would devin nunez and don jr. be undertaking these activities without telling donald trump what they are doing? >> there is no way that donald trump does not know what's happening. while he may not have been the most hand-on manager there is, the whole structure that he creates is one in which people are aiming to please him? that is a structure he creates. the notion that chris christie didn't know this was happening is utterly ridiculous. what he created too was a structure where people were doing all these things for the express purpose of pleasing him. the same thing with donald trump. that's why devin nunez has been caught running over there all the time, spending so much time there. he is trying to also curry favor with donald trump. that's why all of his pundits who support him get on tv and perform simply for donald trump. so the notion that he would somehow not know this when the entire structure around him is based on pleasing him. the fact that paul ryan and all of these people sat around the table and

whatever you think about the nunez memo is still there. think the colors right, if they want to attend this at least facilitate a public conversation about what happened there ways to do it. think it's because there's either a believe that there is a witchhunt and there is probability in the part of the president or this is all a coordinated and sustained effort and distraction and misdirection and delegitimization to mitigate the damage if and when it gets to the point where it's hitting closer to home think those are the options. >> host: wouldn't the inclusion of papadopoulos the that republicans are making the case it's happening before there should be separation of the two within the document. >> i think you heard that yesterday. the memo doesn't bear upon the broader legitimacy is started indirectly before the fights application so folks even if you accept at face value that the memo does what it says and everything is true it doesn't get us to what people hoped would be the bottom line. again, the investigation should take its cours

and devin nunez is trying to mud dit water.hatever this has to do with the president, this is a matter of national security. what the russians are doing is undermining the very democratic values that we are all supposed to be protecting. and devin nunez is throwing that all under the bus just to try to protect president trump. so i don't believe anything that he says about the democratic memo or his own for that matter. >> how about what the president himself said about how that mem moat republican memo totally vindica vindicated him. >> how can anybody that thinks believe that? totally vindicated him? all it said was that the dossier was involved in getting a fiesing warrant on one page, one person. if president trump thinks that's all the evidence that's involved in the russia investigation, i won't go through the list i listed a minute ago, then he's not paying attention. but it's not an accident. president trump wants to confuse people. i was on the air with a radio with a conservative radio host talking about a different t

let's talk about devin nunez? what do we make of him, with papadopoulos saying he didn't have any connection with the president. we have this picture. this is pretty devastating. they do know each other. they're sitting at the table together. trump's bragged about this guy. he's sitting a couple of seats from the president and now nunez comes out on television this morning and says, they don't know each other. what's he talking about? sounds crazy. >> trump is trying to disassociate himself from both papadopoulos and carter page but he during the campaign said they were both foreign policy advisers. >> yeah. >> here's the connection between the two. around the same time that carter page is going to moscow and saying all of these very favorable things about the russians, george papadopoulos is saying that we need to send somebody, we, meaning the trump campaign, we need to send somebody to russia but it can't be the big guy. it can't be trump. and low and behold, who goes to russia? carter page. >> yeah. a cutout.

nunez claims the only changes that were made were grammaticalal. chuck schumer and nancy pelosi are calling paul ryan to remove nunez as chairman of the house intelligence committee. this news today the chair of the senate homeland security committee ron johnson is requesting texts, earn mail and other records from 16 fbi and doj employees. including former fbi director james comey and former fbi, former deputy fbi director andrew mccabe. so the war on the fbi has now moved to the senate. a lot to get to today. let's kick it off with our reporters. kelly o'donnell is at the white house. pete williams is in our washington newsroom. and betsy wood destructive. pete, let's start with you. the fbi does not want this memo out there. they are wrangling for redactions. what can they do >> i don't think they've decided. here's the deal. if the president says i don't have any objection, in other words poses no objection to the house releasing the memo then we get into this strange situation where it becomes public but not declassified. it may sound weird bu

house intel chairman, devon nunez, a trump ally who once worked on the transition helped to write the document, has been pushing for it to be made public, a party line vote in the committee set the release in motion. and the president who had the power to prevent it signed off on it. the core of the memo raises questions about the fbi surveillance of former trump campaign adviser carter page, alleging that the parent was wrongfully obtained by the fbi and the justice department. the memo's authors point to the work of former british spy christopher steele who compiled the now infamous dossier on trump. republicans say steele's dossier was a key part to the information shown to the federal intelligence surveillance act, or fisa to justify the continued surveillance. it was funded by the dnc and hillary clinton's campaign, though not initiated originally by them. congressman nunez talked about this memo and how it came together earlier tonight. >> i have an obligation to the american people when we see fisa abuse, the american citizens represented before this court have to be protected.

