piece of evidence and that text where he talks about insurance policies where he essentially is talking about undermining a presidential campaign because he and a few other people let's be clear ninety nine point nine nine percent of f.b.i. agent street agents do their job bravely with integrity with fidelity the acronym you know the f.b.i. is motto but nobody bravery integrity we're talking about a few bad actors at the top we're talking about the arch villain and for mccabe we're talking about the moron puppet james komi who was fired and by the way the president has every right to fire the f.b.i. director should a president who is the chief law enforcement officer he can fire the f.b.i. director because it's tuesday and raining and he's in a bad mood he doesn't need a reason and peter stroker was mccabe's little henchmen so they were definitely plotting to undermine the presidential election it wasn't a political politicization of the f.b.i. it was the weaponization of the department of justice of the f.b.i. of the intelligence community on behalf of criminal one of the dirtiest people ever in politics hillary clinton people need to go to jail there should be

a special counsel and the office of inspector general has four hundred fifty gun and badge carrying agents who need to start making arrests ok josh and i want to go back to this fusion g.p.s. thing and or his wife nellie here i mean that begs investigation here i'm so sorry because we've all read that dossier it is just completely hogwash it's ridiculous ok and they're basing their investigation of trump and his campaign based on this and somebody in the f.b.i. at a high level his wife is working they're cutting a pay check come on josh you're absolutely right and not only that the fake ca was used in order to get the pfizer. warrant to then spy on trump and his associates so in other words that was illegal as well because they were using something that was debunked and was not an even accurate document going back to what. it said first of all richard there was three three million illegal

votes in the election and hillary only won what fifty two how do you know higher counties and trump one about three thousand ok well at least three million but here's the thing let me ask this to richard why aren't we doing an investigation into james komi he's at mit and leaking when he gave testimony during the senate judiciary committee why aren't we now also looking into tarmac gate in which you know loretta lynch is talking to bill clinton and then the next thing you know we've got hillary clinton exonerated because it's carelessness and not gross negligence which would have been a crime why aren't we investigating susan rice's unmasking why aren't we investigating barack obama spying and using loretta lynch as as a as a hit person if you will to go in and do all those things that have been done where are those investigations how can we sit here with a straight face and say that there's russian collusion when we have all of these

other things including uranium one and everything else that is going on twenty johnson. years and richard about ten things let him get started on some of them go ahead richard yes please james komi testified that he spoke with donald trump nine different times ok and trump did not once asked what did the russians do and you know why it was the same reason that o.j. simpson never said to the police what happened to nicole because trump knew and he knows so this is again this is alice in wonderland stuff let me give you an example of collusion let's assume somebody robbed the department the department store goom or tiffany's and they've said to you we have all these soul and goods would you like them i'd love that let's meet. so what do you call that you think that person who says i'd love to look at those stolen goods you think they have clean hands are dirty hands that's what congress is looking at that's what lois looking at case you

think that's a great player to marry her don't let up on come on richard you got to be i guarantee a democrat the democratic ticket the democrats regain their insurance paid for the fusion g.p.s. in iraq a huge i mean what are you talking about they're the ones that pay for things they do and we had little time we had a member of the f.b.i. high level meeting with christopher steele i have no idea what you're talking about seriously i mean do we know you don't know what donald trump jr said to the russians yes let's me i'd love that you don't know what i'm talking about peter everybody in the us who follows the news does they know exactly what he was about as no one should again that he wasn't in the f.b.i. people and i have to jump in here i love this debate here but we have to go to a short break after that short break we'll continue our discussion and still more washington scandals.

it's a. wonder when the. car is. in the mood to call. this a road these are the. following to me in all three men to make

a friend with her foot on from a cliff in for a moment up on the yes i will get on the one that was in the beginning to see all. of those. so. i thought that the ample. about it under the my bed but not a good idea oh no me my. upon him and upon him at the innocent missile but to know me a little must be a. lot. of slowing down a single. well i've been meaning to he doesn't. know some of the money on sunday the love of money love people the idea that something.

and how many more still going to. come here now and what can the most likely scenario. from some small town somehow moments when someone so little and they got to. go out to learn how one of the from the no other. members knew when you don't. see the. most through only ten space you. may be. left alone kelly said. claiming to know german did not see that. you speak french. most. of.

