>>> my guest today, condoleezza rice, really needs no introduction. but let me remind you, she was born in alabama, which was still under segregation at the time. grew up to be a scholar of the soviet union, teaching at stanford university. she served on george h.w. bush's national security council and then as the younger president bush's first national security adviser and his second secretary of state. since leaving office, she's returned to stanford, and she's also a founding partner at the consulting firm ride, hadley, gates. she's now a filmmaker. she hosts "american creed," a documentary. the film premiered on pbs on tuesday. welcome. >> thank you, fareed. >> first, tell me why you did the film. it feels as though this is somewhat outside of your foreign policy. obviously you were motivated to do this because of something you see in the country. >> that's right. in fact, we began this project -- david kennedy, the pulitzer prize winning historian of america -- and i began this story some five years ago. we were already seeing we're a country div

call 1-800-501-6000. >>> and we are back here on "gps" with condoleezza rice.most famous statement i would say that president bush made about foreign policy was his second inaugural. this clarion call to spread democracy around the world. it almost sounded like the truman doctrine, and it was the united states is going to support all these efforts everywhere. many people saw you as being a guiding hand behind it. the trump administration seems to have premised its foreign policy on exactly the opposite view. it's a fool's errand, we should never have been involved in it, we should be much more self-interested in a narrow way. do you think the country has rejected that view? >> well, i do know that people see it as hard to support democracy. i don't much like the term democracy promotion. it suggests somehow that we're promoting something people don't want. i can't believe there are people in the world who would rather live in tyranny, who would rather be the secret police knocking at the door, not able to say what they think or worship as they please. i think w

if you do strong words there from condoleezza rice.s wallace, the anchor of "fox news sunday." i think i start up every friday nothing what a week this has been. what did you make of condoleezza rice for speaking out on that? >> well, i think that everybody agrees that we would like to see the russia case put to rest, to find out if there is anything there, in terms of these accusations of occlusion, obstruction of justice. clearly, has put a cloud over president trump and his administration. i think a lot of us would love to know what the answer is. but as far as the house intelligence committee, they just seem to have completely broken down into partisanship. you have the republicans and the democrats, and i really question whether there is any credibility left there. they seem to be trying to do a bipartisan job, and of course, in the end, what is really going to matters with the special counsel is going to find or not find, and the president's lawyers saying that it is going to be over soon. they were saying that near thanksgiving.

condoleezza rice was there the entire hour. is going to be there talking about a movie about citizenship which is fantastic. and meg began mccain also did a fantastic job challenging adam schiff. essentially, what have you found as it relates to collusion he? said there are some things, what have you found as it relates to collusion? he is unable to answer that question. he has had hundreds of appearances talking about what he is working on and how disturbed he is. steve: meanwhile, i don't know if you realize this but on wednesday, mike huckabee, former governor of arkansas was appointed to the board of the country music association's board of directors. and then after he got the appointment, there were a number of country music executives and agents and whatnot who started to talk about how much they really don't like mike huckabee, in particular they don't like his stance on that additional family marriage. ainsley: they say is he too conservative for them and doesn't like everyone who listens to country music. he designed t

condoleezza rice tells cnn that tillerson is performing under trying circumstances. >> the relationship with the president is hard. it is. i think what is hard is to get up every day and not know what the president said at 3:00 in the morning. that would be exceedingly difficult. i think rex tillerson in an unusual administration with an unusual president who has never been in government before is doing a good job on diplomacy and putting his head down and going about the work. >> she singled out the work with fk north korea and russia. it was rice who recommended tillerson. >>> ahead, israel prime minister benjamin netanyahu heading to the white house today comes with controversy over the u.s. embassy move and netanyahu's own legal troubles. of we a we are live in jerusalem next. it's time for the 'sleep number spring clearance event'. the dual adjustability of the sleep number bed allows each of you to adjust to your ideal level of firmness, comfort and support. your sleep number setting. for your best. sleep. ever. in the morning, you'll discover the amazing effects the bed is having

bush and condoleezza rice. they thought it was a strategy and they wanted to cut the secretary of state out. how important is it going forward and i think that mike pompeo and president trump have this to show there's no daylight between the two? >> really important. pompeo has a big advantage here as the director of the c.i.a. has personally briefed the president on a regular basis. i don't think he does it every day. the daily brief is provided by pompeo. so he and trump have spent time together. if we know one thing about president trump, he fixes in on an opinion and stays on that opinion as long as the behavior continues. he and pompeo hit it off. they continue to be together and that builds a bond of trust. that will serve the new secretary well after he takes the helm at the state department. >> knowing how to brief the boss is one of the keys to success listening. brett and karl, thanks for joining us. >> dana: so the meeting between the president and kim jong-un is on the agenda. how will the latest wh

