beyond that, the reporter jeffrey goldberg has been seen as trust worthy enough that he has -- the administration whose just department has chased down other leads by threatening to throw "new york times" reporter james risen in jail, and went through the phone records of james rosen as well as associated press reporters suddenly seems disinterested in finding out who attacked netanyahu. >> you have gone after reporters again and again in this administration. when it comes to insulting the prime minister, you don't seem to care who leaked it. >> i don't think that's an accurate reflection of the administration's policy and certainly not an accurate refleckation of the prime minister of israel. >> in fact attorney general eridge holder today acknowledged an overreach in the holden case, when asked how ideas formed about a decision he wishes he could do over. >> i think about the subpoena to the fox reporter, rosen, i think that i could have been a little more careful in looking at the language that was contained in the filing that we made with the court. >> as for israel, that coward remark was an

and there seems to be no tragedyic response what so ever from the administration. are you troubleed? >> i am all 3 are antidemocratic, last thing that putin wants to see in russia is a truly democratic society, the same is true with iran and china. and they have a desire to keep the price of oil or energy high. instead of the administration cooperating, in order to drive down and to encourage more production here, we're talking canadian oil, and instead of allowing it to be brought in through keystone pipeline, we instead by our inaction create a situation that will be pumped westover th the rockies then set to china, you know, clearly, we're not playing the same strategy of trying to advance democratic governorence, protect the interest of democratic states bring down energy prices, to counter this strategy we see, from our economic competitors who are working together. together. lou: congressman, thank you so much. >> thank you, lou. lou: congressman ed royce, chairman of house foreign affairs committee. >> a look at our on-line poll and results we asked last nigh

lou: vice president joe biden not helping the administration. today completing his middle east apology tour. the vice president talked with saudi arabiaian officials after he called turkey's people saturday at issue these remarks from last week. >> our allies in the region were our largest problem in syria. the turks friends friends. and i have a great relationship. the saudis, its, what were they doing? they were so determined to take down assad and essentially have a proxy sunni shia war. what did they do? they poured hundreds of millions and dollars and ten thousands of tons of weapons into anyone who would fight against assad. >> the white house says the vice president clarified his remarks, but the administration doesn't outright deny that the substance of what biden said was true. it's been well-reported that saudi arabia, the united emirates all at one time supported rebel groups in the hopes of destablessing the assad regime which was the purpose of the obama administration as well. those funds may have been intended however for moderate

why the administration has its head in the sand on this is absolutely bizarre and murderous. the administration in terms of terrorism is not controlled by central authority. terrorists know if you operate in small groups, it's hard for them to stop it. this guy was a terrorist, pure and simple. terrorism. >> that's right, bruce. they are still calling ft. hood workplace violence. that appears to be terrorism. doesn't it to you? >> i don't know about the terrorism thing. the guy is being charged with murder. he faces the death penalty. i don't know if oklahoma we can say is the area of political correctness. there was a man in chicago that sabotaged the faa station. what is the definition of terrorism? how do we define that? >> sabrina, it's not hard when you look at his website and facebook page. everything points to him being encouraged by what he was doing and who he was in contact with. that looks like terrorism. >> absolutely. and i think it's really important that the government recognizes it as terrorist motivation. because as steve recognizes, we had the ft. hood shoot

the bush administration did the same. they want to encourage the position of moderates and for moderates to stand up against extremists. however, as hussein has also outlined, mike has outlined, everyone has outlined. the united states has done a bad job of backing moderates in the field. to back moderates rhetorically is one thing but to let the extremists, the nuts come in. whether it's isis or islamic republic of iran and hezbollah, these are big issues to really put your money where your mouth is. i think this is one of the thing that is we're getting at. this has not been happening. i want to come back to cobe ani. -- kobani. one of the things you were talking about hussein, you were saying that this divide pre-exists isis. i want you to talk about that for a second. mike, i'm going to ask you to talk about your sense of isis' actual military capabilities and what it takes militarily to handle them. >> sure. well, what we know is that one of the ways that assad kept tabs on the kurds was to use these same tribes to n

the administration has continued investigations that started in the bush administration. w was quoted with this financial information being leaked. my question was not about getting to the fact that this is not classified information about benjamin netanyahu, this is information that's been leaked out that's very damaging about key information about having a top ally in the mideast at a time when the mideast is in complete tumult. >> reports are that they are very angry at briefings from the white house. did that come up today? >> it didn't, but why did the president come out there time after time and say, i'm not on the ballot but my policies are. you have to wonder why the president said that, because he said it more than once. he said it to al sharpton, he said it on the radio a few weeks back. that tells me he's not happy that these folks have been distancing themselves from the president. he's trying to point out to the country, okay, they may be running but they've supported my policies again and again. i think he's also thinking about when the dust settles after thi

