so, that's why i'm proud to be leading the new democrat coalition.ill get the job done, and work with reasonable republicans to move our country forward. >> what do you make of the possible ethics violations for members of congress? is that an appropriate recommendation for the failure to comply with subpoenas? >> absolutely, you know, as members of congress, we take an oath to abide by the law. the subpoenas were lawful. they were instructing members of congress to provide documents and testimony. they were ignored. and i think it's a perfectly appropriate for our ethics committee. >> i want to get your take on this current strain of the gop. you heard my take on it. in my view, the mega strain, for example, has become dominant. and it seems the only way that's going to change is if republicans keep losing for a while. what are your thoughts on that? >> well, that's what we saw here in new hampshire. we had a resoundingly successful election, to how seats, i won by 12 points. chris pappas by eight points, maggie hassan for u.s. senate, by ten points

she's chair of the new democrat coalition.eat to see you. >> great to be with you, michael. thank you for having me. >> i want to get your reaction to the breaking news on the january six committee, what do you make of the recommended charges that they're proposing against donald trump, and do you see an impact from all of this? >> well, first i want to say that i was a victim, a witness, and our survivor of the january 6th insurrection. i was in the gallery in the house of representatives and one of the last to be evacuated. i'm so grateful to our colleagues for everything that they do, hours an hours, of painstaking work, thousands of depositions, getting to the bottom of this case, and now they're ready to make the referrals. i think the american people will respond, certainly the hearings that they had last july had a big impact on the results of the election in november. the voters rejected republican extremism, and what they're looking for as more of a mainstream approach. so, that's why i'm proud to be leading the new d

want to see government work again and that's the approach i took when i was chair of the new democrat coalition and we were focused of getting legislation over the finish line. and that's the model that democrats can win on. we continue to make frog progress and to do so and get critical legislation passed into law, legislation is key to making that happen. we knew going into this we were facing strong historical headwinds. democrats held back this republican red wave . this means democrats will have an unworkable majority. but puts democrats in working in a strong position to go take back the gavel in 2024. thanks to the work of members and some folks across the county and leadership of sean patrick maloney who focused on delivering for families and communities. and that is in sharp contrast what republicans which is grievancees from the 2020 and extreme rhetoric. there has been air danger to our democracy and despite to a stronger start, we will hold the speaker's gavel. i look to get us there. it is a team effort. i believe strongly in making sure we build strong teams. this is a team effort

be confusing to some of our viewers because you have f, f, c central council and f, f, c, democratic coalition. so, you know, i just want to flag that, that distinction. but for those groups that are not signatories to the agreement right now, what happens is if they cannot be brought on board, does the process continue towards picking a prime minister and choosing a government moving towards elections even without them? well, the agreement is vague on that in theory, one of the leverage points to try to get these groups be brought on board is that they will be excluded from the future government if they are not brought on board. obviously, there are risks though not to bring them on. the job piece agreement was signed with a number of other groups in 2020 and these are groups that have not been brought on board. and so in theory though, if they're not brought on board they, there are fear that they could play a spoiler role as well. so there's, you know, there's a bit of a standoff and brinkmann ship going on here. there's also a question of, if the military will actually allow this to be imp

trying to get voters back out to rebuild this democratic coalition that is still taking shape in georgia. yamiche: we have to remind people how much it took to win georgia. before we turn to all of the legal challenges. brey griner is home. she is someone who i know so many people were hoping would come home. >> the white house was very careful as they announced that brittney griner would be returning home. to show they were aware of the optics. they were trying. ultimately the russians were not allowing him to come home. they said when they ultimately decided to bring her home and enter io negotiations with another country, they were very aware of all the consequences that could come with that. despite all the consequences and different things and ramifications. the family agreed with that. yamiche: that is a story we will continue to follow. thank you for joining us. this has been a tough week for donald trump. his real estate company was found guilty of tax fraud. that evening, a democratic chair of the generally six committees that the committee is considering criminal referrals. tru

