Passenger who recorded the encounter. Lets begin with the military targeting isis in afghanistan with a massive bomb. Wa want to bring in a former Senior Adviser to the Trump Campaign. Major general spider marks and colonel Cedric Leighton and a former department of home land security official. Good evening to all you have. Thank you for coming on. General marks, we start with you.

Also this afternoon, the Daily White House press briefing is scheduled to kick off roughly 45 minutes from you. When it happens well have it for you live.

Down the barrel behind it. Just in no particular order today, today the head of the National Security agency has not been authorized to disrupt russian Cyber Attacks targeting our elections. The head of the nsa said were absolutely not doing enough. Russia is encouraged to do more by the success their efforts thus far, but his hands are basically tied because the president hasnt given him or his agency the daytoday authority to disrupt russias ongoing Cyber Attacks against us. Thats a big story. Also today, the president announced his Reelection Campaign which is strange enough since hes only been in office for a year but then he also chose to name his Campaign Manager for his reelection effort in 2020. Cant use the old Campaign Chairman obviously. Hes got 23 felony counts pending against him, so no, not him. The new campaign chief instead will be the guy that served as trumps Digital Media guru Brad Parscale. As we await word from the special counsel as to whether there will be furthe
