It doesnt make any difference from our viewpoints if the person is muslim or jewish or the father of any religion. Tom he went on to question president obama on the ground in iraq, are they afraid of their soldiers being killed in the fight that they claim is against terrorism and holding it hearing just days tom lists and the Minnesota Vikings tell Adrian Peterson to stay away from one of the nfls most prominent sponsors. But where is Roger Goodell in all of this and we begin in washington where the list of Senior Defense officials current and past calling for Ground Troops and the socalled adamant Ground Forces for two president obama visited u. S. Central command and try to close the door. The American Forces that have been deployed to iraq do not and will not have a combat mission. And bob gates told cbs news that the u. S. Cannot win without sending in combat troops. The u. S. Can count on the iraqis to serve as the Ground Troops. It is more effective to use our unique capabilities in support of partners on the ground. So they can secure their own countries. Reporter even though ray odierno raised serious questions about the iraqi forces. Thing that they did not write at all when confronted by isis, telling reporters that youve got to have Ground Forces that are capable of going in and rooting them out. Adding that the u. S. Air strikes will not be the endall and beall solution. Were not there to support combat troops in any of these engagements. The president s own support continues to dip at the New York Times cbs news poll finding, 34 approve of the handling of Foreign Policy and 50 disapprove. And democrats like joe manchin are questioning the president strategies in a coalition that john kerry says that he is putting together. The most important is to know your enemy. It is equally important to know your allies. And i am not confident that we know who our allies are. And it seems like a political answer as they cry out about this uncivilized activity. We have come back from a week of serious meetings. For two later today the house voted to give the president the power to train and arm the syrian rebels. Tom thank you, ed henry at the white house. In the meantime, top Homeland Security officials testifying that the Islamic State is an eminent concern for the country, but stopping movement from the middle east including radicalized americans is a challenge. Homeland security secretary jeh johnson claiming that amnesty would encourage both terris to likely come forward. It hinders our ability to track those individuals, which is why from my Homeland Security perspective, i would like to see those people come forward and get on the books. And the risk to Homeland Security grows when there are larger numbers of undocumented people in any one place or any crowded area. I cant disagree with that. And turning now to the house select committee. Hillary clinton and her role in the tragedy and responsibility for the lapse of security on the ground that night dominated todays testimony. Chief Congressional Correspondent mike emanuel was on capitol hill tonight with our report. The secretary of state should personally review the security situation of diplomatic facilities, closing those that are highly vulnerable and threatened. Why do you think of the 1999 arb went out of its way to use the word personally . Reporter early on there was an effort made to be bipartisan in town. Maybe we can be what those four brave men were. Neither republican or democrat for two if its too late to bring back the americans killed at benghazi, but its an opportunity to make a difference now. What we will do will have lasting effects even when weve gone to heaven. And that is how we have to look at this for two lawmakers heard from Security Officials who reviewed policies that there continues to be a benghazi approach to diplomatic security. Or the smoke and remove the mayors, now is the time for the department of date to institutionalize some real meaningful and progressive change. It was anything but independent. I have pushed every button i could possibly push. There are signs that the panel will look into the situation further about Hillary Clinton scrubbing documents making officials look bad remap this is certainly a part of what we are doing, i am confident that he will come before the committee. He noted it is a very dangerous world. Tom mike emanuel, thank you so much. Meanwhile, the iris commissioner getting grilled over lois lerners missing emails. Testifying that the irs did not save any information and there is no outside system to store agency emails. And earlier this month the Inspector General found dead the agency failed to search 760 computer servers that could contain lois lerners emails. We are coming right back. President obama sticking to his guns, telling a military audience that he will not send troops to fight another ground war in iraq. Mcguinness told us if it is weve never sold a house before. agent ill walk you guys through every step. There are a lot of buyers for a house like yours. husband thats good to know. I take prilosec otc each morning for my frequent heartburn. Because it gives me zero heartburn. Annc prilosec otc the number one doctor recommend frequent heartburn medicine for nine straight years. One pill each morning 24 hours zero heartburn. Tom the family of steven sotloff, one of two american journalist beheaded by the Islamic State, claiming that it was hectored and bullied by the obama administration. The family spokesman claiming that the key and james foley were threatened with prosecution if they paid ransom to the Islamic State. And the white house saying that martin dempsey, who testified before Congress Said that Ground Troops might be needed in the fight against the Islamic State. Twenty to discuss whether president obama is on a collision course with his general, we have kernel bob maginnis. This story has fascinated me and i am an old army guy and i was always taught that what your commander says goes and theres no debate in the military. Typically you do not. The reality is that with this being tried in the public court of opinion, generals have opinions and they talk to those of us which are not significant. And the reality is even during the Bush Administration there were a group of general officers who started to speak out against what secretary Donald Rumsfeld was doing at that time. And certainly what general ray odierno said earlier in the day. It is really up to the line. And he talked about the