Attorneys office arguing on top of the prior report said mccabe had lied under oath at least three times, four in all, and that he more than lacked candor. That he was lying to federal officials. And in so doing, each time do you that is worthy of slamming in jail for five years. Anyway, these are fast moving developments, comey himself addressing them and maybe trying to keep his distance from his former number two. At the same time, he is looking at a book. Market implications of this as well. The dow was down well over triple digits. Clawed back a lot of gains on the development on that bloomberg report of rosenstein. In the meantime, i want to go to Catherine Herridge who is following particularly the Development Concerning the former number two to james comey andy mccabe. What do you got for us . Thanks, neil and good afternoon. A source familiar with the matter confirms to fox news that the Justice Department internal watchdog Inspector General michael e. Horowitz made a criminal
ransacked his offices. that is the situation he is not a part of that or focus of that or target of that particular probe. so, depends on whose story you want to buy here. but it could explain in large part why the president of the united states sort of eased up on the repeated questioning about whether he would fire mr. mueller or mr. rosenstein, eased up on that saying that he has been very, very cooperative as his administration has handing over better than a million documents as the investigation ensues going back to 2016. we will keep you posted on that. in these fast moving developments, we have got washington examiners michael barone. now, michael, do i understand how these things work and you and i can remember the ken starr investigation how that veered way out of control from real estate deals to an intern. if we tore take it face value that the president has
one it gives rosenstein and mueller breathing room. makes it a lot less likely that the president would terminate either of them at least in the near future. it also validates to some extent what the president has been saying when he was saying there was no collusion. we haven t done anything. if mueller has been investigating this for some time now and the president is not a target of the investigation, that tells you something. now, the thing to keep in mind, of course, is that someone s status as a nontarget can always change. as the investigation continues, mueller may gather more evidence. so just because you are not a target now, doesn t mean you will never be. but i think today is definitely a good day for the president based on these reports. neil: it sounds like, rosenstein had with the president was post of the personal attorney s offices getting raided by fbi officials. but just quoting from this bloomberg report, rosenstein apparently brought up the mural probe himself wi
dissent has written about james comey and andy mccabe is incredibly complicated figures and we should end up on their side as people who have dedicated themselves to the institutions that make america great, but that they have made mistakes. i would encourage people to read pieces like this that s nuanced in this that doesn t mean misleading or maybe leaking of information which james comey still maintains was unlady, though there are people who say actually some of it was classified that that means they are completely right or that trump is completely right on this. i agree with erin, trump is going to keep going. i think the point in coming out and saying about the michael cohen raid doesn t mean that trump is a target satisfies those that are saying oh it s new york that s going to take trump down. neil: disputes on that story whether michael cohen raid whether that means he is not a target or this extends to the bob mueller thing as other news organizations say he wasn t a target
