. - well, to be fair-- to be fair, michelle, just because this bill is being worked on by only men, doesn't mean that they can't be fair to women. - oh, sure. i mean, they could be fair to us, but this is what they've done so far. - the bill in its current form would hit women especially hard. for example... among others could all be slapped with a pre-existing condition label. opening up the door for insurers to potentially deem them uninsurable. - i'm sorry, you'd have to pay extra for insurance if you get irregular periods? okay, quick glimpse into a ladies life. every period is an irregular period. it's not like a paycheck where it arrives on the same day every month. your period is more like an outdoor cat. you know it's gonna come back at some point, but you're never positive when and you have no idea what it's gonna have in its mouth.

- well, michelle, no, look, i mean, it's funny, but i think you're being a little hard on megyn kellyly? five months ago, she was part of the problem. actually, she was the queen of the problem. now she acts all high and mighty, saying she doesn't watch tv news and she only consumes news by print? this is like finding out ronald mcdonald only eats broccoli raw. and it would be one thing if megyn were owning her past, but instead she's like, "who, me? oh, i never watch that garbage i used to put out." sorry, megyn, you're not the new barbara walters. you're that sprint verizon guy who just follows the money.

your thoughts, michelle? >> wellial media has revealed the true thoughts and feelings and agenda of so many of these supposedly mainstream democrats is very helpful. and i've been tracking the phenomenon of assassination chic for years now. i have an entire chapter in a book i wrote in 2006 called "un "unhinged: exposing liberals gone wild." i do want to make clear, of course, that not every liberal thinks this way, not every democrat thinks this way. but it is remarkable, especially in an atmosphere where we've got the politics of disavowal double standards, disavow, disavow, president trump and every republican and every conservative pundit and public figure is always called upon to disavow every last fringe statement from rhonda people across the country. where is the democratic official disavowal of this woman's death wish for president trump? todd: we've heard nothing from tom perez at the dnc. we did hear -- to be fair, we did hear from claire mccaskell but we've heard nothing from the state so far. trish: what

we are the ones who were talking about changing our relationship but there is pressure on michel barnier as well end will be political. so, the —— the uk once it sooner and the eu is not in such a hurry. so it will be theresa may and the other leaders sitting around seeing what can we achieved and let's talk to the scottish national parties europe spokesperson peter grant who joins me on the line from dundee. david davis is giving michel barnier a hard time? and negotiator has to listen to what the other person is saying and there is no evidence that david davies or anyone else from the uk government has listened to what is coming back from the other members of the european union. that is not surprising because they are not listening to messages from the elected government of scotland and wales. they are not listening to a lot of their own backbenchers. david davies must stop acting like he is a colonial governor general, telling people what to do. he must act like he is ina people what to do. he must act like he is in a difficult negotiation and it is difficult because his party made it difficu

today, not so much >> well, it's not just stocks, as you well know, michelle, and you guys have beenost

well, interestingly michel barnier said that he was prepared to increase the pace of negotiations hereied meeting more regularly. at the moment was scheduled to be one that the negotiations every month the next two rounds are on the weeks beginning the 18th of september nine of october. after that decision has to do be made because towards the end of october there is an eu summit and that is where the other 27 leaders of the you have got to decide, whether the base in progress has been made to me on to talk about trade. if they say no which was being the case in at the moment when michel barnier. then we're looking at perhaps waiting till a summit in december when there are talks about future trading relationships not starting until well into the new year. time is ticking. is it a moment to start panicking? i did think so because nobody thought it would be easy, we are talking about unravelling a0 years of history and partnership and it is an incredibly complicated business. but you could sense in that press conference that the two sides have come from very different positions, this we

thanks, and well done for persevering despite the unintended interruption! michelled her boyfriend to commit suicide, has been sentenced to two and a half years in prison. she was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in massachusetts after he boyfriend, conrad roy, killed himself when he was 18 years old. we can cross now to rajini vaidyanathan in washington. this was a very controversial and very distressing case. in that trial she was convicted last month, the judge decided she was guilty of, as you say, in voluntary manslaughter, in terms of encouraging her boyfriend conrad roy's suicide. the court was presented with dozens of text messages that she sent him, i will share too with you now. in one she said, hang yourself, jump off a building, stab yourself, i don't know, there's lots of ways. in another she asked, how hard are you going to try? ultimately she was on the phone to conrad roy when he was ina car the phone to conrad roy when he was in a car park, and tried to poison himself with carbon monoxide. he was having second thoughts and found michelle carter,

things worked out well for me because i hired the best lawyer in town, a former public defender named michelleoberts. things worked out well for me because i had trial skills. i had literally prosecuted people in the courtroom where i was being prosecuted. things worked out well for me because i had social standing. we made sure that jury knew that i went to yale and harvard. i had these great character witnesses. i knew how to present myself as the kind of black man who adc jury would not want to send to jail. the last reason things worked out well for me is because i was innocent. when i thought about the reasons why that jury deliberated for less than 10 minutes before they came out with a not guilty verdict, the fact that i was innocent did not seem like the most important reason. brian: was there race in the jury? was it a mixed group or all-black? paul: it was predominately african-american. there were some wise, there may have been two or three, but most were african-american. brian: the woman that was involved, detroit, was she in the courtroom? did she testified? paul: she did testify
