devin nunez does not report to me. i am going to as a fellow member, i will leave it up to him to do the right thing and i'm sure he will. >> okay. what is the right thing? >> that's for him to decide. >> let me move on to the agenda. paula page said something earlier today. it was about health care. he said this on the idea of letting obamacare fail. you are telling people let it fail so the american people can get hurt more. does he have a point that the idea of leting it fail is actually -- it may be a good political idea if you believe it's going to fail, but it's harmful to the public if you think this is going to harm the public and that is not good public policy? >> i am not on the page of letting something fail to hurt the american public. and i don't believe my conference is either. unfortunately today obamacare is failing under its own weight. i'm not going to pile on in any way to suggest anything should be done to expedite the failures that we are seeing with insurance saying economically. i have so much un

just a few moments ago talking to chairman devin nunez that leads off our primer. man nunez has canceled all house intelligence committee meetings this week amidst renewed calls for nunez to recuse himself after the revelations he visited white house grounds to look at documents president trump claims vindicated his wiretap claim. >>> attorney general jeff sessions called for an end to so-called sanctuary cities monday, threatening they could lose federal funding if they do not cooperate with immigration authorities. >>> a massive storm injured one person and damaged a number of houses and cars overnight across the south. 15 million people remain at risk for large hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes through thursday. >>> and the oakland raiders are going to sin city. nfl owners approved that move to las vegas by a vote of 31-1. the lone no vote, coming from miami, for some reason. the raiders will be staying in oakland until their $1.9 billion stadium is finished. >>> and make it 111 in a row. the uconn women's basketball team crushed oregon by 38 on their way to th

his words. >>> more democrats calling for house intelligence committee devin nunez to recuse himself,ep down, over questions about the source of his information, claiming the trump transition communications were incidentally intercepted. nunez maintains the material came from an intelligence source and not the white house itself. when asked if nunez should recuse himself house speaker paul ryan today simply said no. the house will vote today on broadband privacy rules approved by the fcc earlier this year. those rules would allow service providers like at&t, verizon, and nbc parent company comcast to sell browsing histories to marketers without consumers' permission. >>> and ford pushed back on president trump's claim their $1.2 billion investment in michigan is tied to his rollback of obama era environmental regulations. the company executive confirming to fox news that the investment was, quote, in the works for quite some time. >>> to politics now the trump administration may be setting their sights on something even more ambitious after that bruising health care fight. tax reform

it's starting to look like that house intelligence investigation under the leadership of devin nunez is blowing up. there are screaming calls today from democrats that chairman nunez should recuse himself from this investigation or that house speaker paul ryan should replace him as chair of that committee. after he called two dramatic press conferences last week saying he was rushed to the white house about troubling information about american intelligence incepts, there's been explanation and wondering since then, a lot of unclear and contradictory information as to where he got that troubling information that he rushed straight to the white house with once he got it. today chairman nunez confirmed that where he got that information from was, quote, the white house grounds. hu h? on the light before his breathless press conference where he insisted to that he had to bring this to the white house, he went to the white house grounds to receive that information in the first place. if that sounds absurd to you, you are not alone. there's nobody on either side of the aisle in washington w

citizens, and devin nunez had a valid point. it is within donald trump's rights. >> this is damaging if you're a republican and you want to keep this from becoming a select committee or independent prosecutor. what you need to preserve is hopefully not the illusion but the integrity of this process. and i think that what representative nunez did, chairman nunez did today undermines that. >> john mccain says -- >> in administratiseparation of. >> why are you more concerned about the process than the substance of his claims? are you concerned at all -- >> i don't think they were spying on donald trump. >> so you think devin nunez lied? >> he didn't say that they were spying on donald trump. >> no, on u.s. citizens. >> but not donald trump. >> it doesn't matter if it's donald trump. a u.s. citizen has fourth amendment rights. >> he's not saying they were spying on u.s. citizens. >> to believe the congress member confirmed that.

