Were going on the premise we dont know if they left the state or the area. We take it serious search in this area as we did in the hillsborough, vermont or anywhere else. Until we have them in custody, were not going discount any of it. As the governor said they could have had a pretty good lead on us but we cant confirm whether they took advantage of that or not. That was new york governor giving an update on the prison break in new york. We will continue to follow the manhunt. Were also following jeb bushs overseas tour totally unrelated. With bumps in the 2016 strategy making for a turbulent campaign bush is going after president obama for his strategy in iraq. Right now the president is meeting with ash carter at the white house. Their meeting comes hours after an announcement that the u. S. Will send an additional 450 military personnel to iraq to train an advise iraqi forces. Asked today in berlin about reports of the added forces, bush moved randly through at least stages of political response from hesitation to kneejerk criticism, to reluctant accord. I have believed that the efforts to date havent been strategic. We dont have a strategy. This may be the beginning of a strategy. This is welcome news if this is a commitment from a Strategic Point of view to take out isis. Bushs lackluster performance on his foreign foray reinforced a general precampaign fizzle. Politics professor writes everyone can see that jeb bush is doing poorly so far. Hes in a much worse position than his father was in 1987 or his brother was in 1999. This bush intimidates no one. Joining me now visiting professor at nyu and msnbc political analyst harold ford, junior. Steve and lawrence odonnell. Gentleman, lawrence odonnell. Thank you. Youre not going to separate it here . Three shall we say. How is the Jeb Bush Campaign not really Campaign Campaign going . It is fascinating watching. When he has to answer a question extemporaneous extemporaneously. You see if the debates were held today, he would be beaten by every other candidate on the stage. It is amazing to me harrold ford junior. Professor. Professor harold ford jr. He hasnt figured the out the iraq answer the one behind him, which is his brothers war, and the one in front which is what we do next. Theres no doubt he would lose to a variety of candidates as lawrence aptly said. I think a lot of republicans and some democrats are surprised the most basic questions, the most over questions from immigration to the war to other issues that wrangled Republican Base he seems to be uncomfortable. Almost as if surprised the question might have been asked. I think people view him as a smart, capable, confident guy. Thus far those characteristics havent come through in any clear and convincing way. And the choice to go overseas and to be so uncomfortable answering Foreign Policy questions, to say nothing of reconciling yourself with the bush legacy by the way matters a lot in europe. People still think of george w. Bush as not a great president. Its very tangible. What does that speak to his campaign which has seen a shake up in staffing . No one showing him the polling and studies what Republican Voters think of him. I spend a lot of time traveling to primary states and jeb bush has become sort of the take a break check your phone, go to the bathroom speaker for convince convincecon convention conventions. Hes the least exciting. Ive seen it in south carolina. Lindsey graham will get people irritated. Jeb theyre indifferent about. Hes not inevitable. Youre seeing a out of poll today he lost ground to marco rubio there. From 15 point lead in march to six points now, i think this is unfath mble for a lot of people who looked at mario rubio, too young, inexperienced, financial problems the same sort of youre going to hammer on Barack Obamas inexperience. Marco rubio has the same problem and is from florida. That poll i think, is the collapse of jeb bush more than the rise of marco rubio. Marco rubio is just the alternative name toonce you decide im not for bush. What about john cay sick . He hired john weaver and fred davis who is famous for his demon sheep ad but seen as a good ad maker. He could be an establishment alternative if you dont like jeb bush. Nobody has talked about him thus far, as he said in New Hampshire on thursday i thought jeb was going to suck all the air out of the room and it hasnt happened. I served with john in the house. I believed for a long time his resume his person would be something that would attract a lot of republicans. Hes, no doubt, going to benefit. I agree with lawrences analysis of the rubio piece. Hes won twice in ohio. Obviously a critical state. He won in a lot of democratic places. He got beat up early on by the unions for something he attempted to do. He may be the only one to retreat, learn, and move forward. On paper he looks good. Jeb looks good on paper, also. If john gets out and face the hard pitching that gets at you and get hit one or two times, well see how he reacts. He benefits from