It to go beyond the man date and using authority it doesnt have to politically persecute President Trump. The judge said all of that. Well explain and this is major new and a huge set back for Robert Mueller and shows we were right. And you will probably not see the story in the media. They are rooting for the president to fail at all costs. Well explain this at a very Important News opening monologue. It is now day 352 of Robert Muellers witch hunt and 0 evidence of collusion. And yet the investigation goes on and on and on and got bad today. A federal judge courageously standing up to the out of control witch hunt in what is the single biggest beat down i have seen in my life by a judge. During a federal court hearing, former cochair for compain Paul Manafort. The u. S. District judge ellis rebukes the entire special counsel investigation and telling a member of muellers team. You dont care about mr. Manafort. You care about information that mr. Manafort can lead you to mr. Trump and impeachment or whatever. And the judge went on to say you want manafort to sing and slamming the scope of the Mueller Investigation saying we dont want anyone with unfettered power and mocked the special counsel. Saying this is what the investigation is about but we are not bound by it. And we were lying. The federal judge confirmed everything we said on the show for months. There is nothing that mueller will not do to malign the president and it is always about trump and not the people. And the president at the nra reacted to ellis stunning beat down of mueller and take a look. None of that information has to do with information related to the russian government coordination and the campaign of donald trump. It doesnt have going to do. Then how does this have going to do with the campaign, the judge asked . Let me tell you, folks, we are all fighting battles and i love it. Sean equal application over the law and a battle over the constitution and according to our producer, judge ellis raised important questions of why Rod Rosenstein has not recued himself over the russian investigation. This comes after the Deputy Attorney general shot down the Freedom Caucus to review the memo as to why the investigation of collusion started in the first place. It is important to note that the out lines the scope of the russian investigation. It was written in may three months before mueller was appointed and this is one more example of the Justice Department actively preventing members of congress and conducting investigation over the russia probe, fisan abuse and called check and balance and coequal balance and rosenstein and the fbi and Justice Department are not impervious to the rule of law. It is time for rosenstein and the witch hunt to resign and end. The off the scope Mueller Probe is a flawed and destructive see called russian investigation. We have multiple leaks revealed and we see dirty and aggressive tactics that team mueller has for the president himself including series of open ended. And we know that mueller has been holding the threat of a president ial subpeona over the white house. And there are serious issues surrounding the team and anti trump and democrat and i can obama and dnc donor and ethiccal questions was like Andrew Weissmann he is called the pit bull. And he has convicted multiple people. People have lost job and Merrill Lynch executives went to yale upending so many peoples lives and President Trump addressed the topic today. Have you changed your mind of willing to sit with Robert Mueller. The problem you have. You have a group of investigators and i am not a target. And i am not a target. But you have a group of investigators that are all democrat and some cases went to Hillary Clinton celebration that turned out to be a funeral. You have all of the investigators that are democrat and in all fairness Robert Mueller worked for obama for a year. Sean the president is right. She should never agree to any interview of any kind. As mark levin said last night, the constitution is on his side. The Mainstream Media is rooting for a show down of Robert Mueller and President Trump and cheering for any new anti trump revelation. You would think that the bias press, you think they will focus on what judge ellis said and historic remarks he said on this particular case . Of course not. And as we saw last week, the destroy trump media, they are obsessed with delegitimizing the president. They are out of control. Watch for yourself. Did he or didnt he . And if the Trump Presidency is a house was cards let it fall, too. We can see the business misdeeds that he might be get. I want to know if he cheateded to win by have the russians neeven the margins stack the deck. There is not only a legal but the political coming in to pay. He may face political fallout especially with the midterms. No one can be sure how it turns out. There is no reason for the white house to be optimistic. Sean just fathetic. And it is an extreme tunnel vision and result nothing multiple flawed stories including everything that you see on the side of the screen and might be even worse is the medias bias of admission. Over 15 months the president is building economic and a cheeverment. But you would not know it if you watch cnn and msnbc. The president pointed it out. We had the best numbers we have had. And yet all we hear about is a phony russia witch hunt. Sean without a doubt President Trump has achieved a lot. We have an Unemployment Rate that dipped to 3. 