They are set to drill into barr about his motivations behind writing that memo, we know that barr sent the memo to several members of the president s legal team.

Lets ask a former d1 stud Football Player what that might be like. Coy wire is here with the bea Bleacher Report. Is three hamburgers good for an athlete . Probably not great for the system, the temple if you will. And i will say training tables, they can be pretty nice at the collegiate level. Were talking steaks and seafood. So these guys are used to eating well. And they were celebrating their win over alabama and their Second National title in three years. Yesterday occurriduring their t the white house, yes, a fast food feast on the president s dime. Were talking mcdonalds, burger king, wendys, stacks of burgers. And here is the reasoning for the menu choice. So i had a choice. Do we have no food for you because we have a shutdown . Or do we give you some little quick salads that the first lady will make along with the second lady, they will make some salle lads. And i said you guys arent into salads. Or do i go out, emergency and t emergen Lindsey Graham and tim scott, do i send out for hamburgers, big macs. Everything that i like, that you like. And i know no matter what we did, there is nothing that you could have that is better than that. All right. So social media was buzzing. A lot of people wondered did the players actually like it. I reached out to Patrick Godfrey and he sent us this video. Listen for yourself. President trump said that fast food would probably be our favorite food. We have a little bit more high taste than that. Were steak and lobster kind of guys here at clemson. But i got to tell you, the fast food really hit the spot. Really enjoyed it. So there you go. Nothing but the best. It is not about the body being a temp spell, but fast food didnt travel that well. That was my problem with it. Pizza does, but you leave a burger sitting for a few minutes and you notice the pizza when it was lifted, there wasnt really stringy cheese. But these guys, they are at a multimilliondollar facilities. They get custom made smoothies. So they are used to really good foot. But as pat said, it was a good trip. Now, college hoops. An surd thr absurd three quarter buzzer beater. Look at this thing. That is from the opposite three point line. That is elijah hughes. He had to actually move around the rafter, the scoreboard up there in the middle of the court to be able to get this shot off. Look at that. Everyone in the building knew when that happened it was going to be a special night. They pull off the win in overtime and this is at duke. Number one Blue Devils Team that never lost at home to an unranked team. They were 900. Jaw dropper indeed. And yesterday i said im inviting you down for the super bowl. I talked to claire, you can stay at her house and shell give you the president ial treatment. Waffle house for breakfast and if you are good, krispy kreme for dessert. That sounds good. We have to go. It is rude now if we dont go. Coy wire, thank you so much. William barr poised to oversee the russia probe if appointed.

