. >> hello, i'm johnston, i guess affiliated d.c. citizen. one of the things i was struck by as i listened the your remarks -- to your remarks were references to foreign actions, external actors. and i didn't hear domestic intrusions and internal actors. wonder if you have a response to that observation. thank you. >> so the committee was -- [laughter] was trying to be responsive to any kinds of threats. i mean, there are many ways to compromise an election system both from outside the country and inside the country. the reason why there is a special emphasis on the foreign actors is because this is a whole new level of exposure, and it's by a nation-state. and that elevates the concerns about the status of the election infrastructure to a whole new level. >> i think one can consider the whole report as applying to domestic actors as well. >> my name is michael isenberg. i'm here in my capacity as chairman of the american bar association's information security committee which has a legacy of involvement with technology aspects of election sys

neutrogena® >>> joining us now from washington, d.c., with a look at axios and editor in chief nicholas johnstonhing for us this morning? >> the one big thing, there are snakes everywhere. that is how president trump is viewing the government that he oversees. a quote from him to a member of his administration. suspicious of all levels of his government from career staff and agencies to members of the west wing staff and some of the most senior and hand-picked aides that work right around the oval office. dozen trust any of them at all. in the hours after "new york times" op-ed posted yesterday two officials reached out and said the writer took the words right out of our mouth. there are dozens of people who sort of fill the bill of written that. something we wrote about as long ago as last summer. members of the administration some of the very senior who saw themselves trying to play a role and now with the most recent revelations and that bombshell "new york times" op-ed seeing that right in the forefront. >> the author of it referring by saying we. so, an indication that there is definitely m
