judge andrew napolitano is with us. judge napolitano was a superior court judge in the state of new jersey, and very familiar with how thing goes there. first of all, the story is, this deputy chief of staff, this kelly, had been his deputy chief of staff for five years, and as the story goes, when he read those e-mails yesterday morning, he was sad and that he didn't ask her any questions about what happened, he fired her for lying to him, and that was that. >> he stated at the press conference this morning that after reading the e-mails, the evidence of her cull spalt was so overwhelming, he just fired her. >> his friend from high school was involved. a christie appointee, david wine canstein. he is out as well. law.here's questions whether help us understand what that would entail and how it would go. >> there are two potential statutes herement one is a state law of the state of new jersey, there's a federal law. basically both say the same thing and called misconduct office. abusing the power0s your office for some

on the case fox news senior judicial analysts, at judge andrew napolitano, i cannot believe this web l drugs is open and these guys a using this to buy and sell. judge napolitano: i don't think it is open any longer. a complaint, which is in the form of an affidavit sold by an fbi agent was filed friday and that request of the federal judge an arrest warrant for these two fellows who were arrested over the weekend and since have been put on bail so they have not been formally indicted yet so we don't know what the allegations are. we know what the fbi says and the fbi says that they facilitated money laundering and acquisition of drugs using bit coin. it is an old-fashioned money-laundering case, drug dealer, has a lot of cash because you buy drugs with cash and he needs to flush cash through a financial institution so he can take it out and use it legitimately and that is against the law. the other way to look at this is government doesn't like bitcoin because it is the medium of trade, a medium of wealth that the government can't control land doesn't regulate so they will do everyth

fox news's senior judicial analyst, judge andrew napolitano is asking why there is no one being brave an unconstitutional can of worms. judge, so good to have you back here. >> nice to be with you guys. ashley: good to have you here. >> here's the can of worms. ashley: i want to hear it. >> senator bernie sanders a socialist, from vermont sent a letter last week to the head of the in. sa, general keith alexander, very simple, straightforward letter, are you now or have you ever been spying on congress? and the answer was, members of congress receive the same constitutional protections as the rest of the country. ashley: we know what those are. >> which is to say none, the nsa doesn't believe it needs a search warrant to spy on anyone and it conceded it spies on everyone. that raise as profound constitutional issue. here's the issue. the nsa works for the president. under the constitution the president and congress are equals. the president can no more spy on members of congress without a search warrant issued by a judge based on suspicion about the individual member to be spied upon t

judge andrew napolitano on whether that is even legal. is it?> well in 46 states it is legal to remain silent the about the fact the you have been hacked. in other states they are a little ambiguous. general princnciples of law if u know customers have been impaired you have a duty to warn them. how is this remedyed? it is remedied in a couple ways. if michael's now or neiman marcus as you reported are the latest targets of this, guess what, they will be targets of lawsuits because the customers who have been hacked have the right to know that they have been hacked so that they can take measures to prote themselv before it is too late. there are measures in place at banks and at credit card companies but if you don't know that you have been hacked you will use your cards perhaps as cavalierly as rest of us do without any circumspect shun bit. so does neiman marcus and michael's not to pick on them but they are the latest examples. do they have a legal duty? no, do they have a mor and ethical duty to tell you you've been hacked? absolutely. they

judge andrew napolitano, a.b.iated editor of the hill and syndicated columnist charles krauthammer. charles? >> to hear representative johnson you would think that these are scare tactics which generally means being afraid or pretending to be afraid of something which isn't a problem. this is a huge problem, and bringing up target makes precisely the argument she doesn't want to make. target is in deep trouble precisely because of a security breach, and according to the experts, i mean, i'm not an expert, but i go by what they have told us who look into this, this system, which is open to everyone, millions apparently, have used it, is a gateway to irs, dhs, other agencies, and if that is not working in terms of security, then it's a disaster waiting to happen. you know, she says this is an attempt by republicans, opponents, to bring down obamacare. well, if there are problems of this magnitude, perhaps it ought to be brought down. number one, it -- it's got adverse selection. it's financially unstable. second, as

fox news senior judicial analyst andrew napolitano is here.e a former new jersey supreme -- what do they call it, superior court justice? >> about five miles from the meadowlands. >> as whacky as things are in new jersey these days, the idea that the nfl would do this, knowing what the laws are, that they would open themselves up, seems radical. >> well, the nfl appears to be doing this year what it has done in previous years. and that is, distribute the tickets to a wide variety of sources, which ultimately, each of which ultimately sells them to the public. that's their defense. now, there's never been a super bowl in new jersey. and new jersey, for better or for worse, has the most pro-consumer laws in the union. >> yep. >> and so this issue has never actually been tested in new jersey. so the question is, is the distribution of these tickets villa other distributors? some to the giants, some to the jets. some to fill in the blank. whoever the two teams are who will be playing the super bowl. they have yet to be determined. does that comply

