wendell goaler -- goler is still there.asted john boehner and the republicans in the house. what's their answer? >> they're going to be frustrated that once again the president is attempting to go around congress. this, of course, coming on the heels of last friday's supreme court ruling that his attempt to bypass their ability to block recess appointments was in fact unconstitutional. the president feels he has no choice. he has a humanitarian crisis with tens of thousands of children being brought to the border or coming to the mexican border, and if they are not from mexico, if they're from central america, they are let into this country and put on a docket for immigration cases that in many cases they don't show up for. and in that regard, the president was wrong. he said, most of the time -- in most cases the legal process results in these children being sent back to costa rica, guatemala. in fact in most cases these children do not show up for their legal court hearings, immigration hearings, which takes months, if no

wendell? >> chris, the president is very reluctantly boosting u.s. military aid to iraq on the condition, he says, that nuri al maliki boosts a government that invites the kurds and sunnis to join in. the officials here feel maliki is a big part of the problem. his alienation of sunnis has led many to support the terrorist group isis as an alternative to the iraqi government. even former iraqi military leaders who served under saddam hussein are now fighting against the government, which is part of the reason iraqi troops were crumbling. isis still controls a god chunk of the country, but the government's made some gains this weekend trying to retake tikrit. and it's getting some help from russia, which is sending a couple dozen second-hand war planes, which can be used against ground forces and mobile targets. they're also sending trainers for iraqi pilots. that'll set up a rare case of u.s. and russian military advisers in the same country battling the same enemy, though neither the russian trainers nor the u.s. advisers are expected to see combat.

of her tenure there, to 10 million per day.nd female readers they were her because for wendell wilke. as simple as that. claire were republicans. and when she made that switch to f.d.r., she was no longer welcome. yes? >> what was her relationship eleanor roosevelt? >> eleanor roosevelt didn't like her. she didn't like her, especially her pacifist metta -- thank mooreist because thompson had organized this -- what she thought would this international women's movement. movement inace which she says can't we all be friends? andn an ur guns eleanor roosevelt believed that highly avon was a military.e o state-of-the-art meaningally, she eleanor roosevelt, denounced ofothy thompson on the floor was -- whenn she roosevelt was the head humanitarian commission. you. was justhompson embarrassed.ry as a matter of fact, after that, her movement died on the vine. resigned. >> we have time for one last question. given us an amazing portrait of each of these two women. say a little bit more about their relationship with another. do they encourage each other? did they compete with each other? did th

wendell, let's start with the news about the 27 new insurance companies that are going to be joininghe exchanges coming in off the sideline? what do you make of that news? >> well, it doesn't surprise me a bit because what happened, these big companies decided they did not want to participate at the very beginning. much of these were investor-owned companies and these investors don't really like a lot of risk and these big companied, united health care in particular, they're now jumping in because they see that there's plenty of opportunity there. and the government is also helping to mitigate some of the risk. so i think we're going to see during this coming, this next year, during the most open enrollment, a lot more choice and i think you will see premiums stabilizing and not increasing as much as the right wing said it would. >> so there's two ways you can view this news. one this is going to be good for consumer,s, more choice, more competition pushing down premiums. the other thing is if insurers think they can make a buck in this market, maybe we should be skeptical it is good

joining us now with the latest, fox news senior white house and foreign affairs correspondent wendell goler. >> the president is very reluctantly boosting military aid to iraq on the condition he says that president nuri al maliki forms a knumpt that invites the kurds and sunni muslims to share power with the shia majority. they're not insisting that maliki step down, though officials here feel he's a big part of the problem. his alienation of sunnis has led many to support isis as an alternative to the iraqi government. even some former iraqi military leaders who served under saddam hussein are now fighting under the government which is part of the reason iraqi troops are crumbling. isis still controls a good chunk of the country, but the government made some gains this weekend, trying to retake tikrit, and it's getting help from russia, which is sending a couple doesn't second-hand war planes that can be used against ground forces and mobile targets. they're also sending trainers for iraqi pilots. that will send off a rare case of russian and u.s. military advisers in the same count

wendell, i mean, he was playing games with you. he knows what you were talking about.ls pertaining to this investigation went missing, not all the emails. they always do this kind of stuff. did that get you angry that they always kind of pars it? >> no. sticking with the story. which is that the targeting of tea party groups looking for tax exempt status may have been bad management, there is no evidence that it was politically motivated. now the current irs had promised to provide all the emails sent by lois learn his or her was the former head of the department that dealt with tax exempt status. the fact is that the irs told the white house council's office two months before it told the irs told the white house counsel's office two months before it told congress that some of ms. lerner's e-mails were lost when the computer failed. now they are trying to find if the irs did all they could to recover those e-mails. the government does i.t. very poorly, old computers, dated software, many offices using windows xp, which are no longer supported. >> it doesn't matter. wha

