robert bork's speaking to us there from iowa city an ex-president french protected thanks for being withus on al-jazeera. while we have breaking news right now president donald trump has vetoed a resolution by congress calling for an end to u.s. involvement in the saudi led war in yemen while rozlyn jordan is following the story for us and she joins us now live from washington d.c. rose was are we hearing from the white house. well the president has issued this veto message which was e-mailed to reporters in the last ten minutes and he is saying that he is vetoing senate joint resolution number seven this is a resolution which both senators and representatives voted on saying that they don't want the u.s. to give any support to the saudi let coalition as it tries to support the yemeni president mr hadi as he tries to regain control of his country yemen that country has been locked in a very devastating civil war for the past four years there's also been a massive humanitarian crisis the animosity on capitol hill to u.s. military support for the saudi coalition basically stems on two poin

earlier i spoke to robert bork who's a professor of art history at the university of iowa where he'swritten extensively on french gothic architecture he says rebuilding the not true don will be extensive and needs to be done judiciously. first we're going to have to understand what has happened to the building examining it carefully understanding what the fabric is like right now and then we're going to have to have a discussion about how exactly they're going to try to put it back together whether they're going to try to use modern materials in some places where they're going to insist upon reproducing things as they were immediately before the fire. i believe it should be done very carefully and very conscientiously there are a lot of decisions that will have to be made before they even start to do this work i think that mr mccraw is very right to try to say we should do this and have it done expeditiously but it shouldn't be done hastily that spire that collapsed actually dates from the nineteenth century it was the work of beauty of the duke the great restorer who helped to conso

robert bork, who also was a nominee at one point in his life, he went on the air after she was nominatednd said something like she is a nightmare in every way. he meant it from the point of view, not that she was a woman, not that she had not had an extensive background in constitutional law, but they cannot trust her ideology. that is what is at stake. we know from the polls from 2016 that many people who voted for 2016 did it because scalia's seat was vacant and they put a lot of stock for a republican to name the individual. brian: how much anger was there behind-the-scenes over obamacare? -- over the obamacare decision? joan: a lot. brian: can you explain that. joan: i knew half the story at the time. i did not know the whole story. i knew how angry justice scalia was. i knew how angry some of the other conservatives were. chief justice john roberts switched his vote twice and gave mixed signals. they felt betrayed. then he felt betrayed because some things were leaking out. the liberals were baffled. two of the liberal justices switch their votes on the medicaid part. so much of the

says no and the deputy says now and then this yale scholar who happens to be solicitor general robert bork who by the way i interviewed for the nixon library, he didn't want to do it either. but he felt the president had the authority under article two to do it. and he fired archibald cox. and that raised the question of president nixon's legitimacy. not just for part of it. and i think that's the key part of the story that interested me. because you know, we've got a lot writing about nixon. and when jeff asked us to do this book together, the story i wanted to understand, because of the current political moment we live in, is was everybody partisan in 1974? why was it that republicans voted against this? and that, and that's the story. that's what interests me because we all have to wonder sometimes, can we be bipartisan let alone nonpartisan? the nixon story is phenomenally interesting because nixon pushed republicans over the edge. by his misconduct. >> questions as to whether a sitting president could be indicted for obstruction of justice. has that question been resolved? >> well, i'

i once asked judge bork at a conference what he thought about the 60 vote business and i said isn't this a little bit on constitutional? it's not constitutional without requiring 60 votes. they were. clear when they wanted to have a supermajority. treaties and impeachments in the senate and for amendments and constitutions they could clearly put the senate they wanted that they didn't. he said after all it doesn't take more than 51 votes to pass anything out of the senate. it's just 60 votes is required to get to the point where you can pass it. i suppose it's true but that process worked fairly recently when not everybody all the time decided that they were going to make a federal case out of this. that is has all changed. it changed substantially again in the 1970s when it seems to me so many things are wrong in our system. again i want to stay out of the details but the democratic leader mike mansfield change the way the filibusters work. it used to be you had to stand there and talk if you were to filibuster something. became much more a gentleman's filibuster where minority leaders,

brian: he has gotten a lot of bork's attention he would get. beto o'rourke hasn't budged. well-written speech and well-delivered. what he is missing the point is make america great again is not let's go back. it's we are going to give attention to blue collar workers and farmers. doesn't mean we want to go back to a different day before there was cable division. it means that hey, you guys have been ignored with these free trade agreements. you have been ignored because manufacturing has been destroyed. you have been ignored because blue collar workers went getting attention. took the democratic block in all these states that delivered that unfathomable victory. by going back to looking to yesteryear he is missing. jedediah: speaks beautifully, very nuanced people need to look beyond that and look at the policy he supports. maybe is he a little more moderate. he is a medicare for all, paris climate agreement. green new deal guy. he just raises that in a way that's much more palatable, be careful i know somebody else who did that and his name was president barack obama. bri
