decency and a service. that is what that by the living museum honors as well. lou: good evening new evidence tonight speaker boehner has the impression he cannot trust the white house. along with more reasons why the republican party cannot be able to trust john boehner. we begin with the white house senior obama advisers telling valerie jarrett that speaker boehner is working in concert with the way house on immigration legislation'' mack we have a commitment from speaker boehner who is very frustrated while pushing the message of the window between now and august to get something done he
7:01 pm
repeated that statement leading to the backpedal but as we have reported here extensively he has changed his mind on comprehensive immigration reform at least 10 times since last july. on april 24th, he openly mocked his republican colleagues for not going along with the immigration reform. >> the appetite amongst my colleagues were doing this is not real good. this guy is back here with a camera but here is the attitude. don't make me do this. this is too hard. you should hear them. >> of february 6 he declared immigration reform is no longer on that house agenda this year. >> there is widespread doubt whether this administration can be trusted to enforce our laws. it will be difficult to move
7:02 pm
any immigration legislation until the change. lou: one week earlier he pitched in amnesty proposal at the retreat to tell reporters that oppose retreat news conference i think it is time to deal with it. with his weekly house leadership news conference he said he was undecided october 2013 was hopeful of about moving legislation and a fielding a share on the 15th of july 2 days before that he had called the immigration reform unlikely. he claimed the reason was because he could not get at least have the caucus of board. so hoodie believing and why is he so conflicted and confused? is at the white house or speaker boehner? we will take it up with former president bush
7:03 pm
spokesperson and mercedes in moments. so donald sterling makes it clear he will not go down without a fight. of and the battle that lies ahead and the reaction he expects from the players and the lead. dow jones industrial average rebounding slightly and michael collins joins us with his elbow, the market. the midterm elections 171 days away the washington post is predicting a very good results for the republicans. the normally liberal post broadcast it has a 77 percent chance to take the senate to establish majority control. chris joins us in former spokesperson for george debut bush.
7:04 pm
let me begin with you. that is a terrific margin by any standard but it slipped five points from the previous estimate. are you concerned? >> we always should be concerned. this means the republican candidates have to hit the ball hard and make the home run. debt will be about making sure they stay odd message with those of, policies to focus on the failure of obamacare and we have a very motivated base to have a great chance to win but it will take that to election day. lou: to the latest fox news poll showing it would go for the democratic candidate 40 percent lead support the
7:05 pm
republican that was the reverse last month. to the republicans take too much for granted already? >> if anybody can botch that but the margins they looked at our solid if you are in the '70s sound that is solid. the numbers have gone down and it has the effect over time and they have to remain guarded between now and election day. and also to guard their left flank with the news media that will do everything they can between now and election day. lou: valerie jerry said her comments were lost in translation. the fact is that neither are offering that i would call a
7:06 pm
very convincing case of what was said or not said. neither coming out very trustworthy. your thoughts? >> i trust speaker boehner over from the rage garett. lou: i thought you would say that but we went through 10 instances who has reversed when the did 80 degrees of less than one year but still you fight him implacable. >> if the other eight jerry to wants reform bill last in shinnies to do is say the she has a commitment she has lost her chances right there. i seek speaker boehner he struggles very much. lou: you said a divisive issue nobody has spent more divisive them the speaker boehner attacking his own caucus. >> you should never an
7:07 pm
attack your own caucus simic that is the good point for him but he would like to get immigration reform done. lou: so what's. who cares? i don't care what he wants to do. the but he would just like to step out. >> but with the broken immigration system in place you continue to see that. >> it is not half as broken. >> them border security is clearly part of fixings the immigration problem. the issue is the legal pathway to citizenship. if you take that off the table it would make reform war possible. lou: why did he pass on to the solution and they have leadership and then he starts to cry like marco
7:08 pm
rubio and wanting to go with a of a gang of eight. >> john baker has evolved repeatedly in the republican can put -- caucus is a complicated place to be but valerie jarrett claims something that apparently was completely untrue and seems to contest that with her lost in translation line she did not hear it directly but this further poisons the well. honestly they have never been good with politics they don't have good relationships, and this only serves to further poison that prospect to do anything with immigration before you get into the weeds with border security and amnesty. this is just the kind of thing that poisons the conversation.
