bernie sanders has wired that whole thing. there would be no point in chairman sanders getting the budget committee to agree to the shape of the bill it did not pass the senate and the house. nancy pelosi praised the bill, it's been agreed to by the democrats and the senators on the budget committee that it will make bold essential investments in our values as a nation. here's what joe manchin had to say about bernie sanders but to communities bill, welling >> -- i'm open to looking at everything that they have provided. they worked hard, they should have a proposal, the president has -- will listen to that. we'll look at the proposal, look at the priorities they have for a country, and basically look at how we're gonna pay for it. and if there are tasks adjustments being made -- with i think we should start paying for stuff. >> everything? but is this a red line for you? >> there are no red lines. >> no red lines. that is all you're ever listening for, that's all you want to know at this stage of legislation. does anyone out t

and it is to depict bernie sanders of what is violent. so that is not just a critique, that is, that is not just to give sign as a break here will make things a little bit harder for him. there it is to demonize a democrat in the eyes of the public class democratic party demonizing a dinner grant in the eyes of the public through means. well, there is no way presumably energetic and when, if there is a link between entering into an isis dash. now i know your helix is reviewing all these different emails. you have so many of them, and you need to look at them and who they can damage or they got also the things were getting done before releasing them. president obama's now bombing, i says, to as positions in libya, so it's reported. did hillary clinton use libya as a conduit to fellow strife dash and syria, the u. s. government, at the time that hillary clinton was in charge of foreign policy? as did use libya as a conduit to get to your hardest, in syria. that's well established. not just by a range of our materials, but by investigative w

i mean, bernie sanders was terrific.n him as the leader of the budget committee, and i have to say that senator schumer who was pivotal in all of this, senator mark warner at the other end of the budget committee, and all of us. we were working with the white house. we had folks in the room as well. that was really listening and pushing back and forth with each other. the bottom line was this. we really believe that it is time american people know that someone has their back. the tax code should work for working people of the not just the rich, not just the millionaires and billionaires. we believe if you ask billionaires to pay something, that's not a tax increase. more than zero. that's not a tax increase. so we came together on the biggest tax cut in history, tackling the climate crisis, which is the existential crisis of our time while creating tens of millions of jobs that we can do at the same time, and then making sure people know with all the costs they have in their life, that we'll be able to bring the costs do

bernie sanders, sometimes he's at 6, sometimes at 10.a lot of moderates aren't comfortable with. he knows that number's going to come down, and so does everyone el. so they're doing the dance they have to do. i think it's probably good for bernie sanders, he knows the moderates are going to come down and bring the number down because he can say, look, i tried, but all these moderates, i just couldn't stop them. >> fair enough. i don't think bernie sanders is going to be excited to say that. i take your point. in seriousness, let's talk about the crime challenge because this is rapidly becoming an issue that's going to become front and center especially after democrats -- obviously there's what happened in the wake of george floyd, but the defund the police slogan, there are a lot of democrats who are concerned that went too far essentially for the politics and they have to to be careful. the white house says, we're going to send money to those who need i. that's a change. >> press secretary jen psaki has been started to say it more forci

that is what bernie sanders said last march. he said the exact same thing.ight more than we are on the left. and it is an interesting argument that there is collusion going on with the government via amazing discovery process to see exactly what kind of conversations are going on with big tech and the government but i think what we all want to see an examination what the big tech task force will look at. antitrust segment whether abuse of power and free market whether big tech is engaged in siloing of businesses, where they're buying out small businesses or running them out of the marketplace. then the privacy concerns where you have big tech in control of more and more amounts of data and that data sharing who owns the data is going to be a big question we need to answer. elizabeth: that is a big one. that is a huge one. ii want to turn to this, civil liberties author, naomi wolf is considering legal action. she said both twitter and youtube froze her accounts, suspended her accounts because she raised questions about the side-effects of covid-19 vaccines,

