i have been called a trogladyte. thanks for watching tonight. ms. megyn is next. i'm bill o'reilly. please remember the spin stops here cause we're definitely looking out for you. breaking tonight, the terror army known as isis sends a new and horrifying message to america as it releases yet another gruesome video that america's national security council says appears to be authentic. welcome to "the kelly file" everyone. i'm megyn kelly. alan henning, a british citizen, was reportedly kidnapped months ago while on an aid mission trying to help those suffering in syria. today, isis released video of his apparent execution, beheaded like three others before him in recent videos. also in this new tape a new warning about u.s. aid worker peter kassig. he is an army veteran from indiana who traveled overseas to

help syrian refugees. he is 26 years old. before starting his own aid group shortly thereafter. the masked terrorist in the video says kassig, the american, will be next. and in their now trademark style the group is pointing the finger of blame directly at president obama. our breaking news coverage starts tonight with trace gallagher who has more on kassig's story. trace. >> and, megyn, in the video 26-year-old peter kassig is seen wearing an orange jumpsuit held by the masked gunman who says if obama continues air strikes, they will continue to strike at our people. it was during his tour of duty in iraq that he volunteered as a medic and became interested in helping people in war zones. after coming back to indiana he became a certified emergency medical technician, and that's when he founded the syrian refugee aid group. and it was during his first aid mission dropping off supplies that he was kidnapped. now, the details around the

kidnapping are vague, but back in february long before we knew about isis he knew the risk saying during an interview that "you have to be really careful, extremely patient and very conscience of every impact you're going to have on the population." cair issued a statement, quoting here, we ask everyone around the world to pray for the henning family, for our son, and for the release of all innocent people being held hostage in the middle east. again, megyn, it does not look good considering the history we have seen in the past four beheadings. megyn. >> prayers indeed. trace, thank you. joining me now, pete hegsheath. prayers are a given. he clearly needs those, pete. but we also have a very powerful u.s. military. and many americans are wondering why aren't we using more of them to try to save these americans,

two already beheaded, one scottish man beheaded and now a british national beheaded, and another american on deck. why aren't we doing more to stop it? >> great question. and, you know, this isis, british, the guy who's beheading, johnny jihad, cutting the heads off americans and brits, when we send boots on the ground to go find him, what are the criteria by which we will hunt down and kill those beheading british allies and now an army ranger? a fellow american who they have in their grasp and are threatening to take next. this is not about academic discussions anymore, megyn. this is about our citizens and citizens of our allies literally being murdered before our eyes, taunting us before the camera. and we are talking about what we won't do, megyn, as opposed to what we will do. and we need obviously -- and there's other developments today as far as advances isis has made. they're not on their heels.

they're still in the advance. right now we're not bringing the right tools in order to bear to defeat them. >> by the same token you could argue we can't base our foreign policy based on the terrorist tactics of these barbarians. maybe we did. maybe we went over there and started bombing syria and iraq in a way we wouldn't have in the wake of the two earlier beheadings of americans. but can we continue to change our military policy as they continue to up the ante? >> well, i think we have to understand what they're attempting to do. this is an understanding of the nature of the enemy. not just a slitting of a throat and a video camera and video. it's understanding what the islamic caliphate is seeking to establish and how they're seeking to export that. you've seen reported on the threats to american veterans here at home and how they're trying to export that very terror. it's not just about reacting to that tape. it's knowing what they want to do and the advances that they've made. and that right now on the ground as far as forces able to push

them back, they're very, very limited. and so i know our pentagon is attempting to take this very seriously, but if a national security council and white house level there's pushback because there's political angst frankly to be honest before this election to do anything but look dangerous and difficult as opposed to looking at all our assets and deciding what the best military strategy is going forward. this feels more political than military. and for the boots on the ground that we have, which we're calling non-boots on the ground, they're chomping at the bit to make advances against an enemy near turkey and hit anbar province -- >> i want to ask you about the threats on the military as a high profile veteran yourself in a minute. first i want to speak to you about the problems we're having with these air strikes as you point out. fighters on the ground, everyone some of our allies according to the latest news week will recall isis needs another strategic

