john boehner admitted defeat and sent lawmakers home for the holiday. the house republican leaders had unequivocally and wrongly predicted that the bill would pass. they were absolutely certain the bill would pass. this is definitely going to pass. before we go home for christmas, let's pass this bill. we can't pass this bill. let's go home for christmas and pretend this didn't happen. in 2013, even the farm bill went down to a shocking surprise defeat in the republican house in the sense that it was a shocking surprise to them that was trying to do it. they were trying to pass it. they were able to pass it with their own votes had they been organized enough to figure that out. they shocked themselves by not being able to get it done. and, yes, the farm bill is not the sort of thing that often makes much of a political ripple. it is consequential, it matters a lot, but it is one of those giant, really boring, hard to understood bills that gets passed routinely without much fanfare. before 2013, the farm bill hadn't been voted down in at least four decad

if she goes the boehner ryan route. if she knowingly brings up a piece of legislation that looks to go out to failure, you express tell so prized that would make, you and i assume all pelosi watchers as well. her list of options is finite, it's also never a good look to pull a piece of legislation at the last minute. >> so would you rather pull it or go down and to have it to be defeated. and it seems to me you can do either thing. you can pull it from the floor and continue to have the sign and see negotiation. you can also bring it up for a vote have been being defeated and have it sparked so much concern and determination and consternation that it gets to the negotiations back on the fast-track. and you bring it up again. you know that did happen in 2008 with that tart bill out. when that bill was brought to the floor was defeated because republicans couldn't provide their foot, the market tank and suddenly congress wasn't willing to pass it the second time around. that is also possible. but this is a very messy way

she and john boehner, who -- we saw very young john boehner in the earlier clip.y each agreed they would provide half of their caucuses to pass the tax assets relief package. republicans did not deliver on their vote. not even close. she delivered more than half of the democratic caucus, not enough to get it through. because a huge reaction in the -- it caused a huge reaction in the stock market. catastrophe seemed to loom. at that point, she got it through congress with democratic votes. still not half of the republicans voting for it. she told me that vote was necessary to avoid a potential great depression. but that she thinks it is why democrats lost control of 2010. she things it was more damaging politically for democrats than voting for the affordable care act. host: that was the next thing i wanted to talk to you about. that bill is become known colloquially as obamacare but you title it pelosicare. why? guest: it would not have passed without barack obama, but it would also not have passed without nancy pelosi and her political skills. there was a point w

we had bipartisan legislation that passed the senate that speaker boehner would not allowed to be voted on in the house, similar to a with ronald reagan. we need a reset in terms of immigration. where would we be for people here working in the u.s. economy who do not have proper documentation? they are vital in terms of health care. we need to recognize they are here. we need to deal with the fact that they are part of the american fabric. we ought to allow them to earn a path to citizenship. we have done it before. it is the humane thing to do. it is the realistic thing to do given the activities that are here. to somehow suggest it is all up illegal immigration threatening -- it is all illegal immigration threatening the foundation of our country -- many of them have blended families, we need to get real about it. we have done it before with ronald reagan. we have bipartisan senate legislation. we can and should do it again. host: john, pennsylvania, republican. caller: good morning. four points to bring up. first of all, we are at 30 trillion in debt. naturally people want free stuff

because we, in the minority, joined with speaker boehner. and when speaker ryan did the same thing, couldn't get the majority of his own colleagues to back him, we gave the necessary votes to pursue and to ensure fiscal responsibility. why? because it was the right thing to do. because it was the necessary and responsible thing to do. treasury secretary yellen told us yesterday that we will run out of extraordinary measures to forstall a default on october 18. that's -- forestall a default on october 18. that's fewer than 20 days from today. yet, we talk about partisanship and we accuse others of not doing it one time or not doing it another time. this is the one time. this is our time. this is the time that the vote presents itself to us to keep america's credit worthy status. and to prohibit a national and international crisis. there is an urgency to our action, and we twiddle our partisan thumbs. leader mcconnell, i'm sure, has been quoted frequently. i haven't heard all the debate. but frequently. let me make it perfectly clear, the coun

