Is anything moving like that Congressman Biggs over judiciary? Is Jerry -- I haven't seen Jerry Nadler put out an issue, a call to have a hearing with Horowitz and find out what's going on at the Department of Justice.

REP. ANDY BIGGS, R-ARIZ: Well, you know, Mr. Nadler probably doesn't want to find out because every time he turns around, something that he has built his impeachment foundation on gets washed away underneath the foundation. So, the Mueller report was the dud that it was. The inspector general reported coming out and basically is debunking and shaming Mr. Comey are very important.

And, you know, the one thing that I think that Nadler really doesn't want to get into is when the I.G. says that Mr. Comey was doing this and leaking to promote a personal motivated agenda, that personally motivated agenda was basically to impeach -- to provide material to impeach Donald Trump or to cause him to come under scrutiny in this investigation. He wanted a special counsel appointed.

That special counsel was Robert Mueller. And the Mueller investigation was supposed to provide the reason to remove Donald Trump and it didn't happen. So, I don't think Jerry Nadler is going to come around on this.

CHAFFETZ: Congressman Biggs?

BIGGS: Yes, Jason, there's nothing formal done. Jerry Nadler knows that, but this is his narrative and he's been saying it for six months once the day he was made chairman of this committee. So, he is just kind of constructing his own pathway to try to impeach President Trump without going through the real formal motions.

CHAFFETZ: Yes, we've got to impeach him and now, we've got to go find evidence but it's getting even worse when the inspector general saying -- is debunking the head of the FBI with such clarity as Mr. Horowitz did.

Congressman, thank you so much for joining us. Have a good Labor Day weekend.

BIGGS: Thank you.