governors trips. I think he resembles bush from 2000. No republican nominee can go to the base and say they made comprises, want to spend more on education, medicaid and john does that. Its been a long time really. Its been since 2004 since republicans got through an election that was the message they got through. And the country is not more right wing no. If anything, he probably has a stronger argument than jeb because he moderated on policies people live under. Weve seen him in the National Spotlight before. He did meet the press and the big time stuff. Jeb was a mystery. I had never seen him in public speaking before he became a president ial candidate. I was accepting the notion this is the real this is the smart one, as they say. And i was waiting, okay, is he going to say anything half smart . Well, listen i will say i was impressed hes gotten up to rooms full of conservatives and said i believe in a path to citizenship. He wont back down from the common core stuff. On certain issues he has been the, i mean, and people will argue hes not actually truly a moderate in some senses. Hes taken a more palatable path for the national campaign. But if youre going to defy the base of the party in any way you have to yeah. You have to hold it with something. The wild factor for governor jeb bush might be i can win. Lawrence has seen the campaigns go upanddown. Is he taking the hits now and getting any better . I think part of the concern among a lot of republicans they dont see him getting better. They see the hits coming but they dont see it. How do you take three attempts to answer a question about iraq . A question you should have known was going to be asked. I have no doubt he might have misheard. How does it take you two after that . Those are the kinds of things i think republicans and democrats are watching closely as they watch this. I think the gop race needs at least one more candidate. There are ten announced and five more to come. The New Hampshire gop or 50 New Hampshire gop lawmakers, i should say, are protesting fox news and it is sort of floated debate rule about meeting a certain percentage in five National Polls to make it to the stage. Theyre suggesting that you divide the debate into two different debates. No one has said bleachers yet. I think thats the most viable option. Or maybe a human pyramid. Thats nothing. I mean, thats not everybody there. I see disaster looming, dave what do you see . They have not figured out the trump problem. There is no trump problem. Hes not a candidate. Hes never going to be a candidate. If hes not a candidate, no problem. Thats right. Or the ben carson problem. That, too. But see people in the early states if you talk to iowa and New Hampshire they would prefer it is based on who is polling strongly. Carson is polling stronger than kaish. Theres no way to bring in carly without bringing the people they think embarrassed the party. Priebus committed early on to making the circus. Theres no way too get the face of the party they want. Bobby jindal whatever you think of him now was promoted years ago as somebody they can propose hes not going make it in. You cant have 20 people on a stage. Is anybody talking seriously about carly being the nominee, lawrence . If you need voters someone over there just keeled over. We heard the sound. Iowa voters met her and like her. They take her seriously. Theyre the people who count 100 times more than everybody else does. The party wants her. They want her on the stage. Targeting hillary the whole time hes on the stage. And they want ben carson for similar reasons. Theyre going to have to give up the ghost on that. Theres no way you can have your cake and eat it, too. They may try. I think the chairman of the party is trying as hard as he can to avoid the repeats of the last two election cycles. The cast of characters and the volume i think, will make it impossible to do. This tells me the rnc has no sway. The fact that a thousand people are running for president in the year. They were like this is the year we focus on the winners. I would ask David Lawrence and you does it maybe not bode well for jeb if the characters get out there and seem to be lacking seriousness, thoughtfulness, ability to appeal to the people in the middle is poor performance and poor speakers. Does he emerge in stronger terms because of this . Not the way hes playing now. No. He has to get better still. Hes the main stream candidate. If you look at polling hes weaker than rand paul in most of the polls ive seen. Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, all the swing state polls the message rand paul has been able to sell through the press, frankly, goes better than jeb. Jeb does hoshrribly. John may help because he takes votes from scott walker. I dont know if thats true. They want to believe that the votes will come from scott walker and not from i hear you. So far its been less wow and a lot more whoa right . See how i did that . Thats why. Thank you as always lawrence dave, and harold. Thank you.

