jonathan o'connell and ann weismann, thank you for joining me. ahead, the latest results on this election night.

>>is laura: i anytime --met jerry o'connell.e's a nice guy. >> it is like trying to get men to watch hallmark. >> laura: on lifetime tv, there is always a woman pushing a man down the stairs or vice versa. someone is always getting pushed down the stairs. >> and men aren't watching that either. >> laura: real men don't watch bravo. >> remember earlier this summer, we talked about chris hardwick, the host of amc's "talking dead." he was removed from that show and his other talk show pulled from the schedule because of abuse allegations made against him by a former girlfriend. amc did a thorough review, this week, they returned him from metaphorical dead to host "talking dead," and was an emotional return..ad watch this. >> i want to thank you, the "walking dead" community, for all the support to these last couple months for the show was not just a job to me, this is a vital part of my life, you know, and this has been a sanctuary these last seven years we've been here, this has been with me through good times and bad times and i

>> jerry o'connell, the film star, is a fan of bravo programming. >> laura: does he have a show on bravo he will. it's called "real men watch bravo," except there was a huge reaction to that. they said the title is misogynistic, homophobic, i don't quite understand how it's homophobic but nonetheless, jerry o'connell and the producers of the show decided we are changing the title and jerry came out to explain why. >> we change the title of the show, it's no longer the after mentioned titles, it is now called "bravo's play-by-play" and it's basically a panel of three of us and we sort of break down everything that happened that week on bravo. it is sort of like a "sportscenter" for bravo highlights. >> bravo, it saved my marriage with my wife. it's our passion. it's what we talked about. >> i have news for jerry. then, real or otherwise, are not going to watch the "shahs of sunset" if there is a ball being thrown -- >> laura: that's misogynistic. >> men like some programming, women like other. >> laura: i like jerry o'connell. >> it is like trying to get men to watch hallmark. >> laura: l

richard. >> thank you so much, kelly o'connell with the latest on that breaking. let's bring in the white house correspondent for the washington examiner. around josh barrett, an msnbc contributor. josh, why now? why the change and what does this mean for the midterms and for the president? >> well, i think it may be reality setting in. the terms of this indictment for insider trading are just amazing and how brazen what representative collins is accused of doing is. i mean, literally being there on the white house lawn and calling his son, when the stalk is about to fall 90% when they learned the one drug they made is not going to be approved for use. so it sort of reads like an open and shut case. it's going to be very difficult for republicans to defend him. and really, he'd gotten little from the party. after shock, i think it's clear to him and i suspect he got some nudging from top leaders in the party trying to push him out of here. while this district is a strongly republican district, it's not impossible for democrats. collins had just gotten re-elected.

irene o'connell. >> thank you. i'm here today and i will keep this quick as a bawsca director to express my concerns with the proposal as presented in the state board's draft final bay delta plan upset -- update and support the tuolumne plan. i've been on the city council for san bruno for 20 years. i was appointed to the bawsca board of directors in 2003 when it started. i served in various capacities since that time including past chair. i would like to expand on reasons why the tuolumne river plan proposal is in the best interest of the water agencies and the fishery. as was presented this afternoon by san francisco p.u.c. staff, the tuolumne river management plan includes elements to improve habitat, establish a fish hatchery and provide functional flows, which are releases of water into the river. time to match the needs. the elements serve as cornerstones needed to achieve the objectives of the state board plans of the bay delta many further, the tuolumne river management plan would continue to make water ava

joining me republican strategist ford o'connell. strikes me about this, if only republicans in new york could capitalize on this, but you know, they could put in a candidate that is a veteran and they do have a, fielding a candidate in the race but he is somebody who not a lot of people know. and, i don't know that he will be able to capitalize. what are your thoughts on that? >> i think it is going to be very, very hard for him to capitalize. what the new york gop needs to do is take cuomo comments, experiment with them, find out what works. i would also say you get a third party group to vote against primary opponent cynthia nixon. make the vote. they will be back on the ticket, cuomo and nixon in the general election and hopefully medical molinara can squeeze throughcolgate-palmolive barrett is right. house republicans were worried the economy won't be enough. this would help juice voter turnout. melissa: why would he make a statement like this? do you think he meant to say something else? or is he fighting to try to be progressi

