we looked at it from the position of what did the justice department do? there is a lot we can do but the impact of what we already set in place, incarceration and other measures extends far beyond justice. the reentry counsel has been one of the most successful collaborations in washington and i think it is because there is a group of agencies and i'm tremendously proud every agency on this stage is represented as well as several others that put aside their main desire to be the leader and said what can we do together? how can we look at the impact of the criminal justice system on individuals in a multifaceted multilayered role and what can we do to impact that? what are some basic things we can do to move reentry down the line and make it real for people? it is a combination of agencies who use their policy power, the policy power and instinctive all the people who work for us. our connections to the field. it has been a very successful collaboration. some of the things that have come out of it are talking about barriers to reentry and the logistical iss

department of justice. prior to joining doj he focused on criminal justice reform issues and in 2014 he was honored as a champion of change at the white house. we are thrilled to have all of them here today so without further do please join me in welcoming them. [applause] >> thank you for that warm introduction. i want to thank the folks at the center for american progress for hosting this very important conversation. to say that this is a surreal experience for me would be an understatement. sitting on the stage with for cabinet level officials talking about these important issues is a bucket list moment, if you will, for me. what really grounds it and makes it more surreal for me is that 20 years ago i couldn't of envisioned having this conversation you all. i was beginning to serve a ten year sentence in the alabama department of corrections for first-time nonviolent drug violation peer i went into the department of corrections with the high school diploma and i came out with the high school diploma. the

the department of justice defended president obama's actions. the top lawyers in the u. department of justice go to texas and they defend this case, and they're opposed by more than half the attorneys general of the united states. judge hanen heard the case and issued an injunction. he said, mr. president, you are changing the regulations of the united states that have been issued pursuant to the immigration and nationality act. you're changing those. and before you can change regulations, you have to be able to go through a process, and you have to have notice, an opportunity for people to be heard and objections to be made. and before the regulations can be altered. that was basically the decision that he rendered. the united states court of appeals for the fifth circuit next to the supreme court upheld the injunction, and today's decision confirms that the obama administration's lawless plans may not proceed. but the fight is far from over. the case will now be sent back to judge hahn nor for -- judge hanen for additional litigation on the merits and the ultimate outco

department of the justice forced to reverse it after it tried too center transcript of 911 calls, that were made by orlando terrorist omar mateen. we have known for more than a week that mateen was a radical islamist terrorist motivated by the islamic state. but the justice deputy today went full little bittal. a-- justice department today went full political, sensorring islamic references made by mateen, and department of justice and fbi tried to manipulate, public of islam. today doj released transcripts, as promised, after the doj and fbi had sensored his pledge of ally jansallegiance to al-baghdadi and the islamic state, and translated arabic, allah, to god. social media exploded. the backlash was almost universal, hours later, doj was forced to reverse itself and lift the since sor ship, make -- sensorship, making public the transcript without any sensorship. we take up the administration's arrogance from the white house to what is little more than mr. obama's political arm, the department of justice, all the way to fbi, their shameful effort to sensor truth and dismiss the public

in addition, the department of justice is making available $1 million in emergency funding available nt. the state will be able to apply for these funds on behalf of orlando and other affected jurisdictions to cover, for example, overtime costs for state and local responders. and we will move quickly to make this award as soon as possible. we are also offering emergency counseling first responders to help them deal with the trauma that they, too, had experienced because in their bravery they shouldered the dangers that are visited upon all of us and they carry that weight long after the smoke has cleared. and we will continue to make any and all resources available to them as this investigation unfolds. but the department of justice is also determined to do anything that we can to help this community heal, to recover and to become whole again. our office for victims of crime and the fbi office for victim assistance have already worked with local, state, and federal officials and community groups to set up a family assistance center service -- excuse me, a family assistance center, and

