absolutely none of this. >> reporter: trinity officials call harman a liar and an opportunist, out to make a buck by stirring up frivolous lawsuits. he says he's out to prove a rash of accidents are tied to the guardrail changes kept secret from the government. they call you a sleazy operator. >> oh, i'm sure they do. if i'm crazy, it's irrelevant. it's killing people. that's the most important thing. what i am has no bearing whatsoever. the fact that i found it, let's address that. >> reporter: the company says the changes harman is talking about were "inadvertently omitted" when it submitted documents to the federal highway administration. but an internal company e-mail obtained by abc news shows trinity engineers actually discussed keeping the change secret. quote, "i'm feeling that we could make this change with no announcement," unquote. >> so, even that one inch change should have been reported to the federal highway administration? >> absolutely. you have to ask, why would they change it? what's the motivation for changing the one inch? >> reporter: harman says it is all about

harman. >> the roots of our party or keep in scotland. do we deliver devolution in the scottish parliament but we need to go further. will he confirm that there will be further devolution and a bill setting out new powers to be published in january? >> is the right honorable lady knows the three main party leaders have come together to agree to develop a program for change. they're right honorable member has setup a process for how that change could be delivered to a timetable. all three main parties have endorsed that timetable. and it means immediate action the day after the referendum to start the lives of its -- legislative process including proposals at the end of october with a full draft scotland bill published by the end of january. and the introduction of a bill after the general election regardless of who forms the government. that is a clear timetable and it shows the scots can have change without the irreversible separation and without such risks to jobs into their future. harman. >> for the clarity that concept as we set abou

debatese, all these will be had once the referendum is concluded. >> harriet harman. >> can i thank the right honorable member for the words that he said about our good friend and colleague, jim dobbin. he was as has been said a thoroughly decent man who stuck to his principles. at a time when it is fashionable to say politicians are in it for themselves, he was the absolute opposite. our deepest sympathies are with pat and their children. we will miss him greatly. esther speaker, historic is a much overused word in politics. ins he agree with me that just eight days time, the people of scotland will make a truly historic decision? this is their vote but i want the message from this side of the house to be heard. we want scotland to stay. >> i do agree with the right honorable lady. that is a very clear message from her side of the house. from this side of the house as well. i hope it is a message the people of scotland will hear. scottish parliamentarians have made an immense contribution for ages. we want to stay together and cannot imagine life without them. .he is a london mp i am a

we had a conversation earlier with jane harman and dan sen interestor, jane harman said there cob bootsn sen interestinteresor, if it's not our boots on the ground? >> we have to some extent some boots on the ground already. they just aren't on the front lines and whether there are other coalition partners that are willing to put boots closer to the front line is another matter. i think they have to be assured we will being them up and most of all,itative got to be assured that they've got to be assured we are in this to win this and the signals said over the past couple of years have not been good in that regard some it's going to be more difficult to put together a coalition that will actually fight than it would have been a couple years ago. >> all right. senator jeff flake. thank you so much. we look forward to hearing what happens later today. still ahead, she has her sights on climbing one of the highest money tain, it's nearly an impossible feat, the sister of our own peter sal alexander, she joins with us her incredible story. >>> up next as wall street soars, are millennials le

. >> congressman harman we appreciate your time. we just wrapped up the president's remarks from estonia a short time ago. thank you very much. again, i want to go back to jim miklaszewski right now. mik, the president heads next to wales in the u.k. where he will be joined in what some have described as the most significant nato summit not just in years but decades right now. nato is expected to endorse a rapid response force, perhaps as many as 4,000 troops as the president referred to, to go into hot spots as needed. do we have any better understanding right now of what the u.s. contribution to a force like that would be? >> well, certainly as a nato ally, if not the leader of the nato allies, the u.s. would take part in this. they have already scrambled some forces to work with other nato countries in terms of training and preparing for any possible military action, and they would, of course, provide weapons, lo air support but nobody is talking seriously about america going to war with russia over ukraine. there's no scenario t

i should point out jane harman is also the head of the wilson center here in washington.hy, paul, you studied this. the beheadings. we remember in 2002, daniel pearl, the reporter from the "wall street journal" was beheaded by al qaeda in pakistan. what's with the beheadings? why do they do this? >> it's not for religious reasons. it's pure and simple to terrorize their enemies and also to satisfy the blood loss of their supporters. we've seen this several times with daniel pearl but also with nicolas berg, an american beheaded in iraq by this same group in 2004. >> jane, you agree with dianne feinstein, the chair of the intelligence committee that maybe the president is being too cautious right now. your fellow californian? >> i think it's time for him to say more and do more. i'm sad he ducked questions on his way to the airplane. it's true there's no conclusive proof yet that sotloff was beheaded and perhaps that's why he waited. but delivering his first remarks in estonia rather than in america at a time when this corrupt is grieving about this i think perhaps was not

