my guest today is david horowitz. we've had them on this programfl today but he has a new book out called "mortality and faith". wouldn't it be nice if the spandrel tv would letth me interview him for their purposes and guess what? they did. here he is. welcome to new york city. aren't you from new york? >> originally. fifty or 60 years ago. >> that's originally. you have a new book out, so many books. a lot of people think of you mostly as a political conservative but in your book, radical son, where you talk about your life story you reveal a side of yourself that i, as a writer, would call a good writer. you are not just someone with great ideas but right well and in this book and probably not the first one to call it in elegiac. it has a beautiful tone to it, ruminations on mortality in faith and that is the title but when you decided to write this book -- let me ask you a simple question but why did you decide to write this book? a lot of people who read your book radical son maybe would assume that your story. >

david horowitz, welcome to new york city. resident aren't you from new york. >> 50 or 60 years ago. >> you have so many books. a lot of people think of you mostly as a political conservative but in your book, "radical son" where you talk but your life story, you reveal the side of yourself i as a writer would say -- i would call a good writer. you're not just somebody with great ideas but you write well, and in this book, i'm probably not the first one to call it -- it has beautiful tone to it, resume nations, obviously on mortality and faith. that's the title . when you decided to write this book -- well, let me ask you a simple question. why did you write this book? people might assume radical son is your story. >> that was the story of my political transformation from a leftist, somebody who described himself as a marxist revolutionary to a conservative. >> at what point did you stop describing yourself as a marxist revolutionary, what year roughly. >> roughly 1974, when a woman that i had recruited to keep the books nor b

horowitz on his report that was released two weeks ago? >> i'm not sure which report you're referring to. >> the report on the former fbi director james comey. >> that answer i don't know. >> do you anticipate having an opportunity to question -- >> i don't know either. >> i don't know. >> rain not discusses. >> he does not know. it sounds like the chairman does not know a lot about the issues that are most important to the american people and what the american public wants to know. >> it will be voted on that will change procedures so they can move closer to impeachment inquiry. but he does not know about a report written in the inspector general, you can lay the whole three year saga that lived at the feet of jim comay, he's the guy who open the investigation on the trump russia collision in 2016 and he put peter strzok in charge and allowed him to run the investigation. he is allowed the dossier to get a spy on the trump campaign, he leaked information through his body to the new york times so you can get a special counsel lena mr. horo

horowitz is not the only witness. i think we can expect fireworks between republicans and democrats. >> sandra: griff jenkins, thank you. >> bill: want to bring in texas republican john ratcliffe sits on that judiciary committee. welcome back. jerry nadler called lewandowski -- labeled unacceptable behavior. what was accomplished from this hearing, sir? >> well bill, when cnn says the house democrats had a bad day that tells you what a disaster it really was. democrats were arguing what to call it. impeachment probe or proceeding or inquiry much less have a coherent strategy doing it. they're desperate to be the party of impeachment and they are stretching their credibility and basically saying if president trump said it or did it, it must be a crime. the american people saw that yesterday in the hearing. >> bill: lewandowski came to battle. who is next for this committee? >> i don't think the democrats know. there is not a coherent strategy. the democrats are fighting amongst themselves what to do. they really don't

lou: justice department inspector general michael horowitz is on capitol hill today. horowitz says house democrats have yet to ask him to testify about his report on james comey. they haven't asked him about the up coming report on fisa abuse. fired former fbi director andrew mccabe he settled things for everybody. he told cnn last night he won't make a plea deal of any kind, if he's indicted, by the justice department for lying and leaking to the press. in february 2018, horowitz reported the following: the oig found that then deputy director andrew mccabe lacked candor. that means he lied, including under oath on multiple occasions in connection with describing his role in connection -- that's two in connections -- with a disclosure to the "wall street journal" and that this conduct violated fbi offense codes 2.5 and 2.6 and once you have got a decimal in that code you are in serious trouble. mccabe's former boss, the fired former fbi director james comey, you won't believe this, but he once again demonstrated his arrogance. he said he is highly confident he won't b

