james carville, mike murphy are weighing in on what some are calling jim crow 2.0. all of it as "the 11th hour" is just getting under way on this thursday night. >>> i predict to you your children or grandchildren are going to be doing their doctoral thesis on the issue of who succeeded, autocracy or democracy, because that is what is at stake. not just with china. look around the world. >> interesting point you don't often hear from the lectern in the east room at the white house from our president remaining with us for this conversation peter baker and jeremy bash. peter, starting with where we left off, my last question to jeremy considering the trump doctrine was mostly about love letters in the sand with leaders we need to be tough on, do you see the makings of a biden doctrine, and just how different is it? >> well, i think it may be early to define it as a doctrine. i think obviously he's taking a different approach than president trump. president trump, of course, as you say, had his love affair, as he called it, he himself called it that with kim jong-un of

james carville is here.ant to show you where the president slammed and even mocked donald trump. >> what did trump do? he eliminated that funding. he didn't use it. he didn't do it. building back up the capacity that should have been maintained and built upon, that trump dismantled. no previous administration did that, either, except trump. my predecessor needed to. my predecessor. oh, god, i miss him. >> joe biden laying it out there. it's a reminder what a contrast this was to what press conferences had become over the last four years. >> i didn't say that. >> reporter: you said it on sean hannity -- >> why don't you people act in a little more positive. it's always trying to get you. get you, get you. you know what? that's why nobody trusts the media. >> i say you're a terrible reporter. i think that's a nasty question. >> that's cnn, fake new. go ahead, thank you very much. everybody. >>> we're joined now by msnbc alicia menendez. your thoughts on the contrast? >> right. i mean, it was nice to see some s

james carville told politico the following. "there is a question about when do you out the your accomplishments. because if you say the country is coming back and people don't feel it, they get mad at you." back with us tonight, the aforementioned james carville, veteran democratic strategist, rose to fame with the clinton effort. his host of war room podcast, and mike murphy, veteran strategist, co-director of the center for political future at the university of southern california. also co-host of the "hacks on tap" podcast. so mr. carville, it is true. looked at one way, this is rooseveltian. looked at another way, it's johnsonian. on one hand, it is a huge achievement. on the other, we have this ongoing pandemic. how does joe biden handle it on the road? >> well, i mean, first of all what they did is the biggest thing that this country has done since 1932. i mean, it's just -- they placed a big bet. and if it works, fine. and the problem is that alluded in a politico argument, if you say things are getting better and people

still with us james carville and mike murphy. mike, we'll deal with that guy in just a second.ast last night, something you said about guns. and i'll paraphrase. you can say it best. they were your words. the democrats, if they overreach, even in light of these twin tragedies, that he could be responsible for rejuvenating the nra. so let me ask you, what do you think is achievable? >> background checks. every poll shows a strong majority of republican voters support tougher background checks and closing the gun show loophole. that's a winner with every kind of voter there is, even gun owners and pro-second amendment people and majority nra members. i think if schumer plays that wedge, it's going to be awful hard for republicans to vote against it. it will be a political wound to him. he might be able to get there. if they play big because of the 60 vote situation in the senate everybody's going to dig in and ironically the nra which has been on the ropes with internal fighting, it's essentially a business, they're having internal sopranos fight over different factions there. we

the one and only james carville joining us next on the program. i'm looking forward to that. hope you too. we're going out to texas. we begin with the more somber seen in washington where congress remains on high alert over these intelligence threats. capitol police are now formally asking the national guard to stay there for two more months in response to new threats of maga-style attacks as the democratic majority says they take this extremely seriously, they're emphasizing they're also continuing the work of government, fast tracking the covid relief bill on party lines when needed, which includes vice president harris casting another tie-breaking note. republicans are deploying another minor delay tactic to add another day to the debate. we begin with pulitzer prize winning columnist for "the washington post" gene robinson, co-host of the ten podcast and mara gay from "the new york times" editorial board. good to see everyone. gene, i begin with the scene in the city you know well, but under different terms, taking the security threats very seriously while still marching

stay with us, james carville and mike murphy. i will quote yahoo! news.icans believe that making it hard to vote will backfire in a time when the gop base is becoming more diverse. number one, what they just said, and number two, the republicans are leaning in to voter suppression and when they get there, they are giving it a big hug. and we can all see and hear it in all by seven states. >> yeah, this is a complicated one. i agree with yahoo! news. the georgia bill they passed down there, and there is a bill in california that they introduced in the assembly. it's going nowhere. so introducing legislation to changing laws is a long journey. i feel bad things are going to happen in twos. you have republicans putting out stupid legislation. most of it doomed but they can't win in the democratic they fear to put up more head kads for people going to vote. but the democrats have reacted with a very big, very aggressive bill, and i worry if we poss something like this, which has a big progressive overreach on a purely partisan basis, i would rather see a smal

