well a president will seek to nominate someone to the court the question is how the senate judiciary committee should respond and i have called on the house and the senate judiciary committee for quite some time now to convene a hearings to investigate this president and his administration and their abuse of power and their violations of the constitution we may very well have a situation that involves high crimes and misdemeanors. offenses were way past the point where we were in one thousand nine hundred seventy three with respect to president nixon and to me it be quite shocking to see the senate judiciary committee proceed with yet another supreme court nomination for someone with a lifetime tenure when they haven't been doing their job which is to investigate what's going on in this administration as i say once again we are well past where we were in one thousand nine hundred three with respect to becks and when the senate as well as the house had judiciary committee hearings and this president his legitimacy as a president is very much in question given his conduct while in office and his

and as a longtime member of the senate judiciary committee, he's fought to check judicial activism and protect liberties. he's been instrumental in confirming more than 1,800 judges to the federal bench, and he's participated in the confirmations of every sitting member of the u.s. supreme court. in this capacity, he's also been vocal on antitrust issues. in 1998, he led a high-profile hearing with microsoft's then ceo bill gates, a mere two months before the department of justice, 20 state attorneys general and the d.c. attorney general filed suit. his message then was clear -- beware of high-tech monopolies. we're thrilled that the senator is here to share his knowledge and experiences with us today. without further ado, please join me in welcoming senator orrin hatch. [ applause ] >> well, thank you for that nice introduction. it's awfully nice to be with all of you today. i always thought that i'd always like to be with a group called yelp. i felt like yelping a few times up there on capitol hill. but i'd like to thank yelp for hosting this event. a senator gets many invitations to

jeff flake is a member of the senate judiciary committee. there are 11 republicans on the senate judiciary committee and ten democrats. so it takes only one republican vote against a nomination in the senate judiciary committee to defeat that nomination in the committee. and so, if jeff flake doesn't back down and stays true to what he said before justice anthony kennedy announced his retirement, jeff flake can be the senator who stops the next trump nominee to the supreme court. normally a nomination that is defeated in the committee dies in the committee. that's the end of it. but in this case, the nomination would still go to the senate floor. mitch mcconnell would still bring it to the senate floor with the report, technical report that the judiciary committee voted against it. but that wouldn't bind the senate floor. it would go to the senate floor with one republican voting against it. and that would give plenty of encouragement and political cover to the three democrats who might be inclined to vote for the nomination. by that time the

they're set to testify before the senate judiciary committee. i'm dana perino, this is "the daily briefing." horowitz and wray will be taking questions publicly for the first time since the release of the reporting into the fbi's handling of the hillary clinton e-mails. critics from both sides lashing out at the white house policy that is separating families at the border. the president earlier today placing the blame on democrats. >> we cannot get them

is a date on the calendar for monday next week for open public testimony in front of the senate judiciary committee. the lead committee for the inspector general report. but it appears that the date is likely to slip again. >> harris: we have seen delays and the lawmakers i talked with said they want a chance for that report to come out obviously before they would hold that hearing. they have to wait until it happens. >> if i could add one thing. >> harris: sure. >> based on what we know it's a lengthy report. somewhere in the neighborhood of 500 pages. people who sit on the senate judiciary committee feel they need a couple of days to add quitely comb through the report -- adequately comb through the report so they can ask the right quell for the inspector general horowitz and he can defend, appropriately defend his findings. >> harris: sure. interesting. 500 pages. depending how much of it leaks >> and one other thing on that. and i think that is pretty significant because we are in a phase right now be the principals who cooperated are allowed to review the findings and make their case,r the bes

connecticut senator who serves in the judiciary committee. listen to your colleague about this vote. >> if he's consistent, using his own rule, we'll wait for four months, have an election and let the american people decide what the majority in congress will do. >> are you demanding that standard tonight? >> the american people should have a voice. my americrepublican colleagues respect their own precedent. a decision should take place after the new congress is seated. >> what are you prepared to do if mitch mcconnell goes forward with what he said is he's not going to follow his precedent. he's admitted is hypocrisy that o only applies to presidents he doesn't like. >> the american people should and will understand the momentous importance of this choice for the reasons you discussed early. this justice will have a decisive vote. call it a swing vote or a majority maker. we're in an unparalleled moment of assault on rule of law when our fundamental liberties are in danger. we're going to use every tool available and we will possibly be creat

