01:02.195 --> 01:04.097 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Spies work in the shadows but 01:04.097 --> 01:06.199 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% yesterday Gina Haspel was in the 01:06.199 --> 01:07.801 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% spotlight at her confirmation 01:07.801 --> 01:09.102 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% hearings to be

01:12.105 --> 01:14.707 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% suited to lead the agency except 01:14.707 --> 01:16.709 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% for her role running one of the 01:16.709 --> 01:20.213 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% black sites where detainees were 01:20.213 --> 01:22.115 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% water

if confirmed and said 01:29.122 --> 01:31.024 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% she knows right from wrong. 01:31.024 --> 01:34.227 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Lisa, should her role in that 01:34.227 --> 01:36.329 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% episode be disqualifying to run 01:36.329 --> 01:37.530 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the CIA? 01:37.530 --> 01:39.532 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I mean her role in that episode 01:39.532 --> 01:46.139 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% is very concerning I'm concerned 01:46.139 --> 01:47.540 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% about both things you mentioned, 01:47.540 --> 01:50.543 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the role in the black site, the 01:50.543 --> 01:53.146 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% destruction of evidence pending 01:53.146 --> 01:54.147 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% investigation but I don't 01:54.147 --> 01:54.848 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% believe it should be 01:54.848 --> 01:57.050 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% disqualifying and I do think she 01:57.050 --> 01:59.252 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% is uniquely suited for the role 01:59.252 --> 02:00.553 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% and particularly for the time 02:00.553 --> 02:02.255 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% that we are in, including 02:02.255 --> 02:06.159 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% because of her expertise on 02:06.159 --> 02:07.060 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% things like Russia. 02:07.060 --> 02:10.063 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She's an expert on Russian and 02:10.063 --> 02:11.865 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Russian spies. 02:11.865 --> 02:15.869 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And the fact that she is widely 02:15.869 --> 02:18.371 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% supported by employees and 02:18.371 --> 02:20.673 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% agents in the CIA and many 02:20.673 --> 02:23.476 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% former intelligence experts, 02:23.476 --> 02:27.380 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% including John Brennan, Obama's 02:27.380 --> 02:28.982 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% CIA chief and that's because of 02:28.982 --> 02:30.884 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% her qualifications for the job 02:30.884 --> 02:32.285 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% and because the concern is if 02:32.285 --> 02:34.087 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% not her, who might Donald Trump 02:34.087 --> 02:35.288 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% appoint to this post? 02:35.288 --> 02:36.489 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And this is what I'm talking 02:36.489 --> 02:37.891 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% about being in unique times. 02:37.891 --> 02:39.292 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I mean I think even if that 02:39.292 --> 02:41.995 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% weren't the case, honestly, if 02:41.995 --> 02:43.296 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% we weren't worried about who 02:43.296 --> 02:44.697 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Donald Trump might appoint and 02:44.697 --> 02:47.400 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% given his, you know, tendency to 02:47.400 --> 02:49.102 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% pick people that are not 02:49.102 --> 02:51.304 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% qualified to politicize 02:51.304 --> 02:54.807 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% appointments, and his sort of 02:54.807 --> 02:56.910 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% antipathy toward intelligence 02:56.910 --> 02:58.811 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% services, even if we weren't 02:58.811 --> 03:00.013 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% worried about that, I still 03:00.013 --> 03:01.014 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% think I would support her 03:01.014 --> 03:02.515 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% because of her qualifications 03:02.515 --> 03:04.317 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% and because she said it wouldn't 03:04.317 --> 03:06.619 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% happen again under her... go she 03:06.619 --> 03:08.021 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% said she followed her moral 03:08.021 --> 03:09.822 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% compass and I don't have much 03:09.822 --> 03:11.424 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% confidence in her moral compass. 03:11.424 --> 03:13.927 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% The torture regime put in place 03:13.927 --> 03:15.228 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% by the Obama administration and 03:15.228 --> 03:17.230 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% not properly litigated by the 03:17.230 --> 03:18.031 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Barack Obama is one of the 03:18.031 --> 03:20.133 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% darkest moments in American 03:20.133 --> 03:22.135 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% history and what we have now as 03:22.135 --> 03:23.836 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Lisa is saying is a soft 03:23.836 --> 03:26.539 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% consensus like, well, you know, 03:26.539 --> 03:27.740 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% this is someone we want to have 03:27.740 --> 03:29.442 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% in charge of the CIA, which 03:29.442 --> 03:31.044 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% means that what happened before 03:31.044 --> 03:32.645 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% is sort of basically okay. 03:32.645 --> 03:33.746 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And the fact of the matter is 03:33.746 --> 03:35.848 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% that Gina Haspel is a criminal 03:35.848 --> 03:37.450 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% and I came with notes today. 03:37.450 --> 03:39.352 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% This is the 1984 convention 03:39.352 --> 03:40.453 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% against torture signed by Ronald

