LOOKING INTO A WIDER CAMPAIGN UP TO WHEN ROBERT MUELLER WAS NAMED SPECIAL COUNSEL. THIS COMES AS MUELLER FACES NEW SCRUTINY OVER POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST IN HIS INVESTIGATION. HE FORGOT HE WAS ACTUALLY APPLYING FOR A JOB. FORMER CHAIRMAN OF THE HOUSEOVER SIGHT COMMITTEE FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND AUTHOR OF POWER GRAB, THE BEST SELLING BOOK, JASON CHAFFETZ. JASON, SO WHAT DOES IT MEAN THAT DURHAM SAYS I'M EXPANDING IT AND I'M NOT GOING TO PROBABLY RELEASE IT UNTIL NEXT YEAR? >> IT'S REALLY BAD NEWS FOR PEOPLE LIKE MR. BRENNAN WHO WAS THE DIRECTOR OF THE CIA. I THINK MR. CLAPPER ALSO HAS SOMETHING TO ANSWER FOR. THE FACT THAT HE IS EXPANDING THE PROBE MEANS THERE IS SOMETHING REAL THERE. AND NOW HE HAS BEEN LOOKING AT THIS FOR MONTHS ON END NOW. THERE IS A LOT MORE INFORMATION OUT THERE. THE TIMELINE IS INTERESTING. TO SAY THAT HE IS GOING TO TAKE SO LONG TO PUT IT OUT THERE. I THINK THEY ARE TIRED OF ALL THIS SPECULATION OF WHEN HE IS GOING TO RELEASE OR WHEN THEY ARE GOING TO CHARGE PEOPLE. IF YOU SET THAT DATE WAY, WAY OUT IN ADVANCE, THEN YOU CAN EXCEED THOSE EXPECTATIONS. I THINK IT'S THE EXPECTATION GAME. I WOULD SUSPECT HE WOULD COME OUT MUCH SOONER THAN THAT. BRIAN: I WOULD THINK IF HE HAS THE MOST EXPENSIVE REPORT POSSIBLE. IF PRESIDENT TRUMP IS IN HIS SECOND TERM OR THERE IS ANOTHER PRESIDENT, IT'S NO -- IT'S GOING TO HAVE MINIMAL INTEREST EVEN THOUGH IT WILL HAVE IMPACT TO THE PEOPLE INVOLVED. >> THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN I MEAN LITERALLY IT COULD HAPPEN TODAY AND MOST PEOPLE SUSPECT IT WILL BE NEXT WEEK IS THE HOROWITZ REPORT. THIS WILL BE THE THIRD REPORT THAT IS OUT THERE. THE BATTLE THAT'S GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES FROM SEVERAL PEOPLE I HAVE SPOKEN WITH IS TO WHAT DEGREE IS IT CLASSIFIED. LAST TIME ONLY SEVEN WORDS OR SO THAT WERE REDACTED. THIS ONE COULD BE AS MUCH AS 10 OR 20% OF THE REPORT REDACTED FOR LEGITIMATE CLASSIFICATION CONCERNS. BUT HOROWITZ' REPORT BY ALL EXPECTATIONS IS GOING TO BE A BOMBSHELL. IT REALLY IS. BRIAN: IT'S GOING TO BE INTERESTING. MEANWHILE, I WAS STRUCK -- THERE WASN'T MANY MEMORABLE MOMENTS FROM THE MUELLER TESTIMONY BUT THIS STUCK OUT WITH ME. WATCH. >> SO YOU DON'T RECALL MAY 16TH, 2017, THAT YOU INTERVIEWED WITH THE PRESIDENT REGARDING THE FBI DIRECTOR JOB? >> I INTERVIEWED WITH THE PRESIDENT AND. >> REGARDING THE FBI DIRECTOR JOB. >> IT WAS ABOUT THE JOB BUT NOT ABOUT ME APPLYING FOR THE JOB. >> YOUR STATEMENT HERE TODAY IS THAT YOU DIDN'T INTERVIEW TO APPLY FOR THE FBI DIRECTOR JOB? >> THAT'S CORRECT. BRIAN: NOW THERE WAS A REPORT HE WAS, INDEED, APPLYING FOR THE JOB. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR SOMEBODY WHO IS A SPECIAL COUNSEL WHO JUST GOT PASSED OVER FOR A JOB BY THE PERSON HE IS INVESTIGATING? >> WELL, IT MEANS IF YOU GO BACK AND LOOK AT PRESIDENT TRUMP'S TWEET THAT HE PUT OUT. THE PRESIDENT WAS 110% RIGHT. PEOPLE MOCKED HIM FOR IT. PEOPLE SAID HE WAS WRONG. BUT NOW THE DOCUMENTS ARE SHOWING THAT HE WAS EXACTLY RIGHT. AND, LOOK, THE SPECIAL COUNSEL WAS PROVIDING WHAT ENDED UP BEING BOGUS INFORMATION. I DON'T THINK HE IS GOING TO BE PROSECUTED FOR IT. BUT WHEN YOU CLEAR THE AIR TRUMP WAS RIGHT AND MUELLER WAS WRONG. BRIAN: ASK YOURSELF ANY LEVEL SMALLEST OR BIGGEST COURT. DO YOU WANT SOMEONE INVESTIGATING YOU WHO YOU JUST SAID IS NOT WORTHY OF THE JOB THAT WAS OPEN.
