if you heard bob gates on our show yesterday, you would be very worried about the years to come and trump's impact on our democracy. so, elise, i mean, first of all, how many ways can we count how many times trump has thrown people away and yet these idiots follow him. i guess my question to you, is there a direct connection between what's happening in florida and texas and what went down in georgia with these voting laws that could further destabilize our country on the foreign stage? >> mika, it's petrifying. and you look at how these politicians are so shameless and they just really have no sense of decency and they're willing to use their offices to promote a lie. and i like that mark caputo pointed out that the election law in florida is a lot of theater, because that's what this is. 9/11 happened, traumatic, so many people died on american soil. we're stuck with security theater at our airports for the rest of our lives. now with this, how are our election going to fundamentally change because donald trump is a self-inflicted trauma with this imaginary crisis and so we have state poli

bob gates has always said that i have been in my lifetime search for a moderate iranian. the probability is that there are distinctions without a difference between that leadership team and hardliners. the outcome of the last administration, killing soleimani and other activities in the region, it is not a foregone conclusion that we are going to see him reelected. if a real hardliners coming, we might find a difference in the regional behavior but also view on its enrichment and how it has to defend itself. and ultimately its willingness to deal. the other thing that i would say is that the actions that we take to your question about the uae, we should try to have as one of the outcomes of these cover stations on nuclear capabilities and civil programs, all of our actions have to reinforce our commitment and their global commitment to the nuclear nonproliferation treaty. every occasion where we are in these conversations where the outcome could lessen the strength of the treaty, then i think we create a greater danger down the road. when you hear the others who have civi

bob gates has always said i've been in my lifetime search for a moderate iranian i've never found one so the probability is maybe there's distinctions without the difference between that team, that leadership team and hardliners but the outcome of the last administration, killing suleimani and other activities in the region, it is not a foregone conclusion we are going to see rouhani be reelected and if hardliners come in we may find the difference in regional behavior and ultimately its willingness to deal on the issue of the jcpoa. the other thing i'd say is that the actions we take your question about the uae as we should always try to have as one of the outcomes of all of these conversations we have on nuclear capabilities and civilnuclear programs , all our actions have got to in the end reinforce our commitment and the global commitment to the nuclear nonproliferation treaty. and every occasion where we are in these conversations where the outcome could in fact lessen the strength of the nonproliferation treaty then i think we create a greater injure for us going down theroad .

i know it's experts in specific -- when you look -- >> are you thinking something like -- >> bob gatese of people making contact already. nominating themselves to serve. that will not be a problem. >> that's very washington. >> i think there will be -- i think it will be diverse as well as competent. >> when you have seen the attempt to change what happened, right -- we have this narrative attempt. we saw it on wednesday in the oversight committee. i know it wasn't in your committee. how much -- to me, is it a coincidence that after that gaslighting session that many house republicans parched in that suddenly there was an agreement? >> well, i would like to say that that got us to that point. but we were just about at this point where we are now. it's unfortunate that individuals are actually recreating what occurred on january 6th to basically infer that what people saw with their own eyes did not occur. that's unfortunate. we think that this bipartisan commission will look at it, will come back with sound recommendations that entire congress can look at. again, we take pride in the f

. >> that was bob gates. >>> more than four months after the insurrection, national guard troops arepitol grounds. retired lieutenant generally lead the security review following the capitol riot said troops accomplished their mission of securing the building. still the capitol and surrounding area will not be immediately open to visitors because of a strain on resources. more than seventy rank and fire capitol police officers resigned and retired since january. a law enforcement force said it's likely more than the normal rate of attrition. >>> all right. travel is snapping back as the economy reopens. newly vaccinated americans hitting the road and flying again. that means pricing are rising. saturday the tsa screened more than a million people traveling through u.s. airports. air fares are up. for months, planes are mostly empty and airlines slashed flights as demand returns, you probably noticed those restrictions also returning on the lowest price air fares. people are heading to the beach or theme parks after being inside for the past year. hotel profits are back to about half

around the words from ourselves, former the words of our former cia director and secretary of defense bob gatesge with china. don't get me wrong, i'm not suggesting that there are not some issues with the employment force and finding ways to to incentivize people going back to work. this is a maul moment in a huge feature film here. if we don't if i can out ways to invest in the things that we need to invest in for the next 5 to 10 to 15 to 20 years of a battle, of you new cold war we are kidding ourselves. if we don't find ways to do what mr. shriver said a little while ago find ways to come together which means that joe biden ought to be focused on a bipartisan deal on infrastructure. he has done the things he had to do with his own party. it's now time to advance something that's going to advance the country with broad support. even if that means coming down from the 1.9 trillion which democrats have laid out from the outset. >> bret: well, listen, harold, the fact that you have a lot of people on wall street now saying that the market improved today because they saw the bad jobs report and

