"dateline" retraced harold and toni's path with the help of joey thompson, a cl

how to assassinate people this is not normal and then all of a sudden you have trump and nikki haley and all these people coming along and saying that you know. we stand with the people of iran but one thing we have to remember is if you go back a few months when mom had been some amount of saudi arabia he said very clearly he gave the game away he said we're going to take the war inside iran woods to the effect of and i believe based on my information from friends and associates i got into homs. the reality is that many of the people who've been arrested off from. inspired groups you've got people connected to the m e k terrorist outfits and you've got these type of people who came in from the outside from places like kurdistan from afghanistan from. ston and they you they tried to instigate and they were supported by the swathes of sort of tweets that were coming out of washington and another interesting thing is a few of us we did some analysis on these twitter accounts and you find that these twitter accounts are all verified somehow they've got a little bit but they've only been

nikki haley praised the protesters.mbassador read some of the slogans the demonstrators are chanting but blocked by social media. >> we will die, but we'll take iran back. don't be afraid, don't be afraid. we're all together. in reference to the supreme leader "feel some shame, let go of the country." >> ambassador haley is calling for an emergency session of the u.n. president trump has urged the tehran regime to unblock social media. he tweeted the people of iran are finally acting against the brutal and corrupt regime. all of the money that president obama so foolishly gave them went into terrorism and into their pockets. the people have little food, big inflation and no human rights. the u.s. is watching. iran's foreign minister responded by telling the president to stop tweeting saying it's better for him to try to address the u.s. internal issues like the murder of scores killed on a daily basis as well as homelessness and hunger. you know among those killed in the iran protests, reports also include as you mentio

for now ambassador haley says the u.s. is seeking emergency council meeting in new york and a human rights council meeting in geneva to deal with the crisis. we're monitoring all the developments from berlin. how is iran responding to these comments from president trump? >> reporter: good morning, dave. it's pretty anger responses coming from the iranian government accusing the u.s. of directly meddling in iran's affairs and also trying to stoke the protests as well. in fact, if you look at nikki haley's comments there were some things that the iranians said straight after wards saying this is proof that the u.s. is trying to cheer on these protesters in iran. if you look at the iranian power structure there is usually a battle that goes on between moderates and hard liners. all sides are accusing the u.s. of meddling in their affairs. while the hard liners only accuse the u.s. the moderates are saying look, we do have some problems in this country that we need to address and we do need to listen to these protesters as wel

haley, good to talk to you again.umbers shows people want daca to remain. what's the deal for daca? >> the deal is whether democrats are going to push for it this time around. in the past few months, democrats have tried to negotiate for daca in different bills, that have been short-term funding bills. and democrats thus far have prioripr prioritized keeping a deal ep for daca. coming up january 25th is when the current deal expires. so democrats are trying to decide if they're going to push this time around for a longer term appropriations bill that would address this issue. and the leverage that they have isn is that republicans this time around haven't been able to do short-term spending bills. so the sort of bill you might be able to see here is, democrats might be open to additional border security measures. they've signaled they aren't really ready to fund a border wall which is what trump has been demanding. so that's where the contention is. >> let me ask you about the spending bill that you brought up because

you heard nikki haley talk about that. the state department also had a statement earlier today that read in part the u.s. will post messages in farsi on facebook and twitter. the state department is encouraging iranians to use vpn services to circumvent iranian government controls. the statement continues by saying the administration calls on iran to unblock social media and is asking tech companies to do all they can to ensure people there can communicate. as for possible policy shifts, make no mistake about it, the administration will certainly take a closer look at the sanctions that are currently in place. we received no word about possible changes yet, but i wouldn't doubt that that is a question the press secretary sarah sanders will get to sometime today. >> dana: indeed she will. the iran story line is percolating at the same time that president trump is criticizing leaders in pakistan and has the white house heard reaction from the capital there? >> you may remember this, the president talking about the billions,

