i want to focus on this judge in rhode island in particular.uld the white house, in your estimation, have you looked at the pleadings, prevail on the merits here? >> yes. i believe the white house will prevail on the merits of this case. and of the other cases that are now pending, look, laura, it's important to remember, this is entirely within the purview of the executive branch. what they're looking to do elon musk and the doge crew are going in looking for waste, fraws and abuse. look to ferret out ways we can stop this problem. it's $26 trillion in debt with no easy way out. so, the fact that they are doing. this and they are doing it within what the law allows, this is where democrats get upset. and they go running to the courts. they having lost in the court of public opinion. having lost elections. they are now going to try their hand at litigating and picking off a few liberal one of off judges here and there in order to slow the process down. make no mistake, laura. we're not going to win. the right side of this is going to prevail. t

end of rhode island all right.oining me aforementioned john yoo and assistant deputy i did and welcome back to the show. i heard you commenting on my commenting and i just couldn't resist because i think i got it right. i got the story right. you tell me, john yoo. >> larry, i was complimenting you for stealing the very fast ideas of me. because the way you describe it is exactly right and every american, we're going through the process of paying taxes. what do we do? we open our books, show to our accountant and musk is basically in the position of an outside president trump listen the presidential authority and showing to the government who he chooses and take a look at the books and musk doesn't have any power to stop the spending. he doesn't have any power to close departments or not. he's just making recommendations to the president and president trump and his cabinet are the ones that carry it out. a lot of americans and democratic friends are shocked to see after four years of a comatose presidency, the ener

district court judge, as this is in the district court in rhode island. >> i believe. >> specifically should have this kind of authority or does. >> have this kind of authority. >> to make these kind of blanket statements about federal policy nationally, and they intend to challenge or push back against any specific judge making that order. this goes back to something j.d. vance has talked about, sort of a throwback to andrew jackson historically, saying, you know, i've seen justice marshall's. i believe it's justice marshall's order. now let him enforce it. they believe the courts don't have the authority or the ability to hold their feet to the fire in this case, and they are spoiling for a fight. democrats have looked at this and see a potential constitutional crisis on the horizon. but for now, i'd be very curious to see, and we have no reaction yet. i should be clear from the trump white house, given that this news has just broken in the last few minutes, how far they want to take this challenge, either up the ladder with the courts, or by simply continuing to not comply? >> well

this is a federal judge in rhode island ordering the trump add to unfreeze funds. he previously order the same but is telling the and mr. risch in his order was not followed. these are funds for nih and other agencies, but notable that it's nih. what does this say about where this is all going? >> sandra, this is another example of the courts trying to get to the middle of a fight between the president and congress. that is where the battle should rest. president trump is trying to restore what the founders had in mind, what alexander hamilton called the energetic executive. maybe, we've had four years of a comatose president, so people are not used to seeing what an energetic executive is like. one of the areas that the president has more discretion, leeway that his critics think, and these judges think, is in spending. there's nothing wrong with the president saying "i want to freeze spending now that i have come into office and see what's going on, see whether we should continue spending money on a versus b. congress can't, for example, force the president to sp

we will stay within these navigational beacons." >> this judge in rhode island. i guess the spirit of his order was that you can't freeze all funds while you look for waste. if you look for ways, you find it, then you can freeze those funds. one other court challenge trump is facing is that a judge is now seemingly blocking some detainees from being sent to guantanamo bay. is three venezuelans, and this judge said "the uncertainty that the government has created surrounding the availability of legal process and counsel access at gitmo is enough -- the injunction." these venezuelan detainees have not been told they're going to guantanamo: they just believe that they fit the profile that some of the other people that have been a detention along with them have been sent so they figure they are next. i am just trying to wrap my head araround the idea that a judge s saying "we will block you from sending people that you haven't said you were going to send to gitmo." >> i think that opinion is on thin ice if there's any ice remaining. first of all, you can send people

let me thank new york and tish james and peter neronha, rhode island.ow, there's this sense that the president is flooding the zone. well, democratic aides are flooding it. back yesterday, friday, i was in federal court in boston on birthright citizenship. and then later in that day, we filed our motion to enforce on this funding freeze case. and then, of course, later we sued to stop elon musk and his tech bros. but in many ways, this funding freeze issue is the most dangerous. and you know who's feeling it the most? red states. red states are by far the greater takers of federal funding, particularly on education, for example, and law enforcement support. and you saw how quickly they rolled back that omb memo and claim to rescind that memo. it's because the phone started ringing off the hook. right. and my colleagues in red states said, wait a second. what are you doing? why is the red state? why is the head start payment portal closed? why is the medicaid payment portal closed? and the reason why this is this is so dangerous is because we've got a we

and here i point the viewers to washington's letter to the hebrew congregation of newport, rhode island. this is august 1790. i mean, to my mind, one of the most beautiful and important letters in american and this is washington and knew what he was doing. he was writing a letter to this congress just to the --, but writing a letter. he knew that it was really to all americans, for all americans, see. and it says, look, for all those of any religion who all abide by the principles of human equality, the government by consent, we can all be fellow citizens. so america is the can be a home for the jewish people. and this is the spirit of the founding and that goes for non as well. we can agree on the principles of human on natural rights and then i said before that makes us fellow citizens and we can agree on the principles of religious freedom and. i think that's the very best of america and it really is inclusive. i'm not sure. jeff? jeff, are you still there? i've lost you. perhaps i'm not me. i'm just here. forgive me for a glitching, jane, last word to you in this great discussion. w

now one just opened actually in the state of rhode island that the state government approved, and the state legislature just approved one, they are working on getting online in vermont. but that is federally against the law. in the previous administration, the justice department exercised prosecutorial discretion and chose not to prosecute. but there's no telling what will happen in this administration. so if you can't make this legal and learn the lessons of alcohol prohibition, then at least let organizations that want to help people minimize the risk of overdose death and the spread of disease like hiv and hepatitis from shared needles and that kind of thing. at least get out of the way of people who want to do that by removing the laws they don't allow that. host: dr. singer, to your point, you're talking about possible solutions. the house has passed the h.a. l.t. act last week that would personally -- permanently classified things like fentanyl into schedule one. do you think that would help at all? guest: yeah. coincidently, i have an article that went live this morning, and th
