Joshua MilesHOST

Joseph Paul FranklinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Chicago at that time, headed toward Indiana, and I stopped in Fort Wayne that night, and it just happened here on the news that Vernon Jordan was speaking at the Marriott Motel.
Joseph Paul FranklinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
At such and such time, I thought, well, if he's speaking at the motel, he's probably staying at the motel.
Joseph Paul FranklinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
So I called the motel up from my motel room.
Joseph Paul FranklinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I said, could you tell me what room number Vernon Jordan is in? She said, sir, that's against policy.
Joseph Paul FranklinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I can't do that.
Antoine SeawrightPANELIST
No one gave two flying kites about who Nancy Pelosi met with when she was leader, and no one knew who she met with, so I think it's unfair to try to criticize Hakeem.
Antoine SeawrightPANELIST

AdamHOST
And after he resigns, Hubbell takes a job as a private contract consultant that's arranged by the Clinton friend and also, I believe, lawyer of Hillary, Vernon Jordan.
AdamHOST
This is weird.
AdamHOST
Remember Vernon Jordan's name, remember Hubbell's name because it's going to come into this whole Kenneth Starr shit, and it, it's bad.
AdamHOST
So, he ends up pleading guilty of mail fraud and tax evasion in December of 1994.
AdamHOST
He refuses to cooperate.
AdamHOST
And from the outside looking in, they're saying, well, he was...
AdamHOST
He resigns, and then Vernon Jordan, the close personal friend of Bill and Hillary, finds him these consulting jobs.
Robert KabushengaHOST
I was going to give the best example of an informal arrangement.

So when I look at, say, you and Candace, I just got one sentence.

David RubensteinGUEST
Vernon Jordan asked me to succeed him.
David RubensteinGUEST

David RubensteinGUEST
And they were boring.
