board tanks. and he could cause the nose of an aircraft to go up. those are really serious control issues. >> no kidding? >> that no passengers should have access to in an aircraft. so we have got to do something. how come you can just shimmy that off in the entertainment box if that's what's that? >> i was on one of those jets last night and i kicked it around and felt down there. it was flimsy. here is why it makes sense, because the computer that runs the airplane, is the same one that people tap in to watch the wi-fi and stuff like that. >> it's different, the newer the aircraft, the truer that is. 787's are much like that. >> disturbing. more information going to siebguy.com. >> how did this democratic lawmaker think she would get away by saying this? >> i'm going to eat with --

if donald trump were president of the united states or just as a potential candidate would you call for boots on the ground? >> well, i would have never been in iraq to be honest. in 2004, reuters did a big story. i saw it yesterday. i tried to figure it, many years i would have never ever been in iraq. >> we're in iraq now though. >> what happened is all the iraqis soldiers ran away. left our equipment there for isis to pick up. you know, isis has a very low equipment cost. every time they have a fight, iraqi soldiers run away and they pick up brand-new army tanks and guns and weapons and helicopters. we are such jerks. but the iraqi soldiers ran away, as usual. and because they have no leadership. they probably don't know what they're fighting for. something. but it's hard to say they're cowards but they have nothing to fight for. they have something wrong there h. what would i do? it's a situation that's a disgrace. we can't rebuild our own cities. we're -- look at yemen, we left

$700 million worth of equipment behind for the enemy to take. $700 million. >> let me ask you this, a lot of people in the discussion last week with jeb bush, he misheard the question. elizabeth cheney got in and posed another question would you have left iraq knowing what we know now, what position do you take on that? >> we shouldn't have been there once we were there l we probably should have stayed. there would be some semblance. the middle east has been decapitated. it's a mess. the balance has been lost between iraq and iran. things were better in the old days. these character like rubio made a total fool of himself on chris wallace's program. talking about we were better off without saddam hussein. hussein killed terrorists. he was good at that. >> hie financed them in israel

and propped up -- >> it turned out he had no weapons of mass destruction. al we went on the single basis -- we had bad intelligence. he had none. absolutely none. >> but you know every country had the same thing. >> i think that right now, we are in worse shape than we ever were. it's a mess. did you see where isis is now building luxury hotels? they're building luxury hotels because they have the oil. i always said as long as we're there, when we're there, keep the oil. everyone said that's such a horrible thing to say. i said it from the beginning. you know who has the oil, isis? they're building hotels. they're competing with trump. i don't like that. i pay 2% for my money. they pay nothing. >> you've had more appearances in iowa than marco rubio, jeb bush, chris christie combined. one thing different about you,

when you show up you don't wear flannel, jeans, you don't roll up your sleeves. you arrive in a jet and you wear your suits. what about that philosophy? >> i get the biggest crowds by far. the most standing ovations i all talk is business and common sense. i look at what's happening with china, ripping us and taking our jobs and our money. and then loaning the money back to us. they take our money, our jobs and they loan it back to us and we pay. now we owe china $1.3 trillion. they decapitated our country in terms of economics. it can be changed so easy. we have all the cards. but our leaders are incompetent. we have all the cards. it's a one day negotiation. i will let your cameras follow me during that negotiation. and you'll see what it takes. we have leaders that don't even understand we have the cards. without us, china would fail. that's how bad it is. >> mr. trump, speaking of

cameras, george stephanopoulos is the lead news guy at abc. he has apologized twice for not explaining to people he has donated up to at least $75,000 for the clinton foundation. a lot of people have donated money to the clinton foundation. he's a journalist, he's supposed to be unbiassed. as it turns out, when you look at some of the video of his interviews, he's not tough on both sides. he's mainly tough recently just on people who want to be president opposed to hillary clinton. >> except for one thing, he's always treated me nice. i don't know why. i don't get it. he's been very nice to me. i've always liked him. i think he can recover. he should have announced it or he shouldn't have apologizes. when people apologize, like the nfl commissioner when he started apologizing all the time, that's when your enemies go after you, really go after you. so i think he should have said i

did it. he said that and then he started apologizing profusely. once you apologize you're saying you're wrong. he should not have done that. i'm -- if i was representing him. with all of that being said, he should have revealed it. but he's always treated me nicely. when people treat me nicely i have to be respectful. that's why i like you folks. >> but you were in that -- being treated with respect because what you've done for us -- he said brit hume thinks he'll not sure he'll recover any time soon, would you say that? there nigmight be a credibility issue? >> that's his world. i think he will recover but it will take time. i think brit hume said he can recover, but it's going to take a period of time. the apology was a pretty profuse apology and he's done it three or four times. sometimes you have to stop apologizing, get back to work,

and do your thing. but certainly, it was something he should have revealed and he knows that. >> are you still looking at the same time line for an announcement? >> during the month of june. in my own mind, i have made up my mind. >> do you want to give us a hint? >> i just tell you we're going to make this country great again. >> i would say that's going to be a yes. >> we are going to make this country great again. and sadly i have to use the word again. right now, we are a laughing stock all over the world. >> all right. it sounds like he's about to start printing bumper stickers. we'll see you back here next monday. straight ahead a cop killer who has been on the fbi's most wanted list for a long time honored by a catholic university with that special mureal. up next the professional who sounded the alarm and why he could lose his job. crime does not pay, but that's true for this guy.

