7:00 pm
>> jesse: we are out of time, one more thing, dana perino and her dog fixation, were going to get to that later. set your dvrs for the next episode of "the five," "hannity" is up next. >> many thanks to all of our friends, this is a fox news alert. president trump sets the record straight about the violence and child spill, it was an epic beat down of the liberal mainstream establishment media. they are now in full complete panic meltdown mode. unlike president obama, the president said he'll wait for fax to come out instead of rushing to judgment on things like this happen. that is tonight's very important breaking news, calm opening monologue. once again, we have to give you news and information you will not get it from the destroyed trump establishment media. despite president trump repeatedly condemning the
7:01 pm
horrific inexcusable acts of violence and of course white supremacy again and again, all that took place in charlottesville this weekend, democrats, the destroyed trump media continue to viciously attack the commander-in-chief and accuse him of being racist and bigoted. just like they accuse republicans. we've chronicled this how many years? every two to four years, they do that during elections. earlier today, the president fought back he did it in a big way pretty let the media have us during a press event as trump tower where he once again condemned these white supremacist groups. watch this. >> president trump: i've condemned neo-nazis. i've condemned too many different groups but not all of those people were neo-nazis, believe me. not all of those people were white supremacists by any stretch. you had a grip on one side and you had a grip on the other and they came at each other with clubs and it was vicious and a horrible thing to watch.
7:02 pm
if there is another side, there was a group on this side, you can call them the left that's came violently attacking the other group. you can say what you want but that's the way it is. >> sean: he also repeatedly called out the fake news media to watch this. as mack if the press were not fake and it was honest, the press would have said what i said was very nice. unlike you and unlike the media, before i make a statement, i like to know the facts. it was a horrible, horrible day. wait a minute, i'm not finished. i'm not finished, fake news. >> sean: the mainstream media once again hysterical, complete meltdown mode today. president trump told some truths, there are a lot of truths here. white supremacist groups, they are disgusting, they are despicable, all people of goodwill and conscience agreed. there was both sides causing violence, this is out of control
7:03 pm
violence. it is complete mayhem. the people that provoked this, i'll agree, they were the white supremacists. they are the ones that are most responsible. let me say this about some of the protesters, they came out for all the right reasons. this brings out a more oblate justifiable in people. people that are that ignorant. it does not give these ultraleft protesters, of good conscience the rights to attack them, punch them, hit them et cetera. we completely disagree with everything these white supremacist group stands for, believe in, they're not conservatives, they're not republicans, we don't know these people. a small percentage of the population. under the first amendment in this country, they have a race to say hateful awful and even racist things whether we like it or not. the aclu tonight, one of the biggest trump hitting groups even defended these white supremacists and their right to hold a rally. they said the first amendment is a critical part of our democracy, it protects vile,
7:04 pm
hateful and ignorant speech. for this reason, the aclu of the virginia defended the white supremacist whites to merge, we will not be silent in the face of white supremacy. those that stand in silence enable it included the president. the aclu also tweeted not sure, pay attention, they're repeating with the president said. not sure who provoked first come up both sides were hitting each other. at justice park before the police arrived. they also added the guy on the ground is eight unite the right protester, those in black and red are anti-for protesters. where are the police? has anyone asked that question tonight? why did the democratic governor of this city why did they not order the police to stop the violence sooner? if the police were outgunned like terry mcauliffe said, why did he not request the national guard he called in?
