but she feels that the threat of a primary puts a useful kind of pressure on chuck schumer.ere was no possibility he would face a serious primary or potentially a really mortally serious primary, a race against her very well might be, he would feel more comfortable tracking towards the center and making joe manchin center of gravity in the democratic caulkcus as oppod to the much more complicated pick they are there now. >> dangle that over chuck schumer's head. seems comfortable with that, as you explain. alex, thanks for being with us. >> thanks a lot. >>> many republicans who didn't stick to party lines and voted to impeach former president donald trump a second time now find themselves being censured for their votes. it's a move that's rather shocking coming out of the same party that cried "free speech suppression" when trump was booted off twitter. we're going to roll the tape, next. research shows that people remember commercials with exciting stunts. so to help you remember that liberty mutual customizes your home insurance, here's something you shouldn't try at home

majority leader chuck schumer has just announced that he will present arguments, arguments that will restrict what is going to happen in this historic trial. the second impeachment trial against the former president of the united states. trump, of course, is the only u.s. president to have been impeached twice, the only one to be prosecuted after leaving office. but the white house says the trial won't be president biden's primary focus. instead, he will be watching key developments as lawmakers work on his $1.9 trillion covid relief package, which the white house expects to, quote, track closely with what the president has proposed. also this hour, the new secretary of state, anthony plinken, will join us here in "the situation room" for his first cnn interview. we'll get much more on all of that come ing up. this is clearly an historical and critical week here in washington for the president and certainly for his massive pandemic relief plan. our senior white house correspondent phil mattingly is joining us right now. phil, the white house believes the bill being crafted by congres

it does sound as though the senate majority leader chuck schumer and his republican counterpart, mitch mcconnell, have reached an agreement on how all of this is going to play out over the next week. could be two weeks, jake, from what we understand, talking to our sources. meantime, though, the other news of the day coming from this impeachment trial is that the former president's impeachment team has revealed some of its defense strategy if the senate somehow decides to convict the former president, his impeachment team is saying it's unconstitutional to even put him on trial at this point. one white house official told me the president should be held accountable for the events that took place january 6th. at one point this official told me former president, at one point was, quote, loving the capitol mob. scrambling to escape accountability for the insurrection he helped incite on january 6th, donald trump's defense team is arguing the former president is totally blameless for the bloody siege at the capitol. in their latest filing before the impeachment trial begins tuesday, his la

just at the top of the stairs there chuck schumer as well here as the rioters stormed the capitol building on january the 6th the senate also heard house speaker nancy pelosi was evacuated from the complex immediately before the writers broke into her office the impeachment managers stacey plaskett argued if they found her they found nancy pelosi quote they would've killed her on a charge within sizing the attack on capitol hill one more day of evidence against him to be heard on thursday before his legal team presents its defense alan fisher has a report now from capitol hill the day was punctuated by video much of it which had never been seen before much of it security footage from actually inside the capitol building itself senators could only watch on in horror as the saw hope police officers were overwhelmed cody sent frantic radio messages are going for help how the student gains the violent tide that swept towards them threatening to challenge the result of the presidential election at the very heart of american democracy. the evidence will show that he clearly incited the generous

. >> senate majority leader chuck schumer and other leaders are calling on president biden to use executive action to cancel in federal student loan debt for $50,000 all borrowers. sen. schumer said the legal authority is there for such action and urged the president. senator schumer: thank you for coming and joining us. we are a tough and dedicated group. we are having an outdoor conference. representative jones -- is representative clayborn here -- >> there he is. >> there you go. >> this a debt holds people back from buying cars, going on vacations, from starting families, from getting the job they want to get. it is a huge anchor on our entire economy and there is very little the president could do with the flick of a pen that would boost our economy more than canceling $50,000 of student debt. it would be a huge push into our economy. the bottom line is this is one of those things the president can do on his own. senator warren and i have researched this thoroughly. other presidents have done it. another magnitude we are asking, but the fact they have been able to do it shows there is

