, and control of this new gop treasure trove of data. >> this is where the campaign laws play a very important part. an outside group like american cross roads can't coordinate with a candidate so it doesn't make sense for a data project where you can give data out. it doesn't make sense. the rnc has it right. it needs to be with the rnc. they're talking about sourcing with it other group like the guy from heritage but i think it has to be run from the party. i think that has more to do with campaign laws than maybe that person who was quoted thinks. >> one of the most interesting things i thought to come out of this report, an official endorsement of immigration reform. at least it says in part, we are not a policy committee but among the steps republicans take in the hispanic community and beyond, we must embrace and champion comprehensive immigration reform. if we do not, our party's appeal will continue to shrink to its core constituencies only. is this another one where they will be butting heads with some of their own rank and file? >> not if the rank and file read the totality of that d
. with dustwuns it will be a major election issue for democrats opposing strong gun laws. in other words, the real democrats won't show, which in an off year would be a very bad idea. if there's a credible primary challenge, a vote would absolutely hurt an incumbent democrat. that's from howard green. let's look at they states now. it looks to me, sam, that you have states like out west, i want to see this list of human. pryor in arrange saw, in arc, mary landrieu, kay hagen, there's a lot of senators who have to run in conservative states, mitt romney states. how do they deal with this issue this. >> you know the left, the progressive community hasn't made that much of a stink about the assault weapons ban. that might be because they recognize the political difficulties, but my sense is they recognize the assault weapon is using a very small actual number of violent crimes, violent gun crimes. they think there's studies that suggest it's down to about 2%. they recognize the bill would have a much bigger impact on reducing gun violence. so when i talk to progressives, they don't get caught up over
next month. i want to sign that bill into law as soon as possible. >> what if anything can get done while congress is away? politico's marty kay, can the president make the most of these two weeks? can he do things while congress is away? >> he can probably be very effective while congress is away of they're scattered around the country and the world. he can use this time to talk about immigration, a little about gun control if he wants to. what we heard at the end of last week before recess, was that the gang of eight senators, half republican, half democratic, are pretty close on some sort of an immigration breakthrough. how that plays on the full senate remains to be seen but they are, some of them are ready to start debating this. it is not clear what happens at the house but the senate is ready to start talking immigration. >> that gang of eight starts to seem broken by party lines a little bit. every time we talk about immigration, we have to look at the details. some people are pro pathway. maybe after 13 years. some are pro pathway after the bored he is secure. some are pro
, which is critical to law enforcement people. they'll tell you police on the streets or state police, our law enforcement at the federal level, illegal trafficking is a scourge. and, of course, background checks are absolutely critical because right now the law prohibits sales to convicted criminals, drug addicts, seriously mentally ill and domestic abusers but can't enforce that provision if private sales are exempted. so close that loophole. and then, of course, school safety will be in the bill as well. and the amendment on the floor will be on assault weapons. clearly the core bill will have those three first provisions and then there will be an amendment to add others. >> all right. well, senator richard blumenthal, my hat is off to you. you're a good man for staying awake and coming on the air. i tell you, i thought i don't think he's going to make it and you proved me wrong. i'm very glad for that and for your company. thank you so much. >> thank you, alex. >> in today's office politics, chris hayes gives us a preview of his yet to be name prime time show that remeres next month. i
law in chicago. karen, welcome. this case is a real life nightmare. really. we always say a parent's worst nightmare, it's a cliche. this really is. the woman we heard speaking, sherry west, says two boys approached her as she pushed her 13-month-old son in a stroller. one boy pulled a pistol, demanded money. he shot her and then her son. the little boy is dead. mom is recovering. karen, no weapon found. no eyewitnesses. will this make it hard to charge and convict the suspects? >> of course it will. all the studies have shown that eyewitness identification is very, very unreliable. however, jurors believe eyewitnesses. how could you mistake that person? how could you not have recognized the person who had a gun in your face. we know that about 70% of all de dna convictions that are overturned are are overturned with two or more eyewitnesses. that's not going to stop the prosecutors from charging or stop a jury from convicting. i think it's a problem. >> we were talking about the new york rabbi killed and on an eyewitness convicted the wrong man. they let him out of jail this week.
