20-year ap reporter wrote a long story with sara carter. there was, in fact, surveillance of the trump server. let's get it all out there. the fact this happened and it leaked all over the place for months -- >> but i want to go back to what you said last week when you were asked should the president be taken literally, the press takes him too literally, you said he should be taken seriously. that's essentially the question. should the president be believed? >> i think he should be taken seriously that there was surveillance of the trump campaign and it was leaked. >> but not literally? >> no. i mean literally means there were people surveilling the trump campaign and leaking the information that they gained -- >> when the president mouth moves, and we understand the definition of his words, should we believe the president understands the definition of the words? that's literally? the words are literally what he means? >> in the tweet, he put the words wiretapping in quotes? . >> i think he only did that in one. >> i don't know why we're parsing punctuation from the president. if

the election, heat stre"h stree street", sara carter reporting -- >> we do not -- we synthesized that for you. not eight minutes for you. but the fact that in the aftermath he tells the british that spicer's comments was unintentional is the reporting that we have. does any of that seem unintentional to you? >> here is the thing i don't understand about what the white house is doing communicationswise. they have access to all kind of primary information, primary sources even just as a newspaper columnist, commentator i wouldn't rely on a commentator as evidence. this may be the position that sean spicer is in. here is the problem for donald trump. he's asking his aides and party to choose between being loyal to the president and the truth. you see paul ryan coming out and saying that he can't support the claims. this is going to impact this presidency. it's make or break time. these first 100 days lay the foundation for whether he will be successful as a president or not. if he doesn't start cleaning this up and start acting in a professional manner more and more members of his party

surveillance administration largely unregulated by wiretapping laws. when sara carter reported, the intelligence gathered in secret, separately the obama administration amended a longstanding executive order allowing information intercepted through fisa warrants to be shared by a wider audience and 16 intelligence offices, it was spread throughout briefings to scores of workers and leaks began to appear in news media organizations often in stories lacking context of how national investigations are actually concluded. fox 3rd, fox chief anchor bret bier said, quote, intelligence surveillance court to monitor communications involving donald trump and several other campaign officials. then they got turned down. then in october, then renewed it and a wiretap at trump tower with some russian banks. surveillance courts get shut down -- >> i want to -- >> jonathan, you can follow up. a judge says no go to monitoring trump tower. they go back in october. >> they get a fisa grant. this is a monitoring of communities that they believe leads to russian leads. the investigation continues and we

. we go on, sara carter reporting, intelligence professionals. it was leaked to a much larger audience then back in february. when it expanded executive order 12333 which loallows employees unfettered access by raw nsa, they allowed to share raw general intelligence communications including those involved in phone calls an e-mails frankly it allows too many people access to the raw data. the u.s. officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity and was not granted to speak on the authority. numerous out lets including "the new york times" reported into mr. trump's advisors, bbc and a multi-agassi working group. on february 14th "the new york times" again refers to phone records and intercepted calls quote them american law enforcement intersection agency intercepted the communications around the same time that russia was trying to disrupt the presidential election by hacking into the democratic committee. the intersection agencies then thought to learn whether the trump campaign was colluding on hacking other efforts, they have seen in recent weeks so far they have seen such cooperati

most powerful operation which are largely unregulated by wiretapping laws. sara carter, start of the new year brought unexpected politicizing intelligence gathered in secret. separately the obama administration amended long-standing executive order allowing information intercepted through fisa warrants or the national security agency shared by wider audience and 16 other government agencies when obama was leaving office. intelligence reserved for handful of intelligence leaders was spread throughout briefings to scores of workers. leaks began to appear in media organizations often stories lacking context how national security investigations are actually concluded. on march 3rd, fox news chief anchor bret baier said following quote, there is a report june 2016, a fisa request by the obama administration, forward intelligence surveillance, monitor communications involving donald trump and several other campaign officials. then they got turned down. then in october, then they were renewed it, startup wiretap of trump tower with computer in russian banks. bayer continues. june fisa reque