senate majority leader chuck schumer made an announcement that a power-sharing agreement between the two parties has been reached. here is what he said just moments ago. >> i am happy to report this morning that the leadership of both parties have finalized the organizing resolution for the senate. we will pass the resolution through the senate today which means that committees can promptly set up and get to work with democrats holding the gavels. >> also today, critical moment for the republican party. the future of the gop really hanging on the fate of two congresswomen, both right now facing rebuke for strikingly different reasons. liz cheney because she voted her conscience in voting to impeach former president trump, and marjorie taylor greene who has continued to push dangerous conspiracy theories. republicans are split over what should happen next with both of their roles. the decision could change the direction of the party as we know it. let's begin with jessica dean who joins us on the hill with more on this power sharing agreement. >> reporter: the big thing here is democr

chuck schumer, of course, is going to vote to convict president trump.ck schumer often played the race card when asked if donald trump is racist, he said well, he has said racist things. 1974, a young upcoming ambitious politician named chuck schumer met with racist neighbors in an area in new york called "flat bush." there were two buildings that had black tenants. they weren't causing any problems, they weren't committing any crimes but the racist neighbors wanted them out. the young schumer met with the neighbors and said, "look, here is what i'll do. vote for me and i will introduce a measure to renovate the buildings. they will have a right of first refusal, of course. make them so nice they won't be able to afford to come back." voila! he introduced a scheme to do that. unfortunately for schumer and the racist neighbors the blacks were able to come back with the money to move back in the dings that were nicer than the one they left. the man attending the meeting is jay homnick for "american spectator" and he wrote about it in 2006. i interviewed hi

chuck schumer was engaged in all politics and not focused on facts or reality. the facts and reality are that texas has some of the lowest energy prices in the country. cost-of-living is a portable pier there is a reason people are playing the state of new york. there is a reason people are fleeing the state of california because the cost-of-living is so high. that meant and women can afford to be there but where in texas much, much lower and we just came off of a very difficult week where the grid failed 4 million texans. so we need to have a serious examination about why that was, why the grid became short, but one of the major elements of that is actually the policy that chuck schumer is pushing for the whole country, which is the green new deal. you look at texas right now, about 25% of our electricity capacity is wind. and yet, in the middle of this storm, that capacity dropped all the way to 2%. you want to talk about reliability. the reality in the cold, the wind turbines froze and the power generation wasn't there. that means to be fixed and by the way,

we're fighting to get it and so far so good. >> yes, senator chuck schumer uses a flip phone.did you expect him to use? so that unity in the senate is something that is very, very hard to hold on to. and, so, what have you learned in the house in getting -- getting the minimum wage into the bill in the house that is helpful for chuck schumer to try to hold on to it in the senate? >> i just keep reminding everybody that we won the senate majority, the house majority and the white house because black, brown, indigenous, poor working people across this country were crying out for help and for a change in leadership and they were willing to give democrats one more shot at really trying to get them the relief that they deserve and that they need. and i'll tell you that moral argument right now actually did do a lot to keep people together in terms of what democrats promised on the campaign trail and what we now have to deliver. and, lawrence, you know we don't have a lot of time here. the midterms are in two years. we need to show people that their lives are approach yeahbly better

chuck schumer of course is going to vote to convicte, president trump. schumer has often played the race card when asked whether or not donald trump is a racist. he said, well, he has said racist things. 1974,om a young, upcoming ambitious politician named chuck schumer met with some racist neighbors in an area inin new york called flatbush. two buildings, tucker, that had black, and ends. they weren't committing any crimes. these racist neighbors wanted them out. young schumer met with the neighbors and said, here's what i'll do. i'll introduce a measure to renovate these buildings. they will have a right of first refusal, but we'll make them so nice they won't be able to afford to come back. and voila, he introduced a scheme. unfortunately for schumer and the racist schumer, the blacks were able to come back with money that were nicer than the eggs, and they left, but not foh want of trying. the man attaining this meeting is j how many , and writer for "american spectator." i've interviewed him many times on my radio show and i've asked him, h has anyb

