that is the biggest event from the of the day they will be marching down to wall street and of course because this is an occupy wall street movement they're going to get closer again to the cloudy part to wall street to where the bankers are based to really the core of what the anger of these people is about so how events unravels there that's i'm sure some of the protesters don't even know they're heading down there and we're going to have to wait and see what takes place we know we'll be bringing our viewers everything that happens the minute it takes it takes place where we definitely will be watching and waiting to see what unfolds on the ground it was r t correspond. from new york cuts cuts and more cuts in the u.k. david cameron has tackled the economic crisis by making drastic government cuts across the board his austerity measures are set to cut one fifth of all public spending by two thousand and fifteen or giving tax breaks to the wealthiest citizens in the u.k. but the prime minister's so-called debt reduction and austerity plan has backfired the unemployment rate has now surpassed that of the u.s.

was can i ask you as roddy and i were two of the founding members of occupy wall street back in september last year. what impact do you think occupy wall street has had on the spheres that you that you exist in and work in well you know. occupy was your most significant things or has had. and in this nation last forty is calm. and it's in its in its infancy what is required of occupy wall street is to begin to and as everyone has been saying this we have to begin to identify those goals and objectives as you have been doing and pushing ahead to the forefront so the people understand the purpose and meaning of the to understand it because the ninety nine percent who unfruitful had been the practice came face to long to find jobs to find decent housing you understand most but just as importantly how do we commit those things how do we move it because you know people are very concerned because it affects them but how do we connect up with those people and let them see the direct relationship and how specific the act.

that's the beginning of the action in new york city by occupy wall street and already a major streetblocked off all of the traffic right here waiting to get through but they say that because about two hundred fifty people watching the street right now and only imagine i sit there like you get considering the fact that you have more people are expected to want to talk with you later on throughout the day challenging corporate personhood challenging the big body was ignited nine. thirty occupy it was. out. in the city i think it's really great to get everyone together in one place and see the potential that we as individual humans can have to create new systems by just coming together and making things happen with office workers looking down on them does. that the company inside. immigrant workers one of the major issues of maybe a sacred place one hundred one. where one of the. people. here everywhere getting ready. to have we do remember of course that ever since occupy wall street party member last year as many as twenty one hundred people have so far already been arrested something

think it's occupy wall street. i think they may be a link, you say some things, but the factor investigation. what bill said to me earlier is they think there is money behind these people. do i believe anarchist, people engaged in violence or intimidating bill o'reilly taking his kids to a play is occupy wall street? no. most americans are upset at wall street we know here. your pals. i think that is crazy. the second thing to say is i don't see republicans repudiating tea party type. >> you are going to compare attacking sides to blow up a bridge? >> juan: attacking sides? i can compare people spitting on people. >> greg: show me the spitting. show me the spitting. >> juan: i can show you racist e-mail. i can show you bad behavior. >> greg: i'll wait for them.

since the beginning of occupy wall street lasts. roughly twenty one hundred people have been arrested throughout the u.s. in the tourist incidents of police brutality. with dozens more last night the question now is whether the new took over american streets only day will continue with the seeing force to become a tangible next step of the american people taking the sting back. from space you took you know fourteen. all right so may first known elsewhere as international workers day is over but what did it accomplish and what's next in the struggle for workers' rights and for a change in the system many say benefits the one percent and not the ninety nine percent some say louder action is needed others an overhaul in the system and let's go to new york now and speak to george martinez an occupy wall street activist also adjunct professor at pace university and he's also running for congress in new york's seventh congressional district hey there george i guess just give me a breakdown on what you saw yesterday is occupy back in full f

they are ducking away from occupy wall street. i'll make the point. i support occupy wall street.ople make it and poor people don't. democrat is incorrect again. erroneous i'm going to dana perino. >> dana: my lowlight reel from the white house would be extensive and something you could make fun of for days. sometimes you get a question where you are like, when you are answering it you think like what is the three days from now what are they going to ask me? i think three months ago when occupy wall street was all that and they were living in the rei tents, that was longer ago i guess. maybe in the fall. but now it look like they're tarnish and they back away and sometimes you don't have a good answer. >> bob: time for greg to talk about defecating. >> greg: okay. anytime? here is the thing, i am beginning to sympathize with the democrats at this point. look at occupy wall street as the abusive ex-husband. a couple of years ago they were in love with him. everything was peachy. he was so good looking and now he is crazy and nuts and don't know what to do. you should have listened

