joining us is senator amy klobuchar of minnesota.d for ukraine earlier in the month. in light of donald trump's comments about nato and the house doesn't vote this, how big a failure is this for the u.s. with grurp, especially with a lot of members of congress, republicans like myself heading to munich where ukraine is going to be a big subject two years into this war? >> you never think that donald trump can continue to shock you, but he certainly did this weekend when he said russia should be able to do, in his words, whatever the hell they want. he's talking here about a tyrant that has ordered civilian planes to be shot down, someone who thinks nothing about killing his adversaries or poisoning journalists. in this case i will say 18 republicans stood up against it in the senate despite his lobbying attemptsment they stood up against it, and they are in favor of this package. now, i would have liked for it to include the border security measures, the fentanyl -- to stem the flow of fentanyl into the country, but they voted agains

joining me now is democratic senator amy klobuchar. senator klobuchar, welcome back to "meet the press." >> thank you. it's great to be back on. thanks, kristen. >> well, it is great to have you, senator. let's start right there. we do expect the special counsel robert hur to appear before the house judiciary committee. will the senate judiciary call hur to testify? should it? >> well, that is up to senator durbin, but i will say that hur is conducting his own investigation, and he has concluded very clearly that there was no criminal liability here for the president, and that was his focus, right? and that got decided. and i think there are many other things this we need to do on the judiciary committee including passing some legislation when it comes to tech including many other issues related to fentanyl and the life that we're focused on, but again, that will be senator durbin's call. >> let me ask you this, the report described president biden as a, quote, elderly man with a poor memory. do you think the white house should allow t

i want you to hear what senator amy klobuchar had to say on "meet the press" this weekend. >> i was withver an hour, and talked about so many things, domestic, international, he was focused. his recall was good. as someone who ran against joe biden, as someone who has spent significant amount of time with joe biden, that he is up for this job. >> reporter: chris, as you said, this challenge, the questions about the president's age and mental sharpness are not going to go away. the polling that we've seen so far this year has suggested that this is a concern for many voters out there. we had one democratic congresswoman, representative debbie dingell of michigan say in this election year that people around the president need to let joe biden be joe biden. get out there, talk to people, show people that he has a command of what he's doing in his every day interactions, and to talk about the things that he's accomplished, a man of advanced years, but one they say who has done a lot for the country for the time he's been in office, and that's something they think he needs to get out there hi

.>> senator amy klobuchar said most of what they had in place to keep children safe is just not working. she suggests a different approach that would strip some of the protections given to social media sites, so that going forward, they would be directly responsible for the content on the websites.>> scott, thank you.>>> turning back to the weather, dramatic, rainy, wet and windy.>> we are in for about six hours of heavy downpours outside, as we are under a microclimate weather alerts. a second storm system is on the way for this upcoming weekend. let's show you the loop. it is once again picking up, but the cold front itself, we are going to get in on even stronger downpours just off shore. over the next six hours rainfall rates will really start to pick up throughout the bay. before we get to tracking this rainfall, i do want to show you the overnight wind gusts, gusts up to 33 miles per hour in san jose, 28 in san francisco, 22 in santa rosa. we could see this fluctuate into the 40 mile range, maybe even the 50 mile per hour range, and more trees come down, also more power outages. i

this is amy klobuchar with her take on this issue. >> when a boeing plane lost a door in mid light several weeks ago, nobody questions the decision to ground a fleet of over 700 planes. why aren't we taking the same type of decisive action on the danger of these platforms when we know the kids are dying? >> she has a point? >> the challenge is, if you want to change internet laws you have to come up with what you replace them with. so many of our businesses are built around the web. one law gives the social media companies protection against lawsuits. so many members of congress say we need to repeal that law. what are we going to replace it with? there's nothing to replace it with. you can ground planes and you're not going to throw off an entire entry if you ground one fleet. if you change one internet law and don't have a replacement, everything you do online gets shut down. she has a point, but it's harder to do it. that might be why they kept the o onus on the companies. let the lion beside how they will be punished for the kill. >> the hearings are productive. a lot of times the tech

but where the decision for him not to run happen, vice president harris, pete buttigieg, senator amy klobuchar, governor whitmer of michigan, gavin newsom of california. >> i feel like you left some names off. >> those are my top five. who did i leave off ? >> there is a long list, governor pritzker of illinois, there are some new governors, josh shapiro get talked about, it is all hypothetical. joe biden is running for re- election, that is where we are. >> he won the nobel peace prize freeing poland from the grip of the soviet union. fighting for the future of democracy in ukraine. he is here on set with me next, you do not want to miss this. so, you've got the power of xfinity at home. now take it outside with xfinity mobile. like speed? it's the fastest mobile service around... and right now, you can get a free line of our most popular unlimited plan. all on the most reliable 5g network nationwide. ditch the other guys and you'll save hundreds. get a free line of unlimited intro for 1 year when you buy one unlimited line. and for a limited time, get the new samsung galaxy s24 on us. >>> in