wendell mentioned that. you can blame part of that on the weather. look ti fact we have very high unemployment. jobs people have gotten are not paying well. they are part time jobs. if you have a job your wages are stagnant. people don't have money in their pockets and consumer spend cigarette two-thirds of what fuels our economy. >> could it mean we're headed back into a recession. >> there are some economists who are saying that. that might be a little too severe. there are sign of life in the second quarter. we've seen some good housing numbers. what it does mean is that the overall number for 2014 is not going to be anything like what the government and the fed had estimated. >> finally, melissa, a lot of people don't understand the stock market, when you have bad news like this, why doesn't the stock market sell off on the bad news. >> absolutely. there's two reasons for that. one is a lot of investors feels this news is in the rear view mirror. we're almost in the second quarter about to start third. the news about first quarter is behind us. i

wendell at the white house has the reaction to the decision. but we begin with shannon at the supreme court tonight, with another case of presidential overreach. good evening, jan shon. >> reporter: hello, chris. wh the president decided to name three people to the national labor relations board, at a time the senate said it was in session, he overstepped his constitutional boundaries. >> he went too far. this is a great day for america. >> reporter: in a unanimous decision, the supreme court said president obama exceeded the limits of his executive power when he decided back in january 2012 to bypass the senate to name three new members to the national labor relations board. on december 17th, 2011, the democratically controlled senate by unanimous consent had adopted a plan to keep the senate continually in session, gaveling in for so-called pro forma sessions twice a week. writing for the court justice steven breyer found that mechanism enough to hold the president at bay. the senate is in session when it says it is, provided that under its o

my colleagues assistant were crandall and wendell ford. were we supposed to get together? we did. people come up to me and say you're al cranston. i said no. he looked like me, but and the same first name but that really happens to me. it's not funny. [ laughter ] but cranston was a good egg and wendell, but george mitchell sat in that room and then my job was to go around to our, to my people as whip and i'd say is there anything about what they are working on in there that gives you heart burn? well, yeah what are they doing in there? they are working on the clean air act. well wait a minute, i don't -- i said then you're going to go into that room and you're going to tell what's your little pain. then he bitches about the clean air act. notice don't. you don't need to go into this room. if you do, then you need to go into this room. here in this room was moynihan, chafy, good people of both parties and george patiently coming out of his majority office to join at the table. well metzenbaum and i did not have a loving relationship. we did get there. when i taught at harvard he c

>> guest: wendell wilkie. he was the electricity man who had accompanied the thought he would light up the south. instead they trashed the compa company. the book is a self the story becoming angrier and angrier and the climax of it is when he speaks truth to power. by being so obnoxious with business and putting our documents think we are hurting the whole country because we cannot hire people. if you are bitter you don't get very far. you can be angry. i love drawing and more seeing paul draw him. he comes out in the end and has the lowest claim that existed in the news and the literary editor of the tribune so that was going to draw her and i want to say thank you to the familie familyt have all helped me with learning about wendell wilkie. there is a great attorney and his brothers, so that was a fun story. and if this book is a demon and we had trouble trying to decide thabut i didn't vilify him but i don't know i guess it is henry morgenthau and then there is also a great figure for saying what the gover

. >> wendell goler is live from the white house for us. the iraqis have asked for air-strikes against this terror group. is the president going to approve that? >> he seems to be leaning that way but nothing is likely to happen today or tomorrow and nothing is likely to happen until iraq's shia prime minister, nuri al maliki, commits the sharing power more evenly with sunnis in his country, something the u.s. feels is at the heart of the problem right now. the islamic state of iraq and syria, also known as the islamic state of iraq and the lamont, some sunnis in the iraqi army have reportedly abandoned their weapons and deserted. mr. obama feels no amount of u.s. bombing can correct that situation. >> any action that we may take to provide assistance to iraqi security forces has to be joined by a serious and sincere effort by iraq's leaders to set aside sectarian differences to promote stability and account for the legitimate interests of all of iraq's communities and to continue to build the capacity of an effective security force. we can

. >> in most of my closing arguments, i used to quote oliver wendell holmes who said, memories may fadeemble, but circumstances never lie. and circumstances of this case are forensic circumstances and they did not lie. >>> a drive-by shooting on an alaskan highway. and the bomb sent through the mail. two apparently random acts of senseless violence, until forensic science discovered an important link. on an october night in 1990, rob chamberlain and his friend were driving along glenn highway in anchorage, alaska, headed to a local restaurant. as he approached the exit ramp, chamberlain heard a loud crack. he looked back and saw a hole in his rear window. then he saw his friend, 20-year-old jeffrey cain, slumped in his seat and covered in blood.

