recently, that is not a good thing. you mentioned that i was on the house oversight committee. i think back to the lowest e-mails and they said they were lost and the inspector general found them within an hour and the missing texts, those have been found by the inspector general. we need to restore the credibility to the american people and to me if there is nothing no national security being breached, i think the american people should have access to this information. it devin nunez credible here? he was a member of the donald trump transition. that seems like a pretty major conflict of interest. well-if you hold that standard, you could look back at not just republicans and democrats who went out and worked very hard for whatever presidential campaign, whether it was hillary clinton or bernie sanders or even throughout our history, i don t think that precludes or disqualifies for someone being straightforward and honest. devin nunez was part of the transition, he s been work
not at all. on the contrary, it undermines the chances of peace, totally destroys american creditability standing, influence and disqualifies from taking any role in peace making in the future and sends a message that you can impose unilaterally outside the law and get away with it. but if you commit to a negotiated settlement based on legality and justice then you get no compilation. this has moved the u.s. from being a so-called peace broker to becoming complicit with israel and its crime. israel has jerusalem legally in 1967 and has placed west jerusalem under its sovereignty in 1948 even though its legal status remains as separate. we have so-called peace broker that has taken sides blatantly and has rewarded impunity and has sold out the palestinian people as well as the chances of
in the star-spangled banner controversy. the naacp in california wants congress to get rid of the national anthem all together. members of the organization are calling it, quote, racist and anti-black. we are joined live with more on this. you ll have to explain it to us, william. well, melissa, the nfl kneeling controversy prompted the naacp to look at the anthem which contains a rarely sung third verse which talks about slaves. the group claims those lyrics are racist, divisive, anti-black and disqualifies the star spangled banner as the national anthem. francis scott key wrote those words in 1814 as he watched british warships bomb fort mchenry in baltimore. it became the national anthem in 1916 and affirmed by congress in 31. here are the lyrics the naacp finds offensive. no refuge could save the
then there s really no idea whether, in fact, what they re saying is what he knows to be true. look, he s supposedly in charge of naming the next fbi director. this news alone for many members of congress and i think on both sides of the aisle, they may make an argument this disqualifies him from naming a new fbi director. this memo itself, that is going to be hard for anybody to handle in a confirmation hearing. reporter: he said it s going to be a fast decision. he said they re making good progress, said that decision could come before the end of this week. we know senator john cornyn has withdrawn his name from consideration as fbi director. there was focus on whether there should be a partisan politician even considered, let alone being selected as the fbi director in this process here. but for this president right now, remember it is the attorney general jeff sessions who pledged to recuse himself from anything relating to the russia investigation who is helping the deputy att
so for counterintelligence investigation that s a fairly short period of time. july. the fbi has been investigating whether or not trump s campaign coordinated with a foreign adversary to influence the election since july of 2016 and yet the fbi never publicly talked about that investigation we now know existed until yesterday. the investigation they did talk about was the one into hillary clinton s e-mails. in july, that same director, james comey, publicly announced his recommendation not to prosecute hillary clinton and then just 11 days before the election he told congress the fbi was reviewing a new batch of e-mails only to conclude on november 6, two days before the election, the new e-mails did not change anything. and during all of that, it now turns out the fbi was also out of the public eye investigating donald trump s campaign. all i m saying is that she s under investigation by the fbi. just pause and think about that. that s a pretty uncommon thing for a presidential c
