attorney for the great state of connecticut, john durham, to lead that review, but in addition to johnham working on it, cnn was first to report today that they've also roped in the leaders of the intelligence community as well. "attorney general william barr is working closely with the cia to review the origins of the russia investigation and surveillance issues surrounding donald trump's presidential campaign. barr is working in close collaboration with cia director gina haspel, the director of national intelligence, dan coats, and the fbi director, christopher wray." the fbi director, the cia director, and the director of national intelligence. they're all personally tasked now with working with a handpicked federal prosecutor to investigate the counterintelligence investigation into russia and what they did during the campaign. number one, are we sure that investigation's over? and number two, what does it mean that the people who conducted and led that investigation are now, themselves, being subject to this new hybrid sort of nonofficial review involving the heads of all those ag

attorney john durham to investigate the investigators. pitol hill with reaction. what is the chairman of the senate judiciary committee saying? >> reporter: some are applauding that attorney general william barr has put durham on the case. now lindsey graham said lawmakers should let him do his job. >> now that there's apparently a prosecutor looking at the clinton e-mail investigation, looking at the counter intelligence investigation and potentially the fisa warrant abuse, i'm not going to use this committee to get in their way. we don't need a bunch of politicians being prosecutors. >> reporter: he is concerned people are starting to be prosecuted for political reasons and the judiciary chairman said he wants no part of that, dana. >> dana: on the other side of the hill, the house has no such qualms. what about their effort to get the former white house counsel to testify? >> reporter: welsh typically congressional committees a week ahead of time announce their intentions to hold a congressional hearing. so this morning we got an adviso

attorney john durham is an experienced prosecutor whose portfolio includes highly sensitive corruption cases including the misuse of finn informants, destruction of evidence at the cia as well as ongoing leak investigations. durham began his investigation into the origins of the russia probe weeks ago where he directly with dan coats the director of national intelligence and cia director gina haspel. sources also tell fox news that durham is focused on the months leading up to the 2016 election. including the use and initiation of informants whether it was based on solid evidence and what they call proper will he predicated as well as irregularities in the surveillance born application process for trump campaign aid. what's important to note is that attorney general william barr indicated recently during congressional testimony that there are pending criminal leak investigations and the inspector general michael horowitz could deliver his reports on alleged surveillance abuses this month or next. fox news has learned independently a state department official warned a senior fbi officia

paul: dan, tell us about john durham and his history. what's his reputation?s the one g-man in the world you do not want on your case, because most likely he will get you. and a guy who knows that, a couple of fbi agents who were associated with the criminal in boston way back when called whitey bulger who was public enemy back then, very famous criminal -- paul: mob boss. >> mob boss. he framed four guys for murder back in 19 of 8. turned out he was an fbi informant being protected by several fbi agents. thirty years later john durham was asked to look back into that case that occurred in 1968, and he got convictions of the two fbi agents who had been protecting whitey bulger, an extraordinary investigation into the fbi. paul: so he has experience investigating the investigators, going after the fbi -- and he was asked by former attorney general mike mukasey in the late bush administration, kim, to investigate the destruction of tapes, videotapes of terrorist suspect interrogations, but he didn't bring any indictments there. so there's no guarantee here that

i think this is about john durham. i think it's about john durham. has been described not only as a bull dog, but he has made a history of overturning cases. it is more complicated than you brought in somebody to take a look at something. you brought in one of the best in the business at taking a look at business. you're going to see a lot of day light on, they say it's the greatest disinfectant. you're going to see a lot of daylight on a lot of issues. then the question become, what do we do when we get the information? do we have a backbone in this country to really press against the investigators that they did something untoward or illegal? >> we'll hold them accountable. we'll see what happens. >> okay. the trump administration heading to capitol hill today to brief lawmakers on the situation with iran. that country ramps up uranium enrichment and rejects talks with the u.s. could today's briefing lead to formal action in congress? >> it's very hostile. number one, provateur of terror. ♪ limu emu and doug. what do all these people have in common,

attorney john durham to examine the beginning of the russia probe. is investigations raises the legitimate prospect of criminal charges for wrongdoers who unlawfully spied on the president and his political advisors. julian, we are told in the next few weeks we will get the inspector general's report. i'm hearing u.s. attorney john uber who is investigating this will also come back with more information. do you think anybody is going to get in trouble to the extent of criminal trouble? >> no, i wouldn't hold your breath. i am all for an investigation into the origins of the investigation. if that's what the white house wants. i think we should get the american people deserve all the facts on the table, the way they deserve all the facts on the table on the obstruction question and they deserve the facts on the table on the russian interference question. i think that the white house is playing this in a very dumb way because with this investigation into the origin of the russian interference is going to mean is that it's going to stay on the front pag

