than one official on more than one occasion and often is a part of actual testimony to the united states congress. the officials who served four years as the justice department of the tortilla criminal surveillance recently told the "wall street journal" what he really thinks about this. he said, a federal attorney, and

general of the united states not once, but twice, broke these rules, that are supposed to guide his behavior in these instances and lied about it under oath to the united states congress and the president said what about that? he said, well let's get together and promise we are not going to do that again. but there's a scandal there, why did they break their own rules. why were we misled, why did the attorney general go under oath and tell the united states congress that he had never been involved in case like he was involved in, not once, but twice, the associated press and fox news. >> and let me -- goes for the same for the benghazi families, was that a phony scandal, or terry -- our agents are killed, that is phony? i don't think it's phony, do you. >> let's take benghazi for a moment, let's listen to what the president said, here is what we know, he said, americans dpied in benghazi, what we know is that they were clearly not in a position where they were protected and i pledge to the american people that we would find out what happened, what -- we would make sure it does not happen again and we would make sure that we held accountable those that perpetuated this

>> there are a lot of champions of bipartisanship in the united states congress. the real challenges today and why it is so good to be on a show like this is you do have almost ideological television ofch certainly drives much the thinking in this country it was picks up by the special interest groups and dry some of the financial support. i think what a lot of us are trying to do, and you will see we have not had an energy bill on the floor since 2006. that was before we made .remendous progress in solar i think you will see a lot of centers pick up on the need to beat bipartisan. we are looking at some major ways to strengthen the program, hold down costs by focusing on chronic care. i think you'll see a number of programs that focus on what the country really wants, which is problem solving. you have to be bipartisan. on the other side of the arld, recently they approved package to the rebellion in syria that is said to include weapons. i am wondering if you support that measure in the committee and whether you think it will do enough to really make any kind of

just the right because there is a great deal of opposition inside the united states and there is you know even inside the congress there is a great concern about where this will lead to and whether or not it will lead to a regional war or something even wider if the united states goes forward with it plan its plans to achieve its objective which is overthrowing the government and surveyor. president obama's foreign policies including his stance on the syrian conflict event and harsh criticism from one irish politician is a guest in today's episode instead of our interview show worlds apart. that we ask is this person calling for the hypocrites of the century award because we have to call takings by their right names and the reality is that by any serious examination this man is a war criminal the war in syria that sparking a very passionate speech is also being waged on to the flow guns of democracy as it is being aided by the countries who consider themselves to be democratic but how is that democracy bad that the authoritarian fest and that president assad has with regard to many of the use that are being put o

whatever the army has to do it the solution to that is the political president obama and the united states congress they're responsible for keeping people in prison they're going to animo i the man they said they wanted to release all men that they say they want to put on trial and we need to see action and we need to constantly look and ask the president and the congress what's happening why they're not acting whenever we're talking about guantanamo yes now we have clifford slow now who's in new and who are responsible for closing guantanamo if the prison is closed where will all the inmates end up. well you know first of all we have to get these eighty six cleared men out of guantanamo and back to their home countries or to other countries if that needs to be arranged now two thirds of these men are from yemen and we're still waiting for an arrangement that says look if you clear prisoners and say they're going to leave you can't then turn around and say oh but we think yemen is not safe send these people home then we are left with eighty prisoners now the united states has said that forty six of

the congressional black caucus is leading on this issue in the united states congress but we have -- with chairman fudge. we we are not going to reach representatives in state beyond the states that are presently covered and to emphasize something that most people don't tout. there is a bail out, even though general holder is bringing forward a bail in. over 200 jurisdictions have bailed out. so it is not a punitive initiative. it is to protect the right to vote. general holder is on solid ground. i think he has indicated he's in an emergency. he's got a crisis. and when there is a crisis, when there is a disaster, then congress steps in to provide -- i hope -- guided, thoughtful legislation that will fix the problem and put back in place the enforcement provisions of the voting rights act which will also provide preclearance. that is a very vital tool that you're able to step in the gap before something disastrous happens to keep americans from voting. >> joy, the question of congress is an interesting one and certainly we'll be monitoring it. yesterday in iowa rand paul said nobody

before heel pulls the trigger on the nuclear option, all 100 senators of the united states congress meetrivately tonight to try to reach a compromise for one last time. it remains to be seen of the civilities of days past can bridge the partisanship and obstructionism of today. everybody on the republican side keeps saying it wasn't like this in the old days. back in the old days things happened in congress. doesn't it seem like this is one of the ways we can make our senate and our congress slightly functional? >> absolutely. at this point who would care if the senate was killed? tho they're not doing anything that anyone likes. senator reid talked about their low approval ratings. it is not that the quantity of filibuster is presented but the reason these nominations are being blocked. they didn't to create a consumer financial protection bureau so they won't confirm a director. they don't believe there should be labor laws in the united states so they won't confirm a labor relations board. any ti-- nominees have been rejected before by both parties but you have a have a system where t

as a member of the south county house of representatives or being eye electricity to the united states congress -- being elected to the united states congress, i've used as my foundation the lessons that i've learned from my mentor and my mother. during my time here in the senate, i will focus on a few key issues, including education, economic empowerment and controlling our spending addiction. as a small business owner over the last 15 years, i can tell you firsthand that our tax code is broken. but the highest corporate tax -- with the highest corporate tax rate in all the world and the taxing of small and family-owned businesses at an alarming rate, we will continue to produce a slow-growth economy. and the regulatory nightmare facing our small business owners today is only worsened by the unaffordable care act, as my good friend, congressman kusinich said yesterday. further, with over 70,000 pages of new regulations in the last five years, the compliance costs for small businesses is staggering. we do not simply need a delay in the employer mandate. we need a repeal of the employer mandate.

