general mukasey said the senate has its own internal rules. the only way to get changes in the senate is tit-for-tat reciprocity. until you get the democrats to see what the world will look like when the republicans have a non-filibustered senate, they will never be persuaded to go back to how it was. maybe byron is right, in the end, republicans like having a non-filibuster world so much they never go back to it, too. in the longer run it, it is better for our republic to have a filibuster rule in the senate. mr. mukasey: until the democrats get a dose of their own medicine, they will not learn a lesson. but i think wiser heads may prevail. >> other questions? >> thanks. there was some discussion about the electoral college. and of course, president-elect trump will not be president-elect until the official vote on december 19. -- electoral vote on december 19. there is a petition going around about electorates changing their vote for hillary clinton and the penalty is a small fine in each state and the clinton people would be glad to pay tho

attorney general michael mukasey. look, we all know rudy really well. mr., i thought mitt romney who i supported would have been a great president. i have been very disappointed with him and how he has handled and the comments he made about donald trump. i for the life of me cannot understand -- you know, here was rudy out on the campaign trail, out campaigning, you know, on the plane with him all over the country, and apparently he and romney are being considered. i don't get that. >> me neither. and romney, remember, is a guy who shh ririveled under questio by candy crowley. if you can standard up to that, how are you going to stand up to vladimir putin? >> the one speech in particular, it was brute ool, eviscerating donald trump. why would anybody think about bringing this guy in and how would you ever expect him to be loyal in light of how he acted? >> well, look, i think those are good questions. i mean certainly mitt romney is extremely qualified from a lot of different positions. people have talked about him for veterans affairs, to maybe clean that

mukasey, comment on jeff sessions for attorney general.s hard to imagine a more harder turn away from eric holder and loretta lynch of the obama administration to someone who has taken a very tough line on immigration and has been in the senate for quite some time. >> well, i think it's a terrific appointment, and it's hard to think of -- it's impossible for me to think of anyone who would have been better. this is somebody who knows the department by virtue of having dealt with it as a member of the judiciary committee for many years. he's a former u.s. attorney and somebody who's firmly committed to the mission of the department and to upholding the rule of law. i think it's an outstanding appointment and i think it will be well received, should be well received in congress and within the department itself. >> john, you certainly had to hit the ground running not in this exact situation during a transition but give us a sense if you're getting ready to take over an sergeant agency like th what are the conversations you're having, the sor

can, mukasey: sure, they sure,ven --mr. goldberg: they can cap -- judge mukasey: sure, they can come and given the complexity, i think it is important to preserve that. at times, confirmation hearings lasted less than an hour. it was a long time ago, to be sure, but, i mean, it was considered insulting to put substantive questions to a nominee. all of that ended when the supreme court, again, with the active cooperation of the legislature started expanding the range of cases, and the nature of cases that it would take to the point where political issues, instead of being resolved within the legislature to compromise and back-and-forth were handed off to the courts, the courts, of course, who would say bring the store biggest problems. we are here to solve everybody's problems national case, too big or too small, in that -- no case too big or too small, in and out by 5:00 p.m. that trend has continued, party much uninterrupted. given that, and affected be a long time before we pared back the scope of cases in the nature of c

michael mukasey first. >> i think that would be a bad idea.ught to be a top to bottom review of what happened there both with respect to the e-mails and with respect to the foundation and with respect to the investigation. there ought to be be a complete review. they can then decide whether prosecution is warranted or not but there needs to be a full accounting first. >> what do you think? >> well, first of all, these are very different situations and the e-mail situation has at least facially been investigated thoroughly, the fbi director comey has indicated that he has had a strong and significant look at that and he came to a conclusion, but what i understand are ongoing investigations of a variety of other issues by as many as four or five u.s. attorneys related to the clinton foundation, i think those obviously deserve continuity and the american people expect thorough investigation and then the kind of assessment that michael mukasey has indicated it appropriate and we have to learn to call a crime a crime and if there has been a crime,

we'll talk to michael mukasey. former u.s. attorney general under president george w. bush. >> donald trump is not looking at someone's political affiliation, whether they support him or not. he wants the best, the brightest, the most qualified people not only to fill his administration but give him advice on policies and opinions they have on how to enact an agenda successfully. i just snapped a photo and got an estimate in 24 hours. my insurance company definitely doesn't have that... you can leave worry behind when liberty stands with you™ liberty mutual insurance i use what's already inside me to reach my goals. so i liked when my doctor told me i may reach my blood sugar and a1c goals by activating what's within me... with once-weekly trulicity. trulicity is not insulin. it helps activate my body to do what it's supposed to do... release its own insulin. trulicity responds when my blood sugar rises. i take it once a week, and it works 24/7. it comes in an easy-to-use pen and i may even lose a little weight. trulicity is a once-weekly injectable prescription medici

