so what do you make of trey gowdy?d congress to be a slow-moving entity. if you wanted excitement you need on donald trump. so it is meant to not be full of flame and fire and action and all of that. the president is meant to be a man of action, to move that slow-moving entity. he's a lawyer. maybe it bench would be more suited for him. but the fact of the matter is we have media constantly making celebrities out of some of these individual. some of them think their job is to pontificate when they should be legislating. we have 7 more months and there are 75 workdays for these individual. gregg: trey gowdy headed up the legislative committee, you are not going to be sorry to see him go, are you? >> i sort of will. if this is the real trey gowdy that we have seen in recent memory i am not sorry to see him go. i like the guy we saw in the beginning. but i don't understand the turmoil he's creating including telling the president he should testify. that's pretty silly for a top-flight lawyer. gregg: maybe he wasn't a top-

we'll sit down this morning with two south carolina republicans, tim scott and congressman trey gowdy to talk about new their book "unfiled" which focuses on be the divide. tension between u.s. and russia escalates we'll also weigh in on special counsel into election meddling. bernie sandsers also joins us to discuss the future of the veterans administration and growing questions around epa administrator scott pruitt. our political panel will round up the news of the week, what the conversations with the united nations top official on refugees about the global crisis of millions given from their homes by war and familiar in it all starts now on "face the nation." good morning, welcome to face the make i'm margaret brennan. we begin today with two congressional republicans from south carolina, senator tim scott and representative trey gowdy. their new book "unified" tells the story of their close friendship and their home to heal divided country. welcome to both of you, gentlemen. >> thank you. >> i want to talk to you both about why you wrote the book, why you did it together but also

if he said -- trey gowdy said it's like an episode of "mean girls."tic when you deal with confidential information. the idea to put it back to the throws of congress and the jaws of congress to be leaked out to the american people, that is not the answer. >> so katie, should james comey's book tour include a stop with the inspector general? so he can set the record straight? because as he said, he assumed hillary clinton would win and he didn't want her to have an illegitimate presidency if there were 600,000 e-mails, potentially some classified on anthony wiener's laptop. >> some have said the investigating of hillary clinton's e-mail scandal is because things kept getting added. the inspector general -- >> and getting pressure from republicans and democrats. >> and the reason why -- trey gowdy is right. the reason why the department of justice handled these cases, the inspector general has the ability to recommend disciplinary action, which means potential prosecution for lying under oath. james comey leaked information to a friend and the media whi

it would appear trey gowdy is having a moment of his own right now.n and interview with vice news, gowdy who announced in january announced he would not seek re-election said congress is hampered by ineffectiveness. >> you didn't like this job, did you. >> that sounds self-be. i liked the people. >> you don't like the job. >> no, i'm an executive branch guy, not a legislative branch guy. >> eight years you did it. >> seven soon to be eight. to the extent men judge themselves based on what they do for a living, i don't have a lot to show for the last seven years. >> the president of the united states, the leader of the republican party called you a loser. >> depending on how you judge the purpose of the benghazi investigation, i think a lot of people would say i was a loser. >> wow. after all those hours of testimony by the former secretary of state hillary clinton he's admitting it was all a waste. you won't be seeing me running again. i'm done he said. the former federal prosecutor has niced the ire of some conservatives given his defense of the mule

lou: trey gowdy and bob goodlatte. two committees you serve on. a deal they announced to get documents from the department of justice. the deal it turns out without any in the announcement, any statement of detail or specifics offering 400,000 documents available for their review. that means 800,000 will not be. what are they playing at? >> we need to figure out what's so special about these 400,000. all i know is for the last 6 to 8 months he time we wanted something i is when they stonewall. oonlt time we give us something is when we threaten action. based upon recent history from these agencies they did not agree to give us everything we know we need. lou: congressman. great to have you with us. appreciate it. up next, the deep state swamp is in desperate need of further draining. new revelations that the obama department of justice tried to shut down the clinton foundation investigation. ed rollins will join us with that and more. you ok there, kurt? we're about to move. karate helps... relieve some of the house-buying... stress. at least you

