eric: stephen boyd who wrote the letter to the committee doesn't say to release it, but they want toee it. we believe would be extraordinarily reckless to disclose the information publicly without doing the department of the fbi the opportunity to review the memorandum advised the committee at the risk of harm to national security and ongoing investigations that could come from public release. indeed we do not understand by the committee would possibly seek to disclose classified law-enforcement sensitive information without consulting relative numbers of the intelligence community. you understand the damaging impact the release the material could have under national security and ability to share and receive sensitive information from foreign government. so what if the fbi or the doj does review it and they say no, don't release it? >> this is why we have the elect the representatives of the people in the congress. the house select committee on intelligence is very bright people. they understand the necessity of this and the american people deserve transparency. the metal is a summar

house intelligence committee chair devon nunez not to do it in a letter obtained by fox news, stephen boydld be reckless to release it publicly. rob: donald trump says his administration has nothing to hide amid reports he will be meeting with robert mueller. jillian: a face-to-face interview would be a, quote, suicide mission, here is why. >> understandable why the president is confident, he knows he has done the wrong but a first year law student would tell you this is an obvious perjury trap, robert mueller is taking advantage of the president's loquacious in this, never suffers from a paucity of words and what is absolutely clear is mister mueller has no evidence of russian collusion so now we cycle back around to the dismissal of mister comey and he seeks to entrap the president in some kind of process crime, perjury or obstruction. under no circumstances should he grant mister mueller an interview. it is a suicide mission. a very clear perjury trap. rob: the best option for avoiding a constitutional crisis would be for mueller to submit written questions and for the president to resp

the republican trump appointee, the assistant attorney general, stephen boyd says releasing the memo would be extremely reckless. richard burr, the republican of north carolina, chairman of the select committee on intelligence, has requested a look before any possible declassification. look denied. in who have seen the memo say its misleading, distracting and lacking context. the memo itself is in the conservative discussion mix while the special counsel investigating russian interference in hour democracy is about to interview the president of the us to see if he's colluded with the russians. a memo can be a part of partisan distraction, especially in a pivotal moment in history. context matters. let's turn to tom bevin, co-founder and publisher of real clear politician. tom, it was pointed out in another network, the top four stories being aggregated by real clear politics where all of this same ilk. what does this say about the national discussion? >> well, look, shep, there's interest in obviously in this memo and certainly among republicans, among partisans because of the way it

trump was said to have erected in anger after learning stephen boyd warned it would be extraordinarilykless to about the justice department related to the investigation. any potential u.k. trade deals negotiating during the 21-month brexit transition period would be subject to eu approval. michelle barnier made that clear in a conference with eu ministers today. she also defended the plan to have a brexit deal finalized by october. this is a major historic treaty, and it may take time for member state parliaments. it might take time for the bishop parliament -- ernest .

stephen boyd, trump's choice at the doj says this could be reckless, dangerous. the intelligence community says let us review this. you have thehouse josing we don't trust it. you have the president saying we'll have to see. why do this to the intelligence community? why call into question their legitimacy with the american people? >> i don't think we are calling into question -- we've said many, many times before the president has full confidence in director wray and his ability to lead the fbi. i don't think there's any secret that there's some frustration, and certainly great cause for concern by some of the actions of some of the previous leadership at the fbi. but the president put director wray there for a reason. he has great confidence in the rank and file members of the fbi which we've said repeatedly. there are a number of things that have given reason for, not just the president, but the american people to have cause for concern out of the actions of that department. >> why not let the system work? >> that's exactly what we're doing. >> no, no. this is

appointees, the head of the fbi, the number two person in the justice department, rod rosenstein, and stephen boydobably not a name known to the public but in charge of national security in the department of justice, all saying, don't release this. it is misleading. so my argument has been, it should be released. the democratic version of it should be released. and the data on which both versions are based should also be released. david: and inspector general's report should be released. >> of course because the american public has the right to know. let me finish this. who knew this? who dropped the ball? who abused power? who looked the other way. david: they're giving me a wrap. one final point which is that the director of the fbi, mr. wray, said in mccabe goes i go. then he read the memo on sunday -- >> 12 hours later mccabe is gone. david: wray is still there, what does that tell you about the memo? >> we won't know until the memo. we can certainly conclude that mccabe's name was all over it. david: judge napolitano, god, there is a lot to talk about here but we can't. melissa: republican co

