whistle blow at launch a bird snot and gets an invitation to venezuela with president obama do we're also going to humanitarian saddam but it remains unclear just how you can reach the safe haven. deadly divide in egypt so just six killed and more than one thousand eight hundred a nationwide clashes between opponents and supporters of president morsy with rival groups continuing background checks. on the route of a privacy the threatens to spawn data sharing with the gloss over the n.s.a.'s vast snooping program despite revelations francaise embracing similar talk text.

president obama says the scandals are phony. why do you think he says they're phony, because he believes it or is there a strategy? >> no, there's a strategy. i've been troubled by something the obama -- i playfully call it the regime, because i know it irritates them. it is a regime. >> here is a man whose policies have done great damage to this country. policies have done great damage to the economy. have done great damage to the american culture, to the american psyche. i mean, there is a malaise, there's a sense of hopelessness and depression out there. and it's his policies that have done this. what has always amazed me is how he's not attached to any of it. he has an agenda, he's been implementing it, but the -- what i call the low information voters who voted for him and other democrats do not associate obama's policies and agenda, with the condition of the country. the economy or whatever. that's always befuddled me. i've never, never known a president to be immune from economic circumstances at an election as he was in 2012. i

order type as secretary of i homeland security.>> do you think that's true or do you think distrust by republicans of barack obamarepublicans won't care. >> believe me, we did what the j president asked us to do and should have done what the president asked us to do, and this isn't just generalized distrust. in the last two weeks, the president has weighed in major s proposals of a piece of legislation he likes, obama care. can anyone believe he won't waive aspects of the legislation he doesn't like for border en security? of rity? deportations under obama. >> wait, i have to bring this mt in, congresswoman, you want to talk about the subject in ng general. number of names have been nd mentioned as possible replacements for janet napolitano as secretary of homeland security.e are you interested in the job?t if elected, women you serve?e >> i have a plum job at wilson center, there are lots of good names there. >> you didn't answer the ep question. would you take obit, are you ery interested? >> i'm interested in keeping tha job i've got, thank you very much. >> senators vote to confirm jane harm harman. she was k

those are cities ruined by liberal policies, and what i fear is barack obama will do to the nation whatiberals did to detroit. dennis: den miles, i feel the president's lament is not inequality, but upset that the outcome is inequal. what do you think, miles? >> exactly. if he gave people clear opportunity, you get better outcomes from the middle class, the poor, and the nation. dennis: tell me who has lack of opportunity exactly? what's going on with this horrible inequality of opportunity? >> we have made, we have more low wage jobs than we had, more education -- education is more costly. child care costs people are stuck with. you need to give people the tools to take and get the opportunity -- >> okay. >> then if you work hard, you can do it. >> just a minute. dennis: go ahead. >> we have an education program that works, and washington, d.c., weave given out 5,000 vouchers, and it's about the only program in the whole federal budget barack obamaments to be rid of, and it's an education program working for low income people. >> we don't know it works. we don't know if it works. >> if

saying about border enforcement he could put a real law in type of do you think that is true or the distrust by republicans of barack obamas they don't care who is in the job? >> i think that is right. we can what the president asked us to do. again, this isn't just generalized distrust. just in the last two weeks, he has raised major proposals obamacare. can anybody that that she note going to wave pieces of legislation he doesn't like. border security? >> there have been very high deportations under president obama. >> chris: i've got bring this in. a number of names have been mentioned as possible replacements including janet napolitano secretary homeland security including yours. are you interested in the job? >> i have a plum job heading the wilson center. there are lots of good names out there. >> chris: you didn't answer the question. would you take it? are you interested? >> i am interested in keeping the job i got, thank you very much. >> is there a vote to confirm. >> janet napolitano whom i've known for 25 years, she was attorney general, there is no way she is not tough on crime. i think she tried hard to mana