joining me now, republican strategist, ford o'connell. ford, to me, this certainly appears almost like president clinton all over again. you're investigating something else, you come up with a payment to a porn star, you come up with a lie about an affair. president clinton lied under oath, that's wrong. if this broke campaign finance laws, that's wrong as well. this has nothing to do with the 2016 russian meddling in the election. what this investigation was supposed to be about. not to diminish the fact that if they committed a felony, it needs to be addressed but what does this mean now for president trump going forward? >> well, i think you hit the nail on the head. the problem with the special counsel is you are investigating a person which in this case is donald trump, and not a specific crime like russian collusion and prosecutors are going to try to squeeze every way possible to do it. manafort's case, i think you also hit the nail on the head earlier and that was about trying to get a conviction and get a witness so you could rac

hope that they will continue helping congo why is it that it is to us so that congo a no one day o'connell is government must be able to solve this problem and so why is the country so often the case that has bountiful natural resources they turn out to be a curse you can see that a lot of the production is there but the result of the revenue is not coming back to the the treasury of the country and that is where is the program where is it going forward. and one of the action to put is to take back all this revenue back to the treasury of the country and you see it from this treasury that we can develop the country and by restoring the security people will be able investor from foreign investor national investor will be able to come back to congo in a given problem and invest get their profit and then i think how can we be developed to model join your ten years inside the political scene has changed so dramatically apps most of all with president trump. what's what's your opinion of the president of the united states of america i think that is the decision the made by the primary can peopl

. >> reporter: indicate laine o'connell rodwell is an animal communication expert who studies elephantsford university. >> the elephant has the largest brain her body size bigger than humans. if size matters, and it does appear that size matters, then elephants could possibly be smarter than us. elephants are so much like us. watching them caring about each other, watching their politics. >> reporter: elephant politics? >> oh, yes. elephant politics. >> reporter: as for communication, elephants understand us better than we understand them. >> donna, foot. >> reporter: behaviors donna was taught to aid in her own care led to the banana test. >> that's what's so exciting about these cognitive experiments with donna, is that we can now ask her a lot of different questions. donna understands english. >> yeah, you're a real treat machine. >> there's probably a lot more that she understands about language than we've figured out how to ask her. >> reporter: thanks to technology, researchers are beginning to decipher dolphin language. the chirps and clicks that come from their blowhole. >> we l

congress is celebrating even though he didn't weigh in danny o'connell lost by just under two thousand votes softer a tight race for the ohio seat that seats being held by republicans since the early one nine hundred eighty s. the election was being seen as a test of donald trump's presidency. john hundred joins us now from west of l. ohio so he lost but they still celebrate the wind john. well that's right the whip the man who has standing by me just a few minutes ago was danny o'connor and we expected him to come out and give a concession speech instead he didn't he said this is still a tie ballgame so he is counting on them counting provisional ballots and absentee ballots and all those kinds of things but it does not look like even if all of those went his way he could make up the difference nevertheless he's calling this a victory and his people are even if he doesn't win by the actual vote count and that is because this is a heavily republican county democrats haven't won here that they've won one time since one thousand nine hundred thirty nine and that was the one you mentioned

lee carter, and ford o'connell is with us. ford, let me start with you. i think the political parties on both sides are making a huge mistake. people say immigration issue. it wasn't just about a terrorist coming in from countries. it was when those 10 former soviet bloc nations were allowed to go into the u.k. you had plummers cutting the price in half. you have so many people who think something is wrong with the way capitalism works. too elizabeth warren's plan is a campaign ploy. she is look over her shoulder sat bernie sanders and kamala harris. republicans across this country would be fools not to look at the rise in socialistic tendencies. right now as a dem kralt socialism basically means free for everything on the taxpayers' time. but at some point you run out of other people's money. charles: how many people does it sounds good to. >> the ideas that we have been talking about almost without exception are now ideas that are mainstream ideas that are supported by the vast majority of the american people. charles: lee, you are the spol pollster --

