erik prince viewed himself as being thrown under the bus by leon panetta when he became cia director.ome of what leon panetta did was disingenuous -- he runs to congress early in his tenure at the agency and greets the intelligence committee on what he said was basically an inactive assassination program that blackwater was at the center of, and tells members of the intelligence committee that he had shut it down. on thed to people intelligence committee, and they said it seemed like panetta was trying to deal with the fact that there was torture and activity by the agency. they would say it was judicial activity because they have these memos allowing the torture, but basically, we are panetta tried to put all the garbage on erik prince a and blackwateter and fh it down the toilet. then the square massacre at the into 2007. i would say the falluja incident brought blackwater to fame and protestants, and then -- prominence, and then it was brought to infamy when they killed civilians in a baghdad traffic stop. some of the blackwater guys that did that ultimately were prosecuted and wer

only two people stood up and said, we have to do this, it is the right thing, one was leon panetta andhe other was, the loudest, strongest voice that we had to do the brady bill was hillary rodham clinton. [applause] >> hillary! hillary! hillary! hillary! senator schumer: because of senator clinton, tens of thousands of people are walking the streets alive today because of the brady law prevented them from getting guns. she listened, she spoke up, and she changed the lives of millions in her career. we know that hillary delivers. we also know she is not finished delivering yet. [applause] she knows that unions have been the most effective vehicle in american history for raising people into the middle class. she knows the hard right wing wants to get rid of unions. she is fighting to help. she is fighting for an increase in the minimum wage. she is taking on those who are attacking those against family leave. you better believe that if mr. cruz or trump got to pick the next court justice they would get rid of unions. they would undo the voting rights act and what allow poisonous money t

this is the reason people like secretary gates, secretary leon panetta, both former cia and defense camehat the fbi was trying to do. they know you have to do this behind closed doors. liz: the fbi, necessity is mother of invention. they figured it out. we'll see, still to be played out. congressman darrell issa, thank you so much. we're coming right back. >> thank you. ♪ in new york state, we believe tomorrow starts today. all across the state, the economy is growing, with creative new business incentives, the lowest taxes in decades, and new infrastructure for a new generation attracting the talent and companies of tomorrow. like in rochester, with world-class botox. and in buffalo, where medicine meets the future. let us help grow your company's tomorrow - today - at business.ny.gov a grwas seeing theing the different discounts.ice it had like a manufacturer discount, it had a usaa member discount. all of them were already built in to the low price. i know that i got a better deal than i would have on my own. usaa car buying service, powered by truecar. liz: with the dow jones industr

i just got a conference call from a number of her backers, including cia director leon panetta who called rhetoric of the republican party reckless and dangerous and went so far as to say it is damaging the u.s. image abroad. that is the road it is taking. she has not locked up the democratic party just yet, and we'll see how large those numbers are if bernie sanders does in fact pull out victories in all tlehl-fee-la-lell three . >>> on the republican side of the race, donald trump is off the trail today but his campaign is in overdrive. nbc's melbourne have a two-face strategy and for donald trump it comes down to making deals. katie, what's the campaign's line of thinking on preventing a contested convention? >> the campaign is very publicly confident in how they're going to get not only to 1237 votes, that magic number, to make sure it doesn't go to a contested convention. their internal projections think they're going to get 1400, 1450 delegates. but even though they're very publicly confident, even though they're getting record turnout across the country, these millions of voters co

today, the campaign holds a conference call with the press, featuring leon panetta. folks, trump has normalized this very weird phenomenon. hijacking a narrative with outrageous news stories, with a flashy sort of shiny metal object. transforming what normally would be self-inflicted wounds for a candidate into just another day at the office for donald trump. sometimes he seems the to fall into these moments. like this bizarre show in iowa, where trump re-gained the spotlight from a surging carson campaign by mocking carson's story about finding god as a child, after a misguided attempt to stab a friend. other times, it seems like a planned operation. remember that cnn debate where rubio and cruz threw the kitchen sink at trump over his failed businesses, trump university, his inheritance, lawsuits over hiring undocumented workers, the works, works. in a matter of hours, everyone was talking about this, instead. >> texas, i'm here today to proudly say, i endorse donald trump for president of the united states! america needs someone who's going to make sure that hilla

i worry that the impact from leon panetta started this deal. secretary carter, your in favorite of that. are there risks that a new civilian team may not have the same emphasis? general dunford, can you comment on the military's side of that issue as well? secretary carter: i am absolutely fully in support of it and i thank you very much for your persistence and your leadership in asking us to do this and i want to thank michael mccord and his whole team for their role in this. you ask about the future. my guess, this will continue because the logic is quite clear. the necessity is quite clear so i think that will be clear to people who come after myself and the chairman. i'm pretty confident that we'll certainly should. of course you'll have a role in helping them remind this. but there is a whole team behyped this in all of our components and i think they're committed to this work. they'll remain committed to this work. general dunford: congressman, i can speak from my current perspective and a former service chief. i really do believe it's n

the other day, i was with leon panetta and we were at an event and somebody asked, when's the biggest threat? what's the biggest threat facing us today. and you have to stop and pause and look at the world and certainly changed. the security structure of the world, the threat matrix has significantly changed. just in the last few years. so i thought about it for a second and i said, one issue, one thing scares me more on all of the land, air, sea, cyber, space threats that we now face in ways we couldn't even contemplate 15 or 20 years ago and that's miscalculation. what if we get it wrong on north korea in what if we get it wrong on some maritime kind of conflict, small conflict in the south china sea? what if we get it wrong on the iranian new apparently missile testing program they're very proud to show the rest of the world? what if we get it wrong? what if one of our allies gets it wrong? they make a mistake. you know, the japanese are very eager to push back on the chinese in the south china sea and when we were having meetings with the japanese there they were very aggressive a

i worry the impact from leon panetta started this deal. hagel kept it up. secretary carter, you are full-throated in favor of it. are there risks a new civilian team may not have the same emphasis? general dunford, when you comment on the military's side of that issue as well? >> i am absolutely fully in support of it, and i thank you very much for your persistence and your leadership inducing us to do this. you asked about the future. my guess is that this will continue. because the logic is quite clear, the necessity is quite clear. so i think that will be clear to people who come after myself and the chairman. i'm pretty confident that will -- certainly should -- and of course, you'll have a role of helping them remind them of this. but there is a whole team behind this in all of our components. i think they're committed to this work. they'll remain committed to this work. >> congressman, i can speak from both my current perspective and as a former service chief. i really do believe that it's now part of our culture. we've been at this now four or five y

maria: yeah, last week on the program leon panetta weighed in on the issue and said, look, in the pastprivate practice all the time, i would work with telecom companies to get the information i needed. do you agree with that? and what's changed? was it the edward snowden revelation that now companies are just looking at this very different than they had in the past? >> and that has bound to have had an effect on the overall milieu in which we're operating this. it probably accelerated what we're seeing now, maria, but i don't think it created it. it created some context and brought the question closer to us in time, but as i said before, we're on an arc where you and i expect to be able to use unbreakable encryption all the time, and the rest of the world does, too. maria: yeah, which is why i also shade with apple the way you do because i feel that it is people's privacy and you don't want to rip up the constitution, but we're talking about saving lives and actual terrorism. how would we get that kind of information? i mean, i know-- i guess maybe i'm naive with this and i asked you t
