tv The Rachel Maddow Show MSNBC December 15, 2015 6:00pm-7:01pm PST
6:00 pm
with loads of diseases coming over the border. now we have the two attack, less than two months, and the total freakout in l.a. today. yeah, it's a gloomy party. i think. okay. i think marco rubio will go down in history as a great loss opportunity. i really do. >> i think he could have been a different one. >> thank you both. >> that is all this evening. the "rachel maddow" show starts right now. >> thank you for being with us this hour. this were afternoon, former secretary of state and presidential candidate hillary clinton was set to give a speech on isis and homeland security in minnesota, the speech was scheduled for 3:45 this afternoon. but uncharacteristically for hillary clinton, she was really late. she didn't get to the stage until more than an hour after her speech was supposed to start. her operation is a well oiled
6:01 pm
machine. >> that kind of thing does not happen very often. apparently the thing went so late is because she was meeting before her speech with local muslim leaders from the minneapolis area. the twin cities, st. paul, minnesota, are home to a lot of refugees and new immigrants from all over the world, including a big community of refugees from somalia. there has been a particular problem in the minneapolis area of young somali kids getting recruited from abroad to go fight for el shabab and extremist groups. former secretary of state and hillary clinton met with leaders from muslim community today before her speech and apparently went really, really long. when she did take the stage just after 5:00 tonight, for whatever reason, she was loaded for bare. she was a few minutes into the speech when she took a nice clean hard shot at republican presidential contender ted cruz. >> shallow slogans don't add up
6:02 pm
to a strategy promising to carpet bomb until the desert glows doesn't make you sound strong. it makes you sound like you are in over your head. >> bluster and bigotry are not credentials for becoming commander-in-chief and it is hard to take seriously senators who talk tough but then hold up key national security nominations, including the top official at the treasury department responsible for disrupting terrorist financing.
6:03 pm
>> the target of that attack tonight from hillary clinton is obviously senator ted cruz he did say he wanted to carpet bomb syria until the sand glowed. he's also been a part of the holdup for the nomination of the treasury departments under secretary for terrorism and financial intelligence. the nominee is a guy named adam zubin. we have been talking about it a lot recently. he is supposed to be the top person in the u.s. government 1234 charge of hunting doub financing for isis, cutting offer their money supplies which is a critical tool against them. president obama nominated him tore that job in april. there is no substantive objection to his nomination whatsoever. when adam zuban had his nomination in september. the committee said he was eminently qualified for that job. no republican senator says that isn't an important job. no republican senator says that guy isn't the right guy for the
6:04 pm
job. but there still has been no vote on adam zuban and hillary clinton popped republican senators like ted cruz for that inexplicable delay tonight. she got a standing ovation was about bigotry and attacks and political demonization against muslims in this country. and on that suggest, she did not allude to one of the republicans running for president. she went ahead and named him. >> donald trump's proposal to ban all muslims from entering the united states has rightly sparked outrage across our country and around the world, even some of the other republican candidates are saying he's gone too far. but the truth is many of those same candidates have also said disgraceful things about muslims and this kind of divisive rhetoric actually plays into the hands of terrorists. it alienates partners and
6:05 pm
undermines moderates. we need around the world in this fight against isis. i can tell you insulting possible allies doesn't make it any easier. [ applause ] and demonizing muslims also feeds a narrative that jihadists use to recruit new followers around the world. >> that the united states is at war with islam. as both the pentagon and the fbi have said in the past week, we cannot in anyway lend credence to that twisted idea. this is not a clash of civilizations. this is a clash between civilization and barberism and that's how it must be seen and
6:06 pm
fough fought. we must all stand up against offensive, inflammatory, hateful, anti-muslim rhetoric [ applause ] . you know, not only do these comments cut against everything we stand for as americans, they are also dangerous. >> hillary clinton giving a major speech on terrorism and her plan to fight isis and homeland officials and going into details about attacks
6:07 pm
against muslims and the demonization by some republicans running for president and around the same time that she was given that uncharacteristically delayed speech tonight, a super pac supporting hillary clinton, a group called correct the record, they blasted out their own version kind of of this same argument. it's about the same issue but it definitely comes out at a different angle. it's about 80 second long. the way they start the video is saying viewer discretion is advised. they do that for effect. i do that sometimes. i think partly that may be the title. you should take it literally. >> that viewer discretion is advised. you may find this upis theing. it is very charged. it may not appropriate for little kid. i will give you a moment to find the pause button or the mute button or to be distracting. one, two, three.