7:05 pm
the destroyed trump media, they will never, ever be satisfied with how many times the president condemns racism, violence, white supremacy, bigotry, the likes of which we saw this weekend in charlottesville. how may times this is president has to say at coursework with take a look at his original comments on this before the white supremacist madman clouded to people with his car. here's what the president tweeted soon after. the president went on to say. last night if you are member on the program, i showed you how many times over the years has the president condemned white supremacy? condemned to the clan, condemned david duke, the media never
7:06 pm
points that out. after the protest turned deadly, he immediately came out and immediately condemned what was going on. watch this. >> president trump: we condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides. on many sides. >> sean: the strongest possible terms, the aclu says there were two sides here. all weekend long, the media in this country, they were unhinged pretending that they didn't know what the president was even talking about, they ran wild with a narrative that he didn't mention the groups by name, so somehow that makes him sympathetic to these white supremacists. so president trump came out yesterday. he condemned what happened. he called out the screws by nam. >> president trump: racism is evil and those that call violence in its name are terminals and thugs including the kkk, neo-nazis, white
7:07 pm
supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as americans. >> sean: hate groups, repugnant to everything we hold dear. that's not good enough for the media and the left wing in this country. a quick sidebar, where was the media was at six weeks ago? a bernie sanders supporter targeting republicans at a baseball practice, leaving congressman steve scalise, the third ranking republican in the house of representatives fighting for his life? he had an assassination of republicans last? where was the media blaming the democrats the way they are blaming trump? back to the topic at hand. after condemning these groups, president trump had to explain to the press exactly why he didn't immediately jump to conclusions like for example president obama did again and again when things happened, take a look at this. >> president trump: when i make a statement i like to be
7:08 pm
correct. i want to the facts. this event just happened. a lot of the event didn't even happen yet as we were speaking. it just happened. before i make a statement, i need the facts. i don't want to rush into a statement, so making the statement when i made it was excellent. >> sean: when you think about it, he's right we need to learn from the mistakes of barack obama. nobody especially the president of the united states should have a rush to judgment and make a situation worse. president obama did it numerous times in these high-profile racial cases when he was president and he rushed to conclusions before facts came out. take a look. >> the cambridge police acted stupidly. there is a long history in this country of african-americans and latinos being stopped by law enforcement. disproportionate spirit that's just a fact.
7:09 pm
when trayvon martin was first shot, i said this could've been my son. >> we have to how justice applied, how it is experience, that's what we saw in ferguson this summer when michael brown was killed and the community was divided. >> sean: present obama rush to judgment and for high-profile cases, he got the facts wrong in the end. it led to false narratives being created, lies being spread like michael brown hands up, don't shoot, i've covered these issues in detail. then there's the issue of the leftist destroying public property, tearing down monuments like we saw happening yesterday in north carolina. you can disagree with the statements you may not like these monuments, you can fight politically. you can shout people down and say anything you want to say. is there not to the rule of law that needs to be applied here? you can go up so far with speech and say anything you want, you can't punch, you can't tackle.
7:10 pm
you can't fight with people just because you hate what they're saying even when what they say is disgusting. even the aclu agrees with me and the president on that tonight. the president reacted to this issue, take a look. >> president trump: you had people in that group who were there to protest the taking down to them a very, and very important statue and renaming of a park from robert e. lee to another name. george washington was a slave owner, was george washington a slave owner? will george washington now looses status, are we going to take down what's mark are we going to take down statues to george washington? how about thomas jefferson, what do you think of thomas jefferson, do you like him? are we going to take down the statue? he was a major slave owner. are we going to take his statue. >> sean: not stomach joining
7:11 pm
is now of "new york times" best seller understanding trump, former speaker of the house newt gingrich. i want to go over truth here. as somebody that lived in georgia and the south, what's happening to these monuments, i think you have a very unique perspective and also the historical perspective you have. i want to first go over the president repeatedly now fortes has condemned white supremacist them, david duke, the clan, and all these groups. i watch the media today and they go insane because he says you know what? there was violence on both side sides. not all, but there was. the media went insane because he said it, what's your reaction? >> first of all everybody who went insane is insane. the american civil liberties union in their twitter feed, i
7:12 pm
want to give joe credits for tracking this town and getting it to me. the aclu in their twitter feed is set both came for violence. the video you're looking at, you see people on the left who are being violent, people on the right being violent. the truth is president trump is telling the american people the truth and the elite media headset and the left hates it. he's gone right at the heart of the big lie on the left. most of the violence we've seen politically this year has been on the left. they're not putting a $9,000 escape door into the chancellor of the university of california berkeley's office to hide from right-wingers, they're hiding from students. the students who blocked conservatives from speaking went on the right, they're on the left. let's be clear here what we are with in this country. i think we should condemn neo-nazis. they are an anti-christian,
7:13 pm