well, john durham comes to town, and the case starts unraveling.he one who after 30 plus years had been imprisoned. a couple on death row, he brought it to the judge and set in motion the exoneration of them. and it lead to $102 million civil lawsuit of a victory for them against the feds. he did a great job. and he understands the corruption in the fbi. and he is also working for two democrat attorneys on special cases like this and twols republican attorneys generals. in one case was the case in boston with the fbi corruption. and two other cases involving the cia. it is pretty clear to most people that this hoax, as he put it has its genesis in the fbi most likely the cia. so i think he is a really good guy for the job. he understands what he is up against. when he came to boston he saw how corrupt and sordid the entire situation was.. so he moved his entire base of operations to west or 30 or 40 miles away just to keep a hands off attitude towards the city. he is a very smart guy. >> tucker: if you were a corrupt fbi official, he is the last gu

we're talking about john durham, michael horowitz and john huber each charged with tackling the processthe trump campaign and ensnared dozens for non-collusion-related offenses. the president who is scheduled to speak at the capitol saying the origins of russia probe deserve a closer look. >> president trump: they want to look at how that whole hoax got started. it was a hoax. and you know what? i'm so proud of our attorney general that he is looking into it. i think it's great. >> that man, of course, attorney general bill barr who suggested that spying on the trump campaign back in 2016 did occur. >> he said there was four key things. a failure of leadership at the upper echelon at the f.b.i. spying took place, he said it twice. he said there is a basis for his concern about the spying that occurred. and finally the two themes, he used two terms that should scare every american. he said unauthorized surveillance and political surveillance. >> surveillance, collection of communications, possible entrapment. eavesdropping. it is all on the table deserving of a much closer examination. >

it's a waste of john durham's talent. it's a net to his reputation -- a threat to his reputation for being a straight shooter, serious and straightforward prosecutor. lou: there's a man who tried to talk with nothing to say. radical, the radical left has every reason to be hysterical, of course. en tonight the fox's catherine herridge reporting that in december 2016 fired former fbi director james comey had e-mail discussions about using the unverified steele dossier as part of the intel community's assessment on russian interference. those comey e-mails also alleging former cia director john brennan was insistent that fraudulent, the fraudulent dossier be included in the assessment. joining us tonight, former reagan white house political director, fox business political analyst, the savant himself, ed rollins. >> thank you. lou: let's start with, first, richard blumenthal babbling on. i couldn't make head nor tails of what he was saying other than he was, obviously, more than just a little concerned about being the subje

. >> sean: let me ask you about a report and joe digenova's comments, greg, that john durham has already convened a grand jury in connecticut. they have already gotten documents. they have already talked to intel people. durham's efforts is operating alongside fisa abuse, its investigator, inspector horowitz. i have sources telling me horowitz is perhaps finished with his report and certainly the attorney general has been briefed on what is coming. and according to joe digenova, horowitz has determined three of the extensions against carter page and thus spying on the trump administration were illegally obtained. and on the brink of finding that the first fisa application was completely illegal thoughts? >> i think joe is right. there will be a separate part of the ig report based on the lies and deceptions and concealing of evidence to the fisa judges. but, you know, you need u.s. attorney because the inspector general could only uncover evidence that he has access to and people still employed by the government. you need a u.s. attorney like durham to be able to subpoena people to haul

let's have john durham take a look as well. great timing.emember waiting in the wings is lindsey graham who said i want to get to the bottom of this as well. we will find out. >> laura: john, for the democrats to have done what they did last week, moving on contempt against bill barr. did they think that would cower bill barr and he would be dissuaded from what he said he was going to do, which was take a look at this spying? will they try to smear durham given his professionalism and integrity and a wide ranging experience he has on government corruption issues? >> if i were the democrats i would be quite worried. the reason why i am appointing a u.s. attorney, attorney general barr is saying he thinks it's possible that criminal violations occurred in the start of the investigation into the trump russian collusion. judge barr said there is already an inspector general investigation that will come to a conclusion. that's just to reform things. you would not go with a u.s. attorney like durham unless the attorney general thinks something cri

that is john durham's mandate.as more and more comes out, the presidential campaign, hillary clinton's campaign, going through her lawyer, paying a foreign national to gather evidence from russian assets and putting that information into the government sphere with the cia, fbi and leaking that information to the press before and after the election to compromise the trump presidency. how do you not look at that? one, determine whether laws were broken. maybe there were no laws broken. let's play with that possibility for a second. does that mean you don't look at it and see hey, maybe we need to change the way things are done in this new age. maybe we have have seen how agencies are corrupted. >> how is that not your collusion? democrats are looking for collusion. as you just outlined. i think the new information regarding the defense's briefing speaks to the motivation behind the investigator, which is a concern. i hope the inspector general gets to the bottom of that as well as john durham and william barr. you ha

john durham is the u.s.ney in connecticut and the one who has been looking into this information for the last couple of weeks after he was asked by the attorney general to conduct an investigation of these issues . joining more to talk about its jeff. jeff or doc -- guest: thank you for having me. host: you used the term investigator in your story. is that his title or is he a prosecutor or special prosecutor? guest: he is a prosecutor because that is his role in connecticut. it makes him sort of a second special counsel because he is going to have the full powers of the special counsel and he is aing to retain the power of u.s. special attorney which means he can issue subpoenas. he has put together a team to start looking into things. this is a full-fledged investigation. host: talk about the scope of exact what he has been tasked to do. looking at thebe origins of the russia probe and all allegations republicans have raised about the fbi spying on members of the trump campaign, but it will be more expensi

attorney general william barr has appointed john durham the u.s. igate how the russia investigation got started. fox news confirms durham who is known as a hard charging bulldog that's in quotes has been working on the investigation for weeks. the move comes as president trump has pushed for answers why the feds president obama conducted surveillance on his campaign and whether democrats were the ones who improperly included with foreign actors.

