Civil liberties of americans and taking sides in the political contests. You cant trust a government that would do that and Many Americans dont. Thats a disaster in a democracy where trust is key. Transparency is the only antidote to that. Release all documents and let us decide what they mean. Maybe that will make us trust the government again. Democrats disagree. Last week Party Leaders and the media were yelling at us about how releasing the nunes memo would constitute a deadly threat to america. Then the memo came out. Whatever you think of the mems conclusions, you have to concede there was not a single thing in there you should not have been allowed to see. No classified weapons discussed or names of secret agents revealed. Democrats didnt want it released because it might embarrass them. We spoke to a california congressman a member of the House Intelligence Committee. None of this should have been secret. Why did you fight to keep it hidden . He didnt answer that. He accused of
Told agent strzok, one more thing, she might be our next president. The last thing you need, is coming in there, you think she will remember or care that it was more doj than the fbi . Strzok told paige that he agreed. Political concerns were at the top of mind as they investigated the politician. Congressman trey gowdy chairs the Oversight Committee in the house and is a member of the Intelligence Committee and joins us to react. Congressman, thanks for coming on. Are we reading too deeply into the exchange we just put on the screen, do you think . I dont think so. You read that in isolation. If you read all the text, it is clear that they did not want her charged, they wanted her to be the president of the United States. They really, really did not want donald trump to be president of the United States and they concede throughout these texts that they did things differently in this investigation from any other investigation and they were a part of. Tucker what i dont understand, even
Violating the Civil Liberties of americans arent taking sides and political contests. You can trust a government that would do Something Like that and Many Americans dont. That is a disaster in a democracy, when the trust of the population is key. Transparency is the only antidote to that. So release all the documents, all relevant documents, and let the rest of us decide what they mean. Maybe that will make us trust our government again. Nothing else well. Democrats disagree with that. Just last week, Party Leaders and their lackeys and my radio were yelling at the rest of us about how releasing the nunes memo would constitute a deadly threat to america. They said that four days. Then the memo came out. Ca whatever you think of its conclusions,nk you got to be honest and can see there was not a single thing in there that you should not of been allowed to see. There were no classified weapons programsns discussed, no names f secret agents are revealed. Democrats, it turns out, they did
First ought to be the principle of every administration by definition its an american administration. America should be first. But thats not the motto of most administrations. Not even hardly. Second, the alternatives to what we have now are scary and getting scarier. The Democratic Party is completely irresponsible and increasingly antiamerican. They prefer illegals aliens to our middle class its true and terrifying. Somebody needs to defend the country from these people. Trump mostly does that for these reasons most of president s supporters have stuck by him no matter what has happened and a lot has happened. But there is a limit to the tolerance. They will not tolerate and they shouldnt have to tolerate by the way betrayal on the core promises of his campaign. And it seems to be happening on guns, unfortunately. A few days ago the president called for raising the minimum age for buying a gun to 21. By the way thats four years after we let people join the military. They can join at
Country. And yet a suddenly because of an act of congress that few people noticed, montenegro has profound significance to every american. Since last year, montenegro has been a member of the nato alliance. That means if it ever findsn itself in a war, our military is pledged to defend it. Thats called a defense guarantee. Defense guarantees dont seem like a big deal until suddenlyly they are, thats when the First World War started. 37 million casualties later the world began to rethink the wisdom of treaties like that but thet lesson seems to have been lost since. In our interview with President Trump in finland we thought it might be worth having a conversation or starting one about americans obligations to nato. We ask the simple question, why is it in our interest to defend the territorial integrity of montenegro . Why should our soldiers fight andol die on its behalf . Heres the exchange were had. So membership in nato obligates members to defend any other member from attack. Lets
