>> we had presidential scandals, the iran contra affair, the reagan administration was all about did we pay ransom for hostages? when i was in the reagan administration my military assistant was taken hostage in lebanon and tortured and killed. the reason we don't pay ransom is the minute you do they take more hostages. a few people you released got released because of the ransom but you put a x on the back of every american after that point. they got ransom money and two more were taken. maria: this was a secret deal. why is this coming out now that we pay all this cash to iran around the time the nuclear deal was done and to get these hostages back? >> we knew the money had been paid because it was a $1.7 billion payment. it is complicated but money left overrom the 1970s. what we didn't know is there were pallets of cash, actual bills, euros, swiss francs, we delivered to the iranians. the iran deal, closer you look at it, the smelly or it gets. maria: they made a $400 million to iran in foreign currency, transacting in us dollars is a violation of sanctions against iran. what message does a secret deal using foreign currency, what message does that send the american people? >> in the middle of the night on the back of a gulfstream. maria: might as well put it in a paper bag. >> which they did. we also released seven irani in prisoners. this shows the dealmaking we do, remember the taliban and 5, we got bowe bergdahl, gave back 5 taliban commanders and some already got back to the battlefield but most importantly we did this because we wanted a show of good faith. this is on the back of them taking our sailors hostage and putting them -- maria: this happens before that. >> for me this shows, very indicative of the way they engage. they do it secretly knowing the american public would not be happy. maria: the president it sets, the next president will be expected to pay ransom and continuing to go on. this president doesn't understand or care the precedent he is sitting for future american presidents is a bad one. >> it flies in the face of policy we have been encouraging the europeans, we said do not pay isis, do not pay these groups, there are incredible reports, hezbollah is not paying their fighters in cash. iran is the single biggest, the single -- state sponsor of terrorism in the world. not only does it set a precedent that flies in the face of what we are telling our allies for the past 15 years. how does our qaeda and isis make their money? through kidnapping. >> they are paying hezbollah fighters in cash, that money has dried up before the iran deal. dagen: to morgan's point, iran is funding the assad regime. the obama administration is talking about getting rid of assad, we indirectly handed him money. i want to point out what is going on in iran after this payment was made, revolutionary guard commanders on state media came out and said america has to cave to irani in pressure and that is how the american people see it as we rightfully should. the secret payment was made, pallets of cash in foreign currency delivered the same day. the report the hostages were released. >> banks paid millions of dollars, signed hundreds of millions of dollars for transacting any sort of business in iran, same thing the administration and the fed and the department of justice, tens of millions of dollars to banks for doing. maria: a new map released by the national terrorism center shows isis is spreading its reach, a threefold increase in the number of places where isis operates. why has isis spread in so many countries in spite of increased airstrikes and campaigns?

>> what the map doesn't show is the aspirational ones. 18 countries they highlighted, they conducted attacks in 24 countries so it doesn't show but what is happening in europe, it is aspirational in germany. maria: this is one of the reasons people feel hillary clinton is questioned in terms of her approach to isis. on her watch isis has gotten stronger. >> if you think she won't be the third term of barack obama he is campaigning actively for her to be president so it can be his third term. if you like what you had so far you will love hillary clinton. maria: he is protecting his legacy. >> airstrikes alone won't work. we don't have a day after plan. what happens the day after? airstrikes alone don't work, we will see that in libya. libya has collapsed as a country. there are natural resources but no plan. how will you rebuild? dagen: the plan is more intelligence. >> even if we throw troops on the ground, in iraq and afghanistan we can only go so far but who will pick up the pieces? how will you stabilize the country, get rid of the militias? >> a comprehensive approach, economic and ideological, military and diplomatic concept you go after isis, not just a little here or there. dagen: thank you, appreciate time from both of you. the adp report giving the employment picture in the us, more ahead of the crucial july jobs report on friday. look at this hitchhiker, a bear hitching a ride on a garbage truck. we will tell you where he was headed after the break. ♪ [announcer] is it a force of nature?