Bienvenidos welcome to the south pole if youre dora the explorer, you explore. Its what you do. What took you so long . If you want to save fifteen percent or more on Car Insurance you switch to geico. Its what you do. You did it, yay want to survive a crazy busy day . Start with a positive attitude and positively radiant skin. Aveeno® positively radiant moisturizer. With active naturals® soy. To help reduce the look of brown spots in just four weeks. And another positively brilliant idea. Aveeno® skin brightening scrub to clean and gently exfoliate. Aveeno® naturally beautiful results®. Just hours ago the lawyer for former mckinney, texas Police Officer casebolt video shows him forcefully handcuff, and drug his gun on a group of black teens. After his first call was a suicide at the apartment complex where an africanamerican male had shot himself in the head at a pool side in the apartment complex. The male had done so in the presence of his family. Immediately thereafter he responded to a second suicide call. Erics compassion during these two incidents are a testament to his character that all the officers who work for the Mckinney Police department. Alongside this explanation case bolts attorney pushed back on allegations that race played a factor. Erics actions at the neighborhood were only an attempt to investigate the reports of violent assault. He was not targeting minorities. Casebolt resigned longer and no longer a department employee. Hell reportedly keep his pension benefits. No decision has been made on criminal charges. Joining us now is Columbia University professor. Lawrence just lets start first with the context this afternoon the suicide calls. What does that tell you . Well, look ive been studying these cases since the 1980s. In every case when there is a public explanation at some point, they begin with what the officer was doing before. They do it for good and bad reasons. One of the bad reasons, theyre trying to create a sympathy that will color the way you look at the decisions the Police Officer then makes at the shooting scene or whatever the situation is. Okay. Here is the problem with this particular version of it. Suicide calls tragically are routine police work. I mean, its a job i wouldnt want to have. But it is a routine part of it. When you say i had a couple of suicide calls then i had to respond to a kids pool party and i was in no emotional condition to respond to the pool party. I say i understand. Thats why you shouldnt be a Police Officer. Because this is all part of it. It would be like your Airline Pilot saying we have horrible turbulence over the rookies, when we came in for the landing i hasnt gotten over it yet. Sorry. Here is another big problem with that. The lawyer was asked the question and didnt answer. Of the other dozen or the other 11 Police Officers who responded to the scene how many had already responded to both or one of those suicide cases . Exactly. And they behaved well. You know in the department that small it was at least one, two, or more of those officers on the scene. Very likely had been at those suicide calls, also. Ja mel, the protestations that race was not a factor here. The lawyer went out of her way to say that Eric Casebolt also detained a white woman. Your thoughts on that . I kind of see it as a bit irrelevant. It doesnt erase the fact that the young africanamerican woman was detained in a very aggressive way. She was thrown to the ground, hand handcuffed. He put his knee on her back. If the white teen was arrested much more calmly more reasonably or detained more reasonably it isnt much of a defense at all. It makes it look even worse. The selectivity apparent on at least the video tape where some of the video shot was shot by white teens. They werent stopped from taking video. Black teens were. The folks hes yelling, targeting are black teens. Right. Black teens. I want to add to what was said. The argument you hear on the cases it is not the character of the officer. Its out of character. What we know is these incidents are situational. It is about that particular interaction and that situation. People can act all sorts of ways. In this situation, he acted with racial bias. He acted over aggressively and he might argue he acted in terms of sexual violent in terms of sexual assault. I dont care about his character. I care about what he did to those kids in that particular situation. He needs to be held accountable for that. I guess, lawrence is the resignation with pension and benefits enough in this . Do you think it ends there . Its not up to me. I want to say one thing. One thing with the press conference got right was that the lawyer said he wants to apologize. She used the word apologize. That is a rare thing. I mean, if you want to go to the archives here. Lets find the last time the Police Officers, representative of the Police Officers said anything with the word apology in it. People will start picking apart the apology because it was a little bit phrased it was phrased off center and said i apologize to anyone who was offended. It was like wait a minute. Then the lawyer was asked what is he apologizeing for . But they did have that moment. In the history of these things it is an incredibly rare moment. She used