Say the bureau actually opened a case on donald j. trump is really hitting the american people in the gut. it means likely, joy, even though the article is citing the public behavior of the president, as you just noted, in order to get this to pass muster to fbi headquarters across the department of justice to be the title name of an investigation, i am virtually certain that more evidence than just the public behavior of the president is involved in this, and i think that evidence is likely cla...

Courts. >> last hour you said you think legally that will pass muster. >> i do. given the breadth of the statute that gives the president emergency powers, he could declare an emergency and start spending money on the wall. it would be without precedent in american history. many emergencies have been dekrd declared since the 1970s but never one where congress explicitly refused to do what the president wanted and the president used the powers to do it anyway. thats whats different. its very easy...

They cant all be true. but maybe, eventually, one of them will be? with us, "time" magazine con tributer, jane newton small, and white house reporter, ta talu ranif. i want to start with the president saying he may declare a national emergency, the second time he has threatened this in the last few days. talu, is this a real possibility? >> its something being discussed in the white house. its difficult to see how the president could get this to pass legal muster. obviously, there are people wit...

Whats your reaction to that? >> over the past two years, the president has issued a litany of threats against private companies, political opponents, other countries. and to me it was a throwaway line in response to a question. im sure theres a lot of lawyering going on right now. in the end hell realize he cant do legally what he wants to do or its not worth the political success. as we saw over the last two years, this president had to scale back his travel ban several times in order to pass m...

Sending the wrong message and only bolsters putin and the iranians? >> i could not disagree more strongly, because if you follow that logic, we will have to be there forever. the fact is this is syrias country. this is not our country to just go in and stay as we wish. the other thing thats really important to point out, we dont need a handful of troops on the ground to contain iran. our conventional and nuclear deterrent against iran is so overwhelmingly stronger than anything they could ever m...

Done," trump said, according to the source. >> it illustrates the tumultuous situation were in. theres going to have to be a new secretary of defense thats going to have to be confirmed and will have to satisfy enough democratic senators on capitol hill. mitch mcconnell praised mattis world view and urged the president to pick someone in the mold of mattis, essentially. thats what a lot of republican senators are hoping for. the problem is its mattis world view that got him canned by the preside...

>> weve led in others and a couple other ags lead in others and in each case weve won. the only case that you could argue that the ags have lost is the muslim ban case where the first two iterations were declared to be unconstitutional and the third that added korea and venezuela was found to past muster. >> so the presidents fate may come down to whether a sitting president can be indicted. people said its a matter of precede precedent. where do you stand? can a president corps not a president?...