mazing lee it's proving very difficult for president obama to do anything about it he has all of the one hundred sixty six prisoners there he has eighty six men who were told that the united states didn't want to carry on holding them three and a half years ago by an interagency task force that he established and as you mentioned it's costing nearly a million dollars a year to keep men that the u.s. doesn't even want to hold so the president's had obstruction in congress he's been unwilling to spend the political capital to release men and he still needs to do something about that we've had a fine speech from him which was back on may the twenty third when he said he was going to resume releasing prisoners from guantanamo and since then not a single prisoner has been released so you know for us to have had the american day of independence yesterday and people to be celebrating their freedom from tyranny i think it's very ironic that what's happening in tyler is that this horrendous force feeding is still happening for these men who are subject to the new tyranny of the united states

i have never seen president obama do any of that.e's a truly talented man. >>> now let's turn from the ridiculously staged to the ridiculously cute. this puppy doesn't have time to walk down the stairs, but it it found a more efficient method. check out this chocolate lab as it slides down the stairs. it looks like it's painful but fun at the same time. that's all i got for you today. i'll have more tomorrow. let's turn to mika with a look at what's coming up next on "morning joe." >> i can assure you i have never been to cannes. coming up on "morning joe," the situation deteriorates in egypt as more than 80 protesters are killed in weekend clashes with the military. where's the white house in all of this? we'll talk to richard haas. >>> and here at home, anthony weiner's campaign takes another hit as he loses another key member of his campaign. and christine quinn speaks out an exclusive interview on "meet the press." >>> she was a champion for women's issues and civil rights. we'll celebrate the life of lynndy baug straight ahead.

i think and you compare what president obama is up against -- versussident bush, president bush, resident bush was lobbied to do more work in africa, and some of that work transafrica has been supportive of, and some of it we are not. resident obamae has to be very careful. he is a fine mind when it comes to africa. he did not go to kenya. people thought, of course he is going to kenya because he is a son of kenya, but it was a prudent choice not to go because of the elections just held. you have a president who has been brought up for charges with the criminal court. it is a fine line. while i want to see more engagement, more of our money going to help the people of africa, i do see that it is important to understand he is dealing with many forces that are having an impact on his choice is. >> how do you think he navigated the trip to south africa, given the condition of nelson mandela? fax i get is tough. -- >> i think it is tough. an up andhealth has down. if he had gone people would say it was opportunistic. i think it was a essential he honored the family. he talked openly about mandela's role in the cont

what do you want president obama do now? >> well, he -- as the heat keeps rise og on this crisis, trayvon is a symbol of a deeper malady. and at some point eisenhower had to stop in on civil rights. at some point the president has to step in and offer what he can offer. i think the heat will continue to rise. >> what will you do if the department of justice decides not to file charges against george zimmerman as you and the naacp and others have called on the justice department to do? would what you do then? would there be some action? >> we think that the department of justice does have an action that it should pursue. a, i think there will be a civil suit filed. no doubt the question, the inclination to boycott florida, to stop conventions, isolate florida as a kind of apartheid state given this whole stand your ground laws. homicides against blacks have tripled since this law has been in existence. now more homicides and more guns make us less secure. i hope all actions remain disciplined, dignified and non-violent. if th

moscow were ready to try to do something about that and then came snowden not only snow but he clearly is a setback and i would say both for president putin and president obama but do you think that putin is handling the snowden situation but wisely where what makes this very interesting is that president putin is a man who likes to control the environment in which he makes international and i suppose domestic decisions he couldn't control this snowden came literally out of the blue and he had to decide what to do so he's caught and he was caught and he remains caught between two very strong countervailing factors on the one hand putin pursues in the world what i would call not and anti american foreign policy but and an american foreign policy that is say or a non american foreign policy that is a foreign policy rather different from the united states in many areas therefore he could not turn snowden a highly symbolic figure over to the united states on the other hand it's absolutely clear that putin wants some kind of cooperative relationship with the united states i think he's probably done as good as he can do as i understand it the solution is to. allow

