as we were discussing earlier on is on now only the new york what's been happening there because just a month ago as we said the city's deadliest attack since nine eleven took place. mr safe had been planning this for a number of weeks who did this in the name of isis. well joining us live with the latest details on this and. correspondent caleb moore thing i can't what more details do we know in light of what's been said by the authorities well right now i'm standing on eighth avenue in manhattan i am a new just a block away from where me and to ensure a place not all around me and i can see a lot of the fire trucks and our larger fire department being recalled n.y.p.d. of course now the straight out of the incident took place around the plant authority building is actually blocked off and there's just a rara down a police making sure no one gets into that area that a lot of firefighters were our new york city police department our joint terrorism task force other forces are on the scene our lot of people are gathered trying to get information about what occurred. but according to th

this is new york.s that we are a target by many who would like to make a statement against democracy, against freedom. we have the statue of liberty in our harbor, and that makes us an international target. we understand that. with the internet now, anyone can go on the internet and download garbage and vileness on how to put together an amateur-level explosive device. and that is the reality that we live with. the counter reality is that this is new york and we all pitch together and we are a savvy people and we keep our eyes open and that's what see something, say something is all about. and we have the best law enforcement on the globe. and we're all working together extraordinarily well. i want to thank the mayor and the mayor's office for doing a great job this morning. and we'll go forward and we'll go forward together. all the service will resume. let's go back to work. we're not going to allow them to disrupt us. that is exactly what they want. and that's exactly what they're not going to get.

now let's return to our breaking news story also it is in new york have confirmed that they believe a blast on the subway it was an attempted terror attack they also said that a low tech device was detonated and police also confirmed that one person also a suspect has known life threatening injuries along with three other people. and here we can see what's believed to be a video of the botched attack you can see here hello by a crowd of point smoke and people fleeing the scene well as the smoke clears one person can be seen lying on the ground and. no you know we're going to have another problem. well let's discuss this further with our correspondent jacqueline vega was jackie we've seen the pictures then haven't we have new woman can you tell us well things are do you sort of returning back to normal we do have information that the port authority station the bus station main bus station in new york city has reopened and they're working on getting the metro back to full service it all started this morning at seven twenty am when the police were called after reports of an explosion tha

new york. and an important city but the thing most incentive and global and national context that we already worked out. so we did. it took a while to change course and a lot of the work that we've done was available or nestling inside of that there was a lot of it had to be done so we did it and that was "gotham". and now we have an event, got two and the question immediately arises, new , where is volume 3 going to be? somebody says that the rate you're going it will be 2042 before you get around to it . and mildly reassuring, you just say that in fact he had or i had now because it was a solo operation, i had the second volume would go tothe end of the second world war, 1945 . and it became clear that, this is a know another reason it was so bloodied big compared to the other one in terms of time duration, there was an avalanche of work that's been done on all of the arenas in which i tried to keep up. economic history, political history, social, architectural, poetry, etc. so there was a fl

york as well. what does this say about the house investigation, the way that this is taking place, the speed which it's taking place and geography as well? >> so this is it an investigation going on since march. might have been one, two interviews a week, weeks they didn't do any at all. now in the month of december we've had daily inter vurks sometimes two a day. one day this week we had three in one single day. so democrats are saying, as you heard just now, this is evidence that republicans are trying to rush this investigation prematurely to a conclusion. and the types of interviews they are having are not in significant. don junior this month. donna mcgraph gate keeper. these are not in significant witnesses. so it tells us that perhaps it is true they are trying to wrap this off. >> let me ask you about ron a graph. what transpired? >> well, sounds like it was another long day of questioning, perhaps eight hours. but what was unusual about this interview taking place here in new york, as cong

certainly in new york state more generally but probably in new york city even more so. >> i think there is anxiety around testing and the roles of testing. i think there is a sense that filling out bubbles endlessly is not productive. i would agree. that it is not productive. i think just because a test is multiple-choice does not it's -- you can have high-quality i'm making a poor multiple-choice test. you can pour short response test are really thoughtful interesting and engaging problems. the problem is not the formant the test commits the quality of the question is have to ponder. i think the new york state tests are relatively good test. i think the mathematics test is not sufficiently difficult. i think i'm the only person boost math test are not hard enough. a lot of the test anxiety is misplaced. we do not get these outstanding results to through test prep. we get that because our students are reading a poem a day and their learning how to write and learning mathematical reasoning. you cannot bases, cortes lester in instruction every hour every day strong. you also can i get the

she also has a recent op-ed piece in "the new york times." judge scheindlin, thank you for joining us. talk about what is happening now with the federal judiciary. right now. happening as you already said, at record speed. you mentioned 12 circuit judges have been confirmed. the previous high was three,and obama got three circuit judges confirmed in his first year. so we're seeing a rapid effort to pack the courts with what can only be termed a very conservative judges and justices. we have one supreme court justice and everybody pays a lot of attention to that, but the reality is, the lower courts is where the action is. circuit courts, they write 60,000 opinions. 62.eme court right the final word in most cases is that the appellate level. the trial court write several hundred thousand opinions per year. 170e are a total of about nine circuit judges throughout the country. 677 district court judges. as you know, supreme court vacancies are very rare. so if those lower courts become filled with very conservative judges them all of whom have l

new york became, i focus on this when i talk about margaret moncrief because her store in new york, shewas, they lived in new york, she and her family. then the americans were in the early stages were in control. the a british, their initial strategy was yet to get control of new york city and the hudson valley. so because of events she is kind of stuck behind enemy lines in new york city. so in lower manhattan with the american officers, with washington and the other officers. her father is with the british army on staten island as they are massing forces. so through her we get this sense of what new york was like as a civilian and it was really places. it had been, there had been a lot of suffering building up to this point, so there was this city of disease and despair. but right beside it was the city of 20,000 or so troops and officers. in the british officers created their own little universe where you could buy french furniture and you g could go to the theatr and you could play billiards. and that was for a short time that was margaret's world. so new york in the times was those

under new york law, if i am 16 years old, i am not allowed to drive in new york city. i am prohibited from driving in the city, yet with my georgia license i can drive around. yorke legislature new found that was accommodation, privilege. craig stone to recognize the licensure, the traffic laws of new york continue to apply. >> the difference here is that there is no federal constitutional right to drive a car. there is a federal constitutional right to keep and bear arms. therefore, the ability to transport that firearm if the concealed carry permit has been granted to the individual by a state that has been through a process that will make that determination, the gentleman from new york brought up the wisconsin determination which is correct, that they have determined there be no minimum firearm.ssess a wisconsin is not the first one to the game on this. they are the 34th state to permit individuals to possess firearms based upon no minimum age requirement. however, wisconsin has an age 21 concealed carry permit. so someone shows up in new york and they have conceale
