white house, the president of the united states, they are going to have to take a hard lk at a mirror and ask themselves whether or not they played a role in this. sean: acosta took to twitter to say he s not talking about trump supporters. really question were given his past outlandish anti-trump behavior, should we really believe him? here are a few of his low lights. take a look. what we are witnessing right now is this erosion of our freedoms in terms of covering the president of the united states. that s just a strange and unpresidential thing to do, to be throwing rolls of paper towels and people. the last three news conferences were, all the questions for american news media have handled by conservative press. and i think there is no other way to describe it but the fix is in. let me ask you a question. for people to say jim, do you believe jim, jim. jim. i appreciate your speech. i think we saw the

looking good for jim comey. what is the president implying? what he is saying is that when james comey took those memos that recounted his conversations with the president and gave them to professor dan richman at columbia university, that was an illegal leak, especially since he knew richman was going to give to the press. are notes about a conversation with the president taken by a private citizen, are they classified? they may or may not be. in fact, when the administration, or congress release those, some versions of those memos come out some more blacked out. i think james comey actually is in a pretty vulnerable position. just because something is not marked classified doesn t mean that after the fact it couldn t be retroactively designated classified. i think comey may really have a problem there.
