facing administratively with the president on immigration. >> president and ceo of the council of la raza, thank you as always. that's all for now, i'll see you back tomorrow at 4:00 p.m. eastern. the ed show is coming up next. good evening, americans and welcome to the ed show live from new york. i'm ready to go, let's get to wooerk. >> beneath these streets lies 100,000 barrels of oil. >> north dakota's oil boom. >> we're going to be the richest state per capita a. >> one of the richest oil booms in history. >> it's the wild, wild west. >> i will not sacrifice my family and i will not sacrifice our ranch. >> good to have you was tonight, folks, thanks for watching, the first person i ever heard say

elections have consequences, i was doing a radio interview with barbara boxer back in 2004 and it was just before the bush-kerry election and she was concerned about bush being re-elected, weren't we all? she said, you know, elections have consequences, and then of course the consequences are that this man put a couple of extremists on the supreme court and now it plays all the way down to the local level. as a matter of fact today we saw two courts decide differently on the affordable care act. now we fast forward to citizens united as we have seen this conservative supreme court change the landscape of elections in this country. and the bottomline is that these guys, and some ladies have said that it's okay to throw as much money at an election as you want, if your corporation just have at it. so this is filtered down from

big corporations to the most what some might wall nationally the most insignificant races in the country, north dakota. tonight we're going to show you how big oil is taking over small races in america, drill, baby, drill. they might even rename is state that you see the state of north dakota is in the midst of a massive oil boom, a lot of the country has heard about it, but do you really know what kind of boom it is? you can see the natural gas flares from space. that's right. minneapolis got the lights turned on, so does chicago and denver. what's that? that's willisston, north dakota, out in the middle of damned near nowhere. in march, this year, 2014, over 30 million barrels of crude oil were pumped out of the ground, it's a record month for oil production t record month means what? massive profits for the oil companies and there are 270 oil

companies doing business in the state of north dakota. this sngtd cutting it for the oil tycoons. oh, no, no, no. you see, they want more. the oil industry wants to drill 35,000 new wells in the state of north dakota over the next 15 years. break it down, that's 2,333 wells a year. that's a whole lot of drilling and that's a hell of a lot of fracking, in the state of north dakota, there's only three people who can stand in the way of these new wells. they have a thing called the north dakota industrial commission, the commission is made up of the republican governor, the republican attorney general, and the republican ad commissioner. this group of republicans and i would venture to say that they're not hard righties, but they know where the money is, they're responsible for issuing

all of the drilling permits. oh, you're starting to put it together now, big oil is having no problem getting permits from these guys, drill, baby, drill. meanwhile, there is one democrat in north dakota who favors limiting the permits and is asking the question, what the heck's going on here? his name is ryan taylor, the democrats believe in this guy, he's running for the north dakota agriculture commissioner. he's got a pretty good shot at winning, this guy is a fourth generation family ranch and former united states senate, he's a landowner advocate. taylor knows he needs to balance the drilling and the regulation to protect the state's agricultural environment and environment totally. you see, taylor recently stated north dakota needs to focus on more than just oil. >> there's a connection between oil and agriculture.

they can travel the tracks of success together. or they can glide like the soybeans and crude oil. it's a hardship for answers. with better management, more thoughtful planning, our two top industries can co-exist successfully. without better management, and a free for all, boons can harm agriculture and the industries that were there before the boom began. >> taylor's point is current north dakota ad commissioner doug guring. guring has one thing on his side billing oil and a lot more money. you might say a lot more money? goehring has raised a lot more. over 87 grand, in a state with

just over 7,000 people, that's a lot of money. but in north dakota, you can count on $87,000 buying a whole lot of radio time and it's huge. goehring has received money from ten oil companies and their executives. there's no doubt the oil companies are behind this guy because he'll rubber stamp the permits, with the rubber stamp comes risk. the national guard was dispatched to the air, the fire could take days to burn out. just part of the business, right? luckily no one was killed. meanwhile, the lack of regulation is literally killing people in north dakota and the environment. that's right, killing people. a new study finds that oil workers in that state are being kimmed at 5 times the national rate, fatalities on the job in north dakota, more than doubled from 2007 to 2012, rising from

