wray. >> chairman, director, there is concerned about isis in the immediate term. i will add we are very concerned about al-qaeda, the prospect of al-qaeda reconstituting, given the relationship with the taliban and that is the flipside of finding -- right in the middle of kabul. >> exactly. >> i will add to that, we are concerned about the possibility that either al-qaeda or isis could expire -- inspire attacks here in the u.s., or against americans elsewhere. >> thank, you mister chairman. >> thank you. gentlemen, the chair will now recognize other members for questions they may whisk to acts witnesses. -- they will address members an order of seniority, alternating between majority and minority. members participating factually are mandated to unmute themselves when recognized for questioning. then, to mute themselves once they finish speaking, and to leave their cameras on so they are visible to the chair. the chair recognizes for five minutes, the young lady from texas, miss jackson lee

wray. are we coordinating enough with the government and qatar to make sure that americans will be safe there? we certainly, congressman, have been working with the qatari's in advising them with respect to how to enhance security to best protect americans there. >> i would agree with secretary mayorkas that we've been providing significant assistance and support to the qatari's in their efforts to secure the world cup. >> you would disagree? >> i said i would agree. >> thank you. the next step is lessons learned. in four years, we will have the world cup in the united states. so any breach in the government of qatar we hope you'll have 100 percent in terms of defense there. no lapses. and i'm hopeful to learn their lessons. we're going to have to apply those in the united states in four years. are we shadowing what they're doing? >> that's an important part of why we provide the assistance. and support. it's not just because it's the right thing to do to help the qatari's -- >> it's the ri

director christopher wray is the eighth director of the federal vero of the resignation, director wray began his law enforcement career over two decades ago. serving in the department of justice as the assistant u.s. attorney for the northern district of georgia. he has also served under the presidents corporate fraud tax force and supervised the and ron tax force. in addition to playing a key role in the national security objective for the department. director wray, thank you for appearing before us on cnn, you may proceed with your opening remarks. >> it morning, chairman peters, ranking member portman, and members of the committee, i am honored to be here today on behalf of the fbi's 38,000 men and women to discuss some of the most pressing threats facing our homeland. when it comes to the current threat landscape what makes our situation unique, and, i would add, particularly serious is the fact that we are seeing so many different threat areas. i am proud of the work the fbi's agents, analysts, and professional staff are doing all across the country and around the world every day

but christopher wray approved in or at worst, directs it. at the time we criticized this as outrageous political bias byh the e companies involved. we called big tech and the mediate alliance of bias. but now we know it was a thousand times worse. we now know that it was the fbi that was behind the suppression of the biden corruption story. zuckerberg was the first to go on the record.he f >> the fbi basically came to us, some folks on our team and said just so you know, you should be on high alert, we thought therep waros a lot of russian propagana in the 2016 election and we have it on notice that there's about to be a dump similar to that. so be vigilant. >> did they specifically say you needed to be on guard about that story? >> i don't remember that specifically, but they said basically it fit the pattern.l steve:as the fbi was represented in these meetings by an agent named elvis chan. on page 222 of his deposition elvis chan named another persono in these meetings. shelby pearson, the u.s. elections threat executive at the department

christopher wray, he should stand aside while investigations are carried out. congress should slow down the revolving door, legislate a band of critical tech companies hiring from the security state on a special exemption requested and debated publicly has been made. we must demand accountability and not stop until justice has been done in faith that our democracy has been restored. that is "the next revolution" that we need. twitter is free now, it is a great time to follow was if you're already on twitter or to join or rejoin. if you are not you can find me as steve tilted next and our show at next rev fnc. here with reaction california congressman darrell issa who is on the house judiciary committee and fresher reelection we're very pleased to see. congressman, great to see you tonight. i would really like to focus on christopher ray's role here. in what can be done particularly by your committee to get him to answer questions about how this happened at the fbi. >> i think what we're going to be able to do is starting january 3 led by jim jordan we're going

this morning, ftx ceo john wray will testify on the collapse of the crypto company. and live coverage at 10 a.m. on c-span 3, c-span now or our free video app. >> and next, respect for marriage app for tammy baldwin and susan collins on same-sex marriage and interracial marriages.