this is another cloud over the investigation led by republican devin nunez. house intelligence committee chairman. tonight, nunez is rejecting growing calls for him to step aside from the probe as even some republicans are joining democrats and raising concerns about his credibility. also tonight, the senate intelligence committee is moving forward with plans to question the president's son-in-law, jared kushner, about his russia context. the panel's chairman revealing kushner's testimony will be conducted in private and likely under oath. the president meantime is making good on a campaign promise to gut obama era environmental policies. his just signed executive order is designed to put energy independence and jobs over efforts to combat climb at change. this hour, i'll talk with leon panetta who served as defense secretary and cia director under president obama. and our koerncorrespondents and analysts are standing by. first to our senior white house correspondent jeff zeleny. jeff within sean spicer says the administration would welcome testimony by former

how dare devin nunez go to the white house before the panel. not how dare u.s. citizens were unmasked and their identity leaked. >> my position right now that i'm most concerned about is that you are putting out misinformation. >> it's not misinformation. >> american citizens, it is collateral intelligence. it happens all the time. >>> paul manafort is facing and knocking down new allegations about his ties to russia. he says the newest reporting is a smear and innuendo. we'll have the details ahead. whoa, this thing is crazy. i just had to push one button to join. it's like i'm in the office with you, even though i'm here. it's almost like the virtual reality of business communications. no, it's reality. introducing intuitive, one touch video calling from vonage. call now and get amazon chime at no additional cost. tomorrow's the day besides video games. every day is a gift. especially for people with heart failure. but today there's entresto... a breakthrough medicine that can help make more tomorrows possible. tomorrow, i want to see teddy bait his first hook

nu devin nunez is a former transition official of president trump's. the premise that that can be the foundation for a nonpartisan education. >> democrats will say, ah-ha. >> because of the fact who devin nunez was and how he behaved in the early stages of this administration. so, we're going to be moving forward like this. this is the ball game. this is literally what democrats and republicans want. democrats want to be out there every single day talking about how a real investigation isn't happening if they can push this into a special, you know, a special investigator, that would be a victory for them. but even having the conversation. >> a real banner week for democracy. >> a lot of people have been baffled as to why nunez has beenhaved the way he has the last few days. part of the explanation, not the whole explanation, which is a little hard to follow. part of the explanation is this is all partisan. everything here is partisan. the democrats are partisan and why are you blaming devin nunez for appearing to be partisan. there is an answer to your

the republican chair of the house intelligence committee devin nunez charges u.s. spies surveilled president elect trump. >> the president elect and his team were, i guess, at least monitored. >> reporter: now the times identifying those officials as 32-year-old michael ellis a white house lawyer who form early worked on a white house intelligence staff and 30-year-old ezra watnick. a protege of michael flynn. nunez repeatedly refused to reveal his source but said even though he reviewed the information on white house grounds, white house officials were not involved. >> in fact, i'm quite sure people in the west wing had no idea i was there. >> reporter: if the source was a white house official, it would be a twist in what critics say started an effort to back up the claim he was wiretapped by president obama. last wednesday nunez comes under fire when he shares the new information not with committee colleagues but the press and president who said he felt somewhat kin ka vindicated. sean spicer dismissed suggestions nunez got the information from the white house. >

it's important because when chairman devin nunez came to the white house a week ago and met privatelyndividuals in one of the secure compartmentalized locations here on the white house grounds, he then came back the next day to brief the president. all of this has raised questions about his impartiality, about his independence from the white house right now. sean spicer at this very podium just a matter of days ago said it didn't pass the smell test to think nunez would come here to the white house to get that information and then come back to brief the president if the president had already known about it. he's pushed back on this fiercely over the course of several days. he also hasn't provided any information about who the source is of that information or even who signed chairman nunez in at the time. the reporting according to the "new york times" identifies these two individuals as a man by the name of isra cohen wasnick who works as a senior director for intelligence at the national security council and a second individual by the man named of michael ellis who works for the nati

devin nunez did not have concern. roger stone, i'm not sure who he is. adam s ad adam schiff said he wanted to learn more about what occurred during elections. they had not spoken to michael flynn who admitted to have contacts with the russian ambassador around the type that president obama's administration was imposing new sanctions on russia. at the same time they would not confirm the question that a lot of senators are asking today whether or not there's actually a criminal investigation ongoing in the fbi over russia. they say this wouey would not t about private discussions. this comes as james comey is on capitol hill to talk to the judicial committee at the time where they are looking for confirmation to determine whether or not there is this active criminal investigation ongoing at the fbi. we don't know yet, wolf, if we'll get that answer. that's something that the members will be asking comey in his classified briefing later today. >> very serious questions. jim sciutto, what are you hearing about this suggestion that there may have been some

