[Hannity] Giuliani on IG report: Mueller should suspend investigation

[Ubiquitous]

SEAN HANNITY, HOST: All right. Welcome to "Hannity."

Welcome to Singapore. It is 9:00 a.m. here, 9:00 p.m. in Washington, D.C.


And the long awaited inspector general's report is out. We have been waiting
18 months for this. And, in fact, we have the full report that the inspector
general has put out, these findings.

This is a serious night in some ways. They are so important and so
consequential, there's no way I was going home and potentially being in the
air when they were released. So, we're at the equator in order to bring you
our comprehensive coverage that nobody else in the media frankly will give
you, instead of getting stuck on that flight.

Now, look, here's what we did tonight. It's over 560-some-odd pages. We
enlisted a team of experts to review every one of them. That is Michael
Horowitz's review into literally what is disgusting misconduct,
insubordination taking place at the highest levels of the FBI and Department
of Justice and the Obama administration. We're going to show you all of the
crucial findings.



We have Sara Carter, Gregg Jarrett. We have the great one, Mark Levin, Judge
Jeanine Pirro, Rudy Giuliani. They will all help us break this down tonight.
An episode of "Hannity" you cannot afford to miss, so much to get to.

Let's get right to it. It's time for tonight's extremely important I.G report
opening monologue.

(MUSIC)

HANNITY: I think it's important before we get into the contents of this
report that we're all going to break down in the course of this hour. It's
very important to understand something. This is sadly a swamp document.

Now, the swamp always protects the swamp, unfortunately, and in reality,
before we even get started, let me just remind you of something I said last
night. The facts in this case are not in dispute. The evidence is
overwhelming and convertible.

Hillary violated the Espionage Act. That's a fact. She mishandled. She
destroyed classified-top secret special access programming information. It's
a fact.

She deleted 33,000 subpoenaed emails. She acid washed her hard drive with
Bleach Bit so they couldn't get facts. And she had aides destroy her mobile
devices with hammers also a fact.

Here is another fact: Kristian Saucier spent a year in prison for, what, six
pictures on a cell phone at a submarine that he was proud he worked on. He
never shared it with anybody. So, in terms of severity, it doesn't compare to
what we know Hillary Clinton did.

Now, we also know that Comey and Trump hater Peter Strzok started writing her
exoneration in early May of 2016. That's a fact. They will didn't interview
her until July 2nd, 2016, and then July 5th, they exonerated her.

And we know they pulled the legal definition of gross negligence, they pulled
it right out of document. They pulled out in one of their earlier writings in
this that, in fact, foreign intelligence services had hacked into that
bathroom closet, all a fact.

Every single American tonight -- you should be shocked. You should be
disappointed. You should be concerned about what we're learning. We're
talking about abuse of power and corruption at the highest levels of the FBI,
and how the FBI was politicized. It's all true and we have a lot of new
evidence we'll share with you tonight.

And I want to be very clear at the start. I'm not talking about rank-and-
file FBI guys. I'm not talking about them. I predict by the time this story
ends, they will end up being the heroes when they're finally subpoenaed and
allowed to testify and tell their stories about what they saw their bosses
were doing.

And tonight, we'll highlight the stark difference between two investigations.
You get the white glove special treatment for Hillary Clinton and then the
heavy-handed tactics all in against Donald Trump. It should shock you. If you
believe in equal justice under the law, equal application of our laws and our
Constitution.

Now, with Hillary Clinton, everyone was given immunity. With Donald Trump,
it's search warrants, subpoenas, breaking down doors at, you know, 6:00 a.m.,
guns ablazed. The hatred of Donald Trump from the left and the media in this
country knows no bounds. There really was a scheme to protect Hillary Rodham
Clinton from being indicted and smear and slander then- candidate, then-
President-elect Donald Trump and now president at all costs.

Now, the contempt for you, the American people, the thing that some of these
people said about us, you, the American people is repugnant, it's appalling.
It shouldn't happen in this country.

Now, to the report. As I just said, it's findings confirm pretty much
everything we have been telling you here on "Hannity" for months and that
many in the media have ignored.

We have Trey Gowdy summed it up very well. He said, quote: I am alarmed, I am
angered and I'm deeply disappointed by the inspector general's findings of
numerous failures by the DOJ and FBI in investigating potential Espionage Act
violations by the former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Without further discussion, here's what Gowdy is talking about. First and
foremost, we start with disgraced former FBI Director James Comey. Now,
President Trump fired Comey for mishandling the Clinton server investigation
among other reasons. He deserved to be fired.

Tonight, the president is vindicated. The inspector general finds in this
report James Comey's actions were both extraordinary and insubordinate. His
investigation into Hillary Clinton deviated from well-established department
policies.

