rumors involving the fbi. memorandaa number of where the secretary of the thesury was in charge of secret service and assured that findings would not impair the efficiency or the morale of the secret service. and again with the fbi, a possible connection between oswald. by that i do not mean anything sinister. to investigate the rumors. . >> the fbi conducted the basic line of investigation. the commission used its independent judgment wherever the fbi or secret service was involved, so they would not investigate themselves on the werects where they directly involved. i think the commission showed its independence in that regard by criticizing the fbi. by criticizing the secret service wherever the facts war and 10 on every subject where the federal bureau of investigation had contact with the area of investigation with which i was intimately connected, i was fully satisfied with their thoroughness and competence and integrity. despite mr. specter's defense, it is the opinion of cbs news that the role of the fb

basically the fbi file was in large part a consequence of the fbi tracking stokely. anyway. another point i wanted to make was the size of the movement. it was actually kind of small when you think about it. we were talking about the older generation. and how they were relatively more conservative. they were little more timid. anxious about this direct action phase of the civil rights movement. they were very comfortable with that. cleve's own father and mother did not want them to do this stuff. his father wrote this letter. come home and not dead, please. there was a generational divide there. very significant. it points to the fact, i think, the leaders of the direct action phase of the civil rights movement, 1960s, fundamentally were very courageous. they understood that they were literally putting their lives at risk. not just their lives, but other people's lives. we talked about this in the book talked about going to mississippi in 1964. after the three civil rights workers were murdered. i am responsible. not just for trying to get people to vote, but if i get people

the fbi said it didn't go through, it only went in a short distance. the warren report said it went clean through and exited. there was evidence any law court would have demanded. the actual photographs of the autopsy and the x-rays. mr. cronkite: almost from the day the commission published its report, its decision to omit those vital x-rays and photographs has been under attack. only that physical evidence, say the critics, can finally resolve the debate over how many bullets struck the president, where they came from, and where they went. the central questions in the argument over how many assassins fired. more than one critic has charged that the autopsy record is not the original autopsy but has been changed to conform with the commission's theories. after a silence, the doctor that headed the autopsy team agreed to re-examine those disputed photographs and x-rays and review the findings for this broadcast. here is what he said. exactly the way it was delivered and written. mr. cronkite: yet it seems like one of the most serious errors with the dec

it passes the bullet through resident kennedy's body. fbi said it did not go through, only a short distance. the worn report said -- warren report send -- said it went clean through and exited. there was evidence i think any lawyer or law court would demand, that is the actual photographs of the autopsy and the x-rays. >> almost from the day, the warren commission published its report, its decision to admit those final x-rays -- omit those final x-rays has been under attack. with that physical evidence, finally resolve the debate over how many bullets struck the president, where they came from, and where they went, the central question of the argument over, how many assassins opened fire in the plaza? one critic is charged with the autopsy record in the worn report, it is not the original autopsy but has been changed to conform with the commission's theory. to remember that, after a silence of three and half years, the doctor who headed the autopsy team of the naval hospital agreed to re-examine those dispute photographs of x- rays, and revi

edgar hoover that oswald was never employed in any capacity by the fbi. the commission checked the fbi's own files but mentions no other investigation. and it follows the same curious procedure with the cia. taking the word of top cia officials that oswald had no connection with that agency either. the commission came to the sweeping conclusion that there was absolutely no type of inform and or undercover relationship between an agency of the u.s. government and lee harvey oswald at any time. elsewhere, the warren report argues persuasively the difficulty of proving a negative, in that case that oswald was not a member of a conspiracy. you remember that it hedged its conclusion saying only there was no evidence of a conspiracy. yet the commission had no hesitation in asserting another far-reaching negative, that oswald was not involved with any agency of the u.s. government ever. oswald's mother marguerite has always maintained that her son was a government agency and she favors the cia and that he was innocent of the assassination. >> mrs. oswald, what pr

