matt ackland is here now to explain how graham is fighting back in court. matt? >> reporter: jim graham will go before a judge tomorrow in an effort to block the findings of the ethics board. he believes that he never had a chance to give his side. but at the same time, council chairman phil mendelson is proposing punishment for graham that will be embarrassing and take power away. council member jim graham was at work thursday, leaving the hearing that has oversight of how alcoholic beverages are regulated in the district. it's this leadership role the colleagues could take away from him. >> his conduct harmed adversely, adversely harmed the public's confidence in and the integrity of the district government -- and the integrity of the district government. >> reporter: graham broke the city's code of conduct three times when it came to a deal when it has to do with the district's lottery contract and a development deal connected to metro. >> we're seeking an injunction. >> reporter: graham's not going down without a fight and sent his lawyers to court. >> their

should they give something to lindsey graham, and what should it be? >> is there much to give i should add? >> well, it wib timeline or something of presidential involvement, which is beyond the scope of what would normally be the confirmation process. the other issue that was raised by ted cruz and some of the other hagel critics was what money he may have made in private speeches and the suggestion that cruz made publicly that he may have taken money from rogue regimes which there doesn't seem to be any foundation for that. that's what inspired john mccain, kelly, who is a critic of hagel's to come back to his defense against this freshman senator from texas who is raising the suggestion that he had taken money even from pyongyang or from iran. >> well, what's interesting about mccain's position here is that he has said very clearly that he does not believe that chuck hagel was the right choice in this instance. he believes his performance at his hearing was poor. he took real issue with his fellow republican ted cruz of texas and said that chuck hag

eric why is lindsey graham doing all this? is he just auditioning to a party to a base that di pieces him? >> it's clear that it's some sort of audition. he's doing it because he doesn't want to be primaried in south carolina republican. you know, it's not just graham. susan rice. there were senators who said the same thing. we're going to hold up any nomination for anything because we don't like susan rice. all of this is unprecedented. it's unprecedented obstructionism. and i think they get a pass from the press. if you read the reports today this is what graham is going to do this is the filibuster that they might do and then there is one sentence, oh, this has never been done in the history of the united states. >> john: they've done it before to this president. why are john mccain and sendly graham are so you ubiquitous? >> they want to block everything. what they're doing now is the equivalent of being on the schoolyard playing ball and they say we're not playing until billy gives me some of his ice cream. >> john: it's

i wonder if graham will have the backing. one senator can hold it up. clear me up on senate procedures. have to have 60 votes, wouldn't they to break that hold? >> i think a hold can sometimes keep away a vote of any number. i think what republicans are torn about here is the fact that on the one hand, they do think they have serious questions to raise about benghazi and that the american people have serious questions. on the other hand, when you get involved in libbia, there are always going to be things that go wrong. and i think republicans are worried about polling that have shown voters in general see themmals the party that has been more obstructionist and i think one of the reasons we have seen them compromise more since the election is they want-- they want to sort of sand of sand off the rough edges of their images and they're torn between wanting to push benghazi for substantive and political reasons and not wanting to be seen as "the party of no" as they do to many americans. >> and maybe the question of trying to get some answeres from the a

pair it with what senator graham said on cnn just yet. let me play it. >> we'll criticize everything he does. mr. president, it is now up to you to find the $85 billion in savings and we'll make it easier for you but we'll criticize the decision. this is a bipartisan problem. i voted against this deal because it would destroy defense. lousy way to cut $1.2 trillion and which is achievable. i'm willing to raise revenue, raise $600 billion of new revenue if the democratic friends reform entitlements and fix sequestration together. >> he says fix it together but the top of the comment says every decision the president makes we'll criticize. how do you make heads or tails of that? >> the truth is even if lindsay graham is willing to meet halfway, no republicans on the house share this point of view. you can have a meeting with president obama and be lovely, i'm sure, but the end of the day this is a republican controlled house of representatives that wants to cut spending, cut government. that's the philosophy. they're thrilled this is happen

senator graham said he's simply going to put a hold on these nominations. you say that's unwarranted. but what will happen next if he does that? >> well i would hope we would have in regular order a hearing and a vote on senator haig expel haig expel brennan and then we would bring it to the floor. i can't recall a secretary of defense that has not least had an opportunity to have their nomination brought to the thereafter senate. the last example was senator tower. it was brought to the popular. it was defeated but it received an up-or-down vote. these are critical offices, the secretary of defense, at a time when we're looking at sequester, looking forward-- looking at crises across the globe to dwell on a trag i think ofic incident and use that to block people is not appropriate. to ask legitimate questions as senator graham is doing is completely appropriate. but then to turn around and say "i'm going to disrupt, essentially, the nomination of two key members of the president's cabinet," i don't think that's appropriate. i don't think it's warranted. th