Now, this includes Comey and other FBI agents allowing Clinton aide and
witnesses to the investigation, Cheryl Mills, to actually sit in during
Hillary Clinton's FBI interview, an interview that took place after Comey had
already drafted a letter exonerating Hillary of all charges.

And there's more. The report also finds that while investigating Hillary
Clinton for conducting official government business, with a private email
account, whoa, James Comey was also using a private email account to conduct
official government business.

And, by the way, Comey responded on Twitter writing, quote: I respect the DOJ
I.G. office, which is why I urged them to do this review. The conclusions are
reasonable, even though I disagree with some. People of good faith can see an
unprecedented situation differently. I pray no director faces it again.
Thanks to I.G.'s people for hard work.

Let's break this down. James Comey, the FBI director, went rogue. There is no
other conclusion. He broke longstanding department policy literally writing
the exoneration of Hillary Clinton before ever interviewing her or 17 other
key witnesses. Closed up the investigation.

And immediately the same people this hated Trump that we now know and we'll
prove it in more detail, the same people literally begin the investigation of
Donald Trump. Remember, they exonerated her way back in May. Interviewed her
July 2nd, July 5th -- oh, she is exonerated.

And we know people that committed the very same misdeeds as Clinton, well,
they were investigated and many put in jail. That's why Comey was fired and
should be investigated further. That's not all.

Now, we have even more evidence to show how FBI agents mishandled the Clinton
investigation. Let's go back to the I.G. report. Agents involved in the
Clinton Foundation investigation, get this: they were instructed to take no
overt investigative steps prior to the election. And the report also
confirmed that while the FBI was tiptoeing around their favored candidate,
Hillary Clinton, who they fully thought would win the election, Clinton's
private server was being accessed by foreign actors. Oh, that's something
else that they took out.

And, remember the FBI Trump-hating love birds, Strzok and Page, well, they
are back and they're back in a big way tonight. And, by the way, they're
heavily featured in Horowitz's report. When you see this, keep in mind,
Horowitz unbelievably, this is outrageous, did not find that bias impacted
the FBI investigation.

I'm sorry, Mr. Horowitz, you're wrong. Look at this newly uncovered text
message. The date, August 8th, 2016, Page exclaims: Trump is never going to
become president, right? Right? And Strzok responds, quote: No. No, he's not.
We'll stop it.

We'll stop it. In case you are wondering what Strzok is talking about, he's
making it crystal clear in this tweet from a month earlier in July of 2016.

Damn, this feels momentous because this matters. The other one did, too --
meaning the investigation into Clinton. But that was to ensure we didn't
bleep something up. This matters because this matters. So super glad to be on
this voyage with you.

And, of course, Strzok is talking about the impending Russia investigation
into the Trump campaign and comparing it to the Clinton investigation which
he tried so hard not to screw up because it was his effort to clear Hillary
Clinton of all charges so she could remain a candidate, the favored
candidate. Don't forget about the insurance policy that was referenced in
previous Page/Strzok texts, if in fact Trump won the election.

Now, it's important to also remember that all of this took place around
extreme levels of anti-Trump bias at the highest levels of FBI. Some of it
should shock the conscience. Page calling Trump an enormous D-bag and add
that the to list of insults both Page and Strzok were lobbying against Donald
Trump calling him an idiot, a menace, a loathsome human being and so much
more. And Strzok is the guy leading all of this investigation.

Then the report concluded about these texts, quote: not only indicative of a
biased state of mind, but even more seriously implies a willingness to take
official action to impacted the presidential candidate's electoral prospects.
Yes, that's political. Lisa Page, by the way, called Trump as we said before,
we won't go back to that.

And now, the I.G. found evidence of so much more bias among FBI officials.
For example, look at this message from one unnamed agent, quote: Trump
supporters -- by the way, that's you -- are all poor to middle class,
uneducated, lazy, POS, we know what that is, that think he will magically
grant them jobs for doing nothing.

On October 28th, 2016, shortly after Comey's letter to Congress, that
announced the reopening of the Clinton investigation, one unnamed FBI
attorney sent an instant message to a fellow FBI employee, look at this: I'm
clinging to small pockets of happiness in the dark times of the republic's
destruction.

And following the election, the same FBI attorney sent an instant message
that said, quote: I'm numb. With a fellow employee responding: I can't stop
crying.

Now, prior to the election in September of 2016, one FBI agent involved in an
instant message conversation where they attacked President Trump's
supporters, their words, not mine, I don't use it -- retarded.

