in but blythe danner is a woman in her 70s, she is a widow and decides to re-enter the dating pool is probably about the bravest act anybody can undertake. >> i'll see you in my dreams. i'll look for it. david and stephanie, thank you. that is "all in" for this evening. the rachel maddow show starts right now. >> good evening. and happy friday. and thank you for staying with us for the next hour. again frog in my throat i'm sorry. but more suspense in the show. my show might give out at any moment. in which case then what will happen. you have to stick around to see, right? voice notwithstanding, a good show. interesting news out of the escaped convict story. and late breaking story tonight. and scary sea creature news. and the latest hella ballou fight in congress which is interesting and unresolved so a lot coming up particularly for a friday night. but we begin here in poland the

capital is warsaw lovely this time of year. and if you are in warsaw and have a fancy meal the most expensive meal in town you would probably end up at this restaurant. it is the one there with the lights around all three sides over the door on both sides. see that. i am a lot of different ethnicities and i'm a heinz 57 and polish is not one of them and we called one of our producers polish cousins, cousin donna and asked us if she would leave us a voice mail telling us how to pronounce the name of this extensive restaurant in warsaw and here is how cousin donna said is how you say the name of this restaurant. [ speaking in a foreign language ] >> so one polish person who grew up in elizabeth, new jersey said it that way. she is probably right.

it is also possible she could be pulling our leg. she might have just swore at you in polish which i don't know. and i think that is all very important to you. can we play it one more time. [ speaking in a foreign language ] >> in any way, at this restaurant, very fancy restaurant in warsaw somebody we still don't know who, placed a hidden microphone inside of the dining room and through that microphone they tape recorded conversations that took place between high level polish government officials while they were verying expensive meals at this very expensive restaurant. i mean bottles of wine at this restaurant that cost $1,200 each and part of the scandal is government ministers were eating spectacular meals and charging it all to taxpayers. but the real meat of the scandal is about what these government officials were caught talking

about on these tapes. they were from the ruling party that was in a power for almost a decade and from an american perspective and the polish party has been very supportive of the united states. they have been very aggressive about maintaining a strong relationship between poland and the united states even on stuff that is a hard call supporting george w. bush and his invasion of iraq. so one of the things that scandalous about the conversations caught on tape in this restaurant is that government ministers from that very pro-american government turns out in private while they are drinking $1,200 bottles of wine talk tons of smack about the united states and tons of smack about poland going out of the way to have a good relationship with the united states. the foreign ministers at the

time of the dinner he said having the good relationship with the united states is bull -- not bull bucky, but worse than worthless for poland to have a good relationship with the united states and he said we'll get into a relationship with the -- because we got -- i don't know how to bleep that and let you still know what he said. we gave the americans a thing that rimes with snow mob. we think everything is super because we gave the americans a snow mob. losers he said complete losers. so he is the foreign minister. he is in charge of the foreign policy and in charge of maintaining the excellent relationship with the united states but privately he said it is worthless, bull complete

losers he said. he was foreign minister when he said that. he has since become the equivalent of speaker of the house which is a powerful job in the country's government. but then these statements came out and they are explosive and he had to offered to in disgrace. four top ministers from the government and this guy, now speaker of the house, had to all offered to in disgrace because of the tapes from this restaurant. they all had to offered to. this week they all resigned on wednesday of this week. including that guy who said that the relationship between poland and the u.s. was worthless. he resigned on wednesday. and then on thursday jeb bush went to poland and met with him. the day after he had to -- again, what this guy said about the united states being bull and worthless and he said poland is giving americans a snow mob, complete losers the day after he has to offered to for saying that, jeb bush goes to poland to do a big photo on shaking hands

with him and meeting him and smiles all around. on this trip jeb bush was asked if that wasn't kind of an odd choice given what the guy had resigned for the day before this meeting. >> met this morning with the now former speaker, who was caught on tape saying some not so nice things about the u.s. did you consider canceling that and more specifically in your conversation did you get to clarify his feelings about the u.s. because it seems to be -- >> in our conversation it was clear to me he is a strong believer in strong ties with the united states. >> actually the guy is on tape saying strong ties to the united states are worthless. literally worthless. remember when george w. bush looked at putin and said he could see into his eyes and see what a good guy he was. he saw into his soul.

and this guy said having a relationship with the united states is like one aspect of oral sex as if it was a bad thing. this guy was not subtle about how worthless and terrible he thinks it is for poland to have a strong relationship with the united states. >> he is a supporter of the united states and a friend of the united states and i felt like it was more than appropriate to meet with him. >> but he just resigned the day before you met with him for all of the things that he head is the -- he said about the united states. that didn't come up. this is weird. this is supposed to be jeb bush's chest pounding tough america, take no guff tour and he take this is meeting and does this photo on with this guy who just got caught on tape calling the united states losers and worthless. he meets with that actual guy, the day after he has to offered to for saying all of that about the united states and jeb bush is taking the whole thing as actually i think he really likes us.