joining me to discuss, ford o'connell, christopher bedford is with us.is, let me start with you. i think this would be remarkable. to be quite frank with you. when mexico elected a socialist, everyone said we are doomed. it seemed to have hastened a deal. just like south korea. south korea, mexico, maybe some other nations say let's not play hard ball it's an unfair situation. let's fix it. >> mexico's incoming president has a lot of reasons to make a deal with the united states. and there is a couple sticking points. he has known our trade negotiator for years and years. and they are trying to figure out the auto thing. once they figure out the auto thing, canada said they will come. president trump said he wants to bring manufacturing jobs back to the united states. president obama and senator mccain said the manufacturing jobs would never come back. a problem with the socialist candidate is going to be energy. he didn't want the incoming president of mexico did not want the energy to leave state hands. that's going to be a sticking point in the discus

we take it up with political panel, ford o'connel, and raj, ford?s, that is the case, that is only way you can sell medicare for all, these policies, ignore modern history, basic math. and rise of aoppressive regimes, we hear socialism we hear, venezuela and bad what they hear now is canada, affordable housing and affordable college. the difference between what we know and what in a hear. liz: socialism did not make this country perrou -- pros prosperos capitalism. >> i have to say ironic for someone from republican party to suddenly say morality does not have a role. liz: i am talking about? the question. >> actually these issues that she is talking about, i agree with ford, on notion that younger people in america, who are hurting a lot of trump base, the same base that voted for bernie sanders. liz: are you going to answer my question about government controlling all sectors of the economy. >> everyone is a capitalist. liz: she is not a capitalist. >> she is. liz: she is not. >> here is the issue. liz: why do you think -- ford, stay there raj. >>

ford o'connell, and kevin walling, a democratic trad just. sunset clause is it five-year renewal. >> i think it's a bad idea. businesses make these investment decisions, they want certainty about everything from how long the trade deal will be in effect to how this will be lit kateed. what this has done is throw a lot of uncertainty into it. we are seeing the trump administration saying we might have something soon. the economic impact will take about a hyundais. unless you do skinny nafta, then you will need congress to debate this. that's at least 90 days. this is pushing it past the november elections. adam: we heard wages rising to $16 an hour. the lower wages for uaw workers are higher than that. how do you get it past the uaw workers? >> the uaw believes president trump is moving in the right direction in terms of trying to renegotiate nafta. i think this is a positive sign. if you told me nine months ago mexico would be more willing to come to the bargaining table than canada in terms of renegotiating nafta. hopefully mexico and the u.

o'connell and of course paul ryan is a lame duck, he is moving out. if we have the house and you have someone like jim jordan was the speaker of the house, things could change. all of it is both political and sending messages to congress over what the president is willing to do. he won the shut down last time when it was about daca. there is a sense that can be accomplished again. the bottom line is, he wants results versus the politicking. if anyone can get it, it is him. >> steve: for the reasons we have been discussing, everyone is sick of congress. can anything be done to make it work? our guest has a plan to do that. that's after the break ♪motorcycle revving ♪ motorcycle revving ♪motorcycle revving ♪ motorcycle revving ♪ no matter who rides point, ♪ there are over 10,000 allstate agents riding sweep. ♪♪ and just like tyrone taylor, they know what it takes to help keep you protected. are you in good hands? >> steve: welcome back.a key fog government policy. so that people's interests come first and not those of the big donors and insiders. a new

