we told you earlier about the battle over president trump's taxes. bernie sanders released his most returns. he will release a decades worth of his returns in the next few days before the annual income tax deadline of april 15th. sanders also reveals he is a millionaire telling new york times, i wrote a best selling book. you write a best selling book, you can be a millionaire too. you get to vote on some of the stories that we cover. you can get all the details to

watch it 6:25 eastern. that's it for us. the news continues. hand it over to chris for cuomo primetime. >> thank you. i am chris cuomo and welcome to primetime. the ag told us the mueller report is coming within a week. so what? the only thing that matters is how much of it is coming out and today we saw that the ag is playing hardball. the democrats are suspicious and they have a plan to get more that is almost certain to get ugly. we'll ask the committee chairwoman that went at it today in their meeting. we also have one of the president's biggest folks, california's governor gavin newsome. he's in central america. >> great debate. my friends, let's get after it.

>> so our attorney general bill barr made it clear today that he ain't giving what the democrats want in terms of disclosure of the mueller report and they made it clear they don't trust him and they won't accept anything less than all. so what are the democrats really bothered by? especially the chair of the appropriations committee. a long time vet in congress. she made it clear she was not buying what the ag was selling on a number of topics. here's what the congresswoman has to say about it. >> it is very good to have you. thank you for being on primetime. >> always a pressure for me to have a conversation with you any time. >> so even though i have an inside track because i have known you a long time, you don't have to know you to know that the congresswoman was not happy today during the hearing.

what is your problem with the ag? what is your concern? >> well, the hearing started in a very organized way but as soon as we talked about that four page letter and i asked him whether he discussed it with the white house, at that point, he just shutdown. so it was clear to me that the white house had some input in the letter and we intend to pursue our questions so we get to the truth. what did you know? when did you know it? we need the facts and frankly i look forward to reading not just the four page letter which we all have seen, but i look forward to seeing the whole report and i'm very pleased that another new yorker, jerry nadler will subpoena the whole report so we can review it. look, that's my responsibility

as a member of congress. >> well, let's look at it from the side. going the subpoena route saying you think the white house had input. the ag told you he digit think the white house had input. he thinks a member of his staff may have read it to him when they were releasing it. they digit have a chance to control the content. when you subpoena him, you're making this a fight. why not just wait and see what he releases? >> well, chris, i never like to disagree with you but i don't think he was quite as cordial and open in his role with dealing with the white house. who did he speak to? who reviewed it? we have to get the whole report. four pages since the beginning. we need to get whether it's 300 or 400, we need to get the whole

report. i have a responsibility to my constituents, jerry nadler does as chair of the committee and we need to get to the bottom of it. it's essential to democracy. >> what about the idea that reports are redacted all the time? why is this so different? >> good. we'll see the report. we know that mr. mueller spent a long time on this report. i want to know what has been redacted and who encouraged the redaction of the report. it's essential that we have the facts. i want to read the whole report. >> so no redactions for you. what do you think is in there that they're going to hide? what is fuelling your suspicion? >> frankly i am not giving any possible question in advance. i want to see the whole report. i know what has to happen and we need the whole report. >> there's a theory that one way that you can guarantee that you get the whole report, maybe more than a subpoena battle because you'd have a legal fight on your

hand is if imspeechment hearings were started. are the democrats even thinking about going that far just to get the unredacted report? >> oh, chris, i never want to get to that point in order to get a report. we should get that report and i'm not even talking about impeachment. in fact, the attorney general said that he wasn't even reviewing anything with the president. so i want to get that report. i'm not talking about impeachment and, in fact, speaker pelosi, my friend, a great leader, made it clear she's not going to focus on impeachment. we want to know what happened. who is involved? what did the president see? who did he talk to? let's get the whole report and every one of us has a responsibility to read it. >> as soon as that report is released by mueller and it's redacted the subpoenas go out. are you okay with that? >> i think that my friend, the chair, jerry nadler knows

exactly what he is doing and will follow the appropriate process i support him and i support the work of the committee. i'll do my job on appropriations and i was glad that the attorney general came before us but you notice as soon as we talked even a little bit about the white house and what he showed them and what he didn't show them, he shutdown. we never heard another thing. >> what about his argument that i thought this was an appropriations hearing? you're coming at me guns blazing like this was an extension of the mueller probe. i thought we were here to talk about the budge. >> we certainly did talk about the budget but he's the attorney general of the united states of america and if he was involved

in any actions that are going to be reported in the mueller report, we have a responsibility to get all of that information. >> indulge me for a second. you don't trust something about the attorney general. i saw it in your demeanor. i saw it in your questions. what was it that was said or wasn't said that made you think not on my watch? >> look, chris, i ask a question, if someone has nothing to hide they respond to the question. i don't know but i think we have a responsibility to find out. >> do you think this attorney general is a fair broker? do you think he's just going by the book? >> look, i could talk about the letter he wrote to the president in 2018 when he was interviewing for this job.

