and also, this is what, four years of john durham. the mueller investigation was 22 months. >> yeah. katie, "the new york times" website an alert, tells us what the times is reporting. >> the times is reporting we're discussing many of the things that betsy discussed at the top of the show, this is an investigation that durham was careful to say highlights a lot of irregularities and things he thinks are morally, ethically bad judgment, bad calls and bad actions, but not criminal activity and i think that's one of the takeaways this is going to be a huge disappointment to the former president and his supporters. tying together some of the things that betsy and andrew have talked about, this is an inquiry we always forget that began as the kind of review that people who are tasked to work on this team, including nora dana hi, believed was going to do what andrew was talking about. it would look at many of the irregularities and bad actions that inspector general had uncovered, look beyond what ig could do at the cia and nsa, the fbi, as the ig had

of the networks, it's cost a lot of money, it was a nothing burger, meanwhile mueller cost $35 million at two years. >> johnhe was 6.5 in four years. so cost, what, a quarter what mueller did? >> that's right. but there are people looking for more indictments, something else, another shoe to fall, that's not what this is. this is a blueprint of what happened. >> sandra: meanwhile, when it comes to the american people, they want to know what this means for the credibility of the fbi. this is nicole parker on that. >> this is exactly why i left the fbi. something of this nature takes down the entire organization and why americans no longer trust the fbi and it's unfortunate. >> sandra: it's a pretty remarkable statement, we all know nicole parker's story by now, but that's a reasonable question. what should we be thinking about the credibility of the fbi in the wake of this? >> i think there will be more hearings around this report and i think definitely on the house side, i don't know if it will go down the road on the senate side. but you also have lindsey graham putting out a statement saying very aggressi

mueller investigation? >> well, you know, no, i didn't. in fact, johnrview me except in a narrow scope before i went into the grand jury related to the investigation, so had he interviewed me, there would have been a wide variety of things i would have said. first and foremost, the initial allegation was extraordinarily serious. it was potentially a threat to the national security of the united states, and it absolutely merited opening a full investigation. and the ig found it was proper and in accordance with doj and fbi regulations and finally after years of independent investigation, found there was no testimonial or documentary evidence that anybody acted with bias or inappropriately. so this was worth opening. i agreed with opening it. i wrote the opening ec. it absolutely should have been opened and the proof of that again is look at all those people who were found guilty in the course of special counsel mueller's investigation. >> and what do you make of the fact the ever thissy jim jordan apparently would like to bring john durham before congres

let's remember how john durham came to be special counsel. in the middle of 2019 when muelleroncluded his investigation, donald trump was taking to twitter regularly saying, all caps, investigate the investigators. shortly thereafter bill barr appointed john durham to do this investigation. there was a really important and revealing moment. in december of 2019, doj's own inspector general came out with the point that there were missteps, however, there was ample ground to open an investigation. right away john durham came out with a public statement and said i disagree with that. that was three-and-change years ago. it doesn't mean durham's findings are valid or invalid, but no surprise he's come out where he has. >> sara, obviously due ans is not part of donald trump's lexicon or the political lexicon in general. i assume that trump and his allies are going to claim complete exoneration from this report. >> this report doesn't refer to the deep state necessarily. that's not going to stop donald trump from saying the deep state was out to get him. we've also seen house judicia

half the amount of time in terms of what the fbi did and then the mueller investigation was half the amount of time that was taken by johnt he found, there really is nothing new in this report. there's a lot of rehashing of the two trials that he lost where i think it was really poor form for him to basically say, i disagree with the finding of 24 jurors. he wasn't able to convince a single juror that he was correct. he rehashing those two cases. you are right that he does, as the ig did, say the fbi internal practices could be better. notably, andrea, he does not say that it was improper for the fbi to open the investigation. he says it should have been opened -- the term is, as a preliminary investigation, not a full investigation. that is really weak tea, because the ig said it was fine to open as a full investigation. they didn't have to open it as a preliminary investigation. under either one, preliminary or full, the fbi could do exactly what it, in fact, did. i really find this to be a lot of money and a lot of time with not a lot of results. >> the special council is supposed to be independent. how does he explai

