10:30 pm
except the lives of. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so for life you think you understand it and then he lives something else and you hear see some other part of it and realize that everything is ok if you don't i'm trying hard welcome to the big picture. let's not forget that we had an apartheid regime right. i think barack obama is beautiful and funny well. whenever the government says here keep you safe get ready because of the your freedom.
10:31 pm
from fear for. fear for. a. ok it's time for show and tell on tonight's program the last time we told you the supreme court has decided to take up the case of warrantless g.p.s.
10:32 pm
tracking should the bads be able to attach a g.p.s. device to your vehicle and then track you without reasonable cause and without any forewarning producer trees in a sense you to find out what you want to see. anyone remember that game where in the world is carmen sandiego maybe you played it when you were a little kid you know it's the one where you have to collect all those clues and try to figure out where carmen my big but she didn't know you were looking for her and it's not like you went to the supreme court and asked if you were allowed but the thing is you were just a kid and that was just the f.b.i. on the other hand and they were messing around they'd stake out a tracker right up her coat and we would know where she was twenty four seven ok maybe not up her coat but under her car and what do you think carmen would say about that better yet what do you think the u.s. supreme court would have to say. adam he said if i was a person under suspicion or there's a reason a watch and get a warrant gary you believe the patriot act is being used against its own citizens
10:33 pm
and they see it all as terrorists. will join me he says all this electronic tapping is starting to make me want to move off the grid joe please just write back tell us how we can all do that lastly we have he said be happy we have it they have implanted a tracking device directly in our heads so if the government wants to try people without a warrant i'll save them some trouble today i went to the cleaners i had a bunch of pick up over there then i went to the gym i ran for a little bit of course i couldn't go out without coffee so i made a quick trip and then i came to work and i'm a city girl and i do this all without a car so at least i know that the feds they couldn't track me even if they wanted to shoot without. award unless they are ready are. well thanks for giving us their input and here's our next question for you we just told you about the massive protests in the u.k. over the government's plans to cut federal workers pensions so we want to know what you think will people of the united states take to the streets as they have in the
10:34 pm
u.k. if congress starts cutting social security and medicare benefits it was find us on facebook twitter and you tube and knows your response it just might make it on air . well some interesting new details are coming out about how fox news came to be what it is today and believe it or not the details are emerging from our cars belonging to both presidents nixon and george h.w. bush the roger ailes started his reign of terror as a media consultant for these two former presidents and the concept of fox news emerged that while he was working for the nixon administration it was in his peers wanted to create programming that was pro administration and then offer that up as an option to what he viewed as of course the liberal slanted media that was already all over the airwaves now this original concept was supposed to be filmed and aired out of the white house and written and produced to be news the documents are over three hundred pages long here but i think this paragraph or one of the first pages of the treasure trove really gives you the gist of what ailes was looking for and
10:35 pm
it's actually titled a plan for putting the g.o.p. on t.v. news else wrote the following today television news is watched more often than people read newspapers than people listen to radio than people read or gather any other form of communication the reason people are lazy or television you just sit and watch listen the thinking is done for you so ladies and gentlemen i think we found the keystone of g.o.p. television ailes a straight out admits that people are lazy and they purposely go to t.v. where the thinking is done poor that the brainwashing involved in all the g.o.p. led news and all of the mainstream media news obviously ailes original white house plan didn't come to fruition but he got something even better from his evil brainchild and it's. called fox news he took the exact same ideology that he wanted to originally used to project nixon ideas and you just admitted it to cover all conservative views on issues of the whole balanced motto that was said to offer up an alternative to liberal media bias now all seem to attack president nixon that
10:36 pm
was decades ago and now ailes brain child for a g.o.p. news channel has brought us all the right wing conservative commentary that we've come to know anything whoever leaked all those state department documents to the wiki leaks website he's a traitor and should be executed or put in prison for life so if you want to believe that garbage you go right ahead you are voting for obama by the way this is a troll baba book this is what you are voting for and i'm not here to do obama's stuff and you use it with you so you should be in song to be there you are in she talking to me i hear is cheap these are handy talking points you have a sharp stick and he was a short teachers and others he said quote get away from me you and then a word that starts what i say one hundred percent pepper spray you do yup i'm in time and some parenting classes i am not a journalist i'm just a guy who cares i'm sorry i'm just a guy who cares an awful lot about my country and i think you can too. well there
10:37 pm
you have it what started out as a method to promote nixon's ideas and feed the media pro administration stories has turned into what we now know as with all those crazy house that we just showed you so thank you roger ailes for giving us the least fair and balanced network that has ever existed on television. of five states have now enacted strict immigration laws arizona began the upper last year but since that utah indiana georgia and now alabama have joined the ranks and it turns out that they're already feeling the pinch see last week we told you that hispanic populations are fleeing from georgia before this law goes into effect on july first and farmers instantly found themselves without a workforce to pick the crops. this. ok state through. georgia well now alabama whose law is said to be these straight this in the nation they're experiencing the same
10:38 pm