conversation possible i will interview the washington state democrat also chair of the new democrat coalition and internet of things is creative have for this conversation today afterwards i will be joined by the advisory board member for a fireside chat just a reminder on all social media platforms we encourage you to share about today's event what's been representative to the virtual stage. >> great to be here. >> before we get into all things technology we want to start with a few news of the day questions from the midterms and elections. with that democratic leadership d can you talk about how important it is to happen now thatha democrats are in a minority and throughoutas the tenure in congress quick. >> long before my tenure a historic figure and has done an incredible job leading not only thehe democratic caucus but as a leader for our country this is a big change but we have incredible leaders throughout the caucus and an opportunity for us to see people participate in ways they have not before and that will be healthy for the organization. >> we are talking about jeffries the democr

and near 10% increases and latina vote and the -- we're seeing the democratic coalition turned out that early vote, because time and again, herschel walker has shown that he is not fit to hold office. he hasn't been truthful about anything. it's not that he couldn't tell us the correct number of children he has. he said he was a valedictorian of his college. he didn't even graduate. he said he owned the largest minority-owned business in the country. it has six employees. this is not a man who can tell the truth. if he lies this much on the campaign, imagine the damage he can do in the united states senate. meanwhile -- time again, georgia has delivered not just for the state, but for the country. for the american rescue plan to the inflation reduction act, to the bipartisan movement on gun safety laws, the bipartisan infrastructure package, and the bipartisan admission of sweden and finland to nato. that was all possible because of the two wins we had in january 2021 in the senate runoff. we've been here before, we know how it works, and once again, we're gonna deliver for the state an

years and that is from where tunisia worked very hard to come together the first democratic constitution and he led the coalition of the first of its kind in the arab world that was a novel idea to have secular parties and now working together with the democratic foundation then was part of the coalition and really it was in terms of achieving that aspiration of the inspiration of the tunisian people. bad of course after that, things started to deteriorate and economically speaking the economy did not take off. there is no significant improvement in the economy and then the pandemic and 2019 and that was on the tunisian democracy and economy and that's when it happened july 25, 2021 and outside need took the opportunity to destroy the democratic coalition and he claimed in the beginning it was just corrective measures and it would reopen in a month or two but we know that was a lie and then the majority of the members of parliament to be pursued because they met last march virtually undeclared to be unconstitutional and therefore illegal and unlawful so everyone who attended the meeting online was accused of tre

you have ffc central counsel and ffc democratic coalition. those groups that are not signatories to the agreements right now, what happens if they cannot be brought on board? does the process continue toward taking a prime minister and choosing a government, moving toward elections even without them? >> the agreement is vague on that. in theory one of the leverage points to try to get these groups to be brought on board is they will be excluded from the future government if they are not. obviously there are risks not to bring them on. the peace agreement was signed with a number of armed groups in 2020 and these are groups that have not been brought on board and in theory if they are not brought on board there are theories they could play spoiler role as well. there is a standoff and breaking ship going on here. there is a question if military will allow them to be implemented if others are not brought on board. the agreement does have ambiguity and it is not clear and will be open to a lot of politicking. >> why do you think the military cha

and then you have the forces of freedom and change democratic coalition. now those are a political parties that have called for the military to take over power in the 1st place and dissolve the previous transitional government. they have described this deal as being exclusive and that it does not include many political parties and many other sides. a car has exploded in a city in northern syria. one person was injured. it comes as tension grows on the border with turkey, which has been targeting to tuck kurdish fighters. it blaine for an attack in his sample. last month. a meeting of the top 6 members of south africa gardening party is underway present sir, i'm a poor. so like a short time ago, african national congress leaders are discussing his political future and independent van, or found rama poster may have violated his oath of office. socks in asia have raised in following the relaxation of chinese strict over 19 walls. the more suggest aging is taking a more pragmatic approach to the virus after why spread anti locked on protests? those are the hea

you also have the other forces of freedom and change coalition, the democratic coalition, which has rejected this deal from the get go describing it as an exclusion of other political parties. saying that it does not meet desperation of the political, a spectrum of sudan as well as the people of sudan. and then there the protesters on the streets while this agreement was being signed on monday afternoon. thousands of people were on the streets, protesting against the agreement, and those protests were organized by the resistance committees, committees that are based on districts around the capital homeroom, as well as other states. all of them saying that they have been demanding the political parties not negotiate. with the military and rather have the military return to the barracks and have appeared civilian government while the agreement papers way for that resistance committee. say that the fact that there will be in some sorts of ways involved in the transitional period. and that there were negotiations in the 1st place, that is something they reject. so they are 2 sides here. the poli

