HE WATCHING
"OUTNUMBERED OVERTIME" NOW, AND
HARRIS FAULKNER.
FALL OUT NOW FROM THAT
DEVELOPMENT AFTER
ATTORNEY GENERAL BILL BARR
ANNOUNCED HE DOES NOT EXPECT A
CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION INTO
OBAMA OR BIDEN.
AS THE JOHN DURHAM PROBE INTO
THE ORIGINS OF THE RUSSIA
INVESTIGATION CONTINUES.
THE PRESIDENT IS NOW WEIGHING
IN.
WATCH.
>> I THINK OBAMA AND BIDEN KNEW
ABOUT IT.
THEY WERE PARTICIPANTS.
I’M A LITTLE SURPRISED BY THAT
STATEMENT.
IF IT WAS ME, I GUARANTEE THEY’D
BE GOING AFTER ME.
IN HIS CASE, THEY’RE NOT.
SO I THINK IT’S JUST A
CONTINUATION OF A DOUBLE
STANDARD.
I’M SURPRISED BY IT.
I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT THEY WERE
INVOLVED IN THIS HOAX, ONE OF
THE WORST THINGS EVER TO BEFALL
THIS COUNTRY.
>> Harris: MEANWHILE, SENATE
JUDICIARY CHAIR LINDSEY GRAHAM
PLANS A VOTE NEXT MONTH TO
SUBPOENA DOZENS OF FORMER OBAMA
INTELLIGENCE OFFICIALS.
LOOK AT THE LIST.
INCLUDES JAMES COMEY,
ANDREW MCCABE, AMONG OTHERS.
HOWEVER, DEMOCRATS ARE ACCUSING
SENATOR GRAHAM OF TRYING TO
DISTORT THAT THEY SAY REALLY
HAPPENED IN 2016.
>> HIS COMMITTEE WILL SOON
CONSIDER SUBPOENAS RELATED TO
ANOTHER CONSPIRACY THEORY PLUS
RAY PRESIDENT TRUMP, THIS TIME
TO TRY AND REWRITE THE HISTORY
OF RUSSIAN INTERFERENCE IN THE
2020 ELECTION TO MATCH THE
FANTASY IN PRESIDENT TRUMP’S
HEAD.
THAT WILD CONSPIRACY THEORY
AIMED AT SOMEHOW
SMEARING THE
FINE REPUTATION THAT
PRESIDENT OBAMA HAS WELL
DESERVED.
>> Harris: THE POWER PANEL NOW
TO START THE SHOW.
JASON CHAFFETZ, FORMER HOUSE
OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN.
GUY MO ELLEITHEE
, BOTH ARE "OUTNUMBERED."
, BOTH ARE "OUTNUMBERED."
JASON, I’M GOING TO START WITH
YOU.
THE PRESIDENT SAYING THAT HE IS
SURPRISED THAT THE DOJ IS NOT
GOING TO LOOK INTO BIDEN AND
FORMER
PRESIDENT OBAMA.
THAT SEEMS LIKE AN INTERESTING
WORD TO USE.
I WOULD IMAGINE HE MIGHT FEEL A
LITTLE STRONGER THAN THAT,
BECAUSE IT LOOKED AT ONE TIME
LIKE AG BARR MIGHT DO THAT.
WHAT CHANGED?
>> Jason: I THINK THE PRESENT
IS FRUSTRATED.
I ASSUME SURPRISED.
THAT’S WHAT HE SAID.
I’VE GOT TO TELL YOU, I THINK
ATTORNEY GENERAL BARR HAS JUST
DECIDED TO FOLLOW THE FACTS AND
THE EVIDENCE.
I THINK THE PEOPLE THAT
LINDSEY GRAHAM WANTS TO CALL
BEFORE THE COMMITTEE IS THE
ABILITY OF THE COUNTRY AND THE
CONGRESS TO PURSUE THE FACTS AND
LET THOSE LEAD US TO WHERE THEY
MIGHT.