i have a final question for director wray.according to this un report, noted we are generated an extra two billion for the weapons of mass destruction program. they used cyberattacks. again, we had this in april. north korea hackers stole 620 million in cryptocurrency from video game companies. they have been doing this for a very long time. they are getting a little bit more aggressive. what are we doing to stop these hackers? what actions have been taken? >> the gentleman's time as expired. the witness may answer the question. >> you are right. i think that north korea sometimes gantt, dangerously so, overload is a significant cyber threat. we spent so much time, and very rightly, talking about china, russia, and iran. this is in addition to into threats and attack capabilities. this is sort of similar to iran as an easier. we are especially targeting the financial institutions, cryptocurrency exchanges, and so forth. they needed to find their regime. that is because of the effectiveness of the sanguine sanctions otherwise e

wray. we have heard a lot, a lot of this has been difficult to digest, by merely what has happened to so many people and so much money involved. mr. ray, you mentioned in your testimony that one of your primary goals is to limit the harm suffered by ftx customers. hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars have been removed from crypto wallets, and in its estimates, about 1 million people have money frozen in this in this. can you -- [silence] [muted] >> this beatty, would you repeat the question. you really renter up that there. >> basically hundreds of dollars have been removed for crypto wallets and it's estimated that about 1 million people have money frozen in their exchange. can you tell us, how many users have lost money? when will they get their money back? >> well, our processes such that we are securing our assets every day, we are out looking for wallets in the keys to those wallets, to maximize the recovery of value. it's an ongoing process. we have secured all of the cash in

it up and censor it were you ever contacted by attorney general william bar office or christopher wrayem on what was on this laptop quick. >> know and i would not expect to be aiding that would be improper we know rudy giuliani knew what was on the laptop and he was president trumps personal lawyer so they could have gone to him. at the time just after we publish them are censored by facebook and twitter the chairman of the house intelligence committee adam schiff the democrat was on cnn and msnbc everywhere saying the laptop was a smear from the kremlin and that is exactly what joe biden said in his final debate against donald trump using that letter from those intelligence officials claiming it was red intelligent russian misinformation so at one point after schiff started putting his disinformation into the media we had john radcliffe who decided this had to be answered even though it was just before the election he decided he had to put out a statement saying no there is no evidence of russian disinformation and he asked the fbi, director ray to do the same thing and william bar ag

steve: talking of consequences so the person that really has evaded accountability is christopher wray how can he still be had of the fbi after all that has gone on with the election after election meddling on his watch? >> the biden administration has chosen to keep him in his position it's amazing the last time he was before us i asked him if he was ready and then he wanted to quibble over the word hoax rather than go ahead and say it is apparent it is collusion and i look forward to the hearings and to see people held accountable and i look forward to more releasing of the twitter files because we know about facebook it took rubles for payment for campaign ads and they want to say they knew nothing about anything and that they were not getting information from other campaig campaigns? this is very difficult to believe. steve: senator we look forward to that. thank you for joining us. we will see you soon. sarah, your reaction? >> sunlight is the greatest disinfectant and elon musk expose them but also it is the greatest threat to our republic they are literally taking it upon themse

anytime of day or night, wray & nephew. >> desus: wray & nephew is a very strong jamaican white rum that> desus: what water would be in any other borough is what wray & nephew is in the bronx. >> anthony: cheers, thank you. desus is one half of the brilliant podcast team "desus vs. kid mero." it's a very fast freeform riff diatribe on life in the bronx and what's happening on the news, in hip-hop, or last night. >> desus: growing up in the bronx, you're isolated from the rest of the city. you know what i'm saying? so, the other city has like, citibike. the bronx doesn't get any of that. we're kind of abandoned up here. people get on a boat and go to staten island before they ride up to the bronx. >> anthony: i -- i got to, reluctantly, have to -- being part of that problem. >> desus: yes. people always say, you know, the bronx is eventually going to be gentrified. that's not happening anytime soon. >> anthony: it's not? >> desus: like, it's not. like -- >> anthony: how are you doing? >> desus: you know barry? this is the owner right here. this is the man right here who provided -- who ma

why christopher wray was broken and i think christopher wray is a failed leader just like james comeyust like before him. i want to see one other thing, this will all come down to not what the democrats did, but what the g.o.p. is willing to do to stop it and go after them. if they don't act, then what does it matter? nobody else, the agencies won't stop and we need the representatives to represent us in washington, d.c. >> todd: something you told the producers you believe bic tech violated the third amendment, which is basically military can't stay in your home. explain that. >> if you watched the series "turn" and that open minds when i saw the british soldiers cornering homes and they basically will press the speech. if they didn't like what they were seeing, the people had to change their conversation. throughout, especially after 2020 and all sense trump has been in office, these social media companies working with the federal government has since oppressed us in our own homes and told our neighbors and her family members if we are not doing what they said during covid and the m

