are congress contemplating our contempt of congress for the justice department and the attorney general, and ultimately impeachment? if indeed niece documents are not provided? >> the idea they question thousands of documents and they are not getting it. one thing that's very important for viewers to know. the justice department and fbi are not independent agencies. they are part of the executive branch of the government. >> here is the president saying turn it over to congress. ed: there shouldn't be any issue here. the trucks are lined up to take them over there. lou: we talk about the deep state and its attempted subversion of him and his presidency. this is subversion embed in the justice department and fbi and it will have to be road out. ed: let's do it. lou: up next china imposing tariffs and the business media looked at the markets and went nuts. find out why the hysteria is miss placed, overdone and as usual fake. that's next. liberty mutual stood with me when i was too busy with the kids to get a repair estimate. i just snapped a photo and got an estimate in 24 hours. my insur

what is it you think congress couldn't see. gregg: it's a classic excuse by the department of justice. it may be confidential to many americans. >> trey gowdy, devin nunes, they have all the security clearances you possibly could have. they are elect bid their colleagues to chair the committees. the next day he should have been out there trying to hold these people in contempt. but the leadership within the republican party, they don't have the guts to do it. >> should jeff sessions, rod rosenstein and christopher wray be held in contempt? >> if it would mean something. but like we learned with eric holder. for the first time in the history of the united states, the attorney general is held in contempt of congress and it meant nothing. somebody needs to get a backbone. they do not stand up for themselves it's part of the reason i left it's sow sickening and disgusting it is that congress acts like -- gregg: and corrupt. it's just wrong, so wrong. coming up next. congressman trey gowdy has a lot on his mind as he nears the end o

what business do they have keeping from congress the documents that congress is entitled to. it is a cause for impeachment. >> lou: it is the responsibility of congress under the constitution to be an oversight over the justice department. and in the idea that comey and mueller and rosenstein, and others are sort of creating the chorus of we are an independent agency and we don't report to anybody including god. they are now a rogue department and agency. don't you think? >> they are more than that, lou, my husband and i have said this for sometime that there was a cabal by a group of people in this town to clear hillary clinton so that she didn't get indicted and could continue to run for president as comey said. we thought she would get it and if that did not work, to frame donald trump and look how that has happened. >> lou: as stark and as page pointed out, that was the insurance policy and clear that that cabal was formed in the obama administration, it was set in motion by president obama in my yment and his attorney general then eric holder who you talk about the essen

but it is probably not going to happen because congress is slow-footed. look at how long they waited. they issued these subpoenas in august, eight months ago. lou: they were to produce the documents five months ago. that was when they first issued the order. >> right. lou: and now we're looking at an extension from the first -- the original date was last week and now we're talking about tomorrow. >> they should have moved for contempt five months ago at the deadline. if you don't meet the deadline, lou, or i don't meet the deadline, we're held in contempt of court and they through us in the hug jail within 24 hours. lou: when the american people watch this and there is no contempt of congress filed against the justice department, the fbi leadership and they don't stand up for a president who is working harder than anyone in washington. >> right. lou: there's going to be hell to pay. >> well the approval rating of congress hovers right around 11%, 12% and there's a good reason for that. they deserve it. lou: i suspect it's a little inflated. greg, thanks s

and why lie to congress and the court? the whole thing 0 sense. and trying to put a smiley face and it is garbage. >> lou: it is such garbage and unintelable. i couldn't go beyond the first page. comey carrying out disinformation campaign and using the congress and the american people as stage props. that is appalling. >> just think about it. fbi director has a press conference and a public event and said hey, g, we can't get in to iphones f. that is true, why would he make that statement, and reveal an intelligence gap. he had reason to know that technical people were not able. but if they were not the nsa could. you do a request. we have dead americans killed by savage terrorist and we are not playing patty cake and talk about what we might be able to do. and we need to find out the killers and go after them. >> and another incident. but it presidenty on the part of the agency. nmoteen was a decade fbi informant. what in the world was going on that they didn't know what he was up to and his family was up to. >> and to make it sure. down there wh

but again, it's also congress' -- congress has not really exercised oversight for decades. and it's a few people. it's goodlatte, nunes who are finally exercising the oversight as they should have done for decades on the hill. lou: i think truly it's only nunes. goodlatte is a latecomer to the issue and he is also an early exiter from this congress, retiring. it is without devin nunes and solely nunes among those true, it is truly to nunes that we owe a great debt for continuing to search for the truth and serving the constitution by insisting on oversight. no one else has had those guts. >> lou, the republic owe as great debt to nunes. that goes without saying. you're absolutely right. lou: as we look at talks with the north koreas at the highest level, as the president put. we've seen president xi defer, at least seem to defer publicly as kim jong-un is talking about sitting down with the president and having serious discussions at a summit. the president's actions in syria. this president is manifestly in charge of foreign policy and the counter walling that we once hear

in the 115 congress, we've left a lot of meat on the bone. we should still be fighting to repeal obamacare, fighting for spending cuts and welfare reform, fighting with this president to getting the money to build the wall. i'm looking for a speak who can be a leader on those things and won't hand all of the power over to chuck schumer and mitch mcconnell but will fight for the conservative principles that can get it electedded and right now i don't see that happening. just this week we gave back a legislative day instead of staying in town and fighting for this president's agenda and that is deeply disturbing to me. lou: how soon would you like to see that election and is there an appetite in the congress to see that election very very soon. >> i don't know when it will be but the ideas will matter more than the personalities. and we've got to have a fighting experience in the speaker's chair and i'm hopeful we'll get somebody that can lead the congress with that sense of purpose. lou: i think you should be fair for speaker ryan. he fought d
