g d automatically adjusting to your every move. there. i can also help with this. does your bed do that? i'm the new sleep number 360 smart bed. let's meet at a sleep number store. all right. the world is waking up to a horrible headline. we have been struck by terror in new york city again. it is the most deadly win in new york city. eight people murdered. 11, maybe more injured and the irony of it all is that it is in the shadow of the world trade center, surrounded by the best law enforcement and a man with a truck was able to make all of this happen, raising so many questions about how to secure

yourself against this threat. these vehicle born terror att k attacks is a -- is it coordinated? there was a note left. he made a very familiar call in the name of terror when he got ouchlt there are also strange aspects. where it was done and why it was done, the use of weapons that wound up being fake. we have gene on the ground with what happened, gene. >> reporter: they are investigating it as a lone wolf terror attack. we are standing so close to the world trade center where yesterday afternoon about 3: 3:05 11 people were injured and eight people lost their lives. >> we have a mass casualty situation here.

>> terrifying moments in downtown manhattan. >> it is going to be a crime scene. >> reporter: a pickup truck barrelling down a bike and footpath just blacocks from the world trade center. >> i hear multiple gunshots one after another. >> they say the 29-year-old was shot in the stomach and remayin hospitalized. a note was found near the truck saying the attack was done in the name of isis. >> there is no evidence that suggests a wider plot or wider scheme. >> a native came to the united states in 2010. in 2013 he married a young woman also from uzbekistan.

the occupation listed on is truck driver. he is connected to a residence in tampa, florida but most recently lived in new jersey. uber said he worked for them for the past six months and passed their background chechlkt he was arrested in missouri in 2016 after failing to appear in court for a traffic violation. they say he rented the pickup truck from this home depot store in new jersey just before carrying out the attack. at 3:05 p.m. the truck entered the bike path in lower manhattan plowing into pedestrians for nearly a mile. bodies stroen across the path! i see two gentlemen with tire

marks across their body. you you can tell they are not here no more. >> reporter: the attacker caught on truck brandishing what appeared to be two guns. >> he was screaming in the street. he looked frustrated, panicked, confused. >> reporter: police later discovering he was holding a pellet and paintball gun. the suspect was shot by a 28-year-old nypd officer, ryan nash. world trade center lighting up in pred, white and blue. the city's halloween parade going on as planned with tighter security. >> new yorkers are strong. new yorkers are resilient. our spirit will never be move bid an act meant to intimidate us. >> reporter: of the eight people that were killed we know six of

them were killed instantly right here at the scene. we are learning more about the victims, five of them citizen of argentina celebrating their 30th high school reunion in new york city. >> all right. thank you very much. in truth life went on yesterday. it was halloween and we'll taub about whether or not it because date that was specifically planned for. people were out. this hit home. it is the deadliest attack. it is in the shadow of the world trade center. it is supposed to be safe. obviously the man who did that knew that. let's talk about what he means to terror investigators. let's we have a reporter and producer very well wired into the investigation. we also have two great analysts,

phil mudd and professor at st. john's. we start with you. the man, his name irrelevant, but where he is from, how he got to this point, that is relevant. what is known? >> that is what part of the joint terrorism task force are trying to figure out. they are spent the night in new jersey at a home they believe he was living at in patterson new jersey. there were search warrants and we are hoping to learn more about that later. authorities have been able to build a time line now of his movement leading up to the attack. they believe it was around 2:00 or so that he left the home depot and drove across the george washington bridge and

drove onto the west side highway and then went into the bike path and unleashed his attack. so they are starting to build this time line. now the key for them is who is he communicating with? they now believe it to be the case. it is preliminary. they just don't have any other facts to say that he was talking to anyone overseas. the key for them is going to be was he self-radicalized and also his other ties. he has ties to tampa. he has ties to ohio. so authorities have been working through the night to make sure there aren't any connections there we need to worry about and hopefully later today he will likely be charged and we should hear more information when they hold a press conference around 11:00 this morning. >> all right. thank you very much.

let us know what you learned. let's bring in phil mudd. he came out of the vehicle. he had a note that supposedly pledged some type of devotion to isis. you say not so fast, why? >> i'm saying i'm more cautious. i want to know what did he tell friends and family, did he have drug and alcohol abuse? you're going back to someone that has been in the country for seven years. family history. i'm confident on the outside but on the inside i have to follow the facts. 24 hours or less in he's -- >> that's going to be new in terms of geographical significance. >> the central asians were, they have been involved in isis.

