a subpoena that the committee issued. >> i thought your argument was that the injury the house judiciary committee has suffered is frustrating its ability to carry out its investigation? is that the power to say the constitution gives you? >> that is the power vested in the house and delegated to this committee. this committee is the plaintiff in this case. the question for standing purposes is trying to determine whether the plaintiff is asserting an injury that is a particularized injury to that plaintiff. that is what distinguishes the committee in this case, which has issued a subpoena and is entitled to information in response to the subpoena from the plaintiff in raynes who were asserting an interest that belong to the legislature as a whole. this is a case in which the plaintiff in the words of the supreme court in later cases, there is a match between the plaintiff and the injury asserted. >> raynes is about more than just you are being injured. there are certain types of injuries. as i understand your friend's argument about raynes, the supreme court says this type, the type of injury to

fame, being the first republican member of the house, the first republican i think on the house judiciary committee to support the impeachment of president nixon. >> guest: i was in high school at the time and my dad was on the house judiciary committee. he was a strong supporter of president nixon, and i got the chance to meet president. they campaigned together and i think my dad was fond of mixing and victor -- fond of nixon. he was one of those on the committee making sure the process was fair, pushing back when he thought the democrats were being too partisan. he fought to make sure the president could present his own witnesses and evidence. he was a former fbi agent and lawyer who after seeing the evidence it pained him but he believed the president had committed impeachable offenses and he was the first on the committee to say so. at the time a lot of republicans were awfully mad at him in the white house and congress and voters in the district, but it's something he's probably most remembered for her and i am most proud of him because he had the courage to stand up and put aside his own pol

new york times today reporting two democrats on the house judiciary committee urge the fbi director oninal investigation into the role that the postmaster general louis dejoy played in mail delays they said threaten to compromise the november election. the committee members ted lou of california made the request in a two-page letter to fbi director. they also called on the bureau to scrutinize the actions of the postal services board of governors. in addition to calling on law enforcements to investigate whether

rarely you get a senate judiciary hearing more exciting than the house judiciary committee hearing. e house judiciary committee hearings full of bombast but this rose to that level. elizabeth: let me back up. sally yates didn't address alleged abuses by the fbi we're finding in declassified government documents. that the fbi used pretext after regular debriefing of general flynn to spy on him. talked about not reading him miranda rights. talked about putting him in perjury trap. comey said the phone call with the russian ambassador appeared legit. when the fbi wanted to drop the case against general flynn. comey said we'll use the chaos, we'll use the chaos of incoming trump administration to basically go after flynn. also the opposition research, steele dossier paid for by democrats. that seemed to be not addressed by sally yates yesterday. your reaction? >> comey has admitted as much, that he did go rogue. he wanted to use the chaos in between administrations to try to get general flynn in that interview. you have peter strzok's notes. are we trying to get him to tell the truth? ar

incredible moment of fame, the first republican member of the house, the first republican on the house judiciary committee to support the impeachment of president nixon. >> guest: i was in high school at the time, my dad was on the house judiciary committee, strong supporter of president nixon and i got a chance to meet the president and they campaigned together. thought he did a good job on foreign-policy with respect to china and he was one of the folks on the judiciary committee fighting to make sure the process was fair, pushing back when he thought democrats were being too partisan, to make sure the president could present his own witnesses and evidence but he was a former fbi agent and georgetown lawyer who after seeing all the evidence it pained him but he really believed the president had committed impeachable offenses, he was the first republican on the committee to come out and say so. at the time a lot of republicans were mad at him. the white house, his friends in congress and voters in the district but it is the thing he is most remembered for in the thing i'm most proud of him about because

joining me is pennsylvania's guy reschenthaler from the house judiciary committee., great to see you. you know kevin clinesmith admits, he admits that he committed a felony in order to spy on an american, not on a russian, but on an american. that specifically, senator durbin sees nothing wrong with that. your response to him? >> well, david, first off, thanks for having me on tonight. david: thank you. >> the bottom line is that the democrats i feel are living in an alternate reality. we know that clinesmith lied, he actually forged an email to make it seem that carter page was a russian asset. he was actually an asset of the cia. he was being used to get information on the russians. and when clinesmith forged an email and presented that email to the fisa court judges he lied to the judges, presented false information and he should face the maximum penalty of five years. hopefully he will then turn on those above him and we can do what is called a bust and turn operation where you get somebody lower on the rung and you work your way up. but what the senator was say

we have kelly armstrong from the house judiciary committee. good to see you, congressman.the head of somebody else but i will ask you. why do you think the democrats would hear from somebody, somebody who was a witness to the fact that the investigation the democrats sort of based a lot of the first term of president trump on was a hoax? it was clearly a hoax. in fact a hoax that was admitted to last week by former fbi official who admitted that he falsified evidence for the fisa warrant? >> i'm assuming it is probably because kevin clinesmith was unavailable. irony of having sally yates testify on leadership matters when just recently she testified in front of the judiciary committee that she had no control over her fbi agents, didn't know anything was going on, was adamant that the logan act had nothing to do with this but conveniently couldn't remember if vice president biden brought up the logan act. keep in mind the logan act is a piece of law so serious it has never been prosecuted successfully in 100 year history on the books. if you want to obscure all personal res

month ago to the day you did have jeff bezos he was in the hot seat testifying before the house judiciary committee where he was called out for basically killing your brick and mortar mom and pop shops now this was his answer or lack there of when he was asked point blank does amazon have access to 3rd party seller data on its platform well here's the response. can't answer that question yes or no but i can tell you is we have a policy against using solar specific data to aid our private label business but i can guarantee you that the policy has never been violated do category managers have access to nonpublic data about 3rd party products and businesses. and the fact that we have such a policy is voluntary i think no other retailer even has such opposing. policy we would treat it like any internal policy and if we found it so inviolate it we would take action against them you have access to data that your competitors do not have so you might allow 3rd party sellers onto your platform but if your continuous. monitoring the data to make sure that they're never going to get big enough that they can c
