we re standing by with democratic senator ben cardin. senator, there is another piece of information. president trump lets part of his travel ban go into effect. jessica, update our viewers on what happened. reporter: the surprise in all of this was the split, the fact that the supreme court let parts of this travel ban stand while at the same time saying that four nationals with some connection to this country, they can come in. that was somewhat unexpected, and that s exactly what has led to both sides in this case claiming at least a partial victory. in the unsigned opinion, the court sided with the government in part, temporarily barring entry from foreign nationals who are unable to make a credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the united states. i think it s clear from the decision that most of the justices think that the lower court decisions went a bit too
beings. crash and burn, what does that mean for people in the hospital? what does that mean for people who had to declare bankruptcy before obamacare came in for their health care costs? what does that mean with preexisting conditions? i mean, letting it crash and burn, you know, if you re president of the united states, you re supposedly responsible for the health care and everything else in the country. so, the idea that the president could say, well, let it crash and burn, i mean, it s just inconceivable. let me say on this crash and burn point, part of the reason that the health care exchanges have a problem right now is because the president is burning them down by withholding subsidies. insurance companies need and patients need to make the exchanges work. and by withholding them, he is forcing insurance companies to make a difficult decision to either stay in a market with uncertainty or get out. so, he is a bit of an arsonist now claiming to be the firing
he hosts india s prime minister over at the white house. looking at live pictures coming into the rose garden. he s already sounded off on the supreme court decision and the russia investigation. let s go to senior russian correspondent jim acosta. he s feeling very good about that decision. they re running a few minutes behind already. this isn t a press conference. they won t be taking questions even though this has very much the feel of a rose garden news conference. as you were saying a few moments ago about the president s travel ban, yes, they re certainly feeling victorious at the white house after the supreme court upheld part of that travel ban, will allow it partly to go into effect. the president still very much playing defense on the subject of russia. that s how it sounded earlier, or at least sounded when it was held off camera. president trump is all but declaring victory after the supreme court gave a temporary
last we don t know. the written statement says today s unanimous supreme court decision is a clear victory for our national security. then he explains why he blooelis that. i m also glad that the supreme court s decision was 9-0. jeffrey toobin, to be precise, there were six documents who have one opinion, three justices have a different opinion, right? that s right, but the three justices wanted to agree with donald trump completely. and it was the nine others who agreed with him somewhat. so i think it is fair for donald trump to take credit for unanimous support, at least, for part of his decision. and i think the fact that three justices wanted to end any sort of stay, who wanted to ratify the executive order completely bodes pretty well for his chances when the case is argued on the merits in the fall. because he s already got three
from a final decision as the court decides to hear full arguments in october. and demanding an apology. president trump admits russia interfered in the u.s. presidential election but insists the only collusion or obstruction came from president obama, and he s now demanding an apology. i m wolf blitzer. you re in the situation room. breaking news, the numbers are just out from the nonpartisan congressional budget office estimating that in less than a decade the senate republican health care bill would leave 22 million americans without health care insurance than under obamacare. within just a year, 15 million more people would be without health insurance compared to obamacare. five republican senators oppose the bill right now, and others are on the fence. senate republican leaders are insisting on a vote this week.