testimony. But if he feels under his prerogative as adviser to the commander in chief, the military advisor, he tells them what he thinks. And we need to make sure that art chairman has that freedom. And obviously the president decided today when he was in tampa that he wasnt going to accept th and as you have been reporting for the last few minutes, i dont think anyone outside of the white house in a few political people that support the president , believe that he has a plan that is going to work. Reed if that is the case, is this just the pentagon racing the flag up the flagpole to see what the reaction is of the public . Or is this going to lead to some sort of fight where we will see resignations or firings . I dont think youre going to find too many resignations. And i can remember talking to some very senior people years later after the vietnam war and they regretted not telling president johnson the truth. What they ought to be doing, and we never wouldve gone into the quagmire that we ended up with in vietnam. And there are a few principles that will stand up and there will be some that will eventually step down. But if this president believes that this threat from isis is serious and if it threatens our homeland in spite of what jeh johnson said in the broadcast moments ago, then we need to take immediate and Decisive Action and that, unfortunately, would probably take thousands of our tired young soldiers who have been fighting for the last 13 years to go back and take care of isis. Because based upon what the Central Intelligence agency has been saying for the last couple of weeks has radically expanded in influence and size and it controls a large swath of land not just in iraq that syria end its beginning to have impact on turkey and jordan and i think the Saudi Arabians are rattling in their boots. Tom former defense secretary bob gates said two things. You heard about this. This is where he said that this plan is not going to work, but on the other hand he said that we have been fighting al qaeda for 13 years and you cant say that we have defeated them. So is it going to be where we are going to come to some sort of nuanced statement about what we kind of Mission Accomplished sunday . As long as they dont attack us, the reality is that these people have been chopping off heads as of late and they have threatened to take over the white house. It may be both teams. But given what al qaeda has been able to accomplish and given our real trepidation and expenditure of almost 7000 american lives and two wars and trillions of dollars, either this is a serious threat or it is not. If it is, lets get out of it and if it is, lets take care of it. Unfortunately youre not going to rely upon the type of fighters that are going to syria, the iraqis, as we have been, they left this in a fight. But if we really want this to be accomplished, unfortunately we will have to rely upon ourselves. Tom kernel robert maginnis, thank you for your expertise. Well, it is time to take a look at our online poll results. We asked you if you would urge congress to give president obama more authority on any issue, including war. Taking a look at this, its an overwhelming 95 of you that said no way. And the battle for scotland is one day away after the breakup of the united kingdoms names like a real possibility.

Tom coming up next, the memcpy select committee holds its first hearing just days after evidence of a Hillary Clinton coverup is exposed. And our guest, lynn westmooreland will be joining us. And doctor Anthony Anthony fauci is here with us as well. And the Minnesota Vikings admitting that they made a mistake reinstating Adrian Peterson, today barring him from all Team Activities after charges of child abuse. And nike suspended the sponsorship of him as well, the nfl under fire including anheuserbusch or its handling of these scandals. And the former Vice President of global media and Sports Marketing for anheuserbusch, and now ceo of pronto management group. You just retired from there. That is all yours, the anheuserbusch christmas messages. Yes, we are building this before that Sports Marketing and the consumers spend a lot of time in sports, so to reach the beer consumer, that was a place for it. Tom you also have to know that you look around any sports waited and you have guys who get in trouble. So what is the surprise . Unfortunately it is not a surprise. So how do we address it when someone makes a mistake sponsors are looking to increase the image of their brand and they say, okay, they can market budweiser. But they feel that it enhances their overall programs. And it sounds like the league is saying, well, we will deal with this, we will let the Legal Process take its run, but the sponsors they were not happy with the weight you are doing things and it looks like the tail is wagging the dog and the sponsors are running the nfl. The sponsors are providing a lot of money. We hope that the sponsors have their own conscience about these kinds of issues. And even their business relationships, the retailers and Distribution Systems are employed. Its like this doesnt feel like what are you doing about it. Tom houseparty thing that anheuserbusch will push it . I think that they want to see the nfl come out and address the issue openly. And i would hope that i would think that we will do so before the week is out. I have no information on that. But they dont want this to linger, they wanted to be addressed and i think that as a country, we generally like to be told the truth about what may have happened, how we couldve handled it better, how we will move forward in the future. Tom at the same time, if you have a week of anything, a small, basketball, football, if you get a bunch of guys that are in trouble, they are turned off to that and then they are turned off for drinking your beer. Absolutely. People have a choice. They can stop drinking bud or bud light. But wont heineken jump on it if anheuserbusch pulls out . That is a risk. But the standpoint as a good sponsor, you should do the right thing that your consumer will respect you for and if you think thats the right thing, then you do it. Tom will Roger Goodell go . No, i think he is an honest and straightforward hardworking person. And i think that he just has to look in the camera and address the issue head on. Tom tony tony ponturo, thank yr coming on the show. Nasa is sending a flight into orbit. Boeing and spacex would be the first private companies to send astronauts into space.