one side says you talked boehner into walking away.bama changed the entire deal after you already had an agreement. >> are there alternate facts >> so the other piece of that is joe biden was a central part to that as well, which is a very different joe biden than we see going on today because he was the one who i met with the biden commission three times a week for seven or eight weeks. we made progress in accomplishing spending cuts, which over the next successive years allowed the budget deals, the spending cuts took the place of what happened back with the time you referred to on the sequester. yes, i think there was a little bit of all of that, joe, president obama changed the deal as well as in the republican ranks way back then, we didn't have the votes for any notion of what president obama wanted at the time as you remember, back then, you know, my party wanted to transform entitlement so we could actually regain some physical integrity and there was just not a meeting of the minds on how to do that between us and the obama ad

pelosi have the collegial support of the warring democratic party, or is she on the edge of a john boehnerck: i don't think the support could be called collegial right now. they are all relatively angry with each other. but they are holding it together for now. the question is are the moderates in the senate in particular, joe manchin and kyrsten sinema, going to give them a number they can work with ? the progressives and moderates are trying to get one bill over the other. if they can make enough progress on the reconciliation bill, they could try to move forward on both. but the key is do they get a topline number from senator manchin in particular saying what is the framework that we can work with. they really haven't gotten that yet. lisa: how doug in are the progressives -- how dug in are the progressives? jack: they are pretty dugin. i think the key issue is not whether the progressives just crumble. it is could there possibly be enough moderate republicans who side with the democrats who want the infrastructure bill to overcome the progressive objections. we don't have an exact vot

if she goes the boehner-ryan route, if she knowingly brings up a piece of legislation that looks to go down to failure, you expressed how surprised that will make you. i assume all pelosi watchers as well. her list of options is finite. it's also never a good look to pull a piece of legislation at the last minute. >> so would you rather pull it or go down -- have it be defeated? and it seems to me you could do either thing. you could pull it from the floor and continue to have negotiations. you could bring it up for a volt, have it defeated and have that spark so much concern and recrimination and consternation that it gets the negotiations back on the fast track and you bring it up again. it happened in 2008 with that tarp wailout. a bill was are brought to the floor. it was defeated because republicans didn't provide their votes. the market tankds and suddenly congress was willing to pass it the second time around. that's also possible. but this is a pretty messy way to legislate. >> funny how that happens. peter baker, if did biden white house can't get infrastructure through congre

back in 2012, john boehner said we have to get jobs. as soon as barack obama was elected it all became the data. republicans are very disingenuous is a nice term. as far as nafta goes, that was a republican -- prayed i do not blame progressives one bit for holding off on this. we see what happens when we hold off to find equity across the board. we get labor and environmental enforcement in mexico as opposed to what we have here, it never happened. so thankfully we have that. host: comments on facebook here for this one from casey who says cut the military and the drug war, invest in health care for everyone, but especially the mentally ill. upgrade the necessary infrastructures deal with flooding and wildfires. i have a much longer list, but those would be my priorities. government spending is out of control, we haven't had a balanced budget since clinton. it wouldn't be bad of the benefits weren't exclusive to the wealthy. they took over congress 40 years ago and wrecked everything for us. , crestline is next, this is jason. good morn

. >> former house speakers, republicans john boehner and paul ryan have also given money to liz cheney since all this started. >> yes. it's not clear that the republican party is their party anymore. it's the trump party. and so a lot of these debates. they may help liz cheney but ultimately, the party has moved away from there. it's not that time anymore. it's trump's time. >> thanks one and all. >>> coming up next, a heated meeting about afghan evacuations. why some lawmakers stormed out of the room. stay with us. when subway® opened they changed the fast food game. but sometimes you gotta refresh ...to be fresh. welcome to the eat fresh refresh. refresh where there is so much new, some say that it can't fit in one ad. i say... ...we're talking a new all-american club, deli-style oven-roasted turkey and... oh, that's the new steak & cheese. oh yeah, i knew that. that's the one with the new... ...seasoning. and that was the new mvp parmesan vinaigrette . right. which makes a next level foot... hold up. the subway logo? wait i'm out of time? kinder bueno? woooooow. it's crispy. it's cr

