Dangerous for Everybody And America is bankrolling that. And then there is the naked political reality that anything that benefits netanyahu in this period is not necessarily going to benefit Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are democrats in this period. You are talking about Vladimir Putin who wants Donald Trump to win. Benjamin netanyahu wants Donald Trump to win. The differences the biden administration is in many ways helping Benjamin Netanyahu providing him the impunity to do things that wind up with Killing Palestinians and lebanese and endangering israelis but also increase the possibility of Donald Trump pain president. Then there is just the whole human told. There is the expectation that there is going to be retaliation on the part of hezbollah and i wonder how you are girding yourself as we are in this strange interregnum period. I guess there could be more explosions tomorrow, but as we and global Community Sit and wait for retaliation from hezbollah for taxes real began. The bi
Vladimir putin wants donald trump to win. Benjamin netanyahu wants donald trump to win, but the difference is the biden administration is in many ways helping benjamin netanyahu, providing him the impunity to do the very things that not only end up killing palestinians and lebanese and endangering israelis, but also increase the possibility of donald trump being president. How does that make any sense as policy from a democratic administration? and then there is the human toll. The expectation that there will be retaliation on the part of hezbollah and i wonder how you are guarding yourself as we are in this strange period. I guess there could be more explosions tomorrow, but as we sit and wait for retaliation from hezbollah for attacks that israel began the day before yesterday. The biden administration has to use american leverage these iv israel to get israel to recognize that it s problem with hezbollah and with gaza is a diplomatic problem and the way to get an end to the rocket f
violence. let s go straight to more, tracking so much of what has done said on line. death threats have been out there, some general like social media posts urging people to kill all feds. but there have also been very specific threats, in particular aimed at the attorney general, merrick garland, and the florida judge who signed and then unsealed that search warrant. how concerned are federal officials about about this going from online threats to actual violence? reporter: yeah. well, sources told our colleague josh campbell that the fbi s investigating an unprecedented number of threats against its personnel including some of its agents. and you can really see that playing out on line since right after the news of that search of mar-a-lago broke on monday. i want to show you some of the kind of messages that have been posted. you mentioned there s one called kill awed feds, another lock and load, another person writes, i m going to say it, garland needs to be assassina

of government records. as of now, we should note no one has been charged with a crime. trump s first line of defense was to baselessly suggest the fbi may have planted evidence while in his home. plan b, trump had declassified documents before the fbi seized them. so they re both declassified and planted. does that make any sense? the espionage act does not hinge on whether documents are classified. the trump team s latest move is to blame a government agency for moving boxes of classified information to mar-a-lago claiming, quote, that s not on the president. now, new this afternoon, the democratic chairs of both the house intelligence and oversight committees have written a letter to the director of national intelligence saying they want a damage assessment and briefing regarding these documents recovered from mar-a-lago, whether they posed some sort of national security risk to the country. joining me to talk about this is the former director of national intelligence, jame