to the cabin where he up. law- enforcement officers from all agencies involved in the week-long manhunt will read reports, listen to tapes, and come to a consensus by april. dorner was wanted for killing four people including two police officers. >> nearly 100 days after the school massacre that put a gun control back in the spotlight, the sandy hook advisory committee meets to discuss violence prevention measures today. vice president joe biden was a new york speaking with the mayor michael bloomberg with the families of the december school massacre is sandy hook elementary. both men also talked about the importance of having a strong background check system for all gun sales. if the parents of a grace mcdonnell one of the sandy hook students that were skilled, hope that their grief will motivate the lawmakers. >> the nra has bottled to fight the bill that is set forth by senate majority leader harry reid. the nra also filed a federal suit their stake disputing the constitutionality of governor andrew cuomos safe act. the safe act is sweeping gun control bill cuomo signed into law in
of an apparent self- inflicted gunshot wound by law enforcement at the scene. two other victims at male and a female active- duty marines were pronounced dead at the scene. the three marines involved int personnel assigned to officers candidate school. all of the candidates in the school or accounted for in safe. all of the other from a personnel as well with the officers can this school are well accounted for. >> the identities of the victims themselves will be withheld for the next 24 hours or until the primary next of kin have been notified. >> at 10:30 p.m. a 911 call was received by the marshals office. within five minutes of notification authorities were on the seat. authorities did not report hearing any shot or firing a shot. by 11:00 p.m. quantico security had been heightened and the mass notification via the giant voiced notification system began to pass instructions to base residents and employees. >> again, listening to a live press conference at a parts of virginia. there was a standoff that happened last night around 11:00 at the marine base. a spokesperson sang a gunman s
these laws, do you think that could potentially help politicians in both parties? >> i think you could see more governors, more state legislatures feel like they might have free reign for gay marriage in their states. craig, i will say you're already seeing such a rush on this in states with democratic control. and the change in attitudes has been striking. in our own "wall street journal" poll, 30% of the country supported gay marriage in 2004. that is now a majority. 51%. so a full 20 or more percentage points increase in just nine years. that's amazing in social attitudes and in american politics. >> it kind of reminds me, when roe v. wade happened, a lot of politicians could say this is settled law. so you don't have to spend a great deal of time engaged in debates with a potential political opponent over it. if the court, if it keeps these laws intact, how could that complicate the path for politicians running for office? >> it could. it could complicate what democrats have been able to do in a lot of the states across the country. and craig, there is the possibility there could be a
, as the president who signed the act into law, i have come to believe that doma is in fact incompatible with our constitution. he said, back then it was less of a condemnation of legal marriage and a bit of legal maneuvering. i asked jeffrey toobin to explain that. >> all we can say for sure is bill clinton thinks it was a mistake to sign doma. he wrote an op ed a couple of weeks ago saying whatever justification he may have had in 1996 wasn't good enough. and he, like virtually the entire democratic party, repudiates it and wants to see it overturned. >> this isn't a thumbs-up or thumbs-down decision. this is the supreme court. what are we looking at here? >> this is a bit of a rubik's coupe, the defense of marriage act and the case of proposition 8, the ban that prohibits same-sex marriage in california. the federal law says the federal government will not recognize same-sex marriages even in states where it's legal. so people -- gay people who are married in new york and new england and all of the states where it's legal, they can't file joint tax returns or get joint survivor's social securi
presidential candidate michele bachmann who says the law literally kills people. >> especially vulnerable women, vulnerable children, vulnerable senior citizens now get to pay more and get less. that's why we're here. because we're saying let's repeal this failure before it literally kills women, kills children, kills senior citizens. let's not do that. let's love people. let's care about people. let's repeal it now while we can. >> apparently she isn't along in her opposition. the ap sum it is up this way. if you look at how it is faring half the states are doing their best to roll out obamacare. the rest are doing their best to ignore it all. good morning. the fight isn't over if you listen to republicans. they say repealing health care is still a possibility. let me just play a few little clips for you. >> i want you to take a look at that stack of paper behind me. it's the most powerful argument yet against obamacare. >> we believe that obamacare is going to be so unpopular in this country, because of all the broken promises that it will prove. remember when the president said if you like y
the toughest laws in the country. look at the crime and how it's gone down. and some of the people are saying on the side of stopping this practice, hey, which one is it here. or is it other factories that have nothing to do with stopping people. what they're also saying is you're replacing one crime with another crime. because for go to somebody that's innocent of a crime, a high school student on his way to school, and frisk them and search them, it has a terrible impact in and of itself is a kind of crime. >> this not only would have ram if i indications for new york city, but other cities. i know a number of other cities are considering it, as well.cit. i know a number of other cities are considering it, as well. would this ruling have ramifications throughout? >> it will. and the reason is the only time the courts look at the degree that police go too far is when there's a prosecution for a crime. in other words, john doe is charged with a crime and he's searched and his lawyers say it was illegal and it's reviewed by the courts. here the courts will look at cases where nobody is prosecu
