never sent to guantanamo bay. he was sent to the brigg in south carolina and made it into the civilian court system and know behind bars for 17 years. to declare him an enemy combatant would open the door to transfer him to a military prison at least for a time if not permanently. i don't know if the mechanism is there for him to go to guantanamo bay or not though. nobody who has ever been arrested on u.s. soil for committing a crime has gone to guantanamo bay. certainly sarah huckabee sanders said this is an idea that the president supports in principle. she said he's not actively advocating for it. senator lindsey graham as you pointed out raised that point earlier today. let's listen to what he said. >> he is acting as a soldier of the caliphate. we should treat him as a soldier of the caliphate. the idea that america is not part of the battlefield is insane. >> so lindsey graham is sugge suggesting if you're from a foreign country and perpetrate and act of terrorism, you qualify as an enemy combatant. this per

he said he would consider sending the suspect to guantanamo bay. that is a conversation going on between a number of different agencies. she did say that in keeping with what we heard from senators john mccain and lindsey. one other headline, she was pressed on that debate back and forth over john kelly's comments this week that there could ab a. she said the notion that anyone in this administration supports slavery she said is essentially absurd and defensive. >> kristen, great to see you. thanks so much, as always this social media. i just want to hold off for a seco second. we want to know if you got into this country with a special abilities visa or a student visa or a working visa. the protsz cess of getting a gr card is exactly the same. i just have to put it out there. as an immigrant in this country that came in on an o visa and then got transferred to the. it is nonsense to suggest that somebody who came in on a diversion veesh a. this is just intellectually dishonest. >>> rightment this is part of the ongoing investigation into russian i

and what advantages does the president see in sending this terror suspect to guantanamo bay, cuba? >> look, the point he was making is he supports or would support that but wasn't necessarily advocating for it but would certainly support it if he felt that was the best way. >> are there advantages in terms of sending any terror suspect to guantanamo? >> that's a question we would have to dive into deeper and talk with interagency process before answering that. matthew? >> thanks, sarah. the president said last night that he ordered dhs to step up quote already extreme vetting. i'm wondering if you can tell us specifically about what extreme vetting entails? and if there is any indication ta it might have had impact on preventing yesterday's attack? >> sure. some of the specifics for extreme vetting would be enhancing the collection and review of bio metric and biographical data. improving intelligence screen. and verification. improving information sharing with partner nations and foreign law enforcement. and intelligence services. and over all heightened scrutiny and thorough revi

the idea that guantanamo bay is a better a option. have to object to guantanamo bay in general to think it's just an absurd idea in this specific case. we've seen it again and again, civilian courts are well equipped, lots of cases better equipped, to have these prosecutions. so this is really a president who's speaking without any kind of expertise or facts underlying his assertions. not unusual unfortunately for this white house. >> peter berger, you studied this, when the president says you have to get rid of the lottery immigration system, when he says you need extreme vetting, do away with these programs only have merritt based, people who are talented, have money, speak english, is that going to stop terrorism? >> i don't know. the leader of the 9/11 attacks had a degree from germany. if you're an isis terrorist, the last thing you do is pose as a syrian ref fees, they get the most attention of any group. two years of extreme vetting for refuge refugees. i'm an ago nnostic about this program, i don't know about the vetting. i pr

has sort of evolved from yesterday where he said he would consider sending this individual to guantanamo bay. it's clear there would be some constitutional questions, some legal questions, because to our knowledge, no person on american soil has ever been sent to guantanamo. it's just been people from other countries. enemy combatants who don't get their miranda rights read. apparently the president has sort of changed his mind. the question, of course, whether he is tainting the jury pool by expressing his outrage is something we'll have to hear in the weeks and months ahead. john, back to you. >> joe johns at the white house thanks so much. >>> we are getting new details about the investigation itself. alexander has that. alex? >> john, we're learning a lot more about the planning that went into this how much more carnage the attacker wanted to cause. the reason that we're learning so much so quickly because the attacker has waived his miranda rights and speaking with investigators. the planning has been in the works around a year but only two months ago the attacker decided to use a truck

