>> we start with fox news alert. the democratic memo is out. it says russians were engaged in a court interference campaign to influence the election and also claims that fisa process was not abuse. as for carter page 110 trump campaign foreign policy official, the memo says he was quote - assessed to be an agent of the russian government. he has long denied any wrongdoing. the memo says the court was told christopher steele quote - was hired by politically motivated us persons to discredit donald trump campaign. but it does not say that it mentioned either the dnc nor hillary clinton's campaign. so everyone a fast breaking up

-- after the. >> top democrat adam schiff says that the memo unfairly the work of the justice department of bianchi real live now from washington with catherine. >> nichols read this to themselves or typically will encourage people to do. it is not 10 pages in length. it is important to be reading and looking for what is not they are or what is omitted. it matters because in the republican staff memo they concluded that mccabe testified under oath in 2017 at that would never have sought the surveillance warrant for the trump campaign aid were not for the donald trump dossier. has not taken head-on by the democrats in the rebuttal. number two, only look at the issue of the dnc and the clinton campaign event was a political document and the

information about the funding and sourcing with the dnc and clinton campaign was never directly shared with the fisa court. that is not really taken head-on either in the democrats memo. he says that for reasons that are standard in terms of protecting methods that it was appropriate for the fbi and justice department to call it a political document way politically motivated document. that was designed to work against the then candidate trump but not really get into specifics in the black and white. but it was the dnc and clinton campaign. one of the most important conclusions if you will in the memo is that there were multiple sources that corroborated elements of the dossier. and that is calming down here in page number four. you can see at the bottom not the supporting information is redacted. the myspace will be sources, methods and national security information. this is the justice department provided additional information obtained from multiple

independent sources that corroborated the british spy, christopher steele, reporting. let me tell you why this has my attention. because it seems to directly conflict with the testimony that the fbi director james comey gave under oath to the senate intelligence committee in june 2017. i have the statement ready for the record and it is not testimony that james comey says, i braved the incoming president in january 2017. about the trump dossier. but he said specifically in a statement for the record which is under oath, the intelligence community leadership, i am courting here. but it was important for a variety of reasons to elect incoming president to the existence of this material. that is a reference to the steele dossier. even though it was salacious and unverified. the fbi director says in january it was unverified. but the democrats are saying an mmo that several months earlier, there were multiple sources that had corroborated the reporting period so this is

clearly a disconnect, if you were a clear conflict between what the fbi director and former director have testified to and what is in the democrats memo. >> and catherine, you are referencing page 4. also you have pages suspicious activity during the 2016 campaign, the application also detailed pages suspicious activity after joining the trump campaign in march 2016. page traveled to moscow in july 2016 in which he gave university commitment address and an honor usually reserved for well-known luminaries. it goes on to say that it is in this specific subsection of the application the doj refers to the reporting on page and alleged ordination with russian officials. the information from steele about page was consistent with the fbi as assessment of russian intelligence efforts to recruit him and his connections to russian persons of interest.

what does that say to you? >> the thing that is missing, here in the memo is that at least the impression that carter page was an unknown quantity to the fbi and justice department in 2016 when in fact, there were very familiar with carter page. come to their attention in 2013 as a result of a counterintelligence or espionage case. in fact carter page should become a cooperating witness for the fbi and help them secure prosecution of a russian national for spying tried to recruit spies inside the united states. so carter page is not some blank taser they never seen before. he was well known to them. and again, come back to the idea that when you look at what james comey testified to, to the senate intelligence committee. he called it unverified. but the democrats and their memo say that there were multiple independent sources. cooperating some of the information. and i would encourage people to

also take a closer look at the way they deal with this september 2016 report by michael -- in yahoo! news which was used in the fisa application for carter page as additional or corroborating information. what i do not see here is the explicit reference to the fact that the court was ever told that steele was the case for the story. >> if you go back and look at the story, in september 2016, is bottom line that intelligence officials are looking at the issues and exploring the issues could not that they have confirmed these events actually happened. so it might be a fine distinction but it does not go to the level of cooperation. i think that woman hope to see in the fisa court could because the folks at home that are not used to hearing about this national security court, is among the most secret institutions. in the judicial system. it is really up there with the supreme court and as you

expect, there is an extremely high bar to cross in order to approve the surveillance of a us citizen inside of the united states. this is phone records, emails, text messages, it is government in all of your communications. >> catherine, it does not have any place in this the says there was compromising information on the president were then candidate trump. but he says that page met with high officials of equipment and discussed the possibility of the compromising information on hillary clinton being released to candidate campaign there referring to trump. what you make of that? that the russians had something on hillary but apparently they were talking to carter page about but they apparently do not have anything offered here on president trump. >> we interviewed carter page almost one year ago this month. he said on the record, the allegations have been made against him in the dossier were false. he is been on many other

networks since. but if i could just take one further step back for context. which i think is important. in march of last year there was an open hearing by the house intelligence committee with then director, james comey and head of the national security agency, mike rogers. it was during the testimony congressman adam schiff read into the record entire sections of the trump dossier. about six minutes worth of information. what i find interesting in the democrats memo now is that dancing was never really about the dossier. it was about other intelligence that led to the surveillance warrant. and that to me seems like they moved several steps in distancing themselves from the dossier. and this was not the tone that they were taking just one year ago and they were arguing that there was interference in the campaign and some of the information was held in the trump dossier. >> also the doj provides transparency about christopher steele and you -- we are going

