then there was mike simpson saying the courts stopped this decision and we should move forward on funding the department of homeland security because it moves the issue forward. this was a fight that took up oxygen in the republican party over the last few weeks. it has been the defining issue of this new american congress as i like to say so far. i think the leadership really wanted this off the table after the beat-down they took this past friday where they appeared at their weakest. so what you'll see is this vote will pass tons of democrats and enough republicans and they'll live to fight another day regarding immigration reform. they still have to figure out, ari, the leadership does a way to stand up to the president regarding the immigration actions on -- and in a way to try to curtail them that will appease the conservatives in the house gop conference. >> ands put it luke. >> a beatdown. we'll count the votes. stay with us. another developing story on the

hill today, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu giving the congressional address, focused on iran. he tackled the controversy around the speech itself head on and expressed gratitude to president obama. >> i know that my speech has been the subject of many controversy. i deeply regret see my being here as political. that was never my intention. some of what the president has done for israel might never be known because it touches on some of the most sensitive and strategic issues that arise between an american president and an israeli prime minister. but i know it and i will always be grateful to president obama for that support. >> but it was not all consensus there. netanyahu slammed isis iran and the nuclear ambitions an the obama's administration attempts at diplomacy. >> this deal has two major con

sections, one, leaving iran with a vast nuclear program and two, lifting the restrictions on that program in about a decade. that is why this deal is so bad. iran has proven time and again that it cannot be trusted. 190,000 center fudges -- centrifuges and iran could make the fuel for an entire nuclear arsenal in a matter of weeks. it doesn't block iran's path to the bomb it paves the way to the bomb. so why would anyone make this deal. >> netanyahu was fixating on a bad nuclear deal with iran and that the president will take the pressure off of iran and while still moving toward the capability and yet he never outlined a specific deal such as a military strike or some other way to stop it from going

nuclear and that is a point the president emphasized in new comments at the white house. >> the alternative that the prime minister offers is no deal in which case iran will immediately begin once again pursuing its nuclear program, accelerate its nuclear program, without us having any insight into what they are doing. >> the deal we are trying to negotiate, that is not yet completed, would cut off the different pathways for iran to advance its nuclear capabilities. it would roll back some elements of its program. it would ensure that it did not have what we call a break-out capacity that was shorter than a year's time. and it would subject iran to the most vigorous inspections and verifications regimes that have ever been put in place. >> going back to luke russert.

he see the president's rebuttal there. is the sense on the hill that netanyahu's speech increased skepticism to the iran deal? >> amongst republicans, certainly,ary. i think you saw right there a forceful speech from benjamin netanyahu that essentially came out against ongoing u.s. foreign policy in the context of the negotiations with iran. and it is quite significant that that happened on the house floor. it is a rarity that you see a foreign leader willfully decrying u.s. foreign policy from theous floor.-- from the house floor. that gave it a political, shall i say, scent to it and you have the speaker and orrin hatch behind him. and nancy pelosi was so offended she was brought to tears because of the questioning of american intelligence regarding iran. so to put that in context, you have the house minority leader saying they were so offended

that someone would question the intelligence of the united states, that person who did that was a foreign leader on the house floor. it is very rare to see something of that magnitude happen within that chamber, ari. as far as where this goes, i spoke to a lot of democrats that had a lot of problems with the tone that netanyahu used ahead of an election. they said it was a big pep rally. republicans loved it and said this message needed to be heard that a nuclear iran is one of the top threats facing the united states and the national security and what better place to have it. as far as what this does for negotiation, march 24th is still the deadline. bob menendez on the committee in the foreign relations in the senate said he would be respecialful of that but -- respectful of that but benjamin netanyahu had a lot of eyeballs on him during this speech decrying the administration's effort right now. >> certainly. luke russert from the hill. and now someone who has written

speeches for israel and working for the kerry campaign and a friend of mine thanks for being here, jordan. >> hi ari. good to be on the show. >> and let's start with a brief question. you worked on these trips for israeli p.r. before. how was this one different? >> well the atmosphere is different, but the content if you look at the speech was really much of the same thing you hear from israeli leaders before american audiences. and in fact if you go to the speech that netanyahu gave in his first congressional address back in 1996 almost 20 years ago, he called iran the world's most dangerous threat and he asked for a u.s.-led coalition to prevent the nuclearization of iran. and so i think content was similar, but obviously this time there are politics involved. republican politics here and