fox days after the election, heat street reported, andy mccarthy, sara carter from circa reporting. >> jeff zeleny begins our coverage at the white house. the president seems to be boxed in on this. it is not a small thing when the house speaker, when the chairman of the senate intelligence committee come out, members of his own party and say what he said happened did not happen. >> reporter: he seems to be boxed in by the facts on this. you're right about the republicans. they said, look, this didn't happen. they said that only after they were briefed by fbi and other intelligence officials here. remember nearly two weeks ago, it was the president himself who asked for congress to weigh in on this in the first place. now they are but not in his favor. president trump is even more isolated tonight in his substantiated claim president obama was spying on him at trump tower after saying this to fox news wednesday night -- >> wiretap covers a lot of different things. i think you're going to find some very interesting items coming to the forefront over the next two weeks. >> reporter:

from circa news.com sara carter is with us. what you broke to me is huge. nobody was able to confirm what you guys have, that number onea fisa order was issued, correct? you'rent 100% sure. >> yes a fisa warrant was issued into russian hacking and a separate warrant was issued to investigate the server registered to trump tower and there was absolutely no evidence found during the brief search of the computer server, it yielded no evidence that alarmed the fbi that there was any criminal communication between trump or surrogates or anybody on the trump team with russia. so they shut it down quickly p you asked the question when did hillary know about it? she tweeted about it and slate news magazine also wrote a story about it at the same time.la she talked about these nefarioum connections between trump and russia and his server and harry reid last october made those same claims. remember it was in october when the fbi opened their investigation into the server and closed it. within the month of october because they found nothing. >> sean: sarah, this is amazing. we've been hearing f

exists. he rushes straight, we have now debunked. we have sara carter, john solomon, two will well respectd investigative journalists. yeah, there was a fisa warrant, another warrant, surveillance of trump tower, and they found nothing, not one shred of evidence of collusion with the russians. how many months is the media going to sell it? >> that's what i want to be true. i don't want to find out that the president has engaged in that activity, and i agree that nate silver's point that the media live in a bubble, how can you not say that is true? they all predicted trump was going to lose and he didn't lose. >> sean: indymedia, i didn't predicted -- i'm indymedia, i didn't predict that. i predicted obama would be a failure. >> my question to you is this. do you want us to trust the government as much as you're talking about. if donald trump hired a national security advisor and the media comes to find out that he was being paid as a lobbyist for a foreign country, you really want us not to report that? >> sean: that is legitimate. even trump said, there are going to be stories i d

didn't happen.pa >> sean: the obama administration spied on president trump? sara carter is here to weigh in. >> whether we do it or not -- it will be imploded off the map. >> sean: president trump moves ahead to repeal and replace obamacare. republican saboteurs continue to undermine the president's agenda. monica crowley, geraldo rivera have reaction. "hannity" starts right here, right now. reporting from washington tonight. the alt left propaganda media continues to push this false russian narrative. why?y? that is tonight's opening monologue. we have been reporting since last week, serious journalists have now debunked the fake news narrative about a connection between president trump and russia. the alt left propaganda media, they did not do that.f they did not properly vet obama. they did not look at obama's radical ties because they have his agenda.ct a dereliction of duty that is now bordering on malice and malpractice. by continuing to run around, that actual journalists are reporting is just not true. take a look at some of the worst examples from propagandaru l pr. >> we

sabotaging -- we will have sara carter on laterbo tonight, laura ingraham, sara carter said there was a warrant in octobera and it was not against trump. they were debunked. night after night since november 8th, this false narrative keeps getting reported. this is what they have you believe at nbc tonight. donald trump sold a house to a russian oligarch in 2005. he made a big profit. they knew he would be president in 2016. and somehow he was buying influence way back then just in case he became president. there is something really i twisted and sick that they call themselves a news organization. >> the amazing thing, sean, and jay, these are the same folks that are always rushing to conclude that conservatives and conservative activists are conspiracy theorists and a total nut bags. but i would argue that they are the real fanatics. the american people have moveds on from all of these fake controversies.ri they are trying to figure out okay, am i going to get health care that i can afford? will the country started working again? will government start governing again? the democrats are

