the head of russian military intelligence agency gru, general igor korobov, has died at the age of 62016, is said to have died after "a serious and long illness" on wednesday. the gru was this year linked to a nerve agent attack in britain on ex—russian spy sergei skripal and his daughter. facebook‘s outgoing communications chief, elliot schrage, has said he alone was responsible for hiring a washington—based pr firm to target the compa ny‘s critics. last week the new york times said facebook was using the firm, definers, to spread disparaging information. one of those targeted was the billionaire philanthropist, george soros, after he described the social media network as a menace to society. the american space agency says its latest mars probe, called insight, is on track for touchdown on monday. only a third of previous international missions have succeeded. nasa is expressing confidence that insight — with a heat—resistant capsule, parachute, and rockets — will touch down safely. saudi arabia's foreign minister has told the bbc that criticising the leadership of the kingdom is "a

i think it was the russian intelligence or gru, weaponizing the object of our affection, facebook and blowing it up interface and infecting and centrifuging our democracy using assets that we had not only build but by the object of our affection. these platforms have absolutely been weaponized by bad actors in what's become clear is that there's externalities. if these comp is a regulation regulations that were never connect the dots and make investments to make sure the safety that there won't be weaponized again rhetoric coming out of facebook is the always be bad actors which is basically saying it's going to happen again. >> host: facebook is not to be the best firm to work for. >> guest: there's different surveys but facebook, the average wage, the average wage at amazon and stuff $50,000 because again of the disproportional amount of employees they have in warehouses. one in three amazon employees in arizona is on some sort of food assistance. the average wage was held at facebook is around i believe greater than $200,000. when you 24,000 people along with their investors splitt

jerome corsi's roger stone and the connection point there is wikileaks and the connection point there is grue forensic sense to a very clear american connection point perhaps the for the first time. we have to wait and see, there have been a lot of stories that have turned out not to be true and some have. i think next week will get a lot more clarity. >> mike: chuck, what do you make of this? >> i don't know what to make of dr. jerome corsi who is kind of a flaky loose cannon on the deck of the american political scene. he's an old obama birther from way back, these comments he's making make it seem he is almost boasting as if he is going to be indicted to inflate his own importance in the situation. as tom points out, it's an extended chain of culpability if any that leaves all the way to russia. in the meantime, corsi and stone are denying that there was any foreknowledge of what julian assange had in store for them. i found it amusing to read his accounting of this conversation, they just wouldn't believe me, i don't envy robert mueller's team having to deal with this particular witness.

mueller has charged 13 gru russian military officers with hacking into the dnc server and releasing the e-mails. one of the charges is conspearanconspear anconspear -- conspiracy against the united states. so in order for someone to be basically ensnared in this conspiracy it is not enough that they just have knowledge that this is going on, they have to be in agreement with the objective which is to release this at specific times to damage this person and they have to take an action in furtherance of that conspiracy. in your example, if they just knew and were kind of keeping up on what was happening, probably not enough. if they were coordinating and saying do it now, this is when we think it will be maximized, that could then start to cross the legal line and they could be liable for the conspiracy as well. >> understood. sorry we have to jump and cut it a little bit short. i want to get over to house speaker paul ryan right now answering questions on border wall funding all tied with possible government shutdown. >> the house has the -- the house is there. we have never been the iss

around the time of these wikileaks dumps of the stolen e-mails from the russian military intelligence grue says he never talked to then-candidate about it. okay. >> although go back to that quote, though, for a second that you were reading, don. >> let's put it back up. >> it's a really fascinating quote where he says -- where you have him saying, well, i never discussed it with him, you know, unless they happen to have tapes of us discussing it. >> yeah, last part. stone said that he never discussed wikileaks with trump and diminished the importance of any phone records, saying unless mueller has tape recordings of the phone calls, what would that prove? that's the quote you're talking about. >> and i'll bet asha really didn't take that as innocence from suspects she was interviewing. >> i'd call that a deceptive statement. >> jack, let's talk about rudy giuliani confirmed to "the daily beast" that there is a joint defense agreement between donald trump -- or president trump and jerome corsi. how surprising is it that the president has this agreement with a conspiracy theorist? this was