that would morph into black power the fbi freaked out. it wasn't just let's disrupt thatat dissident movement it freaked out and those people knew there were informants from sncc they were not quite sure who it was all the time but sitting in those small meetings somebody was feeding information to the fbi. there was a small network of informants who were working with the fbi at the time and that would be fascinating to further research that and how they function and what theyow did. l but they couldn't quite put their finger on it. the fbi file was 3 inches thick. so stokely that must me, i don't know? [laughter] forget it. dove that tracking stokely. but the size of the movement was kind of small when you think about it so those of the older generation were relatively more t conservative and timid and anxious with the civil rights movement and were uncomfortable with that. his own father and mother's father wrote to this letter i want you to come home and not dead please. there was a generational divide that was very significant and it p

meaning the fbi. ese actions are not normal and they ignore the guidance of the white house counsel. flout the constitution and undermine our federal law enforcement agencies. you've been doing a deep dive on the fbi. where does this put the process right now? >> the president and his lawyers as we speak are trying to answer written questions from mueller about conspiring with the russians, and about obstructing the investigation into the russia hack. they're having a very difficult time doing it. if they answer truthfully, it might implicate the president. if they answer falsely, that's slammer time. >> mueller's grand jury will convene certainly tomorrow. he has a lot of work ahead of him. i think many, many months. he will certainly bring a fresh round of indictments in the near future. and looming over all this, is his final report. which has to be submitted up the chain of command in the department of justice. but will surely see the light of day. >> so -- you know, i mentioned obviously the docum

the fbi was well aware of it. at least starting from the end of the second world war, the bug to his office, they tapped his itne, they arranged to have trash. the trash was picked up outside every day. instead of going downstairs there was someone you had to go through-- who had to go gum wrappers and fox a bottle tops and try to find stuff. --y were under operation investigation but they managed to pull off asterisk -- operations. even though everybody knew that's what they were doing. having is because the fbi did not have the resources to follow them as closely as the kgb in the sovietcans union during the cold war. maybe is because the united states as is a target rich was not thathat it difficult for them. especially during the second world war and the years after the second world war when there was a tremendous amount of the soviet cause. the soviets had penetrated every aspect of american society. from the white house to the military to defense industry. there was a section in your book or you talk about ho

one of the things he would do is he controlled fbi interactions with the press. he did not want fbi agents blundering into reporters and trying to recruit them as sources and that ending up in the press and smearing the fbi. he had a strict rule of engagement. if anyone in the fbi wanted to contact a reporter, they had to do a background check on the reporter, they had to get permission from their superior at the fbi to probably would have prompted all the way up to hoover and it would take at least a month before they could have permission to approach somebody. there was an fbi counterintelligence officer who was assigned to follow all who were known kgb officers. aboutigured a workaround this. the result particular kgb officer. officer liked to tell american -- ask american reporters to have lunch with him. just to learn something about american society and the fbi really wanted to know what they were talking about. so what he would do, this fbi agent, he would call the --sident's of the national the president of the national press club up and he would say we kn

telling the fbi to sympathetic to the black power movement. her main associate, ernest and others had seen them at parties with black power advocate. they kept making these connections. the fbi tried to fire these two individuals. i've interviewed them and they are in my book. at one point, ernest was at a march where he saw, this is actually a piece from that report. that is his code number. added during the october 5 sympathy march, also known as bobby doctor of the u.s. civil rights commission was with audrey. a volunteer. writing in the report married as his doctor. yet they were holding hands. ernest had a picture of this, photos holding. pernicious by m e3 38. ask yourself why would they want this picture? i've interviewed bobby. i never had an affair with her. i was married. whether they actually acted on this or not is unclear. they wanted to use to contain these activists. there were lots of other examples of this. they tried to damage a number of people. he was convinced that he had a target on his back. he thought and others thought

