len do you s you -- manager corey len do you ski.hat is new now, and they are setting up to show this video and will explain their decision, as we await that, what we learned is that the prosecutor basically said that while core did touch her that that in self does not rise to the level of the kind of evidence they would need it say that it was a battle they could win in court. and being able to likely win. so it doesn't mean there is no way he could possibly win, it means it didn't meet the pros he can tour yoel standard, which is higher. other thing i heard which is somewhat new here is the prosecutor took the potential defenses of corey len do you ski seriously that his role as campaign manager within the so-called protective bubble couldly mat jily include providing safety or secure it to donald trump. that's vital. that's security guard or law enforcement def rans it a political aid and indeed that, i think we are going to the video -- >> they are trying to start it up. i don't know it's working yet. i want to bring in katie tur

prosecutor is going to be speaking in a news conference where he will announce all charges against corey lewandowski the trump campaign manager charged with battery of a reporter will be i'm trish re. welcome to "the intelligence report." any moment we are expected to hear from prosecutors that donald trump's campaign manager will not be prosecuted for man handling a female reporter. there is the scene live from palm beach, florida. corey lewandowski was charged with simple battery where former breitbart news reporter michelle fields was supposedly man handles as he tried to get an interview with donald trump. there she is trying to approach trump to ask a question, she says she was pulled back really hard by lewandowski. here is the prosecutor, rather they're make a statement right now. let's listen in. not quite yet. you know that she did file charges and the police followed suit. basically arresting him for this, but has now issued a total reversal. let's listen in right now. >> includes all of palm beach county. i'm joined by adrianne ellis covering all the misdemeanors including sim

when corey got in trouble i was called by corey to come and get involved in the case. myself and scott richardson met with the state attorneys over this case. we gave them information i think they need they put in their memo why they didn't go forward. barton brown, amazing fbi agent for 25 years and eric holder's supervisory special agent in charge of his security, listen, something that happened here is always happens. this is standard operating procedure. not something someone would be charged with a battery. they really considered that. i give kudos to for it. melissa: i read the "new york post" this morning, that is what i do when i get up, feeding my kids breakfast, i saw qwami jackson from "the apprentice" part after press conference on friday denouncing trump. another "apprentice" person. >> i don't know what qwami is doing. i like his ties. melissa: they're fabulous. >> i don't know what he is involved in politics or not in. i don't know why a press conference would be important from ex-"apprentice" members. keep their eye on the ball and move forward. mr. tru

even from a hunter like corey. >> i'm not a hunter.hat somebody wants to pay so much money to shoot an old innocent bull, if you leave the emotion behind it and you just think of the facts as long as it's not indiscriminate and it's done in a tiny fashion if that makes sense -- >> and as long as that money really gets to conservation. >> that is the secret. >> but map can't leave the emotion out of it. to him passion of the crowd is the only thing that prevent extinction. >> the humans of this world are starting to understand that there's less and less wild. when i say wild, it's not just the animals. it's the wild places. the places that actually we are. where there is a wild thing in every single man. it's where his soul is. it's where his soul came from. and it's getting less and less and less. and i believe, i really do, i know i've been convert ed, that when people no longer go out and just kill wild animals for pleasure, for pleasure -- you know, in africa we still have communities killing wild animals to live. but to kill wild a

we talked to corey lewandowski earlier. from my perspective any time the people aren't voting or participating fully, they're not getting full representation, that's a problem. because it's a national party, and i know state s want to make their own decisions on how to do things, okay, but the decision should be do we want to caucus, do we want a primary, do we want proportional distribution or winner take all? i don't like the idea of unbound delegates in any case. >> can't like what happened in colorado. colorado went ahead, there's probably a million voters, gop side, that could have voted but never got the opportunity to -- >> as many as a million. >> as many as a million. because the rnc at the local level, the state level decided we're going to give this to the delegates. that we pick. >> by the way, then they tweeted out -- >> you know who got those? those are people who work for the system. part of the establishment. >> well, again, look at the tweet out there. if i'm a donald trump supporter, i read the gop colorad

