Vefrg investigation. Now the doj is asking the attorney general to look into the president s claims. Theyre setting up a meeting with the doj along with congressional leaders to share highly classified information, democrats demanding a seat at the table for that meeting. What does all of this really mean . Will the Justice Department be forced to turn over highly classified documents on the fbi source, documents subpoenaed by house intel chairman and trump ally devin nunes . A lot to get to in the coming hours here on cnn. I want to bring in senior economics analyst Stephen Moore who was a Senior Adviser to the Trump Campaign. Also Global Affairs max booth, the author of the road not taken. Stephen, the president is demanding an investigation of the investigation. The Justice Department is kicking this over to the inspector general. Do you think this is another attempt by the president to put a roadblock on the Russian Investigation . I think you stated one thing wrong where you said trump is incensed at his own Justice Department. No, hes incensed at the obama Justice Department. It was the obama Justice Department that is alleged to have been investigating his campaign. So its not as if hes blaming his own Justice Department. Hes basically saying if you have the Justice Department of one party investigating the other party. Are you really saying that . He slams the Justice Department of his own part along with barack obamas. Barack obama is not the doesnt that trouble you at all, don, that that might have happened . No, it doesnt trouble me because i dont think it happened. Shouldnt we get to the bottom it haof it . No, because there is no evidence that it happened. It is a complete red herring. It is all built on conspiracy theories and residents of capitol hill are going along with it. You guys did the same thing wih the whole unmasking thing which turned out to be nothing, which turned out to be a Conspiracy Theory, and this is a Conspiracy Theory as well. So we should investigate things on conspiracy theories. The entire Mueller Investigation, how many people have pleaded guilty in the Mueller Investigation . Come on, if i as a member of that damn pacampaign, if the mu team came after me, it would have kocost me a quarter of a Million Dollars to defend myself, i would have been potentially charged with prison sentences. If you did nothing wrong . Thats the key point here. If donald trump were innocent and he found out that the fbi was trying to figure out if there was russian infiltration of his campaign, he should be in favor of that as a good, honest, patriotic, innocent american. He should be in favor of ferrying out espionage. We know there were at least three or four people on the Trump Campaign who were closely linked with the kremlin. Instead of trying to ferret that out, instead of trying to help the investigation, donald trump is doing everything he can to obstruct the investigation, including trying to use the tried and true tactic of investigating the investigators. This is a shocking breach of democratic norms. This is an assault on the rule of law. This is an assault on the constitution. This is unconscionable what donald trump is doing here. He is assaulting the fbi and the department of justice because he is meddling in the investigation of his own campaign. And max, you are a republican, arent you . Im a former republican. I left the party in disgust over donald trump and the fact that other republicans looked the other way while he was assaulting the basic norms of our democracy. Stephen, let me ask you this. Lets just say the Mueller Investigation turns up nothing. Then how do you say, well, Robert Mueller was right, the investigation was right after so much effort has been made to undermine the investigation . Are republicans and the president s allies then going to switch and say, see, we told you so, we love Robert Mueller, hes exactly right. I think at the end of the day, thats exactly whats going to happen. So what are you saying if you say its a witch hunt . It is a witch hunt. I think most republicans think that this is an investigation thats out of control, and i have to say, i dont understand your argument. I mean, the single most troubling allegation that ive seen throughout all of these last year is the idea that the Justice Department of one party may have been spying on the president ial campaign of another. There is no evidence of that. Its all built on the Conspiracy Theory. How do you know its nonsense, max . There is zero evidence of what youre saying. If the fbi and the obama Justice Department were trying to hurt the Trump Campaign, why is it that they kept their investigation of trump such a tightly held secret that nobody knew about until after the election . It doesnt make any sense. Because maybe they didnt find anything, thats the point. They found a lot of things. They found at least four members of the Trump Campaign that were closely linked with the russians. You had the Campaign Manager and the Campaign Manager whose associate was a former go officer in the