a press release that claims that the clinton foundation got $32 million from the crown prince of bahrainur years before hillary clinton was secretary of state and had nothing to do with her decision on whether to see him on a particular day or not. >> yeah. >> but -- but, you see politico and other publications publish that, then they have to go back and correct it. >> jonathan allen wrote that piece about the clinton rules, which means you hear something negative, you go ahead and accept it. you pursue it. when there's nothing to it, you take it back, but it's then out there. has the response of the -- >> i think jonathan's done a great job, but he didn't come up with that term. that's what gene lions named them years ago. >> you had the chance to get unprecedented access to bill clinton to talk to him for this book "man of the world." has his response to that been, what, is it resentment of the press? the source of their secretive nature? have they -- >> wait, joy. first of all, the idea of their secretive nature i think is wrong. they've disclosed 30 years of taxes, 40 years of taxes.

i expect gulf state sales of military jets to bahrain and qatar will be approved by this administration as early as this month. we're about to open the spigot of cash iran can then use to build up its ballistic missiles, it's military, so we need to make sure that israel understands that we are there to support her. because it makes no sense, mr. speaker that we should be concentrating on stopping iran, not assisting the regime to further carry out its nefarious activities and certainly not helping to build up its conventional nuclear arms race in the region. not to mention that by doing this, we are undermining the distinct advantage that israel has militarily over its neighbors. and even though israel and our other partners in the region may have better relations now than ever before, and that is true, and that is wonderful, because they have in iran a mutual enemy, that's why. they understand it is their greatest threat and history tells that it is better to be safe than sorry. so that is another important reason we need to conclude this m.o.u. with the jewish state and ensure its qu

another case was of james hissel burger, he was a contractor, translator at a naval base in bahrain, he pled guilty to misdemeanor for mishandling documents in 2014, he was sentenced to time served after two months in a d.c. jail. how are those cases different than what happened with the former secretary of state? >> all the cases that were prosecuting -- i definitely know nishimura for sure. i went through 40 years of cases so in june and july i had them in my head. i don't remember the second one. i'm highly confident all the cases that were prosecuted, including the misdemeanors, involved obstruction of justice, vast amounts of material handled in such a way it was clear they intentionally mishandled. nishimura is a great example. huge amount of stuff he tried to destroy once the investigation began so there were aggravating factors that led the department of justice to bring those cases. >> did you look at any aspects of obstruction of justice in your investigation with any of the players in this episode? >> sure. yes. >> you found none? on march second the "new york times" said