horowitz does have to answer tough questions on procedure between mccabe and comey. heather: we will have to have you back to discuss what we find out and what we do not. for more on the timeline as well. some other headlines. a woman charged in connection with a missing connecticut mom is doing court today, the girlfriend of fotis dulos his wife jennifer has not seen since may. a truck after jennifer went missing because her body was inside of it. they both pleaded not guilty to evidence tampering. prosecution in this case. jennifer dulos's body has never been found. canadian mom charged in a massive college admission scandal is arrested in spain accused of paying $400,000 to get her son into ucla as a soccer recruit even if he didn't play competitively. the us attorney's office in massachusetts trying to extradite her, the 35th parent charged in this scam. felicity huffman was sentenced to 14 days in prison for her role in the scandal. today we will find out if interest rates are going down for the second time this year, the federal reserve expected to cut rates by

horowitz is ready. his report is ready. it's being over viewed by the fact here is the information that has already been sent over to william barr, to the fisa, as well as the other documents, bruce ohr, everything congressman nunes had been requesting, may be declassified before the horowitz report comes out. that way, it limits the classification of the report for the public. this is very important. and one thing, i've spoken to a number of senators today, i've spoken to a number of people today. they've said let's take our time with this. let's see what develops, not rush. let's make sure this is done right so that the american people get the full truth. in the end, sean, this is going to be at the hands of attorney general william barr and john durham. they are in charge. they are the ones that have oversight, and they are the only ones that can indict or move forward with any type of criminal prosecution, if any of these laws were violated, which we know they were. >> sean: and, devin nunes, you know this as well as an

we should absolutely hear from inspector general horowitz. elizabeth: this is sort of like a concentrated effort to just mislead and keep the american people in the dark. here's congresswoman liz cheney really going after the democrats on this. watch. >> democrats on the judiciary committee will not bring him in to testify. they refuse to do that. and we think that that just fundamentally shows you their lack of substantive concern for issues that really should matter when the director of fbi conducts himself that way because they are too focused on political attacks on the president. elizabeth: james comey was found to be insubordinate, quote, that's from the probe of the ig. he was found to be breaking the rules at the fbi. following his own set of rules. doesn't that concern jerry nadler? what if a republican had an fbi director compliant and did the same to a democrat candidate? >> he would be in here in a heart beat. you saw them bring in mueller, cohen, brought in everybody that could discredit the president and look bad for president t

joey, on this, there's another ig report coming that horowitz could show up after that. what good would this do? >> joey: this is politics at its worst, honestly. i don't know that the american people care a lot anymore about this. i think they are tired of it. with that being said, accountability matters. if jerry nadler can sit there and justify the things we've seen, the testimonies a mandated, and this report that has gone to nothing from mueller, we have to know -- we have to at least see that they care about what inspector general horowitz -- or, what order with had to say in his report. a good friend of mine from georgia spent a lot of time sitting beside during other, representative doug collins, i spoke with him. i believe republicans know, when it comes to the president, people do care if he's being attacked in this way. especially his base. it's kept them alive, it has kept them going. i just don't know if the american people at large, the independent player us, liberals, or democrats that may be undecided on voting for because they are uninspired by these dem

horowitz writes, "we have now begun the process of finalizing our report by providing a draft of our factual findings to the fbi for classification, determination, and marking. we will now proceed with our usual process for preparing final drafts public and classified reports." as part of the standard inspector general review process, former officials who signed off on the fisa will have the chance to provide comment for the final public report. they include former director james comey, who signed off on the first surveillance warrant for a trump campaign aid. his former deputy, andrew mccabe. the bureau's top lawyer, james baker. former fbi agent peter strzok, lawyer lisa page, among other witnesses. this morning a senior republican on the house judiciary committee said the recent report on comey shows he violated fbi policy and the bureau's employment agreement, and he said that backs up attorney general barr's recent statements. >> he said there was a failure of leadership at the upper echelons of the fbi. that is certainly true, and that includes comey, mccabe, baker, strzok, pai

