this is something that has been simmering for quite some time here. michael schmidt, we know what happens when this president simmers, sometimes he blows. is jeff sessions job safe? i think it would be well, look, he could get rid of sessions, and that would obviously be a very, very dramatic thing. but it would come literally on the heels of him getting rid of his fbi director. the thing about getting rid of sessions is that session, because he s recused, is not part of the russia investigation. if he was pushed aside, the president would not be criticized for that. ooum not really sure that it makes sense that because sessions recused himself, the russia issue is a problem. it seems like these congressional committees are going to move forward with this, the fbi was going to move forward with it. so it doesn t completely make logical sense to blame it on sessions. i think there s certainly a body of evidence that the government s looking at, that sessions has nothing to do wit
terrorism, may be person with mental difficulties or problems, but doesn t mean he wasn t contacted by smchblt they ve really got to rule that out to make sure it wasn t a trigger that led to this spiral. deb, stand by, rene, and boris as well. cnn is on top of this breaking news story. press conference held in florida moments ago by officials to explain what happened after five people are dead and eight injured as gunman started shooting in baggage area of the ft. lauderdale-hollywood international airport. i know this is a busy time. you ve been talking to investigators, what can you tell us about this suspect? at this point in time i don t have a lot of details about the suspect, other than what you just heard you speak about on
believe him. doesn t mean he wasn t saying it. he was saying that on the campaign trail. he just hired reince priebus as his chief of staff. reince understands all facets of the party. personally he s a very conservative republican himself. but he not only, you know, people say inside in washington he certainly has relationships on capitol hill which is going to serve president-elect trump very well. but he also is very in touch with the grassroots, and the conservative elements of the party up and down. he came up through the grassroots. he was a state party chairman before he got elected rnc chairman so reince kind of, you know, branches across all aspects of the conservative movement. and i think that s why he gets along well with bannon and the other people in the administration that are going to come along. because he s that person that can bring all of them together. hear all those voices, and serve the president well. i think that that s why. politics is a team sport. the admini
that would be quite valuable. poppy, we should remember, if you re out there, again, protesting, that s all fine and well and good and it should happen. but just because a suspect was shot in the back does not mean the suspect was running away. could mean he was. doesn t mean he wasn t. you have to wait to see how the investigation goes. thank you, don. thank you, carlos. don will be on tonight at 10:00 p.m. anchoring cnn tonight. look at the dow. closed down 438 points. the steepest selloff of the year by far. richard quest, host of quest means business with me live. stay with me, next. shopping online. .is as easy as it gets.
even among people who track this. that doesn t mean he wasn t important to the organization. any intelligence collected at the site might not be valuable especially if he had information connected to financial matters on isis. it still remains to be seen not only what the impact of that raid is, but whether it could lead to feature operations against isis because of any intelligence that was picked up. but it s right to point out that the bigger issue here is, you know, whether isis not only in syria and iraq in whether it s advancing or in retreat. certainly over the weekend, the more significant story seems to be not this one-off raid that killed abu sayyaf but the fall of ramadi. i guess i wonder do you get the sense that maybe the pentagon is playing up the killing of sayyaf because of the bad news on ramadi? some would say the pentagon has
