Surveillance powers. President trump today indicating hes inclined to release it. Its going to be released soon dv. David right now Alan Dershowitz says that the americans deserve transparency. The white house refusing reports that chief john kelly is willing to resign. We take it up with mr. Ed rollins and our top story. The effort to expose corruption in the obama era fbi and Justice Department. Devin nunez is seeking transcript to find out what the fbi said in order to get a surveillance warrant to spy on former trump aide carter page. The house intel mem ro released last friday showed that the discredited trump dossier was used to sur cure the surveillance warrant for page and the government omitted Key Information about its political funding by the dnc and Clinton Campaign. Tonight were waiting for the democratic release of the memo rebutting the allegations. If white house releasing a statement saying that the President Trump met with the fbi director as well as the White House Counsels Office to get their input on the democratic memo, adding, the president is weighing his options and will respond soon. The next guest say the evidence is in. Obama leaders of the fbi and doj willfully abused their power in order to spy on political opponents. Joining me now, congressman andy biggs. Congressman biggs, one of the key components of that fisa warrant clearly was the trump dossier. The trump dossier came from mr. Steele, who may have just been passing information from the dnc and then passing that on to the fisa court. But why was it that senate warn warner was so anxious to meet secretly with mr. Steele in february of 2017 . Well we dont really know because he hasnt really said. I can tell you what it looks like. It looks like he was trying to get some juicy gossip, di tidbis or something. Lets not create a paper trail, lets meet out of the country, lets make sure nobody else knows whats going on. It was inartfully done because we do have the email trail and apparently the senate knew about it several months ago. But we didnt. And its just now coming out. So it looks funny. It looks odd and it looks you know, you could deduce a level of intention there if you look at it. David well you mentioned that some of his Republican Senate colleagues didnt know about his attempts. But as far as i can tell, it seemed to be months later or at least a month later while he was saying that talking by the way interestingly to a lawyer working for a russian ol la backer whilolalla backer. During that initial exchange of emails, i dont believe he was alerting his republican colleagues to the senate. Was he in. No. Thats true. It doesnt look like he was letting anybody in on it. And not quite frankly not until maybe some people got suspicious. This looks like a cold war spy who came in from the cold type of thing. Youre looking for was there drop locations for secret materials. Its just so bizarre, quite frankly, what we see going on. And it looks really bad, at least looks really bad. I think were all trying to figure out does it tie into the use of the dossier for the fisa warrants and does it, you know, tie into the dnc, does it tie into Hillary Clintons campaign. This is just you know, david, i think you can appreciate that. It seems like every couple of days some big shoe drops. David yeah, i know. And its somehow connected to Something Else. David we dont see many shoes coming from the mueller investigation. But from this investigation, there are quite a few shoes dropping. And for those of us old enough to remember the cold war era, im reminded that were disinformation. Thats information that the russians used to put out to cry try to discredit people to various agencies including by the way, the fbi. Absolutely. Its outrageous but thats how badly they wanted to keep power. And this is what is so bad about this, is that we are constitutional republic. Were built on representation. We should have transparency and openness. Were not talking dirty tricks, watergate, that was a petty burglary to find out some records. Were talking here trying to scuttle an entire Political Campaign and election david by using one of the most say credit courts in the land. The fisa court is the one court that allows our spying agencies, whether its domestic spy or International Spy to spy on americans. If that is abused, it goes to the core of what keeps us safe from the government turning tail on the people. Exactly. It turns into a star chamber where theyre conducting investigations based on little or no evidence. It allows the perception of manipulation for political reasons to spy on political opponents. Thats what it looks like happened here and thats what all of the evidence is pointing to. I dont dispute that. I think thats what happened exactly. David i got to ask one more question even though theyre giving me a wrap here, we know were beginning to find out the frightening detames of how this was used, the fisa court was used for political purposes. Im wondering if youve suspected if this was kind of a matter of course. If this had been done before i think of all of the unmasking that was done by the Obama Administration right before the change of power, some of it happened after the election but before donald trump took over as president. All of that unmasking, is it just coins dental that it happenecoincidental that ithappe election . I dont think it is coincidental. Get as much as you can unmasked. Get as much as you can right now. People think its data and phone numbers. Its far more than data and phone numbers. Theres a lot of information that goes with unmasking. I think its an abusive pattern. We see in the Obama Administration. I would like to know how far back it goes, how deep it goes, and the American People want to know that as well. David i want to know that as well. Good to see you, sir. Were coming right back with much more. Please stay with us exposing the deep state. Republicans in the House Intel Committee demanding answers from the fisa court about the unverified antitrump dossier. We never want to live in a country where cash at a Political Party is co convertibe into a government sponsored warrant to spy on your political enemies. Well take that up with ed rollins.

