produced it, the cia edited it, the cia delivered it, the cia got the feedback on it and would repeat and do the same thing every day. that was up until ten years ago in the aftermath of 9/11 and the iraq wmd issues, the office of the director of national intelligence was created. the pdb was handed to that new organization and under the control of the director of national intelligence now. now, cia is still heavily involved in it but the book is now open to authors from any intelligence agency. it is coordinated around the intelligence community giving more people a chance to get input to the president. there's still editing and bureaucracy done but that's done at the level of national intelligence and his senior officers. i did ask george w. bush in his administration this change happened, i said, what did you see when suddenly this thing that has been going on for decades in this institution is transferred to a new organization, what did you notice? he said, i didn't notice any difference. most of it was still written by cia and my briefer was still the same briefer, cia officer, t

the cia has multiple missions. we have the human and technical, the all force analytic mission to provide policymakers in congress with the insights they need. we have the counterintelligence mission to make sure we can protect ourselves from adversaries trying to steal our secrets. we also have a covert action mission which involves the paramilitary dimension, and given our roots in the services in world war ii since our birth , in 1947, every administration has taken advantage of cia's tremendous abilities in that paramilitary covert action realm. as we fight in yemen and iraq and other places, the cia's give abilities in this area will be increasingly called upon in the future. i also would add one other component to those missions and that's on the liaison front. our partners. we need to make sure we develop the partnership we need to leverage their capabilities, because as good as cia is we're , not able to confront all these angles globally. we need to develop the professionalism of other services and make su

you mentioned in your remarks about cia modernization and the desire to diversify the cia to be reflective of the diversity not only in our own country but all of the entities we deal with in the world. can you go over what you are doing to increase diversity in the cia? the past threeer years, we have had an initiative initiated by general betray us trying to advance women in leadership within the agency. we have had implementation teams working the last three years to make sure the objectives and goals of the study are being operationalized and assignment panels and other types of programs we have inside the agency. tosked vernon jordan spearhead an effort on diversity and leadership at the cia that took a look at the different facets in terms of representation, leadership, training and development of officers, and why we have: short of federal standards of what our diversity composition should look at -- should look like. andas a hard-hitting report we have put together action teams on that. i have a lead officer involved in it and i have made mandatory training for my senior leadership

three years en since the cia said that. the case that no one has been held accountable for systemic failures that the agency has acknowledged? wantrst of all, senator, i to say that i respectfully disagree with your opening comments. irst of all, u.s. companies dominate the international market as far as encryption are available at through these various apps and i think we'll continue to dominate them. right there is the ability of foreign companies o be able to have those encryption capabilities and available to others, i do believe that this country and private sector is integral to addressing these issues and i this committee on to continue to work on it. course of over the the last several years took ctions to address the short comings that we have fully the detention and interrogation program. there was individual account accountabilitynd for some of the management and systemic failures. would be happy to had in a different setting the details of i think the hat committee is aware of. >> i want to make sure i heard tha

he had his cia briefer travel with him on domestic and foreign trips. number two he decided to supplement the process. he added deep docs. he brought in analyst, the world-class experts from the cia and other intelligent agencies agencies as well to talk with him in depth about the crises of the day. in the first 18 months after they did this he had over 200 analyst come in to talk with him , in some cases up to an hour, in depth depth about one particular country or one particular issue. : that brings us to our current president, barack obama. it has been personalized for every president. that was made obvious when he was reading his daily brief on an ipad. the presents daily brief is now electronic on-screen and not on paper. it's now presented in a way that can allow multimedia graphics and videos and things like that. :

the cia used them them as a way of targeted killing. the military operates under title x of the u.s. code, the cia operates under title 50 ofer their different rules and regulations that affect how they use them. i spent a lot of time talking ta military people about drones.th' my feeling is that there is a wide recognition in the military that you are not going to win a war by drones alone. the idea of drone warfare is really a nonstarter in a way. but, for military operations drones have become almost an essential tool, there is an insatiable appetite not for the ability to fire weapons from drones within the military, but the ability to see what is happening on the ground. that is how they are playing their greatest role militarily now in the campaign against isis for example. in the reaper drones, they they are flying over iraq and syria all of the time and they are the way that the military locates targets sometimes, and then guides manned aircraft to them. the drones are the i in the sky that they did not have before because they

