first, j edgar hoover himself. examining the role of faith in the life of j edgar hoover, hoover became a central figure in america religion, expressing belief in sacred symbols and the public sphere. without looking at religion in the life of j edgar hoover, we will miss a number of things. for example, in his childhood diaries, they show, as well as his experience as a teenaged sunday school teacher, and also that he explored a call to ministry. all of this reveals how religion shaped troopers work long before he became the director of the fbi. his faith remained when he became the director of the fbi. he was a trustee and member of the national presbyterian church, sharing up you with president eisenhower and john foster dulles, and remained in contact with his pastor for the remainder of his life. all of this reveals that hoover's understanding of religion is a calvinistic understanding of religion, and only viewed how he shaped america and executed his job in protecting america. this is evident in his speeches,

j. edgar hoover. christopher wray's doing a good job of extending that bad part of the legacy, the fbi. the arguments of the fbi is making in this court case against us in the united were not releasing these dart documents are preposterous. one of the reasons is, fbi agents have a presumption of privacy not to be questioned about the public about their conduct in investigations. they argue that this document would harm national security, and give aid to tears, this incredible over the job language. people who have seen the document, including mark meadows, the congressman from north carolina, roto letter this week and set i went and saw this documentary is not classified. it was transmitted through nonclassified email and all it is as open source intelligence they could've gotten on the internet and yet chris wray is fighting us in trying to get that information. i think that's what contracts earns the people that i talked to tonight. >> sean: we want is to be cleaned up. we want to have the premier l

and getting regular feedback from j edgar hoover. and so i am not surprised although i'm disgusted.e house of representatives have learned a lot from fdr, john kennedy, lyndon johnson, among others. because they want to see donald trump's tax returns. of course they do not control the executive branch but they control the house of representatives. we have a chairman of a committee in the house, elijah cummings. elijah cummings has sent a letter to the chairman and chief executive officer of the accounting firm for the president. who handles his businesses among other things. and here's what he wants. to assist our view of the issues, you know that donald trump may not be paying taxes. by the way have an irs for that. it is not the job of democrats in the house. with respect to donald trump, donald j trump, the trump organization, the trump organization llc, the trump corporation, dj t holdings llc, the trump post office, the trump foundation, any parent, subsidiary, affiliate or successor. what does he want? all statements of financial condition and annual statements periodic financ

j. edgar hoover. yet throughout his five-decade career, that year of combat experience with the marines has loomed large in mueller's mind. and i'm quoting. i -- i'm most proud the marine corps deemed me worthy of leading other marines, unquote, he said in 2009. so that's his background, just some of his background. service to his country in vietnam, service as a federal prosecutor for many, many years. then called upon to serve his country again. he is the embodiment of public service. he gives integrity and meaning and value to what president kennedy called us all to do, to not ask what our country can do for us but what recan do for our country -- but what we can do for our country. robert mueller has answered that call over and over again. he's a person of integrity and ability. so just for a few minutes, mr. president, before i yield the floor, i wanted to talk about some of his work. one of the points that then-special counsel mueller made in a statement i guess back in may was he first of all o

j. edgar hoover said that about mrt martin luther king. you don't belong in the field if you think you won't be called that. and you hate whites and cops, why did he call me to the white house several times since he's been president and come to my action network convention, which i released the photos, he's been there two, three times. he doesn't read that. he's playing on what he hopes is the racial ignorance of a lot of americans that he calls his base. i think he's racist because he's comfortable in doing that, because you got to be racist to be comfortable. we were going to baltimore today. michael steele, who was the former chairman of his party, the republican party, and i to show a bipartisan meeting to deal with the fact that black homeowners are dealing with a decrease in being able to keep their home. this is s was scheduled a month ago. we just happened to be going after he picked a fight with the congressman there. he sees i'm going to baltimore and assumes i'm leading a protest from baltimore to the white house, which i might

replace it with a more costly plan to keep pennsylvania avenue locations, demolish the existing j edgar hoover building and construct a new facility on the same site. in order to make that pivot, the administration had to abandon some compelling criteria that has dominated for well over eight years. and that included consolidation of the workforce, it included modernization taking coggins's of 21st century forensics and dna research and getting setbacks which cannot be achieved at the current location which has inherently urban setbacks that are inherently insecure. in february 2018 i wrote the gsa inspector general and requested she investigate the decision-making role and the role of the white house if any in influencing the decision. in august 2018 the inspector general issued a report that noted inaccuracies in the cost estimates presented to congress to the tune of more than a half billion dollars and revealed that the president was personally participating in discussions regarding this revised plan and there are pictures to prove it. yet despite all parties within the administration clai

j. edgar hoover would have done with this technology. it was mr. hoover who surveilled dr. king. they went so far as to send a letter to dr. king encouraging him to take his life. one can only imagine. now, i'm not placing you under the eye of suspicion, but it's my job to make sure that this kind of technology is not abused, and i take my job seriously because i'm protecting you by doing my job, so my concerns are do you alert people in some way to -- so as to advise them that they're being surveilled? >> sir, i wouldn't characterize it as surveillance. the way the alert happens to use your term, is when you proappro the bag drop, the agent will say would you like to use biometric identification to match your bag -- >> if you thought, if you believed that this was a form of surveillance, would you alert people? would you alert the public, if you thought this was some form of surveillance? >> sir, we don't do summers -- >> you don't do it -- excuse me, but if you thought, would you recommend if we were of the opinion that this is surveillance, what do you think we should do? shou

j. edgar hoover was at the f.b.i. so long that he began to use the f.b.i., not as a political weapon to win for one party or another but just as his weapon to be able to get what he wanted from presidents, regardless of their party. f.b.i. all seeing interviewed, retired, talking about hoover sending them to watch the apartment of a woman with whom president kennedy was supposedly having an affair and they watched it be burglarized and they didn't report it, didn't file charges. in fact, they wanted to make sure -- find out exactly what was stolen during the burglary. and they never reported it because their job was to gather information for the head of the f.b.i. and the head of the f.b.i. could then use it to prevent a president from doing anything the f.b.i. director didn't want him to do. which, as i understand it, gave rise to the term limits for an f.b.i. director. i think that was a very good thing. i thought it was a bad thing when president obama extended robert mueller's term by two years. he was a fiasco. h
