pentagon videos that remain. unexplained so i turn to use leroy do you have an explanation. well my hunch sheet of course i don't know my hunch is that these aircraft you know aero craft are some kind of secret military program bad the navy and or air force may or may not know about left handers and always know what the right hand is doing and so you know they're probably captured video from fire craft seen or captured some of these aircraft doing flight tests and so we just don't know what it is but i highly doubt it's from another planet or aliens things like that you know in the past this is what it's always turned out to be always turn out to be a secret military program that one side or another doesn't necessarily know or there's that match this summer to redo what some guy named luis elizondo he's the former head of a classified program he tells c.n.n. the following there's very compelling evidence that we may not be alone he goes on to say and quotes these aircraft we'll call them aircraft are displaying c

, again, the pentagon insists it's waiting to be told by hhs where to send them. don? >> barbara, the commander of a naval aircraft carrier has put out an urgent plea after dozens of sailors became infected with the coronavirus. what is he saying? >> well, this is the commander of the carrier "theodore roosevelt" which right now is docked in guam trying to get testing done of all 5,000 members of the crew. and removing the ill crew members. there may be as many as 70 ofr r more. getting them to local hospital. the commander today made aburgent plea. let me just read you what this navy captain said to the pentagon. and i'm quoting him. he said, we are not at war. sailors do not need to die. if we do not act now, we are failing to properly take care of our most trusted asset, our sailors. and the response from the pentagon about all of this is none of the sailors so far who are stricken are seriously ill or in the hospital. >> that's good. >> they are sending additional -- good news. sending additional medical care, additional testing out there trying to see if they

leaders of the pentagon. that really transformed my life. david: you got assigned to the white house under president nixon and worked for jon erlichman. what was that like? hank: i started in the pentagon in april of 1972, six weeks before the watergate break-in. it looked like he did not understand the implications at the time. i was there it was a landslide victory over mcgovern. i got a big promotion. i was going to be erlichman's deputy for economic policy. then watergate hit and blew up, and i watched these people at very senior positions get carried off. you know, erlichman got convicted after i had left, but i looked at a number of people there in deep, deep trouble. it made a huge impression on me. but the positive impression was george schultz, secretary of the treasury, he had two guys who worked for him that i had a good working relationship. david: you went back to your native midwest, chicago and , joined goldman sachs. how did that come about? hank: i got to tell you -- careers are a funny thing

. >>> the pentagon is denying an abc news report u.s. intelligence agencies sounded the alarm on the coronavirus way back in november. sources tell abc that intelligence officials warned an out-of-control disease was sweeping through wuhan, china. they say the warnings that the outbreak could threaten u.s. forces in asia and become a cataclysmic event appeared in president trump's daily briefing in early january, but the president continued to downplay the crisis for weeks, then claimed it came out of nowhere. >>> on the economic front a new government jobless claims report this morning is expected to say up to 5 million americans filed for unemployment benefits for the first time last week. also treasury secretary steve mnuchin says 60% of direct deposit stimulus checks will go out next week. this all comes as a new study found more than 30% of renters nationwide could not pay their rent at the start of this month. >>> new details on the aircraft carrier at the center of a naval firestorm. the navy says 286 sailers from the "theodore ro

well that our points are that the pentagon could find the money to fight coronavirus from its existing enormous budget unlike underfunded health organizations which are struggling to provide americans with the support they need the country is at the percenter of the pandemic with more than a 1000000 victims and 56000 death. the defense department's budget has now reached $756000000000.00 including $10000000000.00 from the new stimulus and war and security costs exceed a trillion dollars the u.s. spending almost 40 percent of the planet's entire military budget a spokesperson at veterans for peace one of the groups that signed the letter says it's a question of saving lives. basically the crux of our argument is that we need to we need to prioritize our thoughts right now the combined budgets of the you know each the c.b.c. and w.h.o. roughly equals about a 7 known pentagon budget and that if these institutions would have been properly funded we could basically argue that there would be prepared to challenge a token the defense industry contributes a sizable portion of the funding for c

they're not in critical condition but it does seem that they there's a disconnect between what the pentagon releases are and what this navy captain please has to happen if he wants to save lives but he thanks very much indeed particle him live for us in maryland. ok let's take a look at the global picture of the pandemic there are more than 855000 known infections around the world and 42000 people have died now that's according to the johns hopkins tracker nearly 2 thirds of the total global fatalities are from europe with italy and spain being the worst hit both countries have recorded their highest single day death tolls all run and reports on the situation in europe. italy has lost more people to corona virus than any other country in the world there are individual names risk being overlooked lost in the ever changing statistics of this pandemic but at noon in cities and towns across italy every single one of them was remembered local mayors stood on the steps of their town halls in a minute's silence it was an emotional gesture of solidarity an expression of tribute and then indication

