to susan's friends. their description of him was damning. everybody i talked to said, she's scared of mike. natalie morales (voiceover): gloria martin told hensley why susan was so afraid. when they finally broke up the last time, he left horrible, horrible notes all over her house and a cassette tape saying the most horrible things you ever heard about her and to her. and i remember coming over there, and she was just crying her eyes out. natalie morales (voiceover): the cassette tape michael left behind was a 30-minute rant of grievances about susan. did it sound threatening to you? it sounded crazy, irrational. and it sounded bad enough that when she got killed, i had no doubt in my mind who had done it. there was no doubt. it had to be mike. natalie morales (voiceover): hensley had heard enough. he'd developed some solid leads on suspects in stephenville, but he decided to set them aside. it was time to turn up the heat on michael woods. lester holt (voiceover): coming up, the talk around town. what

so i wanted to start then with susan. could you tell us a little bit more about your about your book and then also what some of the obstacles for you? okay is this on you? citizen okay, great. thank you. thank you so much, lesley. i'm so honored to be this panel. and as this is a this is a topic that's near and dear to my heart, the idea of secrets, it's kind of at the center of of my book as an adopted my life was pretty much shrouded in secrets from the day i was born. i was given a new birth certificate, an amended certificate, because as some of you may know, adopted people do not have access to their original certificates. they're sealed and so not access to that, not knowing many of the details around birth and our family so i started on this quest very early. i was a teenager and when i was 18 i joined a group called alma the adoptees liberty movement association, which sounded so radical. and they actually are radical, but i thought they were like. you know, revolutionaries and. they helped me to find that path. w

this is susan. uh, you won't find the british medical lots that journal, the july estimate of a 186000 killed mostly women and children in nature, propaganda or media. but you understand, believe having being to guys and then it could be as high as a, as half a 1000000 maybe by now. i mean that's proportionally equivalent to why being a 160000000 americans. what do you think about the scale of this larger and is it being covered there in the united states in terms of percentages? because uh, uh these are, these are unprecedented numbers, aren't they? has for a population. so i, of course, i mean, of course, it's not being covered in united states. the about 10 days prior to the lancet article, i did a study myself, i am a scientist. but before i was underwriter, i was assigned to some i still am. i used to the things i witnessed, i used other data that i gathered and i used data from various human rights organizations who are on the ground in gaza, including the when euro meds, the w h o and others

. >> susan glasser is with us as well. susan, the camp david accords, as we all know, were a very significant achievement for president carter, indeed for the middle east and the world. how has carter's leadership during those 13 days at camp david shaped the region? in the decades since? >> well, i have to say it's important to think of him in a cold war context, and that makes the achievement of the israel egypt accord at camp david even more remarkable, because it was in the context of a superpower competition in the mideast, one that has, you know, been reborn between the united states and russia after the cold war. what's remarkable about what jimmy carter did at camp david wolf, is that that is something that has endured over all these decades at a time when other peace has proved frustratingly elusive. israel and egypt have kept to the terms of that peace treaty, even over the last year and a half of the gaza war, you have seen that not, you know, been been stressed but not break. and that's a very important thing g

susan, let's start with ryan left off.at still remain about a number of these picks from donald trump. >> yeah, that's right. i thought, though, the point is well taken that there's almost a swarm effect happening here where there's so many potential controversies and so many of these nominees with issues, it's been hard for the political world to focus on just one of them. this week has certainly been pete hegseth's time in the barrel. it has the whiff of increasing desperation about it, the nomination. it might even be a surprise at this point might be if he manages to hold on. at the same time, that definitely has meant there's less scrutiny on perhaps, i would argue, one of the most if not the most disruptive potential nominations, that of kash patel, to be fbi director. especially considering that there is a current fbi director who has nearly three years left on his ten-year term. trump would have to fire christopher wray in order to send kash patel's nomination up to capitol hill. we're not talking about that. we're

