they want to see them going more of the chris murphy route versus what nancy pelosi is saying. and so i think that if you do not see democrats being more forceful, more vocal tomorrow, i think they're going to have a lot of upset constituents around the country who, frankly, feel that the democrats are out of step, out of step out of touch and aren't talking about the issues that people really want to talk about. >> all right, everybody stand by. don't go anywhere. when we come back, alexander vindman. he was fired after testifying on trump's call with volodymyr zelenskyy way back in 2019. he's going to be here after the break. >> twitter. >> that's a great name. >> we invented a whole new thing. >> no one could possibly have understood where it was going. >> twitter breaking the bird premieres sunday at ten on cnn. >> this is my coffee shop. we just moved into a bigger space, brought on another employee and ordered new branded gear for the team. it was so easy. i just chose my products, added our logo and placed my order. bring your own team together with custom gear. get star

and by the way, to mixed results and no one knows that better than chris murphy himself because he, with key republican senators, helped usher in the ouster of ukraine president victor covic back in 2014. murphy himself explained why sitting u.s. senators were engaged and what certainly looked like election interference in a country whose president was democratically elected. .>>ian he velicovich was elected free and fair election maybe not by u.s. standards we certainly recognized his legitimate right to govern. when senator mccain and i went to the square we were very careful about the words in which we used. we went there in the wake of yanna velicovich bringing 9 police forces onto the square to try to forcibly break up those protests against an elected government. >> >> laura: wait, wait, wait. one problem. because he was -- they were upset because president who had been elected was crushing protests? he has banned many orthodox church services, most of them. each banned the use of the russian language in many instances some of these measures popular in ukraine nonetheless freedom f

dressed. 40 minutes before this meeting, volodymyr zelenskyy was meeting with senate democrats, chris murphyd "just finished a meeting with volodymyr zelenskyy, confirming the ukrainian people will not support a fake peace agreement where putin gets everything he wants and there are no security arrangements for ukraine". murphy got in his head, then volodymyr zelenskyy starts a fight with trump and j.d. vance and blows up the deal. murphy gets on tv and says this abscess. >> the white house has become an arm of the kremlin every single day, you hear from the president of the united states, the security team, chrome and talking points. last week at the white house has been pretending as if ukraine started this war. that is essentially saying that poland invaded germany and the beginning of world war ii. >> jesse: sabotaged a piece of doc can call trump a russian puppet. democrats don't even have a peace plan. they don't have a plan to win of this war. there only plan is to keep it going as they can call trump a traitor for trying to end it. president biden, this country has never been so clos

you are exactly right like guys chris murphy a troublemaker from connecticut and he had his left wingking point. he doesn't want peace. i don't know what he wants because he will not defeat russia and the war will go on forever and hundreds of thousands and millions of people will be killed or they will be injured. he has a bad actor here. he has a very bad actor. don't forget, lindsey graham basically called for his resignation. lindsey graham is the biggest supporter of the ukraine. this is a fatal mistake. europe will not bail them out and trump has to stay with his gun. the minerals deal is the key. you sign that and you bring boots on the ground, that is huge. it is a trip wire. if not, who knows what. >> emily: friday clinic follow up on friday, the president said i don't want an advantage but i want peace. for some reason it seems that openness to using military should not be confused with dedication to peace. the warmonger-or less president. >> trump knows but a great negotiator any has to be an honest broker. >> harris: but he has been and zelenskyy has not been. >> larry: th

zelenskyy met with senator chris murphy just prior to the meeting with trump. he sabotaged the signing of that agreement. then, set out to say trump and j.d. ambushed zelenskyy. zelenskyy and murphy ambushed trump. guest: well, i think that meeting is in the eye of the beholder. if you are a supporter of president trump, you find blame with zelenskyy that he blew up the deal. clearly zelenskyy had intentionings of making a deal flying all the way from kyiv to washington to meet with the president of the united states and the vice president as well as a number of senators in the runup to that oval office meeting. democrats and critics of president trump would say that president trump and j.d. attacked zelenskyy in the middle of that meeting in front of all of those television cameras. host: i think most member of congresses were home and on their way home when that went down. you'll get senators back today at 3:00 p.m. who you most interested in going up and asking a question about what happened on friday to what member of congress? guest: i think certainly, the

some democrats, including connecticut senator chris murphy on cnn state of the union say they will skip the donald trump is going spew a series of lies. other democrats plan to attend to put a face on what they called the trump administration's harmful funding freezes and firings. you would think mister musk might say, hey, you know what, this is a great nation. >> that has provided me these great opportunities. >> how bout? >> we care for them. connecticut congressman john larson will bring us his guest, the mother of a cystic fibrosis patients to highlight medical research. he says elon musk and don't want to cut. but the president's speech starts at 09:00pm eastern in washington. i'm jessi tenure. >> a programming note. we will carry the address live for you right here tomorrow night at 6 o'clock, our political analysts will join us before and immediately after with a breakdown of the president's speech right now to the latest on pope francis's condition tonight that the pope has suffered 2 new episodes. >> of acute respiratory crises. and that was put back on non invasive mechanical

