like the jussie smollett case in chicago.acism -- people have problems, they are always going to have problems. people are people and they will be that way until the end of time. but check up on the sow's -- so-called racist incidents making the news all over the place and you will find that the vast majority of them will be hoaxes. i cannot think of a single one that was the hoax, although there are probably one or two of not remembering. i don't know the number. david, we believe it there. this from my low -- -- milo host: and a tweet from presidential candidate, former vice presidential candidate joe biden, also reacting to a donald trump tweeted yesterday -- host: by the way, the 20 candidates will be on the stage this tuesday and wednesday for the cnn debates. get a chance to see it this weekend with cnn giving c-span permission to air the debates from detroit later this week. we will have schedule information on that, but you can watch that tuesday and wednesday evening, 9 p.m. eastern time, with reaction the next day h

with jussie smollett, that's how the police tracked down what happened. >> there's doorbell cameras,ca, usually upscale small towns that are connected directly to the police department. anybody in the police department that knows how to access it can get a view of what's happening in front of your front door. can they get a view of what's happening on the inside? we don't know the answer to that yet. the other type of doorbell cameras, it's you and your service provider, can police get a copy of that? most courts say they need a warrant for that. some service providers give it to the cops when they ask for it. where is privacy? >> dagen: i don't think young people understand what they're putting at risk until it bites them in the you know what. >> if you read 1984, orwell's novel, is beyond what he predicted. he wrote it in the 1940s. he predicted a lot of things. the doorbell camera is terrifying. dagen: i agree. >> can we talk about something happiehappy onehappier one of t. dagen: we'll talk about j-lo's dress. you can get versace sneakers with that pattern. we'll have that story

when we look at what's going on and all of these cases, whether it is jussie smollett and that type of the way back to o.j. simpson, all of these things that we can see throughout really prominent cases, this is why criminal justice reform historically and especially to black america, has been something that has been so completely frustrating to people who are involved in criminal justice. now this isn't 100% of the time. most prosecutors do their jobs very well, but i think these cases -- >> before we say this is a story about a deaf buying political influence, i think we have to ask alex acosta is a republican u.s. attorney down there. the fact that epstein gave lots of monies to democrats would be a reason for him to go easy? >> but unfortunately, republicans on the state and federal level are the worst when it comes to criminal justice reform. when it comes to prosecutions. i mean, i saw that. >> that's a generalization. speak out it is, but this is why we have to loo look at this. >> he gives a lot of money to democrats, and therefore you think alex acosta give him a break? >> not