background checks and really tough gun trafficking laws. >> in trying to get anything. i mean, what democrats are trying to do right now, they're looking at a tom coburn, mark kirk, looking at republicans that might sign on to a bill in the senate. even if they can get that accomplished, it comes to every week on the show, it's still not clear you can get any of this stuff through the house. there's not any house republican out there clambering for, hey, let's do universal background checks. they don't want to do anything. you get background checks through the senate and dies in the house just like it'd be possible you could get a bragra bargain in the senate. i think it's possible you get an immigration deal and it dies in the house. i don't think any of these are a fo forgone conclusion. to make significant movement on these issues. i'd say immigration's in a different category. i do think the politics, that rnc report last night, rand paul speech last night are moving in a direction where republicans probably have to compromise. i don't know that necessarily means they do compromise. >> th
, the law gives you a certain age upon when you can't consent. when you're 13 years old, you don't have the legal capacity to say, okay. even if you do say it's okay, the law says you don't know enough, and therefore, it's not okay. >> ryan, just like in steub steubenville, social media is playing a part in this, some say revictimizing the alleged victim here. here's one of the tweets, even if it was all his fault, what was a 13-year-old girl doing hanging around with 18-year-old guys? tough on the victim. >> yeah, it does. you know, it gives them a sense of what really happened. they are going to investigate and look into everything and social media gives them certain leads. when you see comments like that, you say they don't understand what happened here. as joey said, that 13 year old cannot consent. they are not at the age where they can consent. it's not about hanging out with somebody, it's about the fact these young boys, if, in fact, they are guilty, should not have done this. >> let's talk about the culture of athletes, especially football players. what does it say about the cu
>>> good evening. a big night tonight including the manhunt for the killer of a top law officer gunned down in colorado. he was the chief of that state's prisons and was killed on the doorstep of i had hos of his ho >>> and children and you a siau new number puts the numbers of children with autism at 1 in 50. has there been a dramatic increase? that's the question, tonight dr. sanjay gupta joins us for that. also tonight, a major break in the biggest art heist ever. precious works valued at half a billion dollars, stolen. we have an exclusive interview with a former guard from the museum where the art was taken. we'll tell you what the fbi now knows and take you inside the daring crime. >>> we begin, though, with that manhunt. a massive search for a brazen killer who walked up to the doorstep of colorado's prison chief, rang the bell and shot tom clements dead. this is a fast moving story. casey wian joins us. what's the latest, casey? >> reporter: the latest is, anderson, authorities are asking for help from the public. because they don't have a good sense of who this shooter
shooting that everybody thought was going to lead to some kind of big change in gun law in this country seems to be losing a lot of steam right now, suzanne. and it does not look like there's going to be any kind of ground breaking legislation at this point. >> and we know, tom, that there's a battle of course that's taking place. you have new york mayor michael bloomberg who's using a lot of money essentially to promote gun control. and the nra is pushing back at this. where does that stand in terms of the showdown between the mayor and this lobbying group? >> as i was saying a minute ago, i think what you're really seeing right now is, i won't say panic, but there's certainly an urgency on the part of people like bloomberg saying something must be done now. because even though the public opinion polls favor some kind of control, that's been eroding a little bit. and we know whenever you have one of these big events and there is a surge in support, the more you get removed from it, the more time passes, the less that support is there. and the simple truth is even though the president u
county that jessica upshaw has a daughter, son-in-law and grandson that live in south korea. the daughter is an engineer and she's now on her way back to the united states. >> brian, what about this relationship? if any, between upshaw and this former mississippi house colleague, clint rhodenberry, why she would have been at his home. what do you know? >> the friend who we spoke to, a friend close to jessica upshaw and this friend was with her yesterday, said she was in a relationship with this former state legislator, clint rhodenberry. he was not arrested in this case. the friend says they were both single, both divorced for a number of years. the friend says upshaw was found outside his house in the town of mendenhall, mississippi, where he lives. that's more than 100 miles from where her district is. they friend says they were in a relationship, that everything was fairly above board, they both were divorced for a number of years. and that's what we know now. >> okay. brian todd, thank you. >> sure. >>> check the calendar, my calendar says it is spring. but much of the country is stil
deadliest mass killings in history expected to have new gun law. the governor plans to sign three bills tomorrow. one will ban ammunition magazines from more than 15 rounds, another requires universal background checks and gun buyers have to pay for the background checks. this is "cnn newsroom." >>> nevada, a military training exercise ended in tragedy. marine corps says that seven marines were killed if an explosion. it happened overnight at the hawthorne army depot in western nevada, 140 miles southeast of re reno. harry reid say there's was a huge explosion. >> we don't know exactly what happened but it was a violent explosion, we know that. my thoughts are with those who are injured and, of course, families of those with lost loved ones. >> want to bring in our pentagon correspondent, barbara starr. tell us, first of all, what do we know about how this even happened? >> reporter: well, suzanne, the military is saying seven marines were killed when a 60 millimeter mortar shell, already in the tube, in the weapon essentially exploded. seven marines killed, a number injured and medevac
