scott mcgrew, though, leads the coverage for us. scott? >> well, good morning to you, laura, just after 6:00. things are going to start to move very quickly now. yesterday afternoon, facebook set a price for the shares that would sell insiders at $38. and we should point out, laura, that's exactly what you predicted. those shares were purchased, that's technically the ipo right there. and then this morning, this young man wearing a shirt and tie at least in this video will ring the nasdaq marketplace's opening bell. really it's an electronic chime and launch the trading day. that's all ceremonial. 7:00 a.m. our time, that's the earliest you can buy shares of facebook. as we look at a live picture of the nasdaq looking east on time square welcoming the facebook to the nasdaq. securities and exchange commission does clear the stock to trade under the symbol at fb at 7:00 a.m. our time. and because the nasdaq is an electronic trading system, we do expect that to happen fairly quickly. it takes a while for the market makers to meet each other,

rick scott is the n new katherine harris. democrats are mounting a new defense against a massive voter suppression effort in florida. i'll talk to the congressman leading the effort. congressman mike coffman is now changing his excuse for attacking the president. >> i misspoke and apologize. >> scott walker is going national to survive his recall. mr. barrett joins me tonight. >> good to have you with us. thanks for watching. president bush famously asked the question, are our children learning? mitt romney, are we making enough money off them? mitt romney visits a charter school about success of for profit education. >> i'm told about the success of these institutions you helped found and this institution in particular and would love to get your privilege on what makes it work. >> there are real questions about whether charter schools are working including the one romney visited today. the universal blu ford charter school in philadelphia was put on warning status last year. only 27% proficient in math and 22% proficient in

scott realized he had a problem. because he could not run for this election knowing the people of this state would know we lost the most jobs of any state in the country so he brought his key political appointees together and said we need a different measurement so they brought a measurement out 20 days before this election. 20 days before this election and had t.v. commercials running four hours later saying let's use this set of numbers instead. those numbers have never been ver tied and verified and if we were to believe his numbers the bureau would have had the largest discrepancy ever. it's clear what's going on. he can't defend his record on jobs so they tried out these numbers that are not used for this ordinarily and they put tens of millions of dollars behind them trying to convince the people of the state that we've created jobs when in fact the state has lost jobs. >> well, paul the answer is simple. the facts are the facts. our reforms are putting more people to work. the monthly numbers that we originall

convention and scott has said no r. and c. attendees should be able to protect themselves from occupiers but tampa has also passed a law making it illegal for occupiers to carry weapons like six inches a stream or squirt guns so is the n.r.a. going to be setting up a table at occupy tampa to arm the occupiers and just consider that question for a moment could the n.r.a. be set up a table to arm the occupiers even the question shows how stupid polarized and politicized the gun issue has become in america is the time to focus on the rights of the unarmed rather than just the armed male as very joins me from miami is a conservative commentator host of talk show truth for america and author of the book conscientious equity welcome back hey tom thanks for having me thanks for joining us we hear all this bluster about protecting the rights of gun owners what about the rights of non gun owners to feel safe. well when we protect the rights of gun owners we're protecting everybody's right now and so this is tom governor scott got it ri

scott walker started this political civil war. i will end this civil war. >> governor walker. >> bob, to answer your questions it's about reforms. that's the way it started out. we don't hear about it largely because our reforms are working. that's great news not only for homeowners, for small business owners but particularly for people on fixed incomes, senior citizens and working families. our state has $154 million surplus. for the first time we've put two consecutive years with money in the rainy day fund. best of all in 2011 wisconsin gained jobs. the mayor and his allies talk about a job number that was based on a sample of 3.5% of employers. our numbers are based on a survey of 160,000 employers. that's more than 96% of employers in the state of wisconsin who are required by law to submit that information. they showed that last year wisconsin gained jobs since i've taken afs we've had more than 30,000 new jobs in the state. i understand why things have shifted. if you look at my record and compare that with our opponent the

