but i think it s important we have the documentation. my only last point i would make about attorney general jeff sessions is that again this is an extraordinary moment and the fact that we are all relying on attorney general sessions to hold the line on the rule of law is an indication of how seriously he took president trump s threats to rosenstein. and frankly, what would be the other reason to fire rosenstein? there would be no other reason. nothing that he s done, other than been the person who s sanctioning the mueller investigation. there s nothing you can make up about him. so i think this is an obvious case of the attorney general feeling the president was on the verge of obstructing justice. joyce, finally, donald trump s efforts have led to the public feuding between james comey and his former deputy
than been the person who s sanctioning the mueller investigation. there s nothing you can make up about him. so i think this is an obvious case of the attorney general feeling the president was on the verge of obstructing justice. joyce, finally, donald trump s efforts have led to the public feuding between james comey and his former deputy mccabe this week. the supposition or suggestion that maybe there are possible charges against mccabe. the sustained public attacks on these individuals shock and page. do you think president trump has been more effective than people realize in a focussed way targetitarge targeting every high level witness mueller would have. one of the strengths of doj as an institution is its reliance on policy to guide its
donald trump. it s a good look for you. i don t care how it looks, baby, i don t care how it looks. just from an investigative legal per spencer christiantive, there is a lot that is salacious and not probative. what is probative that takes more time, asking, why did the president of the united states need a loyalty oath from the fbi director and his deputy mccabe, why was he fixated on mccabe. why did he show such a mass tri of comey one, comey two, comey three in the hillary investigation. i ll pass you back the ball because you re our moderator today. why is donald trump so fixated on how the fbi works and whether it can be used to indict hillary clinton and whether the number two at the fbi is a threat to him personally. i don t think that has much to do with the unverified part of the dossier. i wonder what else he knows that relates to michael cohen proceedings in new york that s where i m going. that relates to the things done by manafort and gates. why is donald trump,
permitting democrats to ask questions or the release of the two memos that we have seen and i think this has been at play here. eboni: we will see if we can get this open. kevin, do you think democrats are doing disservice here by not waiting on the full report from the ig s office or any other details around exactly why mccabe was firing and really jump to go a conclusion, some of them that this is all a political stunt and this is all the president working to kind of undermine the credibility of mueller? sure, it s on the part of the president tweeting last night even before deputy mccabe director was notified that he was fired from the position. we have more questions and answer. alex and i are in agreement that we should have open hearings that we should release the oig reports so that transparency are in public and house and senate judiciary committees should weigh in on whether the firings, jim comey or andrew mccabe are political in nature by the white house. eboni: sure, spea
to be according to diplomats. i will tell you one silver lining, some of our infrastructure and its systems are so old not digital, analog, that s good thing. the older the gear is, the harder it is to hack. shepard: we need dial phones back, right? right. dial phones. hard to hack. shepard: our number was 252 when i was a child. strong memory. shepard: old man. have a great weekend. sources tell fox news that the attorney general jeff sessions has until tomorrow to fire the former fbi director or deputy mccabe before his pension kicks in. mccabe has worked at the bureau for 22 years. he has been a target of president trump on twitter, no doubt. he stepped down from his deputy director position in january. but remains on the payroll and is scheduled to retire this sunday. sources tell fox news that the fbi officials are recommending that jeff sessions fire mccabe before then. if that happens, mccabe could lose his entire
