and president of diligence llc, mike baker, former ohio state democrat state senator capri rounds out the. >> i did not know we could do that. kennedy: there was quite a writer back stage you had to sign and agree to, it might not have been on there, but jazz hands always on the menu, cap pre--capri. >> with jazz hands. kennedy: he does well in iowa why can no, not replicate that in south carolina, is his lack of african-american support just a talking point. >> from whom is the question. kennedy: anyone who wants to beat mayor pete. >> there you go, you look at someone like joe biden big strength is the fact he has a really solid, relationship, and support from the african-american community. i am sure she is stirring the pot -- he is stirring pot saying mayor pete does not have a great track record in south bend, indiana why he i where he is he. and this error with the stock photo o of a -- kenyan woman ana boy does not help. kennedy: when you launch a surge campaign. there are so many elements it easy to have one person get lazy and say here is a picture i'll put this here. >> in c

if joining now, mike baker, covert ops officer.ld a cia director defends someone whose political biases have been well documented, what message does that send? >> this a couple of things here. i don't think director gina haspel needs any self-righteous lectures from former cia officers, no matter how senior they might be. she doesn't need them trying to explain to her how to set her compass or to do the right thi thing. i find that really distasteful and off-putting, she's an outstanding director and as far as why would she protect a whistle-blower? if a whistle-blower comes forward, using the intelligence communities whistle-blower protection act which is a mouthful -- you use the protections that are in place. if that person comes forward in good faith, in relation to matter what their politics are, frankly. i'm fully on board with that but what you've got to see if got some members, former members of the intel community who are coming out and making that case, not about the anonymity but they are talking about the protections in

guidance was reiterated but mike baker note that implies a lower than expected final quarter of the yearmain positive for home depot but fell short on consensus. on the conference call the ceo said look, sales like high-priced discretionary items, for example, those haven't slowed we're not seeing macro changes they said it's a multiyear strategy and the investment that goes along with that is bearing fruit, but not quite at the rate that we had initially planned for. he also said that plus you've got continued deflation of lumber prices, $175 million drag on this quarter and a shift of black friday sales, kind of distorted the quarter. this is what i mean. last year black friday was in the third quarter. this year in the fourth quarter. in 2018 black friday for home depot the single highest sales day in history that can make a difference there when you're looking year over year kohl's as you mentioned lowered its guidance lower than reported sales, that stock price getting crushed here comparable sales did turn positive, up 0.4%, a good change from down 3% in the first half of the year.

mike? [laughter] mr. baker: still looking, right? david: one of the biggest challenges of being secretary of state is something called jet lag. how do you deal with jet lag? mr. baker: i took something and then the fda came out and said this will kill you. but i had a good response from it. i could get six hours of really good sleep. of course, i had a very comfortable bed on my plane. i would go between meetings and i would take one and tap out. david: some say the secretary of state plane is 40 years old and they need a new one. you have any comments on that? mr. baker: i think the current secretary of state is better equipped to answer that. i had a very interesting plane. i had the plane lyndon johnson was sworn in on after jack kennedy was killed in dallas. 26,000. that was the secretary of plane in those days . ordered a new air force one and it didn't arrive until after george w. bush became president. david: you are one of the few people who worked for gerald ford, ronald reagan, and george herbert walker bush. how would you

andrea baker for andrea baker consulting and as mike shared with you, we were primarily responsible for the outreach for this project. i won't take much of your time. i will say it is reflected on the slide, that we have seven community meetings over the course of almost three years. as mike indicated, this project started at 145 units so it took a lot of community conversation to get us to something that today i think we all feel really proud of. also reflected on our slide is the fact that we went to the bay view cac on six different occasions. what is not reflected on the slide, are numerous small group and individual meetings with bay view stakeholders, key bay view stakeholders and that addressed issues like concerns for our small businesses and the neighborhood and how would they be accommodated as a real concern that our small businesses not be gentrified out of the neighborhood as those changes happen. it also involves the color and materials. we talked about spaces at the group floor level and with that i am going to be quiet and i'm here and can answer any questions that you m

mike mckinley's testimony, it wasn't once, it was three times. >> right. >> you're reactir reaction to a? >> andrea, both republicans and democrats have served as secretary of state before, jim baker and hillary clinton come to mind, they both checked politics at the door and put the interests of the american people first. what we've seen from mike pompeo throughout this episode is that he serves one person and one person only, that's donald trump. he doesn't serve the interests of the united states. he's prepared to throw u.s. foreign service officers under the bus. this is just further indication that this administration is not focused on the national interests of the united states. they're focused on the personal interests of the president. and we're all suffering as a result of it. >> you know, there are 75,000 state department employees, i don't need to tell you, jake and roberta, ambassador jacobson, you've both been at the highest levels of the state department, and as jake points out, i've never seen it this political. john kerry was a senator and a secretary of state. you've worked under republicans. >> six presidents. and i think, you know, we often talk about that quain

mike pence's team to testifiy as part of the probe. joining me from capitol hill, geoff bennett, political analyst peter baker, and former federal prosecutor for the southern district of new york, jessica roth who is now a professor. so much to get to. geoff, have democrats decided that they have enough without bolton and kupperman's testimony, is is it that they think that it is a bad idea to drag it out and force them to testify, is it both? what is the strategy here? >> all of the above. since the very beginning, democrats have said that this impeachment inquiry needs to be fast and it needs to be focused. how democrats because they control the committees, they control the hearings which means that they control the focus of the narrative. they control the story that they are trying to build, the case they are bringing against president trump. what they have less control over is how fast this process moves. especially when you have these two potential key witnesses, charles kupperman and john bolton, essentially kicking to the courts this question of whether they need to comply. now, to help explain this to people because i will admit th

mike callous called you on monday. bob mueller starts investigating you and your cfo and your lawyer are cooperating. jesus. and, i mean this totally sincerely, peter baker is the best in the arena, and and is performing a remarkable civic function by standing up and being called an enemy of the people. >> that part is true. >> but this is a difficult time for people who do what peter does. the president of the united states is -- (applause) >> he's creating a climate of anxiety, fear, toward people who are simply trying to do what jefferson wanted us to do, which was to debate, find a decision, whatever that might be, but there had to be a free exchange of ideas. for all of that work, i think this investigation is so wide-ranging and just what rumsfeld would call no unknowns. i can't speculate. if anything, i would speculate there are elements, characters, that we've never heard of. and the fear, the fear is be that when this appears, in peter's newspaper, and online, will the country accept it as dispassionate fact and then make a decision, or is that 35 to 40% of the country that will follow him anywhere going to say, this is the document to which it'

. >> peter baker, actually, if you look at that q poll we were just discussing, mike bloomberg just gotdays ago. he's already at 3%, tied with amy klobuchar and kamala harris in that national poll. >> yeah, he is. look, i guess i'm not as, you know, bullish, i suppose to use the right phrase. i think that, you know, i don't see what his constituency is honestly. i see the market for, you know, new york billionaires has already been filled, and i think that what part of the party is he appealing to? the part of the party that wants a republican, that was once an independent, that gave money to, you know, george w. bush. he's got a lot of progressives who don't like him. his actions obviously on gun control would appeal presumably to the liberal base and other issues like that, but i don't see the crying demand for him. i think within the elites there is a dissatisfaction with the field, but look at the polls. the polls say they actually are kind of satisfied with the candidates that they have, and they're fairly committed to them. you know, he's going to go up against joe biden for some
