rahm emanuel is the perfect head for that kind of zombie land.a wonderful silly has this politics, it's a shoot out orangey every day. thanks to his gun laws. >> eric: his liberalism. >> kat: when you take a look at a lot of times the left, in this election, they talked about identity politics in these kind of ideologies that people don't care about as much as they care about things like having a job or practical messaging. i certainly think that's part of it. the hollywood-ization, it makes them look disconnected from the middle class. >> eboni: rahm emanuel is a hypocrite and then moment. i was in chicago with my personal -- we took, we went to inner-city schools and talked to teachers, social workers and schools. what is the problem with the students being held back from their full potential due to the public school education in chicago. it is being clogged by that man and not getting to the students who need it. >> eric: this is my hometown, chicago. same problems they had 30 years ago when i was there seem to be popping up again. >> stephen:

it was rahm emanuel. i think he understands politics and messaging very well.in the midwest is not on one of the coastal states were he's cocooned. if the dealing stories out of the house weren't digging up all the oxygen in the room, i think the bigger story would be the democrats six months, seven months after the election are still completely in disarray, they do not have a strong leade leader. they do not have a plan, they are running in all directions. they benefit from all of this trump coverage so they can escape under the radar. >> juan: so kimberly, what you hear which rahm emanuel says, he says democratic values are okay, it's just that middle-class americans aren't hearing it. is he lying or is this real? it's a failure to communicate. >> kimberly: how convenient for him to say they're the ones with the problem, they are not hearing it. the democratic party is perfect. he's not accepting actual responsibility to say that there needs to be transformative change within that party. if you don't take this election as a complete wake-up call, working-clas

cheney took him out of the office and happened with rahm emanuel. they tried to fire rahm four or five times because rahm was constantly pissing everybody off, important people on capitol hill, and rahm just refused to go. just stayed in the office and they finally leon panetta just said, you're not going into the oval without coming through me. >> yes. >> right down here in front. >> chris, i know you have done a great job with describing jack carter -- not jack carter -- jack watson -- they're very close. but he is a very modest man, and -- >> truly is. >> a very young lawyer elm went to plains and he said, mr. carter asked him to come down, jack watson him said, yes, jack, i've been expecting you. so, he knew who jack watson was before he went to plains and then asked him to serve on a very important mission for him, when he was in the governor's office, on the goals to georgia, when he was in the white house, before he was chief of staff, he was the man that was on the phone constantly, talking to the mayors in this country, the governors in thi

please join me to welcome the 55th mayor of chicago the honorable rahm emanuel. [applause] >> i will also say one other book that was influential was dreamland that i also shared with president obama about the opiates and heroin crisis that was a very influential book. i am way behind on my reading because i also have money that i owed to his library. [laughter] by reading a great book now which i recommend to all of you of the events in influencing writing and literature it is also an honor to ruby's year with david mccullough trying to watch general level without hearing his voice is so much of what he has done and talking about the wright brothers and i loved that book in our house we have a summer reading list i have assigned that whitewater is going off to college and she rolled her eyes at me. also '02 introduce the head of the chicago public library is here.

. >> unfortunately they don't under mayor rahm emanuel, he has no idea. know he has reached out to attorney general jeff sessions for some signed of help, help will get there as soon as attorney general sessions who understands crime and understands the need to empower police within th the constitution and the rule to get the city of chicago back under control. this is one of the most heart stopping calls you can hear. i heard these in real-time in my career, this is a grew automatic reminder -- a gruesome reminder how dangerous this job is. we understand that, we're not looking for sympathy, we would like the backing of the political class. that was not happening in chicago. he -- the mayor, threw chicago police deputy under the bus because of laquan mcdaniel situation. he rahm emanuel kept it hidden because of an upcoming election, that is how sick that was. we got rid of that echo chamber in the white house and ag's was on the with eric holder, loretta lynch and former president barack obama who were the maestros in the anti-cop sentiment. liz: tucker