and the republicans in the senate, how they are working with chuck schumer.e any of the calls for bipartisanship from the president or chuck schumer, they are not interested in joining a lot of these issues. they will keep the razor-thin margin in the senate, 50/50, to figure out how to push democratic policies through. we will see a big answer in how they play out in the upcoming stimulus be debate and how that plays out, kasie. . >> chuck schumer is up for re-election in 2022, which makes it tricky with his progressive left. and republicans like susan collins are angry with how he ran campaigns against them. nick, let's talk for a second about republicans. you guys have done a poll to kind of try and get a sense where republican voters are on gop leaders. what did you learn? >> a poll of republicans. the big split is the pro trumpers and less pro trumpers. kevin mccarthy and on the other side, mitch mcconnell and liz cheney. he went down to mar-a-lago. they are pulling more favorable in the party than mitch mcconnell, who has been lukewarm. it speaks very m

without so much as getting a g telephone call from nancy pelosi or chuck schumer. with ilhan omar's old anti-semitic comments were revealed or when she mocked americans for fearing al qaeda and 9/11, where there any repercussions? of course not! because democrats always stick together no matter what. and it gets even better. with biden in the white house, liberal ideologues have become so emboldenedom that they aren't content to manage the affairs of their own party, they are now determined to control the makeup well. republican party as case in point, the most recent washington fixation with freshman congresswoman marjorie taylor greene. >> what i heard, of all the crazy things that greene has said, the queue and on stuff, the park lane school shooting false black conspiracy theories, it's the endorsement of political violence. >> laura: since january 6th, democrats have felt empowered to pick off republican adversaries on the ground on the grounds that they aren't more lawyerly fit for committee positions or nsin some cases serve out their term. >> let's bring up

also breaking tonight, senate majority leader chuck schumer has left open the door to censure former ident donald trump if the senate votes to acquit him for a second time. here's what schumer told chad pergram today. >> i think the president should be tried. i hope he will be convicted. anything past that is something we can discuss, but he deserves conviction. nothing less. lou: well, well, well, that's what you're dealing with, ladies and gentlemen. our next guest has been working with former president trump to prepare, to prepare for next week's so-called impeachment trial. the former president's team today filed a 14-page response to the radical dems' impeachment case such as it is. they are asking the senate to dismiss outright the dems' article of impeachment. joining us is jason miller, senior adviser to the former president. jason, good to have you with us. i know where to start, start with the constitution. first of all, why is it incumbent upon the president to proceed with a impeachment when he does not hold office? everything that the democrats have done to this point is

he will pay the price, but when to be impeach chuck schumer or is it just okay for the democratic leader in the senate to threaten members of the u.s. supreme court outside their own building? and she vowed to take trump out tonight and called on supporters to also attack cabinet officials. they are not wanted anywhere anymore, get a crowd and everything, take a look. >> if you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, and a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you tell them they are not welcome. >> with this kind of inspiration, i will go and take trump out tonight. >> sean: windows congresswoman waters get impeached for that violent inciting rhetoric, a call to insurrection if they love that turn so much. what about vice president kamala harris during the height of the summer's riots right after the police precinct that met him minneapolis was burned to the ground, this is what then senator harris had to say. take a look. >> this is a movement, i'm telling you. they're not going to stop and everyone beware because they're not going to stop and they're not going

how about senate majority leader chuck schumer on the steps of the united state supreme court? >> i want to tell you, or you willpay the price. [cheers and applause] if you go forward with these awful decisions. >> sean: you will pay the price! but when do we impeach chuck schumer, or is it okay for a democratic leader in the senate to threaten members of the u.s. supreme court outside their own building? of course, without maxine waters? she vowed to take trump out tonight, calling supporters to also attack cabinet officials. they are not wanted anywhere anymore, get a crowd and everything. take a look. >> anybody in that camp it cabinet in arestaurant, gas sta. you tell them that they are not welcome. with this kind of inspiration, i will go and take trump out tonight. [cheers and applause] >> sean: when does congressman waters get impeached for that violent inciting rhetoric? the call to insurrection, if they love that term so much? what about vice president kamala harris during the height of this summer's riots? right after the police precinct in minneapolis was burned to t

