there are other cases on the horizon. >> glor: our supreme court expert jan crawford, thanks. the supreme court has never been asked to weigh in on whether a president may use constitutional power to grant pardons to him or herself, but the current president weighed in with his opinion today. here's paula reid. >> reporter: the president tweeted this morning that while he has no plans to pardon himself, he could if he wanted to. "i have the absolute right to pardon myself, but why would i do that when i have done nothing wrong?" he also continued his attacks on the legitimacy of the special counsel, tweeting that robert mueller's appointment is "totally unconstitutional." the president's tweet echoed comments from personal attorney rudy giuliani sunday. >> there is nothing that limits the presidential power of pardon from a federal crime. >> reporter: but giuliani acknowledged that the question of whether the president can pardon himself is less about legality than politics. >> the president of the united states pardoning himself would just be unthinkable, and it would lead to

"u.s.-russia relations are not in the best shape," putin said, and then he blamed acute u.s. inlitical infighting. putin denies meddling in the 2016 presidential election, a sensitive subject for president trump, who did not commit to addressing it. >> you never know about meetings what happens, right? >> reporter: the two leaders have met twice before, but only on the sidelines of atternational summits. >> i think it would be an asset .o have russia back in. ng re

here is jan crawford. >> moments after the court's ruling, the masterpiece cake shop, baker jack phillipsebrated what he saw as victory for religious freedom. in a 7-2 ruling written by justice anthony kennedy. the court said colorado officials who compared, phillip's religious objections to defenses of the slavery and holocaust, a clear and impermissible hostility toward thatedection to efs baking the cake. phillips told us when the court was considering the case he would serve same-sex couples other baked good in his shop but would not create a wedding cake. >> because? >> because the biblical teaching on marriage is pretty clear. and this is promoting a ceremony that goes against those core teachings. >> the court's ruling was narrow and may well apply only to phillips. the justices made a plea for civility in future cases writing. these disputes must be resolved with tolerance, without un do disrespect to sincere religious beliefs and without subjecting gay gay persons to indignities. the language gave the couple. charlie craig and david mullins some comfort. >> i think the decision i

jan crawford is at the supreme court with the significance of this decision. n, good morning. >> good morning, norah. you know, vindication, because the president had lost at almost every turn in the lower courts. he vowed he would continue fighting for an immigration system that he says will serve the interests of american citizens. >> i will always be defending the sovereignty, the safety and security of the american people. >> reporter: the administration framed the decision as a victory for security. >> this decision is critical to ensuring the continuing authority of president trump. >> reporter: as the supreme court emphasized presidents have long had sweeping authority in defense of the nation, but democrats were quick to call the ban discrimination that hurts the country. >> it is dangerous. it makes us less safe. >> reporter: chief judge justice robert's decision says this. it covered five countries that past administrations had identified as security risks. the policy is a far cry from the president's first effort that caused chaos at airports worldwi

going forward i will adopt the line that jan crawford use that it was democrats biggest political blunder to use the filibuster against gorsuch because now they can't use it in a place that matters. now it's moving the courts more to the right. one thing we know is we are not going to get a crappy judge. i don't think were going to have judge judy or rudy giuliani. i think that lists would not have been different if ted cruz is president or anyone else. i'll be looking for different things. i look at his list of 25. i am optimistic about that. it will be a different court not only in terms of what's right but the chief justice been the median justice. >> i didn't really have the understanding that we had about the filibuster. do you want to take us into another area that we had found that justice kennedy is deemed to very important. one of the nation's leading experts on voting and campaign finance. >> that's the problem to be much more pessimistic over the love's firm. what i would say until yesterday's set there are three significant cases of the term but i now think we have other victo

jan crawford has covered the supreme court during much of justice kennedy's tenure. n, good morning. president trump is now going to have the conservative supreme court that republicans have dreamed of for a lifetime. does this mean that roe versus wade that grants abortion rights will be doomed? >> no. and, you know, i mean president trump may have that supreme court conservatives have dreamed about for a lifetime. what i've learned from covering the supreme court for the last 25 years is that conservative justices tend to disappoint republicans and the conservatives who try to put them on the supreme court. and they'll typically side, sometimes, with liberals on social issues. just as justice kennedy did. he was nominated by president reagan. to say that roe versus wade is in jeopardy is overstating it right now. we don't know how other justices on the conservative would vote right now on that. justice clarence thomas is the only justice on the supreme court who has said he would overturn it. it could well be considered federal law. but what i do think you're going

jan crawford reports. >> in michigan, police linked one man to a string of armed robberies, retracing his steps as his cellphone connected to different cell sites. but in a major statement for privacy in a technological age, the supreme court said they violated his rights when they monitored his movements without first getting a warnltd. when the government tracks the location of a cellphone, it gets near perfect surveillance as if it had attached an ankle monitor to the user. >> we all carry our cellphone and what that creates is a historical log of your locations and movements over time. >> everywhere you go. >> everywhere you. >> where the government can track you. >> correct. there has been a seismic shift in technology and also the implications for privacy since the 1970s when most of these cases were decided. digital data is just different, fundamentally than analogue old school records or bank records. >> and the chief justice parted ways with other conservatives. they were all in dissent. judge samuel eliye toe said it will reject many things that law enforcement has come to r

going forward, i will adopt the line jan crawford used at cbs news, that it was the democrats' biggest blunder to use the block against gorsuch because now they can't use it where it matters. now it's moving the court more to the right. one thing we do know is we're not going to get a trumpy judge, meaning i don't think we're going to have chris christie or rudy giuliani, judge judy, who knows, jeanine pirro. who knows. he's going to go from the list. and that list would have been no different if ted cruz had been president or anyone else. so i'll be looking for different things than y'all are. i differentiate the various people on the list of 25, but i'm optimistic about that, but it's going to be a very, very different court, not just in terms of left/right, but in terms of the chief justice being the median justice. we haven't had that in a long time. >> i didn't really have the understanding that you did that the filibuster accomplished a lot. but rick, do you want to take us into another area that we had thought of as justice kennedy as being incredibly important. rick is at uc ir