are coming up next our special report on the american spring on the history of the occupy wall street movement movement that continues to struggle against corruption. up up up up up. up up. a lot of my colleagues have had the time i still have a daughter to let me go to head up my gut tells me out of the till i come back for you haven't spotted. the toxic gas. it was. mostly going to go but i wanted to sell me a new strap people. cut. and as you know it was bleeding when the cops along with all the folks that yeah it's it's unfortunate you know it's it's always a system brutalize yeah. and the press were spread exact. they don't like to make the connections that we're now descending into a police state yeah yeah yeah now they'll never know it's really like the neo liberals like they want less government except a bigger police yet right to enjoy using women's bodies yeah if they want to be more intrusive on everything except you know. social services sure you know the stuff that actually makes differences in people's lives. such as. six six six six six six six six six. oh here. he. is

wall street. people released before clinton over which saw nine arrested with the new vigor with which people what is the street is this a new dawn for occupy wall street the problems are real and they persist and they're getting worse the problem. kleptocratic banking elite confiscating well. and and this is causing economic to wrest. the wealth inequality continues to be a major issue for the working and many non working americans that well be more hundred americans hold as much wealth as the bottom hundred fifty million of these protesters see the politicians turned a blind eye to the needs of the people as they promote the interests to rule. the system the demonstrators see as broken and corrupt not with the democrats and republicans but both disappear into some nasty. you know what it wanted dante circles we're going to shut down. since the beginning of occupy wall street last september roughly twenty one hundred people have been arrested throughout the us in the tory of incidents of police brutality. were dozens more last night the question now is whether the move that took over american streets on may day will continue with the scene

i think there are lots of elements and people who are involved in occupy wall street involved here. cupy wall street, i think, was really an expression of american discontent over the fact that they are, you know, wall street gets away with murder. you know, people on the right didn't like tarp and the big bailouts for the wall street folks. wall street folks too big to fail. >> laura: long way from tarp debate. >> i think, in fact, there is a lot in common between the kind of anger we see between tea party -- these folks in chicago are not occupy wall street. i think they are anarchists and they should be condemned and the president should condemn them. >> laura: mary katharine, what do you make of this? this movement is kind of scattered. really nativitiy, kind of blackhawk block group and there is occupy people and then there are immigration activists having some rally in crete illinois, today with 800 bed detention facility being debated. seems like they're all over the place on what their goals are. >> yeah, but i think it's fair to say if occupy wall street and the anarchists a

no, my friends this is an occupy wall street alert. here we go again. welcome, everyone, i am neil cavuto and occupy wall street now occupying the country the rally that has police saying "really," and my shell is all over it. a lot of disruptions and bridge blocking but this time, across 100 plus united states cities. >>guest: they were expecting thousands to show up and only 200 people showed up, and they were hoping to revitalize the movement but there just wasn't that energy there and it seems the people who are left in the movement are the extreme radicals. >>neil: you talked to them? >>guest: yes. >>neil: this is from today? >> corporations are buying the lobbyists, and they are drawning out the voices of ordinary americans. >> we are picketing bank of america. we want them broken up because they are too big. if you are too big to fail you are too big to be a corporation. all from stories i have heard, honest stories, bank of america kick people out open street, closing up parents' house and general corruption and i learned what they are doings try

i think there are lots of elements and people who are involved in occupy wall street involved here. cupy wall street, i think, was really an expression of american discontent over the fact that they are, you know, wall street gets away with murder. you know, people on the right didn't like tarp and the big bailouts for the wall street folks. wall street folks too big to fail. >> laura: long way from tarp debate. >> i think, in fact, there is a lot in common between the kind of anger we see between tea party -- these folks in chicago are not occupy wall street. i think they are anarchists and they should be condemned and the president should condemn them. >> laura: mary katharine, what do you make of this? this movement is kind of scattered. really nativitiy, kind of blackhawk block group and there is occupy people and then there are immigration activists having some rally in crete illinois, today with 800 bed detention facility being debated. seems like they're all over the place on what their goals are. >> yeah, but i think it's fair to say if occupy wall street and the anarchists a