the word regret on his part. He took a step forward in the right direction. But there are more steps to take. When we talk about where these sort of where incidents of Police Brutality or Excessive Force happen and we look at sort of racial injustice, mckinney is supposed to be different, right . Money magazine named it the number one best place to live in america. It is seen as sort of middle class and racially balanced or not balanced but racially diversish. The question i feel like we should be asking is how integrated are the communities. Time and time again were told well it is 50 50 white black or 70 30 but theres still color lines. I mean, the White Community there is informal segregation by class. Right. If you look at a lot of communities and mckinney is one of them. Youll find that sort of segregation that is often, you know, obviously its not mandated but it is done by custom, income. Just a couple of years ago with the city actually settled a section 8 housing case of discrimination case where by one area of the city didnt want to put section 8 housing within its orders and the area was predominantly white. In a lot of these places in mckinney, in ferguson certainly in baltimore there is a stark racial segregation that encourages or facilitates a certain kind of policing that focuses intently with a lot of resources on the lowincome africanamericans well and not just the policing but if this started in a way we have been lead to believe, that there was a sort of racialized exchange about kids going back to section 8 housing. Thats all you need to know as far as how much the community is tolerant of difference. What is interesting about that comment and what ive been trying to explore in writing and thinking about it, it very much puts this incident not just in the context of Police Misconduct and Police Violence but much broader context of pools of swimming of segregation of pools and municipal communities. In this case a Community Pool in a private suburb that was that almost certainly wouldnt exist 50 years ago and only exists because our municipal pools are largely closed due to integration in the 1960s. And there is a great piece on this. The New York Times theres another oped on your reporting. Theres a strange intimacy in re schism and water exposes the inevitability of theit. The idea we have not reconciled the black body and the white body in a shared space. It is incredible. Jamelle writes wonderfully about this. Im from chicago the site of the famous 1919 race riot started because supposedly black swimmers crossed the invisible racial line at the beach. This is a public beach black swimmers crossed the racial line and whites responded and rioting took place in my hometown for many days. People are killed and injured. That was a hundred years ago. Theres a long history of the intimatecy of water and whether it is a pool or a beach of causing certain kinds of racial confrontations. It gives us a window into the National Psyche when it comes to the subject of race. We have to leave it there. Thank you for your time. You can, of course catch the last word weekdays at 10 00 p. M.

Homer and marge simpson, that is will legally separate in the shows upcoming 27th season. And the husband of actress zoe saldana takes her last name. Is it the beginning of something . First, Jerry Seinfeld and the debate over pc culture. A week ago the comedian made headlines saying the comedians are avoiding College Campuses because kids are too pc. He returned to the topic with seth meyers to discuss audience reaction about texting and friendship. The people in your life theyre so important arent they . Yes. Really. They dont seem very important. Not the way you scroll through your names in your contact list like a gay french king. Turns out that in todays pc world, seinfeld has gotten a reception that has been chillier than expected. Comedy is where you can find feel like an opinion. And they thought what do you mean gay . What are you talking about gay . What do you do . What do you mean . Theres a creepy pc thing out there that bothers me. Is seinfeld right . Is there a creepy pc thing out there or has the king of comedy fallen behind the times . Joining me now is annie lowery. Annie, what do you make of this . So, you know, i think that the pc culture owes a lot to social media. All of a sudden people in this case, college kids with say, you know i was a young gay person and i had to hear jokes like this and it is not cool. You can get a social media spieling on effect. I get that sometime it is goes too far. I get timesometimes it can be humorless. It is a good thing that people have been marginalized and discriminated against can come forward and say my experience is not unique. It happens to at lot of people. I think its been a better thing. I expect a good conversation about sexism about racism about bias against gay and transgender and lesbian people. I roll my eyes at Jerry Seinfeld. Hes a billionaire. I dont feel sorry for him if people dont laugh hard enough at him. Times are changing. You look at progress on Something Like gay marriage. If you like that that is because people see gay people differently and not so ready repackaged as the butt of joekes. How about write smart funny