it was very contentious this hearing with peter strzok strzok? >> well, it went kind of the way that i thought it was. the democrats were very obstructionists, making legal objections instead of getting to the truth here. when they make objections to asked, answered and irrelevant and grandstand as they di know that they are not trying to deduce facts but sway public opinion. i know that both sides are trying to get to the facts to let the american people see what is going on here but that did not happen. >> harris: you know, we were just talking about, katherine and i, about the advantages if you will, that list why page will have, because she will have seen pe peter strzok strzok, are there points where you wish that could you have two of them sitting side-by-side? is there fact-checking that is necessary after what we've heard? >> well, i really do not want them side-by-side but i'm reallyup set that list why page did not show up yesterday because this is exactly what i thought would happen. she is able now to take notes. she will show up tomo

and, they also had a chance to question peter strzok today. when they called -- they asked the phi's obvious questions, i called this single biggest abuse and power scandal in american history. was peter strzok and others, and they impact an american election in a way that they saw fit to hurt one candidate and help another. what does that mean in the united states of america? >> a politicization of law enforcement is the end of us. if we begin to view that blindfolded lady holding a set of scales as having an r or d on her breath plate, if that's where we are, then we are finished as a republic. i'm proud to be on the house intel committee and we've done some important work on the pfizer abuse. and we've made good progress on what went into that pfizer application. so i know this. i know there were lots of things that should have been in that application that was presented to the judge that were not, and i know that they decided not to charge her before they interviewed 30 fact witnesses. so if that is not a dichotomy where we will withhold e

the man of the day peter strzok, peter strzok till recently was the head of the counter intelligence division at the fbi which means he was literally the person in the u.s. government in charge of countering foreign countries intelligence operations in the united states. like, say, for example, if the russians or someone mounted a massive efforter to the swing our election and buy themselves a pet u.s. president in the process. peter strzok would lead the counter intelligence division of the fbi in the effort within our government to find that out, to investigate it, and to stop it. part of the fallout of the russia investigation and the republican backlash against that investigation is that peter strzok's career has been dismantled and the president and republicans who support the president have held peter strzok up for public scorn as a terrible person. that's one of the ways he'll go down in history when this is said and done. america was hit by a massive russian intelligence operation that infected our democracy. right? that was designed to sway an election the way russia wanted

today peter strzok's luck ran out. there are a number of things he said that are not supported by evidence. they could possiblily be false testimony and they are in conflict with other testimony we have had from rod rosenstein, the lead up in the monologue talking about bruce orr's involvement. you have one part of the doj saying he wasn't involved and you have testimony today that he is. we have long suspected that. i can tell you, the american people know that there was one particular witness today that had a hard time with the facts. >> sean: so -- congressman gates, i know this is the main question i get from people. so hillary clinton had a rigged investigation and they allowed her to continue because he was the favored one. he thought it was 100 million to none because smelly people like me wouldn't vote for donald trump. when do we get justice? when do we get to the bottom of the fisa abuse scandal? jim jordan got information on that today. when does the truth come out and when are these people held responsible

>> the fbi looks bad because peter strzok looks worse. i thought we could go in and start rebuilding and beginning the trust of the american public as a result of this hearing. it actually got worse. you see very clearly not just he took in this case but what really hurts and something that i never saw it in 30 of the fbi, that is this disdain and contempt for what i think is the american public in general. i've never seen that in the fbi. they usually get along and out there with everybody but when you start calling people deplorable and you go into walmart's and you text message that people smell, he didn't explain any of that. you can't be that way and be in the fbi. he's not just an fbi agent. i know democrats and the committee want to make sure people think that but he's a deputy assistant director of the counterintelligence division, he had a major say in the decision over the course of these cases. he had a major say of everybody working for him and the morale of people and their own attitudes. you l cannot lead and have this attit

liz: fbi peter strzok being interviewed about his bias. we are bringing in fred lawrence and the "fox business" contributor. what was your reaction to today's fiery hearing? >> look, one reaction in particular cannot compare peter strzok to ollie north. i watch those hearings and here's how the witness becomes sympathetic. strzok was not sympathetic. ollie north was sympathetic trait he went over the nation and you know how that happens? it when you tell the truth. when you are not telling the truth you are not a sympathetic person and it doesn't come through that you are. that was the problem with strzok showing up in the first place but i guess he didn't have a choice. he was subpoenaed in bed as he was not telling the truth. nobody could believe after reading those powerful e-mails, so powerful talking about stopping trump and certainly they were talked about in the hearing today and believed that he could just put all of that aside. i can't do that liz now that you can't do it. liz: he really had to cut his credibility when he said i c

