forth are our suggestions. they haven't implemented a lot of them. they need to implement and enforce. we're happy to see they've taken responsibility and said that their oversight has been severely lacking for greek life. we're happy that they're taking responsibility for disciplinary actions. but they have the same people involved, and those people were ineffective so i'm concerned. >> one of the defense attorneys argued in a hearing, that nobody forced tim to drink and said expecting young men to be able to distinguish between extreme intoxication and a head injury, quote, places an impossible burden on them. what do you say to those who argue it was just a tragic accident? >> they said right away somebody texted that he fell head first. they knew he hit his head. he was unconscious and having seizures. they knew he was in a bad way. who hasn't been involved with high school sports and concussions. you know. u

'16, they could be forgiven for that. it's a city he's been to before and a state that has supporters that love him dearly. beyond the media bashing and the revisionist history of what he said in the wake of the charlottesville violence there was real news in there. most especially the threat of shutting down the federal government should congress not provide the money he wants to start expanding and building out the border wall along the border with mexico. that is expected to be a flashpoint when congress comes back to town just after labor day and has only just a few days to figure out how to keep the government open and set spending levels going forward. >> what are you hearing about how congress is responding to that so far? i think a lot of jaws dropped at that remark. >> there are democrats who want to see the money set aside for a border lo border wall. he spoke in a state last night where a majority of arizonans

when the president is criticizing republicans, swearing at them on the telephone and generally raising concerns about whether they have america's best interest in mind, it's going to be very hard for the white house to work. >> what are you learning for your own reporting? we heard the speaker of the house, paul ryan, indicate it's going to be much easier to get tax reform done. are they close on that at all? >> no. no, they're not. you know, we don't know that they have a real big plan ready to go. and even if they do, it's going to take several more months before they can get that ball rolling. >> ed o'keefe, always good to hear you wisdom. thanks for joining us. secretary of state rex tillerson says president trump's afghanistan strategy may lead to something other than total victory. he said yesterday that the goal is to get the taliban to the negotiating table. >> i think the president was clear, this entire effort is intended to put pressure on the taliban to have the taliban understand you will not win a battlefield victory. we may not win one, but neither will you.

laughing at this, like, this is the world war styled airplanes. >> reporter: he said that was until they found themselves on the receiving end of one in combat. >> after that, they said we should hide. >> reporter: now they hide when they hear you? >> yes. >> reporter: they're also capable of dropping laser guided 500 pound bombs, which makes them both cheap and deadly. an aircraft like this is not going to hold its own against an air force like the russians or china. >> sure, it's not designed to. >> reporter: is there a need to have advanced aircraft? >> no. this suits the afghan air force just fine. >> reporter: it makes it an unfair fight. >> we hope so, in our favor, right? so that's the desire. >> reporter: and it's a mission on fast forward. afghan pilots come right out of u.s. training and straight into

>> when i first started designing the series, i didn't actually think -- i wanted it to be published. i didn't believe it would be because it's hard. i knew that the writing of it would have to be reward enough. because it may be the only reward i would get. i created a village i would live in, populate would characters i would choose as friends. and then it came time to create the main character. and initially i thought, well, i'll make him, oh, a man at odds with himself, maybe some sort of an addict of some sort. an unhappy fellow. then i thought, why? i can go down to the local bar if i want that. i'm a god, why would i create that? i heard that agatha christie had
