that is james comey's name in james comey signature. so why did james comey as head of the fbi know what the heck was going on in his own organization and why would anyone allow him to use that as an excuse. it is a convenient excuse after the fact that is played dumb. but given that plain dumb on wall street is not allowed, why is it being allowed inside the butt way. bottom line what this tells you our government is willing to protect investors more than it's willing to protect average citizens. after all, shouldn't the head of the fbi be held to the exact same standard of the head of any other organization including publicly traded ones? when this is all said and done, once we get into impeachment trial in the senate i suspect americans will have a tough time letting james comey off the hook. the fbi should be there to protect us not to infringe on our rights as citizens and pretend they did not know any better. meanwhile, the fisa court itself coming out with a rare public statement slamming the fbi for its handling of the applicati

ed: i will get to james comey. i can't miss the fact in kevin's report, he had adam schiff obviously chairman of house intel, should be overseeing fisa process, other matters. for part of this he was ranking matter not chair of intel saying i was unaware fisa was being abused. how is that possible? >> it is not possible. i was absolutely shocked when i watched the interview with jim comey over his total lack of a sense of accountability for himself as the top dog, as ceo. so he is, he was one who was in direct line. schiff has oversight responsibility. he can say whatever he wants. i don't believe much what he says but jim comey, he was there. his sense of accountability gives you a little bit of insight of how he ran the fbi. it explains a lot of things. that he doesn't have much very ascy and much credibility at this point. ed: let's play a clip because he talked about the issue whether he is taking responsibility or not. to be fair to him, since you raised it, let's hear from james comey. we'll talk about it. >>

the ceo in the real world cannot pull james comey. you cannot play stupid and blame the system. anymore you can read that and figure out it was a foreign sourced opposition research and james comey wants us to believe that he and his colleagues were that stupid. and somehow he trusted the system too much? come on. not that the whole boy scout team. there's no way he was that naÏve. so let me state the obvious and set the record straight tonight. bias had to be in play, you don't screw up 17 times, you don't miss obvious questions like where did this thing come from, should we make maybe flag it for the judge, the odds of 17 major mistakes like that all in a row, a mathematician computed this went in is probably worse than if you were to flip a coin and get heads or tails 17 straight times, the odds of that one and 135,000, james comey isn't incompetent nor is he stupid, he is just bias. joining me now conflict to the president kellyanne conway, so good to see you. >> dew point a couple overused washington words, i'll call it a bombshell. comey was forced to going to be intimate

why would james comey do is a that? it's like he didn't think you had the internet and couldn't read the report for himself. maybe he's so used to being treated as untouchable he believed that he was. but in end as always happens the reality intruded. the i.g. report didn't actually vindicate james comey. instead it revealed frightful abuse of power for the f.b.i. that he ran that should terrify americans left, right and center. ing specter general horowitz summed it up on capitol hill. watch. >> we identified significant inaccuracies and omissions in each of the application. seven in the fist application. total of 17 by the final renewal application. >> tucker: one omission that could be a mistake. it happens. 17 of them? that is not a mistake. that is either malice or gross incompetence or combination of both. either way it's not reassuring. in the end, someone as beloved by the news media as james comey had to answer for the 17 omissions. over the weekend, comey appeared on fox. he said this about the i.g. report. >>

james comey telling fox news. the way hig he handled this was wrong. >> i was wrong, i was over confident in procedure that fbi and justice built over 20 years, it is hard to get a fisa, i was over confident in those, he is right there was real sloppiness. david: at least he went that far. fox news senior judicial analyst judge andrew napolitano, you have been warning us about fisa courts for years. how do you fix this, if at all? >> i think fisa at the core is unconstitutional, it authorizes judges to issue search warrants. under 4 amendment, on a standard less than what constitution requires that problem one much number two, i was happy to hear jim comey acknowledged he was wrong, fbi never, ever, ever, ever, add as many evers as you want, they never admit they are wrong. fisa issues 99.97 percent of all requested search wa warrants, fi agents have become corrupted in a sense they know they can be sloppy, there is no defense lawyer to challenge them. there is -- the judges accept what is presented to them, uncri

