for these $400.00 will be interesting to see given how close they are in numbers or from the senate danielle obviously before we go i really want take this time to talk about game stop now anthony scaramucci said the game stop short shows that a concept like bitcoin can actually work because it really shows how effective these decentralized and democratic democrats sizes investment how it can be he called it the age of the micro investor with forms like credit are we seeing a new phase of the markets is this kind of where we're headed where heavily short stocks might be targeted in the future. well i'm not show so far how far into the future we can actually have a rational discussion given that this is clearly unadulterated speculative behavior that is going on these are massively credit trades and they're targeting big short sellers many of whom have decided to logically rationally cut out of these trades cut their losses and move aside rather than get caught up in this mob flash mob if you will so with all due deference to mr scaramucci i don't see that this is going to be a new pathway fo

as the late senator daniel patrick moynihan pointed out, this is been true for decades and it has never been remedied. in fact it has gotten worse. over the past four years, a washington took even more funding from new yorkers as a sheer exercise of political extortion. today, new york subsidizes 42 other states. on top of that, of the new federal provision has cost new york $30 billion more over three years. it increases property taxes on hard-working new yorkers $2600 per year. look at the gross injustice. washington raised our taxes to benefit other states and those states then appealed to our residents to relocate to their lower tax states. the infuriating ironing is the -- irony is that new york subsidizes those states -- states' lower rates. but washington did not stop there. the abuse was unrelenting. our medicaid reimbursement rate was the lowest in the united states. they starved our infrastructure funding and illegally impeded our global travel. so you ask me today what is our state of the state, new york is suffering and new yorkers are tired of being abused and demand that w

have you adjusted your view off of a democratic president, house and senate? danielit is a bit of a plus and minus. everyone is reacting to stimulus and that is what we are seeing reflected in treasury yields. it will be a question of how much president-elect joe biden is able to obtain relative to his proposal but nonetheless, it should be more than what we thought would have been the case one month ago. the markets are enthused about that. we have reduced our allocation for equities from an overweight to neutral perhaps waiting for a better entry point. there is always going to be something upsetting that happens. at some point, we will have a pullback and that will be the better tanning -- the better time to go back to an overweight position. tom: i don't know how you spell that in french but we will go with it. when are you going to get a pullback? people are misogynist, fourth of july is a holiday in america, they are going off to july in the summer. do you know when the pullback is going to occur? daniel: the most likely trigger that we are cognizant of is goin

full disclosure, i worked for democratic senator daniel patrick moynihan while ron klain was working for senator biden. there was a lot of teamwork between the senator from new york and the senator from delaware, especially when it came to the supreme court nomination of ruth bader ginsburg. justice moynihan literally brought her from door to door to visit senators before her confirmation hearings, which was chaired by joe biden. by that time, ron klain was working in the white house counsel's office in charge of supreme court nominations. ruth bader ginsburg handled her confirmation hearings perfectly and i know was grateful to have ron klain by her side every step of the way. so, yes, i am about to interview a friend. i feel the way tim russert felt when he was hosting "meet the press" so brilliantly for 16 years when he had to introduce senator moynihan or new york's governor mario cuomo, because before my time in the senate, tim russert served as senator moynihan's chief of staff. and tim russert served on the staff of governor cuomo. and tim was always able to conduct a fair inte

here on c-span is where you can watch the floor proceedings and on cspan2 you can watch the senate. danielle i will try to get to and in georgia. >> yes, ma'am, good evening i'm from georgia and i want to bring to life there's a lot of people who are not holding their leaders responsible for perpetuating this whole entire voter fraud scheme and one person i want to call out specifically is the queen, the 14 congressional district freshmen marginally enter marjorie taylor greene who refused to wear a mask while she's being sworn in and then called nancy pelosi house of hypocrites and i find that hypocritical of her. i have even spoke with her staff and her in office today trying to get her to stop with her twitter account today and this morning when she was a fight for trump this is an election steel, she is just as guilty as donald trump, she herself was promoting the fight for trump all morning long, nobody is bringing up the gop senators who were bringing up all the stuff, nobody is speaking out against her and i want to be the first person in georgia to say we need to do something to have