for the cia. meier says the family had bob's computer hacked after he disappeared that led a paper trail to the cia. barry: i had hundreds of reports that he had sent back and forth between him and his cia handler, so it was undisputable. scott: so if levinson was working for the cia, why would the agency deny it? the cia declined to comment to "full measure," but meier has his own idea. barry: they will not say bob levinson was a cia consultant, that he went to iran to gather information for the cia. they are refusing to do that because they don't want to admit that we are in the business of collecting intelligence about our friends or enemies. scott: it would be an admission that could endanger other americans overseas, who would be treate hostile nations. the first hint about levinson's disappearance, meier says, came in 2007 in an email apparently from bob and sent to his family and the fbi. barry: it was one of the most tantalizing clues. this email appeared to be written by levinson pleading

and kennedy feeling sandbagged by the cia in. to scatterd -- vowed the cia to the wind. and they were equally enraged at the kennedys. i think if my book does one thing, i hope that it creates a sense of what the kennedys brought, because most books do this kindke -- evoke of atmosphere that prevailed in washington during those years. when you do interviews with people that were alive from this world, the intelligence world or military world, you get a sense of the hatred that they had for the kennedys. the head of the air force referred to them as cockroaches that should have been crushed. jfk in turnabout that he was a madman. he thought he could fight and win a nuclear war and he was determined to do that while they had superiority in the 1960's. at one point, he was at a dinner party and he turned to a woman who happened to be the wife of a u.s. senator and said, we will have a nuclear war by the end of the year and if you want you and your children to survive you should take them out west to tumbleweed country and that was her only chance of surviving. john kennedy

the cia director. which if you have not heard by now, his headline was this: despite our progress against isis on the battlefield, our efforts have not reduced the group's terrorism capability and global reach. which is significant. heather: definitely significant following president obama's comments. all right. well, coming up premium increases, have you heard about this, for obamacare? that's coming x. the fed's trying to fix the problem by throwing even more money at it. bill: also, heather, check it out. dramatic video, boy's very close call. the driver here e ending up in very hot water as well. of control. profits... and we pay the price. gouging. block action in the legislature. california. prescription drugs. of the drug companies... relief act. >> good morning. yeah. heather: this is not what obamacare was supposed to do. not at all, right? >> no, although conservatives did warn about this. this does look sort of exactly what a federal takeover of health care might look like or at least the be

and a grave warning from the cia. the cia director telling us isis is as dangerous as ever. this frightful statement coming despite efforts on the battlefield by us led forces. here is cia director john brennan with his chilling words. >> unfortunately, despite all our progress against isil on the battlefield and in the financial realm, our efforts have not reduced the group's terrorism capability and global beach. preserve capacity for terrorism regardless of events in iraq and syria. in fact, as the pressure mounts on isil we judge that it will intensify global terror campaign to maintain its dominance of the global terrorism agenda. >> fox news chief intelligence correspondent catherine herridge is here. catherine, that's the cia director two days earlier, the president said isis on the defense. i see this as, i mean, that the cia is trying to get out in front of. this i think that's an excellent assessment. this is testimony under oath coming isis attack. what john brennan is saying. despite what's happened over the last two years, isis remains as capable to send operati

and that's where the cia comes into the predator story. because as big saw farly was starting -- safari was starting that project to arm the predator, richard clark, the counterterrorism director at the national security council, and charlie allen, a very senior cia official, had come to the conclusion that the united states needed to kill osama bin laden before he killed more americans as al-qaeda had done in bombing our embassies in kenya and tanzania in 1998, and as it would do again by bombing the uss cole on october 12, 2000, killing 17 american sailors. but if they were going to kill bin laden, first the cia had to find him. so in september of 2000, the big safari crew and a ground control station at an air base in germany flew an unarmed predator over a place near kandahar, afghanistan, called tarnac farms. the cia believed bin laden was living there as a guest of the taliban and, indeed, the air force predator crew found him. at that point, big safari's product to arm the predator -- project to arm the predator went into high gear.