the story, sara carter and john solomon. this is pretty blockbuster information. by the way, you are not a member of my right-wing conspiracy, you worked for the ap for 20 years. i doubt i could get a job there. >> probably not. >> sean: probably not? thanks a lot. has anyone else in the media looked into your story, called you about that, asked for background? considering you are well known this industry. >> they haven't and at the end of the day, you are more concerned about the facts and what sort of attention or media attention you get. there are so many things being thrown around washington right now. follow the money, follow the politics. he started to see a partisan political line and a money line. i think both of those things are important to keep looking at. >> sean: sara, has anybody reached out to you? why don't you bring us up to speed on this new development while john gets his earpiece fixed. >> no, no one has reached out to me either. the most important thing isch getting the facts out to the american public. and ensuring we are doing our job and doing our job well. bu

up tonight, and explosive new investigative report from sara carter and john solomon. their reporting suggested a hacker may have been behind the communication between the russian bank and a server connected with the trump tower. we will check in with them and later tonight... >> some of the fake news said i do not think donald trump wants to build a wall. can you imagine if i said we are not going to build a wall? fake news. fake, fake news. >> sean: president trump says a border wall will be built despite what the mainstream media is reporting, lou dobbs will react to that and also tonight... >> i don't remember the last three days because i was so [bleep] up. >> sean: that time of year again, ever wonder what happens when your kids head out for spring break? how dangerous this might be for your children. straight ahead. children. straight ahead. you totanobody's hurt, new car. but there will still be pain. it comes when your insurance company says they'll only pay three-quarters of what it takes to replace it. what are you supposed to do? drive three-quarters of a car? no

"hannity," esiden >> sean: anne coulter, david clarke, geraldo rivera, sara carter is joining us tonight. america could learn from europe's many failures. that's tonight's opening monologue. president trump and chancellor merkel capped off their first visit earlier today by holding a joint press conference. president trump made it very clear where we stand on protecting this country. watch this. >> our two countries must continue to work together to protect our people from radical islamic terrorism. and to defeat isis. i applaud chancellor merkel for germany's contributions both civilian and military as a counter-isis coalition member. we also recognize immigration security is national security. we must protect our citizens from those who seek to spread terrorism, extremism and violence inside our borders. immigration is a privilege, not a right. and the safety of our citizens must always come first. >> sean: we've been covering in-depth on this show how president trump promised to do everything within his power to stop radical islamic terrorists from entering this country and pu

like communication exists between the president and moscow. sara carter joins us now. i said this to you last night, this is becoming more like a new addition of homeland every single day with these new developments. what they are saying on the russian side of things it is they've able to trace back -- there is someone they think within the united states that is faking a relationship -- a computer relationship between that bank and at the trump. do we know if this was the same thing investigated in october? >> they suspect it was. that's very interesting because even back in october, they were very concerned about this. although there was no data going between the two servers, there were still concerns that it happened. what they did was they basically intercepted -- they put something inside their computer server and order to track and trace if it happened again. it happened again in february and march 11th and march 13th. in that point, alpha bank -- there specialists were able to trace it and that's where they d information which we were able to view as well. we were able to see t

of israel, benjamin netanyahu. what a bunch of hypocrites. here with reaction, sara carter. i said you go, sara you go, john. everything you have been telling our audience for two weeks was validated today. let's start there. >> yeah, it's true. we talked about the fact that the fbi had conducted in an original investigation located outside of trump tower and that they found no evidence of criminality at all in the server. the pings that were reported between his server and the russian bank. we also talked about the fisa. there was an overall investigation into russian hacking. this proved to be true. i want to bring up something you just talked about. there's also no evidence according to our sources of any collusion between trump or his teams and to russia the russian hacking.or we have seen that from senator grassley, chairman nunes, from james clapper, numerous sources and people who supported hillary clinton. who all have said there is no evidence to date to support that but that was one of the things not answered at the hearing. >> sean: the destroy trump media, the fbi would

program, john solomon and sara carter are both saying there was surveillance of the server at trump tower there was a fisa b warrant. while he is willing to admit when investigation is going on he will not admit another in terms of leaking he says it's common practice, we do not acknowledge that. is that troubling to you? >> that is why we have an intelligence community investigation. the point is the president asked for this and we already had investigation going on before all of this. that is why chairman nunes andnd his ranking members are going to see to the bottom of this and get through everything all russia related. i was busy doing my job so i did not watch the hearing. i don't think we learnedoi anything new here and it only confirmed what we have been saying all along. at the end of the day we will get to the bottom of all of the stuff. the question you just raised, with the intelligence committee -- the investigation that's ongoing. >> sean: back to health care, is the freedom caucus on board? earlier today, they said 40 members were not going to vote for the bill and ran