boehner and obama were at least talking about a grand bargain, and then boehner got his leash jerked, it and went right out of congress. i think it's up to the republican party. you know, the republican party, i grew up in that house. my dad was a republican. my mom was a republican. i guess in the old sense, you know. and they're there. they're still there. i agree with your previous guest who was saying voting rights is the death knell for them, the republican party. in the runup to the election, the emd of the republican party. which when they tried to get sarah palin through, they've just been off the rails. and i think out in the midwest where i live in michigan, we're not stupid. we know bs when we see it. and i think the people i'm around, and, yes, there are those who are very pro-trump and flying the flags and still singing the songs, but there are a lot of people who are over it. they just want someone to tell them the truth like in the swing county in michigan. they were reagan democrats or biden republicans and trump came through michigan in 2016 and promised these men and

but darya james, just this morning as we were making our way here to boehner park. we did see a lot of lightning and there were plenty of rain showers. however, it has mellowed out here in rome. airpark. hopefully it stays this way. back to you. >> pretty incredible to see all of that coming in the thank you very much. >> 7. '03, and another big story, big changes for businesses in the u.s. because the president has just enacted a new plan that could affect about 80 million americans, at least president biden announcing that employers with more than a 100 workers they have to require their workers be vaccinated or provide for weekly covid testing kron four's amanda hari has more. >> we're going to protect vaccinated workers, some unvaccinated co-workers. a big announcement from president joe biden and expansive rule will mandate that all employers with more than a 100 workers require them to be vaccinated against covid-19 or tested weekly. president biden says many big employers like 3nited airlines, disney and tyson already doing this. he sounded frustrated by the

former republican house speaker john boehner, and many of his republican colleagues railed against senatorz to this day for interfering in house business in urging house republicans to vote against an increase in the debt ceiling, wh john was speaker. we await speaker pelosi's mom wanted to find out h she really feels about what senator sanders had to say today. what makes senar sanders reaching intohouseven more unusual. is that the position he adcates, is already being well represented byhe lear of t progreive caus in the house. our next guest congresswoman pramila jayapal. speaker losi is no doubt less troubled by senat sander protocol breach thanhe is by the reluance osenato joe manchin and kyrsten sinema we to come to an agreement with e rest of the senate democrats and the prident. so once again today president joe biden had ten invidual e-on-one meetings with senator joe mahin and senator kyrsten sinema who are fast becoming the senators wi the most entries in e biden white house admitted to records. and once again, frustring all the rest of the decrats, setor manchin and senator ky

the big question though is the gop base because with speaker john boehner it was the base that rose upbainer who put pressure on their members and started to turn on their leadership. that hasn't happened here but could it happen? >> the interpretation we don't have to worry about trump, is that a washington conversation or is that what's happening in the real world in the former governor of south carolina said the fever has lasted longer than anticipated and then he also thinks when will we know? do we need to go through the primary campaign in 2022? >> the whole fever breaking analogy needs to go away. rachel is exactly right. mcconnell has a base problem but here's the thing. mcconnell's base is the gop caucus, and he's got a really firm grasp on this, even if some of these long shot candidates get in, they won't get a majority of just -- mathematically they won't get a majority. >> the takeaway from that piece as well could have been just as interesting as trump trying to basically press mcconnell and try to find an owe powers is how he was met with skepticism, how some of the peop

liz cheney getting support of george bush, john boehner, karl rove, it is the last stand of the old guardthis is no longer their republican party. this is donald trump's republican party. what liz cheney is saying i know wyoming as well as anybody, i am willing to take on trumpism within the party because i think what i did was right. we'll see if she's victorious in that race. even if she returns to congress, she's in the vast minority of today's republican party and the republican caucus in congress, and what that means for the future of the party, probably not directed by liz cheney, even if she retains her seat. >> little remembered fact, liz cheney, actually the cheney family has some roots in texas where her father in between being defense secretary and vice president ran halliburton, big defense contractor headquartered in texas. and remember, he had to change his voting registration from texas to wyoming to file for vice president because of the texas rule in the electoral college. you know the story. anyway. >> that's right. >> he is kind of a texas guy as well as wyoming guy. >>