9 percent and the lowest rates since 2000. And add to that africanamerican and hispanic american and women in the work place. Lowest Unemployment Rate. And successful tax hikes and regulation reform. And expansion of American Energy and the president is seeing huge progress on the world stage the likes of which obama could not dream of accomplishing. Peace could be within reach and help of Benjamin Netanyahu iran held accountable. And they have a Nuclear Program and the u. S. Regained the International Back bone with trumps actions in syria. And russia is getting economically squeezed. And the American People elected the president to win on the world stage and here at home. Dont be fooled by the tactics of the left. They are russian collusion. And pa hatred of the president and everything he represents. The president in spite of all of this is succeeding and more good news is just around the corner. And finally tonight a breaking news report that we want to bring you to the less redakted version of the house intelereport. And know that james comey made a shocking admission that he testified and fbi saw no physical indication of deception for former National Security advisor mike flynn despite telling bret baier something different. That is it a line. Catherine herridge. It takes pageses on 53 and 54. Reporter good evening. The new version was released a short time before. It is a cleaner section and fewer redakzs. Michael flynn who pled get of one count of making a false statement on december 1st about his conversations with the russian ambassador. The report states that fbi director james comey testified that the fbi agents that intrude flynn find no signs of deception. Two people who interviewed flynn did not think he was lying which is not the great beginning of a false statement case. Comey said the agents saw no change of posture or eye conduct or anything that they knew he was lying on them. And pressed last week. Comey suggesting Something Else about the tell. Did you tell fbi agents that fbi agents didnt believe that he was lying. I dont know if someone misunderstood that and i didnt believe that or say that. Reporter they pressed to see if they had found new evidence. Sean how about redakt being the rest of it. There is reaction and Fox News Contributor and author of the soon to be released best seller and the scheme to elect Hillary Clinton and frame donald trump. Gregg jarrett, i have never in my life in the manafort case, heard a judge call muellers team liars the way he called them out today and then go on to see what relation it has to do with the special counsel. You dont care about manaforts bank fraud. All you can is the information manafort can give you to lead to mr. Trump for impeachment. Muellers investigation is rife with underhanded tactics and the judge is not buying it and he warned them, dont you suborn perjury to implicate the president. You are trying to make manafort sing and singing can turn in to composing. That is, the threats by government to get people to say things that are untrue in order to go light on them. We are not going to tolerate that. Thats what the judge said. And the most important thing he said. Where do you get the authority to charge Paul Manafort. Your Authority Comes from the trump collusion and any matters that arise from the investigation. The manafort investigation doesnt arise from the investigation. Mueller went in to the archives at the department of Justice Tax Division and appropriated an old case against manafort that was cleared and hes used that. And the timing is unbelievable. Bras remember sarah, it was july 26th, the morning raid, guns drawn and Paul Manaforts home and all he had to do is call the attorney and he would have surrennered. And august 22nd. Approval came. And that means the special counsel had to be investigating beyond the man date and then the raid and then man date permission for the raid. Judge ellis is not going to be bullied and made it clear in court today. Thats why he said. I want that memo redakted. The one that you gave to me i want it unredakted. He wants to know the scope of what rosenstein Gave Authority to to mueller and he want its now. And they said this has nothing to do with going to do combrnd the manafort case. He said i will be the judge of that. I think this is important. It also means that the judge sullivan who is overseeing a case has the same kind of issues. Judge sullivan played it out differently and made himself clear and we see two more months. And then judge sullivan is probably going through the right thing. It is refreshing and greg was right on the money and he understands the legalies. They are starting to understand that this is appearing and what we have said all along it is a witch hunt and goes beyond the scope of russia and doing everything they can