before turning to the fbi budget, the fbi's budget request for this fiscal year, i want to express my condolences at the loss of two agents in february of this year. shortly after their deaths, i met with special agents and staff at the miami field office and it was apparently to me that both those individuals were highly regarded. they were considered friends and family. so i express my deepest sympathies to the entire fbi bureau family. laura and daniel are heroes. and our country should always remember them as such. in regard to the budget that is before us, director, the fbi is requesting 10.2 billion for salaries and expenses in fiscal year 2022. this amount is $465 million, or about 4.8% above fiscal year' 21 that was enacted. more than two-thirds of that amount is for inflationary loss. perhaps i'm making a statement if you want known. it includes employee benefits and rental space. the fbi is only requesting $151 million in programming increases. these will bolster the fbi's capacity to execute the mission. while employees and staff and space are important, there are a lot of

for the fbi. he answered questions about the january 6th attack on the u.s. capital, violent crime rates, gun background checks on other issues. >> >> i think it must be year director, dismayed he's not always this quiet. so, good afternoon. i apologize again for being late. i'm delighted to open this appropriation subcommittee hearing with fbi director christopher wray. we are very pleased to have you here, and look forward to our conversation. i will just point out before we go into the hearing that we are going to take members and anybody who arrives after the gavel in order of arrival, and then everyone is appearing in person, or not having anybody appear remotely. so, thank you all very much for joining us this afternoon. and -- we will begin. director wray, the fbi continues to be the gold standard for law enforcement agencies worldwide. we count on the more than 35,000 men and women of the fbi to protect our country from violent criminals. terrorists, and foreign agents who meanest great ha

to what extent does anyone know within the fbi people in the fbi part of their history or was that storyand you're trying to bring it up for more people to hear? >> the fbi has taken notes of, as you know they have got a website where you can put up all kinds of interesting details about the fbi's history. john fox over in the fbi's making great efforts in this regard. if you look at the section on through he is mentioned. is mentioned as a person who was dismissed with prejudice in that is crazy in his dismissal notes. j edgar hoover something like an dishonorable discharge from the armed forces. dismissed with prejudice. i have communication and i said now that we know more about the accounts on the fbi website can be fortified a little bit. >> okay, i look forward to looking at that page. strikes me as a really fascinating figure. he has done all of these amazing things. he spoke seven languages, he may or may not have been in the french foreign legion, he had the kidnapping case. on if you sense of demand. why would somebody has done such amazing things and you described him as a tan

so that it's not the fbi and the fbi alone acting solely upon the fbi's internal guidance documents frombi could of course choose to depart at any moment. i'd love to see reforms in this area. and in particular, to protect the civil liberties of the american people. i think we need some reforms to our domestic surveillance tools including things like fisa that would apply to strengthening the amicus provisions of the fisa court, requiring the fbi to disclose all material, exculpatory evidence that's presented to the fisa court. no less important here than in an article iii court sitting in its capacity adjudicating criminal cases. in fact, if anything, it's more important here because in the fisa context, it's not public. increasing the standard for warrants under section 215 to require probable cause and requiring a probable cause warrant to obtain internet search history, internet browsing history, and geolocation information. are those reforms that you'd be willing to support? director wray: well, senator, i'd be happy to work with you to provide sort of operational assessment of the

fbi? tucker, you may remember that we had the fbi address in front of the judiciary committee. i asked him what happens in the state of alaska. their door was kicked in. they were handcuffed. held at gunpoint and interrogated for four hours. they want even in the capital. so i've been pressing for those answers to those kind of questions as well. but the fundamental question is why wasn't there a proper security presence that particular day?so again, only the speaker of the house can answer that question. what i find interesting is i have it right here.at political headline. the dance except mccarthy's pick. they accepted that everything was fine. it was reported. last night ago on your network and i made these very points. i talked about this. suddenly, shazam, a the speaker changes everything.ly mr. banks and mr. jordan can't be on the committee. so maybe that's the reason. maybe she just doesn't want to answer that fundamental question or anyju other questions. this is all political and

public reporting has indicated that neither agency, dhs or fbi, produced a threat report, that the fbi did not produce a joint intelligence bulletin, and the dhs did not produce a threat assessment ahead of january 6. and the former police chief has said that representatives from these agencies indicated they did not have any new intelligence to share at a meeting before the day of the attack. but the insurrectionists who attacked the capitol came prepared for war. as we heard last week. they brought radios, they brought climbing gear, and they brought weapons. so we need to hear from the federal agencies about what was known and when, what was done in response to these foreboding online threats, and how information was shared with the law enforcement partners who depend on them. we need to also understand why, with all the information that was available, the decision to reinforce local police with the national guard was not made ahead of time. now that decision was made, or maybe i should say not made, by the former house and senate sergeant at arms, who have in fact, resigned. nevert