and amy klobuchar, today, heard on her take on this issue. >> when a boeing plane lost a door in midflightal weeks ago nobody questioned the decision to ground a fleet of over 700 planes. so why aren't we taking the same type of decisive action on the danger of these platforms, one we know these kids are dying. >> does she have a point? >> the challenger, lawyer, if you want to have to change laws you're gonna see how you have to replace them with because so many economies are built around the web. for example, there's one law that gives the social media companies protection from liability against the lawsuit for things that are posted on their site. so many members of congress say we have to repeal that law. that's something you've heard a lot today. what are we going to replace it with? there's no consensus from either party on what we would replace it with, and as a result the internet, we know it completely collapse until the issue here, we can ground planes and you're not gonna show up an entire industry if you grow one fleet. if you change one internet law, and you don't have a repla

senator amy klobuchar who ran against him last election is standing by president biden. listen here. >> why do you think -- you ran against president biden in 2020. he promised that essentially he would build a bridge to the next generation. do you think it's time to pass the torch? >> again, i'm a believer in president biden because i believe he is a good moral person that has the backs of the people of this country and just the examples i cited, time and time again people have sided with that over election deniers and the like. so i'm proud to be supporting joe biden for president. >> sandra: a "new york times" columnist is arguing democrats should pick a new candidate at the convention. former obama speech writer responded to that saying the challenges we just don't know and will likely never know. if nominating biden is more risky is letting insider pick a lesser known and weaker general election candidate at the convention with three months to go. what say you on that, doug? >> i think if they were ever going to do it they're more set up in convention style to do th

we will look more when kristen is joined by democratic senator amy klobuchar of minnesota and republican congressman mike turner of ohio. the house intelligence chairman who sounded the alarm and raised some concerns about russian nuclear weapons in space this week. >>> this morning the russian military says it has taken control of a key city in eastern ukraine just one day after ukrainian forces had to retreat. a setback in the war that will enter its third year this week as congress fails to agree on an aid package for ukraine. nbc's chief foreign correspondent richard engel is in eastern ukraine with more. richard, what's the latest there? >> reporter: willie, the withdrawal from the small city of avdiivka is a very bad sign for ukraine. and ukrainian forces decided that holding on to this small city simply was not worth the effort. it wasn't worth the manpower. it wasn't worth losing that many ukrainian soldiers, because it is right on the frontline, and russian troops outgunned them and outmanned them. that is something taking place not just in avdiivka but all along the frontline,

. >> senator amy klobuchar, thank you very much for your time. >> thank you. >> that is all in on this wednesday night. alex wagner tonight starts right. now good evening, alex. >>> >> nothing motivates people like the lawsuit. >> true. it's very complicated. but -- >> oh really? is? it literally the most complicated thing. >> very complicated. >> it's so an memorizing in a terrifying way for me. thank you, my friend. >> you bet. >> thanks to at-home for joining us this hour. it is a real hodgepodge of people and groups. vivek ramaswamy, the rnc, the naacp, hundred 79 members of congress, three former attorneys general, three current secretaries of state, multiple civil war historians, the group of capitol police officers, and rose and barr, are at least someone named roseanne barr, who purports to live in the same state where the real roseanne barr actually lives. now what to all of these people in organizations have in common? well, they have all signed on to amicus briefs. formally telling the supreme court their opinion on the question can be removed from the balloon state of calif

. >> reporter: lawmakers like senator amy klobuchar, want the rule changed or appealed. >> we have liabilityt train companies, and you have no liability against these platforms because we're still pretending that they're tiny little companies in a garage. >> reporter: another issue, age verification. the five social media companies at the hearing allow users to sign up without proving their birth date, meaning kids can pretend they're older, and predators can pretend to be teenagers. >> he said he went to a high school that was, like, 15 minutes away. >> reporter: ellen was 14 years old when she said she started communicating on snapchat with a person she thought was a boy. finding out that it's a man and not a teenager, what did that feel like? >> just disbelief. i had no idea. it shut me down. i became severely depressed. thankfully i'm over that now. >> reporter: families of victims left wondering if this week's hearings will bring about real change or just more talk and little action. >> and kate joins me now live. kate, good morning. let's take up your last point there. is there hope? a

