when you talk about in your latest article that mueller was hauled before the fisa court, the very fisaourt that he is in a position as special counsel to oversea what comey, his pal and the rest of them did, i say this is truly the fox watching the hen house. tell us what happened? >> it's important for this reason. remember when devin nunes started asking questions about fisa and some of the people being targeted? james comey, rod rosenstein said the process is so aggressive and the oversight is so i mazing there is no chance for abuse. it turns out that system was pretty broken. we found out through reporting there were 75 instances in the early 2000s where the fbi submitted a fisa warrant and it was erroneous, it had omitted information of innocence. all the things we are talking about in the 2016 fisa warrant in the case of carter page. the fisa court was so mad they hauled bob mueller in and said how are you going to fiction this? he put some procedures in place. but they were blown past to target trump and his campaign. judge jeanine: is there any way for us to know whether the f

fisa abuse?ll you why. he'd have to have the permission of rod rosenstein, who, of course, was involved in the fisa abuse. >> sean: he signed the third renewal, the fourth fisa warrant against carter page. let me go back to john solomon. you did a lot of the uranium one story. you first interviewed -- we had an fbi informant that knew that -- mr. campbell -- that chronicled for than fbi director mueller, that there was bribery, extortion, kickbacks, money laundering going on, by putin thugs in america. they still got the uranium one deal through. talk about money from russia. the clintons got kickbacks from those people to theba tune of $145 billion in speaking fees, and mueller also, we now know through bruce ohr's testimony, he was the conduit for information from the fired christopher steele from the fbi, the liar, the leaker, trying to come in this investigation, to pass information to the special counsel. >> two and explicable cases. you describe it that way, gregg's book does such a good jo

now, the fisa court judges, well, they were never warned of the evidence. they withheld important information that hillary paid for it, the dnc paid for it. it never was verified. none of that. james comey, rod rosenstein, andrew mccabe, sally yates, all of them signing off on the fisa application. well that would be called committing a fraud or conspiracy to commit a fraud on a court. that would be lying. that's a felony. comey and his cohorts were in the fisa court and had you other deep state officials who before the election leaking the dossier to everyone and anyone in the lead-up using russian lies to influence people's votes. wow, sounds like collusion. and then in the fall of 2016, obama cia chief john brennan and comey's general counsel james baker they were both accused of leaking the phony russian lies and the dossier. and just after the election, director of national intelligence james clapper he leaked the dossier to fake news cnn and then lied about that under oath. and then on may 9th, 2017, president trump rightly thankfully fires james come

also fisa abuse on a lot of other issues, what specifically are you looking at?t of people out there think that just because we are in the minority that somehow we are not going to continue this investigation. we are going to work with the judiciary committee and the oversight committee, sean, to ensure this investigation into fisa abuse and other matters continues. the good thing is we got through about 15 interviews last year, the task force data, you covered it sensibly on your show. we are going to continue to call people in for interviews, just last week, the new chairman of the committee and he is going to reopen the russia investigation. we offered about a dozen subpoenas of people we wanted to subpoena. we don't expect for them to subpoena the people that we want, but every attempt that we can, at every opportunity that we get, we will make attempts to subpoena these people to come in and speak. we will also ask for people to voluntarily come in and speak. look, we need the new attorney general to get in there, and we will make criminal referrals on many

let's get back to the fisa warrant process.ould was because of the dossier. the dossier was prepared by a foreign agent and paid for by the democratic party. comey gave it to the president saying you need to know about this. that's the same document they used to give to the court and spared it was reliable. >> sean: the announcement of rosenstein's replacement could come this week. barr picked rosen as the deputy ag? quick reaction? >> that would be a good pick. this investigation is just beginning. we will get to the bottom i promise. >> sean: you and the attorney general, if we are going to have equal justice under the law and equal application and a constitution, you need to get to the bottom of this. a big responsibility on both of your shoulders. coming up next, we have an important about the jussie smollett case and so much more. don't go anywhere on this breaking news night. with an ingredient originally discovered... in jellyfish. in clinical trials, prevagen has been shown to improve short-term memory. prevagen. health