the inspector horowitz to testify. they said the time would have been better used getting horowitz in the witness chair to talk about his recent findings that the former fbi director james comey violated fbi policy and was also -- [inaudible]. liz? liz: that would have cut their impeachment hearing if they had horowitz in. catherine herridge, thank you. an independent counsel is joining us now. your reaction to the hearing today, robert? >> liz, this is political theater at its finest. it is a real shame. the democrats just seem hellbent on parting any blowing that they can on president trump. the mueller report didn't do it. the corey lewandowski didn't do it. their lawsuits aren't doing it. they are just not getting any traction. i hope this ends. liz: republican congressman jim jordon blasting former fbi director james comey, watch this. >> the main thing we got from that report from mr. horowitz just a few weeks ago was the fact that the january 6th, 2017 trump tower meeting, when it was president elect trump, they

inspector general michael horowitz has pleted his investigation into fisa abuse. attorney general barr is reviewing the documents. according from the house judiciary ranking member, congressman doug collins, after barr is done reviewing the report it will then be released to you. we, the people. the general public. this is a culmination of a months, months-long investigation by the d.o.j.'s watch dog into rampant abuse of power at the highest levels of the f.b.i. and the d.o.j., all eyes will be on jim comey, andrew mccabe and the other high ranking officials that used christopher steele's dirty dossier as the basis for the bulk of information for a fisa warrant to spy on the trump campaign and presidency, and mccabe is the guy who said no dossier, no fisa warrant, remember what "the new york times" said about the dossier, it was likely russian disinformation from the beginning. they used it. they never verified it. they were warned about it. now the consequences if we have equal justice under the law. comey and others were warned over and over and over again. thi

i think horowitz's testimony makes clear that's not at all what happened. the inspector general was so concerned by what he found jim comey did that he referred him for criminal prosecution, which as far as we know is a first in the history of the nation. >> bill: will he then be prosecuted? is that a foregone conclusion or not so fast? >> well, i would say not so fast. as we know it looks as though the department of justice has declined to prosecute jim comey for what was referred to them. but that's not necessarily a surprise. i think different prosecutors can look at different things in different ways. from the inspector general's perspective he is required to refer anything that could be deemed a criminal violation. even though comey may have evaded justice in response to this referral it shows the inspector general was very troubled by what he found. >> one million records and 100 interviews. the report will come from horowitz probably in a few weeks. two more things here. first this is horowitz on talking about the fisa court and how it may have been

so my guess is horowitz has looked at both. if he finds malfeasance then he's going to do what he did with comy, which is there won't be an indictment, but hopefully consequences in the court of public opinion and this history. if there are potential crimes, horowitz will refer those to the only entight in our society that can prosecute crimes which is the executive branch, in this case the department of justice. neil: you know, congressman, a federal prosecutor is now recommending charges against the fbi former number two, deputy director andy mccabe. since that time, for lying, essentially for lying to authorities. since that time, we're told that mr. mccabe's lawyer has said that prosecutors should drop the probe because apparently earlier investigations show that he did know the lie. i don't know who is telling the truth, but if there's no proof that he lied, do you agree with his lawyer, cease, desist, move on? >> i don't think his lawyer is saying andy mccabe didn't lie. i don't think anybody is saying that. i think his l

>> it is certainly appropriate for us to get a referral. >> another house republican pressed horowitz on his findings that comey was a leaker who violated fbi policy. asking the inspector general why he characterized comey as, quote, setting a dangerous example. >> our concern was empowering fbi directors or frankly any fbi employee or other law enforcement official with the authority to decide that they are not going to follow established norms and procedures. >> do you know of any fbi director who in the past has ever had a criminal prosecution? >> i don't know as i sit here today. >> and house republicans pushed back against the former fbi deputy director andrew mccabe who is under threat of indictment for misleading federal investigators. as mccabe publicly attacks the credibility of horowitz and his team. >> i absolutely reject the findings and the conclusions of the ig report that accused me of exhibiting a lack of candor in several instances. >> we have two back-to-back heads of the fbi, both referred for criminal prosecution. both of these heads of the fbi failed to safeguard

