senator rob portman came to the senate floor to talk about the circumstances surrounding the death of college student otto warmbier who died in custody in north korea. >> in the context of the ongoing negotiations with north korea there has been a lot of discussion in the media about otto warmbier. otto warmbier was a young man from my hometown of cincinnati, ohio. this is an emotional issue for me because the process of bringing him home i got to know his family very well. he was the young man with a lot of promise, 22 years old, college student at the university of virginia, he was pulled out of the line at the airport, here he was, kindhearted college kid found himself a prisoner in north korea. he was there for 18 months. his determined and sentence were appalling, unacceptable by any standards. at some point soon after being sentenced to 15 years of hard labor, from what we know, he suffered a severe brain injury. what happened? we may never know the details. we do know one thing. he was severely mistreated. who did the north korean tell about the fact he had this brain-damaged?

. >> reporter: sherrod brown and rob portman from warmbier's home state of ohio say kim jong-un should not be let off the hook. >> never should meet with north korea without bringing up the issue of otto warmbier over and over. >> reporter: warmbier was sentenced to prison in 2016 for allegedly stealing a poster from a hotel in pyongyang. warmbier's family says he was brutally tortured. in december the family was awarded $500 million in a lawsuit against north korea. anne-marie? >> marc liverman in new york. thank you so much, marc. >>> michael cohen is expected back on capitol hill next week for more testimony. cohen spent three days getting grilled by lawmakers this week. democrats say he provided information that could lead to additional witnesses. paula reid reports. >> reporter: michael cohen spent eight hours answering questions behind closed doors. >> not much i can say. >> reporter: lawmakers and federal prosecutors are still digesting his bombshell public testimony. in vietnam, president trump blasted his former personal attorney. >> he lied a lot, but it was very interesting

gop lawmakers called out the president including rob portman of otto warmbier's home state of ohio who said we must remember otto warmbier and never let north korea off the hook for what they did to him. the white house tried to walk back the president's comments and the president tweeted i never like being misinterpreted but especially when it comes to otto warmbier and his great family. i got him out along with three others. the previous administration did nothing and he was taken on their watch. of course i hold north korea responsible. the us military will announce the annual joint military exercises, with south korea every spring, will no longer be held. the reason, the cost of wargames keeps going up as the threat level from north korea is going down. officials say canceling the drills has nothing to do with this week at summit. >> let's bring in gordon chang, great to have you with us tonight. i want to start with you on the us no longer having large military exercises. what do you think of the explanation and is a good idea? >> we have to continue large-scale exercises. at this

susan collinss and rand paul and romney and pat toomey and jerry moran and rob portman.een at the white house? >> you saw the president saying it does not matter and he'll vee ve ve veto. the president didn't want to be embarrassed here having the house and the senate going against him on this. he wants to divide the two and having them not coming to his desk to veto. in the end, it will matter because there won't be enough vote to over ride the veet tto. but, you know you can imagine the opponents will go to court and say look not only congress refused to authorize the money that he is choosing to spend here in direct of his will. congress voted to say they don't approve of the way he's going about this. this will be an argument that you will hear made in court as this fight continues. >> peter, you have covered four presidents now, have you seen anything like this? >> well, at a time when a president's own party stands against him on an important issue, yes. this is a fundamental issue. this is not about the border. these 12 republicans are for him on that policy quest

david: according to rob portman we will not get a deal unless we can them down on ip. do you agree?ree a lot with what senator portman said. intellectual property is a component of this larger deal. there's no question we want to see china take enforcement action, criminalize certain procedures with respect to patents and copyright issues. it is bigger than that. the issue of forced technology also china's industrial policies in terms of tax references for state dominated sectors. there is a lot at stake so we do need more specificity from the chinese. i think we will get some of that in the market access area in terms of banking insurance and even in other areas. there is still at the heart of this a question of where is china's state-controlled economy going? is it going to move to more market-based reform economy and deal with structural issues that ambassador lighthizer has put out there or is china going to keep their promises they and then will be difficult because it will be up to implementation and enforcement. david: if we get a strong agreement like intellectual property,

now you have members of his own party including senator rob portman from ohio where the warmbier family is based speaking out against the president saying this is simply unacceptable. >> yeah. imagine that. the president contradicting himself. i thought the family statement was pretty reserved given everything they've been through. thank you. i want to get to another big story we're following. thedilemma. will they consider impeachment? what's jump started this discussion is that many democrats believe michael cohen's testimony pointed to criminal behavior on the part of the president. and this morning after nearly 30 hours of testimony before congress this week, they want him back for more. >> i'm committed to telling the truth, and i will be back on march 6th to finish up. there's more to discuss. >> meanwhile in a new interview with the president, fox news's sean hannity claims that cohen told him personally that he never told trump about those hush money payments. here's how the president responded. >> i can tell you personally he said to me at least a dozen times that he made the d

