>> truman ass the nat 1 on thef korean war. quote what we are doing in korea is this. we are trying to prevent a third world war and this may be a turning point for a search in a practical way of achieving peace and security. and that mission goes on. ♪ >> eve ael tucker carlsonight. it tns out the doj failed to dictate the final result of the 2,018 presidential election, but a year and a half into the trump administration the justice department still seems to at times be operating as a shadow government, a place that considers itself beyond the reach of normal oversight. back in the real world, congress has the explicit constitutional power to oversee the fbi and a othercutincies, less weight supposed to work. apparently that fact infuriates the deputy attorney general rob rosenstein.

earlier this year in january, rosensteinhreatened to appeal the email sent on staffers because of her being too aggressive. the message from rosenstein, back off. you don't investigate us, we will investigate you. fox's chief correspondent catherine herridge broke that story and she has more on it tonight. speak of the emails written on government accounts formerly documented the january meeting for the house office of general counsel. the tough lawyer for protecting congress. fbi director christopher wray, their senior advisors as well as house intelligecommittee chairman devin nunes and his senior staff. it came at the height of alleged government surveillance usage viewed at the trump campaign. today they responded to allegations and rob rosenstein threatened to subpoena records and turn the tables on republican-led house intelligence committee and staff over the russia case. >> it is deeply concerning them

instead of having a cooperative relationship with his agency, respectful of the importance of the congress having access to documents regarding matters that they are investigating, that they have out oversight responsibility for, this is not the way to conduct that. speak out the fbi and justice department strongly dispute the characterization . the justice department official told fox news that rosenstein never threatene with criminal investigation. housmmittedemocrat took aim at german nunez who stopped for a document of incident. >> i know the reputation of rob rosenstein and that is one of impeccable character. and i know the reputation of it devin nunes, and that is one of misleading, obstructing, attempting to intervene in an investigation. >> today, chairman inez an members of the house intelligence committee sign this letter to rob rosenstein rejecting another briefing by the fbi saying, anything short of providing the records that

are under subpoena in the opening and is an obstruction of justice. tucker? >> tucker: thank you for breaking that story in the first place. is nothe o example of theavior doj apparently viewing itself as beyond beyond normal oversight. months ago, we discovered that fbi agents peter strzok and other page were using their personal views intruding on their law enforcement duties. how far will that go into wells may be involved? the public has a right to know that but we don't because the doj keeps trying to censor the text messages before relisting them. here's one example. in a september 2015 text, he maintains about the handling of a case but the exact route complaint was her exact stomach rejected. thanks to work by senator ron johnson's office, know that he wanted to quote bargain away everything and that it had a quote stockholm syndrome.

and how they did everything they could to avoid bringing crges against any of clinton's team. what is clear, is that nothing he said was a security threat that would require a reduction in order to protect the country. the doj was just trying to cover itself from keeping the public from learning the truth about what was going on, is not a defense? professor, it's a very simple question. is the department of justice allowed to redact information solely for the purpose of protecting its on reputation? >> it is not, even though it has a long history of doing so, not just in congress but in the courts. what's really funny is, they will charge somee who gives the misleading information, but they will tell congress that they rejected classified information that proves entirely unclassified. there is this sense of acting

without her impunity, when you redact these types of documents. and that material is classified under any defition. they can disagree with chairman nunez, they can disagree with the white house, but they should all agree on the fact that this is an improper use of reduction. >>r: and it's been going on you set for quite some time, so this is basically the status quo, not a new way of ing business? >> unfortunately it is. i've been counseling security cases against the government, and i have redacted to the courts that it's clearly not classified.

and, n disputesharob rosenstein went over to the congress and threatened to subpoena the personal communications of members there. have you ever seen anything like the relationship betwe sugge the doj and the oversight committee these committees have not had a robust oversight record. they often roll over. this is something new, and frankly, those of us who wanted more oversight have welcomed the last year. finally you have a committee ying, wait. and threatening weather it's criminal or civil, staffers mbers, it's clearly