>> he is a strong believer in strong ties with the united states. >> which he literally calls worthless to have those ties. so that happened. we have a great, strong free press in this country. it is really something worth being proud of an american. the beltway press is sometimes less slightly awesome than the press at large. today some people said that the shining star example of the epitome of what is wrong with the beltway press was this. the lead supposedly political reporter for bloomberg politics mark hall perrin announcing this week he is coleading a pilates press with mitt romney wife with wealthy donors that are tending a -- who are attending a sum at

one of their houses in utah. i don't know anything about pilates and if one of the poses is helding their -- holding their feet to the fire. does pilates have poses. some said this is the sign of the apocalypse. this news of the hard-hitting political recorder -- reporter in pilates is what is wrong with the press these days. but would you like to suggest this as a contender. after jeb bush goes to poland to meet the guy who just resigned the day before for talking lurid swearing smack about the united states and how worthless and worse than worthless the united states is jeb bush goes and meets with that guy the day after he has to offered to for saying that and he said i think the guy seemed like he liked us. and the beltway press -- look at the headline in politico today. the beltway press is like jeb bush didn't eat his own tie.

he didn't fall down a flight of stairs. he still has the top of his head in both hands. looks like a successful trip. gaffes free. and this was an embarrassment. unless the beltway press gets it spoon fed to them. it is gaffe free so it must have been. amazing. there have basically three things going on right now in presidential politics and one is the republican feed -- this amazing republican field and being so huge and flat and no obvious front-runner and so far i think, so poorly covered in terms of the differences between the candidates and how well or how poorly they are doing on their campaigns. jeb, i think he likes us --

bush is back on monday. apparently donald trump is declaring his presidential run on tuesday. even with what i think are the beltway press. i'm surprised that hasn't been a bigger deal in the press. maybe he's too hard to pronounce too. i don't know. there the gop field, which is amazing. and that is one thing that is going on. and emerging fields on how the gop field is being covered. maybe the press is spread too thin. and there is the process and how it is in flux right now. and we reported last night in face of the giant candidates is the first republican debate is now off with new hampshire in particular. a lot of the republican candidates as well rejecting the terms that were agreed to by the republican party and fox news to cut off eligibility for the first debate at ten candidates which it looks like there are closer to 20 candidates running. the new hampshire largest newspaper is holding a simultaneous event, simultaneous

to the first fox debate that will put the candidates in the position to decide whether they can do the fox or the new hampshire debate. they can't do both. that is a crisis that just started since the new hampshire leader announced they will do the simultaneous event. we have no idea how that will play out. and they were hoping that the iowa straw poll will help to whittle down the candidates and those hopes were dashed when they decided to not hold the iowa straw poll this year. and so how the republicans will choose their nominee from this historically nominee field and there has never been a field like this, that process is in flux in a way it has never been before and that is fascinating. but then the third thing going on right now is happening in the democratic field. and the democratic field

there are a lot of questions about what kind of president hillary clinton might be. a lot of substantive questions about what her style would be as president, about how her policies might stack up against this current democratic president or her last democratic president, which is her husband or maybe she'll be nothing like the last dickic president and before the last pick of the last democratic press and whether or not she can get there, historically speaking it is hard for a presidential party to hold on to the white house after a president has two terms. whoever the republicans pick it is a hard row to hoe.

for the democrats to put another president in the white house after barack obama's two terms. does hillary clinton campaign have a plan that can win. how can they run the campaign and is it likely to put her in the white house and what is the strategy and how good of a strategy is it? the guy we have here i most want to ask the question is the guy that can most answer the questions. stay tuned.

