now mel's if you know anything about the movie "american graffiti." chain has been around since the '50s. >> i have been going to mel's sense they reopened in '88 so like 25 years. i love the place. >> reporter: the chain has been around since the '40s. they are talking about putting in a four-story building with a new mel's on bottom. some believe stuffing more people into apartments and condos could ruin the quality of life. others like mar see it as a good way to allow all kinds of people to live in the city. >> people want to make sure that we maintain the character unique character of neighborhoods and we don't turn our streets like geary into strip malls. but i think there's a balance where we are need to build housing and look at sites like that. >> reporter: things don't move real quickly in the city of san francisco. we're talking about changes here in 2018 if they come at all. kenny, they're talking about modern income? what's a modern income in san francisco? $80,000. that's the moderate income for a moderate income home. >> it would be a c

mel, i want to go to you. sterling's lawyer reportedly wants three months, not one week, to respond here. do you think that could be a tactic to stall because a legal team could seek an injunction? >> your instincts are exactly right. that is kind of his main recourse, to try to delay this. because the longer this draws on, the kind of calm down the public outcry and the momentum for the nba comes. but i actually think what you're going to see is you're going to see adam silver deny the request to give him three months. they want this resolved before the 2014/2015 season. he's going to push him to respond. i bet you, i would not be sush priced if we see him file a claim against the nba for breach of contract seeking an injection against these proceedings. i don't think it will be successful. again, it will be a delay tactic. sterli sterling's clearly on the fence here. >> someone else who's on the fence a little bit is his wife. of course, the league is making it clear if sterling is forced to sell, his estran

. >> so tell me mel's story. >> mel was not feeling well, so he went to his primary physician in thet his bladder area was hurting really bad and that he was passing blood in his urine and she told us both three times, she said, blood in your urine is nothing to be concerned about. >> so then you went to another hospital? >> then we went to the northern arizona prescott va hospital and mel was diagnosed on october 17th, 2011. >> a different va hospital diagnosed him. >> so the problem was with the va hospital in phoenix? >> yes, it was. then we realized he had the bladder cancer, but we decided we would go to the clinic and see whether or not if the va would outsource his operation. met a doctor this who was willing and able to do the surgery. he said, mel, we're very sick, but we can fix you. it took the va in phoenix seven months to approve that outsourcing to get that surgery. >> after seven months, he goes to the mayo clinic to have that surgery and was it too late? >> yes, it was. he said, i'm sorry, the cancer spread to the lymphnodes. >> reporter: tony row served his country a

mel, start with you. so magic johnson says he'll never attend a clippers game, unless donald sterling is no longer the own but like he did, he kind of like, gave a charming little giggle when asked if he wanted to buy the clippers and will sit down with anderson cooper tonight. so i'm thinking, he probably does want to buy the clippers. >> well, there's no doubt that, i'm sure he and his partner, the guggenheim group will look at it and make a bid. it's too soon to tell. magic's a smart guy, unlike donald sterling, and you won't see him say anything about it. if you really look at what donald sterling is saying, in the interview he was saying he spoke to magic johnson and claiming magic told him he ho help him through this controversy. what you saw happen is just sterling unravelled as he was kind of pontificating and going off on a tangent like, why do people love magic? why don't they love me? it's almost as if he doesn't have a clue what's going on outside of the house that he lives in. he doesn't have

cnn commentator and defense attorney mel robbins. two girls on the set.t justification. well, they do it in paris. you know. >> i'm sorry. >> they did that in paris too. can someone of his ilk now who's almost been reduced to a comic book character, can he be a source of actual slander? >> basically what you're asking is does magic johnson have a case against sterling for slander. well, it depends. it depends on whether or not there's been any magic done to magic johnson. sterling, as said on "any day" yesterday should change his name to dock because his loony tunes at this point. i think, if anything, this has made magic johnson's ship rise and more magic. the way he's responded to this. the fact he says he feels sad and he's going to pray. if anything, it's raised the stakes of magic johnson. so there hasn't been any damage. >> ironically, i think mr. sterling may have just done wonders, you know, for how wrong adultery is. while trying to suggest it's okay because they do it in paris. you may have just shown the rest of america, ooh, if donald sterling

