stuff that was seen around it and the preside won, he beat mitt romney and he moved into the white house. i think alanld agree, i would contend that numerous administrations have seen foreign countries try to impose their will on our elections. obviously, this is a big concern. an open and free internet is another conversation. the first amendment is another conversation. but i do campaigns and elections for a living and also public policy and lobbying. and i talked to members of the congress and the senate and the house. and this is a problem that we have been seeing for years. what you believe on the internet, what's landing in your in box, what you're seeing, there's some responsibility on the voters as well as the government. i'm not sure i have to -- i'm not sure how you stop it. i'm not sure how you stop communist china, north korea. russia. people who are not our friends. i can't lay it all on the president's doorstep. and say, you know what are you doing or what not -- what are you not doing. there is a responsibility here to the public and a responsibility to the election commissions in every

on an inquiry which continues to divide washington and the country alan fischer al-jazeera washington let's hear now from a serious white house correspondent kimberly how could his life for us in washington so kimberly the president has been tweeting in the early morning there in washington making these accusations against the leadership of the f.b.i. what are we to make of that. well i think what we're to make of it is that essentially the president is doubling down on his accusations against the department of justice and the f.b.i. currently run by his political appointees so it really is remarkable that the president is going up in direct defiance against those that he put in place to run those intelligence and justice agencies that's the first thing of note but the second thing that's really significant in all of this is that essentially the president is really running a risk that this could backfire in terms of the level of expectation that is now out there it may not have the explosive impact of the president is hoping for when ultimately this is released you heard and alan fisher's report there the speaker of the

him about that but we absolutely wish him well did a very good job while he was at the white house let's go live as alan fischer who's in washington hi there allison just how controversial is trump's decision to defend this former aide. well it's not playing oh well for him but then if it sent a pattern from donald trump we know that when michael flynn his national security advisor resigned in the weeks afterwards donald trump was still calling him a very good man and didn't need to resign he stood by roy moore who you remember was running in the alabama senate race he was accused of having inappropriate relations with young women particularly a couple who were under age again donald trump didn't with joy support for roy moore and college people to vote for him if you think even farther back there were incidents where two senior people at fox news were fired because of sexual harassment he gave him their support so this is donald trump sticking by people that he thinks are loyal to him the big difficulty with his statement is that many people said there was no words of comfort for his victims that you r

white house. in washington hi there alan so just how controversial then is trump's the feds this former aide well it certainly fits in with the pattern of donald trump standing up for people who believe have been loyal to him you'll remember michael flynn who resigned as national security advisor well he went on to say that he was a good man should have been forced out of his job some people would even suggest he went as far as trying to get the f.b.i. to drop an investigation into him then roy moore the alabama senate race remember that he was accused of assaulting a young women some of them under the age of consent and yet donald trump did not condemn not at all in fact he said roy moore says he's innocent and we've got to believe that. he's standing beside rob porter the the issue there of course is that there was no wads of concern for people who claimed that he had abused them both physically and verbally and it really goes against the time here in america when the me too movement is growing in power and influence and in strength with women finding their voice this was an odd position for do

wrote on an inquiry which continues to divide washington and the country alan fischer al-jazeera washington let's face it as white house correspondent kimberly how could he joins us now live from washington so the president's been tweeting this morning accusing the leadership of the f.b.i. of being biased against him can believe what are we to make of that well i think what we're to make of it is that this is a highly politicized process that is existing right now in washington you heard there in allan's report and you read the tweets at the start of the show the president very much trying to implicate top leadership at the f.b.i. and the justice department of having politicized the sacred investigative process in favor of democrats essentially what he's saying there is that he believes senior law enforcement has abused surveillance laws to essentially eavesdrop on members of his presidential campaign by the side from the political fallout from all of this what are the civil liberties implications here. right well what you heard there from the speaker paul ryan when he was speaking in dallas report there touched

the white house put out a published statement, and we stay in almost daily contact with not just the president, but his key advisers, about what works and does not work. alan: he said he needs the majority in the house to get something on there. a bill like senator grassley's, which also has the president's support, has been rejected by the freedom caucus. there's more support maybe for years, but that would probably lose a lot of democratic support. how does the speaker navigate what is turning into such a tight window to get something through? rep. goodlatte: his instructions to me is get the bill done. he, the leader, and the whip are all in to get that done. we will work very hard. we expect the senate to do the same thing. at some point, this week or later, we want the senate to produce a bill. we hope it is a good bill. this is an issue that once the house and the senate has passed legislation, to sit down and it isut the differences clear at the end of the day that everyone will give they want. but it is important that we address this issue and we have to do it all from the standpoint of making sure we address the daca issue and address the issues r

protect the russia probe from what many believe is a white house effort to derail the justice process kimberly held at al-jazeera washington. well alan collins from the university of michigan he says the focus will now shift to deputy attorney general rod rosenstein because of his involvement in securing the warrants that we use to monitor a trump campaign aide brought rosenstein is you know his. grip on the administration on the investigation you know is certainly hurt by this because he's an appointee and in theory president from could get rid of him at any time and you know the memos put out and it shows that when he had to extend the plans that weren't going to turn a page of kind of undermines that rationale in so you know i don't think that the president trump is going after robert muller directly but rather rosenstein is the boss. of robert muller and so i think he's probably most vulnerable in that if president from tried to install somebody do a head of the investigation so the more favorable for him that that could eventually put them all in the crosshairs and so i think the directly rosenstein who would be most because he

alan. these reports as far as i'm aware have not yet been confirmed by the white house but this isn't the first time we've heard about access to classified material is it. you know exactly right and the white house won't confirm this their policy is that they don't talk about who has and who does not have security clearance this all goes back to the reporter incident was just a few weeks ago now if you remember he was a staff secretary which meant he worked very closely with donald trump essentially so everything that went across his desk and it was revealed after allegations of spouse still abuse that he only had interim security clearance that cause a huge for rory and that forced john kelly the chief of staff to say right we're reviewing all the security clearances and anyone who still has interim security clearance wall lose that clearance by a certain date no it appears that that has happened and a number of people have lost their clearances we found out also that in november forty seven people who worked closely with donald trump didn't have the the fool security clearance there were stil
