you just mentioned sarah palin, and many have drawn a through line from palin to trump.us, he is, and looms large over 2024 and beyond, but there are some democrats who see two republicans in particular as the heir apparents, kari lake, the former tv newscaster, obama supporter, less threatening than trump. the other is ron desantis who has been able to use the power of government in an effective way to push through his political agenda, perhaps nor effectively than trump. give us your assessment of lake and desantis and writ large is that the where the republican party is going. >> no question that's where it's going. lake and desantis have perfected the punch back on anything establishment we are all the enemy of the people. robert also has a piece in the "new york times" about marjorie taylor greene, and i think it's an interesting question for robert to say what does her ascendancy mean, what kind of power will she wield in a new congress. >> thanks for the question. i mean, when i undertook to begin reporting on my book, it was december of 2020. greene had just won

in the meantime, the race for alaska sole house seat could bode the end of sarah palin's career.mocrats still an uphill battle to regain the chamber with forecasters saying that one in five chance of keeping their majority while predicting a gop gain of 12 to 25 seats. joining me now is dave wasserman, senior editor for the cook political report. dave, welcome. as we look at these polls, they pretty much show economy being top issue in the midterms. republicans have certainly tried to harness themselves as the one capable of turning things around. is there any move for democrats to gain momentum on this issue over the next ten days? >> republicans have the momentum right now in the battle for control of the house. but this is an unusual year because we're looking at a split screen election between red and purple states where democrats and house races are actually performing pretty well in many cases. such as, this person in alaska and kansas. on the other hand, a lot of democrats are struggling in districts that biden carried in 2020 in boosts. some of the highest profile names o

we saw sarah palin laws. ok. -- sarah palin lost. ok. it may help us elect more candidates that are may be more representative of their constituencies. >> so, governor, your experience is instructive. you could not have been elected twice if you did not connect with republicans. what is the secret sauce that politicians can use to do that? governess sibelius: we are so in some ways schizophrenic in kansas about statewide offices. immigrants and elect governors, attorneys general, treasures and other folks, but national democrats -- we cannot elect the united states senator. there is something about sending a kansan to washington, they disappear into the ether and they are nervous about that. i had people say to me are you one of those national democrats? i say, i don't know what that means, exactly. i am here in kansas. i do think it is about people having a, eventually a body of work that can counter the tag people are trying to put on them. that is helpful. having people like you is helpful. i was always, benefited when i started runni

the sarah palin, i think, was 2008, if i remember. >> oh 08, yeah.et me can is ask you about the backdrop of the markets. i know now and hen the republicans have reminded democrats maybe they should care about hem because they're volatile and people are losing a fortune on paper. what do you make of the effect that they play? the backdrop is a crazy market, a bear market, what do you think? >> yeah. i mean, the economy is the number one issue. it's volatile. the market's moving up and down -- neil: right. >> people are, you know, overall looking at lost money in their 401(k). that's not good for the party in power. the overall environment continues to favor republicans. neil: thank you, my friend. you're an encyclopedia on this stuff. in the meantime, when rich guys feel other rich guys are being pressured or fingered for no reason, sometimes there are those who just rail against politicians like, for example, an elon musk and those who quietly remind politicians of all the stuff they do for society. john paul degeorgia probably fall into that group.

it was sarah palin's popularity after living in two different mansions in arizona and dancing with thetars that really gave her an opportunity. palin and another republican were fighting all the way through to the special election and they are both running again. the way alaska's ranked choice food works, the top four finishers advance to a preferential ballot. it's the best thing going for peltola.republicans believe it is the most evil election innovation of all-time. it is true. republicans combined for a strong majority of the vote in the primary round but it was the democrat who ended up winning the seat. this system gives the opportunity for candidates who are more towards the middle to cobble together a coalition and allow them to have a chance for the party to have more power in a state that leans in one direction. i don't think we are likely to see it adopted in other places. another district to watch his maine'-- is maine's second congressional district. it is possible the republican will finish first on election night with less than 50% of the vote. because there is an indep