that's why peter strzok was a lead investigator. on any given day at any given moment he would have been and could have been and was making independent decisions that influence the course of this investigation. so obviously, he has the ability to take actions that wouldn't have been questioned and might have been motivated by bias, most likely work. >> james comey was basically the king and this, he didn't do any of the work, he just took the copy. he was the one with the sleeves rolled up doing the investigating rachel or and michael flynn, and pushing it forward. he wanted me to bring it to jim jordan's questioning of peter strzok. he was relentless in pushing to find out about his role with the dossier and what bruce ohr's role was doing. and of course he is with the fbi and his wife worked for the group that got the dossier to begin with. so let's listen to this exchange. >> are there three copies of the dossier as evidence as you said an email? >> the buzz feet copy, the mccain copy and the when you got. >> we have received a v

remind us who peter strzok is, why you've called him and what you're looking for. >> well, peter strzok, as you may recall, was involved in the investigation of secretary hillary clinton's e-mails. he and another fbi agent, lisa page, had been involved in a relationship and in the investigation of that investigation, it was discovered that they had quite a number of text messages using government phones between them, which talked about their dislike of president -- then candidate, now president trump. as well as the investigation. >> so, what are you looking to hear? >> well, i'm actually not clear what we're going to be looking to hear from him, specifically. we conducted, two weeks ago, an 11-hour hearing, deposition of peter strzok, by members of the house judiciary and oversight committee, in which time he really expounded on, and you can imagine, 11 hours, expounded on everything. i think the purpose that chairman gowdy and chairman goodlatte are calling this is to bring to the public what happened in that deposition. >> and put this whole thing in context with the investigation. h

and then peter strzok has filled them with glee. he were super excite to berate peter strzok over his texts to lisa page. the problem is it is easier to beat up on a guy who isn't there able to explain exactly what he met. >> if i may, what is important is that these texts represent personal beliefs like would you find on my personal phone. what they donal represent is any act, any consideration that we need to do this or not do this. i forget who i said this to earlier this morning, you need to read the texts in the context of what was going on at the time. when i make the comment about trump having no idea how destabilizing his presidency would be, that came on the heels of a speech where candidate trump said he didn't know whether or not the united states should honor its commitment to mutual defense under nato. >> i appreciate that. thank you very much. that's not briefly. >> may the witness be permitted -- >> no, no, no. >> he should be per noticed answer his question. >> i told the gentleman he could answer briefly. >> he has

our top story is peter strzok, exposed on capitol hill. the exposed fbi agent, he turns angry as lawmakers grill him over his efforts to cover up for hillary clinton and take down president trump. >> the dossier was not part of it. when did you learn that the dossier was funded by hillary clinton and the democratic party? >> i cannot -- i do not think that is an accurate representation. so i cannot answer that question. so hillary, come on. it's a political document, correct? >> i cannot comment. >> lou: republican congressman both played key roles in the hearings, and both congressmen join us here tonight. president trump emerging triumphant from the nato summit, on the part of nato members to increase spending and now, the president is in the united kingdom and on the way to helsinki soon as the president is reshaping the european quarter in ways that his predecessors in the oval office could never imagine. we take up the historical significance of this trip. ed rollins, our top story, a bombshell just moments ago, and peter strzok's tes

as we go into this peter strzok hearing. what would you like to see and what documents do you still need to see? >> it is hard to question someone when you don't have all the documents. congress still doesn't have all the text messages, the emails. the government told us they want to take up to two years to turn over the communications between peter strzok and page. as best as i can tell, those are the first publicly available emails we have between them. they don't talk about russia gate yet. at least the process has begun. that is better than what congress is facing with the justice department. they haven't committed in providing anything. mr. strzok hasn't committed to testifying on the hill. his lawyer is arguing on whether he will testify or not. so congress has to decide to continually threaten the administration or members with impeachment or contempt. it doesn't seem to be getting them anywhere. they need to escalate it. either by bringing the president and directly or coming up with other ways to force the justices

