i think you are exactly right. the miscalculation on either side. >> if they could do something, others could respond and before you not, 30,000 are on the trip wire. lou: this administration 7 1/2 year legacy of miscalculation. >> on the golf course. phone it in. can't be bothered. lou: good night from new york. [♪] kennedy: welcome to a new week. let's begin. hating ryan lochte has become an olympic sport. he's as welcome in a pool as teddy ken difficulties car. and his biggest sponsors are dropping him like a trump campaign manager. lochte issued a non-apology apology and sat down for an

interview with matt lauer. and he continues to make excuses. what does that remind you of. we are not legally allowed to show you the lochte end view from nbc so we have to do a dramatic reenactment. >> that's why i'm taking full responsibility for it because i overexaggerated that story. if i had never done that, we wouldn't be in this mess. >> as i look back at it now, even thought it was aloud, i should have used twocts, one for personal and one for work related emails. that was a mistake. i'm sorry about that and i take responsibility. kennedy: when you continue to justify your actions by qualifying what you did wrong as somehow being right, that's not an apology. that's a personality disorder.

they weasle around anything close to personal responsibility and continue to make bad excuses. >> i was still intoxicated. i was still under the influence, you know. i swim like a fish, i drink like a fish. i'm not saying being drunk is an excuse. but when you are that hammered and you swallow the worm, things are going to happen. >> i may have short-circuit candidate, and for that i will try to clarify. kennedy: it's not drunk and short-circuiting. it's lying. i think that's part of lochte's problem. the country has been verbally massaged and hood winged by the clintons for so long that our association for tall tales and the fibbers who present them.

we don't want the same from our swimmers. go fast, get wet and cry on the podium. in lochte's case, stop asking. he's as bright as a lump of charcoal. he needs to sing into object security, taking hillary with him for good measure. up next i'll interview two olympic swimmers. obamacare is sputtering down. and i'll probe the depth of dolf ziegler. i'm kennedy.

the washington times reporting the stated department released 15,000 of clinton's emails. powell said he used his state department account to relay classified info and clinton had been using her own private server for a year before he told her about this practice. let's bring it to the up platable party panel. mik issues joined by anthony. and matt shuttle is here from "rhone magazine. he's the editor at large. let's talk about this.

15,000 essentially extra emails. where did they find them? were these things she deleted and the f.b.i. recovered? or was it just like, i foregot to tell you about. 50% of what i claimed to be the entire turnover. >> it's hard to keep track because there were so many department ways f.b.i. director james comey point out hillary clinton lied about this stuff. they said they turned over all the emails and they had not. the f.b.i. reconstructed these. they found them in other places. it's those emails and they have gone back to the state department and judicial watch thank god goes out there and harasses people all the time with freedom of information act lawsuits. we are seeing some initial indications of things like pay to play happening with the clinton foundation. kennedy: i want transparency

before the election. if there is nothing in there worse than anything we have seen i'm totally fine on that and people making a decision. but do not politically shield her from certain doom if that's the case. i think both of these main party candidates are one skin away from being out and gary johnson will be next. hillary clinton said it's like painting of the past republican presidents. so madeleine albright has condoleezza rice, i think kissinger, colin powell and hillary clinton all over to her house. she says all right, darlings, what is the one piece of advice you would bestow on the incoming secretary of state hillary clinton. colin paul with all the places he has been and conflicts he has been party to, he says get your

own private email account, that's the first thing you do. do you believe that? >> i can't believe that. he should pick someone who's a little less beloved. we had that whole weapons of mass destruction thing with colin. i thin think that's forgiven. she should have picked cheney or rumsfeld. kennedy: a secretary as well. a few months ago or year ago would have thought the emails coming out would have been, oh, oh. now they are not going to do anything. kennedy: what if there i a smoking gun? >> still the press don't do anything about it. apparently she is close to death's door and they don't talk about it.

more people are dying around her than william wallace in "brave heart." i'm grandma. i have never seen one picture of her holding it. >> that's the news. kennedy: what do you make of the fact there are 15,000 new emails? she releases 30,000, and says that's right. there were 15,000 more. it's not like 1,500 or 5 or 0. >> it's a problem because they were saying they deleted the forwarded emails that were repetitive or they were recipes, or how do i plug in my fax machine or instructions on how do i get to the bathroom or get to the conference center. then there is 10,000 emails. my concern as a democrat is how

do i defend this? i can't defend stupidity. there are a ton of smoking guns and nobody cares. pay to play is corruption. kennedy: if they can make a correlation between the money coming in and the favors that went out, that could be so proper 3459 i can for her. -- could be so problematic for her. >> she is taking colin powell who should be endorsing her. he's in favor of the iran deal. he would be the guy endorsing her but she is more concerned about throwing him under the bus to make a narrative nobody believes. >> she those that under the bus, everyone else who is defending her. but they deal in power.