so what do you make of trey gowdy?ink the founders intended congress to be a slow-moving entity. if you wanted excitement you need on donald trump. so it is meant to not be maybe it bench wou you? >> i sort of will. if this is the real trey gowdy that we have seen in recent memory i am not sorry to see him go. i like the guy we saw in the beginning. but i don't understand the turmoil he's creating including telling the president he should testify. that's pretty silly for a top-flight lawyer. gregg: maybe he wasn't a top-flight lawyer. i get whiplash. he's so schizophrenic on issues. tammy, is the house going to change dramatically in the mid-terms? tap * i thinkd. tammy: i think republicans will be fine. we hopefully have some good candidate. i think we do. but the key for these individual running for the gop is to run supporting the president. this is not brain surgery. his approval ratings are higher than obama's were at the same time. the american people are happy with the results. they need to run with the presiden

tim scott is bhe, congressman and trey gowdy of south carolina.horize of the book, unified, how our unlikely friendship gives us hope for a divided country. we need. that we're going to talk about it in the next segment. i have to get to the news of the day, gentlemen. good evening. first congressman gowdy, we're going to discuss your book as i said in the next segment. i want to start with cnn's new reporting that corey lewandowski swore at democrats during the committee saying i'm not going to answer your f'ing questions. can you tell us about that? >> i was certainly there for the first interview. i'm shoe sure you and your viewers recall that there was ambiguity what questions he would answer. when he came back for the second time, i had an oversight hearing. i was not present for it. those were not the exchanges from the first hearing. i don't doubt that those were the exchanges during second hearing. i just was not there for it. >> so they're reporting congressman gowdy that republicans on the committee sided with lewandowski saying he spent

>> up next, south carolina republicans senator tim cot and congressman trey gowdy discussion their friendship and time in congress. they're interviewed by former south carolina senator jim demint. >> thank you for joining usment senator tim scott, congressman trey gowdy, i love your book. i love your book. unified. i love the title. >> thank you. >> the best part is the picture on the cover, you two laughing at each other, tells the whole story. i want to talk about how you met and a little bit of the chaos involved when you got here. first thing i want to talk but it your campaigned. they're both notable in different ways. trey, you decided after never running for a legislative office before, to take on a veteran republican incumbent congressman, and tim, you jumped into a crowded field in charleston with two -- with the sons of who iconic republican political leaders, carol campbell strom thurmond. trey what made you decide to jump into a congressional race? was it's mid-life crisis? >> i wish i knew, senator. that is the best question i get, which is -- dican tell you why i left the distri

i am struggling with gowdy.t congress as he was not a member of the congress. >> oh, it has been my year -- it is worthless. >> sort of distant and how he's talking about it. if he still wants to work, he still has time to work. he's got 19 more weeks left in congress. he can call scott pruitt in. >> he's over that. that's democratic work. >> he want to get congress to do something, do something. >> remember gowdy that we all watched of a southern guy, serious southern lawyer who's clever and catching hillary clinton. it did not happen. >> a couple of thing, first of all, i agree with you, jim allen, it took him seven or eight years to realize that his life's work being an executive branch, it takes seven or eight years to get there. nobody puts a gun to his head to lead the benghazi investigation. that was a plum job which he sought and wanted. >> sounded like stormy daniels saying, i was in the room. >> president trump got it right. i don't want to go as far assayiassa as saying the loser. >> what did he say t

>> yeah, i agree with trey gowdy. laughing a little bit because trey gowdy is like oil and vinegar. but he gave the interview. but he's right. it's all about winning. i don't know what the overarching ideological motive of the underlying governing principles of the agenda. it's about winning at all costs, and i think that has a very adverse effect on the party going forward because the party doesn't stand for anything, then it's hard to get people to stand with the party. >> jason, he also goes on this speel about how he feels like the last seven years of his professional life have been a bit of a waste and rails against congress and partisanship. here's the thing. it seems as if a lot of these lawmakers when they decide it's time to retire, they decide to bash the partisanship and the bickering that they were a part of. >> right. >> their entire political career. all of a sudden they leave and say it was so awful. can you believe what these people do all day? >> i was fascinated by the interview. number one, this not

