this incident was one tiny machination in the vast master plan meticulously orchestrated by the clinton core, or some crazy lady threw a shoe at her. ask yourself this. which one of those two possibilities lets me talk about it for six minutes? (laughter) now continue to think about it, hillary is so devious it is possible even losing the 2000 primary was part of her scheme. that way she doesn't become president in 2008, she can't get re-elected in 2012, steering a path for a shoe to be thrown at her the very same week we learn chelsea is pregnant. (cheers and applause) i mean it's like we're playing checkers and she's not so we're playing her side too and she's still beating us. (laughter) well, that's it for this edition of stephen colbert's [bleep] they arists unless are you listening to this from your fillings, in which case, i'll be with all night long. we'll be right back this is smith & forge hard cider. it's like jasper here. strong. sturdy. but not too sweet.

who hope she will be president, people who hope she will not, is there a sense at the core always about hillary clintonwhat is it? talk to people, they respect her, even republicans. we spoke to daryl ice, jason darrell issa.- he has great respect for her and think she's very capable. we told the story of the way he saw ben ghazi when he kind of blamed obama -- blamed obama and then after the 2012 election, he kind of pivoted to her a bit and blaming her a little bit more. the down, republicans have a great deal of respect for her. one called the stages of hillary. he dreaded working with her at first and then he kind of reached the acceptance phase where he was ok working for her and then he actually started liking her. we found that really interesting . >> you hear that from people like bob gates, john mccain. so many republicans at that level have had working relationships. date the trails, cia director -- etraeus.p >> where do you start the book? >> making a knotty and nice list in 2008. >> what was it about? -- making a naughty and nice list. felt had betrayed her. tracking all of these delegates

when you talked to people about her, is there a sense that, at the core, always, about hillary clinton, which might be competence? what is it? >> it's interesting. i think, when you talk to people, they respect her, even republicans. we talked to a few like dar rl reedaryl isa, who has great respect for her and thinks she's very capable. we tell the story of the way he saw benghazi when he blamed obama at first for benghazi and then after the 2012 election he pivoted to hillary and started blaming her more. but i think deep down republicans have a great deal of respect for her. one called it "stages of hillary," where he says he dreaded working with her at first and then reached the acceptance phase where he was okay working for her and then he actually started liking her. we found that really interesting. >> charlie: you hear that from bob gates, john mccain. not in every instance, but some republicans at that level have had working relationships -- dave petraeus as c.i.a. director and general. >> petraeus told us he thought she would make a tremendous president. >> charlie: you pick

remember, hilary clinton was a go-water girl in 1964. by the late '60s, she is a hard core leftist. she got involved in a single issue group, anti-vietnam war. and if people are not interested in joining your conservative organization, think about the top issues in your community you can get people involved and there are many opportunities to get people involved in something dealing with public policy other than just next election. i am very optimistic and i will talk about that. but we should not be under any illusion as to the challenge we have in front of us. the leadership of everything institution in america, save the military, is a raid against us. the views and values of big business, wall street, the unions, hollywood, media, non-profit organizations. it goes on and on. all of these institution the leaderhip is against us. if you have not read another book, after you buy and read by read "the ruling class" by angelo. we were with him this weekend for a conservative meeting. he has analyzed how the leaders of the democratic and republican party rigged the rules to advantage t

clinton does. >> i wonder if jeb bush is an acceptable candidate given his position on common core and immigrationve bobby jindal in which he likens support of common core of rugs during communism and these are positions that i think are tough for jeb bush. you have to separate these two parties. >> jeb bush and other challenges, he's still potentially needing to distance himself from his brother. >> broadly speaking throughout the country and there's bush fatigue, and the right side of the party and they're looking at jeb's maneuvers with a bit of a raise ide brow saying we think we'll continue to operate and we have a shot at the nomination regardless of what jeb does. >> all right. robert, susan and caitlin, thank you very much for being here for our thursday gaggle. i appreciate it. great conversation. we're expecting a news conference any minute now in lemoyne, pennsylvania, which is the headquarters for the hospital in kabul where three americans were killed and another wounded. craig melvin is in for chris jansing and will bring you all of that live. >> good morning. i'm craig melvin in for

bush or clinton, three times as much as ronald reagan, as well. this guy is political to his core. he's demonstrated that. a day like this where it should be sacred and stand alone as its owner vent, they can't get out of their own way to more fundraising, more campaigning. i think he does turn the switch on and off. i think this president has a way of doing it. problem is optics again reinforce the wrong message. >> last word, joe. >> i could give you a long list of republicans tonight having fundraisers here in washington d.c. -- >> but not the president of the united states. >> they just happen to be members of congress who ahappen to represent all of us. >> good to see you both. >> thank you. >> thank you. >>> forbes named her the sixth most powerful woman in the world. up next, the coo of ♪ [ banker ] sydney needed some financial guidance so she could take her dream to the next level. so we talked about her options. her valuable assets were staying. and selling her car wouldn't fly. we helped sydney manage her debt and prioritize her goals, so she could really turn up the volu

