email earlier. [laughter] >> kimberly: don't forget to set your dvrs. "hannity" is up next. >> sean: this is a fox news alert, welcome to "hannity" tonight. ari fleischer, monica crowley, kellyanne conway, joe joe digenova, all here with reaction. the destroyed trump media is absolutely losing it all across the country tonight. continuing to lie about the president and his firing of james comey. tonight on this program we set the record straight. that is tonight's opening monologue. the destroyed trump propaganda media continues to do with the democrats dirty work by pushing insane to enhance conspiracy

theories and making ridiculous and factually inaccurate historical comparisons to president trump kicking james comey to the curb. watch this big lie. >> i have not seen anything like this since 1973 when richard nixon fired archibald cox. >> nixon didn't want when he did come out of the woodwork, that's when he famously said i am not a crook. >> firing archibald cox was the first shovel into richard nixon's political grave. and it always, always works like that. >> summer comparing this to watergate. >> it's understandable that some are comparing it to watergate. >> echoes of watergate. >> these are the kinds of mistakes that were made during watergate. >> archibald cox, are you

worried about a history repeating itself? >> sean: the level of ignorance here is breathtaking. the liberal crackpots in the media, they are now unhinged and suffering from a syndrome. trump derangement syndrome. they are willing to say anything, no matter how crazy it sounds. they want to damage this president and get them out of office and delegitimize him. the real reason president trump fire james comey is because the former fbi director was incompetent. he failed to faithfully execute the laws of this country and followed the principles of equal justice under the law. for not doing that, that made him a failure in that meant he needed to be fired. nbc news, a propaganda network, but take a look anyway. >> he is a showboat, a grandstander. the fbi has been in turmoil. i know that, you know that.

everybody knows that. you look at the fbi a year ago. it's in virtual turmoil. less than a year ago, it hasn't recovered from that. >> monday you met with rod rosenstein. did you ask for a recommendation? >> what i did was i was going to fire comey. my decision. it's because you had made the decision before it came out? >> there's no good time to do it, by the way. >> in your letter it said i accepted their recommendation. >> i was going to fire him regardless of the recommendation. highly respected, very good guy. very smart guy. the republicans like him, the democrats like him. he made a recommendation but regardless of that, i was going to fire comey. >> sean: the president didn't really have a choice here because comey was a complete and utter failure. he disrespected the constitution. he made a mockery of the rule of law. he did nothing.

while fourth amendment privacy rights in this country were being violated day in and day out. of course, the most dangerous part of what he has been doing is he created a two-tiered justice system. one for hillary, one for bill clinton, and one for the rest of us. take a look at the side of your screen. these are all the laws that hillary clinton broke with her private email server scandal. along with a clinton foundation, another big issue, clinton's server had top-secret information, special access program information. she deleted -- you can't delete 30,000 plus emails. she claimed they were personal about yoga, weddings, funerals, grandchildren and emailing with her husband -- who doesn't email. even james comey described her conduct in that closing argument when we thought he was going to indict her, at "extremely careless -- that's gross

negligence, can anyone tell me what the difference is? up to five foreign actors had hacked into hungry server. he did nothing. by the way, that likely put operatives in the field and their lives in danger. he of the foundation. the pay to play scheme. the clintons were literally lining their pockets with millions and millions of dollars while hillary was serving as secretary of state. you might remember, she signed off herself and giving the russians 20% of america's uranium. that horrible uranium one deal. she had a sign of personally on that. many of the people that were it involved donated millions and millions of dollars to the clinton foundation. moscow was doubling bill clinton's speaking fees. most recently, comey stood by while your fourth amended privacy rights were being trampled on with the obama

administration, unmasking american citizens. caught up in foreign surveillance incidentally. the one law we do know was broken in this whole russia dat date. it was against general mike flynn. she is incidentally picked up. they unmask flynn. and top classified information was released. that is a crime, a felony, a violation of the espionage act. as we have been saying, he got what he deserved. but the president let him collect a paycheck for as long as he did. the destroyed trump media and the democrats don't want you to know any of these facts and they are not reporting these facts. they are expanding on the lies like saying oh, comey asked for more money. that turned out not to be true today. that's why you will only hear about these issues right here on this show.

instead of what you have from the left and democrats, they are now feigning selective moral outrage. they are pretending to forget that just a few short months ago, most of them were calling for comey to be fired. the biggest hypocrite of all is senator crocodile tears chucky schumer. let's take a look at what he said about comey. this is the end of october. boy, his tune has changed. >> he owes not only secretary clinton but the american people an explanation for what appears to be an appalling action. he's got a big burden to prove so to speak for why he did what seems to be such an appalling act that goes against the tradition of prosecutors at every level of government. when i heard about it, i found it hard to believe that comey -- who i thought had some degree of integrity -- would do this. what comey did, what he did was appalling and prosecutors from one end of america to another know it.

