About the continued pressure from the court and capitol hill. Plus, new details on the cash payment between the u. S. And iran. It would have been foolish and prudent, irresponsible for us to not try to maintain maximum leverage. If youre asking me was there a connection in that regard, im not going to deny that. Well ask our sunday panel whether leverage amounts to ransom. Then she was blind. She wrote in great big red letters no more driving. But now working with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to help others gain access to the kind of Clinical Trials that helped him all right now on fox news sunday. And hello again from fox news in washington. It has been a dramatic week for the Trump Campaign, one that included a complete management overhaul. Campaign chairman Paul Manafort resigned over controversy of his chief executive and kelly ann his chief pollster. He expressed regrets over comments hes made. Joining me now is former new york city mayor Rudy Giuliani and advisor to the campaign. Mr. Mayor, welcome back. Great pleasure to be here. Lets talk about the week you had. It was mixed. Theres praise for scripted disciplined speech. Theres been talk of the campaign shakeup. Lets take a look at the this is the reality of what youre dealing with in several key battleground states from ohio to virginia you have mrs. Clinton leading from 2. 8 up to 11. 2 percentage points. How do you turn that around at this point . Well, you know, its really early in that sense. I mean, at this stage of the campaign george bush xli was behind Michael Dukakis by 16 , ronald regan was behind jimmy carter by numbers fairly similar to what you just showed right there. In fact, some of those are within the margin of error. So im not concerned at all. I think donald trump this week had an excellent week, much, much better than Hillary Clinton. In fact, she kind of disappeared for the week except for her one appearance that i remember where she sat with a couple of democratic appointed Police Chiefs trying to claim that she has police support, and i know cop in the United States that supports her. And i know a lot of cops. And lets talk about he he he what he did this week was he outlined in great detail what he wants to do for this country, about islamic terrorism, about the economy, about bringing jobs back. He then made an audible, meaning he changed his schedule to go down to louisiana to bria tension to the people of louisiana while the president is playing golf. The president says of course hes going down on tuesday. That was part of a very busy week for mr. Trump. Lets talk through some of these speeches that hes had. The first one, hes outlined the plan to stop the spread of radical islam. He talked about, quote, extreme vetting. We also have a little bit of his general election ad now airing in several key battleground states. Lets play a bit of that. In Hillary Clintons america the system americans. Syrian refugees flood in. Illegal immigrants convicted of committing crimes get to stay collecting Social Security benefits skipping the line. Our border open, its more of the same but worse. The point of the imagery is it paints immigrants in a discriminatory fashion or uses scare tactics. They want to know what the words extreme vetting means . Can you tell us . Extreme vetting means from countries that house terrorists, launched there is going to be a very, very strict test in order to get into the United States. You dont have a right to come to the United States. Theres no such right to come to the United States so we should be taking in people who believe in us, who believe in what we believe in and who are dedicated to the principle of a nation of laws, not sharia law but american law, and from certain countries where weve had problems its going to be pretty hard for example, taking in Syrian Refugees, which Hillary Clinton wants to increase by 550 , thats 5. 5 times more than obama has brought in. She wants to be the Angela Merkel of the u. S. Isis has told us they are going to putter or list operatives in with those Syrian Refugees. Theyve actually told us. United states. We would have to be out of our minds. What we should do is set up a no fly zone in syria and put them there. Keep them in their country so theyre not flooding germany. Look at how crime has gone up in germany since theyve allowed Syrian Refugees in. All of a sudden you had terror attacks in three or four different places in germany. We dont want that to happen in the United States. We have enough home grown problems than to bri bunch of Syrian Refugees, im sure many of whom are legitimate people, but we are told they are going to hide terrorists with them. And Hillary Clinton Hillary Clinton wants to increase that by five times. So she wants to make the risks five times worse than it already is, and we already have 1,000 investigations, according to the director of the fbi, of terrorists here in the United States. She wants to add to the 1,000 investigations. Lets talk about another speech that mr. Trump gave this week. He did something that we have publicly. He talked about having regrets. Lets play