those books knew. the delta itself to. join me every day on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sport this list i'm showbusiness i'll see that. welcome back to crossfire we're all things considered peter lavelle monday we're discussing still another washington scandal. ok let's go back to phoenix i know you've got a lot to say go ahead. well look i think richard is the one that's actually an alice in wonderland because he's ignoring the facts that there are all these other

conflicts of interest as well as all these other crimes that have taken place here and yet we're sitting here concentrating on something that's already been debunked and the fact that there was no russian collusion we now know that james comey has even admitted in testimony that the president of united states was not under surveillance and he was under surveillance he was not under investigation and if i was the president united states i would do i would do basically one thing i would instruct my department of justice to immediately start five counter investigations i would look into robert mueller and his ties to raney and one and the russians i would look into james komi as leaking of information that he testified in the senate judiciary committee i would also open up an investigation into fusion g.p.s. i would also open up an investigation into tarmac gate loretta lynch and susan rice if we opened up all of these simultaneous investigations it would completely drown

out this mueller which on and that's exactly what it is it is a witch on they hate this president so much that even if they can't find anything on him they go way back on these trumped up charges against paul manna for and now you have you know michael flynn and everything else so sickly they're trying to do anything they can and the trump attorneys i don't think they're very smart because they should be instructing the president to end this and all the us to do is use all these other investigations to do it it would drown out the mueller investigation we'd be back to talking about the good things like the economy the stock market and everything else that's happening in this country ok john you want to jump in there in miami go right ahead. yeah let me just let me jump in first of all let's richard let's stop the false narrative that donald trump jr did anything improper or illegal it's opposition research in fact he did far less than your idol hillary clinton did to bernie sanders and other democrats donald trump jr took

a legal opposition research meeting with a russian lawyer who by the way how they had a immigration parole extension granted by the obama administration so i don't blame him for taking an awful meeting that happens every day in politics you know it i know it just knows it peter knows that that being said we're missing one important point about nellie or nelly or didn't just work for fusion g.p.s. fusion g.p.s. describe nelly or bruce or is wife was or was the number four man in the department of justice the number four man he had two roles unprecedented had a criminal role in a counterintelligence for all that deal j. his office was three or four doors down from the attorney general three or four doors down from rod rosenstein his wife nellie or was considered the expert on all matters russia at fusion g.p.s. if you don't think she had a hand in if not directed the compiling of this fake news garbage doe's cia you've got another thing coming this is a scandal that makes watergate palin comparison this might be the greatest

political scandal in american history the number four man at d.o.j. the number two man in f.b.i. and remicade and or mccabe's hand-picked disciple peter stroke couldn't spiralling against a political campaign then taking that jump those to a fight so a court were resting on their f.b.i. credentials to convince a judge to issue a secret warrant a foreign intelligence surveillance court warrant to surveil another political campaign for nothing other than political reasons now with regards to palm out of four if he committed financial crimes in two thousand and six he should pay but nothing was found with regards to russia collusion with papadopoulos he was he would plead guilty on a process crime nothing would trump russia collusion michael flynn a process let me lying to investigators there's a lot of debate let me just tell you what a nice it's been it's actually do they want to really advance to one and i want richard to get in their way and richard please. first as regards this dossier ok i know everybody spun up about it. michael flynn has pled

guilty to lying to the f.b.i. not because of a dossier papadopoulos has pled guilty to lying to the f.b.i. not because of a dossier a lot paul but what about a solution cited by a grand jury not because the dossier and the dossier my point i'll not even exist for a purpose of what i just give it to my lawyer in this because i'm going to give you and i don't find there is a god i have all these here this whole time what is what the fact that you're referring to please the fact is the give you four facts the russians said we want to help you the crime people said we want to help the russians did help. when i talked to him why his hundred times timeline is important to answer the c.n.a. answer peter after i gave b.c. knew this it on the line is important when did they ask when you ask me a question well the answer is the intelligence community which you may not buy and

josh and john may not accept the legitimacy of the u.s. intelligence community but most people america do and they say that the russians very much wanted to help donald trump when and hillary clinton lose and by leaking . but he said i did not do that i'm not talking about the sad thing about that and it's not what the you know and i do not wish i had been presented to back that claim up not one shred of intelligence but you know so i just have to believe them right no i don't you know trust but verify a great republican said that once ok go ahead and go prosecute by the go john had just let me let me let me just throw let me talk because you're going to hear me right. here we have is that we have the or professional talkers here john you go first in miami go ahead ok thank you thank you the intelligence community never said that what the intelligence community said was that russia meddled in our elections we knew that that's old news they never once said that russia weaponized

on behalf of donna. trump we know that hillary clinton was far more kind of russia and russia paid far more money to the clinton foundation than they've ever given donald trump so that is the bum's completely debunked to say the dosey is a relevant is ridiculous think of the legal concept fruits of the poisonous tree when i when i was active law enforcement if i proved presented junk to a judge and i lied i stood in front of that judge and said i vetted this it's valid when i knew it wasn't when i knew it was garbage and that judge gave me a warrant a defense attorney would get the entire case thrown out because if it supports industry i provided drunk to get the warrant i got the warrant under unconstitutional false pretenses which is exactly what happened with the doses so that o.c. is not irrelevant the dosey is the crux of the issue and there is nothing improper nothing illegal smoking nothing remotely wrong with opposition research whether it comes from a russian a saudi arabia of venezuelan a canadian