but that is most certainly not what his own cia director said today. the cia director is warning us, isis is growing and has its eyes on the united states. that's really disturbing that the two are telling americans two different things about extreme danger. and in just moments, senator lindsey graham and why he says the obama administration is to blame and right now presumptive g.o.p. presidential nominee donald trump says he will be the toughest on isis. and that includes not backing down on his temporary ban of muslims entering t

a sobering warning coming from the cia director. often they say yes, we're worried, but we have it under control. that's not the message we're getting right now. >> yes. that's because so many have gone over to the battlefields in iraq and syria, and frankly, erin, they've gone through turkey and turkey has been a major problem because it is so easy to transit through turkey on to the battlefields and if they can come back with the lessons they've learned on the battlefield and increased hate for the west for americans and then we're really at risk. >> congressman, before we go, the cia director said preventing attacks like this in the united states is complicated. it's not that difficult to construct and fabricate a suicide vest. is there concern about suicide bombers like that here? >> well, al qaeda and other groups have publicly put out how you can get homemade, readily available devices and i will also just say that right now in america it's too easy for dangerous people to get dangerous weapons and use firearms and explosives

it is not work the cia is usually involved in. again, i say i take my hat off to the bureau for working hard on something like this even if they missed it. i must also say that those signals that you described sounded like something that someone should have checked out. whether it should have been the bureau or local law enforcement, i don't know. >> director woolsey, i'm curious what you might say to critics who are going to argue this the intelligence community seems a step behind. it is still looking for more traditional signs of radical radicalization, increasing religious fervor, more trips abroad. that no longer applies to many terror suspects. b what do you say? >> well, if one is looking abroad, that could well be the cia. if they get information or even a hunch that someone is a terrorist back in the u.s., they ought to notify the bureau or probably it would be the bureau. we've had, for example, in the leadup to 9/11, we had a situation in which there was a justice department memorandum that barred the cia and the fbi fr

let me read this to you, the director of the cia says and i quote. unfortunately our battle field an the financial realm, our efforts have not reduced the group's terrorism, capability, and global reach. isis of course establishing affiliates around the world now, one its strongest affiliates in libya, off the coast of north africa to south of europe where isis has an estimated 6,000 operatives in that north african country on europe's southern flank. so the director of the cia giving a fairly grim overall assessment of where the fight against isis stands. the pentagon often talks about these battle field successes. we've seen them talk about that all the time. brennan acknowledges that but warning today, there is a much larger picture. carol. >> all right, barbara starr, reporting live from the pentagon. of course, we'll continue to monitor that and the testimony of john brennan, the cia director. >>> i have a bit of breaking news right now. the flight data recorder from egypt air 804 has been located. we told you yesterday that parts of the plane h

. >> it's not viewed as primarily a hate crime but a terror atachblth also this week the cia director john brennan says that isis is focused on launching attacks on the outside of the u.s. >> the group is supporting means for opportunities to the west you including and refugees, smuggling routes and methods of travel. >> given that, is it unreasonable for donald trump to say shop and ban refugees from coming into the country? >> well, what are we talking about when we say the terrible thing in orlando. this is an act on terror and hate. this is a person inspired by terrorism. we're trying to find out if motivations and everything that we can about what lead him to the path and what put him in the night club that morning with the firearm. now, one of the things that we have talked about before is the concern on home grown extremist and individuals that consumed the radical ideology and then act on it. what we're work on is making sure that our investigations pick up the individuals and also gather as much information that we can from the people that know them and citizen that are conce

chillingly, the cia director predicted more attacks like ande in san bernardino orlando, assessing the isil can draw on fighters who could potentially serve as operatives for attacks in the west. i have said before, that we live in a society, one that values freedom and diversity, contrary to what some will have you believe, you can live in a free and open society while still being safe. i also feel strongly that we need to continue to protect american civil liberties and privacy. the content of our phone calls, e-mail discussions, bank transactions, medical records and data should be sicker. -- secure. i believe that consumer data is too insecure and we should take solutions protect information. some of those consumers now happen to be terrorists and they are using secure messaging applications to recruit, plan and execute attacks against civilians. what is increasingly clear is that the very technology that is enabling tremendous innovation in manufacturing, medicine and other areas of the global economy, is also providing terrorists ways to innovate and propagate their evil. we are

apparently someone didn't alert the cia director but the cia director gave us the truth and the truth is isis is on the offense, not on the defense is the president would lead us to believe. charles: it's interesting because the media says the reason we are getting more of these so-called lone wolf attacks is because isis is losing the battle and this is a desperation move by the way brendan talked about it this is a step further, not a sign of weakness but a sign of strength. c it's hard to compare isis and doc qaeda because they are different organizations and you are right it could be a sign of strength and that's also concerning about it. let's are member that isis gets most of their funds from not just on my shins which is what al-qaeda relied on and isis gets power and broad numbers of people, individuals. they are not bringing people in and training them. they want reach. that's what they are getting so that is very concerning. they are still able to get back but what the mr. asian is telling us they are doing to deter funding and to gain territory back from isis so it's there

