susan rice's role in this issue is central. charles: we are watching president trump and the first lady as they await president moon from south korea. there is a lot going on in that korean peninsula. charles: from the comey testimony and the thing he said about loretta lynch to susan rice, even if it's behind closed doors, a major step toward discovery of what's going on. >> i have been calling upon the republicans on the hill -- charles: the president is greeting south korea's president moon. a lot to talk about. it's one of the more dangerous areas in the world. it will be a are you si -- willa reciprocal trade policy. i anticipate a great meeting. he's insisting on an america first trade policy and policies that benefit both countries. this one at a time approach has worked well rather than those large agreements where we lose a lot of of our negotiating power. back to you, mark on this bombshell news that greeted us at the top of the hour. >> the f.b.i. brought in the clinton campaign leaders and operatives, didn't put the

susan rice, john brennan and samantha power. the inclusion of samantha power has raised some red flags. judge andrew napolitano said this. >> should've had nothing to do with this unless it was for political purposes, so the unmasking is a below the radar screen crisis. occurred at the tail end of the obama administration when they began to fear hey, donald trump might win. >> eboni: michael, i appreciate the judge's enthusiasm. we all know unmasking is not a legal and we the definition, it's a subjective standard. i think that's what's frustrating. eric, you point out how dangerous it is. all anybody has to say is susan rice, she said she needed to know who these people are. where is the crime? >> michael: we have political warfare in this country and we had it for decades. it's only now that the right has started fighting the left, yesterday was having awful comedian with the horrible cartoon. >> eboni: who? >> michael: kathy lee gifford i think. when the corporate press thinks it's her problem, when -- they have to be held wi

she never did that, like susan rice dead. second of all, in terms of what she just had come i think it is 100% right. i think what is shocking, quite frankly, our politics has descended so low that that's even a controversial statement the president of united states is working to advance american values. i think every president of the united states, whether they are liberal, conservative, republican, democrat, is doing their best to advance the american values. i think barack obama was probably the worst president our country ever had, but i think he woke up every day trying to do good for the country as he sought. the same is true of donald trump. why can't we just accept that they have differing views and they are trying to do the best for our country as they see fit and advance the values of our country? >> martha: good point. jessica? >> i don't disagree entirely, certainly in the rating of president obama, but that's a whole different segment. i think what condoleezza rice says, and honestly how she has been for the enti

there's a lot of politics in play. >> i don't think susan rice was good for the job she was in. i don't agree with that whatsoever. i don't question her clearance. she was cleared. no problem. it's been revealed that she requested more unmasking of names and with a greater volume after the election. julie: i'm just saying do not give security clearance to someone that you think the russians are going to use to blackmail the united states. i mean, what? >> there's no question. julie: yeah, no. anyway, congressman, thank you very much. appreciate it. >> thank you, have a great day. julie: so fun, kelly. kelly: antitrump protestors are rallying nation hide the march for truth. coming up the answers they're seeking. you don't let anything keep you sidelined. that's why you drink ensure. with 9 grams of protein and 26 vitamins and minerals. for the strength and energy to get back to doing... ...what you love. ensure. always be you. usaa gives me the and the security just like the marines did. the process through usaa is so effortless, that you feel like you're a part of the family. i

it's not just susan rice. it's the others. i'd like to know, quite frankly, in the president's presidential briefing every day what information was provided to him about fisa court requests and unmasking. >> eric: here's what's important. when you lean on susan rice, maybe she did not leak. when she gets a little nervous, when you start tightening the dragon around her, she will tell us who actually leak. >> eboni: i don't think so. >> eric: someone's going to jail. you can't do it. somebody committed a felony. >> they will find some low-level patsy and hang it on them. >> i wish these members of congress were smart enough to do that. they aren't smart enough. and she took them tasked to tha that. >> eboni: up next, the firestorm between president trump and msnbc host. even with allegations of blackmail. stay with us. ♪ that's cool. i got a new helmet. we know steve. switching to allstate is worth it. the toothpaste that helps new parodontax. prevent bleeding gums. if you spit blood when you brush or floss you may have gum p