trey gowdy,en with he clearly is the occasion that someone doesn't stop to is not from here and thank for his service. it is just a fun experience, but it is also meeting full and cigna -- meaningful and significant to look into his cranial cavity on the onspective he takes important issues. you will find very quickly that while he may be branded partisan at times, the truth of the matter is his primary objective is truth. you, he isgives sorry, but he is going to find the truth. that is hard in a city who wants in sometimes more important than finding the truth. i am finding a great friendship for someone who is interested in the truth. something not, memory was written about senator scott in a blog and frankly, it was libelous. i reached the end. i said we are not going to put up with this. i marched down to the office and went past the scheduler and said, i am going in to see him, and we are going to do something about this you cannot allow people to say this and do nothing about it. you are right. close the door. i thought, this is going to be good. he said, we are going to pray f

knowing trey gowdy publicly is to know just the tip of the iceberg. lot of it has to do with the prosecutorial skills and abilities, being cross-examined by trey gowdy is not a pleasant experience, and we seemed that. watching him on court tv in murder trial. >> you see that. but watching him with a bipartisan group of members, congress members, sitting at a table and laughing into your stomach hurts. it's a very different experience. i wanted want people to undersd appreciate the rest of trey gowdy by reading "unified." >> again it really opens up both of you and the friendship together is so much fun to go through, but trey, there's a page in the book what you're talking about tim and different places you say this guy has humility. this guy knows when to speak and when to listen. you say this guy is strategic, very complementary thoughts of someone in congress. tell us more about tim. >> he's my favorite person in public office, and they say that privately. i say that publicly. i actually say that if somebody doesn't want to be a judge anymore, so i

trey gowdy asking the inspector general is the place to go.e haven't seen everything mark meadows is talking about and making accusations. at some point we have to stop hearing accusations and hear the evidence. maybe the inspector general -- >> who would they pair him with "dancing of the stars?" >> we'll see. >> very gracious. >> that being said, if this was the case, if, you know, somehow the investigation has been finding -- people just want to know, is there ultimately going to be accountable ility. >> i think this inspector general's report, which is going to come out in i believe three weeks or so, is going to -- i think it's going to educate the american people in a very big way about what mccabe was doing, what comey was doing and what page and strzok. >> whatever was going on, if there was something that gave a chilling effect from the fbi, whether it was the way james comey did business or if he had a bit one way or the other, politically leaning or bad with everybody -- >> which he may have been. >> but i think the american people

." >> martha: and moments, my exclusive interview with congressmen/authors now trey gowdy and senator tim scott will join me. what they make of the revelations tonight in the rush investigation and the scathing op-ed written by andrew mccabe's wife. also, those swirling rumors on the hill that many republicans are ready to give up on their conservative agenda until after the midterm elections. but first tonight, the latest on two stories that are breaking right now. at the u.s.-mexico border where the president said today he will send our military, is a caravan of migrants try to travel over the border to demand asylum in the united states. also tonight in california where authorities are trying to figure out what let a woman to open fire on fellow employees at youtube headquarters leaving several people injured before shooting and killing herself. trace gallagher joins us live with developments as we get started tonight on "the story." hi trace. >> hi martha, active shooter inside a 200,000 square-foot building some 1700 people inside. the initial mirage of my 11 calls came in at 12:

gowdy and devin nunes have all the security clearances to be able to see it.into a secure facility. >> juan: devin nunes didn't challenge the authorization of fisa. he didn't have. now he seems like he has trouble with the very tool. >> jason: some of this stuff is a closed case. it begs the question, why won't the intelligence community, why won't the fbi allow the investigators to see it? if the american people are paying for it, then they should be able to see it if they have the proper security clearance. why won't they let them see this document? in a secure facility, let them see it. >> kimberly: i think it is suspect. it's inappropriate. this is the principle the government was founded on. we have representation in congress. they have every right to be able to see it. no one has been able to proffer any explanation to say why they shouldn't. that's why people are asking these important questions. we shouldn't have this kind of secrecy especially as it relates to this. we need to know and they have the right to be able to see it. why isn't it happening?