7:09 pm
lou: go back to the house judiciary. i endorse the plan. that was one of the most carefully constructed set of legislation of all that is required this deal has been frustrating everyone for eight years. >> but would never get through the us senate. they don't want the immigration bill to be successful even though they could desperately use a victory themselves. they would rather have the issue to demonize republicans we have heard the same song but it remains the same and this administration is more interested in the politics of demonizing the and getting anything done as is evidenced by the last 56 years of this administration
7:10 pm
lou: i find the language that cold air used under the file and obscene with his show where steven colbert went after karl rove using profanity. but my question is what should the republican party do when that occurs? nobody demands an apology he was over the top, a vicious vicious, and nasty, demonizing, vilifying. >> that is what they do to a lot of strategist. lou: they went further than they have never gone before with any individual. this is a special antique case. >> is very unfortunate but karl rove is -- -- brilliant political strategist and not running for office so the standards are different if you're running for office or
7:11 pm
not. it goes back to the msnbc post that they attack sarah taylor and then say something along the same lines. >> but to do something to tolerate this contact is steve subserved. >> honestly the republicans don't have the available resources we don't have a hollywood or "saturday night live" for comedy central they can be vicious and there are never any consequences. the only thing we have to combat is the truth. most of what carl process it is legitimate except the 30 day part. lou: going immediately into the weeds of the substance rather than the issue which is a vicious personal attack
7:12 pm
lou: i'm sorry i have to leave it there. >> it is par for the cars -- for the course. >> he has thick skin and he can handle it. lou: good luck karl rove. the head of the ida reportedly backed down after criticizing the president's joint sentencing policies have generated headlines since january when she slammed the obama administration bore on drugs and criticized obama for saying it is no more harmful than alcohol and spoke out of the efforts to ease sentences for drug dealers but she has now changed her tone. eric colder called for in for a meeting last month and told her to tell the of my. apparently she would toe the line. stay with us.
7:13 pm

7:16 pm
lou: many veterans groups lambs of a token and resignation at the veterans affairs department to call for the general shinseki to resign the undersecretary for health care but it turns out he was already scheduled to retire this month. his resignation comes one day after they were grilled on capitol hill about the of
7:17 pm
long appointment weights, a treatment delays and falsified records and deaths at some veterans administration hospitals. nuclear talks today broke down the west and iran our undivided of a rich restrictions and sanctions. it claims the report that every and is developing ballistic missiles that is in violation of the sanctions. joining us now is retired colonel fox and news military analyst and great to have you with us. are you surprised these talks would break down? >> the iranians have done i wonderful job to play us 11 years and we continue to play along. we always say o k bytes
7:18 pm
going into the six month process to back away from the enriching uranium in exchange for easing sanctions we have done our part. we have these distinctions. there is no indicator data step back to make for a centrifuge they will not give up on what they have already. but now perhaps to talk about another six month extension on the top. they play as well and we just ride the train. lou: is a central point that those are necessary for the production of a weapon. that is given too little attention and as you point out and it is the last thing they say willing to give up. >> we also know they are working on detonators for nuclear weapons they have
7:19 pm
been questioned and have yet to give a complete and full accounting they told the united nations those detonators are for civilian purposes. i have a hard time to come up with the reason for a full-scale detonator for a civilian purpose so we see them working on icbm clearly a nuclear weapon and we need to be worried about that as we make fools of ourselves to not break down. but israel has to be worried that is the target. lou: but most people are remarkably patient with national security and resistance on the line. >> absolutely. this president -- we have had problems between the two
7:20 pm
including netanyahu but he has the lives of the citizens on his back the safety and protection and security of israel. i don't think the israelis are ready to continue to go and as they continue to march to that nuclear weapon but they also say it is there intention to wipe israel off the map. lou: turning to the ukraine ukraine, secretary kerry warned again that there will be new sanctions on russia is ukrainian vote is any way disrupted, presumably by russian influence. another warning, a grave consequences again about this administration. what was -- what must putin be thinking? >> at least he did not draw a line in the sand but just
7:21 pm
like the iranians vladimir putin plays as well crimea will never be turned back and west will never have access the way it used to. no question those soviet agents of influence are selling seeds of discontent with the possible vote coming up on if people want to secede from the rest of the ukraine. if it goes to civil war. europe can stand by a little bit but at the end of the day they have the energy and trade concerns. so in some respect i don't think we have any great influence on putin. he knows what to do a looks like a mediator but the entire time his operatives are in eastern ukraine stirring the pot to make sure they have support from a to get people killed and
7:22 pm
the ultimate goal is that russia will have eastern ukraine if not all of its at some point. lou: to aircraft carriers helicopter attack ships made by france on their way to russia no sought to delay in any fashion and despite the sanctions. europe is on its own way flanks and it does not look like the nato alliance ever conceived to deal with any effective leader like vladimir putin who seems intent like he will have his way. >> exactly. look at the russia and estonia and latvia he probably has his eyessof them. now talking nato. not they would do anything in the immediate future but he could use as a
7:23 pm
methodology used in crimea and georgia in eastern ukraine to have russia citizens start to create problems to give their reasoning for russia to move an end. that is the true test of nato. i think people doubt if nato would stand up to the treaty it has to defend one defend all. lou: colonel, thank you as always. >> thanks for having me on. lou: last night's poll results do you believe president obama has served justice for the 9/11 attacks ? >> 96% have a different view do you believe the republican party in will win back control of the senate with the midterm elections? lou dobbs.com and later we will have the quotation of