of original programming trying to step up and give amazon prime. and all the on demand that you get over cable systems and directv. >> they own the contact him a bunch of studios come together and bundle the content together and have that service. it was an answer to netflix. maria: it has been there only push back, so time warner taking a 10% stake, they can effectively go after netflix. >> absolutely and overseas growth is where everyone is going because we reached maturation for netflix. the growth is over. maria: in terms of political advertising, turning to politics the rhetoric on the campaign trail is heating up. hillary clinton's campaign launched a brand-new attack ad on donald trump highlighting his record of outsourcing. >> i am hillary clinton and i approve this message. >> where were these made? >> i don't know where they were made but they were made someplace but they are great. ties, shirts, cufflinks, everything sold at macy's. >> where are the shirts made? >> bangladesh. they have to work too. >> the ties are made where? china? maria: want to bring in political advisor kelly conway. thanks for joining us. how do you respond to that? donald trump basically talking about these trade deals that are not good for america yet all these products he owns are made elsewhere. >> i wouldn't conflate the two. this is typical hillary clinton. if she ever said something positive about her vision take out your breaking news. in this ad she is trying to prove he is outsourcing jobs to other countries. under the very bad deals president obama has made around the globe, that has forced many decisions that would change under a president trump administration. the other thing that is an effective is all you have to do is think about all the money she and her husband have taken out of the country, other developed nations where they made millions of dollars in speeches, favors to take the clinton cash and go around the globe, she is not a legitimate authentic messenger. >> fox news contributor said yesterday clinton has -- the greatest scandal in the history of the united states. they should all be indicted and this is worse than watergate. >> clinton cash is so full of information it is difficult to keep straight because there is so much corruption and special-interest, bill clinton's speeches increased when he was secretary of state. you can look at the graphs. the movie is 61 minutes long. it is relevant because trump and clinton are both trying to be authentic legitimate messengers to the middle-class saying i will give you a voice and you will be better off and safer and more prosperous if i am president. look at their tax plans being compared for those with substantive issues. and economically two candidate in quite a while. >> new outrage this morning, the obama administration dealing with iran, talking about it all day and this is the cover story of the journal, a load of cash for iran, the administration paid iran $400 million in cash to secure the january release of four americans held in tehran. our incompetent secretary of state hillary clinton was the one who started talk to give $400 million in cash to the iran scandal. we don't pay ransom of the country. dagen: we don't but this is a ransom. according to the journal, the exchange of money it was against the law to do business with iran in euros and swiss francs, on a cargo plane. and hostages and prisoners, what happened since that payment? the revolutionary guard arrested two more irani and americans and others from other nations have dual nationality. this is not revealed, $400 million and cash, just raises the issue. >> and the revolutionary guard has taken two more. now they are demanding $2 billion and what are they doing? the irani regime is giving money to assad's regime to fight our own soldiers. >> how do we know donald trump will be better on this? >> this plays into the scandal that has afflicted the clintons. it gets worse. he will be better on this because from the beginning he has been against the iran nuclear deal. most americans when they hear about iran think about the nuclear deal and don't like it. dagen: a state sponsor of terror. and this money most assuredly will go to hezbollah and to fund the assad regime. maria: iran and russia are unable to take down assad and our friend in the middle east that we want to join the fight but we need assad to come down from >> americans know that more than politicians in washington and the obama administration paying attention to issues like this, national security very much in the news, donald trump has a huge advantage and lack of transparency. and she is part of it. but he is not getting support within the party and not supporting them. donald trump declining to enforce two key republicans facing primary challenges, paul w why he hasn't done it, i will release my taxes if you release the transcripts of your paid speeches to wall street. you may want him to tie it to the personal emails the disappeared and put the focus back on her. >> the focus should be on your opponent and she is one of the weakest presidential candidate in recent history. her acceptance speech made 48% more american say they might consider voting for her, that is lower than dukakis, gore and kerry. he is a flawed candidate. people think she lied for a living, keeping focus on her is make it a binary choice. >> we would all be in good shape. dagen: we saw those ads. the way you counter the negative mainstream media criticism is advertising, got to spend some coin he is raising. thank you so much. new