>> jonathan said something that i absolutely agree with. that is the media reflects what the public wants. in my view, the media, in general, feed a voracious appetite for vengeance by an informed public. often influenced by fear, prejudice, and ignorance. i think one of the reasons criminal defense lawyers argued so poorly is people do not understand the source of crime. they want simple, quick responses to a complicated long- term solutions. you cannot fight crime by doing what the governor is doing, cutting social services and building new prisons. [applause] you do not have to be a rocket scientist to understand. all of us who have been involved in the criminal-justice system know where people who commit crimes come from. they are poor people, people of color, victims of abuse, the mentally ill, people with substance abuse problems. there are the people that fall through the cracks of society. but that is the public read what the public wants and the public is understandably afraid because this is a real problem. then there are these pe

i can't take credit to it jonathan butler beat me to it.ng up a friend of mine from south africa, from the airport. just got in the states and drove him to my house and drove up to the driveway, opened the front door, took his luggage, i was about to go up the stairs to tame -- take him to his room. a friend of mine said, jonathan, turn on the television right now. turn -- i turn on the tv and stevie mentions it. my friend from south africa, was standing, like i planned this whole thing, like i set him up. i know some people, you better watch me. and i just cracked up. he goes, my goodness. and stevie is like -- has been like -- like a mentor to me growing up in south africa. i -- i truly think he's been some, probably the only person i can tell you, like song writing. he made me realize that -- that i could write a song. you know, i wanted to be original, because this guy was doing -- that he was writing his own stuffer. in south africa it was like -- he was like burkley for me. >> every time i see you in concert, which you know, i do as o

jonathan?think you've got to be very careful about supporting silencing people's representatives in washington. charlie hit the nail on the we are still a constitutional republic. these people are our voices in washington. you might not like what they say or do. [ talking over each other ] >> we have to live with the consequences of putting those dopes in there. [ talking over each other ] >> no matter what party they are in they've been spending like drunken sailors. >> we are saying change it. we are not saying we shouldn't adhere to it. [ talking over each other ] >> would you lease let me finish? -- please let me finish. i said that should be changed. it may be a fact but change that fact so not have the right to do that. >> next, new government ads plotting the health care law hit the air as voters hit the polls. guess who's paying for them? you the tax pair. we are going to play it and you decide. >> with the new health care law, more good things are coming. hey, guys, i know i've been ba

our crew this week, jonathan, tracey, our buddy is back, hey john. also joining us radio talk show host mark levin for the entire half hour. welcome to everybody. john i've missed. we haven't seen tax taxes -- state taxes jump this high since carter was in office. >> look at 1937 you raise taxes in a recession you push the economy further in a recession this isn't about taxes. texas vs. california, perfect example. california has huge taxes, huge government, they also have huge unemployment, unfunded pension liabilities they will never meet. they are writing iou's to creditors, pasadenaing on debt, asking state employees to take -- furloughs. no state income tax. texas is running a nine billion dollar surplus, low unemployment. texas has a full rainy day fun. these states ned need to come to texas, sit at feast governor perry. >> and you will eat well, try the catfish. i recollection machine it. tracy let's talk about new jersey where you are. property taxes, jersey up 22% this modest town getting hammered. >> right, right, right john is right we nee

fih+-- jonathan spoke to it as. we have to make the á discussioa broader discussion, so that people understand how it affects their daily lives, how it affects the way government works. is there going to be money, our state parks going to be open, money for education? what does this say about the state of california, where i believe the largest union is not the teachers' association, but the correctional officers association? what does that say about a society? when people find out about that, they are stunned. but that is the reality. that is what is playing on people's minds, fear, prejudice, ignorance. >> this also points to the fact of what we have to do in each individual case. that is what you're up against. and when you are in trial, the priority is your client, which is different from broadcast journalism, television drum up. -- drama. >> but you cannot turn a blind eye to it. >> that question is deeply troubling when you look at certain cases. there are certain cases where it is a no-win situation. the robe

jonathan is right, unfunded liabilities. when you put gap adjusted measures to the unfunded likes the united states is facing right now, our balance sheet is worse than zimbabwe and greece that is how bad we are. with eisenhower his congress said open up social security. for decades politicians have not made tough choices. we've robbed from future generations. we are a conundrum now. we are going to pay china every dime we owe. one thing we are going to default on americans depending on this. 250 aside we are going to default on this >> a lot of people do depend on this money if you look at the break down of social security, 1/3 of retirees it is 90% of their income. >> and it has a 90% popularity in all the polls. i think you can't be serious about cutting government spending unless you are serious about cutting entitlement spending. this is my big beef with the tea party. when you ask them to be specific about what you would do about social security more particularly medicaid and medicare, where the real problem is, nobody

