approximately three hours and dave proceeds to raise red flags about john.ave stuben reported that he would leave for a week at a time and not have contact with anyone. >> we learned that john had a couple other romantic involvement with other women, so certainly in those situations there was an obvious romantic angle of, you know, a spurned or a jealous husband could have been involved. >> but when they asked dave stuben to take a polygraph exam to help clear his name, he decided that he would no longer talk to the police at all. >> and that same story is mirrored for suzanne spera. she wouldn't speak to the police anymore. >> john's brother tom claims all roads lead to dave and suzanne. he believes they conspired to get john's money. >> i don't think she wanted to get the divorce. i mean, why look at the house they lived in, you know, look at the income he had. i mean, she had a very, very healthy lifestyle. and she shared this information with dave. and dave said, well, we think his half of the business is probably worth x, and you'd get that income or wh

his name was john-- john diamond. debbie dvorak: john loved women. john was a ladies' man.ohn always had girlfriends. keith morrison: so debbie dvorak, john's kid sister, could certainly see her brother responding to a solicitation like michelle's. debbie dvorak: my brother's got a great personality. he's an attractive guy, and his personality makes him that much more attractive. keith morrison: then, a few days after meeting online, they met in person at a local restaurant. michelle theer (on recording): he was charming. he was funny. talked about movies and music, and things that me and marty didn't talk about. keith morrison: john diamond was an army staff sergeant, based at fort bragg and trained as a sniper, highly regarded, decorated, had been in the service since he was 18. by all accounts, he was a good soldier. but he was a playboy himself. he had been married once before and had a child from his first marriage. and he left the first wife and married, and they had a son together. keith morrison: michelle didn't know that john was still married. but maybe it didn't

john, just heartbreak for all of those people that are affected by this. >> john: definitely, but theey are getting water bombers and six aircraft and helicopters to attack the fire with winds subsiding is good news. i am john roberts and this is "america reports." time lapse footage captured with uc san diego show how quickly the palisades fire erupted yesterday afternoon. you can see the hillside smoking and how it is ablaze. it almost looks like the kona bay volcano there. folks given erupted evacuation warnings without no prior notice. look how quickly he had routes. >> sandra: people had to flee from their cars and that let's them and then i think that highway. but of course, emergency vehicles need to get through so now bulldozers working to clear the roads and shove the cars to the side. >> john: wow, it is close to apocalyptic movie. william la jeunesse in malibu with the flames to continue to burn along the pacific coast highway. i have been where you are standing many, many times. eight years to be a long row of houses with beautiful views of the beach and now nothing there.

john, not just the subway.ils are dealing with this crime as well. >> john: i don't understand city officials because remember, mayor adams was really criticized for saying perception of crime. it is not crime. i do city officials say it is the perception what is going on when we can clearly see with our own lying eyes with the situation is. then, kathy hochul congestive pricing in downtown new york where a lot of people are afraid to take mass transit. so, there is some disconnect in leadership that is difficult to understand. >> sandra: when i said it spread to commuter rail, we have a headline on the screen. it has spread to metro-north. we see on the commuter rails coach at this crime, a staffing saturday night and 31-year-old n diecast was playing music or vice versa, 47-year-old man and 31-year-old man spoke up about it and approaching grand central station saturday night. said something about the loud music and was attacked with a knife, stabbed multiple times. thank god had the strength to walk off at t

john lewin: no, he did not.rcus did show up for trial, but he was, to say the least, a reluctant witness: marcus singleton: in the beginning, when i first came to speak to mr. lewin, i had defended andre on my family's side. and i didn't wanna believe that he did it... then i found out that i'm probably gonna have to accept the truth. a truth that i don't really wanna have to accept even today, to be honest. josh mankiewicz: marcus told the jury his harrowing story of the fight he'd witnessed between his mom and his stepdad six weeks before her murder. marcus singleton: they were frantic and my mom was-- like, she was distraught-- i guess is the best word. like, she was just, like-- she was screaming. you know, she was, "call the police. call the police." josh mankiewicz: compelling... damning. but it turned out... the defense had a star witness too. josh mankiewicz: did you think andre was gonna take the stand? john lewin: no, i was-- i-- i was very surprised-- i would say shocked... josh mankiewicz: andre's de

