10:31 am
heartbreaking thing i've ever seen in my life it was so it was beyond traumatic you know we will felt by the state before and after the fire good food changed everything you talk politics now and how we can take power. if we continue to stand and make the noise and not shut people out we can change this community. we need to realize that collectively we have real power we real real power to shape our destinies and to be our designs of offbeat so we need to seize these opportunities and move. donald trump pounds or did an investigation into his own investigators and his or independent inspector general will now look into whether the f.b.i. has twenty sixteen probe into alleged russia collision was legal and this kind of
10:32 am
open explains it's starting to become difficult to find someone that hasn't been caught up in the wave of suspicion that the u.s. department of justice is currently expanding its investigation into whether or not its investigation of donald trump is legal are you confuse don't worry so are lots of americans but this is just a slice of the pie political leaders on both sides of the aisle are being investigated for criminal offenses with their opponents calling for them to be locked up make america great again. that's. our president and the media is fantasizing about seeing him in handcuffs but if he fires any secret service agent who would allow the federal marshals and one of the ultram simply decides i don't have to follow the law i refuse to be held under the law no marshal can get into this white house and any secret service agent that defies me is fired well at some point he's going to have to come out of the
10:33 am
white house thomas old nemesis isn't in the clear either i think that there is a lot to investigate. she may not be in the headlines very much after her electoral defeat however we did find out last week that she's still under investigation much to the delight of donald trump who once promised to put her behind bars it's just awfully good that someone with the temperament of donald trump is not in charge of the law in our country because you'd be in jail secretary clinton. and then there's obama's tops by john brennan the former cia director he was concerned about because of known russian efforts.
10:34 am
trump called him a disgrace to the american intelligence community and one former u.s. attorney thinks he ought to be assembling a legal team n.b.c. news is consultant the former director of the central intelligence agency the most partisan hack leader of the cia in history needs a very very good lawyer criminal lawyer yes criminal oh yes and then there's devon noone is now he's been digging up dirt on the intelligence community but now he's got some of his own we are going to get the documents. members of congress want him to be looked into basically what he has done is he has got old and put a cloud over his own investigation and he has become the subject basically he
10:35 am
should be investigated it's a real problem investigations are flying like bullets in a western a shootout high profile politicians are being accused of breaking u.s. laws and could face legal proceedings this is leads fighting one another and this kind of legal war and that has nothing to do really with the american people and it's a great distraction actually from the issues that are important to the american people but it's consuming the white house now consuming the f.b.i. it's consumed the democratic party is enormous tension between both sides if things are pretty ugly right now pretty ugly between the sides and i think it's going to get worse i really do is this just politics look at some of these charges actually stick. artsy new york. the syrian army says it's driven islamic state on to its final enclave need to mount the development means that all areas around the syrian capital and now back under government control local journalist mohammed ali brings us this report from the newly

10:41 am

agency known as bound for is looking into what is reportedly a mass bribery scandal possibly involving over a dozen migrant office centers in the country the country's interior minister has said the extent of the problem could have consequences for him too as an internal investigation gets underway into claims immigration officers were giving people asylum illegally this comes after a reported one thousand two hundred asylum applications were approved without grounds between two thousand and thirteen and two thousand and sixteen in the city of bremen one former official and five other employees are being investigated the federal migration agency also plans to review about eighteen thousand previously approved applications and the agency's head said it could see some migrants had their status is revoked. we're continuing to review our positive decisions made
10:43 am
by the agency branch in bremen these are about eighteen thousand cases since two thousand and five have the occasions don't meet the necessary criteria google consider whether these decisions to grant asylum should be cancelled were all the also considering sanctions against certain employees of the federal office for migration and refugees. and the scandalous sparked outrage even among some left wing politicians in berlin. it's questionable whether the events in bremen were really the exception trust in the federal office for migration refugees or shaken we won the office for migration and refugees to be able to work in accordance with the law starting now and not just a few years from now the allegations against the migration agency come as confidence in the body is that with eighty percent of germans saying that trust has run out and your political consultant rayna office gave us some additional in-flight thoughts on the scandal. seekers have said that they have paid one
10:44 am
thousand euros to their lawyer and they did not even have to show up in the man and it's obvious that claimant has taken asylum decisions far too hastily without making also security background checks this might only be the tip of the iceberg and many more similar cases may have occurred in other. dependencies the bomb itself is not the real problem what is the real scandal is that the detection of the problems has occurred already in twenty fourteen and nothing has been done by bombs by the former minister of interior. which down to germany's migration body to clarify exactly how many of its branches are under scrutiny well get back to you as soon as we get a response. well that's the headlines for best i will be back at the top of the
10:45 am
hour with all the latest join is then if you can. we are now experiencing the end of a thirty year bull market in bonds which means we're entering a period of rising interest rates and so the urgency to get deals done before that any cost is applied toward financing whatsoever needs to happen quickly so i predict in the next twenty four months you're going to see the biggest wave of mergers and acquisitions ever in history by a factor of ten as just thirty or forty percent everything that's traded out there gets gobbled up and taken private. when else truths seem wrong. but old rules just don't hold. any old
10:46 am
belief get to shape out these days comes to agitate and engage with equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. i. know this is bone bias broadcasting around the world from washington d.c. i'm bart chilton thank you for watching coming up today there is more media merger
10:47 am