devin nunez is now the chairman. he says he remains concerned about what he calls the incidental collection of data and the unmasking of names like general michael flynn, the former national security advisor. he sent a letter to the fbi director james comey, the cia director mike pompeo and nsa director, asking for all of those names. why is that information so critical to this investigation? and adam schiff, the ranking democrat, could signed that letter? >> yeah, so, one of the things an investigation in any investigation where there is an electronic wiretap either for data or voice, there will be incidental collection, meaning that person engaged in that intercept was never intended by, under the warrant, to get collected on. if that makes sense. so, those are all very, very well -- there is a record kept of that. they have to go back to the judge and talk about incidental collection. so, i think what the chairman was saying is, hey, those names should never come out in those investigations because they were likel

. >> right, mounting calling for the chairman, the republican chairman, devin nunez to step down after he was briefed here at the white house about the information that he says raises questions about whether or not some trump transition officials may have been scooped up in surveillance. we have been pressing sean spicer on this for days. specifically we wanted to know what signed him into the white house and who briefed him. we have not gotten an answer on either of the counts but we will try again today. we know the white house, i'm told, working on getting us an answer to some of the thorny questions that could raise real ethical rconcerns. but what we do now, mounting calls for devin nunez to recuse himself from the investigation. >> and the republicans on that committee are now rallying around devin nunez, so there is no rebellion on the house republican side. it is republicans in the senate and certainly democrats that are criticizing him. >> he was asked if devin nunez should rescues himself. and ultimately this investigation should be allowed to move forward, and they have fait

off because you wouldn't believe it's believable. >> reporter: the latest bombshell coming from devin nunez, the republican head of the house intelligence committee that revealed u.s. spies may have swept up communications involving the trump transition team. it's called incidental collection and while nunez said there is no evidence to back the president's claim trump tower was wiretapped by president obama, president trump said he felt vindicated anyway. >> i somewhat do, i must tell you i somewhat do. i much appreciated the fact they found what they found. >> reporter: turns out, one day before he briefed the president, nunez was on white house grounds reviewing the secret information from the secret source. >> the congress has not been given this information, these documents. there is no way for the folks that i have been working with to actually to bring this forward to light. there was no way i could view that because they couldn't get it to the house intelligence committee. >> reporter: nunez looked at those reports not in the west wing but a special secure room a few hundred feet aw

devin nunez said he's not that concerned. he barely knows who roger stone is. so it shows some disagreement between partisan lines on this investigation and we'll see what they eventually can agree upon and eventually decide to disclose, jake. >> all right, manu raju, on capitol hill, thanks so much. >>> joining being me now is former democratic presidential candidate bernie sanders of vermont. thanks so much for joining us. >> my pleasure. >> earlier today the chairman and ranking democrat on the house intelligence committee said they know of no evidence that president trump was wiretapped during the obama administration. what's your reaction? >> i am not shocked. i mean, i think we have a president who says things time and time again that have no basis in fact, and there is no evidence behind them. i think it's very sad and dangerous state of affairs, jake, because the day is going to come when some tragedy is going to befall our country and the world and people are not going to believe this president. so, i would hope that the advisors to the president tell

i don't see the whole investigation in the house derailing immediately. >> and then devin nunez tookep further and lindsey graham commented on that, the fact that what was going to be a public hearing tomorrow involving john brennan, james clapper, sally yates, now that will not be so public. what does that mean to you? is that to the detriment to the committee's investigation? >> this is very political. i don't think the private hearings will work. the democrats will complain something is covered up and the other news, paul manafort said he was willing to maybe testify before one of these investigations. that's a really bad narrative for the trump administration. paul manafort is the swamp. he's a political -- >> former campaign manager. >> yes. there was a story by the associate press that he was receiving $10 million a year from a russian oligarch to lobby on behalf of russia. that's the swamp. and if manafort comes forward and questioned, i don't see how he's going to talk his out of this. most americans don't even know who manafort is and heomes forward as a lobbyist making $10