04:15.088 --> 04:16.990 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And a person who conspires to 04:16.990 --> 04:19.993 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% commit an offense should be 04:19.993 --> 04:21.494 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% subject to the same penalty. 04:21.494 --> 04:23.896 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She is lucky she is not

that she 04:39.412 --> 04:41.114 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% is a woman, she has come up 04:41.114 --> 04:42.515 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% through the ranks. 04:42.515 --> 04:48.321 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She is not an appointee 04:48.321 --> 04:49.922 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% President Trump would make. 04:49.922 --> 04:51.924 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% When she was asked whether she 04:51.924 --> 04:53.026 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% thought water boarding or 04:53.026 --> 04:59.032 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% torture was wrong, she said I 04:59.032 --> 05:00.533 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% don't know if the word was wrong 05:00.533 --> 05:02.035 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% or moral, she would note answer 05:02.035 --> 05:02.435 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% that. 05:02.435 --> 05:04.070 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She said I can't answer that. 05:04.070 --> 05:06.472 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I think it was effective at 05:06.472 --> 05:08.374 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% getting people who were involved 05:08.374 --> 05:10.476 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% in 9/11 or whatever...

05:13.579 --> 05:14.881 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> She said I don't think we can 05:14.881 --> 05:16.382 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% say it is effective or not. 05:16.382 --> 05:17.884 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She said we got information. 05:17.884 --> 05:19.686 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I don't think it is knowable, 05:19.686 --> 05:20.386 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% she said. 05:20.386 --> 05:23.089 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> We got... I thought she was 05:23.089 --> 05:25.692 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% saying... the point is that she 05:25.692 --> 05:27.794 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% wasn't saying it was morally 05:27.794 --> 05:28.294 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% wrong. 05:28.294 --> 05:30.096 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> She was parsing the

06:09.535 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% violation of international and 06:09.535 --> 06:09.936 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% national law. 06:09.936 --> 06:11.337

06:14.540 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% States we have not done 06:14.540 --> 06:16.743 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% prosecutions as you pointed out, 06:16.743 --> 06:18.144 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% as a consequence of all this and 06:18.144 --> 06:19.245 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% it would have started right at 06:19.245 --> 06:19.846 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the top. 06:19.846 --> 06:22.749 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% So here we are in 2018, and Lisa 06:22.749 -->

align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% things going for her. 06:27.253 --> 06:28.654 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% One is that she has been through 06:28.654 --> 06:31.657 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% this torture stuff and she-- my 06:31.657 --> 06:33.659 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% sense, for what it's worth, is 06:33.659 --> 06:34.660 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% that she understands that this 06:34.660 --> 06:36.562 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% is not useful, okay. 06:36.562 --> 06:38.765 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Leaving law aside. 06:38.765 --> 06:40.666 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Secondly, she does know the CIA. 06:40.666 --> 06:42.468 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Third she knows Russia well. 06:42.468 --> 06:44.270 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And that probably is arguably 06:44.270 --> 06:45.772 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the most important thing at this 06:45.772 --> 06:46.472 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% juncture. 06:46.472 --> 06:48.374 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And who would we get if she 06:48.374 --> 06:50.176 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% pulls out from trump? 06:50.176 --> 06:51.577 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% It's only going to be worse. 06:51.577 --> 06:52.979 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Yes, she should be confirmed. 06:52.979 --> 06:55.181 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I understand I agree 100% but 06:55.181 --> 06:56.482 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% it's a long trail that leads 06:56.482 --> 06:57.984 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% right back to dick Cheney and 06:57.984 --> 07:00.586 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% she wasn't an independent 07:00.586 --> 07:03.289 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% functionary who decided on her 07:03.289 --> 07:04.991 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% own one day she was going to 07:04.991 --> 07:05.491 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% torture. 07:05.491 --> 07:08.094 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> There was D.O.J. cover for 07:08.094 -->