rice, powers, brennan, people became giddy with excitement that perhaps we will get to the truth finally. in responding to requestsvery for information regarding those foreign intelligence surveillance activityings. charles: i also hear the nsa is not exactly, you know, cooperating that much either. what do you make of it then? going back to the end of president obama, former president obama's term where he allowed -- he gave the power for so many people to be able to do this. obviously, creating an atmosphere where leaks became so much more possible. really rewrite history as to how the obama administration is viewed. charles: real quick, matthew, i want to get your thoughts of a report i saw in "the new york post" that journalists are now being surveilled to help find out where these leaks are possibly coming from. first, your thoughts on the legality of that, and do you would be a lot of concern trying to figure out where these leaks are coming from. charles: matthew whitaker, thank

did susan rice -- >> is she of interest to you? >> it's not clear to me what she may or may not know. i will say this about unmasking. it is a word that sounds ominous. it's something that happens every single day on the part of senior administration officials when they need to look at a masked u.s. person's name to understand the intelligence they are looking at. of course, it's something we take seriously here. you are, in fact, exposing a u.s. person's name to a senior official. as a result, that is surrounded by lawyers, audited by inspector generals. there are those making allegations if susan rice may have unmasked something. maybe she did. the question is was it unproper? i have no reason to believe it is. she has aggressively denied she did any improper unmasking. my guess is that's what the conversation is going to revolve around. >> chairman nunez, who kind of stepped aside from the investigation, will he be participating in the interview with susan rice? >> i would be surprised if that's the case. again, i have been list

[laughter] because susan rice, we know what she said about benghazi. we know what she said about bowe bergdahl and what she said about the unmasking. here she is saying 17 intel agencies. steve: oopsy daisy. we thought we would set the record straight. hand it over to jillian to has headlines for us. jillian: we want to get caught up on what you need to know before heading out the door. amazing rescue by the coast guard after a boat carrying five people including a child capsizes. hang on for dear life as you can see here, rescue team getting the five people out of the water. all of this haps happening miles away from writesville beach in north carolina. it is unclear why that boat capsized. tennis star venice williams is at fault for car crash that left an elderly man dead. police report shows williams cut in front of another car when she drove through an intersection near her home in palm beach gardens, florida earlier this month. the other vehicle slamming into hers leaving the passenger with fatal injuries. williams has not been charged. there is n

susan rice has admitted that she did unmask when she said that she hadn't. it is a big deal because this is supposed to protect american citizens from foreign operatives who wish to do us harm. if there talking to americans and their names are revealed, it ultimately does them harm. >> trish: it feels very banana republic to me. this feels like something a government and south america would be pulling. this is not something that the united states government should be doing, not the kind of behavior you would expect of our leaders to be engaging in. this unmasking is very scary because this is all about them trying to influence who is actually running the country and a way that i think is very detrimental to our foundation and who we are. this is not right and this could turn out to be a very scary situation. >> kennedy: how many agencies can share information, it doesn't matter who your party is, what your gender is. it's wrong, it's a violation of civil liberties and we have to keep an eye on it. they are not offering tips on spicing things up in the boudoi

. >> bret: there are subpoenas out for the house intelligence committee for susan rice, john brennan, and the samantha power, the former u.s. ambassador to the united nations about this unmasking issue. this is the democrat of the house until committee questioning all of this. >> i don't know what the chairman had this in mind because we weren't consulted and why the chairman is picking these three people apart aside from the fact that they were part of the obama administration. if susan rice has been a perennial target for whatever reason, but again, we have a very little insight into what the chairman is doing here and i think the only guidance we can get is what we hear coming out of the white house. if this is what the white house wants to see happen, they would rather be talking about these issues. >> bret: were back with the panel, the coverage of this is a long -- track, not really the substance of the unmasking. >> when you're looking at the actual things that are going on with these investigations, we do have evidence of crimes, leaked u.s. persons information to end plays a