i don't know him well. i don't know him at all. all i know is i need all of the information that i need his involvement. i need to know what he said to those people at the white house before he released the four pages and then we need to know what is the involvement of the white house. i don't know if it's the president or mulvaney or someone else. we need to know the facts. >> always a pleasure. thank you for letting us know where your head is on these important issues. >> take care, bye. >> this is going to get ugly. everybody is talking about when the report comes out. that is just going to be the beginning of the process. remember that. the president pushing back today on the news that he may separate families again. but did he tell you the truth? time to bring in the fact checker of all fact checkers, daniel dale. later, california's governor is in central america. he says he has a message from there that you're not hearing from this potus. what is it?

won't. >> what's the truth? >> this is a brazen attempt to rewrite history. there were some occasional family separations in exceptional circumstances like when parents were thought to be a threat to the child the parent was apprehended carrying drugs and so on but it was only under trump that family separation became a routine systematic policy. and it was a discretionary policy decision to routinely criminally prosecute anyone apprehended crossing the border and that's what resulted in the separation of children from parents. so trump takes a little grain of truth here. yes, it sometimes happened under obama and yes it eventually

stopped under trump and twisted into something that's not factual in the slightest. >> it stopped because a judge made it stop. there's an injunction against it right now. you know what he's doing, he's mixing up unaccompanied minors that came here in 2014 and caused all of that drama on the border and that were treated so poorly by the obama administration as separating kids. i bet you anything he's confusing the two. next one, okay. this is about, again, another straight attack on hey, it's not me, it's got to be somebody else. okay. it's obama. okay, it's the democrats. you don't like my way, you know what they want? open boarders. take a listen. >> with the democrats in

congress not willing to act they want to have open borders which means they want to have crime and drugs pouring into our country. >> now, daniel before you grade this one, on this show i say all the time i do not get the democrats refusing to own this opportunity here. there's opportunity to help the cbp. give them what they need on the border. expose how the fence was a farce as a complete fix. they have been very quite although the california governor is in el salvador with a message from there. how do you judge this? >> the phrase open boards is an effective piece of political framing. democrats support a less restrictive agency than trump. over the last ten years they offered billions of dollars and voted for billions of dollars in various kinds of security to the border patrol for sensors and high-tech imaging systems so it's simply not true to say that democrats want open boarders when they support restrictions. >> a lot of it is money appropriated by congress including democrats for more fencing. never heard a single one say they are for open borders. next one, the president is saying not only am i promising

the wall, not only is it going to happen, it is happening right now. listen. >> we are building a lot of wall. it's getting built. some of you saw that last week when we went, we had a great presentation of a new stretch. >> zero new miles of wall has been built. trump has said 100 times, literally 100 times that the wall is under construction. what he visited with a two-mile stretch of replacement fencing that last year before trump started claiming that it was new wall, the border patrol went out of its way to tell the media was not part of trump's wall. they said this was a long planned replacement project initially in 2009. trump having not built any new wall is trying to claim the fence is the new wall. >> you know what he's doing? he keeps saying it because, you know what, it works. i do a radio show every day 12:00 to 2:00 eastern, i'm

telling you a lot of people that support the president or just support border security which is a pretty easy sell. you have over half the country that wants to be safer and physical barrier is apart of that, great. they think it's being built into because they heard him say it. that's why he repeats because it's effective and that's why we need you to counter it. thank you very much. >> thank you as always. >> muslim congresswoman under fire again from the right again for yet another tweet. this time, what did she say? she went after the man on your screen. the president's aid stephen miller, jewish. she is now accused of anti-semitism again for going after him. fair criticism. great debate. and a big 2020 event is just minutes away. kirsten gillibrand about to take center stage at a cnn town hall. how is she doing in terms of her positioning in the party? too far left. does she need a moment? will she get it? 10:00 eastern. right back with primetime. ♪ hoo!