you know, mel, i will say maybe this is not entirely a prank.ething. but certainly this is someone who is unarmed. we do not believe he was looking to hurt anyone. does the shooter still have a case? >> of course. in fact, i think the shooter should be acquitted because the bottom line is that bothers me about this entire story is that because it's a kid, and because they're call it a prank to enter somebody's property, break the law, basically you're putting the burden on the homeowner who is supposed to somehow know what somebody who is breaking the law in their house, whether or not they're armed, whether or not they intend to just pull a prank, whether or not they're going to harm his wife, his 10-month-old. keep in mind he had been burglarized twice in the last week. i think it is crazy that we're trying to say that a homeowner is the one that has the burden to act reasonably when there is a fricking crime happening in his house. >> but you're with the prosecution on this case. you very much disagree. >> oh, absolutely. we're talking about

so mel, it's a mental health professional calling the police. doesn't that give them probable cause for a warrant? >> no. >> shouldn't it be automatic? >> no. this is the problem. you watch that heartbreaking father saying what everybody in the wake of these senseless mass shootings says, why is nothing done. i'm going to tell you what the problem is. the problem is in 23 states, there is a legal definition for when you can commit somebody. they have to be an imminent danger that they're going to harm themselves or harm somebody else. when you take a cunning psychopath like this kid who's got major plans and can snap in and out of his rage, he has spent a lifetime, it sounds like, conning the adults as he's building up his rage. and unless, unless the police see or unless somebody else, a mental health care professional sees he's an immediate threat to himself, he can't do anything. and that's the problem. >> so i want to shift the focus a little bit on to that father. it breaks my heart every time i see him speak. he said something very articul

debbie allen's husband mel was a vietnam patient there. >> when mel needed the v.a. and needed his country to help him in his time of need, they turn their back on him? >> a house committee meets today to consider issuing a subpoena for more information from the phoenix hospital. at least five other hospitals across the country are under fire. for how they treat millions of veterans each year. the nation's largest veterans group, the american legion, wants shinseki to step down. >> if this was private sector, you'd be fired. if this was military, you'd be relieved of duty, and he's done neither. >> shinseki has placed several officials linked to the phoenix medical center on administrative leave. now at a veterans clinic in colorado, investigators say they found workers who were found to have falsified records showing veterans were going to get their appointments near the day. establish a committee to address the attack on the u.s. consul land in benghazi libya, specifically the obama administration's response to the attack. four americans including chris stevens wer

are we preordained, mel, for this to get harder? >> part of what we're dealing with and i'm sure sandra will agree, when they look at most studies of households 70% are dual-earner households. and until women start to demand the work to maintain a home is shared among everybody that lives in it, we are going to constantly be behind the eight ball in both finding times for ourselves and also feeling, i guess, energized enough to take on more in the areas of our life outside the home. sandra, what do you think? >> i totally agree with that. and i think that there's something of taking on all the problems of the world that women do today. i think, for example, we always get the statistics, man, if kids don't get a home cooked meal every night together around the table, they will be obese and have diabetes ii and it's up to the moms to do it. and that's sort of another level of pressure on us that we feel, oh, my gosh, that there's somehow the blame that always comes to the mom. we always have the new book, the tiger mom book or french

and here next to me on the hot seat is mel robbins. so mel, you're in the hot seat. you heard the apology from donald sterling. he says he's not a racist. >> i almost spit on you i was laughing so hard. his wife says he has dementia. >> possibly. >> come on. the finney thing, he walked out of the studio and i had a chance to talk to him. i said to him, anderson, i guarantee you when you walk into work tomorrow there is going to be a bouquet of flowers from adam silver. all he has to do is hit play on that thing and do an up and down vote. >> let's look at more. he did call anderson a racist. watch. >> i think you have more of a plantation mentality than i do. you know what? i think you're more of a racist than i am. i'm not a racist. and i've never been a racist or will have be a racist. you're asking me about questions. what do you mean a mentality? >> a plantation mentality is to feel you own these guys. they're working for you. >> do i own them? >> i don't know. >> my players earn $100 million a year. now do i own them? >> also says 25%, cedric, of my whole gang a