ukraine. You had papadopoulos and carter page who was linked with the russians. Papadopoulos pleaded guilty to a crime. Carter page was under a fisa investigation as a suspected foreign agent. There was a lot of things that had they leaked it before trump was nominated would have hurt his campaign. But they didnt leak it. They protected National Security, something trump and his aides dont seem to care much about, im sad to say. Max, youre saying that because you hate trump. No, im saying that, steve, because its a fact. It is true. This is a fact. People are believing what they want to believe. Steve, no, you are not entitled to alternative facts. There is reality here. You cannot make up these fact. Why not investigate whether or not the obama Justice Department was investigating the president ial campaign . Because there is no evidence of it and this is the president ordering a politically motivated investigation, to distract from the investigation of his own campaign. This is highly improper. It has not happened before. Look, i read your piece today and you were saying, gee, you know, this is a politically motivated prosecution. And look, i would say the same thing about the Mueller Investigation that is false, steve, that is false. Robert mueller is a republican, okay . He was appointed by another republican, rod rosenstein. What youre saying is nonsense. Max, so lets talk about your story and a little bit more about this. It relates to the news today, and i want you to go through the political norms that President Trump is breaking. This is the latest piece in the washington post. Revealing sources politically motivated, prosecutions are m mixing private and government busine business. What trump is doing now politically entering in the Justice Department sin kris incy damaging. This is the stuff we havent seen since watergate. But also incredibly damaging is donald trump is trying to get the Postal Service to double the rates of amazon because hes mad at be sdplrzos of the washingt pos post. In one week, donald trump has undermined five basic rules of normalcy. Attorney general eric holder put out this tweet. He says more norms being eroded. Trump a subject of the investigation wants access to material related to the inquiry. His congressional supporters want evidence connected to an ongoing investigation. Time is doj fbi to simply say no, protect the institutions and time tested norms. The question is whether it has been contaminated and has been politicized. That is a serious thing for the number one Law Enforcement agency of the United States to potentially have gotten involved in a Political Campaign is a very serious charge. And you keep saying there is no evidence of that, but look, well see. Trump is alleging it and theres all these allegations against him that are still unproven. Why is one allegation we should investigate and the other allegation we shouldnt . Because trump is the president of the United States. Barack obama is not. The russians, according to every intelligence source, interfered in our election. Thats part of the investigation. But theres also max, you know, theres allegations that Hillary Clinton had connections with the russians as well. Look, im not an expert on this steve, please, please, what youre doing is incredibly day k dangerous because there are actual facts showing the russians interfered in our election, there are facts showing the russians had an impact on the Trump Campaign. And donald trump is making false facts claiming Hillary Clinton sold oil to the ukranians. Please, you have to be able to sort out lies from facts, real facts from alternative facts, and please dont say this is part of the white house strategy just to throw out false information and say, who knows, you kapt macant make up your m. No, we have to sort it out, and the evidence that robert mule ser presenti mueller is presenting is very real, and what donald trump is presenting is not. Robert mueller hasnt even shown us anything. Mueller has gotten 22 indictment and see five guilty pleas. And hes got a lot more. We dont know what mueller has, but in the same breath when people say there is collusion, and in the same breath you say, there is no evidence of it yeah. There is no evidence of the same thing youre alleging as well. So one should be investigated and the other shouldnt . There is a lot more evidence of collusion than there is evidence of Justice Department bias against President Trump. There is no evidence whatsoever of that bias. There is a ton of evidence of collusion, including 72 contacts between the Trump Campaign and the russians. We do know, as a matter of fact, max, that there was an investigation by the Obama Administration against the Trump Campaign. Thats a pretty to intervene in a political election . It was to defend the United States from russian sabotage and infiltration. It was against the kremlin, it wasnt against the Trump Campaign. You keep saying collusion, and the reason i made the point that i did, because the scope of the Russian Investigation, okay, they