Times. . his initial fs 86 did not mention any foreign contacts. updated it in the spring with some 100 foreign meetings but did not crucially mention the june 2016 meeting in trump tower with the russian lawyer offering damaging information on hillary clinton. he then updated it again. there was some further omitted information. i suppose the question is if phil or i or you applied for a clearance had those preeted emissio repeated omissions we would get a clearance? >> i dont know. obstacles l...

We are beginning to get a look at the democratic memo in response to the nunes memo. she has no information. >> a handful of final points. number one, ive been through the democrat rebuttal memo now. i will go through it again. it is important to note what is not here. but the omissions are. in this particular case, the republicans found that the former fbi deputy director, andrew mccabe, testified under oath in december 2017 that they would never have thought the surveillance warrant for carter...

Person to plead guilty in the special counsel investigation. how are republicans going to interpret all of this? does this ultimately reflect on the president and the way they see him? >> absolutely. i mean, the president said he is surrounding himself with the best people. his best people are getting indicted left and right. i also want to point out that jared kushner is the analog to paul manafort. and the reason is jared kushner is financially compromised. thats why he cant get a security cle...

Obstacles. in the house, republican leaders have attached it to a controversial concealed carry reciprocity bill that has no chance of getting 60 votes senate. those are the sorts of games that are being played. when that happens, its hard to see -- it is not difficult to see why even very popular issues, very popular causes fail to pass. as i mentioned, the mentality that today you do fix nics or background checks. ban bump stocks. then tomorrow a slippery slope to repealing the second amendmen...

Some of these things the chief of the staff had taken action on months ago. there are -- these are steps that will apply to all white house informations. >> again, we dont know the exact number of individuals, but were lead to believe its somewhere between 10 and 30 who are at risk of losing their interim clearance. one person that is not at risk of losing interim clearance is jared kushner. we understand because he had to amend his sf-86 application form for security clearance a number of times...

Communications. the information lays out what was not true. its confusing when you read this information because they describe what the untrue statement was. its sort of reverse cyclisoyco. when you look at that untrue statement it means i passed it off, just talking about family. waver those omissions were, they must have been pretty serious information to warrant a section 10 oo1 statement charge. >> danny thank you. kand lain ya thank you. i want to keep ned and our panel around here for a se...

Opponent, navalny and government of ukraine and his support of assad. putin deliberately used it as a geographic end point, a discoverable element of this operation so that he could soil our democratic process further. when its linked to russia, even though some of this operation was a little bit clandestine, where u.s. identities were stolen, at the end of the day this leads back to russia, just like lots of other things have. >> its interesting, danny, considering the connection that some of t...

Secret of their own? we already saw a speechwriter leave also for domestic violence. 130 people is a lot. and ten of the assistants to the president is very unusual to me. we should get to the box it quicking. > do you think that you can get to the bottom of it? this is a very sensitive kind of process, not something that people will be forthcoming about whats going on. >> no, but in the case of mr. porter, im not sure theres a reason we shouldnt know what he said to the fbi, whether he made mat...

Down this road with the same an vigor he applied to the handling of classified information by hillary clinton and then as secretary of state. i mean, this is really the key question right now. hose is down there handling our countrys top secrets with a secret of their own? we already saw a speechwriter leave also for domestic violence. 130 people is a lot. and ten of the assistants to the president is very unusual to me. we should get to the box it quicking. > do you think that you can get to th...

Republicans in congress, including the devin nunes memo, which we know the fbi director objected, asked the president not to make it public, the president did declassify it and make it public. now the fbi director yesterday could have said, asked and answered, we were on the record about that a week ago, but instead he offered this. >> we had then and continue to have now grave concerns about the accuracy of the memorandum because of omissions. we provided thousands of documents that were very s...