. >> reporter: former robert mueller prosecutor now with msnbc. what you have with johnham is a big fat nothing. structuralists pointed out that most of durham's embarrassing findings have been previously reported and no one has gone to jail. former a.g. bill barr says he appointed term simply to gain at the truth. the new york times and the washington post shared a pulitzer prize for coverage of the russia probe. they can find no inaccuracies in the stories. no one intermedia which were so invested in the trump russia story is apologizing or even debated whether they over covered and overhyped it. in hindsight, the brothers treatment of the investigation is hard to defend. trace? >> trace: thank you. let's bring in fox news contributor joe concha. you might think journalists would want to get to the bottom of how they were duped so that they could prepare to vote -- repair the reputation of damage to themselves and their industry. durham's report lays bare white trust in the media lies in tatters. our industry is in a bit of disaster, joe. 's. >> completely. because the

special counsel robert mueller investigated the former president over allegations of coordinating with russia starting in 2016 special counsel johnin 2019 to look into the fbi's conduct during that probe. durham found. the fbi used quote raw and analyzed and uncorroborated intelligence. in the mueller investigation. the fbi says it has made reforms now to ensure better oversight on surveillance programs. it really is a pleasant evening and progress, but we have a huge change in your tuesday forecast the weather outlook is on deck and coming up next right now to heather holmes and a closer look at some of the stories we're working on for the seven o'clock news on ktvu, plus heather going to stay on top of that protest happening in san francisco over the d a s decision. not to charge a security guard and the death of a suspected shoplifter . our legal analyst is going to join, join us live to break down the self defense claims in this case, as the video that you see here of the shooting has now gone public. plus troubles after conservatorship i talked with tmz about the new documentary airing tonight here on ktvu examining the pop

john durham is, what the assignment was. >> yeah, poppy. our story begins four years ago, spring of 2019, when a different special counsel robert mueller wasup his report. robert mueller found that russia did try to interfere in the 2016 presidential election and the trump campaign knew about and expected to benefit from that experience. however, mueller also found there was no criminal conspiracy between donald trump and russians. well, trump very quickly declared victory. he claimed no collusion, no obstruction, not exactly an accurate take on mueller's findings and donald trump began this refrain, investigate the investigators. what happened a couple weeks later? sure enough, donald trump's attorney general bill barr named john durham and told him to look into the origins of the russia investigation. durham by the way had been a trump-appointed u.s. attorney but also been a federal prosecutor for 35 plus years. >> but also praised by democrats like chris murphy and merrick garland the attorney general and the president joe biden left him in place. walk us through his findings. >> big report yesterday. 300 plus pages. here are the key fi

we have had mueller investigate, horwitz investigate calm john durham investigate and the question ofe question of a criminal conspiracy to steal the 2016 election is not something that has a real, evidentiary basis. that is what the fbi was looking into. that was what the investigation sought out to figure out. when it comes to collusion between trump and russia, it is just not there. it is problematic. a lot of the things that the fbi did and the steps that they took and they are reliance on the dossier. it is a big deal to find out the fbi was relying on what could be seen as opposition research documents to obtain secret surveillance warrants. i keep hammering away at that issue, but right now, fisa authorities have used comment that the government says is key to combating terrorism, combating chinese espionage. that authority is up for reauthorization at the end of this year and there is a lot of questions about whether that is going to be reauthorized because of the mistrust that has been generated towards the fbi because of how they misuse the fisa court in 2017. that is a sign

special counsel john durham was appointed in 2019 to look into the fbi's conduct during the mueller probe allegations that the trump campaign coordinated with russia. durham found. the fbi used quote, an analyzed and uncorroborated intelligence in the mueller investigation. the fbi says it has made reforms to ensure better oversight on surveillance programs. vice president kamala harris is making good on a bet following the warriors lost to the lakers in the western conference semifinals. she posted that photo yesterday wearing that lakers jersey she made the deal with her husband, who is a lakers fan. the vp is from oakland. of course, a warriors fan, she said. deal is a deal, though dub nation always even though she's wearing that jersey the lakers responded to her tweet saying, thank you, madam vice president. an animal shelter in ukraine is seeing the ongoing war through the eyes of cats and dogs abandoned because of the fighting. the war forced millions of ukrainians to flee the country. unable to bring their pets along, they had to make the difficult decision of leaving behind their