to move on and give you more time to go through this 10 page memo. from adam schiff. of course, there is no reaction from the white house with officials calling the democrat memo a politically driven document that really does not prove anything. especially concerning claims of collusion between the trump campaign and russia. ellison barber is live at the white house with details of that. >> that's right. white house press secretary sarah huckabee sanders is in south korea right now but put out a statement.it says in part that the memo quote - fails to answer serious concerns raised by the majority memorandum about the use of partisan opposition research. from one candidate uncorroborated allegations as a basis throughout the court to approve surveillance of a former associate of another candidate at the height of a presidential campaign. she goes on to say nothing in the memo contradicts the presidents position. that neither he nor his campaign included with a foreign power during the 2016

election. president trump has been tweeting all day today but so far nothing about this particular thing. his last tweet was about daca. he also tweeted earlier today but the idea of arming teachers and other school staff members with weapons in light of what happened at parkland. he wrote in part that trained armed adjudicators would be a quote - big and very expensive deterrence. he added quote - it is up to the state, is the president speaking at cpac yesterday. >> this guy thought that other people would be shooting bullets back at him, he would not have gone to the school. i do not when a person has never handled a gun that would not know what a gun looks like to be armed. but out of your teaching population, out of the teaching population, you have 10 percent, 20 percent of very gun

adept people. military people, law enforcement, people that teach! >> arming some teachers is one of a few proposals the president has talked about. it is unclear if or when policy changes may occur. when asked whether or not the president plan to send proposal to congress they said in some areas laws might make sense but they will not rule out possible federal legislation. >> we talked about strengthening background checks. with emphasis on mental health. he also talked about raising the age for some gun sales. he talked about ending bump stocks. right now we are in a listening phase. i don't think we will have anything in a specific legislative language yet. >> will keep you up-to-date if we hear anything from the white house about this memo. >> thank you very much. >> for more analysis of the

newly released democratic mentalist bringing judy miller. judy, the democrats say that this process was not abuse. and one quote - about steele and the fact that the doj says they informed a fisa court with this being politically motivated. says quote - doj in fact informed the court accurately that steele was hard by politically motivated us persons and entities. and the research appeared intended for use to discredit donald trump campaign. nowhere does it say they mention the dnc or hillary clinton. >> that is true. but i think i would like to take a step back and say, what is the average american who may be paying more attention to the economy and to the rising stock market going to make of all of this? i think as an american, you have to stand back and say, we had a very sorry spectacle here. the house intelligence

committee now so divided that it cannot even disagree on a version of history on who said what to whom on how a fisa warrant was issued and renewed three times. by the fisa court. the fundamental issues that the mueller commission was looking into, is looking into, is, did russian metal in our election? the answer to that is now overwhelmingly, we know because of last week's event, yes. so this partisan squabble within the house intelligence committee, i think does nothing but undermine the credibility of that institution. the democrats were forced to respond to the release of a memo. the fbi and doj strongly objected to this. in terms of the release of possible compromising sensitive information sources and methods for the democrats respond i

think americans stand back and look at this and say what a travesty. >> to 1.8 is made, what is troubling is that it does indeed say that the russians had a covert operation to interfere and influence the 2016 election. it said the fbi assess the quarter page was an agent of the russian government. and details the meetings he had with top officials of the kremlin discussing the election apparently, in moscow. he has denied wrongdoing. so to the broader point, the russians certainly did interfere with our elections. what do we do about that? that is the great challenge eric! and that is the problem. and here we are, dissecting an eight page memo with two pages of footnotes. to establish what is that the russians did interfere and the president has not responded in a harsh and dynamic and dramatic way.

he has not told vladimir putin, stop this right now. we are still arguing about whether or not christopher steele memo, salacious dossier or parts of it should have been released or whether or not it should have been used for a fisa warrant. perhaps, it is true that the fbi were overreached. that they should have used parts of the christopher steele memo that they use. maybe they did not do everything according to the book that they should have done to get the warrant renewed three times. also under the trump administration by the way. does that take away from the fact that the russians metals and we have yet to respond? i just think people had to step back and say what is going on here? do we have a republican actively attempting to subvert the mueller investigation? yes.

you have democrats defending perhaps, indefensible tactics to investigate that meddling? perhaps. those can be true but the underlying and bottom line of this is the russians metals, the administration has not responded. i can dissect this document as catherine has brilliantly done a million different ways to let us not lose sight of what is at stake if you should not have a committee that cannot agree on a narrative and basic facts we should not expect the american people to -- to defend national security. i think there's a lot of culpability that goes on paper neither side has totally clean hands as we can see from the battling memorandums. the republican and democrat memorandums. i am very sorry that has come

to this but it has. >> picking up one of the points you just mentioned, it says in the memo that they doj explained the fbi is reason for finding steele credible. does the credible reporting on russia and other matters including information doj used in criminal proceedings. senior fbi and other officials repeatedly confirmed the credibility of his party. also in the underlying source document for the fbi had undertaken a rigorous process for reporting from steele with regards to page. also to your point that you feel that here it is, it is embarrassing on a level.i think that is what you're saying. that powers that be are squabbling over something so important and disputing what is at the root of the problem. and as you know, we all know

that the president tweeted recently that the russians are laughing their asses off. how do you think they're doing now?>> i think they're also laughing there butts off! [laughter] anything that sows discord or skepticism on the part of the american system works an advantage for yes parts of the memo from christopher steele may have been salacious and unsubstantiated. some of it was. the memo demonstrates that the fbi was pretty straight with the fisa court about christopher steele strengths and weaknesses. they revealed that he had personal animus towards donald trump and that the fbi decided not to use him as a source of information. and that he was never paid. so you know, christopher steele is not the object of this investigation. vladimir putin and his meddling

in our election process is. we have to give that in mind. >> judy miller, think of your analysis. i will ask you to stick around as we will discuss this later in the show as well. in the meantime, adam schiff rebuttal to the republican memo. making the big debut. aimed at countering republican allegations that the fbi abused surveillance powers in the investigation been heard judy miller's take care love more not on this breaking news coming up.keep it right here on fox news channel. i take pictures of sunrises, but with my back pain i couldn't sleep and get up in time. then i found aleve pm. aleve pm is the only one to combine a safe sleep aid plus the 12 hour pain relieving strength of aleve. i'm back. aleve pm for a better am.

