james comey has been fired. peter, what do we know? >> reporter: let's be very clear about what is going on here now, brian. over the course of the last hour we have learned president trump, his own campaign associates are under counter intelligence investigation by the fbi, has now fired the director of the fbi. that recommendation coming from the attorney general jeff sessions, also his deputy attorney general, rod rosenstein, notably jeff sessions who recused himself from this russia investigation has recommended the firing of the man who is now overseeing that investigation at the fbi. this is a startling series of events. this is not politics as usual. this is very bizarre and unusual what we've witnessed over the course of this last 30 minutes or so. we have received a statement from the press secretary sean spicer just a short time ago where basically he says that

the rational for firing james comey is that it directly contradicts his repeated praise of the former fbi director. brianast year. what we found are repeated reversals and contradiction which are casting doubt from the white house. president trump tonight vigorously defending the firing of the fbi director who he claims lost his confidence. >> because he wasn't doing a good job, very simply. he was wasnn't doing a good job. >> rosenstein now calls mishandling of the hillary clinton e-mail investigation. quote the way the director handled the conclusion eest mof e-mail investigation was wrong. >> our system is absolutely totally rigged. >> he kept up criticism into the fall. >> he let her off the hook. >> after comey reopened the investigation just days before the election, trump repeatedly diffusively praised comey. >> i respect the fact that director comey was able to come back after what he did. >> i have to give the fbi credit, that is so bad what happened originally. and it took guts for director comey to make the move that he made in light of the kind of opposition he had with trying to protect her

brian. >> people like sally yates, james comey, national security professionals, general mcmaster, dina powellon the staff, they are professionals. he is well served by them and would be well served to listen to them. after all in a real no kidding emergency in a crisis if we have a missile launch from north korea, a move by iran against our naval vessels in the gulf, if we have an effort by russia to move on ukraine, if we have a terrorist attack here inside the homeland, we are going to need the national security council and the president of the united states sapphiring on all cylinders, not distracted, not suffering from incompetence, disorganization, disarray. unfortunately, that is a situation we find ourselves in tonight. >> today the job of the nationals security adviser for a good portion of the day was playing defense following up on what had been yesterday's story about the sharing of intelligence. it's a big dangerous world out there. the president is about to be traveling overseas. if the reality of a presidency comes crashing down on this traveling white house are they going to be

. >> brian is here to talk about the firing of james comey, the senator said this threatens the judicial system. what is wrong with president donald trump firing him? >> in principle, nothing, he is the second director to be fired. the first was william sessions, that was in 1993, there was a lot going on around that fbi director but the fbi director serves at the scene pleasure of the president, that part is not the problem. what people are kurned about is the timing of the firing, they are concerned that there is a probe going on and the president took the decision to relief him of his duties but you have to look at the whole story. the bottom line is, i think, from most of the sources that we have talked with, hillary clinton, had she become president, probably would have sent him packing, he became a polarizing force. >> she said last week that james comey is the reason that she's is not the president. >> he would not have survived her president presidency but -- presidency. but we are talking about the timing. >> there were a lot of fast moving developments today. >> the question wa
