[ applause ] >> i think you should run for president again and i'll be your vice president. >> you said this weekend you don't know if you are emotionally prepared to run for president. >> i don't think any man or woman should run for president unless, number one, they know exactly why they would want to be president and, two, they can look at folks out there and say i promise you you have my whole heart, my whole soul, my energy and my pass

two weeks after i started working on the project, my brother, who is a navy s.e.a.l., had an injury andis neck. i got to see a spinal cord injury and what ekso could do to help that population. that coupled with doctors seeing what we were doing. they kept coming and asking us if we could help make a skeleton if it helps people walk again. rachel: is there any way that i could test out the technology? katherine strausser: we always start with a walker. it gives us the most stability. rachel: ok. katherine: the first thing we have to do is stand up. the robot will do all of the work for you for your legs. so your knees and your hips will be taken care of. 1, 2, 3. rachel: whoa! wow, that is such a weird sensation. it feels like it weighs nothing. russ: exactly. all the weight of the ekso goes down around the side of your body all the way to the ground. you do not feel anything. if i am a spinal cord injury patient today, and i have completely no control on my lower legs, the ekso skeleton is a great tool for helping them walk through a specified gait pattern. you are walking. as you prog

a former navy s.e.a.l., carl higgby on what we're doing. what do you do in this case?our heart tugs one way but your brain tugs another because you know remember a number in that number who are dangerous. >> your brain tugs one way and also the economic situation tugs another way. half a million people going into the european union recently. europe cannot sustain those kinds of immigrants. a lot need to fall on the social programs. there is going to be aid and national funding to keep these guys fed and housed and everything like that. you also have 70% of these refugees are considered, you know, males, military-age males. that doesn't seem like them fleeing. it seems like they're invading. >> the descriptions we're hearing is that assad wanted to butcher these people, was going after these people. and millions of them fled even before he would be given the chance. so they're seeking out a haven. isn't that what castro did when he opened up his prisons and mental hospitals and threw them all at us? >> what we need to look at here too is the fact that these people -- ev

their picture with me so i asked a questions in the first i said what made you want to become a navy s.e.a.l., sense of adventure family tradition chance to see the world, physical challenge, what was it in the first s.e.a.l. says oh no man -- they get it. >> even with a beard and a said yeah they get it. the second s.e.a.l. i said when you're going, preparing to go wherever it is you may be going do you have to take a lot of language classes and he said oh no man we are not there to talk. [applause] >> that's great. >> and i tell that story because as we get on the chopper to head back its my last flight in marine one of the prison he said that was cool. e that was great and i tell him the story and he threw back his head and he laughed and he said god, i love those guys. they understood the mission. they understood freedom and what we were fighting for. i got to see him last weekend of all the things that come with the presidency the only thing he misses his being commander in chief.

you can't become a navy s.e.a.l. if you're a passivist.rk for gm, you can't be opposed to chevrolets. she happens to have a job which requires handing out marriage certificates to those who lawfully have a right to those certificates. she's in clear violation of the law, and i think you'll see the courts back the law rather than her particular religious belief. >> david, i think some critics have said, look, that county is being difficult. there are other counties where you could get that certificate or license but you've chosen not to do that. why? >> i refuse to go to another county and be treated like a second-class citizen. that's like telling someone go use a different bathroom or go use a different service. we're going to give these services out to certain people in the community but not others based on our bigotry. i refuse to accept that. i'm not going to go to another county f. we go to another county, if we say this is okay, it will become okay everywhere. it will trickle down county to county. >> so, paul, quickly on the legal e

it's not like the guy claimed to be a navy s.e.a.l. or something.re offense if is not only members of the military getting pink slips while they're in combat but 250,000 veterans who died while waiting for care from the current administration, the current va. that's more insulting than these off the cuff remarks that we hear from donald trump, so we're worried about the substance, we're worried about whether government can deliver for the veterans. we're looking for a presidential candidate, what we want to hear from donald trump tonight is whether or not he's fwoingoing live up to president lincoln's promise to take care of the veterans when they come back from battle. >> i wonder as you stand there in front of the "uss iowa" that is an illustrious platform. it was brought out of moth balls used again in the '80s. my father served on board that ship. do you think donald trump the candidate has earned that platform? >> i think anyone running for office who has that first amendment right can walk on that platform and tell the american people what the

