i think bill clinton spent allim of his time picking his cabinet to the detriment of its white house staff. he picked them at the last minute. he was not interested in being disciplined particularly. it was only when leon came in a year end a half in the clinton white house turned around on aim dime. there is a model of white house governance that requires every present have a white house chief to execute his agenda and to do everythingre jack and the great chiefs have done. it is not easy to find great chiefs.. they have to have white house explained generally. they have to have knowledge of capitol hill. deep political savvy world-class temperament and if they are tilucky i really good long-term relationship with the boss there are only a handful of those people around but that would be my bottle. >> thank you. i'm not sure i agree the assessment of the first years of the clinton administration. [laughter] there were certainly bumpy things going on. there were also real accomplishments in terms of economic policy in the model of economic policy for those first two years is very muc

i think bill clinton spent all of his time picking his cabinet trto the detriment of his white house really picked them at the last minute. he was not interested in being disciplined particularly, and it was only when leon panetta came in a year and a half in that the clinton white house just turned around on a dime. i think -- so i think that, you know, there are some models. there is a model of white house governance that requires that every president have a white house chief who's empowered to execute his agenda and to do all things that jack and the really great chiefs have done. it'sno not easy to find, it's nt easy to find great chiefs. they have to have white house experience generally. they have of to have knowledge hill, deep political savvy, managerial act a you men, a world class temper temperament and -- [laughter] if their lucky -- they're lucky, a really good long-term relationship with the boss. there are only a handful of those people around, but that would be my model. >> thank you. >> i'm not sure i free with the assessment of the first two years of the clinton admi

what we needed he really turned the clinton white house around, in my view. >> i don't disagree with that and heto also continued to be ob director in some ways. we had a conference on that here a few years ago. >> yes, we did. >> lessons for the future. the point about the basic structure from the nixon years enduring i think is very true. but every president is different in terms of what their temperament is, i mean, joe biden was in obama administration. he's a different person. there's a a different way of raising him. it's a different way of making sure he has what he needs. if you are chief of staff you have to be just focused on what does the president need? and you can't be locked to a structure that doesn't serve the president. you have to make sure the president, i work for two president who could reap hundreds of pages of night. not every president can, and that doesn't mean they can't make a decision. so i think in my view the most important thing is to see what the president needs, design the process. the othert' thing is it's never good if the team doesn't feel that the

but when he did, he really the clinton white house around in my view? no, i don't i don't disagree that. and he also continued to be omb in some ways. we had a conference on that here a few years. yes, we did. it. lessons for the future. it's very i think that, you know. yeah, the point about the basic structure from the nixon years enduring i think is very true but every president is different in terms of what their temperament is, what their i mean joe biden was in the obama administra he's a different person. there's different way of briefing him. it's a different way of making sure he has what he if your chief of staff you have to be just focused on, what does the president need and you can't be locked to a structure that doesn't serve the president. you have to make sure president some president i work for too presidents who could read hundreds of pages a night. not every president can. and that doesn't they can't make good decisions. so i think it's, in my view, the most important is to see what the president needs, design the process. the other t

i actually worked with kirk in the bush and clinton white houses 30 years ago. so i've known him for a long time. he's. he's a capable guy, but i think unfortunately, he is repeating the, the misinformation that the, by the best pricing is putting out there. i was listening some new stories today talking about housing if we as the u. s. and, and the western allies don't stop and ukraine. he's going to roll across ukraine. roland of finland, role as do a sweden. nothing could be further from the truth and they keep quoting these statements, but they never quote who's saying that those are the russian ambitions. so they're trying to create a bunch of man to scare people into doing more and, and just this week you have to wait austin, the secretary of defense, basically, and 3 things to congress and tell them if they won't pass the aid for ukraine. he's going to send their sons and daughters and cousins that uncles to die in ukraine. i don't think the american people want to say much more money to ukraine. i know they don't want to send boots on the ground to just

his white house responded to impeachment inquiries including how former president clinton's white houseed to pooemts inquiry saying we'll give you these witnesses but not these. there is presidential privilege that we have to deal with here. they are relying on past precedent. so not trying to make new ground here, but saying look, this is what previous white supremacist whitesupremacist -- this is what previous white houses did, so if you want to take us to court, take us to court. so that is why the republicans say they need this resolution today to help themselves in court. >> because without the formalization, they are destined to lose in koicourt. so speaking of past precedent and how presidents handle these investigations, hunter biden was subpoenaed for a deposition today. there is a threat that he will be held in contempt of congress if he doesn't show. but it does seem like we expect him not to show up. what -- do you expect a contempt move, do you expect to see him? how do you see this playing out? >> yeah, i expect him to go to contempt. we couldn't get an answer out of hunte

