Gaffe . This guy climbed down a ravine, carried this guy up on his back, under fire. And the general wanted me to pin the silver star on him. I got up there, this is gods truth, he stood at attention, he said sir, i dont want it. Do not put it on me, please, sir, do not do that. David he was wrong in just about every detail in the story and yet somehow hes trying to defend it and now doubling down. We will tell you how he is spinning it. Trish regan primetime begins right now. Good evening everybody. Im david asman in for trish. Our top story, the New York Post dubbing fired fbi director james comey the quote leaker of the free world as President Trump lashes out saying comey got lucky, by escaping prosecution after a blistering Inspector Generals report found he had violated fbi policy and set, quote, a dangerous example for the agencys more than 35,000 employees by leaking memos detailing his private conversations with the president. Joining me now former fbi special agent and former u. S. Attorney. Gentlemen, great to see you. Bud, first to you, you worked with comey. When you hear the Inspector General call his actions dangerous, im wondering if you harken back to any signs of that when you worked with him . Well, you know, and let me say good things about jim comey, talented guy, nice fella, obviously now we know that he was in positions that he was not qualified to be in. You can see a progression if you look back in the history of jim comey, going back to 2004, when he had a conflict with the white house over a provision in the counterterrorism program. In the 2007 hearing, he engineers away it is not a hearing about that, it has nothing to do with that, but he engineers a way to tell that story in a long dramatic way. Guess who is the hero in that story . Jim comey. In that same hearing he reads from an email that he got where he replied to another u. S. Attorney. The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. Well, he gave that email to the committee to ask him about it. Jims been promoting himself as this paragon of virtue for his whole career, but it finally blew up in his face. David john, when you were at the fbi, did you hear any reports on comey that would indicate to you at that time that he was dangerous . I wouldnt use the word dangerous, but i certainly had the opportunity to work directly with director comey, and i had seen him in action. I would agree with my colleague, that the fact is that director comey seemed to be interested in director comey. The fact that he goes out on twitter and says that he deserves an apology. Director comey wants an apology. Im sorry you were director of the fbi. Its not been good for anybody. David yeah, well, hes also essentially denying he was a leaker when he admitted he was a leaker. Thats the subject of the ig report is about how he leaked information that was not his own to leak. Bud for two years now, the media has been painting this guy as a hero. Im wondering how they try to justify the ig report with their heroic presentation of him for more than two years. Its easy. He was standing up to a president that they dont like. I may be aging myself here. You remember the movie the cane mutiny with humphrey bogart. The lesson in leadership in that movie is not that humphrey had some issues or he was a bad captain, it was that the Fred Mcmurray character, love Fred Mcmurray, but lieutenant tom keeper was arrogant enough to organize basically a mutiny instead of supporting their captain, and the moral was and jose pereira says at the end of the movie you dont support your captain because you like the way he cuts his hair. Parts his hair, pardon me. You support the captain because hes got the job, and without him you are no good. Thats where jim comey was. David john, that leads to a question whether this whole thing was an attempt to get trump right from the very beginning, that is, russia wasnt the subject as much as it was donald trump, keeping him out of the white house, and the first place once he was elected getting him out of the white house. That was the prime goal of this group in the fbi, whether youre talking from the top comey or going down the line to mccabe and then peter strzok. Well, it appears that way, and it obviously is a lack of leadership. The good news for the public is the agents in the fbi werent brought into the fbi the way james comey was. Agents go through a vetting process, and they want to serve their country. They forfeit high salaries to work for the fbi and protect the public. Jim comey did a lot of damage. Fortunately we still have the men and women of the fbi that do the right thing every day. He could have learned from them. David speaking of mccabe, and i just want to put up a sound bite for you guys, something the president mentioned Andrew Mccabe today in his press conference before he went to camp david. Let me play that and get your reaction. Go ahead. Hes a bad guy, i can tell you that. Hes a bad guy. I think hes a sick guy personally, but i cant get into that with Andrew Mccabe, but Andrew Mccabe was a bad guy. David one thing that would make him a bad guy, bud, is the fact that if he knew the information he had was bogus, with which he was trying to get trump, that is, before finding any evidence against trump, he manufactured it or had somebody else manufacture it, like mr. Steele with the trump dossier, do you believe that mccabe and strzok and possibly even comey knew for a fact that the information they were using against donald trump was bogus . I havent personally seen evidence that they would intentionally did that, but what they did do was decide that they were superior to donald trump. D they decided they didnt like donald trump. They decided they wanted to believe those allegations and went into the investigation wanting to believe the allegations. As john can tell you, thats not how an investigator goes into an investigation. David john, theres been a besmirching of the fbi from the top guys comey, mccabe and peter strzok. How long is it going to take for the fbi to remove this stain . Its going to take a while, and unfortunately it shouldnt because those folks are gone t and the men and women at fbi are here. What director comey has done that seems that everyones missing, the American People are not being well served by not having faith in the fbi. David absolutely. We need the publics help. Director comey should be ashamed of what happened. He should be asking us for an apology, not the other way we shouldnt be apologizing to him. David you know, again, it goes totally against most of the fbi people i have met, believe in the core of their being that you need to just pursue with blind justice the evidence as it leads. You dont plant evidence that you know is phony, and frankly, they did exactly that with the fisa court, and its a disgrace. Hopefully a disgrace that can be removed by their removal. Gentlemen, good to see you both. Have a wonderful labor day weekend. We appreciate it. Coming up, biden doubling down on a war story fabricated pretty much out of thin air. Listen. This guy climbed down the ravine, carried this guy up on his back under fire. And the general wanted me to pin the silver star on him. I got up there and this is the gods truth my word as a biden he stood at attention. I went to pin him. He said i dont want the thing. Dont put it on me, sir, please, sir, do not do that. David you know, there was a little bit of truth in what he said but so much false information that the Washington Post above the fold on their front page had to lead with it today about all of the mistakes at the very least of what biden had said. Biden is literally wondering what was wrong with what he said. Coming up, hear the out of touch sound for yourself. Also tonight incredible video of a reporter almost hit by lightning. Take a look.

