>> when the former head of our national intelligence service, mr. clapper and when people of a quality of senator corker say that they're very apprehensive about the president having his hand on the nuclear code, it makes -- it should make all of us very nervous about what's happening in our country. i call upon the five former presidents, who are beyond ambition, who care only about their love for our country, to speak up and to get the country as alarmed as they should be about the current situation. >> tim, i want to bring you in here because some of the red flags that he points out, he says that president trump revealing highly classified information to foreign leaders, ignoring ethical principles, not condemning white supremists, pardoning sheriff joe arpaio and insulting our allice. you've been in the white house before. have you ever seen anything like this? that's for tim, but go on. >> mr. minnow has actually been in the white house. what senator corker, that is list of horribles, there's no doubt about it. but what senator corker said abou

sort of briefing paper that was submitted is a national intelligence estimate which is highly and should be highly embarrassing but there is no shame anymore in today's washington when it comes to all things russian but the problem is it's automatic assumption of guilt of anything that is russian so does that mean that everything that comes out of r t is propaganda does that mean every single person on r t is is viewing propaganda on behalf of the russian government this is what people in america believe this is what the new york times the washington post c.n.n. and most mainstream media outlets in america have been promulgating this idea they've thrown all journalistic standards completely out the window so everything that we've built up in civilization society in the last three hundred years has just been basically thrown out the window so no longer is the marketplace of ideas the best way to sort of get to the truth now they're going to put they want to put restrictions and labels on things in this case it's the excuse of russia and so this is where the america's at i don't think this

the director of national intelligence dan coats is having right now. what goes through your mind? and what are the actions that you're ordering the intelligence agencies to take? >> well, one incident that comes to mind by the boston marathon attack. and of course the first reports as we've seen here very graphically always some confusion and inconsistency. one key thing, i think, though, will happen is whether this person was on anyone's radar scope, either the fbi and/or nypd. and then, of course, the question is, well, how intrusive should law enforcement and/or intelligence be? whenever we have these incidents, the critique normally is we should have been more intrusive. there should have been more surveillance. this is exactly what happened after the boston marathon. of course, regrettably this method of operation now, a simple thing like a truck which can be turned into a terrorist weapon, and once again, it appears that we're seeing an example of that. >> and we're looking right now. the yellow on your screen, this is a map of lower manhattan. th

former director of national intelligence.ith facebook, google, these are the most popular digital platforms that most americans probably use every day. do they have reason to doubt what they're seeing on these platforms going forward? an element of doubt at least has been injected into this. >> absolutely. i think, first of all, let me preface, jim, the russians have a long history during the soviet era of interfering in elections. theirs in other peoples. and what is so dramatic about this case is because of all of these tools made available by the age of the internet that the russians have astutely applied. we addressed this sort of the tip of the iceberg in our intelligence community assessment that we published last january, and now the depth and the scope and the magnitude of this activity by the russians, targeting specific audiences and the whole objective here is to undermine confidence in our system. and they're succeeding in that. i worry about our general public awareness of this and what do we do about it. because

director of national intelligence jane clapper sent shock waves that a national security secured with his assertion in his worldwide threat assessment testimony to the senate armed services committee that genome editing has become a global danger. he went so far as to include it in the reports weapons of mass destruction section. he said since the discovery of double helix and all the rest, exceeding arguably any other technology in human history. biotech is a weapon of mass destruction? >> i think the statement is leaning towards biological weapons or future biological weapons could become the next strategic classic weapon, the way when nuclear weapons were first made we realize these are very different than a conventional bomb. what's different about them and what a think will be scared to think about policies and laws that govern them is that this s a strategic weapon that in many cases you could reverse the effect of, that you could pull the trigger and then unfolded trigger. i think -- on pole the trigger strategic weapons will have more likelihood of use. >> what are you talking

during this hour, with our guest, including the former general counsel for the director of national intelligence, bob lit. and our correspondents standing by. but first, the remaining hillary clinton e-mails, our chief political analyst gloria borger is working the story for us, gloria you're getting new information from your sources? >> yes, i am, wolf, president trump making it very clear to the state department he wants to accelerate the release of any remaining hillary clinton e-mails in his possession as soon as possible. we have this story from three sources. now this latest move as you know, from -- to the state department comes on the heels of the president lifting the gag order on an fbi informant, what do both of these things have in common? what they have in common is hillary clinton. people who work for the president say of course this is not politically motivated, that all he wants to do is be transparent, he wants his government to be very responsive to the courts and to the congressional branch of government. but of course, wolf, you have to wonder whether this is a white house th

