he is racist to keep gitmo open. now pick somebody up on the battlefield who is trying to kill americans or kill american troops, why is it racist to incarcerate them on a u.s. naval base in cuba? >> there is no justty indication. they get to the point where they have to say something to paint themselves in a corner saying we don't like gitmo. the whole original reason for that they thought they were accused of using torture, using some things that we would all agree they shouldn't be using. what has come out of gitmo is information that has saved countless american lives. right now they are down to 41 people at gitmo. it was almost 800 people in gitmo and we were able to get a lot of help in our battlefield help. we want to go back to that. >> jon: oklahoma senator james inhoff, a republican and the guy who has been to gitmo four times. we appreciate your insights this morning. thank you for coming on. >> u.s. coast guard to the rescue airlifting a woman off a crew ship. why she had to be transported right away and

>> look, this is not about gitmo. dianne feinstein, barack obama, ran the country for eight years, they had unfettered power. this is about throwing something out there, the debate republicans. right now markets are soaring and the economy is accelerating. a couple of million people have bonuses and big investments. they're fighting the tax bill and against everything working. this is just-- >> i don't think it's a winning issue though. i don't know as this, you know, the immigration debate turns into a bit of a wedge issue, i get that one, but this? i mean, gerri, the prisoners are suing us. >> the prisoners are suing us and they've been incarcerated for too long. in some cases 16 years. let's remind everybody how we got here, all right? at the end of obama's term, he put a bunch more people into guantanamo bay, and when they went to host countries they didn't work out well because they went right back back to the battlefield. from our point of view, trying to protect our own people, why would we want these folks to

tax picker about four and $50 million a year to keep gitmo open. years, despite seven active prosecutions, there've been no convictions by these military tribunals. see you on jennifer, thanks. event senator jim mattis considering a ban on personal cell phones at the pentagon. this comes after data from personal fitness training apps has shown up on the internet revealing the locations of military personnel. pentagon spokesman men's has no official decision has been made. white house white house chief of staff john kelly says the california high school teacher whose antimilitary rent went viral should "go to hell." he made the remark on fox news radio. >> because the military a bunch of dumb blanks. lowest of the low. what's your reaction? he's teaching 17-year-olds. >> i think the guy ought to go to hell. i hope he enjoys the liberties and the lifestyle that we have fought for. >> bret: he has been placed on administrative leave and remove from all assignments relating to his position on the pico rivera city council. will president trump release t

then there is gitmo. gitmo got a standing ovation. it was sort of an uncomfortable moment. if you want to keep gitmo open, it should feel like a necessary evil, not something you stand and applaud. it's not happy day to keep gitmo open. it should feel like well, unfortunately we have to -- >> good point. >> i sort of like that one really sort of startled me. what are we cheering about gitmo? so it wasn't the speech that they sold it to be. and honestly, i just don't -- you know, i go through these things, especially these teleprompter speeches he gives. it's not him. so it's hard to judge these speeches because we know it's not him. it's him reading off a teleprompter. there are some things he says that sound like him totally, you know. he'll throw in a beautiful and extra totally. but you can tell he is reading it. he doesn't own it. they're better off -- i think they would be better off letting him ad lib because it would be authentic there is a mission authenticity. [ laughter ] you guys are laughing. >> you listen to the president on twitter? he would get himself indict

. >> to your boy in gitmo, that's the closest thing to love you are going to get. [cheering and applause] you might want to ask him to search more often. excuse me, i might be hiding something, sir. [laughter] i have an issue with the whole that recruiting because i remember i was in high school the army guys would come down and they would have you you a train before you got there and the guys that stuck it out they got a chance to go and the guys who did it, had to keep doing those things until you do lose 30 pounds or lose this or whatever and the guys wanted it they did it. so, if you have guys were out of shape, get them in shape. the thing about being out of shape is you can't get into shape. greg: unless you're me. >> so, get them in shape. it's basic training. it sucks and you might get hurt. i understand that but it's part of it. you are getting young men need guidance and need to learn things so don't condemn them for being out of shape but give them the tools to get in shape because they're willing to defend our country so give them the opportunity to do

