that's what you see with me and glenn beck when i went to it and glenn said when you came to me a mormon and you an evangelical protestant, you were coming to a leper, a leper, but you loved me. you loved me. changing my life. love never, never fails! [ applause ] hope does not ride into town on air force one. it doesn't ride on the backs of donkeys or elephants. i know the bible says some day the lion will lie down with the lamb. i wish i could just have enough influence to get a donkey to lie down with an elephant. have a civil discussion so we could have better civil government. my mother took me as a boy to poverty. i didn't have an address. we got our mail at someone else's house. when i filled out the little survey card at school to tell about my dad, i didn't have one. i lived on the alleys behind someone's house on a dump, a dirty river. i bathed in the colorado. i was 5 to 10% white where i lived. a wonderful thing happened. no one taught me to hate opportunity and success. no one told me that success was an enemy. and i looked out from the mire and the muck and the misery of my

glenn beck and i are kind of cut out of the same mold. i told you last night when i introduced glenn i'm the product of a forced sex relationship imposed on a practical nurse, a home nurse. she conceived me. and desperation with no husband, meager income, she said i have to get rid of the child. a doctor said, no. possibilities. i lived in poverty without a father. i'm so typical in so many ways of the inverted prevailing world view. that's destroying our world. fatherlessness. fatherless because people don't know god the father. they don't understand commitment. and this room with filled with successful people. and success in wealth is not our problem. the farmer jesus said, thou fool. it is not your soul that's required of thee. he didn't say because it was an abundant harvest and a fertile farm. not bigger barns. he said it because he was so consumed with himself. that he could not see realistically the challenges which are, in fact, opportunities. for thinkers to deal with. the wealth creators ought to own the poverty problem. don't t

. >> in 1992, robert glenn was sentenced to three years for auto theft. when we met him 15 years later at california state prison corcoran, he was still in prison. and two of his former cellmates were six feet under. glenn murdered the first one while he was still in county jail. >> i slashed his throat repeatedly. blood was everywhere. and then another inmate passed me a shank. probably about that long with a handle on it. i just started stabbing him. stabbed him about over 100 times, in the back, sides, neck. he was crying, telling me to stop. begging for me to stop. he was still alive through all of it. >> you're smiling. >> i like that. that was one of my favorite ones right there. >> he surprised me in that he had a gleefulness about him as he was discussing the violence he had committed in prison. he had this proud little smile as he was telling us these very disturbing and violent acts. >> after murdering his cellmate in jail, glenn came to prison where his predatory behavior escalated. >> while i was there for about a year, i got about 14 assault

and we've got a great last show for you tonight glenn greenwald and jane hamsher will be joining us to talk about wiki leaks bradley manning and the assault on protesters across the country from occupy to anaheim they're facing a militarized police force then michael hastings will join us to talk about the investigation into a military hospital in afghanistan not only was there a cover up by a u.s. general but photographs of now emerged of the horrible conditions so how big could this scandal get right now all of that and more theater night including a dose of happy hour but first take a look with mainstream media decided to miss. all right so it was another one of those days where the mainstream media was all over the place from mitt romney to the olympics to the shooting in aurora. the g.o.p. presidential candidate spent the last thirty six hours in israel making a special stop at the wailing wall where he offered a prayer and romney also met with top officials including his old friend prime minister benjamin netanyahu a little history for the united states vollmer setting a new worl

glenn park is going to get $12 million for its rec center. i spent a lot of time in glenn park.t park needs it badly and i've heard from more people in that neighborhood who desperately want to see their park taken care of that are concerned about there. to the folks in miraloma park, you all know i've lived this. -- there. born and raised there. both of those playgrounds where prime candidates for the $15 million pot for di lap at a time dad -- dilapidated playgrounds. to think we would deprive the tens of thousands of citizens from those redone playgrounds other something that amounts to 2% of this bond when you have so many opportunities to express your frustration and to make change to the program really blows my mind. that said, i'm happy to work with supervisor weiner to try to find language to amend this. there is a part of me that wants to call your bluff because i think this is so bogus, but this is the process and i'm more than happy to work with you on this, but to let less than 2% of a bond stop it from going forward is one of the boldest things i've ever seen. >> ok

