This time. Rock in the u. S. A. Rock in the u. S. A. Brian South Carolina was the womens championship and go to the North Carolina tar heels to win sixth National Championship last night. Big game. Ainsley it was amazing. Brian what a bracket. Finally done. Ainsley proud of the gamecocks in my house. Heather childers was thrilled because she went to unc. Steve you would know this. Did anyone have a perfect bracket. Brian i dont think its possible. How could you possibly have oregon and gonzaga in the final four . I do know tv newser had a competition going. I know i was win not guilty first couple weeks top three and then i lost interest. Ainsley we did the brackets iin the beginning of march madness. I think we said unc was going to win. I had North Carolina, too. So maybe the brackets looked a little different but the ultimate winner. Steve the middle part kind of a mess. Brian if you open up to page a 16 you have this story. And. Steve and this is it. Turns out we were wondering who in the Obama Administration would have been asking to unmask members of the trump teams names. And as it turns out it is that woman right there. Barack Obamas National Security advisor asked for the ids of Trump Associates unmasked. And then, of course, later, the administration changed the classification of unmasked documents to spread it inside the government. Kind of broke absolutely legal, broke the spirit of the law though. Because then though transcripts and names were leaked to the press which, of course, is a felony. Were not saying she is the leaker. We know she is the unmasker. Ainsley here is the thing though. Remember benghazi . She went on five sunday shows and said bengals was because of that tape. That videotape. That turned out to be false. So the question is can we trust her because she went on a show, pbs, is that right . Pbs just 14 days ago, two weeks ago she says she knows nothing about this. Listen. I know nothing about this. I was surprised to see reports from chairman nunes on that count today. I really dont know to what chairman nunes was referring, but he said that whatever he was referring to was a legal, lawful, surveillance, and that it was potentially incidental collection. Brian its fascinating in that this. Evidently, according to the New York Post today, she made dozens of requests to intel agencies to unmask the personal on the other side of this conversation with some type of foreign entity. So she made multiple requests. She also know there was a big push at the administration to fan out all this information to intel agencies and apparatus around the government as the transition took place. This doesnt exonerate and say this is exactly what President Trump was talking about three weeks ago or a month ago now with that tweet. It does let you understand that there is a sense that conversations were being recorded and transcribed and suddenly this information is out in the public. Even john brennan who was on the bbc yesterday because we are out of outlets here in america for him to talk on. He was out saying the leaks are appalling but so far nothing illegal about the fact that it was happening. Ainsley thats how the left is going to spin it is it legal is it not illegal. Left saying its not unusual for this to happen. Its not unusual for them to unmask. This is not even a gray area. Its black and white. It is illegal for this to be leaked to the press, for the public to see this. Brian thats true. Steve absolutely. Here is why you unmask somebody so that the person in the Intel Community or high official can understand the intel because reading it its like who is this person . Oh, that makes sense. Or if its a u. S. Citizen involved in what could be criminal activity. There is no suggestion that that pertains to the trump team. No obvious reason to unmask other than political curiosity. Senator rand paul saw this information that shes the one who did the unmasking and he tweeted out. This smoking gun found. Obama pal and noted deselm bler susan rice said to have been spying on trump campaign. He also said she needs to be asked under oath did barack obama ask her to do this . She needs to be asked under oath did she reveal this information to the Washington Post . He said i dont think you should be allowed to listen to american conversations without a warrant. Brian former National Security advisor who wanted to be anone news in the New York Times trump looking to deflect essentially on a16. Only conservative outlets are interested in this story. Request the requests are normal and justified, shows a need to stoond the context of these conversations that were handed to her by the intelligence agencies. We do know there was an fbi investigation. One thing would be indisputable is if an american citizen was talking to another american citizens and those recording were taking place and those and that information distributed why if you think about this the big picture. Why is she surveying the opposing partys nominee for president . Brian just pack your stuff up and leave. Ainsley why do that . What was President Trumps Campaign Team doing that was that needed to be surveilled . Steve this is such a big story. Keep in mind the other twin investigation, parallel investigation is about how whether or not russia influenced the u. S. Elections. We get that they are looking into that. But dont you think this is a big story as well. If one political party, essentially is spying on the other and, yet, brian, what