congressman peter king for instance criticizing today s memo tweet. that was just a political response. he has not disputed one fact in this four page report. this is a devastating indictment of his tenure at the fbi. recently comey has been teaching an eth 24iics course a has kept himself busy on twitter. comey has never directly mentioned president trump in a tweet. if he s trying to counter the president s fbi narrative, twitter might not be the best memo. comey has an unimpressive 708 followers, but the president has 47 million. shannon: thank you. senator john mccain taking on his old rival president trump for a proving the release felt memo. saying quote if we continue to undermine our own rule of law we are doing putin s job for him.
whether you agree with most of it or you don t it had to have the fbi wondering what is it with carter page? he keeps coming back up on the radar. now we have the papadopoulos situation. it was a completely valid thing as a law enforcement officer. as a person who has authorized these search warrants and my last point, what amazes me that i love about this story is finally as a former civil rights litigator arguing against police brutality usually with black and brown people, people are finally now concerned about the constitutional rights of individuals and that s a good thing. it s interesting you bring up papadopoulos, it s number five in the memo. papadopoulos had nothing to do with page. there was no association, no conspiracy, and it shouldn t have been used in the warrant against him. they were both working for the trump campaign. shannon: oh boy. volunteers or associated at some point. thank you both. night court is over. time for one of the most important stories of the
what does james comey think about continue versus i can t fisa memo released today? we ll be digging in deeper to his tweet tirade. and former trump campaign aid carter page is ram ping up his lawsuits in the wake of the memo. you owned your car for four years. you named it brad. you loved brad. and then you totaled him. you two had been through everything together. two boyfriends, three jobs. you re like nothing can replace brad. then liberty mutual calls. and you break into your happy dance. if you sign up for better car replacement™, we ll pay for a car that s a model year newer with 15,000 fewer miles than your old one. liberty stands with you™. liberty mutual insurance.
continue as clearly in the polls of the majority of the american people do, it s overwhelming. when you put out this kind of memo i don t think there s any question it damages the reputation of the fbi. we the listened to your very good interview of congressman gates. he was saying the fbi was biased and used plaolitically weapon es did i think he said in a way that was intended to damage one political candidates campaign. if you believe that and you believe the deputy did he want and in particular rod rosenstein signed off on fisa requests knowing this was false, of course as an american you would say, hey that s not us, that s not the american people. that s wrong. so that would therefore call into question the entire probe. shannon: alright. well there are republicans cluting trey gowdy that says that s not when it s about. another tweet comes to us from
colluded with the russians and that somebody even used laundered money to pay for campaign dirt that was partially paid for by russian agents. that somebody was not the trump campaign. that should matter a great deal to mueller. so where does this investigation go from here? the espns from james comey on twitter was, that s it? my response being a child of the 80 s, where s the beef? what was this memo supposed to tell us? all it told us was carter page was a nobody, an irrelevant nothing. he had no involvement of any substance in the came pain. never talked to then candidate trump. was surveilled three weeks after he left the campaign. he was no longer part of it. and a mere two or three weeks before election day, this is the big scandal is that they surveilled carter page at that .2 or three weeks before the election itself, someone who had been on the doj s radar since 2013 for communicating with
