in hindsight, they should have. hindsight is always 20/20. >> senator, blumenthal, thank you. eric, thank you so much for joining us. you heard what he said there. let's talk more about this. senator blumenthal was adamant that a special prosecutor be named to the investigation with the russian interference in the election. how likely do you think that will happen? >> i don't think that's a likely scenario. i think democrats will probably press that as a result partly of today's hearing. but, you know, i think you have someone who was just confirmed at the deputy attorney general rosenstein after jeff sessions reaccused himself. he's seen as an independent prosecutor appointed by both republican and democratic administrations am. it's about as middle of a row as you're going to get from a political appointee. so i don't see that getting much traction to be honest. >> even though director comey was clearly animated at times, you think he did well with it. why is that? >> this was his first real opportunity to lay out, look, this is why i did what i did. you saw him in a very em

isn't hindsight a wonderful thing? it is. defeated. isn't hindsight a wonderfulthing? it is. about hindsight. going back to the earlier point, this is one of the things we teach students all the time, you don't only prepare for defence and defending systems. as i said, this seems to be a fairly easy attack into systems, but the determined attackers usually get in with more sophisticated attacks as well. you have to think of the scenario where things will go wrong. what will you do to recover your data? what will you do to bring systems back online, especially in the case of a critical service such as the nhs. this is even more important than a regular it system. thank you so much forjoining us. we're going to take you over to paris, where an official ceremony known as the transfer of power ceremony is taking place from the old prime minister, the former prime minister, bernard cazeneuve, to the new one, named today as edouard philippe. he is the new president emmanuel macron's choice as prime minister. he was thought of as being the frontrunner. what is so interesting about h

lloyd: i started having some what in hindsight were symptoms at the time.asily explained in other ways. i had a cough. summer allergies, i thought. i had pains when i exercised. i have never been this age before. i started to lose weight. but i was always trying to lose weight. i just thought i was unusually disciplined. but when i collected that stuff i went in to see a doctor. first, saw nothing because they didn't even think to test me for what i had. they prescribed allergy medicine and then a couple of weeks later, it didn't go away so i took a full cat scan. that lit up like a christmas tree. so they called me and said i had lymphoma. david: when a doctor tells you, did they say you could treat it? it is just a matter of treatment, or did he say it was life-threatening? lloyd: life-threatening, for sure. there are 70 different kinds of lymphoma. hodgkin's, non-hodgkin's, different things. each one carries its own risks. i have the more aggressive type which is dangerous. more dangerous, obviously. but it is curable. david: so you had to go in three or

hindsight is always 20-20. >>> eric, thank you for joining us. you heard what he said there. let's talk more about this. senator blumenthal was adiment that a special prosecutor be added to the investigation. >> i don't see that as a likely scenario. the democrats will probably press that partly as a result of today's hearing. but i think you have someone that was just confirmed as the deputy -- he is seen as a fairly independent prosecutor who has been apointed by republican and democratic administrations. about as middle of the road as you're going to get for a political appointee. i don't see it gaining much traction. >> you think director comey did well today, why is that? >> he made his case for history. he was not going to convince democrats that he did the right thing, but you saw him in a very emotional and animated tones. he presented himself as a man with no real options to conceal or reveal to congress the situation. he did have other options in the view of democrats, but he presented a somewhat persuasive case for the history books that this is why he did what he

hindsight is a wonderful thing. let's move on and look at the front page of the independent.om north korea, frankly. very much so. that is a rush of displaying one of their missile launchers. —— that is russia displaying. i wanted to look up this missile launcher, pretty much exactly on the same day last year they had the same parade and the headlines read zac the same, showcasing latest weaponry. —— headlines read exactly the same. they say that russia calls for world peace, then they show off their missiles. i don't expect anything different, personally. it could be argued that some of those missiles have led to some peace and stability, because liberty wants to ta ke stability, because liberty wants to take them on. lots of russians, our correspondence tell us this, they are very proud of russia's involvement in syria. they see it as a peacemaking effort, not a warmongering effort, supporting president assad to bring peace and stability to syria. the world police. that is what their government has always said. they support aside because they genuinely believe that they can