why won't susan rice talk? >> bret: hillary clinton is obviously convinced of the linkage, the collusion, even though there's not evidence that we've seen. she talked about it at length today about the linkage and she believes the trump campaign is there. here are former clinton cia director and former obama cia director. "there's a lot of things i've seen, i think have been disclosed too much. the real scandal here, makes it hard for the secrecy that's essential for the operation of the u.s. government. i think people who have broken these tacit informal agreements taking classified information attorney lids are basically traitors to the country." then you have michael morel and the obama administration, acting cia director about the kushner story on "the washington post" " just a perspective of two former democratic cia directors. >> democratic is the keyword. they are not partisans. what they are speaking for is the institutions, and they are basically saying you might have a romantic notion. being a deep th

we don't know whether or not susan rice did anything wrong or not. that's what congress is trying to figure out. >> a number of people said she didn't on both sides of the aisle. >> the bottom line is the documents haven't been produced and it's a serious allegation. prejudicial views are not having her lie about benghazi. what she said about benghazi is not true. she wonders why she is the center of the concern is because of her own actions. >> shannon: there are multiple ongoing investigations and requests for information from her and others. my understanding thus far she will not participate and take part in this. could she clear up some of those things about why unmasking was done and where leaks came from. if she goes on the record does it help her case? >> i believe it does. we talked about it a few weeks ago on this program where she should appear. the issue she wasn't given enough time to prepare and felt like it was partisan motivated. she got the request only from the republicans on the committee and not the democrats as well. but i think i

this is something that susan rice has adamantly denied and said she has done nothing withdrawn. people who have reviewed say she has done nothing wrong. she has agreed to testify behind closed doors as part of the investigation and the house side which is ramping up as they try to interview a number of high profile witnesses next month not only susan rice but roger stone and both trump advisers who agreed to talk to the committee in the coming weeks. >> they will be very busy. thanks very much. we are hearing new rumblings that senate leaders are not likely to draft compromise bill by tomorrow as hoped. let's go to ryan nobles up on capitol hill. we are learning more about the senate's plans impact on medicaid, as well. >> a new addition to the congressional budget office's report was released today. it predicts that medicaid funding will slow by 35% by 2036. it does gont eas far as to predict how many will come off the health insurance roles. this report comes as senate republicans continue to haggle over this legislation. tonight the white house is taking a more active role in

at the end of the day, samantha powers, clapper, susan rice, they could come up with nothing. the group of people being subpoenaed have far more checkered histories, one could argue. michael flynn, michael cohen. they're not peers of samantha power. >> well, they're totally different parties, first of all. >> yes. >> i don't want to pay you $2, so it is unprecedented we have this going on right now. i think nunez is actually trying to get to the bottom of what is going on. however, the timing of this is very concerning and it should not have been done in a freelance position. if any official, be it any administration, unmasks somebody for some sort of political motive, that is absolutely unacceptable. i think that nunez really needs to explain why he did it now, of all times, and why the president put out a tweet just the same morning that he did it. is he still colluding with the white house? >> ithe a chance it could blow up in his face though if they subpoena samantha power, susan rice, et cetera? if they were unmasking tied to bad behavior that members of the trump campaig

they are seeking documents from john brennan, susan rice and samantha power. those subpoenas related to allegations the obama administration improperly unmasked names of american citizens. joining us now to talk about it marie harf, and pete hoekstra. former house intelligence committee chairman. welcome to you both. all right. so we have two different sets of subpoenas. a group of them were pushed by the ranking member schiff, those are more toward the russia probe but the three that go to the intelligence agencies. the first question i have marie, to you, why would ambassador samantha power, a diplomat, be asking for unmasking? >> we'll see what the facts are here. i don't know why these people are sub aoen add and we'll see what that information shows. policymakers and national security officials, foreign policy officials need more information about these intelligence reports in order to do their jobs defending the foreign policy of the united states. i don't know the facts behind this. but i feel fairly confident when i served in the administration people

ainsley: condoleezza rice how do you think she was treated because susan rice said she took the same heat. she just said she is taking it worse. do you agree with that? >> i don't know off hand to be honest. i think that condoleezza rice, when we look at portrayals of her in international media, in u.s. media, calling her a raven and, you know, the whole military boots thing, the secretary of state of the united states had to defend a fashion choice that was actually a really fierce one, i think that looking at the way women are boxed in and the way that appearance and sue per plus things actually have to be discussed at all is something that we really should be advancing beyond. ainsley: you know, camille, i can understand when you are talking about gender when you don't get equal pay and dhifned thing. when she didn't do her job and she lies over and over and over at the national level on national television to all of us and people died in benghazi, why does it have to be about sexism? why does it have to be about racism? why can't it just be on the facts and her record? >> i think

