He is an intelligent man. He is a smart politician. One day he says lets shut down the government and defend obama care and then he goes to a town hall and panders like there is no tomorrow. That is what this is. When republicans return to recess, they will a book available for Light Reading and its called impeachable offenses the case for removing barack obama from office.

And cruz, having heard earlier today from Hillary Clinton. Aipac, as the group is known, is routinely mentioned among the most powerful lobbying groups in this country, raising and giving away millions of dollars per year, and wielding a lot of influence, a lot of it focused on the u. S. Israeli issue. As we said, they heard this morning from Hillary Rodham clinton, who in a pointed speech, painted donald trump as unreliable. We need steady hands. Not a president who says hes neutral on monday, proisrael on tuesday, and who knows what on wednesday, because everythings negotiable. Well, my friends, israels security is nonnegotiable. We cant be neutral. When rockets rain down on residential neighborhoods, when civilians are stabbed in the street, when suicide bombers target the innocent, some things arent negotiable. And anyone who doesnt that, has no business being our president. The former secretary of state came out four square against donald trump. Here his motorcade arrives at lunch

Leventhal joins us live from the courthouse in pennsylvania. Rick, did the jury set a record there . Reporter yeah, its believed to be the longest jury deliberation in the history of the Montgomery County courthouse. It lasted longer than the trial itself, but those 53plus hours of questions and debate and consideration did not result in a verdict. They couldnt agree on the guilt or innocence of bill cosby on any of the three charges that were lodged against him. And bill cosby, were told, did not celebrate in the courtroom when the mistrial was announced, possibly because this is not over for the comedian who turns 80 next month.

President s remarks. I want to share a little bit of the gaggle notes. The president is in the building. Hes not begun his speech yet. Very interesting.

He said he works as hard as any president ever has. As you pointed out, hes here in nashville expected to address this overflow crowd of the American Farm bureau in just a moment. Hes going to be talking about the importance of the new tax law and how it will benefit americas families and in particular, ame