in a moment we'll talk to former fbi director james comey for his take. first jim acosta is at the white house right now. jim, the president has been pretty clear in trying to mischaracterize what was just published in this report. >> reporter: that's right, anderson. the white house, president trump and even top officials over at the justice department have essentially been trying to say, you know, don't read this report from the inspector general. they're essentially saying nothing to see here. a statement from the white house press secretary earlier this afternoon, i can't read all of it because it's filled with a lot of inaccuracies that go against what's in this report. but it says the shocking report from the inspector general shows than out of control fbi under president obama and former director james comey. it ends by saying the american people should be outraged and terrified by this abuse of power. anderson, the inspector general report as you were just mentioning a few moments ago said that there was no political bias that influenced this inve

joining us now, former fbi director james comey. director, welcome to "fox news sunday." >> thanks for having me. chris: you have been taking something of a victory lap since the i.g. report was released earlier this week. the question is whether or not it's justified. here are you and the inspector general, michael horowitz answering the same question. >> do you think this is vindication? >> it is. i mean the fbi has had to wait two years while the president and his followers lied about the institution. finally the truth gets told. >> does your report vindicate mr. comey? >> it doesn't vindicate at anyone at the fbi who touched this including leadership. chris: the i.g. says you should feel no vindication. >> maybe turns upon how we understand the word. what i mean is, that the fbi was accused of treason, of illegal spying, of tapping mr. trump's wires illegally, opening an investigation without justification of being a criminal conspiracy to unseat, defeat and unseat a president. all of that was nonsense. i think it's really impor

well, president trump hinting at jail time for james comey after the former fbi director admits he was wrong for the fisa process, comey appearing on fox news just days after the inspector general report was released detailing 17 mistakes the fbi made when applying for the warrant. >> he's right, there was real sloppiness, 17 things that should have been in the application, discussed or characterized differently, he's right, i was wrong. heather: president trump tweeting, quote, from now comey is admitting he was wrong, wow, but he's only doing so because he got caught red handed, he was actually caught a long time ago, so what are the consequences for his unlawful conduct, could it be years in jail, where are the apologies to me and others, jim? well fox news contributor trey gowdy says admission of mistake in his department mean absolutely nothing after all we know now. >> sometimes it's better late than never and sometimes it's too damn late, two years too late, we could have use his objectivity, head of the fbi helping republicans instead of obstructing us. he said it was a policy

in a moment we will discuss that in an exclusive interview with former fbi director james comey. but first, let's bring in kevin corke with the latest from the white house. kevin. >> reporter: chris, trey deals with canada and mexico, even china and a major domestic policy victory on paid family leave. normally each would be a headline in its own right, but the release of the long-awaited ig report and of course a party line vote on impeachment overshadow them all. >> today is a solemn and sad da day. >> reporter: it went as expected. at 23-17 party line judiciary committee vote charging the president with abusing the power of his office over the ukraine scandal and obstructing house democrats' attempt to investigate him for it. the move now sets the stage for a full house vote this week or democrats currently hold 233 seats and would only need 216 votes. while new fox poll and suggests the nation remains split on impeachment with no change since early october. the majority of those surveyed believe he did abuse his power. >> the impeachment is a hoax, it's a sham. >> the preside

. >> james comey has done more damage to the fbi than anybody since j. edgar hoover, and you've got a mountain to climb. if you got to come to the judiciary committee and prove to us that you will change the culture of the fbi. some people need to be fired and some people need to go to jail for what they did. and, the day of reckoning is coming but it's not here yet. be one comey was doing a victory wrap on monday. let me talk about christopher wray, he has not shown any urgency, he has not shown the urgency that's needed to get to the bottom of this and resolve this. i will tell you why it's personal. my mother was a prison guard and worked a 16 hour shifts for years and years. my father was a family court probation guy, he worked to jobs. little-known fact about sean hannity, 19-20, i was appointed to the new york police academy. no idea why they even approved me. two members of my family, they were fbi guys. one of them is still alive today and he is more angry about this for all the hard work and risks he has taken for his country. and this is what i