inappropriate. i can understand that rosenstein may have felt he was being mistreated, but that doesn't matter. you have to get over it. congress created the department of justice, this isn't personal. it isversight buss. so no matter how aggrieved you may be, you cant speak to an oversight committee and threaten those staffers with taking something like subpoenas to their doorstep. >> tucker: congress does have oversight over the executive agencies, including the department of justice, correct? i mean, you watch the other channels and would think that was something that the right-wingers made up last week. but that's a constitutional principle, am i right? >> that's absolutely right and you shouldn't pick fights with people with ersight power. >> tucker: yeah, i guess you shouldn't. professor, thank you very much. dana goldman isme federal precutor and he joins us. thanks for coming on. >> my pleasure, thanks for being here. >> tucker: so this is a good

point, and one i've heard others make before. this is been going on for a long time, not just this administration by previous mions, where the department of justice withholds informatn from congress claiming it's classified, and when unredacted, it turns out to be not classified. they were lying. why would anyone defend that practice? >> these things can often be subject to interpretation, and the prosecutor may have se belief that an initial stage that they are, or the department of justice may have a belief that things are classified out there in relation to that case or other cases, or they may be some theory that it is classified and the defense attorney disagreed and said it's not classified. ultimately, a judge decides it. this is no different than -- >> tucker: let me give you an example. this is a little bit different. for example, the trump department of justiceithheld this information from the congress that andrew mccabe

spent $70,000 on a conference table. now you could argue that he had a right to do that or it was appropriate or whatever, but you can't argue that that information itself is classified are critical to national security. why would anyone def that? you are trying to hone in on one particular reason why things are redacted,orshould not be. the one what would be the justification for him rejecting spending 70,000 on a conference table? >> i don't know, and i don't know the detailed circumstances. but the point that i would want to make to you and listening to jonathan turley as well, we are looking at these as reductions and loot these of the overght role into the department of justice. you have to draw a clear line between investigations that are over such as the clinton email investigations, and investigations that are ongoing such as the trump russian investigation.

there is a long-standing practice that the department of justice does not give over information relevant to ongoing to congress, and that is sometuse intelligence committee, through the use of their purported overght role has sort of done away with and tryo get it. >> tucker: it when you say purported oversight role, do they not have oversight role? >> if they have an oversight role. >> tucker: what do you mean purported oversight role? >> they are using the guise of their oversight role app to ask for information that either they should not get, or that they tentially and by accounts coordinated wit the white house and others who aren't subject of the investigation. that's entirely improper. >> tucker: i understand you are a partisan involved in the parts and debate, but take three steps back. there is a public interest here so we know that the last administration had a paid

informant spying on at least ree members of the trump campaign. maybe there was a good reason and maybe there wasn't but the fact is, it was true. and the fact is that shakes they of tepartment of justice. so why wn'tesponsible people do their very best to explain why that happened as soon as they possibly could and calm public fears if the system is corrupt? because the public believes it including me. why wouldn't we want to know why that happened? >> i am not partisan. i think that people who use the term spy in the context of a confidential informant are doing only for partisan reasons. when you are going down that road ofsing a spy, -- >> tucker: what i doing is speaking english and what you're doing is carrying water for a political party. i'm saying they gathered information without the knowledge of the people they re speaking to. >> what happens in thousands of investigations across country.

>> tucker: it may, but it doesn't again so the question, which i think i have a right to know, which is, why did that happen? is not normal. >> you don't have the right to know, e investigations are confidentifb investigare confidential f very important reasons includi the protection of people who aren't charged and the sources of information, such as confidential infmants. >> tucker: i understand. i would actually disagree with you completely, and i know you are a form of so comg this from a different point of view, obviously. but no one is disputing it happen to come up we know the names of the people involved. all that information is public and it's been in "the new york times. you acknowledge there is a public interest in explaining this to the public so they can trust the government aga. why was the obama administration spying on the campaign? >> i don'tispute that there is a public interest. i outweigdn current moment by an ongoing and

confidential investigation. the public does have a right to know at some point after the ongoing investigation is not jeopardized by telio >>r: shy are people like me w are asking honest, tisan questions.ely like, ho did this happen? wham i being attacked as someone who is challenging the rule of law or seeking to dermine the system? my position is, i'm trying to preserve public faith in the system with sunlight. i thought that was a traditional on, is it not? >> i agree with you. i'm just saying there is a public interest and i think that you and others have a right to know what happened during the course of an investigation. just not while the investigation that's a critical difference. by preserving the rule of law, you have to preserve the confidentiality of investigation, and ultimately it will all come out. you do have a right to know and

