she said, judge roberts was unquestionably right in refusing to preview or prejudge legal issues at his confirmation hearing. both of president obama's nominees adhered to the ginsburg standard as well. his first nominee sonia sotomayor explained that what her experience on the trial court and appellate court have reinforced for me is that the process of judging is a process of keeping an open mind. it's the process, she continued, of not coming to a decision with a prejudgment ever of an outcome. that process, she said, applied not only to the cases that would come before her on the supreme court if she were confirmed but that could come before her in her then current capacity as a circuit court judge. now most senators of both parties have respected the ginsburg standard. for example, during her hearing, senator leahy told justice ginsburg that he certainly didn't want her to have to lay out a test here in the abstract which might determine what her vote or her test would be in a case she had yet to see that may welcome before the court. and even my friend from new york has recognized

if you factor in the considerable hidden fees that nyu ends up charging, i think it is unquestionablyhe most expensive school in the country. sharyl: critics call those hidden fees backdoor tuition. and it's not just nyu. colleges around the u.s. have quietly devised creative, complex systems of mandatory extra charges on top of ballooning tuition. application fees, student orientation fees, credit card fees, you name it. parking permits cost up to $858 at ohio state university. california polytechnic state charges an annual $814 student success fee. harvard's mandatory fees add up to nearly $3800. at the university of california los angeles, there's the student services fee, instructional enhancement initiative fee, seismic fee, document fee, green initiative fee, over $2000 for mandatory health insurance, and more. together, it adds upwards of $4000 on to tuition, room, and board. vincent cinque: lots of nickel and diming, so we're giving so much as it is, and now you're gonna take even more from us that's like not technically included in the tuition. sharyl: vincent cinque graduate

prime minister netanyahu smiling and happy to be rebooting the relationship after what's been unquestionably a rocky relationship personally between the former president and prime minister nattetanyahu. how it bears out other the next couple months and maybe even today's when we're talking about settlement activity obviously the trump administration already has said -- >> thank you very much. thank you today i have the honor of welcoming my friends prime minister benjamin netanyahu to the white house with his visit the united states again reaffirms our unbreakable bond with our cherished ally, israel. the partship between our two countri countries built on our shared values has advanced the cause of human freedom, dignity and peace. these are the building blocks of democracy. the state of israel is a symbol to the world of resilience in the face of oppression. i can think of no other state that's gone through what they have gone. and of survival in the face of genocide. we will never forget what the jewish people have endured. your perseverance in the face of hostility your open democracy in

resistance and while that may not have much influence on him or even congressional republicans it is unquestionablyhanged the way congressional democrats are reacting to his presidency as you saw in an interview with chuck schumer he doesn't have the maneuverability to work here and fight here he is facing unrelenting pressure from a democratic base, where the trump approval is over 80 percent, like, to have a much more forceful resistance, in fact donald trump did more to galvanize the opposition to him than galvanize the support for him and still has a core support that is probably below the 46 participant level that he got in the election, but he has done enormous benefits and created some risks for democrats in getting them united, and it ginned up so much that it is hard fortuning schumer, move into the areas we can, for, chuck schumer, you do not hear that a kind of talk from chuck schumer. >> dickerson: the democrats will penalize the democratic base, the democratic base will punish them for normalizing donald trump. what do you think the president is going to do on the executive order? we d

democrats are grasping at straws to block the confirmation of an unquestionably qualified nominee. i'll repeat, neither of the two supreme court justices that president obama put forward were subject to the 60-vote threshold. so although i agree with senator manchin that judge gorsuch will probably get 60 -- enough democrats to get to 60, it's just simply not ever been a requirement. on to the events of today. the president started his day by attending the national prayer breakfast. it's a tradition that continued over six decades, going back to president eisenhower. the president thanked the american people for their faith and prayers that have sustained and inspired him. noting that the five words that he's heard more than any others are, i'm praying for you. he spoke at length about the isis genocide against christians and the oppression of peace-loving muslims, as well as the threats of extermination against the jewish people and made it clear that he believes the united states has a moral obligation to speak out against such violence. he encouraged americans to remain a tolera

lots of conversation, reaction to president trump's nomination of neil gorsuch and, scott, it is unquestionably within a turbulent 48, 72 hours for the incoming trump white house but if there is anything that could it in together the political sensibilities and energy of congressional republicans it would be this nomination for this untilled seat on the supreme court. the scalia seat. and it is important to note that in the east room tonight in the second row, senate majority leader mitch mcconnell sitting right next to him, the house speaker, paul ryan, a good number of republican senators from the leadership and rank and file are there, sew is former attorney the ed meese of the administration a strong signal from the white house it is trying to keep alive a conservative approach to the supreme court. it has found a conservative who called antonin scalia a lion of the court, if so neil gorsuch is a lion in training, intellectually, and it is that approach to the 0 constitution, the law and his own temperament that many senate republicans have told me tonight they believe will stand in good st

