terrorists so that's one thing. >> neil: and this will test our relation ship with russia. >> it is. it's a different policy as in eastern europe. so between all of this, you have a deal maker with president trump that will leak at the strategic alignments of interests and say hey, mr. putin, it's time to talk. and the same with north korea and the chinese. we haven't put pressure on them in the past. these meetings will give a new opening for that. they're doing things in the south china sea and building islands that we don't like. let's get concessions elsewhere as part of a larger deal. >> neil: well-put, pete. thank you. meantime, the president has made it clear he's not a fan of susan rice and thinks she might have committed a crime. a key house intelligence committee will be looking at that and also looking at how soon and how quickly she can testify. after this.
