james strang. the book is called the polygamist king and it's a true story of murder, lust and exotic taste in america. it tells a story of this remarkable man, james strang who, in short, tried to form a theocracy in lake michigan called beaver island, in the 19th century and well, things didn't go so well for him there. it's a fascinating story about a colorful man who tried to do this amazing thing. >> how did you discover the story? >> well, growing up in michigan, i learned a little bit about michigan history. when i was a kid, i was, i was always in envious of other states. i always thought all the great civil war battlefields were out east nothing happened in michigan that was something that i was concerned about. there were no battles in michigan, there weren't any forts to speak of, there's a couple, but nothing significant. at some point along the way i learned of the story, and i'm not sure where, but if you make an effort to study michigan history, read up on it and the explorers who ca

draped in diamonds, missing was mariah's most expensive access engagement ring she got from james packer. strange because she wears it everywhere including on her upcoming e! docuseries. >> you were engaged and trying on wedding dresses in the docuseries and now you're not together anymore, and -- >> now it's a whole freakin' thing. >> now it's a whole freakin' thing. >> james is featured in the series even though a source close to the couple told e.t. he wanted to be edited out. the >> he's in it. >> allegedly. >> allegedly, he didn't want to be in it. >> it's kind of difficult to talk about at this moment. >> mimi also avoided talking about this part of her docuseries. the over the top rumored with her flirting with the backup dancer. >> i don't know what's going on in my life unless something is in the magazine. >> i try to avoid. i'd rather let it go. >> another star who has mod and he's been at gma for a few months and i was a correspondent for about six years, and as much as i loved that gig, there is one thing i definitely don't miss. ?? >> what time are you guys getting up in the morning?

complaint, tomsheck alleged the border patrol's aguilar called him and his deputy james wong into a meeting and gave them a strange order -- to redefine corruption. jim tomsheck: what we were told to do was redefine corruption in a way that would reduce the actual number of corruption arrests, from what was at that point 80-something to a number that was less than 30. mr. aguilar actually took a sheet of paper and wrote a number on it that was 20-something and kept tapping it with his pen as he was explaining how we would go about redefining corruption in a way to reduce the number of corruption arrests. sharyl: how would one do that, redefine corruption? jim tomsheck: it couldn't be done, and more importantly, we wouldn't consider doing it. mr. wong and i clearly understood that we were being given an order to cook the when we returned to our offices and looked at one another, we both had the same reaction, that we had been in a bad scene in a very bad movie. sharyl: tomsheck says when he wouldn't go along, he got socked with lower job performance scores. he filed a whistleblower retaliation complaint and was eve

james greevers of milwaukee. greevers and his 69-year-old father were overcome with carbon monoxide. he is expected to recover. the strange presidential campaign and election... could get a little ?more? strange. charles benson is here with for a ?recount? in wisconsin and other pivotal states that hillary clinton was expected to win, but ?lost.? trump won the electoral college. but clinton won the ?popular? vote. green party candidate jill stein said today she will file for recounts in wisconsin, michigan and pennsylvania... but she needs contributions to ?pay? for it.those calling for a recount have no proof of fraud, hacking or manipulation. but they're raising questions about the big difference in electronic voting machines, and those that used optical scanners and paper ballots. here's the math: trump has 290 electoral votes. clinton has 232. michigan is still officially undecided, although trump is leading to get that state's 16 electoral votes. wisconsin has ten electoral votes. and pennsylvania has 20. so... if a recount results in

strange trip to election day. just yesterday, f.b.i. director james lifted the cloud he placed over clinton's campaign and her handling of classified emails. >> i would much rather love to hear from our next president, miss hillary clinton. >> reporter: in cleveland yesterday, she never mentioned comey's clearance the new comey letter as she appeared with n.b.a. superstar lebron james of the champion cleveland cavaliers. >> so let me ask you this: are you ready to vote? >> reporter: it was clinton's second visit to cleveland in three days. this weekend, she followed an itinerary set by polling results and the math of getting to 270 electoral votes. >> boy is this a hearty bunch standing out here in the rain. >> reporter: ...holding a soggy rally in florida saturday afternoon... ...appearing on stage with singer katy perry that night in philadelphia... >> ♪ i got the eye of the tiger, a fighter. ♪ ...and with singer james taylor last night in manchester, new hampshire. her path circled back to cleveland. the swing state of ohio is again a key battlegro

strange timing, but it is good for the hillary clinton campaign. the damage of course has been done, between the two weeks, saiden when james comey that he wanted to look at further emails in conjunction with that investigation, and now millions of votes were potentially influenced. and donald trump says that hillary clinton could not be trusted as the u.s. president. but of course, they are happy this is over. it gives them a boost going into the last two days and possibly also gets rid of the specter of an investigation hanging over, when or if she gets into the white house. the likelihood is relatively big because there is not just that number poll you just mentioned. the final polls before election day, there are those they give lead 5%, even a 6% nationally. she is also doing ok in most of the battleground states, at least 50/50 and ahead in some of the most crucial ones. like florida and north carolina and virginia on the east coast. then of course we would go further inland to ohio and other soy states like nevada are those results will come in later. -- path to the white house and other swing states like nevada are those results will come

today, stating that james comey, the fbi director, is bringing this for political reasons with no evidence. and that is a violation of the hatch act itself. >> it's also so strange because of what he announced on friday because there was more evidence that they were going to be looking over. i guess they missed the white house's statement yesterday which is that james comey is beyond reproach but you had attorneys general from both parties questioning comey's -- maybe not the decision but the way in which he communicated it. but i don't think it's necessarily the media -- the not having as big of an impact, especially at the network, the social media and online discussion and cable news having a bigger impact and in fact good news for donald trump today in north carolina where he is up plus five in a week. so now he's had a tie with her. and in wisconsin there's good news about him tightening there and also ron johnson, who was long considered to be a senator, running for re-election, that was likely to lose now by some accounts, it looks like he's moving up in the world. so you actually are going to want to watch fox news on tuesday because there's going to be

