steve: let me talk about two names, one quite familiar, hank aaron, and the other is tony stone. those baseball: women who i stumbled upon were of the in at the fall negro leagues. the negro leagues had been a huge institution in the black community. it provided ownership and upward mobility for business owners, and opportunity to play for black men at the time. coveredk sportswriters the league incessantly but were always pushing for integration with the majors. color robinson broke the line in 1947, and what we see after that is the exodus from the negro leagues of the top-tier talent, and they are largely going into the majors, with no compensation to their teams, the negro leagues are in steady decline and a lot of people are trying to figure out how to save the institution, and they are frankly asking, is it worth saving? pollock,is moment sid who manages the indianapolis cloud, tony stone was a semi pro player at the time and was barnstorming occasionally with main -- with male semi pro teams and he thinks, what if we brought her in? marketf this is the same logic that happ

griff: more than 1,000 doj alumni and media and analysts condemning how the roger stone case was handled. stevetion from lawmakers. we have heard a lot from both sides of the aisle about whether or not roger stone got an appropriate sentence. >> indeed we have. but so far still no public reaction from president trump over this petition signed yesterday by more than 1,000 former doj employees. essentially calling on the attorney general bill barr to resign over the way that he has handled the stone case. now, this petition is pretty long, but it reads in party, quote. mr. barr's actions in doing the president's personal bidding, unfortunately, speak louder than his words. now, these former doj employees are essentially accusing barr of political interference by lowering the prison sentence recommendation for the president's long time associate. four doj prosecutors quit the case over it. now democrats want barr to either testify, resign, or both. >> i would be glad if he resigned. i don't think that's realistic. i would also like him to come to the senate. so we can probe him on the role of the

stone went on trial last november. witnesses included randy, rick gates and steve banion. president trump accused prosecutors of being unfair to stone and questioned why nothing had happened to other key players in the russia investigation. this past monday, prosecutors recommended that stone receive seven to nine years in prison when he is sentenced on february 20th. they wrote in the sentencing memo, quote, roger stone obstructed congress' investigation into russian interference in the 2016 election. lied under oath and tampered with a witness and when his crimes were revealed by the indictment in this case he displayed contempt for this court and the rule of law end quote. early tuesday morning donald trump tweeted that this is, quote, a horrible and very unfair situation and that he cannot allow this miscarriage of justice. the president of the united states tweeted this. tuesday afternoon, the justice department submitted a revised sentencing memo arguing that the original recommendation, quote, could be considered excessive and unwarranted under the circumstances. and

let's bring in a chief economist, a senior market strategist at slate stone wealth and cnbc's steve liesman is here as well. i'm going to begin with you, steve and get you to sum up what you heard the chair say. he sounded more dovish than not. he said nothing about the expansion is unsustainable that's a beautiful use of the double negative i think it means things are pretty good and he seemed -- but nowhere did he suggest that we were going to go close to or into negative interest rates >> no. i think you have to think about where you were -- where the chairman was or the fed policy was before going into this it was a policy that was on hold and thinks that the current policy of 1.5 to 1.75 is appropriate. to the extent they're leaning dovish he mentioned the coronavirus is a potential risk and trade is getting better other risks on the global economy. think of it this way, tyler. if 90 degrees is straight up neutral, beyond the 45 degree mark is leaping to the -- i think it's short of the 45 degree mark. they're leaning to the cut if the coronavirus has a sustained downside risk to the e

they introduced evidence that stone was calling trump, stone was meeting with steve bannon, was briefingt he thought wikileaks had, how they could weaponize that information. so the trial painted an unflattering picture of the trump campaign's zeal to obtain these emails that were stolen by a foreign intelligence service. obviously, the mueller investigation found no conspiracy there. but it was extremely unflattering and judge jackson made reference to that in her closing remarks before she passed sentence where she said that stone was convicted of lying to cover up for the president. the president was brought in as a character into this trial and it may explain in part why he's pushing back so hard against this roger stone case and calling it unfair and political. the judge refuted that today and said roger stone was not prosecuted in any political sense. he was prosecuted fairly and she also credited the jurors for serving admirably and that's important because roger stone has filed a motion for a new trial that she hasn't ruled on and he's alleging juror bias. stone will walk out of