back in may, horowitz's office began investigating whether any surveillance abuse, two sources tell our chieftains elements source and heritage that records could be declassified before the horwitz report is released. heritage that down with donald trump in may and asked about it. >> is there a timeline on when the public will see these russian records declassified? >> whenever they need it. i will be the plaza flying everything. >> at the same time horwitz is putting the finishing touches on a report. is on the room is investigating the origins of the russia probe. take a listen. >> i think the coordination at the justice department between what inspector general horwitz is doing in the us attorney john durham who is looking into the origins of the investigation they worked this out in a coordinated fashion no doubt and probably the end of a phase of horwitz's investigation but i don't know that it will impact durham. >> once the report is completed and certain parts are classified it will be released to the public. that could come in a matter of weeks. we will continue to watch. >> th

what they have determined what is classified and on what level, horowitz said he would also weigh-in as you know. the attorney general says he wants as much public as possible, neil. >> neil: thank you very much, catherine herridge. she might have missed an opportunity to be in the last debate, but she didn't miss generating headlines all over the globe when she attacked the president of the united states for being a bit too attached to the saudis. saying he was going to be pimping out our troops on behalf of the saudis. tulsi gabbard is next. good afternoon board members. we have some great new ideas that we want to present to you today. [son]: who are you talking to? [son]: that guy's scary. the first item on the list is selecting a chairman for the... for the advisory board what's this? as well as use the remaining... child care options run out. lifetime retirement income from tiaa doesn't. guaranteed monthly income for life. why accept it frompt an incompyour allergy pills?e else. flonase sensimist. nothing stronger. nothing gentler. nothing lasts longer. flonase sensimist. 24 ho

ongoing trade war we bring in jeffrey tucker of the american institute for economic research and todd horowitz chief strategist at trading. let's start with you jeffrey this latest round of tariffs is a big deal as now more than 2 thirds of consumer goods in the u.s. imports come from china now face higher taxes as businesses pull back on investment spending and exports slow down american shopper so far has been the one bright spot for the u.s. economy and now that last growth segment is now at risk so are we going to get any relief before the end of the. or is this just going to accelerate our risk by recession. look i've been predicting for 3 years it's going to get worse and get worse and get worse and i think wall street has been kind of in denial because they don't believe that we're really going to turn our backs as a country global trading relationships which cause to 60 percent of global g.d.p. . to decouple or otherwise impose tariffs is a disaster for the u.s. economy but look this is what trump promised. 3 and 4 years ago so it was obvious it was coming it's just i think it surprise

the doj inspector general michael horowitz has now officially completed his investigation to fisa abuse. now the attorney general bar rshg has received a draft report, is currently reviewing those documents. and according to a letter from the house judiciary ranking member, congressman doug collins after barr is done reviewing the report, lit be released to you, we, the people, the general public. this is the culmination of a months' long extensive investigation by the doj's watchdog to what is rampant abuse of power at the very highest levels of the fbi and the doj. now all eyes will be on jim comey, andrew mccabe, and all of the high-ranking officials who used christopher steele's dirty dossier as the basis of the bulk of information for an fisa warrant to spy on the trump campaign transition and presidency. and, remember, mccabe is the guy who said, oh, no dossier, no fisa warrant. what "the new york times" said about the dossier, yeah, it was likely russian disinformation from the beginning. they used it. they never verified it. they were warned about it. now the consequence, if we

rob: horowitz elaborating on the report that comey sent a dangerous example through memo leak setting there was concern that can empower authorities on protocol. jillian: justin trudeau apologizing for wearing brown face. rob: time magazine revealing this picture which he says was taken during an arabian nights theme party in 2001 and it was not the first time. >> in and aladdin costume, i shouldn't have done that. when i was in high school i dressed up at a talent show and saying dale with makeup on. i didn't consider it a racist action at the time but now we know better. jillian: this coming 5 weeks before canada's election, trudeau is in a dead heat with his conservative opponents. rob: tropical depression imelda push east to louisiana with powerful wind and rain spawning tornadoes. you can see one there. windows blown out, trees knocked over in highland, texas as well. jillian: this driver forced to abandon their car in galveston and bermuda feeling the effects of hurricane humberto. rob: you see those bend alaska you don't see them snap often. that storm snapped a dream and knock