that could actually help the bill itself and with passage, on the democratic side, senator amy klobucharto introduce revisions to the afghan adjustment act which would allow afghans who helped u.s. forces a pathway to u.s. residency. and senator hawley, who is an outspoken critic of ukraine funding, said that he would vote for final passage of this bill if his amendment on providing funding for victims of nuclear contamination passes. and so, while that sounds well and good, democrats don't have an incentive to bring amendments to the floor until there's a time agreement. and that means that all 100 senators agreed to move the process along. it is being held up by senator rand paul. i want to play for you a little bit more of what minority leader mcconnell said on the floor today because he was not mincing words with his frustration with his fellow republican colleagues. >> i know it's become quite fashionable in some circles to disregard the global interest we have as a global power. >> and so, that is just a taste of him saying, america is not funding allies for accolades, for fun. thi

we also heard from senator amy klobuchar, who also said her and her husband we're praying. she said this. they were doing their jobs. they were protecting our community. john and are praying for them and their families. and the burnsville pd this morning. so again, we are just waiting for that press conference to learn more in terms of what happened here. but two officers, one firefighter, killed this morning in minnesota, fred >> and then can i know we're still waiting for details and perhaps that press coverage is going to help fill in a lot of blanks, but we look at the images we do see that there was a park and we see a lot of police activity. oh, round. what doesn't look like residential buildings now, is this domestic situation? duration something that happened at a residence or some public location? >> at my understanding is that this view that you're seeing now is as close as the cameras can get, but it does appear to be that it was at home where a family had called for help because the governor did say that this was a family and dangerous. so i think this is just t

regulated social media amid concerns that companies don't do enough to keep their kids safe, senator amy klobuchar, she was one of those who was visibly frustrated today as she compared tech companies response to harmful content to that in-flight emergency involving a boeing plane earlier this month. let's take a listen now to the senator. when a boeing plane lost a door in mid-flight several weeks ago, no one questioned the decision to ground a fleet of over 700 planes. >> so why aren't we taking this same type of decisive action on the danger of these platforms when we know these kids are dying? >> i mean, senator klobuchar says something needs to be done about liability right now. section 230 prevents facebook and others from being sued for defamation for third party content. do you agree that it's time to repeal section 230? well, i don't know if it's time to repeal section 230, but it's clearly needs to be updated. >> uh, in particular, with regard to child sexual abuse material that's online. there is legislation that the committee has passed, uh, that would allow people to bring lawsuits ag

and they rescued these kids and that rescue cost some their lives >> that was minnesota senator amy klobuchar morning, the two police officers and firefighter who were killed sunday at a home near minneapolis. officials say the first responders were called when an armed man barricaded himself inside with family members, including seven children the situation erupted into gunfire, 27-year-old officers paul elmstrand and matthew ruge in 40 firefighter from edic, adam finseth, were killed the suspect who has not been identified as also died. it is thanks to the fallen heroes of the family members made it out of that home safely. >> an atmospheric river event driving another storm to the west coast with high winds, heavy rain, and even more flooding more than 37 million people. that's nearly the entire population of california are facing flood threats in a region that's already waterlogged from the previous storm meteorologist derek van dam is tracking all of it for us and derek, it sounds like a lot of rain, but just how much rain? >> yes. so waterlogged that we're running above eight inches abo

that's what i think you actually saw a rare moment of bipartisanship where you have lindsey graham, amy klobuchar, both agreeing with the fact that these companies have to be regulated. i thought klobuchar's comparison to what recently happened with the boeing jet, congress immediately acted on that. there was no question. they had to be more regulations on the airline industry. you compare that to the tech industry, it's night and day. i think a lot of it has to do with the fact that congress is continuing to try to catch up and trying to keep up the pace of what is continuously happening in the tech industry. they are constantly changing the way algorithms work. they're changing the way they disseminate this information and congress is trying to keep that. you saw a very rare moment of bipartisanship. this is something that truly unites everyone in this country, no matter what party affiliation you have because there are so many kids out there who are on their smartphones all day, on social media. it's really hard for parents to regulate what they are looking at. >> coming, up trump's legal bil