And by the way, that's only the tip of the iceberg. I.G. is referred five FBI
employees for investigation after uncovering their extreme political bias and
get this: Horowitz's overall conclusion said no prevailing bias at the FBI
and its actions in the Clinton and Trump investigations.

Really, Mr. Horowitz? You don't see that as political bias? What do you call
everything you just reported? It's all political.

And look at this -- the I.G. report also found that FBI employees received
oh, free tickets to sporting events from who? The destroy Trump media, so-
called journalists. They went on golf outings with media refs. They were
treated to drinks and food by reporters.

Now, because of everything we just showed you, that report concluded the
Comey, Page, Strzok and others severely damaged the reputation of the FBI.

And here is what current FBI Director Christopher Wray said about all of
these damning findings. Take a look.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

CHRISTOPHER WRAY, FBI DIRECTOR: I take this report very seriously and we
accept its findings and recommendations. It's also important though to note
what the inspector general did not find. This report did not find any
evidence of political bias or improper considerations actually impacting the
investigation under review. The report does identify errors of judgment,
violations of or even disregard for policy and decisions that at the very
least with the benefit of hindsight were not the best choices.

We've already started taking the necessary steps to address those issues.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HANNITY: Director Wray, read the document. There is politics all over that
document and for you to say otherwise is not fair to the American people, nor
is it fair to all the good, honest, hard working FBI individuals rank-and-
file that protect us every day that you did rightly talk about today.

A good start? All right, Director Wray. Well, that would be firing Peter
Strzok. Why does he still have a job despite everything you just saw? Peter
Strzok remains on the payroll of the federal bureau of investigation? Are you
kidding me?

And meanwhile, the Obama administration was also featured in the report.
Footnote page 89. It reads, quote: President Barack Obama, he was one of 13
individuals with whom Clinton had direct contact using her Clintonmail.com
account.

That information breaks with Obama's initial claims that he learned of
Clinton's private email from the media reports. What were they protecting?
Remember they changed that to say, oh, a high ranking official.

And the attorney general at the time, Loretta Lynch, he was also taking to
task in the report for her now infamous tarmac meeting with Bill Clinton just
before they came to a decision in June of 2016. The report states, quote:
Lynch's failure to recognize the appearance problem created by former P
president Clinton's visit and to take action to cut the visit short was an
error in judgment. Yes. OK, 45 minutes talking about grandchildren, I'll buy
that.

But first, here is how Chairman Gowdy and Goodlatte, by the way, responded to
this entire report earlier today. Take a look.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

REP. TREY GOWDY, R-S.C.: What a dark day it is for the FBI and DOJ, two
institutions our country desperately needs. We desperately have to be able to
have confidence in them. And this level of bias and animus not only did they
want to stop the Trump campaign, he wanted to stop the Trump presidency.

(CROSSTALK)

BRET BAIER, FOX NEWS HOST: You are talking about Peter Strzok.

GOWDY: Peter Strzok, the FBI agent who was on Hillary Clinton's investigation
and arguably the lead Russia investigator, not only wanted to stop his
campaign but once he won, got on the Mueller probe because he wanted to
impeach him.

REP. BOB GOODLATTE, R-VA.: This report shows that there was special treatment
given to Hillary Clinton in the investigation of her case. There is not
standard procedures followed in investigating her and there was special
treatment given. There is no doubt that this was not proper process and the
report shows time and time again how Director Comey and others made mistakes,
errors in judgment were deliberate.

People can draw their own conclusions, but it was improperly handled.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HANNITY: Let me sum it up. Hillary Clinton committed felonies and she should
have been charged and these people ran interference for her. We have ample
evidence of bias corruption, politics, misconduct at the highest levels of
the FBI, the DOJ and now, the Obama administration, yet won't call this for
what it is Mr. Horowitz? You can't conclude the obvious bias impacted some at
the upper echelon of the FBI and their work and their so- called
investigation?

Why? Because that would taint the phony Russia co-collusion investigation. We
cannot have a two-tiered justice system in the United States of America, one
for the Clintons, one for Trump and one for everybody else. Three-tier
perhaps.

And while the findings of this report are important, we must now demand more.
This is a first step. There's got to be accountability. We have got to have a
better system of government or the very foundation of our rule of law in the
United States of America is in jeopardy.

Joining us now, President Trump's attorney, former New York City mayor, Rudy
Giuliani.

Mr. Mayor, before you took on this position you had on this program
identified crimes. I think it is extraordinarily relevant how the upper
echelon in the FBI treated Hillary Clinton so she could survive without being
indicted as a candidate. And how they have treated Donald Trump and I do
believe this impacts whether or not the Mueller investigation at its
foundation, considering it's the same people involved now should all go away
as a result.

