we've got some who is a yemeni analyst visiting fellow at georgetown university nice to have you with us what do you make of what the saudis have said is it's certainly not an apology it is an admission it would seem it could be a beginning of an apology you could make two things out of what they say and claiming that this is in fact a mistake one that potentially they could change their ways and now start claiming accidents which is a really good stuff because it's the first step to issuing reparations to families of those who were hurt in this incident and then it's also a way to hold them accountable for their actions now another way to look at this and it would be a much cynical way of looking at it it's to say that the international pressure surrounding this specific incident specifically from the united states was really heavy that the saudi arabians had to come out and say that this is in fact their mistakes now are hoping that in fact this is the former specially that now they will go to geneva and participate in the talks starting september third that's what i was going to sa

iftikhar is a human rights lawyer and senior fellow at georgetown university he says the announcement reflects on tom's immigration policies of the twenty five point four million refugees in this year most. research organizations think that about seventy percent of them are muslims and you know don't have somebody who has campaigned and legislated that the muslim travel down to secretary of state might. one suggest that almost certain areas them so i'm certainly not surprised at all that. resettlement numbers for the united states congress in the year ninety eight passed the refugee. limit of two hundred thousand refugees which were of which were allowed annually now during the obama administration that number was about a hundred ten thousand so his recent statement that they're going to lower the refugee settler numbers to thirty thousand is literally an e-file percent decrease from the original numbers that congress and you had and it's only the united states we americans can no longer claim any sort of what i would not want to manage your increased use anywhere on the. on the u.s.

john is joining us, silver spring, maryland, democrats line with heidi li feldman of georgetown university school of law. >> i'd alike to ask the professor. i think this 25th amendment is based on politics. i think that most of the democrats, they're not happy the way the presidency's operating and my understanding -- i might not be a lawyer or anything -- but my understanding is to know the president cannot do his job, first of all, if people around him have to let the congress know about it, whether both parties, that the president cannot operate because based on whatever they prove. but i think that this 25th amendment is really democrats, they start about a year ago, just because they disagree with him, but i really believe that it's a talk of that -- that doesn't go anywhere. it's just a 21st amendment is high bar to reach to prove the president is incapable of doing his job, and i don't know how the democrats do have that burden of their side, and so the only thing i can say right now is, donald trump, you might not like what he's doing, but the only people who can come up and prove

professor of law at georgetown university. i will testify about judge kavanaugh's views on administrative law. they're somewhat different from the views we've just heard. administrative agencies are at the heart of administrative law. these agencies are the institutions you know by their initials, the epa, the fd a a, the ftc, the fcc and so on. they are the institutions that do to to day to day work of government. staffed by experts, created and set in motion by congress and subject to requirements of public input and reason-giving. administrative agencies combine expertise, politics and deliberation in a way other institutions do not. they're responsible for everything through adjusting air pollution to enforcing rules against financial fraud. they're essential to the daily business of government. judge kavanaugh would limit the ability of congress to structure and empower administrative agencies to do this important work. he would eliminate congress' power to provide agencies with some measure of independence from the presi