lou: good evening, our top story, peter strzok exposed on capitol hill, dis graced fbi agent, arrogant, pe and angry, s lawmaker grill him over his effort to cover-up for hillary clinton, and take down president trump. >> dossier was not part of it. that is important. when did you learn that dossier of funded by hillary clinton and the democratic party? >> i cannot -- i don't think that is an accurate representation. and fbi directs me not to answer that question. >> right, so hillary, who paid you know -- come on. a political document, correct? >> i -- i. i am -- i cannot comment. lou: ron desantos and jim jordan playing important roles and they are joining us tonight. >> and urging a commitment on part of nato members to increase defense spending. now the president is so united kingdom. on the way to hel helsinki soon. we take up the historical significance of his trip with the dean himself, ed rollins. a possible new look for america's most iconic aircraft. president trump considering changes to air force one. we'll tell you all about those corrections here. -considerations. >> disg

yes, peter strzok's damning text messages. president trump and the republican who's support him and congress decided peter strzok's personal texts make him an object of outrage on the right. some of his personal texts are in fact very critical of then presidential candidate donald trump. his texts are also critical and profane and snarky toward hockey. and bernie sanders and loretta lynch and eric holder and lots of other people besides, not to mention his swearing tirades against the cheating mother iffing russians. the only active political figure he expresses he positive feelings about appears to be john kay sish. okay? he was involved in the initial stages of the investigation because he was the lead counter intelligence agent at the entire fbi. when that investigation came under the purview of the special counsel robert mueller very quickly removed strzok from the special counsel investigation staff as soon as he found out strzok expressed personal opinions in his personal texts. that happened last july, long before any i

>> peter strzok said quote, those text-messages are not indicative of bias. really? inspector general said, they are indicative of a william willingness to take official act of impact of a presidential process. lou: inspector general found 3 specific incidences like that. >> right. lou: gregg jarrett thank you. >> good to see you. lou: up next two blue tones of air force one may be replaced by something different, president trump has a vision, don't go away element much element we'lly expch more stay with us. still a chance here. it's willingham, edge of the box, willingham shoots... goooooooaaaaaaaallllllll! that...was...magic. willingham tucks it in and puts the championship to bed. sweet dreams, nighty night. as long as soccer players celebrate with a slide, you can count on geico saving folks money. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. pressure, what pressure? the players on the... metastatic breast cancer is relentless, but i'm relentless too. mbc doesn't take a day off, and neither will i. and i treat my mbc with new everyday

peter strzok was cia director john brennan's liaison. >> to believe peter strzok, when he was speaking without any thoughts this would be found out that he wasn't telling the truth. now when he faces criminal liability he's telling the truth that he didn't mean anything he said. liz there are the president said the soft brexit deal will probably kill any deals between the united states and the u.k. >> we'll be dealing with the european union instead of the u.k. if they do that their trade deal with the u.s. will probably not be made. we have enough difficulty with the european union. we are crack down right now on the european union because they have not treated the united states fairly on trade. liz: the markets started to go down and turned around when president trump and theresa may said they will have a bilateral trade deal. president trump: she'll make a decision on what she is going to do. the only thing i ask of theresa is make sure we can trade without any restrictions. we want to trade with the u.k. and the u.k. wants to trade with us. >> there will be no limit to us doing tra

i'm kind of flattered. >> one small point in the peter strzok e-mail. he mentions there is a difference between the version that you had and another version that the fbi had. what was that difference? >> yeah. as if that really matters. i got the -- a set of documents, you know, shortly before the election. the buzzfeed set that came out in january 2017 included memos that steel kept writing after the election that i never saw until the buzzfeed version came out. so there is one really big difference. buzzfeed has more because they obviously got the set of memos at a later point. what that means, i don't know. it certainly doesn't tell you that the deep state was doing anything notorious. >> correct me if i'm wrong, but i think we just proved how easy it is to get at the truth of these situations if you are willing to ask the right person the right question. >> yeah. but we don't want any of that, lawrence. what we want is to figure out how devilishly david corn could manage to both give the fbi the dossier and get the dossier from the fbi. we also have