ford o'connell is back pass well. let's start with you, the news never stops with this. an editorial in the "wall street journal." and with the whole mcghan thing. where do you see this right now in all the different moving parts? >> that's a big question. with the mcghan thing, the important thing to realize is basically he didn't fall back on executive privilege. he let mcghan talk. that's indicative somebody who has nothing to cover up. trump is claiming this is a witch hunt. one thing that's important is transparency across the board. i think it would be important for trump to declassify the documents congress' requested it's important for americans to see for themselves because we are seeing this become so politicized. charles: it's also moving in a lot of different directions. people are saying if you had a specific reason for ordering a special counsel and it starts to veer off and tent cals start coming. that's the basis for a witch hunt or something it wasn't suppose to be. they are look for anything except collusion. >> we knew this would and broad investigatio

you saw the polling, balderson, 44%, and o'connell 43%. undecided 11%.is a seat that republicans have held for decades. it's a governor john kasich's former congressional seat. why is it up for grabs? >> a couple of reasons. number one, it's a district with a lot of suburban areas and that's an area we've seen. in my district, doing well in in the areas and did poorly in the near suburbs. in this case the district is more a suburban district and our candidate is from the rural area. so it sort of stacks up really well for them. having said all of that, i think balderson will win this thing. there was a very divided republican primary, 500 votes separated the two. i think there's been a little bit more coming together because the folks who were sort of anti-balderson were trump people. trump coming there will hopefully consolidate and pull this off. >> i think it's a risky strategy because as the senator was saying it is a suburban area but also an area where you have college educated voters and those are the voters trump is doing the worst with and parti

kristin: here to discuss is a bit more of senator mccain's legacy is fort o'connell, and serving as director of outreach for the 2008 presidential campaign. ford, thank you for being with us. >> is truly an honor. when we came up short in 2008 it was a pleasure to work for john and i learned a lot of valuable things. he really was a true public servant and a good man. kristin: was that like being in the trenches of a campaign with someone like mccain? >> when he was the campaign that takes years off your life. when you win one it takes two years off your life. everything we stood for was embodied in the campaign slogan country first. a lot of times it wasn't specifically about republicans or democrats or insult for obama. it was about america in the direction of the country. sometimes he was stubborn and ornery but that was john driving the ship. leland: in a town of adjectives so often, you almost don't need them for john mccain because he lived out what he said he was going to do. a rare thing for a politician. as we look back on the clips of him he spoke out about unity and turns around,

hereford o'connell, republican strategist, civic forum pac chairman.rtedly happening buzzfeed saying it. do you think it is too late given the midterms are coming up so soon? >> i don't know what they can do about the midterms, to be honest. hopefully use the best practices to move forward to help news the 2020 elections. they're behind the eight ball. they know it. they are getting a lot of public pressure and getting a lot of public pressure. hopefully they figure out how to prevent foreign actors influencing our action. i hope they focus beyond russia, and focus on north korea and iran and china, because it is more than russia trying to influence our elections. kristina: do you think they will push for government intervention or independent body will censor social media for all of us? >> i don't think the government should be in the business of weighing in on this matter, at least in terms of respect to how its american users go about pushing information back and forth. buff i think the government has to take a serious role. if you're conservative,

take it up with republican strategist ford o'connell. so, basically it is fake news, not the press.hat is what the president is saying. >> look the president has a great point that study after study showed that no president has received negative coverage for donald trump for such a sustained period of time. the average negative coverage among the mainstream media is 90% negative. when you recognize the great economic achievements in this country, 66% of the people saying hey the economy is good, not only is it unbalanced it is pretty spiteful. cn. [is worst offender of all 93% according to. liz: acosta is responding saying reporters should protest. >> i'll say that the press is not the enemy of the people, and, you know, i think, you know, maybe we should make some bumper stickers. make some buttons, you know. maybe we should go out on pennsylvania avenue like the folks who chant cnn sucks and fake news. maybe we should go out, all journalists should go out on pennsylvania avenue, chant, we're not the enemy of the people. liz: let's set this straight, okay. here is what is going on.

