it seems very much at the department of justice are in the -- that at the department of justice are in the headlines about what is going on in the country, if not the protest in portland or kenosha, if it is issues about covid and restrictions and whether they should be followed or not, if it is not about the election and concerns about the legality of elections, procedures to the election, not to mention the number of cases involving administration officials and the doj role as those cases through the system. i think we have a lot to talk about. i want to start with the big question. does it really look different to you? does it look like a different environment when the two of you were at the department of justice? are we just overreacting? let's begin with you because you were there the longest time ago. and i have the gray hair. of what has the department looked like, we are talking about national security today in particular, what does it look like over the last number of years, bringing us up to the present moment. in getting ready for today's conversation, i decided to go and lo

there were politicized issues within the department of justice, and then sort of a recalibration after. do you want to put this in perspective in how you see it, given your knowledge of the history of the department? david: i want to thank you as well for setting this up. knowned both josh's who more than i do about the justice department. thank you for the institutional government plug. [laughter] i still have more on that. and i am a nerd, so let me get that out there. him that much about the justice department, i had worked more overseas as a journalist. the key thing for me is understanding the modern justice department, and you understand it through the example of john mitchell, richard nixon's attorney general, who used his office to investigate the vietnam war protesters, black panthers, and other groups, as a way to reinforce president nixon's messaging about chaos in the country, the need for law and order. mitchell, he left his post as attorney general and then famously chaired president nixon's reelection campaign and then ended up going to jail for his actions as his role i

for people like pete and me to express enormous confidence in the integrity of people at the department of justicetinely confronted with this. whether it's in republican or democratic administrations, this is really off the chart in terms of what has happened to the department of justice. and particularly on 9/11, which is a time that lots of people in the department of justice are extremely proud of being there and having been able to do some small thing for the country, it is really difficult to watch what the attorney general is doing to the rule of law. >> andrew, along those lines, i would like to ask you about something else that happened today, and it's about the michael flynn prosecution. obviously that has been a long and crazy road at this point. but where it stands now, as you know, is that the justice department under william barr is trying to drop those charges, and a judge has fought for the right to be able to interrogate that decision by the justice department. today -- i'm going to read you -- you probably read this today, but it's for our viewers. i want to read you something wri

general bill barr in his own words last night on the career men and women who make up the department of justice. >> name one successful organization or institution where the lowest level employees' decision are deemed is sacros sacrosanct there aren't any good leaders at the department of justice need to trust and support their subordinates that doesn't mean blindly deferring to whatever the subordinates want to do. >> now important to remember that barr has repealed career prosecutors over his interventions in the cases of two of the president's closest criminal pals. felon roger stone and felon mike flynn. barr said the obama administration had some of the people in mueller's office writing their broiefs for the supreme court. maybe that explains something. barr's comment was seen as a direct attack on michael dreban. he was a long time lawyer and is considered one of this country's foremost experts on criminal law. barr's war on the department he leads is where we start. former acting solicitor general is here and former chief spokesman for the justice department matt miller, and devlin barr

what he has turned the justice department into and how he has really debased the justice department to whatever is necessary to get the president's back no matter how outrageous. >> the term i was searching for then would be legal welfare is what the president is on. people complain about what they call welfare. the president is getting legal welfare right now. >> yes. >> so we watched the attorney general distort the facts and the law regarding the mueller report, ukraine, the firing of jeffrey berman u.s. attorney for the southern district of new york, and mail-in ballot fraud. is that happening here? what is going on? >> yeah, don. this is part of a pattern, nothing new for william barr. this is what he has done through his entire tenure. this guy has no bottom. he will twist the facts. he will twist the law. he will make up garbage like this. whatever it takes to defend the president. it is no different than the way, like you said, he spun the mueller report. he tried to squash the ukraine whistle-blower complaint. he jumped into the flynn and stone cases and tried to fire my old b