let's listen. >> corey lewandowski has not had a trial and they are calling for his head. why they tried and convicted him. second, east women has now shot herself in the foot. it could be a hard sell for each of the women now covering the election to say she is first. >> i don't know about that. >> they are commentators. >> i don't think this is an issue like an ideological issue but an issue we agree he should not have grabbed her. afternoon the fact that, and, then, to not apologize but to engage in character assassination...it is fair to say what she said was not quite accurate but something bad did happen and they should have apologized. >> as a commentator you sign a petition and say someone should be fired is that stepping out of the role of analyst who may or may not like trump and --. law is a line. are you saying what is happening or what ought to be happening? are you an analyst of evens or advocate for a position and it is blurred constantly. >> i would not do that ever continue i agreed. >> it would be better if they had a press organization sending something

i think what corey lewandoski should have done a long time ago.tha: i'm sure he wishes he had at this point. certainly would have been a much easier way to handle the whole thing and the way to handle the story. >> corey lewandoski has been pushed aside, but paul manafort is essentially running the campaign now. martha: that's right. >> michelle fields has a lot to be angry about. she essentially had to resign from her job because her own editors didn't back her up and didn't tell the truth, which is outrage just. how with you will you believe a reporter's reporting that say what happened to her backed up by video, audio and contrary eyewitnesses. martha: thank you, jonah. bill. bill: new poll, gunk today din reference by the day. don't get that every day.

so mark corey lewandowski, does that announcement put trump's lewandowski firmly behind him? >> the first thing i want to say is people in the press everyone is innocent until proven guilty. the minute the charges were brought, everyone assumed he would be charged, tried, convict convicted, and people have to remember, innocent until proven guilty. in this case, it caused a swirl of controversy at a time when trump was going through a rough patch. i don't think at this point that even though there will be some fall out from the way the charges were dropped, which we'll discuss, i don't think it will have any impact of trump's chances of being elected. >> i agree with your first point. look, we on this program, made the point that innocent until proven guilty on the day it happened. unprecedented and we haven't seen anything like it, have a charge raised like this against a campaign manager, presidential candidate. i think at that moment in the wisconsin primary where things were going south for donald trump, first starting with the way he was treating heidi cruz and then foll

one of the defenses available to corey lewandowski.ever touched her and all that when youqá(ez the game you can sayfá look, i didn't know it was her that i touched. i was trying to protect mr. trump. that is a legal defense available in a situation like this. we don't know whether that's what went through the prosecutor's mind. >> this is a case of prosecutorial discretion. news that came out tonight prosecutors specifically asked michelle if she would be willing to take apology from corey lewandowski and this was about a week ago. this is what she asked for all along. she didn't want to press charges but the trump campaign demanded she file a police report. she did. the police then issued charges against lewandowski. and now they are using prosecutorial discretion because michelle was asked if an apology would be sufficient and she said yes. it doesn't discount from the fact megyn that the history of this case still stands. corey lewandowski denied ever touching her. he publicly lied about it. video evidence showed that he nc#-ñ only

corey lewandoski and the press loves to blow things up. corey lewandoski a month and a half ago was saying he needed help. he was there alone. >> right. >> so, yeah, i'mshire alway shu always because it's politics, sharp elbows. right now judging by what today will look like and the fact we were able to go another sunday without seeing him on all five sunday shows shows discipline. >> that's true. the point mark made the point when the history of this is written, the people to be looking back on is this move to professionalize and expand the circle came too late. there may be some strife and there may be -- nobody likes some big feet walking around that campaign. the real question whether this should have happened a month and a half ago when it became clear professionalism and growth required. if he ends up falling a few delegates short one day, somebody could have said if it had been a month earlier it would have been better. >> trump wouldn't have allowed it a month earlier because he was in fighting mode. he only allowed this, we talked

