john mccain did say and yet john mccain never became president of the united states, donald trump did16 campaign that he believed torture worked, and he was voted into office. i come back to this point that for all of your frankly fine words, the american people are not where you are. well, there's been a big cia propaganda effort to talk about this programme and promote torture as an effective thing. amazon, who did the film, did some polling and they said, "0k, before you watch the film, how many of you think that torture tactics after 9/11 were effective?" it was something like 57%. after the film, once people were educated about the contents of the actual senate report, it went to 13%. so i really think this shows that education is needed, right? the american people need to know the facts. there is a morality issue with torture and you could say "i don't want to torture because it's immoral," but whatpeople don't realise is that it is massively ineffective and once people learn those lessons, the support for torture will drop dramatically. i imagine, i'm looking at what mccain sai

when this report came out, something called the mccain feinstein act, john mccain, republican, said we will get international committee of the red cross access, all interrogation techniques across the us government regardless of if you are the cia or the fbi is to adhere to these minimal standards so that is a law thatis minimal standards so that is a law that is ineffective. i right now we recognise that our moral authority isa recognise that our moral authority is a real weight and it's notjust what we do, military perspective but it's how we carryjohn mccain himself said part of the reason of getting this all out was to reclaim our moral authority so we could be a country that inspires people. john mccain did say that betty never became president, donald trump did and he made plain during his 2016 campaign that he believed torture work, he was voted into office. i come back to this point that for all of your frankly fine words, the american people are not where you are. well, there has been a big cia propaganda effort to talk about this programme and promote torture as an effective

remember when there was that attack on john mccain's family about his daughter in the 2004 election, 2000 primaries, rather, and then you know, we saw just how much tension ratcheted up between mccain and bush for years after that as a result of it? well, how is it that in 2016 this current president was able to insult jeb bush's wife, ted cruz's wife, john mccain and still have george p. bush endorse him. still have the support of ronna romney who's so enamored of being connected to him that she doesn't use his last name anymore. >> at his direction. >> these things are pointing to the idea of this being a cult personality. remember when republicans cared about deficits? remember when republicans cared about free trade, all these things that are not so much ideological as they are trump's only peculiar quirks of his own psychology. he wakes up and thinks something, and then that becomes republican orthodoxy. >> point about dignity, this is what's always surprising to me. it's just like i guess my own -- my own psychology is such that i have enough kind of, i don't know, lack of a be

think of what he said about john mccain and his supporters just overlooked that. john mccain. now john dingell. what the president misunderstands is that cruelty is not wit. just because he gets a laugh for saying the cruel things that he says doesn't mean he's funny. it's not funny at all. it's very sad. thank you all very much. happy holidays to all of you. >> hello, everyone. thank you for joining me at this hour. we've been watching as house speaker nancy pelosi speaking in her weekly news conference with reporters talking about bills they have passed, what they're working on, but also importantly talking about next steps in the process of impeachment. the next steps as you can tell from the line of questioning has been very confusing and kind of up in the air since last night. a lot to discuss here. let me bring in david gergen, cnn political analyst. what we heard from speaker pelosi and though she did shut down questions about the impeachment process, very clearly saying she's not going to take anymore, she did say when asked what the process is, that we're going to wai

. >> john mccain used the bully pulpit to call vladimir putin a murderous thug and graham used to stand next to him. mitt romney called russia the greatest geo political threat to america in 2012 and senator, republican senator bob corker pushed hard for the sanctions against russia over the objections public and private of this president. the republican party has collapsed on the question of russia as a threat to u.s. national security. >> and that may be the most -- worst of all of the things that have happened, not just the white house that collapsed but the republican party in the senate who really should know better, those senators. >> all right. so wonderful to have you. thank you so much, andrea. we'll sneak in a break. on the other side, what happens next. don't go anywhere. grandpa, can you tell me the story again? every family has their own unique story. give your family the chance to discover theirs this holiday season, with ancestry. when youyou spend lessfair, and get way more.son, so you can bring your vision to life and save in more ways than one. for small prices, you ca

i went there twice, once with senator mccain, and senator graham. seizing crimea. poisoning political opponents. arming militants in eastern ukraine, who shot down an airliner, and propping up assad's brutal dictatorship in syria. ukraine itself was targeted by russian hackers, i like to remind ourselves, as this turns debate, it is not really a debate, falsehoods being put out there, i love fiona saying, they are heavily in russian propaganda and anyone who blames ukraine for the interference in our own election, but they themselves are targeted by russia. on my trip with senator mccain, to the baltics i also learned a whole number of other incidences like this, including estonia, when they moved a statue of a russian fighter away from a public square, into a cemetery, they were then, they had their internet shut down and they had to try to communicate with people from a hillside. it's a small country, but still. these were things that have been going on for years. and when we were there, i need to you fully understand that this could happen in a big way in our ow

in 2002, democratic senator russ feingold got together with republican senator john mccain to introduceaddressing campaign finance abuses since the watergate era. >> well, there was this law in place, the federal elections law for 20 or 30 years, but a loophole had been created that was undermining the contribution limits that had been created by the legislation. so what it meant was this spigot wheel where wealthy individuals could give unlimited amounts of money. >> did you feel like it was a soft form of bribery? >> without a doubt. in fact, we called it legalized bribery. so john mccain and i decided we had to at least get rid of this loophole. >> it also prohibited corporations and other groups for paying for tv ads in the run up to primary and again elections. >> real reform. >> but eight years later, the law would be all but wiped out by one of the most controversial court cases in american history. >> my name is david bosse and i'm president of citizens utilitied. >> a conservative nonprofit called citizens united produced a docket umentary called "hilla the movie," which slamme