i can hardly imagine what all of these people have been and continue to go through, john. >> john: noran i make, winds later on today. i'm john roberts and washington. this is "america reports." the national weather service issuing red flag warnings were severe fire conditions all the way through wednesday with wind gusts reaching as much as 70 miles per hour in some areas. l.a. fire officials warning earlier today those high winds coupled with low humility in dry conditions will keep the fire threat in l.a. at a "critical level." >> sandra: they could further complicate efforts to get the fires under control. at least 24 people have died and dozens more are still missing. >> john: we kick off our coverage for you this afternoon on "america reports" with griff jenkins who has live in malibu admitted that his devastation. >> good afternoon, john. someone who has spent a lot of time in california, you full well know what the national weather service putting out a particularly dangerous situation. that is the alert. it is the highest alert that the agency can issue for those wind conditio

and i'm wondering if you can discuss the two john adams's as a two john adams is as a way to talk a littlebit about the american revolution and start to introduce us to your generational thesis. yeah, yeah. so the adams's the book actually the first sentence of the book is about john adams. i'm always so cone of silence. right? we're not going to tell doug. that's right. he loved john adams much more than others well, you can. so what i always say is, you people have got to pick it's important because people say, you know, you've written with rest you what do you think? and i say respect washington love adams because you can someone with all of their flaws but the tremendous respect for washington sort of unparalleled so yeah that's how i approach it i think that's very good. yeah. so i mean, the adamses were amazing. i mean, among other things, of course, they had this especially the elderly, the elder one, but the younger one even worse, you know, a kind of logan mania, like they could not stop writing. and they also knew that they were going to be important. historical figures never thr

>> everyone's talking about elton john. >> sir elton john, elton john, elton john, elton john there willn to be, he is a superstar and a legend. >> now elton john opens up, in his own words, his incredible career. >> i had to be flamboyant. i had to be acrobatic. i've been through so much and i've come out the other side. his battles with addiction when i was using it was like i was so felt so bad about myself. awful. his health. it's been four months now since i haven't been able to see, and my left eye is not the greatest, so there's hope and encouragement that it will be okay. >> and the performers he can't get enough of. >> now it's all about the girls. it's about chapel. it's about sabrina. it's about taylor swift. these girls are killing it. >> but elton john's stamp of approval. >> the exclusive interview with elton john. >> i'm still standing and i am better than i ever did. and there's a lot more to come. >> elton john still standing, now streaming on hulu. >> who is this guy? >> he was kind of creepy. >> pure evil. we were shocked. >> this is every woman's nightmare. >> this is

now john pope john pope was anti-slavery. he was a republican. he was opinionated abrasive as katie has beautifully described this morning. but i want to emphasize something she alluded to. he had a lot to say about civilians. he had a lot to say about undisciplined union. he had nothing. i have yet to find a public utterance. he made this man who was a provocateur and was brought in because he was a provocateur sure, did not provoke on the question of slavery, i have yet to find a public that he uttered. it's not mentioned any of his orders. it's not mentioned any of the coverage of his brief testimony. congress, none of it. so he was selected of an as provocation. now the army of virginia marched in the spring summer of 1862 are the troops that would become the of virginia probably had as much extended contact and varied contact with virginia civilians and enslaved people than any soldiers that would serve in. and that's 1862 period more varied over a wired wider geography than the army of the potomac ever of course in our banks goes into the v

appreciate it john. all right. >> with us now, leigh ann caldwell, an anchor for washington post live. and matt mowers, former trump administration official. i want to play. our lauren fox chasing down the current house speaker, mike johnson ago. i want to replay that moment so we can hear again what he said. let's listen. >> how are you feeling this morning? >> yep. confident. >> how many holdouts do you think there still are? >> would you be? i think i expect we can get it done on the first round. working towards it. >> would you be open to making chip roy choi, the rules committee chairman? >> all right. first thing i want to point out is the excellent camera work. there. our camera team and lauren fox, they're gliding down the stairs keeping out with the house speaker. not a glitch at all there. the second thing i want to point out, leanne, is the fact that he says he thinks he's going to get it done on the first ballot today. do you think he's right? >> well, we're going to see. >> that's a question

john goes to harvard as his brothers and his father had done. and there he meets singleton copley, whose older living in boston he already has a transit reputation as a painter. a for a little country on the edge of the nothing. america had a number of good painters. copley was of them. and when young trumbull sees his paintings, he's stunned. he's never imagined anything like it. these are. these are real humans and real spaces with real light. and he's inspired and encouraged by them. he finds his subject when he's in his late teens. the british had been occupying boston for a number of years. and then in april. 1775, they do a sweep the countryside looking for weapons and malcontents, and they have two encounters with militia at lexington and concord, and then a fighting retreat back to boston. and the result of this is that new england rises up and militias from every state come to besiege the british in boston. john is an adjutant with a connecticut regiment stationed roxbury, which then it's now part of the city. it was south of the city.

