cooper: no, they were put up to celebrate the confederacy. >> cooper: but, if the statues do celebrateremacy, should they be up today? >> prof. cooper: ( laughs ) well, should mount vernon be up today? should we go burn monticello down tomorrow? certainly thomas jefferson believed in white supremacy. >> cooper: you're saying this is >> prof. cooper: tt's a ry slippery slope. >> hayter: i would say the difference, the critical difference between washington and jefferson and lee, and men like lee, is that while washington and jefferson were complicated individuals-- and by our standards, thought about ideas in an entirely anachronistic way, they also baked in the constitution the components that allowed people to dismantle the slave system. they built as much as they destroyed. i cannot say the same thing for the confederacy. >> cooper: professor hayter was appointed by richmond's mayor to the commission that's going to make recommendations on what should happen on monument avenue. >> hayter: there are 75 million people in the south who are the descendants of confederate soldiers. and wh

i kissed cooper good-bye.ing him good-bye. >> reporter: 8:30 a.m. ross loads cooper into their small suv. first, a quick stop for breakfast at this chick-fil-a. here, surveillance video from that morning shows ross holding cooper while they order food. on any other day, ross would leave the restaurant and turn left at this intersection to drop cooper off at daycare. but on this hot summer day, ross drives straight at the intersection, towards his office, where he parks and, 30 seconds later, exits the car. see here as he walks across the parking lot, swipes into his building and leaves little cooper behind. more than six hours later, ross leaves work at 4:15 p.m. here he is swiping out of his building, casually crossing the parking lot. he gets in the car, seemingly unaware of his son mere inches from him in the back seat. he drives roughly a mile and a half before he pulls over and calls out frantically to onlookers. >> tell me exactly what happened. >> the guy pulled in a parking lot, and the baby's not brea

she said i hate you, brad cooper.she lived across the street. it was her party that friday at which nancy and brad fought openly, she said. >> her tone at that point was angry but also there was a tone of, you're an idiot. >> brad went home with the girls around 8:00. nancy stayed on. bitterly complaining about brad, even to strangers like donna lopez. and once in a while, said donna, nancy nervously looked across the street to her own house. >> how did you feel when you left that night? >> i was very worried, for someone who i didn't know well. i thought i met someone really, really nice and told my husband something really bad was going to happen over there. it's really bad. >> so nancy disappeared. her friends' eyes all turned to brad. after all, they knew about the conflict and jessica adam knew nancy was supposed to be at her house at 8:00 a.m. that saturday to paint. when nancy didn't show up, she called the police. >> i was very concerned. i had seen brad in my house, and he was agitated that week. related to t

>> cooper: an erupting volcano?lcanoes other than here on earth. >> cooper: how big a deal was that discovery? >> stone: well, it was a major deal, because it really told us the solar system was much more dynamic than we had imagined. each moon had a geologic history. they weren't just old objects heavily cratered. they had a geologic life. >> cooper: next to io, the moon europa, similar in size, but that's about all. that looks like nothing else does. >> stone: yeah, exactly. suddenly, we realized that-- what i call-- our terra-centric view of the solar system, was just much too constrained. i mean, nature was much more diverse than we could've imagined. >> cooper: saturn's famous rings also turned out to be more complex than imagined when the "voyagers" got close to them in 1980 and '81. the rings are mostly made of water ice. ed stone calls them "snowballs," but some of them are the size of mountains. the "voyagers" also discovered small moons inside saturn's rings. that "voyager" could send back images like thes

our cooperation not on just current short term interests we've tried to build this cooperation on facts and one fact it's unique. it is not proof and this kind of conspiracy theory this is completely nonsense i mean just like we have had certain opinions in russia regarding the best candidate in the us election but that's quite natural we say the base president would be mr trump and today this president just said we need to renew our russian american relationship of course he said the general election came in and people in russia have developed sympathies for this candidate speaking up in favor of our interests and. this is quite normal of course you would. put just takes on the person who would like to improve relations with your country. as far as the concorde company is concerned. they've taken american lawyers there's the they've been the american judges looking at its so what we need is proof and not just rumors. as far as the swells russian intelligence service employees are concerned i do not know anything about it yet. i need to get more information but the president asked me th

