a short time ago, the republican senator john cornyn urged house republicans to take a deal, he said you either you know, get the votes and get half a loaf or you get nothing at all, joining me now is ralph norman of south carolina, thank you so much for joining us, using that metaphor from senator cornyn, are you willing to get half a loaf with a compromise bill that isn't house resolution 2 or are you sticking by your guns? >> all i can speak for is what i'm going to do. this is not that complicated. >> johnson had said early on, the border invasion is the issue simply you cut the money off and shut the border down, and forced the biden administration to do that and anything short of that i will be against. and to the border, it is awful what is going on, it's against humanity, it's against america, very simple for me, i don't take what john cornyn said, i would not take his advice on that, the house controls the purse strings and we have to start acting like that. >> when you say shut the border down, what does that entail exactly. if you shut down the traffic between united state

senator john cornyn from texas.nue to cover that bill as it progresses in discussions and deliberations as that happens. so breaking late today, the pentagon insisting that the united states is not at war with houthis in yemen. despite new strikes just a short time ago and this from the terror group. >> the issue that america and britain have joined the war directly and we're not in direct confrontation with the americans, british and israelis does not scare us at all. >> martha: michael waltz a combat decorated green beret next. municipal bonds don't usually get the media coverage the stock market does. in fact, most people don't find them all that exciting. but, if you're looking for the potential for consistent income that's federally tax-free, now is an excellent time to consider municipal bonds from hennion & walsh. if you have at least 10,000 dollars to invest, call and talk with one of our bond specialists at 1-800-593-6593. we'll send you our exclusive bond guide, free. with details about how bonds can be an

cornyn: mr.sident. the presiding officer: the senator from texas. mr. cornyn: mr. president, are we in a quorum call? the presiding officer: the senate is in a quorum call. mr. cornyn: i'd ask consent that the quorum call be dispensed with. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. cornyn: mr. president, earlier this week the american people received the tragic news that two navy seals died during a nighttime raid near somalia. now, somalia is a world away from here but what happens in that region has a direct impact on us here at home because one of these navy seals was from the great state of texas. these men and their brave comrades were seizing a vessel that was carrying iranian-made arms intended for houthi rebels in yemen. now, i know after 9/11 there was a famous country western song, i think where were you when the world stopped turning. one of the reasons was i don't know the difference between iraq and iran. well, the truth is the american people have had to learn a lot about world

cornyn: mr. president. the presiding officer: the senator from texas. mr. cornyn: mr. president, since president biden took office three years ago, customs and border protection has encountered 6.7 million, 6.7 million migrants at the southern border. just to give you an idea of how that compares to the obama administration and president trump's administration, this is more than those two administrations combined, and that was for a period of 12 years where president biden has been in office for three years. the administration still hasn't released the number of illegal border crossings for december, but multiple news outlets have reported that more than 300,000 migrants have crossed the border last month, which would be a new record. what i have a hard time compro men'sing is why president biden thinks -- compro hencing why president biden thinks that's a good idea. it's his policies that are responsible because they're like a mag yet. they a -- like a magnet. they attract people from around the world who show up at our border and either claim asylum, only to be put o

two of the five bills that are noted are my bills with senator cornyn. one was actually passed through the senate and is awaiting action in the house and the other is a shield act and i do appreciate the support of that bill. this is about revenge porn. the fbi director testified before this committee and there have been over 20 suicides of kids attributed to online revenge porn in just the last year. but for those parents out there and those families, this is for them and the child and this is about it not happening to other children. i know, parents luke brigitte nooring in hastings, minnesota. brigitte lost her teenage son after he took a fentanyl-laced pill that he purchased on the internet. amy neville is also here. platform, got the pill. amy neville is also here. her son alexander was only 14 when he died after taking a pill he didn't know was actually fentanyl. we are starting a law enforcement campaign, one pill kills in minnesota going to the schools with the sheriffs and law enforcement, but the way to stop it is yes at the borders and the poi