guest: that would be the pentagon's decision, yeah. never mind having to scrub identification and stuff from all of those medical records. i think that's kind of -- it's an abject rejection of the theory that thank we somehow did this to china. that we brought it to china. i don't think they want to give them that inch. host: let's go to new york city. caller: hi. i wanted to ask about the impact f the coronavirus on the acquisition plans of the army, their big six modernization plans. and also in particular the impact on the navy, on the ford, you know, class carrier and its problems and it's other block, by now, the other block sister ships. and as well as the frigate. thank you. guest: all that stuff is a little bit still in flux right now. there have been some army futures command has come out and said, hey, we're still working on our stuff. we're still doing testing. we're still doing the back-end office work that goes into putting those things together. luckily the love that stuff can be done from home. but in terms of when thing

the pentagon fell and was cheney's support. they wanted toerytng. the state department had its own future of iraq project. there were intent disagreements about governing iraq. the bottom line, none of them, they were too busy fighting each other to come up with a plan that worked. >> would you talk a little bit about cheney and powell's interview subjects and how they get into their past careers and what they do? >> i was starting to think this wasn't a washington audience because no one raised their hand and said, how about jackson? [laughter] i'll give you my answer to that and then the answer to your question. my answer on how much access you have is, the biographer had full and complete an unbelievable access to ronald reagan and wrote one of the biographies and he had zero access to theodore roosevelt and wrote one of the best biographies around. in my case, i did have access to powell. i interviewed powell into previous books. he was at first, a little reluctant. i can tell you the story of wife. he didn't like, in my previous book about this

the pentagon releases video of real ufos and it's barely even a story. won't even be the biggest news item of the week! the other big mystery right now is where is kim jong un? who is either very sick or very dead or perfectly fine. all we know is that he hasn't been seen or heard from in more than two weeks. and this was trending over the weekend -- a hashtag that says either "kim jong un dead" - or "kim jong undead" i don't know. that would be some plot twist. he turns into a zombie? south korean officials claim their troublesome neighbor is "alive and well." and is probably just sheltering in place. another theory is he was drinking from a chocolate river and got stuck in a pipe. he's waiting for the un-paloompas to get him out. whatever the case, the president weighed in on this, saying he has a "very good idea" about what is going on with kim jong un. which, of course, means he has absolutely no idea what is going on with kim jong un. this has not been a great month for donald trump. none of them have, really. but yesterday, we learned that trump wa

we do not do that anymore because he funded out of the pentagon. -- farmed it out to the pentagon. goss was another one who brought in people from the hill and got pushed back. senior leaders resigned in protest because of the way he was running things. he did not have a direct mission particularly. george bush appointed him because he was head of the oversight committee and thought it would be a politically good move but it was politically disastrous for inside the agency and he left after 1. 5 years. michael hayden in contrast was very popular because he knew exactly what not to do. he got out of the car the first day on the job alone and walked up to the seventh floor and said, how can i get your help to do what i am assigned to do? which was to help the agency navigate the increasingly controversial counterterrorism scandals they were falling into and very tough relations with congress. hayden had been adept at the national security agency, a good professional. i think of him as not so much a military intelligence officer but an intelligence professional in the military. that w

that it was difficult to get options from the pentagon. i won't deny that. particularly on questions about -- what would it take if we did decide that the objective was to secure baghdad? what would be required? these kinds of questions that may sound hypothetical but wanting to get a sense of -- is this possible? are the resources there? these are questions that people cannot possibly answer and in some regards, this is when we did look at to get fidelity from our judgments from people outside of the pentagon. but we did have a second sort of strategy review going on. the bill lindy look. that was done out of the nsc and steve hadley may talk about that tonight to ask the question -- what kinds of resources did we have? the point i think that is more interesting was your second bed about what kind of care was given to managing this? and the potential damage that could be done with the president making the decision that the military had gone against. the president and steve hadley were very conscious of this and conscious of the fact that to make a decision

very interesting that it was in that in the early part of 2017 that the the defense posture of the pentagon they shifted from the war on terror to a more traditional great power struggle and china and russia were put into that category so again russia saves the day for the pentagon ok and china is also playing the role when you if you can't square the circle then i mean because then either you know they're an enemy and you don't trade with them or you're an enemy and you do trade with them what did happen how are you going to explain that you can't you can explain the unexplainable there go ahead brauer. yeah i mean i think . about the whole business of political class like the 2016 election that took trying to power it shows that there is a clear like divide between the american political class which i would say that political and business class are basically the same united states but you have you have one it's that attached to classical neo liberalism in that you have one that's like the new trump people they see america 1st kind of protectionist policy and when obama did his pivot towar
