russia, russia, stormy, stormy. a brand-new reportha breaking right here on the show. sara carter revealing fired fbi deputy director andrew mccabe may have given a stand-down order during the initial phase of that clinton email investigation. also chairman goodlatte, chairman gowdy, they struck a deal with the department of justice to turn over previous unreleased documents related to hillary clinton's private email server investigation. we will analyze all of this and so much more in tonight's very important breaking news opening monologue. ♪ as you just saw president trump moments ago wrapping up a toast with the french president at the first state dinner. the special relationship blossoming between the president and president macron. it's one aspect, huge trumpip diplomatic success.. the mainstream media won't report this but the trump administration, they are making incredible strides all over asia. t in fact, with every passing day,

the u.s. is now getting closer and closer to holding directr talks with north korea. just this week, the dictator kim jong un made a series of concessions, including the suspension of all ballistic missile testing, the closure of a nuclear development site, and north korea's rocket man even dropped a demand that the u.s. troops leave the korean peninsula. earlier today president trump lauded the progress and even had kind words for kim jong un and his newfound willingness to compromise on the world stage. watch this. >> kim jong un really has been very open and, i think, very honorable from everything we are seeing. now, a lot of promises have been made by north korea over the years, but they have never been in this position. i hope that we will be able to deal in a very open and honorable fashion with north korea. i started a process, and what i

did, everybody thought i was doing it absolutely wrong. but in the meantime, for 25 years, people have been dealing and nothing happened. and a lot is happening right now. i think we are doing very well. meetings are being set up, and n want to see denuclearization of north korea. a lot of concessions have already been made. we have made no concessions despite some of the media saying that i've made concessions.ss i haven't even discussed a a concession. >> sean: naturally, instead of reporting the diplomatic progress in the koreanan peninsula, which the whole world is safer if it works, your mainstream media twisting those remarks in order to trash the president once again and distract their viewers from trump's undeniable initial success all over the world stage. let's take a look at this. >> he said that north korea's dictator kim jong un has acted, has been very open and very honorable in how they have been dealing with, i guess, planning out their meeting to come. what do you make of that?

>> it's quite a strong adjectivm to use for a dictator of a nation that imprisons its people. >> he talked about how greatst kim jong un is being. >> you must talk about this just for a moment. did he call him a great leader? >> i don't know if you use the word great leader. he said honorable. >> honorable. >> and open. i don't know in real terms whether you can ever call him open. >> if any other president, democrat or republican, had used such words, donald trump would've been the first person to say it's outrageous to say that a dictator who represses all the human rights in this country, lets his people starve, takes americans hostage, is open and honorable. >> when i heard the word honorable, i thought of otto warmbier's parents who sat with me so many months ago talking about their son who was tortured in north korea. how is kim jong un honorable? >> there is nothing honorable about kim jong un. he's a sociopath. >> sean: you saw the mainstream media attacking this

president, no matter what he does. if he gave $10 million to every person on earth, they would say why not 11? i guess they forgot about trump's peace through strength strategy and how it's working. the united states sent to multiple carrier strike groups to the region. we increased the sanctions on the rogue regime. we pressured china and they helped. oh, yeah, and the president called out little rocketet man's terrible treatment of his own people in a very clear and public way without backing down. the media is not used to this. >> no one has shown more contempt for other nations and for the well-being of their own people than the depraved regime in north korea. it is responsible for the starvation deaths of millions of north koreans and for the imprisonment, torture, killing, and oppression of countless more. the horror of life in north korea is so complete that citizens pay bribes to

government officials to have themselves exported aboard ass slaves. they would rather be slaves than live in northth korea. no regime has oppressed its own citizens more totally or brutally than the cruel dictatorship in north korea. north korea's reckless pursuit of nuclear missiles could veryat soon threaten our homelands. >> sean: time for a history lesson. remember it was only a few months ago the mainstream media said that donald trump's tough action, his rhetoric, it would result in a nuclear holocaust. this was their predictions. watch this. >> the idea of a nuclear showdown with north korea keeps you up at night. i would recommend deleting your twitter app. >> he is not really being cavalier with a threat about nuclear war. he is being cavalier in a way that makes him seem demented.

