joining me. i know it is a tough day for a lot of folks, especially those on the front lines fighting for a more equitable society. thanks for taking the time to talk about attorney general biden. i know that you guys worked together in 2011 and in 2012 on dealing with the fallout from the sub prime mortgage crisis and trying to hold some institutions responsible. tell me a little bit about that work and what it was like to engage with him on a really difficult topic just a few years ago. well it was he was an amazing colleague. i decided i wasn t going to go along with a deal that pretty much all the other a.g.s and other federal agents wanted to close with the banks that contributed to the crash of the housing market and i thought it was not a good deal and i was going to hold out for something better, and the one guy who called me up out of the blue was beau biden and i didn t know
what happened to the economy was a manmade disaster, not a natural disaster. and whether you re in the tea party, a 99 percenter, or anywhere in between, which is most of america, you re mad as heck because there s been no accountability. coming up we ll discuss beau biden s legacy with one of his partners in the fight for justice, new york attorney general eric schneiderman. lets sweat pass through and evaporate so skin stays comfortable, while clinically proven protection stays on. new cooldry sport. neutrogena. ugh! heartburn! no one burns on my watch! try alka-seltzer heartburn reliefchews. they work fast and don t taste chalky. mmm.amazing. i have heartburn. alka-seltzer heartburn reliefchews. enjoy the relief. you are looking at two airplane fuel gauges. can you spot the difference? no? you can t see that? alright, let s take a look. the one on the right just used 1% less fuel than the one on the left. now, to an airline a 1% difference could save enough fuel to power
to understand that this guy was someone who would do the right thing. no matter what the consequences were and no matter who he had to take on. i tell you, i was a brand-new attorney general getting into a fight with all the other attorneys general and the federal government, without his help and his guidance and his perseverance and total commitment to the project, i m not sure he would have gotten it all done. he was just a warrior for the people. his passing is a great loss for our democracy. he was not your partner in crime, but of course your partner in justice, new york attorney general eric schneiderman, thanks for your time. thank you, alex. that s all for now. the ed show is coming up next. good evening, americans, and welcome to the ed show. live from new york. let s get to work. tonight, senate showdown. rand paul is credited by both sides of this issue for gumming up the words. over government surveillance
campaign on. but possible libertarian principles would be. i don t know what rand paul runs on other than rand paul. the nebulous rand paul cloud. every time we give him a platform, he says something ridiculous, like people are hoping america is attacked by terrorists. so even the rand paul cloud is not going to do it for him. he s just not that charming it turns out. we will be talking much more about the 2016 field. just when you thought it was safe to enter the republican race for president, dick cheney is back. we will discuss his latest party popping plans. plus, tracy morgan speaks for the first time about the car crash that nearly took his life one year ago. and later, america loses a great public servant. we ll look back on the life of beau biden. that s next on now.
you wouldn t order szechuan without checking the spice level. it really opens the passages. waiter. water. so why would you invest without checking brokercheck? check your broker with brokercheck. a quest for accountability in america s mortgage mess brought together attorneys general beau biden of delaware and eric schneiderman of new york, who declared in a joint op-ed in 2011 the american people deserve a full investigation and public exposure of the conduct that got us into the economic quagmire we face today. we must ensure that it never happens again, and we must restore public confidence that ours is a nation committed to the goal of equal justice for all. for more on his work with the late beau biden, i m joined by new york attorney general eric schneiderman. attorney general, thanks for
