you don't have an adversarial procedure. i assume when there's a big program or interpreting the scope, you would hope there would be one appointed. but suppose you have a specific warrant investigation that in effect involves complex issues where do you draw the line in terms of when you either should mandate or strongly nudge towards an adversarial proceeding and where it really is closer to the traditional under the fourth amendment ex parte warrant proceeding? >> so i'll ask you to answer that question, but also to sort of maybe talk a little bit and i think you alluded to this issue which is, you know, in a warrant proceeding, you do in many cases have a criminal proceeding to challenge subsequently and what are the differences between that sort of normal criminal model and what we see in the fisa context, and maybe would you like to start us off? >> well, i'm not sure quite where to intersect with all those -- with that thinking. if we're talking about special masters, i mean, i don't see any utility of a special maste

and that is what an adversary is for. that is why we should have an adversary. the fisa court is not an administrative agency, it is not the p club. and judges are not administrative agencies, they listen to what you say and what you say and decide. and for judges to review the bells and whistles and say that's okay, that's okay that's okay, and without np adversary there, it is not -- i'm sorry i'm johnny one note here it is not what judges do, what judges should do. >> but that is of course what the fisa court has been doing. when you look at section 215 and section 072 programs, the fisa court is saying broadly speaking this is okay and you have procedures over here and those look okay. some of what you are suggesting, david, is this ongoing oversight function, which you judge robertson to objected to at the very beginning. so you want to have somebody looking over the intelligence agency's shoulder in a sense to make sure they are complying with the rules the court has set out and you are saying that is just not a judicial function so how do we square that c

our adversaries are constantly evolving. so must our tools to combat them. we cannot detect and stop every single intrusion. that is not news. so often the most sophisticated actors penetrate the gate because they know they can count on a single user letting his guard down to an act of spearfishing. but my message today is we have increased and will continue to increase the instances in which attempted intrusions are either stopped at the gate or rooted out from inside the system before they cause damage. we are taking action. we are aggressively strengthening our defenses. we are accelerating the deployment of the tools we have and working to bring new ones online. thank you very much. [applause] mr. o'keefe: thank you, sir. appreciate that. sec. johnson: thank you, mr. secretary. mr. o'keefe: thank you, mr. secretary. sec. johnson: secretary of the navy is a lot cooler job. [laughter] mr. o'keefe: yeah, but you had the coast guard. that is one of the tops in my book, the coast guard. sec. johnson: i did not have aircraft carriers. sean, can i take a libert

the criminal justice system is an adverse real system and it should be adversarial and will remain adversarial. when it comes to mental health disabilities or other disabilities that are ending up in the criminal justice system, we need a different approach because adversarial does not work. it is not a solution based process. it is win, lose, black, white. it's not what we are talking about. our mental health and criminal justice systems are in crisis because of decades of bad public policy in both systems and a lack of coordination between the systems to identify people who shouldn't be there in the first place. i can talk for an hour just on that. but, we in the criminal justice system have been left with the unfortunate responsibility, one that we were never really trained for of trying to figure out how to get people out of the system that shouldn't have been there in the first place. behavioral health court collaboration began a decade or more laid down the foundation of future collaborations that are happening in san francisco. the award ceremony was incredibly special. i think that was

that makes it very challenging adversary. and over the coming years it will in my judgment remain a very challenging adversary. the russians are also developing innovative new capabilities. there is a tendency i think in the west to characterize russia as a rather bureaucratic, rather clumsy opponent, but everything we see tells us otherwise. they have been extraordinarily agile and exploiting new technologies like cyber. in blending those offensive capabilities and technologies into conventional capabilities and creating what we call a full spectrum effect capability. using deniable proxies to fight their wars for them empowered by deniable cyber operation, for example. and we are having, we are being challenged to rethink the way we do defense. and we have to think about how we respond to an adversary in which all decision-making powers concentrated in the hands of one man. i've heard it said that rush is a more centralized state today than it was under limited brezhnev were it was a the politburo that has to be consulted i