he's suggesting he'd send the new york suspect to guantanamo bay in cuba. playing politics with a deadly terror attack? >>> putin's propaganda. lawmakers released some of the ads russian troll farm purchased on facebook during the u.s. election campaign. what were the hot-button issues russian meddlers

meanwhile, in guantanamo bay, not one person has gone to trial.ome years ago when i first became the u.s. attorney, we were supposed to try ka leak sheikh mohammed here and that got derailed by people above my pay grade for political reasons and those people still have not been brought to justice. i don't think that's good for the rule of law ultimately. >> it's important to underscore what you're saying. we have taken this enormous public relations beating all over the world for guantanamo and what you're pointing out is nobody ever gets convicted in guantanamo. so it seems like a terrible tradeoff where we have this huge public relations disaster and yet there's no benefit. >> there's no benefit in terms of getting justice done and getting closure on a case. the last person who was tried in guantanamo bay was a guy who was responsible for the terrorist bombings in kenya and tanzania. he was brought from guantanamo bay to the courthouse in my old district and tried and convicted there. >> do you think that with the president constantly making the

president trump said that he would consider sending the suspect to guantÁnamo bay military prison. >>thank you, caroline. bringing in diana. reporter: i am on genesee avenue. this is where the tribeca terror suspect sayfullo saipov lived with his wife and children. on tuesday he killed eight people when he rented a pickup truck from home depot. he drove it into manhattan and plowed into a busy bicycle path along the hudson river. one of those killed was very trait of new jersey. the investigation turns to the suspect's home ties. >> i always told people that he comes down here in shots. reporter: on wednesday he woke up to streets blocked off by the fbi. >> they had a large box truck and also a large minivan. on top of the home depot truck. reporter: the suspect has a history of being under surveillance by the nypd. [inaudible] reporter: the nypd and the fbi are continuing the investigation president trump wants to afford a merit-based program and have people vetted. >> if we have to go back and re-examine how we got people that are coming to the united states, we should, and we shoul

guantanamo bay takes forever. fewer than 20 prosecuted. and it costs an arm and a leg. >> if i'm arguing the other side i say that's on you, the establishment, you take too long. these are the new pedophiles. we hate them. treat them terribly. put them in bad places. we all get the base of it. phil is saying facts matter. you can't say the military communals are more about invoking justice. >> it will be on my watch. i won't be like you guys. >> his promising or projecting a new future where separation of powers and all the frustration by design don't apply, that's not reality either. we have a system in this country rooted in law, rooted in history, rooted in tradition. he may play to the base but it is our job to point out that facts matter. >> i hear you. here's a fact also, guys. i get it. yes, i'm devil's advocate. it is going all around our society. i have a brown guy with a beard who is a muslim who said he wanted to kill us and he's proud of it. that's the only facts i need to treat this guy like what he is. he's a savage. that's h

denied his miranda rights, and taken to guantanamo bay. meanwhile wednesday night, new yorkers held in interfaith vigil for the victims of tuesday's attack and left flowers a memorial's at the bike path where the rampage occurred. today, we spend the hour looking atat the attack in the unfolding response to it. we begin in new york with shayana kadidal, seninior managg attorney at the center for rights.tional i want to ask about guantanamo, about president trump's comment that this man, sayfullo saipov, should be sent to guantanamo. well, he called him an animal. >> we would not be talking about this at all and the president would not be talking about it if he weren't a muslim guy with a beard. the premise of this is that somehow it is better to try somebody like this at guantanamo in a military commission at two try them at home in a ordinary criminal justice system in a regular federal court. that is just absurd on its face. we have one e of the most akonoi and criminal -- drug conan criminal systems around. .t is not fair procedurally i

