with the election of jd vance. it is true that senator brown is vulnerable even as he holds a narrow lead in the polls right now. ohio has not trended anywhere more to left since brown ran in 2018. as we see time and time again, candidate quality matters. that is the question at hand tonight. the republican primary is effectively a dead heat between the establishment back state senator, and the trump endorsed maga guy. also running is secretary of state frank larose there on the right. you might remember him from his failed attempts to keep abortion rights off the ballot in ohio last year as the secretary of state. backers of moreno are calling this the death nell. >> do you want to go back to the romney bush, kasich party? >> no. do you want the party of jd vance? >> yeah! >> donald trump? >> yeah! >> that is what this election is all about. it is what has held us back. let's just be clear about that. >> to be clear, senator vance who the crowd was cheering for, lived in san francisco for years before he realized

and jd vance won by six points. and that had a horrific underperformance, and it was a terrible democratic year, so, the trump, vance in moreno lane, in general is not a very good lane, even in ohio, so, if you have a closer election. then a 25 point blowout at the top, where there is no urban turnout in 22, yes, the single digits or 10 points, like eight points, whereby the lost in 2020 year. and that underperformance changes the outcome. and it has continued. and this trump, and, moreno's speed should be quoted, and are we the party of jd vance, well, they are cheering for the wing of the party. it did almost 20 points worse. then the more moderate wayne, that was all and from matt dolan, so it is sort of like the herschel walker, jd vance, and be dramatically over performing the order establishment. >> of course, brown, the incumbents, the three term senator, very popular. and looking at a statewide public, he really has carved up the same guy, i profiled him when he was running for senate in 2005, into 2006. and

we were hearing vance check his mic while you were talking. vance, before were expecting six cuts.e're down to three. how important is it that we get these three cuts and if we do get themas expected, how do you advise your clients? >> powell said he was dial back. i'm bullish going into this even if we don't get any cuts at all this year. inflation is popping at a moderate pace. that is the direction we want to see it go in here. >> let's play devil's advocate. what happens if we hear a hawkish jay powell tomorrow and it looks like we won't get any cuts this year? when had the chief economists on yesterday. what happens if we don't get the cuts? where do you advise clients to move their money? >> the magnificent seven has done well although it pared down to six. there is a lot of opportunity out there. a lot of companies are making money. it goes back to the old statement. money has been lost. let's stay within the trend and trade the trend. >> vance, you are not worried about the recession? that doesn't change your perspective? >> it gives me pause. i'll not lose sleep over it. w

back with us now, howard lippman and joyce vance.o bring in msnbc contributor jonathan alter who is also in the courtroom today. jonathan, talk to us about what you two saw in the courtroom today, the dynamic between the lawyers, the prosecutor and the judge, judge merchan. >> well, first of all, this was an historic day, even though it was just a pretrial hearing. the judge decided for the first time in american history a president of the united states will face a criminal trial starting april 15th. so that shouldn't be minimized here. that's a pretty dramatic development. the expression on donald trump's face was consistent with that very bad news for him. i happened to be seated in the courtroom on the aisle, so he walked within a couple of feet from me as he was walking in and out of court. particularly when we went to break and he knew that the judge was going to rule against him, he had a very grim expression on his face. you can tell that this was sinking in for him, his delaying tactics had run their course and he was going t

if you look at jd vance, mike lee, ted cruz, josh hallie. moreno. rick scott, they can cause a lot of trouble for whoever succeeds mitch mcdonnell, whether majority or minority. >> donald trump is facing problems within his own coalition, losing ground with the small donors who carried his first and second presidential campaigns. how bad is this for him? >> it's very bad. because they don't want to pay his legal judgments and litigation fee. and they see what the grist and the graft really look like now. i think donald trump's legal problems are real, personally and professionally. i think what we need to be concerned about is, does that create a danger in donald trump the candidate and possibly as president again. is he willing to look to bad actors to? foreign actors, for some type of financial reprieve? how does it influence his behavior going forward. we've seen this game with donald trump and it's not a good one. and he blends ethnic rules and conflict rules and that is ultimately bad with the nation. >> maria teresa, i'd love to get your input