and the power we have today is more than any adversary or combination of adversaries. the fact that we have it is the greatest deterrent to nuclear war. helping to protect us against nuclear attacks, our radar installations, networks of sensitive nerve ends, part of a ballistic missile warning system called the news. a nerve center of our disk -- alert system is the underground headquarters of the air command. no surprise attack could catch us unprepared. an underground silo, enough of our power would survive to ensure the destruction of any aggressor nation. across the world, the winds of war are fanned by aggression against south vietnam. pressure and cruelty by the viet cong, not only villages and towns destroyed, but transportation as well. the south vietnamese military forces have been fighting the viet cong or years. wherever they could find them. sometimes, it was across the dry, hot planes under a merciful -- under a merciless sun. sometimes, it was during the steamy monsoon season. and sometimes, it was from the very trains the viet cong tried to destroy. what

elsewhere, old adversaries are seizing opportunities to challenge our interest. putin seized territory, and china building in free territory. our allies fill the absence of american leadership. our adversaries are taking advantage. american weakness anywhere hurts us everywhere. our enemies are emboldened and our friends are going it alone. both reactions are detrimental to our national security interest. it is time for america to come back. and come back we will. and the way you come back is to make sure the next president must be an informed and decisive commander-in-chief. ready immediately to deal with the threats i have just described. we have learned over the past six years that speeches alone won't make us safe. if that were true, we would be really safe. superior power and resolve is the only way to be safe. i am running for president of the united states because i am ready to be commander-in-chief on day one. [applause] i am ready on day one to defend our nation. with sound strategy, a strong military, stable alliances and a steady determination. i have

adversaries. another significant challenge you will face is a shortfall in aviation readiness. it has degraded readiness in marine aviation. today nondeployed squadrons are 20% short of the number of aircraft to train or respond in a crisis. the marine corp aviation bench is too shallow to be ready for future challenges. we'll be interested to hear your views on putting the marine corp on track to restore aviation readiness. finally, general miller, if confirmed, you will be responsible for recapitalizing and remodernizing for future challenges. in the air, the marine corp is rapidly approaching a milestone with the ioc of the f-35 joint strike fighter. concerns remain about the war fighting capability of these aircraft reaching ioc. we'll be looking to you general miller, to be sure our marines have safe and reliable aircraft that allow them to effectively carry out their missions. given the importance of replacing our ageing inging fleet of amphibious vehicles, the marine corp must deliver this

had this been an actual adversary attack we see adversaries regularly probing, complete inthat structure, the power grid manufacturing company, retail, the financial services sector. it's happening every single day. they have the ability and they have the intent to not only steal data but disrupt or destroy data. what companies need to do is hunt on their network looking for indicators that an adversary is trying to attack their network. in this particular case i have it on very good authority from some good sources that have a position to know that this was technical. but had it been an adversary this would have been a big, big problem. >> that certainly squares with all of our reporting. shawn, you have to imagine that you have adversaries, would be hacker, who were watching what happened yesterday very closely. what might they have learned? what information might they have gained from what happened yesterday? >> well, one thing i think that they get to see, it gets to be played out on national television is really how significantly we rely on the infrastructure. you know we turn on th

but these nonstate adversaries.obviously isis and the caliphate is one of those areas. areas. there are other places where you have bogle from and the extension of isis. it's relatively new thinking , but it is real it has interest, and there is political work being done. this is this is real. they can see how in afghanistan al qaeda had influence the beyond that the they had influence in pakistan my only answer not a routine part of governments consideration ambassador clicks good morning, morning, gentlemen. when you see the coalition forces and all day we talk about ices and others do you feel the sense of urgency a line? or do you still think that intellectually people say it's still there clicks i would say this is of urgency surely is greater today than it was last thursday because of these attacks on three continents who have a picture of a threat that has metastasized, a threat that has to be addressed in iraq and syria because this coalition is going to have to go into a different year in terms of its activ