al-baghdadi was a prisoner at gitmo. he was released. where did we catch them again?r he's out come out there committing terrorist acts. again, that's not the point, that's something you don't have to have in this speech in an hour and 20 minutes. he could have probably left that out. it was used to needle the other side. as lots of things you could add in or not. i will save our joe kennedy, i think people are being really mean, you are being mean. everybody's being mean. i don't like to go after somebody. i didn't like it when they went after marco rubio or anyone who does these responses. it's a miserable thing. i think the democrats had to be fairly happy with that. then the whole thing about the sins of the uncle twice removed or something. but if you are a young democrat and you feel if you cannot stand president trump and you saw that you are like, there is hope for us. it's not bernie sanders, not elizabeth warren. i'm not saying joe kennedy is going to run in 2020 but it was definitely a contrast. >> greg: but it is still the kennedys. it still another family

so he's going to reverse obama's executive order to close gitmo he's going to announce that tonight so there's going to be controversy coming out of this ok the big question can the president unite the country he met with some journalists today and talked about that's his big lift and he wants to be able to do it without a big event if we were to go through some type of attack obviously all of us or americans politics would be left at the water's edge and we would all jump in and go after those americans to fight back with whatever it might be he hopes he doesn't have to have to deal with a big event and he sees his mission is to unite the country can he do that one speech well that remains to be seen he has been a president that has certainly offered up a heck of a lot of tweets that have gotten a lot of interpretation let's put it that way. president trope is expected obviously to tout the success of his america first policy and take credit for much of the gains that the economy has enjoyed over the first year of his presidency wall street has hit record numbers in unemployment co

there are 41- prisoners at gitmo. ( darya ) after the state of union... bay area congressman eric swalwell. the democrat says the president needs to work congress in a bipartisan way.<"tonight the president showed he can read off a teleprompter. but if he wants to show he can lead our country, he has to string two productive days in a row and we haven't seen him do that. he talks a pretty big game about solving our immigration issues and moving people around with improved infrastructure but that takes working with congress"> ( darya ) for more on the state of the union... go to kron-4 dot com. there you will find the full address from the president... the democratic response following his speech. and a gallery of photos from inside congress.

( james ) plus... this won't be your usual bank. why some lawmakers are calling for a marijuna bank for pot providers. ( james ) and after the break... a cand

the reality is we have to keep gitmo open. it's just the reality of it. >> sandra: how do you make that case to critics of this who say it's expensive, not totally necessary. they lay out other options. as we've heard from the left many times they call it a recruiting tool for terrorists. >> well, it's a recruiting tool for terrorists -- some believe that but it also in their propaganda but it also is a deterrent for terrorists. i've been out on the battlefield and we have gotten intelligence where they think if they do this they will end up dead or in gitmo that's not something they want to do. the other piece back to the options, sandra. there aren't any other good ones. are we going to hold our soldiers to the same evidence standard and put them through the u.s. court system? no. it's not reliable to send them back to places like yemen and pakistan where they end up being released. so that's just the final option and because yet obama refused to accept that, we are finding all of these workarounds. putting guys on ships and

melissa: he said gitmo, signing executive order to keep gitmo open. daca, that was trending.her all of the stories we saw last night. to make an impact in the world. to lead meaningful, productive lives and to be able to secure legacy for our children and our grandchildren. and how can you aas so many of these adeled beltway anti-trumpists did, our president of being the divisive one when he brought together gee sung-ho, defiantly waves his crutches at freedom. parents of otto warmbier and parents of nissa, who were murdered by ms-13 gang members. if they were democratic guests everyone of their names would be written and engrained in the public's mind and sphere. they are white-washed time and again. seizing of narrative, telling stories that the major media would rather cover up that i appreciate -- brian: prediction where will we be on infrastructure, on immigration, election? >> well look, these are not going to be easy battles. there will grabs roots conservatives and limited government conservatives who are going to operate based on empirical evidence and test every sin

