the obama administration said the u.s. was likely to lose a court case in an international tribunal over iran's claim to some 400 million in assets that the u.s. froze after the first hostage seizure in iran in the late 1970s. officials said the settlement of that claim the tune of $1.7 billion overall came just as washington was finalizing a separate prisoner swap for the four americans who were set free. >> there was a conscious strategic decision that was made on the part of the obama administration as we were implementing the deal to prevent iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon to resolve other longstanding concerns we had with iran. >> now, the state department acknowledges this was not the typical way we do business sending $400 million in hard currency, foreign currency aboard an unmarked cargo plane to be delivered more or less in the dead of night to tehran. they said they were forced to get creative because the u.s. does not have diplomatic relations with iran. critics are saying this amounts to ransom and it has

i'll point out it's not -- the obama administration is not the first one to pay for -- to get hostages out. seemingly, every administration has sadly been doing it for a while. >> we'll talk about whether that is legal in a minute. in terms of threats to u.s. citizens, there was another iranian american just taken a couple weeks ago. mr. shahani. >> other hostages, as well. some of them have dual citizenship. listen, this is a really dangerous gamble, giving iran the cash. it gives them incentive, basically, to take people. it endangers more americans because iran wants $2 billion, estimated, in frozen assets. they want that money. they have said, we want also the u.s. to pay $10 billion or whatever it is for american hostilities. here's the thing, the white house will say, whatever iran does is an aberration. it's harassing our ships. unauthorized act. >> even after 250 this year. >> yeah, that's right. this is really about cementing in place president obama's foreign policy legacy and getting the iran nuclear deal. >> let's move it forward to a possible hillary clinton presidency. th

of the entire planet and steps that president bush took at the end of his administration to staunch the crisis were largely picked up by the obama administration and extended. there was not an abrupt shift in policy. it is interesting that the person whom president obama picked to be his first treasury secretary and therefore really the navigator of the course in responding to the financial crisis was tim geithner. who had been a democratic treasury appointee earlier in his career but at the time of the financial crisis during the bush administration was the president of the new york fed. geithner was part of the triumvirate. that triumvirate is the one that really charted out a course for responding to the crisis on him president bush relied in making his decisions. there was an unusual element of continuity between the bush and obama administrations and the stewardship in response to the crisis. it has to be regarded as one of the most effective government responses in the history of economic policymaking. >> to really underscore that, josh and his typically modest way has not stated as starkly as i think it was. i think you m

the reason for that is the administration, the obama administration kept in place tough financial implications against iran. >> reporter: many republicans say this is the classic case of ransom, paul ryan released a statement earlier today reading if true, this report confirms our long-standing suspicion that the administration paid a ransom in exchange for americans unjustly detained in iran, goes on to say the public deserves an explanation of the length this administration went to in order to accommodate the world leading state sponsor of terrorism. donald trump weighed in on twitter calling it a, quote, scandal and his campaign chair this afternoon said you better bet this is something trump will touch on in the days to come. trish: the obama administration puts $400 million in foreign currency, right onto an unmarked cargo plane, fly the plane to tehran just as american hostages are released, this is all just coincidence? the optics do not look good. former cia agent mike baker, famed investigative reporter judith miller and wall street journal foreign affairs correspondent jay solomon, t

a federal judge in texas has temporarily blocked the obama administration's guidelines on transgenderhroom policies in public schools. they permitted students to use restrooms that correspond toom their chosen gender identity. the district court judge granted the nationwide injunction latena sunday-- a move that had been sought by 13 states. still, white house spokesmansm josh earnest defended the president's directive today in washington. >> our goal has been from the beginning to provide for the safety, and security, and dignity of students all acrossde the country. we certainly have the confidencf in the legal basis for issuingin that guidance. but obviously, we're respectful of rulings that are put forward by federal judges. and i'll let my colleagues at the department of justice speak to the next step in the legal process. >> woodruff: we'll explore the implications of the texas ruling later in the program. russia has stopped using an iranian military base to launch air strikes in syria-- for now.c the announcement came just houro after iran's foreign minister criticized moscow,