director chris wray that he appointed.if they were approving a lot of these activities, i would like to hear from them as well. this is not obama's team. this was donald trump's team briefing the social media leaders both at twitter, facebook, what have you. we have many more questions than answers. i want full transparency. let's see all the records not just the handpicked group from elon musk. >> harris: i heard you drop the trump word. you are right christopher wray was there. who is leading the f.b.i. now? >> christopher wray. >> harris: he is biden's guys now. if there were so many problems why didn't he get rid of him? now we get to dig in with republicans in charge of the house. what do you think we'll find out, matt? the journalist on this file says influence campaign by the feds. that's more than frightening. >> it is. i will say this broadly. law enforcement deserves admiration and respect and they're heroes. what i'm saying -- about to say i don't mean about the people on the front lines. i don't understand the

what's more, the letter to wray also falsely suggests the head of the fbi office in miami played a suspicious role in the mar-a-lago search. an accusation that officials call false. it is sad but not surprising, the lawful court approved search of mar-a-lago has been a lightning rod for conservatives since the moment it happened. recall the way conservative media twisted the story and set its sights on the fbi. >> the way our federal government has gone, it's like what we thought about the gestapo. >> this is gestapo crap and it will not stand. >> the fbi right now is the gestapo. >> this is some third world bull [bleep] right here. >> you cannot weaponize our political institutions for gain. >> do i know the boxes of material they took from mar-a-lago, they won't put things in those boxes to entrap him, how do we know? >> who is to say in this kind of case that some of the documents supposedly seized were not planted there to begin with. >> what the fbi is probably doing is planting evidence. which is what they did during the russia hoax. >> they raided our president's home. there is no goin

christopher wray was even careful.elves and not catch themselves literally committing fraud by wire or any other kind of fraud. testifying before the public on television about hunter biden. so they said nothing. because they knew all these many months that have passed what the fbi was doing in silicon valley. and let me tell you and the american public who else knew. the special agent in charge of the fbi san francisco knew. he had to be in the loop or she. the unit chief back at fbi headquarters. the section chief at fbi headquarters. supervisors of squads, including the pal watt toe l.a. out in silicon valley they all knew what the fbi was doing just like the 5 is signatories to the letter about the hunter biden laptop information. all of them knew exactly what they were signing on to. all of these people need to be hauled before congress in a public session and they need to be asked questions. if they won't do that you can haul them before you. let's have you ask them the key questions. all we need to know about th

wray says the chinese has the ability to contain the recommendation algorithm and possibly use it for operations. >> he stressed that china could use user info for traditional espionage operations, as well. tiktok coo says the company protects all data from american users and that chinese government officials have no access to it p, but those concerns over chinese influence over tiktok was a top concern of the trump administration. they threatened to ban the app and pressured bite dance to sell to a u.s. company. u.s. officials and the company are currently in talks over a possible situation or solution that would alleviate american security concerns. >> those security concerns are not new, ike. thank you. now to a terrifying and deadly scene at sea and what witnesses are saying about the moment when a massive random wave slammed into the cruise ship near the bottom of the world. >> this morning passengers describing a terrifying experience after a rogue wave slammed into the cruise ship killing an american woman and injuring four others. alexandra pierce son and her father were both

so clearly their leadership at times has been walking, and i think director wray has to call a pressference and stand up in front of god the country and american people to explain all this means. because, i'm just going to say these emails on twitter that have been revealed, they have to make every democrat, every republican in america who believes in the first amendment god. >> you know senator, now have a bone to pick up a couple cans in the u.s. senate. because they have been five occasions since 1954 where the gavel has changed hands from one party to another. never before under those circumstances, has the congress in this case, the senate, ever come forward with an omnibus spending bill. right now you've called this by the works on the nist spending and i think you're right you want to explain the term. but now we have republicans willing to go along with chuck schumer and the radical democrats and give them a year-long budget when all they should be doing was passing acr continuing resolution so that when the new house republican leadership gets in power, they'll be a check an