i'm trying to manage my a1c, and then i learn type 2 diabetes puts me at greater risk for heart attack or stroke. can one medicine help treat both blood sugar and cardiovascular risk? i asked my doctor. he told me about non-insulin victoza®. victoza® is not only proven to lower a1c and blood sugar, but for people with type 2 diabetes treating their cardiovascular disease, victoza® is also approved to lower the risk of major cv events such as heart attack, stroke, or death.

redacted memo. the fbi abused surveillance powers and the republican memo. in this the talk democrat, adam schiff says the russians were engaged in a covert interference campaign to influence the presidential election. he claims that the fisa process was not abuse. he also accused devin nunes on the right, that memo of being inaccurate and a distraction on the russia investigative he says that they will be resources to suspect former trump advisor carter page -- he

has long denied any wrongdoing. when joins now with john. what jumps out at you first? >> there's a lot in here ended redacted. you know they put us on the web so everyone can be to. it is an interesting compilation.what the democrat said happened. and they are saying that devin nunes twisting the facts. and we, the democrats will untwist computer here, you can decide for yourself. this is what happened and our estimation and our recounting of it. and basically, the argument is the fbi was onto quarter page a long time ago. there is evidence that there have been attempts to recruit him. >> second 2013. he has never been charged. he is every american citizen. >> correct. and so incorrectly the fbi kept an eye on him. there was contact by him, there was contact by the russians with ham and the compilation of this along with some elements of the memo by steele.

before three different fisa judges appointed by the george bush administration, they found it compelling enough for the fbi to move ahead. it is a pretty interesting memo. i don't think this alters the landscape. there was a muddying of the landscape by the newness memo. essentially undercutting the authority of the fbi. an attempt to undercut the authority of the fbi as they advance in the investigation of the trump administration. i think much of this was already in the public domain. >> this was says that steele was not paid and that these steele dossier was not the primary source for the fisa application at all.but there was other information carter page, papadopoulos and others. >> there were findings by steele a correlated with what the fbi independently had found out about quarter page. so it comes together is a little bit more robust

information for those who are deeply in the weeds on this investigation. and following very closely. at the end of the day, i think this is a sideshow. it shows a disk functioning house intelligence committee. anything that comes out of the house intelligence committee is not bipartisan, we will have to be suspect of giving this that is occurring. it causes us to focus very much on what robert mueller is doing. >> you just mentioned let me pick up on that a second pretty data shows it is functioning intelligence system as some have claimed? it says right here that fisa was not used to spy on trump his campaign. that is the claim. >> i do not think so. i think that is essentially questioning the veracity and competence. the us intelligence committee i would say no. i think the public should have faith in the poor institutions that america has. a lot of this is political but the mueller investigation continues, it is methodical,

secret, it is not leaking. it is finding wrongdoing of various sorts. and we do not know what the outcome is. >> is there evidence of the so-called collision or collision between the trump campaign to elect donald trump, is the financial information, alleged money laundering. >> lying to the fbi. >> so far there's nothing the critics would say that shows there is any collision directly that we know of. >> i think it is fair to say that we do not know yet. we have not seen evidence to date. i think that is a very fair assessment you made. i would just say that we do not know where we are in the investigation. and collision is one thing that the mueller investigation is looking at. they also looking at it justice was obstructed by the administration of the investigation. they are also, they have some pretty savvy prosecutors who

have dealt with issues of money laundering. >> for example others i have dealt with the mob. >> we are still -- i would just cancel edward to keep your eye on that investigation. and the political disruption. the political disruption, the house intelligence committee and it is unfortunate. >> allegations to some critics undermine some of the faith and institutions that you say is troubling. with peter strzok and lisa paige emails about trump it would be a disaster if he was elected president and they have insurance policy. on page 7, finally peter strzok and lisa paige emails are -- we see this reporting in the accusations and yet you have this in cold print information went to the fisa court this is a lot of that noise had nothing to do with the application. >> that is what adam schiff will say. it is a lot of noise. that there was evidence presented to the fisa court independent of that.

that convinced the court to do what it did. and it articulates that evidence. the interactions of carter page with the russians. reviewed concerns of the fbi, current concerns of the fbi. conclusions by the intelligence committee that there was russian involvement in our election. i think that is what was intended to do there. as for raising doubts about our institutions, you have to ask yourself why is that done? i throw the media they are also not just the intelligence committee. it is done in part two -- those being criticized perhaps by some of the institutions. the objective might be to undercut the legitimacy of those institutions as the investigation proceeds could we just have to keep it really clear eye on that fact plus the fact that mueller is being very methodical up until now. you do not see any reason to

doubt his pursuit of this. >> john, thank you. let me just read the last footnote. the russian government was engaged in a covert campaign to influence election including the russian intelligence actors compromise the d&c. vladimir putin -- we will see what happens. >> thank you. >> if you like to read the memo we have posted it on our website, www.foxnews.com. in case you want to look at this for yourself. 10 pages. also the programming note tonight on justice with judge jeanine, a very special guest. yes, president trump in a live interview with judge jeanine tonight at 9 pm eastern only here on the fox news channel. be sure to check that out. we will be right back. and sometimes, i don't eat the way i should. so, i drink boost to get the nutrition i'm missing. boost high protein nutritional drink has 15 grams of protein to help maintain muscle