will use all lawful tools at our disposal, including prosecution in article iii courts or at guantanamo bayritics say the president's death penalty comment could taint the jury pool and allow lawyers to argue their client can't get a fair trial. >>> meanwhile, a somber moment overnight as the eight people who were killed in that attack were remembered in a candlelight vigil. dozens of people marched on the bike path where the incident took place. five of those killed you see there were from argentina. this young woman, a mother of two, and the two american victims were also remembered. on a master's degree student. and barricades are going up to keep cars away from bikers and joggers. it is installing in 57 different spots along that path which runs along the hudson river. >>> abc news has learned that moments before the attack, the suspect made a phone call to a friend. law enforcement sources say that call is what triggered a search for that friend on wednesday. he, however, is not considered a suspect. >>> and the president is involved in a new twitter scandal, but it actually doesn't ha

what does the future of guantanamo bay look like under the trump administration? >> i don't have any announcements or change or adjustments to policy at this point. reporter: could you give us more of the tick tock how the president found out about the terror attack in new york city? how he immediately responded? who he got on the phone with right away? just trying to get a better understanding where he was, what he was doing and what actions he took following the news? >> the president was in the oval office when this took place and he was first briefed by general kelly shortly after it happened. one last question. reporter: thank you, sarah. >> right here. reporter: will president trump look for enhancing anti-terror measures with other foreign countries during his visit to asia, and also will president trump call the leaders of argentina and belgium to express his condolence. >> i believe arrangements are made to speak with the leaders of those countries. they're working between the two teams to set up that. in terms of looking for conversations around anti-ter

as we mentioned, president trump backing off a threat to send the suspect to guantanamo bay. for a president who has championed the use of that prison, what gives? one ally wants to know. doug mckelway reports. >> do you want the assailant sent to gitmo? >> i would certainly consider it. >> a day after the impromptu remarks, president trump was backtracking on sending sayfullo saipov to guantanamo bay, tweeting: statistically that process takes much longer than going through the federal system. there is also something appropriate about keeping him in the home of the horrible crime he committed. should move fast. death penalty!" the white house considers saipov to be an enemy combatant. >> it allows you to question him without a right to counsel. there is no right to counsel when you're being questioned by the military. >> gitmo has become a symbol on how to serve justice against enemies who wear no uniform. the obama administration tried to close it. >> if you can try timothy mcveigh in the u.s., you can try other terrorists here. it was used as a terrorist propaganda tool. w

rob: yeah, guantanamo bay.y need to understanding this ignorance will not be tolerated. jillian: death is too easy. what he wanted, second him to gitmo, what he won't be expecting. rob: i totally agree with that death penalty will be deterrent to these terrorists and show that u.s. is done with these attacks. jillian: bonnie on facebook says solitary confinement for life. he should not get the death penalty. that's exactly what these monsters want. keep those comments coming. in this is a conversation we are going to continue to have. rob: there is a lot of angry about this story and certainly understandable. jillian: hope you have a good day. thank you for joining us. rob: "fox & friends" starts right now. see you later. tomorrow is friday. >> authorities are revealing disturbing new details about the radical islamic attack in new york city. >> admitted to carrying out the attack saying he wanted to kill as many people as possible and was proud of what he had done. >> saipov was admitted to the u.s. under the

the story of chinese muslims enslaved in afghanistan and imprisoned in guantanamo bay. good afternoon. the. the campaign against terrorism continues. our. military objectives remain the destruction of the qaeda network. the taliban leadership. and the end of afghanistan as a place where terrorists are harbored. we have large rewards out. are you getting the word out about the word morning we have leaflets that are dropping. like snowflakes in the for your summer in chicago. chatted to the sun. pogson autumn is thought of but then i'm going to give a tourist have said live on meant we were. you know one sunday best when the little american with the new committee it was that the sub gone and i asked him i'll do the hide you have of. me just in front of the moat. pac sun you're going to mean i'm going to get a toast i suspect you get. on luck you know what to do i'm always a bit on all of those and. you have to move on the business outlook someday museums know johnny i'm going to but i don't. i'm still i'm sure busy busy long look at the polluted you saw in my office. i'm