totalitarian, anti-semitic movement. we should be tough on them. i think we should condemn racism. i think we should condemn racism on both sides. i think you have a very strong case here that there are people who have been out there advocating shooting cops, those weren't right-wingers. let's be clear. there is more than enough blame on both the right and the left to say we're tired of all of you, cut it out or were going to put you in jail. >> sean: let me ask about the president saying -- he spoke out on saturday. i read his tweets again, he spoke out on monday, he spoke out today. he said it again and again specifically naming them. he said he waited until he had a facts. i compared it to what obama did, he rush to judgment, ferguson, missouri, the cambridge police. wrong on all counts because he didn't wait for evidence, testimony, faxed to commit for
7:14 pm
it wasn't right for the president to condemn the hatred what we saw on saturday, wait for the facts and do what he did on monday and today? >> i have to confess, i saw live on saturday his statement, we both thought it was pretty clear and direct bridget this is man a candidate who repudiated david , repudiated the ku klux klan. this is a man who in his inaugural address says to the entire country, we all bleed the same color. you cannot be a patriotic american and be a racist. he's very clear. i think he's starting out saturday thinking i'm going to add to what i've already been saying. i suspect he was shocked at the level of hostility including among some republicans that he had to be very specific. he comes back and he's very
7:15 pm
specific. how can you be more specific than this? then he makes the mistake of telling the truth about violence on the left. all of us on the media has to go crazy again. i think it's time to draw a line in the sand and say everybody in this country who wants to lead a big lie, watch the elite media, watch the left wing democrats because they represent a big lie, it's worse than fake news. it is a big lie. >> sean: we've both lived in georgia. we now have instances with other cities, no baltimore, you saw it in durham, north carolina, ripping down statues of our founders and our framers spurred the president talks today about george washington was a slave owner. thomas jefferson was a slave owner. are we now heading towards a point, it's up to the states to decide where we are now going to watch history being removed from city after city after city, is that where we are headed in
7:16 pm
stone mountain, georgia. i know you've been to stone mountain. there is a carving on stone mountain. you have the president of the confederacy up there, jefferson davis and others. is that going to be sandblasted next week? >> i asked that question in an email a while ago to a friend of mine. let's be clear. i think it's perfectly reasonable for an african-american looking at somebody who fought to protect slavery to be deeply offended. there's a huge difference between washington and jefferson and jackson who may have been slave owners but they were all moving towards a world that had less slavery, not a world that have more slavery. people were fighting to protect slavery, to protect slave trading and let me also save for the audience, i was born in harrisburg, pennsylvania, i grew up in an integrated united states army, i moved to georgia as a junior in high school. those people are going to say he's a georgian.
7:17 pm
i'm sitting at as a historian. if a city wants to take a statue out of the center of the city and put it in a museum, that makes some sense. i don't think we want to be like the taliban who were destroying buddhist temples. i don't think we want to be like isis which was destroying historic monuments and you have a great deal of people on the left who if they could destroy our entire memory of america, they would wipe it out and we would have no knowledge of what it meant to be an american. we need to draw some lines in the sand. >> sean: will have more with speaker gingrich right at the break. also laura ingraham will weigh on the president. firing back earlier today, all the issues ahead, straight ahead . that's a marathon. and he does it with dr. scholl's. only dr. scholl's has massaging gel insoles that provide all-day comfort to keep him feeling more energized. dr. scholl's. born to move.

that doesn't sound like jack. actually, jack would say, hey mate, just cool it to minus 160 and we're set. good on ya. oh yeah. that's jack.

♪ good evening, i'm live in homewood, alabama, throughout the state election night, watch parties are going on in the special primary to fill the u.s. senate seat once held by attorney general jeff sessions. luther strange who was appointed to fill the vacancy has been having a very good night apparently bolstered by the endorsement of president trump, also enjoying strong support from the republican establishment. throughout the campaign, republican mo brooks tried to capitalize on antiestablishment sentiment among voters.
7:22 pm
it was another republican at roy moore who had a very strong showing this evening, resonating with voters, analysts say he may have benefited from low voter turnout because of his loyal and active following of religious conservatives who remember him as the ten commandments judge. the associated press is projecting they will face each other in a runoff in september. >> president trump: i think they've gotten better, they've been afraid for a long time. you can ask president obama about that because he makes speeches about it. i believe the fact that i brought in it will be soon at millions of jobs. you see companies are moving back into our country, i think that's going to have a tremendous positive impact on race relations and i'll tell you were spending a lot of money on the inner cities, we are fixing the inner cities. we are doing far more than anybody has done with respect to
7:23 pm
the inner cities, it's a priority for me. >> sean: that was the president addressing this week's violence in charlottesville. we continue more with former speaker of the house newt gingrich. i watch the media that is so openly hostile to him, it doesn't seem to matter anymore what he's going to say or do. you have made this point many times in this program. there's a pretty profound point there. if you look at the obama years i've given the statistics many times, 50 million americans in poverty. 50 million on food stamps, 13 million more on food stamps after obama, 8 million more on property. lowest labor participation rate. we now have a million new jobs and what i hear the president saying as we fix the economy, we created an opportunity in society. if we build in job creation, we built wealth and prosperity in society it goes a long way, if every american has their shot at the american dream, does that help race relations in america?
