any more reaction to what we heard from john podesta? campaigntell you that sources have told me that donald trump is on out to the hilton where i am currently, and will likely address his followers in his room. respond to a we just heard from john podesta from the clinton campaign about their decision for hillary clinton to not make comments tonight. clearly the crowd in this room and everyone in this country are waiting to hear what donald trump will say, how he will discuss the events tonight, and again, his first remarks since ballots were cast, his first public appearance since he voted for himself earlier this morning. began -- bensent damned, donald trump is going to speak tonight. >> he knows he has a divided nation, he knows that there are a lot of strong feelings, some of which he launched. i would expect him to try and be as conciliatory as possible. i think he would try to set the tenor for actually getting something done and getting something accomplished in a trump administration. i think this is an externally important mom

john podesta. i'll tell you what, if he worked for me i would fire him so fast. he is such a nasty guy. i would fire him. like "the apprentice," john, you're fired! nasty guy. >> and donna brazile and debbie wasserman schultz. she hires people that help her cheat, people that have e-mails that are racist, sexist, misogynistic and if it was donald trump they would have to be fired. that was more of donald trump earlier talking about the latest wikileaks revelations about the clinton camp. also tonight, just how much trouble is top clinton aide huma abedin really in? we searched through the state department freedom of information act archive and found what appears to be a legal agreement signed by abedin when she left the state department. it is commonly known as an of109. by signing this ab zine swore she turned overall classified documents to the federal government. but as we now know, the fbi is reportedly searching through 650,000 e-mails found on anthony weiner's laptop that could include and contain classified information from huma. joining us now with reacti

john podesta has been caught saying we have to dump all of those e-mails. you can believe this? that's wikileaks. and he also said, to me this made a big -- a big statement, john podesta, i'll tell you what if he worked for me, i would fire him so fast, he is such a nasty guy. i would fire him like "the apprentice," john, you're fired. >> reporter: and trump is reminding people here in wisconsin and a handful of other states that they can actually change their vote if they cast an absentee ballot but it's an option rarely used by voters. john and christine. >> thank you so much. the campaign is denouncing a show of support from the official newspaper of the ku klux klan. this is the front page of "the crusaders." it borrows the statement "make america great again." the campaign says this is repulsive and in their views does not unite the tens of millions of americans who are uniting behind our campaign. and now, of course, the trump campaign much quicker to move on it. >> much quicker, denounced what is reported to be from a white nationalist robocall in ut

then this guy kadzik, best friend of john podesta. and we've got information that the justice department as well as state department tipping on the clinton campaign. kind of like cnn giving questions ahead of time. they cheat at everything apparently. how is that that the fbi or agent are clearly leaking this information because they feel an invu injustice has been done. >> they don't trust the higher-ups of the justice department which is why they are going through this extreme at the fbi. they have been stonewalled along wait by doj, by loretta lynch, who you would imagine is probably consulting with someone in the white house, and this he thing is being stonewalled. they decided look, we have to keep our. this is about doing it the right way. i'm telling you when you start throwing around possibilities of five to ten years in federal prison for federal conspiracy, perhaps as newt said earlier, rico violations, false statements, perjury under oath, destruction of federal documents, people will start believing it's time to save thems

john podesta -- i tell you what, if he worked for me i would fire him so fast. he is such a nasty guy. i would fire him. like "the apprentice," john, you're fired. >> and trump is reminding people here in wisconsin and a handful of other states they can change their vote if they cast and earlier absentee ballot, but it is an option rarely used by voters. john and christine. >> jim acosta in wisconsin. this morning the trump campaign is denouncing a show of support from the official newspaper of the ku klux klan. want to show you the front page of "the crusader" that borrows a trump campaign slogan, make america great again. and it says the way to achieve that greatness is become a white christian. it released a statement saying this publication is repulsive and views do not represent the tens of millions of americans uniting behind our campaign. remember, earlier in the primary donald trump himself was slow to denounce or repudiate david duke, former grand wizard, in an interview with jay tapper after the fact that donald trump did denounce them and the kkk. >>