garret graff and susan glasser, thank you both for your time tonight. appreciate you both. >> always. >>> coming up president biden pardoned his son hunter to protect him from future prosecution by trump loyalists, but what about trump critics like liz cheney and mark milly? should president biden protect them from the justice department? paul rosenswine joins me to discuss that coming up next. ro discuss that coming up next. with the money i saved i thought i'd get a wax figure of myself. cool right? look at this craftmanship. i mean they even got my nostrils right. it's just nice to know that years after i'm gone this guy will be standing the test of ti... he's melting! oh jeez... nooo... oh gaa... only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty ♪ what if your mobile network wasn't just built to work out here... ...but was designed differently to also give you blazing fast wifi where you are most of the time? reliable 5g, plus wifi speeds up to a gig where you need it most. xfinity mobile. now xfinity internet customers can buy one li

susan glasser, to you first. your reaction to the report your colleague jane mayer about pig -- i keep saying that. pete hegseth. what does this say about how donald trump is picking people? it keeps getting worse for this guy. >> yeah, stephanie. if you haven't read the piece by jane in the new yorker, i highly recommend it. it's so voluminous. it's not just a report from a single disgruntled employee as that statement that you quoted. there is an enormous amount of information in there spanning multiple jobs that pete hegseth had. the allegations are disturbing. they remind me in some ways of the conduct that saying john towers nomination to be secretary of defense back in the first george hw bush presidency. it goes beyond not only the allegations of potential alcohol abuse in the workplace, but real questions about his ability to manage even two relatively small veterans organizations, to step into the pentagon job, the largest, most powerful military bureaucracy in the world. this does not suggest he has the

so the us to get a better school performance back to susan. she often has to do work around the house after school. and she's only allowed to study once it's dark out, which would be impossible without the solar lamp. the next morning on her way to school for solar lamp in her backpack is recharged. susan has shown improvement, according to a teacher, will also cause scientific and environmental subjects. she's pleased at the solar backpack is a convincing practical example of plastic recycling. but what use a good grades default is to look for to unemployment. as so often the case for young women in uganda, but there is another way, goes was tools office a solution, a program set up by social inter for nurture. mueller, my younger young woman, can you see vocational training certificates for supposedly typical meal? okay. patient sure. loan can use uh, his personal receipt. so modul training here. now the 22 year old, so the technician started up her own business. and she has no solve the problem with a flickering lights, all of the cleaning

what jimmy carter said, susan, and then have you respond to it afterwards.ake a listen. >> we are privileged to witness tonight a significant achievement in the cause of peace. through 13 long days at camp david, we have seen them display determination and vision and flexibility, which was needed to make this agreement come to pass. all of us owe them our gratitude and respect. >> i think what's striking in this moment is, you know, if you read lawrence wright's book on that period of time, i mean, it's just extraordinary what he was able to almost will across the finish line there. how did that shape kind of negotiations? the state of the middle east going forward? does it give any lessons that perhaps the incoming president could follow? >> well, first of all, we should note that that is an enduring accomplishment in in a region that has not had enduring examples of peace, the peace between israel and egypt has held. and i think that that in and of itself makes it worth studying. now, there were, you know, years that led up to it, and yet you mentioned my

susan, thank so much for coming on either 1st task. what playgrounds or palestine is for our audience? because a horribly the word playground is now associated with mass graves and is riley soldiers on by britain in the united states. playing and playgrounds and executing children. as i have shown, thanks for having me. clarence for palestine uh, was conceived as an initiative to bring recreation and joy to children. we have, for the past year diverted all of our resources towards a school that we started in gaza because this is the 2nd year now that children have been out of school. so we are trying to, you know, just continue education as much as possible for as many children as we can.

