i want it start with the devon nunez memo. what do we know that might be in it and the purpose behind it? >> what we've been told is in this memo three or four pages of bullet points summarizing a case that the secret fisa wiretap obtained by the fbi and justice department in october of 2016 right before the presidential election targeting carter page, former campaign aide to then mr. trump who had been to russia that summer was based on insufficient information or actually that it used information from christopher steele of the notorious steele dossier. salacious unverified dossier. the memo makes the case nat bi relied on the information which is dubious and didn't tell the judge that steele was paid by democrats to carry out that investigation. therefore misled the judge and therefore this whole thing was improper spying on the trump campaign by fbi agent who were biassed kwens trump. the problem with that memo, we are are told, is that that's not the only thing in the fisa application. there was all kinds of different evid

about the memo itself the campaign is all about the house intelligence committee memo written by devon nunez who is part of the trump transition team it's already been seen by some members of congress is there any good reason why the contents should not be made public public. no no no good public interest reason there is definitely i believe evidence of criminal conspiracy in this memo and frankly the people that should be concerned are hillary clinton and all the democrats and the d.n.c. that took part in trying to undermine election integrity in the united states so there is a good reason why a number of democrats do not want to be seen by the public but for the sake of for the sake of the democratic process in for the sake of openness and transparency we should all see this and in the long run that will be good for everyone concerned what if we look at what the republicans are saying i will representative steve king wrote like he's read the memo it's worse than watergate florida representative matt gates says that if we get this memo into the public square heads are going to roll up the f

the doj, also taking action on the release of that dossier, house intelligence committee chair devon nunezt in a letter obtained by fox news, stephen boyd says it would be reckless to release it publicly. rob: donald trump says his administration has nothing to hide amid reports he will be meeting with robert mueller. jillian: a face-to-face interview would be a, quote, suicide mission, here is why. >> understandable why the president is confident, he knows he has done the wrong but a first year law student would tell you this is an obvious perjury trap, robert mueller is taking advantage of the president's loquacious in this, never suffers from a paucity of words and what is absolutely clear is mister mueller has no evidence of russian collusion so now we cycle back around to the dismissal of mister comey and he seeks to entrap the president in some kind of process crime, perjury or obstruction. under no circumstances should he grant mister mueller an interview. it is a suicide mission. a very clear perjury trap. rob: the best option for avoiding a constitutional crisis would be for muell

and they question the motives of committee chairman devon nunez, a member of his transition team. >>>clear skies giving us a look at the super blue blood moon. we just witnessed the total lunar eclipse moments ago. >> yes it happened six minutes ago. and now we're in the totality. that will last through 6:07. i hear of people pulling over and trying to take pictures. we have our livestream going. so here's a look right now. it is dark according to nasa he's alive stream. you can get a great glimpse of is going on there. this is turning reddish and darker and darker because the official lunar eclipse just happened. and it makes it a little bit darker. and that is from griffith observatory. and the west coast is getting the best view of this right now. and california, hawaii in luck. we have clear conditions making it for great to see. and there's not much fog out there. so as far as the details of this goes, the super blue blood moon occurs once every 152 years. and it has not happened in 152 year. and the next lunar eclipse will not happen till 2019. totality end at 6:07 this morning.

an increasingly out of control frenzy against the fbi, led by california republican congressman devon nunez to try to create alternate scandals that the white house likes better. devon nunes is the guy behind the "they wire tapped trump tower" allegation. he's the guy who tried to make it into an unmasking scandal. susan rice is the real scandal here. devon nunes says the real scandal is uranium one. he's leading the charge against all the senior leadership of the fbi somehow being corrupt and terrible. over the past week, that congressman, devon nunes has led a conservative media and republican full-scale, freakout over a memo. a memo that conservatives insist will be magic antidote to the robert mueller investigation and a get out of jail free card for anybody implicated by the mueller investigation. this was written by devon nunes himself. his office wrote it and he and republicans and conservative media and lots and lots of russian bots online are all now insisting with increasing ferocity that this memo that devon nunes wrote, it must be released, even though it contains classified inf