7:24 pm
>> i think you ought to draw stents to make a distinction. i think for the average african-american, a better job, safer neighborhood, greater opportunity to have a better future, i think it does help. etiquette helps bring us together as a people. on the other hand, there's an entire block of people who want to use racism and left-wing ideology to consciously split us. many of these are in the elite media, they are doing it deliberately. we have to have the guts to take them head on. we have to point out that it was not president trump's policies that led 4,000 people to get shot in chicago last year. it wasn't his policies that made baltimore a nightmare in terms of people getting killed. what you've had is a decay in this country under left-wing policies that has led to dramatic depth of poverty, dramatic collapse of the law and a sense of helplessness. i think trump is the first real opportunity to begin to turn all
7:25 pm
of that around, started with going after these renegade cities that refused to get illegal criminals out of the city and refused to cooperate with the federal government. >> sean: i'm not finished, fake news and the president calling out the media repeatedly today. when he said it i openly laughed out loud because they are so hostile to him. everything that he said about white supremacy and the people responsible for hatred this weekend, it has no impact on them. after he made the comments on fake news, he just repudiated everything he's been saying all weekend. i'm like no he didn't. >> right. you made a point earlier that i want to get into in the first segment. the reason obama was consistently wrong when he would get into these kinds of problems as he took the view of the elite
7:26 pm
media which is just wrong. the recent trump is going to turn out to be right, the american civil liberties union, the aclu which has said he's right, they didn't say he is right but they said it's correct to say that the violence in charlottesville was on both sides. trump because he doesn't rely on "the new york times" and "the washington post," he's looking at reality. he's getting real reports from the department of justice. he's also using his head. he's using common sense. i think it's important to recognize the elite media is in a frenzy to undermine him and if possible drive him from office. and what really is eight news media coup against the people of the united states however elected the president he's supposed to get four years in office even if cnn doesn't like it. they're going to do everything they can to isolate him, drive him down and tried to destroy him. >> sean: thanks so much for

7:31 pm
>> president trump: the driver of the car is a disgrace to his family and his country. you can call as terrorism. you can call it murder. you can call it whatever you want. i would just call it as the fastest one to come up with a good verdict, that's what i call it. there is a question, is it murder? is a terrorism? at the new get legal semantics. the driver of the car is a murderer. what he did was a horrible, horrible, inexcusable thing. >> sean: that was the president earlier today talking about the driver of the car that rammed into a group of protesters this past weekend in charlottesville, killing one woman injuring several others. joining us now with reaction is laura ingraham.
7:32 pm
let's respond to everything the president said today, get your overall impression. >> it was an interesting day to come out. he clearly was torched by the media's coverage and reaction to his first statement and then his follow-up statement. from his performance today, it's clear that he believes he really can't ever get credit from the media. they are never going to say good job on that. i'm glad you said that, they're never going to say that to him. i think he's really frustrated by that. it spilled over in some of the back and reporters. the for a lot of us it's very entertaining. >> sean: i'm not finished fake news. >> i'm not done yet. i'm always thinking long term here, how does today advanced the trump agenda? whether it's infrastructure, the ostensible reason for that press conference or tax reform or anything else. i'm not sure today advanced that
7:33 pm
interest but it also did give americans who are kind of tired of the hate and the extremism on both sides, it gave them a little bit of a breather to some extent. he's at least saying now, everybody seems to be out of control, calm down. let's move forward, call this what it is, it was murder, terrorism, whatever you want to call it but it's unacceptable in today's society. i think he's unequivocal he could've been that pacific on saturday, it probably would have been better for him and better for the long term of this country. there are some people out there, they're never going to be satisfied with what he says. no matter what he says in response to any crisis, they are going to ridicule him or satirize him or say he's dumb or he doesn't really care. he's in egomaniac, pick your poison. he's not trying to satisfy them. >> sean: they are actually saying whether narrative was all weekend, the president must be
7:34 pm
