years in the state department, case, the prosecutors were served as a u.s. ambassador to relying on cohen s testimony on several companies. conversations he had privately she s now back, was recalled to with the president. with respect to rudy giuliani, washington. are there concerns she could be there is a transcript of a fired, lose her pension, stuff summary of a call in which the like that? they ve already done quite a president is invoking rudy bit to her. i think she s a tough person. giuliani himself and offering his assistance in his capacity as the president s personal they ve already taken their best swing at her. attorney if they open up an she remains an employee of the investigation into joe biden and state department, we should make his son. so it s difficult for the president to pretend he acting sure she doesn t suffer any more retribution. they should leave her alone. volition. she is trying to do her job as how much trouble potentially is rudy giuliani in right no
which means every republican on the senate is on the hook for that vote. then the president changes his mind. and they do not want to be in a position where they vote on something and then the president changes his mind. this is not the way you president. this is not the way you legislate and actually cut deals. and so, ultimately, the president is hurting his own cause with his own priorities because this may have worked for him in the previous job he held, but it s just not the way you get things done in washington. and so, if he wants a wall and he wants to overhaul immigration policy and whatever else he wants to do, he s not going to do it if nobody trusts him. so, among all the lawmakers that you ve been speaking with, of all the frustrations, which has them the most concerned? is it the shutdown and sort of facing constituents when they go home for the holidays now? is it mattis? is it syria? or is it all of it? well, i think you could say having it all come at the same time
could this push democrats to shut down the government over a daca deal if it doesn t happen? well, the ironic thing about this is that the instability of the white house is such that tomorrow we could expect them to go out and say he never said this. so, look, we re looking to say 800,000 d.r.e.a.mers and now he makes these statements. this is not helpful at all. we will stick with that and it s our responsibility to ensure that they stay in our nation and continue to contribute as young people who came at the age of one, two, three years old. and it certainly doesn t help matters and doesn t lead to a consensus. mexico will, he says, end up paying for the border wall.
earlier today when he came in and we heard he apologized for going to the white house before coming to you. this is true. he did apologize, to his credit. i think it was appropriate. historically both the chair and ranking members have worked together in a very in a very positive way and very meaningful way. and in terms of protocol, typically the chairman would notify the ranking member on either side of the aisle, if it were a democratic chair, he would notify the republican ranking. and so i give him credit for acknowledging the error because i think you can t find a finer ranking member than adam schiff. and it was the appropriate thing to do. the unfortunate part of all of this is that in a society where the electorate is already disillusioned, there s so much distrust of the bureaucracy, of elected officials, of administration, this doesn t help matters, especially as we re dealing with unearthing
this issue really doesn t help matters. all right. former governor of great state of maryland, robert ehrlich, thank you for joining us. my pleasure. for a look at headlines, here s heather. good morning. good morning. i want to start with a terrorist in gitmo for killing a u.s. soldier. he is about to walk free in canada. an unbelievable story to bring you right now. omar khadir was an al qaeda member and used to live at an osama bin laden compound in afghanistan. he spent ten years in gitmo after he threw a grenade that killed a u.s. army sergeant christopher spear in afghanistan in 2002. five years ago, he cut a deal to serve the rest of his sentence at a prison in canada. well, he just filed an appeal and a judge may grant him bail next week. the canadian government we re told plans to appeal that judge s decision. that is a story we ll watch carefully for you. this guy thought he can run