that is the approach i took as i was chair of this congress, the new democrat coalition and we really focused on getting the legislation of the finish line. we do not know we don't help anyone till we don't help anyone till get things done. that is the model that democrats can win on. we continue to make progress and help our communities, but to do so and get critical legislation passed into law -- we know a majority is a key to make that happen. we knew going into this election cycle that we were facing strong historical headwinds. in the end democrats help back this red wave. this means republicans will have an unworkable majority. we are seeing that. it puts democrats in striking difference and a strong position to take back the gavel in 2020 four. that is thanks to the work of so many. thanks to the work of members and folks across the country. including next to the leadership of maloney who focused us on greenberg for delivering for our communities and that's very much in sharp contrast to what republicans have been focused on which has been raven's is from a 2020 election and ex

change the paradigm of its values ​​because the social democrats are the party in power of the democratic coalitionsany. she has always advocated more for such anti-military sentiments, i.e. yes, the supply of weapons did not take place, therefore, in my opinion, this is quite such a key indicator when both the politicians of germany and the citizens showed that although it is possible that we would like it sooner , they still showed their readiness and understanding of the specific situation that it is necessary to stand together against the aggressor state of russia and the ukrainians are doing it as much as possible because of this. an important component and what is more important is our activity on the foreign policy fronts, that is, without this, without constant meetings, without sometimes disappointment, maybe not in the public sphere, but when we directly asked many countries to give us weapons already today, and political support is important to us, but it must be concrete at first, maybe not all countries were included, that is, they waited more , it was in the expected position. and what

and then you have the forces of freedom in change, democratic coalition. now those are political parties that have called for the military to take over power in the 1st place and resolve. the previous transitional government been described does deal as being exclusive, and that it does not include many political parties and many other sides. then you have the resistance committees, these are neighborhood committees around the country who have been organizing protest since the military took over power and have been calling on political parties not to negotiate. so they've described this agreement as something against what they've been demanding. but here in this hallway, the signing will take place. you have the uh, political group of the force of freedom and change coalition would say that this will allow for further negotiations between them. and those were rejecting the deal to pave way for a complete civilian rule. and so how likely is it that this agreement will be implemented, given that, that the previous one wasn't really respected? well, this is so

the democratic coalition, which has rejected this deal from the get go describing it as an exclusion of other political parties. a car has exploded in northern syria, injuring one person. it comes as tension grows on the border with turkey here, which has been targeting kurdish fighters. turkey blamed them for an attack in istanbul last month. top officials from south africa's governing party discussing the political future of embattled president, cyril rams. plaza is under fire after report found he may have violated his oath of office. a price cap on russian oil has come into effect to g 7 nations. the european union and estrella have set the price at $60.00 a barrel for russian crude shipped by sea. the cap is designed to limit moscow's ability to fund its war in ukraine. russia has rejected the cap. hundreds of protest as have stormed mongolian government palace. they are angry about the alleged theft of a $12000000000.00 co ship into china. they're also demanding an end to corruption. all right, those are the headlines. i'm emily anguish. the news continues here on al jazeera. a

coalition. neither party has perfected that. if democratsve of building a coalition, or mo voters can see themselves in the party, watch out! now it won't be a close election. what about for republicans? i am amazed tonight, stephanie, that's after a few weeks of antisemitism, a white supremacy, of saying that we are worth a shred the constitution, and now being reminded that donald trump cannot pick candidates -- that we have not seen the person who says -- i'm going to take republicans to the next level. where is timid ron desantis tonight? where is make mike pence tonight? what is shy mike pompeo tonight? because they are not looking to lead the party tonight to the next up, because now is the time! we're coming up a conversation of white supremacy and hate, antisemitism, and terrible candidates like herschel walker, and desantis, pence, they're not able to out-and say that we are done with this guy? but it tells me that they just waited for donald trump to die. and -- and -- think about this. [laughter] nobody's actually ready to say tha

