tapper, bernstein and large are team behind that. today we had the president-elect of the united states accuse cnn and my colleague there jim acosta, accuse the organization of fake news. terrible he repeated multiple times. when in fact a short time later the director of national intelligence speaks to the president-elect and releases a statement that directly contra dicts. read it again. part of the obligation is ensure that policy makers are provided with fullest information that might affect national security. referencing the document we were first to report. contradicting the allegation, and this is highest national security official in the land, just an hour after kellyanne conway for a half hour accused us of fake news. i think it's remarkable moment. and james clapper, he will go to hearings, he has certainly done interviews with us myself at cnn and others. but to issue a statement in his name after speaking directly to the president-elect, he's setting the record straight. we did a lot of hard work on this story, already ve

carl bernstein brought up attacking the press. jim acosta was party to that today after donald trump's nis characterized cnn's reporting, jim acosta tried to ask a follow-up question. let's listen to the whole exchanging. > since you are attacking our news organization. >> not you. your organization terrible. >> you are attacking our news organization. >> can you give us a chance to ask a question, sir. >> go ahead, quiet, quiet. >> plts president-elect. >> he's asking a question. >> can you give us a question. >> don't be rude. >> can you give us a question. >> don't be rude. i'm not going to give you a question. i'm not. >> can you state categorically. >> you are fake news. >> can you state categorically -- mr. president-elect, that's not appropriate. >> has this ever happened to you before. >> no, i've covered four presidential campaigns, democrats and republicans. i once asked president obama why can't we take out the bastards when referring to isis. you ask hard questions and expectancies. this is the president of the united

bernstein. >> reporter: you should be here where i am. look at all this snow. we look up in the skies, still coming down at a nice clip here. really it's a beautiful side and a very well behaved snow. we'll show you the roads here coming up in a few minutes. you can see, just going to wipe some of the snow off the hood of the car. looks like maybe an inch or so. give or take. and perhaps we'll get another half inch, inch up here before things pull up. it's been a beautiful snow. it's been well behaved. we'll see you in a few minutes with the road conditions. i'm meteorologist howard bernstein. >> we love it. for many of you this is the scene. nice, clear roads. this is a live look at the intersection of sam ike highway. traffic is moving pretty good out there. we hope it stays that way. now thousands of you watched our storm tracker 9 feed on facebook. a lot of yo see many flakes, many of you shared your facebook pictures. >> a nice blanket of snow covering the ground. >> mackenzie in hagerstown shared this picture from her home. you can just about see part of

rich bernstein, for example, the ceo, richard bernstein advisers is in the camp that earnings will expand for several different reasons. first, trump may not get everything he wants but he is not going to come away empty handed. there will be a reduction and there will be some kind reduction many regulation. second we'll get some kind of stimulus program. it is unusual to get a stimulus program when the economy is improving but it is going to help earnings. certainly for industrials and materials. third, the global economy is improving and we are no longer in a global deflationary environment. now, with this kind of date, a bernstein said it is rational to believe that stocks will rally and bonds will not. for "nightly business report," at the new york stock exchange. >> it is a big week for the margaret but stocks have been idle for weeks despite the spike that bob was talking about. is this lull in volatility a sign that maybe the market is too quiet important investors are confused? michael jones, chairman and chief investment officer joins us now. mr. jones, welcome. good to have you

he's been working on this a long time, 22nd year they've done it, it's todd bernstein. >> good morning. >> why here? why girard college. >> girard college has a storied civil rights story when started was for fatherless white orphan boys and in the mid 60s dr. king came here and protested in a rally outside the gates and three years later they started admitting young black students and it has an experience in civil right and it's amazing institution. >> if you come to girard college what can you see, hear, do? >> there are 5,000 people

