Degree. but there are going to be hundreds of american troops outside of their bases in the years ahead training afghan soldiers on the front line and potentially more at risk. at the same time, too, taxpayers at home may know less and less about how that war is going. the one key indicator many took about how well the war is going, thats now classified because the afghan government and the coalition want it to be so. one less thing you will know at a key time. and more attacks like this, devast...

On the book were soldiers which are the true story behind the special forces deployed to afghanistan in the days following 9/11. the author of that book and executive producer of the film, doug stanton, joins us now to tell us more. thanks for being here. this story doesnt tell itself, but the story itself is so interesting that it lends itself to the new york times best-selling book in hollywood box office. how did you land on the idea of these 12 men? >> shortly after 9/11 they came out of afg...

Kade where we saw they were close to coming to a deal. there are people who see advantage to keeping this issue festering. as long as the issue is there they can claim republicans are not good to hispanics. on the right they dont want to deal at all because they dont want to legalize this illegal population. you see both bases fighting this proposal. most of of america and most of of the people in congress can easily come to a reasonable compromise if they dont listen to the fringes pushing them...

So i had a guest on last night, ive heard several gets on, you know, cable news throughout the landscape today saying, well, you know, jeffrey, it doesnt matter. the president has a right to fire whomever he wants. it doesnt really matter what the intent is but he didnt do it. >> thats just not true. thats not what the law is. here is a hypothetical example, if someone walked into the oval office and said here is an attache case full of cash. fire the director of the fbi. and the director -- and...

Griff: whats your reaction to this latest attack. >> you and i have been covering this thing out here and pete as well for 17 years. i repeat exactly what i told the last administration. the taliban, al qaeda, isis, haqqani network are not going to go away until they have no safe haven left and their safe haven is a place called pakistan and if iran has their way there will be another safe haven to the west of the country promoted by iran for hezbollah. hezbollah is rapidly becoming the expresse...

Capability. we should not just be talking about it. flying in a bomber for two or three days is not impressing anybody. lets put in place the resources that we need to thicken the defense in south korea and load up the bases with the capabilities that we need. stop sending military families to south korea. that doesnt make any sense to me whatsoever. it should be what we call an unaccompanied tour. troops only. >> neil: you think anything weird will happen? for the olympics. >> oh, i think if he...

Trump had a corrupt motive in trying to stop investigation into russia. and so why did he want robert mueller out of it? the theories that you mention, the bases, all sound quite minimal and not pretextural. whats the real reason for wanting to pull mueller out of it? if hes fired, it seems he would be replaced by someone else. so he does seem to think getting rid of the leader might get rid of the investigation. it kind of fits in that pattern of his behavior in the firing of comey. i think tha...

Investigators, openly suggesting an anti-trump secret society within the fbi. they keep pointing to text messages critical of then-candidate trump between two top fbi officials, peter strzok and lisa page, who both worked for a time on the mueller investigation and were also romantically involved. some republicans believe there may be even more damning evidence in an unknown number of missing texts between the two. now, this also could just be political warfare to distract from the russia invest...