i am noticing she's not biting as hard as she can. her claws aren't out. that's another great way to see -- she's a baby. i only bring you nice animals. >> let's bring in another one. >> let me give her to dad here. if you're going to bite somebody, bite your dad. next monstirster out. this is a monitor lizard. do you want to feel the skin? >> sure. is this male or female? >> this is a guy, a male. >> did you have have to check? >> usually with these guys it is an interesting way to check. you have to go into their underparts to see. it's not something you really want to see on first sight. >> where are these found? >> african monitor lizard. >> turn him around so we can see the tongue. >> he's deciding what he wants to do. these guys are cool.

one group gets its way an air force general could be sent to a military prison for talking about his christian faith. a civil liberties group demanding a general be court martialed for these comments. >> this has been one of the most powerful, meaningful church services i've been in my entire life. it's the longest one for sure. i covet your prayers for our military members. and for those we worked for, you've already prayed for. >> peter johnson, jr., joining me now. >> god save these united states. if that's what we're up against. the military religious freedom foundation sending a letter saying, that major general oleson of the air force should be court martialed and imprisoned for quote, unforgivable crimes and transgressions that should be litigated by trial by a court martial and any and all others who assisted him with his ndpts

speech fundamental christianity be punished to the full extent of military law. national day of prayer task force. that's where he was. >> hard to wrap my brain around. the very freedoms they're wishing to punish him, this group for practicing the very freedoms for which they fight to protect for all americans, right? >> i watch the major general 23 minutes speech. and he talked about prayer for 22 minutes. he talked about how great america is for another minute. he's a christian. and he talked about how prayers kept his life together. how it's helped him in his air force career. how it's helped his entire family. how he prays on the phone with his wife when they can't be there. when they're together they pray every night before they go to bed. they don't go to bed mad at each other for any reason. he talked about prayer and god and being a christian.

and so in this country, today if you talk about prayer, or god, or being a christian, or being a jew, or being a muslim, and you wear the uniform, then, obviously your rightsing have been stripped and you should be court martialed according to this group. is this 1984? some topsy turvy world we're living in. it's not what we stand for as americans. it's bizarre. >> he said in the beginning, he alluded to the longest church service. are you not protected by law to talk about god? >> he is protected. he was engaging in prayer and he was talking about the importance of prayer. what's really off the rail is this organization says that he is providing propaganda for isis because it demonstrates that he's a religious crusader america. shame on you. >> peter johnson, jr. >> have a good week. coming up.

ramadi which is where the iraqi forces had their 8th brigade has been taken over by isis. if that's true, you're looking at another situation where the iraqi forces have melted away, leaving american equipment. american hum vees, american weapons to be put in the hands of isis again like we saw in mosul. there have been 165 air strikes, yet they're not able to hold on to this city. this suggests there are questions about their ability to defend on the ground. >> it doesn't like like the pentagon says they're ready to lost. sent com say it hasn't lost but it's contested. it's a political thing. we were able to with our special forces we were able to kill one of the bad isis guys over the

weekend. the way we did that was we had people on the ground. it's not a political question. is that the way to do it, do we need people on the grounding? >> you talk to the people there, they feel ham strung about their ability to go out and fight isis. they feel like the iraqis, you know, they're training as fast as they k.can. the iraqis are not u.s. soldiers, nowhere near. that was a big success over the weekend taking out that isis leader in syria. you're seeing a dramatic situation in iraq on the ground. now the iraqis will send in, apparently the shiite militia again. that creates a different problem. because ramadi is in anbar province. it's a sunni area. the sectarian tension is a tinder box. >> in tikrit after they took it, they started massacring people. what good is that, to have them go in?

it's a situation -- >> it's all bad. >> it needs a lead and a mission. can anybody tell us who is leading the 60 member coalition? >> well, i mean, the u.s. apparently is. but it's definitely not on a position on the ground. and you have, brian, the situation where the iranian defense minister is in baghdad this weekend. iran has a big role on the ground inside iraq. that creates a whole different set of problems for the u.s. >> it sure does. for the pentagon, it's a fluid and contested battlefield. it's worse than that. let's switch gears and look at 2016. the field of the gop side continues to expand. this morning senator lindsey graham is picturexpected to say jump in. what's his chances? >> lindsey graham bring as big defense, national security portfolio to the race.