of them over to meet with me. were you all surprised to find that the police department was under investigation by the department of justice i wasn't. >> cobb: why not? >> because i know the history of the newark police department. i'm 65. so i'm probably a littler older or might be the oldest thing in this room. and the newark police department-- and we're talking about '70s and, i guess, the '60s-- they treated african americans very unfair. truly unfair. there's a culture, and particularly dealing with white policemen. they see young black men or black men as thugs. so for me, in order to survive, you have to know the system. there's certain clothes i won't wear. i will never fit the profile. i taught my son and my daughter that. >> it depends on the socioeconomic or the profile of the individuals in how you experience the police. i certainly believe that there is an expectation that the police are going to crack down on the level of murders, the violence, the robberies that are taking place. >> i teach first grade, so seven-year-olds. and so i have little boys in my classroom who are like, "oh, no, i don't like the pol

of all irs leadership attempted to obstruct justice." that is investigation number two. not a partisan investigation of a committee known for its partisanship. in a bipartisan briefing, the departmentf justice informed members of this committee and its staff that the inspector general's office and the fbi agreed with the conclusions of the department of justice. even the chairman has said that he has confidence in the fbi director comey. so we work bipartisanly and we have completed the review and on this committee, what it really wants is to do an impeachment, but even its own leadership could not stomach that. so its own leadership pushes it back to what we now have, which is a warmed over version of impeachment that will mean nothing, will go nowhere, will not be seen in the senate, will fade into history as another example of the stark partisanship of this committee, notwithstanding the facts of the report, and notwithstanding objective fact finding. i yield back. the gentlewoman yields back, and now i recognize the gentleman from alabama, mr. palmer. as to palmer: think mr.palmer: thank you, mr. chair. chair: before the gentle man yields back, i think the great deal of frustra

doj, the department of justice, did an intensive investigation. and their investigation went not only to commissioner koskinen, but they found, and here i quote, "no evidence that any official involved in the handling of tax-exempt applicatio applications or irs leadership attempted to obstruct justice." that's investigation under two, not a partisan investigation. of a committee known for its partisanship. in a bipartisan briefing, the department of justice informed members of this committee and its staff that the inspector general's office and the fbi agreed with the conclusions of the department of justice. even the chairman has said he has confidence in fbi director comey. so we have three entities, none smeared with partisanship the way this committee often is, tasked with this matter even with criminal investigation, have completed their review. then along comes this committee. what it really wants is to do an impeachment. but even its own leadership could not stomach that. so its own leadership pushes it back to what we now have, which is a

than what we interpret it to be in the past but this is not an idea that has popped up in the department of justice and the department of education or even hour -- because we were probably out of those agencies in condemning the north carolina and other laws than we did this in april. but if you really look back there is a history of this issue being addressed not only by the eoc and i know commissioner kirsanow had raised a point that should be applied here but a number of cases settled by the department on this basis. if you look back there's an excellent 1995 law review article from the university of pittsburgh law school entitled the central mistake of sex discrimination law is the disaggregation of sex from gender. they are clearly talks about the relationship between gender identity and sex and the appropriateness of having disaggregated it because they are in a related and they have the same, they should be treated the same for title ix purposes and that is what's happening today. this not a concept that has come up in the obama administration that they wanted to pursue. this is a very thoug

but the bottom line is, if she is indicted, i don't think the department of justice is going to bring criminal charges and she could be in november, right before the election with a hanging indictment over her head. i know she is the first woman possibly, also the first person running for president under fbi investigation. sandra: that won't happy because hillary shays she is 100% sure she will not face criminal indictment. harris: i will forever ask why democrats don't care about this issue. sandra: i don't know. harris: goes to issue of trustworthiness. >> fascinating they have a nominee of the party they are not certain will not be criminally facing -- very scary. harris: all right.