a bit of that speech and also mrs. Clintons response. Sometimes in the heat of debates and speaking on a multitude of issues you dont choose the right words or you say the wrong thing. I have done that. Believe it or not, i regret it. He is still the same man who insults gold star fami disabilities and thinks he knows more about isis than our generals. There is no new donald trump. This is it. Mayor, do you think he can win over his critics, convince them hes truly sorry . First of all, id like to see her apologize to lying to gold star mothers when she gave them a false narrative of how their sons were killed at benghazi and said it was about a muhammad was a terrorist attack because she had told her daughter that the night before or the night before that. Id like to see her apologize for all the money that the Clinton Foundation has been taking, lets say from saudi arabia where women are not allowed to drive. You tell me shes a feminist and she takes money from a country where women are not allowed to drive . You tell me shes a feminist when she spent a great deal of time covering up a lot of the misdeeds of her husband and engaged in a lot of the attacks on th shes a feminist except where it comes to her husband where she attacks the women who are telling the truth about him. So she deserves to give the American People an apology. She certainly should give us an apology for having been found completely careless in handling National Security information. Jim comey said that. She should apologize for lying on this show about what jim comey said. Were going to talk more think that its possible for him at this point, for people who have written him off because of some of his comments, do you think theyre going to accept that, expression of regret, not an apology but expression of regret. Do you think it is . I think it is. I think youre going to see that throughout the rest of the campaign. Donald trump is extremely focused now. If you look at this entire week you can see it was focused on issues, hard issues, tough issues, issues on which the American People agree with him and wh 65 to 75 of the American People believe the country is going in the wrong direction. If he can convince them that he is the person who will lead us, then certainly hes the only one that will give us change. What theyre trying to do the Clinton Campaign has no campaign. She hardly appeared this week. I dont know where she was. Why is she doing so well in the polls . Why . Its working for her. Michael goodwins column in the new york post. You can figure out what her campaign is. She doesnt have to campaign. She has the new york times, she has the daily news, she has abc, she has cbs, she has nbc. She has an entire media empire that constantly demonizes donald trump and fails to point out that she hasnt had a press conference in 300 days, 200 days, 100 days, i dont know how long. Fails to point out of illness by her. All you have to do is go online. Which her campaign and other people defending her saying theres nothing factual to the claims about her health and that thats speculation at best. Go online and put down Hillary Clinton illness, take a look at the videos for yourself. Okay. I want to make sure that we get to something that is criticism coming from within the party and give you a chance to answer that because this week 123 republicans, some current other top gop leaders wrote a letter to Reince Priebus urging him to divert their money away saying, quote, we believe that Donald Trumps divisiveness, recklessness, incompetence and record breaking unpopularitily will turn this into a democratic landslide and only the available shift of all rnc resources will help the party from drowning around its neck. The most amazing thing to me is that republicans would do that to other republicans. I had the great honor and privilege of working for ronald regan. In fact, hes the only president i ever worked for. He always believes the 11th commandment is dont attack another republican. So im embarrassed for the other people who wrote that. Im embarrassed for how frightened they get. Thats not a sign of leadership. Reality is he is not that far behind. He is well within striking range in every one of the key states and in a couple of other states that most republicans dont have a chance of winning. So this is unnecessary fear on their part. And im sort of really disappointed in them but, look, donald trump is not a typical republican democrat liberal conservative candidate. This is an outsider campaign. She is the consummate corrupt washington insider, and she is thoroughly corrupt, and so is the Clinton Foundation. If i were back in my old job as u. S. Attorney i would probably indict the Clinton Foundation as a racketeering enterprise. They took money from money launderers, criminals, dictators, people who abuse women as a matter of Government People who gave money to the Clinton Foundation. For example, ubs gave the clintons altogether over 1 million. She made a call to the irs asking the irs to go easy on their attempts to get identities from ubs. In my day that was considered bribery when i was a