news breaking today we'll get up to speed with margot sussed from american university and there's another media merger battle going on regarding c.b.s. steve lomas bird helps us understand the lay of the land on what has become a personal feud for control of the media giant plus lou we look at wells fargo and consider how things got so bad for the bank and there's more trade war news on china alex my hyla which brings us up to speed first let's get to some stories topping today's business in financial headlines. the chief executive of campbell soup company denise morrison is seeking other opportunities morrison who had been c.e.o. since two thousand and one resigned abruptly last week with the news breaking on friday campbell's released a statement shortly thereafter citing unacceptable earnings results ms morrison had notably championed an attempt to steer the company's image and product lineup away from their iconic canned soup line up towards fresher and healthier options it
10:48 am
doesn't appear to have worked so far based upon the numbers at least and the numbers as we like to say here matter the company now includes a fresh sector that manages the bolthouse farms brand juices or similar products plus campbell's fresh seems to have lingered on the shelf longer than the competition with the unit posting an operating loss of new. hundred million dollars in the first quarter of the year. and general electric is a merging its troubled rail operation g.e. transportation with locomotive manufacturer web tek in an eleven billion dollar deal g.e. will receive two point nine million dollars in much did capital from the deal as well as a fifty point one percent stake in the merged company though only nine point nine percent of that will be held by g.e. with the remainder going directly to g.e. shareholders web tech formerly known as westinghouse airbrake technology corp will
10:49 am
keep its c.e.o. the merger is the first major move by a new c.e.o. c.e.o. of g.e. john flannery who has signaled that he wants the spin off significant portions of g.e. sprawling corporate structure investors expect mr flannery to share plans for g.e.'s keep our health care and aviation units by the end of next month while plans for fixing g.e.'s long term financial services are expected to take a little longer. and there continues to be breaking media merger mania news two stories today are making headlines both doors of all comcast the largest and the company in the world by revenue the largest cable company by revenue and many know comcast by the x. finity brand just behind a t. and t. comcast is the second largest pay t.v. company and the largest u.s. cable t.v.
10:50 am
and home home user of internet the news today is that you can regulators say that they will not raise and i trust your public interest concerns over the comcast bid to buy british broadcaster sky for thirty one billion dollars here to discuss is marcos oscar the professorial lecturer at american university thank you again for being with us what's going on well this news today really opens the door for what could be a really major deal for comcast to buy part of sky and really take its business out of the united states and into the u.k. as well as germany and austria so i think media watchers around the world are seeing this this u.k. decision that they will not fight any any comcast purchase of this part of sky and they're saying this has a real. you know a real shake up of the media conglomerates when they say that it didn't raise
10:51 am
public interest concerns is that the same as antitrust concerns over here that's right it's similar and i think that what you have to remember is that rupert murdoch's fox and fox company twenty first century fox own still a majority stake of sky so we have to remember this and it has been trying to get back the remaining are thirty nine percent of a season and it's been trying to present a sky that's right excuse me and they've been trying to get back. one hundred percent ownership of this for the last few years and remember the fox went through a pretty big phone hacking scandal back in two thousand and fifteen which kind of put the brakes on a lot of its of its business decisions so what has happened is they have been actively pursuing this and regulators have said that they don't want the murdoch's to have in the u.k. they don't want the murdoch's to have that much control over the media that it has in the u.k. so they've said continuously said it looked like they would not greenlight that
10:52 am
kind of a sale of the remaining shares of sky back to back to fox so now what you have is comcast essentially getting the green light that rupert murdoch has been waiting for for several years really interesting case but you know comcast is a big but it's not big news twenty first century fox so it just appears that the concerns about public interest or antitrust just weren't that high least for the british regulators and of course in the because they have different that comcast doesn't have the same stake in europe that it has here in the united states i think that for the u.k. it's just not a question of a monopolistic practices they're not going to have that much control they don't have any control over print to the same way that rupert murdoch's fox company has so i think that there's just not as much of a concern for comcast to go in and take take over that part of sky interests and the other story breaking news today is that comcast wants to once again horn in on an offer that disney is making to buy twenty first century fox for fifty two
10:53 am
billion bucks we've reported on that before but it seems comcast bowed out due to some regulatory concerns i don't really understand and now they're back what do you make of it well i think that what your viewers have to keep in mind is that june twelfth is a key date in all of these discussions we should that's right that's when the department of justice is going to say whether or not the time warner merger is going to be able to move through and most people think that at most. industry insiders think that the department of justice will allow that merger to go through and that comcast is now waiting with what what industry insiders have said is a sixty billion dollar all cash offer that they're prepared to make for the fox properties that are going to go on the chopping block that disney has wanted since december so it's going to be fascinating to see what's going to happen with with this deal and whether or not there's value in the all cash offer whether or not shareholders want to see some growth in they want the stocks and whether or not
10:54 am
those are going to increase over the next you know five to ten years really just so much interesting moving forward but i think that eighteenth tee time warner deal is going to be key to see how that moves forward and whether or not comcast thinks it will be able to get through regulatory hurdle just real quick we only got about fifteen seconds left but sometimes these seem like these are very personal decisions not just business decisions and we're talking about murdoch's the raj don't sext tricks and i just wonder sometimes you get what's called the winner's curse that is you may win the merger deal but you may have overpaid is that something that could happen here i mean all anyone needs to do is google a oh well time warner and they can see what a bad deal looks like but that being said i think global entertainment is the future of media and i think that these guys personal or are not these guys understand that that is where the growth is it's overseas. we really appreciate you being here professor lecturer at american university thank you so much my pleasure thank you. and pay per view has been the way the vast majority of