that enough president bush that enough democrats would vote for that -- what happened was, speaker boehner republican votes, and we watched the stock market crash. within 24 hours, there were votes to salvage the situation. i hope mitch mcconnell doesn't take us to that point. but that is where they are headed. if he wants to take us over the cliff, and wants the economy to crash, because he is filibustering, then it will be totally on him. and the american people will know. it >> went about democrats just doing it in the reconciliation bill? >> in order to put it in the reconciliation bill, we would have had to include it in the original budget resolution. and we decided for a variety of reasons not to do it that way. and now we are where we are. and mitch mcconnell doesn't get some kind of concession simply for getting out of the way and doing the right thing on the debt ceiling. as you know, we don't just wake up tomorrow morning and say, we are not going to make our car or mortgage payments. and what mitch mcconnell is saying, the country should wake up and say to the rest of the world

john boehner said we either need to cut spending, reform entitlements, a variety of hostage demands.s does not. mitch mcconnell has said republicans aren't lifting the debt limit and that's it, they're just not doing it, and democrats need to do it with budget reconciliation, which is the fast-track 50-vote process that you could raise the debt limit with just democratic votes. there's not much time. we're 19 days to the limit. democrats just -- congress needs to get going because everything takes a long time. >> i want to play for you what senator pat toomey, pennsylvania republican, said about the debt limit. >> it is not about past spending. it is about future spending. consider for instance this 3.5, which is really $5.5, trillion spending bill. last time i checked, that hasn't passed yet. >> according to the u.s. treasury, senator, the debt limit does not authorize new spending commitments. even if the democrats are unable to pass infrastructure, unable to pass social infrastructure, if both those bills die, correct me if i'm wrong here, you would still have to raise the debt li

woman donna edwards, former senior adviser to jeb bush and former spokesman for house speaker john boehnerat large, charlie sykes. welcome all. the polling is high on most of these policies, yet we hear them labeled the 3.5 trillion, the 1 trillion, the 2.5 trillion compromise president biden is pushing all of this with the midterms down the road could be democrats' last chance for action on these issues why can't democrats talk about what's in it instead of the price tags >> well, i'm glad that you raised this, andrea, because if you look across the broad spectrum of the policies that are in place, not only do a majority of americans support them, but among democrats the numbers are actually off the chart. so i think it's really important to talk about what's in them i mean, people want -- families want child care. they want relief for health care and prescription drug prices they want to deal with the pressing issue of the climate crisis, and all of this and more are in these -- in these packages and frankly, one doesn't stand unless the other one stands, and this is why i think it's rea

also with us donna edwards and former adviser to house speakers john boehner and paul ryan.t call to the chinese counterpart, it was on october 30th because the china thought according to intelligence was preparing to attack and he wanted to reassure him. we had deployed nimitz to the south china seas and the rhetoric from president trump at the u.n. general assembly meeting from the white house had been that we have to hold china accountable and it was, you know, a constant bashing against china because of the coronavirus and the way the president was using that. so that is the context. after january 6, milley calls general lee again and they write this the book li remained unusually rattled putting the two nations on the knife-edge of disaster. so that is the context and now we have the statement from milg milley's spokesman saying he was so concerned about china misreading us that he did call china and russia and a number of other -- maybe 20 other countries i was told. he is now under attack not just from president trump but marco rubio calling for him to be fired. you'v

boehner and mr. ryan. who couldn't get the majority of republicans in their own party to vote for their bills exercising fiscal responsibility. and i'm proud to say that democrats were there on behalf of bills sponsored essentially -- i don't know the named response or on the bill but supported by speaker boehner and speaker ryan. i don't have those figures in front of me. i would urge my friend let's get off this political biden this and i don't know if those bills passed because i don't know what list he is reading from but he lists the names of bills in this congress -- we passed a rescue plan. got no republicans on that. why? because we were over having a republican president and now a democratic president was trying to make sure this country didn't fall through the small boards that our families and individuals didn't fall through the floor boards that our killed care providers didn't fall through the floor boards and they voted for them when trump was president and stopped voting when biden was presi

because we, in the minority, joined with speaker boehner. and when speaker ryan did the same thing, couldn't get the majority of his own colleagues to back him, we gave the necessary votes to pursue and to ensure fiscal responsibility. why? because it was the right thing to do. because it was the necessary and responsible thing to do. treasury secretary yellen told us yesterday that we will run out of extraordinary measures to forstall a default on october 18. that's -- forestall a default on october 18. that's fewer than 20 days from today. yet, we talk about partisanship and we accuse others of not doing it one time or not doing it another time. this is the one time. this is our time. this is the time that the vote presents itself to us to keep america's credit worthy status. and to prohibit a national and international crisis. there is an urgency to our action, and we twiddle our partisan thumbs. leader mcconnell, i'm sure, has been quoted frequently. i haven't heard all the debate. but frequently. let me make it perfectly clear, the coun