align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I law school said they wrote a 07:14.600 --> 07:16.803 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% memo in which he says torture is 07:16.803 --> 07:17.303 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% okay. 07:17.303 --> 07:18.304 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% That was awful. 07:18.304 --> 07:19.605 align:left

align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Gina Haspel knew that. 07:29.715 --> 07:31.517 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She oversaw water boarding which 07:31.517 --> 07:32.118 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% is a crime. 07:32.118 --> 07:33.920 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I keep saying the same thing. 07:33.920 --> 07:35.521 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% We can talk about her 07:35.521 --> 07:37.323 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% qualifications and the difficult 07:37.323 --> 07:38.224 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% moments we are in. 07:38.224 --> 07:39.525 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She is a criminal and should be 07:39.525 --> 07:40.726 align:left

right they 07:50.336 --> 07:50.837 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% should. 07:50.837 --> 07:52.338 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Sights a stain in American 07:52.338 --> 07:56.843 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% history and Barack Obama... it 07:56.843 --> 07:59.946 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% requires a government signatory 07:59.946 --> 08:02.448 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% investigates and, prosecutes 08:02.448 --> 08:04.250 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% crimes and Obama didn't do it. 08:04.250 --> 08:07.553 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% So Obama is guilty under this as 08:07.553 --> 08:07.753 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% well. 08:07.753 --> 08:09.555 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% It's an outrage what we have 08:09.555 --> 08:10.656 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% allowed to happen in this 08:10.656 --> 08:11.157 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% country. 08:11.157 --> 08:12.158 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> The best we can have because 08:12.158 --> 08:13.759 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% there will never be the 08:13.759 --> 08:15.862 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% prosecutions, never, never going 08:15.862 --> 08:16.462

--> 08:43.089 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% and officials saying they did 08:43.089 --> 08:44.190 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% not support her nomination 08:44.190 --> 08:45.191 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% because of the... 08:45.191 --> 08:46.792 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Look, I commend him for his 08:46.792 --> 08:48.394 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% consistency on the issue and for 08:48.394 --> 08:51.697 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% his courage in speaking out. 08:51.697 --> 08:53.199 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I'm a little less impressed with 08:53.199 --> 08:54.300 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% some of what I see as some of 08:54.300 --> 08:57.603 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the grandstanding by some of the 08:57.603 --> 08:59.305 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Democratic senators, because I 08:59.305 --> 09:01.207 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% think in some cases, you almost 09:01.207 --> 09:03.209 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% can hear them... it's almost 09:03.209 --> 09:04.911 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% like they know she is going to 09:04.911 --> 09:07.013 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% be confirmed and so it's easy 09:07.013 --> 09:08.614 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% for them to come out and express 09:08.614 --> 09:09.415 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% their outrage. 09:09.415 --> 09:11.017 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And, you know, among the people 09:11.017 --> 09:12.618 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% who were complicit in this were 09:12.618 --> 09:14.020 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% some of the very people who were 09:14.020 --> 09:16.822 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% read in on this back in... at 09:16.822 --> 09:17.423 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the time. 09:17.423 --> 09:19.325 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Absolutely but they're not 09:19.325 --> 09:20.826 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% being put in charge of the CIA. 09:20.826 --> 09:21.527 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> I understand that. 09:21.527 --> 09:23.029 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> You think there are people 09:23.029 --> 09:24.030 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% still in the CIA who 09:24.030 --> 09:25.932 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% participated in that torture? 09:25.932 --> 09:27.433 align:left position:10%,start line:89%

