sally yates said you went rogue. isn't that accurate? >> it is not accurate. >> why would she say that? she sure didn't compliment you. i was sitting right here listening to her. she said you went rogue. >> are you asking me what she meant by that? >> yeah. what do you think about that? >> i think she was disappointed that i didn't coordinate the flynn interview with her in advance and i understood her concern about that. i think she understood my explanation afterwards why i used my authority to do it without coordinating. >> but you don't like attention? >> i stand by my earlier answer. i love attention from my grandchildren, children and wife. >> can we agree that the fbi is premier law enforcement agency in all of human history? >> i think so. at risk of offending dea, i think so. >> mr. comey, if you had chosen a different career, say, a driving instructor, and you never pursued a career at the fbi, don't you think the fbi would be better off? >> i didn't pursue a career at the fbi. i was very happily teaching at columbia when i was

and sally yates having lunch with a cohort of eric holder. that? >> oh, i think it does thicken, lou. we had already picked up tidbits of information from covington that there were other people on the flynn file that we did not know had participated in the case in any way at all, and that includes lanny breuer who was holder's assistant attorney general for the criminal division of the department of justice and michael chertoff who had had been head of homeland security and other people billing on the file. and they have not provided us those communications even though they pertain to the flynn case, and we should have everything from that. and it was the next day after sally yates had lunch with gary grindler that she went to the white house to make sure that she got general flynn fired from being national security adviser. i mean, that was one of their primary goals we know from the notes of one of the agents, general counsel at the fbi who said that. so -- lou: are we going to find out, are we going to find out -- well, are we going to fin

hopeful there could be some progress because certainly if you listen to, for example, last week, sally yatesnother person who signed two false fia say warrants, she was a big political operative at the big national convention of the dnc. and what significance of the dnc? that's the same organization that funded and helped put together this terrible dossier, which was part of the serious civil rights abuses which i had to endure. >> the democratic national committee and for people who don't know, when you sign off on these wiretaps, i'm told by my inside sources, you'd normally stay far far away from a political competitor, you just don't do it. if you feel you must, for some overriding reason, that would have to go all the way to the top, to the president of the united states because it's such a sensitive matter they would have to examine that then you would want to look at the wiretap if you sign off on it and make crystal clear that all the processes have been followed. you would want to do that personally not just sign it as they say they kind of did not people at the top or implying they

he in contrast turned the fbi leadership turned into what sally yates agreed with, acting attorney generalion, it was a rogue fbi, not the main line of lawyerses and investigators and so forth but peter strzok was part of this terrible cabal that terribly injured the reputation of the fbi. men and women of the fbi feel very strongly. your sources are exactly right. he stands alone as a rogue person who came to power but he used his power for political reasons and that is the unforgivable sin for an fbi agent. elizabeth: all right. ken starr, so great to have you on. come back soon. okay. >> thanks, liz. i sure will. elizabeth: sure. still ahead, trump 2020 director of communications tim murtagh on growing pushback against democrat shutdown rules. a lot of people say they are radical and restrictive. what is going on? a federal judge, we reported last night a federal judge struck down governor tom wolf's practices. he threatened businesses. this is unconstitutional, that is what the judge said. president trump: americans, on other side shutdowns you're living through it right now. there are

and i'm curious based on this testimony last week by sally yates, peter strzok and others and the topic of russian interference comes up and now chinese interference, what are your thoughts on this research that you've done for this book and what we might expect in this coming election because you write a lot about the first one. >> more of the same. one of the things about bullies is that unless they arestopped , they get more and more aggressive and more and more demanding and there is a perfect illustration of that in this story. and it's again, as you said earlier if you put this in a novel people would say come on, it's too much but july 24, 2019 is the day that robert mueller testifies before the 2 house committees and he does a bad job . let's be honest. he is not a cleareffective witness . he didn't want to be there. he was not an impressive performer . it was kind of the last gasp of the mueller investigation and something trump and his supporters rejoiced in. the next morning, july 25 donald trump has a long phone call with president zelensky he zelensky and that's where the p

comey and sally yates submitted the first two false highly inaccurate fisa awards to the foreign intelligence surveillance court in washington. and unfortunately, not only were they not talking to me, they were instead dealing with a dnc funded consultant who is doing this major smear campaign against then candidate trump and his supporters such as me. and leaking like crazy to the media. i mean there is so much wrongdoing encapsulated in thei their. it is encouraging that some initial steps have been taken in terms of reestablishing the rule of law. but unfortunately, there is just so much more that needs to be uncovered. i hope this book provides initial impotence in terms of some of the major problems. i just wanted the american people to know what the full truth is. an underlying this completely incredible attack. >> the book is called abuse and power. the notion the attorney general wanted to speak with you during this investigation, 70 tried to get the fbi to talk and clear things up as they were targeting you, reminds me a little bit when the government operations against me, were conf