authorized you to conduct the investigation confirmed by then fbi director james comey and testimony before the permanent select committee. It says, any links or coordination between the russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Trump and any matters any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation. Its more than just collusion. There is evidence of other crimes or matters that arose from the investigation that are being pointed out in these indictments and these guilty pleas. Including obstruction of justice which year seeing all the time now. There is more and more evidence of obstruction of justice. What trump is doing today is more evidence of that obstruction. I want to move on because i want to talk about north korea. This is just released. Its a white house military keihne fcoin for the upcoming summit with trump and kims faces on it. The white house is saying they had no input into the design, but thats a symbol of exactly the kind of thing kim jongun likes to be given status with the United States. Max, what do you think . The coin itself is no big deal other than calling this ow odious dictator is pretty rich. He has talked about how kim jongun is a fine and honorable man and talked about how denuclearization is already going to happen. Last week the koreans said they had very little desire to engage in unilateral disarmement. So i think you need to ratchet down the expectations, and i think hold off on that Nobel Peace Prize that donald trump seems to think hes already deserving. Donald trump has one goal in mind, and that is to disarm the biggest lunatic on the planet of his nuclear weapons. Do i think this photograph is a wise thing . Probably not. But if he can pull this off, maybe he does get a Nobel Peace Prize because weve made more progress with north korea than obama. You and i Work Together at the wall street journal. Maybe he wont get the Nobel Peace Prize, but i think you and i can agree he deserves the nobel economic prize. Hes on the edge of economic dismay if he puts out these tariffs. Were going live to hawaii where the kilauea volcano is spewing at residents. Look at that. Thanks, gentlemen. Well be right back. Once there was an organism so small no one thought much of it at all. People said it just made a mess until exxonmobil scientists put it to the test. They thought someday it could become fuel and power our cars wouldnt that be cool . And thats why exxonmobil scientists think its not small at all. Energy lives here. We have breaking news out of hawaii tonight. Take a look at your screen. Unbelievable. Thousands of people on the big island have already been forced to flee kilauea volcano. But they are dangerous way beyond eruptions there. Im reading slowly because i want you to see the images on your screen. Lets get to Stephanie Elam who is covering this kilauea volcano. Unbelievable, stephanie. What is the most amazing aspect of whats going on right now other than the fact youre standing in front of, clearly, a very, very active volcano. Reporter yeah, in fact, im going to step out so you can get a better vision of that lava fountain you see there. The color of it is just phenomenal, but you see behind it, that plume of white gas behind it, that is a huge concern for the people who live in this area because it is toxic. The sulphur dioxide can be very dangerous, and depending on which way the wind is blowing, it makes it very difficult for people to breathe, it can irritate the eyes. Its a problem. Then if you look down, you see how the lava has just burned through and taken out this part of the big island here. I want to explain that sound you probably heard behind me as well, besides this lava you see there. You can see in the distance where the lava has coursed down and it has hit the sea water, and where its hit that sea water, its having a reaction where its creating hydrochloric acid and a gas along with that steam. Its very dangerous as well. So the coast guard has created a perimeter to keep people away from that. Then you hear that loud boom behind me. Believe it or not that is volcanic gases with such strength that its throwing ash up into the sky. You cant really see it, but thats what that noise is. The most fascinating thing being out here with the volcano, don, is the fact that it is so loud. Helicopters are around all the time, too, but the fact of how loud it is when you are near one of these fissures in the earth, and theres about two dozen of them now. When you hear those fissures, that is really whats really jarring here. But these people have lived with this for about two weeks and theres no end in sight. How far away are you, stephanie . Youre at a safe distance, right . Reporter we definitely take precautions, don. We are a safe distance away from here, bit it could change. Those winds could change. So we do keep gas masks with us you get the ash, right . Were prepared to leave if we need to. The ash comes down and that happens when you see eruption from the kaldera of kilauea and thats inside the national park. Thats happened and