RUDY GIULIANI, PRESIDENT TRUMP'S ATTORNEY: Sean, you're absolutely right. I
was on your show about a year and a half before the election. We identified,
I think it was 18 violations of the law by Hillary Clinton, none of which
Comey and his fix (ph) were able to prove and it's disgraceful.

But we're way beyond Hillary Clinton. We now have an investigation in the
words of President Donald Trump from the very beginning has been a fix, a
frame-up and a witch-hunt. It was led by Peter Strzok, who -- it is
disgraceful and even for the present director of the FBI to have him there
tomorrow would be disgraceful.

Every FBI agent should demand that that man be fired and tomorrow, Mueller
should suspend his investigation and he should go see Rod Rosenstein, who
created him, and the deputy attorney general and Attorney General Sessions
who should now step up big time to save his department should suspend that
investigation, throw out all the people that have been involved in the phony
Trump investigation and bring in honest FBI agents from the New York office
who I can trust implicitly and they should turn their attention to Comey,
Strzok, Page, all those FBI agents who took gifts -- gifts, Sean? That's
called bribery where I come from.

They took tickets to games. They put Governor McDonnell in jail. The angry
Democrats who were working for Mueller, they put Governor McDonnell in jail
for taking a couple little trinkets, FBI agents selling out and leaking like
sieves and statement of Strzok, we're going to stop Donald Trump and he's put
in charge the Russia investigation. And the guy that should be the head of
this RICO case is Jim Comey, because he's the one who created this atmosphere
in the Justice Department.

He's the reason that Strzok was able to operate. Page was able to operate.
Those guys are taking tickets? FBI agents should be infuriated by that.

I'm infuriated because I love the FBI.

HANNITY: I don't want people, Mr. Mayor --

GIULIANI: These people don't love the FBI. I do.

HANNITY: Yes, and I was just going to say -- I want to make sure the American
people understand. This is not the rank-and-file. This was literally ripped
out of the hands of rank-and-file, brought into the seventh floor, the upper
echelon of the FBI.

I guess the most important thing here is, especially from your perspective
and the president's perspective, if you treat one candidate one way and you
literally have crimes and the evidence is incontrovertible -- I mean, I never
saw a better case for obstruction than Hillary did to subpoenaed emails.

GIULIANI: Yes.

HANNITY: Deleting, acid washing and breaking up devices.

If you're going to treat her that way, and you look at the bully tactics that
have been put together by Weissmann, in the beginning, Strzok and team
Mueller put together, how could any American at this point not see that that
is a dual system of justice and that is a risk to our entire constitutional
republic?

GIULIANI: I think, Sean, I feel that this whole thing has made fools of all
of us. I mean, they think we're idiots. We supplied 1.4 million documents. We
supplied 32 witnesses. No privilege arguments, and who are we supplying them
to?

People who have already concluded to frame Donald Trump agents, who started a
phony Russia investigation, that's the whole core of this. That's why the
investigation should be suspended. And I am talking for myself now, not the
president. But I believe he would agree with this.

Very serious investigation has to be done of the FBI agents at the very top
by FBI agents who are honest, in order to prosecute them.

(CROSSTALK)

HANNITY: Look at the hatred they have for American people, the hatred they
have and the love they had to Hillary. It's all there in black and white.
That's political.

Why did Horowitz say there is no evidence of political bias when it's all
over his document?

GIULIANI: I don't know. I don't know what Horowitz concluded. I don't know
what the FBI director concluded. I'm beyond that.

I think all the attention now should be focused on, let's get a fair
investigation of the people who corrupted that investigation, have been
engaged in that corrupt investigation from the beginning.

President Trump has said over and over again to me. I did nothing wrong. How
could this be?

Now we know how it is. Because, these people fixed it that's how it is.

Please, American people, read this.

HANNITY: Mr. Mayor --

GIULIANI: Read this. If you're disgusted, and you don't demand the Justice
Department begin this investigation and suspend the one of the president and
all the people that had been tortured by it, then I don't think we have
justice anymore in this country.

HANNITY: Last point. Rod Rosenstein, we now know in meetings, has threatened
to subpoena emails, intimidate, harassing congressmen and their staffs who
have been tasked constitutionally with the duty of oversight. You know about
these threats.

He is the guy that signed the last FISA warrant, knowing that the bulk of
information --

GIULIANI: Yes, right.

HANNITY: -- was the phony Clinton paid for dossier and he is the guy that
recommended firing Comey. So, he's conflicted.

But intimidating and threatening, to use the power of the Justice Department
against congressmen and their staffs, what do you call that? To me, it sounds
like obstruction.

