i read a "boston globe" columnist yesterday saying she wasn't doing a good enough job of explaining how she would take on donald trump. james pinnedle from the "boston globe" writing about that, which is the thing democrats are most concerned about right now. but i think time's going to tell how she survives. obviously, the big thing she's continuing to deal with is this claim of native american heritage. >> right. >> the president tweeting at her yesterday and making reference to the trail of tears in a way that seems to make him the center of attention again in a bad way for, again -- >> right, the president in his tweet today, elizabeth warren sometimes refers to me as pocahontas and goes on and on. democrats need to put forth the strongest candidate possible. is this going to be elizabeth warren, if she's not able to put all of these controversies around her native american ancestry to bed? >> well, first of all, there's going to be no fewer than 15 democratic candidates. i mean, you could be looking at almost 20 kond dates on the democratic side who have some semblance of a semi-le

i think to sort of an outsider, they might hear, a reporter for "the boston globe" talking about temperature a hometown senator not to run for president, who is a democrat. people tend to think of the media as liberal. they may think of this as startling. was there pushback when this decision was made? >> all members of the boor, we continue outly debate all these decisions and weigh them very, very carefully, because we want to be deliberate, thoughtful. some members of the board are always -- we're always disagreeing with each other and always making the case for yes or no, and for what happened that week was basically a week of deliberations. we were thinking, look, she has all this baggage that she hasn't really addressed. it may end up hurting her more and the democratic party as well. the one issue we kept backing back to is the 2020 race, we need to have someone who can beat donald trump. but the issue of electability was going to be number one, and there was this poll cnn released this weeks precisely showing that. >> we're going to talk about this in the next segment. i think that i

longer talking about since the church for the last twenty years since two thousand and one when the boston globe but brought this. into full view despite all previous suspicions and previous reports the church has been talking about sinning sinning against other human beings and singing about god again scott now this pope and this church is actually talking about crimes and that means essentially bringing in justice systems. and the public speech wasn't particularly big on specific commitments so why do you think he singled out specific problems like another fee for example. well i'm not entirely sure that it was about specific commitments i think that there were several specific elements that were offered during sort of during this four days but very particularly this turning to justice is a very specific you know a very specific proposition i think that it was very telling that he talked about pornography once again he was not talking about pornography in the white or in the white or gun takes in society he was talking essentially about the use of child pornography weed in the church i mean i

since when the vatican but i think the public has been made very much aware at least since the boston globe spotlight especially since the movie came out it's been on the global scale and there have been different studies different reports coming out there has been a lot of effort being made and the us time cover abuse has been the germ started coming out not just in time to time but also now last year and it's made been very obvious that this is a global state problem during the last months during the last weeks especially so it's on the news now for quite a few years and i think the pressure is mounting why has it taken until twenty nine hundred for a summit like this to take place. i think that a number of reasons number one hundred on such a conference even if it's just a conference of enough it's. what can papers news progression that's one that's the easy one the other want to something that took a very long time for some officials to understand that abuse is the cause is a problem that needs coverage at the highest level it's a global problem that's a structural problem and not just

it was raised and "the boston globe" and others looked into it.sue, talking about her as pocahontas and all of that, he revived it and she took the bait and she decided to go with it. she took the dna test, which backfired on her. and now news organizations have started to look into her past documents that she signed, the one that garrett referred to was at application for the texas state bar where she in her own handwriting called herself native american. chances are we might see others of those. >> nobody could articulate what she stood to gain from this. there's allegations she gained by virtue of affirmative action. but in the cases people have seen, there's no likely -- >> as garrett reported, that's been the case. there's no evidence she was able to get ahead in academic jobs or politics because of this claiming this heritage. on the other hand, if people are looking for somebody who's going to beat donald trump, the last thing you want is to give them a big, fat target for donald trump to hit out of the park. which right now that feels like