>> was there somebody else in the community that knew? what is his travel history over the past years and that digital trail, is he communicating for those who are radicalizing? a lot of dimensions here. >> there is an emotional compote here. >> if it is coordinated or not it is still too easy. he hopped a curb and went on a killing spree. we'll show you later on some of the video people shot in the moment. the devastation this guy was capable to pull off maybe with nothing except a black heart. what does that tell you? >> it is something law enforcement at the federal level are right now borworking on and making sure is there anything we missed or something we should have picked up earlier. in this instance one of the

things, we have to establish, was he directed by isis? inspired by isis or -- >> what's the different between aspired and -- >> inspired means they were online, watching preachings and teachings. >> it was put on them? >> yes. the aspiring says wow, that could be cool, just a copy cat. the nypd and fbi three fellows that were attempting to go. as t it shrinks those fighters are disbursing and work hard on the propaganda piece. >> i want to be careful about something. i'm not criticizing law enforcement area down here. i can't believe we haven't seen

more of this. i live in this city. i lived here during 9/11. i was one of the first people on the scene that morning. there is no question they do an amazing job stopping these things. i will remember that cat from connecticut who got inspired, came down with a bomb in his vehicle and they were able to stop it. we know they do a good job. but these vehicles, we are seeing it now. it ain't a coincidence. is it coins dependence, copy cat or articulation of terror? >> it is not coincidence. initially you had a group that is al qaeda that wanted to draw an entire community of people. it is recruits that are raising

money, people who are radic radicalize radicalizers. it does not have the cape iblt to bring in people to conduct something as sophisticate as we saw in paris a few year ago. those people will not have things like weapons training. what did they do? rent a truchlkt it is basic terrorism. >> the note, the fake weapons, what does it mean to you? >> is note is important too. there are a number of thing we we can draw from it. we sex pressed failure. what about hair and fibers, other forensic pieces to determine whether there was conspiracy or he truly was a lone wolf. >> the location choice, new york, it is to the nation what

the why church is to the village, right? it is the visible ion sign of aspiration. it rings true today. and to hit here -- literally we are in the shadow of the world trade center. it is a resemble of the resolve to never let it happen again. this hits hard. >> it does. he is coming from across the bridge of new jersey. if you look at this for the past 20 or 30 years this is not only a coupleture ral capital but a financial cap pal. remember the twin -- >> and both of us having been here on 9/11 we lost 343 fire

fighters, 30 something officer from port authorities, two fbi agents that day. it is visceral that he chose this particular spot. i'm sure there was a tactical calculated by that. as you pointed out, in the shadow of the freedom tower. >> there are so many that it is a symbol of aspiration, of positive things. the reason he came to a stop is that he hit a school bus in front of this high school that's all about encouraging diversity and people who come from all over and then this guy puts a mark on all of that, phil. >> he does, but when i walked out only september 11th.

if you would have said it is a track attack that is -- it leaves eight people dead you would have said that's remarkable success. the limitations of what he said, i don't think he would have traveled overseas to travel. couldn't access an aircraft. it shows you successful nypd have been. >> they ended it with that police officer from the first precinct. within blocks he was able to get just blocks before they were able to take him down. i'll check in with you in a little bit. he is right. this could have been so much worse chlts i will show you some video. people in the moment, you know, everybody has one of these now. everybody uses it to memorialize things that happen. this was a truly grizzly scene.

for those of you who understand pickup trucks and are familiar with them. this was a rental. it was heavy. the damage it was able to do is a function of that. this was a truly grizzly scene that was seen by so many witnesses there. you had the eight people who lost their lives, watch some of this video. [ sirens ] >> i'm not sure what it is. [ sirens ]

>> imagine living that scene, new york city. you know, this is where 9/11 hit that kind of opened our eyes to the reality of terror in the modern age. life went on. people went on. people survived. this morning the city is bustling once again although everybody has this heavy in their head and harassment we have two eyewitnesss with us. we have elizabeth and ruben. thank you for being with us. >> thank you. >> did you get some sleep last night? >> barely, but, you know. >> did you get some sleep? >> some hours, not much. >> you guys are young.

