mr. -- john kiriakou, the question is a sod is the only one person standing between i'm from thed -- region. i am from their. re. christians have been living there for centuries now, more than 2000 years ago. wasey christianity i think created there. -- do you think only now they survived more horrible -- than assad? mr. kiriakou: i don't disagree with you. i think christianity has done very well in syria. al-assad is bashar a dictator, anti-democrat, but the truth is with the players on the eel now, he is the 1 -- on the yield now, he is the one that gives christians the chance of having a thriving community. if you look at the alternatives, never minding the notion that the united states remotes that that somehowomotes magically this is going to come together and everybody will live in peace and harmony, that will simply not happen, but the or some als are isis organization, or assad. of this choices, i think those are the realistic choices -- of those choices, the best is assad. as recently as 2012 or 2013, where there was talk of perhaps a syrian military pushing assad aside, the same t

john. our next speaker is matthew ho. mr. ho is a former state department official who resigned in his post in afghanistan over strategic policy and goals in that country. he resigned in september 2009. it is worth noting that the council on foreign relations has cited his resignation letter as an essential document in the history of the war in afghanistan. prior to diplomatic assignment, he served two deployments as a marine in iraq. i should mention that matthew, like john is on the advisory board for the program at the institute for public accuracy which has been in this building in the national press club facility for 18 years. i am the executive director of the institute for public accuracy. here now is matthew hope. >> thank you norman. i want to begin my remarks by noting that we have a new chief of staff in the white house and one of my concerns over these past many years of our campaigns and our wars in the middle east, over what really is the most accurate way of many people in the middle east has been the misrepres

john: i think it is pretty clear that mr. bannon was asked to leave the white house, you know, this is definitely the new chief of staff, general john kelly, this is his second big personnel move and it has his fingerprints all over it. it happened a little later than a lot of, even republican lawmakers wanted. they felt it needed to happen a little bit faster, earlier in the week after charlottesville and the far right, the white supremacist groups, that band and had at least -- bannon had at least some ties to and had pushed some of the same ideas of these groups, not all of the ideas of these groups, but there were similar strains in what he had written and said over the years, especially working at breitbart. so general kelly, it appears others in the inner circle as well, convinced the president after charlottesville and of course mr. bannon, perhaps had an off record chat with a reported this week in which he said he wanted democrats and the political space to be talking and thece, because -- sense is, it became too much

. >> i have a question for mr. john kiriakou. assad is the only one person standing between christians and -- i'm from the region. i am from there. christians have been living there for centuries now, more than 2000 years ago. actually christianity i think was created there. why do you think only now -- why didn't they face it before? they survived more horrible rulers than assad. mr. kiriakou: i don't disagree with you. i think that christianity has done very well in syria under assad. politics aside, i think that bashar al-assad is a dictator, anti-democrat, but the truth is with the players on the field now, he is the one that gives christians the chance of having a thriving community. if you look at the alternatives, never minding the notion that the united states promotes that somehow magically this is going to come together and everybody will live in peace and harmony, that will simply not happen, but the alternatives are isis or some al qaeda related organization, or assad. and of this choices, i think those are the realis

our good friend, mr. john will be with us in a second, at least a tweet. there's more fog than yesterday. it burned off fast yesterday and for some areas never saw the fog. santa cruz and santa cruz mountains. good morning. 60 and a nice breeze overcast here in cambrian park. there's low clouds from sunnyvale to saratoga and campbell and evergreen and the temperatures, i don't think he wouldn't make this up. they're in the low 60s. 62 santa clara. 59. campbell 6 2. said towing -- yesterday it was easterly and that chewed up that fog. you get that south wind and this time of year, that's a cooler direction with fog from much of santa cruz and the santa cruz mountains. that's why it's filled in. this is a pattern that can be cooler for the north bay, santa rosa. they get that south wind and there goes the fog and low clouds. out to the straight and then up the napa valley and toward the snowman and santa rosa. it looks like around dylan beach, it pulls off. it's sneaking back near the rushing river. to the north it's patchy. west, southwest, breezy. 50s and

