you used to work for the doj. wondering -- we were talking about this off-camera -- if you want to enter a guilty plea, you would get into negotiations with the doj and cut some sort of a plea deal where you get the best possible outcome for yourself, and hunter biden's attorneys in the past have proven themselves to be quite astute at crafting plea deals as long as they can slide underneath the radar when it comes to the judge. but by pulling this move today,, you have eliminated the possibility of negotiating any kind of plea deal with the doj. so the only recourse you have left is to plead guilty outright, so yourself at the mercy of the court. >> the more you think about this, abbe lowell is a smart lawyer. i think everyone in washington, d.c., knows that. for the faculty to go in there and aggravate the doj and the judge, which i'm sure they have, there's no way that doj is happy about being jerked around like this all day. it's embarrassing for them. to be frank, it almost feels like they are mocking them at

the doj, this is the first _ come about. yes. the doj, this is the first phase _ come about. yes.s. the doj, this is the first phase of this case i is the first phase of this case and a bench trial starts today and a bench trial starts today and will probably go for four weeks. we will probably get a decision by the end of the year. but the remedies portion will be completely separate trial and if there is liability found the parties will have to argue about what the proper remedy would be. in this particular case, unlike research case, if doj wins its going to be a big change in anti—trust law. part of what they are arguing is that more or less that google has a duty to deal with people and that is never really been a part of us anti—trust law for at least the past 20 years and so there will be big changes and so the impact will be notjust on google and the remedies but if doj wins this case it will be a big change in anti—trust law across all parties in the us. thank you. so the uk now where labour union bosses and members are gathering for the annual conference of the trade uni

that was not in place at the time. >> does it concern you that the doj, that certain doj components like the fbi indefinitely suspend employees without pay for the duration of a security investigation and review process? >> it does, which is also one of the issues we raised in the management memo. >> what is the average length of time for one of those investigations? >> so, we found in the report that for the 106 employees be looked at over a five-year period who had been suspended for more than six months, the average was 527 days. so about 17 1/2 months. >> so about a year and a half. so in your work, have you seen similar delays or similar lengths of time in other agencies? >> we have within the department in other law enforcement components. >> but what concerns me too at least with the pay issue, the doj and fbi's current policy remains in place to remain in a definite state of limbo without pay. >> that is exactly right. and that is the concern, congressman, that actually goes beyond whistleblowers. mr. allen actually was able to resolve and get a settlement because he was a whistl

they report back to doj. you have lisa monaco, one of the people at doj i saw the other day talking about russia russia russia hoax. she's friends with andrew, the whole group, the crew, they should be sued. they are a political organization that goes after trump for the last eight years. he's a sick person that runs that. lisa monaco is at the department of justice. but she's a andrew wiseman person who has been after me for years. so far? he's failed. he's having a heart attack. i'm leaving in the polls, i guess? if you look at the nate silver? respected guy, don't know them. he has me up by a lot. let's say we are leading. tied to what difference? the race is between two people. i think i'm leading by a lot? because the opponent refuses to do an interview because she can't talk. and they are not going to skate through. not going to have a marxist president. the people, people are getting it. so we go down to court today to talk about this case. it's a scam. all i can say is that i never met the woman, othe

the doj has repeatedly said tiktok being in the u.s. while being owned by bytedance, a chinese company, is a national security threat to the united states and that they have also allowed the content that comes out of tiktok to be manipulated in a certain way that sways public opinion. tiktok has repeatedly said is no validity to these claims. that banning the app in the united states would not only violate the first amendment rights of tiktok itself, but the millions of users who use tiktok every day, and that banning a single social media app would be an unprecedented action by the u.s. government. tiktok had been working on a national security solution with the committee for foreign investment of the united states prior to this cell or band bill passing and they keep saying let's go back to that, we were willing to install a really serious data security program to show you that we were serious about american user data, but the effort was ultimately abandoned in favor of this bill and tiktok obviously doesn't want to be banned in the u

