clyburn? rep.lyburn: when we look at states, i am from a state that in large measure was talked about by the governor of new york. i am from a state that did not expand medicaid. therefore, so much of the burden of trying to meet the challenge of this pandemic goes straight to small communities, local governments, irrespective of what may be happening at the state level. if you are the mayor of a little town of 8000 or 9000 people, i think you ought to be eligible to get direct aid from the congress. and so i have been advocating for a long time and will be advocating very strongly that, whatever we do for state and local governments, do not leave the locals out. and make sure that the small communities get their fair share. haveer pelosi: we may three challenges. thee, county, and then municipalities that mr. clyburn mentioned. in addition to that, we want to expand medicaid and other things that help the states over and above this. how much the states are putting together? $500ave heard the figur

clyburn -- whip of the house mr. clyburn. rep. clyburn: thank you for your leadership and guidance in this important issue. in spite of what attempt may have been made to the contrary, my vision for this great country is drawn from the pledge of allegiance. that pledge, when i was a kid growing up, in south carolina, we used to say the pledge every morning. itemember getting to perfect because i was in school when we changed the pledge to insert the words "under god." i remembered how many times i would have to keep repeating it for failing to put those two words in it when i recited it. pledge with aat phrase that means a lot to me, "with liberty and justice for all." that is what has enlightened me in my service here in the congress. i have always said that my vision for this great country is making its greatness accessible and affordable for all. all over on billboards my congressional district. i believe strongly in that. this country is great, but the greatness is not accessible and affordable for everybody. to me, that is wh

whip clyburn. i was aware of your reputation in that regard, but i know firsthand on your work post-katrina, where it was clear you were there for the people, not for any other agenda than that. and also later when we had the post-2008 downturn in our economy, how you worked to help build us back in a bipartisan way, almost agnostic. does not matter where the ideas are coming from, what matters is what works for the american people. so thank you for your nonpartisan, patriotic leadership. i do want to say that this committee also has a measure of success. as you know, two of the members of the committee, maxine waters and illini velasquez, were instrumental in putting in the bill issues about lower under bank businesses being able to access the loans. we had some concerns with reports that were coming out after the first tranche was spent almost immediately. and so, in the new bill, we put forth a specific carveout for those under bank communities. we are waiting to hear from the secretary today, t

clyburn. rep. clyburn: it is very important for us when we talk about state and local, remember, it is state and local. and the fact that we have had so often is that we get hung up at the state level, then forget that the cities, the counties, even local public service districts, are local governments. and we ought to pay close attention to if they are getting what they need as well. i have beend local, pressing my caucus for years to remember, it did not say all local, it's and local. conscious of that as we have these discussions. spkr. pelosi: if i make, again, more for tomorrow, but since you asked, what our plan is now is to have two separate, maybe even three, state, county, and municipality. and we can take it all the way down, we think to 10000 and fewer. this is a big issue for all the members. the governors have a big problem. they have a big problem in terms of the coronavirus. many of the space -- states that do. meet theiro budget needs, and the community does as well. we expect gover

host: james clyburn on cnn yesterday. what does it take for committee like that to get up and running, and what is been the reaction since nancy pelosi unveiled the program last week? from thee reaction leadership -- one of the reasons nancy pelosi one jim clyburn to lead the committee is he is one of the people who commands a lot of mutual respect. have beenpublicans skeptical about the need for a select committee to look into pandemics and stimulus spending. as jim clyburn was saying on cnn, he also spoke on a special report podcast on friday. he said this is about making sure that people spend this money wisely. not just taxpayer money expenses. this could be the differs between life and death for people. we model this or the truman committee over world war ii. kevin mccarthy and other republicans have said, they don't think this is necessary and it seems redundant. there is oversight authorities that are baked into the last stimulus package in phase three. that is, including -- that is including a special inspector ge

