[inaudible] involving the backlash or reaction to some significant changes in our core curriculum. there was some lobbying groups and petitions being formed coming from rather different directions attempting to influence and pressure the faculty into the reverse changes or to modify the chang

you got jeff stewart, stone wall jackson, robert e. lee. >> so, there has been -- maybe a little bit of controversy about some of the statues here. what are are the feelings in the city about the statues on monument avenue? >> i think folks recognize this is part of the history. a terrible history it may be, a horrible history it may be but part of our history. as i've always said, would i share any tears if jefferson davis statue was torn down? i wouldn't but i think the history of the past of richmond, that being terrible or not, shouldn't be a -- our anchor. site should be a foundation to build from. >> it's about an opportunity for history. right now -- statues honoring or memorializing the figures and i think the key is to tell the whole story. i think richmond can be the center of reconciliation, we do have a terrible past but it's time to start writing that chapter to begin with the conversation about reconciliation. >> and what is the narrative that you would like to achieve you dream goal for your time as mayor for your time a

formed a special committee on freedom of expression chaired by one of our panelists, professor jeff stone, that restates the university's enduring commitment and a resolute core principal and value here at this institution. president zimmer has already referenced this history in his opening remarks and i'm sure the professors will likely discuss this and their leadership in our university's contemporary practice of this value in their individual remarks. for the contemporary university, however, debates do persist around the very meaning and limits of academic freedom in the context of growing diversity on campus and attunement to a campus climate that is not only inclusive of a diverse set of ideas, but also of a demographically diverse student, staff and faculty body. this year, the university of chicago's dean of students issued a welcome statement to first year students reaffirming our university's longstanding institutional commitment to academic freedom and as such, our constitutional rejection of silencing or avoiding uncomfortable or disagreeable ideas and perspectives. this was p

former trump campaign manager paul manafort, former political advisor roger stone and businessman jeffarter. the democratic congressman says the fbi does not routinely comment on pending investigations and then he singled out fbi director comey for his public statement last july about hillary clinton's emails. why the director recommended against prosecution. congressman said the fbi director set a precedent. this should apply to the trump administration. >> with respect to the clinton investigation that policy was departed from and violated in the extreme as we got closer to the election. so among other things i think it is in support for bureau to take a position. we can't talk about that. we can't talk about any investigation involving the trump campaign. that will not be sustainable. reporter: mentioned earlier today, republican congressman chairman of the house intelligence committee he has seen no evidence to support media reports there had been contact between trump's close associates, mr. trump's close associates, pardon me and russian intelligence. >> as of right now, as of ri

the battle over the travel ban continues while democratic senators continue to stone wall senator jeff sessions. senator ted cruz, a former solicitor general himself is here to respond to all that. a lot on the agenda for him coming up. the question before the court right now in san francisco is the temporary restraining order, is it valid or is it not? they're trying to decide that at the moment. >> melissa: president trump set to take to the podium any minute now in washington where he will address a gathering of police chiefs and sheriffs from all across the country. we'll bring that to you live as soon as it happens. >> bill: three judges debate the fate of the travel ban. the arguments have been made. how will they rule and what happens after they rule? plus this today. >> melissa: tornadoes ripped through new orleans damaging areas that had just recovered from hurricane katrina, more on the damage and the first step towards recovery next. >> it's bad. it was darkness, something blowing in the sky. next thing you know i'm in the bathtub and the roof and house collapsed. st, powerf

jeff, you get in here. you're a new york guy and know the history of politics. what is roger stone doing in this? what is manafort going? how come trump knows manafort. why are they all knowing each other is my question, to start with. >> you know, i spent a fair amount of time writing political satire, and when you list things like that, i can't answer that question. roger stone has been at donald trump's side. i remember him escorting trump onto a convention floor several conventions ago when he was going to run for president and we thought it was a joke. the question about paul manafort, who was engaged in helping prose, you mentioned soviet. it's funny i had that same instinct to call them soviets. prorussian ukraines. there's entanglement. one of the things that helped trump is the different skeins of this raise so many questions that it's hard to focus on any one strain and say that's what we have to question. the question i think really comes down to the senate republicans who have looked at trump as their instrument for getting a lot of good things done and have tended to overlook a lot o

trump campaign manager paul manafort who resigned, political adviser roger stone, who also left the campaign or businessman jeff carter had contact with russian intelligence. nunes was pressed on the issue this morning and whether those connections exist. >> there's investigations that the executive branch of government does and there's tphfations that the legislative branch of government does. as of right now we have no evidence, but we will continue to ask an look for evidence not only on the three americans named in that story but also any other american that has contact with rush officials. >> reporter: nunes did not rule out calling president trump's associates to testify on the hill. as you see at this hour the ranking democrat on that very powerful committee is giving his own news conference. he said earlier today that he felt they hadn't had a full briefing from the fbi so it was premature to make any conclusions about what may or may not be a connection between the associates and the russians. >> melissa: in the midst of all of that did we learn anything new about the resignation of national security a
