[laughter and applause] which i'm sure they had -- you know those guys famously wore masks. [laughter and applause] so i'm sure isis is doing just fine is the point. and if you are wondering. the reason i was traveling -- you know sometimes when you're at the airport and you go through tsa and they see something your bag you don't recognize so they have to take it out to look at it, the thing they saw in my carry-on was a notebook. they were like we've never seen anything like this before. and then the agent took it and he was like looking inside. and i was like what are you doing? and he was like i just want to see what's inside. and i was like inside the notebook? probably word

have had questions about chaotic or unsuccessful military withdrawals or military endeavors like benghazi, that is typically followed with congressional investigation and hearing, not necessarily with proceedings and courts-martial. how unprecedented is this to move it to the military system of justice? >> you are right to flag that because we have congressional hearings and a lot of posturing that goes on but you have reviews, the 9/11 commission, a very thorough and successful review of how the 9/11 attacks were missed and how they occurred that resulted in major reforms in the u.s. government. you had u.s. military special commissions that have done this before, that is appropriate. court-martial's is extremely unusual. this is a judicial process, possibly people being imprisoned in military prison for misconduct. it is very unusual, is it bluster, we don't know. it is happening. >> david road, thank you for those insights, appreciate it. >>> next up, we get more on trump's pick for defense secretary, pete hegseth, as well as the world, the far right media, and frenchmen podcast could
