the victim, who was seen with her children, said she wiped blood on herself and her two kids. mir rack rasly they were able to lay completely still, playing dead for four and a half hours, until help arrived. imagine doing that with a toddler. right now the investigation continues with help from u.s. agencies, and twitter and social media played a role in all of it. joining me to talk more about that, nbc terrorism expert, evan kohlmann. it s good to see you. so we know that terrorists have been using things like twitter to get out information, to brag about their exploits, even as a recruiting tool, but how widespread is it? look, we re in the opening phases of it. these groups used to have their own private communication channels, password protected, separate, for al qaeda members or shabaab members exclusively. but these various different private channels started coming under attack by hackers, by government agencies, et cetera. also these guys started thinking about it and realiz
ordering up male hookers during downtime at the federal reserve? it s preposterous. perhaps we need a sexual dui test developed to tell us what is likely to happen when middle-age ed libido meets a whf of power. the trouble with carlos danger and his ilk is they re not just a danger to themselves but a danger to everyone else. one look at the humiliated face of the elegant huma abedin, spear carrier for hillary clinton s women s empowerment message, will tell us that. the fact is you just begin to wonder, what is it with these guys? they cannot keep it zipped up. it is really extraordinary. you have to say we haven t had one scandal really involving a woman in power where they re doing these kinds of things. it s really incredible. part of it is this extraordinary narcoticici narcissism. one of the things that fascinated me about congressman weiner, he writes to sydney
commissioner, a guy that i really love, i can only speak for myself. ray kelly came on talking about the need to continue the stop and frisk policy. do you agree with that? stop and frisk in new york city under ray kelly s leadership has been misused and abused. when you have almost in 2011 almost 700,000 people who were stopped and frisked, 600,000 of them were black and latino, and most of them were stopped for no other reason than who they were and what they looked like, there is something wrong with that. so you think stop and frisk as enforced by the police department is nothing other than racial profiling? i think stop and frisk, as being used by the police department stop and frisk is a tool. i haven t said abolish it. i said it needs to be amended, needs to be fixed. so proper training eliminating quotas or performance goals as part of this, using it correctly, going to a new era of community policing and putting more of our experienced police officers in high crime nei
weiner s problems because i want to continue this. he wants to give the story voice. you believe that we in the media haven t been talking about anthony weiner enough. you guys haven t covered that topic at all. why is that? do you think we re afraid of controversy? it s clear the media just doesn t want to tackle this tough subject. the tough subject. you actually were saying before, it s crowding out all conversation about what s going to be required of the man or woman who has to take the toughest political job in america when it comes to cities. absolutely. when you look at a race for mayor in new york city, it is a discussion about the future of this city, and right now we re not talking about affordable housing. we re not talking about education. we re not talking about the issues that are going to impact this city for decades to come. what the media is talking about is anthony weiner, and it has become a horrible distraction in this race. let s blow through some
republicans have bent over backwards. that seems like quite a stretch to me. they haven t bent over backwards. they haven t leaned over, they haven t inched over. they haven t done anything. they have stuck with their grover norquist position they re not going it raise taxes on anybody. when the whole plan b thing went up, they passed some spending stuff barely and when we were supposed to deal with the tax stuff at a million they couldn t even bring it up for a vote. i have no idea what mitch mcconnell is talking about. it seems to be nothing more than political posturing, but i want to say nobody is trying to put this on john boehner. it s on boehner. he s the speaker, and so it s not of a political bringsmanship or gamesmanship. it s the fact. it seems the strategy here, boehner obviously kind of said and i think he s been called out for this, said it s up to the president and the senate. i give up, we re leaving town. i guess now they re going to come back sunday, as if that
