it -- accepted invitations to a republican event sponsored by billionaire brothers charles and david kocha luxury resort in california. the koch brothers have vowed to spend $889 million on the 2016 election cycle. protesters shot to said light on the secretive event by photographing the donors as they walked in. in puerto rico, the government failed to pay a $58 million debt payment on saturday. lawmakers are pushing for legislation that would allow puerto rico to declare bankruptcy. hedge funds are lobbying against the legislation. saturdays missed payment will push the commonwealth into fishel default by the end of the day on monday. in germany more than 1000 people demonstrated in berlin in solidarity with two journalists who may be facing a treason investigation. the federal prosecutors said it was opening the treason investigation after the publication of two articles. one of the journalists spoke out on saturday. >> the accusation is particularly absurd because it is a matter of sect service spying. without whistleblowers like edward snowden, we would have no idea what the secret s

punches this weekend when he had this to say attending a forum hosted by wealthy donors, charles and david koch. i wish good luck to all of the republican candidates that traveled to california to beg for money, et cetera, from the koch brothers. puppets? >>> now, tonight's forum isn't a debate, but it is a chance for the candidates to practice talking about their policy positions in a concise way. trump has said he doesn't feel you can artificially prepare for a debate, so it doesn't sound like he's doing a lot of rehearsing. as for the other candidates, well, ted cruz joked about it saying i have a lot of skills. predicting donald trump isn't one of them. >> not one of mine, either. athena jones, thank you very much. >>> let's talk with former campaign manager for hillary clinton, patty lees doyle. >>> and tom davis, and congressman davis, we should disclose you also sit on the board 6 a super-pak that supports john kasich -- you ran hillary clinton's campaign last time around. if you were still there today, how much would you be worrying about vice president biden. >> when he was obama's run

the other is david koch. he militanted gold dimes with his own head on them. trump, the game. it has long and complicated instructions. they boil down to what you think they would boil down to. they boil down to the player with the most money wins. the best part of this that should make this classic in the lang long hall. truly, the deep contribution of this find which we got from beth in frederick, maryland. go up a little bit. scan up a little bit. look. it's the game has a sub title. >> who sub titles a game? trump the game is the big game and then look at the sub title. it's not whether you win or lose but whether you win. isn't it though? it's amazing. it's amazing. there's a lot going on in the news and a lot to get to on the news. there's a poll that shows donald trump leading by a mile in the republican race for president. he's 26 %. second place is scott walker 12 points behind donald trump. jeb bush is at 10. everybody else is in single digits. the democratic side today, hillary clinton gave one of the best speeches in ages on an interesting topic. we have tape from

trust me, bill and i were talking before we got on here, if charles koch and david koch pretty much credited or blamed for every single penny that's spent on a conservative or libertarian cause or issue or candidate. so fl is no dark money as with regard to the kochs in my opinion. but reality is there's a cost to disclosure. and from a cost benefit analysis in my opinion i don't quite see who really pays attention to this other than activists on each side that want to harass, intimidate, create lists, people to put together lists and try to intimidate. i don't think it really brings about a lot of full and fair discussion in our country anymore. >> i'll ask you this question and then ask it of greg. might there be a difference for disclosure for individuals like kochs or advocacy individuals, like the naacp which should be able to have anonymous membership lists and exxon, could that be different for campaigns you want corporations to disclose but not individuals? >> you're asking me? >> yeah. >> look, i don't -- i think that there's a lot of disclosure for campaigns it's compelled if it's

a handful of republican candidates this week are all in california meeting with the charles and david koch brothers, huge backers of republicans to make their case and hopefully plug into their network, which has promised to spend 900 million on the candidate of their choice. in a recent "new york times" cbs news poll 84 percent of the country said they believed money had too much influence in american political campaigns, 66 percent said that the wealthy have a greater chance to influence elections than other americans. joining us now to discuss the role of money in campaign 2016, former sec commissioner, a republican appointee trevor potter is now president of the watchdog group the campaign legal center, she covers campaign money for the washington post, stephen law is the head of american crossroads, which is a conservative political action committee, and cbs news correspondent juliana goldman who covers money for us. welcome to all of you. juliana, i want to start with you. every campaign we learn that more money was spent than the campaign before. that is likely to be happening again

the new york times," the political network overseen by the conservative billionaires charles and david koch plans to spend close to $900 million on the 2016 campaign. that figure dwarfs how much the republican national committee and the party's two congressional campaign committees spent in the 2012 election. meanwhile, hillary clinton has a -- has set a fundraising goal of $2.5 billion. today we are joined by a law professor who is considering challenging clinton in the democratic primary. his platform is simple -- get money out of politics. harvard professor lawrence lessig says that if he won the presidency, he would serve only as long as it takes to pass sweeping campaign finance reform. then, he says, he would resign. in 2012, lessig launched rootstrikers to fight the corrupting influence of money in politics. he is a legendary figure in the world of cyberlaw credited with helping to create creative commons, an alternative copyright system. lawrence lessig welcome back to democracy now! are you announcing your candidacy for president of the united states? ifwell, what we have said is b

