we know people vote with chuck schumer -- we know he will vote with chuck schumer because he is already bought and paid for by chuck schumer. >> the next question is related to tax cuts. americans benefited from tax cuts but those have contributed to increases in the federal deficit. how concerned are you about our national debt and what measures will you support to cut the deficit. >> the tax cuts. way that was handled as a perfect example of the dysfunction in washington. the idea of tax reform was a great idea. what happened when it got to the congress was the hard part. the reform got put aside and the tax cuts is what went forward. you have to do both sides of that equation to make it work and not drive the deficit up. $1.5tax cut program adds trillion to the national debt. there are ways of addressing that. about theked recently idea of holding spending constant. do not try to reduce it. let the revenues grow into that. that would take about six years to get back to zero. it isdo not try to reduce it. something possible to do if the congress has a willingness to make it happen. >>

chuck schumer spends more. when it comes to dealing with health care and our rural hospitals i want patient-centered health care that is going to focus on that. i want to secure the borders and build the wall. he calls that political theater so there are some differences between us. you have heard a little bit about us and where i come from in my background. i grew up on a farm went to college on a 4-h club scholarship. chuck and i have two children, two grandchildren. we have worked in williamson county to make it a great committee. served in the state senate and lead that fight against the state income tax and it was not protesters are with tennessee and standing up for their right to be safe. a majority of tennesseans agree with that. now i'm running for the u.s. senate to take your values to washington. i'm asking for your vote. >> two minutes governor. >> i have come into this and i still have a high school civics a few of my country. i think we have a brilliantly designed government. i think our governmen

schumer, durbin, cantwell, and it's strategy of judges. in addition, you can see timing of hearings, the consensus is to make priscilla owen, a nominee to the circuit court, the big fight to july 18th. miguel estrada will be difficult to defeat given the sparseness of his record. next, another one, july 18th. priscilla owen again, miguel estrada again, they have a real hate on for estrada. you are about to find out why in a moment. senator leahy took the important first step of asking for memorandthat estrada produced working at the solicitor general's office. unfortunately the department refused to turn over the memos. that is the historic position of the department of justice, the solicitor's office advocates on behalf of the federal government and federal work product, it's not turned over to the united states senate during a confirmation process. next. you can see april 17, 2007, elaine, elaine jones, would like the committee to hold off. now first of all, before we go on, look who's in the meetings, elaine jones of the naacp legal def

senator schumer announced his position on this nomination early, but if you've been listening to the speeches given by senator mcconnell from the start you know where he's been he says he's looking forward to hearing the testimony on thursday, more clearly he's made up his mind before he hears that testimony. so to fault senator schumer for taking a position on this nomination early, he's ignoring the obvious, so did senator mcconnell. i will say at this point that we face an awesome responsibility, a nation divided politically, a nation where people have strong, strong feelings on both sides and an effort to find the truth. i don't know what the legal standard is for this hearing. we certainly know when it comes to criminal law, the matter of probable cause which leads to investigation and prosecution, and beyond a reasonable doubt to prove the guilt of someone. we know on the civil side there are different standards. no one has quite spelled out what our standard of proof is, but this much i know, no one, not any single american is entitled to a seat on the supreme court. they've g

here is minority leader schumer. >> i think the allegations of professor ford are extremely credible. she took a lie detector test. she talked about this with her therapist, family counseling, because of what happened to her five years ago and told the details and third, to come out and say something like this puts you and your family through incredible scrutiny, people throw brick bats at you and everything else, she didn't do it on a whim, i don't think she did it for political reasons. she has a great deal of credibility. >> laura: oh, well, no one knows anything about this yet apparently, she hasn't testified, but chuck schumer is supremely confident. the very idea schumer or anyone else will be able to get to the bottom of a 36-year-old allegation is ludicrous. and chuck, as you know, lie detectors aren't admissible in court for a reason. lindsey graham made a point earlier today, it is odd she decided to take a lie detector test, she wanted to remain anonymous. hmm. the fact is, no way to ensure brett kavanaugh will receive due process here because allegations such as this, they

