we saw the clip from tucker carlson and lieutenant governor dan patrick texas state rep jean wu respond to that saying if you asked my kids if they would rather have more stuff or have their grandson they would choose their grandpa grandparents with no hesitation that is so true and i think any american if you really or anyone else around the world if you really put it to him and said hey do you really want to save the economy or do you want to save your loved ones they're going to pick their loved ones but that's not what we're hearing on t.v. or when the mayor of san antonio to his credit had a had a very similar statement i think that this is very interesting because it shows this crisis of american ideals to a certain extent we as a culture have always taken major major losses when it comes to ensuring that the elders are safe ensuring that they are taken care of other nations actually have made fun of us for years for not for not protecting them for not doing what we need to do to make sure that they are they are going to be fine in their old age and right now we're seeing that tho

dan patrick joins us tonight. lieutenant governor, thank you so much for coming on.really interesting idea on this. the convention -- and i will set the stage and let you go -- but the conventional view in washington is if you want to win hispanic voters, you have to liberalize immigration laws. no other way. the only issue they care about. every hispanic is for open borders. republicans at the rnc believe it. what's your idea? >> first of all, tucker, i've nearly 50% along with greg abbott and in 2014 we ran for governor and lieutenant governor and we ran independently. got about 50% of the hispanic vote. the reason is we talked to hispanics about our policies, and this is why president trump will do so well. hispanic voters, the majority are pro-life. they are pro-family. they are pro-border security. they are pro-second amendment. they're entrepreneurs, hard workers, they want small government and they want to keep more of their money. they don't want to give it to the government. so you and i kind of talked a little bit before and i said i can go into a room of 1

is texasrey, this lieutenant governor dan patrick who rejects the idea of social distancing, urging a swift return to work saying older people who are much more vulnerable to the virus should sacrifice for the country's economy. patrick spoke monday on fox news with tucker carlsen. >> someone reached out to me and said, as a senior citizen, are you willing to take a chance on your survival in exchange for keeping the america that all america loves for your children and grandchildren? and if that is the exchange, i am all in. that doesn't make me noble or brave or anything like that. i just think there are lots of grandparents o out there in this country like tme. amy: death panels, right now that the republicans are suggesting come as goes texas, so because the nation. this is on fox. we know what trump watches and gets his advice from. you look at the panel yesterday at the news conferences as others are calling for only scientists to speak and doctors to speak to the country. --mp is increasingly just yesterday he was surrounded by william barr, it was vice president pence. dr. fauc

texas lieutenant governor dan patrick, thank you for being on tonight. breaking tonight, breaking details from the u.s. military response to yesterday's rocket attack in iraq that killed two americans one british citizen. correspondent will embittered is on the other story. >> it's now sunrise, shannon, in the middle east where they are looking for the damage here. u.s. air strikes began shortly after 1:00 a.m. local time, the u.s. warplanes targeting multiple bases used by iranian back shia militias in iraq, they hit a number of weapons depots as far as other targets near camp to seriously killing two americans and a british soldier. iraqi forces found this truck rigged with rocket launching tubes just a few miles from the base. the militias have launched about 30 rockets towards the base. >> i have spoken with the president, given the authority to do what we need to do. we will hold those persons accountable and i'm not taking any options off the table right now. >> u.s. military officials say it's designed to degrade the ability of these militias and

i will pass it over to lieutenant governor dan patrick. >> thank you governor. few weeks ago when we were in this room, i talked about 29 million texans being on the front line with our healthcare workers, first responders, folks that work in the grocery stores. you're on the front line, 29 million texans because you follow the governor's orders and these guidelines over the last several weeks per capita, if you look at the death rate in texas 29 million people are one of the lowest in the country. we need to continue that for the rest of april. even be better at that. we prayerfully and hopefully keep our numbers low. as the governor said, follow these guidelines, be smart in all your travels when you leave home. if you do not have to leave home, do not do so. this balance we have struck in texas has worked to date because 29 million texans have taken it to heart and we are standing and working together. please continue to do that. >> thank you. >> now, speaker. >> begin with a quote from winston churchill. it is not if you have to do our best. we have to do wh

joining me now is texas lieutenant governor dan patrick. what do you think about, i mean, the people who are still saying that drugs that are working right now, they don't work on everybody, especially super, super advanced people but they are working now, are still throwing cold water on therapies that seem like they could be really promising? >> well, laura, for people who are dying, orr in critical condition, and since we don't have a vaccine and since we don't have a cure, compassionate use is the go-to. try. and we pass laws like that in texas and the united states. i don't think should you throw cold water on something that's saved a life. i'm not a doctor or a scientist but i don't think we should just brush it aside, so i think the president is right to say, let's push this out to the best of our ability, and let's face it, some of our trials that we normally go through, a long process with the fda, are happening in real-time to people like jim in the hospital. o >> laura: lieutenant governor, the energy industry is hurting. the hos