. >> carl bernstein, you were part of the reporting. donald trump has been calling this fake news. james clapper called me yesterday to announce a false and fictitious report that was made up, phony facts, too bad. >> it's a very selective reading of what clapper wrote and what the facts are. >> that's not exactly what happened. >> it's very clear what's happened here. what donald trump and kellyanne conway have been saying is simply not truthful about the reporting of this event. and what occurred in their briefings in the president-elect's briefings. but there's a larger question that underlies this. this information has been considered seriously enough by the fbi, by the intelligence community that they believe it needs to be run down. and that's what we're going to see. it's raw intelligence files of a sort that could be rumor, that could be factual in some parts, that could be right, wrong, but it needs to be run down. there's another component to this, and that is donald trump's lack of transparency and conflicts of interest particularly about his dealings in the part of the

guest host this morning richard bernstein. ceo of richard bernstein advisors., you say you want to play low quality cyclicality. so very high beaten names. >> yes. i think people -- there's always this notion if you like something you like quality companies, that's kind of a chicken's way of investing. if you like something, you want the companys that have great financial leverage and operating leverage, which are generally lower quality companies. so if you believe in a lot of the talk this morning was all about reflation, if you believe the reflation story, you don't buy big cap cyclical names. you buy small cap cyclicals. they're the ones that will have all the operating leverage. >> richard, great stuff. thank you for joining us this morning. >> thank you for having me. >> they'll bring you up-to-date on "squawk on the street" and more @realdonaldtrump is sending out more tweets. stay tuned, "squawk on the street" is next. >>> and good wednesday morning. welcome to "squawk on the street." i'm carl quintanilla with jim cramer, david faber at the new york sto

right elements and getting elements from its own sources as well, as i say partly written by carl bernsteinedia some might argue and conflating that with buzz feed chucking absolutely everything out there with no filter whatsoever. donald trump talking about the good news, he made it clear that he believed that cnn was a fake news organisation because it got involved in this, yet he has profited from the news over the last year through the news over the last year through the whole campaign. as a former communications director at yourself, how would you have varied, the you think, in this completely new, incredibly difficult media world?” look at it and i think back to the days when i worked for tony blair and alistair campbell in downing street and we had our own war against the media, even though the media was more benign toward tony blairthan it is media was more benign toward tony blair than it is toward donald trump in america and it occurred to me, we would have loved to undermine the media in the wake donald trump has succeeded in undermining it. our objective was to turn and when it

carl bernstein is also on the phone and senior political analyst david gergen.we have a lot to get to this evening. so i want -- let's, carl, you're on the phone. just moments ago, the new acting attorney general, dana boente, just issued guidance on the travel ban to the department of justice and it says, and i quote here, i hereby rescind former acting attorney general sally q. yates on january 30, 2017, guidance and direct the men and women of the department of justice to do our sworn dudey and to defend the lawful orders of our president. what do you make of this? >> first of all, he's within his authority to fire her. i don't think there's any question about that, but it just contributes to the chaos that has been sewn by an order that ostensibly was made to protect the united states. but in fact, it's very obvious, was made to protect and advance his own political position, and at the expense of the national security of the united states. what we are seeing, in terms of the haste of this order, the recklessness of the way it was promulgated, the message it

jim sciutto is with us, as well and commentator carl bernstein. we have a very full house. a very full screen for the audience at home. i appreciate it. mark, i'm going to start with you. mark preston that is. first, your thoughts on paul ryan, the town hall? what was your biggest take away what the first 100 days will bring? >> well, three quick things that were extremely important. one the speaker of the house said he plans to have a repeal and replace bill for obamacare done within the first 100 days. that is a very ambitious effort on his part but something that donald trump the president-elect has said he has wanted. he also has talked about russia. he was specifically very hard on vladimir putin. he described russia as a menace but not only a menace, a global menace that does not share our interests. our interests being the united states' interests at this time. he also talked about how russia violates our neighbors. this flies in the face of what we've seen the president-elect have to say about russia and at the very end, he talked about social media and how donald t

