i did not think of them as going to washington dc. to file a complaint about sexual harassment. i think if the tables were turned on me. unless she can support her claim of sexual harassment then we cannot recognize what she has to say. and it really should've been whether or not i have credible evidence that went to the character and the fitness of this particular nominee. in what i provided for credible evidence. as long as it went to character in fitness. i maintained that whether a came to the level of a complaint for sexual harassment it really was not the issue. the issue was the character of this individual. you say in the book that i found no sympathy from in the media. i'm sure there were some synthetic people within the media. that was not what i experienced when i returned to my home after being in a hotel and return to my home at 5:00 in the morning. to be ambushed by someone with a camera and light. there may have a sympathy but i did not feel it. i would have realized that the intrusion on my life and they would've handled it with a lot more sensitivity. what would

earlier a wreath was laid at the memorial inside washington, dc by his widow, cindy.rvice but also the military service he gave during his life. and you get a real idea from those who knewjohn mccain well that he was someone who really remembered that time with a certain amount of trepidation. he was of course shot down over hanoi on a captured, interrogated and that left him with lasting injuries. you could probably also argued that it gave him a real sense of duty. you will see in those who had gathered inside the cathedral many in military uniform. during the service you will hearin uniform. during the service you will hear in the united states navy bands play, because each of those things we re play, because each of those things were deeply important tojohn mccain himself. you can see those who have gathered prepared to begin this service which has been meticulously planned. it is going to reflect all of those different senses and moments that we re different senses and moments that were important in john different senses and moments that were important injohn mcc

but it has not been clear, even within the courts at washington, dc, the first time that prosecutors for misconduct. the second time was overturned in an appeals court because the prosecution withheld evidence from the defence. the third time was a few weeks ago, ending in a mistrial. and now the federal government is announcing, for a fourth time, that they will try these guys. as clear—cut as you want to make it, evenin clear—cut as you want to make it, even in the usjudicial system it is not quite as clear, not quite a massacre that you would characterise. that was not my nerve —— were. and the case that i don't think you can deny is that the investigation launched into blackwater after this investigation and your personnel opened fire on civilians at a roundabout in baghdad itself, the investigation uncovered some very worrying facts. for example, according to the committee of investigation, like water personnel participated in 195 incidents between january 2005, september 2007 in which 84% of the cases, your people fired first. yes and if they follow the rules of engagement, tho

various people referred me to lawyers that they knew in the washington, dc area.know i grew up in this area, so i asked some family members and friends and they referred me to, like, the divorce attorney that might know somebody that might know somebody and i ended up interviewing several law firms from the dc area. did anybody besides friends and family refer you to any attorneys?” think that the staff of dianne feinstein's offer suggested the possibility of some attorneys. including those sitting on either side of you? not both of them, no. we have heard a lot about fbi investigations. when did you personally first request an fbi investigation? i guess i first started talking about the possibility of a hearing i thought there would be an investigation. would that investigation. would that investigation be something he would have submitted to an interview? i would be happy to co—operate with the fbi, yes. would you be interviewed by staff members from this committee? absolutely. you mentioned some gofundme accounts, are there any other efforts outside of your own

let's go live now to washington dc and our correspondent, chris buckler. he editorial is still rattling around washington. what is the latest? as far as donald trump is concerned it is firmly on his mind. he denied some reporters that, in his work, that he was stomping around the white house and screaming like a lunatic. he said that was not the case but he did say that was not the case but he did say that that the person who wrote the article is a gutless coward and he has called again for the new york times to publish their name because he says it is a national security issue. within the context of all of this and the speech that is happening in montana, we have had official after official lining up in the white house. list too long to read out, of individual saying it was not them because there is a feverish guessing game going on inside washington, dc and inside the white house. they have been looking closely at the editorial which is damning about president trump and what is happening inside the white house to try and see if they can see any clues, any

but it has not been clear, even within the courts at washington, dc.at prosecutors brought charges it was thrown out for prosecutorial misconduct. the second time, overturned in an appeals court because prosecution withheld evidence from the defence. third time was a couple of few weeks ago, a mistrial. now the government is announcing, for a fourth time, they'll try these guys. as clear—cut as you want to make it, even in the usjudicial system it's not quite as clear, and not quite a massacre as you would want to characterise. that's not my word. sure. what is also the case, and i don't think you can deny it, is that the investigation launched into blackwater after this investigation — let's not forget your personnel opened fire on civilians at a roundabout in baghdad itself — the investigation uncovered some very worrying facts. for example, according to the committee of investigation, blackwater personnel participated in 195 incidents betweenjanuary 2005, september 2007 in which 84% of the cases, your people fired first. sure. and if they follow the

in the classic washington dc fence. for president trump is about loyalty. as the mueller investigation is moving along, the loyal heat becomes a test. it will challenge the administration on capitol hill, particularly with senate republicans if he were to dismiss rod rosenstein replace jeff flake, lindsey graham, and others at the end of the spear and what they will do. orrin hach was leaving, from utah. all of these folks will become important where they cannot afford to really lose any both the senate if they are going to try to confirm judge brett kavanaugh. >> republicans do not want this to happen before haves and the have nots is finished and before returns. but there is no way at all. slightly sonoma state university political science professor, david mcewen. thank you. >> a uc berkeley employee accused of being the nor cal racist made his first court appearance today. our crime report henry lee is on the sacrament the courthouse. what happened. >> -- truck he was the rapist who attacked many women while he worked as a safety specialist.>>reporter: a