size:80% the faces of those CIA agents on 09:31.337 --> 09:33.639 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% tore torturing those people that 09:33.639 --> 09:35.441 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% it's a crime and if their faces 09:35.441 --> 09:36.943 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% were known they might be 09:36.943 --> 09:38.844 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% prosecuted internationally and 09:38.844 --> 09:39.245 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% nationally. 09:39.245 --> 09:40.246 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She destroyed evidence. 09:40.246 --> 09:41.347 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Yes, she did. 09:41.347 --> 09:45.051 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% (all talking at once) 09:45.051 --> 09:47.853 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> She wrote a memo for her 09:47.853 --> 09:48.254 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% boss... 09:48.254 --> 09:50.056 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> She was carrying out. 09:50.056 --> 09:51.457 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> And to the White House's 09:51.457 --> 09:52.358 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% surprise as well. 09:52.358 --> 09:53.359 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% They didn't know they were going 09:53.359 --> 09:54.560 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% to destroy the tapes. 09:54.560 --> 09:56.963 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Now we do have to move on. 09:56.963 --> 09:59.265 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% So the 22nd congressional 09:59.265 --> 10:01.367 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% district that includes Utica,

align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% already is that there is a Zogby 10:38.204 --> 10:40.506 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% poll out who has her opponent, 10:40.506 --> 10:43.609 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Anthony Brindisi leading her 10:43.609 --> 10:44.810 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% 47-40. 10:44.810 --> 10:46.112 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Even by a little bit more when 10:46.112 --> 10:47.913 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the undecided were pushed to 10:47.913 --> 10:51.017 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% make or take a stand. 10:51.017 --> 10:53.119 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And Brindisi, interestingly is 10:53.119 --> 10:56.122 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% continually emphasizing his 10:56.122 --> 10:58.224 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% willingness to work across the 10:58.224 --> 10:58.924 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% aisle. 10:58.924 --> 11:00.926 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% That he has done that in the 11:00.926 --> 11:01.927 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Assembly and would do that for 11:01.927 --> 11:03.629 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the good of the district and so 11:03.629 --> 11:05.331 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% on. 11:05.331 --> 11:08.034 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Tenney has chosen, and I think 11:08.034 --> 11:09.835 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% she will stick with it... she 11:09.835 --> 11:11.037 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% seems very consistent around 11:11.037 --> 11:14.540 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% this, a kind of appeal to the 11:14.540 --> 11:17.643 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% base, fairly narrow base way of 11:17.643 --> 11:20.346 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% campaigning and being, really. 11:20.346 --> 11:22.048 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% It's interesting because I read 11:22.048 --> 11:23.049 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% somewhere in an article about 11:23.049 --> 11:29.155 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% her that a pew center poll had 11:29.155 --> 11:31.357 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% found that 19% of Republicans 11:31.357 --> 11:33.559 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% were really angry at the 11:33.559 --> 11:33.859 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% government. 11:33.859 --> 11:35.261 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Now this is down from the number 11:35.261 --> 11:36.662 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% who are angry at the government 11:36.662 --> 11:38.464 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% under Obama but way up from 11:38.464 --> 11:40.666 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% those that are angry at the 11:40.666 --> 11:43.069 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% government the Obama 11:43.069 --> 11:43.869 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% administration say. 11:43.869 --> 11:45.471 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Tenney and other Republicans 11:45.471 --> 11:46.972 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% have chosen to both support 11:46.972 --> 11:48.574 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% trump and support trump in this 11:48.574 --> 11:50.776 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% way, to kind of channel they 11:50.776 --> 11:53.279 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% motion of frustration and anger 11:53.279 --> 11:53.979 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% at the government. 11:53.979 --> 11:55.681 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And she does this all the time. 11:55.681 --> 11:57.883 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I mean the best example, which I 11:57.883 --> 11:59.985 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% was just amazed at is when she 11:59.985 --> 12:02.588 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% said this thing, which you 12:02.588 --> 12:04.190 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% probably all heard about the 12:04.190 --> 12:05.991 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Democrats or mass murderers 12:05.991 --> 12:07.193 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% tending to be Democrats. 12:07.193 --> 12:09.595 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She was criticized by the former 12:09.595 --> 12:11.597 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% holders of her seat, two 12:11.597 --> 12:13.999 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Republicans and a democrat, 12:13.999 --> 12:17.703 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% bowler and Hannah and when she 12:17.703 --> 12:18.904 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% was confronted with their 12:18.904 --> 12:21.107 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% criticism, she referred to all 12:21.107 --> 12:24.310 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% three of them as swamp creatures 12:24.310 --> 12:26.011 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% raising their bloody hands out 12:26.011 --> 12:27.213 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% of their political grave. 12:27.213 --> 12:29.815 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I mean that's only going to 12:29.815 --> 12:32.818 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% appeal to the 19% who is really 12:32.818 --> 12:34.220 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% angry at everybody, including 12:34.220 --> 12:37.123 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% their former members of 12:37.123 --> 12:37.423 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Congress. 12:37.423 --> 12:39.625 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% It just seems like a not very 12:39.625 --> 12:40.526 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% strategic thing. 12:40.526 --> 12:42.027 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> She would certainly double 12:42.027 --> 12:42.928 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% down. 12:42.928 --> 12:44.730 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> That's exactly it. 12:44.730 --> 12:45.531 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Doubling down. 12:45.531 --> 12:47.333 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She issued a statement recently 12:47.333 --> 12:49.235 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% not just a generic statement but 12:49.235 --> 12:50.636 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% a very strong statement in 12:50.636 --> 12:52.138 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% support of trump's pulling out 12:52.138 --> 12:53.739 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% of the Iran nuclear deal. 12:53.739 --> 12:55.741 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She is really a mini trump. 12:55.741 --> 12:58.043 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% It's not just that she is siding 12:58.043 --> 12:59.845 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% generally in a general way with 12:59.845 --> 13:00.946 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Donald Trump and his agenda but 13:00.946 --> 13:03.649 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% she really mimics his rhetoric 13:03.649 --> 13:04.350 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% constantly. 