for the obama administration said it is it old news. y clinton's team said she was not in office. how does it play politically. >> the obama administration needs to drop the charade and admit it paid 400 million ransome to iran and by doing so, they put a target on every american's back and no surprise that since the deal was executed iran took even more american hostage and the reason why hillary clinton was capable. she started negotiations in 2011 and naive that iran is nothing more than hard liners that are bent to injuring america and her allies. >> two issues are being discussed. whether or not somebody or people like the iran deal that was cut months ago. the second part is was it money toward a ransome. republicans love to use the words. no way, it was a deal that was cut. and on top of the deal cut, and the money would be transferred over to iran, we got prisoner ares and so we did well. we did better than what the original deal. >> the wall street journal totally disputes the claim. the hostages were held on the runway until an

the obama administration was obviously lying about that. at if the e-mails showed she really was lying about the fact the clinton foundation didn't have influence on state department policy. that would be a really big whopper of a lie. >> i have to leave it there. nice to talk to you. >> thank you. >>> as the president wraps up his vacation in martha's vineyard, he's going to get off the golf course and follow in the footsteps of donald trump. he's going to head to louisiana to see firsthand. he's come under criticism for not interrupting that vacation, playing golf to see the devastation in louisiana. coming up we'll have a live report from martha's vineyards with the details. >>> the pentagon warning the syrian regime after air strikes hit dangerously close to american forces. what it means for the u.s. and its allies in the region. we'll talk about it. i absolutely love my new york apartment, but the rent is outrageous. good thing geico offers affordable renters insurance. with great coverage it protects my personal belongings should they

what about going after the obama administration? pened on their watch. >> all on their watch, and there's one common theme here. they're all, whether obama or whether clinton, they're all within the purview of the state department which seems to be a fiefdom which he has considerable influence over. i want to ask you, kellie ann conway, the first woman to lead a republican presidential campaign, she says there are shy voters, undercover voters who will make the difference in the election for donald trump irrespective of polls? what do you think? >> if you are complaining about the polls, your guy is probably losing. when trump was up in the polls he cited them constantly, he couldn't speak two or three sentences without telling you how well he is doing in the polls. i'm winning in the polls, that's what he would say constantly. now that the polls say something different, pollsters are weighting things wrongly, people are hiding their beliefs, i think it is a sign their guy is down. >> jason riley always with great insight and [ dynam

this is a settlement that the obama administration negotiated. there is another $2 billion iran wants that is in new york banks. the supreme court said no. that money goes to victims of iranian-funded terrorism. harris: lisa in here. >> why should we believe anything that the obama administration is saying in the first place? ben rhodes, deputy national security advisor, has already bragged about key deceiving the media and public. why should we believe anything they say in the first place? secondly this is consistent with the obama administration's theme on foreign policy i look on foreign policy alienating our friends and bringing our enemies closer. bee end fromming our enemies. iran is country whose supreme leader said death to america. yet we reward them with $100 billion. this is the largest state sponsor of terrorism since 1984 yet we allow them and set them up to get a nuclear weapon in the next decade. this is consistent with president obama, the obama administration's policies which is very troubling. >> so many things that josh earnest

and i wonder whether the obama administration is giving her some space, some room, to distance herselfthis policy and really put obama's legacy in some ways at risk. >> but hold on a moment. is that the right thing to do for the white house, to be communicating in certain ways for how it should appear for hillary clinton, who is running for president? we know that president obama is in her camp. but we're talking about his actions and how he communicates with the american people. >> i think the consequence of this could be very serious. it could not only squander president obama's legacy of peacefully resolving our difference with iran over the nuclear issue, but i think it could further erode our position in the middle east and increase the problems we have there. i think it is a very, very risky tack to take. but i can't really explain it other than for the politics here in the united states. it has very little to do with iran. >> hillary, thank you so much for joining me this morning. hillary man levy writ. >> thank you. >>> still to come, donald trump and his running mate, mike pen