nikki haley held a press and touch oniscuss north korea's nuclear program and the decision to withhold millions of aid to pakistan. >> happy new year. it is great to see everyone again. it is going to be a great year. what we wanted to do was talk about the fact 2017 was a very active year at the you win. we are starting off fast. i want to touch on a few topics front and center facing the world. nowhere isrst days the urgency of peace, security and freedom more tested than in iran. iranianhousands citizens are taking to the street to protest the oppression of their own government. it takes great bravery to use the power of their voice against their government especially when their government has a long history of murdering its own people who dare to speak the truth. we applaud the courage of the iranian people. of iran isent attempting to stop social media and other forms of communication . we want to help amplify the voices of the iranian people. here are some messages. all these brigades have come out to the streets. they have come out against the leader. must bel prisoners freed. i

we know nikki haley will break it real. about iran, she and the president are in concert on this. >> that is my take as well. as far as senator graham talking about the president needing to lay out a strategy, i agree with him that tweeting is not enough and that the president needs to also convey material and moral support for the iranian people. but i tell our viewers they can also put down their "new york times" with just a couple of months ago was reporting very confidently that his belligerence was driving the iranian people into the arms of the regime. now we see that's not the true. it looks like it's either revolution, massacre, or a stalemate and i think the u.s. position on this can influence those results. >> i would have to agree with that. we talked about this on the couch in the last hour, how the president reacts to this will be the beginning of the trump doctrine, how we deal with foreign countries and rogue states. >> harris: don't we already know it is put america first? >> if it is put america first, are

you never said nikki haley. you never said any name. >> i did not. >> so anyone who has brought nikki haley in this has done so through their own reading? >> yes. >> going back to the obstruction case with the president. as you hear these various scenarios being played out and you hear john dowd saying, it's not the president who's going to decide, i'm going to decide whether the president agrees to do this interview. do you think this is how this will happen? john dowd will say to the president yes, you can or no, you can't? >> i think he will. but this is donald trump. he will do what he wants to do, and it's likely he will decide i can go in there and charm these guys, i can sell them. >> michael wolff thank you for joining us again tonight. really appreciate it. >> thank you. >> coming up the, the panel is joining us. they will consider everything that's developed. some of them taking notes during michael wolff's conversation here. we'll see what they think the special prosecutor is going to react to. >>> al

ambassador to the united nations niki haley held a press new yorkat the u.n. in today saying "we must not be silent. iran are crying out for freedom." >> happy new year! great to see everyone again. happy 2018. going to be a great year. but what we wanted to do was that alk about the fact obviously 2017 was a very active year here at the u.n. and we expect a lot of activity this year as well. we're starting off fast and i on a few topics that are now front and center facing the world. in these first days of 20189, urgency of peace, security and freedom being more tested than in iran. by the thousands, iranian citizens are taking to the the ts to protest oppression of their own government. the kes great bravery for iranian people to use the power their r voice against government especially when their government has a long history of who ring its own people dare to speak the truth. so we applaud the tremendous iranian people. the government of iran is actively attempting to stop and other forms of communication that allow their citizens' voices to be heard. so w

and also the president and nikki haley are going out and saying they have to denuclearize first. he's saying, listen, that's the goal. we are not going to have talks with them if they are not willing to give up their program, but that will take time. we need a sign they are willing to go there and that's the goals of these talks. so i think there is a little bit more of a new anced view with secretary tillerson that they are going to have to show some womeningness, but it's unrealistic they'll have to give everybody up before talks can start. >> he's top diplomate in the administration. >> that's right. >> stand by part 2 of this interview coming up. i know you had the chance to ask secretary of state about the president's mental state and all of that, that's next. you know what's awesome? gig-speed internet. you know what's not awesome? when only certain people can get it. let's fix that. let's give this guy gig- really? and these kids, and these guys, him, ah. oh hello. that lady, these houses! yes, yes and yes. and don't forget about them. uh huh, sure. still yes! xfinity deli

