In fact, i almost delayed this speech by about two hours its so interesting. >> by the way, did you see another one? another one came in today. this wikileaks is like a treasure trove. >> take your partisan -- put your part son instincts aside. what you have there from what we now know is a candidate for president praising -- those e-mails allegedly obtained from a state actor russia interfering in the elections. during the campaign mike pompeo was a congressman and said he praised. now hes the ...

Discipline not to act on a provocation like watching pictures of children killed with gas, but that is the challenge that terrorism poses, right? because its always a temptation to redirect and respond to provocations like this, even when its not consistent with your strategy. discipline has not been the hallmark of president trumps political career. >> do you -- its interesting you use the word "terrorism" to describe this attack. i think of it as a war crime, to the extent that we know it was ...

One of the hottest issues around. and what you have here is an allegation that the russian government is actually colluding with criminals to get access to this information. >> yeah. >> reporter: this is really significant and a reason why theres been so much concern about the dnc hack, et cetera, we are seeing intrusion into americans lives but around the world trying to figure out who they are, what theyre doing, whether theres compromising information about them and when you see this kind of ...

>> here is where it stands. intelligence investigation looking into this. the fbi looking at whether theres criminal activity, the c anchts. trying to determine what it lost and how it lost it. all possibilities on the table. could it have been an employee inside the cia, could it have been a contractor, some outside hacker that somehow got in, a state actor. a lot of people speculating, pure speculation. could it have been russia or another state actor, someone overseas. getting a lot of atte...

You have done a great service to the united states because you helped get donald trump elected. >> this is a man that always said we shadow our sourcing. we do all we can to not even know where they come from and now hes doing exactly that. he is right to hammer hannity for not asking him did russia have any involvement with how you got it? he never asked him that and he never said that russia had nothing to do with it. hes saying he didnt get the e-mails from russia. those are very different pr...

Would take place. >> i assumed once the shawn hannity interview came to light thats what he was talking about. that he said we didnt get this from a state actor and we didnt get this from russia and sean hannity that speaks to mr. trump regularly shared that with him so thats what he was basing it on but im trying to interpret this. >> julian assange, he has people around him now that know intelligence. flynn is no joke when it comes to intelligence and julian assange is being run down by those ...