speaking of susan rice, she was caught in another lie. remember when she said this? >> we did blow the whistle on october 7th and that came as soon as the intelligence community, 17 agencies, came to a consensus was involved as an effort to play in the electoral process. rob: the new york times issuing a correction about their fake news claim that all 17 us intelligence agencies agreed the russians did hack the 2016 election, these are big stories that are being taken back and retracted. this is hundreds of journalists walking out in protest. and in an effort to save money. >> two police officers fighting for their lives after a traffic stop turned into a gunfight. >> immediately coming under fire. the officers able to fight back killing one suspect taken into custody, one of those officers is in grave condition, and nine year veterans of the force. did you hear about venus williams? she is at fault for a car crash that left an elderly man dead. this police report shows williams cut in front of another car when she drove through an intersection near her home in palm

susan rice, john brennan, samantha power. it's all related to the unmasking scandal. sara carter and john solomon will join us next. also later tonight... >> they make these decisions time and time again in aol way that makes it appear that they are hostages. that he is vladimir putin's hostage. >> sean: nbc sinking to brand-new lows in their anti-trump coverage. herman cain weighs in. and the vice president, mike pence, discusses the president pulling out of the paris climate agreement. ♪ your body was made for better things than rheumatoid arthritis. before you and your rheumatologist move to another treatment, ask if xeljanz is right for you. xeljanz is a small pill for adults with moderate to severe ra for whom methotrexate did not work well. xeljanz can reduce joint pain and swelling in as little as two weeks, and help stop further joint damage. xeljanz can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections, lymphoma and other cancers have happened. don't start xeljanz i

susan rice, john brennan, samantha power. the president tweeted earlier today... i think he's right over the target. joining us with reaction, sara carter and john solomon. unappealing layers of an onion here. now this is a big one that has been peeled away. >> what we wanted to do with follow the facts. the documentation. i think with the house intelligence committee is doing is the same thing. they are looking at what are they unmasking and why? with this all related to necessary foreign intelligence that they needed to know or were they unmasking other people? this is what we don't know yet. what we suspect is for other people are being unmasked. devin nunes who spoke a little bit about it, peter king and others who have had some knowledge about what is in those documents. i think that is what is so important here. what were they unmasking and why? those are the answers we need in order to understand the gravity of this. >> sean: we've got to also put this in context, john. this is all part of your reporting as well. this is seen through the prism of an electio

the subpoena specifically named susan rice, samantha, and john. tweeting quote the big story is the unmasking and surveillance of people that took place during the obama administration. fox news senior judicial analyst judge andrew napolitano joins me now and, you know, if there's something there, if, that's scary stuff. >> well, if there's something there, meaning unmasking, the revelation of a person whose communication has been captured by the intelligence community and used for political purposes, we have a very, very serious threat to the republic. so unmasking is only illegal if it's done for the wrong purpose and given to the wrong people. so if susan rice needs to know with whom citizen x is speaking in russia, and she needs to know the name of that person, she's entitled to know it, as long as she uses it for intelligence purposes. but if she uses it for political purposes, or she is unmasking citizen x talking to citizen x and has nothing to do with national security, then we have a very, very serious threat to the integrity of the repub

it was not just susan rice, it was cia director, and john brennan, attorney general loretta lynch, very interesting, and to the question that i have, i want to know when did they send all of these documents over to the library? that's what i am concerned about. a day trying to hide this from the american people? these are actual federal documents, i assume that there is a lot of concern here. >> sean: tom just told us why. >> what about the intelligence committee? >> sean: shipped them out quick, right? so much investigative work on all of these issues, mueller, rosenstein, comey, investigative creek. i agree with you, mueller needs to be recused, comey needs to be looked into for crimes, hillary clinton investigated, rosenstein recused, it never happens. they dig deeper because they cannot get russia-trump collusion. >> because they are not losing themselves, you have to wonder why? is there reason other than the law and the statutes, so forth? is this a vendetta? is it retribution or revenge for the firing of james comey? because comey and mueller are best friends, are they now acting