we are joined by jane harman now at the woodrow wilson senator, former senator joe lieberman who is heading up a new anti-terrorism group called the counter extremism project, cbs contributor mike mor mohr reall, formerly number 2 at the cia along with robert kagan of the brookings institution. welcome, well, samantha power says that other nations have agreed to participate in air strikes into syria. any guesses as to who that would be and i would take that as good news in a week when there hasn't been much, jane. >> welshes france is one. the uae is two and i think some other groups in the neighborhood would be very welcome there, but the challenge is, who would be on the ground? that is the murky piece of this, as you covered in the last segment with dianne feinsten and mike rogers, there are several groups on the ground that could harm us, and if the al nusra group or part of a corson group affiliated with the al qaeda group mixed with yemen and i know this is complicated that bowp could harm the u.s. even sooner than isil. so we have to be very careful on the ground and we need muslim b

jane harman, thank you very. as well. >>> much more of the breaking news coming up. >>> the family of a british hostage held by isis receives another new threat. we're going to ask britain's foreign secretary, he's going to be joining me here at the united nations, about effort to free him and why his country, britain, didn't take part in today's air strikes against isis in syria. hi! can i help you? i'm looking for a phone plan. it has to be a great one, and i don't compromise. ok, how about 10 gigs of data to share, unlimited talk and text, and you can choose from 2 to 10 lines. wow, sounds like a great deal. so i'm getting exactly what i want, then? appears so. now, um, i'm not too sure what to do with my arms right now 'cause this is when i usually start throwing things. oh, that's terrifying at&t's best-ever pricing. 2-10 lines, 10 gigs of truly shareable data, unlimited talk and text, starting at $130 a month. that corporate trial by fire when every slacker gets his due. and yet, there's someone around the

he and joe biden brought in sandy berg in, tom don lon, jane harman, looks like the review of our guest list here at "andrea mitchell reports". john boehner brought in dick cheney to brief house republicans. joining us is contributor and managing editor and white house correspondent for the associated press. why did the president reach out and bring in all of the different voices on foreign policy. >> it was a pretty unusual thing for the president to do. not only does he not reach out to folks like this, he criticized the washington chattering class. this was a real attempt by the president to bring the people into the fold and let them hear directly from him. hear from them. get advice a lot of these people on the list are great guests on the show. people who have been through a lot. they might have advice that he could learn from. >> there is a new "washington post" abc poll that shows a dramatic change. supporting air strikes in june and went up to 54% in august. now 71%. >> remarkable. >> it's the isis video reaction poll. >> you are right because i asked the pollster about it. his

. >> of course, the president being oversees got criticism from jane harman talking about his first remarks about this being in estonia. she says perhaps that was not the best decision. dianne feinstein has called the president too cautious on isis and adam schiff, a senior democratic on the house intelligence committee said that isis must be confronted and destroyed. is the president willing to go to war in the traditional sense, boots on the ground, american lives at risk, to destroy isis? >> the americans and the united states is not going to go it alone. no one in the american public wants us to do that. but there are a range of steps we've already started taking. the president has authorized 120 strikes in iraq. of course those have a range of purposes including providing humanitarian assistance and addressing those needs and protecting the american people who are there, but part of that impact has been on impacting isil and their growth there, but one of the main topics of discussion that the president will have, the secretary will have, secretary hagel will have will be about how the

former democratic congresswoman jane harman, director of the wood row wilson center. syndicated columnist george will. and chuck lane, charles lane from "the washington post." so, brit, what do you make of the new barack obama? do you buy the rhetoric? >> and beyond. so it's something new. the plan, it seems to me, is different in the sense it is an -- enveries a relatively maul though it is manifestly true you have to have ground force toss dislodge people from territory. they might have sufficient to roll back isis there. they would be trained, according to this plan, but it seems at a glasht pace compared to what has been the meteoric growth of isis. so i think it remains doubtful. in his news conference this week, the chairman of the joint chiefs, general martin dempsey said it would make a force of between 12 and 15,000 to fight isis on the ground in syria. s that's triple the force we would have accumulated in a year. is this a apology for defeating or containing isis? >> the debray piece is happening now by air. the defeat piece has two parts. part of it is on

we talked about this with harman, the info tanment side and mobile eye, which i've liked since its iporom inception on the driver assistance side. mobile eye finally coming down a lot of those stocks. remember as i said at the top of the show, are getting sold because people want to have money for alibaba. as you troo i to cram more neerts into a given car, you'll need more electronic to make it work. this should be a terrific business for years to come. especially with the country building 17.5 million autos. second, not only is visteon's electronics division operating in a strong area with, the brilliant acquisition of johnson controls' electronics system. they've become one of the world's three largest suppliers for cockpit electronics. visteon is real-scale and when the ought or parts business, your margins expand. what you have after the sales, after you spend all the money to get the sales. it allows you to make money and money managers like that look at the electrical business of lear, it's gained greater scale in recent years and now supports some terrific margins. what a blow-