those people like aoc and bernie sanders are being quiet right now.hey know because it is not great for the people of cuba. it is not great for americans. we need to have freedom and democracy in cuba. elizabeth: yeah, bernie sanders just moments ago put out a statement saying he supports people's right for freedom and protesting not denouncing what the communist regime has been doing in cuba an venezuela. they have been the main destablizing forces in the western hemisphere. cuba more than six decades. they thwarted efforts to make the americas a free zone. what do you say to that? >> it is just talk. they want to make america a socialist country. he calls himself a democratic socialist. they want to take steps towards that direction. of course they will not call out the communist regime directly. they will stand with the people of cuba. that is the direction of their policies. we can't have that here in america. there is a reason why cubans are fleeing to the united states and we have a large population of cubans here in florida and it is because th

on the most influential morning program morning, joe was defending bernie sanders and then debbie watson and schultz called up the president of a mississippi making the this is not reported in the us this report in the us maybe of a cold up chuck todd i. here's the host of meet the press for me much more here is no reported that there was a short herself personally called up the president of m x nbc to apply pressure in relation to positive coverage about things and this morning, george big wanting to be then then to, to my mind what is the most serious from entry point of view, it is the communications director lewis miranda making instruction to his staff to pump out a black propaganda story against bernie sanders saying that his support is violent . and to put this out in a quote on attributable court matter, what i say that is the most serious because it isn't instruction given through the chain of command to stop. it's not a discussion, it's not any one person calling up to another person. and it is to depict bernice and support is, is violent. so that is not just a critique that it

people like bernie sanders have never produced a damn thing in their life.thing. never employed anybody. never created a service or product. they know thousand run everything. these are abstractions and theories they are imposing on the country. they pretend they never supported the old soviet union like he did. they pretend like they never supported the communist regime of venezuela like he did. they pretend he never supported the castro regime in cuba as he calls it but he did. these are genocidal maniacal regimes. and they are using that ideology to attack this country every way they can. these are multibillionaires for a reason. they actually produce something that people want. you may not like their politics. i may not like their politics, that's quite apart from everything else. look, all during the pandemic, we used amazon and we used these other plat formation, they were very, very important. redistributing wealth, class warfare, government largess. the robber barrens in this world today government bureaucrats and politicians like bernie sanders who

he noted that it is a key provision that bernie sanders helped to negotiate into that budget top line number. these are the largest budget items in the u.s. debt again from the u.s. debt clock, and medicare and medicaid account for about $1.3 trillion a year, and social security is $1.1 trillion a year, and defense and war spending in area of $729 billion a year, and you were concerned about the interest that we pay on the debt. interest at this point about $401 billion a year. all numbers that are usdebtclock.org if you want to look at that website. we are break it down, for an array of education, climate change, and child care proposals sought by president biden, and democratic leaders and the senate budget committee announcing that number last night, and we are getting your thoughts as it is still very far away from that being enacted and it would have to move through the budget reconciliation process, but yesterday, a start to that process. sandra, columbus, ohio, a democrat, good morning. >> caller: yes. good morning. i'd like to say that we do need this budget. this has been goi

bernie sanders went into this talking about a $6 trillion package. in recent days, everybody's been talking more about a $3.5 trillion package. you know, a trillion here, a trillion there. soon, you're talking real money. but -- and then, there's a question of how -- how it's going to be paid for. and there will be dynamic scoring of the, you know, which we don't have to get into. but it's, basically, the assumption that it's going to make money for the economy. this is -- i think, democrats see this as their big shot to actually do something on climate, in addition to -- to the human infrastructure they're -- they're talking about. and so, they're still going to, i think, try to go for what is really quite a big, big number. and -- and assume and think that they're going to have all-50 democrats onboard for this. >> so, steven, the -- the budget committee has bernie sanders at -- at -- representing one edge of the democratic party's argument. you have senator mark warner, probably, representing the other edge of it. and so, to come to an agreement,

but i want to talk about bernie sanders here.o against cuba is because the soviets put missiles in cuba. ballistic missiles pointed at the united states. they are 90 miles off the shore of key west. you think that's okay? let's just drop the embargo and all the enemies of america just send missiles to cuba and point them at washington, d.c. that's why bernie sanders is dangerously stupid. does bernie really believe that communism would work if we just dropped the embargo? no, the regime will just pilfer all the stuff and basically use patronage to set up a permanent and never-ending authoritarian regime. here's what bernie -- and this is greg's point here -- here is what bernie is saying. he never addresses the fact that people in these communist countries hate it. they are suffering. he never talks about that, he always talks about theoretical communism and theoretical socialism, and that's because he's arrogant. and he believes that communism or socialism would work in this country, and people would like it if bernie sanders co

