the dow inched out a five point gain erasing a 400 point loss. the s&p dropping six points. the nasdaq falling by 12 points. comments by elon musk during tesla s earnings call wednesday sent shares tumbling. he doned questions about model 3 production and chided analysts for questions he considered boring bone head and not cool. that s it from cnbc. first in business worldwide. now back to mtp daily. i know james comey. i know the president. sorry jim, you are a liar. a disgraceful liar. every fbi agent in america has his head down because of you. i actually think comey is lying. i think comey is a bigger liar than mccabe. i think mccabe is a situational liar. he is a bigger liar. i m sorry hillary, i know you
of it. then you have the guys who are trained terrorists who have some resistance training. over time, they generally tend to communicate with you, depending on what kind of interrogation technique you have. then you have the hard core resistance who never talk. they ll just die in prison before they say a word to you. this guy was the first category. he s talking. he may have said everything. he may have told them everything as part of his plot because he s proud of what little he did. which was, as jim said, he failed even at suicide. he wasn t a suicide bomber. he was a suicider who had a bomb. that didn t even work. jim, if this guy is, you know, the bone head you describe, and it was an amateur device, is there anything law enforcement or anyone can do to surveil for this type of information? we all know and i m anxious saying it that there is a certain faction that will say, i know how to solve it. the issue is immigration. you know, a travel ban would sol it. but a travel
unavailable. the friction sets them off. bombers blow themselves up all the time domestically and internationally. it is a hazardous business wh. when you re a bone head, it is even worse. we are really lucky today that this didn t get worse. this guy was willing to strap a bomb on, go into a crowd with the goal of mass murder and suicide. he couldn t achieve either one, as we just discussed. for that, we re lucky. but we have to be really alert and, you know, malcolm, i like to say he wrote the book on isis because he wrote the book on isis. but when they re putting out this stuff on attacking new york at christmas, we need to pay attention. because they do have capable bombers. this is not all of isis here. the bombs that are laid in the middle east that have been laid from rock out of mosul, these guys can be sophisticated. if they can getdomestically, itr
doug jones had been the u.s. attorney a few weeks then. we caught that bomber, who was also responsible for the olympic bombers. that bomb was more high-tech. this bomb is probably a simple circuit. the bomber hits a switch, presses the button, and it s supposed to detonate. his goal, suicide, mass murder. he can t achieve any of it. he s just a bone head, likely inspired on the web. the thing is, we re lucky, new york is lucky today, but isis has a lot of sophisticated bombers in the theater. i know malcolm can talk about that. you know, these guys can get out. they are sophisticated. they can make sophisticated devices. so we really, really got to stay alert. we re lucky today, but there s more going forward. malcolm, weigh in here. the mayor says there are no other threats to new york city at this time. how can he make a statement like that when you think about all the people that come in and out of this city and how these lone wolves can be inspired at any moment, and it is very
example. he also exploded some bombs prematurely, which prevented him from doing the plot. so these guys, while they read about it, they try to do it, they try to make bombs, they re not always successful. many times get hurt themselves. jim, to bill s point, the police and fbi may be peeling this guy apart piece by piece, but the pipe bomb didn t. you and i spoke earlier today. you said he is not a master bomb maker. i want to share this picture of what appears to be the suspect. he s on the ground being apprehended. it is posted on twirtter and ben confirmed by senior law enforcement officials. step by step, jim, tell us what is happening here. this guy is a bone head. this is probably his first bomb. he is trying to commit suicide, stephanie. he s not successful at that. likely what he had, he has the battery pack, so we know it is electrically fused. he had a pipe bomb. we saw the video of it detonate or a low-water detonate in the