injured of the anti government activists who did try to stall a military base of were denied a core that by the clinton army this is very concerning with this death toll now at three the injuries at thirty than amount of power which is just over one hundred kilometers of the net cost of the russian border and this is really the time that incident has flared up that it gives you no idea of the escalation of the situation now in the eastern ukraine there's been lots of activity where your situation where we've heard about soldiers actually switching sides and joining the protest is how did that play out exactly exactly if i don't think i appear i don't i think it was a pretty job but all those scenes of soldiers switching sides and the locals reacting to soldiers from the ukrainian army you are the army you're supposed to protect us the way you might consider that we're not going to shoot we weren't even planning on it they woke us up in the middle of the night and told us to head out. with the with. the so we have seen scenes that in qana tell us this week i was yesterday i was very close to study and t

january 2016, most likely scenario, hillary clinton is the presumptive democrat nominee, that's -- they're not going to not nominate somebody because of common core. trust me. if it loses 2016 presidential election, the republican party knew it will be extinct. this will be the sixth out of seventh election they lost. in popular vote. republicans want to win this. that's the biggest issue in january 2016. i can beat hillary clinton. have to win this election. >> ana navarro, you know very well the former governor of florida, jeb bush, he'll have some trouble with republican base, we saw those comments about immigration. donald trump took those comments on at the freedom summit yesterday. >> that's one i never heard that before. i have heard money, i heard this, i heard sex, everything. i never heard love. i understand what he's saying, but you know, it's out there. i'll tell you. >> the crowd is on trump's side. >> oh, george, please don't make me pretend on national television donald trump is politically relevant. and what he thinks and says matters. people understand he's an entertainer. on jeb bush, look, what you saw from him when he gave tha

core. the wise men of the early era found themselves on = crisis and the great political military leaders in the past like john clintonen and genital winfield scott in the previous century and into a forced retirement while the more modern minds like abraham lincoln and ulysses grant rose to the challenge. the civil war destroyed old assumptions and reworded radical new thinking and triggered the upheaval comparable to the one a century later by the vietnam war and the national trauma that made an older generation suddenly obsolete and demanded a novelty, innovation, experimentation. the 1860s was bloody, bewildering and if you managed to survive a magnificent time to be a young american. america belongs to the young in thandthe future was in the yount place of america the far west. the pioneers were overwhelmingly young and untethered from traditional society they built the world without the benefit of their parents council. if the encampments were had postadolescent access the opera opportunities unlike any that might be found in the colleges and counting houses of the east. please children at higher layers, the van

core. that's the one thing that could be his achilles if he's going to get through a republican primary and go on and take on hillary clinton or whoever. >> the more conservative party, greg, would have some problems with this. they would like stricter immigration laws. how do you think this is going to play for him? >> one initial reaction i'm bushed from all the bushes. can't we have another names? can we work down the alphabet? why don't we get an actual bush? at least he wouldn't raise taxes. i know he's qualified, and i understand what he means by the act of love. that makes sense, but you know what else is an act of love for your country is a respect for an actual border. that's love for your country. you know, i want these people here that take risks. you know, what made america great is people took risks. they came from their country to get here and risk their lives and those people are great people and i like them. we should form a line. our borders are like that bookstore, they don't exist anymore. >> bob, what do you think? >> i think that quote would be the single most advantagious quote he could take into a gen

he'll also visit south core radio a, macore re, a malaysia and the philippines. this is the first visit since 1996 and the clintons and at a time when china has stepped up territorial claims in both the south and east china seas ahead of the president's trip. state media accused the u.s. of want to ing to cage china. the president weighed in on the fierce fight over a group of islands saying, quote, policy of the united states is clear, the senkaku islands are administered by japan. it's pretty clear how china will respond at least rhetorically earlier this month, china's defense minister told chuck hagel, quote, we will make no compromise, no concession, the chinese military can assemble as soon as summoned, fight any battle and win. in another effort to counter balance china, the president is expected to announce an agreement with the philippines that would give american ships and planes the most extensive access to the bases there in the last two decades. the philippines voted to evict the u.s. military from its bases in 1991 after a century long military presence and activists are already protesting the new se

core, which as we know is the defining issue of our time. and he's a bush. because dynasties only work if your name is clinton, kennedy, or paul.what's it going to be, gop? an old school conservative with a toxic surname or an untested libertarian who if he delivered his home state would bring exactly eight electoral votes and the tea party clown car? the return of the neocons or a complete surrender to the libertarian right? clearly this is a party in need of more options. and that's "hardball" for now. thanks for being with us. "all in with chris hayes" starts right now. >>> good evening from new york. i'm chris hayes. the standoff in nevada might be over, but armed militia members remain on site. and today senate majority leader harry reid called those supporters of rancher and conservative hero cliven bundy domestic terrorists. an event sponsored by the las vegas review journal, reid had this to say about the armed supporters who rallied in support of bundy's right to not pay federal grazing fees for his cattle. "they're nothing more than domestic terrorists. i repeat, what happened there was domestic terrorism." those comm

