Actors and often with different disparate groups. >> its tenuous at best. theres always a quid pro quo. were going to offer you this. in exchange, you must offer us this. we will always do our offering first. if its not reciprocated, all future deals are off the table and you must be prepared to enact that force that you talked about. it just cant be an empty promise. if you directly state it, if the quid pro quo was not mutual, not reciprocated, then you act on it, you have to. >> rick, intelli...

Sigma group. she told me the evaluation committee proposed putting chris christie in the commercials. >> none included the governor, none of the concepts featured the governor. given how high profile he is and he is a beloved figure in the state it wasnt surprising that they asked us if we would be open to him being featured. our response was very neutral. >> now, christies critics were very vocal that it gave him an unfair advantage in the gubernatorial race though many said he was the face of ...

That is pretty damn serious. so i didnt think the analogy was as ridiculous as you all do. >> heres the thing. its not as big of a crime perhaps. but what it does speak to -- >> isnt it? if it turns out people -- what if it turns out that this 91-year-old woman who died of a heart attack could have been saved if they had got there four minutes earlier, for example? how much bigger of an offense do we need to have? >> then it becomes a bigger criminal case. become a bigger conspiracy. becomes a b...

Become a bigger conspiracy. becomes a bigger conversation. what im saying is the intentionality of the christie campaign certainly wasnt to kill a 91-year-old woman. lets not over state it. but it indicates a certain kind of pathology. a guy who was winning an election by 25%. there was no question he was going to win that election by a landslide is still punishing a small town mayor and its citizens for an endorsement. >> lets remind everyone that he vehemently denies knowing any of it. you wer...

Of my comments, please. you were wrong, bill, because trayvon martin looked a certain way, he died because he attacked zimmerman. there is no corroborating evidence of that, tom, there was reasonable doubt, you were not there, i was not there, the jury was there. it is wrong to stay what you said and state it as fact. we dont know. ft. worth texas, redskins does not refer to skin color but to war paint, so i guess we should call the team the washington red paints. so he suggests dennis rodman be...

Disappointed, trayvon martin was not killed because of his clothing, you dont wear a suit to go to the store. he was killed because of zimmermans destructive temper. think about what i said, young black men are stereotyped because of how they look on the street and because of high crime rates. and that is a fact, doesnt make it right. and that is a fact, doesnt make it right. all right, so keep the context of my comments, please. you were wrong, bill, because trayvon martin looked a certain way,...

Saw the story where race did suddenly come to the forefront. and so -- but that brings up the point. who at these news outfits decides to filter. why not put all the facts throughout. >> okay. im going to say im guilty. this was my block, the first day that we covered the story on "the five," it was my block. i prepared all day. it never occurred to me to ask or look into the color of the victims. i was just horrified that it happened to a 13-year-old boy. i felt that it -- look at it from the o...

Thats 26,000 cases and thats a problem. joining me now is senator kirsten gillibrand of new york who is introducing legislation tomorrow that would change how the military moves forward with sexual assault prosecutions. senator, thanks for joining us. >> pleasure to be on, jake. >> we have another case here, the second case in two weeks of a military officer in charge of preventing sexual assaults being investigated for sexual misconduct. you have said that calling this disturbing would be a gro...

Hurt and may still be fighting for their lives. our thoughts and our prayers go out to them. what happened yesterday was a terrible tragedy. it was amazing to see as you have heard from my colleagues here how people just helped one another, ran toward the blast, just to assist another person in greater need. people who were just there for those that were hurt and in a dire situation. it was amazing to see how the city of boston, and people from around the world, that were part of yesterdays bost...
