[ laughter ] lemonis: there are some real issues here. alex wants to tell a story. alex: man cave all day, right? you sitting there, watching chicago running. lemonis: but candidly needs a lot of focus. alex: you send us your dimensions. you call in. we speak to everybody. everything is custom. lemonis: and you have brad, who's preparing for his nap. how you doing? i need people like you to give me feedback. what did you ask when you walked up? chris: what it was, what the product was, what does it do. pictures kind of say, "i'm selling speakers and equalizers." lemonis: thank you, buddy. we'll see you soon. -chris: yeah, definitely. -lemonis: good luck. i want your honest answer. do you think that you're properly prepared to sell? alex: uh, no. brad: you're definitely pointing out that we need to have a tighter pitch

alex was facing life in prison. and finally after four long years. >> is this the verdict of each and every one of the members of the jury? >> here it was. >> in the case we, the jury, find the defendant not guilty. >> not guilty. the words alex and his family had been waiting to hear. even his veteran defense attorneys couldn't hold it together. >> i held off crying until bill started crying. he started it and that's what sent me over the edge. >> and one never cries if you think your client's guilty. you don't. >> on the other side of the courtroom emily's family and friends could barely move. with the verdict the divide between these two families became complete. a celebration across the aisle became too much for emily's mother to take. >> shut up. >> i went in shock. all i can remember is people jumping up and down like cheerleaders. i didn't know until afterwards that i told them to shut up. >> as they left the courtroom, the reality of what had happened sank in. back inside alex said he felt far from victoriou

alex: you don't have to. you're not gonna be disappointed with the material you don't get because you know it's really tough stuff, and you're not expected to get it. those contestants, they'll get it because we know they're bright. they have to take a big test in order to be on the show. but we have a lot of pop culture material now. music, movies, stuff like that. that you can relate to. you go to the movies, you listen to music. i love that you're pointing at me when we're talking about the easier ones. thank you. - all right. - you know how i did in "high rollers," clearly. - yeah, well. - ( laughs ) harvey: 34 years it's been on the air with you. 7,600 episodes. does it get old for you ever? - alex: never. - harvey: why? because every day we have new contestants, every day we have new material. the format is the same. so, i feel very comfortable in that format. i've settled into it. and i like it, and i can relax with it. and because i can do that, i can fool around. - alex: nerdcore hip-hop. - hip-hop.

and what about ben raymond and alex davies? they have been under police investigation for 15 months. is it not of concern to you that alex davies has been promoting srn through an online radio network? absolutely, so extreme right—wing activity in any form, whether it's as part of a proscribed organisation or a looser network, is extremely concerning. where we have evidence of that taking place, we will always investigate. if people are broadcasting hate messages, and there's criminal law that is breached, we will investigate and prosecute — there is nowhere to hide. they believe they have a right to their views and to free speech, but mp stephen doughty, who sits on the commons home affairs committee, has reported radio aryan and comments made to the police. this is free speech that is too damaging for the rights of others. you cannot have liberty to impinge on the liberty of others, and i think a lot of these organsiations hide behind that when in reality they are allowing disgusting and hateful content to exist. he's ask

lenny: alex, you seem like you want to respond. alex: there is a lot to respond to there, honestly. in terms of naloxone, we heard earlier from the surgeon general that we need to not just have it in the hands of emts and law enforcement. they may not get there in time. like he said, four or five minutes. that is a tall order especially in rural areas. we do need naloxone in hands of every american honestly as much as we can. it is inexpensive. there is no risks associated. we were the first people to evaluate community-based naloxone in 2001. we conducted the first pilot study. i think that is the thing we need to think about. we have seen over the years with the hiv epidemic, that was huge. we need to think of new solutions. ok, lets stopsay, drug abuse. they did not change the hiv epidemic. lenny: that is why we came up with needle exchange and naloxone distribution. alex: which is something that came from the community. once it was shown to be effective over time, governments decided this is something that we need to fund. lenny: fentanyl strips now. alex: same thing is true of

alex: exactly. lenny: yeah, and fentanyl strips, allowing people to test their drugs before consuming them. all of these things. there's a spectrum. ok, there are a number of them that you are in favor of. tell us which ones and why. alex: well, you know, as a researcher, there is a number of harm-reduction strategies i have been evaluating over the years. i've spent the last 25 years doing research in the community and evaluating programs already being incremented in the communities. that includes needle-exchange programs that you pointed out. it has also included fentanyl test strips, as well. medically assisted treatment, any of these. supervised consumption sites. all of these are programs i evaluated. lenny: and what does the research tell us? alex: well, what the research u.s.,us is that in the syringe access programs have been incredibly helpful to reduce infectious diseases like hiv and hepatitis and also link people to other services. that's something that was talked about in the last panel

desk welcome derek now this was astro alex the man known as esther alex a second mission into space why did e.s.a. the european space agency choose him to command the mission i think for a variety of different reasons first of all he proved very competent and the first mission and second of all he's a very charismatic person and he's fantastic at public relations he was really really good on the first mission so putting him in basically in the commander's