james comey. let's start with a fresh, clean slate. a new attorney general. i want to know more than anyone else that she wasn't dealing in a strange way. >> i wonder if he is trying to send a very direct message to the incoming attorney general -- >> maybe he is afraid that his own dealings are so construct that if an investigation starts he will be guilty of the same things he accused hillary clinton of. i would love an independent investigation of his interactions with argentina, india, china. he is doing great business for himself, but -- >> you're looking ahead at the rest of our show because we're going to look at business and how business will work for his family around trump administration. >> that was a fine feed forward. >> david and larry, thank you. >>> president-elect donald trump laying out his dos and undos. he mentioned trade reform and rebuilding the military, but there was a couple key promises from the campaign that were left out. we'll tell you about that. plus, five students now dead. the driver under arrest after a school bus crash. horrific. now federal investigators are on the way to the scene. >> tell your

trump has had with romney and he has been having about james mat is, retired marine commandant to be the secretary of defense. we have seen a strangeny circles, especially with conservatives as trump is putting together this team. we don't know about secretary of state, obviously. we are still find out about the pentagon and the rest of the national security team. but i would say this, donald trump has shown he's listening and wants to put together the kind of government that can function with broad-based support in washington. eric: some dire supporters and others may not be pleased with these picks. >> the key to being a successful president is being willing to lose your reelection. you have to be willing to let the polls be damned every once in a while and willing to say i'm going to do what i think is right. i'm going to take a longer view. we remember ronald reagan's first two years in office where the world looked like it was falling apart. the republicans got turned out in a landslide in the mid-terms and four years later he won the largest landslide in american politics. eric: do you think president-elect trump will be surp

james, this is quite a spread you've got here. - yes, i'm afraid she doesn't take me very seriously, paladin. - well, that will change, you're strange to her now. - to everyone. you know, i was thinking about it this morning, about n.g. smith and his little joke. see, there's a theory out here. a man that can be tricked is a fool. and there are two kinds of people they can't tolerate. cowards and fools. in a tight situation, the one would run off and leave you, and the other would make fatal mistakes. - and i showed myself to be a fool. - well, let's just say that for the moment, you've lost face. you don't fit in. - how does one go about fitting in, paladin? - well, james, i suppose i could deliver a long lecture on physical differences, the clothes you're wearing, look at this one. this is a cowboy's workbench. everything a cowboy needs for a working day is right here. tie and post for roping, high cantle to give a man support and comfort during that long, hard working day. and here's a boot for a rifle. - yes, i have got a lot to learn. - james, the truth of the matter is, that survival is very difficult out here. everything, eve

james coleman sent a letter to congress saying and we not changed our conclusions that we express in july. this after the fbi reviewed e-mails found on the can peter and anthony, strange filed last night with his reaction. >> it closes the book on what they know now. 10 days ago we didn't know someone had failed to turn over her devices. unless jeopardy is attached. this investigation is over based on what they know, but they don't know what they don't know. lauren: republican national committee chairman reince priebus say in this case is not over. >> i don't know how many blackberry she had. if they find another but very or computer, if they have other documents, they will review them and there'll be another letter back to this committee from comey same guess what, we found this. lauren: paul ryan's same regardless of this decision the undisputed finding that the fbi's investigation is that secretary clinton put our nation secret at risk and in doing so compromised our national security. as we said earlier, the new spec in a huge rally on walls three. investors interpreted the latest news as lifting uncertainty from the election outcomes in dow futures up to 38. s&p

james comey, i do think that in all of the government, he is a man of integrity and honesty. >> now, a few days later, actually a few weeks later, this is a different tone. >> it's pretty strange to put something like that out with such little information right before an election. >> this letter came out friday, kind of raising questions, but not really answering any questions. and then the fbi director had to backtrack on the letter. he said, yeah, you are right, this can be seriously misconstrued. >> it's just wrong. i think he was careless in this position of making this statement. i think he is hurt the bureau. he hurt justice. >> this was a serious error in judgment by the director. >> what do you make of this? obviously, you could point to republicans, too. >> sure. this is washington. it depends which way the wind is blowing. the stakes are very high for the country with this election. but for no one are the stakes higher than for the fbi right now. if, in fact, this goes forward and hillary clinton loses the election and it turns out there's nothing but yoga e-mails on the server or irrelevant, harmless e-mails, it's devastating for the fbi. they raise the stakes more

in response, hillary clinton i'm going to say strangely passive, at least today only two appearances or she rallies with lebron jamesw hampshire she brings in james taylor. haven't seen him since john kerry took him. she has shifted our schedule for tomorrow jamming in an appearance in michigan. that is one more space they were trump is threatening. vice presidential candidate tim kaine has arranged a last-minute appearance in virginia tomorrow. is his home state of grace? in the last-minute picture looks like this. polls show a trend to trial. he thinks it's strong enough to carry them to a win on tuesday. hillary clinton trying not to look rattled beijing than in a speech in one save michigan tomorrow appeared two days to go. the second hour of transcendent is about to begin. today's to the election full text it ahead for election day and beyond. look at where the candidates are today. hillary rallies in philadelphia and cleveland where she campaigning with lebron james. that is tonight late this afternoon in cleveland. let me show you the map for trump once again. five rallies, finds date. he starts in iowa, minn