united states supreme court decision was rendered in one nine hundred twenty seven by justice all over wendell holmes jr who was regarded as one of the great progressive justices in the united states and so he said in the end three generations of imbeciles are enough kerry's mother kerry and that. what about washington getting tougher on its allies like saudi arabia because it's no secret that saudi money was a crucial factor in the rise of the extremist can bomb more to take on the united states will drag their feet they did declare early on in the uprising. it was a terrorist organization. and others were terrorist organizations and prescribe them but it did very little to carry through with that and to force its allies to equally prescribe those groups. we speak your language. news programs and documentaries in spanish matters to you breaking news a little too negative angles to the stories. you hear. that spanish. visit. but. i didn't know that you know the price is the only industry specifically mentioned in the constitution and. that's because a free and open press is critical to our dem

cranstongues were al and wendell ford. me today andp to said, you are al cranston. no. [laughter] me, but --ike and the same first name. that really happens to me. it is not funny. [laughter] cranston was a good egg. when george mitchell sat in that room, my job was to go around to my people and i would say, is there anything they are working on in their that gives you heartburn? they are working on the clean air act. wait a minute. i said, you are going to go into that room and you are going to tell what you are paying. so i round them up. complaints about the clean air act? if you do not, you do not need to go into the room. but if you do, good people from both parties and george patiently coming out of the majority office to join at the table. we did not have a loving relationship, but we did get there. , he i taught at harvard brought his grandson and we told about how the two of us used to tear each other to shreds and that is another strategy -- aumther story, but metzenb put an amendment in that coal of itsbe reduced by 60% sulfur. wyoming was already below that.

at the pentagon with a look at who the iraqi militants are and what they want, but we begin with wendell goler and the president's message today. >> good evening. the president is still deciding what he will do but he says there's nothing the u.s. can do to make iraq, sunni and shiite muslims live together peacefully. that is something they are going to have to do forthemselves. >> as mill i -- militant fighter celebrat celebrated. the united states is not simply going to involve itself in a military action in the absence of a political plan by the iraqis that gives us some assurance that they are prepared to work together. >> mr. obama met with his national security team in the oval office but did not take senior security advisers along on a trip to north dakota and california. house arms services committee chairman ed royce said the president and his team need to be acting urgently, not reviewing options in the days ahead and retired lieutenant colonel bob mcginnis says they should have seen this coming. >> he's always late. in this particular situation we could have totally anticipate

early part of the 20th century, the republican party struggle was between a roosevelte ace, teddy , wendell wilkie, tom dewey, and the like. they were not communist's. they were republicans. and a conservative base, william howard taft, robert taft, goldwater, onto ronald reagan, although he govern our more as an establishment pragmatist than anything else. when hillary clinton talks about herself as a progressive in the early of -- early 20th century, it is or more along the -- those lines. progressives on the republican side. the struggle is between those who would be the old conservative route that i think are more radical, and on the immigration front, i think smitty reflects what is the in the tension here now republican party. on the issue. a lot of people who see immigration -- the immigration system, by every standard, is broken. it is not working. a lot of people basically want to shut off the borders and others see it in a different way and navigate through that. it is one of the great challenges. not the only, but of the great challenges both artie's in the country have. i think

white house correspondent wendell goler shows us. >> reporter: 70 years after the largest amphibiousanding in history, leaders of u.s. and europe gathered in normandy to remember the turning point in world war ii. >> we come to remember why america and our allies gave so much for the survival of liberty at this memo of maximum peril. >> reporter: with most of the surviving servicemen who took part in the landing now in their 90s, our living link will be did gone too soon. the americans went to utah and omaha beaches, the british and kands to gold, juneau and sword. tens of thousands were delivered inland by planes. >> guys were dying all over the place, and you think you are running fast but you are carrying about 80 pounds of equipment. >> reporter: the americans suffered 3,000 casualties on omaha the first day, but the battle lasted three months. the breakout took much longer than the strategists expected. the orthopedics simple but -- the orders were simple but hard to execute. >> you will hold the bridge until you are relieved, regardless of how long it takes and how many casualt

>> wendell, we have described what was the case. that's that iraq has over the years taken steps to resolve its internal political differences through peaceful means as opposed to through violence. this is an ongoing challenge within iraq. isil is not a domestic political entity. it is a force that's trying to claim territory and wreak havoc in iraq. it is a force that has no iraqi citizens' interests at heart. that's why, as i mentioned before it is a threat posed by isil as cause for increased unity among iraq's political factions. and a more cohesive approach to be taken by the central are government in baghdad when it comes to combatting the serious threat. >> senators are graham and cain both held "i told you so" conferences to say we are seeing now the risk of losing what americans lose their lives for was cause bid nd by not keeping troops in iraq. why are they wrong? >> wendell, there is no question that senator mccain and president obama have differed on the iraq war since senator mccain was for it and barack obama was agai

wendell goler.this is a way outside the box choice for this president, and a lot of ceos are watching this curiously because they want to see how much power or free rein he would likely assure. are you hearing anything like that, that the president has granted him maybe more authority than he did his predecessor? >> well, neil, you're cheering the president for going outside the box, but mcdonald retired under pressure from investors who felt he wasn't do enough to grow procter & gamble. the white house says his combination of military and business experience makes him a good nominee. here's josh earnest from earlier today. >> was chosen because he has the kind of record, as a solid manager, that will be required of the next secretary of the veterans affairs department, to put in place the reforms needed to live up to our covenant we made with our men and women in uniform. >> now, reaction to mcdonald's selection is generally positive -- >> right to the president now, with his choice, robert mcdonal