plans for usama bin laden's compound 5 years after he was killed by u.s. navy seals was more on the outrageous decision next and a new study might shatter everything you know about flossing. stay with us, back in a moment. maria: usama bin laden's compound in pakistan the center of a turf war. dagen: local authorities in northern pakistan say they want to build a playground on the site but military leaders want to use the land for a graveyard. the al qaeda leader spent his final years in the compound before he was killed by navy seals in 2011. covering 38,000 ft. had been abandoned. to floss or not to floss, that is the question. we have always been told i dentist and dental hygienists to floss our teeth but the need to floss has been put into question. the associated press looked at the most rigorous research focusing on 25 studies, and a combination of toothbrushes and floss and are you ready for this? the study found evidence for flossing is weekend unreliable or of, quote, very low quality, moderate to large potential for bias. what if you don't brush well? facebook trying something new, the company experiment with allowing publishers to take 52nd video ads to facebook live. they indicated they might introduce commercial breaks during live stream. mark stucker berg has been reluctant to show ads directly because it ruins the viewing experience. it would be a moneymaker. >> what has been interesting about facebook is they have not been first movers but fast followers on the waves of things that capitalize. >> facebook live instead of the other live streaming companies. dagen: i try the instagram story last night and it is very snapchaty. >> pictures of charlie. >> futures indicator lower open for the broader

after the financial crisis but his regulatory reform on the agenda in washington? the president and ceo and chairman of the north carolina bankers association, good to see you, thanks for joining us. after all the capital rates you completed, do you feel you have enough capital to put regulators at bay and capital throughout the industry? >> from a regulator perspective those conversations are tough conversations, the capital in the banking industry at the highest level, if you think of the operating efficiency particularly larger banks we are not getting the bang for our buck at that level. we have been growing 10% a year through acquisition or organically because markets were not in and a regulatory expectation at atlanta capital particularly focused on other forms of capital. really looking for common equity, if you look at the stress test the numbers the come out of that, tangible common was really hot focus. maria: strong capital numbers throughout the industry but the broader environment is just okay. are you seeing demand for loans? >> we are very fortunate to be in five of the six best markets. in the upstate in greenville we are seeing a lot of opportunity. you guys were talking about unemployment earlier, we have small businesses, signs in the yard for lots of months trying to hire people, though their $15 an hour jobs, $16 an hour jobs and not getting a lot. dagen: why aren't people willing to step up and take $15 an hour jobs? i am assuming these are not computer programmers. >> plastic injection molds, upholstery, jobs that are manual labor jobs. dagen: not a new skill set. >> not a new skill set but there is some skill involved in intelligent communication but i don't know the answer to that. dagen: businesses are not hiring? >> the business demand is out there for the small business guy, small business guys doing well but again i really want to put on a second shift and they can't find the people to do it. the smaller communities in north carolina particularly, in the metropolitan areas, those small towns are going away the old-fashioned way. a lot of those workers came from there. >> one of the biggest things that happened in answer to increasing regulatory reform of 22,000 pages of dodd-frank and low interest rate environment and consolidation are you seeing more consolidation happening in that sector? >> i am a perpetrator in that regard but you get big or go home. you have to figure out a way to spread the regulatory cost over a larger platform. sharing the association this year, since dodd-frank was enacted 40% of community banks are gone, we used to have 100 and change and we have 50. dagen: do you need to get bigger from where you are now? >> i think we are in a good spot but you need to think of being north of 5 billion. we are beginning to have those conversations. if you go over 10, the cfpb gets your business and you have another hurdle. >> then you cost cut even more. >> you have to think about your real return, $7 billion bank announced recently in north carolina that they were selling and they bought another bank. dagen: there is technology. there is a report that samsung is developing technology, and do we want that, using your eyes. >> it is pretty cool. dagen: what have you seen in banking? that was pretty big. >> my ability to send her money for my fund. my daughter in college, i need to send $8. maria: you transfer from your phone from one account to another. >> transfer to the account. >> it is a social network people are doing it on growing leaps and bounds

cybersecurity it is not about money coming into the bank and getting your money, it is data, protecting data and trying to lockdown the data. two or three years ago, through 14 acquisitions to lockdown data from banks. >> is that one of your biggest expenses in terms of investments going into cybersecurity. >> it really is. the social risk of a breach, reputation risk from a breach is dramatic particularly in the bank space. maria: great to have you on the show. coming of the boston police department adding a cool new ride to its arsenal. an ice cream truck, cold hard cash they are