to freeze the justice department, to freeze the justice system for prosecuting her for the e-mail.ter trump one to desperation increase because they knew potentially they were going to be subject to criminal investigation, what do you do you take out general flynn, you freeze jeff sessions from doing anything by falsely accusing him of misconduct and leaking information about him, you get the special counsel appointed and freeze the department completely for years, the troubling thing the justice department still frozen, why are we only finding out about this detail now, if durin if jerome g his job they wouldn't do about it the minute they got in. this is the worst kept secret in washington and the fact that is coming out a month before the election says more about the deep state cover-up then the underlying issue which is always been apparent that hillary clinton was a crook and trying to get away with it by smearing trump. lou: the president has been right, not for four years but better than six years because he has been talking about crooked hillary throughout and he does right

as of right now, because of will qualm barr's justice department -- william barr's justice departmentting away with it. it's that straightforward to me. am i wrong? >> no. james comey leaked and lied and stole president trump's fbi files. lou: no, but am i wrong about attorney general barr and his department? i know what comey did. >> well -- lou: that he's guilty of. so do the american people. >> and comey was referred for prosecution, and they decided not to do anything. attorney general barr did. mccabe, he lied, they decided not to do anything about it. so attorney general barr is deciding to let some of these bad guys off. we're being told that maybe they'll be prosecuted later, you know? i just don't buy it. but i'm hopeful. who knows, lou, maybe we're wrong. i hope we're wrong. lou: yeah, i'd like to think we're wrong, but i do know this: attorney general barr is sure as hell wrong. tom fitton, thanks so much. appreciate it. for being right all the time. >>> up next, president trump receives his third nomination -- did you hear me? -- receives his third nomination for a nobel p

two, the second bucket the work he's doing within the justice department and he has used the justice department to crack down on the president's perceived enemies. mayors and governors across the country who have disagreed with the president from the pandemic and how to deal with protesters. seattle, portland, where the president goes, where the president criticizes we see the justice department take action soon after, whether that's signing legal papers and lawsuits against those mayors and governors. whether it's threatening litigation on behalf of the justice department. >> and even defending the president, coming to his defense. let's talk for a moment, katie, about what message does this send? essentially when you look at it, doj officials being involved in the campaign, a lot of people are concern it may have long-term consequences for the state of the department of justice, which is now in some people's eyes casting doubts about the very elections in this country. >> yes, i mean, it would be helpful to take a step back, basically pre-watergate and up through the nixon administr

attorney john durham has resigned from the department of justice. e just learned this over the last couple of hours. her name is nora danahy. she was part of the never trump resistance within the department of justice. this development follows the release of documents by judicial watch about the special counsel robert mueller's efforts to, well, control information and perhaps hide evidence. showing that at least 27 cell phones, all of them belonging to members of the mueller special counsel team including, of course, andrew weissmann and lisa page, they were wiped clear of data before the doj inspector general could are view them. those phones had been -- well, the i.g. had insisted on those phones being turned over. there, apparently, were no consequences whatsoever for the wiping of the phones. rino senate judiciary chair lindsey graham responded to that news by suggesting more damning information will soon be released. >> the question is, did they obstruct justice. did they intentionally delete information from their phone because horowitz was on

just to recap what happened there, there were career prosecutors a to the justice department who had been investigating stone. many were from mueller's office, the office of special counsel. they had already charged him with seven felonies, including obstructing congress and they were moving forward with sentencing when they started to get pressure from timothy shay, who was then the u.s. attorney for the district attorney. and as prosecutor aaron zelensky

all of a sudden the justice department puts out a press relief talking about this. what is unusual about this, not that the justice department would investigate allegations of election fraud, but the fact that it was made public to the american people that these were trump ballots. it was as if people inside the justice department were trying to furnish the president his team here at the white house, the trump campaign with an ah-ha we got them sort of moment, when these kinds of episodes, these anecdotal pieces of evidence that come across from time to time that there might be election fraud going on, they have to be investigated. that's what the pennsylvania attorney general was saying, this is an example of the system working. they found a case where something needed to be investigated. but the fact that the justice department would put out a press release saying oh, by the way we found some -- or investigating some trump ballots discarded, i think that raises some alarm bells and obviously this is a case people are going to be closely watching. one wrinkle we sh

