alice stewart and jimmy williams and senior white house reporter carrie brown. the speech will happen at 3:00, the state of the state, we're hearing that he's going to spend sometime at least talking about the bridge scandal. obviously it's not going to be the bulk of that speech, probably just a nod. should we see a different tone than we saw in that marathon on thursday press conference, carrie? >> it's quite possible. i think that chris christie sort of put himself out there in terms of taking all of the hits and taking the questions and going through it. that was really his one shot to be reflective and just let the media have at him. at a certain point we may see this today with the speeches he's going to perhaps turn more defiant and say i'm not going to let this get in the way of doing my job. i spent almost two hours answering questions. i'm happy to participate in any kind of investigation but i'm not going to be hamstrung by this. i imagine that's the tone we'll see from christie going forward. that seems to fit with his personality, which doesn't seem

joining me now are jimmy williams and joy reid. thank you both for being here tonight. you know, joy, even on a big night, the gop's disrespect for the president continues. what stood out for you? >> okay, so as i'm watching the state of the union speech and it was really good and i was also on twitter, i had my twitter thread open. as the president is talking about education, okay, governor bobby jindal of louisiana, supposedly the guy who said the gop needs to be the smart party not the stupid party. he tweeted that the obama administration is standing at the -- in front of the schoolhouse door, a reference to george wallace and specifically called out. >> and segregation back if the '60s blocking blacks from going in the door. >> exactly. called out eric holder, attorney general eric holder. i'm not sure how he got him into it. he said it's pretty ironic for the president to be talking about education when the obama administration and a.g. holder are making a stand at the schoolhouse door. so i then tweeted did bobby jindal just equate the obama administration to geo

delegation lawsuits against president jimmy carter's decision to terminate the defense treaty with taiwan without going hat in hand to the house and senate. associate justice william rehnquist wrote, the constitution is expressed as to the manner in which the senate shall participate in the ratification of a treaty it is silent as to that body's participation in the aggregation of a treaty and all the other recess appointment challenges that have been dreamed up all across the country. article 2 section ii clause ii is expressed to the manner of the senate participates in the confirmation of an ordinary permanent appointment. the next clause of the constitution and we are talking the constitution here the constitutional read that we do. the next clause negates that body's participation in the president's decision to sign a temporary commission to the pro forma session. i argue this against harry reid, when he started this silliness in 2007, it is an embarrassment to the senate as an institution, it is a waste of taxpayer money to light up the place to in deference to c-span to run their cameras for one minute to tell you is that these pro forma sessions their late