tonight, the fbi just issuing a statement, saying the actions of certain fbi employees are inexcuse blg. and this question -- how many young women were assaulted after the fbi was notified? pierre thomas standing by tonight. >>> there are reports of a tornado on the ground as we come on the air. the potential for more severe storms in the heartland and the northeast. and, of course, the massive fires burning out of control in the west tonight. >> an entire community in washington state evacuated. residents running for their lives. matt gutman and senior meteorologist rob marciano on the worsening situation. >>> was iran planning to kidnap an american citizen here in new york city? tonight, four iranian operatives charged. federal prosecutors on the plan to capture the woman, whisk her away to venezuela and then bring her back to iran. martha raddatz reporting. >>> the major nfl star charged. what we've learned. >>> breaking news involving britney spears tonight and her fight to control her own finances. what the judge has just decided. >>> and your health tonight. the new study on walki

so this was the sort of maiden voyage of the fbi, but the fbi is well acquainted with how to run tipmation once it is received. what they did here, yasmin, was they took it, they declined to investigate it, and they gave it to the white house, specifically the white house counsel's office which was then led by don mcgahn. so, you know, when the fbi sets up a tip line and solicits citizens to provide information relevant to whether judge kavanaugh was suitable or not to serve as a supreme court justice, the citizens who took the fbi up on that offer had every right to expect that the information would be handled professionally, responsibly, and it would be diligently investigated. now what we came to learn in a recent letter from the fbi is it went uninvestigated. it was given over to the white house counsel's office, and, yasmin, we know the white house was going to get brett kavanaugh confirmed by any means necessary. so it looks like at a minimum the fbi was sort of used as a shield to, you know, help donald trump get to where he wanted to be on this supreme court nomination. >> ok

tonight we expose the growing rot inside the fbi. remember the fbi?ember that once esteemed law enforcement institution that tried to tell us that justice was blind and that justice would seek the truth and treat everyone equal under the law? yeah, whatever version of that fbi that may have once existed it exists no more. and has been replaced with a cabal of entrenched washington operatives committed to carrying out the bidding of democrats, the deep state, and committed to demolishing anyone who gets in their way, not that i have an opinion, right? as we now have growing evidence that is the fbi itself who are inciting that which they claim to be preventing. for example, we recently learned that of the 14 beam indicted in the plot to kidnap michigan governor gretchen whitmer, at least five were working as informs for the fbi. was this more sting or set-up. and, of course, at the explosive revelations we already know surrounding the fisa abuse scandal and years long russia hoax that sought to undermine the trump presidency. take a less partisan examp

>> first of all, it was great work by the fbi, the fbi has prioritizing currency enforcement issues over last several months so this isn't something that just happened one fine morning, this is something fbi put a lot of resources into, trained agent as developed partnership with the private sector to trace payments across the block chain so the fact that the fbi was able to recover substantial proceeds from the corneal pipeline is a credit to the work of the agent of the fbi. i will also say there were some breaks that went their way. number one, criminals demanded payment for client and folks might know for quite is traceable on a publicly distributed measure. but other crypto currencies harder to trace, but quite is something law enforcement with appropriate tools so the fact that the fbi was able to recover those payments is a combination of great detective work from a hard-working agent and a little bit of luck. i will say, i saw an article in the financial times earlier today that increasingly criminals are demanding payment and other forms of crypto currency which are a little mor

the fbi has demoted one, is waiting for response from the fbi's office of professional responsibilitynow for criminal charges to be filed. he says that there has to be accountability. and he tells me that otherwise what you're telling the fbi field offices you can do whatever you want. now, john, the big question is why, right? why would they hold this? these three minors said they would talk back in 2015 to the fbi. first of all, they only talked to one. they did not talk to all three. couple of handwritten notes. here is also what's in the report which is interesting, the head of the field office in indianapolis was just about to retire. and it talks about in that report a meeting at a bar that he had with the head of usa gymnastics. he wanted a position with the u.s. olympic committee that was open right then and the report states he knew that the head of usag would put in a good word for him. what does that have to do with all of this, john? because there has to be a motive, right? >> i got to say, such a disservice to all of these young women. they were not served by justice. jus

