"outfront" tonight, a major for terrorist in iraq. militant fighters believed to be
4:01 pm
isis have taken control of iraq's biggest oil refinery. that is crucial. that refinery would supply the fuel that iraqi forces need to fight back. and this comes despite claims frommite rocky government that military forces were using bulldozers to block the terrorists advances. now this was the scene as iraqi forces were providing air support to keep the militant back. the latest power grab follows a move by isis to start imposing shia law. the number of cities now in the hand of terrorist continues to grow. radical sunni militant by the thousands capturing at least three more toups in ttowns in t western diz desert. short of creating in the case of syria, one extensive area of control and in jordan of course, threatening the territorial integrity of a country. this video appears to show a border crossing with jordan. i want to emphasize appears. we haven't confirmed it.
4:02 pm
confirming isis with a direct pipeline for money and weapons. american's top diplomat travelled to baghdad to press for a new government. nic robertson is out front. >> reporter: this is a critical moment for iraq's future. >> reporter: secretary of state john kerry in baghdad today. while just outside capitol, up to 20,000, isis forces are closing in. in the last 48 hours, substantial new gains in the north and west of the country. including an iraqi air base in the key city. isis now controls at least 70% of anbar province where u.s. troops waged a deadly battle incase insurgents just a few years ago. on the web, isis showcasing their games by posting images too graphic to show on tv of bodies believed to be iraqi soldiers. burned in body bags. iraq trying to fight back.
4:03 pm
targeting isis fighters from above. but many inity army are unable and unwilling in some cases to stop the militants. a u.s. defense official tells cnn there are problems with morale, leadership, training and equipment. all the more reason for iraq to begin forming a new government by a july 1st deadline. >> it will allow iraqi security forces to confront more effectively. >> kerry who met with al-maliki also made it clear that a new government is a requirement for american assistance. >> the support will be intense. sustained and if iraq's leaders take the necessary steps to bring the country together, it will be effective. he also said strikes could come at any time. >> make no mistake, the president moved assets into place.
4:04 pm
>> reporter: and those assets will include in coming days, the 300 maximum number military advisors. now that united states agreed with the iraqi government that they will have -- they will have immunity from prosecution. we understand there are six 12-man teams. two of those 12-man teams already present will be made up of staff members already at the u.s. embassy. erin? >> nic robertson, thank you very much. "outfront" military analyst, executive director to general petraeus during the surge in iraq and colonel francona. colonel monsure, you are hear isis advances. do you still feel with a that way? >> i do. i think putting 300 advisors or so on the ground, the only good
4:05 pm
that will come of that is it many give us good situational awareness or bet are situational awareness of the state of the iraqi parmy. that's that information we need going forward. but politically we don't need that. we need a comprehensive solution to the government in baghdad. once they form a government that has the support of the iraqi people, then we can think about those stronger military measures that nic robertson and baghdad discussed. >> and colonel francona, they were talking about anbar, bull dozing overtowns, and when i was there, i remember it being a deserted empty part of the country. what does that mean in terms of how significant the gains are? ? >> they are reeling into the towns that the iraqi government deserted. so the isis fighters can roll
4:06 pm
in, declare themselves in charge and move on. that's why you are seeing this lightning move. looks like they are just rolling across the countryside. >> they don't have to fight anybody. nobody's there. >> very little ref sichtance. i think it is important to get in there and see how good they are. but more importantly, what happened to the iraqi army. >> colonel, there is the sharia law. isis militant going through towns and announcing sharia courts. at their extreme, it is like we saw when we were reporting on this situation in africa. you can't have smoke org music. can't get together. boys and girls have to be seb rate. women have to wear a niqab in public, covering their face. a lot of people say, that sounds like something restricting people's freedom. but why should the u.s. care to
4:07 pm
become involved in someone else's problem? >> well we probably wouldn't just for the implementation of sharia law. it is respected form of juris prudence in much of the islamic world. >> very fair, yes. >> it is the way isis fighters implement it. which will blow back against them as it did in 2006 and 2007 during the surge when they alienate the iraqi people who are really not in their nature as extreme as these jihadys flowing in from the outside. so although this is a measure they are taking now, in the long run, it could work against them as it did back then. >> colonel francona, i hear the point, but at the same time, now for example seizing this crucial refinery. they are able to provide gasoline at a much cheaper price than people were getting it a few days ago. extremist groups have done so successfully, even in places
4:08 pm
like egypt. >> they will support them anyway because there is such animosity, they are looking at some way to get back to shia. but i think it is a temporary thing. and the colonel made a good point. this is a marriage of convenience. they are willing to support them right now. but just as we saw in 2006, with the anbar awakening, they said, we didn't sign up for this. we don't want the aqi, the stage of iraq which aqi became. i think we will see snoerj eye wakening. right now, they'll cooperate because it serves their interest pl down the road, i think we will see the same thing as we saw in 2006. >> thanks very much to both of you. "outfront" next, isis itself, is now the world's richest terror group. you may say, how did that happen without the u.s. knowing about it? well, it did. and we look at where the money is coming from. plus, hillary clinton says
4:09 pm
she is not one of those people who are truly well off. she earned her money through hard work. and the pope takes off. but the energy bp produces up here creates something else as well: jobs all over america. engineering and innovation jobs. advanced safety systems & technology. shipping and manufacturing. across the united states, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. when we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. that's not a coincidence. it's one more part of our commitment to america.