it's a betrayal to somebody who was willing to serve his country, and then when mel needed the v.a.nd needed his country to help him in his time of need, they turned their back on him. >> reporter: secretary of veteran affairs eric shinseki told us when he first heard the charges in phoenix, he sent inspectors immediately. >> i take every one of these incidents and allegations seriously, and we are going to go and investigate. the most serious of these were in phoenix. >> reporter: but the phoenix investigation is not the only one. at least five other v.a. hospitals have been accused of mismanagement and preventable deaths, and at two of those, v.a. officials in charge got large bonus checks just after the deaths were revealed. daniel dellinger is the national commander of the american legion, which called this week for eric shinseki to resign. >> if this is private sector, you would be fired. if it was military you would be relieved of duty and he's done neither. >> reporter: the secretary told us disciplinary action is pending in pittsburgh and atlanta but the specifics are not ye

defense attorney and hln legal analyst joey jackson and cnn commentator mel robbins. first to you, none of this is good news. as if there has been any along the way for steriling. >> it's good news for us because it's a fantastic story that just keeping getting better. what do they say, it's not the crime, it's the cover up. ironically, it's actually the behavior that happened after the tapes were released that almost are going to sink 'em even further than the tape itself. >> great point. joey, we heard dallas mavericks owner mark cuban say, hey, look, this is a slippery slope. if you start indicting people, and i'm using the term indicting within the nba, not within the criminal -- he's no criminal, let's be clear. if you start, you know, taking to task and taking teams away from people who have private conversations with their lovers or their wives or their children, whomever else, then he went and sat down very publicly on the tv with cnn's anderson cooper. and that matters. he said some very, very bad things. >> it matters in a number of ways. first, it takes awa

in boston, we're also joined by lawyer and cnn commentator mel robbins. don't think i was expecting $35 million, but give me the reality behind this. >> were you expecting more? >> uh-huh. >> this is the maximum fine they can face for a civil penalty. this is not the criminal investigation that is still going on from the doj. this is a civil fine. 13 deaths tied to this ignition switch problem. it can turn off when you go over a bump or your knee hits it, the air bags, power steering, all that. very dangerous. the general issue, general motors knew about this, they didn't tell people. >> what did the feds say? >> some very harsh word coming from nhtsa which oversees the safety of drivers. listen. >> what we cannot tolerate, what we will never accept, is a person or a company that knows danger exists and says nothing. literally silence can kill. >> this is the highest fine we've ever seen from nhtsa. that agency was also up on capitol hill answering tough questions from congress with people saying, congressmen, you should have ordered a recall earlier. but

i would say, mel, it's not so much russia, ukraine or the jobs number. i think it's more technicals. we've gotten up to this 1883, 1885 range several times and retraced. so that's what i'm looking. i thought this number might be enough to p usual p through, but if we get through that, we get momentum. it for the i think we're looking for a pullback in the mid 1800s. >> basically stay the same. >> but also day how about that dip underneath 13? i actually look at this buy when you can, not when you have to. this is a great example. to murph's point, we've had a hard time getting through, i think at some point in time we bust up through there. when that happens, i'm not sure which time, but if you've got protection, you can hold on to these stocks if we get that lift. we're seeing breakouts. look as exxon mobil, look at the way some of these major -- mcdonald's another great example, so we're seeing that move to the up side. i still like the big caps, but i think you have to be very, very selective within both sides. >> santelli, your take on the markets? >

he joins me alongside cnn legal analyst mel robbins., drew, what is the latest development in this ever evolving storing of problems? >> quite frankly, we're getting more whistleblowers coming forward than we can check out at the time. they're coming from all other the country. we have either whistleblowers coming forward or an inspector general investigators now in ten different states across the country looking into very similar allegations, as we have in phoenix, that there are hidden lists, that there are wait times where the numbers are being fudged and where this delayed care issue has led to either deaths or adverse medical outcomes, as the v.a. likes to call them. so the wait list scandal itself is growing in scope. and now you have this political somewhat scandal growing that the president certainly knew about it. "the washington post" reporting that the obama administration was actually briefed about this issue in 2008 during the transition and only now is addressing the situation. >> just quickly, drew, for those who missed y

mel watt, finally come out and started to talk. think of him and fannie and freddie? >> mel watt, liked him in "star wars." absolute love him at fhfa. he is fantastic. he came out. went into hiding for a long time. then he popped up. first thing he said, hey, we don't have any money. could you keep taking it all away. that is probably not a good thing. we like that. then he comes around and says i will make it easier on warrants like brian described so more lending can get done. we're fans. we're watt fans. >> he needs to go spend vacation time in the bahama a mass with charlie wrangle and anything else. >> we're good to go. liz: give him for at least assessing the situation. should fannie and freddie, you guys stay as government sponsored entities? >> they should but got to take them out of conservatorship. they should have taken them out of conservatorship a year ago. >> yeah. >> they took the biggest bailout in the history of the world. we all know that people are spreading that information. what is not talked about they paid th

