Reporter the aclu is working with the Prince Georges CountyPolice Officers who have filed a complaint with the department. The concerns that were raised by the officers speak terribly they reflect poorly upon the department if they in fact turn out to be true. Reporter more than 70 minority officers have signed onto the complaint.

He also fired the acting attorney general. He announced a new Supreme Court candidate and traveled to dover to witness the dignified transfer of the First Service member to die under his watch. Just today the president imposed new sanctions on iran as punishment for its recent missile test. A busy two weeks. Meet the press mod erator chuck todd is here. Paul ryan is very supportive of them. Im not surprised hes supportive. Theres bipartisan support in congress for more new sanctions. Former president obama was kind of in the minority in town, in washington when it cams e to ir. This acceptance that iran deal, that the nuclear tale is in place. The words that speaker ryan used to me is enforce it vigorously. Its essentially the same signal the Trump Administration has sent. Today the Justice Department said somewhere around the order of 100,000 visas had been revoked just this week alone. Now the aclu is demanding to know how the government is enforcing this immigration order. Look, i think that it was clear the courts were going to end up being where this got settled and i think that is where this is were still i think were still in that move. And i think the more that you see numbers like that come out look, you dont know what a judge is going to do. But this has had the whiff of stay on it meaning that a judge will say lets pause the enforcement of it while we figure out whats legal, not. It just feels like thats where this is headed. Now, weve seen this with other executive orders that president obama signed. Meanwhile so many people are kind of in limbo because of it. Especially the visa hole der obviously. Democratic senators are under a lot of pressure to block the nomination of neil gorsuch because they call it a stolen seat on the Supreme Court. Will republicans go with the Nuclear Option that has been talked about all week . I think its in Chuck Schumers hands. Its really not in Mitch Mcconnells hands. In the washington we have gotten to know over the last 20 years neil gorsuch is the in the mainstream of conservative judicial thought. He is somewhere between john roberts and scalia. Anit confirmation. But the base of the party is angry. There are senators that are angry the way Mitch Mcconnell handled the garland thing. There isnt a debate about gorsuch. The debate is about the process. The base of the Democratic Party wants democrats to essentially use the republican play book. And i think the base is dragging reluctant Democratic Senators to that position. And if that. Happens, i think Mitch Mcconnell is going to feel pressure from his own base to do that. The unintended sequence is going to be a fractured court system, a senate that is no longer dlib r deliberative. The liberal republicans and the bases of the two Political Parties are willin if they dont play the zero sum game these days. Its already gotten ugly. A lot of people are wondering if President Trumps Foreign Policy team is on the same page. Listen to what Ambassador Nikki Haley said to the u. N. Security counsel. We do want to better our relations with russia. However, the dire situation in Eastern Ukraine is one that dplan demands clear and strong congressional democr condemnation. Is she on the same team as what weve heard coming out of the white house . Thats a big deal, that she connected. Sanctions arent getting lifted until crimea is returned to ukraine. That is the strongest statement weve heard anywhere. Candidate donald trump was has even said, hey, look, the folks that live in prefer to be with the russians. He implied that during the campaign. Yes it seems to be a departure from what candidate trump said. I think what youre seeing is the advisors around him are having some influence on him and maybe hes seeing a fuller picture on whats happening. Frankly, you know, it bothered a lot of republicanins that right after President Trump had his phone call with vladimir putin, russia amped up their military combat in ukraine. And i think that shook the white house a little bit and i think thats what led to that statement. I think it means that he may have a personal relationship with some individuals in russia that he wants to have a positive relationship like vladimir putin. But i think our country to country relationship is in a bad place. So many dramatic things happening, its hard to keep up.