jim baker was the general counsel at the fbi, meaning he was the top lawyer at the fbi. he left that position earlier this year in may. he's one of the handful of former senior fbi officials who was personally briefed by fbi director james comey about comey's troubling interactions with president trump concerning the russia investigation before trump ultimately fired james comey. this interview tonight is going to be the first time that i have ever spoken with jim baker. it's likely to be the first time you have ever seen him speak full stop. very much looking forward to having him here. i'll tell you specifically what we're going to be talking with him about in just a second. but as i mentioned, there have been a lot of heavy news stories that have broken today. in the afternoon the white house put out a stung and honestly, sort of strange statement about saudi arabia and the murder of a virginia resident and "washington post" journalist named jamal khashoggi. a couple of days ago "the washington post" was first to report and then a number of other news outlets subsequen

now, he hasn't fired the current director of the fbi, not yet. 's indicative of his displeasure. >> talk about, david chalian, the political ramifications of this article in the "new york times." especially as the democrats are getting ready to take over the majority in the house of representatives. >> well, right. so that's a whole new context for any of these developments, because there's now going to be an additional layer of scrutiny applied. but, wolf, as jeffrey noted there, are two things going on here. there's the banana republic piece of this that donald trump previewed for us in the second presidential debate with hillary clinton when he said, if he won the election he was going to have a special prosecutor investigate hillary clinton to which she replied, thank god somebody with donald trump's temperament is not in charge of the laws in this country. so this was fully litigated before the american public in the 2016 presidential debate. it's why we're not surprised at these developments any more. but it doesn't make them any less shocki

the former fbi director said no. ident is now apparently pressing this -- or has pressed this fbi director to begin some investigations, and this fbi director would appropriately say no. wolf, my message is regardless of whether you are republican or democrat, when the president tries to overstep his bound, give thanks. the system repeatedly said no, we're not going to do it. >> josh campbell, you are a former fbi supervisory special agent. you worked with comey for part of your career. how do you think folks at the fbi are reacting to all of this? >> so there are 130 some odd federal agencies in the united states government, independent agencies. there is exactly one agency that the president is fixated on, is obsessed on, and that is the department of justice, and the fbi i will throw in there as well. i think it is because he knows it is the only agency in government that can potentially harm him personally and also be used as potential bludgeon to go after his political enemies. i suspect, and i know this having s

the horizon. tom bateman, bbc news, gaza city. a new fbi hate crimes in the united states last year, the third straight year that attacks, motivated by bias, have risen in the country. law enforcement agencies reported more than 7,000 incidents in 2017, up 17% from 2016. caroline rigby has more. pittsburgh is the grieving for the 11 jewish pittsburgh is the grieving for the 11jewish worshippers pittsburgh is the grieving for the 11 jewish worshippers killed pittsburgh is the grieving for the 11jewish worshippers killed by gunmen motivated by religious hatred. last month's mass shooting was the worst anti—semitic attack in recent us history, but figures released by the fbi showed this was not an isolated incident. for the third year running, hate crimes are on the up in the united states, with black and jewish americans particularly affected. law enforcement agencies reported just over 6000 hate crimes in 2016, but that increased to more than 7000 last year. of those, around 2000 we re last year. of those, around 2000 were aimed at african—a

and it's through this that the fbi begins to identify the cell.ing patty hearst in sacramento. >> jack and micki scott, they stayed underground, then they decided to become public. they said they would not cooperate with the fbi trying to find the sla. so the fbi couldn't get any information, because nobody would talk to the fbi. for me, it was relatively easy to find these people and talk to them and they would all talk to me. i mean, all i'd have to say is "i'm writing for "rolling stone" and it wasn't difficult to get sources. everybody wanted to be in "rolling stone" one way or the other. i think we had 33 sources by the time we published. >> no, we know most of that came from jack. he'd like give them information that made it available to the fbi about intimate details of his harboring us. without claiming that it was him. >> jack scott was the primary source. jack sat down with howard and me and started telling us everything he knew. >> it seemed like it was his way of getting back at us for us not letting him have the materials, right? >> t