d5 so start with james comey. he was taking an unnecessarily nonprofessional victory lap here when there were some real lapses of judgment within the bureau that he was in charge of. >> lapses of judgment, that's one way of putting it lightly. james comey is a self righteous smug egomaniac and he needs to go crawl in a hole with a bunch of lawyers. and you saw derm come out with an announcement yesterday when the ig report hit because he disagreed with the conclusions around the predication of this entire investigation. this ig report was an indictment of the steel dossier. you know the dossier that hillary clinton's campaign paid for. it's a dossier that turned this entire country upside down for three years. that report was the most devastating report that i have ever read. there were 51 violations, 17 false statements, there were tremendous abuse and james comey should not be taking a victory lap when the fbi created tremendous pfizer abuse. kennedy: it's not about him, it's the structures that are in place tha

kennedy: that's a really good.and i hope we've seen the last of james comey. because his little boy scout shield has completely evaporated, democrats hate them, republicans can't stand them, i don't know where the james comey goodwill is. >> i think it's extremely dishonest of him to die on the hill saying i don't know if the steele dossier really mattered. it was a turning. kennedy: the ig said the steele dossier really mattered. >> look the supreme court said when you look at frank versus delaware, when you remove a piece of evidence as a liar and a mission you don't have a probable cause, you throw the whole thing out. and that's what should happen here. kennedy: that's interesting because the president has stated for him to be kind of silence on the courts report and he should stay that way. just because this could actually help him, and help voters say wait. why are we impeaching him again? of course the house is set to vote on the articles of impeachment of the president as early as wednesday. as you can imagine everyone in congress is on the same page g

james comey was the second-worst fbi director in history only to j. edgar hoover. he is given a hoover has run for his money. he has really distinguish himself for stinking at that job. >> bret: speaking of said former fbi director, here is a throwback from "special report," april 2018. >> bret: when did you learn that the dnc and the clinton campaign had funded christopher steele's work? >> isolate on that for a fact. >> bret: what do you mean? >> i've only seen that in the media. my understanding is the activity was begun, that steele was hired to look into, first bonded by republicans, then picked up -- the important thing was, picked up by democrats opposed to donald trump. >> bret: did you want to know who it was funded by? >> i wanted to know what i knew, it was funded by people politically opposed to donald trump. >> bret: in the report, fbi and department officials told us the steele report push the fisa proposal over the line in terms of establishing probable cause. fbi leadership supported relying on steele's reporting to seek a fisa order t

"the new york times" called it "ugly, secretive, system for carrying out national security surveillance on american soil." referring to what happened to carter page. matt taibi wrote "if the report constitutes a clearing of the fbi, never clear me of anything. what a clown show the trump-russian investigation was." matt taibbi at rolling stone. tonight, kash patel along with his former boss devin nunes vindicated in this report. what he was saying and was vilified for saying all along. also tonight, karl rove and juan williams. lawmakers are fine-tuning the president's articles of impeachment. jesse watters is here as well. a special maxine waters addition of "wednesdays with waters." first i am joined by trey gowdy. always good to see you. great to

>> i think james comey's bravado is going to be very short-lived. i think when you read this report, even a summary with the 17 inaccuracies and omissions, et cetera, he's going to be in for a very rocky road when it comes to john durham's investigation. attorney general barr says he's actually dissatisfied with the conclusion. there are so many things in this that bother me so much. for instance, paul manafort was under investigation. why didn't somebody tell candidate trump that the campaign manager he was electing was under investigation? why did not candidate trump tell that there was a counterintelligence probe of his campaign. why didn't they tell? they're resetting treasury prep. why did they tell the species is job of telling judge that the steele dossier is a not aware of the source, the agent of the divorce is it was like a jaw dropper. we didn't know that they were paying for it. why would you not want to know that? >> they thought they had the president of the united states by the short hairs. they thought they had them in a counterintel

one of the first questions ask asked, is this vindicating of james comey? michael horowitz says this is not syndicate anybody who had nothing to do with the fisa. it was good, he's a democratic appointee, sober and understated. to lay out the case of all the wrongdoing done throughout the entire step in the process of surveilling carter page, i just want to make another point. i want to say that electronic surveillance, wiretaps, human informants, overseas intelligence assets is not spying. typically find someone like horwitz to use the legal term of surveillance for the rest of us can acknowledge that is expiring. >> bret: where does this going to we get john durham which will not come until spring or summer and in the middle here, as you look on capitol hill, the house marking up articles of impeachment, starting at the top of the hour here. this process goes on and we have this hearing. what does it all put together? >> they are going to not affect each other for the moment. going to impeach the senate, dismiss it, everyone's going to move on. but i thin