and christopher wray. i don't know what he's still wha doing there. one of the points, if the republican house controls the budget, mitch mcconnell has taken that away from them for another year.ar >> it's a clear problem. what bothers me about all this. when elon musk took over twitter they had 795 employees. nobody resigned? nobody is upset? nobody is angry about this?dy there is r no whistleblower sayg how can you kick off theppre president and kick off the epidemiologist who signed theho greaw t barrington declaration.e yortu had common sense bright people saying these things were a bad idea. b hoadw many suicide have we had, child abuse, domestic violencela because of the lockdowns that killed people. it seems there ought to be somebody saying this is wrong. nobody resigned. >> government is often slow to o respond to these things except what they are doing in shadows behind closed doors. if you are a conservative or libertarian person out there concerned about the first amendment. maybe you shouldn't go to washingtonwash, d.c. maybe you should g

>> i wish i had that sound bite that brooke just read, the quote from christopher wray. what he said tiktok is doing and what is possible, the threat they have, is exactly what the fbi was doing to the american people through twitter. so i think it is interesting, when you look at this and you look at how criminals typically act when they're questioned about this or evidence is brought forward, it is exactly like the fbi is acting now. when we look at the twitter files and listen to what the fbi statement was, these things don't add up and we see a thing called minimization, which subjectses and crimes do when you question them, minimize their involvement and that is what is happening with the fbi. there is evidence now they have done this and the exact same thing is being done on all these other social media platforms and the talking points fbi uses is same talking points you hear from the democratic party. >> ashley: why can't they speak to specific payment and reimbursement? these are taxpayer dollars, is what they are doing legal and ethical? it is usually targeting

we did hear from john wray, who is now the ceo of ftx and in charge of restructuring. he took a very calm and tense tone, really did not part his words at all he said that -- talked about mismanagement, talked about some of the issues that went on at ftx, and it really did align with what we heard from those multiple agencies who seemed to be working quite closely and coordinating on this effort. we also just heard essentially that they haven't said if they're going to bring charges against anyone else but they say they're not done sort of a call to action if anybody had information, if anybody wanted to go and work with law enforcement, or they said if you were a part of this, and you haven't reached out to us yet, make sure you do before we reach out to you. so there was a little bit of a warning shot there, and a shot across the bow for those who may be involved and may have not spoken to federal prosecutors yet. >> michael, there are some reports he may fight extradition. what are his odds of success >> his odds of success are absolutely none. he will ultimately be

the thing i can't understand, stuart, is why the focus isn't on christopher wray, the director of thethe best case scenario here is that rogue elements within the fbi worked to through and get biden elected and christopher wray just presided over it, still hasn't done anything about it. the worst case scenario is that christopher wray approved this election interference on behalf of the democrats or even worse than that, directed himself. he's the one that needs to be asked what the hell was going on and did he know about it? did he approve it? stuart: so i characterize this story earlier as big media, big government, and big corporations. >> yes. stuart: all working together to exclude us from the true picture of the biden laptop. is that accurate? lauren: collusion. stuart: exactly. >> collusion is exactly the word. that's exactly right, and again, let's be clear about the story. the laptop was the mechanism through which we found out about what's important. what's important is the evidence on there that joe biden, while he was vice president, was the head of a corrupt influence ped

so where is chris wray? the fbi director.for the immediate firing of the director texas senator ted cruz is author. so wray has got to go. >> jesse, what elon musk has released is evidence of corruption that goes to the highest level of government. it goes to the highest level of the fbi. and it goes to the highest level of big tech. we have known for a long time that big tech is censors conservatives. what elon did here he just laid naked all of the lies that the corporate media has told. it's clear during the 2020 election over and over and over again the biden campaign and the dnc would reach out to their buddies at twitter and say hey we don't like this and their response is handled, and they would take it down over and over and over again. and in particular, all of the exchange back and forth when the hunter biden laptop story broke, it was evidence that the leadership at twitter knew within hours ridiculous fake excuse that it was hacked as a a ridiculous fake excuse even james baker who you noted there had been the fbi