>> strzok. stuart: strzok was guilty. >> waiting to hear from peter strzok. stuart: that's unusual, you don't hear of interference or eruption of hearings from the right. almost always the left. >> and some members say we want those out and apparently chairman goodlatte said no. >> i'm not sure on other side of the aisle. stuart: wait a second. peter strzok, let's take it please. >> so help you god. thank you, let the record show the witness answered in the affirmative. mr. peter strzok is a deputy assistant director of the human resources division of the fbi. mr. strzok has worked at the fbi for approximately 22 years, prior to his current assignment, he was a deputy assistant director in the counterintelligence division. it was his assignment in that division that brings him before the committees today as we continue our investigation. you're written statement will be enter into the record in its entirety and ask you summarize your testimony in five minutes to help you stay within that time, there is a timing light on the table and the light switches from g

kennedy: so much more to discuss with peter strzok's testimony. thomas massie is on the oversight committee. what did you think? >> i was there for three hours of it. i think the biggest takeaway happened when i yielded five of my minutes to jim jordan. he connected the dots in a way that has never been made apparent until today. that is this is false narrative out there that the fbi just came into possession of this dossier, this fake dossier somehow through media leaks or circuitous path. but what jim jordan did by talking to peter strong. and he had to consult his lawyers multiple times on whether he could answer this. it showed the dossier went from nellie ohr to her husband bruce ohr who worked at the doj directly to the fbi. this was straight from fusion gps to the deep state. there was no intermediary. kennedy: several democrats tried to bring up the trump-russia connection. i can't remember how it was. at one point i completely glazed over. but it was a democrat talking about the hotel meeting as though that were the biggest refer laying a

bombshell from peter strzok. we'll have analysis of the raucous hearing from a top lawmaker, rudy giuliani and more. and a bombshell from john soloman that the fbi may have received multiple versions of the russian dossier. mr. soloman will be here to explain. and across the pond, president trump is in england tonight and we'll have footage of what the british folks really think about this president. and michelle malkin joins us about an interview that president trump gave to a uk newspaper. but first when a trump hating fbi investigator struck out. that's the focus of tonight's angle. barnum & bailey would have been proud. there may not have been elephants or jugglers or trapeze artists flying through the air. but for hours and hours and hours today, former fbi investigator peter strzok was walking a tight rope that republicans desperately tried to knock him off of. >> you're asking us to believe when you say tv trump and stop trump and impeach trump those are personal beliefs and when you say those things, you

peter strzok should be ashamed of himself. every fbi agent dino wants to see him get drummed out of the bureau. the problem with the dossier is. they like fake news. we have a deal with fake news. it also led to a wiretap. it led to a national intelligence wiretap. ed led to evidence. ed led to evidence that was in the minds of stroke and other people when they continued investigation of trump how much is in getting in the way? that is why i think the investigation is totally phony. >> laura: every time i read to that. one line. he said, these are texts. he kind of blew it all off. >> rudy: it means i have a certain set of things i will do to stop this guy as a lot last resort. it doesn't mean that it wasn't illegal. it was clearly illegal, that is why he is lying about it. >> laura: do you believe that the president and his meeting on monday with vladimir putin, will he be able to be as open, effective, as focused with a relationship with russia? with all that stuff out there floating? >> rudy: there are a lot of differences

embattled fbi agent, peter strzok, is about to give his opening remarks. first time we will all hear from him publicly. he is the man at the center of those anti trump text messages. we'll bring you his testimony as soon as it begins. >>> breaking news this morning. department of justice has reopened the investigation of the murder of emmitt till, lynched in mississippi in 1955 after being accused of whistling at a white woman. it sparked outrage and prompt the civil rights movement. the brothers were acquitted, and then later confessed. they are now dead. but what is this new information that has led department of justice to reopen the case? >> poppy, we don't know. department of justice saying they have reopened this case because of new information, but because this is an ongoing investigation, officials are not willing to share with us what that information is. we're just learning of this today. but members of congress were actually informed that this case would be reopened back in march when department of justice submitted a report to them that they su

