california fully aligning itself with the lunatic left as the trump administration insifts on rationale in federal government policy. california's radical attorney general announcing he's suing the administration for adding a question about citizenship to the next census. why should he care at all let alone so much. we examine the bizarre reasons tonight. also the state government out of control. but in a growing number of cities and one county in california, there is hope for america. orange county is a hotbed of common sense and patriotism. and officials of the third most of populist county in california are take an admirable stand against the state's sanctuary law. orange county supervisors voted to condemn the sanctuary law and join the trump administration's lawsuit against the state's dangerous sanctuary policies. the orange county sheriff publicly posting release dates for all inmates including illegal immigrants federal authorities may want to detain for deportation. they will have a list in front of them from now on. las vegas authorities cracking down on the most of dangerous

the budget has been cut for years by the republican congress and the trump administration. it is using internet technology for the first time, so it is asking basically everyone to respond online as opposed to on a paper form. suddenly now, everyone is going to get a postcard telling them to respond online in an era of internet hacks and there will be a question of u.s. citizenship on the form. that is what a freak out a lot of people. a lot of citizens who might not care about the citizenship question are not going to want to respond online because of the fear of russian hats and other things like that in this day and age. there is no leadership at the census bureau. there has been no permanent replacement. underneath the director of the census bureau, there are a bunch of republican appointees with very conservative backgrounds. a senior advisor, for example, is the former director of research for kellyannene conwa's pulling -- hole in form, one of the presidents leading advisors. even before the citizenship question, there's a question about whether the census was an acc

can you see some point to what the trump administration is doing? a lot of these relationships were established in the 1960's. for countries like china who were very poor at that point, they have changed. what is the mechanism to change the trading relationship as a country gets stronger? sec. kituyi: there are two things to the statement. the statement follows in line with the trump strategy which is threatened stream measures and use that as a strong position in bargaining. we are seeing it in north korea, nafta and maybe spilling into the issue of trade surpluses and deficits. the united states has been a major player, and intellectual leader in the evolving of predictable multilateral trading systems. with clear mechanisms for solutions. , our recourse to domestic legislation under section 301, before exhausting the provisions o available to yr next mechanism. it offers more transparency. measures the state can detect when it feels it is a of practices. most extreme forms of trade wars and unilateral declaration of actions on tariffs should be t

however, the trump administration, particularly the medicare administrator who is really active on this issue, has gone ahead and make this request a second time to the trump administration, the administration has said yes. arkansas is another state planning to element a work -- planning to implement a work requirement. there are a lot of unknowns about what is going to happen. even the governor of kentucky expects fewer people to have medicaid after this is implemented, but we've never had work requirements in medicaid before so it is a big unknown, and i am sure a huge unknown for someone like linda who still has medicaid. there are hundreds of thousands of people in that situation right now. host: veronica gets her insurance through her employer here in washington dc. go ahead. caller: good morning c-span. i do get health insurance through my employer. i do have a deductible on certain types of procedures that you are going to have done, say outpatient procedures. of course, it is getting higher. the affordable care act, like all things, has its problems, but it is still a start. sti

so you can call it a temporary victory for the trump administration. shannon? spirit all right, trace gallagher, thank you very much. reaction now to this late-breaking move tonight by the trump administration, cracking down on california as a sanctuary state, let's bring in harvey harmeet dhillon, a civil rights attorney who regularly argues before the ninth circuit, and nevada republican attorney general adam laxalt who has been challenging california sanctuary city policy from across the state line. welcome to you both. >> good to be here, shannon. >> thank you. sue and i want to start by reading a little from the lawsuit. i know you've had time to read from it. the united states has undoubted preeminent authority to regulate immigration matters. this authority derives from the united states constitution and numerous acts of congress. california has no authority to enforce laws that help make obstruct or otherwise conflict with or discriminate against federal efforts. essentially this goes after three straight laws, . >> as you mentioned, shannon, it points