john podesta told supporters to head home. he says several states are too close to call. here are his remarks. >> . >> still counting votes. every vote should count. we're not going to have anything more to say tonight. it's been a long night. >> here's where things stand right now. electoral map from abc news shows donald trump at 244. still out there right now. pennsylvania 20 electoral votes there. donald trump has 76,000-vote lead with 98% precincts reporting. michigan is closer right now. 16 electoral votes there. trump with 55 56,000 vote lead. trump is leading in wisconsin. minnesota will probably go to hillary clinton. not a professional on this but a lot of people made bad predictions. i'll stay out of that business, thank you. also close tonight, new hampshire, four electoral votes there. alaska has been called by some of the organizations, three electoral votes there to go into the trump stack as well as 11 electoral votes from arizona. count the votes tonight. still some precincts in pennsylvania and michigan to get counted up. >> tracy our assistant news dire

you heard john podesta say let's find out what happens in the morning. it is incredibly discouraging for a campaign if anything was known for a superior ground game. and had all of the money in the world to air ads, to hire, hire staffers in any state that they and john, this has been the central question tonight. did hillary clinton underperform? did donald trump overperform, what about in wisconsin there? >> this is interesting. so what noon see was talking about. milwaukee county on the eastern side of wisconsin. hillary clinton got 236,000 total votes that have been totaled right now. barack obama got about 100,000 more. in milwaukee county. you could say, one conclusion, well she dent turnut then in dane county, another democratic county she got the identical number of votes barack obama did. did she not turn them out in milwaukee? or is there absentee, some votes that are, is that what is the hold up that there, because, if she was able to do it in dane, being off by 100,000 in milwaukee. >> huge number. >> a little surprising. that may be one of t

the clinton campaign chairman john podesta. documents show the clinton campaign tried to handle the scandal over her use of a private e-mail server. peter burns has the details from washington. reporter: new e-mails offered up some interesting comments on hillary clinton's use of private e-mail on march 2nd and 3rd last year john podesta and cheryl mills were e-mailing each other on another matter. we have to dump e-mails. didn't you just got your new nickname. on the substance, what does that mean? the campaign official told fox news two days before "the new york times" broke a story about clinton's use of private e-mail, her team is discussing releasing all of them and dumping refers to that, not in not too destroying them. it is a bit curious because the next day they subpoenaed the times story. back to you in new york. lauren: iraqi troops enter muscle for the first time in two years taking the special forces with islamic state militants u.s. military puts the number of fighters 2500 mark. i believe to be on the outskirts.

you see john podesta saying we'll have to dump these sooner rather than later. the campaign says john podesta was talking about dumping as in getting out, releasing to congress and the public. the problem is two-fold. march 4 the subpoena is issued. then at the ends of the month after the subpoena is issued, they erase 33,000 of them not just erase them, but bleachbit the server and they try to erase them forever. of those, how many are work related? we don't know. how many deal with the clinton foundation? we don't know. so that adds to the mystery of what is on anthony weiner's laptop with hem *'s emails. kennedy: when you read this, you have to assume on some level this influences comey's ongoing investigation into the server issue. but you think about the emails on that laptop and perhaps those emails bleach bitten exist in the 650,000. do you see the wikileaks investigation influencing the ongoing f.b.i. investigation? the wikileaks dump? >> maybe. i don't think the f.b.i. is that concerned about what's coming out in wikileaks. kennedy: do you think they ha

john podesta, the spokesman for the new investigation is john podesta's bff and said she got him out of jail. why are they resisting an avalanche of evidence. >> you are seeing the fbi's revenge. >> you mean the agents? >> the rank and file who worked so hard on this case, this is their revennage, and the timing is not a mistake. in the united states if you don't have a fair department of justice and fbi, which are only interested in enforcing the rule of law and finding the truth, then you have nothing. nothing else matters. all of this conversation that we've been having about the classified e-mails and the classified materials is important. that ultimately is the shiny object distracting everybody. the mother lode is the clinton foundation investigation which we just confirmed today. >> follow the money. >> look at the iranian one deal. he gave money and got other people to give millions of dollars, and then they needed hillary to sign off on allowing the merger that allowed putin to have access to 20% of your uranium. >> the bigger point the american people need to know before tu