senator rand paul said impeach chuck schumer. how would that work? will it just become a political football now? >> yeah. it is a political football when republicans take over the house. you should expect them to impeach someone, maybe a president, maybe a member of congress or a senator. it is just going to be a back and forth and ultimately it is not good for the republic. >> harris: could you impeach chuck schumer? i just want to know how it works. >> congress plays by their own rules and sets their own rules. there has been historically senators that have been impeached. in fact, after they were done serving. so this is something that will be again it's cheapening the impeachment standard. distracting congress right now from what they should be worried about like arresting the violent crime epidemic in our major cities. doing more for the covid-19 challenges we face. and also so many other things that the people of america want congress to work for them. >> harris: right. so, you know, there has been this thought among republicans that they want

let's get more on the details coming out of congress from majority leader chuck schumer. he saying as an addendum to not having the minimum wage increase in the stimulus bill? >> what schumer is talking about is an idea that we started hearing about last night from senator sanders and senator ron wyden. the idea is that they can do something in regard to taxes to penalize large companies not paying their workers at least $15 in minimum wage. this could be in the form of revoking tax deductions. the details are being worked out. hearing that schumer is considering it gives the proposal more momentum and possibility to get into the final stimulus package. guy: in terms of how close they are sailing to the wind on this one, what is the mechanism? how close to the mechanism of getting this thrown out are the? -- are they? emily: there is a crinkle in figuring out what has to be done with the $15 minimum wage, but even if it had been approved there would still be a debate because some democratic lawmakers didn't support that. the house is on track today to pass this bill. that

impeachment trial and it shows how close the rioters got leading politicians like mike pence and chuck schumer as the mob stormed the capitol building on page one manager joaquin castro said trump did nothing even when the writers went looking for his own vice president over an hour and a half into the attack and this is what he tweeted and he still even at this point did not acknowledge the attack on the capitol let alone condemn it instead he further incites the mob against his own vice president whose life was being threatened some of these insurgents were heard saying quote that they hope to find vice president mike pence and execute him by hanging him from a capitol hill tree as a traitor the other headlines tens of thousands of people in myanmar are protesting protesting for a 6th consecutive day against the military coup but the army is not backing down and has detained another close aide of the deposed civilian leader aung san suu kyi who is under house arrest earlier the united states it's imposing sanctions on those responsible for the military takeover. the families of 35 workmen th

remember, chuck schumer, on the steps of the supreme court, threatening two u.s. supreme court justices, right there, on the steps of the court, should he be impeached for insurrection? or joe biden fantasizing about taking president trump behind a gym and beating the hell out of him? is that insurrection talk? just days after minneapolis precinct burned to the ground, violent riots wreaking havoc on multiple cities, kamala harris saying, well, they are not going to stop, and everyone be aware. take note. because they are not going to stop. they are not going to let up. and everyone take note, on both levels, that they are not going to let up, they should not, and we should not. then, of course, congresswoman maxine waters, chairwoman of the house financial services committee. powerful committee. she was rewarded with this leadership position after she called on supporters to harass and attack white house staffers after she threatened to take trump out tonight. just this week, waters claimed president trump should be charged with premeditated murder. first-degree

well he is controlled by chuck schumer. why is chuck schumer wearing a kenta cloth.-semitic ideology juice foment racial division in order to take over. they push in the kkk ideology, they push for racial division. push for a race war in order to divide the country. so the juice are controlling pelosi. the jews are the elites that have betrade you. how? they betrayed you into wars. they betrayed the white working class into poverty. and who is the representative who is going to save you from the elites, the ones mo control hollywood, the chuck schumers? donald trump. >> how can you know this is their intention and not just something you are describing? >> the way politics works is you can never know. there is always plausible deniability. but hollywood in anti-semitic ideology we've got hollywood is controlled by the jews, chuck schumer wearing a kenta cloth. this is deeply embedded in our social memory. >> you think who ever did this knew what they were doing. and of course it winds up being no coincidence that they gave someone a pass who believes in an organize th

seeing chuck schumer. mitt romney, who by the way, is pretty nimble. i've seen him play touch football. >> to see him run away, to see chuck schumer, it is very visceral. i was surprised by that. at the emotion that that elicited. laura, i have to tell you i'm very surprised by the political positioning that the house managers have used. i think it's incredibly defend defendant. >> praising pence left and right. >> this is mike pence being escorted down. you can choose mike pence or donald trump but you can't choose both here. i think that is a very interesting and, again, effective strategy to make them go on the record to vote against the life of vice president mike pence. >> yeah. explaining that dichotomy, exploiting the fact that the gop is a fractured party right now as you mentioned. some people talking about breaking off to create their own party. charlie depp mentioned it to chris cuomo last night. the idea here -- you saw this also in the video of the chance of destroy the gop, right? there's a fracture here that trump was able to exploit but

