next up, mr. barr, you get this job you need to look into the theft and leaking of government documents. jim comey obviously committed a serious crime when he intentionally leaked his fbi memos about his conversations with the president. it s important to also look at abuse of power changes that would be comey, mccabe, strzok, all fired, lisa engage. bruce orh should have been deported twice. disagree with politically all trying to get hillary clinton elected and then having an insurance policy, and a media leak strategy if, in fact, donald trump did win. let s not forget about lying to the fbi. after all, this crime shouldn t only apply an american war hero like general flynn and trump campaign staff like george.
pioneered by j. edgar hoover. remember hoover served as fbi director for decades and became infamous for aggressive investigation into americans who he suspected had ties to the soviet union. hoover even suspected fdr s vice president henry wallace to be a lengthy probe and surveillance simply because hoover disagreed with wallace s policy. the fbi should never be in the business of investigating political differences or policy decisions. it shouldn t be, well, lashing out because of personal opinions that they have. the role of the fbi which is the 99% of field agents of rank and file they do their jobs and investigate crimes and criminals. not politics, not policy and especially nowft launching a counterintelligence investigation into a duly elected put with zero evidence because you don t like him. today william barr, president trump s pick to be
sean: all right now as senate lawmakers grill the ag nominee william barr, we are learning more about the deep state and the abuses he will be cob fronting when confirmed. for example, according to reporting from our own catherine herridge, former top fbi lawyer james baker, this is under comey, is the subject now of a criminal investigation into illegal leaks to the media. this also growing evidence of the deep anti-trump bias among senior fbi officials. now, with devin nunes from the house intel committee revealing that the bureau s leaders, goat: had no real evidence against the trump team but launched an investigation anyway following the comey firing. joining us now for reaction is the congressman himself congressman devin nunes, when i hear that, what i m hearing is that is a revenge investigation but it had already gone on for nine months. immediately after they exonerate you had hillary, with no investigation, they
election. and as we now know they had an emergency policy and a media leak strategy in case clinton didn t win 100 million to zero. after comey was fired top officials inside out fbi were angry. they acted out of that anger, malice emotion without any evidence, no probable cause or reasonable suspicion and ended up what was a partisan investigation into the president of the united states with a wild conspiracy accusing the president of working with vladimir putin to fire comey because russia told him to do it. no evidence they were angry. this was their punishment. this was their pay back abusing power to attack the president that they never want elected. this brings us tonight to a hannity history lesson. green greenwald recently pointed out that the fbi in their investigation into donald trump used eerily similar tactics to those
us it? i. believe she got away with this. they were out to get trump. they say to themselves and they are out to help her. so i want him to do more than mr. horowitz did. explain to the country how it got so bad. i want him to tell us what happened with the fisa warrant application process. how could it get so off base. if there was a counterintelligence investigation of the president of the united states, i want him to tell us how it started, who started it. i want him to clean up this mess. i m not expecting him to throw mueller over. but i am expecting him to clean it up the mess at the department of justice and the in fbi and i this the president picked the right guy to do it? we now know for a fact that russian lies were used. yes. sean: also an investigation into hillary was rig you had. favorite candidate over another can date. right. a strategy if that failed.