jim clyburn, good man but he is the one who endorsed joe biden the south carolina primary.e is the reason why joe biden won that nomination. this committee is a bipartisan politics. it's about helping joe biden going after the president of the united states, just like the democrats have done since even before the president was elected since they started the trump-russia investigation in 2016. >> mike: you made a good point that it was jim clyburn who resuscitated joe biden's career. now he's down in the basement, we haven't seen much of him. when al gore did his endorseme endorsement, one of the most awkward things i've ever seen. congressman gomer, you might speak to the fact that when al gore was there and joe was giving out some chop word salad you can almost see on al gore's face, what have i done? >> [laughs] it's very hard for me to read a blank face so i can't really comment on what it looks like al gore was thinking from my perspective, but they all looked somewhat uncomfortable when they do that endorsement and to me, that included former president obama. he could'

thank you very much for being with us, house majority whip jim clyburn. thank you again for being with us. >> thank you very much for having me. >> joining me now is the democratic senator from minnesota, amy klobuchar. thank you for being with me. >> thank you, reverend. >> let me start personally, you and i have gotten to know each other in the last few months, i got to know your husband. we sat near each other at all the debates as he was there at ringside cheering you on. we understand that he suffered from a coronavirus attack and that he is -- i believe has gone home now. give us an update on where he is and how this impacted you personally. a lot of people watching need to understand you are not just talking as a political leader, you're talking as one who your loved one, your husband was a victim of this virus. >> exactly. and first of all what a great group you had on the show, and torepresentative clyburn, i did want to address the double standard when it comes to people without money and the minority community. my husband's story is not unlike

the gave clyburn a bear hug. when he got back to the united states, clyburn-mania swept the country. he was invited to the white house to meet with dwight eisenhower. it must be said, eisenhower had no interest in classical music. when his press secretary was asked whether clyburn would play during the visit, he said, i don't think so. and he didn't. people read accounts of clyburn's every move in newspapers and magazines. there were portraits, opinion pieces, discussions of his baptist roots. there were articles on whether his victory in moscow would transform the u.s./soviet relationship. can one imagine such a thing today? wi would the overseas accomplishments of a classical musician capture the attention of the political leaders or newspapers and magazines? would we have a ticker tape parade that would attract 100,000 delirious fans held for an artist with a gift for playing tchaikovsky? i think we know the answer to that is no. in an earlier time, a pianist's triumph coulds me myr s me meme american people.

clyburn the head of it.g to go after the president as they have been doing for four years. lou: is there a strategy, an opportunity for the republicans in the white house and capitol hill to stop this committee and end its nonsense? this is outrageous? >> no, it's going to happen. lou: just by a stroke of the pen in the house? >> it's going to happen. we just have to call it and describe it for what it is. it's another attack on the president. we can communicate the truth and that's what we have been doing for four years every time the democrats attack. they saw the mueller investigation turned up nothing. the impeachment investigation showed there was nothing wrong. the footnotes that have been declassified in the last few weeks showed us that effort was ridiculous. it was based on russian disinformation. they knew they were getting played. each time they tried it backfires on them. let's call it for what it is, this is another attempt to go after the president of the united states. lou: another sickening e

you see, our dear friend, congressman clyburn, he should be credited for getting joe biden the nomination. why he failed in all the other states, south carolina was critical -- while he failed in all the other states, south carolina was critical. he did poll v.i.x. very well in the endorse -- politics very well in the endorsement. he turned the tide in the democratic nom -- nomination. you'll have a nominee and a lot of that goes to jim clyburn and he deserves the credit for what he was able to politically accomplish. we don't question his political abilities, he's the majority whip, he knows how to gather votes, he knows how to make the political argument. but, madam speaker, this is the that ndividual who said the pandemic presented the perfect opportunity to restructure things to fit our own vision. ms. pelosi: today is a historic day for us to once again to pass our fourth bipartisan legislation to address the very irus crisis, i'm eased with the vote, 388-5 passing under suspension and a recorded vote. we have masterful leadership of richie neal managing the bill on the floor and he