that hearing was canceled by house intel chairman devin nunez, under fire for his leadership in that investigation this afternoon. meanwhile, today, the criticism that nunez has been getting continues to mount. the house speaker, paul ryan, sticking by his colleague. let's get right to our team of correspondents following the latest developments. peter alexander in the briefing room, kasie hunt is on capitol hill and justice correspondent pete williams is in the washington bureau for us. pete, let's start with you. what do we know about the white house actions as they pertain to sally yates' testimony? >> here's the sequence of events as we understand it. in late january sally yates and another government official went to talk to the white house counsel and said we're concerned that michael flynn may not have been completely candid about his contacts with the russians in the view of sally yates this could open him to possible blackmail by the russians, and then she, as you know, was eventually fired by the president in her position as acting attorney general because she had instruct

allen martin, kpix5. >> tonight devin nunez arrived in fresno. a cbs reporter greeted him at the airport, but the republican congressman refused to answer questions about recusing himself from the investigation or about michael flynn asking for immunity. >>> tonight investigators say a burning candle sparked a deadly fire that tore through an oakland building on monday and it was an accident. just three days before the fire city building inspectors found multiple fire code violations including sprinklers and alarms that didn't work. four people were killed in that fire. more than 80 others were displaced. >>> a napa high school student will find out tomorrow if he'll be expelled over a hazing case involving the football team. tonight the teen's parents tell joe vazquez school officials mishandled the entire thing. >> reporter: the napa unified school board met tonight in special session to decide whether to expel two students. the allegation from the district? that a group of as many as 11 students were involved in what they call a serious hazing

having over the last 24 to 48 hours that has been about what is happening on capitol hill with devin nunez and the house intelligence investigation. is my mike open? let me go to cal perry. you have been digging in on what this means to the coal industry. >> we're don't use a lot of coal in this country. we use very little. number three on the list of the energy sources that we have. that's way down from what it once was. we are talking about less than 70,000 jobs. president trump is talking jobs, jobs, jobs saying it will bring a lot of jobs back. when you look at the history of this, it is nothing but falling for the past 70 years. this was the petroleum crisis in the late 70s and 80s. take a look at west virginia. the red line is full time, part-time health cakacare jobs. the blue is the coal industry. you may see a slight increase in west virginia where the plants are staying open, but it's not a massive increase. when he said the pipeline will be used with all u.s. steel, it's not. that was a loophole. he meant future pipelines. >> not in the past. let me switch topics and go to casey

every time, you know, today we had devin nunez, chairman of houps intel, they went to the microphones again. they started answering our questions about what went on. they acknowledge it's possible the president himself or top aides were caught up in electronic surveillance and potentially had their names unmasked. that's a letter that they've sent we learned about today. asking for additional american citizens who may have been swept up in such investigation. they want that information by friday. again, lots of pieces here. one thing at a time. but it all adds up to increasing congressional scrutiny and frustration about the level of information they're able to get about what went on between the trump campaign and potential contacts with russia and what the u.s. government is doing about it. and the more that pressure builds, the more risk there is for the trump administration. clearly, they have seemed to react to this in a way that goes yond the way they have reacted to oer potential problems, domestic issues or criticism, the list goes on. this is something that clearly potentially

i'll quote devin nunez. he said, i don't believe based on the people they spoke with, he said, i don't believe there was an actual tap at trump tower. those are devin nunez's exact words. now, what sean spicer continued to point to at that briefing was the comment that said, nunez said is it fobl trump communications could have incidentally been swept up by surveillance? nunez said possibly, we're going to look into it. he didn't say definitively, he didn't go as far as president trump did in his tweet obama ordered wiretaps of trump tower. nowhere near that has the house intelligence committee has gone, and speaker ryan today when i asked him, do you believe president trump, when he said that trump tower was wiretapped, he said no. he said that i don't believe any such wiretap exists. and also today, jake, adam schiff, the top democrat on the house intelligence committee, told me that he expects james comey to say at a monday public hearing that trump tower was not wiretapped. and schiff himself has had con