25 to 65 deaths a year. now unfortunately, news reports of spills are common place in the state as well. in 2013, north dakota reported 139 pipeline leaks but there were also 29 is other spills. plus 300 oil spills went unreported in the state over the past two years. ive there was ever a time for more regulation or at least for somebody to step up and say what are we doing and are we going to drill everywhere and issue permits everywhere, it's probably now. ryan taylor has plans to make it happen. he's put forward a specific list of new regulations including music flow meters to oil monitor leaks. there should be no surprise that the oil industry and their opponents should be opposed to monitors on that system. the oil companies want to drill in theodore roosevelt national

park. see the park covers 110 square miles of pristine grass lands in the bad lands, it's beautiful country. it's unspoiled, but it might not be. teddy road velociosevelt loved of the country. he greatly expanded the national parks system and preserving that environment on his agenda. i wonder what the former republican president would view his party's stand on the environment, where would teddie roosevelt stand on climate change? teddy roosevelt was against corporations squashing out the little guy, the little guy could get squashed out, meaning the landowners, not everybody wants drilling everywhere in that part of the country. but if big oil can come in and

they can throw a few extra bucks at the ad commissioner's race, they can definitely seal up the industrial commission of the governor, the attorney general and the ad commissioner and they'll be able to get the permits they want, and they'll reach their goal of 35,000 new oil wells drilled in the next 15 years. you see citizen s united as brought us down to the prairie where there's a lot of folks. want to know what you think of tonight's question, would teddy ro roosevelt be ashamed of his republican party? for more, let me bring in reuters oil and gas correspondent earningest shider. how important is this race for the oil industry, the industry of oil, where you have got 270

companies doing business in north dakota, they want a stamp of approval to go wherever they want to go, even the national park lands, how important is this race? >> weal, the agricultural commissioner is one of three votes on the industrial commission and if ryan tiller were elected, yes, he could be outvoted by the other two. but if he would get permission to those in the state who feel like perhaps their concerns are losing out to the oil and gas industry right now. >> when you were there, what kind of a pulse do you get of the people? >> i think the people are proud that they are helping to support north american energy independence. they say if we can produce it here we like that. but the seat is an agricultural bell weather, it produces tons of wheat and corn we use in the state. just recently the -- economic impact from the ag industry. so that shows you how big ag is

for years and years. the more -- we want our farm land to remain. that's what you see. >> what kind of regulations do some of the north dakota residents want? and what ryan taylor is talking about, is this viewed as radical? restrictive? >> what you're seeing is an interesting tension in the state of north dakota right now. typically we think middle of american republicans as very pro land rights pro oil drilling but you're starting to see those two tearing at the seams in north dakota. landowners are saying, hey, wait, i do support the oil industry, but i need my land to be protected. if you want to build a pipeline through, you've got to reclaim the land. you've got to make sure there's no pipeline spills. but there are those who want drill baby drill. >> good to have you with us and i appreciate your time, let's turn now to former north dakota senator byron dorgan.

senator, good to have you with us tonight. you know this subject well, does north dakota need for regulation the way it's all unfolding? >> it's interesting, you're talking about ryan taylor. i know ryan very well, he's a friend of mine, and he's been criticized for not supporting oil drilling. he just wants more oversight. i hope ryan wins that race, he's not anti-energy development. neither am i, i have always felt that the production of oil and gas -- foreign countries, so that's good, but you always have to have effective regulatory oversight when you do these things. >> senator, do you think your state needs 35,000 new wells over the next 15 years? >> that's a lot of wells, a lot of new wells, but a lot of wells, i don't know how many

drilling permits should be al w allowed. can i just go from the lom to the national for a moment? you put your finger on something really important. that is the citizen's united case, it's not just north dakota, it's all across this country, it's an unbelievable avalanche. in terms of millions of dollars, yesterday there was an article in the paper that said that sheldoned aal son is thinking about 100 million dollars that he'll put into senate races across the country. this is ruining the political system in our country. >> well this race in north dakota for the ag commissioner is rather tight right now. at the end of the day, it looks like doug goehring is going to run away with it. what is your take on that? >> i don't know the details in the fund raising in the races out there, i don't, but i know ryan taylor and know what he stands for. and if there are people who are believing that he stands for