problem -- look, jeb bush and hilary clinton, if they end up being ting nomineesy agree with each other on a lot of issues. >> i hope not. >> they agree on common coretrade with china. so they agree on a lot of big on left andi think a lot of the right don't agree with at all. >> in order -- >> between jeb and hilary -- >> in order for the republican to beat hillary clinton, all right, you have to go after him. whoever it is is going to have to go after her, not personal, but just carve her positions -- >> you see jeb bush doing that? >> i'm not sure. i'm not sure. i got to see some fire. >> more than they go after the clintons. >> that's a terrible strategy. they have to basically say to the tea party, look, i reflect your values. this is the republican nominee, all right? they have to do that. in the other realm, they also have to be fair. so we'll continue. thank you. back with the tip of the day discussing jesus with matt lauer. the tip moments away. introducing the more everything plan. our best ever plan for families. four lines for only $160 a month. including 10 gigabytes of shareable data. 25 gigabytes of cloud storage to connect all the co

in other words, whether the hillary clinton wing or elizabeth warren wing will reign. a lot of the money she raised, the coreimed at big donors. railing against the political power of those with the biggest checkbo checkbooks. >> what we have to remember is that they have concentrated money, concentrated power on their side and it shows up. it gives them great advantage. but what we have on our side, we are our voices and we have our votes. and as long as we stay active, as long as we stay engaged, we can win. >> joining the conversation, another well-known figure, governor michael dukakis. and john stanton is back as well. susan, i will start with you. just this last week you had a chance to spend time with elizabeth warren. i'm curious what your take away is about what she's trying to do with the book, what she's trying to do in politics and your impressions generally from spending that kind of time with her. >> the power in her appeal is she believes what she's saying. when you ask her a question, she's inclined to give you an answer. so when i was interviewing her, i said should some bankers gone to jail

clinton appointed 373, george bush appointed 325. i wonder if you think in the last two year of the obama presidency we'll see a nrenew interest in filling vacant seats, not corely make appointments a priority. >> i think it only happens if there's push from outside. as we look at decisions like citizens unated or corporate speech or general mills trying to say if you like them on facebook, you can never go to court if you have an issue with a food product makes you sick or has your child die that's a legal issue but you have to have a super structure to make sure we're pursuing that's a legal issue. i think if there's pressure on the president to do that, it can happen. argument in the old days there was so much obstruction they didn't make it a priority. but they've lagged behind. the supreme court famously has two liberals, moderates and a conservative block. there aren't four liberals on the supreme court. there's a lot more that we can do here. ari melber "the cycle" and lawrence. >> 10:00 p.m. >> thank you. after the break, today marks one year since a deadly fertilizer plant explosion killed 15 people, injured more than 200 and destroyed more than 100 h

core education curriculum. they have different challenges on the basis of their party. one other thing that is so interesting, wolf, is that the families over the years have grown really close. bill clinton to bush 41, and how would those relationships be affected if hillary clinton ran against jeb bush? >> but if the republicans want to win the white house, they have got to carry states like florida, jeb bush is pretty popular there. s >> his big problem would be winning the republican nomination. >> yes. >> good work, excellent work gloria. >>> one million pilgrims and tourists are expected in rome for something that is evoking joy and controversy. two of the most popular popes in history will be canonized. he orchestrated huge changes that have impacted the catholic church to this day. and pope john paul ii who served from 1978 to 2005, his trips around the world made him visible but his legacy is scarred on his inaction on clerical sexual abuse crises. >>> she is known for her beauty and body sense of humor. we shine the spotlight on cameron diaz. and anthony bourdain eats his way through france. it is all part of a new parts unknown. after bourdain, morgan spurlock goes to the dogs.

clinton foundation is fund raising. >> yes. >> how is she at that? >> i don't think that's her core job.nts and her dad does do quite well and primarily strongly. you know, i think the conversations we had and one of the things that was most interesting was talking to her about what her political aspirations might be which is something that she has been very coy about. mostly said she's not particularly interested in that. the answer she gave us was fairly nuance. what she said was she is comfortable with her elected representatives right now. and as long as she's comfortable with her elected representatives, there's no need for her to go and do something else. if that were to change, she might look at things differently. but she was not pushing that as an agenda. >> so you're one of the people that i know that you had spent some time with chelsea. you say he's a wonderful person. >> i think the characterizations this morning are all accurate. i think she's -- even the more we get to know her the more we're going to like her. the question i have is what people would have about her mother

core curriculum and education. so he might have a more difficult time selling himself to his own party. but then again, hillary clinton favorite of the liberal base -- of the democratic. >> given how close these two families have become over the years. >> yeah. >> let's say jeb bush is the republican nominee. hillary clinton is the democratic nominee. how does that family connection play out? >> i think that the fondness is real. i think bill clinton is really close to george h.w. bush. but as neil bush points out, these families understand better than anybody that there is friendship and there is politics. and that this would be a serious race run on the issues. i don't think either of these candidates would be talking about the issue of questions like birth certificates like we heard in the last campaigns. i think this would be a serious race with serious people who disagree on the issues. >> excellent work, gloria. thank you very much for doing that work. gloria borger reporting for us. >>> just ahead, a very different story. horror outside an afghanistan hospital. americans are gunned down. we're learning new deta
