Was donald trump on. They are ripping comey for how he handled the email probe which they believe tilted the 2016 election. Lanny davis an interview with fox lambing comey as a liar and declaring he should have been fired by loretto lynch. Lynch is disputed comeys contention that he was exercised about her wanting to call the clinton matter a matter. Lynch saying he never raised such an objection to her. It is inexcusable that comey brief donald trump about the dossier and failed to reveal he was paid for by the clinton camp or dnc. And comey clearly operated outside the bounds of the fbi. And theres clinton spokesman nick merrill who savaged his cbs rollout by saying he used the word maybe 37 times tweeting for a lawyer and Law Enforcement professional at the highest level it is a curious tactic when talking to the press, allowing him to avoid being too definitive about anything.

I was listening to your interview with congressman schiff, he said toward it is end when we see the transcript thats news you created i didnt know we were going to see the transcript when we see the transcript of this meeting in which they voted to release the republican memo. Well be able to tell that there were republicans in that meeting who are dragging their feet and forced to do this and arent really with it, but they are voting to do it. And thats what i do not understand. I do not understand why republican members of that committee, who dont think this is a good idea are voting for it.

Care market costs. Bow sides the economy, we are expecting President Trump to ramp up pressure on congress to pass a bill on infrastructure and immigration reform. One topic is expected to be missing from the president s address, and its the one subject everyone seems to be talking about, the russia investigation. Capitol hill is still buzzing about the House Intelligence Committee voting along party lines to release a classified memo that republicans say shows corruption at the fbi and proves Robert Muellers investigation is pacbased on a fraud. Congress mman devin nunes avoid the question about the memo today. Chairman, can we ask you about the release of the memo . Are you glad the committee voted . Talk to the democrats. They talk to you, i dont. Well, i cant comment yet on whats in the gop memo. It is a very misleading spin designed to attack the fbi and the department of justice. It has a lot of flaws in it.

As you all saw yesterdays confirmation hearing for mike pompeo as secretary of state went very well. From his years in the army to his time in the House Intelligence Committee to a tenure as cia director. The secretary has excelled as one of the nations key leaders in Foreign Policy and security. As a result of mike pompeos leadership, america has been safer, more secure and more prosperous. There is no reason why secretary pompeos confirmation process should not be done in a speedy and bipartisan manner. Even the Washington Post Editorial Board hardly cheerleader for this administration published an editorial yesterday with a simple straight to the point headline, confirm mike pompeo. Democrats