we will see you at 3:00. >> john: thanks, martha you and a half an hour. him michael lawler on the house foreign affairs committee. two big questions and all of this, is this deal going to go through? we have seen hamas read renege on the deals in the is this the road to peace between israel ane palestinians in gaza because hamas will still be in control. i didn't know there will be huge pressure and it will be put on iran and put on hamas and put on hezbollah by incoming trump administration. we really want to extend the abraham accords to include saudi arabia. saudi arabia is looking at the miracles of dubai and abu dhabi and we want a piece of that. and rest in the middle east and the region on fire does not bring us to that goal. how do you see this unfolding in the years ahead? >> no question. i'm cautiously optimistic that this cease-fire agreement and the release of the hostages is going to go through. i don't think they can overstate the importance of president trump coming in and forcing a reset here. forcing both our allies and hamas to understan

meets john singleton copley, who's somewhat older. living in boston he already has a transatlantic reputation as a painter for a little country on the edge of america. city. and on june six he. turns 19. 11 days later in the afternoon, he hears an enormous of muskets and artillery north of the on june 6th, he turns 19 11 days later in the afternoon, he hears an enormous racket of muskets and artillery north of the city. four miles away from where he is. and what's happening is this. this is the painting he does 10 years later of the fin british charge at bunker hill. the british had tried to take position twice. they had artillery on ships in the harbor, but the muzzles of the cannon could not be raised high enough to cover t going up hill, so those first two charges were more than decimated. but by the third charge, the americans had begun to run out of ammunition, so now the british are going to give it back to the people who've been slaughtering them all during the afternoon. it's a very busy painting. there's a lot going on in it.

. >> john: they did. in joey jones, fox news contributor not restart staff sergeant you had a chance to listen to that. i recall back in 2014 in his book "duty:memoirs of a secretary of war" "i think he has been going on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past 4 decades." given the speech that the outgoing president just gave, how do the past four years measure up against robert gates' assessment? >> it was kind of ironic that president mentioned killing bin laden and it leaves the room or at that time was that he was in the situation room against that operation. a cell phone within his own speech if that is true. you're going to have to take a victory lap i guess on some things and try to paint things as good as you can on your way out. i don't think he has many allies in the democratic party of the future that will hold his legacy up. it is really disappointing to see someone stand up there and justify even what happened in afghanistan and to this day not acknowledge

john was submissive. she got off on denigrating him, calling him a fag in front of her friends, taunting him with the male models she kept on the back burner, her explosive temper keeping him unsure and on edge." maureen: absolutely. and she also, counter to the sort of myth that she helped perpetuate as well, she very much was the pursuer of john f. kennedy junior, not the other way around. i mean, he did eventually pursue her, but after they dated initially in the early 1990's, he dropped her. he later on a date flung a letter across the dinner table that was written by a friend of his accusing her of being a vapid, fruition social climber -- vapid, shrewish social climber, and walked out. i include the parts of carolyn that are complicated and that are not necessarily admirable to ensure that there's a three-dimensional person on that page, the same person who lived a very complicated, fascinating life, who got what she was told, that all american girls were told, was the brass ring, and when she got i

i think he wasn't sure what john was going to do. and then when he finds out what he's going to do, republicans lose. but i'd like to go back a little bit, though, with the mccain relationship, because it's very interesting early on, they fought over campaign finance legislation and then in is oral histories. senator mcconnell was not very charitable towards senator mccain, particularly about him being president. he thought he was particularly ill suited to be president. so there was definitely friction and acrimony between them. but later in life, they did beme really good friends. and when senator mccain was very ill, senator mcconnell flew to sedona, arizona, to be with him. and the two men sat there with each other. and according to someone know senator mccain very well, the two men kind of cried and had a moment of, you know, real closure and friendship. what did senator mcconnell tell you about his relationship with john mccain? that it was rocky for a while, but it ended very well. and one of those moments between the two play

john, they're saying he was 100 and. i'm sorry. john's having a problem with his ifb. beth, let me start out with you. do you think this guy should have been on the radar of the intelligence community or federal law enforcement? >> you know, this one i would say would be pretty tough. he. self-radicalized you know, he's using these online unregulated platforms, probably telegram or something like that. and he's acting completely alone in these kinds of circumstances. it's incredibly hard because he's not talking to anybody. he's not reaching out. he's not part of a cell. and so this method that is really promoted by the islamic state is something that is the most difficult for law enforcement to catch. and, you know, i have to say they have caught over 14 people were arrested this year related to islamic state activities. so, you know, but sometimes somebody slips through. yeah. >> mayor landrieu, i mean, what is going through your mind tonight? as you see bourbon street back open? what questions do you want answered? >> well, first of all, everybody's thoughts and pra