for example, is a really clear example where with the tea party sarah palin was calling on women to be kind of mama grizzlies and protect your cubs from government overreach or from immigrants or whatever it is. right? so a lot of this can attract women, especially when women are in charge, you know, and it's a woman calling on you to lean into your role as a mother or as a wife for lina. and that's exactly the reason i think that is liberal feminism is making a very different argument about women don't identifies right. and so quite frankly, they have no investment in advance the feminist agenda. right. but some of these women use the hillary clinton example. do identify as feminist they're taking on or they're endorsing their supporting the victories of women leaders who are who, who victory signal really the undermining of feminist goals around all sorts of empower. absolutely. i think we have to hold the contradiction sort of in our hands while we're understanding, as you can't assume that a woman is going to be supportive of any rights for women. and in fact, in these cases, we're

in "focus" now we welcome sarah palin. former alaskan governor. current lay candidate for alaska's lone united states house seat. welcome. >> thank you so much. >> harris: let's start right there. i really want to get your take on reaching voters. what do you see is going on behind the scenes with voters? >> democrats are focusing on issues they want to get people all stirred up in terms of crisis and drama. normal people, voters are talking about gas, groceries, grandkids. they are talking about long-term solutions to the challenges we're facing. i think democrats are wasting their money on those ads, the abortion ads. that is not the issue. the issue the economy, they don't have good answers. it doesn't matter how much money they are throwing at an ad. they don't have good answers. >> harris: you saw the inflation numbers today. we're red hot right now. the fed wants to cool down the economy with higher interest rates. we're getting farther and farther away from americans being able to afford the american dream now. it's affecting everything. >>

it didn't start with sarah palin, it's started with newt gingrich and a lot of other factors leans whereare today in the republican party. but the palin decision was a real demarcation point. and a line of dominoes that fell. and it's a good point that i think david was going to make it to. palin could've been a campaign finance. which is reacting to the crowds at the time, she kind that off that anger and bitter resentment that so many people had. and there's a lot of that out there today. that's the kind of thing that is fueling a lot of the republican candidacies and the marjorie taylor greene's we see out there. she seems to be talking to people on the street night here, and i see, i've seen it this week. they're mad and they see marjorie taylor greene as somebody who's going to fight for them. >> all right then, they've been marked, thank you both for joining us. we will definitely see you again before the election. coming up -- tony here from creditrepair.com, helping people see the true cost of bad credit. what are you doing to improve your credit? should i be doing something? abs

she is like sarah palin without a john mccain. sarah palin gave that speech, when she accepted the nomination at the convention, the hairs on the back of my neck stood up. i thought holy c-r-a-p, this woman can talk and be real and be vulnerable and people are going to like her. that's what this kari lake is doing. did you see her vacuuming the rug before donald trump got there? what kind of phony baloney is that? give me a break. she's drying to do all the stuff that is funny and plays to people that never get beyond the headline. that's the scariest kind of politician there is, and she's trouble. the people in arizona better get off the couch and get to voting in this election and realize she is as bad as donald trump, in fact, worse, because she's got a shinier package. >> tragically, and mostly what i've learned from watching vaughn's reporting, that's what they like about herment vaughn hillyard, thank you. ari berman, equally amazing. a.b. stoddard, thank you very much. thank you all very much for having this conversation. i

won a district in alaska that hasn't been represented by a democrat for 50 years, beating sarah paliner or not we're going to have freedom. freedom of choice for women to decide on their own health care. so i think -- i think things -- as the american people analyzed and they analyzed also the rationalization of what happened on january 6th when they saw the violence in these hearings. they've seen police killed. they saw over 100 policemen injured by violent insurrectionists at the capitol hill. which the republican national committee called political discourse. i think the american people are going to reject that kind of thinking and that kind of rationalization and they're going to vote to keep the congress democratic. >> yeah, and i know that they -- played cleanup after that statement. house majority leader steny hoyer great to have you on the show. thank you very much. we'll be right back. >> thank you very much. y skin. it's comfortable and lasts a long t time. dove men. goes on dry. clean feel all day. when you can't sleep... try zzzquil pure zzzs gummies. from the world's #1