that's why i draw the distinction between the clinton email investigation, which is over, and a ongoing investigation where the confidential informant is very relevant. >> tucker:anl, thank you for that, i appreciate it. house republicans are making another push at immigration. will their bills fulfill the president's promises during the campaign or are theyet another slap to the donor class? nextillet to that question, hey! we didn't have a homeowners claim last year so allstate is giving us money back on our bill. well, that seems fair. we didn't use it. wish we got moy ck on gym membships. get money back hilarious. with claim-free rewards. switching to allstate is worth it. ♪ now that i'm on my way ♪ do you still think i'm crazy standing here today ♪ ♪ i couldn't make you love me applebee's 2 for $20, now with steak. now that's eatin' good in the neighborhood.

>> tucker:ouse republicans once again trying to hammer out a deal on immigration ahead of

the fall election. they feel that's very important for some reason. a current draft for proposal being considered by republican leaders is probably better than prior proposals but it falls short of whathe current president campaigned on. it would to give amnesty to some da ca recipients, and also it would create more merit-based legal immigration system. but it would not in chain migration cut over migration levels or critically implement e-verify to keep employers from employing illegal aliens. what to make of this plan exactly? lou dobbs is of course the host of lou dobbs tonight on fox business and it may be the only other person in life that has followed this so carefully over a decade. what do you make of this? it's complex that i know you can cut toeart of it. >> let's cut through the complexity because first of all, we don't know what's in it.

there has been no writing of tax amendments. it's a preposterous closed room deal, entirely drawn u the speaker, who is owned lock, stock, and barrel by k street, the chamber of commerce, the business roundtable, the koch brothers and wall street. so it won't be favor of american middle-class and american working families, and indeed, that is his hallmark for 20 years in the house. he works for k street. >> tucker: so why the push to get this through without a debate? it seems like the republicans could win this debate if you look at all the polling on it, and the republicans are basically on the side. >> lou: as you have reported,

you can slice and dice the demographics anyway want to come and more people are disgusted and appald by that dilatory us and a negative impact of illegal immigration into this country, and that is simply the straightforward fact. but they can't even raise a voice that is even remotely comparable to the ownership of the establishment and global elites who are demanding cheap labor. and that is straightforward. it is your purpose to bring more immigration into this country and to preserve lower wages. just as president trump has wages rising, the middle class is now growing. it was stagnant and it declining for 20 years until president trump moved into the oval office. >> tucker: is a you are saying the current rlican leadership is willing to ignore the basic lefts on the last election and the expressed will of the american population in order to serve the interest of a very small group of people to

pay the bills. b6 absolutely. and ryan is a lame duck speaker, he will only be in office until january of next year, he resigned. but that's all the republican conference can do in the house of representatives. he is now in franchise with the leadership conference and also what would be assuredly a loss of 50 seats in the midterm elections as a result of moving into the amnesty of this. the pace will not stand for this minute, no matter how popular the president is. and he is wildly popular. no matter the fictions that are spun up by ryan and his so-called leadership council. >> tucker: do they have pollsters who are telling them that politically, this is smart? >> lou: no. they have weltrategists telling them they suld run on the tax cuts, rather than the trump agenda, which is the tax

cuts, deregulation, balancing international trade, creating jobs, bring it back manufacturing, dealing with all the important issues in foreign policy,er it is the immense and an end success of e singapore summit, which is just one of a litany of achievements that this president unprecedented achievements. it is absolute disaster. >> tucker: >> tucker: rhinos rue lemmings, mindlessly. blue jobs, gre to see you. >> lou: the lemmings, i will admit, it was redundant. >> tucker: of berkeley has a plan for fixing the climate emergency they have identified. population control. you know it was coming to that

and said governments must make efforts to "humanely stabilize population. that's a phrase which robespierre would surely love. thanks so much for coming on. >> thanks for having me, tucker. >> tucker: so i'm a pretty teral person, if they say climate emergency, tounds me. so if it's a emergency, why does anyone in berkeley have an air conditioner? i hate to sort of acts that people live out their purported beliefs, but if they are telling the rest of us we need to have fewer kids, why are they still driving and using the ac? >> i totally believe, tucker but i don't think they are telling us to have less babies. climate change and the impact that human beings have on environment is related to a lot of stuff. that we ar having but carbon emissions and eating less meat. i think we can all agree that we care about our planet but it's not about having less children.