senate committee and daniel sloss hey it's great to have you with us today thank you so much for having me right so dale my impression is that humor is like a perfect marriage of the reality really that we live in and let's say if we take american standup comedy for instance there were sex set on stage could one slender in jail and if you're swearing it could cost you having fines etc then it became totally fine to talk about all those things in a most frivolous of manners. and society was gradually loosening up the humor was becoming more jiggy as well and what are we seeing now would you would you say that we're seeing a reverse trend right now i really don't subscribe to not a tape of that. comedy is being censored i think people are just being yelled at because of the internet they're just being yelled out more of with more volume of jokes aren't necessarily more and a face of them people are necessarily more offended but it's just know we live in a world where the joke that we would just stop saying let's face it in a comedy club with a 100 people in it you do a joke that would nor

i want you to -- do you think the senate should have a trial? daniel the senate should have a trial for starters, the president doesn't have a legal team yet. the impeachment on the house side as kim just described was somewhat half-baked. judgment kasey described other impeachable offenses, they didn't bother to spend any time with that and i don't think it's in the senate's interest and i will take up with the house was unable to do and then fill out -- fill in the blanks as they are trying to start a new government and a new administration. i think, you know, the president has been vilified for what he did. he has been punished, people can make up their own minds and at this point, i think what the country wants to do is get past this and move on to the rest of the nation's business. paul: all right, when we come back the republican party after trump as the president prepares to leave office and age-related macular degeneration may lead to severe vision loss. so the national eye institute did 20 years of clinical studies on a formula only found in p

senate. there is now a petition signed by 5,000 professors and students at harvard danielle trying to disbar senators cruz and the other senator because they went on the floor of the senate. it's getting worse. if a student today takes the position that i take or the congresswoman takes, their grades will suffer. their recommendations will suffer. we are seeing a kind of mccarthyism permeate a reverse mccarthyism, the exact opposite of what i experience when i was in college in the 1950s, and what the democrats are doing is they are playing theater. they know they can't get a removal of a president. the constitution only empowers congress to impeach and remove a president from office once he's out of office. congress loses jurisdiction. they can't have a trial. first of all, the constitution says the chief justice must -- trial of the president. >> sean: wasn't there a case of a secretary of state may be in the grant administration that was impeached post their term. didn't that happen? >> yes and it was wrong. it was wrong then and it's wrong now. people made a mistake in the past. the const

so, daniel, the senate makes up the jury for this trial, and that includes several senators who pushedmp's big lie about the election. a former nixon white house counsel john dean said senators like hawley and cruz, he says that they're coconspirators and should be disqualified as jurors. is he right? >> in a court of law, he's absolutely right. and we ran into this with ukraine, ron johnson, senator from wisconsin was present for a number of important meetings including with president zelensky, including with president trump. it's inherently conflicting to have the senators who all were victims of the insurrection be the jury for this, but that is the nature of this political process. we're not in a court of law. we're in the senate. the rules of evidence don't apply. this is a sort of different kind of animal that we have to deal with. so none of these senators will be recusing themselves. they will all be voting. they all bring their own political beliefs and prejudgments. it is not that blank slate of 12 jurors of your peers that you would get at a criminal trial, but again, we're

daniel goldman. welcome. we're about to see the senators sworn in. pete williams told us they're not jurors technically because they can participate. where do you see this trial going with this two-week delay before we start hearing evidence and arguments. does this help or hurt the case against donald trump? >> tell me how many more drips come out between now and then and i can more comfortably answer your question, katy. that has a lot to do with it. either more evidence. the scheme that we learned about over the weekend at the justice department. i mean, that has to weigh heavier on the rob portmans of the world. the folks that we identified that might be in the swingish vote area when it comes to conviction. that has to bother them. the more that we're learning on sort of how, how sophisticated some of the attackers were on the raid in the capitol. the more that we're learning about that. you know, i think a lot of us are wondering. what more is going to leak out of what happened in those final couple of weeks of the trump, of the trump term. so,