right now it seems like donald trump cares more about what's happening in chicago than rahm emanuel andormer president barack obama. >> kimberly: has said, in fact, president trump has, if we need to we will step in if you can't get the job done, mayor rahm emanuel. so far the grade is a failing grade for rahm. you have discussed this issue and part of what jesse has discussed which is the role of fathers in households and absentee fathers that we have seen in some of these more impoverished or challenged communities. >> without a doubt, kimberly. i do think this is a separate issue from what i have read. this is about gang activity. we have a broader problem in chicago and i might add it's not just chicago. you can look at baltimore, newark, new orleans. and they actually have higher rates of murder per capita. >> you mean republicans have been through with their three guns for everyone? >> greg: talking about the mayors of those cities. >> juan: talking about three gun policy. >> jesse: three gun policy in chicago. >> juan: they have no gun stores in chicago even after the 2014 suprem

what has happened, charles, is the fact that the city mayor, rahm emanuel, and corrupt politicians have concealed carry because they put these costly regulations so folks who really need the concealed carry permits, we're talking about african-americans in these very dangerous neighborhoods, can't even afford to get 'em. so so that's become a major issue, and i think it's one that we have to overcome in order to get people procted so they c defend themselves and lower this murder rate. charles: lawrence, i think the evidence iser repute the foo bl, and yet -- irrefutable, and yet you do have major cities that keep pushing back. >> well, you have them saying that the nra and other organizations are an enemy to our community. the fact of the matter is that black folks in these cities need to be able to defend themselves. you have people with black guns matter who is doing training courses for many people in our communities, you've got the nra that is willing to come into the community and help these citizens get armed, get the necessary training to be able to defend themselves. i think ri

. >> that's his they thought about rahm emanuel national aspirations. i don't know if he still has them but what is interesting to me for everything coming out of chicago there has not then a big stampede of bankle to run against him. this as a at a time the city was going bankrupt and he was overwhelmingly elected against the diverse set of candidates very quickly. so they voted for him because they wanted somebody and i think that is what they got but on cutting funding to schools that was half utilized problem that occurred so when you start closing people's old high-school is they get very upset and this happened in chicago where as well but just to try to tie thehe problem of violence in the streets and the mayor's office is his responsibility to do with this said he is trying on a variety of fronts i have seen some marginal success so far all but stt is lower at this point that was a year ago but it still remains to be seen if that is a stepping stone toward higher office. >>host: as far as their responsibilities are concerned already asking about

he just took them out of that office and it happened with rahm emanuel. they tried to fire rom four or five times because he was constantly ticking people off. rahm emanuel refused to go and he just stayed in that office and finally they said you are not going into the oval without coming through me. >> right down here in front. >> chris i know you have done a great job in describing jack but he is a very modest man. >> he surely is. >> he said yes jack i've been expecting you. so he knew before he went and then he asked him to serve on a very important mission for him when he was in the governor's office. when he was in the white house before he was chief of staff he was the man that was on the phone constantly talking to the mayor's, the governors in this country come the people who really counted. he paved the way for the panama canal treaty and jack watson did that. he would never say that. and i'm supposed to ask a question. jack did you realize how important and how valuable you were at that time? >> i just realized how much i love you. [laughter] [

very important to me to have integrity and tell the truth. , ia gentleman, that even apologize to rahm emanuel for interrupting the president. i don't want to ruin his reputation, but it was almost reaganesque. he said let's continue the discussion on issues and that's what i'm doing. i'm not getting into name-calling. i'm into the situation where we have donald trump as president. i'm really very pleased at the appointments he has made, beginning with mike pence. his vice president, america is so fortunate. by making changes, he is stepping on the toes of very powerful people and powerful people who were bitterly disappointed. they just knew they had won the election. people say we should not be even raising the question why did you lose? that's what the investigation of russia is. why did she lose? she lost because of a ridiculous campaign fo. how would the world do you campaign and not go to a battleground state like wisconsin? democrats should be asking, what kind of campaign was this? what happened to $1.2 billion? if my party had misspent $1.2 billion, i would want to do an inquiry and m