i was vocal about the fact that democrats trashed george bush for doing it and they're not going to trash obama for doing the same thing. it's funny that these young people who put everybody they hooked up with last night all expecting privacy when it comes to something else. okay. >> yeah. i alwa like the ones -- always the i. >> yeah. you know, but your ,000 facebook friends, that's okay. look, at the end of the day, i think there is no expectation of privacy. there should not be. those of us who were against the patriot act ten years ago were fearful of -- >> but young people in particular julie, listening to their point and karls maybe you can sound on this point. they really do, as a clear sort of libertarian streak in this regard. that they don't rlly like the government messing around in their stuff and with their stuff. >> they feel like the 1,000 facebook fans or people on their facebook, that's their community. so, yeah, they put everything out there. they share everything. but they think that they're only sharing it with specific people and they do not like that. >> well, are they na

what does obama do? >> what he does is what we also do with our laws, read them a different way. >> don't call it a coup. call it a coop. >> they took it one step further. military was involved in the -- have you on cut off aid. i would say -- cut -- tie the aid to creating businesses and capitalism, not to democracy. a great article in the telegraph by frazier nelson who said the whole air spring things started not because they wanted democracy. then wanted to sell stuff. one of the merchants set himself on fire. tunisian street. because he is not interested in politics. he just wanted to be a capitalist. if we can tie the aid to that sort of thing, hooray. i don't know if we can. >> thoughts? >> well, lighting oneself on fire is never a good idea. i think we are in a bit of a conundrum here because i think that in bob's fate we should continue to support the military especially because the military is not controlled by the muslim brotherhood. specifications say legally we are not able do so. prohibited

what did obama do? embrace him. came to the white house. >> the egyptians are blaming america for mohamed morsi. obama did not step in and say what are you doing when morsi tried to seize power from the parliament and the courts. now that the majority of the egyptian people said we want democracy, but this guy is not taking us to democracy, he's taking us to dictatorship again. we want to work with them. give them the assistance they need. the new interim president will help rewrite the constitution. the military, they look like they are taking that freedom train and going in the correct direction. heather: the muslim brotherhood, they are the most cohesive group in egypt. they are not going anywhere soon. what do you expect to happen? >> the day to watch is saturday. friday, the egyptians will go to the mosques, the mosques are where the muslim brotherhood have been active the last 80 years. with the imams whoop them up and will they go to the streets again? that's when you have to watch will violence break out. th

much encourage it for us if we go to you first in south africa in johannesburg is obama bringing much hope to africa i do not think that president obama will bring any hope to this continent and i say so for one main reason president obama is morally bankrupt some of the model failures of this world and to this end in south africa we have legislation called the implementation of their own statute which basically mystic aids your own state shoot into south african legislation and allows a so therefore can court to try obama for war crimes or to be for him to the international criminal court and the muslim lawyers association have in this respect submitted to the prosecuting authorities in the police what is known as the obama docket and then docket essentially is for objectives we have presented evidence that obama is guilty of war crimes crimes against humanity and genocide we have done so first because we believe it is really just duty to speak out against a tyrant like obama to hold him accountable for his claims second we have done so in order to bring justice to the victims of these envisions policy

do. casey, president obama heading to the hill today, what do we expect?s just as he's rolled out this so-called new grand bargain. >> as you know, from covering the white house, the president has had an up and down relationship, even with democrats, on capitol hill. so this really sets the stage. it's to reassure people in his party when we come back in the fall, there's a plan, that he has a stage set for these big budget talks for pushing immigration reform and for implementing health care reform. there's a lot of concern especially on the house side about how rocky implementing that health care bill is going to be. and they have a lot of political concerns about hanging on to their seats going on to the next year. >> jamal, some democrats have complained in the past the president has not done a good enough job reaching out to them. in this case he's dropping individual tax reform. what does he need to say to them to make sure they are on board with them in the fall? >> he has to convince them. he's been talking about the economy. i think democrats are