fox news confirmed there are three others for the obama administration officials, susan rice from the cia director john brennan and samantha pour. what do -- power. what do you think it means in terms of the unmasking? >> unmasking is letting out who you have intercepted communications from even if it was an accident. for example, the cia or nsa can't basically randomly spy on americans but sometimes if you're spying on a russian, diplomat, you'll pick up a conversation with an american and then in the document that is are put together the name of the american is masked, blacked out in some face but then if you go further and you unmask and you show it to that to people who don't have clearances or don't have a need to know, you for whatever reason, political or whatever you've done a very bad and daughters-in-law thing from the point of classified information. dagen: as a diplomat what business does she have requesting the unmasking of individuals? how often did it happen? who were the trump officials, what was the justification of it in. >> those are all great questions. i don't kno

susan rice has been a tar fet for the gop for whatever reason. we have very little insight into what the chairman is doing here. i think the only guidance we can get is that we hear coming out of the white house. this is what the white house wants to see happen. they'd rather be talking about these issues. again, the intelligence agencies have been cooperating with us. we do oversight all the time of issues of unmasking, so i'm not sure why there was a necessity to issue a subpoena for agencies that are already working with us unless the goal was simply to get publicity or perhaps obskcue the subpoenas. >> you may have seen the president's tweet earlier this morning. he tweeted the big story is the unmasking and surveillance of people that took place during the obama administration. clearly he and devin nunez are on the same page right now. i thought devin nunes had removed himself from the rush vchg investigation. >> clearly the president thinks it relates to the russia investigation. there are a couple issues here. one is that the chairman is s

if it goes from susan rice john breneman to samantha power. that's widespread. ainsley: russia thing has been investigated for how many months now, 8 or 9 months. have you heard brennan and clapper say it, no evidence that shows collusion. but there is definitely a leaker. there is definitely unmasking happening and i think republicans want to get to the bottom of it. brian: they both are going to be doing the same thing. too bad they can't be doing it together or doing it behind closed doors and making real progress. pete: what is a u.n. leaks or. brian: or sharing intelligence. when you watch those hearings. don't focus a lot of times on the answers. focus on the questions. especially if the questions seem to come out of nowhere. that was a question trey gowdy. i know you are not going to answer. this the fact brennan couldn't answer that question. i don't remember, i remember savingly something like that. ainsley: makes you say what does trey gowdy know and what is he getting at. brian: especially trey gowdy in particular. they know a lot of stuff. pete: yest

sources are telling us tonight that behind closed doors, susan rice has agreed to testify before the house. they have targeted her believing she was involved in so-called unmasking of the identity. in intelligence reports she has denied she has done anything wrong, but she has agreed to testify, jim. and that's going to happen as the committee plans to interview a number of witnesses next month. >> thanks very much. manu raju on the bill. >> out front, the ranking member of the hout intelligence committee, congressman, thanks for taking the time tonight. >> thanks, jim. >> we noticed whachs a strong bipartisan statement from the europeans today saying that the white house response to the question on any potential comey tapes in the words of the statement stopped short of clarifying. i thought this was key, too, threatening compulsory action if your committee doesn't get the answers it wants. are you saying that if you don't get confirmation, you are prepared to subpoena the white house on this question? >> you know, our practice has been we always seek voluntary inspiration from anyo

he talks about he wants any information about unmasking requests from samantha power, from susan rice, from john brennan. >> well, as you just heard from phil mattingly's report, i think the nature of how these subpoenas were issued sort of betrays the motivation behind them. so you had four subpoenas that were issued on a bipartisan basis. that tells you that there's a legitimate oversight purpose being served with the issuance of those subpoenas. and then you have three that the republican chairman nunes acted alone in issuing and actually sort of violated his own previous commitment to step back from this investigation. so i think that tells you everything you need to know about the lack of any legitimacy to this. there's been plenty said and plenty of national security experts have explained that even though we don't know yet who might have been responsible for any unmasking that took place in this incident, if, say, someone like susan rice were to have sought it, it would have been entirely appropriate given the nature of what the u.s. government has been concerned about for thes