i was just complemented news including the fact that under this doj, washington dc, the u.s.lined to prosecute 67 percent of the people who were arrested it however, henry's you vigorously pursuing and prosecuting him a peaceful life protesters in front of an abortion clinic here in washington when they said that all black lives matter and in fact, tragedy to panel here to see said that doj was selectively enforcing the law and that's the court saying that with respect to these conservative pro- by folks in the list goes on and off be girl like talking through it. trey: i wish that we give you know they show but so far they have not to do when they ask you i don't hear much about the case about ration and rachel rylands from u.s. attorney and pick my elizabeth moran and she literally was referred for prosecution by the ig, by the doj management dear jay ij no one pursue the charges yet there dragging jeff thorton during her of the dragging him across the country for failing to erase the memory test and he don't hear anybody talking about his case. >> speaking with it was a gr

florida attorney general ashley moody is asking to deep her in the loop and if doj charges ruth withdential candidate it could put the brakes on her probe and the federal case must go first and she wrote the fbi director and local us attorney to be clear i believe it be a grave mistake for the federal government to invoke this provision and i urge you to cooperate with the state investigation rather than seek to frustrate it all the evidence right now in this case is with the fbi in quantico, virginia and we are told the justice department and it's rare we find out this stuff early but the attorney general and prosecutor in court yesterday in front of ryan ruth said that he's going to be facing this charge of 18 usc-351 which could put him behind bars the rest of his life. david: david ursino reported that so well. there were a lot of issues i wasn't clear about thank you for clarifying them. let's welcome house oversight and accountability chairman james comer. chairman, you think of everything the fbi did to donald trump when he was president. the whole russia collusion hoax, et ce

let me ask about ryan routh, because the up the charges, the doj did come against him. he was charged with possession of a firearm by convicted felon, within obliterated serial number. the adage that attempted assassination of a major presidential candidates as well as some other charges. trump had been critical of the doj for initially filing lesser charges, but those were just to hold him. >> donald trump doesn't have any reason to trust doj in light of how they treated him over the last couple of years, but here i think the department is taking this very seriously. we typically don't hear a lot from attorney general garland. we have been hearing a lot from him about this in the last few days. they brought one of the most serious charges you can bring, attended assassination of a major presidential candidate, which will likely put this man behind bars for life, assumingdm penalties, which i assume they will. and judge cannon will have to agree, which again i assume she will, and only way he would get out of that would have to be some kind of medical reason. >> john: y

i think the doj google case, to me, makes a lot of sense.f the sherman act, which was sort of the phenomenal republican senator from ohio. senator sherman came up with in 1 1980, they took it a few degrees too far with device manufacturers, that narrow point that extended the monopoly power beyond the product through the partnerships that really got them caught in the cross hairs with doj. big fan of that google case. i think the doj is right to have ruled the way they did. >> what would be your remedy on the google case? >> very, very, very hard. i think the government practice is way too incompetent to break anything up. so, i don't know what the solution is. but i do think that they -- that that most likely there should be some major punitive action against google. and nvidia, to me, is just a much, much less clear story on whether there has been true anticompetitive behavior. i haven't been able to see it from my vantage point. >> as an investor in the a.i. space now and we're going to hear apple coming out with the new phone on monday,

i don't recognize the doj that n want to work for.ecause mina is about up, hopefully we can get back to the doj that is political.poi if i am still alive, i will have you back on the show and we can fact.woe that how was that? >> that would be wonderful. o i love that. >> trey: thank you for joining us on a sunday night. >> thank you. >> trey: coming up tim tebow does not set on the sidelines. he took his fight for the hil children on the capitol hill. the heisman trophy winner is next only on "sunday night in america." ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> every single one of those boys and girls are worth it to do whatever it takes, however id takes and whatever we have to do so they can be protected and so that they can be loved and sohoe that maybe they can experience the faith, hope, love they so desperately, desperately love and deserve and need.we as we are talking, they are crying. so we better do more than talk. we had better act because they are waiting. >> trey: welcome back to "sunday night in america." "sunday night in america" if anyone because as

