WATTERS We ve also ░░░░░░░░ surveillance footage Primetime wants ░░░░░░░░ see who went in ░░░░░░░░ out of the library ░░░░░░░░ cubby area and outside ░░░░░░░░ Situation Room We deserve ░░░░░░░░ You deserve answers They ░░░░░░░░ t want to give ░░░░░░░░ the answers And that ░░░░░░░░ why the FBI hijacked ░░░░░░░░ investigation But we re ░░░░░░░░ going to give up ░░░░░░░░ Primetime got Paul Pelosi ░░░░░░░░ DUI tapes We didn ░░░░░░░░ stop then we re ░░░░░░░░ going to stop now ░░░░░░░░ s turn it over ░░░░░░░░ Stuart Kaplan he s ░░░░░░░░ former FBI agent Stuart ░░░░░░░░ the FBI gets involved ░░░░░░░░ something like this what ░░░░░░░░ that tell you KAPLAN ░░░░░░░░ of all Jesse thank ░░░░░░░░ for having me Let ░░░░░░░░ put some context The ░░░░░░░░ Division of the Secret ░░░░░░░░ the United States Secret ░░░░░░░░ and non uniformed division ░░░░░░░░ exclusive jurisdiction to protect ░░░░░░░░ White House That s ░░░░░░░░ interior of the White ░░░░░░░░ its property and the ░░░░░░░░ and goings of the ░░░░░░░░ House Now it s ░░░░░░░░ plausible and I do ░░░░░░░░ that when they recovered ░░░░░░░░ white substance that obviously ░░░░░░░░ was field tested with ░░░░░░░░ to it already they ░░░░░░░░ knew that it was ░░░░░░░░ It s clear that ░░░░░░░░ would send it probably ░░░░░░░░ the FBI laboratory to ░░░░░░░░ a confirmation But once ░░░░░░░░ confirmation came back there ░░░░░░░░ only one or two ░░░░░░░░ why then the FBI ░░░░░░░░ continue being involved in ░░░░░░░░ investigation And one the ░░░░░░░░ would bother me more ░░░░░░░░ let s talk about ░░░░░░░░ first one It s ░░░░░░░░ the United States Secret ░░░░░░░░ through watching the video ░░░░░░░░ and developed information or ░░░░░░░░ that one of their ░░░░░░░░ may have been assisting ░░░░░░░░ bringing in cocaine on ░░░░░░░░ regular basis to maybe ░░░░░░░░ someone who doesn t ░░░░░░░░ it then I can ░░░░░░░░ that the United States ░░░░░░░░ Service would elicit or ░░░░░░░░ the FBI s assistance ░░░░░░░░ conducting interviews and the ░░░░░░░░ States Secret Service potentially ░░░░░░░░ say there may be ░░░░░░░░ conflict of interest The ░░░░░░░░ one given the landscape ░░░░░░░░ certainly after seeing the ░░░░░░░░ today may be more ░░░░░░░░ than not Under the ░░░░░░░░ order 12333 which gives ░░░░░░░░ FBI exclusive jurisdiction and ░░░░░░░░ powers to investigate our ░░░░░░░░ security domestically maybe the ░░░░░░░░ States Secret Service realized ░░░░░░░░ the FBI realized if ░░░░░░░░ come on board and ░░░░░░░░ make this a national ░░░░░░░░ investigation that then cloaks ░░░░░░░░ entire scenario in secrecy ░░░░░░░░ means that your freedom ░░░░░░░░ information request and everybody ░░░░░░░░ s request we will ░░░░░░░░ ever see the light ░░░░░░░░ day of ever knowing ░░░░░░░░ what happened because the ░░░░░░░░ will fall back on ░░░░░░░░ breach of national security ░░░░░░░░ then it is cloaked ░░░░░░░░ secrecy and we will ░░░░░░░░ know really truly who ░░░░░░░░ responsible for bringing in ░░░░░░░░ cocaine and who ultimately ░░░░░░░░ responsible for being in ░░░░░░░░ of that cocaine because ░░░░░░░░ FBI and rightfully so ░░░░░░░░ respect to national security ░░░░░░░░ can take that posture ░░░░░░░░ And that posture would ░░░░░░░░ ridiculous and a cover ░░░░░░░░
