the city of hoboken. he s also putting his reputation on the line. he s putting his law license on the line if he s caught in a lie. then the federal grand jury is going to look at this, assuming that he does indeed testify to them and say, okay, who should we believe here. what about the piece of it, chairman, about the potentially complying with any subpoenas from your committee. is joe mar zeaty, is anything to do with hoboken anything you want to pursue at all? is he somebody you would want the hear from at all? i think what the committee is going to be looking at is the port authority. we have to go back to where this committee started, looking at how the port authority operates and how dysfunctional it is. we ve seen a connection with the port authority with this in that the port authority funded the redevelopment study that impacted on the development that the mayor said she talked to kim
and no energy company invests more in the u.s. than bp. when we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. that s not a coincidence. it s one more part of our commitment to america. suddenly you re a mouthbreather. well, put on a breathe right strip and instantly open your nose up to 38% more than cold medicines alone. so you can breathe and sleep. shut your mouth and sleep right. breathe right. in just a few minutes we ll have some new reporting about one of the latest fade rale subpoenas in chris christie s administration threatened sandy aid over the development project in the city of hoboken. but we re going to start this
focused on the george washington bridge lane closures. but doherty s a key figure in the other christie administration scandal. it s the one involving allegations by the mayor of hoboken, dawn zimmer. allegations that two top officials from the administration suggested to her that her city s level of sandy recovery funding was contingent on her approval of a large development project in her city, a development project represented by the law firm of one of christie s closest confidants, samson. there s an active federal investigation into zimmer s allegations that s under way and much of the mastro report, a report issued by the law firm that conducted the internal investigation for christie, much of that report is devoted to bluntly challenging dawn zimmer s story. here s how mastro, himself, characterized zimmer last week. we find that mayor zimmer s allegations that members of the christie administration delivered a message from the governor to her threatening
again, this exhaustive report shows nothing on who was to blame and why they did it. and, again, the governor has promised to do a thorough investigation. i don t believe that, you know, this investigation is over. it s far from over. there is no there are no answers to the questions. we will continue to raise the questions. and the investigation is far from over. the report was done obviously to try to exonerate the governor and not get the facts. darryl, i used the example of a lion tamer with a chair and a whip. he basically pushed the press away from him today. but the lawyers do it too. how do they think they can get away with just dismissing the mayor of hoboken, mayor zimmer, who comes off as very impressive, on television, which is the only way i know her. oh, she was yawning. this can t be real. she can t really have been intimidated by the lieutenant governor, in a situation where she was the only other witness besides the lieutenant governor. just knocking down the cases
contacted that day, i wanted to get back to the reporters as with quickly as possible and some of them just called me on the phone. yeah, i was there and remember talking with each of them but i didn t remember any conversation between the two of them. i went back days later and realized the graphty of the situation and i watched the video. i said, you know, i do recognize that i did hear their conversation. so why didn t you come forward, realizing the gravity of the situation, why didn t you come forward? hey, i said something that s inaccurate? well, i did tell the investigato investigators. i at any time want to come forward after it was in the paper and undermine the mayor of hoboken. again, dawn stzimmer does an outstanding job as mayor, she is a fellow democrat like i am. why would i want to undercut her publicly? so the report you have no problem with the tone of this report takes and the conclusion that it reaches that based on your account, your sole account, you can
