patty hearst has been taken into custody. the fbi says patty hearst was picked up today in san francisco. the hearst newspaper heiress has been missing for 19 months. >> by the time patty is finally apprehended, it's almost anticlimactic. patty's famous line when she's taken to the courthouse and asked her occupation, she replies, urban guerilla. >> miss hearst was drawn into a group of young people who saw themselves as political idealists. their story seems to say something about the futility of terrorism as a shortcut for persuasion. but somehow the message doesn't seem to be reaching the weather underground or northern ireland or the middle east. >> good evening. for the second time in a month, arab terrorists have staged a bloody attack inside israel. >> it happened in a small settlement called ma'oalt, five miles from the border of lebanon. it began when the terrorists seized the high school. >> in the aftermath of the munich olympic attack, governments finally realized that terrorism was both evolving and becoming wors

call hane in washington so patty as we're hearing that is cyber espionage and stealing trade secrets tell us more about the charges that have been made by u.s. authorities. well if you just listen to what rod rosenstein just said there the deputy attorney general that is a huge swath of industry in the united states and he said in eleven other countries including the united states so what's going to happen now to these two individuals will likely nothing it may affect their travel plans in the future but it seems highly unlikely that especially since the u.s. government says these individuals work for the chinese government that the chinese government would simply hand them over extradite them to the u.s. to face trial so as long as they stay out of a country that has a. treaty with the united states probably not going to have much actual concrete impact as for the companies it was interesting in the government the u.s. government wouldn't say exactly which companies were affected how how impacted they were what was taken they said that they didn't want to do further damage to the co

thank you so much, patti. i appreciate your time tonight. >> sure, thank you. >>> another developing story this hour and this is pretty stunning. this has been happening under the radar. wait until you hear this. major allegations of voter fraud is rocking a congressional race in north carolina. the allegations in fact are so serious that the state election board is not certifying the results. there are questions about whether there will be a whole new election called all together. with all of this fear about hacking and voter fraud, this is what it could look like. we're talking about the ninth district in north carolina outside of charlotte. republican mark gar rhys leading democrat dan mccready by 900 votes. drew, you've been investigating this and obviously this could be ground zero for what so many americans have feared. what are the allegations? >> reporter: this has everything to do with absentee ballots in this county and a small group of individuals all connected to each other, all of whom had petty c

there's the point where we say, remember patty i stayed until 4:00 a.m. to hold two wires together while you went to radio shack to get a longer wire. does that not count for something? >> sure it does. >> but you're firing me -- sending me off to better opportunities, not firing me. what about the time i held the wires together. >> because now the wires are soldered. you were the best wire holder we ever had. nobody ever touched you in the holding of wires. now i want to ask you really, do you want to continue to hold two wires together for the rest of your life. >> no. >> no, you do not. you were good at that. now that you built this machine that operates, how do you leverage that. >> you just fired me and i feel so good about it. >>> you may have noticed we got a new studio over the course of 2019, so we'll be bouncing back and forth between the new one and the old one as we look at our favorite interviews throughout if year. up next, a fellow that made our best of before, brad garlg house, the long-time silicon valley exec joined ripple and made himse

and patty wrote a number of books, but there's one i want to draw your attention to. it's called -- i'm very bad at -- bananas? >> "yes, we have no bananas." >> "yes, we have no bananas." that title is interesting because it referred to the outdoor relief riots in belfast in the early 1930s where catholic and protestant workers came together. and they had to find a common anthem. and that became very, very difficult. but to overcome their sectarianism they chose the title, "yes, we have no bananas." and so that's the background from which anne springs. anne herself besides being a civil rights activist is much better known as someone who is -- has written fiction, and who personifies the part of narrative when we begin to look at civil rights. so i'll ask anne to speak first. [ applause ] >> thank you. thank you. not to be repetitious, but thank you so much for the invitation and all jared's hard work in getting us here. so thank you. i'm going to begin by saying that -- too high. all right. thank you. i'm going to begin by saying what my general -- i'm going to give

to talk through this hi patty what more can you tell us at this point just reports isn't. sorry about that i'm checking twitter because this story is developing and we're seeing very mixed narratives coming out so the reason i'm on twitter is president donald trump took to his favorite medium to basically say the we have defeated i says isis in syria the only reason for being there during the trump presidency seeming to confirm these reports first report in the wall street journal then picked up by the washington post reuters news agency the basically the u.s. was going to pull out all of its two thousand troops out of syria starting immediately but now we're starting to get some pushback the pentagon basically is putting out a pretty brief statement saying nothing has changed we're continuing to work with our partners and then this tweet from the u.s. embassy in syria basically saying the coalition mission in northeast syria remains unchanged we're going to continue to man our observation posts the mission to defeat isis remains the the lasting defeat of isis remains our