u. S. Attorney and i prosecuted several very prominent politicians and convicted them of bribery, including two congressmen. Mr. Mayor, weve got to leave it there. Again, the Clinton Foundation and all those they are not under investigation and theyve been clear and transparent so we will stay tuned because there are those urging thats the biggest bunch of garbage i have ever heard. Mr. Mayor, we appreciate your time. The biggest bunch of garbage. They are, i believe, under investigation. There was a leak of that the other day. Number two, if theyre not, the Justice Department should be ashamed of itself. All right. We have to leave it there. Thank you so much for joining fox news sunday, sir. Thank you. Up next Hillary Clinton is her email testimony hurt her campaign. A top clinton supporter ben carden joins us. Next, what do you think of Trumps Campaign shuffle . Is it going to get him the help he needs . Is it going to get him the help he needs . Let us energy is a complex challenge. People want power. Is it going to get him the help he needs . Let us and power plants account for more than a third of energyrelated carbon emissions. The challenge is to capture the emissions before theyre released into the atmosphere. Rking to make this technology better, more affordable so it can reduce emissions around the world. Thats what were working on right now. . . Im just a guy who wants to buy that truck. And im just a guy who wants to sell him that truck. So i used truecar. It told me what other people in the area paid for the truck i want. And because were a truecar certified dealership, i already know the truck he wants. Look good . Looks great. This is how car buying was always meant to be. This is truecar. . . Look outside the beltway at the city hall in baltimore. Democratic side. Hillary clinton will have to answer questions about her private email server under oath. On friday emmitt sullivan, a president clinton appointee, ordered Hillary Clinton to respond to written questions from Judicial Watch, a conservative group that has extensively looked into her emails. Joining me now to discuss the problems ahead is senator ben carden. Welcome back to fox news sunday. Good to be with you. Thank you very much. Lets talk about the friday ruling by he wants answers under oath because, quote, secretary clinton has not answered for the record and under oath questions relative to the limited scope of discovery for the purpose and creation and operation of a clinton email. Com system for state department business. I think her closest aides at the state department do not have knowledge of her purpose in using the system. In response to this democratically appointed independent judge, will mrs. Election . I think shes going to fully cooperate. Shes pleased it can be done by questioning rather than live questioning. So but this has already been done. Mr. Comey has already made his findings that theres no criminal involvement here. Three former secretaries of state used private email servers. They did not use private email servers. Theres questions whether they used private email accounts, g mail, but they did so only under secured purposes. Well, it is. There is supposedly Sensitive Information by former secretaries of state that were used in that context. This is not unique. Quite frankly senator corker and i want to look at this after the elections to find the best way we can use Electronic Transfer of information by the state department. So this is an issue that we need to deal with. But as far as whats being done now, look, this lawsuit is being done by a group that since the partisan group attacking Hillary Clinton. This is a partisan attack. At the end of the day its used to try to distract from the important issues of this campaign, the differences between donald trump and Hillary Clinton. They have Judicial Watch made it very clear that they are very dogged about going after these emails. Theyve uncovered Things Congress couldnt get, other bodies couldnt get. Theyve had success. Theyll continue. In the meantime the gop leaders of t h oversight are now pushing for a potential perjury investigation, taking director comeys own statements and putting them up against mrs. Clintons statements. Saying there are some discrepancies. Theyve asked the u. S. Attorney to take a look at that. Do you think the American People can believe there will be an open and transparent investigation . Its strictly a partisan witch hunt. Degree of interest in Paul Manaforts connection in russia and what weve seen in regards to the Trump Campaign and the business deals donald trump has had in russia. It would be nice to see if they had involvement of what russia did in our campaign. Instead they continue to go after the email issue even as i said director of the fbi, director comey indicated that is not the case. He raised questions about extreme cael handling of classified email. We have this poll of whether people believe she is honest and trustworthy. 