>> these are the messages from a person who is not well, from a leader who is not fit for office. >> president trump is goading kim jong un to test a nuclear missile again, to prove its reliability, to show him wrong. and fundamentally i think it comes across as two kindergartners who are jostling each other, except that each has nuclear weapons.s.ne >> too late after 100,000 americans die. >> after a nuclear holocaust. >> or after a million die. >> that's where we are.ic this is not an exaggeration. >> trump's comments have experts worried he could inadvertently trigger a catastrophe. >> sean: catastrophe. let's get this straight. president trump takes toughs action and the media as a meltdown. the strategy brings kim jong un to the negotiating table talking about denuclearization of the entire korean peninsula. the president makes encouraging remarks, and the media still has a meltdown. do know what the media didn't

have a meltdown over? how about obama's appeasement of the mullahs in iran, what is probably the dumbest single deal in the history of mankind where the united states of america, your ex-president gave away 150 billion of your dollars, cargo planes full of cash and other currencies to a regime that chants "death to america. death to israel." on a weekly basis, burns our flag, burns the israeli flag all because of a promise from iran to temporarily halt their nuclear weapons program. they still got to spin their centrifuges and we didn't get to inspect anything. that's the dumbest deal ever. we didn't see the media freak out. remember, bill clinton said it's a good deal for the american people. his appeasement of north korea, kim jong il, kim jong un's father. remember this diplomatic dereliction? take a look. >> this is a good deal for the

united states. north korea will freeze and dismantle its nuclear program. south korea and our other allies will be better protected. the entire world will beou safer as we slow the spread of nuclear weapons.. south korea, with support from japan and other nations, will bear most of the cost of providing north korea with fuel nuclearup for the energy it is losing. and they will pay for an alternative power system for north korea that will allow them to produce electricity while making it much harder for them to produce nuclear weapons. the united states and international inspectors will carefully monitor north korea to make sure it keeps its commitments. only as it does so will north korea fully join k the community of nations. >> sean: didn't work out too well. it's time to learn from the failures on the world stage. appeasement never works. it incurs aggression. this is something former president reagan knew alt too well, which is why he refused to relent, refused to appease, refused to placate the soviet union, the former evil empire, as he described them.

back then, many on the left were also predicting the worst, that reagan would bring us to the brink of nuclear war. and what happened? the berlin wall came tumbling down. >> there is one sign the soviets can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace. general secretary gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the soviet union and eastern europe, if you seek liberalization, come here to this gate. mr. gorbachev, open this gate. mr. gorbachev, tear down this wall. >> sean: the wall came down. we will have more on president trump's significant diplomatic process throughout the show. we will show you how bribing dictators and kissing the rings of despots and murderers has failed all throughout history. let's turn to a brand-new

explosive report from our own sara carter uncovering a new revelation about serious misconduct at some of the highest levels of ourr government. according to sara, multiple sources are saying fired fbi deputy director andrew mccabe issued a stand-down order during the initial phases of the fbi's investigation into hillary clinton's private email server. according to carter's sources, mccabe was overseas when he became aware of the investigation and sent electronic communications voicing his displeasure with agents doing their job. one fbi official tells sara carter, "mccabe tried to steer people off the private email investigation that appears to be obstruction and shoulde be investigated." this of course comes on the heels of the ig report on mccabe's firing revealing "mccabe said that a high-ranking obama justice department official expressed concerns about fbi agents taking

overt steps in thede clinton foundation investigation during the presidential campaign." it's clear that during the 2016 presidential election, the deep state as we have now been reporting over a year, was alive and well. we have reached out to andrew mccabe for comment. we have yet t to hear back. also breaking tonight, sara carter tweeted out, "doj will make the sixdo months of missing texts that were eventually located by the ig, horowitz, between strzok and page available to congress sometime tonight or tomorrow, according to sources. that's developing." we will comb through those texts if and when they become available. a huge development. meanwhile we know that the house committee chairmen, bob goodlatte, trey gowdy, they are making huge strides on their efforts to hold this deep state accountable. this week, the two republican congressmen struck a deal with deferment of justice and will now gain access documentsit

surrounding the fbi's investigation into hillary clinton and how she mishandled classified information on her unauthorizedd private email server. these new developments should shine a light on why james comey gave white glove specialul treatment to hillary while turning a blind eye to her serious crimes. do we have equal justice under the law? tonight there is a new report james comey has lawyered up and he has tapped a personal friend, former u.s. attorney, to help him navigate the muddy legal water surrounding him. we did reach out to comey's attorney for comment. he said he's been part of comey's legal team since may of 2017. news to me. tonight i have some friendly advice for comey's lawyer. you might want to acclimate your client with 18 usc 793 about leaking classified information, which is a serious crime. and your client needs to be held accountable. i've said many times this year, 2018, is the year of the boomerang, and now it's timear r the disgraced former fbi director to answer for his