it is not the democrats role to defend peter strzok. he is doing aim mickable job of that over the next five hours -- trish: do you believe him? do you believe him? >> absolutely i believe him. more importantly -- trish: i'm not biased at all? didn't mean anything? >> more importantly i believe that the independent ig report that was a year-and-a-half in the making of professional department of justice people, republicans in fact leading that charge, that investigate this and cleared that of any political bias. >> you know what though? trish: that and something i i can sell you -- >> year-and-a-half, 500 pages, trish. >> if you're willing to believe there is no bias in this, i have oceanfront property in st. louis i love to sell you. >> it will be under water pretty soon. trish: kevin, think you're being a little naive. i think it is very clear how a lot of people felt about this president when he was running for office. >> sure. trish: a lot of people in d.c. felt that way. a lot of people in the fbi felt that way. we know that because

peter strzok's damning text messages. they have decided that peter strzok's text messages have made him part of an apoplectic campaign. they're snarky towards hillary clinton and bernie sanders and loretta lynch and eric holder and lots of other people besides not to mention his swearing tirades against the cheating mother fing russians. the only active figure he expresses any positive feelings about is john kasich, okay? but strzok was involved in the initial stages of the investigation because he was the lead counter intelligent agent at the fbi. when this came under the purview robert mueller removed him from the special counsel staff as soon as he found out he expressed personal opinions in his personal texts. that happened last july. republicans have nevertheless seized on peter strzok. they think they're going to use him to make the whole russia investigation look so terrible that maybe they can get the whole thing shut down altogether or something. a couple of problems with that strategy which we are going to see i

the actual manager was peter strzok. he was not a rangen file agent and he was not a trump supporter. he said blank trump, impeach trump, trump supporters smell. to say agents are conservative while the guy is prosecuting trump and giving a path to hillary clinton. you gloss over that fact as thought it's meaningless. you are really good at it. i'm impressed. >> the fact that is being glossed over is hillary clinton is not president because of the actions of the fbi. judge jeanine: that's baloney. philippe, stop. the only reason is jim comey went out and mouthed off is because the southern district nypd was going to turn him in for not doing anything on the laptop of the dirt bag anthony weiner. why is the mueller investigation, only a 48 approval where last moisture was 55. the american people aren't buying this anymore. >> as much as dan wants to compliment plea for the job i do. you guys are fantastic. you pelt mueller every single day. i respect the effectiveness of protecting the king. look at mueller's timeline. th

and peter strzok said he meant we, as in the american people. we will stop it, he meant by voting. >> that is totally not believable. no, totally not believable. he was having a private one-on-one discussion with that through his texts. he was not referring to the american people, i'm totally convinced of it. further, a week later, he had to the same individual, lisa page, a text where he was talking about the insurance policy, which obviously ties into the same thing. he was bound and determined -- look, this whole thing is about fbi corruption and not only corruption and bias that existed, but killingness of certain individuals within the fbi, peter strzok being one of them, use his status and his position to try to impact the election itself. not being honest in these answers. melissa: what do you think, what is the outcome, what is the result, what is the benefit of what happened today? because a lot of people will look at it and see evidence of what they already believed before it started? >> i mean that is the problem when you have a witne

what a mess. >> even though it was peter strzok in the hot seat. what struck me, there were two more powerful players in that world working to protect peter strzok having to answer any questions. one was the fbi. there was a lawyer who sat behind him the entire time directed him not to answer anything that had to do with the russia investigation. this is the fbi continuing to obstruct congressional oversight. and the other were democrats with a whole new strategy for shutting down oversight. interrupt and call points of order. jesse: this an actual strategy. they get in there beforehand and say when something gets to the heart of what the republicans are getting at, and it's starting to look really dicey for peter strzok, we'll start screaming, calling for order, saying all kind of ridiculous things and causing mayhem to distract and prevent punches from being land. but you mentioned before about these lawyers sitting in the background. he was asked, are you biased, are you biased? he said i'm not biased. the republicans said prove that you are not

how do you think peter strzok did in defending himself and did he help or hurt the agency? >> as an analyst i'll leave it up to the american people to make up their own mind as far as who they believe but an important calculus, an ingredient we have to look at is credibility. when you look at peter strzok sitting before congress, this is someone who has proven what we know, that fbi agents are human beings and not infallible. this is someone that few would question he exercised bad judgment in the decisions he made but the question came down to was what he did politically motivated and did it impact the election? the inspector general said although we're undecided as far as the political calculus, it doesn't appear that impacted the investigation. that was the key point. the second of which being this was his opportunity to finally speak for himself. he's been caricatured, lambasted by the president, house republicans over the course of many months so the american people got to see and hear from him. what is interesting alisyn, is when you compare him, the person sitting at