38 believe she is. 59 believe shes not. Where do you think that perception comes from . I dont know. Ive known Hillary Clinton for a long time. Shes trustworthy. Shes ready from day one to assume the office of presidency, shes qualified and shes ready as compared to i think donald trump who has shown his recklessness and dangerous in chief, his qualifications, no, its not there. Lets talk about the fact that the Clinton Foundation has been abuzz this week. Theres been talk about a potential hack, potentially by russian interests and theres been a statement by bi bill clinton. The boston globe said it should be shut down. They said in part, the inherent conflict of interest was obvious when Hillary Clinton became s she promised to maintain a separation between her official work and the foundation but recently released reports that the supposed partition was far from impregnable. They go on to say, listen, if donors really care about the foundations goals they can find other ways to use their resources to that end. Do you think the foundation should shut down altogether . First, lets recognize what the foundation has been able to do. The Clinton Foundation has been saved countless lives. 10 Million People its helped. Its extremely important to global health. Theyve done some really great things. Now with Hillary Clinton being elected president , which we hope it will be, they clearly need to change the way they do business. Theyve indicated they will. Theyre not going to accept any donations from foreign entities, theyre going to change the way that the clintons themselves interact with the foundation. Those decisions will be made appropriate to Hillary Clinton as president of the United States. We will watch. By the way, you mentioned the Health Benefits and thing the Clinton Health Access Initiative apparently is a part of the foundation but saying its not yet made its own decision about what its going to do. Those activities and donations may continue as well. Lets talk about donald trump because im sure you would like to do that. This week he made several appeals to the Africanamerican Community. I want to play a bit of what he said tuesday in wisconsin. The Africanamerican Community has been taken for granted for decades by the democratic party. Clinton which panders to and talks down to communities of color and sees them only as votes. He talked about crime rates in minority neighborhoods, failing education, high unemployment. Does he have a point . No. I think theres a clear difference between donald trump and Hillary Clinton on their economic message which is critically important to the africanamerican minority communities. That is Hillary Clintons program will help all. She wants to invest in building our roads, build our energy infrastructure. She wants to invest in people, debt free higher education. She pays for it in a responsible way by asking those who are taking jobs away from america to pay an exit fee as well as closing loopholes. Donald trumps widening loopholes for the wealthiest in the nation. No, theres no comparison to which candidate speaks to the needs of the middle class families. Well talk a little bit more about their economic plans you about Foreign Policy. Youre the Ranking Member on the Senate Foreign relations committee. You were very vocally and publicly opposed today iran deal. There are new revelations this week, fallout about the 400 million payment that was converted into foreign currency, given to the iranians. This week the state department admitting that there was some direct connection with the release of americans that were being held in iran about that. I want to play what president obama said august 4th and what the state department is sa we didnt here and we dont we wont in the future precisely because if we did, then we would start encouraging americans to be targeted. It would have been foolish, imprudent and irresponsible to not maintain maximum leverage so if youre asking me was there a connection in that regard at the end game, im not going to deny that. To a lot of people it sounds like a ransom payment. Of this year. Secretary clinton was no longer secretary of state. This is under secretary kerry. Clearly what was done here is we paid money that we owed. We were going to have to pay this money. It was clear and to the extent it had anything to do with hostages, i think secretary kerry made it clear that money would not be released unless our hostages were back home. So i think what theyre saying is, no, its not paying ransom. We wont do that. But we made it clear we understand we owe the money and were going to have to pay the money but we our people are protected. A top iranian general said, quote, this money was returned to the freedom of the u. S. Spies and it was not related to the nuclear negotiations. So if theres a perception here, regardless of whether anyone wants to use ransom that there is leverage in taking americans and getting something in exchange, isnt the perception part of the problem anyway, especially for our enemies . Weve had at least two more americans taken by iranian authorities since this payment. Whatever the iranians say, you can believe just about the opposite. They rarely tell us what is going on. America has a very strong policy. The Obama