we just talked to senator bernie sanders about that.he votes in the senate without changing the filibuster. the new voting bill, put forward by texas house republicans, it's obviously got a lot in it that -- that democrats criticize. it doesn't, however, no longer has this limitation on sunday voting. the previous bill had limited voting hours until after 1:00 in the afternoon, which would affect churches doing early-morning voting drives which, often, favor democrats. they claimed it was just a -- a -- a -- you know, a typographical error, that they always meant to have it be 11:00 a.m., not 1:00 p.m. but the fact is this is not -- which is, clearly, seems ridiculous -- but it's not in this new bill. so what's bad about this bill, now? >> sure. well, and -- and those two particularly onerous provisions are out of the bill and credit all the democratic members of the legislature, who fought so hard to kill that bill. that -- that those provisions are now gone. republicans have run away from those. and -- and don't want to claim any cred

nina is a progressive icon to folks on the left, one of bernie sanders' senior most advisers, she said to me, look, i don't run on defund the police. i have family members who served in law enforcement throughout my life. i have a more nuanced take on police reform and yet folks like clyburn are taking the range out on the progressive movement against those trying to get a seat in congress. so we're seeing the dynamics unfold for the folks that are progressive icons and vocal

bernie sanders is a very important voice for progressives.e also got a deal on the medicare expansion. that's likely going to be in the deal as well. the reality is this is probably the last legislative train leaving the station other than those must-pass spending bills congress will have to do. that makes it harder and easier. harder because everyone is going to be jockeying to get their priorities included. >> we're going to focus on every little detail because they're important. this is the first year biden agenda on the line right now. when he goes to capitol hill to sell this, that's part of it, that no one's getting everything they want. >> but to your point, when he goes on the hill today, it's important to step back and remember politically he did run for president on big government spending programs. his task today when he gets to the hill is to remind democrats and in some instances perhaps persuade democrats this is what i said i was going to do and try to convince them challenging him is not an option. a lot of democrats will say

joe manchin is it $2 trillion, bernie sanders is that $5 trillion, where are you? where is the white house? ms. dunn: the president has had two red lines, the first and most important was in action which was not an option for him. we were going to get something done and address these. the second redline has been that he is not going to agree to tax increases for people who make less than $400,000 a year. those have been the two red lines we have defined and we have negotiated on. in terms of the overall number -- and we are at the beginning of a reconciliation process. the house and senate have their own processes. the president has been clear what he thinks should be in the resolution. he sends it to congress, it is our build back better agenda, and that is his preference. he was in the senate for 36 years. there is a congressional process and a negotiation. the understand there will be a lot of back-and-forth between now and then and probably playbook is going to enough their agenda before this is all over a few more times. no matter how many times we say that is

yeah, bernie sanders, elizabeth warren, they're all happy. but that's not where the party is. and frankly, that's not the way that joe biden ran for president. he ran for president -- >> but david, with all due respect -- two different arguments -- you seem to be making two different arguments here. you are saying that he's getting pulled by the left but the party is actually more centrist. >> yes. >> i don't understand your argument there because as david is -- >> my argument -- >> -- saying is the real story is the left has stood by him. it doesn't seem -- quite honestly doesn't seem like your argument is making sense. if you look at the democrats who are elected across this country, if you look at the mayor -- let me finish my point, john. we have a delay. >> go ahead. i'm listening. >> the mayor elected in new york city -- okay, we have a delay so -- yeah. okay. >> i'm listening. >> if you look at the people who are actually elected among democrats, it is moderate democrats. it's not the left. the left may be getting -- >> correct. >> -- maybe the most media attention. may

you have president biden whose governing like he's bernie sanders but he's not bernie sanders.s no enthusiasm for him and kamala harris equally uninteresting but if you govern like you are bernie sanders go for broke. president biden should get rid of kamala harris and go with aoc, somebody who is interesting and will take the hits for governing like a crazy socialist so you might as well get the good benefit of that if you are going to take the bad as well. >> who would be hot if kamala harris lets democrats down and they feel their numbers are bad who would be -- who is up next? >> that is the truth, if aoc and Élan omar and the squad that is in the news all the time, making the splash or the big democrats other than them? can't think of any attorney sanders will run again because why not, the same people we've been talking about would be the challengers. brian: it has been a struggle to keep up the biden administration changing its mind on everything from covenant. this week we found even vaccinated americans have to wear masks. >> the masks are being put on for vaccinated p