i think her bet is even if something goes down, she has never place that supports her that is going to back her up. kennedy: donald trump's promise to deport 11 million illegal immigrants has been his cornerstone but that may be changing. trump responded to allegations he's back peddling. >> we want to couple with a fair but firm answer. we want to couple with something fair. kennedy: how do you deport 11 million people? >> you have to create a police state to do that. think about the logistical challenges of world war ii. it's 100 times the amount of people at least. he was talking about 11 million illegal and 4 million legal u.s. citizen children born here. that's 15 million people to

begin with. so there is no way to do it. we doubled and tripled the size of the border patrol. we'll be knock on doors in new mexico. citizenship. you have got to go on the train. is he flip flopping on this? >> he has to flip-flop. but he already has his base support. the base supporters who bought into this were low-information voters who think you can managically deport 11 million. the president of the united states deported more undocumented than any other president in history. >> i think we should plug the hole first, then start bailing out the water kinds of thing. just make sure people aren't crossing the border then deal

with the 11 million on a slower basis. >> that means you, canada. we'll talk about hillary clinton esurance does auto insurance a smarter way. like their photo claims tool. it helps settle your claim quickly, which saves time, which saves money. and when they save, you save. that's auto and home insurance for the modern world. esurance, an allstate company. click or call. esurance does insurance a smarter way, which saves money. like bundling home and auto coverage, which reduces red tape, which saves money. and when they save, you save. that's home and auto insurance for the modern world. esurance, an allstate company. click or call.

kennedy: donald trump and his campaign has been questioning hillary clinton's health for months suggesting she has a neurologic disorder. madame secretary is taking same squarely at trump's temperament. >> in times of crisis america depends on steady leadership. >> not crap out of them. i know more about isis than the generals do. >> and calm judgment. >> you can tell them to go "f" themselves. i would bomb the shit out of them. ken report amazing thing about that is that could be an ad made by donald trump. there are many people on the republican side saying yes, very good.

rnc chairman reince priebus says trump is maturing as a candidate. the clinton campaign says they can't find anyone to play him in prep debates. i have a suggestion. i think they should use anthony weiner. how good would that be? he's fast web's smart, he's insane. >> he doesn't pause. weiner is all caffeine all the time. trump has a good comics timing and he plays the empty space. kennedy: you could use huma's shock cuff and press the button any time you need him to pause if she would loan it to the campaign. >> a slow anthony weiner?

would that work? >> i don't know who they will find to do that. it has to be somebody friendly within the cam and they would be petrified to treat hillary the thumb treat her at the debate. kennedy: she is surround by sicy sycophants. they are saying you are so good when she had a horrible performance on an interview. no one is going -- a line of people like gladiator. >> the guy who does red eye, he's actually very good. kennedy: that makes too much sense. dose know more about isis than the generals? donald trump? i wasn't sold when he first said that. but with the explanation i said

believe me, put him in charge. >> even though i tend to agree with everything in that ad. or at least i think this temperament is bad for foreign policy. she says to this day that the u.s. intervention in libya was smart power at its best. she has not learned from her mistakes but she gets to play the trump game. >> her entire way to win is trump. but that doesn't mean she is better. i look forward to seeing an ad where she talks about what she value ofs and what she believes in. how can we be against fracking and have a fundraiser with the largest natural gas producer. kennedy: how can she move energy forward in this country when she is trying to demonize coal workers.

it's almost embarrassing when they say donald trump is so bad. i say tell me why she is so good. tell me, i'm an independent voter. tell me why i should vote for her. i'm a woman. i'm not on the hill train. new report worries legalizing pot could make poor people lazy and impact their focus. and impact their focus. kinds of like cheap liquor. there's a lot of places you never want to see "$7.95."

kennedy: companies are pulling out of federal health exchanges. obamacare originally promised more options. so ways happening to obamacare and what can we expect? there is no one better to talk to than jonathon hon hoenig. the president set this as a healthcare marketplace. but when you are down to only one choice, how is that a marketplace? >> it was marketplace in name only, kennedy. whole purpose of obamacare had nothing to do with healthcare. it was to establish healthcare as a right, and by that measure they succeeded. now even the gop talks about wanting to replace obamacare. they have this marketplace, but

it's not really a marketplace. it's based on fours. everybody is forced on obamacare. the doctors, insurance companies, the tanning businesses that are going out of business. and so many insurers are dropping out all together. kennedy: united healthcare lost a billion dollars. aetna, $300 million. what happens to the people who are insured with these companies. if you are in an exchange can you extricate yourself and go top a private company? >> we were all reassured we how much better we would be. we know prices have gone up, care and quality has gone down. and a lot of consumers are scrambling for exactly the

coverage they were promised they wouldn't be able to miss. the big bad gave course isn't going to be the government force, it will be those evil insurance companies. aetna is pulling out and united healthcare is so terrible. they are not at fault her, it's government. kennedy: i understand people who say insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies shouldn't operate for profit. that is their choice. when you are not making any money it means you can't pay people and can't provide the services you promised and your company goes away. i want to talk about the employment options that disappears because of obamacare. 10,000 tanning salons have closed. that means 81,000 lost jobs. >> that was a joke when obamacare was being passed.

