  • NOW BACK TO "HANNITY."

  • >> Sean: RIGHT NOW, FOR MORE

  • REACTION ON TONIGHT'S BIG

  • BREAKING NEWS THAT THE INSPECTOR

  • GENERAL HOROWITZ HAS SUBMITTED

  • HIS FISA REPORT FOR

  • CLASSIFICATION REVIEW TO THE

  • DOJ, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR FORMER

  • CONGRESSMAN TREY GOWDY.

  • YOU FIRST SAID -- AND I'LL GET

  • TO THIS IN A SECOND, THAT THE

  • IDEA THAT NOW McCABE, THEY

  • PASSED ON ANY SPECIAL TREATMENT,

  • BUT IT WAS A WHILE AGO THAT

  • REPORT IDENTIFIED THE INSPECTOR

  • GENERAL REPORT IDENTIFIED HIM AS

  • A LIAR AND A LEAKER.

  • AND YOU SAID IT'S A CELEBRATION

  • OF OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM.

  • NOW, WE HAVE THE SECOND MINOR

  • REPORT.

  • THAT WAS COMEY LACKING CANDOR.

  • BUT THAT DIDN'T RESULT IN --

  • WELL, IT DID RESULT IN A

  • REFERRAL, BUT IT DID SEEM LIKE

  • THEY'RE MOVING FORWARD.

  • WHY IS THIS TAKING SO LONG.

  • WE'LL GET TO FISA NEXT.

  • BECAUSE I HAVE SOME CONCERNS

  • ABOUT WHAT THE OUTCOME WILL BE.

  • >> UH YOU KNOW, SEAN, THERE WAS

  • A TRIAL IN DC, WHAT, LAST WEEK?

  • AND FORMER WHITE HOUSE COUNCIL

  • GREG CRAIG WAS FOUND NOT GUILTY

  • IN WHAT WAS A REALLY QUICK JURY

  • VERDICT.

  • THESE ARE TOUGH CASES.

  • IT IS HARDER THAN IT MIGHT

  • APPEAR TO CONVINCE 12 PEOPLE OF

  • ANYTHING.

  • I USED TO HAVE TO DO IT FOR A

  • LIVING.

  • IT'S TOUGH.

  • YOU HAVE TO DOT EVERY I AND

  • CROSS EVERY T, IT'S MORE

  • DIFFICULT IF IT'S A HIGH-PROFILE

  • DEFENDANT.

  • SO IF THEY GO FORWARD WITH

  • McCABE, YOU CAN REST-ASSURED,

  • THAT'S GOING TO BE A TOUGH

  • TRIAL.

  • WE DON'T WANT THE UNITED STATES

  • GOVERNMENT GOING TRIAL AND

  • LOSING.

  • THEY LOST TO GREG CRAIG.

  • IF YOU'RE GOING TO GO TO TRIAL,

  • YOU NEED TO WIN.

  • >> Sean: YOU NEVER LOST A CASE

  • AS A PROSECUTOR.

  • THAT'S WHY YOU'RE SO GOOD AT

  • WHAT YOU DO.

  • HERE'S MY QUESTION.

  • WE NOW KNOW -- I CAN GIVE YOU --

  • AS IT RELATES TO FISA AND THE

  • INSPECTOR GENERAL REPORT, I KNOW

  • OF THREE SEPARATE TIME,

  • INCLUDING, BY THE WAY, THE UK

  • MEMO WARNING ABOUT STEELE'S

  • CREDIBILITY.

  • WE KNOW THREE SEPARATE INSTANCES

  • BEFORE THE FISA WAS SIGNED, THE

  • BULK OF INFORMATION WE NOW KNOW

  • IS THE UNVERIFIED DIRTY RUSSIAN

  • DOSSIER, LIKELY RUSSIAN

  • DISINFORMATION ACCORDING TO THE

  • NEW YORK TIMES FROM THE GET-GO,

  • BUT THEY WERE WARNED ABOUT

  • STEELE'S CREDIBILITY BEFORE THEY

  • SIGNED THE FIRST FISA.

  • THEY WERE WARNED BY BRUCE SWORD.

  • THE UK WAS WARNING ABOUT HIS

  • CREDIBILITY.

  • THAT STEELE HAD AN AGENDA, IT

  • WASN'T VERIFIED.

  • AND HILLARY PAID FOR IT.

  • THEY USED IT ANYWAY.

  • NOW WE KNOW IT'S UNVERIFIABLE,

  • BECAUSE STEELE NEVER STOOD BY

  • HIS OWN DOSSIER AND UNDER OATH

  • SAID I HAVE NO IDEA IF ANY OF IT

  • IS TRUE.

  • TO ME, THAT SEEMS LIKE

  • PREMEDITATED FRAUD ON FISA

  • COURT.

  • WHEN YOU COUPLE THAT WITH ANDREW

  • McCABE, THE DEPUTY FBI DIRECTOR

  • SAYING NO FISA WARRANT, THAT

  • MAKES ME THINK THEY DIDN'T CARE

  • ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE PRESENTING

  • TO THE COURT.

  • AND THAT WAS A FRAUD AND THEY

  • KNEW IT WAS A FRAUD, BUT THEY

  • SAID IT WAS VERIFIED AND IT

  • WASN'T.

  • >> LET'S ASSUME FOR THE SAKE OF

  • ARGUMENT THAT EVERYTHING YOU SAY

  • IS TRUE.

  • LET'S ASSUME THAT.