the fact that it was announced before it was completed by the department of justice. the fact that the department of justice is investigating ballots in a state in pennsylvania and is not the local officials. and then the fact that attorney general barr briefed president trump on an ongoing investigation. a lot of election experts were kind of questioning how that could even happen and what the goal would be. and then the thing that's almost the most unusual from almost everyone i've spoken to about this is that in their announcement, the department of justice revealed these ballots were cast for president trump. they got it wrong the first time, but when they corrected it, they still said there were seven ballots cast for the president, and that is completely immaterial to their investigation. it doesn't matter who they were cast for if they're actually investigating the ballots and whether they were discarded improperly. >> that's right. the ballot being discarded improperly is itself the problem regardless of whether the person votes for donald trump or writes in mi

andrew, as you mention the department of justice has this norm not to announce any investigation 60 toan election, anything that can be done either by the department of justice, other federal prosecutors that could delay or fore the hand of the attorney general or john durham not to release an interim report or any information about this investigation until after the election. >> the answer to that is probably no, what you can rely on is the integrity of career prosecutors, to not be a part of such a violation of clear norms. you can also potentially subpoena ms. dannehy to find out what her concerns were and obviously a congressional subpoena she would have to comply on. and one thing just to pick up on things that ryan and ken have talked about, one thing that's remarkable here, you have john durham doing an investigation that's already been done. so, you really have this specter of what is bill barr trying to personally accomplish, why does he need to do an investigation when the inspector general of the department of the justice has done an investigation, an exhaustive investigatio

and that's this justice department and this state department.hose americans who thought there ought to be accountability over those issues with this new add administration, and the president's being terribly undermined here because i suspect he'd be outraged. they probably tell the president, oh, you can't get involved in any of this. my view is he should order a transparency revolution right now. are lease everything. who knows what else is out there. lou: yeah. i would say it this way, tom, that if this attorney general and this justice department does not produce indictments against the politically corrupt criminals of the justice department and the fbi, then the president has, it seems to me, no other choice than to declassify all of the documents and i mean dump them into the public arena well, a month before that election so the american people can vote with sure knowledge of what the facts are are who the mal job factors are. tom fitton, appreciate you being with us. pastor jeffress joins us next, we'll be right back. i'm a verizon engine

thing for people like me expressing enormous confidence in the integrity of people in the department of justice people are not routinely confronted with this. whether it is republican or democratic administration, this is really off the chart in terms of what has happened to the department of justice and particularly on 9/11 which is a time that a lot of people in the department justice are extremely proud are being there and having able to do some small things for the country. it is difficult to watch what the attorney general is doing to the rule of law. >> and along those lines, ill li i would like to ask you about something else and it is about the michael flynn's situation. the justice department under william barr is trying to drop those charges and the judge fought for the right to be able to interrogate that decision by the justice department. i am going to read you and you probably read it but for our viewers. i want to read you something written by a court appointed essentially advocate in the flynn's case. appointed by the judge to argue that flynn should not have the charges dropped

local police departments and for them to reform. >> congress thought it was important for the justice department and engage systemic reform in police departments around theountry. >> cobb: vanita gupta ran the civil rights division of the justice department uer president obama. >> we are here today to announce a landmark settlement agreement between the justice department and the city of albuquerque. ...an exhaustive review of the eveland division of police... ...the challenges related to policing in the city of baltimore. t >> cob office used its power aggressively, opening 25 new investigations into law enforcement agencies for civil rights violations. all but a few ended up inen agts to carry out reforms. many of those were court- enforced consent decrees. how effective have these decrees been? >> so they've been really effective. and look, they're not... the net result of our work in a policeepartment does not result in a peect police depament. i don't think there is such a thing as a perfect police department. but we have seen in police departments over and over again-- small and big-- that

