the memo was called the imagine geek valerie. that is just the -- the magic valerie. and that is just the beginning. they say the magic is her intau elect and her heart. can you imagine anybody saying that about karl rove? the memo goes on, valerie has taped into people's experiences and their good times and bad. she expects people to work their hearts out and for the president and never forget where you work and the magnitude. the memo continues, single mother, woman working to the top in a competitive male dominated world, african-american working for change from the grassroots to big business. best of all from a white house that cannot stop its employees from running for the exits the memo claims that valerie is some here who other people inside the building know they can trust, parenthesises, need examples, close parenthesis, close quote. so far, no reports of examples have surfaced. >> the british royal family could soon grow by one. how long before the duchess of cambridge, kate middle son, is expected to give birth. that's coming up next. >>> oh, yes, we're on

multiple times he was read his miranda rights, valerie. even the lead detective, all of the detectives in the case said he was cooperative. never wanted an attorney. he went back to the scene of the crime as they asked him, forthright in the answers. will that play with the jury? did you get any -- did that seem to get any reaction from them? >> yeah it seems as though the officers thought he was very truthful and the jury, i watched them. taking notes. any time the really good details came out, they all started looking down, taking notes. sometimes they would -- during those important details, they were focusing -- i also noticed when officer dara singleton, said she was interviewing him, sxat fir and at first he didn't realize that trayvon martin was dead. that was also a surprise to me today. >> how do you get past, because it's on the prosecution to prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt. how do you get ground and pound, mma style from an eyewitness in this case that saw punches going down, which corroborates the story which zimmer

. >> valerie? >> i talked to state attorney corey a few days ago and said she never called george zimmerman a racist and never withhold evidence and gave them a dvd of the pictures and the text messages, however, the defense just didn't have the software to download it and she say this is's where the mistake happened. >> isn't it true, though, that they gave black and white photo which was very, very different. they didn't give the color photo, valerie? >> yes. that's what the defense was saying originally. but she swears that everything that they had was an that dvd and that if they had that proper software they would have gotten the same things that they had. >> why did she then fire the whistle-blower in the case who's now filing a lawsuit? >> i asked that. she said that ben was a trusted friend and that he violated their trust and that he could no longer work there because of that and said he wiped the laptop clean which was unacceptable. >> i'm not sure if that's believable because the defense

she sat down for an intimate chat which "my generation" contributor valerie bertinelli about her life and why she felt the need to give herself an attitude overhaul. - she's been a fixture in american life, from actress to activist, philanthropist to fitness expert. now jane fonda believes she's happier now that she's ever been. - i feel as good as i look. now, to look like this, it takes a village, right? - no, it doesn't. - hair, makeup, and all the people--a glam team. but i feel really good. it's funny, because i didn't always feel good, and i used to get stressed a lot. i don't get stressed so much. - at 74, fonda says she's finally hit her stride and talks about this journey in her latest book, "prime time." for her, getting older was nothing like she expected. - first of all, i never thought i'd live this long. - are you kidding me, with the way you take care of yourself? - that started late in life. i did not think i was going to live very long, and i didn't think i would be happy, and i thought if i lived so long, i'd be miserable. - really? - lonely, maybe an addict. i just

the prosecution called medical examiner valerie rao to the stand. she testified about the seriousness of george zimmerman's injuries. take a look at part of what she had to say today. >> when you said re-enactment, was that an interview, where he conducted a walk-through and led investigators through the scene and explained to them what happened? >> yes. >> after reviewing all those items, in terms of severitseverw would you classify the injuries to the defendant's head? >> they were not life threatening, they were very insignificant, they did not require any sutures to be applied. so as i would refer to them as insignificant. >> are the defendant's injuries consistent with having repeatedly been slammed into a concrete surface? >> no. >> why not. >> because if you look at them, they are minor. to me, slam implies great force. the resultant injuries are not grateful. >> how bad were zimmerman's injuries. i'm struck here by what the medical examiner, valerie rao said, she never saw in person as far as i understand it, zimmerman. she didn't examine hi

joining us, valerie jarrett.affairs and public -- you're the most senior adviser. sd does that work for you? >> you can call me whatever you'd like as long as we get to talk about the president's speech. >> i'm reading from the "new york times". it says the president senior administration officials say he's probably not going to have any sweeping new proposals and it's not intended to break the stalemate with congress. and then the republicans say that they can't believe it's another speech without any legislative negotiations. so what will the president be trying to do do you think, valerie? >> the president is looking forward to going back to our home state of illinois, back to knox college where he gave his first major speech after being elected to the u.s. senate eight years ago. and in that speech and as he has done since that time in other major speeches, he talks about what is important to the american people. and that is building a strong middle class from the inside out, building ladders of opportunity i

museum and valerie jarrett wanted her secret service detail?a lot of people in the white house after david axelrod, valerie insisted on it. president himself makes the call. it's something that a lot of people in the white house or who have worked in the white house. >> chris: you puncture some of the blown up egos in this town. for example, steve schmidt, former republican consultant who ran the mccain campaign advised him to pick sarah palin and made a career out of bashing sarah palin. you say, quote, it was another instance of the media swooning over republicans with self-tendencies and especially when they move left? >> i think that is true. you look at the case of john mccain in 2000 he was such a media darling. mainstream media loved him. he was an example of maverick republican. if you look at joe lieberman who bucks his party who is a democrat and assumes a more conservative posture, he becomes the turn coat. there are examples of that in every direction. >> chris: finally, what is the reaction to your book then? are people more upset