benjamin netanyahu's party politics at home. and that just hasn't been seen in the past. and i think that is what is troubling to so many people this time. >> and you mentioned the prime minister's party, which has fair favored a hawkish approach to iran. and from what you saw today, how do you think it plays for him back in israel? >> well it will play well. netanyahu netanyahu gives good speeches. as a former speech writer, i would love to write a speech like he gave today and it plays into what he is doing now in the election. he just released a campaign ad in israel it is interesting to note saying somewhat misleading that the israel founder stood up to the u.s. in deciding when to declare israel's independence and in suggesting it takes a real leader to stand up to the u.s. well that is a lot different than the language he spoke about in his congressional address. i think it would have been hard to play that campaign ad before congress and then speak the kind

of bipartisan tone he did before the joint house. >> jordan what struck me more than anything this morning was the way that netanyahu commanded the room. i can't remember the last time i saw someone, not even our own president, command that level after tension from lawmaker-- level after tension from lawmakers. this was amazing. take a look. >> but i can guarantee you this. the days when the jewish people repays passive in the face of genocidal enemies, those days are over. [ applause ] >> jordan more than just the words in a speech like this how important is the tone here and his ability to get people on their feet the way that he did? >> i think it is real important. i think it is going to force, to some degree the administration to answer some questions. i mean, he basically said he said kerry was his long-time friend and also accused him of

meeting with basically someone who embraced terrorists, the foreign minister of iran he said in his speech. so i think it might force the administration to answer some questions. he knew he could do it and i think the administration knew he could give a speech like he did. >> jordan the tone of course is important but the substance is also crucial. and a lot of people are saying well where is the alternative. senator feinstein was out asking that question today. >> where it was weak is how to actually solve the problem. how to actually prevent iran from achieving a nuclear weapon. and right now, this is the only game in town. and the prime minister really didn't come up with any solutions. >> netanyahu made a powerful case for it we don't want iran to have a nuclear weapon ten years from now and they are saying that nation is three months away from getting a bomb so is it good for israel, for

netanyahu to be here saying we don't want this here because within three months iran could have the weapon he doesn't want them to have? >> well i'm not sure if everyone would agree with a three-month time frame. i don't know if it was good for him to be here. certainly it was for points. but points aren't policies and i think where netanyahu gives good speeches and is a good politician, he stops there. he is good at saying when deals are bad. he's done that on the palestinian issue with u.s. policy and good at saying the iran deal is bad. but of course like many generals and former ambassadors and other leaders in israel have said well, what are you going to do? i'm not sure if your making us safer by just going and sticking a finger in the president's eye. >> and jordan we heard nancy pelosi's statement and luke russert mentioned at the top of the suggest and she called the

speech condescending and an insult to our intelligence. those are strong words to our minority leader. do you think he has some fence mending to do with the united states congress and the u.s. in general and how would he go about doing that. >> i don't know if it was entirely con des ending i think netanyahu speaks with a degree of humorous. he set this up like a state of the union, and invited wisel and had the look of moses and i don't know if he was condescending as he was saying to congress you are my people and you are the people that congress -- or that people get along with and the back drop is why can't the administration get along with me. so i think the mending is with administration and not with congress. >> that is right. >> and that is well put. and the challenge to iran may be

long-running. and some of the political optics may be more than usual. thank you for your time today. and paging settlements in the passing of the bill of the department of homeland security. and more on jihadi john. and the netanyahu speech today and some backlash including congress peter welch, who is our guest next. >> even if israel has to stand alone. israel will stand. and we'll turn from international politics to this hillary story. you probably heard about it. but how much of a story is it? the cyclists the co-hosts everyone will get in on that one. unique set of nutrients. that's why there's ocuvite to help protect your eye health.

growing up culturally, it was quite unacceptable and she really dared to let me be different. [thunder and rain] [thunder and rain] [thunder and rain] let me talk to you about retirement. a 401(k) is the most sound way to go. let's talk asset allocation. sure. you seem knowledgeable professional. would you trust me as your financial advisor? i would. i would indeed. well, let's be clear here. i'm actually a dj.