so all of this is going to be muddled when there is feeblely an answer from the justice department. >> and none of this had to happen. >> no. all these -- it's like this didn't have to happen. >> talk about golf next year. >> right. i don't talk about grandchildren. i don't know, whatever. but any time. any way, rick, jack kirks thank you both. >> thanks, greta. >> thank you. >> it didn't take long. donald trump jumping into the action. here is he talking about the clinton, lynch meeting with sean hannity. >> when i first heard that yesterday afternoon, i actually thought they were joking. i thought the people that told me was, you know, i said no way. there is just no way that's going to happen. and it happened. and i am just -- i'm flabbergasted by it i think it's amazing. i have never seen anything like that before. >> former florida congressman alan west goes "on the record." good evening, sir. >> good evening, greta. >> everybody else is talking about it so what are your thoughts between the meeting of the attorney general and the former president? >> well, i think you don't look

of all irs leadership attempted to obstruct justice." that is investigation number two. investigation of a committee known for its partisanship. in a bipartisan briefing, the department of justice informed members of this committee and that the inspector general's office and the fbi agreed with the conclusions of the department of justice. has said thatman he has confidence in the fbi director combing --director comey. we work bipartisanly and we one completed the review and this committee, what it really wants is to do an impeachment, but even its own leadership could not stomach that. so its own leadership pushes it back to what we now have, which is a warmed over version of will meant that nothing, will go nowhere, will not be seen in the senate, will fade into history as another example of the stark partisanship of this committee, notwithstanding the facts of the report, and notwithstanding objective fact finding. i yield back. yields back, and now i recognize the gentleman from alabama, mr. palmer. -- mr.almer: think chair. thank you, mr. before --chair: before the gentle man yields back, i think the great deal of frustration is that there was evidence in their

the guidance was bored by the department of education at the department of justice reasonably interpret sex discrimination to necessarily include gender identity discrimination for purposes of compliance with title ix. it's a logical outgrowth for voluntary resolutions into which both the departments come into which both departments have entered into with prior litigation page also serves as the correct foundation for the recent decision handed down by the fourth circuit that the departments interpretation of its own regulations regarding restroom access by transgender individuals. on april 18, 2016 u.s. commission on civil rights by majority vote strongly condemn the recent state laws and proposals targeting members of the bisexual and transgender community for discrimination including north carolina's legislation forcing transgender people to use public top rooms based on sex and not according to their gender identities. the state laws attempting to delphi the protections of the equal protection and due process clauses of the 14th amendment to individuals based on their gender identit

we report to the damepartment o justice on potential trouble spots around the country as we learn of them so the department will be aware of them. planning for boston took place a year in advance. with state officials, city officials the department of justice and the fbi. our approach, our only approach was through informants. and through the use of informants we solved these cases. the ones that were solved. there were some of the bombing cases we never solved. they're extremely difficult. but these informants as we told the attorney general and the president that we had moved informants like mr. roe up to the top leadership. he was the body guard to the head man. he was in a position where he could forwarn us of violence, help us on cases that had transpired and yet we knew and could see that this could continue forever unless we can create enough disruption that these members will realize if i go out and murder three civil rights members, even if law enforcement members were in on it, that i will be caught. and that's what we did. and that's why violence stopped was because the klan was insecure and jus

it has recently been returned to me by the department of justice." then he says, "the firearm is fully functional as the attempts by the department of justice on behalf of b. hussein obama to render the firearm inoperable were thwarted." b. hussein obama?! i love how racists can work a muslim slam into "any" unrelated conversation. man, he killed two birds with that racist stone. of course, he also claimed the birds were attacking him. (laughter) right? but reason has no place in this ad. zimmerman even claims the gun is a hot item on the museum circuit. "many have expressed interest in owning and displaying the firearm, including the smithsonian museum in washington, d.c. okay. first of all, please do not cast michael b. jordan for this night at the museum movie. too dangerous. incidentally, george, the smithsonian denies any interest, you stupid (bleep). (applause) all right? they're not interested. okay. now it looks like the auction site has been taken down, so yea america. but here's why this gets me so angry -- every time george zimmerman is a t

tonight the department of justice heard some frankly blistering criticism from chester residents aboutts police department. the meeting here at widener university was the first step in what will no doubt mean big changes for the chester police department. >> chester police department for me, they do not treat the residents of this community like we're human beings. >> reporter: bill as a listening session. >> it is racism here. i dealt with it. >> reporter: but tonight was a night to vent the. the target the chester police department. >> ya'll got sneaky cops in this city. real crafty. >> a white officer comes up and puts the gun right in my face and ransacked my car. nothing to be found it in. >> reporter: one by one residents took to the mike at widener university taking issue from anything from police brutality to stop and frisk. the crowd was small but passionate. >> this room should be swarmed with people. it should be people standing outside of this door. >> reporter: public input session is the first step in six-month program bite us justice department office of community polici