city in iraq, gained control of army base, tanks, other security installations in just the last two weeks. and those who are working with us are saying the air strikes aren't working. they're not getting it done. so what will it take then, do you think, to make the president do more? >> well, i don't know what -- how much more it will have to take to get the president to do more. today the fact turkey wants to contribute ground troops and they voted in their parliament to attribute ground troops. but you read in the fine print and they say they don't want to send them immediately and more likely to want to send them to face bashar al assad than isis. australia has mentioned potentially contributing ground troops, but even then the rules of engagement are very limited. >> and for our troops some are saying these air strikes general keane said have been hampered by what he says are overly restrictive rules of engagement for the guys who are actually executing it. and women. i want to ask you this because we're short on time. i have to ask you about this threat to soldiers, isis putting

out this bulletin to its fighters trying to turn the attack on civilians here. i mean, soldiers here in america who are in their civilian gear who are walking around living their normal lives not over there fighting. how is this affecting you? how is it affecting men and women you know? >> it's very sobering, megyn. i mean, it's terrorism. it's terrorism at its root. when you have family, wives, kids and you realize that the enemy there is seeking to strike you here, it reminds you the very nature of this enemy. everyone takes it seriously. and personally we take it seriously. and those i know take it seriously because the threat stream doesn't just end there. there's very direct threats against americans in this country that reverberate back to the perception on the battlefield that they're making an advance, megyn. if they were on their heels, this wouldn't be as clear and present as it is, which is why it's so unfortunate. >> our military had to put out an advisory this week just warning veterans to be careful, to be extra mindful of their safety, to not post publicly their location on their phones

and so on and so forth. >> yeah. >> pete, all the best to you. >> thank you, megyn. >> our coverage on this breaking news turns next to a fierce fight in washington today as a former defense secretary leon panetta suggests that president obama bears some of the responsibility for the mess now unfolding in both iraq and syria. that's a new leak from the new book he's putting out that came out today. up next, ed henry, kirsten powers and chris stirewalt with where that battle is going. >> megyn, are you arguing that 10,000 troops or 5,000 troops or 25,000 troops would have prevented, would have been able to fight back against isil when 150 or 175,000 couldn't have held back entirely al chi da? >> it's not megyn kelly arguing it. it's leon panetta. r choices in . know that proper allocation could help increase returns so you can enjoy that second home sooner.

fight rages in washington over a new book by former defense secretary leon panetta, a man who worked for bill clinton and worked for barack obama for years who is now publicly suggesting the obama administration bears some of the responsibility for this mess we're watching in iraq and syria. i put that question to state department spokeswoman jen psaki on this program last night. he had basically won the war after those 175,000 troops were there. we had won. the vice president said that iraq could go down as the administration's greatest success. things changed after we did the surge in iraq. we were doing much better. and then the president's critics say we snatched defeat from the jaws of victory because we pulled out the troops and there was no one there to protect the gains. >> but, megyn, are you arguing that 10,000 troops or 5,000 troops or 25,000 troops would have prevented -- would have been able to fight back against isil when 150 or 175,000 couldn't have held back entirely al qaeda? >> it's not megyn kelly arguing

it. it's leon panetta who's in a much better position to know. he talks about how i voiced to the president that this country could become a new haven for terrorists to plot attacks against the united states if we withdrew all the forces. isn't that exactly what happened? >> that is not what happened. >> well, the debate did not end there. the white house pushed back today, hard. and chief white house correspondent ed henry picks it up from there. >> good evening, megyn. the president's advisors usually don't get into a tit-for-tat tell alls dismissively telling us we don't do book reviews here. but leon panetta's memoirs are so writerring they are striking back and striking back quickly. the president's foreign policy has been in his words marked by hesitation and half steps. he particularly takes strong m hom -- saying "the result i felt

