The American Public needs to see this because we need to know was an entire investigation of a president based on an accusation from a Campaign Opposition research . If thats what were basing an investigation on and people are talking about on the democrat side trying to topple a president over a campaign research, thats a big problem. Even james comey weighing in the former f. B. I. Director tweeting the following. American history shows that in the long run weasels and liars never hold the field so long as good people stand up. Not a lot of schools or streets named for joe mccarthy. John roberts is live at the white house with the latest. John, there are a lot of opinions out there about what should happen with this memo. No shortage of opinions in washington the charm of this place. Were waiting to hear whether the memo and accompanying letter that states the president has no objection to the declassification of this memo will be transmitted to the Intelligence Committee. Sources have said they have not received it. It will likely be headed their way in a little while. The president has been silent about this all week with the exception of the open mic moment saying 100 he wants to release that memo. The president now with the release of the memo being imminent weighing in full throated on twitter saying the top leadership and investigators of the f. B. I. And Justice Department have politicized the sacred investigative process in favor of democrats and against republicans. Something which would have been unthinkable a short time ago. Rank and file are great people. The ranking democrat on the House Intelligence Committee accuses the Republican Party and the white house of playing politics. Releasing the memo simply to discredit the russia investigation and tarnish the reputation of the f. B. I. Republicans in congress and the white house insisting no, this is about revealing bad actors and not attacking the f. B. I. Listen here. Wants to release. This is designed to impugn the credibility of the f. B. I. , to undermine the investigation, to give the president additional fodder to attack the investigation. The president has stated many times that he respects the rank and file of the f. B. I. The 25,000 men and women who do a great job there. This particular investigation has taken a lot of twists and turns and it has led us to a few bad actors who had direct responsibility for an investigation about his political opponent and who are obviously biased against him. Kellyanne conway speaking to us from West Virginia where the president laid down the gauntlet to the democrats on the deferred action for Childhood Arrivals Program and immigration reform. He tried to push ahead for a fix for daca, enhancing security and ending visa lottery programs saying the democrats face a stark choice. Listen. President trump the democrats choose to filibuster a framework that includes a generous path to citizenship or something that is not fair, we are not going to approve it. We are not going to approve it. Well either have something that is fair and equitable and good and secure or we will have nothing at all. That same speech the president accusing democrats of doing nothing to move the ball down the field on daca and that they better get with it because that deadline is looming march 5. Im told by white house official else there will be no agreement in daca on place by the time the government is scheduled to again run out of money. That will be on the 8th of february next thursday. But that they should have legislation on the president S Immigration proposal shortly after that. Then it will be a race that got literally just a little more than a month right now to get this done before those daca protections expire. John roberts. Thank you very much. Jon meantime the speaker of the house paul ryan discussing the memo yesterday. Listen. What this is not is an indictment on our institutions, of our justice system. This memo is not an indictment of the f. B. I. , of the department of justice. It does not impugn the Mueller Investigation or the Deputy Attorney general. Jon for more on this the chief editor for dow jones news wires. Lets cut through some of the chatter about this. Republicans have been anticipating this, democrats are blasting the release of this memo. What do you think is the central issue here . Getting lost in all of the Politics Around this is that there is an issue. There is a question about whether authorization to spy on american citizens was done the right way. Thats a very grave responsibility that is given to the f. B. I. When it wants to take a look at issues related to domestic investigations that they are doing. It shouldnt be taken lightly. Jon it is not supposed to be easy to spy on americans is what you are saying. Thats right. There is a specific process. Evidence and documents that should be based on the f. B. I. s own investigations. Were told it is pretty unusual for the f. B. I. To use outside Research Like this Opposition Research that has been discussed here that is at the core of all of this memo to justify getting the authorization to spy on an american citizen. Jon it gets back to the trump dossier compiled in part by fusion gps and paid for in part by Hillary Clintons campaign and the Democratic National committee. Exactly right. Thats at the core of this. Is that the correct kind of documentation on which to base the authorization for domestic espionage . The wall street journal has reported that was not all presented as evidence in order to justify this domestic surveillance. Jon what about there are some at the white house who have said that this thing is kind of being oversold. Americans might read it and shrug their shoulders and say so what . Thats exactly a possibility in all of this. Ive heard many republicans also are calling for the underlying documentation to be brought forward, not just this memo. As you know, some of the f. B. I. Are concerned that the memo takes things out of context. It should be clear this is a republican memo and there is a democrat memo that some are calling to be released as well. The question is the underlying documents, what do they show in terms of whether the process to authorize domestic surveillance was done properly or not. Jon democrats are saying republicans have cherry picked the f. B. I. Files to release this memo. What about the notion of releasing the democrats counterpart . Should that memo come out as well . It seems the American People should have a right to understand whether this very serious responsibility for domestic surveillance was done correctly. At this point there has been so much discussion without evidence and actual underlying documentation it is hard for