e-mails, and peter smith said that he was acting on behalf of general flynn. so there's still a lot of questions about what general flynn knew about efforts by the russians to get dirt on hillary clinton and whether he shared that with donald trump or anyone else in the family. but again, this should be a wake-up call for us to finally start kpeening witnesses and being able to confront them with third-party-compelled documents. >> you mentioned that one case in particular, of course, "the new york times" reporting today there was an effort, soft outreach to the national rifle association, through a member of the national rifle association, rather, to the trump campaign to establish some connection between the campaign and the russian government. what do you make of that report in the "times" this morning? >> yeah, i read nicholas fanos' story, which demonstrates a clear effort by the russians at all levels to try and reach out to members on the trump team. and as we've seen with the don trump jr. response to the june 9th e-mail, clinton/russia private confide

there's a security analyst who is contacted by peter smith at one point. again, the donor who was a very connected figure. the sort of center of a lot of anticlinton work in the '90s. knows a lot of people. there was a security analyst who smith contacted who said look, it sounded like he was in the know on the campaign. he was pretty connected to the campaign. what do you make of this part of the story? >> i'm concerned. i'm concerned about it not just because of the potential criminal part of this, but i'm concerned because you know, the russians were able to acquire hillary clinton's e-mails or able to set up a dangle that was able the to get to someone like smith and then by extension to our short-term nsa michael flynn. that is something we should all be concerned about. at the epd of the day, the criminal part of this is incredibly important and the american public needs to know what happened and what crimes if any were convicted, perpetrated, but the other part of this is what did the russians do? clearly, they had deep and wide operation going. tha

you'll also remember that peter smith mysteriously committed suicide not long after talking to shane harris for that story. the journal this week also lost paul's son who's the one who broke that remarkable story about kaspersky software. that's how we learned that before trump national security adviser mike flynn took money from kaspersky, his own agency, the defense intelligence agency, had published multiple reports and even a pentagon-wide warning saying that kaspersky was from russian intelligence. now both paul sund and shane harris are leaving "the wall street journal" as of this week. the journal has also shed devlin barrett who has been a scoop machine on a lot of stories over the years but in particular on this trump russia scandal. "the wall street journal" also lost adam entis who ended up breaking that big story during the transition, eric prince had held a secret back door meeting with a guy who had been sent by vladimir putin. a big chunk of their editorial staff we now know fled that paper in the wake of its turn towards supporting trump, and it may or may not be rela

representatives, which he ultimately did decide to run for, and lost by a slim majority to republican peter smith. this individual had expressed concerns he was going to flip the vote. "i agree on a number of issues. it is not accurate to state by any means our views are the same. i hope every established and special interest group will benefit. i have done things very few mayors in the united states have ever attempted. to contrast myd record in the city of burlington with peter's record in the legislature. maybe it is time for one independent progressive in congress. my election in vermont will be of national significance, the first time a progressive congressman has been elected." he won in 1990, which launched in into a 16 year career in the house. in 2007, he became a member of the senate. forwardontinued to move in his political career, running for president of the united states last year on many of the same issues he was championing back as mayor in the 1980's. one of those issues was health care. we have a document from september of 1987, a statement by the mayor of montpelier, vermont. t

do we have peter smith? we do have him, okay. i thought he was running a little late.er smith is the ceo and cofounder of block chain, that's the technology which people use to buy and celibate coin. peter, welcome to the program. >> thank you for having me. stuart: okay, are you coming to -- i think you have a slight delay. here we go. i want you to give us 20 seconds on how the block chain technology works, go. >> it's underlying protocol that enables you to do high-value transfers in low-trust environment and the way it's used today in the market is for digital car insurance ice. stuart: you are the building block so to speak of crypto currencies. if bitcoin goes away, you're still there, is that accurate? >> that's probably true. we support really every major crypto currency and we really offer a platform for individuals and businesses to make use of digital currencies as long as the idea of digital currencies, underlying technology is a powerful idea that people are having value from will be there. stuart: you're not a public-traded company; is that correct? >> pr