hindsight is a wonderful thing, and given especially what's happened to us in our life, if you couldo back, you would change it. one viewer was watching that and recorded her response for us on camera. i have absolutely no sympathy with the allegiances of his taliban victim, but allowing the man who breached the geneva convention and killed an injured prisoner of war to justify himself in this way is disgusting. he was provided with a platform and allowed to minimise his actions and suggest there was justification not known to the general public. thanks for all your comments this week. if you want to share your opinions on bbc news and current affairs, or even appear on the programme, you can call us. you can find us on twitter. do have a look at our website for previous discussions. bbc.co.uk/newswatch. that's all from us. we'll be back to hear your thoughts about bbc news coverage again next week. goodbye. from celebrated novelist to poet. michel faber‘s success has come with some long books, like the crimson petal and the white, and, more recently, the book of strange new things,

[laughter] a lot of toasting and bad atmosphere which is surprising because hindsight i knew how the story would turn out to the literally that prospect of what they thought would be a new dreamscape of prosperity. i did not expect to turn up any examples of that. the letters or diaries are everywhere. or the enthusiasm. >> i would say that was part of the media. for that behavior to embrace the very careful scrutinize your and he said after lincoln's election to say this is the light?. >>. >> i find it fascinating between today's politics when you use the statement of false news you think of california today and immigration issues that if the same thing could occur in the united states with the decisions of people to secede. i find that fascinating. >> i do to. so in the middle of 1860 how do they know they're on the brink of an actual shooting? i do think the fake news and a the propaganda and the partisanship and there is a sense of of longing for the past of the factories and i think mr. yoda is much better done with poetry and politics.

hindsight is a wonderful thing, and given especially what's happened to us in our life, if you could 0ne viewer was watching that and the her response for us on camera. i have absolutely no sympathy with the allegiances of his taliban victim, but allowing the man who breached the geneva convention and killed and injured prisoner of war to justify himself in this way is disgusting. he was provided with a platform and allowed to minimise his actions and suggest there was justification not known to the general public. thanks for all your comments this week. if you want to share your opinions on bbc news and current affairs, or even appear on the programme, you can call us... you can find us on twitter. do have a look at our website for previous discussions. bbc.co.uk/newswatch. that's all from us. we'll be back to hear your thoughts about bbc news coverage again next week. goodbye. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. 50, we have a political thriller on bbc news. so, we have a political thriller called miss sloan. we have alien: covenant, the latest in the ongoing alien fra

the one only funny in hindsight. so when, when i entered the united states through o'hare airport in chicago, i was traveling, i was using a canadian passport. and i had sown into a piece of luggage i had, i had this birth certificate of jack barsky. when i went to a hotel, that's where i killed off the canadian and brought to life, became jack barsky, except that killing was much harder than expected. how do you destroy a passport? not that easy. they're flame retardant. you couldn't even burn the paper, never mind the plastic outside and picture t started smelling. this doesn't work that way. you start sweating. you're making, making a stink in a hotel room. hopefully nobody will stop by ask what is going on. fire alarm didn't go off. eventually i took a pair of scissors and cut it into small pieces and flushed it down the toilet. that was not part of the curriculum, how to destroy a passport. >> the book, there are hilarious moments where i put the book down laughing. there was another one i put myself in your sho

and i could be wrong but we honestly made a decision between those two choices that even in hindsight and this is one of the world's most painful experiences, i would make the same decision. i would not conceal that. on october 28 from congress. >> was there any conflict among your staff? people saying do it. people saying don't do it. as has been reported. >> no. it was a great debate. i have a fabulous staff at all lefs and one of my junior lawyers said should you consider that what you're about to do may help elect donald trump president. and i said, thank you for raising that. not for a moment. because down that path lies the death of the fbi as an independent institution in america. i can't consider for a second who's political fortunes will be affected in what way. we have to ask ourselves, what is the right thing do and then do that thing. >> kooem made tcomey made stunnt that he lacked confidence. and loretta lynch with bill clinton on the tarmac paved the way for his unprecedented statement last july that he wasn't recommending charges. >> they could not credibly -- and that

