Do with Ongoing Investigation of russia and possible obstruction of justice. The other item appears to fit a patternment another alleged instance in which President Trump tried to asscertain or obtain the loyalty of the top official of justice, we are talking about rosenstein in this case. The new reporting according to our sources that shortly before rosensteins testimony, the president asked him, are you on my team. This is after asking mccabe and james comey for his loyalty. Well have more on both of the stories tonight. We want to begin with the deal of the investigation and the people running it and the latest socalled nunes memo memo. The fbi and Christopher Wray now publicly releasing it and addressing security issues. The white house intends to get the memo out one way or another. The president was caught on an open mic saying the chances of it being released are 100 . Dont worry. 100 . Can you imagine that . 100 . That was last night. The fourpage memory row alleges that the fbi viewed of surveillance act by using the socalled steel dossier of carter page. For days republicans have been saying that Christopher Wray was shown the memo and had no problems with it. Basically, he signed off on it. Here is what one republican congressman said on this broadcast two nielghts ago. The fbi director has seen our memo and it was only four pages so he can read that readily and come up with an opinion along with his top advisers and Legal Counsel and as i said, there were no issues factually raised with the content or with our memo. Okay, so he said no issues raised with the content of the memo. A lot of republicans on the hill said the same thing. It was a talking point of theirs for days. Here is what the bureau really think about this memo. Quote, the fbi was provided a limited opportunity to review this memo. As expressed during our initial review, we have grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact memos accuracy. Those certainly seems like issues with the content thrust of the memo. The fbi says these concerns were addressed during the initial reviews. All of those republican talking points about the fbi director having no problem with it does not seem to be true or the fbi is lying. Someone is not telling the whole truth here. Before, Christopher Wray showed the memo, steven boyd, also raised concerns. The department of justice said they would like to review it and so as the fbi. John mclaughlin served both the democrats and republicans president , had this to say. If the nunes memo is about four pages, it is a careful pick bowl of cherries. A real debate needs both. Someone fears that. Now, keep in mind there is ample reporting of a number of factor and not just the socalled dossier, the white house and supporters of the president have been saying repeatedly the fbi and the Justice Department are all tainted and this dossier is a big part of it. Does those white house talking point sounds like the nunes memo . Did the white house consults on republicans of the hill who raise this memo. Quigley says was any of this done during conversations or consultations of anyone in the white house. No nunes says as far as i no, no. Mr. Chairman, does none of the Staff Members had any cons consultations or communications at all with the white house. Chairman nunes did not answer o nor sarah sanders. Did devin nunes worked with anybody in the white house. He worked with the white house before when it comes to intelligence and russia investigation. Look, we have certainly coordinated with members of congress as it is appropriate as to specifics on this, i dont know the answer. I am not aware of any conversations or coordinations with congressman nunes. Shes not aware of any coordinations or conversations. The congress is to oversee the white house and not collaborate on some of the National Security questions possible. It would be crazy thinking this would be possible, right . Sadly, it is not so hard to imagine, in fact, it has happened and it happened with devin nunes. Lets go back to march 22nd of last year. What i read seems some levels of surveillance activities and perhaps legal but i dont know if it is right or the American People would be comfortable with what i have read. So thats congressman nunes last march having just rushed to the white house to brief the president on these allegedly disturbing details that he just learned of the alleged improper of unmasking scale of the target. There is a technical term for the process. It was a crock. Here is sean spicer being asked about it the next day. Chairman nunes today refused to will you rule out that the white house or anyone in the Trump Administration gave chairman nunes that information. I dont know if we briefed the president or not. I dont know if that makes sense. I did not sit on that briefing. I dont know why he would travel and brief the speerk aaker and down that well brief him on. I am note aware of it. I am not sure what his smell test was but the stink was quite real. As we learned a few days later, thats exactly what happened. Here is the headline on march 27th. Fast forward, now to this. This time nunes is not saying whether his staffers collaborated with the memo at the white house. His office put out a statement, having Stonewall Congress demands for information for nearly a year, it is no surprise to to see fbi and doj issue. The one thing they all have in common is theyre all involved in investigating the president and under suspicion by the president for not doing his personal bidding. Well have more on this and possible redaction. Cnns Andrew Acosta is joining us now. Although we should point out this source is telling us redaction is are likely to be made. That redactions will be made to this memo and at this point would be released. We could caution our viewers, the president has not received the final recommendation from his staff. This source, get this, this source says a final decision has not been made as of right now in terms of releasing that memo even though the president says it was a 100 deal at the