united nations today. former u.s. ambassador to the united nations john bolton joins us.assador, give us your thoughts about what the president was saying today. it sounded very familiar to other speeches he has made and why it is or is not the right tone to be striking at this moment. >> well, it was obviously intended to be the president's farewell address. his eighth and final at the u.n. and it continued themes that he has been talking about there annually for eight years. particularly what he calls global integration, which is a more benign phrase for what secretary of state john kerry once called a borderless world, which he said we needed to be getting ready for. it was intended to be sweeping rhetoric, but i thought a lot of it was pedestrian. a lot of it was american politics. but what was most interesting was the way the president talked about the european countries in america absorbing more refugees and the distinction or the lack of connection between the refugee flows that he wants to encourage and the threat of international terrorism. it was a very, very ab

former ambassador the united nations john bolton on that as our coverage continues. i'm claudine and i quit smoking with chantix. by the time i was 30, i said "that's it, i'm a smoker for life." i wanted to be a non-smoker and i did it thanks to chantix. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. chantix reduced my urge to smoke some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. some had seizures while taking chantix. if you have any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of mental health problems, which could get worse or of seizures. don't take chantix if you've had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. if you have these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away as some can be life-threatening. tell your doctor if you have heart or blood vessel problems, or develop new or worse symptoms. get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or

ambassador to the united nations. john bolton is a fox news contributor.ood to see you ambassador. the first thing wants to talk about there will be is a lot she can't recall. she can't recall when she got security clearance, she can't recall when she was trained on how to handle classified information. she can't recall managing secrets of special access programs, and that's just the beginning. i'm just wondering, you must have had some of these courses in how to handle secrets. do you recall? >> i remember those sorts of things because if you are conscious of the need to protect classified information, you remember what the rules are. this is a good example, this category of can't recalls that you mentioned, a good example of why this defendant money is not believable. i think a lot of it is outright falsehood. she was on the senate armed services committee for six years before she became secretary of state. she had to have a much better knowledge of what was classified and what was not classified. how you hand if she didn't, if that's really her testimon

. >> let's turn to former ambassador to the united nations john bolton. mr.assador, what do you make of that. >> this is simply one more piece of evidence at how wretched this entire iran nuclear deal it is. how involved it is with many other aspects of objection nabil iranian behavior over the years. the capture of hostages. capture of ballistic missiles unique and sole purpose is to be a delivery system for the nuclear weapons. it shows that the obama administration was prepared to pay essentially any price to get that deal. and that's what they did and they kept it from congress and the american public because they knew what the reaction would be. >> the bank was associated with the financing of the nuclear program, right? >> and the ballistic missile program. >> more importantly perhaps or more clearly. you heard the state department spokesman say well, we really looked into what that bank was up to and we decided it was -- didn't really qualify to have sanctions on it anymore. what do you say about that argument? >> it certainly is a tribute to the fbi o

national security in this fall's campaign, we are joined by former ambassador to the united nations ambassador john bolton good to be with you. >> you have known colin powell for along time as a lot of us have. certainly his comments about donald trump will not go down well with trump supporters and sharpen a question that has often been asked in this town which is he really a republican? >> well, it's a good question. you know, he, himself, said that when he went into the military in the early 1960's, he was a rockefeller republican. it's a real testimony to the nonpolitical nature of our military that when he left the military in the 1990s, he was still a rockefeller republican. the problem is there weren't any rockefeller republicans left other than him. >> he certainly benefited from his connection to the republican administrations. he was ronald reagan's national security advisor, right? >> that is correct. >> then george h.w. bush made him chairman of the joint chiefs and secretary of state under george w. bush. he has a long record of serving under republican presidents who gave him opportunities.

ambassador to the united nations and fox news, contributor john bolton. let's start the show. >>> the terrorists are listening to what we say, and they find donald trump very rude. that's according to hillary clinton who on monday accused trump of putting the u.s. in danger with his campaign rhetoric. in the aftermath of bombings in new york and new jersey clinton said the gop nominee has helped isis frame their attacks as part of a war between islam and the west. >> a lot of the rhetoric we have heard from donald trump has been seized on by terrorists. in particular isaac. they are looking to make this into a war against islam. >> clinton then implied trump has committed treason. >> the kinds of rhetoric and language mr. trump has used is giving aide and comfort to our adversaries. >> on monday trump toned down his rhetoric. not really. he suggested our law enforcement should racially proy file air -- profile arab men. they will profileful they will see somebody that is suspicious and they will profile. they will take that person and check out. do we hav