. >> i would like to follow up the point michael mukasey made about our national security, one of the places in the constitution where the president is in charge of that with or without congress accepting treaties and so forth but my question is our national security, the military is in trouble. and the security of our people. >> i read books no one has read about this. >> a lot of things, the president has the constitutional initiative, it doesn't stick unless congress agrees. he said i'm closing guantÁnamo bay. and it will remain open and franchising france. and a lot of these powers in the president's hands to start with but even with surveillance, congress and these amendments in firmer footing. and presidential power on president trump's part. and president's foreign policy, his major legacy is going to be to make peace with iran. the termination of the iran agreement, president trump could reverse president obama's choice to recognize cuba. that is that a presidential power, but congress's cooperation, the longer-term problems of the obama years saw a dramatic cut in spending on

honoring, justice scalia, judges -- chief justice roberts edith , jones, former attorney general michael mukasey, peter teal, and senator tom cotton. that brings us to today's lecture. it will be my honor to introduce senator ben sasse. after graduating from harvard college where he went on a wrestling scholarship and earned a history phd at yale. he worked for private equity firms before becoming the president of midland university which he pulled out of difficult financial straits. then he ran for the senate. since he has been elected senator, he has not only done a couple of things that i will mention quickly, but he is also -- has also moonlighted. he has driven for uber and my understanding is he has a five-star rating. [laughter] [applause] >> in addition to his bio and his driving, i would add that senator sasse, despite his youth, exemplifies the idea our founders had for the senate. some wise heads will be focused on the good of the country and who would look towards the ways in which our republic needed to meet the ever adjusting challenges of governing a free people. i think the senat

of the bush administration and michael mukasey all came out and said what he did was wrong. >> go aheadjason. >> there is a lot of hypocrisy to go around. the clinton partisans are upsets because the leaks are hurting clinton but and then you have a media that is upset about the leaks because -- this idea that they are upset about the existence of these leaks -- who the leaks -- >> i can't help but remember when it came out after many years with nobody knowing who deep throat was, the famous source for woodward and bernstein, particularly woodward, whose investigation brought down the president of the united states, a republican, richard nixon. and it came out that the guy, we just learned this a few years ago, way after the fact, that the guy was a senior fbi official named mark felt. there is a picture of him on the screen right now. do you recall at the time there be being indignation anywhere that someone from the fbi was leaking? i don't. am i wrong? >>. no i think the press covered this story but as i said in the absence of any substance about what this was about, on friday we did

michael mukasey actually attacked him from the other direction saying he should have pushed further to indict mrs. clinton or recommend charges. but, i do wonder how this could have played differently if hillary clinton had just said right out of the gate, this is unexpected, some people are going to question the timing, this is what director comey felt he had to do to make sure there was no allegations of some sort of coverup. we will cooperate as much as we possibly can. we do not anticipate any change in outcome. let's get back to the election. that's not what she decided to do. they decided to go on the attack, shoot the messenger and, yes, they have rallied the media to their cause, which is not particularly hard to do. >> and the base. >> and the base of their cause. >> wait a minute, the base is rallying, why is the enthusiasm falling off? >> i was going to point to that. that enthusiasm gap, we have to be careful of that. i remember in 2012 watching very closely the mitt romney vs. obama campaign and there supposedly mitt had all the enthusiasm on his side and, therefore, you k

i'm not totally surprised but that's only because i ran into michael mukasey, the former attorney generalalk to him and his looking at his perspective in terms of protocols and the way things could have gone, then you also read bill of "the wall street journal" who yesterday said the attorney general should have either backed away completely or had the courage of convictions and told jim comey not to send a letter, and she did neither. >> that is a study. that means there's an attempted coverup. with two independent investigations, the e-mail server and the foundation. do the american people understand that there are two investigations, in your opinion or do they think it's one big clinton corruption and greed speak with i think probably the latter. i thought paul ryan was good on your show a half an hour ago where he was explaining what it was like to live through the '90s with the clintons. i do think scandals over all come with you think clinton's you might think scandals defeated word association. about three weeks ago "usa today" did a report that said america's top 10 fears, overall

as a trained lawyer who's read the statute and observed prior cases i must tell you i'm with judge mukaseyce between extremely careless and gross negligence. i say this as a lawyer, not an advocate. i say it as somebody who is very confused about everything now because i don't think we have anywhere near all the facts. bill: so you're still not sure comey made the right call in july? >> i'm suggesting that i think he probably made the wrong call from my perspective as a lawyer, but that being said, the new information that monica cited that is coming out is to me troubling but not dispositive. bill: monica? >> well, we're in this position today for two reasons. one, mrs. clinton made the deliberate decision when she began her term as secretary of state to install, private, unsecured, non-government server. we're in this situation because the fbi was not able to conduct proper investigation to begin with prior to the opening of the election. bill: "new york times" fold. clinton 45, trump 42. that same poll margin of error 3%. >> right. bill: in that case that is a dead-heat. we're trying to

florida mukasey has won. restill don't know what's happening with donald trump.te candidates are doing in these same states that donald trump is not doing on a national level and they are way ahead of him as a result because they are campaigning on a hopeful, optimistic agenda. good for conservatives to learn from this night that that message still sells. that's what still sells in the republican party. >> okay, marc, donald trump is doing pretty well. he is hanging tough in all of these states and richard tonight, aren't democrats a little worried as they look at this map? >> we always thought this was going to be as they look at the map? >> we always thought it was going to be a close election. >> not that close. >> true. what you're going to see tonight is the difference in enthusiasm and a turnout machine. the numbers that i've been given is in florida, they had a million latinos early voted, two times what it was in 2012. while donald trump might have enthusiasm on his side, what the democrats have in ohio, in hamilton county, ohio, is they have a ground gam