thing. and gathering the things we like for our dinner table is high but hard work and somebody's got to do it sometimes it's difficult to find local folks that are willing to do some of those jobs and that's what we found out about half a dozen south baldwin farms immigrant work alabama's law criminalizes not only employing undocumented immigrants but also assisting them providing transportation or housing and renting the farms may not be alabama's only problem as reconstruction efforts are much needed after tornadoes tore through tuscaloosa just weeks ago and advocates of this bill say that it's meant to put alabamians back to work but will they do that work or is once again show that undocumented immigrants are a backbone of this economy here to discuss this with me is immigration attorney eleanor peltier with morgan lewis and his law firm on our thanks so much for being here and i know you're welcome so you and i was talking about some of these laws before when it first popped up in arizona and of course there was a lot of debate around the country a lot of people were angry there is
10:39 pm
a lot of opinions that this is prejudice law but now it seems like that fear has actually turned into an action and that populations are fleeing these states as you expect that to happen well i'm not surprised to see it happen particularly in alabama alabama is like arizona on stay. it's you don't have to look very far to see the venom in that particular law. the law. prohibits citizens from helping other citizens have a reasonably should have known that the other citizens of the state are undocumented the law requires public officials to report on schoolchildren who they think might be illegal it really is a very vicious piece of legislation to me it goes far beyond trying to bring jobs back to americans and dealing with you could say is the undocumented immigrant problem with the fact that that's just inhumane especially in areas like this where
10:40 pm
there are so many natural disasters you can't assist somebody if they might be undocumented that's exactly right and i think what the alabama law shows is that this is really a civil rights issue it is it is not just an immigrant rights issue it's an issue that has to do with preserving human rights and human dignity and i think that's really the alabama law stripped bare otherwise it sounds like it's time to let the person just lay there and allow them to die and his wife and children where these people going instead if they're fleeing from georgia if they're fleeing from alabama just other nearby states that haven't adopted any of these measures well it's hard to know where they're going but i do i don't believe that they're going home they're really just retreating further into the shadows which really doesn't help anyone it doesn't help our economy it doesn't help us raise wages it doesn't help people come out of the shadows and pay taxes and contribute to the economy and it really just shows the problem with this kind of state patchwork of laws if you
10:41 pm
have one state enact one law and another state enact a different law you're just going to have people move from state to state instead of having one unified balanced approach that really kind of deals with the problem in a comprehensive way what do you think of this. can finally fuel that fire to get comprehensive immigration reform you know back into the talking point of suddenly we see states being hurt and hit by their economy. and then again you know you might see other states then being upset because they suddenly see an influx of immigrants coming in well that's exactly what the problem is with the state by state initiatives and i think it does send a very strong signal to congress and the administration that something finally needs to be done to address the issue and what needs to be done is the very kind of balanced approach we need certainly to improve our in forstmann but we also need to do something with respect to the population that is here and contributing to our
10:42 pm
economy also alabama is saying that this is really easy because alabamians are now going to take this job this is a job creating. bill but do you think that alabamians are actually going to go out into the fields and to do the far more it as well as of course some of the reconstruction work i think you put your finger on the problem with that analysis immigration and employment are really not a zero sum game you can't really empty out a factory of immigrant workers and expect there to be full employment for american workers in that same factory the next day and that's been illustrated time after time when there's a raid on a particular business and immigrants are picked up and often those businesses shudder because there really are no workers who are willing to come into those jobs a perfect example of that is the town of postville in iowa where the economy essentially came to a crashing halt because there was a major raid on a meat processing plant and those people essentially went home there was nobody to
10:43 pm
take those jobs there was nobody kind of buying things in the community and keeping the community economy going after that i think probably you know one of the ways that people think about this is they think that if you don't have that cheap labor around anymore then you're going to be forced to raise wages and then americans will want to take those. jobs because it will groove entire situation right you won't have an underclass of workers anymore but if all the other companies out there right now if wall street isn't hiring and everyone else isn't hiring then why would these companies want to start paying people even more and paying higher wages well i think if we have comprehensive immigration law employers will be forced to pay appropriate wages to all workers including those who were previously undocumented and i think that that would ultimately raise wages across the board for all workers in all levels of jobs so i i think the argument really in terms of raising wages is an argument in favor of comprehensive immigration reform and
10:44 pm
not against it interesting i hope i hope you're right in that sense because you know we keep hearing that that's the argument for not raising taxes because the more capital the businesses have the more people they're going to hire but instead they're just sitting on it and they don't. punishing the rest of america or any other bills that we should know about that are being drafted right now well nikki haley in south carolina just signed a very similar bill in south carolina it's similar to the arizona bill it basically requires law enforcement officers from the state of south carolina to. stop someone and request information about immigration status if they reasonably believe that someone is undocumented now of course how a person can reasonably come to the conclusion that someone is undocumented is anyone's guess and our worry is that it really kind of is an invitation to racial profiling i want to thank you very much for joining us tonight eleanor the one that really baffles my mind is that you are not supposed to help anybody if you think
10:45 pm
that they might have documents and that's that's just and humane and that thank you so much thank you. i still come tonight tonight he compared them to children and tonight we're giving them our tools and award to their lack of leadership and stick around for happy hour and then we see suspend the can trigger. three calls obama a derogatory name for the male anatomy and we say goodbye to the big chubby crybaby over at fox and it's fucking still. get up sometimes you see a story and it seems so poorly pleat you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm sorry welcome to the big picture. early on. and you know.