house intel chair devin nunes oversight committee chair trey gowdy, and bob goodlot set a deadline remanding unredacted copies from james comey memos about his meeting with president trump. it appears that comey's book relies in part of on the memos, republican leadership that memos should be made available to the public as well. catherine herridge live tonight in washington with latest for us. >> good evening lou. >> deadline came and went, with no indication from the 3 house committee chairman that the justice department handed over the comey memos, lawmakers want access to all 7 memos after some were leaked to media by friend of comeys, and former fbi director talk the last night. >> president tweeted, calling

south carolina senator tim scott and congressman trey gowdy.y are out with a book called unified. how our unlikely friendship gives us hope for a divide country. we are going to get to the book in just a moment. a shooting brought the two of you together. a roar hi figure tragedy. where guns tearing us apart? >> i think you could argue the gun issue is. our approach to debating this is you don't support the second amendment, and you support mass killings. how will redoing enforcing the panoply of gun laws we have. even under president obama gun prosecutions are down. if usual look for a group of laws to enforce. the question is how are you doing with the current crop of laws. kennedy: but there are a lot of laws on the books, and there are a vast majority of gun owners in this country are trained. they are self-aware, and they are very cognizant of those laws and gun safety. it's disingenuous when we have tragedies like this to immediately spew talking points. how do we elevate the conversation? >> there is a common denominator we should pay at

representative gowdy very differenthan i am sometimes a philosophical disposition but in the middle of racially tinged atrocity, to have him be the first person that i want to call for support and doing this earlier with you to anchor just says so much about our state and our friendship and about what would not happen in charleston or south carolina which was a spark around racism starting in our state one of the reasons of the catalyst for writing the book for me was born that night unbeknownst to me that i could not think of a better person. i didn't even think. i just dialed. i hope our country as we read through the book that we can bring them back to one nation with south carolina's last 50 years of change and transformation and in charleston specifically but to turn in the midst of socially lung -- racially motivated to turn to the white guy from the state with an amazing history than there is hope for the rest of the country to bridge the divide that the american family can sit down to have a hard conversation about the path forward then there is hope in 2015 and progress amidst

republican congressman trey gowdy joins us to break it all down next.s the thing, just because i configured this car online doesn't mean it really exists at a dealership. but with truecar, i get real pricing on actual cars in my area, i see what others paid for them and they show me the ones that match the car i want, so i know i can go to a truecar certified dealer and it'll be right there waiting for me... today, right now. this is truecar. >> chris: james comey's new book is causing quite a stir but not everyone is impressed. >> the american people see through the blatant lies of a self-admitted leaker. >> chris: we'll ask trey gowdy what it means for president trump next on "fox >> chris: normally the decision to launch a military strike would fill the plate of any president. but this weekend president trump has plenty more to deal with. the criminal investigation of his personal lawyer, a special counsel continuing to breathe down his neck, and now a damaging book by the former head of the f.b.i. joining me to discuss all this south carolina congre

joining me now, tim scott and trey gowdy. gentlemen, thank you both for being here and congratulations on the book. >> thank you. >> does it feel good having it done and finished? >> yes, ma'am. >> the president just had a -- i'll get a little bit of the news of the day out of the way. the president just had a quad lat, is what i'm calling it with a number of baltic leaders and i want to get your opinion on this. in answering questions, he trashd the press again in front of foreign nations, in front of foreign leaders saying that the baltic reporters were real news and american press was fake news. are you concerned about this constant attack on journalism and what it means for the future of how we operate, if we don't share a set of facts or share some credibility? >> yeah, we need a free and robust and respected media. that's why they're giving, i think, certain privileges that the rest of us aren't given with respect to the first amendment. so we're not going to make it as a republic if we don't have a free and non-fearful

representative trey gowdy together?e will tell you after this. representative trey gowdy together? we will tell you after >> jason: i just want to give a shoutout to my friends and former colleague senator tim scott and trey gowdy. they have a new book out "unified" be sure to check it out. they gave me a copy today when they were in here. there are a lot of questions about members of congress. but people with two of the greatest bits of integrity are tim scott and trey gowdy. and they are very close friends and i think you will find this book illuminating. i have had a great time filling in for laura ingraham these past two evenings. so be sure to follow me via twitter, jason in the house. just in the fox house now. i'd love to hear what you thought about tonight's show. the fox news at night team are up next. shannon, take it away. . >> shannon: we are glad you are in the fox house too, jason. i am shannon bream. this is "fox news @ night." we are covering breaking news across the nation. we have top government offici

