i've always had a lot of respect for the fbi. i started in politics during the nixon era when you still had some -- not necessarily best people in the fbi and other agencies. and i think over the last 20 or 30 years we've tried to clean that up and move it forward. somehow it's politicized in the last eight years and i think the justice department was the lead of that. and i think there's no question -- i've never seen in all of the years i've been around politics, ever an attempt to tip the balance as they did. they were pro-hillary and anti-trump. and the idea that you were going to let the people make their choice, have a check mate system of. gregg: it never made sense when james comey stood up in july of 2016 and laid out a failly meticulous case of how hillary clinton had violated the law in the handling of her e-mails and then said but no reasonable prosecutor will bring this case. now we're beginning to learn how that all occurred. people changed the wording in his statement to clear her when nirnlly he was going to refer

but let's talk about the fbi. you spent time in the fbi. every former fbi and current fbi agent i've spoken to in the last week or so is of one voice. as an agency it may have issues it deals with on an ongoing basis. to say the fbi is in tatters and in need after rebuild is not only incorrect but a lot of people felt highly inappropriate for the president to be commenting on the fbi in that fashion. >> for sure. he's degrading the integrity of a u.s. institution which is going out and trying to execute the justice program he laid out in a speech. you want fbi agents to go into trump-supporting areas and do investigations, find leads, get tips. when he talks about making the fbi bigger and better, guess who was picked to do that, mueller. right after 9/11, he kept the fbi together. they were talking about breaking it into two pieces. mueller did it so well that he was actually asked to stay by a democratic president to stay longer. >> back then there were issues with intelligence gathering, real structural issues in our law enforcement agen
