anyway, let me go right to peter schiff. peter, you probably don't agree with my prognostication that falling gold is, a., a good thing. and there is more of it. so tell me where you come out. >> well, first of all, larry, thanks for having me back on. it's been a while. and by the way, i read your piece on the fall on the gold price and while i agree with your sentiments, i completely disagree with your conclusion. when the price of gold did plunge in 1980, that was a good sign. because paul volcker did the right thing. but ben bernanke is no paul volcker. i know paul volcker. he may not be a personal friend of mine, but i have met him. and bernanke is not paul volcker. everything he has done since the 2008 financial crisis has simply made the situation worse. and president obama is no ronald reagan. it's not a repeat of 2008. maybe it's a repeat of 1980, rather. it might be a repeat of 1976 or more recently, 2008 when gold did go down by 35%. but it was a buying opportunity. and i think this decline will prove to be a bett

adam schiff. what is going on here. has this been a massive ball dropped collectively by the fbi and now the cia? >> piers, i don't think people should leap to that conclusion. both because i don't think we have seen the evidence that that is in fact what happened. and because the investigation is still very early. when the fbi got this information from the russians, they went out, did an interview, did a pretty thorough look at this subject of the russian concern. they then went back to the russians and said we haven't been able to find anything. what have you got? give us some guidance here. the russians didn't respond, went back to them a couple more times and got no further information from the russians. so what they did check out, they weren't able to verify in any way. and i don't think that should lead us to conclude that somehow the fbi dropped the ball. also, these claims that there were multiple requests by multiple -- by the russian government to multiple agencies, from what i gather, there were only two requ

let's bring in congressman adam schiff and the former director of national intelligence. welcome to you both, gentlemen. >> thank you. >> here we are more than a day later after this what was the worst terror attack on american land since 9/11 and we don't know much about who may have done this or what motive, do we? let me start with you, ambassador. what is your take on where this investigation may be going? >> well, i really do think we have to be patient and wait and see. it's too early to say. it certainly doesn't -- there aren't any markings or indications as of yet of any foreign involvement, although that's obviously something that everybody must be looking out for. but so far, we haven't seen any such indication. >> congressman schiff, depending on who i've been watching or listening to or reading today, opinion wildly fluctuating in terms of speculative theorys. anything from an al qaeda-related attack to a domestic home grown attack. have you got any inside track intelligence whatsoever that would hint at either of those two? >> we had a initial briefing tonigh

at the beginning of the show we're talking to peter schiff.ying he felt like the housing data wasn't necessarily positive for a couple reasons, that it was going to evaporate rate when interest rates went up. we were creating another bubble and a lot of people coming in to buy housing were private equity funds buying with all cash and maybe they weren't serious buyers. maybe they were people buying with a lot of leverage. do you think there is any truth to any of that? >> i hate to disagree with such a smart guy but i do disagree. i think that's what was happening a year ago but now it is the real consumer. with all the new regulations, that the government has put in, with appraisals and down payments you can not buy a house unless you qualify for it. and, that's what makes it a real market. i totally agree what he said a year ago. i totally disagree today. melissa: you have thousands of employees around the country and in fact around the world. are you adding employees right now? are you confident enough to expand your businesses? >> we have

adam schiff, a boston area. thank you for joining us.'m sure your heart is going out to your native city here. so congressman, take us through this. should he be tried as an enemy of the united states, an enemy combatant? can he be prosecuted in that manner? >> well, i don't think we have really seen any evidence yet that would support treating him as an enemy combatant. this is somebody who is a u.s. citizen, arrested on u.s. soil for acts committed on u.s. soil. really far appeal from the paradigm of an enemy combatant, captured on an enemy battlefield. we don't have any evidence he's part of an al qaeda cell or been foreign directioned here. it's possible that could materialize but i think it is very hasty tore calling for his treatment as an enemy combatant. moreover, we haven't had much success in trying enemy combatants in our military commissions. criminal courts have been much more successful in the expeditious prosecution of terrorists. so this rush to want to proclaim him an enemy combatant and get embroiled in a system, frankl

we're now joined by california democratic congressman adam schiff.is the ranking democrat on the house intelligence committee. he is among the lawmakers who have been briefed on the boston investigation including a briefing last night. congressman, thank you so much for joining us this morning. let me start off with this news that we did hear overnight, that the fbi not only the fbi was informed by the russians at tamerlan tsarnaev in 2011 but later in the year the cia was also informed by the russians. the russian intelligent service reaching out to the cia. both the fbi and cia independently looked into this brother and found no reason to continue their investigation. but it doesn't appear that either spoke to each other. what are you hearing about that? >> well, it seems like it's really two identical or nearly identical inquiries merely sent to two different agencies. the fbi responded. they went out, interviewed him. they did a background of all the online traffic to try to find out was there any information indicating that he had been radicaliz

on the technical side, it's richard ross, and on the fundamental sigh, it's peter schiff. and peter, you've long pounded the table for gold. what do you think of goldman's call today? >> well, first of all, i've been telling my clients to buy gold since 1999. so it was under $300 at the time. but the fact that goldman is telling the muppets to sell their gold, i think the smart money is going to take the other side of that trade. in fact, i'm very curious about the timing of this call. if goldman really was this negative on gold, whyn didn't they so on thursday before we got the friday jobs report, which is extremely bull issue for the price of gold? so they should be less bearish now. in fact, i think they're trying to drive the price down. >> isn't that the point, though. is that it's not reacting the way it normally would to certain data points. and it's just not acting the way gold typically would. so they're saying get out now. >> it started to. it had a very good day yesterday. i think goldman wants to knock the price down, either because they want to buy more cheape

schiff indicated, that i come up here and have -- i probably can't. i don't want to pledge something that i don't have the ability to confirm that. i don't want to put myself -- >> when you ask questions of your employers, they generally answer very quickly? >> generally. that doesn't mean all the time. >> so certainly by the end of the human know the answer to that question? >> probably, yes. and speeded with mr. wolf -- spent we can probably answer this question very quickly. the only question is time. that's all i was saying speak would you please give the chairman a commitment? >> the answer is yes and i appreciate that and i'm sure that mr. rooney does or we will work out, and mr. rooney, with your permission i think mr. fattah, both of us will,. >> absolutely. thank you, mr. chairman. >> mr. harris? no. mr. serrano, excuse me. >> thank you, mr. chairman. it's not easy to go back to regular questions after this discussion, but i think the gentleman from florida, mr. rooney, has legitimate heartfelt concerns. but like mr. schiff, i also heard, in

but they also accompanied that with printed schiff dresses which had a print on it. >> a lot easitoryre? >> it's not cheap. i wouldn't use the word cheap. >> cheaper. >> less expensive and still, you know, directly linked to the runway idea that the consumer will see and want to buy into. >> but here is what i wonder. if the recent success of prada because it's more understated, because it's not the lvmh or the chanel, but now consumers are looking for something more sophisticated and maybe prada match that's better. >> it's true that prada doesn't necessarily have like the canvas logo that gucci have, but they also have identifiable shapes. so the in-the-know consumer is still able to identify the prada brand. i actually say prada have seasonal logos. every season their creative ideas on the cat walk are so specific and so different from everyone else that anyone who watch that's brand is able to see it on the street. >> what's the most important thing for prada's success maybe for the rest of this year to carry on what we've seen over the last six to 12 months? >> well, with all lux