jillian: good morning to you as well. 11 gitmo detainees are suing president trump.lim and that the president wants to keep them there forever. lawyers using some of the president's tweets as evidence, including this one saying there should be no further releases from gitmo. the detainees want to be charged or set free. >>> the latest social media craze now drawing strong warnings from the medical world. saying laundry pod challenge where people eat those tiny detergent-filled packets can lead to number of problems, burns to the skin, eyes and respiratory track. proctor & gamble which manufactures some of the packs expressing concern over the stunt. >>> vice president pence took time out of busy schedule to pose for self if i with members from las vegas. he visited nellis air force base where he delivered inspiring pep talk to troops. >> be ready. mind your mission. take care of one another. train as never before. the american people are counting on you. jillian: pence in town for the grand opening of a nonprofit works base that brings small businesses and innovators

was going to say, if the american president was like stalin, you know, people like me would be in gitmor worse. so, no, there's no comparison there to the man, but it just puzzles me as to why any american president would use a phrase so associated with somebody like joseph stalin. it just doesn't comport and it's not good for any of us. >> so, let's drill down a little bit. it's obviously relentless for all of us, and it has enabled many foreign leaders to take a page out of president trump's book and batter us over the head with that fake news. but specifically to the u.s. democracy, what bothers you about it? do you think the u.s. democracy is fragile enough to succumb to this kind of, as you say, relentless, daily attack on the press? >> well, gratefully, our institutions are strong, and certainly, we have protections to a free press. but it's not good when the president utters falsehoods like crowd size was bigger than any in the past. that's more innocuous and doesn't mean as much, but to say things like the russia matter just broadly, without being more precise, is a hoax, or rus

i think ultimately -- and gitmo, policy-wise, it's that.ng with megyn, by tomorrow afternoon we're not talking about the state of the union, we're probably talking about whatever he's tweeting about. >> do you find it remarkable that he's not going on the road? >> he can't believe he hasn't been on the road this year. i don't understand why he hasn't sold his tax plan in eight of the ten red states already. it has befuddled me, the political operation of this white house. they've done a very poor job of selling their best asset lately, the tax bill. tonight is the first night they've truly tried to tell is. >> the vice president is going to be doing a lot of that salesmanship, they believe he can sell the tax bill. i think the headlines tomorrow may well be about russia, because that is still the shadow overhanging. >> mike pom-pompeo said only yesterday the russians will interfere in the next election. >> and are already interfering now online. he will not address the russian threat. >> is it a reluctance to separate the two, the investiga

when you get back to gitmo, right now there are only 41 inmates at guantanamo.00, many of whom have gone back to the battlefield. while i can be critical of trump on many things, on national defense he is strong and on this issue he is dead right. stuart: that expression, repeat it for me, unlawful enemy combatant, is that what you said. >> unlawful enemy combatant, combatant, i'm fine with that what does that mean going forward? does it mean if we seize one of these people on the battlefield, we don't have to bring them back to a civil jury trial in america? we can put them in guantanamo bay and try them by the military, is that what it means? >> if we choose that. in tactical terms, the geneva convention was originally created an unlawful enemy combatant to be skilled r killed on battlefield, doesn't where a badge, doesn't obey laws of war, doesn't answer to formal government, not part of identified revolutionary movement they're beyond the pale of humanity as we see with isis and al qaeda. beyond the pale of humanity. we'll not summarily execute them, but any

flaws in the iran deal and new rules of engagement in the war on terror after just signing to keep gitmodent obama treated terrorists abroad more like a criminal investigation rather than a really rigorous, treating these terrorists as unlawful enemy combatants, donald trump was very clear, having moral clarity, these people are evil, these are unlawful enemy combatants, we are going to kill them or capture the man detained demand not release them so soldiers are being attacked by them on the battlefield. >> what was the most significant element in terms of foreign-policy to you that he tackled last night? >> the north korea issue, demonstrating so many people here in north korea that one to escape the evil of the regime and the fact they are so close to reliable nuclear missile i can reach american cities is the most pressing threat facing the country and the president made that so clear it was a powerful moment. >> we appreciate it. the time is 15 minutes until the top of the hour so what was the real headline from the state of the union? you might not know if you listen to mainstream

right now, 41 detainees remain in gitmo. ticking closer to the end of the world. scientists moving the symbolic timepiece to the same place we were during the cold war. >> midnight meaning world annihilation by nuclear war, that will happen at midnight. atomic scientists citing escalating tensions between north korea and donald trump as the reason for this move. >> we heard about the end of the world so many times that are still here to talk about it, i am just going with that. >> doing our friday dance, the friday dance party. >> steve told we never had a friday dance party but i'm bringing it back anyway. the guy in the club right now. >> looking at current temperatures, 26 in new york city, 39 in chicago, not a bad forecast for much of the company. showers and storms across the gulf coast, monday on the east coast if you are traveling across the west coast, that is where we have rain, not a huge deal. and the sierra range and northern rockies, looking good across the central us, the real cool is bottled in canada, winter

