oversight committee chair han darryl issa said he's had enough of the stonewall and is threatening to hold the epa in contempt of congress if officials fail to turn over documents. his committee requested back in november. another missing set of e-mails. two major are rulings from the supreme court today. first the supreme court ruled the start-up internet company arial must pay broadcasters to take television programs from the air waves and sells them to subscribers who watch them on smartphones and tablets. the 6-3 ruling deals a potential fatal blow to aereo that charges customers as little as $8 a month in ten cities. the supreme court issued a strong defense of privacy in the digital age. in a unanimous ruling justices said police may not generally search the cell phones of those they arrest unsless they have a search warrant. we'll be right back. >> he pomsed to transform america. some say he's using a strategy with ties to 1970s communists. best selling author paul kenger joins us next on the obama presidency. are the largest targets in the world, for every hacker, crook and nu

you have the oversight committee chairman darryl issa squaring off with the irs commissioner with thesehich republicans believe could shed light on the allegations that the irs targeted conservative groups during the last two elections. issa wants to know if the white house got an early heads up that the e-mails were missing. take a look. >> did you cause someone to find out at the white house at treasury or your ig. >> i did not. if you have any evidence of that i'd be happy to see it. >> i asked a question. >> and i answered it. >> you did not cause anyone to find out. >> i absolutely didn't. >> the hearings continue today with the national arcive and white house counsel office. so some grilling last night. how is today going, athena. >> hi, brooke. well, today we saw a continued focus on who knew what at the white house and what did they do with that information? members of congress -- remember members of congress in this committee were hoping to get those answers from jennifer o'connor who was a lawyer in the council office. who got that information, the chief of staff, the presiden

. >> there is a lot of bad blood, add least appears to be between elijah cummings and darryl issa. i expect there will be fireworks on that tonight as we dip. in let me ask you this. on june 13th. that's when the irs notified capitol hill that the emails were missing. in february, if my memory serves me correct, the commissioner testified that it would take two years to get those emails. when did he learn? is that going to be a question? when did he learn that they were actually missing? before february or after february? >> he said he learned after february, if my memory serves. i believe he said he learned in march, maybe april and then told the treasury department, also told the white house in april and so that was one of the points that made the house ways and means committee furious on friday. okay, you told the white house in april, why didn't you tell the committees investigating this back in april you waited two months. and dumped it late on a friday afternoon, greta. >> and when was this hearing today arranged? because this is unusual. this is a late night hearing and, of

lois lerner's attorney and darryl issa squaring off over the weekend over the thousands of missing e-mails. her lawyer challenging claims that lerner lied about a crash and chairman issa isn't buying it. >> it has been shown by e-mails -- attorney trying to get his client off the hook after flubbing the taking of the fifth will say and do a lot of things. but we know the person said the irs failed to properly keep documents. >> steve hays is here. good to have you. >> good morning. >> william taylor the third is his lawyers and he was on cnn over the weekend. here is what he said: >> there was no pretense this would be a fair process. from the beginning the republican majority has screamed without any evidence about things that she did and made it clear that -- >> even if it isn't clear. >> the only purpose was to vilify her. >> littered in his statement is things that raise questions >> he is her lawyer and his job is to defend her and make her look good in court or before congress or in this case the court of public opinion. it is clear that lois lerner has done things that question her

let's drop in with darryl issa. >> lois lerner in may of 2013? may 30th. >> they hired you once we said we wanted documents, correct? yes or no? were you hired? >> i will not a hostile witness. >> you were hired in may. in june when we were not getting delivery we went to subpoena. in august you were there? >> i was there. >> in august of 2013 we requested all of lois lerner's e-mails and not a selection or group. are you aware of that? >> yes. >> and what did you do to determine the window of all at that time in august of 2013? >> can i explain the process? >> my time is expired so i ask you be full and complete in what you did from august until the time you left to secure all of the documents. >> i think background is helpful. when i arrived on may 30th, the irs had a team that was already in place collecting materials and beginning to respond to the congressional investigations. i joined at the request to be a counselor and perform a number of different things, a piece of which was helping to respond to the four different congressnal committee

the question is and i think this is what you saw today from darryl its gentleman. issato the white house attorneys, his assistant, jennifer egglesten saying she previously worked at the irs. did the white house know anything of these missing emails did they communicate to anybody at the justice department. was there a political conspiracy by the democrats against the republicans? she said she didn't see any such thing while she was at irs and that in terms of her time at the white house she got there when the current white house counsel got there. >> targeting of these groups is not disputed. the president apologized for it. the irs has apologized. the question that makes this interesting and the question that a special prosecutor would pursue is where does this lead? how high up does it go? it's gone from cincinnati to the irs and now it's stopped. why? people say well there's nothing that's connect this to the white house. let's go back to watergate for just a moment. the watergate scandal began because one of the burglars in the watergate building was connected to th

darryl ice sat wrong way. pointing the finger back at republicans for calling them whiners. president was outraged and vowed to get to the bottom of it. listen to issait was awful he would get to the bottom of it and then another one of those it's not a scandal just republicans. it's not just republicans. the reason 75%. three out of every four americans are outraged and don't trust the irs is because they shouldn't trust the irs. >> one of the rubs, of course is, that fox news has been one of the only mainstream media organizations actually covering this story but this week finally the "new york times" admitting so the president can't hide from this now. the "new york times" admitting they were late on this irs story. here is a quote from the "new york times" public editor. the "times" was somewhat late in beginning to cover the latest development about the lost emails. >> they just didn't cover it what's the justification for that? this is great story. leaving aside the political implications are you kidding in the irs claims they lost emails? you can't lose emails in the modern age. this is just a great story they refuse to cover it. why? because
