covid-19. brian: looking for excuses, mr. president, this is your economy, whether you like it or not. these are your citizens, whether you like it or not, have you to work on their behalf, stop looking for excuses and passing this off. americans want to see the president get serious. todd: talk about twitter, maybe the company s final earnings report before it goes private. reporting operating loss for q1, how do you interpret this new? brian: these are not great results, this is why twitter is for sale, the company has been managed poorly. elon musk saw that and sees potential and wants to buy it, the reason the twitter board agreed to a deal is because they knew it wasn t going to be great and wanted to lock him in. people were not enthuzed about using it, it is not making money, two things elon musk can
a conclusion and the negotiations are going to continue and one of, one source told us that the president s mind on testifying has changed dramatically since the cohen raid. as long as we re talking about michael cohen. one source described it as a seismic shift, that the president was willing to testify before, but then when he saw the raid on michael cohen s office, he completely changed his mind. so now you have a president saying you know what, if you want me, you re going to have to come and get me. all right. everybody stick around. more breaking news we re following. the fired fbi director, james comey, facing americans tonight, answering questions about president trump and the russia investigation in a whole new way. stay with us. t s going to surprise your daughter? absolutely. wait, is mom here yet? where s mom? she s in this car. what the heck? whoa. yo, whose car is this?
american people understand it s a challenging time around the world. and we face situations where we had individuals traveling to isis from countries western countries, even some americans that have been joining in this fight. so this is a dangerous time around the world. we need to be more vigilant and more aggressive in fighting global terrorism. martha: if isis is growing and we are not getting the upper hand on regaining territory which seems to be the take of the military and intelligence out there then you have got the issue of the 100-plus americans who traveled to the region to train according to james clapper yesterday. what are we doing to pull pass ports and follow up on these people to figure out who they are? how is that intelligence evident going so we don t end up with someone coming back with a bomb blowing up an entire area and then we find out he was on a
watchlist. there is efforts underway to keep track of these americans. what worries my is many of these europeans who have gone and fought with isis, they are part of our visa waiver program. if they don t get on our watchlist they can travel to the united states and i think that s a type, deep concern. i m not the only one concerned. people like dianne feinstein has expressed concern about this as well. it s one thing to express concern but is anyone doing anything about this to make shower our intelligence officials are doing evening they can to lobbied administration to adopt a policy that s more similar to what they are doing in london and parts of europe and england to pull people s pass ports? absolutely. many of us have been pushing the administration on this and pulling passports and getting things done for much longer than the last couple months.