so in some sense, john bolton's statements strengthen the leverage that the trump administration has been seeking in order to set the table for seeking some resolution to this crisis. >> so let me challenge you a little bit on that last part. i spoke to the south korean president's national surity adviser or his key adviser in that regard o said that actually he didn't think it was president trump's bellicose record, but it was president trump's backing of south korea's desire for diplomacy with north korea and allowing south korea to see whether this might produce something. remember, famously, president trump called the south korean president an appeaser in this regard. and i just want to ask you, because it's a bit concerning, chris whily, who as you know is the whistleblower on cambridge analytical, that john bolton had this super pac and one of the first to work with cambridge analytica he said that bolton wanted to do this. let me play it and then we'll talk about it. >> the thesis of the pac was that america and americans have become too limp wristed as it were. and in order f

most people assume the trump administration will impose ta riffs trump administration will impose tariffs on imports of chinese electronics, toys. these are the biggest industries that led to the $375 billion trade deficit that the us had with china in 2017. already us had with china in 2017. already us companies in those industries have spoken out against the proposed measures, saying measures, saying there are better ways to deal with the prospect of chinese intellectual property theft. this could complicate matters for president trump as he tries to fix what he has called an unfair trade relationship with china. let's get some reaction to this now. sarah toms is in our asia business hub in singapore. everyone in asia, particular china, listening out for the statement, this memorandum later from listening out for the statement, this memorandum laterfrom the white house? that is right. as you say, eve ryo ne house? that is right. as you say, everyone in asia is on a knife edge waiting to see exactly what chinese products will be hit and how much ta riffs products will be hit and how much

let me say unequivocally, president trump and his administration made the right decision on blocking broadcom from taking over qualcomm. we all know that china has been rapacious about trade and very smart. they look for places where they can steal our best technology. they develop it there in china and keep us out of their markets and then try to flood the world with their product, sometimes dumping them. china has been rapacious -- rapacious about trade, and, frankly, neither the bush administration or the obama administration did enough in my opinion. president trump has a much better attitude. one particular area of concern is how frequently foreign companies have sought controlling stakes in the cutting-edge technology companies like qualcomm. qualcomm has done a great job and they are leading the world in developing the 5-g system. we need to preserve that as america because it has security concern, both check and national security. as china seeks our dominance in the semiconductor and wireless industries, the united states must be wary of attempts to acquire leaders in these i

>> the question is prompting california to go after the trump administration. anne is live in the newsroom with the latest on this lawsuit. >> the question is, are you a u.s. citizen? it may stop people from filling out the form. today california is suing over it. >> if you're not counted you don't count. in california, everyone should count. >> it is written in the constitution. the census counts all u.s. residents regardless of immigration status every ten years. numbers help the federal government distribute hundreds of billions in government funds. they also help with districting and representation. in december, the u.s. department requested it be placed on the 2020 census. they say it will help them enforce the voting rights act that protects minority voters. the secretary of state here in california calls that laughable and says it's meant to intimidate people from filling out their forms. >> questioning the citizenship status of every person in america is unfortunately just a continuation of the president's blatant agenda to fan the flames of anti-immigr

i think it's really important now for the trump administration to really lay out the game plan as it approaches these nominations. that is where the hard work is going to be behind the scene. there is a body of work across the administration about what a negotiation could look like with north korea. i encourage the trump administration to draw upon not work, but first and foremost they have to have a plan for how they are going to approach it. they have to be able to anticipate north korean nukes, which thus far they haven't been very good at. they were caught a little bit on their back foot with respect to the summit. it's really important to get on their front foot. it's important they stay as close as possible with the south korean and japanese allies as they pursue these discussions with the north koreans and it's going to be very hard i think in this context, especially with the inter-korean summit potentially happening in advance of this u.s. north korea summit. that is going to be a top priority. i also think they have to plan for set backs. and this is where i do worry that i