so whether it is fbi, 302s of interview of the president, and rahm emanuel, and about rod about goyavic - -- >> a stroke of the pen. the president or his cabinet secretaries can stop fighting us and release all of the those documents. just like obama released the bush administration's so-called torture memos, he is free to do it and if he did, it would radically alter the media drum meet, they could not ignore these stories. i think that you know extreme transparency is called for. lou: i think that is a wonderful idea. have you put that proposal before the white house in any fashion? >> i have communicated it today on our web site. lou: no, no, come on, i'll tell you, i'll call the white house. >> do. lou: we'll both call, we'll talk about extreme pra tran -- transparency. let me calm down. fbi also. storied agency, i don't to want to contribute to thevision, our fbi has not been successful in its investigation, it has been connectioned on all -- nearly every one of the scandals of the obama era. and never delivered a ru resolution, a report no matter the issue. on its face, clinton fo

the thing is, you have to target it, that is why they go back to people like rahm emanuel, as you referenced006 is what democratic won role. kennedy: those congressional races. >> now remember. kennedy: he saw weakness and eplated. >> he found right candidates to run, at the time were anti-bush, anti-war. kennedy: people who thought that pro-trump people were most vulnerable in 2016, they were note, they were the ones who got elected. >> right. kennedy: i think if -- >> harder. kennedy: nice to see you. >> always. kennedy: this next story, i kennedy: this next story, i is it possible to fat shame a say carl, we have a question about your brokerage fees. fees? what did you have in mind? i don't know. $4.95 per trade? uhhh. and i was wondering if your brokerage offers some sort of guarantee? guarantee? where we can get our fees and commissions back if we're not happy. so can you offer me what schwab is offering? what's with all the questions? ask your broker if they're offering $4.95 online equity trades and a satisfaction guarantee. if you don't like their answer, ask again at schwab. and i'm

lou: let's roll a video of rahm emanuel in chicago where he security up just beferg.ublic safety, the economy. we are watching one of the biggest disasters in public emmyee pension funds. it is a disaster. but he's going to protect illegal immigrants. kimberly: that's his priority. that's his priority. but forget about the rest of the cities and the businesses and the hard-working taxpayers and community that want to be safe there. he's the play book of how to fail fast. lou: there are a few other examples across the countries. kimberly: and who are running those cities. lou: you having fun on "the five"? kimberly: we are having fun. yes, yes, yes. lou: great show. kimberly: thank you. lou: self people have been killed following an explosion at an ariana grande concert in manchester, england. police and witnesses say the singer was not injured. the f.b.i. aware of reports of a possible bombing in manchester, england. that has not been the long wage of law enforcement authorities who are holding just about every detail close to their vest, i guess you could say. stay w

. >> harris: rahm emanuel is inviting this. these people are holding signs saying i'm here. temperature, the tolerance of this is interesting. >> meghan: the most protesting i've seen was over students in arizona. i've never seen anything like it. immigration is always going to be a hot-button issue. i more moderate on this issue. the way to make me hard stances by bragging that you're here and illegal and proud. they say is not quasi-insane to simply comply with the law and he's right. the outrage over this specific issue, i find that they are pushing people like guy and i further and further simply because of the immigration. >> harris: is a huge one up with the violence and it's scary. a city's mayor is trying to put a stop to conservative rallies days after a deadly train attack but organizers say canceling the event would be a free-speech violation violation. we'll debate. >> i believe in the constitution. i believe in liberty and freedom. that's what i believe in think again. this is the new new york. we are building new airports all across the state. new roads and bri

a lot of them are not only don't like trump, they don't like hillary clinton, they don't like rahm emanuel, republicans or democrats. many of them, a lot of them have that message. i leave you can a live picture of the protests that marched down washington street here in chicago. thousands marking may day in a way that, well, they haven't for years in chicago. neil? >> it all started there. jeff block in chicago to washington where protesters are taking protests to a certain president. what do you have for us there? >> they're just making their way to the front lawn of the white house, this march started in downtown d.c. it's a little over a mile to get over here to the front lawn. by my last count, there were 1,000 people making this trek to the white house. we've seen them pick up a bunch more along the way. they're coming here now, this march is only one part of this event or rally today. they have a number of speakers that will address the crowd including dnc chair tom perez. all of them have one goal in mind, to raise their voices against this administration. organizers of this partic

