the time is now. we must organize, challenge and resist. [applause] >> 5 democrats including joe kennedy and bernie sanders made public responses. the democrats who did show up for the state of the union sent a clear message of discussed for the president's message and some like nancy pelosi and senator chuck schumer are being criticized for their exasperation conservative radio host rush limbaugh is happy americans got to see them for who they truly are. >> i was happy, i was happy the democrats sat and didn't applaud and didn't stand up. i was happy. i wanted the american people to see it. i was happy when nancy pelosi had her sourpuss face like it

wasn't working or something. i loved it when they looked at each other with confusion as if to say they are applauding that? democrats looked confused when republicans were applauding time and time again because they genuinely don't get it. >> according to a new poll donald trump's approval rating jumped up to 42% after the first state of the union address, that is up from 32% last month. donald trump could decide today is the controversial pfizer memo. a former fbi special agent joins us next, why he says every day americans deserve the truth. a person of interest questioning the las vegas massacre. the gun dealer who sold the ammo to stephen paddock just said.

>> the clash between the fbi and the white house growing over the release of the controversial republican memo and any minute now donald trump could make a decision on whether to release it. here is former fbi special agent who joined us to talk more about this.

thank you, we appreciate it. let's get right to the latest, the partial statement from the fbi, they released this yesterday saying we have grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo's accuracy but originally when nunez first said he was going to release this they said they couldn't dispute any facts within it. what do you think? >> i tell you, when you omit key facts to a document that is a summary of thousands and thousands of documents in itself he omissions can have grave consequences. i think all of us, every american sitting at home right now wants to have full transparency, not partial transparency anymore from anyone in washington and i'm talking republicans and democrats. any politician there are equally

withholding information from the american public. if you take a document, four page summary i could give you a four page summary of the bible but i can omit john 3:16, god so loved the world he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life, jesus and i'm the way, the truth, the life, and other key, critical, completely deceived you of the truth and the only fact that matters that separates christianity from all the religions that jesus is god. that is dire consequences. doing the same thing with a memo of thousands and thousands of documents and paring it down to four pages can completely be misconstrued and have dire consequences. >> the fbi from what i understand, when they went to take a look at the fbi memo on

sunday had 30 minutes and there were two or three other fbi members who took a look at it and they came out with this response and as of late last night a report there were changes made. whether those changes were made by republicans or the fbi out of their concern democrats are saying wait a minute, the memo has been changed. here is what devon nunez had to say in response to the statement. saying having stonewalled congress's demand for information for nearly a year no surprise the fbi and doj issue objections to allowing the american people to see information related to surveillance abuses of these agencies, do you think this is just another effort to stonewall? >> no. it is an effort, you pair down something to four pages and omit key facts you can make it say whatever you want to to say. you can do that and i think the fbi is saying when the american public doesn't have the full

totality of all of the fact if we release a four page memo i'm all for that, let's also release the pfizer application, let's release the woods review file that goes with it that backs every factual assertion in the affidavit. let's release the contents of what the pfizer warrant is gleaning during the investigation, let's see the totality of everything and then the american public, you and me and the second balcony at the state of the union, americans who deserve to hear the truth can know everything. will that happen? that will never happen and that is just being lied to because the politicians in dc, i am just sick and tired of seeing this political ball go back and forth. >> the american people have a right to decide on their own, i agree with you about that 100%. thank you, great to have you join us with your insight. >> appreciate it, have a great

day. >> the time is 20 minutes after the top of the hour. sick and tired, the head of ice slamming liberals who turn immigration agents into the enemy and super bowl security from the skies to the ground, unprecedented measures years in the making, stay tuned for that. you know what's awesome? gig-speed internet.

america? lawrence jones, thank you for joining us, appreciate it. i have been wanting to talk to you since the state of the union. the initial reaction giving the speech, great things happening, and japan over, all these democrats clearly looking, what were you thinking? >> the first thing that came to mind is they are literally -- against america by being so anti-trump. whether you agree with the president or not, you can't deny what the president has done for the american people which is why you see so many people excited about the tax cuts, why you see -- the president trying to secure the border but democrats would prefer to put politics over what is best for the

american people. if you look at senator joe mention, he wanted to clap, you see him try to get out of his seat and looked at his other colleagues and fit down. heather: one of the journalists, chuck schumer was literally shushing him when he would stand up, happened at least twice. >> routing against the american people. we know from the cbs paul a lot of independent voters supported the president's speech and wanted the president to go down with his tone and the president delivered a well-thought-out speech, didn't attack anybody, didn't go on twitter and couldn't applaud this speech. heather: bernie sanders, talking about climate change, one of the other incidents, talking about

immigration, democrats were prepared to start bulling but as he was speaking he adjusted the family impacted by ms 13 gang members, and had dishes themselves immediately. >> didn't want to give due credit to the president for acknowledging what the family went through. there was not a dry eye across america but they couldn't put politics aside. let me tell you the president is giving democrat a lot when it comes to immigration. a lot of people are disappointed when it comes to amnesty and yet democrats call this a whitewashing of america yet the president is willing to give amnesty and the right to vote which is what democrats are about to to 1.8 million illegals and they can't celebrate that. jillian: the art of compromise, both sides are never going to

get everything they want which is why it is called compromise. what about members of the congressional black caucus not standing when the president talked about record numbers of unemployment for african-americans? the change they are so typical, talking about people in the congressional black caucus that are millionaires that never put their citizens first, so interesting to me how the congressional black caucus with the democratic leadership shut down the government over illegals in america but they vote for the democratic party 90% of the time, never shut down the government for black folks, issues affecting the black community and black folks are watching it will be responsive in the next lecture. a lot of americans giving tax cuts in february including the black community, i wonder how they are going to respond to those black voters in february when they get those tax cuts. >> i hope african-americans

listen and pay attention to what is going on and don't just watch reaction from political leaders like what happened. thank you for joining us, appreciate it, love having you here. we will be right back.