. >> paul manafort lied to the fbi, lied to the special counsel's office. >> to get a cooperation agreement, to throw that away is incredibly reckless. >> the tear gas is a very minor form, it's very safe. >> there has to be a compassionate answer that does not involve tear gassing children. >> people are throwing rocks it's not a good place to have your child. >> the previous administration said manufacturing is never coming back. you need a magic wand. well, we found the magic wand. >> it's insulting. he did not lift one finger. >> gm got $170 million this year, at the same time thousands of people lost their jobs. not fair. >> announcer: this is "new day" with alisyn camerota and john berman. >> all right. good morning and welcome to your "new day." just when you thought -- >> new gentleman i into your new jay, your new day, it's all new this morning. >> just when you thought you saw the last twist in the russia investigation there is this, the president's former campaign chair paul manafort is lying. that's what special counsel robert mueller's team announced overnight and those lies th

we were called to join the fbi to help them. ed in anywhere, we would. >> in 1974 lapd s.w.a.t. was probably the only s.w.a.t. team in the country that could have handled something like this. the fbi s.w.a.t. team was not totally formed. they were wanna-bes. >> the fbi s.w.a.t. team was trying to get their act together about how they wanted to do this. because these were dangerous suspects in there. a special agent in charge of the fbi office was there, who was a pain in the neck. he was yelling at the fbi s.w.a.t. guys, just go up and kick the doors, hurry up. hurry up. they hurried up and they ran across the backyard and booted the back door and ran in. >> the sla, they were gone. >> had there been an sla member in there with one of those sla weapons, there would have been a lot of dead fbi agents. they had still left thousands of rounds of ammunition they couldn't take with them. their propaganda, a lot of the stuff they handed out. there was a radio in there tuned to police calls in l.a. also a watch list that showed they alw

, tell the fbi to back off. and according to "the washington post," that request was made while another senior official was in the room and witnessed it. a man named mike pompeo, who at the time of this alleged incident, was the head of the cia. he's since gone on to become secretary of state. here's how he answered questions about what he saw and heard the day he was in the room, in the white house, when he was the supposed witness to the president trying to enlist the director of national intelligence to kibosh the investigation into his campaign as a complete historical mirror to what nixon got busted for. >> so, director, this account strongly suggests that the president asked you and director coats to interfere with then fbi director comey's investigations into the trump campaign's contacts with russia. what did president trump say to you and director coats in that meeting? >> senator, i'm not going to talk about the conversation the president and i had. >> did he ask you to do anything as it relates to tha

the fbi is here to support vent rar county. edge the question of sheriff deem, the los angeles response team is processing the cream seen here by hind me and the subject's vehicle and home on newbury park. we'll sursue the leads from that evidence wherever they take us and paint a picture of the frame of member as the suband many identify any potential radicalization. and at this point we don't have not have i indications or no other threats to the los angeles area. i can't imagine the stress -- i can't imagine what the families are going through. i appreciate your patience as we work through in a painstaking fashion the evidence recovery and crime scene analysis. it will be ongoing here for several days, and -- and just want to once again pass on our support to the vent ran county sheriff's department on behalf. the investigators here. >> i would like to introduce congresswoman julia brownlie. >> thank you, sheriff. >> i just have a few words to say. i'm the congresswoman who represents this area, and -- and i want to thank ve

jim bakker you served in the fbi at the highest levels, and left the fbi under much mooded circumstances. when you look at the relationship between the fbi and the white house what do you see as the greatest threat to the rule of law. >> well, thanks for having this panel. thanks to everyone who has spent time setting up. i appreciate the opportunity to be here. two things i guess. i guess the greatest threat to the rule of law it seems to me is a lack of sustained support for the institutions of justice, i'll call them. a lack of support of those institutions over time by the american people. if the american people don't support and trust those institutions then the system will not work. that's the bottom line. if i could back up a bit and maybe this will help explain a little bit how i am thinking about this. obviously in preparation for this panel and throughout the course of my career and working wi with ken and david for many many years trying to think about what are we talking about when we talk about the rule of law? what does that mean? it is tough to boil it down. i guess the wa