him but he concluded that in light of precedent and in light of the supreme court decision in the o'connellcase, he was bound by precedent, and so that meant he ruled against them. the third case was a case called -- where it involved a detainee, a war of terrorism detainee, that the obama administration was trying to transfer to a foreign company -- country. the question involved the president's ability to make this transfer. judge kavanaugh in that case looked at the arguments and sided with president obama. he approved the transfer, at his opinion was clear that he did not believe that the president at a blank check when it comes to national security. he wrote an opinion that explained how in our system of separation of powers, checks and balances, congress has a big role to play, and even though he was running for president obama in this case, that did not mean the president always wins in the national security arena. i have seen the same approach applying his judicial philosophy fairly and impartially, being independent-minded in cases over and over again since i left the clerkship. ju

. >> now balderson's opponent is democrat danny o'connell and at 31 years old he would be the youngestutspent balderson and also been very careful to criticize nancy pelosi and not president trump. he's trying to appeal to those who don't like the president and his policies. one month ago the polls had him ten points behind balderson and now, sandra companies one point away, well within the margin of error. >> sandra: and kristin fisher in columbus, ohio, thank you. joining me now is tom bevins, cofounder of real clear politics. what should we be watching? >> this all comes down to turn out. and as a reporter just mentioned, the suburbs of columbus, franklin county which is where a third of the vote would be cast in 2016, that's the area where balderson -- president trump did the worst. while education suburbanite wel. that's where balderson has to really -- he needs a rural vote obviously but he needs to have votes in that area as well if he wants to pull the race out and it's going to be very, very close. >> sandra: what's at stake in this race? >> the typical caveat is not to read i

she says i'm a current student, 10th grader at john o'connell high school. last year was my first year at the school. the prior school, i was student body president. the reason why i'm speaking tonight is because of what happened to me last year that still needs to be addressed and bothers me. 9th grade was supposed to be special, but it wasn't. i was bullied, jumped, and then kicked out of school all the way. my perfect grades messed up; forgotten by san francisco unified school district as many african americans are. my mom fought hardtor me, but to our surprise, she got trespassed from the school for no reason. i just hope that things have change, and if i have a problem, i can talk about it without being fearful of getting kicked out of school. after all, i was student body president of my last school, but now, sfusd makes it seem like i'm a horrible student, and i don't want my perfect record ruined now or my concerns not listened to. this current school year, i just want to be the best i can be. i care about my grades and education. i just wish that th

out front is jonathan o'connell.y, a two-year trend is reversed and the trump hotel revenues are back in the black like that? >> it was quite a turner for the trump hotel so new york hotel prices have been competitive recently. then during this much publicized visit from the saudi prince, not for the trump hotel. some associated travelers of the prince all stayed at the trump international hotel. we don't know how many, but room rates are typically above $600 a night and if you add up a bunch of $600 a night for those five day days. >> do you have any sense on what the heck the money could have been spent on if it wasn't just the room or other things? >> all we know is the information for the most part that the -- what was provided to the unit there is. so the president's company doesn't own all of the hotel. investors do and those folks are not pleased with the revenue they've been seeing given what's happened with the trump brand in new york. >> and you talk about the donald trump but here's the thing, let's be cle

. >> i have a question for brian o'connell. and i can listen to you forever, i was fascinated by your story of james hoban. you described him as a iris -- irish peasant, and that he went on to this wonderful architectural school and came to the united states. what were the circumstances in ireland which enabled him to move to that architectural school, did he have a mentor, was it a system in place that would have enabled that to happen? >> at the beginning of the 18th century, it was a time of philanthropy when in fact organizations in the time of the world of knowledge. organizations and societies or what became of them were being set up for the investigation of science in the interest of mankind. both the theories of things were improved it with the concept of improvement that everything could be improved. what you had was a gentry and an aristocracy that would contribute. the way that they would do that is to create a society, and as we outlined with the history of that, and by the middle of the 18th century they had decide