much what sara carter and john solomon have been telling us for the past two weeks on this show. national security and intelligence agencies have been investigating russian attempts to in influence the election. we've been talking about it for two straight weeks. james clapper said russian meddling did not have an impact on vote tallies. watch this. >> we cannot say they did not change any vote tallies or anything of that sort. we had no way of gauging the impact that certainly the intelligence community cannot gauge the impact that it had on choices the electorate made. >> sean: no impact on vote tallies and the fbi director testifying, said that russia did not influence the vote tallies. in key swing states. this is done today. >> do you have any evidence that russian cyber actors changed vote tallies in the state of michigan question mike >> i do not but we are not a domestic organization, we are probably ne best organization to provide a more complete answer? >> how about the state of pennsylvania? >> no, sir. >> wisconsin? florida? the state of north carolina? the state of

everything with john solomon and sara carter for two weeks. you heard my opening monologue, what is your reaction? >> i thought today showed the best contrast of all. you have an eight month long investigation on russia with nothing to show for it and donald trump in office with a little less than two months with so much to show for it. intrusive, invasive, expansive entitlement we've had -- being repealed and replaced. negotiating, listening, improving and making progress on the bill with leaders in the house and senate. of course our governors who control the medicaid dollars. the contrast is really remarkable. i love the way president trump defied all the negative noise inside the beltway by going to kentucky and putting a very positive optimistic message out there for all to see. the positive optimistic message he delivered in louisville tonight really matches the market, the stock market, consumer confidence, a 12 year high among homebuilders. he matches a lot of the mood of this country that is not being reflected or covered because it is negative, negative. the unmasking of an ame

administration know? what did obama know? when did they know what? newt gingrich and sara carter will react in just a few minutes. we also turn our attention tonight to a big developing story.ah as of this moment, the gop's's legislation to repeal and replace obamacare scheduled for a vote tomorrow does not have the number of votes needed to pass on that crucial vote. desperation now sitting in, what can the g.o.p. do to salvage the bill? white house sources are telling us and the fox news channel that the administration is now close to a deal and freedom caucus c chairman mark meadows confirmed to me and said that they're not there yet but he's extremely optimistic, he will join us later in the program. also freedom caucus member congressman dave pratt.ro we turn our attention to our top story tonight, once again terror, this time in london. earlier today, the suspect whoin police say was motivated by terrorism overseas use the vehicles to mow down pedestrians on the westminster bridge in london, after he exited the car the suspect fatally stabbed a police officer outside of parliament before

, because we know that this happened november, december, january for sure. sara carter think some of it started before the election. really serious stuff if you care about the fourth amendment, before the moment, other constitutional amendments. what is your reaction? >> sean, that's correct. i was aware during obviously the campaign, but i was also the deputy -- so i will as they are all the way through inauguration. and it is a little bit disconcerting that you could find yourself caught up in this. and it's one thing to talk about the politics of it for the investigation, but when it's -- somebody ask you a question about you, that makes it a little bit different. so it's very disconcerting. i've got to tell you. i'm troubled that mike flint's name is unmasked, i'm troubleded by this entire episode of what weer are going through. because there are deep sources within our government that wanted to betray our national security and really try to do harmmp to president trump's administration. >> sean: tom, under the auspices of trying to protect america and a surveilled foreign intellige

big story tonight. - from this program, sara carter and john solomon from circa news had been doing excellent reporting on the story. an fbi investigation into aa server that was being utilized by trump tower. that is where the campaign was. they also discovered a fisa warrant that alloweded federal officials to capture trump team communications. prior to the president taking office, all this occurred. now they have another bombshell report. it shows high-ranking officials with direct access to president obama may have had access to unmasked federal surveillance of the trump transition and their team members. and may have briefed president obama himself about the information they were collecting on then president-elect trump, my predictions is more information will be coming available and soon we are going to answer these important questions. joining us now with their explosive report from circa news, sara carter and john solomon. thank you for making a rare appearance. sara has been doing all the heavy lifting on the show. this is very important.s how is it that evelyn farkas who l