13:04.350 --> 13:07.553 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And historically that strategy 13:07.553 --> 13:08.954 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% has worked for her. 13:08.954 --> 13:10.256 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She is in the House of 13:10.256 --> 13:11.357 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Representatives. 13:11.357 --> 13:13.559 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She was elected and reelected 13:13.559 --> 13:15.161 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% several times in the state 13:15.161 --> 13:17.163 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Assembly being pretty hard right 13:17.163 --> 13:18.264 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% but there are a couple of things 13:18.264 --> 13:21.066 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% about the Zogby poll and where 13:21.066 --> 13:22.368 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% she stands right now. 13:22.368 --> 13:24.270 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% It is pretty unusual for a 13:24.270 --> 13:25.271 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% challenger to be up about I 13:25.271 --> 13:26.772 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% seven points over an incumbent 13:26.772 --> 13:28.474 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% and that does not bode well for 13:28.474 --> 13:30.576 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% her; however, there is one other 13:30.576 --> 13:32.077 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% thing about the poll that 13:32.077 --> 13:33.679 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% provides her with an opening and 13:33.679 --> 13:34.880 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% that's the fact that roughly 13:34.880 --> 13:37.183 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% half the people who were polled 13:37.183 --> 13:38.484 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% said they didn't know anything 13:38.484 --> 13:40.586 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% about Anthony Brindisi. 13:40.586 --> 13:42.588 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% He is a blind slate in the minds 13:42.588 --> 13:44.190 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% of a lot of voters and that 13:44.190 --> 13:45.291 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% provides her with an opportunity 13:45.291 --> 13:47.393 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% to define him in her terms in 13:47.393 --> 13:49.395 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% negative ways to try and drive 13:49.395 --> 13:51.297 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% down her numbers so that she, 13:51.297 --> 13:53.699 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% you know, might find a way to 13:53.699 --> 13:55.201 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% get... 13:55.201 --> 13:56.402 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Brindisi is the state 13:56.402 --> 13:57.503 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% representative from the Utica 13:57.503 --> 13:59.705 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% area so much of the district 13:59.705 --> 14:02.107 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% never heard of him. 14:02.107 --> 14:03.108 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> She has called him a 14:03.108 --> 14:04.910 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% socialist and you remember when 14:04.910 --> 14:06.312 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% he first declared that he was 14:06.312 --> 14:07.813 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% running, she went after his 14:07.813 --> 14:10.616 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% father and got all the Italians 14:10.616 --> 14:12.218 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% in Utica all riled up. 14:12.218 --> 14:14.520 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% So she hasn't taken up that 14:14.520 --> 14:16.822 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% opportunity much yet, I don't 14:16.822 --> 14:17.623 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% think. 14:17.623 --> 14:18.624 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% You are right... 14:18.624 --> 14:19.425 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> I think you are right. 14:19.425 --> 14:24.830 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She hasn't but that's is her one 14:24.830 --> 14:25.831 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% opening. 14:25.831 --> 14:27.633 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> When she is challenged about 14:27.633 --> 14:30.336 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% her outrageousness or 14:30.336 --> 14:31.136 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% trumpiness. 14:31.136 --> 14:33.839 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She said I know my district. 14:33.839 --> 14:35.541 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I know my people is what she 14:35.541 --> 14:35.941 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% says. 14:35.941 --> 14:39.144 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Polls be damned. 14:39.144 --> 14:41.847 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> But she may well. 14:41.847 --> 14:44.250 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% It is interesting the contrast 14:44.250 --> 14:45.251 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% between her and someone like 14:45.251 --> 14:46.552 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Katko... 14:46.552 --> 14:48.053 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Or Richard Hannah. 14:48.053 --> 14:49.555 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Richard Hannah who was her 14:49.555 --> 14:50.456 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% predecessor. 14:50.456 --> 14:52.658 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% But I mean I'm talking about 14:52.658 --> 14:54.860 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% their presence or tactics to 14:54.860 --> 14:57.263 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% deal with trump and to find a 14:57.263 --> 14:58.864 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% path forward in districts that 14:58.864 --> 15:00.866 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% are, you know, somewhat similar. 15:00.866 --> 15:02.067 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% They're both... 15:02.067 --> 15:05.371 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Katko's is more Democratic. 15:05.371 --> 15:06.672 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> When we talked about her two 15:06.672 --> 15:09.575 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% years ago, I said, I remember 15:09.575 --> 15:11.176 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% saying well I can see how she 15:11.176 --> 15:12.878 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% could get elected because she is 15:12.878 --> 15:16.181 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% so aggressive and that race was 15:16.181 --> 15:18.584 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% so odd, running against a woman 15:18.584 --> 15:20.586 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% from Binghamton people didn't 15:20.586 --> 15:20.986 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% know. 15:20.986 --> 15:23.088 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> And it was... 15:23.088 --> 15:25.391 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> I said at the time, I said I 15:25.391 --> 15:26.992 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% can't see how she will get 15:26.992 --> 15:29.995 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% reelected because that district, 15:29.995 --> 15:31.497 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% she may know the district but I 15:31.497 --> 15:33.699 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% think she makes stuff up. 15:33.699 --> 15:35.501 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% When she said she knows the 15:35.501 --> 15:37.102 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% district better, that means she 15:37.102 --> 15:38.103 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% talked to her family. 15:38.103 --> 15:39.204 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She is completely full of 15:39.204 --> 15:41.607 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% nonsense but it got her elected 15:41.607 --> 15:42.808 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% once but I will be very 15:42.808 --> 15:44.910 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% surprised if she gets reelected 15:44.910 --> 15:46.111 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% because this red meat Hillary 15:46.111 --> 15:47.913 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Clinton should go to jail, mass 15:47.913 --> 15:49.014 align:left position:10%,start line:89%

