and notable because peter king works closely on national security issues.d during the campaign with the trump team. he was not involved in this. even if there were house judiciary staffers involved, larger, most of them are influential members of congress, including the republican leadership, paul ryan saying earlier that he was not involved in the drafting of this. one reason why there's been some significant pushback on capitol hill, guys. >> referring all questions, paul ryan did, to the judiciary committee if people have questions about that. not taking them himself. doug, manu, thanks so much, guys. >>> we have more breaking news. as she faces a committee vote right now, cnn is reporting that education secretary nominee betsy devos lifted -- did she lift quotes for her senate questionnaire? we'll have details next. with hyaluronic acid it plumps skin cells with intense hydration and locks it in. for supple, hydrated skin. hydro boost. from neutrogena won't replace the full value of your totaled new car. the guy says you picked the wrong insurance plan.

we'll go through the thoughts of all of this with congressman peter king. speaker paul ryan first. >> russia clearly tried to immediate el in our political system. let me say a couple of things. first of all, i think this is what the president-elect is legitimately upset about. there are attempts on the left to try to delegitimize this election. that's bogus. he won fair and square. got an estimate in 24 hours. my insurance company definitely doesn't have that... you can leave worry behind when liberty stands with you™ liberty mutual insurance >> martha: fox news alert on the intelligence report that apparently shows evidence of russian meddling in the u.s. election and details of who exactly delivered those stolen democratic emails by john podesta and others abds handed them over to wikileaks. no one said if vladimir putin had a direct tie. the director of national intelligence say it's hard to note if the russians may have swayed the vote. >> they did not change any vote tallies. the intelligence community can't gauge the impact it had on choices the elec

earlier on "america's newsroom," congressman peter king, who sits on the house intelligence committee, expressing his doubts about the timing of the intel findings. >> this is old news. at every stage of the way they were saying that there was no indication that the russians were favoring one candidate over the other. and suddenly we start, after the election, we start reading in "the washington post" in "the new york times" that the intelligence community has decided that the russians are favoring donald trump. they never gave us any ex-clinician for that at all. and we are still waiting. now hopefully we will get it. >> in the meantime, "the washington post," which congressman king just called out, reporting that some of the intelligence intercepts show top russian officials celebrating the news of donald trump's surprise victory. it says one unnamed u.s. official, "the russians felt pretty good about what happened on november 8th, and they also felt pretty good about what they did." so, we are awaiting all of this, and as we do, we are expecting that he will learn about motive behi
