just beyond the corruption for political purposes of the process. then he wants the interview notes and text messages from his enemy s list put up in the public so frankly i think that is conspiracy minded surrogates can go through it, and keep searching for the unguarded moment and the unwise word to further stir this pot and delegitimize the ongoing investigation. let s break it up. we are talking about the fisa application for carter page and what they want undockeded is the 20 pages, and we know what the fisa applications were by page, because they were concerned about meetings he was having with russians in russia, and they were concerned about part of his past and connections with the russians.
exercise what if bill clinton called louis freeh, the fbi director to the white house that day and said i want you to investigate how ken starr had a spy in my circle. that would be linda tripp, let s say. and i want you to turn over to congress all of your interview notes from monica lewinsky. can i answer that question for you? yes, please. we republicans would have burned washington to the ground that afternoon. it s so ridiculous. bill clinton would do 1/1000th of what donald trump is doing right now and all republicans would talk about the great constitutional breech that was occurring. take a step back. bill clinton had no use at all for janet reno his attorney general during that period. but at no point do i remember and peter can speak to this were there ever any stories about how he wanted her to actively try to
a look at things. this is what you said you wanted, but are potentially look at the evidence. they decide it can be released in some form or they could to say because everything leaks unfortunately. they make it to see kind of what led them down this road and if there s anything that s more clear to general flynn will know about it. and what does that say about the investigation? dan: the secret service, we didn t interview. we take notes and we type it up later but it wasn t really a formal form at the time. if the fbi has a formal form to summarize that interview. those interview notes with mike flynn were changed to reflect a different opinion, than the opinion of the agents of that room. i wouldn t be surprised if someone or someone in the fbi may be subject themselves to criminal prosecution themselves.
no, it s not true. it wasn t revealed, the partisan funding behind that research. so let s find out. i think what s happened today in part, john, is the seal has been broken on information around this investigation, and now we ll see more. we ll see the mccabe interview notes. we might see the application itself. we certainly should see the schiff report, and i think all that is good for the public. i think even what you just said, you know, he said that certain parts of it were salacious and unverified and that the president had reacted badly to it. so the fact that they sort of misrepresent that straight out of the gate is problematic. they leave out the fact that the washington free beacon was the initial funder. it s true they didn t fund the dossier, but they were funding fusion gps. so when they re complaining about not all the information being given to the court, when they make their case, they re not giving all the information. i think i heard said earlier that andrew mccabe
f.b.i. interview and investigation of general flynn, are there notes from those interviews do you know? number one, i don t know. beyond that i wouldn t want to comment on an ongoing investigation being run by the special counsel. and in a normal circumstance like that would you expect there to be notes in any other case? it is our normal practice to memorialize interviews. do so by notes. it usually gets reflected what is called an f.b.i. 302. how agents go from the process of this spoken conversation to the 302 varies. then there are other settings where it s a different kind of format. when an agent sets someone down for that kind of interview notes would be normal and in most cases would there also be an audio tape recording? i think an audio tape would