>> hindsight is 20/20. >> the ymca corrected violations and added prodigy took responsibility for their infractions. >> i want to get it right. it was a tight window to get everything up and running. we are excited about it. >> the deputy secretary thanked us and said her department will investigate the facilities and acknowledged there needed to be changes in the rating system and they are in the works. >> did the city jump in too quickly? >> it depends on who you ask. the city said all of their pre-k facilities at this point today are in compliance. >> thank you, chad. >> students at penceburgy high school are getting ready for what they say is the best prom in america. roots, drummer and philadelphia native quest love agreed to perform tomorrow. it also didn't happen the school received a letter saying he needed to cancel, but he reconsidered saying he will do the show free of charge. >> among those receiving a degree is irvin medicalway. the 93-year-old has been taking classes at villanova for 23 years. and new york city mayor michael bloomberg gave the keynote address, commencement

as we talked -- i knew the .aguest outline i am embarrassed to say in hindsight that i would give --ould have given all the credit to the clinton administration, 97% of american audiences, so as we were talking, over drinks, a stone's throw from the theater, i realized there was an entire floor underneath, a secret i did credit,, and he, to his really did not want to talk about what he had done. he wanted to talk about israelis and palestinians secretly meeting. as a storyteller, you think, "is that really --" m jewell as well. even more so, she did not want to talk about herself. as a storyteller, you are always looking -- and always looking for stories about the gripping personal stories against the larger historical/political backdrop. to discover even they simply as scently, to-- even na realize there was secret meetings, scotch, and castles in norway, and people risking their lives, you think, "my lord, this is my wheelhouse as a playwright." >> i think one of the most important things for the woman is verylay is that she cautious. she is a diplomat. she is very much an animal o

they say hindsight is 2020. we might have to wait for hindsight. thank you so much. appreciate it. >>> so while the president is traveling abroad, the russia investigation is rocking the white house. >> there's no doubt that this cloud is impacting everything else. and i think the white house would acknowledge that. >> this as fires fbi director prepares to testify and a sheriff who backed trump's campaign is caught plaj arrizing. we'll tell you what else we've learned. life. intelligent technology can help protect it. the all-new audi q5 is here. and we thoroughly test all our nuts for superior craveability. hey richard, check out this fresh roasted flavor. looks delicious, huh? -yeah. -richard, try to control yourself. -i can't help it. -and how about that aroma? -love that aroma! umph! -craveability, approved! -oh, can i have some now?! -sure! help yourself. -wait, what? -irresistibly planters. even if you're trying your best.be a daily struggle, along with diet and exercise, once-daily toujeo® may help you control your blood sugar. get into a daily groove. ♪ let'

and i think we did the right thing, that even in hindsight i would make the same decision. >> he saiddon't know what it would take to get him really nauseous, but i want whatever is in his stomach. >> he seems to have really worked himself up about this and we talked during the break about him being this gladdaiator for justice. i think there's a wide spread perception that he acted and made somebody president. but 0e6r7on the other hand, wha laid out, what was the right thing to do, is not the test that he faces as fbi director. if your job is not to sway the election one way or the other, he has to pay attention, is something i'm going to do affect either for someone or against someone or vice versversa. >> david, you said earlier that the initial press conference was the original sin and i think that's definitely true for comey's part in this. but let's remember that the original original sin was that private server, and i'm sure that even paul would agree with this. then this ball wouldn't have started rolling. i'm not saying she did anything illegal, i don't know. >> but, you kno

but maybe now do in hindsight. >> they probably do.e a slightly different take. i think the mysogyny piece played a bigger sub text than people want to give it credit for. i think there are a lot of attitudes about how they view women in power and authority. and i don't think they view them very favorably. >> take away her name. >> i think this country has very puritanical views of women. and particularly in terms of the roles they have outside the home and the roles in business and now in politics. at the end of the day, it is now peop look at a female candidate. and i think with that study about, how people kind of perceive women when you sort of neutralize it. when you put it in the full throttle gender, it is more of an issue. >> chew on this and then i'll to go break. she is now the third straight losing democratic nominee for president to not believe they truly lost. she doesn't believe she lost fair and square. john kerry to this day does not believe he lost fair and square. and we know john gore doesn't believe he lost fair and