was a blow to american credibility as the president as commander in chief draw a red line it is critical he act if the line is crossed. the power of the united states rests on its word. assad clearly defied president obama's warning, by failing to respond it sent the wrong message to the world." vice president joe biden has pushed back on that as well as the claim -- on whether or not to arm the syrian rebels made the syrian crisis much worse. biden hitting hard on that question. listen. >> i'm finding that former administration officials who -- book which is inappropriate, at any rate. no, i'm serious. give the guy a chance to get out of office. >> panetta does in the book give credit for fixing the economy and says he went on offense against terrorists. but panetta does go after him over iraq. and the question about leaving u.s. troops behind you've heard

the president and his aides say many times that was the fault of then-iraqi prime minister nouri al maliki refusing to give legal authority to u.s. troops that might stay behind. panetta says, no, they could have threatened to cut off aid to iraq, but the president was determined to be done with iraq at all costs. the president though for his part doesn't seem too phased by the book. on tuesday doing fund raising in new york and connecticut. wednesday he goes to the pentagon to get an update on isis, but thursday heads off to california for three more days of fund raising. megyn. >> ed henry, thank you. joining me now, kirsten powers, fox news political analyst, and chris stirewalt, fox news digital politics editor. so let's just say -- slets just call it as it is. president obama's repeated statements that the reason he pulled all those troops out of iraq was because he couldn't get a status of forces agreement is a misrepresentation. that is a dodge. because what everyone now is saying underneath him from

panetta to gates to clinton is he could have gotten one if he had pushed harder. she spoke more to the syrian rebels, but the first two. he could have gotten it if he pushed harder as the state department was urging him to do, as the defense department was urging him to do. is that it, chris? >> well, we see the magnitude of the division in this administration. we see when leon panetta talks about our side. he's talking about the joint chiefs. he's talking about hillary clinton, david petraeus and cia. he's talking about the hawkish side in the administration in a fight essentially with politically the component at the white house over whether or not that would be acceptable. and it's a division that continues to play out to this day when we talk about what is the response to isis. >> kirsten, that's fine, so there is a division between the pentagon, the state department, the cia, intel and the white house. great.

that happens. barack obama was elected promising to get us out of iraq. so have the guts to come out and look at the american people and say, yes, they were telling you to stay but i ran on a promise to get us out. and i did it and i stand behind it. why doesn't he level with us? >> i don't know. and i think that this leon panetta book is probably the most damning thing that has happened yet because panetta has such standing. obviously is in a position to know exactly what happened. he's somebody who is -- has no ideological or partisan acts to grind. he's a loyal democrat. he served in the clinton administration. he was a member of congress as a democrat. and this is somebody who i think is telling a very different story. and even if the administration could say, well, we couldn't ultimately get the status of forces agreement, what panetta is saying is he doesn't think they were even willing to try. and that was a very different story. >> always refused to exercise

the leverage they had. >> i also think, look, i mean his overall -- i mean, it's a pretty astonishing -- these are astonishing statements, i think, coming from leon panetta. he's basically damning his foreign policy. it's not just about the status of forces agreement. >> it cuts right to the issue. cuts right to the quick. we are right now in a war in the middle east. we're bombing parts of the middle east right now, chris. thanks to a president who said we were going to get out of the middle east, we didn't want to get bogged down there, tied down there, but now we're bombing them. and the question is how did we get in this position? we've been debating for the last six years who had the right foreign policy approach? was it president bush who was so much more aggressive and really thought we should take the fight to the terrorists and be this strong robust foreign policy and presence? or barack obama who said if you leave them alone they're more likely to leave us alone and i'll do the outreach to the muslim countries and this will make us safer. and what we're seeing today is we're not much safer. >> well, certainly the american people don't think so.

