i just think it's ironic, the didndepartment of justice, the department tasked the handing down justice at the behest of the american people is committing one of the greatest forms of injustice as far as i'm concerned by not being trans berndt the american people, not being transparent with congress. the bigger issue is a lot of people overlook the meaning of misdemeanor as pertains to garland, misdemeanor is actually a crime punishable by up to a year in prison, it's not to snuff at. this is a big deal. maria: well, it's a big deal but the doj is biden's doj. they're going to do what they want to do about it. i don't know if republicans are going to be able to change this. do you think they will affect change? >> you know, i certainly hope so. i mean, the ball is in their court. they have the ability to enforce the law. everything is in their hands at this point. i don't think you just look at this and say oh, well it's the department of justice doing its thing again. i think you have to be straight and narrow here and y need to gt to the bottom line before the white house tries to change up the store h story once

department of justice are doing. the department of justice letter does not deny that the provision authorizes the government to force a broad set of americans and american companies to assist with warrantless surveillance under section 702. in fact, the department of justice basically concedes that fact by promising that it will only apply the new authorities to certain companies on a secret list. the department of justice is in the don't worry anybody department. they're basically saying we won't ever use these sweeping authorities you're handing to us. that commitment, in my view, mr. president, is worth nothing. it's not even binding on this administration. it certainly wouldn't be binding on future administrations of the. these fisa authorities like all fisa authorities are going to get used to their maximum extent. you can bet on it. the same members of congress who are touting the supposed act of restraint from the administration are going to be the first to demand that the government do more with these authorities. now, secret promises are not law. i mean, that's just an obvious fact. and giving the government vast new power on the p

department of justice has shown there is two tiers of justice. they will protect this white house, no matter what. even at the credibility of our justice system, which has completely tanked with the americanperson saying the following, quote: the department has been on the recordly transparent with congress. the attorney general released mr. hur's report to congress and made to redactions or changes. we hope they will reconsider this unnecessary escalation. you touched on the key things that house republicans are seeking. one, the audio from joe biden's interview with special counsel hur. but, more importantly, i would argue, is the audio and the transcript from hur's interview with that ghost writer. detail for us just how important that ghost writer is for getting to the bottom of all of this. >> well, this ghost writer spent hours and hours with president biden and those conversations detailed two key things. one, biden repeatedly admitting that he had classified documents, so that is willful intent, that he read from his notebooks from his time as vice president and senator that had classified material in it. and then, thirdly, it outlines, i guess recommendation the addled mental nat

american people know it. that's why today i filed an official complaint with the department of justice office of professional responsibility on joe biden special counsel jack smith for his clear and illegal efforts of election interference. we will fight the democrats' unjust lawfare and expose this corruption whether it's in new york, atlanta, or here in washington, d.c. this is an important responsibility of over oversight. in addition to this important oversight work, legislatively, house republicans are continuing to lead on behalf of the american people. this week on the house floor we have a series of bills to protect america's public lands while ensuring the safe, reliable development of our natural resources. we are also marking the start of national small business week, the backbone and economic engine of our country. so today we're joined by two chairs, our chairman of house natural resources committee, bruce westerman, and chairman of small business committee roger williams to discuss in more detail. i am proud to turn it over to chairman williams. ms. williams: thank you very much. this is going

of the justice department. but certainly, it will get lawyers talking in london. yeah, as you say, that would be a substantial change of heart by the americansse they have seen very desperate to get hold of mr assange. yeah. and i think it's worth recapping on bear in mind this goes back more than a decade. julian assange was the founder of wikileaks. he published hundreds and thousands of pages of diplomatic cables and other documents that the americans said compromise national security and broke all sorts of laws, they say, in the united states. mr assange then went and sought refuge in the ecuadorian embassy, if you remember, in london. he was there for, i think, around seven years and eventually he came out and was arrested, and he's been in belmarsh prison in south london since then with these various legal challenges. so this has been a huge saga, and the americans have never shown any sign of letting up right through what are we now, three different administrations in trying to get him back here. and there's been debate about whether or not he'd face potentially the death penalty because, of course, of course, britain is absolutely re

of the american people. a second major area has been the revitalization of our antitrust fair market regulatory enforcement toolkit and real appreciation and credit to the partners and department of justice sitting with me as well as our partners and of the attorneys genital helping us do this where we have some old tools in fact the secretary mentioned them. they give the authority to help protect farmers, ranchers, workers all across that livestock supply chain and we are modernizing shining a spotlight on contracting practices to empower prohibiting retaliation and we've got a number of other rules coming to enhance the ability to tackle unfair practices across the sector. the third area usda and this is a huge credit to the council and executive order, we do a lot and if we have to think about how to align our program to that competition mission this includes for example we've stood up a liaison to help make sure that we can be the farmers voice within usda and across federal government at the patent office and other places to make sure the seed structure is working in ways that support competition and fairness to farmers and we've been doing more to align the consumer labeling so th

