we're talking about benghazi. the big hillary clinton hearing in congress, which has nothing to do with politics. this was about getting the truth and finding clear facts. >> i think-- >> just wait. >> i'm waiting on the accurate statement. >> i'm getting-- >> right now, the only one you've asked for is sidney blumenthal. >> you need to make sure the entire record is correct. >> and that's exactly what i want to do. >> then go ahead. >> i'm going to tell you-- ( laughter ) >> trevor: so clear. so concise. it all makes sense now. and throughout the day, hillary was right in the thick of it. ( laughter ) i've been there, hillary. that feeling when baycalls a benghazi committee for the eighth time. but right now, i'm getting ahead ofinize mize. i should step back and explain. for those who don't know what this is about, today hillary clinton testified in congress for nearly 10 hours about benghazi. that's like a whole season of television that the house select committee just dropped on us like they were netflix or so

we get a phone call from tripoli or benghazi or whatever.rify that there is a location there that needs to be hit, send a tornado at nato and then it's gone. >> really? >> yeah. >> how does that feel knowing you can call in a tomahawk missile over there? >> it's out of the movies. >> did anyone think it was possible that in their lifetime they were going to see the end of this son of a bitch? most people are telling me they never dreamed. >> i don't know if you call them dreams, hopes, wishes. it was just something in the sky, something i look at every night. >> right. >> but when i hit that point and got into misrata and stood on gadhafi's body, any dream will come true. >> what's the situation now? >> it's fluid. it can swing any direction. >> well, look, what happened in benghazi a few months ago, i mean. what does this mean to the country? >> i think there is a dark, mysterious hand that doesn't like this country to prosper. they see system and organization as a big enemy to them. these concerns are slowly getting diminished. it's a matt

and besides everyone know benghazi is a dead issue; right?on by failing to report the facts. and then something else going on here. the good ol' double standard. can you imagine if a republican secretary of state serving in a republican administration had deceived the country on the true cause of our ambassador's death? you think the establishment media would just not report it? that is out of the question. it will be front page news, a republican would be hounded from office. the truth is america is not well served. there's nothing wrong with partisan positions of the editorial pages, got that, but there's everything wrong when a large chunk of the establishment fails to report events that don't conform to their view of the world. media bias on full display yet again. >>> now consider this. today, nasa, nasa, reports the amount of ice in antarctica is growing, putting some doubt that some global warming theories are going the right way. that's nasa saying that. and it contradicts the establishment media's opinion. let's see how much reportin

>> i continuing -- think it is benghazi. she said little things like she had to keep her personal e-mails personal because she was president clinton. and the spokesman said he didn't actually send e-mails. and there were repeated examples like that go to ron's point overrided her trust. >> it is anything that happens, any kind of controversy and flip flop and fits that context of i can't trust her, it is going to magnify that issue in her. and always going to be a problem. >> is that a problem that republicans will pounce on? >> it is there and republicans can exploit it. they can't if they have a discredited candidate. >> the issue of trustworthiness. trump is leading in the polls for his party. and carl cameron showed us what donald trump is doing on marco rubio on the issue of credit card and finances. rubio was on martha's on fox news. >> i have a mortgage on my home. and it would be good for the country to have a president to know what it is like for a house to lose value because of fannie and freddie. and owe money in

the benghazi testimony had nothing to do with her e-mails. the fbi investigation is not about benghazi or anything that happened that tonight. her command of policy details and her ability to just filibuster her way out of any answer talking about her time in the situation room, lots of terms, names, dates, just blows her competitors away, and she runs out the clock as they try to create contrast and differences with her when she's on her way to the coronation. >> speaking of the e-mail issue, bernie sanders told a reporter that maybe there is more to the e-mail investigation. it should be looked into. but he was asked about that tonight and again, kind of let off the hook. >> i was sick and tired of hillary clinton's e-mail. i am still sick and tired of hillary clinton's e-mails. the problem is, the front page every day is dealing with that. after i said that, we're not hearing much about hillary clinton's e-mails. what i would like is for us to be talking why the middle class is disappearing, why we have more people in jail than any other c