10:46 pm
fuck fuck. fuck fuck. let's not forget that we had an apartheid regime right leg. i think rock the bomb is either funny well.
10:47 pm
whenever the government says they're for keep them safe kids graduate because their freedom. time for tonight's tool time award and we're giving it to the entire one hundred twelfth u.s. congress the senate majority leader harry reid announced today that he's canceling the july fourth week long recess to stay washington in hopes that lawmakers can reach a deal on the debt ceiling issue is not nice congress actually has to come back to work next tuesday and work instead of taking another week off and i'm sure that his
10:48 pm
top of the lawmakers who probably had the trips lined up with a family or maybe a fundraiser back in their districts but why this sudden change of plans by senator reid oh yeah maybe with this comment by the president believe him seisure. generally finish their homework a day at the. least thirteen sasha's ten it is a press they don't wait until the night before they're not pulling all nighters. there's . their thirteen until. yes they took a presidential scolding to get lawmakers to think about doing their jobs act had to call groener members of congress elected by you and i had to call them children to get them to actually go back to work and the sad thing is that children probably spend more time in school than members of congress really do working take
10:49 pm
a look at this info that we found today for all of two thousand and ten members of the house were only in session for one hundred and twenty one days and the senate hundred fifty nine days that's less than half a year so far this year and by the way this year will be the half half over by tomorrow the house has worked seventy five days and the senate's only seventy six so where can i sign up for this job you make around one hundred seventy thousand dollars a year you only have to come to the office half the time to illustrate my point even more than it was scheduled to be out of session next week and then go on recess for an inch higher month starting august sixth the house of representatives has been off eight weeks already this year including this week did you get eight weeks of vacation so far this year because i started it so how the hell is a larger engine supposed to solve any problems but nobody works that's why we haven't passed a budget in so long that's why we're giving the hundred twelve us congress our tool time award for being absolutely useless oh and for the record well i'm not an elected member of congress i am taking monday the fourth of july off i'm the break
10:50 pm
from covering this insane gridlock that they cause. ok it's time for happy hour tonight and joining me this evening is our chief producer jenny churchill and j.p. freres senior communications strategist at new media strategies you have your own olives keep your hands allergy you want to more. ok so today is the end of an era. i couldn't be more excited but let me show you who talking about. t.v. and radio there is a strange alliance between the left and the islamicist that we're seeing i think it's all part of the coming insurrection the progressives want to do in the first place collapse the system and start all over again you know how much money rupert
10:51 pm
murdoch is you know he's got all these things going on you think he's going to let a guy it's five o'clock so you bunch of stuff put this together it's completely wrong and stay on the network. yeah that's exactly what i think is that he's going to let you go out there say bunch of things that are completely wrong and stay on the network where you get a whole story about roger ailes and how he started planning this way back to nixon days but are you as happy to see so i am are you satisfied i thought it was sad when we first found out it was going off air because it was such a goldmine for us i mean our best episode in my opinion ever was or how we got this out where you pretended to be him but he's ok i'm sorry you were and he's done nothing for us you were there you saw them back there ever was. and you've got a kind of a whole i mean look at the last six months i didn't even revisit my impersonation day i didn't think it was worth it you know i i mean look this guy this guy has a has a show that has a state has thirty following fox i think they scored
10:52 pm
a homerun when they brought him on because he had a very he already had a following and that's what you want when you bring people into the show and i'm just that i will no longer get to hear your rants about his rants you know it's very matter you know but i think that your media criticism what you brought to the table was really possible because he brought it to the table and that's a ping it's making me really so you're saying i will have a job or i have to hire you want to talk about a lesson for you know that you know there are plenty of things that you'll be able to comment on i just specially enjoyed your column that's when i heard you know i actually enjoyed you know anyone who lives here it was part of mr have to find another time. i mean although he was running out of new ones because you kept on ripping them so. i hope there are multiple ok so let's go on to something else that happened today on t.v. this was on morning joe on m.s.n. b.c. when some not nice things were said about the president. when the seven second delay today. i want to characterize how i thought the president the eight. we have