we expect to hear from the chairman of the house intelligence committee, devin nunez. they are investigating the russian meddling and allegations that trump campaign associates were in touch with russians during the campaign. >>> jeff sessions this morning, let's quickly let him have a say in this. this morning he was asked about this. before we play the sound, at his confirmation hearing a couple of weeks ago, i had no communications with the russians. overnight he had two conversations with the russian ambassador. a man who, if you to talk to anybody in this town, it's much more known as a spy than a diplomat. two conversations with him last year. here's the attorney general this morning. >> well, i have not met with any russians at any time to discuss any political campaign and those remarks are unbelievable to me, and false and i don't have anything else to say about that. so thank you. >> what about the calls to recuse yourself from your agency's probe of -- >> i have to say whenever it's appropriate, i will recuse myself. there's no doubt about that. >> whenever

this comes a day after the committee's chairman devin nunez did not talk to democrats directly on his committee. he told the public and then the president trump that communications of trump and his soeshl associates may have been collected by intelligence agencies. today he met with people in private and apologized. here's what he said. >> it was a judgment call on my part. sometimes you make the right decision. you have to stick by the decisions you make. >> did this come from the white house? did this information that you got came from the white house? >> as you know, we have to keep our sources and methods here very quiet. i've told the american public several times that we want people to come to us to bring us information if they have it. >> that answer didn't sit well with many democrats including congressman schiff. beyond this apology, you spoke to both congressman schiff and nunez about the evidence of collusion. what did they tell you? >> reporter: there's a sharp disagreement between the two men who are leading this investigation, anderson, about what this evidence actually

devin nunez is a hard guy to alienate from donald trump.i wouldn't even consider that a huge amount of distance. but you can see and sense the frustration there that he doesn't really know how to deal with this. and time and time again this president continues to do things that make it very hard for his allies to defend him. and this is just one of those times. i mean, being a political neophyte is not really an excuse once you've been sworn in as president of the united states. you have to do the job. >> hardest job in america, sean spicer, right? >> everybody else in the white house this morning. >> i find it interesting the idea that a 70-year-old man shouldn't be held accountable for his words. >> i know. and almost -- i mean today he had another tweet this morning which accused the obama administration of releasing hundreds of people from quit mow. come to find out it was the bush administration, obama administration released 9, bush administration released 122. it was wrong. but why there is no vetting of these emissions from the pres

california republican devin nunez revealed yesterday that he met with an unnamed source and reviewed classified documents last week on the white house grounds. he returned the next day to tell president trump what he learned. democrats want nunez to recuse himself. >> the president tried to shift attention on twitter last night, claiming that bill and hillary clinton had more damaging ties to russia saying, quote, trump/russia story is a hoax. jeff pegas is on capitol hill with pressure on nunez to step aside. >> good morning. house speaker paul ryan has full confidence that congressman nunez can conduct a fair and credible investigation but pressure is building on the congressman to explain his actions and reveal his source. >> there was no sneaking around. i walked on to the grounds, said hi to people. i did not go to the west wing, did not talk to the president. >> reporter: the chairman of the house intelligence committee, devin nunez, said it was not a secret that he visited a secure location at the white house last tuesday to review classified documents. >> i needed a place that

for coal miners and repeal president obama's policyn >>> house intelligence committee chairman devin nunez is facing calls to recuse himself. this comes after his secret trip to the white house grounds to review classified information. >>> the white house issuing a new threat to sanctuary committees. >>> the penalties may not be the same for drivers who get a parking ticket in the district. if you get a traffic or parking ticket and you don't pay up in 30 days that fine doubles. the d.c. counsel is looking for a plan to get rid of doubled penalties but only for people who live in the district. that means if you live in virginia or maryland you could pay double fines. aaa says it creates short due dates because of the time it takes to mail notices. dc dmv warns people to nail a week in advance. >> the national season opener what's going to be new at nats park. they'll be showing off new food options, several redesigned spaces. you might recall last year the ball pavg revamped the dining club behind home plate and debuted falaffles, gyros and handmade dumplings. we'll take you behind the cha