what provoked benghazi. a brand new state department email shows she may have known the cause much sooner. fox news chief white house correspondent ed henry joins us. >> good to see you, greta. the reason why this is significant, remember, this goes back to what happened at the house select committee on benghazi hearing committee member jim jordan pressing hillary clinton what she said in the days after the terror attacks. remember, the clinton team feels they got the better of that exchange and that she is turning a page on all of this. lo and behold late friday we get these new emails from the state department. one of them three days after a the benghazi attacks were basically u.s. officials in the separate part of libya in tripoli said do not use the video as an excuse. it's not as explosive as an issue here on the ground in libya as it is in other countries in the middle east. remember though, hillary clinton you see that email right there, went ahead anyway and told the families of the victims and other

benghazi? >> right. and this is a marathon hearing. but if you look at the questions around benghazi, they seem to suggest that people are not as familiar or don't know exactly what happened. so the most searched question that we saw was what happened in benghazi? and keeping in mind that this is not the first hearing that we've had. we've been doing this for quite sometime. but, again, you're seeing questions, like, what is the issue? so people were aware of the hearing but not perhaps of aware of the nuances of what happened. deirdre: now, staying with harder topics, nobel prizes, they were awarded recently, was america curious for who won for what? >> this is one of the topics that perhaps you don't know the winners inspect after they have been announced. so in this particular instance we saw the questions around not only who are the winners but who are the nominees? people wanting to know who won for physiology or medicine, but we'll see down here there's some questions about the committee

she wants good press and this was about benghazi. cnn out there saying good things about your benghazi testimony it, it worked for her. i'm not saying it was the right thing but it worked. >> because now we know she is coordinating with the media. >> we're talking about it most people in the media are not going to talk about it, and chances are a the will those benghazi questions are going to go away. i'm not agreeing with the coordination. i'm just saying they had a goal, which was to get better publicity out of an awful terror attack with benghazi and the facts were not on their side. and if they can get people in the media to say positive things and send out nice little tweets about her testimony, mission accomplished for them. >> i guess. we will leave it right there, ed. thank you very much. >> good to see. >> you when we come right back, president obama's tragedy to defeat isis in shambles, does the cia have its own plan to actually get the job done? a provocative new documentary that reveals the secrets of the cia as told by t

. >>> also developing now, new fallout surrounding the benghazi committee.ails in a lawsuit filed today by a former benghazi committee investigators involving claims of discrimination. >>> plus, the escalating debate over president obama's strategy to defeat isis and the questions coming from lawmakers in his own party. i'll talk live with new york congressman gregory meeks from the house foreign affairs committee. a remarkable holiday party. just serve classy snacks and be a gracious host, no matter who shows up.

and one from cbs and it was bigger than benghazi, they covered it bigger than benghazi.nd i never really understood it, but that's the way the world of politics works, i guess. >> how's your campaign going? >> i think it was an outlier, but who knows. they played it very well,ly tell you. >> how do you think your campaign's going? it looks like in some of these polls, some of the -- states like new hampshire, fields bunting up underneath you, you're still in first place, but it's getting tighter, isn't it? >> i don't know. we've had some really good results in new hampshire, i have tremendous support in new hampshire. i love the people up there, made so many friends. i think it's going really well. i don't know. i mean, everything i've seen is very positive. even yesterday when i went to file, hundreds of people were there waiting for me. and we all went up together and filed. i think new hampshire's going really well. i think south carolina's been amaze, and as you saw, the most recent polls in iowa have me back in first place. >> you know, the title of your book, not e

