let's listen to jen psaki on msnbc here.ch. >> jen psaki, you had this surprise press conference by hunter biden -- >> yeah. >> did it help or did it hurt? >> look, i think you're, like, please, hunter biden, we know your dad loves you. please stop talking in public. elizabeth: okay. but he's still talking, right? what do you make of that out of jen psaki? >> he has an excellent lawyer, abbe lowell, and lowell knew he was going to lose in the court of law. he couldn't prevent the senate, the house in this case, from interrogating him first in private, then in public. that's a losing argument legal arely. but i think they thought it was a winning argument in the court of public relations, and they may be right about that. the american public wonders why not allow him to testify in public. let us all a hear what he has to say. so is i suspect he's going to continue to talk in order to try to win the case for himself in the court of pluck opinion. now, obviously -- public opinion. now, obviously, if daddy call as and says, no,

jen psaki is right about that. the base of the democratic party does not want rethe system allow people in if they are supposed to come in. and we want immigrants you have to come here illegally. that's something where i don't think joe biden is going to make the deal. he still governs from the bernie sanders wing of the democratic party. that's what he has done since day one with the spending blowouts and all the different things that he has done as president. he has always caved to the base of the democratic party. he wasn't like that as a senator. he is like that as a president. that is one of the biggest reasons he has collapsed as president. he is governing frghts far left. and it's too his own detriment and to our country's detriment. >> laura: chris, i think the images of thousands and thousands of people, many of them working age men, tens of thousands of chinese coming in to the united states i don't think that is something that they can message away images. i don't think it works at all. not on this issue

the time to worry about what jen psaki is talking about was before hunter got indicted when they wereake that whole case go away. now obviously he is indicted and not one but two cases. he will be out there publicly, as is his lawyer, speaking and excruciating for the president. the thing i think about the "washington post" report that david was speaking about is i would be very concerned about that. there is a confluence of events we've seen. david axelrod says maybe biden shouldn't run. a "wall street journal" report it seems like obama is saying the same thing. >> dana: i saw that. >> and two indictments. this report what astonished me was not only the details but it's a 4,000 word report. they spent weeks on it and dropped it at any time and it dredges up stuff that has been kind of vaguely known for years and that joe biden must have thought that he had survived that long ago, and here it is again right at a time when a lot of top democrats are saying maybe time for him to get out. >> dana: what lies beneath scenarios. andy mccarthy, thank you. good luck to your son calling the h

he told jen psaki that house republicans are extreme.avid: of course. >> i would say it's more rheothrx of the extremism that has metastasized within the republican party. most of the imper criminal day tay i've seen suggests that independent voters do not at the end of the day or rather are not tuning in to this farce of a process that republicans initiated against president biden. lauren: i think impeachment is political. independents but republicans and democrats think the process has been becaused over the years. trump was in impeached two times. david: that's right. lauren: it is political. david: lauren, thank you very much. check the markets before break and they're in the green and all the markets in the green and dow gain as little and s&p up almost 20. migrant families in new york city facing evictions from the city which he willers and why they're being -- city shelters and why maher being kicked out now. the biden administration pushing for more restrictions on offshore oil and gas drilling. is it too late to reverse course a

by the way, i agree with jen psaki. i thought the stunt he pulled the other day, why didn't he just go in and talk to congress, if he doesn't have anything to hide, if he's perfectly okay and noun this is below board, why didn't he comply with the subpoena? i think actually this is like the third or fourth time where hunter biden's has gone out of his way to draw attention to his legal issues. remember when he sued the mother of his child, his love child, again going to court to talk about child payments and i guess that was settled eventually. why would he do that? it's almost like he hates his father and wants to destroy his presidency. obviously we don't think it's true but it's pretty bizarre behavior from a guy who supportedly is supportive of his father. maria: could you imagine if an ordinary citizen defied a subpoena but showed up on the steps of the capitol and tried to give a press conference. >> if you're a republican, you would be in jail. maria: we are just getting started this hour. it's been a great year