list i think especially now that we have reports that a lot of the people that were released from gitmo not just baghdad who of course was in iraq and released the iraqi authorities before before being released but a lot of the other get mo releases from obama did in fact join either al qaeda are isis on the battlefield and we have some of that confirmation and so i don't think they'll be much opposition to that i do think there will be lots of opposition to immigration well moving on as well one of the other points that he really emphasized physically at the end of the speech it was all the dramatic stuff that we saw you talk about north korea i mean and how dangerous it was how cool it was to citizens why do you think he emphasized what he did and also the way that he did it. well i mean he did it in a very powerful way he brought a north korean defector there who of course had his own crutches it was a very powerful thing i don't think anybody in the world would argue that that wasn't a very powerful thing even bringing up the story this is a young man that went to china for a short

. >> 11 men are trying to get out of gitmo by using trump's own words against him. >> not because heants to but because of his public statements arguing that it should never be closed and nobody should ever be released from guantÁnamo ever. >> the supreme court is like for it to stay opened all the time. it needs to be treated on a case by case basis. trump blew that up with his, forgive me dumb public staples on guantÁnamo and insisting that nobody should get out of guantÁnamo regardless of circumstances. he maybe the one closes on gone mo guantÁnamo. the white house is not denying these sources tonight. why norway? as we try to figure out as a country and as individual citizens what we can stand and what we cannot, all right, what stands as a typical day of new and insanity and beat up and roll off and what counts as a breaking point, one of the things we can factor into the balance of this country is caused by having an openly ra racerac racist president. can it also and be used to undo the most radical work of this white house. ] rodney. bowling. classic. can i help you? it's me.

made a couple of swipes against obama care and gitmo - keeping it open. no mention of russian meddling in the 2016 and upcoming elections. and apparently the first lady didn't ride with him in his motorcade... so maybe it is a house divided. teleprompter trump... now we're waiting for tweeting trump. should be interesting. thank you tom del bacarro.l grant, back to you. (grant) and shortly after the president's speech... the official democratic response was delivered by representative joe kennedy the third. he slammed the president's policies and had this message to people affected by daca. (grant) and our coverage president trump's first state of the union address continues online at kron-4 dot com we have the full address from the presiden

doubled down, in guantÁnamo bay, prior to the address, donald trump signed an executive order to keep gitmo re-examine military detention policies. not only a 10 on the economy but the homeland but a ton on foreign-policy as well. >> donald trump touting in the first state of the union outlining aggressive agenda with confidence. railing against the response, and glad blake zimmerman, political commentator, very familiar if you watched the show yesterday. we want to start off with this, a lot of people on the left say it wasn't bringing people together at all. >> i would have to agree with that, part of my comments yesterday all about this rhetoric, what do those policies say? sounded great, sounded -- at the end of the day, what is he planning to do today? i do not care what the president said yesterday. i care what the president does today and that is how we look at it. what is he going to do now that he delivered that riveting speech, how is he going to implement policies that reflect that. >> what did you think of the speech? >> they stood for nothing. democrats should be very ashamed o

if another correspondent had treated president obama like that, he would've thrown him in gitmo. very disrespectful. flake, a noble statesman, but totally out of control. stalin killed 20 million people. trump the only people he's been killing has been isis. you can criticize the press. it doesn't mean you are attacking the first amendment. fake news is the enemy of the republican party. president trump is the only republican that's actually said it. he's been incredibly open. he just did a 40 minute on the record interview with "the new york times" at mar-a-lago. also did another on the record interview with "the wall street journal," just spoke to reuters for 45 minutes. his own doctor told us things we didn't really want to know for an hour in the press room. incredibly transparent and you juxtapose that to president obama who put more whistle-blowers in jail than anybody else, prosecuted them, had hillary clinton tying up reporters and ropes. i remember that. never even went on fox news, was terrified. i didn't hear a lot of people saying oh, you know, president obama is enco