of the obama administration effort to be more transparent about the operations. last month, the beginning of july they put out the official understanding of their statistics, how many strikes like this there had been. how many combatants, terrorists they thought they had killed, and civilians killed as a result. those numbers are controversial low. now obama says going forward his successor should put out numbers like that every year. >> considering these are policy guidelines what happens a few months from now with a new president in office? >> well, because this is not a statute, any future president can resend, revoke, modify or ignore any executive order, executive director, policy guidance. in fact the guidance itself contemplates the rules when they're not will rules. the president can wave the process and standards if he or she wants to in a extraordinary circumstance. it list lists examples. if there is a move without time to go through the meetings and deliberations and a reason to do it the president says do it but come to me for permission to wave the

the obama administration denies it. this is appalling. this is not how we should be running our foreign policy. it is one of the problems that we see where iran looks at the u.s. and looks at us as this weak country willing to give concessions to iran while they play us like a fiddle. i think this is incredibly serious. i think the fact that they're still holding american hostages there in iran and the fact that we can't stand up to them, i think it's a fundamental problem of this administration. >> i'll tell you what, we've got to go. i'll tell you, all you're doing is encouraging more of the same activity. going leave it there. >> that's right. >>> coming up, this tweet by th locally transmitted zika cases in florida. see you at the top. >>> the p.c. police targeting liberals like ellen degeneres. she photo shopped an image of herself on usain bolt's back saying, "this is how i'm running errands from now on." some tweeted accused her of this. >> i think in the last year, donald trump has mainstreamed meglomaniacs. >> it's trump's fault?

i think this is the single biggest scandal of the obama administration. tory books are written about this in 20, 30, 0 years and we learn what was in the usama bin laden document kach people will be appalled what was withheld from intelligence analysts, the ways that the books were cooked and what the american people didn't know as they had to make important decisions about the future of the country. >> the iran deal is not going away. those chickens will come back to roost. >> that is it for the panel. stay tuned to one set of polls where democrats are clearly behind. what if a company that didn't make cars made plastics that make them lighter? the lubricants that improved fuel economy. even technology to make engines more efficient. what company does all this? exxonmobil, that's who. we're working on all these things to make cars better and use less fuel. helping you save money and reduce emissions. and you thought we just made the gas. energy lives here. at ally bank, no branches equals great rates. it's a fact. kind of like grandkids equals free tech s

but the obama/clinton administration is determined to keep shrinking our military until you know what ultimately is going to happen and it's not going to be good, that i can tell you. president obama has said that he thinks the greatest threat we face is global warming. remember president obama and hillary clinton, sometimes referred to as crooked hillary -- he can't even say the words radical islamic terrorism. can't even say it. they don't want to get involved. everybody knows what's happening. they can't say the words. now, while president obama and hillary clinton are shrinking america's military, they're also expanding, think of it, expanding through allowing it to happen, the military of iran. they're doing this with their disastrous deal that puts iran on the path to nuclear weapons and gives them another $150 billion not to mention the $400 million in cash which turned out to be a ransom payment after all, just like i said. in other words, our president lied to us. he lied to us. let's also not forget that hillary clinton's disastrous middle east policies unleashed isis on to

the administration for putting u.s. lives in danger. what's going on? >> reporter: is it a case of deny, deny, deny? the obama administration continues to say the $400 million flown into iraq under cover of darkness wasn't a ransom payment. >> let me be clear, the united states does not pay ransoms. the only people making that suggestion are right wingers in iran who don't like the deal and people in the united states who don't like it deal. >> and as reported by the wall street journal was the first installment in a $1.7 billion settlement to resolve a arms deal from the 1970s and telling fox news it was purely coincidental that the payment happened at the same time iran released four u.s. prisoners. and they're claiming this deal is putting american lives at risk by putting a price on our heads. and tom cotton among the cors of voices demanding full, honest answers and details on where the money is going. >> they gave it to them in cold hard cash that we cannot trace and that even the white house press secretary admitted may be going into the hands of uger terrorist organizations. >> since the cash was air