>> people used to line up to get into the senate chamber to hear daniel webster speak.loquent manner about him. even if it was not the greatest speech he had ever heard -- they had ever heard, he could speak for days. but they were able to get to what the issue was. we remember him today for not the length of the speeches, but a certain telling phrase that i speak as an american. henry clay used to sit up in the back of the senate chamber, and people would say, does he have more seniority, why doesn't he move toward the front? he never wanted to turn his back on any of his enemies or friends, for that matter. he became synonymous with compromise. representing the west, he was trying to reconcile the interest of the north and the south. he was able to kind of keep control over the senate. people charged him with being the dictator. he said, i'm not the dictator. i'm just one of a number of senators. he knew as well that he was a dictator. whenever jhansi calhoun came into the chamber, there was a buzz at the gallery, because he was a dramatic looking man. a serious looki

senate. that has failed. let's bring into the conversation with us daniel goldman. let me get your reaction to the point of order that was introduced by rand paul failing. what do you make of it? >> well, the most interesting thing is that it was 55-45, which gives an indication of where the senators are on the vote to convict. if 45 senators are favoring dismissing the trial because it is unconstitutional, then it is hard to see a path to 67 votes for conviction. so that is quite news worthy. it is the first test to see where people are as it relates to this trial. as a point of historical perspective, when the secretary of war in 1876 was tried after he was removed from office, after he was out of office, he was not convicted. a number of the senators voted to acquit him because they did not think that it was appropriate to have that trial. the trial went forward and it is now precedent. but it is particularly note worthy that we have 45 senators who would have voted to dismiss the trial on constitutional issues. i don't think it is correct as he was explaining bu

senator tim kaine say now. >> "firing line" with margaret hoover is made possible in part by the margaret and daniel loeb foundation, robert graneari, charles r. schwab, the david tepper foundation inc., the fair weather foundation, and by -- corporate funding is provided by stevens inc.. >> senator tim kaine, welcome to "firing line." >> thank you, margaret. >> 47 republicans voted earlier this week to decide whether the firing of a former president is actually institutional. only 47 democratsoined democrats to dismiss this effort. this is well short of the 17 republicans that would be needed to vote to convict the former president. senator, what is your sense of the senate about the possibility of impeachment? >> margaret, i think the behavior is impeachable and certainly warrants conviction, but i think the chances are virtual zero. as you pointed out, this vote was basically on the question of whether you could try a former official in an impeachment trial. there are legal arguments both ways on that. i think the better argument is certainly that you can do such a trial. but 45 republicans have said they don't

president and a democratic sweep of the two georgia senate seats, markets still hitting all-time records this week. here with me now anthony khan and danielan martino booth. demartino. the stock market is looking at all of the stimulus money coming in. are we just too stagnant on wall street? >> charles, there's a lot of stuff going on, as you can see, but i just finished some exciting research that that actually finds when we leave a recession, and i think we clearly left a recession in 2020, we will see a big bounceback the year after. in fact, what my research finds is when the s&p 500 goes up less than 23% in the year we're leaving a recession, the next year you get a double-digit rate of return in the s&p 500. and last year we got a return that was below that. so i expect at least a 15% rate of return. we do have a lot of turbulence out there politically, but outside of that the fundamentals suggest that as the economy leaves the recession and we improve and the vaccine, of course, in the driver's seat here and we get that onboard, we should have a double-digit rate of return in 2023 from the equity markets. charles: you know, dan ye