. >> trump in heels is a phrase being tossed around a lot, and also the sarah palin comparisons.oned it as one of the states where the latino vote is really going to matter. talk about that senate race, one that's flown under the radar for much of this year, but is one that the democrats are increasingly worried about. >> yeah, you know, it's interesting because katherine cortez masto is out raising the republican challenger. you're seeing the lot of head winds for democrats right now, and that's really, i mean, it's very evident in nevada. when you look at the major states that are going to decide control of the senate, it's nevada, arizona, georgia, pennsylvania, and you know, there's a lot of sense among democrats we talked to that of those four, they feel that nevada is republicans' best pickup opportunity. they might have said georgia a couple of weeks ago, but a lot of the headlines recently obviously not great for the candidate there. it's looking like that could be, you know, the one race that this all comes down to, and i think, you know, democrats would like to see thei

it becomes a model i think for later women activists like sarah palin, michelle bachmann and somebody like helen chenoweth. there is a lineage of their between her and somebody like marjorie taylor green. >> if you could hold one second because i want to go back to chenoweth especially in light of the violence were talking about now. your work on the militias is really important and we forget how come i love, not people don't forget, but in the 1990s the oklahoma city event was enormous and the deaths is sort of chilling. but i wonder again what's the parallel of the rights of the militia movement and then to some of the violence we are seeing? and by the way in your defense this is not a present test book. it just happens that so much of this history leads to the present. >> or the rise of the militia movement in the 1990s is really important. it has its origins in the '70s and 80s with the rise of posse comitatus and some white power groups that gain steam and begin to go to war with the federal government. >> all the way back which i didn't realize. >> cathleen ballou talks about t

i'm joined now by counselor cal who represented sarah palin and hulk hogan for their respective lawsuits says she plans to sue trump next month about the sexual assault claims. what are the chances his answers in the defamation case might be used against him in that case? >> you've got this new law in new york that's reviving statute of limitations. what's interesting about this, you get these attributes of me too cases with the pending defamation case. five years ago in the me too cases were coming, that wasn't as strange. but this is a new vibe. of course the answers are going to matter. they're going to matter for that case. you know, theoretically, if there was ever a criminal investigation, they would matter for that. in other words, if it was fresh and you were alleged rape and the police were involved, you would take five on that all day. of course they matter. i'm not sure there's any real strategy not to answer them in the context of two civil cases. >> right. i would imagine that he just denied that he didn't have a case of amnesia, that he said, no, it didn't happen, it didn't

no offense to sarah palin, but back in the debate you were prepping her for joe biden.low expectations forrer had. let's watch this moment from "the circus" that's going to air this sunday. >> then we go in later to do the debate prep, and ten minutes into it, two or three questions in, and she locks up completely. and it's a pretty basic question. and it was like, what would our basic foreign policy be towards nato. and she's like, what's nato. and then everything, like, stops. we all walk outside. mark wallace is like, what do you think? i was like, oh, god, we are [ bleep ]. >> so, how does one manage the art of low expectations? it sounds like herschel walker and his team did a pretty good job of that. >> they did a great job, jake. and, you know, i mean, it was walker that came out a week or so ago and said, listen, i'll just be honest with you. i'm not that good an orator. you know, i'm just a poor old country boy that played football, and i'm going to be up against this really articulate pastor who's been doing this for a living. he's been in washington dealing w

anti-feminism that becomes really powerful, it becomes a model i think for later women activists like sarah palinele bachmann and somebody like helen chenoweth . there's a lineage between her and somebody like marjorie taylor green. >> one second because i want to go back to chenoweth especially in light of the violence we're talking about now . your work on the militias is important and we forget how a lot of people don't forget but in the 1990s the oklahoma city event was in norma's and the deaths were sort of chilling. but i wonder again what the parallel of the rise of the militia movement been through some of the violence we're seeing and maybe in your defense is it not present this book, it just happens that so much of this history leads to the present. >> so the rise of the militia movement in the 90s is really important. it has its origins in the 70s and 80s with the rise of posse comitatus. kathleen blue talks about this in her r wonderful book bring the war home if you want to report back on it but after the event, the waco and ruby ridge, those become kind of martyrdom moments for this

anti-feminism that becomes really powerful and it becomes a model, i think, for later women activists like sarah palin and michele bachmann and someone like helen chenoweth. a lineage between here and marjorie taylor greene. >> i'd like to go back to chenoweth. in light of the violence now, your work on the militias is important and we forget how-- well, a lot of people don't forget, but in 1990's, oklahoma city was enormous in and the deaths were short of chilling. but i wonder, again, what's the parallel of the rise of the militia movement then to some of the violence we're seeing? and by the way, in your defense, this is not a presentist book, if happens that so much of the history leads to the present. the rise of the militia movement in the 1990's is really important and it has its origins in the '80s with some white power groups that gain steam and begin to go to war with the federal government and-- >> it goes all the way back then, which i didn't realize. >> and kathleen talks about that in "bring the war home" if you want more background on it. after the events of waco and ruby ridge, those a