Administration has carried out that policy. No, we will not pay ransom because that only encourages more to be taken. I agree with that point. We are not going to pay ransom. Here we had to make this payment. It was a matter of when we were going to make it. It was litigated in american courts, money that was owed, it predates the american the Administration Made judgments as to when to pay it. You can understand the perception would cause a problem. I understand perception. Understand this was well understood at the time in january. It has nothing to do with Hillary Clinton. She was not secretary of state at the time. Just make sure people understand. Not asking in that context but just about this administration. I want to ask you about syria as well because this week the video and the pictures and images of this little boy, the 5yearold being taken out of the rubble after this airstrike hit his family. Dying as a result of that airstrike. This comes five years after president obama said it was time for bashar assad to step aside. Five years later we have millions of refugees who have left the country, hundreds of thousands by all accounts who are dead. Why is this apparently worse than ever before, the chaos in syria . Yeah. Part of the problem, of course, is that russia is helping the Syrian Regime. The Syrian Regime has committed atrocities and we see that in aleppo, we see that in other parts of of course, the isil forces that are also causing these problems. But what could we have been doing better . What you have to do, you have to work with our international partners. Thats what the Obama Administration has done. We cant police the world. If we put our troops there, its going to be counter productive, we know that. We have to build up local capacity, exactly what the Obama Administration has done. We are regaining territory, at we have to continuously do that until there is no longer an isis and the caliphate is over. We all look forward to that day. Senator ben carden, thank you. Good for coming back. Thank you. Up next, trump resets his campaign again. Well bring in our sunday group to discuss the shakeup. Plus, what would you like to ask the panel about house cottage cheese doesnt have to be just plain cottage cheese. With hood, it can be. . Hey . Peach on a bagel. . Uhhuh . . Hey . Pineapple on a waffle. Or cucumber and dill as a dip. With eight delicious flavors of hood cottage cheese, the possibilities are endless. Always good. Always hood. Try new honey pear and maple vanilla. I think what he didnt like is who should Hillary Clinton be. Donald trumps new Campaign Manager kellyann conway. Its now time for our sunday group. Fox news political analyst williams. Juicily pace and the campaign for the Associated Press and charles hurst. Want to begin with the news that Hillary Clinton will have to testify under oath about the use of a private email server while serving as secretary of state. Michael, her campaign by the way, we have a statement from brian fallon i should put up taking this as a sort of victory. This is trying to hurt Hillary Clintons campaign. We are glad the judge has accepted our offer to answer the questions in writing rather than grant Judicial Watchs request which was a deposition which is a different thing. Still these answers are under oath and theyre very specific questions about her server. Its important. Its good for the American People. Theres been a lot of conversation about Hillary Clintons emails from a National Security standpoint. This gets at a different question. Was she trying to hide her emails and hide her business i think theres a more important aspect to it. Hillary clinton is a master at parsing words to the point where they have no meaning and using those words to Say Something thats a lie to the American People. A couple of weeks ago she was on this show and she was asked by Chris Wallace a number of very specific questions about whether she lied to the american public. She said that the fbi director said that she had been truthful in her responses. Well, the fbi director was talking about her responses to the fbi, not the american of saying what your definition of the word is is. Theyve given American People the opportunity. You have 30 days to answer the questions once they get to her. We expect Judicial Watch will get them out promptly. We want the answers before november 8th. Theres one pending regarding emails into october of 2018. I think they would be smart not to push it past the election. Its so blatant. They have made the big deal of wanting to answer questions and see the answers. This is a perfect opportunity. They do see this as a win in the sense that they can do these written answers which obviously gives them more control than if this were in a deposition and would be very fair for republicans and democrats to criticize them for that. Well stand by to see how quickly those questions get to her. Thats the key at this point. From facebook we have a question from annette demass auld. I would like to know if the standard for justice is the same for average americans as it is for hillary. Charles . Fair question. Just