corey put the best face on it. there is a sense of tension between the original group, like corey lewandowski and the team he put together and this new more establishment group like paul manafort, someone you and i have known since the reagan years. and he's put together an operation here in d.c. and they're starting also to reach out to members of congress. should he have done it a long time ago? >> it is smart and he's very late to the party. literally to the party. i mean, he became a republican sort of on june 15th before that he was a funder of democrats and he had positions that were indistinguishable from the democrats. but what is puzzling about this is on the one hand he's coming to washington saying i want to get to know you. i want to deal with the leaders of the party. on the other hand, he says what happens in casper, wyoming, and colorado springs, colorado, is too ruthless for me to handle. this is a man who boasts that he has thrived in the cutthroat new york city real estate market. boasts that he h

corey is 100% in charge. he, has been, and will be, you know, corey's run a campaign that's collected 2 million more votes than anybody else. he's done an amazing job. mr. trump is incredibly loyal to him, and he's incredibly loyal to mr. trump. and though the washington spin machine wants to do all these things to corey, corey's not the issue. and corey's doing a great job. >> the final question i want to ask you about is electability. if we assume that mr. trump is going to get the nomination, in general election polls, and i know you seem to be pooh-poohing a lot of these polls, but donald trump trails hillary clinton in every key state including florida and ohio. he's down double digits in wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania, and he's so negatively viewed by so many people, he far and away beats everyone in being upside down in favorability ratings. how do you win a general election with those kinds of numbers, barry? >> well, this is interesting to me. because you know, everybody likes to talk about donald

corey lewantowski has problems. and there are reports that trump is trying to take his campaign in a different direction. is that overstating it, chris? it is interesting, there are two sides in the trump camp. each say they are running things. and they to a certain degree could be right. there is a inside and outside game going on here. that's what peter doocey was talking about. the inside game of trying to get your support so when you get to the convention in cleveland, you have 1237 delegates that will vote for donald trump. and that is different than the retail campaigning that is going on for new york in next tuesday and pennsylvania a week from tuesday. there are two games going on. i think there is jockeying for position and power inside of the trump campaign and it will be interesting to see how it shakes out. i am not sure it is resolved yet. >> it would appear from the outside perspective, that ted cruz outmaneuvered trump when it comes to the delegate hunt. but in places like colorado, he has really show

we had no choice. >> corey is a complicated person. >> my brother corey is a funny guy. >> nasty. >>used to beat each other up, steal candy, steal bikes. >> my brother william is very smart. >> take money out of wishing wells together, set fires. >> i don't know how he got caught up. >> family, it's been so many years since we drifted apart. it didn't mean i don't love you. i was lost in the dark. >> william would just start speaking in spoken word kind of out of nowhere. we would just be talking to him, and he would break out into a rhyme. his poems were really meaningful to parts of his life and his story. >> at one point in time, alcohol was my friend. i will call it a genie in the bottle. my name is addiction. and i'm the genie in the bottle. wherever you go, sir, i will surely follow. hold up. i was going to take a sip from that bottle. but first be warned it's going to be the hardest thing to swallow. well, you're a grown man -- >> william, corey and melissa were all arrested on charges of assault and battery. they were separate incidents, but each of their crimes was motivated

much more in my guest with trump campaign manager, corey lewandowski. a sweep for hillary could put hillary clinton get her within 90% of the 2383 delegates needed for the democratic nomination and all but close out any path to the nomination for senator bernie sanders. reporters are stationed up and down the states today. we begin with sara murray, trump headquarters in new york city. the trump campaign is confident tonight but a feeling they have something to prove here. >> reporter: jake, the trump campaign is poised for a big night. they know that. they feel like they are going to get good momentum coming out of states. they can clean up in all five. they are hoping momentum will carry them forward to some contests like indiana, where it's tougher for trump and they are hoping that winning big tonight and by continuing to end going forward they will be able to note this case donald trump is inevitable, there's no point in continuing to fight against him. they are trying to prove that they do have a ground game, they know how to do the work. pennsylv