. >> congresswoman jane harman offering some criticism of president obama for his policy towards the militant terror group isis. let's discuss with the former speaker of the house, one of the co-hosts of cnn's "cross fire," newt gingrich. newt, thank you very much for joining us. would you support an immediate decision by the president to launch air strikes against isis in syria? >> absolutely. but i would also call on the president to design a real strategy which has to recognize that isis is a lot like a virus. it's not just a nation state. the islamic state by itself is not the key. there are over 10,000 foreign potential terrorists now operating with the islamic state. there are 600 i think britains. over 100 americans. we just had two people from minneapolis killed. we don't appreciate the degree to which this is a viral epidemic spreading across the plantet pla plantet and it's very dangerous to all of us. >> does the president need congress' go ahead to effectively go to war against isis in syria? >> the president, with his commander in chief power, has the ability, as long as

joining us our chief analyst gloria borrower, our chief congressional correspondent dana bash and jane harmanber of the house intelligence committee, now the pfts of the wilson center, a think tank in washington. the president really has been forced to change his rhetoric if you will over the last several weeks, why? >> well, he's -- >> simply the video of these two americans beheaded. >> i think that was part of it but isil is expanding territory, membership, and ambition and it's a social media campaign is relentless and better than any countercampaign against it. so it's a bigger challenge. as commander in chief he has to protect our country and the circumstances are different. >> would he be doing this, gloria, if there had not been videos of two americans being executed? >> i think public opinion would not have shifted as dramatically and in this case the president's actually -- public opinion was there before the president was. the larger irony is he didn't want to be giving this speech last night. he came into office as the peace president, the president who got us out of two wars, who

and what's remarkable is that within months, nixon and harman knew.they didn't call him deep throat because that didn't come out until after. they identified him right away. and nixon said gee, what's his angle. and says well i guess he's angry that we didn't make him number one. nixon said this is a hell of a way for him to campaign it now. mark, very interesting character. great story about mark. mark felt, sooum vised a separate set of break-ins, black bag jobs. he was put on trial. and nixon was asked or subpoenaed to testify, even though he was a prosecution witness he testified in such a way that it was beneficial for felt. when the conviction was overturned or he was found innocent. nixon sent him a bottle of champagne. >> john dean. >> very complex character. really a nobody until the spring of 1973 when he begins to realize that he's in deep trouble. and that the cover-ups not going to hold together. at one point dean made a famous list of the, he drew a line and he said here's all the people who had preknowledge of the break-in. there's an e

have one client where we have a successful ceo, the world's leader in audio equipment, and sidney harmant go. >> but he ultimately made his choice and reached outside the and shows a brilliant successor. not an obvious choice for sidney, very emotional stop when you are outside looking -- >> it involves shareholders who have so much hinged on the founder itself. >> i think a lot of this is personal, particularly with a controlling stockholder and someone with de facto control. i believe you with a personal anecdote. years ago i was a founder of a partner-let investment banking --m of great variety, which paul volcker was an chairman and he took it over. but jim said to me before he , "one day you could run this place." i thought it was because i was a young guy and he was the senior guy could i realize 20 years later that that kind of thinking is really on your mind. you want the firm to survive your own mortality or humanity. >> and singleton the young talent that you are thinking about it -- >> we talk about deals and all that stuff that businesses are human enterprises and human being

reasonable statute that harmanizes the two provisions of the -- hamonizes the two provisions of the constitution that i've discussed. the war powers act makes it clear that the president can act for 60 or 90 days without the authorization of congress, but that's it. beyond those time limits, deployments require congressional authorization. now, we've heard from the president that he respects congress, likes us, consults with us and would welcome our support. but the president, i'm sure, consults with many academics and think tanks and foreign officials, not as a constitutional duty but just because it makes sense to consult with them. and the president would welcome the support of the heritage foundation or "the new york times" editorial board for his policies. saying that you welcome the support of congress or that you consult with congress has nothing to do with the legal rights of congress and the american people. now, the president has taken a very unusual legal stance. he asserts broadly last night that he has the authority to conduct the bombing campaign. but he doesn't -- but he needs con