>> it's an amazing achievement in hindsight. there's been tension between the fact that in gallup and other polls, 7 to 10 percent of americans don't think we did it, they think it was a hoax and even setting that aside, so many americans were not alive when that happened. so it's a dim cultural memory. more receiving from you but on the other side hand it's the most stunning technical achievement humans have ever achieved. hundreds of thousands of scientists and engineers, 1000 different companies, an enormous amount of money at the time doing with computers that were so primitive, 100 times more powerful then your cell phone computer to get to the moon. it's an extraordinary achievement and yet it so long ago. >> how does nasa fit in now with all the different aspects of potential space exploration? >> nasa is still critical because it is the government space agency. they had a hard time, their budget forward during apollo and entrenched as the vietnam war was starting up and we couldn't afford to spend that much on nasa but e

.>> in hindsight, i would make the same decision. i would not conceal that. >> others questioned why the same level of publicity is not surrounding the agency still ongoing investigation into russia's meddling in the election and whether members of the trump campaign may have been colluding with the foreign government to shape the outcome. >> had there been public notice that there was renewed investigation into both campaigns i think the impact would have been different. would you agree? >> no.>> the hearing was the first of two. tomorrow comey goes before the house intelligence committee but that is close to the public.>>> after weeks of negotiating, the house has passed a bipartisan funding bill that should have avoided a shutdown. it would fund the government through september. it includes $15 billion that the white house is expected to use for the military and border security but not include funding for border wall. today's vote sends the bill to the senate where it needs to be approved before friday's deadline.>>> the white hou

>> in hindsight, for sure. paul: that's what we specialize in, mary, hindsight. >> but i understand -- paul: we did recommend it at the time. >> yes. but i'm mildly sympathetic to his point. i think what's really damaging now is when it comes out that he, when he explains that he went out to dinner with the guy and asked him am i a subject of the investigation x then decided to keep him when he found out that he was not. paul: this is the problem with trump in many respects, it's about him. [laughter] >> it is about him, but also the management of this. it's not just the timing, it's the rollout. did they learn nothing from the rollout of the travel ban? you have to get your ducks in order, you have to get everyone on the same page, paul. this is a very important decision. why not hold a press conference, give a speech to the american people? this is why we need a new fbi director. he's damaged the credibility of the institution, and he has to go, and here's why. he could have anticipated all of the responses to this and handled them in a press conference. and th

there had been a back channel for the also accords, but i embarrassed to say in hindsight am that i would i would have given all the credit to the clinton administration, 97% of american audiences, and so as we were talking over drinks a stone's throw from the theater, i realized there was an entire floor underneath the floor secret i did not know, and he, , a to his credit, really did not want to talk about what he had done. he wanted to talk about the extraordinary efforts of the israelis and palestinians to secretly meet. as a storyteller, you think, "is that really --" m jewell as well. even more so, she did not want to talk about herself. as a storyteller, you are always looking -- i am always looking for stories about the gripping personal stories against the larger historical/political backdrop. to discover even nascent me as we talked to my think it was a scotch we had, to realize there were had been secret meetings, scotch, and castles in norway, and people risking their lives, you think, "my lord, this is my wheelhouse as a playwright." charlie: jennifer, what we you trying to c

i could be wrong, but we honestly made a decision between those two choices that even in hindsight, this has been one of the world's most painful experiences, i would make the same decision. >> we're going right now to london with breaking news on prince philip. let's go to bill kneely standing by. what are you hearing? >> yes, good morning. there's been a meeting at buckingham palace this morning. just finished. all the royal staff from residences across the uk were called in. there was feverish speculation there was a health announcement. prince philip, the husband of the queen, is officially retiring. he will stop carrying out royal engagements from the autumn but he will continue for the next few months until he gives up. he is 95 years old. he'll be 96 next month. so, i suppose it's only reasonable that he should have some kind of retirement. last year, you know, he was heavily engaged in engagements. he had 110. that was even more than princes william and harry. indeed just yesterday, he was carrying out an engagement opening a stand at a cricket grand in london. and even joking th