what should president obama do if putin spits in the eye of america and gives whistleblower snowden asylum>> bill: more chaos obama care. according to the chamber of commerce 74% of small business owners will fire workers and/or cut hours because of obama care. also, three very progressive unions now say that the national healthcare law will hurt their members and they don't like how things are developing. the largest union the teamsters headed by uber democrat james jr. says quote we can no longer stand silent in the face of elements of the affordable care act that will destroy the health and well being of our members along with members of the hard working americans, unquote. with us here to reply one of the stars bob beckel. you still support obama care. but it's starting to look a little shaky now. >> listen, jimmy hoffa and these guys are negotiators. trade hacks. got a five year extension, so did everybody else, to 18. now they are starting to negotiate another five years. >> bill: they don't have to go by the obama care mandates. >> these guys helped write this thing. >> i know they

do that. the laws that president obama is implementing would not have passed congress and did not pass congress and as bad as throwing the anti-fraud measures and employer mandate out the window is, what they're doing with those subsidies, they're not supposed to be available and ron knows they're not supposed to be available. 2/3 of the states have rejected a health care exchange. the law made the medicaid subsidies condition on state cooperation but president obama is trying to spend $800 billion in those states without any congressional authorization whatsoever. getting rid of the anti-fraud measure pales in comparison to that. >> somebody who was conservative would say in 2/3 of the conservative states -- >> i'm not a conservative, ron. >> we should not be providing subsidies for people in the so-called red states. that's absolutely extraordinary. >> unfortunately, whatever your political point of view, ron, i appreciate it and i respect it, all i'm saying is the reality is as michael cannon and i think myself, is what we're describing. we know, we know with certainty that over let's see 30

much encourage it for us if we go to you first in south africa in johannesburg is obama bringing much hope to africa i do not see that the president obama will bring any hope to this continent and i say so for one main reason president obama is morally bankrupt the model fair use of this world and to this end in south africa we have legislation called the implementation of their own statute which basically gates the. legislation and allows a so therefore can court to try obama for war crimes or to be for him to the international criminal court and the muslim lawyers association have in this respect submitted to the prosecuting authorities in the police what is known as the obama docket and then docket essentially is for us we have presented evidence that obama is guilty of walk crimes against humanity and genocide we have done so first because we believe it is really just duty to speak out against a tyrant like obama to hold him accountable for his claims. can we have done so in order to bring justice to the victims of these of indecision spoilers see the victims of torture in detention policies such as

like the join joint chiefs of sf to president obama do this or else. the military said you now have 48 hours with you and all the political parties to reach a compromise before we the army impose our own plan. the political parties are all arguing. the military said "the nation is in danger." just what we need, the military going to the radio waves, right? sparking angry response from president morsi supporters, which there are quite a they said the age of military coups is over. in case you haven't noticed. antigovernment protesters in cairo tahrir square chaired one military helicopters swooped overhead, trailing national flags and we're looking at this right now, we have this live feed coming through anytime anything happens here we will go right back to it. you can see there are now some tent set up. the issue becomes morsi took over for mubarak. everybody was very unhappy with president mubarak. here is the egyptian stock exchange, has dropped recently. right now as you see over the past month, past couple of days it has started to falter once aga

do, largely under health care. . charles: having said that, this decision earlier in the week to delay the penalty for employers with respect to the obama care, let's say the white house said, okay, you know what? we'll make that permanent. do you think that will trigger some sort of mass job creation and also change the dynamics of employment from all of these big-- all of these part-timers to more full-timers? >> i think it will be a positive signal, but a couple of things the past 60 days to keep in mind. one you have a health secretary who says she's surprised they have to implement. and two the gao coming out, as far as the exchanges they have little confidence that the states and the federal government will be able to stand those up and also the modifications in april where the small businesses were told that employees go with the plan that they select as opposed to small business employees picking what they want. so, you have a succession of things going on with the overall health care implementation that are problematic, one laser shot on the fix list will not fix it. you've got to look at the whole law. >> paul connolly, have a

