i think we're seeing it playing out in the national security council right now, k.t. mcfarland keeps surviving the repeated efforts to banish her and what it sounds like donald trump keeps intervening although she seems to have very few supporters and she's a former flynn person and there are a couple of other flynn -- national security council. on some level, flynn's influence persists and trump isn't willing to admit he made this mistake. i think it's always worth zooming out when we're talking about michael flynn. you talk about when we think about barack obama's admonition to trump not to hire flynn, this was more than what he said about his contacts with the russian ambassador. there was a really wide consensus in the national security foreign policy establishment, this guy was not the right fit for his job. he had been fired from his job at the defense intelligence agency. people who knew him said he changed and maybe blown a sprocket a little bit. the guy seemed to be in over his head for the job, even chris christie, when he was still running the transition, d

south korea's new president, moonjae—in, has ordered a meeting of the national security council. go live to seoul and speak to the bbc‘s steve evans. what has been the reaction so far to the latest provocation? condemnation by clearly. the national security council in south korea is going to meet. really, it's like groundhog day. this is the third missile since the new president took over here in south korea. it is a missile launch a week. the significant thing is that he came to power, promising a softer approach, saying dialogue was the way of defusing the situation and does not appear to have had any response from the north apart from continued missile tests. if you are looking at his incoming administration, offering a more hopeful way, there does not appear to have been any favourable response from the north. what we now know is that north korea is getting much, much better at launching missiles. these missiles are medium—range. they are not missiles capable of reaching the continental mainland united states but they can reach clearly the whole of this region. japan, south k

: already, japan and the united states, and many other countries through the united nations security council resolution have been applying pressure on north korea. china constitutes more than 80% in overall trade with north korea. china has a responsibility. i think we will be able to bring a solution to the question of north korea. is, about north korea, it importing -- china has stopped importing coal from north korea, but there are many other things china can do. so, we would like to have -- encourage china to properly execute its responsibility and we are watching closely. and there have been the missiles launched by north korea recently. this is a very high level launch. it has warheads, what-- is happening to the missile is to be assessed. that is how we assess the situation. might technology offered progress and we are very concerned with this. such concern at the g7 summit meeting i would like to share this concern so that we can put strong pressure on north korea. when the test is conducted, we need additional sanctions to be applied through the united states, united nations securit

we are learning south korean officials will convene a meeting of the national security council. that will happen shortly. officials will be trying to analyze what projectiles was launched in what is a long string of provocations from pyongyang. all we hear it is some kind of projectile, but to put this into context, we know that pyongyang has fired off nearly a dozen ballistic missiles. we we heard here just at the start of the trump administration if this was a ballistic missile they attempted to launch, officials will be trying to determine how successful the launch was and what exactly they put up there. again, this comes one week after a very successful launch from north korea, was just last sunday we saw the launch and missile that landed closer to russia than japan. at the time analysts weighed in and said this was a projectile that appeared to have flown at a higher altitude and farther, that led analysts to conclude north korea has taken a significant step forward in terms of developing an intercontinental ballistic missile. >> that is, of course, north korea to develop

that when he became national security adviser, flynn was required to obtain a new white house security clearance under the auspices of the cia, which vets national security councilees. that clearance was never granted before he was pushed out of the job. one official with knowledge of matter said. we're back with our panel,. of course he would have had to go through the process again at a much stricter level from the clearance that he had at that point in time. >> yes. and it's amazing that he never finished his security clearance forms and trump let him have access to all this classified anyway, which makes the warning by president obama and sally yates all the more stark. we have to understand who the national security adviser is. they have access to all the intelligence streams coming into the president. they're approving covert actions that the white house might be interested in. this is someone who has access to the most sensitive information for our country. and he was in contact with the russians. and the trump administration did not seem to care. >> the president has been tweeting a lot today. before the hearing, he tweeted ask sally yates under oath if

the best practices seem to exist that involves the national security council not having the russians handle the security of the conversations. which is again the possible outcome that was proposed in the "post." i think the question really for congress is what to you do if those so-called best practices aren't being followed? the other thing i want to ask you -- >> remember the purported contact took place prior to this administration, apparently prior to this administration taking office. so you're in this weird world where you're in a transition, you've got people who are not practiced and perhaps not schooled in how we ordinarily do these things. >> point taken. final question to you on these investigations. the senate now going to the wider trump campaign. what is your view of that and how wide is your inquiry going to go? should it involve the whole trump campaign? >> well, of course it should. i'm sort of surprised that this is a story. the question is, the question -- there's a couple of questions before the investigation. one is, what was the nature of the russian hack? how di

