details about sergeant bowe bergdahl's years as a prisoner and recovery at a military hospital. i'm jon scott. jenna: hi, everybody, i'm jenna lee. as bergdahl continues to recover in germany, he has yet to speak to his family according to reports, and there's more fallout there the prisoner exchange that also freed five top taliban commanders from guantanamo bay. secretary of state john kerry speaking out on this for the very first time calling the idea that the released detainees could put u.s. troops in danger, quote, bologna. bret, what do you make of that language? >> well, it's interesting. good morning, jenna. i tell you, it is -- the secretary of state was asked specifically about u.s. soldiers being in danger because of this in afghanistan, and his round about way including that phrase, baloney, was to say that the u.s. won't be there and, therefore, we wouldn't be in an
8:01 am
attack from these guys. dianne feinstein, the democratic chair of the senate intelligence committee, pushed back on secretary kerry, mentioning it this weekend, saying that she is concerned about these five guys in doha, qatar, and she's concerned a about the possibility that they may launch attacks against u.s. interests sometime down the road. jenna: we still have 32,000 troops in afghanistan at this time, and can although we are signaling the end of our combat operations in afghanistan; we have yet to receive that same signal from our enemy, bret. so as we look at this story over the last ten days, what more do we know about how this story perhaps plays into our overall strategy in afghanistan? >> it's really interesting this is being characterized as a prisoner of war situation where the war comes to an end, and you exchange prisoners. this was never what this was. and, you know, the fight, the terrorist action that the taliban is tied to al-qaeda
8:02 am
and these five guys have a big history with the core al-qaeda that you hear so much about, that doesn't end when u.s. troops pull out of afghanistan. there is still an effort on the terrorist side to strike against the u.s., the devil as they call us, and to make an impact. and that's not just ending with the signing treaty. >> have you heard anything else, pret, perhaps on any movement when it comes to guantanamo pay? and, again, taking a look at the major themes of this bergdahl story, what this could mean for the future of guantanamo bay? >> it may actually make it harder for a clearout of some of those people being held at guantanamo bay because of the focus that this particular trade has received and the pushback it is get trg not only republicans -- from not only republicans, but democrats. clearly it is a goal of this administration to close guantanamo bay. it was the thing that the
8:03 am
president signed in the first day in office, and it has never happened. and i think that this whole story does generate and circle around the effort to clear out gitmo. jenna: a lot of political questions, of course, around that. just quickly as we take a look at the week ahead, we have a va hearing tonight on capitol hill, we also have secretary hagel going to capitol hill on wednesday, and he'll surely be asked about this story. in the meantime, e president today is going to be making remarks about student loans. why? why is the president turning to that topic today? >> he's trying to turn to any topic that is not this topic and not the va. this executive order that he will sign today about student loans, while it raises the issue and helps push forward a's of legislation that's in the -- a piece of legislation that's in the senate and supported, it doesn't actually take effect for 18 months. so it doesit's not really the year of action with this executive order. he's trying to talk about a lot of things besides these topics.
8:04 am
i the el you this just quickly -- i tell you this just quickly, jenna, just anecdotally from around the country veterans and active duty, there's a lot of vitriol about this whole thing compounded with the va scandal, and it's not good in polls across the country. jenna: not good for politics, bret, or not good just in general for the country as a whole when it comes to leadership? >> respecting the military side of things, i can just tell you the pushback you get just listening to folks around the country is that there is this angst about this, and the treatment of the u.s. military, and it's showing up in polls, and that's a negative for the administration and for democrats who are frustrated. jenna: seems like there's a lot of valid questions out there, and the conversation continues. bret, great to see you, we'll see you in another couple hours. 6 p.m., "special report. jon: there are new allegations against a va facility with
8:05 am
claims more than 100 veterans had to wait three months for appointments at a va hospital in kansas. as congressional leaders push for solutions to the mounting scandal that revealed veterans have even died waiting on medical care. doug mckelway live in washington. >> reporter: hi, jon. yeah, the beau pirg call the controversy took a little bit of the controversy off the crisis as did the resignation of eric shinseki. but congress is moving full speed ahead with proposed changes to the beleagured va as more horror stories of bad care continue to surface. the mccain-sanders pill would authorize va to hire more doctors and nurses. it would also address what critics say is the fundamental flaw of the socialized medicine approach the care. the bill that would allow those vets who experience choice times of 0 days or more a -- 30 days or more a card to seek private care.
