let's bring in mike rogers. let's be honest. the president doesn't know what he's talking about with any of this, but the idea of mcraven says that you shouldn't mock -- mcraven, he's a hillary clinton supporter, and they should have caught osama bin laden faster. your response? >> all of that's wrong. i think this should be an embarrassing moment for the president. i'm not sure it will be. you know, i was brought up. i served in the united states military that, you know, the officers always eat last, and you never blame your subordinates to your superiors. you take responsibility. he has mastered none of that. this is a gentleman who has served 37 years admirably. he happened to be the commander at the time when the raid was both planne and conducted, and he did it admirably. you remember i was the chairman at the time, chris. so i saw all of the development of the intel package back in about january. the raid happened in may. you know, i started getting very close to this back in january. so we watched all of the development o

with us now, former republican chair of the house intel committee mike rogers.thank you for being here. the words from republican lawmakers have changed dramatically over the weekend since the president's comments have come out. what is the assessment of the republican appetite to tie the president's hands here if need be? >> you see more of that bubbling over. as more information comes out and the information available from the cia assessment expands in the broader membership of the house and the senate, you'll see, i think, an increased appetite. i think the real challenge for the president is going to be it may, in fact, strategic relationships that you have. it's a big mistake for the president, white house security council to stick their head in this issue. i say that i mean arms sales, military assistance in yemen to saudi arabia and other relationships that intelligence services and others have in saudi arabia. >> chairman of the house intelligence committee. you dealt with issues like this all the time. if it puts u.s. national security at risk here, bec

he was speaking glowingly about the democrat when mike rogers was the chair on intel.ust need to let the truth guide us. remove the politics, especially from the intelligence committee. we need to work together, democrats and republicans. i don't think it's that hard. when you have reasonable people, i don't think it's that hard to do that. >> what do you think? that's -- from her mouth to god's ears, but i don't know. >> well, i just look at that time, you know, from the preside president's perspective. the president suffered some losses that were unforced errors. a lot of suburban republicans lost because of this president's hyperbole and combative tone. this is an opportunity for him to sort of take a step back and recognize this is going to affect his ability to win re-election. he cannot win states like pennsylvania and michigan and wisconsin and other states continuing this -- this harsh, combative attitude that turns off suburban voters. while at the same tight nme not appealing to minorities who should be voting for him based on his record of the economy hand h

president obama's former top adviser on homeland security including cybersecuri cybersecurity, and mike rogers different than the one we have today for the former chairman of the house committee of intelligence and my successor at the department of justice is ths the assistant attorney general for national security. they will have representatives including australia cyber ambassador to new zealand's director general. jeff brown and at the head of the joint artificial intelligence center brand him a cor.i would encourage you to register we would love to see you out there. this is all available i am pleased to introduce bruce snyder with his provocative ideas. they tried to get advice but here we are and i'm not sure if i totally agree with the title of the book that we all agree there are a lot of vulnerabilities right now. he's going to discuss his book click here to kill everybody and probably tell you where to click to order the book. we have the former site of advisor michael daniels and retired admiral this may be his first appearance and a former undersecretary department. >> it is a prov

. >> we are talking in the hallway he was speaking glowingly who was the democrat when mike rogers was chair on intell. we just need to threat truth guide us, remove the politics especially from the intelligence committee. i don't think it's that hard to do that. >> what do you think? that's from her mouth to -- i don't know. >> well, i just look at it from the president's perspective. the president suffered some losses that were unforced errors. they lost because of this and combative tone. this is an opportunity for him to sort of take a step back and recognize this is going to effect his ability to win reelection. he cannot win states like pennsylvania and michigan and wisconsin and other states continuing this harsh combative attitude that turns off suburban voters. at the same time not appealing to minorities who i think should be voting for him based on his record and what he is doing to create employment opportunities and better well being for them. so he has to do something to change his tone and what he has done coming out of the blocks is double down on that tone and that's j