deliberate improper and now potentially criminal actions. i told you this is the biggest abuse of power, corruption, scandal in the history of this country. the media has been entirely missing in action the entire time. the same can be said of the many people at the highest levels of power. sadly, no wonder why they attacked me and the show pretty much hourly, daily. "hannity, hannity, hannity." joining us now sara carter. fox news legal analyst gregg jarrett. sara, let's get into a deep dive. s >> one of the most important things we have discovered, sean, is the fact, and this has been going on for sometime. i've been looking into this for over a year now. is that mccabe actually gave aee stand-down order, according to the sources that i spoke with, in the early phases of the hillary clinton use of a private email. that would have been in march 2015 after "the new york times" first broke the story that she was using a private email from government

business. shortly after that story came out, fbi agents with the washington, d.c., field office opened an investigation into hillary clinton and began to look into all aspects of that. at that time, mccabe was overseas in europe. and sent a message according to the sources i spoke with, electronically to those agents and told them to back off and to stay away from that. remember it wasn't until july when the inspector general had asked the doj, that was inin 2015, to open an investigation into hillary clinton. this is a significant development, sean, because that means there were possibly two stand-down orders. we know "the wall street journal" reported there was possibly a standout order on the clinton foundation investigation. this adds a whole new scope tord that and apparently there is evidence to show it. >> sean: let's go to gregg. so much to cover in this.

>> if mccabe actually for political reasons gave a standout order, that would arguably be obstruction of justice. s even fbi officials can obstruct their own investigation. it never made sense that people like david petraeus and sandy berger, half a dozen other people or prosecuted for doing the exact same thing that hillary clinton did. and yet comey stood in front of television cameras in 2016, in july, and said no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case. he seemed to have amnesia thatec many reasonable prosecutors, including his own, had done the exact same thing. it's very curious here. >> sean: we warned him. right here. you warned him. i warned him.ri no good lawyer would let him write this book or go on this w tour. >> the other aspect is that we've learned today that he'sis hired yet another lawyer.

the first lawyer, daniel richman, is that person to whom comey leaked seven stolen presidential memos, four of which were classified. >> sean: is that a conflict? >> so now he can hide behind the attorney-client privilege with richman, and if he also gave those same memos to fitzgerald, and i believe he did, he has now hired him to hide behind the attorney-client privilege. >> sean: the guy that puts scooter libby, who was recently pardoned, he's the one who put him on trial. got a conviction. >> that's correct. so you've got comey now versus mccabe. i suspect mccabe is going to start singing like a a canary because he is in serious legal jeopardy now with the criminal referral against him for lying to the inspector general. >> sean: sara, last word. >> i think a lot of people are singing like canaries, peter strzok and lisa page and everybody else. >> sean: why do they still have top security clearance?

why do they still have access to this information? >> i think it's important because i think the inspector general still has access to them as long as they are still employed. remember they are t civil servants. l it's not easy to get rid of them. but i have a feeling that they are actually cooperating, and that's why they're there. >> sean: last word, gregg. >> i think when the inspector general report comes out and criminal referrals are made, plea deals are going to be had, and people are going to start flipping and incriminating and implicating other people. and one of those people may be james comey who is now hocking his book, pocketing millions of dollars, and he better hang onto that cash because he made needed for his criminal defense.s >> sean: amazing. great reporting. thank you, gregg. thank you, sara.ef president trump praised the cooperation between france and the united states standing up to the mullahs in tehran and fighting isis radicals. take a look. >> france and the united states also agree that iran cannot be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon.

