essentially, the talking points said, if there was any misconduct by enron, it was up to the federal energy regulatory commission to investigate and punish the company. i'm not going to ask you if you remember the specific document. but was that your view that it was the regulatory body that was supposed to stop this sort of misconduct? >> i'm not recalling the specifics of that, senator. my role as a general matter was to help gather documents in response to senator lieberman's committee's request, as i recall. i know ferc would have a role in that, but i don't know if i thought primary or -- i don't think that was my area of experti expertise. i'm not recalling specifically. >> have you no conscience? god will judge you. >> thank you, mr. chairman. >> senator hatch. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i appreciate the way you have conducted these hearings. in spite of these type of irresponsible outbursts and so forth. it's hard to believe. judge kavanaugh, i would like to commend you for how you conducted yourself. >> you have been watching another extraordinary moment this morning on cap

if you go back to the time of enron, everyone who followed the news and knew the story assumed that enron the enron executives would absolutely have it handed to them, but then when they actually went to trial, it didn't turn out that way. so a guy like andrew weissman knows the risks in going to trial even when you've got a case with a bounty of evidence on your side. >> reporter: that's a great point, and we saw that in the virginia trial where there was -- we were told there was one holdout juror that prevented a unanimous verdict on all 18 counts against paul manafort. it only takes one juror to hang a jury, and that was certainly the risk that the mueller team was looking at going into this trial in ex-we -- next week in washington, d.c. the evidence is massive and overwhelming. at the end of the day paul manafort looks like he's decided to fold his cards, plead guilty, and now it seems to cooperate with robert mueller. >> cooperate with robert mueller. ken, stick around. i want to bring in on the phone former federal prosecutor glenn kirschner again. what's your take? andrew weissma

was quite a significant mobilization of protest is that we seen lately is this likely to continue enron what are the plans going forward. well as long as the palestinians arriving on the boat after friday prayers the protests will consider continue we all sing stable numbers they haven't got any bigger than we've seen in previous weeks but they certainly haven't diminished in number and they're spreading across the whole of the gaza strip there were talks that another front may be opened up a sixth front may be opened up by palestinian protest in the coming week this five places really that they go to to try and protest on these people are desperate they say that they are under siege by the israelis that see just been going on for nearly for over a decade now and it's real there's real suffering going on when you go to gaza you see it within the hospitals are running out of money and every week we see more and more injured go to those hospitals that are under immense pressure anyway thank you very much in line can bring us all the latest on that story hanks and ron. well now to the unit

essentiallyth they said if there was any misconduct by enron it was up to the federal energy regulatory commission to investigate and punish the company. i will not ask if you remember the specific document but is that your view that they were supposed to stop this type of misconduct? >> i don't recall the specifics of that senator. my role generally was to help gatherto documents in response to senator lieberman committees request as i recall. i know they would have a role sincerely but i don't think that was my area of expertise they do not recall specifically t4.

so you know enron was one of the greatest corporate scandals in american history. and i can tell you as a senator from california, not only did many of my constituents lose everything financially when enron collapsed under the weight of its accounting fraud, but the fraud and market manipulation contributed to an energy crisis in california. white house e-mails show you were asked to review a set of draft talking points for press secretary ari fleischer that address the role of enron's market manipulation in the california energy crisis. essentially, the talking point said, if there was any misconduct by enron, it was up to the federal energy regulatory commission to investigate and punish the company. i'm not going to ask you if you remember the specific document, but was that your view that furc was the regulatory body that was supposed to stop this sort of misconduct? >> i'm not recalling the specifics of that, senator. my role as a general matter was to help gather documents in response to senator lieberman's committee's request, as i recall. i know ferc would

shaky footing this is a headline actually from the new york times bethany mclean the one who outed enron a warrant before they collapse but this chart is quite interesting because here is when you and i began warning about fracking and this is u.s. oil production so this is about when fracking really started to take off at when interest rates were taken to zero so the green line is the u.s. oil production yellow line is russia oil production. masry of the phrase peak everything peak gas through fracking peak credit fear the central bank system peak everything now the remarkable thing that you and i have we have said this for years so. the first episode i could find was back in two thousand and nine or ten that we covered fracking and how that that it cost more than they extracted in value and we got reported by the d.n.i. reports in front of congress as this is somehow anti-american that this the fact that we've pointed this out but now this is the new york times is and read tweeted and pushed also by paul krugman so we're going to go into some of the details that they're now coming arou

