On this week's edition of 'Fox News Sunday,' radio host Laura Ingraham commented on the role Andrew McCabe, Deputy Director of the FBI, might have played in "unmasking" the names of senior Trump campaign people in surveillance material provided to political operatives.



"McCabe's wife received $700,000 in political contributions arranged and facilitated by none other than Clinton friend Terry McAuliffe," Ingraham explained, noting that Sen. Chuck Grassley had sent a letter to the FBI requesting that they preserve all documents related to spying on the Trump campaign.



"All documents better be preserved and all communications better be turned over about what McCabe knew and when he knew it about the unmasking of individuals who were surveilled during the Trump transition or during the Trump campaign," she said.



"If it turns out at the end of all of this that the FBI and our intelligence agency have turned into a partisan political operations with agendas, then Republicans and Democrats should be very concerned," she said. "If it all turns out this is just a routine investigation, the Trump administration will have the egg on its face."



She added: "I have a feeling that we will find out a lot more about who was involved in the unmasking and who had an agenda."







CHRIS WALLACE: Laura, the president and his team dug in deeper this week on this whole Russia scandal and their argument now is that the Obama administration surveilled the Trump team and then spread that classified information for political purposes. Is this helping or hurting the white house?



LAURA INGRAHAM: If they know that as long as this investigation goes on, the harder it is for them to push on a number of fronts their domestic agenda, foreign policy. I think a lot of folks do believe that the Russia focus is meant in part to delegitimize the presidency of Donald Trump. If one Sean Spicer makes that point, I think he's right. If he --Sen. Grassley-- he sent a letter a few days ago. You don't want to tangle with with. He sent a letter to the FBI about Andrew McCabe, the number two co-person at the FBI. Andrew McCabe's wife received $700,000 in political contributions arranged and facilitated by none other than Clinton friend Terry McAuliffe.



His concern is that all documents better be preserved and all communications better be turned over about what McCabe knew and when he knew it about the unmasking of individuals who were surveilled during the Trump transition or during the Trump campaign.



If it turns out at the end of all of this that the FBI and our intelligence agency have turned into a partisan political operations with agendas, then Republicans and Democrats should be very concerned. If it all turns out this is just a routine investigation, the Trump administration will have the egg on its face. I have a feeling that we will find out a lot more about who was involved in the unmasking and who had an agenda.