-- >> i thought "the boston globe" was what she had done with regard to texas. >> no, this was texasfter she was hired at texas. i don't know why she did it. i think she's stretching the truth by any imagination. but it's not -- you can't prove that that particular signature got her a job anywhere. >> why the heck would she do it? it's almost weird if she didn't do it to get -- >> i understand she's in a lot of trouble over it and i understand why these issues of native ancestry and belonging are devastating to a community. why she says she did it, she always heard these stories, as her mom and her sisters were getting older, they were talking more about their native -- >> my family was gladiators. >> that's funny. that's funny, rob. she's talked about feeling more connected. i'm not saying it's the right thing to do, it's just not crazy and she wasn't a fraud. and we have no evidence to this point that she ever benefited from it herself. >> she gamed the system or at least the intention was to game the system. she knows what she was doing. >> it's a bar association thing. it's not g

this is the front page of the boston globe today. it says dynasty rolls on. let me just clarify there is this morning's paper, not the one from two years ago or two years before that or 2005 or 2004, you get my point where i'm going here. last night in atlanta, the oldest coach/quarterback duo in history, bill belichick and tom brady defeated the youngest, jared goff. the lowest scoring super bowl ever taking home mvp honors, julian edelman, he caught ten passes for 141 yards, which is nine more catches than had he in his entire college career. >> i can just go home now? >> yes. >> i don't think i'm need until at least half an hour into this show. i'm just going to let you take over. i feel bad saying this, berman, this was kind of the snooze bowl if the ranked very low on the excitement scale. there was that mercedes benz tweet and then deleted which we'll get to in a moment. but it was historic as berman just laid out for you. if you're one of the patriot haters, which i'm not, their skill is real, i just wish the vikings would do it a little bit more often

saviano's story, part of the "boston globe" spotlight series that went on to inspire an oscar-winning movie. he's one of a dozen survivors invited to share their views with vatican organizers. you feel finally heard? >> i do feel heard, yeah. promises are made, but you really have to wait and see what actually happens. >> reporter: he told me this is not the first time he's come here to discuss this issue, but it is the first time he felt someone in the vatican was listening. david? >> david, thank you. >>> and there is still much more ahead on "world news tonight" this thursday. we remember a famous musician here tonight. >>> also, the mayor under arrest tonight, accused of practicing medicine from his own home and then allegedly opening fire when s.w.a.t. teams arrived. >>> the famous college basketball coach who struck and killed a man on the highway. his new statement tonight. and what authorities have revealed this evening about how this happened. >>> and nike feeling the heat ha topnba prospect and that scare seen by so many overnight. than anyone else in the world. on average,

was the one moving out of step it's a big if the course of this in january twenty seventh in the boston globe wrote that the consequences of won't his presidency have been start as they put it the middle east the washing the blood and bombs u.s. troops we have brought in iraq and afghanistan aggressive dictators ascendant human rights and democracy in retreat a lot of bad stuff you don't see it that way do you know look the middle east was awash in conflict when we came into office and the idea that somehow barack obama initiated this transfer is not that is it just didn't stop it well yes it didn't stop it and i think there and frankly though in terms of u.s. troops there are one hundred eighty thousand u.s. troops in iraq and afghanistan when we took office there are fifteen thousand and when we left so we did begin and make significant progress in the work of extricating united states from those wars but pretty kind to yourselves and you when it comes to legacy a bomber put it on leaving office almost every country on earth sees america as stronger and more respect today than they did eigh

but then i thought the boston globe made this lie possible. what have they said?y've covered her for years and defended her. how have they responded to evidence that they were lying all this time? >> they ran a story in september trying to cover for her and basically rounded up all the usual democrat suspects in all these law schools saying it had nothing to do with her being a native american. it had to do with her great credentials. there's nobody at harvard law school or yale law school. that's just not where you get these people from. coming out here, i think due to opposition research, tucker, is we're starting to find out the outlines of this grip. like a small-time criminal starts with shoplifting. she starts with the cookbook, the plagiarized recipes. now she's files the application with the texas bar. nobody calls her out on it. so she just keeps upping the ante, a year later she puts in that she's an indian in the law school directory. and she's suddenly at the university of pennsylvania and harvard making major wampum for many moons. she's done now. she

