ayman is going to be joining us in just a moment here. we begin with what appears to be another instance of quid pro quo by the president. the same issue that got him impeached in the first place. before meeting with new york governor andrew cuomo yesterday president trump put out a tweet that appeared to link his administration's decision to freeze new york's access to the trusted traveler program with the demand that the state drop a myriad of lawsuits against him. he wrote i'm seeing governor cuomo at the white house, he must understand that national security far exceeds politics. new york must stop all of its unnecessary lawsuits and harassment, cleaning itself out and lowering taxes. leticia james has filed a subpoena and a number of lawsuits against the trump organization. she responded to the president's tweets writing in part this, when you stop violating the rights and liberties of all new yorkers, we will stand down. until then, we have a duty and a responsibility to defend the constitution and the rule of law. by the way, i fil