that regime must end its support of terrorists. all over, no matter where you go in the middle east, you see the fingerprints of iran behind problems. i also want to thank president macron for france's vital contribution to our very successful campaign against isis. >> sean: here with reaction, former deputy assistant to the president and fox news national security strategist sebastian gorka and nra tv contributor, former secret service agent, dan bongino. all across asia, you see these relationships, prime minister of japan, president of china capitulating on intellectual property rights, on trade, on automobiles, on tariffs. you see what what was unspeakable, dr. gorka, an amazing alliance to combatat

iranian hegemony between united states, israel, saudis, the emirates, jordanians, egyptians. unthinkable in the obama years. >> yeah, and all of this in just 15 months. think about what he has>> achieved. we have nato, we have the french prime minister within minutes of meeting the president on the state visit saying, you want us to spend more on our defense,si stop being freeloaders? you've got it. the nato secretary general has done the same. that's after decades of freeloading inside nato. we have seen isis decimated in terms of the physical caliphate. we have seen all of our friends and allies reassured in asia and it goes on and on and on. it's really quite stunning. these are the kinds of results you would be proud of as the president at the end of your second term, maybe at the end of your first term, but not at the end of your very, very first term.. just the idea that sunni states, arab sunni states, are now

cooperating hand in glove with israel to deal with the threat of jihadi violence. it's stunning. >> sean: it's unbelievable. it's interesting, as the president isolated north korea, we saw, dan bongino, what the north koreans did. the relationship come with a good relationship president trump had with the president of china. that played a big part in all of this. acquiescing on major issues. now you see the same thing happening, the alliance created against the iranian mullahs. very different approach than backing up 150 billion in cash and other currencies in cargo planes. >> yeah, sean, i think one of trump's assets has been his unpredictability. you can chalk that up to whatever you want. the left-leaning hacks and the media have been taking pot shots at trump and his foreign policy forever. sebastian is right. they mocked him over his approach to nato until these countries started making larger

commitments to nato. they mocked him over his approach to north korea. oh, he's going to get us intohi nuclear war. now they north koreans are coming to the table with at least talks. i don't want to oversell it, for denuclearization. you can't deny the fact, sean, that his relationship with china, the economic pressure he put on china due to his tariff threat, probably had something to do with it. honestly, it is sad as an american to watch the media, not all of them. there are a few have come around a little bit on this but most of them just continue to mock this guy as some kind of a buffoon as he runs rings about what obama did in eight years. >> sean: i want to thank you both. incredible night, incredible opportunity for the world. appeasement never works. peace through strength works. again, we saw it with neville chamberlain versus winston churchill. all of the people against ronald reagan, and we see it working here. obama's appeasement didn't work. clinton's appeasement didn't work. unbelievable. so much other breaking news tonight. ed henry has a live report on the president's high-stakes summit with the french president

>> sean: we are looking live at the white house >> sean: we are looking live at the white house where president trump, the first lady, melania trump, hosting the french president and his wife brigitte for a state dinner. reactions on the president's visit from france. we have new news breaking from catherine herridge about comey's memo. special employee status. this guy richman, the columbia professor. ed henry. >> that is breaking tonight. comey memos still resonating and impacting.ig you're right, the president also conducting a lot of business with the french president. they appear to have made some progress in dealing with iran.

that matters big time. think back to what the iranian foreign minister said on sunday. he basically threatened that if the u.s. pulls out of the nuclear deal, iran is going to speed up its nuclear activities this is a big deal. because what happened tonight, as bob corker, no ally of this president was on fox, saying he thinks the president is - making strong moves with his french counterpart, particularlt on iran. this may make the world to save her. the president appears to be developing a compromise with president macron of france on reshaping the iran nuclear deal instead of scrapping it altogether. the president again today said the deal is insane and he wants to get rid of it if he has to. but also added if tehran restarts its nuclear program, "you can mark it down. they will have bigger problems than they've ever had before." president macron meanwhile largely supports the obama-brokered deal but h said

today he wants to address president trump's concerns byhe building on the original agreement instead of scrapping it altogether.er watch. >> this is a deal with decayed foundations. it's a bad deal. it's a bad structure. it's falling down. if iran threatens us in any way, they will pay a price like few countries have ever paid. >> no matter what it is about building a stable framework that will contribute to stability. it's not about tearing apart in agreement and having nothing but it's about building something new that will cover our concerns.n >> these leaders have built some rapport after those syrian air strikes that the u.s. and france conducted together as allies. there is a split over how long u.s. troops will stay in syria. the president saying he wants to make big decisions in a very short period of time for pullins out u.s. troops. macron today said he wants to stretch out the timetable butor the bottom line is what you. are

seeing is progress on some of these key issues. some of the president's critics knocked him for some tough rhetoric last year on north korea, now you see north korea at the table. the president continuing tough rhetoric aimed at iran. and you see the french president trying here to broker a way forward, sean. >> sean: ed henry at the white house. we appreciate it, as always. joining us now north carolina, congressman, chairman of the house from caucus and also from caucus member florida congressman -- full disclosure -- who i want to be the next florida governor.gr mark meadows. i shared a cookie with him in a green room in washington, d.c. full disclosure. welcome, both of you, back to the program. congressman meadows, let me go back. are we really going to get six months worth of strzok-page memos? what percentage is that? >> i believe we will get them. the department of justice is working very closely with chairman gowdy and chairman goodlatte.

