Strategy as to blame the weather on the republicans? people are always dissatisfied with the weather. its worth remembering, though, we had dust bowls in the 1930s when temperatures were just about as high as today, and you know, the weather is always changing. its always unsatisfactory, and if you can blame it on the republicans, you got a big political coup. mark: thats right, knowledge and anti-knowledge seems to be reversed when it comes to the left. well be right back. theres little rest fo...

We are here because the distinction between the u.s. interests and the trump and kushner financial interests is unclear to us and therefore, unclear to the saudis. i mean, we are here at this moment because we dont have assady ambassador, or saudi u.s. relations, they are run by the son in law, who has been razzled and dazzled by a good looking and new leader, that everyone has been skeptical of. we are here at the moment, not because of donald trumps bad luck or hard choices, but because for th...

How will such complaints be adjudicated if and when they come to light? thats one thing to keep in mind as we go forward. we are in completely uncharted territory right now. the other thing to think about is this. its not really clear that the republicans have much data or historical precedent to back up their conviction that imposing kavanaugh on an unwilling majority of americans is going to give them a boost to victory next month. cnn is just out with this new poll tonight, taken thursday thr...

Too, of is the supreme court tainted, right? in everything that we have seen, not only all of this playing out but moving forward, i mean, is there a way for whatever judgments are to not be seen as political? >> one of my favorite justices in history was robert jackson that served in the 1940s and 50s, and he said something about the supreme court that is always worth remembering, we are not final because we are infallible, we are infallible because we are final. you can like the supreme court ...

Mom get some rest. so the next day, when detectives came by the house where lizz and sandra were staying, the daughter was the one to field their questions. >> and you flew in, uh, yesterday? >> yes. >> thats right. >> okay. >> reporter: and lizz, thought it prudent to record the conversation. she updated the detectives on her mothers health. >> shes just in complete shock, and she has retrograde amnesia at the moment. she has a hard time remembering things as it is because of the seizures. >> r...

At that point it might say that mr. williams requested confidentiality, and in that case the name would be redacted from people its being presented to. and then it cites what was said but its not a verbatim description. sometimes when youre in a sensitive interview youre seeking a confession, it doesnt help to have a notepad out or youre clicking on your laptop in front of the subject. but rather youve got to have eye contact and report. so you get very good as an fbi agent of leaving the room a...