you never said nikki haley. you never said any name. >> i did not. >> anyone who has brought nikki haley in this have done it through their own reading. >> exactly. >> going back to the obstruction case with the president, as you hear these various scenarios being played out and you hear john dowd saying it's not the president who's going to decide, i am going to decide whether the president agrees to do this interview. do you think that's how this will happen. >> he will do what he wants to do. it's likely he can decide i can go in there and charm these guys and sell them. >> thank you for joining us again tonight. appreciate it. >>> coming up, our panel is here joining us. they will consider everything that's developed in this. some of them taking notes during michael wolff's conversation right here. we'll see what they think the special prosecutor will react to there. >>> also with us congressman adam schiff. that's coming up. ♪ are you reluctant to eat in public because of your denture? try super poligrip® n

the security council now the meeting opened with nikki haley she is the representative of the united states and she voiced strong support for the iranian protesters calling them courageous talking about the usa quote standing in solidarity with the iranian protest she also went on a tirade against the iranian government the united states stands unapologetically with those in iran who seek freedom for themselves prosperity for their families and dignity for their nation we will not be quiet no dishonest attempt to call the protesters puppets of foreign powers will change that if the founding principles of this institution mean anything we will not only hear their cry we will finally answer it now immediately following the remarks from nikki haley representing the usa we then heard from the representative of france and france is a country that generally agrees with the united states in u.n. security council proceedings however if you heard what the french representative had to say he wasn't exactly agreeing with nikki haley he emphasized the importance of the nuclear agreement between

now immediately following nikki haley we heard from a representative of france now the representative of france you know france is a country that generally tends to agree with the united states at the u.n. security council however there was quite a different tone in the words of the french representative talked about how this was a matter of among iranians and that foreign meddling really wasn't the answer this is the arrange the french representative go should put you know you the president it is up to the un to the remains to pursue the path of peaceful dialogue a dialogue based on full respect for the fundamental rights and freedoms of the rain people. however worrying the events of the last few days in iran may be they do not constitute a post say a threat to international peace and security and now the french representative also made a point of saying that he thought the nuclear deal between the p five plus one countries and iran really should. main attacked now the meeting is continuing we'll be hearing from the russian representative shortly as well as other members of the secu

level meeting between an official of the trump administration and african nations ambassador nikki haley is not just the u.n. ambassador for the trumpet ministration she's a member of the cabinet she was in damage limitation mode but she did not apologize i understand that she told the african ambassador she didn't know exactly what was said in that meeting last week in washington d.c. she simply said she regretted the political drama regarding what had been said she stressed the long ties between the continent and the united states and the investment and contribution that the u.s. had made towards africa for example citing the sixty six billion dollars the u.s. has given since the year two thousand to fight hiv aids the african ambassadors thanked her for talking to them remember only a few days ago they were asking for attraction and a formal apology they said though that these comments are not only been heard by african ambassadors but also by the african people in african leaders and stressed to her that african leaders will be meeting at an african union summit in the next two weeks

for now ambassador haley says the u.s.seeking an emergency council meeting in new york and a human rights council meeting in geneva to deal with the iran crisis. nick, good morning to you. how is iran responding to these comments from the president? >> well, they have been broadly dismissive of the u.s. take on this, obviously they refer to the united states as the great satan within much of the iranian government, but you know, we're now into the seventh day, a week of protests. today really marked though by a massive uptick in pro government demonstrations, supporting moderate president and the hard line clerics that provide the sort of supreme leadership of iran. now, those protests taking off in cities around iran, but at the same time too, it doesn't appear necessarily to be a finite end to the unrest at this stage. incredibly hard to know exactly how widespread it's been in the last 24 hours. about six or seven cities where we've manage to assess the protests have continued. the same time you can't tell if that's the

nikki haley says that is nowhere near enough . we won't take any of the talk seriously if they don't do something to ban all nuclear weapons in north korea. we consider this to be a very reckless regime. we don't think we need a band-aid and we don't think we need to smile and take a picture. north korea can talk with anyone they want, but the u s is not going to recognize it or acknowledge it until they agree to ban the nuclear weapons that they have. nikki haley, they're arting it very clearly, at least the us position on those. it would mark the first formula dialogue between korea since december of 2015. when asked today, there is no final conversation about the. after more than 40 years or oncoming traffic hatch of utah is hanging it up. oron hatch also pittsburgh. today he announced he will not be running for an eighth term and will retire after his current term ends in january. hatch is the longest serving senator. he's been a senator longer than i've been alive. i'm 37. the do you was in the 800s, the very first star war m