i like my seafood like i like my vacations: tropical. and during red lobster's island escape, three new tropical dishes take me straight to the islands. so i'm diving fork-first into the lobster and shrimp in paradise, with panko-crusted lobster tail and jumbo shrimp in captain morgan barbecue glaze. or the ultimate island seafood feast, with tender crab wood-grilled lobster and two island-inspired flavors of jumbo shrimp. because a summer without tropical flavors might as well be winter. this escape is too good to miss so...don't. this is roosevelt island. it is part new york city in the soft river, between manhattan and queens and it is 8 miles

wildfire. and it is hard to get to. you can get the f train or take this tram to. and every once in a while it does get stack and leaves people dangling. but that is fun. most of the time it is fine. it is called roosevelt. it is named after franklin voez roosevelt and it has a new park and it is named after the speech he gave in 1941 when he talked about the -- about the free tom of worship and the free tom of -- freedom of speech. and tomorrow people are to make their way over to the island for a speech by hillary clinton. and she did announce she is running for president and she has been doing events and smally

call and close to the press and been in iowa and new hampshire and traveling to other places around the country. tomorrow is her first big large-scale hello-america, public event. tomorrow is considered tomorrow to be her campaign kickoff. supposed to be 85 degrees and partly sunny for the event. people are expected to be filtering on to the island all morning at 11:45 eastern her speech is due to start and it will be secretary clinton stating her case saying who she is and why she's running. against this giant chaosic republican field, when there are so many different republican candidates running but honestly no policy differences among them, against the unexpectedly spunky challenge that clinton has gotten from the unabashed left from bernie sanders, for as fascinating as this campaign is in the early days i really

really want to hear why hillary clinton is saying she is running. i know that she is running. i want to hear from her the mission statement for her campaign. i want to know why she's running. when it comes to imagining her in the white house, and her making it to the white house, honestly, i also want to know something about how she's running. about how she planning to get there. and why she thinks that plan will work. joining us now is marlin marshall director of state campaigns for the hillary clinton campaign and am i right you'll be the emcee tomorrow on roosevelt island. >> that is pushing that. i'm emceeing the event. i'm excited. >> thank you. it is nice to have you here. lodgesticly, i think the logistics are right. in terms of the goal of the campaign is this the mission statement, in terms of hello america, this is who i am and this is why i'm running. >> yes. this is why she's running and

goes back to her perm story, her mother, how her mother was a fighter. she was abandoned at an early age and when she was 14 years old -- she was abandoned at 14 years old and then -- i'm losing my train of thought for a second. i apologize. >> you won't be nervous tomorrow. >> i will not be nervous tomorrow. only on your show. she was abandoned at an early age and when hillary was at an early story and when she was young she was shocked her mother was able to keep moving and she said throughout life people kept giving her chances and that is why she wants to rub for president to give people chances. >> to give people more chances that made her story possible. while i look at the challenge ahead of you. >> yeah. >> i know that you guys and you in particular are in charge of making sure that hillary clinton

organization is in all 50 states. >> right. >> i look at the challenge hist or ingly speaking of holding on to the white house as president barack obama has for the democrats and it happens and bush won after reagan but it is up hill climb to do and why do you think of pufting staff and money and energy in a place like utah and alaska. >> well first of all for a competitive primary and we are expecting a competitive primary and we are a large staff organizing and doing one-on-one meetings with individual supporters to talk about how to get involved and we have staff in every other state, and we have posted grass root organizing meetings and to get past the first four states you want to have a competitive primary in any other state. the real reason is i'm a true believer that organizing is about the power of the personal story and when you get an organizer in a story and share the story about why they support

a candidate and what it is about them and for me it is my mother i support hillary clinton and it goes back to my mom and she was a teacher for 36 years and i saw her teach fifth graders and seeing that i wanted those kids to have -- i don't know how to describe it except more of my mother's vision for children is what drove me every single day as i was growing up. having those stories, having people organize telling those stories, that is why people will give their time and energy to the campaign and it is important to start that early in the campaign. >> and you say you are expecting a competitive primary. bernard sanders, independent of vermont. i describe him as having a spunky campaign so far. do you see him as the chief competition for the nomination how do you see the democratic field shaping up? >> i think we're preparing for anything. and so we're just preparing for

a competitive primary. if you look at iowa the incoming president nobody has gotten above 50% in iowa caucuses. so anything can happen. but you have to really go out there andern everyone's -- and earn everyone's support and we're putting everyone on the ground and that is what we're continuing to do and that is what you'll hear tomorrow. >> and the reason i asked you about bernie sanders and he's doing another event tonight at drake university where he is a good boisterous turnout and people thought of him as a den is kucinich type of character and does that mobilize you in terms of the crowds he is turning out. >> we've had a lot of turnout. people have gone into people's home to be part of the meetings and we have eebts lined up for iowa nevada new hampshire and

we're excited about our excitement that we're seeing on our side too and we feel good about it. >> marlon marshall for the hillary clinton campaign. will you please put in a good word that secretary clinton should come on the show and do an interview. >> i'll tell her. >> i'll check and make sure. >> i know you will. >> okay. lots to come tonight, stay with us.