racist but he doesn't condemn white supremacist. i've now played the history of everything he said from the weekend about this incident, about white supremacy, about david duke et cetera, et cetera. he said at all. there is a simple truth, there were people on the other side that did partake in violence. whether the instigators? no, i blame the white supremacist. if there were some people who may be had not white supremacist views who believe in heritage and history who have other motivation on history at hand, i believe that too paired with the people who wanted with righteous indignation go after white supremacist? yeah, they're standing up against what is morally reprehensible. if you watch this video, you see this fighting, there is violence there on both sides. >> there's an interesting piece in the daily color, one of the people who was at that event,
7:35 pm
the united the right side, i don't know what this group is. they just went through very specifically how the police failed to lead to crowd dispersed. that group, the right wing group, the white supremacist group i guess they weren't all white supremacist but some of the more. a lot of them were trying to get out of there. they were all shuttled into this one area of the park where the antifa crowd was waiting for them with rocks and bats. it got more out of hand. i'm not taking anything away from the fact that the white supremacist who showed up, showed up looking for trouble. i think a lot of them did. they were the instigators here. even the police chief yesterday said -- >> sean: were learning too. where was terry mcauliffe in the national guard? how much did they know ahead of time? what did you think about the president's comments, he starts talking about it's up to states
7:36 pm
and local municipalities what they want to do in terms of dealing with history. where does it end? he brought up washington, he brought up jefferson, slaveholders. where does it end? >> where is the litmus test? where is it written? i understand there is this newfound outrage and level of offense it has reached this fever pitch about these statues. i think a lot of people have driven by these statues for decades and never thought twice about them but now they become a political symbol. if at the symbol that represents the racist past or any vestige of a racist pass of the south, they're going to be able to say that have to go too. i don't know how far they wanted tickets. maybe they will take it to certain books that they think are offensive, certain speakers on college campuses who are offensive. it's a simple and people can do what they want with symbols. they can vote to get rid of all of them.
7:37 pm
then i think we have to ask the question, what next? how are we going to heal as a nation, condemn that which is evil and come together as a country. >> sean: laura ingraham, good to see you. when we come back, democrats continue to attack the president over his response to charlottesville. the president fired back hard today. we got more of us to straightveh ahead valve problem. but no matter what path i take, i go for my best. so if there's something better than warfarin, i'll go for that too. eliquis. eliquis reduced the risk of stroke better than warfarin, plus had less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis had both. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily... ...and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop.

>> live in homewood, alabama, throughout this state, this one behind me going on for one of the candidates luther strange. internet's special election, a total of nine republicans and seven democrats are vying for the seat held by attorney general jeff sessions. if the associated press now projects doug jones winning the democratic primary outright, passing that 50% threshold. the ap projects republicans are heading to a runoff between chief justice roy moore a favorite among the religious conservatives and luther strange who was appointed to fill the vacant senate seat back in february. >> president trump: i wanted to make sure unlike most
7:42 pm
politicians that what i said was correct, not make a quick and statements. the statement i made on saturday was a fine statement. it takes a little while to get the facts, you still don't know the facts. it's a very, very important process to me. it's an important statement. >> sean: that was the president earlier today explaining his original statement but the violence in charlottesville. senior fellow at freedom works, syndicated on red state talk radio. the president blamed both sides for the violence. one of the local chapters of the aclu, both sides were hitting each other. it seems like the media can't handle what is obviously a trut truth. >> i think that's the case.
7:43 pm
they want to blame everything on one side, there is violence on both sides. if i remember the timeline correctly, it was not exactly clear who drove the car into the crowd. i think a lot of people assumed neo-nazi did it turned out that the case. i think when the statement is made it wasn't entirely clear yet. there's a names involved all this, it's not part of the discussion. he is the person that police arrested for driving the car into the crowd of protesters killing one person and injuring 19 others. his name is not part of the debate, not part of the discussion. i don't see any anger directed against the person who gunned the engine who slammed into these people it's all directed against president trump as if he were the person behind the wheel of the car. >> sean: how many times, i know you come from the ministry. i know you believe in forgiveness, we've all sinned, fallen short. you come from a much better place in life, i mean that with all due deference to the fact that you're a reverend.