the next thing i says haley sitting on the floor with her since she died tying her like that. all the girls said what are you doing? and that she said something to gabby and she said well at least i wasn't crazy enough to tie myself up. but haley in this group believed that i told you before, you needed a coach and you needed to believe in me and i'll close by saying this, i know how talented you are as players. i mean it when i tell you i love you with all my soul. you are an incredible force to deal with. at least give me the opportunity to be a coach and believe. i want to end by doing this, i want you to go flip over that board right there. the way were everybody can see, one year ago this is where we stood today, that is where we are. it is unbelievable the six-year plan that you are able to see today that has all black numbers today, today my request from you as our people and legislators, may request for a tax increase would be zero.

. >>> nikki haley denying rumors of an affair with the president. >> it is absolutely not true. it is highly offensive. and it's disgusting. this isn't something that just happened as a cabinet member. i saw this as a legislator, i saw this when i was governor, i see it now. people see lies for what it is. do i like it? no. is it right? no. is it going to slow me down? not at all. any time this has happened it only makes me fight harder. it only makes me work harder. and i do it for the sake of other women that are behind me. >> just wow there. we'll be back to that in a few moments. >>> we begin the hour with blockbuster news and is a denial from the president saying no, he did not call for the firing of the white house special counsel robert mueller last june. the "new york times" which broke this story last night cites four sources. if you're a conservative shaking your head, oh, it's cnn and the "new york times," fox said it, too, saying the president talked of firing mueller. mcgahn refused to, threatening to quit if he did so. >> did you try to fire robert mueller? >> fake

our state correspondent barbara rereports. >> nikki haley warned iran that the world was watching itsesponse to the anti-government protests. she used the platform of the u.n. to amplify the message of president trump, who's been tweeting support for the iranian demonstrators. >> the united states stands with those in oriental who seek freedom for themselves, prosperity for their families and dignify -- dignity for their nation. we will not be quiet. [chanting] >> this unusually robust stance on human rights by the trump station coincides withs -- with the policy to see -- what it sees as iran's maligned influence. he repeated protests that. protests were dereked from bae aboard, which miss haley denied. >> this is a long history of bullying at the u.n. but this is a preposttrowls example. the interference of a nation, in this case, the united states with the utmost respect of the protesters and with every attempt to deal with peacefully despite violent infiltrators and direct encouragement by foreign influences including by the president of the united states. >> other urged teheran t

ahead and succumb to american and israeli pressures where you mentioned in the timing between nikki haley's comments in israel possible coordination there about her comments at the u.n. she blamed the palestinians for the absence of talks for their absence rather of their talks with israel is this new pressure on palestine going to change the situation there do you think it will help palestine come to the table at all. of course not because there hasn't been a table to begin with there hasn't been any peace process to begin with the whole concept of the peace process which is an american espoused concept was that a study is needed to accept you under solutions and the status of jerusalem and the solutions for tool in order for them to be engaged by the americans now that the stimulus have missed all the american demands know the americans are changing the rules of the game entirely and they are saying the united nations is no longer reference the e.u. under solution two for two is now no longer term of reference jerusalem is no longer and that it was stable yet we would like you to come and