>> sean: did you get that? appalling action. of course crying chuck wasn't on there. days before the election he went after james comey yet again by saying i did not have confidence in him any longer, to restore my faith i will have to sit down, talk to him, get an explanation for why he did this. now the donald trump's president, the king of hypocrisy is seeking a much different tune about james comey. take a look. >> well, mr. president, the dismissal of directors comey has raised many troubling questions over the last few days. this is about one of the most sacred things we believe in as americans. rule of law. rule of law. being threatened here. we know directors comey with a leading an investigation and whether the trump campaign

colluded with the russians. serious offense. for those investigations getting too close to home for the president? the dismissal of directors comey establishes a very troubling pattern. if deputy attorney general rosenstein does not appoint an independent special prosecutor, every american will rightly suspect that the decision to fire directors comey was part of a cover-up. >> sean: what happened about appalling actions and what happened to lost confidence in the comey? i want you to set your dvr in the very next segment of this show. we will show you a montage of every major democrat trashing jim comey. you don't want to miss it. and how they now have changed their tune. joining us personnel is ari fleischer. monica crowley. good to see you both. let me start with ari.

way beyond the hypocrisy, we have played this so often. there has not been -- since the russia conspiracy theory has started, not a single shred of evidence. that there was any collusion with the trump campaign. at that any vote was impacted at all by any actions that russia was involved in -- as a matter of fact, just the opposite was told. how is it these major networks -- you dealt with all these press outlets. how do they keep reporting one big lie conspiracy, night after night, day after day? >> you can add the accusation that the deputy attorney general threatened to resign. he said he did not threaten to resign. add that to the list of false reporting. i think there are several levels to this. let's start with the democratic hypocrisy. that is what is appalling. they should name the democratic party the hippocratic hypocrit.

the hyperventilating that has made people like me who are open-minded and want to see things a little more towards the middle totally turning against what the democrats are saying. they don't have credibility on these issues. if there is evidence that leads to the attorney general, he will take that action. there's been no evidence suggesting that's necessary. the way the democrats behave, they are the ones out of line. there are other things too but i want to come to that later. >> sean: monica, two huge breathlessly reported lies -- ari mentioned one of them. the deputy attorney general threatened to resign. that's false. that the fbi had just asked days before for more money to investigate the russian conspiracy. that turns out to be false.

every single major newspaper, every cable outlet -- every broadcast channel, news report. they expounded on those allies and i doubt they will correct the record tonight. >> i doubt that too, we have had leftist bias coming out of the mainstream media. ari knows this. it goes back for a long time. this is nothing new. what is new is two things. the level of activism on the part of the media. in creating fake news, perpetuating these lies. not ever correcting the record. the second thing that is new is donald trump. he is an alien organism that has been injected into the body politics by the american people, to reform the system. therefore, the entire political ruling class -- all of the ruling elites, that includes the media, sean, they're doing everything possible to reject him and puts push him out of te

system. that includes lying about him, his team, his record. i hope this president understands what he is up against here. he is not considered a normal president by the ruling class. again, including the media. therefore, he must not be allowed to succeed. >> sean: good to see you both. on this busy breaking news night, when we come back -- set your dvr. we will play you the mother of all montages. highlighting the left liberal hypocrisy on this issue. also tonight... >> i said if it's possible, will you let me know? in my under investigation? he said you are not under investigation. >> sean: president trump during an interview reiterated that james comey told him he was not under investigation by the fbi. three times. we will check in with kellyanne conway and also later tonight... >> she deleted the emails and

she has to go to jail! >> sean: the president had said multiple times that hillary clinton should be behind bars because of her email server scandal. could the fbi now reopen? should they now reopen the investigation since comey has been fired? we will investigate that and ask an important question, tonight here on "hannity" ." liberty mutual stood with me when this guy got a flat tire in the middle of the night, so he got home safe. yeah, my dad says our insurance doesn't have that. what?! you can leave worry behind when liberty stands with you™. liberty mutual insurance. this is the schmidt's yard. and, oh schmidt, that's a lot of dirt. but there's plenty of time for scotts outdoor cleaner plus oxiclean to work it's magic.