every adversary or would-be adversary we have, whether it is china or russia or iran or someone else would say, may be u.s. is going to lead again. and make no mistake. we must have the strongest military on the face of the planet and everybody has to know it, which means we have to invest in our military. [applause] and finally, i would call a camp david summit, not to talk our arab allies into a bad deal with iran. i would call them and speak to our arab allies about what they need from us to fight isis. they know this is their fight. i do not know how many of you have been watching the news but egypt is fighting isis. our allies in the region have asked us are specific things that we have not provided them. king abdallah of jordan has asked us for bombs and material. we have not provided that. the egyptians have asked us to share intelligence. the saudi's and the kurds have asked us, there are a series of things that these allies in the region who know this is their fight want from us, we are not providing them, and so we would have a camp david summit and decide together how best

our adversaries are constantly evolving. so most articles to combat them. we cannot detect and stop every single intrusion. that is not news. so often the most sophisticated actors penetrate the gate because they know they can count on a single user letting his guard down in an active spearfishing. but my message today as we have increased and will continue to increase the instances in which attempted intrusions are either stopped at the gate or rooted out from inside the system before they cause damage. we are taking action. we are aggressively strengthening our defenses. we are accelerating the deployment of the tools we have an working to bring new ones online. thank you very much.

they are still we're still adversaries. we're not allies and friends any means. this agreement does only one thing. you heard the ayatollah just in the last days proclaiming the continued with the united states. is very different country than iran with one. that middle east without nuclear weapon is a safer, middle east. we believe that israel, we believe the region will ultimately be much safer because of this deep. if we don't do this deal, if coming guess says no to this deal there will be no restraints on iran, there will be no sanctions left. our friends will desert us. we will be viewed as having killed the opportunity to stop them from having weapons, they will begin to enrich again greater likelihood you'll have a war. >> dickerson: last question. if you don't get majority in congress to support this deal doesn't that undermine the deal? >> no. not in the least. they don't care over there whether it's majority or minority or whatever it is as long as deal is implemented. that's what we care about. this we love see congress listen carefully and we're going

in that appear to be adversaries in the past. -- that appeared to be adversaries in the past. i would like to think individuals from both vietnam and the united states. support and hard work has made significant conjugations to promoting a chip and cooperation between our two countries. my special thanks go to my american friends and those who always stand by our side of support, because national development and defense in our country. the compliment and lessons of the last 20 years give us all reason for great optimism and expectation of the future of vietnam u.s. relations. regarding the extent on relations policy, ladies and gentlemen we must be exposed to new ways of thinking and new ways of action. the neckties asian are opening up new opportunities for prosperity and cooperation among nations. economic and financial crisis, along with social and humanitarian creates new demands for sustainable growth models. an economic relationship between relations and international economic order. traditional and nontraditional security challenges including terrorism, cyber security,

admiral, is china is an adversary adversary? >> i think china is a complex nation. they are clearly growing in every dimension. things they do have an adversarial nature to them. they have a vastly growing nation. their activity in the south china sea -- >> doesn't sound like rosy relationship right now with china between the united states and our allies. but various published reports have speculated our cooperation agreement with china that the obama administration has submitted to congress may facility the transfer of sensitive equipment and technology to the people's liberation army navy. do you believe that the united states navy has a military advantage over the pla navy, especially regarding nuclear capabilities? >> the details of this are very technical and difficult to discuss in an open forum. i would look forward to discussing those in a classified setting with you. i believe that in the aggregate we would be better with a renewed successor agreement than without it. >> even if you suspected or knew that the pla navy was going to divert that civilian nucle

