because it's in obvious open violation of the special counsel statutes. and james comey and loretta lynch. there is not a single sign of life in those investigations, and maybe that's because they are so sophisticated and well run this not a ripple on the surface. what do you think? >> i would like to believe the latter. that they are running a tight ship, there is no leaking now that james comey has moved on. but i don't believe that to be true. andrew mccabe should not be the acting director. he's under three separate inquiries, another word for investigation. lou: we call them matter's here. >> i think it's something -- we should not be acting -- if he's under matters he should not be director. lou: with the investigation of the i.g., the inspector general. they are staring at every one. conclusion can be drawn. >> any f.b.i. agent under similar circumstances would have their clearance suspended. lou: up next. we are focusing on the swamp, washington's murky pool of corruption. that's the title of eric polling's new -- bowling's new lou: in our online poll we asked you should the

logical. it's also long cal that director james comey should have excused him from the investigation because of his political conflicts of interest in the investigation of hillary clinton, her emails as well as the foundation. >> think about this, lou. here you have the acting f.b.i. director now, andrew mccabe, he took over after comey was pushed out and fired. he's being investigated by the inspector general's office at the d.o.j. for the money his wife got from her campaign contribution. and he's being investigated by the office of special counsel. >> those are investigations of f.b.i. director james comey's judgment and failure to act. it seems to have been reasonably appropriate. we appreciate you being here. sarah carter, "circa news." pastor robert jeffress joins me next to discuss the high court's affirmation of the first amendment rights of all americans. imagine that. ststststst i got a mortgage offer from the bank today. whuuuuuat? you never just get one offer. go to lendingtree.com and shop multiple loan offers for free! free? yeah. could save thousands. you should probab

term rather than investigation. i would not assume james comey's character is the last word on it, even though i'm sure it is accurate, i would like to hearer loretta lynch's explanation for that is. lou: so would a lot of other senators. we're talking about an investigation of loretta lynch, james comey, hillary clinton and the dems are buying into it. >> yeah. i think it's time. -- lou: hell yes it's time. >> we begin to find out the other side of the story, that and obama administration doing nothing about russia for fear it would upset the election. lou: and the dem cats arcrats -- democrats are finally acknowledging they should talk about the passive tie. >> many people call this russian act of war, dick cheney i think among others. and obama did nothing. >> most fundamental thing is person who will chair this committee chuck grassley is as tough, as, he has been there 30 years, he has tough as anyone in u.s. senate, i promise you, if he goes after this bone he will get the dog and the bone, i don't know. i am very pleased it is moving forward. lou: and moving forward it is against

fib director james comey. that is a disappointment to a lot of people. >> not to me. i am glad he didn't have tapes. i lived through nixon tapes and i think the president did a mruf on comey and said you better be telling the truth and i think it worked. >> lou: why not any investigation of jams comey and loretta lynch and the republicans and the department of justice and attorney general begun investigations. clunton foundation and the e-mails and the want and reckless disregard. >> no reason f. you are going to have a broad-spectrum of looking. the team that he's putting together is big as any justice department criminal and find upon out what it is all about. >> lou: mueller is bring from nothing democrat and conflict of interest in so doing. it is time for the department of justice and this norgz attack be mueller head-on and get nonsense ended and if the democrats want to play in the foul stench of a swamp let them, but stop the nonsense as far as the president is concerned. >> again, you remember, a special counsel actses s on behalf of the attorney. >> lou: has sessions los

that mueller is close friends with james comey. john robert has our report on the president's busy day which included keeping a key campaign promise. >> with the democrats licking their wound from big elect losses, president trump found running room to go back on offense. in the east room, president trump keeping this commitment to the veterans. >> veterans have fulfilled their duty to this nation and now we must fulfill our duty to them. so to every veteran who is here with us today, i just want to say two simple word. thank you, thank you. reporter: va reform was a key issue in the president's campaign. >> all of these executives that let our veterans down, you are fired. reporter: sergeant michael verado was the face of the veterans today. >> what i was not repaired for was coming home to a broken va system. i wasn't prepared to watch my wife beg and plead so i could receive basic medical care. reporter: the president insisting the tweet may have encouraged comey to faithfully recount the details of their conversations. >> because then he has to tell what took place at the events. m

worked. lou: why is there no investigation of james comey? no investigation of former attorney general loretta lynch. why haven't the republicans, the department of justice, attorney general, begun investigation of clinton foundation, and clinton e-mails? the reckless disregard for the obligations to preserve the records. >> i think if you have a broad spectrum of looking at team that mueller is putting together is as big as any justice department criminal investigation, she should investigate it all. >> mueller is bringing in democrats. me is in violation of statute, appearance of conflict of interest. in so doing. it is time, is it not? for this administration, department of the justice to attack mueller had on, and get this nonsense ended and if democrats want to play in this foul, stench of a swamp, let them have it. but, stop the nonsense. >> again, remember that they talk about there are day, special counsel acts on behalf of the tern attorney general, my sense either attorney general steps up and says -- lou: has sessions lost his guts? >> i hope not, if he has, someone else nee

this testimony that is so accusatory whether it be james comey, whomever it may be, this is an attorney general who could be -- who could be, in my judgment, should be, be far more aggressive in bringing and holding accountable the previous luminaries of the obama administration whether it be hillary clinton, her e-mail scandal, her foundation scandal, or the exchange on the tarmac in her plane between the attorney general and the former president, bill clinton. >> i totally agree with you. i love jeff sessions, he's a great mentor, great attorney general. the democrats have gone after him specifically to undermine his credibility and ultimately undermine the president's credibility. part of that is keeping him from getting a staff confirmed, he has aides on the ground to do the things you and i would like to see him do. i have confidence he will get there. ira commissioners, long list of things that were swept under the rug that the american people deserve answers to and somebody should be held accountable. lou: and now this president is in charge of the government and the rep