>> this was set up by the democrats. there is no collusion between me and my campaign and the russians. the other thing is, the russians did not affect the vote. >> sean: earlier today in an interview with lester holt, president trump said the former fbi director james comey told him he is not under investigation. watch this. >> we had a very nice dinner. at that time he told me you are not under investigation. you get all sorts of documents. i knew i wasn't under. i heard it was stated at some committee level that i wasn't. >> but it didn't come straightforward. >> and then during another phone call he said it. he said it once at dinner. and then he said it twice on a

phone call. >> did you ask him if you were under investigation? >> yes. i said if it's possible, will you let me know -- and my investigation? >> he said you are not under investigation. >> sean: trump called out democrats. he tweeted out... then he linked to this very funny, sad, but powerful video. >> comey acted in an outrageous way. i think it to take a hard look at what he has done. i think it would not be a bad thing for the american if you did step down. >> do you believe jim jim comey should resign? >> the president wants to fire comey immediately. they should initiate an investigation. >> there needs to be restoration and credibility of the fbi. >> sean: that's not all,

president trump also retweeted something rosie o'donnell tweeted back in 2016... trump retweeted. here with reaction, kellyanne conway is with us. it's such hypocrisy at such a high level. chuck schumer is the worst. nancy pelosi not far behind. harry reid is right in there with the rest of them. bernie sanders, poor bernie, and all of this, he should be the most angry at hillary clinton and james comey if you ask me. what is your reaction to the way the left is creating these bizarre conspiracies? >> they have absolutely no message. obstruct, deny, insinuate. i was looking back at a poll that was taken in march. in march, 41% of democrats said they had an unfavorable view of jim comey. at 12% said it was favorable.

why was 41% unfavorable? they were trashing the sky all through the fall. now they want to make him a martyr. what the president himself said -- with an interview with a different network, andrew mccabe said the firing of jim comey does not impact their ongoing investigations at all. the media print the opposite. they said they had resources. a single source, somebody close to the white house -- i don't know if they mean at a sandwich shop or coffee shop across the street, somebody close to the white house said mr. rosenstein had threatened to resign. the department of justice said that is simply not true. the rush to judgment, this presumptuous negativity. it makes these people lose their minds and become hypocrites.

>> sean: look, this is all fake news. the thought was -- you are right, what he said earlier today was absolutely true. the investigation continues. the president says he wants it to continue. >> and to conclude. leader mcconnell also said yesterday that the house and senate are investigating this. just let it keep going. >> sean: we know this is happened in past elections. we have been told by intelligence officials -- the greatest example, though of selective moral outrage happens to be the barack obama state department dollars. influencing elections is bad, why did he use his state department and political operatives to unseat one of our greatest allies, prime minister of israel, benjamin netanyahu? if influencing elections is so wrong, how come nobody seems to care about that?

>> people have selective amnesia about what was done in the past or what they even said in short order. i think the president made a decision this week. it was his decision to make. he was resolute, decisive. what we have seen in past decisions with earlier administrations. he said he had thought about it for a long time. he made the decision and it is final. the acting fbi director says that he can still go forward with everything as is. the other thing i want to mention -- the president is also talking about the economy and jobs, what is next on health care. he signed an executive order on cyber security. he is doing so many things. he is planning his first foreign trip with five different stops. a political poll said vast

majorities of americans support so many pieces of the spending that went through last week. nobody talks about that because it is positive of the president. >> sean: all these fake news networks -- they really are fake news -- they have been trying to come up with his liberal talking point, making comparisons that this is nixonian. the equivalent of the saturday night massacre when in fact, nixon was trying to stop an investigation and a special prosecutor. this president is not stopping it. there was no request for special funds. he wants to get answers and he set up an executive order to look into this type of fraud. and other issues involving the election as well today. >> usually people wouldn't do that. right before an election. he is doing it after he won the election decisively. he is doing it because he

believes in valid integrity and fairness of the process. people who are completely losing it over this just have to stop and look at the facts and listen to the sworn testimony. listen to the president himself in this interview. there's so much good news coming out of here that doesn't get covered because it's not titillating. yet these other polls that show he has very good approval ratings on how he's handling veteran issues and how he is handling terrorism. safety, security, prosperity. it's already happening. look at the manufacturing and job numbers. all these indicators that matter to people. they listen to news and don't listen to noise. >> sean: kellyanne conway. coming up on this busy breaking news night, right here on "hannity"... >> she deleted the email's!

