democratic party come along with it, let's see, the liar, shifty adam schiff, maxine waters, jerrold nadlerdemocrats sharpening their knives against president trump's. many top house democrats planning nonstop investigations into the president. all designed to make him look bad. how does that whole help we, the people? how does that help the american still in poverty and food stamps and out of work? today, the president responded to these threats. and guess what? sometimes, what is good for the goose is good for the gander, and it works both ways. take a look. >> are you offering a my way or highway scenario to the democrats? you are saying that if they start investigating you, that you can play that game and investigate them? can you compartmentalize at that. >> president trump: i know more than they do. >> can you compartmentalize that and still continue to work with them for the benefit of the rest of the country, or are all that's off? >> president trump: if they do that, it is a warlike posture. >> sean: currently, nancy pelosi has an average approval rating, a whopping 27.. by the way

you heard jerrold nadler say he doesn't think it is. your husband raised this question. he said that mr. trump's installation of matthew whitaker after forcing the resignation of jeff sessions is unconstitutional and it's illegal and it means that anything mr. whitaker does or tries to do is invalid. at that same press conference on friday the president was asked about it. >> kellyanne conway's husband -- >> you mean mr. kellyanne conway? >> he wrote that you were unconstitutionally appointing people. >> he's trying to get publicity for himself. why don't you do this, ask kellyanne conway that question. >> here we are. >> here we are. >> a few things. spouses disagree every day. i'm sure you can appreciate that. >> you don't agree with your husband's argument? >> no. it's not relevant. people disagree on the constitution. we have a u.s. circuit court system there to interpret the law and they disagree about the constitution regularly. i think there's something else instructive here. the president's lawyers told him it's constitutional. there's a statute from 1998, the va

jerrold nadler and elijah cummings. congressman cummings, let me begin with you. you heard the president there. he said if democrats investigate, it would be a war like posture. are you ready to go to war? >> i'm not going to war with anyone. i'm going to do what the american people said they wanted us to do through this election, even in trump country they're saying we want transparency. we want honesty and integrity. they want something else. they want accountability with regard to this president. that is exactly what i'm going to do. if i'm blessed to have that opportunity and this is what the constitution requires. we'll do our part. george, i'm not going to be handing out subpoenas like somebody's handing out candy on halloween. as a lawyer and officer of the court, i take subpoenas seriously. i plan to -- if i have to use them, they'll be used in a methodical way and it must be in the public interest. we have a lot to do. i'm laser focused on those issues that even president trump says he wants to work on, such as prescription drug prices, the high price of

jerrold nadler, the congressman from new york, currently the ranking democrat on the judiciary committee, meaning he's the likely ranking chairman of that committee, when the 116th congress gavels in, part of his statement saying, we're immediately issuing multiple letters to key officials demanding they preserve all relevant documents related to this action, talking about the mueller investigation, make sure that the investigation and any evidence remains safe from improper interference or destruction. one more from the likely incoming speaker, nancy pelosi, it's impossible to read attorney general session's firing as anything other than a plateant attempt by donald trump to undermine special counsel mulers' investigation. from nancy pelosi. the balance of power in the u.s. senate. 97 senate seats, totaled 35 elections, 97 decided with three outstanding races. one of those is in arizona where the two congresswomen, mart why mcsally and sinema face each other. 9.3 for congresswoman mcsally. sinema at 48.4. florida next, incumbent senator bill nelson trailing rick scott, governor of flori

jerrold nadler/ (d) judiciary cmte ranking member: "our very first witness on -- after january 3, wewe will summon, if necessary, subpoena mr. whitaker."jake tapper/ reporting:"and what will you ask mr. whitaker? "rep. jerrold nadler/ (d) judiciary cmte ranking member:"well, the questions we will ask him will be about his expressed hostility to the investigation, and how he can possibly supervise it." president trump meanwhile -- while on an international trip to paris to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the end of world war i -- kept his attention on important events unfolding in the u-s -- taking to twitter to spread false or unsubstantiated claims.trump made wild accusations of election fraud and theft without evidence, saying the state of florida should abandon its legally-mandated recount and just go with the incomplete results of election night.and trump incorrectly claiming the catastrophic california wildfires are caused by poor forest management, angering some firefighter groups, who called trump's tweets "reckless and insulting".

