2:01 am
the investigation into secretary clinton's emails and i do not understand his refusal to accept the judgment that he was mistaken. in a letter to comey donald trump told the director his decision was necessary to, quote, restore the trust and confidence of the public, democrats reaction, outrage questioning the timing of the de special prosecutor to be appointed on the russia probe, chuck schumer calling it a mistake. >> earlier this afternoon donald trump called me and informed me he was firing director comey. i told the president, mister president, with all due respect, you are making a big mistake. the first question the administration has to answer is why now. if the administration had objections to the way director
2:02 am
comey handled the clinton investigation, they had those objections the minute the president got into office but they didn't fire him zen. why did it happen today? >> the white house quick to defend the decision pushing back on suggestions it was a cover-up. >> it is not a cover-up. the president makes clear in his letter the fact that mister comey and three occasions assured the president he is not under investigation. >> this story is very fluid. the acting deputy director is currently in charge, any decision on a permanent replacement is not known. the white house telling fox news there is no timeline on this but i hope it will be restoring confidence in bringing that credibility to the fbi although there are names being floated out there on the water and other stories and we will pursue this aggressively this morning. >> imagine how tough the senate
2:03 am
confirmation will be. democrats condemning the firing of comey demanding a special prosecutor. when they were the ones crashing his integrity. >> we are all disturbed by the letter which broke precedent over the advice of the leaders in the justice department. i'm not challenging mister comey's motivation, but i think it was unwarranted. it was a mistake. >> he has a thick burden of proof for why he did what seems to be such an appalling act against the tradition of prosecutors at every level of government. when i heard about it i found it hard to believe comey who i thought had a degree of integrity would do this. >> i think he made a mistake on this and clearly has a double standard and you can't take the
2:04 am
heat, he just couldn't take the heat from the republicans. >> critics are calling it is the move of a fascist dictator. former us attorney for district of columbia said the president made the right call. >> the fbi director and acted like he was the attorney general, even the president of the united states, violated every known rule of the permit of justice about how an investigator is supposed to conduct himself and for that he usurped the powers of the attorney general on july 5, 2016, and from there on in he was no longer able to lead the fbi. as his testimony last week before the senate was viewed by many as so bizarre, so self-indulgent, self-righteous that many people believe he lost it and could no longer function as leader of the fbi and they were correct. he interjected himself because he wanted to be a hero. he wanted this to be about james comey. he wants to save hillary clinton's candidacy and that is what he did, he did it for
2:05 am
political and self-aggrandizement reasons. >> the massive political shockwaves marking a premature an end to the 10 year term of the former fbi director. we take a look at how we got here. >> in 2003 is a 6 foot 8 komi was nominated by george w. bush to be the deputy attorney general and the next year he had a showdown with top bush administration officials because they tried to get a hospitalized attorney general, john ashcroft, to reauthorize a program from his hospital bed. >> i thought i witnessed to take an effort to take advantage of a sick man who did not have the powers of the attorney general because they were transferred to me. >> reporter: comey admits he was a registered republican for years but was nominated to lead the federal bureau of investigation for a 10 year term by a democratic president. >> he doesn't care about politics, only cares about getting the job done. >> reporter: comey in front of the rise of isis memorial we

telling 60 minutes he preferred loan read to lone wolf but his most memorable line was when he used to close the hillary clinton email server investigation. >> there is evidence of potential violations, the statutes regarding this classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case. >> reporter: comey revisited the investigation within two weeks of the election clinton lost and she place blame on comey for trump's win, the fbi's the relationship seemed cordial enough for a while. >> he has become more famous than me. >> reporter: comey's congressional testimony by russian interference was not satisfying because he wouldn't say for sure he would probe damaging leaks the white house believes came from the last administration. >> can you assure them that it
2:07 am
is going to be investigated? >> cat, but i hope people watching know how seriously we take leaks of classified information. i don't want to confirm it by saying we are investigating. >> reporter: as recently as this march coming back thought he would be around longer. >> another 61/2 years. >> reporter: comey testified that late in the presidential campaign wrestling with whether he would speak to congress about the clinton investigation are concealed details, he prayed for a third door but it wasn't there. 6 months later comey was shown the door. in washington, peter ducey, fox news. speier thank you so much. donald trump set to meet with top diplomats, huddling with foreign minister, the highest level face-to-face between the us and russia since the commander in chief took office, donald trump and vladimir putin expected to meet in person for the first time at the g 20 summit in germany this july. the threat of terror attacks on american soil on the rise. a new homeland security report shows 8% increase in homegrown jihadists in the last month alone. just as more than all extreme
