bipartisan basis and people are health care. now we h reform. co lower taxth bring that in rate and then infrastructure, and you can sit bipartisanship around here, >> can i go backdown elections. you said in some quarters that would be considered an act of what is the next sthoe drop? what do you fear coming out of this? >> it's hard for notice predict because i never would have predicted the chairman of the house intelligence committee g but i think that there is more information out there. there is more ties to russia. there is more engagement with
7:59 am
false information. there is a lot more associated with russian attempts to effect america, our election but also a lot of other russian activities going on. for example, right now they are attempting to affect the outcome in france. >> what about the demonstrations in russia right now? >> it's magnificent. it shows young people particularly in russia are not satisfied with this corrupt thug continuing to runir it's a grea. but i also think we're not paying much attention, charlie, to the fact that he's murdering people. having people thrown off balconies. having guys shot who was in ukraine. to use an old phrase, where is the outrage? >> what do you want the president to do and this administration to do more than to show outrage or express outrage? >> sanctions. more sanctions on russia.
8:00 am
obviously they tried to subvert the fundamental of democracy and that's a free and fair election. we need more sanctions against russia. we need to provide weapons to you crane. we need morelkans. we need to set up a counter to the very successful misinformation campaign and propaganda campaign that they are waging particularly in eastern europe. >> senator, can i ask you, officials reported yesterday that north korea has carried out another test of a rocket engine that u.s. officials believe could be part of a larger program. what needs done? how are you against is the north korean threat? >> i think it's the most urgent threat that we're facing right now because if you have this ruler whose behavior is obviously not rational with a missile,it that can reach the u states, that's not a risk we can take. we have to prepare for certain
8:01 am
eventualities. the key to this is china. china could shut down north korea tomorrow and we should engage some of our relationship with china based on them bringing north korea under control. >> but if that doesn't work, if the chinese will not help, in fact then they do have deliverable capability to deliver a nuclear missile to the west coast of the united states, would you recommend the president take military action to eliminate that possibility? >> charlie, i think before i would recommend that i would have to know exactly what's going on. but under that scenario that you just described i don't see how it's acceptable to have a situation like that where a person of not rational behavior, he doesn't think like us, to have that kind of capability and with his finger on the trigger, i'm not saying we should go to
8:02 am
war with them but we should be accelerating our ability to counter. >> all right, senator, we'll look forward to talking to you again, maybe after the reception tonight. we'll know a little bit more. we talk about partisanship but the republicans have some healing to do amongst themselves. you can have a good old get-together tonight. >> see you. >> invite him to arizona. >> thank you very much for joining us this morning. a growing number of patients are undergoing the knife when they are wide awake. our doctor shares some pros and cons for patients and doctors of what it

would you choose to stay awake during surgery. some doctors offer patients nerve blocks instead of general anesthesia. this may happen in orthopedic and cosmetic procedures. not every patient is suited to this option. our doctor -- dr. david i saw this on an episode of "grey's anatomy". the patient was strumming a guitar. oh, that's a tv show. why would anyone want to do this? >> reporter: in the case of
8:08 am
"grey's anatomy" when the tumor is in the brain you don't know where the speech section and the doctor does that to avoid cutting things that are important. but there's a new move around the country people saying i want to be in charge. tloint when the operation happens. at the same time they are also saying i'm afraid -- what if i don't wake up from anesthesia. it's cheaper. there are less side effects. this is a trend that's starting to happen is people being involved in their own surgeries. >> it is better for the doctors? >> it's difficult for the doctors. we're trained in medical school to have a two or three hour conversation with a patient during a procedure. you have to watch what you say. if you have trainees sometimes the patient don't want the trainees and it's those interactions difficult to have if the patient is awake. at the same time it's a movement that has to respect that patients want. >> it is painful. are they cutting on you when you're awake. >> it's a nerve block. you're blocking -- if you put a
8:09 am
regional block here you won't feel anything down. or in the hip they put a block in your hip area. a cesarean section is a great example they can do a spinal block. >> you also get a chance to see what doctors talk about during an operation. >> or what music they like. doctor's musical taste may not be your own. >> how does everything look down there, doctor. but there are some distipgt advantages. >> no question about it. it's cheaper. can you go home quicker. if you have an operation on your hand with a regional you can go home an hour two later versus waiting half a day waiting for the general anesthesia to drive you home. you can drive home yourself after this regional. no question the data showing it may be better to do it this way. >> who would be a good candidate for this? >> knee operations. extremity operations. we're getting more and more