>> tucker: and i don't think it is. >> are we agreeing? is insane and grotesque and it's a window into what this really is, which is -- >> they aren't saying it's an emergency, everyone has stomach and stop having babies. >> tucker: but hold on. if they are saying and it's an emergency, presumably they bet is. so han they justify writing biases, having cars, refrigerators, any activity that adds to the sum total of co2 emissions? why are they still committing these activities? why should i listen and take anyone seriously who is driving a car and simultaneously telling me not to have more kids? >> i don't think are saying that. it's a combination of factors. and it's a complex environment.

i think in general, the younger generation, the millennials, are becoming more environmentally cautious. i think the technology is catching up to the fact that people are becoming more >> tucker: if people are much poorer because they are deeply in studentt for degreesat mea ny have boughto the system that is essential and down like a socially fraudulent, and they have no money. they are environmentally conscious, but they are poor. >> that's one part of it, but there's more than one factor when it comes to climate change and what we can do to reduce our impact. >> tucker: i am actually in favor of a clean environment. so i wonder why, have you noticed this? places that spend of the most energy telling the rest of us that the world isnding because of climate change also tend to have the dirty streets and the largest number of peo relieving themselves on the

sidewalk, and the most trash? if you care about the environment, maybe you should clean up in front of city does that occur to liberals? >> it's not just liberals that are responsible for climate change, it's all of us. and i agree with you, we can't just talk the talk, we have to follow up with actions. >> tucker: but seriously, if you care about the environment and making the world a cleaner -- and clearly i am for that. >> we agree with that, we all want to keep the environment cleaner. >> tucker: have you been to berkeley? new york city? san francisco? there are people relieving themselves on the sidewalk and then walking around them are environmentalists wanting to lecture me about how many kids i have. >> but you know what, it's not necessarily about where in the world is more populated, it's about who is using more resources. and i agree with you that we have to do much better. >> tucker: do you agree that

if we are going to make the world cleaner, we could start by cleaning up the sidewalks? then we could maybe get to the part about fixing the hole in the ozone layer. >> i don't think it can be either or,very day. speak one way or the cities with the most open and aggressive commitment to the environment the dirtiest? why is portland, oregon, a filthy place downtown? >> that's not true. i'm not talking specifically about portland, but not all cities that are saying that we need to do better about our environment are filthy. we are you getting that from? >> tucker: okay. track with me ruick just for this one question. if you say you care about the environment, do you agree or disagree that maybe you should start by cleaning up the street in front of your house? >> why can't you do both? do both. >> tucker: i'm not saying that you can't do both. but wh is it that the people

lecturing me about and the environment live in environments that are filthy? >> we all care about the planet and can do more. >> tucker: we don't all care about the planet. my house has nobody sleeping on the front step because i care about the environment. >> okay. >> tucker: great to see you. up next, the creepy lawyer not doing as well as he once did. a creepy porn lawyer update, next life insurance policies. knowing that usaa will always have my back... that's just one less thing you have to worry about. i dn't imagine going anywhere else. they're like a friend of the family. we are the cochran family, sal bea members for life. save by bundling usaa home

united states, the catalonian independence movement in spain, social media attacks on paul rain, hacking of the electoral grade, the 2017 documentary not winning an ox, or care, wikileaks, opposition to the deep state, and an airplane crash that killed 69 russians in february, not wanting to give guns to the ukraine and even,,bs decision to bomb syria, in which thousands of russian troops are currently sick stomach stationed. apparently the russians managed to do all of this, working at cross purst themselves. and still, this is amazing thing, and a credit to slavic v gore, still having thergy to go after creepy porn lawyer here in the american cable news world. they are amazing, those russian russians.