the alternative would have been huge for corey lewandowski and the campaign.ood, i think there is a message for campaign managers going forward, try to err on the side of not touching reporters that all. lewandowski's attorney and donald trump himself spoke to them and offered their sides of the story. they said that the political pressure had no bearing on their final determination. this case has led to a lot of muscle lettering headlines. -- lead it to a lot of not so flattering headlines. how much damage will do is due to trump? will it have lasting effects? what trumpnk that making the case for his campaign manager, his friend, corey lewandowski, is inappropriate. that is political pressure in my judgment. an employer giving your side of the story in that way does not cross a line. as least as far as what i know in that moment. think that it is not uncommon for prosecutors to decide not to go lord after someone is charged. i think it can't called and said these are facts that you might want that would be one thing, but it seems like he did more. he talks a

corey lewandowski will not be prosecuted for battery with michelle fields. the prosecutor will not move forward with charges in the incident. this is when fields said she was grabbed by corey lewandowski and pulled back and he left bruises. this removes another distraction for the trump campaign. they are trying to bring in new, more seasoned political operatives. so far, none of this extends to a friendlier tone with the rnc. last night in pittsburgh, trump said the process was rigged. >> in colorado, they are picketing and going wild because the bosses and establishment and the people that shouldn't have this power took all of the power away from the voters. think of it. you beat somebody badly with the people because it's a rigged system, folks. the republican system is a rigged system. >> reporter: now we're seeing reince priebus defending the nominating process. >> the rules are there. i know people get frustrated and they're disappointed when things don't go exactly the right way. i think when people are frustrated and upset, they say things they regre

corey lewandowski is mentioned, but is this a nod of confidence in corey lewandowski, or is this a nodoing to take it to the convention. >> we need to get bigger and better and more people who understand the process. donald trump clearly had a problem with delegate math. he didn't know how it worked. it's almost as if he was going to build a building, he bought a plot of land and didn't check the zoning. he just didn't know. he just didn't know the technical side of it. and he needs, you know, he needs folks. i don't look at it as a bad thing. it's a smart move. you see shakeups all the time. this isn't that significant. >> when we talk about the attrition, getting to the number of 1,237, can he really be stopped if he gets to that number? and arrives neconvention, is there a plan b for republicans who don't want him, or is it his on the first ballot? >> if he gets to 1,237, he gets it. yet is what if he gets to 1,236. >> gimme. >> it's not a gimme. >> trump would say i want a gimme. gimme one. >> it's kind of not. there are a lot of people whose unbound delegates will vote differently

corey put the best face on it. there is a sense of tension between the original group like corey lewandowski and the team he put together and this new more establishment group like paul manafort, somebody who you and i have known since the reagan years. and he has put together an operations here in d.c. and they're starting also to reach out to members of congress. is it smart to set this up? should he have done it along time ago? >> it is smart. and he is very late to the party. literally to the party. when he became a republican sort of on june 15th. before that he was a funder of democrats and he had positions that were indistinguishable from the democrats. what is puzzling about this on the one hand, he is coming to washington, saying i want to get to know you and i want to deal with the leaders of the party. on the other hand, he says what happens in casper, wyoming, and colorado springs, colorado is too ruthless for me to handle. this is a man who boasts that he has thrived in the cutthroat new york city real

>> there are no winners here today. >> we came here without corey. we go home without him. >> in court nguyen addressed the judge at times sobbing uncontrollably. "i place blame at my feet. i ask family and friends for forgiveness. i'm sorry for everybody's grief on both sides." he pleaded no contest to the murder of madison. last year nguyen broke in the home of his ex-wife and her new husband and shot her new husband multiple times. killing him on the as he laid dying. they called at it prolong ram pain of rage before issuing sentence of life in prison. >> nothing happened today to make tomorrow easier or harder. it will continue to be hard. we all agreed if we left with sorery honored and people -- corey honored to see the man he was, that is the best case scenario. >> they had two children together and corey had two children from the previous marriage. two of the five children were at the home when the murder took place. jeff goldberg, abc7 news. leon: thank you. alison: hundreds of people showed up to pay respects to chad dermyer. officer around