team, they include former national security advisor, susan rice, former deputy attorney general, sally yatese va secretary during the obama administration, new mexico governor michelle grisham and pete buttigieg, planning on being on the transition team. is this an indication that a biden presidency would be a carbon copy of the obama presidency? >> well, you look at all the names that you just read off and it should be pretty scary to the americans ayou cross the country to -- across the country to see the biden transition team is made up of the people who pretty much failed our country for the eight years of the obama administration, whether it was susan rice lying to the american people about the benghazi attack, whether it was the va director that literally allowed va vets to be dying on the waiting list trying to get help for their suicidal concerns. across the board, all of these individuals that they're bringing on are the failed retreads of the who's who of the obama administration and that's why trump was elected in 2016. we don't need to bring it back in 2020. jillian: let me ask y

although mister rosenstein and sally yates have been called in front of congress, they have basicallyhe question and there's been very little or no accountability whatsoever. one small charge has been levied by the durham investigation, but there is just so much clear evidence of wrongdoing that there really needs to be much bigger steps to get to the bottom of this to finally hold people accountable and also just restoring our legal system and creating a more just society because it really is completely unconscionable at this stage. >> former cia director john brennan was interviewed by jerome durham in late august from brenham's spokesman, he was informed by mister durham that he is not a subject or the target of a criminal investigation and that he is only witness to events the interview was conducted at cia headquarters and lasted eight hours. what you make of that? >> i have to laugh at that because the one person that has been charged, told my lawyers that i was just a witness as well. and unfortunately, little did we know, and we're still finding out the details about it, but t

it's when you think of the whistleblower i think of alex vindman or sally yates. i have to say part of this is self-serving. i think there are people in the administration who think there is a potential to get trump reelected and, frankly, looking to save their own hide. i think it's worth mentioning this is something that comes on the heels of the election, this is something also saying he was a recipient of negative action. which, look, he has a right to counter that. it's also important to understand, you know, i don't know, i think of alex vindman, i think what he didn't have. how he sacrificed his career. and this ain't it. i want to point that out, we have to set a bar here. that as we get close to the election, there may very well be more people that will come out and say things, where were they two years ago? a year ago? frankly, it's a little self-serving for me. >> i want to talk about the threat of the russia investigation. you talked about how there is russia interference. i asked as speaker pelosi last weekend specifically on how the intelligence comm

going, apparently particularly through comey's meeting with biden and obama and susan rice and sally yatesary 5th and apparently for a few days before either by phone or some kind of other meeting that i think is reflected in strzok's notes that were given to us a few weeks ago indicating that obama said he wanted the right people put on it and the investigation to continue. biden mentioned the logan act. i think there was a meeting before the 5th or at least a conversation before the 5th that included that information. elizabeth: you know, are you going to take this to the supreme court? >> if we have to. i'm hoping judge sullivan gets it right and salvages what's left of his reputation. because he's, he was the hero of my book "license to lie "only to be a major disappointment when a different context involving a republican that was and a republican attorney general. stevens, of course, was asked to be dismissed by eric holder, but that wasn't what happened in this case. elizabeth: the fbi text messages talk about how the flynn probe was based on, quote, conspiracy theories, was a nightm

a lorn so did sally yates.any direct empirical evidence that the trump campaign would spying with the russian meddling with the election. here's what's going on right now, remember how house intelligence democrat chair adam schiff that thef time was criticized for going on cnn, msnbc and other networks during the trump russia probe early in 2017 and for the next two years to say that trump was w a russin asset and colluding with russia at a time when fbi did not close the case, they had no conclusive evidence. newly released fbi e-mails by judicial watch shows the nsa was also offering to help adam schiff to secretly read trump russia documents before the probe was concluded. this after we showed you yesterday fbi e-mails released by judicial watch revealed that they help democrats reach documents two. look who is here, he is fired up and ready to go. jim jordan house judiciary ranking republican. i want to ask you this, whether you like him or agree with him, should politicians read secret probe documents befo

sally yates said it wasn't me, we'll find out tomorrow did jim comey take any responsibility?e here is an unprecedented attempt by the fbi to interfere in a presidential election and now nobody wants to talk about it, nobody wants to taken responsibility for it, there needs to be responsibility taken, heads need to roll and there needs to be top to bottom reform at the fbi. >> tucker: the pictures we are seeing, we think show the president arriving at the debate hall in cleveland. why has no one been punished for this? i've known people who were sentenced to long prison terms for lying about things that didn't matter at all. where is this famous investigation from the u.s. attorney that's going to make everything right and bring justice to all of this? have we been lied to again? >> hopefully it's coming soon because i can tell you, we've been told on the senate committee over and over, don't get ahead of the durham report. don't step on the toes of the durham report. it better, and it better hold some people accountable. what we have here is falsification of evidence. let's g