barack obama unveiled the design for the presidential he was joined by his wife and rahm emanuel, his one-time chief of staff. work should be finished in four years. larry: coming up, police officer body camera captures frantic moments after a missing boy falls into a monday. alison: they say rats will draw hawks but that is the simplest part of the crazy situation. we'll explain how it all unfolded. >> what if you had an apartment with a view and someone came up with a i would being next door to block it. for a number of people in southwest washington that is not a hypothetical. i'm sam ford. story is next on abc7 news. prodders, shuckersers, and sniffers, all giant produce is triple checked. we're focusing on fresh... ...so you don't have to guess. my giant. yeah. we love low prices. no bones about it.

. >> mayor rahm emanuel cut the budget leading to layoffs from the south side and west side where the black people live. that's a really odd coincidence. >> why do black and brown parents, educators, why do we always have to fight so hard for what should be given to us 12? >> if we want to talk about violence in our community, we have to talk about the support systems. black lives matter chicago stands firmly on that. thank you. >> because we're here to talk about the violence in chicago. a lot of the parents connected to wlak lack of schools and sch resources with the community. i think they think violence is one thing and schools is another thing. >> people want to individualize it and put it solely on the shooters and gang members. reality is people are connecting the dots. >> i think poverty brings all of these problems. why do you cut our kids down to the bare minimum? we do what we have to do and if we don't push back we will lose this battle and that's why this is an absolute class struggle. >> they were talking and the little boy's telling his brotherer you have art this morni

. >> tucker: chicago mayor rahm emanuel is no stranger to very aggressive politics, so it meant something recently told democrats that simply hating trump won't be enough to reclaim power. they need a winning message too permit watch. >> we don't talk about the middle class -- we believe they are for them, there are certain things we have wandered off from things, being the party that fought for hard-working families. i think we come off and can come off as parties disdainful of them. >> tucker: democrats, the party of the workingmen, the party of the new deal getting called out as unlikable snobs? we truly live in an awed world. nobody knows it better than former virginia senator jim webb. he ran for the democratic nomination last cycle and he's completely castigated democrats abandoning their base. thank you for coming on. >> how are you? >> tucker: i'm great. i'm thinking, i remember that there you are nobody by virginia democrats. you were fairly progressive on the economic questions. more conservative on the cultural questions. pro-second amendment. can you imagine with somebody with

fact, i actually went to one of the white house chiefs of staff one time under president obama, rahm emanuelt petraeus is running for office, be careful, be suspicious, he is setting himself to run in the next election. i politely grabbed rahm and i said, i am not running for the president of the united states. please understand that. i tried truly to be nonpartisan, not just bipartisan. david: what word did he use? gen. petraeus: he used another word. [laughter] gen. petraeus: infantry men have some degree of familiarity with those words. david: let's talk about the world right now and where it stands. what is your view about the importance of nato and what to improve nato. ? gen. petraeus: i agree with my old marine and ship buddy, james mattis, when he said that if nato did not exist, it would have to be invented. it is a hugely important organization. it serves an extraordinary role during the cold war. the wall came down, and it continued to serve an extraordinary role. and i think that it has a new reason for living. you can thank vladimir putin for giving it, you know, a rebirth in so

they don't like democratic mayor rahm emanuel.hey think we need a radical change in government in the u.s., not just one party or the other. that is not everybody. but that is a lot of people out here as well. leave you with this picture, as the march now continues from union park in downtown chicago which was just blocks from where the first may day, big may day day protest took place, the hay market you riot. someone through a bomb in the middle that one. they're still trying to figure out on that one and they were battling for a eight-hour work day back then. $15 minimum wage, president trump's immigration policies. what a day in chicago. melissa: thank you, jeff. how about they need much smaller post. how about that switch, ashley. ashley: wait to wave my flag. dan henninger, deputy editor of "wall street journal" i'm surprised. i thought he would be out there on the streets today. he is also a fox news contributor. thank you, dan, for being here. interesting to you watch protesters with jeff flock. we saw the american flag. w

