I think that keys into what mattis was saying about military options that dont hold seoul at risk because everyone says, well, were not going to do anything because of seoul. but mattis is saying, no, we are going to do things. and i think what hes going to do is basically start inspecting north korean ships on the high seas because we dont want the north koreans to sell missile s to iran or chemical weapons to syria. and i think that the administration is going to start to look at that and actu...

Considering bringing the bill to a vote by the end of the month if and only if he can get 50 republican senators to back it. that was the threshold he couldnt cross on the past obamacare replace and repealment effort. last time it was collins, murkowski and mccain and might be a flip of one of them, specifically mccain. why is that? >> reporter: peter, i talked to john mccain earlier in the day today and he said, look. he was still upset about the process. remember, that was a big reason he vote...

The table. what do you mean by him having drawn a red line and what are the potential consequences for it? >> thank you so much. i think the bottom line is calling something acceptable and very specific about it and repeatedly say that, then if that thing happens, and it looks by all accounts as though north korea on the brink or has already developed an icbm capable of reaching the continental united states, when that threshold is breached in a clear cut way, donald trump has made it very clear...

I thought that was a very odd coincidence by the way. but why was this case brought now when this shooting took place in 2011? >> well, thats a good we. the former circuit attorney brought these charges before she left office. i think it was due to the dna evidence, video evidence, i am not sure exactly what happened. but they pressured her for quite a while, given all the evidence, was this was a case that could meet the threshold of missouri state law, which is very hard to convict a police of...
