While he once stood with the head of the fbi pointing to plans for taking down the mob, he now seems to equate parts of the russia probe to the work of nazi stormtroopers. >> this is a completely tainted investigation. >> reporter: never mind that fired fbi director james comey says the trump team operates like a crime family. >> all focused on what is best for the boss, loyalty to the boss, and not connected to any of the ethical values outside of the boss. >> reporter: giulianis take -- >> i k...

Welcome to the program. glad to have you all here. this is now the third justification that we have heard for james comeys firing. first the president said comey was fired over his handling of the clinton e-mail investigation. pointing to a letter justifying that it was written by rod rosenstein. then the president said this in his interview with lester holt. >> regardless of recommendation, i was going to fire comey knowing there was no good time to do it. and, in fact, when i decided to just d...

>> he said it was coordinated carefully. you wont see daylight between me and the president. pointing to trumps tweets in support of what he had said. giuliani was brought on board the legal team to publicize trumps message that he had not been treated fairly. hillary clinton had received better treatment from investigators. and james comey should not be believed. he was also tasked with negotiating with the special councils team over a possible interview with the president. giuliani up ended th...

The fringe into what the president insists should happen. maybe theyll try it. maybe this is what theyll do against rosenstein. its worth pointing out one of the things they want to impeach rosenstein for is him signing off on the fisa warrant against carter page, surveillance warrant against carter page, a trump campaign foreign policy adviser. and he really was actually caught up in a russian spy ring in new york city, one that resulted in espionage charges and a russian spy going to federal p...
