according to prosecutors, picker and howard both played a role in the campaign finance violations to which cohen pleaded guilty this week. crimes that he, of course, says that the president of the united states directed him to carry out. it was picker and howard who paid off karen mcdougal to cover up her allegation of affair with then candidate trump and tipped off cohen when stormy daniels was preparing to going public with her allegation just before the election. allegedly, ami first made an arrangement with the president long before that. according to the charging documents all the way back in august 2015, at the being of the trump campaign in coordination with cohen and one or more members of the campaign, picker identified as chairman one, offered to help deal with negative stories about individual relationships with women by among other things assisting the campaign in identifying such stories so they could be purchased and publication avoided. individual 1 is, of course, donald j. trump. it was almost a full year before the deal we know about with karen mcdougal. and on the s

third, both ambassador pickering and admiral mullen high lighted the reason this is complicated because unsatisfactory leadership is not grounds for finding a breach of duty. the arb did not find these four individuals breached their duty. i have submitted legislation to this committee and congress to fix this problem. >> how do you feel the secretary did in the first round of testimony? do you feel she was transparent enough and what remains unanswered for you coming up this afternoon at 2:00? >> well, i think she did a fantastic job. i thoutd she was just terrific. it's easy, hindsight is always 20/20 and we can point fingers and go back. i think senator paul was off base because we can neither use this for political purposes or use this to learn so that a tragedy like this never happens in the future. that's what i'm concerned of. there were things that went wrong and there were things we should have done that we didn't do. but i want to make sure there are no future benghazi s and that's why i think these hearings are important, to find out what happened, to talk about what we can d

pickering both are. but this is also what i don't doubt. i don't doubt that that phone call was made to miss mills saying don't send charlene lamb before congress, she's not going to make a good witness. and i don't doubt that there's not a transcript from any of the a.r.b. interviews, and you may say why does that matter? if you're going to write a report and you want to write a report with specificity and particularity, you have to cite the transcript. and i can't tell you a single question that was asked of a single a.r.b. witness because there is no transcript. so my point is not that the a.r.b. did a bad job or a good job. my point is from the standpoint of a serious investigation it was an inadequate job. and i want to hopefully prove that to you. there used to be a stack up there when mr. smith was with us about all the previous investigations that congress and the a.r.b. had done. did any of those previous congressional investigations or the a.r.b. have access to your e-mails? >> mr. chairman, first of all, the witness you were refe

senator cornyn, why do you think tom pickering, ambassador pickering, doesn't have this right? >> well, i think it's not a matter of personalities. i've known chuck haling. he is an honorable man. he has had a record of distinguished service, but he is profoundly wrong on a number of the most important national security issues that face our country today, like denying iran nuclear weapons, like direct face-to-face negotiations with state department designated terrorist organizations like hamas, and calling into question our commitment to our principle ally in the middle east, israel. those are three things that strike me as senator hagel being out of the mainstream, and i believe just wrong when it comes to protecting the national security of the united states. >> colin powell has just endorsed him within the last half hour, saying that he is bold, he is independent, he is the right person for the pentagon. colin powell no slouch when it comes to being tough on iran. >> well, as you know, washington d.c. is a pretty tight little click, and there's a lot of people who have had l
