MISCHIEF AS IT APPEARS IN THE
SO-CALLED COLLUSION SCANDAL.
OUR FIRST GUEST TONIGHT
REVEALING SHOCKING NEW DETAILS
CONCERNING HILLARY CLINTON'S
E-MAIL SYSTEM THAT ILLICIT
ANTHONY WEINER'S LAPTOP.
WEINER OF COURSE ONCE MARRIED TO
DIRECTOR OF
WHICH SUCCESSFULLY FILE A
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT
REQUEST TO RELEASE THESE VERY
DOCUMENTS.
CHRIS FIRST OF ALL
CONGRATULATIONS ON GETTING THESE
NOW, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
THESE ARE IN FACT CLASSIFIED AT
CLINTON AT HOME.
>> THAT IS CORRECT LOU AND
THANKS.
IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT
DISTINCTION BE MADE.
PRODUCED AND TRANSMITTED.
THEY'RE NOT SO-CALLED
RETROACTIVELY CLASSIFIED.
THAT'S A SMOKE SCREEN AND THEY
WERE CLASSIFIED WHEN THEY WERE
WRITTEN.
THEY WERE CLASSIFIED WHEN THEY
WERE TRANSMITTED AND CLASSIFIED
WHEN THEY WERE A RESIDENT ON THE
WEINER LAPTOP.
LOU: AND THE FBI INVESTIGATORS
PRESUMABLY KNEW THAT DID THEY
NOT?
THEY JUST DIDN'T SHARE IT WITH
THE PUBLIC.
>> ABSOLUTELY AND I HAVE A TID
BIT CONCERNING MR. GRASSLEY AND
THE COMEY MEMOS THAT MAYBE
JUMPING AHEAD A BIT BUT THIS IS
IMPORTANT.
>> WE HAVE A SWORN DECLARATION
HERE FROM DAVID HARDY WHOSE THE
AND IN THAT SWORN DECLARATION
CLASSIFIED AT THE TIME THEY WERE
WRITTEN AND THEY REMAIN
CLASSIFIED, SO THE KIND OF OPEN
QUESTION FOR MR. GRASSLEY ABOUT
IS IT FOUR OF SEVEN OR WHAT TIME
WERE THEY?
THE FBI.
THEY WERE CLASSIFIED AT THE TIME
COMEY WROTE THEM.
LOU: AND WHILE THAT MAY NOT BE
DETERMINANT, I SUPPOSE AT SOME
POINT FORWARD IN LITIGATION
SHOULD IT COME TO THAT, IT IS
DETERMINANT IN THE CASE OF FOIA
AND GIVES US A CLEAR
UNDERSTANDING IT WOULD SEEM THE
THINKING OF THE FBI AS TO THE
LEVEL OF CLASSIFICATION FOR ALL
OF THOSE MEMORANDUM.
>> WELL IT'S ALSO MISHANDLING OF
NATIONAL DEFENSE INFORMATION
WHICH IS A CRIME SO IT'S CLEAR
THAT MR. COMEY NOT ONLY AUTHORED
THOSE DOCUMENTS BUT THEN KNOWING
WHICH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A
NATIONAL SECURITY CRIME.
MR. COMEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN READ
HIS RIGHTS BACK ON JUNE 8 WHEN
HE TESTIFIED BEFORE THE SENATE.
LOU: AND HE'S NOT BEEN READ HIS
RIGHTS YET?
HE'S NOT BEEN CHARGED YET.
WHO WOULD BE THE CHARGING PARTY
WOULD IT BE THE FBI ITSELF OR --
>> OR THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF
THE UNITED STATES THE DEPARTMENT
OF JUSTICE WOULD BRING AN
INDICTMENT ONCE THEY GET A GRAND
JURY BUT THE INVESTIGATIVE
PROCESS OF COURSE WOULD BE
CONDUCTED BY THE FBI.
LOU: AND THE FBI HE ONCE LED HAS
TO BE FURIOUS THAT HE HAS SULLIE
D THE SAME OF THE AGENCY
POLITICIZED BUT ITS BEGINNING TO
LOOK AS THOUGH NOTHING TOUCHED
THE FBI DURING THE OBAMA YEARS.
>> RECENTLY RETIRED AND ACTIVE
DUTY FBI AGENTS HAVE TOLD ME AND
SEVERAL OF THEM THAT THEY
CONSIDER COMEY TO BE A DIRTY COP
LOU: A DIRTY COP AND ONE WHOSE
CERTAINLY BIAS AS HE TALKS ABOUT
--
HIS TWEETS WITH BIBLE VERSUS AND
WHATEVER ELSE HE'S BEEN WRITING
RECENTLY.
AND THE PHOTOGRAPHY THAT HE HAS
COMMITTED OUT IN THE MIDWEST.