this has been the world that you have groan have groun grown up in. where were you yesterday? >> a boy ran in and we hear gunshots and we were in a lock down for about three hours. i ended up on a pool duck watchiwatc watching -- deck watching out and i saw all of the police arriving at the scene with fbi, wa s.w.a.t. team and other personnel. >> what did you see, ruben? >> i was by the basketball court. i thought it was a normal day sitting out there. i hear gunshots go off and then i see kids running away from it laughing so i thought it was a halloween joke or prank. give it two or three minutes i start walking in that direction

and i see all types of police, firefighters, emss rushing to that area. i see one man lag down on the floor with ems trying to assist him. i walk up the overpass where i can see an overview of everything and i see a pickup truck that looked like it was smashed into a light pole. i look to the right and i see two bicycles next to them. i was looking at the bicycles and they looked like they have been run over. >> now you know what happened. >> yes. >> and you were saying this morning, life changes so fast in these situations. when you go on google maps, that whole thing is now identified as new york city attack route. what does it mean that this happened here and now? >> i was really young.

it still impacts them. i remember it and they tell the story. it is really surprising and scary it happened again 15 years later in the same area next to my school with all of these young children around. >> what do do you with this once you realized what it was? how does it impact you? >> you just can't believe something like that would happen as part of manhattan downtown. again, we live in new york city and anything can happen. all over the world crazy things are hapg to all different kinds of people. it's not too farfetched. >> do you think it's more surprising that it happened or that it hasn't happened sooner? >> i think it's more surprising that it hasn't happened sooner to be honest. >> how old are you? >> i am 17. >> 23. >> when they hear about that th and they hear he has the note,

what is the reaction among people your age in terms of how to view muslims as a result of this, how to view people that say they are isis inspired? what the do you say? >> once it is identified as an isis attack people try to put it on the entire muslim race. you try to separate from other muslim people. they know that the people that did the attack did have certain motives and try to work with the information they have. >> i am asking because you are part of a very rare group. you're part of a generation that was raised on multi-culturalism. you can't be here if you're not going embrace diversity. we are struggling with what to make of the threat. when people find out this guy was a muslim or central asian or

member of the islamic faith, that's them coming after us again. people your age, do you hear people or is it different? >> it is kind of different. from what i talk to, it's more as if one bad apple doesn't ruin the tree. one person doesn't define a whole race. >> why doesn't everybody define that? >> this is what happens. it is bad for do you, my friend. >> it comes down to a generation thing. >> you have muslim friends? >> yes. >> you have people in your life? >> yes. >> what does that mean to you? >> stand unite as new york and accept different races, cultures and religions. >> and that's enough for now, right? >> yeah. >> thank god you weren't hurt.

everybody you know is okay. life goes on. school today? >> work today. >> thank you. hopefully you sleep better tonight. appreciate it. i wanted to have that con vir sags about the generational difference. you have to be real. there is no question but how you view it, what it means, how you the threat versus a billion plus people, that matters also. you do see a difference generationally. in this case it is probably a good thing. >> so interesting to hear from elizabeth there. this is her reality as a teenager. it is interesting to get young people's perspective on all of that. we'll be back with you shortly. we do need to talk about what's happening at the white house. trump is tweeting has order

increased vetting. what does that mean? and another source says she rejecting the advice to have ban nonto take a dwhash does that mean? we are live at the white house with more, joe. >> good morning. hoping to get more on that today. the president has his intelligence. he is expected to have a cabinet meeting. we do expect to see the president on camera. there are no official remarks ton schedule. it was not be surprising if the president wanted to weigh in on the rampage in his hometown. the first lady was in new york city at the time of the attack and even tweeted about it. >> reporter: president trump responding to the deadliest terror attack tweeting he

ordered homeland security but providing no additional in addition about what the order means. the president went a -- we nus not allow isis to enter our country. the suspect is from uzebkastan. two former campaign aids being charged and two pleading guilty in robert mueller investigation. they say the president has decided to stick with the situation of cooperating right now despite being urged to take a harder line by steve bannon.