to twist peoples arm and turn on people even if there is not evidence. Sean the page 53 and 54. There is so much more that needs to be reducted about comey. Brett baier caught him in a bold faced lie. He said that is not true. And he said no inication that general flynn was lying. Did they squeeze flynn and threaten to go after his kid or family. They never had a case against flynn. And mueller decided to bring one even though the agents said he was bringing the truth. Comey is lying on not only to bret baier bear. But on meet the press. He denied that the agents said that flynn was telling the truth. Was comey lying in front of the Intelligence Committee or last sunday or bret baier bear or the american public. No one is reporting judge tillis. And rosenstein, or isnt he recused. Now Rod Rosenstein, he is a witness in the case. And then we know Rod Rosenstein signed off on the fisan issue and now Rod Rosenstein here, it seems to me, hes in trouble. And that he needs to go next. Hes in huge trouble and he needs to go next. If you talk to anybody with common sense. Sean but back dating permission to raid manaforts home. Man dating permission and if you look at the report and what was unredakted version on page 53 and 54. You will see that mccabe, it appears was trying to put pressure on the fbi agents. I have reported that all along. When they came back and said flynn did not lie, we dont believe any detection and he was not lying and a lot of reportses that i was receiving that mccabe was putting pressure on them. I wonder how much will come out in the Inspector General report. Michael horowitz report we expect to see in the next week or so. It am be important and play in the investigation. Hopefully, it is a great question that judge ellis posed. Who is in charge much overseeing rosenstein and mueller. It is these judges. They are going to lay down the law and hopefully let the special counsel exceed any of their privileges beyond the russia scope. Sean unbelievable. And we have a lotground to cover. And coming up. Ed henry is here with more details on the federal judge that is exposing muellers mission to takedown President Trump and well speak to a former Campaign Aide who had to sell his home to pay for legal fees because of this witch hunt.

It came shortly after the president himself that he and Rudy Guiliani believed it was a witch hunt. The president is willing to sit down with Robert Mueller for a interview but most investigators are democrats and hes not sure he can get a fair shake. It was muellers team in court over the Paul Manafort charges. They are seeking unfettered power the judge said to bring down the president. Judge ellis said you dont care about mr. Manafort. You care about the information mr. Manafort can give you to lead you to mr. Trump and impeachment or whatever and seeing the unredakted information. And hes overseeing this. And the president said they are still new to the team and getting the facts straight. And president clarified his comments to you. And hes spoke to the nran in dallas. None of that information has to do with information related to the russian government coordination and the campaign of donald trump. It doesnt have going to do. It is from years before. Then how does this have going to do with the campaign, the judge asked . Let me tell you, folks, we are all fighting battles. But i love fighting these battles. [applause] sean ellis served in the law school and was nominated by reagan. He has issued over 1000 decisions and making it all more dangerous for mueller. And what the judge was saying, manafort charges go back to 2005. And finally the federal judge is saying wait a second and what does that have to do with the 2016 election. Sean the time table is unbelievable. The memo confirming muellers authority to go in manaforts home, that came after july 26th. It was like post dated permission. Ed henry, big news. And joining us is natural strategist dr. Sebastian gorka. And david limbaugh. David negotiated my contracts on tv, and radio and other business and we once broke bread together and i paid for it. Well go through the time line here. Putting aside the judge who escorrated muellers team. Manafort was raided on july 26th. And the memo didnt come out until august 2nd. And that means before they raided at dawn with guns blagz manaforts home. They investigated something they didnt have permission or man date to go into. B, they got permission specifically after it happened. What does that mean, david. It tells me it would be done and thrown out . Sometimes the judges fool people. But is was unambiggous and the judge is irritated and rightly so. I have begin the special counsel the benefit of the doubt but enough is enough. I have kept my powder dry. They have no evidence of collusion or obstruction and they are trying to lure him in a perjury trap and pressure people to flipping on trump. Heres what is ironic. The whole investigation is set up on the pretense of protecting democracy and here we have an out of control special counsel in the federal government imbued with all of the unaccountable authority and attempting to thwart the will of t
