The fbi from signing on to an interagency statement blaming russia for recent political hacking. Comey reportedly felt it was too close to the election. A second source later confirmed that same story to the huffington post. Now, this all comes as comey faces growing backlash for his decision three days ago to announce the bureau had discovered a new trove of emails belonging to top clinton aide huma abedin discovered during an investigation of abedins estranged husband, anthony weiner, for allegedly sending elicit texting to an underage girl. We still have no idea whats in those new emails and we have no idea if they have anything to do with the original investigation of potential classified information on Hillary Clintons private email server. The fbi has now began to review abedins emails but it remains unclear if they are finished before election day. What we do know about the emails and the decisions to make them public 11 days before the election has come largely by leaked to the
Armed and believed to be dangerous. We dont want anybody to approach him if they see him. If they do, just call 9 lep. Jean casarez is following the story. Officers are going door to door. They believe finding eyewitnesses will be difficult at this point but this is nine hours ago almost that this happened. So he could be anywhere. They say they need to find him. They are calling him a suspect, that he has Vital Information they need to talk to him about. But of course, who is saying if he is even in iowa at this point because interstates are so close. We want to tell everybody exactly what happened. A little after 1 00 this morning, in urbandale, a Small Community outside des moines, a small department, 50 officers, but they hear shots have been fired so officers rush to the scene and find one of their own sitting in their patrol car and he had been shot and he was deceased. They then get an all points bulletin for officers in the area to be on the lookout for someone who shot one of
It is pronounced boehner. That word, however, does not look like it would be pronounced boehner. And before he was super famous in politics, before he was speaker of the house, even his own republican colleagues sometimes would screw up and say his name the way it looks rather than the way it is supposed to be said. The gentleman from florida is recognized. I yield two minutes to the gentleman from ohio, mr. Boner. The gentleman from ohio is recognized for two minutes, without objection. Mr. Speaker, today by our votes and our words, we will send a message. The gentleman from there ohio, mr. Boner. And boehner gives this long pause at the beginning. In my mind, hes standing there saying should i correct this guy, tell him thats not how you say my name . But he doesnt. I dont think john boehner has been particularly oversensitive to peep getting his last name right or wrong. Because of that, because he hasnt made a big deal of it, over time i think it became a mark of immature tee, a ma
Taxachusetts. Good evening, im chris hayes. Technically, election day is still 15 days away, november 8th, two weeks from tomorrow. But for some places, election day is already here.

Today, early voting kicked off in a number of other states, including three crucial battlegrounds, colorado, and florida. Texas and alaska, the president ial race got a lot closer prompting the Associated Press of taking the unheard of step to the lean column. Barring some massive unforeseen disruption in the very near future, Hillary Clinton is currently beating donald trump by between five and eight points in the National Polling average. Slightly smaller than president obamas average over john mccain at this point in 2008, and much bigger than his tiny edge over mitt romney in 2012. According to the latest battleground states, between states th
Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes. We are now just 51 days from donald trump becoming president of the United States and more and more people appear to be confronting the very real possibility that trump will use the full force and power of the Us Government to benefit his sprawling business interests and enrich himself and his family. Today a largely unknown apparently pretty plucky little government office, the office of government ethics, which is charged with preventing conflicts of interest in the executive branch took to twitter to congratulate trump for addressing the issue. Unleashing a very trumpian ninetweet tweet storm that included, quote, real donald trump oge is delighted that youve decided to difbest your businesses. Right decision, exclamation point. Bravo, only way to resolve these conflicts of interest is to divest. Good call. We told your counsel wed sing your praises if you divested, we meant it. That was not hack. We made sure.