The states largest wildfire 5 contained. And our next guest was a no vote on the syria amendment and the continuing resolution and hes also a member of the house Like Committee on benghazi which held its first hearing today. Joining us now is congressman lynn westmoreland, he serves on the committee of intelligence and the deputy chairman of the National Congressional committee. Congressman, where do you want to start . You have a lot of interesting things to talk about. Lets start with this. Nobody is interested in this, at least opponents the condensate back, the polls say that the majority of people are interested and they want to know what the answers are. But it seems like there has been like it was muchts going on. More friendly, to say the least. Was that your impression . The first thing that you have to understand is that adam schiff, congressman shipped is the one that asked for this hearing. So we were talking to what the results were being put out. And i think it was a pretty bipartisan hearing. We probably asked a few tougher questions. But Ranking Member cummings was really strong about the accountability that the state department has in enforcing some of these suggestions and recommendations that the board of standards and review has given to the state department that have not been carried out. In some of these have gone back to 1983 after the beirut bombing and after the african bombing in 1999. And so we have pretty much put the state department on notice. The we will be checking back and checking to see if they are going along with these recommendations and actually doing them. How long is this process . How long will we be having more hearings from the special committee . On this particular, i would think that you would have it in the next 45 or 60 days to see where they are at on the recommendations. Tom pretty quick. If you go back to this account of a reveal, a lot of people are saying that they have lost a lot of things. They have never interviewed secretary clinton or eyewitnesses and to us it wasnt a very good report and the members are selected by the secretary of state, which in my opinion does not make them an independent board, since the person that they are really looking at and what their communications and standards war is the one that selected them to be on the committee. And so we have uncovered some things and discuss some things today about the arb that i thought was very interesting. And also we had one individual on the state department that answered the questions that he was asked as best as the he could and he was not there during the attack, but he had been there. Are you going to have former secretary clinton, some of these guys that you have been talking to recently that were there, cia contractors . I dont know who the chairman has lined up to come in to testify, but i am sure that those and some potential witnesses could be called before the committee. I think it would be helpful and i hope you do. Thank you, congressman lynn westmoreland. Thank you for having me. Tom on wall street with a recordbreaking day for stocks.

We just want to help everyone, everywhere, breathe a little easier. Introducing cvs health. Because health is everything. Tom new reports show the spread of the deadly ebola at virus could have a deadly effect on the hardest hit nations. This is coming the same pay that the first dose of an experimental ebola vaccine was given to a volunteer Health Worker. Joining me now is doctor anthony fauci, director of the National Institute of allergies and diseases. This whole business about how dangerous ebola is, especially after the news yesterday, the president says this, the question is how much danger are we in, because a couple of weeks ago i heard a lot of doctors they do you have to be able to touch somebody. So for us, what is the situation and the danger . Its minimum if nonexistent. As we have said many times, the situation in west africa is an unfortunate result of the lack of a Health Care System that was able early on in the outbreak to be able to adequately identify and isolate entry and protect Health Care Workers and as it started to spread, it spread in the way with expotential, which meant a more rapid rate than the control mechanisms or the capabilities and resources to actually do Infection Control, they were able to essentially stop it. The more i got out of control, the more dire the situation is and that really is the function of the inability to be able to do good Infection Control because of the lack of a good Health Care System, unfortunately, in those countries. So we have to ask what are the dangers here and certainly there is a possibility that someone who is from a west african country and got infected their, on a plane, when they got to their destination, and that could be washington or new york or london or peer us, that having got sick, that they went to the emergency room and unfortunately before people recognize what it was, they acted a Health Worker or a nurse or something. But there wont be an outbreak here. That is the question that ive never heard anyone ask, what is the just nation. Between the time that i actually get a virus and i start feeling ill . Well, somewhere between eight and 10 days that it can range between two to 21 days and the outer limit of exposure to the development of disease is about 21 days. But the point i was making that even someone came here and did get sick care, it is extraordinarily unlikely that there would be an outbreak because we have the capability of doing the proper isolation containment and Infection Control. So when you ask Health Workers what the dangers are, it is not that we are taking it likely but it is a reflection of the fact that the problem in west africa really relates greatly to the disparity of the ability of a country in west africa to handle Infection Control compared to a country that has a good Health Care System that can handle it. Tom you talk about the example that a lot of people use, which is someone gets on an airplane, and you travel and we have a here in the u. S. But you also wrote an article about the fact that ebola could be weaponize. Can you tell me about that . I didnt write an article, but i answered a question that it could be weaponize and my response to the senator was that any buyers that you wanted to weaponize it, that anyone could weaponize it, which means you can make it in a way that it can cause a great deal of harm and destruction in society. And so when you go back to the air of the cold war, and it is very clear from intelligence that the soviets were stockpiling a number of microbes like smallpox, botulism, and even fever viruses which in food ebola, include the possibility of doing weapons of mass destruction. That is a hypothetical. They did and they never used it, thank goodness, but in answer to the question, of course it could be done. So the overall summation is because of our good health system, we are in pretty good shape. That is the bottom line. Tom doctor anthony fauci, thank you for joining us. Its good to be with you. Tom coming up next, how Speaker John Boehner takes aim at his own caucus and President Biden makes another racially insensitive remark. The ateam takes that up in more.

