(laughter) >> care to expand on that? >> i don't see why i have to, it's self-evident. >> why? because sheldon adelson's money and power help harry reid. the koch brothers don't. >> did you say the effect the money has on harry reid det

what sheldon is saying is untrue. >> sheldon just does not want it hurting his business.e are gaming online, they do not need to go to the casino. >> most of his business is overseas. i'm not sure if it will hurt his business. arere you really saying you concerned, are people wealthy and secure enough to be gambling? if you see who is sitting at those slot machines, #give me a break. [laughter] trish, what is the controversy with the ferris wheel? what is that all about? >> it's not a controversy. caesars is trying to bring people back to the middle of the strip. you have mgm dominating one end, steve wynn dominating the other. how do you get people into the middle? they came up with an idea for a 550 foot tall ferris wheel, the largest one on the world. i did go on it. >> let's take a listen. >> we try to solve a specific problem. we are asking our guests to come 1200 feet. to get people to walk 1200 feet to something, you've got to have an attraction. it has to move a lot of people, it has to be open every day, and be attractive all hours of the day. it cannot just be a

oh, right, sheldon adelson.s only have selective billionaire outrage. they're only mad at the billionaires that they're not pals with. they're missing the idea that we're allowing oligarchs, i don't care if they're liberal or conservative, whether it's bloomberg on guns or the koch brothers and regulations, you look at all of this and you say to yourself should the power to decide what issues we're debating lie in the hands of three or four people in american politics and that's what's corrosive in these systems. >> republicans are more concerned about democrats that spend a lot of money and vice versa. >> chuck captured it, deciding what we talk about and how we decide these issues. the fact that we've got harry reid who all of a sudden now doesn't have a problem with sheldon adelson but before was screaming holy hell about the guy, along with the koch brothers, is just such a disingenuous load of crap -- >> well, that's one way of putting it. >> that is one way of putting it. >> harry reid, at least he was ver

-- sheldon adelson.e coming up on 26 minutes past the hour. that means bloomberg television is on the market. alix steel is standing by with details. >> let's get you caught up on where markets are trading. are seeing stocks pulling back from their earlier rally. the dow jones industrial at one point actually hit an all-time record high, but now only 0.2%. driven by a reversal in tech stocks into negative territory. a couple of actions we want to highlight. the first is, discovery a 50-50 joint venture with libya media to buy all thee medias, which produces tv programming. it has a deal valued at $900 million. both companies are contributing $150 million and will continue to operate under its current name and executive team. tesla also watching today, because shares of the electric car are tumbling after first-quarter deliveries trailed estimates. tesla has delivered nearly 6500 cars, but a constraint on battery supplies actually prevented it from shipping more. we are watching the markets rolling over,

sheldon adelson is like the seventh or eighth. as though he's a pauper. >> extremely wealthy people here. if he lived in let's say, connecticut, harry reid might feel differently about him. he is someone sheldon adelson a huge donor, you have to figure out how to work with and get along with and where his interests are. if the koch brothers were based in nevada, i'm not sure he would be as negative about them as he is. >> he is also representing the other gaming interests in nevada besides adelson. >> absolutely. >> i want to talk about the clintons also. chuck, you asked harry reid whether he welcomes democratic primaries and you might is expected he would climb on the ready for hillary bandwagon but not quite. >> everybody knows i love the clintons and i don't need to say more, including chelsea. >> do you want her to be the nominee? do you think there should be a healthy primary process? >> i'm not -- where do i think primaries are healthy? >> don't think they are good for democrats. >> for everybody. >> why go to all the troub

. >> i know sheldon add elson. he's not in this to make money. he's in it because he has certain ideological views. sheldon addal son's social views are in keep being the democrats on choigs, other kinds of things. he's not in it to make money. >> the headline above the fold in today's "washington post" suggests that sheldon add elson is benefiting from his donations. the casino mogul has donated to groups around the country. the post reports many are siding with him to try to outlaw online gambling. you can see more on that when chuck joins us this morning on "morning joe." >>> turning our attention to business. the doubt and s&p rose while the nasdaq was in red. cnbc's steve sedgwick is live with us. good morning. >> good day. one notable exception is whole foods. their shares fell best of 20%, everyone else muscling in on the organic food market. yellen speaking today should be the second part of that. the nerves were soothed that the fed would become -- also keep an eye on weekly jobless figures. we've had barclay's job cuts, the latest inves