scott, give us an idea as far as the excitement out there. >> reporter: there's a lot of it, scott. you know, the silicon valley as you know is known for starting early in the day. but there's been a lot of traffic coming in to facebook. this is not a day that any of the employees want to miss. after all, like you mentioned, the nasdaq is coming out to our neck of the woods. a bell ringing where ceo mark zuckerberg will open the exchange, a lot of people want to be here for that. in fact, a lot of facebook employees arrived last night to sleep over so they wouldn't miss this. facebook called it a hackathon, a chance to keep focus on what facebook does for a living, i.e., building out a social network and not worry about the ipo and stock prices and things like that. that said, there is a lot of buzz around here, not just on this campus, but in the entire community about the facebook ipo. the company as of last night because it priced its shares at $38 each, pulling in nearly $16 billion in overall sales. that is money that can go to hire more people, build more buildings, try to exp

scott thompson was entrusted to turn around the web giant hired as ceo in january as scott mentioned four months later. he is on his way out after this resume debacle. it came to light that he has one of the two degrees that are listed on his resume. folks we talked to in the community this morning are not surprised that thompson stepped down. >> back in the days when the ceo made 20 times the average working man's salary, but now he's making 400 or more times the average man's salary, that's unreal. and to pad your resume to get that position is unconscionable. so, yeah, he should step down. >> all the way up the line, even politicians these days. you know. it's kind of sad, but you know, maybe this will make people actually strive to earn their positions, maybe we'll get better turnouts. >> reporter: the big question this morning is how will this all turn out for yahoo? now here's some food for thought. if a new ceo takes over before september, it will mark the third yahoo ceo in less than a year. live in sunnyvale, "today in the bay." >>> pg & e executives could face more accounta

scott walker has raised $13.2 million so far this year.$4.4 million has come from within the badger state. two-thirds of walker's total haul came from out of state donors. not all of walker's cash is going toward his recall campaign. he transferred $60,000 to his criminal defense fund which was created to pay for his lawyers in the ongoing john doe investigation surrounding walker's time as milwaukee county executive. he's shelled out $230,000 to law firms since january. it's amazing. scott walker, he can go around the country raising millions of dollars. what does it say about the bent of his donors that they keep giving him money even though he's paying defense lawyers hundreds of thousands of dollars? amazing. going to be fun five weeks from tonight. i'm joined by kathleen falk. she's the former county executive and democratic candidate for governor. good to have you with us tonight. what is chris christie's impact on this election especially after his state just lost 6,000, 11,600 jobs in the month of march? >> it only reinforces out o

scott says we could be seeing this in america. scott? >> brenda, look, it's a real scare.hrough something similar in 2008 by the way, europe really didn't have, so it makes sense it's rolling over there now, but it's a vote and two things, one a vote on the economy and people get scared take the money and run and it's a vote on the government and that's a difference here we saw in 2008. the government will come in and save us. the fdic via other purposes. the government is over in europe and the citizens have no faith in them and taking the money out and the government even though we don't like government involvement. is going to save us. >> and gary b. you feel safe, don't you? >> i do. actually, and in fact, the more the countries overseas will call not just european countries. the more troubles they have. i think the more secure we've become because we are the default safe haven in the world. and i'm not worried, and scott mentioned the fdic. look, i suppose it's a 1% chance there's a run on our banks and i highly doubt it. in other words, i'm not worried. >> yeah, but

we're concerned about the breaks for big oil that scott brown voted for.he most profitable companies on the planet -- >> he's definitely been a country clubber for wall streeters. there's two clear different directions between scott brown and where elizabeth warren would take the citizens of massachusetts. great to have you with us tonight. massachusetts state senator. lots more coming up. stay with us. we're right back. >>> felonies, guilty pleas and over a thousands e-mails showing tax dollars used for walkers campaign. >> scott barrett his walker on his john doe investigation. house democrats want walker to explain the divide and conquer video. we'll have latest from the badger state. >>> what does that make her? it makes her a slut. >> limbaugh's disturbing excellents about sandra fluke is coming back to haunt him those surprising little things she does still make you take notice. there are a million reasons why. but your erectile dysfunction that could be a question of blood flow. cialis for daily use helps you be ready anytime the moment's right. you

