can't work. we have to fix the and byron meant. there is so much we need to do to find your passion, do whatever that is, whatever you want to be involved with. go for it. even if you are working in another job, find the time to change, to create change. that is the only way we're going to get to where we want to be. >> that does it for us on this addition of morning joe. msnbc the weekend starts right now. >> good morning, it is sunday, january 14th. i am alicia none does, with simone townsend, and michael steele. these are the stories we are following today. we are one day into the iowa caucuses. the standard poll shows donald trump has a commanding lead. ahead, our team coverage, on

the ground. we talk to the pollster behind those numbers, jen sulzer. it could be a crisis averted for now. developing overnight, congressional leaders says they will pass a stopgap spending bill pushing government funding bills to march. jeremy raskin is demanding donald trump give back nearly 1 million dollars, from former governments, while he was president. we will ask him how far he will take that fight. grab your coffee, settle in, and welcome to the weekend. we are 36 hours away from the start of the iowa caucuses. i cannot believe it either. it is the first opportunity for republicans to vote for or against donald trump since he was charged with 91 felonies. not a normal election. the final iowa poll released late saturday night shows trump maintaining his dominant lead

amongst the gop contenders. the nbc news des moines register shows 40% support among likely caucus voters. nikki haley is up 20%. ron desantis is at 16%. a one wildcard factor, the winter weather could impact turnout across the strait. the plus of snow last week, iowa could see its coldest caucus day in decades. i feel, my instinct is to ask you to place wager on who will win this caucus. it would be the easiest bet i would ever ask you to make. >> would you like to put $1,000 on it? i'm looking to come up. i'm looking to come up with shoe money. look, what's so interesting about iowa, and having been at the caucuses this time, 2020, four years ago, at a primary, it usually surprises you. the last time the des moines

registered poll had some serious issues. therefore, the poll had a impact on the race. but, voters and iowa, they look to this last des moines register poll, this year, and conjunction with nbc news, as a barometer on what to do when they go to caucus. i think the numbers showing trump with this chasm of a lead, and nikki haley edging out desantis, it is key. the people who do go unconscious tomorrow, nikki haley could hold those numbers. rhonda santas stays what every other republican did. the dollar 99 count. he focused on iowa. it didn't matter. once they got to know him, they liked him. >> this was never that race. it hasn't been that race for over a year. everyone is focused on iowa like something phantasmagoria will happen here. it is not. it won't be donald trump. it has been donald trump.

he is carrying two thirds of the evangelical vote. that is a significant part of the vote that will come out at the caucus. he is best in everyone in the field, 48 to 42. haley, desantis, ramaswamy, they're 42 points. trump is at 48. that is a bad number for him. he's down from 51. the reality is, this is why a lot of politicos, more and more, you'll see this, at of this election, republicans will have to contend with it as well such as democrats dead. this is a caucus, folks. this is not a primary. you have got to get people going to -- >> four hours. >> this is not something that is over and 30 minutes. >> you have to stand in the corner for hours. it is cold outside. this process is just ridiculous. the fact that we're hinging so

much on the, what the outcome here is for the rest of the race, it is a typical political cycle. that is the game that we play. for this one, this is donald trump's. i don't care if he wins it by 48 or two. it's his. the reality is, the parties, they are going to play it out. all these races, they never mattered. >> if he was invited, it's a problem. i was listening -- >> before donald trump. >> yes, donald trump. i don't think that's the case. i was listening to the -- he has the podcast. he does these deep dives on the various races. it was so interesting. the question became, what would have happened if all of the anti trump vote, or the not trump people pull less behind nikki haley instead of ron desantis. think about it. early on, so many people put ron desantis in their baskets.