did chuck schumer fail? >> schumer has a huge mountain to claim he may not able to. but democrats are probably judging him on a different standard. he's been steam rolled by senator grassley and mitch mcconnell over the last 2 1/2 years. they cheated. they blocked a confirmation hearing for merrick garland. they changed the rules to get kneel gorsuch in. and they are not seeing hundreds of thousands of documents before this confirmation process is completed. this is how democratic activists are looking at this. where are you, chuck schumer? kennedy: the left is upset because chuck schumer told some of those red state democrats in the senatorial fight of their lives to keep their powder dry. >> to be sure, i think a lot of the base of the democratic party, i don't think they grasp how all this works and they are confused about why the senate blocked the merrick garland nomination. the reason is voters put republicans in charge of the senate and the senate is schmoesed to be the one to confirm the nominee. kennedy: like democrats will have that power. >> and they will

urgency from schumer and others reflects the far-reaching implications of this nomination. if kavanaugh reaches the bench, conservatives will outnumber liberals on the court, likely altering lots of aspects of every day life in america for a generation. democrats say kavanaugh's commitment to roe v. wade is too flimsy, and his view of executive power is too tilted toward the president. but whatever bruises kavanaugh takes in his hearing, it probably won't change the math. democrats are outnumbered on the committee and also in the full senate. his confirmation depends more on two republicans than anything democrats can say or do. cnn's joan biskupic joins me now. you've been covering fights like this for a long time. you know the court as well as anybody. senators are going to try to cover a lot of ground this week. what big issues are you hearing from your sources they're going to focus most on? >> thanks, dana. you're right. this is legacy making. we're about to start one of the most important weeks with huge consequences for decades for the supreme court. i would put them

the very idea schumer or anyone is going to be able to get to the bottom of a 36-year-old allegation is ludicrous. and chuck, as you know, lie detectors aren't admissible in court for a reason. lindsey graham made a point by the way, earlier today, he said, it's a little odd that she even decided to take a lie detector test and wanted to remain anonymous. huh. the fact is, no way to ensure brett kavanaugh will receive due process here because allegations such as this, they should have been examined in any of the six f.b.i. background checks that brett kavanaugh underwent, but instead, this was dropped less than a week before his committee vote and as such, a lot of reasonable people can conclude that this is all part of a political hit job, a well orchestrated olinski-ite maneuver trying to cause maximum damage to kavanaugh, president trump, and the mid-term election for the republicans, put maximum political pressure, especially people like corker or flake. they are not running for re-election, what are they supposed to do? anita hill this weekend dropped a statement designed to ins

schumer: madam president, i ask unanimous consent the quorum be dispensed with. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. schumer: now, madam president, moments ago anothers serious allegation of sexual misconduct against judge kavanaugh was made public in a sworn affidavit. there are now multiple credible, serious and corroborated allegations against judge kavanaugh made under the penalty of perjury. the new affidavit by plaza swetnick -- by mrs. swetnick calls for a detailed investigation done by our f.b.i. professionals as do the allegations made by other women. but currently there is only a

that is coming from chuck schumer. the hearing should be delayed.r part of valor would be for the the to step aside. what do you think of that? >> a horrible precedent to set, if that is the standard just being accused, that you throw it out, for the record, no corroborating evidence. with dr. ford more people come on the record, penalty of perjury swine sworn statements to the senate committee kavanaugh wasn't there. this didn't happen. you have no corroborating evidence in that case. you certainly don't have any evidence in, you know a drinking party in a yale dorm room for the second one and, i mean how are we going to get corroborating evidence of this so-called gang train rape thing? i don't know how you prove that, or disprove that either. so there is going to be no evidence. but just on the basis that you throw these allegations you throw them all at him, you have to step down which is their playbook from the beginning. they don't want the seat to be filled. they want it delayed after at election. look, i don't think the republicans should le

here is senator chuck schumer. >> leader mcconnell owes an apology to dr.labeling her allegation as a smear job and he should apologize to her immediately. >> within the last hour, we have learned a lot more about precise format of thursday's hearing. first off, there will be opening statements from top republicans and democrats on the committee. then the accuser, florida, willg give an opening statement with no time limit, followed by a five minute round of questions atfor each senator, as well as judge, and kavanaugh. they will be able to turn over questioning to an outside fema counsel if they want to. >> sean: kristin fisher in the washington bureau tonight. joining us now is chief counsel for judicial crisis network, harry severino, and, by the way i got the first copy, "why we fight." thank you for my copy. you are a patriot, and this is an important issue. you have been through these fights. you watched robert bork, they won. watched clarence thomas went through and the powerful statement he made. went on to be one of our best justices in modern time