wisconsin will pick a challenger for scott walker. tom barrett has a slight lead over the other components. kathleen falk and state kathleen. scott walker and the republicans haven't wasted any time. they haven't waited until the primaries are over to start pumping money into tv ads. since the beginning of the year, $18 million has been spent on political television ads in wisconsin. in 78% of that money was spent by republicans and hold it right there, yes the numbers are astonishing. every time scott walker gets interviewed over on fox news and everywhere else, he's always complaining about union bosses coming in from out of state that are trying to get rid of him when he and his party and his people are the ones spending all the freaking money. 78% of the $18 million has been spent by walker. republicans are spending an unbelievable amount of money on a gubernatorial election. they know what is at stake. they know this will have national ramifications. the latest polls out of wisconsin show that money can only take scott walker so

scott -- taylor had about 5,000 troops. and at some point -- and he didn't have that many scouts either. he really didn't know santa ana was coming until he was almost there. but one of his officers had chosen buena vista as a good battleground because it was kind of boxed in a little bit by the mountains. there were ravines that cut it up, it looked like an area that was defensible. and so they chose that as the battle ground, the place they would fight santa ana. and he crossed this high desert in the late winter and lost about 2,000, 3,000 men crossing it. desertions and then they just died along the way. and they got to buena vista, and they were, they were out of food. he told them they would fight, they would beat the americans, and they would get their food supplies. that was their incentive. so the battle began. now, santa ana was not a good tactician. he could have won that battle probably if he had done what napoleon always said to do; bring the great brunt of forces to bear on fragments of the army. what he tried

scott driving in the go-ahead run. there's ken rosenthal. you know, i personally don't think ken rosenthal is that much of a nerd. i don't know why they have to use that phrase in relation to ken. ken, i'm just kidding, you know that. >> ken: dick, my family thinks i'm a nerd. it's okay. i'm all good. >> dick: joe maddon, he couldn't wait. he paid homage to you, having his entire team wear bow ties. he knows how much you've done for charity in that respect. 1-0 the count to luke scott. and the throw actually hit zobrist and bounded away. not far enough for an advance. luke scott, who was hit by the pitch in the ninth inning, which set off the dugouts clearing, and then delivering a single, knocking in the go-ahead run in the seventh to give the rays a 2-1 lead. 2-0 now to scott. >> brian: rich hill is struggling with the straight zone right now. he's got that crossfire action, trying to spray that fastball away from luke scott. that's after walking ben zobrist. there's aceves. talking about andrew bailey, the red sox traded an outfielder, th

the democrats are slamming scott walker with this commercial. >> scott walker said there was no money, but gave a billion dollars to big corporations. >> he just took that money and gave it away. >> he concealed his plan to destroy workers rights. >> he lied about what he was going to do. >> now he won't come clean. top aids accused of crimes, corruption trials, deception and division. unless we replace scott walker, nothing will change. >> republicans are resorting to the same old dirty tricks. think progress is texting out the phone number of tom barrett's campaign headquarters and the text read, tom barrett is a union puppet who will give union thugs every think they want. call and ask why. they flooded his campaign office today. they couldn't get a lot done. joining me tonight is wisconsin good to have you with us. the polls are moving. this is closer than it was a week ago. it's well within the margin of error between these two gentlemen despite a 25 to 1 advantage in funding as far as scott walker is concerned. it's now down to who gets their people out. how confident are you th

scott walker -- six of his aids have been charged or convicted already.iend has been charged. his own spokesman has been immunized. and we have a governor who can't answer the question truthfully, hey, governor, are you being charged with a crime? he won't say yes or no. so he has got to go before the grand jury, i fear. >> yeah and you make a good point about the whole sarah palin factor, because if scott walker wins -- let me give this to you alex, if he ekes out a win does that make him a hero to anybody who hates collective bargains for public sector unions, we have heard it said before on fox, maybe even a possible vp candidate? >> i think it's fair to say he is already a hero in the conservative movement regardless of how the recall effort goes, a lot of them have long thought that collective bargaining rights are a big problem and the fact that he -- you know upon taking office, rescinded them already makes him a hero and if he wins the recall election, that just boosts his stature that much more and we'll see a lot of him between now and november.