americans. i would imagine if a republican would have been done this they would have been hooted out of the race already. and yet, she has apologized and we're just wondering if that's it? >> yeah, i mean, listen you look at the senate democrats and the leader of the senate democrats has spent a lot of time on the senate floor, senator harry reid talking about the nfl teams' name here in washington. the redskins. >> that's a great point. >> her party is very active on this sense of native americans being offended by even the nfl team's -- redskins name. and i think that potentially this is a problem for her. but we'll see how much coverage it gets out there in california. >> what all competition does she have for the nomination? she's going for barbara boxer's seat. is she considered a front runner? >> she is. she's considered one of them. there are a couple other names that are said to be considering

it, throwing their hat in the ring. this is probably a ding on her out there in that race. >> a keen insight that you gave us, that comparison to the redskins, her statement there and her party taking a strong stand against the very name by which she was insulting in that moment caught on camera. thanks. >> we're in a politically correct world. a cell phone camera could be a problem. >> he talks about politics each and every week day night. >> we see you tomorrow, cook ing with friends. >> that's right. and your book comes out on paper back. >> the whole family. >> the whole family. you have already settled as a family on what you're going to be cooking? >> we have. it's been an interesting discussion. >> i hope your wife is doing the cooking and you're just there in an apron nod. >> the boys will be involved.

many americans were relieved to hear that convicted bomber dzhokhar tsarnaev has been sentenced to death. but as it turns out his death could be delayed for decades bogged down by appeals. we have a criminal law poe professor. he wrote the book the death of punishment. he joins us now. that relief was felt in boston

we've got friends and family there ourselves. i think most americans looked at this as justice is done. now we hear about the appeals process. what's the justice in that? >> an appeal is guaranteed. it should be. apparently the defense will appeal largely on three grounds. one was the refusal to remove the trial out of boston. the judge kept it there. the majority of boston residents were against the death penalty. a second ground for the appeal is going to be on the jury instruction that the judge gave. the judge did instruct the skrury they had to be unanimous for death. the defense wanted the judge to go further. suppose there's a hold out or two. they wanted the instruction from the judge to say that the jury is not unanimous for death then

it would be life. he refused to give that instruction. their claim on the appeal is most likely to be that a juror who was holding out for life, would have caved in because he would fear or she would fear that there would be a whole new trial with a whole other jury. >> look at the stats. people say it's good he'll get the death penalty but he won't get t. no one has been executed since 2003. mcveigh gave up on his appeals. we won't get to kill him? >> i think it might. this is a crime that involves the united states where we won't forget and forgive. >> lawyers astute like you will find a way to keep the happeal process going? >> because this is a federal case you skip a whole round of state appeals. it still takes too long and it

will probably take seven to ten years. he may be executed within the next ten years. >> we have to keep giving him a lawyer to do the appeals. >> yes. >> we thank you for your insight. a criminal law professor at new york law. and your book, the death of punishment, great insight. coming up, al sharpton's daughter suing new york city. she looks okay there. >> some of the best ankle therapy i can imagine. we're kicking ouf our proud american series about a veteran with an amazing idea. he plans to help veterans recovering from war ♪ we will we will rock you ♪ [m jackie's heart attack didn't come with a warning.

because we sent in our guys and they killed one of the bad guys. it was hand to hand. belly button to belly button i read one report with hyperboly. it makes it look like if we want to win this thing in iraq, we're going to have to have people with boots on the ground. >> well, i'm not sure of that. there's no question that if we put u.s. ground forces in we could put isis out of business in three weeks. there's no question. but then you have infidells defeating radical islam. we must have muslims defeat radical islam. that's why i say no ground forces. let's use air power. we did not use air power to stop them from taking ramadi. why i do not know. >> is our policy clear what we're supposed to be doing over there? >> i don't think it's clear at all. i agree with tom, we don't need massive ground troops on the ground there because ultimately this has to be a fight that they

win themselves. in the long term, that they can sustain. i do think the kind of thing we saw in syria which was bold and odd audacious is a model for whe should be looking at in terms of boots on the ground. that's a misleading term. we have special forces in there right now training with these people. we have boots on the ground. we're talking about large troop formations. i agree with tom, i don't think we need that. >> when you look at what happened in syria, you know, and that did work. you got the problem in the ramadi area and in anbar province where the guys who are supposed to be helping us, see isis coming over the hill they park the humvy and run. >> the challenge is with the iraqi security forces being taken out of ramadi left behind a cachet of weapons. let's put a broader context here. to defeat isis. it's not just a military issue.

you think of isis in terms of their military capability and their financial capabilities the ability to govern. we need a broader approach. iraq is the center of gravity of that fight. >> sure. it was a couple of months ago, general martin dempsey, the chairman of the joint chiefs said this about ramadi. remember this? >> it's not symbolic in any way. it's not been declared, you know, part of the caliphate on one hand or central to the future of iraq. but we want to get it back. we'd much rart thther that ramat fall. >> he got into hot water over that. the u.s. lost 1,335 soldiers in anbar province which ramadi is the big town. >> i'm a big fan of his, and he

apologized like he should have. it's strategically important. the road goes into baghdad. it's a key city. the history of why we fought to get it. >> i'm going to give you the last 30 seconds. if you are making a plan for where to go from here given what has happened over the last 72 hours, where do you start? >> exploit the intelligence from the raid into syria and make more raids exactly the same on the kurds and arm them directly. the kurds are our only reliable allies and use them as ground forces. >> thank you very much. >> thank you. >> all right. pleasure thanks for your service. coming up on this monday, al sharpton's daughter suing new york city for $5 million because she sprained her ankle walking across the street. that's not stopping her from hiking on a mountain.
