Catherine herridge. Hi, katherine. Thanks, kimberly. The the longstanding congressional rules, the president has five days to voice objections about the memo which technically brings us today or monday counting business dates. That means theres a handful of options for the president. He can declassify the memo as is, declassify the memo with limited reactions, or redraft the memo before the president will consider it again. They have asked all parties including the fbi and Justice Department to review the memo and make the recommendations about what needs to be redacted or blacked out. The version drafted by the ranking democrat on the committee, adam schiff, is twice that long as 15 pages compared to the republican demo. The democrat memo does a deep dive with the sources and methods, we are told that redaction is likely. Christopher steele, the former british spy who research the dossier had a track record with investigators or credit ability. Republicans counter that the fbi cut tie
White house to that effect. That means for folks at home, it will be posted on the house Intelligence Committees web site in fairly short order so that everyone can read it. Based on our reporting and intelligence gathering here at fox news, we understand that there are a number of significant headlines in the memo. What we understand is a senior Law Enforcement official testified during a close classified session to this House Committee that without the dossier, the dossier that was funded by the dnc and Clinton Campaign and compiled by fusion gps, the Opposition Research firm, they would not have been able to obtain at least one surveillance warrant for them member of the trauma campaign. Number two, we also understand that the fbi and Justice Department relied in part on media reporting to credibility of the dossier when they made applications the National Security court for the fisa court for these warrants. What is key is as weve shown to our ongoing reporting here at fox news, th
With the dossier and fisa process, the dossier has nothing to do with the meeting at trump tower or an email sent by cambridge an lit ka. The dossier has nothing to do with George Papadopouloss meeting in Great Britain and nothing to do with obstruction of justice. There will be a russia probe even without a dossier. The interest wasnt oversight. The interest was a political hit job on the f. B. I. The goal here is to undermine the f. B. I. , discredit the f. B. I. , discredit the mueller investigation, do the president as bidding. People are afraid they look really bad. There are personal relationships in there. Marital relationships, who is working at fusion gps that funded the report. Christopher steele has admitted that he was desperate to make sure donald trump didnt get elected. People should see the bias for what it is. John roberts with us now live on the north lawn. Good morning, john. Never seen Kellyanne Conway in a hat before. A new memo from the democrats. One the democrat
Muellers case. They a look at your paycheck. You should see changes from the new tax law. Some folks might be getting short changed for now, some of you. Well explain how to find out if the feds owe you money and goodness, were watching wall street. The dow having its worst day since 2016. The worst week in two years. What is driving it down and how low can it go . Lets get to it. The memo is out. The ones republican have been hyping as jawdropping and led the president to say when you look at it and see it, its a disgrace what is going on in this country. That memo is about one thing, the surveillance of carter page. The former trump adviser who has been on the fbis radar for weirdness since 2013. The russian document or the republican document reads like a press release. Its authors accuse the feds of abusing the authority to spy on a former Trump Campaign adviser in its investigation. The top democrat warns the memo leaves out the full picture and key pieces of evidence. Context mat
More. First time this has happened in a long time. Also means jobs, jobs, jobs. But the deal nearly did not happen. The senate vote delayed for hours after multiple objections from senator rand paul and opposition from budget hawks and some democrats in the house that threatened to derail the deal. Tensions were clearly visible throughout the marathon late night session. Its a compromise in the wrong direction. We should be compromising in the direction of going towards spending only what comes in. The president of the United States supports the bill, i would argue its time to vote. We have always expected that the house and the senate would address the issue of daca and our dreamers. My commitments to working together on an immigration measure that we can make law is a sincere commitment. Minority leader pelosi was trying to hold out for what she was never going to get and part of the negotiation for the deal and a lot of members knew it was the responsible thing to do. Bill thats don