while the administration seems to be saying that everything is just fine. welcome to "the kelly file" everyone. i'm megyn kelly. just a few hours ago we got reports that today alone at least 30 people were killed in iraq's capital city of baghdad. just the latest bloodshed from a group that came close to capturing the baghdad airport on friday. joint chiefs charmt general martin dempsey said our only option was to call in apache attack helicopters to prevent them from taking things over completely. that's not good. also, despite the president's promise to degrade and destroy this group over the weekend isis claimed control of a critical military base. despite a series of coalition air strikes there just hours before. the leaders of anbar province, that whole region just west of iraq's capital were today warning there were some 10,000 isis fighters now in their neck of the woods. they're begging for ground support. isis has 80% of anbar province, which we fought so hard to secure. but when national security advisor susan rice just yesterday was asked about ho

one of the things that strikes me is -- and it is not just this administration the bush administration did the same, encourage the position of moderates and for moderates to step up against extremists. as everyone has outlined, the united states has been -- has done a terrifically bad job of backing moderates in the field. to back them rhetorically is one thing, but to let the extremists come in, whether that is isis, the islamic republic of iran and it hezbollah, these are big issues to put your money where your mouth is. this is one of the things we have been getting at command has not been happening. one of the things you were talking about, this divide preexisting isis. to talk about that for a second. and then i will ask you to talk about your sense of isis actual military capabilities and what it takes militarily to handle them. >> sure. well, and what we know is that one of the ways what -- was to use these same tribes to not beat them, but the animosity between these two. of course, it started in ancient times, you know, these mundane things. but we know there is a line between

it would have been on the front page had the administration wanted it to be on the front page.he media waits for the administration to dictate the agenda and coverage. >> why do they do that? easier? safer? >> a complicated set of reasons but it has to do with easier, laziness, support for the administration. support in general for the powers that be. wanting to tow the line but i guarantee you that if there had been headlines or the administration wanted concerns about terrorism to be on the front burner quite the opposite happened and i see this whole question about isis as another point in the continuum that the administration apparently wanted to down play concerns about terrorism buy and large. >> but would the benefit of hindsight if the situation was so dire and the terrorists are growing in their ability to murder people and grab land, did the media fall down on the job? what we're seeing now is a manifestation of a debate that's been taking place behind the scenes in the intelligence community in particular. for quite some time, for several years. now the administratio

andas chicken does that refer to the administration at large? you that my job often youlves taken the product just described and turning it into chicken salad. i will do my best to answer your question in a straightforward way. is, comments like that do not reflect the view of the administration and we do believe that they are counterproductive. minister and the president have forged an effective partnership and they consult closely infrequently, doing so as recently as this .onth here in the oval office there is a very close relationship between the united states and israel, but that close relationship does not mean that we paper over our differences. the fact is that the united states has repeatedly made clear our view that settlement activity is illegitimate and only serves to complicate in the region. the united states -- the relationship between us is as strong as ever. the security bonds between our nations are unbreakable. and there are strong links between the countries that are not just historic, but are also persistent. i think that th

sometimes that will influence the administration to take action. host: as far as the director, tom frieden, has president obama expressed confidence in him, concerns, what has been said about him? guest: he has been neutral. he did that come out and say i have full and complete confidence. the administration said they thought the cdc had exhibited some shortcomings at the start , ande crisis in dallas that they feel things need to change. theink that is suggested of president sending out a warning signal to the cdc. we do not like how this has gone so far. we are going to watch and see if you can string things out. that is the impression i get from the administration right a little bit on probation right now. they are watching what he is doing and they want to see how things are handled, moving forward, at this point. host: the president canceled trips yesterday and today because of this. do you see this continuing? guest: it could. we are that close to an election on the public could sour idea of our commander in chief disappearing on the campaign