its rained, so its contained the ash. Thats part of it. Its really the gases, and when you get close to them, they take your breath away, they irritate your throat, they give you headaches. Its nothing to play with. If youre in there too much, it can kill you. When you get close to that lava like we definitely have, its nothing you want to play with. But we keep our wits about us, we make sure we stand away from the wind. Its stronger than it was yesterday. Theyre mesmerizing, no doubt. Well come back to stephanie keeping an eye on that volcano. Also the ash not good for airplanes. They have to steer around those because that can take an airplane down. Thank you very much, stephanie. When we come back, another meeting donald trump had with foreign nationals who wanted to help his father win. Was it illegal, and should someone have raised a red flag . At tmobile, we dont just see uniforms. We see the people behind them. So were committed to helping veterans through job training when their service ends. And to hiring 10,000 veterans and military spouses to be part of our workforce in the next 5 years. Because no matter where you serve. Or when you serve. Tmobile stands ready to serve you. So we provide halfoff on all family lines for military. Vo theyre getting by starting with miraclegro potting mix and plant food. Together, guaranteed to produce three times the harvest. More to enjoy. To share. Three times the harvest. One powerful guarantee. Miraclegro. If youd have told me three years ago. That wed be downloading in seconds, what used to take. Minutes.

Its like 20 times faster than what most people have. Id of said. Id of said youre dreaming. Dreaming definitely dreaming. Then again, dreaming is how i got this far. Now more businesses in more places can afford to dream gig. Comcast, building americas largest gigspeed network. The president s namesake, donald trump jr. , may be in more hot water tonight over another meeting with foreigners who wanted his father to win the white house. The New York Times reporting that the meeting took place october 16 with george nader, an emirate prince from saudi arabia and was put together by eric prince, a trump supporter. I want to talk to Robert Zelman and attorney harry litmanme. Good evening to all of you. Another meeting with george nader who wanted to help his father. The princes who led saudi arabia and the Arab Emirates were eager to help his father win election as president. The social media specialist, joel zamel, extolled his companys ability to give an edge to a Political Campaign. By that time the firm had already drawn up a multimilliondollar proposal for a social media manipulation effort to help elect mr. Trump. Is it legal, in your view . It seems pretty straightforward, don. It plays as one more little thing for trump jr. I dont understand the casualness. Its a federal crime to so lili anything of value from a foreign national, even from trump jr. s act where he rebuffed the offer. It seems he was straightforward soliciting something of value, but if 2 million payments were made after, it seems to me of par with the russian meeting overall and a serious charge for trump jr. Is it illegal in your view, michael . It could be. It depends on the circumstances. If this was a solicitation as was just said of something of value thats willful, then its a potential violation of Campaign Finance laws. At this point i dont think we know enough to absolutely conclude that, but we do know that this meeting, along with the june 9th meeting, combined with Cambridge Analytica and the kushner Data Analytics thing all create one big package of foreign nationals endeavoring to work with the Trump Organization to impact the outcome of the election and thats got to be investigated. Julia, it is unclear if any social media plan was ever executed, and the attorneys for trump and zamel said they met and nothing came of it. We know that Many Americans were manipulated by social media in 2016. How does this add up to you . That the world and many governments knew that the trumps and trump family were for sale, and they were not selling the trumps, they were selling the United States interests. I dont believe in coincidences anymore with this family or with this investigation. It was always shocking from the National Security perspective that when trump became president , america, not trumps, americas interests lined with saudi arabia and ueae against qatar and the gulf in the middle east. You put pieces together, and who knows if there is a direct line, if there is causality, but you see the trumps are known to sell, they are known to be bought, and are willing to take these meetings, period. Lets just stop there. They are taking these meetings. And then policy changes out of the blue. We ha we had the same thing with the Kushner Family and the baling o bailing out of various buildings and we had the same thing with the russians. At some stage there are no more coincidences, and donald trump jr. Is an adult male who is running the trump company. The idea that hes somehow