i m not sure that comey is saying it is unclassified makes it unclassified. it seems to me have to get the other party, the white house permission and white house counsel to review it and say we will agree to unclassified are not. listen, this is a fishy situation. the fact that comey is taking this conversation, his account of the conversation or making a public for seemingly political gain. it s not positive about trump, it s negative. now, he is hiding behind the fact that it was 19 to classified document. like you said, whose determination is that? is it a unilateral decision? in 18641 it s leaking on classified document. but i still don t think that if you cannot commit to another person without authorization. that s not specific enough. it wasn t a document generated by his government. we have to give him credit.
an airstrike in somalia. they re targeting the al qaeda affiliate, al shabab. this appears to be the first strike under new white house policy, allowing the u.s. to target extremist in somalia. at least eight terrorists were killed. attorney general jeff sessions is getting ready to testify before the senate intelligence committee on tuesday. to answer questions whether russia interfered with the u.s. election. mr. sessions testimony follows former fbi director, james comey hearing last week. it comes as the house committee tries to figure out whether there are recordings of mr. comey s conversations with president trump. garrett is live from washington to explain. hello. you have to remember they re going to be questions about russia but jeff sessions recused himself from the investigation so he will be limited in what he can say, particularly that it s an ongoing investigation. the reason session wants to testify is to set the record
am too close to james comey, agents of the fbi said they were joined at the hip. here s the thing, one of the issues is you want the public perception and people to have faith in the process. if you have someone with that type of relationship with the star, key witness, the only person other than trump knows about the conversations, if there s the slightest bit of impropriety you have to step down. the last question on obstruction. it says it must be a corrupt act. there are five things identified by the statute as a cropped act, lies, threats, bribes, destroying documents, and altering evidence. comey alleged that none of those things. under the statute how could it be obstruction? i will give you credit with that. i don t think his testimony is there to say there s a clear case of obstruction. it s ambiguous. is not even close is a? there s no way this is obstruction of justice. his testimony is clear.
let people decide. arthel: senator graham is also saying thus far mr. comey s testimony is not damaging to the president yet the president own tweets get in the way of anything getting done in washington. can anything or anyone stop president trump from tweeting? well, apparently not, i mean he restrains himself was restrained, we don t know, during comey s testimony there was there are radio silence in the tweet department but we saw that only lasted a few days. president trump just had to weigh in, and say that in his view comey was not telling the truth that he was a coward, so leaking this information. i don t know. i mean short of just taking away the president s cell phone i know what you are going to do, to stop him undermining his administration getting in the way of miss
response to which we, the public record reveals that the new york times quoting from those memos the day before the reference tweet. that belies mr. comey s excuse for this unauthorized disclosure of privileged information and appears to be entirely retaliatory. it can also be perjury, lying to congress. joining me now is keisha, and misty. misty, comey testified that the memo he wrote about in the conversation with the president was his personal property to do with what he pleases. that is not true, is a? the federal records act and the records management regulations anything you do in the course of your employment is not yours, it is the governments. that is the issue comey is going to have, especially given his testimony. i think that s avenue trump attorneys are going to use because otherwise because it
