for more than eight hours in an attempt to filibuster cia nominee john brennan senators ted cruz mike lee ron wyden lago rubio and saxby chambliss are among those that joined him on the floor senator paul has repeatedly asked officials can the government conduct drone strikes on americans on u.s. soil here is holder's response to the senator quote i suppose to imagine an extraordinary circumstance in which it would be necessary and appropriate for the president to authorize the military to use lethal force within the territory of the united states for example the president could conceivably have no choice but to authorize the military to use such force if necessary to protect the homeland and the circumstances of a catastrophic attack well this answer has raised many more questions earlier i was joined by mike reg's of reason magazine and i asked him if he finds holder's position on drone strikes toward american citizens to be troubling. we don't actually know if he's ruling out or not ruling out i think if you want to look at the exchange that was that sort of put the finest point on this it

just moments ago in an attempt to filibuster cia nominee john brennan all senators ted cruz mike lee and ron wyden are among those that also spoke out earlier i was joined by mike reg's of reason magazine and i asked him if he finds holder's position on drone strikes toward american citizens to be troubling. we don't actually know what he's ruling out or not ruling out i think if you want to look at the exchange that was sort of put the finest point on this it was when ted cruz senator ted cruz asked holder could you kill somebody on u.s. soil who did not pose an imminent threat because if you think back to early february and we saw that white paper from the department of justice about when targeted killing could be used there was a real imminence how soon violence could happen from a potential terrorist was not very well defined so crew said if it's not defined if we do if this person is just talking can you kill them holder's answer was i don't think that would be appropriate but what cruz was asking and what rand paul is asking is is it constitutional you know approach questions of approp

but between rand and marco rubio and ted cruz and mike lee, ron johnson, tim scott, south carolina, all participated last night. i think we've got a young, dynamic block of conservatives that are showing not only that they will stand up for what's good for the country, but seems to me that's good for them politically as well. the old guard have something to learn here. >> sean, something much more important than politics, i hope the house and senate leadership in the republican party will take a lesson from yesterday. i hope they will encourage the rand pauls, encourage the mike burgesses, for example, in the house or the louie gomers, encourage people to get up and take a risk and do something. they're not always going to be right, but their willingness to fight for what they believe in really is what makes a difference in once again creating a grass roots movement that can take this country back and move us back to a constitutional republic. >> sean: yeah, and he did talk about shredding the constitution. the original letter from eric holder to rand paul left the door wide open, if an

it is bipartisan and it is ron paul and mike lee who is helping him out and he was talking about this in a serious way. it is awesome. it is like the number one twitter hash tag trending and they were reading from the tweets, ted cruz, it was like reading live tweets on the senate floor. >> what have we become when adults are reading tweets? >> i prefer that to passing laws. >> and it is a conversation we haven't had. a lot of what he is doing is he he reminded the president of how he ran for president. he put himself out there. >> he is more bush than bush. >> he is more bush than bush. >> he is bush cubed. >> you don't have people -- you know me -- >> do i know you? >> you used to. >> the real you. gee here is my point. the right is the team that usually doesn't really have a problem with this sort of thing. don't you think they are show boating a little bit? >> joe, are you making a mistake. paul is a libertarian. i would not put him as a traditional conservative. i like drones. i agree with you. the argument thraw making can be made against the left who if bush was doing this woul

today by myself, jonathan stern and byron and city council john sack and mike martin and civil lot 337 associates, jack bear and ron nolts. again, quickly to bring you up to speed. this is what you have seen before. it should be familiar. it a points 1.7 million square foot of open office space and approximately 2000 square foot of retail space. as you have heard in the press yourself an announcement has been made about the first tenant for the project anchor brewing and we are excited about that potential and what it means for the project in terms of phasing for pier 38 and a good match for the city. infrastructure in the project is phased over time and privately funded and publically owned and paid for with the unique financing mechanism and we have shared with you in previous presentation. as part of an overview, port revenues, one of our endeavors is to increase the ports land value return for the site to recognize it's true asset value and take that forward over time to benefit the port as a whole. we do that through participation rent and through other structures you will see in a future slide and of course o