more shocking details. new information about the florida school massacre including the fact that armed deputies were at the school at the time of the attack but did

not go inside to stop it. meanwhile, the fbi and the city received a tip a month before the valentine's day shooting spree that left 17 people dead. we are live from perth in florida with the latest. >> arthel, for any person morning one of the victims that was murdered in his high school behind me, there are just excruciating details emerging about how law enforcement did not properly respond the day of the shooting. beginning with the fbi tip image a call is a nikolaus cruz is capable of shooting up a school. then, we learn the school resource officer on the campus whose only job is to protect the students, did not go inside the day of the shooting. he has been fired and now we are learning about three deputies who were also on the scene the day of the massacre. they also did not go inside. the broward county sheriff may not two of them are being

investigated. we are not clear why they did not go inside that day to be fair. this is obviously sparked a political firestorm. let's begin with the latest, it while the chairman of the freedom caucus, north carolina congressman, mark meadows tweeted outcome of the broward county sheriff and part of a nationwide audience on cnn, lifted the nra and millions of law-abiding gun owners when all along, it was his department that did nothing chapter 39 calls, multiple threads and failed to engage the shooter. astounding! we need answers. this morning, democratically presented, -- of florida released a video slamming the nra and here are some of the demands that he is asking of republicans. >> to require background checks on every sale and transfer get to keep guns in the hands of suspected terrorists. to outlaw bob stocks and enable automatically to fire. to require no wonder the age of

21 can buy a gun. and to once again, ban assault weapons from our streets. >> at the center of all this, the ongoing finger-pointing at the nra. the broward county sheriff himself, in a fiery debate online tweeting out after the school shooting, you are not standing up for the students. he tweeted back to the nra spokesperson. the nra responded online. yesterday their twitter account responded to the sheriff tweeting, no sheriff israel, you are the one that did not protect these children and that is your job. you on the largest fully accredited sheriffs office in the united states. yet, your office failed this community. at this point, things have progressed to a political collision. on all sides, they want answers. >> i'm sure that this will be very much discussed on the sunday shows tomorrow morning. we will have more on that right here on the fox news channel

throughout the day as well. thank you. >> with the reporting that the democrats rebuttal to the republicans claiming the fisa court was politicized. this memo from intelligence ranking member, congressman adam schiff says quote, the fbi doj officials did not abuse the intelligence surveillance act process. -- to spy on the trump campaign. it also says the application may not include any quote - salacious allegations about mr. trump. our correspondent, catherine herridge joins us. you are doing a spectacular job with these facts. you know every single detail in this. what surprised you the most and what insight did you get by reading this that you did not expect? >> going to the record, one of the most important points to refute from the republican staff memo is that information about the d&c and clinton

campaign funding the dossier was never shared with the national security court or the fisa court. when you go to the records, the 10 pages of the rebuttal, this is never directly challenged. the other issue is that when you look at the people work itself, i think because the public is not that familiar with the fisa court and the national security court that there is some basic principles that maybe are missed in the discussion. what i would emphasize is that the fisa court is a court that really is called an ex parte court. means only one side is represented. and it is the government. that means that it is incumbent upon the government, special responsibility to provide all of the information to the national security court.given information that could work against the application itself and even challenge the credibility of the applications. the fbi and justice department, this is not challenged by the

democrats. never directly identified the political roots of the dossier. so the dnc and the clinton campaign, nor did they teleport that part of page for whom they were seeking surveillance warrant, had worked directly with the fbi back in 2013. had become a cooperating witness in a counterintelligence, espionage case and help them secure a conviction for russian nationals for spying. and in the course of the investigation, russians were caught on tape saying that they felt part of page was an idiot. and not them when they would want to recruit. that was information that was not included. it might have been put to the court deciding if it was just -- justified. >> what about the fact that this is the doj in fact informed the court accurately that steele was have a politically motivated us persons. in the attempt to was to discredit the trump campaign. they do not mention the clinton campaign or the dnc. and here is what devin nunes

said about that two hours ago. >> we think we have a sound bite. i guess we don't! >> wouldn't it have been easier just to say, hey, mr. judge. we want to let you know the hillary clinton campaign and democratic party paid a lawyer hired a firm who hired a foreign agent to go to russians and get dirt on mr. trump. it would have been a lot easier just to say that. and we're not going to have a fisa court in this country any longer if the fbi and doj will continue to do that. >> catherine, quickly, was that a major omission? not to mention clinton and the dnc? >> this means that the special responsibly on the government to give the judges to grant surveillance warrants and there's really no higher bar in the system. full visibility on the information and whether it supports or undermines the credibility of seeking out warrant. just a final point, which to me

is kind of like a big picture you know the force versus the trees. no one is talking about that the fbi went and got a surveillance warrant the quarter page back in 2016 at the height of the presidential election. based on everything we have learned throughout reporting of fox news, even when you look at the other media reporting, it really seems abundantly clear that quarter page is not the focus of robert mueller is special counsel investigation. into russian interference in the us elections. you have to ask yourself, why wasn't the fbi ãwhy was it about their grounds for a warrant? robert mueller is not even looking at this guy. he has interviewed him multiple times. and carter pages indicated to us that he is not a target of the special counsel. that is a pretty big disconnect if you will. >> a huge disconnect. he has already said that he has done nothing wrong. we will see how this plays out. of course you will be with us throughout the hour. thank you.