>>we cannot delay we cannot dilute senate majority leader chuck schumer says there are items in the proposal that republicans support. >>there's agreement universal agreement we must go big and bold the white house meeting with senate democrats comes after president biden met with their republican counterparts earlier this week if president biden works with republicans and we make some modifications to his plan it's entirely possible that there would be. >>some republican support utah senator mitt romney is calling on president biden and democrats to act in a bipartisan way. but if it goes forward without any changes from what was originally proposed. i would predict that not a single republican will support other one 0.9 trillion dollar plan in one area of disagreement between the 2 is funding for state and local governments the king for myself if there is 0 for state local i think that's a nonstarter delaware senator chris coons says the gop plan doesn't offer any. no winning support from republicans in the senate is going to be vital for president biden considering the senate has that 505

chuck schumer. why is chuck schumer wearing this? in anti-semitic ideology, jews push in the kkk ideology, they push for racial division and a race war in order to divide the country. so, the jews are controlling pelosi, the jews are the elites that have betrayed you. how? they betrayed you into wars. who is the representative going to save you from the elites? donald trump. >> how do you know this is their intention and not just something you are describing? >> the way that politics works, you can never know. there is always plausible deniability. but hollywood in anti-semitic ideology, hollywood is controlled by the jews. chuck schumer. this is the type of thing deeply embedded in our social memory. >> you think whoever did it knew what they were doing and it winds up no coincidence they gave someone a pass that believes in an organization that thinks jews shoot lasers from outer space to start wildfires. now what you believe is a thoughtful evolution of argument or chaos. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> what do you see? >> we see the years before

. >> but it was majority leader chuck schumer who wiped out bipartisan.e the sun rose. it erased 15 hours of work. democrats voting in lock step to approve schumer's plan. this is ironic because democrat joe manchin touted the virtue of working across the aisle. >> we are going to make this work in a bipartisan way. my friends on the other side are going to have input. and we're going to do something that we agree on. >> overnight manchin teamed with main republican susan collins to offer an amendment to target stimulus checks but then manchin sided with schumer's plan, shattering his own proposal. the senate defeated one amendment on a party line vote which would block funding from school reopenings even if teachers were vaccinated. house speaker nancy pelosi told democrats she wants to pass the bill before the end of the month. covid relief now slips behind the scenes for a week or two as the senate starts the second impeachment trial on tuesday. both democrats and republicans are pushing for a fast trial. so far there are no parameters for a trial. for

yeah this morning senate rather majority leader chuck schumer and other democrats. they held a press conference said they say that they want up to $50,000 in student loan forgiveness, but. >>the white house says right now the president is only comfortable with the smaller amounts. democrats argue canceling student loan debt would increase homeownership it would improve credit scores and produce jobs and more but some republicans say loan forgiveness is unfair to other americans. >>other presidents have done it there is legal authority canceling student loan debt is the single most effective executive action that president biden can take to help close the racial wealth gap we're going to forgive $50,000 that we're going put it on the backs of everybody else. >>i don't think that's the right avenue. >>today statement by the white house press secretary suggests that the administration is actively considering its options. even while officials insist that their preference would be for a bill to originate in congress. >>still ahead let them play are now a panel of health