well, chuck schumer is local about this. chuck schumer's vocal about everything.ruth is brett kavanaugh has already produced 80 times more documents than justice so to mayor produce. he produced four times more documents than any nominee in history and the most important documents have been public all along. those are the 300 opinions he's authored from the second most important court in the country over the past 12 years and 13 of those opinions have been vindicated by the supreme court and unparalleled record of endorsement for lower court judge. cheryl: senate judiciary said the majority of staff has not completed their review of each and every one of these pages, but i want to listen to what senator richard durbin had to say on fox news sunday about the idea maybe they are trying to protect capital-- cavanaugh. >> the assertion of executive privilege by the white house to take 100,000 documents obtained the american people will not get a chance to see them as they reflect on brett kavanaugh's background is the first time in history this denial of access to doc

chuck schumer led the call. at one point the atmosphere in the hearing is so chaotic, so absolutely unhinged by the left that kavanaugh's daughters were rushed out of the room. of course these kinds of disruptive tactics is nothing new, sarah sanders, secretary nielsen run out of restaurants, ivanka trump harassed on an airplane, and betsy devos chased down a street, florida attorney general pam bondi threatened with physical violence just to name a few. one republican senator even referred to the hearing as being overwhelmed by mob rule. this is what is at stake in 63 days, take a look. >> i have not been in as many confirmation hearings as some of my colleagues, but this is the first confirmation hearing for a supreme court justice that i've seen basically according to mob rule. >> sean: all of this over who is a well-qualified judge with an incredible and impeccable record, and remember that judges must be confirmed based on the ginsberg standard, 1993, ruth bader ginsburg's confirmation making the case that

chuck schumer said we are witnessing a friday night document massacre.dent trump hiding judge kavanaugh's records from the american. you is unprecedented and has all the makings of a cover-up. so i want to go here, the it would house is citing executive privilege to with hold the 100,000 pages. how does that fit juxtaposed to president george w. bush, advising his attorneys to release kavanaugh's documents and err on the side of transparency and disclosure. >> this is exactly the process that the executive order president obama come 10 plates for presidential records it's exactly the way it's to proceed with the former president doing the initial review and the current president make the call. contrary to schumers's outrageous rhetoric, this is not unprecedented. the same thing happened on john roberts record and senator schumer protested that. on elena kagan they are documents were never obtained. and senate documents never produced the documents from her time working as a special staffer working for senator biden. everyone recognizes that there are pri

brett kavanaugh has two senators to thank, harry reid and chuck schumer. they got the filibuster for judicial appointment votes, no matter what democrats do, the republicans have the votes on the floor and what you are seeing here democrats are not really trying to take down brett kavanaugh because they don't have the votes but they are using it for some other purpose whether appealing for their base or some people using it to establish a platform. >> the democrats took down the filibuster down to 51 for lower court nominees. it was republicans who decided they would do it for the supreme court as well and that got as neil gorsuch and possibly brett cavanagh. we will watch again tomorrow. thank you very much, good to see you. 13 progressive group stepping up criticism of chuck schumer. the liberal coalition says his efforts to stop brett kavanaugh are failing. that may be why chuck schumer failed to agree to a request from mitch mcconnell to allow the senate judiciary committee to continue meeting beyond the 2 hour limit while the senate is in session and

there is nothing kavanaugh can say which will convince chuck schumer to vote for him and i think that ford as no evidence other than her own word, which is going to count -- they can't provide any witnesses and and can't even provide to the best of my knowledge, what was the date, where was the house, and at what point is the burden of common sense on the accuser, and if it's a burden of common sense, this hearing wouldn't even be held. it's only in the current hyper environment in which senator r can say, men can just shut up. i mean, what has happened to america when random left-wing totalitarians think they can violate private property, trespass and a restaurant, go in and intimidate a citizen who is simply trying to have dinner, and they think they are heroes. apparently, the police are called and nobody is arrested for trespass and no one is arrested for intimidation. we are watching. where, what we ought to understand is, this is about raw power. if the left can stop cavanaugh, we will not get another conservative justice in our lifetime on the supreme court. >> sean: if you tal