so i think all the great names on the list, i see him as someone right at the top right now. >> patti solis doyle. i wonder if that is an indicator that the focus for this president, perhaps by necessity, in the second half of his term, is going to be on defense, like this, rather than, again, there are other handicaps in the way. one being the democrats now control congress. makes it more difficult to push through legislation. in your view, is that going to be the driving force in these last two years? >> i think so, jim. this is a very, very difficult terrain for the president right now. he's already been implicated in crimes from the southern district of new york. we have the mueller probe that is ongoing, but all signs seem to point to coming near its end with a probably very difficult report for the president. we've got a, you know, democratic-led house in congress with all sorts of subpoena power. and more importantly, though, a much more better hand to play in terms of legislating. he's going to have a lot of difficult fights with congress. and we have a president with a very,

as well of course the united states so let's speak to patty call hane who is following the story for us from washington and patty was speaking there about challenges of spin of stealing trade secrets tell us more about what happened in washington today well we got word late the press conference is going to happen at the justice department and you usually know it's a fairly big deal when you see who's going to be on the panel it was a deputy attorney general the f.b.i. director the chief prosecutor from new york and they did unseal these indictments keep in mind they've been working on this case for a while the indictments have been filed they've been under seal but today they unveiled it they used some pretty tough language. at the justice department sweeping allegations against two chinese nationals accused of widespread hacking the victims included companies in banking and finance telecommunications and computer consumer electronics medical equipment packaging manufacturing consulting healthcare biotechnology automotive oil and gas exploration and mining the government says the hac

patty, good to have you with us this everything. what similarities do you see? >> it's a dirty business, martha, when the prosecutors with the unchecked power and no oversight can go after any politician they want. those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. look at what they did to my husband ten years ago to see what they are doing to president trump now. the same prosecutors, the same political assassins as i call them, are taking legal fundraising contributions and turning them in to something that is, you know, trying to stay are crimes. non-existent crimes. the prosecutor in our case told the jury that asking for campaign contribution was the same thing as a dirty cop offering to tear up a ticket in exchange for a bribe. >> so your argument -- everybody remembers the main comment from your husband where he said i've got the senate seat and it is golden. he talked about being able to trade then senator barack obamas open seat which as governor he had the opportunity to fill. that it was great currency for him as a politician. that got a ton

senator alexander, he and patty murray have had a series of hearings to set up ways, one of the challenges? diagnosis of problems in our system? next year, we will get into prescriptions. there are republican proposals, senator senators. senator bennett and i believe if we take seriously what we have heard over the last year, what we have heard from people, we want more options and lower ists, we have the plan that most likely to gather support. maybe not immediately, but if we really get into problem-solving mold, we feel good about this. .> read between the lines he says it is politically significant because it held on existing law rather than deter the tear down-- approach offered by bernie sanders. you worry how out there democrats are getting? >> i am not actually worried. i read the dems are deeply divided on health care. between dems is like this. the difference between the dems and the republicans is like that. republicans are still attempting to repeal the affordable care act. democrats want to preserve the affordable care act. expand health to care coverage. are they different id

well we can now speak to patty call her and she is following the story from washington and in the last few minutes we've been hearing from. joe's lawyer who says that is that the charges against her not clear. you know this whole case has been very sickly shrouded in mystery don't forget she was arrested on saturday in vancouver she was switching planes we believe she was headed to mexico when she was picked up by canadian authorities and we knew really nothing about her case no one in the u.s. was talking about what she would get it was potentially going to be charged with well she had a bell here and basically trying to find out if she could be free until she faces a further criminal proceedings and so some of the information came out and basically what the u.s. government is going to allege is that her company while way was directly tied to another company called sky com and sky com was taking us made tech to technological goods and selling them secretly to iran in violation of a rainy and sanctions i can tell you news of the arrest world the financial markets and that continues wit

senator alexander and patty murray did a whole series of hearings. what are the challenges, what is the diagnosis of problems in the system? next year we get into prescriptions and there are other prescriptions to senator sanders's proposal. we really believe if we take seriously what we heard, and what we heard from people, we once more options and lower costs. and most likely to gather support and get into problem-solving mode we forget about this proposal. >> medicare x, and rather than tear down approach being offered by senator bernie sanders, listening to the 2020 conversation, are you worried about how out there we are getting on healthcare and other issues? >> not actually worried and but me debunk something i sometimes read, that the dems are deeply divided on healthcare. the difference is like this. the difference between the dems and the republicans is like that. republicans are still attempting to repeal the affordable care act either by vote or administration sabotage. democrats want to preserve the affordable care act, we voted to prote