this is the kind of stuff that had him so worried when he was the fbi director. you think about the incidence of him sitting before the president and the president demanding loyalty from the fbi director in this kind of mafia-like fashion. fast forward to the oval office where the president is attempting to interfere with the fbi's criminal investigation into michael flynn, the national security adviser. this is what had him worried then. this is what he's been so vocal about now and speaking out. he wrote a book about it. i think he's also pleased the new york times made clear that president trump and his allies have been lying when they claimed he divulged classified information which he did not. i don't think he's surprised by the lies. i think it's just another indication, instance of this white house, this president attempting to interfere with the justice department in an extraordinary way. >> john dean, this is the definition of nixon. richard nixon used the irs to try to go after his political opponents. this is president trump asking to use the justice de

there is support within various law enforcement entities, including the fbi. uslim community as well is that there have been a lot of fbi investigations of individuals, or rather even just cold calls, not even investigations, of people who just happened to be of muslim or arabic backgrounds, and as a result of that what i would could fbi harassment, there has been this additional reticence to report things to the fbi. what we do as a civil rights organisation is to try to bridge that gap and try to encourage community members to come with a crime and bias incident reporting. there are mounting concerns about freedom of expression in egypt. a number of journalists and activists have been jailed on the charge of spreading fake news, which is illegal under egyptian law. human rights activists say new legislation passed injuly concerning social media has further curtailed independent comment. the government says it's trying to fight rumours that destabilise the country. sally nabil reports from cairo. that's amal fathy, a 34—year—old egyptian mother. she was ventin

fbi reports. believe me as i described in the book you do not want to be the subject of the fbi report anyone can ay anything about you and the agent will dutifully report it they will not cross-examine they are extremely sensitive records so in the nature of transparency the senators all agree that we will review those fbi files all the allegations that were ever made in closed session that they accept that discretion to have i hearings this issue are that issue. and brett kavanaugh sailed through that process. and senator feinstein did not bring this information forward even in that process of executive session that is the 1h hour nation - - nature. with the 11th hour one of the messages is very careful be very cautious about impeachment to the american people don't like impeachment it's a too good tool to have two hold people accountable yes, judges have been impeached in the past and convicted. >> a couple of things if i might much is made that this happened when judge kavanaugh was 17 years old but in some countries 17 -year-olds could be tried as an adult how many seventies tea over in front

wanted to order the justice department to prosecute his 2016 challenger, hillary clinton, and the former fbi director james comey. the lawyer, don mcgahn, rebuffed the president saying he had no authority to order a prosecution. mr. mcbegan said while he could request an investigation, that too could prompt accusations of abuse of power. to underscore his point, mr. mcgahn had white house lawyers right write a memo for mr. trump, warning if he ask law enforcement to investigate his rivals he could face a range of consequences, including possible impeachment." now both "the times" and cnn also report that trump repeatedly pressed officials at the justice department, including matt whitaker, when he was chief of staff to jeff sessions about the status of clinton-related investigations. trump's desire to use federal law enforcement to go after his rival is not new. we take you back now to the second presidential debate in st. louis. >> if i win, i am going to instruct my attorney general to get a special prosecutor to look into your situation. >> it's just awfully good that someone with the tem

>> he fired the director of the fbi because he didn't like the fact that the director of the fbi was supervising an investigation of the activities of foreign power, a hostile foreign power in the united states concerning an election. i think that's the biggest thing that happened. >> and yet everyone agrees he had the legal right to do that. but you're suggesting that undermined the norms >>well, i'm not everyone. so i'm not sure about that supposition. i don't want to go too deep into that but i would say -- let me speak in general. forgive me for purr suming. there are good legal arguments on both sides. what is the argument of the firing of jim comby w-- comey w illegal. >> i won't speak to that. the president has substantial authority under article ii and as a result of all the statutes that congress has passed to give him even more power as well as the fact that the president has the pulpit which includes twitter and can communicate directly with the american people and lead the country in a number of different ways. the president has hard power and soft power in a way that no o