positive that we're going to be going after director away i sat in many abbreviation with director wraylt do eyeroll he is most political individual you've seen he is not in law enforcement he is about making political decisions, and not trying to get into the weeds of jeopardying, hurting a pal on democrat side i honestly believe without question, there is going to be a tremendous amount of accountability held, and you are going to see people leaving these agencies that know they have no more of cover from the democrat party. maria: to be clear fbi earmarked 11 billion in ol bidens package, senator elect, congressman markwayne mullin good to see you -- >> thank you for having me on new year new fitness goals. we are talking about outlook for if fitness space in '23, from our family to yours merry christmas from the "mornings with maria" crew, here is one shot of our producers emmy and her family celebrating christmas happy holidays from us to you. ♪ ?oet christmas ♪ ♪ i will be waiting santa ♪ ♪ at walmart, save on thousands of gifts for everyone on your list. the savings are here all

i would like to began, director wray, by requesting an update to the extent you are able to be provide details would be appreciated, on your efforts to disband historically black colleges and university in georgia and across the country from threats, of course, threats had targeted spellman college in the state of georgia. this is a deep concern place provided update on your efforts. >> senator, we have share your concern, the fear and disruption to is utterly unconscionable. these investigations, plural, have been a priority for the fbi. joint terrorism task forces we, the update that i can give is that for the first part of the threat, nationwide, the ones that generate the most initial media attention, if you well, there has been a recent development. an individual who withdrew morale has been identified because of the federal limitations on federal charging of juveniles for most relevant offenses we have worked with state prosecutors on unrelated state charge, which ensures restrictions are monitoring and individual disruption of his behavior. against historically black colleges an

increasingly demanding a detailed investigation, the republicans plan to both fbi director christopher wraynd the attorney general testified to the occasion. mary garden. they also stated that the republicans could hold the fbi accountable and freeze the organization's funding or have more control over spending if a long-term solution isn't made, as house republican minority leader kevin mccarthy pointed out. we have a plan for the fbi director to come. and answered all questions of interest to the society. this censorship. she is global. that is, uh, we have just seen how, uh, the us intelligence agencies have manipulated, uh, the public consciousness in order to, uh, put their man in the position of the president of the united states, but this is done everywhere, you know, this is done. everywhere they manipulate the social creation of their belarus and in russia and vietnam and in the central african republic and er. that is why this issue should always be discussed at the level of he because the united states should not do this. they shouldn't be manipulating public opinion around the w

>> well, look, you have the -- yes, they are because you just had chris wray, the fbi director, indian government has completely banned it. other governments like japan and indonesia are considering banning it. i'm going to introduce a rule for this next congress that members of congress cannot use it on their official phones because clearly, i mean, the one hand you have the biden administration saying it's a national security threat. you have the military not allowing military members to use it, but yet you have democrat members of congress and officials throughout the administration using it left, right and center. it's got to stop. we need to completely ban it. but at least we have to get our key officials and members of congress off of it. >> john: you mentioned christopher wray, what he said in testimony about tiktok. listen here. >> we do have national security concerns, at least from the fbi's end about tiktok. they include the possibility the chinese government could use it to control data collection on millions of users or control the recommendation algorithm which could be u

dana. >> dana: robert wray, thank you for being on the ground. we'll catch up with you in a little bit. >> bill: so minutes past the hour. feds wrapping up the final meeting of the year. this afternoon at 2:00 trying to tamp down inflation. how is it doing? what will the fed do in the latest move? how that will impact you and your family coming up shortly. >> dana: one crisis fueling another. how fentanyl is pulling more americans into homelessness. >> bill: you might remember this from the white house. >> advised the president to go to the border with me. >> bill: well, that did not happen. title 42 expires one week from today. the white house seeking billions of dollars in new border funding. will that happen? we'll ask minority leader kevin mccarthy for an answer next. helping them achieve financial freedom. we're investing for our clients in the projects that power our economy. from the plains to the coasts, we help americans invest for their future. and help communities thrive. >> dana: overnight the u.s. preparing to send one of its most ad

because john wray testified that there was no -- distinction between ftx u.s. outlining a road map for us to look at but sam bankman-fried agreed to testify and didn't show up. the southern district of new york prismed that with their indictment -- preempted that with their entit dime, i would have thought they would want him to testify before congress under ocean to getter qualify their own line of changes, we hope we can have sam bankman-fried testify. and others in the case to get to the bottom of what happened at ftx, how it should inform us in oversight of the sec, and emerging issues okay round digital currency. james: i don't see either doing anything through this except seeking turf and pubpublicity, disappointing, i have to give credit u.s. attorney, the charging timing of strange given that avoided the testimony on the hill, he has two convictions now or multiple counts two of sam bankman-fried's associates. looks like he has good leverage to get a case against the man himself sorry we have to go any quick reaction? >> no, i look forward to following