there is a critical gap of about three critical months of the strzok-page memos that we believe will be very enlightening.-p in fact, some of that we believe will put some context to director comey's claims that he was an innocent bystander in all of this. we don't believe the facts are bearing that out. >> sean: interesting report by sara carter tonight. a i guess you probably wouldn't be able to answer. i won't. i will spare my time. one of the things that we know. over a year ago, the state department was supposed to hand over some 72,000 clinton emails, congressman desantis. we are still waiting for those emails. do we know if that's part of the deleted emails? is there any knowledge that those 33,000 emails were ever recovered that we know that she tried to acid wash and destroy? >> that's the thing, sean.

you almost always can find the emails somewhere.ne yet in this case, it wasom the fbi's judgment that these 30,000 emails, we can't find them. in judicial watch litigation for foia, they identified the backup server as potentially having those. the fbi never searched that. i asked christopher wray whether they did. he could not confirm they did. we need to look at all the possible areas where those emails were because when you have emails subpoenaed, you don't just turn over the ones you want to turn over and then acid wash the rest. that's not the way it works. i think there were a lot of work-related emails that they deleted. there may have been emails related to the foundation and other things that are of interest to congress, so we've got to find them if they are out there. >> sean: congressman meadows, if you look at the original, the exoneration of comey and strzok and strzok eventually interviewed hillary. the original exoneration written months before the investigation, before the hillary interview.

they said and it had been reported that five foreign agencies hacked into hillary's server in the mom-and-pop bathroom closet. here's my question. that means they exist. wikileaks is a separate issue. they have always said it's not russia. but if james comey's original piece said these entities had hacked into it, that means other countries likely have them. so wouldn't it mean we would be able to recover those emails? because i don't believe these 33,000 emails about any one wedding, funeral, or yoga that exist on this planet. >> you don't believe it. i don't believe it. the american people don't believe it because as we look at 30,000 emails, getting rid of those, isn't it interesting there may be more foreign governments with hillary clinton's emails than congress or those who are going after it. i just find it inexcusable. as we looked at this, the bigger picture really right now is, are we going to get to the bottom of it.

i can tell you people i have the privilege of serving say it's about time we get to the bottom of it. i think the coming days will provide a lot of fruit. >> sean: it's amazing how everything has backfired and boomeranged. you've done a phenomenal job. the american people deserve to get the truth on emails, about fixed investigations, fisa abuses, hillary paying for ad dossier full of russian -- we need to get to the bottom of all of it. when we come back, president trump's state dinner with the french president. ainsley earhardt is here.ac straight ahead. ♪ here.

"hollywood reporter." is melania trump channeling celine dion, beyonce?n, you know what. you know that everyone is saying. everyone that i've talked to is saying what a beautiful hat. she looks gorgeous. she had the last laugh. >> sean: before you released your book, you were kind enough to give me a copy, and i had a chance to go over the book andou read it. i did write a blurb. along with tim tebow. you have pretty good friends, high-ranking friends in your life. i said very few public figures would be this real. you talk openly about your christian faith. you dedicate the book to jesus, and you talk about this on the program. you talk about really hard

things in your life. and you reveal all of these things. i could never do that. i am more private. tell us why it tells about the things in the book. >> and harpercollins came to me and they said we want you to write a memoir about your faith, i thought a memoir is usually for someone who is 75 years old. i thought i don't feel like i have had enough of a life. i felt like -- i didn't wanted to be all about me. then whenel they say we want you to talk about your faith, it's like god asking you to tell his story and what he's done in my life. and i can't say no to that. i continue to say yes to god. i haven't always in every situation, but i've learned the hard way that if you don't say yes when god is nudging you to do something, then you won't be blessing someone's life. or you won't be giving him the glory that he deserves. i had to say yes. >> sean: you did a lot of assignments over the years for hannity's america and this program. we were terrible.. i think -- we sent you down to spring break.