>> the most important thing to me is nikki haley. nikki haley herself. she was crisp, firm, clear. how often do we actually hear somebody like that. her positions on iran, firm, clear and sensible. we are going to, you know, we're going to shame the europeans into getting real about iran over this, i guarranty you. on north korea, she expressed skepticism, but measured skepticism. on pakistan, i worked with the pakistani military back in the '90s, trump is absolutely right on this i can be tough on president trump but on pakistan he is right. they're responsible for the death and mutilation of many an american in afghanistan through their support of the haqqani network, the afghan taliban. we're supposed to be very critical. i'm always glad to find fault but nikki haley gave a succinct, hard-hitting clear presentation that represented the united states of america very, very well. dagen: one thing stood out, colonel, when she was speaking about iran, president obama was silent during the 2009 protests and she said that all freedom-loving people must step up. we must not do, make the

and nikki haley were having an affair.n he told bill maher this, he jumped on it and assumed it was nikki haley. the idea that they would be spending private time together, having an affair on air force one, i don't know what to say. also nikki haley called the rumors disgusting, said she has only been on air force one one time with people around and never had that many conversations with the president about her political future. take a listen to what she told politico in johnson's podcast. >> it is absolutely not true. it is highly offensive and it's disgusting. this isn't something that's just happened as a cabinet member. i saw this as a legislator. i saw this when i was governor. i see it now. people see lies for what it is. do i like it? no. is it right? no. is it gonna slow me down? not at all. any time this has happened it only make mees fight harder. it only makes me work harder. and i do it for the sake of other women that are behind me. >> brooke, as you know, i travelled to africa with nikki haley in november, w

ambassador nikki haley called a briefing to outline u.s. priorities at the united nations in this new year and top of her list the situation in iran if they are reigning in dictatorships history is any guide we can expect more outrageous abuses in the days to come the un must speak out in the days ahead we will be calling for an emergency session both here in new york and at the human rights council in geneva we must not be silent the people of iran are crying out for freedom all freedom loving people must stand with their cause this echoing sentiments expressed by president trump earlier who said in a tweet the people of iran are finally acting against the brutal and corrupt or a new regime all of the money that president obama so foolishly gave them went into terrorism and into their pockets the people have little food big inflation and no human rights the u.s. is watching. this little evidence in the streets of tehran of the turmoil evident in some other parts of the country but there are deep concerns expressed about the rise in food pr

nikki haley obviously does. and i'm glad she attacked it. >> i like nikki haley. been a rising star and i was in south carolina at the primary when she was on stage with marco rubio. it was he, tim scott and nikki h lachlt ey and i said that's the future of the republican party until donald trump beat marco rubio in the primary and crushed my dreams. here we are today. i'm glad to see -- i was skeptical of her appointment in that position, given she had no foreign policy experience but she's actually done a fantastic job. and i'm actually glad to see her in that position. she seems to be almost inoculated from the chaos going on in this administration and i wonder is it because she's come out with different positions than the president at times which we all know doesn't go over very well. with her, he seems to have laid off of her. i wonder if it's because he knows he has to be careful with his image with women so i don't think he wants to attack her. she's doing a great job. i'm proud of her. >> dude, it is 2018. what is going on? >> first of all, the idea that t

people took haley too be nikki haley.t's all it took to give a whiff of credibility to an otherwise baseless rumor. let's go one-on-one with ileana johnson. she spoke to nikki haley for women rule. nikki haley has been tremendously successful. she was a standout governor. now she's the u.s. ambassador, and she had to deal with this. and she wanted to, didn't she? >> i think so, chris. i have to say right off the top that i agree with you. i think it's unfortunate that she had to address this. she didn't have to, but she did address this when i asked her about it. and i should say that her office was pretty open with me about the fact that they haven't fielded a lot of inquiries from journalists about this rumor, so it didn't take up. nonetheless, michael wolff did go out there, and he's got a runaway best selling book and then floated this rumor on nationally syndicated television show. and the podcast is intended to address women's issues. >> right. >> and i did want to give her the opportunity to address this rumor. i t

initiative by ambassador haley at the u.n. security council is simply another step in this direction. i mean if you compare what happened in paris the other day you know over a thousand vehicles were torched and some five hundred french youth were arrested there was hardly any mention of that in the u.s. media and you know there's such an exaggerated focus without any mention that some of these protesters in iran have resorted to violence torching public facilities attacking police stations etc in light of the fact that president rouhani has explicitly acknowledged illegitimate grievances. you know majority of protesters industries are basic economic leaves and airing their grievances publicly well iran's supreme leader here curious foreign powers are from entering the trouble do you think the op is the case. well you know it's now some seventy years since the cia operation that overthrew the democratically elected government. did in iran and we still don't know the full details so one wonders what is the nature of the clandes