>>well according to the senate leader chuck schumer he saying that he's confident that his members are going to all vote the same way now some of them may have disagreements with things in the package that's why they're voting on those amendments right now but he's saying that the democrats will stick together and they're hoping some republicans will join them as well. final question will they be able to walk and chew gum at the same time basically. >>is the senate going to be able to do the covid relief and end the former president trump's impeachment trial. >>we know the trial starts next tuesday. but we don't know exactly the timeline or schedule but the senate leaders at least on the democrat side are saying that they can do both because they're calling both of these items. a top un high priority. >>i wish i had to live for us tonight from washington, thank you for that live report. >>knight was for your money tonight, the number of americans seeking unemployment benefits declined to 779,000 last week but it is still a historically high total. it shows that a sizable number of peop

when he got quotes from chuck schumer on what he said, we were very critical of chuck schumer on thised and said, i shouldn't have said what i said. the words came out of my mouth wrong. still no apologies from rand paul for inciting riots with his words, with his lies. still no apologies from donald trump for inciting riots with their lies. still no apologies from ted cruz or of course no apologies from josh hawley for their words and their votes that incited riots and their lies, the big lie that led to the death of cops. rand paul still never apologized for spreading a conspiracy theory that led to the cop killers rushing in and killing cops. he's got that on his record, rand paul is, for the death of that cop but he'll never apologize for that. neither will lindsey graham. bill, you vote to impeach in the house. it is like a charging document. i know you are not a lawyer. but the trial takes place in the senate. so if you and tommy tuberville is get your arms around the basis of this process, maybe you will be better when this begins. finally lindsey graham wants you to move along

chuck schumer has taken the mic.n the senate confirms denis mcdone -- mcdonough. he was the v.a. has one of most sacred missions of all our agencies, taking its motto from president lincoln's second inaugural address -- to share for those who have borne the battle. but the task of achieves that mission is one of organization, institutional know-how and administerive troubleshooting. i'm conferring that mr. mcdonough's qualifications make him well qualified. even as senator prepare to sit as a court of impeachment, the senate will continue its work on other responsibilities. committees will continue to process nominations, including the nominees to lead the epa.s, the department of commerce, department of labor, and office of management and budget. at the same times committees will continue pressing the work of addressing the covid crisis. last week, in the early hours of friday morning, the senate passed a budget resolution that will pave of way for president biden's american rescue plan. as promised, the senate held

so the difference between the president and chuck schumer is chuck schumer got lucky that his crowd wasn't that big and wasn't as violent but they did bang on the doors of the court, they threw food at the justices, scared them half to death as they chased them out of the building. so yes, both sides are guilty of this. our cities have been burning for six months and not one democrat says a word. i'm willing to condemn what happened at the capitol, but i'm still waiting for the first democrat to condemn any violence happening in their cities. kamala harris was bailing out people in minneapolis. she bailed out one guy three times. the last time he was bailed out, he cracked a guy's head open. that's what the other side is doing. nobody is blaming them. it would be unfair to say it's their fault. but let's have the same standards. let's not have a double standard here. >> neil: all right. let me ask you finally, senator, i tonight know and you're closer to this than i am if there's enough votes for 17 republicans to follow their conscious to convict the president. you think the house manager

when we showed up and we found out that yes, chuck schumer had called justice roberts and this hasn'tely, but he did and justice roberts said heck no i'm not going to cross the street because you're not impeaching the president. this was a strong signal to all of us that this was going to be a partisan hearing with a democrat in the chair who was already voted for impeachment. to get any fair rulings out of a democrat that's already expressed favor for impeaching previously and is going to vote this time to impeach him? so it is a farce, it's unconstitutional but more than anything its unwise and divides the country. if biden thinks he really -- if he really meant anything about that unity and he really wanted to be a statesman, he would have come out and told his party enough is enough, let's move on, we won the election and let's move on with our agenda but instead they can't let go of president trump and they're going to keep kicking and kicking and kicking butt to the rest of the country and to most of the republicans, it looks like bitter rancor that they can't get the election,

you heard me play chuck schumer on the steps of the supreme court. i read kamala harris' statements. if you apply that standard that they're using to define an insurrection against donald trump, does it ohr does it not apply to them? >> i don't think it applies to any of them. the first amendment wears all of them as it protects clarence brandenburg saying i want to see the jews back to israel and i want the blacks back to africa. the supreme court upheld that decision. president trump didn't incite people to come to the capitol. he invited the people, not incite, invite. he said come peacefully and protest. you wouldn't know if the you read 144 constitutional scholars issued a letter the other day threatening, threatening donald trump's lawyers saying if you dare, if you dare to even raise a first amendment argument, i'll read it to you, any first amendment defense raised by president trump's attorneys would be legally frivolous. that is a magic world, "legally frivolous." it mean unethical, unprofessional and you can be disciplined and disbarred. 1