and it happened in the united states congress. and sadly, that wasn't the end of hatred toward immigration in the united states congress. mr. president, 12 years ago i introduced a bill called the dream act. the dream act was a response to a constituent case in my office. a young woman, a korean woman, in chicago called our office. she had a story to tell. she said that she had brought her daughter at the age of 2 from korea to the united states, to chicago on a visitor's visa. along with her husband. and they envisioned that her husband would open a church, and they looked forward to that day and it never happened. and her husband continued to pray for that miracle for their family, but the mother said i had to go to work. the mother went to work in a dry cleaning establishment in chicago, and if you've been to that wonderful city you know the majority of dry cleaning establishments of run by korean families, hardworking people who work 12 hours a day and don't think twice about doing it. this woman went to work but she wasn't mak

and we, the elected leaders of the united states congress -- this is not some little club, we are the congress of the united states of america. the most powerful nation on this planet. and we can take care of all of the people that are poor children in rural areas that i represent. and i will never turn my back on them. i will never turn my back on children in the urban core. mr. speaker, i object to this bill because this bill is not just going to create tension among us, but the people of this country who depend on us. they depend on us. it's not going to go to an alternative body to redress their concerns. if we are about anything, it is about trying to take care of these people. that's why we are here. i suffer from vertigo, and the only way i can stop from wiggling around and fainting when i get dizzy is to keep my eyes on something that doesn't move. i get frustrated and dizzy being in this body. and the only way i can stand up and keep my eyes on something that doesn't move. and the thing that does not move are the people of the united states, particularly those who are hurting

joining me now representative karen bass and my representative in the united states congress, she hase a lot of work on this issue and sponsored the student loan fairness act. she comes to us from los angeles. welcome inside "the war room"," senator bass. >> thank you, thank you for having me on. >> michael: thank you for all the work you're doing on this issue. it's an issue under the radar because of so much that is going on in the country because of immigration edward snowden egypt, everything, i want to thank you for sponsoring the bill for student loans. tell us how it would help. >> sure. first of all it would freeze the interest rates at what it is now, and it would allow students if it they pay their loans back for ten years then their loan would be forgiven up to $45,000. so it also says that a student would only have to spend 10% of their discretionary income because you know, some students now are paying more than 50% of what they earn for their student loans which is why one reason a number of students can't move out on their own. this does not impact just individuals or f

so that you don't need congress, the united states congress to do that. just do it at the state level. you call a convention. when you see me doing this, it means article 5. we get an amendment and you get money out of politics and you take back the democracy. when i tell you that it sounds overwhelming. how can we fight back against the money that the koch brothers, sheldon adelson etc. well, it's a little simpler than you think. it's one step at a time. i'm going to bring on two guys who will tell you how we've done that in texas and new york. they're part of a group called wolf pac. i founded wolf pac. i don't run it day-to-day but i did. the reason why i did is because i think we can take back our democracy. we're in different places, and texas of all places we had one of our first victories. in january of this year there was a rally called texans united to amend to get money out of the politician. two people you're going to hear speaking is. >> goldman sachs and the koch brothers is the problem. for others, it doesn't matter whether the money comes f

they may have been the best informed in the entire united states congress.you should ask those people that i believe i said is not true, what do they think is true? what's their number? how would they describe 80% to 90% of the illegal drugs that come into america? where do they think they come from? they come from or through mexico. >> the difference from the past this time, his own party is closing ranks against him. self-policing hateful rhetoric is not the same as legislating real reform. who knows if that will ever happen. self-policing is a positive step toward getting something done and having a better dialogue. and toward saving, incidentally, the republican party from itself. joining us now is nbc news producer kasie hunt. thanks for being here. >> thanks for having me, ezra. >> this seems like a big deal. you've seen a little bit of it popping up before. on this particular issue republicans do seem to be policing the rhetoric and scared of the image they're putting forward when folks like steve king speak out like that. >> the secret here is even t

but actually madison and monroe branigin teacher for the united states congress and the district had been carved to favor james monroe. madison decided to contest it and in the upset he beat monroe who of course was a friend of his and stayed a friend and succeeded him as president. so, this is quite an interesting book. and it contends because madison won that election got the bill of rights. otherwise maybe we wouldn't have gotten it because madison was a great champion. so there are a lot of consequences. it is not a well-known piece of virginia history but it's a critical piece of the virginia history and it's a book i looked very much forward to reading this summer. >> let us know what you are reading this summer. tweet on booktv, posted on our facebook page or e-mail us. booktv in london continues with justin webb come the author of three nonfiction books the most recent titled "cheers, america: how an englishman learned to love america" he's also a former television journalist for the bbc where he served several years as the washington bureau chief. his current position is hos

> here's what i say to you as a mother of two black sons and as someone who is now in the united states congress, serving there for a while. what i find most frustrating is what we have seen is incarceration go up at the same time that crime is going down, yet the fear level is still stoked, even though what we have is objectively less murders every year. we have less crime. we are living in a safer society and we are putting more people in prison. >> you know, we have not dealt with the structural issues here in this country as it relates to institutional racism. when you look at three strikes, for example, in california, the majority of african-american and latino young men incarcerated, 25 years to life for nonviolent offenses. when you look at mandatory minimum sentences, crack cocaine was 100 to 1, now it's down 18 to 1. thank goodness. because legislation that the obama administration -- it should be 1 to 1. you're looking at real issues around institutional racism in the criminal justice system, and our educational system. every economic and social institution has this run-ing as a thread