. >> doesn't congress get the blame here senator amy klobuchar when she compared this to boeing and nobodys, why aren't we taking the same action on the danger of these platforms when we know these kids are dying, how many child safety laws has congress passed in the last few years? >> none. >> right. >> so why -- >> it's a regulatory issue. >> you first let me raise these issues in august of 2017, and literally nothing has happened so congress clearly has blood on its hands also as does both the trump administration and the biden administration but the reality is that these companies are doing this knowing that the designs they make are leading to harm, that the harm is inevitable and those are choices they're making ultimately they're the ones most responsible for this you're correct that congress has totally failed in its responsibility to protect its constituents. >> yeah. do we end up with some sort of large fund of some kind, like tobacco? what ultimately, if you are correct, roger, what is the impact what does it look like a settlement >> well, to my perspective the right strategy h

you could've had a people to judge democrat, amy klobuchar democrat, turn around and said, yeah, i'meally gonna do that for trump? not if he keeps going the road he's going down. and the one she's going down. >> and already's point about that, i had forgotten that, a little moment in the news cycle when they clearly pushed ronna mcdaniel to put out this, to start this revolution, parties over, guys, show is done. everybody go home. tip your waiters. trump had to come out to be like let's let it play out. >> briefly, that's part of why they're trying to bring a new leadership. >> we are still anticipating nikki haley to come out and give what is, at this point, one of the most anticipated concession speeches we've had in this cycle so far, so let's sneak in a quick break, then we will get that on the other side. we are reliably informed. let's see. ahhh, there's nothing like a day out with friends. that's nice, but shingles doesn't care! 99% of adults 50 years or older already have the virus that causes shingles inside them, and it can reactivate at any time. a perfect day for a famil

>> listen, i think any -- any of the credible candidates would beat trump amy klobuchar.n he portrays him as a california governor i think any of those guys would beat trump wes moore from maryland. you know, charismatic young man. people don't want donald trump as the president in general and they don't want joe biden. >> a thought who would be better for bitcoin? >> listen, the republicans right now -- >> is that what this is? >> republicans -- lucky enough and wealthy enough that i can vote for my soul and not my pocket. the -- the republicans would certainly at this point be better for bitcoin interesting, this is a bipartisan issue and a ton of democrats on the hill are frustrated this has been elizabeth warren holding this up. she made a deal with biden to get elected. for biden to get elected she put gary gensler in the s.e.c. there's a small -- brown has a tough race didn't understand it could have been neutral and bitcoin instead the whole bitcoin army going for his opponent. you know, it was a strange hill to die on, but there's a small group of democrats that h

minnesota senator and former presidential candidate amy klobuchar posted on social media saying, quoteare still looking to get more information on this, trying to find out if there were any more injuries or what happened to the shooter. but three first responders, two police officers and one paramedic were killed. time now is 957. >> early voting now underway in south carolina's republican primary. election day for republican voters next saturday, february the 24th. the latest poll shows that former president donald trump does have a lead of more than 30 points over former governor nikki haley in her home state, but haley feels a growing number of republican voters now believe trump should never be allowed to return to the oval office. as america's commander in chief. >> the problem is, if someone is not there to rein him in, he gets out of control. look at what he said about nato. he went and said that he would if they didn't pull their weight, he would encourage putin to invade them. >> haley says trump has a long history of supporting the russian president, while harshly criticizing

you have lindsey graham and amy klobuchar both agreeing with the fact that these companies need to beoeing jet, you know, congress immediately acted on that. there was no question there had to be regulations on the airline industry. you compare that to the tech industry, it is night and day. i think a lot has to do with the fact that congress is continuing to try to catch up and trying to keep up the pace of what is continuously happening in the tech industry. they're constantly changing the way algorithms work. they're constantly changing the way, you know, they disseminate this information. congress is trying to keep up. you saw a very rare moment of bipartisanship. this is something that truly unites everyone in this country, no matter what party affiliation you have. there are so many kids out there who are on their smartphones all day, on social media, and it's really hard for parents to regulate what they're looking at. >> yet, you can't ignore the impact it is having on your kids. >> you can't. elise, it's kind of like gun laws. >> geez. >> you have one school after another, on

. >> gretchen whitmer or amy klobuchar, gretchen whitmer would beat his ass. >> my choice has alwaysiral mccraven, but i don't know that he has a chance. i think josh shapiro, i would say, after that. >> he's too young. >> okay. >> too young. >> or mayor pete. i love mayor pete. >> mayor pete would never win. >> no, he's too young. >> not yet. >> i like that, he's -- >> it's gone off the rails. >> too old, too young, what exactly. this was fascinating on a number of -- the kamala harris conversation was really interesting, it's one we should have. but i want to point out the one voter talking about joe biden not being as articulate as he was before, joe biden was never articulate, okay, he has a stutter and he's like a real guy and he's always talked that way. maybe a little slower. >> right. >> but so what? and i think also when he gets pissed off, the stutter kicks in a little bit. that's what i've noticed. interesting assessment because i don't think joe biden is this flourishing, you know, speech maker of the world, although he does a great job and he gets the job done. >> right.