10:53 pm
every coming is that right alex yes sure they could go for it but he was quite a bit yesterday oh my god i believe that. noise what do you do it i think the president can i can't believe. we are so the messed up thing about this story is of course that it was just scarborough that was egging him on and telling him to do it and they're like yeah we have the delay and then once he said he goes i can't believe you actually do need anyone to meet it and mark halperin even though it was a bad comment is the one that got indefinitely suspended and nothing happened to joe scarborough but. sorry last last we're going to say about this we were talking about this all morning is that i understand you're not supposed to say things like that there's a certain. decorum that's involved in washington but it boggles my mind that people can go on fox news that they call people socialists and nazis and baby killers you know that's all that's ok but then a cuss word isn't i mean there's
10:54 pm
a certain there is a certain level of professionalism you're going to expect from the guy that you know is often doing stand ups and part of the white house and also i mean i will also note that joe scarborough show is one of the best shows on m.s.n. we see i mean i really love it but joe is always yelling at me i mean you know there he the media and they are going back and forth all the time to think that this is like the tip of the iceberg just kind of i don't know if he was lying because. the issues are you know i mean honestly if i have two things i just i have two things to say about this one just tie was horrible and vibrating and he should know better and to hear it afterwards that he had every intention of him saying that on air and that he wanted it to happen which you know whatever potato to say i kind of give some you see a little credit because at least they do stick to a standard they have a standard that they regularly enforce as far as kind of being the image they want but do you think it was scarborough is something you would for doing that mark
10:55 pm
halperin was a bit of it there for doing that i mean which one was actually i think joe's more like. going to the question a lot and where he got his ear about it and i'm not i'm not calling anyone anything ok i think that they both it's one thing whatever it was about the word that he used it was who he was referencing was that was you can call anybody else a word but when it comes to the president what i like are you going to have to play through this i mean not everybody has that there is a reason to start coughing up a storm so you can call there was here in washington sorry not a problem helping us at the f.e.c. because he's trying to start a super pac and look at what actually happened. moments ago the federal election commission made their ruling ladies and gentlemen i'm sorry to say. we won. that. the crazy thing to me about this is that we see stephen colbert on capitol hill
10:56 pm
before now we see him here that you see emmy and he's a comedian it's all part of entertainment but then suddenly you can see how far it actually goes to where he's essentially done something that's a groundbreaking where now the fair election commission has granted him his own super pac and a lot of people are you know worried about his own super pac and basically three commercials for it during his show i mean i think this is a little over the line and i think that it's crazy that it started out i'm assuming that's him making a joke about how you can just buy our entire electronic process these days and now he's actually doing it and i find that kind of scary ok people spend more on potato chips than they do on campaigns in america ok it's not it's not a diet american media and average and yeah ok what about moderation no what i'm saying is that you know if your premium is that low in comparison to other things that you consume really not that big why do you have good things or you know because of the concern is that he's part of the you know they think of this opens
10:57 pm
the door to media organizations so then you can have employees of those media organizations who are anonymously donating and that becomes you know a bit of a an epic say i hear what you're saying i think that there are so many other i mean this is stephen colbert doing something a little bit silly we have governments trying to trying to enforce laws preventing citizens from banding together and having political speech we have governments trying to undermine how people campaign and run against incumbents we have governments doing things like this i am less concerned with stephen colbert doing the silly list of the stuff that i care about i mean you know i didn't see it through the years but it still bothers me is that we have governments state governments are trying to tell people they should leave the one on the side of the road and let them die if you think i've got it right here you. are you guys thanks for joining us tonight. it's morning and it makes me come back tomorrow maybe jacobson from new media strategies to get me back for our first bit edition of happy hour in the meantime though for just about fab a lot of shell on facebook and follow us on twitter and have missed any of the