let's discuss this now with mike rogers.essman, thank you for taking the time. >> thanks for having me. >> first your reaction to matt whitaker's appointment here. you are a republican, but you have been a defender of the special counsel robert mueller being able to complete his work. do you see matt whitaker's appointment as intention intended to somehow hinder the investigation? >> you know, boy, i hate to get there. this is somebody who has been a prosecutor and because he has public statements or public commentary is one set of facts. the fact that he is now the acting attorney general, you know, i would like to at least let him rise to the level before we jump to some conclusion that he is there specifically to undo the investigation. i think somebody has to have that opportunity. now, that said, i think this is right in line with the president's kind of impetuous, i pick that guy to do this job. i like something he said, whenever, ten minutes ago or two years ago. that's what get these folks in trouble. i'm telling you

state of capitol hill and where the conversation goes forward, cnn national security commentator mike rogers is here and tony blinken is former deputy secretary of state under president obama. thank you both so much for being here. as we watch this classified briefing getting underway on the hill, i do remember me waiting for you outside of a classified briefing. you have been in many classified briefings with players like this. what should the senators be able to get out of this today? >> hopefully they will get out what the administration agenda and policy is towards both yemen and saudi arabia on a strategic level as well as the components of the khashoggi murder. really two different things. they will have to find a way to deal with the murder, they being the u.s. government, the administration and congress. and then they will have to make a case to the senators about why they need to either continue this strategic relationship with saudi arabia and why that is important. they better go into detail or they are going to lose senators and find themselves doing some things that probably wou

. >> president and ceo of the wilson wenter and mike rogers, the former house intel chairman.should the cia director have been part of this meeting? >> you bet. i can't recall a briefing like this where the head of the intelligent community, whoever it was, wasn't present. and i think she wasn't there because i know that's where you're going because her agency has expressed high confidence. and in cia speak, certainty would be a little far, but assurance that nbs directed the killing. and it put the other two, our secretary of state who used to be cia director, and our secretary of defense in an awkward position. mike pompeo, when asked about this, said i was directed to be here. never answered the question about why she wasn't there. >> that is exactly right. mike, we have not been able to get any real answers about why she wouldn't be included. what does that tell you? >> clearly i don't think they wanted her there. they didn't want to open her up to all the senate. it was all the senate. they didn't want people asking questions that might not be consistent with where the ad

president asked him, and also the head of the national security agency, head of the nsa, admiral mike rogers, nbc reported that the president asked them both to make public statements saying that they and their agencies knew that president trump and his captain pain h -- his campaign hadn't colluded with russia. the day before that nine-second pause, nbc reported that not only had president trump directed him as the director of national intelligence and also the head of the nsa to make those public statements to undermine the russia investigation, but also the two of them, head of the nsa, head of the office of the director of national intelligence, the two of them talked to each other about that request from the president. sort of compared notes after the president approached them both. >> i'll ask both of you the same question, why are you not answering these questions? is there an invocation by the president of the united states of executive privilege, is there or not? >> not that i'm aware of. >> why are you not -- >> i feel it is inappropriate, senator. >> what you feel isn't relevant,

dialogue, jeff, march, you have the outgoing commander of cyber command and incoming commander, mike rogers and paul, separate points in front of the armed service committee and in the intelligence committee being asked by senators, well, you said the president hasn't give you specific directions but he if he the asnt she what can i , what would you do? and both of their answers were,, separately, outgoing, incoming, was they had not paid a high enough cost of we need to impose costs on the russians. which is not at all defending against the russians. they obviously would be in favor of defending but that's not what they're proposing. they were proposing costs, more action. and as cybercom commander they were in essence asking for political and legal guidance above the normal threshold of cyber espionage, but below the threshold of what anyone would define as armed conflict. in other words, a very aggressive, cost imposing strategy against the russians, not preventing them from doing what they do, but making them come to their own conclusion it was probably a bad idea. >> the other aspect o

where democrats and republicans would sign off on investigations together, what it was like under mike rogers, former republican congressman, or is he going to be as partisan for the democrats as devin nunes has -- was for the republicans? that's a choice the congressman, soon to be chairman adam schiff will have in front of him. >> you know elliot engle is going to be chair of the house foreign affairs committee. he's a feisty democrat as well from new york. >> he is. >> and adam smith, he's going to be chairman of the armed services committee. pretty feisty as well. >> that's right. but again, kind of going back to the future a little bit, on those national security committees both of those democrats have a history of working in a bipartisan way. elliott engel does, adam smith does on important issue. foreign policy and of national security. and it's hard to imagine them not doing that now. particularly eliott engel who's been around a long time and has been waiting to get the gavel of a committee. but your adam schiff note is very important. it's going to be a question of whether he puts h