right now if you look at the list of key undecided snores, people like rob portman, ted cruz.ey would all like to see the change but aren't necessarily ideally constitutionally aligned. what it underscores here is the republicans as we've seen over the past few weeks have really, really struggled with this issue. we know it's going to pass. we don't know by how many. >> we appreciate the latest there. it's embarrassing for the president. there was a yemen resolution saying get the united states out of any involvement with saudi arabia. but this one's on his signature issue. you heard him it. was not quite factual. there's a legitimate debate about that. but the president wants to go into the campaign strong, i'm going to build it no matter what. even established republicans are saying look what i have to do to fight for my wall. >> that's why this is such a rebu rebuke. one thing he has been able to do is keep his party in line. he'll at least be able to keep them quiet. this is immigration. so to get pushback and have to vito, get your party to vote down what is your signatur

i joined forces with rob portman, republican from ohio, and sheldon whitehouse and at the time, kellyput a bill forward for a blueprint. i remember senators patting us on the head. >> really? >> people didn't understand how bad it was and how quickly addicted people were to opioids and it was legal prescriptions a lot of them were addicted to. that's where we started and there is a bigger realization for opioids and all drugs. i used to say we wanted to be efficient like a business. we are not a business in one important way. we don't like to see repeat customers. >> yeah. >> the way you stop repeat customers in the criminal justice system is by making sure people get treatment. >> you have a republican champion in terms of big pharma. that's chuck grassley. you said big pharma companies think they own washington. he and you are on the same page on a lot of this stuff which might be surprising to a lot of the american public. what should the american people expect you and senator grassley to do together to get signed into law? >> they should expect the bills which is just legislation

joining me the republican senator from ohio, senator rob portman. thank you for coming in. you have been fighting this closure since it was announced. you teamed up with your democratic colleague sherrod brown to try to come together to find some resolution to. stop it. its closure today means what for your state? >> it's a punch in the gut for that area. those workers, that community has worked hard to be productive for general motors and now general motors is turning on them. our goal is very simple, which is we need a plant there that is making automobiles and general motors ought to put a new product there. if the chevy cruze isn't selling, they ought to give us a new product. i hope this will still happen. they say they're going to make 20 new electric car models in the next five years and the rumor is those may be in china. let's make sure one of them at least is in lordstown. this would be the first time in almost 100 years that general motors was not assembling vehicles in ohio. think about that. they have other plants in ohio. they make transmissions in ohio, but t

and i think that rob portman is right. we can't be nacve here. and i hope that this is not something that we hyperfocus on because we also have to move forward. we have to move forward in a politically agnostic way in order to neutralize. >> i think that matt hit the nail on the head. the president should not be taken north of this man especially when we know better. his advisors know better. his own people know better.is not even a partisan thing for him to take the guys word. i am pleasantly surprised he walked away. especially given the domestic issues he's facing at home. he probably would've done better with the deal. but walking away actually is probably getting as much praise because people are not going to criticize a deal that came out of it. they're saying he stopped short of making a bad deal and -- >> also shows he was not impulsive where people assumed he would be. especially when it came to delivering a campaign promise. if you sign something and it kind of was a piece like deal with somewhat of a lesser nuclear rise to north korea,

let's go to rob portman and how that meeting went with the president. i understand the. 'a standing ovation when he entered the room. >> he did. he got a standing ovation. he always does when he enters that room. it's the republican senate. he did a good job. he talked about healthcare, by the way. just heard your report. he said that republicans ought to be for protecting people with pre-existing conditions. i couldn't agree with him more. that's the consensus among republicans. the question is not about pre-existing conditions. we agree on that. the question is about the high costs that have been associated with the affordable care act and how do we provide better access to people and lower costs. >> neil: if the president and your colleagues, sir, are interested -- the justice department following up on a texas law to get rid of the affordable care act, you don't have anything yet in its place. so you could be behind a rock and a hard place. >> yeah, it will take awhile, as you know. i don't know that this will make its way to the supreme court even before the end of

kentucky, mike lee of utah, lamar alexander of tennessee, mitt romney, pat toomey of pennsylvania, rob portman of ohio, roger wicker of mississippi, marco rubio of florida and row blount of missouri. all voicing against the president along with every democrat. it is a strong bipartisan rebuke of president trump's plan. congress has overturned the national emergency declaration that would have provided funding for the president's proposed border wall. he asked the house for the house said no. then he declared a national emergency. now congress has said no again. but next, the promises he will veto. we have team fox coverage. john roberts reporting from the white house. mike emanuel reporting live from capitol hill. mike? >> there were attempts by some senate republicans to cut a deal with the president to see if they could limit future national emergencies. sources say they were noter into where the president stood in some of these proposals offered to him. so here's why utah senator mitt romney was a no today. >> i'm voting in favor of the resolution. it's not about the balance of power. it's