but i think the top political officials at the department of justice starting with the attorney general the deputy attorney general at a minimum should recuse themselves. let's let the career rank ares at the fbi -- ranks at the fbi and the criminal division handle this and hope that they're immune from political influence. lou: john bolton, i will accede to your recommendation. it -- and now i will, and i fully support it. ambassador, thanks so much. as a matter of protocol, i tend to do that with you. [laughter] john bolton, good to have you with us. >> glad to do it. lou: we're coming right back. we've got much more to, as i said, examine here tonight. stay with us. >>> donald trump says we need a change of leadership and quickly if we are to defeat radical islamist terrorists. >> we're weak, we're ineffective, we're not being led properly, and isis sees that, and it's only going to get worse. lou: and this house in japan teeter oring above neighboring homes believe -- below. we'll have the video to show you next. a lot more tonight. we'll be right back after these messages. stay wit

and make a referral to the department of justice. once the referral is made, justice decides whether to go forward. obama could simply tell loretta lynch his department of justice appointee who serves at his pleasure either to not put it in the grand jury or make a presentation and then not ask for an indictment. in, folks, you'll never know. because if anyone talks about it, they violate grand jury secrecy and they go to jail. now, if loretta lynch were true to her charge, she would have sought an independent prosecutor months ago when her boss went on national television and prejudged a federal criminal investigation as one, quote, ginned up by politics, which i imagine wasn't rel received by career hard working diligent fbi agents. but the tell tale was this week with hillary's shot across the bow. without an ounce of humility she says in her ever-changing narrative -- >> everybody in the department knew that i was e-mailing from a personal address. hundreds of people knew it. people around the government knew it. >> translation --

in addition, the department of justice is making available $1 million in emergency funding, available to the florida department of law enforcement. the state will be able to apply for these funds on behalf of orlando and other affected jurisdictions to cover for example, overtime costs for state and local responders. we will move quickly to make this award as soon as possible. we are also offering emergency counseling resources to first responders to help them deal with the trauma that they too have experienced. because in their bravery, they shoulder the dangers that are visited on all of us and they carry that weight long after the smoke has cleared and we will continue to make any and all resources available to them as this investigation unfolds, but the department of justice is also determined to do anything that we can to help this community heal, to recover and to become whole again. our office for victims of crime and the fbi office for victim assistance have already worked with local, state, and federal officials and community groups to set up a family assistance center servic

director louis freeh and the department of justice. in a letter to senate leadership, former u.s. attorney michael mukasey, with former director bill sessions and dozens of former federal judges and u.s. attorneys, shared what they believe the sentencing reform and correction act can do, and i quote. they said it is good for federal law enforcement and public safety, and it will more effectively assure that justice shall be done. groups like law enforcement leaders to reduce crime and incarceration which represent more than 160 current and former police chiefs, u.s. attorneys and district attorneys have spoken out in support of this bill, arguing that this is a unique moment of rare bipartisanship consensus on the urgent need for criminal justice reform. as law enforcement leaders, we want to make it clear where we stand. not only is passing federal mandatory minimum reform necessary to reduce incarceration, it is also necessary to help law enforcement continue to keep crime at historic lows across the country. we urge congress to pass the sentencing reform and corrections act. con

after graduation in 1971 i got my dream job as an attorney in the civil rights division of the department of justice. went on to the lawyers committee, and then served in management capacities at the department of health, education, and welfare, the equal employment opportunity commission, and the department of education. so i feel pretty much at home back here in d.c. i return to my alma mater in 1985 as a law professor, then transition to the role of interim vice provost for minority affairs and faculty development, and then deputy chancellor shortly thereafter. i have a strong love for the institution, and i made it very clear that under my tenure as president i want to see real change, both for the good of a great university that we have, but also so that i can get back to enjoying my much too short retirement. in full disclosure it's important to provide a little background on what caused what i have called the perfect storm at mizzou. in november there was a culmination of issues that arose that previous spring that challenged the leadership on the campus. lost in the media's near total focus