designed to tie the fbi and the department of justice. . >> congressman shift is calling for devon nunezemoved as chairman of the house intelligence committee so a lot on the line here. a lot of hype. we will see exactly what it brings if this memo is released today. >> like the super bowl friday of the memo. thank you so much. the memo has turned to capitol hill. this partisan battleground over whether it should ever see the light of day. paul ryan says the release is strictly about transparency and not an attack on the fbi but once the contents are revealed, head start rolling at the top of the bureau. >> i do believe there are jaw-dropping revelations about the extent to which the fbi and department of justice were weapon eyes to politically to go after the folks that they didn't line up with from an ideological or electoral standpoint. i have a great deal respect for speaker ryan but i think the substance of this memo absolutely implicates senior officials of the department of justice and the fbi and it shows the entire mueller investigation should have never been started in the firs

democrats are calling on speaker ryan to remove devin nunez from the intelligence committee.ust oversight. >> what this memo is congress doing its job in conducting legitimate oversight and if mistakes were made and if individuals did something wrong, then it is our job as the legislative branch of government to conduct oversight over the executive branch if abuses were made. >> i'm joined by senator richard blumenthal of connecticut. your advice to paul ryan that this is just oversight? >> the congress has an oversight role when it comes to the feeis court and our intelligence community. but it's role should be to examine it, first of all, confidently, witho lially witho disclosing sources and methods and second without grossly miskacharacterizining that evid. there is a process for appeals or scrutiny within the court system this is properly the way to do it. >> what if carter page for the sake of argument should never have been surveilled, if you take that just as the lawyers say arguendo, is that something that could affect the russia probe? >> as a result of the adversar

congress persons like devin nunez.his new story tonight, is them releasing a memo their own employees wrote to them. now with this focus on transparency, let's see who these people are. one staffer is kash patel. carly scott blake, those are their salaries. that's the who of the memo, one party's political staff. now to the what? what does this memo say about mueller and his probe? nothing, a dud, it doesn't even use the words bob mueller. what does it say about mueller's bob rob rosenstein? it said that he was one of the ones who renewed the -- if this is the scandal we have been hearing about for weeks, what is it? the allegation is that the u.s. government should not have surveilled carter page, it says that the relevant information was omitted in the warrant for the spying, the reference did not name is role of the dnc in the acquisition of the trump dossier and hypothetically presented that maybe there wouldn't have been a warrant if there had been no dossier. whatever the politics that led to this release, our jo

i'm here in california, this is david nunez. janz and his supporters have been showing up here to patrol nunez on a regular base. how are you doing, you more democrat or republican? >> probably republican. >> do you vote for david nunez? >> yes. >> republican or democrat. >> neither? >> neither. >> i like your sweater too by the way. >> what'd it say? >> 49ers. >> david nunez has won the votes. >> i think the people are burnt out. >> talk about david nunez, his failings in washington and what he's not doing back home. what's important is to talk about what the voters care about. >> in this district? >> yes. >> what is that? >> water. jobs, immigration reform. hi i'm running for congress in 2020. >> this is my -- >> you follow the russian investigation at all? >> i do not. >> do you live here? you do? can you come out for a second? what the you know about david nunez in congress? he's the head of intelligence committee for the the run so he's in charge of russian investigation. >> right. it's hard to know what's real and what's n

what nuÑez is charging is that he does not like trump.s essentially working for a law firm that was trying to act on behalf of the hillary clinton campaign. that is what nuÑez and the other republicans have. i think that is a legitimate concern. we may need to have done the fisa anyway. the subject matter was so serious. are the russians trying to collaborate? we need to check that out. time, did the fbi rely only on this? did they have other information to justify this extraordinary use of surveillance. ity make the assertion that was an essential part of the fisa application. we do not know what else was used. we suspect it was a lot of other stuff. going next.e we are the democrats are going to come out with their document. it is going to say things like, the fbi relied on human intelligence, a source, other intercepts. i think you're caller is onto something. it is about the context of the memo and should that have been a factor in whether the fisa application was rejected or accepted? host: the memo states that the investigation bega

the nunez memo really has nothing to do with that.oes this rebuttal have any impact or any connection at all to that either? >> i don't think it will, only in that we now live in two worlds and two parties are seeing the same investigation through a very different lens. it is important and relevant that the democratic memo shows that the reasons for the investigation were legitimate, they were not political. that said, it doesn't really matter, given how partisan this was become. i think in the end the president could have tweeted that tweet before he saw the memo and many of his supporters would believe it and that is a problem for a real investigation to happen. >> mark, give us the big picture here. the precedent, we are now reading portions of warrant application through the fisa court and we now have this precedent of the republicans will release their partisan view of something and the democrats will release their view. what does this mean for the future of this process? >> it's a great question. you know? i love reading informa

