so why didn't boehner bring to the floor? >> because it would not have passed. you know, we all know what members say in public. we all know what the media likes to write. we all deathly know how the other side knows us better than we know ourselves, but i'm just telling you, the count wasn't there. it just wasn't. >> agree to disagree. >> i think probably what marie is saying we will count that the count among republicans wasn't there but that go to the bigger point that there was making. just based on this exchange, help us out in terms of the the house and what you think about the house being the impediment structurally itself as this is such a good example of how that plays out. if you take this point that there just wasn't involvement by enough members who could only issue and could represent that their constituencies were being represented, that this was an elite effort they came down from the senate and that that simply can't work in the house, how do you make sense of that in terms of what would be a better way to function so that that's not the inscript

i think boehner tossed off some cuss words as they parted.ne of them was the best man and the other one's wedding after the fact, so apparently they did not hold grudges. it was a momentary flash. brian: 17 years. why did it take so long? joanne: partly because digging up the violence, and most of the time i was finding it in pieces, so finding these bits and pieces of violence and weaving them together so i could figure out and together so i could figure out what happened, it took a really long time. once i had done that and had this wonderful collection of violent incidents, the big question was, how do i tell that story? i agonized about it and wrote different versions of different chapters and different versions of the book before i figured out the best way to make it more than a string of one chapter, one fight. brian: i don't know how to ask this because there are so many, what one of these did you find the most interesting? joanne: violent incident? brian: yes. joanne: there are a lot of them. one that stands out to me because convenie

mark: 63 seats, you got 54 seats. >> yeah, and boehner did it with a very straightforward simple campaign, where are the jobs, and it worked. people came together and said that's the right question. so we were back in charge of the house again. and i think people today have no idea how unusual this is. we held the house for two two-year terms between 1930 and 1994, of 64 years, we held the house four years. we now had the house a vast majority of the time since 1994. and along comes trump, and i'm with you, i tell people i'm not sure he's a conservative but he's the most effective anti-liberal in my lifetime. and whether it's deregulation or conservative judges or cutting taxes or standing up for an american foreign policy based on american values, every time you turn around, he is instinctively saying things which drive the left crazy, and he's doing it, i think, because of the notion of common sense, and the things he learned a long time ago. again, he's old enough, he remembers the values of the post world war ii, highly patriotic america, where people love the flag and they love the i

immigration reform when it came over by large part majority from the senate to the house, i think boehnerdecided the costs of saying no were very low. i think you see a little change on some of these issues. the examples you gave from 2015. you had mcconnell deciding there was a cost of them looking like they couldn't govern, and that motivated action. >> i also think one thing that has been pretty evident is weak being asp in them not powerful as perhaps leaders of the past. example,at the boehner the reason why he had a difficult time and did not want to bring up the immigration bill is there were significant concern there would be an effort to vacate the chair, meaning he would be overthrown as speaker if he were to bring it to the floor because there was a significant portion or small vocal minority, but enough votes , within the freedom caucus and other aspects of the congress who could push him out, so he made sure that did not happen. that dynamic continued to play out throughout his speakership, and to some extent that has been the case for paul ryan as well. a realas never been t

that was, of course, speaker john boehner.was ousted by a tea party movement that clamored about runaway spending. and the members of that movement may have cared a lot about it. we're talking tonight about what republican leaders did about it. consider that that deficit obsession was also embraced by boehner's replacement, paul ryan, and the current senate leader, mitch mcconnell. >> so the only reason the unemployment extension hasn't passed is because our friends on the other side simply refuse to pass a bill that does not add to the debt. that's it. >> what's reckless, bob, is the $1.6 trillion deficit we're running this year. >> he doubles the debt after his term in office and triples it by the end of his budget. he sends our debt on an upward trajectory that is completely unsustainable. >> paul ryan talking about a president, the last one, sending us on an unsustainable deficit explosion. now, the new president, donald trump, also echoed paul ryan when he said he wouldn't let that happen during his run for president. >>

euros and compensation will be paid out to those affected we spoke to animal rights activists even boehner del who has mixed feelings about the recent wave of incidents. these activists think that animal rights must be protected similarly to human rights so it's not surprising that the attack slaughter houses and butchers shops if the law authorizes immoral acts they may think what they do is justified in terms of morality anything that may stop the killing of animals for meat is except. but i am not sure whether illegal actions are the best way to promote animal rights is actually the question we should ask ourselves is whether it is an effective way to raise awareness about animal suffering and animal rights or if it's a good strategy then we should do it. a russian hockey teams concern for one of its injured female stars has resulted in an apparent own goal after the pictures of her it posted sparked a sexism debate the star herself though doesn't see a problem. cut. the to. cut. cut. cut. cut. cut. cut. cut cut on the it came as a great surprise to me that this photo of a normal i'm so

midterms in view let's just say what john boehner had to say about it at his news briefing show a while ago it's the effort alone to interfere american action in our elections that are actionable. the fact was that the outcome would have been exactly the same by all the evidence we have and if there were evidence to the contrary we would have heard it fine now what the meddling did create was distrust and animosity within the united states and particularly it made it almost impossible for two years for the united states and russia to make progress diplomatically so that's a huge loss to both countries but particularly to russia. so david is how you see where you are that the meddling the any thing that actually did coles if anything is to sow discord within the united states. you know i think it so discord more between russia and the united states the charges and countercharges then within the u.s. the u.s. has had discord for some time. i don't think that russia played much of a role has played much of a role in creating more discord within and among americans. but but then i would als