breathless announce. they are about to be caught. but the big development is there has been an arrest made in conjunction with this case. there was reporting about a civilian prison employee who worked at the taylor shop where the two were employed inside of the prison. and a lot of what was reported was unsourced rumored and gossip but the district attorney said three specific things about her. one, that she has been helping authorities as they try to find these convicted this week. two, she did provide the escaped prisoners with some materials that might have helped in their escape. although the district said the recent reports that she gave them power tools, those reports are not true. and three, the big news tonight, is that as of today, this woman who worked at the prison who has been helping, who did provide these guys with something that aided in their escape according to the prosecutors, she is now been arrested and charged with

one felony count of promoted prison contraband and criminal facilitation and that could mean up to seven years in jail. and she has been helping authorities all week voluntarily. and why they waited until today to read her her rights and lock her up we don't know. authorities are interviewed numerous other civilian employees at the prison and this woman is one part of the investigation but tonight, after a week, she's under arrest and that is the latest tonight from upstate new york as this manhunt continues. joining us now is jesse mckinley mckinley, a new york times reporter covering the manhunt since it began last week. thanks for joining us. thanks for being here. >> good evening. >> do we know what this prison employee did? >> well that is a good question. we don't exactly. the questions as to what sort of contraband she brought into the prison, there are reports it was some sort of saw, there were reports it might have been a cell phone but none of those are

confirmed. what the district attorney did say is that it was power tools, some sort of electrical grinder or something like that those are false according to the district attorney. >> what do we know about the circumstances of her arrest. it may be that i don't know how these things work but it does seem at least interesting that the escape happened a week ago, either last friday or saturday, she's apparently been working with authorities all week why arrest her today? why that timing? >> well i think that the going theory right now is that perhaps she has told them as much alz they can. after all, if you buy the theory she was supposed to be the betaway driver and that -- be the getaway driver and that might involve her much more than she is now. at this point she has spilled as much as they can to authorities and they have come to the end of the lead and she is being arrested and arraigned as we speak. >> jesse, this intensive manhunt over a large area continues now, if it goes on until tomorrow it

will be starting a full second week, they have got hundreds of law enforcement up there and it has been a lot of heavy weather and grouping work 24 hours a day, is there tension, is this now becoming itself a strain in terms of the size of the operation? is there tension among law enforcement taking part in this and the people who live up there? >> there have been reports, sure there is some butting of the heads in terms of agencies. kind of more anecdotally in being on the ground and seeing the guys come out of the woods, there is a real dower mood about them. they want to catch these guys particularly the correction agents in the prison. they are sleeping in there and eating in there and they haven't seen their families. can i sense a frustration about it. that being said the size of the search party continues to gre. they have 800 guys on the ground here now. so they are still expressing confidence but they can't be

happy with the progress they've made. >> and in terms of progress bluntly, is there any concrete sign of the trailer anything hard that authorities have disclosed in terms of a clue a sign, something that is confirmed that these guys have been anywhere outside of the prison? >> the short answer is no. they have said that the canine units picked up a scent and they are confident in this lead and feel strongly enough about it that they have basically focused a great deal of the search on five square mile area just to the east of here. but in terms of finding bedding that is reported but not confirmed and there were reports they found some is candy or some food wrappers but that is not confirmed. and that is nature of the beast. the police may be playing the cards close to the vest. but for example a tool for example or bray-in or a stolen vehicle report we have none of that at this hour. >> amazing. just the longer the story it

goes on the more remarkable it becomes. jesse mckinley from the new york times, your clarity on this is remarkable. thank you. >> thank you very much. a lot still ahead tonight, including as promised, terrifying sea creatures. but first one more thing about this manhunt. ly admit this is not the most substantive thing in the world but you need to know this. the new york state police commander leading the manhunt for the two escaped prisoners, we now know his name. his name is charles guess. specifically major charles guest. the man leading the manhunt is charles guess. that's all. alright, let's take a look. the one on the right just used 1% less fuel than the one on the left. now, to an airline a 1% difference could save enough fuel to power hundreds of flights around the world. hey, look at that. pyramids. so you see, two things that are exactly the same

in most other countries the national sport is soccer -- futbol and our sport is baseball. and one of the things the countries must find the most perplexing about our pass time is baseball stadium shenanigans.