he accused nunez of unethical conduct. devin nunez was cleared. and schiff made the accusation that we changed the memo before giving it to president trump. he's not making that argument anywhere. time and again he's proven incredible. we've got to move pass the partisanship. david: good luck. the fact is that every republican, correct me if i'm wrong, every republican on that committee voted to release the democratic memo. they voted with their democratic colleague to release the memo. at the same time every single democrat voted against releasing the republican memo. how do you find bipartisan in that? >> it's difficult. but it shows that we're confident in the facts that are laid out in devin nunez's memo. quite frankly cash was co convertible into a fisa warrant to spy on americans. that's outrageous. and democrats and republicans are going to be in power in the future in this country and i don't either side to have the ability to use political document to go and affect an intelligence investigation. we should all be in this together but unfor

memo appeared to nuÑez memo to the president is right to memo is the best.rious questions raised about the fbi and department of justice conduct the year before last in this fisa warrant in this investigation altogether. >> democrats say the memos indicates the fbi. >> i'm not surprised the president doesn't like it. i'm not surprised the white house tried to bury the memo responds as long as they could. but it's important for the public to see the facts the fbi acted appropriately. they are not partisan deep status the president apparently would like the public to believe. >> he says the committee will continue to investigate russian brushed interference in the 2016 campaign that the members of congress return today and continue to follow the developments of this story as more and more details come out. connell: kelly wright in d.c. president trump's legal team in the meantime is waiting for having testified before a special counsel robert mueller of questions i limited the scope and don't amount to a potential perjury trap. for more on this connector and a

the nunez memo, one other element. the nunez memo referenced the yahoo!s store by mike isikoff and said it was to corroborate the steele dossier which it should not because steele was isikoff's source. we know that now. according to the demonstrate's rebuttal, it says the following. important distinction? >> yeah. i think so. i mean, the dossier was a small part of the memo to the democrats which also lays out a lot of other detail about how carter page was on the fbi's radar. they had, in fact, interviewed carter page in march of 2016, several months before they made this application in october of 2016. so the notion that this article was another key piece of intelligence that the court was relying on doesn't stand up. >> page, do you believe that -- i mean, the rebuttal of the democrats say that the dossier was impleed with narrow use here. do you believe that this warranty would have been approved without the doesy say based on what we know? >> no way to answer that question and i think the argument between the memos and back and forth and how importan

nunez refused to answer question. at the end, he gave a written housese saying the white had not been involved with the actual drafting of the memo, but in terms of whether it was court needed with white house or question. that's the the reality is as this investigation has progressed, significantly the investigation by bob mueller. as more individuals have fled guilty or indicted, both in terms of the issue of collusion and objection, there is a sense of panic on the white house and as a result, we see a tactic we have often seen in criminal cases when the facts are .ncreasingly incriminating there's an effort to put the government on trial and that brings us to where we are today. we think this very ill serves the public and we hope it will stop, but nonetheless, the chairman has announced his intention to continue with other phases of this so-called investigation. he has publicly described this memo as phase one. in fact, it is face to. this is phase two. we hope these phases of distraction will come to an end and

>> nunez took the logical next step.steel dossier has the basis for a daca application which is what led a court to allow electronic surveillance and spying in the trump transition team. for nunez to find out, paid for opposition research, when did they know it because frankly it is an abuse of the ivanka statute to use opposition research to authorize spying on american citizen. rob: if you do not respond we will resort to compulsory process. what compulsory process can devon nunez put forward to force individuals to respond and what defenses do they have to not respond? >> he can authorize subpoenas to be issued against them if they refuse to respond. and subpoenas, and rely on department of justice to enforce the subpoenas and you may recall in the obama administration on several occasions the obama justice department refused to enforce subpoenas like the ones issued against former attorney general. >> the interconnectedness of all the players involved here is basically what donald trump is referring to when he called

