so to have latisha james say this is disappointing. to at least think more vigorously about how we not only reform the police, but begin to look at more structural issues that will put the police at a decided disadvantage when it comes to leveraging their public presence against black bodies on the streets of our cities. >> let's talk about elijah mcclain. they say the aurora police officers in colorado had no justified reason to stop and frisk him. it is compounding the anger of what happened in this particular case. >> that is right, a 150,000 page report that documented what we already observed with film and new recordings, the fact is they had to right to stop him. he was a precious soul. one of his coworkers said it was like a gold orb surrounded him. he played violin. he was a sweet, wonderful human being. walking home with a full mask on because he suffered from anemia and he was cold. he begged them repeatedly for them to observe respect of his body. he says i know you're not bad, he engaged in what we have determined the polit

on the matter in the coming weeks or months >>> and amazon is suing new york attorney general latisha jamesn over its early covid-19 response. james calls amazon'ssuit a, quote, sad attempt to shift attention away from what she describes as unsafe working conditions carl, back over to you >> interesting wrinkle there, courtney thank you very much. >>> jon, i was just thinking the contentious relationship between amazon after new york city didn't work out and now the state ag, just looking at the shares, it's curious they've had a lot thrown their way in the past, say, six months, but has moved in a flat line since about labor day or so >> it has and this is amazon not appearing to back down here, kind of taking on latisha james and the new york political establishment directly we'll see how it works out, carl interesting aggressive stance from amazon. >> yeah. >>> we are getting breaking news, remarks from the treasury secretary. steve liesman has it >>> good morning, carl treasury secretary janet yellen in his first meeting with the g7 striking a very different tone from the prior administ

you have attorney general latisha james pursuing the investigation and you have democrats in the stateolding governor andrew cuomo's feet to the fire. this is accountability that we haven't seen on the national level in 4 years. cuomo will have to do with this. polling shows 2 to 1 edge over potential opponents even the ones closest to him but that may change. he's going to have to explain what happened and why. mike: chris, where does this cuomo nursing home scandal go? chris: i'm glad that the democrats seemed to have caught up to this. fox's janice dean, the federalist daily caller, fox news has been talking about the covid deaths and andrew cuomo's order for years while he was given emmys and called potentially the next president of the united states and people start today wonder if he should replace joe biden. the entire time he was lying. he talked to his brother for hard-hitting interviews and blamed donald trump for this happening. accountability, sure, but it's a little late especially after so many people like janice have been smeared for the last year for pointing out the fa

been undercounted by as much as 50% according to fellow democrat and new york attorney general latisha jamesfected nursing home residents taken to hospitals where they died were omitted from the data. an interesting decision for an administration under fire for months. so governor cuomo who has declined to appear on this show despite dozens of requests over the past year, including this past week, made a bad decision that may have cost lives. and then his administration hid that data from the public. cuomo issued an executive order changing the advisory on may 10th requiring patients to test negative before returning to their nursing homes, but that was obviously too late for those infected. last august new york legislators pressed cuomo for more information, and that's where this latest private admission, this latest development in the scandal from his secretary melissa de rosa comes in. she says right around the same time, president trump turns this into a giant political football. he starts tweeting that we killed everyone in nursing homes. he directs the department of justice to do an in

the attorney general latisha james is considering request to launch an independent probe of the claims that lindsey boling, one of the former advisers to governor cuomo that he kissed her on the lips and said let's play strip poker and requested prosecutor, the aq is thinking about it. meanwhile yesterday fox news at the white house press, press secretary jen psaki on whether or not mr. cuomo is still the gold standard as we've heard in the past. watch this. >> andrew cuomo is being accused of sexual harassment by a former staffer. is the white house worried about this becoming a distraction. >> when a person comes forward, they deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. >> will the president talk to him about these accusations from democrats and the new york legislature that cuomo misled the public about deaths in nursing homes. >> this is a meeting and a conversation of range of governors about how we can all work together to address the pandemic and get relief to the american people. >> there are democrats in new york who want congressional hearings about these deaths. >> it's