todd bernstein is the founder andy and director of the event. he spoke to us about how the event is growing and the theme this year. >> the overall theme is educational justice we'll be creating 250 mini libraries for unconventional polices in the city like barber shops, nail salons and laundromats with kids go with their parents. >> reporter: and this is video from past years, 25 employers will be here for a job fair, there's a kids carnival and expo with dozens of community observations on hand. counties across the area in pennsylvania, new jersey and delaware are holding events you can volunteer at all day long. you can see the beautiful artwork that lines the wall. this is artwork from the past 22 years they have been doing this event, and down there you can see that there's five specific paintings murals that have been created by five area schools all of them with the theme educational justice that they are supporting this year. it's not too late even if you're not scheduled to come out to girard college. like we said there are so many diff

richard bernstein ceo of richard bernstein advisers. thanks for joining us today. >> thanks, beck. >> if you're saving for retirement and you see this dow 20000 milestone come up, does it matter? what should you think about it? >> well, i don't think the number really matters, although i guess judging by the question, people are starting to wake up that maybe there really is a bull market after seven or eight years. but what should you do? i think if you're a millennial, a 20-something, 30-something, whatever happens to the market, the ups and downs, the gyrations, are completely meaningless. think about it. 30-year or 40-year time frame. older, approaching retirement, an old rule of thumb. i don't know if it means anything, the rule of thumb, take 100 mine es your age how many equity you should have in your portfolio. you do that rule and not close, thinking to do. why haven't you been there? why are you sitting on the sidelines. >> go over that rule of thumb for people who don't know it well. you're say, 60, take 100, subtract 60, 40%

howard bernstein with a look at your martin luther king, jr. day forecast. >> temperatures in the 30s and 40s now. it looks like it's raining or maybe snowing a little bit across some of the mountains well to the west. when we zoom in, two things are going on. one notice west of i-81, but the other thing, a lot of this has evaporated before ever reaching the ground it's so dry. i'm optimistic if we're seeing anything out there, it's fairly light. on futurecast the showers are well to the south by charlottesville, richnd generally the i-64 corridor with temperatures tomorrow morning in the low to mid-30s, a cloudy monday, lunchtime only around 40, upper 30s. then in the afternoon high of about 44, but notice monday evening a couple specks of green start showing up. we'll have a couple showers here and there tomorrow afternoon into tomorrow night, but tuesday looks to get even wetter than that, but we'll have temperatures climbing into the 50s by then and we'll come back in a few minutes and talk about warmer weather for the middle of the week an

meteorologist howard bernstein is in the see hi storm tracker 9. how'd? >> hey, let me just tell you, i have little trouble hearing you and apoll jazz if you asked me a question. but really nice conditions right now no. problems as we look out the front. we're passing rose month avenue and northbound u.s. 15. driving up here we saw the lines the stripes on the road on 270. state highway has been out pretreating the roads and did that yesterday. and i've been talking to state highway and right now they are staging, they're loading the salt trucks and stuff and what i understand is that at 1:00 p.m. there will be a stid state highway depots and after 1:00 the folks up here in frederick and district 7 will have their marching orders to see how many folks that they're going to be keeping on staff tonight to deal with the event. state highway friend thomas cornson. he says -- compton. he says this should be an event that's in the going to -- not going to surprise anybody. he says tomorrow morning the roads will be chemically wet. if they're going to be treated

richard bernstein is the ceo of bernstein advisors. good to see you today. >> thanks, becky. >> if you're saving for retirement and you see this dough 20,000 milestone does it matter? what do you think about it? >> i don't think the numbers really matters but i guess judging by the question people are starting to wake up that maybe there is a market after seven or eight years. but i think if you're a millennial, 20 something, 30 something, whatever happens to the market the ups and downs are completely meaningless. i mean, think about it. you timeframe. if you're older and you're approaching retirement there's that kind of old rule of thumb. i don't know if it means anything but the rule of thumb is that you take 100 minus your age and that's how much equity you should have in your portfolio. if you do that rule and you're not even close i think you have some thinking to do. why haven't you been there. why have you been sitting on the sidelines. >> let's go over that rule of thumb for people that don't know it very well. if you're 60 y

