of the republican party couldn't get along and it led to boehner's demise. how long paul ryan stays is a different story. it's never a good luck when the speaker of the house and the majority leader have to fight off a discharge petition coming with their own members involved. we haven't seen this very often.

up next, former house speaker john boehner drops a big one tonight.id there's no longer a republican party. just a trump party. he said the real cop was off taking a nap. i think he was having a bloody mary earlier in the day when he said this. he did say it. that's a morning drink. he said the republicans seem comfortable taking on trump. they don't unless they're safely headed out of washington. isn't that the pattern? only with the door slamming them from behind do they tell the truth about their president? this is "hardball" where the action is. about your brokerage fees. fees? what did you have in mind? i don't know. $4.95 per trade? uhhh and i was wondering if your brokerage offers some sort of guarantee? guarantee? where we can get our fees and commissions back if we're not happy. so can you offer me what schwab is offering? what's with all the questions? ask your broker if they're offering $4.95 online equity trades and a satisfaction guarantee. if you don't like their answer, ask again at schwab. when you said youe, sir. were at the doctor, b

now, president obama had to call john boehner that night because he needed to congratulate boehner on becoming the new speaker of the house. he had to offer his congratulations for boehner ousting the president's own party from power and taking control of congress. and they did so with an exclamation point that year. in the 2010 midterms, democrats lost six seats in the u.s. senate, they lost 63 seats in the house. 63! 63 seats that had been held by a democrat instead flipped to a republican. one of the biggest single election swings in u.s. history. maybe the biggest. putting in that conciliatory phone call to the guy who had just kicked his team out of congress, that was not the last indignity that president obama would face over that huge electoral loss, because in addition to calling john boehner from the treaty room alone that night, the next day, he had to go out in front of everybody and face the press. >> some election nights are more fun than others. some are exhilarating, some are humbling. but every election, regardless of who wins and who loses is is a reminder that in our

that was john boehner circa 2015. he's john boehner circle 2018.turbed, even more tanned, he high on life. and i bet being on the board of that marijuana company isn't hurting either. so fret not, if you don't like the times we're living in, they will change. because in the same way this woman is all of us now, this man is who we can be -- working and bloody mary at the same time. speaker boehner, cheers to you, my friend. that's all for tonight. back tomorrow with more "mtp daily." "the beat with ari melber" starts right now. >> did you ever serve those bloody marys on "meet the press"? >> sunday mornings. that's how you survive in the trump era. >> can't hurt to get the guests talking. >> mimosas and -- we try to balance it out. >> are you a mimosa guy? >> no, i'm a bloody mary guy. >> the more you know. thank you chuck todd. >>> i turn to something important, the top story in america tonight is donald trump, your president, pardoning criminals. now trump's not even pretending this is about due process. he's ignoring the justice department's revi

incredible point is that the candidate mr boehner was the first saying us as stay in the e.u. in the euro zone but there's to be more stronger in the east if you show to bring some good point at home what might that alice said today in a t.v. conference was that it was not ok in the past you criticize the you so can you imagine a democracy where an minister cannot be a minister because he has some political idea you can be else you can be a problem you've been dried just guilty for something by you cannot be a problem if you have some good idea. the former italian prime minister matteo renzi is the latest guest on r.t. sophie and co discussing why the country is so politically divided and you can watch the full interview later today we have a lot of single problem a single issue is surely migrants surely the lack of employment govern employment is one of the most important problem of my county but in general a part of europe wasn't going to be in finance now because it was not working for many counties in the score after all so you for using the boat. some countries very rich

speaker boehner, cheers to you, my friend. that's all for tonight. back tomorrow with more "mtp daily."

john boehner is saying get busy enough good things they are selling you know. in our story roll. it all out in the zone to see an old told. the. my company on v.m.s. no longer has the. john. lucas no. no no no i was told and told them to come up as soon and not that i'm no longer young a long lost coming soon and. doug sounding. a little suspicious it. seems to me. that you can do live shows it seems. the simplest. book. there was. to get up there never been. told it's good to know i don't know the book the moment the bad news i'm not going to come i'm going to. close some and know. these alibi. souls good. bye to god and go to the m.s.c. i'm going to grab this thing don't they oh by. the rolling stone as soon as. i'm going to come you know the mysterious cold man dispute i'm going to jump. up to come stronger soon at the time no i'm not going to close the book no higher because. the bad news comes. food is. good. news. broke last. zico it seems. to me. show you a. song a song a. song a song or. it's a. song on. the song best song on. jan to. see you know. you can sing. a good sh