marion barry was punished several years ago and today, barry was the only one supporting graham. it appeared this was the last place that council members wanted to be, called into a meeting to punish one of their own. >> it's not ordinarily constructive to criticize one another, which is why there is a lot of reluctance to do that and why today is an uncomfortable day for the council of the district of columbia. >> reporter: uncomfortable but necessary. it was chairman mendelson who came up with the punishment after seeing the results of three independent investigations suggested that graham broke the city's code of conduct when he agreed to trade boats on two projects. >> it might be appropriate for a council member to publicly express a preference, it's not appropriate for a council member to attempt to influence behind-the-scenes who may win a bid. >> the public has to trust us to do what is right n. this case, to act against use the influence of our office to obtain contracts for friends? >> and he was trying to wheel and deal. >> reporter: graham said the investigations into

okay, charles, we heard that senator lindsey graham on the reasoning behind his vote. and the reason whether why he o delay this. others have different reasoning. your thoughts on this and how it plays. >> as you said, there are a variety of reasons. i think the main one right now for the delay, it looks as if it's just a delay, it's not a denial until the end of time, of a vote on his nomination. it's to look in to the speeches, the income that he hadn't disclosed, in response to a question from senator ted cruz, who asked about that and hadn't received a response. i think the republicans are on good grounds of demanding information. they are required to give advice and consent. in the case of john boltton, nominated by the bush administration to be u.n. ambassador, he was actually stopped completely from the nomination from getting a vote. because of, you know, of a protest by democrats about lack of information. ultimately, the bush administration had to give them a recess appointment. so it is a perfectly legitimate maneuver to, "a," get information and let's actua

>> well, senator graham's question was did he call later or what did he do? i'm not sure -- they're fair questions, but to put a -- i'm not a fan of one senator holding up a presidential nomination. if he wants to make his argument on the floor of the senate, have an up or down vote because those are important jobs. it's not going to help us in the c.i.a. or defense to not have the new nominees in there. so i'm entirely supportive of senator graham's opportunity to raise the questions but he should have put the hold on john kerry, that's where the -- state department is where this occurred. >> are you troubled by what the president may have done or not done or are you satisfied? >> i would like to hear more about what the follow-up was. on the other hand, the president issued the order, deploy the necessary resources and then as dempsey and panetta testified, there was follow-up with the white house staff. i'm not sure the president needed to be on the phone every minute monitoring it. but i think -- i think it would be nice for us to know, but i don't think

graham has oversight hofer how the alcoholic beverages are regulate in the district. the council will discuss whether to strip him of that power. graham hopes council members will call for a hearing to investigate instead. >> his conduct harmed adversely the public's confidence in the integrity of the district government. >> their findings were beyond their legal authority to reach without a hearing. let's have a hearing. let's have a process. we welcome the opportunity to have witnesses and evidence. >> chairman phil mendelsohn doesn't want a hearing. he says he would rather vote on this reprimand and move on with the city's business. >>> in anne arundel county, loire neuman beat 16 other candidates cdz to replace john lee bold. neuman works for howard county but will now serve the last 22 months of the autopsy arundel county executive's term. >>> still head, japan's new prime minister heads to the white house later on today. >> and love possession number nine. what officials overseas seized in a raid. >>> first, a check of the markets showed stocks posting the bigge

senator lindsey graham has been one of the biggest critics of the white house's response to the attacks in benghazi. now he's threatening to use his senatorial privilege to try to block the nomination of chuck hagel for defense secretary tear and john brennan for head of the cia in order to get the white house to give answers. >> you're about to make some news here, i think. you are saying that you are going to block the nominations. you're going to block them from coming to a vote until you get an answer to this. >> yes. >> reporter: on cbs's "face the nation" sunday, senator lindsey graham acknowledges he would use a rule that allow as senator to put a hold on presidential nominees. he hopes by delaying the confirmation of chuck hagel and john brennan he can force the white house to answer questions about how much president obama knew about the september 11th attack in benghazi. >> i want to know what our president did. what did he do as commander in chief. did he ever pick up the phone and call anybody? i think this is stuff that the country needs to know. >> reporter: four americans

graham dijo que fue una de las mejores reuniones que ha tenido con el presidente. >>los republicanos quiere ver si el presidente esta serio, que quiere una victoria y no un asunto político >es importante, porque sabemos que con solo un acuerdo entrre demócratas y republicanos podemos tener una reforma migratoria >>es importante que el presidente se reuna con los líderes que historicamaente avanzaron una reforma migratoria. >>el portavoz de otro negociador no invitado, marco ru bio no invitado dijo, nos alegra que se reunan, este tipo de discusion es constructivo >>el portavoz de casa blanca dice que esta idea surgio entre una conversacion del presidente con maccaine. así y todo ,el presidente ha dicho públicament que de no avanzar el proyecto, él presentará su propio plan. >>y el impacto de recortes se siente ya en centros de detenciones de indocumentados. >>se ha ordenado poner en libertad a centenas, en houston ya salieron en libertad los primeros >>manuel diaz estuvo detenido por veinte dias. >>nos dijeron que si teniamos familia afuera, no pagaran, porqu