communications director will be interviewed in mid-november. >> what is the reaction? >> thank you very much. >> president trump ignoring questions about george papadopolous. >> what he did was lie and that's on him, not on the campaign. >> plan to go distance the president from papadopolous. >> he was the coffee boy. he had nothing to do with the campaign. >> it sheds light on why authorities placed the former campaign manager, paul manafort on house arrest. both pleaded not guilty including money laundering. it shows he holds each under a

different number. he traveled to mexico, china and ek ecuador. he opened 55 i counts with 13 financial institutions and both men were frequent travelers where some of gates bank accounts are based. we could see them in federal court here in washington d.c. as early as tomorrow. if convicted they could face upwards of ten years in prison. >> thank you for all of that. a new york city bike path, the ultimate soft target for a terror attack. what's the solution? that's next. woman: we demand a lot from our eyes every day. i should know.

a joint investigation. president trump tweeted moments ago about this suspect. he says the terrorists came into our country through what is called the diversity lottery program, i want merit based. security joins us now. she former director. thank you very much for being here. >> sure. >> let's talk about this for a second. the program that the president just tweeted about, it allows immigrant visas to become available annually from random selection of entries from people who our countries -- from countries where low rates of imgrachlgts this guy was from uzbekastan. what do you know with regard to it being safe? >> all immigrants should come through a process of vetting.

it was very thorough and where we had challenges. it wasn't with regard to what the american government was doing. it was with regard to the capacity of the originating government. that's why the presidents picked those half a dozen countries or so who he believes can't give us the right kind of information. it is not that kind of country. in fact if anything it may have two strong control over their citizens, their identities and their records. so i get the point that we might want to base our immigration for solid economic reasons. that doesn't shift the scale in terms of how we should vet for national security reasons. >> when the president says that the diversity visa program was a chuck shumer beauty. would he dream this one up? >> i have no idea. frankly he doesn't have it

within his ability to change american policy with regard to immigration. that's kind of a whole government solution. i don't think we need to blame that on one person. look, fair discussion, go to merit base for economic advantage rather than these other criteria which were more based upon family relationships. that's a legitimate discussion. >> when the president says we need to do even more extreme vetting, do you know what that would look like? >> it makes me a little uncomfortable. it has the ring of the campaign more than the strategy, falling back ton language that president trump used last summer as he was running for president. look, we need to vet. we need to be very very careful. al wa there's another factor here as well. ke can't appear to be working against them and their interests. this is a radicalized individual.

we have radicalized individuals in this country. we don't have ral kalized communities. if we overachieve in system of these security programs and our government now begins to look threatening to these communities, we develop radicalized communities which are a greater challenge to us. >> you articulated perfectly. i want to look at -- we are getting aerial video in. this is patterson, new jersey. this is the subpoespect's home. you can see people are monitoring what happened. he survived, obviously. the police did not shoot to kill this suspect. and so maybe he'll be able to answer questions about what happened in this home here, how he became radicalized. as my experience as a crime report

reporter of interviewing crime suspects, they haven't given a it a lot of thought or they don't give you much. >> we don't often get to do this because this man wanted to be a suicide bomber or in this case suicide bhi policemen by holding the two fake guns up. we will get a look behind the screen that we don't normally get and get to understand perhaps a bit about the radicalization for someone like him who has been in merng for seven years. let me give you three categories. he could have been isis directed. frankly, i doubt that given the pressure we have on the. he could have been isis inspierd. i'll give you a third category here, isis justified. that is the individual froen

violence. they are not pulled by isis. they grab isis as justification for violence that they were probably intending on doing anyway. we may learn an awful lot about that process. >> thanks so much. we always appreciate having your expertise on with us. >> thank you. let's go back to lower manhattan, the scene of the terror attack. that is where chris is reporting this morning. >> reporter: all right. let's go step-by-step by what we understand right now. we are getting areas from patterson, new jersey not because there is an active threat. authorities say they are trying to seize upon all intelligence they can at this point to figure out what motivation there was for this murder, this terrorist. they have access to his computer. they want to interview the people that are close to him. that is what we are being told.