that was disappointing. i say disappointing because if you look at the centers on the campaign trail, he does not look like he enjoys it. he is not a great campaign or. there are missed moments. what if those eggs were put and nikki haley's basket? >> i think there will be a lot of people asking what s. there are two dynamics i am watching in iowa, and i'm curious how thick it extrapolate to the general election. one, the success that you see trump having in polling. with first-time caucus votes. the ability to take someone who is not involved in the process, that can be tricky for pollsters during the last two elections. accounting for those voters. also, for the first time, he has a ground game. it was chaos the first time he did it. it was not the traditional infrastructure. this time, there was actually an apparatus in place to turn people out. >> yeah. >> i mean that as it relates to the general. i look forward to the general. if this is a trump campaign,

that is actually going to be organized and have a ground operation, this is a campaign able to pull out first-time voters, those are additional challenges that we were facing years ago. >> he pulled out additional voters. >> yeah, again, he is going to pull out additional voters which is something democrats have to account for. you cannot sit back and think every voter is an anti trump voter, or will be. there is a larger well of support for him than manifest and polling, that manifest in the verbiage that you hear reported on the news. a lot of those folks are silent participants. they like trump. they keep that to themselves. when they have action, they go back. that won't be the campaign. i do take your point about the organization. to step that game up. it tells me that they want to play hard in this race. they know they need to play hard in this race. >> joining from the capitol

hill correspondent, and nbc news correspondent van hillyard in des moines. friends, it is a real tell that yesterday we saw our friend, vaughn hillyard, out in the snow. we almost couldn't see what was behind him it was just that cold. you have both been moved indoors. i am not a weather reporter, nor are you, yet that is the big story going into this caucus. >> ali. >> that is something that our colleague loves to do. the idea that we are weather reporters at the end of the day. here, it's true. politics and weather go hand in hand on election day as you all know. now, we are inside because if it was possible, yesterday it was one or two degrees, this morning it was even colder. i love you guys, i'm so excited for this weekend show, but i am not standing outside in negative ten or 15 degrees to talk to you about politics. that's what the voters will have to go through as well. when you look at our new polls,

that came out overnight, the idea that nikki haley might have and enthusiasm problem, that is not something campaigners tell me they feel, but it is something we have to take into account as she asked people, much like the rest are, to bundle up, throwing a front, and get to a caucus site. that is always a big ask, for the reasons you were outlining. the idea that it is not a simple go in, place your vote, then your out the door. this is something that requires you to invest your time, energy, to actually be among people in your community, cajoling them to your cause. we remember what this look like and 2020. i was there for that caucus, i was here in 2016 as well. this is my third one. what is so striking about, and i'm interested in one of onset, we did both of these caucuses together in 16 and 20. now we're doing it in 24. what i am shocked by, you have to get the campaigns to argue with you about how they think people will place. everyone is trying to argue

they have a shot at first. i think what is so joint fort lee's i talk to the healy campaign, desantis campaign, they argue they have a chance at second. that is shocking, because trump is so far out ahead, but it also allows anyone who is watching as a political junkie to get inside, under the hood up what these campaigns think about in terms of how they run along with iowa. for the haley campaign, their strategy is to knock out wrong desantis and i want my finishing in second. if they don't do that, they still feel okay about the fact that they can go on to new hampshire, and have that as a state they can win. just like in 2020 when i covered elizabeth warren, the question was, if you don't win in new hampshire or iowa, where you went? you can't get the nomination if you have not won a state. for nikki haley, that question can be answered by polls and new hampshire. desantis, not winning an iowa, a state he went all in and said

he would win, even a few weeks ago. that is looking like a difficult hill to climb. it is something he will have to answer for going forward. nikki haley will have to answer for, after they do iowa, new hampshire, and you had a, they have to end up in south carolina. that looks like trump country. despite the fact that nikki haley is a twice statewide election official there, and it is her own state. >> vaughn, one desantis, if you just think back to seven, eight months ago, folks were talking as though he was winning the iowa caucus. the governor of iowa has endorsed him. you look at the des moines register, it is not looking great for ron desantis. what is his campaign saying? i know donald trump's campaign is say this is a race for the first loser in iowa, at this point. should we be on ron desantis dropout watch giving these

numbers? >> absolutely. look, the state of iowa, the amount of investment, not only from the campaign but from the super pac. it was tremendous. this was largely the same campaign, political operation that was operating ted cruz's billing years ago. they continue to make the case that they only butter the organization years ago. the only way to better the organization is to have a better turnout. now, the polling suggest that won't happen. i was with, as ali said, ali and i went to the state eight years ago, two events. i think sometimes we have to simplify politics. if we say caucus is about turnout, what better place to look at than the turnout of rallies. last night, ron desantis had a turnout here, where we're standing. about 200 people in the crowd. it was interesting because a