we got a few very important morsels, if you will, from valerie rao. the first of which right out of the gate she testified that george zimmerman's injuries were, in her words, insignificant. she used that adjective several times to talk about the injuries that he sustained. she also talked a little bit about the injuries not being a result of great force as well. we saw mark o'mara on cross-examination try and discredit her by basically saying that she was appointed by angela cory and as a result implying that her testimony might be slanted. we just heard on redirect that she insisted that was not the case. again, it was very interesting to watch and hear that back and forth. valerie rao maintaining that the injuries that george zimmerman sustained, in her words, were insignificant and also this idea that his head had been slammed multiple times on the concrete. she testified that based on what she saw, that was probably not the case. i do want to update our viewers on another story that we've been following, this motion that was filed by the defense

can't confirm that, but that you did speak to the white house, did you talk to presidential adviser valerie jarrett about some kind of bailout and you were turned down. can you confirm or deny that rumor? >> no, i can't confirm or deny that rumor. >> so are you saying you did not talk to ms. jarrett? >> i can't confirm or deny that rumor. all i'm saying is we reached out to a number of different people. but we have to solve this problem on our own. this is a problem it that has been more than 60 years in the making. there is $18 billion of debtt t been more than 60 years in the making. there is $18 billion of debt thn more than 60 years in the making. there is $18 billion of debttha more than 60 years in the making. there is $18 billion of debt total. even if we took $200 million a year out of a $1 billion budget which we can't do, it would take 68 years to pay off that debt. even just $11 billion in unsecured debt is almost 52 years. i'd be dead. we can't wait any longer. >> detroit is a formerler great and proud city. there is no two ways about that. the heartland of america. when you loo

lots of people say, oh, yeah, that's a funny story about valerie jarrett. is a black heart at the center of this. >> thank you, thank you, thank you. great. >> john: feel free to put that on the next book. there's a black heart in the center of this book. enjoy. let's talk a little bit about the revolving door. >> sure john: through d.c. because you mention the atlantic points out in 1974, 3% of retiring members became lobbyists. now 50% of senators. >> 50% of senators, 42% of congressmen. >> john: that is a problem, is is it not? >> you would think. people come to washington. they ran against washington as this swamp. they say i'm going to drain the swamp. then they settle into the place like a warm bath. it's a very moneyed and very easy and very comfortable place. frankly i mean i tried to illustrate this carnival it has always become >> reporter: the idea that there was a pay-off to public service is cancerous in terms of government. >> you would think. i mean this is supposedly a city built on public service. i mean, yes, it's hollywood for ugly people

thank you valerie for that introduction thread i want to thank our sponsors as well as their host for the opportunity to moderate this panel of insightful -- incisive commentators engaging leaders that i want to quickly stay themes of our panel and introduce a panelist and open it up for conversation. of course this evening our event is entitled "the new jerusalem" black life life the church in the struggle for democracy. our hosts have given us the charge of taking on the theme of the fact that religious belief religious institutions and religious people came to be seen as essential to social freedom. this remains the central paradox in african-american life and political history. our discussion will examine the overlapping challenges of creating a basis for collective activism building independent black institutions determining the place of men women politics and religion in leadership. now to our panelists who all have long is such that they could take up the entire night so i will list the titles of their books and move into the conversation. first to my most immediate right and m

valerie rao testified that his wounds were not live threatening and were not in account of being slammed into a side wall over and over. >> are the injuries consistent with having been repeatedly slammed into a concrete surface? >> no. >> why not? >> if you look at the injuries, they're so minor that to me, the word slammed implies great force. and this, the resulting injuries are not great force. >> reporter: but the defense got her to admit zimmerman's injuries could have been caused by multiple impacts. >> anything that would medically exclude that the right side was hit four times? >> it is possible. >> reporter: zimmerman, who has pleaded not guilty to second degree murder, that he shot trayvon martin in self-defense while being attacked. earlier, chris serino returned to the stand for a second day with attorneys from both sides grilling him about his interviews with zimmerman. >> any inconsistencies that you consider to be significant? >> not that i can challenge them with, no. >> prosecutors bernie de la rionda asked about zimmerman's use of profanity in his call to police reporti

valerie jarrett tweeted out we're listening. >> well, that's what they are trying to do, they are trying to spin this as, okay, people thought we inn were anti-business, hey, we're not. we love business. i don't think that's will fly. i think people will realize just because it is a mess. but they also point out 94% of employees are already covered by their companies. talking about a relatively small slice of the employee world. >> let's talk immigration. last week the senate passed a bill to create a path to citizenship for the 11 million undocumented workers. how do you think that plays out for both getting many people in to the system, getting tax revenues there and for the large corporations who have been banging the immigration drum? >> i think for the most part, a lot of different constituencies should be happy about it. for one thing, like having 11 million people who are sort of undocumented is just a system that needs to be addressed. mass deportation is never going to work. that is not how we should deal with it. but on the other hand, having this in this sort of legal limbo is