the florida department of law enforcement has set aside $520,000 for the orlando police department to cover some of their expenses. florida department of law enforcement has also asked justice for $2 million, grants to help both the city and the county to cover expenses that they have. the state department of children and families has set aside $500,000 to cover grief counseling and other issues. i want to congratulate the mayor -- mayors for what they've done with regard to reaching out to everybody that's impacted. as i talk to family members, they are just now -- they are in their grieving process but they are moving on to how are they going to bury their loved ones. they're asking for privacy. they're asking for people to respect them. no different than what you would expect if this happened to one of your loved ones. i know everybody's very interested in what happened here. but this is somebody's son or daughter, brother, sister, grandchild, and they are grieving. they cannot imagine how this happened to their family. like none of us could imagine how this could happen to any of our families. so i want to thank everybody for all they're doing to help each of these fami

now, despite the department of homeland security's preemptive implementation, the department of justice assured the judge, gave the judge absolutely -- absolute assurance and also gave an assurance to opposing counsel representing these 26 states including texas in december of 2014 and again in january 2015 that the agency would not begin implementing the 2014 dhs directive until at least february 2015. that turned out not to be case. now, up surprisingly this representation, the representation characterized by the judge as intentionally deceptive, lawyerly runaround, turned out to serve the agency's objectives. according to the court, these were material misrepresentations that allowed dhs' attorneys to effectively mislead the suing states into forgoing a temporary restraining order or an earlier hearing to try to stop the implementation of this program, of the president's unilateral executive action on immigration. and so in the meantime, during period in which we're talking about dhs granted or renewed over 100,000 modified daca applications using the dhs directive. so let me ask you

highlighted by the egregious, unethical conduct conduct of the lawyers of the united states department of justice, where i served for almost 15 years and we worked our hearts out to always be faithful and operate with integrity before the federal judges and always, since we were representatives of the united states of america to make sure that every representation that we made to the court wasig accurate, of a hive standard and most united states attorneys and justice lawyer should know that and adhere to that at the highest level. the p other lawyers frequently don't, private attorneys don't, but, but the federal attorneys, representing the people of the united states of america have that high duty. well what happens, judge hannon found billy that they were determined to go forward with the unlawful actions even though he had ordered them to stop. and it appears to cause someof e substantial violation of ther integrity of the immigration law in their department and they are going to have a further hearing soon i believe on whether there will be additional penalties. he has already impose penalti

fox news is confirming the department of justice officials filing this motion to seek a 27-month delay in producing correspondence between hillary clinton while she was secretary of state and four of her top aides with the clinton foundation and closely allied public relations firm that bill clinton helped to launch. so again, state department filing a motion in federal court for a 27-month delay, which cynically oh, they just don't want this to come out before the election. >> of course. but i'm telling you right now, that motion will be denied. there are two cases, each of a federal judge is hearing this, one a reagan appointee, one a bill clinton appointee, both have questioned mrs. clinton's credibility. both suggested there is conspiracy in her office to evade and avoid federal law. neither would accept the application, the application will fail. it is obvious that these people are trying to hide something. it is obvious that a tea kettle of evidence is about to burst and the clintons are doing everything they can to try to keep the steam in. and forces of nature will get that ste

we are always interested in doing more with the department of justice both in terms of border security and dealing with our counter-narcotics mission. dhs has a mission. >> and seven issue on so now you would use it all and then it evaporates pretty quick as i'm going to go to a completely different subject but i do want to submit for the record bigger the latest data on the number of people estimated come across board or other than mexican. it's my understanding its the majority of those coming across the border. i will submit those for the record. i want to talk about tsa for a minute from the perspective of a customer. i fly through afford segments a week. it seems the customer experience has more to do with the inherent personality of the person i encountered that a culture of customer service. or if they happen to know who i am, which is very seldom. i'm wondering, it may be think about it. i didn't plan it asking the question speed i hope you a total airport you are using. >> the concern i have, we are at a very stressful time now. when people go to airports, even with his temple

