Earlier this morning,
President Trump took to twitter to issue a thinly veiled threat to former FBI
Director James Comey, saying “James Comey better hope that there are no
"tapes" of our conversations before he starts leaking to the
press!” This threat, coupled with
Comey’s sudden dismissal has led some in the FBI to believe that Trump has
essentially declared war on the FBI, as one anonymous FBI official recently
told the Washington Post, and that
there will be a concerted effort within the department to respond over time in
kind. Joining me today to talk all about
the hornets’ nest that the President has kicked and how members of the FBI are threatening to go to war with the president is Zack Beauchamp who is a Senior Reporter for Vox.com.