you talk to secretary bob gates last night and he made that same point. as soon as the soviet union collapsed, the taliban essentially gained a lot more control. so, the united states taxpayers are still going to be in afghanistan funding the afghan government and they are hoping that they can keep the taliban at bay. >> bret: yeah. that's always a big issue, too, when it gets to budget time about foreign aid and what that means and what the dollar amount should be. so, this is one of those efforts. the interesting thing and, i used to cover the pentagon. and when the defense secretary and the chairman of the joint chiefs went out there, it was every day when we were back there in the middle much the afghan and iraq wars. but, this was asked to the defense secretary. what is your top priority? take a listen. >> our top priority is to defend this nation and to protect our interests. and today the most urgent challenge that we face is covid-19 and so the department has stepped up to save american lives through vaccination. >> bret: so, amy, that's clearly a

one of the arguments he is making, bob gates, is the threat has now moved to different parts of the worldda and isis. he is saying they are in places like yemen and syria. was this the right decision? robert: it was a very tough decision. i think i probably would have recommended keeping a small u.s. force there. but the reality that the president was facing is that even with our forces there, every day the taliban is taking over more and more of the countryside and making greater and greater progress against the government of afghanistan. so even if we kept troops there, that is no assurance that the current trend would not continue. i think of all the possible endings in afghanistan at this point, the least likely is a happy ending. i would say the one thing that is important, and critically important is that we continue our economic and military assistance to the government of afghanistan even after our troops are gone. the government the soviets installed in kabul survived for three years after the soviets pulled all their troops out in 1988. because of the flow of economic and milita

he didn't go through the process that former defense secretary's like bob gates go therapy at officialsining materials mention the 1619 project or whites being evil. those are defense videos that are publicly available. the space commandery relieved him of command last friday. over what he called the lost of trust and confidence in his ability to lead. the three publicly available defense department video were reviewed by fox news this morning and make no mention of the 1619 project or whites being evil. those weren't dod videos which raises a question about who's videos are these and who reviewed them question mikey west the commanding officer. you think he could tell it to review and what not to. >> sandra: we will see what moore comes from this. thank you for reporting. lucas tomlinson at the pentagon. john? >> john: from the space force to what looks like evil science fiction. growing concerns of her energy based attacks on u.s. soil. this after a report of someone experiencing symptoms near the white house like those that were spotted at the u.s. embassy in cuba. u.s. officials and

he didn't go through the process former defense secretaries bob gates went through. him mention the 1619 project or anything about whites being evil. the videos were publicly available online. the head of station operations command relieved lieutenant colonel low mire ahead of space command last friday over what he called a lot of trust and confidence in his ability to lead. space force spokesman telling this was made by public comments by lieutenant colonel in a recent podcast. station operations come manned initiated a command directed investigation whether these comments constituted a prohibited partisan political activity due to the on going investigation it would be inappropriate to comment further. three of those publicly available videos have been reviewed by fox news, so far no mention of any 1619 project or anything about whites being evil. we reached out to lieutenant colonel for prove about these videos. jackie: lucas, great to see you. tesla is taking a hit and dragging elon musk's fortune down with it. we have those details coming up. ♪ our retirement pl

i've got bob gates on my show tonight. i'm sure i'm going to ask him something about this as well.ting year ever but it is different than what we've seen in the past. that is definitely true, stuart. stuart: i think we better leave it right there, bret. get on to something that is very serious, that is facebook. their advisory board has up he would the ban on former president trump. it goes all the way through until november of this year. so the ban is extended way out there. what do you read into that? >> well, i think that they, the independent board said that facebook couldn't make the indefinite suspension. so they will re-evaluate it in six months. either way, it opens the door on capitol hill, stuart, to a lot of concern especially from republicans about censorship and these companies, what they're allowed to or not allowed to do, who they are allowed to keep on and not keep on and this is a former president of the united states. so i think that this will open a lot of doors to a lot of hearings yet to come on this issue. stuart: i think, many republicans, josh hawley in part

. >> well, and that was the point that bob gates brought up on the show that one election is not going to fix trumpism and what has happened to this country and that our place around the world is going to be viewed on how we handle things moving forward, do we slip back. latest piece for new york magazine is entitled "liz cheney's liberal are missing the piece." support for democracy ought to be separated from policy outcomes. republicans should not succumb to the temptation of siding with the would be awe her to tear ran merely because he promised to advance their policy goals. he'll undermine the constitution but give us low capital gains taxes and friendly judges is not a morally defensible trade-off. democracy is the one question not subject to horse-trading. when cheney's liberal critics place her support for democracy alongside her other positions they implicitly endorse the same calculation made by her conservative opponents that the rule of law is another issue. the only way democracy survives is if both sides respect the outcome of a free and fair election as a precondition to

that's president obama's defense secretary, bob gates. there could not be a more dangerous approach for the united states. shortchanging the pentagon and making america less competitive. the first draft of the so-called jobs bill that the white house put forward would play into the same dangerous dynamic. i'm talking about the multitrillion-dollar proposal that spends less than 6%, less than 6% on roads and bridges. the plan that ivy league economists say would cost hundreds of billions of dollars more than the white house says. push american workers' wages down, and somehow manage to shrink our economy despite taxing, borrowing, and spending trillions more dollars. so, mr. president, that's not a plan to make america stronger and more competitive. it's a plan to pile up debt to leave us even weaker. it would be better news for beijing than to our own citizens. that's the bad news. the good news is that the senate can do better. this body has long tackled real infrastructure on a commonsense bipartisan basis and ended up with bills that p
