protesters condemning the he does read it before it's president, he sent this message released, what kind of backlash to immigrants and asylum could that create? >> there will be tremendous seekers. >> the system is full. can't take you any more. whether it's asylum, whether backlash. democrats are taking this on. it's anything you want. they know, they're seizing on to it's illegal immigration, can't take you any more. these mueller associate comments that have come out this week, we can't take you. our country is full. that i've said this barr report our area is full. the sector is full. can't take you any more, i'm sorry, it can't happen. turn around, that's the way it didn't talk about everything. is. the house and 20 states of suing they're digging in, they're the president over his emergency convinced they're in the right, declaration. and they're going to hear more about that from them soon. >> what about if the president democrats underlining humanitarian needs they witnessed. reads the mueller report before its released. >> asylum seekers are being what do you think happens. turned away at the ports of entry. >> i have been to a refugee we have to have this part redacted, this part redacted. right? >> that's so william bar works facility in jordan, and i tell for the president. you, there are things i saw here he gives the full copy, william today in the united states of america that were worse than what i saw in jordan. >> what we're doing to these barr hands it over.

people is the most unamerican the concern the public would have is that the president would thing i have ever seen. use his influence to decide what >> at the same time, the legal gets held back from the public, battle over the president's tax returns is heating up. what gets redacted, what gets the president's lawyer telling held back from congress. the irs house democrats have no legislation mat legislative any political strategist would reason to request the tell the president, stay away president's tax returns, and from seeing the full report. that is a political attack. well, the chair of the weighs and means committee gave the irs let barr do his report without until wednesday to release six years of the president's personal and business tax returns. his interference. richard neil is invoking a portion of the tax code law that it's -- we've gotten to the gives his committee the authority to request information from any taxpayer. the president's response? point where barr gave us the top >> i got elected. they elected me. line conclusions, there's a lot of detailed information there now they keep going. i'm under audit. about what the president and when you're under audit, you don't do it. people on his campaign were other people are under audit and doing with russians that voters need to know for making a nobody would do it when you're going through an audit. decision in 2020 and members of i always go through audits, they congress need to know to decide audit me all the time. whether or not they think >> just moments ago, the house impeachment proceedings are majority whip spoke to joy reid appropriate. >> let's move to the fight over and he predicts democrats have the president's tax returns.

the law on their side if this his lawyer is arguing this is an battle gets to the supreme attempt to damage the president court. politically. is this mainly fodder and >> maybe we'll have to go to court -- >> you trust the courts? something that will stick to the base? donald trump has seated the >> yeah, i mean this is something we saw in 2016, courts with his own people. >> that's true, but it seems to democrats really wanted his tax me that at some juncture, we may returns released then. be abe will to get 5-4 in the there's been a quiet drum beat direction of preserving the about that since then. they're going to have integrity of this great country significant troubles getting it of ours. now, and even if they do, there >> to get us started, nbc's hans are all kinds of legal problems nichols, with the president in las vegas. or potential legal problems if mariana in el paso, texas. they release parts of it. we have eugene scott from the they have to walk a very fine washington post, and john harwood, welcome to all four of line on this. they could be doing them sfs a you, we begin with hans as you're traveling with the lot of trouble i think this is a president in vegas. i know the president has been up and tweeting this morning, precarious spot they find what's on his mind? themselves in now. >> a lot of politics, alex, a >> the law's on their side and lot of politics from the president, yesterday he tried to they're predicting should this make it about the border, you go all the way to the supreme court, they would rule in favor played that sound from him, of releasing the president's tax having to answer the questions returns. about his tax returns, that new i've heard push back, the effort by house democrats trying president has placed two people to compel the president to do on the supreme court.

it, and now we have a new he feels it's his supreme court argument for the president's lawyers, it's a novel one, we shouldn't fault him for that. now. >>. they seem to be suggesting the >> i think the democrats would have to make a strong case for president has a first amendment right not to release his taxes. why they need to see the tax returns, right now house the lawyer said, it's a democrats are saying they want transparent effort by one to see the tax returns. political party to harass an we know if the president has any official from the other party, because they dislike his politics and his speech, it financial ties to russia or some seems as though they're other foreign government that we suggesting that congressional oversight is an effort to need to know about. and that is one reason that silence the president and take presidential candidates in the away his first amendment rights. past have released their taxes as for the mueller report, and what's happening with the latest when they're running, so they on the investigation. obviously on the president's give voters information about how they run their personal mind this morning, he also financial port foelt yo, and tweeted about this suggesting that he could indeed read the what kind of links they have mueller report if he wanted to. that voters need to know in the that's the first time we've heard that line from the showing the voters the tax president, in the past he's been saying, it's up to william bar, returns and the democrats will he's somewhat agnostic on have reason for seeing whether it will be released, but he trusts william barr. this morning, he said he could those tax returns. read it, he's not. it's a phony witch hunt. >> joe biden had this to say,

>> thank you very much, hans nichols. joining me right now. they had encounters with them that made them feel political reporter at the uncomfortable, they stopped short, every one of them of washington post. happy saturday thanks for joining me. accusing him of any kind of let's go to the tax return battle, you have the president's sexual assault or sexual abuse. >> i want you to know, i had lawyer who argues this is an attempt to damage the president permission to hug lani. politically, what's the line from democrats in response to that? >> democrats are saying that the by the way, he gave me person public simply needs to know if the president is compromised or in some type of permission to touch him. >> sorry i didn't understand, business dealing or philanthropic or any other type i'm not sorry for any of my of situation financially with intentions. >> he was with a friendly foreign governments. businesses abroad that could audience when he made those first joking comments to which the audience laughed. influence how he supports, promotes policy ideas that could be in direct harm to the you have written about this story, why would he joke about american people and perhaps in his own personal best interests. that. can i ask, where is barack obama there's also frustration on the in this, your title of your left that the arguments coming from trump and his lawyers and article says obama is quiet as other surrogates about why it is obama comes under attack. that he cannot release his tax >> that's the thing.