>> unlike the republicans trying to herd cats together , biden he's got a democratic coalition. >> that's frank there in new york, one of those people a former you could describe him was the former white house press secretary harry fleischer who served under the george w. bush administration under fox news reacting to speakergingrich's comments as he read them, here is a portion of that . >> republican politics you always need to pay attention to the other side and it's always a healthy question to say what are they doing right , why did they have so many people ruin it for them, how do we stop that self healthy respect for what the other side doing and able to accomplish always makes sense but frankly the biggest and the democrats have is not studio lighting, it's thanks to the remarkable party discipline, a party that had a 50-50 senate and previously had a fivefold majority inthe house . they have been sticking together by the republicans have been falling apart in congress. that's the real lesson to be learned . >> it's the title of this op-ed warning republicans to stop underestimati

[laughter] nobody's actually ready to say that now is the time to t

which means there is a very slim margin for this democratic coalition, which performed very well in georgia. and i would say georgia is a purple state now. that is a positive. but i don't think that they should celebrate too much with this win in georgia and think that it's going to carry over into 2024. they beat a bad candidate, but it's not anything to celebrate big picture. >> all right, mo'kelly, mike madrid, thank you both for staying up with us and joining us tonight. we appreciate your insights. >>> democrats celebrating their true majority now that georgia has delivered that 51st seat. i'll be back with our panel, right after a quick break. and it's easier than ever to■ get your projects done right. inside, outside, big or small, angi helps you find the right so fowhatever you need done. with angi, you can connect with and see ratings and views. just search or scrl to see upf on hundreds of projects. and when you book and pay throug you're covered by our happiness it's easy to make your home an a check out angi.com today. angi... and done. meet leon the third... leon the second...

i think what democrats have learned in this is we saw the emergence of a new coalition in '18. crats, disaffected republicans and independents swung hard towards democrats and said we don't want donald trump. that same coalition was available in '20. biden wins, democrats hold the house. in '22, there was no red wave. that coalition is there. what you heard from schumer this morning is maybe we should be reaching out and grabbing that coalition. democrats have an opportunity to solidify a new coalition that wasn't available to them in the past. this makes the republicans' road, the return to power much more quickly. >> do you think donald trump's announcing another run for presidency was too early? >> i think he had to stop the emergence of ron desantis and this leads to the question about desantis, pence, pompeo and others. now is the time for a leader to emerge and say i'm taking the party past trump. we're coming off a month of anti-semitism, white supremacy and big national losses under donald trump's hand-picked candidates. if someone could get past trump, now is the time.

just last week, members of the new democrat coalition renewed calls to grant pathways to citizenshipa recipients before the end of this year. with me now, texas congressman joaquin castro, who has pushed congress to make daca permanent. he's on the house foreign affairs committee and -- congressman, first, before we talk about legislative pathways, we have to talk about the stakes. what happens if nothing gets done in these next four weeks? >> well, millions of people, if a court ruling comes down that's adverse to dreamers, daca recipients, and millions of people could be subject to deportation. and so, ultimately, that's what's at stake. and given the makeup of the federal courts right now, particularly the supreme court, there's a lot of fear within congress and among daca recipients and advocates and ultimately, daca could be undone by the courts, and we would be in a situation men where all these folks could ultimately be subject to deportation. >> understanding the stakes, and then standing how high they are, what can get across the finish line? >> we have the ability, if congr