it's going to take a while for the house intel committee, devin nunez. we can weigh in on it at any time. we to thinks the house intel cannot do and vice versa, but we'll play a supporting role. >> heard youance anthony's question saying no, you hadn't heard of it. when you heard, i'm curious of your initial reachlkts tion. he was such a high on tuesday and now no one seems to be talking about that. is this a self-inflicted wound or what have you heard about it? >> we haven't been a week since the president's address amend look at what we've covered. look. it's a serious allegation. the president has at his fingertips tens of millions of i think he might have something there but if not, we're going to find out. >> yet congressman, we're hearing he might have gotten the news from "breitbart news" or a radio talk show. he said he has access to top intelligence information. >> yes, he does. he's called upon congress to review that. i'm going wherever the facts take us. i don't know what we're going to finding at this point. but we're really at the beginning

i think one of the most striking responses was from devin nunez. republican who described the president as a neophyte in politics. let's play that, and i'll get you the comment on the other side. >> the president is a neo phyte to politics. he has been doing this a little over a year. i think a lot of the things that he says you guys sometimes take literally. sometimes he doesn't have 27 lawyers and staff looking at what he does, which is i think at times refreshing, and at times it can also lead us to have to be sitting in the press conference like this answering questions that you guys are asking. >> is that a good excuse that the president is new at this? >> it's terrible this idea that he doesn't have 27 lawyers. apparently they just hired a bunch of lawyers at the white house. he could have 27 lawyers reviewing what he does. he could talk to folks and figure out what the deal is in terms of this wiretap. >> it needs the credibility of congress, the credibility of republicans on the hill to back up what he says, which is sort of an interesting

devin nunez delaying the public hearing that was supposed to happen on tuesday into the probe of thection russian interference and accused nunez of injecting politics into it, which you just suggested as well. let me read you a tweet from adam schif. just cancelled open intelligence committee hearing with clapper, brennan, and yates. and went further calling it an obstruction of justice. jeffrey, what's your reaction? >> i think congressman shiff is doing a little bit of a deflection here, but look, it's very clear from what chairman nunez said there's some evidence that president trump or his associates were in fact surveilled by somebody and this was common knowledge, apparently, in the government, and also a fact that this information has been, the classified information unmasking, as they say in the intelligence trade, i guess, various individuals who were caught on these tapes, americans and their identities are not to be released, that's a violation of law, clearly, people in the obama administration were violating the law massively leaking this in places like the new york time

devin nunez could have stated more beautifully. you chose not to cover that part. you chose when others went out. >> hold on -- >> i understand that jonathan. >> where was your passion and concern when there is they said there is no connection from them. >> at the end of the day -- no, hold on, i am making a point. the point is this, number one, it is interesting how when evidence comes out and people briefed on the russia connection comes out saying there is nothing they have seen, you choose not to cover that and you don't stop the narrative. when he came out yesterday and said "i see no evidence of this happening." i think it is possible. we should know later. you don't cover that part. you cover the part, well, lets go through what we do know. hold on, hold on -- i am trying to answer your question if you can calm down. >> if you look at the new york times on january 12, 2017. "the obama administration expanded the power of national security agency to share globally intercepted communication with the government's 16 intelligence agencies. the n the information

what is very interesting about this is that devin nunez, the intelligence chairman on the house side yesterday said we in the media are taking donald trump literally. i don't understand how we could take him when donald trump was literal when he made that accusation on saturday morning. >> i don't think there's a figuratively way for a president to tap someone's phones. there's only one way to take that. mark, these hearings will be public. this will be a chance if the fbi director shows up, former dn. >>> shows up, if sally yates shows up, this will be a chance for them to answer questions, from democrats as well, didn't obama tap trump's phones. >> the hearing will take place on the 20th. the committee has demanded all documentation to be submitted by the 17th. we might actually get a leak out of the committee perhaps, or perhaps out of the witness, about what is going to be said or what the revelations are in the lead-up to the 20th. there is still a lot of road ahead as poppy said until we get to the 20th. i'm sure there's going to be more shoes that will drop before then. >> nev