shutting down energy development, they're just wrong. this guy's a smart, by the way he's been a former state senator, he's smart, effective, thoughtful and honest, and he would like there to be effective oversight that is smart for the state's future. >> what about the fracking that's taking place in that part of the country? do you believe that the oil industry has made the case that residents and people in that region have nothing to worry got? >> listen, i have studied energy and i worked on energy a lot, we have been fracking for some 50 years in this country, this is the first time that we have ever combined horizontal drilling with fracking, but with proper well boring and proper oversight, there is not a problem with fracking, i know some deal the other way, but my view is we have been doing it for a long, long time, and if you have proper regulatory oversight, it's going to be fine. >> is there going to be proper regulatory -- only second to texas and beating some opec

countries as well. on this scale. and the fracking has made a lot of people nervous, and it could compromise the water supply in the state with the missouri river. isn't this quite a gamble? >> look, there are some down sides, there's tremendous up side to producing new energy in this country, for this country, but, you know, about i think six years ago, i suggested the state legislative leaders and the govz for and others that they needed to have a special session of the legislature to get ahead of all the infrastructure problems that will come from this kind of development, and i was told to take a hike, they said you're in the u.s. senate, not in state government. but the fact is there are very significant infrastructure problems, and the state is way behind, not ahead of them. and so i think that's why these races having debate and discussion about these issues is very important. >> is the oil interest in north dakota and in that part of the country to strong there really

isn't much difference between the republicans and the democrats? >> i don't know that i'm capable of answering that. i don't think that's the case. look, any time there's a big industry dominant in an area, they're going to have a significant or profound amount of influence, that's not something that's entirely new. what is new is that washington and a lot of others that surround this political system, big money in ways that you can't identify the source. that's a national problem, that's a big national problem that has to get fixed. the supreme court ought to hang its head on that. >> the big corporations are sure paying attention to the small races because they want the permits to do whatever they want to do. remember to answer tonight's question there on the bottom of the screen, share -- on facebook, like us on facebook, thank you for that. coming up, after a weekend of protest, detroit residents will have water restored for a

in the midst of the one of the worst droughts in decades. >> am i going to jail because i have brown on my lawn? >> a drought conscious california couple has mow problems.

>> they thought they were trying to avoid violations by saving water. >> would you please stay off my grass? >> now they fear they could be facing violations by saving water. >> they want our lawn to be very green within 6 0 days or we'll get fined 500. >> i got a better idea. >> the grass is always greener if you paint it. >> in today's top trender, road warriors. your iraq war costs the united states 7.1 trillion. republicans had literally no problem with it. >> republicans paved a wood to war. >> he didn't call for arming the ukraine so they can defend themselves. >> they are moving troops into some areas that are threatened by vladimir putin. >> congress is about to i prove the --- >> republicans just don't seem to care. >> no one in congress wants to vote for a tax increase on something like gasoline.

>> joining me tonight on the ed show, senator barbara boxer of california, senator, good to have you with us tonight. >> thank you. >> let's talk about roads first, republicans just can't wait to do intervention in ukraine, they don't care how much we spend, but on the domesticside, they're tight with the dollar, the house passed a short-term fix for the highway funding trust fund, why won't you support that in its current version, what do you have against that? where are you? >> here's the problem, we need to fund roads, bridges, and transportation systems for a multiyear period. i say six years. and my committee, the environment of public works, on a bipartisan basis, ed, which is rare, not a dissenting vote and we have on that committee, you know, james inhoff and bernie sanders and we have jeff sessions and sheldon white house and we have senator vitter and me and others. we decided it's very important

to fund transportation and we voted out a six-year bill. the next stop, we have to fund it. and that's not in the jurisdiction of my committee and it went over to the senate fans committee and the house ways and means committee and the house ways and means committee acted and they acted on a package that is the worst possible thing. they shored up the trust fund instead of doing it for the end of this year, so we could act this year and give some certainty, they did until may, which is right up against the next construction season and they use gimmicks like pension smoothing, which we have used that before, but you know what? this is giving the companies another five years where they don't have to fund their employees pensions to keep the highway trust fund going for a few months. ed, you talk about all the challenges we're facing in the world that, we can't control, we can control this. >> no doubt. and senator, your thoughts on the gas tax, it hasn't been