schumer and leahy have said that's the gold standard. hopefully they will cast their vote for judge kavanaugh. >> shannon. >> let's bring in john cornyn a member of the judiciary committee. thank you for your time. if every republican votes for him brett kavanaugh is a supreme court justice. do you have any reason to believe this will not happen? >> well, i look at what happened with judge gorsuch. he got 54 votes in a bipartisan basis. i expect judge kavanaugh to get a similar vote. somewhere in that same range. >> if that's the case murcowski and collins vote in favor? >> i respect their right to make that announcement themselves. they've been considering the nominee. visiting with him in person. in the end i predict they will be satisfied but i'll leave them up to them to make that announcement. >> cory booker said something far more suggestionive. he said anyone supporting this nomination will be complicit in evil. >> it sounds to me like a presidential campaign in 2020. but i think there will be a contest here for the most ridiculou

we told you about chuck schumer invoking a 2:00 p.m.a means of keeping this hearing going on maybe for days, weeks, who knows. now signs from judge napolitano it's evaporating on its own. what are you hearing? what's the significance of this? >> the senate has a rule which says no committee can meet beyond 2:00 in the afternoon while the senate is in session unless both the majority leader and minority leader consent. senator mcconnell, the majority leader, asked for the consent of senator schumer. he said i deny my consent. then the word went to the judiciary committee, you have to stop meeting at 2:00. then wily old senator mcconnell, the majority leader, pulled a fast one and said guess what, we will adjourn the senate which allows the senate judiciary committee to keep hearing. so the kavanaugh hearing will continue but there will be no action on the floor of the senate. the only substantial action they took today was the swearing-in of former and now senator kyl to replace the late john mccain representing arizona. neil: it seems l

remember what chuck schumer said? the intel community will get you six ways from sunday. i hate to say it, i think he's right. and breitbart has obtained footage of tech giant google and their first company-wide meeting after the 2016 presidential election. all our fears have been confirmed. the people of google to test the president you elected and everybody who voted for him. you are going to see this video for yourself. it we are now also 55 days away from one of the most important midterms in your life. we will show you how the tactics of the left are beyond out-of-control, full of lies, and we do have a lot of good news for republicans and information they should be using to win in 55 days. sit tight and, buckle up, it's time for tonight's breaking news, multi-prolonged opening monologue. ♪ it is now a full-blown psychosis. it is a psychological level of enhancement i've never seen. trump derangement syndrome, out-of-control. if your dog bites, if the bee stings, the baby cries and you're feeling sad, it's all president trump's fault. if you literally cures cancer th

. >> bret: here is the senate minority leader chuck schumer on this woman's credibility. >> i believele. a lot of my republican friends don't. what are they afraid of? are they afraid she might be very persuasive? well, if she is, it's a whole different ballgame, isn't it? >> bret: chris, i mentioned with jonathan turley earlier if it goes down this road and the nomination is pulled, will democrats start impeachment on judge kavanaugh because if he is not eligible as a -- as they believe a sexual assault perpetrator for the supreme court how is he eligible for the second highest court in the land. >> i'm sure they would there is a serious consideration for democrats here that i don't think they have wrapped their brains and depletely. if they did succeed in getting the kavanaugh down and there is a vacancy on election day and joe marchen and clair mccaskill will say come on, schumer, you are not helping us here. nobody more than those red state democrats wants this nomination complete, done and moved on if this linger overs it has political consequences for them. >> bret: does this op

senate minority leader chuck schumer calls the decision a friday night document massacre. democrats claim republicans are trying to force through kavanaugh's nomination without the proper scrutiny. let's go to cnn white house correspondent boris sanchez. boris, what is the reason why the white house is withholding by way of executive privilege withholding this 100,000 pages of documents? >> hey there. the trump administration citing constitutional privilege for withholding these 100,000 or so pages worth of documents related to brett kavanaugh's time as an attorney at the white house under president george w. bush. william burk the attorney charged with reviewing these documents sent a letter to chuck grassley friday night explaining the review process for these 660,000 plus documents. in that letter he explains his rationale and says former president bush reepds out to him asking him to be as transparent as possible. well as you saw there in that statement from minority leader chuck schumer, democrats do not feel this has been a transparent process at all. he referred to