naive, its like male privilege at this stage. Its ridiculous. Hes an adult male. He knows that this is wrong. I want to talk about george nader and his role in this, because we know, michael, that he is cooperating with Robert Mueller, and cnn is reporting that nader attended a number of meetings involving emirati officials and trumps inner circle. It seems as if this august 3rd meeting that we were just talking about at trump tower, along with another meeting in the seychelles, and the allegations that there were policy changes in the aftermath of those meetings that nader is in the epicenter of those things. So what we thought was a sort of incidental witness seems now to be coming more important to the investigation. Harry, also at the same time in january of 2017 of that meeting, cnn news reporting that nader was at the same hotel bar as eric prince when prince met with a russian banker and a friend of vladimir putin. Prince later denied to the house intel that he was trying to set up a backchannel with putin. How do you see all this cloak and dagger . Is this cloak and dagger stuff . It feels like it for prince. Prince not only denies that, he denies that he had any communications and it looks like a flat lie. But the significance here is that nader is cooperating. Mueller already knows, as has been the case in so many instances where snippets emerge, whether trump jr. Was telling the truth that it was an innocent meeting and he rebuffed it right away. Nader has told mueller everything nader knows, and i think that likely bodes very ill for trump jr. Juliet, you were talking a lot about don jr. There saying hes a grown man and he should know better. He apparently had no hesitation in meeting with foreign nationals during the campaign. First it was that famous meeting with the russians in june of 2016. Now three months later, with an emissary for the saudis and the emirates, do you think there was one red flag after another and that no one seemed to understand what was going on here . There were 72 contacts amongst the Trump Campaign and russians that were denied over the course of the last two years. I mean, remember, this family and this president started off that there were no contacts whatsoever. Were now at 72 known contacts, at least what we know right now. The red flags, i mean at this stage, its just a fire in terms of the number of contacts that are going on. And i think one of the hard things for us to contemplate but that clearly the trump family contemplates is that they see no difference between what benefits the trump family monetarily and that being beneficial to the United States. That may be true in some instances. Maybe theyll benefit from Good American Foreign Policy as Many Companies do, but it does raise questions about why we didnt do the sanctions, why the Trump Administration has been tough on the sanctions, why they change their position to saudi arabia and the uae, why the chinese tariff thing is going on and why the chinese suddenly bail out the trump family in another property. It starts to make sense if you just see for the trumps, their interest is americas interest. For us thats not true. And that is but to the heart of the question, though, do you believe that with all of these coincidences, do you think there was no one in the campaign to raise a red flag, no one knew what was happening here . Oh, no, i mean, i dont know who in fact knew it, but the idea that trump jr. Is acting as unknown to others in the campaign is ridiculous. First of all, remember this campaign. This campaign literally had like 10 people in it at the time and trump jr. Is always calling his dad. I got to run, juliet. Sorry about that. Were out of time. I appreciate t all of you. When we come back, a Border Patrol detains two u. S. Citizens simply because they were speaking spanish. One of those women will join me next. I no wondering, what if . Uncertainties of hep c. I let go of all those feelings. Because i am cured with harvoni. Harvoni is a revolutionary treatment for the most common type of chronic hepatitis c. Its been prescribed to more than a quarter million people. And is proven to cure up to 99 of patients whove have had no prior treatment with 12 weeks. Certain patients can be cured with just 8 weeks of harvoni. Before starting harvoni, your doctor will test to see if youve ever had hepatitis b, which may flare up and cause serious liver problems during and after harvoni treatment. Tell your doctor if youve ever had hepatitis b, a liver transplant, other liver or kidney problems, hiv or any other medical conditions and about all the medicines you take including herbal supplements. Taking amiodarone with harvoni can cause a serious slowing of your heart rate. Common side effects of harvoni include tiredness, headache and weakness. Ready to let go of hep c . Ask your hep c specialist about harvoni. You know at the heart of what mayor villaraigosa is doing today, hes fighting to make this country more equal and more just. President obama called him one of americas finest mayors. Hes more prepared