but what is very interesting is what has come out in the interim since the very long benghazi hearings. we now know without a doubt that at least what she said was happening at the time we had ambassador steven and three others killed, that as secretary of state, she knew it was wrong. some take the leap that she was lying at the time. no for you we'll just say that it was at var krans with the facts that she presented, yet she has not gotten remotely burnt on this in the mainstream immediate why which she says she survived an 11 our ordeal. or are we glossing oefr ining o fact that complain not be denied, that there were lies and they were proven to be true. and they were approach to be in var krans wiiance with remarks had made. which would be a lie. the mainstream media has already begun an explanation and that voters are satisfied with her answers on benghazi and leave it with that. but on that issue, and i understand that she did comport herself very well in these hearings. but we do now know that that was brought up, that the e-mails showed right from the get-go she knew it wasn'

all the polling data shows the benghazi lies, the scandal, were mistakes made in benghazi? yes, nobody blames her for people dying in benghazi except for conservatives who would never vote for her, anyway. >> chris, they know she lied about the e-mails! >> who's going move this country forward? and if it's donald trump on the ballot, i would be concerned if i was at republican headquarters in d.c. right now. >> i agree hillary is going to move us forward right off the freakin' cliff. that's the difference in this election. charles: last word to you, chris, i don't see where you're not paying attention to educated women who are moving away from hillary clinton. a lot of democrats, that would have to close their eyes and pull a lever because they were democrats. can she motivate people to get off the sofa? the republicans are going to be more motivated, and you have a bad taste in your mouth. >> i think republicans will be more motivated. you don't recognize there are less and less republicans in this country every single day. as far as educated women not going for hillary cl

you saw hillary clinton laughing under headlines about her e-mail and benghazi. trump has reason to be targeting clinton than any of his republican opponents. his lead growing as the profile of one of his main challengers is starting to fade. msnbc's over at the big board with the latest numbers on this. >> it's interesting. what which are getting our first collection of numbers after the paris attacks. we are starting to see how those attacks, how the new emphasis on terrorism, national security is shaking up the presidential race. take a look at this. what you have here, this is the average of all the polls here. you take every individual poll that comes in from one organization or another. average them all together. we'll take a look at this. a couple of weeks ago ben carson took the lead. he got ahead of donald trump. no one has been able to do that since trump got in the race. now in the wake of the paris attacks, look at this. donald trump's up a few points from where he was. ben carson has fallen about five points in just the last couple of weeks. donald t

i think this is the effect of the benghazi hearing. stuart: joe biden jumping in?eople were waiting. you have the fact that he did not comment. we have to make a decision. >> now she is in the lead in new hampshire higher. she is the candidate. >> she is the candidate. stuart: to the markets. the dow industrial average is up for the year ended as of today. fifty-four points. getting close to 179. king digital. being bought out by activision. the price tag, that is the story. nearly $6 billion. fit that, higher profits. the company will issue more shares. fit its stock is down today. how about chipotle. closed 43 stores in seattle and portland because of the e. coli outbreak. more 664 expected from e. coli. get back to my take. i just set the president only sounds passionate when he is bashing the gop. >> what else is he supposed to do? in the debate, although party does is talk about how this will not be a third term for obama. they do not answer the question. what is he supposed to do but respond? >> a campaign. that is all he is good at. stuart: passion and emoti

ben carson saying hillary clinton lied on benghazi. and elsewhere tonight we had a number of those instances where the republicans wisely framed selves by opposing clinton. >> it better than last. >> trump gave an extended riff on how bad the asian trade deal was, because china did this and china didn't get that. and etc., etc. there was a sharp retort from rand paul saying wait a minute, china is not part of the trans-pacific trade deal. showing up trump for not being -- trump did well tonight, but not as well as the rest of the group but wasn't substantive on a night where the moderators were pushing for substance. >> you say trump did well, why? >> he said entertaining things but i think that if he ranked everybody, rubio of course, he has done well in everyone of them. he's in the top, top, ben carson did well compared to expectations. >> but you didn't see him. >> right. but the guy who on most was ted cruz. he did well on amnesty thing. lawyers and journalists. he did well on his tax cut. he escaped talking about how he wanted a