and so you have your sensors like chris murphy tweeting out that donald trump isn't keeping up with buying his numbers on deportation. so in many ways, it's much more about the spectacle, the actual cruelty, the using, the military plains, the showing the people in shackles, and lego ends being deported. that, that is, that is, that is what trump like. so, i mean, it was just to report that they, that, that they will, they were taking a press releases of rage that happened under the obama administration and, and changing the date and reload and uploading it. so therefore, anybody do the search, it comes up with what the current date put on february 3rd. reuters reported that a donald trump's administration had actually step up the arrest though picking up about a 1000 people per day, which was 3 times the daily average of last year. now, it seems that something, it least is happening here. that's different than what we then what we've seen before. is there at least a worry? do you have any concern that things could get worse? yes, i mean tom home and the director of, of ice has said that t

senator chris murphy is reportedly also considering not attending telling axios with when president trumpeech, it's not a serious event. carly, rachel and peter. -- charlie. peter: thanks, maddie. i think part of the reason nancy pelosi doesn't want anyone doing anything dramatic, two reasons. one, what if somebody comes up with something more iconic than ripping a piece of paper? it's possible. number two, the dem99 -- dems don't have the seat behind the president this year -- rachel:, oh, right. peter: it's going to be j.d. vance and mike johnson. so anything that they would be doing, any of these rank and file members, it would just come across as too small. charlie: i really love your profound if cynicism about her motives, and i think that -- to one has ever gone broke in washington, d.c. for a lack of cynicism. it is -- can you can't have too much cynicism. i think you're exactly right about it. but the problem with it is for her she doesn't want to be outdone. but the problem is that as the protests become more and more ridiculous and futile, this was, what, six years ago a, seven

chris murphy among those expected not to show up, but others want to use the high-profile moment to highlightey say are real problems. political writing "some are bringing guests to highlight the radical overhaul including union leaders, laid-off government workers, and others affected by the federal funding freeze." while some argue it is best not to respond to every controversy, others argue not responding is even worse. >> the problem is the democrats have been playing dead for too many years. i don't think you play dead. i think you stand up and make the point. >> tomorrow night, elissa slotkin will deliver the democratic for a bottle. calling her a rising star after she won her state in the seat that the president carried last november. generated buzz as former vice presidential nominee tim walz, open to potentially running for the white house again, but at the top of the ticket. kind of floating it out there. we don't know whether or not, here is would choose to run again. she did not show up for last night's academy awards. rumblings she may have showed up there. instead her husband po

advised him to reject the terms of the mineral deal, that the present offered according to center chris murphy guy is the loathsome reprobate from connecticut. he is a cancer in the body politic. he's costly on cable tv trashing trump, trashing elon musk, just trashing every single time that he possibly can. just finished a meeting with president zelenskyy here in washington. this is what murphy posted. confirm the ukrainian people will not support a fake peace agreement. putin gets everything he wants, there are no security arrangements for ukraine. murphy's office posted that at 11:15 a.m. on friday. just an hour before zelensky was meeting with president trump. and then murphy attach a picture of zelensky at a conference table with murphy seated on the opposite side. the purpose of the meeting was to sign the mineral agreement he and trump represented have negotiated. this was supposed to be a formality. he twice refused to sign it after promising to so he will back on the deal multiple times. and thanks to murphy we now know he had no intention of signing it on friday when he met with trum

chris murphy posted this on x on friday morning, "just finished a meeting with president zelenskyy herewashington. he confirmed that the ukrainian people will not support a fake peace agreement where putin gets everything and he -- everything he wants and there's no security arrangements for ukraine". in other words, just before zelenskyy was due to sign the deal, he was telling the democrats he didn't like it and they supported his opposition, they encouraged him not to sign. then sof zelenskyy went to the oval office and rolled his eyes, talked over the president, argued with him, and killed the whole thing. the democrats are pleased and helped scuttle president trump's foreign policy initiative and piling on the insults and senator adam schiff calls our president a coward. seth moulton said zelenskyy is a hero for standing up to trump and vance who he calls puppets. is this the return of trump derangement syndrome, maybe? that doesn't do america any good at all and doesn't help the people of ukraine that have to keep fighting. one last point, in 2022, months after the war broke out,

