THEY WERE NOT ALLOWED TO DISCUSS IT BECAUSE IT WAS REVEALED TO THEM WHEN THEY WERE INSIDE THE ROOM THAT ONLY ALLOWS CLASSIFIED INFORMATION TO BE DISCUSSED SO NOW THE STORY IS OUT AND MANY, INCLUDING SENATOR RAND PAUL, HAS EXPECT OUTRAGE INC. USING INTEL CHAIRMAN SCHIFF OF SPYING ON DEVIN NUNES AND SAID I WOULD BE AN ABUSE OF POWER. THERE WAS SOME GLEE OVER THE SITUATION IN SOME CORNERS OF CABLE NEWS GRADE WATCH THIS REACTION. >> NUNEZ HAS PROBABLY HAD AND DESERVES ABOUT THE 24 HOURS OF HIS LIFE. HE HAS BEEN CABRIA LEE CAUGHT UP ON THE PHONE DIRECTORY HERE BUT WHAT WAS HE DOING TALKING ALL OF THESE PEOPLE? I MEAN IT'S LIKE PICKING UP THE ROCK AS I SAID IT AND SEEING THE BUG LIFE UNDER THE ROCK. ALL OF THESE PEOPLE WORKING TOGETHER, I MEAN, NEWNESS, AND GIULIANI IT, AND JOHN SOLOMON OF THE HILL, ALL WORKING TOGETHER IN ONE BIG NETWORK, ONE BIG SYNDICATE YOU MIGHT SAY. >> Martha: NOW, DEVIN NUNES, RANKING MEMBER OF THE HOUSE UNTIL COMMITTEE. YOU'VE BEEN ACCUSED OF A LOT OF THINGS LATELY, REPRESENTATIVE NUNES. THESE PHONE CALLS, TRIPS TO VIENNA THAT YOU SAY YOU CAN SUBSTANTIATE THAT YOU WERE NOT THERE -- WHAT IS YOUR REACTION? WHAT IS HER RESPONSE TO GREG MATTHEWS AND WHAT HE SAID ABOUT YOU? >> I'M A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO, I SAW CHRIS MATTHEWS IN THE LONG WHITE BUILDING, IT WAS LATE AT NIGHT, I THINK IT WAS THERE FOR SOME KIND OF MEETING OR RECEPTION, AND HE COULDN'T GET OUT. HE WAS BLOCKED OUT AND I HELPED WALK THEM OUT AND GOT HIM TO THE DOOR AND I'M A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED THAT HE THINKS THE LOWLY INEBRIATED LOOK, FOR THREE YEARS, I'VE BEEN SLOWLY UNRAVELING WHAT THE DEMOCRATS IN THE LEFT AND MOST OF THE PEOPLE IN THE MEDIA HAVE STARTED WITH THE RUSSIA HOAX AND THEY MOVED TO THE UKRAINE HOAX AND THAT WE HAVE BEEN VERY EFFECTIVE ADS TOUTING THEM ON THINGS LIKE THEY ARE THE ONES THAT PAID FOR THE DOSSIER THAT ENDED UP IN THE HANDS OF THE FBI. WE WILL FIND MORE ABOUT THAT NEXT WEEK. >> Martha: WE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT MORE OF THAT COMING UP BUT I JUST WANT TO STICK WITH THIS ISSUE RIGHT NOW. WITH REGARD TO THESE PHONE CALLS, I REMEMBER BACK AFTER 9/11, THE COLLECTION OF METADATA WHAT IS A VERY VOLATILE SUBJECT AND IN FACT, ADAM SCHIFF WAS AMONG THOSE WHO WAS VERY DISTURBED THAT TERRORIST WHO MAY HAVE CONVERSATIONS THAT COME INTO THIS COUNTRY THAT OVERLAP WITH THE CALLS OF AMERICAN CITIZENS AND THAT THOSE NUMBERS WOULD BE PICKED UP WITH A HUGE BREACH OF PRIVACY. SO NOW I'M WONDERING IF THAT'S TRUE, IF THOSE PRIVACY CONCERNS ARE SO PREVALENT BETWEEN TERRORIST AND POTENTIALLY SOME AMERICAN CITIZENS, WHY DID HE THINK THAT IT WAS OKAY IN THIS REGARD TO DIG INTO YOUR PHONE CALLS AND RUDY GIULIANI'S PHONE CALLS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN PHONE CALLS? >> IT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION. WE HAVE WORKED HARD TO TRY TO PROTECT PEOPLE'S CIVIL LIBERTIES AND AT ONE TIME, THE DEMOCRATS ACTUALLY MOSTLY OPPOSED THE USE ALONG WITH LIBERTARIANS IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. THEY WERE NOT MIKE OPPOSE THESE PROGRAMS SO THE FACT THAT HE WOU PROGRAMS SO THE FACT THAT HE WOD PROGRAMS SO THE FACT THAT HE WOA PROGRAMS SO THE FACT THAT HE WOT PROGRAMS SO THE FACT THAT HE WOA PROGRAMS SO THE FACT THAT HE WOL PROGRAMS SO THE FACT THAT HE WOY GET THESE PHONE CALLS AND THEN -- LOOK, I DON'T KNOW HOW HE EVEN HAS MY NUMBER AND WE ALSO HAVE TO REMEMBER WE DON'T EVEN KNOW MOST OF THESE NUMBERS BECAUSE WHAT HE IS DESCRIBING THESE NUMBERS TO OR NOT THE CASE SO I STILL HAVE TO EVEN GO BACK THROUGH MY PHONE RECORDS TO SEE IF HE'S EVEN TELLING THE TRUTH BUT THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THIS. RUDY GIULIANI KNOWS A LOT OF MEMBERS OF CONGRESS AND I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THERE ARE MANY MEMBERS OF CONGRESS, LIKE MYSELF, THAT SPOKE TO RUDY GIULIANI MORE THAN JUST A FEW TIMES. SO HE IS FRIENDS WITH HIM AND I KNOW -- >> Martha: LET ME ASK YOU THIS. I WANT TO HEAR WHAT DID YOU DISCUSS WITH LOVE HARNESS? >> I DON'T EVEN KNOW BECAUSE I NEVER MET HIM AND SO IT'S A GREAT QUESTION BECAUSE MANY PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW, INCLUDING MYSELF. SO -- >> Martha: YOU NEVER HAD ANY PHONE CONVERSATION WITH HIM? >> WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO CONFIRM THAT YET. >> Martha: YOU DON'T THINK YOU WOULD REMEMBER? >> YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER. YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER WE ARE THE HOUSE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE SO WE GET CALLS FROM PEOPLE EVERY DAY, ALL WALKS OF LIFE, I GET THEM FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD, ALLIES AND PEOPLE THAT AREN'T OUR ALLIES. IN THIS CASE, I JUST DON'T KNOW. >> Martha: ARE THESE FROM CELL PHONES OR YOUR OFFICE PHONE? >> WE DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT. >> Martha: SEE YOU DIDN'T HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AT THE PHONE NUMBERS THAT ARE ON THERE AT ALL? >> WE ARE SITTING WITH THOUSANDS OF PAGES OF METADATA OF NUMBERS SO SOMEHOW THEY WENT THROUGH THERE AND FOUND MY CELL NUMBER A