she tweeted this, stephen miller is a white nationalist. the fact that he still has influence on policy and political appointments is an outrage. miller is jewish. now omar's remarks could have been spurred by reports of mueller's connections to groups or certain relationships he has. but republicans are now attacking her. you can't call someone jewish or white nationalists, that makes you an anti-semite. that's their argument and the start of tonight's great debate. thank you both. angela rye, you can't call a jewish guy a white nationalist. white nationalists hate jews and if you do it, you're being anti-semitic, do you accept that criticism? >> i don't. >> why? >> stephen miller has been a white nationalist and he's been one since before high school

when he told a childhood friend that they could no longer be friends because of his latino heritage. he has certainly trafficked in white nationalism since high school. he went on to duke doing the same thing. he is a provocateur. he is behind many of the president's most hateful policies. he has undermined the department of homeland security by sending some of the things she is working on to outlets and there are people all over los angeles where i'm sitting right now who can demonstrate support for them from exhibit a to z and that does not make her antisemitic. i makes donald trump a troll because he knows what the people have been saying about her as of late and he continues to divide instead of trying to understand why people may see this senior adviser of his as a white nationalist. >> why does miller being jewish end the conversation for you? >> i have to say i find it almost laughable that you're going to tell us that we should

believe that he's a racist because somebody claims they heard it on the playground in los angeles 20 years ago. >> is that what i said? >> that's exactly what you said. >> there was no mention of a playground and that was one example citing that it's not new to him. >> here's what is important. he is a nationalist. he's an american nationalist. so am i by the way. whiteness has nothing to do with it. america is not a race. and i would also point out that tolerating largely open border which is is the situation we have in this country is most problematic, is most dangerous for hispanic americans. so my community, brown people in this country, are the ones that suffer the most from our permissive border policies. we have to deal with ms-13. the victims almost always have hispanic sir names. we have to compete against illegal immigrant labor in a totally unfair system.

so defending america and defending our border, not only defends all americans but it particularly protects minority americans who suffer the most. >> can i just for a moment -- i think it's really important when we have conversations like this to ground them in fact. so i'd love to understand what steve's definition of nationalism is to him. perhaps that may be the root of our problem. we don't understand it the same way. >> what is your definition? >> american nationalism specifically is pride in this country and shared values. shared values in our constitution, things like tolerance, free enterprise. >> how is that different than patriotism? >> the rule of law? >> this is national -- every country, to me they're synonymous -- >> why use a loaded term. >> it's not a loaded term. >> very loaded. >> it's only loaded when you attach white to it.

>> when has it been used as a major political movement that it didn't have white attached to it? >> nationalism is also -- one reason nationalism is a correct term today instead of just patriotism is it's the antithesis of globalism. it says we subscribe to multilateral in the world. >> that's the opposite of globalism. >> no. >> isolationism is the opposite of globalism. >> you can disagree, you're wrong. >> no, i'm not wrong. >> you are wrong. >> it's not america alone. >> i'm not wrong, chris. it's not america alone but it is america first and that's the definition of nationalism. we will not let the united nations run america just like people in france will say we will not let brussels -- >> i like that angela wanted us to get on the same page in terms of what we're thinking and why -- >> which we can't. >> i dig it. it's important to hear. what miller has done, his

heritage and religion and blood aside, what he has done gives him reasons for criticism and an apparent affinity for people that are part of ugly moves that say the same thing. that was miller. what he said about the new poem being added later. suspiciously similar to what you hear from a spencer, from what you hear from a duke. why does he use language like that? why does he espouse principles found in the mouths of people that believe ugly things about diversity. >> chris, it's very important to define here that defending america's borders is never about race. america is not a white country.

we're an incredibly diverse country and country that loves immigrants. >> but he painted muslims as offensive. >> no, he did not -- now -- no. >> he literally -- i mean, even when you get past stephen miller, how did donald trump announce his campaign? saying that mexicans were drug dealers and rapists. >> he did not say that. >> yes he did. >> he said among them. >> he said they're sending us rapists and killers and some i assume are nice people. >> i will be the first to say as i have said many times i didn't like his word choice. >> then don't defend it. >> i know. >> but no, but chris, attack him for what he actually said. >> i know what he actually said because i was stunned. >> let me tell you something. >> you may not know it but you should know it. go ahead. >> among your definition today, the first part of which i can