. >> i'm alex marquardt. happy new year's eve. great to close out the 2018 with you. >> this is great. >> we are going to start with president trump who may be hedging on his timeline to pull all u.s. troops out of syria. republican senator lindsey graham has a better understanding of the stakes in syria. graham characterized the pullout as an obama-like mistake. >> 2,000 troops are supposed to leave syria in the coming weeks and months. mr. graham says the president is not pausing completely, but committed to a fresh assessment to see what happens on the ground in syria. >> i think we are in a pause situation where we are reevaluating the best way to an achieve the president's objective of having people pay more and do more. after discussions with the president and general dunford, i am never better on where we are headed. the goal is the same. to leave syria and make sure isis never comes back. our partners are taken care of and iran is contained. i think that is possible. >> those partners that graham is referring to is the kur

alex acosta, secretary of labor. he became secretary of labor in the trump administration under sort of unusual circumstances. trump was sworn in on january 20th of last year. you'll recall that only about three weeks later on february 14th, national security advisor mike flynn resigned in what was a huge scandal at the time and actually a pretty big mystery at the time. we're still experiencing the repercussions of that scandal around mike flynn and the circumstances of his resignation and what ultimately became his guilty felony plea and his cooperation deal with prosecutors. as i mentioned a few moments ago, we are expecting a considerable leap in the drama on the mike flynn case. in fact tomorrow, when we're expecting a sentencing memo from the special counsel's office related to mike flynn. but back in february of last year when the dust was still rising from the shock mike flynn resignation and everybody trying to figure out how serious this was and what it meant, in the midst of that fury, the day after the fl

alex your take. well alex you go first england you follow. unfortunately i cut out a little bit at the beginning so but i'll just go back to your original question about an unmet medical. question about this experiment in china specifically does not meet that criteria there are so many ways that are established and proven to prevent transmission of the hiv virus and this is was not one of them not to mention you know there was the babies weren't going to be infected with the virus they were using one of these other methods that were already proven so they were curing them of anything that they already had as i would the definition of a medical need something that was already going to be in their genetic code and this didn't meet that i think glenn can probably talk more about the other side of the coin which is enhancement and whether we should be looking at a different ethical code for what comes if there's no on met a medical need if it counts as something that's different. or more that on. both glen and theodore not in their heads glenn. t

alex and alison. >> miguel, thank you very much. for you heading to times square and elsewhere, wonder what the weather will be like? here is meteorologist pedram javaheri. >> alison and alex, good morning. happy new year. take a look at what is happening across the east coast. serious weather shaping up across the east coast as it relates to heavy rainfall and strong thunderstorms and a wintry mix and snow to be had as well. to the northeast and new york city. yeah, this is what it looks like. 49 degrees at midnight. rain showers probable across the region. begins at 4:00 p.m. and continuing in the overnight hours of monday and tuesday morning. if it plays out as forecast, the first time since 1994 we had wet weather at midnight for new year's eve at times square. it will be one of the warmest ones as well. compare to the windchill on new year's eve last year as we rung in 2018. 6 below is what it felt like. 45 degrees is what it will feel like this morning going into tomorrow morning in portions of new york city. that's the perspe

alex: same thing is true of naloxone. the hero said we need to give this to the people in the late 1990's. he started training people. we did the research to show it worked and now it is a pillar of the administration. we need to think about this in terms of looking at these innovative strategies. allowing them to happen. as social experiments. if they work, that is how we will deal with 70,000 americans dying in the next year. >> the law that makes supervised consumption sites illegal in the united states was passed in the 1980's. it was mostly aimed at crack houses as a way to keep people from opening crack houses or using drugs in crack houses. evernot think it was intended to keep volunteers and medical professionals from setting up a site like you guys have been describing to keep people alive before they go into treatment. why do we need this law? why don't we try to do something can dohat so that people pilot projects and not be in violation of federal law? david: i am not opposed to using naloxone. important tool.

>> i think it's really dangerous on two levels, alex. i think it is dangerous for him personally, because if he's actually interfering in any way, ins insinuating what should be done, insinuating he wants to take it off what would be its natural course, that is a legal problem for him. but it's more problematic for the precedent it sets up for our administration of justice and for our legal structures, that you have a president who has been told he is a subject of the investigation, that he is -- that if he is taking steps to move it away from him or direct it any direction, he is interfering with the administration of justice in a way that undermines the whole process now and undermines it in the future because now this precedent has already been set and broken and it's a real problem. >> okay, so rebecca, there is an unnamed company owned by an unknown foreign government now suggesting to take its subpoena battle with what is believed to be the special counsel all the way to the supreme court. is the supreme court under any legal oblig