sheldon adelson says this is exploiting the poor.here is no evidence that the people gaming online or any richer or poorer than those gaming in the casino in atlantic city, and there is some argument that says it is harder for someone that is poor to gamble online. you have to fund your account with a credit card or a bank account. you cannot cash your welfare check and then run down and play with cash. >> so, what you seen so far? who is actually online gambling so far? >> well, what is nice about online gambling is it is a different customer than the one that comes to atlantic city. it is certainly more casual customer. they play shorter amount of time. they play less frequently. not are people that are really interested in committing the time and effort to make the trip to atlantic city. it is a nice group of people that want to gamble online, but not as committed as the gambler that wants to drive all the way to town. >> why hasn't gotten off to such a slow start? -- why has it gotten off to such a slow start? >> it is a little s

sheldon adelson is not in it to make money p. >> sheldon adelson is from nevada. back with the panel. what's going on with senator reid? he's saying a lot of different things on the floor and now this interview. with the koch brothers, the democratic party has its own billionaires who are secretly funneling money into campaigns in ways that maybe we should be cleaning up, and to take on the koch brothers is purely a political move that lacks credibility. when he's talking about adelson, there's one reason, the casinos there. >> charles? >> harry reid's pronouncement should be transcribed and all made into s.a.t. questions in which the question ask, can you spot the number of inaccuracies in one paragraph? the koch brothers, the two richest people, that's not true. to say they are the main cause of global warming is insane. the united states as a country is one of the major causes of global warming, in fact our contribution has declined. the biggest cut in the world since 2006 has been the united states. our levels of co2 emissions are now at the 1992 level. so you

the always outspoken sheldon coulson joins us now -- sheldon adelson joins us now.much money lobbying against online gaming. he's the king of gambling. >> the irony. maybe the hypocrisy as well. we are making rounds on the las vegas strip are for something like that. he has come out -- you know sheldon adelson. he is the republican donor who spent $100 million to try to put mitt romney into the white house in 2012. now he is putting that money to ban online gambling. he says it's a moral obligation he feels on his part because he says once gambling goes online, is going to exploit poor people. first --ay for you >> coming from the business, i want to make money from those who can afford it. i can't tell over the internet who is underage. i can't tell who has financial difficulties. is not gamingho responsibly. i can't tell if money is being laundered. >> how much are you willing to spend to stop online gambling? >> whatever it takes. there is a lot of -- i know you are looking at me like, come on. there are business reasons why he does not want this to happen. he do

>> seems like everyone sees the hypocrisy except for sheldon adelson. he says he wants to do the right thing. he says he is the 11th richest in the world but he wants to stop the exploitation of the poor. that is what he calls online gaming, which is legalized in three states. he is willing to put his money behind this the same way he has put it behind mitt romney in 2012. >> i want to make money from those who can afford it. i can't tell over the internet who is underaged. i can't tell who has financial difficulties. i can't tell who is not gaming responsibly. i can't tell if money is being laundered. i can in the casino. >> how much are you willing to spend? >> whatever it takes. >> one thing he is not seeing which is the rise of social media, you can't tell who is online. we talked about money. he has gone up and down in his fortune. he said he is not interested in leaving a legacy behind. he is interested in what is happening now. >> i don't want to build a dynasty. a friend of mine says he only cares about the faces he can see. so in three generati

you had one-on-one time with sheldon adelson.he republicans. >> yes, kingmaker in las vegas and among republicans, wants to put a republican in the white house in 2016. he has built his fortune on gambling, right? that there is a line for sheldon adelson. he says the line is online gambling. he wants to put a stop to any kind of growth in that market. >> why don't we legalize prostitution? is happening all over the place anyway. why don't we legalize drug addiction? it is happening all over the place anyway. wherever we can control it, we should control it. i'm saying coming from the business, i want to make money from those who can't afford it. i cannot tell over the internet who is underage. i cannot tell who has financial difficulties. who is not gaming responsibly. money is beingf laundered. i can in the casino. >> how much are you willing to spend to stop online gambling? >> what ever it takes. said $100 point he million. he was basically saying whatever it takes, that is what i am going to do. part of it is he is trying to

so sheldon adelson, don't pick on him.ells buzzfeed, quote, i can't praise adelson. i just said on social issues, he's good. we can speculate who is my favorite billionaire. but the point is there's too much money in politics. >> let's bring in chuck todd right now. it's fascinating to me that the democrats have harry reid running the united states senate. you go back to the campaign, he talked about romney. yes, he did discuss romney. last hour when john heilemann brought it up that he told a lie or suggested incorrectly that mitt romney hadn't paid taxes in ten years. it was a lie. he kept repeating it. and now he calls the koch brothers the richest people in the world. biggest polluters. he's back tracking now on sheldon adelson. when we've got the tape. it just seems -- i don't see why the democrats have this guy running the senate. >> in some ways you can see why democrats i think some secretly like harry reid is willing to do those things. look at yesterday's story. there are a lot of democrats who think what karl ro