we don't yet have a deal. it may be that iran cannot say yes to a good deal. i have repeatedly said that i would rather have no deal than a bad deal. but if we're successful in negotiating, then in fact this will be the best deal possible to prevent iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. >> and following benjamin netanyahu's speech to congress that the president read but didn't watch. and he didn't meet with the prime minister but instead on a

conference call with other leaders. the president was not the only one not interested in seeing netanyahu today. vice president biden as well. and some weren't cheating including the democrat from vermont in the room but perhaps decidedly not with bells on. sir, netanyahu said the deal the white house is discussing would guarantee iran gets a bomb at some fighture point -- future point in time. your retort to that was netanyahu has no alternative or no way of actually delaying the nuclearization of iran. plead expound. looking at your tweet. i am listening closely to netanyahu. love you working the twitter like that sir. >> that is the question. netanyahu has done two things

here. one, he's really just totally repudiated negotiations as a vehicle to try to get an non-nuclear iran and what he seems to be saying is no deal is better than any deal. and what does that mean? that means that there has to be some kind of military strike and that -- that -- and if he is going to take that position because he thinks that is essential to israel security. in my view he should say that. but the second thing the prime minister has done is he has created a partisan division here when in this country we've had bipartisan division for israel and he did that by deliberately going behind the white house and arranging this speech with a republican speaker for that reason. and in fact how is it good for israel in the long run to snub the president of the united states? by the way, keep in mind president obama supported over $20 billion in aid to israel. he supported and actually directed in a in the u.n. we repudiated the resolutions

condemning israel and he's had a friend here and don't treat a friend there. >> and you were tweeting up a storm. you said no single individual has done more to harm the vitally importantis u.s.-israel relationship than netanyahu. and the relationship has been degraded but it takes two to tango. but would you say president obama has done everything he possibly can to make this relationship work. >> i think the president has reached out. the reason i'm critical of what the prime minister did was in arranging this speech with the speaker and with the republican house, what he's decided is he will throw his lot in with the republican house and with a partisan approach rather than work with the president of the united states. you have to have the president of the united states involved. and it might be hillary clinton or mr. bush in the future. but they are the folks who are

really in charge of foreign policy. so netanyahu, i think, can always win points in congress. he was rl received here by -- he was well received here by congress. but the dynamic in which he has accelerated is one of division and you are already seeing in polls some erosion of the traditional support in this country for israel because there is a sense that netanyahu is meddling. >> congress and champion tweeter peter welch. thank you for your time. and another hot story that has washington buzzing, the revelation thathillk may have -- hillary clinton may have broken the rules by using her private e-mail while secretary of state. she has released 55,000 pages of e-mails. but there are more we have not seen. she said she operated by quote, the letter and spirit of the rules. for more on this oh, so developing story, we have brian boyler senior editor at the new republican.

brian, is this a big story? is this something that media should spend a lot of time parsing? >> well i think the media should spend time parsing because it is a practice at the state and apparently at the federal level and not necessarily because hillary clinton is hiding anything in the e-mails that haven't been released or did anything untoward by using her private e-mail when she was secretary of state, but hillary clinton has known since probably august of 2008 that she was going to run for president again in 2016 and that the nature of how the primary between her and obama was resolved meant that she would probably not face a whole lot of competition among democrats. which meant that she was going to be the one responsible for making sure that her blind spots were checked. she wasn't going to have primary contenders to do that and so she needed to exercise good judgment in everything that she did. and we've seen through this and

through her continuing to give paid speeches through the clinton foundations accepting money from foreign governments, that perhaps hillary clinton herself hasn't used the best political judgment as she's gone about her post-secretary pre-candidate phase. >> and brian, you suggested possibly that there hasn't been anything wrong here and she hasn't tried to hide anything and i think other people are looking at the story and trying to intimate she is hiding anything and if you look at her, she is probably the most investigated and most harassed political figure in modern history, is there any inclination or idea she thought she could have any privacy in any sector of the world that she wouldn't be investigated to the hilt, that any single e-mail public or private wouldn't come forward? >> i sort of doubt that she thought that she would do anything with an e-mail account like that. that would come out in discovery