russian meddling efforts in the 2016 election, top officials at the fbi, cia and director of national intelligence office discussed including parts in the official intelligence document. intelligence had quote concerns about that. quote, if that report included the dossier allegations, the intelligence community would have to say which agency corroborated and how. that would compromise sources and methods including information shared by foreign intelligence services. so there is is this dossier saying that the trump campaign and the russians were in cahoots involved in a conspiracy of operation to help put trump put a foreign thumb on the scale to get trump in office. you got to brief trump on how you found out what parts of that were true? who might he tell once you told him? okay. so in the end, they didn't put what they had learned from the dossier in their unclassified or classified report to protect the methodology they used to prove it. all right. they were trying to protect the fact the dossier had proven out when they checked it out, but parts of it at least proved out when they checked it

little bit under the radar in the last 24 hours that the general counsel of the office of national intelligencewho's the top lawyer there. he has come out and declared in very blunt terms that when the intelligence community put out its assessment that russia did attack our election, they didn't rely on the dossier to produce that report. they didn't use the dossier to produce that conclusion. robert lit was the top lawyer under the obama administration when that came out, he's in a position to know. he says they came to their conclusions about the russian involvement in the election based, quote, entirely on other sources and analysis. they didn't use the dossier, so that's important for the political maneuvering, the white house is trying to use this report as who funded fusion gps as a way of saying the whole story is some kind of hoax of russia interfering in the election. the logic is thin in that claim anyway. but among this fireworks show of scoops we've had in the past 24 hours is this news that the intelligence community came to its conclusions about what the russians did in our electi

the public report -- the report made public by the director of national intelligence, and that was released in january of this year, stated the intelligence community did not make an assessment of the impact that the russian activities had on the outcome of the 2016 election. that's a direct quote. so what's your reaction to the cia director drawing a different conclusion than that report? by the way, the cia later clarified what the conclusion of the national intelligence community was. >> his statement doesn't reflect the facts or the findings, and it also -- it actually only reflects the belief that the president has, which is, you know, not fully accepting the russians' role in interfering in our election. wolf, speaking of troops, i led a group in congress called future form. i've gone across the country with my colleagues. almost everywhere we go we talk to millennials who served in iraq and afghanistan. what they're so concerned about what russia did is that we are losing our freedom to choose. that's what they're fighting for is the freedom of democracy and free and fair elections.

former director of national intelligence james clapper joins us now. so, direct clapper, president trump today said that iran was violating the spirit of this agreement. when you had full access to intelligence, was that your assessment as well? and do we know, since the president took office, has that changed? >> i don't know exactly what that means. clearly there are ambiguities in the jcpoa, which we're sensitive to and the iranians are probably exploiting those ambiguities. but in large measure, as others have said, they are in material compliance with the agreement. so i think this has huge implications for us. one, i think, you know, the other members -- there were five other countries involved in this agreement. the other permanent members of the united nations security council, in addition to germany. and all of them are not going to decertify. i also think if the objective here is to put more pressure on iran, i think we're going to have great difficulty putting humpty-dumpty together again and reassembling the international coalition of sancti

joins me now james clapper, who was the director of national intelligence under president obama. ere's so much to discuss and so much coming out about these jfk documents tonight. one is from one of your predecessors in the intelligence community, richard hems, the man who was director under both president johnson and nixon. he says president johnson used to go around saying that the reason president kennedy was assassinated was that he had assassinated president dm and this was just justice. he certainly used to say that in the early days of had i see presidency and where he got this idea from, i don't know. is that folk lore, cia lore? what do you make of that? >> that's first heard from me. i never heard that before. you know, it's quite plausible that president johnson might have said it, but that's something i hadn't heard before. >> haven't heard it. so cia lore maybe or something like that. >> well, there was a different standard today about asass nations that be in the day. >> what do you mean? >> well, it's prohibited. we have an executive order that was originally signed

in january a report from the national intelligence council about russian interference with the u.s. presidential election said moscow's influence campaign included paid social media users or trolls. last week twitter and facebook admitted they sold hundreds of thousands of dollars in divisive and misleading ads during the campaign to russian linked trolls. state senator kevin de leon is the president pro tem of the senate and he said he values these companies. >> i wanted to go head first