a texan or someone from rhode island as long as you're not exchanging money and not disclosing it there is nothing remotely language that we've got to debunk all of these ridiculous false narratives ok josh in phoenix go ahead. well i was going to say that all of the prosecutors so far all of them have ties to either hillary clinton the clinton foundation and or barack obama's administration ok you've got johnny ri you've got your weisman you've got goldstein you've got peter stories like these are you've got what's her name. berman jackson you've got the other one that also was the prosecutor against the man of four so this is a complete this is not an impartial investigation this is not an independent investigation if it was then you would have prosecutors that were from i don't know the george w. bush administration or you'd have people that were from the george h. walker bush or even if the reagan administration people are still around from there

this would have a mix mark it is not is that point an offer when they were wrong when i want to point out go ahead richard go ahead. i'm saying mohler robert muller who is the head of this was a ronald reagan appointee to a top law enforcement position he was george to a top law enforcement position he was george w. bush to a deep state that's what i worry about ok you know john one of the yes exactly one of the things i really worry about here is if you look because the way things are going men afford influence seem to have been in the obama administration didn't world he was doing what everybody else was doing at that but what i what i find worrisome and i hope richard can respond to that is a rapidly running out of time is that there is a very strong sense of bias here on the people that are doing the russian investigation nine out of the fifteen players on miller's team it's factually known they were contributors to the clinton people two democrats are democrats so but you

know people that are going forward and maybe even clinton men are for will say this is that you see these people are intensely politicized they're very biased here i mean they will be able to challenge a need. kind of prosecution and even sentencing and go back to court and say you know if i was in the poison well the atmosphere was very poisonous we need to know more about this cobol in the f.b.i. in the d.o.j. what's going on i mean did they sit around and strategize because it certainly sounds like it go ahead. peter i think they i think that you're going to get a good jump start on the republican. it's not about republican and democrat this is about a stablished and deep state and stroke use the words insurance policy well there's no ca was the insurance policy to insure hillary's when that failed muller is their insurance policy he was the contingency plan in the event i don't care who he was

appointed by the guy spent his entire life as a deep state operative working in government all right now gentlemen i have to jump in here to status i have to jump in here richard's been the odd man out thirty seconds you've got the last thirty seconds richard. all these these comments in these texts that were attributed to struck were things that the american public believes that trump was dishonest right that he was reckless that he was incompetent this was not something that was unique to peter strong as regards all and that's regard to all these terms that's what jeb bush was saying that's what ted cruz was saying all these horrible things that were being said about donald trump by struck all these republican opponents were saying the same thing that's what the american public know there are people in this process somehow or other to say that is and stirs ackbar ok i wasn't on that had he when he was late in life he was a very powerful man and he got caught gentlemen we've run out of time many thanks to my guests in washington miami and in phoenix and thanks to our viewers for

watching us here at r.t.c. the next time and remember rough stuff. when you on the screen. if somebody would have been told to spend my life two point zero two two story corps who looks old through. every night we were attacked by the arabs we will attacking them and we will extremely shocked. saying that's not possible oh meet those. in the. hosts who go to prison move or go. their own way. really much sick and

close citizens in. groups like the let me give my head that there is no need to be able to move to the. to. hamas. what's the quest for a file for people who are happy to pay the maximum in the extortion racket that the drug and insurance companies got the government to impose an unconstitutional tax called the pharmacare is that they are bought in to america's various foreign policies of raped and pillaged for a few bucks that's the foreign policy or to let pharmaceutical companies create an opiate crisis domestically you don't hear anyone questioning that i let myself be say r.c.m.p. say or any of the mainstream media outlets they all buy into it they get paid a lot of money they'll pay the stipend to the health extortionist and the obamacare folks as long as they push the line that there is still an active non ghostlike

population that's crawling around america fishing through garbage bells living on five dollars a day entering the third world and trying to game the system twenty four seven. how does it feel to be a sheriff the greatest job in the world it's as close to being a king as any job there is what business model helps to run a prison now we just do it oh my guess is nobody obeys the case and they don't no one comes in many more is cost effective that's what they want to do that's known they don't give a damn if they didn't charge on that they're actually paying us to put it back into . the louisiana incarceration rate is twice as high as the us sam bridge what secret is behind such success. no less on the. wrong. side of the example this

was. the whole. argument. the u.s. and north korea faceoff at a special session of the u.n. security council young blames washington for escalating the nuclear crisis. the u.k.'s top military officer suggests russia could try to sabotage underwater cables disrupting global communication but provides no indication of where the claim comes from also ahead.