to get things done. Antonio for governor. Brought business and labor together to expand Career Training and apprenticeships, invested in transportation and helped create over 200,000 living wage jobs. Antonio villaraigosa for governor. Tonight the American Civil Liberties union is looking into what happened when a Border Patrol agent detained and questioned two u. S. Citizens. Why were two american women stopped at a montana gas station . Believe it or not, it was all because they were speaking spanish. One of the women recorded the video of the incident. Watch this. So can you tell us in the video, please, why you ask us for our ids, please . Maam, the reason i asked for your ids is i came in here and saw that you guys were speaking spanish which is very unheard of up here. Okay. Because you are racial, right . It has nothing to do with that. It has to do with the fact that you were speaking spanish in the store in a state that is predominantly white. The woman you heard in that video is anna suta. Anna, thank you so much. Walk us through what happened at this gas station. Well, in the video, you can see we needed some eggs and my friend needed some milk for her daughter, so we decided to go to the gas station because we dont have a store open. That was the only store, so we stopped there while we picked up the items, and i was in line. I was going to pay. I was next in line. And i hear my friend say something, so i look back and it was these Border Patrol agents. He look at me and he asked me where i was born. So i look at him and i say, are you serious . Hes like, i am very serious. I said, i was born in el paso, texas. And he looked at my friend, and my friend said, i was born in el centro, california. So he said, i need to see your i. D. Ets he said i need your i. D. I said, i am going to pay and then ill give you my i. D. He said, no, youll give me your i. D. So i said, okay, ill give you my i. D. Im going to my truck, im going to pick up my cell phone and im going to record you. He said, okay. So i gave him my i. D. He went outside. I pay for my items and i picked up my cell phone and i started recording. How long were you in the parking lot . How long did he question you . I believe it was like 35 to 40 minutes for the whole thing. It was that long . Yeah. Like 40 minutes. So when he said, i want to see your i. D. Because youre speaking spanish, i mean, that is most people would consider that racial profiling. Does he not understand that . I am not a lawyer, but to me it is. It is a racial profiling. You werent speaking german or frercnch or some other lang e language . You need to ask them because i dont know what happened. You know, i asked at the last when they gave me my paperwork, a supervisor came, and he said, is everything okay . I said, no. He asked me for my i. D. Because i was speaking in spanish. Thats the reason he gave me. And he said, oh, okay. I said, no, its not okay. If a canadian crossed the border and starts speaking french, are you going to ask him for an i. D. Like you asked me . And he said, they dont do that. So try to tell me canadians dont speak french when they come to the United States. Heres what the Border Patrol told cnn. They said they are reviewing the incident knowing they have the authority to question individuals, make arrests, and take and consider evidence. What do you say to that . I wasnt doing anything criminal. I believe they have to have a reason to stab you. Not just because you speak spanish. I dont believe that is a reason. I dont believe thats a crime. Your sevenyearold daughter saw the video and said you should not speak spanish anymore. How do you explain this to her . Well, i was upstairs and she was watching a video with my husband. I didnt watch it at that time. Ill say, mama, youre wautchin the television. She said, i know. So i say, we cant watch the Television Anymore . I think im going to bring this to somebody else for help, the aclu, because i told her, you need to be proud. You need to be proud because we speak spanish and youre speaking in english. Youre very smart. And you need to be proud to speak spanish. How can you explain to a sevenyearold this . Well, anna, thank you for coming on. Will you please tell us what happens . Of course. Thank you so much for covering me. When we come back, i want to talk more about this story thats happening in washington. More doing chores for dad per roll more earning something you love per roll bounty is more absorbent, so the roll can last 50 longer than the leading ordinary brand. So you get more life per roll. Bounty, the quicker picker upper no one thought much of itm at all. L people said it just made a mess until exxonmobil scientists put it to the test. They thought someday it could become fuel and power our cars wouldnt that be cool . And thats why exxonmobil scientists think its not small at all. Energy lives here. The Digital Divide is splitting this country. We have parents who are trying to get their kids off of too much social media and computers, and then we have parents who would only hope