governor dan patrick, who said that older americans may be willing to sacrifice their safety and healthorder for the economy to get back up and running. the former vice president said he doesn't agree and people all over the world are suffering, and the economy in the future will be able to bounce back as well as workers. biden also gave insight into how he's spending his days off the campaign trail. he's having what was-hour briefing with members of his public health advisory committees as well as his economic team about the impact of the coronavirus. but one challenge is breaking through all of this coronavirus news. you heard him be quite critical of president trump's responsible to the coronavirus, but biden also has been trying to get his own message across. on many of -- on several major tv markets on the east coast, his view -- his appearance on "the view" was preempted due to local news conferences about the coronavirus outbreak. so that is something that is a challenge for the biden campaign, getting his message out at this time. briana? >> arlette, thank you so much for that.

. >>> dan patrick is also raising eye brows after saying he's willing to risk his own health and owne by lifting social distancing rules. he turns 70 years old next week. seniors face a higher risk of severe illness. the texas republicans say grandparents like himself, a lot of them are willing to risk their lives to protect the economy. >> no one reached out to me and said as a senior citizen, are you willing to take a chance in our survival in exchange for keeping america for all that america loves for your children. if that's the exchange, i am all in. my message is that let's get back to work, let's get back to living and let's be smart about it and those of us who are 70 plus, we'll take care of ourselves, don't sacrifice the country. the mayor of san antonio texas. you have a stay-at-home for the 1.5 million people in your city to slow the spread of the virus. when you hear lieutenant governor saying things like that, what's your reaction? >> good to be with you john. it is easy for someone in power of privilege to say something so callo callous. a single health event can becom

dan patrick. >> chair of the texas campaign in texas and proud of it. shannon: let's talk preparedness. you have dealt with serious stuff in the past. how do you feel about the production of hospital beds? texas is a huge state. are you ready? >> texas is always ready, governor abbott and our team in texas are ahead of the curve and i want to say something about the president. we will never how -- know how many lives he will have saved by taking the action he took on china, taking action on the travel ban. what is important that people are overlooking is he put together a coalition of business leaders whether they own an nba team or concert venue or put on rodeo he was able to gather business leaders because he talked their language and his team and convinced them to do with italy to do it now other country has done and that is begin to shut down these big events so the virus cannot spread at peak to a point that will create the crisis you have been talking about. the whole point of shutting down every venue, there will not be a ballgame live on televis

so, if you saw the show last night, you saw that dan patrick came on. turning 70 this week and had a very specific, and for some, challenging perspective on what priorities are to be when it comes to the coronavirus. here's part of what he said. >> let's get back to work. let's get back to living. let's be smart about it. those of us who are 70 plus. we'll will take care of ourselves, but don't sacrifice the country. don't do that. >> tucker: so, you are basically saying that this disease could take your life, but that's not the scariest thing to you. there is something that would be worse than dying. >> yeah. look, i'm going to do everything i can to live, but if you said are you willing to take a chance, you know, if i get sick, i will go and try to get better, but if i don't, i don't. i'm not trying to think in any kind of morbid way, tucker. i'm just saying that we've got choice here. we are going to be in a total collapse, recession, depression, collapse in our society if this goes on another several months. there won't be any jobs to come back to

. >> texas lieutenant governor dan patrick, thank you for your time. rolling this out as we go, let's play it in real time. does that emergency declarationn change or help with anything you are doing? >> absolutely, it allows us to expand all of our state resources that are available to us which are significant wherere needed and when needed. break out in a particular area, we can move to that area.fi secondly, we are relaxing rules to expand telemedicine. we are very good at that in texas to begin with, but we want to enlarge that. we told the attorney general, prosecute anyone who is price gouging. we are restricting visitation to day care centers, to nursing homes, to hospitals, and two prisons. and we backed insurance companies to waive copays, so far i think most have come along and i think all will. >> bill: do you think you are ahead of it right now, or behind it right now? 39 cases in the state of texas, how would you gauge that at the moment? >> i think we are ahead of it. governor abbott and our entire emergency team have done an excellent jo