we will turn next to senator vance. sen. vance: thank you. welcome to our witnesses. thank you for being here and welcome to all of our guests. i want to direct questions to you, ms. simpkins. i appreciate you being here. i am particularly concerned about some of the estimates i have seen about labor shortages at our long-term care facilities. not just now. i know there is an immediate problem of not enough people at some of our elderly care facilities. but i saw an estimate that by 2030 we will need -- obviously people will retire and drop out of the workforce, but we also have changing demographics in this country. we are growing older is a country. i read we will need an additional 7 million long-term caregivers at these elder care facilities. that seems like a shocking estimate to me. it is hard to imagine how we could possibly hire effectively one million additional people per year at these facilities, given the already existing labor shortages. i am curious if you think that estimate is within the reasonable range. and if it is not, how many more workers do we n

if you look at jd vance, mike lee, ted cruz, josh hawley. rick scott. they can cause a lot of trouble for whomever succeeds mitch mcconnell as the republican leader. whether in the majority or the minority. >> trump is facing problems within his own coalition. losing ground with the small donors who carried his first and second campaigns. how bad is this? >> they see what the grift and the graft really look like now. donald trump's financial problems are real. both personally and politically. and that will be a stressor on donald trump. i think what we should be most concerned about is does that create a danger in donald trump the candidate and possibly as president again? is he willing to look to bad actors to some type of financial reprieve? how does it influence his behavior going forward? we have seen this game with donald trump and it is not a good one. he blends ethic rules and conflict rules and that is bad for the nation. >> i would love to get your view on this. because not only did we see the former president having trouble with small donors,

vance-backed candidate. and we have areas where they have more college degrees and dolan was strong around cleveland and around columbus back in 2022 and ran up the good margins there, but ohio has blue-collar working areas, and areas demographically in the trump wheelhouse, and this is why the state is more redder when trump emerged in 2016, and the areas were resistant to dolan in 2022 and that is the biggest challenge if he is going to be fending off the trump-backed moreno. and if the democrats have any chance of winning back the majority, they have to win ohio, and more involved, but with ohio with the expectation that trump is going to carry the state in fall, that is an enormous headwind for sherrod brown, but this state, one that we will be revisiting a ton between now and november. >> we will watch what happens tonight. it could be close or a blowout. vaughan, you in arizona where president biden is set to hold a rally tomorrow. take us through primary day there. >> right, ana. we are a lot less exc

yasmin vasiljevs and lisa ruben and joyce vance and paul butler.ald trump's attorney has been trying to have this trial pushed back. what are we learning so far today? >> you mentioned at the top that they are arguing over motions. you ended on the supreme court. those are two perfect ways to begin and end. that's because of what's happening in the courtroom. the only thing they are talking about right now is the date. they are not talking about necessarily the jury questionnaire. all they are trying to focus in on is when this trial is going to go forward. one of the arguments in which the former president's attorneys is making as we speak -- the latest notes we got in -- is the immuity case with the supreme court heard on april 22nd. the argument being made is, they cannot decide on a trial date until they decide on immunity. the motion filed by the former president's attorneys. in addition, they are arguing about what's happening in new york and the hush money trial on march 25th. the judge asked about the schedule in new york. trump's attorneys

despite that neither vance nor trump nor scott may be his pick. the conventional wisdom suggested trump might look to court women voters by putting one on his ticket. trump says he liked the concept which brings us to south dakota governor christie noem. you remember she ran ads during the presidential debates for herself. >> south dakota state open for business during the pandemic. now we have more jobs than people. so i'm feeling hit -- in until you get here. >> that aired during an issue where she was not participating in any elections but that donald trump might have been watching. he is looking for a vice president. noem has been very obviously auditioning for this role but in a strange term it appears she is endorsing a texas dentist on social media doing ads like this. you high, i'm christie noem and i had an opportunity to come to smile texas to fix my teeth. i think i chose the team here because they are the best. i love that my bite is better. >> great, good for you. noem is now being consumed by a consumer group for not declaring the re

one of them, jd vance prevents mask mandates there's another moment offered by senator kennedy that protects the second moment rights are veterans. my point is simply is when you have an appropriations process where the bills get out of committee and brought up on the floor open up the amendment outcome and a better result. not only do people feel more invested in that process but you get better bills. yo get the representations of people from all across the country on both sides of the political aisle. a point i would simply make is e future but we've got to do better job on the appropriations process around here. on the way we go about finding our government. >> and mark my words come tomorrow night will be joe biden's last state of the becaun people are not going to invite him back to give another one next year. that's because issue the american people care about, joe biden is failed the american people. people are worn out and worried for themselves and their families. they understand their lives have been made worse by joe biden and the democrats. people are begging for solutions. what