the problem is corey said he never touched the woman. they smeared this woman. this isn't appropriate behavior for a staffer. i don't think it's a victory for donald trump. corey's family may be relieved. it's still a reminder of how this campaign acts. the behavior donald trump condones among staff and that gives a lot of people pause. >> i agree with all of that. obviously, it's, you know, better not to be prosecuted than to be prosecuted. but frankly what we've seen from the trump campaign over the last few weeks as far as anyone can tell is the marginalization of corey lewandowski. you saw it today bringing on rick wiley, the former -- former campaign runner for scott walker. trump has moved to sort of put the campaign in other hands. and it's not just because of this incident. it's also because they've been doing a terrible, terrible job of delegate competition in places like colorado. but basically whatever relief is felt, it's also true that lewandowski is sort of on his way out in certain ways. >> ross, what's do you make of this battle between this batt

corey lewandowski will not be prosecuted on misdemeanor battery. the county state attorney scheduled to announce that decision. nicole: bernie sanders and hillary clinton looking for the labor vote, five days until the key presidential primary, the two democratic candidates join verizon workers on the picket line after 40,000 of the workers went on strike. >> thank you for your courage in standing up for justice against corporate greed. >> we need to engage in real negotiation. it has been going on for months and people need to come to the table and reach an agreement. nicole: sanders criticized verizon for wanting to outsource jobs and avoid federal income taxes. verizon's ceo fired back accusing sanders of getting the facts wrong and mc adams said verizon pays its fair share of taxes adding in their financial statement we pay $15.5 billion in taxes over the last two years and that is a 35% tax rate in 2015 for anyone who is counting. fox news's megyn kelly had an interview with reverend al sharpton on the kelly file last night, sharpton said he i

corey lewandowski, you probably know the name. a little controversy around corey lewandowski.e's been the campaign manager. he's been the face in a lot of ways of the trump campaign from the beginning. having his troubles with that incident with the reporter recently. now in terms of potentially being outs organized. some of these delegate battles in north dakota, in colorado. maybe donald trump losing a bit of confidence in the strategic vision of corey lewandowski. this has been the brain trust for the trump campaign. you see the new people coming in. we talked about manafort. a veteran operative on the republican side. we talk a lot about the last time there was an open convention, contested convention on the republican side. 1976. 40 years ago. gerald ford being challenged by ronald reagan. paul manafort was involved in that convention 40 years ago. the last contested republican convention. now he's running the convention operation for trump. and also rick wiley. scott walker, the wisconsin governor who was in this race this presidential race last year, dropped out early,

nicole: fields is considering suing corey lewandowski for defamation. nicole: the irs is not to be trusted. there is strong evidence the irs violated constitutional rights of the tea party group delay nonprofit status application and asked inappropriate questions, the court is trying to determine if the tax agency is still targeting tea party groups. nicole: a setback for north korea. a missile to celebrate north korea's found or failed even though the test was a done. is a troubling sign that they are developing ballistic missiles, some that could reach parts of the united states. the latest missile is supposed to be able to hit guam and the philippines as soon as today. asked carter currently visiting. federal health officials said this week that the zika threat is more widespread than originally thought and there is a link between the virus and birth defects. on after the bell yesterday the deputy center for disease control director asked how long after getting the zika virus a woman should wait until the woman gets pregnant. >> we believe the virus

trump may comment on his campaign manager corey lewandoski being cleared of battery charges. so we'll be bringing you back to that event as soon as donald trump start the speaking either way. a few hours ago the florida prosecutor made this statement. >> this office will not be filing charges against corey lewandoski for battery. while the evidence in this case is legally sufficient for the police to have charged mr. lewandoski, it is not strong enough to meet the legal burden of a reasonable likelihood of a conviction. it is unethical for us to file cases when we believe there is not a good-faith basis to proceed. >> this is "risk & reward." i'm deirdre bolton. the trump team says that a big overhanging issue has been resolved. so here is the full statement. corey lewandoski gratified bit decision to drop the misdemeanor charge appreciates the thoughtful conversation and professionalism by the palm beach state attorney and his stave who carefully reviewed this matter as well as mr. trump's loyalty and support of his colleagues and his family during this time. the matter is n