there were 17 errors by the fbi, james comey struggles to take responsibility even though he was head of the fbi during this time. the martyr aspects he is putting out nobody is buying it anymore so james comey, enjoy the non-spotlight of 2020. heather: the president of district media group. rob: tom sire taking aim at pete buttigieg. >> 37 years old, you understand this is the number one issue in front of us. rob: the issue that has this billion are boiling over. >> is a hermit head? carley: you do not want to miss this. at christmas time to or is sure to get you in the holiday spirit. ♪ rob: tom stier blasting pete buttigieg for not being aggressive enough on climate change. >> why don't you have a better climate stand? your 37 years old, your of the generation of people who understand this is the number one issue in front of us. that to me is an absolutely critical question to answer. rob: the billionaire in last thursday's debate, stier has made climate changes signature campaign issue. buttigieg has not responded to his comments. jillian: amazon getting called out about shockin

s report somehow exonerated comey from misconduct allegations. >> former fbi director james comey said this week that your report vindicates him. is that a fair assessment of your report? >> i think the activities we found here don't vindicate anybody who touched this. lou: wow. joining us is kimberley strassel. member of the "wall street journal's" editorial board. let's start with this report. why do you believe that michael horowitz went to such extraordinary efforts not to find that there was political bias in this -- in all of this, and in fact while at the same time reporting much of that bias later in the report. >> i think it's important we be clear what what he did and didn't do. too much of the media is misrepresenting this. he went to great effort to say he didn't find documentary evidence. he didn't find a memo from andy mccabe saying operation take out donald trump on formal letterhead. but that's different from whether he found personal bias which he went out of his way to put in the report, in particular text messages between lisa page and peter strzok which came within

what kristin was talking about there, the james comey interview over the weekend. what was your day? people said they were surprised by how much he said he didn't remember or didn't know. >> i agree with that. he gets credit for doing the interview and he gets credit for saying he was wrong about one thing at least, which was that the fisa process wasn't as robust as he previously claimed. beyond that it seems to me he still tried come anyway he could to exonerate himself in the senior leadership of the fbi. it did not do that, i think we know more about how slippery he can be. they did well to get that confession and hooray for chris and hooray for you for the previous interview you did which elicited some of the information about comey that was clearly not true. >> bret: it's been a lot of information. the other interview on "fox news sunday" was adam schiff. the chairman now in the house intelligence committee. here he is talking about his response to devin nunes in this report about the fisa process. >> i'm willing to admit that the inspector general found seri

fired fbi director james comey says criticism of the probe was all lies. the washington post op-ed rights, quote, there was no illegal wiretapping, there was no, quote, spying on the trump campaign but republicans say the implications of fisa abuse cannot be ignored. >> if you accept it was proper predication for starting this by january they should have stopped. they didn't stop. heather: william barr is calling the fbi investigation intrusive saying it is based on the thinnest of suspicions, he will testify about the findings tomorrow. rob: the report exposing the fbi's leaning on the steel dossier despite the cia expressing doubts about its reliability. jillian: byron york explains why this evidence could be the most damning. >> there is a giant disconnect because we are seeing reports that the trump investigation was legally justified, there was political bias involved and there is this devastating list of mistakes or errors that all go in one direction, against the president. the information about the dossier is devastating. what we learned is the dos

while we welcome this moment, the justice is not all pretty here is the former fbi director, james comey incapable of rationalizing all of his lies and certainly any of his humerus. >> he's right, i was wrong, i was overconfident in the procedures that the fbi injustice had built over 20 years. it was a real sloppiness, 17 things that should've been in the application or discussed and characterized differently, it was not acceptable. i don't believe the fbi concluded that steals reporting after talking to a substitute race. as a director of 38000 people you cannot run an investigation that seven layers below. lou: not able to rationalize all of it, with us tonight in part to celebrate the first years of the term presidency is commerce secretary wilbur ross, the new dhs secretary chad wolf white house special advisor to the president, tony saia quizzes, matt gaetz and the president of judicial watch. they are here to consider the radical dems to confront the truth not only a president but a historic president and the american people. joining us tonight is tom the president of judicial wat