powerhouse gop donors david and charles koch did not invite trump to their summer fund-raiser. trump suggested his gop rivals who were invited might be puppets who had to beg for money, et cetera, from the koch brothers. while thursday's nationally televised debate is the first of the campaign, today's forum in new hampshire could loom large for candidates like bush, who made a solid showing in the first primary. bush has vowed to be ready to rumble with trump. >> i'll have my big boy pants on. i won't have my little shorts with the nickers on. >> reporter: marco rubio, currently polling in the midsingle digits is among a group of republicans that may not make it into thursday's primetime debate unless they find a way to tap into the excitement trump has generated. >> clearly he has hit on a theme that people are frustrated by, particularly illegal immigration. >> reporter: trump yesterday fired a campaign worker for posting racially charged remarks on facebook about reverend al sharpton's daughter. he also continues to flirt with a third-party run if he doesn't win the gop nom

[laughter] >> david fitter is likely the next governor of louisiana was koch with prostitutes votersive you. >> even if you have a crazy fetish most would have naked photos leaked plan their financial information the means i am doing great because my "girls gone wild" appearance is o / seven. so with people rather have new did apex? >> ideal because think about the text messages that people send each other and random strangers. with technology being what it is that we will take get off. but they feel their finance is is their power it is the one secret left i think they valued at more. kennedy: it is a lot easier to lie about being gay bollard if you have an icn bangor pair of jordan's? sunday you honestly think there is more for their ability to have their financial information and out there then to be naked? >> i think it is a shade of gray. kennedy: knots a movie's fetish. >> already talking about my bags. kennedy: in ocean and dip in a speedo on a cold day? [laughter] >> shameful? i am i'm pretty proud of my credit report i will go with that. kennedy: your house robbed or a pitch

with the exception the koch brothers probably didn't plan for the republican front-runner to be a billionaire himself and that somebody probably can't control. spent we invited davidvisible, vocal passionate defender of hillary clinton which is a full-time job. david brock, at this moment are you more irritated with fox news or "the new york times"? >> "the new york times." that's an easy question. you know look -- >> let's ponder for a second you can complaint about "the new york times," coverage of investigation of e-mails the handling of the clinton e-mail. what if they just made a mistake speak with well look, institution of journalism make mistakes all the better i think there are a couple of issues. one, it's not the first time. there's a pattern. the first e-mail story they broke was also botched and they had to walk back. i think the second thing is the way they handled it, i think there are questions that readers of "the new york times" still don't know about how all this went down and for -- >> what isn't known about how it went down? >> i think the issue is how did this happen? you know, in the case of 60 minutes when they botched the story that was als

koch brothers. and that will probably get you an applause line even if it's a cheap shot. >> david ignatius -- >> is that the way forward? >> i actually think that you've offered the best argument and said what's at stake is too big to risk losing this white house and then the subtext is and she's damaged goods, yeah. >> david ignatius, nicholas confessore, thank you very much. jeff greenfield, thank you as well. your latest book "if kennedy lived, the first and second terms of john f. kennedy in alter tat minate history." >>> up next, new jersey governor chris christie joins us next right here in the studio. you're watching "morning joe." we'll be right back. remember pa. or obsess about security. she'll log in with her smile. he'll have his very own personal assistant. and this guy won't just surf the web. he'll touch it. scribble on it. and share it. because these kids will grow up with windows 10. get started today. windows 10. a more human way to do. no sixth grader's ever sat with but your jansport backpack is permission to park it wherever you please. hey. that's that new gear feeling. this

attacking the koch brothers saying if they were capitalists, they would be about the free market in solar energy. guess what? solar energy is the most subs died died-- subsidize $in the country. davidbsidized despite the fact that they lied about what they were doing. hillary clinton is doubling down and wants a half a billion government supported panels. >> i'm not sure why hillary clinton or anybody at the department of energy or congress would say that they are better judges of solar panels to put or any solar panel to put on your house because the thing of it is, the way it works right now, solar energy seems cheap at the beginning, but it increases in cost to the consumer after a period of time. it's pretty expensive to have solar panels on your roof. i'm talking five, ten years out. so is solar energy something we should look at. >> yeah. should the free markets decide whether works or not? yeah. half a billion solar panels that hillary clinton wants, right now they could be the equivalent of typewriters the way that solar energy is evolving and getting better over time. so you put the solar panels in place right now, we could have a smaller solar panel down the road and we'r