last week we saw where a navy s. E. A. L. That was involved in the Osama Bin Laden raid wrot day, was forced to hand over all the proceeds, some 6 million from the book. Basically for violating the nondisclosure rings which is a serious issue. My goodness, you have the secretary of state showing such cavalier disregard for National Security, our secrets. And nothing happens to her and then you have a guy whos risking his life doing the same sort of thing and, man, they really they drop a ton of bricks on him. It looks incredibly unfair. Juan, are you ready for the story to go away . I dont think it goes away. In fact, its the way it goes away, shannon. If it goes away because people perceive that there is, as the facebook writer suggested, an unequal dispensation of justice in america and that the rich and famous and politically connected have one of us have another, then i think it damages everybody, not only Hillary Clinton but it plays into the idea that you hear from so many trump supporters, oh, the system is rigged, the election is rigged. They did not make a mistake. There is no legitimate basis for prosecuting Hillary Clinton. 6 could it be interpreted differently, i think were going to see a lot of that. Guess what, republicans are under pressure given the poll numbers that you have cited this morning that show her beating donald trump convincingly. He didnt treat her with kid gloves. M she was extremely careless. Foreign hostile actors were able to access her communications. This is somebody who wants to be the commander in chief and handle the most Sensitive Information. Thats a legitimate argument to be made. This was exhaustively reviewed by the fbi. If you talk to the Clinton Campaign people, there were hours of testimony before the congress and we still have no not under oath. But it does go your point. Yeah, exactly. It goes to the issue of her judgment and whether she was fit to be the top commander. I think thats fair. I think she comes across to my mind as entitled, privileged, deciding she can set the rules, right . She doesnt come across. She is entitled by privilege. At the beginning of the w bannon being contacted. We were told it was in addition. What do you make of the changes in the campaign . I think there was a period where they said donald trump needs to stop being provocative. You need to give poll tested answers. Thats not Donald Trumps brand. Its not what got him this far. Republican nominees did. Using provocation to get attention to talk about serious issues, lets talk about the serious issue of how isis got on the scene. The reason that isis is the global threat and not the jv team, they avoid president obamas procedures. When donald trump is being provocative by starting conversations about that, by starting conversations about whether liberal domestic policies have helped people in provocation getting media, being his best and linking it to his actual purpose. Its when the provocations are more a nile lis stick. I think this is trump saying im going to be provocative, im going to be myself. It needs to be connected to good conservative movement. Kellyann conley has been connected and steve bannon. Message. It allows donald trump to be donald trump. Hopefully tying it to good conservative policies. Julie, would he see a lot of praise for him for the disciplined teleprompter courses, talking about law and order, going against isis and expressing regret. This was no doubt Donald Trumps best week in quite a long time. The problem for trump is that he doesnt get the benefit of the doubt anymore when have a one off good speech or a strong week because weve seen that before. If you remember when paul man na for the was hired, he was doing well. Can trump get up there day after day, week after week and to michaels point, both be himself but also focus on his core message, focus on policy . The electorate, when he talks about being an outsider, when he talks about being the only candidate that can bring change. That will resonate with people. That gets lost under so many other things. Im not sure he can maintain this for two and a half more months. I think the pivot is lucy and the football. Every time charlie trusts that shes really going to hold it, no. Whos he going to apologize, ted cruz, ted cruzs dad, ted cruzs wife . Lucy right now is the American People or im going to tell you, republicans who want to vote for a republican and who keep thinking if he changes, i could do it. All right. Panel, weve got to leave it there for now. The state Department Admits the u. S. Held off paying iran until american hostages were freed, but do not call it ransom. Are you all right . No. I cant believe you shot me. Welcome to my house. Its my house. We do not pay ransom. We didnt here and we dont we wont in the future. We took advantage of the momentum, and it would have been foolish and you and i would have been having a much different conversation if we had gone ahead and released the money and then iran reneged on the deal. The Obama Administration under fire after the state department conceded a link of some kind between a 400 million payment to iran