i want to bring in reverend al sharpton host of msnbc's host of "politics nation" and with the actionrk. you saw the video and what is your reaction to what he had to say? >> as you know, i was involved with this case and worked with the parents of michael brown and still do, and in fact, preached at his funeral so i was there when -- within 48 hours of him being killed and called by the family. the thing, i think, that raises real serious questions about this video being released is that, with all due respect to jay, if everything jay is saying is true, it changes with the public and potentially grand jurors were told that because it establishes that there was some kind of interaction with michael brown and he didn't just walk in that store and just was a thief that the police were pursuing. so even if there was an atteted drug trade as they're saying, even if there was some disagreement, was there a history here that we did not know. he was not a kid that walked into a store unknown, robbed from it and the police were looking for him and when the police found him this encounter happ

. >> that's correct, reverend sharpton.st for the dispatcher is a slap on the face of samaria rice and any person who tries to get justice for police misconduct. it is outrageous, and yet, ms. rice and her family are left with no legal remedies. they weren't involved in the process, they weren't invited into the process, they weren't even heard as part of the hearing by the safety director, the police chief, as to what should occur to ms. hollinger. she was completely excluded from the process, and that really is disgusting. if this is how the system works in the city of cleveland -- and unfortunately, it apparently is -- then the system is broken. >> let me -- >> she was also -- >> go ahead, samaria. >> she was also just disciplined in 2016 for failing to report a 12-year-old -- the 12-year-old was sexually assaulted, and she failed to report that. she was rude and unprofessional. so, i am not understanding how she's still a dispatcher. >> so, she -- because i was going to go there. she was disciplined for not -- failing t

this case there was a combination of older civil right activists involved whether it be reverend sharpton or jackson but also the birth of a lot of young activists like the dream defenders or million hoodies united for justice of people who were not activists and then heard of this story and said i am dedicating my life and time to that. that is similar to the ferguson and baltimore where you had civil rights activists and a lot of young people saying that could have been me. what does it say about the moment we are in seeing young black people as well as people who have been around the block coming together to seek justice for young men who are being slain? >> i think a lot of people have always realized we have not been treated fairly. people are aware it is occurring. now you have police officers that are being charged. you have officers that are going before a grand jury and those things didn't happen before and now they are. it is definitely a move, just a slow move, almost like a turtles move. when you can see a man being shot in the back and you can see this man is running away and

but let me say something real quick, reverend sharpton. i think -- and you know donald trump, as you've pointed out -- i think that he is one of the slickest presidents we've ever had, because jeff sessions was the real topic, the real headline this week. and what donald trump is very capable of doing is switching the narrative from sessions to -- >> oh, no doubt about it. >> -- this discussion, and that i think was planned by him in the wee hours of the morning. >> no, well, i think the one thing that i keep telling people -- i do not think donald trump is in any way not one of the smarter in terms of savvy, in terms of how to deal with media and all, and he's a tough guy. everybody's saying, let's have meetings with him. don't think he's agreed fraid t disagree. but what i think, matt, that aside from the outrageous thing of raising something like president obama ordered my phones tapped without giving evidence, without giving evidence, as outrageous as that is, and as much as i may disagree with his policies and continue to protest and

one of the leaders set to meet with the attorney general is reverend al sharpton. of the national action network and host of msnbc's "politics nation." just touched down in d.c., got in front of a camera and joins me. good to see but >> good to see you aly. >> there are a number of issues you're concerned about. what are you planning in on honing in with him? >> we want to hone in clearly on the aspects of this travel ban in terms of how it can be used to roh file people. there are six of us meeting. our organizations have been on record dealing with racial profiling. this is profiling an area of real concern. we want it deal with the voting rights act. we had the celebration of the 52nd anniversary of going across the edmund pettes bridge that led to the voting rights act in 1956 with the support of the new attorney general when he was in the senate and now said that he will not continue as the department of justice has been doing to support our fight in the texas voter i.d. law case. naacp legal dchbs fund is directly involved in that. police reform he's against

littleazed that so attention is paid to the fact that al sharpton owes the federal government millionsf dollars in taxes. you don't owe millions of dollars in taxes unless you have made millions of dollars in income. the question is, how did this man give in the position to make millions of dollars other than by race hustling? brian: one more tweet. "you will never understand bureaucracies until you understand that for bureaucrats, procedure is everything and outcomes are nothing. if you have been living in a world where outcomes are everything, you may have a hard time understanding bureaucratic thinking or practices." sometimes myi know wife is been amazed by the foolish things done in government. if you understand bureaucracy, it makes perfect sense. i turned mygo, expenses over to the university for reimbursement for a trip. no one questioned the major expenditures, but someone decided i should not be reimbursed for the collision damage cost of renting a car from an agency because stanford has a clause that it covers that and so on. i was so outraged i went to the head of the hoove

