Devin Nunes Has A Brilliant Suggestion For SUE HAPPY DNC
President Trump taking Jim Comey to task over newly released memos the former FBI
director kept to document his conversations with the president the
Justice Department's inspector general is now investigating if comi mishandled
classified information by giving some of those documents to a friend who then
shared them with a reporter the president calling that move illegal
and saying it raises questions about the mullah Russia investigation meanwhile
three GOP committee chairmen out with a scathing statement on the Comey memos
accusing him of political bias and his interactions with the Obama era
officials versus President Trump I'm joined right now by one of those
lawmakers House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunez is live this
morning at the world eh Expo in California and congressman Nunez is also
a member of the House Ways and Means Committee Conrad it's good to see you
this morning thanks so much for joining us always a pleasure thank you when I
get to that memo the the letter that you have written after the Jim Comey memos
we're out but first let me start here let's pick up where we left off the last
time we spoke mr. chairman you joined us four weeks ago on this program at that
time you said you wanted to get the electronic communication from the
Department of Justice and the FBI wanted that electronic communications to
understand exactly how the Trump admit an investigation into collusion even
began you've now since seen the electronic communication yes
that's correct so it took us a long time to actually get this what's called the
electronic communication as we know now for your viewers what that is is it's
the original intelligence the original reasons that the counterintelligence
investigation was started now this is really important to us because a
counterintelligence investigation uses the tools of our intelligence services
that are not supposed to be used on American citizens so we've long wanted
to know well what intelligence did you have that actually led to this
investigation so what we found now after the investigators have reviewed it is
that in fact there was no intelligence so we have a traditional
have a traditional partnership with what's called the five eyes agreement
five eyes agreement involves our friends in Australia New Zealand the United
Kingdom Canada and of course us so longtime process and procedures in place
where we move intelligence across we are not supposed to spy on each other
citizens and it's worked well and it continues to work well and we know it's
working well because there was no intelligence that passed from five eyes
through the five eyes channels to our government and that's why we had to see
that original communication so now we're trying to figure out as you know we are
investigating the State Department we think there's some major irregularities
at the State Department and we're trying to figure out how it is that this
information about mr. Papadopoulos of all people who was supposedly meeting
with some folks in London how that made it over across into the FBI's hands we
know a little bit about that because of what some of the State Department
officials themselves have said about that so we were glad to get this behind
us but now of course as we pilled another piece back it leaves more
unanswered questions which we're trying to get to the bottom up mr. chairman
you've got to explain what you just said I think this is extraordinary that
you're telling us that in order for the FBI the Department of Justice to launch
an investigation into so-called collusion between President Trump and
the Russians there was no official intelligence used then how how did this
investigation start I don't understand sir please explain well well I think
that's that is the point we we don't understand we've never understood
because you know we have we have access to these finished intelligence products
and we've never seen one we had never so we thought well maybe there was one that
went through a different channel that was kept really quiet that was secret
that was kept from the Congress and and other folks well in fact after our
investigators reviewed this that's that is not what happened there what there
was no five eyes intelligence product as it's been reported there was no product
and I think that's a major problem because we have to have trust with our
with partners with our allies we have to make
sure that our agencies talk and they work out problems we have to make sure
that they don't spy on on either American citizens or that we're not
spying on British citizens these are all things that have been been around for
decades so and this is even more critical let's just let's just at the
highest level what what is this what is this about this was about a
counterintelligence investigation that was at the at the height of a political
campaign where you opened up an investigation using these these
intelligence services to spy on the other campaign it's really serious stuff
it's it's quite extraordinary so you're investigating the State Department does
that mean it was Hillary Clinton pulling the strings I mean here you have Hillary
Clinton former Secretary of State she's the other candidate is she pulling the
strings on an investigation launched on her opponent her political opponent