chris: we will discuss the latest developments with congressman trey gowdy, chair of the oversight committee, former fbi director james comey's new book lashes out at president trump and the white house responds. >> the intelligence community does intelligence, the white house does pr and spin. >> comey will be forever known as disgraced hack that broke trust with the president of the united states. chris: we will ask sunday panel if there are bombshells in the new book or just a political food fight all right now on fox news sunday. ♪ ♪ chris: and hello again from fox news in washington, strikes on syria by u.s., france and britain are a show of western resolve meant to punish bashar al-assad for his latest chemical weapon's attack on his own people. the pentagon describes the strikes on three targets as overwhelming and effective. but what happens if assad uses chemical weapons again and where does this leave u.s. policy for dealing with civil war and terror threat in syria? in a moment with we will speak live with u.s. ambassador to the united nations nikki haley, but first to national se

finally he allowed chairman devin nunes and chairman gowdy

do you think traid gowdy will agree to that? >> trey gowdy is a friend. when it comes to scandal in the trump administration, whether it be tom price or mr. pruitt, it has been crickets. silence. no interest in seeing, hearing or talking any kind of evil. i think it is scandalous. the oversight committee has an independent role for the united states congress as an institution and we're not doing our job. i'm not hopeful that chairman gowdy will do anything with regard to administrator pruitt. that's why i think that's right has to go. i think the the ethical behavior built up to the point, he is no longer credible. the documents they've been show the hand over, do you think they will issue those subpoenas? so far we've had he several dozen subpoena requests. ethical lapses, travel, security clearances and the like. he has responded to not one. he's not issued a single scene that. a i think that's a record for a cheryl of our committee. when president obama was in office, they were working overtime issuing subpoenas and launching investigations, trying to

they're not serious about it. >> bill: back to trey gowdy's point.lican of wisconsin strongly disagrees with you and trey gowdy. he said this. >> special counsel was named far too soon. i would have rather had the senate and house intelligence committees complete their report. i know what happens. when you have a criminal investigation it is that much more difficult for congress to get the information to allow the american public to understand what's happening. >> bill: the point there being give it to congress and let them investigate like the 9/11 commission. instead you turn it over to bob mueller and who knows what he will find. all we know is paul manafort didn't pay taxes. what does that have to do with the election of 2016? >> the first problem was the appointment of attorney general sessions. he recuses himself of the core thing he is supposed to be doing. then it is a trump appointee that appoints this special prosecutor. it all works under senator johnson's theory if the documents are opened up. you have three subpoenas, none of being enfor

joining us to talk about it, tim scott and trey gowdy.hey are co-authors of a new book unified, how our unlikely friendship gives us hope for a divided country. this is a such a great book. >> it is such a blessing from the great lord that i can call this man my wing man, anchors me in public service coming up in a single parent household, distressed communities, a son of affluent family that we couldn't have played for examptogether g. but we have a lot of conflict, a lot of polarization. but the fact of the matter is if we can become best friends, in is money for a divided country because americans, we really are exceptional. >> so why is he leaving? >> please stay. please stay. >> seriously, the way you describe your friendship, don't you think you guys are needed in congress right now? >> i think he is unique. i think he has a unique skillset. frankly, people like me are a dime a dozen. middle aged white lawyers are not unique. i will always support his career. i've been in public service for 25 years. i really enjoyed the courtroom.

trey gowdy had said to john dowd. if your client is innocent, why don't you act like it?hat's where they are now. they have to come up with this nonsense and gowdy today, along with bob goodlet, taking a deal with the justice department where they get 400000 documents out of 1.2 million that they have been asking for for six months. what in the world are they thinking? >> they may be naive and gullible if they think they will get what they deserve the the department and justice has awe long hospital of the hiding evidence and covering up wrongdoing and there is plenty to cover up here. and i wonder how many documents they eventually will be getting is react dakted and the other documents are buried in a vault and oh, we don't know anything about it. >> these two chairman of over sight, gowdy would agree to a deal of a third and when they have a responsibility of oversight of justice in the fbi. >> they should get all of it. >> and absolutely. if let's turn to if we may, the revelation that andrew mccabe. andrew mccabe was told and call would by a high department justice o