tonight part two of our conversation with glenn frey. the eagles are celebrating their 40th anniversary. he is out with his first new project in years. it is called "after hours." we are glad you joined us for our interview with glenn frey, coming up. >> every community has a martin luther king boulevard. it's the cornerstone we all know. it's not just a street or boulevard, but a place where walmart stands together with your community to make every day better. >> and by contributions to your pbs station from viewers like you. thank you. tavis: we're back with part two of the conversation with glenn frey. it was not supposed to happen this way, but sometimes you get a conversation that is so rich and inspiring and you want to spend more time with a great guy. we have a wonderful collection of standards and classics, and you will want to hear how he puts his own spin on this classics o stuff. we were in the middle of a story last night that i could not stop. you were talking about the heat is goneon. take of the story. >> i never thought

all that information up or is there still a way to fight big brother joining me to discuss this is glenn greenwald the line columnist and author of the book with liberty and justice for some how the law's used to destroy equality and protect the powerful glenn thanks for joining us tonight and let me think of where we start mean if you ask me it's pretty undeniable these days that we really do live in a surveillance state but as you mentioned before a lot of people out there will come at it with the attitude or with the argument that if they have nothing to hide then what are they really care that information is being monitored so how do you how do you counter something like that how do you tell people that that's not the right way to look at it. first of all there's the earth zero question that we live in a surveillance state of matter how one understands that term and i think it's important to answer your question to emphasize just how extensive it is according to the washington post and its two thousand and ten top series america top secret america series the national security agency

then to put the chart at the top of this sunday from held you have michele bachmann with help from glenn beck do her dandest to charge that the whole government, including john mccain himself, are part of the crowd taking orders from the muslim brotherhood. tonight we hear the first whistles being blown. republicanslike john mccain and lindsey graham, people who served the country in uniform. people like ronald reagan are standing up for this un-american talk. god save mccain and say i say and all the left, right and center who say enough's enough. joining us is editor at large, joe walsh. john feary is here. john, how do you explain all this talk about people learning how to be an american, the charges, you have the candidate himself on your side talking about the president being far in in his thinking. what's that angle that we are getting? because bachmann is the ultimate case of this. >> well, let me first disassociate -- take these two things apart. michele bachmann's thing is absolutely outrageous. i don't know what she's up to. mccain was absolutely right. you can quibble or have

tonight conversation with glenn frey. he has enjoyed success as a solo artist and has just released his first solo project in 17 years. it is called after hours. i am glad you joined us. >> every community has a martin luther king boulevard. it's the cornerstone we all know. it's not just a street or boulevard, but a place where walmart stands together with your community to make every day better. you. and by contributions from viewers like you. thank you.

glenn greenwald on how the law is used to destroy equality and protect the powerful. we will talk about the obama administration's failure to prosecute wall to executives, the future of wikileaks, and the growing surveillance state. but first, amy goodman goes to spend more protesters are celebrating a major victory after the country's high court opened a criminal investigation into the former head of spain's biggest mortgage lender. a former imf chief rodrigo rato. we speak with organizers of the historic may 15 movement, the indignados. >> maybe, eventually, maybe one of these guys will pay. we have this impression that no one -- they do what they won. they still, like, nothing happens. today, maybe, something will happen. i'm very happy. >> all of that and more coming up. this is "democracy now!," democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm juan gonzalez filling in for amy goodman. nato supply convoys have resumed in pakistan after the u.s. finally apologized for a deadly attack that occurred last year. pakistan had barred the nato trucks that carry supplies fo

glenn frye is back with us now. eagles greatest hits has overtaken thriller as the greatest selling american album. isn't that amaze something. >> it's incredible. it's really about the material. and i -- >> could you just retire and lived off the proceeds of hotel california, the single? >> i would have had to be >> we want health care for everyone. we want it at the cheapest possible price for the american people and for everyone involved. we want the highest possible quality for the greatest number of people and part of the problem with obama care has been that it is absolutely exploded cost. president obama promised that every american would save $2,500 a year on their health care premium and the reverse happened, going up by $2,200 so that's a $5,000 swing from what the president promised. costs are exploding. we're beginning to see denial of care by the obama care board so this is not a very good scenario where we're spending more money and we're getting less for it. i think that's why it's been very unpopular

you go into this in some length and your book some of the people you mention also are in the movie glenn hubbard larry summers frederick meskin what activities have they engaged in that impact their judgment in your view and what have been the consequences well. the these people now make millions of dollars per year each by the way. from the financial sector directly and indirectly by being on boards of directors by being on advisory boards being consultants. they give expert testimony in regulatory proceedings they testify in congress they give speeches. there is in all of those activities or are frequently paid for by their financial sector clients and that fact is frequently not disclosed when you see famous economists testifying in congress these days the odds are extremely high that he or she is being paid and paid very well by somebody who has a very strong interest in the outcome so. what's happened over the past thirty years in parallel with the rise of money in politics has been the rise of money in academia and it has had the same effect it has had the same corrupting effect on