line:89% size:80% playing well in a district that 15:51.817 --> 15:53.819 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% has a long history of, yes, it's 15:53.819 --> 15:54.820 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Republican in terms of 15:54.820 --> 15:56.121 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% identification, but it's 15:56.121 --> 15:58.023 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Republican in the sense of real, 15:58.023 --> 16:00.125 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% if there are any moderate 16:00.125 --> 16:02.227 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Republicans left, the kind who 16:02.227 --> 16:04.930 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% elected boller and hannah. 16:04.930 --> 16:06.131 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> It's a two candidate race. 16:06.131 --> 16:08.033 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She won with 46% of the vote two 16:08.033 --> 16:08.534 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% years ago. 16:08.534 --> 16:12.438 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% She has got to get over 50%, she 16:12.438 --> 16:14.239 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% has to appeal to a greater 16:14.239 --> 16:17.042 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% degree to moderates, undecided 16:17.042 --> 16:18.644 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% because in this district there 16:18.644 --> 16:20.346 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% is a hard core that loves 16:20.346 --> 16:21.547 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% everything she has to say when 16:21.547 --> 16:23.248 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% she is sounding like trump but 16:23.248 --> 16:24.750 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I don't think that puts you over 16:24.750 --> 16:26.185 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% 50% even in this district. 16:26.185 --> 16:27.786 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> I would say the people of 16:27.786 --> 16:29.388 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Hamilton, New York are well 16:29.388 --> 16:30.789 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% motivated to get her out of 16:30.789 --> 16:32.091 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% office so she doesn't continue 16:32.091 --> 16:33.892 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% to stain the name of Colgate 16:33.892 --> 16:34.193 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80%