and the obama administration continuing to stonecall on this. people are wondering, you're on the cotton family farm in arkansas. i must say it looks like a very nice place to be on this sunday. president obama didn't keep it a secret. he announced last january we were giving this money to iran. let's look back at what he said. >> iran and united states are now settled a long-standing iranian government claim against the united states government. iran will be returned its own fus, interest, but much less than the amount iran sought. >> now, i understand the point you made in your first answer. we're talking about $400 million in cash, ahn unmarked plane, we're talking about the hostages waiting on the tarmac until the plane landed, but you certainly would agree that the administration did not keep this payment, maybe the nature of it, but they didn't keep the payment secret. >> well, they didn't keep the nature of it. straight cash in 500 euro notes, a note notoriously used to terrorism around the world so much so that the european union is takin

the obama administration has been very forth right. ave been stymied by european allies sanctions against the russian government. they are kind of at wits end in terms of what they can accomplish over there. so this is going to be a persistent problem that will last into the next president which with s. why we are starting to see some of these issues bubble up on the campaign trail. >> charles, your take on ukraine, putin, crimea and kind of whether putin feels i had real threat from nato, from the u.s. or anybody else as he continues to act in that region? >> he feels nothing. no resistance. even the economic sanctions are collapsing. the europeans are looking for a way out. you would think that the we can he plays oil prices are down dependent economy with the fact that there were sort of semisanctions applied. russia is playing a weak hand extremely strongly. right now it's in a position to take eastern ukraine if it wants. and you look at what putin did in 2008 in the waning days of the bush administration it went into georgia and d

more fallout tonight for the obama administration. accusations continue after they admitted to giving iran millions of dollars just before american prisoners were released. and the kurdish wedding party that turned deadly. what police are now saying about terrorism. >>> in turkey at least 22 people were killed and 94 hurt in an explosion at a wedding hall in southeastern turkey. officials say it may have been triggered by a suicide bomber. they sealed off the site and forensic teams are on scene now searching for survivors. you'll remember this video of a 5-year-old boy rescued in aleppo this week. he's come to symbolize the ongoing problem. the boy's 10-year-old brother died from his injuries in the air strike. >>> in washington republicans demanding answers from the obama administration after it disclosed a $400 million payment to iran was contingent on the release of four american prisoners. they say he paid a ransom the administration says it was leverage. >> the obama administration is not backing down. they're refusing to call it

key strategic difference that donald trump wants to make in the fight against isis that the obama administration has not? >> first of all, very important to know that between now and 2017, many things will change on the ground, and they will change for either mrs. clinton or mr. trump. so anything we're projecting right now has to do with the moment. there are major differses. first, in looking at iraq, syria and of course libya has to be dealt with. level number one, what forces are going to be engaging isis o the ground? is it kurdish forces? the iraqi army? or others in syria? why do you ask this question? because we don't want to end up with a sect controlling another sect on the ground, which will sound the next war. second, there is also who will take over after liberation from isis. should it be the locals, national, the governments or a coalition of regional forces that will help them? and thirdly, of course, what is the future of civil wars such as in syria. who will stay? who will go? i think we have tremendous differences in how to go in, how the manage and, of course, the negotiation

administration said we won't allow this stuff any more come they do that? >> it's theoretically possible, sure. as we discussed earlier that happened during the course of the obama administration there wa nothing came of it. and i think we are starting to get to the critical mass or momentum with the number of states at least that have it now as a medicinal alternative that it might be a little bit politically apprehensive to take that type of position now. there are a lot of people who really aggressively claim that it's very helpful for the cancer patients sufferers and that nature. >> one quick think before we talk about the taxation of this. that's a big selling point for the propaneinants of this. is that overplayed in your view? >> yes, it's overplayed simply because of the magnitude that we would encounter if it passed and we taxed it. the campaigners will talk about the fact that this will give us a tremendous amount of revenue to hand over to our schools and for health care programs and things of that nature. they have estimated that at 15% given what we think would sell you are talking $45 million in tax revenue. that's about one-half of 1% of arizona'