senator dianne feinstein the ranking member of the senate judiciary committee has a lot to do with this is what she says about moving forward. >> as you sow, so you reap. i think we have a plain plan. and it will be announced by the democratic leader at an appropriate time. but, this is a very serious situation. and no one should under estimate it. >> sandra: democrats are pushing back you have to fill a seat in election year. have to hold it open until after the election. you can't fill it well, we mental that in presidential election years. she says they have a plan. i don't know what democrats are planning to do. >> mitch mcconnell didn't just say that last night. he said that throughout 2016. the question wasn't whether every election year is the same but whether presidents should have the right to pick their nominee. so whether you think that what mitch mcconnell did in 2016 was a good idea or bad very clear and explicitly clear so were the people who supported his plan that was about presidential election years. democrats are in a tough place right now. there are republicans who m

both of whom were dinged in the senate judiciary committee and the full senate because they were so unqualified. this is 1969 and 1970 when nixon lost two supreme court nominees because he selected people who were incompetent and could not have done the job and who were proven to be racist. this is a process that is a constitutional process designed to protect this country for generations to come. and to have the senate majority leader, that's why when i hear this matter of raw power, he's going to insure the confirmation of whoever the president puts forward, every senator should bach at that. every senator should recognize that individually they have a constitutional obligation to advise and consent. >> not only that, fez, share lynn makes a key point, as well which is the difference between blocking and getting someone through. what mcconnell had to do with garland was basically having one conversation with chuck grassley and that was don't have a hearing. and he agreed. and between the two they could block it. here they've got to go through the process. they can't short circuit it the way t

in the meantime, we had back to the senate judiciary committee hearing underway right now on the justice department's ig report >> i'm grateful for your continued efforts to protect the integrity of the fbi, department of justice, and their important work. >> senator cruz. >> thank you, mr. chairman. gentlemen, thank you for being here today. these are difficulties in the department of justice and the federal bureau of investigation. both the bureau and the department have long, decades long in the department's long, centuries long traditions of fair and impartial administration of justice. there are thousands of good and honorable men and women who work at the bureau and the department of justice. and yet their integrity has been called into question. by misconduct and political bias at the highest levels. on may 3, 2017, then director comey testified before this committee that he "never," never were his words, then the anonymous source in the news investigation dealing with the trump campaign or the clinton campaign. then he testified he had not ever authorized someone else at the fbi

yesterday, the fbi director christopher wray testified before the senate judiciary committee. today, house judiciary and oversight lawmakers taking their turn interrogating the inspector general. oversight chair trey gowdy and ranking member elijah cummings sounding off to say the least. because this inspector general's report should conjure anger, disappointment, and sadness in everyone who reads it. this ig report lays bare the bias, the animus, the prejudging of facts by senior fbi agents and senior attorneys. in attempts to minimize and mitigate this bias are so antithetical to what we want and deserve in our law enforcement officers and it's dangerous to the broader community. >> at this point, i think it's crystal clear that the only answer republicans will accept is that hillary clinton must be guilty. republicans in congress are only willing to use their full arsenal of constitutional weapons to attack hillary clinton or protect donald trump. >> melissa: i go to you first. is it about attacking hillary clinton? when i heard was trying to get to the bottom of what's goi

should andrew mccabe be given immunity to testify before the senate judiciary committee? >> i don't. he wants use immunity for whatever he may testify at the hearing. i think we need to let him come forward. take the fifth amendment which ways' threatening to do. t we are never going t get to the bottom of this on mr. comey and loretta lynch, the strzok and page and this whole cast of characters if we give him immunity. unlesse's got a massive bombshell, and we won't know that. then i don't think you give immunity. kennedy: look at the people that were given immunity during the hillary clinton investigation. so i agree with you. i think they should with hold there fan he's done something bad, there has to be accountability. what does accountability look like for these three people. >> one of the great makes america stand out in the world ostensibly is we hold everybody accountable and everybody has to obey the same laws. if you grant immunity here to somebody who may have known about corruption, but corruption for political purposes. think about that. you undermine the ve