couple of us were saying this is a good crowd. then you put it in perspective, that's a small donald trump event. we see hundreds of thousands of folks and i will coming up for donald trump. we, over the course of the last year, we keep coming back. donald trump is the grandfather of today's republican party. grandfather's only strengthened with every passing year. it is hard to take the knife away from the grandfather at thanksgiving, when he is in charge of the turkey. maybe the turkey wasn't all that great, and there is questionable sides, but guess what? which cousin, which aunt, which second cousin, many of them he brought into the family for thanksgiving. which of them are going to go to him and say put the knife down, someone else is in charge? right now, not only do you see from this election, but by and large, elected officials, that's for kim reynolds, she is the odd one out here, but they have come over the last year to

say, donald trump is no longer in charge. frankly, the cousins, they're going to the electorate, they don't appear ready to do so either. >> that is a messed up thanksgiving. >> come on, cousins. >> that is one messed up thanksgiving dinner. who is carving the turkey? ali, as we digest that part of -- >> can i get some wind with this? >> the electorate, i'm sorry. >> a lot of time on the road, guys, okay? >> the electorates are the cousins. governor reynolds is the great on tv. >> the rich auntie. the cranberries. then there is that crazy uncle who brings the pound cake, but made it with fruit. anyway, ali --

i want to get, i want to get your sense, i think a lot of this top line is whether, the organizational structure. at the end of the day, us all campaigns do, they go down to how these people feel about the candidates. even in a caucus state, they matter more because you are turning out in that regard. how do you see the translation coming out of iowa, into new hampshire, for all of these candidates? maybe desantis drops out or whatever, the reality is, the play among the voters is going to be the important thing. what do you think, do it a little forecasting ahead, voters looking at iowa are saying, okay, they're coming here next. does this change for them? what happens? or does it solidify the opportunity. particularly given that new

hampshire has more democrats at play. >> so, i'll do a little forecasting, then a lot of forecasting. i've been thinking near term and for term on this. in the primary, the way that nikki haley is trying to win is by pulling in those independents, and, maybe some democrats in iowa. certainly some in new hampshire. that is a democratic play, you are watching this play out. nick they are trying to look at suburban areas around major cities, so in lynn county, around des moines. all of these areas, they've been spending time. it's more moderate, there putting this together in iowa. the way they're hoping to -- is by continuing the narrative of an upper trajectory. she's had that, they see that in the latest poll, in the pole

right before that came out. that is the narrative they want to underscore, but the campaign says, if you want to send just comes and second, that's the least they can do giving the i'm not above ground game he has put into the state. then you look to new hampshire, see halle again, that coalition of people who are not your faithful, but everyone else in the party. michael made a good point, if you look at everyone in the party, that group, they're still not pulling at the level above were trump's out. at least in -- the thing i think about, the voters i speak to in iowa, at haley evans, they say they don't want to vote for trump. they are past trump voters, but had a breaking point with him, january six or something else, or they never voted for him and don't want to be put in a position again. the question i ask, what happens in a general election

of a trump versus biden? almost all of them, dozens of conversations that over the last two weeks i've been here. almost all say, don't probably just stay home at general election. i do think that is a striking thing. if you think how voters are metabolizing this, they say voters are looking at each other, but there is a general election at the end of this primary. if you want to talk about what side to bring, bring a one. voters will be exhausted by what they have been through in this primary, and if they're getting a matchup again. on the republican side, people are unhappy about that. >> they may not be meteorologist, but they can forecast. ali and ron, thank you so much. next, it looks like the government will stay open for now. republicans are just kicking the can down the road. you are watching the weekend. stay with us. stay with us

down the road when it comes to keeping the government running. last, night gop leadership raised a deal with senate democrats to a point a partial shutdown this week. the new spending deal would keep the government open until march. it needs to pat both the house and senate before saturday. so, friends, let's put up a

