joining us is congressman ron desantis. he's the leading republican candidate to be governor of the great state of florida. congressman, good to have you with us. devin nunes, he's saying straight out, he's had it with this justice department. the only question i have got is what's going to happen next. >> they have shown nothing but contempt for us and our oversight prerogatives which is getting the american people the truth. so they are going to show us this level of contempt. we should hold them in contempt. unless you are willing to attach a sanction to non-compliance you will continue to play this song and dance over and over again. he's one of the few chairmen who were putting his foot down and saying this is enough. so let's set that contempt hearing. if you do that and show you are willing to do it, i think they end up producing the documents. but if they think conscious is never going to put its foot down, then they will keep doing it. lou: congress pore decade left the intelligence agencies of the intelligence com

on to a letter earlier in the year with -- we really spelled out originally co sponsored with ron desantisrom florida and in that we actually spelled out specific facts that we no were undisputed and what we thought were violations of federal statutes. we set forth the facts and followed that up with the selections of law. made it easy. but they're not going to look into their own investigation which is why we have to have a second special counsel. we have an inspector general's report. he doesn't have the power to do the same type of investigation we're looking at. we want to know when did this whole hillary clinton e-mail scandal end. when did the donald trump collusion and russia probe starts and why. why was there an informant hired by our government to use a dossier that was created as an opposition research tool, brought to a fisa court but not disclosed this was mr. provided by a political operative? that was one of the things we called for with congressman desantis. this is a violation of federal election law that is one fact. trust me. i'm an attorney. i'm a law and order person.
