>> the white house breaking even more news. now saying that theyre going to try to revoke the security clearances for a number of high-profile people in positions of intelligence, including former cia director john brennan, former fbi director james comey, former dni clapper, former nsa susan rice, former deputy director to the fbi, andrew mccabe. what are those names all have in common except for rice really because shes kind of the outlier on that, they have been critical of the president. wel...

Presidents policies and practices. in this case doesnt it look almost exactly the same by taking these series of -- and michael is right, it doesnt change anything. they cant talk about secret or classified information no matter what, whether they currently got a security clearance or he revokes it and they dont. to me it just sort of smacks of retaliation. >> brennan, clapper and comey have been pretty public. michael, susan rice hasnt been all that public. shes asked about trumps motivations a...

Point the damage thats being done and what steps can be done the correct it. the president himself sees nothing wrong here. no problem. hes standing on the stage with putin. hes a happy camper. hes my boy. im hanging out with him and all is right in the world. my intelligence community, dni clapper and others they are wrong. putin is right. everybody else is wrong. expecting the tweets from focus from afar will probably continue, but its not going to amount to much because no one is going to go ...

Is very, very accurate. its hard to calculate at this point the damage thats being done and what steps can be done the correct it. the president himself sees nothing wrong here. no problem. hes standing on the stage with putin. hes a happy camper. hes my boy. im hanging out with him and all is right in the world. my intelligence community, dni clapper and others they are wrong. putin is right. everybody else is wrong. expecting the tweets from focus from afar will probably continue, but its not ...

The "boston herald." michael. go ahead and get angry if today made you angry, but what does your party need to do now? >> at this point theres not much they can do. lets be serious. the you will this waiting and expectation that republicans are finally going corral this crazy is just overblown. its overdone at this point. its not really going happen. its bake in the right now in many regards. thats the problem. i think what senator mccain said is very, very accurate. its hard to calculate at thi...

Is going for a one-on-one meeting with no witnesses. we saw this in the oval office, when the president had foreign minister lavrov of russia actually come into the meeting. there was no u.s. presence in terms of the media and we heard the narrative of the russian state first. the only real note-taking and accountability was from the russian media. this is a damaging and damning scenario coming up for the united states, particularly as we saw the senate intel committee roll out their report last...

Since president trump had reinvigorate thad pardon power i thought most men what they thought of the decorated war hero receiving a pardon himself former dni clapper would not comment. senator cornyn thought it was a very good idea. and so do i. president trump has taken a lot of criticism and praise for his more liberal use of the pardon power. he has certainly departed from past presidents practice in this area where going out the door pardons. bill clinton pardons rich who had stayed outside ...

>> some of that is classified. i heard the bit by former dni clapper. and i agree it started out as a campaign to create chaos and pour acid on every wound of politics to divide people. it came clear that donald trump had a chance to win, then you saw more efforts for russians to intervene and be helpful. part of that is dumping the clinton campaign e-mails. >> do you believe the cia got it wrong? the fbi got it wrong? the dni got it wrong? >> no. i believe their intelligence agencies. thing the...

Is that true? >> and i respect my colleague congressman stewart, but i wholeheartedly disagree. this was a take their word for it investigation that simply went through the motions. this was like bringing in a suspect that you suspect of arson or something else, asking them, did you start the fire? they say, i didnt start any fire. and you say, oh, great. go ahead and go home. thats what this was. >> the other thing that congressman stewart says is that the u.s. intelligence assessment from the ...
