7:11 am
job. that's what this might highlight. >> did people say this might be like joseph welch moment. my question is whether over time the accumulation of these events as the undecided voters start to pay for attention whether it may take a toll on him. >> i think that's the thing to look for. the accumulation plus the republicans calling him out. paul ryan and mitch mcconnell are still 100% donald trump supporters in terms of their but they are -- they both made comments about this. you add the accumulation plus the sort of people from inside the republican party criticizing him and that might cause just what you're talking about. >> we have a bump for hillary clinton coming out of the dmocratic convention. will that even out? >> let's see where we are in a week. what's interesting as a smart political analyst mentioned on "face the nation" yesterday, look at the college -- the white college voter, white college

7:33 am
you can put it down. >> he's already there, isn't he? >> he's there in a certain way. but i'm not there yet. obama is there. frankly, that whole part of the world is a mess under obama. with all the strength you're talking about and all the power of nato and ail of this. in the meantime, he takes crimea. >> hillary clinton's campaign said in a statement, quote, this is scary stuff, and yet more proof why donald trump is unfit and totally commander and chief. general michael hayden, good morning. >> good morning. >> do you agree with hillary clinton? >> well, it certainly was a fact-free description of what's going on in the ukraine. >> do you agree with what she said? totally unfit and unqualified to be commander in chief -- >> that would add to a wbody of evidence that would dra one towards that conclusion. there is a chance to recover. right now, that statement there
7:34 am
divorced from traditional european policy. i mean, that was the violent change of a european border with the annexation of crimea which he says he might be fine with at some point in the future. beyond just what's happening in the ukraine, can you actually live with a europe in which you can change borders based upon popular sovereignty? how much more violent would the continent become? >> what do you make of overall picture here? vladimir putin saying nice things about donald trump. donald trump saying nice things about vladimir putin. what's the big takeaway here? >> we have developed elements of strategy within the trump campaign. one of those elements is a far more cooperative relationship with the russian federation than we have had since the invasion of georgia in 2008. it also appears to be a fairly cost-free engagement for the
7:35 am
forgiving previous russian sins and allowing certain forms of russian behavior in return for russian cooperation on other joint problems. now, look, i like the part about the russian cooperation, but i do think actions have consequences. the occupation of crimea, the continued occupation of portions of the ukraine, the threat to the baltics, the unacceptable behavior, the cyber attacks which we're prettyta the russians are carrying out. you can't have this accommodation while that kind of behavior continues. >> three questions about the russian cyber attack. number one, are we convinced they did it? is everybody in the intelligence community convinced they did it? did they do it because they want to manipulate the election? three, how do we retaliate. >> i think they did it. you saw jim clapper cutely say only a limited number who could
7:36 am
did do this. in the cyber domain, sometimes you can't get to that court of law beyond no reasonable doubt. i think the rab russians did it. the stealing of the data, that's generally accepted state espionage. stealing that stuff is what big nations, including our own do to other big nations. they did something else, though. they weaponized the information. a minimum play with our heads.l the wisdom, the cleverness, to use the data to affect the outcome of the campaign. putin. i think he's just playing with our heads. he thinks we do this to him all the time. he thinks we did the orange revolution. he thinks we did the rose revolution. he's trying to give us a taste of our own medicine.
7:37 am
so to speak, in the cyber domain. this becomes part of that broad package of russian behavior requiring a broader -- to my view, tougher american response. >> i'm sorry. >> okay. there are reports that there are going to be daily briefings for donald trump and hillary clinton, security briefings. what exactly does that mean and do you think this is a good idea for both candidates? >> it's a necessary idea. it's not quite what the constitution requires. it's not written down, but it is you get the nomination of one or both of those parties, you are titled to some classified information. >> it was suggested that donald trump get fake briefings. >> yeah, you can't -- >> harry reid. >> the cities president has to treat both candidates perfectly equally. they're not going to get daily briefings. they're too busy. i suspect we may have a few. and it's just a few seminar-like
7:38 am
steroids. this isn't going to be let me show you the covert actions. they're busy, all right? but even candidates less talkative than mr. trump are frightened about trying to sort out in their minds when they get the unexpected question from folks like yourself, did i learn that in the briefing or did i read that in the paper. and they want to keep those challenges to a minimum until election day. officials who have suggested and been reported that they are concerned about donald trump having these briefings. you have paul ryan suggesting that he's concerned about hillary clinton having these briefings. what's your level of concern about each of them having these briefings? >> saying those things is unprecedented. this should be normal. this is just routine run of the american electoral process. you have candidates that have
7:39 am
serious people question their suitability, but they're going to get it. >> do you think they're going to tell these candidates everything they tell the president of the united states? >> the briefings between now and the election will be very vanilla. that will be classified light. somebody after the first tuesday, first monday is getting the president's daily brief. you take ohio, you take florida, you take pennsylvania, that's all you need to get the secrets. >> comg more time. there was story that paul manafort had a relationship with a woman. but is there anything here we should look at? >> the circumstantial evidence really does suggest an interest plot line. but charlie, to my mind, that's all you have to date. that would be just one hypothesis. this could very well be the
7:40 am
likes to side l up to the stuff guy, the guy who makes decisions, and i can deal with the tough guy. now, that can be fed by the relationships that other members of his campaign team have had before. >> he said said maybe if russia can help defeat isis, why wouldn't that be a good idea to form a partnership with them. >> exactly right. that's the point. that's not just trump's campaign plan it's actually the current administration's plan at the moment. >> general, always good to have the rush to keep the rio olympics from being a complete washout. and if you're heading out the door we hope you don't do it right now. you can watch us live on the app. we know you don't want to miss actor david oyelowo. he'll be in studio 57 to discuss. we'll be right back. ning the ov! yeah, i'm cleaning the gutters! washing the dog! washing the cat!