Liberty mutual insurance. Tom now, time for the quotation of the evening. This one from one of our founding fathers, the third president of the united states, thomas jefferson. The most access a war seldom pays. Its interesting how history sometimes repeats. Joining me now is the ateam. Radio talk show host chris plante and fox news political analyst doug schoen. So lets start with joe biden. He was talking about how his aunt went over to iraq and he had a tough time keeping up with their loan payments and so forth. Some of them took advantage of women and men overseas. I grew up a nice Catholic Irish kid and i know that this word is a disparaging comment. As a jewish individual who grew up with particular sensitivity, you just wonder how someone a mistake after a mistake and this is not the first ethnic or racial club that he has made. So it is discouraging and a bit disquieting. Tom as doug said, this guy is almost to the point where its clownish. I would delete i would just say that, the Vice President is an embarrassment. I played the audio today on my show and hes constantly talking about this. He called president obama the first mainstream black eyed to come along that is articulate and bright and clean. When you walk into a 7eleven or Dunkin Donuts in delaware coming have to have an indian accent, and the list goes on and on. Joe bidens greatest hits and we have a new one yesterday. Yes, we sure do. Does this mean anything about his chances to be our next president . With the iowa poll, i think 56 to 15, Single Digits nationally, i dont think so. What is the buzz at the water cooler there remapped. I dont think he has a snowballs chance, but i certainly hope that he runs just for entertainment value. Campaigns arent as funny as it used to be. Jumping in would certainly add some funds the process. That is true. We are going to be bipartisan about this today. John boehner set on any given day, 16 of my members decide that they are going to go this way and then all of a sudden i have nothing. You might notice that i have a few knuckleheads at my conference. Chris, speaking of knuckleheads, most of those people under the dome are knuckleheads. But whats he talking about . I think that he is undercounting, knuckleheads exist in both parties. I wish that the speaker would spend more time going after the democrats and less time criticizing his own caucus and party. He might be able to marshal a little bit more discipline and have fewer and knuckleheads if you are a speaker of the house. Have you ever seen a democrat take shots at members of their own caucus were their own party like this . Generally speaking, no. This goes to show, if he still going to be the speaker . In my mind he is getting done what needs to be getting done. Whether it be balanced budget or immigration. It seems that the knuckleheads are ruling the roost. I have to say that there are a lot of knuckleheads in the senate and the republicancontrolled house has passed 360 bills and move them along to the senate where harry reid buries them in the bottom of his desk drawer and they never see the light of day. So that a little bit unfair to john boehner. We will see if there is a better argument after the midterm election. Lets get both of your reactions to this. Despite this between the generals and the president , are there going to be whats on the ground . I suspect there will be. But struggles me more specifically today because you basically have the joint chiefs of staff and effective rebellion against the president s own stated words and policies. Im sorry, but i grew up in the military that says that you obey orders and you dont debate it. Well, i think that there is a lack of confidence from the commanderinchief, yesterday was the chairman of the joint chiefs and today it was ray or tierno, the general in charge of the army and the chief of staff. We have others weighing in as well. And its possible that its coming. This is a harebrained scheme that we have going in the war against isis. And its a serious thing. Chris, thank you for joining us. My pleasure. Tom i appreciate both of you coming on tonight. Thats it for us tonight. Catch my radio show weekdays. And caputo is next.