16:36.495 --> 16:36.895 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> That's right. 16:36.895 --> 16:39.598 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And the district did vote for 16:39.598 --> 16:41.800 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% President Trump pretty 16:41.800 --> 16:43.002 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% substantially. 16:43.002 --> 16:45.004 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Unlike Katko's. 16:45.004 --> 16:47.506 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Now, New York, New York State 16:47.506 --> 16:49.108 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% and to an extent national 16:49.108 --> 16:51.510 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% politics were up ended this week 16:51.510 --> 16:53.312 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% with the stunning accusations of 16:53.312 --> 16:55.914 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% assault against now former state 16:55.914 --> 16:58.517 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Attorney General Eric 16:58.517 --> 16:59.018 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Schneiderman. 16:59.018 --> 17:01.020 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% He resigned his position hours 17:01.020 --> 17:02.521 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% after the New Yorkers published 17:02.521 --> 17:03.322 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the allegations. 17:03.322 --> 17:04.923 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% The state legislature will 17:04.923 --> 17:07.226 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% appoint an interim Attorney 17:07.226 --> 17:08.827 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% General possibly as soon as next 17:08.827 --> 17:10.229 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% week. 17:10.229 --> 17:11.530 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% There has been some reporting 17:11.530 --> 17:13.232 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% that this has been kind of an 17:13.232 --> 17:15.234 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% open secret that Schneiderman 17:15.234 --> 17:17.736 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% had sort of a shady personal 17:17.736 --> 17:20.439 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% life and that liberals are being 17:20.439 --> 17:22.241 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% hypocrites for looking the other 17:22.241 --> 17:23.242 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% way. 17:23.242 --> 17:24.843 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Bob Spitzer, that got your 17:24.843 --> 17:25.544 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% attention. 17:25.544 --> 17:26.545 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Well, it did. 17:26.545 --> 17:28.247 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And that criticism doesn't come 17:28.247 --> 17:29.248 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% as a surprise. 17:29.248 --> 17:31.850 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% First Schneiderman was a 17:31.850 --> 17:33.452 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% complete shock, I think he was 17:33.452 --> 17:34.553 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% to most people. 17:34.553 --> 17:35.954 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Secondly particularly in the 17:35.954 --> 17:37.756 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% light of how aggressively he has 17:37.756 --> 17:39.158 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% advanced the idea of legislation 17:39.158 --> 17:40.759 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% or other legal protections to 17:40.759 --> 17:42.361 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% women who do come forward to 17:42.361 --> 17:44.463 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% talk about being harassed and 17:44.463 --> 17:46.065 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% accosted and everything else. 17:46.065 --> 17:47.866 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% But we look at the recent 17:47.866 --> 17:49.468 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% history of these kinds of 17:49.468 --> 17:51.070 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% scandals and how Democrats 17:51.070 --> 17:52.171 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% versus Republicans have 17:52.171 --> 17:52.971 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% responded. 17:52.971 --> 17:55.774 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% So he... so Schneiderman 17:55.774 --> 17:56.975 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% resigned within three hours of 17:56.975 --> 17:58.577 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the story coming out that 17:58.577 --> 18:00.079 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% appeared in the New Yorker, a 18:00.079 --> 18:01.380 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% shocking story by the way, if 18:01.380 --> 18:02.381 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% you can get through it. 18:02.381 --> 18:04.783 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Remember Eliot Spitzer, no 18:04.783 --> 18:06.485 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% relation. 18:06.485 --> 18:09.888 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% He was gone-- he was governor, 18:09.888 --> 18:11.390 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% he was a relation but suddenly 18:11.390 --> 18:14.493 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% he wasn't... Eliot Spitzer 18:14.493 --> 18:15.994 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% resigned within a day. 18:15.994 --> 18:18.197 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Al Franken out in Minnesota was 18:18.197 --> 18:19.398 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% gone within a few days. 18:19.398 --> 18:21.800 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% And those allegations were not 18:21.800 --> 18:24.503 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% quite as clear cut, I think but 18:24.503 --> 18:26.205 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% look at primary Republicans, 18:26.205 --> 18:28.807 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% David vitter, the Republican 18:28.807 --> 18:30.509 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% senator from Louisiana, he hung 18:30.509 --> 18:31.910 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% on, he stayed on. 18:31.910 --> 18:33.412 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% The current governor of 18:33.412 --> 18:35.214 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Maryland, a Republican governor 18:35.214 --> 18:39.818 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Eric greitens. 18:39.818 --> 18:42.020 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Missouri. 18:42.020 --> 18:42.321 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Thank you. 18:42.321 --> 18:44.423 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% He is adamantly denying 18:44.423 --> 18:45.524 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% everything and Republican state 18:45.524 --> 18:48.627 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% legislature is moving ahead with 18:48.627 --> 18:48.827 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% impeachment. 18:48.827 --> 18:51.530 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% That's how bad they want him 18:51.530 --> 18:52.831 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% out. 18:52.831 --> 18:58.137 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Rory Moore, Doug Blankenship-- 18:58.137 --> 19:02.040 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Don Blankenship killed 29 miner 19:02.040 -->