minor league teams are the best. minor league teams are the famous for doing the nuttiest stuff in their stadiums. one of the greatest things about minor league baseball. if you have not been to a minor league baseball game treat yourself and go to it. you will love it and the tickets are cheap. and our shin anans are running mascots around the bases. in milwaukee it is the racing of the sausages. in pittsburgh it is the racing of the perohis. they are hard to hell apart except for the different hats. but at nationals park in washington, d.c., home of the nationals, it is the racing of the puppet presidents. president obama last night went on a rare presidential baseball outing and he went to the congressional baseball game where republicans and democrats from congress play against each other in baseball. and president obama, while he was there, look he met the big, awkward president puppet things back stage at the stadium.

apparently he said on the street he challenged them to a race. but there are a couple of pizzas of good news for the president that came out of the trip that he took to the congressional baseball game. the first one is that he did take this surreal and awesome picture with the awkward racing president things. that is great. the other piece of good news for president obama is that the democrats won. for the seventh straight year the democrats routed congressional republican lz at the baseball game. congressional republicans are good at winning some things, baseball against democrats is not one of them. can't jerry mander that field. but the reason president obama was there last night, much as i'm sure he loves baseball had less to do with the baseball game and more to do with nancy pelosi. and so john boehner is the leader of congressional republicans, for a while he was the leader when they were in the minority and now the leader as the speaker. other way, john boehner, even though he is the leader he has

very little control over the republicans. he converts little sway over what the republicans do. it is a mystery when he brings something up for the vote in the house when he reportedly controls and you never know whether something will pass or not, something exciting about the john boehner leadership. it is chaos. nancy pelosi is the opposite number in the other party, the democratic party and nancy pelosi has never had that problem. and when she is leader she conducted house democrats like a symphony. when she was speaker, that is how the house was able to pass the huge number of bills that she passed and when she is in the minority it makes news for what house democrats will do. and when pelosi has weighs in on what she thinks they should do for the democrats, that is what happens. and after the president was spotted and talking with nancy

pelosi you could guess what they were talking about was today's big nail biter of a vote in congress. this trade deal thing is a rare bird. republicans like it president obama likes it. but most democrats do not like it. and republicans have this big majority in congress. theoretically they should be able to pass it on their own. but john boehner cannot lead a puppy to a hamburger or conduct a single person playing chop sticks or whip his way out of a paper bag or get republicans to do anything he wants them to do ever and even though he has the numbers which should mean he could do this himself, he can't. he needs democrats, some democrats to cross over and vote with republicans in order to pass this thing. and there was a lot of suspense heading into the vote as to whether or not the democratic votes would be there. there was a ton of suspense nobody knew what would happen until nancy pelosi stood up and

said she would vote no and then it was like been boom. turn out the lights lock the door slam the door and get in the car and drive home. and it wasn't even close. and that is what happened today. but for the trade deal it is not over. through some procedural acrobatics they are bringing it back early next week but today at least the president's baseball diplomacy with nancy pelosi and the president turning up on capitol hill today to personally lobby, not just nancy pelosi but all democrats to please vote yes on this thing, the president cajoling democrats that they should trust him on this the trade deal weren't so bad and he wouldn't support it if it weren't as bad as they said it would be and everything he tried was not enough to stop this thing today and liberals stopped this trade thing. if they want to keep it dead they have to hold the line through this weekend and through

the beginning of next week until the next vote happens and it is going to be a high pressure line to hold. i mean first of all there is always the possibility that republicans might get it together under john boehner leadership and do it themselves. don't worry about that. more likely there is going to be a ton of pressure among all of the various factions within the democratic party. today the liberal group democracy for america put out this statement ahead of today's vote. this is unusual for democratic politics. look. quote, we wanted to be very clear to democratic members of congress if you vote for the trade bill we will not lift a finger or raise a penny to protect you when you are attacked in 2016. we will encourage our allies to join us in leaving you to rot. and we will actively search for opportunities to primary you with a real democrat leaving you to rot. liberals and democrats don't