in a recent report state attorney general latisha james allege that new york under counted by 50%.ber? was she counted? >> losing a loved one in a nursing home during this situation was extraordinarily painful. >> reporter: new york governor andrew cuomo and the state department of health have been heavily criticized for directing nursing homes in march to take in coronavirus patients to relieve stress on hospitals. although the directive was amended in may, the governor defended monday. >> residents who were leaving the hospitals were not likely to be contagious. they were going to be what's called cohorted. cared for in areas that are separate. >> reporter: but when we looked into nursing home deaths in august, we found that may not always have been the case. we spoke to a former employee at our lady of consolation where sullivan's mother died. the former employee who asked to remain anonymous told us in march and april, the facility took in covid-positive patients from hospitals and that healthy residents were put in rooms with those patients who were infected. >> covid did not

by the way, we only found out how many people died because of latisha james, because of attorney generalth that report that estimated the deaths of us innerring home residents was 50% higher and that number continues to grow. it jumped this week to over 15,000 when you factor in assisted living and adult care facilities. but again, this is all about politics and preserving political power. it's about donald trump quite frankly. they were worried about trump making it a political issue. they never gave a damn about those who were killed. they never gave a damn about the families. don't forget this man, andy cuomo, wrote a book on leadership and accepted an emmy for his performance while tap dancing on the graves of those killed by his incompetence. maria: wow. liz peek? liz: yeah, i think that dagen has said it pretty well but the most shocking thing to me in what this secretary revealed to her fellow democrats is, first of all, she pinned the blame on donald trump and said that it was all his fault for making this a political issue which, of course, cuomo had done months earlier. the oth

the lawsuit filed by new york attorney general latisha james accusing the retailer of not doing enoughhas warehouses in queens and staten island. james is claiming the company did not institute cleaning procedures and failed to adjust productivity goals to account for safety among other alleged violations. the company says this lawsuit does not paint an accurate picture of amazon's industry-leading response to the pandemic. let's take a look at the stock in the premarket this morning, right now it is fractionally lower. well, bitcoin continues its record-breaking streak. the cryptocurrency topping $50,000 for the first time yesterday, in large part due to broader acceptance from major financial institutions and businesses. in less than two months bitcoin's value has doubled. now it's above 51,000 today. well, former president donald trump slamming senate minority leader mitch mcconnell in a new statement, saying mitch is a culen and unsmiling political hack and if republican senators are going of to stay with him they will not win again. mcconnell voted to acquit the former president b

we also heard from another democrat, janice, we heard from the attorney general, latisha james, about, the cuomo numbers were about half what they really were. the administration had said it was something like 8,000, when in reality it was closer to 13,000. and that's when the governor famously sounded so cold with this sound bite. >> if you think there was a mistake, then go talk to the federal government. it's not about pointing fingers or blame, it's that this became a political football. the report also said information from nursing homes is often incorrect. doesn't mean people didn't die. it doesn't mean people won't die today. that is the curse of covid. why covid? why did god do this? i don't know. but who cares? 33, 28 died in the hospital, died in the nursing home, they died. >> for him to say that, janice, and -- this was initially a story that was leaked to the new york post, new york post has got this story. fox news is doing the story. i did a google search, i don't see it anywhere on the new york times website right now. unless people cover this story in the press, where

now i think it's been brought out into the open and i think that and part of it has been latisha jamesew york has -- she had a scathing report on hiding facts. jillian: absolutely. you columbus had melissa wefroze because we weren't sure what we give to the department of justice and what we give to you guys and what we start saying was going to be used against us and we weren't sure if there was going to be an investigation. ted, how does that make you feel? >> very disturbing. you know, when you are trying to cover your own stuff by not getting investigated, and you are talking about lives at the same time, it should not be that way. lives should be number one. never mind about the political how good you look. you know. you pat yourself on the back and tell everyone how good you are doing at the same time you are lying about the lives that are being lost. it's just -- it's terrible. absolutely terrible. jillian: cindy, i know before covid one of you would take your mother to the chapel every night to pray. you would tuck her into bed. i'm curious for some of your memories of your moth
