Guest host Eddie Arruza and his panel look back on a busy week: in an unprecedented move, former and current gang members call a press conference to push back against Chicago Police Superintendent Jody Weis's secret meeting with them; Mayor Daley and Weis both defend the move while Governor Pat Quinn, U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald and various aldermen are divided over the issue; and will the fallout affect Mayor Daley's presumed re-election bid? Also: on this holiday weekend, airline security strengths and weaknesses are exposed as two men from Yemen are able to travel from Chicago to Amsterdam under suspicious circumstances. And in sports, the White Sox hope slugger Manny Ramirez will spark success in September.