lee carter and carl hig by, a former navy s.e.a.l. god bless you all.rough the three hour debate. >> and we're here now. >> it's an hour or two long? >> yes. kind of like nascar. >> so we're going to ask you the winners and the losers regarding national affairs, foreign affairs. jillian, let's start with you. your winner is? >> carly fiorina by leaps and bounds. i thought she packed more substantive punch into one sentence than most of the other candidates got in the whole evening. she gets huge, huge credit for that pointing out some of our most important allies like the kurds, the juror dadiane i -- j. >> you also liked marco rubio when he said this? >> first of all, i have an understanding of what russia and putin is doing? it's straightforward. he is trying to replace us as the single most power broker in the middle east. >> he's your runner up. >> he's my runner up. where carly fiorina has the nuance, he has a big mac crow picture vision that most of the american people get it. last night he presented it very concisely. i think that that's going to

former navy s.e.a.l., dan waldwell is the legislative director for the concerned veterans of americah you. your favorite on the republican side for commander in chief? >> trump hands down. look he wanted to donate the proceeds from all the extra ad revenue from the debate from cnn so i think he wants to put his money where his mouth is. >> it's interesting last night and we featured some of the images of him on the deck of the "uss iowa." he proposed a medicare-like system to expedite vets health care. that's really something you're all very concerned about. >> yeah, absolutely. i think the way vets are being taken care of now, and also look at president obama's proposing that we bring in 10,000 to 50,000 new syrian refugees, but yet we have 50,000 vets homeless right now and they're not doing anything about it. i think trump will do something about that. >> dan your favorite? >> in my mind senator marco rubio and senator ted cruz are tied. senator rubio has gone out and proposed very forward-thinking v.a. reform legislation. senator cruz has embraced a lot of those ideas as well and

i look at the uniform of the navy s.e.a.l. team six, the man that killed bin laden. the s.e.a.l. team six who brought him down. the threat didn't die that day with bin laden. and i think many have tried to downgrade that it's over, the war on terror is over. i agree with you, sir. i was a federal prosecutor like yourself. these are not criminal cases. this is a war that has to be clearly defined who the enemy is and that's radical islamists, extremists. and only through that can you defeat that enemy. that was a great day. when bin laden was killed, but it didn't end the threat. now the threat is evolving. i believe this policy's containment against isis is not going to win the day and as long as they can fester over there after the arab spring, we've seen power vacuums full, we've seen it filled by terrorists in northern africa and all throughout the middle east. and as that threat grows overseas over there, so, too, does a threat to the home legion because they have greater territory to launch external operations, including operations over the internet ta we have seen more rece

and now we are going to be joined by retired navy s.e.a.l., retired bmc ken sedum -- i got it right? sedum who is with vets against the deal. >> thank you for your service. >> thank you and thank my parents. jennifer, thank you very much to everybody responsible for putting this on today. thank you. i'm grateful to be able to be here today and grateful to everyone here for braving the heat. i managed this yesterday, but if you think it's hot now, wait till this deal falls apart. i come from a navy family, mother, father, three boys, 105 years in the navy. i wanted to be a s.e.a.l. since i was very young and i'm fortunate to have been able to do it. if you can look through that tree and over the buildings and across the potomac and on to a little hill in arlington cemetery, you'd see a grave marker with one of my younger brother's names on it. he's buried in lot 59 which is reserved for the victims of terrorism. for those of you who are old enough to remember, robert dean stethem was a navy diver shot and thrown from the plane during the hijacking of flight 87. my family has seen terr

tell me about your son who was a navy s.e.a.l. >> yes..e.a.l., he had been on the team for about ten years. he was, obviously, an amazing young man, as i think most of these other mothers will tell you their children also. from a family. i'm one of seven, so he had a huge number of cousins and they all grew up together and spent a lot of time together. he was on a helicopter that was shot down in afghanistan on august 6th of 2011, with 30 other men, with 30 men, and it was a tremendous loss to the community. >> what do you want folks at home to know about your son and all of these men this morning? >> these are men who have given of themselves freely. this is a volunteer military. it doesn't touch everybody and i think out of mind, out of sight, out of mind. people tend to forget what it means. we have a scholarship for brian at his alma mater nor witch university. we started one at his high school. and my daughter started a non-profit in memory of brian. we send the children of navy special warfare on outdoor adventures with men like the

