Gives certain republicans who doesnt want to make this bigger than it is some cover to stay in that camp or the pressure to embrace the memo and embrace president trumps reading of it wins out. >> fascinating to watch that. next time when we have more time i want you to differentiate for me the difference between little by the president, as he referred to adam schiff and little dd as he referred to bob corker. a conversation for another day. >> reporter: well drill down on that, chris. >> we mov...

Evidence that he was a russian spy. so the real question here is why did donald trump put on his campaign a key foreign policy adviser who the fbi was investigating as a russian spy? thats the real question. people ought to be asking. >> so, ned, this is apparently phase one on the part of the republicans. he says theres going to be more releases like this memo that focus on other areas of government. state department. but then if there are more who knows how far this goes. what are the politica...

Implicated. and here its the fbi and department of justice because theyre conducting the investigation would have the paramount say in terms of what might be revealed as to sources as to methods and also as to the ongoing investigation. >> do you have any evidence also that nunes has coordinated with the white house in any way? do you have any evidence of that? is it just him not acknowledging? >> youve been listening to adam schiff whos just announced formally that the house intelligence commit...

Thats not an accident because this is a president and this is a republican congress who has i roaded very purposely the credibility of this institution. >> bill, im going to let you have the last word here. i will say of one survey done by survey monk kick 47% of the people believe there. nearly a majority there. that one, do not trust the fbi at this point. bill, your final thoughts? >> well, my final thoughts, i heard ned just say that he has been told that the dossier was in fact presented to...

The russian investigation. and the role of the fisa courts in all of this. >> id be curious to ask a judge, did you know who paid for this dossier thats being presented to you and would it have made a difference? i think its more looking within the agency, something we have oversight over. they dont have oversight over us. we have oversight over them. thats the way im looking at it. >> joining me now cia net price and former assistant director of the new york office philip admin. as youre both m...

Investigations are conducted day in and day out by agents, men and women, on the street who do these investigations. this particular inquiry investigation or whatever one wants to call it was conducted by the seventh floor of the fbi by jim comey and his inner circle. if it were conducted by street agents there is no doubt in my mind, no doubt at all, there would have been a grand jury empanelled by the united states attorneys office. and subpoenas would have been issued and responsible individu...

People, ned, the fbi is funded by us, the taxpayers. therefore, they need to answer to the people. but are the above criticism from the president? >> absolutely not. look, absolutely not. the fbi nor any other government institution should not be above criticism. as public servants, we should all be held accountable. that includes the fbi. that includes the broader intelligence community. but heres the key, alex. they should not be politicized. the fbi could not be turned into a political weapon...

But i think, clearly, the fbi has also taken that into account. and we can also be sure that any fisa application for carter page did not solely rely on one piece of information and most certainly did not rely solely upon the steele dossier. >> thats a very good point. and lets bring up, if we have, these graphics. the very first paragraph in the first page of the memo says october 21st, 2016, doj and fisa saute probable cause order electronicing surveillance electronics on carter page from the ...