an aide to steve bannon sent an e-mail to roger stone saying well done. well done. what do you think he meant by that. roger stone was telling the campaign he was coordinating through back channels with wikileaks but he lied about that to investigators. he was tried for lying and witness tampering and convicted. prosecutors recommended he be sent to prison for up to nine years. yesterday trump tweeted the sentence was horrible and very unfair. later the justice department said they would change the sentencing recommendations. now the trump department is recommending far less than the original recommendation. now it is in the hands of a u.s. district judge who the president is now attacking on twitter and denied roger stone's new request for a new trial. carroll lee reported william barr has taken control of legal matters of interest related to the president. were you surprised to the president completely confirm it after reporting it? >> it is one or the other, right. he will confirm it or call it fake news. it is a toss up every time. >> what do we know about how i

shortly afterwards, steve bannon sent a text message to roger stone that read, quote, well done. huh. well done. what could ydo you think was meant by that? roger stone said he had been coordinating through channels. but he lied about that and he tried for witness tampering and convicted. o two days ago federal prosecutors recommended he be isn't to prison for nine years but yesterday the president tweeted the sentence recommendation was horrible and unfair. and now the trump office is recommending far less than the original recommendation. now it's up to judge amy jackson. attorney general bill barr has taken control of legal matters of interest to trump, including the stone stensientencing. were you surprised to see the president confirm it? >> he's either going to confirm it or call it fake news. it's a toss up every time. >> what do we know about how involved barr and his associates and deputies are directly in the stone case and when that came about? >> so what we know is that there was a lot of back and forth behind the scenes where the prosecutors in the stone case wanted

roger stone, went out on a limb for him and worked for him. steve: for the president.sley: he saw injustice. he is allowed to do that he is the commander-in-chief. he is allowed to point that out. i understand the other side too where bill barr is put in a position where it looks like the president tweeted out and then they are going to go back and review the case and makes him look like he can't do his job. brian: two things the president has ton to make the attorney general's job more i did. one bringing up his name on the phone call in the ukraine with the ukrainian leader. barr said that was not helpful. he did not want his name brought up there because he wasn't involved with it. the first time he heard it was when the transcript was released. he also went on to say the president's tweets make it impossible to do my job. so, that is somebody who is extremely loyal to the president. coming out and saying, mr. president, go ahead, go after bloomberg. have a field day with klobuchar. but when it comes to legal stuff, it really gets complicated because the president r

or that there were emails between himself and steve bannon and rick gates and paul manafort as he reported on all of this to the trump campaign. stone'sffort to obstruct the investigation was deliberate and planned. it was not one isolated incident. it was conducted over a considerable period of time. stone lied and sought to impede production of information to whom, not to some secret anti-tru anti-trump kabbal but to both parties who were confronted with a matter of grave national importance. he was not convicted and is not being -- or for his support of the president's campaign or his policies. stone was not prosecuted for standing up for the president. he was prosecuted for covering up for the president. quote, this case also exemplifies why it is that this system, for good reason, demands that the responsibility falls to someone neutral, someone whose job may involve issuing opinions in favor of and against the same administration in the course of a week, and not someone who has a long-standing friendship with the defendant, not someone whose political career was aided by the defendant, and surely not someone who has personal inv

steve: judge, what do you make of roger stone? to three. >> well seven to nine years is absurd. i think anyone who understands the criminal justice system or even the federal guidelines understands that that was a political vendetta in a sentence that was intended to reflect that. the three years, the three to four years is more consistent with the guidelines is a guy whose never committed a crime before, and you know, the crimes that he committed three to four years is consistent with punishment compared to other defendants. >> lisa: so why do they get so much criticism though? as you mentioned this is more in line with the amended sentencing recommendation, yet everyone lost their mind at the amending, the sentencing, so why? >> well look, what happened was that you have four prosecutors who are very much inclined to seek whatever they could, based upon their hatred of donald trump and anyone connected to him, and when the head of the department of justice comes out and says, well this isn't consistent with the guidelines, they