so sheldon adelson, don't pick on him. he's not in it to make money. the koch brothers are in this -- >> you believe they're in this for personal profit? >> yes, yes. i've talked about it, i've used their name on the floor for a long time. university of massachusetts determined they're one of the worst polluters in america. they pollute more than exxon, johnson electric, dow chemical and on and on. they are in it to make money. anything that affects their bottom line, they oppose it. they have warned republicans you do anything that's green, we will oppose you. how's that? >> so what do we do with the system? i know you're supportive of the constitutional amendment that tom udall it talking about and the -- but the supreme court has said you can go crazy with disclosure. mitch mcconnell was a big fan of disclosure in 1999. and for better or worse, mitch mcconnell's predictions on mccain-feingold have turned out to be true. why not say raise limits and disclosure and bring the money into the system? >> let's talk about what we tried to do. we friday whe

they're on the verge of taking over our democracy on the idea that somebody like sheldon aid ellison could advertise he is going to back a candidate and command individual audiences at his house, with half of the republican field tells you right now that we are on the verge of losing our democracy. aid ellison is not doing that because he has personal interest in the race, he wants to be sure his business interests are backed by the republican presidential candidate. that's what's happening with him, with the koch brothers. it is time we had debate on the senate floor, if not to pass the amendment to wake folks up as to what's happening. >> here are numbers to bear out what you're saying, that dark money is off the charts, between 2006 and 2012, this is on track to be the darkest money election in history, and every election is going to get more like this, unless something changes legally or constitutionally. what about the idea it is unfair or improper to go after what mitch mcconnell calls private citizens. the koch brothers or sheldon aid ellison haven't run for office, aren't sub

. >> sheldon, the owner of biggest casino company, this guys spent millions to fight on line gamblingtens of millions fighting organize the labor. he gave $90 million to republican candidates. >> sheldon, don't pick on him. >> i'm sorry, don't pick on him. >> he's not in this for money. he's in it because he has certain ideological views. >> that's kienled of what we do every day on "the five." >> but see how inconsistent he is. what is he talking about? >> what he's talking about is a guy that is a big nevada figure who is a friend of his and who probably has gotten some favors from him and he's not about to -- >> he's a hip owe -- krit. >> what's the difference between steyer who is a democrat supporter and the koch brothers? >> how do i begin to count the ways? steyer did not underwrite virtually every right wing group like the koch brothers did. >> when the history of this period is written, when we are long dead and gone, the chapter about the battle over the billionaires and who could get who in their corner, will not be a pretty one. >> that case that probably is not far down t

they got, drumroll please, they got their own missouri version of the koch brothers or their own sheldon adelson, their own art pope. once missouri said, anybody could spend anything they wanted on missouri politics, think got their own homegrown missouri zillionaire who thought the rules should be remade in their image. we have these zillionaire guys, some of them operating national politics, some operating in their home state, but the one that missouri got, he turns out to be a doozy. >> you know what, there was a column written, and i hope i don't offend anyone, but a published column who was a farmer judge in missouri. he now owns and writes for a newspaper in central missouri called the unterrified democrat. what a name. and it's is osage county, missouri. and he starts off and it's something like this. he said, a long time ago, decades ago, the ku klux klan got together and said, how can we really hurt the african-american children, permanently? how can we ruin their lives? and when they designed was the public school system. >> that man's name is rex sinqufield, he's the conservat

could it be the desire to protect the poker industry which one big fish is sheldon addleson? make you go, hmm. for answers, let's talk to a big kahuna of poker, the author of many books about the poker world. including "straight flush" killing the online poker party, now out in paperback. welcome, ben. >> thank you. >> an article just out talking about making your case about why online poker should be legal. do you find it absurd that it's not? >> it's completely hypocritical. you can buy scratch tickets at any supermarket in the country pretty much. the lottery is everywhere. you can online and bet your entire stock on a market. casino owners, you know, i understand why they're against it. but if you're allowed to walk into a casino and play poker, you should be allowed to play in your house. i think online poker should be legal. but it has to be regulated. you can't have kids playing poker. just like a kid can't walk into a casino. you have to have more regulations. overall, i think it's hypocritical that it's not around. >> i sat next to you at dinner in boston. >> yes, i

but it is not just sheldon edelson. probably even more significantly when we talk about the impact of citizens united and we talk about the flood of money coming from the billionaire class into the political process, it's important to talk about the koch brothers. i understand there has been a lot of criticism of majority leader reid because he has talked about the koch brothers, but i think the majority leader is exactly right. the issue here is not personal. i don't know if the koch brothers are nice guys or not nice guys. that's not the issue. the issue is the impact this billionaire family, the second wealthiest family in america, is having on the political process, and second of all and even more importantly, what do they stand for? who are they? why are they pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into the political process? i have a problem, to tell you the truth, whether somebody is a right winger or a left winger, i have a real problem with these rich guys spending huge sums of money. but at the end of the day