following breaking news with the world's largest oil refinery to be in the hand of isis. i want to show you a map. this is number of iraqi cities that have fallen to the terrorist group. .
4:13 pm
isis has more resources than even al qaeda. michael holmes has a look into the bank rolling. >> reporter: isis, islamic state in iraq and syria. experts say they have manpower, a mission, and money. they have been called the wealthiest terrorist group in the world. >> they could have anything between 1 billion and $2 billion. >> while exact numbers are hard it come by, the sunni militant group amassed a massive grank roll from a wide range of criminal activity like robbery, smuggling, extortion and kidnapping. levying so-called road taxes on trucks, allowing safe passage through isis controlled territory and in return for cash. and making minority christians pay taxes to avoid crucifixion. according to a report from in the "new york times." isis is also cashing in on oil. taking crude from northern fields in northern syria and selling it back to the syrian
4:14 pm
government as well as thre threatening iraq's largest field. this adds up to millions of dollars for isis every month. those millions then used to buy arms and pay for propaganda like this high definition highly produced recruitment video. stansfield credits the success to the leader. >> he put together a plan, a strategy he is implementing a at time when nobody else has one. he is following his plan in anbar and syria, and fighting is ongoing. he is capturing territory. capturing point. >>. >> reporter: making isis more dangerous, stansfield says isis has more resources than al qaeda. >> they have an area of operation. a strong narrative of those areas they are working. and they can see them, they have success upon success now as
4:15 pm
well. and they are working in the heartland of the middle east and fighting against the shia on their own turf. these are all things al qaeda struggled to do. this makes isis even more deadly. >> reporter: and increasing concern to the western world. michael holmes, cnn, atlanta. >> all right. potentially more deadly than al qaeda. counterterrorism analyst, former deputy director, you spent a lot of time dpaeling with alcade why and al qaeda funding. it is impossible to confirm, a number gets thrown around, they robbed a bank, they have half a billion dollars. people keep repeating it. not all of that is absolutely true, but how wealthy are they? >> they have a lot of money, not because they can take it from people. but a truck going through, they will charge money for that truck. the interesting question is not
4:16 pm
how they spend that money, it is how they support people. things like food and medicine so people start to say, isis isn't just a terror group that looks better than al-maliki, it is a group delivering governance. >> how likely it is that you think they doll that? groups come in where the governments have been unable to do that, and they've done that. basic education. basic services. basic food. and they get the hearts and minds. >> i think the real story is not whether isis takes land. there is one group, most successful terror group on the planet that did it extremely well. that's lebanese hezbollah. the question isn't whether they take an oil refinery. it is, are they so harsh in their imposition of islamic law, so willing to spend money on weapons but not food that they lose sut port they have today. >> when they do that, by definition would they become more tame?