vicki:an antioch special needs school is being scrutinized and investigated by the california department of justice. kron4 was the first to bring you the shocking news that was transpiring at the tobinworld school. >> pam:the department of justice is launching an investigation into non public schools relating to their treatment of students with disabilites. this is after a video showed a 9-year-old boy being slapped and roughed up by a teacher's aide. the california bureau of children's justice is looking for anyone with information helpful to their investigaition to submit tips to their website. >> britteny: get this bad error data goes into effect tomorrow. i do not have a great news for a big potential continues to increase and also on the decane in the lane southbound all lanes northbound highway 17 and opened and then where get a look outside right now. the sun slowly setting but see any cloud policy patchy fog developing as we go into the rest of tonight in the fog will stick with us as we head into tomorrow morning and that in the afternoon we see lots of sunshine approaching the midweek coo

those of us at the department of justice, there is also ways for all of us here in this country. within the department we will continue to investigate this attack and see if there are lessons we can learn to prevent another tragedy. but for all of us, all of us, there are ways we can move forward. we need to have the hard discussion. there is talk about gun laws that allow an individual to legally purchase weapons that facilitate mass killings. we have to have those hard discussions. we have to push back on the voices that prey on fear and are so divisive. and most of all, we have to stand up, we have to stand up against hate. we have to stand up for love, a love that embodies america at its best. and as we all try, as we always do, to make some sense to find some reason in an inherently senseless act, i want all of our lgbt friends, our friends, our family members to know this, that we support you. we stand with you and in the aftermath of this horrific attack, we have been inspired by you. we have been inspired by your community coming together in resilience, coming together in

melissa: department of justice bowing to pressure to release the orlando gunman's full transcript calls to 911. judge andrew napolitano is here with what you need to know on this one. david: tighter control of gun sales front and center. the senate set to vote on four bills within the next hour, two democrat, two republican, sparking a heated debate. >> the president, the whole gun ban movement said hey, don't look at terrorists, look over here, divert your attention, take your eyes off the problem because they don't want to face the embarassment of their failure in this terrorist area and they want to cover their butts and not talk about. when a moment turns romantic why pause to take a pill? or stop to find a bathroom? cialis for daily use is approved to treat both erectile dysfunction and the urinary symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently, day or night. tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and medicines, and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex. do not take cialis if you take nitrates for chest pain, or adempas for pulmonary hypertension, bl . . . . side

>> is the judge looking to find out whether or not the immunity he has been granted by the department of justice and beall know the fbi can't grant the immunity, only the department of justice can, is the judge looking to see whether or not he's in jeopardy or whether or not he has transactional immunity which means get out of jail free can never be prosecuted in which case he can be forced to testify as how the server was set up, how he monitored it, the fact he was paid privately by the clinic tonights as a former campaign worker as well as and the state departme department. >> if he has immunity, he may have to testify. if he does assert his fifth amendment claim unlike in a criminal case in a civil case, a judge if he chooses can draw adverse inferences. use that assertion against you and suggest -- and conclude that maybe there's something to hide. >> does this judge by bill clinton all federal judge. had hillary clinton followed the rules we would never be here. you get the sense, number one, that the judge is frustrated with the, you know, failing of the state department to come forward w

i saw this first hand when i was at the department of justice. i saw it too frequently. i was so appreciative of the assistance i got from so many people in this room. the fact of the matter is we lost a critical tool to protect latinos and african-americans and others seeking the right to vote when the supreme court struck down the shelby case and as justice ginsberg put it throwing out section five of the voting rights act when it has worked to stop discrimination is like throwing away the umbrella in a rain storm because you are not getting wet. it has protected the rights of so many people. i was in arizona recently and if you read about their democratic primary or their primary generally a few months ago it was a mess. it was a mess because they reduced the number of places where you could vote. if the law had been in place they would not have been able to do that and guess where those places got reduced to most? where latinos live. that is unconsciousible. we have to do more about it. we have to do more to address economic inequality. we have to do more to rebuild t

