Human trafficking, drugs, money laundering, all kinds of complex crimes. what do these guys think are going to happen if they just fire everybody? all of a sudden, someone else is going to spring up, it is perfect? i dont even understand how this would work. who enforces the federal law, well we are busy going out and finding hundreds of guys who work in sheriffs departments, in some rural community, that they say go trump, and they try to train them to do some of the most complex legal work, in...

Is going to spring up, it is perfect? i dont even understand how this would work. who enforces the federal law, well we are busy going out and finding hundreds of guys who work in sheriffs departments, in some rural community, that they say go trump, and they try to train them to do some of the most complex legal work, investigative work in the world. i do not even understand how they could say this with a straight face. >> i think that is such an important point to make, which is what they are ...

Perfect? i dont understand how this would work. who enforces federal law while were busy finding hundreds and hundreds of guys that work in sheriffs departments in some rural community that say go trump and try to train them to do the most investigative work in the world. i dont know how they can say this with a straight face. >> yeah, i think that is such an important point to make, which is what theyre proposing is actually on its face ludicrous. dahlia, the theory about the unified executive ...

Rot inside the republican party. john mccain had this function around foreign policy. all those voices have been muzzled or converted. i want to read more from your reporting, charlie. like other conservatives, clark adheres to the executive theory which holds the president of the united states has the power to directly control the entire federal bureaucracy. congress cannot fracture that control by giving some officials independent decision making authority. there are debates among conservative...

Administration. i think that with a right-leaning supreme court, with people who are strong proponents of the unified executive theory, that is going to be a hard piece of information for them to digest. i dont think that theyre going to agree with that. so its not that the justice department is looking to the 11th circuit, they may be looking beyond, as well. there is a feeling amongst people all across the department, inside, outside, former, current, that this is not a reading that most conse...

Stay and done what jeffrey rosen did. its hard for me, given his history, to really give a lot of credit to bill barr. i dont think we know the answer. i think matt hit the nail on the head saying that the real issue here is what kind of reforms were going to have and what kind of transparency were going to have. one of the things that your question raises is, a, we dont know the facts yet and all of them. and it really is for garland to step up and for congress to step up, because the public is...

Waco. she challenged him. >> and this is one of the things that eric holder disagreed with was bill barrs explanation. unified executive theory at the federalist society and eric holder disagreed and said that they theyre quasi independent. and all the power is manifested in the united states and everyone else is derivative of that. neil: you seem to know a lot about the law. thank you. >> thank you. neil: matt whitaker, i hope you have a merry christmas, my friend. and impeachment articles to t...

Updates and let me refresh my memory, too much of that on substantive matters will get you indicted. >> i agree with you both. defiance is all thats left for giuliani, pompeo, mulvaney, perry. no coincidence in paragraph two of the executive summary, guess who gets called out as potential co-conspirators, perry, mulvaney, pompeo. ag barr thinks that the president cant be investigated, indicted, tried, convicted or imprisoned because of this crazy executive theory. there is no such thing as an ol...

Just on my own declare this investigation illegitimate. what the judge appears to have done is huh-uh, not in america. you have legitimate investigations by the congress of the united states and those will go forward, and you will provide that evidence and testimony. >> and, neal, the other thing that im reading as im going through this, and its always tricky to read a case on live tv. but we do it from time to time, all of us here together, so ride with us. on page 39, i see a judge really sled...

Constitution. the rest of us dont believe in this executive theory, that the president and the attorney general seem to believe in. that the president can do anything he wants. congress has oversight rights. they have the tax and spend because, they allocated the money for ukraine. the president held up that aid money. this is a very clear violation of the separations of duty. ambassador bolton hold the key to a lot of the secrets. >> harris: we may or may not hear from him before his book comes...