. >>> currently the democratic ranking member of the house judiciary committee, jerrold nadler, calling on acting attorney general matthew whitaker. joining me now the staff writer for the hill, sean sullivan, congressional reporter for the "washington post" and gabe sherman, special correspondent for "vanity fair" and an msnbc contributor. melanie, you first here. the congressman also said that protecting mueller's probe is a top priority and you're writing about that in your laste elates. what are democrats doing to keep it protected? >> a couple things. and they're not waiting until janua january. there's urgency to protect the mueller probe so nancy pelosi organized an emergency conversation with rank-and-file democrats and leaders of these investigative committees to talk about their next steps and they're talking about attaching protections to a must-pass spending bill for a few agencies so that could be a big fight and could lead to a shutdown if they demand that. >> they're sent letters demanding critical documents are preserved and if documents are destroyed that would be a cri

squared, cubed, orders of magnitude because jerrold nadler, the incoming head of the judiciary committee overheard by mollie hemingway talking about impeaching justice kavanaugh. i mean, this is truly the lunatics have taken over the asylum, it appears, in the form of new democratic leadership in the house. >> yeah, i think you hit the nail on the head there. there's a lot of sensible people who i think would tell you quietly and off the record that this is a really bad idea, not just substantively but politically because it can only, if the emptiness of these investigations and the vigor with which they'll go at them can only help the president as far as the 2020 re-election bid is concerned, so, you know, the problem is -- i think the base and particularly the money that represents the bloodstream of the party at this point has moved way to the left, and they want these investigations whether they're a good idea or not, and the base is going to be served. lou: very quickly, andy. the president says he and the senate will return in kind if the house insists upon these vacuous investigat

and next to her was jerrold nadler, having loud phone conversations what he plans to do looking backwards at russia and brett kavanaugh for new investigations. kennedy: wow, that turned around. >> there may be democrats looking to put forward a positive agenda but others looking to fight base warfare to please constituents. kennedy: i don't know, man, this whole thing, it's crazy because democrats are really struggling to find who they are. i was talking to a liberal friend of mean the other day, he said what does a libertarian democrat look like? i don't think there is such a thing. >> i'm not sure i know what that would look like. they're big government people controlling your pressure points. >> there's a lot of people in the democratic coalition for the -- among the very far left socialist, they have ocasio-cortez, other victories. kennedy: pay for it! how do you pay for medicare? you pay for it. that's what you do. everyone knows that, i'm a congressman now. >> exactly. 50,000 activists who work for the democratic socialists of america. the average age of a member of the organization

reporter: 's house gets taken back democratic chairs and the congress could be jerrold nadler of newk leading judiciary adam schiff of california leading intelligence and mac the waters of california leading . if they are steering committee for them to investigate all kinds of matters about president trump in his in ministration. martha: no doubt. thank you, mike. bret: examples have been around since the 1950s. fox news has used them for nearly 20 years but now we are making a change to fox news voter analysis. you to explain what that is and how it works, fox news night at night anger shannon bream and the director of the fox news decision team on [inaudible]. explain in simple terms over doing and what the changes.. >> we decided after 2016 we neededt with the huge growth of absentee voters in early voters in racine that right now in the data with the fact that in 2018 over six of the top 11 senate races are going to be held in states where over two thirds of the vote is coming early we decided we needed a different approach in his or voters never acceptable but they just vote ear

