violate the agreement but much more likely is beyond the confines of the agreement, hezbollah does something terrible. the war in syria ramps up. iran shows it is a bad actor and then people say how could we have removed the sanctions and given them all of this money to do bad stuff? so, yes, everyone has a reason to hedge their bet. phyllis bennis and james traub, thank you for joining me. i appreciate it. thank you. up next a historian will join us to put this story in presidential history. toid arthritis like me. and you re talking to a rheumatologist about a biologic this is humira. this is humira helping to relieve my pain and protect my joints from further damage. this is humira helping me reach for more. doctors have been prescribing humira for more than 10 years. humira works for many adults. it targets and helps to block a specific source of inflammation that contrubutes to ra symptoms. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, s
good evening, lawrence. rachel i believe you just expanded the staff of the rachel maddow show by millions and millions of people. oh if there were just millions and millions. at least dozens and dozens. thanks rachel. this morning, president obama credited president john kennedy with the principle that has guided the obama administration s approach to iran. he quoted jfk s inaugural address saying let us never negotiate out of fear but let us never fear to negotiate. a landmark deal setting off a global debate. a comprehensive, long-term deal with iran that will prevent it from obtaining a nuclear weapon. we are the first administration to actually stop their program. this is an important step. what a stunning historic mistake. making comments way over the top. the next battle for israel is the battle on capitol hill. i welcome a robust debate in congress if in fact it s a fair deal as i think it is at this moment we ll do everything we can to stop it.
global debate. a comprehensive, long-term deal with iran that will prevent it from obtaining a nuclear weapon. we are the first administration to actually stop their program. this is an important step. what a stunning, historic mistake. making comments way over the top. the next battle for israel is the battle on capitol hill. i welcome a robust debate in congress if, in fact, it s a fair deal as i think it is at this moment, we ll do everything we can to stop it. the iranians have prevailed in this negotiation. this is the most dangerous, irresponsible deal. the most dangerous irresponsible thing is iran with a nuclear weapon. what the critics of this plan never offered was a realistic alternative. simply no deal means a greater chance of more war in the middle east. i don t understand the president. the iranian people have a new future with america, new prospect and new era. let s give it a chance and see if it works. that s the deal. the i

doesn t freeze. it actually tastes better. welcome, it is a big news day. we have major developments in the unfolding situation in ukraine. the u.s. and russia both threatening dueling sanctions and we want to take you back to the lingering mystery surrounding flight 370. 11 days after its disappearance, prospects are not looking good. at the time the u.s. navy announced it is scaling back its role in the search. navy planes will stay in the sky but the uss kidd is being pulled back to regular duties. families in the u.s. are holding out hope. i know he s strong, strong guy and smart guy. and he can survive things. he can survive he can survive things. he can survive this. he is surviving this. u.s. is not alone in puming back resources. india and thailand have done that partly because of the cost of the search. look at the last similar search, $40.5 million, that is the cost of just six days of hunting for the downed air france flight that famously was lost in 2009