is there concern about the lack of transparency to the intelligence community, trump appointee stephen boyd saying this could be extremely reckless to release it this way, we've never seen congress go around the intelligence community, using the president and himself instead of the intelligence community. >> i think there are concerns all the way around. that is one person's opinion. at the same time we've been very concerned to see a year-plus spent on innuendos and insinuations and this lack of any connection of russian collusion. everybody is yet to produce any evidence of that. it's. >> reporter: frustrating, chris, frustrating to a lot of america when we can't get enough coverage of 275,000 companies giving their employs bonuses and pay raises and investing in the community, it's frustrating to the american voter that put this congress here, put this president off to make us more prosperous, more safe, more transparent and accountable and frankly has done this. as for this, this is all brand new. as you say, the president has five days to review it. we take it all very seriously. for t

>> stephen boyd a trump appointee, he sent the message saying it would be extremely reckless to releasehis. but the timing the same day they vote to release this memo the white house decides not to sanction russia after congress voted 98-2 to do so. >> thank you. we have a lot more to talk about. luckily we have many more hours. we have a very big program for you today. we will speak with the counselor to the president kellyanne conway will be in our 8:00 a.m. hour and we have lawmakers throughout the show to talk about all of these issues from both sides of the aisle. >> it's much easier to get them when you go where they live it turns out. >>> president trump, determined to deliver a unifying state of the union address, but will he stick to the script? we discuss. this is the story of green mountain coffee roasters dark magic told in the time it takes to brew your cup. first, we head to vermont. and go to our coffee shop. and meet dave. hey. why is dark magic so spell-bindingly good, he asks? let me show you. let's go. so we climb. hike. see a bear. woah. reach the top. dave says dark

saw that the department of justice, his department of justice, the assistant attorney general, stephen boyd had written this letter to devin nunes saying it would be reckless for the committee to release this information without letting the intelligence committee review it without seeing things were not being disclosed. >> this illustrates the president had a problem all along with the legal advise he's been given. he's had roy cohen, a pit bull. he's had michael kohn, a flun ki. he has not adjusted to having lawyers who are working for the government under his supervision, but not necessarily personally for him. they are giving him arm's length legal advice, no matter what the issue is. >> i spoke to someone today who speaks to the president regularly. he said the president believes the justice department is corrupt. that's his feeling about it. if they weren't krups corrupt, they would have handled things differently. we know he is from our reporting, he's been complaining about rod rosenstein. he's been complaining about andrew mccabe. the question is whether he's complaining about chris

writing in a january 24th letter assistant attorney general stephen e. boyd called the memos unprecedented and reckless. fox news was told the memo was drafted to eliminate national security information that could be harmed if it was viewed by individuals outside of congress and in the last hour justice department official has confirmed to fox that they have done their own review of the memo and they're no longer applying the term reckless to the release but offered no further explanation, shep. >> shepard: what else are you hearing from the white house today? >> shep, the white house spokesman said on fox earlier the president will likely run out the clock. >> this is a congressional action. the president doesn't have to sign it to make it declassified. he doesn't have to say a word. in five days it becomes public. >> it's worth reminding people that the democrat's memo is now available to all lawmakers in the house but won't be publicly released and they have to get a majority votes. you can tell with the political climate, that is entirely unlikely. it was

the department of justice and a and up looking at the chief of staff to jeff sessions for years, stephen boydof alabama. he seems to be a key guy when we talk about justice, saying this is extraordinarily reckless, what the republicans are doing. about the team around the attorney general how they are advising him. jacobsour very own jen with the massive scoop about the frustration of the president on air force one, boiling over on his way to davos -- look, republicans are divided right now. not just in capitol hill but in the camps surrounding senior administration and cabinet level officials in terms of the pressure this white house and the pressure republicans ought to or ought not to put on this investigation -- case in point, the potential release of documents from the fbi. republicans are divided on this. democrats feel none of this should be released, but there is no question that mueller probe is nearing completion. tom: but what does justice do on a tuesday morning? we are -- we heard "extraordinarily reckless." attorneyeople around general sessions -- what is justice going to do tod
