usually it was bob novak or tucker carlson but john sununu there for a couple of years. >> on the leftand still on the left and proud of it. what's potus up to today? we will tell you. >> on your radio and on current tv this is "the bill press show." i think the number one thing that viewers like about the young turks is that we're honest. they can question whether i'm right, but i think that the audience gets that this guy, to the best of his ability, is trying to look out for us. [ music ] >> this is the pull court press, "the bill press show" live on your radio and on current tv. >> okay. on this friday morning april 12th, taking a look ahead at the next hour at the top of the hour congress woman donna edwards from the state of maryland will be here in studio with us. she is now leading the charge in the house of representatives to make sure we get a vote in the house on gun safety legislation, a vote on whatever comes out of the senate and after yesterday's lopsided vote of 68 to 31, to open debate on gun safety it looks pretty clear that we will have 51 votes by the end of the day