this is biden and harrises doj, she gives her resume many, many times. and you know, as someone who has been there for the adjudication of cases and important ones as an aging of the state, this is on their watch. this is part of their legacy as well. >> tammy: one thing, let's not forget his past in his own political animus, perhaps. he expected to be on the supreme court. and it was the republicans, mitch mcconnell, all of her complaints about mitch mcconnell who stop that, imagine this person, there is a reason why he is not on the supreme court, because he is a part of sin and now that's what we are hearing. all of this, biden/harris administration has been about revenge including merit merrick garland. >> harris: i will go to emily, when you talk about fairness of cases, so on and so forth, i brought up brett kavanaugh and the cases against them and the doj stepped in and investigated the case still in process with the suspect that has been delayed a few times. and our protective forces and government did protect him through a marshall's department.

now, compare that to the biden doj under attorney general mary garland.epartment of justice has bent over backwards to be independent of the white house, and partisan political concerns. they appointed a special counsel , a republican and a trump appointee, to investigate the sitting president handling of classified documents, they prosecuted a string of high- profile democratic officials and family members on a variety of charges. >> today, i am announcing my office has obtained a three count indictment charging senator robert menendez. >> nbc has learned the department of justice is expected to announce an indictment against long-term democratic congressman henry cuellar of texas. >> we are announcing campaign- finance, bribery, and conspiracy charges against eric adams, the mayor of new york city. >> an extraordinary step by the to justice department earlier today, federal prosecutors have indicted president joe biden's sole surviving son, hunter biden, on three criminal counts. >> the biden doj has rescued a sitting democratic senator, a sitting democ

ways to advertise online which it says the doj ignores.ompanies like microsoft, amazon, facebook, tiktok and the streaming services as its competition. it has market dominance because it offers a superior product. this trial which kicks off monday is separate from the doj's case in the online search against google. the judge already ruled google had a monopoly by paying other companies to establish google as the dominant search engine. the judge will have to decide to fix the monopoly, break up that a breakup that is reported. we won't get those details until spring of next year and that's the earliest because we also know that google plans to appeal. stuart: thank you very much indeed. why are we attacking this administration? brian: i'm a skeptic of the ftc. this is a huge power grab. lena con's goal is to grab power. think about everybody and grocery stores and meet companies and airlines. if you run a business they will sue you and say you are a monopoly. what's going to happen as a result? the government will dictate prices and to you

the doj to the prosecutor saying no, we don't accept that. now judge's curse he is in court or has been in court talking about how he believes it should be handled. it looks like they are essentially going to come back tomorrow and the judge will tell us what he thinks of this. one important note martha is at the end of the last session about starting -- about to start in 7 minutes, but at the last session ending, the judge apparently said the court does not need the government's approval to accept the alford plea that doesn't indicate he will take that route and say i'm ignoring the doj objections and i will except the alford plea case closed but it does mean he obviously has that option in mind so it's really interesting point we are at now as he mentioned hunter biden was facing up to 17 years on those nine charges that include three felonies. the question would be if this sort of plea is accepted or if indeed there is a plea deal further down the line now, what sentence he would get and whether of course president biden might pardon him o

so you have a doj that wants to redeem itself and now a doj that feels probably like it's being jerked around by hunter biden steen because they have been, let's be honest. and this alford plea, i have to agree to and the alford plea would be that he pleads guilty but maintains his innocence so i'm not convinced this is not going to go down without a fight. does it mean were not going to get there. going to have some frustrated doj attorneys in court talking to the judge. >> harris: what could the fight look like? he says i'm guilty and you're right, with the alford i guess it's like "i'm not guilty" but i'm going to lie in cim. that doesn't even make sense. >> that's the thing. it's the kind of plea saying that he'll take. given how the doj probably feels they've been treated, this is embarrassing for them to go into court and going to trial and say it never mind, we are not doing this, it's very embarrassing. in addition to the fact that they have messed this case up all along. i'm not saying that they won't get there. this is going to be a back-and-forth in the next two hours. >> ha