>> the administration says the president was not blaming james clapper. and the media says of course he was. who is right? >> of course he's blaming james clapper. it's very unusual for him to come forward and lay blame at somebody by name like that. i can only thinkellow democrats or public pressure polls told him there has to be a mea culpa and either james clapper agreed to be the bunching bag or found himself the punching bag but he did and a lot of people i speak to don't think he is probably to blame for all of the things that the president seems to be blaming him for. >> but there was a punching bag the new york times story next day unnamed intelligence officials quoted one of them said some of us were pushing the reporting on the chaos in syria in the past but the white house didn't pay attention to it. it wasn't a big priority. is that good reporting or is there an aspect here where the media can be used by unnamed sources. >> what? the media used? >> absolutely that's happening but i think in this case it had additional validity because you have

the bush administration did the same. want to encourage the position of moderates and for moderates to stand up against extremists. however, as hussein has also outlined, mike has outlined, everyone has outlined. the united states has done travegly bad job of backing moderates in the field. to back moderates rhett orically is one thing but to let the extremists, the nuts come in. whether it's isis or islamic republic of iran and hezbollah, these are big issues to really put your money where your mouth is. i think this is one of the thing that is we're getting at. this has not been happening. i want to come back to cobe ani. one of the things you were talking about hussein, you were saying that this divide preexists isis. i want you to talk about that for a second. mike, i'm going to ask you to talk about your sense of isis' actual military capabilities and what it takes militarily to handle them. >> sure. well, what we know is that one of the ways that assad kept tabs on the kurds was to use these same tribes to not sort

are you sensing a split between the military community and the administration formal at this point? >> well, there has been a difference of opinion for a positived time. people in the pentagon said they believe you need ground forces and not hundred thousand troops and not an iraq invasion, but you will need troops in a forward position much more so in iraq than syria to help. we don't have ground forces to aid in syria at this point. you can overstate the impact of kaboni. most of us never heard of the town a week ago. if it falls it didn't make isis a bigger or smaller threat to the united states or u.s. home land. but on the other hand, it points out a lot of problems with the president's policies and the fact we haven't gotten together with turkey. turkey is right across the boarder and they can look and see the bombardment of kaboni and they could go over there. but the president hasn't agreed with turkish officials about going after the assad regime. this is a test case that shoes problems with the president's policies, whether or not kaboni falls or not while important to the

longer than the administration initially estimated. i think americans know that countering islamist threats around the world is something that is going to be an ongoing challenge. but when you say something like 30 years, that sounds very disheartening. lou: at the very best, sobering. dana, your reaction. >> i just wish that we would have put a little bit more effort in prevention. especially when we consider that the president wasn't taking the advice of many of his generals, a lot of individuals within the pentagon in keeping a residual force there in iraq. of course, that all created the vacuum that we now isis or the islamic state enjoying. they were able to spring up because of that. a number of things. it's so easy to act in a proactive preinventivive manner to keep it from becoming what it is becoming now. when i look at 30 years, i have little boys. in 30 years, they're eligible for the draft if we ever have that reinstated. i have a a very brand-new way of looking at this and i'm concerned. lou: and at the same time, the nati

wand that in mind, one strategy for executive action that the administration could pursue would be to change dhs' enforcement priorities to make them more narrowly defined so that fewer immigrants fall within the priorities. for example, current priorities include any one ever convicted of any crime. so the administration could instead define its public safety priority or its criminal alien priority to prioritize people who have been convicted of violent crimes or people who have been convicted of felonies or recently been convicted of crimes or felonies. or it could deprioritize people whose only criminal offense was for an immigration crime. the administration could also narrow its definition of its other two enforcement priorities, recent border cross crossers, which is currently defined as anybody who entered many the last three years, or people to who disregard deportation orders, which currently includes somebody who was deported 20 years ago. so in this report that we issued last week, we go through a lot of detail about different scenarios and i'm not going to go through all t

demonstrating just how the obama administration is failing to highlight how the truth is vastly differents administration has been claiming. the migration policy institute is not a partisan organization. >> sometimes the facts demand attention. the study says even the 95% have criminal histories or multiple -- which puts them in a felony category anyway. but this proves -- as if we needed further proof, that the immigration advocacy establishment lies. they have been trained as of family values, law-abiding immigrants that are being hauled away by the administration. but in fact the only people that faced any risk of deportation or criminals at this point. if we cut that further, those are the ones that are going to be staying. lou: 167,000 we know by the estimate have criminal illegal immigrants losing our society right now. in fact, the administration on this and the many issues has waged a campaign of disinformation against the american people. these are outright lies on the issue of illegal immigration that they have originated and sustained now for almost six years. heather macdonald