>>> vern glenn here the giants play in the awful east coast heat. >>> the giants wilton in the heat giants highlights or lights. you had to get up early in the morning to see if serena williams could become the queen of,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, >>> a year ago serena williams had a health scare her career on the ropes after foot injuries and blood clots. her ranking drop to 175 in the world. rode into the wimbledon finals first set when this. williams went the first five games and take the set 6-1. then came the rain and to lead the match for 20 minutes. her opponent responded. she would rally to win the next set. serena is serbs again her biggest weapon 17 aces. a record 102. williams and control up in the third set. the drop in cheyenne she can serve for the match she finishes with the floors. she took the last five games. 61576 still serena is comeback complete winning her record 14th grand slam. her motion was shown here she climbed to the stance and had her husband and sister. syringed in of the company her fifth wimbledon title. martina navratilova won nine times. circassian now is tied wi

glenn made me a t.a. he was building a house with a california architect. he took me there on a hunch. after that, he enrolled me in usc architecture class at night. i suspect he paid for the tuition. i was not able to. i did really well. that was the first inkling. tavis: when you say it was the first inkling, when you did well at usc, let me back up half a beat, what do you recall about the prospective class -- that perspective class? what made the difference? that is the first sign he were passionate enough to go back and get it right. >> i think it was the teacher. he realized i failed for other reasons than skill. he took me back. it worked. i think he was a guy who was respectful. he could have said, forget it. that happened to me at usc. i took a night cuss and architecture. they put me into second gear. -- year. the teacher brought me in and said, this is not for you. tavis: i was going to ask you about that. >> he became the architect for the airport. he worked for lax. i used to run into him after he said -- i know into a sink in. -- what you are

. >> bill: glenn beck again hosting a huge conference with the theme of peace and love. should we call it beck stock? mr. beck on the factor tonight. caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone. the factor begins right now. >> bill: hi, i'm bill o'reilly. thanks for watching us tonight. new poll has president obama up big. that is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. a new nbc news "wall street journal" poll says the president is ahead of mitt romney by six points. 49-43. wow, how about that? however, that poll may not be accurate. in a rasmussen daily tracking poll today, taken among likely voters, mitt romney leads 47-44. that is a stunning 9 point difference from the "wall street journal," nbc survey. so, what is going on? well, first of all the nbc deal is registered voters, not likely voters. secondly, there is an 11-point difference democrats over republicans in the nbc journal poll. it's not that they stack the deck. it's just that the random sample came out that way. the journal's article today about the poll doesn't mention the democrat advant

it's a satisfying finish. >> jimmy: and how is glenn doing?jimmy: she does everything crazy on the show. she's the greatest. >> she's game. she's game. >> jimmy: yeah, we sumo wrestled each other last time she was here. yeah. oh, she's so fun. so what's going on? this -- this time -- ryan is like a friend of glenn's, right? >> yes. also ryan plays this -- sort of dubious character who i am defending and she is prosecuting. so it's very -- it's like a head-to-head kind of battle. >> jimmy: we have a clip. here's a preview of rose byrne in the fifth season premiere of "damages." take a look, you guys. >> i'd like to hire you. >> well, i'm interested. but i just went out on my own. i doubt i have the resources that you'll need. >> no, resources aren't a problem. i have sponsors, donors with deep pockets. >> i'm just curious. but why me? >> you came very highly recommended. >> by whom? >> patty hughes. >> jimmy: there you go right there.

glenn frye is back with us now.les greatest hits has overtaken thriller as the greatest selling american album. isn't that amaze something. >> it's incredible. it's really about the material. and i -- >> could you just retire and lived off the proceeds of hotel california, the single? >> i would have had to be frugal, but. >> it must be playing every second somewhere in the world. >> that's the one thing about this song. people tell me, i was hiking in nepal and checked into this hoss tell and guess what was playing. it becomes the soundtrack of people's lives. >> how has the industry changed most dramatically for you. given that you've been reunited for quite a long time, but you broke up for a while. how has it exchanged? >> in the '70s, when you put a record out it was a simple formula. if you had singles they went to a.m. radio, if you had great album tracks they went to f.m. radio. you did some interviews, there were a couple television shows you could do, and then you went on the road and promoted your album.