>> yeah, i think we saw the cia director call out the president and say that all of his language saying that we've defeated this jv crowd is just wrong. i don't know why that the media and others are allowing the white house and the national security council to totally be political. with our national security. turning the shooting, this terrorist attack massacre at an orlando gay club. specifically -- ludicrous. i don't understand why we don't we have a public debate. but we're led by a president who makes this all about -- >> i respectfully disagree with richard. president obama said he will not use that term, radical islam. i think it does a favor to the muslim community to make that distinction, we have to remember, eric, this did not start with president obama. this was set by george w. bush post september 11 saying he felt that was important around protecting american safety. >> one big difference. george bush was e unequivocal in going after the terrorists. the reason he was bifurcating muslims and making sure that the muslim community was hearing that he wasn't going after them,

that's the cia director. what's your take from that? >> i think we have to anticipate is isis' number would be and primary target would be a major attack from the united states directed by them. say that from orlando which it looks like from the investigation so far that was isis inspired. so if you want the cia director to have that assumption, right, because then he can work with that focus. he doesn't want to let his guard down. the intelligence agency's guard down. but we are different from europe. our oceans very much protect us. we have, despite all of its flaws, rigorous reviews of who's coming in. i'm not saying it's perfect but we are better off in this regard than, say, a place like turkey or even europe now with its open borders. so i'm not surprised by that. i don't think he meant it as fatalistic. i think he meant like that's what you want the cia director to be thinking. >> a lot to learn from it. exactly what happened, why, and who's behind it as well. as we watch for new developments every moment coming in on this attack

he's at great odds with the cia director. there should not be a president who ised a odds factually. they should be speaking from the same script. >> the president may have 7 mort going anywhere. bill: the f.b.i. director james comey will go to orlando today. in the meantime, finally closure for the family of a 9/11 firefighter. 15 years later, the reason for that delay in a moment. donald trump set to meet with the nra. what will come of this as the gun debate on capitol hill grind forward. >> senate democrats have an election coming up in november. and they don't want to talk about the real issue. let's talk about isis and radical islamic terrorism. heartburn relief. the antacid goes to work in seconds... and the acid reducer lasts up to 12 hours in one chewable tablet. try new duo fusion. from the makers of zantac. oa skin transformation that rivals the leading department store moisturizer. revives skin to fight 7 signs of aging. with olay, you age less, so you can be ageless. olay. ageless. >> this story is going to warm

he ran the cia and the nas. he knows of what he speaks. >>> up next, howard stern's must see rant on guns and terrorists. man 1: i came as fast as i could. what's up? man 2: this isn't public yet. man 1: what isn't? man 2: we've been attacked. man 1: the network? man 2: shhhh. man 1: when did this happen? man 2: over the last six months. man 1: how did we miss it? man 2: we caught it, just not in time. man 1: who? how? man 2: not sure, probably off-shore, foreign, pros. man 1: what did they get? man 2: what didn't they get. man 1: i need to call mike... man 2: don't use your phone. it's not just security, it's defense. bae systems. >>> developing tonight, radio star howard stern offering an impassioned response for those calling for stricter gun laws in the wake of the massacre in orlando. >> i'm so upset about orlando and what went down. but i can't believe these people would come out after ward and their answer is to take guns away from the public. let's assume -- why would the sheep bahaha, say, oh, we've got

it is a domestic challenge, but the cia -- mr. brennan: the cia are working with our other partners, the nsa and others, we share as much data information as possible. any lead we may have from overseas collection or access, we make sure it is shared with our partners. any of the trends or developments we see in terrorist organizations in terms of their modus operandi, we share that immediately. and so it's a constant , interaction between all the different elements of the u.s. counterterrorism community. it has helped protect this country. the vulnerabilities that existed at 9/11 that the hijackers took advantage of, they no longer exists. however, there are other ways that isis can adapt to the reality to be able to carry out these attacks. judy: i want to come back to isis in syria and iraq because yes, there has been some progress as you say, but it is frustratingly slow. you are dealing with -- you have the iranians playing a role in iraq and to a lesser extent in syria. certainly in iraq. do you see the iranians as being sup