john kelly. kelly has told mr. trump's top staff that he will not tolerate mr.adow land -- the paper reports that rupert merdock told kelly and -- that bannon had to go. now, this was before the president went to his bedminster golf course for vacation. here's what former white house communications director anthony scaramucci said last night about bannon and the ouster of reince priebus. >> this is you over here holding your thumbs in your belt like a gun slinger, and this is reince priebus. what is going on? were you brought in just to get rid of him? >> hmm, i don't want to say that. >> and sean spicer. >> say it like the muuc. give me some muuc here. >> the muuc of long island would say there is no love lost there. look at the picture. >> you thought he was one of the leakers? >> i did. >> he is gone. right? who is leaking now? is it steve bannon? >> well, i've said that. i mean, i've been pretty open about that. let me -- >> is steve bannon -- a leaker? >> i said he was. i got caught on tape saying he was, so have i no problem saying that. >> is he going to

charlie: what can we say about day two of the chief of staff john kelly? mr. cker: john kelly made it clear that there is a new sheriff in town and made it clear by getting rid of anthony scaramucci. my sources are telling me there is a sense of new order and structure and rigor inside the west wing. i think kelly is making all the staff report to him and cutting off this breezy free flow access into the oval office, trying to instill discipline around the president. it's unclear if he will be able to discipline the president himself, but certainly the advisers and aids are getting in line at the moment to try to give kelly a chance to make things right. charlie: including the family. mr. rucker: including the family as far as i know. you know, he found the trump tweeted up -- ivanka picture tweeted a picture saying she was pleased to be working alongside him. that is very different than working for him. the structure has her and jared kushner reporting to the chief of staff. but of course, they will have their own unique individual access to the president bein

mr. bush: john paul? mr. clinton: yes. and he had an 85% approval rating, and 99% name recognition. mr.h: that is called suicide. mr. clinton: i was zero and he beat me 51-48. by about three points. it was one of the best things that ever happened to me. we wound up being friends too. but this district we ran in had the highest amount of gasoline se per registered vehicle in america because it was so rural nd all on hilly roads. and you had to do stuff people don't do anymore. your television ads did not amount to anything if you did not do retail campaigning. and i learned 75% of what i know about politics in that first ace. david: at that time hillary clinton. hillary rodham then came down to help you with the campaign. did you think she was going to stay down in arkansas and marry you? because, you know, arkansas was not considered, in her world, the place that was the center of the universe exactly. r. clinton: i did not, no. look, i had it one step at a time. i had already asked her twice to marry me and she said no both times. smart girl. so the third time, i told her, just come d

. >> with us here today we have hallie jackson, mike barnicle, mr. john heilemann, noah ottmron with a great piece out today pleasing no one, and combat veteran wes moore. good morning, everyone. let's dive into it. >> after almost 50 hours in the making, president obama denounced racist groups by name. >> the department of justice has opened a civil rights investigation into the deadly car attack that killed one innocent american and wounded 20 others. to anyone who acted criminally in this weekend's racist violence, you will be held fully accountable. justice will be delivered. racism is evil, and those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the kkk, neonazis, white supremacists and other hate groups who are repugnant to everything we hold dear as americans. >> the a.p. reported several of trump's senior advisers, including new chief of staff john kelly, have urged him to make and determination. much of the criticism came from the party, particularly senator tim scott. after signing a memorandum on trade policy later in the af

let's discuss this further now in cross live to our guest political commentator john why it's mr y. it's always good to have you on the program now as we've just heard this that testimony of a former syrian rebel do you think what he's saying is plausible. well it's certainly possible because if true this kind of activity is absolutely nothing new here the u.s. is concerned. that u.s. history throws up the fact that the u.s. was providing covert support for the commuter route in the late one nine hundred seventy s. after they were kicked out of vietnam across the border into thailand by the vietnamese military forces they also provided support for contra gross who were fighting to soviet leftist governments in nicaragua and el salvador and central america and of course we provided. support for the mujahideen in afghanistan then into need to so this is nothing new so it certainly is possible and what it does do is it an extra dimension to the u.s. here strakes as it were conducted against proceeding government forces as they are pushed back in june of this year suggesting that rather

mr. cook: john goosey from "newsmax." mr. goosey: thank you for having the breakfast today. i would like to pick up on what mayor landrieu said about services being cut. law enforcement aside, relief for people, and helping the homeless problem. have they been hurt by cuts? more importantly, are private sector charities -- the salvation army, united way, catholic charities picking up the slack in any way in your cities? mayor landrieu: i know each one of the mayors has something to say about this as well, but i will take the first crack. we are always better, always, when we are together. we are always better when the federal government, the state government, the local government, the non-for-profits, the faith-based community -- all the people of the table assume responsibility and doing their part. that is always better. each one of the models in our cities relies on all those different community organizations. when one of us does not show up, somebody has to pick up the slack or somebody who is given an opportunity is not going to have it. that is the general rule. it is