how many times of the president has to say he condemns white supremacist that he contends david duke, he condemns neo-nazis. we played a montage where he said it again and again, we played it yesterday and he said again today. the media said he's taking back his statements, i don't see it. >> the present is it showing incredible courage and grace under fire. the identity politics that the left is trying to play here is fed with the flames of emotionalism centered around race. that is the only way that they have been able to capture and keep a voting block for over 60 years. i was born and confederate memorial hospital in shreveport, louisiana. i am a living, breathing testament that monuments and symbols and those types of things do not hinder the american dream for anyone who

wants to achieve it. this president in my estimation is about restoring the american dream which does the message to greatness. >> sean: the ladder of success, the opportunity, i know you talk a lot about this over the years. what about the president saying local been as apologies decide the monuments they want or don't want. >> weikel at washington, d.c., why don't we rename the capital of the united state's courts mark he. ulysses s. grant owned a slave, let's blow up his tomb. let's take all of the confederate statues today when we melt them down into steel ingots. what does that do for job creation in black communities, how does it improve health care for americans across the countr country. >> sean: the media doesn't
7:46 pm
take it that way. it seems like there's nothing he can do this ever going to satisfy them, the breathlessness of coverage. >> on saturday he renounced the kkk, they would say what about david duke? if he had denounced david duke, they would say but what about spencer? >> sean: i'm a reagan conservative, i don't know those people. do you? >> i've been attending conservative meetings since i was in high school. i go to meetings here in new york, i don't see these alterative people. i don't accept them as conservatives. >> sean: good to see you both. when we come back i'm a huge news. clinton email scandal, what happened on the tarmac. bill clinton, loretta lynch, news tonight a huge development. jay sekulow and gregg jarrett will weigh in

>> sean: on this program, we've been calling for special counsel to investigate hillary clinton and numerous scandals. now the washington times is reporting the email case is far from closed as the fbi hands over more classified documents to states. the american center for law and
7:51 pm
justice is reopening its foia request over the clinton-lynch tarmac meeting. chief counsel for the american center of law and justice, jay sekulow, and gregg jarrett. you were lied to on the fbi originally on your foia request, they said no such documents exist. it was a back-and-forth between the fbi and the justice department, 481 pages. they put talking points togethe together. the never sent you the talking points, they put a black page up. >> let me tell you what happened, we put on the request. et cetera the lettered the meeting between the attorney general loretta lynch and president bill clinton. no documents that we had pursuant to your request, those documents don't exist. the same request to the department of justice they didn't respond at all. we got a court order demanding
7:52 pm
release of the documents and we get those documents two weeks ago, in it are documents between the fbi and the department of justice, of course the fbi was saying we had no such documents. we raised it right here on your broadcasts, we raised it with the lawyers at the various departments including the department of justice. in those email exchanges, one of the email exchanges involved not just somebody in the fbi but the chief of staff to james comey receiving information on talking points on how to handle the clinton lynch meeting that took place in arizona. we put a lot of pressure on the fbi to do what's right since we got the documentation. >> sean: you were lied to, the doj and fbi should never -- what are you holding up? >> i'm holding here a letter from the united states federal bureau of investigation that said we reopened the foia request and are now giving us
7:53 pm
the documents relevant to our inquiry. as well as to the talking points, this was in crisis management mode for the department of justice with loretta lynch. james comey made a big deal about that when he came out about hillary clinton in july of last year saying when he testified earlier this year. it was that interchange of the tarmac that got me so concerned. his chief of staff knew about it within hours after it happened. he didn't bother to go back over to the department of justice and say this may be a violation of existing law and statutes. he didn't bother to do that. this is important, the fbi has now reopened. they redacted not one page email, a three-page email with the talking points. >> they claimed a particular privilege, i looked it up, the deliberations privilege, it doesn't apply to this case. talking points don't constitute deliberate movements.
7:54 pm
it's also absurd that there were never as james comey said any documents. after penalty of perjury, there are no documents related to the tarmac, there are hundreds of them. there are three possibilities here. either comey lied or he didn't get the request. >> sean: it's hard to believe that he didn't know. >> either they lost the documents and then suddenly been found or they didn't understand the request. the request is a standard boilerplate that every lawyer is familiar with, hand over all documents pertaining to the tarmac meeting, that's everything. that's because something else really quick. the letter from the fbi denying that there was any information relevant to us was signed by the same section chief for the
7:55 pm
dissemination units, the same one that signed it a year later. signed by the same guy who came back and said were going to go back and check because obviously they know we got those documents. >> sean: on a scale of 1 to 10 how big is this? >> i think this is very significant, i would give it a ten, i'll tell you why. just think about what took place in the tarmac. that is not the way equal justice -- that's been the theme of this. that's not the way equal justice under the law works. >> sean: i agree with you, it's a lot of news every night. when we come back, an important question of the day, straight ahead. no thanks. for me... it's aleve. put under a microscope, we could see all the bacteria that still exists. polident's unique micro clean formula works in just 3 minutes, killing 99.99% of