senate and delivering that article at 7:00 tonight. we'll all be watching. thank you very much. >> thanks for having me. >>> and daniel goldman served as lead counsel during the first house impeachment inquiry into donald trump. just trying to get my head around the fact this president has been impeached twice, and also working with the house intelligence committee in that matter. daniel, it's great to see you. >> good to see you. >> let's talk about the legal aspects, constitutionality. it's only been tested. in rare cases there have been post office holding impeachments. we know what happened with the secretary of war, i guess it was, under president andrew johnson. but this is different. it's the president of the use. is there any legal issue that you see that would be an impediment where it would be an immediate appeal going up to the supreme court, delaying the crime or outcome of a trial? >> that's a novel idea that i try to appeal this through the courts, straight to the supreme court, whether there can even be a trial or narrowly in a criminal case, you would play it all out and then it would be appealed and t

danielle: i have known tony an awfully long time. i worked at the senate foreign relations committee when joe biden was chairman and when he was ranking member, the democratic head of the committee. without making comparisons with mike pompeo, i think they probably have a different style, one that may be more deferential to the bureaucracy and that will be welcome. a big part of the challenge that everybody in the trump administration faces, including a lot of people who were serving their country honorably, was that they never knew what the president was going to say next. was it going to be a tweet? was it going to be some outburst? they had to manage policy around that. that is not the case anymore. that sort of capricious, what my latest mood brings me kind of leadership is not going to be the biden signature, and i think that is going to make tony's life more pleasant, easier, and going to make the united states a more predictable power. sometimes protectable in a bad way, but also in a good way. you want countries in the world to know where the unite

one problem though, senate republicans would have to get on board with this in a big way. cnn's danielrates fact from fiction. >> reporter: there is a whole lot of bad information going around about what a second impeachment would mean for president donald trump's post presidency life. i fact checked one tweet that had more than 181,000 retweets even though the man who tweeted it told me he's just some guy in texas who had no idea if his information is correct. he made four claims in that tweet, unfortunately each and everyone of them was in some way. one of the claims he made in the tweet was a second impeachment would mean trump would be disqualified from running for president in 2024. that is not at all true. a house impeachment would not disqualify him. even a senate vote to convict and remove him that would require 2/3 of the senate would not disqualify him. the senate would have to hold an additional vote, specifically on disqualification. that would require a simple majority of senators present but, again, it would have to follow the 2/3 vote to convict and remove him. the viral

senator joe manchin say now? >> announcer: "firing line" with margaret hoover is made possible in part by the margaret and daniel loeb foundation, robert grenear, charles r. schwab, the david kerp charitable foundation inc., the fair weather foundation, and by corporate funding is provided by svens inc. >>> on tuesday, a day before president trump's second impeachment, i had a conversation with democratic senator joe manchin. a moderate who urged democrats to slow down their impeachment efforts in order to build bipartisan support. first, that conversation. and later in this episode, senator manchin returns for an important update on how he sees the situation now, after ten republicans joined every democrat in the house of representatives by voting to impeach. senator joe manchin, welcome to firing line. >> good to be with you, margaret. thank you for having me. you've said that while there is no doubt that president trump should be impeached, it doesn't make any common sense to pursue this coursef action since a trial wouldn't start until after president trump leaves office. and you've even called impeachment i

senate. i'm going to try to get you in, daniel, and georgia. -- in georgia. to say i just wanted there are a lot of people who are not holding their leaders responsible for perpetuating this whole entire voter fraud scheme. one person i want to call out theifically is the queen of 14th congressional district freshman, marjorie taylor greene, who refused to wear a mask while being sworn in, then called nancy pelosi and the hypocrites. i find it hypocritical of her. i even spoke with her staff and her office today, trying to get her to stop with her twitter account today and this morning, where she was saying steel.s an election she is just as guilty as donald trump era she was herself promoting the fight for trump come all morning long. nobody is bringing up the gop senators. nobody is speaking out against her. i want to be the first person in georgia to say that we need to do something to have all of these leaders recalled, because he perpetuated the violence that happened on the capital today. and one thing that i grab its me about some of these callers is t