clyburn

you'll have a nominee and a lot of that goes to jim clyburn and he deserves the credit for what he was able to politically accomplish. we don't question his political abilities, he's the majority whip, he knows how to gather votes, he knows how to make the political argument. but, madam speaker, this is the that ndividual who said the pandemic presented the perfect opportunity to restructure things to fit our own vision. i do not question his appointment. i wonder why this committee. if that was his view, why wasn't he put on the congressional oversight that was equal with the number of republicans and the number of democrats? the public does not want to see politics. why would we waste our time bringing people back to create a political committee? i guess the vote will tell us differently. it's interesting to know why we are here. at 8:30 today we actually found the reason. $4 -- 4.4 million more reasons why we're here. how many of those 4.4 million would not have gotten a pink slip last week had we listened more than two weeks ago on april 7 when we said the program we created, that

i'll speak to house democratic whip jim clyburn, next. >>> hello, i'm jake tapper in washington, where the state of our union is bracing ourselves. today marks the beginning of what president trump says may be the toughest two weeks of the coronavirus pandemic in the united states. announcing at a press conference saturday that there will be, quote, a lot of death. it is hard to fathom since the numbers are already so overwhelming and so bleak. over a million cases worldwide. and the virus has killed more than 8,500 in the united states alone. last sunday, the u.s. death toll was around 2,000. the week before, just over 300. as the crisis worsens, the president is also taking advantage of a distracted nation, choosing this moment to fire the inspector general of the intelligence committee who notified congress about the whistle-blower complaint that led to the president's impeachment. saturday, the president announced that the military is, quote, going to war to help the states, sending a thousand u.s. air force and u.s. navy medical providers to new york over the next three days. join

at the same time, i am announcing the formation of a bipartisan committee to be shared by jim clyburn called the select committee on the coronavirus crisis. the committee chairs and leadership and republican leadership, this is a house select committee. the greatness of our nation is in its ability to rise to extraordinary challenges no matter how big. now it is a time, we face a deadly virus and a battered economy with millions out of work. congress has taken an important step in meeting this crisis by passing three bills. there was $2 trillion in emergency relief. we need to make sure those dollars are spent carefully. our country face a similar challenge during world war ii. billions were going to be spent quickly to defeat a global menace. harry truman recognized the emergency of oversight and accountability in making sure the money did what it was supposed to do. the senate agreed and put senator truman in charge of the committee to investigate the national defense program. that is what it was called. years later, president truman looked back at that time and summarized his view.

on statean clyburn was of the union yesterday and he talked about the role that his select committee what have. here is what he had to say. >> my understanding is that this committee will be forward-looking. we will not be looking back on what the president may or may not have done that before this crisis hit. the crisis is with us. the american people are out of work, millions of them out of work. whether or not the money is appropriated will go to support them and their families or if it will end up in the pockets of a few profiteers. that is what we are to do. i spent the weekend looking deeply into the committee and what has happened since march 1, 1941. it proved to be very successful. i am trying to base my work on this committee on the history with the work of that committee. host: what does it take to get a committee like that up and running? what has been the reaction since nancy pelosi unveiled this plan? guest: the reaction from the leadership, one of the reasons nancy pelosi wanted james clyburn is that he is one of the people who commands a lot of mutual respect. republi

change and to try to -- go to jim clyburn, the majority whip. what did he say? an coronavirus is opportunity to restructure government to their vision. let's apply that to what we are asking for right now. we already have policy that is working and it needs more money. americaof saying yes, needs it, let's just supply them more money. no, let's take the opportunity with coronavirus to change other policy as well. everybody is saying it's about to peak in the next two weeks. our small businesses and those employed by them -- do they have to wait because we are playing politics? could we just give them more money? aboutave two questions the oversight commission. when do you plan to make your selections for the panel and have you spoken with speaker pelosi about the jointly care?ted >> there are three oversight committees. one is by inspector general's or inspectors general. one is an appointment by the president. and then we have a congressional oversight commission appointed by each leader and the people who decide the chairs arpa losey and mcconnell. are pelosi