look at what jen psaki was saying over the weekend.saying the goal now is to make people fearful that trump could win. to see these polls, lawrence, and say he could be back. if you don't vote for -- hold your nose and vote for joe biden, he'll be back. that's a heck of a strategy. do you think it will work? brian, i don't think it's working. sand speciaespecially when it ds will immigration. immigrants came the legal way. give you an example. i was talking to my friend earlier. he was an italian immigrant. he came on the boat. and he is furious what what is happening. sir, we were talking earlier. and brian was just asking. they have been demonizing donald trump and saying that he is hateful because he wants a secure border. as an immigrant, how do you feel about what's happening? >> i came from italy when i was 17. i broke my back. i was an ice man when i came here. we did work when we came to this country. we didn't get it for free. we didn't ask anybody else to give us money. so we did it. now these people come in border. the borde

secretary jen psaki, in my opinion, she was going to send a fleet to the shores of belarus, fourth, ito put the svisloch or dig a canal on naroch, yes, well, just imagine, if at this level a person is an absolute amateur, of course in the intelligence services, i ’m sorry, i’ll just pick it up, recently john bolton, yes, so, literally yesterday, it means he saw the light and said that russia has a large army, a large territory and a lot of people. someone probably gave him a map or a reference book, well, excuse me, please, no, no, no, everything is correct, well, in general, it’s possible, of course, on the one hand this is a reason for smile, come on, come on, let steve finish the thought. at a certain moment of this madness in order to say that the only proactive moment for containing russia or china, for example, may be that we drop an atomic bomb on the same territory of belarus, yes, because the united states will not suffer from this, as it was in japan, and what will happen to us, they don’t really care about it, he doesn’t care, so i want to draw attention to the words of ale

>> he actively avoids the press and general psaki admitted she tried to shield him from answering questions directly from reporters because she was so nervous about the optics of his answer and whether he'd gaffe and blunder his way through it. obviously he does. so again, we're seeing a return to the basement from biden. he's campaigning for reelection, or so he claims, he's still the president for now, and yet he's hiding away in the white house, he's hiding in delaware, and now he's hiding down in st. croix. ashley: yeah, he's the leader of the free world. he's the leader of the most powerful country on earth, and his demeanor and the things that he does just is not, you know, project that. anyway, i want to move on because new york times op ed says this, a trump conviction could cost him enough voters to tip the election. that's their theory but, you know, it doesn't look that way because when you look at the polls, trump has a slight lead over biden. so the question i have for you, kkaylee, what do you think? would he fall short if there was an actual conviction or not? jowski that's t

an obama and biden official, jen psaki said, "part of the rite, of passage in a white house is talkingto bob woodward." i remember a part of me thinking, cool, i love his writing and his books. that comes also with a dose of anxiety when you're in a white house he's writing about. >> look, an important lesson after nixon resigned, catherine graham, who was the publisher, owner of "the washington post" sent carl bernstein and myself a letter. let me give you some advice. beware the demon pomposity. beware the demon pomposity. and that's really good advice. people don't like pomposity. you said earlier that somehow my coming into do something on a white house is inevitable. boy, i don't look at it that way. >> you don't? >> no. i look at it as it's always hard. it's always harder than you think. you don't know who might talk. george w. bush, fleischer's boss, i did more than 10 hours of interviews with him. and for four books or three of them he agreed to talk to me. and his father, bush sr., george herbert walker bush, who was president didn't like me, didn't talk to me. national, i'll

>> marie: there are a lot of -- jen psaki.ad a different take that i want to say quickly i have not said on air before, when i saw him there, i am glad he is trying to defend himself and talk about his own story, the media has been painting a story who he is and when he said there are some trying to weaponize my father's love for me during a difficult time in my life, i actually think that there are democrats who think he shouldn't do that, he needs to say, i will testify before congress and publicly, i will sit in front of the american people, i thought it was good for him to defend himself. >> harris: okay, that is your take, don't blame the media painting it. >> marie: republicans in congress. >> there is laptop from hell that allowed hunter to paint hunter biden for the rest of us. the idea he is a victim is insane to me, to the very least he's a man that made terrible decisions and had every excuse not to. the irs tax thing, i don't want people to pay more taxes than she has to. it is not her taxes that matter, we know ab