4:17 pm
because when you govern, you become less perhaps extremist. you become someone that u.s. says they won't deal with, but they do. things, like, let's just say, the taliban. >> let me make a prediction. as isis succeeds, people will say, if people don't believe us, we will cut off their heads. they learn. better be careful about islamic law. you say we are jurordained by g kill them. >> so what about shia government. everyone says, oh, these horrible things. limb for limb. but you don't think they doll that? >> the problem is not with sharia law. if you look at polling, there is a modest amount of polling data. the koran, the book of muslims, is how you live life. not how you go to church on
4:18 pm
sundays. >> right. separation of church and state. >> the question is how you impose it. let me give you a critical example. who in isis sits down and says, here is a good muslim, here is a bad muslim. do they say some villages are bad muslim because they don't share their views? that is in villages they now own. and just overall in terms of governing, easy probably to take over land. sunnis are upset with al-maliki, but when you govern, one person is more than the other. that transition is hister toically hasn't been possible to achieve. >> look at terror groups over time. we are all worried about taking over territory. let me flit much coin. there are disadvantages for isis in taking over territory. winning it is different than owning it. look at somalia, yemen, north africa. when they move in, they realize they have a responsibility to people. they can't execute that
4:19 pm
responsibility. >> right. as long as they are focused on this and their war there, it is less likely they are attacking the united states. >> correct. >> this sounds awful. but advances they are making made new york city, boston, new york, chicago more secure. why is that? simple explanation. they are worried about where the iraqi army is coming over the hill the next day. not about, what am i going to do about new york city and the car bomb in times square. what you have to worry is when the battle lines settle and they say, i have bigger fish to fry, and those fish are in new york city. >> good to see you as always. still "outfront," chief grilled on capitol hill tonight. live hearing. thousands of e-mails that supposedly vanished. this as we hear a white house lawyer has been subpoenaed in connection to the scandal as it grows. u.s. soccer team tries to break through to the next round. one player gets all of the

so close. team usa seconds away from winning the match against portugal but just couldn't hold on. portugal's last-minute score tied the game. a win would have automatically sent the u.s. to the next round. but this makes it more interesting. senior writer at 538, this is a website that does statistical analysis, rather brilliantly, calling elections right all the time. neil, good to have you with us. u.s. plays germany thursday at noon eastern. a lot of people watching, say, germany, they are good, aren't they?
4:24 pm
they are. but if the u.s. wins or ties, they go to knockout round. they don't have to win, just have to tie. what are the odds they can pull it off? >> right now our model says there's about 36% chance the u.s. wins or draws. and as you said, they don't actually have to beat germany. which is good. because germfully is a really good team and there is only about 15% chance that we would beat germany out right. >> only 15% chance to beat out right. does the u.s. have a chance. a lot of people would be skeptical of that. say, look, america is good at many things. but football as the world calls it is not necessarily one at the top of the list. >> well, they have a good chance to get out of group stage as they are in right now. about 76% chance because they can win, they can draw, and then there are other scenarios which they can lose and still make it in based on the goal differential of ghana in their
4:25 pm
game against portugal. if portugal wins in a close game then we are guaranteed to be in. they have a good chance still of making it in to the next round. the knock-out round. once we get there, it is anyone's game but the u.s.'s chances are not quite as good as a team like brazil or argentine why or germany. >> waits, wait, can we get that screen back? neil, what i just saw is a 99. that was not the number on the screen. the number on the screen was 1%. what i saw that was 99% chance of the united states does not went the world cup. >> yes. there's a 1% chance, according to our model, that u.s. wins. but that's a lot better than was before the tournament started. if you look at our odds before the tournament started, we add 1 in 255 chance of winning. now we have 1 in 99 chance of winning. >> that means if you bet and you're right, you can make a lot more money. i will find the positive side. but in terms of who is going to
4:26 pm
win, if someone was trying to put a bet on that, what are your odds? >> we still say brazil is the best team. a lot of that has to do with home field, home pitch, i guess would you call it, advantage. in the world cup. playing your games as home country seems to matter. it hopes that brazil is the best team even though this haven't been as dominant as would you have believed going into the tournament. >> i'm trying to decide which one i'll bet on. maybe i will go with the 1% odds. probably not. thanks, neil, appreciate it. all right. still out front, on capitol hill right now, this hearing is going on as we speak. we are watching it as we have an investigation on whether, this is a fact, can thousands of e-mails just go missing? or is that a lie? this is darrell issa grilling the chief of the irs. then like something out of a movie.