clyburn, on this very important effort. as the speaker has explained, this new subcommittee is modeled directly after the truman committee. and saved billions of taxpayer dollars during world war ii. and helped mobilize our nation, our industries, and our entire population for war. harry truman explained at the time that it was critical during this effort to conduct oversight, to prevent the waste of taxpayers' funds rather than waiting until after they were spent. catching problems early and correcting them immediately saved not only money but lives. today our nation, our economy, and our people face a similar mobilization effort as we engage in this war against the coronavirus. microbes are killing more people than missiles. and let me be clear, right now we are only in the first battle. this week the director of the centers for disease control and prevention warned that we could face a second, more deadly wave of coronavirus this fall. he warned that it could, and i quote, actually be even more difficult than the one we

congressman clyburn told the newspaper in london you would make a solid number two. you're a first-term mayor of a major metropolitan area. do you think you're qualified to be vice president? >> craig, after navigating a pandemic in the biggest municipal cyber attack in the history of our country, i think i'm qualified to handle just about anything other than home schooling my four kids. so when congressman clyburn mentions your name, certainly it's an honor to be spoken. i've said all along, i want joe biden to win in november. i trust he will make the best choice that will allow him the best opportunity to take over the white house in november because elections matter. we see it now. we see where we are as a country, attempting to navigate this pandemic. i think we could have done a much better job even if we simply had the pandemic team in place that was left by the obama/biden administration. i think people need to take this election very seriously, and we see what consequences of elections are when we don't have solid leadership in place. we sea mayors across th

majority whip clyburn, thank you so much for joining us. president trump on friday fired the intelligence community inspector general michael atkinson, who of course was the one who informed congress of the whistle-blower complaint that ultimately led to the president's impeachment. the president said it was his decision, and he did not run it by congress because he has, quote, the absolute right to do what he did. what's your response? >> my response is simply this. i think that that is one of the reasons speaker pelosi decided that this committee was necessary. we in the united states congress have oversight. we must perform that oversight, and we will do that to make sure that we save lives, that we save taxpayer money, and she was very smart, i think, to pattern this committee after the truman committee back in 1941. it's kind of interesting. harry truman said at the time, he was genius senator from missouri at the time. he looked back in the wasn't what happen affidavit world war i and saw that 116 different committees were stood up to

announcingosi: i'm the formation of a bipartisan committee to be chaired by jim clyburn. it is called the house select committee on the coronavirus crisis. we will be in touch with the committee chairs and leadership and the republican leadership. this is a house select committee. the greatness of our nation is in its ability to rise to its ordinary challenges the matter how big. now is the time. a face a deadly virus in battered economy with millions of americans suddenly out of work. congress has taken an important step by passing three bills with over $2 trillion in emergency relief. >> we will take you live now to baton rouge where louisiana governor john bel edwards holds a briefing on the state's response to the coronavirus operate. -- outbreak. 95% of thes: positive results that we announced today are from t ests conducted in commercial labs. the increase of cases appears to be less a sign of exponential growth over the last couple of days and more a sign of a logjam for commercial labs that have developed over a long period of time. many of these tests were taken

clyburn, on this very important effort. as the speaker has explained, this new subcommittee is modeled directly after the truman committee. and saved billions of taxpayer dollars during world war ii. and helped mobilize our nation, our industries, and our entire population for war. harry truman explained at the time that it was critical during this effort to conduct oversight, to prevent the waste of taxpayers' funds rather than waiting until after they were spent. catching problems early and correcting them immediately saved not only money but lives. today our nation, our economy, and our people face a similar mobilization effort as we engage in this war against the coronavirus. microbes are killing more people than missiles. and let me be clear, right now we are only in the first battle. this week the director of the centers for disease control and prevention warned that we could face a second, more deadly wave of coronavirus this fall. he warned that it could, and i quote, actually be even more difficult than the one we