john cornyn is a good example. not the trump establishment but the senate establishment. he told the houston chronicle last year, i think president trump's time has passed him by. i don't think president trump understands when you run in the general election, you have to people to voters beyond your base. the exact point that you were just making. last night, cornyn came around and he won't to twitter and x and posted, republicans need to rally around a single candidate. and it is clear, trump is the republicans' voters' choice. now, it's interesting how he phrased it. it's the same way that ron desantis phrased it which is not, donald trump is the best. i love him. he's awesome. he will be a great president again. it's, it's obvious this is what the voters want. hence, i am joining the parade. >> and i think we'll hear that quite a bit in the next coming days and weeks as more jump on the trump train who may, as a way to not completely alienate what they've said before. this is clearly what the voters want. at the same time, interestingly enough with cornyn and others, y

among them, senator lindsey graham and senator john cornyn, who both have demanded strikes on tehran.help us understand more about the attack and the reaction to it, let's bring in an expert in electronic warfare and air defense at the oil united services institute, and also with us, the former u.s. envoy for middle et peace. if i could start with you, please, address the issue of how much control iran has over these groups. >> we don't really know. what we have said definitively is that iran is funding and training and supporting these groups. we have not yet established definitively where there iran order this attack or intended for to be escalation, intending american soldiers to be killed. that is one of the things we are evaluating. christian: the president has a range of responses on his desk. one would imagine because this is the first time u.s. sdiers have been killed that it needs to look different to earlier responses to attacks thereave been on u.s. bases. how fast should he go and what should he be looking at? frank: you will see us strike back very hard at iranian militia

we were talking about -- >> john cornyn said he believes this is one of the best agreements you'll be able to get. what you said to your conference that maybe the republican president you would be able to get a better deal. they disagree with that. they say not going to get 60 votes in the senate. >> if the best we can get does not solve the problem and not stem the flow, then it's not acceptable in the house side. i said that very clearly from take one. very have to solve the problem. this is not about getting political points for one side or the other. it's about solving a problem that say crisis for every community. every state say border state now. people are going all across the country. we found out that 60% to 70% of the people crossing the border are single adult males within the ages of 18 and 40. these are not huddled masses of families seek ago sigh lum. these are individuals, single males coming into the country for we don't know what. this is serious business. the facts are alarming and the american people are sufficiently, i think, alarmed by. this they want us to make a

this is what cornyn said in 2023. i think president trump's time has passed him by.on't think president trump understands when you run in a general election, you have to appeal to voters beyond your base. this boils down to electability. i have been through quite a few elections in your life there's no prize for coming in second, in other words losing. he joined 30 total senate republicans in endorsing donald trump. >> yeah, joy. i think john cornyn would say exactly the same thing today that donald trump is not the republican party's strongest candidate against joe biden. but i think what it reflects and the reason that the framing of this conversation you're having now is so important is it has become obvious the trajectory of trump's authoritarianism rise. what i mean by that is consider in 2016, as he secured the nomination, there were a lot of people who were not ready to endorse him. marco rubio, ted cruz, paul ryan, leaders were not ready to endorse him. even the party said some voters, should i vote for hillary clinton instead of donald trump. there was this

there has been no vote in the senate. >> well, john cornyn have said that they believe that this is onee best agreements that you would be able to get, and they said that what you said to your conference, that maybe with a republican president, you would be able to get a better deal. they disagree with that, they say, it is not going to get 60 votes in the senate. >> if the best we can get is not solving the isn't stemming the flow, it will not be acceptable on the house side. i have said that very clearly from day one. we have to solve the problem. this is not about getting political points for one side or the other, it is about solving the problem that is not -- now a crisis for every community. every state is a border state now because people are going all across the country. and by the way, when we were at eagle pass, we found out that 60 to 70% of the people crossing the border down there are single adult males between the ages of 18 and 40. these are not huddled masses of families seeking asylum, these are individuals, single males, coming into the country for we don't know what.

senator cornyn is a former judge. there's a lot of weight, i think, that's beginning to develop in the senate. the house is a completely different story. thanks so much to you, kate snow, for coming out. i know you have been on top of this for a long time. of course, ryan nobles, busy day on the hill. and alex for being with us. >>> speaking of the hill, spotlight on the speaker. mike johnson hits the house floor to sell his opposition to a bipartisan border bill in the senate -- from the senate, rather. that's next when "andrea mitchell reports" will be back in 60 seconds. don't go away. you are watching msnbc. hing msnc t a migraine when it strikes and prevent migraine attacks, all in one. don't take if allergic to nurtec. allergic reactions can occur, even days after using. most common side effects were nausea, indigestion, and stomach pain. ask about nurtec odt.