fbi director christopher wray identified this is a national security risk.rnment could harness or control people's devices through tiktok. that is what the fbi director says. what is your take on the story? >> i have to say, you see once again the democrats are soft on china, both from a national security point of view and from a domestic policy point of view. look who is at the forefront of this, josh hawley, marco rubio. these are populist wing of the gop party. they understand that china is a huge threat from a national security point of view and a huge threat from a domestic jobs point of view and they're really hammering it home and credit to them. elizabeth: batya, georgia, idaho, utah, a growing number of states banning tiktok on state government devices because of national security concern. so why the foot dragging in d.c.? >> they don't see china as a threat. i don't understand why. i think it has a who the base is, the base is elite. they like cheap products. i will add people who are worried about china and national security and social media, keep

>> yeah, it was mid-november, maria, when christopher wray sent out the first message that basicallytely a connection, as was described by mr. ratcliffe, that the bytedance is the ccp and the ccp is bytedance. so if young americans are getting their news off of the app, they absolutely are being influenced by the chinese communist party. maria: well, i mean, i just want to backtrack for a moment .you said christopher wray told us in november of. i want to go back two years. john ratcliffe was the sitting director of national intelligence and he did the official national security assessment threat on tike and on tiktok andwhat he deemed twos ago a is that tiktok is a major risk and is a threat to the freedom and lib t earth of america and that it -- liberty of america and that it should be banned and that led then president trump to issue two executive orders. one of the executive orders was forcing the sale of tiktok from bytedance to oracle or another technology company and thats was an executive order. but of course joe biden came into office and reversed all of trump's executive o

christopher wray he's out i'm sure of it in the next year. in the year ahead watch him resign because i think there are certain things he was actually against like the trump raid. we'll talk more about that coming up. we're just getting started this morning. more economic data on tap this week. we are previewing november's price index out on friday, what investigators are expecting as we head into the end of the year. saturday night live poking fun at be president joe biden for his latest gaffes. joking that he may have brain damage. we will show you why it's making a buzz this morning. don't miss it. you're watching "mornings with maria" live on fox business. i earn 5% cash back on travel purchased through chase with chase freedom unlimited. i earn 5% on our cabin. hello cashback! hello, kevin hart! earn big time with chase freedom unlimited with no annual fee. how do you cashback? chase. make more of what's yours. cityserve, started rescuing women, children and the elderly. and as winter approaches, they need our help more than ever. from y

christopher wray, the fbi director in a hearing last month said he was very concerned about that andthing is how did we handle all the afghan refugees that came into the united states and the process broke down, the vetting process broke down and are we doing everything we can to make sure we didn't let bad guys from caviezel get into the u.s.. liz: stay with me hang on one second. we have 98 terrorists on the terror watch list caught trying to cross into the u.s. between ports of entry, 380 encounters with terrorists at u.s. borders and ports of entry. that includes multiple encounter s but the botched rationale for pulling out u.s. troops and air cover before getting all americans out, letting the taliban dictate air for security wherever the airlift is being conducted? >> yeah. it was just a colossal series of failures, and what's deeply troubling to me is whether you're a democrat or republican , a conservative or liberal, you should have done oversight to find out why this happened and what we can do to make sure it doesn't happen again and another thing you got to really think

i'm wondering what chris wray knew in washington and how much they were just free-lancing between the on the west coast working at twitter and the current fbi people. how much was that and how much chris wray saying to himself i had no idea about this. >> rachel: election meddling on twitter definitely going on at facebook and google, this is what you saw at twitter these twitter files are the canary in the coal mine. this is a much bigger operation and so ironic that they use these 08 fbi agents working twitter supposedly because they were going to get rid of election interference, they wanted to deal with that and they ended up meddling in our elections. >> steve: all of the latest stuff from matt taibbi has to do with foreign actors. people and this task force was started back in 2017 because of what happened. >> brian: you think only with foreign actors? come on, are you kidding? foreign actor? a bunch of foreigners here. >> rachel: by the way, it wasn't just the fbi was working with twitter, but there were exfbi agents employed. >> brian: glide pat. >> twitter said they had not s