>> it looks as if the charges that were set forth are the allegations set forth in michael horowitz, inspector general, the respected inspector general of the justice department. they have legs. it stood the test so sit would appear of running the gauntlet of the actual criminal justice process. we had reports that mr. mccabe's' stable lawyers after he peeled to the deputy attorney general and he's not stepping into overrule the career prosecutors. we are taking the career prorls cuter's nieblg horowitz's report saying there is real substance here. city would appear that mr. mccabe -- it's a tragic day for mr. mccabe. he will be facing criminal charges. liz: do you think he will face criminal charges? >> the tea leaves are being read all in one way. anything can happen in the criminal justice process. they can appeal to the attorney general of the united states. please don't do this to this career person. the clinton email investigation and his partisanship and all the things we talked about the last several years look at his entire record, sort of the whole body of work. i can see t

and if anything we know that horowitz is ready. his report is ready and being over viewed by the doj as well as the fbi for any classified information. i think an important fact here is that the information that has already been sent over to william barr to the attorney general from a lot of that information, the fisa as well as the other documents, bruce ohr, congressman nunes requesting, may be declassified before the horowitz report comes out. that way it limits the classification of the report for the public. this is very important. one thing, i've spoken to a number of senators today. i've spoken to a number of people today. they say let's take our time with this. let's see what develops. not rush. let's make sure this is done right so that the american people get the full truth. in the end, sean, this is going to be at the hands of attorney general william barr and john durham. they are in charge. they are the ones that have oversight, and they are the only ones that can indict or move forward with any type of criminal prosec

inspector general michael horowitz confirming his department will look at alleged discrepancies in james comey's testimony. >> we have taken down your report and put it side-by-side with congressional testimony james comey made, finding a number of irregularities. >> a referral about a then employee of the department. >> reporter: despite the weaponization of the doj democrats would rather push their impeachment agenda. are they doing a disservice to americans? here is kelly hyman and republican strategist joseph opinion. thank you for joining us, appreciate it. let's start this. what do you think? are they doing a disservice to americans? >> the old 60s song it is my party and i will cry if i want to. democratic party is obsessed with impeachment in spite of the fact the majority of americans across party lines do not want this. explosive accusations coming out of the ig and democrats from core leland: dell ski to his mother to capitol hill to talk about things he talked about, makes you wonder whether priorities are. >> polls show what joseph was saying, 50% oppose going ahead with imp

>> horowitz, he has done everything right. he has struck exactly the right balance. he criticized comey deservedly so for leaking and laundering material through a law professor and he will review referrals from members of congress as to whether mccabe did anything wrong.s i'm very happy with the way the inspector general conducted himself. it doesn't follow from that that there necessarily should be criminal prosecutions. as you know, i want to decriminalize as much as possible.i want to reserve the l justice -- >> laura: where's the accountability? >> the accountability comes in the report. his career has been terribly affected both mccabe and comey. >> laura: they have tv gigs what are you talking about? comey got a big book deal, the other got a tv gig giving reeeches all over the country. these guys are going to be the toast of the liberal left. >> well they shouldn't be because they've been seriously condemned by a responsible justice department official. but, before we jump to the next step, letl's prosecute, indict imprison, let's make sure theree is overwhel