The number three official at the Justice Department is stepping down after nine months on the jab. Rachel brand was next in line but she is now taking a job as a walmart executive. Growing questions tonight about john kellys future as white house chief of staff following reports about when he first learned of the rob porter allegations. Reporting that the president has privately floated three potential replacements for kelly, omb director Mick Mulvaney and businessman tom barrett. The white house denies that kelly has offered his resignation. Kevin cork has our report. He did a very good job when he was in the white house and we hope he has a wonderful career and hopefully hell have a great career ahead of him. The president s comments about rob porter didnt quell the controversy. If anything, he may have ignited a new one. As you probably know, he says hes innocent and i think you have to remember that. He said very strongly yesterday that hes innocent. So youll have to talk to him about that. Despite porters repeated red denials and questions about when the white house learned about the scope of the allegations, saying the retired marine general was quote enabler of Domestic Violence. White House Counsel knew about the allegations involving porter for months. The Washington Post said mcgann first learned of the allegations in january. In june the fbi warned the white house about them. In september the news finally reached kelly but porter stayed on the job until photos of the alleged abuse surfaced this week. No question they could have handled it better. Checks and balances which should have been in place have failed. The public reports say that multiple people in the building were made aware of this. Kelly wrote an email to staff that read in part, i want you to know that we all take matters of Domestic Violence seriously. Domestic violence is abhor rent and has no place in our society. Its not the first time kelly has found himself at the center of a white house controversy. During an interview with brett baier, he suggested that the president was evading on the wall. He said that some undocumented immigrants were too lazy to sign up for daca and wrongfully accused of Florida Congress month of grand standing at a building dedication in 2015. I dont think im being fired today and am not so frustrated in this job that im thinking of leaving. That was kelly back in october and while he didnt step down then, new questions about his handling of the abuse allegations could cost him his job now. David kevin cork reporting there. Joining me now is ed rol rollin, fox business political analyst. Your insphingses, ed. Is general kelly going to resign . My instincts is that general kelly didnt show good political judgment. I think hes done a superb job of straightening the white house out. But this is something they knew months ago. You dont beat wives. I served in three administrations, two white houses. I was responsible for the political clearances. The moment i heard Something Like this on anybody, they would be gone. David you mentioned he streamlined the white house. And more efficient. David its more efficient. But is it something that a new chief of staff could pick up on and carry on in a way similar to what he has done . Well it depends on the president. What hes been able to do is a be a Strong Enough figure to keep all of the crop from going in to see the president. Which is also what the staff secretary, a very important job because they control the paper flow. A new chief of staff obviously should pick it up and not have the distension that you had in previous days. Theres no guarantee that it happens. What does the president want . The reality is the moment this came on the radar screen with all of the controversy about women and everything thats going on, 200,000 women marching in the streets, concerned about the stuff that weinstein and everybody else did. The moment that was on the radar screen, someone should have said weve got a serious problem here. Weve got a guy who cant get cleared because he battered two wives. David if indeed he resigns and his resignation is acceptedded, the next person is going t to he to have better political radar. I look at the lineup of the potential nominees and one of them is Mick Mulvaney. Hes got great political skills but hes very much needed by the president as director of omb. Hes got a big job right now. And barrett is the guy who recommended paul manafort. His judgment is not good. Mccarthy plays number two guy in the white house. We need him there. You need to stay with what you have and make sure that general kelly is a little more politically sensitive. David ed on this friday before i let you go, i want to talk to you about this fisa information. The fisa courts were set up in light of the nixon era right after watergate to prevent spying on american citizens to add extra layer to prevent any kind of spying on american citizens but it looks like its become a tool, a political tool. Unfortunately they did that. The fisa judges appointed by the chief justice of the Supreme Court are important judges and they take the fbi and these people at their word. Theres a strict code you have to present to get the wiretapping and obviously its been violated. If i were sitting on that court today i would be awfully suspect of anything at the Justice Department. David and could this have been a pattern of behavior for the previous administration, using fisa warrant to spy on people . The last administration did not play by a lot of preuls. And at the end of the day they all thought that mrs. Clinton was going to be the next president of the states and what ever it took to get her there they were going to do. You have to abide by the rules and they didnt do that. David be sure to vote in tonights poll.

David well President Trump signed the congressional budget deal into law bright and early this morning. Ending a brief overnight shutdown. Thats all it amounted to. His signature came with twitter commentary. The president wrote, without more republicans in congress we were forced to increase spending on things we do not like or want in order to finally, after many years of depletion, take care of our military. Sadly we needed some democratic votes for passage. Must elect more republicans in 2018 election. Joining me now is matt slap, chairman of the american conservative union. Matt, the story of the hour, the minute is the future of general kelly. What are you hearing . You know, obviously theres a lot of rumors swirling. It was a rough week. This whole question about the staff secretary, rob porter and the kornlings against him. Clearly a lot of people feel like the statements that came out of the white house, including one from general kelly, you know, werent sensitive enough to the fact that if the charges are true, at least the topic even if the charges are untrue, the topic itself is one that is serious and sober. And i know the general takes quite seriously. I think that was a lot of legislative accomplishments along the way. But for the white house staff it was a tough one. David although some people would say that the budget deal is less than an accomplishment. Its growing government more. Even the president said that. Let me move if i can. I would say the same thing, in all candor. David im sure you would. Senator mark warner is in his own little hornets nest now. The question of why it was that he wanted thi