. >> in 2015, mayor rahm emanuel conduct $200 million from the public school budget.his resulted in 1,400 staff layoffs. where were most of the layoffs? bridgeport? lincoln park? nope, the south side and west side where the black people live. that's like a really odd coincidence. >> why do black and brown parents, educators, students, why do we always have to fight so hard for what should be given to us? >> and we want to talk about violence in our communities, we have to talk about the support systems we have. teachers are our support systems. and that's what we're fighting for, and black lives matter chicago stands firmly on that. thank you. [ applause ] >> the thing i was interested in today, we're here to talk about the violence in chicago. parents connected the lack of schools and lack of school resources directly to the violence. >> that's right. >> i think that's something people don't really think about. they think violence is one thing, schools is another thing. >> that's the problem. people want to individualize it and put it solely on the shooters or gang m

then rahm emanuel came up to me and said we're not doing this here.she said that being friends with her makes her daughter thinks she's cool, but i don't know. i may have pushed it. >> it's a weird confluence, rahm emanuel and ailes all sitting together. >> it was not the washington correspondents one but the d-list one, tv and radio one. it was a crazy combo. i will say i'm amazed at how these washington people sit around and next to each other. >> what do you think his legacy -- ailes' legacy is going to be? >> i think truth fully his legacy is going to be the way he treated women, i really do. especially when you look at the chorus of people backing him up. who wants sean hannity having your back? nobody wants tucker carlson -- i'm not pro botox anymore, but he could use a lot. look, he's scaring my mother. my mother can't hear so well. she watches tucker and she's confused and she turns her head like a cat. it's too much for her. it's too much for her. >> i have to get to the reason that you are here, not just to see me, of course. >> of course i

because he believed in it and fought for it and rahm emanuel and others are saying you're nuts to beoing that. because trump doesn't really have a philosophical underpinning to any of these policies no one really knows what he'll sacrifice. >> creating one more aspect, "the wall street journal" reporting today mr. trump had one or more recording devices that he used to tape phone calls from his office, the three people said. this refers to when he was in business. all former high level employees who worked for mr. trump over three decades. they saw devices in use recording phone calls. michael steele, this a reference to the fact that the president said there might it be recordings of his conversations with comey. how politically difficult is this for the president? >> it's incredibly difficult. one, it opens the possibility that these tapes will be subpoenaed that they will eventually become part of an investigation. two, how is any member of congress going to trust they are talking to the president and the president alone when he's encouraging them to support a policy? this diminis

mayor rahm emanuel's office has not returned request for a comment on this matter. bret? be the last story unfortunately from chicago. thank you. >>> on this mother's day there are many moms whose children are not able to celebrate with them, because they've died. and the growing opioid epidemic sweeping parts of this nation. correspondent bryan llenas on the faces of addiction. >> on january 27th, our beautiful son andrew died from overdose of heroin. he was 23 years old. >> reporter: stephanie oswald is one of a growing number of parents publicly sharing their child's battle with addiction in their obituaries. >> people have to stop seeing it as a dirty little secret because it's everywhere. it's just everywhere, and so the more people who are honest about what's going on out there, the more attention it can get. >> reporter: andrew's addiction after being prescribed oxycodone following an accident. he then began using heroin. her only child died alone in his apartment. >> no parent, no parent should ever have to bury their child. >> reporter: for stephanie, sharing her

then rahm emanuel came up to me and put his hands on my shoulder and said, we're not doing this here.'m still friends with valerie jarrett because she said that being friends with her makes her daughter thinks she's cool, but i don't know. i may have pushed it. >> it's a weird confluence, valerie jarrett, rahm emmanuel and roger ailes all sitting together. >> it was not the washington correspondents one but the d-list one, tv and radio one. it was a crazy combo. i will say i'm amazed at how these washington people sit around and next to each other. >> what do you think his legacy -- ailes' legacy is going to be? >> i think truthfully his legacy is going to be the way he treated women, i really do. especially when you look at the chorus of people backing him up. who wants sean hannity having your back? nobody wants tucker carlson -- i'm not pro botox anymore, but he could use a lot. look, he's scaring my mother. my mother can't hear so well. she watches tucker, and she's confused and she turns her head like a cat. it's too much for her. it's too much for her. >> i have to get to the re

