chuck, should centrist democrats be worried? >> i don't think so. i worked on 52 congressional races last year for democrats and i won 32 of them, some of them were left-wing progressives, some were conservative. in each one to have districts in america the constituency looks different and the congressmen or women want to make sure they are adhering to the will of the people and that ain't always the same hits bag, but i will tell you about washington, d.c., it's off based of seniority, old union guy from east texas, sometimes seniority isn't the best thing when you have smart women making sure they are heard, you to wait their time, women don't listen to stuff like that when they want to be heard. >> patrice. >> there's nothing wrong with paying your dues which i guess is what nancy pelosi is trying to say to these young women but i worry about their -- their belligerence here. they represent the activism we have seen on college campuses where they make demands and you know what, it sends a bad message particularly that they're not willing to work

chuck? >> all right. so, pete, this sounds like to me the president was desperate to get the justice department to find a legal way to do this, and they just couldn't do it. is that your sense, number one? and, second, if the president is going to order the census bureau to keep track of american citizenship, as you wrote earlier, it's asking the census bureau to do a job it already does. >> yeah. i think you're right about it that. i think the justice department realized that after the supreme court ruling we couldn't offer for the commerce department to offer another explanation after the story wilbur ross offered was not persuasive, not believable. anything else now commerce does is we still haven't decided why yet. so that was foreclosed and it only -- which is that the government repeatedly told courts including the supreme court that all this had to get wrapped up by the end of june because that's when the printing started. so to come back and say with that the in hand, maybe we have a little more w

chuck, i want to start with you. i don't know how to explain to anyone how all of the information that was available in that 53-page indictment that's described in the miami herald's fantastic body of reporting represents some sharp departure from what they would have found out in the southern district of new york. >> right. so if you look at the southern district of new york indictment, the charged conduct plays between 2002 and 2005. the nonprosecution agreement in the southern district of florida that you just mentioned, nicole, that was in 2007. so on the surface, on the face of it it seems really odd to me because it seems that most of the information available to new york took place long before the southern district of florida resolved the case. and they resolved it in a really odd way. federal prosecutors are not shy about bringing charges against pedestrian files, which what epstein is. and not just allegedly. he pled guilty in florida to charges. >> he's an admitted convicted pedophile. >> you'd have to thin