>> the two inmates are corey long and -- >> do you have any pain on you?> no, my knuckles. >> and iron robinson. >> all i got is a little ice pack because i got a little knock, really, from head buttin', but i ain't tripping, you know. just a little war wounds. >> here you see the inmates as i'm bringing the inmates in, i open the door, they're stepping in. the fight is actually taking place right now. >> the fight occurred just to the left of the surveillance camera's view. deputies respond within seconds. when they deploy pepper spray to break it up, other inmates can be seen reacting to it. >> they got pepper spray now. so we identified the one person in the purple shirt. >> handcuffed by deputies, long is now in the camera's view. robinson has already been removed from the scene. both men have been in jail for about a month. but their conflict began on the streets. >> on the street i ain't worried about him on the street. but in jail i already know i've got to fight him because i'm going to run into him, and it ain't going to be like, oh, what's up or

i never heard from corey. >> let's talk about not hearing from corey. >> that evening after i read her boy friend's twitter account i made a phone call to michelle and never heard back. it's not that we didn't try to reach out to get to the bottom of it, she wanted to make it a story and now i'm glad the story is over. he says the phone log shows he made a call that night. did you receive a call? >> i did not get a call to my knowledge. there was no voice mail, text, e-mail following up to try to communicate. >> if he would have apology apologized that night it wouldn't have blown up. >> i didn't do interviews, i was getting tons of requests. i stayed quiet. the only reason i went to the police is because donald trump was saying i was making it up and questioning the bruises. the spokes person for donald trump was going on tv saying if this really happened why didn't she go to police. i felt they forced me to. i had no choice. i had to go get my bruises documented and that show the police this happened. they were saying i put make up on my arm. i had to bring someone in the situation t

corey lewandowski, not going to be prosecuted. and it's over otherwise, and what is your read on trump saying i am not going to go into the system, it's a bad system and i will change the system and then hires two guys who are all about working the system no matter how dirty it gets. now he just hired a second one. is that campaign changing and if so the right way? >> the campaign is changing along the lines of becoming more of a mainstream republican consulting class operation. rick wiley is the elite consulting class in washington, and on the one hand donald trump is demonstrating maturity and he has to know somebody that understands the mechanics of the system. who knows what he does after that. that's what it demonstrates to me, maturity as a candidate that is serious about winning. >> do you get what i am asking? >> i do. people would say he doesn't have a position on this or these kind of people, that evolves and paul manafort, and this is the exactly kind of guy you have to have in a winning campaign, somebody who is a conv

i have always worked with corey, have had a great relationship with corey. mr. trump has not said anything of that nature to me. >> so you said something interesting. you said there's going to be more emphasis on what ted cruz is doing in terms of gathering delegates. is that sort of an admission that up until this point ted cruz has been doing it better? >> oh, no, no, no, not gathering delegates, stealing, lying, and bribing people to become delegates. i'm sorry if i wasn't clear. >> stealing, lying, and bribing. >> that's pretty clear. where is the bribing? explain. >> oh, just, you know, people -- bribing people to be a delegate for him and what he'll promise them i do not know because i actually didn't have a recording device to hear the bribes, but i have seen it in action. i'm on the ground. i'm working very closely with paul, as i said, and his team, and we are leaving no stone unturned because i know for a fact that mr. trump cares about every single one of his delegates, and he's leaearned a these delegates. i'm just so excited because finally new york