because the top fbi lawyer lisa page in her deposition confessed. e entire time the fbi had the case, they never found any evidence of collusion. and that's significant because you have to have evidence in order to -- of a crime in order to appoint a special counsel. so that means the appointment of robert mueller was illegitimate. they never had any evidence. >> well, one of the things though that this brings up, you've got senator jeff flake. he says he's not going to even allow judicial nominations to get to the floor and go through unless they let him have his little bill that would require a protection of the mueller probe. there's no indication that anybody's pulling the plug on it. congressman, let me ask you to weigh in on that. why do we need to pass a bill to protect something that doesn't need to be protected by all indications? >> fundamentally, we don't. i think it's highly unconstitutional. you cannot tie the hands of a president who is empowered by the constitution. you can't say, mr. president, you can't fire this particular person. s

that they don't go to the fbi, the fbi goes to them. >> it was frustrating. i didn't feel like the fbi were getting that far. other than to say, yeah, we're working on it, we'll get her, we'll do this, we've got 67 agents on it, 104 agents, whatever it was. >> a few days after they kidnapped patty hearst, they issued a statement. communique, they called it. >> a letter from the symbionese liberation army came in the morning mail. and basically the communication confirms they are holding patricia hearst. >> the united federated forces of the symbionese liberation army, armed with cyanide-loaded weapons, served an arrest warrant upon patricia campbell hearst. >> the idea that randy hearst or anyone had to read the words of the sla was horrifying. but randy was willing to do it. he was willing to do anything. because he wanted to save his daughter's life. >> all communications through this court must be published in full in all newspapers and all other forms of the media. failure to do so will endanger the safety of the prisoner. >> our demands that they print a

david: you were responsible for the liaison between the fbi and congress. rstand congress better than i do. what do we make of these various investigations? there is the senate intelligence committee investigating. a report came out from the will gothat said they well into next year before they have a report on that. what can the senate intelligence committee essentially do and come out of that that would be destructive? -- instructive? is very different from the mueller investigation in that it is not a criminal investigation. the goal of the senate intelligence kid in the -- committee investigation is not to determine if laws were broken or not to obtain criminal indictments. it is more of a look into russian activity, whether there was russian activity and collusion with the trump campaign. it is an open-ended investigation with no logical and again -- end game. investigation is looking at a criminal wrongdoing with russian attempts and the trump campaign. i would submit the real investigation to watch remains the mueller investigation and not necessarily

reports because anyone can say anything about you and the fbi agents will dutifully report them, these are extremely sensitive records so even in an age of transparency senators all agree regardless of politics we will review fbi files, all the allegations that may have been made in closed session and they have the discretion that we are going to have hearings on this issue or that issue and so forth and brett kavanaugh sailed through the process and senator feinstein did not bring the information forward even in that process of executive session. that is the 11th hour nature of it. with respect to impeachment, yes. one of the messages in the book is be very careful, very cautious, house of representatives and senate, about impeachment, the american people don't like impeachment. it is an important tool to have, to hold people accountable but judges have been impeached in the past and convicted by the senate and removed from office. >> host: dave, independent, go ahead. >> caller: good morning, how is everybody in the country. a couple things if i might, much is made of the

the fbi will not comment on why. based more on testimony than on firing tests, the commission concluded that it was an easy shot for oswald to hit the president from that range. and that this rifle could not be fired in less than 4.3 seconds because it took about 2.3 seconds to operate the bolt mechanism between shots. -- glaring omissions in the commission, cbs news decided to make its own test. a moving target is harder to hit than a stationary one and the elevation might make a difference. the only elevation for the warren commission firing test was a 30 foot tower, less than half of the height of the sixth floor above elm street. cbs news had a target and tower track constructed to match exactly the heights and distances of dealey plaza. the track was matched with elm street. the target, a standard fbi silhouette moved by an electric motor at 11 miles per hour. approximately the speed of the presidential limousine. a rifle of the same make and age of oswald's was fitted with the same telescopic sights as his rifle
