Thank you for joining me. Im fredricka whitfield. Breaking news in the renewed Hillary Clinton email scandal. James comey went above his superiors to make the bombshell announcement they found new emails linked to her server and will now review the investigation.

An honor of a lifetime for joe biden. An unbelievable surprise and emotional moment you want to see. A three hanky afternoon at the white house. Welcome to early start. Im john berman. Im christine romans. It is friday, january 13th. Friday the 13th. 5 00 a. M. Ill focus on the friday. No more cabinet confirmation hearings today. The hearings over the past four days of the week had enough unusual moments to last a month. Mainly because again and again, the president elects nominees contradicted the man they hope to be their boss. It was Homeland Security and secretary of state nominees who veered off script. Then james mattis and mike pompeo demonstrated daylight between them and president elect donald trump. Including russia. Reporter ryan browne joins us from washington. Good morning, ryan. Reporter good morning, christine. There were moments where the picks for National Security positions differed from him significantly. When it came to general james mattis, those differences came o
Threat. James comey better hope there are no tapes of our conversation before he starts leaking to the press. The genesis of this appeared to to be an article in the New York Times today suggesting that james comey had been asked by the president during one of their conversations, might have been dinner here at the white house earlier in the year to pledge loyalty to the president. Now, the president denied to our judge Jeanine Pirro today that he ever asked that question. But it seems that the president maybe got an idea that james comey was leaking the contents of some of their conversation. And then that would go to the idea that the president had said that the fbi director told him on three occasions that he was not under investigation in connection with with the russia investigation at the fbi. Of course, this is all a very big topic of conversation. The questioning at the detailingly briefing today. Lets watch this exchange between my colleague from reuters and sean spicer. I ass
They dominate our streets. Getting physical with the Vice President. A persistent little boy who felt he was owed an apology. Freedom freedom the helicopter, we are looking toward the sunrise in the new york city area. The images courtesy of channel 5, the fox station in new york city, beautiful start to a beautiful friday, thanks for joining us on the number one cable morning news show. Lots of news to talk about including the interview with donald trump. Sits down with lester holt at a network that has not given them a fair shake almost from day one. He chooses to go to the people, if you watch 5 minutes of the network or their Cable Network they dont deserve the president s quality time, going to the lions den so to speak, he spoke to lester holt, a man that would speak to president obama and interrupted once every 29 minutes would interrupt this president nine times in two minutes. The question of why you fired james comey, the president said this. I want to find out if there was a
Done was particularly striking. Director comey is a respected career Law Enforcement official, Public Servant. He was fired essentially through the press. He found out that he had been fired while he was speaking to fbi personnel in los angeles. There were press reports that a letter had been delivered to the fbi headquarters. Thats about as brazen and aggressive a way as you can fire somebody. As you referenced here, President Trumps letter saying you have told me three times im not under investigation just seems to protest too much the idea that theres nothing going on here other than sort of clearing the decks. I will remind you, director comey is just in the third year of his tenyear term. If this really was the reason for his firing, why wasnt he fired in the first few days of the Trump Administration . What happens now . Democrats can wring their hands and say there should be a special prosecutor. How does that happen unless its from the department of justice, from Rod Rosenstein
