chris has long had a program where just to cross compare there are not double voters toward voting twice but that database has an extremely high error rate. and the danger is it will then be used as grounds to purge order some awfully -- of lawfully without any guard rails how it can be used or stored that we are concerned about packing to have backed centralized database on a computer about the real national security dangers there are concerns how that data is collected and used. >> other colleagues are welcome. >> things to all of you to be here for the work that you do. floating is the most essential and fundamental right behalf to do what we can to protect that right. i am has discouraged as the next person for what we have seen that i want to turn back when the commission came to restate with that troubling testimony to use that background check system and with those suggestions and with those literacy test voter turnout was far higher than it is now. to be clear with those tools used among the jim crow era in they are among the black voters in the south. in their increased by 50 pe

chris coleman's side dominated for long periods but were missing the final touch to punish group d's wales in front before aaron ramsey's deflected strike in injury time sealed a 2—0 win. aleksandar kola rov hampered the republic of ireland's world cup dream as io—man serbia eased themselves to the brink of qualification in dublin. obviously we have a lot of disappointed players, particularly after that performance. it is not just one game, it is how they feel about both games, we must recover from the weekend and that is what we have to do. italy recovered from saturday's mauling by spain to beat israel i—o in their world cup qualifier. leaders spain stay three points clear after thrashing liechtenstein 8—0 away. the spanish are looking untouchable as they head towards the world cup finals. translation: to be close to the objective does not mean anything, we have to finish it. we still have two matches left. the next one is against albania and we must face it with the same mentality we have shown in all our matches so far. being focused and playing good football, that is the only wa

with a president's long liberal are julio rivera editorial director for reactionary times and chris allman conservative commentator and activist thank you both for being with us tonight thank you so much time to have you as the monstrous hurricane are mark hurdles its way through the caribbean toward miami and south florida a new study published in the journal has just revealed how responsible big oil really is for global warming as the study's authors wrote in the guardian their findings show that nearly thirty percent of the rise in global sea level between eight hundred eighty and two thousand and ten resulted from emissions tracing to the ninety largest individual ninety corporations ninety largest carbon producers more than six percent of the rise in global sea level resulting from emissions traced to exxon mobil chevron b.p. the three biggest contributors so should big oil companies be slapped with a carbon tax or should they face the corporate death penalty. chris listen tom let me just say something. ok well let me just start off that listen historical data shows that the sea level

it's just -- the worst is just beginning and who knows how long it will last, chris. >> understood. we're talking hours and hours. different here on the mainland but there is an asset in play. you can't call 911 once the winds get 40 miles an hour. the first responders won't go out. their safety matters. they are the best of us but they have to be there for the rest of us and it just doesn't rhyme, it's real. you do have each other. you get nervous, wem getting a little freaked, reach out to those around you, combine, cooperate, and wait out this storm. bill, we know that you are being safe and you're trying to get to a high point to see what's happening. you said you haven't seen anything in terms of water yet but what is the concern where you are with storm surge and what it could do? >> reporter: well, there are so many different -- all right, here it comes. irma, here we go. yeah, the concern here is that everything is so vulnerable especially the salt water. we're in the northern part of the end of the everglades, that fresh/salt water mix which makes it a great place for biodi

so the long and the short of it is, chris, i don't know what i'm going to be doing. it's a long way away from the election. you'll be one of the first to know. but now is much too early. >> the book reads like a campaign manual. that's all i'm saying, senator. you can yell at me all you want. i still think what i think. >> i'm not yelling at you. i love you. not yelling at you, chris. but if you read the book thoroughly, what it's not about is a person. it's about the need for millions of people to become involved in the political process because right now we increasingly have a political system dominated by a handful of billionaires who spend unlimited sums of money electing folks who want to cut social security, medicare, medicaid and education and give tax breaks to people who don't need it. the anecdote is involving people in the political process. that is what that book is about. >> i hear you. a message and a messenger often go together. i'll take you at your word. we'll see what happens in time. senator sanders, you're always welcome here to talk about what mat