successfully between this term and maybe another one, but if you want to expand the map, follow rahm emanuel's advice in chicago and put away the funny hats and talk to people about what they care about. >> on that note. thank you for a great policy pan panel. thanks very much. there will be a 15-minute break and some refreshments in the courtyard there. have a good rest of the conference. >> i was wondering if your book gave you any thoughts about whether health care is a free market, whether we can solve our problems in health care through free market sources. >> well, i think what we've seen as the answer is probably not. i mean, i -- the beginning of the book, i put a somewhat tongue in cheek list of the economic rules of the dysfunctional health care market, where if you think of health occasion as a -- purely a business proposition that the market will solve, you know, you get to crazy places like, you know, a lifetime of treatment is preferable to a cure. i am not saying for a second that anyone really thinks that, but that is where market forces put you right now. >> watch "after words

there is a caricature of rahm emanuel off to the right. won which obviously, as you can make out, these people would just like to have a full up revolution. so, the protests go. it is may day in chicago. the birth day of all of this, i would point out, and it is going strong at this hour. neil? neil: now, the cause, i know to go after donald trump and big fans of his, this again started on worker conditions and all of that, i also, the plight of illegals and, many in the gay community not feeling accepted under this administration. bush, do you hear when they're protesting any cause over another? >> well, no, dick durbin addressed the crowd over here. i don't know if i see the senator. we may not all agree on everything. i think that is absolutely true. so, no, i don't i think there is one over another. this is, kind of a great coming together of all of the, all of those things that you outlined. this is just an opportunity to really, and i think donald trump is crystallized that kind of opposition with, what that leads to, i don't know. c

systems outside of what this administration tells us we should or even local politicians like rahm emanuel these things. >> and yet, phillip, you have headlines like this, jury convicts woman who laughed at jeff sessions during a senate hearing. convicted of disorderly conduct after disrupting sessions' confirmation hearing by laughing when a senator said sessions had an extensive record of treating all americans equally under the law. you can focus on the local law but you have the potential for a vindictive judiciary to do whatever they want, in this administration, literally do whatever they want. >> there's not really a solve for this without a broad electoral politics. there are moments where even in the face of that where brock turner gets a couple of months and someone can get a year for laughing at the attorney general. there's still the ability to reshape the fundamental reality at the local level that allows us to scale up. charlene was talking about budgets. i had a conversation with the police chief that was stunning for me recently where he said i want to have less money. i ha

don't ask chicago mayor rahm emanuel. >> you are asking something that we're not even first through the question is. >> why not? >> it's not a good question. jillian: clinton has to decide if it's in her heart to run again. and illegal i will grant students attending ivy league school now want free healthcare. the undocumented students initiative at columbia university posting a list of demands on facebook passenger. they also want sensitivity training for all staff members, guaranteed housing, and scholarships for other illegal immigrants. no comment from the university. abby? abby: all right. thank you, jillian. "the washington post typing a another so-called bombshell and this time about the president's son-in-law. the headline you ambassador wanted kushner secret channel with the kremlin. if back channeling was such a crime was the outrage when president obama did the very same thing? joining us now to rasmussen reports amy home good morning to you. >> thank you. has been memorial day. abby: we talk about back channels. there is precedent with this most recently with obama. >> middl

. >> as the debate over immigration policy rages on nationwide, chicago mayor rahm emanuel is not backingn, even with threats from the trump administration to pull federal funding from sanctuary cities like chicago. emanuel says part of the reason why is that immigrants are true job creators. >> don't tell me you're pro-small business but you're anti-immigrant. inconsistent. they don't work together. i don't think it's in the interests of the city to be threatened. i'd rather have a partnership with the federal government. but no mayor could ever back away from the values of tolerance, openness, and opportunity. >> and for good reason the kauffman foundation does point out that nearly one-third of all new businesses in this country were created by non-american citizens. so immigrant entrepreneurs last year alone and in chicago in this metro area there are 110,000 small business entrepreneurs in this city alone guys. pretty stunning fact. back over to you. >> okay. thank you for that report, kate. we're going to have a lot more on the state of small business when we hear from sba administr