>> thank you. this will prevent judy miller now. a pulitzer prize-winning author, and fox news contributor. this had more of catherine reporting on this. is there anything further that is jumping out at you judy?>> i think what jumps out at me is the timeline of this counterintelligence investigation. i mean, what the democrats say is that the investigation begins in july of 2015 when carter page is actually in russia, talking to the russians about ways in which they can be allegedly helpful to the trump campaign. but the fisa application, the warrant is not formally requested until after mr. carter page has left the campaign. and the steele memorandum that everyone is talking about is being salacious and uncorroborated, that is a democrats challenge they point

out that the fbi did not even get that memo until -- >> judy -- >> the time line does not add up. >> we will talk to in the next hour. we will be back in a moment. even if you're healthy. pneumococcal pneumonia is a potentially serious bacterial lung disease that in severe cases can lead to hospitalization. it may hit quickly, without warning, causing you to miss out on the things you enjoy most. prevnar 13® is not a treatment for pneumococcal pneumonia... it's a vaccine you can get to help protect against it. prevnar 13® is approved for adults to help prevent infections from 13 strains of the bacteria that cause pneumococcal pneumonia. you should not receive prevnar 13® if you have had a severe allergic reaction to the vaccine or its ingredients. if you have a weakened immune system, you may have a lower response to the vaccine. the most common side effects were pain, redness and swelling at the injection site,

let's start with the plan to deploy us coast guard forces to intercept ships basically trying to sneak trade with north korea. beating kim jong-un to build more nuclear weapons permit is inadvertently provoked a proxy war edge of the us even be concerned about that? it is part of the us strategy of maximum pressure on north korea which with sanctions all about pride and they could be more on maritime. this comes at the same time we are seeing in south korea that the south korean president has been trying their abilities to reach out to north korea and create more moderate so we have both happening at the same time. one of south korea and more clean conciliation with the north and more maximum pressure from the us on getting the north back to negotiations. >> would you be more effective do you think?

>> hopefully admits. all of us would like to see the north koreans come to the table and actually give up their nuclear program and ballistic missiles. which of course, is still sort of unlikely in the sense that the north koreans used this as their insurance policy for maintaining basically the current regime. >> ivanka trump is in south korea attending the closing ceremonies for the winter olympics. she is not meeting with north korean delegation and of course she has every right to go to the ceremony but is also the first daughter and close senior advisor to her father and she was briefed on the new sanctions. what message does her presence have? >> for one, she comes there as part of the whole olympics to just be there as a senior us official. but of course, since there has been all this north korean diplomacy going on, on the sidelines of course the question has been, will she or other members of delegation

meet with the north koreans? was he is certain is that the south korean president will meet with the north koreans delegates and will be continuation of his outreach to the north. >> jonas parallo-pleser, we have to leave it there. incorporated you for joining us. we are back in a minute. the corkscrew spin, flawless... ...his signature move, the flying dutchman. poetry in motion. and there it is, the "baby bird". breathtaking. a sumo wrestler figure skating? surprising. what's not surprising? how much money heather saved by switching to geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more. if you have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis, little things can be a big deal. that's why there's otezla. otezla is not an injection or a cream. it's a pill that treats psoriasis differently. with otezla, 75% clearer skin is achievable after just 4 months, ...

>> fox news alert, the democratic intelligence memo now released saying the russians were engaged in a covert interference campaign to influence of the famous election. it claims the fisa process was not abuse. hello everyone and welcome to a brand-new hour inside "america's news hq". i am arthel neville. >> iam eric shawn. this this house intelligence committee's memo written by adam schiff. it says it relied on a variety of intelligence resources to provide information to the

court and required triggered transparency on an evidentiary basis for probable cause. it's euros and on carter page as quote, someone the fbi assessed to be an agent of the russian government. allegedly had meetings in russia with two top officials, one claiming the russians had compromising information about hillary clinton that could be given to the come campaign. page has long denied wrongdoing. tonight, devin nunes is blasting this democratic memo. - - live in our washington newsroom with more of the breaking details for us tonight. catherine, to you what is the most significant thing you see in this memo? >>reporter: i think the most significant conclusion is that a year ago democrats made the argument it was all about the dossier. it was all about the dossier and securing the necessary investigative tools to look at this russian interference in the 2016 election.

but when you read this newly declassified 10 page counter memo, what you see is they are now making the argument that is in fact not about the memo. that it was about other intelligence that justified the surveillance warrant for this term campaign aide, carter page. i want to draw your attention to a couple sections. on page 4 of the democrats memo you can see it heavily redacted so we don't know what the corroborating intelligence was. it states, the justice department provided additional information obtained through multiple independent sources that corroborated christopher steele's reporting. his reporting is was on verified dossier. the reason that a significant is that the fbi director james comey testified to something entirely different in june of last year.

he testified that in january 2017, this is three months after the fbi got the surveillance warrant for carter page.that this document be made on verified and salacious. this is the testimony by james comey and he is talking about the briefing at trump tower. in early january with the incoming president at that time. again, there's a conflict between what the democrats are saying in their memo, what james comey testified to. to be absolutely transparent, we don't know what's in those blackout section so it's hard to reach hard and fast conclusions. but on its face it seems to be a conflict. >>arthel: it says carter page met with russians to perhaps collect compromising information on clinton. it doesn't no, correct me if i am wrong here, it doesn't say carter page was working or operating on behalf of the term campaign.