8:06 am
sanders wants those fired to have the right to an expedited appeal. >> my view is that those employees deserve due process. and i say that because i don't want to see a situation where a new president comes in and for political reasons fires 400 top executives because they're democrats or because they're republicans or whatever. >> reporter: there is also a move to deny some senior executives the performance bonuses which are handed out so freely across the federal government, often with little evidence of good performance. but some suggest congress may with throwing the baby out with the bath water. >> is what you're saying is you're hoering the bar and saying -- lowering the bar and saying, hey, everybody's out there, we're kind of presuming everybody's doing a bad job instead of recognizing those people who really are doing exemplary work. >> reporter: tonight the veterans affairs committee holds another nighttime hearing. senior executives from the va
8:07 am
and the va inspector general's office are all expected to testify. jon? jon: lots of information to get to in this one. doug mckelway, thank you. jenna: we're continuing to follow a big story out of las vegas today where we're waiting for a news conference on a shooting rampage that left three innocent people dead. a man and a woman, apparently, shot two police officers at point-blank range as they were eating lunch, then moved on to a nearby walmart and shot another person before killing themselves. adam houseley is live with this story out of los angeles with more for us now. >> reporter: yeah, jenna, we are expecting a press conference this morning to give us more details about officially what they're going to say, but this really is a tragedy for the las vegas community. two police officers are having lunch at a cece's pizza yesterday. as one is going up to refill his soft drink, a woman approaches him, shoots him in the back of the head and kills him instantly, then shoots the other officer. we're told the other officer did return fire, but he would later
8:08 am
die at a local hospital. those two suspects, apparently a husband and wife who live inside downtown las vegas. then about five minutes later went across the street to a nearby walmart. they shot an innocent woman inside the front door. we're told another patron at wal-mart may have returned fire. we haven't gotten that yet confirmed by las vegas police, but then those two individuals go inside the store, tell everybody to get out. she would shoot the man and then shoot herself, thus killing themselves inside the store. five bodies all told. we're now hearing there neighbors talking about this couple who apparently were militant. take a listen. >> they said they were going to go underground, and they were going to do what they had to do to take over the government, that's what they said. people can talk, and they did, and they kept talking and kept talking. damn if they didn't do what they said they were going to do, and that's so damn depressing. >> reporter: that was a neighbor who didn't want her face shown talking about the two
8:09 am
suspects who killed, again, two officers and an innocent woman inside the walmart. as the investigation continue, we are hearing more about the two officers that were killed. we're told that the one, alan beck, was 41 years old, had three children. he was shot as well as igor solo who was 31 years old and had a young child, a baby, actually. both were married, had been on the force for some time. and even taught skills training for the department, a very sad day in las vegas. really a lot of questions that need to be answered as we go forward and as this investigation goes forward, jenna, and we'll make sure we get that information for you from las vegas. jenna: in the meantime, prayers for those families today, adam. what a horrible story. >> reporter: absolutely. absolutely. jon: that is one of the stranger ones we've ever heard. a trial begins today for a beauty spa owner with a history of run-ins with the law. the latest on her case on charges of illegally injecting

go further than the regular tuition room and board they currently pay their college athletes. it doesn't seem like the house and going to tackle that or congress is going to tackle that issue any time soon. beyond that there's also questions if these court cases go through, if they do side with the athletes, exactly how much should they be paid, which universities should pay their athletes so it's become a nationwide discussion. >> some discussions are reportable. which is your college team? do you have a favorite? >> i am an alum of rutgers university. we had a pretty rough go my four years there. we probably won six or seven football games, i think, over four years. >> you win some, you lose some. >> got better after i left. nothing to do with me. >> controversy still raging over the taliban prisoner swap. media reports have been all loefr the place on this story. vanity fair article last week

the celebration before it was out there. >> and then when susan rice got clobbered for it, she said it again to prove she really means it. she's obviously won the prize for the most verbally incompetent national security adviser in u.s. history. the most incompetent overall remains to be seen. look. you just can't talk -- whether the guy was crazy or not, or metally disturbed or not, the fact that he was a deserter seems to be inunquestion -- unquestionable. >> we're making -- there are death threats against his family. you have a group of republicans putting soldiers out there to trash him publicly. you've got people going on television like john mccain who left a briefing to actually hold a news conference to say he wasn't getting enough information.