department of justice. to go after ha hamas supporters who are terrorizing jews and americans and fellow students, they use power of law, power of the state, only to persecute their enemies, not to go after criminals or drug dealers or go after felons or criminal aliens or murderers are more hamas sympathizers, power of state is used to go after joe biden's political enemy. all of this all of this is connected about the destruction of the western system of law here. larry: i don't see any effort by biden or his justice department or his fbi for example, to deal with the crimes of hate, speech, and hate crime actions. every one of these schools, should be subjected to that. discipline. there are laws on the books for many years against hate crimes, and hate streec speech for that matter, i don't see the presidents columbia, yale, nordo i can see the trustees of the schools taking act, my question is, why? these are clearly hate crimes, why are they not doing something about it. and the they, includes biden and his justice department. >> this is civil right law here. as an example, just a few days ago maybe

american people. and how is it that the i biden department of justice thn't cooperatthate with you?ut they're using every tool at their disposal to usew to the law to go after biden's bid chief opponenten. oes that how do you explain that? what does that say about the country? that's today's left.ontrol today's left controls the democrat party. s thethey use this lawfare to gt to their political opponent. but the good news is the afteican peopl e see through it. president trump's numbers continue to rise. they know the case in new york without eveners cont t braggingr fani willis in georgia. d they know jackson. it's not both his cases, whether it's miami or d.c., are ridiculous. everyone knows it. ,nowsit's he's winning in alls n seven of the toss up states.l the swing states to determine the election. he's winning in georgia, north carolinae thel, michigan, wisco nevada, arizona. and thospenn e are the states who decide decide this election. so that is the good news that i think we'r.e going to have i donald trump back in the white house because the country sees be for what it is

geniusight condemn the hateful, anti-american, anti-semitic temper tantrum now underway, sadly, at universities all across our country. now, biden's department of justice can knock downr the door of a peaceful pro-life protester. surelyof you would thinko sayi they would do something to protect americans from maskedoect amer calling for actf of terrorism, pledging allegiance to the terrorist group hamas. but it's 2024, and theaign biden campaign is desperately trying to squeeze every laste vote from the democratic party's radical base. evere frthey don't want to himf so the president, he's trying his best to just look the other way. by the way, i think obamao colu to colombia. his silence has been deafening also. ane wa the way, others nowg up cozying up to the most extreme members of his partyth, aoc, the squad leader whose members have repeatedly been accused of anti-semitism. one jewish professor at columbia university who was actually barred from campus who for his own safety,eaking is now speaking out. take a listen. aoc on this. she's an agentocs of chaos she the name aoc is the agent of chaos. and i'm just looking forward to my kids and grandkid

apologized but on the other hand, the agents involved, none of them went to jail they lied to the justice department if an ordinary american lives to a federal agent, you go to jail for five years they're walking free and that's not justice. so it's an imperfect result, but it's one i'm very proud of and i think our clients are proud of. and it was the result of a massive struggle and to defeat one of the major universities in the world, the most powerful olympic organization on the world and the fbi and cte speaks volumes about their story and their believability and the power they were able to yeah. >> to put forth as a result of their speaking, their truth? yeah. >> very powerful and impressive young women, john manly. thank you so much for your time today, coming up next the controversial weighing of the israel defense forces that the us wants to sanction. cnn is investigating some of its aggressive acts that are alleged to be human rights abuses stay with us every piece of evidence tells a story how it really happened with jesse l. >> margin sunday at nine on cnn start your day with nature me. the number one pharmacis

own behalf but there was a nonprosecution agreement that david pecker and american media signed with the department of justiceem immunity so they were able to testify and provide details of what was ongoing without speaking publicly about it and without the federal government actually telling the american public exactly word for word what david pecker actually -- >> and what did we learn from that? >> that's where we learned about the 2015 meeting that took place between michael cohen, david pecker, and the other individual from the trump campaign, and that's where we became familiar with the karen mcdougal involvement. that $150,000 payment was paid before the stormy daniels payment. and initially what is different from stormy daniels, is that karen mcdougal, american media did buy the rights to her story. and donald trump and michael cohen, they never actually reimbursed american media for that $150,000 payment. when it came to stormy daniels, american media gives michael cohen a phone call of cohen secures the $130,000 payment. donald trump agrees to reimburse him. that's the difference between throws two