state of the union last night. You tried to ask the president about the memo, how did it go . The white house really clamped down on responding at all and as a fmatter of feedbac, they did not responded to the fbis statement tonight. We tried to ask but essentially they shot us down. Here is what happened. Thank you all so much. Mr. President , any response to the fbi saying in that statement that the nunes memo should not be released. All right, we are leaving. Lets go. There you go. I think one of the staffers tried to tug on my jacket to get met out the door. As you saw the president did not want to comment and obvio obviousobviou obviously this puts him in a difficult spot. His hand pick choice to leave the fbi recommending this memo is not released. It appears the white house is going to try to meet the fbi half way and recommend some redactions. It is not clear whether satisfy the fbi. Look, chris wray saw it and clearly wray has objections to this. We saw that from the letter and department of justice days before wray was given the chance to see this. They said it would be a big mistake. Thats right, not only raising objections and releasing to the public. It is not everyday that the fbi would put out a statement. This is a rare Public Statement saying mr. President , dont do this. Thats why you are seeing of what is a constitutional clash thats going on inside the administration or at least a clash between the white house and the National Security community because there are people concerned inside the fbi of sources and methods being revealed in all of this, which is why i think the white house is talking about this redaction. The white house appears to be going with these political demands inside the conservative base with their party and along with paul ryan and saying they want this memo out. Make no mistake, this is something that could haunt this white house in the months to come if, you know, if it turns out somehow the release of this memo damages the Russian Investigation where people inside the bureau feels like they cannot do their jobs. Jim acosta. Mike quigley as you saw squared off on devin nunes, you said when uconn frontyou confro. His mannerism led you to believe he was not being candid, can you describe it how so . Let me add to that, my first year of watching chairman nunes of his run to the white house, i have also witnessed his unwillingness to sign subpoenas for key witnesses. I think there is a long history leading up to questioning. It is hard to read in the transcript mannerism, thats why jury dont read transcripts. I think if there is audio and video combined, we can see hes ruffled and not wanting to answer questions. The totality of skicircumstance led me to believe that he was being truthful. We saw sarah sanders, i dont know, i dont have the answer to that. Do you believe chairman nunes or his staff was in fact working with the white house. Whats next . Is there anything trying to do to prove that . Well, we have to look at the totality here. Also in the transcript, i pressed the chairman about having the intelligence agencies brief congress on this or at least tell us what their concerns are and check these memos. He said i am not going to have them contest before us. We are investigating them. It is another example of the chairmans unilateral stealth attempt to break all the rule and the tradition and the customs. Hes with a few staff that i think acting as an agent of the white house and has through the entire of the year. All i can do is ask the right questions and make sure the American Public know whats going on. This is the president of the United States acting to defend himself legally and politically at the disfenpense of your natil security and complicit in that is the fbi and chairman nunes. Would they want to answer questions in front of them . Absolutely. Our memo released at the same time. At the business meeting, we are talking about that transcript, they voted against that on party lines. They did not want anybody to come here and brief the entire congress or executive sessions. They did not want anybody to have a longterm to review or critique it or a chance for redaction. It is clear they wanted this out and transparency on a one sided bases. They did it with a phleflimsy m. I was a little harsh as a former pro professor. I describe it as a report written with two red bulls under their belts and they have not read the book. In nunes statement says top officials using unverified court documents. Have you seen any evidence to support that claim. Nunes himself to your point and i talked to adam schiff about this and he has not seen the under lining evidence. This investigation began independently of the steel dossier, thats an important statement as i can make. If the minority memo is released in the public or at least congress is allowed to read that, it is a more scholarly report with actual footnotes which will point by point, i believe it will bolster the integrity of the entire investigation. This is a rush to action. It is not a return to judge t s this. It is a delivered attempt to judge and totality of circumstances. We like to see this where members of congress are allowed to do this but instead we rushed materials which is a lie and misleading and it is inappropriate and it hurts our National Security, putting us all in an extraordinary position, destroying the trust and relationship thats critical in keeping us safe between the intelligence agencies and congress. Let me repeat that, you are saying that you can say with complete accuracies that these so called steel dossier was not the basis for the application . What i am saying is this investigation that began as as Counter Intelligence investigation began independently of the steel dossi dossier. Congressman quigley, appreciate your time tonight. Coming up next, our intelligence, what they have to say about the white house whats doing and later cnn reporting on the news revealing encounter between President Trump and rosenstein and the question questioning him being on his team.