do tremendous damage and that's exactly what happened. it's got to be yellen. so, who was the trial balloon put out there by president obama? rry summers. now, he didn't pick larry summers yet, i want to be clear on that, but you do a trial balloon on the guy you favor the most to see the reaction, and they know that larry summers is toxic, so they said all right, we might take larry summers. everyone was what are you doing? why would you pick him? david sirota is on the panel with us. why in the world would he pick larry summers? >> it's a good question and what's confusing here is that wall street, a lot of people are saying they want janet yellen, the democratic political establishment want yellen. if lots of professional politicians and wall street wants a candidate, we should be asking deeper questions about why. my assessment is basically that larry summers has become such a toxic personality, and got so many things wrong, that at minimum, the politicians in the senate and folks on wall street would prefer somebody who is at least forgetting about ideology, questions of policy on regulation, at least somebody who got a

do not spy on each other. and jerl knee's government -- and germany's government huff and bugging friends is unacceptable. president obama says hang on a minute, sparky. those were his words. it was at a conference in tanzania. that is what intelligence services do, he says. >> i guarantee you that in european capitals there are people who are interested in if not what i had for breakfast, at least what my talking points might be should i end up meeting with their leaders. that's how intelligence services operate. >> it is just preparation for meeting people. it is just like doing a little background research. snowden himself is still in moscow, wherever that is, with one russian news agency where they formally requested asylum and vladimir putin saying he wouldn't consider the request unless they stopped seeking america's secrets. you know who else is looking for an escape? >> i can't wait to see what you got. >> good luck to you. >> i didn't even know he was depressed. there are people who can help you, little kitten. >> i made a phone call to the people there and he survived the fall and he is doing great. he is now a

stinks too high it's no longer going to be obama care it's going to be biden care they will push it over on plugs throw him out the door. i am hoping the items doma care in when they realize you might need a photo i.d. to participate in the program. >> bill: that's right. they're not going to go for that. >> that or when the long knives come in inside the tent as roger says. >> bill: miller, you covered a lot of ground. we would like to remind you only two bolder fresher shows left this year where tickets are available. jacksonville, florida saturday, september 12th. and caesar's palace saturday, november 15th. spokane and nashville all sold out. thank you very much. zimmerman verdict weigh-in, it is not pretty. right back with it.

there is an individual who does have the authority to address this issue, in describing president obama. do you think that she is right in that? >> oh, absolutely. president obama is the commander in chief. it's the executive branch that's made a decision to resort to force feeding of detainees at guantanamo, and if president obama is extremely unhappy at that state of affairs, he can certainly change it. >> in terms of the controversy surrounding this issue, obviously the judge is moved by the prisoners' pleas that this is something that is both demeaning and cruel. is there legal clarity on the issue of whether or not this is the appropriate policy, whether or not this is something doctors legally can do and this is something prisons ought to do? >> no, there isn't. there's a substantial difference of opinion, and i'm not entirely unsympathetic to the physicians at guantanamo bay who i think are in a difficult situation. i mean, i think one perspective is, look, we have an ethical duty to prevent these detainees from harming themselves. that they may be detained for a long time, maybe ind

it was done in 2005, why can't president obama do it? one thing they ought to do -- >> are we going to let greg get in here? >> sure. >> this is a big one also. after the zimmerman acquittal, beyonce and stevie wonder boycotted florida and jay z had this to say. >> honestly, i didn't sleep for two days. i was really angry about it. didn't trayvon have a right to stand his ground? he was being chased. he was being chased and he fought back. you know, he may have won. that doesn't mean he's a criminal. we all know it was wrong. it was wrong. you know? this guy is not a profession, this guy is a novice. he's a [ bleep ] mall cop. >> greg? >> yeah, i think what jay z is saying is absolutely a legitimate opinion. a lot of people disagree with it. i wasn't there. so i don't know what happened. therefore, i can't even comment. he can comment without knowing, but it's a legitimate opinion he can have it. i want to talk about this focus on race and where the really ride is is. the really ride is is not on skin color, but on skin thickness. the th