we turn to fox news senior judicial analyst judge andrew napolitano. year what did the administration unveil with the i.r.s.? >> the stk*eupl unveiled -- the administration unveiled new rules that will continue to torment the president's opponents. these rules will transcend president obama. they will allow any president to use the i.r.s. to torment the president's opponents, to target them, to scrutinize them, to look at their tax returns, to look at the word that they speak. >> why doesn't it target the president's supporters? >> because the president has the ability under the law to use the i.r.s. as a political instrument, and it's congress's fault. as long as what this is, what president obama is doing, presidents of both parties have done it because congress has intentionally given wiggle room in the statute that creates the i.r.s. so that presidents of both parties can torment their opponents. and that's not what we have an i.r.s. for. >> what they're doing is the i.r.s. is trying to define political activities and you can only do a certain amou

judge andrew napolitano is here. you have a problem with this?anybody who believes in a natural right to be left alone, the natural right to privacy should have a problem with this. it is a very interesting step to foreigners. theoretically the constitution regulates the federal government wherever it goes but as a practical matter, the attention to its interference with the natural rights of foreigners particularly a foreign government has been lessened and the court has said that as a political issue. you don't like the president lane with foreigners elect a new president but if the president toys with americans that is an issue for us. in this particular case i can understand the argument. if the chinese military is offensively interfering with our use of the internet, why not engage in cyberwarfare against the chinese military? that is the argument of the nsa. stuart: the nsa did this, implanted the software into the chinese army computers because they were coming after us. judge napolitano: the implantations no doubt are limited to the chine

judge andrew napolitano is here.nd projecting forward and saying if these insurance companies are in some much trouble here come the bailout and i the taxpayer have got to pay and i know you don't like it. judge napolitano: you don't like it either. what about t.a.r.p.? i couldn't resist. seriously. we can't pick and choose which industries to bailout and which died on the line because then it is a fascist system. stuart: it is built into and written into the obamacare law section 1342 that if these insurance companies don't meet their financial targets, we the taxpayers step in. i am calling that a bailout. judge napolitano: it would require another vote by congress because the bailout would be automatic. congress would have to vote to send x dollars or borrow x dollars. just as it did with t.a.r.p.. avoid addressing -- stuart: stop it. the democrats in congress would vote yes. give the insurance companies billions of taxpayer dollars right before they go to any election. judge napolitano: even republicans would vot

all rise, judge andrew napolitano is here. >> google owns them.ell our bosses about you? we chuckle about it, but this continues to further it. those of us defending privacy feel like we are shoveling against the economy. this is even worse than you have gingerly introduced it because what these folks really should be concerned about if you have a product in your home is not google, but the federal government because the federal government has the ability to connect wirelessly to the computer chip inside these devices so that the nsa or the cia, whatever intelligence agency uses this wireless software can determine when you are in any room of your house. it doesn't bother you, so be it, but if you don't want the government in the house with you, don't use this. stuart: looking at you in the privacy of your own home, 24/7 matter who you are or where you are, the government has ability to look at you, that is a brother. >> he said i don't want anybody recording it. it revealed the cia has ability to connect with the microchip in dishwashers and micr

something tells me judge andrew napolitano would agree. the washington times and on foxnews.com titled the sorry state of the union. we have the judge with us now. you are taking -- ted cruz at stake are similar but they come on strong. judge napolitano: he came on strong yesterday and the attorney general came on a week because the questions ted cruz put to the attorney general are basically you know what, mr. attorney general, it is very basic. the congress writes the laws, the courts interpret the laws, the president enforces the laws. they don't do each other justice. i give you an example. the president of the united states of america last december when obamacare was failing and the rollout was a disaster and people were losing their health insurance coverage, basically said insurers keep the old policies in place for another year. that is asking them to break the law because as bad as this law is, on lawful as of january 1st yet when ted cruz offered legislation that delayed the onset of new policies and allow the old ones to stay on