or come out in congress or that would be leaked to reporters some day. i -- i sort of doubt that there is some kind of goldmine there. i think the real issue is that -- maggie haberman had a story about how hillary clinton had not picked somebody to vet her and she had not undergone the process of self-vetting. so despite the prose of between 1992 and 2008 and then again 2008 and through 2012 she was in the public spotlight and heavily vetted by virtue of being a public figure it has been a kuble of years since -- a couple of years since she was secretary of state and since those years she hasn't had anybody look over her shoulder. >> that is all politics and you are talking about 2016 and people are sniping. and she was part of the national security inner circle and this is not good government modern practice and you don't have the

same security checks nor protection on private e-mail and everything is off the books or through her subordinates or when she does need to do state business on her personal e-mail that is also bad practice because it opens herself up to other vulnerable security breaches and that goes back to the bigger question not if there is any scandal, and we have the same question -- the scandal question mark but right now the question is scandal question mark and no. but the answer is why take the security breach and why take that and why go forward and break rules designed to safeguard government materials because it is not your material? hillary doesn't own it and those are public services and documents and records? >> so that is where i come down. the question of whether she should have used a state department e-mail address or her own and the question is what

role is she serving? she is a public servant, and those e-mails need to be available to the public and that shows bad judgment. i'm not qualified to say whether that would be more secure than any other e-mail service. >> did she use an account from a former aide that was hacked. >> he hacked an e-mail she sent to somebody else. and she didn't violate the letter of the law as her spokesperson told the times, but the law on the books now became -- came on the books after she left -- a year and a half after. >> brian it seems that did you focus on this and you're her opponent, you focus on this you are wasting your time. brian, thank you very much. coming up major winter weather to talk about. 136 million americans under some

story? >> what we learned today is what people have been saying for a long time. the police targeted -- unfairly targeted african-americans. we talk about the use of warrants and fines and fees to buoy the city's economy. since 2014 there were 21,000 people in ferguson but 16,000 of them had warrants. that is big money for the city. but it comes down to the fact that investigators found e-mails between court officials and police and racist e-mails and about barack obama and about a black woman's abortion being a crime-fighting tools. and this is nothing unexpected from those on the ground or folks polling this story but -- following this story but it is another step from those in the community that there is a pattern and practice of discrimination here in the

community showing that brown was stopped by walking in the street that could get you arrested locked up fines and fees and so on thank you for that update. and this story marks a grim anniversary, one year since mh 370 disappeared right off the radar. not a single piece of debris has turned up no oil slick or toil wing or anything. still the search continues. scans of the area should be finished in may. it was identified by a final ping by a british firm. the plane was turning south but some experts disagree with that and they want to focus on central asia. jeff wise backs the northern arc scenario and he has a new kindle single, the plane that wasn't there and the article, how crazy am i to think i know where that malaysia airline is.

and you answer your question saying kind of crazy, but maybe right. what is your theory here? >> well the whole case is so crazy. i mean we've never had an aviation mystery like this before. we have this -- very few data points and no matter how you look at them it is hard to make them line up. so i agree the most likely case for what happened to this plane is yes, it most likely went south. that is what the data seems to say. but as you pointed out in your introduction, there is no debris and nothing has watched up on the beaches. >> which is pretty rare. >> which is extremely rare. very unusual. we just had an crash in december, the air asia crash with pieces washing up hundreds of miles away. we do expect to see something, one seat cushion and nothing. so as the time is running out on the clock, they will only -- the weather is getting bad and the winter is coming in the southern hemisphere and they can only search for so long. they will search for so long and say we've looked at the area of

highest probability. you can't search the whole indian ocean. and what will happen already the new york times is reporting they are announcing they will not continue the search. they will just let it go. because they've searched the high probability area and every day you look it gets less. >> you have a theory that you are just knocking down the main theory there. you have a theory that russia did this right? and i'm sort of curious as to what you imagine would be their motive for doing this which, if they did, this could create an international war? >> indeed. and listen this is an out landish theory. but because we haven't found anything else. we have to ask is there any other way that is physically possible and it turns out -- the question is the data said it went south, and my question is could the data have been faked or tampered with and falsified and if you look at how the plane was wired, it is possible to access a hatch usually left unlocked in the passenger cabin