. >> you got rosenstein, now sally yates saying if they knew then what they knew now they wouldn't have signed a warrant application which means they are dumping it all on comey, and eventually i'm going to call comey in and ask him how could you keep signing warrant applications against carter page in april and june of 2017 when your agency knew in january and march of 2017 the dossier was a bunch of garbage. how could you keep doing that? maria: and i am back with congressman jim jordan this morning, congressman, it's september 20, 2020. we have been waiting for some kind of a resolution of what took place in 2016 for a long time now. we'll hear from james comey but this effort to take down donald trump just keeps going. >> yeah, no look. when mr. comey comes in i'd want to ask him about the january 5, 2017 meeting because remember what happened here. they spied on the trump campaign , they tried to stop president trump from winning the election. he won, and then priority number one becomes how do we cover up what we did? and they had to focus on getting rid of michael flynn and that

loretta lynch made indications to that, so did sally yates.rect evidence that the trump campaign conspired with the russians to meddle with the election. here's what's going on right now. remember how house intelligence democrat chair adam schiff at that time was criticized for repeatedly going on cnn, msnbc and other networks during the trump-russia probe early in 2017 and for the next two years to say that trump was a russian asset, was colluding with russia at a time when the fbi didn't close the case. they had no conclusive evidence of that. newly-released e-mails received by judicial watch shows the nsa was also offering to help adam schiff secretly read documents before the probe was concluded. fbi mails released by judicial watch revealed that the fbi helped democrat schiff read documents too. look who's here, he's fired up and ready to go, ohio congressman jim jordan. congressman, whether you like trump or not or agree with him or not, should politicians read secret probe documents before a case is closed, before the probe is closed in

rosenstein and sally yates said to this committee who signed the warrant application. if i knew then what i know now i would not have signed the application. >> mr. chairman, may we have copies of that document, please? >> yes, we'll submit it to everybody. >> thank you very much, mr. chairman. we are here again today as part of the chairman's examination of cross fire hurricane. the fbi's russia investigation. the president has long claimed the investigation of his campaign was a witch hunt and a hoax. contrary to the president's claim of a witch hunt the department of justice inspector general michael horowitz confirmed in a detailed report that the fbi was justified when it opened the investigation into ties between the trump campaign and russia. the fbi learned in july 2016 that the trump campaign appeared to have advance knowledge of russia's plan to release, quote, thousands of e-mails end quote to harm hillary clinton and help trump. the fbi learned this one week after wikileaks published 20,000 e-mails that russia had stolen from the democratic national committ

. >> boss, he just fired sally yates. >> so, jeff, that scene is so evocative of other moments wherethat a new reality is upon them. whether it's guys in detroit in the early 1980s, don't understand that their world is about to change radically, or in other countries like surviving autocracy says one of the mistakes we make in news is we're trying to apply the old news of america to a new reality of an autocratic leader. i'd love for you to talk about it, but that looked like james comey and everybody else in that room trying to apply the old rules of madisonian democracy to a very new harsh reality. >> everybody respected the rule of law. everybody respected those things that made america and make america the free country that it is. until now. and it's been painfully obvious from before 2016, but certainly in the four years previous. and look at what happened yesterday. that's what autoc kautocrats do. what i find worse than trump is the complicity of those in congress, in the senate, and i see a republican party that is -- that is no longer the republican party that my dad belonge

and when sally yates went down to the white house and met with don mcgahn and said, look, your national security adviser is at risk of being blackmailed, that was the crisis. are you not explaining a similar dynamic and risk for donald trump? >> i am. but i would tell you, for general flynn, it was even greater than that. of course, when he lied, if he lied, he's saying he didn't, which strains creduality based on the fact he's pled guilty to lying to two different judges. when he did that, absolutely that gives the russians leverage over him and furthermore when he goes and tells the vice president that it didn't occur and vice president pence goes on sunday talk show and parrotts that, it creates problems. for general flynn, there's a deeper issue here with that. we were trying to get to the heart of the nauture of the relationship between the incoming and current administration was and the government of russia. and underlying our concern in that was whether or not flynn had not told us the truth about this conversation because somebody else in the white house, up to and including pot