it is not part of the traditional work of the department of justice. and this is why you have thousands of former department of justice employees expressing their outrage at how he is doing his job. >> you know, dana, i want to play a clip in exchange i had with the attorney general. and he was explaining why he doesn't believe there is systemic racism in u.s. law enforcement. listen to this. do you think black people are treated differently by law enforcement than white people? >> i think there are some situations where statistics would suggest that they are treated differently. but i don't think that that's necessarily racism. you know, like didn't jesse jackson say that when he looks behind him and he sees a group of young black males walking behind him, he's more scared than when he sees a group of white youths walking behind him. does that make him a racist? >> what did you think about that, dana? >> as he was saying that i was googling to see if i could find that jesse jackson statement. maybe he said it a long time ago. i couldn't find it recentl

, i love the department of justice, and i love the people in the department of justice. but, as i say, the legitimacy in our system comes from political supervision and political accountability. >> should the supreme court have the exclusive power to interpret the constitution? [laughter] a.g. barr: yes. [laughter] >> this is not my question but i will sharpen it. the president takes an oath to uphold -- a.g. barr: let me say that i think president jackson was correct, that each branch has, in the first instance, the responsibility to interpret the constitution and what they think the constitution means. and so, if the president believes that he has the power to do something under the constitution, he should be able to exercise that power. and if the court disagrees and orders him not to, then he's lost the case. >> that is what i thought. what is your favorite song to play on the bagpipes? [laughter] a.g. barr: there are too many. it's not songs. they're called tunes. >> "scotland the brave." a.g. barr: well, that's a very common one. that's the one that you see on the

. >> the president's touting unusual announcement from the department of justice about, quote, discarded ballots in pennsylvania. can you just explain what he is talking about now? and also, is the department of justice basically part of the trump campaign, now? >> well, i mean, you know, opinions vary, on that front, anderson. and we are going to have to see how this plays out, in the coming weeks. but i don't think this was a welcome sign today, just on the face of it. earlier in the day, the president was on fox radio talking about how ballots for president trump were found in the trash can. then, kayleigh mcenany, at the white house briefing, was talking about nine trump ballots in pennsylvania that were discarded. and then, all of a sudden, the justice department puts out a press release talking about this. what is unusual about this, anderson, not that the justice department would investigate election fraud or allegations of election fraud or discarded ballots. it's the fact that it -- it was made public to the american people that these were trump ballots. it was as if people insi

all of this is coming out in the justice department has little or nothing to do with it. act there usually obstructing us, state department holding back information on biden in the information we just received. they have been sitting on it for eight or nine months. i tell you, i am not a cynic because if i were judicial watch would not be doing the work. but we are doing on behalf of the american people because the justice department and the fbi in the deep state are a wall. lou: another thing as you mentioned, the ukraine u.s. embassy would have been -- they are the ones who let poor john solomon and lou dobbs that were being monitored. [laughter] >> you are on the list. lou: if it weren't for you. >> you are a crime victim to. you and the president. lou: i am too. i am really proud of the fact that i'm on the enemies list of the people trying to overthrow the president. i will take that every time. and i know you will as well. thank you for all your good work you did on that. i want to turn to mail-in ballots, the former vice president who is referred to as vice presiden

undermined the morale in the department and the reason why most basically has been that the justice departmentreally based on a way of doing business and an ethic and a desire, a belief idealistically that the department of justice is there to apply the law even handedly and fairly and not be influenced politically. so the career people there have sat and watched as all of these things have happened and i think it's been, you know, reports i've had from various people, i have not myself spoken with many people at all in the department, but it's real clear, i think, that the morale is exceedingly low for all those reasons. now the question of whether someone resigns or not is a really hard question i think you saw the other day in the context of the durham investigation that his chief assistant, i believe she is norah dannehy resigned she did it quietly the talk is in the media that she did it because she was feeling pressured most probably, but the act of a prosecutor or the act of anyone in a position of public trust of resigning essentially in protest against misconduct can be a very, very p