for more about the news conference regarding trump campaign manager corey lewandowski. know what's going to be announced at the press conference. we have a picture up at the podium. we should hear from the state attorney, david aaronburg, in a few minutes but in the meantime, paperwork is filed with the clerk of the court concerning this case. and in the paperwork, it's a very short statement. it says although there was probable cause to make an arrest, the evidence cannot prove all of the legally required elements of the crime alleged. and it is insufficient to support a criminal prosecution. so as we go back to the beginning of when this first happened, it was this piece of videotape that initially was the evidence that the jupiter police department relied on. they looked at this evidence and they felt that they did see that corey lewandowski did what was called a simple battery by grabbing that reporter's arm, michelle fields. she then eventually complained to the police department, and her complaint was investigated. in addition to the videotape, there was a second

news today about corey lewandowski, there will not be a charge pressed against him. does this put the matter to rest for the trump campaign? >> i mean i think the trump campaign is reeling from a cycle of negative press that he suffered because of the allegations against mr. lewandowski. i think it probably does close this issue specifically for the most part. but then again, lewandowski already has been layered with addition of news staff, the trump forces realize that they needed to beef up their campaign infrastructure to compete for delegates in what is looking increasingly like a contested question. >> raul, contested convention, i'm looking at this, we saw what happened in wisconsin, trump got outorganized in colorado, other places but i'm looking at this saying, he wins new york big next week, next week you got pennsylvania, delaware, rhode island, trump-friendly states here. we could get to the end of the month and he could be back to 400-delegate lead over ted cruz. >> it's a narrow path but the path is there. i think that the people have spoken with that, t

maddy's biological father nguyen had stormed in the house shooting and killing corey. despite the ongoing threat, maddy, the oldest of the five rushed into the home and directed her siblings into a bathroom for cover. she then called 911 and directed officers to the house where they arrested nguyen. >> the strength of god or the fact that i really wanted my siblings to be safe. >> she is brave. absolutely brave and courageous. i don't think most adults could do what she said in that situation. >> today, maddy's bravery was honored with an award for valor and a standing vocation. [applause] >> all i oh, my goodness, this room is going to stand up for my daughter. yeah. that is kind of amazing. >> of all the bad things that have been happening in the past year, i'm so blessed that i got this moment. jeff: through it all, maddy was thinking about corey. the man she considers her true father. she says she knows that on this day he was looking down smiling. >> i kind of pictured in my head he would be doing like this thing. he did it whenever he was happy. saying he was pro

corey lewandowski is probably well insured.er will come in and agree to make some kind of a payment so that this will go away. are we going to see a trial with donald trump who's going to testify and these other people that lost their jobs with her are going to testify? i doubt it. >> this this case, surveillance video helped or hurt who? >> it helped corey. we watched that tape until we were blue in the face, there was no crime there. there was a little touching that's not a criminal offense. >> so the question is, if she does sue corey lewandowski for defamation of character, because he called her delusional -- >> that is probably an accepted opinion. remember, opinion is not the basis for defamation as long as there's a basis for the opinion. >> sir, i find you delusional by order of the court. >> all right. meanwhile, let's talk about something -- last night it was electrifying television. megyn kelly went over to the event and al sharpton was there. they talk whaebd happened in forget -- talked about what happened in fergu

>> personally, for corey lewandowski, it's huge. reputation, livelihood, was at stake here. let's be honest. at this point, it's off the table and politically for the trump campaign, you can hear the sighs of relief coming from trump tower right now. this is something they have off their plate at a time where they really need to focus on the delegates. >> does it take away some of the speculation and discussion about what's really going on in that campaign and whether corey lewandowski is embattled? all of a sudden that calms down. >> it does. also at the same time where they're expanding their campaign. they just hired scott walker's former campaign manager to be the national political director, so they're becoming more of a traditional campaign. corey lieu wewandowski now seem be even more safe than he was before. >> it was not out of the fold, but now much more shored up. very significant. this comes as we are moments away now from this big town hall. we've been seeing the families. tonight, we're going to see heidi cruz and ted