enemy combatant, president trump said today he's open to sending him to the military prison at guantanamo bay, a move seemingly backed by some on capitol hill. >> if you act like a terrorist and you say you're a terrorist, that's enough for me. we ought to treat you as a terrorist. >> because he's an enemy combatant. he killed americans. >> reporter: mr. trump also called on congress to dismantle the diversity visa lottery program, which allowed sayfullo saipov into the united states from uzbekistan in 2010. >> diversity lottery sounds nice. it's not nice. it's not good. >> reporter: the program randomly selects applicants from countries with low immigration rates. there are some requirements like criminal background checks, but mr. trump says it isn't tough enough. >> we have to get much less politically correct. >> reporter: the president called the diversity program a chuck schumer beauty. schumer initially supported the '90s era law but in 2013 backed a bipartisan bill to scrap it. today schumer fired back. i guess it's not too soon to politicize a tragedy. >> the president ought to stop

so guantanamo bay is used for so-called foreign fighters, where as the judicial system is for americanizens. the suspect is not a citizen, but a legal resident. i would think most legal experts agree that the suspect should be tried in the court in new york. brent:carsten von nahmen on the story tonight in the u.s. capital. thank you very much. in germany, more than a month after national elections the company is still struggling t form a coalition government, and there is no sign of breakthrough. the parties are trying to hammer out an agreement on a host of issues, but negotiations are becoming contentious. the greens have accused the free democrats of "using populist platitudes." and the free democrats calling for mutual respect. correspondent: negotiators arriving for the latest round of talks. foreign and security policy is one area where the parties have different positions. the csu wants a halt to negotiations on turkey joining the eu. >> in foreign policy it is clear that we need a commitment that turkey will not be able to acquire full membership into the european union. corre

as you know those who went to cube, guantanamo bay, sat 15 be 16 years without a trial. look to see whether that becomes an issue for political debate. but in the judiciary, they will probably be tried in new york. >> we got one minute left. >> i'm sorry. >> no. don't ever apologize. let's talk about the paul manafort. that indictment, that seems to be the big fish right now that robert mueller is going after. as far as the investigation goes, is this the tip of the iceberg or the biggest one he's going to indict >> this is the biggest one so far. remember, talking about the pier mid prosecution scheme. the reality is this is the beginning. the, he's got several counties he's facing up to 20 years, and they're working on manafort right now and his colleague who were co indicted together and flip them. they want them to turn and tell everything they know they got a hands, town case at least according to the indictment we'll have to see. the most important part is the forefurnish cherry at the last page they could lose everything. >>> do you think george papdoloupos is he

i have a shocking story about a new guantanamo bay inmate though the fact the detention camp still exists is shocking enough similar to my shock upon hearing kid rock is still around. among the forty two prisoners locked up there are suspected terrorists and now an american general has things there gun outrageously out of hand no this torture facility has been out of control since i was a virgin the maximum security bungalows get mo house khalid shaikh mohammad a mastermind of the nine eleven attacks. the mastermind of the u.s.s. cole attack and the soon to be joined by john g. baker the mastermind of standing up for the rule of law a very. dangerous threat we face on par with. unfortunately general baker was not bunking with other suspected terrorists as this would have made for a really entertaining reality television series much better than real housewives of rocca the judge found the general guilty of contempt for refusing to follow his order and sentenced him to twenty one days confinement in a trailer behind the war court compound called camp justice it seems the judge had yet to di

you can think of us all by the pakistani army to the americans and we got held in guantanamo bay the number of al qaeda and taliban detainees transferred to u.s. forces in afghanistan has continued to grow for years without trial they had a paper that said they were innocent. or talked or screamed would be beaten again a quest for a better life that ended in incarceration. the one ton of no twenty two at this time on al jazeera. this is al-jazeera.