Donald Trump well we don't know that yet but what I can tell you I can tell you
what we do know we do know that longtime associates of Hillary Clinton including
Sidney Blumenthal and another person and I think Corey Scheer were actively
giving information to the State Department there was somehow making its
way to the FBI this is from this is from two people within the State Department
who have now publicly come out and said this in I think in major news
publications so we know this we know this was at least from at least two
witnesses who have publicly said this and so what we're trying to do is we're
trying to piece all that together we now know that there was no official
intelligence that was used to start this investigation we know that Sidney
Blumenthal and others were pushing information into the State Department so
we're trying to piece all of that together and that's why we continued to
look at the State Department as it relates to Jim Comey as it relates to
the handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation we got these these
Comey memos this week tell me what you got from these memos what struck you
most well the main reason we wanted them out
is because the mainstream media and the Democrats have been running around
talking about collusion collusion collusion when they when they figured
out there was no collusion they moved on to obstruction of justice obstruction of
justice obstruction of justice what mr. gowdey who was able to review
these a long time ago and mr. Goodlatte had said and now we know this from
reading them is that once you read all of the Comey memos it becomes Exhibit A
in a defense against that there was no obstruction of justice so this would so
I think when you read all of them good legal minds review these when you have
the President of the United States saying look investigate all of my people
if anybody in my campaign was colluding with the Russians I want to know and
they need to be brought to justice something of that nature is in the Comey
memos so this is why the Comey memos needed to get out because you know if
there is obstruction of justice we want to know about it but clearly there
wasn't and that's what the Comey memos prove now I think for mr. Comey when you
match up his memos with what's in his book with the interviews that he's
giving I think he's got a lot of problems coming in the future as it
relates to what the IG is looking at into his behavior in the conjoining the
Clinton email investigation well well what kind of problems I mean we know
that the IG has recommended criminal charges against his former deputy Andrew
McCabe where's that go what does that mean criminal charges where do you where
do you see that going and is that the same fate that we will see for Jim Comey
well it's hard to say right now but we know that so Mr McCabe has been
recommended that that he face criminal charges
now his lawyer and he has a right to her his lawyer has said no this is not true
what the IG mr. Comey is lying essentially is what mr. McCabe is saying
that that Comey did give him the right to go talk to the press so you know this
all has to be fleshed out clearly the IG doesn't believe the IG believed mr.
Comey that Comey did not get mr. McCabe the ability to go talk to the press now
as it relates to mr. Comey you've got the added problem now
that the memos that he wrote the seven memos that he decided to write on
President Trump never wrote memos on any of the other meetings he had with with
the other president or the the AG or anyone else prior to this but he wrote
kept seven memos four of those were classified he decided to launder them to
a friend who then leaked them to the New York Times if those memos contain
classified information he purposely did that he purposely leaked them in order
to get a special counsel started after he was fired he leaked pieces of these
so we need to figure out exactly what is it that he leaked who did he give these
memos to and was it just the friend that leaked into the New York Times or were
there others I believe there were others i think i think that these Comey memos
were actually given to several people it contained classified information
the irony is the very thing that mr. Comey cleared mrs. Clinton up real quick
we're gonna take a break right here but but with all of what you're saying
whether it's no official intelligence the president pushing to find out the
truth no obstruction of justice are these reasons to shut down this robert
muller special counsel probe well look I I in the beginning I
actually supported special counsel because I thought okay mr. Moeller will
come in longtime FBI guy he will quickly see that there's no evidence of
collusion which they're what they will because we had not seen any just like I
said we've not seen any intelligence product that shows that there was any
collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians but that he would he would
quickly go after the felony that occurred when general Flynn was talking
to the Russian ambassador and all of that information was leaked out which is
a major felony at the highest level so I thought great will have a special
counsel they'll close those leaks we'll figure out who that was well that never
happened it appears like this was clearly what started as a
counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign they drilled a bunch
of dry holes never found any collusion they moved to obstruction they've got a
special counsel and now God knows where this is going to go that I think the
American people are getting sick and tired of it
well they did manage to raid Michael Cohen's office and home and hotel room
let's not forget chairman is stay with us we've got more to talk about and I
want to get your reaction to this next story the same people who helped fund
that salacious and unverified Trump dossier
welcome back the Democratic National Committee filing a lawsuit on Friday
against the Trump campaign Russia and WikiLeaks alleging conspiracy to
undercut Democrats in the 2016 presidential election by stealing tens
of thousands of emails and documents we're back with congressman Devin Nunez
chairman of the House Intelligence Ott's your reaction to this lawsuit to all my
first thought is is that it's just some kind of joke this must be a joke I mean
we we know who colluded with Russians they don't want to admit that they
colluded with Russians but they hired fusion Jeep they hired a law firm that
hired fusion GPS that hired a British spy that went and colluded with Russians
so I don't understand why they just didn't open up a lawsuit against
themselves they should name themselves and sue themselves so that they can get
to the bottom of what do they have on their servers why didn't they give those
servers to the FBI this is this is nothing more nothing less than a
continuation of fundraising off of this scandal this is made to play to the far
left in this country so that the far left will continue to write checks
because they don't believe that President Trump won the election fair
and square because the media most of the media in this country has continued this
narrative that there was collusion there was obstruction that Trump was somehow
involved with Putin and Putin helped to steal this election we've now looked at
all this none of that is true but the Democrats need a way to keep their base
motivated to turnout in November and they need a way to continue to raise
money and they're raising millions and millions and millions of dollars to
target Republicans over this Russia Fiasco it's incredible but yet the only
place where there's a Russia Fiasco is is with them so this is a fundraising
exercise why not why doesn't the RNC come back and say we're suing you for
the same exact reason given the fact that we know the bias at the top of the
FBI we know that they were have already been felonies we know about the leaking
and the fact that the FBI the DOJ and and perhaps the CIA we're all in it to
try to get Hillary to win and keep Donald Trump from from winning I mean
it's the same thing once again there hang on you what they're doing is that
right that's right well I always I always like to say whatever the left
accuses you of doing they're doing themselves exactly what you have here
mr. chairman what about those services I mean remember we're all about the
service I'm Bobby what the National Committee got hacked you would think
that the DNC wants that might and the power and the strength of the US
government behind them to find out who hacked how come all these emails are out
in the public view and yet they didn't do that at all they didn't give the
server to the FBI they hired a private company to look at their servers exactly
so the obvious question here is is that you know once once you were notified by
the FBI that maybe somebody had hacked into your system for sure once those
emails became public right and they came public I think July in July mid July you
you think you would immediately call the FBI in to try to figure out and get to
the bottom of what had happened yeah but that that didn't happen there's must be
a reason why they didn't want the FBI to come in yeah I think we probably know
the reason why there was probably a lot of bad things that were on that work
that were on that system real quick mr. chairman switch gears tomorrow we've got
the vote from the Senate Committee on mr. Pompeo in terms of becoming the new
secretary of state your thoughts on what we'll see tomorrow out of this vote for
mr. Pompeo well mr. Pompeo should have been
confirmed weeks ago this is really the number three person in our government we
have we have high-level negotiations going on with the with North Korean with
the North Koreans now in South Koreans trying to solve that that long-standing
conflict mr. Pompeo was already confirmed as the director of the FBI
he's a good man he knows what he's doing the president trusts him this is about
our nation's national security and the United States Senate should stop playing
politics with our national security so a president has a right to hire whoever he
wants especially as it relates to someone with national security we should
not let domestic politics get involved in this decision and the Senate should
do its job and do it quickly all right well we'll see what happens
tomorrow that mr. Sherman good to see you sir thanks
very much for joining us this morning thank you we will be watching the
developments Devin Nunez they are a growing number of communities in
California meanwhile siding with the Trump administration thank you
god bless you and God bless america