time ryan who ran against vance for the senate ran almost a perfect campaign.ocrats didn't pour a lot of money in there but the tide was such that ryan could not win. the tide is what's the national situation? the national drift. i don't believe that ohio is like some firmly red state. it may be now, but when i was elected governor, there was only one person in statewide office who was a republican. right now, we're in this moment where it sort of looks red but you mark my words. down the road, places like cleveland and youngstown, they will start to change and i think it will become a much more competitive state. the question is what's the time period for that to happen. >> i was going to ask you how far down the road. >> we don't though. look, i think trump is a momentary phenomenon. he's been around for a while. >> almost a decade now, governor. >> well, i understand that, but you know, he lost the election, too, right, to biden. he's still having an enormous influence on the party. but i'm a patient man. you know, i don't think it's all about what's going o

back with us katy phang and joyce vance. waiting from a decision from new york about the hush money trial. what do you think the judge is weighing today? >> yeah so this was a little bit of a bombshell yesterday when we learned that the trump team was asking, at a minimum, for a delay. they wanted to dismiss the prosecution really. claiming that the district attorney's office had violated its discovery obligations. but that's not really what happened here. instead trump's lawyers sent a subpoena to the u.s. attorney's office in manhattan this case is being prosecuted by the state but trump's lawyers wanted information from the federal prosecutors. and the federal prosecutors were slow turning that over but ultimately they turned over tens of thousands of pages of documents starting at the beginning of this month there are still more to come. so trump's lawyers went to the judge and said we're entitled to more time. due process requires that we have the opportunity to look through this. they want three months. >> the da's off

vance have endorsed me. party of mitt romney and liz cheneshg y, you have a choice on the other side, i don't think that is where ohio is. they want people in office that put interest of america first. that should be how everybody in elected office thinks, that is nowata my opponent think. >> carley: expectations in the primary, you are running against rose and dolan. polls show dolan slightly up, in other polls, you are slightly ahead. does that match your internal polling? >> we're up a little bit more, end of the day, we're going to get the message out. we have j.d. vance and kari lake today, will go over to cleveland and put it in the field and make sure people get to know me. >> carley: you did receive the trump endorsement. dolan received endorsement of ohio governor mark dewine. he said you and he are great can'ts, he thinks dolan would have a better chance of beating brown in november. a democratic pac is promoting you, what is your reaction to that? >> i think that is just democrats knowing i'm goin

attorney joyce vance who spent 25 years as a federal prosecutor. good to have all three of you with us. joyce, let me begin with you. and what we are waiting for in georgia. anything stick out to you in today's hearing especially about how the judge might handle things going forward? >> well look. the law is pretty clear in this regard. the law says that the first amendment doesn't protect the guy who walks into the bank and says stick them up. people use words to commit crimes. and so, donald trump is charged not with the speech itself but rather with the conduct that involves committing the crimes and sometimes he spoke in furtherance of those crimes. i think judge mcafee will dispense of this very quickly. a similar motion was dismissed in washington dc. >> one of our two leading presidential candidates has so many ongoing court cases they are delaying each other and he is actually using that as an argument to delay each case. we still have seven months until election day. how confident if at all are you that our institutions like the courts and

vance: i appreciate that.- [indiscernible] -- first republics not to apply a regulation to that because it doesn't solve the underlying problem. my fear is if you apply it to banks of $100 million and above, you're doing just that. with that in mind, i'll yield. thanks, mr. chair. chair brown: senator tester of montana, is recognized. senator tester: thank you for being here, chair powell. we appreciate your work. difficult situation. but i think you have done a really good job. thank you for that. look, success at the fed mandate for strong employment and stable prices is critical for small businesses on main street. for farmers, ranchers, for montana families. you fall all the metrics. from your perspective, where is the economy at? now and where is it going? chair powell: the economy is growing at a healthy, sustainable pace. that's the one thing. second thing, the labor market is very strong and quite tight still. 3% -- 3.7% unemployment for the last 24 months. that's the longest period in 50 years. third

a lot of those comments were made about jd vance, who remember at one point was a never trumpers, but he still was able to eke out a win in that republican primary due to the power of the trump endorsed smith so he thinks that that's the most important thing that's all he wants to talk about and that's >> really one of the many reasons, but i think maybe the key reason today that we are so focused on this and that is what is the power of the trump endorsement right now in the middle of his effective general election campaign, i think republicans generally find donald trump's endorsement, especially as a big motivator among the grassroots. and so that's what you see with them promoting it. lauren bowlby, it's promoting in her race. >> john maguire hi or who's competing events? bob good and virginia. that's what he's trying to achieve so that they can go back to these voters and say, donald trump is backing me. >> it's >> a kind of honor seal for them versus what they voted for or whatnot because the republican party, especially the grassroots base, is much more populist and in races li