. >>> the republican chairman devin nunez of california disclosed private communications of president trump and his associates during his transition period may have been picked up by intelligence officials monitoring other targets. nunez tralled to the white house to give him that information. president trump was asked if he feels vindicated about his wiretapping claims. >> i someon somewhat do. >> democrat adam shift was outraged that nunez would divulge information only he has to the president when the committee is supposed to be investigating the president. >> we have been trying to purr e the investigation. things like this have to raise a question in the public about whether that's where the chairman is headed. >>> more from washington, a new revelation about the trump campaign and russia. former campaign chairman paul mannford was paid $10 million to work for this man, close to putin. according to the a.p., he wrote a memo describing how he could be helpful to the russian president. tonight he said he did not work for the russian government. >> capitol hill is expected to be the

devin nunez, the republican chairman of the house intelligence committee said it is plausible and they are continuing to look at the facts. i would like to see what these investigations determine and i think that will help us all understand what happened. one thing is true, many folks who i respect in the media have been reporting these investigations have gone on. that conversations were intercepted by our government and that was done by obama, by the obama administration during a heated campaign. if there are reasons to do that, i want to hear them. they better be damn good because we have never seen this that one administration starts investigating the opponent. >> we have never seen the president of the united states accuse of former president of tapping phones and providing no evidence for two weeks. i would also point out, matt -- >> let me try to answer. >> that wasn't a question, no need to answer. i would point out if there spicer, yesterday, in his news conference accuses britain's intelligence agency, then 12 hours later says i won't say that in public anymore, why do that?

devin nunez confirmed there is no evidence to support president trump's claim that president obama had him wiretapped at trump tower. take a listen. >> as i mentioned to you last week, are you going to take the tweets literally and if you are, then clearly the president is wrong. >> shouldn't president trump expect that the american people are going to take him literally? >> well, sure. look, i don't know what he wants to achieve in a given tweet. some of them may or may not be intended to be interpreted that way. i think our chair and the ranking member devin and adam gave the facts. i got the same briefing and they are still doing their investigation, all things related to russia and the election. and i think during their investigation this is information that they felt was important to shed light on and that's what they did. i support what they've done and i support their continuing investigation in this entire episode. >> the president addressed this in an interview with fox this afternoon. he said the word, wiretap covers a lot of different things, and that people are going to hea

as devin nunez, the house chairman put it, the intelligence chairman put it at the end of the hearing, he called it a big, gray cloud over the administration because comey was able to confirm the investigation. he provided no additional details or names. that, i think, is going to contribute to the same atmosphere we have had along here where you have some members who are getting more information in a classified setting. they are not able to say it out loud. it is difficult to separate fact from fiction and get clarity on what is happening. the headlines in the newspapers this morning, certainly difficult ones for republicans. paul ryan just walked by the camera on the way in. he is a policy person who spent a decade building his career on things like this health care bill that is now potentially in trouble. it's harder to make an ask of somebody to vote for the bill, potentially lay their political life on the line for you, if, in fact, you are under fbi investigation, for example. everything coming out of this white house, all these ancillary stories make it harder for republicans i

they insist that devin nunez was there to listen and they knew he was coming. >> we said in an interview said this does not vindicate the president on the tweet about president obama wiretapping trump tower. bob costa a final thought from you on what is a busy day. how does this play out over the health care bill? >> look. a lot has happened the last 12 hours. and some congressmen right now republicans are waking up on capitol hill and they have a choice to make. the president has a major legislative test sitting in the house of representatives. i'm told the votes are nearly there. some soft no's that maybe could be flipped. and the president has told the speaker he wants the vote today. the speaker has told the white house that he would be willing to postpone, if necessary, for a few more hours or even a few more days. but bannon, priebus, and trump are telling everyone this is it. so they could walk, could just be a threat. they have postponed the vote before but what a morning here in washington for the relationship between the white house and congress, and for trump himself. >> bob c

congressman devin nunez briefed the president and the media on that information but not the other members of his committee. >> the chairman will need to decide whether he is the chairman of an independent investigation into conduct, or he's going to act as a surrogate of the white house, because he cannot do both. >> nunez again today repeated that president obama did not wire tap trump tower. are questioning whether nunez can lead an impartial investigation into russia's meddling in our election. >>> well, you'll be able to take the new escalator the next time you use the bethesda metro station, but that's not what has a lot of people talking on our facebook page tonight. in unveiling the new escalators, it was suggested riders were hurting the escalators by following the travel etiquette we've all been accustomed to. walk to the left, stand on the right. >> we do not promote, obviously the walking on the left. these very sensitive pieces of equipment, and you can imagine this one would be a rise of almost ten storeys, how that can impact it. >> the problem is, metro does promote it, and