russia.ea what evelyn farkas saying here -- she is admitting what we have been saying, what sara carter and john solomon and james rosen had all been saying. surveillance took place. take a watch. >> it was aimed at telling the hill people get as much information as you can. as much intelligence as it can before president obama leaves the administration because i had a fear that somehow that information would disappear with the senior people. >> sean: that's the intelligence? that you want your friends on capitol hill to get? is that the information she's talking about? next, she admits there was unmasking. that should not happen. >> the trump folks if they found out how we knew what we knew about their staff, the trump staff dealing with russia they would try to deal with those sources and methods. we would no longer have access to that intelligence. >> sean: oh, intelligence, unmasking, surveillance. intelligence leaking was taking place and by the way, in case some of you people don't know, that could very well be a felony. take a look. >> i became very worried because not enough was com

questions. here now is national security correspondent sara carter, do i have all that right?ow is that a good summary? >> it was a great summary, one a little change that just happened right before i came on your show. what was really interesting, john and i spoke to a very senior u.s. official, they clarified this. they said that there was a fisa warrant in october that was looking at the overall russian hacking investigation but that the fbi when they monitored the server as trump tower, it was located away from trump tower, it wasn't under the pfizer, they did normal strategic fbi investigations that didn't require the fisa. they went into the server but they did not use the fisa. in october. at the exact same time as this investigation. >> sean: two instances now of spying. >> two instances, this is completely new evidence. we all thought, everybody had reported that the server is inside trump tower, it was not located inside trumpht tower. >> sean: was the second issued warrant inside trump tower? >> that's what we don't know it now that opens up a whole slew of questions. what we d

not may be as told bd john solomon and his partner sara carter yesterday, there is no evidence, even though there was a fisa warrant of anyjo russian collusion, could that be an internal intelligence lake or intelligence work that we need to be suspicious of? >> first, i want to thankig you, as you know i've written several bestsellers, when big agenda made it to number five onve "the new york times" list, i said now i'm going to be reviewed in "the new york times" and "the washington post" and i'll be invited onto panels on cnn. didn't happen. that's because we're in a a civil war situation. the democrats have adopted the slogan resist, resistance. that's what partisans did against the, that's not what an opposition party does. was trump tower tapped? of course it was. the nsa collects every communication. the question is can the intelligence be opened and used. to answer that, you have to o say doesn't barack obama or the democratic party, did they respect our national security laws? the answer is obvious, no. hillary clinton violated the espionage act, she put on the private

stone and carter page. all four have denied improper contacts. today the white house reacted to the possible collusion. press secretary sean spicer telling cnn's sara murray. >> when you use a phrase like associates you don't put a time frame, it's nebulous at best that somebody over and over again making a claim the way you do and the narrative continues without any substantiation. >> reporter: and one of the obstacles the fbi faces and finding conclusive intelligence that communications between trump's associates and russians have ceased and some russian officials have changed their methods of communications making monitoring more difficult. wolf, the fbi declined to comment. >> pamela, thanks very much. pamela brown with the report. >>> democrats say a clout is hanging over the intelligence committee's investigation of russia's meddling because of the actions of devin nunes. nunes apologized today for rushing to brief the president on information he hasn't evshar with his panel. manu raju has new information. >> devin nunes will not reveal how he came into possession of the infor

sara carter, she's going to come back tonight so people will want to stick around saying that the fbi has been investigated and found evidence of collusion between the russian officials on the trump campaign. if as you know, james clapper said much the same in a series of television interviews a few days ago. what's all the hullabaloo about if the fbi hasn't found anything that's really collusion? >> i asked that question in my column. here we are about to embark and we are be completely flooded with news about two accusations. the first is that the trump campaign colluded with the russians, as you say there's no evidence for that. you can ask anybody there is this, there's that. >> this meeting and contact. >> that doesn't mean a thing. flynn had a meeting with the russian ambassador, maybe he talked about sanctions. so what? that's his job. the meetings prove nothing, there is no evidence that they may discover evidence i'm not saying it's impossible. as of now, we have this complete frenzy where there's no evidence of collusion, as you say, james clapper is not a guy who's havi