and get down this there there is a cable and you can unplug it and plug it into a new box and mathematically you can -- part of the data can be corrupted and part can't and the part that can't be corrupted would suggest the plane went a certain way that ends in kazakhstan but it starts with math. >> what do you make that they haven't found anything a year later. >> we haven't found any debris and no human intelligence, no confessions, no suicide note and absolutely nothing. and this is just really hard to get our heads around. a lot of us i was on cnn for a long time talking about this day in and day out. >> i heard they covered that story. >> a little bit. a little bit. but people stopped talking about it. they said they were going to find -- remember they said they were going to find the plane. we heard the pings and there was

no plane. and then they said they would look over the southern indian ocean and they had the bottle of champagne because they were confident they would find it and it is still in the frig. and you ask what other solution can we find. so i've come up with this theory that is crazy and out landish but i think it is physically possible and falsifiable and it could be possible and let's look at see if it is possible. and honeywell who makes the electronics say the kind of hack is impossible and this is why and this is why it is laid to rest. but until then the story is laid to rest and they will stop talking about it. >> we are still talking about it a year later. >> no we are not. >> jeff wise thanks for being with us. we appreciate it. >> and disturbing new audio from the man that is the face of isis. jihadi john as we've not heard

i'm you're meteorologist steve sos gnaw. 136 million people are saying oh, no more winter. unbelievable. winter weather alerts from minnesota and to the dakotas and the reason why is this. part one of the winter storm moving through the great lake states. snowing in new york city for the evening commute home. not good timing. and it will continue toward boston later on this afternoon. this is the appetizer to a larger winter storm developing for many of you coming up tomorrow through the day on thursday. so let's track that storm right now. the snow through the evening commute. new york city and boston give yourself extra time. but it is the ribbon of snow developing across southern missouri and arkansas that has

eyes set up on d.c. and baltimore and new york city and possibly the southern suburbs of boston. how much snow are we looking at? a nice shovelable snow upwards of 6 inches. i have to remind you. 17 days until spring. back to you guys. >> thank you, steve. to a disturbing new video tape of jihadi john recorded and not confirmed by nbc news that is peers to be mohammed emwazi which he viewed as harassment by british authorities. he denies working with the terrorist sell bombing london and he seems different than the isis terrorist the world has seen on his more recent videos. >> what do you think about 9/11 and i told him, raffi, this is a different thing. this is wrong. what do you want to say? if i had an opportunity to come back then i would make those lives come back. i think what happened is wrong.

>> meanwhile today, his father now speaking out against his son saying he would like to take revenge on him for his mistodays according to nbc news in kuwait. according to the media, much of what we know about the terrorist groups comes from social media where terrorists and their sympathizers with discuss and debate and support terrorism. and that creates problems for social media. and twitter has drawn threats from isis supporters. prosecutors also are looking for new ways to go after content related to isis beyond free speech about terror and wade news active speech that supports terror. now that is a hard line to draw and one that tends to change when americans feel more at risk like during the red scare in the 1950s or when the sedition act was passed soon after the nation's founding. and that prompts charles slack's

book line -- liberty's first crisis. and does the free speech ebb and flow with the risks we face? >> i think absolutely people fear -- fear is the great enemy of liberty because when people become afraid their tolerance for opinions that they see as destructive to the country or to the american people shrinks rapidly. >> and when you look back at the history of free speech there are protections to help people like we have fight against hate speech and laws against you can't yell fire in a crowded theater and then it looks like there are protections around free speech for preserving power and those were much more suspicious. how are we shaping up today versus the times when the sedition act was being passed? >> well the sedition act of 1798 came about during a period of crisis. people were just as passionate then about the crisis going on

as we are today about our crises. and the federalist party in power controlling congress and the john adams' fedder assy got -- federal assy got fed up and had had enough and the great irony in adams was he was most forceful about free speech when he was speaking out against the british authorities and now when he was in power he didn't like it so much and the sedition act made it illegal to criticize the government with heavy fines and jail time. >> wow! >> and what they did was set in motion the first great test or hurdle of whether we will live up to the first amendment. >> how today do we differentiate between free speech and terrorism and when you have blogs and facebook and people wanting to join with isis or

sympathizing with their efforts, at what point are we allowed to step in and do something about that? >> that is a great question and there is a very difficult line that has to be drawn with that example of fire in the crowded theater, imminent harm a clear and present danger where you are putting somebody else's rights directly at risk. i think that what you can't do is use your rights to destroy somebody else's rights. and exactly where that begins and ends is a very fine line. but i also think that if we're interested in preserving history, we have to agree that being offended is not where that line is drawn. >> absolutely. >> because if you can say, i don't like what you said and prevent you from saying it the right of speech really transfers from the person doing the speaking to the person who is hearing and liberty i don't think can survive that. >> it will continue to be one of our greatest challenges. charles slack. thank you for being with us.