almost 75 percent of the population saw 13400000 people depend on humanitarian assistance and with carville and sanction. additional layers adding up millions of people over the past 12 months have been further pushed into poverty and hunger saw the situation is absolutely dire and we are going to view and dark picture off a generation of the. devastation loss and destruction with many missed minds on opportunities as well as frustrated ambitions and dreams and those young people are the ones who have won video shoulder the challenge and the burden off for rebuilding the country we have always had a very open and regular dialogue with the syrian authorities so that the dialogue is ongoing and everything we carry out in syria is done in full transparency with all sides. of this crisis and and today we are able to make a difference on the ground because of this thanks to this dialogue and also thanks to our very strong cooperation and partnership with the syrian arab red crescent on the ground throughout the decade long conflict our senior correspondent for afghanistan has been covering the k

more than 50 percent of health care facilities are not functioning within and with carville and and sanction. additional layers adding up millions of people over the past 12 months have been further pushed into poverty and hunger saw the situation is absolutely dire you've outlined it a dire situation you did mention there i think that you're getting 20 percent more humanitarian aid into the country over the last 12 months that suggests that it's getting easier to get help out there what are the main obstacles for your organization doing its work. well i think the major obstacle to date is the depth and the magnitude of of the humanitarian crisis and it is very hard for any humanitarian organization to replace said the economy off a country like syria and we have to set priorities of course we we are always eager to increase our support though we are in contact with all of the sides in syria the syrian government the opposition in order to be able to reach those more most in need. and realities are different there are places where. the intensity our fighting has substantially decreased which

very precious on such a nonsensical question and it was and then but it was also lost when you have carville harriss as your running mate what is supposed to say well maybe not maybe maybe not i'm still thinking about it larry it's a silly frivolous question. what about the crisis on the southern border his task his vice president campbell harris with taking that on it seems to be getting worse he's opening up military facilities something that was criticized and the crumby is now for a while a new administration can blame the previous group in charge how long do you think he's got before election have to start taking some responsibility for this. well i says very serious problem because he really can go on blaming donald trump for this because even trump's critics like knowledge he did manage to bring the border situation under control he signed those 3rd country agreements with some central american countries that ensured that asylum seekers would seek asylum in those countries and they wouldn't come to the united states and then of course he signed the agreement with mexico that anyone se

do you disavow this claim from your longtime strategist and friend james carville? you know, the guy that suggested that some clinton accusers were motivated by money, you know drag $100 bill through a trailer park, you never know what you're going to find. and of course the biggest hypocrite happens to be joe biden himself. he's also calling for an independent probe of cuomo allegations but i haven't forgotten, maybe the media mob has. biden himself has been accused of sexual assault by a former staffer. you might remember. >> [indiscernible]. against the wall and his hands were down my skirt and up my skirt and it was very -- [indiscernible]. he was trying to kiss me and i was pulling away and what i remember of that time is feeling really shocked. i was surprised, there was no real conversation right before hand. i was obviously [indiscernible] and he pulled back and said i thought you liked me. >> sean: that was tara reade and while biden denied her claims, she is not the only woman with serious accusations against joe biden. 2019, a democratic lawmaker from nev

>> well, i think, the greatest-political strategist, who wasn't named carvill, when you asked him how is your wife? compared to sfwha how is biden? compared to what? and the desire, the need, even to blame your predecessor is much more pronounced when you have defeated your predecessor, right? democrats blame poor herbert hoover for 50 years after fdr beat him in 1932. so biden won because the country rejected trump. i also think this is a way for him to hold his very broad, democratic coalition together. which actually is not just democrats. he got a lot of anti-trump republican votes and he wants to remind, i think, those folks that he inherited a big mess. caused by the former guy, as katherine correctly points out. he used to call him. so i think it's a very -- i think it's a smart thing. i wouldn't do it every day. i think he's been remarkably -- he's supposed to a gaffe machine, he has been a disciplined machine. >> on the subject of the border, and cath lkatherine, that is re where it was most pronounced. how long do you think president biden can blame the trump administration

\s right now s \s >>> we have the great james carville and michael steele here to break it all down. up on what msnbc was covering in the last hour,ed big issue of voting rights, republicans actively trying to restrict votes. >> what i'm worried about is how

you are recognized director carville. >> thank. you good afternoon, members of the subcommittee, it's my privilege today to speak on behalf of the 67,000 corrections officials who work day in and day out to support our local enforcement mission. -- guided by the values of respect, integrity, and correctional excellence. i appreciate this opportunity to discuss the borough's response to the pandemic as well as our efforts to provide the inmates with the necessary programming to return to the community and their families. i have spent the majority of my professional life, after i served in the army i moved up the ranks in my position as rank -- the law enforcement officers make. the borough currently comprises 150,000 inmates and 2000 presence nationwide, as well as 200 community based facilities and private facilities. almost 80% of our inmates are serving terms for drugs, weapons, and sex offenses, with 41% of those being medium and high security offenders. the pandemic has made the safe management of those offenders even more chal