i want to ask you, congressman gowdy, why not turn over this document? why wouldn't they? >> i don't know. i have seen the initial document which was pretty heavily redacted and then they went back and gave us the document with fewer redactions. we would like to see it all. it's important why the investigation began, when it began, what information you had that led to the launching of the investigation. those are all legitimate questions. i appreciate the fact they've let us see part of the document but we would benefit from seeing all of it and i don't think that's too much to ask for another co-equal branch of government to ask that of the bureau. >> sandra: if the memo is not given up by april 11th senator scott, there is -- they're threatening enforcement of subpoenas. we'll see where this goes. but is it to be assumed they are hiding something by not turning this over? >> the longer it takes to get the information to the public and to the congress, it is absolutely suggesting that there is something to be wary of, something that may be hiding. the truth is the key for

you are talking about john radcliff and tray gowdy. is those document was a subpoena i issued back in 2016. these documents in a closed case, closed case had been under subpoena since 2016. the department of justice will not release them and i tell you, not even a fraction of the fraction of the documents. brian: jeff sessions says chris wray is going to speed it up. you have 20 seconds left. what convince you are speeding it up. >> need to bring the documents before congress. closed issue they need to photocopy them. they have 110,000 people at the department of justice and they're doubling it to 40 people? give me a break. brian: the president has every right to be angry, right? >> absolutely. brian: great job filling in for laura last night. >> thanks. you are doing it tonight. brian: your two buddies are coming out soon. grassroots groups are fighting back. next guest's son killed by illegal. that dad is here with an exclusive announcement. plus, are you being spied on right now? your phone could be listening and the government has

chris: we will discuss the latest developments with congressman trey gowdy, chair of the oversight committee, former fbi director james comey's new book lashes out at president trump and the white house responds. >> the intelligence community does intelligence, the white house does pr and spin. >> comey will be forever known as disgraced hack that broke trust with the president of the united states. chris: we will ask sunday panel if there are bombshells in the new book or just a political food fight all right now on fox news sunday. ♪ ♪ chris: and hello again from fox news in washington, strikes on syria by u.s., france and britain are a show of western resolve meant to punish bashar al-assad for his latest chemical weapon's attack on his own people. the pentagon describes the strikes on three targets as overwhelming and effective. but what happens if assad uses chemical weapons again and where does this leave u.s. policy for dealing with civil war and terror threat in syria? in a moment with we will speak live with u.s. ambassador to the united nations nikki haley, but first to national se

i want to ask you about one thing before that this idea of gowdy, trey gowdy, it seems like republicanstheir way out of congress become very independent. they really stand apart. i'm talking about corker, dent. i'm talk about ryan and costello. i'm talking about flake. all these senators and members of congress are openly against trump the minute they decline to run for reelection. now we have trayvon martin one of the leaders of the investigation benghazi saying hold your horse, mr. president. you're not off the hook because the republicans on the house intelligence committee have said they don't have any collusion case. >> that's an important point. in fact, chairman gowdy really signals that the republican establishment, the leaders of the house, the committee chairman, they're taking a different tone, a different message when it comes to the mueller probe in the justice department. you see it even with devin nunes, the ally house committee chairman. he and gowdy are working more closely. it's mark meadows, north carolina congressman. the allies of president trump in congress, they'r

the greatest integrity, tim scott and trey gowdy. two of the finest people.are very close friends and i think you'll find this book illuminating. that's it for us tonight. i have had a great time filling in for laura ingraham the past two evenings. brian kilmeade will be in the chair tomorrow night. he has a pack of red bulls ready to stay awake. be sure to follow me on twitter. jason in the house. in the fox house now. i would love to hear what you think about tonight's show. shannon bream and the "fox news @ night" team are up next. shannon. >> shannon: we are glad you are in the fox house too, jason. i am shannon bream. this is "fox news @ night." we are covering breaking news across the nation. we have top government officials from southern california on the brink of defying the state and its sanctuary state policy. texas attorney general ken paxton will talk about sending the national guard to the border as a caravan of migrants marches through mexico. we will go live to youtube headquarters for the latest on the shooting mystery there. we begin with a r