coming to you live john podesta is taking to the podium. he was asked by a reporter when he was leaving the hotel as he is speaking right now, that he was asked if hillary clinton was on her way over and he said no. we'll listen for a quick second. he says that it has been a long night. a long campaign. now we can go a little bit longer so it appears that hillary clinton is not quite ready yet to give a concession speech and also not clear if donald trump will get a victory speech. let's keep this mind that they are not over and that hillary clinton could win their popular vote, but donald trump will get the necessary electoral college votes where the race is still too close to call as hillary clinton's campaign chairman continues to speak. i'm joel waldman for fox news. >> and joel waldman you mentioned that john podesta is speaking right now. let's listen to what he is saying. >> we are so proud of you. and we are so proud of her. she has done an amazing job as she is not done yet. so thank you for being with her. she has always been with

but the ones that hacked hillary clinton's and john podesta's emails was the dumb agency. lou: right now the dumb people are the people in the national liberal media who have been buying this clap trap spiewfd by this administration and the clinton cartel for years. and there is a day of reckoning at hands. >> i think your analogy to watergate comes close to home with one exception. we have not yet had a saturday night massacre. this is how james comey who has botched this thing beyond imagination by limiting the investigation on the national security front, by holding the july press conference one thing after another. here is how he can recover. he should go to the president and say in effect, back me or sack me. in other words, let me f.b.i. agents conduct the investigation of the clinton foundation, let them reopen the investigation of the national security aspects, and leave them alone. if you don't trust me to be in charge of that investigation after what you said about me today, then fire me right now. lou: i would tender a koirnlts proposal if i may. that is that he

who we heard from was her campaign chair, john podesta. he came out essentially and told supporters they were still counting votes, every vote counted, and to go home. here's more of what he said. >> i want you to know, i want across the country supporting hillary to know that your voices and your enthusiasm means so much to her and to tim and to all of us. >> reporter: so she was actually not at the javits center, she was at a nearby hotel watching the results come in. but we expect the campaign officials to tell us later today the election night headquarters really told the story. people crying more than once. all the long, sad faces that much earlier in the night were jubilent and turned much different pretty quickly. here's the reaction at a trump rally in midtown, manhattan. >> ladies and gentlemen, the vice president-elect, mr. mike pence! okay, we'll get that package later on. we had our feet all over the area on this election night. angie goff is h we want to share everything that came in. our own team of reporters here with both t

john podesta is hillary's campaign chairman. one of his good friends, are you serious, is overseeing this latest e-mail investigation? my god, why is he even on the case? trish, they live according to different rules. and we are sick of it. trish: can you see even among the e-mails her staffers trying to clean up the mess after her. >> they know. trish: mena camden, one of her people made the comment to john podesta, sometimes bill and hillary clinton have the worst judgment. is this the case? i would argue this is bad judgment to be running the foundation and allow this murkiness to exist! >> first of all, it's the fbi that's overseeing the e-mail case right now, of huma abedin's e-mails and they've had them for weeks. so the fact that ed henry and everyone at fox can plow through thousands of wikileaks and the fbi can't get through huma abedin's e-mails before the election, pretty unbelievable. number one. that's a fact. they have hillary clinton's e-mails, they have huma's e-mails. >> hillary clinton should theoretically shou

john, you are fired. >> john podesta insists when he used the word dump he meant to give those documents over to investigators. trumping a none of that, saying i meant dump in the trash. bill: many pointed out he's not taking the bait whether it's the war upon women, that appearance yesterday in florida. trump seems to be stick on policy when it comes to obamacare, et cetera. >> he has shown an extraordinary amount of discipline the last week focusing on the f.b.i. and the email investigation, not taking the bait, and starting every rally with policies, specifically obamacare. we are open enrollment now. the astronomical deductibles are crazy. donald trump vowed to repeal and replace obamacare, even upping the ante on how he will do it. >> i will ask congress to convene a special session so we can repeal and replace. and it will be such an honor for me, for you, and for everybody in this country. because obamacare has to be replaced. if we don't repeal and replace obamacare, we'll destroy american healthcare forever. reporter: here in miami, then this afternoon in orlando. tomorrow morni