and today, he even said he would consider sending the alleged new york attacker to guantanamo bay. can he do that? >> reporter: technically, he can do it, but any move to send the alleged attacker to guantanamo bay would certainly face a constitutional challenge. no one ever arrested on american soil has been sent to gitmo, david. it's never happened. >> jon karl, live at the white house tonight. jon, thank you. >>> we turn next here to the russia investigation on capitol hill, attorneys for facebook, google and twitter facing tough questions today about the russians using their platforms to get to american voters. and tonight, facebook, once again, upping the number of people who saw that russian linked content during the election, to 150 million americans, including their instagram platform. lawmakers blasting all three companies for not doing more to stop it. and if you ever had any doubts about russian meddling, their efforts to influence americans, tonight, dan harris and what he discovered inside a nondescript building in st. peters burg. it is safe to say, they were not happ

of course president trump has said that he would consider sending twenty nine year old son to guantanamo bay no formal steps that we know of have been taken to do that but the u.s. attorney who took the charges against him and civilian court on wednesday says that it could be possible to move him should the designation be made at a future date of enemy combatants should be pot it could still be possible for him to go to. person to me thank you very much indeed. newly released documents recovered from a summer bin laden's pakistan compound show secret dealings between iran and al qaida among four hundred seventy thousand files that shed some light on the in a workings of al qaeda they also provided insight into bin laden's family life and name reports. this is the world's first glimpse of homs that bin laden as a man now in his twenty's he's the son of the former al qaeda leader osama bin laden and believed to be a potential future leader of the armed group home videos osama's journal and a list of his and his family's viewing habits or among the four hundred seventy thousand files seized dur

more general terms pointing out that both the military legal system with the detention center at guantanamo bay and the civilian judicial system are in the mix when it comes to prosecuting terrorism suspects or terrorists and so obviously one tunnel bay is used mainly for so-called foreign fighters whereas the judges of the system is for american citizens the suspect here is not a citizen but a legal resident and i think most legal experts and also jeff sessions agree that it's my impression that this suspect should be tried in a court in new york our correspondent crossed a phenomenon the story for us tonight in the u.s. capitol crossing thank you very much i mean time at the white house the u.s. president today nominated to head the u.s. federal reserve if confirmed by the senate powell would replace janet yellen as the nation's top monetary policy maker powell has generally supported the policies of his predecessor and is expected to remain cautious about raising interest rates too quickly here's some of what trump and powell had to say at the white house he's strong he's committed he's smar

problem now is that if we send them to guantanamo bay, the lindsey graham's and john mccain's of the world will sit around and play legal jeopardy with american lives rather than interrogating them, prosecuting them, and in the case of this guy, as far as i'm concerned, he gets a firing squad and that's a gentle way. >> harris: at such an interesting point because when you look at the track record of gtmo, some of the 9/11 suspects those that were thought to be in their constellation if you will, those cases have not gone forward. we have a win record here. >> he never lost. >> is never lost on u.s. soil. >> we will see what happens. i hear you, david. i think that we are obviously dealing with some really, really difficult times and maybe there is an example here. maybe there's a penalty example. i don't want to have a debate on the death penalty. we need to show that we are not going to tolerate it. >> marie: absolutely. we can do that in our justice system. yesterday on "outnumbered," judge napolitano talking about some of this said sending this guy to be 30 would be unfair, unlaw

but in terms of sending him to guantanamo bay, i can tell you that there's no serious consideration being given to that. the justice department and the new york authorities have talked about this. apparently they've agreed it's going to be a federal case. charges could be filed as early as today but probably tomorrow. but the real question whether there would be even legal authority to send him to gitmo but that doesn't seem it's going to happen. >> this might be out of your purview, why would the president throw that out there? >> he said before that perhaps terrorists should not be treated in the civilian courts. this is something that has been back and forth between republican and democratic administrations. but the fact that he's in the united states now regardless of whether he's a citizen, the fact he's here would make it much more complicated to send him to gitmo number one. and number two, not to get too technical for a moment but he would have to be declared an enemy combatant under the original congressional authorization for use of force after 9/11, which is all about al qaeda,
