>> joining me now is senator barbara boxer, democrat from california. a co sponsor of senator gillibrand's bill. what is your reaction to the fact that essentially this was killed today in committee? >> it was a bad day for the opportunity that we have to finally get things right here. you know, for 20 long years, various secretaries of defense have said, these words, we have zero tolerance for this kind of activity in the military. and we're not going to allow it, and every single secretary of defense never made the changes. we have to make the changes, just like australia did, great britain did. canada did. israel did, and what did they do? they took these vicious crimes outside of the chain of command. they have an interest prosecutor. you know what carl levin and his friends did. it's very disappointing. he's my friend but i have to tell you, what they did today is embrace the status quo instead of embracing the victimsing and using this as an opportunity to bring needed change. they kept the commanders in charge. the commander not only decides whet

barbara boxer apparently another fraud.course, falling right in line with president obama saying yes! spy on all of us. i remember barbara boxer. how she used to cry during the bush years. oh, my god they're spying on us. what obama is doing. oh, thank god they're spying on us. these people are total and utter frauds. they're not remotely progressive. all they are is yes we're part of the establishment and we're here to protect it at any costs. i think i'm pretty clear on that. let's go to our panel. ana, wes jayar i just had an event the other day. someone was telling me about how great barbara boxer is. all right. al franken, oh he's going to be so progressive. great to have him in the senate. he's out talking to minneapolis press saying i'm on the committee on privacy rights. i've really looked into this. this thing rocks. we need it. we need it! by the way you know, all of these guys, admitted there's something positive the government did they leak it right away, right? where is your leaks on how great this program is a

if you're waving like barbara boxer wants to do, she cannot go against her roots.g to chase away any chance for negotiation and compromise. because guys, let's face it. this is all going to be about some degree of compromise on both sides. and so when barbara boxer jumps the gun and starts saying let's go ahead and fund these illegals now and give them health care benefits 13 years ahead of what's on the table, that's bad for this plan. it's going to -- again, it's going to kill it. >> first of all, it's not amnesty like reagan gave to illegals a number of years ago. you have to jump through hoops over a 13-year period. that's not exactly amnesty. and those waiting are put to the back of the line. and this is key if you're a conservative who cares about money and income and the taxpayer dollars, you would think that it would make sense not to force those who need health care to have to go to the emergency room which costs a lot more money than to get health care under the affordable care act. what barbara boxer is proposing makes sense. >> shannon:. all right. we'v
