2:17 am
running for president and the left wing of the party. a lot of criticism of this, the left side of the party, the left wing of the party controlling the party, creating the shutdown over something the moderates didn't think was necessary. 30 democrats voted to of the government back out, they lost their backbone in this deal, the decision from the party saying this is not the hill we should be dying on to shut down the government over illegal immigration. >> i don't think it was tied to one certain thing, democrats made a bad habit of selling out their base. it will be hard to get turnout up if democrats continue to do that. president obama made a promise to daca recipients and that promise hasn't been fulfilled. if democrats want democrats to turn out in 2018 they have one choice, stand with the base.

rob: the possible offer that was given to the wall, in exchange for daca and some other things, now that the budget is out of this negotiation and is simply an immigration negotiation do you think the president gets the wall? >> definitely lost a lot of their arguing tools especially in opening up the shutdown, no longer have that a hangover republican heads. we never are going to know what was said in the friday meeting but this is a win for trump if he does want the wall in terms of having something to hold over democrats. >> do you think the wall happens? >> i do, i don't think we will build it from the mexican border but we will upgrade security. rob: we have a few weeks to figure this out and we will talk

2:31 am
to california, british columbia to alaska, potential for significant inundation and it is expected or occurring because of that 8.2 earthquake just offshore and a shift in the ocean basin is why we have potential for water, a wall of water to come onshore. we don't have a lot of information, the watch and warning has been issued, coastal flooding possible as we are expecting waves to continue after the initial wave moves in. in some cases we won't have a lot of time to get to higher ground. that is why the national weather service issued the synonymy watch and tsunami warning, an area that could feel earthquakes in the ocean here, that triggers the potential for a tsunami but we don't have a lot of information, sometimes these preliminary reports are more dangerous than it actually is.
2:32 am
we can't give you expectation how big the tsunami wave is going to be or waves occurring after this. this is something we have to watch throughout the morning and we are hoping this isn't as significant as it potentially could be. rob: there is no rhyme or reason to them, sometimes you can get a synonymy and see nothing at all. >> we don't know this is a powerful earthquake that could trigger a life-threatening dangerous situation so we are on top of it and will keep you up-to-date. jillian: congressional republicans calling out the fbi for blaming a technical problem for five once a missing texts between officials in the clinton email in russia investigation. >> of course we need a special counsel to get to the bottom of

this and answer the questions we have. >> the doj will leave no stone unturned in searching for all these missing things. jillian: words we go from here, joining us is tom, thank you for joining us, you say not to believe this story. >> i don't buy that the texts are missing, judicial watch is found, low was learner's emails were missing, they really weren't missing, they were on backup tapes. hillary clinton says she doesn't have her email, turns out the fbi was able to recover 72,000 pages of those deleted or otherwise hidden emails. law enforcement techniques, can be recovered. and information to the fbi bureaucracy to figure out how
2:34 am
technically. to recover and restore and preserve any evidence, not just these two that i'm concerned about, other top fbi officials including mister comey, the number 2 at the fbi who is currently still there and recovered by this. . rob: we heard insurance policy for a couple months now, a phrase between peter and lisa page regarding how to prevent a trump election, what the speculation could be, now we heard secret society as a text message only trey gowdy has read, who knows what that could be? the timing is interesting, until the day robert mueller was assigned to look into this stuff.
2:35 am
that is the window all these messages have disappeared. >> the information during that time, you had the dossier being leaked, james comey showing donald trump, comey being fired, you had general flynn being ambushed, with an interview by the fbi at the white house by peter strzok and mister mueller being appointed, the last day the message was captured. the question what needs to be done in terms of criminal activity, criminal investigation, general sessions needs to take this seriously, he wants to get to the bottom of it but facing a raid. paul manaforte accused of raiding his home with guns
2:36 am
drawn. and law enforcement over there, and the text messages. >> we have seen a lot of text messages, between peter strzok and lisa page. and peter strzok says the pressure really starts to finish, the fbi, the clinton investigation, lisa page says it sure does. we never have. we look at the text messages that have been revealed, and the public is able to make a judgment and opinion on this. there are months of text messages that are gone. what do you think the public is supposed to think of this? >> the most charitable investigation, clinton text messages that came out, there
2:37 am
was much in the way of political sensitivity what was going on with the clinton investigation. they felt pressure to close out the investigation, the less charitable interpretation is we need to finish this up so hillary can beat out trump who we don't like. i don't understand why these agents are still at the fbi. if it was anyone else they would be washed out of the fbi. this is so frustrating because director ray is protecting andrew mc caleb and robert mueller, special counsel, removing this gentleman from the investigation in july of last year without telling it for four five months, there is a big ethics issue with robert mueller and the fbi with handling these text messages and how they handle the trump and clinton

2:46 am
permission has been granted and the main consideration is whether or not it would affect the soldiers active duty service. in chelsea's case she is not performing any military duties at this time given her status but there is a possibility that based upon that the secretary could grant permission to run for office. i don't know if there has been evidence of this request. >> do you think she should get permission? >> interesting issue. i don't think the army has any interest in keeping active duty service so this might be a case where the secretary would decide given her status, it is unlikely she would ever return to active service, would be a situation where permission should be granted. i don't know what other consideration the secretary should make on that but this is a case where they would grant
2:47 am
that. >> this was given to the daily caller. the statement is manning is currently on leave tending -- and on active duty. but in an unpaid status. you can see she is confused about her status and saying i'm not on active duty, this is weird conclusion based on the fact i have a court-martial appeal in the works. where is the confusion? >> technically she is still on active duty, the notion or program is not uncommon. soldiers who are actively serving a period of consignment that exceeds to what enlistment would be, in chelsea's case, waiting for her appeal to run, active duty, her confusion stems from the fact that she's not drilling or performing any services but that does not