jokes. That dont insult. I think it is cheap and easy to be insult people who are socially marginalized. I think of jokes and i think of richard crier, Dave Chappell who found the humor in making fun of these social categories of i think seinfeld would argue that hes in the spirit of richard crier, for example, hes crossing that threshold between what society thinks is acceptable and funny. No one wants to think they are stopped being relevant. I dont think Jerry Seinfeld is a great spokesman for that mind set. I think the College Professor and the opinion page takeouts they feel marginalized by their students. Theyre saying something the students find offensive. Thats a different issue. Theres no downside. There is no social pressure backlash for Jerry Seinfeld here. He has all of his cars the huge fleet of cars and hes not which College Campus was booking it . Dont want to have to deal with the pc police. All right. Then lose on money because youre afraid to be criticized because you cant come up with funny jokes that insult people. There was a backlash the tosh. 0 that caused a backlash the bill cosby thing. He got in material that people wanted to hear because it was taboo. It was previously taboo. There is no downside. The fact were talking about this is great. If Jerry Seinfeld is banished from society ill feel differently. I think he has made 820 million in his career. The man in exile will be comfortable. Simpsons fans everywhere are reacting with shock and horror to the news today that homer and marge will legally separate when the show returns for a 27th season this september. The shows executive producer that homer has narc leprosy. Homer falls in love with his pharmacist who is voiced by lena dunham. It makes me sad but i very much look forward to homer and marge getting back together again. Hopefully well have a but if he falls do you think it is a good plot device to keep the story line fresh . Well, after 27 seasons, you know, youre probably at the bottom of the barrel in terms of the plot. I would be very sad if homer and marge were permanently separated. Somehow i dont believe it is going to happen. Can i say people on the internet simpson fans are angry about this. I love it. People are horrified on the heels of our last conversation about the times are changing. Here is entertainment trying to keep up with, you know an increasingly, you know landscape that is fact use, if were talking about marriage. Here is the fact about marriage. The average marriage in this country lasts eight years. Marge and homer have been married before the show started. It was three times the national average. Why not legally separate. Maybe theyll become polly amorous or something. Who knows. Jerry seinfeld will have fun with this joke. 27 seasons is that too long for any Television Show . They know how to troll twitter and interact with the show. What they have done on twitter is kryptonite for the most objectionon onniveon objective parts of twitter. Some of us didnt know it was on the air. Im not naming names. Actress zoe saldana is revealing her husband took her surname. It comes as a number of american women keeping their maiden names is actually declining from 23 in the 1990s to just 10 in 2013. Annie lowery your last name is lowery. I know, for a fact it is not your husbands name. Nor i have taken my husbands name. What do you think of this news . I think it is actually really, really sweet. I think i remember when jayz and beyonce got married. Legally hes sean carterknowles. I thought it was nice. I think it is hard for couples that think of themselves as inequitable partnership and want to carry both names forward to figure out how to do it. Whatever decision you make i think people are ready to criticize. I think it strikes me as lovely. Thats interesting you say that having not taken your husbands name. The when women see our names as temporary or not really ours. When we understand that part of being a woman is assuming your own identity into your husbands that impacts our perception of ourselves and our role in the world. Listen alex cass, i mean alex wagner. If i could find a wife i would be more than happy to take her name or hyphenate. Do you think more men would start hyphenating . I hope so. I think we should be willing to hyphenate hyphenate. If not, why not take your wifes or partners name . I think it is an awesome thing. I dont know why zoe is upset. Are you serious . Youre going to be made fun of. Youre going to be emasculated by your friends, dave. I think for a lot of women, you know if their husbands had offered to take their names. Theres a sweetness to annies point. A generosity of spirit in that but the is that are your friends going to give you a hard time . Then you should get different friends. People should not be Jerry Seinfelds about this. Anything you can do to break the norms and be respectful to your partner, i dont have a problem with that. Good for him. Did you, annie, talk to ezra lowery about this . Was it on the table . Unfortunately clowory is a mouthful. Im going to bring it up with him. As long as you have something you can tweet. Can it be news. It can be news. Dorian, dave annie, thank you for your time. Be sure to catch nerding out thursdays at 11 00 a. M.