peter smith is the late operative running that operation. he said before he died that he was working with mike flynn on that operation. it's now a matter of not just journalism record but filings that are attested and true during the transition he held secret conversations about undermining and dropping sanctions against russia including the sanctions leveed by the obama administration in response to russia messing with our election. we know thanks to the guilty plea that flynn filed in d.c. district court that he lied to the fbi about those conversations with russian officials and more. why did this guy end up on the trump campaign in the first place? why did he stay there when it started going wrong so badly and blatantly early on? why was the president so desperate to keep him on and save him from criminal scrutiny once the white house could no longer avoid that flynn was trouble? i mean, big picture, where we are right now, we know as a matter of record, russia intervened aggressively in the election to help donald trump. we know element

strongest evidence yet of possible collusion detailing how a gop operative, the now deceased peter w. smithhed a quest to obtain e-mails he believed were stolen from hillary clinton's private server while implying that he was connected to michael flynn. >> it shows you both, a, how good the russians are at manipulating people and, b, it shows you how susceptible -- >> right. >> -- the man in the white house is to that manipulation. >> i'm more than happy to be transparent and more than happy to cooperate. >> as far as this incident occurred, this is all of it. >> this is everything. >> that was most certainly not everything because on friday we learned that there was still a lot about the june 2016 meeting with a kremlin connected lawyer that we had not yet seen. it turns out that that lawyer wasn't the only russian in the room in donald jr.'s e-mail correspondence. what he and the trump campaign were promised in those e-mails was some official documents and information that would incriminate hillary clinton, information that is part of russia and its government support for mr. trump. an ex

had hope heading into the final day but another century from the australia captain steve smith saw the 4th test peternto a draw. patrick gearey reports from melbourne. england fans were the noisiest and most visible element today. they we re most visible element today. they were hoping to see a first dramatic victory of this ashes series. in the end steve smith got in the way, batting australia through for a draw and scored another century. it was and scored another century. it was an anti—climactic end for england. morning has broken, but with the australians? with the weather kind after the rain yesterday, england we re after the rain yesterday, england were up against vanishing time and two batsmen in anything but a hurry. when david warner shuffle to his 50 he had been at the crease for more than three hours. joe root had been given a puzzle for his birthday. he decided he might be the answer and he came on to bowl, warner took the bait and james vince took the cash. stuart broad's accuracy and the agility ofjonny bairstow removed marsh. the other was bogged down initially but mitchell escaped. s

peter pan. award hook in this production and she's here with michael smith, the director executive of crayons tocrayons. so the story of peter pan, this has been loved for generations. tell us what is unique about the production? >> i like to say it's not grandmother's peter pan. it's the same story, the same characters, but it's put in a slightly more timely way. we've gotten rid of some of the racism that has been in the past production. and it feels fresh and new. it's set in a campground. the girls in the play have as much fun and as much power as the boys which is pretty exciting. it's not peter who does all the fighting. wendy is by his side bell is very exciting. and, of course i'm captain hook, so that's a slightly different take. >> and that leads into my next question. how is it being a woman playing captain hook? is that unusual? >> it is really unusual. oftentimes, peter is cast as a woman, because he's supposed to be a little boy, but i don't know many productions if any where the captain hook has been a woman. i love it. it's exciting. i love being able to swashbuckle and have a ho

peter. leland: bring in wade smith, significance of gaston in just a couple of minutes, thanks for being with-- if doug jones wins this, path through victory paveed through african american vote, patrick and booker coming out is that enough to turn out the african-american vote? >> it might be enough to turn out the after-american vote but honestly i don't know if the african-american vote will be enough to get the election for doug jones. i think roy moore's base is very strong, they have not backed no matter allegation and roy moore's supporters stayed on his side and now that you can have a grain of salt altering of roy moore's post for campaign to latch to, some that would not vote for roy moore or party and are going back that direction. leland: gloria alred inaccurate at best, again -- now has had to qualify those remarks, where does that do for the credibility of all of the moore accusers? >> i've heard a lot of people that if that one piece is incorrect, then her credibility, beverly young nelson and gloria allred out the window. why is not roy moore's credibility out the get-go, you