>> it does not say that in the memo. the other thing we know from our reporting and it's not mentioned in the memo, is that carter page was a known quantity to the fbi. in 2013, he was on their radar as part of a russian espionage case and he became a cooperating witness and helped secure the conviction of a russian agent for espionage in the united states. in the course of that investigation, the russians fell carter page was totally unsuitable for recruitment as an asset.the other thing i want to say as a final point, my experiences you can learn about the document by going through the footnotes. if you go to page 9 in this document and look at footnote 25, it references an interview with the former director director of the fbi, andrew mccabe in december 2017. this is a critical interview because it's in that interview that republicans say andrew mccabe told them they would never have sought the surveillance warrant for carter

page if they didn't have the trump dossier. they would never have gone to the national security court. when you read the democrats memo here, they cite the mccabe interview and how he felt christopher steele was credible and had a track record of solid reporting and worked with the fbi. this was the democrats opportunity to challenge the central conclusion of the republican staff memo and for some reason, they chose not to do it.i don't know what the transcript is but this was the opportunity. that was the mccabe interview and they chose not to challenge it directly. that was the central finding of the republicans on the fisa review. >> on the bottom of page one it says the doj's applications did not otherwise rely on his reporting including any quote, salacious allegations about trump and the fbi never paid christopher steele for this reporting.

>> the thing is, you can't have it both ways.a year ago is all about the dossier. a year later, it's not about the dossier. it's about other information. what the document doesn't explain is really what appears to be an evolution. and how the democrats on the committee viewed the credibility and the utility of the dossier. the other thing i would say is that the standard is so high with the national security court. you must always provide information because it's what they call a - - which is one side is represented. yet to give full transparency and if there is anything that may but up against it or reduce credibility. in this particular case, they were never direct with the court and that is not challenged here. that was the dnc and clinton funded document.they never challenged that. if i could take one minute, there's another footnote which

is worth looking at. on page 5, it references how the person who was working with christopher steele on the dossier project. the fbi speculates the identified u.s. person was likely looking for information that could be used to discredit candidate one campaign. candidate one is the trump campaign. what we now understand is the same person is in fact glenn simpson. glenn simpson was the person with cofounder of fusion gps. the opposition research firm and christopher steele put the data together. you have an individual that in the fbi's estimation, a political agenda and compiling and assessing the information. yet, this was not fully shared with the court. i have said this a few times this afternoon. you just cannot emphasize to people enough that the highest far in the system is getting a

surveillance warrant to the u.s. government to spy on a mac citizen inside the united states. there is no higher bar. when you look at the democrats memo is you see the details that could have informed the court's decision. they may have made the same decision but details that would have been important to inform the court's decision. the funding by the dnc, clinton campaign, a political agenda by grist for steele, glenn simpson. this information was not share . >>arthel: on the bottom of page 5, the doj informed the court christopher steele was hired by politically motivated persons and its research was intended to discredit trump's campaign but nowhere does it say it was the dnc or the clinton campaign. catherine, thank you so much. i know you will stay with us for the hour as we digest more of this. the white house is reacting to the release of this memo saying the document doesn't prove anything regarding the investigation being conducted by robert mueller. we will hear a lot more in three hours from now.

president trump is calling in to judge janine. wait for that program later on on the fox news channel. - - is on the lawn of the white house with details of their reaction. >>reporter: white house press secretary sarah sanders released a statement shortly after that memo came out. it says in part quote, this memo fails to answer serious concerns raised by the majority's memorandum about the use of partisan opposition research from one candidate loaded with uncorroborated allegations as a basis to ask the court to approve surveillance of a former associate of another candidate at the height of the presidential campaign. she also says nothing in this memo contradicts the president's position that neither he nor his campaign colluded with a foreign power in the 2016 election. no or directly from president trump just yet. yes been tweeting throughout the day. on everything from the economy to daca to the controversial idea of potentially arming teachers and classrooms in

light of what happened in parkland. he tweeted quote, educators interested people who work within a school, they must be firearms adept and have annual training, get yearly bonus. shootings will not happen again. an inexpensive deterrent. he adds up to states. here's what he said about the issue at cpac yesterday. >> i don't want a person is never handled the gun that doesn't know what a gun looks like to be armed. but out of your teaching population, out of your teaching population, you have 10 percent, 20 percent, a very gun adept people.military people, law enforcement, they teach.>>reporter: arming teachers is one of few proposals the president has talked about in the aftermath of the parkland shooting.

he talked about the need to strengthen background checks with an emphasis on mental health and raising the minimum age for buying some guns such as rifles. >> to keep guns out of the hands of suspected terrorist. to outlaw bump stocks. to require that no one under the age of 21 can buy a gun. and to once again ban assault weapons from our streets. >>reporter: that is not the white house deputy press secretary, he said earlier that the president means what he said he also said president trump has made promises and kept promises because business as usual in washington d.c. is over.he reiterated something we heard the president say in that he plans to do something in regards to changing working with the state in some fashion to address issues they feel come to light after the shooting in parkland. >>eric: thanks so much. >>arthel: for more on the democrats 10 page memo released late this afternoon, breaking

news we are covering on the fox news channel. we will bring - - back in. pulitzer prize winning author and journalist. want to get to specific reactions from you but i want to read something from page 1. a paragraph that says christopher steele's raw intelligence reporting did not inform the fbi's decision to initiate its counterintelligence investigation. in late july 2016. in fact, the fbi's closely held investigative team only received steals reporting in mid-september, more than seven weeks later. the fbi and subsequently the special counsel's investigations into links with the russian government and some campaign associates have been based on troubling law enforcement intelligence information unrelated to the dossier. you say what to that? >> i say that's really the issue that the republicans and democrats are arguing about. on the intelligence committee. that is the role of the christopher steele memo.the question is this, that the fisa

court get all of the information it needed to issue a warrant without abusing the process? was that process of used in issuing the warrant? the republicans in the form of the nunes memo say yes it was abuse. the democrats say, no. this is a legitimate investigation. we don't know the answer to that question because as catherine pointed out, so much of this memo is blacked out. so we don't know what the specifics were.the evidence was. what the memo does do is outline some alleged troubling contacts between carter page and the russians in a meeting in july of 2016. that's supposedly what prompted this investigation. but let's step back here, this memo is so in the weeds.