Supreme court steps in, most abortion clinics in the state of texas will close at the end of this month. That is because yesterday a federal Appellate Court upheld some of the strictest abortion laws in the country. The decision puts about half of the states remaining abortion clinics at risk of closing. Something that would leave 1. 3 million women of reproductive age in texas 100 miles or more from the nearest clinic. The decision is expected to take effect in about 22 days. Joining me now is the president of planned Parenthood Federation of america sis seal richards. It is distressing. The reason the clinics may have to close is because theyre not up to standard as the state of texas would like to establish. Why are these standards bogus in the eyes of a lot of folks . Its a good question. What the legislature did under the guides of helping women was pass the incredible restrictions on who can provide abortion services. Not only what kinds of facilities, essentially small hospitals, but what kinds of doctors. It is limiting. Now the laws are taking affect it means good medical providers closing down. We could be in the state where there are more than 5 million women of reproductive age and only nine or ten clinics open. In 2012 there were 41 clinics open. If the law goes into effect ten clinics. One of the things the court evaluated is undo burden on women who need to have an abortion to ask them drive incredible distances. What i found, like stagger in that is the court, at one point said for one clinic closing in, i think, el paso some women will have to drive 1200 miles roundtrip to get to an abortion clinic. Thats the distance longer than d. C. To boston new york city to raleigh, north carolina. These are huge distances to cover. What does that mean for women . Well, it means a lot of women wont be get access to safe and legal abortion. What they seem to imply is women can cross the border to new mexico. It means that women will cross the border to mexico. It is ironic you think of the roero Roro Roe V Wade case. It is disturbing. I think you look at the case in georgia where a woman has been jailed supposed to be let out today. Stayed in jail today for the same kind of problem. Women will be resorting unsafe means, and there is absolutely no reason for it. It is all about politics. None is about the safety and health of women. What is mind boggling the state of texas is arguing we need the restrictions in place because it will keep the procedure state. But at the same time the state is arguing that women in certain parts of texas can drive to new mexico where, by the way, the clinics are not subject to the same requirements. Effectively saying it doesnt matter if they get abortions at quote, unquote unsafe clinics in new mexico. Absolutely no. Theres so much hypocrisy in the legislation and now were seeing the impact. Obviously the goal of the state legislature and governor rick perry was to end safe legal abortion in the state of texas. I think thats what they thought would happen. If there is any Silver Lining there isnt. There have been folks come out of the wood work supporting planned parenthood and other organizations. We were able to open a new planned Parent Health center that meets the restrictions. There are millions of women who are unduly burdened by this law, and it is absolutely were going beginning to see the results of it in texas and across the country. So, i mean, as you said this is happening across the country. What is the likelihood the Supreme Court takes this up . Well, i know they have asked for a stay and on this texas case. In order to go to the Supreme Court, and i think the likelihood is the Supreme Court will hear this case and it is going to be incredibly important that the justices of the Supreme Court recognize what a burden women face not only in texas but across the country. Because if you are asking a woman to drive hundreds of miles to get an abortion thats limiting the number of women who can take work off, who have access to transportation. I mean, this law disproportionately seen targeting poor women. It targets women with the least access to health care. I think one of the cruel ironies is that women in the rio grande border unof the most underserved areas of the state of texas. Many of the women are undocumented. They cannot drive to san antonio. They cannot drive to houston or austin because they cant pass through the border check points. Were forcing women to go across the border to mexico to get what is a legal procedure in the state of texas or should be a legal procedure in the state of texas. Can you believe in the year 2015 weve come so far on other parts of our society and culture. We have rewound the clock to a period were talking about back alley abortions all over again. Absolutely. The incredible thing is the country supports safe and legal abortion. And abortions are down across the u. S. Thats right. Were doing a better job of providing birth control. Theres so much good news in terms of womens health. The fact that states and state legislatures and politicians would be getting between women and their doctors and ability to get a safe and legal abortion is an outrage. Texas, i mean, youre from the state. What did you say . Listen, it is a cautionary tale for the politicians running for president and in legislatures across the state across the country what can happen when you pass these kinds of laws. It is terrifying and sad what is happening to the women of texas. Good to see you. Thank you for taking the time.