[applause] >> thank you very much, harvey, for your introduction, and it's just terrific to be here today. i look out in the audience and see lots of friends and colleagues in the national security sector, and it's great, on a personal level, just for me to see so many folks from my own agency, so thank you. this is a terrific conference, terrific people, great day and a half in front of us, and i'd like to express my gratitude to the standing committee and to cindy and harvey for having me here. i very much appreciate it. i was a little concerned about how my speech would be received today, and i note that despite my specific request, the desserts are of a size that can be thrown.

>> mike schmidt, it's a great point about roger stone. you can almost hear donald trump's -- if roger stone is to be indicted as a lot of people suspect he may be, you can almost hear the white house response, well, he was hardly involved. we hardly knew him. but you've reported that mueller has questions for the president about wikileaks. one of the questions that mueller has as they've shared with his lawyers is for the president, what did you know about communications between roger stone, his associates, julian asank sange or wikileaks. this goes straight to their questions about what the president knew about this effort, this russian effort to help the trump campaign. >> that's the big question that hangs over this that we don't have an answer to. what did the president know about this? did he have any advanced knowledge from stone, from anyone nels the campaign about what was to come? and there's these major questions that still hang over the investigation. that being one of them that, you know, mueller is still looking at. how much

there's undeniable, mike and his colleagues have reported on contacts between roger stone an bannon. the president has known roger stone for many, many years. and it's no obstruction, that donald trump tweets alms exactly right. we will hear from the president, oh, i fired roger stone from the campaign and he worked for me years and years ago. the truth is they go back decades and worked together for a long time. and the question will be, if roger stone is indicted for something on the collusion side of the investigation, the conspiracy side of the investigation, the question will be, is it just him conspire, with julian assange and potentially others to release stolen and hacked e-mails? or was he working with someone on the trump campaign? was he in contact with the president or the president's son? he was in contact with steve bannon. were there contacts other than those reported by "the new york times"? we'll have to wait for the mueller investigation to tell us. >> because we can bet that robert mueller does. mike schmidt, frank figliuzzi, matt miller, thank you for starting us

i'm mike emanuel in for bret bai baier. there's no worries tonight. roger stone says he's talking with robert mueller's team about a plea deal. what jerome corsi knows is not clear tonight. what is clear, it's not good news for mr. trump. kevin corke is outside the president's florida resort tonight. good evening, kevin. >> jerome corsi have not directly tied to president trump. as you mentioned, he's an associate of roger stone that was a trump adviser in 2016. what we do know as he continues to possibly create a situation that could lead to a plea deal with the mueller team is throughs worthy and may not be good news nor the president. >> the written answers to the witch hunt that's been going on, they're finished. >> the president is steadfast in his denial of russian collusion connected to his campaign, the special counsel's continues to tighten the net on a number of individuals that were close to the trump orbit. the latest, jerome corsi is in talks with the mueller team about a plea deal. it's part of an investigation with stone's connections to wiki

i'm mike emanuel in for bret bai baier. there's no worries tonight. rogertone says he's talking with robert

mike jones. we read in "usa today" calling it complete hypocrisy, roger goodell, this is what dan snyder said atire washington redskins organization strongly endorses goodell's efforts to eradicate domestic abuse and the independent investigation into the ray rice situation. the obvious question is, what changed in four years? what changed? >> well, what changed is a valuable potential football player. a young man with promise on the football field. which i even hesitate to say those words, brooke, because it's that we should so not care about that. we should care about this woman who was attacked repeatedly. but that he is a good enough player that they can -- they think they can use him. >> you're saying the reaction so different. >> indeed. >> and that is the positive in this whole thing. >> absolutely. the take-away here, if you're looking for something good, is that the way people around washington, d.c., the way the community, the way the media, it has been absolutely unanimous, brooke. and it has been condemnation of the highest order against washington's football team and the fact they w

