we respect colonel vindman's service but he's wrong on this one said kevin mccarthy. we've all seen the transcript. no, we have not seen the transcript because it's not a transcript. and it says so right there. >> they're such dolts, and it's like none of them read anything. you remember when kevin was on "60 minutes" and he just completely botched -- >> it was steve. >> i thought it was steve. >> donald calls him steve. speaking of donald, i thought the halloween thing with the minion, i thought that was pretty funny myself. >> it was funny. >> everybody seemed to be having a good time. speaking of which, halloween tomorrow night i think it is, i tell you what, when we're in new york, when we used to live in new york the kids, man, they loved -- we would go on 69th street, and it was crazy what people around manhattan do. i mean, i think i bumped into
the movie despicable me. the costume prompted a laugh from the president who patted the child on the head with the candy bar before leaving it there with melania following suit. seconds later the candy bars are seen falling off the child's costume when another attendee picked them up and placed them in the child's bag. it all ended well. willie, do you hand out candy that way? >> i'm so confused by this video. i guess the defense is he didn't see the kid's bag because the minion has a bag in hand, and the president and first lady drop a big old candy bar on top of his head. >> he's got a bag. >> it might have been screened out by spider-man, didn't see the bag. >> look, there's a bag. >> the candy fell off. >> i don't know about you, halloween night, i always put the candy on top of the kid's head. >> that mika is a man who's never just lived on a street and had kids come by the house trick or treating like the rest of us. >> it looked like they had fun.
state department that ukraine had made dramatic progress in fighting corruption and that the aid should be released. why did the president, if the argument is corruption, why did the president go against his own pentagon and his own state department? >> chris, i don't understand how you can ask that question while at the same time add monoyou shoulding the president for -- admonishing the president for wanting to get to the bottom of perhaps one of the biggest corruption scandals -- chris: i'm not admonishing anybody. >> chris, chris -- chris: with all due respect, this is an exercise in obfuscation. [inaudible conversations] >> there's a taupe of judgment in all of your questions so, yes, you are admonishing. chris: no, that's judgment on your part. >> and i can't speak to every single mid-level and low-level bureaucrat in the u.s. government -- chris: this is the deputy secretary of defense policy. do you consider john rood a minion in the state department? >> it's the president's job and

his members. listen, he's a part of the first branch of government too, and for him to sit back and say i have no role here, i'm just a minion of the presidency and the white house, degrades the office that he has and degrades the united states senate. so i think he's going to have to get off his back side and get into this. why doesn't he vote on the bill that came over or make changes to that bill and send it back or put his own bill on the floor? he's being entirely at this point passive, in part i grant you because he doesn't know what trump is going to do. but you know what the solution to that is? the congress makes a deal. they pass laws. they send them to the white house, and the executive branch decides if he is going to sign or veto them. that's how the system is supposed to work. the system is not supposed to work that the senate gums up the works or the house gums up the works in order to protect the president from having to do anything. that's just not our system of checks and balances. and i don't think doing nothing is a solution for mitch mcconnell.

bird seat right now. they voted to open the government. they're going through their agenda. they're going to push a whole bunch of bills on to the doorstep of mitch mcconnell. and what is mitch mcconnell doing? nothing. i don't think that's a sustainable position for him or his members. listen, he's a part of the first branch of government too, and for him to sit back and say i have no role here, i'm just a minion of the presidency and the white house degrades the office that he has and degrades the united states senate. so i think he's going to have to get off his back side and get into this. why doesn't he vote on the bill that came over or make changes to that bill and send it back or put his own bill on the floor? he's being entirely at this point passive, in part i grant you because he doesn't know what trump is going to do. but you know what the solution to that is? the congress makes a deal. they pass laws. they send them to the white house, and the executive branch decides if he is going to sign or veto them.
well, the jewish people lives. and we're here and we represent those values that he despised. >> and you know, i'm a big believer in not repeating the name of these killers, because i don't think history should remember them. history should remember the names of the 11 and the family members whose lives have been forever changed. just tell us a little bit about the people you knew inside. >> they were just, when i say stalwarts, they were there every week. i mean, the jewish prayer service is long. it's like 3 1/2 hours sometimes. they would be there promptly, they would be there early, i would always be late. but you need ten good people for a minion, and to get these people to do it and there were 11 that were murdered. but to gather these people together and get these people to show up at that time and get things together and hand somebody a prayer book at the right page when they come in and do all of those little things. and just to be a presence there. >> and the brother, cecil and his brother, they would greet people often at the door, we're