movement and there's the there's the united states communist party somehow take taking part in occupy wall street or whatever. well we have a very positive attitude towards. occupy wall street in our opinion to change the conversation in the country from a sturdy to inequality and as you probably know inequality has grown tremendously over the past thirty years since the election of ronald reagan. and it's getting worse even in the midst of this economic crisis. the ones who benefited from it are the the wealthiest americans working people though are in very difficult straits now unemployment officially is around eight percent and officially it's nearly double that so the occupy movement has three some important questions about the conditions of working people inequality unemployment so it's been a very positive development in this country in cardenas there involved in the occupy movement both here in new york as well as around the country. may first is the day of working class solidarity so what are the conditions of the working class in today's america doesn't need someone of solidarity in our.

activists could replace scary muslims as the so-called new face of homegrown terror i think that occupy wall street is dealing with big enough issues and there are enough people who are committed enough to the movement that it probably will have political prisoners maybe sooner than later occupy cleveland issued a statement saying that while the five men arrested were associated with the movement they were in no way representing or acting on behalf of the group and f.b.i. spokesperson also said the incident was not an occupy movement wants facts which so far have not stopped many from branding occupy with an unfavorable staying very important i.r.t. new york. and we want to look a little deeper into the entrapment aspect of this case many facets of the government not to mention wall street of course are ready for the occupy wall street movement to go away and it's not just the so-called dirty hippie disruptors of the piece being targeted since i live and hundreds of muslims have been targeted as well with similar tactics like using so-called informants oftentimes sending them into mosques to try to

held the power accountable this will continue this is also a message that activists for the occupy wall street movement have been screaming from the rooftops but in many cases no one wanted to hear jessica graca is an activist with occupy wall street is also a writer for the daily coast and jesse this is not exactly rocket science here right when you let the big banks get bigger they're going to continue to make big gambles with other people's money. absolutely this is what we've been saying from day one their business strategy hasn't changed at all it's really about the risk on this one a two billion dollar deals if you were for me and you lost two billion dollars guess what step in my office you're fired now these guys were able to cover this but what happens the next bit whatever to next on those ten billion or a trillion dollars i'll tell you right now they're going to go with their had their hands of the taxpayer say oh i'm too big to fail can you bill me out again and i shudder to think we'll have because i don't think the scotch is going to accept that but certainly a lot of people just

we witnessed to what happened in zuccotti park and certainly occupy wall street changed the national talking about the income gap, the president talking about everyone having a fair shot. what do you think? does occupy have to go big today or go home? if there isn't a hume sort of outpouring of support for this, do they -- can they carry this into the conventions into the summer, into the time before the elections? >> one of the big questions around thanksgiving time, would they hibernate forever or come out at the end of the winter, the spring? some point they have to alie themselves, as painful as it can be, with a political agenda to get their agenda pushed forward with the mainstream. they're going to struggle to get their numbers up. they're going to struggle to get their message out until they get a care is mattic lead where get toque with politics. that doesn't mean they can't do it, but people will be waiting to, see, how what? the aenger's out there. where do we take it from here. >> steven, you were close to zuccotti park. >> i talked to a couple of people a few times, i tho

address but some allege it's been starved of staffing and momentum since then some members of occupy wall street have offered to help but they haven't necessarily been well received we'll talk to two of them let's get to today's capital account. so just yesterday ben bernanke in a speech was talking about how conditions in the banking system have improved significantly over the past few years how banks capital and liquidity positions have really improved how the quality of loans and assets on banks' balance sheets has improved he said it all in his speech we covered it then what do you know after that yesterday the bank that touts itself as having the quote unquote fortress balance sheet j.p. morgan has a surprise conference call to announce significant mark to market losses at least a two billion dollars trading loss on credit derivatives coming from the firm's chief investment office this is of course the now infamous london whale's office this raises a lot of questions about hedging about risk proprietary trading and regulation let's get right to them because joining us is new york bureau chi
