Were joined by chuck todd this morning. Good morning. I know youre speaking with secretary of state kerry about this. We want to hear more about what he said. First of all, the coalition is strong more committed than ever particularly in the aftermath of the burning of the jordanian pilot. The resounding reaffirmations of commitment throughout the arab world have been heartening and strong. Secretary kerry mentioned this committed coalition. The u. S. Is shouldering a large part of that. In terms of support at home the white house is expected to seek congressional approval for military action in the coming days. How much support is there . I think theres quite a bit of support broadly. The question is when you write this resolution and remember what we have here. The president has two ways to do what hes doing now legally without Congress Without asking for a new resolution. The war powers act itself or they believe they can justify this legally based on the initial war resolution after the 9 11 attacks, dealing with iraq and afghanistan. But the president wants this new resolution. I think when they start trying to write it can you write it broad enough that allows the president to go after isis in countries we havent declared war on but narrow enough that it doesnt seem to give the executive too much power . Thats where i think this is going to get caught up in a lot of heated back and forth. They may end up doing nothing. Saying the president can just use the old resolution. Ukraine is also a major focus. You addressed that with the secretary as well and the u. S. Role there. Things are heating up. Theres some pressure for the u. S. To provide further support, beyond the aid thats already been pledged. What about drumming up support for that . What are the changces of dealing with these both at the same time . There isnt a lot of disagreement between republicans and the Obama Administration on this one. You have the new secretary of defense. Hasnt been confirmed yet, but he says hes in favor of more arms. John kerry in his interview with me he didnt get specific but said he was essentially in favor of helping ukraine deal with this problem with heavier artillery. The split is actually between our western european allies. Its germany and france. I think the aid is going to come but it depends on what happens at this peace conference that germany, france and russia and ukraine will hold on wednesday. Before that well be joining you later this morning for meet the press for more of that interview. Thanks. A major new turn in the murder case featured on a hit podcast.

Now there is new evidence one of his former classmates is willing to testify she saw him in a library at the time of the murder providing an alibi. Neither prosecutors nor lees family returned our request for comment. Syeds current Attorney Says saturday it is the first step in a pretty long process but we are extremely happy. In the podcast, serial, this American Life journalist retraced every aspect of the real life whodunit. As for physical evidence there was none. Reporter poking holes in the prosecutions case questioning the credibility of the states key witness speaking to the defendant from his prison cell he consistently maintained his innocence.