they talked about a tanning tax. that's always government's attitude with the gun. what's the big deal it's a couple extra percent and points of tax. you are talking about tens of thousands of businesses and thousands and thousands of jobs that didn't have to be lost. that what's happens when the government gets involved in any part of the economy. before obamacare government acted for 50% of healthcare spending, now it's 100%. i think the days of medical tourism are going to be changing. instead people coming here for healthcare, you will see people going out of the country. kennedy: rich people will be able to afford private insurance. and the doctors who don't take insurance. and poor people will essentially be behold to the same healthcare system in the failing va.

kennedy: the philosopher morrissey said every day is like sunday because monday sucks. this is the "topical storm," topic number one. canine superiority has reached new heights. a sickly golden retriever had his front arms am to you 8ed and re -- amputated and replaced with human limbs. it's true.

now he can use those apen damages to eat pasta. broccoli. he loves broccoli. it's so green and yummy. my producer marty says i can't lie to you because the dog didn't have his arms amputated. that sweet dog would love to flip marty the bird, but he can't. topic number two. member flea from the red hot chili peppers? his musical career is surging forward to unknown heights. specifically becoming a guitar tutor to cocoa the gorilla.

unreal. >> think is the greatest they can that ever happened. this is the best day i will never forget in my life. kennedy: why is he laying down? is he in an opium den? all right. though cocoa may not be professional quality yet, she'll get there. with a little luck and hard work she can join a professional ape band one day. that band of chimps is four times better than nickel back, and that is being generous. topic number three. this was sent to us on twitter by a fan boy named matt welch.

you know how much i love hip reading. take it away. >> i think batman and the joker are like old people, stiff and contrary. i read in this good story, are you cooking chops? >> this really sucks. all you people that are here tonight. shout out to my girl, my girlies. >> i can't drink when the guy who brings the water for everyone got all his clothes at the dump. >> who ought to run his country? i saw her open tv. i would like to report a dragon or two. kennedy: you can see our whole thing on our facebook page. guess what i just said. watch. i said olive juice.

[bleep] or something like that. topic number four. there are a few moments in life when you get to experience overwhelming joy that brings salt to tears like being in the front row of a back street concert in 1999. but a.j. doesn't need to be involved. all he need is a trip to his fast it amusement park. >> look, look, we are there. what does it say? >> legoland. oh, my god. oh, my god! oh, my god! that's so sweet. that's slightly better than the family trip they took to the family morgue. his fiery love for legos fanned the flames.

here he is now having taken his obsession to the extreme. thank god they canceled their trip to the furbie factory. portland, oregon is one of the most whimsical places on earth. but that can be problematic as more and more hipsters vie for attention with one another. it drives them toward ever higher levels of absurdity. see if you can spot the guy looking for attention in this video. do you see him there? he's the guy on the bottom rit-hand corner of the screen. if you still have hard time identify him. he's playing flaming bagpipes.

kennedy: welcome back. a new study from the non-profit think tank rand corporation say it's the silly old poor people smoke disproportionately more. she warns if legalized the poor would spend too' of their income on weed and lack the focus necessary to hold a steady job. should we keep the status quo of locking users in cages for their own good instead? i think that's a great alternative. how insanely snobby and out of touch are these people who did the survey which is all confirmation bias.

>> they are trying to induce white liberal guilt by saying you fancy upper class people who support legalization, you are not thinking of the poor. you could do the same thing if you study 40 ouncers it's not the rich smoking 40 ouncers. as you go on in life you realize you can't do that and be a member of society. they are trying to say this is a two decade study. we only legalized recreational marijuana for two years. they are pretending there is an entire clasp people it's a clown show. ken were you can't study something that's classified the way marijuana is. the way it's scend, there is one

lab in the country that does research on pot. and they use crappy pot that is not indicative of what's out there. it's not enough because it's so easy to get bad information out there if you don't have any way of getting complete information. >> i don't know why people are so freaked out about pot still in this day and age. it's 2016, right? i don't know why people are still so crazy like it's some wacky drug that you will be throwing yourself off a rooftop. also, young people or poor people smoking weed, legalizing it they will not spending a much money? what does that mean? >> should we keep it in a black market? you can get arrested and have to hire attorneys and get stuck in the system? >> you are going to find, you are going to buy it regardless.