back here in lower manhattan this place is so significant. new york city is a symbol. you remember the poem about new york as a symbol of the world's aspiration, that it is to the nation what the white church to the community. it is the white plume. that white plume is now the world trade center. this place has been rebuilt to be better than ever and it is in the shadow of this building, as the sun hits it this morning, that we see the most deadly and successful a terror attack si e since 9/11. eight lives lost. some may have self-evacuated. we'll weather and hear how much is left by this. let's bring in the mayor on the

scene giving people confidence that if parade and life would go on. how are you doing? >> it was amazing last night. almost a million part-time pooem ca -- people came to the halloween parade. the attitude was one of the strength, perseverance. people are not going have their lives changed by someone who is trying to undermine society. i was so impressed. we are not going to let the trafts ever win and and they have a an immediate young officer steps in and stops this. >> no question about that. the concern is that it is too

easy. one guy with a truck hops a curb and is able to do this nechb part of the city we preseem is safest. it is surrounded by law enforcement headquarters. i don't have to tell you. you make sure it is kept in place. who do you think to people that would have that happen? >> it is a very painful instance people were feeling it. the closeness physically to ground zero means even more. at the same time people in the city see an nypd presence every day. we added 2,000 more officers on patrol in the last two years. we have the strongest anti terrorist capacity. a lot of officers with heavy greer that they are reassured.

i think it's painful for us but at the same time knows a lot about stopping terrorism. i think you'll see that presence and people will know that it's there for them. >> reporter: you know, the world has changed. i heard you talk about it with your kids. when you and i saw the long guns and police presence it would have freaked us out. there is reassurance in this. you saw the president weighing in this morning. he is blaming the presence of this man for seven years in this country for what they are calling an open border policy. he came in legally through a process, through an airport and had been here several years without incident or flags to authority. there is blame here.

it is about muslims and democrats like you letting them in too easily. who do you respond to that? >> the last thing the president or anyone else zhould is criticize this strategy. that work will be done by the fbi and nypd abdomnd all of our partners to determine what moved him to this horrible act and if there are any bigger ramifications. in the end, the last thing we should do is start. that only makes the situation worse. bottom line is anyone who wants to come in this country should be very thoroughly vetted. the minute you start -- then we are sending the exact negative message that terrorists want to

affirm that this nation is some how anti-muslim. we have to show, we respect all people in america. it is our constitution says it. our history says it. we respect all faith. when we do that it helps us fight terror and have the high ground. it should not be politicized. we should stand shoulder to shoulder and get to the gbottom of this and move forward and never let the terrorists have the high ground. >> and take care of these families who were effected down here. >> obviously. >> the micro discussion is how do you harden up soft targets like this? this guy was able to jaufump a curb. you need better barriers? >> we need to see what changes we need to make. it did not turn out to be

related to terrorism. we made physical changes. let's face it, in the modern world we literally change our tactics to strengthen ourselves against terrorism. we have these big parades. we used to allow vehicles to block the parade past. we don't allow that. we stop that because of what we see in berlin. we are adjusting every time. we'll decide some places that need additional hardening. we don't have the illusion that we can be everywhere all of the time. but we know we can keep improving our defenses. as you said earlier, it maybe once upon a time people would

have been assured. we'll keep that out there. >> we started out in las vegas and now at the end of the month here we are right back at the site of 9/11 with the most deadly terrorist attack since 9/11. appreciate it. >> one thing i can say is new yorkers are going to stay strong through this, no matter what. >> they are here. they are out in numbers and telling me to get out of the way as all new yorkers would. >> thanks so much. so republicans are delaying their plans to unveil their tax overhaul bill, why? plus we'll have breaking coverage of the new york city attack. we'll be back in one moment. when a critical patient is far from the hospital,

okay. time for cnn money now. republicans delays the release of their long awaited tax plan, why? let's bring in chief business core spen spon dent. what's going on here?

>> the plan was the unvail the tax bill today but gop leaders hammering out pretty important details. house ways and means chair, they say a white house aid tells us it will allow more time to dissolve differences. changes to retirement savings and eliminating state and local tax deductions. they both help pay for tax cuts but they don't want to touch the state deduction. ryan said the gop may release significant details today. one new addition is keeping the top tax rate. they cut from 39.6 down to 39%. it would be a tax cut. it prompted criticism. looks like maybe that higher tax rate will stay in there. we don't know what income brackets we are talking about

here. >> okay. standby. as soon as we get details about that you will parse it for us. president trump blaming chuck for how this terrorist suspect got in in the first place. we'll ask him what he knows about this next. hey hun, huh! we gotta go. come on. ♪ "grandma! grandpa!" ♪ thanks mom. here we are. look, right up to here. principal. we can help you plan for that.

