If everybody is concerned about what a typical white man would say, take donald trump right there. What we need is a decent white people to step up to the late.

Im just calling because i am listening to all this. I have been watching this race for whole year. For donald trump and for people who think trump will change because he is reading from a written speech is kind of crazy. I will be voting for Hillary Hunton fraud the fact that i have seen that what she has some. She has it been record. There isnt anyone out there that doesnt have some kind of fault with them. For this man to think that she will be the next president is kind of funny. When it comes to Hillary Clintons record what stands out in your mind . Caller i watch her getting ,ealth care for children helping out with the veterans. When she was a senator of new york she was good. They voted or her twice did for people to come up and say there is something wrong with her and then to keep repeating the lie that she is untrustworthy. Tell me what she is untrustworthy about. They have had a hearings for benghazi and she left right in their faces. I dont think she did anything wrong. Theres no president , go back to george bush. They started all of this. Thousands of people died and i dont see anyone going to trial that. Subject topp is several stores is mine. A look atials taking what is happening in congress.

Fairfax, virginia, republicans line. Your next. Caller just wanted to comment on donald trump business practices. I am one understood 100 for him. Upre are some new people there that our employees that dont understand how a business is run. They are not run in a black and white fairytale way. It is for the good of the business sometimes you have to lay off workers. You have to file bank sees or the good of the business. Bankruptcy for the good of the business. Complaining that he didnt pay a few people. If he did that the whole company would be at risk. You would jeopardize a lot more job. Udall you dont always hit a home run as a business owner. You keep fighting and moving forward. Thats the thing people dont understand. You can be a hall of fame based on player if you only get three out of 10 hits. You still go to the hall of fame if you strike out sometimes. If you are looking for someone who never make your living in a fairy tale. Thats how businesses run. Hopefully people will realize that. Fight for the country and treat the country as a help theand do well to country. Caller i would like to make two points. There are so many opinions coming into the middle mix. In 2015 we hads five local elections. Decide whating to to do with two tons of chemical waste. Span could find a and a vote of confidence website where the president or any member of congress or any judge, people can call in with their computers and give a vote ,f confidence or he down vote at least that way people would know what is going on. Before you go can i ask your question . Thatentioned third parties you yourself like a third hardy candidate over mr. Trump or mrs. Clinton . Caller i had a difficult time for that. I dont want my vote to be wasted. Both of them have good ideas but i would be scared to death to have donald trump in if theres not a vote of confidence website that he will honor. Host among gary johnson and stein whoe, jill do you like . Caller i dont. Later on in this program youll get to meet an independent residential candidate that just enter the race in early august. He will tell you about his candidacy and why he is running 9 15 easternon at standard time. From holiday, florida on the demo rats line. Caller the only thing i want to say is for the people that want to know the truth go watch bob hartley on free tv. Why do you think they tell you the truth . Caller he will tell you what is going on in the Republican Party. Lillie in hollywood, florida, joining us on the line for dumb rap democrats. Three months after the u. S. Supreme court to seek out a compromise on the Birth Control mandate and obamacare, the hasnistration is saying asked the public to weigh in next month on ways to ensure women get access to contraceptives. From salem, oregon, ron on the republican line. I am a republican. I think that Hillary Clinton would be a great candidate for the tv show american greed. I really do. She is the worst. Why dont people open their eyes. Donald trump, the way he talks i am confused. But the better of the two evils has to be donald trump. I have to vote for him. Crooked. S so they didnt help the blacks. They lied. Ony put them behind them stage. It is so funny. Have you ever considered a Party Candidate in the mix . Caller est they that never works. It would be great if it would. They have no chance. The Clinton Campaign announced yesterday that it would not accept foreign donor nations if Hillary Clinton was elected president. Ok not ok to take the money as president but yet still take the money when the policy existed when she was secretarys of state. When the rules were put in place they were a big burden on the foundation. Important to remember what the foundation does. Over 10 Million People around the world get aid and light saving medication because of the foundation. It has reduced the cost of malaria drugs by 90 . It is important work. There was some foreign governments like australia and norway that had existing donations to the foundation. The foundation wanted them to be able to follow through on their commitment. It was an unprecedented step they took in 2009. The foundation said they are prepared to take this step should hillary become president to further disclosure limits. Is this the right policy now why not do it now . Why wait until the idea of her being president . Inthe foundation is doing it new orleans and it takes time when you are in a number of countries around the world to retool, refocus the mission and adapt. They receive a great deal of funding through these and it will take some time for them to readjust. More call, beaumont, texas on the independent line. I just wanted to comment on the fact the loose ship that donald trump is taking right now in an effort to try to gain the africanamerican and hispanic community. After eightk that or nine months that he his statements against hispanic it and talk down to the africanamericans. Why would any black or suntrust him right now that he would be sincere enough to support their vote .

During herclinton tenure at the state department. Later on in the program how are young voters responding to this years president ial candidates . Washington journal continues after this. Tonight on the communicators virginia Commonwealth Attorney Mike Doucette and aclu attorney on how long was meant uses cell phone tracking to find criminals and terrorist suspect. The way they operate is by impersonating a cell phone tower. Gatherws police to information or serum numbers and not just in the target zone but all target zones in that area. I can think of one gruesome homicide we had and let berger couple of years ago, where the case was resolved by cell tower information, but it broke the case. We would have never found the suspect. It can be helpful. Watch it tonight on a eastern on cspan two.

Host joining is tom fitton of Judicial Watch. For those who folks who dont know what is your organization. Guest it is a nonprofit foundation. We find out what the government is up to and tell the people about it. We do that by the freedom of information act. Theet documents about what government is doing great if they dont turn over the documents to you or a new ignore you you can see them in federal court. , that process is one of your claims of fame with Hillary Clintons emails. Guest we were asking things like benghazi, the special gamete government employees. They were not giving us clintons emails. We had this revelation through the benghazi litigation where we pushed for the documents and they finally admitted there were documents, and it turns out it was clintons emails. ,ne of our cases was reopened which led to discovery and texted by clinton aides and state departmentish officials. Written testimony was released through Judicial Watch. Host the headlines from one of those stories said the judge would not allow the upper deposition of mrs. Clinton. Looking for that because it is the best way to find out information from someone. Other officials had already testified. It was a commonsense request to ask for her testimony. I thought the judge realized official,as a high its not exactly everything we wanted but certainly it is more what mrs. Clinton wanted to do. Now she has to answer questions under both in written forms. We will be submitting russians to mrs. Clinton and she has 30 days to respond. Host will this information then come out to the public for election day . Guest presumably. We will be filing with the court as well. It will be available