a lot of people have been asking returns, continue to change, and that's creating great suspicion me where does obama stand on among the base who are not going this, i think he realizes, if he to give up this issue, especially as we move forward to inserted himself in this debate, 2020. >> as we look forward, john, the it would add fuel to the fire and he probably wouldn't be decision ultimately to release doing joe biden any favors. the tax returns of the joe biden is someone who can president. that gets decided by the treasury secretary, right? handle this on his own, a lot of here's what steve mnuchin told people think, that's the the weighs and means committee situation he finds himself in. last month. >> we will follow the law, and he is in berlin, where he might we will protect the president as get asked about it today. we would protect any individual taxpayer under their rights. i expect him to stay quiet on >> are those one in the same? this, and let joe biden handle i mean, can he follow the law and protect the president at the this on his own. same time? >> thanks to the heads up in the >> well, they're actually in article, we have a producing conflict with each other, as you watching that event in per lynn. suggested. the statute seems to be clear on he did not address it nor was he its face that the chairman of the weighs and means committee asked about it biden has also can get that information. said he wants to be the last one the law says that the irs shall to announce he's running for president. furnish those returns on

request. you quoted the lawyers argument here's what he said. before. in theory, donald trump is not a >> the vast majority of the party to this case. this is between the congress and members of the democratic party the internal revenue service and the treasury secretary as the are still basically liberal to supervising cabinet officer over the internal revenue service. moderate democrats in the traditional sense. it seems inevitable that the i'm an obama/biden democrat, and president -- off yes, sirly the i'm proud of it. >> do you think that's a message president is embarrassed by that would help him win both something in his tax returns, moderate voters and those who this has been a controversy for want progressive policies? years, he's consistently refused >> i think he's in a tough position here. a lot of energy and excitement to show them. is behind these candidates that the audit does not prevent him, are having these positions that we all know from releasing his are further left than the democratic party has been before. tax returns, other presidents have provided their tax returns i think biden wants to see those while under audit. he wants to keep these secret. now the democrats have the power arguments play out. let some of those candidates in the house, the law seems to give them the clear right to request them. come up. he has to figure out a way to do the lawyer for the president is that, but capture some of the trying to inject himself into excitement that some of the

this process with the legal other candidates are capturing right now. >> thank you so much. argument, and as james clyburn i'll talk to you both again suggested, this is likely to end soon. appreciate it. turning now to the border, up in the courts if they don't relent. and then the question is, if it the cbp closing a cargo lane as gets all the way up to the supreme court, what does john federal agents are shifted to help progress migrants who are roberts want to do? does he want topresident's aroud seeking asylum. that's where we find mariana. when we spoke with you in the last hour, we saw that there's definitely -- there's a log jam there. fothe democratic request as i mean, a huge traffic jam. is that the kind of impact it's having so far? >> yes, alex. opposed to the sfakt of the request, he can stand in his way. or it -- as he's done in some other cases, he can say, i don't we're told that line goes back want this court to be seen as 10 miles. political, and that's where jim trucks not able to go through clyburn may get the 5-4 majority here, having to go to other he wants. bridges. >> looking at trump tweets from that's putting business in a pinch. today, he just a short time ago to talk more about that, i want to bring in the ceo of the tweeted on the release of the mueller report saying, i have border plex alliance, represents 250 businesses here along the not read the mueller report yet, even though i have every right border, what is this causing, to do so. does he have that right, and if what are you hearing from folks? >> it's having a devastating he does read the report before

it's released, what kind of impact on our local economy. backlash could that create? >> well, as far as he's >> her from a few business concerned, he has the right because he has put in place an people today, it's impacting their businesses in a way that attorney general who he believes actually shutting down their for the most part will protect his best interests in terms of businesses temporarily. this will have a ripple effect whether or not what he was in the national economy. accused or suspected of doing >> shutting down businesses. actually happened. whether or not that report can we're talking about higher actually be released to the president as is, there's some americans, you is moving cbp debate with that there's certainly some that believe as agents is having the adverse president, as commander in effect. chief, he can see the full report, there's others who >> wait times for 12 to 24 hours. really believe that they have to go through congress and get some permission, before this report this is going to have a is released beyond the attorney devastating impact on the u.s. general and so right now, it's economy, if we don't solve this issue soon. not incredibly clear, but i think what he does end up doing >> we're talking about 14 hours, is exposing himself and proving 16 hour waits for things like medical equipment. to even some of his most ardent can you tell me more about those supporters that he's campaigning. claiming that a report that he's examples? >> a gentleman who has a

business here and in new jersey, not even seen is vindicating him is looking at moving 200 jobs in ways that it's not. from a new jersey facility that therefore, leaving many people, even some perhaps on the right to ask, did the mueller report has direct supply chain connections here to europe, so that he can ensure that these actually say everything that the barr summary said it did. stents he makes, heart stents >> that's interesting. if the president were to read the mueller report before it are made available to the gets released, what's your take medical industry in the united states. on what happens? >> thank you so much. >> the only question that's for your insight, john. relevant is whether or not the thank you. >> you're welcome. president would interject as you heard, jobs potentially himself in redactions to the mueller report or the being moved to europe because of these bottlenecks to europe. suppression of part of the as they're being shifted to aide report. if as bill barr has suggested in migration. instead of facilitating the flow in traffic here. he's going to make public or give to congress all the information that can safely be >> thank you. given that doesn't -- a national playing politics, some republicans accuse democrats of security information. then the president would have every right to read that just abuse of power by requesting the like everyone else would. president's tax returns. but if the president got a copy a reaction from the committee trying to get the returns next. of the report and directed bill we're oscar mayer deli fresh and you may know us from... bar not to release certain things that are embarrassing to the president, that's where the

concern would come in. >> but then bill barr would have to agree with the president to do that. he could not take the direction from the president? >> he could. but i think that's the issue. is would bill barr bow to the president's wishes. i think bill barr deserves a presumption of good faith on his handling of the mueller report, which is in the process of being prepared to go to congress. no one can be certain that the president wouldn't try to up end that process. >> eugene, john, you guys, stand by right now, we wanted to head to the border, the cbp closed a cargo lane in el paso texas, it's doing so because federal agents are being shifted to process migrants. good day to you, mariana. this closure has to have some sort of impact, what's happening so far? >> this closure is adding to the bottleneck here at el paso, i'm

going to move to the side to my cameraman can show you the bridge of the americas, where the import lane is closed. that is where those 18 big trucks here. you're seeing a bottleneck with old vehicles, heavy, heavy traffic coming in from mexico,e come in through here are being diverted to other two bridges,n your very first sandwich, your mammoth masterpiece. business people who tell us, and...whatever this was. their truckers have been stuck in these lines for 14 and 16 because we make our meat with the good of the deli and no artificial preservatives. hours, because as you said, these agents that should be here make every sandwich count with oscar mayer deli fresh. facilitating this traffic have now been moved to aiding did you eat all of your treats? migrants and asylum seekers. i want to play some sound for ♪ help! i need somebody you from miriam. ♪ help! not just anybody she's the owner of omega. ♪ help! you know i need someone she tells us that ultimately, the people that are paying the price for this is the american consumer.