I could eat two actually. Welcome back to early start. It is 31 past the hour. Lets begin here. Now it is on the record, the president of the United States says he is not a russian agent. I never worked for russia. And you know that answer better than anybody. I never worked for russia. Not only do i never work for russia, i think it is a disgrace that you even ask that question. Because it is a whole big fat hoax. It is just a hoax. So now that is settled. But scrutiny of the president just intensifies. Cnn has confirmed Washington Post reporting after a 2017 meeting with russia president Vladimir Putin in germany, mr. Trump confiscated his own interpreters notes and told him not to share anything with anybody. This all happened the same day the New York Times called the white house to ask about the 2016 trump tower meeting between Trump Campaign officials and russians. The next day the president dictated a misleading statement on the trump tower meeting saying it was about adoption. The same way he described his earlier meeting with putin. Meantime the president s legal team has rejected requests from Robert Mueller for an inperson interview with the president to ask followup questions. In november the trump Team Provided limited answers to a limited number of questions focused on the period before mr. Trump took office. One course says thsource says m satisfied. Russia expected to be a hot topic when trumps he pick to attorney general appears before the senate today. There will be likely contenders for the white house in 2020 on the democratic side. Amy klobuchar, am kamala harrisd cory booker. And on the republican side, Lindsey Graham becomes chairman, Marsha Blackburn and joni ernst brk t become the first republican women to serve on the committee. William barr has provided a preview of his testimony. Reporter a big day on capitol hill that will likely be quite contentious as the president s pick for attorney general faces the Senate Judiciary committee. William barr will promise that he will let the Mueller Probe go forward and that he will be transparent. Barr will also explain why he wrote that 19 page memo to the Justice Department that many have read as barr concluding that the president cannot obstruct justice by firing the fbi director, but barr will tell senators that he often weighs in on legal issues of public importance and that his ultimate conclusion was not that the president cant obstruct justice, but the question is whether that explanation be enough for democrats. They are set to drill into barr about his motivations behind writing that memo, we know that barr sent the memo to several members of the president s legal team. And several will ask will it compromise his oversight of the Mueller Probe. All right. Thanks. Joining us this morning, elliott hoenig, cnn analyst. Good to see you. So bill barr, this is not his first rodeo. He knows how to assure the senate that he will let bob mueller do his job, allow that report to see light of day. What is the most important question these Senate Democrats need to press him on . So the senators on both sides of the aisle need to focus on obstruction of justice. His memo focuses on the obstruction of justice theory. Barr writes that it cannot be obstruction of justice for the president to have fired james comey and to pressure james comey to drop the Michael Flynn investigation. In the memo barr calls this theory fatally misconceived and he calls it asinine. So are you saying he is free to fire whoever he wants, is the president free to try to stop an investigation if it threatens you . And in fact barr says the president may shut down an investigation without Legal Recourse even if he has his own personal stake in it. Now, barr has tried to an tis pay the this and he said my theory of obstruction is a narrow one. Yeah, but it is exactly what mueller is looking at. Supporters of barr will say that he has made these private analyses before to different administrations where he has offered mi his expertise. But senator mark warner, this is what he says. Our country deserves better than an attorney general who auditioned for the job by attacking that investigation. Under our constitutional system, no someone above the law, not even the president. We need an attorney general willing to vigorously defend this principle. Yeah, the audition i think is the big concern. Why did he write this memo. It is a 19 page singlespaced memo, must have taken dozens if not hundreds hours. And you vetted it through the Trump Lawyers in advance. And he did it when he was a private person at a law firm, on his own, uninvited. So it is a strange exercise. And he is pretty aggressive in his attacks on mueller. And he shouldnt be allowed to run away from his own words now and i hope that the senators again republicans and democrats alike dont accept these sort of coached up lawyered up dodges that we see so often. Put his own words in front of him from that memo, say do you still stand by what you said here. But not only do they have the numbers, they have Matthew Whitaker and that is why Senate Democrats ultimately have to confirm bill barr. Last thing they want is Matthew Whitaker overseeing this russia probe at a time that the Mueller Probe is made public. I agree william barr is more qualified and has fewer problems with his impartiality. I guess the question then, political question, are you satisfied with someone who is better or do you want someone who is sort of ideal. Is better good enough or are we going to hold out from the democrats poimts of vi s point someone who is perfect. This is a republican president and he gets to nominate a republican. He has the credentials, but the memo raises a lot of concerns. Lets talk about House Democrats for a minute. You start hearing people talk about maybe subpoenaing the notes from this interpreter who was in this oneonone meeting with the president and putin. There were five facetoface meetings with putin and the president. We didn we dont know what was said and the secrecy of the president actually taking the notes and saying dont ever tell anybody what happened in here, this is what congressman jim hime said. The white house will claim executive privilege, thats what they did with pretty much all of the white house witnesses that we called in. So were in a world of litigation and contempt proceedings and working on what exactly executive privilege comprises. And it will be a while. The president could just clear it up and release those notes say exactly what happened. But do you think there is a legal standing at all to try to get those notes . It is an interesting legal question. If there is a subpoena served and very likely trumps team will assert executive privilege, now were into unknown legal territory. Here is my read on it. On the one hand executive privilege is designed to protect communications between the president and his own top advisers. His lawyer. His attorney general, his cabinet members, his chief of staff. And to argue that now we should extend that to foreign heads of state . That is a serious extension of executive privilege and i think that it seems unlikely. On the other hand, this is sort of conversely, the Richard Nixon decision from 1974 is really the leading decision we have on executive privilege. And the court there says it is designed to protect military diplomatic and National Security secrets. And so sort of unusually i guess President Trump might say look at the nixon decision, yes, president nixon exerted executive privilege and lost. But you cant expect to have meetings with attorney heads of state if they believe that the interpreter will have to testify publicly. There has to be some privacy. So it will be an interesting legal and policy back and forth. Because democrats even wanting him to claim executive privilege gives them a talking point as we go this into 2020. It is the legal and the political all mixing together of course. Nice to see you. Thank you. Desperate times for some of the 800,000 federal workers going without paychecks as we now are in day 25 of the partial Government Shutdown. Tampa International Airport teaming up with local charities to set up a food bank for struggling government employees. And a south florida restaurant, chef creole giving free meals. These people are here every day. It is not like they dont want to work. They want to work, but theyre not getting paid. Biggest economy in the world, its government workers are not being paid and are getting free meals at the airport. Unbelievable. Just think about that for a minute.

The National Champion Clemson Tigers had it their way during a visit to the white house. President trump played host to the College Football champs monday and with the shutdown, there was no catering, so he picked up the tab for the food. So i had a choice.

And i said you guys arent into salads. Or do i go out, Lindsey Graham, tim scott, do i send out for about 1,000 hamburgers. Big macs. So we actually did, we have big macs, quarter pounders with cheese, we have everything that i like that you like.

Most observers in the uk believe that she will lose the vote by a historic margin. Lets go live to 10 downing street and hadas gold. At some point does a new brexit referendum become a consideration . Reporter that is one of the possibilities of after what will likely be a defeat for theresa mays plan on how they will exit the European Union tonight. That vote is taking place. Right behind me the cabinet has been meeting for just over an hour and they are likely discussing what will be the next steps. Margin of defeat is sort of what will help determine what the next direction will be, whether theresa may will try to get a few different concessions or whether there will be a completely new plan including possibility either a second referendum or another vote on whether the public agrees with theresa mays deal or no deal at all. But it is not just a political crisis here, not just all of us political nerds who care about this. This is having real world impact on businesses and everyday people because businesses cant plan for ynd marbeyond march wh uk is supposed to exit the European Union. They dont know whether there will be a deal or no deal. Businesses including Grocery Stores have started to stockpile food because they are worried about what the borders could mean and whether food will be held up.