. >> greg: did you hear this story about the gitmo detainees who are jumping on the "me too" issue.claim they are being sexually harassed because they are frisked before going into court. >> jesse: no one cares. no one is interested. >> juan: there were new people put in place and they had new ways of conducting searches. actually the court said they can't search some of the lawyers documents. i must say if we are talking about language on this. >> kimberly: have you gone through tsa these days? i am saying if they pull you aside. >> greg: i requested it. we must move on. a teacher was dragged out of a school board meeting and arrested for questioning her bosses pay. now she's encouraging others to take a stand. it's ok that everye ignores me while i drive. it's fine. because i get a safe driving bonus check every six months i'm accident free. and i don't share it with mom! right, mom? righttt. safe driving bonus checks. only from allstate. switching to allstate is worth it. you may be at increased risk for pneumococcal pneumonia, that can take you out of the game for weeks, even if

. >> he told christiane amanpour, if i was stalin, i'd be in gitmo. john mccain has an op-ed in "the washington post" backing up flake. here's what he writes. "whether trump knows it or not, these efforts are being closely watched by foreign leader who is are already using his words as cover while they silence and shutter one of the key pillars of our democracy." >> the point he's making is that trump's words here in the united states has an impact in other countries. here are some stats about the impact of the kind of fake news receipt for rec a -- rhetoric and what it could mean. in countries like turkey and china and egypt, there were 21 cases last year where journalists were jailed on so-called fake news or false news charges. that's not happening in the united states. it's happening in other countries with dictorial leaders. the point that mccain is trying to make, trump's words have impact in other countries. >> give some of these dictators a pass. >> what they are both doing is focusing on the impact of the daily repetition of the term fake new

then there's gitmo. it got a standing ovation. it was an uncomfortable moment. if you want to keep it open, it should feel like necessary evil. not something you stand and applaud. it is not a happy day. it should feel like, well, unfortunately -- that one really sort of started me. what are we cheering? it wasn't the speech they sold it to be. i go through teleprompter speeches. it is not him. there are some things he speaks sound like him. i'll throw in a beautiful and an extra totally but you can tell he's reading it. he did you tell own it. i think they would be better off letting him adlib it. >> the white house is in a duel with investigators over whether or not he can be the interviewed. >> i'm saying the donald trump that we know with his twitter feed. all of this. the guy that likes the give us all nicknames. that isn't who you saw. when you don't see this trump very often. i don't know if they can sell anythi anything. >> exactly half the speech. it was like devils food cake with vanilla ice kriel. just great to eat. all nice. and then let have some ri

along with reopening gitmo for business. you had the republican party, let's not forget trump is the head of the republican party, cheering on defiance of international law and human rights. i think that was the telltale moment because that is what this a administration is about on the foreign policy front. he is a false populist. f no reactionary populist, but a populist. last night was littered with broken promises even as he promised war. i'm not going to hold my breath for lower drug prices, which he spoke of. i'm not going to hold my breath for more treatment of an opioid crisis come up which as you probably know in 2016 there were more opioid overdoses than combat deaths in vietnam. and he has scammed the american people with a tax cut. i know you're talked a lot about it on this program, which was essentially a handout to the corporations a big into his own family. last night he tried to boast that this was a tax cut for the american people. future, this our tax cut. it feels to invest in a future. which of the democr

>> i think many of us felt he would throw out one liners and -- keeping gitmo open, for instance.is costing $13 million a year per person. only 41 people are left there. he throws out the a couple of nice lines. immigration comments were very divisive. when you say chain migration instead of family unification, you're not trying to come up with a compromise. >> is it going to be impossible for democrats? >> it is not impossible. compromise is only. you don't say this is compromise, here, i have given you something that is compromise. you sit down and negotiate. he wants to bring in 1.8 million dreamers, not just the 800,000. but then he wants to impose all of these restrictions and a $25 billion wall. >> what is going to happen with immigration since he laid out his best case or argument. as you know, we are facing another deadline for next week for a government shutdown. >> i think we are nowhere. unless he does a clean cr with a clean daca fix for the 800,000. i think we will be teetering on another shutdown, which is horrible. >> and then what? >> then what, exactly. he has got