. >> unquestionable.very country in the world would hope to influence the election of countries who politics matter to them. the united states regularly declares who they want to not lead countries and russia since the 20s has been trying to influence the elections. what we don't have now is the evidence that russia itself did influence the outcome. here we are trying to assess whether trump was involved in something that we don't even know that was a real thing. it questions his viability to be the president of the united states. he wasn't rightfully elected. >> any sense of where this is going? >> i don't think it will go to bed anytime soon. if they are intimidated by the new york times or going on in town halls where they feel like they are being pressured to take on president trump Ãi think all of that is leading to forces that are making sure that this investigation and tying it to president trump will continue. that's why expect that we will see more president trump to these types of public rallies

but unquestionably this is a treacherous time and all we can hope for is a vil gi laent press, that's going to be true going forward. >> i don't see -- i think the press is going to take him on. i don't think the press is going to back down on him. >> it depends on what you mean by the press. the facebook is the rated in the country, people choose to get information from that way. this is like the pizzagate store, you remember that. they sent a gunman into pizza with a weapon which he discharged. i hope that the president's comment do not send another violent person to go after the target the president named. it's hard to read his comments. it's that serious. this war on the press, i think for donald trump it's nos a med for. >>> still ahead president trump fundraising off the wild unforgettable news conference. >>> fighting word from senator rand paul. what et beef, obamacare. republicans are arguing amongst themselves. >>> what he told me about the trump administration. i've found a permanent escape from monotony. together, we are perfectly balanced, our senses awake, our hearts rac

while the congressional budget office has shown that this will unquestionably -- unquestionably -- increase costs for seniors. his dark view of medicare that, to quote congressman price, "nothing has a greater negative impact on health care than the federafederal government's intrn through medicare" -- that's an extraordinary statement. "nothing has a greater negative impact on health care than the federal government's intrusion" -- intrusion, mind you -- "through medicare" is understandably causing a lot of concern back home in new jersey, with many people who have been calling and writing me to express their thoughts. the dr. william thor of summit, new jersey, himself a retired surgeon of 50 years wrote in that "price's to privatize medicare indicates a lack of quern for americans who need health care coverage." i also heard from mccara davis who wrote in on behalf of her uncle who has end-stage renal disease and requires dialysis saying, "if trum "-- if price ae trump administration successfully move medicare to a voucher program, i fear that my uncle will not be able to afford the nece

generation, unlike jefferson, washington, adams, hamilton, madison, franklin, burr was born fully and unquestionably into whatever nobility and gentility 18th century america had. unlike the other revolutionary leaders, therefore, burr never felt the need that he had to earn his aristocrat particular -- his aristocrat status. aristocracy was in his veins, in his blood, and he never forgot it. and he took it for granted. consequently, he behaved very differently from the other revolutionary leaders, especially in promoting his own selfish interests at the expense of the public good. his letters are not full of any talk of virtue or disinterested behavior. he just didn't care about that. his talk was always concerned with what can i do to advance my interests. he didn't care about the other values that the others were intensely trying to cultivate and perform. burr behaved differently, and in the end i think that difference provoked his fellow states men -- statesmen into bringing him down. he was brought down from both ends of the political spectrum, from hamilton at one end, from jefferson at the ot

point it out when the president of united states keeps saying things that are demonstrably, n unquestionably false. when he won't answer as question like the russians are in theory in our election, this is a demonstrable true thing, your people were on the phone with them, did you take about the interference and we can't get a straight answer on that, that is bother some, isn't it? >> i don't disagree -- >> you can't because they're demonstrable truth. >> it's the job of the media to call people in power out and the most powerful person in the world. he does that, he does it regularly. fox, cnn, all other tv networks and these organizations like my own and others have the responsibility to be sure that that is reported and that it is corrected. >> shepard: treating jim acosta from cnn, a guy's never met but a good reporter. treating him like he's -- i'm not going to use the word. i'm not going to give twitter love it needs. it's crazy what we're watching every day. it's absolutely crazy. he keeps repeating ridiculous lines that are not true at all. sort of avoiding this issue of russia as if

and there's unquestionably a portion of his base that does like that. that by itself was not enough to win. if you look at the exit polls one quarter of the people who voted for him said they doubted whether he has the temperament or qualifications to be president. they wanted to take a chance. they didn't like hillary clinton. they had doubts. if you look at his approval rating in polling, college educated voters his approval rate cigarette down to 35%. it's a mistake to say everyone with him initially is comfortable with the style he's brought to the white house. >> fair point. i want to go to what we heard this morning, john kasich warning about the impact of the president's words and the impact they have on our relationships, the u.s. relationships we say with allies. take a listen. >> and the fact of the matter is that words matter. i think the administration needs to understand that loose words, frankly, causes great concern. one of the things that amazes me on this trip over here is as much as the europeans criticize the united states of america,

when i watched, wolf, sean spicer say yesterday that this was unquestionably a successful operation basedthe intelligence, that did not ring true to me. i have received a preliminary briefing, but more than that, i know that it takes time after these raids to really analyze what you've obtained to determine just how significant it is and to say so, so quickly seemed to me he was getting out way ahead of the evidence and it said to me this is an administration that is very defensive. they probably told sin come send us the video, we want to push it out there. we don't have time to vet it and they didn't and that was a mistake. i think what sean spicer needs to understand is every time he oversells or misstates or misrepresents, he loses a bit of his credibility he may never get back. and they are going to have a real problem on their hands. >> so, just to be precise, at least as of right now, you haven't seen any really significant intelligence information that emerged from this raid that will help the u.s. down the road in fighting al-qaeda? >> i'm saying it's too early to tell. i think w

you have the president nominating someone who is unquestionable to the supreme court. have him standing up for religious conservatives and to repeal the johnson amendment and you have very conservative immigration policies that he is pushing and fighting for despite courts telling him that he's gone too far. so, yes, i do think that among his base there is a lot of support for this. beyond that, can donald trump convince the rest of the country that he is the kind of president that they need? if we're having this conversation three years from now or even a year from now as republicans head into the midterm elections, it's going to be a much different conversation. >> let's talk about the democrats because caitlin, i know you've written about the whole immigration order galvanizing that party and they're trying to gain high ground, is there a sense that there are parts of america sidingith trum and that this is a riskyosion? >> it's interesting because democrats have been looking for a way to get off the mat, so to speak, after the election and this immigration order ha