one of them, jd vance prevents mask mandates there's another moment offered by senator kennedy that protects the second moment rights are veterans. my point is simply is when you have an apppr where the bills get out of committee and brought up on the floor open up the amendment process you get a better outcome and a better result. not only do process but you get better bills. you get the representations of people from all across the country on both sides of the political aisle. a point i would simply make is this is got to change in the future but we've got to do better job on the appropriations process around here. on the way we go about finding our government. >> and mark my words come tomorrow night will be joe biden's last state of the union address. that is because the american people are not going to invite him back to give another one next year. that's because on issue after issue the american people care about, joe biden is failed peop. people are worn out and worried for themselves and their families. they understand their lives have been made worse by joe biden a people are beggin

. >> senator vance of ohio is recognized. senator vance: thank you chairman powell for being here is good to be here in these hearings are important is our opportunity to provide some oversight and have a better understanding of what you guys are doing. i one that focus on the regulations and proposals to drop them down to focus on regional banks. to go back to one of the significant crises is the collapse of svb and first republic in you and i have spoken, one of the concerns i have is increasing capital requirements on banks. there is an argument that svb would have bought more long-term treasuries would expose her balance sheet to bond risk which would have hastened the collapse of svb and i want to start here, when you talk about the fossil basel regulation, what was the proposals for which banks would fall under those proposal in which would escape them? chair powell: this time around? there are four categories of banks through to the fourth category. the proposal out there now is extend to category four. >> what's the m

and vance. in 16 minutes, on d. w. these places in europe smashing the rank one step into a bold adventure. the treasure map for martin clo, describe it as some of us wriggled, begging sites on youtube, and also the so you like being alone. well, listen not your never alone. they are looking everywhere. checks and bed box mosquitoes and full liens, worms and allegiance. all of them help for your blood but hold on a 2nd. some creatures do have our interests at heart, so don't take to your heels. and that way you also won't miss in good shape the.

host: vance ginn, economist and host of the podcast "let people prosper."versation. you can go ahead and start calling in. democrats, your line is 202-748-8000. republicans, 202-748-8001. independents, 202-748-8002. this week, speaking about the economy, just last night, very, very recently, congress managed to get the 2024 budget passed. it is on its way to president biden to b signed. but there were a lot of house republicans who were not happy with speaker johnson and the budget deal itself, more than 100 of them voted against it. your thoughts on the budget, and should republicans have supported it more? guest: it takes a lot for them to pass a budget they have not passed a complete agent in decades something i think we should go to is actually passing for budgets instead of passing continuing resolutions that kick the ball down the road. that is unfortune not only for the certainty of how much funding will come from the federal government to states and other issues, but also for the economy as a whole. for businesses and their actions that are taking p

vance amendment prohibits mask mandates on public transportation.ther amendment was offered by senator kennedy that protects the amendment right for veterans. quite simply, when you have an appropriations process that was brought up on the floor and opened up the amendment process, you get a better better result. not only people feel more invested in the process, but you get better pills because you get the representation of people from all across this country on both sides of the political aisle. the plan i would simply make is this has got to change in the future. we have to do a better job on the appropriations process on the way we go about finding our government. mark my words, tomorrow night will be joe biden's last state of the union address and that's because the american people are not going to invite him back to give another one next year. and that's because on issue after issue that the americanops failed the american people. people are worn now and they are worried for themselves and their families. they understand their lives a been mad

will even be represented in the senate by two isolationist senators at once, this is the first jedi vanceell, the second one is bernie morena, so here. of course, yes, this does not make trump a friend of russia or an ally, but situationally there is still a certain benefit from him, trump voted himself too, the main question was, who did trump vote for, and trump said, who did trump vote for? who did you vote for? i voted for donald trump. did someone just ask who i voted for? yes, i voted for donald trump. thank you. yes, please. i'm here. this is evidence of the understanding in the united states of america that the strategic balance is changing not in favor of the united states, well , the strategic nuclear arms race in moscow, america is losing so far, well, i already talked about this, the russian federation has already has completely updated its strategic nuclear arsenal, the americans still have all this to do, and here they have a fairly serious one. with moscow to the idea of ​​the need for dialogue and with moscow with beijing, it seems to me that this opens up certain opportun