and i'll put it to you this way, counselor, would you buy a used foreign policy from this man? i don't think so. i think that currently the president's credibility and as kp points out, this book piles on far beyond what we already heard from robert gates, what we already heard from secretary clinton, about what's wrong, about what is essentially a brokenness inside this administration and inside this president about being able to stick in the fight and stay in the hard place and do the politically painful, do the politically uncomfortable thing. and we have seen it in afghanistan. we see it playing out in horror stories in libya right now. and we are starting it again. and the record is playing again. and the question is can this president build a coalition domestically and internationally to deal with this given a track record that is bourn out in a book like this. >> it looks like the strings are being pulled by the pollsters or valerie jar et as we're going to

talk about later. the question is whether we've had an answer on what foreign policy works and that's what he keeps dodging. i have to ask you this before i let you go, kirsten. panetta is a clinton guy. is there a political aspect of this? she's going to run. she's been distancing herself from the obama policies. >> i don't think so. he's not an operator in that way, i don't think. and i think the kinds of criticism that he's making are so substantive and specific, i don't think he would try to do that just -- >> thank you both. >> thank you. >> you bet. this fight over iraq is the latest in a series of arguments about what the government says is happening and what appears to actually be happening. is this creating a crisis of confidence? governor mike huckabee is here on that. plus, breaking news next on new steps to quarantine more americans possibly infected with or at least exposed to ebola and whether or not the feds can prevent new cases from flying to the united states.

can the president do it or can't he? wait until you hear the answer. >> the cdc last week said the chances of importing ebola is infinitesimal and that same day a patient diagnosed in dallas. m♪ there's never been a better time to come to bass pro shops than right now. announcer: bass pro shops is the place for huge savings. like our lowest price ever on a spring steel blind, now under $40. and rugged, lockable plano storage totes starting at just $10.

breaking new details out of dallas, texas, where the first person to be diagnosed with the ebola virus on u.s. soil is being treated. we're learning just now that the four people who have been confined over the last several days in the apartment they shared with this patient, thomas duncan, have now been transported to a private house in dallas county. casey seagal is live in dallas with the latest. casey. >> yeah, megyn, those were family members of patient-zero as he's being called whisked away carefully. take a look at the pictures when

it happened this afternoon. the county judge assisting in the evacuation process not wearing a bit of protective clothing. just incredible. they have been relocated to this private gated residence in an area away from other homes and apartments where they will continue to be under quarantine. this as hazmat crews worked for hours today at that apartment complex removing everything from inside that unit, scrubbing every surface with bleach. there was a delay in the process because even special permits had to be secured to transport all of the hazardous material away. the cdc saying tonight out of the 100 people they have investigated who came into contact with this patient in texas, ten now considered high risk exposures and require extra health monitoring though they would not say who. meantime an nbc news freelance photographer working in liberia now has come down with this virus. the american journalist will be flown to nebraska's medical

center in omaha for treatment on monday. and all of this as two patients are being monitored this evening in hospitals across the washington, d.c. area showing signs, symptoms of the ebola virus though they have not been officially tested and diagnosed with ebola. megyn. >> casey, thank you. and now new questions are being raised about why the administration isn't doing more to prevent a potential outbreak of a disease that has killed over 3,000 people in west africa. just yesterday the cdc director rejected the idea of imposing a travel ban on countries hit with the virus calling the solution quick and simple and wrong. jay christian former d.o.j. attorney and legal editor for p.j. media. it's a virus that's spreading like wildfire overseas. but they've said that they could contain it and that it was very unlikely, the president said, that it would come here. does he, now that it is here,

have the legal authority to put a stop to these flights? >> he does, megyn. i reported today that federal law gives the president broad discretionary authority to stop people from these countries. it says he can ban entry for the interests -- if they're detrimental to the interests of the united states. all he has to do is issue a proclamation, write a paragraph, sign the paper, stop people from sierra leone, guinea and liberia and maybe nigeria from coming into the united states. right now over the atlantic a fully-loaded delta 767, flight 479 is coming from liberia to land at jfk tomorrow morning. it's been happening every day for a month while this crisis has melted down. and they haven't done a single thing about it. >> direct flights. so he could do it with a stroke

