i've asked the retired u.s. army him and his administration. even chicago's top cop is taking general dana pittard to stay. heat for snubbing the president a quick question with you. by not attending his speech of course, you are the initial today at the international u.s. commander on the ground fighting isis in iraq in 2014. police chief association conference. here is the president a short we've heard a couple things while ago, calling out the there. i thought a headline, general, might be that we are in fact city's top cop. going to have troops on the >> here's the man that could not bother to show up for a meeting ground inside syria to protect of police chiefs, the most oilfields, and one reporter respected people in the country, said, "will be to be denial of in his hometown. access by russian and syrian and with the president of the united states. forces?" you know why? thoughts? >> yeah, i thought that was that's because he's not doing interesting. his job. once again, i applaud the i want eddie johnson to change his values and change them fast. professionalism and courage of our u.s. special ops, our >> in a statement, intelligence agencies, or foreign service officers, and superintendent johnson explained in part why he did not attend all those who had something to do with this raid. the speech. in keeping a footprint in syria, "as police officers, our job is to be the voice for the voiceless, ambassadors for the communities we serve. at least for the near term, it's a good idea. i can't in good conscience stand by while racial insults and whether it is defending the oilfields were not, but also we understand superintendent

it'll help overall instability. that is one thing we rode in our johnson is expected to speak at 1:30 p.m. local today. book, "hunting the caliphate." for long-term stability it'll as a result of the take some time. superintendent did not attending this beach day, the virtual leaving too early has its consequences. order of police took a vote of no confidence egg and the top we saw that in 2011, when troops were sent out of iraq probably cop. the way too early. president they tweeted out a that helped in the creation of short while ago saying the isis as far as allowing isis and president brought his buffoonery certain sunni provinces to to town, and rather than belittle chicago's germinate. >> harris: one last quick communities with hateful and question for you. what is your impression today, dishonest rhetoric, he needs to just in terms of how much go back to d.c. and face his information we are getting as a feet. the president today also talked to mike touching public? >> i thought that was a good news conference overall. on chicago be an international i thought the information was basement. >> harris: focusing on law-enforcement even more, a big good. i think overall that there are night, sometimes emotionally some things that are missing. gripping come on fox news last night. one is the relationship with the as i hosted town hall in america police emergency, with a live syrian kurds. studio audience. the intelligence on the ground can't be beaten. with rank and file past and

present and their families. high-profile officers, talking about the shootings that have brought tensions to a boiling point. one of my guests, a new york lawmaker who was introduced a bill making it a felony to dow'r attack them. watch. >> we are having politicians pass a broad brush. instead of isolating few instances, the wish to denounce police as a whole. do you mean i'd dehumanize the leased property. instead of organizing their part of the community. mothers and fathers, niece and nephews, sons and daughters. they are involved in the community, and serve and protect their communities. >> harris: a very broad and tough conversation at times. thank you to everybody made that evening so special and so thought-provoking. it is certainly a dialogue that we have here on "outnumbered overtime" and will continue to have here going forward. joe biden going after

president trump and a wide-ranging "60 minutes" interview interview. is this what the campaign needs after lackluster third quarter fund-raising? >> president trump says russian interference is a hoax. >> he's an idiot. everybody knows this. everybody knows it. nobody. but and because it's a ninja foodi, it can do even more, like transform into an air fryer. the ninja foodi grill, the grill that sears, sizzles, and air fry crisps.

$34 million in the bank. senator warren has 26 million. how do you compete again -- against it? >> i just flat beat them. >> harris: the power panel today. good to see you. the democrat, i will come to you first. joe biden wants to earn it without president obama. okay. but he can't turn it without cash. >> it's interesting because he does have less cash on hand and i think a lot of democrats are concerned about it. one of the things they wanted him to do setting aside the fund-raising is to go tougher after president trump. i think a lot of democrats wish he would've been quicker out of the gate when president trump started raising the ukraine issue. >> harris: why doesn't he? >> it's a good question. i don't know. maybe he didn't want to try to take on trump at that level or he was going to try to stay above it. i don't know what the answer is but the fact is he's now up to his rhetoric.

i do think in some of the poles we have seen, joe biden still has a pretty good lead in many of them. in others, he has slipped a little bit the lack of fund-raising hasn't necessarily translated to a fall in the polls. he is still up there. >> harris: a lot of the presidential candidates have kind of made their bread-and-butter, if you will, bernie sanders among them. we're not going to take big money donors. we are going to do it with the people. he raised 25.3 million in the last quarter, so the people are working it out. how does joe biden campaign against that? >> joe biden has got a lot of problems. he says he's the front runner. the problem is he's not leading in iowa and new hampshire. warren is. he's having fund-raising problems. he said to break his super pac pledge with is a no-no with a progressive grassroots. it's not been a good campaign for joe biden. in the "60 minutes" interview, he came across as confused. barack obama told joe biden you can sit this one out if you have two of what america has learned is what barack obama has already

known. joe biden is not running for prime time. he is showing it. if you think that gaffe prone and confuses the way to take down donald trump, donald trump is going to be reelected. >> harris: democratic congresswoman katie hill has announced she will step down among allegations of an inappropriate relationship with a staffer. she denies it. it was hill's estranged husband who first made the accusation. here's what she now is saying. watch. >> i made this decision so that my supporters, my family, my staff and our community will no longer be subjected to the pain inflicted by my abusive husband and the brutality of hateful political operatives. but i will not allow myself to be a distraction from the constitutional crisis we are faced within the critical work. >> harris: the "los angeles times" running an opinion piece think it's a double standard and that congressmen have been getting away with dalliances with staffers forever. we have covered some of it.

quickly, marie. >> the "los angeles times" is right. there is a double standard and what katie has been that there is horrific, having intimate photos leaked online is illegal and a horrible violation of her privacy. i wish she hadn't resigned but it was a really tough position for her to be in. >> unlike congressional democrats, i believe in due process. if katie hill think she should fight it, it's great. i hope that the rules going forward are equal for gender and sexuality and that's what we should be focused on. >> harris: great panel. we had a lot of breaking news this hour. i appreciate you being with me. thank you so very much for watching "outnumbered overtime." in moments we have "the daily briefing" with dana. keep watching. >> dana: the world's most wanted terrorist dead. former head of the islamic state killing himself among the daring u.s. less rate and the pentagon calling it a destabilizing blow to the terror group. hello, everyone. i am dana perino and this is

"the daily briefing." >> it will certainly send a message to those who would question america's resolve and provide a warning to terrorists who think they can hide. it is very easy to get drawn into continued conflict if our objectives are not clear. acting as a police force-out to solve every dispute is not our mission. our mission in syria today
