angie's boyfriend, ben, was not present. >> ben was aware of the fact that angie, russell, and i were all going out together. >> at least angie's friend, evelyn, ben didn't seem like the type to get jealous or violent. you could never imagine ben hurting angie? >> i could never imagine that. >> the evening ended at 1:00 a. m. angie dropped russell off from his apartment, which was walking distance from her own. and then took anita home. she thought about spending the night at angie's but decided against it. what was the last thing you said to each other? >> see you tomorrow at the football game. she doesn't meet me there, very strange. because she was a woman of her word. i remember saying, i wonder why angie is. i came home, and my roommate said, there's something i need to tell you. she said, umm, you might want to sit down. she goes, angie was murdered last night and the police want you to call them back. >> what did you think? >> i didn't want to believe it at first. beyond that, i started with the whole would have, could have, should have. could i have prevented it, should i have

what do you think this about, ben?nt and i also own a gun store and a gun range. i witness this in real life the other day, had an employee that said, so-and-so in the restaurant is making this and i deserve to make that. okay, make your case. well, they are making this, i make this. let's go through what you do compared to what they do. do you have 27 years of experience in barbecue? no. do you start a pit at 4 in the morning? no. do you work nights? no. do you work weekends? no. how old are you? i'm 22. compare yourself to a 58-year-old barbecue expert, who only way you are in the skill, tending a pit day and night and you want the same salary, i am sorry, this will end in disaster and employers better fight back hard. >> harris: what are you paying a woman who would leave her news anchor job to be a professional barbecue taster? >> ben: come on down. >> harris: kidding, i love it. okay, morgan. >> morgan: listen, if you take aside the policy stuff and serious questions here, part of me wants to be for this, i'm incr

ben i apologize to you on this one. the very local issue here in annapolis, a question has come up, what do you think of distributing crack pipes? >> it's all harm reduction and it's not unrelated things to clean syringes which we learn in the 80s were life-saving and cut down on the spread of infectious disease. and so the same is true with crack pipes. the harm reduction kits given out in places in baltimore and in other cities, it's not as widespread as its should be, it cuts down on the spread of disease, and it also, as ben was mentioning with regard to the phenomenon of safe consumption sites, once people know you're there to help them, not there to arrest them or to accuse them of wrong doing, you're there to keep them safe, because before fentanyl we had a quarter of the deaths we have now. our death toll has quadrupled in the last decade and i said those people go on to recover well now they're dying before the get the chance to recover so anything we can do to keep them safe while they're in the to statement.

fair enough, ben, _ changing everything. fair enough, ben, but- changing everything.n, but do you see countries in the region beefing up countries in the region beefing up their defence capabilities now as a result of this? in particular, i'm thinking china, that already has extremely strong defence capabilities, but also other countries in this part of the world. china's already been _ this part of the world. china's already been expanding - this part of the world. china's already been expanding its i this part of the world. china's i already been expanding its navy at an incredibly rapid pace. more ships, more submarines, more advanced technology, more drones, more autonomous military equipment, but we've also seen something similar on also seen something similar on a smaller scale from southeast asian nations. vietnam has bought submarines from russia, indonesia is looking to modernise its navy. but i think you can't really compare the scale of that with what china is doing, giving its size and its might. but there's kind of a response when you look at military bui

ruben, you dedicate this book to ben affleck. why is that? >> i dedicated it to ben affleck, who i've never met because he was accidentally integral to my awakening. i was the sort of far left progressive on the young turks network which is a progressive channel. i was burning a supporter of the whole thing and there was a night at about six years ago or so where it's a very memorable night across the world millions of times actually where ben affleck was on real time with bill marr and he was alongside sam harris, of course the neuroscientist who mostly talks about mindful medication and sam was releasing a new book called waking up, he guided to spirituality without religion. bill and sam were talking well-known atheists and started talking about religion and then the topic of radical islam came up. sam made the point we all know which is that you ought to be able to separate ideas and criticize any idea whether it's the republican party platform or the doctrine of christianity or in this case they were talking about islam, but you wanted t

ben, you talk about the priors of yield. you talk about the other moments we see yield surge, and you say this time it is different. ben: i think the speed is been different. i think reacting to the bond yield move is not necessarily a rebel. it is the biggest move that we have ever had. more than we had in both quarters. it is a record. we have seen this move before. there was a hundred basis point move yield. there was a lot of #metoo movement -- movement. the market came up 6%, and it was not do similar to what we saw in 2013 which is the best year of the decade for equity. the markets is sending us messages. i think this sort of pain is temporary as the market rebounds a little bit. there is variance in what is being destroyed. tom: do we have enough of a draw down or pull back where the cash game is change for corporations? ben: the story for this year has been the lack of volatility. we've had a huge rally and a pullback this year. it is very low. you can make a case for why we might get more volatility, especially wit

ben: the last part is a bit harder.d trump has packed the supreme court but the supreme court has been packed before. one of those principles is the eighth amendment to the constitution which prevents cruel and unusual punishment. the standard it is based on, british, law is cruel or unusual. in america, it is and, so it must be both. the supreme court has long held that the death penalty is cruel by its nature. executing a human being is cruel. unusual as a standard is something a majority of states opposed which means you have to get t26 states. this is the standard we used to abolish the juvenile death penalty. our nation was only one of 10 on earth that was still sentencing children to death. we were able to abolish it because we got more than 26 states to abolish the juvenile death penalty and then the supreme court said yes, we've long held that that -- that the death penalty was cruel for juveniles and we will abolish it. they did the same thing for people with low iqs, people he -- people the court refers to as

yes, indeed, ben. the expert advisory - process, hasn't it? yes, indeed, - ben.ry committee, thejcvi, said ten days ago that they did not think, having looked at this very carefully, that they could unequivocally say that this was a good thing to do, because the benefits, they said, two children of 12 to 15 years old would only marginally outweigh the risks, because children were at low risk anyway of getting covid and suffering ill—health. and secondly, there were some very rare side effects that have been spotted amongst those who had had vaccines, young people, a certain amount of heart information, though that is extremely rare. so, the chief medical officerss then took on the decision of saying, well, are their wider benefits beyond the immediate risk to the child? that, for example, might include disruption to education and actually stopping the spread of the virus in communities, through young people picking it up more readily than others. so, they are going to come up with an announcement later on today, and it is widely expected that they will give the g