let's bring back evan perez and cnn political analyst carl bernstein along with senior international correspondent collar ris is ward in moscow. carl and evan worked together on this report alongside jim sciutto and jake tapper. carl, let me begin with you. you heard kellyanne conway saying this was leaked by the intelligence communities classified information that shouldn't be out there. >> our sources for this information originally were not the intelligence community. in terms of the underlying documents and story, which i began working on a good while ago as did others at cnn, the intelligence community was not the original source of this information. this is part of a counter narrative that the trump campaign and the trump organization would like us to believe. look, this information may be true, may not be true. in fairness to donald trump, we have to say it's unproven allegations from foreign intelligence sources, originates with russians, over to an american former -- british former intelligence agent. it's a long trail. but there is enough in there that the chiefs of america

let me bring in carl bernstein.arl, when we're all working together in the story, you brought this to us, this information the underlying memos that was included as an annex to the intelligence community report, the underlying memos did not start with u.s. intelligence or with the fbi or u.s. law enforcement. where dwid they come from? >> the underlying memos were produced by a former british mi6 intelligence operator in the former soviet union. he had been hired by a research firm that does opposition research and this firm had been doing opposition research on the trump campaign, on donald trump, for both republicans and democrats opposed to the trump presidency. as this firm in washington started to look at trump's visits to russia, his business ties to russians and those of others in his family, they then took their information to this mi6 person in london, former mi6 person with whom they'd worked before, to see if he could further develop information. over the course of months he began producing reports and by

but you know, carl bernstein actually raised the earlier bigger picture point, which is this constant of denial about russia's influence and attempted influence in the u.s. i don't think is connected as much to the elections for donald trump. i think it's really connected to his relationship, his cloudy relationship with putin and russian financiers. and that's really going to be the critical thing that americans need to hear over the next couple of weeks, is what is donald trump's relationship there? >> you know, kayleigh, carl bernstein said that moments ago but there are others who said the same thing, that maybe he doesn't want to divest, maybe he is denying that russia had an influence because somehow he is entangled with russia, maybe owing russia money and so on. >> i don't think that's it. i think if you look at history you see president bush who tried to give russia a chance, calling them a strategic partner. that failed. obama praised putin in i believe it was his kitchen. that failed. trump's wanting to give him a chance as the other presidents have done and they were prove

can trump do some of the things he's pledged, helping me figure this out is jared bernstein, a seniorfellowng me figure this out is jared bernstein, a senior fellow in the centre of policy and budget priorities, he worked in the obama administration and was chief economist and economic adviser to the former vice presidentjoe biden. we are alsojoined the former vice presidentjoe biden. we are also joined by one member of donald trump ‘s transition team, diana furchtgott—roth, senior fellow at the manhattan institute. and last but not least i am pleased to be joined by laurie waller, director of public citizen ‘s global trade watch, national nonprofit advocacy group that looks at government and corporate accountability in globalisation and trade. laurie, if i could start with you, i want to talk about the issue of trade. one of the promises trump made on the campaign trail was to repeal nafta, is their president that this? campaign trail was to repeal nafta, is their president that this7m campaign trail was to repeal nafta, is their president that this? it is possible. a president can't unila

with me david gergen, jim scuitto, carl bernstein. want to continue on what we were talking ability before. you wanted to weigh in what ari fleischer was saying, why the information was in there, whether it was a leak and where that leak came from? >> let's talk about why it's in there. the truth is we don't know exactly. right. the largest intelligence agencies that have access to a lot of information that we don't have access to. that's one thing. we know that the director of national intelligence clapper in a statement last night says they have not substantiated but they also haven't dismissed the content of the allegations in that dossier. we know from our own reporting, the former mi-6 operative who prepared it is a source that u.s. intelligence agencies have used before. they found his information and his source credible. again, there is conflicting information in there. we looked at it. some things don't stand up to the test. we know mike morrell, the former acting director told christiane amanpour of cnn he seen the documents

carl bernstein, evan perez, jim sciutto, thank you so much.n burnett, back to you. >> thank you very much, jake tapper. obviously a crucial breaking news report. >>> here we are awaiting president obama. we understand he is at a local restaurant in chicago. he is now going to come where we are as we count you down to his good-bye address to the nation. his farewell speech tonight. >>> plus, michelle obama, her equally historic eight years as first lady. perhaps the biggest question is what is next for her. >>> and some memorable moments from the obama years including his emotional words after the massacre at sandy hook elementary school. >> every time i think about those kids, it gets me mad. and by the way, it happens on the streets of chicago every day.