let's look at what devon nunez and the members of the committee are looking at.to april 2016 when fusion gps was hired by hillary clinton campaign. yes, it was started by the washington free beacon on the conservative side. but that's when the democratic national committee took it over. fast forward to june 27th. july 2nd, hillary clinton is interviewed by the fbi. july 5th, director comey comes out and does something unprecedented in the annals of the fbi. >> unusual for fbi because they do the investigating, not the decision to prosecute. >> extremely unusual. now with the struck page that we do have, if you line them up with that chronology, it is troubling. the insurance policy was talked about in andy mccabe's office. he's a good man. when you read these up, the secret society, we can't let this happen. we have to move to what we talked about in andy's office, those things are troubling. when you look at the five months worth of missing texts, we have from december, the trump transition team. he's elected in november. all the way to may. five months. that is

the memo is a memo that was written by staff members for a republican member of congress named devon nunez. he was also one of the leading voices defending donald trump after the infamous trump tower wire tap tweet. nunez actually had to recuse himself from negotiations because of the interaction with the white house. so the staff wrote this memo, and according to those who have seen it, not many people have seen it outside of congress, it is sort of a cherry-picked assessment of ways that the process of getting a warrant was compromised. it's not clear what that was, but democrats who have seen this and are privy to the contents it's based on say it is basically out of hand, that it's either nonsense or just a partisan list that is meant to sort of stir up emotions. the department of justice has not seen it. they haven't even had a chance to respond to this memo and just sent a letter to nunez today, i believe it was, that called it reckless to even consider releasing this to the public without the department of justice being able to see it, and saying they've seen no evidence of the warr

the biggest question is why won't devon nunez release it to the fbi.cuss former director of national intelligence james clapper. good to have you. let's start with the what is the chance that this memo, in your opinion, can be accurate, that he has proof that you all when you were in there before and after that there were widespread abuses of surveillance to play to political gain for democrats? >> well, chris, it sounds a bit hyp hyperbolic to me and conjures up memories of chairman nunez running around the white house compound and getting all kinds of secret information about alleged unmasking abuses. to my knowledge, there weren't any. so this is sort of the same thing. first, this was not bipartisan. i do find it strange, if he found these profound irregularities in both the bureau as well as the department of justice that he would not have shared that revelation immediately with the trump-appointed director of the fbi director wray as well as attorney general sessions. >> is there any good reason for withholding it? outwardly, it looks like he doe

why did we do that and why were people like devon nunez the ones championing a bill that was clearlyn infringement? >> harris: don't want something to happen on their watch. >> kennedy: look what happened on their watch. the fbi apparently. >> harris: i'm talking terrorism. you don't want to take that tool away. >> kennedy: but there is no separation between terrorism and the ability to spy on american citizens. >> harris: privacy advocates say that you can do both. but it didn't do both last week. b5 rand paul is planning on filibustering that legislation because it is so ill-conceived and so hypocritical to be mad about surveillance in one aspect but turn a blind eye or in another. >> harris: that got to keep the government open this week. >> charles: i totally agree with you. but there is, i don't put people like the people that supported that in the same bucket as using the federal government's powerful spying agencies against political opponents. if there's a huge difference i think. >> harris: they can do both. >> sandra: the president expected to head to southwestern pennsylva

this comes as tension is looming over devon nunez, the republican who stepped aside from the investigation months ago over allegations he didn't handle classified information properly. he has since been cleared by the house ethics committee about his handling of classified information and run his own investigation on the side, looking into the justice department and its relationship with christopher steele, that former british agent who did put together that dossier of trump and russia connections, allegations of these connections. now, wolf, nunes wants the justice department to turn over records by tomorrow over the relationship with the justice department and christopher steele no word yet if the justice department will do that. this is part of a long-running fight that nunes has had with the justice department over this issue, wolf. >> and, manu, all of this comes as a new report suggests the dossier is not what started the russia investigation, right? >> reporter: yeah, that's right. "the new york times" reported over the weekend that george papadopoulos, the trump campaign foreign po

. >> now they're not responding to subpoenas by devon nunez and the intelligence committee.ve the best back stop to corruption or the perception of corruption is complete transparen transparency. i think you'd see the rhetoric toned down if you had more. i want bob mueller to succeed in getting to the truth and that's hampered when you have situations like you have, a lack of response. can you imagine if a member of congress wouldn't respond to the fbi's subpoenas or questions? we just, we need to have this three coequal branches of government working to hold each other accountable and restore confidence. >> you want the mueller probe to continue, but you want him to hand over more information to partisan politicians on capitol hill? >> there's three coequ equaequa branches of government, poppy. the executive branch doesn't have more thart thn the legisla branch. it works best when we hold each other accountable. we cannot very one agency that says we are not going to cooperate with the oversight of congress. >> we appreciate you being here, congressman cramer. let us know i