from the department of justice is that they pay close attention to this in our interactions with local law enforcement. i think one of the things that we face is that when the average american law enforcement personnel sees this, they see maybe, you know, one indian community and another in between it. and they don't see necessarily the difference that there are religious differences between these 2. they may not have the context of the color style movement and the violence that it brought on. not only in india, but also in canada, where there was the terrorist attack with the bombing of the air india flight, which saw a 182 passengers. and crew all killed. so this is to us a kind of message from the top leadership to say that this issue needs to be taken seriously. and that's what our hope is that they will do. now, what are the cases of hate crimes against the american hindus that you see and why do you think they are as being properly investigated as well? you know, we make up a micro minority in this country. we make up less than 2 percent of the population and were distributed, meaning that there are certainly some areas where there might be high concentrations of him

of american media, the parent company of the "national enquirer." it was the american media ceo david pecker who told the department of justice during their investigationce any alleged affairs that donald trump had. fast forward more than a year later, that's exactly what happened. the allegation that's been laid out is that two weeks before the 2016 election, that david pecker was the one that called michael cohen to come to him about stormy daniels story. that's what ultimately compelled michael cohen to try to buy her silence. fast forward eight years, it's led to this day here in april of 2024, donald trump about to take the stand facing 43 -- 34 felony counts here that could potentially lead to prison time and making the stakes of his white house election here in november all the more higher, mika. >> we're going to have a big conversation about this with our legal panel. vaughn, if you hear something that's happened in there, even just a line or two, pop back in and up date us. joining us now, former u.s. attorney joyce vance still with us. let's bring in state attorney for palm beach county, florida, dave aronberg, msnbc legal analyst charles co

american people know it. that's why today i filed an official complaint with the department of justice office of professionalbiden's special counsel jack smith for his clear and illegal efforts of election interference. we will fight the democrats' unjust lawfare and expose this corruption whether it is in new york, atlanta or here in washington d.c. elizabeth: let's back up, you know, democrats wanted to impeach trump within months of when he sat down in the oval office. they leaked his tax returns, tried to kick him off of state ballots in states like colorado. but you just made an interesting point. let's get into this. supreme court justice clarence thomas, he raised a crucial question about the legit massey of jack smith's office at last week's hearing about former president trump's special immunity claim about whether jack smith has the authority to bring charges at all because jack smith's office is unconstitutional. he was never nominated by the president, never confirmed by the senate, never properly pinted as a federal -- appointed as a federal officer. what statute exists letting the u.s. attorney

. >>> justice department remains committed to holding all january 6th perpetrators at any level accountable under law. it was a violent attack on a fundamental tenant of americanm one administration to another. the justice department will never stop working to defend the democracy to which all americans are entitled. >> hi, again, everyone. it speaks to the sheer breadth of criminality. even as we monitor developments in one courtroom in manhattan, we're tracking another, the highest court in the land, which heard arguments that could have a kneecapping effect on the january 6th prosecutions. not just for the hundreds of rioters convicted but also for the guy who summoned the mob, assembled the mob and as liz cheney puts it, quote, lit the flame of the attack. understand that since the beginning of what has become the largest investigation in the justice department's history, described to us just now by merrick garland, federal prosecutors have again and again deployed one specific tool in their tool belts, an obstruction statute, passed in the wake of the enron scandal. in the past few years, prosecutors have effectively employed that statute to serve felony

department of justice and dhs on this particular reporting. there is a challenge at the border, right? because of the last president and because they put politics ahead of the american people, we are seeing chaos. we worked with congress to get this done, to deal with the challenges at the border. president trump got in the way. >> does president biden wish republicans in congress would help him make a law that made it easier to deport people? >> what the president wants to see is he wants congressional republicans to pass, to move forward with a bipartisan border security agreement. a bipartisan border security agreement. >> harris: that is an epic game of dodge ball that she plays. come on. she knows under this president the numbers are historic of illegals coming across the border. that's biden's policies. new mexico is fast becoming a new hot spot for illegal immigrant crossings. is it edging toward an epicenter? republican senator steve mccutcheon on that. let's go to mark meredith with the latest. >> good morning to you. former president trump is likely to spend a lot of time today talking about two major issues, illegal immigration and crime. two issues which

conducted over 278,000 searches of the 702 fisa database that violated the justice department's own rules and often lacked national security connections. the f.b.i. is querying americansf all political and religious affiliations. the f.b.i. is even using section 702 to target elected and appointed government officials. the f.b.i.'s abuses are well known. using the 702 database to search for information on those individuals that it perceived to be political enemies of liberal orthodoxy, seeking to infiltrate the catholic church, spying on parents of school board meetings and working with big tech to sensor americans it disagrees with. this is stassi-level abuse and it must be stopped. so my question for this body is, if catching the government violating the constitution and our civil liberties is not the time for significant reform, then when is? the proposed changes to fisa are a good first step but they don't go far enough. there are three additional amendments to assure accountability, one includes a warrant requirement to query the 702 database for americans. there is no national security exception to the fourth amendment and we must ensure that these agencies adhe