that includes senators rand paul, marco rubio, ted cruz, mike leigh, kelly ayotte, pat toomey, and ron. i've probably forgotten a few. let's not forget chris christie, who beat governor andrew cuomo 41% to 28% in a new poll just out and comes the closest in defeating hillary clinton in a head-to-head poll for you know, what the white house. let's talk about that. here now is our panel, blake zeff, salon.com politics editor. haley heath. and my pal mark simone, w.o.r. radio host. mark simone, i want to go with you. the genesis of this story was the rand paul filibuster about the use of drones overseas and here in america. and john mccain went ballistic. so did his pal lindsey graham. but john mccain starts walling them wacko and wacko birds. the people that were around rand paul around that. mike leigh, ted cruz. is there a change now? is john mccain too far out there and this is the new group that's going to run the senate and the gop? >> i don't know. i like rand paul. he's a very intelligent guy. he made some good points. but he does look -- i hate to say, he can look a little nutty.

that's senator mike lee of utah, continuing rand paul's work right now. it is still going on. joining us right now is senator ron wyden of oregon. he engaged senator paul in debate during today's filibuster. he is a member of the senate select committee on intelligence. thank you so much for being here tonight. >> thanks for having me again. >> so the talking filibuster is not much used anymore. we still have to show footage of fiction of "mr. smith goes to washington" in order to give people the idea. did this debate about congressional oversight and transparency on drones, did it get better today by use of this tactic? >> i think the american people certainly know more about the fundamental question, which is we have to strike a better balance, rachel, between protecting our security and protecting our liberty. i've just come off a two-year effort, made seven separate requests to get the obama administration to release these previously secret legal analyses which offer the justification for the drone debate. the reason i went to the floor today, i thought it was an opportune time to try to show that there is a

fellow republican senator ang others along with democrat ron wyden all have participated in the filibuster to this point. here is senator mikeee of utah questioning the attorney general's response to senator paul's questions. >> no one can reasonably look into this and decide who the government may kill with a draw renter the government may not care what the drone. lou: senator ted crews the tax is accusing the white house of threatening an outright power grab. >> and i would suggest that any time power is irrigated in one place in the ecutive that liberty is threatened. lou: senator of oregon, a democrat, took the floor to show support for the effort to get the white house to answer these very important questions. >> i havereat respect for this effort so really ask these kinds of questions, forced them to be debated on the floor. lou: and while the nomination is the focus of the filibuster, it was attorney-general eric : who was left to answer questions of the senate judiciary committee from the idea of killing american citizens with drones flying above american soil. fox news chief intelligence correspondent has our report

citizens on american soil he was then joined by tea party senators mike lead ted cruz marco rubio and pat toomey even democratic senator ron wyden joined in on the filibuster which continues this moment is full assault on the president's drone assassination program comes one day after attorney general eric holder confirmed senator senator rand paul two for senator rand paul excuse me that the white house does have the power to carry out lethal strikes against americans on american soil in a letter to senator paul obtained by mother jones attorney general holder writes as members of this administration and previously indicated the u.s. government has not carried out drone strikes in the united states and has no intention of doing so it is possible i suppose to imagine an extraordinary circumstance in which it would be sorry and appropriate under the constitution in a political law as the united states for the president to authorize the military use to use lethal force within the territory of the united states this new power assumed by the executive branch to kill american citizens should trouble all of us the fact that it's