it talks about a friday tweet or post on x from democratic senator chris murphy posted right after his meeting with zelenskyy and right before president trump and it says just finished a meeting with the president zelenskyy here in washington. he confirmed the ukrainian people will not support a fake peace agreement where putin gets everything he wants and there are no security arrangements for ukraine. i can tell you, everybody read that. i want to know how you take it in terms of the negotiations. >> well first of all, it is completely an insult. i thought that politics stops at the water's edge. this was an opportunity for the democrats, all be it reluctantly, to support president trump. what president trump is doing is he is putting putin in a very difficult position. they just don't see how to connect the dots. and i think for murphy to say something like that particularly given his position is shameful. >> harris: ambassador, it is always great to have you with your expertise. thank you so much and your time. appreciate you. >> thanks for having me. >> harris: protests in iowa af

his ego was so huge and then the democrats come in, chris murphy, don't take the deal.his guy zelenskyy is a fool. he had a fight with biden. biden even yelled at him in 2022 and said, you're an ungrateful pig. >> jesse: does this deal go through with the minerals? >> it, should right, when you look at what ukraine has at hand there is a negotiation to be made. there is a point at which they can come together, and i think all of us have had a chance to watch what happened in the oval office many times. some of us have even tried to go back further and see what that conversation was like before it came to this severe disagreement, or however you want to describe that moment that we all watched together. and it was a cordial discussion before then. zelenskyy seems to keep putting himself into an awkward position that he's having to climb out of, saying, to which the president responded, zelenskyy saying, this war is very far from being over. president trump immediately took to true social, you know, essentially said, paraphrasing, what a ridiculously stupid statement. the

that includes senator chris murphy, who has been a leading voice in the pushback against trump. he will instead be participating in a counterprogramming event. and here is why or how he described his reasoning for not attending. >> i think that state of the union speech is going to be a farce. i think it's going to be a maga pep rally, not a serious talk to the nation. we're going to stop that billionaire takeover, that destruction of our democracy, only by fighting them every single day. a lot of democrats think maybe you should, you know, fight every third day. you should reserve your power and jump out of the bushes at the right moment. i just think that we have to be on the offensive 24 seven. >> it comes as democrats have struggled to stop trump's actions in office, and really have not settled on a cohesive strategy for how to push back against them. so this joint address to congress by trump really presents democrats with a fresh test of whether they can make their messaging land and further counter trump while he is in office. >> all right, arlette saenz betsy klein, than

one of those is connecticut senator chris murphy, who has really been a leading voice in the pushback against trump. instead of attending, he will be participating in a counterprogramming event with a progressive group known as move on. and this is how murphy described his decision to not attend this address. >> i think that state of the union speech is going to be a farce. i think it's going to be a maga pep rally, not a serious talk to the nation. we're going to stop that billionaire takeover, that destruction of our democracy, only by fighting them every single day. a lot of democrats think maybe you should, you know, fight every third day. you should reserve your power and jump out of the bushes at the right moment. i just think that we have to be on the offensive 24 over seven. >> and murphy there nodded to the very active debate within the democratic party about how exactly to push back on trump, as there have been this flurry of actions and moves in his first six weeks in office. it all comes as democrats are still trying to plot out their next steps, determine what the best st

democrat senator chris murphy said, quote, just finished a meeting with president zelensky here in washington. he confirmed that the ukrainian people will not support a fake peace agreement where putin gets everything he wants and there are no security arrangements for ukraine. so murphy got in his head. in less than an hour later, zelensky starts a fight with trump and vance and blows up the deal again. and then murphy gets on tv and says this. >> the white house has become an arm of the kremlin every single day. you hear from the national security advisor, from the president of united states, from his entire national security team. kremlin talking points for the last week. the white house has been pretending as if ukraine started this war. that's essentially saying that poland invaded germany at the beginning of world war two. >> look at this dirty little trick. sabotage a peace deal so you can call trump a russian puppet. democrats don't even have a peace plan. they don't even have a plan to win this war. their only plan is to keep it going. so you can call trump a traitor for trying to en

today, but somebody who is not going to be in attendance tomorrow at that joint address is senator chris murphycrat from connecticut who's really just been everywhere, spending more on social media platforms in the month of february than in the last five years combined. this is somebody who spent his senate career focused on bipartisan deal making. he was out in front on trying to strengthen gun laws, immigration dealings that we've covered last year. this time, though, he's putting all of his energy and all of his focus into standing up as he says it, to the billionaire class and to trump. take a listen to what he told me in our exclusive interview last week. >> this may look a little schizophrenic, having gone from. spending two. >> years. >> you know, writing. >> big bipartisan deals. >> on guns or on immigration. >> to now. >> you know, being. >> out front. >> in trying to fight for the survival of the democracy and using. >> really. >> tough language. >> about my. republican colleagues. >> but i. >> think. >> you know, when somebody is trying to grab. >> power. >> when somebody is trying t