. >> john: i read the article that you wrote about hunter biden and the foreign agents registration act, you say robert muellerhat thing like a stick and beat just about every trump administration official he could with it, including paul manafort, but when it comes to fara, potential violations by hunter biden may make what manafort did pale in comparison. >> yeah, what's curious, the leaks from the department of justice refer to a couple of tax possible counts and gun charge but never included fara in the news accounts and for some of us who covered the paul manafort case and the cases during the trump administration, is just odd because the department of justice was using fara very aggressively not that long ago, but also these emails are filled with contacts and foreign interests, including some connected to foreign governments and arrangements, including direct contacts between hunter biden and tony blinken and other officials during the obama administration. >> john: and we know blinken contacted mike murrel to blinken, and sent a letter to others in the intelligence community, including our dan hoffman

mueller, of course, finding no evidence of collusion. then trump had his attorney general bill barr name johnham to investigate the investigators and predicted he'd find the crime of the century. durham didn't have much luck in the courts. now, four years after he started, durham's harshly critical report saying he relied on raw, unanalyzed and uncorroborated intelligence along with seriously flawed information has plunged us all back into the same old, familiar debate, the story that seemingly will never end. i'm howard kurtz and this is the "mediabuzz." ♪ ♪ ♪ howard: the report by special counsel john durham exploded like a neutron bomb, and the media are deeply divided over his conclusion that the fbi acted on such flimsy evidence that its investigation of possible collusion between donald trump and the kremlin never should have been launched. first among those claiming vindication, the former president. >> this was a coup that they were looking at. these are sick people. howard: and many of those on fox news and elsewhere joined in castigating the mainstream media's handling of the 300-pa

mueller's probe. he did not find sufficient evidence of a criminal conspiracy between president trump, his associates and russia. while johnigated to examine the russia allegations, he still is critical of the bureau's work on social media, trump posted e an ps scammefoer fbi assistan director, robert anderson. >> it has been a big deal and i hope we have clarified all these things that have caused this problem. in the end , i hope it never happens again. >> reporter: monday the fbi released a statement saying it's leadership has implemented dozens of corrective actions that is says could have prevented missteps made in 2016. >> even with the changes that the fbi said it is made, john durham recommends a new position be created to handle politically sensitive investigations in the future. >> this is a pretty big deal. this report, we noted, it mentions how the fbi engaged with the hillary clinton campaign at the time. tell us more about what you found out about that. >> john durham's report said the fbi treated the trump and clinton campaigns differently, in particular when it came to information about russia involvement i

john durham was investigating the origin of the fbi original investigation into whether president trump's campaign colluded with russia to influence the 2016 election, right? special counsel robert mueller found no collusion and we moved on. durham investigated why did they begin that investigation in the first place and now found there was no reason to start that. we learned in the durham report and been reporting is was opposition research campaign from the hillary clinton campaign that went awrie and weaponed the community. >> ashley: talk about the john durham report, they kind of talked about it, didn't correct anything. they didn't say, we were wrong, we shouldn't have said this, none of that and people said, this is nothing. this is nothing. there is bias in the media when it comes to what leads to perception of donald trump and biden and this warped perception of these two people who were running for president and who more than likely will be the people running in 2024 and i don't say this lightly, i'm saying with donald trump, there would be a crawl on the bottom of all the media pages and on tv of everything donald trump, we were inundated and they missed the mark. last hour,

special counsel john durham looking into the reasons and methods behind the fbi investigation into donald trump, and any potential connections with russia. a different report, the muellernd no criminal conspiracy between the campaign andusthe durham investigation c later, after allegations the fbi lied on some of the original documents that launched the trump investigation. durham accuses the agency of acting negligently and the report casts further doubt on the so-called steele dossier and its claims. >> both staffers at congressman jerry connelly's office attacked by a man with a bat, have been released from the hospital. here is representative connelly with the latest. >> i spent some time in the hospital visiting both of my staffers who were injured, and i'm pleased to say that both have now been released from the hospital. so that's a real hopeful sign in terms of the nature of their injuries and their recovery. obviously trauma is a different matter. one of the staffers who was injured, she's an intern and today was her first day. so imagine your first day in the office, someone comes in with a baseball bat and beats you. >> the man was captured. this happened at