[laughter] what happens when ten jews sit in a room and try to come up with puns really. starts that way every morning, actually. so two weeks ago lindsey rhett graham had his raisin -- whatever it's a play. >> did the president show any curiosity about how is this going? what kind of assets do you have helping these people? did he ever make that phonecall? >> look, there's no question in my mind the president of the united states was concerned about american lives. >> with all due respect i don't believe it's a credible statement. >> jon: oh, with all due respect, the president does not care for he is a cad and a scoundrel. [ laughter ] it's a plan as the alabaster tone in my creamy skin and as simple as my maid kicked in the head by a donkey. this president lies like all the other men who wo

let's talk about lindsey graham. when you ask a guy who had already recanted his argument about the power of the israeli lobby, obviously enormously influential lobby like the nra, heavily funded, heavily activated, strong people with strong minds, everybody knows they're influential, that's why they're there. to say which senator do you know that was bought by them, controlled by them, intimidated by them. obviously there's no answer to that question. so what was the purpose of that exchange? what i would submit is it wasn't an interview. it wasn't even an interrogation. it was almost a star chamber attempt to incriminate the guy. in other words, there is no right answer to the question. had he named a name of somebody who had come up and said i was going to vote for that but somebody got to me and said i better not, if somebody had said that to him, he would have been dead in these hearings. i'm just saying what the questions were along the lines of, have you stopped beating your wife? there was no informative answ

is not going down without a -- but graham is not going down without a fight. >> their findings were beyond their legal authority to reach without a process. heats have a hearing. >> reporter: chairman -- let's have a hearing. >> reporter: chairman mendelson has been privately meeting with other council members about this reprimand for graham and will likely have support on monday from many members except council member marion barry. >> i'm going to fight as hards a can among the other members to -- hard as i can among other members to try to get them to agree. >> reporter: graham was listening steps away and hopes instead of punishing him on monday council members will call for a hearing to investigate instead. instead. >> this can be solved if five members of this council requested a special committee be convened to conduct a hearing. >> reporter: in the district matt ackland, fox 5 news. >>> coming up next tonight new details about a foiled terror plot in england, the attack the suspects wanted to unleash on a crowd. >> also a local congressman takes a trip to cuba to visit a jail

they were on capitol hill last week, but democratic senator jack reed says graham is overreacting. >> this is critical. at a time that we're looking at sequester,ing look forward, we're looking at crises across the globe, to dwell on a tragic incident and use that to block people is not appropriate. >> now, if senator graham does put a hold on these two confirmations, democrats would have to muster 60 votes in order to proceed, and he was not the only prominent republican coming out over the weekend to weigh in on these two confirmations. former vice president dick cheney called both hagel and brennan second rate and said their appointments would jeopardize national security. anne-marie? >> susan mcginnis in washington. thank you, susan. >>> well straight ahead, your monday morning weather. >>> and in sports, a rumble on the ice involving arrests?

i don't dislike lindsey graham. in fact, i like him. i don't dislike the guy at all. i think he's facing a potential right wing challenge for renomination in south carolina. by some standards on the republican right down there, he's a moderate republican, i guess. was this a way to show that he had some bullets in his gun and he was willing to play right wing cowboy on issues like benghazi and it would make up for the fact he was smart and reasonable and even a bit progressive on issues like immigration? >> absolutely. you know, lindsey graham reminds me of what al d'amato used to be like when he was senator from new york. in the last couple years, he would have to race to his left politically to get in touch with new york, and in some ways graham does the same thing. he's actually relatively moderate the first four years, and the last couple years he races to get in line with the tea party because people have seen what happened to richard lugar. there were people who were considered reasonable conservative credentials who are now no longer conservative enough to win

>>reporter: they sink graham is doing a disservice. here is senator jack red of rhode island. >> this is unprecedented and unwarranted to attempt to stop the nomination of the secretary of defense and the c.i.a. director. we need a secretary of defense, and chuck hagel is qualified to be that secretary of defense. >>reporter: they postponed a vote on hagel last week and it could come up again for a vote. >>heather: a safety exercise goes wrong on a cruise slip and a drill was underway when a lifeboat fell upside down and into the sea at a port in the canary islands with five crew members killed and three injured and 1,400 passengers were on board the ship but were not hurt. in word on the cause of the lifeboat to plummet 679. >> a new report from the american medical association raising pretty serious concerns about the health of baby boomers. >>heather: the postal service making plans for the future trying to go high-tech and streamlining services. but is it too late for the post office to catch up to the times? >>gregg: helping the m