GIULIANI: Yes. It's a lot more -- it's a lot clearer obstruction than firing
Comey on his recommendation, which is not obstruction. It's within the
president's Article II powers.

So, I believe that Rod Rosenstein and Jeff Sessions have a chance to redeem
themselves. And that chance comes about tomorrow. It doesn't go beyond
tomorrow.

Tomorrow, Mueller should be suspended and honest people should be brought in,
impartial people to investigate these people like Strzok. Strzok should be in
jail by the end of next week.

HANNITY: All right. Mr. Mayor, thank you. We'll follow this story. Obviously,
(INAUDIBLE) a great lineup tonight --

(CROSSTALK)

GIULIANI: Let's see if he cooperates -- let's see if he cooperates on Comey.
Hah-hah!

HANNITY: Good point.

When we come back, we have Judge Jeanine Pirro, Sara Carter, Gregg Jarrett,
later on, the great one, Mark Levin. The I.G. report is out and it's worse
than we thought.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

GOWDY: Chris Wray, I'm sorry you're wrong. Chris, there are consequences. The
consequences are that your fellow citizens questioned whether or not they can
have confidence in the world's premier law enforcement agency and that's
coming from someone who defended them a lot throughout his career. This was a
bitterly disappointing report.

Peter Strzok said that the vote should be 100 million to zero. He can't think
of a single solitary American that should vote for Donald Trump to be
president. He said he will stop it as a candidate. He talked about
impeachment once he won.

Strzok, you come before Congress, you come before the American public and
prove to us that your manifest animus towards Donald Trump did not affect
your decisions.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HANNITY: Oh, we'll stop him. And if he wins we have an insurance policy and
also, let's see, I'll impeach him. That was House Oversight Committee
Chairman Trey Gowdy reacting to the release of the DOJ I.G. report.

Here now with details -- wow -- this really brings in some light to Jeanine
Pirro's new book, "Liars, Leakers and Liberals: The Case Against the Anti-
Trump Conspiracy", Judge Jeanine Pirro. And author of the upcoming book, look
at this title, "The Russian Hoax: The Illicit Scheme to Clear Hillary Clinton
and Frame Donald Trump", FOX News legal analyst, Greg Jarrett. And also,
investigative reporter, FOX News contributor Sara Carter.

You have been with us from the beginning. I am blown away at how much hatred,
animus, bias, and frankly abuse of power we're seeing here.

SARA CARTER, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR: It's incredible.

HANNITY: And the hate for American people is wow.

CARTER: It's incredible. This is certainly an indictment of the culture of
the FBI. What was happening at the FBI from the highest level to the seventh
floor all the way down to the people that were involved in this
investigation. But certainly not an indictment of all FBI agents, Sean.

I think one of things look at is he was very clear, Horowitz, in this report
that although he didn't find documentation, it did cast a cloud over the
entire investigation and because of the extraordinary bias.

HANNITY: I'm not buying that I didn't find political bias because it's all
over the --

CARTER: No, no. There is political bias all over that report. And it should
--

HANNITY: Kimberley Strassel says they're misinterpreting, if you look deeper
--

CARTER: That's right.

HANNITY: Meaning, they didn't write it all out. Oh, do this because -- but
they really did.

CARTER: Kimberley has a very good point there if you look at this report now
there's over 500 pages so we can't say every single page I've read. But if
you look throughout the report there is extraordinary bias. We saw it in
Peter Strzok, Lisa Page.

This is fruit of the poisonous tree. There is something that Rudy Giuliani
said that's very important here. The beginning of the special counsel
investigation, the investigation into Trump was tainted and in all cases
should probably end right now.

HANNITY: That's the big legal story. Let's go to Greg Jarrett. I think that's
the legal point that the mayor is making, considering the circumstances, they
exonerate Hillary. They gave her the Cadillac treatment, Donald Trump comes
in and it's banging down doors and subpoenas and everything they didn't do
for Hillary.

GREGG JARRETT, LEGAL ANALYST, FOX NEWS: Yes. And James Comey is at the
forefront. But his reputation today is absolutely in tatters, his integrity
has been shredded. I mean, the I.G. found that he not only mishandled the
Hillary Clinton case, he broke rules, violated policy, exceeded authority
usurped the power of the attorney general. And he was engaging in rank
insubordination.

Now the I.G. says and the media, the liberal media has been seizing on this
well, we can't prove that his political bias influenced his decision through
testimony or documents. Well, of course you can't. Nobody is going to confess
verbally that they cleared Hillary Clinton for political reasons. Nobody is
going to put their crimes in writing but the evidence is there. It is
inexorable.