8:34 am
chambliss left a briefing to say we're not getting enough information. they could have stayed at the briefing to get the information. >> the briefing, i guarantee they wouldn't have heard anything. the administration is not talking. i got let that go unchallenged. those were the soldiers at his unit, alan. the guys who served next to him. as they said on megan kelly's show last week, we would have given our lives for this guy even though he turned around and deserted us. you can't argue with that. >> you have a republican operative used to work for romney, organizing people to go on television to trash this guy before you have all the information. trash his family. it's clearly the lowest form of politics we could be playing here >> that doesn't mean that the stories that they are telling are not true, alan. >> it's one side of the story. the media seems to be on this push to trash him to the point where they had to actually postpone a welcoming homecoming
8:35 am
celebration because of death threats the family is getting. >> the "new york times" yesterday trashed the unit, the "new york times" said that the unit is raggedy. >> what they said was, what that article said was one of the commanders had to leave the unit. there's some questions about the command of the unit. is that true are it's not true? were they lying that there was command issues in the unit? maybe that's what bergdahl was reacting to. who knows what emotional issues he was going through? >> why did the other guys stay loyal? >> i'm sure the next time they're promoted by republicans in order to trash what the administration is doing, we can ask them and find out. >> it's not the first time that media advisers have stepped in to help people tell a story, alan. it doesn't necessarily mean that the story these guys are telling is not what happened. >> we're getting one side of the story. we're not waiting long enough to find out what were the consensus being captured around the
8:36 am
taliban, how was he treated, how did he get to the taliban in the first place? we don't know the answers to that yet before we're already busy trashing him and his family. >> we're part of the reason we're not hearing bergdahl's side of the story, he's not talking which tells you something. the taliban, the gois who released him are already talking. >> they're not talking when he just got released, when he was in germany under medical care still? >> they're sitting on him because they're afraid what he'll say. >> the taliban has provided more information about his release and how it came about than the obama administration. >> i'm sure we can believe the taliban. all of a sudden, let's believe the taliban. >> record of administration on things like benghazi proves you can sit through a jay carney press conference that you can talk for hours and not learn a thing. jon: we can listen to you guys talk for hours but we can't. >> pick the taliban over the
8:37 am
white house in terms of information. jon: we have to leave it there. thanks, guys. jenna: as we take a look at media coverage, one of the big questions is about what happened to these five now released taliban members who are in qatar at this time. we don't know a whole lot of details what they're doing but amy kellogg is live with more for us. >> there's been an upsurge in taliban or taliban presumed violence in pack tan and afghanistan the last few days and it's not clear whether this is in any way connected to a possible boost in morale the taliban has got from this prisoner exchange. but it is definitely something that is worth considering here as we look at the whole story. in the meantime, here in qatar, people with informed opinions are hoping that exposure to life in a much more open society than the taliban are used to will possibly change or at least enlighten the five former gtmo prisoners who have been here for
8:38 am
a week now. qatar, hot, traditional, on the one hand, modern and cosmopolitan on the other considers it has an important peace making role in the region, if not in the world. they see their role as trying to remote moderate islam so they're accused of funding extremists in libya and syria, something they deny. when it comes to this particular deal with the taliban, they feel that getting bowe bergdahl home was very important. >> united states has done a good thing as people see here to get their boy over there in afghanistan. >> now, i think that it's going to be very interesting in the coming weeks to see what sort of analysis is put on the taliban which in light of all of this violence has been under the spotlight for maybe being splintering into different factions and whether qatar can have any positive role going forward. we simply don't know. in the 1990's when the taliban
8:39 am
was in power in afghanistan, extreme countries that recognize the taliban as a way of hopefully having some pressure influence on them. effectively, that didn't work out as we know. there was war in the end. now qatar is stepping in and it's just not clear whether they will simply be a holding pen for these guys for a year as we hope it will be a year, that they don't escape before then or whether, in fact, there's something else going on that will lead to peace negotiations nearby in afghanistan. jenna: it's a big, lingering question and an important one to watch. thank you. >> he went on on angry rant on national television after his horse failed to win the triple crown this weekend. what one of california chrome's owners is saying now about his comments immediately after the race. and wall street up again today but how long can we expect these record breaking games to last? charlie from the fox business

all three events. jenna: well, we continue to watch this story in california chrome because it's a great story but that got a little weird on saturday. so we'll continue to watch that one. jon: you feel bad. these guys came out of nowhere with that horse. jenna: a lot of emotion involved. in the meantime, stocks are picking up off another record close on friday. take a look at the dow. it's up again today. for the dow and the s&p 500 we've seen records really over the last week or so and it continues. s&p 500 is up more than 175% since 2009. in fact, the stock market really hasn't taken a breather since august of 2011. some analysts say we're overdo. what are the questions we're asking today? is it time to take another look at your 401k's because of what's going on or should we let the good times roll? charlie, what do you think about this rally? >> you know, i'm always a dow
8:47 am
gay. there isn't a sophisticated guy i know, who says that they're not -- they're all nervous. they all think that something bad is going to happen. they're all being very defensive. if you're an average investor out there, you have to kind of listen to them, be defensive here, take some off the table but i will say this and here is the caveat here and this is why it's very possible this thing can go to 18,000 on the dow and go higher on the s&p 500. shoe shine boy is not giving stock advice right now. average retail investor has not jumped in and usually when you see these market tops, it's when the average guy starts to pile in to stocks, pushing it up to irrational exuberance level. jenna: when? >> retail investors are so scared about the future. they bought the line that the stock market is going to implode like it did in 2009 a lot are in gold. they think the fed has inflated
8:48 am
the economy beyond all reason. jenna: are they right? >> they are right. they will be right in 10 years from now. they are not right now. that's the fatal mistake they made. just allowing their sort of hatred for president obama's economic policies to be morphed into a rocketplay. take some money, put it in an s&p 500 fund. and let it ride up. it's very cheap. i will say this. right now i would be defensive but until you see the market change dramatically, you have to play in it. it's almost impossible to be out of it. by the way, you'll know when it starts to implode. it will implode fast. they're still printing a lot of money. jenna: there's a different between an implosion and a correction. we haven't seen a correction in several years. in fact, longer than usually goes by before you see a pullback in the market of 10% which is enough to make you a little nervous, a little humble.