but i am quite certain corey lewandowski will feel pretty vindicated right now.ampaigns would have handled a moment like this is there would have been an apology, or, yes, i did but in the course of normal business. >> this isn't about corey, did he do it, did he not. any normal staffer would have been fired just for lying about the event. the fact that donald trump kept him on staff and would put him on stage after victory to send a signal that this is the type of people i surround myself with is very disturbing. >> all right. let's change direction right now because i'm just told that new york governor andrew cuomo has just been able to join us. governor cuomo, thanks so much for joining us. i know you're a hillary clinton supporter and are in town to rally for raising the minimum wage. just to tackle that substantive issue for one second, what's your response to those businesses who say they can't afford to raise the minimum wage without perhaps eliminating a job or two in their business? >> yeah, look, i don't think there's anybody who will disagree with the

in corey gardner figured out early on the best way to respond to that in a cheerful, truth based way. so it's not all complaining about how the sky is falling, it's falling, it's not all what right wing either. we believe that in order for this issue, the free exchange of ideas, and cutting down on demagoguery, or cutting cutting some of it out of our diet, it has to come the people of goodwill on both ends of the spectrum. we have to link arms and say let's come together as americans, calm down a little bit and not assume the very worst about each other on every issue so we can actually have a discussion rather than and it before it began. >> you can see you on fox news and cnn, you can buy your book you're watching book tv. >> this weekend on afterwards, sue, the mother of dylan cleavable discussions the junction between violence and mental illness. she is in conversation with mary gilberti, on the national alliance of mental illness. >> in 1999 your son dylan and eric harris took the lives of 12 students and one teacher in their high school and then their own. 24 others were wounde

tom: let's do the corey lewandowski.lle field says i'm not going to get a prosecution out of this case. does she have a case defamation? >> she may have a better case she may be a public figure in this instance when he made her a public figure. the vortex. so for this instance she is a public figure. >> it has reckless disregard for the true natural malice. >> you have to show actual malice which is recklessness. >> put her down and ruin her life. tom: why would you say more of a case against donald trump? if you look at the video he's oblivious to what going on. >> defamation is what happened afterward. what he said. i think she just made it up. he trump is obviously a bigger name and bigger character. >> he saw the tape and said. >> here is the thing when it gets to damages. she quit her job. she was not fired. tom: that's important to know. >> to me that's important to a jury. damages she quit her job. tom: then what are her damages? >> how did her reputation get injured when she is the one who pulled the plug. >> def

corey lewandowski's response to a question about that, he said those changes mean that we are growing his words. just go back to a conversation you were having about getting o 1,237, according to corey lewandowski we have to get to 1,237 no question about it. >> 95 delegates up for grabs in new york. that's about 8% of the 1,237 needed to secure the nomination on the republican side. let's go to senator ted cruz. he's in philadelphia tonight. should we be reading into the fact that senator cruz is in the state that's not holding a primary tonight, but in a week? >> reporter: that's absolutely right. the cruz campaign and senator cruz himself not projecting confidence in any way at their chances in new york. we just heard senator cruz already wrap up his speech here in philadelphia tonight. his only mention that the new york primary is going on tonight, a brief mention at the top of the remarks where he said i'm not going to talk to you about some politician tonight who is going to win his home state. he said rather he's going to talk about his vision forward so all but ignoring the ne

then as you see in the video we have app all seen, corey lewandowski reaches over and grabs her. what is interesting about the video is the prosecutors show that michelle fields at one time was corralled with other reporters at the bottom of the screen. in the back of the room. then she walks across the room and then works her way up solo along some chairs to move into an area where donald trump is now moving towards the back of the room. and that's where she moved in and enter wlaed they call the protective bubble. a bubble that is created around candidates for their protection. they noted here that protective bubble is not just for the public but rather even for reporters. kate? >> kerry sanders, thank you. for reaction from the trump campaign, receiving information from katy tur. what is the campaign saying? >> the campaign just released a statement. i will read it directly to pup corey lewandowski is gratified by the decision to drop the miss demeanor charge and appreciates the thoughtful consideration and professionalism by the palm beach attorney and staff. and thanks the t
