alexander acosta to resign.his role in brokering a plea deal for jeffrey epstein in 2008. epstein now faces new charges in connection with running an alleged sex trafficking ring in which he allegedly sexually abused dozens of underage girls. those accusations are very similar to the ones he faced when acosta was involved in this case a decade ago. joining us now with the political and every other kind of implication, we have jess mcintosh, former director of outreach for hillary clinton, margaret senior white house correspondent, and john avlon, cnn political analyst. while everybody was speaking, let's bring everybody up to speed, secretary acosta must step down as u.s. attorney he engaged in an unconscionable agreement with jeffrey epstein, kept secret from courageous young victims, preventing them from seeking justice. this was known by president trump when he appointed him to the cabinet. hash tag, acosta resign. the white house has not said anything about this, and the more that comes to light, the more ba

has tremendous security political and economic interests cyprus seemed to be the point in which alexander downer stuff on help or to buy a cell would and many of these operatives would intersect and when obviously donald trump was elected president after i had been probed by the u.k. for months they asked me to pass along 3 some a's letter of congratulations to president elect trump which i did so clearly the british were keeping tabs not only on me i assume but others and that's what's being called into question but i'm not sure what the russians actually did because i never met a russian official yeah thirdly a lot of foreign governments involved in this through 2 of those names you just mentioned. how because you say that he has given. actions to m i 6 is a bonus so richard did he actually send in the british election the last british election that jeremy cool been the leader of the labor party should not be trusted as a leader of the labor body and was criticised being a head of m i 6 talking like that about a democratic politician who is different what was his relationship with m i 6

in that moment, alexander fleming asked the key question -- hey, what's in that mold? fleming ended up writing a paper about his score of and published in 1929 to not much acclaim and not much notice. but years later, almost a decade later, scientists working at a lab at the university of oxford came across alexander phleflemi paper. they discovered this discovery about the mold killing off the bacteria looked like it might be promising. they started to work on it. in 1939 and 1940 and 1941, they turned that into something promising indeed. the anti-bacterial substance that alexander fleming stumbled upon in that moldy dish a decade earlier was something he called penicillin. by 1941, those researchers at ofo oxford and they figured out how to turn it into a medical treatment and it was close to a miracle cure that could sftop al kinds of infections. think about what that meant at this particular time and place. english researchers developing this miracle medical cure in 1941. england had just gone to war against germany in 1939 and become the second world war. by 1941

tell me about alexander downer was high commissioner commissioner and how quoting to the new york times you were drunk at a meeting with him and how british intelligence appeared to know about this meeting and he. well you allege he passed damaging false woods to the u.s. embassy in the chronology is very important april 20th 2016 i reached out to for the 1st time by the australian government in london where they began to tell me that donald trump was a pariah and that he's a danger to the world and he's going to fact the trans-pacific partnership and up and the security architecture of the world i laughed it off because many foreign governments at that time were basically you know suggesting similar things about him i didn't understand that i was actually being spied on by the australian governments as early as april 2016 may 10th 2016 so approximately 2 or 3 weeks after that initial contact by the australian governments and in between that i had been reached out to by the d.i.m.a. and british intelligence as well alexander downer decides to meet with me as i explain in my book immedia

this is alexander fleming. he was born in scotland in 1881. he was trained as a doctor and a research scientist. in 1914 his career was interrupted when he went to serve in world war i for the duration of the war. returned back in 1819 whereupon he became a professor at st. mary's where he did medical training before the war. alexander fleming's research was about bacteria and viruses and vaccines. in 1928 in his lab at st. mary's, alexander fleming had a very fortuitous and ultimately world-changing encounter with dirty dishes. he had been working with a fairly nasty strain of staff bacteria in his lab when he found quite by accident that one of the culture plates he had been working with i guess had been neglected or somehow cross-contaminated. in any case, it had started to grow a bit of mold. under normal circumstances, that might be cause for regret. oh, no, this is spoiled, or you might be mildly grossed out. that would be cause for throwing that out or cleaning up that culture plate. but what fleming noticed that day in 1928 and what ul