HANNITY: Yes. Judge Jeanine, I know you have strong feelings about it but I
want to stay focused on this. When they exonerate Hillary in May, let's stay
on the time line. Comey and Strzok is at the forefront of it. Strzok is the
one that interviews Hillary. Strzok is telling Page everything that he hates
about Donald Trump. We will stop him, among -- and then, of course, we have
an insurance policy and then later we'll impeach him.

And then he becomes the heart and soul almost immediately thereafter of the
Russia, quote, "investigation" if you even want to call it that at this
point. I do not think that any fair-minded objective discerning person cannot
see that these are the wrong people starting this under the wrong
circumstances with abusively biased and corrupt opinions and I would argue a
lot of illegality in all of this.

JEANINE PIRRO, HOST, FOX NEWS: Well, you know, Sean, the question is not was
there, you know, hate and bias. We already know there was hate and bias. And
someone who has been a prosecutor and who's been a judge, I can tell you that
the question is not is there hate and bias. We already know there is. Anyone
with any common sense knows this.

The question is, given the hate and bias, what are we going to do about it?
And the inspector general's report does nothing but white wash a series of
facts that are so corrupt, so biased and so anti-Trump that you have to step
back and say or I do is this the America that I devoted 30 years of my life
to? I believe in the system. I believe in justice. I believe in the FBI but
tonight--

(CROSSTALK)

HANNITY: Judge Pirro, I don't know--

PIRRO: -- I have to question everything that we read.

HANNITY: -- you can't believe in it.

PIRRO: Of course you can't believe in it. And let's assume this, Sean. Let's
assume that they came out and said, he violated the rules, Comey, and you
know, he made mistakes and errors in judgment. How would you like it if every
judge said to a defendant you know what? It was a mistake in judgment. Keep
going. It doesn't happen that way for ordinary Americans. This is about it.
This--

(CROSSTALK)

HANNITY: Let me ask both of you a quick legal question before I go back to
Sara. Does this now make a strong, compelling and definitive case that the
Mueller probe and I always said look at the -- you know, Clinton donors that
he hires. He couldn't find one independent to put on his team? Any team that
would put Andrew Weissmann on it with his atrocious track record was always
suspicious.

But he also put this Trump hater Peter Strzok on it who we know the fix was
in for Hillary then he began with enthusiasm as evidenced by the text message
I just put up there. Does this now taint the entire Mueller investigation and
should it be suspended as of tomorrow by the attorney general and by Rod
Rosenstein who I also have big problems with tonight?

JARRETT: Absolutely.

HANNITY: Right.

JARRETT: Because Peter Strzok, Lisa Page and now we learned today yet another
FBI lawyer was involved in all three of these. The Clinton e-mail case, the
Trump-Russia collusion case and the special counsel probe. And it taints it
all.

(CROSSTALK)

HANNITY: very quick answer, judge.

PIRRO: And, Sean, what have you here is someone was anti-candidate Trump,
anti-President Trump. And now is in a position where he jumps on Mueller's
team to deep six Trump. Any judge worth his or her assault would dismiss a
case like this in a second.

And it is time for Jeff Sessions to put on his big boy pants and do what he
is supposed to do as the attorney general of the United States of America. Or
else don't, you know, don't--

(CROSSTALK)

HANNITY: Sara, last word.

CARTER: We still have -- we still have another report before an intelligence
surveillance act report that we're expecting Horowitz.

HANNITY: That another 18 months away?

CARTER: Yes.

(CROSSTALK)

PIRRO: But going to be another 18 months away but, no. I don't know.

CARTER: It doesn't matter at that point.

HANNITY: All right. We got to roll. Thank you all. By the way, Judge Jeanine
is in as I try to make the 24-hour track back to Eastern Time because it's
still 9.35 a.m. here in Singapore.

When we come back, the great one, Mark Levin I hear is he a little worked up
over this. Just a little. He will weigh in next.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

HANNITY: All right. Joining us now he is the host of CRTV's Levin TV and the
host of Life, Liberty, and Levin, the number one show right here Sunday night
10 p.m. I call him the great one.

Well, great one, I look at this, the part of me, and I know how much you love
the Constitution. You have dedicated your entire life to studying our
Constitution, writing about our Constitution, talking about it.

And I read this, and I see an America that doesn't remind me of the one our
founders put together but a two tiered justice system. And I -- it breaks my
heart and we have a lot of work to do if we are going to fix this.

MAR LEVIN, HOST, FOX NEWS: I will tell you what I see as I went through this
mainly report here, I see several things. Number one, out of all the texts,
all the documents, all the e-mails that have been reviewed, do you know
what's interesting, Sean? There is not a single pro-Trump text. There's not a
single anti-Hillary text. There's not a single pro-Trump senior FBI official.
There's not a single anti-Hillary FBI official. This was a cabal.

