good morning, rachel. >> reporter: good morning, george.is an urgent and blunt message from the white house to congressional leader, warning they are out of money and nearly out of time to provide additional aid to ukraine. right now there is no clear path forward and the pressure is on. in just a few hours, ukrainian president zelenskyy will address senators virtually behind closed doors. he will make yet another personal plea for support. lawmakers have been at a stale mate for weeks. republicans say they will not provide additional aid to ukraine unless democrats agree to crack down on the border. talks on that issue are not go well. senate negotiations over a possible border passage suddenly broke down over the weekend. house speaker mike johnson is accusing the biden administration for failing to address their concerns about strategy and accountability for ukraine. both sides are still at the table. the white house is clearly worried that these negotiations will drag on for far too long. they insist any delay in funding would kneecap u

will: it's the biggest story on capitol hill, george santos expelled from congress. racheln turns to new york governor kathy hochul announcing a special election to fill the vacancy. pete: bring in house speaker mike johnson and house republican chairwoman elise stefanik. thank you for being here. >> good morning. pete: love to cover a range of topics and start with what happened on the floor yesterday. the vote on george santos, was that a vote you could control meaning whether it came to the floor or not and both of you voted against expelling him. what do you make of the outcome? >> we couldn't block it. it was a privileged resolution and gets to come to the floor within two days of filing and it was a regrettable day and prior to yesterday, only five people were expelled from congress and three confederates and two convicted of federal charges, and george santos has not been convicted in a court. you know, our party believes in the rule of law and due process, and we're deeply concerned about preserving those things. maybe he will be convicted by a jury of his peers but

george bush. >> she was in gop leadership. rachel talked about this in her msnbc interview.o, the damage is done, ari, and it's way too late and several dollars too short. i just think that she had ample opportunities to stick up for the american people while she was working with and for donald trump as a republican member of congress, and she didn't. so now in 2023, the rehab tour is too little too late for me. i'm not buying it. >> we heard from her, viewers heard from her on probably more than one program if you keep msnbc on. we're always happy to feature a counterimportant, a different perspective. danny, what is on your fallback list as you look around this nation of ours? >> i guess for me, vegans right now, man. all these vegan soul food restaurants and trying to sell me wings thinking it's fried chicken. it's not. they need to fall back. soul food got soul in it. i'm down with eating vegetables and being vegan, but i'm not down with the plant based and cauliflower wings. let me eat my fried chicken and be happy. >> let me ask you this, we have to talk about some of

instead of impeaching or trying to -- to oust someone like george santos, we should have been impeaching mayorkas. rachels! >> just last week we had 12,000 illegals cross in a single day. we've got 1.8 million of gotaways, record high when it comes to how many were actually on the terrorist watch list. the number one priority for me and many of my colleagues is securing our border. we passed in the house l.r. 2 -- h.r. 2 back in may, and the senate has refused to put it on the table because they want to use it as a leverage point to try and get more money in ukraine. well, i'm sorry, i'm not going to secure another country's border before i'm able to secure my own, basically taking a taxpayer, a guy who gets up before daylight, goes to bed doesn't see his kids, working extra shifts, and i'm going to tell you, guess what? 60% of your taxes, we're going to secure another country's border and not our own? rachel: keep fighting. pete: well said. will: great to see you. >> likewise. will: u-penn's president resign isinging after a shocking comment about anti-semitism the on campus. >> specifically calling for

rachel: i'm married to a prosecutor and when my husband started to see what george soros working with plan and it doesn't take as much money as a senate race or congressional race and took just a bit of money and suddenly they can change the entire lifestyle of entire community and wokeify it and bring in criminallalty and let the criminals go and the victims are the oppressors and here are some of the successes you've had. in loudoun county, the district attorney results are you had bouda and bob anderson beat him by a hair. matt dougan versus steve sapala and winning by not huge margins but if you put in the money, you can compete with these guys. >> right. both of the races were not massively outspend and put in $2 million and did a five figure targeted buy in loudoun county and 700,000 left wing groups and we spent a five figure amount and once voters understand that these prosecutors have a criminal first victim last mindset on what's their record as exposed they're pro -- anti-law enforcement and voters recoil and we're proud of the fact we've been selective of the money and we'
