stay right there, will have more with jay sekulow after the break. also michelle malkin will weigh in on tonight's court ruling. plus our opening monologue a little delayed but you do not want to miss tonight on how republicans in congress need to take president trump's lead and start working much harder for you, the american people. later tonight, a video, senator elizabeth warren does not want you to see, about d her false claims about the now attorney general jeff sessions and test breaks out in phoenix over the deportation of a convicted criminal illegal alien, that and more on this busy newsnight here on "hannity" dear predictable, there's no other way to say this. it's over. i've found a permanent escape from monotony. together, we are perfectly balanced, our senses awake, our hearts racing as one. i know this is sudden, but they say: if you love something... set it free. see you around, giulia ♪ >> i am jackie yvonne is anymore. they were tricked rejecting the dash mr. trump vowing to keep fighting in court but the seniority chuck schumer is g

jay sekulow, you've seen the reactions today.me people seem to be leaning a little bit towards allowing an up or down vote and allowing closure. and not forcing the republicans to go nuclear. i suspect what we said last night, will be true. the democrats are going to dig their heels in, be the obstructionist they have been since donald trump was been elected. >> >> we don't have the luxury to not assume that will happen. we have to look at the supreme court nominees and when you're in a nomination fight, this one in particular, you've got a fight on your hands. you've heard the democratic leadership today, they are wavering. the public interest groups, alliance for justice, people for the american way, planned parenthood, they are spending tens of millions of dollars to try to discredit a judge set not only has impeccable credentials but is a decade-long track record on the court of appeals. i've had the privilege of having a case it was before him, i have seen his judicial work. >> sean: how many times? >> countless times before

i want to echo what jay sekulow said. the president who was supposed to be this carnival barker, this tv guy, this bulgarian, what dignity and grace it wasn't about him, who is all about judge gorsuch, it was a great moment for donald trump. for those of us who went through this campaign and i know you did, we sweat blood a lot of the time, people said what are the arguments? >> sean: i would do that again in a heartbeat. >> i would say the supreme court. people would say cynically, the roman emperor caligula, he will appoint his sister or some joker. well, he appointed neil gorsuch. end of story, end of case. there is the argument for the president of united states right here. this guide will serve 25 or 30 amazing years. >> sean: we have been around politics a long time. i covered robert bork, clarence thomas, we have seen how ugly this process can be. we both know and understand this. this is justice scalia's seat. i wouldn't expect anything less from the democrats than a fight. the bigger picture, we have seen a lot o

joining us now from the american center for law and justice, jay sekulow. round to get facts on the table. the the big story, you agree wie me, the intelligence community has been politicized among some. what they did in leaking this was illegal, correct? >> absolutely illegal, almost becomes a soft crew in a sense. a felony. >> sean: that would be the espionage act, 18 u.s. code 798. the other thing is, so we know our intelligence agencies, they were doing their job and monitoring the russian ambassador. there is law and protocol, i want you to go into more detail here, when they discover that an american is being spoken to, the person they have targeted for surveillance, if they don't have a warrant, they are supposed to stop recording, minimize what they hear from the american citizen, in this case, it would be general flynn. that makes it illegal. >> so it is called minimization. it is a requirement under the law. when you find out it is american, you don't have a wiretap essentially, shut it off for their portion of the conversation. sean, there was a

also announced from laura ingraham, jay sekulow, tomi lahren, corey lewandowski will all be here tonight. let me give you the truth of what's really going on and the analysis that nobody on tv is going to give you.ly this legal battle that you're watching unfold over the extreme vetting executive order to keep you safe is just one of many tools a master plan to obstruct and damage president donald trump, that it's tonight's opening monologue. so the democratic party and their liberal allies are plotting, planning, scheming to slow down, stop, and even destroy president donald trump and the agenda that you voted him to be president for. the washington free beacon is now reporting on the tactics, we've not independently verified this but according to the free beacon left-wing agitator david brock founder of media matters hosted a private getaway at a risky resort last month, over 100 rich liberal donors were there. the free beacon obtained a copy of the confidential outline year to year and their plan to take down president trump. the document details how to expand media matters mission, f

jay sekulow weighs in on the legal aspects of that.o tonight... >> so if i come back in 200 days, you're going to -- well, i made a promise -- >> here is what i am saying. we've mapped this out for 200 days. we have a plan to do that. we are on schedule. >> sean: yesterday, washington, i went to go interview the speaker of the house. we are starting a new segment tonight, "holding them accountable." we'll tell you all about it straight ahead. but grandma, we use charmin ultra soft so we don't have to wad to get clean. charmin ultra soft gets you clean without the wasteful wadding. it has comfort cushions you can see that are softer... ...and more absorbent, and you can use up to 4 times less. enjoy the go with charmin. hambone! sally! 22! hut hut! tiki barber running a barber shop? yes!!! surprising. yes!!! what's not surprising? how much money david saved by switching to geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more. who's next? >> live from america's news headquarters, i am anita vogel. vice president of mike pence on

jay sekulow, you say the judges are getting too political. >> the question about evidence.ole line of questioning from judge friedland about evidence. that has nothing to do in this stage of the case when you are talking about a temporary reeve strange order and stay and injunction. this is procedural. we are not to the merit stage of the case. i have told you have i was nervous about the 9th circuit. that's why. when you get to the merits of this case, they don't have to show evidence when it comes to national security when the president has a clear constitutional and statutory authority. that he i -- that allows him to act. he doesn't have to prove to this judge or the 9th circuit. liz: jordan, hang on. what is so disturbing sometimes to people out there who are members of victims' families 6 terror. -- of terror. they feel like they are being jeff looked. for the judge to be asking for evidence when clearly the evidence its out there from the federal government itself. >> it's disrespectful, wrong and it was to throw the attorney off. i don't think the attorney did an ex