chuck schumer. we're band to where we were as a matter of custom for 200 and some odd years down to the 2000 election which is you don't filibuster nominees on the executive calendar. so i'm comfortable with where we are. that is the way we operated when i first got to the senate before they started routinely filibustering nominations. i think a majority is appropriate for the executive calendar, including judges. >> now the antics we've watched this week have led some to observe that the body is as polarized as its ever been and do you agree with that because you have a lot of years here that relations between the two sides of the aisle are at their nader. >> it is a difference between putting on an act in a committee hearing room and how you act on the senate floor. there is no lack of collegiateality in the senate but what the democrats are doing is putting up a good front, knowing they're going to lose and trying to convince their left wing base which is demanding of them something they can't de

and they are voting for crying chuck schumer. whereas your incredible senator, dean heller, is going to be with us all the time. come on up here, dean. come on up here, dean. >> laura: we will get back to the rally in just a moment as it senator heller takes the stage. but first, new york senator kristen gillibrand seemingly revealing the game that it is not so much about justice, but more of a political equation for the democrats. >> she told a friend a year ago, she told a reporter before doctor dr. cavanagh was ever named. these are the hallmarks of someone who wants to be believed because she fears that if this person is confirmed, he will do care terrible things for american women. >> laura: but as i have often noticed, women's are not stupid. they are not politically monolithic, they have brains of their own, and they are also mothers to sons, wives to husbands, and sisters to brothers. check out this new poll. according to a "huffington post" survey, men are more likely than women to believe ford's allegation. the panel is

schumer and pelosi, they have bigger things.ough they were a favorable wall, ask israel whether or not her wall works? it works. by the way, speaking of israel, the embassy is now open and happily living in jerusalem. [applause] [applause] it would've been 25 years before it was built. you know the story, right our great ambassador, david friedman a successful lawyer in new york close israel wanted to be the ambassador. i put them there. people were pressing for israel and for jerusalem to be the capital went to move the embassy. what happened is that every president said were going to do it, they campaigned and then they live. when it was obvious to people i wanted to do it, i was called by virtually every leader in the world, people were calling me and said please tone to it, please tone to it and i got a little bit tired of trying to be nice. so the last week i just didn't take the calls set ali will call them back in a week. kings, queens, presidents, prime ministers, dictators, that's why the other presidents did to it. nev

schumer tweeting republicans know this has been the least transparent process in history and the hearingsould be delayed until we can fully review brett kavanaugh's records, pushing back this statement from the department of justice, the volume, depth and breadth of production of his document surpass the smaller and narrower productions for previous nominees. 440,000 documents are produced in comparison to 180,000 for neil gorsuch as judiciary committee chairman chuck grassley had this to say. >> you are hearing from a lot of people that can't find anything wrong with the qualifications of brett kavanaugh. many democrats and before they he was nominated they would vote against anybody on that list so the bottom line is how much more do you need to know? >> reporter: republicans will point to his career as an appellate judgment democrats will grill him on a number of hot button issues, abortion and the future of roe versus wade and executive power, democrats worry he will protect donald trump from the russia probe and a number of senators could affect the outcome, republicans, lisa murkows

that's pelosi/schumer. it's a vote for more taxes. seriously. it's a vote for more taxes, more crime, and more onerous regulation, which stops everything from happening. you know, we cut regulations more than any administration in the history of our country, and i did it in less than two years. [cheers and applause] and it's one of the reasons that you have all of those jobs. it's one of the reasons you can go out and look for another job if you're not happy because everybody wants to hire you and you're getting higher wages for the first time in 21 years. the new platform of the democrat party is radical socialism and open borders. [boos] and i won't allow the united states of america to become the next venezuela. that's what they want to do.

but i don't think schumer will let any democrat make the 50th vote.g to all kick off about two hours from right now in the room where chuck grassley is sitting. senator, thank you very much. good luck to you today. >> glad to be with you. steve: all right. 7:20 now here in new york city. remember when a california democrat wanted to boycott in-n-out burger because the fast food chain donated to california republicans? our next guest is now offering the restaurant a new home, an alabama state senator here to make his pitch coming up next f ♪ with safelite, you can see exactly when we'll be there. saving you time for what you love most. >> kids: whoa! >> kids vo: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace ♪ steve: time now for news by the numbers on this tuesday morning. first, 16, that's how old you may soon have to be to vote in colorado. only 16. in november the city of golden colorado will vote on whether to lower the minimum voting age from 18. if passed, the teenagers could vote or local candidates and issues. next, 20%. that's the reported drop in immig