completely align with but not under nationalism, perhaps under patriotism but also in your definition, among the many that you offered was an idea of superiority and i think that's exactly the problem. that's exactly why donald trump is compared to hitler. it's exactly why stephen miller has been called a white nationalist. a white supremacist. a racist. someone that is xenophobic. someone that's hateful about muslims. someone that is a very hateful individual that rooted his policy positions and debate in hate and fear mongering because people are worried about losing their what? first position in the world. that is why make america great again is so frustrating to so many of us. that's why white nationalism and white supremacy were problematic when donald trump said there

were good people on both sides. >> he didn't say that. >> okay. >> that's a hoax. he did not say that. i just wrote an entire article about this. look at the full text and full video. he did not say there were fine people on both sides. he was talking about the monument debate. he was not talking about neo-nazis. >> let's talk about the monument. do you want to tell me there were confederates that were good people when they were slave owners and fighting -- >> he didn't say confederates -- he said there were good people on both sides of the monument debate and there are good people on both sides of the monument debate. i prefer those monuments not stand myself but i will certainly not say that everyone that wants to preserve historical markers, even those that represent people that made a lot of mistakes, there are fine people on both sides of the monument debate. that's just clearly true. >> well they have bad points. fine people with bad ideas. >> i agree. >> because they're racist.

their racist ideology. >> for you to make the jump that they're racist. >> it's racist ideology. >> when they brought candice owen there is today when she was at the hearing that was in my humble estimation, she was there to blow up that hearing and to expose it for what she believes it is. that dove tails with the stephen miller thing in terms of this. forget about white nationalism. i'm talking about extremism of thought. you invite candice owen there because you want to blow it up. you want to blow up what's going on talking about issues that the right doesn't like to deal with and doesn't like getting used against them and i think you have to ask yourself is that a good strategy if your goal is to build from your base? how it would help control your base and there's always that nice part of her being african american and making arguments

that you don't usually hear from african americans, but if the goal is to expand your base, why have dynamite like that. >> don't blame it on miller. that was the house republicans. >> right. i want to persuade people that the america first strategies are working for them. we are persuading people. hispanic support for this president is surging. largely because the economic opportunity is accelerating. so that's working. let's continue by pointing out the positives. let's persuade and talk about why we defend or border just as we defend our home and lock our doors at night. to me that's the way rather than throwing bombs so i didn't like that strategy for the house committee today. >> let's leave it there? do you know why? that's agreement. you have to take agreement when you find it every once in awhile. well argued and appreciated. steve cortes as always, thank you for being on the show. >> all right. so this man calls the president's rhetoric about migrants toxic. california's governor is trying to do something more.

he's doing something a lot of democrats won't do. he's diving into the border issue. his first international trip since taking office. you know what kind of questions that raises. gavin newsom is in el salvador and has a message for you he says you're not getting, next. thank you. how many kids? my two. his three. along with two dogs and jake, our new parrot. that is quite the family. quite a lot of colleges to pay for though. a lot of colleges. you get any financial advice? yeah, but i'm pretty sure it's the same plan they sold me before. well your situation's totally changed now. right, right. how 'bout a plan that works for 5 kids, 2 dogs and jake over here? that would be great. that would be great. that okay with you, jake? get a portfolio that works for you now and as your needs change from td ameritrade investment management. ♪now i'm gonna tell my momma ♪that i'm a traveller ♪i'm gonna follow the sun♪ ♪now i'm gonna tell my momma ♪that i'm a traveller transitions™ light under control™

he says the president is playing it all wrong and what he is going to do is going to come back to haunt us. we just talked to him amidst his travels. here he is. thank you for joining primetime. >> great to be here chris. >> i know that it's enough to make people understand what you learned. thank you for taking the opportunity. what did you learn? what are you learning about why we're seeing what we're seeing down in el salvador? >> it's simple. a lack of opportunity.

economic insecurity. the disorder that manifests in lack of hope. the fact is the northern triangles are unstable because of lack of investment and that's what leads to migration. and for us to have a debate about immigration policy in the united states framed around a border and a wall is to lose sight of a bigger picture, what lies underneath. the story starts here, particularly in el salvador and it starts with a frame of understanding and history. history not just of el salvador but the united states and other northern triangle countries. >> what would you direct people to? what do they need to know? >> that there's a lot of opportunity here. there's a lot of extraordinary things happening down here. there's a sense that you can't walk the streets. there's violence. no tourism.