president had used the same information, congress had used the same information, secretary rumsfeld, condoleezza rices were using the same information, but i'm the one who made the biggest presentation of it, so it all sort of fell on me. that is show business, huh? david: today in hindsight, would you say the invasion was a mistake? colin: i would say the execution of the invasion was not done properly. we abandoned the army without any discussion back in washington, and then we abandoned something worse, the baath party, and said anybody who worked for the baath party could not work in the new government. those were two monstrously bad strategic decisions, and we did not have enough force in there to do what we wanted the iraq army to do, and the place fell apart. now, right now, iraq has a democracy. it is tricky, but it is a democracy. they have elections, and they are trying to restore order in their country. if they do all that, i think it is bad that we went about it in such a terrible way, in my humble judgment -- others will not agree with me -- that if they come out through this difficult p

i echo what condoleezza rice said at the end of "the view."adam schiff and said i understand you have an important job but wrap it up. if we go through this again and start reliving 2015 and 2016, it will be bad for the country not want to help the republicans. >> dana: it could help the republicans i guess. maybe it would just be good to get justice. >> greg: i disagree with everything brian kilmeade said. i think i special, second special counsel is not enough. we need a third and fourth special counsel. it should never end. it should be, people are already in their corners. this is already team sports. there is an ongoing mission going on right now. it is not to beat trump, it is to stop trump. i think the media and the democrats of realized they have to admit that president trump is doing a better job as president than they can admit or fight. it may end up, has a lot more in common with the american public's perceptions than with them. they have to stop him, not beat him. this is what they are doing. >> dana: second special counsel would

that is something that robert mueller respects, condoleezza rice also said the same thing.ves robert mueller room to do what he thinks is right. >> you are absolutely right, he plays it fair with mueller, and his reasons for leaving, he is dismayed to the bottom of his opponents by the unfairness exhibited by other people. and i think that it just rifles him and he wants out. what a shame and what a loss. >> martha: as you mention, these stories are going to keep growing and hanging around as we head into the election season. and one of them is clearly russia and the other side of it is what happened in terms of the full investigation of both sides of the electoral process in 2016? bill bennett, thank you, sir. we appreciate it. >> thank you, martha, as always. >> martha: this is a big deal even if you don't like to follow technology, mergers, all of those words might seem like something that does not matter to most people in america, but this could matter to all of us. this tech merger may have a big downside for national security. if we hand over the 5g network capability

condoleezza rice -- connell: actually i have.ast break, big roor that went up in the room, kind of the first of the night to be honest with you, that was when the latest uptake came in. it is a race within margin. the timeline of events hasn't been that surprising, we expected a close race and we expected even talking to gun folks about this earlier, conner lamb jumped out to lead because allegheney where democrats are, even president trump that dominated in 2016 didn't do so well in the county. in allegheny, margin 16 points or so for conor lamb, that's what experts say he needs, he's doing what he needs. you go to closer to border, westmoreland part. that's where the republicans are. that's where the candidates whose headquarters we are located, rick saccone where he is running up the score, he started to do that as results come in, 14-15 points or so. not as positive result as president trump had there. we didn't expect him to have. i believe president trump won by 30-plus points but still saccone is doing well there. we get i

it's why condoleezza rice, our former century of state was asked about the second amendment and she said as far as i'm concerned i'm an absolutist on that question because she remembers hiding under the bed as a child while her neighbors stood on the porch and rounded her house with shotguns and rifles and the clan marched. that was the first wave of gun control legislation. then we had automatic weapons during the component era because of the visibility with fellows with machine guns. then we had the crime bulge in the riots of the late 60s which was another wave of gun control. during that whole time, things changed. the attitudes changed because the second amendment was not only not mentioned but uncontroversial. that was up through the 60s. the nra reflected that. humphrey and john kennedy and roosevelt were all members of the nra. the nra and other gun groups, there were no lobbyist, there's no disagreement speak of, but what now become known as the cultural wars broke out in the late 60s, all of a sudden there was this, not a shift of opinion but certainly in the urban areas it was

colin powell, condoleezza rice, john kerry, they lasted for all four years. there's deep anxiety as well. it's worth mentioning. in the national security community and on the hill about the rightward turn that mike pompeo will take the state department in, in that direction. this will be a more hawkish secretary of state. someone who has argued against diplomacy with iran, for example. has been skeptical about north korea diplomacy. so it is not surprising. maybe the trump whisperer is now coming into the state department and we will really see the trump perspective as personified in mike pompeo at state. >> let's talk about north korea for a moment here. the white house saying part of the reasoning behind getting rid of the secretary of state right now is so the president can have his people in place as we get ready for these negotiations with kim jong-un. in september, you might remember, it was tillerson who admitted we were, in fact, negotiating with north korea. one day the president tweeted this, i told tillerson he's wasting his time trying to negotiat