the war on standards a the faa where relevant biographica questions were imposed on aspiring air traffic controllers. sadly, this is far from the only example of standardseclining in the united states. beneath public view, there is never a debate on any of this. it just happens in scientific fields. you wouldn't think it would come up but it is. heather mcdonald has chronicled it in detail. hools and other institutions are cutting requirements in an effort to be more diverse, whatever that means. heather macdonald also wrote the upcoming boo she joins us tonight. heather, thank you for coming on. we were stunned to find that the faa was intentionally trying to hi unqualified air traffic controllers because it's insane and dangerous. but you wouldn't think that same impulse would find its way into hard sciences, like medicine or research scientists, but you say it is? >> heather: it's very

ng, tucker. there's not aingle point that is free and that's the irrelevant criteria of race and gender. it's doing r this as, get this, enter sexuality. this is not what congress had i mind when they created the national science foundation in 1952 sponsor seriousentificrese. we are putting our scientific competitiveness at great risky introducing the total irrelevancy of race and gender diversity into scientific accomplishment >> tucker: will confused because i thought the left believed in science, they had a little march announcing that i think t a year and a half ago. is there scientific evidence of

race or gender of a scientific researcher, for example, is material that affects the outcome of the experiment in some way? >> heather: while the left hates science when it's proving facts that like, and it hates objectivity. there is no scientific evidence. we have had 200 grantees of the national science foundation that have one about prizes. things like discovering dark matter, discovering how viruses work, and this was with utter indifference. true color blindness, a true meritocracy. and they can see on the left that diversity matters in scientific thinking. well, it doesn't. if the lab is all-female, all asian, all-black, great. all the public cares about is, alzheimer's?ing to cure that we do that is by being color and gender blind and hiring on merit, not based on

rosenstein has been caught threatening staffers with subpoenas for trying to do their job, overseeing his agency. tomorrow, michael horowitz will release his report on the hillary clinton email investigation. they could shi l on a number of key players in that probe. what exactly can we expect from it? joining us now is glenn greenwald, editor of the intercept. he joins us from rio. thank you for coming on. what exactly will we see tomorrow in the ig report? >> the focus is the behavior of the fbi and also the justice department as part of the 2016 elections, particularly possible criminality as related to the private email server. there are, i think, a consensus of reports that suggest that the report will lambaste jim comey, the than fbi director andrew

mccabe become his deputy, as well as criticize lorettaynch. they could cut both ways because, particularly you should have never stood up at the press conference in mid-2016, and when he announced there would be charges brought againstary clind to critior what she did. it's also possible though to conclude that there was political bias on the whole process that led to the decision not to charge hillary clinton in the first place. so it's unclear who politically it would help but it certainly will reflect by all accounts very clearly. >> i am not a hillary clinton photo voter but that was not his role. i am very struck by the reaction to this story in the press. the default seems to be, you don't have a right, to know what

they are doing, and b, depressed to find out. with the press be interested in actually knowing what happened at doj? >> glen: this is bn of course but i think the principal defectives with the media, they so closely identify and they more often and then not end up defending their prerogatives and their secrecy powers and what it is they do rather than trying to do their job which is to shine a light on what it is they are doing. obviously any agency that the justice department does have, when they are conducting a criminal investigation or being involved in with the grand jury, they should know what the people are investigating. they don't want their name being smeared. but when you are talking about something as politically momentous as jim comey's investigation of the two major

political candidates, once the investigation is over, and in heller clinton's case, the investigation has been brought to an end, we want to know everything about w they did and what they said. there's almost this anger on people who want to bring transparency and allowing the people to see your emails and i think that's very problematic. >> tucker: is steeply revealing of them. quickly, you cover this stuff for a long time. when the truth finally comes to light, how often have you noticed that information we weren't allowed to see because it was classified and held back in terms of the safety of the united states of america, it turned out to be not classified at all. it termed to it turned out to e just covering them. it's been a >> glen: when the

government claims that things things have to be kept secret, one of two things is . either the information is incredibly banal and isn't the kind of thing that needs to be kept from the african people, or the reason they want to keep it secret is not to protect national security but to shi their own reputations and potentially their own legal interests because they were engaged in secret wrongdoings. in a healthy democracy, the presumption should be, the people should know what their government is doing and the government should know people are doing, and we reverse that. now they know almost everything we do and we know nothing they do that it's disturbing. >> tucker: that is true. glenn greenwald, thank you. he's one of the most honest commenters on american politics and he i also deeply committed to dogs and runs a dog shelter out of his house. so we will talk tim about that in great detail in the next inside the issues special lady of the summer. stated for that.