a lot of discontent and you have rob portman doing what he did really sends a message that the presidentes, this is one issue where he's angry and focused on it. i think it is indicative. >> kasie, 12 means what? 12 people comfortable enough to vote against the president. how many in that caucus were really against him on this? >> i certainly think it is those three. mitch mcconnell was against him. he said before. he just agreed to go along and try to convince to go with the president because he did not want the government to shutdown again. it would have been a -- senator cornyn is in the same boat trying to do what the leadership wants h i am him to do. mcconnell coming out of these lunches, it dmouoes not feel he making a hard sell. he knows where his people are. that's what he's extraordinary good at and he recognized it is a huge problem. >> sarah fagan and even they're going to have tough decisions like tillis and gardner. let me read you sass's statement. he's the most surprising. >> today's resolution does not fix anything because the root of the problem can't be fixed with bare

you would expect the susan collins and lisa murkowskis and ben sasse's of the world, rand paul, rob portman just got added to vote yes. you wouldn't expect these names, so is there a certain senator who is surprising you the most and who else are you really going to be watching for? >> well, brooke, i'm not surprised by any of the names you mentioned. i'm really, frankly, shocked that there are not more republican members of congress who aren't voting for this resolution. >> really? >> there is an emergency. the emergency is the presidential assault on congress's power of the purse authority under article 1 of the constitution. that is the emergency. as far as i can tell, the loyalty here is to the constitution, not to the president. the president is taking defense dollars, military construction dollars and moving them for a nondefense purpose. that breaks the law. there's all sorts of problems with this thing. i wrote the military construction bill before i left congress, so i know a little bit about this. if you're a senator and you're going to vote against this resolution, understand tha

rob portman now voting against the president. >> dana: your daily briefing starts now.es. airlines are scrambling to rebook passengers after the boeing 737 max 8 and 9 planes are grounded. and beto o'rourke ends a road trip with a stop in iowa. yes, folks, he's running. and jessie smollett pleading not guilty to a hate crime. we begin on capitol hill where any minute the senate will vote on the president trump's measure to block the national emergency.

those 12 include people like marco rubio and rob portman, people who are up for re-election like susan collins, lisa murkowski. mitt romney, lamar alexander, roy blunt who's a member of the republican leadership and rand paul the conservative, mike lee and other conservatives and a kansas republican jerry moran. these republicans not comfortable with the pitch that the white house was making behind the scenes, the president was making publicly urging them to stick with him, worried about the precedent this will set. the president is faced with the first veto of his presidency. that will lead the house vote in the coming days to override his veto. they are short of a veto override in the house as well. that ultimately means it will be up to the courts to decide whether or not the president has the legal authority to move forward with this emergency declaration, to move money around to fund his border wall, but brooke, significant bipartisan majorities in both chambers rebuking the president on this key issue that he's campaigned on so hard, brooke. >> manu, thank you. that's the latest

others like rob portman and lamar alexander, what do you take from their move?it's not as simple it was constitutional. a tricky nuance question and i have clients on both sides of it. i had senator cruz who voted to support the president's position on this and it comes down on article one and national emergency act passed in 1976 and every president since then used it to declare a national emergency applied in the situation. senator cruz said his belief on the border and in february alone 76,000 detainees and 1700 families came across the border with a child that could have been -- that was not their own but claimed it was their own, he said this is an emergency. because of that that is really what it gets down to. why senator cruz agreed to vote yes on this he got a commitment from the president to reform the national emergency act that provides a hundred different situation and specifically that allow you to declare an emergency and that is too much and what he said we need to reform this. >> but have other clients who did the opposite? >> i did. in the case

senator rob portman of ohio who is in ohio today likely to be with the president pressing him not tothis and something that could really affect the economy of ohio if the president chooses to do it. >> you have some reporting on this, exclusive reporting about an internal white house report. we know the president's insight on trade. the u.s. gets the short end and he doesn't like tariffs. in this case, he would be standing up to the europeans. every automaker would be impacted in some way, shape or form. if he just assumed that we would declare a national security threat and the president imposes broad, sweeping import tariffs you would see them increase from 2,000 to $7,000. more than anything the country likes certainty and predictability and they're just not finding much these days. they don't want to have to have every month a change. >> the point auto executives make is there's no such thing as an all-american car. american cars use foreign parts and foreign cars use american parts. so american brand cars are going to feel it if the president imposes tariffs on foreign car manuf

