joining me now is chris murphy, democratic senator. welcome, senator murphy.ree with jerrold nadler? >> i'm not going to give the house advice. on whether or not to proceed with impeachment. it's important to get the full report from the special investigator. let's be clear. we have reached a new level in the investigation. the special counsel is starting to show his cards. and these are very serious allegations. this is a president named as a co-conspirator. allegations he committed at least two felonies to try to manipulate the 2016 election. but marco rubio is not wrong that it's important for congress to know all of the facts. to see the evidence that mueller has that leads him to make the filings. >> you heard what jerrold nadler said, though. is it, from what you have seen, an impeachable offense? he doesn't necessarily say the committee should take it up. >> i think you are beyond the stage that led to impeachment proceedings against president clinton, whether or not you think that was worthy of impeachment or not. i still think it's important for congr

one of the sponsors of that bill, chris murphy, who sits on the senate judiciary committee.the time for us today. >> thanks for having me. >> is this bill more symbolic than anything else? >> it's not symbolic and by the way there's no ongoing investigation as to whether the saudis ordered the murder of jamal khashoggi. we know they did. it's not an open ended question. this legislation that will pass the senate is very important, since the war act of 1973 that congress has used it to pull the united states out of hostilities abroad. the united states is helping the saudis in a civil war inside yemen where 85,000 kids have died of starvation and disease in part because u.s.-made bombs are hitting civilian targets and this is mohammed bin salman's top policy priority. it's an important resolution in and of itself because it gets the united states out of potential war crimes but it also sends a message to the saudis that we can't be in business with you if you are going to lie to us, as they did over the several weeks after the khashoggi murder. >> secretary of state mike pomp

we heard from democratic senator chris murphy saying pompeo and mattis were misleading us.did mislead, what is the consequence for them? >> i plane, omean, one this evet -- thing that is so striking to me is we seem to forget that mike pompeo was director of the cia just last year. it's stunning to have a former cia director now seemingly wanting to throw the work of his former agency under the bus. you know, it just speaks to -- it calls into question the judgment when they're making assessments on who america should be in bed with basically. and so if we have so much evidence that's pointing to the violent tendencies, the recklessness of mohammed bin salman, it absolutely undermines the credibility of mike pompeo and secretary mattis and only sets them up for first confrontations with our lawmakers. >> as far as consequences are concerned, would you -- what would justice look like, if they are misleading? >> right. i man, from the very start, right here, right now today, the fact that a former -- or the saudi ambassador flew to washington, business as usual, likely with a

. >> laura, senator chris murphy this morning called on the special counsel to get the investigationp as soon as possible because they want to look at the evidence which is typically something that we hear from republicans, not democrats. what do you think is behind this? >> i think everyone is a little bit antsy to see what mueller's got. and it is clear in the court filings from friday that he has got the receipts. he has the evidence. and they are circling closer and closer to formally accusing trump multiple crimes, money laundering, campaign finance violations, obstruction of justice, collusion with russia. and so i think the democrats in the house are basically just champing at the bit and in the senate are champing at the bit to go after trump to talk about what happens next, impeachment, what do we do. but i don't know that it is necessarily the smartest thing to try to rush mueller. let him take his time. the man is clearly doing something right. >> gabe, i mentioned as you walked in to the studio a really juicy piece you wrote about a thursday night party. and an engagement

. >> meantime we have senator chris murphy saying that it is already beyond the stage that led to impeachments against president clinton. doug, too soon to talk impeachment? >> the key thing is that robert mueller didn't have to indict trump for congress to impeach him. that is an important point. because what donald trump is trying to do now, he knows the mueller report will be terrible, it will have all sorts of sore rid details about his financial world and about his family dealings in russia. it will be a nightmare. but it will get -- if mueller doesn't indict him, trump will say see, now it is a political you issue, and if they move to p impeach me, i will survive things the way bill clinton survived things. so i think that the democratic party has to kick it down the road a bit and just start letting the facts unravel. during rather gait we had a committee where people could watch on television getting involved with watergate proceedings. we don't have that right now. and so i think angus king was right, only about a third of the country is on board right now. so we need more informatio

that was a push led by chris murphy.hat begined some steam after some of the stuff about the crown prince came out. beyond that tths it's unclear w more tangible things they do. some want to cut off arms sales. there are others who might warrant to very directly sanction the crown prince and other members of the royal family for this murder. it's going to be up to mitch mcconnell. he's held his cards close to ve the vest but saying the senate is struggling to find a response. >> what's your sense on the hill there? i'll read part of that resolution. expressing the sense of the senate that crown prince mohammed bin salman be held accountable for contributing to the humanitarian crisis in yemen and jailing and torture of activists sninside the kingdom saudi arabia. the unjustified master's degree of journalist jamal khashoggi. to pass a resolution like that would be a statement but what's your sense on the ground that something more substantive will happen in. >> there's plenty of support for symbolic resolution on this. a