calendar. i think that's important to understand. the context of what we're talking about here. they're saying, we are going to do this in march. guess what? march 1st, first new funding deadline. then there's something called super tuesday on march 5th. march 7th, the president will talk about things relating to the state of the union including this budget process. march 8th, the second new funding deadline. what is it about the and ability of congress to actually just get it done? given all the political dynamics that are at play here, now you're going to layer this political events, super tuesday, along with a big national event, the state of the union. how do they think this plays out in terms of what voters think, and how the president is going to leverage that conversation with the country. >> this is not normal. i think it's important for people to understand that when speaker johnson put forward the

idea of a two-part resolution, see our, when he did that, initially, democrats were like, we, what is this? this is like a partial government shutdown. the reality is, to teared resolution has never been done before. we're getting to the space where not only are continuing resolutions the way that congress conducts business, there, this is not, if any one of us showed up to work, and did what house republicans are doing, we would not have a job. that is incumbent on what we get at state of the union. joe biden, president joe biden standing in front of the american people, talking about his agenda. you won't get a campaign and joe biden, who will -- who is across the nose with their and ability. >> i think he should bob him across the nose, i think the

other thing that would be telling is to keep it short. to keep it to context, short, around this. i think, to your point about the presidential piece, that is what i don't understand about this. the republicans are half stepping that is. they think it won't be a good outcome. you still have to deal with what happens after march 8th. the fact is. super tuesday will be one thing, a lot happening. if you're running against the guy at the podium, at the state of the union, you think you'd give him less to work with. >> especially because trump wants to have this wrapped up. there is the possibility that it is a binary race between movie between the general of donald trump and joe biden. if there is still a race that is competitive going into super tuesday. >> this race is competitive. >> but if -- >> what's and your coffee?

>> the point i want to make is i think donald trump believes in and push him to have congress be dysfunctional. to have a congress led by republicans be dysfunctional. the concern you hear over this is not coming from the trump caucus. it is coming from people who are actually in moderate districts, where there are worried about independent voters, and democratic voters showing up and saying, this is not how -- to your point, 20 and 2020, this is one of those folks. say we have another. i think they are really going to kick the can down the road to march 1st and seven, but you will end up with a similar deal that the democrats and republicans already negotiated. >> all of this, they are hinging on the question of immigration and changes they want to see, to the immigration system.

it will admit to children died crossinghe rio grande. this is what i want to focus on. it was prevented from intervening. they were barred by texas officials. physically barred. this is what abbott wants. he has been saying texas has done everything but shoot these migrants. he let them drown. i understand we have differences and how this country works, i understand there are people that do not want migrants to enter, where is your humanity? if you do not think it is the governments will to save a life. what is the baseline point from the pro line party? >> you can go into the water, rescue them, put them back on the other shore if you don't want them on our shore. you do not leave them to drown.

this one's on the governor. his forces are preventing forces, law enforcement from saving the lives, in this case. i cannot begin to put my head around it. i've never seen that lack of humanity displays so callously, so recklessly. you would leave these three individuals to struggle the way they have. >> i was scanning through the pages of the texas newspapers, this did not make the front pages. i think we are becoming numb to the plight of people. no one wants to leave home, folks. people coming to the united states be at the southern border are folks who are fleeing violence, famine, poverty. they would prefer to stay where they are. these are families, mothers, children. i am actually disgusted with

where we have landed here. >> as government officials that are pushing this, this mindset down into the culture in a way, this is a consequence and a result. congressman jamie raskin is demanding donald trump give back the nearly $8 million he has from foreign governments while he was president. he joins us next at the table. you're watching the weekend. watching the weekend.

does nothing wrong. jamie raskin of maryland joins us now. he is the ranking member of the house oversight committee. congressman, thank you so much for being here with us. you sent a letter to donald trump on friday to mandate that he returned about seven point $8 million. have you got a response from the former president? >> no response yet. i should point out quickly, that is a fraction of what he got. that represented two, years the first two years up the presidency. we did not get the second two years because this cut off discovery, at least according to trump lawyers. they told us they don't have to turn anything else over. we had two years for only four of donald trump's businesses, that is 500 businesses. that was 20 countries of 195 countries. so in case people are coming up to me and say, $8 million, we thought he was taking a lot