cnn's jake tapper asked jeb how he can hold hillary responsible for benghazi but not his brother for 9/11. and jeb was not ready for the question. >> how do you respond to critics who ask, if your brother and his administration bear no responsibility at all, how do you then make the jump that president obama and secretary clinton are responsible for what happened at benghazi? [ laughter ] >> well, i would -- if the question on benghazi, which is hopefully will now finally get some truth to it is, was that -- >> seth: uh-huh, yeah, uh-huh. [ laughter ] when he got the question, it was like he short-circuited for a second. now you might say that's an uncomfortable question for jeb since it's about his brother. but even when it comes to the most basic non-george questions, jeb finds a way to put his foot in his mouth. here he is last week answering the question, "who's your favorite super hero?" >> i like the old school guys like batman. little dark these days. >> good choice. good choice. [ applause ] >> i saw that there's -- uh, "supergirl" is on tv. i saw that when i was working out

[ laughter ] >> well, i would -- if the question on benghazi, which is hopefully will now finally get some truth to it is, was that -- was the place secure? >> seth: uh-huh, yeah, uh-huh. [ laughter ] when he got the question, it was like he short-circuited for a second. now you might say that's an uncomfortable question for jeb since it's about his brother. but even when it comes to the most basic non-george questions, jeb finds a way to put his foot in his mouth. here he is last week answering the question, "who's your favorite super hero?" >> i like the old school guys like batman. little dark these days. >> good choice. good choice. [ applause ] >> i saw that there's -- uh, "supergirl" is on tv. out this morning. there's an ad promoting "supergirl". she looked kind of -- she looks pretty hot. [ laughter ] >> seth: that answer proved that jeb's kryptonite is questions. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] but i will say, if this super hero thing is going to be a campaign question, let me suggest these answers for the rest of the g.o.p. field. donald trump, your favorite super hero

laughter ] "i'll wait, cake." [ laughter ] hillary clinton testified before the house committee on benghazi last week and while the testimony didn't reveal any new information, it did reveal some new looks from hillary. there's the "why are we even here" look. [ laughter ] the "i think my arm is asleep." [ laughter ] and, of course, the "i'm pretty sure one of these dudes just farted." [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] following joe biden's announcement he will not run for office in 2016, hillary clinton said she is confident that history isn't finished with joe biden. adding, "but i am! ha-ha!" [ light laughter ] still waiting, cake. former president bill clinton served as the warm-up act for for hillary's presidential then he stood in the audience and yelled out "sing that one about you kissin' another girl!

deirdre: she told the victims families after she told chelsea, clinton that the benghazi attack was arorist attack, she told or world leaders it was a terrorist attack, and told the victims families, it was a result of a video. she lied about that, it is more problematic for hillary clinton it is not, there is going to be a steady drum beat, voters have to be reminded about lies that hillary clinton told them, that is problematic. deirdre: i want to ask you this, being released at same time, the state department turning over about a thousand pages of her official calendar, it shows she mote with more than 100 corporatictives -- corporate economies, what your take? about i don't think. >> i don't think it is significant. it carries less weight if we don't know how many that are secretaries of state have mote with business leaders of that number or more. i don't think there is an issue with the secretary of state meeting with important business leaders, ahead are people hey may have known her entire political career. if the meetings were 10 minutes or a half an hour, does not seem to be

well, yes, the whole night. >> he's really put at least the republican-led benghazi issue to bed. >>ebate night, make or break night for many of the other candidates. >> the men and women on this stage have more ideas, more experience, more common sense than every participant in the democratic debate. that debate reflected a -- >> all right. 23 past the hour. time to welcome in ellis. boy, a lot of happens, hasn't it? >> and we have another year to go. is that what you said? >> and it gets better. listen to this. the headline yesterday wab gop campaigns were setting these new rules for the debate. they were all going to come together and establish what they wanted. well, now it seems like they can't all agree, so where does that leave the debate? >> okay. we get three facets. you have to walk through this. >> okay. >> we've got the whiners. we've got the attention grabbers. the ones who are just so happy to be there they'll agree to anything. >> on tv, yeah. >> and then we have trump and he's running his own personal negotiation of the television network. >> that's the thing. he's br