cyprus has cooperated with the u.s. in providing specialized training assistance to officials from neighboring countries and collaborated closely with egypt. the training revolves mostly on civilian type of expertise and customs and border controls. additionally, cyprus has provided training on the identification and containment of various chemicals, as well as better storage and handling of dangerous substances. . cyprus also explored collaborative efforts to counter violent extremism and radicalization in an attempt to attack the problem at its root. in recent years, cyprus has invested a great deal of energy and resources on education and the exposure of its communities to the historical roots of anti-semitism and racism. this is an invaluable investment, not only because it's the right thing to do, mr. speaker, but because it is the best proven way to prevent radicalization and violence. cyprus is committed to remain at the forefront of these efforts. after suffering a profound financial crisis not long ago, the pre

we've also seen the benefits of cooperation. our nations fought alongside one another in the second world war. even during the tensions of the cold war, when the world looked much different than it does today, the united states and russia were able to maintain a strong dialogue. but our relationship has never been worse than it is now. however, that changed as of about four hours ago. i really believe that. nothing would be easier politically than to refuse to meet, refuse to engage, but that would not accomplish anything. as president, i cannot make decisions on foreign policy in a futile effort to appease partisan critics or the media or democrats who want to do nothing but resist and obstruct. constructive dialogue between the united states and russia afford the opportunity to open new pathways toward peace and stability in our world. i would rather take a political risk in pursuit of peace than to risk peace in pursuit of politics. as president i will always put what is best for america and what is best for the american peop

every shoes including the bilateral relations regional cooperation international cooperation but i'm sure you're full of the international news agenda mr putin is slated to make quite. soon with mr trump and i'm sure you heard that there are a lot of speculations about the so-called grand bargain supposedly and all for that mr trump may. make to president clinton to exchange syria for ukraine is that as far as you know is that really something that may be discussed behind closed doors these two issues or two independent issue. is ukraine cheny me. there is no any connection within these two important issues. we are here to discuss a world the. relation it's russia in connection with cooperation in syria as well you're trying to raise. the support the position of the. russian federation in question the question of. ukraine now speaking about the syrian talks. the western media report about it as that as sort of a possibility that may happen but many analysts in russia suggest that this has already been implemented to some extent on the ground for example. iran's role in the operation

based on four pillars of cooperation, economic and trade, specific cooperation where we need to have an agreement with uk, internal security and external security and defense was the key point of my short speech at the beginning. the second pillar just for you to understand, the uk leaving the eu in a few months mechanically automatically to leave at the same time the day after 750 international agreements we have signed in the name of the eu. 750. including what we call the single sky. just an example to show you what means this second pillar. the single sky is a common organization for the european countries to organize the use of the sky, for a plane to land, a plane to take off, the conditions for the pilots, the certification and so on. so we manage all the sky together. uk is leaving, it is their decision, so we have practically -- we must have an agreement with uk just for the british airlines planes to be authorized to land and to take off and on their side they will have to negotiate with each and every said country including the united states such an agreement for their own

very close cooperation the russia or foreign minister. is in close contact you still know rove and recently they had this meeting in vienna and they were very corporate. and all sure the european countries are trying to remain. the we've worked. the you should compensate worked. we have loss after the need to know all. of the united states illegally from diesel mean i'm sure you follow the latest results of the nato summit in brussels and it's shocked many russians i have to tell you by the way mr trump treated his american partners do you think this if he continues on that path relating to the europeans in that way do you think it would be easier for iran to get what if iran wants from the europeans because you said before in previous interviews that there is no unity on the iranian question but in europe. you know. cooperation in europe in in that's for a war he is quite. understandable is continue but what they're doing in nato he's nuts. but you know what you wish to have in the european countries of course use they want to destroy th

