This 103rd behind Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg Pete Buttigieg. Anything can and will likely change. So much is going on. In case you think that the markets are waiting to see what comes out of the states, a funny way of showing it. We had records today for the nasdaq, a record today for the s p 500. All that in the hills of some promising Corporate News that no doubt the president will be crowing about when it comes to this date later tonight to sort of steal some of that thunder. He will be in manchester. He is in medford where he and Pete Buttigieg are battling out for that top spot. Joe biden is nowhere near it. Whats going on . We have been following the Pete Buttigieg campaign, and its clear that he has momentum here. He has been pulling in the same size crowd as frontrunner Bernie Sanders. Audible polls show that mayor pete is a close second behind sanders. Hes been attacking him for ticket money for millionaires. Hes taken donations from anyone who wants to beat President T
Guilty. Not guilty of aiding the enemy, the most serious charge against him. And one that carried with it a possible life sentence. That wont happen. But a military judge did rule today Bradley Manning is guilty of espionage, and computer fraud, and theft, all in connection with the largest leak of classified information in american history. Remember, prosecutors called Bradley Manning a traitor with evil intent was he handed over hundreds of thousands of secret government files to wikileaks and sees himself as a whistleblower. The prosecution cited a conviction from the civil war days. The defense denied that Bradley Manning aided the enemy. Arguing theres no evidence at all that he knew al qaeda militants ever even looked at wikileaks, and today it appears the judge agreed.

If wall street was worried about any of this and that we could have a long summer of investigation and hearings, ala what we had in 1973, they had a funny way of showing it. Stocks up north of 31 points. A lot of cross currents here. We go into the legal back and forth on this. You heard a great deal over the last couple hours pretty much on everything about this. Well try to step back here and get the what is next stage. Blake burman at the white house with that part of it. Blake . Hi, neil.

Analysis this hour. The testimony during a hearing on a law which authorizes surveillance of foreign agents and sweeps up americans communications. Have there been any instances involving a deliberate or intentional compliance violation . Youll hear from our own judge Andrew Napolitano on that and why he says americans are spied on more than anybody anywhere else ever. Lets get to it. He demanded loyalty. He demanded loyalty and we simply looked at each other in silence. A line from the prepared remarks of the now former fbi director james comey. Hes scheduled to Tell Congress tomorrow that during a private dinner at the white house, the president said i need loyalty. I expect loyalty. Comey will testify i didnt move, speak or change my facial expression in any way during the awkward silence that followed.
