That grew up here and americans we should welcome that if we start broadening that which is exactly what he did in his 2014 executive order that essentially i would be ignoring the law in a way that i think would be very difficult to defend legally, so thats not an option. And that is why the courts struck down or stayed implementation of the 2014 executive order. Thank you mr. President. I yield the floor.

Islamic state of iraq in the levant, and on page 15 it says we reject the lie that america and its allies are at war with islam. I would disagree with the first statement, i dont think were leading, but i would agree with the second statement, that we are not at war with all of islam. We are at war with radical islam and islamic extremism. Yet nowhere in the strategy does that term appear. In fact, the only two times the word islam appears are in the two instances i just mentioned. Yet Climate Change appears 19 times. I would ask do you think the National Security strategy has enough specificity to adequately inform the documents of the National Defense strategy and the National Military strategy to actually have a positive impact on executing a strategy for degrading and ultimately defeating isil . And secondly dr. Lynch, i would ask in your statement about the momentum of isil being halted. Just within the last 24 hours, theyre knocking on the door of the al Assad Air Base where we h

The homeland funding bill. I do not think the democrats did that. The republicans put that in there in order to have a fight with obama about his executive order. I feel that they are so well because the homeland funding bill should be separate from anything else. Anything else. They should not have attached that bill. I would just like you to clear it up for people, and me, to let the people know who attached that immigration bill to that homeland funding bill. Host certainly a topic that you have been writing about recently. Guest republicans did add the rider to limit any funds to be used on immigration. That has been job by some republicans. Some have said, lets do what is called a clean bill for an entire budget bill and that we will separately work on the immigration bill. Again, there are pending lawsuits. Everything is on hold anyway. But, they did attach the rider and that was the big hangup. It continues to be a hangup, even within the republican party. Then, of course, democ
Trumps pursuit of reelection may have played with the virus. Conspiracy theorist running for congress in georgia and how her racist videos may not keep her from winning. All in starts right now. Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes. There is actually good news for the country today and more bad, bad news for donald trump, the impeached president of the united states. Its been an unexpected theme this week that we saw play out again today when the Supreme Court, the roberts court, ruled against the Trump Administration in an amazing 54 decision. The Supreme Court prevented the Trump Administration from taking away the protected status of socalled dreamers. They are americans who are brought to this country as children without authorization. Trump tried to take their protections away, which would pave the way to them being deported. Today the court said, no, cant do it. This time around chief Justice John Roberts joined the more liberal justices offering the opinion. As he did in t