up next, attorney general bill barr unloads on his own justice department and the media, we'll explain. here's what fox affiliates around the country. in philadelphia police hunt for suspects after a hail of gunfire left two men dead and two men wounded on a city basketball court, officers found four victims in a park in the city's spring garden neighborhood last night. if crew members on a dive boat in los angeles caught fire, they were never instructed on emergency procedures. national transportation safety board investigators say that because of that blaze aboard the conception remains undetermined. this is a live look at miami, one of the big stories there -- police officers respond to a report of a monkey on the front and near tampa. police ended up with a foot pursuit and were eventually able to detain the tiny primate and get him back to his owner. that is tonight's live look outside the beltway from "special report," we'll be right back. new advil dual action with acetaminophen fights pain in two ways. advil targets pain at the source... ...while acetaminophen blocks pain signa

also with us, department of justice veteran in both republican and democratic administrations. he is also former u.s. assistant attorney. so, david, even though this incident in pennsylvania, the trump administration and the department of justice were pointing to, trying to make a big deal about. turned out to be, basically, nothing. is how the doj handled it, in any way, appropriate? or how -- or similar to how they normally handle investigations? >> absolutely not. it couldn't be more disturbing, anderson. what happened today is just at latest example of how the president of the united states is trying to turn the justice department into his personal petting zoo. and the attorney general is acting at his aider and abetter. it's grossly -- policy for prosecutors to make public statements about pending suppressions. to comment on those investigations, particularly in a way that is favorable for a candidate to elected office, here, the president of the united states. and to do so in close proximity to an election. all those run directly counter to bedrock principle and policy of

this wasn't just a question of coordination between the white house and the department of justice. i dare say this is out right collusion between the white house and the department of justice. and the rollout, the public rollout of comments about a pending investigation expressly intended to benefit the president poll litically. >> rick, we had tom- freeman on the program last night that is legitimately worried about the president encouraging violence if he doesn't get his way on the election. are you worried about what's going on? are you worried about american democracy? >> i know that last night on the program, he said it was a six-alarm fire. i had a piece calling it a five-alarm fire. we might have a slight difference. here is what i think. we face a small risk of a kas s to -- catastrophe. will remake it through where one candidate has enough of a margin, it won't be plausible to contest the election. if the election is close and it comes to looking at ballots in pennsylvania and whether or not there were minor problems how the ballots were counted, i think we could be in for

against prominent political figures or launching debilitating investigations that thrust the department of justiceo the middle of the political process. lou: and now it is time for the attorney general's actions to match his comments and, one hopes, to purge his department of the corrupt attorneys who have been using politics as a basis for their every action, not just prosecution. for the first time, the justice department has admitted the corrupt origins of obamagate. director of national intelligence john ratcliffe last week released documents of a fisa court opinion to the justice department. in that opinion the court wrote this, quote: the government acknowledges that there were material omissions, and the court has found violations of the government's duty of candor in all four applications. in previous filings the justice department had admitted only there were errors in two of those fisa applications. >>> up next, china joe biden doesn't seem to cower about the major swing -- cower about the major swing state of michigan this november. we'll take that up with republican national committee

i'm going to do what the justice department says should be done, should be done and not politicize itost dangerous thing that's happened so far is the politicization of the department of justice. it's become the department of trump and that's wrong. mayor vi lyles: thank you mr. vice president for the very, very heartfelt feelings, but more importantly for having policies that really follow who you are as a person. so on behalf of all of the people that are here today, thank you for giving us your time, but more importantly, giving us the changes that you see for our country. we really appreciate that. mr. biden: who's the fellow who runs 26 organizations for housing? public? i know we didn't get a chance to talk. because i think what you're doing is incredibly consequential. and i like to give you a paper on the way out of what i think we can and should do. it's very detailed and i'd love your feedback. i'll put a phone number on it, okay? because it is a gigantic, gigantic, gigantic undertaking. and unless we can get people into housing, unless we can provide for housing, unless we