6:08 pm
okay. now we will play it. check it out. >> get out of my country. >> get out. >> i'm a u.s. citizen. >> well, whatever. >> okay. >> we have a problem in this country it's called muslims. we know our current president is one. you know he's not even an america american. >> a zblrnlthsz. >> donald trump supporters lashing out at hecklers. one man yelling a nazi salute. >> donald trump was met by a contentious crowd at a rally late last night. >> you say he was roughed up. he was so loud, this guy started
6:09 pm
screaming by themselves. i don't know rough up. he should have been, maybe he should have been roughed up. >>. >> isn't a trump rally much more exciting than these other guys? >> that video was released from a super pac supporting hillary clinton, basically saying republican presidential front runner donald trump is creating a political climate with his campaign that is literally violent, inspiring violence at lots of events where he is spaeking. and that is an unsettling ad, that is an incendiary charge. it is also clearly true vie license has been happening at his rallies and events in a way not true of other candidates
6:10 pm
this year. and that fact exists uncomfortably and in an unsettling way alongside something else that has been happening over the last few weeks in our country. something happening outside of politics, certainly outside of the presidential campaign. it appears to be in a parallel lane. it is unnerving. we know the white house is concerned about it. because they held two meetings yesterday they did not announce until the meetings were over and the president, himself, spoke about it today with quite a bit of passion. >> that is next. stay with us. zblrnlgs
6:12 pm
zblrnlgs. >> on december 6th, last sunday, police in buena park, california, were called to this sikh house of worship after members of that temple showed up for services no find misspelled graffiti spray-painted about isis and islam spray painting on the walls of their temple. in a parking lot. at a truck parked at the temple.
6:13 pm
in a few days, police ended up arresting a 20-year-old who admitted to spray painting graffiti there. sikhs, of course, are not muslims, totally different faith. sikh men grow long beards and wear turbins. particularly ignorant muslim haters have frequently targeted sikhs in the past out of sheer blundering big oughted stupidity. well, this weekend, the police declared they would not be seeking the attack at a hate crime. and then something remarkable happened on sunday. the 20-year-old arrested. the guy that got aretted and admitted doing all that spray painting. he showed up at the temple during services and gave a personal apology for what he did. so confused 20-year-old mot rate issed by anti-muslim bigotry, vandalizes noun non-house of worships issues a personal apology.
6:14 pm
sikh community in buena park, california, is left understandably bewilderred by the whole thing, also in some ways threatened. this has been a rushing current in the news. if you look at national news and also local news around the country these past couple of weeks, that feels like we have been experiencing a spike in criminal incidents designed to hurt or at least intimidate muslims or people who attackers believe are muslims. two days before the sikh incident in california, the islamic center of palm beach in palm beach, california. they had half their windows broken by an unknown assailant. who days later it was a severed pick's head in philadelphia. >> jim, the severed pig's head was found right here behind me, thrown right in front of this mosque. that's what the fbi is investigating tonight. they're looking for the truck you are about to see in this video. >> i'm scared because you don't know what's next.
6:15 pm
>> you can clearly see the severed pick's head land near the islamic society mosque. >> that was last week. last monday in philadelphia. the following day, it was a mosque in jersey city, new jersey. >> he opened the letter, out spewed hate. he has since turned it over to the jersey city police. it reads in part, we do not want you here. we do not like you. you are evil. >> it's a big concern for us now. >> the letter comes a month after a threatening voicemail. >> . >> that was jersey city, new jersey arc week ago today. that was last tuesday. then a couple days after that, last thursday, police were evacuating the d.c. oss of care, the council on islamic relations after a suspicious foreign substance was sent to that d.c. office along with a message that
6:16 pm
read, quote, die a painful death. on the same day, another care office in california was also evacuated after another envelope was discovered containing a suspicious white substance. the substances in both of those cases did turn out to be harmless. those two evacuations of the care office was thursday. that same day the islamic care center phoenix, arizona, reported its windows had been broken and that same day in grand forks, north dakota, a man set fire to a somali restaurant after it was spray-painted with nazi graffiti and words "go home." that was thursday. this past weekend it was three separate movings in california. >> extra police patrols in hawthorne tonight. >> we just had a peaceful march yesterday. somebody comes up. >> you see the black right here. >> this morning, they found this black graffiti that says, jesus is the way.
