everybody has to get involved. >> congressman markey, i have known you forever.e a friend of mine. i watch you fight this fight. i watch the goodwill and the good effort to fight these people, but on the other side of the fight, it's not just always the other side of the aisle, not always republicans, huge amounts of money being paid to congressmen and women running for re-election that says, hands off. don't push this thing, right? >> well, mitt romney was a climate science believer when he was the governor of massachusetts. no republican can be nominated to run for president of the united states if they say they believe in climate science. having a conversation with that mitt romney would be like having a conversation with an empty chair. that governor that we had. he cannot run. it's a party controlled by these interests that want to kill fuel economy standards, wind, solar, geothermal, biofuel, all the things that young people in our country know we have to invest in if they're going to avoid the most catastrophic consequences. there is no emergency room for

paul rye yang is definitely channeling his inner markey mark.y mark pumped iron, so did paul ryan in a photo shoot almost a year ago when the fitness buff congressman was a runner up for time's person of the year. some say by releasing the old photos around times of the vice presidential debate, the editors of time wish to make him look trivial, young and unserious. maybe it's the backwards baseball cap, but when we took the photos out to the street -- >> i have no clue who that is. >> not at all. >> 2/3 of the people we asked didn't recognize him. >> that's mr. shoochuster, matt morrison? >> jeff somebody? he's got a new talk show. >> nah, not jeff probst. >> i think that's the vice president soon to be. >> reporter: the vp candidate's spokesman says this about the photos, paul ryan takes his health seriously. clearly by these pictures he doesn't take himself too seriously. they made him flex and even wink like a certain previous vp candidate. some wonder when are the joe kbiden workout photos coming. the bests we could do is drag outa famous p

massachusetts congressman ed markey says these digital dragnets need to be regulated.s investigators to get a warrant or in the case of emergency sign a sworn statement justifying immediate access to cell phone documents. >> when the police wiretap millions of innocent people if they are able to gain access to your information there is something wrong with that. >> the congressman said his proposed bill has strong bipartisan support but critics say it could create problems for law enforcement. >> criminals can come from just about any place in today's day and age. again, the location device that cell phone offers is good for private business. there is advertising that can be done. things like that. but it's also vital to finding criminals. >> as of now no time limit on how long law enforcement can keep these cell phone records. if the proposed bill becomes law, that is one of the things that would change. trace? >> trace: david lee miller live for us from new york. david lee, thank you. social networking giant facebook reports it now has more than a billion active mont

and let's bring in from boston, congressman ed markey of massachusetts. good afternoon, sir. i want to get your reaction to this, on the issue of climate change. now, as you know, climate change is at our door. sometimes the gop seems to find it the funniest thing on earth, but how does a country fight climate change when it's still trying to convince majorities in the house that it even exists? >> well, governor romney did believe in climate change, when he was the governor of massachusetts. he did believe in, in fact, funding of clean energy companies in massachusetts. but he could not be nominated as the republican for president in 2012 if he continued to espouse those beliefs. >> why? why could he not? why could he not? >> nancy pelosi created a select committee on energy independence and global warming, as soon as we took over the congress in 2007. and she did so in order to ensure that, one, we backed out imported oil, and one of the first things we did was pass legislation to improve fuel economy standards to 55 miles per gallon by the year 2026 and back out all the oi

. >> host: congressman markey recently sent a letter to the fcc asking that it be retained because he says it will stifle competition, lead to higher prices. >> guest: yes. there's certainly debates on, worthwhile perspectives on both sides of this question. he has, as one of the people who helped author this provision, he has advanced that perspective. on the other side of the ledger, folks have argued if you let the ban expire, that increases the incentive for competitors to make their own investments in certain kinds of programming. there's also been the argument that the ban could help promote more competition by making distributers, giving them heightened incentive to distribute the programming. >> host: prior to being appointed to the federal communications commission, ajit pai served as deputy counsel at the fcc. he also worked at verizon. he is a graduate of harvard and law degree from the university of chicago. eliza krigman of "politico," next question. >> yes, a very impressive background for this position. since you have worked as verizon communications, have you been lobb

between 2010 and 2011 as well as from john kerry in 2010 and 2009 almost 5,000 dollars to edward markeystrict during the headquarters. vice president also made a few doe indications most notably giving $2,300 this year representing gary peerts a democrat in michigan the company has to plant. he wrote a letter to energy secretary getting some recovery money. >>> given a 123 gave all of the money now the company is working out a bingsy deal to sell to johnson controls inc. doesn't look like that money accomplished the goal. >> those donations add up to a lot of money. >> the time is 47 after the top of the hour. coming up mitt romney gets his turn at the mike. >> hoping the president would bring joe biden along this evening. he will laugh at anything. >> alec baldwin not feeling the love. steve doocy is on fox and friends. >>> you have been playing clips from the alfred dinner. he sits in the same row as mitt romney and the president of the united states will see what is happening behind the scenes. the filmmaker will be joining us live. larry is going to talk about how the president of t

markey will come a billionaire in his own right said he treated this, suggesting how your employees should exactly to create problems among workers and to reduce productivity. you know, you weren't telling your employees at all how to work, but what is your reaction -- how to vote. what is your reaction to what mark cuban said? >> well, i'm not telling anyone how to vote. is their right to vote the way they choose. and telling them what will happen if, in fact, we don't elect governor romney as president. and four more years, four more years of obama will mean that we are going to have to tighten our belts even further to lay off more people. and once it becomes uncomfortable for me to come to work every day, how seriously think of retiring. lou: as you talk about governor romney being reelected, great questions, particularly in the national media about what will he do, how quickly he can do something. there is no specificity to his program or plan for governance. if elected what makes you so confident that he is the better choice? is it his ideas or simply the experience of the obama poli

i will let go of the markey of bow fort, i will let go of the colonel barron. i will reclaim my furniture and my precious objects in holland. i will go to paris and live in the apartment that i have rented. captain he due will pay me, i will marry my lover and be the happiest woman in the world. she was finally, actually, thinking of settling down. who is this captain? this is where the spider's web truly begins. captain he duke was the head of the cia equivalent of of the time in france. when she went to apply for her permit to go to vitel to visit her wounded lover, she was routinely turned down, so she would simply go and apply at another office. she was very used to getting her own way, particularly when gentlemen were involved. she was finally advised to go to an office that also housed the bureau of foreigners. and when she, her number -- they had a waiting system. when she was called to go into the office, they did not take her to the office where she would apply for her permit. today took her to -- they took her to he due's office, and he recruited her

