make it but joining you from our new york studio to talk about what did and if this matters is john breaux co-founder of the commodity customer coalition he's been fighting on behalf of the global customers since his firm collapse so thanks for being on the show thank you for having me yeah ok so the full report is out i'm sure you've read it i know you've spoken with members of congress over time that have been working on this you've also been fighting on behalf of customers so is there anything groundbreaking in this report. there's nothing groundbreaking it is a nice concise timeline of events with footnoted information sort of that puts everything together in one place the case against corazon himself the facts about the firm why it failed what happened and when it happened ok so great news for someone who someday wants to write the book on what happened they need a good timeline but for people like yourself and james could do less now why no have been finding this damning evidence and a least i know for james i don't speak for you there has been some some hope for a criminal case does