spent the night at the hospital with the suspect and actually talking to him. we were told he has been somewhat cooperative and providing some information, and the sources i talked to caution that, you know, they would not necessarily describe him as being overly cooperative but he has been providing some information to them, so this is helping investigators as they try to piece together exactly what happened here. we also have learned that overnight investigators, the fbi and the nypd have been able to find -- they found social media, various social media accounts that are linked to this suspect that contained isis-related material. now the officials are telling us that the accounts were not necessarily in his name but they have been able to link those accounts to him and have found isis-related material on them.

we are told search warrants were conducted overnight and they have talked to his family in new jersey, and his family is safe, we are told, and they are providing information. some other key aspects, chris, as they go through the investigation, the key for them now is to find out what he was radicalized. was this a spur of the moment attack or something he planned over time? i spoke to one official that said they believe this may have been planned and it was not a spur of the moment type of attack because what their thinking is he had to have known where he could take the pickup truck, where he could get on to the bike path without those barriers, and there are barriers along the west side highway where this attack occurred, and he seemed to know one stretch of a couple blocks where there are no barriers and that's where he mounted on to the bike path.

there are lots of clues to work with, and there will be a press conference by the nypd and fbi at 11:00 a.m. >> please bring us anymore information from your reporting as soon as you get it from investigators. thank you for that breaking news. let's discuss this and so much more with republican congress, jim jordan, of ohio. let's start with this attack in new york. the president just tweeted, he said the terrorists came into our country through the diversity visa lottery program, a chuck schumer beauty. i want merit base that had that how is this chuck schumer's fault? >> senator cotton, and senator purdue have legislation that would eliminate that, and i support that and i think it's good common sense and the president supports that and it's something we need to do. today our heart goes out to the

folks who have been impacted by this evil terrorist act, that program needs to know and i don't know if it was a bill that chuck schumer sponsored or what, but it needs to go. >> chuck schumer did sponsor it, it was signed into law in 1990 by president george h.w. bush. >> what we know is the situation today, and common sense will tell you it's time to change the immigration program, this diversity visa program needs to go. that's what the legislation would do. if you talk to the american people, they would say, yeah, that makes good common sense when since 1990 this terrorists threat has taken on a whole new form as we all know too well and let's change it and do what we campaign on. pretty simple what the focus of our job should be? we told the american people we

would build a wall and have stronger vetting for refugees and folks that come into our country and this diversity visa program is something that should be changed, and let's pass legislation and do everything we can to address these situations, and hopefully prevent more of them from happening in the future. >> it's a fair conversation for us to have, obviously, this morning. it's 15 million people apply for it from around the globe every year, and only 50,000 make it in, and it's supposed to continue america's representation and history as a melting pot, and so it's open to countries where not a lot of immigrants come from, and why make an attack on chuck schumer this morning? >> you will have to ask the president that. but the underlying point is right. this is a program that needs to change and this is a program that needs to be eliminated. it was just a few weeks ago when

senator cotton and purdue unveiled the legislation here. and the american people said this is something that needs to be passed. today is a day where we pray for the families that have been impacted, and i support what the president wants to do and senator cotton wants to do. >> let's talk about what happened earlier on monday as you watched paul manafort and rick gates surrender to the fbi? >> looks like they have done things wrong. that's why you have a trail, and they have plead not guilty. the indictment goes from 2005 to 2015, prior to any trump campaign, and there's nothing in the indictment that talks about collusion between the trump campaign and russia. here's what we do know, alisyn, we know the obama justice

department tried to influence the campaign last year with mr. comey calling it a matter and not an investigation, and loretta lynch meeting on the tau mack three days before clinton was scheduled to be interviewed by the fbi, and we learned last week if there was any collusion it was hillary clinton's campaign paying for the dossier. i think that's important news and why it's important that we are going to investigate those issues moving forward, and we should have done that a long time ago. >> why do you seem more focused on hillary clinton and what happened then than on a investigation connected to a sitting president and the election a year ago? >> i am interested in the facts.

why would comey call the matter and not an investigation? three days before the fbi is scheduled to meet with hillary clinton, and the attorney general and bill clinton meet on the tarmac. i am focused on the facts did the dnc -- >> you are more interested in the hillary clinton facts -- >> because there is no evidence of any collusion between the trump campaign and russia but there are all kinds of evidence showing links between the clinton campaign and the dossier, and the dossier became the catalyst for the -- >> congressman, paul manafort had three different passports, and he applied for ten passports -- >> if he did things wrong --