have former doj officials who are name checked by the doj now, has been pulled back.hat jack smith is doing there, as i mentioned, the doj now green on the lower right. >> yeah, i love think graphic. what the supreme court did last month is that it said donald trump has immunity for his official acts as president. the question is, are there any official acts in that indictment. what your graphic shows so nicely, yeah, it's one. it's the justice department interference, which was horrendous. to any of us who served at the department of justice, unthinkable that any president would do such a think. that's been wry moved. jack smith in filing his second indictment struck that from the complaint, but at the same time he charged trump with all the other arrows on your document, and didn't have to mention he had the nuclear codes in his pocket when he committed them. i think smith was very careful to refer to trump in those other arrows as a candidate and citizen, which removes him from any supreme court protection. there's a lot more arrows and of course the january 6th co

the doj said yesterday in open court, a stronger charge is coming that could put him behind bars for firearm charges, but it could slow down a state investigation led by florida attorney general ashley moody if he's charged with the attempted assassination of a presidential candidate. actually, they are asking the doj to keep her in the loop while not slowing down her state -- he was in court yesterday smiling, shackled, wearing a blue prison jumpsuit. he appeared engaged and was taking notes. there is a phone call where he apologized to a few my friends his actions. they released a letter on the federal bubble document, saying it's in his hands and in the few words, admit that this was an assassination attempt on the former president. he dropped it off in a box on his friend's house months ago periods friend just opened it and alerted authorities. the authorities say he had six cell phones and a passport in his getaway car. at least one phone had a google search of how to travel from south florida to mexico. also this was -- future trump appearances. if doj brings this attempted ass

interestingly, doj is trying to define that very narrowly.you might see in apps or any ads you might see on social media. whereas google is saying that when companies are trying to make advertisements, they choose among all of he's these and so that's the first big fight we're going to hear is over about market definition and that will make a big difference in the case because it really changes google's market share, depending how you define the market. cheryl: you say there's strange tension they the case though. i want to point this out. you say that the doj claims they're helping publishers but their factual allegationses is that google paid publishers more than others to incentivize them to use the products of google. >> yes, there is a tension there. a lot of the narrative that doj has in how it talks about the case in the public is that google is bad for pub publisher. when you dig into the facts of the case, one of the things they said that google did, they say it's anti-competitive, was they subsidized essentially publishers to get th

when i came back in doj in 2021 after a particular period in the department, i said my mission would be to strengthen those norms as the principles upon whichci the department of justie operates. so he took steps to better protect the department's criminal and civil decisions an legal judgments from partisan or other inappropriate influences. d policies regulating contacts between department personnel and both the white house and congress. we strength and clarified the guidelines for sensitive f.b.i. investigations. we implemented remedial measures to ensure robust compliance with section 702 of the foreign intelligence surveillance act. we updated protections for the press and law enforcement investigations in order to safeguard the essential role that a free press plays in our democracy. we published new policies to guide prosecutorial discretion with respect to charge, pleaing and sentencing. we sup lemed our state secrets privilege policy to ensure that the united states invokes that privilege only when there's genuine risk to national security. and department leadership restated

that's another example of this doj not acting appropriately. only reason that plea deal, which was a joke of a plea deal, was brought, the whistle-blowers exposed the special treatment being given to joe and hunter biden by this deferment of justice. >> john: just to play devil's advocate here -- >> schuyler. >> john: robert menendez had gold bars in his pocket in his closet, but donald trump had classified documents in a closet at mar-a-lago. >> that's right. that's why i say the only exception to these cases, i would say there is some obstruction issues at play in the classified documents. donald trump didn't help himself all in that case. he could have complied. it was easy. it was not a big deal. he made it much harder than he should have and now the case is on appeal. going back to the special counsel issue, what is attorney general garland doing? eight-point special counsel to look at joe biden with his classified document mishandling, and donald trump. one special counsel says, well, i think he's guilty, but his mental faculties are so p