i look at the uniform of the navy s.e.a.l., team 6, the man who killed bin laden, the seal team 6 that brought him down. but the threat didn't die that day with bin laden. and i think many have tried to downgrade that it's over. the war on terror is over. i agree. i was a federal prosecutor like yourself. this is not a criminal case. this is a war that has to be clearly defined who the enemy is and that is rad cam islamic extremists. and only through that can you defeat that enemy. that was a great day when bin laden was killed. but it didn't end the threat. now the threat is evolving. the threat is different. the challenge is different. i believe that the policy of containment against isis is not going to win the day. as long as they can fester over there after the arab spring, we've seen it fall, it filled by terrorists in northern africa and all throughout the middle east, and as that threat grows overseas, so too does a threat to the homeland because they have greater territory to launch external operations, including operations over the internet that we've seen more recently. so i

. >>> taking $1.8 million from a navy s.e.a.l.'widow was not enough for jesse ventura. >> in a new interview with high times, he says, we haven't lost our moral compass when people like chris kyle are turned into heroes. you can't lie and have honor. and that his widow is not out one cent. and corporal chic is a close friend. he joins us now. we thank you for your time and service. and you sustained injuries while serving in iraq and a dear friend to chris kyle. when you hear jesse ventura run his mouth like that, you say what? >> it's ignorance is bliss, right. it's interesting that jesse wants to say something about honoring a hero that lied or what have you and that he's not a hero and we've lost our moral compass. you know what, it's hard for me to understand that because how is someone who was awarded two silver stars and a bronze star not a hero? i guess for ventura commonsense has left the building a long time ago. >> and how is this impacting the kyle family and friends? i mean, this continued assault on chris kyle, what ki

we want to bring in former navy s.e.a.l. and fbi special agent john gillian.nk you for being here. >> glad to be here. >> all we know in the public is there are two white suspects, one black. we know that because the police officer called that in. to us it seems like a needle in a haystack, but you as a law enforcement person see more clues than we do. >> i see some clues and see motives they could be looking at. and i'm sure law enforcement is looking at these things, but when this officer, this veteran officer rolled up on that location, it looked to me from the video there are warehouses and a railroad track. so i think first and foremost, you have to determine why or try to determine why were they there to begin with. >> and at that hour because it was so early. why would three people be in this warehouse area at 7:52 when the first call comes in. but what do you think is behind that? >> well, that depends. were they just transients moving around and did they overtake this officer and take his gun and shoot him with his own gun? i haven't yet heard the res

and among the people who think that he's way off base is congressman ryan zinke, a former navy s.e.a.lrlier. i hope congress does something to restore america's prestige. >> president obama is the commander in chief and he does not have the will, and i think that is, you know, that is clear, he wants to leave office as the guy who ended all the wars and didn't get us tangled up into anything else. and i understand what donald trump is talking about. the average person does not understand assad, mass murder, terrible guy, stuff like that. he's putin's guy, however. they do understand isis. and if russia wants to go into that region, and they're already mapping right there and they want to take care of isis, let them. >> no indication that they want to take care i've sis. >> i think it might be about oil and money for russia in reclaiming territory. putin might expand the map. >> no doubt it is a power grab, absolutely. and for the first time since the cold war it looks like this president, and this administration, is okay with ceding the control of the middle east to russia. which is on

here to weigh in is the man who killed osama bin laden, retired navy s.e.a.l.hat do you think about this? >> good morning, steve. good to be on again. well, i mean, this is -- it doesn't really surprise me, even though, you know, it should. right now this administration is trying to get rid of guantanamo bay in its entirety so they're trying to say a lot of these people are -- they're fixed and they're ready to go back and be milk and honey farmers even though that's not the case because they're going back to places right now where a lot of the ideology there is jihad, you know, against the west. it's not a good thing these guys are going to go back and be bad. right now we're down to the worst of the worst at guantanamo detainees and they're going to keep doing it. >> here's the thing, rob. not only are they going to send him back to saudi arabia. because he's been behind bars so long, saudi arabia says, welcome home. you can live like you want. become the honey farmer, something like that, but the united states will monitor these guys to make sure he doesn't