no economic opportunity or growth. quite the contrary. we have been to all parts of this country and seen people doing extraordinary things. including today. many young people that come from some of the most violent parts of this country doing computing coding with the aid of the united states of america. that's the aid of the president of the united states now has cutoff. programming that are working and manifested in a 53% reduction in homicides in the last three years. it's a pathway but the president is promoting a pathway to more migration, more strife on the american border. so folks need to turn their attention to how to solve problems by beginning to build a wall here and investing in building a wall that would create the conditions where we don't have the tit for tat and zig to zag and tweet to tweet

policy we have today. >> what does he make of our president saying i'm going to cut off your money unless you start keeping your people away from our border? is that going to get better action in terms of helping our border situation? >> people, their jaws dropped down here. regardless of party. there's a lot of republican appointees. people are cautious. they want to keep their jobs. but there's not an individual i met that is not just shocked. two days prior, members of the president's administration, members of our foreign staff here from the state department, usa folks were just signing memorandums of understanding to regionalize and commit to our economic development strategies in this part of the world. two days later we get a tweet saying all of those programs

need to stop. in essence we're saying this is a failed state. we're giving up. at a time when people feel like we're finally making some progress, it's just remarkable how demoralizing that tweet was and how hopeful people are that the president may come to his senses and may realize the error of his ways and the american people understand that what he is doing will make things much worse and ultimately only he can come to that conclusion and get us back on track. >> anybody that does a little bit of googling is going to understand why he's down there in need and practicality. it is a country in and of itself. and yet members of your party are treating this issue like it's the plague. only a hand full of them have

even gone down to the border. they don't want to talk about it. you're down there taking a leadership position. it must project gavin newsom as governor on to the national stage. is that part of your consideration in doing this? >> no, i represent the world's most diverse state in the world's most diverse democracy. 27% of us are foreign born. where half the el salvadoran population resides. close to 40% of our state is hispanic. by the way, that's the future of america and in many ways california has gone through the xenophobia and nativism in our past. quite literally 2019 in america is a lot like the 1990s in california. we went through the same process of reconciling this diversity

and realizing it's a strength and recognizing the border not as an impenetrable wall but as a way to manage cross border collaboration and economic development. so we have an obligation to play on our own playing field. california understands how to manage a border. we have the largest border crossing in the western hemisphere. the most diverse population. and those relationships are foundational. and governors need to take the time to understand and these conditions. >> totally get it. you have good cover on taking this trip because of the state you're the governor of and challenges it has but it makes me wonder whether or not the virus you're battling right now might be the presidential flu. is that any chance that's what you caught down there in el salvador.

>> no, quite the contrary and i know this extends a narrative and gets us off a talking point but i think this also was remarkable and it's important that i communicate, a knowledge that i did not even imagine to have some 60 hours after visiting here. china was celebrating, popping champagne corks when the president of the united states sent out that tweet saying we were going to give up foreign aid. >> more opportunity for them. >> it's a huge opportunity. we're walking away. china is trying to build ports and take over a coastline for economic opportunity and economic zone. watch this space. it's profoundly important and if for no other reason the president should reconsider this investment in foreign aid into it is to consider the relationship. >> sorry you're sick but thank you for helping our audience understand the complexity of this issue. feel better.

>> thanks. thanks for having me. >> governor, thank you. very interesting how different the take is he had talking to people down there. they're talking about opportunity and not just sending you their worse. very interesting. the legal troubles for a hollywood star caught up in the college admission scandal just got worse. a lot worse. actress lori laughlin. if the prosecutors get what they want she's going to do time in prison and more time than you might expect. they have the charges and the implications with d. lemon, next. if your moderate to severe ulcerative colitis

>> prosecutors added new money laundering charges to the college admission scandal. lori laughlin and her husband were among 16 parents hit with new charges. prosecutors will be asking for jail time for all defendants. let's bring in d. lemon. here's what is interesting to i'm struggling with this story a little bit. i see it on two different levels. i see it on one of just privilege and money and dual systems. but then i see it on this other level of just how brazen this was. they didn't get busted for paying their way into college. they got busted for trying to get a tax write off and forwarding this charity on top of it. had they not done that, had they not paid funny money with this charity in order to pay this guy off, they wouldn't be getting prescuted right now. so i see it as problematic on two levels.