page was it on in the New York Times . Brian a16. Steve Mainstream Media big three nbc no time for it. Abc no time for it cbs had 45 second for it sean spicer thinks that this lack of Media Coverage is, well, peculiar and interesting. I think that it is interesting the level of or the lack of interest that i have seen in these developments when it goes in one direction where i think it was going where other amounts of interests that have come from this room and beyond. Im somewhat surprised in terms of the level of interest that i have seen from the press corps. One set of developments versus another set of developments. Brian he doesnt get many questions about that. Ric grenell who has been a guest on this show has a Rich International relations background who might be the next u. S. Ambassador to nato said this. Got to give him credit on the daily two weeks ago he said on sean hannity he said the former state Department Colleagues of mine have been talking about susan rices role for weeks. She and her team were certainly hyper partisan it makes sense. She by far seems to be the angriest exobama official speaking out against the new Trump Administration. Steve jim over at cnn tweeted in this just in the idea that ambassador rice improperly sought the ideas of americans is false according to a person close to rice tells me. Ive heard that the way the democrats are going to handle this after adam schiff went over to the white house and saw the stuff, which apparently shocked him in fact he went reportedly directly to democratic leadership to say how do we handle it . And what they said is our answer is what she did was absolutely legal. And so they went out to the the Washington Post and they went to the New York Times and they said what happened was legal. The unmasking is absolutely legal. But then when you relax the standards so that the information can be spread out to 16 different intel agencies, with the likelihood of it being leaked to the press e which is a felony, that breaks the spirit of the law. Ainsley you are right. Brian if you are devin nunes and you get a call there is a whistleblower that wants to give you information and happens to be on the acreage of the white house not necessarily the white house, do you go over he . Yeah. When you treated, then you realize what you have, you come bang and talk to the press and then the president , and then you talk to the ranking member. It seems a little bit more logical now for devin nunes actions. Steve well, because the big story last week was he got the information from the white house. He went to the white house. Now we can putt the puzzle pieces together because thats where the nsc is. Thats where the request for the unmasking by susan rice took place. See, all the pieces are coming together. The guy who essentially released her name, eli lake from Bloomberg View is going to be with us in about five minutes. Were going to find out what is new today from eli. Brian interesting that alam schiff didnt come out and say there is nothing there. Why wasnt he shown this right away he . Didnt come back and say this was a waste of my time. I wish i could go to the movies. Ainsley you are saying its understandable why nunes did this and didnt include schiff. Steve i think he was shocked what he saw. Which will come out in the next week. Brian revival of healthcare. Possibly revisiting it. Heather childers welcome back. Heather other stuff going on. I. We begin with this breaking news. The manhunt for a wanted cop killer is intensifying. This is brand new video showing the suspects car near the murder scene which is a courthouse in texas. Clint Greenwood Deputy constable was 30 years on the job ambushed in the parking lot. Greenwood who previously served as prosecutor and defense attorney recently said that he felt threatened by a man in the past case. A 65,000 reward now being offered. Some extreme weather pounding the south. Death toll climbing to 5 after powerful storms ripped through. One of the victims killed after suspected tornado sent his mobile home flying through the air in South Carolina. Look at that and then outside atlanta. Three firefighters very lucky to be alive after a twister blows the roof right off their fire station. The deadly storms are now moving up the east coast. And the senate will begin debating today on Supreme Court nominee Justice Nominee judge neil gorsuch. And this shaping up to be a fight of historic proportions. Democrats claim that they have enough votes to block his confirmation. But Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell vowing to push him through by friday, promising the nuclear option. And finally, an pandemonium in the streets of franklin street. Thousands of tarheel fans storming the streets celebrating the Ncaa National champs. Matthews, off the mark. And this is the confetti is going to fall for North Carolina. Theyre not going to be denied this time. Heather not this time. Gonzaga failing to hit a last minute jump shot. Unable to claw their way back. This marks their sixth championship victory. It was utter heart break, of course, other side of the coinel for the bulldog fans. Many of them weeping at the final buzzer. All the teams, all of them that made it to the final four including South Carolina, they are great. Ainsley our womens team we won. That was good. Steve gonzaga heart break first time at the dance. Brian steady powers being challenged. So many good schools. Straight ahead.