ambassador nikki haley. i want to bring in cnn global affairs correspondent elise laffit and aaron david miller, cnn global affairs analyst and vp and distinguished scholar at the woodrow wilson international center. elise, she's responding to a speech from president abbas where he essentially rejected and, of course this comes on the heels of president trump's decision about the u.s. embassy moving it to jerusalem, something that will take some time, but something that was symbolically very upsetting to the palestinians. this was a speech that abbas gave where he denies a jewish connection to israel where he rejected u.s.-led peace talks. what did you make of what she said moments ago? >> well, i mean, brianna, look, there is no, you know, doubt that the u.s. is very disappointed in the leader, palestinian leader milwaukee mau mahmoud abbas and his leadership and his ability to talk to the u.s., vice president pence in the region this week, the palestinian leader refused to deal with him on the heels of tha

a caveat, i've met nikki haley.r to know she is one of the most respected women, not only in the country, but the entire world now. for someone to say something like that. listen, i don't know what people are saying but the last person you would expect is nikki haley. >> there was one article written about this. most of the types there is one article written about it, someone is trying to have that article say something to deflect from something else. >> or michael wolff is saying it to sell books. >> yes. >> and there is that. >> there is definitely that. he left it to innuendo. read my book. go to the section, you'll find what you want to find there. >> there is nothing in that section. >> he's leading people to buy more books. nikki said it right, this is a disgusting thing and called it out. >> is it president trump -- they're saying this because they're having affair wolff wrote in the book that the president had been spending a notable amount of private time with haley on air force one. haley says she's only b

one is the kind of woman that nikki haley is.he worked hard and climbed her way um and whatevp and whatever through her political career pand now she's having to address these terrible rumors based on nothing. and now like the reporter from the politico, she got this great get and she's having to spend her time asking her this question, asking nikki haley this question because it was brought up and you kind of can't ignore it. >> i want to ask you about one slightly different topic, which is the wall street journal reporting serious allegations of sexual misconduct against steve wynn and he's the finance chair of the republican national committee. you remember them push dnc to return the harvey weinstein money. they have a problem now with that same standard. >> they should follow the standard they set. he should resign and they should give back the money that he gave. i think it's really awful. this is sexual harassment, sexual assault, should not be allowed anywhere in the workplace in society period. >> and you would agree, i'

nikki haley warned iran that the world was watching its response the anti—government protests.sed the platform of the un to amplify the message of president trump, who has been tweeting support for the iranian demonstrators. the united states stands unapologetically with those in iran —— uranium people will determine their own destiny and let there be no doubt whatsoever the united states stands unapologetically with those in iran who seek freedom for themselves, prosperity for their families, and dignity for their nation. we will not be quiet. noticed honest attempt to call the protesters puppets foreign powers will change that. the iranian people know the truth. and we know the truth. all chant. this unusually robust stance on human rights for the trump administration coincides with a policy to curb what it sees as iran's malign influence in the middle east. the iranian ambassador called the meeting a farce, and repeated charges that the protests were directed from abroad, which ms haley denied. there is a long history of us bullying at the un, but this is a preposterous exam

nikki haley. why? that's because haley there was an illusion in the book to a possible relationship between haley and president trump. haley came out last week and absolutely denied that rumor and criticized michael wolff for ever implying such a thing could happen. here's what hail i didn't wrote on twitter. i've always loved this show but to have artist read the fire and fury book killed it. don't ruin great music with trash. some of us love music without the politics thrown in it. the reaction to that tweet, a lot of reactions, some people agreeing with her as saying this book, this best selling book should not get a grammy stage. on the other hand, politics, music, they've always been fused together. her comment about wanting to separate the two seemed off to me. >> she may be the only politician we saw at the grammys but politics was all over it. >> exactly. these pro-immigration, pro-immigrant messages from stars like u 2. this was anything but subtle. you had u 2 and bono out there on a barge fl