this has nothing to do with the debate between free market principles and obama care. >> why not? xcuse me, this is about getting children and their parents signed up for health care that they don't have. >> then go to -- >> this has nothing to do with indoctrinated people about anything. >> of course it is. >> this is about getting people signed up to have health care. >> this is one-sided. >> you would understand this. >> howard, guys, i didn't make it to the l.a. public school system, maybe that's still in front of me. but look, i want to ask you this. you saw today the announcement. they are now waiving obama care for large businesses for another year. and there's a lot of people around, howard, that think this thing's never going to get off the ground, there's no infrastructure in the states and they'll never finance it and therefore it'll die of its own way. why would you want to teach kids in schools as noelle said impressionable young kids, a system that didn't work? why would you want to do that? >> first of all, what you want to do is get -- sign people up for health care

treasury secretary jack liu hit sunday show circuit with ultimatum for republicans if president obama do not get his way on the upcoming budget and debt ceiling battles, he will not negotiate. here is liu drawing the president's line in the sand, and kicking sand in the eyes of the g.o.p. >> president has made clear, he has told congress he will not sign a bill, if it fixes defense at expense of domestic spending, congress has it write bills that meet challenge. >> lew making his comments after washington post reports that top obama administration officials are pushing strategy that would lead to a government shut down if republicans continue to demand spending cuts and refusen to the sequester, and furthering administration stone call of irs targets of conservatives. fox news sunday host chris wallace asking lew if irs chief council, william wilkins had been questions by authorities yet. an office that reports to the treasury department. lew refused to answer the question, take a listen. >> somebody in treasury department ask william wilkins what he knew about this. >> chris, there is n

to do so, president obama will need to pivot from scandals that plagued them since the inauguration. and the pivot to the u.s. economy. it is not the first time he tried to do that, either. ed henry has the lead story tonight. >> reporter: even as white house aides reveal president obama's economic address wednesday will just be the first of a slew of speeches that may continue for the next 12 weeks, they struggle to explain exactly what will be new. >> you will hear the president enunciate, provide a vision of where we have been, where we are, and where we need to go. >> reporter: such remarks have been delivered many times before. >> keeping the economy going and making sure jobs are available is the first thing i think about when i wake up in the morning, the last thing i think about when i go to bed each night. >> reporter: republicans suggest speeches will have little impact. >> i argue the policies are in the way, whether obama care or needless regulations that are coming out of the government. >> reporter: today, wall street reached new record highs, as 39% of economists survey

. >> john: so with a bitterly divided government what can president obama do? let's ask democratic strategic from forbes.com rick unger and tina dupuy, the editor in chief of the contributor.com. you heard the president's speech last week, of course, other than saying we need to reduce income inequality, and i would rather hear uneven income growth. that's what the last 30 years been about, what has president obama done about these issues? he takes a lot of heat from the right and the left on it, but rick, what has he done and what could he do outside of the executive orders? >> there are two levels. one is philosophical, and the other is real things he could do to have more immediate impact. jobs bills, infrastructure bills, he has even gone so far of developing infrastructure in the private sector, and the congress would have none of it. he can't do it on his own. on the philosophical part, i wonder if he could kick it up a notch to find a way to drive home the point that the republicans could blame him for this forever, let's go back 30 years. before anybody

what was obama doing today? you decide when we come back. the number one thing that viewers like about the young turks is that we're honest. they know that i'm not bs'ing them with some hidden agenda, actually supporting one party or the other. when the democrats are wrong, they know that i'm going to be the first one to call them out. they can question whether i'm right, but i think that the audience gets that this guy, to the best of his ability, is trying to look out for us.