. >> you have been described as the boston globe as a scrappy overachiever. rep. trahan: y? -- rep. trahan: they probably harken back to my grow up. i grew up in a working-class neighborhood. my dad was a union worker. my mom spent her childhood in foster care and an orphanage. they had modest upbringings. i went to public schools my whole life. i got a scholarship to georgetown and played volleyball there. that put me on the path i am on today, which is why talk about education all the time. i worked hard. this was a tough primary race with 10 people on the ballot. i don't mind it scrappy. >> you worked two jobs as a teenager i understand. why? gov. newsome: we were taught -- rep. trahan: we were taught to work. i played for a volleyball team that helped me travel around the country. wanted to do that, i had to contribute to it. i started out delivering newspapers. it wasn't uncommon. everyone in my neighborhood growing up had some job that they were doing, whether it was babysitting or helping with shoveling or whatever. i worked at a local diner while i was in high school. that w

thank you so much there from lawrence, massachusetts, joining me now to talk further about this, boston globe reporter, liz goodwin. cnn political commentator hilary rosen and republican strategist and cnn political commentator kevin madden. good to see you all. liz, let me begin with you. well, you know, elizabeth warren didn't necessarily mention the name trump, she did talk about this president. this administration. she said, i'm quoting now, he's not the cause of what's broken, he's just the latest symptom. quoting her now kicking dirt and everyone else. that seemed to be her primary mantra as she laid out, you know, three different directions she would be taking as a candidate but particularly of corruption, you know, trying to hold the powerful accountable. >> it's usually her biggest applause line when she says let's just have a lifetime ban on lawmakers lobbying, clean up washington, all that stuff is resonating i think. in some ways more than the wall street part of her platform. if sanders decides to get into this race as well, they're kind of in the same progressive lane. the billi

>> well, first, you haven't read "the boston globe" recently. that's true. >> running editorials telling her not to run for president this time. for her to solve her native-american issues. we were very much for her, editorial page was, not me, to run last time. that is part of what is going on here. many people believed she may have missed her moment? can she be the nominee? she is absolutely in the mix in the toppish tier, but it is very undefined as to, who democrats are looking for right now. stuart: will she exert much influence over the run for the democrats, run for the presidency? >> well, sure. i mean, she did last month when she started setting the terms of the debate among democrats. when she came out with her wealth tax, for example. it was a topic that lasted week 1/2. reminded howard schultz, he responded to it, and michael bloomberg needed to respond to it. we discussed that briefly but at the same time i do think probably the most important voice in the democratic primary will be someone like barack obama and someone like alexand

i remember being in boston -- i lived in boston, i was a reporter in boston in 2002 when the "boston globespotlight team revealed the bombshell report of just how widespread this was in the boston area. how can we still be here 17 years later? how can we still be having these revelations and this conversation 17 years later? >> alisyn, because we have useless bishops around the world and this is the situation, alisyn, and i think everybody who is listening will understand. i hear bishops, i heard a chilean bishop, i've heard a spanish bishop, i've heard bishops from other places in the world saying, well, in 2011 we didn't have protocols or we didn't have elements to deal with situations like this with abuse. alisyn. i think you'll agree with me, raping a child, abusing a boy, abusing a girl, vulnerable people, raping women has been wrong before christ, after christ, in the middle ages, now, and it will always be bad. so this lie of i didn't have the protocols, it's simply because they want to protect the institution and avoids scandal and that cannot be. it can not be anymore and with the

we are bringing in a political reporter for the boston globe.he governor can maintain credibility and trust that comes with his office? even despite the convoluted explanations of his during the news conference? or do you think it is just a matter of time? >> for him to maintain good ability he would have to have the credibility. right now he does not. at the end of this, we've not go through different iterations as the reporter mentioned at the top here. last night, he was in the photo. then he was not in the photo. then he has no recollection that he was in the photo. at this point, it doesn't even matter if he is in the photo. they can loss investigation. he really has no ability and he said the end that if he has to, if he figures he's not going to be effective for the citizens of the commonwealth of virginia then he will reassess. he needs to reassess his own democratic leaders in his own state in his own legislature. obviously, he needs to -- he seems to be the only one, to be in the country that does not quite get it. eric: so what do the

boston globe investigation supports that claim and the president of navajo nation has accepted her apology. >> we look forward to working with her in the future on native american issues. >> reporter: one of warren's opponents, kamala harris, said there are bigger issues facing the nation. democratic representative gabbard was widely criticized for saying this on ms nbc. >> aside is not the enemy of the united states because syria does not pose a direct threat to the united states. >> a thought has been accused of using chemical weapons against his own people. tulsi gabbard noted that al qaeda attacked the us on 9/11. in 2017 she drew bipartisan criticism for meeting with bashar al-assad during a fact-finding mission. former grand kkk wizard david duke rejected her, she rejected the endorsement. senator club which are --kobu a --kobuchar had 3 abandon her campaign saying she mistreats people. her campaign spokesman says she loves her staff at are the reason she has gotten where she is. stormy daniels attorney and admitted trump 8 or michael avenatti went on twitter and praised the state of