i didn't know what enron was worth. there was large questions about what the worth was of any stock, right? if worldcomm was lying on their books, how do we know about anything else? you can see the dow fell sharply. almost as much as in the financial crisis. what the chart doesn't show but you can pull up, there was no corresponding run of fear of creditors in the debt market. you never had a transmission channel of leverage. consequently, nor did you have a deep misunderstanding of an entire asset class. once the accounting scandals and reforms were put in place that trust was developed within the pricing of the system and the reality that the vast majority of companies were honestly accounting for their materials, you saw the society and the economy bounce back and really a recession that really wasn't a recession is the result of the accounting scandals. so in this crisis there was a mispricing of an asset, home values. neil called it mass delusion or hysteria earlier this week at a brookings institute. he was subje

at enron we're expecting funerals to be held for those code later today and what those funerals can we expect more protests. well we might see new protests but what we'll hear is certainly very strong language from palestinians in gaza saying to them saying to the israelis that they're going to keep protesting a mouse who the defacto rulers of this strip issued a statement yesterday for the broom said that they would not be bowed they would not be broken and that they would continue to fight until the siege of gaza comes to an end so certainly expect to hear language like that from the leaders of the movement of last movement who say that they will keep these protests up and certainly these protests haven't dissipated in number there are a stable level you know they haven't increased to the a huge amount of people but they are at a significant level certainly enough to worry the israelis and rob thank you very much for that for now that is live in ramallah thank you still ahead on the bulletin new electronic voting machines and democratic republic of congo are supposed to help produce

this year and then the subsequent decision from the trumpet ministration to end its assistance to enron entirely and so on right has been looking for savings it's been looking for other sources of funding throughout the year and the workers they say that they have been unfairly targeted that one hundred of them have been either fired or been moved to early retirement already and six hundred by the end of this year face losing their jobs or at least having their status diminished severely i'm joined by as i say the director here in gaza. what's your response to that the staff here in gaza being unfairly targeted as a result of these comes. from my perspective that's nonsense we are not targeting every anyone in gaza and certainly not our staff if you lose your biggest funding source if you lose nineteen million out of one hundred ten million dollars that we spent last year on our emergency appeal related work then you have to adjust and all this emergency appeal related work funds food for one million people from some cash for work and community mental health again if you lose the main f

policy center for middle east policy at the brookings institution and he says removing funding from enron will harm the u.s. and regional security. us. to under in the simplest terms is just plain stupid it's it is callous it is un-american and it's even against u.s. national security interests why i think the why is is based on sort of really false premises that the trump ministration has the trying to ministration believes that palestinian refugees derive their their refugee status from under a they don't they derive it from international walk it's based on the false premise that other refugee populations don't transfer their refugee status is to children i think finally it's based on the false premise that cutty three hundred million dollars in funding to two u.n. agency will somehow pressure the palestinian authority to ramallah to give in to u.s. demands again the p.a. can't be seen as giving in to pressure from donald trump who is more reviled than any president in u.s. history in the palestinian society and also it doesn't affect them because most of the money that henri spends is

he'd worked for enron for sixteen years it's here that you see in an economy like garza's how much can rest on just one job. now i want to be able to help my brothers which is going to affect them mentally their families depend on me because of the difficulties of life if i knew that this would happen i never would have joined in the first place and ross says it's hard to prioritize borrowing money from elsewhere in the organization to ensure that garza gets essential services after the u.s. decision to end its three hundred sixty million dollar annual contribution. more than half of gaza's two million population are refugees it's here that the need is particularly acute it's in places like this causes such the refugee camp we find the most extreme levels of poverty and for many here aid provided by an ra is a matter of survival. she and her family survive on just three to four hours every tricity every day a barely adequate water supply and food aid is said there's no. maybe some people have money in their pockets and can survive if they stop the aid but us we have nothing there aid i
