. >> chuck, also president obama last week ordered the deployment of more troops to iraq.st isis continues. i feel like we talk about it every week. there are more troops in iraq to help assist the iraqi forces. does the u.s. have a complete strategy when it comes to regaining that territory that the militants captured? >> no. the announcement this week of the additional advisers military advisers, 400 or so is essentially an acknowledgment by the administration that the current strategy is not working. they don't have a new strategy yet. they know they will need some advisers to try to help create some coalitions between the iraqi army and sunni tribes that are not aligned with isis. that's the short-term goal with this new deployment. the larger strategy it's clear that president obama is not yet comfortable with what he has, or the options that are in front of him. interestingly, this is a topic this morning former president george w. bush made it clear that there should be more boots on the ground perhaps as many as 30,000. i'll be curious to hear what president obama'

chuck. thank you. >>> president obama has signed the usa freedom act into law. it's a new verdict of the patriot act which passed after september 11. the debate over the new law brought the senate to a halt and pitted two key players against each other. we want to give you a look at why that is a case. under the patriot act the nsa collected and stored your records. the nsa kept tabs on who you called but not what you said. now the phone companies will be responsible for storing those records. the nsa needs a court order in order to see them. senator and presidential candidate rand paul, however says that is still not good enough. during debate he forced the programs to shut down. his supporters are thrilled but he's infuriated senate colleagues there that includes the man in charge of the senate right now, majority leader mitch mcconnell. paul put mcconnell in a political bind, they say, that they are both from kentucky and their relationship is now strained. but here's the subcontext. the patriot act has been renewed with little debate before but in 2013, edwa

chuck: the gamesmanship could be complicated. supporters of obama's agenda are optimistic because as in the house, enough votes have been cast already in favor of the notion of fast track. if those votes can hold, then what should happen as it did in the house, there should be enough votes for that. but democrats are still insisting we're not giving up on this trade assistance program. we've got to have it. if we can't have it in the same package, you have to promise we'll get it another way. there's a big debate, how do they get the assurance they'll get that if the fast track is passed alone. carrie: chuck, what are you hearing about unions leaning on democratic members on these issues? chuck: they're pounding on them. the unions have been very, very forceful like no issue i can remember, vehemently against fast track. afl-cio wrote a letter saying we want you to vote against the trade assistance program which they've championed in the past, because that's how important the issue is. gwen: you were at a press conference that nancy pelosi gave this w

chuck, the obama administration in arguing against the state ban said this, i'm reading it from pete'sote, "they were unconstitutional, arguing that they impose concrete harms on same-sex couples and send the incapable inescapable message that same sex couples and their children are second class citizens." so this is a big victory for the administration. >> it is a big victory for the administration. it's going to, what will be interesting to watch is what is going to be the fallout, particularly among many republicans and many conservatives in particular ivan evangelicals that have been fighting this state by state through the years as well as in the supreme court. where are they going to come down? i think there's a couple presidential candidates that we're going to find out immediately as pete williams mentioned, there are 14 states right now that ban same-sex marriage. well two of those 14 states are led by governors who are running for president, ohio's john kasich, louisiana's bobby jindal. you'll find out how much they're ready to move on or not move on on this culture fight, if

obama administration and the congress. in the senate on tpa, trade promotion, the top three senate leaders all of prose the president -- all opposed the president. harry reid, chuck schumer, dick durbin. it says something. when you are trying to rely on the republicans to carry the senate, but also put up approximately 200 votes in the house on trade promotion authority, and obama can only produce somewhere between 18 and 25 -- there's something fundamentally amiss as far as relationships on both sides. not just with the republicans. some of that is a result, i think of the first two years of obama being so overwhelmingly democratic in the house and the senate. 60 votes in the senate, a huge majority for nancy pelosi in the house, so the obama administration did not have to work at the way bill clinton did or president reagan did. building those trusting relationships, i think, are fundamental to getting things done. susan: i completely agree with you. i would just give the obama side of this that the republicans were not that interested in building trusting relationships with him. i love your phrase of sensitive ecosystems. what matters more -- your super pac or