she has to go to jail! >> sean: that was president trump saying that hillary clinton should be behind bars because of her private email server scandal. now that james comey has been fired, could this fbi now reopened the investigation? that is a real possibility. we will ask sara carter and joe digenova, next. also tonight... >> you obviously have been very critical of james comey in the past. he said he had no credibility. i assume you support the president's decision then to fire him as fbi director? >> no i do not necessarily. >> sean: [laughs] you have to laugh at this. democrats continuing to contradict themselves and show how hypocritical they really ar are. later tonight we get reaction from lou dobbs. please stay with us on this busy news night.

>> she deleted 30,000 emails after a subpoena. she gets a subpoena, and after -- not before -- that would be bad -- after getting the subpoena, she deleted the emails. she has to go to jail. >> sean: that was then candidate donald trump going after hillary clinton on the campaign trail for her private email server scandal. today, catherine herridge is reporting that a veteran former fbi agent told her the agency could in fact reopen the email probe now that james comey is gone. here with reaction, sara carter. joe digenova. joe, we have identified as many as 16 felonies she may have

committed. and we will put them up on the screen again. we know for a fact -- bribery, conspiracy, false statements, gross negligence in the handling of classified information. destroying information, 30 some odd thousand emails. she definitely could -- it should be set up. the grand jury. >> one of the most appalling things about the last years is under the obama administration and the fbi which was complicit in basically covering up an array of crimes were committed by mrs. clinton, the clinton global foundation, the initiative and all of that -- when you put together all of the pieces of the money that was paid to to to the former presit bill clinton while his wife was secretary of state, millions of dollars from foreign companies and countries, clearly designed

to create influence with her as secretary of state and when you look at the things she did in office -- by way of licenses, the granting of favors, to companies related to those speeches -- those foreign and domestic companies, it's an appalling array of criminal activity was ignored by the director of the fbi and to attorney generals in the obama administration. it requires -- if you want to have an independent commission for something, there should be one for wide the grand jury -- you don't have to convince me. i've been watching it for too many years. there should be a thorough investigation of why none of this was pursued. >> sean: sara carter, you've done such a good job. as i mentioned in my opening monologue, the one crimea was committed was the incidental surveillance, fair enough -- that's not a crime but the unmasking and leaking of

intelligence of general flynn. we heard from sally yates, she was never even questioned by comey about it. >> that is absolutely true, shawn. that's the crime that everyone points out. the leaking of that classified information and that private conversation between general flynn and sir jake has a lock why did the justice department or why has not the justice department called on thi to start an investigation into the leaks? maybe they have but as far as i know right now and from our own investigations, they have not. >> sean: then i can add, to sara -- the clinton foundation, all the people surrounding the uranium one deal. 20% of america's uranium. she signs off, goes to

vladimir putin and the people in and around that deal, giving the foundation millions of dollars -- in my little world, that is eight print quid pro q. >> if you're looking at it with $2.4 million that she received between 2009-2013 from uranium one -- also the money that bill clinton received from his speeches which totals to half a million dollars. they were connected to the kremlin. the people that actually gave that money were connected to promoting uranium one. >> sean: unbelievable. >> that's enough to start an investigation. >> sean: between the email server scandal, what sara just mentioned on the uranium one deal. funding millions to the

foundation. the unmasking and releasing of intelligence in the case of general flynn, timmy, we have overwhelming incontrovertible evidence in every case that hillary clinton committed. am i wrong? >> i think there's reason to believe there are very serious crimes that were committed. the only one we know was investigated with the email server. we know the fbi director falsely stated with the lie law was inr to give her a pass. any good u.s. attorney or fbi field agent would not begin an investigation into the clinton global initiative and the foundation. there is overwhelming evidence that bribery occurred and that official acts were given as a result. >> sean: they talk about grossn standard. comey said in his 30 minute closing argument that she was

