simon marks is a chief correspondent with "feature story news." i want to go to robert, i'm watching poor sean spicer on the nanny cam basically being watched every minute by the president. the president clearly wants spicer and priebus to tell top intelligence officials to squash this. there's no secrets. he's trying to shut down any interests in his russian relations such as they were. >> not only a message to the media, a message to the congressional republicans. nunes from california certainly a major ally for the white house. he's out in front defending the administration. but the bigger question, chris, what are these senate republicans going to do? senator burr, others on the intelligence committee who are moves forward with an investigation on russia. that the view of the white house has not stopped those investigations from moving forward. >> so it's happening. let me go to greg. you're right on top of this story, greg. where's it going, this story? what's the word for you? >> well, i think, you know, as robert just alluded to, the big qu

simone sanders is back with us. markback with us, and now joining the fun, joseph barelli. do you think donald trump should be upset with how this travel ban was rolled out? >> i think partially so. any time you are still explaining away some policy you've enacted four or five days afterwards to try to clarify what it says, what it doesn't say, what the narrative around the situation around it is, i think you can make a case that it could have been rolled out better. that said, by whom? >> certainly by the administration. certainly by the administration. on the flip side, though, there does seem to be -- >> what john is asking, though, is does donald trump need to take responsibility for that? >> i think maybe perhaps some people in his cabinet, some people in the administration might want to rethink the strategy that they've had in pushing out policies. this is something they knew would be somewhat controversial. they could have done a better job in sort of conflating it with things that president obama had done before,

mark name jesus's brothers. as well as james, there's joses, judas and simon alongside at least two unnamed sisters. but exactly whose offspring these other children are is still the subject of debate. >> for catholics, there is that emphasis on mary's virginity. she was not only a virgin at the time of jesus's conception and birth but also afterwards. that's why i like to think of james, the brother of jesus as probably a child from joseph's prior marriage before he married mary. >> but not all christians are in agreement. >> protestants would say there are other children that are the biological kids of mary and joseph, in which case, jesus would be the older brother. and perhaps other siblings of jesus would have looked up to him. >> matthew 1:25 says literally joseph was not knowing her in the carnal sense until she gave birth until jesus. now any normal reading of that sentence implies she went on to have more children after that, and his brothers and sisters are in fact his brothers and sisters. >> the bible tells us very little about the early life of jesus. >> the gospels really fast forward