. >> cornell, the democratic -- victorious democratic coalition of the last i would say 18, 20, 22, three cycles in a row, donald trump played a huge part in it. if donald trump is not there, how concerned are you about carrying places like an arizona and georgia? >> well, i think part of the problem is that if donald trump isn't there, look. look at the base of the republican party and who is choosing these nominees. herschel walker is such a terrible candidate. the republican primary voters picked him. go out to arizona where you think you had these terrible trump candidates. the republican primary voters chose them. so even if trump doesn't go away i still like the odds that they're going to continue to pick these trump-like individuals. >> showing up and doing events for them is a big part of this. >> they're also carrying his water. look, masters and this sort of anti-semitism, racist, you know, replacement theory crap that you get from donald trump, you're getting from an awful lot of these republican candidates. you are >> i do think what makes this moment feel a little bit differe

you also have the other forces of freedom and change coalition, the democratic coalition, which has rejected this deal from the get go describing it as an exclusion of other political parties. saying that it does not meet this creation of the political, a spectrum of sudan as well as the people of sudan. and then they're the protesters on the streets while this agreement has been signed on monday afternoon. thousands of people were on the streets, protesting against the agreement, and those protests were organized by the resistance committees, committees that are based on districts around the capital hot soon as well as other states. all of them saying that they have been demanding the political parties not negotiate with the military and rather have the military return to the barracks and have appear civilian government while the agreement paves way for that resistance committee say that the fact that there will be in some sorts of ways involved in the transitional period, and that there were negotiations in the 1st place, that is something they reject. so they are 2 sides here. the politic

realtime as a grievance and especially considering the fact that such a large portion of the democratic coalitionblack and you are hearing candidates say they want greater reflection in the states with early voting and that's why we're seeing the states who want to represent the midwest if iowa goes out of the top four, michigan chief among them and minnesota notice mix. the reporting, according to new reporting, if you look at what the state legislature is doing in michigan, they are trying to move the calendar already, and we'll get to that and where michigan would fall if this change actually becomes official, but the other state that is not just trying to stay in the cour four is move up in the lineup is nevada and a statement, especially in iowa, because of how long it took in 2022, is this the state that democrats want to go first, iowans being very touchy about this, this is near and dear to the hearts of so many voters in the early states. but it also puts us in the perspective of this is where we're talking in the past. this is happening so far in advance, but really, we're looking into

roosevelt's democratic grand coalition was formed in the thirty-second year, and the trade unions wered then they were strong liberal intelligentsia of the national minority. well, first of all, the irish and italians and the crimeans voted for them in the south, and the southern racist voted for the democrats, because they could not vote for the republicans, because linkin was a republican, respectively, uh, for the republicans there were farmers, the petty bourgeoisie. this coalition lasted practically, so almost until the end of the 20th century, and about 10 years ago. i am published an article that in the year 2008 a minority will begin to determine victory in the elections, but due to specific events around trump in the 20th year. this happened already in the twentieth year. well, first of all, it was men who voted for trump. ah, trump is voted for by the married and the married, and he loses a little on college graduates in general and especially uh, but then it turns out that uh, he only loses three points with whites, and he starts uh, losing more and more national minorities,

republican party is a party trying to go backwards, but today's democratic party is a party we can see ourselves in. that is the coalitionthat is the lesson they can take into 24 despite the challenging map in front of them. >> you know, i am out of time but dog, i have to ask this when david went, talking about back in the past, how do you as someone who was involved in justice, how do you look at former president trump talking about suspending the constitution and re-installing him as president? >> i got no words for that ralph, i mean, that is just something beyond the pale. it should be a disqualifier for him. it also, i think should be evidence of what his attempt was in january six, he is basically losing at this point, he has lost his support, he is being criticize around the republican party, his -- and he is a desperate attempt, when politicians that have a kind of following like donald trump has gets this desperate, better hang on because we have got to cool this thing out quickly or else it could get really out of hand in the next couple of years. >> all right, well david, you say he is losing some of this fro

, a coalition member, it is also more pro-ukrainian than this shultsiv policy, and plus there are christian democrats rear, which are the opposition, which are also. well, they are not silent. in this way, there will be a shift. this soup is bad because it is slow. everything that is not what is being done against russia now is what is being postponed, where it is possible to accumulate all its forces and become stronger. and we should not have illusions about the capabilities of this state, especially since it has a totalitarian regime that allows any pseudo-economic the decision to be made with just one exclamation, even the position has been said somewhere for a long time, and the peskovs are saying that the word of vladimir volodymyrovych is enough, there is no need to indicate any law, that is, the tsar's word is a terrible situation, the more words are played with it will be more difficult for western europeans in ukraine to push the enemy out of our territory ana andrii and how is the position of china changing in relation to the ukrainian russian-ukrainian war on the one hand after a certain