to be the transparency administration. and there's been a lot of language around the importance of transparency. i think we all viscerally believe that the government belongs to the people and that we're the representatives of the people, and i think we're all fairly idealistic about that. and we think that the government works better when it's transparent. that fresh air, transparency is the best disinfectant. it does not look like the government, or feel that way. you see it not only in the white house but all the executive agencies, where they just make it very hard. it's harder to get press passes, harder to get into meetings. you get handlers who sit with you more. and that's partly a practical problem. but i think it's very important as a symbolic problem. because we really do want to be in a society that believes it's important for the public to know what's going on, and it's important for independent journalism to exist, and to exist in a really robust way. it does not feel as if very often the administration feels

the question here is the administration's response to ebola on target? north carolina congresswoman renee elmer has a lot to say. her district boston bragg where military members may be sent to west africa to help deal with the outbreak. we'll speak to the congresswoman a little bit later in this newscast. eric? >> there's a somber task under way right now in virginia after police found the human remains on an abandoned property, remains that could be those of miss i missing university of virginia sophomore student hannah graham. more live from charlottesville, virginia. >> reporter: we'll set the scene for you. we're in the last place hannah graham was seen alive with jesse math two, nine or ten miles away from where the crow flies is where the police discovered the body and as you can see from these pictures it's rural virginia, heavily wooded, dense vegetation. we're told search teams have been out there day after day since she disappeared looking for hannah graham. they came up upon a body in a dried-out creek bed and also found some clothing there. p

so it was after the bush administration left and then it was renewed by the obama administration and a whole series of subpoenas. yeah. in my affidavit, one of my affidavits in the case, i think i filed several of them actually -- i talk about the harassment that i got during the bush administration. so that's on -- it's public in the court documents where i describe the -- all of the efforts both public and some private efforts by the administration to, in my view, to harass me and to try to, you know, try and have a chilling effect on reporting that i was doing. it was -- if you remember what -- if you were around in 2005 or 2006, there was a lot in the press about that. so, it was a fairly concerted effort against both me and eric lishbla, my colleague at "the new york times." so, yeah, it got pretty intense. thanks. >> hello. i'm wondering how hopeful are you that this collective effort will make a dent? i remember that you said that this is just the beginning and what would follow? and a sideline question is, is this an opportunity to push again with the federal shield law? thank

so there's some debate even within the administration. among senior military officers, there is also some debate, disagreement not per se with the president but kind of clarifying what this mission is likely to look like and who is likely to carry out. i paraphrased a little bit. if the coalition that has been assembled on the ground where our air strikes are assisting, if this fails and there are threats to the united states and certainly we go back to the president and make recommendations that may include the use of ground forces. the following day, the army chief of staff, general odierno emphasized you have to have ground forces capable of going in and rooting out isis but it's clear in the context of remarks said that he wasn't talking acted u.s. ground forces. he was really placing quite a bit of emphasis on the ground forces there, the forces in the region. so there's still a question. if there must be boots on the ground, must they be american boots. and as i say some say not necessarily or at least in the case of general dempsey,

do you believe that the administration is planning on bringing ebola patients from here t? ere's increasing evidence that they are making those plans, the media -- members of the media, my office have received confidential communications saying that those plans are being developed and that's why i wrote to the administration last week to secretary kerry and to secretary johnson asking them to confirm or deny it and to produce any documents related to that. this is simply a matter of common sense that if you are concerned about thisds problem spreading and this is a deadly disease that we're even concerned about the great health care workers when they come back not spreading it, we certainly shouldn't be bringing in the patients. >> so did somebody leak to you, a whistleblower type tell you this? >> we received information from within the administration. >> and have you received in response to your letter asking whether it's true? >> no, we have not received any response from the administration nor have we received, by the way, a response from an earlier letter that i and tra

with commissioner antonini's assessment i won't repeat first, the legislation that will be the administration process for the physical changes to a property that accounts for handicaps or changes i know i read in the report that this building included an elevator and so my question to the project sponsor is is this elevator for accounting for a particular handicap or particular issue and to the zoning administrator if this legislation passed we'll be looking at something different. >> ascertainment was a big deal for the project my mother can't actually come into this 0 house as it stands she can't walk up one flight of stairs meier my parents a parents are european it's important to take care of them in their twilight this is important and the elevator addresses that issue. >> to the zoning administrator you're familiar with the legislation. >> are you refer to the accomodation legislation. >> yes. >> part of that legislation will do is that relative to this case is help provide for administration surveillance and modifications for people with disabilities so without looking at specifically