And these people had as their purpose to interfere with a presidential
election. They interfered with this presidential election worse than the
Russians could say have ever dreamed of. And I'm not fan of Vladimir Putin
and the Russians. Let me tell you that.

James Comey's FBI, there was collusion. The media in this report appalling
giving gifts and tickets to sporting events and golf outings and exchange,
apparently for leaks. You have a culture of leaks at the FBI. The buck stops
with Comey. This is Comey. Comey disgraced. McCabe, criminal referrals. Have
you ever heard of an FBI like this.

You have obstruction. Jim Comey spent months trying to make sure that Hillary
Clinton was protected. You know why? Because if they had impaneled the
federal grand jury and played by the book, she would have been indicted. And
the Democratic Party would have had to have another convention and find
another candidate. They couldn't allow that they had to defeat Trump.

Comey insubordinate. Usurping the powers of the attorney general. The deputy
attorney general. The associate attorney general. Insubordinate. You have
collusion, obstruction, insubordination. It is absolutely unbelievable.

I want to get back to the media. The media which sings like a bunch of black
birds on a telephone pole. They move in one direction they all move in the
other direction. Now we know why. The media was working, much of the media
with the FBI. What the inspector general doesn't tell us for some reason
which media. Which reporters, which FBI agents. We want to know. And they
don't tell us.

Now, there is some recommendations that they have in this report. It was
hilarious. Chuck Schumer runs to the Senate floor to immediately defend Comey
except as it comes to Hillary Clinton and says and starts talking about the
report.

Chuck Schumer hadn't time to read this report neither did any of the other
Democrats running to the media. And they all sound the same because they all
have the same talking points.

Here's his recommendations, the I.G. We recommend that the department and the
FBI consider developing guidance that identifies the risks associated with
and alternatives for permitting a witness to attend the voluntary interview
of another witness.

That's already Department of Justice policy. What that means is that Comey
allowed the Clinton witnesses to collude. We recommend the department
consider making explicit, that except in situations for the law requires to
permits disclosure and investigating agency cannot publicly announce its
recommended charging decision prior to consulting the attorney general.
That's already Department of Justice policy.

We recommend that the department and the FBI consider adopting a policy
addressing the appropriateness of department employees discussing the conduct
of uncharged individuals in public statements. That's already Department of
Justice policy.

We recommend that the department consider providing guidance to agents and
prosecutors concerning the taking of overt investigative steps, indictments,
public announcements or other actions that could impact an election. That's
already Department of Justice policy.

I will tell you what, I watched this FBI Director Wray have his press
conference and learned exactly nothing. And one of the things he did that I
found very troubling to me said is he look, one of the things we're going to
do to fix this and we're already on it, we're going to have very significant
training of all of our agents, new agents, senior agents, all thousands of
agents that they need to be unbiased in their investigation.

And I thought to myself they are unbiased in their investigation. The vast
majority of the FBI is unbiased in investigations. Why are you trashing your
own agency? The problem isn't Joe FBI agent or Sally FBI agent. The problem
is Jim Comey. The problem is McCabe. The problem is Strzok. The problem is
Page. The problem is that whole crowd.

And I found it incredibly outrageous that the new FBI director, once he's a,
I'm defending the FBI. It's a great institution and I happen to know it is.
But on the other hand, everybody needs to be trained not to be biased?

This report, even though the I.G. says he didn't find political bias, I have
to say there is bias throughout and he uses the word throughout, but I would
ask the inspector general what kind of bias are you talking about racial
bias, sexual bias; religious bias? Of course it was political bias.

As I started out by saying, there is not a single pro-Trump text from any of
these FBI agents. There is not a single pro-Trump FBI agent. They are
supposed to be objective. But they have politicized it to such an extent and
the reason, the reason is as I said they had to protect Hillary Clinton
because she would have and should have been indicted.

So, Hillary, I saw your little tweet today, kind of thinking well, see, even
Comey used his personal e-mail for government business, but Hillary, you
violated the Espionage Act and Jim Comey protected you, you could very well
be in an orange jumpsuit today and I'm quite, quite serious that you aren't
and you should thank God for that.

HANNITY: Great one, Mark Levin. By the way I have a mutual from a mutual
friend, Billy says, wow, tell Mark, great rant. He's on fire tonight. Thank
you, sir. And it's serious, Mark. You are right. She belongs in jail. Life,
liberty, and Levin Sunday night. Number one show on cable every Sunday night
10 Eastern here on Fox.