thank you, senator cornyn for thatth introduction.ity you described i'm here representing the views i'm going to express to the views of my own. i would like to begin with one single observation and it is this. what this committee does or does not do will have a profound o impact on violent crime in our country. i am convinced of this because as a federal prosecutor when our nation faced similar problems in the mid-ar 1980s. crime was skyrocketing. congress responded and responded with legislative programs and statutes that allowed federal prosecutors to team up with thestate and local law enforcemt partners and to go after they after themost violent criminalsr country. the program worked. a violent crime began to turn around by 1991 as we continue to fill our prisons with violent offenders from across the country over the next two decades and by 2014 violent crime had been cut in half. then in 2015 we began to see a rise and an increase in violent crime. to those of us who were participants in the system this wase no surprise because

to john cornyn. and you are going to hear a lot of easy talk about let's just go after iran. and that is fairly easy coming from people who don't then have to go deal with and the then what questions that would arise from it. i suspect that the president has already mapped out what those options would be, or his aides have. but my guess is that you will find some in between option chosen. politics of this are all bad for him because former president trump is out there saying this they ever would have happened if i was there, they would have respected me more. well, things like this did happen of course when president trump was president. and it was president trump who had to pull back from attacking iran directly at one point, wisely i think, because he faceds exact same problems that president biden does now. >> ookay. david sanger, thank you so much for your incites. >>> u.n. agency in gaza is urging countries to reconsider cutting off funding over allegations that staff members were involved in the october 7 hamas attacks on israel. australia uaustralia is the lat suspend

what cornyn was talking about which is very important we need to make certain that we stem the flow at the border. i was at the white house yesterday. he himself said in a meeting the border is broken. and we can't just do that by providing additional funds to aid and assistance to people who come across the border. we have to secure the border. and that's the negotiations ongoing in the senate. they're working on a bill right now. both mcconnell and schumer represented yesterday in the meeting at the white house that they thought that the bill that was coming forward would be a really good discussion point. but absolutely i think the american people believe as the president did when he proposed this billboarder security has to be part of this package, and it has to be meaningful. >> but you're willing to compromise with democrats on this, right? >> i think the fact the republicans have the house and the democrats have the senate. and the democrats always has to by the way work on a bipartisan basis as you know, and the president sees the hands of the democrats, we're going to end up w

john cornyn and others like lindsey graham not mincing words. what do you think an appropriate response is? are those republican senators wrong or is it time to hit iran? >> they are wrong. you know who hasn't said that is donald trump because this country doesn't want us in another middle east war. i can't imagine that that would be a upon you 00 lar popular platform to run on. this country is weary after 20 yeefrs afghanistan. my view is that the president will be judicious. he has said clearly that the people who killed our service members need to be brought to justice and he will take appropriate action without escalating this into a long middle east war. >> and he is also clearancing a reporter last twheek so far the strikes have not been deterrent. so what can you do differently is the question. i do want to get you on the immigration deal. chris murphy told dana bash yesterday that we may be able to see the legislative text of a bipartisan border security bill this week. a couple things that sources tell us that it would do, give the pres

cornyn: mr. president, are we in a quorum call? the presiding officer: we are not. mr. cornyn: mr.ion in the last few days made another reckless attempt to try to appease its more radical of its political case. last week the administration halted new liquefied natural gas projects effectively chilling new investments in the industry that powers the united states and many of our closest allies. had the administration announced had the administration announced had the administration announces decision three years ago is alm unthinkable. russia's unprovoked war in ukraine is nearing the two-year mark. iran's terrorist proxies are unleashing chaos on the middle east and china, is responsible for growing tensions in the indo-pacific. time, i think we would all have to agree. given that the instigators of each of these conflicts are three of the world's largest natural gas producers, this is an extremely risky time for energy security. fortunately the united states is in a uniquely strong position to temper those risks. we are the world's largest natural gas producer and last year we bec

john cornyn tweeted, target tehran.o these attacks must be devastating military retaliation against iran's terrorist forces. now, we all agree something needs to happen in response. but they all had this position for a long time. what's that about? >> i think the first thing is, look, this is a terrible tragedy. it is fortunate, although any loss of life is too much. it's fortunate and worth noting that we've lost fewer service members during the biden administration than we did during the trump administration. but again, any loss of life is too many lives lost. we have to retaliate. but we also have to manage the potential for an escalation, and that is a very real risk in the region. it is a tinderbox. and i trust secretary austin, secretary blinken, and the president of the united states himself, to calibrate that retaliation. and to your point, lindsey, tom, john cornyn, these guys have been waking up every morning looking for an opportunity to engage in a kinetic action against iran since i got to senate 11 years a