. >> mike, i think perhaps the white house official who was telling our friend ron this was a joke maybet was somebody who visited the president not to do this because when i'm talking to senators, talked to a number of democrats who were spending time with the president yesterday and republicans who dined with him last week, to a person, they have been impressed by the president's effort and while they all say follow through will matter, the gesture of coming to them and spending time with them has been appreciated. it's not about having a glass of wine with the president or socializing with the president. it's about having a few minutes where you have the attention of the most powerful person in the world and you're able to, as a lawmaker yourself, get some of your thoughts across, get a sense of the president and when you talk to republicans, what i was struck by is even a couple of people who are aligned with the tea party of ron johnson and pat tummi thought about see ago president that surprised them. for democrats and speaking to them yesterday they were saying they had not seen t

ron, for the other stories making headlines this morning. >>> in the news right now, authorities are investigating the murder outside of dallas overnight, of the district attorney mikeeland and his wife. they were both shot dead in his home. >>> and the eiffel tower is opened again today after being evacuated last night following a bomb threat. no explosives were found. >>> if you hate working out like me, you may be able to blame your parents, researchers at iowa state university have found the brains' reaction to working out could be 50% genetic. >>> more bad news for pop star justin bieber, he's had his pet monkey detained in germany. they confiscated the monkey because bieber didn't have the right paperwork. >> you have the right paperwork for your monkey? >> he's registered, right? >> time now for the weather and ginger zee. >> i could have brought you one from nepal. contain your monkey. let's start in chicago, happy easter, everyone. a high will be 50 in chicago. we have a live look from this morning. temperatures in the 40s. right there, along the lakes. really, not a bad day at all. look at the cold air that's going to filter down in the north. denver goes

. >> ron allen in steubenville, thank you. >>> mike dewine is the attorney general of ohio., good morning to you. >> good morning. >> let's start with these new charges. are you trying to send a message? >> you know, the victim continues to be victimized. she has been victimized by the act itself. she's had to go through the court proceeding, but it's been horrible for her family to look at these things that have been posted, and so freedom of speech is fine, first amendment is wonderful, but these two individuals crossed the line. you cannot under ohio law threaten to kill someone. >> let me ask you this -- >> we're not going to tolerate it, and we're not going to put up with it. >> the defense attorney for one of these young women said in fact she does not know the victim and did not send the message to her and she says prosecutors have overcharged here because of the scrutiny. your response to that? >> my response is we're sick and tired of the victim being victimized. we have to protect the victim. we're going to take whatever action it takes to protect this young lady.

mike merrill, m-e-r-r-i-l-l. thank you. >> good evening, everyone. i'm ron rojdz.addition to what mr. merrill shared with you, as he said, we're still trying to define the scope of this cavern that's under the ground here. we're trying to determine what, if anything, we can do to try and get into the structure or determine whether we can even enter the structure or do anything with it. at this point, as the engineers will share with you in a few moments, this is a very complex situation. it's a very complex collapse. it's continuing to evolve. meaning the ground is continuing to collapse. they can't give us any answers right now on when we can get in there and if we can get in there. i do want to share with you, we have the deputy here tonight that was the one that went in and rescued the brother who was attempting to rescue mr. bush. i do want to bring up deputy duvall. >> my name's douglas duvall with the hillsborough county sheriff's department. i was the first one on the scene as far as the first responders go. the basics of it, when i arrived, the family was o

mike lieu free from utah. they came to the floor and it was sort of a changing of the guard. and they represented the divisions within the republican party. and democrats, ronhite, udall. senator leahy who is chair of the judiciary committee have expressed concerns about what the rules are. why can't we know what the rules are for this vast killing program. >> it's important to note those aren't just younger senators. all the senators, rubio, paul, lee, toomey. they all came in representing the establishment. >> but i also think what's important that happened this past week, not to put a completely positive spin on it, but there was something important about democracy at work. whether you think the actors were genuine within themselves. there say civil war going on in the republican party. and that's kind of what you're referring to. and i think it was showing up this past week. in very important ways not just generational. but also about these fundamental issues of who are awe. and what's the real base and who do we speak to. >> that is the question. you set a new guard. you noted that the people that stood with rams to invoke the hash tag were largely tea