a real credit to the work of the agents at the fbi.ill also say that there were some breaks that went their way. the criminals demanded payment in bitcoin. bitcoin is traceable on a publicly distributed ledger, unlike certain other cryptocurrencies, which are a little bit harder to trace. bitcoin is something that law enforcement, with the appropriate tools, and if breaks go their way, can trace. so the fact the fbi was able to recover those payments is a combination of great detective work and a little bit of luck. i will say, in fact, i saw an article in "the financial times" today that increasingly, criminals are demanding payment in other forms of cryptocurrency which are more difficult to trace because they're not found on a public block chain in the way bitcoin is. they don't. that's where a lot of the energy of cyber criminals is going to move. and governments are what you have to deal with that new trend, as well. sam: last question for you, there's naturally been a resurgence in the debate of whether to ban payments of ransom,

sujit: first of all, great work by the fbi. the fbi has been prioritizing cryptocurrency enforcement over the past several months. this isn't something that just happened one morning. this is something the fbi has put resources into, has trained agents, developed partnerships with the private secretary to trace payments across the block chain, so the fact the fbi was able to recover substantial proceeds from the colonial pipeline ransomware is a credit to agents at the fbi. i will also say there were some bricks that went their way. the criminals demanded payment in bitcoin. bitcoin is traceable on a publicly distributed ledger, unlike certain other cryptocurrencies, which are harder to trace. bitcoin is something that law enforcement, with appropriate tools and if breaks go their way, can trace. the fact the fbi was able to recover those payments is a combination of great detective work and a little bit of luck. i saw an article in "the financial times" today that increasingly, criminals are demanding payment in other forms of

real credit to the work of the agents at the fbi.so say there were some breaks that went their way. number one, the criminals demanded payment in bitcoin and as folks might know bitcoin is actually traceable on it publicly distributed ledger. unlike certain other crypto crunchies which are harder to trace, bitcoin is something that law enforcement with appropriate tools and again if the brakes go that way, can trace. the fact the fbi was able to recover those payments is a combination of great detective work, very hard-working agents, and a little bit of luck. i will say i saw an article just in the financial times earlier today that increase the criminals are demanding payment and other forms of crypto currency which are more difficult to trace because they are not found on a public blockchain in way that bitcoin is. stay tuned, i think that's were a lot of the energy of these cyber criminals is going to move and governments are going to have to deal with that new trend as well. >> yeah, and last question for you. there's naturally

while i was there as well, i walked up to the fbi s.w.a.t. team that courageously entered that building and rescued the capitol building and offered assistance tonc them. individuals on that team have my personal phone number. yes, i was carrying my firearm because i was credentialed dea agent. i'm expected to. my brother is a credentialed fbi agent and he was carrying a firearm. everyone was safer that day because both of us had our firearms. i do not think the informant i brought to the rally that day was malicious or trying to entrap me in any way, shape, or form. but i think we are just trying to do the best he could with what we had. it was chaos. we went there with the intention to protect the public. >> tucker: the fbi knew that he was there. they could see that he knew he was there and we will let our viewers reach their own conclusions on that basis. do you believe there are many other people in the crowd that day who had made contact with the fbi? >> not that i have seen. but again, i went there with the intention to protect the pub

extremist group, acting under the direction of the fbi. leading roles in the scheme. an iraq war veteran became second in command there. and this long time government informant from wisconsin paid for the hotel rooms and for dinners just to get people to join this alleged blot. this undercover fbi agent known as red advised this militia group where to place the explosives which they said were fake. then the lead fbi special agent, richard task figure. he was the public face of this whitmer case. he was just arrested after being accused of jumping on his wife in bed and smashing her head against the wall. and this was in a dispute over a swingers party. the people accused of this kidnap plot are claiming they were entrapped. anybody would claim that in a situation like this. but "buzzfeed" is reporting there are twice as many fbi agents involved in this plot man there were plotters. does this raise suspicion with you? >> it raises a lot. i regard what the biden administration is currently doing as the second war on terror. this one is focus