6:17 pm
on the front wall of the islamic center of hawthorne. overnight, another hawthorne mosque. a pile from the islamic center was vand amized as well. crosses were spray painted on the get and windows. on friday arc mosque in the coachella valley was fire bombed just before the big afternoon prayer service. this man, carl james dual was arrested for arson and a hate crime. you can see the windows have been cleaned off at this mosque. they obviously were here praying tonight. they will continue to do so. i have been in touch with hawthorne police. i am told they as well as the fbi are still investigate both of these incidents as a hate crime. >> three separate mosques in california this weekend, all reporting from this weekend. this is from grand rapids, michigan, about a shooting there on saturday night. >> reporter: the 34-year-old store clerk that goes by tony can be seen in this under surveillance video getting ready
6:18 pm
to close saturday just before midnight. you see a man walks in, pointeding a long gun at him. >> he said, just give me all the money and like keep your hands up. don't look at me. >> reporter: the store manager says the masked man demanded money. tony puts cash in a bag and hands it over. it's not the end. she says the robber ordered him into a back room where tony was forced on his knees, had a gun shoved in his mouth and was called a terrorist and a member of isis. he said the robber then said he used to shoot people like him all the time in iraq. >> he was started for it because we had nothing to do with it. obviously, we're trying to live our normal lives. i grew up here. and a lot of my friends said -- >> the clerk is from india, not the middle east. he's not muslim. >> like anyweather, it doesn't matter, you shouldn't be specifically going for one race.
6:19 pm
you know, like it's not like, we're not involved in any of it. you know so it's really sad that people want that. >> police say tony grabbed a gun and started to fight back, causing a gun to shoot him in the cheek instead of the back of his head. the fire shot two more shots before leaving. >> he is very lucky. it could have been a lot worse. >> saturday night in grand rapids, michigan a. man shot in the face. >> and there are other incidents, those are a sampling from the last two weeks. it seems like at least part of the way we are responding to the san bernardino mass shootings is by random american was are muslims or people think are muslims. should i, maybe you pin this to san bernardino? maybe those were all attacks in san bernardino. maybe you pin it to the paris terrorist attacks last month? maybe you pin it to republican
6:20 pm
politics right now. i don't know. but it seems like there are a lot of physical attacks against muslim targets and targets perceived to be muslim right now. how do we know if that impression is true, if there is a spike right now? and what works to stop it if we are having violent big oughted attacks a. criminologist at cal-state san bernardino, i really appreciate you being with us. thanks for being here. >> thank you for being here. >> anecdotally, it feels like there is a lot. i don't trust it as real data. how do we know if attacks on muslims are going up right now? >> it's a lab. it's done monthly by most apartments. the national collection of data occurs annually lags a year
6:21 pm
behind. we had our 2014 figures come out about a month ago. i can tell you that we've averaged about 13 anti-islamic hate crimes reported to the fbi each month. which is probably an under count. we had them reported nation wide, yet the bureau of justice statistics data seems to suggest there is 200,000 hate crimes annually. so there is a big gap. our centers preliminary data where what we tried to do was take crimes reported in the media that appeared to be criminal acts and hate motivated in whole or in part against muslims over the last month. we see about 33 so we're talking two-and-a-half times the five-year moving average of hate crimes in the united states. that's reported hate crimes as
6:22 pm
you have shown, we saw assaults in new york, new jersey, california, north dakota as you showed. >> let me recap that. you are saying there are different confidence and lack times. if you are looking at reported publicly available information, as far as you are tell, what's happening right now is more than double the typical frequency these types of events in the united states? >> that's exactly correct. i am former nypd. i did multijurisdictional statistic am analysis. i tried to take out acts that were hateful but not criminal and then tried to take those cases that pass muster with regard to the fbi standards. as a criminologist, the available data seems to indicate on published data shows about two-and-a-half times, more than two-and-a-half times to the moving average over the last
6:23 pm