we make judgments trying to do the right thing, and i believe even hindsight you made the right decision. >> the fbi director says he had two options, telling congress he was reopening the investigation into hillary clinton's e-mail server just days ahead of the 2016 presidential election or the catastrophic choice of staying silent. >> this is terrible. it makes me mildly nauseous to think we might have that impact on the election. honestly, it wouldn't change the decision. >> in the end, no one was happy. clinton claims the decision cost her the election. president trump tweeted that he gave her a free pass for her many bad deeds. >> i believe what i said. there was not a prosecutable case there. >> the director refuse to reveal any more details about the other major investigation from the 2016 election. trump campaign aides colluding with russian officials. >> my partner has authorized me to confirm it exists. we don't say another word until we are done. >> republicans pushed to find out who reveal the names of th >> there should be a record somewhere in our government for request unm

and i could be wrong, but we honestly made a decision between those two choices that even in hindsight -- and this was been one of the world oh maeft painful experiences, i would make the same decision. what i can promise you, i said to people, you may think we're idiots. we're honest people. we made judgments trying to do the right thing, and i believe even with hindsight we made the right decisions. >> well, just yesterday hillary clinton blamed comey's actions for her loss. >> i was on the way to winning until a combination of jim comey's letter on october 28th and russian wikileaks raised doubts in the minds of people who were inclined to vote for me but got scared off. did we make mistakes? of course we did. did i make mistakes? oh, my gosh, yes. you know, you'll read my confession and my request for absolution. but the reason why i believe we lost were the intervening events in the last ten days. >> president trump responded last night, tweeting fbi director comey was the best thing that ever happened to hillary clinton in that he gave her a free pass for many bad deeds. i don't

i could be wrong, but we honestly made a decision between those two choices that in hindsight and onemost painful experiences, i would make the decision and i would not conceal that on october 28th from the kopg. >> was there any conflict among your staff, people saying, do it? don't do it? as has bn een reported? >> no. it was a great debate. i have a fabulous staff at all levels and one of my junior lawyers said, should you consider that what you are about to do is may help elect donald trump president, and i said, thank you for raising that. not for a moment, because down that path lies the death of the fbi's independent institution in america. i can't consider for a second whose political fortunes will be affected in what way, and we have to ask ourselves what is the right thing to do and then do that thing. >> reporter: and comey made the stunning admission that he lacked confidence in the justice department's leadership after then attorney general loretta lynch met with president bill clinton on the tarmac and he said that he was not recommending charges. >> the department leade

. >> this all makes a lot of sense in hindsight. the idea we thought a relationship between james comey and donald trump was going to work is like we should have seen this coming a lot earlier. donald trump is someone who prizes loyalty. james comey is someone who prizes independents. the idea this was going to work with the backdrop of the russia investigation, in hindsight it doesn't look like it should have been a surprise to us at all. >> michael submit from the "new york times" having broken tonight's story, comey is said to have become unsettled by sbrerksz with trump. thank you for being with us tonight. >> thanks for having me. >> it helps to understand the importance of this what this adds to our understanding of what's happening and what might happen next. joining us is matt miller. mr. miller, i did not know we would be asking you back so soon but thank you for making time for us tonight appreciate it? >> of course. >> there's a lot that's of interest here especially that chael schmidt was talking about what we're coming

even with hindsight, we made the right decisions. >> fbi director comey also looking to justify that press conference back in july when he announced he would not recommend clinton face charges. >> the number of things that had gone on, some of which i can't talk about yet, that made me worry that the department leadership could not credibly complete the investigation and decline prosecution without grieveous damage to the american people's confidence in the justice system. the capper was -- i'm not picking on the attorney general loretta lynch who i like very much, but her meeting with president clinton on that airplane was the capper for me. i said, you know what, the department cannot by itself credibly end this. it was a hard call for me to make to call the attorney general that morning and say i'm about to do a press conference and i'm not going to tell you what i'm going to say. >> but then director comey said things changed. >> and having done that then having testified repeatedly under oath, we're done, this was done in the credible way. there's no there there. that when the a

