Accusing the agency of being biased against him while investigating his alleged links to russia donald trump tweeted the top leadership and investigators of the f. B. I. And the Justice Department have politicized the sacret investigative process in favor of democrats and against republicans something which would have been unthinkable just a short time ago rank and file are great people so this comes as the white house is expected to authorize the release of a controversial memo alleging f. B. I. Bias towards President Trump the document was commissioned by republican devon unas who heads the House Intelligence Committee and was part of the trunk campaign it reported he accuses the f. B. I. And Justice Department of misleading a charge while seeking to extend a surveillance warrant against former trump a carter page last march democrats say the memo is an attempt to derail special counsel Robert Miller as investigation into the trunk campaigns links to russia our White House Correspondent joins me live now and so ken really a great deal going on what is the expected fallout from all of this. Well you know what there isnt really a great deal going on here if you think about it weve been for days talking about the imminent release of a memo and whats going on is a bunch of politicians in washington finger pointing which is really just intensified in recent days but the fact of the matter is is that well the u. S. Media tends to be reporting with breathless intensity an imminent release of a memo the memo still hasnt come and given the hype now it may be hard for it to live up to its expectations in fact weve heard from some sources that in fact it may fall flat in terms of the president s expectation that theres going to be public outcry and hell finally be vindicated from this ongoing montor that he has had for not months but more than a year that essentially the highest levels of the f. B. I. And the department of justice have been weaponized against him democrats have been saying all along what they believe is this is a well orchestrated effort to undermine the outcome of the russia probe headed by the special counsel Robert Muller we simply dont know because it hasnt been released weve been told that the president was cautioned in fact by his chief of staff john kelly that this may not have the expected impact still the president insisted this must be made public we know sections of it have been redacted have headed back to capitol hill at some point for the release but again the release we just dont know but that does not stop this sort of feverish around the clock attempt to discuss the contents of the speculation is growing by the hour about what may be inside but again it may not be as much as the president is hoping it will be in terms of content nevertheless we see the president determined to have this released hes forging ahead despite. The caution that weve heard from his closest advisers the fact that he is attacking the top leadership of the country the f. B. I. Justice officials could be implications if a national security. There could be implications are on many levels not Just National security but in terms of Civil Liberties of americans may suddenly have a spotlight on something that theyve long walk to the closer look at and that is the whole process of surveillance under the Foreign Service intelligence that this is been a secret court a secret process that many civil libertarians have been concerned about for years even human rights activists that this could be used in a rather in which it was not intended that certainly is something that could be revealed from this but at the same time whats so striking about all of this is that the president isnt direct conflicts and defiance of people he put in place to run the f. B. I. Christopher ray who said earlier this week his grave concerns about this being released he is an appointee of donald trump so the fact that the president is now clashing with those that he put in place to help him is certainly remarkable certainly there will be a political fall out the question is whether it will be as the president intends all right thanks very much kimberly following developments as they on fold as we await the release of that my thank you.