we had bipartisan legislation that passed the senate that speaker boehner would not allowed to be votedhe house, similar to a with ronald reagan. we need a reset in terms of immigration. where would we be for people here working in the u.s. economy who do not have proper documentation? they are vital in terms of health care. we need to recognize they are here. we need to deal with the fact that they are part of the american fabric. we ought to allow them to earn a path to citizenship. we have done it before. it is the humane thing to do. it is the realistic thing to do given the activities that are here. to somehow suggest it is all up illegal immigration threatening -- it is all illegal immigration threatening the foundation of our country -- many of them have blended families, we need to get real about it. we have done it before with ronald reagan. we have bipartisan senate legislation. we can and should do it again. host: john, pennsylvania, republican. caller: good morning. four points to bring up. first of all, we are at 30 trillion in debt. naturally people want free stuff. you gu

i know at one point in time senator boehner was anti-marijuana and then he leaves congress and he isoard. and, it is like, how is that legal? that is a big mind blowing. you have doctors charging to be able to give up prescriptions for medical marijuana cards. they are charging for that. and then -- it seems like you are just a drug dealer. and, it blows my mind. why cant they get on the same page and pass this through. look at colorado and the tax money coming out of there. host: baltimore, roland on the democrats line. caller: i want to first complement the host for having just democrats for the first have an hour, that was such a pleasure. maybe one day they can have democrats for just for an hour so we do not have to listen to republican nonsense. i do not understand why republicans hate nancy pelosi, she is fighting for the middle class and the poor, and the republicans just hate her. thank you. host: president biden had scheduled a trip to chicago today to tout the vaccine. he is staying in washington as negotiations continue over the $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation measure

back in 2012, john boehner said we have to get jobs.s soon as barack obama was elected it all became the data. republicans are very disingenuous is a nice term. as far as nafta goes, that was a republican -- prayed i do not blame progressives one bit for holding off on this. we see what happens when we hold off to find equity across the board. we get labor and environmental enforcement in mexico as opposed to what we have here, it never happened. so thankfully we have that. host: comments on facebook here for this one from casey who says cut the military and the drug war, invest in health care for everyone, but especially the mentally ill. upgrade the necessary infrastructures deal with flooding and wildfires. i have a much longer list, but those would be my priorities. government spending is out of control, we haven't had a balanced budget since clinton. it wouldn't be bad of the benefits weren't exclusive to the wealthy. they took over congress 40 years ago and wrecked everything for us. , crestline is next, this is jason. good mornin

around to an election you just get slaughtered, and we picked up 54 seats two years into clinton, john boehner have walked these people off of a cliff without parachutes and they can't go home and explain they're moderates. they are all going to be big government socialists by the time she's gone voting. steve: meanwhile on foxnews.com you have an op-ed biden's border disaster why it will just keep getting worse and newt, after we saw those images last week we thought it couldn't get much worse than that until they brought in the bulldozers and got everybody out, it's all about optics because they have a rally later today and they don't want that stuff back there. >> look, i think the fact is that biden and the radical democrats want to drown america and people who are here illegally. they shift them all over the country and then they want us to pay for them with tax money so that they get free healthcare, free housing, free education, you name it, and a lot of these people are not assimilated. they don't speak english, they aren't prepared to work here, and they aren't tested for covid , they

john boehner said it would be the tobias of small businesses and that the light of freedom will grow dimmer. sounds familiar could but that did not happen with the federal medical leave act and that is not going to help -- it is actually the inverse. the paid family leave act is not just here in california, but other states are an example of when you have a robust paid family leave program, there is less turnover. there is a higher likelihood somebody is going to return to work and their income growth will continue. at actually increases the likelihood that a father takes time off to care for the newborn child, when in the past it was not the case. this is something i know will have a transformative effect on people's lives we have to ask what kind of country we want to live in. i believe in family values from birth to the grave. don't we want mothers and fathers to take time off to bond with a new child or adopted child? and not risk losing their job and their income, putting their financial security at risk? don't we want that mother and father to be able to take time off to take c