>> i'm just a little supply chain. piece of the little supply chain of the manufacturing. these are american companies that are expecting their product on time. one little piece that doesn't come into their plant, it shuts down the plant. so who -- everybody's hurting, this is not a good business for anybody. but especially us, the american people who are the taxpayers. we are going to be hurt the most. >> alex, like miriam, i've spoken to folks in agriculture, in medical equipment, in automotive, even business owners who supported the president in 2016. and they've told me that the flip-flopping on the border, the talk of border shutdown, now this talk of tariffs, it's the enemy of prosperity and economic development, not only here at the border, but ultimately the ripple effect is nationwide, alex? >> absolutely, it's more than just grocery cell stock, are that's for sure.

we're going to get to more on the bat tle over the border p in an interview with fox news, the president explained why he backed off from this threat to close the border. here it is. >> mexico now, for the first time is apprehending people and bringing them back, and this is otherwise, we're going to close up the border. we've had a great four days and it only started when i said we're going to close the border. they're not requesting the >> okay. that's not true. tax returns in order to look at this data, it shows that investigate a problem in the mexico has been all along need of oversight at all. apprehending the migrants, those coming through the southern all they really care about is finding a pretext to bring this border into mexico. president down. this merely fodder and something >> chuck grassley on house that will stick with the president's base? >> absolutely. democrats move to obtain i mean, we have data. president trump's tax returns from the irs. everyone knows how mexico has joining me now, lloyd doggen of responded to migrants on the border did not begin four days texas. he issued that request as part ago, the president is trusting that his most faithful supporters are only watching of the weighs and means

media outlets and reading media committee. what do you make of the senators outlets, that cover him claim there? >> same old song. favorably and don't push back on this is the same message his misstatements and sometimes even lies. republicans used during the six times that i tried to get this and his -- of the report when they were covering up. they want to focus on their american public so close to him. what he ends up doing he risks enabling president trump to be the chance of losing the independent voters who backed above the law, rather than the clear command of this law, they him in 2016 and who actually shall provide the documents as i helped him get elected, who consume more than just fox news asked secretary mnuchin when he and media organizations like was in front of our committee, this one, that do fact check them and communicate that what he is saying about immigration, what part of shall do you need advice on. president trump apparently thinks that he can interfere and about the border, about trade actually is not true. intimidate the internal revenue >> john, the president goes from saying he's not kidding around service and the treasury department into ignoring the and he's probably going to close law. the border this week, to then >> well, in addition to that on friday, i'm sure you heard his yesterday being their in attorney, his personal attorney colexico right along the border, asserted that the president has a right to keep his tax returns basically throwing praise at the private. the lawyer telling the treasury behavior of the mexican department not to give the officials. what do you make of this? returns to the house democrats. >> the president values what's your take on that? >> well, i think if anything, projecting an image that he's a

the president's tweets and what strong and effective leader. even when he's talking -- he's his lawyer has done all making assertions that aren't reinforce the need for us to get true. so what he wanted to do was look access to these returns. if they can intimidate the as if he were being tough, i'm going to close the border, and internal revenue service into then he -- when he realized and not falling the clear command of the law, we have to wonder if his party realized and the chamber of commerce realized, they've intimidated the irs in the auditing process. republican members of the senate knew it would be a disaster, the auditing process is one of the issues we want to explore. economically, to do that, no one is for doing that. indeed the whole question of why then the president comes up with it is that the president seems to be under constant audit over an excuse to say, this is why i didn't close the border, because prior years, that gives him no i did get results. excuse not to provide his return i caused mexico to do certain for public review, but it does things. raise a question as to whether it isn't true as you said, but there's a serious tax avoidance it is essential to his self image and what he's trying to problem here. our job is to ensure the project to people that he's tough and getting things done, this is why you see the integrity of the federal tax system to ensure public president on countless issues confidence that everyone is complying with the laws. saying no one was talking about this until i came here, or and to get the returns on the nobody -- jobs weren't being most powerful person in the country and assure that the irs added to our economy until i got was doing its job is a really here. it isn't true, but this is part

important legislative function. of the persona of donald trump >> on the heels of stating that intention, here's a bit more that he tries to sustain. from your colleagues on the other side of the capitol hill, >> okay. i'm just going to leave it at louisiana senator john kennedy here talking about chair richard that. john, eugene, thank you so much for the conversation. neil who was specifically >> the case for reparations, requested the returns many. >> i can't believe he really what the 2020 candidate said thinks the american people are about it this week. going to fall for that. yes. it must really suck to be that dumb. look, this is very simple. mr. neil wants to screw with the president, he doesn't think the president ought to be president. well, you know, words can't express how much i don't care. >> any reaction to that assessment? >> you know, it's really troubling that's the spirit, the forceful enables of so many of our colleagues on both sides of the aisle on so many issues have it's way day! it's wayfair's biggest sale of the year, said this president is above the law. and you're invited! he thinks he's above the law. starting april 10, he's the one person in this score our lowest prices since black friday country that shall means maybe, if i want you to get it.