I SEE DEMOCRATS TRYING TO SAY,
"HEY, WE DON’T NEED -- NOTHING
TO SEE HERE, LET’S JUST MOVE
ALONG," INSTEAD OF MASHING THAT
WITH THE CURIOSITY AND SAYING,
"LET’S HAVE ALL THOSE FACTS OUT
WHERE THE TRUTH LEADS US."
THAT’S WHERE I SEE THE
ATTORNEY GENERAL GOING.
THAT’S WHERE I SEE THE CONGRESS
GOING.
I THINK THAT’S THE APPROPRIATE
PATH TO FOLLOW.
>> Harris: YOU KNOW, MO,
PARTICULARLY WITH JAMES COMEY,
BECAUSE WE KNOW THE PROBLEMATIC
RELATIONSHIP EVEN HE HAD WITH
HILLARY CLINTON, THAT CENTER
RIGHT BEFORE THE ELECTION WHEN
HE WAS SAYING -- WEIGHING IN ON
SOME OF THE CHARGES AGAINST HER,
SOME OF THE THINGS THEY WERE
LOOKING AT LEGALLY AGAINST HER.
WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON ALL OF THIS
IN TERMS OF WHAT’S COMING UP IN
JUNE AND WHO WE ARE GOING TO
HEAR FROM?
>> Mo: YEAH, I DON’T KNOW WHO
ACTUALLY HEAR FROM.
WHAT IS INTERESTING TO ME IS
THAT THIS IS AN ATTORNEY GENERAL
WHO HAS HAD NO PROBLEM CARRYING
THE PRESIDENT’S POLITICAL WATER
UP UNTIL NOW.
EVEN HE IS SPECULATING THAT
THERE ISN’T ANYTHING CRIMINAL TO
INVESTIGATE HERE, OR THAT THEY
WON’T AT LEAST BE CRIMINAL
PROCEEDINGS.
THAT MAKES SENSE, BECAUSE THERE
WAS NOTHING CRIMINAL DONE HERE.
THAT THIS WHOLE UNMASKING THING
REALLY JUST SEEMS TO ME TO BE
OVERBLOWN TYPE DESIGNED TO KIND
OF DISTRACTS FROM A WHOLE HOST
OF OTHER THINGS.
overblown ype designed to kind
BECAUSE, SIMPLY PUT, THERE WAS
BECAUSE, SIMPLY PUT, THERE WAS
AN INVESTIGATION GOING ON ABOUT
RUSSIAN INTERFERENCE IN THE
ELECTION, PLAIN AND SIMPLE,
WHICH EVERYBODY AGREES HAPPENED.
THAT THERE WAS SOME LEVEL OF
RUSSIAN INTERFERENCE IN THE
ELECTION.
WHEN AN AMERICAN CITIZEN,
UNNAMED AND INTELLIGENCE
REPORTS, WAS SEEN SPEAKING TO
THE RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR, A BUNCH
OF FOLKS IN THE GOVERNMENT SAID,
"WAIT, HOLD ON, WHO IS THAT?"
THAT’S WHAT UNMASKING IS.
THERE IS NOTHING NEFARIOUS ABOUT
THAT.
SOMEHOW IT’S TURNED INTO THIS
GRAND CONSPIRACY.
>> Harris: I GET ALL OF THAT,
BUT THAT’S NOT THE QUESTION OF
ILLEGALITY HERE.
IT’S THE LEAKING.
JASON?
>> Jason: IT IS THE LEAKING.
THAT IS AGAINST THE LAW.
YOU HAVE ONE PERSON DOING
UNMASKING, THE MORNING
DONALD TRUMP WAS ACTUALLY GOING
INTO HIS INAUGURATION.
YOU HAVE SOME AT THE POWERS, WHO
IS RUNNING THE UNITED NATIONS,
SAYING, "I KNOW ALL THESE THINGS
HAPPEN UNDER MY NAME, BUT I
DIDN’T ASK FOR THEM."