five years. we had 12r0i69 160 in the last month. we had 33 hate crimes give or take. we are averaging 13 a month. that's a significant increase to what we usually see. >> it's really helpful to get that quantitative data driven. thank you, i appreciate it. >> thank you so much. those numbers, to get those qualifications is important. if it feels like there has been a lot of these types of attacks in the last couple of weeks, i think it's true there has been a lot of attacks on muslims and targets that people think are muslim. >> that is a problem that is now big enough to at least have warranted not one but two big white house meetings yesterday. as far as i can tell, i think
6:24 pm
those were meetings not announced in advanced. but yesterday a group of sikh leaders and separately a group of muslim leaders were incite vieted to high level meetings with white house staff specifically to talk about perceived violence against religious minorities in this country. then today president obama gave a fairly emotional speech at a naturalization ceremony for people sworn in, held at the national archives, the original copies, of the constitution and bill of rights and declaration of the bill of independents. they cited historical decisions to reject jewish refugees in world war ii and internment of japanese americans in world war ii and pivoted to how we are flirting with those same
6:25 pm
dynamics right now. >> we need to resolve never to make mistakes like that ever agai again. we must resolve to always speak out against hatred and big ol oughtry, whether taunts against a child of an immigrant farm worker or threats against a muslim, a shop keeper, we are americans. standing up for each other is what the values enshrined in the documents in this room compels us to do, especially when it's hard. especially when it's not convenie
6:26 pm
convenient. that's when it counts. that's when it matters. not when things are easy. but when things are hard. the truth is, being an american is hard. being a part of a democratic government is hard. being a citizen is hard. it is a challenge. it's supposed to be. >> there is no respite from our ideas. all of us have called to live up to our expectations for ours, not when it's convenient, when it's tough within we're afraid. >> president obama speaking at the national archives today talking before a group of people sworn in for the very first time as brands new american citizens. we'll be right back. we'll be right back. .cold can make you miserable.

6:29 pm
quick to call it a hoax. l.a. decided they weren't taking chances. they shut down the whole school district. the fbi determined the threat was not credible. and tonight l.a. officials say a total of 1531 school sites have been walked through an inspected. deemed safe to reopen tomorrow, back tomorrow in l.a. we'll bring you more as it develops. it can be especially serious- even fatal to infants. unfortunately, many people who spread it may not know they have it. it's called whooping cough. and the cdc recommends everyone, including those around babies, make sure their whooping cough vaccination is up to date. understand the danger your new grandchild faces. talk to your doctor or pharmacist about you and your family getting a whooping cough vaccination today. ♪

>> behold, the 1912 cadillac model 30, 1912. so cool. so elegant, it almost hurts to look at it. the 1912 cadillac won awards for its tech no logical breakthroughs that year t. model came with an electric starter. it came with headlights. general motors started making cars in michigan 100 years ago. aside from the occasional strike and bailout, general motors has kept going right along all these years. but just over a year ago, one gm plant in michigan realized they had a big and strong problem t. water at the factory. coming out of the taps, getting from the city water supply, where the factory was located, also, the water basically wentback bad and it turns out because the city had changed the source of where it was getting its water supply and the few water, the city water coming out
6:34 pm
of the spigot all of a sudden was so corrosive that that gm factory could no longer use it for anything at that facility where they were making cars so they made other arrangements to get water from other places. it turns out that same tap water that gm decided to keep away from engine parts. >> that came corrosive bad water was bothering the people in that town who were trying to drink it. this is from june, 2014. check it out. >> they are getting the water from the flood river. it's not sitting well with some residents and businesses who say the water smells and they don't want to drink or shower with it. >> i don't know how it's clean, it smells and tastes bad. >> he can't remember the city water tasting this bad. now he's turning to bottled water and avoiding the tap. >> i can smell it. this is in the a big debate. this is not something i can figure out.