we've already introduced the man, pontificating on socialism, so here he is again, judge andrew napolitanolicans? >> i think it's probable that it's spying on all members of congress. the back story is senator sanders' letter to general alexander followed an interesting back and % between senator rand paul and a republican from long island, congressman peter king. senator paul said, general clapper, general alexander's boss -- the one who rubbed his forehead and said, no, when he was asked by senator wyden if the nsa is gathering massive amounts of data about tens or hundreds of millions of americans -- senator paul said general clapper perjured himself and should go to jail for i. -- for it. congressman king says you're wrong, i don't care if they sigh on me. he doesn't care if it's perjury, because it's keeping america safe. put aside the absurdity and clownishness of that argument, it reminded the nsa that they could be prosecuted for perjury. so rather than saying, no, and lying to senator sanders, rather that be saying, yes, and telling the truth, they gave that absurd, middle of the

fox news judge andrew napolitano is here. >> this is a he said he said.it the conversation. no recording of it. look, if this is what they claim it is, it is extremely serious. it is a threat to use the power of the government to punish someone. they have a right to express an opinion on the credit worthiness . we are not a credit rating agency. a credit rating agency operates under the same protection of the first amendment as the rest of us do. as long as this was their opinion, there is no right or wrong opinion, an opinion is protected speech. secretary geithner words can be protected speech if there is a lawful interpretation for them. if by the government will look serious at this. if he meant -- it will come down on you because of what you said about the government, in the language of the streets, that is called attempted extortion. connell: if timothy geithner said anything in that conversation that was lawful or legal, then he is all right? >> if there was a lawful interpretation of what he said. i do not know if this'll ever come into a courtroo

judge andrew napolitano is -- i don't know what he is going to say. would you going to say?i. the progressive ideas of the concept that you can make poor people rich by making rich people or has been a failure throughout all of american history and british history. i didn't want to go there. you are my favorite prime minister of recent memory, margaret thatcher once said, many great 1-liners from her the problem with socialism is sooner or later you run out of other people's money. bill deblasio thinks that won't happen. he will drive the high welfare's out of the city before they let him take their wealth from them. stuart: he is dragging president obama to the left, you could argue bill deblasio occupies an import position in the democrat party. judge napolitano: i don't know people drag president obama to the left but he is one of the new left leaders of the democratic party nationally along with governor o'malley of maryland. and pull the democratic party to the left. and the democratic nomination to the left of hillary clinton. charles: in your illustrious career you sa

>> fox news senior judicial analyst, judge andrew napolitano, is with us to explain. >> the state of any other state has this. when you have a public event, a concert, athletic contest, you have to distribute 95% of the tickets to the public. now, the nfl has distributed -- you ready -- 1% of the tickets to the public, according to this complaint. if you ask the nfl what is happening, they're saying we're holding on to the tickets until we finds out who the two teams are. then we're going to give 20% of the tickets to the afc team and they'll distribute it to their fans and 20% of the tickets to the nfc teams and they'll distribute it to their fans. by the time it goes through two or three levels like that, what happens to the price? up and up. yesterday i was looking at prices, the highest price i saw for a ticket -- this is not the face value, but this is what it will cost to you get it because of the various levels of distribution. $100,000 a pop. >> oh, my goodness. >> do you think the nfl saw this coming, because the first time they've had the super bowl in new jersey and new je

joining us is fox news senior judicial analyst judge andrew napolitano. of that crossing talk? >> this seems to be getting worse and worse. the spying seems to be far more massive than we thought it was when edward snowden revealed it in june. here's the back story. last week senator bernie sanders, independent/socialist from vermont, sent a letter to general alexander who we just saw, the head of the n.s.a., saying just answer this simple question for me, general. does the n.s.a. or does the n.s.a. not spy on congress? has the n.s.a. spied or is the n.s.a. currently spying on members of congress or other american elected officials? spying would include -- and then he, gathering meta data made on calls, website or collecting any data from a party? answer was members of congress have the same constitutional protections as members of the public. >> are we supposed to feel better about that? >> no. members of congress don't feel better it because that sort of nonanswer was basically saying you're in the same category as everybody else and if we want to spy o

here to weigh in on their fight for faith is fox news senior judicial analyst judge andrew napolitanot. obamacare, the 2,# 700 page statute with another 15,000 pages of regulations, has a lot of requirements it imposes on people and institutions. and if an institution employs 50 or more people, it has to provide those people with health care that afford, that offers sterilization, contraception and abortion. a group of nuns, the little sisters of the poor, who have taken vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, have said we don't believe in this. the catholic church doesn't permit us to believe in it. it doesn't permit us to spend our money on it. give us an exemption. the president gave an exemption to labor unions. the president gave an exemption to certain corporations. the president delayed the onset on difficult to comply with regulations for his political pals. he is resisting mightily these nuns. why? >> yeah why? it is very clear they don't believe in abortion, don't believe in contraception. >> they condemn it and the church condemns it. spoeuf -- >> i've heard a story that t