they're not just getting news from "the boston globe" and tv stations, i think they're getting the newscnn and msnbc, so it's not that same thing. i's wide open field there. >> new hampshire is going to matter until candidates decide it's not going matter anymore. as long as you have 11 people trying to muscle each other out this that state and spending money and hiring staff, it's going to meade -- meet. >> what's your sense now? what's your trigger for a candidate that new hampshire has to be off the table for us, we've got to find something else? >> right. again, i think it's too early. i would be surprised if that happens this far out, but i think, you know, dynamics could totally change with someone like bernie sanders or joe biden jump in or sharon brown and he's able to peel awhey what klobuchar peels in her path. we may see some compete in the middle lane and sanders and warren compete for the left lane. if polling for the first caucus and primary start showing one is pulling ahead, others are going to bolt and run for the next state to try and make sure they get an early win. >

but then i thought, "the boston globe" made his life possible. what have they said?overed for her for years, defended her. how are they responding to evidence that they were lying all this time? >> they ran a story in september trying to cover for her, and they basically rounded up all the usual democrat suspects, all these law schools, saying, no, it had nothing to do with her being a native american. it had to do with her great credentials. there is nobody at harvard law school or yale law school or university of pennsylvania that come from the university of houston and rutgers law school -- no knock on the schools but that is not where you get these people from. what's coming out here, due to opposition research, tucker, starting to find out the outlines of this rift. it starts like a small-time criminal, shoplifting, she starts out with that cookbook by the plagiarize recipes. nobody calls her out on that. now she files this application with the texas bar. nobody calls her out on it. so she just keeps upping the ante, and a year later, she puts in that she's an i

. >> the boston globe thinks she missed her opportunity. let's move bigger picture.erson who seems to be resonating who's not in the race yet is joe biden. he's leading the pack in the most recent polling. we put it up there with 50% of americans saying, they would support him for president. he's beating trump. there's obviously a lot of energy on the left. and more candidates were seen trying to highlight their progressive credentials. moderate joe biden, someone who has a history of bipartisanship from his work in the senate is not that person on the left. so what does that sort of polling tell us about what americans -- democrats in particular really want? >> it says that if you know somebody, and you like somebody, you don't care that much about their policy agenda. some of these other people that are brand new, they have to jump up and down and say medicare for all 27 times in their speech. they're trying to say, look, look, i'm in with the party. when you're joe biden, you say hi, i'm joe. you had me at, i'm joe. he's a beloved figure in our party. he was obama

. >> reporter: but an exhaustive boston globe investigation last year concluded that warren's ethnicity was not a factor in her hiring at multiple law schools, including harvard. >> nothing about my background ever had anything to do with any job i got in any places. >> reporter: warren attempted to settle the controversy in october. releasing the results of a dna test in a lengthy video. >> the president likes to call my mom a liar. what do the facts say? >> the facts suggest that you absolutely have a native american ancestry in your pedigree. >> that prompted backlash with cherokee's leaders. she spoke with chief bill john baker last week. >> i am sorry that i extended confusion about trial citizenship and trial sovereignty. and for harm caused. >> reporter: since announcing her exploratory campaign on new year's eve, warren has answered dozens of questions from voters. two about this controversy. >> why did you allow donald to engage you on the native american question and get a chuckle every time he says pocahontas? >> reporter: voters in the early states so far showing mixed react

we have to begin with the super bowl as the "boston globe" put it this morning, the dynasty rolls on. the new england patriots did it again, beating the los angeles rams 13-3, winning their sixth super bowl title in 17 years. the patriots are now tied with the pittsburgh steelers for the most super bowl titles in nfl history. we'll have all the game highlights later on in this show. >>> we're getting new insight into president trump's day-to-day routine. the president has spent around 60% of his scheduled time over the past three months in what is called unstructured executive time. axios reported obtaining 51 pages that include private schedules from a white house source. the leak provides unprecedented visibility into how trump spends his days. he use much of his executive time watching tv, reading newspapers and phoning aides about what he sees and reads. some days executive time predominates his schedule. back on january 18th, trump had two 30 minute meetings on the schedule and seven hours of executive time. on november 7th the day after the mid-terms the president's private sche

