whether she s a public figure or not has to be settled from here to court. before i show i want to start tonight by getting this behind showing what breitbart put out on his website from the beginning, the way he characterized what she said and what part of her speech he actually showed and how he said it was said in time. very important facts that will be very important in this case. let me go to ken vogel of ç politico. your sense of where this takes this whole thing as a big issue in this country. this horrible story about how a woman was slimed basically here by a website. then of course, all the fox, et cetera embellished it. where is this going now? it definitely raises serious questions that are going to continue to be debated over the administration s reaction. sort of hypersensitivity to racial issues and whether obama s advancing the conversation of race and also about journalism and what is journalism today. what responsibility do folks who are sort of this new breed
free-for-all. there is a great clip where one of our experts say potatoes are guarded better rather than the highly enriched uranium used in nuclear weapons.ç let s talk about iran. that hasn t happened yet, thank god. let s go to iran. it s my sense, people have told me that mullahs or the secular people want a nuclear weapon to bolster the prestige of people in that region. no matter what happens to the politics, it seems we re facing a real challenge of having a country like that with a nuclear arsenal eventually. indeed. i don t think there was any question that iran is seeking a nuclear weapon. the question then becomes if they get it, then you begin an arms race in that entire region. and it just continues to build, which is why countdown to zero not only talks about the horrors of nuclear weapons either
amounts of environmental damage. these rigs are not supposed to eople died.are not supposed to that s a real tragedy, but the fact is, we re not seeing the kind of environmental damage that and if people are depressed it may be because people are making such a big deal about this environmental damage. i made a big deal about it and may continue to because i fear for it. i haven t hyped it for any reason. i have worried about the damage to our environment too, especially north america is the only one we ve got, this land mass and these waterways. and i have worried about it and this is the first positive report i ve gotten. that s why i have been concerned, not because i want to hype this baby because there s nothing to hype about it. it s been a tragedy from day one. bernard charbonnet, thanks for joining us. michael, thank you. i guess congratulations if you turn out to be right. if you re right, that s great news. up next, the scenario that keeps the country s intelligence commun
taxes on rental income from a vacation home. he has one down in the islands somewhere and hasn t been paying the taxes on the income from that. put this up against, is this the kind of thing that would cause an expulsion? is this up this in traficant country or something like that, or ozzy meyers where he was in abscam? would this be at that level. that s a great question. i honestly don t know. i think that the fact that he s ways and means chairman and hasn t aid tax is pretty devastating. the disclosure stuff, that is a federal offense. you have to file those things correctly. i m not a lawyer. but and the court of public opinion, this could be very devastating because i think it speaks to the arrogance of power. the rent subsidized apartment, misusing that drives people bonkers, especially up in new york. once again it, speaks to the arrogance of power. are the democrats in trouble on this?
this reminds me very much of what happened in 1994 with dan rostenkowski. he fought it and fought it and all of a sudden, it was really a problem for him in the election and a problem for the democrats. i think the same thing is going to happen this fall. you know, i like charlie rangel, too. i think he s well liked by all of his colleagues. he has served the country very well. but chris, we ve seen the story before where people who serve a long time in congress get a sense of entitlement and feel they can do anything they want. the rules change and they don t keep up with the rules and get caught. i think that s what happened with charlie rangel. really a sad case. we ll see if that s all true. listen to nancy pelosi, the speaker. i am going to comment on what we did do to drain the swamp because let me describe the swamp. the swamp was described in the press as a criminal syndicate operating out of the republican leader s office. and what we did when we came in was to implement t