let me bring in carl bernstein. carl, one of the things that's so fascinating about this is something has changed about this information since it was floating around washington last summer. first of all, my sources indicate to me that the fbi has looked into this individual who wrote the underlying memo upon which the synopsis was at least partly based, found him to be credible, found his sources to be credible. he has apparently a network of sources throughout europe. and also the intelligence officials now have presented this to the president and the president-elect. it's really quite a shocking turn of events. >> it certainly never happened before where you've had a president-elect and an outgoing president who had been presented with information by the chiefs of the intelligence agencies of the united states and said this is about the incoming president and there is a claim that we are looking into that we has been compromised. and they are looking to see if there is any real evidence that he has been compromise

let's get straight to cnn's carl bernstein and jim sciutto, cnn chief national security correspondent. jim, you have some exclusive reporting for us on the nation's top intelligence officials briefing the president-elect and the current president last week about claims russian efforts tried to compromise the president-elect. >> let's walk you through what we know and how we know t multiple u.s. officials with direct knowledge of these briefings tell cnn that classified documents on russian interference in the 2016 election, presented to president obama and president-elect trump included allegations that russian on tperatives claim to e compromising information about mr. trump, based on memos by a former british intelligence operative, whose past work u.s. intelligence agencies consider to be credible. the fbi is now investigating the credibility and accuracy of these allegations which are based primarily on information from russian sources, but the fbi has not confirmed any essential details in these memos about mr. trump. they were presented by four of the senior-most u.s. intelligen

karl bernstein said the opposite. for this to be part of the news and news organizations to talk about it the best version of the truth chief intelligence officials saw this material and thought it deserved investigation. brian: add to that he was one of the people at cnn who broke the story. what he is saying -- not saying to bob woodward you are wrong. what he is saying is because the cia and james clapper and the national intelligence director included it in the briefing it makes it news. bob woodward is saying you should have never included it in the briefing. so don't use it as your validation. steve: here is the thing. cnn says via their sources that it was part of the briefing. but the transition people say we were there. it was never part -- that two-paged a on thing was never part of it. brian: the vice president said it was there, and the president said it was there vice president biden came back and said when president obama read it he said why are you telling me this? steve: see, that's it. they mention oh

i worked on this story with evan perez and carl bernstein.een working sources for several days. i will start with my colleague and walk us through the basic outline of what we learned. >> this was a team reporting effort and multiple officials with direct knowledge of those briefings. classified documents on russian interference in the 2016 election. they were presented last week to president obama and president-elect trump and included allegations th s thas russian operatives seemed to have information about mr. trump. they were part of a synopsis based on memos whose passwords are considered credible. they are investigating the credibility and accuracy based on information from russian sources, but the fbi has not confirmed many essential details about mr. trump. the briefings last week were presented by four of the senior most u.s. intelligence chiefs, director of national intelligence and fbi's james comey. john brennan and nsa director mike rogers. the two-page synopsis included these allegations that there was a continuing exchange of i

. >> last night, and another network, carl bernstein is concerned about the new president's maturity and state of mind and using words like that, do you think we'll ever hear that bust out in the public? >> there is no question about it. what you will see and you will see the fractures start over this issue with the tariffs with mexico. the trump party and the steve bannon party and this ideology and this nationalism and populism. the republican party is the conservative party and the legislation branch party. if we move down the road and get into issues of spending and tariffs, republicans vote will not be there to pass these portions of the agenda. this is very much a coalition government. there is a agreement on some issues but there is disagreements on other issues and i have no doubt on national security issues. john mccain, lyndsey graham, ben sac and a couple of others will be clear about where their red lines are with regards of their president particularly of his capacity to destabilize alliances or create more danger in an already profoundly dangerous world. >> interesting

