mean it. car stereo blowout blitz. communications on sale now! crazy eddie prices are insane! like i said, his prices are insane! starting in 1975 and running through the end of the 1980s, there were more than 7,000 of these various, deliberately manic screaming crazy eddie ads. they all end with that tag line, his prices are insane! the guy who actually appears in those ads was not crazy. he was an actor. there was a real crazy eddie. there was a real crazy guy named eddie running the company. his name was eddie antar. i think it s fair to call him crazy not just because of the name of his business but because eddie and his cousin cooked the books at that company really terribly. they ripped off something like $100 million in cash out of that company. crazy eddie, according to court documents, he would tape wads of cash all over his body and then fly overseas and stash the money he was stealing from the company in cash in all sorts of various foreign hidey holes. they were ....
about mexico, here is president trump announcing the cancellation of his meeting with the mexican president in philadelphia today. the president of mexico and myself have agreed to cancel our planned meeting scheduled for next week. unless mexico is going to treat the united states fairly, with respect, such a meeting would be fruitless and i want to go a different route. we have no choice. so david, was this sort of a mutual agreement, a mutual cancellation, or do you think that the mexican president pulled the plug? i think that the mexican president pulled the plug, and he did that because donald trump frankly put him in a corner. he kept in a tweet sort of pushing mexico saying you know you have to pay for the wall. i think nieto has to worry about his own political audience, mexicans were outraged, angry at him for months, if we talk this way to china, chinese are not going to stand for china backing down. this is very different from a business deal where you re blu ....
did not discuss sources, methods or military operations. the president only discussed the common threats that both countries face. but anderson, nowhere in these statements that were released by tillerson, powell or the national security advisor. is there any kind of denial that the president released classified information to the russians, and of course that s a deeply sensitive topic because president trump went after hillary clinton for having emails on her private server. h.r. mcmaster will be briefing reporters tomorrow on the president s upcoming foreign trip. obviously if mcmaster does not show up at that briefing, that s a telling sign that we should circle the wagons on this. it s not clear that any of those statements almost sound word for word the same, the fact that they don t specifically say hi didn t reveal classified information, that s not just an oversight that the white house put out a statement that didn t directly address that. this is the sort of deni ....
seriously tonight. a short time ago, the u.s. central command, the coalition, announced it is opening a formal assessment into whether on march 17th, in west mosul, it may have dropped bombs that killed a significant large number, perhaps, perhaps hundreds of civilians. so issue right now, nobody knows exactly what happened. all of this began to emerge over the last couple of days as social media activists in the area began to report large numbers of civilian casualties due to bombings in west mosul where there is very tough fighting against isis. the picture has been pretty murky because there s so many conflicting reports, and the u.s. doesn t have anybody on the ground there that can put eyeballs on the situation and really verify it. but the pentagon, the coalition today, a short time ago, said that they ve been able to determine that, yes, they did conduct the air strikes in one of these areas where the allegations have emerged from on march 17th. iraqi officials on the ....