this is peter strzok's words. i was one of a handful of people who knew the details of the ongoing investigation into donald trump and his campaign on russia and i didn't consider leaking it to the press, using it politically when lots of people inside the f.b.i. were leaking. it is an interesting situation to think about he knew damning information about donald trump and never went to the press. >> bill: do you see the possibility it can be explained away? >> i think we should give him a chance to do that. a long career in law enforcement and f.b.i. his text messages were stupid but as morgan said he is allowed to have personal opinions and we should give him the chance in this hearing to answer questions, to ask him questions in a fair way and give him the chance to answer and if then the answers don't make sense, then we can have a conversation. but let's not just jump to our partisan right versus left and automatically assume if we're republicans we don't like him and if we're democrats we do. let's look at th

what about peter strzok? he didn't come out as might have been expected -- contrite, very sorry about what he did. and, remember, it was his texts that got him in all this trouble. instead he came out swinging. >> this isn't just me sitting here telling you. you don't have to take my word for it. at every step, at every investigative decision, there are multiple layers of people above me, the assistant director, executive assistant director, deputy director and director of the fbi and multiple layers of people below me, all of whom who were involved in all of these decisions. they would not tolerate any improper behavior in me any more than i would tolerate it in them. that is who we are as the fbi, and the suggestion that i in some dark chamber in the fbi would somehow cast aside all of these procedures, all of these safeguards and somehow be able to do this is astounding to me. it simply couldn't happen, and the proposition that that is going on, that it might occur anywhere in the fbi deeply corrodes what

peter strzok wants to move past this. there's still questions that need to be answered going forward. i think that's going to continue on and these investigations are going to continue. we'll see more testimony perhaps from lisa page here also. >> we'll be watch requesting cover it. >>> when we come back the fire hearing on capitol hill comes days before donald trump's face-to-face meeting with putin.

we're talking about peter strzok. he was fired from the russia investigation by the special counsel robert mueller after he was caught sending anti-trump texts to an fbi lawyer he was having an affair with. republicans believe the texts prove strzok was biased against trump while investigating possible collusion, but strzok has been defiant. he has been defensive throughout all of this. i want to get immediate reaction from all of this. gloria borger, you're among our experts. you've been listening to every word said over these past three hours or so. it got really, really tense. >> well, it was really tense and very partisan. you had in mr. strzok a very defiant person who said, look, just because i sent these texts saying we'll stop trump doesn't mean that i conducted any investigation any differently than i would have otherwise. i mean, the charge from the republicans is that they believe it is clear that he was in a rush to clear clinton and then go after donald trump. his response to that is, you know, these were

peter strzok said it but you mentioned carter page. if carter page was an agent of foreign power, why is he still running around with no charges, james? no charges. >> its been two years now, and as you mentioned, a lot of black marker redactions in these documents but one thing that does come through is it appears the dossier was central to it and when they weren't relying on the dossier they were appealing to the authority of yahoo news without pointing out that that was a steele story as well in terms of the source, now why do they continue to say that steele is credible after they even acknowledge in their re applications that he didn't do as he was told and sharing information with the media? that's a question so i think this is another argument for the president to declassify everything, get it out there. enough of the applications, let's see the fisa applications, what are known as the woods notes where the fbi goes through and figures out what they can put in the document. maria: and the editorial board with an op-ed on that as

>> peter strzok and congress. congress made the mistake of cross-examining asking one question too many, allowing him to say we will stop it, who won, the american voters. >> americans lost across the board. that's the big conclusion in all this. i don't know how the united states benefits from anything that happened yesterday. >> david, let you end this with was it putin who won and what about in the united states? what about in that hearing room yesterday, who won the day? >> i saw only losers. i don't think even vladimir putin had a good day. this is a sad spectacle. snapshot of america in 2018 and not effective. >> eugene robinson, we'll be reading your column entitled trump administration on kidnapped children. someone should go to jail. where are they, by the way. thank you both. still ahead. thousands of protesters are gathering in london as president trump holds talks with theresa may. looking similar to the size of his inaugural crowd, with a baby trump blimp. we'll talk to former adviser for prime minist