and i believe even in hindsight we made the right decisions. >> reporter: the fbi director said he had two choices, telling congress he was re- opening the investigation into hillary clinton's email server just days ahead of the 2016 presidential election, or the catastrophic choice of staying silent. >> look, this is terrible! it makes me mildly nauseous to think that we might have had some impact on the election. but honestly, it wouldn't change the decision. >> reporter: in the end, no one was happy. clinton claims the decision cost her the election. president trump tweeted that comey, quote, gave her a free pass for her many bad deeds. >> i believed what i said. there was not a prosecutable case there. >> reporter: director comey refused to reveal any more details about the other major investigation from the 2016 election. trump campaign aides colluding with russian officials. >> department of justice authorized me to confirm that it exists. we are not going to say another word about it until we're done. >> reporter: republicans pushed to find out who revealed the names of trump ad

hindsight is a wonderful thing, and given especially what has happened to us in our life, if you couldyou would. if you had a time machine and could go back and do things differently, he absolutely would. blackman's conviction for murder led to protests. his wife clare led the campaign for his release. but her husband had offered her the chance to walk away from their marriage. i said, if she didn't want to stick around, or wanted to part company, at that point, or at any point throughout the process, it is something i would understand, and i would sort of wish her well for the rest of her life. you were basically offering her the chance to walk away? yes. never crossed my mind. never once. i wouldn't have done anything differently. i know sometimes people said to me, "how are you doing this? how do you keep going?" i didn't really have an answer. but it wasn't an option to do anything else. this is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. our lead story is: the liberal human rights lawyer moonjae—in has claimed victory in south korea's presidential election. mr moon has called for c

there had been a back channel for the oslo accords but i'm embarrassed to say now in hindsight i woulde given all the credit to the clinton administration, say 97%. and as terje and i were talking over drinks a stone's throw from the theater, i realized there was a floor underneath the floor, to me, a secret i didn't know. and he, to his credit, really didn't want to talk about what he had done. he wanted to talk about the extraordinary efforts of the israelis and palestinians to meet. as a storytaler, you say is that really? and when i traveled to interview her she did not want to talk about herself. >> rose: jennifer, what were you trying to capture for mona? >> i think the important thing about the mona who is in the play, she very cautious. she's a diplomat. she's very much an animal of diploam peace and chooses when she speaks very carefully. a population exploding with no place to explode. she chooses when she chooses to speak very carefully. and there are only a few times when she actually does speak up and speak her mind. organization she is there facilitatinfacilitating and ba

hindsight is a wonderful thing.u could go back, we would change it. if we had a time machine and could go back and do things differently, he would. you lost a lot of colleagues and friends. it's hard and i think one of the hardest things i found, and i think i said before, you don't get to give a lot of good news to people when you're out there. someone's died in an incident. what would normally be a really bad piece of news to follow, you're giving it as a plus, this guy has lost a leg but he's going to live. blackman's conviction for murder led to protests, his wife clare leading the campaign for his release but her husband had offered her the chance to walk away from their marriage. i said, if she didn't want to stick around and part company, at that point, or at any point through the process, it's something i would understand and i would wish her well for the rest of her life. you were basically offering her the chance to walk away? yes. never crossed my mind, never once. wouldn't have done anything differently.

something that in hindsight i took for granted. held back. like many of my generation, yes, i left school without completing my qualifications. i ended up doing a series of manual jobs. qualifications. i ended up doing a series of manualjobs. i remember was one night when i was working the night shift on a tv assembly line, on “— night shift on a tv assembly line, on——i night shift on a tv assembly line, on —— i rememberthinking, was night shift on a tv assembly line, on —— i remember thinking, was this going to be it for me? i knew i was missing out on family life. i came home that morning and i talked to my wife. i realised i needed to give education another go. so, i took my a levels at an evening class. a year later i was at university. yes, i studied hard, and i earned it. back then, it never cost a penny. i would like to think that i have given something back as a result. but i am not sure, you know, that the 20—something me would be making the same choices today. i would be faced with tuition fees, a burden of debt, and afar