there is a lot to be determined about benghazi. the reporters i trust the most say that it is much more complicated than the republicans have tried to portray it. there is some responsibility of the obama administration and the state department. >> a lot of it is a money issue. cutbacks on providing security for american outposts around the world have been severe. they did not have enough people. hillary was very aware of taking care of people in the state department. obviously, she did not think of libya as being a place that needed to be fortified in advance. if she could've done anything important, that would have been its. >> the larger scheme of things, the quote of benghazi will be most remembered in the short term. that will be played over and over again. if she runs for president. in the course of history, people can say, what did she do a secretary of state? in terms of international diplomacy, you cannot point to that many accomplishments. but you can point to something that has been part of her from when she went to beij

>> well, then you have the benghazi investigation going on at that very time.en if it wasn't going on. if you anticipated it, but it was going on. then if you destroy records with the intent trying to obstruct an investigation, and if any of those records had anything this to do with benghazi, then would you have obstruction of justice as well as 10001. >> you might have quid pro quo if there are clinton foundation -- >> the speaking fee to bill clinton whether she intervened on ubs' behalf. that's another specific statute that makes it a crime to interfere in an internal revenue service investigation. her call to the irs was described as "unusual." then clinton got 1.2 million. >> let's assume that the fbi completes its investigation and they discover that there is enough evidence to indict and they bring this information to the attorney general and the obama administration, loretta lynch. let's say that we can point and cite example after example of people who were prosecuted, who did go to jail -- >> there are people that did. general petraeus. >> general pe

diplomatic outpost in benghazi in which ambassador stevens and three other americans were killed.her that question? >> look, they planned on i think asking a lot of other different kinds of questions. they even -- dickerson met with every campaign for some reason they had to refigure out what to handle because they weren't planning i think on asking many of these questions. but the fact of the matter is, they'll use a carly fiorina line. flying around the world is an activity. it isn't an accomplishment. and so i think hillary clinton's history of supporting obama's policies, of the absurd dynamic in benghazi, which i believe has led to this, sent a message that if the current administration is willing to cover up what happened in a terrorist attack, it meant that the terrorists could do whatever they want. i welcome hillary clinton having to explain her positions, her -- what she did and did not do while she was secretary of state, that this is a result of her supposed leadership. these are the things that will become very clear and to the lies and misleading that there is no vid

and george pataki may be granted time, as well. >>> the investigator fired from the benghazi committee june has filed a federal lawsuit against the committee. he's also personally suing his chairman, congressman trey gowdy, for defamation and discrimination. gowdy originally said the air force major was fired partially for mishandling classified information. pod his kasays that charge is totally false saying he was fired based on his military obligations and refusal to advance an agenda targeting hillary clinton. the committee tells msnbc the complaint is, quote, meritless. . >>> and a new pew poll finds only 19% of the americans trust the government always or most of the time. among the lowest levels in the past half century. bernie sanders leads online voting for "time's" person of the year by more than double second place malala yousafzai. ted cruz is tied for 55th place in that vote and last night jimmy fallon gave an update on his campaigning. >> ted cruz's campaign announced that it's going to launch a national prayer team next month. where people will pray for ted cruz to win. t