the broader question that the memo is all about, above and beyond whether the fisa process, the surveillance was authorized or if it was abuse. is worth awere the russians med? this becomes an asterisk. we know because of the indictments of 13 russians, that yes, they did metal. they meddled repeatedly. they meddled over time. obama knew about this meddling and the precious little nor did donald trump even after he was briefed. these are two separate issues whether or not the fisa process was abuse and whether or not the russians were meddling. to date, there is still no evidence that robert mueller has presented of collusion between donald trump himself and that meddling. >>arthel: as catherine pointed out, the memo does not prove

carter page was in fact working on behalf of the term campaign. so many questions left to be answered. i want to go here with you because i know you pointed out how this continues to erode confidence perhaps in the fbi, doj, congress. what do you say to that? >> i think that's part of the russian game plan and they have succeeded all too well. to make americans skeptical about our process. make the americans doubt the system of justice works well. make americans have little faith in congress and its institutions. this is a terribly sorry spectacle. the fbi and justice department urging the trump administration not to and the republicans not to release information. not to release the memo because it could jeopardize sources and methods. and yes, devin nunes did that anyway. now the democrats have responded despite the continued partisan and troubling nature

of this divide. it will continue americans will continue to wonder whether or not they will get a consensus on a straight story in terms of what happened here during this crucial. in american history. >>arthel: president trump will call into judge dineen tonight on her show at 9:00 p.m. eastern right here on the fox news channel. do you think we will get an answer from the president that will somehow set the record straight and sort of console americans may be feeling anxiety over what's happening with was being played out here? >> i think what president trump need to do is what i said he should do all along. which is respond to let me put in. in a way that is undeniable. that is clear. obvious.mr. putin, wipe that smile off your face. you have crossed the red line when you meddled in our elections. and continue to do so . as the national security intelligence community told us last week.

make the russians pay a price that is so significant that they will rethink their interference in our election process. until he does that, these questions will continue no matter how many memos are released by which side of this partisan divide. >>arthel: some have claimed the president is concerned the russians meddling in elections somehow alter the outcome which has not been proven. what do you say to the president regarding that? put that aside mr. president, you won. you are the duly elected president. >> that's exactly what i say. hillary clinton lost. she is history. she may have lost my 70,000 boats and three states but she lost. it is impossible to say as you just pointed out, to what extent the russian propaganda did or did not play a role. what we need to do is prevent

it from happening again. so far, i don't see republicans or democrats stepping up to the play on that. that was the challenge that led to the formation of robert mueller's commission. let's hope he forges ahead and eventually we get a story, a single narrative that the american people to believe. >>arthel: we will wait and see. judy miller, thank you. >>eric: the russians also allegedly told carter page the kremlin had dirt on hillary clinton. and they could give it to the term campaign. so what does the president think about that? in less than three hours as we've been telling you, the president of the united states will be on justice with judge janine live this evening on the fox news channel.for his reaction to the adam schiff memo, president trump, 19 eastern. less than three hours from now. you don't want to miss it. >>arthel: indeed.

still ahead, our top story. adam schiff's rebuttal to the republican memo making its big debut late this afternoon. aimed at countering republican allegations that the fbi abused government surveillance powers in its rush investigation. more on this breaking news coming up. stick with us. mmmmm...amazing. i have heartburn. ultra strength from alka seltzer. enjoy the relief.

but their nutritional needs remain instinctual. that's why there's purina one true instinct. real meat #1. a different breed of natural nutrition. purina one true instinct. now, try new purina one true instinct treats. the democratic memo is out.

it says the russians were engaged in a covert campaign. it claims the fisa process was

not abuse. as for carter page, he was quote, assessed to be an agent of the russian government. page has denied any wrongdoing. in his memo, the house intelligence committee top democrat congressman adam schiff claims devin nunes is memo unfairly maligned the justice department and fbi. the best with us. a senior writer at the national review. i want to read a tweet from president trump just out. thing the democrat memo response on government surveillance abuses is a total political and legal bust. just confirmed the terrible things that were done. so illegal he says. what your reaction david? >> that's ridiculous. what this memo does is it contradicts virtually every meaningful allegation in the nunes memo.

it contradicts it in some cases with some pretty compelling evidence. for example, the nunes memo claimed the fbi didn't sufficiently disclose that christopher still was working on behalf of an opposition campaign. the quotation provided in the adam schiff memo says the fbi disclosed the person that was the first deals work was done on behalf of an entity designed to discredit the term campaign. designed to discredit. it's another way of saying opposition research. that is not anybody's idea of a material omission that one part of the nunes memo memo that looks to be pretty discredited. other elements of the nunes memo are contested. one element is pretty discredited. there are fisa applications we have not yet seen and apparently there are no plans to release. that can answer these questions. so we're just left with the rest of this being part of some fight. this is why you wait to make your big judgments about wrongdoing until you hear from both sides.

a lot of these people were saying this worse than watergate stuff a few weeks ago go way out over their skis. all of the key claims are contested at this point. >>arthel: devin nunes is responding this afternoon to the democrat memo. i will read it to you. it says the american people now clearly understand the fbi use political dirt paid for by the democratic party to spy on an american citizen from the republican party. furthermore it goes on to say, the fisa court was misled about mr. pages past interactions with the fbi in which he helped build a case against russian operatives. in america, it defies belief that the department of justice and fbi failed to provide information to a secret court that they have provided to an open federal court regarding their past interactions with mr. page. what do you say to that reaction? >> i will be completely honest.

