willing to give information to a whistleblower? you know, i don t know the answer to who that would be. i think the big thing here is the whistleblower s complaint doesn t matter. we have the transcript. the white house has been fully transparent in this process. and the complaint doesn t matter. it is second hand information which we don t need because we have firsthand information in the transcript that the white house has voluntaryly released. i don t think there is anything that the whistleblower can tell us that isn t in that. i think the real trouble there is bill: how many in your opinion were willing to turn him in? the reporting suggests half a dozen people gave this whistleblower information. does that sound right, six people? that sounds like a large number that would have access to have been on the call in the first place. every member of the call would report back to this individual. that sounds quite high to me and something that i would be
president there and we re multiple days on in this and we watch the fallout from that whistleblower complaint. how is the white house handling this? i think in the best way that they can. that s fighting back against the hypocrisy and what the real scandal here is. the only corruption in this entire process has to do with the bidens, not the president, not the white house. it is the fact that joe biden was acting inappropriately and making sweetheart deals for his son. that s the corruption in this process. the president shouldn t be getting impeached. he should be celebrated for draining the swamp and following through on another one of his campaign promises. the hypocrisy and the level of fake outrage from the democrats is really astonishing and something hopefully the media and american people will continue to call out as this process play out. bill: we ll see tomorrow closed door hearing, thursday and friday with three different individuals. three specific questions, sarah. who
you agree. they re technically different but if you can dirty up barr and indirectly the investigation and durham through that you kill it s effectiveness. people will say that s just bill barr. that s bill barr doing something he shouldn t be doing. he set this up exactly the way you should set it up. putting a guy like durham in charge of it. all bill barr did was go to some foreign law enforcement officials and said durham, this is my man, can you help him? we would like your help. that s totally appropriate for the top law enforcement official in this country to do. bill: one of the main stories breaking late yesterday afternoon was the president suggesting to the a.g. and the a.g. saying give me an introduction to some of these world leaders so i can further my probe. from the white house lawn on may 24th here is the president. president trump: the attorney general is one of the most respected people in this country.
what i ve done is declassified everything. he can look. and i hope he looks at the u.k. and he hope he looks at australia and i hope he looks at ukraine. i hope he looks at everything because there was a hoax perpetrated on our country. bill: the suggestion is that this is wrong or amiss somehow. do you see anything wrong in what you just heard in that sound bite? not only do i not see anything wrong but the fact that he said it back in may shows that it was not he has been very up front about what he wants barr to do. he misspoke. he didn t declassify all that stuff. he gave bar the authority to declassify if necessary. don t you think that s something that should be investigated when the incumbent political party opens a counter intelligence investigation on the candidate of the opposing party? i think that s a very big step. you don t take a step like that
