she was captivated by the npr mission which of course many people are and they can name every house. john wasn't like that appeared she understood the value and power of media for a free democracy. but what i didn't know until i started researching this book, she gave a gift that was 10 times larger to the salvation army, also posthumously do was to build recreation centers in poor neighborhoods all around the country. she built one before she died in san diego at the cost of $80 million. it was so beautiful and so transformative that that is where she left the lion share of her fortune when she died. the salvation army was inadequate to do this. this very difficult because they were in the business of building world-class recreation centers. but they prayed and decided to accept the money. >> by the time they cashed out, it was close to $2 billion. >> that is an amazing sound even by today's standards. >> if you had to sum up the way you feel about her having spent so much time studying her, talking to families, what would you say your biggest impression is that was about her quest

statement he made yesterday to npr. let me play a little bit more of what the president had to say about this. >> i think there is no doubt that when any foreign government tries to impact the integrity of our elections that we need to take action, and we will at a time and place of our own choosing. some of it may be explicit and publicized, some of it may not be, but mr. putin is well aware of my feelings about this because i spoke to him directly about it. >> what are the options here? one obvious, some sort of economic sanctions. nbc news learned that the intelligence community believes that vladimir putin controls entities that have about $85 billion in assets, not just putin but other members he could go after but any executive action that he might take could be reversed by donald trump, although, that might be politically fraud and then the possibility of some sort of retaliation which is in cyberspace but it wasn't just the president who was escalating josh earnest behind the podium in the briefing room saying trump obviously knew this was going on before the election, there was
