law that allows the house committee examining the president s returns to see if they are being proper will i audit audited. after that is bogged down in court. new york state passed a law saying that these committees or appropriate federal officials could ask for and get the president s state tax returns in new york. so the president s lawyers went to court and came to a federal judge here and said judge, we want you to block this, we don t think this law is constitutional. the judge in his ruling says this afternoon, no chairman of these congressional committees have yet asked for his taxes. the judge basically says if you got a problem with new york officials, don t come to my court, go up to new york and stew there . he dismissed this part of the case without prejudice. the fight whether the house could get the president s tax
opposition are coming together to try to defeat this mob. now, you passed a law, parliame parliament s passed a law saying that the prime minister must request an extension of time from the european union, but there is new reporting suspecting that boris johnson will not obey that law. is there any way the prime minister can avoid the requirements of that law? it s an extraordinary development that in the birthplace of the rule of law, we have a prime minister say that he will not implement a law that has been passed in this place to mandate it to ask for an extension in an event that he has no deal from the european union. and, frankly, if he disobeys the law, then the metropolitan police will have to enter number 10, put him in handcuffs and arrest him because he must obey the rule of law. so they re trying now to suspend
wrench us out of the european union using xenophobic, sometimes racist rhetoric to deliver that. and to deliver a small, smaller, united kingdom because surely the scots, the welsh, and others will leave the united kingdom and leave us in a small little england. it s deeply depressing. it has to be fought. i m very pleased that the opposition are coming together to try to defeat this mob. now, you passed a law, parliament s passed a law saying that the prime minister must request an extension of time from the european union, but there is new reporting suspecting that boris johnson will not obey that law. is there any way the prime minister can avoid the requirements of that law? it s an extraordinary development that in the birthplace of the rule of law,

well-known one, racial discrimination, as well. those are requirements you get federal funding, but actually following the first amendment is not one of the requirements. we don t make that requirement of colleges to take federal funds. you are right, it is virtually all of them. tucker: why wouldn t it be simple for congress to pass a law saying if you are taking tax dollars, have to follow the bill of rights? that doesn t seem like a tough ask. that is something congress could do, and it wasn t on back in the civil rights era. now you would see a lot of resistance on political basis, because there is a lot of support out there, particularly among college administrators and folks working at colleges for these kind of restrictions. i think you see a lot of opposition to that. i don t think you see a lot among average americans. tucker: if we ever get a republican congress, maybe they will do it, build a wall, stuff like that. here s hoping. robert, thank you very much.