and the release of u. S. Prisoners in january. Were back now with our panel. Families who have been paid out damages related to the death of their loved ones. That 400 million that was sitting there that everybody keeps saying was irans money, those families thought they were being paid and it was sitting around waiting to be returned to iran. This week they find out thats not the case with that money. Yeah. It really is. This whole the administration has handled this whole thing so terribly. And i love i dont love appearance that it looked like a ransom. Well, the appearance is all that matters because this is why, you know, iran abducts people. This is why we have the problem in the first place because of the appearance that you can actually, you know, win one over on the United States and this of course, obviously the 400 million is you know, thats the highest bounty that, you terms of encouraging this sort of this sort of behavior. Well, and the fact that, one, iran had taken we know at least two americans in since that payment and who knows whats going to happen or what kind of negotiation there will be over the two of them. As charlie said, at the end of the day, okay, maybe at the end of the day they dont want to use the word ransom. But if the end result is now that americans are endangered, whats the difference . There is none. The appearances and the way the administration handles this really seems to be guilty of malfeasance. Initially they said we are being so transparent. We talked about this in january. We put out a press release, et cetera. Whats the news here . There was no connection. Now we know this week given admiral kirbys statement, its one of using leverage. It was negotiated on a separate track. The timing came together because iranians now. We had the opportunity to incyst that the hostages be in flight before the money landed. I get that. I think the appearances were talking about present a real problem. On the other hand, if i was doing a negotiation and i was holding the money and shannon had my hostage, id say, shannon, let my people go. I understand that. Im saying the other point to be made quickly, there are some families out there, American Families who still have their loved ones being held and obviously the United States is not paying any ransom them. We all remember a couple of years back there were families who had loved ones missing who said they were threatened by the u. S. Government they would potentially face prosecution if they engaged in a ransomtype deal. Absolutely. This is part of a much larger debate about how the u. S. Deals with countries that are holding or terror groups that are Holding American citizens. When you talk to some of these families, they actually in some cases want the u. S. Government to be paying ransom or taking steps that we dont take. To try to get money to release their loved ones. I think any of us if we were in those situations would look for some way around this. So you can understand if you are a Family Member of someone who has been killed while held overseas or a Family Member of someone still overseas, why this rings really hollow to you. It should also be put in the context of the entire iran deal. We now know that the United States gave 1. 7 billion of foreign cash to iran. We gave 150 billion of we allowed them access to Ballistic Missiles technology, International Arms and we released seven criminals that the United States was holding all to get an extraordinarily complicated framework thats going to be hard to enforce and at the end of which iran will be a nuclear state. This fs a horrible deal. This ransom is one component of this horrible deal. There was one done by a Foreign Policy and they were so intent on getting the Foreign Policy to take a step back, what are we getting, what are we giving . Does that make sense . We want to lead into syria. We saw the images of a little boy who lost his brother after this family was hit. He comes from the rubble. Hes stunned. You see him touch his forehead and realize looking at his little hand that theres blood here. This conflict has been raging for years, but it took this little boy to restart the conversation and get the attention. Now if we look at the money that just went to iran, their propping up the assad regime, now they have an extra 1. 7 billion that they could use to that end, five years ago this is what the president said about syria. We have consistently said that president assad must lead a democratic transition or get out of the way. He has not led. The time is for president assad to step aside. Juan, five years later we have that little boy, millions displaced, hundreds of thousands dead. Its a tragedy. I have a grandson. You just your heart just goes out to him. You know, shannon, there was a picture also of a dead child washing up on the shore earlier. So you understand the number of people. I think its now more than 400,000 that have lost their lives in this conflict. Again, you come ba being to what can we do . The argument would be, do we want to enforce that red line . What would that mean . It doesnt mean just airstrikes, it