AREN’T YOU CURIOUS TO FIGURE OUT
WHO’S ABUSING THE SYSTEM AND
VIOLATING SOMEBODY’S FOURTH
AMENDMENT RIGHTS?
THERE IS NO CURIOSITY?
I’M SURE IF THIS WAS DONE ON THE
DEMOCRATS, OH, "NOTHING TO SEE
HERE, LET’S KEEP GOING ON."
IT’S ONE OF THE MOST SERIOUS
ABUSES OF POWER WE’VE EVER SEEN.
WE HAVE MORE THAN FIVE PAGES
FROM THE INSPECTOR GENERAL
TALKING ABOUT HOW CORRUPT THAT
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE WAS, AND
YOU THINK WE SHOULD JUST SET IT
ASIDE, AND SCHUMER THINKS WE
SHOULD NOT LOOK HERE?
THAT IS RIDICULOUS.
>> Harris: MO REAL QUICK, AND
WILL MOVE ON.
>> Mo: THE GREATER ABUSE OF
POWER WAS THAT MICHAEL FLYNN TO
THE FBI, PLED GUILTY.
JASON, PLEASE STOP INTERRUPTING.
OKAY?
>> Jason: NO, NO.
>> Mo: THAT WAS AN ABUSE OF
POWER.
HE PLEADED GUILTY TO IT.
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
ATTORNEY GENERAL WENT AGAINST
HIS OWN PROSECUTORS ON THAT IN A
VERY POLITICAL MOVE.
WHAT THIS WHOLE THING IS WRAPPED
AROUND, THIS WHOLE MATTER OF
UNMASKING, IS NOT AN ABUSE OF
POWER.
IN FACT, IF IT WAS, WE OUGHT TO
BE LOOKING INTO THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION, WHICH HAS RAMPED
UP THE NUMBER OF UNMASKINGS.
THAT IS NOT SPIN, THAT’S DATA.
THERE ARE FACTS THAT THERE ARE
MORE UNMASKINGS BEING DONE BY
THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION THEN
THERE WAS BY OBAMA’S.
>> Harris: BUT WE CAN AGREE
UNMASKING IS NOT THE CRIME, IT’S
A POTENTIAL LEAKING OF
INFORMATION.
IT’LL BE INTERESTING TO HEAR
FROM THE FORMER DIRECTOR OF THE
FBI, AS THEY TALK WITH HIM IN
JUNE IN THE SENATE.
WE’LL MOVE ONTO THIS.
HOUSE DEMOCRATS HAVE JUST TOLD
THE U.S. SUPREME COURT THAT THEY
ARE IN THE MIDST OF AN ONGOING
IMPEACHMENT.
A NEW IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY, AS
THEY SEEK TO OBTAIN REDACTED
GRAND JURY MATERIAL FROM THE
MUELLER INVESTIGATION.
AND PRESIDENT TRUMP, AGAIN,
RIPPED THE DEMOCRATS’ FIRST
IMPEACHMENT EFFORT, REMINDING
THEM OF THE FAILURE IN THE
SENATE.
WATCH.
>> IT WAS A FAKE WHISTLE-BLOWER,
AND IT WAS A PHONY, DISGRACEFUL
PERIOD OF TIME, AND WE CAME OUT
WELL.
YOU KNOW I BECAME AT WELL?
BECAUSE EVERYONE RECOGNIZED FOR
WHAT IT WAS.
AS THE POLITICAL WITCH HUNT.
THE REPUBLICANS ARE SO UNIFIED.
NOT BECAUSE THEY LIKED ME, BUT
BECAUSE THEY KNEW THIS WAS A
HORRIBLE THING THAT HAPPENED.
>> Harris: BOY, I’VE GOT TO
TELL YOU, THE HOUSE COULD HAVE
PRESSED FOR THE INFORMATION IN
THE MUELLER REPORT THAT WAS
GRAND JURY, THAT WAS PROTECTED
AT THE TIME.
THEY COULD HAVE PRESSED FOR
THAT, BUT THEY DIDN’T.
