JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): So, what is the end game here? And this is my grievance. You're going to have a hearing. We get screwed, then you have a hearing. Nothing happens. We get screwed again, we have a hearing, nothing happens. Same thing with Benghazi, they just got these guys to sign NDAs and it just goes away.
...
We're investigating the Justice Department and then they laugh at us. Then DeSantis gets elected, Trump gets elected -- what's he going to go in there and fire Chris Wray? Last time anybody did that he got impeached for it, he got a special counsel down his throat. Or you go in and you leave Chris Wray in there and then he blackmails you. So, we have an FBI dictatorship here, you either fire him and die or you can't touch him and you still die. And then the media comes out, doesn't even cover any of the substance of the hearings -- thank you -- so this thing's totally contained over here and no one discusses it. I'm sick of these hearings. Make me feel better guys. Tell me this is going somewhere.

JESSICA TARLOV: You guys got the Durham investigation which was supposed to blow the lid off all of this and it ended up with nothing because there is nothing.
WATTERS: Exactly! Exactly. Oh there is nothing. Stop.