7:43 am
that increases the risk of death from asthma problems and may increase the risk of hospitalization in children and adolescents. breo is not for people whose asthma is well controlled on a long-term asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. once your asthma is well controlled, your doctor will decide if you can stop breo and prescribe a different asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. do not take breo more than prescribed. see your doctor if your asthma does not improve or gets worse. ask your doctor if 24-hour breo could be a missing piece for you. see if you're eligible for emerge restored. fortified. replenished. emerge everyday with emergen-c packed with b vitamins, antioxidants, electrolytes plus more vitamin c than 10 oranges. why not feel this good everyday?

another setback. the main boat ramp collapsed during a wind storm. but security is still rio's biggest concern. in july, at least 12 people suspected of planning terrorist attacks were arrested, though officials maintain no credible threat to the games has been made. >> we have full confidence in the brazilian authorities with regard to security. and the ioc is taking consideration olympic-related security measures. >> reporter: it's been seven years since rio was awarded south america's first ever olympic games which are expected to cost more than $12 billion. but rio got the games before zika was a global health crisis and the country sunk into its deepest recession in decades. they say all of the problems will be forgotten once the games begin. >> we are more confident than

8:03 am
yesterday, khan said he had asked his wife if he wanted to speak. >> she said you know my condition. when i see my son's picture, i cannot hold myself together. for this candidate for presidency to not be aware of the respect of a gold star mother standing there and he had to take that shot at her, this is height of ignorance. >> during his convention speech, khan also said of jobs he created. >> an investigation into donald trump's hiring practices shows he recently filed visa applications to bring in foreign workers. he filed applications this month claiming he couldn't find enough americans to do that work and is seeking temporary visas to bring in 65 workers.

8:06 am
florida? >> they are local mosquitos because there are no evidence at all that these individuals did not travel identify the continental united states. there's no evidence they've had any kind of contact with other people who have zika. the obvious conclusion of this that this is local spread through mosquitos which was not at all unexpected given the number of travel-related cases that we know are in the united states, many of which are concentrated in or >> do you expect to find additional local cases? >> i think there will be no doubt that we're going to see additional cases. this is something that was expected. it was predicted. the critical issue now is to prevent these locally acquired cases from becoming sustained and disseminated. there's a lot of activity going on locally by the local health authorities of very aggressive mosquito abatement control in order to prevent this spread
8:07 am
county area. >> how do you do that? >> you can actually eliminate standing water which mosquitos very vigorously pro create there. they lay their eggs in water, get larvae and get adults. when i say standing water, even small little bottle caps. that's one way. the other way is by killing the larvae. spraying either with backpack type spraying or aerial spraying. they're putting a full court press on that right now. >> the white house asked for a big funding, $1.9 billion back in february. congress is now in recess. how big a problem is it that that money is not available to fight this disease? >> it fundamentally is a big problem to begin with. as we're getting now into august, the beginning of august, we have had -- i mean the cdc and nih and others, have had to

8:16 am
against you for such a sick cause. >> yeah. >> dan ackerman, good morning. instagram has had policies on this for a while, but this is a new thing. what's new about it? >> they're starting to rollout for high profile accounts, people get a lot of traffic and comments and likes on their post, the ability to put in keyword filters so you can have certain wos comments or turn af comments entirely. some of these high profile accounts feel like they need that. >> twitter has been doing something too, but not everybody can do the same thing. >> on instagram, they're starting with the more famous people, the people who have a lot of traffic. they'll eventually roll that out to other people. for twitter, it's a whole other problem. the platforms are intrinsically different. it's hard to think that the same
8:17 am
>> do you agree that everybody has to come up with something? >> at this point, everyone does need to have plan and be more proactive about it. but you also can't go too far. it's how people get news and information, have this robust back and forth conversation. how do you do that and not turn it into a safe bubble where you don't hear any news or opinions that you're not comfortable with. how do you make it robust -- >> without s people and keeping people from feeling free to participate. >> is instagram now the preferred medium for celebrities? >> yeah. a lot of brands, a lot of celebrities. less news right now, especially because they moved to a format that's in a weighted feed where twitter is still very realtime. >> including donald trump. >> that's right, apparently.

8:19 am
your articles, it's not perfect for that, yet. but it's become the safe place for people to go who get scared off of twitter. >> you posted about a lot of unread e-mails and people blasted you. why? >> i made a mistake of writing a story for the print magazine and posted about how i ballooned to 120,000 unread e-mails. it was a story of how overwhelmed with unread communication. people felt the need to tell me that. >> just declare e-mail bankruptcy and start over. >> now down to inbox zero. >> is that term of art? e-mail bankruptcy. i'm done, i'm never going to reply to you. we're going to start fresh. >> aren't you afraid of missing something important? >> anything that's important, they'll call. >> thank you, dan.
