shannon: congressman, he talked about that maybe they need to be testifying together to the conflict and find out what the truth is. i do think we got a conflict between whites mr. simpson said to the house intelligence committee when he said he didn t talk to anyone at doj are fbi and what mr. ohr has conveyed in the sum of the emails that we are to get a chance to look at and some of the things that were said today. there was a definite conflict their prey that underscores why we need to have glenn simpson if the judiciary committee in a deposition like we had mr. ohr today. shannon: congressman isa characterized bruce ohr as having in poor memory rate wa? there were times where he seemed to say that he can t recall, don t rightly know when that happened, the exact time frame, but look, you got to come back to the basics here. all of these key people at the fbi who ran the clinton investigation and people that justice department to also then launched and ran russia
know why fbi agent peter strzok still has a job at the bureau. reporter: that s right, jon. republicans want to know exactly what fbi agent peter strzok meant when he said, quote, we ll stop it, referring to trump winning the 2016 election. in newly-release toed texts between strzok and lisa page, they discussed the possibility of trump winning. here s a text from august 2016 that s just been released. page says trump meaning he, trump is not ever going to become president, right? right? and strzok says, no, no, he s not. we ll stop it. that s raising some questions among lawmakers. he s the key player. he s the central figure throughout this entire narrative, ran the clinton investigation, was the lead investigator on the russia investigation. he s the central character, and i think those sequence of text messages are important. remember, peter strzok opens the russian investigation on july 31st.