>> well, it's no secret steve ban none was kicked off the national security council and is one of the has frustrations with mcmaster but i can tell you i won't discuss my anom mouse sources. the concerns are broader than steve ban non steve bannon. he is somebody who very much is the kind of national security leader that many of us in the media admire. he speaks truth to power. that's earned him enemies within the army. plenty of people don't like mcmaster's style and that style has served him very well. he's probably one of the best commanders of a generation. at the same time he's playing in a very different league right now. i would say it's not just about steve bannon versus mcmaster. there are others who have a lot of frustrations with him at this point. none of this means, as i had in my story a quote from donald trump who said i'm happy with h.r. at this point and i included that, so i don't think he will be fired or anything like that. it's one of those second notebook stories i've been following for a month and put it all down in that column. it's a very real thing. >> thank

there have been individuals on the trump national security council put there by general flynn who haveinse had to leave their jobs because they could not get a security clearance, and they could not get that security clearance, one can only presume, because it's an apolitical process that does not allow interference from politicians of any stripes. >> the other piece is the difference between a security clearance renewed in january through april of 2016 and then he was in the campaign and the like. and what he would have had to be subjected to to be cleared to be national security adviser, if they had been doing it properly. i know they did it, but my information was it was perfunctory, they were aware of his involvement with turkey, but they overlooked it, they didn't think it was substantively a problem. >> a vetting would need to occur of any senior official who would be appointed to a post, certainly in the white house, but also all throughout the government. and i understand the case to be as well that mike flynn both had a security clearance and was vetted. the question then becomes,

the national security council? this place -- right now there is no security. national or otherwise in the white house. randy: you are absolutely right. you are seeing a white house debill 8 by the constant leaking and it's completely unacceptable. most of those folks are my friend. but this is completely unacceptable. there is no reason why you can't find when you have got a few night group of people in the meeting, the person who actually leaked the notes. at some point we owe it to this president to consistently drum beat to say you need to clean house. you are going to have to make some tough choices and get some people out of there. lou: do you have any names? can you be straightforward? it's clear as speaker of the house who has a existence and relationship with the president is not, if actual forgive my saying so, reliable. the majority leader of the united states senate is basically missing in action. meanwhile, the president is not being served by the very people he appointed. he made compromises to bring in reince priebus he made all sorts of compromis

>> well, there was a national security council meeting as soon as that launch was known about.e had condemnation from the government calling this a severe threat to the peace and stability not only of the korean peninsula, but also around the world, that coming from the foreign ministry. but we have as you say a new president in south korea just a few weeks into the job, a liberal candidate, and he has said that he wants dialogue with north korea, he has said that he supports more engagement with north korea. but bear in mind in the three weeks that he has been president here, there has been a missile launch every single week. so certainly it's difficult to see how that can move forward, how he could have that engagement with north korea that he has said that he would like. and certainly we've seen condemnation from around the region once again with north korea's missile launch. the missile itself at this point is believed to be a scud missile, it's not known exactly what kind of scud. this is a short range missile. so not one of the missiles that is more concerning to the regi

explanation as to why if this was all above board and not problematic in any way, why did the national security council coming out of this meeting feel it was necessary to contact the cia director and the director of the national security agency to give them a heads-up on what trump had just told the russians? >> now, that "washington post" report has now been confirmed by "the new york times," the "wall street journal," reuters and buzzfeed. but in the hours after the "post" report, the white house response was, well, mostly confused. before mcmaster spoke, the administration issued sever statements, mostly focuses on those sources and methods which this report did not address. one statement from secretary of state rex tillerson caught the state department even by surprise. it issued its own similar statement 20 minutes later, after seeing tillerson's statement on cnn. >> classified information at the center of this controversy involves isis plans to use laptop computers as bombs to take down airplanes. cnn first reported in april that u.s. intelligence agencies discovered terror groups were developin

of staff, you need the combatant and field commander on one side and the national security adviser and national security council and ultimately the commander in chief, the president himself, to make these decisions. they have to be done within the national security council. they have to have a functioning interagency discussion with the state department, the intelligence community, bringing all players to the table and hammer it out. if the commander came forward with a request with 3,000 or 3500 or 4,000 troops if auto i were the national security adviser i would ask what for, what are your missions, where will the troops be deployed and once the president is satisfied let the secretary of defense deploy the forces. >> we have to take a break. next we will turn to health care. a big debate. we will talk about those 13 senators meeting today to decide the fate of republicans' plan to repeal and replace obamacare. look at that shot right there. wow. 13 dudes. and a republican congressman gets up and walks out of a tv interview a minute after it began. what made him so angry. before we go, jimmy fallon, not jimmy

national security and avoiding armageddon. that was a case where this worked. a case where it did not work was in the middle of the 1980s when the national security council went rogue, went operational and through israelis tried to establish a secret channel to iranian moderates. we know how well that turned out. that led to iran contra. and this, however, i don't think is like the others. neither of those examples ever potentially included the enrichment of the first family. and also by my count, it never -- at least if the conversations as reported were never about entirely leaving them in the control of enemy intelligence. >> or a 36 year old real estate scion from new york married to the president's daughter. it is as if fdr's aid had married the president's daughter and been born into a great privilege in new york. >> right. and as we all know, as you say diplomacy is full of back channels and full of the great diplomatic chapters. the cuban missile crisis in many ways was resolved because there were conversations taking place outside the executive committee of the national security council in october of 1962. but that was about a very complicated and essentia