but now what we're going to see instead, i'm afraid, is that john durham's reputation is going to bed the same way bill barr's was and brett kavanaugh was. his reputation is unblemished but i don't think that will happen here. >> sean, can i make one more point as well? if you want to look at the culpability of the media, look at the fact that james comey knew that cnn was looking for a news source to publish the salacious information in christopher steele's dossier. he did a try private meeting with trump, that meeting leaked and it gave cnn and buzzfeed of the news hook to publish the dossier involved. the media has been completely culpable in pushing this completely narrative. >> and comey still getting town halls. which is remarkable. >> sean: i warned him, mr. jimbo, mr. super patriot, mr. virtue, you have the right to remain silent. i keep advising, you won't listen to me. thank you both. i appreciate it. when we come back the city of denver mile high, yes, they have decriminalized psychedelic and, yes, hallucinogenic magic mushrooms. we sent lawrence jones to see what they thi

john durham charged with leading this investigation is also the man who happens to be investigating james baker who was our guest friday night here on the show for supposed unauthorized disclosures to the media. but this new development again reported tonight by "the new york times" is what the president's been asking for, the president increasingly republicans in congress have been calling for investigations into the people, the law enforcement officials and intelligence officials who started the investigations noose what russia did. and now we're seeing this bit by bit being parcelled out just like you wanted it. that does it for us tonight. let's time for the "last word" with lawrence o'donnell. >> i was handed that story ber 35 minutes ago when it broke. i'm watching you on tv knowing you don't know the story has broken way i read things be now, i'm thinking gee, rachel deserves another half hour. i should just let her take a half an hour of this real estate just to react to the story since you were leading -- they're basically referring to what james baker told you friday night in na

but john durham can prosecute.d that the president has promised. who and how and under what circumstances did the whole thing get started. and if anybody committed a crime, is there still enough time left to prosecute them? this is finally coming together in one place at one time before a very experienced prosecutor who has been washington's go-to guy when they need themselves, some aspect of the federal government, investigated. steve: he has gone after the fbi. he has gone after -- >> -- cia. steve: how the cia treated people and where those videotapes went. >> yes. so he is very experienced. you know, it's unusual, having been in law enforcement i can tell you, it's unusual when the target is somebody you work with. ainsley: right. , part of a law enforcement community. steve: that's not what makes it hard. >> it's not unusual for him because he is the guy they keep going to for it. so in my view the attorney general picked the right person at the right time to do this job that the president has been asking for.

the us attorney in connecticut, john durham, investigating the origins of the russia probe.s? >> he is somebody who was unanimously confirmed and investigations under bill clinton, bush and obama and mixed results, some resulted in charges, and resulted in charges of two former fbi agents. someone who isn't hesitant to bring charges if necessary and that will give conservatives and trump supporters a little relief who wondered what is going on with this. how did this get started? some members of congress coming out of different committees, saying there are questions about how the fisa application was signed off on using the dossier, any aspects related to that and whether there were crimes committed. >> notice republicans the democrats to be happy too. and democrat and republican presidents on the line. >> he has bipartisan support. heather: the next one, john huber in 2017, he is separately investigating the russia probe. >> part of his investigation. we learned he was appointed by jeff sessions in 2017 to look at how the fbi and investigators handled the probe into hillary

it is what will happen with john durham. shannon: this is about building up infrastructure for durum to do an investigation and when he does need something to go back through this channel to get it. i want you to respond to senator graham. we will play the soundbite for you. >> william barr will look from a criminal point of view. horowitz will tell us about the fisa warrant, how the department of justice and fbi behaved and i will look at it to make sure it never happens again and we have fisa laws that can depict when someone is giving the court garbage. shannon: if we get more daylight and sunlight on this thing and turns out nobody did anything wrong that would make everybody happy but if there was something done wrong regardless of party should people be worried about the weaponization of any kind of legal or federal agency? >> we should always be worried about politicization of law enforcement. lindsey graham's point, do we need sunlight? we can have as much sunlight on the origins of how it started. i think it has bee

for john durham, united states attorney charged with reviewing the genesis of the trump-russia collision investigation, indictments are his stock and trade. he is looking into the cia role and the fbi role which will inevitably lead them to the roles of susan rice. samantha power, and good old loretta lynch. all compromised by their political agenda to destroy donald trump. and to hell with america. and i told you last week that bill barr was a cool cat. and while the democrats hyperventilate and historically accuse him of everything they can think of and hold him in contempt, he remains lucid, focused and unflappable. he further explained that the history on the left is actually laughable. >> is largely being made to try to discredit me. probably because they may be concerned about the outcome of a review of what happened during the election. but obviously you can look at the face of my testimony and see on his face that there was nothing inaccurate about it. >> now, at the beginning of the open i may have made light of all of this but i do not relish what is happening. rats like these