, okay? who is james comey's buddy, and mr. mueller is assembling his team and has to somehow find all of these people, five of them have donated to democratic campaigns does. he have to have those people? could he have not chosen folks that didn't have a political bent? when you put all of this together, if i were the president of the united states and i've got james comey's buddy and collecting people that donated to the left, i might be darn worried about where they're going with this because it doesn't seem frankly fair. john: well, mr. mueller asked me to be a part of the force to investigate, but then found out i've never given any contributions to the clintons or the clinton foundation, so i was asked to no longer be considered. i'm being facetious. but trish, the truth is, this whole thing already smells worse than a big warm pile of donkey droppings. something here just doesn't smell right, if you think about that so many of the people who are supposedly objective investigators are people who are partisan contributors. it's one thing to be a voter to a democrat, but when you s

nothing wrong in fires james comey. >> there is a recommendation for removal of comey, he had been thinking about that, he then takes action they recommend to remove james comey. and now according to the washington post theory, he is under investigation for taking the action that department of justice told him to take. this whole thing, if you look at it, there is nothing to investigate. reporter: washington post last week reported that president was being investigated for possible obstruction of justice by special counsel mueller. news later said that mueller had not decided whether too investigate him or not yet. >> you don't know that he is not, under investigation now, do you? >> no one has notified us he is, i can't read people's minds. we have not been notified there is an investigation of president of united states, that nothing has changed in that regard. reporter: president seemed to take a critical shot last week at deputy attorney general rosenstein in a tweet, spicer today said that president has full confidence in rosenstein, kushner may be shopping for a new attorney

fire james comey who is, yes, you guessed it, a good friend and former colleague of robert mueller. now rosenstein added another dimension of absurdity to the mess he helped create. rosenstein is slamming leaks to the national media. most whiff originated with the man he recommended be fired from the f.b.i. this is what rosenstein said today in an official statement. quote, americans should exercise caution before receiving as true any stories attributed to anonymous quote-unquote officials. rosenstein effect lively telling americans not to trust the national left-wi mia, and their reporting, much of which relies on, yes, anonymous sources. it's a strange swamp, washington, d.c. as for the president, he was focused on policy, not the forces trying to subvert his administration and his policies. the president heading to miami to announce a major change in his policy on cuba. john roberts has our report. reporter: the president returned home a short while ago from miami to make good on a campaign pledge to get a better deal from cuba. >> effective immediately i'm canceling the last a

lou: he told the president to fire james comey, then gets haughty about the fact that the president then fires mr. comey. you can't make this stuff up. i apologize, very quickly, a few seconds left. your final thoughts? >> i think what we have to look at is what has happened with this entire situation, with mr. rosenstein, the firing of mr. comey, then say why are they not investigating loretta lynch for obstruction of justice because she did give a directive to james comey and he followed it. lou: congresswoman marcia blackburn, thank you for being with us. up next. draining that swamp in washington, d.c., draining all of those swamp creatures who inhabit it. we are going to talk with steve forks and ned ryun about whether firing robert mueller might be a step in the right direction. quit smoking. but when we brought our daughter home, that was it. now i have nicoderm cq. the nicoderm cq patch with unique extended release technology helps prevent your urge to smoke all day. it's the best thing that ever happened to me. every great why needs a great how. i've been blind since birth.

. we know the former fbi director james comey laid out enough of an evidentiary basis, enough evidence from his memory and from his notes sufficient to trigger a preliminary investigation of whether or not the president engaged in obstruction of justice. as you pointed out that doesn't necessarily mean the president is a target or bob mueller thinks there's enough evidence to indict if the president were capable of being indicted but it does mean enough evidence has been presented to the special prosecutor that would be unprofessional for them not to engage in a preliminary inquiry. on the other hand he has already debriefed jim comey. we don't know what jim comey toldim. it was likely a lot greater detail than what he told the senate intelligence committee last week and jim comey's e-mail so he is looking for evidence of obstruction of justice on the part of the president. kennedy: during comey's testimony to the senate last week he admitted to leaking at least one time to "the news york times" their asserted friend of his producer anyway rod rosenstein knew about comey sleek the four

mueller, the special counsel and the fired fbi director james comey. i thought they were interested in collusion, didn't you? and the left covering for former attorney general loretta lynch's illegal behavior in the clinton eshg mail case. the despicable dems, oh, they're the subject of my commentary tonight. stay with us, we'll be right back. lou: a few thoughts on the role of the deep state and the dems and the left's efforts to subvert the trump administration and its policies. president trump slammed the witch hunt. he tweeted this. why is it hillary clinton's family and dems' dealings with russia are not looked at. but my non-dealings are. and crooked h destroyed phones with a hammer and bleached emails and they talk about obstruction? another great question. this as the senate judiciary committee launched an investigation of the department of justice's handling of the clinton email probe. good luck with that because we have seen what these committees do. but this committee says it will also investigate the comey firing. good on you, judiciary, we really needed another investig