today, this from republican senate homeland security committee member rob portman. >> i support his plan for it. on the other hand, the way the president has chosen to fund part of it through a national emergency -- i think that's the wrong way to go. one, i think we'll set a bad precedent. in other words, future presidents would be able to use a national emergency going against the will of congress for other issues. save a green new deal. second, it's going to get tied up in the courts. which i think everybody acknowledges. >> marie: meantime, politico is reporting that president trump is doing little to halt this rebuke which will likely lead to the first veto he will cast as president. the report says, "despite previous warnings, the g.o.p. lawmakers could put themselves in great jeopardy by defying him. wavering senators say trump is not directly lobbing them to stick with him." brian, we are going to see this vote. yesterday on "benson & harf" judge nap said he thought tender republicans would vote with the democrats in the senate. that would his number. we have a number of republic

senator rob portman of ohio, actually, which is otto warmbier's home state, warned trump not to be naive about the, what he called the brutal nature of the north korean regime. the and the former senator rick santorum said trump's statement was reprehensible. even those people who are clearly on his side find yesterday's statement a little hard to take. >> bill, always good to see you. thank you, sir. bill neely for us in hanoi, vietnam. just this hour, the 11th major democrat announcing a run for the white house, jay inslee is the first governor to announce this year he's the first candidate to make climate change his leading issue. he's not the only one on the trail this hour. kamala harris is in las vegas. elizabeth warren is in iowa. cory booker is in south carolina. we're talking about the contenders next. you're watching msnbc. hey, save. this round is on me. hey, can you spot me? come on in! find your place, today, with silver sneakers... included with many medicare plans. call the number on the screen now or visit getsilversneakers.com but if something happened to you... you need

rob portman, mitt romney, others spoke out. but anybody facing a tough race on the republican side no, i will stick with this guy. >> they did and i think that's an important stat you just named. they're getting flak from republicans who believe trump is overstepping his boundaries. i think what in moment is showing us too is even though republicans have criticized democrats and president obama in the past for his executive overreach, they're willing to overreach themselves. so i think a lot of republicans are uneasy about what democrats will do down the line and that's why we saw some of the defectors. but it's not enough, trump will override with the veto and he gets to say look at all of the people who voted with me, they're in my corner and i'm in their corner. that could matter in the next election. >> nick, what strikes you from the president's remarks today? >> he didn't mention his own party once, he brought the democratic led effort to embarrass him. >> 12 republican senators voted against him, 13 republican house memb

david: i talked to rob portman, the senator from ohio who will be meeting with the president this afternoon. he said he does not believe they will do a deal unless there is substantive change on both intellectual property and on the subsidies issue, which he admits are difficult. we believe the chinese will make those substantive changes? question., the big we have moved away from the idea that the trump administration would agree to a big purchase order for soybeans and aircraft. we hear this from bob lighthizer regularly that they want serious structural changes in china. the question of whether the chinese live up to their commitments is only going to be something we will be able to answer in the years to come. that is why lighthizer and others are putting attention on enforcement. the enforcement mechanism is the toughest part of the deal. it is one of the hardest issues to resolve. it will be the last issue resolved. david: thank you for reporting. i want to go back to london. i mentioned earlier the chancellor. let's look at what he had to say about the economy and brexit. frank, last

. >> jerry moran of kansas, roy blount of missouri, rob portman of ohio, mitt romney of utah, marco rubio of florida, rand paul of kentucky, roger wicker of mississippi and lamar alexander of tennessee. those are the 12 republicans who voted in support of the resolution. president trump has promised in all caps on twitter to veto this as soon as he gets the chance. >> let's give a "w" to donald trump on this. i can't stand him but he's so brilliant. basically at the end of the day he gets to say in the next election, i'm not giving up. he gets to run against the republicans. i'm the only guy that pounds my fist and he used the wrong strong yesterday, i salute those strong raspberry. >> i happen to agree because who is thrilled to be able to use that veto right now. he's taking it out in his spin world to build the wall. he is willing to do everything for security. so in donald trump world, i agree, it is a win for him. >> we're going to continue this conversation in a moment. i always enjoy a good pile on donnie. >> coming up, president trump appeared to issue a warning that his supporter

some of them, i was more surprised by, like senator rob portman here in ohio. he made the right decision in his vote and i do think what the president did was in line with the law. he followed the law that was put in place by congress. it's ridiculous they would say anything otherwise, saying this is going against the constitution. they're wrong. i think not only will the veto go through but we will see that as this continues to go through the courts as well. charles: ultimately, i think we will be able to get the judicial clarification on this, maybe even going to the supreme court. so we'll know whether or not it's constitutional or not. i'm not sure if any of these folks will come back and say i was wrong. but looking ahead, we've got budgets coming up, we have some other issues coming up that do you think other lawmakers on the republican side will be now more emboldened to go against the president based on their own individual ideology? >> well, i would hope that that's not how any lawmaker ever votes, based on going against the president. i think they sho