6:35 pm
>> when i'm showering and bathing, my skin feels a little different. the spell from the water in the shower kind of convinced me that the water is not the same. >> i know what hard water feels like against my skin. i have very sensitive skin and it feel like hard water. >> people in flint, michigan, started speaking up about their water last year. they could tell something was wrong right away. after they started using water piepd up from detroit and switched to water in the local flint river. people right away said it tasted bad, felt bad on their skin. we know the folks at general motors noticed it. they took it off the city water supply to protect the fine new engines. if you were a resident, i have no means to arrange your water supply. in flint, michigan, this is what you found in response to your complaints. >> in a statement. they say the water meets all the
6:36 pm
standards, they continuously monitor the problems. city officials say the water is perfectly safe for everybody to drink. >> perfectly safe, people. so it smells, so it stings. so it core rodes car engines. drink up, we're continuously monitoring your water. that was the official line for more than a year. it turns out, that official line was not just wrong. it was dangerously toxically and perhaps irreversibly wrong. both the gm plant and the neighbors were right. the water was bad. >> that river water corroded the pipe, the homes, the schools, when it corroded those pipes, it released into the tea kettles and water glasses and shower space poison is lead. it released the lead, the people of flint drank that water now filled with lead.
6:37 pm
it made them sick. in september, the local press uncovered state documents showing lead levels rising in flint. scientists came up to test the water in flint. they said the state should have known this could have happened when they started using water and despite these unequivocal public assurances the water was perfectly safe, government officials didn't know about the led. the city's own testing found it going up after they switched to river water. then came the blood test results. a local doctor found many babies and kids had elevated levels of lead as kids from other places. in some neighborhoods, it was nearly three times all since the city switched the water. all that lead flowing in the blood streams of children and the babies of flint, it putting them at risk for sickness and lasting neurological damage. lead poisoning is not reversible.
6:38 pm
next month in october, state officials finally admitted they used the wrong standards for safety to get water from the flynnt river. by then the e was investigating. fema was trucking in bottled water. you can find today the official public advice for worried flint parents from the state of michigan. it includes advising parntsdz they should be eating to few and milk and cheese to keep lead from being stored in a child's body. so maybeb fema shoum be truck income spinach and tomatos and tofu along with the water as long as those spinach and tomatos and tofu haven't been watched in flynnt, michigan tap water. eat up, drink up, try spinach to keep lead from being stored in your baby's body. the new mayor of flint was elected in the middle of this crisis. last night, she took a dramatic step. she issued a calm for national health. the city of flint experienced a

6:42 pm
>> they can't remember the city's water tasting the bad. now he's turning to bottled water and avoiding the tap. >> if i can smell it, this is not a big debate. this is nothing nobody can figure out. >> people in flint, michigan knew there was something wrong with their water. as soon as the city switched from getting it from a new source from flip river. even though everybody knew something was wrong. it took more than a year for the city to admit lead levels in the water were rising to dangerous levels and lead levels in flint's kids have, therefore, been ridesing to dang raus levels as well, which, of course, is devastating. it can cause life long and irreversible health problems.
6:43 pm
last night the mayor of flint declared a state of emergency, joining us now is mayor karen weaver of flint, michigan. you are right in the middle of a million things. thank you for taking the time to talk to us tonight. >> thank you, i appreciate it. >> so this was an unusual step. i'm not sure i knew this was even an option for you, as mayor. why did you file it was necessary to call a state of emergency? what do you think will happen because you did that? >> we really felt it was the only step we could take at this point. we are at a critical point right now in the city of flint, michigan. you talked about the lead that impacted the kids and the families in the city of flint. we feed federal assistance. we feed state and federal funds to help us fix this problem. like you said, it's been going on for over a year now. we have problems with our infrastructure. we have children that have been damaged by this lead. they have permanent brain damage.
6:44 pm
we know that flint is not in a position to bear this burden alone. we are asking and looking for state and federal assistance. the only way we are going to have this happen is declare a state of emergency. hopefully, that gets it to the county, which will get it to the state, where the governor can make it federal. >> i understand that you are basically sending up, it sounds to me, you are sending up a red flag, trying to make this a national issue. >> yes, i am. i thank you and others that have stepped forward to help us, you know, with our efforts. >> do you as you try i to run this as far up the flag pole as you can, it seems to me like you are already encountering assistance. we heard from the head of the county board saying there is no need to declare an emergency, you have to go to the national level. do you anticipate you will get resistance at every level in. >> i hope we don't get
6:45 pm
resistance at every level. the last i got is they were going to address this at their meeting coming up the 1st of the ye year. >> the old system went so badly. is the water safe to drink now in flint? especially if damage was done to those pipes by that corrosive water? when do you expect to get that? >> that's the issue. we made the switch back to detroit water that everything is fine now because it's not. we needed to go back because we know that lake huron water was treated. it didn't have the corrosion going on that the flint river water had. but when we made that switch, our pipes were damaged by that corrosive water that was coming from the flynnt river. so that's what happened. the biofilm was torn down. we don't have that anymore. that's what was proeblt protecting us. so when the water comes through the lead leaps out.
