james william johnson comes as a field secretary. and then she just meets people, and very often i think that many of the people that she's associated with were from the south. most of them were from the south and they now have migrated up north, and so as they're traveling from the south to the north, then they would have to stop over somewhere. they couldn't stay in a hotel. and so the spencer home was not in the directory, but it was open to people that they were associated with. that's how she meets langston hughes runs into zora neale hurston, she's working on a project, langston hughes is working on another project, and he took the train. zora drove her car. she says, well, i'm going back up north, why don't we drive together? he says, i need to stop over in lynchburg. so he stops to get a ham, and she meets anne spencer, and anne spencer meets zora neale hurston. and then they go on to philadelphia. so there was so much during this period of time. it was, it really was a movement, a really new movement. so that was, i think, j

james comey because potus wants to know everything we are doing. at the time, the fbi did not have an active investigation into clinton's e-mails. however, in his report, johnsonays that the text quote raises additional questions about the type and extent of president obama's personal involvement in the clinton and e-mail scandal and the investigation of it. adding whether the obama justice department influenced the investigation deserves total investigation. >> those texts unvarnished raise an awful lot of questions. they're cryptic, they're not complete, there's redactions in those things. but it just requires our committee with jurisdiction of federal records to have the oversight of congressional records. >> donald trump tweeting new fbi texts are bombshells. however, associates tell "the wall street journal" that the texts refer to briefing oh bam the ma on russian election interference which was high on the president's radar at that time. >> that's the shortest tweet i've ever seen from president trump. >> yeah. >>> vice president mike pence reportedly offers to meet with an american competing in the american olympics, but the athlete says thanks, but no

james comey need to answer, so does loretta lynch, so does secretary johnson, the secretary of homelandat the russians were trying to impede in our 2016 elections, why did they fail? the dereliction of duty goes across the board for the obama administration. steve: sure. you know, david, some people say, you know, obviously the russians wanted donald trump to win the presidency. as soon as he does they do all the anti-trump stuff, so which is it, guys? >> look, if the russians had had, if the soviets had in the '80s, facebook, google, all of these online opportunities they would have used them. that is what they're learning here. they're going back to their subterfuge of the old days. they have want to disrupt our country. they want to disrupt our elections and that's what they're doing. and so what president trump has to do, this is just my humble opinion, is give direction to, probably already has done it, is to our law enforcement and our intelligence agencies say, this must never happen again. i think that, that's what he and his responsibility and his role should do today but this

johnson made this sound like president obama then wanted to know everything about the hillary clinton e-mail investigation. the problem is that investigation as far as anyone knew was over in july when james spoke. the day of that means president obama wants to know what he could know about the russia investigation which you think a president should want to know about. >> if the russians were engaging in meddling in the election, which i believe that they were, it would of -- of course the president would -- and if you take the text as it was, i would be a little upset if the commander-in-chief was not trying to figure out what are we doing to try to stop the russians from getting into the campaign -- or excuse me the voting stations and voting machines and other things to try to fix the outcome of an election. that should be his job. and this is the problem between taking -- what should be classified investigations until they are complete into basically campaigns. and in a political gun fight where there is shooting back and forth, there is always one victim and that is likely the truth. >> thank you very much. >>> the senate back in session very shortly to vote on this big budget deal.

director james comey saying quote potus wants to know everything we're doing. that's referring to barack obama. a new report by senator ron johnson and homeland security staff this raises questions about president obama's personal involvement in the clinton email investigation. then in another exchange the text shed some light on the timing of the discovery of hundreds of thousands of emails on anthony wieners laptop strzok writes. got called up to andy's earlier. thousands of emails turns over to southern district of north -- new york. this will never end. but note it wasn't until a full month later on october 28th that comey informs congress he is reopening the clinton investigation begging the question of why it took so long, a full month, for the investigative team to inform him of the discovery. their admiration for comey god, he is so good, strzok said after watching comey's testimony. i know, page responded, brilliant public speaker and brilliant distillation of fact. on election day more disdain for president trump. page writes omg this is blanking terrifying. strzok writes omg i am so depressed. being here makes me angry

johnson, chairman of the homeland security security committee sent a letter to the doj requesting additional texts and emails relating to the fbi investigation of hillary clinton's emails including some from james comey and andrew mccabe. what can you tell us about that? >> i think it's very new so there's not much we know at this point. i will say this just shows how this investigation is really going nowhere, no matter if the memo comes out or not. no matter who the president fires, gets rid of, shuffles. on capitol hill where committees have subpoena power this is not an issue we'll see go away any time soon. >> there's a lot of moving parts when we see when and if this memo is released. i want to play what fran townsend about a possible rebuttal from the fbi. >> my sources is that inside director wray is prepared to rebut if the white house is prepared to release the memo. the question what will that contain. does that tee up a real confrontation? >> what are you hearing from your white house sources about preparations for a battle between the fbi and justice department? >> a battle between this white house and fbi and justice department would be nothing new. the white house has not held at

johnson is asking "all documents and communications including but not limited to e-mails, memoranda, notes, text messages, iphone instant messages and voice mails." among the 16 on the list are fbi director jamesone of the five people he told about his interactions with president trump which are under investigation by the special counsel. joe, this is senator ron johnson, to remind people who raised the prospect of "secret societies" that were in text messages between peter strzok, the former fbi agent, and lee is page, who also worked at the fbi. that turned out to be a joke but he tpushed that on tv. >> and of course "i'm still conduct mig investigation. i'll get back to you." it must be about these senators with wisconsin, he with his lists. clint, now it's quite clear that you have partisans on capitol hill that are going to dig in and do anything they can to embarrass and humiliate any member of the fbi who investigates anybody who is their political patron. how does the fbi respond to this? >> it will actually harm things. imagine -- i wouldn't want to send a text message today to one of my colleagues because i don't know if five years from now some senator will pull all my text records