on best-selling furniture, decor, and way more. plus, everything ships free on way day. everything? we need to ensure the integrity everything. and flash deals launch all day long. of our system, and to recognize hey guys, check out the flash deal i just scored! there will always be republican our biggest sale of the year only lasts 36 hours so shop way day starting april 10 at wayfair.com. apologies. mr. neil took a long time to craft a narrow request, not near as broad as i think we should wenit gave me a leafput in the names almost right away. first. within a few days, have. with that narrow request, i went from knowing almost nothing to holy crow, clearly stated objectives for the request, there's no good i'm related to george washington. i didn't know that using ancestry would be so easy. reason not to follow this. i know they think there's some republican activist that will interpret shall to be maybe, i think judges will look at the statute and recognize if the congress doesn't have a power to do this kind of oversight, why is there a legislative branch at all to hold the executive accountable? >> let's move on to the mueller you wouldn't accept an incomplete job report here, as you know, the from any one else. why accept it from your allergy pills? new york times' first report flonase sensimist relieves all your worst symptoms, that some on mueller's team say including nasal congestion, the report was more damaging which most pills don't. than barr revealed. and all from a gentle mist some members of mr. mueller's you can barely feel. team are concerned because mr.

flonase sensimist. barr created the first narrative of the special counsel's you might or joints.hing. for your heart... but do you take something for your brain. findings, american's views will have hardened before the with an ingredient originally discovered in jellyfish, investigation's conclusions become public. prevagen has been shown in clinical trials given the potential for that to to improve short-term memory. happen, should jerry ed that prevagen. healthier brain. better life. letter move forward with issuing a subpoena for the full mueller report right now? >> well, i certainly share the concerns reflected in that report, you know, i think president trump would be satisfied with us seeing only 400 of his tweets. we need the full 400 pages of the report, not some four page bet from his appointee to prepare the way and the public mood about this report. if there's nothing in there that is damaging to him, there's no good reason to make the report fully available to the public as he and so many republicans have all of you. said and actually in the house how you live, what you love. voted to do. that's what inspired us to create america's most advanced internet. i believe that chairman ed that internet that puts you in charge. letter has the subpoena, he's acting in a judicious way there.

that protects what's important. and i expect if we don't get the it handles everything, full report, he willing proceed and reaches everywhere. with a subpoena, i hope that's this is beyond wifi, this is xfi. not necessary. and let me say, if mr. barr is simple. easy. awesome. xfinity, the future of awesome. planning to redact the report and remove things, we don't need a reader's digest abridged version, he needs to give the justification for that blacking out, and then the committee can decide whether to subpoena those portions that are not provided. >> as we look at the president's tweets today, he's tweeted out that he's not yet red the mueller report, even though i have every right to, what do you think happens if the president gets a first look at the report. >> well, i think he needs to get a look at every word in that report and not a second before. >> again, this is just reflective as with his tax i'm under audit, from what i returns as with all of his cone understand, the law is 100% on duct that he thinks he's a my side. little better than the rest of

john kennedy, who is blasting starting april 10, your weighs and means committee score our lowest prices since black friday richard neil with your request. take a listen. on best-selling furniture, decor, and way more. plus, everything ships free on way day. >> i can't believe he really thinks the american people are everything? going to fall for that. everything. and flash deals launch all day long. it must really suck to be that hey guys, check out the flash deal i just scored! our biggest sale of the year only lasts 36 hours dumb. this is very simple. mr. neil wants to screw with the so shop way day starting april 10 at wayfair.com. president. he doesn't think the president ought to be president. straight from the world's best plant scientists, comes miracle-gro performance organics. well, you know, words can't organic plant food and soil that finally work... express how much i don't care. >> what's your reaction to that for twice the bounty. guaranteed. assessment? >> well, my reaction is that miracle-gro performance organics. very intemperate response from you wouldn't accept an incomplete job from any one else. senator kennedy is because they why accept it from your allergy pills? most pills don't finish the job know that they don't have the because they don't relieve nasal congestion. law on their side. flonase sensimist is different. again, what's the mean meaning it relieves all your worst symptoms, including nasal congestion, which most pills don't. of shall? this notion that we need a it's more complete allergy relief. legislative reason in order to and all from a gentle mist obtain the tax returns is you can barely feel. flonase sensimist helps block six key inflammatory substances. absurd.

and i would guess that the most pills only block one. supreme court or whatever court and six is greater than one. this ends up in will give us the flonase sensimist. plane meaning of the word shall. if they don't, then we are in trouble. >> there's a headline from politico which reads, democrats face minefield if they get trump's tax returns. if they do get the president's filings, that the filings could be protected by strict confidentiality laws. so with respect to leaks, how big a risk is this? >> well, i think our communities are responsible. i think that if there are counter intelligence issues, related to the tax returns and i don't know that there would be, that would be handled by the intelligence committee. i do know that i was previously a member of the financial services committee. and we're very concerned about the strange relationship the president had with deutche bank. we all know that deutche bank

has been cited openly for money laundering and an untoward relationship with russian oligarchs. i think that there are substantive reasons that the committee will look at for these tax returns, and i think that we concerns growing after a security breach, so a chinese woman facing federal charges now are really -- that democrats are after being found on the groins within their legal rights to have these tax returns, whatever with an unusually large amount arguments are being made, they of devices, including malwear. she has no ties to the u.s. are not significant and she says that at least. substantial with regard to our joining me now natasha bertrand. plane legal rights under section let's get into this one, the woman who was arrested here's 61.03, which emanated from the nixon watergate dwa back el to what she's found with. four cell phones, a laptop, a thumb drive and a hard drive have these tax returns. with malicious malware. she said she was going to the pool. >> to go down the road that was i mean, what exactly could have all that done at the resort? >> no, it's really amazing, suggested by my interview, he suggested the president has not alex, i mean, mar-a-lago is just

released his tax returns time and time again. a counter intelligence nightm e nightmare. it would amount to maybe showing it's not even the secret service that determines whether visitors the american public he's not as get in, it's the club staff. the secret service protects wealthy as he claims he is or not as philanthropic as he various people that have a security detail. claims he is. none of which is criminal. with regard to who is able to if that were to be the basis of access the club, that is left up what is discovered would to the club staff and basically republicans have a fair line of two security checkpoints that attack on democrats who have separate anyone who wants to get gone down this road? >> well, you know, i in from the interior of the club. so it's really -- >> natasha, i'm going to ask you personally -- i'm not interested about that, i had max bacchus in embarrassing the president, on, who is also the former he's done that job too well ambassador to china earlier. himself. i'm concerned about these he said the secret service is not doing a good job of relationships with russian protecting mar-a-lago right now. you're saying, because it's a oligarchs, i'm concerned about private entity, it supersedes the authority of the secret indebtedness to russian oligarchs. service when it comes to i'm concerned about the protecting the president and his family? >> correct, so that is actually what the secret service said substantive issues that we yesterday, recently, last week are -- i'm not interested in in a statement, they sid, look, releasing information to say we do what we have to do to protect the people that have ah-ha, you're not as rich as you say you were. secret service detail. ultimately, who is able to