joining me now is glenn greenwald, a contributing righter at salon.com.ith liberty and justice for some" is out in paperback. thanks for coming in. >> thank you. >> we're no longer a nation of one rule of law but really two populations, one oblivious to the law and the other subject to it. when did this begin and why? >> i would say just you know that it is not so much that one is subject and one isn't. they're in different universes. you have the elite who have committed some of the most egregious crimes imaginable, torture, spying on americans massive systemic financial fraud. none of which has resulted in any legal accountability and yet at the very same time, the same class has implemented for everybody else not just a legal system, a system of punishment but the western world's harshest and most oppressive system of punishment. we imprison more of our citizens than any other country in the world. so you have this extreme impunity for a small elite class and the exact opposite world for everybody else. >> i don't want to spend too much time on history

glenn, great to have you on. we're thinking of you giving you a nickname, too. as we do with frequent guests. i'm thinking watch dog with gg at the end. think about it. >> i'm good with that. >> cenk: all right. talk to me about portugal. why did drug usage go down rather than up when they went to decriminalize? >> well, it is interesting. portugal actually had one of the worst drug problems throughout all of the 1990s. they had a particular problem with heroin addiction and they found that the more that they criminalized, the more they tried to throw people in prison for it, the more money they threw at prosecutions, the worse the problem became. it was really out of an act of desperation that they turned to decriminalization. they put together this panel of experts and asked them what would be the best policy for arresting this problem and they said decriminalization and they did it in 2001. there are two main reasons why it has worked so well. it is counterintuitive. people think you decriminalize people would use more. the opposite is true. the two big reaso

rush limbaugh, glenn beck, and newt gingrich. >> look at the skirmish that is underway. the impact of the muslim brotherhood in the u.s. government. >> do you share that concern? >> absolutely. there weren't allegations there was a question -- >> i was just asking questions, are all muslims terrorists? what? what? we just ask questions, not allegations. you people pathetic, but in a contest of former republican primary candidates and who is going to be more pathetic rick santorum didn't want to get left out. here is what we said about the president. >> if you look at what this president -- saying i'm going to change the law on welfare, eliminate the work requirement, something we fought for, president clinton signed huge transformation of the welfare roles, dramatic increases in income, and president obama gets up and says no i'm going to change the law by speaking. this sounds like a two-be it dictator, not a president of the united states. >> a two-be it dictator? that's what you are calling the president. imagine if a established democrat would have said that about ge

not just leave him be now for a next comment spade this had this question about our interview with glenn greenwald last week he said on you tube at around thirteen fifty seven glenn greenwald mentioned a project that's trying to shield the internet from government to anybody pick that up or know about any projects to protect internet users from government data mining well what glenn greenwald was talking about there was of the tor project i won't get into all the details here but you should learn more about it there's a lot of information online we should also make sure that you watch our interview with jacob apple bomb who founded to our project from earlier this year and finally as we did this to us he asked at the ilona show hey we're doing a review of the dark knight rises like you did for promethea is that was kind of funny in a subtle way now i will be more than happy to do more reviews in the future like i said before i don't go to the movies all that often these days but the dark knight rises will definitely be one of them so hopefully you'll enjoy my take on that one too so than

let's listen to glenn and michelle. >> john mccain and all the elephant media are falling right in line with the muslim brotherhood. >> michele bachmann continued her dangerous and total unsubstantiated claims against the aid. listen to her. >> she's the chief aid for the secretary of state. and we quoted from a document, and this has been well reported all across arab media, that her late father who is now deceased was a part of the muslim brotherhood. her brother was a part of the muslim brotherhood and her mother was part of the muslim sisterhood. >> it is a parallel hood, but it is part of the far right that's out there. how do you separate this kind of stuff from the mainstream republican conservativism? >> well, i was talking to several members of congress about this today and members of congress look at michele bachmann and think -- >> there are four other guys in this besides her. >> but we are just talking about michele bachmann. she's the attention of the story. there are good guys in part of the letter, but they are wrong. you have to be really careful on these types of attac