NOW WE HAVE A WHOLE NEW ENTREE
OF THIS.
MO, IS THE STRATEGIC?
THAT’S MY FIRST QUESTION FOR
YOU.
I WILL FEATHER THIS INCOME TOO.
DEMOCRATS LOST IN THE SENATE THE
FIRST TIME.
DO THEY WANT TO REMIND THE
AMERICAN VOTERS OF THAT FAILURE
SO CLOSE TO AN ELECTION?
>> Mo: I THINK WHAT YOU ARE
SEEING HERE ARE DEMOCRATS IN THE
HOUSE REACTING TO VERY NEW
INFORMATION, VERY NEW
DEVELOPMENTS, WITH, AS WE WERE
REFERENCING IN THE LAST TOPIC,
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S DECISION
IN THE FLYNN CASE, THE WAY THEY
ARE HANDLING THE ROGER STONE
CASE, AND DEMOCRATS NOW SAYING,
"OKAY," AS JASON JUST SAID, "IT
IS THE ROLE OF CONGRESS TO
CONDUCT OVERSIGHT AND SEE WHERE
THE FACTS TAKE THEM."
NOW TRYING TO SEE IF THERE’S ANY
SORT OF CONNECTION HERE BETWEEN
THIS DECISION, BEING AN ABUSE OF
POWER.
I DON’T THINK THERE’S A LOT OF
PEOPLE ITCHING TO JUMP INTO
IMPEACHMENT.
I DON’T THINK THERE WERE PEOPLE
ITCHING TO JUMP INTO IT LAST
TIME.
>> Harris: WELL, I DON’T KNOW.
WHEN YOU SAY THAT WORD AROUND
VOTERS, THEY THINK TWO THINGS.
I DON’T KNOW ABOUT THEM WANTING
TO THINK ABOUT THIS IN A
PANDEMIC.
AMERICAN TAXPAYER DOLLARS THAT
YIELDED SOMETHING THAT DIDN’T
HAPPEN FOR DEMOCRATS IN THE
SENATE.
I’M GOING TO GO TO JASON ON
THIS.
IN FACT, THERE IS A PANDEMIC
GOING ON, AND CAN THEY WALK AND
CHEW GUM AT THE SAME TIME?
IF THEY CAN’T, CAN WE JUST
CHOOSE THE CRISIS?
JASON?
>> Jason: THEY CAN’T SEEM TO
WALK AND CHEW GUM.
THEY’RE NOT EVEN IN SESSION
THERE IN THE HOUSE OF
REPRESENTATIVES, NOT EVEN
SCHEDULED TO COME BACK UNTIL
JULY 22ND.
LET’S REMEMBER THAT THE
INSPECTOR GENERAL DID ALL KINDS
OF REPORTS.
DO YOU SEE JERRY NADLER OR
CHAIRMAN MALONEY CALLING THESE
PEOPLE BEFORE CONGRESS TO GO
FIGURE OUT THE FACTS ON WHAT
INSPECTOR GENERAL HOROWITZ
FOUND?
NO!
THEY DIDN’T EVEN INVITE THEM UP,
AND THEY ARE IN THE MAJORITY.
DON’T TRY TO PRETEND, MO, THAT
THE DEMOCRATS ARE REALLY CURIOUS
ABOUT THE SORT OF STUFF.
THEY HAVE TOOLS, BUT THEY DON’T
WANT TO HEAR THE TRUTH.
ON THE INSPECTOR GENERAL PUT OUT
REPORTS, THEY WON’T EVEN INVITE
HIM UP TO PRESENT THAT.
>> Mo: OF THE PRESENT HAS BEEN
>> Mo: THE PRESIDENT HAS BEEN
>> Mo: THE PRESIDENT HAS BEEN
IT FIRING INSPECTOR GENERAL’S
LEFT AND RIGHT.
THEY MADE CURIOUS DECISIONS WHEN
HE CAME TO FLYNN AND TO STONE.