access the club? and they do routine sweeps for >> let's go to what the bugs around the perimeter, but president was doing this week until after the 2020 election. ultimately who has the access to but the debate. the club is up to the clubs staff. that is a major problem, because particularly over the issue of according to recent reports. pre-existing conditions that isn't going any time soon how many many foreign nationals have been visiting mar-a-lago since big of an issue do you think this is going to be on the trump was inaugurated. campaign trail for 2020 democrats. particularly chinese nationals. one employee at mar-a-lago >> as a person who was diagnosed described it as a circus. last year weapon cancer, i am people want access to the terrified about the repeal of president who are looking into vulnerabilities in the security the affordable care act. of mar-a-lago, who are able to i mean, there are 133 million walk in. they have to be on a guest list, people who would lose their but this woman she was able to get into the property and it was coverage -- would be at risk of only after she was inside that they realized she was note on losing their coverage if this the guest list. law were overturned. what could she have done in the interim, that's a big question and not just the 133 million they're investigating now. people with pre-existing the >> either you're a guest of conditions, but the millions someone or you're willing to more, 30 million people under pony up $200,000 to join the club and you're in, that's that. medicare who would lose we have three leading senate

benefits. the couple million students who democrats who have asked are currently on their parents christopher ray to investigate whether foreign spies could exploit the weakness at health insurance because of this mar-a-lago, try to get their law. this law will have an impact on hands on classified info. how concerning, put it in perspective, is the every american with regard to vulnerability of the mar-a-lago their premiums they have pay. this does also have an impact on resort. >> it's extremely concerning, those people who don't benefit but it is known as the winter white house, this is a place directly from the accordable care act. the affordable care act did that the president and his family spend a lot of time, spread the risk. you know what, i think we ought people can just kind of go to the property and it's up to the club staff to determine who gets to just rename this thing romney let in, the secret service does care and call it a day. and declare victory for not have a private authority everyone. >> there's a thought, that might work. i hope you are happy and over the club, because it's owned by trump himself. healthy, regardless of your when we had the president have that open air conference with diagnosis. >> need my obamacare. the president of japan, back in just need it. >> that will keep you healthy and happy then. 2017 i think it was, where they one more question on the issue were just talking about national of reparations. it's an issue that's got security issues out in the open, that really made people think, momentum, your colleague in wow! this is an area where there could be serious national texas believe black americans

security vulnerabilities, should receive reparations for because of all the people who slavery. are surrounding the president, there was the national action at the club when he's discussing conference this weekend, let's sensitive national security listen to what they had to say. issues, open on the patio and >> if that passes. he's very obviously -- he has loose lips, he doesn't really and you are president of the think very much about what he united states, would you sign that birl? says before he says it. and so combine that with all the >> yes, of course. of the people who are able to have access to the club, and it's kind of the national >> i support congresswoman security counter intelligence jackson lee's hr 40. >> yes. when i'm elected president, i nightmare. >> people sitting at the next will sign it. >> yes, i'm going to apass it. table having dinner, wait, what did he say? >> of course i would sign it. >> yes, i would. >> it's interesting. natasha, we're going to discuss >> i firmly support it more with you, thank you so much. >> thank, alex. congresswoman jackson lee's he's a democrat whose going right after the voters who made the difference for the president bill. >> there is a lot of support for in 2016, has he done enough to the bill. does that mean something on the win the rust belt vote again? campaign trial? >> i don't think people have let's go to college decided on what reparations would constitute, but i think basketball's final four, the women's side, notre dame the smithsonian museum has outlasted connect cut in a nail biter. they're going to face the baylor really brought this thing to the forefront. bears who beat the oregon ducks

when you look at the amounts of in a back and forth battle. millions of dollars and current baylor and notre dame will meet in the championship game value would be billions of tomorrow. on the men's side, auburn plays dollars that were generated from the slave trade. i mean, you think of actions of tonight. top ranked virginia in the first of the final four games, texas tech will be taking on the spartans of michigan state. play well guys and girls. s why h today's goals... companies like jpmorgan that actually ensured the slave ships. ...all while helping you to and through retirement. cotton, sugar, rice, these are can you help with these? products that generated millions and billions of dollars, that we're more of the plan, invest and protect kind of help... voya. helping you to african-americans will never be able to recover. and through retirement. i remember reading a book, now out of print unfortunately, by theodore cross, that talked about how impossible it would be for african-americans to ever make up what was lost during slavery. i personally think that what we need prior to discussion of reparations. is a truth in reconciliation process, like what occurred in south africa i don't think you

can heal the thing that you don't acknowledge it's important. i think many americans, white americans as well as black americans, don't have a proper education about what slavery meant economically to this country as well as the disadvantages it created. we would not continue to have these debates over affirmative action admissions to colleges and universities, we would not be having these disagreements if people truly understood the impact of this original sin. >> amen to that, ma'am. thank you so much, good to see you. >> good to see you too. the house party weekend for beto o'rourke, what he told voters in iowa this morning, next. with fidelity wealth management you get straightforward advice,

told. i expect that he's going to focus on something that he talked about in his announcement, this idea of something that we heard from sherrod brown a lot. working class voters, emphasis on unions, and in the heartland. this is the place where president trump did well in 2016 and that same election cycle, of course. he's hoping that this local brand and this ohio brand can translate outside to be a national message in this democratic field. he was ask this week on morning joe if this pretty diverse field needs another white male candidate? >> i don't think we need another white guy as president. whoever the candidate is, needs to make sure they're focusing on the issues that workers feel the main contenders are think about and sit at the zeroing in on iowa, new kitchen table and try to deal hampshire, nevada and south with their issues. carolina, those primaries are nine months away. >> i know you mentioned all of in beto o'rourke, he has six those had you candidates on the