of a pen. the pen and phone he's so fond of using, he could easily use them to stop these direct flights from this suffering country into the united states. >> well, he could also ban all passport holders from these countries. or anybody who has an entry and exit stamp on their passport for visiting these countries. >> the defenders say, the people who don't want the ban say that would only hurt us because they say the reality is people would get through. and what we really need to do is shut down ebola in these african countries and wipe it up there. and we can't do that if we tell americans who want to go over there, good doctors who want to go other there and help them, you may get out but you're never getting back in because we're going to ban you. >> nonsense. load up a bunch of c-130s out of the charleston air force base with supplies and doctors and do military transports back and forth. these are people like the person in dallas who vomited everywhere, who lord knows what he did on the airplane and the dulles airport.

>> he was asymptomatic in the airport. >> you don't have to be asymptomatic to spread this disease. >> they say you do. >> we'll see. >> everything on it have been sitting there in place until today with all the family members in that house, no hazmat. they've all been exposed potentially. and then we see the judge escorting them out with no hazmat suit on himself. i'll give you the last word. i got to run. >> why does this president not protect the american people? why does he care about these faculty lounge debates more than he does protecting americans from death and mayhem? it is a pattern in this administration. >> well, we'll take that up in our next segment. chris, good to see you. just last week we have seen federal officials face serious credibility issues on the issue of ebola, the protection for the president with secret service and the terror fight overseas. up next, is this producing a crisis of confidence?

from the world headquarters at fox news, it's "the kelly file" with megyn kelly. last week we have seen federal officials facing a series of credibility questions. a growing number of critics asking whether these folks are dishonest or incompetent. take iraq for example. president obama has argued for weeks that it wasn't his decision. just got this last night to pull all the troops out of that country. >> what i just find interesting is the degree to which this issue keeps oncoming up. as if this was my decision. >> now the latest by cia director and defense secretary leon panetta suggests exactly the opposite. that experts encouraged the

white house to keep troops there. a nightmare indeed has come to fruition. then there's oklahoma. a recent convert to islam beheads a woman on american soil after posting pictures of beheadings and islamic jihad posters on his facebook page. you can see he's fascinated by beheadings if you look at his profile online. even with osama bin laden and terrorism in general. the white house, the administration doesn't want to talk abt it. as of tonight law enforcement tells us this is simply a case of workplace violence. president obama assured us that ebola was not an immediate threat to the homeland. >> the chances of an ebola outbreak here in the united states are extremely low. we've been taking the necessary precautions including working with countries in west africa to increase screening at airports so that someone with the virus doesn't get on a plane for the united states. >> somehow ebola patient thomas

eric duncan managed to do exactly that. he flew to the u.s. from africa potentially exposing dozens and perhaps more to this often deadly virus. and there's the issue of the president's own personal safety. the last man with a knife managed to hop the white house fence, didn't get far. or so we were told. as it turned out in fact he made it well into the white house. the secret service had initially down played the whole incident but ultimately the director was forced to resign this week. and that was right after the president expressed confidence in here. then we learned that wasn't the only breach of the president's security. an armed contractor with a criminal record was already allowed on an elevator with president obama last month at the cdc. the editor in chief at the washington free beacon summing it all up this way "over the last few years the divergence between what the government promises and what it delivers says it's happening or will happen and what actually is happening and does happen between what it determines to be

important and what the public wishes to be important. this gap has become abysmal, unavoidable, inescapable. joining me now, former arkansas governor mike huckabee host of huckabee right here on the fox news channel. it's a scathing indictment. and it does make you wonder whether we're entering a crisis of confidence here. >> i think we're not just entering it. we're in the middle of it. my dad did not have much of an education. never graduated high school. but he taught me something, megyn. he said if you tell the truth, you don't have to remember what you said the last time. this is a president that can't remember what he said the last time and tells a different story every time he tells it. what happens is you lose your credibility. and the one thing, i don't care whether you're a democrat or republican, the one thing you have to have is credibility. stand before the american people and be believable. this president is no longer believable because time after time he says something but he doesn't mean anything. it's not good for the country. you know, forget about whether it's good for republicans going into an election.