more than that. that just scratches the surface. >> some of the biggest spenders were saudi arabia, china, they spend this money at this hotel, his golf clubs, chairmen, as we discussed, when this first broke, he reminded me of the -- we all became experts during this time. this is a clear violation. >> that is part of the thing. the constitution says the president, or any federal official cannot accept a president -- which is an officer title, of any kind, or whatever, that is in the constitution, from a prince, a foreign government, without the consent of congress. donald trump came to congress zero times to asked to keep this money. if you look at the history from washington and, barack obama, no one did anything remotely like that. abraham lincoln got these two elephant tests that he loved from the king of silent during the civil war. he went to congress and said,

can't we keep these? congress said, no. and he promptly turned them over. you recall, obama was given a peace prize, he was told, well it doesn't violate the text of the clause, because the nobel committee is not the sudanese government, but the spirit of it, he turned the money over. one point $3 million. john f. kennedy, ireland says we need to make you a citizen, we love you so much. that doesn't technically violate the text of the claws, but the spirit, certainly. he turned it down. donald trump has done something that has never been done before. he tried to turn the presidency into a moneymaking enterprise. he did. now, they're saying he did not take his federal salary. that is all your allowed to take. you're not supposed to be on the payroll for saudi monarchs and chinese communist project.

you are supposed to paid by the american people. they say he returned the profits from the foreign governments. that's not what the constitution says. it doesn't say he can keep the profits. cases you can't keep $1 without going to congress. do you think congress would allow him to keep seven point $8 million? come to congress and we will decide. at this point, he is long overdue. pay the money back. >> it's not just his sons who are talking about that, he, himself, was at a fox town's hall. he says this before you ask put the money back. take a listen, we'll discuss on the other side. >> when somebody comes in from china, that is a small amount of money. it's a small -- i was doing services for them. i don't get $8 million for doing nothing for my country. >> he admitted it. >> he was told by george w. bush ethics adviser that he absolutely had to divest himself from the businesses, as other presidents have done, or put it into a trust.

in any event, he couldn't take money from foreign governments. former president trump said if somebody comes from china, they can stay for themselves. someone from china can. the government of china itself, they cannot be putting money into donald trump's pocket any more than the murderous monarch of saudi arabia who is another spender there. we're talking about millions of dollars, hundreds of thousands of dollars, and went the -- was over, muhammad -- gave two billion dollars to trump's son-in-law, kushner, who launched his own business. a sovereign national fund adviser says don't do it. these people don't have experience. the crown prince overruled them. the whole administration, trump was saying, tell pencil than he owes us, we covered his, like, we saved his, blank, when he ordered for the assassination of jamal --

so we show in our report, all the specific things trump was doing for these foreign states. in the meantime, they're talking about hunter biden who wasn't even a public official. donald trump, you saw him compare himself to hunter biden who is a private citizen who was doing this that. it is clear from the constitution, the president himself cannot be pocketed money from kings and princes. >> he doesn't look at himself that way, he is, because i wanted, i need to get it. i want to thank and welcome all of you at the maryland corner. >> we had to do something about this maryland corner. >> congressman, i want to shift gears quick. around the budget conversation happening on the hill right now. a deal has been put in place for consideration with the senate leadership. the speaker, speaker johnson, has said, and appears to be

holding his ground on the deal. what is your sense of this budget process, how do you feel as we were talking in the last segment about this bifurcated process, which has never happened before, how does this play out, what impact can and have after getting something done longer term. >> there is so much dysfunction in the republican congress. i think speaker johnson knows he can't allow the government to shut down. it is beyond them. so they've got this bifurcated staged approach. it is a fundamental responsibility of congress to keep the government open and going. it is enormously wasteful to continue to lurch from crisis to crisis. we're saying that has to stop. their majority has done it to. kevin mccarthy quick, george

santos was expelled. another congressman, johnson, he is resigning, i think they are down to two. the democrats will win our seat back in new york third congressional district. they have a very precarious governing margin because of their own chaos and stability. they should make sure we will have a budget, commit to that. then we can talk about other things. the economy is going great under president biden. we added 14 million jobs. 4% inflation or less for 23 months now. why do they want to wreck the economy? i don't get it. >> congressman raskin, you will stay with us because we have more questions. after the break, we'll discuss house republicans relentless attacks on hunter biden. be sure to follow our show across social media. our handle everywhere is at the