look at the doj joe biden inherited from donald trump.rump's endless, constant attempts to subvert federal law enforcement and converted into a political tool of the president. particularly when you look at the southern district of new york, arguably the most influential federal prosecutors office in the country, the one that indicted eric adams. when trump became president the southern district was run by the u.s. attorney under barack obama and we later learned that trump was regularly calling him to cultivate a personal relationship that made him so uncomfortable he reported it to his bosses at the doj and eventually refused to call the president. less than a day later preet bharara was fired. trump's personal lawyer would brag that he convinced trump to fire him, telling the president, this guy is going to get you. it is a pattern trump would repeat over and over again as president. whether it was firing james comey after trump asked comey to drop the federal investigation into the national security adviser michael flynn or having his

they know that, but it is a scam, but it all goes back to the doj because we had a trial today.t's an appeal of a ridiculous verdict of a woman i have never met, i don't know. i have no idea who she is. she wrote a book and made a ridiculous story of. she put it in her book. we are now appealing the decision. we had an extremely hostile judge appointed by clinton. very good friends of clinton. guess he presided over the marriage ceremony of one of the lawyers on the case against us. and it's very sad. judge lewis kaplan. angry man. he was so angry. i went to the trial. i have been in a lot of litigation over the years. i have never seen such anger. wanted to throw one of our attorneys in jail. he threatened her with jail. nobody has ever seen anything like it. over nothing. nobody has ever -- i have never seen such anger. but all of our judges -- i mean, we had a brilliant judge and i think a very fair judge in florida. i think we have another judge who is very fair. i just ask him -- i don't want anything different from anybody else. i just asked for fairness. we have another j

is this the next answer to that from the doj?t wasn't that long ago that meta's position was it shouldn't be our decision. oversight is still something people haven't come up with a framework for. caroline: oversight of those that don't do any content administration or very little like telegram. the ceo currently holding fast. we will discuss ai in many other ways. we will discuss the brand-new funding round for you.com. this is bloomberg technology. ♪ >> you are looking at a live shot of principal room. check out the bloomberg technology podcast on the terminal. as well as apple, spotify and i heart. caroline: first up, lyft plans to sell some of its bike and scooter business. as the ride-hailing company still focuses on turning profitable prude alibaba will employ checkout via $.10 wechat pay. as the chinese economy struggles for the downturn. the $43 billion giant horowitz ditching miami after building an office braid they left in may because employees were not using it enough. ed: a piece of news in startups and venture capit

the day before the first assassination attempt on donald trump, doj arrested a man with iranian thaisl donald trump. they are aware fbi originating out of iran. the list is lengthy and i think that is why doj, in the last week or so has been coming out more forcefully. i suspect they are worried about iran and the last thing they want is something happening on their walk before this election. >> you have prepared for this. you have prepped for moments like this. what is going on behind the scenes right now? >> attorney general garland, they haven't treated donald trump fairly and they have brought all kinds of untested legal theories against him and most of the cases, which means they are using the law in new ways to charge him and that is why he has such distress of this doj. i know merrick garland is very much opposed to political violence in this country. he is concerned about it. the message he wants to send today and will, we are not tolerating this. we will do everything we can to throw the book at you if you attempt these actions and we have seen him talk, the most we have seen

