our wales correspondent jordan davies has been to meet one woman, who has lived with face blindness alliece of cake. but for boo james it can be a challenge. she has face blindness, a condition which means she can't recognise people's faces, friends, family, even her own reflection. i have definitely been on a bus having someone waving at me, not knowing who it was, and then later discovering that was possibly my mother through conversation and other such happenings, so even close family are not safe. but what's even more extraordinary is that boo only discovered she had the condition in her 40s. i used to explain this to myself by thinking that i actually didn't like other people. if i met them and then wiped them clean from my memory, how interested was i? so i decided i should not actually mix with people much if that was the level of interest i had with them. or possibly i was even thinking was i from another planet! it's difficult to describe how those with the condition see faces. i see the component parts of a face, i can see there's a nose, i can see there are eyes and a mouth a

republican jim jordan at mark meadows alleged:made numerous false statements, cohen's personal attorney is pushing back on that assertion. lanny davis says early on michael cohen speculated about a position in the white house but after consulting with family and friends decided he preferred to stay-at-home in new york city as personal attorney to the president. the president is tackling the cohen story on twitter tweeting michael cohen was pitching a book that would have heaped praise on the president before the fbi raided his office last april. and he committed perjury in his congressional testimony this week. what do we know about this alleged book proposal? let's go to the source, i understand is you have been reporting on this you've had a look at the book proposal. what can you tell us about what it says? >> it was universally and incredibly positive about donald trump. this was a few weeks before the fbi seized his computer but at that time he was prepared to write a book and present it to the public that was just glowing, a gush first about donald trump and editors who met with him told us he had nothing but positive things t

the open hearing on wednesday, republicans jim jordan and mark meadows made a criminal referral accusing cohen of lying to congress. cohen attorney lanny davisresponded, "mr. cohen testified truthfully before the house oversight committee. he took full responsibility for his guilty pleas prayed he also backed up much of his testimony with documents. it may not be surprising that two pro-trump committee members have a baseless criminal referral. in my opinion, it's a sad misuse of the criminal justice system with the aura of pure partisanship. the president, active on twitter today, his blessing michael cohen for a book that he is saying he was selling. basically that contradicts his health is made. the president tweeting, "i can't believe he wrote a love letter to the new book he was pushing. written and submitted long after charlottesville in helsinki, his funny reasons for going rogue. but these exact opposite of his fake testimony which now is a lie!" : is scheduled to do more talking to lawmakers after being convicted of lying to congress. harris? >> harris: mike, thank you very much.

i watched the robert jordan go up and mlk and cesar chavez, the same time everyone was looking to get rid of nelson and jefferson davis, front and center at the tower. and i agree with you, it was a lot of white students. but the fact of the matter is, 50,000 students. in the early 90s 78% of them were white. today it is a majority minority university. whites are 46% of the population at ut austin now. there was a small contingent though, of others, who were a little upset with barbara jordan for advocating citizenship cards as part of her immigration reform. they pointed out that if we have to carry citizenship cards we will be racially profiled, because they will not ask african-americans or white people if they are citizens, but dark people will always be asked to prove they belong to the u.s. the other thing was to say when i left, the whole time i was there, african-americans had never risen above 4% of the population of ut austin, never. students came to see to me when i was the associate dean, african-american students, and asked me in my office if there was a master plan to keep african-americans from going ab

jordan. and you out of the gate came out very strong on what was happening in that room. how did you think that went? >> well, i mean, understand what took place here. lanny davised this whole thing. he told our staff, he said, look, i planned this hearing. i picked this committee i had to persuade michael cohen to do and it maybe most importantly i had to persuade chairman cummings to do it. lanny davis coordinated the whole thing. the mueller report is due any time now. i think it's going to say there was not one bit of evidence any collusion or coordination between the trump campaign and russia to impact the election. so now they have got to do something else. they put all their eggs in the michael cohen basket and it blew up in heir face last week because he came in here and lied again. now they are going -- now mr. nadler sent 81 letters to 60-some different individuals. by the way i think what's important about that is, remember the two people mr. nadler didn't send a letter to. chris steele and glen simpson. glenn simpson the guy that clintons paid to put together the dossier and christopher steele the guy who wrote the dossier which was the basis for th
