Theyre punished, to protect our elections, and our president isnt doing that and you have to ask why. what is the reason? what is he afraid of? >> i want to ask you, i have you about this nunes memo, the nunes memo, which is by the chairman of the house intel committee, alleging fbi abuses seen by democrats as very political, an attempt to give president trump cover as hes investigated by the special counsel. but you know your republican colleagues are saying democrats havent read this, even tho...

Memo has met, i would suggest that we release both of them and have this discussion. heres the bottom line, no one is going to be able to dispute the facts laid out in the memo prepared by the intelligent staff. these are not opinions or conclusions, these are facts that are well sourced, no one is going to be able to dispute their veracity and then we get to have a good debate in this country about whether we want political parties weaponizing our own intelligence community against them. >> har...

His text messages came to light last week.y in them he talked about a meeting in andys office. did we find out if that andy is andrew mccabe? n >> we did not find out. we have andrew mccabe before the judiciary committee tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. that also will be behind closed doors.t its obvious it is mccabe. this is the circle of people directly involved in the hillary clinton email scandal, that migrated over i trump investigation. i think as a consequence of their bias. thats one or the other....

>> yeah, one thing in my new book thats not generally known is he did a few reports. not just the trump dossier. after 2014, which was kind of well received by u.s. intelligence and sent all the way out to john reed. what i understand from talking to his friends, the sources behind the ukraine reports were the same sources behind the dossier, in other words, their sources were right and kind of proven in other areas, his friends say. ive asked and they say he is professional. he is credible. >> ...

Him. does he defend the dossiers accuracy? >> yes, what his associates say, he believes its between 70 and 90% accurate. in other words, no intelligence document is perfect. humans are flawed. they get things wrong, sources make mistakes, this is the intelligence, and what he was trying to do is send out these questions and got hair-raising replies from his sources about collaboration between trump people and russians, some of them intelligence people and say he forwarded this to the fbi and hop...

Over that special counsel and mr. mueller. each of those are pretty special factual situations. and we will use the proper standards. thats the only thing i can tell you, mr. jordan. >> i appreciate that. >> you can have your ideas, but sometimes we have to study what the facts are and to evaluate whether it meets a standard -- >> so let me ask you this. we know one fact. we know the committee paid for. and it sure looks like the fbi was paying the author of that document and it sure looks like ...

Journal every day has a higher degree of reliability probably than this. but this unsubstantiated, raw intelligence. the fact hes there for ten hours has more to do with the guys asking him questions than what he has to say. i think having the american public look at the intelligence stuff that isnt vetted, you know, they should decide about what should be released. it shouldnt be released wholesale. >> well, i mean it -- listen, i think that ship has sailed. i think thats what -- why the white ...

Phony pacts, period, too bad, exclamation point. james clapper realized he had to make a call looks like these leaks are eminating from the intelligence community because those were the unnamed sources that cnn named. so sean, seems to be a problem there, correct? and he is acknowledging that by picking up the phone, that right? >> well, i think he just wanted to be very clear this document that was circulated by buzzfeed and others, that attempted to look like a an intelligence document was in ...

Hands. who knows how it looked. but the truth is, this is not an intelligence document. this is not a document produced by any of american intelligence. this is a document apparently produced by a retired agent somewhere in the world, which by the way there are tens of thousands of these folks, that hung a shingle out and gets paid by people to put these reports together. looks like something the next eye ian fleming draft fiction novel. certainly isnt true. we know that. ainsley: the material i...

That i saw these salacious details, and you know which ones im talking about, and these secret meetings, was last night. >> so the two-page summary was different? >> i cant -- >> did it not cover this ground? >> i cant -- i cant -- >> you know i cant get into that. what i can tell you is its based on garbage. its total crap. >> just for our viewers, you cant get into that, why? >> because its classified information. honestly, i cant even verify whether there is -- i cant even verify whether the ...