. >> joining me now senator chris murphy.esident said, i hate the coverup, but the crown prince hates it more than i do, does that make sense to you? i don't understand -- it just sounds ludicrous. >> it makes just as much sense as everything else out of the president's mouth on foreign policy. of course it makes no sense why, because the saudi royal family, the government of saudi arabia was lying to us, and to the world for two straight weeks. you can't paper over the fact that they said he left the consulate. and that is what they told our government, the american public and the world for 14 days until finally they knew they couldn't get away with that lie any longer. so the coverup was run by the saudi government and muhammad bin salman the ground prince is effectively in chargeof national security inside saudi arabia. so the coverup was led by the saudi royal family and everybody knows that. >> it's not like muhammad bin salman is just on the sidelines and powerless in the face of this massive coveri iucoverup b forces

senator chris murphy, and others have proposed a buy in. one of the nice features is that you have a program in place with rates set, and it is provider networks. it is an easy transition for people uninsured or unable to afford coverage. another benefit of it is that, when you have a public option you are also able to use the market to compete. a lot of this mechanism, something like medicaid might be offered on the exchanges, that could also bring down private prices by offering competition. host: george in ocala, florida. caller: hello, everyone. socialism is dying around the world, taken over by global capitalism. obama wanted to move further to it. women tell us not to tell them what to do with their bodies. he told us what to do with our entire bodies. you are using the word mandate. why not use the word dictate. it is ridiculous. if you took away socialized medicine, medicine would become competitive again. doctors would have to pay to write prices. in medicare, people use five times what they pay in. one third of that is in the last

democratic senator chris murphy of connecticut co-sponsored the bill. >> i i think todayay is a waterd moment foror congress. we are really asserting our responsibility to be a co-equal branch with the executive in foreign policymaking. it is a role that congress has abdicated for decades. and what we showed in this vote today is republicans and democrats are ready to get back into business of working with a president -- and sometimes against a president -- to set the foreign policy of this nation. amy: but the bill is not expected to pass the house this year. on thursday, house republicans narrowly passed a farm bill which included a provision blocking a war powers resolution vote on yemen. the u.s.-backed saudi war has devastated yemen. a new report says half of yemen's 28 million people are now food insecure. nearly people died in yemen just 3000 0 st month, making it the deadliest month in the past two years of war. on thursday, warring parties in yemen agreed to a ceasefire in the strategic port city of hodeida. in another vote related to saudi arabia, senators again rebuked presi

and chris murphy of connecticut who has been pounding the table against u.s. support for the war since 2013, i want to safe. these are people who stay on top of these issues closely. there are 535 examples of people on the hill who are following something closely. there is a member of congress from arkansas who just made it possible for his constituents to text him. he is on top of the way members of congress communicate with constituents. one of the great things about covering congress is, if you care about anything in the world of policy, somebody on the hill wants to talk to you. they want to make a case for why things are good or bad. totakes a little floosing figure out which ones your trust, and that's the biggest part of reporting here. that's my in a nutshell. margaret: a lot of this is right in front of you. if you took out a pad and pen, you could draw a circle that started in the oval office and remind yourself of the connections that you know are there. the president's office of legislative affairs. that is their job, right? there are the lawmakers

. >> let's listen to what democratic senator chris murphy had to say about the cia director gina haspel's my understanding is that the cia's briefing this morning was very different from the cia department and state department briefing. secretary mattis and secretary pompeo didn't want congress to know what the cia knew. >> mieke eoyang, how will this change -- how will these dynamics change in january when the democrats take over the house of representatives. the committee you worked on, the house intelligence committee, when it's controlled by democrats, how will they handle a situation like this? >> yeah, when it democrats have the gavel they can compel agency officials to come before them and tell them what they know. there'll be no more of this hide the ball, at least as far as the house is concerned. and because they can move legislation through the chamber at the speed they want and the kind of legislation they want, the senate and the trump administration will be forced to vote on or make decisions on pieces of legislation that will hold them accountable and they will have to eith

your democrat colleague chris murphy said, quote, she isn't qualified. do you stand?r this job? >> i'm willing to give any nominee a chance, but i do know that she has very little experience other than being a fox news host. she's only been at the state department since 2017. but i'm willing to give her a chance and see what she can do if she is given the position. >> what would you ask her? >> i would ask her what her views are in terms of the united states' standing in the world, whether we should be working with our allies or being alone as we are right now. and what her views are of saudi arabia and their brazen murder and torture and dismemberment of a u.s. resident journalist. >> important questions. thank you very much, congressman ted lieu, for being with us today. have a nice weekend. >> thank you, poppy. >> jim. >> interesting interview there, poppy. >> a republican official in texas says there's a push to oust him solely because he is a muslim. we'll speak with him live next. now, lashes go fully fanned. lash sensational full-fan mascara from maybelline new

now, one of the sponsors on this bill, democrat chris murphy, said that this is -- represents the firmestdi arabia, the u.s. congress has given in the history of our relationship, and this is in no small part by the administration's handling of the aftermath of the murder of jamal khashoggi, a number of republicans and democrats have had it with saudi arabia, want the administration to go much further, are frustrated with the president's siding with the crown prince and they believe that the cia has been unambiguous in its own determination but at the same time, erin, some republicans are siding with the president, including in the house where they took steps to deny this resolution from coming forward for a vote. this resolution to pull back support for the saudi-led war in yemen. however, in the senate, other actions bound to take shape, including formally placing the blame on crown prince mohammed bin salman. expect that to take place in the coming days. if that passes both chambers, that would head to the president and he would have to sign it or veto it. >> intelligence community opp

and the resolution i authored with senator mike lee and senator chris murphy which i hope will come upor next week, we got it out of committee, basically says that the united states has got to end its participation in this horrible, destructive war led by saudi arabia. >> i want to play something else that your republican colleague, senator corker, said today. >> what i do know is that, you know, the cia director came in and with some analysts and gave the most precise presentation i've ever heard in 12 years, and i left there, as i mentioned, somebody came up today and corrected me on my comments yesterday when i said if he went before a jury, he'd be found guilty in 30 minutes. one of my colleagues came up and said, no, no, no, no, 20. >> your bill calls for the end of u.s. support for the war in yemen within 30 days. we've certainly now started to hear some of the strongest language yet from republicans over the last few days in terms of taking action against saudi arabia. do you think the tide is it turning here? >> oh, yeah, no question about it. senator lee and senator murphy and