schumer: dr. ford has made an exceptionally specific allegation, one she made years ago, i think six years ago to a family therapist long before judge kavanaugh was nominated for the supreme court. she volunteered to take a lie detector test which she passed. judge kavanaugh meanwhile has, quote, categorically and unequivocally denied the entire story. there's no wiggle room in that denial. he didn't say i didn't remember. it is a whole and complete denial. someone is not telling the truth. someone is not telling the truth. now, here's what president trump said, quoted in bob woodward's book about sexual assault allegations. president trump said, quote, you've got to deny, deny, deny and push back on these women. if you admit to anything and any culpability, then you're dead. you've got to be strong. you've got to be aggressive. you've got to push back hard. you've got to deny anything that's said about you. never admit. so the question looms. is judge kavanaugh taking a page from president trump'

we know is that there was a coordinated effort, chuck schumer orchestrated this, mr. blumenthal can say all he wants, if you talk about tainted, you talk about senators who said before president even nominated his nominee for this position, they would note vote t vote that is tainted. i am voting no because i am a democrat and i don't like this. he knows what -- they know who this is, they know he is a brilliant legal mind, they know they can do nothing about it but watch the process and pitch a fit, i commend mitch mcconnell, and chairman grassley for moving forward, not giving in to temper tantrum today. liz: let's get to next case, tech executives heading to capitol hill this week, starting tomorrow with senate intelligence committee chase book ceo, twitter, and google executive on hot see th seat bee lawmakers this week. those stocks today, facebook down more than 2%, and twitter and google ending lower, shares of snap, touching an all-time low. congressman, here is the thing, we know that the democrats need 23 seats to retake control of the house. the cook report

chuck schumer invoked this and mitch mcconnell counter punched.et as long as the senate was out. they determined that the brett kavanaugh was more important. kavanaugh picked up a new supporter. john kyle the republican senator from arizona. sworn in the successor to john mccain. he will support kavanaugh. the balance of power right now. 33 republicans are yay's and 28 democratic nos. the democrat from hawaii came out against kavanaugh. more protests and disruptions in the hearing today. more than 50 disruptions. if you are charged with disrupting congress you get charged $50. they take you out. you can come back in. if they arrest you again they will take you out for a couple of days and make bail and appear before a judge. >> shannon: thank you very much. last august santa rosea california police officers had his wife with him when they ran into a homeless woman. she called and asked if they would adopt her baby. they were honored. they are our midnight heros and that birth mother too. good night from washington. i am shannon bream. ah, mr. blac

senate minority leader chuck schumer called it absurd, tweeting, not a single senator will be able to review these records before tomorrow. >> but a twitter account for republican senator chuck grassley, chairman of the senate judiciary committee, responded to senator schumer saying his team reviewed all 42,000 pages and is ready for today's hearing. anne-marie? >> laura podesta here in new york, thank you. >>> no comment from attorney general jeff sessions about president trump's latest twitter attack. this time mr. trump suggested the justice department should consider political consequences when making its decisions. the president tweeted yesterday that the justice department had put the republican control of the house in jeopardy by indicting two republican congressmen. two easy wins now in doubt because there is not enough time. good job, jeff. well, mr. trump is referring to representative duncan hunter, charged with misuse of campaign funds, and chris collins, who's charged with insider trading. the president's tweets did draw a harsh rebuke from representative senator ben sass

schumer: madam president, over the last -- over the past few days, new allegations have come to light about president trump's nominee to the supreme court, brett kavanaugh. these allegations ought to be treated with the utmost graffiti. the allegations are extremely credible. they were made by someone who voluntarily submitted to a lie detector test and had been discussed in the past, long before kavanaugh's nomination to the supreme court with a family therapist. i believe her. many, many, many americans believe her. many, many women in america who have been taken advantage of certainly believe her. for too long women have made serious allegations of abuse and have been ignored or dragged through the mud. it would be a disgrace if this body and our fellow republicans let that happen. chairman grassley must postpone the vote on judge kavanaugh's nomination until, at a very minimum, these serious and credible allegations are thoroughly investigated. the f.b.i. conducted a background check on judge kavanaugh before these allegations were known. the f.b.i. when they did their background
