let's start with this posner opinion. it's an incredible joy to read. >> it's great. >> it leaves nothing standing. basically, the argument is, look, i had this five years ago or seven years ago, i guess and i thought yeah, i guess it's possible. voter fraud is happening. and in seven years, you guy have produced no evidence. it's not happening. ergo, this is a bad effort to restrict the vote. >> he has been enlightened. and that is a wonderful thing. as a civil rights attorney, during my career because of the bush and reagan years, i actually start with the decents. that's where i read first because it makes the most sense. and if you really read it, he tears apart every reason that conservatives have had for voter id, calling voter fraud paranoid and goofy. i mean, going onto actually call his own courts, the other judges, pacically elitist saying, you know, we get free ids as judges from court security. but other people aren't so lucky. and so it is just a great example of a decent that we will rely upon when we get to

and you have seen richard posner, judge posner, that there's a conservative intellectual case with which is cost benefit analysis. a lot of bureaucratic red tape actually. so it's been good to see that at least from one person on one bench. >> the at least. heather mcgee and ari berman, it's always good to see you. thanks for you time. the white house is now requiring colleges to publish data on sexual assaults. addressing it on college campuses up next. alright guys. the usual. double wings, extra ranch. we need to do something different. callahan's? ehh, i mean get away, like, away away. road trip? double wings, extra ranch. feels good to mix it up. the all-new, fuel-efficient volkswagen golf tdi clean diesel. up to 594 miles of adventure in every tank. the setting is perfect. you know what? plenty of guys have this issue, not just getting an erection, but keeping it. well, viagra helps guys with ed get and keep an erection. and you only take it when you need it. good to know, right? if ed is stopping what you started... ask you doctor about viagra.

as judge richard posner one of the leading conservative injurist and one of the judges who upheld in the seventh circuit court of appeal indiana said these laws are more restrictive. they're not justifiable. they're impacting votes for no good reason. >> i covered the pennsylvania voter i.d. case at some length. it's interesting that the government there was willing to keep revising and moving the target in order to make the law stick. they really wanted to get those new laws into place, and with each new impediment they would say, all right, we'll send around moving vans. we'll send people into neighborhoods. we'll bus people into places to get their photos taken. what was billed as a money-saving measure in some instances ended up putting the state on the hook for potentially millions of dollars before the law didn't go into effect. it's hard to see--you talked earlier about the validity of the vote and restoring confidence, i don't think there is anybody who disagrees with that. >> i do, but go on. >> there has to be some suspicion that it's being broken in the first place in orde

[laughter] it is a posner to talk about about drones with the then to posted by dhl they're doing what others have talked about. and i hope in addition into new delivering medicine maybe they will start delivering box. [laughter] my book tells what i thought was this story the story of invention. in the caa and how the age of aviation began. five years ago writing avenue book to get a comprehensive look and as many called them unmanned arial vehicle or uav. but then i read an article that the 10 aircraft that change the world. the only uav was the predator. the predator was the uav that change the world. it seemed to me more and more evident it natalie changed the world of warfare but opened the door to the m&a and civilian aviation revolution. end of those of the drug revolution. the five-year said it took to write this book is as strange as the aircraft itself. it was just a buzz or unorthodox as the predator. the former israeli aeronautic engineer the people regard as a genius. board in 1937 but grown up with the socialist idea that characterizes israel of the 40's and 50's. by his

afterve comes two days the president posner wrote reelection which triggered a selloff in assets -- president's narrow reelection, which triggered a selloff in assets. europe's second-largest airline says profits will be hurt by a sharp increase in pension costs. strikes a wave of panic this year. later, we will be speaking to ansa's ceo.- lufth the next generation cruiseship into in two southampton -- southampton. ♪ >> welcome back to "the pulse." we are live on bloomberg television. the federal reserve has ended its third round of quantitative easing. the focus for investors is for when the central bank will increase or have its first interest rate hike. thank you so much for joining us, charles. this was not much of a surprise. >> the surprise was mainly that we were not expecting to see something more on the hawkish side. we were expecting something more neutral or on the dovish side. , we got an upgrade in the labor market assessment. we got a change in some of the other language. they seem to be dismissing the impact on inflation, saying that we know inflation will be weaker, but we are n