>> well, i mean they could very well go to prison for months if not years. i understand lori loughlin is in for probably more than felicity huffman. i read felicity huffman's apology, she's taken full responsibility for it at least in her response. listen, i don't know what she's going through so i'm not going to judge that, but it's certainly not good optics for this. but you're right, it is brazen. and these are very serious crimes. >> it was bad. and it was so piggish. it was so piggish. there are ways to do pay offs like this so you don't expose yourself. the access is always worth more than the actual fees, right?

>> hey, listen you had a cameo in your tease with anderson. not to be outdone i have a great journalist here. can you please come in, sir? look at that. you see who that is? >> is that sanjay gupta? >> he can't hear you, but he's going to be on the show tonight. he's going to tell us how to live forever. >> how to keep you guys healthy. >> we're going to tape it in a little bit, but he's going to tell us how to live a better life. >> look how small he looks. >> that's because i have my chair jacked up. >> is chris making fun of my -- you know what? did you ever see the video of sanjay carrying me on his back? just ask him. >> is there a video of you carrying chris on your back? >> yeah. do we have that? >> we don't have that. i was at dinner with some folks earlier in the year and they

were talking about maybe there's pills or medications that can make you live forever, like these eternity pills they're testing now? that's crazy. >> you don't want to do that, do you? >> i would not want to live forever, not with these creaky bones. i've got more than that guy, but -- >> sure you do. say hello to sanjay. it's a big week. we have a series of cnn 2020 presidential town halls kicking off in minutes with senator kirsten gillibrand in new york. but first, it's about a man just playing by the rules. these are tough times and weighty matters. what do we know about the ag today? we all know something for sure, and i'll argue it, next. but i'm more than a number. when i'm not sharing ideas with my colleagues i'm defending my kingdom. my essilor lenses offer more than vision correction with three innovative technologies for my ultimate in vision clarity

did you know comcast business goes beyond fast with a gig-speed network. complete internet reliability. advanced voice solutions. wifi to keep everyone connected. video monitoring. that's huge. did you guys know we did all this stuff?

no. i'm not even done yet. wow. business tv. cloud apps and support. comcast business goes beyond at&t. start with internet and voice for just $59.90 a month. it's everything a small business owner needs. comcast business. beyond fast. all right, here's the argument. the ag is not neutral on the mueller report or any matter involving this president. i am not accusing the ag of doing anything illegal. i am not making an attack. this is an unprecedented time when the same old won't cut it. so let's just look at the facts. this man came out of political retirement. why? a memo dated 8 june, 2018, in which he questioned the need for mueller probe, took a position

favorable to the president on obstruction. he then got the job and he refused to recuse himself from overseeing the same probe he trashed. i argue he would have never gotten the job if he had not taken the two prior steps. then as a.g. overseeing the mueller probe that ends soon after he takes his position, he does three things that fuel this argument. one, he keeps to a strict reading that has nat guidelines a report only directly to a. g. janet reno, a.g. and dreked the office of the special counsel to release directly to the public. barr could have but did not. then he summarizes mueller's nearly 400-page offering in a weekend. four-page letter. however, bad fact for my argument. he takes the step of quoting mueller's unusual and unusually damning language that potus was not exonerated on the issue of obstruction. ee didn't need to do that. but he put it out there and it

was bad for potus. but then he gave potus a gift that is nowhere in the special counsel regulations. when mueller came to him and deputy a.g. rosenstein weeks earlier and said there was basically equal evidence on the side of making a case or not making a case on obstruction, barr decided to make the decision for him. you could argue mueller did what he did with his unusual language because he was signaling congress not barr. then we have the issue of disclosure, we have the precedent. barr instead created four categories of potential exclusion including one that would redact info of any one indicted third party. otherwise this line may even clear potus of any exposure in the report. but in a matter like what mueller was looking at, serbly telling less than the full story is going to be less than

satisfying. the a.g. knows this and knows he could do otherwise, and it is hard to look at the decision as not favoring the cause of potus. it is not just by the book. then we have today where the a.g. seemed more like a white house counselor than your top law enforcement official. talk about what the white house knew about his letter. no thanks. talk about separating families. avoid the law and talk about the president not wanting to separate families. why is he fighting in court to abolish the affordable care act? skirt the question. and hey, the president has a plan to replace it which he must know is just spin. there's no plan until after the elections. why offer that as a a.g.? none of today was a good look. all of it makes my case if the a.g. is playing by the book it is a political play book, and the fact that doing so does not make him unique, does not make his actions unproblematic. this is not any other