she said nothing about it and by the time she cooperated with the boston globe many impressions had already but here's my take on this. i find it of interest that she regarded herself as native american when registering for the texas bar, but to me the fundamental issue is did she ever use that characterization for professional gain? and the answer seemingly is no, she didn't. when she applied to my alma mater, the university of pennsylvania for law school and when she applied to harvard she did not, if you'll pardon this, play that card. i was raised in oklahoma, raised to believe that i was native american. i am very proud of that heritage, but i have never used it for professional advancement. if she'd said that and been more forthcoming from the get go she'd be in a better position. >> all right. michael, thank you so much. always a great conversation with you. >> thank you, brianna. >> we can catch you saturday mornings. check out "smerconish" 9:00 eastern right here on cnn. coming up, the president uses the top of his state of the union speech to slam, quote, ridiculous partisan inves

the boston globe really led the way on reporting out whether or not her claims of heritage here did her any favors in their case explicitly at harvard, but that will be the question, i think, to see how much more legs this really gets in a democratic primary. are there instances where claiming native american heritage really did help elizabeth warren in her career, or is this just, as she said, a case of the family lore not keeping up with objective reality. >> and, kim, for the party, it becomes interesting. yes, we get that the democrats have a -- they've got the big apple circus of tents this time around, but do they really have any room for error among what are supposed to be their top tier candidates? >> well, i think that's a big point right there. you have a lot of people competing. even the smallest of gaffes, particularly early on, can really knock someone off. now, senator warren has gotten far out ahead am of a lot of her potential challengers by declaring early, by getting a lot of fund raidsing, getting a lot of organization, and so she still is probably considered a frontr

it should have ended in my opinion with an expose by "the boston globe" that definitively seemed to answer the question of whether she played that card in order to get hired at my alma matter of pennsylvania law school and harvard law school and it was a really great piece of work. she cooperated with it. the faculty members cooperated in interviews, all of those documents pertaining to her hiring were revealed and published and what they suggested, what they evidenced was that, although she's held herself out as a american faculty member, she did not do so in order to get hired. now, it required a 20 minute readin to get to that conclusion and in the sound byte world in which we live, it's very hard to convey that. it's much easier for a nickname, a moniker to stick to her. i'm an alumnist of that law school. i was very curious to know when she got hired, was she hired because they wanted a native american faculty member and the answer, according to the globe was, no. she's had a really hard time in communicating that. >> michael smerconish, we can't wait to watch you tomorrow morning as

nbc senior political editor mark murray and "boston globe" editor jason pindell. we know how interesting and different bernie's race was in 2016 and what a challenge and the bitterness that remains with some parts of the democratic party, and what he accomplished, which is amazing. but you also talked about kamala harris up there today. so tell us about her reactions as well. >> you're absolutely right, andrea. and frankly, bernie didn't seem to want to say this himself, but the reality is that the conversation that's going on in the democratic primary right now was the conversation that was started by bernie sanders in 2016. so those issues have very much been pushed to the forefront because of bernie sanders. but as you point out, those divisions were -- and as i have been reminded on twitter and elsewhere today, those divisions that were created during that primary were deep. they were ugly. they were very painful. and some of them haven't healed quite yet. i do think that the money that's poured in for bernie is a sign that many of those voters are still with

you know, "the boston globe," apparently, has investigated it significantly and has come to the conclusionused for some kind of professional gain, but it still does damage her credibility and in such a crowded field, mostly all sort of in one place on the progressive lane of the democratic party in this primary, you know, to me i think that the democratic party would be better served with less people in this primary. and, frankly, more of these united states senators staying where they are because they're in a very important fight and dialogue to have in the united states senate. and with all of these folks saying that, you know, they're concerned about president trump, doing your job in the united states senate and having that checks and balance is critically important and may be more important than a vanity project running for the president of the united states. arthel: well d -- [inaudible conversations] who didn't get your message, senator cory booker, he's out today in des moines, iowa. he has thrown his hat in that crowded ring for democratic hopefuls in 2020. senator cory booker is