she tips off the clinton campaign and she tips off john podesta about the plans. this is what we're doing and podesta wrote back, we're pushing back on the story, the campaign is not in meltdown mode, it's not true. donna brazile wrote back, i pushed back hard on this on cnn and david axelrod. he's been a democrat operative and then podesta sending back for the tip-off. we have real estate billionaire suggests an investigation. >> this is more nan just a liberal slant to a he had to are -- this is more than a liberal slant to editorial process. wouldn't this be a matter that the fcc should be regulating or investigating? because this undermines our democracy to a degree and by the way, i'm a democrat. liz: you know, dare i say, that this is on the level of what the new york times had to 0 deal with with jason blair fabricating stories, janet cook fabricating stories at "the washington post." i'm not saying that cnn fabricated anything. i'm talking about credibility. they need an outside ethics panel, some entity to probe cnn and why aren't they doing that? are the

clinton didn't publicly address the trump win last night-- instead-- her campaign chairman "john podesta" announced her campaign would have nothing to say about the race.. only adding that clinton was quote-- not done yet. (walter) of course, florida played a huge role in trump's historic win. russell joins us in the newsroom with a look at how things played out in the sunshine state. (russell) trump had to have florida, and he got it... he of course did well in rural parts of the state, but also along the i-4 corridor and tampa bay... let's take a look... -one of trump's keys to winning was pinellas county .... he beat hillary clinton by pasco county by a wider margin than mitt romney did four years ago... -overall in tampa bay, trump won 150-thousand more votes than romney did four years ago. -exit polls showed a large number of voters wanted change. making trump's win even more remarkable in florida is how hillary outspent him by tens of millions of dollars and had seemingly better organization here. thanks russell.. we'll have much more election coverage in just a moment.. but first

in fact, in one e-mail john podesta said this about kadzik, fantastic lawyer, kept me out of jail.

[laughter] >> absolutely. at least it raises strong questions as to, you know, how this investigation's going to go on this new case that's been reopened. so, you know, it causes real question marks and concerns. when they say they're going to do this quickly, i've talked to buddies that used to be at doj, they think this could be stretching on for quite some time. so when they say it's going to be quickly roadway solved, i think it's -- quickly resolved, i think it's impossible. i would hope there'd be more pressure so we could think we could have a fair and objective investigation -- trish: but you think this is, like, years in the making? >> i think it's months and months. trish: in other words, it's not going to get resolved by next tuesday. >> no, absolutely not. trish: julie, you know, a lot of people said all of this was bake

staur stuart this is more bias in our competitor cnbc, john howard asking john podesta what questions he should ask jeb bush . ashley: cnbc asking the chairman of hillary clinton's campaign what he should ask jeb bush in an interview coming up. stuart: let me explain to viewers, john harwood is the chief political call at cnbc, cnbc is our direct competitor, we are on fbn and that's cnbc and this report e john harwood -- ashley: we've washington correspondent. debating strategy. stuart: debating strategy. chair of the clinton campaign. liz: saying advising the clinton campaign, watch out for dr. ben carson and also making statements along the lines of hillary clinton, i thought she did well on the campaign trail. things like that. stuart: so far cnbc have not acknowledged what their own john harwood has been doing. they have not mentioned on air. to this point, as far as i know, no comment coming forward. stuart: more on the story of the media -- i keep using that expression, working with and for the clinton campaign and -- >> one thing you outsourced, podesta can be a good source for

>> all i was pointing out is that if you give the hillary clinton campaign and john podesta the benefit of the doubt and say "dump" meant dump, get out, sooner rather than later, a couple of things. what actually happened? they turned over what they wanted to turn over and then at the end of that month, of march 2015, they destroyed e-mails with bleach bit. did they classify clinton foundation e-mails dealing with the clinton foundation and secretary of state as work-related? we don't know because they destroyed that server. the other thing is, if you give them the benefit of doubt and "dump" means putting out, they would have been giving out classified information because we know that there were classified e-mails on her unsecured private server. so you can say what they wanted to do, what they were talking about in these e-mails behind the scenes but you also have to note what practically happened and they did destroy some 33,000 e-mails. >> still to be discovered. >> bret, the inconsistencies are amazing, because on one hand they say they meant release but then on the other hand they