our adversaries are increasing to commercial technologies. they are moving away from exquisite hardware solutions and .riving we are doing similar kinds of things. if you look at radio systems or electronic warfare systems, we are getting digital. we are also investing in modular architectures. that is only going to get us so far. you're getting to the point where we are fueling capabilities that are going to run up against environments that are ill characterized at the time of design. the thought is the architect that draws from a cognitive kind of analogy here, they have the ability to send environment. if you were to take a radio 20 years ago and crack the list, you find and there is circuits, he were to look at the state-of-the-art radios today most of the functionality they provide lives in the software. we have the ability to upgrade them overtime very quickly. when we put one of those out in the field and get exposed to some interference we didn't anticipate, the desire of cognitive learning is to figure out mitigation strategies in re

he's made a commitment to degrade and ultimately destroy this adversary. what he needs above all, more than anything else, more than any particular decision to send advisers forward or lays this. he needs some one person who will take responsibility for this campaign and every day, every morning when he asks the question, how are we doing in our battle against isis will say, mr. president, in the last 24 hours we had this and this and this. here are my bugiggest problems i'm asking you to focus on today. jan allen thought he'd been given that job when he was made special representative for the president to build the coalition to fight isis. that job despite strenuous arguments to obama, was not put at the white house as many people thought it should be. it was put at the state department. and from that moment, that was, what roughly september, october of last year, you've had a series of inneragency fights, confusions, false starts where you have the centcom commander lloyd austin asking the president, mr. president, am i running this war? and the answer i

it led us to weaker leadership around the world where our friends can no longer trust us and our adversariesndecisiveness have sent a wave of anxiety through our country but i'm here to tell you that anxiety can be swept away by strong leadership and decisiveness to lead america again. we just need to have the courage to choose. we have -- need the courage to stand up. we have two coarsening have. american knows that new. it must start with this. we must tell each other the truth about the problems we have and the difficulty of the solution. if we tell each other the truth we recognize that will lead to growth and opportunity for every american in this country. what are those troops? those truths, we have to acknowledge our government is not working anymore for us. we have to say it out loud and acknowledge it is the fault of our bickering leaders who no longer listen to us and no longer know that they are supposed to be serving us. we need to acknowledge that all of that anxiety and those failures are not the end, they are the beginning. the beginning of what we can do together. what we nee

those are public adversarially hearings where each side is are represented by an attorney and a judge presides over them. in almost all instances preliminary hearings are used by prosecutors. so the issue becomes why would you go to a grand jury? i heard one gument argument well a witness might be reluctant. i've heard that argument before. if the glur grand jury indicts and the witness comes forward, i don't think that argument holds up. i really can't fathom why prosecutors are just you know unwilling to look at a system that has become so antiquated and say we really don't need it transparency accountability are important. >> i have a little push back. a significant number of criminal cases actually don't go to trial. we reach plea agreements in the overwhelming majority of these case he and if you can present the accused with a reasonable amount of evidence that will show that they will be convicted they will accept that plea deal and your witness or witnesses actually don't have to come forward. i think we're unnecessarily impearling the privacy of people in a -- imperilling the

the power we have today is more than that of any adversary or combination of adversaries. the fact we have it is the greatest determined for nuclear war -- deterrent for nuclear war. helping us are radio installations, part of an early warning system. the nerve center of our defense system is an underground headquarters of strategic air command. no surprise ballistic missile attack would catch us unprepared. in underground silos enough retaliatory power would ensure the destruction of any aggressor nation. this is the terrible power that stands ever ready. this is the awesome power, always under control, as it is here in scotland. a missile is being lowered into a nuclear submarine. the united states is able to launch ballistic missiles in a matter of seconds from beneath the sea. our nuclear weapons can be delivered by air against any enemy troop, any part of the earth. they weapons this air armada can deliver today are capable of even greater to struck the force found in this early pacific ocean test. [explosion] this is part of the military strength of the united states