public statements have come out to see that information has been passed them, but it's easy in hindsight missed opportunities, but what we are asking them to do is asking them to have 24—24 site, look at this before they have the full picture and that's difficult for them. they have to examine their own processes and where mistakes might have been made or where they can improve things in order to get that 20—24 site. will they be asking them sufficiently searching questions at themselves? definitely. they are dedicated individuals who want to make sure they get things right every time, and if things have gone wrong, they look to identify it in—house. if they have to make public statements about it then they will do, but it's to make sure they get it right next time. how transparent can this be given by its very nature a lot of what it does has to stacey crick? over the years, we've seen them become more transparent and there are certain things they will need to keep secret and we would expect them to, because we don't want those who would mean us we don't want those who would mean us har

are you suggesting now, knowing what you guys know with hindsight and whatever, are you saying that they should have -- you believe the obama administration should have denied him his clearance back in april based on the information that you're now aware of in connection with russia. >> i'm suggesting you can't have it both ways. folks saying obama expressed some concern about flynn, well, number one, it was pretty expected. this is a guy who was very outspoken in his criminal simple of president obama's policies so the idea that president obama didn't like the guy, doesn't seem shocking. the point you have to ask yourself, if you -- if the obama administration are or under the obama administration if the reissued one of the highest security clearances you can get, knowinger what they knew then, and then didn't do anything to take a pro-active step to suspended any way, shape or form, the question you have to askoffs if they were concerned, why didn't they take any steps? they're the ones who had at that point all the access and all the knowledge to everything on the security clearance,

i could be wrong, but we honestly made a decision between those two choices that even in hindsight, andof the world's most painful experiences, iwould make of the world's most painful experiences, i would make the decision, i would experiences, i would make the decision, iwould not experiences, i would make the decision, i would not conceal but from congress on october 28. anthony zurcher is in washington for us. what is the reaction been? you have seen what is the reaction been? you have seen hillary clinton supporters feeling like you we go again with james colby defending his investigation, they feel it was extremely influential on the outcome of the election, they blame him, including hillary clinton has blamed him, for contributing to her defeat so they will look at the testimony and say it is more of the same, he should not have done anything as far as revealing the investigation right before the election. meanwhile you heard from donald trump last night, tweeting about all this attention on james colby and the investigation is a democratic way of explaining their defeat, to try t

. >> in hindsight, in maria bartiromo's interview as well in hindsight, it's a lot more important. >>ucker: thanks a lot for that. appreciate it. we're joined by chief press secretary who is coming live from the white house. hearing all kinds of explanations from different sides for the firing of james comey. sum it up for us.s why was he fired today? >> it's real simple. director comey had lost the confidence of the rank-and-file within the fbi. he certainly lost the confidence for members of both sides, republicans and democrats in the house and the senate and frankly most importantly he lost the confidence of the american people. this was a guy who was being questioned day after day after day whether he was capablehi of leading the fbi. i think we saw based on his testimony last week, he no longer was and the president was presented with a pretty clear and direct and very strong recommendation by the deputy attorney general who a lot off people probably don't know, but the fbi director actually reports to the deputy attorney general. that attorney deputy made the recommendation, th

look.” suppose i use the word chilling because we know what is going to happen with the benefit of hindsightign of him, the body warmer, the baseball cap, nike trainers which i gather sell for about £300, that sort of thing. you canjust say, over to the right of this picture, the only visible sign of the atrocity he was about to commit if the strap from the rucksack which contained, as we now know, the nuts and bolts. police releasing the image because they want to get more information about what he was doing so information about what he was doing so they can find out more about others who may have been involved. thank goodness for cctv, some of the goodness it does in enabling them to piece together these events. the sunday telegraph, some quite strong language from the security minister. yes, there have been lots of different aspects to the terror attack, people looking at things we can do to stop radicalisation, to track down potential killers, and basically to nip in the bud the root causes of radical extremism. the security minister, ben wallace, apologies, having a right go at the medi