was from a lieutenant governor of texas, dan patrick who has been on the show before. he said something very long and thoughtful and i just want to share part of it here because it is worth hearing. "i don't pretend to be speaking for everyone 70 plus, i think there were lots of grandparents out there who would agree with me that i want my grandchildren to live in the america i did. i want them to have a shot at the american dream but right now there's a virus which all the experts say that 98% of all people will survive is killing our country in another way, it could bring about a total economic collapse and potentially collapse of our society. so i say let's give this a few more days or weeks but after that, let's go back to work and go back to living. those we want to shelter in place can still do so but we can't live with this uncertain uncertainty. >> tucker: lieutenant governor patrick agreed to join us tonight, we are happy that he did. thanks so much for coming on. so you made clear and i want you to say this and not me but you made clear in this letter that yo

in texas, "the dallas morning that lieutenant governor dan patrick are urging people to return to work and grandparents should sacrifice. in remarks he made monday. grandparents like himself at higher risk of ontracting severe risks of coronavirus should sacrifice to keep the country out of economic trouble. is message echoed remarks made by trump on monday who said he for for reopen the u.s. business in weeks, not months. result d closures could in more deaths than the pandemic itself. ou can read more at dallasnews.com. tonight we'll have a special live evening edition of "washington journal" with a look federal and state response to the coronavirus. you can join us with your questions and comments tonight 8:00 p.m. eastern. next, the governor of washington to fight the ts virus there. this is just over five minutes. governor inslee: good evening, washingtonians. i'd like to speak to you directly tonight about the covid-19 pandemic. this is a pandemic that our tens to overwhelm society without decisive action. more now confirmed that than 2,000 washingtonians have and there the virus

dan patrick gets this big platform over on fox to say, the seniors, they're going to have to make a judgmentg to go back to work. if i die i die. i'll do it for the sake of the economy. what do you make of that being put out there? it's not being put out there by accident. >> well, look, i -- that's disappointing. there's no two ways about it. we made this tim called "the unseen enemy," and that's what this virus is. you don't see it until all of a sudden it's all around you. there are a lot of people saying to themselves, i don't get it. not a big deal. the problem is that it is here, it is circulating and we're about two week or so lag period. things are going to change dramatically in and around the country. you don't want to be sort of getting ready to dole with this at that point. trust me. i've covered a lot of these types of pandemics. a at that point, it's too late. there's no way you could keep up. people don't like to deal with issues until it's slapping them in the face. i worry with this particular thing and what we're hearing from the lieutenant governor of texas, they're going

. >> texas lieutenant governor dan patrick, thank you for your ti time. rolling this out as we go, let's play it in real time. does that emergency declaration change or help with anything you are doing? >> absolutely, it allows us to expand all of our state resources that are available to us which are significant where needed and when needed. i break out in a particular area, we can move to that area. secondly, we are relaxing rules to expand telemedicine. we are very good at that in texas to begin with, but we want to enlarge that. we told the attorney general, prosecute anyone who is price gouging. we are restricting visitation to day care centers, to nursing homes, to hospitals, and two prisons. and we backed insurance companies to waive coboys, so far i think most have come along and i think all will. >> bill: do you think you are ahead of it right now, or behind it right now? 39 cases in the state of texas, how would you gauge that at the moment? >> i think we are ahead of it. governor abbott and our entire emergency team have done an excellent job o

then lieutenant governor dan patrick gets this big platform on fox to say the seniors have to make a judgment. i'm willing to go back to work. if i die, i die. i'll do it for the sake of the future of the economy for the next generation. what do you make of that being put out there? >> well, look, that's disappointing. i mean, there's no two ways about it. we made this film called the unseen enemy. and that's what this virus is. you don't see it until all of a sudden it's all around you. there are still a lot of people saying to themselves i don't get it. i don't know what the big deal is. i don't see anything. my life is the same. all i'm being asked to stay home. the problem is it is here and circulating and we're about two weeks or so lag period. within two weeks things are going to change dramatically in many places in the country. you don't want to be getting ready to deal with this at that point. i've covered a lot of these types of pandemics. at that point it's too late. there's no way you could possibly keep up. so, you know, it's true in medicine as it is in public health. p

but some in the gop like texas lieutenant governor dan patrick said some seniors may be willing to die to save the economy. >> no one reached out to me and said, as a senior citizen, are you willing to take a chance on your survival in exchange for keeping the america that all america loves for your children and grandchildren. and if that's the exchange, i'm all in. >> reporter: the president also weighed in on the battle over the stimulus deal on capitol hill, revealing he turned down an agreement overnight. >> i canceled the deal last night, i said i'm not going to sign that deal because nancy pelosi came in and put a lot of things into the deal that had nothing to do with workers. >> reporter: new york governor cuomo blasted the administration for failing to ship enough ventilators. >> fema said, we're sending 400 ventilators. really? what am i going to do with 400 ventilators when i need 30,000? >> reporter: the president fired back after hearing that. >> he shouldn't be talking about us. he's supposed to be buying his own ventilators. >> reporter: the white house is looking at a v