  • YOU STILL HAVE TO FIND A FEDERAL

  • STATUTE IF YOUR OBJECTIVE IS

  • INDICTMENT.

  • I'M VERY CLEAR EVERY TIME YOU'RE

  • GOOD ENOUGH TO HAVE ME ON, WE

  • CANNOT HAVE A SOCIETY WHERE

  • INDICTMENT IS THE ONLY THING

  • THAT CARRIES WITH IT ANY STIGMA.

  • MOST OF THE NAMES INVOLVED IN

  • THE 2016 HAVE BEEN FIRED OR

  • PUBLICLY CALLED TO TASK.

  • KEEP IN MIND, JIM COMEY TWICE

  • NOW, THE INSPECTOR GENERAL SAID

  • YOU DID NOT MEET OUR

  • EXPECTATIONS.

  • YOU FAILED TO FOLLOW POLICY.

  • YOU VIOLATED YOUR EMPLOYEE

  • AGREEMENT.

  • ALL OF THAT HAS TO BE

  • SIGNIFICANT.

  • LOOK, I USED TO MAKE

  • REPRESENTATIONS IN FRONT OF THE

  • COURT.

  • I TRIED TO BE HONEST AND FAIR

  • ABOUT IT.

  • BUT LET'S ASSUME I DIDN'T TELL

  • THE COURT SOMETHING.

  • THE REMEDY FOR ME IS NOT

  • INDICTMENT, THE REMEDY IS I MAY

  • LOSE MY LAW LICENSE.

  • THE REMEDY IS THE COURT MAY HOLD

  • ME IN CONTEMPT.

  • >> HERE'S THE THING.

  • IF I AM WARNED SOMETHING THAT

  • I'M ABOUT TO PRESENT IN COURT IS

  • FALSE AND AT THE TOP OF AN

  • APPLICATION OF MAKING IT TO THE

  • COURT, IT SAYS VERIFIED.

  • I TEST IT.

  • I SIGN IT, SAY IT'S VERIFIED AND

  • I'M WARNED THAT IT ISN'T.

  • WHEN THE FBI GOT INTO THEIR

  • SPREAD SHEET, THEY DISCOVERED

  • 95% OF THE DIRTY DOSSIER WAS UP

  • TRUE.

  • THAT'S LATER, THOUGH.

  • IF I KNOW --

  • >> IF IT'S ON A SPREAD SHEET.

  • >> IF I KNOW IT'S NOT VERIFIED

  • AND I PRESENT IT AS VERIFIED AND

  • IT'S UNVERIFIABLE, THAT WOULD

  • SEEM LIKE SEAN HANNITY WENT TO

  • THE COURT AND COMMITTED A FRAUD

  • IN THE COURT CONSCIOUSLY FOR THE

  • PURPOSE OF ACHIEVING A POLITICAL

  • AGENDA.

  • WHY DO I THINK TREY GAODY, AS

  • GREAT AN ATTORNEY AS YOU ARE,

  • NEVER LOST A CASE AS A

  • PROSECUTOR, THAT I WOULD GO TO

  • JAIL?

  • >> IF YOU'RE A LAWYER, YOU CAN

  • LOSE YOUR LAW LICENSE.

  • THE COURT CAN HOLD YOU IN

  • CONTEMPT.

  • >> Sean: IF YOU LIE BEFORE A

  • JUDGE?

  • WE'RE TALKING ABOUT LYING BEFORE

  • A JUDGE.

  • >> YOU'LL BE HELD IN CONTEMPT OF

  • COURT.

  • ABSOLUTELY.

  • YOU CAN GO TO JAIL FOR THAT.

  • I DON'T KNOW THAT LAWYERS WHO

  • MAKE FACTUAL MISREPRESENTATIONS

  • IN FRONT OF JUDGES WIND UP

  • GETTING INDICTED.

  • YOU'RE GOING TO GET PUNISHED.

  • YOU'RE GOING BE HELD IN

  • CONTEMPT.

  • YOU MAY BE GET SENT TO PRISON.

  • LOOK -- I'M NOT MINIMIZING

  • ANYTHING OF WHAT THEY'VE DONE.

  • WE'VE GOT TO ASK THE RIGHT

  • PUNISHMENT TO THE RIGHT OFFENSE.

  • >> Sean: BUT YOU'RE DENYING BY

  • SIGNING THAT AN AMERICAN CITIZEN

  • THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS.

  • YOU'RE LITERALLY USING THAT LIE

  • TO SPY ON A PRESIDENTIAL

  • CAMPAIGN AND TRANSITION.

  • >> WE IDENTIFIED THE STATUTE,

  • USING THE COLOR OF A GOVERNMENT

  • OFFICIAL, IT COULD BE A 1983

  • ACTION.

  • THAT'S ALL I'M SAYING.

  • WE HAVE TO MATCH UP THE CONDUCT

  • WITH A SPECIFIC CODE VIOLATION.

  • >> REGULARLY --

  • >> WITH AN VIOLATION.

  • NOW WE'RE GETTING SOMEWHERE.

  • >> I'LL SEND YOU GREG JARRETT'S

  • LIST.

  • HE'S IDENTIFIED A WHOLE VARIETY

  • OF CRIMES PERPETRATING A FRAUD

  • ON THE COURT.

  • >> DON'T SEND IT TO ME, SEND IT

  • TO BILL BARR.

  • NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT RIGHT

  • NOW.

  • >> DO YOU HAVE HIS E-MAIL.

  • I DON'T KNOW BILL BARR.

NOW BACK TO "HANNITY."