john brennan briefed obama she was up to doing this. they watched it play out and watch launching of this fbi investigation into the campaign to when he was president-elect and we get the mueller report and not separate is the twitter files which show social media working against trump's second attempt and the mark zuckerberg-bucks to stop trump from winning again. this has to be intimidating for a republican that is trying to win president. this is working against you. we have known the deep state was alive and well, we didn't know the deep stay heavily plays in criminal law enforcement agencies. end of the day, founding fathers made a wise choice by not putting the power to run elections in the hands of the federal government, put it with the state. you have massive behemeth of law enforcement agency that can affect those and that imperils structure of the constitution and we need major overhaul. >> brian: fbi had their hands in social media same time they were investigating trump. this is insane. >> pulling levers from etch00 side. there was a push and a pull and no point did anyone above or below the line officers in charge of this, call foul, even though they had reason t

john durham said he thought investigators did not and could not corroborate any of the substantive allegations contained in the christopher steele reporting. the initial fbi investigation was the basis for special council robert mueller'sbe. robert mueller did not find suspicious evidence between conspiracy between president trump, his associates in russia. while jordan acknowledges the fbi was obligated to examine the rush allegations, he is still critical of the bureau's work. on social media, trump posted the american public was scammed . former fbi assistant director , robert anderson. >> it has been a big deal and i hope we have clarified all these things that have caused this problem. in the end, i hope it never happens again. >> reporter: monday the fbi released a statement saying it's leadership has already implemented dozens of corrective actions that it says, could have prevented the steps made in 2016. >> what do we do with this? even within the changes the fbi said it is made , john durham recommends that a new position be created to handle politically sensitive investigations in the future. >> it will change a lot of things moving forward. in this report, we also saw they brought up the hillary clinton cam

know at the time when donald trump sauntered down to john kelly's office to do an impromptu remark about how much he wanted to meet with robert mueller had just met with his lawyers and agreed there was no way he was sitting with mueller. >> that's when they go for written responses. >> it's very soon after they cancel the helicopter that's going to go to camp david for the planned interview p. it's just, to me, this moment connects with the moment you are so perfectly zeroing in on today. donald trump is the master in his own mind of the legal strategy but more importantly the communication strategy. and he is the guy who has decided, neal pointed this out beautifully, he's decided i'm going to break my own news, it's unjust, outrageous and unfair i'm being investigated. i asked the attorney general for help because i know the charngs charges are looking like they're likely. we've been hearing at the post for weeks now that the case is nearly cooked and it's expected there will be charges. those have not gone to the attorney general yet but it's looming and donald trump knows that too. >> do you have a sense? it sounds like from the

mueller did and respectful of the work the inspector general, michael horowitz did, and what's impressive, it's not argumentative. he essentially allowed the witnesses and the documents to sing for themselves. >> john: andy, we'll see if it goes anywhere. but again, your opinion on what durham found really depends on where you sit as it does with so many things these days. andy, thanks so much. kim strassel made the point where aren't all the reporters angry at their sources for feeding them, lack of a better phrase, b.s. on all of this. and "new york times" and washington post win prizes? >> sandra: and the white house press briefing before the top of the hour, and what revelations the white house gets in this. >> john: i bet a dollar the only questions they get come from jacqui heinrich. >> sandra: you want me to take the other side of that bet? >> john: no, just saying i'll put a dollar down. >> sandra: i'll bring you an apple. >> john: i'll bet with myself. [bleep] [bleep] >> sandra: remember that? early april, left wing activists ambushing former ncaa swimmer riley gaines after a speech on women's sports? one of the latest incidents of violence from the left. now a house subcommittee wants ans

john durham report. >> it was a success in that its purpose from the very quinning was to get to the truth. it was not launched as a criminal investigation and people compare it to the mueller. i asked him to get to the bottom of it, get his arms around the truth. if he found crimes, we could prosecute them. but i think that's what he has done. he has dug into. if and i think he has gotten as close to the bottom as anyone is going to get to this. >> bret: republicans are, you know, saying why isn't there more? why aren't more people held accountable? democrats are saying there's nothing here. they are looking at the same 300 pages. >> i said last night this is troublesome. for anyone that believes that someone should not be held accountable to for this i think is not being honest about what government should do and how people believe their relationship to their government is two things i liked about it was positive. first, christopher wray and i think mr. durham acknowledges has cleaned up. so investigative excesses here which is a positive. and, two, i hope the fbi gets back to doing what it does best, which is protecting the nation against domestic and foreign threats and
