House minority nancy pelosi, meanwhile, demanding that Speaker Paul Ryan actual lawmakers back from whats currently a break to debate some kind of war authorization. I am joined by david corn. Karen tumulty and jens david olen. Professor, how legal is this operation at this point, and what might be required if it continues . I mean, i think its legal under u. S. Law because the president didnt need congressional authorization for such a limited strike. Normally the war powers resolution would apply, but in this case this was such a discrete military strike. And there were exigent circumstances. He was interested in going after a particular air base that was responsible for the chemical weapons attack and he wanted to strike the aircraft that were involved.

Martha this high intensity does not mark this pharmacye talking about, today, 1 of 3 americans who was imprisoned in north koreas parents spoke out for the first time. Nothing he may or may not have done in north korea rises to this level of punishment. Is cindy and i have made the decision that this is less about otto now than it is about the bigger picture, the tensions between north korea and the United States. Martha right he is. These three individuals are being held, no doubt their fate is on the president s mind as he weighs all of this. The world watches for the next move.

If, in fact, the National Security Council Staff that discovered these materials reportedly in the ordinary course of business are the same National Security staff that provided them to the chairman to be provided to the president , it raises a profound question of why they were not directly provided to the white house by the National Security staff and instead were provided through a circuitous route involving the chairman. If that was designed to hide the origin of the materials, that raises profound questions about just what the white house is doing. Eric there are three investigations going on over two separate topics. First topic, whether or not there was any collusion with the russian spy team trump during the election, and the second thing was their surveillance of team trump by the intel department, and if so, who unmasked the names of those being surveilled.

Not all of those people were neonazis, believe me. Not all of those people were White Supremacists. They tried to kill my child to shut her up. Well, guess what . You just magnified her.

Do you feel that under the trump administration, more and more people are joining your movement . No doubt. Our movement is winning. Our movement is growing. They think that they have some sort of a victory. We believed that the symbolism of being associated with that spirited defense of racism and bigotry was just unacceptable.

Also im sick of people complaining that local government cant get stuff done. I was like you want to see action . Watch that coordinated thing. They moved fast and got it done. The mayor is going to tell us how she did it and how she made the decision, how quickly she moved. Thanks, rachel. Thanks. Well, donald trump has become the divider in chief. He has divided this country. He has divided his party. He has divided the white house itself. So it was no surprise today when he did not do what his predecessor would have done. He did not attend Heather Heyers Memorial Service in charlottesville, but heathers parents delivered more eloquence and wisdom in their remarks than this president of the United States ever could. If youre not outraged, youre not paying attention. Not all of those people were neonazis, believe me. Not all of those people were White Supremacis