[laughs] i mean -- >> bill: the fbi got involved. they did find it out of the surveillance video. this guy, he was credentialed, not only this year, but he stole another jersey. >> he had another jersey. he had a guy's helmet, too. denver broncos helmet. >> bill: von miller. these things are worth money. >> this is interesting. we are not just losing our jobs to mexico but our jersey

yesterday's closed door meeting took place at the justice department and was led by ref rant al sharptonhad concerned about voter rights. >> talking about these issues has to be seen in historic contempt that brings about necessity to continue to fight no matter who or what party is in office to protect the equal rights particularly those discriminated against. >> meeting came on 52 anniversary of bloody sunday which marks clash between poce rights in sessioned hometown of alabama. >> let's look at the stories you're engaging with on social media with the realtime news tracker. >> first up, wiki leaks back at it again leaking thousands of documents apparently taken from the cia. the release appears to provide eye opening look at the intimate details of american's cyber espionage tool kit that includes programs that enable them to spy on you through smart tv or smart phone. quick we leaks has a habitp releasing top secret documents. >> americans may need to give up iphones to have healthcare. lawmakers are getting rid of mandate and americans need sack face and invest no social media. he

amazed at how little attention was paid to the fact al sharpton owes the federal government millions of taxes. in you don't owe millions of dollars in taxes unless you've dollars in s of income. nd the question is, how does this man, you know, ever get into a position to make millions race lars other than by hustling? mr. lamb: one more tweet, you ill never understand bureaucracies until you understand that for bureaucrats, rocedure is everything and outcomes are nothing. if you have living in a world here outcomes are everything, you may have a very hard time understanding bureaucrat or practices. mr. sowell: yes, yes. i know from time to time, my amazed at some of the foolish things that are done by the government. ut if you understand bureaucracy, it makes perfect that -- i'll give you an example. a tripars ago, i went on in which i turned my expenses ver to the university for reimbursement, and no one at the university questioned any of the expenditures, but someone decided that i should not be reimbursed for the collision of renting a car from one of the agencies, because clause

al sharpton, yesterday -- and i am again today, i am floored by this.hat way is a complete twisting of everything that the gospel is about, everything. i don't care -- read the gospel. read the sermon on the mount, and jesus was pretty clear, i am going to separate the goats from the sheep, and those who are going to be with me in heaven and those who will not be in the kingdom of heaven, and so much comes down to how do you treat the least among me, and if you did not feed me or give me water, then you are turning me away. >> that was the mandate of jesus. >> matthew 25. >> did they hear of the good samaritan? the whole story was the guy that would stop and help the poor when people of the same religion and same creed wouldn't. did they ever hear what jesus told the rich man, sell all you have and give it to the poor? this selective use of compassion, and you are responsible for being down and that's your fault, rather than why don't you just get up or do something else -- >> you don't want health care. >> you and i can disagree on how to best serve th

liz: nine msnbc personalities had tax liens against them including al sharpton didn't pay taxes.h the irs for not paying taxes. stuart: this is quite a story. completely changes the focus of political coverage. it is distracting the left away from obamacare reform. ashley: they did it themselves. stuart: did it to themselves. >> may i add because of their desperation, lack of focus, this is about their own personal jihad if you will about getting one individual at any cost, they're more inclined to just not question what it is they're doing and notice what the problems are associated with what they're doing. stuart: headline in the "new york times" that i'm looking at right now, front page, trump in '05 had a writeoff of $100 million. [laughter]. liz: still didn't zero out his taxes. stuart: still didn't zero out his taxes. he still paid 38 million. we'll get to that a little later. it snowed, i think we know this yesterday, it snowed in new york not as much as originally predicted. meteorologists knew their predictions were inaccurate but they chose not to change their forecast.

>> our sharpton, melissa harris perry, total of tween 9 and on twitter i link story that lists all ofow much they owe. that is what is so ironic about this. if they are that interested in tax returns. a lot of people don't know this. if you are a candidate or officeholder, you have to release details financial information on the statement of financial interest. it is far more detailed, gives you far more insight into a person's wealth or lack thereof been a tax return. a tax return is so indecipherable that even the accountant who put it together don't understand it and the irs certainly doesn't. if you want to find out about donald trump's financial entanglements look at his sf i. it has been on public record for two years the day he became a candidate since was they act like the tax returns are going to show something. maria: the white house called msnbc desperate for ratings, they released a statement saying this. you know you're desperate for ratings when you're going to violate the law to push a story about two pages of tax returns from over a decade ago. before being elected pre
