problems. >> betsy, the most outrageous statement ever made, and to say to bring out the case of lee harvey oswald just came out of russia to shoot kennedy. who had all kinds of communist connections including. they brought that problem to us. your thoughts. why kennedy? why lee harvey oswald? why would he do that? >> it is perplexing. perhaps he is suggesting that somehow what happened to jfk years ago is analogous to what is happening to putin's critics. another piece of the interview shortly after putin talked about, making the jfk analogy, people concerned by police violence, are somehow evidence that united states has the same problems that russia has. they always point to sort of this broad civil rights criminal justice reform effort in the united states and try to suggest that it is evidence that the united states is not functioning well. when in reality peaceful protest is the best in this country. it is not a surprise that putin would use this stage that he had to try to take that same effort and undermine protesters. >> i watched his eyes looking at chris wallace who is a great reporter,

. >> his father was with lee harbor v harvey oswald. >> did anybody deny it's the father. >> welcomes, by the way, president of the united states pushing the conspiracy theory. >> he's up early this morning. >> that ted cruz's father was part of the assassination plot along with lee harvey oswald. he's just citing a report what people say. i know you worked for ted cruz so i'm not going to have you answer this question, but i'm just saying, just -- >> it's true. >> an announcement -- okay, good. an announcement to anybody out there, if you accuse my father of assassinating the president and then make fun of my wife and say she's ugly, all i can say is duck. not only duck today, duck tomorrow and duck every day for the rest of your life because i'm going to be coming after you every day and either you're going to be finished politically or i'll be finished politically and chances are good i'll have a lot more hate in me -- >> oh, my lord, no hate in your heart. >> you're reduced to dust. that said that's shocking i'm looking past a guy that worked for him. i'm looking at you walter. h