who is lindsey graham describing here? >> exactly. there's an old and ugly tradition in this country of vilifying and creating these nightmare scenarios of roving basically black young men and brown young men as this violent, crazy criminal element and you have to arm yourself because gangs of them -- >> people like your husband, like your children. >> exactly. >> people like my children. >> exactly. meanwhile, brooklyn is one of the most gentrified communities in this country. places like redhook and places that used to be really impoverished and difficult areas are becoming quite gentrified and the people who live there are more yuppies, but even if they still were communities of color that were largely poor, demonizing those communities as necessarily inherently violent does have an ugly component to it with a long history. lindsey graham knows about it given the region he's from and wayne lapierre is trying to top into it. this crazy -- these are the rafings of a truly addled mind and it ran in the daily caller where the audience

senator lindsey graham. then, his tea party response to the state of the union speech, critical of both the president and the g.o.p. we'll ask senator rand paul who he thinks of the obama agenda as well as republican policy. also, it is less than two weeks until big automatic spending cuts kick in. we'll ask our sunday panel whether congress will reach a deal, before the sequester deadline and, our power player of the week, helps the senate make history, by keeping track of history. all, right now on fox news sunday. and hello again from fox news in washington. republicans made history this week blocking a nominee for defense secretary for the first time ever. they are demanding more information about the nominee, former senator chuck hagel, and about the benghazi terror attack. joining me now, one of the senators leading the charge, republican lindsay graham, of south carolina. senator, you were telling me just before we went on the air that you just got new information about chuck hagel. what is it? >> wel

senator graham said to you there was new information in a speech. you know, or notes about a speech. so what you get is that we have a weak period in which i think you have -- a week period in which you have conservative pom fixes on the hill hoping something more might come out but appearing petty because as you pointed out, chris, this is unprecedentd that you would block the defense secretary and allows the white house to say this is creating instability. we have 66,000 troops still on the ground in afghanistan and we need a defense secretary. secretary panetta is having to go over to bruce sell bru is ssels this week. they don't have the votes to block. >> chris: well, tortion block. >> it they had the votes to essentially have a filibuster but they said they are not going to filibuster. but they don't have the votes at the end of next week to block hagel. >> chris: you talk about the information that you want and you say they are moving the goal post if you will. bob, as somebody who knows a little bit about coverups, are you a little surprised

i don't dislike lindsey graham. in fact i like him. i don't dislike the guy at all. i think he's facing a potential right wing chal feng for renomination in south carolina by some standards on the republican right down there he's a moderate republican, i guess. was this a way to show that he had some bullets in his gun and he was willing to play right wing cowboy on issues like benghazi and it would make up for the fact he was smart and reasonable and even a bit progressive on issues like immigration? >> absolutely. you know, lindsey graham reminds me of what al di ma toe used to be like when he was senator from new york. in the last couple years he would have to race to his left politically to get in touch with new york and in some ways graham does the same thing. he's actually relatively moderate the first four years and the last couple years he races to get in line with the tea party because people have seen what happened to richard lugar. there were people who were considered reasonable conservative credentials who are now no longer conservative enough to win the

to graham is that enough. he said let's make sure it is true. if it turned out it is not true and he could be in serious trouble and they want more information. if i had to beat, i beat more chance than not he will get through. but in the panel, we talked to bob woodword and he said some democratics are uneasy with the hagel nomination and in this week, he compared to water gate twist negligent wind that maybe democratics may go to the white house and pressure them to drop hagel, we'll see. >> there are two tracts, objection toz hagel himself and record in the past and using it as leverage to git more've - get more information about bengazi. you think bengazi is it answered it would help approximate hagel to sail through or the delay in time will bring up more time to dig up more things about him? >> state your namely some people who oppose hagel and try to dig up more information on him. failing that even if they don't get the answers in bengazi, a lot of senators and republicans are uneasy of blocking a nominee for defense secretary . i would

yeah i do want to go and address what lindsey graham senator graham said you know he put this number out there and then he goes on to say you know sometimes we kill innocent people unfortunately. that's what happens when we're at war he says but that's the cost that the side effect i guess of taking a very senior members of al qaeda and he's not the only one that kind of defends the president's drone campaign saying that it's this tactical. it's a tactic that's used to kill precisely target military. what do you say to that argument these people and then there are many of them that defend the use of drones and the way that the obama administration has been conducting this campaign. you know he's right about one thing it is it is a tactic but i think that doesn't mean we shouldn't be able to investigate whether it is backfiring susan collins a couple weeks ago in the brennan hearing actually asked that question and a pretty and satisfactory answer so there are there is at least one senator who's asking the question about efficacy is it working or is it causing more backlash and till w