8:49 am
>> 10% is pretty big. you get scared about that. jenna: what do you make of that, the fact there hasn't been that correction? is it just around the corner as some think? >> here is why david would say he's scared. when you have sort of a market that's primarily reliant on the fed printing money and some very modest economic growth, it's hard to figure out next. i will just say this. you can't fight the fed. the fed is still very interventionous, keeping interest rates at zero, principling money at a lesser pace. when you do that sort of stuff, this market goes up. the retail is still not in this thing. when the dumb money has not committed to this and i would be scared if i -- if t.d.ameritrade and all of these online accounts say they are getting record numbers, i would be pulling out at that minute but i would be defensive, watch this stuff, take a little off the table but do you know what? i think this thing could go to
8:50 am
18,000. it is crazy. jenna: you mentioned the s&p 500 and didn't say take your money to the horse track like the previous story before that. it's no big deal. >> you don't have to buy stock, don't have to pay a lot of fees. jenna: we appreciate being inside the great reporting. thank you. jon: planes collide on the ground at a major airport. how it happened we're live with the breaking news desk with that. plus one of new jersey governor william kristoly's closest aides is testifying about the hearing on the george washington bridge lane closures. when he said the governor found out about them. we're live with that story.
8:54 am
jenna: the f.a.a. is investigating a collision at boston's logan airport. patti ann browne has this story. >> this morning a southwest airlines plane was backing out of its gate when passengers felt a bump. it turns out the wing of the boeing 737 hit the tail wing of a jet blue plane parked outside the gate. this photo we're going to show you clearly shows the gash left in the southwest plane's left wing after it collided with the right horizontal stabilizer of the jet blou plane. the airbus 320 was empty. southwest flight was scheduled to leave boston for kansas city just after 7:00 this morning. the planes were separated around 8:00 a.m. and the southwest jet was taken out of service. no one was hurt in the incident and then the airport says operations were not affected. 108 passengers on board that south best plane were placed on other flights. f.a.a. is investigating.
8:55 am
jenna: wow. thank you. jon: some brand new developments in those lane closures on the george washington bridge that have led to so many controversy. new jersey lawmakers are hearing from one of governor christie's longest serving aides and he could shed light on when the governor found out about the lane closures. we have that story. >> hello. well, he's the highest ranking member of governor chris christie's administration to testify so far. he's chief of staff and he was the one that mr. christie directed to find out what happened with the george washington bridge lane closings. he testified this morning about various meetings he had with the governor about the lane closings after they were made public, including a meeting at the new jersey governor's mansion. mr. christie asked him to look into what happened and who knew about it. christie told him to check with bridget ann kelly, the now fired
8:56 am
chief of staff who had an infamous email. he says that he did ask kelly but she denied having anything to do with the closings and he testified that she answered, absolutely not. the sometimes contentious hearings are going on this morning. an assemblyman tried to show that no one was curious as to why the lanes were closed. he's trying to nail down the alleged motive, payback against a democratic mayor for not endorsing christie election. he did detail a december 12 meeting he had with governor christie. >> he said to me something to the effect of this bridge issue is still out there. the noise on political retribution is still out there. this is a major distraction. i need to you talk to brigitte kelly and ask her whether or not she had anything to do with lowing the lanes at the bridge. >> christie long denied he had anything to do with it.
