American people so they don t think we re doing the things republicans have been doing and stealing elections. we don t know exactly what he ll do. if all he does is essentially read what s in the report and doesn t go further, is there power in that? there s some pow. but not enough. most americans haven t cracked the cover of the report. they heard us talking about. it s at a remove. they have skepticism about that. if he speaks if very crisp sounds bites about what he s found. if you read the report, it s a searing indictment of the president s actions. if he can turn that into capsules that are digestible. some people will be hearing for the first time in a sense what happened. i m worried about the pace as the governor is.
Read what s in the report and doesn t go further, is there power in that? there s some pow. but not enough. most americans haven t crack the cover of the report. they heard us talking about. it s at a remove. they have skepticism about that. if he speaks if very crisp sounds bites about what he s found. if you read the report, it s a sering indictment of the president s actions. if he can turn that sfwoo capsules that are digestible. some people will be hearing for the first time in a sense what happened. i m worried about the pace as the governor is. it takes time and all that. so many americans are like why are we still talking about this. why is this going on. by the duration of it it feels like excessive to them. i don t think it is. it comes across and americans have tuned out. the attorney general did
Action should have been taken some time ago and was not for a wide variety of political reasons. both we and china understand how important it is for us to work together to diffuse the situation and for china in its important role there to make sure that it exerts what influence it can to make sure that this doesn t go further. without china on our side none of this is going to work and it will rapidly escalate over relatively short period of time because we are not in a position to wait very much longer for north koreans to weaponize a nuclear weapon and put it on a ballistic missile. whether it can reach the united states or not. we have been talking a great deal about a missile being able to range the united states. we have to remember that we have allies in the region who are much closer than that. and as a result china and the
Now we hear about this marriott/starwood merger, create this huge hotel chain. should these mergers be precluded by department of justice? well, i think there s a difference between the hotels and the airlines, and i think the problem the department of justice ended up with the airlines was they said yes to the first couple, and then how do you say no to the next one? i think we re past the point where we ve seen all the big airline mergers that we re going to see, and i think the department of justice is trying to find a way to make sure it doesn t go further. they recently stepped this to make sure united and delta couldn t lop off all the routes they wanted to in newark. you re generally speaking in the hotel world of more choice. certainly smaller cities it can be tough when you only end up with one choice where marriott and starwood will, obviously, be the monster in the room now.
Able to make it home for the holiday. heidi extended the implication to it 2 dozen marines to serve alongside their son. and opening your home and for that matter her kitchen as you can imagine was the least she could do to give thanks. these young men and women have written a blank check to the united states of america for up to and including their life. could we peel an extra potato or 40 pound turkey? you bet. local businesses host gift cards, cash and of course turkey and if you think of it if you are serving 2 dozen marines you will need a lot of turkey, all of pumpkin pie. it is different from testing the family. lea: it is important to say thank you on thanksgiving and give our thanks, we do that to all servicemen out there, men and women who put their lives on
The video and the protests are now getting lots of media coverage, but the big question here is, has the main seem media asked the important questions and continued to cover these in the way they should? joining us now, cal thomas, syndicated columnist and a fox news contributor, lynn sweet, washington bureau chief for the chicago sun-times. cal, first to you. is the mainstream media in one way or another intimidated by these protest ors and that s why they re not thing tough questions about why aren t you protesting of the other black all of the other black murders that happened inside chicago? that s part of it, but kudos to a citizen journalist on this named jamie calvin who heard about this video, and it was leaked to him, and he put it out there for all to see now before be the major media did. look, this is a horrible tragedy. anytime a 17-year-old young person is shot and killed in the streets of any city, it s awful. and if this video, in fact,
Instructors and volunteers take extra time to translate high-tech concepts into terms relevant to this generation. when we talk about podcasting, we really say, okay, go back to the 40s when what we had primarily was radio, and you d turn the radio on and listen to a radio show. that s exactly what podcasting is. reporter: technology like this has become so common place, it often arrives in the box without any instructions. that s fine if you ve grown up with it, but if you re unfamiliar wit, it s always good to have a little help. back to you. heather: i m tweeting my dad during the show today. always do it with him. my mom, on the other hand, is a different story. [laughter] jonathan serrie, thank you. reporter: my pleasure. leland: all right, tweet about this: new airline changes to airline and hotel loyalty programs have a lot of folks feeling like they re getting the bad end of a really bad deal. an expert will tell you how to fight back just as you book all
House speaker, paying to a high school in illinois where he once taught and also was a wrestling coach. more than $1 million for this former student to keep allegations of sexual misconduct quiet. hastert has not commented publicly. we ve been reaching out to him but he abruptly resigned from a washington, d.c. law firm as well as from a chicago derivatives firm. this indictment focuses not on this misconduct but more on the former wrestling coach s money and how he moved that money and allegedly paying often this former student. prosecutors saying he agreed to pay an unnamed individual $3.5 million to cover up his past misconduct according to court records. the investigations started two years when the fbi started investigating mystery transactions made by hastert and bang withdrawals of more than $950,000. the fbi alleges that several of these withdrawals were less than $10,000, so that he could evade
Things about this case if denny hastert had simply written a check to individual a, there would have been no crime, no no harm no foul and i don t think anyone would have even known about this whole situation. what made this criminal was his structuring, allegedly, of the transactions to avoid the bank reporting requirements and then lying to the fbi. if he had simply written a check, no one would have known. and this story would not be would not be public at all. pamela wanted to weigh in? reporter: just to jeffrey s point. if you read through the indictment it only says misconduct doesn t go further. a question i asked, why is that? i m told because the charges he s facing they don t really have anything to do with the actual misconduct. federal authorities are saying it s what he did after that to cover it up. a point make there. why now jeffrey, the indictment coming now? well, because these currency
Weighed in. merkel said it was going to be something the eu was going to have to join the united states and impose sanctions on the russians, and the third thing, although, eric, i think you re probably right, there are more crimeans who want to be there with russia than not, it s not that big. they did a poll and 46% of them a few months ago said yes. someone brought that poll up last week when i said the same thing, and the poll polled ukrainians. crimea is part of ukraine until this past weekend. we know the majority of crimeans want to keep it, that s what they said all along, but the crimean whose have gone to the voting boothsaid, thank you very much, we want to be russian. thank you very much under the barrel of your gun. let me ask you, kimberly, how does the administration now, working with the european union, maybe we don t want to, de-escalate the situation so it doesn t go further. i think we need help, and it s not de-escalating, unfortunately, because now they r