she spent 11 or 13 hours answering for benghazi not republican base but everyone else seemed to assuagens. what is happening in middle east she bears responsibility for, came out a few days ago and tried to distance herself from obama's tenure. david: that speech, that very plastic speech where she was reading intently from the prompter. >> nevertheless, if you read the transcript of it, you saw in the papers what she was trying to do. david: dan, quickly. >> chris christie gave a strong speech to council on foreign relations. i think he is putting it together. keep an eye on him. david: dan, ashley, julie, thank you very much. melissa. melissa: working hard to defeat isis hours after president obama pledged to destroy the terrorist group, barbra streisand and steven spielberg are set to receive our country's highest civilian honor. cold coming on? new zicam cold remedy nasal swabs shorten colds with a snap, and reduce symptom severity by 45%. shorten your cold with a snap, >> try the superior hold... ...of fixodent plus adhesives. they help your denture hold strong more like natural te

to follow it it was like what we used to try to figure out with bengha benghazi. >> according to thesearch it said at some point recently, to do with isis specifically, the metrics that they were using to call whatever they felt was successful, they changed it. so you can play games with statistics, you can tell someone you know, that over there is red and i can prove it to you with statistics. or you can say it's blue and i can prove it with statistics, that's fine. but the problem it wasn't statistics, the investigation that the investigator general is going do look at is whether or not it went beyond statistics, if it went beyond an actual changing of the information. which they're alleging this group of analysts saying, it had nothing to do with the way we look at the analysis or the way we analyze the data. it has to do with actual fabrication, changing of information. and that could be, that would be criminal. >> i think what they said was get on board if you're not on board with the direction they wanted, that's -- >> there's emails to that effect. >> they're saying by the way

i have a lot of questions how libya was handled, particularly benghazi and what we're looking now withsts reaching out across nine countries with isis, so on and so forth. and what she would be doing differently. andrea: the last debate, not the one the past saturday, first one, hillary clinton claimed that libya was stable. the things she has said have gotten her in hot water here not in just respect to benghazi but everything. calling for 65,000 refugees. won't say isis is war or we're fighting islamic terrorism. she has a lot of achilles heels here. >> potentially now that the debate turned towards national security and terrorism in 2016 election. reminding you there is still a year before people vote. she may be more vulnerable than she was. it will be interesting to see how far away from president obama she distances herself. she was on the record just the other day saying, no, it is not contained. we need to destroy isis. that is contradictory to what the president said. but she also has to be careful that she doesn't ice the president out. if she hopes to become president she ne

two weeks after benghazi obama gave a speech at the united nations that it does not belong to those isit of islam. after our people are killed by lunatics he gives dublin a ticks the book that the -- the benefit of the doubt what the living hell is that? that draw on their own free speech under the bus to tell people out there if you want to get your grievance these - - grievances' legitimized killing enough people progress simple as that. and telling us you may not want to go that far because people will take a the wrong way. that will be inflammatory were reducing our free speech while legitimizing the monstrous grievances of prehistoric people. kennedy: ultimate cleaning the victim. this is offensive. >> is dangerous because it incentivizes people with you reward behavior you get more of it. to say if you have a sense of grievance we will highlight it because you kill and a people. >> did you have a lot of colleagues over there. it is such a crazy time and given it to hysteria when dash hysteria and given rationality to the discussion. we were made vulnerable to attack and help to e

today air force reservist, major bradley podliska formally filed a lawsuit against the house benghazimittee and its chairman, republican congressman trey gowdy. the suit alleges that podliska was unlawfully fired from the committee because of reservist duties. it said that they responded by intentionally defaming podliska, making numerous false allegations to multiple news outlets. this is what congressman gowdy had to say about him last month. >> well, it's a damn lie, and that's not a word that i often use. he was a lousy employee. and that was evidenced by the fact that he mishandled classified information and he wouldn't do what his supervisors instructed him to do. >> ari melber joins me now with more details on this new lawsuit. ari, this former staffer, we heard him go public about a month ago. now he's back with a lawsuit. what's in it? >> exactly. he went public and said he had these concerns. today's the first time he put them in writing in federal court, saying they discriminated against him because he's a veteran. he alleges they were mad when he had to leave to serve and

