little that can be changed here. >> but this -- there is a change in that we have an american student, an american citizeno is dead. we've had 15 -- i think 15, a dozen or 15 imprisoned. there are still three in prison now who are there now, american citizens, who are still there. but this changes the game. this is someone who was a healthy young man who went to this country, spent months and months maybe in a coma there. and has passed away. that takes it to a new level, i would think. i'll be interested to see how the white house responds. meantime, we've got this health care fight going on behind closed doors in the senate. we know the house had pretty stringent rules and expectations for what they wanted, demands. you know, they wanted to end federal funding for new states to expand medicaid. they wanted to get rid of those essential health benefits. they had a long list of things that were important for the house. now the senate behind closed doors is trying to craft legislation that if it doesn't contain all of these may not pass the house. where are we in terms of an impasse between trying to put t

religious liberty and free speech and the second amendment and the fundamental liberty of theg an american citizencourse is at these center of almost all those issues. a very highe is likelihood we will see another supreme court vacancy either this summer or next summer. happens, it is critical once again that the president nominate a principled constitutionalist and the republicans in the senate do our job and confirm that constitutionalist to the court. [applause] sen. cruz: the second big priority for 2017 is revealing -- repealing obamacare. obamacare is a disaster. it is a train wreck. it is collapsing before our very eyes. it is the biggest job killer in this country. lostons of americans have their jobs because of it. i been forced into part-time work because of it. have lost their doctors. plus there helped insurance. i've seen premiums skyrocket. i think it is absolutely critical we deliver on that promise to repeal obamacare and i think it is also critical that we do it right. we do it in a way that provides real relief for the single mom who is struggling, who has seen her premiums skyr

is quite an expert in this area, that basically there has to be a severe cause for harming an american citizen. so what is president trump going to do? today at the white house, lots of discussion about the fact that trump said he was willing to meet with kim jong un. people were saying if he still willing to meet with this man, in the words of john mccain, murdered an american citizen? that's the question. it was not a complete answer. it wasn't ruled out. the question is, what is he willing to do. i'll tell you what he was willing to do today, he was trying to slander president obama, if this kid had come earlier, all within -- >> not a slander. >> it is a slander. what happened, ten americans were released from north rio during president obama's tenure. >> but that is such a political blasphemy against the president of the united states. to say that president obama -- >> i didn't say -- >> i thought he was rude and clearly the father is an emotional distress. >> he has every right to say that. >> but it's not true, and it's clear that president obama -- and i think every administratio admin

otto warmbier, an american citizen was murdered by the kim jong-un regime. the final year of his life, he lived the night where in which the north korean people have been trapped for 70 years. forced labor, masturbation, systematic cruelty, torture, and murder. >> we could bring this regime down with chinese cooperation, we need to convince china it's in their interest to end the north korean regime and the nuclear threat that it poses across east asia. the >> president trump appeared visibly moved by the death of warmbier, following a one hour trial on convictions of subversion. he was returned to the united states in a comatose state. one diplomatic recourse that could potentially be pursued was hinted at in congressional testimony by the secretary of state last week after news of warmbier's release. >> evaluating whether we should put some type of travel visa restriction on north korea, we have not come to a final conclusion, but we are considering it. >> we will be hearing from the secretary of state shortly when he meets the four news cameras with the p

i extend my condolence to those unfortunate people in england, but being an american citizen, i have not heard anything from the trump administration republican party about the act carried out by the hate group that support donald trump a couple weeks ago, when those two young ladies on the us and a couple people lost their lives for that. in the a lot of problems united states, and i didn't hear anything to condemn those terrible acts. donald trump, all he does is divide us and create tapes. we need to start looking at actions at home. thank you for taking my call. host: vice president mike pence with this tweet -- our thoughts and prayers are with the victims, the first responders and all the people of london. president trump said -- we are with you. byron is joining us from tennessee. good morning. caller: good morning. air.re on the wondering, how come they don't have this problem in china, north korea, they do not have this problem with islamic radicals, why is that? host: we will go on to kevin from london, england, watching us on the bbc channel, terror strikes the london brid

you get a piece of intelligence that an american citizen is interfering by having secret conversations with the russians that discuss sanctions and you think it's worth investigating why the national security adviser wants to know which american citizen is doing that? that's a freak show not a political side show. >> the next step is james comey will testify in front of the senate. we have sources that have told cnn he plans to say publicly that, yes, president trump did pressure him to back off the in from flynn investigation. where would that leave us? >> i think a couple of things. number one he would be making that statement under oath so it gives it a different patina as opposed to what people close to him say. that video of that testimony could be very striking number one. number two, it is almost guaranteed and i know we're not in the prediction business but i don't feel i'm going out on a limb. you'll see potentially a very active president trump twitter feed in response to that. it will be like waving a red flag in front of a bull. that's a night mayor scenario for the preside

