she's the daughter of trump media surrogate steve cortez.'s the pro-trump think tank founded by russ vought. that's trump's omb director and, of course, the mastermind of project 2025. after trump was inaugurated, wilson was sworn in as the deputy press secretary at the pentagon. now, that's a very public facing job. but as multiple outlets have reported this week, her record of public statements is, well, appalling. >> we've become much more democratic as our country's history has gone on. and i don't know that that's necessarily a good thing. and i think that it's kind of a rejection of what we were meant to be for zelensky to come to the capitol and to ask. for more money. i just think is, you know, horrific. it's truly despicable. he should be arrested on sight. i don't want to live in a country where people are eating cats. >> and what have i told you? that's like her pretty soft stuff. on social media. wilson has been a big promoter of some downright ghastly racist and anti-semitic conspiracy theories. back in 2023, the head of the ant

. >> from a few chris murphy, alexandria ocasio-cortez and a few others. we haven't seen it. the level of crisis in this country? the crisis is in the oval office has to come from the courts, from congress, from the people, and eventually at the ballot box. and it can't come too soon. >> timothy. yeah. go ahead. >> no, i just want to i wanted to echo david's point that there's something what's happening abroad. echoes what's. happening within. >> the in both. >> cases, you have this performance. >> of strength. >> and i would. >> kind of caution all of us against using the word strength too often because. >> the theatrical. >> self persuasive. >> performance of strength is not the same thing as power. it's not the. >> same thing as being able to get things done. >> so even as at. >> home we are dismantling the state. >> and we're reducing. >> our ability to do anything abroad. >> we're trading 80 years of trusting, effective. >> and enriching. >> alliances for a country. >> whose main way of engaging us. >> i speak of russia, of course, is to spy. >> on. >> us. >> is to. >> h

ocasio-cortez. and i believe it's paulina luna are working on a bill to cut the interest rates for credit cards down to 10%. now, that certainly everybody can agree that's a really good thing. so there's, there's i think there's probably more that we can agree on to help our economy, to help our national security, cost of living for americans than we disagree upon. >> yeah. and, joe, just finally, i want to ask you about the role elon musk is playing in this administration and how you would evaluate that. >> yeah, it's kind of hard to evaluate that at this point because it's still very early on in the administration. jessica, i think that, we do need to see ultimately, we need to take a longer view of what is happening. it does seem to be very haphazard. but i do think that some of what's being affected is necessary. but at the same time, again, it's just too soon, in my opinion, to do a formal like evaluation of somebody who a is is still very early on in the tenure and b really can only work a han

so let's talk about congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez, who points out that trump avoided mentioning the address and after promising to protect it, he endorsed a budget that will slash medicaid funding. and here's some of what aoc told her 9 million instagram followers. here it is. >> don't you find it interesting that he did. >> not mention. >> medicaid once? this is a massive political vulnerability. we're going to. >> take all. >> of this out of medicaid, and. then we're going to move it over here, give this much to billionaires. they are afraid of this. i'm telling you, if they weren't afraid of it, they would continue to be hosting their town halls. if they weren't afraid of it, trump would have said something. >> what's your assessment of aoc's response there? >> i think what she's laying out is what you're going to see. a lot of advertising built around in the in the midterms, right? it is this is going to be something that that that tests really well and, and upsets the average the average american right that you're, that you're taking away from from the from americans who've

here's how congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez, who boycotted the speech, summed it up. >> it's reallyse republicans. >> just they're very. >> thin skinned and they're very sensitive, and their feelings are very easily hurt. and so they have to vote on censure resolution. >> should your leadership, should your leadership encourage more of this kind of protest to show your the way you feel about trump? >> i think that the democratic coalition is really diverse, you know. and al green, i trust al green's, uh, discernment in representing his his own constituents. >> thank you so much for joining inside politics today. cnn news central starts after the break. >> when it comes to rooting. >> out corruption. >> do the. >> fbi's ends. >> justify the means? >> it was. >> humiliating. humiliating? it's an embarrassment for the country. >> the united. >> states. >> of scandal with jake tapper sunday at 9:00 on cnn. >> you'll be back. >> emus can't help people customize and save with liberty mutual. >> and doug. >> well, i'll be. >> only pay for what you need. liberty. >> liberty, liberty, libert

representative alexandria ocasio-cortez, she is not here tonight. you see the dress, in very stark terms, women dressed in very bright pink. that is something that donald trump will have to see, as he's giving this address to this chamber here tonight. and then we've spotted a number of democratic men sporting ties with yellow and blue in support of ukraine, and, of course, the ongoing controversy as it relates to ukraine. now, some of these members, they've been waiting here since as early at 3:00 this afternoon to get those spots along the aisle, those coveted spots where they will get face time with the president, be able to shake his hand on national television and also have the opportunity to get an autograph after he leaves, everything along those lines. you can see him showing their phones and talking to each other already about this experience that they have, and the prime position they've gotten here tonight. now, it's also interesting to point out, as we wonder, will democrats have any sort of vocal disapproval of this speech? will they he

cortez masto. mr. cotton. mr. cramer. mr. crapo. mr. cruz. mr. curtis. what we are seeing real-time to default on the veterans of america. it's an assault that is part of a campaign by elon musk who has been empowered by president trump totally to eliminate waste in our federal government. instead of eliminating waste elon musk is laying waste to the department of veterans affairs and it is unfolding in real time and with the real-life impact on our veterans. not only is he firing veterans at the va, many of the 2400 already terminated our veterans one third of them but across agencies in the united states government where 30,000 members of the federal workforce have been indiscriminately terminated , 30% of them are veterans as well turned almost 50% of everybody in the department of defense who has been fired, they are veterans and they may be probationary employees, promoted to a position where they are in that status because they done such a great job. they are being fired. younger members of the federal workforce who are there for up to two years fo

i've led legislation with senator cortez masto to modernize americans' 911 system to help enable 911 call centers to better handle text messages, pictures, videos, and modern communications. dr. baylis, can you give an example of an innovation at your lab that could help make our 911 system stronger and more resilient? mr. baylis: so i think this depends on what types of interference or the 911 systems are receiving, but an innovation that we're finding in our lab that could really be helpful -- well, there's two of them. one is we've got reconfigurable circuitry that can reconfigure within under a millisecond. and that would allow us to actually change frequencies and then optimize our performance at a new frequency. what happens is your circuit's designed to operate the old frequency, and so if you change frequencies, you may not -- you may drain your battery because you don't have any efficiency. you may not get the transmit power you need. so that's an example of one thing we're doing, is reconfigurable circuitry. and then i think that the dynamic spectrum management system innov