and jonathan hunt, that is a lot? than salary and bonuses and other types of benefit and compensation so you put in things like unemployment insurance and health care coverage. it is those costs to the company that go up that is included in the compensation figure. but the vast majority of that $144 billion is salary. and it is bonuses. meaning walkingers are doing as -- meaning wall streeters are doing as well or better than ever. >>reporter: pay and high pay is very hard to kill on wall street. you can mess with the structure of pay. you can change the incentives and how pay is given out but the levels are hard to reduce. than than one point, these are projections at the moment, what the 35 companies believe they willnd up paying out. they do not have, of course, the final quarter figures when we will know for sure how much they are getting paid. >>shepard: this suggests that the banks are doing well? >>jonathan: the banks are doing well except scprord circumstances. look at the revenues the last few years: $376 bil

jonathan, thank you. jonathan is also online chatting about this and other top stories at foxnews.com/shep and when you are there click on "on the hunt," and join us in the conversation. now to a major medical milestone. for the first time ever doctors have injected a patient with human embryonic stem cells. the food and drug administration giving the green light for the controversial trial taking place in atlanta. scientists say it could be the first step toward treating a wide range of diseases and conditions. everything from paralysis to alzheimer's disease. embryonic stem cell research also highly controversial. and because of that, a lot of the details here are being kept secret. critics say the work is unethical because it involved the destruction of human embryos. and now live from atlanta. what do we know of the patient at the center of this? >>reporter: there is, that is a detail this is kept secret, the identity of that patient. however, we do know this patient suffers from partial paralysis as

. >> let's talk, jonathan, about the promise and some of the things you have written in the past. i was referencing that in bob woodward's reporting donilon was opposed by robert gates but we should point out the defense secretary has said something very different in more recent months and, in fact, today. so this was his reaction today. >> i have thoroughly enjoyed working with general jones, and i have and have had a very productive and very good working relationship with tom donilon, contrary to what you may have read. >> so we put that out there, but one fact is that i do know that general jones had some leanings towards james cartwright, the vice chairman of the joint chiefs, to replace him, but donilon is clearly the man and this is a very tight circle. >> and jonathan knows this as well. part of the pageantry of washington is to look at an event like this and you see the pleasantries being exchanged, but behind that is the brutal reality of what goes on inside washington. the fact is jim jones had a rocky tenure and he had some big disagreements and there was a lot of leaks

. >> lehrer: and jeffrey brown talks to author jonathan franzen about his new novel, "freedom." that's all ahead on tonight's newshour. major funding for the pbs newshour has been provided by: this program was made possible by the corporation for public broadcasting. and by contributions to your pbs station from viewers like you. thank you. >> lehrer: those trapped miners in chile are coming to the surface after 69 days. rescuers began the operation late today with a custom-made capsule traveling roughly half a mile down a steel-lined tube to collect the first man. it's expected to take about 48 hours to get all of them out. we'll have more from the mine later in the program tonight but first the other news of the day. here's hari sreenivasan in our news room. >> sreenivasan: a federal judge in southern california ordered the u.s. military today to stop enforcing its ban on openly gay troops. u.s. district judge virginia phillips issued a worldwide injunction against the policy known as "don't ask, don't tell." she had already declared the ban unconstitutional. the justice depar

galena espinoza jonathan capehart, msnbc political analyst pat buchanan and from the foundation for a smoke free america, patrick reynolds. >>> good wednesday morning, i'm chris jansing. this is jansing and company and don't you just love politics. she calls him a marxist and she calls him an extremist and that wasn't the most contentious part of the debate. christine o'donnell and chris coons they did talk issues between insalts. coons is up double digits in the latest polls but this played like street fighters at times in a race to the finish. >> i would argue that there are more people who support my catholic faith than his marxist beliefs. and i'm using his own words. >> i am not now nor have i ever been anything but a clean shaven capitalest. >> joining me now, jonathan capehart and pat buchanan. it's fascinating, actually, reading some of the reviews of this. the "atlanti"atlantic" said o'd did not seem uncomfortable for one second. and then "washington post" jonathan, you always have to put a damper on things said, she thinks she can say things she doesn't really know as long a

jonathan, welcome. is it correct that the first step here is to send pair a medics down the shaft to help the miners? and has that happened yet? >> no, i'm looking right now at the hole where the miners will be rescued from. it's about 50 meters away from me. there's quite a flurry of activity. bulldozers, two dozen helmeted men trying to get everything together. the first rescuer will be heading down there probably within the hour. >> brown: once they go down, what happens? how soon after is the expectation? well, what is the expectation right now about when miners would start coming up? >> it's been changing all day long. it would be a bit difficult to estimate. the schedule seems to change every time a drill bit breaks. i know that as recently as half an hour ago i saw the men fiddling trying to put together the last pieces on this capsule that will bring them up. i think it would be safe to say sometime in the next two or three hours this capsule will be going down and then coming up with a miner in