it was suggested we could raise this with senator john mccain and senator mccain could raise it with james comey and that way we could ensure that this was being dealt with. we felt like that would hopefully with this to rest in terms of our obligation to make sure this didn't get swept under the rug. so we gave it to one of his advisers and -- >> host: david kramer. was he a friend of yours? >> guest: he was an acquaintance and affect some of what helped us act in the mid-2000s with some of our early stories on kleptocracy when the wife and i worked at the "wall street journal." she was originally the one who admit him. he had been helpful to us. we trusted him from that relationship and i guess one of the things we kind of knock ourselves or is given that he was at the time helping journalists, i.e. us, we might a suspected he is going to do the same thing but we didn't. we thought he was just going to give this tooth senator mccain. as it turned out he shared it with some journalists -- gave this to -- one journalist eventually published it and that happened i think on january 10

you see former american vietnam vets coming back, when you see somebody like a john kerry or a john mccainith your friends. you make peace with your enemies. ♪ >> anthony: as a father of a young girl, is it all gonna be okay? it's all gonna work out? my daughter will be able to come here. in five years, ten years, she'll be able to have a bowl of bun cha and the world will be a better place? >> president obama: uh, yeah. i mean, i think progress is not a straight line. you know? there are gonna be moments at any given part of the world where things are terrible. but having said all that, i think things are gonna work out. >> anthony: thank you so much. >> president obama: cheers. >> anthony: cheers. i'm your 70lb st. bernard puppy, and my lack of impulse control, is about to become your problem. ahh no, come on. i saw you eating poop earlier. hey! my focus is on the road, and that's saving me cash with drivewise. who's the dummy now? whoof! whoof! so get allstate where good drivers save 40% for avoiding mayhem, like me. sorry! he's a baby! it's the kay black friday event. save up to 60% on

there was no real issue that mccain really had he wanted something to get done. therefore it really didn't help him to have a pause in the campaign. so i think in that particular case, mccain didn't benefit from, what he wanted to do which is bring the people together and have president say something about it. neil: is it your gut right now, that it would be kind of hard to dislodge this thing before the election next year? could be aberrant event i know? >> there is always exogenous event you cannot predict. china, taiwan, iran, israel, ukraine, russia. you don't know what will happen. assuming none of those events unpredictable happen, right now economy on reasonably good trajectory. neil: stay here if you can. we glued you to the seat. he has nowhere to go. developments in the bond market to tell you about. stay with us. you're watching fox business. most people think of verizon as a reliable phone company. but to businesses, we're a reliable partner. we keep companies ready for what's next. (man) we weave security into their business. (second man) virtualize

he kind of plagiarized the john mccain straight talk express. he's doing the best he can.e talks about the record player, or flipping coupons, everybody is like weight, is this guy in touch with reality? the clip you played about kids stroking his leg care at the pool, there's a photograph of him sucking on his wife's finger. it's really weird. then, you see the picture of him trying to get the attention of the guy at the diner and the guys just sitting there watching the football game. no idea the vp is there. this guy is way out of touch. trump is up on everything. >> greg: juan, i think you need to point out that he is still commanding the lead in the poll. >> juan: no. i have an issue with you. i am so upset, because i'm a grandfather and you are going after him as a grandfather. well, you know what, awesome old folks, we are still in the game. but anyway, so what, you would have her purred preferred horse father it was a hitch. reporters thought it was an opportunity to get time with the candidate. i think, i think republicans are worried about joe biden. >> jesse: do

remember the attack of mccain's daughter and we saw how much tension ratcheted for years after that, as a result of that. how is that they're able to insult ted bush's wife, ted cruz's wife, john mccain and still have george p. bush endorse him, still have the support of romney, obviously, who's so, i guess, inamerred that she doesn't use her last name. >> at his direction. >> i think these things are pointing to the idea of this being a cult personality and remember when republicans cared about deficits, free trade? all these things are not so much ideological as they are trump's -- peculiar quirks of his own psychology. that becomes orthodox. and my own psychology is such that i have enough, for lack of a better word, moral vanity. i would never -- debasing yourself comes with your own cust. even if you don't have integrity or dignity, it seems like these people embarrass themselves that at a visceral human level it doesn't disincentivize them from doing it. but it doesn't. >> some of these people don't realize they're making a name for themselves a legacy, that when they die, thei

s chief political editor mccain is out there speedy party conference in berlin i asked how the new leadership team presented itself. well as resoundingly winners of both the grassroots vote but also here at the party conference they received very broad backing to navigate what seems to be a very difficult course it is to take they are skeptical over what we just heard of the so-called grand coalition with anger machall c.d.u. party they are laying down the all basically a set of demands where they want to renegotiate with the conservative c.d.u. on climate investment on overall investment also minimum wage of 12 year as is being discussed here or else and that will be the big question in the end or else what just through to remind ourselves of this self declared last term of anger the american office has already seen more bumpy times than palm waters so does this mean what does what does this this step this is a mean that this governing coalition with angle of attack has conservatives. it means that this marriage contract of the coalition could be renegotiated the city use adamant that it won