white house special assistance.gration. as we just heard according to a monmouth university poll conducted between november 30th and december 4th he flunks in both of those. it doesn't seem to get better. almost too little too late? would you agree? >> i agree if president biden can't unify his own party behind him how can he be expected to unify the american people behind him? this disarray and fraction within the democratic base is how broken they are with the policies and how out of touch they are with the american people on every issue, immigration, economy, family, culture, even you look at the national security sites that we have biden is out of step with what it will take to turn this country around and make life better for all americans. you see it in full force with the discontent within the party. >> julie: i don't know if the president listens to people in his party. when you hear one democrat calling the election scary and describing the democratic party as completely too divided sayings herself it is to

white house administration. great to see you, as always, thank you for lending your expertise to all of this. your response and reaction to these new details to the shooting deaths to the three is really awesome just by the idf. i spoke with an idf spokesperson in the previous hour, he indicated that the update there rules of engagement, that they will be pressing upon their soldiers to be careful, to some extent. that they might be engaging with hostages who have escaped. he seemed to go on to say that they are not going to change much of what they do, and terms of their campaign in gaza. what is your sense of everything? >> my heart goes out to the parents of the three young men. it's been a double wound to their heart. for sure, to have their sons be held captive for over 70 days, and then to be shot by their own soldiers and such, certainly a case case of mistake on the part of the israeli soldiers. it calls into question the level of training that these young soldiers have. he recalled that there may be on

aides studied the clinton white house 1998 response to impeachment as a model for a vigorous defense and making republicans pay a political price. he has sands trois is combative and good at his job. they have their work cut out on both sides. >> bill: will we hear from abbe lowell today, the attorney for hunter biden. to keep everything straight, hunter biden is one thing. impeachment inquiry into the sitting president is another matter. that will develop throughout the day. this is the best guidance we have from chad pergram. you heard byron donalds said they might lose one. maybe they lose one or two. that's in quotes now on the impeachment inquiry today. debate likely comes around mid to late afternoon. so maybe that's 3:00 to 5:00 eastern with a vote then to happen around 5:00 or 6:00 later tonight. it is all in flux at capitol hill often is. >> dana: they should take the vote before "the five" and we'll talk about it. >> bill: stand by. we have our cameras there and find out together what happens. u.n. did it again voting for a cease-fire by an overwhelming majority. but any me

it's the white house adviser to president clinton. from the obama white house. you guys know a thing or two about being in an administration that is running for reelection. i want to start with what we've been seeing. this is not happening in isolation. this day after day of positive economic news that seems to be getting out some of the most critical difficulties on the economy the biden administration that has been facing. not getting credit. why is that? >> because he's not doing it right. he is bragging when he should be bashing. two thirds of americans move -- were not in the mood to vote saying thank you. they're in the mid to vote saying screw you. he needs to introduce a threat, it's something president clinton did. he said that dole and gingrich, he called them every day, or a threat to medicare or medicaid and education and the environment. every single day. i still remember that. mma-y, medicare and medicaid education environment. he needs to say trump is a threat. he's a threat to your job, your health care, your social security and your abortion rig

. >> and for eight years the clinton-gore white house grappled the israeli palestinian crisis and your former boss said he tried to settle it once and for all and there was a deal whether he had the leaders of israel and the palestinian people in the united states trying to offer a deal. given all of that history, and given the blood, sweat and tears of the clinton-gore administration to try to bring peace to the region, what goes through your mind when you see the crisis unfolding as it is right now? >> it is heartbreaking. and beginning with the hitler level atrocities of october 7th. just unbelievably horrific. and, of course, as our secretary of defense has said, it is important not to make the same kind of mistakes that our country made after 9/11 that ended up making things worse. so, the suffering of civilians in gaza has to be attended to. and the response to the atrocities of october 7th are what israel has a right to pursue. but it needs to do it in a way that doesn't end up making the situation worse and i think there have a majority in israel that agree with that. we have t