he knows better than anybody else, it's a big deal so the war on capitalism, the marxist, bernie sanders likes to lie about themselves, democratic socialists, they hate capitalism because that does what? it proves marxism wrong. a perfect example -- would you rather be a factory worker assembly line worker general motors factory worker and assembly line worker in russia were under the old soviet communists or in china or north korea? in other words, there is no masses rising up and overthrowing society, they don't. it is really a relatively small group of people, most college educated trying to take over the society and impose their will as they are in this country. this great america never rose up. it's called the middle class. we have the greatest so-called middle-class with the greatest wealth, the greatest access to material goods than ever before in world history and now they attack back. america? 5% of the population of the world or 3% of the population of the world, 25% of the resources. they turn on a dime. first it was if repressive economic system that doesn't revise for most p

bernie sanders with a statement yesterday. it was a weak statement. didn't really say much.nt to have to look themselves in the mirror and say that the policies that they have been pushing in this country simply don't work. they are the also not listening to immigrants came to this country and fled socialism and communism. they are always pro-emand they don't want to hear these stories and confront the policy these have been pushing in their own country. i have said it before and again i will say it again. you can be free or dependent and we holden on government. you can't be both. people of cuba are showing us that they are showing us what freedom means to them. that's why you are seeing many of them with that american flag. i was just in miami this weekend. i saw so many cuban americans really uplifting not only their own flag but also the american flag. they understand more than some of the whiny entitled celebrities and athletes in this country what freedom means. they know we need to preserve it not only in cuba but also in the united states of america. they are making

bernie sanders lost the presidency but he is shaping the agenda.gressives are obviously thrilled about what biden, pelosi and schumer are giving them and why wouldn't they be. it is going to go down as the most anti-capitalists, anti-growth, anti-free market piece of legislation ever voted on in the history of america. take a look at this list. amnesty for illegals, funding the civilian climate core, this will be paid for in one of two ways, with terrible outcomes for american workers, either they will have to borrow the money which will make inflation even worse than it is now or what they are planning on his to jack up taxes on wealthier americans and businesses and charge companies penalties when they exceed newly mandated carbon and methane output levels. this is literally insane. right now even after covid the us has the strongest economy in the g7 and these people are working overtime to obliterate it all. all of the spending, better expansion, child tax credit, all the stuff on the list ends of being income redistribution, high taxes, heavy

so far nothing from senator bernie sanders.t is unfair to say simply everything is bad you know. when fidel castro came into office, you know what he did? he had a massive literacy program. is that a bad thing even though fidel castro did it? stuart: kt mcfar lan joins me now. what do you actually think what do you think the administration's response to these protests in cuba should be? >> support them. he is these are pro-democracy protesters. they want an open economy. these people want the democratic process and if you look at the demonstrators, pictures you showed are really stunning. how ol' are most of those people, 20s, 30s, they're not in their 70s. bernie sanders is talking about a revenues that happened 60 years ago. those people weren't even born at that point. cubans have 60 years of incompetent management and their economy is in trouble. their social services are nonexistent, because of covid and lockdowns, nobody is traveling to cuba. they're really worst of all the cubans have so mishandled covid and the pandemic

he has not been on board with bernie sanders and his $6 trillion package that sanders is trying to sell this week. he hasn't given his blessing to all of the things joe biden has proposed, for trillion dollars over the next eight years. their childcare subsidies, community college and big climate initiatives. the climate piece i think might be the hardest to get past joe manchin. when this guy ran percent of first time around, the climate bill passed the house. that was a signal to these west virginia folks that he was going to have their back on issues he cared about. host: now he serves alongside major pusher of that bill in the house. guest: this reconciliation package, coming at it from a different angle, it will be pageantry. it will be more clean energy incentives you still have to figure out a way to get joe manchin on board and get coal country on board. there's a lot of things you could do in a $3 trillion package that are good for west virginia. things like expanding medicare to dental, vision, other things. there's a lot of folks in west virginia who could probably use that.