we faced an adversary in the first decade of this that we didn't understand. in 2002-2003 we had a major airline plot in 2006. that's why you can't bring liquids on airplanes anymore. they were plotted by the organization that had been the architect of 9/11. people are saying we see an adversary we don't understand this recruiting by social media, these attacks that independent and therefore we think the risk is higher. >> you say we see an adversary that we don't understand that has carried out or attempted to carry out some of these smaller scale attacks but still significant like in garland texas, right? why is that more dangerous? >> a couple of reasons. when they first faced al qaeda they spent years -- now we have isis that we focus on because of isolated attacks here in america and europe as well. i'd say 95% plus of the energy isis spends is not on terror attacks. they just worry about territory. they don't sit there and try to figure out how to take down four airliners like we saw on 9/11. i hated phones on holidays like this. but at the same time i t

as the united states was focused on the wars in afghanistan and iraq america's potential adversaries were investing billions in so-called anti-access area denial capabilities that threaten the marine corps ability to fight from the sea. at the same time, budget constraints lext the marine corps short. on the current path, the marine corps will not have the correct mix until 2024. this is particularly concerning in the asia pacific where the marine corps plays an essential role in our rebalance policy. despite growing tensions in the region, our marines still lack sufficient sea lift and air lift capabilities to respond to a major contingency in the asia pacific. we must do better if the united states is to accomplish a rebalance that successfully reassures our allies and deters adversaries. general neller, another significant challenge you'll face is shortfuls in readiness. over a decade of sustained combat has degraded readiness in marine aviation. today nondeployed marine aviation squad rons are 20% short of the number of aircraft needed to train or respond in a crisis. as you will

>> adversarial act. we have to respond in an adversarial way. we're not going to succeed by simply being on the constant cyber defense. we have to go on cyber offensive, but also the chinese. >> the cia has taken a huge hit. they have to assume every one of those agents has been exposed. >> okay. all right. when we come back they're calling it the sander surge or the bernie boomlet. despite the media hype does the vermont senator pose a real threat to hillary clinton? heart health's important... ...so you may... take an omega-3 supplement... ...but it's the ingredients inside that really matter for heart health. new bayer pro ultra omega-3 has two times the concentration of epa and dha as the leading omega-3 supplement. new bayer pro ultra omega-3. ar and i feel great because i used the truecar app. truecar knows what other people paid for this car so i know if i'm getting a fair price. this is how car buyi this is truecar.

these adversaries are taking advantage of the rapid advances. they are employing advanced commercially available encryption. as i anderson the issue even when law-enforcement as the legal authority to act as communications, pursuant to a court order you may lack the technical ability to do so. this is what you have referred to as going dark. you describe it as one of the biggest challenges facing your agency. this challenge falls at the intersection of technology, law, freedom, and security. it results in the adoption of universal encryption. these applications are designed so that only the user has the key. in these cases when the fbi or any other agency requests access to a user's communication via a lawful war meant -- warrant, it does not matter who they are law-enforcement is blind. as a result, we are less safe. i, like all americans like privacy. i am also concerned, as are my fellow members, about the counterintelligence and other criminal threats to those very same things. i strongly believe we must identify a solution that first protec

>> well it's an adversarial act. we have to response in an adversarial way. we're not going to succeed by simply being on the constant cyber defensive. we have to go on the cyber offensive not just against countries like north korea, and last december's sony pictures but also the chinese. in >> what does that mean? >> well look the president in a couple of years ago met with xi jinping the leader of china and tried to come to a gentleman's agreement on the issue of hacking. xi jinping wasn't listening to him for one second in part because of a value -- >> please china -- >> -- derived from hacking some of our defense agencies and so on. the cia has taken a huge hit. the cia has to assume every one of its agents around the world has been exposed. >> all right. when we come back they're calling it the sanders surge or the bernie boomlet. but despite the media hype does the vermont senator pose a real threat to hillary clinton? you know the importance of heart health. you watch your diet, excercise... and may take an omega-3 supplement, such as fish oil. but whe