. breaking news, a white house lawyer subpoenaed about thousands of missing e-mails. as that scandal now touching the white house directly. a congressional committee investigating the irs scandal want the attorney to appear before a hearing tomorrow. right now there's a hearing live as one of several top hearings going on. this is a live picture. as irs hearing going on. that's elijah cummings questioning. the issue is thousands of supposedly missing e-mails belonging to lois lerner. the woman who has become at the center of the whole investigation. and if those e-mails exist, they could determine whether the order to target the tea party or other groups came from inside or outside the agency. that's why the e-mails are so crucial. if they are miss, they say it is proof that's why the democrats
4:32 pm
are lying. athena jones is on capitol hill tonight. athena, what is going on inside the hearing? >> the hearing is just getting under way. it started a few minutes late because of late voting. but the commissioner from the irs is already under some tough questioning about these e-mails. a two-year time period, january 2009 to april 2011. not clear how many e-mails may have began missing in that period just because they're miss pg. we have this letter here from the chairman, chairman issa from the house. it is 15 questions that he has posed to the irs commissioner. but these questions have -- many have several parts. it is many, many questions he is hoping that irs commissioner will answer tonight. let me play for you a little bit of an example of some of the tough questioning we heard from darrell issa to the commissioner. >> you, commissioner, are the president's hand-picked man to
4:33 pm
restore trust and accountability at the irs. you testified under oath in mar thatch you would produce all of lois lerner's e-mails subpoena bid this committee. before you testified, you took an oath you will take again tonight, to tell the truth, the whole truth, and not but the truth. mr. commissioner, at a minimum you did not tell the whole truth that you knew on that day. you gave your commitment to produce all e-mails to the committee. you gave your word, sir, and we are just a little questioning what your word is worth, if in fact you cannot enlighten us about what you know that is germane to our inquiry whether it is explicitly asked. >> so that's just one example of the kind of fireworks we could see later on tonight. also, the same hearing, same committee has another hearing on the same matter tomorrow morning. so this is not a subject that's going to go away. of course we are still waiting
4:34 pm
it hear the white house response to this subpoena from the committee. they have asked this lawyer, who worked for the irs and now at the white house, to testify tomorrow. we will see whether the white house responds and whether they produce her. athena, thank you very much. how many times can he say the word lie without actually saying it. tom, this issue of the e-mails, whether they are gone or not, is it possible? >> possible? possible? yeah. listen to this, if you were to crack open your computer and look attard r hard drive, what you find something that looks like this. if you open that up, what you find is this. a stack of shiny spinning disks with arms over here that magnetically write information on them. when people talk about the hard drive, this is what they are talking about. this is what the irs says failed inside one of their kpusers and some in congress believe that hard drive may have shown there was an illegal conspiracy
4:35 pm
against conservative groups and who directed that campaign. trs. >> why should anyone believe you? >> i don't believe you. >> back in 2010, irs officials now admit that's when they were giving special scrutiny to request from the tea party and other conservatives for tax-exempt status. which was routinely granted to others. by 2011, conservatives were complaining, especially about lois lerner the bost bos in charge of that dirigs. republican congressional investigators suspect they wrote e-mails about the matter but she wouldn't talk and the irs says her hard drive crashed later that year. taking with it the only copies of an unknown number of messages. and at least a half dozen other computers crashed too. possible? maybe. say cybersecurity skprts like brian cunningham. >> but it is very hard to believe that there would have been no recoverable data and it would have happened on so many
4:36 pm
different computers in the same investigation. >> computers may stop functioning, some data may be lost, but those little electronic messages on the surface have a stubborn way of hanging on. >> even drives that have been burn had, soaked in water, damaged, visually beyond all repair, competent engineers can still recover meaningful amounts of data from them. >> why not reexamine lerner's drive now? too late. the irs says it was destroyed. what about a back-up file? the isa had one when all this is happened about you a tape system that was erased every six months. so by 2012, the lost e-mails were gone. e even though it took until this year to tell congress, spurring even more suspicion. >> did lois lerner preemtively crash her hard drive? >> all of the evidence is to the contrary. >> now, to be fair, the irs
4:37 pm
produced 750,000 pages of documents in this case and have been able to recover 24,000 of these e-mails from lois lerner who is no now retired by accessing e-mail of other people. but that has done precious little to quiet the accusations. politically motivated or other wise that irs a hiding something and blaming it on a bug in their computers. erin? >> thank you, tom. here e here's the thing. we sent a cell phone in a pressurized container to the bottom of the ocean. and we still got every text off of it. they said, in 300 years, we can still get every text off of it. >> shouldn't be in denial about this. no one loves the irs from the beginning. when people say, oops, hard drive is gone, it's the tech equivalent of the dog ate my homework. a hard road to climb. i think they are denial about
4:38 pm
how serious this scandal can get. whenever darrell issa does something, it doesn't look like the truth. it looks like the hackener grand standing. >> it galvanizing. >> absolutely. so the whole truth suspect where we should be, gets lost in the pinne wind. >> there is something else i have to talk about. an interview in britain's gua guardi guardian. they asked clinton about her wealth, which is extremely large. she is running as democrat but when is wealthy. so here is what she said. she said, they don't see me as part of the problem, writes the paper, because we pay ordinary income. not to name names but some don't pay regular income tax. if past form is any gooid, she must be finding my question painful.