well, chuck schumer was threatening two supreme court justices, joe biden threaten the president, kamala harris was bailing out rioters saying they shouldn't stop doing what they are doing, maxine waters wants to take the president out and kill him tonight. "we are going to take him out tonight -- isn't that a direct threat? sounds like a threat to me. >> it was a direct threat and the democrats forget about alcee hastings, appointed to he was impeached and he was convicted in the united states senate. but you know what? the people in florida decided to send him back to congress. the guy was convicted of bribery and the democrats put him on the rule committee of all things and yet you've got somebody who said something that i totally disagree with, before an election. but they know who makes that decision? the good people of georgia. not the opposing party, not the democrats. not somebody froma utah, arizo, or anywhere else. the people off georgia. that's where the respect needs to lay. >> sean: i think that's true. biggs, where does this go tomorrow, and more importantly, at what point

>>nancy pelosi's california chuck schumer's new york at the expense of states like tennessee biden's proposal of 350 billion dollars in additional direct aid is a nonstarter for republican senators bill haggerty and bill cassidy i've been an advocate for state and but that is absurd and that is wrong cassady wants to know why states like california whom he says will finish the year with a surplus are still on track to get billions all you can do is continue to point out facts and hope convince democrats want to pass biden's plan by the end of the month and are prepared to do it without republicans their budget reconciliation, a simple majority vote this will not be a bipartisan effort whatsoever in washington, i'm jessi tenure. >>on the kron 00:00am morning news, the battle over a black lives matter face mask, popular restaurant is now defending itself gets accusations from the former says the police were unfairly attacked we'll have that story coming up next. >>welcome back to the kron 4 morning news let's get another check of the weather with john trouble this morning. john hopeful

i didn't hear either one of them really go after kamala harris, chuck schumer, joe biden, nancy pelosi, or maxine waters either. not particularly happy with the double standard myself. >> well yeah, number one, senator mcconnell speaks saturday. i don't think is widely shared view of president trump by most republicans. but remember, you said you are a conservative. a democratic majority in the house and the senate with the democratic president is a nightmare for the pro-life movement, for the second amendment. we are going back to open borders and asylum-seekers and going to have a very weak foreign policy. president trump's statement today in response to what mcconnell said saturday is very predictable. i remind everybody, ronald reagan's 11th commandment was don't speak ill of fellow republicans. why did people like president trump so well cluster mark he was -- good president. he built up the military. he brought order to chaos at the border. he put iran in a box and built to .3 great justices on the court. but i want you to know this. mitch mcconnell is indispensable. he got the t

the big problem is you remember when the moon rushed chuck schumer, right? no, you didn't because it never happened. all the time that politicians use incendiary rhetoric, the core appeal to their supporters, as donald trump, and we have never in our history had an attack on the capitol by a president's or any politician's support injuries in this way. that's what's different. if you can't figure this out, you're not paying attention. >> that's why it's so compelling showing them, begging them, pleading with him in real time, make it stop. if this is all just fine as the president said, nothing to see here, i did nothing wrong, then why were members of his own party going on twitter? people in his former administration begging him, you were the only one who could make it stop. we were invited there by the president of the united states but we also heard from congressman chris christie going on television saying, make it stop. >> they are calling on him trying to reach the president who's ignoring them saying, please, tell them to stop. that is an acknowledgm

now to the leader of the democrats in the senate, chuck schumer.ce has not been done and the american people shouldn't forget what had happened when rioters stormed the us capitol. by not recognising the heinous crime that donald trump committed against the constitution, republican senators of not only risked but potentially invited republican senators have not only risked but potentially invited the same danger that was just visited upon us. so let me say this. despite the results of the vote on donald trump's conviction in the court of impeachment, he deserves to be convicted and i believe he will be convicted in the court of public opinion. he deserves to be permanently discredited and i believe he has been discredited in the eyes of the american people and in the judgement of history. donald trump has released a statement. he accused the democratic party of getting a free pass to denigrate the rule of law and suppress other viewpoints. he went on to say... also adding... and we've just received the first words on the acquital from president bid