would mean potentially putting American Forces at risk. I dont think the American People want to do th one thing one thing is you dont draw a red line that you then ignore. When the president made that statement five years ago assad was in a very, very tough position. It looked like he might his government really might fall. There probably could have been some things that we could have done that would have helped that happen, but the problem this is a problem weve seen with this administration all along, is that they they just squander our leadership. Russia is flying sorties out of there and firing tomahawks out of the mediterranean sea. The Obama Administration has completely removed the United States from being a legitimate voice. Let me just quickly add that i think that this story will be in the news for the next few weeks because the United Nations is now i think going to issue a report indicating that the use of chemical weapons has continued and if thats the case, then it will be over this. Were back to the red line though. We are. Look, i think if you are a voter in this election and you look at that picture of that little boy and you feel sick to your stomach like most of us do, you should look at your president ial candidates and demand a plan. Neither Hillary Clinton or donald trump have a plan for addressing the civil war in syria. So much of the debate about syria has been overtaken by the Islamic State and that is very heard a president ial candidate lay out a plan for how they would address that. Whats going on in syria is the direct result of the Foreign Policy of president obama, Hillary Clinton, and john kerry. We are going to give leadership to russia, to iran. You look at what could have been done. We shouldnt have left a void in iraq. We should have enforced our red line. We should have gotten involved earlier in supporting Syrian Opposition forces. We could have started the bombings when we did more threatening bombings. This is an administration that does not perceive america as having a leadership position in the world. The result of its whats going on in syria and history is going to look back very, very illfavorably on whats going on. Theres a longer history than the one you described when it comes to nation building, to promoting democracy in the middle east. We can go back to republican administrations as well and that when you are talking about that kind of american involvement, the congress of the United States never voted to support president obama on the use of military strikes against the assad regime. But remember what was happening as that vote was coming forward and the backdown that happened. One has to remember when they really thought they were going to have to face that vote in congress. Yes. They wanted it but they never got it. Yeah. Well, sometimes you dont want what you got and you dont got what you want. All right. Thank you very much, panel. Well see you next sunday. Up next, were going to it was a life changing diagnosis, but he didnt take no for an answer. After beating the odds doug oliver is inspiring congress to Work Together to help others gain access and to fund medical studies that could immediately change lives. There was no treatment available, no cure and no hope for a treatment in the near future. Doug oliver was in 40s when he noticed a rapid decline in his ability to see. He had no idea when he went to see his eye doctor that he would leave with a grim lifechanging diagnosis. He would soon go blind. The most difficult thing was at that same appointment he wrote in great big red letters, no more driving. And so my life changed that day. Oliver gave up his drivers license but not his determination to find a cure. Trials. He found one in florida but it came with a hefty price. He raised the money with scores of donations. Within days of treatment he began to regain his sight. Hes lending his voice to a Bipartisan Group of senators. He wants to make cutting edge treatments more accessible and affordable. Their aim is to spur cures in the short term and money saving solutions over the long dr. Francis collins says within the next ten years well be using stem cells from your own body to restore a diseased heart. Up to now youve got to have a heart transplant. He says well have a vaccine for zika, a vaccine for hiv aids. Well be able to identify alzheimers before you see its symptoms. The house has already passed its version of the legislation bills the senate is hoping to pass, House Speaker paul ryan has agreed to work out the differences in a conference this fall giving supporters real hope that it will reach president obamas desk before the end of the year. And that hell sign something that skeptics say rarely comes together anymore in washington. A major legislative package hammered out by crossing the aisle. So you would think that if president obama, the Republican House and Bipartisan Senate are for this, we could get it done. Thats why im drivers license back but was able to see his grandchildren for the first time. Lawmakers still need to hammer out exactly how theyre going to fund the new medical initiatives.