Tom brady stolen super bowl jersey now back with the rightful owner. He knows what it smells like and it smells like that but not before being stolen one more time no one wants to be defeated show us your fight it doesnt matter whos wrong or right just beat it beat it befi was active. Gia, i was energetic. Then the chronic, widespread pain drained my energy. My doctor said moving more helps ease fibromyalgia pain. He also prescribed lyrica. Fibromyalgia is thought to be the result of overactive nerves. Lyrica is believed to calm these nerves. For some, lyrica can significantly relieve fibromyalgia pain and improve function, so i feel better. Lyrica may cause serious allergic reactions or suicidal thoughts or actions. Tell your doctor right away if you have these, new or worsening depression, or unusual changes in mood or behavior. Or swelling, trouble breathing, rash, hives, blisters, muscle pain with fever, tired feeling, or blurry vision. Common side effects are dizziness, sleepiness, weight gain and swelling of hands, legs and feet. Dont drink alcohol while taking lyrica. Dont drive or use machinery until you know how lyrica affects you. Those who have had a drug or alcohol problem may be more likely to misuse lyrica. With less pain, i can be more active. Ask your doctor about lyrica. Better than a manual, and my hygienist says it does. But. Theyre not all the same. Turns out, theyre really. Different. Who knew . I had no idea. So, she said look for.

Former National Security advisor to barack obama, susan rice, high level official in the administration, requested to unmask the names of Trump Officials indicate up in surveillance. Joining us right now is Bloomberg News columnist eli lake who broke the news with the name yesterday. Eli, thanks for joining us. Thanks for having me on. Steve what would be the need to unmask other than political curiosity. If you knew of an ongoing terrorist plot there. There was some type of terrorist plot and neated to unmask server or institution being used taken over to launch that attack. Steve none of that applies to the trump team. Right. And then e of course, like because its a little bit muddy at this point devin nunes said the reports he saw didnt have anything to do with russia. I was unable to confirm that too. There was ongoing fbi Counter Intelligence probe on russia and trump. That would be reason to do it. The real scandal here is that the bar is so lowe low just to show there is a foreign intelligence value could mean almost anything that i think the real scandal here is that how long is this kind of thing been going on and how long has a senior white house officials been able to do this . How many other people, lets just take trump out of it we know that when the israeli leaders were legally surveilled that members of congress and other people in jewish organizations in 2015 were picked up during a bitter fight over the iran deal. What are some other examples where incidentally collected stuff was making its way to the white house that would have basically had a political value but not a National Security value and do we need to reform the law that called fisa that allows you to collect this stuff in the fall in order to make sure this kind of thing doesnt happen . Steve you are saying its bigger than trump . Really a story about how easy it is to learn the identities of americans who are incidentally collected and now we know from how this whether that can be abused by one party for some sort of political advantage. Steve sure. Those are things we should reform i would imagine. I dont understand why democrats are not more interested in that considering usually they do have an abiding interest in things like privacy and abuse of surveillance power and things like that. Steve and if this is okay, then whats to stop trump from doing it to his political adversaries . I have been making that point in my columns for like a month now and im getting very few answers from my democratic friends who basically are still of saying nothing to see here. Steve what about in houston . You know, he took a lot of heat now, his story is starting to be cleared why he took the route that he did. Adam schiff surprisingly quiet since he went to the white house on friday. Adam schiff has been quiet. He is a careful lawyer. Knows the stuff. Has dealt with the stuff before as a prosecutor. He is mainly limited his critique not to the substance of the allegation but rather to the way in which the information was shared, which was unusual in terms of devin nunes seeing it and him not sighing it and not going through a kind of formal process. Steve well, it is curious, because it does look to some like the Obama Administration may have abused domestic or surveillance for political purposes and that should trouble all of us. Well, i mean, again, i am really surprised we havent seen more democrats showing at least curiosity in it because, again, if the Obama White House can do it then one can imagine the Trump White House can do it, too. Steve there you go. Elie lake who bro
