trump and hillary clinton investigation. maybe he would talk if he knows mueller has written the exoneration memo but it is a fact hillary clinton was interviewed on july 2, over the fourth of july weekend and that next tuesday, next business day james comey came out and announced there would be no charges against her. an exoneration memo was begun well before any of those interviews. a lot of republicans will be saying wow, that s really different treatment from what donald trump is getting from the mueller office. bill: a lot of ways to slice this every day. thank you, sir, nice to see you. byron york in washington sandra: fox news hosting the gop senate primary debate in west virginia last night. three candidates taking the stage sparring over who should get the nomination and who is the biggest backer of president donald trump. donald trump won the mountaineer state handily and
meeting between president trump and kim jong-un. something that pompeo is already doing as cia director. the administration, its diplomacy they want the confirmation out of the senate. bill: a lot of drama surrounding that. thank you, rich. sandra: attorney general jeff sessions threatening to resign if president trump fires deputy attorney general rod rosenstein. that news coming from the washington post . this coming as a dozen republican lawmakers have written a letter to the justice department demanding a criminal investigation into james comey and members of the obama administration over their handling of the clinton email probe. here is republican congressman ron desantis on sunday morning futures. you look at somebody like jim comey. he testified before us in congress that he did not decide to exonerate hillary until after her interview and subsequent efforts of oversight unearthed the memo that he
wrote two months before he interviewed hillary that was an exoneration memo. does the law apply equally to anyone or does anyone associated to trump get nailed? sandra: jim jordan, honor to have you on set this morning, sir. what exactly is going on here and what are republicans asking for? a couple things. first of all jim comey has messed this thing up from the get go. i criticized him in july of 2016 and october when he reopened the clinton investigation. i think throughout this process he has been wrong and sort of confirmed when you looked at some of the things he wrote in the memos that we got to see last week. one of the questions we have is on the michael cohen raid. was the attorney general consulted? did rod rosenstein talk to the attorney general? this raid was run out of not under the umbrella of the
that was an exoneration memo, and then i think with this michael cohen raid supposedly about the sbc violation it made a lot of us question okay hillary clinton s campaign they paid a law firm who then laundered the money to fusion gps who then paid a foreign national christopher steele who then colluded with russians to create this anti-trump dossier and yet there was never any sbc case that i m aware of that was open so does the law apply equally to everybody or is it just anyone whose associated with trump gets nailed and anybody else in high positions of authority, you know, they get a pass. maria: well it seems so extraordinary, congressman, i mean everything you ve just lined up everything we just spoke to, devon nunes about the fact that there was no official intelligence whatsoever used to launch an investigation into trump. i don t understand how robert mueller is not looking at any of this. i mean, they authorized a raid of michael cohen s home, office and hotel room and yet
i d love to follow up on that question and say what kind of flexibility did you get from not putting her in front of a grand jury? well, look, i think his statements and his interviews are mystifying. i think he has to defend against people from the hillary clinton campaign saying he sabotaged that, from the trump campaign saying he sabotaged that. he believes he had to make the decisions based on politics, polls, his own standing. hillary would have been his incoming boss. i find now that he s completely blown the credibility of the fbi in this book that he s issued to make millions of dollars here. not just in the public interest. it s really quite shocking. martha: nancy savage is with us. we had some trouble establishing her line. i want to bring her in. she s a former fbi agent. thanks for being with us today. i want to play this one about how he was able to draft the exoneration memo prior to interviewing hillary clinton.