. >> it was a mistake of epic proportions in hindsight clearly and our policies broke down in that regardnnedy: the airlines are facing the proposition of the government forcing them to treat customers better. good idea or more party nonsense? rich lowry, jimmy failla, and chris barron. i see all this stuff, people are waiting for an incident to go viral. maybe they will get a little money from the nightly news. maybe flying is bad for everyone all around. if i feel bad for the flight a10 danlts and the jerk faces they have to put up with. >> i don't see why the ceos have to be brought up to capitol hill for a beating. customers can chief sighted whether they want to flyeau night. they are perfectly free to use another airline. united has responded to the consumer pressure. that's the way a marker is supposed to work. but this is a classic case where congress wants to grand stand fan pretend to be on the side of every consumer who might have a bad experience. kennedy: they fly a lot. and if there is one fun thing they get to do, it's poke the eyeballsf the airlines ceos. let's talk about

hindsight is a wonderful thing and given, especially what's happened to us in our life, if you coulda time machine and could go back and do things differently, he absolutely would. blackman's conviction for murder led to protests. his wife, claire, led the campaign for his release, but her husband had offered her the chance to walk away from their marriage. i said, if she didn't want to stick around or wanted to part company at that point, or at any point throughout the process, it would be something i'd understand and i'd, sort of, wish her well with the rest of her life. so you were, basically, offering her the chance to walk away? yes. never crossed my mind, never once. i wouldn't have done anything differently. i know sometimes people said to me, you know, "how are you doing this? how do you keep going?" i don't really have an answer, but it wasn't an option to do anything else. it's only 11 days since he was released from prison, now they both say they need time to readjust to life as a couple. in seven years of marriage, they've been apart more than they've been together. clint

i may be wrong, but we honestly made a decision between these two choices, that even in hindsight, iwhat's inside this suitcase? it's something that could make you some money without costing you anything. >> 7 on your site food. water. internet. we need it to live. but what we don't need are surprises, like extra monthly fees. i see you, fee, played by legendary actress anjelica huston. you got me, mark. we just want fast internet for one, simple rate. for all the streaming and the shopping and the newsing, but most of all... for the this. internet for one everyday simple price and no extra monthly fees. >>> looking for a way to make money on your next international flight? >> 7 on your side's michael finney shows you how easy it is to be an air courier. >> like you have a leather briefcase handcuffed to your wrist. it's a lot less dramatic than that. that guy with the black t-shirt is from the air courier company air mule. he has brought a bag to sfo and is handing it off to traveler david knapp who will take it from here to china. david looks over the bag's contempts, just to make

. >> in hindsight. >> it is.ifestyle. >> reporter: a lifestyle that took them through america's back yards in their teeny home on the rails. >> like you wouldn't fit in it. >> no, it was six feet long, three feet wide and mean feet tall. so it was a closet with a door. >> reporter: size didn't matter, though. melting pots with the circus, language and customs all blended with the symphony of animals that traveled right along with them. >> elephants were in the room right next to my first train car. the elephant car was the next one over. so i'd lay out. their trunks would come out, they'd sway. i'd feed them. try to reach over and give them treats and they'd reach over too. a baby tiger used to live on our car. and it would run up and down the hallway. baby bengal tiger. >> reporter: the animals, especially those elephants had always been ringling's biggest draw. they were also its achilles heel. animal rights advocates had long protested forcing wild animals to perform for entertainment. weld spent years fightin

barely, 'cause he never spoke very much, that joel could probably build this voice and so, with hindsight, it makes sense that you would actually cast foreign actors when you're not just trying to get an accent right, you're trying to get the way these two people spoke very specifically and you have examples of it. - well, they did extraordinary work at that and of course, you say you've worked with joel before, he's a terrific actor, he was wonderful in midnight special. this is a jeff nichols film, so by law, michael shannon has to be in it. (laughing) - he is. - and so, he was briefly in this film. the casting of it was great. actually, bill camp, who was also in midnight special, right? - midnight special. was incredible. - was in it. people now know better from the night of, the detective in the night of-- - and should know even more. i think he's one of the greatest actors. - well, you have a really good eye for actors and actresses. why has it been so good for you or so successful for you? you've built very quickly, like a repertory company almost. - certainly and i plan to use the