Last night, the president made it plain that he wants the public to see it. It is that open mic moment again at the state of the union. Dont worry, 100 . Can you imagine that . This was the president last night. Tonight, jim acosta told, the white house made redact portion of the memo. Chairman rogers, i bring this up again to you, we heard from paul ryan and the congressman broadcast that you were on two nights ago. All are saying Christopher Wray had a chance to see this and nobody raise objections and started making changes to this. The implication was that the fbi had to essentially, Christopher Wray signed off on this. Clearly, thats not the case. Well, as my understanding when the fbi director was there, hey, this is a lot to take in. I want to take this back. He reads it and sees it and he said hey, it was just himself. The fbi director a few months now. He says i am going to go back and look at it. You need to give them the opportunity to run through that information with his folks and clearly they came to a different conclusion that it was, they admitted important facts to that case. Here what i say drives me crazy about this is whole thing anderson. Listen, if there are allegations that the fbi perjure themselves, both republican and democrats should be upset about that. Sure. Number two, they should not say nothing there. Clearly the way republican majority is trying to release this without all the facts . I think it is a disservice, this is a classified committee designed to deal with very sensitive intelligence classified information and you want a joint Committee Investigation into the problems of which they see dooliually me will do nothing but confuse the public and taint peoples vision of what the important work of the committee does but the Intelligence Committee at large. Yes, would it be if they were investigating this and had concerns about this would not bring in Christopher Wray or other officials into ask them questions. Would that be a normal step . We, i am really going to get in trouble now, anderson. I dont think any committee or any member of that committee should have voted on that. I am told they all read the under lining intelligence information based on the memo including all the information that was in the affidavit to the fisa court. Without having all of that information, digesting it and reading it, you cannot make the information in the memo accurately reflects the concerns that you have. Thats what the fbi is saying. Hey, there maybe some truth in that and there may have been which, i struck, that was big fu news today. They did not disagree with the point. The facts that you picked omitted a lot of the facts. That tells me a Little Something there that they need to look at but without understanding the whole picture, you had no idea that the memo is accurate and now theyre talking about redaction and other things. By the way, the fbi is not immune to over sight and they should be held to account if they did those things. Thats important here and the way they go about this. There is a notion of the democrats have a memo thats somehow pure and none of this is good. If the republicans are doing it, none of it is good. If fbi are concerned about it and fundamentally impact the memos accuracies, how would redaction fix that . It wont. As the chairman says the affidavit will lay out the whole picture. These are incredibly long, fisa affidavit and what you have are a number of facts that are gathered from a number of different sources to paint a different picture that shows the judge that you met your probable cause standard. A source may tell you person x is doing this but then you have bank records and financial records and intel coming in from other sources and all of those are presented together. If you pull any one of those out may not be enough on its own. The other thing, anderson, apart from this investigation, this particular case, if this is not a substantiated claim of abuse, this is not in fact abuse, if the fbi actually followed the pro procedures, this could have a dramatic impact of the fbi overall efforts. If people mistakenly have the impression that the fbi cannot be trusted, you know the bread and butter of the fbi mattis go o is to go and talk to people and mostly to get sources. Yeah. If you are an fbi agent who has a source, you know, you wanted to be able to show that you can protect them and the fbi is now thank you and thank you chairman rogers as well. Coming up more breaking news of what his President Trump wanted from rosenstein and new information about this and by the way, it may sound familiar, stick around.