and it's keeping the blame on the victim. >> reporter: the church denounces bernstein specifically assurge gil says his psychiatrist was nothing but helpful. >> it was the best thing to happen to me, because finally, i had someone that had a clinical understanding of what was done to me and what was sold to me. the therapy with my doctor was everything i wish i would have had, just someone that would listen to me and understand me and not judge me. >> reporter: he says psychotherapy finally allowed him to deal with his experiences and also to see that it was actually healthy for him to cut ties with anyone in the church, including his family. >> he is capable of manipulating, lying and saying things that are not true. >> reporter: the church sent us these video statements from serge's father and sister, attacking his character and credibility. >> one thing that should be known about sergio is that he is a really, really amazing liar. >> there's people out there saying, stop the disconnection, i say, bring on the disconnection. disconnect yourself from toxicity, because it's not okay.

i'm meteorologist howard bernstein. back to you. >> and don't forget, our wake- up washington team will be on air at 4:00 they will have updated traffic before you head out the door. and also the latest school closings, too. >>> testifying before the senate top foreign agency. craig boswell reports tonight, much of the hearing focus was on russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election. >> our roll outnext week. >> national intelligence director, james clapper told the senate that russia's interference in the 2016 election was a multifaceted campaign. >> the hacking was only one part of it. it also entailed class cal propaganda, disinformation, fake news. >> clapper said russia's involvement is a major threat to the u.s. government and military. >> whether or not that constitutes think, is a very heavy policy call. >> reporter: pleactd donald trump has been dismissive at times of the intelligence community's conclusion that russia tried to influence the election. this week, he appeared to embrace claims from wikile

the speech was recorded by saul bernstein, who was working as the european correspondent for pacifica radio. bernstein's recording was recently discovered by brian deshazor, director of the pacifica radio archives. this is that address by dr. martinin luther king, jrjr. >> i want to talk with you mainly about our struggle in the united states and, before taking my seat, talk about some of the larger struggles in the whole world and some of the more difficult struggles in places like south africa. but there is a desperate, poignant question on the lips of people all over our country and all over the world. i get it almost everywhere i go and almost every press conference. it is a question of whether we are making any real progress in the struggle to make racial justice a reality in the united states of america. and whenever i seek to answer that question, on the one hand, i seek to avoid an undue pessimism. on the other hand, i seek to avoid a superficial optimism. and i try to incorporate or develop what i consider a realistic position, by admitting on the one hand that we have made m

in addition to the many sources, jake, evan, myself and carl bernstein talked to before these most senior intelligence officials went public with this information, before that, we spoke to people who had knowledge of that conversation who told us on background because of the classified nature of the information involved they couldn't go on the record, they told us on background, we were confident of that. but now you have this second step of director of national intelligence clapper and the vice president of the united states going public in effect contradicting, correcting the record, not just that kellyanne conway laid out but frankly i'm more concerned as an american, as a journalist, with what the president laid out. he accused our network, our reporters of spreading fake news when in fact we were right. and why does that matter? it doesn't matter, you and i know, anderson and jake and jim would agree, it doesn't matter because of our feelings or whether we can sleep at night. it matters because this is a democracy, an open society, and we rely on our public officials, our leaders giv

carl bernstein. what do you make of what he is saying? >> i think there's no necessity for the press secretary to whine like that because donald trump won a great victory and the press knows it and the press has reported on it. it is one of the great upsets in american political history. and he deserves all the credit for that that he's getting. that doesn't mean, though, that the picture of america that they're drawing in the white house of this huge mandate is accurate. what it means is that he won the electoral college, he's 3 million votes behind in the popular vote. it's a divided country. it's going to be a fascinating development to watch this occur. but we don't need lying on the part of the white house to advance what they're doing. but nonetheless, the fact that the president tweets, i think it's terrific. it's like an mri of his psyche. it's really amazing. and we get to see it direct, no filter. it's telling us a lot. but let's back off from making the conduct of the press the issue here. the press has reported accurately and