their children have access. Middle school is a really key transition point, right. The stakes start changing. Students begin to really start thinking about their futures. What i like about verizons approach is that its not limited to just giving kids new tools, its really about empowering educators to teach in different ways, and exposing kids to more active forms of learning. Giving technology is not a total solution. Teaching technology, now that is. You just heard from an american citizen who was detained by a Border Patrol agent for simply speaking spanish. I want to discuss her story with commentators nina cardona and alice stewart. Hello, don. Muy bien. Can i see your id . The Border Patrol stopped her because she was speaking spanish. She says its because of race. What do you think, is it racial profiling . He admitted on camera and to her face that he racially profiled her. He said, im detaining you because youre speaking spanish and not many people speak spanish around here. Last time i checked, speaking spanish is not a crime around here. If it was, i would be in jail. But heres the larger point, don. As you know, im a naturalized citizen. Spanish is my first language. I speak spanish at home. We speak spanish everywhere we go. I think theyve even spoken spanish on your show. To me that is a privilege. For me to be able to teach them a second language and a language that more and more people are using here in this country, that is what makes this country great. But what is so scary and incredibly appalling about this is that the occupant of the white house, what he has done, what he has said, the policies that they have supported are what is making this kind of thing more allowable. I just want to get everyones opinion going around. I know youre conflicted about Border Patrol. What do you think about this . I see both sides. I worked with Border Patrol in my capacity when i worked in capitol hill. They have a very tough job. And a lot of people dont realize Border Patrol has jurisdiction within 100 air miles of any border, air or extends inland. This was 35 miles from the Canadian Border of the what people dont realize is that there is some gray area in what institutes reasonable suspicion for Border Patrol officers tow inquire about someones status. Defining reasonable suspicion is where everyone gets very upset. Why he would be suspicious if someone is speaking spanish . We dont know whether he would have if someone was speaking french. Were assuming in this circumstance that there was something other than reasonable suspicion. Now, it says in Border Patrol regulations, and as recent as april 2013, that you can use nationality as a factor in questioning someone. Not race or ethnicity but nationality or country of origin. That may seem technical to some people but thats what the law says. But their country of origin is the United States. Theyre United States citizens. He didnt know if. Until he questioned them. But thats profiling them. That doesnt mean that its not profiling just because its allowed. It is permitted by the Supreme Court. But its wrong. Its wrong because someone is speaking a language. I dont want to hear it. Stop, stop, stop. What if they were speaking german or french. No. It is wrong. It is profiling. Is it illegal to speak a different language . Why is he stopping them from speaking a different language . He didnt stop her he. Did thats what em. Youre not understanding i am understanding it. Youre not making sense of he is stopping her because she was speaking spanish. Please roll the tape. Please roll the tape. This is ridiculous. I cant believe that youre can you tell us for the video police what you asked us for our ids work . The reason i asked you for your ids is because i came in here and i saw that youre speaking spanish, which is very unheard of up here. Okay. Just write your name and date of birth. Because our racial nothing to do with. That it has to do with you speaking spanish in the store of the. Spanish in the store. In a state where it is predominantly english speaking. Okay. So Supreme Court cases saying it is allowed. U. S. Versus martinez can we let alice talk, please . You may be like it it is racial profiling. Can we let alice talk, please . As we heard in the piece leading up to the interview, the Border Patrol does have the authority to question individuals. And they do have the right to receive information. But he is the classic case of racial profiling. It would be different if he was, if there had been an all points bulletin on two Hispanic Women that ronald a convenience store. They were just women minding their own business shopping in a store and he overheard them speaking spanish. The fact that he said im questioning you, iable and your id because youre speaking spanish. Thats racial profiling. If nothing else, im so glad did you the interview. Thats the first ive seen this woman. If nothing else from this, the fact she is able to reinforce to her daughter, be proud of who you are, be proud of your heritage and dont be afraid. Well be right back.