behind the is a cream truck. >> well, you know a great way to meet young children, you know with so much negativetivity i can't think of a better way to make a lasting impact giving ice creaming in at a cup to a young child that is the way we can build a lot of trust with young kids, make a first impression, that the police are there to help them we are friends, so it has a positive impact on the relationship between us and young children in the city of bonn. >> so this is all about reaching out to young people, and making sure young people understand who the want are, and what they are trying to do. >> exactly. i think sometimes you know, they hear what is going on, and all of a sudden they think we are the bad guys, we enemy, and this is a way what a better way to start a dialogue than our officers in ice cream trucked handing out for zmiedz 0 years ago if you thought our job would be doing something like that would i say you are crazy but that is how this job has changed. maria: and you have. >> the community -- >> you have officers number of staff to do this? you have a time resources to do this? >> well, it is so important that we dedicate them to that very reason, you can go out and chase crime and do whatever, but that is not going to build you know the respect and trust with the community, so if you take care of these little things build the trust respect, then it has huge dividends that no other you know effort that we do out in the cars chasing calls can do, this has a positive impact, and it is an important part of our strategy to interact with community i think we do a great job community of playing. >> since 2010 correct can you talk about since 2010. >> i think we estimate 120,000 hoodies over last five or six years brought out had difficult times, just two weeks ago we had an antipolice march "black lives matter" we rolled ice cream truck out what better than saying we are not bad here have a free ice cream, and so we have used it different areas we have a violent act in playground, you know bring ice cream truck down sort of let kids know that things are okay. and we are here for all of them. >> speaking of "black lives matter" we have seen over the past five years the relationship between certain communities andpts around the country really he are dewhy did this is happen seems you are trying to fix this why have we seen republican between police and ethnic communities like memory are deteriorate over five he past years. >> high profile events ferguson, new york, south carolina, you know, and because of social media, and

highlight the bad things everyone is out there trying hardest to make not only the city of boston safe but this country, and so what is playing out in different parts of the country i think everybody is being painted with the same brush i think that has added to you know, the he is steamy of black polak negativetivity towards police we have to work harder you know do the dirty work as ground level build trust and respect i know body cameras a lot of people are going to those. maria: right. >> i don't think that is fall ball that is just a gadget, working with kids in the schools in the playgrounds, and working with the community, that is the only way we are going to make police minority relationships better. maria: i understand that but in terms of training, police officers would that go farther do you think than ice cream trucks i get what you are trying to do. but i am just trying to understand why that is better than perhaps investing in training for our officers. >> well we do that anyway. this you know, we -- you know we are in for a long time we have beteaching escalation about taking that step back where we could be justified in shooting taking a step back not doing it we are investing in training he we have been, unconscious bias we're doing everything right this is a small piece to help contribute to that we have -- >> in mississippi, edwards police chief mayfield taken his own approach to improving community relations chief mayfield using his own money to ad the words all lives matt to police cars in township do you agree with this approach all of lives matter? >> well, all of lives do matter but i know a controversial statement, i know "black lives matter" the whole statement, goes into you know the history of police community relationships. >> people -- >> yeah you can, so i mean all of lives matter but also "black lives matter" i think that is an accepted message sad we talk about it as a separate a message, but you know, minority communities you know, they talk about the history, and that is why they say all blacks matter want to keep it separated i understand that, so i am very careful every life does matter but i understand their message snools a do you think police officers are pulling back they don't even want to do their jobs effectively the way they used to be, because of this controversy, because they are afraid that they are going to get sl get shot. >> absolutely not. >> you don't believe there is a "ferguson effect"? >> well not here in the city of boston i don't see it. maria: okay. >> haven't made a beat crime continues to go down they continue to work well with community, so you know, things are going really we will here in the city of bonn i can't speak for other departments. >> commissioner good to