6:46 pm
that's why there is still a problem with lead. so we made the switch back to detroit. one of the things you talked about is the permanent damage under the age of 6. we know they have newer lonl cam damage. they are going to have to provide services for those kids and families because we know they're going to show some deficits. >> the mayor was elected by the people of flint, michigan, in large part to fix this problem. we came in knowing this is what they needed to do. this is a herculean task ahead of you, ma'am. good luck. keep us apprised. >> i thank you for that. thank you so much for having me. >> thank you, mayor karen weaver of flint, michigan. you think of what they have to do in terms of the damage already done, like diagnosing problems in kids. making sure there is support, poisoned by this stuff. then the fact that the water has been switched back to the water supply does not end the threat
6:47 pm
from the water it hurts the pipe such that they may continue to have an ongoing poisoning problem because of this terrible erosh that was made. this is not right in flint. this is him go to be a big project to fix it. honestly, my opinion, i think she's right to run up a national flag pole. michigan has treated this with the back of its hand all along, so eslo, not fixing it fast enough and aggressive enough. i think this is a national story. i think they need national hot line. immune system to attack

trump at 31%. the biggest lead, the first time they broke the 40% mark this year. donald trump has been all the polls for month, but he's generally been hanging out in the upper 20s, occasionally breaking into the 30s. so 41%? a 27-point lead over his nearest rival? that seemed very new. and you've got to ask in that circumstance, is this an outlier? could this be wrong? could donald trump's national poll numbers really be spiking like that? after his own ban the muslim thing? when i put that question to pat trirk murray, he was very serious and thoughtful about his response. he pointed out different polls measure different things. this was just one poll among many, polls this far out aren't necessarily predictive. but you know what? 24 hours later, we now have new evidence to suggest that yeah, no reason to be shy. that monmouth poll is not an outlier. 41% in that poll was the highest number donald trump has ever had
6:51 pm
in any national poll, but in today's brand-new washington post/abc news poll, donald trump is almost there. he's got his second highest number ever, 38%. that's about as much as his nearest three rivals put together. so apparently that monmouth poll is not a fluke. since announcing his proposal to ban muslims from entering the united states, donald trump has seen his support among republican voters nationally reach record highs. that does not mean that donald trump is necessarily going to win the presidential nomination, but it does mean that republican voters rite now are absolutely buying what he is selling. in record numbers. sleep well tonight. sorry. when heartburn hits fight back fast tums smoothies starts dissolving the instant it touches your tongue and neutralizes stomach acid at the source tum, tum, tum, tum smoothies! only from tums if you have high blood pressure many cold medicines may raise your blood pressure. that's why there's coricidin® hbp. it relieves cold symptoms

those sweat pants that said "juicy" on the butt, also in. that soundtrack you could not escape, even if you wanted to, was this. ♪ >> by outkast. i just tried to sing it. they owned 2003 with that song. but they were not a one-hit wonder. the year before that song came out, they won the grammy for the best rap performance for a song called "the whole world." that won that grammy along with a hip-hop artist named killer mike. killer mike evening real name is michael render. he's had a storied decade-long career in hip hop. his current gig is called run the jewels. they were named "rolling stones" best rap album of the year in 2014 and because they're funny they restarted a mixed parody version of their own album called "meow the jewels."

that was also super successful. the money from that album was donated to eric garner and michael brown and other people killed by police. so killer mike, he's an award-winning rapper, a busy activist. he's also a businessman. he owns his own barbershop in atlanta, and it turns out he's also best buds with bernie sanders, as you do. >> i have said in many a rap, i don't trust a church or the government. a democrat, a government, a pope or a bishop or those other men. but after spending five hours tonight, after spending five hours with someone who has spent the last 50 years radically fighting for your rights and mine, i can tell you that i am very proud tonight to announce the next president of the united states, senator bernie sanders. everyone give him a round of applause. >> that was november 23. and today, we learned that beyond that endorsement, killer mike, aka michael render, also
