they produced the zip codes for the students because i think that will be a good way for us as oversight committee to see which neighborhoods are being served and which need a little more outreach. there is questions about financial aid and things that fall into the categories and those sort of things. i'm looking to blazing new paths forward. >> supervisor stefani: i wanted to thank you for your service and passion on this and reaching out through the e-mail. i didn't have a chance to e-mail you back, but i received it and it's so important that people reach out through e-mail about ever the committee meetings, but i commend you on your passion and thank you for your service. >> thank you, i'd love to have a cup of coffee some day. >> if we have questions we'll call you back up. any members of the public wish to comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. >> supervisor yee: i'll make a positive recommendation to appoint conny ford to city college financial assistance fund oversight committee clerk of the board. >> supervisor safai: great. without objection, that item is moved forward. congrat

joining us, congressman jim jordan, serves as monopoly -- a member of house judiciary and oversight committee. great to have you with us. >> great to be with you. lou: start with mccabe, the spin launched he, on his own behalf, attacks the president, and taking on a comey-like posture. ignoring fact that office of professional responsibility recommended his firing. >> the fbi itself re recommended that mccabe be fire. comey has been fired, and mccabe. and former chief of staff left the fbi. and demoted. peter strzok, has been demoted and reassigned. lisa page also demoteed and reassigned. that is the problem that is why we've said for so long, you have to have a second special counsel, mccabe was leaking information like comey and clapper, that is why it was recommended that he be terminated. lou: professor turley, one of leading expert on contusional law saying he -- constitutional law saying he believes that james comey has a very serious problem before him now the because of the statements of mccabe he, flamed and said that fire director knew about his leaking. if it can be so constructed

committee. ben, thanks for joining us. >> nice to join you. it's certainly been a day of surprises. >> your committee as oversight over the department of the secretary of state. were you given a heads-up on this by the white house? >> none whatsoever. we heard no advance notice whatsoever. i understand no one on our committee was informed of this and we read about it through a tweet from the president. >> what did you think of the president's decision to fire tillerson? >> it's very concerning. it looks like the president doesn't want anyone in the room that disagrees with him, doesn't want to hear independent advice, doesn't want to get objective accounts from the state department. it's very concerning. we have major issues concerning north korea negotiations, the iran nuclear agreement, and now we have a secretary of state who voiced his recommendations based upon the experts in the state department being canned because he disagreed with the president. >> he apparently disagreed with the president on several sensitive issues. the president himself earlier today said he disagreed with tillerson on the iran nuclear deal which, as you know the presid

committee. andagency has provided us unprecedented access -- provided us an unprecedented access to its product as we have worked through the past 14 months through a difficult investigation, distinctly different from the traditional oversight role of the committee. and i would ask you, as long as the investigation continues, that it is important on your rent that you distinguish the request for the investigative from the ongoing oversight and real-time oversight of the committee, because it will require us to see products that we wouldn't historically ask for and if we did, we would probably be refused. but it is essential for this committee to do a thorough and complete review of what has happened to our election system, what has happened from a shindpoint of phi operations. i'm not tellingg you anything are not aware of in your current role. our ability to understand that not only to enhance our defensive capabilities, but to ofm a strategic outline options that we have, both defensive and offense of, is absolutely important. tremendous amount of emphasis on our ability to get this right, and in large mother measure- and in large that's because of the access the nsa has given us and under your leadership that will contin

committee. the agency has provided us an unprecedented access to its products as we've worked for the last 14 months through a very difficult investigation which is distinctly different from the oversight role -- traditional over sight role of the committee and i would ask you, as long as that investigation continues that it is important on your end that you distinguish the requests for the investigative portion from the oversight -- ongoing oversight of the committee because it will require us to see products that we wouldn't historically ask for and if we did, we would probably be refused. but it is essential for this committee to do a thorough and complete review of what has happened to our election system, what has happened from a standpoint of fishing operations, and i'm not telling you anything that you don't know given your current role that has been exploited that will only get worse in the future. our ability to understand that and to not only enhance our defensive capabilities, but to begin, as the vice chairman said, to form a strategic outline of options that we have both defensive and offensive is absolutely important. so we put a tremendous amount of emphasis on getting t