after he decides to cooperate, he'll have to enter into what's known as a witness cooperation agreement. that's the kind of agreement that would require him to tell the truth. but it also bolsters his testimony because it indicates that the fbi has checked out what it is that he says. and found it to be so. and this goes into evidence during his trial, and it's very harmful to the defense. but if the defendant is convicted, and there happens to be a lie told by the government witnesses, sort of winked away and not pursued. but i want to assure you -- >> jay, i understand that. i have one final question for you. i take your point and our viewers take your point in fairness, and you, of course, have been loyal to donald trump. it's possible there could be a scenario where people are being induced to cooperate and they may provide material that's harmful to donald trump, but may not ultimately be 100% accurate. you have the right to make that point. let me close by asking you, is there anything else you think donald trump can do to limit his exposure here, vis-a-vis -- has that train left

we favor the continued cooperation in counterterrorism and maintain cyber security. and i'd like to point out specifically that our special services are cooperating quite successfully together. the most recent example is their operational cooperation within the recently concluded world football cup. in general the contacts among the special services should be put to a system wide basis. should be brought to systemic framework. i recall i reminded president trump about the suggestion to reestablish the working group on anti-terrorism. and also the crisis is not always that our postures dove tail exactly and yet the overlapping and mutual interest bond, we have to look for points of contact and interact closer in a variety of international forum. clo clearly we mention the regional crisis, for instance syria. as far as syria is concerned, the task of establishing peace and reconciliation in this country could be the first showcase example of this successful joint work. russia and the united states apparently can take assumed leadership on this issue, and organize the i

that would be the biggest hurdle for cooperators, people want to cooperate all the time but they don't have information that's useful. now we know based on this, as we've all speculated, but now we know, he does have information that will be useful to the government. i'm sure this is just the tip of the iceberg. >> mimi rocah, thanks so much. matt apuzzo, danny cevallos, kristen welker, thank you so much for breaking in on all of this breaking news. we'll be right back with more from the aspen security forum on our groundbreaking interview with dan coats and the fallout from that. stay tuned. know what? no, what? i just switched to geico... ...and got more. more? got a company i can trust. that's a heck of a lot more. over 75 years of great savings and service. you can't argue with more. why would ya? geico expect great savings and a whole lot more. i've been making blades here at gillette for 20 years. there's a lot of innovation that goes into making america's #1 shave. precision machinery and high-quality materials from around the world. nobody else even comes close. now starting at

and start cooperating.o the confluence of all those factors of a window opening where he perhaps feels more comfortable that he could turn this around with a new lawyer who perhaps is less averse to him talking to the media. and the sense that his reputation may be further damaged in a couple of weeks, that is why we saw him go on the record. >> is he expecting to be charged? >> i don't think anyone in his position thinks he would be surprised if charges came down. i don't think there is any special knowledge of charges. >> doesn't it hurt his leverage? with prosecutors if he has to -- if he is going to try to cut himself a deal, he will cooperate with you if you are lenient with me. i will tell you what i know. it will cost me lots of things. but if you'll treat me better because i'm going to tell you what i know, let's work out a deal. he would seem to be hurting his own leverage in those discussions by talking what he knows in a public environment. >> now, if read the interview closely, there are two thi

we've also seen the benefits of cooperation. in the last century our nations far alongside one another in the second world war. even during the tensions of the curled -- the cold war, when the world look different than it does today, the united states and russia were able to maintain a strong dialogue. but our relationship has never been worse than it is now. however, that changed as of nothingur hours ago would be easier politically than to refuse to meet, to refuse to engage, but that would not accomplish anything. as president i cannot make decisions on foreign policy in a futile effort to appease partisan critics or the media, or democrats who want to do nothing but resist and obstruct. betweentive dialogue the united states and russia for the opportunity to open new pathways toward peace and stability in our world i would rather take a political risk in pursuit of peace than to risk peace in pursuit of politics. as president i will always put what is best for america and what is best for the american people. i dressed with

if they have the strategic decision already made to do that, if they are cooperative, if they cooperate, if there is full disklesch of all of their chemical and biological nuclear programs and ballistic missile sites. we didn't get any of those things in the first series of discussions in singapore. >> no we got none of that. you can almost imagine what bolton is doing here is almost setting the process up for failure. he is setting this timeline which under the most ideal circumstances, which are very hard to imagine and run against the evidence like you just cited which is the lack of additional declaration and the fact that there seems to have been no follow-on progress to the initial summit, maybe this could physically happen in a year. it seems almost impossible that it actually will. and we all know that john bolton came to this white house as an intense skeptic of the possibility that north korea would surrender its nuclear weapons. he advocated, he argued for legality of an american first strike against north korea. he has said that north korea should cease to guest as a state.