it does concern me that she would select clyburn after the comments he made during the coronavirus, that he felt it gave him an opportunity to restructure government into their philosophy. know whatever select committee speaker like to announce, you have to vote on it by congress. state intent and responsibilities like we have always done before. i'm not sure when this would ever be up and running. our focus should be implementing the trillions of dollars we have already passed. sure with these entities that we would want oversight. it's above what we already have our committee. -- with our committee. everything before seems to be bipartisan, this is not, so i don't know if they are going in a different direction. i watched what adam schiff has said. that's the only thing that would concern me. next question? next question comes from leeann caldwell from nbc news. >> can you guys hear me? speaker mccarthy: yes. >> thanks for having the call. a couple questions. the president seems open to a phase four, talk about infrastructure and hazard pay. out?oes that play with the $6 million unempl

clyburn said he would like to see a woman of color. and so did john lewis. are seeing a pretty strong push for that, i think the smart money is on a woman of color, but i don't always trust where the smart money is going to be placed. >> before people send me angry tweets, i have nothing against michelle obama, i love michelle obama. these are just questions, don't send me angry tweets. mark, from politico, thanks for talking to us. >>> businesses are reopening in texas. we will have more on the retail to go executive order which is intended to help businesses and keep customers safe. >>> coronavirus is not just an urban problem, there's new reporting about the growing caseload in rural areas and how they could have a tough time fighting back. sure. sometimes i wish i had legs like you. yeah, like a regular person. no. still half bike/half man, just the opposite. oh, so the legs on the bottom and motorcycle on the top? yeah. yeah, i could see that. for those who were born to ride, there's progressive. yeah, i could see that. if we weren't able to stream anyt

shealy thing -- the only thing she announced was jim clyburn would be in charge. thatlyburn has only said the coronavirus is a chance to restructure government. that's not oversight, at a restructuring of government. it seems like he's concerned about something else than oversight. then she puts on maxine waters. she also puts on laskin, who in the last week, bento toto with jim jordan in a screaming match. if you want to take a reputation of different members you put on this committee on what they care most about, i don't judge them on them fighting for things they believe in, but it seems they are very political individuals. i have not seen them ask about oversight, i've only seen them ask about impeachment. laskin has built a reputation on even before the president was one in, that's what he took to the valley to say he wanted to accomplish. before the president was sworn in. the real intent of the committee? if your question to me, if i care about oversight, i do and i will go above and beyond. that's why we participate in every committee. if it is a political

he mentioned james clyburn and how politics could creep in.erybody, including yourself when you were chairman of the oversight committee, everybody's got to be able to handle some politics, right? and do their jobs. are you doubtful of that in this instance as a look at what the trump administration is doing? >> jason: well, what you didn't see -- at least when i was the chairman, and we had an election going -- we didn't create another committee to start to go look at this, the moment this crisis has actually started. after 9/11, for instance, it took almost a year. i think it was more than a year before they started the 9/11 commission. there should be vigorous oversight. my point is that infrastructure and those personnel, they are already in place. >> harris: wow, that's a really interesting point, the timing of it all. jason chaffetz, always great to have you on the program. thank you, good to see. >> jason: thanks, harris. >> harris: new polling shows president trump's approval rating is going down, but his reelection odds remain steady.

without congressman clyburn, we're not having this discussion tonight.he question to you is what gets delivered? what vote was transferred today to joe biden? >> it's an interesting question, brian, because i think part of the story of this democratic primary here in 2020 is our understanding of who and what makes up the bernie sanders coalition. i think it's changed. i think it's changed somewhat dramatically just over the course of the last few weeks. so to answer that question, one word here, activists. bernie sanders did very well with activists. you could see it in caucus states. what was bernie sanders' best state this entire campaign? obviously it was the nevada caucuses. remember, he won that runaway victory. we were talking about that night all the questions about was he going to run away with the nomination? well, what you saw in nevada was it was a caucus state. you had extremely low turnout compared to some of these primary states and in an atmosphere like that, bernie sanders could excel. we saw him do well with young voters, with self-descr

