Such evidence? >> i have talked about terms and conditions. the main thing is to make it public. we dont want to do any more in secret, clandestinely where the public cannot see whats going on and where the commission, which to me is a witch hunt, getting out there and leaks bits and pieces in order to further a political agenda that may not have anything to do with the truth. if you want to do something with this witch hunt committee, make it public where the public can see whats going on and s...

Argument that this impeachment inquiry is the same as an impeachment? heather: how can you handed to the intel committee when the intel committee is making the very charges? heather: it does have the ability to investigate generally. did they have the ability to call witnesses and subpoena documents? they did but it is disingenuous to go before the american people as a listening inquiry when they should have called it to a vote to get these representatives publicly. shannon: they know the americ...

They got to decide on the front and which ones we on the benghazi committee and the government got to see and which ones are personal in nature. completely different standards come a completely different treatment. as i talk to constituents, particularly in the fourth district of ohio, they are troubled by this double standard that exists. certainly i think its obvious in how these individuals were handled. >> harris: again, its a topic for both sides of the political aisle. because it really ha...

Words. delays, distract, disrupt. the investigation isnt going well for them. the first public meeting was an unmitigated disaster, so thats why they canceled the second public meeting, throwing as many road blocks in our way so the american public cannot find out exactly whats taking place. >> do the democrats want susan rice to testify? >> listen, if the republicans want someone to testify, thats fine. we wont stand in the way. as long as they dont stand in the way of who wed like to testify. ...

To raise other issues to create a cloud through which the public cannot see whats at stake here. and whats at stake here is a foreign intervention in our election, very serious issue about whether u.s. persons were involved. investigation is being conducted by the fbi into possible coordination with the trump campaign. that is really, i think, among the most serious business the country has to do right now. and the white house seems to be doing everything it can to point in other direction anz s...

>> well, first of all, i cant talk about as i mentioned the contents of any documents. so at this point, i cant say whether anything was masked or unmasked improperly. i can say this. in the ordinary course of what we do as an oversight committee, we look at exactly these issues. if the white house had any concern about whether minute maization was used properly or how it was handled, that is material that should be given to us in the ordinary course of affairs. it doesnt need to be done, you kn...

This situation, dont have access to details as you imagine the defense attorney in this case would. if you were defending this officer and know what we know and have seen this dash cam, how would you defend him? >> the case always exploits gaps. defense always says the gaps really reflect the threat the police officer was under. theyll try to argue this man assaulted him. when he took off, it was not someone simply stopped for a damaged taillight. this man actually assaulted a police officer whi...