scott brown's vote on financial aid.e to pay in interest. >> i don't disagree with that, but the fact is that she is, i guess, trailing a little bit in the polls, it's very close, within a margin, but this is an issue they continue to push and this is the issue that the brown campaign puts out on tv. and the point i'm making is that senator richard blumenthal of connecticut made misstatements about his service in vietnam, he came out, had a press conference with the veterans, he cleared the air, and he won the race. >> it's a very different situation than what happened with blumenthal. elizabeth warren has been very clear. this is what she was taught from the time she was a small girl, that she has native american relatives. and it's been demonstrated by some of the research that has been done that, in fact, there are records that support that claim. but it is a waste of our time as taxpayers, as voters in massachusetts, to be focused on the generation's past in elizabeth warren's family. the issues that matter to us her

i was seeing how much you have been attacked by scott walker. that might have helped you in this democratic runoff. >> they obviously had single me out early on. they tried to keep me out of the race. he has raised $25 million to buy $1 million. the most recent poll shows me with a one-point lead over scott walker. he can get all of his out of state money. it seems to have no impact, but our challenge is to get out there in the last 27 games and get our message across. we will not be able to fix wisconsin as long as god walker is president . we invite them to take a look at it. this will be a wild and crazy 27 days. >> are you going to compete against the money? >> i think that people of wisconsin are starting to understand what is calling on. the sitting governor has to raise 60 to 70% from out of state and have a criminal defense fund. that raises a lot of questions. this is from a governor who has presided over a state who has lost more jobs than any other state in the country. he has divided the state, and people understand that. what i woul

>> reporter: scott, the c.e.o. of j.p. morgan chase, jamie dimon, held a surprise conference call this afternoon to announce the bank had lost about $2 billion in just the past six weeks because of bad bets in credit derivatives, the same financial instruments that played a key role in the financial crisis. "this one we would put in the egregious category," dimon conceded on that call. the bank, the nation's biggest by asset, could face another billion dollars in losses due to market volatility. dimon acknowledged it could get worse. this could go on for a little bit. it's a big black eye for chase, which has been considered one of the country's best-run banks under dimon-- one of the few, scott, to emerge from the financial crisis with its reputation intact. >> pelley: this is late breaking, but is there any indication at this point that other banks might be in trouble? >> reporter: on that conference call, dimon was asked that very question point blank. he said not that he's aware of. in his words, "just because we were

scott realized he had a problem. he had a problem because he could not run for this election knowing that the people of this state would know that we lost the most jobs of any state in the country. so he brought his key political appointees together and said we need to have a different measurement. and so they brought a measurement out 20 days before this election. 20 days before this election and the tv commercials running four hours later saying let's use this set of numbers instead. those numbers have never been verified. and he knows they couldn't be verified. as a result of that if we were to believe his numbers, the bureau of labor statistics would have had the largest discrepancy it has ever had. the largest mistake ever. it's clear what's going on. he can't defend his record on jobs so they trot out these numbers that are not used for this fashion ordinarily and they put tens of millions of dollars behind them in commercials trying to convince the people of the state that we created jobs when, in fact, the st

now scott thompson was appointed ceo in january. he was hired to turn around the struggling web giant. and in early april, he executed a plan to reduce yahoo's 14,000 employees by 2,000. he's now become one of those casualties after his recent resume debacle. yahoo saying thompson will step down effective immediately after it came to light his resume was padded with two degrees. one in accounting, another in computer science. turns out thompson only has an accounting degree. one man said thompson had no other choice. >> back in the days when a ceo made 20 times the average working man salary, that's fine, but when he's making 400 or more times the average man's salary, that's just unreal. and to pad your resume to get that position is unconscionable. so, yeah, he should step down. >> reporter: in thompson's place, the board has appointed ross levinson interim ceo. until now he was the global media head. now beyond the ceo shake-up, five members of the board of directors have also resigned. so there's a whole lot more to this story.