host: james clyburn on cnn yesterday.does it take for committee like that to get up and running, and what is been the reaction since nancy pelosi unveiled the program last week? from thee reaction leadership -- one of the reasons nancy pelosi one jim clyburn to lead the committee is he is one of the people who commands a lot of mutual respect. have beenpublicans skeptical about the need for a select committee to look into pandemics and stimulus spending. as jim clyburn was saying on cnn, he also spoke on a special report podcast on friday. he said this is about making sure that people spend this money wisely. not just taxpayer money expenses. this could be the differs between life and death for people. we model this or the truman committee over world war ii. kevin mccarthy and other republicans have said, they don't think this is necessary and it seems redundant. there is oversight authorities that are baked into the last stimulus package in phase three. that is, including -- that is including a special inspector general

clyburn. the speaker pro tempore: the democratic whip is recognized for two minutes. mr. clyburn: thank you very much, madam speaker. i thank the gentleman for yielding me the time. madam speaker, i rise today in support of this emergency spending package. i believe this legislation moves ofa step closer to my vision making america's greatness accessible and affordable for all. the covid-19 pandemic has laid bare the inequities in our health care system. that are having dramatic negative impacts on health outcomes in minority communities. martin luther king jr. observed back in 1966, of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health is the most shocking and the most inhuman, because it often results in physical death. how prevalent. to know the full extent of how this virus is ravaging communities of color, we must test, test, test. that is why i am pleased there is $25 billion in this package for testing, which allows for my advocacy of mobile testing. we must make testing accessible and affordable for rural and persistent poverty communities facing obstacles due to a

he offered up the room originally. >> clyburn has it now. it's a bipartisan bill. that's a very good question. edna, you start this round. >> i don't think they have any business being there. i understand that each state has the right to have two statues there. i feel the same, it's odd that a country would erect statues to men who fought against the country. i just don't get that. >> i agree. >> it's up to congress. >> right. if i had a vote, i would vote to ban -- >> and florida has voted to replace kirby smith with mary mcleod bethune, civil rights leader. >> great. >> my name is david ranky. i'm from ohio. there's a house there where roswell ripley was born. there was a marker on a pole that gave a bio of him. it's my understanding the city got a call and a complaint and they took the marker down. what i want to do is give your thoughts and ideas about what you thought of -- think of this removal. it's a marker from the front of the birthplace. >> i'm afraid i don't know about it. what was in the discussion that was deemed worthy of removal? >> you might tell p

clyburn. yes, ma'am. >> the senate majority commented about bankruptcy. other republicans have been making arguments and have little appetite for increased spending, how do you plan to violence to t going to answer for fiscal irresponsibility of the past? ms. pelosi: this is all coronavirus. thank you for your question. everything we have done in these four bills and what we will do are all connected. it's about addressing the outlays and what they have made on the coronavirus as well as the revenue lost because they haven't cash flow. same thing with the hospitals. they dope have paying patients who offset the terrible work that they do. in the hospitals as with the state and local directly related to coronavirus outlays and coronavirus revenue loss, but it is indicative of the fact that they don't believe in governance because they don't see the connection between the public health personnel, police and fire that are essential to meeting the needs of the american people. the fact is, it's about jobs as it is small business, it's about jobs, job, job, jo

jim clyburn is a smart, political person. he is credited with getting joe biden the nomination when joe biden -- he is also the individual who told everybody -- he elected the third-highest person as majority whip, they lost a majority, he kept the job. you have to be politically smart to keep a job a majority whip and losing the majority. he went on to come backstage as the whip, who had joe biden the nominee, he told all his members that the coronavirus is an opportunity to restructure government into their liberal view. politically, he is smart, he was to use things politically, she is trying to tell me this is a policy one. i read it and told her clearly that i view this as another impeachment committee, it is the only one that is looking at from a standpoint of that we created from cares, is what is not created after cares, that is weighted. there are more democrats than republicans. there's nobody from the administration and there are no senators. it is a political appointed group. then she says, let me see who you are

