Recklessness. Saturday morning tweets beginning just after 6 30 a. M. The president accused barack obama of tapping his phones at trump tower. He said this is a new low. It is nixon watergate. He called obama a bad or ck guy. The source of his wiretapping claim appears to be a concerted radio hes. Host. We have a Prior Administration barack obama and his Sur Grats Who were supporting Hillary Clinton and their party using the Instrew Mentalities of the federal government shlgs intelligence activities to surveil members of the trump campaign. Thats a voice to be believed. A Spokesman Says neither President Obama or any white
house official ever ordered surveillance on any u. S. Official. If the fbi, for instance, had a court order would that be information you would know or not know . Yes. You would be told this . Yes. If there was a court order on Something Like this . Yes you cant confirm or deny whether it exists . There is no fisa court order . Not to my knowledge. Of anything at trump tower . No. New york siems said james comey asked the Justice Department this weekend to publicly reject President Trumps assertion of the tapping of mr. Trumps phones. President Trump continues to push his wiretap narrative. He said the president wants congress to investigate. He said he doesnt 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 doesnt need an investigation. He can call on his fbi director and said did you do any Wiret Wiretapping on the subject of him. He didnt want to do it because he knows it is all nonsense. Your thoughts . Reporter i can tell you what
he said in that off camera gaggle. It was talking about the idea of potential interference, not wanting to be seen as any type to have d. O. J. Or fbi activities. There were several others that dominated the discussion today about allegations that, as you note, are not proven or substantiated and the backing a and neither is the president. They dt even nak a nod to the need for evidence. They just make an assertion like this. Barack obama hired plumbers and committed felony after felony on the side. There is no option here how it could have been the case and yet we have to cover like it is objective conversation going on here, like it could possibly be true. Reporter i would say this. You talk about the white houses
response to this. The white house is not saying at all what the source is. You talked about bringing it up friday afternoon as well, the president s tweet coming on saturday. The white house said we are not talking about this anymore. Sure, because spicer doesnt want to lie. Sean spiers has enough professionalism he will not tweet a repeat the president s words. He will not say that he believes that barack Obama Wiretapped trump. He doesnt believe that and he wont say so. I listened to his words today. It is all of this clever retreat. Nobody over there will actually say they belve trump will they . Reporter the question is, when you talk about would what spicer is referring to, sarah
huckabee sanders, they konlt to refer to this. The fbi would oversee any type of surveillance if it would ever happen. Theres no evidence of that. The fbi under per view of President Trump himself. I dont think they will repeat what he has been saying. It so ludicris and mickey mouse. Joining me right now member of the judiciary committee. I have been around a lodng time. I dont think either party has it figured out. This is below discussion. There is nothing to investigate. There was no wiretapping. There is no real serious charge here. He just releases these rabbits and people in the interest of so called Objective Journalism Go Chasing after him. How do you cover this . Tell me, senator, how do you
allies and with the american people. What has to happen, senator, youre a levelheaded guy. Youre not like one of these people that tweets at 6 00 in the morning. I think the behavior itself is a question. What do you think of his stability. What do you think of a guy that tweets his it doesnt the message of stability that our allies are counting on. When he traffics in the exact same type of techniques used to try to undermine de democracy and makes an american echo of p putins technique, it is en more alarming. If you want him to be the leader of the free world you have got to stop him from engaging in this type of behavior. If he is going to be like a

If you have a sudden decrease or loss of hearing or vision, or an allergic reaction, stop taking cialis and get medical help right away. Ask your doctor about cialis. Allegation. Lets watch. I have no incite into what exactly he is referring to. I would imagine the president and white house will outline further what was behind that akization. I think it is interesting the Department Of Justice has not weighed in on this and looking forward to hear what they are going to say. It is hard to cross examine tweets. I need documents. There would be a paper trail, it is now controlled by the Executive Branch run by mr. Trump. Well said. Now the white house has asked congressional intelligence committees looking to russias interference to also investigate the president s charges. The white house can really do a etty good job of telling people what to say and answer questions. He said yesterday we will continue to investigate this issue if the evidence warrants it. Im joined by jim and john. I dont say spicer is always totally truthful but they are all hedged in their bets. Nobody wants to echo what the president has been saying here, the previous president , that he is some kind of crook, wiretap or felon. They will say things like he has a lot of information, like kellyann said. Or he want to have a full investigation like spicer said. None of them say i believe the guy. Do you believe the guy . Do you believe he has evidence . Let me be the first to say that donald trump has information that i dont have. Oh, here we go. Here is the part i dont understand. During the entire Campaign Donald trump was brilliant at hijacking news and news cycle. What part of us is surprised as president he would do that . So this is another rabbit
chase . Well, i think it is and i think hes winning. To me this is like so you dont believe him either . Every time the liberals think they have him this is not about liberals. This is not a philosophical discussion. Does he have evidence he was wiretapped by barack obama or not . Do you believe but let me ask you this information. What do im just asking you a question. I have no way of knowing that, just like you dont. You have to have something behind an assertion. But chris, all of this started with the democrats saying they had information about the trump and the russians. The only thing they have done is exposed Hillary Clinton was in coo ho okay. Let me go on. We do know the russians said. There are a lot of context. I have been open on this every
night. Have they fill until this puzzle yet . No. There is a lot of frame work to it. A lot of evidence the russians on hillary losing and they lucked out and got trump elected. In terms of hacking the dnc, all of this evidence suggests a grand effort by russians to crew our election process up and hurt Hillary Clinton. There is a lot of hard evidence that were never admitted to in the first instance. People finally got caught. We didnt know jerrad was meeting with him at trump tower. Michael flynn denied it. It has been kept secret and we exposed it in the media. I dont have the final answer but this other one has nothing to it. You know, john, it has nothing to it. Why is the president saying
this stuff at 6 00 in the morning on a saturday morning . Take the day off, donald. The president is trying to deflect from all of the things you just mentioned. If they didnt do anything wrong they should stop acting guilty . Why is it they wont Tell The Truth about the meetings chlts even tonight Jeff Sessions saying he didnt mislead the committee when he said he didnt meet with the russians. He said he was meeting with him as a senator, not as a surrogate. Oh. Let me ask you this, whooi i know whats going to happen now, there will be hearings by nunez. They will accomplish nothing. They will just have to say was there any wiretapping . Yes or no . Have them come in. That doesnt take more than a few days. Thats right. Remember, a clapper said the same thing. He is director of national intelligence. He said they werent doing it. It is the biggest nothing. And press secretary sean
spicer was asked to we lap rate whether he believes a warrant was issued to improve a wiretap. Does he believe its a fisa warrant . It could be fisa, it could be surveillance. Does he not know what kind of surveillance it was . I think theres no question that something happened. The question is is It Surveillance . Is it a ware tap or whatever but there has been enough reporting that strongly suggests that something occurred. I was too nice to sean spicer. He said we know there was something that we dont. If somebody else puts it out it doesnt mean thats not a news outlet. We dont know anything about this. Here is the thing. Let me say this you want do get in here . This makes no sense to me. If theres nothing there why is everybody objecting so much for it to be investigated . Thank you. When we return, let me finish
with trump watch. He is not going to like it tonight. This is hardball. Holding you back or is it your Allergy Pills . Break through your allergies. Introducing Flonase Sensimist.
