one of the strongest, most powerful storms on record in the atlantic in terms of winter storm systems. 36 hours, it started across the southeast in north florida and now moving out of new england, one for the record books. look at wind gusts, very strong winds, counterclockwise went offshore, 28, 35 in new york and with the wind it feels colder than it is. wind chill advisory, windchill warning stretches all the way to florida, look at the forecast, bone chilling dangerous temperatures, my concern is folks without power have to find an area to keep warm. morning lows, negative 6, negative 2, it will be very cold, this could be very

longer turn a blind eye to states to legalize marijuana leaving now emerging industry in limbo. joining me is legal affairs reporter, thank you for joining us, appreciate it. what does this mean in terms of federal law versus state law. >> we will wait and see for the next few months, prosecutions related to marijuana, those that have sales and recreational use of marijuana. a little too early, the 2013 obama doj memo did detail eight instances where federal prosecutors could get involved in marijuana crimes. it involves sale to underage individuals, also dealt with

combating gang members and ties to drugs, there are areas where federal prosecutors have been able to prosecute crimes, knowing jeff sessions -- heather: as we continue to talk eight states that legalize recreational marijuana, california was the latest we talked about and this is what cory gardner has to say, that is where it is legal, i am prepared to take all steps necessary including holding doj nominees until the attorney general lives up to the commitment prior to his confirmation and the next one, given the department's general principles, nationwide guidance and enforcement is

unnecessary. what do you think of this comment? >> the controls are passed in 1970, it is old so lawmakers like cory gardner could propose legislation to address these concerns. i reached out to his office to ask if it was something he was thinking about doing, the proposed that idea, that might be something we see in coming weeks depending how this plays out. you're seeing a split between republican politicians and lawmakers that this should be a states rights issue but on the other hand there are those that say this is a national public health issue in terms of combating drugs, marijuana to the opioid epidemic. not only a legal issue but political as well.

heather: other state expected to pass marijuana laws coming up in 2018. could this make rethink that? >> we will see what happens if there is an increase in marijuana convictions, how this plays out, in what directions us federal prosecutors in those states, we have to win in colorado, not going to do any changes, that is the direction of jeff sessions, the focus should be on safety and in 2013, it does dictate where marijuana use could go to other kinds, firearms and drugs. heather: thank you so much, have a great weekend, appreciate it. pumping gas could soon be a of the past, a democratic lawmaker in california wants to ban all

not doing enough to fight online abuse and blamed for spreading fake news aimed at affecting the 2016 presidential election. some people are skeptical. this person says mark zuckerberg pledges to do the job he already has. another twitter user points out facebook is still a thing? what is this? 2011? julie on twitter says he would have to delete the whole thing to fix it. next year's new year's resolution, talk to people from all 50 states, this year, focusing on his day job. heather: did he keep his resolution last your? >> yes he did. heather: interesting to see what happens. howard dean says joe biden is too old. heather: telling older members of parties to get out of the way to make room for fresh blood. joe biden is fighting back

to read but it went on sale at midnight, the president's lawyers trying to stop it with a cease and desist letter sent to the publisher but don't expect anyone at the white house to buy it, sarah huckabee sanders blasting the book as nothing more than fantasy. >> there are numerous mistakes but i won't waste my time for the country's time going page by page talking about a book that is complete fantasy and full of tabloid gossip. it is sad, pathetic. >> reporter: fallout for the president's chief strategist as donald trump responded to bannon after numerous disparaging remarks against him and his family, calling ivanka dumb as a brick or legend on junior was treasonous and unpatriotic. >> he called me a great man last night. he obviously changed his tune pretty quick. thank you very much. i don't talk to him. i don't talk to him. >> reporter: it appears bannon

has a new nickname, the president tweeting i authorize 0 access to white house, turned him down many times, never spoke to him for book full of lies and sources that don't exist. watch what happens to him and sloppy steve. the president's lawyers threaten legal action against bannon for the statement is numerous reports suggest financial backers of bannon distancing themselves from him and finally if that wasn't enough one high-profile attorney said on another network he has on good authority bannon may be considering legal action against the president for defamation. heather: i am sure stuff will happen today. i want a copy of your book. we are now one step closer to

finding out who paid for the anti-trump dossier. a federal judge denying fusion gps's bid to squash a subpoena for its bank records. the judge ruling the firm behind the dossier must hand over the document to the house intelligence committee as part of his probe into russian election interference. fusion gps plans to appeal. france could make it illegal. >> it is all fake news, phony stuff, fake news. fake news. fake news. heather: french president macron passing a new law that would ban fake news during elections, websites would have to reveal their financial backers and authorities could remove false content and even block sites that publish it. making a deal on daca but donald trump telling democrats build a wall or i am not budging.

>> legislation on daca must secure the border with a wall and the legislation must end chain migration. it must end the visa lottery. republicans want to see it work out very well. if we have support from the democrats i think daca will be terrific. heather: can the president rally republicans and democrats together to get a bill passed? here to debate is commentary right for the washington examiner and democratic strategist, thank you for joining us early this morning. both sides come together on this? >> paying for the wall. the bottom line. it is not going to. when you think about what the campaign promise is, who is going to pay usa, that was not

it, it was mexico. get a check from mexico and we can talk about whether there is a wall. heather: donald trump says there has to be payment for the border wall for anything else to move forward. >> confusing with the definition of a wall is. donald trump, a physical, real wall, then james lankford, a 30 foot wall on the whole 2200 mile border. confusing with the president wants. one thing is clear, the result of these negotiations, this will impress on their minds -- >> how will that work? people on both sides in both parties not willing to budge, republicans would not be happy if donald trump makes a deal in

terms of daca. >> you can't underestimate the insurance pressure they are under because they have leverage going into this government shutdown debate. republicans need 60 votes to get any agreements across the finish line's, the difference is what democratic senator can work with republicans and survive backlash. heather: there is the same question in terms of democrats, extreme on their side. an agreement that works into this in terms of chain migration, they won't be happy. >> whether they will be happy with dreamers and government not shutting down and in terms of pressure on them they feel

pressure. and if the government should shut down. trump hasn't exactly, what are the parameters, are not going to fall on the sword again. >> there is reason -- lindsey graham saying some gets to the president's desk and historically, something democrats were not able to do when they control both chambers of congress and when it was a divided government. the fact there's appetite here is remarkable, a remarkable achievement if both sides are happy with the final results. heather: the appreciate it, have a great weekend. the time is 20 minutes until the top of the l. the rash of smartphones bursting into flames without warning, a
