the fbi is involved. now we find there is a class action against him and the port authority by people who were sitting on the bridge in traffic. he knows this, he was a prosecutor himself, andy, so he gets out there. knowing he will be investigated by the feds, he is out there saying bring it, i am telling you, i had nothing to do with it. it is unusual, if he did have something to do with it, it would be extraordinary. >> and i hope he is right, because they're going to bring it. >> yes, you're saying a grand jury investigation. >> sure, and state investigations, as well. there are federal concerns and state concerns. and there is the fact that this is a blue state, megyn. the democrats who have been pretty easy on him up until now will go after him. >> and it is interesting to see david axelrod send out the tweet tonight. it is also interesting, the near deafening silence we've heard from republicans in governor christie's defense over the past couple of days. why is that? >> well, now remember, he is n

because this is very interesting about the fbi, they're on the side of the speech writers, they're on the side who want to limit the speech, and this case of dinesh is one example at that. >> and joe, interestingly, shouted, "you lie," at the convention a couple of years ago. >>> and on "face the nation." this came up. when texas senator ted cruz accused the obama administration of abusing its power. >> let me tell you something that deeply concerns me. it is the abuse of power. we've seen multiple filmmakers prosecuted and the government has gone after them, whether it was the poor fellow that did the film that the president blamed benghazi and the terrorist attack on. turns out that was not the reason for the attack. but the administration went and put that poor fellow in jail on unrelated charges. or just this week it has been broken that dinesh d 'souza -- >> cbs cut that for time, but it is posted on their website. joining me now, jerry mullen, the academy-award winner of the hit film, schindler's list, and he is working on the upcoming documentary with dinesh, as well. jerry, th

when we confronted the fbi with why are you speaking now or desiring to speak with our clients, when in fact the criminal case has been closed. no response, they wouldn't confirm or deny anything. they still say they wanted to speak to our clients. and megyn, there is another issue that was significant, you mentioned it was senator mcconnell. now through the irs they're talking about changing the rules that govern 501(c)(3), the groups that target any political speech. last fall they said if you had 40% political activity we automatically grant you status. now they're changing that and doing a post-talk about the change. it is very questionable whether we let our clients go forward. >> they found a very interesting solution to the problem, which is that is right, this whole thing is such a hassle, that will make it nice and easy, we just rubber sunday stamp it at the beginning and no therefore there won't be a lengthy investigation in it. >> the problem with that, the constitution protects speech, including political speech. that is number one, number two, they have offered compromis

now, the fbi clearly does background checks, and that aggravated robbery would have precluded him from being a citizen, we'll clear it up when ice gets back in touch with us. >>> all right, we are looking at the u.s. supreme court whether they are debating on whether or not president obama is abusing at least one of his key presidential powers. it sparks a first of its kind debate on our constitution. more on what happened today, shannon? >> well, megyn, it was a hot bench, having covered the court you know exactly what that means, a lot of questions, a lot of back and forth, and today, plenty of skepticism on just how much the white house is stretching the boundaries of the powers. there is no question the president has the power to fill important positions when the senate is in recess. but today in an extended 90-minute argument the justices considered several issues, primarily whether the senate was in recess in 2012 when the president decided to put three critical nominees on the national labor relations board. no recess, so solicitorer general argued it was ambiguous, and vague, s

>> it was just hours after that not guilty verdict came in when the fbi jumped in and said they would go back and review all of the evidence in this case, to see if a federal investigation was warranted and if it is warranted that could result in brand new charges, the entire 33 minute beating was caught on surveillance, the audio caught on police audio recorders of this entire incident. listen to some of it. >> okay, help me, please. i can't breathe, sir. >> kelly thomas was beaten, tasered at least five times with officers pressing on his head and neck. the oxygen had been cut off to his brain, the defense called it justified, thomas' father calls it horrifying, listen to both. >> these police officers were doing their job, they were operating as they were trained and they had no malice in their heart, they were not out to get somebody that night. >> police families, so many people, our families are police officers, now i just don't like them, and i was one. >> ron thomas was an orange county deputy. the autopsy showed there was no drugs or alcohol in his system on the night of july

just so the viewers know, the confirmation hearing was closed and then somebody leaked an fbi report to the press about anita's allegations, which were never brought in a court of law, it was just stuff that she said happened in a room that he denied. and other senators and lawmakers came out and said reopen the confirmation hearings which they were forced to do to vet these claims which were not supported. and in which clarence thomas responded to in part as follows, listen here. >> this is a circus. it is a national disgrace. and from my standpoint, as a black american, as far as i'm concerned it is a high-tech lynching for uppity blacks. >> ebony, your thoughts. >> yeah, also as a black american, i don't care if you're from the left or right, as a woman, i want to see bill clinton or justice thomas who is accused to be thoroughlying investigated. you're right, it is undocumented, but the women who have to deal with the back lash feed in the media or otherwise, that is a conversation worth having. >> listen, there is no question that that situation started conversations. it had nev