the budget in the near future. ultimately this doesn't have to become law, these are blueprints, but ultimately if there's any chance at dealing with the debt and deficit, these two, very different philosophies and visions. >> early april, the president comes up with his budget recommendation. a lot of people are hoping all of this will eventually result in the grand bargain, a real deal looking down the road, everyone on board basically. a deal that would avoid, for example, having to worry about raising the debt ceiling end of july, early august. is that at all doable? >> it is possible. i wouldn't go as far as saying doable now. but what i will say, the difference in approach now versus say two years ago when they tried this and it failed and it was, you know, almost the end of the world as the u.s. bumped up against the debt ceiling, the difference is they are going through what we call in washington regular order. everything is done in the open. i think that has lead to a different atmosphere on capitol hill where people know what's going on, they're voting on measures, and
. it needs to be modernized. number two we have to enforce our laws and improve the way they're enforced. number three we have to figure out a way to deal with the people here illegally in a way that is compassionate but also responsible. that means we're not going to deport 12 million people like rand paul said today. we're also not going to give blanket amnesty or special pathway to citizenship because it would be unfair to those who did it the right way. finding that right balance is what we're working on and i hope we'll have something soon so we can begin to discuss it with our colleagues. >> your fellow florida republican jeb bush a few weeks ago when he unveiled his book had i don't want to call it a stumble but a question about whether he supported a path to citizenship. he didn't seem to in the book although he had previously said that he did support a path to citizenship. this obviously is a big sticking point with conservatives especially. jeb bush told "the washington post" during that book tour that while he was working on the book you were not for a path to citizenship. can
bloomberg is now taking aim at tobacco, again. he wants a first of its kind city law to force stores to hide cigarettes and tobacco products, under counters, behind curtains, in drawers, but not in plain sight. he explained his push on cnn's "the lead" with jake tapper. >> trying to deglamourtize, don't remind them, don't make it look like a normal product. cigarettes are not a normal product. >> reporter: the main goal is to get teen smoking rates to drop. the city says they've remained flat since 2007. tobacco shops like this one could be exempt because kids under 18 aren't allowed in. new york has led an aggressive fight against smoking and became one of the first cities to ban it in bars and restaurants. it now touts the drop in smoking rates, but it's not convincing retailers. the new york state association of convenience stores says the notion of forcing licensed, tax collecting, law-abiding retailers to hide their tobacco inventory is patently absurd. at the skyline deli, where a pack of cigarettes can cost almost $14 because of high taxes, muhammad akandi worries about the bottom lin
if they support it, and then it would become law that way. >> the new york association of convenience stores, you can guess what they will say in response. they said this. the notion of forcing retailers to hide their tobacco inventory is patently ab such from jim calvin, the president. i'm not a smoker and i actually would be fine if every single person in the world would commit smoking tomorrow, but there is something here that seemed unfair to what he's doing to store owners. the new york association of convenience stores, it will impact the small store owner that is selling something that's legal? >> it's kind of a profound question of what you think government should do. as the mayor said, 7,000,ers die a year. is the job to treat them in the hospitals and pat them on the head as they die coughing? or can the government take steps to nudge people. just nudge them. not tell people that they can't smoke, but make it slightly more inconvenient and hope that reduces smoking. >> the mayor said there is a record reduction. 18% down to 8%. not done by hiding cigarettes. so something was effective.
. at legalzoom.com we put the law on your side. >>> time for end point now. katie, you want to start us off? >> sure. i'm going to be looking to see what happens in israel with syria up there pushing the envelope and i also want to mention there's a great story in today's personal journal section of the "wall street journal" with type a cleaners, like crazy, crazy, manic cleaners and what product companies are doing to give mostly women just this like hard-core ammo to just get down and undirty. >> it's household perfection. >> it is. >> you're a clean guy, chris. >> i'm a clean guy and always looking for a clean kitchen. so i will tune in. but i'm also like katie looking at the middle east. and i think with what's coming out of syria, the developments about who used chemical weapons and when, with the president there, things are starting to feel a little more belacose and i'm looking for signals in the public appearances and the press conferences that the prime minister and president will hold there, the talks are changing there. how fast is israel -- what kind of timeline are they running
: the promise of inheriting the world was not made to abraham and his descendants on account of any law. but on account of the righteousness which consists in faith. that is why what fulfills the promise depends on faith, so that it may be a free gift and be available to all of abraham's descendants. not only those who belong to the law. but also those who belong to the faith of abraham, who is the father of all of us. as scripture says, i have made you the ancestor of many nations. abraham is our father in the eyes of god. in whom he put his faith and who brings the dead to life and calls into being what does not exist. though it seemed abraham's hope could not be fulfilled, he hoped and he believed. and through doing so, he did become the father of many nations, exactly as he had been promised. your descendants will be as many as the stars. this is the faith that was considered as justifying him. the word of the lord. thanks be to god. ♪ >> we just completed the second reading there. i wanted to pause because it was in spanish. and this is the first pope from latin america. and the
