not by order of the president of the united states. that can t be by somebody. not by the president. somebody in his administration. i don t know. he s either you should investigation or under medicated. i don t know which is worse for him. to think that our president is nuts waiting for his fillings to tell him the latest thing from the cia or if he s co-opted by a foreign power that hacked our election. you re saying that you re now willing to say oh, maybe it was just somebody in the justice department? i said at the time, the president of the united states whomever that may be is responsible for the actions in their administration. that s the way it worked for reagan. that s the way it worked for bill clinton. he was making allegations that the former president ordered wiretapping. the administration. that s not what he said. you re getting to be too literal. i think shouldn t we all take the president of the united states literally? we should have an unde
that said something about wiret wiretapping. the white house is saying if the new york times is printing that, what s going on? it s kind of a circular firing squad right now. you re right. we have to wait for evidence and our oversight busy will get it right. early saturday morning he said, i bet a good lawyer could make a good case out of the fact used the word fact president obama was tapping my phones in october just prior to the election. that was the flat statement that the president made in that tweet. no one, including anyone at the white house or executive branch agency or in congress has any evidence to back that up. let me repeat the question. if no evidence shows up, what s your conclusion? it kind of speaks for itself. i think they re going to he usually doesn t go out that far out on a limb. i think they will find a little
getting wrong here. the trump organization was re renting space on some other company s server farm. what we re looking at here is whether or not this rrp bank sent any russian bank sent any communication to that server. all we know is they looked up the contact. if i looked up your number 2,800 times, was i trying to call you? we don t know and what they re trying to figure out. thanks very much. another issue certain to come up at this hour is the press house bri briefing, president trump s still unsubstantiated wiret wiretapping claims. asking the ranking member of the house intelligence committee whether they ve seen anything to back up the president s accusati accusations. is there any evidence to substantiate what he s been s saying about president obama y spying on him? i haven t seen any evidence
@president trump continues to push his wiretap narrative. he said the president wants congress to investigate. he said he doesn t think this president picked up the phone and asked his own fbi director whether or not it is true. has the president spoken about the allegations he made saturday morning and does he have confidence in his fbi? i am almost 100% certain he has not. does he have confidence in his director? there is nothing that would leave me to believe it is anything than it was prior. i am joined by hallie jackson. he doesn t need an investigation. he can call on his fbi director and said did you do any wiret wiretapping on the subject of him. he didn t want to do it because he knows it is all nonsense. your thoughts? reporter: i can tell you what
night. when he talked about wiretapping, he meant surveillance and there is incident that occurred. devin nunez could have stated more beautifully. you chose not to cover that part. you chose when others went out. hold on i understand that jonathan. where was your passion and concern when there is they said there is no connection from them. at the end of the day no, hold on, i am making a point. the point is this, number one, it is interesting how when evidence comes out and people briefed on the russia connection comes out saying there is nothing they have seen, you choose not to cover that and you don t stop the narrative. when he came out yesterday and said i see no evidence of this happening. i think it is possible. we should know later. you don t cover that part. you cover the part, well, lets go through what we do know. hold on, hold on i am trying