raised in over 20 years. >> yes. >> is this part of the problem? >> well, it's definitely part of the problem, because what happens is, our bridges are aging, you know we have 70,000 bridges that are deficient, a quarter of our bridges, more than that even are over 50 years old and speaking from my viewpoint, you get a little older, you need a little more maintenance, you know, i think that's certainly true of our infrastructure, the bottom line here is, that what the house did is a very sad situation, they kicked the can down the road, i know that's cliche, but that's what they did. instead of dealing with it, which is what we support, a shorter term extension, we get to the lame duck after the election is behind us and have some guts. now you want to talk about the gas tax, it was started as my history reading goes by herbert hoover, then it was used for highways by dwight eisenhower,

then it was raised by ronald reagan, george herbert walker bush, bill clinton. there's no reason why we can't look at this gas tax, a few cent also make a difference. there's 700,000 unemployed construction workers. those workers would fill seven super bowl stadiums. we need to put people to work, fix the highways, the bridges, fix the transit situation, it's in our control, we just need a little courage. >> some political ramificationless too would make the president look good and they don't want that to happen. the state department says their intelligence suggests that malaysia airlines flight 17 was brought down by a ukrainian separatists and they have no direct evidence that the russian government was involved. as a member of the committee on foreign relations, what do you

think our response should be? >> i think you ratchet up the sanctions on putin, we know that those separatists are only in business because of vladimir putin, let's be clear, it's pretty obvious, i these the europeans should just recognize they have got to look towards what's right here, i mean look how many people from the netherlands -- >> they're not being tough enough and i know their hearts are breaking because so many europeans went down on that plane. >> so what should they do? >> they should work with the president and ratchet up these sanctions so they can fight, fight, fight. they need to stop the fighting over there. there is a government over there, and it has to be respected. they had an election and that's what ought to be front and center. >> so you think the president's so far out on an island, he needs more support from europe? >> europe should be taking the lead. the fact is, this is in europe's

backyard. america we can push, and he's going to do more sanctions from this country, our own country, that's clear. but the europeans, i think they're coming along slowly, sloechlt the separatists did it, we know that, and we know who supports the separatists and we know who has persuasion and power over to separatists, it's vladimir putin and they need to suffer from some sanctions hire and stop what they're doing. >> you want the president to go further on sanctions? >> i do. the president wants to go further on sanctions as well. and i think it's a question of europe getting some backbone, i understand they need rj. but joum somewhat? putin needs them to buy that energy. they have to come out there and fight for what's right. >> senator boxer, no maintenance needed, you're perfect. >> very cute. >> don't change anything you are

perfect. senator barbara boxer, coming up a 15-day moratorium, over 7,000 detroit residents, who kind of like having the water on, well they had it shut off for late payments. plus rick perry's political theater, brings the national guard to the border. what's this all about that's all live next on the ed show, stay with us. ♪

wants to know, if the republicans somehow manage to take obama care away, do you think that will be the end of them politically? first of all, there were two rulings today, it's kind of like the wizards of oz, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. there's going to be rulings, legal wrangling back and forth for years to come. but the new england journal of medicine pointed out that 20 million people have been affected by the affordable care act. that's a political movement, that's something that i think the republicans don't want to mess with. change is here and it's happening. and so they're not going to take away obama care. we're on the road to change and it's for the better. rapid response panel is next. better than expected earnings reports from a number of companies helps boost stocks, the dow rising 61 points, the s&p up 10, closing out another record while the nasdaq gains 31.