well, he is the american who, in that gru indictment, they refer to an american who was in communicationith wikileaks. so we know roger stone was tweeting with wikileaks. we don't know if he actually got advance knowledge. john podesta's e-mails are coming. stone's defense is, hey, julian assange went on television in june 2016 and told the world he had damaging e-mails, e-mails that would damage hillary clinton. >> and i just guessed right. also the jerome corsi line, correct? >> he looked at the july dump of dnc e-mails, noticed there were very few podesta e-mails, and he figured out that's got to be the october surprise. >> well, dr. corsi, author of 20 books, don't put much past him. >>> i'm joined by mimi rocah, former federal prosecutor in new york, elliott williams, worked in the justice department in the obama administration. start with you, mimi, the speculation swirling around about the mueller team whirring back to life. there was a period they were quiet because of the election, there's the corsi stuff. what -- i guess sort of procedural question is like, when would they choo

have a summit meeting with vladimir putin, we learned of these charges against russian spies from the gru with the military intelligence service. so rudy giuliani is calling attention to the fact that it appears, he believes, that robert mueller is trying to sabotage the president and his conduct of international relations. >> evan, thank you. with me now cnn chief political analyst gloria borger. gloria, how does giuliani's response square with what cohen told the court, especially after the president today called cohen a liar. >> rudy giuliani is on team trump. as evan was saying all throughout the the campaign, focused on trying to win iowa, saying to everybody i've never done any business deals with moscow, except maybe selling a piece of property in palm beach to a wealthy russian, and i did the miss universe pageant and that was it. in the meantime this was continuing. and michael cohen and the president at that time were on the same page. fast forward to today, they are no longer on the same page and michael cohen is saying, look, i'm telling you the truth here, it didn't end in ja

>> i would say we sanctioned scores of gru agents to try to punish vladimir putin for what he's done against our country. we know that his election interference hasn't stopped. sanctioning 17 of mohammed bin salman's henchmen is not going to deter him from further crimes. he feels emboldened, he does not feel deterred. >> thanks very much. >>> as we know, it's the day after thanksgiving. you know what that means. black friday. it appears to have descended on the winter white house in florida. for the second straight day, a stewing president trump appears to have shifted the holiday to festivus complete with the airing of grievances. today, he's lamenting the lack of bipartisan cooperation in congress. while railing against the court that ruled against his immigration policy. the president's tweet, our highly trained security professionals are not allowed to do their job on the border because of the judicial activism and interference by the ninth circuit. nevertheless, they're working hard to make america a safer place, though hard to do when anybody filing a lawsuit wins. i want to c

>> if you read the mueller indictment of the gru hackers, he is also a conduit of a foreign intelligencedescribed as a hostile intelligence operation. so he's in a very complicated position. it would cause you as a prosecutor to want to be very careful how you charged him to make sure you weren't doing it in a way that could implicate or cause problems down the road for legitimate journalists. >> virginia, you get the last ten seconds to weigh in on that. do you think he has legs to stand on? >> publishing has changed. let's remember that dump of e-mails came 30 minutes after the "access hollywood" tape. it was clearly to influence the election. >> i'm sure we'll be having this conversation in the months ahead. >>> we'll be right back. >>> we'll be right back. for rea? yep. we match all the cash back new cardmembers earn at the end of their first year, automatically. whoo! i got my money! hard to contain yourself, isn't it? uh huh! let it go! whoo! get a dollar-for-dollar match at the end of your first year. only from discover. the medicare enrollment deadline is only days away. choosing

to do this business deal while the kremlin was orchestrating a military intelligence attack by the grution to help trump win. >> you hear that description? >> yes. >> let's assume for the sake of argument that it all proves to be legal. what are the national security implications in your view? >> well, first of all i'm the wrong guy to ask because i believe that treason is illegal. and to me this is treason. i know -- ari, short of nuclear war, general war, i can't imagine a more serious national security threat than a u.s. president who is compromised or a candidate for the presidency compromised by the most hostile foreign power we face. now, all of that said if there's ever a film made about the trump administration, it's got to be done by the -- brothers because this is going into the realm of the absurd. today was the first time i laughed out loud this whole mess when i found that the trump gang trying to work this deal in moskow through a russian spy general named -- but on a saner side of things, this is how you do things in russia and they were clearly trying every track. and i