people familiar say the doj plans to allege these are illegally monopolized the u.s. debit card market. the attorney general announced 2:30 new york time. for more, let's bring in sara forden from washington, d.c. one of the issues is tokenization and the swipe fees. what might we hear later today? >> this is coming out of a years long investigation into their practices in the debit market. visa is the largest payments provider in this market. based on our sourcing, we understand the doj will be looking at agreements he's assigned -- visa signed with other companies including tech rivals to keep them out of the market and extremely onerous pricing penalties with merchants if they steer payments to any alternative debit networks. >> we know mastercard had this issue, the ftc was accusing mastercard of roughly the similar type of behavior visa was accused of. how will they defend itself given a a precedent, with a different regulator? >> our understanding is it is not a case about tokenization as they called that technology. it is a broad monopolization case looking at

and the doj is part of that. so it's unfortunate that he's really he is trying to weaponize public opinion against our own governments. i think it's a good step that the attorney general has taken love to see the doj again, become more aggressive in the way there they're talking about this issue and any other ones as well and i do want to ask you about what's going on down in florida. >> i know that you and other florida democrats in the house are sending a letter to the justice department calling for an investigation it should into a governor ron desantis down there, are a lot of this stemming from what has been going on with amendment for which is a ballot amendment that's going to be coming up this election. can you explain that for us? >> yeah my my colleagues and i lead with debbie wasserman, wasserman schultz in south florida are sending a letter to the doj requesting that they look into an investigate something really serious that's going on in the state of florida, as many people know this year where we'r

>> president trump has every reason to not trust the doj. so i understand why he put out what he did and we look at weather you've just been doing with respect to him in these cases for the last couple of years. but those -- that's not under arrest charges that he is referring to a, that is just a way that the department of justice can attain someone as their gathering evidence to bring back your charges and they said in open court that they are going to bring willie one of the healthiest charges one can bring which is exhibit assassination of a major presidential candidate which would likely put this man in prison for life. and so that -- it was just biding time until the next hearing where they could gather all of this and bring the evidence forth a grand jury. >> martha: sure things that i mentioned before, kerri, you know, he had idle no six cell phones i think at least at a pawn on his car. we know that he went to ukraine to try to be, you know, sort of a foreign soldier for their cause. he talks about iran and the letters in terms of w

so attorney general garland will stress this morning, the doj operates and really an impartial manner that he strives in particular every day to protect the independence of the department from political interference. so sara, this speech is notable because we've seen the attorney general before bond to attacks against his employees. mostly in testimony to congress at various times in response to questions from the press. but this is a specific speech and very forceful, focused on these efforts to slam. he's going to slam these efforts to turn doj into a political weapon and it's a very forceful speech that's really just focused on this, something we really haven't seen him do before. so it's going to be very poignant, especially for the employees he's addressing who have sustain these threats and attacks. sara and i know you will be watching as well. >> we jessica schneider. thank you so much for your reporting this morning. john alright. >> extra security for a peaceful transition. the secret service confirms when congress will get the full weight of the federal government behind the

according to the doj. its surrogates to spring content on all those issues, you know, that's what we're supposed to say? but, again, these are the issues important to most american people. look at the polls, conservatives are going to talk about these issues because these issues matters to the american people. joining us now missouri senator jojosh hawley. senator, it's so obvious what is happening here. if you believe that we're spending too much money in certain areas of foreign policy. i guess you are part of the russia, russia, russia interference? >> this is the third straight presidential election, laura, that they have tried this. nobody believes this stuff. this isn't about foreign interference by russia. >> this is a smoke screen for domestic interference by our deep state and the democrat party. this is the same play that they have run for years. 2016 the fbi used this playbook in order to interfere in our election that year. lie to a court. get wiretaps on trump. and launder it through the media

and doj team that was investigating mar-a-lago and classified documents there.er whether to investigate whether to carry out a search opinion one of the fbi officials said it will play into the deep stake conspiracy and doj said we tried to get the documents and he defied the subpoena and there was a bitter acrimony between the two groups and that's alarming. normally, you know, the people work together well, but you had the kind of suspicion and hyperpartisanship that, you know, is so life in the politics now, slowing down and delaying an investigation. >> was the fbi hesitant because they feared donald trump or because they sided with him politically? >> no, it was i want to be fair to the people involved here. they feared the impact on the fbi itself. the main person who was concerned about this, head of the washington field office said we are playing into trump's mo if we go in and search mar-a-lago. and that person wanted to wait a little longer and in the end the deputy head of the fbi said there is probable cause carry out the serve. let me be clear, all

