So, fake information, used for partisan purposes. the fbi was happy to use it as a pretext to target trump. you have to wonder, this debate whether the classified information and the fbi and d.o.j. being nervous about that, for national security reasons, well i suspect this is why theyre nervous. this is a type of information that would come out as a result of a transparency initiative by president trump. >> tucker: just to clarify, nervous about damage to their own reputation, youre saying. >> ...

Doesnt that make you nervous, if youre the fbi? >> it ought to. look, theres no good reason for the general counsel of the fbi to be meeting with a top lawyer for the democratic national committee and the hillary clinton campaign. the meeting itself was unusual. and the fact that there was allegedly transfer of information about donald trump and russia. we know the information that generally had been pushed by the clinton operation, was, really, stuff made up by russia intelligence, to mess with...

Satisfied or not satisfied with how much work was done. i think most members of the public assumed going forward that the fbi would do a full investigation including talking to people who could corroborate dr. ford, the failure to do that ought to leave some concern in the minds of all of us and the senators who will vote on this. and so if it is perceived as a figure leaf or some sort of pretext, then i think it could undermine the confirmation of brett kavanaugh and leave a stain on him and th...

Way? >> maybe. it depends on the scope. the president said that is so important is the senate essentially is driving the process. so if its grassley and graham who are setting the parameters of the investigation, that could be done in two days because they only want them to talk to three or four people and be done. if flake and coomb coombs is dr the process, each ends with the person being asked, is there anybody else we should speak to? thats the last question of every even. if names are given...

Goodlatte. there are many sques we have for mr. rosenstein including questions about allegations made against him in a recent news article, about what he suggested that maybe someone should with a err a wire or invoke the 25th amendment. we need to get to the bottom of these very serious claims. say this happens, what are they going to want to know or learn from him? >> i think this is all a pretext. i think they want to learn from him what theyve been trying to get out of the justice department...

Years or a complicated terrorism case. so i think i know some people have been arguing oh, you know, the fbi should take as long as it can. i think that this was an important compromise to let the institutions get back from the brink, not just is the senate, as i said, but many institutions that will benefit from this. so then theyll look at all this evidence. i think this is pretext messages. i may be wrong from their high school. but certainly other evidence that would help. and i think just o...

On. what do you think of that? >> you know, its hard to know how fast the fbi will work but i think this is feasible. just listen, its a limited number of people and limited number of times. this is not a mafia case over 30 years or a complicated terrorism case. so i think i know you know, some people have been arguing you know, the fbi should take as long as it can. i think that this was an important compromise to let the institutions get back from the brink, not just the senate as i said but m...

>> tucker: so if you have been watching the coverage of the kavanaugh nomination overgh the past ten days or so, especially on other channels, but not exclusively, you might have noticed something strange about the coverage.bu repeatedly reporters and on-air analysts havers interjected the question of race in to this story. and that is odd. because this is not a racial story. everyone involved is the same color. and yet again and again, you see people use the story as a pretext for denouncingng ...

Accusations. >> tucker: so if you have been watching the coverage of the kavanaugh nomination over the past ten days or so, especially on other channels, but not exclusively, you might have noticed something strange about the coverage. repeatedly reporters and on-air analysts have interjected the question of race in to this story. that is odd. because this is not a racial story. everyone involved is the same color. and yet again and again you see people use the story as a pretext for denouncing ...

Same as firing bob mueller. it would be viewed by most americans as committing obstruction of justice in plain sight. and the president, we shouldnt be fooled. this "new york times" story where he is now relying relying sources to justify concerns about rod rosenstein, this is the latest pretext for wanting to fire rod rosenstein. hes attacked deputy attorney general rosenstein objen twitte. we should see this investigation to its completion. and no person has delayed the russia investigation mo...