obama, this morning, after president strongly criticized the republican nominee blake burman with the latest right now in washington blake. reporter: hi maria good morning to you white house as his backdrop president obama, launched into a 5 1/2 minute diatribe yesterday against donald trump the president asked if preponderance nominee recent comments about russia and gold star parent make him question trump's fitness to be his success as you sayer. >> i think -- republican nominee is unfit to serve as president. i said so last week. and -- uh -- he keeps on progressiving it you woefully unprepared. to do this job. >> the president adding he never questioned if john mccain and mitt romney would have abide abide the norms and rules as he put that it come with presidency but with trump he said quote that is not the case here. trump responded last night on o'reilly factor is in a i think he is one of the worst presidents may be the worst that we have ever had, in the history of our country, i think that hillary clinton maybe has the potential to be even worse. >> that have wasn't all for president he directed many criticisms towards capitol hill questioning why several pop republicans are still endorsing trump. >> pretty extraordinary what has gone on blake, blake burman latest there joining us right now former house speaker fox news contributor newt gingrich good to see you thanks so much for joining us. >> good to be with you. maria: so your take on what is happening newt you have been a supporter of donald trump but this war of words, the president getting involved, how do you see it? >> well, two issues one is trump, the other is obama. >> right. >> obama is a partisan hard left democratic saying what he ought to say as partisan some absurdity, this is a guy remember promised you you could keep your doctor he promised you you could keep your insurance, he either was totally ignorant of own program or plain lied, wrong on syria iraq libya go down to list he lost the crimea wants to whine about putin obama is not exactly the role modeled ren who has achieved a lot we have, by the way, 3400 people killed in chicago, since their hometown president was sworn in, and has done nothing so i think you could get in a nice fight with antibody, trump has a different charge trump is be hasting as though he primaries 17 candidates has not made transition to being the potential president of the united states a much tougher league, people are going to watch you every single day going to take everything they can out of context, and he is not yet performing at the level that you need to i am frankly reminded, joe montana went the law a stretch during his career when he kept throwing are interceptions half a season looked like he wasn't joe montana he figured out what he was doing changed. trump in that slump a series watching a team go out in field throw interception first play back off the sealed a series having interceptions last week that do not bode well for his campaign. maria: can he do it can he what do we have 98 days until the election? can he do it newt? >> he has two huge advantageous country really wants change hillary clinton is most corrupt dishonesty candidate for president the question can he in august slow down take a deep breathe and reorganize how he he is operating so he gets to the standard of a potential president of the united states, he has not done that up to now. it has been significantly a disadvantaged i am totally nor john mccain a great war hero worked hard for veterans totally for paul ryan the heart of the house republican party probably most problem-solving leader we have had in congress on republican side last 20 years, so i think some of what trump is o going is very self-destructive. >>. dagen: when conservatives look at this not like an interception it is a fumble yelling at fan in the stands insulted him. and that is what people worry about fixing that whether that is a fixable problem. >> you are describing playing in philadelphia. >> exactly. >> exactly, look, i think that -- i don't know if it is a fix aboutble problem but i think it is a very big moment for trump he has got to find a way, to slow down, really learn some new lessons a little bit like the apprentice he is apprentice not the boss he doesn't get to say you are fired american people get to sayure fired he has to take a deep brett i think he has portable to win election potential to be a historic president but to do that has to grow into the size of the job, and not get stuck where he has been, frankly over last week i think has been very disheartening to most of his spor supporters thank you what you said about john mccain i know many friends in mibltz reserves veterans with frustedz over some statements against a khan family about john mccain i appreciate you saying that i think, a lot of us are in the military, appreciate your support, trump said john mccain has not been good for swrerveterans i know h licenses to you you are a friend if you can get him to focus not attacking fellow republicans going after hillary clinton the fern competing against i agree with

frustrating here, is you have a very talented businessman might actually become a historic figure but he has to keep every morning get up say only two people i am fighting with barack obama and hillary clinton take on obama, because hillary would be third term you have to win argument whether or not this is good other than those two people every time he talks about anyone else, it is an