stuart: so why is all the publicity about comey and very little about susan rice, samantha power? and why on earth is samantha power -- who is a diplomat and that's it -- why is she, reportedly, asking for the names of people identified by the nsa? what on earth is going on? >> well, you know, it sounds like mischief, to me. if you look at from the point of view of an investigator, what is her need to know? i mean, you can have classified material given to you if you have the right clearances, but part of the process is that you have to have a need to know. what was her need to know? and the only thing i can think of is for political purposes, and that's not what it's all about. i think it was totally inappropriate not only for her to ask for it, but for the intelligence community to give it to her. that's even more troubling to me than the request. stuart: danny, what is your opinion of fbi director comey before, during and after the election? >> oh, my goodness. i think james comey's a good man. i've had meetings with him within the last couple of months, and i think he's a good

if susan rice and u.n. ambassador warned fact making a request of the elegance community that i want to listen to lindsey graham's conversation with the foreign person, that bothers me simply because i'm in a different branch of government. what national security value comes from having someone like susan rice be able to listen into conversations with the lyrical opponents and foreign leaders. pat to me would be be a great abuse of intelligence gathering. the question is did the obama industry should politicize intelligence? we won't know until we find out who made a request from asking how many americans were surveilled. on the 15th demo collections. how many were members of congress, how many requests in their conversations. >> we will see. good to see you, senator. >> more developing from london this hour. scott yards this afternoon is a major concert is about to begin in manchester. how do you keep this event safe today? we are their life in a moment. bill: fox news alert. what we are learning about ari

>> tom: hillary clinton, obama, susan rice. >> eric: susan rice went on five separate talkshows. >> eboni: i resent that, it has a racial connotation. >> eric: we will circle back with our specialists shelby holliday and tom fitton. don't go away. when they thought they should westart saving for retirement.le then we asked some older people when they actually did start saving. this gap between when we should start saving and when we actually do is one of the reasons why too many of us aren't prepared for retirement. just start as early as you can. it's going to pay off in the future. if we all start saving a little more today, we'll all be better prepared tomorrow. prudential. bring your challenges. >> kat: time to circle back with our specialists shelby holliday and tom fitton. tom, what did you think of the leaks and all that happened today? >> tom: 4.5 million people have security clearances and it's no surprise that someone like reality winner -- it's a serious issue. too many people have access to sensitive information in the casual approach to leaking classified information just bec

susan rice, under president obama, will, indeed, testify in front of the house intelligence committee. the back story to this, the top ranking republican went after her bringing claims. she's going to talk. what else do you know? >> initially, she refused to appear in front of the committee. now she is going to appear, it's going to be a closed door session. she probably will talk about what she learned. a lot is classified information. she'll go into detail about what she knew about michael flynn. but, what we don't know is if she was actually involved in it or if there was any need to unmask michael flynn's information and the intelligence that they have learned. this has been the focus of the republicans on the hill, certainly on the house side. they have been very interested in this unmasking and who released and who revealed michael flynn's name. keep in mind, we believe that the investigation may not have needed for his name to be unmasked because the way the u.s. government learned of his name may not have required that. >> again, a closed door hearing in front of the house int

at some point when you know john brennan, samantha power and susan rice had access to unmasked americans' intelligence, the next obvious question is did they brief the president? did the president benefit from that? i'm certain as the summer winds on, we're going to get questions like that, and hopefully, a few answers. lou: and upcoming as well is the interrogation, if you will -- [laughter] the testimony of the former director of the fbi. >> sure. lou: i want to get your sense of that, because it seems to me that as one looks at the record of director comey amongst the first questions that should be asked by the panel is how is it you did not bring scandal after scandal after scandal to resolution and left open files and open cases that look for all the world like political, if you will, subterfuge rather than investigative success? >> june 8th is going to be a very big day for james comey to come back to the hill and testify before the senate. and i think it's going to be a little bit, i think it could be comey versus comey, which i think some of the words he uttered previously are go