of doj, obviously, and we've been working together for decades now to again be preventative and bring criminals and bad actors to justice. i think that's consistent multiple sometimes through iterations of leadership in both the department and the agency and it's stronger than ever today. we work hand in hand, day in, day out, most importantly in the field. you know, 56 field offices around the country and we have hundreds of sub offices and the partnership that our agents have with the assistant united states attorneys that staff the u.s. attorney's offices, you know, in building investigations and bringing cases, again, is foundational to the work that we do to have the impact to, again, protect and support victims and be preventative by bringing criminals to justice so that they can't do further harm, and we're thoroughly embedded in that regard. we're working hand in hand, day in, day out, across the country with those offices, to do the investigations and that's supported by the work we do here in the nation's capital and from fbi headquarters. i always say our role from the head

meanwhile, the doj case against those hamas leaders is a big step, but it is seen as largely symbolic. >> these actions will not be our last. >> reporter: attorney general merrick garland with a stern warning after the justice department unsealed federal charges against six senior hamas leaders for the killings of at least 43 americans on october 7th. garland says the department is also investigating the deaths of americans including 23-year-old hersh goldberg-polin as acts of terrorism. the 23-year-old was one of the six hostages found killed in gaza over the weekend. >> we will pursue the terrorists responsible for murdering americans, and those who illegally provide material support for the rest of their lives. >> reporter: the doj says yahya sinwar and a group of other senior hamas figures financed, directed, and oversaw a campaign to murder u.s. citizens and endanger u.s. national security, alleging this group orchestrated the killings and kidnappings. three of the defendants are dead. the others haven't been captured. in tel aviv, another round of massive protesters as thousands

all of that, to me, seems like a politicize ised doj. what say you?ink what we just heard was a full truckload of what my friend larry gatlin would call bovine droppings. [laughter] this is absurd for him the talk about the normses of the doj. s this is the doj that had to get d.c.-based attorneys because the local u.s. attorney wouldn't file charges against the 75-year-old grandmother. they went to her house with a s.w.a.t. team, they put her in prison. you have all of these cases where this is a justice department that goes after conservatives, proof life christians, people they don't like. they call moms who show up at a school board to protest what's happening to their children terrorists, and yet they -- ashley: that's right. >> -- away when joe biden has boxes of records he wasn't supposed to have in his garage next to his corvette. ashley: yep. >> and when they don't protect supreme court justices who are being threatened with assassination. ashley: governor, we're going the to leave it there. we're going to have to leave it, i'm -- >> i almost

if you can not speak to that, what nowed in of the doj?so mentioned that there seem to be camps, pro-trump and anti- trump which is not something we think of with the justice department. >> yes, one of the beginning part, before the search in mar- a-lago, they are worried. they think if they do it will play in trump's, one guy said mo. his conspiracy theory, the fbi is victimizing him. another camp of doj officials and more senior officials like we have to do this. he has had all of these chances. it got to the point where one part of the group is looking at the other group's political donations. hyperpartisanship. >> extends inside >> it is seeping inside law enforcement investigations. i just want to emphasize, i did not find anyone who was wildly pro-republican or pro-democrat, they take their duty seriously. they try to be nonpartisan. i found like for our democracy to function we need nonpartisan. counting elections fairly and judges and police and journalists that are nonpartisan and presenting facts. the problem now is that the publ