can you hear me quick, i am sorry, jonathan. ?- can you hear me >> i am sorry jonathan, i did not hear you. >> what are you hearing about the explosions? >> there has been an effort to mar the celebrations or disrupt them entirely. earlier today there were loud explosions. i heard one of them myself. reports we are receiving at this time is that there were two explosions outside the federal courts building here in abu jujah. we heard at some point that at least three people had been seriously injured. this comes in the light of some threats that were issued earlier today by one group known as the movement for the emancipation -- is one of the militant groups that operate in the oil- producing region of the country. they want deeper lire today to keep away from the earlier independent route because they had planned to bomb -- the had planted bombs around the independence square, i round eagle square with the main ceremony was taking place. we are still waiting for detail on this, but we know right now there were two explosions. the

these concepts are the subject of a presentation that jonathan will go through with you. they will be used to inform the stakeholder outreach process that will help shape for design and development of the terminal expansion. key project areas stakeholders that we will be consulting with early in this process starting a little later this week include tenants with long-term these older chips within the project areas such as equity office properties, tenants with shorter term lease interest, releases such as the ferry building tenants, and d port's agriculture building tenants. regulatory agencies. bcdc -- agencies like bcdc. that is kind of where we are at this point. stakeholder out beach is about to begin with initial interviews later this week. the process will take a few months. i would like to go through the planning process that will inform that process. >> my name is jonathan stern. we are excited to be working with weta staff. they could not attend because they are transitioning from what started out as a very small agency to one that in the year were to will be ope

>>jonathan: not at all. they said if south korea took part in the exercise, they would see it as a declaration of war. so the aggressive language we are used to from the north korean leader kim chong-il is what we have to wait to see if he says anything else and, more importantly, if he does anything else. and we do not know what that will be as an expert i spoke to earlier today. listen. >> a problem with dictators like kim chong-il is they perceive weakness at home they engage in acts abroad and strike out at mains or -- neighbors or the united states because it brings their generals closer to them. so that could lead to a provocative act of war against south korea or the u.s. >>jonathan: this is more complicated by the elevation of kim chong-il's son, kim the younger, to the two powerful positions when the party and military and that could play into how they react. >>shepard: thank you, jonathan. and he is chatting about this story and the big story, the rescue at the mine and family members are coming up

>>jonathan: as always. >>shepard: chatting already? >>jonathan: a lot about gitmo, basically, and the possible exclusion of the witness. and a lot of people on here as you might expect saying, look, these are non-uniformed combatants and torture should be allowed to keep america safe. but the flip side of that argument, we don't do it that is what makes us different to those who are attacking us is and is what makes us better. >>shepard: yes, the matter of the constitution. you want it when it is convenient and you don't when it is not but an appellate court will have to decide. have your feelings with jonathan, foxnews.com/shep and join in the conversation. the guy would police credit with saving a kidnapped eight-year-old was beyond fear theying of his performance live in studio b and u.s. forces have been fighting in afghanistan for nine long and bloody years but with the death toll rising, there is word the enemy is trying to negotiate a deal? really? stay tuned. >>shepard: and bottom of the hour and time for the top of the news, t

and jonathan hunt, what are we going to see on friday?e who has used the mail network the last few years will have seen armed cops and, in some cases, the national guard patrolling those kind of areas such as penn station in new york city. what you will see on friday in some of those areas including penn station is a much, much more visible presence of police and national guardsman and women and more harmed than normally. they will be carrying rifles and putting on in the words of one official "a very, very visible show of force." >>shepard: jonathan, isn't it impossible to secure the rail network? it is impossible, they are just trying to put on a bigger show. than it is impossible to 100 percent secure the rail network. in penn station there are so many entrances, no security procedures at any of those entrances, and anybody can walk on to one of the amtrak trains. so, keeping us safe, if the terrorists want to get in there, all you can do if the terrorists gets into the trains is react but i spoke to a former c.i.a. operative and well-

as jonathan pointed out, you awarded this subject to a planning process. that was expected to take six months to eight months. the study actually took 18 months. and vigorous meetings, a lot of work on both parts of staff, and through various extensions of time requests, we made a lot of studies, models, and today we will be showing that to do. we recognize that any time that you build a project in san francisco, you will get a great diversity of opinions. you cannot build in this city without vigorous debate. sometimes the opinions are divergent, in fact, contradictory. these are terms that have been used to describe now successful projects such as the embarcadero, the ferry building. we enjoyed this vigorous debate about what is best for the neighbors, the city, which is greater benefit. we fully appreciate and respect that many of our neighbors have legitimate concerns to preserve their standard of living, quality of life, amenities, and even their views. at the same time, we appreciate the port must execute its fiduciary duties under the city charter a