today dianne feinstein released a statement saying that this administration should be the one to close gitmo. searchers digging through tons of mud and debris, holding out hope for survivors. we will go live to california for an update on the deadly mudslides there. that's next. touch is how we communicate with those we love, but when your psoriasis is bad, does it ever get in the way? embrace the chance of 100% clear skin with taltz. taltz is proven to help people with moderate to severe psoriasis achieve completely clear skin. with taltz, up to 90% of patients had a significant improvement of their psoriasis plaques. in fact, 4 out of 10 even achieved completely clear skin. don't use if you're allergic to taltz. before starting, you should be checked for tuberculosis. taltz may increase risk of infections and lower your ability to fight them. tell your doctor if you have an infection or have symptoms, or if you've received a vaccine or plan to. inflammatory bowel disease can happen with taltz, including worsening of symptoms. serious allergic reactions can occur. ready for a chance at 100%

wonder if you see in a parallel to what happened or what i thought had happened when it came to the gitmo litigation, where, after september 11, the courts at first stayed out, giving the administration a lot of latitude. itr the years, it seemed became more and more willing to intervene and have something to say about get mel and then said forget all of this. i wonder if thurber's might be true here. right after the election, there is a lot of scrutiny on the travel bans, given what the president said during the campaign and the transition and that sort of thing. there's a real suspicion that it was very much a based in animus. and you think that the supreme court, the lower courts are more and moreime focused on the text of what the thing says rather than the this?op to all of or do you think that those comments by the president will continue to have a big effect as we get [indiscernible] if i can just add on top of that the difference in the different orders. it no longer applies to muslim majority countries. we've done the vetting. these are the ones where we still need more informati

another thing that stood out, gitmo, guantanamo bay, the detention facility. big reveal was that he had signed this executive order, basically reversing what president obama had said to do, which was to shutter it and get the detainees transferred to other countries. he opened the door to actually bringing them off the battlefield there, something very near and dear to john kelly's heart, the chief of staff, because he oversaw this detention facility. that is going to be very controversial. and lastly, north korea, i thought it was an interesting approach as going through it as a human rights issue. he tried to personalize it, talking about otto warmbier. >> his parents there. >> absolutely. and there are still three americans being held there. bringing in the defector from north korea. he didn't talk about fire and fury. he didn't talk in a belligerant way about it. he reached out on the issue of values, which is interesting for an administration that usually tries to avoid human rights and even makes a virtue out of not focusing publicly on human rights. it

he didn't lead with a conciliatory tone on immigration, he didn't lead with a conciliatory tone on gitmo he didn't lead with a conciliatory tone on things like the infrastructure plan. i felt like he spoke more to his base than i expected him to, particularly on immigration, and that could be part of his sales pitch. maybe he knows that amnesty for 1.8 million is something his base doesn't like, so he led with the "let me paint the picture of this myth cical immigrant here that i want everybody to get fired up about." i felt like they forced too much applause and the speech dragged. the problem is that's not the donald trump we see every day, so while he can sound presidential in a moment like this, because it's not what we're used to seeing, i don't know that it has the same effect. >> some may read this as tired, some may read this as measured. whatever rate, it was a slower speech. megyn kelly, at the outset of the evening, you weren't expecting this. >> no, and i think he did a fine job, but i think he's going to tweet something and we'll forget all about it. these things just don't

no democrat a fan of barack obama saying he didn't close gitmo and now i hate him.ust like trump's base will stay we still love him. he brought us tax reform and neil gorsuch. >> sandra: we had flashbacks of bill clinton and barack obama talking about securing the border. >> i think democrats should be more reasonable and take a bipartisan deal. we have 66 votes for that. republicans control both and they can't get it done on their own. >> the best they can say is it's a waste of money. if they really care about -- >> there are republicans -- >> if you really care about the dreamers, we'll give you that, it's a waste of money. 8 or 20 billion. the federal government wastes more than that in an afternoon. fine it's a waste of money but we'll give it to you because we care about the dreamers. you don't really care about the dreamers. >> of course we do. there are representatives in border states saying the wall is not the best way to protect the country. talk to arizona and texas. they've said on the record they don't endorse the wall and think there should be more fe