the trend line for younger voters may be an early indicator of the democrats' challenge to maintain coalition of black people, women, college educated voters, city dwellers and suburbanites. republicans have struggled to win over younger voters in recent elections. in 2024 the gop may try to put forth a younger candidate to contrast a president in his 80s. nearly 60% of registered voters not enthused with a trump 2024 campaign. a lot can happen between now and next year. >> bill: nice to see you, mark meredith in d.c. >> dana: the national archives warning the white house it could soon release hundreds of emails related to hunter biden and burisma. they paid hunter millions of dollars. it dates wack to 2014 when president biden was serving as vice president. the biden administration will not say if it will use executive privilege to block it. it comes as new fox polls say voters say it is important for the justice department to investigate hunter and his foreign business dealings including majorities from all parties. kim strassel is a member of the "wall street journal" editorial board. reac

the republican party had once been a coalition of conservatives and moderates and liberals and the democratic party had once been a coalition of conservatives and moderates and liberals in many ways. you think of the american party in the mid-to-late 20th century is really a four party system with conservative, too moderate. democrats and liberal democrats alongside conservative and liberal to moderate republicans. but as politics became nationalized and as the parties geographically the moderate to liberal republicans went extinct and the moderate to conservative democrats started to go extinct because the parties really these cultural issues that really elevated these very different identities, geographic allegiances. you could think of politics as essentially being in an earlier era and then flattening out into one dimensional us versus them, because the problem as the parties have separated and sorted out is that more and americans have found themselves surrounded by people are like them, which, you know, in some is comforting to many people to be around who are like them. but it also mea

. -- has got his democratic coalition pretty tight. host: ok. here's a portion of that. [video clip] >> you always need to pay attention to the other side. it is a healthy question to say, what are they doing right? what do they have some of the things that are going right for them? frankly, it is thanks to a remarkable party that has a 50-50 senate and previously had a5-0 regarding in the house. they have been sticking together. that is the real lesson to be learned. >> the title of this bed, morning republicans to stop underestimating joe biden. at this age in the game, do you think it is possible to change people's minds, convince people that he is not incompetent? >> i say one of the lessons of the midterm elections is to pay more attention to independence. clearly, we are willing to cut joe biden a break and fear republicans. that is the group that republicans have to remember to talk to. there just aren't enough people in the base and democrats to win. you need to base plus. this is where i do think biden, as 82-year-old is really bondable to losing more independen

declamation and thanks to our armed forces, this is the first moment, the second moment is that a coalition of democratic countries was formed in support of ukraine, which enables our country to stand up in the fight against russian aggression, and the third point is that ukraine is becoming a leader in central and eastern europe, and in fact we see that the historical role and place of kyiv is returning, which he played in the past, mr. ruslane. but at the same time, for the next year, the president gave many tasks to ukrainian diplomacy , including the minister of foreign affairs, at the already annual traditional meeting at the end of the year. this is how it happened. last week in kyiv, with the sound of sirens it is to see what the main tasks are. you saw the main tasks even for ukrainian diplomacy, because it is obvious that february is the un peace summit. this is what the minister of foreign affairs kuleba himself said, for sure there will be preparations for it. then this is a closer task, as i see in the near future, in fact, there are a lot of tasks, but the key point is that ukraine must figh

democratic texas congressman henry cuellar is one of those in the coalition.represents a border district and signed onto that letter. cuellar is a long-time critic on biden on the issue of illegal immigration. >> who is listening to the men and women in green and blue and the border communities? i've talked to the mayors, landowners, other folks there and nobody is listening -- the administration is not listening to them. it is about time that they pay attention to border communities. >> harris: senator ron johnson, republican of wisconsin serving on the senate homeland security and foreign relations committees. it is so good to have you in "focus" today, senator. you know exactly the national security problem that will happen and burst in six days. >> harris, yes. let's face it. there are millions of people who want to come to this country. it has to be a controlled process. a number of months ago i did a calculation with what information we had and figured there are 3 million people either encountered, processed and disbursed or come to this country as a kno