i'm really disappointed by the department of justice and the attitude from the attorneys and the department of justice. one of the things i try to stress was when i was senior attorney in the military i had young prosecutors who are overzealous. i felt that throughout this process it was a very disrespectful word. one of the issues that sidetracked us for another year was when i left crs, i did the same thing i had done after every military assignment. i copied the files off my computer my last day in the. it took two years before they actually looked at the computer i used. they discovered i had taken all the documents off of it, so suddenly i am being accused of theft of government property. it is like the e-mail debate in the presidential debate because doj did not have a cavalier attitude of me taking my e-mails off the government computer. they said it was government property. they insinuated i could face , so i had to go out and get the criminal defense attorney to represent me when suddenly i am being accused and they use words like misconduct, lack of integrity, things that mean a l

by thesappointed department of justice and the attitude the attorneys in the department of justice took. one of the things i tried to stress to people who work for me when i was a senior attorney in hadminute -- military and junior attorneys that were overzealous, was that to treat everybody with respect. i feel this was disrespectful. spend, tond defamed, try to make it is painful and difficult as possible. one of the issues that sidetracked us for another year did the i left crs i same thing i did after every military assignment, my last day of copied the files off my computer and left. it took two years before they actually looked at the computer i used and when they did, they discovered i took all the documents and suddenly i am being accused of theft. cavalierid not have a attitude about me taking my e-mails of the government computer, they said it was government property. they insinuated i could face criminal charges. ad so i had to go out and get criminal defense attorney to represent me when suddenly i am being accused. the doj used terms like misconduct, lack of integrity. it r

department cover some of their expenses. the florida department of law enforcement has also asked justice for $2 million in grants to help both the city and the county to cover expenses that they have. the state department children and families of suicide $500,000 to cover grief counseling and other issues. i want to congratulate the mayors for what they've done with regard to reaching out to everybody that's impacted in the new center that's open. as i've talked to family members, they're in their grieving process but they're moving on to how are they going to bury their loved ones. they're asking for privacy. they're asking for people to respect them. no different than what you would collect if this happened to one of your loved ones. i know everybody is very interested in what happened here, but this is somebody's son or daughter, brother, sister, grandchild, and they're grieving. they cannot imagine how this happened to their family. none of us could imagine how this could have happened to any of our families. i want to thank everybody for all they're doing to help each of these families get back to work, get their lives

>> is the judge looking to find out whether or not the immunity he has been granted by the department of justice, and we all know the fbi can't grant the immunity, only the department of justice can. looking to see whether or not he is in jeopardy or whether he has transactional immunity, which means get oust of jail free, can never be prosecuted, in which case he could be forced to testify as to how the server was set up, how he monitored it, the fact he was paid privately by the clintons as a former campaign worker as well and the state department. >> because if he has broad immunity as you suggest or even a narrow form of immunity he may have to testify. that's exactly right. i'll tell you, if he does assert his fifth amendment claims unlike in a criminal case, in a civil case a judge if he chooses can draw adverse inferences, use that assertion against you and suggest -- and conclude that maybe there's something to hide. >> does this judge appointed by bill clinton, a federal judge, has said you know, had hillary clinton followed the rules we would never be here. you get the sense, number on

. >> that was the attorney general, loretta lynch, earlier today in orlando claiming the department of justice is looking to be as transparent as possible in the ongoing terror investigation. this comes after yesterday's controversy where the doj, they decided to censor references to isis in transcript of the orlando terrorist 911 phone call. before, of course, reversing course and releasing the unredacted version. here with reaction, fox news contributor tucker carlson, former obama economic adviser, austan goolsbee. austan, explain to me this. for years it's been man-caused disasters. overseas contingencies. workplace violence. the guy says, i am affiliated with isis, i'm committed to isis, and they redact it. now, why is there this mysterious reluctance and res t resistance of your friend, obama, to speak the truth and tell the american people the truth? why not tell us the truth? >> i think you're being a little unfair there, you know -- >> me? >> as you know, the president got up and in his speech and press conference about this hi in any way. specifically said this guy -- >> excuse me, l