When we come back, Dr. Sebastian Gorka and Jason Chaffetz on how this anti-
Trump media reacting to all of this and much more. Stay with us from
Singapore. It's 9.46 a.m. Hope you're doing well.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

HANNITY: Your Democratic friends, your corrupt media, they have been rushing
to spin and deflect from the I.G. reports, devastating revelations. Watch
this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

GLORIA BORGER, CHIEF POLITICAL ANALYST, CNN: The inspector general could not
have been more clear about the fact that he says there was no conspiracy here
within the FBI.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I expected the sledge hammer. We just got the same kind of
hammer you used to nail on a painting on the wall. I don't -- I didn't - - I
was surprised at how mild it was.

REP. ADAM SCHIFF, D-CALIF.: No political bias influenced the decision-making
at either the FBI or the Department of Justice.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: The decisions described in the report all helped Donald
Trump win the election. All the errors were in Trump's favor.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HANNITY: All of those people are just liars political hacks, just spinning
away. They don't tell you the truth and they don't care.

And here's now with reaction, Fox News national security analyst, Dr.
Sebastian Gorka, Fox News contributor Jason Chaffetz. Dr. Gorka, we'll start
with you. Your reaction in all of this.

SEBASTIAN GORKA, NATIONAL SECURITY STRATEGIST, FOX NEWS: Well, disgusted at
all the details of the low level stuff, you know, buying somebody a meal to
get a leak from them at the FBI. But at the end of the day it's a 560- page
cover-up. There's no real there-there. It doesn't get us to the point at
which we have people perp walked out of the FBI and the DOJ for slow rolling
and undermining an investigation of a real crime, Hillary, and then trying to
undermine a political candidate and his administration, Donald Trump.

HANNITY: At the end of the day, and when you look especially at the text
messages and these revelations, Congressman Chaffetz, I look at it and this
is what I see. I see the people at the highest levels, FBI, DOJ doing
everything possible to prevent Hillary from going to jail, they did not
enforce the rule of law with her.

And then literally took a sledge hammer and started this witch-hunt
investigation against Trump and they never stopped swinging the sledge
hammer, which tells me we don't have equal justice under the law under this
FBI director, under that last administration. And I think this is just the
beginning. Not the end.

JASON CHAFFETZ, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR: No. Look, I really do believe that the
American people understand that there is a white washing of what happened
when Hillary Clinton's e-mail server. There was not a serious investigation
there. They never went after. They didn't -- the report points out that they
never went and got all of the actual hardware that was out there.

Hillary Clinton was out there, you know, destroying all the evidence. There
was never a serious investigation from the FBI. And I disagree with Sebastian
Gorka. This is the prequel. Yu got to understand that the I.G. also has an
investigation going into what's going on with the FIA abuse investigation in
the Russia investigation.

HANNITY: But congressman. I don't want to go there. Here's the problem.
Hillary Clinton should have been in jail. If they treated her like Kristian
Saucier, she would have been indicted. And you had all of these people we've
talked about tonight protecting her.

CHAFFETZ: Yes.

HANNITY: Preventing her from getting the treatment every other American would
get.

CHAFFETZ: And that's highlighted in this report. We now have hundreds and
hundreds of pages of documentation, the manipulation of the media, it was an
indictment of the media as well. I think the referral to the Office of
Professional Responsibility will bear fruit. That takes time to play out
given the rules that they have to do.

HANNITY: Should Hillary be charged based on what we know?

CHAFFETZ: She should have been charged -- she should have been charged a long
time ago.

HANNITY: Yes.

CHAFFETZ: Absolutely.

HANNITY: And they protected her.

CHAFFETZ: Yes.

HANNITY: And now they are going after Trump the same people that protected
her.

GORKA: Horowitz is too close to Comey. This is not what the American people
expect. This is not justice.

HANNITY: All right. When we come back, more "Hannity" as we wrap up from
Singapore. That's next.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

HANNITY: All right. There's beautiful Singapore. And we wanted to stay to
make sure we got at least tonight and on the I.G. report. Let not your heart
be troubled. Judge Jeanine will have more. We'll have more on Monday when we
get back. It's our last show in Singapore. I want to take time to thank
everybody.

Give yourselves a big hand. You did a great job. Thank you, as always, you
make this show possible. You made us number one in cable news. Thank you for
listening to the radio show, watching us, TV show, watching our friend Laura
Ingraham standing by. This is important. We're going to get to the bottom of
it and there's going to be a huge follow-up on the FBI rank and file talk.
Let not your heart be troubled. There she is, Laura Ingraham.

Dems & the media want Trump to be more like Obama, but then he'd
have to audit liberals & wire tap reporters' phones.