and according to 79% of americans, that is what it is. somebody born with a special gift. that is according to the project seven down for the project -- seven days of genius. joining us now is mike berland. this is really a fascinating subject. i think there are a lot of different ideas about it. i was disheartened to hear the statistic that 79% of people think geniuses are just born. i was wondering if we needed to change our definition. >> i love the fact that people think geniuses are born but the question is do we have a system that lets the genius come out so they can have their impact. >> the problem with the idea that genius is born is that it tends to get located within a certain demographic. 90% of americans think genius

tends to be male. genius tends not to be black or brown generally. you said the typical white male. how do we get people to expand the notion of who is a genius? >> we have to have a system that creates role models. who is the female genius? people would say malala. who is the african-american genius? who is the hispanic genius? we have to identify those people and create the aspiration so they can come out. >> the survey is really fascinating. we agree across the board on a number of things. 47 versus 53 percent on whether geniuses are nearly perfect or deeply flawed. we think they are strange instead of social. this surprised me. if you're a genius you're not

the coolest person in the room. >> we have to stop these stereotypes. we have to get rid of this geeky social awkward person. the genius is among us. it is a mirror in front of them to see how they're reflecting on their attitudes towards society. >> what surprised you the most from the survey? >> it surprised me most that there are not more female geniuses out there and people can't name them. i was happy that 50% of americans said they new a genius. >> the genius is among us, as you said. and i'm here for our genius krystal ball because she's preparing msnbc.com red carpet governor of the emily's list 30th anniversary gala.

congress has looked pretty dysfunctional lately from sparring over just one week of funding for homeland security and then breaking protocol for today's speech by the prime minister of israel. senator james inhofe packed up a nice snowball in a ziploc bag and brought it to the senate floor. >> in case we have forgotten, because we keep hearing that 2014 has been the warmest year on record i asked the chair --

do you know what this is? it's a snowball and that's just from outside here. so it's very very cold out. very unseasonable. here, mr. president, catch this. >> inhofe was basically suggesting the existence of snow on one part of the earth somehow disproves global warming. then there was also a rebuttal to that debate. >> every major american scientific society has put itself on record many of them a decade ago, that climate change is deadly real. so you can believe every single major american scientific society or you can believe the senator with the snowball. you can believe nasa and you can believe what their satellites measure on the planet or you can believe the senator with the snowball. >> as they say on the senate

floor, oh, snap. that was senator sheldon whitehouse. he's a democrat from rhode island. it's one thing to say the government shouldn't regulate climate change. another to pretend that climate change doesn't even exist or it is somehow disproven by the existence of winter. senator, what moved you to march down there with that rebuttal? >> well i guess first there are an awful lot of people out there who are working very very hard to deal with climate change to explain climate change to try to reduce the threat of climate change, and i think they deserve to have sort of loopy comments like those that were made on the senate floor rebutted. >> another interesting part of that is that senator whitehouse

has been waging a battle. he marchses down to the floor to talk about the science. we in the media cover conflict more than policy addresses. i asked him about that as well. >> you see so much progress kind of inch by inch and often behind the scenes but we went from climate change being an issue that nobody would talk about to really starting to put pressure on the republicans and making things difficult to finally force the votes where they had to admit that it wasn't a hoax and many of them had to admit that humans have something to do with it. particularly with the 2016 election coming up they have to start making sense. they can't be the flunkys of the

coke brothers and survive. >> as the old saying goes, every snowball journey begins with a single snowflake. that may not be the saying but that is the end of our show today. that is the end of "the cycle." prime minister netanyahu is received with standing ovations from congress but not from the white house. it is tuesday, march 3rd and this is "now." after weeks of political hand wringing on capitol hill prime minister netanyahu has spoken. he spoke before congress for almost an hour this morning. as 50 congressional democrats skipped his address, netanyahu insisted that his unorthodox visit wasn't about american politics or the president. >>