i want to start with you, mel. you explain this lawsuit and how it fits into the wider legal drama that's facing the nfl? >> well, i'm not going to comment on the wider legal drama. there's an independent concussion lawsuit pending in another court, but this one centers on the drug culture in the nfl that's been fostered by the nfl for many, many years and many decades. >> i mean, specifically you're essentially alleging in this lawsuit or several players are alleging that they would have an injury that this injury would be masked by the dispensing of drugs so that they don't know even how these were obtained and they were sent back to the field and then later discovered that they had these injuries that maybe had healed over time. what kind of drugs specifically are we talking about? >> first of all, what you just stated is true. that's common place in the nfl. there's many times when the trainers, the doctors would tell the player it's a sprain, and they'll continue to play on it for many, many weeks only to disc

. >> "outfront" cnn legal analyst paul callan and mel robbins and dr. guardier. you just saw that video. this is a young man, his mother saw some of his disturbing videos this spring in april, end of april, just a month ago, called police. they went to his apartment. he convinced them it was a misunderstanding. is this something is that could have been prevented, or are these things that some people do, and most of the time they don't turn into anything? >> well, first of all, the cops did not. and i'm not pointing fingers. but they didn't connect the dots, that there were previous contacts with the police officers. so if in fact they had known about the two previous con techs when they went do to do the welfare check, then they would have put it all together and said wait a minute, there is something not right here. secondly, what we see in many states, there are not laws that state that you have to have a mental health expert go along with law enforcement to do this check. so here is a situation where you had law enforcement who really were not experts in any w

what does the difference make in this regard, mel? >> well, the difference is, is really important here, chris. it's everything, in fact. and basically he signed up to be part of a private association and he agreed to their rules. and there's also an arbitration clause basically says, yeah, you can sue but you've also agreed to tell the judge to kick it back to us. >> so the rules of evidence about illegally obtained things, kavonoky, do they apply in the same way as a criminal trial, for instance? >> no, in a word, no, they don't. and there's even other arguments because everything in the constitution and by it is laws in the nba relates to the state laws of new york, which is only a one-party recording state. so there's a good argument to be made that even though this happened in california if we're applying new york law it's a totally different ball game. ultimately i think he's going to lose on that. >> so, mel, you were sleeping on kavinoky as just another pretty face and then whipped out the new york law. >> wow. wow! >> you wer

what mel watts said was we'll put in place a list of processes. if you follow these rules we're not going to ask you to buy them back. the banks need to feel comfortable, and one of the things that they're now going to allow if a loan that has been sold to fannie and freddie has two delinquents within the first six months they won't ask for that possible bought back by the bank where in the past they have. >> i imagine the banks love that. >> they do. i think they should. it's allowing some leeway, recognizing that the pendulum had swung too far back in the other direction, and giving the bank some protection for those buy backs. >> now we mentioned this is something of a reversal for the administration. how does this--how is this different from watts' bread sezzer, and does it show much of a shift to. >> fannie and freddie are buying two out of three loans originated in today's market. it is a huge impact but he's emphasizing the things already in place. the 43% requirement, the debt to income. if you're a homeowner typically the line is if your

how much power does mel watt have to lower the fees further for fee reduction.er of fhfa director? one of the things he could have done and something we would have supported would have been to lower the loan limits for the private sector. he has chosen not to do that. we have encouraged it so that the private market can do that. over 90% of the mortgages in this country are under written by the taxpayers. if tomorrow morning mel watt decided that there will be principle reduction on mortgages and there isn't anything he can do no stop it? >> as conserve ter and regulator he has certain latitude. i do know he has the ability to do things with the gp's and the loan limits and obviously i think the entities have been doing principle write-downs with the settlements. >> lis ep, we are pretty much out of time. i want you to answer yes or no to the following questions. is it now an entitlement owning a house predicated on political ties? >> we have nationalized the housing market. when you can control financing you control the flow of housing in this country. thank yo