to be removed, one of several democrats calling for nunez to be removed.re is quite a lot of hype being built around this. the voice on what can or can't be declassified but is expected again that he will give that okay and go back to the house and up to chairman nunez to release it and then we will find out whether he will be vindicated and americans will finally see what is in that memo. it is like waiting with baited breath. thanks. jillian: the hunters have been hunted, that message from former member of the fbi joint terrorism task force steve rogers. >> top officials running scared by what will be revealed. >> hunters have become the hunted meaning top executives of the fbi have politicized the entire investigative process. in my view and the view of a lot of law enforcement officers, manufacturing and outcome to her donald trump. they are fighting like mad to keep this memo quiet because there is going to be a domino effect that will run a chill up and down law enforcement across this nation. rob: i is taking action, dangerous illegal immigrants in

nunez, mr. gowdy are making so much about this episode. not about thea concert they are stating which is protecting americans from abusive surveillance policies. if it was, we would be talking about reforming the fisa process, holding the government to a higher standard before it can obtain one of these warrants. of course, this is the very house intelligence committee that voted last year to reauthorize one of the other parts of fisa, with the republicans almost entirely endorsing that reauthorization. my concern is that if there is really a problem here, let's talk about the problem, as opposed to turn this into some huge partisan, political scandal that is distracting from the mother investigation, which is mr. gary himself suggested yesterday, should not be affected at all by what is in the nunes memo. comey goes on twitter and says that the release of this information, and trusthe words destroyed with the intelligence committee, damage the relationship with -- would you agree that those things happened, didn't go that far? to see.e wi

. >> as we look at it being politicized, the rebuttable, and the nunez memo, four pages here. when we look at it, bobby, you remember when the original memo was alleging, the fbi am abused fiza, and intelligence in the investigation. what is your response to the democratic response? more data to rebut what was claimed? >> it is impossible to tell. i think what happens is, if we were to read this, and look at the nunez memo as a motion to supress, and it was a motion to suppress, and the answer the motion. democrats' answer to the nunez memo may address point by point, they may make additional point that is the danger in this back and forth. once the democratic memo comes out. if it has anything additional, republicans are going to want another memo of their own coming out. a principle stance, stop the silliness, in the interest of our intelligence agency being able to do their job, we won't have any more of this. i am not sure the president agrees with that. >> nunez will now, continue the investigation into potential connections, talk about the question related to this. comme

jillian: congressman devon nunez turning up the heat on the obama era officials with questions on thessier. a former doj official earlier on the show congress has a responsibility to get the truth. >> nunez has taken the logical next step. we know the steel dossier was the basis of the fisa application. that strzok -- that fisa application let a court to approve electronic surveillance or spying on the trump transition team. the next logical step is for nunez to find out what officials knew that this was paid for opposition research that had not been verified and when did they know it? frankly it is an abuse of the fisa statute opposition research to authorize spying on an american citizen. >> democrat outraged as the trump administration pushes low cost health care plans as alternatives to obamacare, allowing insurers to share sort short-term policies, benefits and lower premiums. >> folks who have been shut out of the marketplace, we need to keep working to build a system different from obamacare but while we haven't we need more political options for people. not what i tell them th

republican house intelligence committee chairman nunez authorized the memo. the document alleges the fbi and the department of justice used improper surveillance. >> there may have been malfeasance at the fbi by certain individuals. we want all this information to come outside so transparency can be supreme and accountability can can occur. >> we thought paul ryan was going to be the adult to look over there administration. >> democrats say the memo is an attempt to undermine special counsel robert mueller's russia version. >> there is not a shred of evidence there has been abuse of the surveillance process. >> the fbi says it has grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo's accuracy. >> he would not only be endangering our country he would be violating the rules of the congress of the united states. i believe the chairman of the intelligence committee, mr. nunez, should be taken outside of that office. >> the white house says president trump did read the memo. and the president's fbi director christopher wray, says he

called the nunez memo drawn up by the senate intelligence committee.t involves so-called bias in the investigation of the president's associates. democrats insist noth r mog than a cherry picked list of talking points. the fbi says it has the grave concerns about the accuracy of the memo. and how it may affect the investigation. here's jeff pegues. >> reporter: in a rare statement the fbi pushed back hard against the memo being released. we have grave concerns about material omissions of fact the statement read that fundamentally impact the memo accuracy. >> on the national security front. >> a stinging challenge to president trump by christopher wray his hand picked fbi director. monday night, wrya, and rod rosenstein, met john kelly at the white house, to argue against the release of the memo. four page document authorized by republican congressman devin nunez alleges abuses by the fbi and doj when seeking a surveillance warrant of a trump campaign official. nunez asserted it is clear that top officials used unverified information in a court document