otto warmbier, an american citizen, was murdered by the kim jong-un regime." >> high-level talks between the u.s. and china begin tomorrow in washington. there's growing pressure on president trump to take a harder line with beijing to help rein in north korea. listen to the president's reaction to warmbier's death. >> otto warmbier has just passed away. he spent a year in north korea. a lot of bad things happened, but at least we got him home to be with his parents where they were so happy to see him even though he was in very tough condition. he passed away a little while ago. that's a brutal regime, and we'll be able to handle it. >> what does the president mean by "handle it"? we'll go live to seoul and paula hancocks. good morning to you. what options does the united states really have here? >> reporter: pretty much the options the u.s. has always had, and not great options. the option of sanctions, putting more pressure on north korea. for that the united states needs china, of course it's going to be crucial at that meeting in washington with the u.s. secretary of state tillerson,

otto warmbier, an american citizen, was murdered by the kim jong-un >> well, i think they are thinkingight now, wolf. there are a range of options they could take. it's paramount that they think about this is proportionality. remember, we have three americans being detained there. you want to be ever mindful of their faces as you make the decisions. certainly there's diplomatic options. you could enact more or more aggressive sanctions unilaterally by the united states. you could do something more to beef up your military response. this is unacceptable. i agree with senator mccain, this is murder. that's exactly how it should be phrased. >> you've been talking to a lot of officials, jim. north koreans have like a million-man army north of the dmz facing 15, 20 million citizens 20 miles below in seoul. >> there are options. the trouble is, you don't know which are going to work. they are not great options. previous administrations, republican and democrats in the same situations have tried the same negotiations. they've sent bill clinton, bill richardson, the assumption being that that

saying, quote, otto warmbier, an american citizen, was murdered by the kick jong-un regime.'s true, how will the u.s. respond? let's bring in cnn national security knowledge annist and former director of cia and nsa general michael hayden. general, thank you for being with us. >> good morning. >> the premise here needs some definition. you've had people held in countries by different despots before. but if otto warmbier's death is judged a homicide caused by the actions of one man, that would be foot squarely at the feet of north korea. does that change the analysis? >> it gives us an additional tool we might want to use in order to put additional pressure on the north korean regime. recall, chris, we did indict members of the people's liberation army for cyberattacks against the united states. now, that had no practical effect. but the symbolic effect i thought was quite clear and strong. we might want to put this particular action on the part of the north korean regime in the law enforcement track as just an additional tool we have to up the pressure on the north koreans.

collection under section 702 when you have a lawful 702 order but someone does communicate with an american citizen, it's my understanding that it would be virtually impossible to doe so in a way that wouldn't further infringe on the rights of american citizens. is that correct? >> yes, and that's one of the central reasons why i came to the conclusion, but the main reason i came to the conclusion is that just is not conceivably possible. we could go through the procedures, we could shift hundreds of people to go over and breach the rights of 00 reds if not thousands of american citizens to determine of individuals to determine whether or not they are american citizens or not. but we still, having done that, could not get to an accurate number, the number that senator wyden was trying to get us to. my pledge to him is i would go out there, try to fully understand why it was we couldn't get that. they'll be detailed discussions on that and the closed session with the staff and the technicians from both nsa and from senate staff here and others relative to all of these that have been made to try to a

as an american citizen i think we'd all want the president and his aids to have press briefings, this is america. >> i would say one thing though, the buck stops here. as much as we have anger directed at those who work for him and oftentimes it's legitimate, the limine line is it's the president's fault. everything as abbey said is being directed by him. >> abbey, let's talk about the georgia six congressional school district district. the most expensive house rate ever. things are getting ugly. john ossoff versus karen handel. what do you think will happen when the polling open in the morning? >> it's a special election, it's an offyear, the chances we'll be looking at razor thin margins giving what the polls look like are pretty darn high. what i think has been surprising and fascinating about this election is in the last 48 to 72 hours, a degree to which outside groups have been pouring money in with ads. >> it's -- >> yeah it's been very interesting how these ads have took a turn to the left. some innuendo about the attack on republican congressman last week suggesting that john