19:07.546 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% kind of scandal but people died 19:07.546 --> 19:10.149 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% because of his lousy stewardship 19:10.149 --> 19:11.550 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% of his own coal mine. 19:11.550 --> 19:13.051 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Those people pursuing higher 19:13.051 --> 19:14.453 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% office are all hanging on. 19:14.453 --> 19:16.955 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% My joke was to a friend of mine 19:16.955 --> 19:19.258 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% that if Schneiderman had been a 19:19.258 --> 19:20.559 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Republican, he would have used 19:20.559 --> 19:23.462 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% the opportunity of announcing 19:23.462 --> 19:26.465 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% his resignation to announce his 19:26.465 --> 19:28.066 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% run for the U.S. Senate if he 19:28.066 --> 19:28.767 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% had been a Republican. 19:28.767 --> 19:30.669 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% Maybe the partisan split I'm 19:30.669 --> 19:31.970 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% describing isn't really there 19:31.970 --> 19:33.572 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% but if you look at the cases, it 19:33.572 --> 19:35.474 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% makes me wonder why and I don't 19:35.474 --> 19:37.075 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% really have a good answer. 19:37.075 --> 19:39.978 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% I just want to wonder why. 19:39.978 --> 19:41.280 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >> Schneiderman is the pinnacle 19:41.280 --> 19:43.582 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% of hypocrisy, for hip to be, you 19:43.582 --> 19:46.585 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% know, pushing this, saying he is 19:46.585 --> 19:48.887 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% going to, you know, prosecute or 19:48.887 --> 19:51.390 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% look into what the Weinstein