an interview with the financial times that might have screeched the markets but again now that mr boehner reportedly declined to do that so at the end of the day it came down to a complete stand of tween the two sides and mr manager has said he wouldn't budge on this issue ok now and earlier today the foreign policy chief enrico bugger rainy told reporters that she had confidence in the italian president and his decisions but let's take a listen to that and some confidence that is how has the differences and to present to the public will prove to be as always serving the interest of the italian citizens that by the way coincides also on par with the strength of the european union i noticed today that the trust level of trust that italians have in the european union has gone up in the last days it's now forty one percent i believe this is something we should on track to what. philip federica maria mcgreevey saying there that the italian people trust italy's institutions that italians trust in the e.u. is growing but that's quite a claim in light of election results isn't a yes i think it c

sergio mazzariello vetoed the nomination by five star and bullied for economy minister paolo some boehner now mr sivana is in the cabinet but he's e.u. affairs minister so probably some scope for him to still ruffle feathers with brussels. why do them that there's a new foreign minister who served under a previous technocrat government who will be seen perhaps as a more moderate figure by other e.u. leaders but just on thursday night as it emerged that this deal had had gone through matteo salvini head of the league said that he was fed up of seeing italian governments go to brussels putting out the begging cap that came just a few hours after. the head of the european commission said that what it's really needed was less corruption and more hard work so there seems to already be a war of words between the incoming government here and top officials in brussels that might worry not just other heads of government but again the financial markets if they think that there's going to be a big clash coming up there's a big summit in the u. summit in june where we're likely to see a lot of fricti

the speaker of the house in this book -- most didn't think that's john boehner many are john boehners-- the mastery of keeping caucus together is nancy pelosi. so i blend blair into what i think is a pretty damn good speaker of the house of representatives. >> thank you this question might be self-serving with steve but how did you get your start in politics was it locally? >> it is well self-serving because he was the first volunteer i had running for office named grg and i haven't seen him in a long time, and i trained you well, greg. >> you did, thank you. >> how did i get my start in politics i thought he was trying to fish for a compliment so my first election get ready for this nelson my very first lex was i ran or for president of my high school. general douglas macarthur high school in douglas, new york under the sophisticated slogan don't be dizzy vote for izzy.

of the republican party couldn't get along and it led to boehner's demise.. it's never a good luck when the speaker of the house and the majority leader have to fight off a discharge petition coming with their own members involved. we haven't seen this very often. they're very rarely successful. but this one, they only need about five more republicans in order to bring these immigration bills to the floor for a vote, bypassing the committee, because it's been held up for so long. you have a lot of members, particularly moderates, who are facing tough reelection. and the issue of immigration affects their districts. so either they've decided to not run for reelection anymore and retire, or they've decided for their political lives they'll have to do something. i think the american people are on the side of doing something finally about dreamers in this country. we've reached a point where it's becoming untenable not to do anything anymore. and republicans are looking at a way to try to do this in a bipartisan fashion, not only because it's the right thing to

i remember when boehner was trying to avoid setting up a benghazi investigation. once the media and the members ginned up about it how do you go to a town hall and explain well it's not that bad. >> cornell sighed. >> that's not how it works. i'm sorry, but it's absurd. if there is evidence to impeach, impeachment proceedings they will begin impeachment proceedings. what is more telling is republicans now need a process argument to rest their hats on. what happened to the conversation about tax cuts. oh, they are under water. what happened to conversations about health care. people's premiums are going up. they have lost ground on that. now they want to take a process argument into the midterm elections. if you are arguing about process, i don't care if you are republican or democrat, if you are argue being process you are losing your at. >> carry, i thought bernie sanders with me on sunday, two sundays ago, had an interesting way of not talking about impeach men. listen to his answer. >> i am a member of the united states senate. if trump is impeached, i will hav

blow it up or write or even went into detail about how it could be done political commentator john boehner mitch believes the article goes beyond free speach. it's par for the course the people who pose as journalists in washington are nothing more then weaponized lobbyists and so when a lobbying firm attempts to get its bills or its or its funding through for new weapons systems or war systems they often call on one of their in gauged journalists to do the dirty work of saying something publicly that they couldn't dare say and then using the right of freedom of speech in america the journalist can call for anything he wants murder execution bombing attacks on civilian bridges and so on so that's what this is and if we're talking about a new level yes we've hit a new low a new low outward call by a journalist so-called journalist for an attack on a civilian structure. russia has raised concerns about the safety of its journalists in ukraine itself to security forces raided the kiev offices of a russian media group and detained its director kittle vision skee who's in charge of video notice