maybe lieutenant governor dan patrick said on fox just now, maybe let some old people die and that'she economy. i don't think, i am not sure that message will really sell but they're clearly trying to figure out how to move, how to start trying to persuade people to come out of quarantine. >> well, there's also, i mean as you note, there was also a gap between what the public message was about the seriousness and what the private actions taken by the murdoch family for instance and fox news were, which reflected that they did take it seriously, they did view it as quite serious and possibly dangerous. >> yes, the thing, i went into the story, what happened there, what is the disaster and how did it come about? and i went and first looked at the ceo of fox news, and she was as of late february, frantically ordering the cafeteria sanitized and stuff like that. she apparently had no control over the actual talent on the network talking about stuff. everything else was under control. the ceo of fox, rupert murdoch, not particularly engaged. and the thing that i just learned today, actual

this is texas lieutenant governor dan patrick with tucker carlson, basically saying let's do the trade-off. take a look. >> no one reached out to me and said, as a senior citizen, are you willing to take a chance on your survival in exchange for keeping the america that all america loves for your children and grandchildren. and if that's the exchange, i'm all in. i want to, you know, live smart and see through this. but i don't want the whole country to be sacrificed. >> your response? >> it's unethical and immoral. even to have that debate. and i want to be no part of it. and i think most americans would agree with me. >> finally, congresswoman, larry kudlow speaking today in that briefing said there's basically going to be a $6 trillion level package if you count all the lending authority plus give or take two "t" if you will in all the assistance, big, big numbers for a big, big challenge. can you give us any insight into that package, and is it close enough to what speaker pelosi and your team wanted? >> well, they're all talking about being in the red zone. but we don't really know. i

dan patrick suggested many seniors would be willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for america's economicl-being. >> no one reached out to me and said, as a senior citizen, are you willing to take a chance on your survival in exchange for keeping the america that all america loves for your children and grandchildren. and if that's the exchange, i'm all in. >> joining us now, chief medical adviser for the bipartisan policy center and former hhs deputy assistant secretary, annan perec, and the director of colombia university's national standard for disaster preparedness, dr. irwin redlener. annan, your reaction to this suggestion that seniors across america could be willing to sacrifice their own lives for our economy. >> well, i think, stephanie, in general, i don't think we should be setting arbitrary dates in terms of when we should end social distancing. we should allow the data and the science and the rate of new infections to dictate that. we also shouldn't be pitting senior citizens versus other americans. we are all in this together. this is a virus that can infect all americans. an

we heard it yesterday on fox news interviewing the lieutenant governor of texas, dan patrick, who actuallyome of the elderly will be willing to die and need to die to save the economy. if we are headed in that direction, the president needs more than ever before a supportive media outlet that can spill that nonsense out to us and we have got to keep demanding medical expertise and the truth. i'll tell you. a quick story of an old soviet defector. the fbi agent trying to help the defector acclimate to u.s. society and stopped in traffic for an hour. they see rescue lights flashing, a helicopter landing, the soviet defector turns to the agent saying, why are we sitting in traffic for an hour? what is this about? the fbi agent says, we are trying to save the life of someone who's been in an accident. and the defector says that would never happen in the soviet union to inconvenience thousands to save one life. but that's exactly what we may be asked to do and fox news is going to have to play a role in convincing us of that. >> you know, ben smith, frank makes such a great point and fiona hill

lieutenant governor of texas dan patrick made essentially that very argument on trump tv last night.ne reached out to me and said as a senior citizen, are you willing to take a chance on your survival in exchange for keeping the america that all-america loves for your children and grandchildren. and if that's the exchange, i'm all in. those of us who are 70-plus, we'll take care of ourselves but don't sacrifice the country. >> let's put aside for the moment that for one younger people are dying, too, one of the most upsetting parts of this disease. two, the economy is not going to magically get back to some semblance of normal if thousands of people are dying and if we don't control the virus. the place that i fear we may be going right now -- it is really sort of opened up in the last few days -- is one in which conservative institutions and conservative governors and pundits decide the idea of flattening the curve and sparing the hospital system is lefty propaganda. let's keep everything open, take a roll, see what happens. we had a concrete example of that with liberty university