. >> the waxman-markey cap-and- trade bill passed the house very narrly, 219 to 212. thmembers of the senate who were going to take it up in july went home for the fourth of july recess. and they got an earful from their constituents. >> you don't trust me? (audience shouting "no") >> let's talk about some of your other votes, such as cap-and- trade. (people cheer) >> we are not for more government! >> hockenberry: the tea party saw a frightening expansion of government in the health care plan and the push for cap-and- trade. >> you're a traitor, lindsey graham. you've betrayed this nation and you betrayed the state. >> the people of this country were really not concerned one way or the other on this issue until the economy started going south in 2008. >> hockenberry: was that an opportunity to push back on climate change, the recessio >> it sure was. >> i'm tim phillips, president of americans for prosperity. we're here in billings, montana. >> hockenberry: what part did you play? >> we certainly did tv ads, radio ads, social media. we did rallies, events, we launche

doing that, proved that if they take over the presidency as well, they are going to -- >> congressman markey -- thank you, sir, very much. i'm sure we have to draw it to a close. "hardball" and chris matthews is next. >>> good evening. i'm chris matthews in washington. let me start with this. we've heard the story, how in the winter of world war i, the two sides, german and english, climbed out of their trenches and sang christmas carols together. well, today, an echo of that spirit rose over the jersey shore. two politicians of different parties figuring out how to do their jobs together. say what you will, debbie downers of the world, there comes a time when the grown-ups got to do their jobs. so they put away their toys, their big birds and their bay.nba bayonets and do the business they got elected to. i love politics, and today is one of the reasons. it's not all stupid ads on tv, it's not all handlers and bs artists. some days it's just a job, and some days like today, it's the most important job we've got. joining me to talk about this, this remarkable political moment today that unfo

congressman edward markey of massachusetts sent a letter to the fda saying compounding pharmacies fall into a regulatory black hole. the house committee on energy and commerce has sent out letters to goat the cdc and the fda requesting briefings by the end of this week on this outbreak as this congressional committee investigates it and its root causes. back to you. alisyn: jonathan serrie thanks so much for that. we are going to check back in with the hearings in benghazi. let's listen in and see what is happening. >> i am not prepared to render a formal opinion on whether or not it was premeditated, but i thought it involved a degree of complexity that was significant. >> according to people who were there you called it a terrorist attack. >> oh, that was in a separate statement, yes, sir. >> that's all i wanted to know. >> yes, sir, absolutely. >> okay. because today, ace listeas i listen to people, and you, miss lamb, have said -- you have described these attackers in a number of ways, but you don't mention terrorist at all. why is that? i mean the compound had been attacked once b

though neither would comment what they were longing for, governor ed markey was asking would the newland compounding center skirted federal law. last night's pharmacy, a representative said it was unnecessary. we made clear warrants weren't needed. asking would have produced the same result. nevertheless we continue to offer our cooperation. in addition to the criminal investigation, necc faces a growing number of lawsuits from patients who claim they became ill after receiving the tainted injections. martha? martha: awful story. what about the investigation into the source of this contamination? >> reporter: yeah. as we speak, public health officials continue to look at the source of contamination, injected steroids, believed to have made 233 people ill in 15 states. most o those infections involve fungal meningitis which is blamed for at least 16 deaths according to reporting from state health departments. martha? martha: john, thanks very much. bill: one of the president's top advisors governor romney looked like he was debating candy crowley, the moderator more than the president

neither agency would say exactly what they were looking for, however, previously congressman edward markey had asked the justice department to investigate whether the new england compounding center had skirted federal law relating to controlled substances. a lawyer representing necc suggested last night's federal search of the pharmacy was unnecessary. in the words of paul sorell, we've been clear warrants weren't needed. asking would have produced the same result. nevertheless we continue to offer our cooperation. jenna. jenna: jonathan, what are we hearing from patients who were possibly, possibly infected? >> reporter: well you know the cdc estimates as many as 14,000 people were potentially exposed to tainted medication. now the vast majority of them are likely to go through without developing any symptoms but because the incubation period for these fungal infections is so long, many of them are going to have to wait for weeks and in some cases perhaps months before they know they're in the clear. so people who have gotten sick and those who are simply at risk of getting sick say the m

for google, search as the markey product. but google also is operating systems, e commerce, maps and so on and so forth. for apple grow -- for apple, the marquee product is devices. it also does search, siri, content, e commerce and so on. maps now. not very well, i guess. 5.0.stillo on microsoft -- for amazon, it is e commerce but they both did the other things as well. we can go on and talk about facebook and ebay and so on and so forth. all these competing platforms. these platforms compete with one another on multiple dimensions. it seems clear that each and all of them discipline the market conduct of all the others. it is open to question whether modern economics has the tools or the language to assess inner platform competition. but i think we do know enough to a lease conclude that focusing on market shares in the market for universal search is not going to tell us much about the competitive dynamics of how prices and quality is get determined for any of these. in antitrust when you define markets incorrectly, you ten