here is discuss is ford o'connel. kayleigh mcenany. ford. you know, this is not necessarily new, per se, on the socialist side, these numbers have not changed a lot for millennials or democrats in terms of how they positively view socialism, what dropped is their belief that capitalism is answer, in 2010, 68% had a positive view, that number is 45%, that poses a amazing political and economic problem. >> i have to say, somewhere adam smith, modern of father capitalism is rolling over in his grave in disgust. this poll shows how far left the democratic party is moving and how radical they have become, not that socialism on the rise. it a capitalism on the decline. in a 9 point drop that is i is amazing given the positive economic news we have had in this country under president trump. bottom line that democrats are going in for socialism and ignoring capitalism, history suggests that, socialism does not work. charles: we all know history, but people who are living in here and now, say, whether adam smith was allowed old folks passed away, the

so there's several different -- like, for instance, we just had one at o'connell, and that was the pathway. i'm not sure -- i'm trying to remember which one -- >> i think this one was the teacher residency one. >> do you know which one? >> it's the one that's located -- >> yeah, i remember. >> at mclaren. >> mclaren? does anybody know? >> i believe we have not found an alternate location. >> okay. i really want to find an alternate location because if we're going to be recruiting teachers and i'll just say it again, that is like the most pitiful place for us to try to, you know, train our teachers. it's a total distraction, and i just don't think it really represents who we are, nor does it pay them any respect to come to a place where we're trying to provide them with professional development. >> noted. >> okay. thank you. and then -- and then, on page 29 on the instructional guidance, for central office, you have p.d. on antiracist teaching. so that central office or is that school sites? or what's central office's purpose? i mean -- yeah, so what's their role on the p.d. on the antiraci

. >> i have a question for brian o'connell. by the way, i could have listened to you forever. i was fascinated by your story of james hoban. you described him as an irish catholic peasant, a carpenter and then he went on to this wonderful architectural school and was able to come to the united states. what were the circumstances in ireland that enabled him to move to that architectural school? did he have a mentor? was it a system that was in place that would have enabled that to happen? >> yeah, at the beginning of the 18th century, it was a time of philanthropy when, in fact, organizations and a time of the growth of knowledge, organizations or societies, which became royal societies, are be being set up for the investigation of science in the interest of mankind. agriculture, a whole series of things were being improved. it was a concept, the idea of improvement, that everything could be improved. what you had then was an aristocracy that would contribute. the way they would contribute is to create a society, the dublin society was created and merlo has outlined the history

explicitly unconstitutional and what we know, i'm joined by the co-author of the piece, reporter jonathan o'connell, and zefer, a former law professor. jonathan, what information do we have about what happened here? >> well, we know the saudi prince came to new york on a very publicized visit to america in march. we know that some members of the people traveling with him stayed at the trump hotel instead of the plaza hotel where the prince was staying. and we know that that stay was lucrative enough for the trump hotel that their revenue went up by 13% for that quarter instead of dropping as it had done in the previous two years. >> just to be clear here, this letter -- they don't have shareholders, right, it's a family owned business. the letter is a kind of like an earnings call that you would do if you did have shareholders. so he's saying when you want to look at what kind of quarter we did, we had this big boost because the saudis rolled through and spent a lot of money basically. >> right. the specifics here are that the hotel is managed and branded by president trump's company, which he stil

we go back to capris cafaro along with ford o'connell.nk of that, capri, that is a test run for democrats? there's a lot of energy on the far left of their party, but if andrew billam doesn't win -- gill lam doesn't win, to me that would be a warning sign to the democrats, be careful about the kinds of candidates you choose. what do you think? >> i know it's really attractive to try to use this race in florida as kind of a metaphor for, you know, the soul of both parties. you have, you know, on the republican side someone who, you know, is supported by trump if what does that mean for the future of the republicans, then you have the bernie sanders candidate on the democratic side -- connell: but you're going to tell us it doesn't -- >> i don't think this means a whole lot of anything for anybody. and here's why. because if you take a look at the numbers -- >> i disagree. >> and, ford, look, you're from florida so, you know, i will defer to you on this.
