what kind of information that can we presented at a title three court in order to do something as extraordinary to get a warrant to do a telephone tap or something like that to american citizens and for me, at my responsibility as a representative is represent the people that sent me up here in washington, d.c. doing that over sight function, we have to do it even if it is in a political time. >> let me remind viewer that you were an officer and you understand the real world impact of releasing classified information. i guess a lot of people are wondering whether the republican majority in the house of representatives is throwing the intelligence community under the bus. >> i don't believe that at all. i think the intelligence community and federal law enforcement has to be held to a high standard. every t has to be crossed and every i has to be dotted.