4:39 pm
>> sunny, unlike people who are really well off. there are other people that put that to shame. >> and other people, this her words, truly wealthy, that only pay capital gains taxes an hide their money in off-shore accounts. i think that's what she is referring to. certainly inartful, no question about it. but i'm so shocked at hillary clinton. because we know that she stepped in this before. right? she sort of mentioned that they were dirt poor when they left the white house. so she scraped off her shoe this time and got out of it. now it is still wreaking. and i'm very surprised she hasn't sort of mixed the message. because the message is, you've got to be relatable. you have to -- people have to like you and also think that you can relate to their problems. at this point, i think, i can't relate it a hundred million dollar problem. >> she is referencing, you get a lower rate if you have investment income. she acts as if most of that money not an investment, not
4:40 pm
getting a letter rate, because you know what? is it. >> in talking about this hundred million dollar wealth in an estate, they practiced tax loop holes available only to the top 1 hers of americans. as much as i would like to go after her on taxes, i would really like to go after her on something because you can go after something and govern americans. >> and be relatable. >> just because income and equality would be a policy issue, doesn't mean you can't talk about income equality. and it doesn't mean you are in a more nuances way. look, republicans think mitt romney would have been wise to talk about social mobility. because the problem here is not just this frozen -- the problem if you have a frozen flat of social classes. it is not so much that you have a super rich, it is if that super rich is unattainable to everyone, then have you a problem. >> i think it is very inside baseball. people aren't going to listen to
4:41 pm
that. they will just think -- what? you got a hundred million dollars? and you don't think that's weal think? i think she just alienates people. >> this can be a more nuanced issue. we can have a smart conversation -- >> this is turned from us versus them. the really well off. >> at the height of her political problems in that particular sentence, but you're right. look, interestingly, one of the things she tried to do was address a mortgage point. we earned this on our own. >> dent to hard work. >> right, dent to hard work. whatever dent means. the larger point is we should be having a conversation about the loop holes available to the super rich. creative 14% effective tax rate. want to triangulate? >> the everyday american doesn't understand that. >> let's not talk down to the everyday american. when the clintons say, do as i
4:42 pm
say, don't do as i do, when they say, i'm part of the middle class but my billionaire friends think we are poor, that's a problem with the bubble you live in. >> this whole issue, but we pay ordinary income tax like others. >> that's true. and i think though, i'm not a pundit or politician, i'm just a lawyer. i don't understand a lot of this nuanced argument. i liken myself to the average middle class person who grew up like i did. poor, who picked herself up by the boot straps. went it law school, became a lawyer. she alienated me with that statement. even though i'm a hillary fan. i think her message, again, is really a problem. especially to african-americans, i think especially to latinos. >> she might be running against
4:43 pm
another person who has that awe shucks thing down better. that person being joe biden. who said this morning this -- >> don't hold it against me that i don't own a single stock or bond. don't hold it that i have no savings account. but i got a great pension and a good salary. >> his wife, they put in his wife's name. but he made my point, right? he's relating to those people. >> 2016, early on -- >> he's running? >> you think? they are friends but all is fair in love and war. this is a soft line for 2016. >> is also joe biden talking to working families. he has always been the least wealthy senator. that's part of his charm and part of his problem. he is an awe shucks guy, working. but the contrast is here. >> i'm that girl. and i liked it. >> did he mention he is from scranton p.