all right, susan. let's talk about kash patel. before we get into him, i want to share a bit of what my colleague, kenda lanyon, explained earlier today about the importance of being the fbi director, what this job entails. watch this. >> the fbi direct or wields incredible power in the united states, and for anyone who doesn't believe that, go read a biography of j edgar hoover. we don't live in the hoover days anymore but the f i still, they have people who can break into your home and plant a bug, and you'll never know about it, and they can get secret warrants, national security wants to do that, and no one will ever find out. they can obtain the records of news media phone calls and we'll never hear about it, assuming a justice department set of guidelines on that is overturned. so this is an incredibly powerful job. >> okay, susan. we know how loyal kash patel is to donald trump . we know what he has said in the past. but is this man horrified to run the fbi? >> look, steph, remember that the fbi has a 10 year term precisely

the susan, the tuneful also benefits from solar energy. but in a different way, the 15 year old school go onto the backpack with an integrated community solar panels. it can charge a lamp. this helps the study at night, in turn, the lumpkin load, so far as the cell phone. this bad safety treated may looks at tonight's you don't have a this the tomb as you see. so so have me to send may baffle nice. i'm going to pass my exams. the 3 young woman we've introduced can think jamila, my and jessica social into a premier from the yukon and capital compiler, for the experiences with solar energy. my on jetta self gets involved when a employees look for plastic bags on the side of the road. as the solar backpacks a made of recycle plastic garbage is a big problem in compiler. so we try and make a difference in using these recycling these plastic words. i'm showing the community we are coming from very easy to recycle with the then we'd be in the system after the plastic bags happened clean. they're turned into solar backpacks with cute water proof

now, some, like susan collins of maine, say the pressure campaign will not work. what do you think of the pressure campaign from the trump allies to try to get you to toe the line on these nominees? is it effective? >> no. >> i've taken many, many. difficult votes over the years that i've been privileged to serve in the senate. >> and my panel is back. i mean, these are the republican senators you're going to want to watch, because they're the ones who are up in 2026. they're the ones who may face primary challengers, and they're the ones that trump is and his allies are targeting. >> right. and it's one thing for susan collins to say that she's got her own conditions in maine, her own power base. but it's, as you were mentioning earlier, senator cassidy, for example, this week we saw senator joni ernst come under increased pressure over the pete hegseth pick, who she had expressed some reservations against, and she became in the full glare of the conservative media machine. and she eventually watered down, i think for people like her. it's a question of not neces

right now, we're standing outside of senator susan collins office. i'm going to get out of the way just so you can see him arriving. but one thing to keep in mind today is just how critical it is going to be to win over a moderate like senator susan collins, or at least stop her from saying anything negative about their meeting today. that is what we saw yesterday after he met with senator lisa murkowski, a republican from alaska. she said that they just had a good meeting. obviously, that is going to be something to keep a very close eye on. what do you hope to. what do you hope to talk to? senator collins about today? what do you hope to talk to senator collins about today? >> this is how we're feeling today right here. feeling great. >> fight for the country. do you feel confident that you're going to get to a confirmation process? get to the hearing? or are you planning on getting some of these yes. so obviously, jim, we're just hearing very brief remarks from him. he's not giving much detail about what they're going to discuss today, but this is

susan collins, for example, earlier told me she wants to make sure our military has the adequate iness level, but there are potentially levels they could cut. john thune, the senate incoming republican leader who met with elon musk this morning, told me that perhaps mandatory programs are areas they're looking to make cuts in, like social security, for example. but again, no specifics were laid out there.

." >>> and for more on this conversation, i want to bring in susan delpercio. susan, every cabinet, you know, always has, always is kind of subject to big question marks, but i see donald trump telling kristen welker he's got confidence in pete hegseth, but there's widespread reporting that he's considering replacing him with florida governor desantis. can you look into your crystal ball and see how this is going to play out? >> first, let me look into the past for a moment. when donald trump is really behind someone, we know it. he threatens people. he is aggressive about making sure people know he's 100% behind someone. the answers i heard in that interview with our colleague, kristen, i just don't see a very enthusiastic endorsement. donald trump doesn't like to lose, but i think he knows that you know, katie, if a week is a year in politics, then a month is like a decade when it come to a congressional, or a senatorial confirmation process. that's what we're looking at. there's a lot of time left on the clock with when you look at hegseth and a few other of
