Limits what we can do in a democracy. but i think there is a danger when we start talking about the role of our intelligence agencies that either wittingly or unwittingly sometimes misinformation or disinformation about the nature of the activity and nature of the authorities enters into the debate in a way that eventually damages or limits our ability to play to the edge of our lawful authorities and the interest of our security and safety. i just want to get an idea from you about what you thi...

Treacherous area when were trying to push over an edge where those edges are not defined or congress has not done its job. thank you, mr. chairman. >> mr. chairman, thank you. congressman, during the campaign, the president-elect essentially laid out something that looks to me like outsourcing surveillance. he says about russian hacking, id love to have that power. and he encouraged the russians to hack secretary clintons e-mails and suggested they be provided to the press. but were now in a dif...

Influence. its the twilight zone. another thing, this is not a war against the cia. most of this information about the hacking is coming out of national security agency and they have gotten into fiber optics and the meta data and the russian code and assange going on about a 14-year-old being able to hack the desk is nonsense. this is very sophisticated code that has been established by both the fbi -- >> there was according to the report in the "new york times" about how this happened. there wa...

The whole question reuse, have they used this code in the past to hack, yes, in the ukraine. and youve also got the meta data. this is as good as it gets. this is clearly a russian hack, yes, somebody else could have stolen the code, or they could have given it away, but theres too many factors in this to leave any doubt, it was russian intelligence who got into the dnc and hillarys computers. theres no way he can deny this. en and i think this administrations going to make that very clear. >> w...