is he cooperating? is he signaling he's about to cooperate?sting why he decided to do the interview in the first place. not something a lawyer would typically suggest you do. he's trying to send a message. if you listen to the interview, he's at least contemplating cooperating. at the end of the day what's most important is not what he says but what he does. the most significant revelation is that he's going to be terminating this joint defense agreement. that's information sharing agreement with trump's lawyers. that's a prerequisite to cooperating and the final sign that michael cohen was about to cooperate. >> this is from a guy who once said he's ready to take a bullet for president trump. apparently not a steep indictment. let's listen to what michael cohen has said in the past. oh, we don't have the sound. obviously, we've played that sound before. you see sound bite after sound bite of michael cohen heaping praise. what do you make of this change in tune in michael cohen? >> the incentive structure has clearly changed. he went from a pl

our military cooperate quite successfully together. they do get along and i hope they will be able to do so in future we will keep working, russia, turkey, iran, which i informed president trump about, but we do stand ready to link these efforts to so-called small group of states so that the process would be a broader one, multidimensional one, and so we will be able to maximize our fighting chance to get the ultimate success on the issue of syria, and speaking about having the ball in our court in syria, president trump has just mentioned that we have successfully concluded the world football cup speaking of the football actually, mr. president, i will give this ball to you. now the ball is in your court. all the more the united states will host the world cup in 2026. >> that's right. thank you very much. we do host it. and we hope we do as good a job. that's very nice that will go to my son baron melania, here you go >> final question from the united states will go to jonathan lemire from the ap. >> thank you question for each presid

it remains unclear if he will eventually cooperate with mueller. one already cooperating is michael flynn. flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the fbi last december. new questions about the russian ties to paul manafort who remains in prison after being indicted on tampering charges. trump used almost the exact same language talking about all three men all of whom potentially have the ability to create big legal problems for their former boss. >> i've always liked michael. i haven't spoken to him in a long time. >> is he your lawyer? >> not my lawyer. >> but i've always liked michael. and he is a good person. i don't think it is right that they burst into his office on a weekend. i've never heard of that before. i feel badly for general flynn. he lost his friends, he lost his life. maybe he didn't lie. i think a lot of it is unfair. i look at some of them where they go back 12 years. manafort has nothing to do with our campaign. but i feel badly about it. they went back 12 years. paul manafort worked for me for a short period of time. for 49 days or s

cooperation between our two countries has the potential to save hundreds of thousands of lives i also made clear that the united states will not allow iran to benefit from our successful campaign against isis we have just about eradicated isis. in the area we also agreed that representatives from our national security council's will need to follow up on all of the issues we address today and to continue the progress we have started right here in helsinki. today's meeting is only the beginning of a longer process but we have taken the first steps toward a brighter future and one with a strong dialogue. and a lot of thought our expectations are grounded in realism but our hopes are grounded in americans desire for friendship cooperation and peace and i think i can speak on behalf of russia when i say that also. president putin i want to thank you again for joining me for these important discussions and for advancing open dialogue between russia and the united states our meeting carries on a long tradition of diplomacy between russia the united states for the greater good of all and this

there cooperation with russian partners accounts for tens of thousands of jobs.ing to express the edges of the allies in europe and in the middle east. for example, i'm referring to israel. we also talked about the golan heights when we talk about syria, and it seems like they're not interested in the picture also willing to sacrifice the issues of their own security. i'd like to point out to you that in 2021 the new s.t.a.r.t. treaty will expire. we can live without this treaty. just a few years ago we could have lived without this treaty that we did the right thing and signed the treaty. we need to start working today to prolong to extend this treaty, otherwise in a year and half it will just run out course and there will be no more treaty any longer. when i talk about these forces in the united states, you know, this is not in line with our political philosophy because we've always been taught that people who work for the state in the interest of their nation should first and foremost think about the fundamental principle principles, fundamental values of thei