the scathing new report on the usa gymnastics sex scandal involving larry beil larry nassar what the fbi is accused of failing to do >>> nfl superstar richard sherman arrested for domestic violence what his manager is saying tonight >>> our exclusive top democrats unveiling a new push to legalize marijuana at a federal level. can this go anywhere >>> and breaking news on britney spears, back in court and speaking out the judge handing the pop star a victory in her conservatorship battle >> announcer: this is "nbc nightly news" with lester holt >> good evening. we thought by now the worst was firmly behind us, but america's summer of recovery from covid is rapidly becoming a season of dread and frustration over americans who remain unvaccinated and highly vulnerable to the delta variant, which now more than half of new covid cases in this country. after weeks of growing confidence amid falling infection rates, a dramatic turn about under way tonight. infections, hospitalizations and deaths climbing again. crowded emergency rooms in some parts of the country fueling a sense of deja vu the

because it's the fbi.ped in all of those field offices with all of those people, them sending an e-mail or picking up the phone and just saying this is going on. there are children in danger. >> and doing the proper followup. it turns out that some of the accusers, the fbi agents didn't even call them. they knew there were multiple accusers and didn't, i don't know, make the time, expand the investigation to even talk to them. what does that tell you? >> it tells us they don't care a smidge about us. as an elite athlete, i can definitely tell you your worth is your competitive results and what they can get from that. i over i've had to deal with a lot of side effects from this entire saga, but there have been a few people that stood behind us and helped ups s move forward. senators blumenthal and moran were exceptional. they believed us and made it seem like we weren't crazy. everybody else is troyi trying e it feel like you're the one who's crazy. they lie all the way through in every part of this investi

mollie hemingway, given the fbi's track record.oliticizing investigations, stop with donald trump and now with this, in this case, looks like a sham set up, perhaps we should have suspected this all along and should continue to ask tough questions about other things, other big issues. >> i think people who have been following how the fbi disrupts so-called terrorist plots had an idea that this might be the case because this has been the standard operating procedure really going back to the global war on terror where the fbi would encourage disaffected lonely young muslim men to do something and then arrest him once he agreed to take part in a pot. it's not good, you should never agree to do anything bad, even if you're being led by a roll or by an fbi agent, but that's a big difference than actually detecting threats and disrupting them, and we have had so many instances in recent years wheree who ended up shooting up a school or causing another mass murder where they didn't do anything, and meanwhile, they are the bulk of these pl

additionally indianapolis fbi later said they referred to the case to lansing michigan fbi where so manys they did not do that. so for over a year nothing was done on the allegations against larry nasser because the only law enforcement agency that knew about hims with the fbi in indianapolis and they did nothing. and during that year, the report states, more than 70 young athletes were allegedly sexually assaulted by nasser. john manly who is the attorney for so many victims tells me at this point there is actually 120 women allegedly sexually assaulted from 2015 to 2016 while the fbi was silent. the inspector general confirmed in his report that materially false statements were made by a special agent during the inspector general interviews, that the field office provided incomplete and inaccurate information in response to internal fbi inquiries. they did not forward the allegations to other fbi agents. the attorney for former indianapolis field officer special agent in charge john abbott does tell cnn mr. abbott has received a review copy of the report and thanks the law enforcement

fbi informants were not just integral to the plot, they ended up hatching the entire thing.rding to those feet acting under the direction of the fbi did more than passively observe and report on the actions of the suspects. instead they had a hand in every aspect of the alleged plot starting with this conception but it gets even worse, the fbi at the center of the plot was just accused of jumping on his wife in bed and smashing her head against the nightstand after a dispute stemming from a swingers party that occurred. this happened on monday and just reported stay. molly hemingway, senior editor of the federalist fox news contributor, given the fbi track record of politicizing investigations, we saw with donald trump and now with this in this case being what looks like a sham set up, perhaps we should have suspected this all along and continue to ask tough questions about other big issues. >> people who have been following how the fbi disrupts terrorist plots had an idea this might be the case because this has been the standard operating procedure going back to the war on

of course i'm under fbi protection. but what i want biden's administration to do, take a strong action. we don't really need empty words, especially when they said that this is the law enforcement. it just broke my heart because this is not called law enforcement, jake. this is called kidnapping. and the islamic republic actually challenging the authorities, the u.s. authorities and saying that we have the power to actually come to your land, to your own soil and harass your journalist, spy on your citizen. and now we have to actually see biden himself, the president biden actually condemn that strongly. >> yeah. i want to play a little bit more sound from the white house press secretary jen psaki today. take a listen. >> it's actions to attempt to silence the voices of those peacefully working to address the situation both inside of iran and outside of iran that are appalling. we'll continue to speak out against that. but at the same time we still see in u.s. interest and in our national interest to engage in ongoing d