13 congres congressmen as ty hillary clinton's investigation ended and the trump-russia probe began. joining us tonight, congressman jim jordan, a member of the oversight committee and also a member of the influential house freedom caucus. good to have you with us, congressman. >> good to see you. lou: it's great to see you. let's start with jeff sessions. >> yeah. lou: you called for his resignation. he issues a statement in response to the president's criticism. your reaction to both. >> everybody single day becomes more and more obvious we need a second special counsel. that's why we called for it again today. it's obviously i don't like special counsels but you have to have one to get -- jeff sessions doesn't know where his recusal starts and stops. robert mueller is inherently compromised i think with his background with the fbi, looking into all of this. so you have to name a second special counsel. what i would suggest is pick someone from outside the swamp, a retired judge from oklahoma, iowa, somewhere, have them come in and do an investigation the way it should be done. and when that happens there's a much better chance that whatever conclusions he or

all, your job. >> and that's, thank you, i'm thankful you used those terms because one of the things that i believe we as an oversight committee, but also as a congress, one of our challenges is to have the monday morning quarterbacking going on within the media at halftime and in other words, comparing a cbo score to what we proposed and the back and forth of that. we're not at the end-game yet. so, the question is, how do we as the-- you as the cbo, i guess, maybe review your game films, if you will, or your mission in such a way that when what you say is misinterpreted or taken to an nth degree as opposed to the reality of the uncertainty, in other words, it's gray, not black and white, how then do you convince the-- those, the american public and the congress that, hey, we got this right, but we didn't get that right and we're going to move forward and, again, in the military not-- not let that happen to us twice. i see i'm out of time, but, if you want to reply to that in five seconds. >> well, i think you said it well, and i think cbo tries to do that, to say, when they didn't get something right and how they're revising

oversight committee, jason chaffetz joins us live. appreciate it. a second special counsel. >> atty. gen. sessions has recused himself out of doing the job he was hired to do. asg as you have an attorney general who is and functional you will probably need a second special counsel but beware, special counsel's are going in directions, look how the first is going and you want to do a second one? there needs to be a lot of caution but it is time for atty. gen. sessions to leave. heather: one of the concerns was not being able to question some of the witnesses, people who needed to be questioned. >> michael horowitz, i have a lot of confidence, trey gowdy expressed confidence in him, they have limited jurisdiction on people who left the department to work in other department and agencies. we 20 james comey. >> some of the other people, sidney blumenthal who don't work for the government. the inspector general have a hard time with compelling witnesses and gathering the information they need. there are 2 dozen people they would need to look at. heather: people who don't understand the ins and outs, another investigation, people are not paying attention. >> congres

as to why hillary clinton's investigation ended and the trump russian probe began. joining us congressman jim jordan the member of the judiciary and oversight committee and the member of the house freedom caucus and co-founder of that caucus good. to have you with us. >> you too,. good to see you. >> lou dobbs: it is great to see you. let's start with jeff sessions you've called for his resignation. he issues a statement in response to the president criticism, your reaction to both? >> every, single day becomes more obvious we need a second special council. that's why we called for it a long time ago and why we call for it again today. it is obvious-- i don't like special councils, but you have to have one. jeff sessions doesn't know where his recusal stops and starts. robert muller, he's inherently compromised, i think with his background with the fbi looking into all of this, so you have to name a second special council. what i would suggest, kick someone from outside of the swamp. take some retired federal judge from oklahoma, iowa, somewhere. have them come in and do an investigation, the way it should be done. i think when that happens, there's a much better c

