trying not to get hit. they are stonewalling reporters day after day. now the justice were dumb department is blocking the intelligence committee from accessing the documents found at both president biden s home and former president trumps properties. lawmakers from both sides of the aisle are going after that move. and they are not they are no warning, rather they will stop at nothing to get their hands on those documents so they can do their jobs properly. you know, investigate, watch. the members of congress have an absolute right to this information so we can make an informed judgment that the risk if and eight this document imposed by not being properly handled. how can we judge and to see if it is accurate or if there mitigation efforts are sufficient if we don t know what it is where the materials that were exposed potentially as? we are left in limbo until somehow a special counsel designates it is okay for us to get briefed. is not going to stand. harris :
tit for tat because this is responding to adam schiff s lies and his inability to be trusted in an intelligence position, why is it not simply responding to his lack of character in that way rather than playing upon game for optics? sean: would come up, kevin mccarthy is saying is right he is an intelligence risk we can t have them on this committee. we can t play by a separate set of rules where democrats are taking republicans off committees republicans get power and they say well, hold on a second, that s not nice, we will let all democrats serve on committees and we won t take them off. you have to play by the same rules. if democrats go in the mud, i don t like it, but yet to follow them or you can t win. you will lose. that was my point on that. but mccarthy is right on intelligence with schiff and swallsend. emily: i think ames feel relief when this was made public at this point thank goodness speaker mccarthy made good on that.
requests within i believe 30 days so immediately once you request that you get a form response. that form response always says okay, fine, we are on it, we may or may not find it, it may or may not be relevant and that is when the stonewalling begins. it can be after that moment which is when they are complying with the law but that takes up two years, frankly. we have seen years for good working people that are waiting for foyer documents. harris : wouldn t that be conveyed and if you re thought was to run for president? [laughter] dagen: the it is not right versus left it s not republican versus democrat s people in powr versus eveready else. this is something national review and jim gertie have talked about and i talked about with sean on our brand-new show the bottom line we will talk about that as well. by bill clinton s former national security advisor sandy berger who took documents out of the archives including those in his socks, he noticed punishments was customer $10,0
compromised. i don t see any evidence andy mccarthy said they have done it with respect to biden, but they screamed and yelled, my words, hollered to high heavens about trump. they went to court, justice did, to demand access to the documents for trump to do a damage assessment. and they haven t done charcoal apparently with the biden documents. why not? harris : that is really critical. out of all the documents, and we do know they have 1,850 boxes. we don t know classifieds are among them but they belong to joe biden at the university of delaware. you know there is so much more out there just in that location that they could go search. but when you look at what we know about the classified documents, and we don t know a lot, it does strike me that we know this. we know that some of them were top-secret from that first batch found at the penn biden center. because it he got paid almost a million put his name on that. that s where he sent his personal attorney s first to get
somehow a special counsel designates it is okay for us to get briefed. is not going to stand. harris : is this how it normally goes, sean? are republicans looking for an exception or to get back to how it is supposed to go? sean: they try to get back how it supposed to go but you can see the way justice is treating the senate specifically the senate bear lake you don t matter, you can t see these documents, sit down and shut up and we will give them to you when we think you re ready for them. that is because the congress for decades has ceded more power and authority to the executive branch. and a second they can reclaim that and say listen, you will give them to us. harris : how to do that? sean: they will say if he don t give it to us we will slash your budget. we have the right to know what went wrong so if there is a problem we can legislate and fix it. if there is a many problem we can send more money to it if they don t know they can t fix the problems and they are the he