jerrold nadler, likely chair of the judiciary committee, overheard on a train from new york to d.c.ragging about his plan to launch full-scale investigations again after two years into russian collusion. a plot to impeach judge kavanaugh, good luck with that. he is not the only democrat planning endless investigations. likely incoming house intel chair -- really the biggest liar in congress -- adam schiff wants to be a tv host on msnbc, he has a similar plan, take a look. >> while the republicans walked away from the investigation, the democratic minority has continued, and we have been bringing witnesses and, learning more. at that work won't stop when we take the majority, but we will be able to get answers to republicans who are unwilling to pursue, records they wouldn't ask for, the question though, that i don't know whether mueller has been able to answer because i don't know whether he has been given the license to look into it, where the russians laundering money through the trump organization? that will be a very high priority to get an answer to, for the reason that if they

. >> when i had congressman jerrold nadler, democrat from new york, on my sunday show, on "state of the union" in all likely he'll be the chairman of the house judiciary committee. he said they're going to call matt whitaker, the acting attorney general, before his committee and demand that he testify about all sorts of things about whether or not his appointment was constitutional since he was never senate confirmed, about whether or not he intends to rein in mueller. democrats had no power, no ability to do that before, and we're also going to see, for instance, in the house intelligence committee, adam schiff is likely going to be the chairman. nia, he's likely going to kick-start the russia investigation that the republicans on the house intelligence committee essentially ended. >> yeah. and maybe at some point get donald trump's tax returns. this is something that democrats at the grassroots level really want to see from this congress. >> the ways and means committee, yeah. >> some people have talked about impeachment, and you've heard from other folks in the house, democrats. they

jerrold nadler, very, very feisty democrat from manhattan, will be the chairman of the house judiciary committee. we assume. congressman elijah cummings, who's been the ranking democrat on the house oversight and government reform committee, he's been through republicans controlling that committee, darrell issa's tenure, trey gowdy's tenure, the benghazi -- >> so contentious. >> the benghazi investigation and all the like. now finally he will be able to be the chairman of that committee. and look right next to richie neal at the bottom right. adam schiff. zplun like richard neal he is on tv a lot. >> adam schiff is on tv a lot and he will be the chairman of the house intelligence committee, which used to be a very successfully bipartisan committee, and under devin nunes, who is now going to be in all likelihood the ranking republican, has completely devolved. and adam schiff is going to have a choice. is he going to try to bring the committee back to what it used to be where it was bipartisan, where democrats and republicans would sign off on investigations together, what it was like u

. >> jon: members of her caucus like maxine waters and jerrold nadler who head up important committeesat regime, they are saying they intend to subpoena the white house and begin investigative procedures. you don't think that will help them with the american people? >> well, it didn't help us. we went through a big investigation of bill clinton and ended up losing five seats in 1998. ultimately the american people want to see you get something done. now again look, i'm very much for congressional oversight. i believe in the balance between the different branches and i think it's totally legitimate to do serious oversight. but, for example, if they try to subpoena all of the president's personal tax records, that will just lead to the supreme court. that will get tied up in court so fast that nothing will be happening. the real question is i expect them to do some investigating. they should do some investigating but does that become the brand that they carry into the election? if all that is obstructionist investigating democratic party, that's a weak brand to take into the presidential

it also says on the house side where democrats will assume in january, jerrold nadler of new mr.as pledged to make whitaker his first hearing witness and subpoena him if necessary. there will be consequences for firing mr. mueller. mr. nadler and other democratic n have put the justice department on notice -- they will request access to communications. bruce in fort myers, florida, you are next. hello. caller: good morning. workedlder man now who 50 years. i worked regular employment for 50 years and had the honor of a state -- being committee member in new jersey when i was 20 years old. i consider that an honor. sent by my peers to represent them. that being said, we don't discuss politics -- i am half italian and half polish and we have very nice meetings when we get together for holidays. i live in fort myers on the rest of my family lives in orlando and we are all old and enjoy getting together. we come and the era from, paterson, new jersey originally and i explain my ancestry. we get together and there is a lot of food and it is important we have good get-togethers. i am v