extremely careless. is there a difference between extremely careless and gross negligence? >> no, they are identical. one of the grave sins james comey committed was to misstate the law, to misapply her and to make believe that nothing was actually actionable. he did it for political purposes. >> can you imagine if people moved classified information to their home and private servers and they don't get charged? >> sean: five foreign intelligence services got our top secrets. good to see you both. we will have you back. we will follow this until we get to the truth. coming up next on the breaking news night here on "hannity"... >> the russians are coming. >> sean: the russians are coming. it democrats continue peddle

what's in your wallet? >> sean: welcome back to "hannity." it has been two days since president trump fired james comey. democrats naturally lost it. some of their public comments have become downright laughable. this includes senator cory booker who sees himself as a modern day paul revere. at the british are coming. watch this. >> we have to get back to the focus of what is going on right now. a moment in american history where we have had an unprecedented attack on our election. how are we as a nation going to respond? donald donald trump clearly hast taken this seriously. the russians are coming, they are intending not only to attack this past election but what will our response be?

when the french election -- with what is happening -- they continue to come at this country. this is a paul revere moment. the russians are coming. >> sean: the russians are coming. the russians are coming. and my favorite, maxine waters who has been calling for president trump's impeachment for months. her hypocrisy was on full display. >> you obviously have been very critical of james comey in the past. you said he had no credibility. i assume you support the president's decision than to fire his fbi director? >> no, i do not necessarily. support the president's decision. >> if hillary clinton had won the white house, would you have recommended that she had fired james comey? >> let me tell you something. if she had won the white house, i believe -- given what he did to her and what he tried to do, she should have fired him. yes. >> so this is why am confused.

she should have fired him but he shouldn't have fired him. >> sean: the only person that seems confused is congresswoman waters. i don't justify the firing if trump does it. >> maxine waters has her own perspective as you and i both know. cory booker is the fella -- sean, i swear. doesn't he realize the democrats missed their paul revere moment altogether when the fbi was knocking on the door of the dnc? not only on the russians coming, they are there and they have broken into your servers and were told to go away by the dnc. we still don't know why they got away with that. >> sean: exactly. how did they get away with the fbi not looking at their servers and they bring in their own people? >> the dems aren't demanding a full on special prosecutor,

every kind of investigation -- to find out why the dnc could get away with telling the fbi to go away? we are not going to worry about the russians. >> sean: how do you give an immunity deal to two people and then lou, i have never heard about this -- and all the years we've been broadcasting together -- and then let them destroy their laptops, the evidence in the case? >> i suppose you could make the case that if you're going to do one, you might as well do the other. 13 handheld devices. laptops going every which way -- they do find one and it's anthony weiner's laptop stocked up with all kinds of unclassified data but we don't want to bother anybody so we will just move on. >> sean: yeah, we don't want to bother anybody. i think it would be a horrible

assignment for any fbi guy to look through that thing. does this now open up the possibility, she is going to have a real investigation? >> absolutely. i don't care, whomever trump puts in as head of the fbi, if the purpose is to restore the integrity and trust of the american public and this great agency, as we heard today by andrew mccabe -- the rank and file agents wanted her prosecuted. it's time to reopen the case and come to a conclusion that says justice for all in america. >> sean: every fbi agent i know said that to me privately in person. good to see you. up next, tonight on this busy breaking news night here on "hannity" ."

>> although we did have a lot of fun fighting hillary, didn't we? right? [cheers and applause] >> sean: that was president trump back in december during his thank you tour. the crowd started chanting "lock her up." now that james comey have been fired, should the president grant supporters wish? it's really not his decision. that will be up to the attorney general and others in this case. joining us now, pam bondi. do you have any doubt the evidence is overwhelming and incontrovertible and i will put up the laws that she has violated, that she broke the law, committed felonies on this? >> sean, you've laid the case out multiple times. i think we all know not only did

she get a pass, it wasn't negligent -- it was criminal, everything that she has done. the president however now -- we have a separation of powers. he is clearly respecting that. as president of the united states, he has said it would make it more divisive. we need to move on. he is focused on policy. focused on not pull arising our any further. focused on working together, creating health care laws, doing all the positive things he wants to do. hillary clinton condemning james comey for her losing the election? she should be writing him a thank you note that she's not in prison right now. she should be writing you a thank you note that you are not director of the fbi. if you had been, she would have been in prison, sean. >> sean: attorney general pam bondi, this is really important. the president doesn't have a say in this.