. >> lastly, obviously, for eight years the clinton-gore white house grappled with the issue of the israeli-palestinianr former boss a few years ago saying he killed himself to try to settle the issue once and for all. obviously, was there a deal on the table when he had the leaders of israel and the palestinian people in the united states trying to offer a deal given all that history and given the blood, sweat and tears of the clinton/gore administration to try to bring peace to the region. what goes through your mind when you see the crisis unfolding as it is right now. >> well, it's heartbreaking and beginning, of course, with the hitler-level atrocities of october 7th just unbelievably horrific and of course, as our secretary of defense has said, it's important not to make the same kind of mistakes that our country made after 9/11 that ended up making things worse. so the suffering of civilians in gaza has to be attended to and the response to the atrocities of october 7th are what israel has a right to pursue, but it needs to do it in a way that doesn't end up making the situation worse, and i thi

clinton was really good at finding ways to go around the white house press corps.me he would do it regionalocal media. he would do a lot of satellite town halls or he might be in the white house but here it can to a gathering out in the community. the administration really started expanding media alternative. i'm working on a new book on the state of the news media shapes communication strategies. the clinton chapter have a lot of this already done is called amplifying the message. you look at the documents in the clinton library on this topic at the communication with the press up office but we have to amplify hethe message. that meant they will find new ways to promote the president the traditional national media was not have the same power it used to have. we'll tell you something by the end of the 1980s that media environment is definitely changing. on twitter i follow all of the presidential levers and that you.d not surprise this morning the george h.w. library tweeted in 1989 on october 3 there is a photo president bush on the white house he's getting ready to do a q&a for sports ill

. >> all right, well let's discuss this with jill lockhart, former white house press secretary for former clinton. thank you for joining us, i want to start with the fact that trump's competitors are defending him in this primary ballot issue. charlie, are they right? is this just a unifying issue, finally? >> well, i think chris christie is correct that trump will become a martyr and be able to monetize this decision and, again, play the victim. but on a more serious note, though, it strikes me that absent a conviction, you know jack smith hasn't charged trump with insurrection, nor has the department of justice. i happen to think he was involved in a an insurrection. but it really needs to be some kind of a finding from a court i would think to disqualify him. i realize that's not what the constitution says but we can't have a situation where these two states, colorado and maine, say they're going to disqualify him while other states allow him to remain on the ballot. it strikes me that in this case i think trump's opponents are correct in their analysis, they haven't been correct in so

i want to bring in allie raffa who's outside the white house for us.t voters, hillary clinton can be seen as a divisive figure. how does theiden campaign see her role? >> reporte ts choice is a potential risk that the biden campaign considers worth taking for a few major reasons. one of them no doubt being as you heard steve talk about the poll numbers and where the former president stands and his impressive lead in polls. in a hypothetical head-to-head match up, and that is outside that poll's margin of error. the biden campaign is attempting this all hands on deck approach to get the president as much help as he needs, and one of those top surrogates that is included in that effort is hillary clinton. this is someone because of her past positions on the global stage, she comes with her own faithful base of supporters. she's also a prolific fundraiser, she raised almost a million dollars for the biden campaign, and she's also popular with key parts of the democratic base that may be harder for the biden campaign to tap into. she could use her power an

house to perform and bill clinton genius and george w.c mocking barack obama and we've got -- the only thing with this skit is they went after it after liz mcgill resigned due to overwhelming blow back and landing on a happy note is snl is getting powell rised on social media -- pulverized from all sides on this and that's encouraging. stuart: yes, it is. joe concha, good stuff. see you again soon on that one. bill maher declared harvard and upenn team hamas. lauren: bill maher is 100% committed to free speech. he says you want to be anti-israel, that's fine but this is not. >> what bothers me is the double standard. >> oh my god, yeah. >> say they don't say kill the jews, but i've heard chanted [bleep] the jews. the bigger scandal here is these are the biggest most esteemed colleague. dei sounds great in theory and it's how it's working out and you rank the colleges and elite colleges and keep up with the bottom and if not last coming to free speech on campus. the university of pennsylvania president liz mcgill resigned and she was alrea

house and for hillary clinton's presidential campaign.alyst. ryan, from what i wrote down, saying this is political hack ri, with not a scintilla of evidence. the republicans argue there is evidence but that they need an inquiry to get more information because joe biden is hiding something. is that about the summary of it? what did you hear today? >> reporter: excellent analysis on your part, chris. i think you read that pretty well, and it couldn't be more of a different perspective from democrats and republicans when it comes to this next stage of the impeachment inquiry. democrats have said from the very beginning this is nothing but a fishing expedition designed to hurt the current president joe biden and to do so at the behest of the former president, donald trump, who is his likely opponent in the 2024 election to mute the fact that donald trump himself was twice impeached while he was in office. and when you listen to the back and forth here, it's pretty clear that both sides are trying to lay the groundwork for their arguments for