David Hurricane Dorian is now a category 3 storm as it churns towards florida, with 10 Million People right in the crosshairs. These floridians are heeding the warnings and are either getting out of town or gathering supplies to hunker down and brave out the storm. Fox correspondent ellison barber is live from north miami, florida, with details. Ellison . Hey, david. You can see some of [inaudible] just behind me, this small gas canister is probably the only one thats left in the store. The larger ones they have run out of those at least twice since we have been here today. People have been coming in and out of this home depot all morning. Over here is where you should have flashlights and rain gear. You can see the vast majority of it is gone and its been gone for quite a while now. There are some voluntary evacuation orders in effect for a few counties in the state of florida but no mandatory evacuations so far. Officials say they are waiting to get some more information, better idea of the potential storm surge that could come with this hurricane and where it will hit before they issue those mandatory evacuation orders. The governor of florida has issued a state of emergency for all 67 counties in the state. He says they issued them for every county because the path of this storm is still fairly uncertain, but Officials Say the intensity of the storm is not. They are warning people that this is going to be a major storm and that they should prepare for it. They say it could hit up to a category 4 plus. A category 4 means winds of 130 and 156 milesanhour. Most of the people we have spoken to today here in north miami say they are going to ride out the storm. They plan to stay at home. Others say they do want to leave but right now they are having a little difficulty figuring out where in the state, which other counties will be the safest. Listen here. This is my first one. Are you nervous . Just a little bit. You know, driving down, seeing all the gas stations full and stuff like that, like this is real. This is the real deal. Im worried, but theres nowhere to go. Im pretty familiar with hurricanes, been around them all my life. This time im going to get ready. Leaving my house and going to my brothers house which is more towards the west. Hoping for the best. Once they talk about it, start going to the stores. Dont wait till the last minute because it gets crazy. Grab whatever you can before they fly off the shelf. A lot of people have been coming in here today to get plywood to board up their stores, their homes. We have seen a lot of businesses boarding up their win dose, doors today Windows Doors today. Plywood seems to be the biggest things people are buying. Other people have come here to buy generators. The generators cost over 600, a huge expense that a lot of people were not planning to have to buy, but they say they are trying to be better prepared for this storm because they know, they believe that it is going to be serious, and right now they just dont know who is going to get hit the hardest or where it is going to come up david and generators require gas. And frankly arent a lot of gas stations running out . Yeah, in miami, were hearing that over 50 of the gas stations are out of fuel. David wow. We have seen lines and alliance. Lines and lines. Some near this store where they put the tape around it saying they are out. The governor, ron desantis says they do have gas, the issue is getting it to these places if those mandatory evacuation orders do come into effect, though, that gas is going to be needed a lot sooner. They are trying to get it in now. In miami, upwards 50 percent to 60 percent of gas stations are running out of fuel. David im hearing the same in palm beach as well. Many are fearing the very worst of dorian as the hurricane not only supposed to continue to intensify but its pace is slowing and that could mean prolonged destruction with weather damage, all kinds of weather damage. Fox meteorologist adam klotz is in our Weather Center with more. Adam . Adam hey, there, david, we got an update at 8 00 p. M. , and were seeing continued intensification. Now winds getting up to 125 miles an hour, that is 6 milesanhour shy of turning this into a category 4 hurricane. Were likely going to head that way before it is all said and done. You see a very defined eyewall which also leads to letting me know this is a strong storm. The winds are gusting up to 140 milesanhour. Its moving off towards the north and to the west at about 10 milesanhour, currently. Still hanging on just barely to a category 3 storm. We think it will eventually climb up to a category 4 storm before running over the bahamas. Thats getting into sunday. You run into monday and tuesday before you start to run up right along the coastline. And then all of the models suggest once you get near the coast, this is going to turn to the north and then shoot up eventually weakening as it does so, but i want to highlight just how wide of an area they are is. There is a lot of uncertainty still in this storms path. In general we know it is going to track off towards the west from where it currently sits until it hits the bahamas. By the time you get there on sunday, there is a lot of questions, a lot of uncertainty, will it turn up and run up the east coast of florida, the middle . It may work its way into the gulf of mexico. Im going to leave you with the final spaghetti plots and just show you all the indecision here. There are a lot of places. Theres even models suggesting it doesnt make to the coast, just runs up the east coast and drops heavy rains and winds. Theres still some questions with this. David unbelievable, adam thank you very much. Netflix announcing it is producing a series inspired by Hilary Clintons president ial run.