issues near and dear to them. has broken his promises. >> special interest is you the i have to tell you, being in iowa for the last couple days, i american people. >> bull [ bleep ]. have been struck by how many >> trump's trade war is costing people have been asking the me. >> the president has put my kids candidates about climate change specifically. o'rourke linked what we've been one medical emergency away from bankruptcy. >> it's the best it's ever been. talking about at climate. the top 3% got their tax cut, but we didn't. >> those same scientists say if >> i'm struggling to keep our business afloat. >> our jobs are still going to we warm another degree celsius, mexico. the train is off the tracks. >> all trump cares about is the you will not be able to live in houston, texas or charleston people with the jobs. south carolina any more. working people have to fight you may not be able to live in el paso texas, it may not back. sustained human life. >> people say we don't build anything in the united states any more. that is not true. if you're concerned about we build it with fewer people. the manufacturing economy has done pretty well for the last apprehension several years, i think it's apprehensions with mexico. then you will have a crisis. important to emphasize that >> you hear the candidate we've seen good job trends, that linking together two of the was a continuation of what we biggest issues in the campaign saw during the last couple years of the obama administration, we cycle. have seen a nice increase in it's been a big issue here

manufacturing jobs, you pointed because of the floods that have been happening in this state out that seemed to fall back a little bit in february, and recently. we're hearing it come up again what's probably going on here is the economy is just slowing down and again this is so early in this process, april of 2019 a the job market has been terrific for the last few years and there are a lot of reasons to think chance for these candidates to lay the groundwork with these it's going to slow down. voters who expect to hear from that does not mean we're going them time and time again before to have a recession, it means that vote. >> you make a good point. the economy is going to grow a floods, farming, all big there little slower, maybe a little in des moines. slowdown in spending by they have to keep the focus on companies and a little slowdown climate change for sure. by consumers. >> there was a gm plant in ohio that shut down a few weeks ago, we'll speak with you later right near where ally was a few today. julio barr and joe biden. moments ago. is this a sign of slowing yr manufacturing overall or just a blip? >>. car insurance, so you only pay for what you need. >> there's a transformation happening in the auto industry, over to you, logo. liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ the plant just closed in tim ryan's district. he's been making a lot of noise about that. auto sales have been strong the

last few years, they think that auto sales have peeked. and what gm did in that instance, they closed a factory that made a car -- people don't buy any more, it's a subcompact that is just not a popular model gm is saying, we have to invest more in electric vehicles. there's probably going to be more of this happening in the auto industry. we could see more consolidation in if a manufacturing sector. president trump talks a lot about manufacturing, he does not talk about jobs of the future. this is advanced manufacturing you already have robots everywhere on factory floors. president trump talks about the manufacturing jobs of the past. we really need to be talking about getting people more skills so they can -- so they're ready for the jobs of the future. >> here's the bottom line question, is the president helping or hurting the working class? >> i think he's doing both, but

he's picking winners and losers. real quickly, the tariffs on import imported steel, that's helping the steel industry but hurting the auto industry. president trump is hurting working people. can you make a case for that in a lot of parts of the country opinion if you go to ohio and wisconsin, president trump's approval ratings there are way lower than when he won those states in 2016. >> yeah, well, that ad certainly affecting the rust belt for sure. a headline getting lots of attention, trump is plotting his post white house tell off memoir, who's going to read that? next. we're working together to do just that. bringing you more great tasting beverages with less sugar or no sugar at all. you're smart,eat you already knew that. smaller portion sizes, but it's also great for finding the perfect used car. you'll see what a fair price is clear calorie labels and reminders to think balance.

[bird speaking] my social is 8- 7- 5 dash okay, i see. [bird laughing] somebody thinks it's hilarious. free social security alerts from discover.

you don't learn anything about someone's wealth by their tax return. i will give my tax return, but i'm under audit. every few years they audit me. i'm under audit, from what i understand the law is 100% on my side. i'm under audit. when you're under audit you don't do it. but i'm under audit. >> the president claims he's still under audit. his legal team is taking their fight to the treasury department. the four-page letter criticized the attempt to obtain his tax

return is a gross misuse is of the law. you hear the president saying, the law is 100% on his side. somebody thinks it's hilarious. there's brushing...and there's oral-b power brushing. oral-b just cleans better. even my hygienist said going electric could lead to way cleaner teeth. but there's an irs code 6103. and unlike sonicare, oral-b is the first electric toothbrush brand accepted by the ada. >> i never understood the oral-b. brush like a pro. i was tired of having my calls dropped, position that because he's under and then i'd heard that i could get apple music if i switched over and i said, "boom!" audit he can't produce them. (vo) the best network is even better the reason they audit him year with apple music on us. after year after year after year plus save big when you switch. is because they come up with only on verizon. problems. they don't audit my tax returns. obviously, there's something plants capture co2. unusual or out of the ordinary about his tax returns. what if other kinds of plants captured it too? i always thought, we ought to if these industrial plants had technology say, mr. president, the fact that captured carbon like trees that they're under audit we could help lower emissions. absolutely suggests the public needs to know what's in there. carbon capture is important technology -

and experts agree. >> the white house is claiming this is a battle they are that's why we're working on ways to improve it. willing to die on. so plants... can be a little more... what does it tell you about the like plants. extent to they're trying to -- ♪ they're just trying to protect the president. >> well, the president -- the president has never wanted to turn over his tax returns. and now he's got his entire administration saying they're going to die on this hill. really? tax returns. since 1960s, every president since richard nixon has publicly released his tax returns and no there is indeed an emergency one has thought, that our on our southern border. it has been loud and clear. the crisis is a direct result of nation's security was going to crumble or anyone should die on the obstruction by democrats in any hillside to protect that. i took a look at the statute the congress and we have to do something about it. house was relying on here, it >> they don't come here. the people that are opposed, basz passed in 1924 in the wake mostly democrats, republicans of the tea pot dome scandals are for it, but mostly this is one of the big political democrats. they don't come here. scandals of the 1920s, in the >> president trump there pretty wake of that, they said, we want tough on democrats in his trip

