"the lead with jake tapper" starts right now. >>> the bureau sent a warning about the texas shooter just hours before his terrorist attack. the national lead new evidence that a dead texas gunman had direct contact with an isis recruiter. startling information comes from the fbi director saying his agency warned local police with simpsons hours before his attack. >>> tom brady coming out against an nfl report suggesting that he likely knew the footballs had been deflated purposely. the lawyers are trying to take the air out of the league's case. >>>

cnn's jake tapper sat down with christie. christie tries to create separation from jeb bush who recently came out in support of his brother's decision to invade iraq. >> knowing then what we know now, no wmd in iraq et cetera was that the right decision to go to war? >> no it wasn't. now, i think president bush made the best decision he could at the time given that his intelligence community was telling him there was wmd and there were other threats right there in iraq. but i don't think you can honestly say that if we knew then that there was no wmd that the country should have gone to war. so my answer would be no. but i think, you know what we got to avoid is continuing to go backwards in this country. we need a forward looking foreign policy that talks about how to reassert american authority and influence around the world. but i want to directly answer your question because that's what i do. if we knew then what we know now and i were the president of the united states i wouldn't have gone to war. but, you know we don't

one thing jake tapper pressed him on was the fact he rented out his e-mail list to very questionable there were people sending out e-mail about biblical cancer cures under the banner of mike huckabee. that's very questionable. i think that makes national reporters take him less seriously. even though that might set off warning lights for people at "new york times" or beltway media, they don't seem to register with republican primary voters in places like iowa and south carolina. what perhaps gets us in a tizzy here in the acela corridor new york and d.c. might not be such a problem in the heartland. >> right. it's certainly a fair question. okay so quickly, susan, betty mentioned fiorina. she ran a major company, and was dismissed. the media consider her a long shot because she's never held elected office. >> her experience, she touts mitt romney. not his tenure as governor he uses executive experience more to out to his candidacy for president. and so i think the fact that she can bring that to the table, she shouldn't be dismissed. the media really i think has been not -- i think i