anybody to know whether this is being handled appropriately. I think there will be a need for more transparency as a result of all this. Jon it comes back to the fact that the Republicanled Congress just passed the fisa 702 bill. There was renewal of the fisa legislation before this very controversial fisa information is being released to the public. Yes. Underlying all of this it should be made clear it is congresss responsibility to have oversight about how fisa operates and how these programs are conducted. So if democrats and republicans would take that responsibility together that would be an appropriate response, i think. Jon i want to read a quote from kimberly the white house looks set to release the house memo an government surveillance abuses, the attacks on the documents by democrats, f. B. I. And media will get wilder. The memo needs to provide a few facts for the country to understand if there was abuse. The rest is noise. It represents the view that i think Many Americans also share. Which is lets get to the bottom of the underlying issues and not get focused on the Politics Around this. Did the domestic surveillance get authorized appropriately or not . I think thats the central question here. Jon glen hall from dow jones news wires. Thank you for coming in this morning. Republicans huddle at their annual retreat to get on the same page with the president s agenda. Will they find Common Ground on immigration . Congressman greg walden of oregon will join us next to discuss. The jobs report out for january. How did the economy do . Well tell you. Jon the numbers are in for january and the u. S. Economy exceeded expectations. Employers added 200,000 jobs last month. Analysts predicted about 180,000. Hourly earnings rose 2. 9 . The biggest gain since the recession ended. The Unemployment Rate stayed at 4. 1 for the fourth straight month. The lowest level since the year 2000. All that good news not helping wall street. The dow is down more than 270 points right now. Well continue to keep an eye on that throughout the morning. Julie President Trump meantime trying to rally republicans behind hiS Immigration plan during the annual gop retreat. Deep divisions remain over parts of the president s proposal with the clock ticking toward a deadline for the dreamers march 5. Joining me now is congressman greg walden. The chairman of the house energy and commerce committee. Thank you for talking to us. The president has put on the table a compromise, another compromise to try to reach across the aisle. And basically what it does, it awards millions of Daca Recipients legal status. Why did democrats reject it so quickly . They have trouble taking yes for an answer. The president has reached out his hand. We need to fix the broken immigration system, protect our borders and take care of these young adults brought here no fault of their own as little kids. Probably known no other country. We can do that if they work with us. The president has an offer on the table. I hope they dont want it just as a political issue. This is important in the lives of many people in this country and we need to protect our borders, secure them better and take care of the dreamers. Julie the proposal comes at a price. There are republicans, not just democrats, have that issue with some of the details in here. What would you say to your republican colleagues who dont necessarily agree with every element in the proposal . First of all when the senate sent us a proposal it was 40 billion. A lot of senators in both parts voted for that. What do we really need . It is our responsibility to get transparency and accountability in how any federal dollars are spent. We can protect the borders with a wall, new technology and whatever it takes. We can do that to make sure our Border Patrol agents have what they need to keep themselves and our country secure. I wouldnt get hung up on the exact dollar amount. Lets fix the broken immigration system and take care of these kids and protect our borders. It can be done. Julie purdue thinks the proposal hit a sweet spot. He said the president is willing to go well past what the democrats were asking for on daca. How do republicans work toward a solution if the democrats continue to block a deal and will there be compromise . We tried to do that with the Childrens Health insurance program. The democrats blocked that. They delayed that. Then we eventually passed it. You know, we will move forward because thats what the American People want us to do. We would rather have them at our side. No reason this would be partisan. Lets Work Together and get this done. We can do this but we arent going to stand around and just be dragged around and delayed. We arent going to go through another schumer shutdown. That accomplished nothing but disen enfranchised our federal workforce. Lets be adults and get it done. Julie youre talking about washington, lets be adults. I like the optimism. I want to talk about this memo. Were expecting potentially for it to be released any minute now. A lot of people complain about transparency. So then why not release the memo . That is a transparent thing they can do in this scenario. Why argue against it . Why would the f. B. I. Not want it . Its not engulfing the retreat. Ive been at the retreat on the other side from where the press is all weekend. This has been a very minor topic. Most of us have read it and we know whats there. I dont think we should overblow whats there. I cant talk about the specifics because i read it in a classified setting. It should be released. Its one piece of a much larger mosaic of what went on. The public should see that. I believe in transparency and accountability in government. As long as there arent any intelligence we want to protect sources but otherwise they can redact that stuff and people get the essence of the memo. I found it troubling. I think it should be released. Julie there were some minor changes to it why not release both versions . Bottom line, when you dont release something it raises speculation and if youve been watching Media Coverage there has been a lot of speculation. Lets start out by saying unless you have classified status you probably havent seen the memo. And from what im told by the chairman of the Intelligence Community they were minor technical changes and done in concert with the f. B. I. And Justice Department. I think there is no there there. The democrats want to drag it out and not make it available. Im for more transparency in government, i guess theyre not. People should read it carefully in the context of Everything Else and make decisions. It is troubling. Julie congressman greg walden. Great to see you. Thank you so much. Good to be with you.