. >> i want to see serena williams and roger federer. with mikes on.e would be fascinating. i think you could do interesting things >> you could do a three-set sort of -- yeah >> anyway, we'll take a commission on that >> maybe you get to go or something. >> no. i was just -- >> just go you're cheap >> we have news for you this morning. president trump saying it is highly unlikely the u.s. would hold off on -- >> president trump was really making two different threats in that interview first he said as you mentioned it's highly unlikely that he would hold off hiking on $200 billion of china imports on january 1. second, trump said that if he and president xi can't work out a deal this week, he will push ahead with another amount of tariffs on the rest of the goods we import from china they would also get hit with a 10% or 25% tax you also mentioned apple and the iphone clearly that stock saw a big move after the journal posted its story. it's the reporter who brought up the iphone as a potential target president trump responded saying maybe it would ge

. >> well, yeah, because they both highlight this, which is we know roger stone, corsi and while it is a separate element, look, mikenn has pled guilty and is cooperating. rick gates as pled guilty and is cooperating. paul manafort still pled guilty. he's not cooperating. we know that there is lots of people in this orbit who we strongly suspect in some cases, like the ones who have pled guilty, we know they are either lying about what they knew and what they were doing or we have strong suspicions about what they were doing. what we don't have yet beyond the meeting in june with donald trump jr., jared kushner, manafort and the russians, we don't have anything that says kushner was directing this. donald trump jr. is directing this. donald trump himself knew about it. because, remember, donald trump, he kind of goes all over the place in his rhetoric. but when he is at his finest rhetorical point he says, i didn't collude. there was no collusion. so the danger here is he is walling himself off. and, so, you have to try to keep it away from him anything that gets anywhere near that i think bothers him personally and

2012, and victoria beckham said that is me done, i'm hanging up by mike, but there is no surprise that she has said no to this. rogere uk for now, they might do a worldwide tour. the six stadiums are in the uk, edinburgh, bristol, coventry sunderland, and magister. tickets are going on sale on saturday morning, so we have got to see how big a demand there is the them. —— and manchester. so it is quite easy to see how big —— forget how big they got at one stage. it was with nelson mandela? they were massive. their debut album sold 23 million albums worldwide, and to still the biggest debut album from a female group. they had a film that grossed 66 million us dollars that the box office. they were massive, ten yea rs the box office. they were massive, ten years ago, they sold out the 02, 18 times. it'll be a distinct and see if people still care. presumably the grand plan is notjust a uk tour, said ticket to the world afterwards after proving it works?” suspect they would like to go to america. scary spice is a judge on america's got talent. so it will be interesting to see where they take it around the world, and sca

mike, i'm in product development at comcast. we're working to make things simple, easy and awesome. >>> so was roger stone a criminal or was roger stone just boasting that he was a criminal? that is what the special prosecutor is investigating. "the new york times" is reporting that roger stone sold himself to the trump campaign as the pipeline to wikileaks, which was then trafficking in stolen e-mails from democrats in washington. "the new york times" published an extraordinary article today filled with e-mails to and from steve bannon and roger stone. "the times" says nothing about how they obtained these e-mails. are they stolen e-mails? roger stone doesn't think so. he issued a statement today blaming steve bannon or an associate of steve bannon who used to be an associate of roger stone for just giving these e-mails, offering them to "the new york times." roger stone said bannon or his hatchet man sam nunberg, who used to be stone's hatchet man, leaked this e-mail exchange to the various media outlets. now, this program has no history of trafficking in stolen e-mails. i did not read the e-mails that north korea stole from s

mike emanuel in for bret baer. new words from the president over special counsel investigation. a conservative writer and associate of trump roger stone says he's talking with robert mueller's team about a plea deal. exactly what jerome corsi knows and what it means for the president is not clear tonight. what is clear, it is not good news for mister trump. kevin cork is outside the president's florida resort. >> reporter: jerome corsi is not directly tied to donald trump but is an associate of roger stone who was a trump advisor in 2016. what we do know is as he continues to create a situation which could lead to a plea deal with the mueller team that is newsworthy and everyone can agree it may not be very good news for the president. >> the written answers to the witchhunt that has been going on forever, no collusion, no nothing. >> reporter: the president remained steadfast in denial of any russian collusion connected to his campaign the special counsel's office continues to tighten the net on a number of individuals close to the trump orbit. the latest, jerome corsi who like roger stone has been linked to the controversial w