you played earlier in the block devin nunez, the chairman of the house intelligence committee. i think the way he has changed his tone and answers on this is potentially very significant. he has been the president's -- one of his most aggressive defenders and for him to say the president was wrong in these tweets if you take him literally i think is an important marker in this ongoing saga. >> katty kay, it seems at this point what they are wanting from him, even republicans like lindsey graham and devin nunez, they want the president to either follow through on his claim or walk it back, himself. not other people. himself. because there seems to be something really morally significant about him doing that and the danger, if he continues to sort of riff around it which is what you saw happening on the friendly interview he had with tucker carlson about this, tucker trying really hard to give him an open space to perhaps say i misspoke which would be a lot better for our country. can you explain why that might be better, especially in terms of how the world views this president?

devin nunez, a chairman of the house intelligence committee, has given the u.s. justice department until tomorrow to turn over any evidence that might stanch yale the current president's claim. now president trump made the accusations on his twitter page last weekend. a spokesperson for former president barack obama quickly denied those accusations, in fact pointing out that the president does not have the power to order secret wiretaps saying only a federal judge can approve warrants that might have been requested by federal investigators. of course, this is all supposed to come out if there's any evidence to this tomorrow at this hearing in congress. reporting live at san jose international, i'm sergio quintana, abc 7 news. >>> the effort from the trump administration to repeal and replace artable care act -- it's gets plenty of pushback. david daniel has the story. >> reporter: it was one of president trump's biggest campaign promises -- repeal and replace obama care. earlier this week, the trump administration launched a new bill with house speaker paul ryan

both chairman devin nunez, republican and ranking member adam schiff said the same thing on that point. now, nunez said, okay, fine, if that's not actually the case f you're reading the tweets literally and he's wrong, what could you potentially be talking about? part of that could be what's picked up in the course of electronic surveillance. the government does surveil people they believe are foreign agents or spies who are not american citizens. there are very strict rules against cia or other intelligence agencies spying on americans. what happened with mike flynn is he got caught up in surveillance of other officials. in this case the russian ambassador, who is regularly surveilled. his name was released to the public. that's very unusual. that is something republicans immediately said, okay, we want to investigate these leaks. one other piece of this puzzle, if there were other trump campaign officials, that's what i asked nunez about today, who were swept up into investigations because the american government were listening to other people, people they thought were foreign ents,

. >> yeah, and the house intel chair devin nunez went even further to say, the president is a politicaldoesn't seem to know what he's talking about here perhaps or he doesn't know his way -- what? he's the president of the united states. and he put out this statement that had totally no evidence and, of course, the white house is not going to be able to put out evidence because there is none. >> he may have meant the president didn't know it was legal -- >> devin nunez, the chairman of the house intelligence committee said, look, the president has only been a politician for about a year or so. don't take his words literally. he may not have known what he was doing. he's just saying this. that's pretty outrageous. >> the outrageous thing is he's right about that in a sense, that the president does act and tweet and say things based on, you know, sort of sketchily sourced press reports rather than relying on the greatest intelligence service in the world. so, look, there's no -- we haven't seen evidence of this because there is no evidence. the white house when they were pressed last week

>> we won't know that until we receive the >> reporter: devin nunez talked to president trump before talking to his own committee. the investigation started after the president's infamous assertion that obama tapped his phones during the election. kn tonight, democrats are fuming. >> that effort to defend the indefensible has led us down this terrible rabbit hole. >> reporter: committee members infuriated that he's postponing a meeting. >> he seems to be more loyal to the president than our duty to search for the truth. >> reporter: and paul manafort is refusing to testify. >> pierre, director comey went to the white house to meet with president trump today. do we know anything about that meeting? >> reporter: he was there for a scheduled meeting, but we're told he did not spoke with the president. >> thank you. >>> and police launching raids in london, arresting more suspects, and authorities releasing a new photo of the alleged attacker. isis calling him their soldier. here's terry moran in london. >> reporter: the face of the killer. police releasing this fphoto of khalid masood.