john brennan, former dreck of the cia, susan rice, former nationecity adviser and samantha power. first of all obvus run and could as part of the intelligence community could unmasked names. that was part of his remix. susan rice is somewhat stranger because usually the national security advisor doesn't get involved at that level. the samantha power, totally unheard of. although she may be considered in some formal sense a part of the intelligence community. >> who knows. i think there is examination. maria: we will examine in the weeks to come. the thursday testimony will be important. michael mukasey, great to see you. thank you for your insights as always. getting back to live, do we know about the attackers. the man who oversaw the response to the boston marathon attack as you know who likes to be in control? this guy. check it out! self-appendectomy! oh, that's really attached. that's why i rent from national. where i get the control to choose any car in the aisle i want, not some car they choose for me. which makes me one smooth operator. ah! still a little tender.

former national security advisor susan rice, samantha power and former cia director john brennan all named in the subpoenas. a senior aid claims nunes was acting separately and he only recused himself. >> can this investigation continue? >> why would it not? >> in april nunes announced he was temporarily putting mike conway in charge of the russian probe. he faced a firestorm of criticism about how he handled classified materials when he obtained documents in a secret white house meeting. >> i have seen intelligence reports that clearly show that the president-elect and his team were, i guess, at least monitored. >> i don't agree with the chairman's characterization. >> the house rules state the chairman can issue subpoenas if he consults with the democrats. it is clear that did not happen in some cases. also this morning the president now weighing in on this debate over what this committee should be looking at. the president tweeting just within the last hour saying the big story is the unmasking and surveillance of people that took place during the obama administration. >> all righ

susan rice is somewhat stranger because usually the national security advisor doesn't get involved at that level. the samantha power, totally unheard of. although she may be consider in some formal sense a part of the intelligence community. >> who knows. i think there is examination. maria: we will examine in the weeks to come. the thursday testimony will be important. michael mukasey, great to see you. thank you for your insights as always. getting back to live, do we know about the attackers. the man who oversaw the response the man who oversaw the response to the boston marathon attack as i love to eat. i love hanging out with my friends. the man who oversaw the response to the boston marathon attack as i have a great fit with my dentures. i love kiwis. i've always had that issue with the seeds getting under my denture. super poligrip free. it creates a seal of the dentures in my mouth. even well fitting dentures let in food particles just a few dabs of super poligrip free is clinically proven to seal out more food particles so you're more comfortable and confident while you eat.

this is going to kill us with loretta lynch and susan rice and all the rest. their interests are not aligned on this topic. >> tucker: what do they do at that point? to they go back to finding a new murder trial to cover? what is the next ways for them? >> i think the trouble when you go down this thing -- it's like, we used to have these things long before television. 80 years ago, when there where supposedly be a 5-year-old boy trapped in a well, and the media would camp out around the well to wait for the little boy to be rescued, and that was dramatic in a sob story way. but if there is no little 7-year-old in the well, if there actually is nothing there, then, all you have done in the long run, i think, is destroyed yourself. you go back to that malaysian jet thing, they actually are, in this case, they are -- do you remember on cnn when they thought the malaysian jet might have flown into a black hole? that's what they have done. they have taken a very small story and an expanding end, they are flying their network into a black hole. whether they can eme

but we have had susan rice all but confirmed that she did, indeed, unmask trump officials and mr. brennan too. so it'll be interesting to see what she has to say because it's very difficult to come up with a good reason for why the former embassador to the united nations would be unmasking officials. paul: all right, what about devin nunes and the democrats are hitting him, you're supposed to be out of the russian probe and why are you issuing subpoenas? >> he has never rescued himself from the question of who is doing leaking and who is doing unmasking in the white house or out of the white house. paul: all right, let's talk, joe, about this attempt in the white house now, we have news that they're hiring some lawyer lawyers, donald trump's long-time lawyer will lead the defense for donald trump and create a unit in the white house much as karl rove advised that would deal with this, isolated, try to quarantine it? >> moving their agenda and managing a scandal, the benefit here is that you've got a lot of policy people that are getting pulled off on the russia news of the day and