roger stone and even donald trump jr. were handed down or something else. joining us at the table, mikephy, republican strategist and former campaign adviser for george w. bush, mitt romney, john mccain, everybody nels the world. jeremy bash still with us. guys, we've sat here in america land as the kavanaugh hearings played out, midterm elections played out. mueller not stopping his work but in the background doing whatever he's doing. the one thing prediction, jeff sessions going, has happened. the other thing we're waiting for is the possibility that bob mueller, that the indictments, he doesn't do indictments but as a result of the investigation we'd see indictments. mia, is there -- if whitaker is a trump stooge designed to knee-cap mueller -- >> if? >> if that's the case. if there are sealed indictments that exist already out of the grand jury teed up of any of these people -- stone, donald trump jr., anyone, is there anything whitaker could do to stop the indictments? >> he can. the short answer it depends if they'd already been approved and moved forward through rod rosenstein b

mike emanuel in for bret baier. there are new worries tonight over the special counsel investigation, a conservative writer and associate of trump lawyer rogertone says he's talking about a plea deal. and exactly what corsi knows and what it means for the president tonight. it's not good news for president trump. correspondent kevin corke is outside the florida resort tonight. >> jerome corsi is not directly tied to president trump but he is an associate of roger stone who is a trump advisor back in 2016. what we do know is he continues to possibly create a situation that could lead to a plea deal, certainly that is newsworthy and i think everyone can agree, it may not be very good news for the president. >> president trump: the written answers to the witch hunt that's been going on forever, no collusion, no nothing, they've been finished. >> while the president remains steadfast in his denial of any collusion, the special counsel's office continues to tighten the net on a number of individuals who were close to the trump orbit. the latest, jerome corsi who like roger stone has been linked to the controversial website infowars and has been i

mike meyers says he was awfully well informed for a security guard? how else could she have known about this? but the timing seems eerily close and roger has not provided anything that absolves this. >> in all of this, the "guardian" says he met with julian assange in the spring of 2016, at the same time he would become the trump campaign manager and chairman. when you put all this together manafort's denying this, julian assange is denying this. when you put it altogether, what does it say to you? >> i think the important thing is the "guardian" reporting says manafort was there three times, allegedly meeting with assange three times, at least twice for the government of ukraine that was put in by the russian government so there are deep connections to the russians to begin with on the first two. if it turns out to be true that he was there at that point in time, to me, if you think about the mueller investigation, it's sort of a three legged stool. one part is the russian government hacking e-mails. another is wikileaks releasing them. the final part, we've had a lot of reporting, but no firm evidence of the connections. we got piece

mike. a very good friend of mine, he is always there, he is always available, and he's very smart. he loves the people of mississippi. he loves the people of our country. senator rogeryou, roger. great job. and a man that did so well recently, it will go down for a long time, you're going to be seeing those words. they were beautiful words, and they were needed very desperately at that time. brett kavanaugh was being treated very unfairly, very, very unfairly. and lindsey graham got up and he hit a chord that you hit very rarely in the world of politics or anything else. the meaning of what he said really changed the course of that event, and now we have a great, great supreme court justice, brett kavanaugh. lindsey graham. thank you. thank you, lindsay. he really did, that was very special. we are all here tonight to support an amazing leader and a tremendous champion for this great state, a woman who went to washington. she has been there now for a short time as your senator, but she is respected by all. some long-term senators have been down there, they told me this is a woman that gets it. she is smart, she is tough, and she loves you. cindy hyde-smith, we have