>> sounds like he is cooperating.ow he has a personal business, maybe the stormy daniels payment. all of this fuss a few weeks ago that he was somehow reimbursed. i don't think anyone on the planet thought he paid that out of the goodness of his heart. so bottom line sounds like he is coot rating. it would be interesting to know what crime he will plead to. >> yeah, we don't know that he is cooperating, just sounds like he is open to possibly being helpful to prosecutors. thank you, charlie, for your perspective. >> we know he seems to be coop rative. plus, the democratic message. some want to abolish ice. is that a winning message for the midterms? we'll ask a key democratic senator, next. who doesn't love a deal? i do. check out the new united explorer card. saving on this! saving on this! saving in here. rewarded! learn more at theexplorercard.com looking for a hotel that fits... whoooo. ...your budget? tripadvisor now searches over... ...200 sites to find you the... ...hotel you want at the lowest price. grazi, gi

he doesn't have to go on tv to say he will cooperate. the lawyer he's talking about is the chief of the division that can pick up the phone. i don't think he's talking about his own guilt or pointing to anyone else. everybody is thinking this but i don't think it's there. >> what do you say is behind it? a publicity stunt he is trying to defend his reputation, as he said in that interview or trying to send a signal to the white house, hey, i am somewhat available to cooperate with the government, if i so choose. >> do you believe he's the mob-style guy we heard about for ages or shouting and everything else, or is this puppy dog fellow that now loves his country and all this, will do this. i thought it was a grooming thing. i thought this guy was talking only to one person and that guy occupies the west wing and apparently has nothing else to do but watch the people that testify against him. >> what do you make when i piece together the timeline of events, feds getting access to a lot of new documents. perhaps, in addition to all the dev

don't do that without russian cooperation. and then this last category, it's important for students here to remember the non-events in history. they get written out pretty easily. but for me, the scariest day by far working at the security council was in the spring of 2010. the was overthrown in kyrgyzstan, 100 people died, 300 ,000 ethnic uzbeks fled, and you may not think that's a big deal. but in the end the air base -- we changed the name to make it more accommodating for the russians back in 2009, called it a transit center with a lot of airplanes there -- [laughter] over 95% of our troops went through there on hair way to afghanistan. -- on their way to afghanistan. this was scary. this time it didn't end in acrimony between our two countries, because medvedev and obama got on the phone and said both of our countries don't have an interest in this thing blowing up, let's work to resolve it. and you never read about this horrible, genocidal war because we helped to diffuse it. all right. i just like to remind people that

cooperation between our two countries has the potential to save. hundreds of thousands of lives i also made clear that the united states will not allow iran to benefit from our successful campaign against isis we have just about eradicated isis. so a terrorist summit improves the chances of great soko russian. well whether cooperation will be improved depends on what goal you're looking at those snippets that president trump was talking about in syria we have no idea what the plan would be for the u.s. and russia to cooperate i mean the only outcome the rest of the world would support in syria is that there's peace that that russia stops supporting syrian president assad and his bombing campaigns against his own people so i don't think that's what president trump had in mind when he talked about cooperation i spoke with a finnish analyst about this summit and. he said that the goals of the two leaders unfortunately have convened in that the u.s. and that the u.s. and russia are both interested in destabilizing the european union and nato we we've l

cooperation between our two countries has the potential to save. hundreds of thousands of lives i also made clear that the united states will not allow iran to benefit from a successful campaign against isis we have just about eradicated isis. originals in helsinki how's this summit to improve the chances of greater cooperation. well that's a pan's on what the goal is what many people here are worrying is that presidents trump and putin have exactly the same goal and that is to destabilize multilateral organizations the w t o nato the european union president trump has of course lashed out at all of these organizations just last week in brussels. complaining ticket to chancellor merkel about german defense spending saying all the european allies are free riders in fact forcing a closed door meeting of nato allies due to his apparent threat to go it alone if they didn't up their spending so all of those moves are definitely making president putin much more happy in his goal of destabilizing nato destabilizing the european union and president trump s