so it looks like the doj has got to sign off on this. given the sensitivity of the case, would it have to be garland who signs off on it? if so, does garland stick with his prosecutors and say, what is this? or does he side with the president and sign off on it? >> so tricky, because the president has said as regionally to my recently as yesterday, he's a private citizen, the president is not going to get involved. we were suppose to be starting jury selection today. but when you get to this, a couple things. hunter biden is now a convicted federal criminal under the earlier trial, under gun charges. he will be sentenced in november. it will be more lenient because he's a first-time offender. should he then get convicted in this case, if it were to go to trial, the sentencing would be tougher. do not going to be a first-time offender at that point. so that's something he's got me thinking through. remember, too, the judge put out an order last week about all the evidence prosecutors wanted to bring in, about prostitutes and paying for se

and if you can't speak to that, what now inside the doj?ow but there seem to be camps, protrump and anti-trump, which is not something we think of when we think of the justice department. >> one of the beginning sections of the book is about this pivotal meeting that begins with the search at mar-a-lago. officials they think if they do it it's going to play to as one guy said trump's m. o. there's another camp of doj officials and other more senior fbi officials like we have to do this, we've had all these chances, and it got to the point where one of the group was looking at the other group's like political donations. so this hyper-partisanship. >> extends inside. >> is seeping inside law enforcement investigations. and i just want to emphasize i didn't find anyone who was wildly prorepublican or pro-democrat. they take they are duty really seriously. they try to be nonpartisan. we need nonpartisan public servants, election folks who count votes fairly, we need journalists nonpartisan and presenting facts. and the problem now is that the p

the doj called to the stand two executives from competing ad tech firms to google who testified thatt difficult for them to play in this space, but google's attorneys on cross-examination pointed out that both companies saw more than 20% revenue growth on an annual basis, and internal google documents show google considers the ad tech market to be highly saturated competing with the likes of amazon, facebook, apple, verizon, comcast and a whole bunch more. google attorneys have also showed documents from google's competitors describing the market as intensely competitive, so liz, that's seemingly undercuts the argument from the doj that google is the only game in town. obviously, you've seen google stock this week, still up on the week despite this ongoing trial. liz? liz: grady trimble thank you very much. sitting on the edge of your seat kind of thing, many ramifications. the stock up just about 2% right now. clean-up and recovery efforts are well underway in louisiana after hurricane francine tore through the state on wednesday. at this hour, there are still several thousand peopl

this was an all hands on deck event for doj.national security vision. it is a prosecution designed to send a message to people that if engage in this sort of contact, doj is looking. i think it is significant that these people may believe they can act with impunity in the dark corners of the dark web and not be detected by law enforcement at this indictment says to the contrary, doj can see you. doj will prosecute you. >> joyce vance, my friend, i know we do not have chickens but i appreciate you being here and thanks for being here. >> no clock this morning. >>> supreme concerns. new polling revealing just how unpopular the supreme court is with voters and the growing i partisan support for just how long justices can last. we will break that down coming up next. next. scout, weld, stack, feed, pull, load, tow! drop, and haul, all in a single day, then you just have to get in the seat of the new john deere gator™ xuv. learn more at your john deere dealer. ♪ [suspenseful music] trains.

look at what our doj and ftc are doing? trying to kill all of the innovators.tuart: looking at the market seeing up 380 on the dow jones industrial average what's next? we have something on harris here? please, ladies and gentlemen? he asks -- all right next one. it's you, brian, a little pause in the action. brian: i like that. it's suspense full actually. stuart: kamala harris, this morning, kamala harris was asked about the debate tomorrow night. here's what she had to say. >> i mean, he, um, he plays from this really old entire playbook, where there's no floor for him in terms of how low he will go, and we should be prepared for that. we should be prepared for the fact that he is not burdened by telling him the truth and we should be prepared for the fact that he is probably going to speak a lot of untruth but, you know, i expect he's going to, i think he's going to lie. stuart: that's the tactic. brian: burdened by having to tell the truth. she uses that word burden every third sentence. what is the deal with that? it's a great way, if you don't want to de