this isn't good for america. >> you know, ebola and the secret service i think you can arguably give them a pass on that. ebola, look, the chances of an outbreak here are extremely low. that was true, i suppose, when he said it. or at least you could make the argument that we've taken measures to be prepared. okay. secret service he had the confidence in them. turned out not to be warranted. but the iraq story, there is a strong argument that that is directly and intentionally misleading. >> i think it didn't fit the narrative that he said we're going to get out of iraq. we're going to get out of there completely. he didn't want to be there. but the book by leon panetta -- >> why can't he own that the way he did in the presidential debate with mitt romney where he said we weren't going to keep 10,000 troops in iraq and be bogged down, tied down in the middle east. he laid it out in the debate with romney. but he won't say it now that things have fallen apart. >> that's the problem. things have fallen apart. he doesn't want to acknowledge it was his decision pulling out

completely not leaving a status of forces agreement in place that is largely responsible for the fact that this government could not contain itself. could not protect itself. >> it's not okay. i mean, i tell you, governor, it's bad enough if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor. people's health care. but we're now talking about national security and what actions create terrorists states and what actions don't. we need some straight talk on that and accountability, honesty. >> well, the difference between people will forgive a politician for saying something in a political campaign. it's a stretch of the truth. not that they should do it, but that's different. what we're talking about here is the issue of whether americans live or die. not only in terms of what's happened in iraq, but now with this ebola patient coming saying, oh, it's so unlikely it will come. we know of the one case in dallas, let's pray to god that's all we have. but the likelihood given the open sense we have of letting people in, this isn't the only

case we're going to see. that ought to scare the daylights out of everyone from the president right down to the last kitchen table in america. >> that was the follow-up on ebola. we have taken new measures so that will prepare here at home and then you hear about these four people staying in the apartment where the infected guy was throwing up for days. nobody's moving. the judge comes, gets them. they've got people delivering food. it doesn't seem like we're that prepared. >> how would you like to be an emergency room nurse somewhere in america and someone comes in and you really have to wonder if they've got fever and throwing up do they have the flu? where have they been and who have they been in contact with? >> right now. all they're relying on is their word. >> right. >> thank you for being here. see you saturday night. >> and sunday. >> it's better sunday night. >> up next, a big debate and more protests in colorado over just how patriotic our history

we begin with julie. all right, julie, walk us through it slowly. what's the matter? what are they excludeing from the history lessons that you want in? >> many of our foundational fathers are excluded from the new -- >> like who? who's out? >> ben franklin, thomas jefferson, james madison. >> oh, they are relevant. >> martin luther king jr. >> why don't they want to teach about thomas jefferson and mlk and these other figures? >> i -- well, you know, it is a brand new curriculum. and the framework is new. this year will be the first year our students will be taking the brand new test. and i'm not sure why they left those out. maybe it was because they needed to have more room to add the black panthers and other interested organizations. >> is that what's been done? >> yes. >> i know that you say it

actually goes down to sort of the lines included in the text, the framework is going to be the basis for the text. but you say it mentions slavery 26 times and doesn't include lincoln's gettysburg address. and talks about dropping the a-bomb and includes a line that says "makes one question the values of america." this is going to be the text offered to the students? >> yes. so the students textbooks will have much more information. i believe there's 28 pages on george washington, but the framework limits him to one fragmented sentence. and that just doesn't seem right to me. and so when i started reading about this and i read the framework since this has been brought to my attention, it just doesn't seem right. so i questioned it. many of the community members have come to me for approximately a year and asked to be able to give their input on curriculum. so i thought this was a good time to bring this forward.