to have the right -- we in the to calexico, california, but how house, to be able to look at the do the dems respond? tax returns of officials, so that we can see where their former speech writer, amy holmes wealth comes from that's exactly and political analyst jonathan alter and republican strategist why they want to use it today, that strikes me as pretty clear, lauren zelt. get ready there, jonathan, you are outnumbered here today. pretty direct and pretty legal. anyway, amy, one of my >> it seems like the decision as colleagues here at msnbc said to whether or not trump's tax there is a crisis at the border returns will be released is up but the president's policies to steve mnuchin. make it worse. what roel does his rhetoric, if he does not, can he be held in contempt of court. if this thing goes all the way shutting down the border and he to the supreme court, which way is not kidding around here, how does it go? >> the statute is very clear, does that play out in manufacturing a crisis? the commissioner of the irs >> well at least we are all at a shall you produce, not may, not consensus there is a crisis. under certain circumstances, shall produce. 100,000 people across the border the house could enforce their illegal, of people coming here request with a request for illegally but i'm concerned contempt of congress for failure to produce the records, and that there is a stampede effect and the "wall street journal" was reported that people in the can come with certain northern triangle, el salvador, enforcement mechanisms,

including putting people in jail until they produce the tax guatemala and -- going on, they returns as requested by hear this rhetoric and they congress. now, why does the president say think they need to get in while we're going to take this all the the getting is good and so i way to the supreme court? i think the president feels think -- unfortunately there has after naming two very been a bit of a magnet effect, a conservative members to this stampede effect by this rhetoric but at the end of the day, we supreme court that it is now his need solutions on the border and supreme court and he can count in a normal world, border on them to give him the answers security would be a bipartisan that he wants. issue. i don't think that's the kind of >> and you mean el salvador and country we want to live in, where a president feels secure that two of the three branches, guatemala and honduras. >> do you agree with cutting off one being the supreme court is funding. always going to rule his way. >> i don't agree with cutting it's not what the founders had off what is working and we need in mind. >> thanks for weighing, in much to see what works and what appreciate it. the big decision for stacey doesn't. and mick mulvaney last sunday abrams, why is she putting it said we are sending this money off until the fall? and clearly it is not working yes. because all of the people are leaving so we need a serious rye view of what are the solutions and how can we have carrots and sticks for those countries to be able to serve their citizens much better than they are now. >> what do you think, jonathan, the democrats assertion that

they do not go to the border and, b., are to blame for what is going on down there. >> they're preposterous like so much of what comes out of his mouth. they've gone to the border many times, the democrats. let's talk about the rhetoric first. he said something yesterday that was truly shameful and compared it's way day! it's wayfair's biggest sale of the year, people going to the border as and you're invited! starting april 10, animals. anybody who studied any history score our lowest prices since black friday knows that when you start on best-selling furniture, decor, and way more. calling people animals, when you dehumanize them that way, that plus, everything ships free on way day. is when the killing begins. everything? everything. and flash deals launch all day long. that is the unmistakable lesson hey guys, check out the flash deal i just scored! of history. when you dehumanize people. our biggest sale of the year only lasts 36 hours really bad things start so shop way day starting april 10 at wayfair.com. happening. so we've got to speak out against this kind of rhetoric. democrats need to do that. and they also have to offer some positive solutions. one of them is continued aid to the central american countries. this is what the obama administration did and it tamp down a lot of the movement north. because they are fleeing

horrible violence in their own countries and there are programs that are -- have actually worked to stabilize their economies, so it's completely counter productive for the presidecut o >> lauren, the president said that mexico is begun to detain thousand of central american migrants this week to establish a cause effect between the threat to close the border, again saying he wasn't kidding around last week, and now mexico's actions. but that is just not true, right? mexico has long battled this on its southern border and not doing it this week because of the president? >> certainly not. the idea to establish a collaboration between those two things is a p.r. ploy at best. these people coming from the central american countries are facing real violence and real, real terror situations for many of them. and so i think what this shows overall is that both parties need to be willing to come

together, to offer common sense solutions on immigration reform. we've been talking about this for years and years but i think this crisis highlights the need to get it done now. and we also have to address this situation for those that are already here, especially the daca population in finding a permanent solution for those individuals. >> listen, guys, this is going to be short. my last question quickly is with the president saying that he's already planning his tell-all memoir on a scale of one to ten, how interested are you in reading it? ten being the most interested. amy, you first? >> well i generally don't read these type of political books and i don't think we'll have to. there is wall to wall coverage and excerpts that we could sit back and read the newspaper. >> lauren, you? >> i agree with amy. and i hope that the president has some better things to worry about than what coming up in his memoir at the moment. >> jonathan, i think i know your answer but if you give me a different one -- >> it is a zero. >> but i thought out of

curiosity. >> well i might peek into see what scores he settles but he settles scores on twitter. he's never had an unpress -- unexpressed thought so anything he thought we'll know about and he can't keep a secret why he hates somebody. >> and we know it will be a blockbuster. >> so he said. better than "the art of the deal." appreciate you expressing your thoughts. just in time. he's making it official and in moments, tim ryan kicking off his campaign at a rally. we'll take you there when he begins speaking. i saw you on rachel maddow earlier in the week, she asked you this question about joe biden. some people were saying he joked about it, he shouldn't joke about it. i think he should joke about it, i don't think it's that big a deal. >> i think it's bull to say people can get away with laughing it off. >> hulian castro opining on his former vice president.

yesterday biden said he's very close to make a decision as to whether he's going to enter the 2020 race. joining us -- syndicated talk show host bill press rick tyler. always good to see the three of might mean a trip back to the doctor's office you. just for a shot. but why go back there let's play for you and the audience here, what joe biden when you can stay home had to say after basing the with neulasta onpro? allegations from women who say strong chemo can put you at risk of serious infection. they have encounters with him in a key study neulasta reduced the risk of infection that made him feel uncomfortable. >> i want you to know that i from 17% to 1%, a 94% decrease. have permission to hug lani. neulasta onpro is designed to deliver neulasta but it's up to -- by the way, he the day after chemo and is used by most patients today. gave me permission to touch him. neulasta is for certain cancer patients receiving strong chemotherapy. do not take neulasta if you're allergic to it >> my responsibility is to not or neupogen (filgrastim). invade the space of anyone who an incomplete dose could increase infection risk. is uncomfortable. ruptured spleen, sometimes fatal as well as serious lung problems, i'm not sorry for my intentions. allergic reactions, >> he was in front of a friendly kidney injuries and capillary leak syndrome have occurred. audience, he was using laughter

