A. M. Joy will be back tomorrow at 10 00 a. M. Up next, alex witt with the latest. Have a lovely afternoon. Well see you tomorrow morning. Thank you so much. A today day to all of you. Its high noon in the east. 8 00 a. M. In the west. Looming Court Battles and political unrest. The fallout from the president s National Emergency. The master dealmaker left to spin the outcome, and democrats with a new direct warning today. In the hot seat, syrah sanders grilled by the special counsel. The one question she might have been forced to answer. Plus the Deputy Attorney general was definitely very concerned about the e at that point in time. And thats not all. What else, the former acting fbi director is saying about this bombshell 25th amendment conversation. Alexandria ocasio cortez. Some democrats colleagues have a very different take. Developing this hour, a legal and constitutional battle brewing after the president declared a National Emergency to build a border wall without congression
The border wall, the constitution and the path ahead to 2020. Plus, fired fbi acting director Andrew Mccabe speaks out on why he opened an investigation into President Trumps ties to russia. I was very concerned that i was able to put the russia case on absolutely solid ground that the case could not be closed or vanish in the night without a trace. Chris well ask our sunday panel a what this means for the Mueller Investigation. All right now on fox news sunday. And hello again from fox news in washington. Congress used the power of the purse to deny President Trump all the money he wants to build a wall on the southern border. So the president invoked executive powers to free up billions of dollars to do it anyway. The president says theres a crisis at the border, but critics including some republicans say the president s move has created a crisis of its own. In a moment well speak with white house Senior Policy Adviser Stephen Miller. But first, lets get the latest from kevin corke a
And i can just plead insanity and my personal hell of playing president will finally be over. Bless you. So the first one was the president. Yes. And the second one was saturday night live poking fun at the president and his whole sing song moment in fridays rose garden event. Saturday night may have been the best one, it may have been alec baldwin at his best. The reason why is because you actually saw a friend told me it reminded him of when tina fey was at her best at sarah palin, when it got to the point where you really didnt know where tina fey stopped and sarah palin began. And thats actually whats happening now. That sing song cadence, which a lot of people that follow donald trump and report on donald trump, that sing song cadence was very disturbing for a lot of people, but thats something that alec baldwin may have done three or four or five months ago as an exaggerated sort of trump tick. Its now in his actual repertoire. You can go back and say, wait a second, did he said
Lied about contacts with kilminik. And saying quote this is a problematic attempt to shield his russian conspirator from liability and gives rise to legitimate questions about where his loyalties lie, specifically manafort lied about sharing internal Campaign Polling data and discussing a socalled peace plan that would benefit russia. As muellers prosecutor told mueller quote this goes to the heart of what the special counsels office is investigating. All of this begs the question why would manafort risk spending the rest of his life in jail to keep those discussions secret . Theyve floated the theory that manafort might hope to be pardoned by the president. A pardon has been considered since 2017. But trump was most late last year. Saying quote i wouldnt take it off the table. Why would i take it off the table . And yet he can only pardon federal crimes and not state offenses. Quote new york state prosecutors have put together a criminal case against Paul Manafort that they could file
Emergency as weevil. Well. The precedent the president is setting here should be met with unease and dismay by the republicans. Paul lets bring in Editorial Board member kim straw straws m. You made Campaign Promises about building a wallnd dont wt have much to show for it right now. Just using the own administrations data, illegal crossings are at the lowest level in decades, sinc since the 1970s. Yes, there are problems on the border. We need a better asylum policy, we need no more judges adjudicag claims and so forth. There are places where a wall could be an effective deterrent on the border. Whether this rises to the level of a National Emergency, i dont see the argument there. Paul do you think hell be sued . He will definitely be sued. That was promised before the words left his mouth. Paul so kyle, but the president says look, other president s have declared National Emergencies for even lesser urgent matters. Is that going to matter as this proceeds in the courts . I dont thin