clyburn. that is what this is about and is the ranking member and this is just one more attempt by the democrats to go after the president, one more chance for them to attack the president in an election year and the biggest supporter of the democrat nominee as the chairman of this direct committee where we already have a different oversight russ is in place doing the work of the american taxpayer. remember their first big hearing was michael cohen and that we have the whole trump fresh investigation and we have them all investigation and then the impeachment of here we go in an election year in the summer could we know what these hearings will look like this fall could help the big hearings seem to take place in this room. they will be calling in all kinds of people for defense so i strongly oppose ranking member i strongly oppose this legislation and i hope it doesn't go to the for tomorrow to help it doesn't pass. if thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak today and i yield back. >

the clyburn oversight, i don't know why that was brought up, you cannot create that until the house comes back. i am not sure what duplication that would be and the idea of what the speaker talked about saying, worrying about people doing something about raising prices of masks and others in this time -- my discussion with her i thought, in the time being , why don't we allow that attorney general to deal with it? they have stepped up to make sure people are not doing price gouging in a time of need like this but i am not sure why you would have another oversight committee. you have these three we all voted on in a bipartisan basis with funding and then we gave more money to the gao. there is a lot of check and balances here and i want to make sure we have accountability to move forward. i will be making an announcement we will putointment to the congressional oversight as well and they will report back to congress every 30 days. thank you, paul. >> our next question comes from melanie, the line is open. thank you so much for doing this call. can you talk more about this congressional tas

clyburn. thank you all very much. reporter: we go live now to a briefing with federal reserve chair jerome powell. we join this event already in progress. section 13.3 of the federal reserve act, it requires we be secured to our lendfaction, and we cannot insolvent companies -- it is clear these are lending bound to implement the laws that congress gives us. we can't make grants. that in my raised remarks is that i just want to be clear on that. ou know, we can do what we can do and we will do it to the absolute limit of those powers. it.l keep at and you -- i just want people to know that we will be at it with that we authorities have until we get through this thing. we will keep using our authorities. ut there are authorities that we don't have and there may be a need for those authorities to be used as well as ours. powell.hair it's heather long from "the washington post." i have two questions for you. timing. do you plan to launch the corporate facility and main lending facilities in may, early may, anything you c

house majority whip james clyburn said it all in a phone call with his democrat colleagues.te, this is a tremendous opportunity to restructure things to fit our vision. that was a reported quote. covid is being used as a cover to fund liberal progressive programs. it gave nancy time to show her freezer ice cream, and she goes from the late late show with james corden to the late show with stephen colbert to bill maher who puts the ultimate question to her last night. >> i know we can bail out certain sectors as we have done in the past. i don't know how you can just keep indefinitely writing checks. we were $20 trillion in the hole to begin with. how can the whole world be writing this funny money? >> because it's a matter of life and death. judge jeanine: funding the kennedy center is a matter of life and death for you, nancy. the left is not in tune with america. last year when 800,000 americans were not receiving pay during the shutdown, pelosi and schiff were off to afghanistan and brussels after nancy prevented the president from delivering his state of the union, sugge

jim clyburn said in a phone call quote, this is a tremendous opportunity to restructure things to fit our vision. that was a reported quote. so you see, covid is being used as a cover to fund liberal progressive programs. yet nancy has time to show her freezer ice cream and the tone deaf brain freeze as she goes from the late late show james corbyn to bill maher who puts the ultimate question to you last night. >> i know we can bail out certain sectors like we have done in the past. i don't know how you can just indefinitely keep writing checks. we were $0 trillion in the hole already. how can the whole world be writing this funny manny. >> because it's a matter of life and death. judge jeanine: funding the kennedy center is a matter of life and death, nancy? during the partial shutdown when 800,000 americans were not receiving pay:pelosi, schiff and her junket travelers were off to afghanistan and brussels after nancy prevented the president from delivering his state of the union. after this year's state of the union, we know what she does with the state of the union speeches. congre