what was the relationship with the fbi? mr.itchie: that 1000 pages was a big asset for me in writing the book. every sunday night they made some agentless into the radio show to report to hoover every monday morning -- every sunday night they made some agent listen to the radio show to report to hoover every monday morning. when i saw was in 1935 when the fbi was being formed the justice department was worried the public was more enamored with gangsters like john dillinger and others and not with the government agents so they called in pearson and his partner and said, what can we do? they said, you have to build up the public relations of the fbi on the column began to promote j edgar hoover's career as a super g-man. he liked that and reciprocated by providing information from the fbi. if they came across a claim they could not substantiate, they would show to the fbi. in some cases the fbi would go investigate. that's how many members of congress ended up in jail. the fbi followed up on a column that pearson had published. w

the report also concluded that indianapolis former fbi special agent in charge jay abbott violated fbiolicy when he communicated with former usa gymnastics president steve penny about a potential job opportunity with the u.s. olympic committee while continuing to discuss the nassar allegations. >> when girls came forward and told an adult, the adults didn't listen. >> larry nassar, i hate you. >> reporter: after hundreds of victims testified, information officer is now serving what amounts to a lifetime in prison. >> the only person that is in jail at this time is larry nassar, and it's very clear that he's not the only one responsible for this happening. >> reporter: abbott retired from the fbi in 2018 and the justice department declined to prosecute him. abbott's lawyer says that his client hopes the courageous victims of nassar's horrible crime find peace. >> jeff, thank you. >>> ahead and only on "cbs this morning," we will talk to former team usa gymnast and nassar victim, survivor jessica howard, about the report and the fbi investigation. >>> south africa is calling out thousand

>> yeah, this to me is classical really good fbi work. they had a threat, they developed enough probable cause to introduce an undercover agent to try to determine what they were up to. you know, if you remember the days of the michigan militia, i hate to say it as a guy from michigan, but they were of the same mindset. they didn't believe in the government, they didn't believe in law enforcement, they didn't believe in those things. as a matter of fact, the only law enforcement official they believed in was the elected sheriff. they thought that was the only form of law enforcement that they could respect. and so there's this ideology surrounding who these folks were. and so social media, again, and the internet allows them to believe that there's a lot more of them than there may be and it affirms their beliefs. i'm not the only one that believes we should do something about this and our government is bad and we should do something about it. so i don't doubt that they had an original bible study group, if you will, and did have those ki

my next guest calls the fbi investigation laughable.ning me now, ruth markus, "washington post" deputy editorial page editor. ruth, good to have you back on the broadcast. i'm curious what your understanding is of how the investigation went down. what do you know? >> well, it is not a surprise. we knew all along that this was a shoddy and constrained investigation that the fbi did, that was evident at the time, but this is proof positive really of just how shoddy and constrained it was. i think it is important for viewers to understand that the alarming thing here is not that there were 4,500 tips, because we all know there's a lot of folks with time on their hands and maybe active imaginations. so i don't think there were 4,500 relevant tips. but what were the relevant tips? how many were there? what was the standard for sending them to the white house, and why -- and i'm absolutely confident that the white house did absolutely nothing with them. it was -- this tip line was a funnel to nowhere, and that's -- i did use the word laughabl

here in the fbi has got it. the fbi says, well, we would like you to rejoin the group but this time with us sitting on your shoulder watching and advising. which he does, and before too long, because he is a training soldier everyone is like oh, your great, you could help us. so he becomes the second in command, and then brings this group in michigan and is there when they connect with groups around the country including a man from michigan coup leaders identified as the leader of the plot to kidnap the governor. so the sort of -- but the subject of these tax here, people in this plot allegedly have claimed essentially they were entrapped. the fbi agents crawling all over them, pushing them to do things. it was like idle chatter, it was the informants pushing it forward, and there is no precedent for this in a lot of more -- than once that i covered, there's infamously a guy who had someone ask him to's cellmate surface to air missile, and both of them are fbi informants and he ended up being prosecuted by chris