the challenge was how to get the virus into an adversary's command and control system. the first publicized foreign hacker threat to national security began emerging in 1989. in march 1989, three west german hackers were arrested after selling western military passwords and computer codes to a soviet kgb agent. about a year later, in 1990, and australian hacker was arrested for breaking into the leavenworth lavatory in california, a nuclear research facility, also shutting down a nasser computer network in norfolk, virginia. in 1991, a group of dutch teenagers who were later arrested, hacked into defense department computers and got access to sensitive information related to the persian gulf war operations. meanwhile, another group of dutch hackers contacted the iraqi embassy in paris and offered to disrupt the network handling just ask messages between the u.s. and saudi arabia for $1 million, but the iraqis turned them down. in 1994, the defense department examined the vulnerability of its networks to hackers. that year, hackers from the defense information systems ag

[applause] president obama: no one can match our army, the greatest land force on earth. nobody can match our navy, the largest and most advanced battle fleet in the world or our coast guard, nobody can match our air force, its reach and precision are unequal. nobody can match our marine corps, the world's only global expeditionary force and no one can match our forces, our remarkable quiet professionals. i will never hesitate to use force to protect our nation, including from the threat of terrorism. thanks to the skill of our military and counterintelligence professionals, we struck major blows against those who threaten us. osama bin laden is gone.

allies some of the most supportive from adversaries. tonight, some of president obama's most important allies in the middle east aren't buying his claims that the iran nuclear deal will make the world safer. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu was quick to publicly criticize the agreement saying the lifting of sanctions rewards a terrorist regime. >> the world is a much more dangerous place today than it was yesterday. this cash bonanza will fuel iran's terrorism worldwide, its aggression in the region and its efforts to destroy israel which are ongoing. >> reporter: saudi arabia is no friend of israel but it's also not a friend of iran. the saudis also are condemning the nuclear agreement, describing it to cnn as a monumental historical miscalculation by the obama administration. some of the most positive reaction is coming from russia and china, two of the united states' most powerful adversaries. russian president vladimir putin says now the world can breathe a sigh of relief. russia and china will win big financially from the

i mean, i think that this adversary this weekend is getting a freebie.hey're getting a lot of publicity on what this threat is. so i think americans really need to kind of stand strong, defend the values of our country, celebrate our independence, and show this adversary that we are not afraid. >> michael downing, we wish you a good weekend, we wish you a safe weekend, and thank you so much for being with us. >> thank you. good weekend to you as well. >> thanks. >> 20 minutes before the hour right now. it was such a bizarre moment when this father found out on live television that his missing son had been found where? in the family basement. >> your son has been found in your basement. sir? mr. bothuell, are you -- >> what? >> now this man is speaking out with some more words about what happened. we will hear from him next. >>> and, plus, as we learned, rich matt sent a letter to his daughter just days before his daring escape from prison. cnn goes inside the very trailer where that inmate hid from authorities. you can see what our correspondent gary tuc

a very challenging adversary. the russians are also developing innovative new capability ls. there is a tendency in the west to characterize russia as a rather bureaucratic, rather clumsy opponent. they have been agile in exploiting new technologies like cyber in blend. ing those offensive capabilities into conventional capabilities and creating what we call a full spectrum effect capability using cyber operations, for example, and we are being challenged to rethink the way we do defense and we have to think about how we respond to an adversary in which all decision making power is concentrated in the hands of one man. i have heard it said that russia is a more centralized state today than it was where at least under leonid brezhnev where there was at least a politburo that had to be coupled in some sense. that means it's a power that can make decisions very effectively respond very rapidly to a changing situation, that can exploit opportunities very rapidly and we as a nation and as part of a western alliance in

what is significant is nixon tapped him to evaluate our military capabilities against that of our adversaries with the soviet union. but his former aides and was a was planning graduate them with strategic of budgetary assessments has a great body of scholarly work them prior with the evaluation at the pentagon he worked for northrop grumman it is a graduate of u.s. air force academy said holders of master's and university of pittsburgh. the fletcher jones associate professor and he holds an mba and a ph.d. from princeton university. ladies and gentlemen, andrew krepinevich and barry watts.