nunez refused to answer the questions. at the end of the hearing, he gave a very lawyerly written housese that the white had not been involved in the actual drafting of the memo. it wasterms of whether correlated with the white house or they were consulted or strategized, the whole concept, he refused to answer those questions. that is a very important question for our committee. the reality is as this investigation has progressed, the investigation by individuals as more have either been in guided or pled guilty with connection to the investigation and evidence has mounted, both in terms of collusion and obstruction, there is a rising sense of panic within the white house and on the hill. as a result, we see a tactic we have often seen in criminal cases where when the facts are defendant,ng of the there is an effort to put the government on trial. that brings us to where we are --ay, where our committee republicans have endeavored to but the fbi on trial, the department of justice on trial, impeach and impugn the hard wor

nancy pelosi is asking for nunez to step down. his actions make him unfit as chairman and he must be removed immediately from this position. two separate issues a whole lot going on. bottom line we sit here and wait. it is coming, soon. neil: wasn't she the same nancy pelosi said anything that then fbi director comey had on hillary clinton, he should get out for the public disinfectant of daylight? what happened? reporter: democrats slammed jim comey at the end of the race. and then jim comey was fired by this president. there was a whole, oh, my gosh why do you fire jim comey. neil: right. reporter: they have been called out from both sides of the coin here. nancy pelosi is taking her ire out on devin nunez. neil: politicians being politicians. thank you very much, my friend that is the issue, release of that memo, what it could mean. already democrats are crying foul about why republicans were reluctant to release a democratic memo essentially criticized this republican memo. so i don't know it is a mess, a total mess. the presi

cnn today the president told his friends that he sees this memo drafted by republican congressman nunez and republican committee staff as a way to undermine and discredit the russian investigation giving himself cover and ignoring, as we've noted, the objections of two of the nation's top law enforcement officials, not just fbi director christopher ray, but deputy attorney general rosenstein. a democratic senator suggested it's pretext for more than just undermining the mueller russian investigation, but for firing mueller. >> this appears to be a setup to enable the president to fire mueller and grind it to a halt. >> president trump did not mention the memo in the 35-minute long remarks in west virginia this afternoon, but today, the fbi is sending a signal it supports the decision against releasing the memo saying, quote, the fbi agents' association appreciates fbi districter standing shoulder to shoulder with the men and women of the fbi as we work together to protect the country from criminal and national security threats. joining me now to discuss this now, katlyn, there were talk

now you're saying that nunez should be scrutinized for that.hat goes to my final question, should he be fully recused at this point from any russia probe? >> i thought that he was, but clearly he's still signing subpoenas or refusing to sign them and that obstruct this is case and that makes it especially difficult. and as you recall those transcripts that were made public, it was my understanding that he refused to acknowledge that they didn't work with the white house to develop that memo. >> we covered that a lot. i mean -- you made news, whether you meant to or not, because i know it was in the transcript, not the most exciting place, it wasn't like a press conference, but we covered that, what made you ask that question of nunez, what made you say that it's easy to claim coordinating with the potential suspects of their probe? >> he's supposed to be an independent investigator, i have watched for over a year where he's been anything but. i think he's been an agent of white house to help obstruct this case. i think it began with his midnigh

intelligence community the washington post was one of the loudest voices against the release of the nunez memo why because this classified document which alleges misconduct by intelligence services quote in danger's national security and wa po published a number of articles predicting devastating consequences from the memos released and slamming donald trump while they were at it and media who are in favor of the memos released got bashed as well the clip on paid for fake news russian propaganda dot ca of course was used by the obama administration to obtain pizer warrants to surveil members of the trunk campaign. the new york times who exposed the pentagon papers back in the seventy's were also against it so the cia and f.b.i. went from bad guys hiding their secrets from the public to a pillar of society standing strong against the evil trump the irony today among many ironies is how the mainstream media forgotten their own history the new york times the washington post today when it comes to us songe and others call him the worst right to our republic is that we've ever seen but just ye

we're talking about the nunez memo. to your point about the times of the surveillance of carter page, it is also worth noting when they decided to surveil him, it was after he was no longer a member of the trump campaign. and the nunes memo also points out that it wasn't the steel dossier that opened the investigation into russia election meddling into some counter terrorism investigation to begin with because -- or counter intelligence investigation, rather, to begin with because they say in the memo it was information given to the fbi or to international members in australia, apparently, about what pap dop louse was telling that russian diplom diplomat. >> if you would let me finish, look, first of all he has nothing to do with it. you can't establish probable cause on carter paige to spy on him unless you have some connection between the two. there is no connection between the two. >> it is cited in the nunes memo. that is part of the intelligence packet put together to get the surveillance on carter paige. but we do
