Hillary clinton during the campaign. Joseph schmitz pushed the fbi and house intelligence to review materials from the dark web he thought were clintons missing emails from her private service. Sources describe schmitz as relentless but they believe the tae the material was take. Jick jim sciutto will be here with that. And praising scott pruitt even though he is under fire for renting a cut rate condo from Energy Lobbyists but the president said pruitt, is quote, a good man. Which might be the kiss of death in this administration. Ask rex tillerson, hr. Mcmaster, steve bannon, michael flynn, anybody on the outs. And he hits Vladimir Putin where he lives with undeniably tough sanctions against a group of oligarchs with ties to the russian president. So how will putin respond . Well figure that out. Plus the dow tumbling 572 points on fear of a bruising trade war with china. And the president said this im not saying there wont be a little pain. But were going to have a much stronger cou
mixed up in efforts to find dirt on hillary clinton during the campaign pushing what he thought were clinton s missing mails. here with that story is security correspondent jim sciutto and editor at large chris elisa and security analyst samantha vingrat. what could you tell us about what the campaign adviser was trying to do with what he thought were hillary clinton missing mails. joseph schmitz in the famous photo with donald trump and jeff sessions and the foreign policy team right next to george papadapoulos and he had a serious background and he was a d.o.d. official in the bush administration. and he would later be considered for secretary of the navy by trump when he was elected president. so he obtained what he believes are the deleted hillary clinton e-mails from the dark web and multiple sources told us he was relentless in trying to get these cleared and verified and
the state intelligence and did he do the right thing by taking the materials to them. this sounds like it might be different from the other stories we ve heard. he did seemingly go to authorities and say i have legally obtained information and let s do splg with i somethin it. but i m listening to this and my thought is shady people do shady things with other shady people. a guy with a client on the dark web, i don t even know what the dark web is. i don t know what you use it for, that is anything good. this information just lands in his lap. don jr. gets contacted by wikileaks and papadapoulos just contacted about this information and just too cute avenue coincidence and i ask what was the interview process for the campaign. was the basic question do you know how to get legal information or know somebody who does rather than policy experience. all of the best people. right. yeah. was that chris? that was me. i was just going one quick
meeting at the trump tower, they believe there was something here to disqualify her and they thought they needed that out of nowhere shot to take her out because simply te didn t think they had a chance short of that. well sam, they certainly seemed obsessed with getting hillary clinton s e-mails and to to both chris and jim s point, he was one of the first five campaign foreign policy advisers named by the trump campaign and others were carter page, george papadapoulos and who pled guilty to mueller to lying. so what does this say about the cast of characters that trump had working for him. that is not who i think anyone would want advising us on anything other than doing something illegal. and i think that schmitz is just the latest in the group of shady characters surrounding donald trump and there is a point that we haven t discussed which is the russians all knew that these campaign characters were trying to get access to illegal information and that is exactly why the rus