in fact, also in the dissent in our wisconsin case judge posner said the came thing. we're going to see voter i.d. back in the supreme court, that what we're going to have is a better record than what we had in the indiana case that said that it was okay. but also, because those cases, the cases that we've brought like wisconsin and texas which the nacp legal defense fund is involved in are also about the voting rights act. so we have a better record and we have judge posner saying that the fraud that wisconsin put forward was a little goofy and paranoid. so there are questions being raised about voter i.d. that are going to change what happened in the supreme court. >> you just brought up the -- when we had the section five so basically when we had clearance so i guess part of what i want to ask about, if what the court is saying is don't make changes this close to an election, you courts don't make changes this close to an election over and above a legislative body but had they not removed the formula that allowed for preclearance, then wouldn't these laws have neve

. >>> let's bring in brian from wells fargo and matrix asset advisers, jordan posner. brian, i will ask you what melissa snarkly asked me. will we reverse for the better in the second half of october? >> it's hard to define where we will be in the next couple of weeks. the market is in digestion period. people have been talking about the volatility in october. but you have to juxtapose is against the prior two months we didn't have a movement in more than 1% in either direction. we're in a phase where the market is trying to get its arms around this decoupling of market growth. on the recovery side, it's been now you've seep places like the u.s. show great strength. you've seen the uk, some changes in monetary posture. and as such, i think that's upsetting the apple cart a bit. >> jordan, are you happy with brian's assessment in that there is such a thing as decoupling at this point? you heard about the concerns of overseas growth and what that could do to the united states and its growth trajectory. are we too complacent about what's going on overseas, not only are we

i went -- thinking of this whole issue, i read richard posner's blistering dissent, which everybody shouldd. he's a conservative. >> reagan appointee. >> he destroys all the arguments folks try to use to defend this. one of the things he says requiring photo i.d. is inif he effect actual against voter fraud, of which there are a few. intimidation, vote buying, tampering with electronic machines. >> they don't seem so worried about those. it's funny. >> i mean, to call this about voteser integrity when you only care about voter i.d. is like saying a horse's tail is a leg. it's silly. like the reverend said about disenfranchising black, brown and poor people. when i think about a poll tax, that this is, it makes me very sad. >> it's sad. that's not politics, left/right, it's whether all people have the right to vote however they want to vote. it was interesting to look at that. we'll keep on the story. >>> up next, the group trying to make it all around easier to vote, wouldn't that be nice, theme of the day, the countdown to the midterms is on. so guys -- it's just you and your honey. the s

posner who wrote the appellate decision in the case would say today that they did not really have enough evidence and the record to understand what the effect of that voter id law would be. all of this obscuring of facts. we go in and out of cases. i am directing you to the texas case that was decided last week and the evidence the judge walked through which you could find on our website. read it. if you disagree, fine, but it is fact and what we need are facts to anchor this conversation about this important issue in our democracy. >> thank you. you have three minutes. thank you. >> you have a decision from a texas judge, but the majority of federal courts have all concluded that voter id is both constitutional and not discriminatory. those want to look at cases, those are federal cases in tennessee, georgia, indiana, arizona and south carolina. let me talk about south carolina. as you all know, the justice department objected to south carolina's voter id law saying it was discriminatory in the voters rights act. a three-judge panel in 2012 through that claim out. they said it was not.

i will posner and say that is one way in which our devices lure as but it is only one of several. >>host: so you're painting a picture of someone behind the wheel giving extraordinary temptation from that device beside them. it might be a computer. it's often a smart phone now. there's a person at the other end, something possibly rewarding and even the idea of taking behind the curtain of a novelty as rewarding. >> guest: before you go on to that let me pause because you said a really important work. he sai of possibly rewarding. i think maybe even some ways my favorite bit of science that i learned in this, the one that really surprised me and honed in on just how powerful these devices are is, that you would think to yourself, well, matt, maggie, or whomever, if i know that a lot of this stuff is spam, and it is, 67% of what we get is spam, at least an e-mail, and i would get conditioned to ignore it because i know it's worthless. going back to your word possibly important, it turns out that the very fact that most of this stuff is worthless makes it even harder to resist the phon
