he helped crack the case of robert warren. >> you've seen the movie "dumb and dumber." ice cubed and claimed it was a hailstorm. >> i saw a sliver of red on the field, and it was clear evidence that it was a scam. >> he uses satellite imagery and a gps to help prosecute. >> just nothing but weeds up there. in california, kyle needed satellite images to prove a farmer guilty on 16 counts. some of the properties like this alleged wheat field for that remote. >> it was pretty obvious, and the pictures that we introduced in trial, i think the jury was able to see right away as well. >> as effective as these tools can be, the usda is not using them enough. >> they have the tools, they're not maximizing what they could be doing. >> dr. browne worries about what can happen when the insurance program is expanded. >> if there's more money available, there's going to be more people out there. they're going to be out there and looking for loopholes and schemes to take advantage of that money. >> crop insurance is also unpopular with environmentalist that say it will cause overplan

roberts would join. >> he says if a justice can find any way to see a statute as constitutional, they must find that it is. by calling the mandate a tax. warren says he may have had another factor in mind. >> he realized as a nation we're probably ready to move on. we don't want two more years of this battle. so it was also a very pragmatic decision. >> overall says the ruling proves that the judiciary is first among equals. >> the supreme court doesn't speak last necessarily because it's right, but it becomes right because it speaks last. >>> the other fact, of course, 4 of the supreme court justices, they are appointed for life. they don't have to worry about who agrees or doesn't agree with their opinions. one of the most 25 most significant in the century. >>> all right, christian, health care reform was kind of low on the presidential race meter, that is until it happened today. after the announcement mitt romney tried to set himself as the voter's choice. the president reminded america the end of the mandate was actually mitt romney's idea. both sides seized the justice's ruling. republicans picking up on that, chief justice john robert

yesterday's supreme court decision led by chief justice don roberts -- john roberts upholding the affordable care act. he liz beth warreneans for millions and millions americans. i have to say yesterday when cnn and fox news and almost everybody else got it wrong at first saying the court had rejected the individual mandate, our jacki schechner got it right. >> that's why we count on her every day for our current news update. here she is. jacki? >> good morning, bill. it pays to pay attention. good morning everyone. what happened to romney and congressional republicans now that the supreme court said it is constitutional. mitt romney's response was to attack with the usual right-wing talking points. house leader john boehner reiterated his party's commitment to try to repeal the law. >> obamacare is a job killer. jacki schechner romney there. apparently having difficulty with that but now that the court has said it can be interpreted as a tax, the g.o.p. is going after the president and bill talked about this the last hour saying he lied when he said there. there would be no tax increase for the middle class. just to be

[ dramatic music ] >> what did the president know and when did he know it huh? >> gene in minneapolis. hi, gene. >> good morning, stephanie. >> good morning. >> sorry i had you on speaker there. i have two suggestions, i would like to see something like what was done when sandra fluke was being raked over the coals and there were only males called to congress called to testify. i would like to see a separate investigation opened up but somebody else publicly. >> right. >> and the second thing is for democrats to go on the offensive, to not keep having to be on the position of the defense and having to respond to the crazy stuff that the

don't let's kid ourselves that john roberts has turned into the second coming of earl warren. he's not that conservative on that issue on this day. >> what a day it is. all right, guys, thanks so much. we're going to have more to discuss obviously in our next hour as well. meanwhile, president obama had a hint of a smile on his face as he approached the microphones after the ruling. we're going to hear his reaction. and his rival, mitt romney, energized by the decision. his reaction as well. plus, the impact on the race for the white house. and the historic house vote on whether to hold attorney general eric holder in contempt of congress. it's happening very soon.

warren buffett is leaving the vast majority of his wealth to charity, not his children. more and more wealthy baby boomers are apparently follow his lead when it come to inheritan inheritance. robert? >> one of the big questions for today's wealthy is how much money to leave their kids. a new survey finds many millionaires don't plan to leave their children much at only. only half of today's millionaire baby boomers believe it's important to leave wealth to their kids. a third of them would rather leave that money to charity. a third of them say they don't believe the kids are ready and a third are confident that their children would be ready to deal emotionally and financially to deal with that wealth. this is evidence that parents and kids need to do more planning and educating and have more open conversations and do more estate planning. fine. maybe denying kids such a large inheritance isn't such a bad thing. a majority of today's millionaires did not inherit their wealth. they made it themselves, they know success is due to hard work and education and being allowed to fail. they want the same thing for their kids, which is understandable. most wealthy parents would prefer to

suggesting john roberts did that this morning, but just about every other conservative in washington is. >> they are. i mean, there were flashbacks, i guess, for some folks back to earl warrenas a conservative justice who ushered in a very different era during his tenure as chief justice. i think that we've kind of pegged roberts right out of the box. he is a very consistent in his practicing na tism and he approached this from a bottom up. recall when he -- during his confirmation hearings he said he looks at the law from the bottom up. from how it's -- how it's developed organically and what it turns into it, what it is, what it does. i think you saw a little bit of that yesterday. áhp)e frustrated with that. a couple of members of congress saying that, you know, they'll look for remains to remove him from the court. that's silly. >> just shut up. >> you have those levels of silly extremes with respect to him and you're absolutely right. the left love him today. they hated him a few weeks ago. >> and by the way -- by the way -- for my fellow conservatives. >> oh, boy. >> liberals will hate him tomorrow. >> absolutely. >> for the next 25 years. >> there you go. >> they wil

roberts court. this bears your stamp, this bears your impromoto like the warren educator for so many years. >> he putactured court. yes, he decided with the liberals in this decision but the liberals said that congress had the power to do this under the commerce clause and in some ways it is -- i guess you call it a solomonic decision and chief justice trying to walk that line. in the end the act is upheld but for juris prudence. a heavy opinion we have here and we all will be studying it for a long time to come. >> don't lie to me. savannah guthrie, i haven't seen you walk out like this. chuck todd, where do you see this affecting at least our short-term policies? >> reporter: i think on the presidential level you'll actually see this fade a little bit. i think the obama folks believe there is a small window for them here to essentially readvertise the health care plan. you heard that from the president and maybe they will move public opinion a little bit. but you're going to see mitt romney slowly stop talking about it. yes, it's good fund-raising fodder and good for their base. where you will see

swing vote and that justice roberts would be automatic with scalia and justice thomas and justice alito. but you know, you can't -- all these pundits, you think back to warren berger in 1973 roe v. wade, i didn't expect him to be the deciding vote of that abomination of a law back then. so again, you just can't read the justices. and this certainly verifies that today. again, i'm totally surprised. i was predicting that they would strike down the individual mandate in a 7-2 vote, based on the constitution. and look at article 1, section 8, clause 3. and this issue of it being a tax, the democratic majority, the president all along said, no, it wasn't a tax. they would never have passed it had it been a tax. how would they have gotten any blue dog votes, and the necessary 60 votes. actually, they forced it through under reconciliation and only needed a simple majority. they didn't dare call it a tax. all of a sudden, justice roberts says it's a tax. it's beyond my ability to comprehend. >> i guess he decided that because the irs was going to be in charge of implementing that penalty, that individual mandate penalty if individuals didn't purchase health insur