inspector general horowitz, dealing with the justice department, i think that's appropriate it comes before the committee. maybe that is as disagreement with the promise that chairman nadler made for his political friends that he would just impeach this president regardless of facts. i think the first thinking you'd want to know is what's going on in the justice department. after inspector general, in a nonpartisan way, analyzed it with that report coming forward. i hope at least he read that report. and we bring him before his committee. i watched through this last break what's happening in hong kong. millions of people, week after week, crave what america has. we should all remember that america's more than a country. america is an idea, an idea so powerful it inspires people who crave the freedom that we were given centuries ago. every day we should be able to defend it, but every day we should stand with anyone who stands for freedom. this is a moment in time that we should. as i listened to the democrats, and i know they have an internal fight. it's more than just the disagreeme

michael horowitz does good work. liz: that was jim jordan telling fox news sean hannity that he expects d.o.j. inspector general will determine that the pfizer weren't that was obtained despite on the term campaign were of o of illegally obtained. for not calling horowitz to testify before congress after comey report, why, it would undercut the impeachment pushed by democrats. for his reaction, let's get to the federal prosecutor doug burns. what do you think of congressman and jim jordan's predictor? >> i'm not so sure will see that. i think we'll see the same thing you saw with the ig report on comey, protocols were not followed, things are not followed correctly, d.o.j. and fbi. i don't think he's going to go that far for two reasons, somewhat political but to it the court that determines whether or not a warrant was obtained illegally. >> didn't he refer people to be prosecuted. >> your exactly right. he might turn around to put a point on the fence, protocols were not followed and it should be referred. but i do

horowitz to the congressional oversight committee late today and it confirms that draft findings are now at the justifiable department and the fbi. now they face the hard process of classification. i've been told that's one of the lingering stumbling blocks here. how much will be public? how much will be blacked out or redacted? republicans want as much public as possible. what we also learned from the letter is that horowitz has reviewed over a million records and interviewed more than 100 witnesses. so, it's extensive. but the big question is the timeline. my contacts anticipate there will be a declassification of records prior to the release of the fisa report. that will allows a much of that report to be as public as possible. maybe late september, early october, neil. >> neil: thank you very, very much. >> you are welcome. >> neil: we will be following up on my live show tomorrow with a senate judiciary committee john kennedy also joni ernst of iowa. it's a big show coming up and we will follow it for you. here comes "the five." ♪ ♪ hello, everyone, i'm juan williams along w

horowitz also alleged that comey tried to deceive president trum7 by probing trump for information and reaction to the dirty dossier that he said was salacious and unverified. what he didn't tell the president is that just a couple of months earlier, he was signing a fisa warrantnt based n dossier, the one he didn't verify, the one that he was warned wasn't true on multiple occasions. we no there were three, as many as five occasions that comey was warned, don't trust economist fer steele. remember he told him and that trump tower meeting.he was not e investigation. that was also a huge lie. it was one of the many traps that comey set in what was operation cross fire hurricane. in a brand-new book from comey's former assistant.he set up gene. he said, we just decide, well, screw it. he was bragging about taking advantage of general flynn. he sent his investigators to thn the first few chaotic days of the administration, he's said from the beginning. it was from the againing a perjury trap. andrew mccabe said, oh, you don't need a lawyer. comey said he did something he would never have

michael horowitz was appointed by barack obama. this is not a donald trump appointee. it shows you how corrupt the top levels of the fiber with and now that we know there are additional pending charges against james comey for abuses of the guys of -- -- abuses of the fisa parents. there are til charges pending against andy mccabe. trish: i guess my question to you, we are waiting on this i.g.'s report. when is this going to happen? do you really think some heads are going to roll in the way they should give be what's alleged? >> trish, the report can't come out soon enough. this has been going on since donald trump was a candidate for office over three years ago. we don't have a resolution. anybody else who wasn't the senior members of the fbi perpetrated the same crimes. they would be in jail. they would have been prosecuted. we are waiting for the grand jury to come back with the mccabe verdict. this is shocking news that the former director of the fbi james comey was referred for criminal prosecution for the crime of leaking information which if you or i did would b