to travel if a member of your family is dying, to provide an organ donation to a member of an american citizen who is in the united states. that is not a crime and you don't need an affirmative defense because it's not a crime. it nk the fact that eliminates an important constitutional provision is problematic. we all know we can't change the constitution by statute. the case of u.s. versus mendoza-lopez basically says this. if you are going to prosecute somebody for entry after removal, which happens all the time. in fact, that is the single, most prevalent federal prosecution in the system today. that's number one, you have to -- and you did not have an opportunity actually to test the first removal, because, for example, you were never notified of the hearing -- if i could have an additional minute. mr. conyers: one more minute. ms. lofgren: since that is an element of the offense, the mendoza case is you have to be able to at least col recall attack that because you never had a chance to do so initially. this eliminates that constitutional case. you can't do that by statute. the point i'm

suspicion that it happened just before the north koreans realised that there was a possibility of an american citizen something which would present them with a lot more difficulty than they've already got. that is simply me surmising. what seems pretty clear is that the north korean accounts cannot be taken at face value. it is a miserable business. steve, are there likely to be wider implications, political consequences? i think there must be. otto warmbier‘s family has been very prominent and dignified in the us media, presenting a very human face to a tragedy. in other words, it is a human face to big political event and that must raise the pressure on president trump. he has already got this item right at the top of his agenda because of the possibility of another nuclear test by north korea, a missile launch. his resolve that north korea will not get the ability to strike the united states so the issue is a ready right up there and what this does is it puts a human face on the downside of that regime. but when you get a father with this kind of grief on your tv screens, in prime time, it really

he is not really someone who should be given the constitutional rights of an american citizen, right?ammed, given that, at any point, he could have simply said "i will tell you and stop the attack". you know, one of the criticisms is that there has not been a safe word. but in fact, there is a safe word, and the safe word is "i'll answer that question". mm. president donald trump, on the campaign trail, said he wanted to bring back waterboarding. what he said is "i'd bring back a hell of a lot worse than water boarding". however, he has since said that he'd go with what his secretary of defence, general mattis, and cia director mike pompeo think. would you like to see waterboarding brought back? because of course, barack obama stopped the enhanced interrogation techniques in 2009. some form of legal co—operation is necessary. at the very top, people like abu zubaydah, they are not going to freely give up that information. general mattis said, and i have a lot of respect for the man, but he said gimme some beer and a pack of cigarettes and i could get more out of them. that is the rapp

it seems like north korea was worried about having an american citizen dying in one of its cells whilerd labour for what seems like a student prank and which would not merit 15 years hard labour in most countries. otto warmbier‘s family has been very public and very dignified and has pointed the finger very vigorously at the regime in pyongyang. one imagines that their plight, their situation, will resonate amongst the american public on tv. president trump has already condemned what's happened and it will probably raise the pressure on him to do something about north korea, in quotes. he's already under pressure because north korea is making obvious progress in its ability to have missiles capable of striking the us. so this will ramp the whole issue right up in the american political agenda. let's take a look at some of the day's other news. a driver has died after ramming his car into a police van in the centre of paris, in what the french authorities say was a terrorist attack. the incident took place on the champs elysees. officials say they found guns and explosives inside the ca

trump years ago began the obama was not an american citizen and questioned not only his birthright but even his parentage, i heard no big cry from the heritage foundation about how presidential or how we looked and if i'm not mistaken, there were some russian people involved in that. there was a woman involved in that investigation. host: response? wast: the real issue is there any kind of attempt at obstruction of justice? i don't know about what happened years ago, but that was not the topic of a hearing that mr. comey had last week. the topic was the russia investigation being conducted by the ei. mr. comey said that the president is not being investigated. that is the important issue involved. did the russians interfere with and whatcan election we heard from comey is that so far, they have no evidence that occurred. host: rick asking why the room was cleared by trump before he tried to sway comey. guest: i don't know the answer to that. remember, jeff sessions was recusing himself from any involvement in the russian investigation because of the fact that he was an early supporter

suspicion that it happened just before the north koreans realised that there was a possibility of an american citizenomething which would present them with a lot more difficulty than they've already got. that is simply me surmising. what seems pretty clear is that the north korean accounts cannot be taken at face value. twelve months after the united kingdom voted to leave the european union, the first formal talks to set the terms of departure have been held in brussels. the eu's chief negotiator michel barnier said he hoped the atmosphere would be constructive. the uk's brexit secretary, david davis, talked of a new and special partnership. this from our europe editor katya adler. hanging onto that handshake as hard as he could, this was david davis's show of strength today, the first day of face—to—face brexit negotiations almost 12 months since the uk voted to leave the eu. i am here in brussels today, like michel, to begin the next phase of our work, to build a new, deep and special partnership with the european union. determined to sound confident and upbeat, everyone here knew the secretary of