>> john?s is going to be a big week for trump's nominees. 13 of them have scheduled hearings on capitol hill. and sources close to trump's transition team tell me that these individuals have been spending weeks in intense preparation for these high stakes appearances, including mock hearings that sometimes have gone on for upwards of two hours, where they have been forced to confront their controversies. their past statements, getting them fully understanding trump's policies and trying to demonstrate not only for the public but to donald trump as well, that they are going to be someone who will carry out his agenda and what quietly, republicans have been urging some of the more unconventional picks to be just open with the public about some of what they've said in the past and publicly, many of them are just saying, give these these nominees a chance. listen to what senator katie britt said yesterday on state of the union. >> what president trump has done is he has selected people who are wil

yes, john. when i go out to the airport, and you have to go through hoops, you have to go three hours early, and this is so sad to see our situation like this. for innocent people celebrate their new year's and to get run over like this, it is heartbreaking. and i left the country when i was 18 years old. and i was hoping that somehow, somewhere, we would find a solution so they can leave us alone. it is crazy. my heart goes out to the victims in louisiana, and the future victims unless we find a solution. these people live for vengeance, and i hope we find a solution soon enough. and i hope we save all our money here by putting our differences up, and stay out of their way. these people have been fighting like this for ages. they had their own government flag and all of that. and now they would like to come back with vengeance. it is very important. let's find a solution and get this crazy madness out of our lives here. that is all i got to host: say. thank you. stephen and washington. you ment

yeah, john. so, you know, there's going to be thousands of georgia and notre dame fans just walking through the french quarter down poydras street to get to the superdome for today's game. and instead of that normal energy for the sugar bowl fans, certainly going to feel a little uneasy after what happened. now, the superintendent of new orleans police says they're doing everything they can to make it safe there. take a listen. >> we have put officers out there as a grid, walking down the streets, every street in the french quarter looking for suspicious packages, bags, ice chests, you name it. >> and they have been walking it as a grid. we've been doing the same thing on poydras and all the accesses into the superdome. part of the safety plan is we have bomb dogs out there sweeping the superdome and all the exterior area, and we're locking that down. that will be locked down through the game tomorrow now, georgia's football team did hold a walk through at the superdome last night, while notre da

i don't know if you want to weigh in on that, john. it is stunning to me that they still pinned all of their hopes on this even when it was falling apart. >> john: yeah, what is interesting, too, is that as mary kathryn was pointing out, you had all of these charges and all of this lawfare that was allayed against trump and he won the popular vote, he won all seven swing states decisively and now you have the ceos of all these tech companies coming to bend the knee. it is like a "game of thrones" down there at mar-a-lago. they bend the knee and kiss the ring. democratic politicians who seem to have gone completely quiet on this idea of resisting trump. the resistance is crumbling. you have a prosecutor in manhattan and a friendly judge who are willing to try to say well doesn't matter what the american public decided. doesn't matter what the ceos of these companies or doesn't matter what politicians in washington are doing. we think he is a bad guy and we want the country to know about it. to what end? >> as trey and dana point out, th

and what does everybody see, john castles in the distance. so it was really a way for him to show where he saw himself in the hierarchy of williamsburg. oh, that's so interesting. yeah. the so it's kind of crude, but the the stanchions, the iron stands, ins and the row that we've got up right now, that is where we have found the fence for the garden. so everywhere we've got a stanchion, we found one of these massive apostles that was talking about. so it goes out actually the fence keeps going and we haven't even traced out how far it goes in that direction. but it turns and it goes south in that direction. tell us what you hope people will learn when they come to this location. i you know, i think what i hope they will learn is that this garden was one of the first kind of attempts at creating a really fashionable landscape and understanding that these fashions came from england primarily, but then these guys are trying to translate it into a completely new environment and sometimes successfully and sometimes unsuccessfully. so we kind of wa

townsend was john poindexter considered a credible witness? i think a lot of people did not think he was a credible witness because of his behavior. the record was that when he learned that the justice department was starting to investigate iran-contra, he tipped oliver north and oliver north then destroyed documents, documents and deleted emails. fortunately, he was unable to eliminate all the evidence, but essentially poindexter engaged in obstruction of congress. so that evidence had come out at that point. and i don't believe he was a very credible witness. and he was, as i mentioned before, ultimately prosecuted and convict did, although his conviction was overturned. but he was somebody who a lot of people, i think, felt had to see the american people. was it rare for congressional hearings like this to create eight mini celebrity eyes like oliver north and fawn hall, etc.? well, i think it's rare in in the bigger scheme of things, it's rare for a congressional hearing to generate that kind of attention that does not happen too often. bu