>> you just hit the nail on the head. this is about crime. i think we are getting ready for a new wave of crime era bill. the the libertarians are work with progressies, shutting down private prisons, and community ripped apart by the crime bill targeting people of color smoking or dealing weed. kennedy: if you talk about how expensive is and the cost of it, old people are seeing some great benefit from medical marijuana and they are able to get off expensive drugs saving medicare money. >> if they want to buy expensive drugs, that's probably part of it. in a new study, a 6-year-old young by-year-old girl and a cat

and a dog were all abandoned separately in a busy new york city park to see who would be rescued first. someone aided the little girl in less than 4 minutes, then the pug, then the cat. after 45 minutes no one even attempted to help the young boy. this is so crazy to me. who would you rescue first? >> the girl, for sure. then the boy, for crying out loud. do you remember after 9/11 all the people, think about all those poor dogs. we just lost 3,000 human beings. can we just not talk about the dogs for a week. kennedy: who would rescue a cat. >> why so popular on the internet. i wouldn't touch -- i wouldn't touch the kids. i wouldn't even try to rescue them.

because in today's real life society i would probably ends up getting in trouble. kennedy: and it was only women who rescues any of them. >> stranger danger. that's what this is all about. coming up i'll talk to swim champions about the olympics. ryan lochte and possibly jaws. get ready to know dolf zigger better than you ever feared.

kennedy: olympic swimmers have been getting a lot of attention. but that should not overshadow connor dwyer. mia won two golds in this year's games. she also won a silver and a bronze. they join me now. welcome. thank you for representing our country bully. and what an incredible yiemplet s. swimming has had at these olympic games. who ever thought beijing could be topped after michael phelps. connor, you were drink with ryan lochte that night. is there another story behind the story we don't know. >> i wasn't with them all night.

i was in taxi with them and went somewhere else earlier in the night. kennedy: did you hear about it first. >> i didn't see them until the brunch in the morning, and by then the story had broken. kennedy: do you think it world is being too hash and ryan. he lost sponsors and people are calling for him to be stripped of his medals. >> that seems harsh to strip him of his medals. i have known ryan for a long time. he's a good guy. it's tough to see him in this position. i'm hoping he will bounce back from it. kennedy: how do you bounce back? what do you tell him? >> i think he tried by getting on interviews and telling his side of the story, and just tell the truth. kennedy: mia, we have seen olympicians, 31, 32, 36, getting

medal after medal. you are only 23 and you are retired. you said swimming is just too boring. which i thought was the most wonderfully honest answer. people march recommend how much you train. what is a day like? >> so it's every day getting up at 5 about 35, going to practice for two hours. coming home, eating, napping. watching maybe a little food network. eat something more and going back to practice. coming home, cooking again and eating and going to bed. it's not like super glamorous. but it pays off when you get to experience the olympics. but i'm ready for some new daily are you teens. kennedy: you went to stanford. you have a big job waiting for you. you and your husband moved to atlanta. can you take a break and get back in the pool?

>> it becomes harder and harder the longer you are in the swimming world to break out of that and do something else. i feel like i'm getting out at a great time. and, yeah, you might be able to come back. people certainly do. we'll see -- i don't think that's in the cards for me. kennedy: we'll see what happens. i loved your honesty about the whole thing. do you think that this was the most impressive olympics ever. and rio got such a bad rap beforehand. the americans were super proud because this medal haul was unprecedented our lifetime. was rio better than you expected and what were you fearing? >> there was a lot of media about the scariness of rio, what could happen when you go over there. but overall they did an

incredible job of hosting the games. we maybe had a bus that was a little late. i thought they did a perfect job hosting the games. kennedy: are you going to tokyo in 2020. >> i'm going to start training for tokyo, yes. that would be my third. kennedy: keep going. that's what i say. the two things that really stood out to a lot of people, gymnastics of course, what those gymnasts were able to do with their bodies. >> they killed it. kennedy: swimming as well. you see people who have gotten faster even without speed suits. and it goes to show you what you can tap into. thank you, guys for being here. coming up, get excited about my new segment.

ken maybe that's a wrestling term. >> maybe in a world where gender didn't happen, i feel hillary could take it. kennedy: i would ask you if that arouses you? >> because you are poor at per accepting. if you had to swath the bottom of your body with an animal what animal would you choose in. >> the pks uma. >> if you could overturn one law, would what it be? >> not being a marijuana user myself. >> nor am i. >> i feel like we could be -- there are so many positives. it slowly will happen. but to overturn it and it making money. hike do you with cigarettes and everybody wins. kennedy: thank you for joining us for one milkshake. two straws.