. >> the e-mails were stolen by the russian military intelligence unit, the gru, according to the u.s. government. the news comes, congressman, just one day after the special counsel, robert mueller, terminated paul manafort's plea deal alleging he repeatedly lied during what was supposed to be his cooperation. why would manafort lie to the special counsel and the fbi after already pleading guilty? >> hard to know, except that it is a very dangerous move by mr. manafort. his plea agreement requires him to be truthful and fully disclose everything he knows in response to the special counsel's inquiry. he is now on the hook for not only the charges he pled to, but other charges that have yet to be filed. all bets are off in terms of leniency. the only thing he can be hoping for is a pardon from the president. the only way you would risk spending the rest of your life in jail in an effort to lie about what happened and protect the president is some expectations that the president is going to take care of you. we don't know that, but there's really no other explanation for this decision b

and the theory is that the gru, russian intelligence, the 12 that were indicted by the mueller probe, they were indicted for hacking the democrats' e-mails and passing them to assange. so that's why wikileaks becomes representative of factual information here because they wound up doing the distributing. assange has said he didn't get it from them, the u.s. government disagrees. we have reporting now that there has been a secret criminal charge filed against julian assange, why and for what, we don't know yet. but this is going to be become relevant again in a second. there's another part of the intrigue that came out today we have to go through. the closest person to the president that we have heard caught up in all of this so far is roger stone. all right? how? because he seemed to be pressient on what was going to come out. y you've seen me test him about this on this show. he denies it. he says he never did. then there was a second wave of the story, which is, well, i was guessing from what was going on, and who was called person number two in the draft legal filings that cnn has

the fox had been weaponized by the gru, the intelligence arm of the russian government, i don't believe -- and it ended up that these ads were paid for in rubles. that they had put in place absolutely no safeguards whatsoever. >> yes, remember, rubles. there were ads being paid for in rubles on facebook. >> potentially contaminated our elections. i believe rupert murdoch would not travel to the u.s. for the fear that he would be arrested on de-planing. there is a double standard here. can you imagine what would happen to you, stephanie, if it ended up the ads in between our breaks, we found out had been paid for by a foreign government trying to influence our election? >> scott, when i worked in bank welcome if someone from a -- from another country -- from a foreign entity picked up the phone and said, yep, here's a deal i want to do and i'm going to pay you in a foreign currency, there are "know your client" rules and regulations that facebook has been allowed to skirt because they've been celebrityized. think about the last administration? what group of ceos were welcomed and adored

applause in response to the activities of the gru in europe, through the cooperation of western securityternational unity and a collective response to these threats. we have shown that while the challenge is real, so is the collective resolve of like—minded partners to defend our values, our democracies, and of like—minded partners to defend ourvalues, our democracies, and our people. but as i also said a year ago, this is not the relationship with russia we want. we remain open toa with russia we want. we remain open to a different relationship, one where russia desists from these attacks that undermine international treaties and international security, and its actions that undermine the territorial integrity of its neighbours, and instead acts together with us to fulfil the common responsibilities we share as permanent members of the united nations security council. and we hope that the russian state chooses to take this path. if it does, we will respond in kind. we will continue to show our willingness to act as a community of nations, to stand up for the rules around the world. when

as opposed to some gru agent who's sitting in moscow who says, yes, i can hack into georgia fairly easily. look, this is a lie the republicans have been promoting for years especially under this particular administration. and it serves two purposes. first off, it's meant to intimidate people from voting. anything that you can say that makes a voting process seem sketchy or problematic is a way to get unlikely or less likely voters to not come out. but also it's to set up a narrative to intimidate and abuse potential candidates as well. because these constant comments suggest that, hey, if we see any discrepancy here, we're going to see yo sue you, going to arrest you. it's saying we're going to prosecute political enemies and political opponent. it's a disturbing trend and embraced by most members and most of trumpism. >> it's amazing no one inside says, hey, we might be vulnerable on this because we don't appear to be too worried about russian interference in 2016. we called bob mueller's investigation into that a witch hunt about three to four days a week. maybe we aren't the guys who s