long with chris adams welcome back to on contact let's get back to our conversation with pauline park co-founder of the new york association for gender rights advocates. so we were talking about the democratic party what you describe as this drive to get crumbs by the l g b t community let's let's go back to that idea well as i say while it's true that the obama administration did some good things for the l.g. p.t. community it's also true that the first democratic president who had an opportunity to do things for the community did the opposite bill clinton signed into law the don't ask don't tell bill which is a republican bill same thing with the defense of marriage act absolutely disgraceful i would also point out that when barack obama was elected he really did have a mandate and he ran on a platform which included rights what did he do the only major legislation that's specific that he signed into law was the bill repealing don't ask don't tell. that's good but that's only a negative that's reversing in that video he did nothing to advance and the employment nondiscrimination act

>> absolutely. >> this is something that he will remember for a long time. >> chris, it was remarkableur reporting yesterday. i couldn't turn away. i watched you for hours. it was a little misleading, chris. you have such good balance and balla ballast. if you weren't being knocked off your feet by the wind i would have been blown into a tree had i been standing on that balcony. but you just stood there. he can see how intense the wind was. but you weren't being batted around by it as so many other people. >> reporter: first, let's unpack what you just said. one, preposterous for you to be in a situation like that because you're too valuable. i don't want you to talk to anybody in a situations like that, let a lope be in one. you matter too much to us. ballast is a nice way of calling me fat, ali is son. you called me ballast. i'm 220 pounds. ed lavandara and i were built to stand still in a storm. thank god everything that needed to survive did. alison and i will return right after this. when heartburn hits fight back fast with tums chewy bites. fast relief in every bite. crunchy outs

. >>> we begin with chris sowers tracking this all morning long, you have a look at the path and howuch rain floridians are dealing with >> the update that came in was 11:00 a.m. remains a powerful category 4 storm with winds of 130, those are sustained winds, we're seeing gusts to 160. they're expecting property losses to be extensive, the damages to crop and property. irma made landfall in the lower keys earlier this morning. and now, the eye is starting to parallel the coast. we've been expecting this all morning long, what we've done to make this easier for the viewers. is colorado the cloud tops. the worst part is indicated boy the red. almost the entire lower part of florida at this point. so there's the eye. here is the eye wall. right here and it's just now starting to kind of hug the coast. so as the eye continues to pull to the northwest, hugging the coast, the worst part of the storm currently here, will also pull to the northwest and hug the coast. conditions in marco island, naples, fort myers, fort myers beach extending north to tampa, st. pete, the western shores of th

weekend we will be meeting with leadership of both parties to work on that. >> chris: you have a lot of top priorities. but your long-term top priority right now is tax reform. the white house is pushing that, the president made a new post last week but in terms of details, the administration seems to have been going backwards. i would like to ask you about that, sir. here is what you laid out in april. a 50 percent corporate tax rate, individual tax brackets of 10, 25 and 35 percent. the alternative minimum tax repealed and eliminate or reduced tax rates -- are all of those elements is still in the president's tax reform plan? >> chris, i do not think we would be going backwards it all. as a matter fact i think we've made progress as you know, i've been working on tax reform with the president for over the last year and and a half starting on the campaign. we did to economic speeches in detroit and new york when you're thinking about this during the campaign. now as president, this is also one of his biggest priorities to create economic growth. we been working since january with leadership in the house and senate.

chris covac has long had a program called cross-check where he under the name of stopping mass voter purge is trying to cross compare to ensure there aren't double voters or people voting twice and while that's obviously a noble cause, that database has an extremely high error rate. so much so that states like oregon and florida took themselves out of that database because of the error rate and the danger is that whatever database gets collected, that it will then be used as grounds to purge voters unlawfully off the roles without sufficient checks and guard rails around that. that letter went out without any guard rails about how that data could be used or stored, who would have access to it and in an age where we're so deeply concerned about hacking into our election, having the centralized database on a white house computer certainly does not aswaj those concerns, it's why you saw people like general mckenzie write an op ed about the national security dangers of this. i think there's a lot of concerns right now about how this data is going to be collected and used. >> thank you ve