i'll be looking at whether or not the fisa warrant process was abused.t the document used to get a warrant, is it really still a bunch of political garbage? how could you certify to the court that this document is accurate if you never verified it? i'd be looking as to whether the counterintelligence investigation was actually a backdoor way to get into the trump campaign and the real motive was to take therw campain down and to bring criminal charges. counterintelligence investigations, sean, are designed todo protect the targe, which was the trump campaign, against foreign influence. they did not act that way. they acted as if they were -- >> sean: do you agree with me that hillary clinton committed felonies, top-secret, classified information from a violation of the espionage act? you are a great lawyer. if i hired you and i was being charged with obstruction for deleting 33,000 subpoenaed emails, acid washing my hard drive, busting of my with t hammers, do you think you could keep me out of jail? as great as you might be as a lawyer, you, trey gowdy,

they still committed a fraud before the fisa court four times.igned on the last one. i'm looking and this. now we know that he was withholding exculpatory evidence in 75 cases, and they did it in this case. when is anybody going to be held accountable for all of these russian lies that they know hillary paid for from day one, but yet they went with an investigation on trump. >> maybe next week when the next attorney general is sworn in, he's vowed to get to the bottom of it. today's story, as you mentioned in your monologue, is the senator who said we don't have anything that would suggest it was collusion by the trump campaign and russia. that's incredibly important because not only did his committee interview 200 witnesses and examine more than 300,000 pages of documents, but his committee, unlike robert mueller, has direct access to intelligence information that's classified. so there's a forthcoming report saying there's no evidence of collusion is far more reliable than anything mueller will come up with. >> sean: he's seen it all. i'm think

the court, the fisa court, should hold them accountables will. the fisa court should step in. they could lose their law licenses or be charged with lying to the court or misleading the court. those are the types of things that need to happen if we're going to keep this process, this fisa process, which is designed to target terrorists, to target bad guys. the american people need to understand, that system that is supposed to target really bad terrorists and foreigners was used against a political campaign. that's where this went wrong. somebody has to fix it. every day that goes by that it's not fixed, there's fewer and fewer republicans that will support the continuation of thinks programs which are extremely important to protecting americans. >> sir, when you have a joint statement that just came in on the possibility of president trump declaring a national emergency from chuck schumer and speaker nancy pelosi. i want to share it with you. it's a joint statement.

that the fbi and doj misled the fisa court in the summer of 2016 and got a warrant to spy and wiretapsier to achieve standard to get a search warrant, has seduced the intelligence committee and law enforcement to go to it. hey, we give away free search warrants. we give them away with next to no evidence. maria: that doesn't sound like america. >> instead of going to a regular sitting judge. they used to come to me in 3:00 in the morning. maria: that is wrong. >> the standard- maria: that's where the misuse was. >> you have to have real evidence to get a search warrant unless you go to fisa. then you only need evidence that somebody was talking to a foreign person. i could call a book seller in florence, italy and that would be enough to get a fisa warrant on me because i spoke to a foreign person. maria: senator lindsey graham told me on sunday, as the chairman of the committee that he is going to the senate judiciary committee, that he is going to call in and subpoena all of the people who signed the fisa warrant and that includes l sally yates, rod rosenstein. it was obviously uppe

established source, they scor swore to it be fisa court, where is the accountability.t is amazing, they want to make excuses why hillary clinton lost, so they blamed it on the russian, what we've seen, senator burr made the it very clear, there was no collusion. kennedy: you said there were people in the the campaign who were strange and en uni unic enn to manafort. >> same on clinton side. no one wants to talk about ta podesto's role, right. kennedy: it is not right on either side. we are to clean up our politics. you know when one side is pointing fingers at the other, it is dishonest. future court nominee thank you cory. >> thank you. >> amen. kennedy: government shut down does not look like it is headed for a sequel. we're not out of the woods why the. it would provide president with 1.4 billion dollar to build 55 miles of the wall. far less than the 5.7 billion requested. president does not sound like he is a huge fan of the bill. >> conditio i can't say i'm thr. i can tell you, am i happy at first glance? i just saw it no. i'm not. i'm not happy. >> look at john
