but he lied, he leaked, he s a disreputable head of the fbi. he s af disgrace to the fbi. he usedce it for political purposes, the report demonstrates all of that. laura: clapper was on cnn tonight, did anyone ask him a question about it?not one quest. i m not sure if clapper knows where he is. brennan is the brains, clapper is the idiot. if you want me to guess who orchestrated this, clapper is not capable. i won t tell you who i think did. laura: rudy, here s what comey said when he was asked the reason for briefing trump backso in january of 2017 on that phoney june 2017, on the steele dossier. it was important for me to assure him we were not personally investigating him. and i didn t want him thinking i was briefing him on this to sort of hang it over him in some way. i was briefing him on it because we had been told by the media it was about to launch. we didn t want to be keeping that from him. and i was keen not to leave him
the southern district of new york back in 1987. joining me now, rudy g., new york city mayor. personal attorney. we have a lot to get into. but what s the personal takeaway from this report which is exceedingly detailed. unlike the special counsel s report, well written. i think this report, forget whether it s a crime or not, sort of details the worst director in the history of the fbi. in the history of the fbi. take jay edgar hoover put him aside, whatever he did, this guy, he w broke every rule. if you look at the horowitz report, he broke every rule of the fbi. now, i think he should be prosecuted. if you if you don t think he should be prosecuted, okay. but, for him to say i didn t leak, the report demonstrates that he leaked. he s completely lying today. i didn t lie? the report demonstrates he lied. it just they re giving him a break. they re basically saying, oh young know, we shouldn t prosecute, not enough evidence.
comey s schick. it s kind of remarkable they did because only a little prior they had been blaming him for everything that happened to hillary clinton in the loss of the election. that was thrown over the board. if they completely accepted the russian collusion hoax, they treated him as if he were credible. anybody who criticized him, they rule ofre attacking the law, a or attacking our institutions. now we find out he was the only one attacking the institutions like so many are, going against the constitution. laura: they re rotting the organization from within the organization. they re eating the organization tfrom within. it is imagine if they treated, by the way, hillary in her interviewea like they treatd trump at the trump tower meeting. remember the hillary interview at the justice department the day before the fourth of july. they didn t take any notes.he panel, thank you for being here tonight.id up next, the man responsible for first bringing comey into government. rudy g
our country had to listen to this 2 1/2 year saga because of one guy. jim comey. he opened the investigation in july of 2016.i put peter strzokf it. the same guy trump should lose 100 million to zero. that s the guy he put in chargeg jim comey is the one that allowed a dossier to get a warrant to spy on the american citizens and jim comey is the guy who leaks sensitive information, broke the rules to the fbi, leaked sensitive information to the new yorkinin times through his friend for what reason? to get the special counsel who entire saga forward based on a false accusation. owes the country for an apology because he put us through this for 2 1/2 years. we know he did it. we know he did it because he was out to get the president based on what happened at the january 6 meeting that you talked about at the trump tower where he talked about the dossier and it says on page 17 of the report they did it to try to get information, trap the president all the while, he was telling the presi
used the adjective, surprised stunned, shocked and disappointment to describe their reactions to learning that comey acted on his own to provide the contents of memo four. remember he said there was one memo, four memos, the memo through richmond, this reporter. those are his colleagues. joining me now, one of comey s former colleagues. what do you make of comey getting on twitter and demanding an apology. he made a very bad day for him much worse. that did not sit well with fbi agents, i can tell you that both current and retired fbi agents. for him to say that he needed an apology is beyond the pale. he broke fbi rules and procedures that he knew he was breaking. he kept official fbi records separate and hidden, were never entered into the case management system until after he was fired he kept them in the drawer, in his house and leaked them to the press