weekend msnbc. we will be right back. ill be right back. rsv can severely affect the lungs and lower airways. but i'm protected with arexvy. arexvy is a vaccine used to prevent lower respiratory disease from rsv in people 60 years and older. rsv can be serious for those over 60, including those with asthma, diabetes, copd, and certain other conditions. but i'm protected. arexvy is proven to be over 82% effective in preventing lower respiratory disease from rsv and over 94% effective in those with these health conditions. arexvy does not protect everyone and is not for those with severe allergic reactions to its ingredients. those with weakened immune systems may have a lower response to the vaccine. the most common side effects are injection site pain, fatigue, muscle pain, headache, and joint pain. i chose arexvy.

up their game. you get the sense that you've had enough. okay, we get at. we see how you are running this committee. how you want to do the nations of business. is there this, not concern so much, but this general sense that we need to start drawing these lines around impeachment, budget, these things that republicans have kind of dominated the national conversation for a while. >> i think joe biden laid down the gauntlet with his valley forge speech. that emboldened all of us to take the gloves off and say we're going to articulate precisely what is at stake in this election. i have told my gop colleagues that when we get through this period, when will defeat trump and trumpism. they won't be a fit for selling flowers and incense. they are acting like members of a religious cult who have no critical thinking skills left.

they won't fall exactly what trump tells them to do. >> it strikes me as, and the chairman points out, you all see more coordinated on the oversight committee. the democrats do. are you happy leads prior to these hearings? you can't give away all your secrets if you'd like, we take them at the table. >> we have a top secret recipe. we have meetings, we have phone calls. we analyze what is going on. we go out, and we try to tell the truth. like my members, we are the truth squad, they are devoted to getting the truth out there, explaining it in terms that america can understand. i've had republicans come over to talk to me from the oversight committee. we wish you had the types of meetings and colchicine that you do. we have a remarkable members. these members are totally different. they feel the stakes in this election. >> we are talking about --

it reminded me how in 2021, the supreme court had the opportunity to take up to cases related to this. court watchers felt they passed on it because they wanted to get past trump. this is an important point in retrospect. i want you to talk about the cases that could be coming before this supreme court related to donald trump. through that lens, through that lens of a court that two years ago, they thought there would be an opportunity for them to not reckoned with it. >> it's a beautiful point. we went over the senate and the impeachment trial, second impeachment trial. i was the key to the team, a lot of republicans felt, we will pass this. we'll let someone else deal with donald trump. mcconnell caught up and explained he didn't vote to convict. not because donald trump isn't guilty. he was morally, ethically, factually responsible. the senate as not have jurisdiction to try a former president, which goes against two centuries of precedent. in any event, he let them off

on a technicality. then he said, we'll let the courts deal with it. there can be criminal prosecution later. i think some people in the supreme court might be thinking, let's kick this back over to congress, or the people. we'll let them deal with it. the 14th amendment says that nobody who swears an oath to support the constitution of the united states, that violates that oath by engaging an insurrection or rebellion, shall never be allowed to hold federal or state office again. unless the congress reverses that divestment of ability to serve by two thirds vote. it is very clear. if you are an original, as a textualist, if you want to go by the language of the constitution, it is clear. it is the supreme law of the land. the question is, what we follow that or not? i was a little despairing that the supreme court would take the responsibility seriously. until last week, when trump's lawyers went to the d.c. circuit on a different case and

said that trump, or any other president, has agreed to order assassinations of people, and cannot be prosecuted for that unless first and peach or convicted. if they can run out the clock and say the senate doesn't have jurisdiction to hold a trial, then they act with complete impunity. in fact, if they want, they can kill members of the house or senate, for the majority who want to impeach him. the president could order killers in the supreme court. i think that might weaken the supreme court up. wait a second, do we want the blood on our hands, if this obvious insurrectionist is set back to office? we are not going to do our job, we will kick that away and come up with an off ramp excuse. then we'll be responsible for him being back in office? and the end of our system of constitutional government. i think they'll have to think hard about that, even the ones most and the take. those like thomas, or --