election and the change and control of the presidency and the senate very likely will lead to an increase in violence. we heard officer daniel hodges of d.c. metro police tell us about the true believers who were attacking him at the capitol, believers in what? believers that the election was stolen. and we know that president trump this week is still telling people that he won the election. so what impact do you think that has on the threat of violence? >> so that is definitely one of the narratives in the online chatter. it is by no means the only one. but it is one of them. and i think the key is in the, in the disaster that happened at the capitol on january 6th that was related to that theme, the high-profile arrests being made by the fbi, not only to bring people who committed violence to justice, something that we have always said at department of homeland security, no matter who it is, they should be brought to justice, but also to demonstrate to america and to anybody who may want to try to copy that behavior, that justice will be done. that we are going to be aggressive. the whole federal team will be aggressive. n

of offices used by the senate republican leader, they walk into an inner sanctum of the building not seen by tourists. into the rooms were thomas jefferson, henry clay, and danielster walked. into the very beginning of the capitol history. >> aiden hundred to -- 1800 to 1802 they met in these rooms. after 1802 it was the library of congress. from 1806 to 1808 they came back in. from 1800 to 1810 this was the heart and soul of government. i should mention front of that window where the speaker's chair was in 1801 it was thomas jefferson and aaron burr standing on either side of the window. the speaker was in the middle and this decision of who would become president was made. 36 consecutive vote because this was the house of representatives. one was going to be president and the other vice president. 36 votes later thomas jefferson became president right in front of that window. pretty remarkable. >> with his election in the house. host: again, the documentary airing today at 1:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. eastern. question, what would the founders think of our public? couple of comments on twitter. richard says, "they would think it was time for another revolution. th

daniel: this is something that has to be dealt with. ordinarily the security measures at the capitol are above the requirement to keep our congressmen and senators safe. we want resources to secure that ruth -- to restore that secured a program. the best thing about our capitol is we can go visit it and listen to our congressional operatives do what they need to do. that is what we value most. we also value peaceful protests. but we don't value is when protests turn violent, try to shut down the constitutionally obligated duties of our elected america havecause voted for them to do it. caroline: we thank you so much. congressional leaders are being evacuated from the capitol complex, according to cnn. what a day. one that is painful to watch, i'm sure. romaine: painful to watch. thank a lot of folks in d.c. who were in harm's way bringing us coverage. joe: we expected theatrics today, i think would be the consensus, nothing like the images we have seen today. caroline: stay tuned for our special coverage at the end of this with david westin. this (announcer) do you want to reduce stress? shed pounds? do you want to flatten your stomach? do all t

senators given that there are at least a handful of pro trumps senators that seems unlikely so then that would have to either january 19th or daniel the 20th and january 20th right ring a bell that's the day 'd that joe biden becomes president so why would they continue with that well there is precedent that they could go ahead and impeach even once he's out of office why would they do that well politically democrats are going to want these republicans on the record for when they run for reelection and also if he isn't peached and that's a much higher hurdle in the senate 2 thirds would have to vote to impeach him they could also vote for a simple majority and say he's banned from ever holding public office again that seems more likely considering that there are a lot of republicans who want to run in 4 years and they don't want the threat of donald trump hanging over them as running for reelection again so you can see how it plays out over the next couple of days but it is definitely gaining momentum here on the hill also gaining momentum is the band's against the president on social media are we getting any reaction from the whi

just won the senate for the 1st stockman almost a decade there are too cool control of the federal government why you why would they start compromising now latin american studies professor daniel schott told us how the political divides even splitting families including his own. this is certainly a unique moment we can see many families across the country very divided over this i have family members who you know won't talk to me who have threatened me. who see me as a traitor because i have different political views so this call for. family members to call in other other family members is certainly an unprecedented unique situation i think we're living through. another chapter of divisiveness in american history the polarized nation is intense think this decades and centuries of polarization but it's unique right now because big twitter facebook their bedding of truck certainly this should be no platforms for bigotry or xeno phobia everything that trump represents but if today trump has been who will be binge tomorrow. still had on the program israelis ignore lockdown rules to demonstrate against prime minister netanyahu and the man to resign i'll be back with details on that