>> who came up with this? >> with? >> with the framework that, you know, says they should question america's values and don't want to talk too much about thomas jefferson and so on? >> that's the college board. and they are a private organization. so their beholden to no one. and they are the ones that wrote it. and it went from a five-page framework to a 194-page framework. >> and so as it stands tonight do you have your way? or you still pushing for the change? >> you know, as of last night we did vote on a curriculum committee. our superintendent came forward and suggested a separate proposal from the one mr. newkirk or myself had presented. he had one, i had one. and our superintendent brought one forward that was a compromise. and it involved teachers, students and our community members.

i think it's a win for everybody. >> thank you for being here, julie. up next is shauna, a member of the jefferson county pta. she's fine with the curriculum as is and doesn't see a problem with it as outlined by our previous guest. so where is julie going wrong? >> thank you for having me. >> you bet. >> i would say that all of those items are actually included in this course. so this is an elective course. it's an a.p. course. so parents actually pay for this course. and can choose to do this to get college credit. so if you look through the curriculum, all of the items that she says are missing are actually in the curriculum. >> what about the fact that, you know, the business about the a-bomb and the description of it as it makes one question the values of america. i mean, she says that's bias and we don't need that, that's her words, in the lesson plan. >> well, i would say that there's a lot of history that

maybe isn't wonderful. but at the same time it is still part of our history. and part of the reason -- >> well, but that's a conclusion. that's a judgment. that's a value judgment that you could argue. a lot of people believe we needed to drop the bomb because we needed to ended war and needed japanese to surrender. and we saved more american lives by doing that. you could argue both ways. when you argue both ways should you include that in the text. >> i don't know there's conclusion like that in the text. >> she's got quotes around it. she says there's an actual line in there. >> that i would actually refer to an actual a.p. history teacher or education expert. >> but doesn't this concern you? i see her point which she thinks not only have they excluded historical figures or downplayed or diminished them but increased certain things in particular some of the left need more attention. she claims there's a lot of

attention on the genocide against native americans and slavery, but without offering the other side, like we fought a war to end slavery. so on. >> well, i think a lot of that is up to the teacher who's teaching the class. so, i mean, we're very fortunate in jefferson county we have some extremely well-qualified teachers who are teaching this class. another part of that is this is a top level history class. so over time you've taken all of these other classes. and you're getting lots of different pieces of history. absolutely impossible to teach all of american history in one class. >> having interviewed over the past couple of weeks bill ayers and ward churchill, i've done a lot of stories about these college professors, i think it will prepare these students perfectly for the college education where the text are going to look a lot like the ones you guys are kicking around. i thank you for being here. all the best to you. >> i would really say -- i would focus back more on the benefit for the kids at the same time

too. >> i got it. i know. a.p., a bunch of smart kids. i never took any a.p. classes. i got to go. thank you for being here. >> thank you. >> coming up, the new movie about navy s.e.a.l. chris kyle known as the most lethal sniper in u.s. history. >> your call. your customers, our financing. your aspirations, our analytics. your goals, our technology. introducing synchrony financial, bringing new meaning to the word partnership. banking. loyalty. analytics. synchrony financial. enagage with us.

bradley cooper who gained 40 pounds of bulk for the role and even trained with the s.e.a.l.s. cooper produced the film and says he spoke to chris kyle one time promising him he would be true to his story. shortly after that conversation chris kyle was shot to death at a gun range in texas. a former marine kyle was trying to help through ptsd is now on trial for the murder. we have yet to see any reaction to the trailer from kyle's family, a key focus of the movie is said to be kyle's relationship with his wife played by sienna miller and his struggle to adapt to life back home. the film was supposed to be directed by stephen spielberg. instead, clint eastwood took over. the movie comes out christmas day. megyn. >> >> trace, thank you. we're going to be right back. plus "hannity" at the top of the hour. >> anybody who has an ounce of sense knows the tag given to