further clashes break out between palestinians and israeli police in the west bank and jerusalem as a dispute over the city's status rages on. a very warm welcome you are watching r.t. international with mina care and good to have you with us this hour our top story the top diplomats of the u.s. and north korea have traded accusations in a tense encounter at the u.n. security council secretary of state rex tillerson appeared to backtrack on an earlier offer to start talks with pyongyang without preconditions to end the ongoing nuclear crisis artie's caleb moore pin reports from new york. well the presence of the two officials made it pretty clear that the stakes are getting higher as we watch the meeting in the u.n.

security council chamber now we heard from the u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson he emphasized that the united states did not want to go to war with north korea but that they will be increasing their pressure on the country that is intended to lead to diplomatic talks in the meantime the president's been very clear militarily we are going to be prepared should something go wrong and our military expert or a representative from north korea was able to take the floor at the meeting now the representative from north korea said that it was the united states that was to blame for the crisis in the korean peninsula and that their development of nuclear weapons was only done to deter attack against their country this is the representative of north korea speaking in the u.n. security council chamber position open nuclear example and individuals to third with the prince even up with the prince. and to run the resistance and development of from the u.s. but on the u.s. nuclear threat at the end up looking and it's

a new one it's to blame for. the years the run must be so confident now we heard from the representative of russia and he addressed the security council and emphasized that while russia does not approve of north korea's activities its testing the missiles its nuclear proliferation that saber rattling and threats against the country don't seem to be the solution and that as long as the country feels like it's under attack and like it's under threat it's not likely to disarm and give up its nuclear weapons but the most polluting the muse to washington and its allies respond to two months of silence from pyongyang by conducting un should yield military drills of an unprecedented scale next to the north korean border you know december combined with new unilateral sanctions and adding the country to the list of terrorist sponsoring nations all of these moves makes you wonder whether they even want to find peaceful methods of resolving the crisis. u.s.

secretary of state rex tillerson in his remarks accused russia and china of not doing enough to help resolve the crisis by putting pressure on north korea this is despite the fact that rex tillerson outright rejected the proposal from russia and china for a double freeze since the beginning of the crisis russia and china have called for a deescalation of tensions by the usa and south korea ending their provocative military exercises in exchange for north korea ending its missile testing and its nuclear proliferation now this proposal was outright rejected by rex tillerson who said that u.s. talks with north korea would not proceed with any preconditions there would be no preconditions he essentially ruled out the possibility of this double freeze as proposed by china and russia now blushes russia's president vladimir putin was speaking recently and spoke about the fact that the usa and russia don't seem to be working together regarding the crisis on the korean peninsula and when addressing

that he pointed out that often u.s. leaders seem to put russia on the same level as north korea and iran in their international rhetoric and that essentially the usa is coming to russia for help with the north korean crisis while not treating them with the proper respect and putting them essentially on the same level as north korea tensions are pretty clearly high as was illustrated on the floor of the security council in the proceedings that the world just watched human rights attorney eric throat can believe they found realistic that the u.s. preconditions before entering into talks with north korea i think president trump is demonstrating real ignorance about negotiating and how that works the reason you have to sit down is to avoid these kind of problems not sit preconditions the international community needs to do more to put pressure on the parties to sit down to demand that the parties sit down unconditionally. i mean you have to remember

the united states. and south korea and japan and just a few countries have never even recognized the right of north korea to exist has now has not recognized them as a nation has no diplomatic relations so consequently who you talk to how you relate to them is always a little unclear no one's holding the united states feet to the fire to unconditionally sit down until there's a resolution to this issue so that we can work toward a nonproliferation in demilitarisation of the korean peninsula. now the u.k.'s top military officer has claimed russia's navy could sabotage underwater cables disrupting communications and triggering global economic chaos with more on the accusation his party boy. warning has come from assessed or at ph he is a senior nato official and he's also the chief of british defense stuff and he says

that russian ships have been spotted perilously close to atlantic cables these are underwater very important strategic cables that cross the atlantic from europe to the u.s. and since according to peach russia has continued to develop its unconventional warfare well the internet could be the kremlin's next victim russia in addition to new ships and submarines continues to perfect unconventional capabilities and information wolf. and there's a new risk. to our way of life which is the vulnerability of the cables that crisscross the seabirds well according to says ph that kind of disruption could have catastrophic event effects and he stressed that russian ships are constantly cruising the atlantic swartz's potentially with the purpose.