he is the personal lawyer of that case and not the justice department. unusual is this and what's the argument? >> it's unusual here, jim largely because of just how broadly the justice department is construing the president's official duties arguing that when he allegedly defamed jane carroll he was doing it in the capacity as president. that was not ridiculous as if a food inspector hits your car with his government vehicle while he's on the job, we usually do have the justice department come in and defend him against a negligence lawsuit. what's weird about this case, jim, is the president in a capacity where it's not clear he was doing anything presidential and the timing, doj should have made this argument a year ago when this case was filed that they waited until yesterday, the deadline for discovery suggests this is less about the substance of principle and more about doing whatever they can to avoid letting that go forward. >> yeah. >> so, if i understand this right, if the justice department prevails in this by proving yes, the president was a f

it happens to be the first time we will hear from him since that extraordinary move by the justice department to defend the president in a different case. looking to replace president trump's personal legal team with government lawyers to argue on his behalf in a defamation suit brought by a woman who claims he sexually assaulted her as she sexually assaulted him in the '90s. the president denied the allegations saying it never happened. we're taking you to that news conference live. >>> we'll also take you inside this hearing room, you're about to see on capitol hill, where two top health officials are testifying on the race for a coronavirus vaccine. and you can bet they'll be asked about the global setback, the trial for one of the leading vaccine candidates on hold, plus what a patient in that trial is telling us. >>> and 2020, with joe biden trying to turn the tide in the one area where polling shows the president is doing better than him, the economy. biden, in michigan, to talk about his plan to build back better as president trump gets back from his own battleground state swing. the s

all actions of agencies and employees of the department of justice are vested in the attorney general. and because the attorney general's ultimately are accountable for every decision the department makes i and my predecessors have an obligation to ensure that we make the correct decision the attorney general the assistant attorneys general are not figureheads we are supervisors. our job is to supervise anything less is the abdication of active engagement is by senior official essential to the rule of law. the essence of the rule of law is whatever will you apply in one cases what you i in a similar case treating each person equally before the law how the department enforces the law. we should not prosecute someone for wire fraud in manhattan not equally pursue in madison or montgomery but allow prosecutors in one division with the theory of another division were not deployed against someone who is engaged and indistinguishable conduct. we must strive for consistency and that is another reason why centralized senior leadership exists to harmonize the disparate views of many pr

justice department policy calls for keeping voter fraud investigations under wraps to avoid effectingd it was almost unheard of for the department to provide an update on the case and disclose the name of the candidate for whom the ballots had been cast. so i count at least three of the department's own practicing having been violated here, disclosing a new investigation, opening the ballots, and revealing for whom people had voted. what's going on? >> well, this is a highly unusual way of dealing with an ongoing investigation. and as neal was pointing out, the advantageous thing is that it fits in in a way we haven't seen before. in this case, the president can say his voters, votes were not being counted, that they were being discarded and that helps advance that narrative with his base and it really softens the ground as he is softening the ground in other areas by contending justice department and that the election, there may be questions about the election coming up to it, saying he won't take the results. this gives his base the ammunition they're looking for. >> barr also brief

to get the justice department involved.obably strings out the case and you delay it past the logistics. it's a weird one. the conduct occurred back in the 90s. it's hard to explain. and i'm sure there's a lawyer someone -- and i'm not a lawyer, but i have watched a lot of "law & order." what i would argue is you don't want open season on the president while he's the sitting president so you're trying to guard against future presidents, especially those running for re-election. but i agree with bakari, having the doj involved in the case that doesn't have anything to do with sitting presidential conduct, it's a weird one. >> defamation did happen while he was president, sos that the thin legal read they're resting it on. but there's something slightly analogous in the clinton administration that the doj never did defend the president at all. on legal matter, you know ben ginsburg, i would imagine, from bush world. ben ginsbebegin guinnessburg ha synonymous with election law. he wrote an op-ed responding to the president's re