rob: michael horowitz will testify on investigating the investigators. the oversight hearing comes days after the promise of justice inspector general completed the fisa probe. david bruno joined us to weigh in on what will come forward in the investigation. >> attorney general william barr has the ability to read act and declassify on orders from the president. i don't know how much we will learn about that. what is more fair game is the mccabe ag reported the comey ag report. rob: they are examining potential fisa abuses by the agency. a woman charged in connection to a missing connecticut mom is doing court today, the girlfriend of fotis dulos whose girlfriend jennifer has not been seen since may, he cleaned the truck after jennifer went missing because her body was inside it. they both pleaded not guilty to evidence tampering and hindering prosecution in the case, her body is not yet been found. carley: there is no clear winner in his recollection overnight. benjamin netanyahu greeting supporters at a rally after exit polls show his opponent leading

the horowitz report on the fisa warrant is a really big deal. and it's going to be awful and appoint. but beyond that, the durham work on how the conspiracy against the president got started in the role of john brennan and klapper in comay in the conspiracy is going to be really big. but the problem is the delay. every day that goes by, the president loses an opportunity to make a bigger case than the one the 30 been made. that is not his fault, that's the system. the problem is, as you start as poorly as the president was forced to start with jeff sessions and rod words inside and you don't get bill barr until two and half years into presidency, it makes life pretty rough. i'm hoping that horowitz and durham will fix that for the president. >> this president wants transparency and he is declare that. does he not have an option is to say let every damn document out, i do not want to see anymore nonsense and let it rip. >> he does have the option but he gave it to bill barr, that will be up to bill barr to do any declassification -- he gave it to

horowitz, he said, i don't know, i haven't thought about that. course, you haven't thought about that. too busy trying to impeach the president. too busy slapping subpoenas on corey lewandowski. that's what the committee should be focused on. i yield back. >> the gentleman yield's back. gentleman from georgia. >> thank you, mr. chairman. mr. lewandowski, you are about like a fish being cleaned with a spoon. very hard to get an answer out of you. but let me ask you this, sir. based on the president's past statements, everybody knows that the president does not like for anybody to take notes when he's talking. in fact, he asks lawyers not to take official notes. you're aware of that, correct? >> i'm aware of the public account, sir. >> all right. fair enough. when the president met with you in the oval office one on one on june 19, 2017 to dictate a message to attorney general jeff sessions, he told you to, quote, write this down, isn't that correct? >> that's accurate. >> and it was just you and the president in that meeting, correct? >> it was. >

was confirmed in the horowitz report. yes he said it was urgent that congress sees it but he also says in the letter it wasn't from the original person. and third of all. >> james you brought up the two points let's take on those. >> well, first of all the vice president pressuring ukraine not to have corruption is toemgtsly different than what the president is accused of having done. it would be as if vice president biden pressured ukraine to look into mitt romney's finances. i mean, that's the appropriate analogy. obviously american presidents pressure countries to deal with corruption. and no one would have a problem with it if that is what president trump did with ukraine. but there is "wall street journal" reporting that he had a conversation eight times asking ukraine to investigate not just the vice president but the vice president's family. and that he tied allegedly our foreign aid to that. and that's where there is a concern on the abuse of process. as far as i know on the facts we don't know the whistleblower w

that, to me, should be the heart of the horowitz investigation. i assume you agree. >> certainly. even though the state department knew his work was shoddy, they continued to push it out. newland kept on pushing this material out, kavalon kept on pushing this material out come of these false allegations related to russia over at the state department. i think if there is an investigation that needs to be done, we talk about the fbi and justice department, the state department is as much a center of the russia gate storm as any of these other agencies because if you remember, sean, the state department is listed as a source or a confirming source in the fraudulent fisa warrants. it turns out, they were using the same garbage that the justice department was using but turns out it's different. >> sean: comes back to hillary's bought and paid for russian lies. the new york times refers to it as likely russian disinformation from the get-go. tom fitton, keep up the great work. we do have a breaking report out of california. you do need to know about this in a big win for the president a