i'm thankful that you use those terms because one of the things that we, i believe, as an oversight committee but also as a congress, one of our challenges is to have the monday morning quarterbacking going on within the media at halftime and in other words comparing the cbo score to what we suppose and all the back of that we are not at the in game yet. the question is how do we, as you as the cbo, i guess, maybe review your game films, if you will or your mission, in such a way that when what you say is misinterpreted or taken to an end degree as opposed to the reality of the uncertainty, otherwise it is gray, not black and white -- how then do you convince the american public and the american congress that we got this right and we didn't get that right and we won't move forward and again in military not let that happen and i say amount of time but if you want to apply to that, you got my second. >> i thank you said it well and i think cbo tries to do that to say when they didn't get something right and how they are revising their next estimate in light of that. >> thank you. are you back.

oversight committee as well as the judiciary committee. he is also now running for the governor of florida. congressman desantis, thanks so much for joining us hey, jason, good to see you. >> jason: the governor signed a bill. would you, if you were elected governor, would you have signed that bill? >> i think i would have approached it a little bit different. i think certainly the school security i think is long overdue. the money for mental health and being able to identify these individuals who are dangerous so that they are not able to possess weapons. i think all of those are good. i think when you start getting into some of the blanket restrictions on people's second amendment rights, i think that is constitutionally vulnerable. i think those lawsuits are probably going to succeed. i mean, think about it. have you enumerated right in the bill of rights. there is really no precedent to just do a blanket ban on certain adults. i mean, we wouldn't say that if you are 18 to 20 you don't have a fourth easement right and police could search your house without a warrant. we wouldn't say that they could seize your property without just if the

as secretary of state, he's smart, tough, and works his tail off. hats off to potus for making an excellent choice. joining us now, member of the house judiciary committee and house oversight committee. we know what you said in the tweet, you like mike pompeo. when you first heard the news this morning that tillerson was out, what went through your mind? >> it had been rumored for a number of months that he was not going to last that long. over the last month and a half, it kind of quieted down. at the end of the day, a president doesn't need to have great rapport with a hud secretary or interior secretary. when the you're talking about the secretary of state, it's important that other nations realize that that individual speaks for the president. i think rex is a great american. i think he worked hard and did some good things, but there wasn't the rapport with the president. mike is obviously very well qualified. i think the cia is actually good preparation because he really understands the hot spot thes even better now. but he has a very good rapport with the president. when mike is over in, say, the koreas or over dealing with russia or the middle east, i think people a

congressman jason chaffetz served as the chairman of the oversight and government reform committee. he joins us. so, do you. >> good morning. pete: have you called and some others have called for the need for a second special counsel to look into fisa abuse. the attorney general is now saying the inspector general will be looking into it. is this a good development and is it sufficient? >> well, it means that they are following the facts and that the inspectors general they don't just go on fishing trips. he is completing an investigation, nearly a year long. what this indicates to me is he has actually got some real evidence out there. and he is warning a second investigation. that should be coupled with a special prosecutor. because there are a number of people that have left the employment of the government and michael who are whittle as good and talented as he and his staff are they don't have the jurisdiction to go and talk to people like mr. mccabe for instance who has left. if you couple a special prosecutor. then they have the investigative tools in place to go interview those people an

oversight that has helped us to get to the point where we are today. last year as senator portman pointed out i chaired a commerce committee hearing on his bill where we heard testimony from experts on both sides of the issue. we listened carefully to what our witnesses had to say, and after the hearing we worked together to make some targeted change to the legislation. and the bill that ultimately advanced from our committee enjoyed, as senator portman pointed out, solid support from the internet industry. it passed the senate commerce committee unanimously. the bill is strongly supported by members of both parties. we racked up lots of bipartisan support, 68 out of 100 senators now cosponsors of this bill. the bill is supported by the white house, and so we know that as soon as it leaves the senate it will land on the president's desk where it will be signed into law. supported by law enforcement organizations, organizations that fight sex trafficking and by faith-based organizations. at our commerce committee hearing, mr. president, we also heard some powerful, powerful testimony from yvonne am bring to a -- yvonne ambrose whose daughter was sex tr
