of immigrants. instead, the justice has ruled an appeals court should hear the case first. now, the trump administration tried to skip the ninth circuit of appeals and go directly to the scattered showers in its bid to start ending daca protections next month. speaking yesterday, president trump discussed the decision and the fact that the case would go back to the liberal leaning ninth circuit court. >> daca is going to be put back into the 9th circuit. you know, we tried to get it moved quickly because we would like to help daca. i think everybody in this room wants to help with daca. but the supreme court ruled it has to go through the normal chain chann channel, so it's going back in. >>> it's really sad when every single case filed against us is in the ninth circuit. we lose, we lose, we lose. but what does that tell you about our court system? it's a very sad thing. so daca is going back, and we'll see what happens there. >>> the decision by the supreme court now gives congress a reprieve on daca. any legislative deadline would likely fall after the midterm elections so the courts have time to finish hearing the case and any que

of john's guilt that the reward issue would not have made a difference. >> michael and gordon appealed the decision to the u.s. district court, the fifth circuitrt of appeals and finally the u.s. supreme court. they all denied the appeal. >> matters became desperate. now we had no more appeals or challenges. on april 19th of 1999, the final death warrant was issued. we had struck out. we had failed. and he was going to die. >> the state set an execution date. >> we drove over to angola. john came into the room. we didn't tell him we were coming, but he knew why we were there. and he looked at us and said, what's the date? we looked aim him and said, john, it's may 20th, which was basically a month off. >> i'd been around death row at that time long enough to understand what was going on. i was like, wow, it's my turn, it's my time. so i was trying to be strong. i was trying to, like, understand what's getting ready to happen. i'm getting ready to die for a crime i did not commit, anxiety kicked in. i didn't know how else to accept the reality that they're getting ready to kill me. >> and then john did a really remarkable thing. he said, my you

court, how long would it take? would it go into the 2018 campaigns? >> boy, you're talking about three levels of appeals. it would go to a district court, the dc circuitpeals, and then the united states supreme court. it's hard for me to imagine that could get done in less than three or four months. >> those are the two equities, right? you don't want to put him under oath, but you also don't want to drag it out. they're hoping for this to end as quickly as possible. it's not inconceivable the obstruction phase could be over in the summer maybe, but if you have this big legal fight over whether you're going to talk or not t stretches it out. >> the fact they want to talk to the president does indicate they're at the end of some aspect of it because you wouldn't bring the president in -- >> that's right. >> -- early on in an investigation. >> that's right. remember also that mueller is subject to the department of justice rules and guidelines which explicitly say that you do not issue subpoenas and do overt investigative acts within three months, 90 days of an election. >> james comey, he should have read that before he destroyed hillary clinton's camp