to be on the ground of this a little later in the next few hours here another there for the moment patty in washington thank you well earlier there is diplomatic editor james bays asked israel's ambassador to the u.n. what he thought about the u.s. withdrawal there are reports that president trump is planning to pull the u.s. troops out of syria when you were assessment is that the threat from i saw in syria finished and are you concerned about israel's security if those troops leave syria . u.s. decision and respect any decision made by the administration we have our concerns about syria about the presence of a venue and troops in syria and we will do what every with every to protect our people regardless if you have american troops russian troops or any other nations to continue to follow a policy of not allowing the iranians to build their bases next to our borders sort of featured in syria in israel's estimation wonderful shall we we can tell that they i think has been defeated and you can argue whether it's completed or not but overall we can agree with the international community t

chinese intelligence agency known as the ministry of state security well let's get more on this now from patty culhane in washington and of course crucially patsy the these individuals have been linked with the chinese government tell us more about who has been indicted. well these are two chinese nationals i think it's important to point out they are we believe still in china and unlikely going to be arrested or extradited to the united states but this is more the justice department and allies in western capitals basically trying to send a message to china that there will be repercussions so we don't really know the extent or exactly who they targeted the only government agencies that were identified were nasa the department of energy and the u.s. navy they say that about one hundred thousand u.s. sailors had their personal information taken by these hackers and as for the which companies they basically the justice department is saying we're not going to name them but we're working with them to shore up their security so the way they explain this is that these hackers they allege were able to

commander in chief says the troops are coming home they're coming help ok interesting developments patty callahan in washington via thank you let's go to james by the united nations does that surprise that patty was talking about james extend to where you were surprised by everyone and certainly from u.s. allies there is surprise some confusion and also dismay at this certainly the u.k. defense secretary has said that i still has not in his estimation yet been defeated i've also been speaking to the head of the security council committee that is the person for the international body the u.n. that actually tracks eisel and he's the kazakh. omar off he told me no eisel has not yet been defeated in syria it's all me going operation and he stands by his latest report on this in which he says he believes there are between twenty and thirty thousand fighters from leisel in iraq and syria a number of the us is close allies that will be affected by this is israel i caught up with the israeli ambassador. there are reports that president trump is planning to pull all the u.s. troops out of syria i

member defense secretary is stepping down after growing increasingly disillusioned with trump's almost pattis resigned after trump decided to withdraw u.s. troops i'm sitting. there watching t.v. news from berlin all coming at the top of the hour and don't forget you can get all the latest news and information around the clock on our website that's dot com or call us on twitter and giving it thanks watched. like we were. when we were. eighty percent of americans in some plane and i was really experienced hardship. listening.

i went to him and his counterpart on the democratic said, senator patty murray of washington, roy blount of missouri and we put forward a team pushing forward medical research. it's been amazing success, it's been bipartisan and enthusiastic effort all around. we couldn't have done it without lamar's parnticipation. he's committed to medical research. a 5% increase for the last four years in budget and appropriations for the national institutes of health. that's going to end up creating more opportunities to spare people suffering and to cure disease and to save lives, than we can possibly imagine. that's the kind of thing that people expect of us, don't they, here in the senate? that democrats and republicans will find a common goal and work together to achieve it? lamar alexander was part of that successful effort. i'm going to hold him to it for the next two years and i'm sure he'll hold me to the same goals and work with him, but certainly with pain in my heart as the democratic leader said that his career is coming to an end. he's been an extraordinary public servant as a governor,

it with cnn political commentator, steve cortez, and a former campaign manager for hillary clinton, patty. patty, you said you were excited by the wide range of democrats, but will the democrats go to the broader edge they have or will the party force them to go to the old guard? >> i don't really have a favorite right now. i think me, i am like most democrats, really excited to kick the tires of all of these potential candidates. we have, you know, former mayors, senators, former governors, businessmen, you know, angelina jolie may run. i think there's a lot to choose from. what i would like to see, i would like to see a woman get the nomination, or if not the nomination be on the ticket. women were pivotal in the midterms last year, not only as candidates but as voters. they are leading a movement politically, culturally and socially, and i think it would be smart on behalf of the democrats to put a woman on the ticket. >> there are a number of options, steve, and somebody joked the other day on this program, every senator, every democratic senator may be running. when you look at it wh