report abdominal or shoulder tip pain, trouble breathing as bill mahre was suggesting he or allergic reactions to your doctor right away. do using humor to deal with in patients with sickle cell disorders, this. do you think he did a good job serious, sometimes fatal crises can occur. here? the most common side effect is bone and muscle ache. is the apology good enough? or do you think he bungled, big if you'd rather be home, picture what do you think? ask your doctor about neulasta onpro. >> the statements he put out were good. pay no more than $5 per dose with copay card. the second statement was very good, when he said, i will listen respectfully, and yesterday he basically squandered a lot of the good will he gained through seemingly wanting to participate in a real and serious conversation about this issue. joking about it is not the way -- it's not the right tact, i think it's too soon, and i also think that a lot of people are criticizing those of us who are saying, this should be a real conversation. no one is saying harassment or assault happened here. no one said that, no feminist is saying that, what we are saying is, there's a distinction between how you treat men and

women when you feel they are people, that they're equal, they're in a professional i'm all about my bed. this setting versus being very mattress is dangerously paternalistic that's whey think comfortable. i love my leesa. is different here than in the case of harvey weinstein or donald trump. we're talking about predatory people everywhere love their leesa mattresses. and now, for an even more luxurious sleep behavior or paternalistic experience, meet the sapira behavior. mattress by leesa. sapira is a in a circumstance and context hybrid mattress combining performance foam technology with where it's not appropriate. individually wrapped pocket springs. enjoy extreme comfort, minimal motion transfer, and incredible edge support. sapira is the first true luxury hybrid you ask people for hugs. mattress. made in america and hug? somebody can say yes and open shipped to your door in a box. their arms and you have a hug. read our reviews, then order it's a very simple thing. online. when your new sapira women being made to feel uncomfortable is a thing that mattress arrives, try it for 100 happens all the time. nights and love it or get a full the me too era, has given us the refund. order your own sapira space to say, hey, hold up, i luxury hybrid mattress right now don't like that. to get big savings. order now and we're all listening to women. and get 15% off your mattress - >> maybe he should do the nancy and free shipping too. just go to buyleesa.com today. you need

pelosi approach, the straight arm club. this bed. biden has said he wants to be the last one to announce he's i'm alex witt and i'm late running for president. >> we're told it would come. handing this show off to kendis gibson. you have 35 seconds. i'm sorry. >> 40 seconds. he was asked about the >> i'm done. >> busy afternoon ahead. orientation of the democratic party. >> the vast majority of the members of the democratic party are still basically. liberal moderate democrats in the traditional sense. i'm an obama/biden democrat. and i'm proud of it. >> you get the sense he's trying to aswathe any of the fears of the democratic party, it's moving too far left, will that position make it harder for him to appeal to voters who want progressive policies? >> is that coming to me? >> yes. sorry. >> no doubt about it. joe biden is left of center,

he's not as far left as bernie sanders or elizabeth warren. that's the challenge of this primary. what message the democratic party thinks is the most effective message against donald trump, and who is the messenger that's best equipped to carry that message. to a large extent joe biden has a big lead, despite this bump in the road. he has a lot of advantages going, given his experience in the senate as vice president, people love him, and we'll see if this third time around he's got what it takes. >> stacey abrams spoke with msnbc this week after appearing at the national action network. she's not going to decide until the fall whether to run for president or senate.

does she have what it takes to go up against president trump for 2020? >> it's hard to know, alex. we're trying to sort out whether joe biden has what it takes to go against president trump. i believe he does. i don't know did she does. if she's thinking about running for president, she ought to get in the race quickly. you can't announce -- although you and i know her name, many people don't know her name. i like -- it's like trying to build a 747 when it's running down the runway, and it's got to get off the ground by the time you get to the end of the runway about the more she shortens that runway, there's no way that plane is going to lift off. we'll see what she does. what i like to say about joe biden is, look, i think he was a victim mostly of a political hit job, i don't think this -- joe biden ever intended to make

anyone feel uncomfortable or tried to, and is it worth discussing? sure, we've been talking about it for three days now, i saw three speeches that day, bernien sadders give a speech. bernie sanders has authored 7 bills in 27 years. if you like his agenda, you got the wrong guy, he's never going to be able to get legislation passed. i saw elizabeth warren who spoke to an african-american audience, who was telling them, your government should be raising your kids instead of offering them more opportunities, better jobs so they can afford child care for their own children. and i saw joe biden talking about what government is supposed to do. we've been neglecting our infrastructure for years and years and years. i think that was a very substantive speech. >> guys, i'm so far out of time,

but i'm glad to speak on these issues. all good points from all of you. the lengths president trump could go to keep his tax returns a secret, and it's a sign that president trump's promise to some of his most ardent supporters is not being kept. r . that's why you chose kraft natural cheese. made with fresh milk without the added hormone rbst. it's cheese as it should be.

maybe nottiest, but president trump tweets for the

first time he has the right to read the mueller report. communities are strained dependent on each other. telling all and settling scores, the report about the president's plan to write a post white house memoir. good day to all of you. welcome to weekends with alex witt. happening this hour, the administration has closed a cargo lane on a bridge in el agents from this port of entry. the president yesterday took his immigration battle to california after backing off from his threat to close all paths between the u.s. and mexico. with protesters condemning the president, he sent this message to immigrants and asylum seekers. >> the system is full. can't take you any more. whether it's asylum, whether

it's anything you want, illegal immigration, can't take you any more. we can't take you. our country is full. our area is full. the sector is full. turn around, that's the way it is. >> the house in 20 states, now suing the president over his emergency declaration. solving conditions of migrants and asylum seekers in el paso texas. >> asylum seekers are being turned away at the ports of entry. >> i have been to a refugee facility in jordan and i tell you there are things i saw here in the united states of america that were worse than what i saw in georgia. >> what we're doing to these people is the most unamerican thing i've ever seen. >> at the same time, the legal battle is escalating. the president's lawyer telling the irs, house democrats have no

legitimate legislative reason to request the president's tax returns and it's a political attack. the chair of the weighs and means committee gave the irs until wednesday to release six years of the president's personal and business tax returns. the president's response? >> i got elected. they elected me, now they keep . when you're under audit, you don't they're