committee where jim comey will test testify next week will he had a same questions asked rod rosenstein sally yatesw to contain false information if you knew then what you know now jim comey what of you authorized applications i assumed the answer to that question will be no. and then there will be i would imagine also a much more questioning about what he knew and when he knew it with regard to the --, you know, the underlying report that was, you know, ultimately understood by fbi to have contained false information and misleading information they relied on in order to apply for the fisa warrants. and, you know, there will be pointed questions i imagine from lindsey graham and others about what the level of -- jim comey's knowledge was, duringuring the at the time, and appropriate questions to ask with, effort toward accountability. >> yeah robert great to have you this morning mob thank you so much we'll be right back. ahhhh, it's a tiny dancer. they left a ton of stuff up here. welp, enjoy your house. nope. no thank you. geico could help you save on homeowners and renters insurance. and now you

we've seen sally yates before testify. she's very slippery. they're very good at dodging.uestions. they deflect. it's always somebody else's problem, always some other other issue. a public hearing can be useful for shining a light, helping make some of those facts public but a legislative hearing lacks the ability to indict someone, to bring criminal proceedings, to have actual legal consequences attached to their misconduct. that's what needs to happen. i expect -- and unfortunately, comey's testimony today is going to be via zoom or distance, which makes it even worse because i expect him to dodge every question. doesn't mean that we're not going to press and i'm certainly going to press but it's no substitute for a grand jury and an indictment holding people accountable for breaking the law. that's what needs to happen. maria: who do you think the mastermind of this all was? was it hillary clinton or somebody else? >> from what i've seen, john brennan was right at the middle of all a of this. john brennan running the intelligence agency seems to be pulling an awful lot

we have had sally yates. in she said jim comey went rogue.like those that had provided misleading information should face consequences, possibly jail time. and those are important steps. but, here's the thing. michael flynn got caught in this web, what we do know is that somebody cooked up a plot. somebody said carry it out. somebody did the dirty work and michael flynn is paying the price. donald trump is paying the price. >> new book out "the mind of the conservative woman" what do you want people to take from this. >> what i want people to understand is the media does treat conservative women differently. and most women in this country you just heard in jed's segment, they were not politically affiliated. they are very much aware. they are engaged. they vote for their future generations for their children. what we do know is that most women come down in the center or center right. and they know that the media will you if you are pro-life, pro-family, pro-business. pro-military. so my book is a way for women to defend themselves, to underst

sally yates. new mexico governor michelle grisham. director. bob mcdonald, the one who was former head of va was supposed to fix the va but never did. bernie is whispering but a lot of obama as well. will: go back to what bernie said about the election. no doubt this election will be unprecedented in terms how votes are counted and come back, this idea we're headed for chaos is self-fulfilling prophecy. almost like a lustfulness for it. if chaos on the streets and chaos in the election process, you have to ask what is the end goal? if chaos is wanted, what is built up from chaos, what emerges? that is under this. we should ask ourself what is trying to be built amidst chaos. jedediah: also really scary because some of these cities, they can't handle anymore chaos. look at the footage, we can't handle getting worse. that is terrifying reality as well. most people are hoping for an election result that gets solved really quickly to minimize the amount of chaos. it is getting scary out there. turning to headlines. fox news alert. breakin

so far, the city of pensacola says sally caused more than $12 million in damage. back in mobile, pastor yatesstimates it will cost about $300,000 to fix that steeple and te roof. he says he's just happy the damage wasn't any worse. >> we were emotional. very emotional at first. but then we were thankful that there was no life lost. >> that's just a building. >> that's just a building. >> pastor yates told me he does plan to hold sunday services inside the building with masks and social distancing. he says it's a way to bring hope to his congregation during these times. >> thank you, manny. that's a stunning picture. wow. all in all, those are really stunning pictures what happened down there. everything tossed around and that steeple, the most symbolic of all. >> it's not the morning after where you know what happened. it takes a couple of days. pictures start coming in and you see damage like that. >> that's called having faith, though. they'll still have service on sunday and still going to go and worship. i saw interviews this week and somebody said, listen, mother nature always bats last

yates is eighth. today they will raise to poitiers over a fairly flat route. i like the way you said that, sadly. cheers, sallyo follow and be in force "for the forseeable future". social gatherings of more than six people will be banned from one day, with some exemptions. local lockdowns are already in force in areas across the uk, including bolton, which has seen a recent spike. bolton has the highest number of infections in the country. people cannot meet with those outside their own household in any setting. restaurants, cafes, bars and pubs have been restricted to takeaway only and will have to close at ten pm. our correspondentjohn maguire has spent the day in bolton. the inflation level here in bolton has increased over the past two weeks from the low 20s, something like 15 - weeks from the low 20s, something like 15 — 18 per 100,000 to now, we find, more than 120 cases, per 100,000. that is what has caused the change in the restrictions. primarily, the difference it will make is to the hospitality industry, so no longer will pubs, cafe is a restau ra nt so no longer will pubs, cafe is a restaurant to b
