was predcasion or evidence that donald trump had a relationship with the russian government. strzok is giving away the goods, there are some at the fbi that believe donald trump is a criminal and they will pursue this case as much as they possibly can and that bias and that desire to get trump no matter what that has colored a lot of six years at the fbi and until they are willing to do work above the board without political influence, we will have trouble like we have now in this case. >> carley: have to wonder how we got here with the fbi, an agency that should be unbiassed. matt whitaker, thank you for joining us.