this guy provides so much partial information, i don't believe anything he says fully. at this point, i don't think the american people should have to believe anybody. i think the american people should be permitted to see evidence. what we have our dueling memos that provide partial pictures of the actual evidence. they are then asking us to make a conclusion about this complex intelligence operation. it's ridiculous. the whole thing is designed to stir up partisan passion and to gather the tribes in their respective camps and go at it. when there's an actual truth of the matter here that has been kept from us. it is still being kept from us and that's the actual intelligence involved here. it is going to be imperative that the american people see the real intelligence sooner rather than later with only the most limited redactions because this partisan food fight, that

they can be fully trusted is not in the best interest of the american people. >>arthel: which is part of the goal of the russians. do you feel special counsel mueller investigation, do you think it will provide finite information that americans to make decisions on their own as you are just pointing out? >> i really hope so. if the special counsel investigation does not provide the comprehensive information that americans need to see, then it has been a failure. i will say the indictment that was handed down against the russian entities, does help provide a better picture. although still only a partial picture of who russia was interacting with or trying to interact with in the united states. what they are trying to accomplish. there's a big story here. we don't know who colluded with who yet. we don't know if there was any collusion with term campaign officials.but there's a big story about russian efforts and to what extent to those efforts

motivate actions of americans or were in cooperation with americans. that's what we need to know about food it's the kind of thing that even now, more than a year in to all of this, we still don't know more than we know the one carter page was one of those americans who the russians were working with or trying to:. do we have that full-screen of carter page's statement? he is reacting to the memo as well. do we have that producers? okay, i will get it later in the show. we do have reaction from carter page. we have it, here it is. carter page is saying this latest smear campaign by the nc loyalists is going to turn out the same way as the original multi-million-dollar attack of 2016 as we have seen many times before with the felonious news leaks of the past year. this new round of misinformation surrounding effort by washington to illegally influence the 2016 election inflict even more damages on the instigating

propagator's. today's latest mellow further underscores the critical importance of the immediate disclosure of all of my fisa applications and other relevant documents as requested by the house intelligence committee. both congressional and judiciary committees, judicial watch, new york times, yale law school, et al. what will the democrats reaction be tomorrow on sunday shows? >> for the first time ever in my life, i agree with carter page on one thing. let's see the applications. what will the democratic reaction be? i think as over-the-top as the republican reaction was. they will get way out over their skis. they will say this disproves this and that when again, it questions republican assertions. it contests republican assertions but aside from providing that vice application regarding the disclosure that the christopher steele information was going to be used to discredit a political

opponent. which is an important piece of evidence. aside from that a lot of it is asking the american people to trust them. >>arthel: would you say the american people are the least serviced in this process? >> 100%. a sober and responsible investigation like the one the senate intelligence committee is doing to its credit, does not engage in this ridiculous food fight without providing the american people information we need to judge who is correct. >>arthel: thank you for joining us. >>eric: we continue to follow the latest developments on the democratic memo. president trump is putting more pressure on north korea. he announces two sanctions. we could be deploying our coast guard to stop illicit trade. will that rein in kim jong-un? we will look, straight ahead.

memo now released. catherine - - is life in washington with new information. >>reporter: there is clear division on the house intelligence committee between republicans and democrats. the democrats say the dossier was a small slice of evidence that was needed to get the surveillance warrant for a term campaign aide. republicans say it was the top line item the main element of the fisa application. there really is an independent third party and that is senator chuck grassley leads the senate judiciary committee and republican senator, lindsey graham.there have made a criminal referral about christopher steele who compiled the dossier. they say the justice department should investigate whether he lied to the fbi and others about his contacts with the media.in the letter which is

now public, you can read it online. they say the dossier really formed the bulk of the vice application.so that's a third party who was outside of this conflict between the republicans and democrats on the house intelligence committee who says yes, the dossier was unverified and was a top line item. it was the bulk of the intelligence that was used to secure that warrant. >>arthel: you have done a phenomenal job of going through these pages and breaking it down for us. thank you very much. >>eric: there is other news going on. president trump slapping sanctions on companies accused of aiding north korea's nuclear plan. he plans to expand - - [indiscernible]. that also could include the

point of a michael's card. this comes at first and senior advisor to the president, ivanka trump visit south korea to attend the closing ceremonies of the winter olympics tomorrow. will the ships squeeze work? - - is a foreign policy analyst. research fellow at the hoover institute. good to see you. it's not a blockade because under international law, potentially, that can be seen as an act of four. these are north korean introductions like wehave seen in the drug war . >> absolutely. this is an important and massive building block in a very deliberate strategy being called, the maximum pressure strategy. which is not against just north korea though of course it's focused on them. it's really being directed at a broader audience. the chinese, russians, our allies. the south koreans, japanese. but even those in southeast asia or perhaps on the fence about supporting us and stopping the illicit trade that

the north koreans are doing on the high seas. this really is the only way with all of those players i just mentioned to grab their attention and to make it clear that the america first strategy of the president is in place. the united states is having to go beyond the sanctions that the united nations imposed last year. >>eric: could that escalate the situation if these ships are being boarded illegally or legally? >> that's a good question i think it won't lead to an escalation if in fact, the administration takes the next step. which is to create a framework upon which allies can work with the u.s. in making this happen. it can be the united states alone on the high seas and in the waters of some countries that are cooperating with us. it has to be a coalition

effort. that's what the administration is attempting to do. for example, recently, secretary of state to listen was in vancouver at a foreign ministers meeting. he talked about the need for interdicting maritime interdiction against the north koreans. the broader effort which includes secretary minutiasteve mnuchin, all of them working together will make this a non-kinetic activity but one that has the powerful impact on stopping fuel, going to the north koreans. >>eric: that could be another step. as we continue, we'll see how kim jong-un reacts after the olympics. thank you so much. >> thank you. >>arthel: japan, south korea, australia and singapore are on board with this blocking - -
