Justice department for many years. you're in private practice now. i wonder what you think about this. let me just give you a little bit from the report. the ig saying comey provided a separate copy of memo four to rickman who was one of comey's attorneys and also a close personal friend. rickman all served as a special government employee at the fbi during a portion of the time comey was fbi director. comey instructed richman to share the contents of the memo but not the memo itself with a specific reporter for "the new york times." get your thoughts on that. >> that's the part that drives me...

Behavior that they began investigating whether he had been working on behalf of russian -- russia against american interests. that's according to former law enforcement officials and others in the investigation. take a look at that one more time. the fbi was not worried that trump was colluding with the russians. they were worried he might be working for russia against the u.s. either unknowingly or even on purpose. around the time comey was fired in may of 2017, two events prompted them to launch a counterintelligence operation. the first was the president's insistence on referencing russia i...