i was hoping to have fbi director christopher wray to address the unanswered questions about the fbi's actions. i sent him multiple invitations, and even rescheduled this hearing twice, but he declined to appear. however, i'm pleased to announce he has agreed to appear before this committee in june. i look forward to his testimony then. our final guest today is christopher miller. he led the department of defense on january 6. when the capitol building came under siege, the capitol police were badly outnumbered. the world looked to the department of defense to protect our government from the attack. yet dod did not authorize the deployment of d.c. national guard troops until nearly four hours after local officials first pled for help. even though we were under full-scale assault, dod hesitated until vice president pence, not president trump, gave the order to "clear the capitol." dod's explanations of its own actions have failed to address critical questions. why did military leader's place unusual restrictions on commanders on the ground? mr. miller says he first learned the mob had e

so some of those fbi agents by entering and exiting her password too many times.that obstruction of justice? is that falsifying or transferring and i hope the justice allows us to get aggressive after we chased dr. fox of whistle-blower that we heard of during the trump administration. >> jason: i doubt it, i had a front row seat and i watched that there were documents that were requested, not only the irs case but also in the clinton case, benghazi and all those sorts of a things. but never the mind of the subpoena and we will see if senator is johnson & johnson get with their demand, and it should be your us look at. the congress 182018 were midterms. there were a lot of things that were flowing out the door. i didn't part the department of justice. because they have all kinds of allegations that sounds like it turned out to be totally worded. there's an atmosphere there that affected the 2018 midterms. >> that's exactly right. at the point is real simple. if the excuse for not going forward -- a book we are talking search warrants, grand jury subpoenas. they pr

this plot that was the fbi's plot in the first place.tee should be asking between the weeping is: what role did the fbi have in terms being imbedded in the 3 groups they claim plotted this attack on the capitol? did they allow it to go forward. the fbi admitted we need citizens in fear to increase our budget and surveillance authorities. the one relevant questions about january 6th that hasn't been answered is the one that the media anden the congress declard off-limits to ask. >> tucker: they hate it. in fact, republican members of congress were given instructions by the leaders not to push the fbi. mind blowing. we should push. glenn, great to see you. >> good talking to you, tucker. all of these people are sitting in jail for non-violent offenses 7 months ago on january 6th. one thing the doj won't investigate is the thousands of people who died in nursing homes. in states controlled by governors. oh, deliberately undercounted, thes deaths. one journalist is not giving up the investigation. the only journalist left in michigan. he wil

>> i was not the one that reported to the fbi. the fbi investigation was happening in 2015.d an official investigation, they never transferred the report to the proper department and then the head of the fbi office wined and dined with steve penny rather than investigate. the fbi did no until 2017, 18 months after what larry was doing. what i think is most notable and this is what happened yesterday is we got a spotlight on a story survivors know too well. it is not abnormal for law enforcement to not pursue an investigation, not do an investigation well or be a part of collusion or collection with an abuser or abusive institution. this is why as was reported in 2019, 230 rapes reported to the police, five to six resulted in criminal jail time. the answer that survivors face, why don't you come forward or if you told the truth, law enforcement would have done something. the answer to that question is found in the fbi report yesterday. people tasked with protection don't often protect and there's no means of accountability when they do what they're supposed to do. that leads

we've had a great working relationship with the fbi.hink it's a whole of intelligence approach, not specifically just the fbi, when we have something as significant as what occurred here at the us capitol. if there's specific information out there that our government is responding to, i would think that something of that nature would rise to the level of more than just an email sent to law enforcement agencies. that should be a larger, more involved conversation about specifics, not just some of the unvetted raw information that's out there. we see a lot of that, but i think it's more of a whole intelligence approach and that specifically the fbi. they are great partners to the metropolitan police department. senator warner: thank you. let me just i don't know if any of the other panel members want to add any comment on that. let me just say that this is my concern is that in virginia, we've seen these kinds of anti-government extremists take to the streets of charlottesville in 2017, resulting in the death of heather heyer. we see the

the fbi has no credibility on this stuff.ebody within the fbi. >> there you go, i think we are done but absolutely right, and i love emily's approach, but i have to say i would disagree with her. i think this will happen again. i think that this is a clear example of why so many women do not report the actual assault. the first woman to accuse nasser publicly has made that point on her twitter feed, that this is really why when you do report, authorities themselves don't take you seriously and at the fbi, this is not from 30 or 40 years ago, this is 2015 and 16. we shouldn't need a procedure so that a man knows the deal properly without committing. >> jason: i have no options, i've got to get out of this, stay with us on this special edition of hannity after this break. if you have diabetes, you should wear a dexcom. i'm on this one because it's the best. and because it works. it's easy to wear. you put it on, and the numbers are there. no fingersticks. i can't say that enough. the dexcom is a game changer. lively hearing aid