and tonight, in the wake of trump's victory in new hampshire, senat john cornyn has said republicansto unite around one candidate and that candidate should be donald trump. that's an interesting position for him to take, given that only last year john cornyn, same guy, said donald trump cannot win in 2024. what this is full consolidation of the republican party behind donald trump. it raises a question of what room there is for nikki haley to make progress among republicans. given the result tonight, given her performance among republicans voters in new hampshire and overall margin in new hampshire, what is her deer trail out of this particular wilderness? let's head over to steve kornacki at the big board. >> take a look here, the latest results. i think this does, let's get new hampshire up here, let's go to the question here -- as soon as i can get it up the screen. okay, the question here of what haley is going to come out of new hampshire with tonight, which case to the final margin, which gets to where she's getting her vote from, where donald trump is getting his votes from. w

cornyn: mr.sident, it's common knowledge that america's southern border has been in crisis since president biden took office three years ago. since then, 6.7 million, 6.7 million migrants have showed up at the border only to be released by the biden administration into the interior of the united states. that's 6.7 million people, is higher than the obama and the trump administration combined, and that was over a period of 12 years. in just three years we've experienced more illegal immigration than we did in the preceding 12 years. despite the eye-popping statistics, leaders in the biden administration have repeatedly tried to mislead the american people into believing everything at the border is just hunky-dory. in other words, they're saying don't believe your lying eyes. president biden has consistently attempted to down play concerns about the border crisis. of course my state, the state of texas, which has 1,200 miles of common border with mexico, we are ground zero. but the president has ev

joining us now, republican senator john cornyn. great state of texas.-a-car in georgia and i felt good. not really sure why. i like texas. i really, really like texas and i was proud to be driving that thing around. people staid out of my way. dammit. is this going to happen, do you think? where do we stand right now? >> speaker johnson has two-vote margin in the house. his hope is to get, move forward four separate operations bills off the 12 we're supposed to pass each year. i'm afraid the time is so late and the time is so short, i should say, between now and january the 19th that in all likelihood we'll have to pass another short-term continuing resolution in order to try to get the appropriations process in place. but this could ask have been avd if we'd simply started earlier. the senate passed, appropriations committee, 12 bipartisan appropriation bills ready for action on the floor of the senate last summer, but now time is so compressed and the deadline so short i'm afraid we're looking at another short-term continuing resolution. >> normal ame

in personal direct conversations today on the floor of the senate with mcconnell, with thune, with cornyngotiators, senators murphy and sinema, i'm convinced that republican leadership in the senate still wants to get this deal done because they badly want to support ukraine. but there is a significant group in the republican caucus here in the senate, the freedom caucus of the senate, that wants us to get nothing done. >> help me understand then, when mitch mcconnell says the politics are changed, your sense of what it is he's referring to. >> so he explained that in much more detail in a direct conversation we had today and made forceful statements in front of his caucus at lunch today. he is recognizing that his caucus is divided, that there are some very loud voices that are opposing the border security deal that senator lankford at senator mcconnell's encouragement and direction negotiated. senator mcconnell asserted he still wants to move ahead with aid to ukraine and a border security deal, senators thune and cornyn, pris principal lieutenants repeated that in the hallway and on th

john cornyn at senator from texas to said it's time no talk gets turned on. mitch mcconnell, who's the leader of the republicans in the senate, said that, well, joe biden talks about not responding uh with the they'll be a retaliation at the time and choosing the can't respond with half measures or with hesitation. and there shouldn't be much more force shown by now. you'll remember that since the start of the watering does the white house drill, biden's white house has been clear that he didn't want to see an escalation of the war. and he didn't want to see it spread to become a much wider conflict. and they were seeing that they didn't want not know. general wesley clark, a former democratic presidential hopeful, and former leader of nature, the military commander for mitchell. he said that by saying that there should be no expansion of the one that has invited the sort of attack, so they'll be a lot of eyes on joe biden in the next 48 hours to see how he responds to that. so yeah, a lot of eyes on by the name data, adam fisher in washington dc. many science, a lot of groups, coal, t