>>> the trump administration talking tough on russia. first, nikki haley talking about the syrian civil war, calling it a day of shame. first, blaming putin for the poisoning of an exspy in the u.k. saying certainly he is responsible as the head of state. i think we can all draw our own conclusions. after the largest expulsion of russian diplomats in russian history, i want to bring in michelle kosinski. what did haley say? >> she excoriated russia. this is nothing new for nikki haley. we've heard he this tough talk from her on russia before. maybe even more so for other insubstantials. could you say she's built a career for herself as the u.n. ambassador to the u.n. by having these no holds barred statements, where she calls people out. she puts other countries on notice. those are words she's used. but the timing of this. the scope of this. here she is blasting russia. but not even on the poisonings in the u.k. or russia's behavior as it relates. this is about a completely other topic, rurk's cease fire to further its own goals and tho

and obviously the trump administration gave them that space and that time to conduct this dialogue. so how would you say it's going to be playing in seoul? >> i think dialogue is a good thing, and this was a good -- this was a win, a political win for president moon who has wanted to pursue the inter-korean engagement and to improve that side of his north korea policy. the other side is he has to -- or he has been supportive of the maximum pressure campaign to try to squeeze north korea and to try to reorient kim's pressure to the nuke yeclear weapons pro. dialogue is a good thing. any way to diffuse tension by the u.s. or south korea or north korea are good things. >> okay. >> but i think we're all clear that we want to make sure that we go into this with wide eyes. >> okay. but on that point, we really have to sort of narrow down on that. because one of the south korean's president es advisers told us that, look, since the days of kim il-sun, they always talked about denuclearizing, and many states have not let that come to pass, propaganda, et cetera, raising the same kind of dou

the trump administration wants to include a question about citizenship status. it's the first time the government would do this since 1950. the change is already prompting two lawsuits claiming the lawsuit is illegal and targeting minorities. the trump administration says they will help enforce the voting rights acts which protects minority voting. doug mckelway is live in washington, this is a pretty big deal. >> it's a really big deal and really become a hot button issue in the last 24 hours. why? the ultimate fear is that a question about citizenship will drive immigrants away from answering census questions. thereby diluting the representation in the census and perhaps their representation in congress. for example, there's millions of illegal immigrants in california. if those millions were to be somehow eliminated from the census calculations or data, california could lose as many as four or five congressional seats. the census is much broader than that. that's why democrats and groups and voting rights groups are opposed to the citizenship question. >> our

. >> the people of california will not be bowed by the trump administrati administration. we'll fight the sham lawsuit and attacks on the immigrant communities. california attorney general and governor brown are also responding this morning. abc news news reporter laura anthony continues team coverage at the capital. >> reporter: the press conference here at the capital kicked off 45 minutes after the attorney general spoke here in sacramento at another location. he said sessions has basically initiated, as he said, a reign of terror on california. governor brown went on to point out what he said are three laws that sessions told one, that california has open borders, two, that the state protects criminals, and, three, the state wants to secede. brown called session's remarks unprecedented, extremely aggressive, and in the view of the governor and attorney general, totally unnecessary. >> this is a time to build bridges, not walls, to pull americans together, not set us apart, and like so many in the trump administration, this attorney general has no regard for the truth.

the trump administration wants to unravel that guarantee as well. then the trump team is green lighting junk insurance policies that drive up the cost of health care for women with preexisting conditions. and they're involved in very elaborate, as my colleague knows, very elaborate discussions with the state of iowa. excuse me -- the state of idaho. and people ought to understand exactly what the trump administration is saying to idaho because they're going to say it to other people. and that is the trump administration is saying to idaho, you can discriminate. just don't be too obvious about it. that is their position with respect to these junk insurance policies. the administration is exploring ways to place lifetime limits on the care people can get from medicaid, and that's a frightful proposition for the millions of older women who count on medicaid to pick up the tab for their nursing and home-based care. so these are serious health care problems around this country. by the way, we never heard anything in the campaign of 2016 about how we were

the trump administration enforcing strict new penalties against russia. perhaps the toughest steps yet. the president will expel 60 russian diplomats. 40 from the embassy and 12 from the united nations in response to the poisoning of a former russian spy and