i really don't recall hearing too many people other than his own party going after john boehner or pauln because they've been around too long, usually that was because they lost political support and nancy pelosi hasn't lost political support. she saw this coming, she's diversified and made her leadership team a lot younger and more millennial friendly and a lot more ready to appeal to a new generation of voters. i think nancy pelosi is smart how she approached this. melissa: she has a lot in her own party, talk about a double standard. annika, a lot of people don't want to campaign with her and don't want her there because she does represent the old guard and being out of touch and just things, that's from democrats that want her money, but don't necessarily want her standing next to themselves, and maybe fear that if you're saying you elect democrats, she's going to be speaker of the house, that may not be a winning message for democrats. >> right, i don't think that is. telling people they are afraid to challenge her leadership. she's the one going to keep the party diverse, as an ol

you'll recall paul ryan and john boehner and others in the house wouldn't move it. >> you had controlall three bodies. >> again, when we focused on trying to solve the dreamer issue, alex, i'll hold you to it. they're hard issues. for some on the right, they don't believe -- >> no. this is -- >> it's disingenuous to say the democrats are not focused on the issue. >> this is a pet peeve of mine. president obama didn't take care of it. he played politics, including democrat. rather than reaching across the aisle to marco rubio, he signed an executive amnesty which has been caught up in the courts and the next president easily revoked. >> jon: we have to dave it up. dave and alex, good discussion. thank you. >> melissa: kim jong-un makes a secret trip to china. what we're learning about the latest meeting ahead of a highly anticipated summit with president trump. hello, aloe. kelp is on the way! with herbal essences bio:renew made with active antioxidants that work from the inside out... to help animate lifeless hair. let life in with herbal essences bio:renew. you wouldn't accept from a

john boehner sold out to barack obama on the budget aspect and then did a discharge petition. happening here. lou: ryan sold out to obama as well and then he would revolted against president trump, the leader of his own party. i mean this is the duplicity and the disgusting cynicism that paul ryan has brought to the speakership in which the conference, as you say, as to timidly followed along. what are the odds -- let's just go back. talk about the process being broken. there was supposed to be a budget resolution last sunday. that was the thrien deadline, r? >> yeah. lou: ryan is so good at his job, where is the budget. he hasn't had a budget, as he ? >> no. lou: he represents the worst of k street, the koch brothers, the chamber of commerce over the american people and it's that straightforward. >> the slight of hand. once again we're out of control. and he vehemently denies that he's not going anywhere. just go back in time, lou. he said with mark over spring break said he wasn't going to resign. and he was not going to run again. and they vehemently said no, that's not the

luckily, boehner texted me yesterday and told me he had something that helps him chill out, somethingdo with grass. i don't really know. anyway, i just wanted to say quick word to congratulate the young men and women receiving scholarships this evening. i was able to visit with them yesterday and it affirmed for me that the future of journalism is bright. my message to the next generation of reporters, know that what you do matters. there is so much noise out there that our republic does not work without an informed electorate. pay attention to the policy, not just the personalities. look at the human impact, not just the horse race. and challenge yourself to challenge us, those of us in public office, because what you do, it really matters. it provides transparency and accountability. done right, journalism cannot just inform but empower citizens. we don't always agree on what is right and what is fair, but that push and pull, that makes us both better. it creates a higher standard. it is part of the genius of this country and it will endure during turbulent times. tonight, i say che

. >> one of my favorite lines from my dear friend, speaker boehner, he said as peeker in -- as a leader there was never a pratt that did not get up every morning with the intention only to do what is in the best interests of the american people and that's saying lot and that's the way it should be and i hope our current administration would take a little close are look at the way president bush conducted himself for the american people. again, off script. sorry, ken. jed, real quick. you have done a lot of work with the labor market and work toast development. what are your thoughts on the idea of the skills gap and leave something workers behind. >> that is quite closely related to the discussion you just having about income inequality. one thing we know is if we look at the earnings distribution in the united states, and if we look at the educational system as it relates to the earnings distribution, one thing that we see is that education here does pretty well for the top third of our earner. it does reasonably well nor next six, but actually the bottom half -- we're knock talk us --