before the benghazi testimony. before joe biden got out of the race. >> even when the media and a lot of voters are turning away from those two issues, they still don't trust her. that's the fundamental flaw in her candidacy. >> charles? >> she's still up by 30 points. the nomination is in her pocket. i think she simply wants to run left, she makes it by acclamation, she wants it to be a coronation. the reason she's able to undertake that. she looks at the republican side, who should have spent the last five months attacking the seven years of democratic governance and attacking her and her record, but instead have been lobbing insults at each other and are spending a week gloating about their triumph over cnbc when they should have quit while they're ahead and come back to what the country wants to hear. what they're going to do. the degree to which the republicans, 16 candidates have ignored the real opposition, meaning the democrats, obama and hillary, is simply astonishing. that's allowed her to go to the left.

bill: spokesperson, white house committee on benghazi said this.tary clinton may use fog of war as convenient excuse why she said one thing in private and something else in public the realty that is just another smoke screen, end quote. she said at hearing on benghazi last month, that she referred to the video that night in very specific way. i said some have sought to justify the attack because of the video. she won't ascribe a motive to every attacker. is there wiggle room in this legally? >> yes, there is wiggle room legally but she is mistress of deception. she used words so carefully chosen to create the impression that she was not lying when she said this was done as a result of a video. bill: powerful stuff. judge, thank you. andrew napolitano. this from the email dump last friday. >> why are these dumps always on friday nights? to keep people like me busy on weekend. bill: these are your people. martha. martha: ruined the judge's halloween i bet. special inspector general sounding alarm, what he calls a quote, outrageous waste of money afgh

she said that what happened in benghazi was the result of a video. we all know that story. but what we found out is that she told her daughter and told the prime minister of egypt that it was not a video. that it was -- that's an old story. how did the media handle this? they said it was the best weeks of her campaign. that she was presidential. the republicans were just out to get her. melissa: you know what i think the difference might be though? >> that was not important to them. melissa: i think difference might be ben carson's brand is truth and decency. >> absolutely. melissa: that is his calling card. so this strikes at his fundamental brand, in the case of the clintons they have stretched the truth for a long time. people are used to it. it doesn't undermine their basic brand. >> hold on. it is legitimate to go after him because, as i said, it is his life story that he is running on. so to examine his life story is perfectly legitimate. but if the argument is, that he is running as a person who is honest and clintons don't run as people are honest. melissa: right. >

that's what -- that was the -- you're looking for a benghazi effect. here she strengthened her hold on the democratic nomination and at the same time, showed more vulnerability with the middle of the electorate. that to me only should add to the warning signs. on one hand, democrats are very comfortable with how she handledself and what she did but she had a long way to go with the middle of the electorate when it comes to honest and trustworthy. >> do you think she hurt herself by what she said was a joking reference to republicans being the enemy? >> she might have. i think it's been interesting that that's been what a lot of candidates have taken, have jumped on, including joe biden, former candidate, former potential candidate, he jumped on it. jeb bush has been using it, he used it with me in an interview, he's used it with others. you have seen other candidates. i don't know if it's hurt her yet. it could hurt her down the road in a general election. because what's interesting here, we asked this question. do you want a candidate who will work fo

because of the tragedy of benghazi, the loss of life there, the u.s.as used that as , some i say, in excuse to expand around the continent. as a result, there now in -- they are now a weapon of contingency security locations, csl's, basically austere bases that can be ramped up in very -- very quickly. the u.s. maintains rapid response forces in spain and in italy. and these forces are designed to deploy to these 11 csl's across the continent's of the u.s. can respond in the event of another because i does benghazi-type crisis. whenever u.s. boots on the ground, whenever it builds bases, these things have a tendency to more beyond their original -- what they were originally set up to do. i think in the future, you will probably see them as launching pad for other types of missions. juan: and the situation in the horn of africa, specifically somalia, which for years has source of problems and concerns for the united states? what is going on there? , notst this morning something of reported on just something i've been following on the news, we see kenyan