"f". the performance marque from lexus. welcome back to the ed show, thanks for watching tonight. nine people were arrested friday as more than 1,000 people took to the streets of detroit to protest the city's sweeping water shutoffs that were taking place. on monday the city announced a 15-day moratorium of shutting off water for people who were behind on their water bills. water department deputy director darrell latimer said the 15 days will be used to, quote, educate

customers on how to cure their overdue bills and avoid shutoffs. the city says that more than 50% of its 17 0,000 residential accounts are 60 days or $150 delinquent. with over 43 million owed for the month of june, as a result over 15,000 households have had their water shut off. it's important to point out, roughly 38% of detroiters live in poverty. 23% are unemployed, the median household income in detroit is less than $27,000 a year, almost half the national median household income. in the midst of this crisis, the workers of droitds are being forced to make some pretty tough choices, on monday, the former and -- sizable pension cuts as part of detroit's bankruptcy plan if approved.

general retirees who get an annual pension of 19,0$19,000 t $20,000 would get a 4.5% pension cut and lose annual inflation adjustments. retired police and firefighters who receive an average of $32,000 a year would lose a portion of their an yul cost of living raise. it looks like all's fair in the nation's largest municipal bankruptcy unfolding in detroit. joining me tonight on our rapid response panel, detroit homeowner and community activist lee gattis, also with us, dr. wendell anthony, before we hear from you gentlemen tonight, i just want to point out that we just reported and saw today the stock market close at a record number. 17,113 -- private sector job rate in this country.

we have got an unemployment rate of 6.7%. in june, sales of existing homes in this country was up 2.6%. what's wrong? we can't turn the water on in detroit? lee, average overdue bills are sitting at $540, what help is being made available to these folks who are struggling to pay the bills, if n't a solution to problem. we have to remember the detroit taxpayers paid for and billed a water system for detroit that everybody else is attached to. so the 4 million people in the suburbs that surround detroit that depend on that system are being subsidized by the people in detroit. and the people in my community, of bagley community which make

up 550,000 house holds, those people of average age are 65 plus. so those people who are dependent on pensions that put them below the poverty line. >> should everybody have the water turned on whether they pay the bill or not? >> if people want to go look for jobs i these they need to take a shower and brush their teeth and they may need the water on. i think we should do what the u.n. said and they shouldn't pay more than 3% of their income. i think the water rates should be reasonable. for some reason, we went to this radar system, rfid system for water metering and everybody's bill spiked. i don't think the state of michigan and ford field are disputing their bills and they're not being shut off, i don't these we should be shutting off seniors in their

homes over $150. >> reverend, the naacp has filed a class-action suit against the city saying that the water shutoffs are racially motivated, explain that to us a little bit here. what's happening? >> that's in the process of occurring, it, right now--naacp and several other organizations, that are looking into how we're going to deal with this constitutionally and legally. it's interesting, ed, i'm here in las vegas with the national conference of the naacp. the state and the city and to do something to mitigate the shudoffs. we believe there should be an immediate moratorium on shutoffs.

there needs to be a primary look at this, going with 90, possibly to a year so that we can get the proces process, i had a 98-year-old woman call me to say they shut her water off. she had to pay to get it back on. a 98-year-old retiree who they have been misbilling here. >> they've been misbilling her? >> she's been pairing at a rate she should not be paying. they don't know their customer base. they bill to the address, they don't bill to the individual. >> is government as much the problem here reverend as anything else because they're trying to get rid of it to private size this whole thing? >> there needs to be an increased water affordable

program, not that people should not pay their bills, but you have not put enough money into the problem. the people can come to the table and adequately take care of the water that they need. the government has to come to the table, governor rick snyder, who through this process has created a situation by virtue of the water authority that does not have control of the water department. it's a separate entity now. we need to be in control of that, and the governor cannot hide behind this and not come to the table. folks that need water can't get it, we got water and can't get it. >> this is an issue of them trying to depopulate our neighborhoods from the indigenous residents. we see a wholesale shift of burden, the tax burtd to the

poorest people and the most vulnerable in detroit, while other people get land for a dollar, other people's tax bills get tripled and quadruples, we ask all of those out there that don't wait for this to come to your neighborhood, get involved now, because if this was happening to your neighborhood, detroit would be there fighting with you. >> on thursday of this coming week, there's going to be a convoy from canada coming to detroit with water. >> good to have you both of you with us tonight. coming up, scott walker's new attack ad. we're right back. if hiring plumbers, carpenters

in doubt, what do they do? always send in the troops. perry thinks we're too good a country to hold children in detention centers although it's fine to push them back into the horrific conditions they came from. of course the governor isn't interested in tackling the broken system. he's interested in a political show, some real good theater. if rick per ary thinks his political theater is worth an ovation, he can keep on pretending.