mike, i'm in product development at comcast. we're working to make things simple, easy and awesome. >> welcome back. kate rogers john's >> i caught myself >> what can we expect? >> we expect it to be a tough third quarter for papa john's. it will be same store sales in north america. that number expected to fall 10.7%. it is a bit more than the 10.5% drop another will be the amount of cash it spent so far and on legal fees it is as papa john's is in feud who is the company's founder papa john's allocated for a franchise. back over to you >> all right thank you. >>> let's get to frank for what to expect from match group, frank. >> strong year for match up more than 62% it is forecasting more than 80% increase revenue forecast not quite as optimistic 438 million, a 27% increase. the best known tinder has been the driving growth and match reported 3.8 total users almost doubling the total from the previous year. back to you. >> let's get to more on what to expect >> investors want to know how the online real estate firm is holding up analysts will be on the look out for any commentary into the buying and selling o

roger stone, who is a longtime associate of the president. we know rick gates, who was working for the campaign in the transition is still cooperating. mike flynn hasn't been sentenced yet for his guilty plea. those are just the things we know about with bob mueller. there's a whole bunch of stuff that you can imagine we don't know about. so the white house, trump in particular, has really been bracing for mueller to come back. and it's that unknown that really unnerves the president. there's so much that he tries to push back on, but again, so much that he doesn't know, and that's really out of his control at this point. >> so if it is out of his control, nia, if the reporting is that he's pissed at everybody, who or what do you venture to guess will get him back on track? back on track in the most immediate sense is he's about to face a democratic majority in the house. there is some stuff he needs to be doing and preparing for. >> that's right. there isn't a lot of good news ahead for this president in terms of what's going to be happening. not only the mueller probe and probably some report released about that, but also democrats are

mike flynn being, heading for sentencing on december 18th. we appear to be at the end of the road for jerome corsi and roger stone and of course the president has turned in his answers to the questions that he would answer. you know, just right before the thanksgiving. we seem to be at the final road for the -- the enof the road if for the mueller investigation. increasingly it feels to me like a race. can mueller finish what he's doing, either with guilty pleas or indictments or some kind of public report, maybe all the above, before the president somehow interferes with that investigation, either through intervention by the acting attorney general he's put in place a the justice department or by reaching out through a pardon or without a pardon, a promise of a pardon that leaves someone like paul manafort to not answer all the questions in his cooperation truthfully. it leads to someone like jerome corsi backing out from his, you know, the plea agreement that's been in the works. one of the interesting things i think over the last few days, so both paul manafort and jerome corsi's attorneys have been communicating with rudy giuliani. giuliani

mike allen from axios. the appropriations committee isn't the only one planning to take aim at the president, his family and administration. i'm joined by illinois democratic congressman roger christian moriarty. he's over the house committee. good evening. glad to have you with us. >> good evening, ali. thanks for having me. >> there are a majority in the democratic house, some which have to do with immigration, some that have to do with tax returns, some that have to do with values. where do you put your emphasis? >> i think the american people wanted the democrats to be in charge of the house for two reasons, one, to hold the white house blaccountable and the administration accountable, especially for this corruption that's taking place in the agencies. also they wanted to get something done and hopefully work with the other side on certain issues like drug price reform or infrastructure. i think we have to do both, but from the oversight standpoint, we definitely have to hold the white house accountable at this point. >> what's your biggest priority in terms of holding the white house accountable? >> for the last two years, i've been beating the drum on the issue of sec

recordings of calls between roger stone and the president discussing e-mails, all of these pieces come into sharper focus now that mueller has his hands on trump's written responses. >> mike schmidt, take us through what you and your colleagues have reported last night about the president's flow of information from manafort's lawyers, even after manafort had agreed to cooperate and i guess a nonlawyer would assume that meant be helpful to the mueller probe. that wasn't the case. >> yeah, so there was a pipeline from kevin downing, manafort's lawyer, to rudy giuliani. and this really helped give the president's legal team insight into what was going on. and this also helped certainly led to the president becoming agitated. the president knew that the prosecutors were really hammering on manafort. and specifically on the question of the trump tower meeting. what did they -- they were going to manafort and saying, what did the president know about this? did he know about it before? did he know about it afterwards? and what giuliani says is that, when they got answers from manafort that they didn't like, when manafort said he didn't know anything about this, he put him back i