lou: joining me, jay sekulow. the president laying out straightforwardly. going to protect americans. he will assure our national security and he's going to secure our borders. let's start with the extreme vetting executive order. where does it stand in the law? >> clearly constitutional. the president has the authority both statutorily and nstitutionally and recogzed by supreme court precedent as well to do what he did. if people had actually read the executive order on immigration on the extreme vetting as it's called it's unremarkable. nothing different from what president obama. lou: a little long. >> they had to lay out the statutory basis upon this executive order was done. president trump would never do that. he -- president obama never did that. what president obama has done is baits on statutory law and the constitution. should we do serious vetting on people coming in from these 7 countries which the previous administration said are countries of particular concern? the answer has to be yes. lou: even though five judges made their -- made an attemp

senate to serve as the attorney general in the trump administration, tonight jay sekulow and pam bondiill react in just a few moments. senator elizabeth warren emerges as the new face of the ultraleft democratic party and she appears to do or say anything to hurt president trump and sell her new book. tonight, we'll look into who senator warns really is and that's tonight's opening monologue. senator elizabeth warren who has a very controversial past which we will get to in just a minute is now taking the lead on attacking and obstructing president trump. she took the senate floor to smear and slander jeff sessions it got so bad that the majority leader had to invoke rule 19 which states "no senator in debate shall directly or indirectly by any form of word impugn to another center or other senators any conduct or motive unworthy or unbecoming of a senator." of course senator warren didn't stop there, she followed up her performance, by declaring democrats are now the party of opposition, watch this. >> the way i see it is democrats as the minority in the house the minority in the sena

joining me now is a former trump campaign manager, partner at avenue strategies corey lewandowski, jay sekulowfat, good to see you both. let me start with you. this is so simple and basic. inconvenience versus gambling with the lives of americans. why is this even problematic? y is left so dug into this pre-9/11 mindset? >> what i don't understand is the notion that we don't want to put american first. this is with the president talked about in the campaign, this is what he's implement take and what he has said very clearly is that his priorities to make sure that this country, the of america are safe. before we let people into the country, we have no idea who they are, or what their intentions are, we'll have to slow, better venting system, how was the left even trying to argue that this is the best interest of all americans, they are so out of touch with what's going on in america, this is why they continue to lose elections. >> sean: let me go to jay, you have been so all over the legal side of all of this, the president earlier today on air force one suggested what you have been suggesting

editor-in-chief of fox news contributor laura ingraham and the american center for law and justice, jay sekulow is with us. you'll find us an amicus brief in this case. our u.s. shocked as i am? i felt that you put in issues in your brief that the government and the department of justice representative that was arguing they should have been using that they didn't use. the juicy information of the lower left on the table here? >> i did. look, i think this is a really clear cut case. the lawyer for the department of justice was asked a question, are you saying this is from the judges the president has the authority to do this on his and orange initiative? is this his authority exclusively? the answer to that question should have been immediately yes, that's what the constitution says, that's what the statute says. the department of justice lawyer hedged for a long time as you just mentioned they adopted this fallback position if you think it's overbroad and i've done overbroad statute cases, you can strike down part of it or uphold part of it. that is not the way you do this. the way you go into

. >> bill: okay now jay sekulow, good morning to you. and i know we may be interrupted here.if that happens we'll take the president's comments live. the trump administration will argue here that it's temporary and doesn't affect all muslims. the greater majority are not affected. that green card stipulation has since been amended. is that strong enough to win now? >> it sure is. bill, this is a straight forward question. the real issue before the court and not addressed well by the department of justice, does the president have the constitutional and statutory authority to issue this proclamation and executive order regarding alien entry into the united states? the straight forward and simple answer to that is absolutely he does. it has it by statute and article 2 of the constitution. the idea the court is trying to second guess this or the court trying to make this into some kind of muslim ban as if it's a religion clause violation is absurd. i think the court got it wrong in their questioning way off field and frankly the department of justice lawyer didn't help them very

. >> i think jay sekulow this morning was exactly right.diately reissue the executive order but include in there what the white house had already explained that it didn't apply to people that already had their green cards. that addresses the issue that the ninth circuit raised. even for people that don't care about the constitution like the justices on the ninth circuit, that ought to take care of it and then, you know somebody who is going to challenge it, it ought to be somebody that cares about the constitution. perhaps in the fifth circuit. but i tell you, brian, i have a bill that would divide the ninth circuit. after this kind of decision, where they didn't even mention the law that gave the president the power. don't even mention that. the ninth circuit has got to go. i think we just scrap it and create two new circuits. brian: quoting rudy giuliani. >> outrage just. say they may show a preference to christianity. he said these seven countries that th obama administration sad were a real problem. go ahead and issue the executive orde

what they are looking to do is potentially rework this so that with some minor modifications and jay sekulowt night talking about the minor modifications that he can make. the question is not does the president have the constitutional authority to write the order. of course he does. and even with a new order it is my best guess that the same judges will make the same rulings. the difference is if this gets to the supreme court, the supreme court has to rule on the constitutionality of does the president have the legal authority to do this? and under the constitution there is no question whatsoever that he has the ability to temporarily ban visas for people coming into the country. it's a constitutional issue. it's not a policy issue. clayton: does it come down to neil gorsuch then, basically i don't want to say a delay tactic but we're already in the ninth circuit with that first executive order. by issuing a new executive order we have to go through those same channels, take a while and then by then you would have neil gorsuch on the supreme court. >> i don't think he would wait that long.