welcome back to "the ed show." this is the story for the folk who is take a shower after work. wisconsin governor scott walker is using the karl rove philosophy and strategy. walker is attacking where he's weak. walker is target thing his democratic opponent mary burke and her family's bicycle business. there is a television ad accusing the company, trek, of outsourcing jobs to china. >> mary, mary, quite contrary, how does your fortune grow? by making millions of dollars sending jobs overseas that could have been done in wisconsin to countries where women and children might work up to 12 hoyer hours a day earning only $2 an hour. >> only $2 an hour? interesting. >> to be continued. >> maybe there's more. >> so much more. >> trek was started by richard burke, mary's father in

waterloo, wisconsin. her brother john burke is the president of the company. trek manufactures more bikes in the united states of america than any other bike company. it makes products in germany, holland as well as in china. john burke told the milwaukee journal sentinel the chinese workers are employed by outside companies, not trek. however he didn't know how much they were paid in an hour. he said trek inspects the contractors' plants to ensure workers are not mistreated. scott walker's attacks are hypocritical. governor went from promising job creation during the 2010 campaign to outsourcing jobs from his own state. reports last week showed at least two companies that received money from walker's wisconsin economic development corporation shipped american job ares to foreign countries and also contributed to walker's campaign. ruth conif is editor in chief of "the progressive" magazine. she joins me. at this hour the milwaukee

journal sentinel is reporting the wisconsin republican party has filed a complaint against trek bicycle. they claim that trek was dishing out corporate money in helping out burke in response to this television ad that's been put out by the walker campaign. it's also pointed out that walker, more than half his money has come from outside wisconsin. two-thirds of mary burke's money has come from within the state. donald trump and sheldon adelson are also contributing to walk. -- walker. once again, wisconsin has it all, ruth. how will this play out in the badger state? >> well, it's a great story, ed. it's interesting that the wisconsin governor's race has come down to a battle over outsourcing jobs. one of the things that happened today is the wisconsin republican party is retweeting senator tammy baldwin's tweets talking about outsourcing and supporting the senate democrats' bill to bring jobs home.

it's sort of ironic. i contacted baldwin's staff. they said they were glad to receive are support from scott walker and republicans in wisconsin for the senate democrats' push to end outsourcing. the great irony, of course, is this ad that walker did, the ad you showed is $175,000 for a week to show the ad. it went up, not coincidentally, basically to bury the news last week that walker's wisconsin economic development corporation he created to replace the state's commerce department has given millions of taxpayer dollars from wisconsinites to companies that laid off wisconsin residents and sent their jobs overseas. that's a much more significant example of outsourcing. in fact, tammy baldwin who the republican party is retweeting is supporting legislation to end tax breaks for corporations that outsource job which is exactly what walker and his agency have been doing. >> trek bicycle, from what i am told, hasn't taken any tax dollars to ship jobs overseas.

>> that's an important distinction. >> it is important. from the standpoint that the people who contributed to walker's campaign got taxpayer dollars and they shipped jobs overseas. does walker have a right to go down this road on mary burke's family business? >> well, look, all outsourcing is bad. it's true in 2013 trek sent 15 to 20 jobs, folks who made lug nuts and mountain bike frames in waterloo, sent the jobs to china. that's not great. it's pretty small compared with the level of outsourcing the citizens, the taxpayers of wisconsin have been financing thanks to walker's economic development corporation, 60% of whose funds went to walker campaign contributors. >> wrae. >> this is a smart political move on walker's part. this is swift boating. he's taking his opponent's greatest strength, her private sector experience and the largest employer among bicycle manufacturers of the united

states folks. he's attacking that and burying his own outsourcing news. >> no doubt this is a tight race. the latest polling shows that. great to have you with us. that's "the ed show." i'm ed schultz. "politics nation" with reverend al sharpton starts now. >> good evening, ed. thanks for tuning in. i'm live tonight in washington, d.c. tonight's lead is the president's health care law headed back to the supreme court? two conflicting federal appeals court rule arings today concerning a key question about the president's health care law. does the federal government have the right to subsidize health insurance for millions of americans? this isn't a hypothetical point. this is an urgent issue that could apply to 4.5 million people who are right now receiving money for health in
