democrats in congress and state government, along with the biden administration who are wildly out of debt with the values of the american people. less than 10% of voters support the position of today's radical democratic party, that there should be low -- no limits on abortion. given this consensus we have a historic opportunity to turn attention to enacting a federal law that protects an unborn child when he or she can feel pain. this is why i have been a proud sponsor of the pain capable bill since i was first sworn into office. i strongly support robust pro-life writers remaining intact, protecting the entire family of amendments in our appropriations process, we should also turn our attention to a permanent solution and ensure taxpayer dollars never support abortion. at the same time, standing for life goes beyond the birth of a child. the life movement deeply understands we must support and lift up mothers and families. it is why the life movement must continue to advocate for the value and dignity of all americans throughout their lives and we can do that by focusing on the nee

would have offered and probably been able to pass at least many of them through his heavily democratic congresses in those days and through this and perhaps through the states as well. he'd never offered them as formal constitutional amendments and that i think is very revealing because it shows in a way that if you have the living constitution, you don't need to go through the the complexities of the formal amendment process the idea. is that the real and increasingly relevant constitution is a very flexible one and unwritten one one that can change as circumstances change and you don't need formal amendments to an informal constitution, which is the real distribution of political power at any given time in american politics. so whereas the founders thought the constitution had to be above normal politics had to float above statute law in order to keep politics within certain moral and constitutional boundaries. the new understanding really is that it's not government that sets. it's not the constitution that sets the limits on government. it's in a way government that sets the parameters of the

>> well, i frankly think president biden and the democratic congress has a remarkable record to run on from what we accomplished in the last year. president biden's first term, he signed into law some amazing pieces of legislation, biggest investment in mental health in a generation, strengthening gun background check, investing in infrastructure, bringing advanced manufacturing back to this country through the bipartisan c.h.i.p.s. and science bill, reducing prescription drug prices, there is so much for a democrat facing election in 2024 to run on that some of the provisions you just referenced in this deal i don't think will be an issue at all. >> one of the things that is still being discussed is defense funding. do you think that the senate majority leader, chuck schumer, should commit to passing more defense funding after this bill gets passed in order to address those concerns about and insufficient, some believe, pentagon budget? >> well, we are about to see a counteroffensive begin in ukraine, and our president has been forceful and strong in his support of ukraine, so too hav

as far as the republicans or the democrats and congress, everybody wants to pat themselves on the back. i don't really pat them on the back because all they did was they did their job nobody really pats me on the back at work when i go to work and do my job. that's what i'm paid to do. that's all congress did this time. they just did their job. it was people behind the scenes, look out important the extra five days was. host: we got your point, on janet yellen and the folks behind the scenes? guest: i don't know how they found the additional five days but they'd did. if they hadn't, it probably changes the timeline. a journalist has a deadline you very rarely file before your deadline. it's the same thing with congressional negotiators and white house negotiators in a situation like this. it's important to underline that we would not have instantly defaulted if we past the deadline. other spending would have been constrained or not going out the door to do the payments we absolutely had to make. it wouldn't have been his fault. it's not as though if the deadline were midnight, minute p

[ laughter ] in fact, as we speak, trump is waging war on congress instructing aides to defy subpoenas and refusing to turn over his tax returns or financial records. even though trump keeps claiming, as he did in his abc interview on sunday, that he wants some unspecified financial statement to be made public. or rather, he tried to make that claim but was interrupted by a staffer in the room. >> at some point i hope they get it

you are formal democratic congress woman from new york.w you pictures, you can see them in the bottom right corner. this is president biden in pennsylvania, i believe he is going to be getting into a helicopter. you can see the big tall guy in the picture right in front of you, that is of course pennsylvania senator -- pretty much guaranteed he's the tallest guy in any picture. i think they're getting into a helicopter. i don't know how they're doing. you obviously can't drive to that i-95, that is not only been destroyed, but demolished because there is so much damage from the fuel tanker that caught fire underneath it. i believe the president might be getting into a helicopter to over fly the damage. but of course, this is going to be, now we're told, months, and months and months of work. that highway is completely closed in both directions. there's a hole there that they are going to be rebuilding a portion -- one of the busiest highways in the import entire united states. we'll be back for that. ack for that without fingersticks. mana

better yet, congress averted default while also preserving the important investments we made through investing in the bipartisan chips act and the landmark inflation reduction act. now democrats are getting the word out on our agenda and for months i worked with the administration and my colleagues to plan out implementation. it's one thing for americans to read about congress passing this bill or that bill. it's a whole different ballgame for them to see these investments come to the right through the construction projects, new factory ocean, new job announcements. implementing our agenda is not abstract. it is happening across the country as we speak. it's happening across the country as we speak. it means jobs, jobs, jobs as well as real help for so many different communities, suburban, urban, rural, across the country. to that end, the biden administration announced today they'll hit the road very soon for their phase two of investing in america tour. it'll be a great chance for americans to hear directly from the administration in their own backyards and for the administration to tout the new projects sprouting across the country. today the white house also's a nnounced

what you get in the end is you get a day or hours away from this default, and republicans in congress, can democrats to throw up their hands and say we're out of time, we have to avoid the default. let's just raise the debt ceiling in a clean bill, which is what president biden wanted all along. paul: so, kim, the defense budget here, the defense reduction -- it's not a reduction, it's 3%, 3.5% increase in defense, much more than domestic discretionary, but that sill is not an increase if you think about inflation. so after inflation, it's a cut. and that's's what really has caused some of the defense hawks in the senate, tom cotton and others, to say the reason why they opposed this. is there any way here that the republican congress can pad up defense in the next couple years? >> well, that wases the agreement they demanded from chuck schumer in order to to allow this to go ahead more quickly in the senate. they got can him to agree behind the scenes, i think he's making a public statement about how they are going to get all 12 of the appropriations bills done this year. he's also apparently going

democrats and republicans. how has it become so politcised? republicans know that they only have one chamber of congress. crats also control the senate. they note that this is something that must pass. and that is the thing that they are going to hold hostage in some ways. in order to get biden to negotiate on spending cuts, in order to get democrats to agree to some of the items they want because, you know, there really isn't otherwise legislation that must pass legislation that will move through both chambers. that's why you sigh republicans, aside from that debt limit do a lot of congressional oversight, investigations, that is the other way that they are sort of able to make a statement, because things can pass the house if it is, you know, a republican wish list. but it will not pass the senate. so thatis will not pass the senate. so that is why, you know, democrats and republicans have turned to one of the few must pass bills. turned to one of the few must pass bills-— pass bills. let's talk a little more about _ pass bills. let's talk a little more about what _ pass bills. let's talk a little more

they're concerned about democratic congress. that will not pass ban on congressional stock trading. and so i think we have to really invest in delivering for people and rebuilding trust in government and we have real work to do as democrats and that's because i share the values of the democratic party that i want to see us grow that party to be able to reach out to younger voters. so, you know, i said jokingly at an event the other day to one of my democratic colleagues, i said, you know, what do you think about the democratic platform on housing? and he laughed and he said, yeah, we don't have one. so this is the number one issue that people care about right now, not just in california, but actually across country. so we do have work to as a party. i think we have a great job of motivating, engaging young to turn out because things of donald trump abortion being on the ballot, lgbtq rights, trans rights being under attacked. but we have to keep those folks trusting that democrats will fight for them. mm hmm. has it been different with pelosi handing off the baton to hakeem? yeah, i

by democrats, but by members of the american media and the white house press corps and by democrats in congress. and sometimes the blows were glancing, sometimes they missed entirely, but the man was impeached twice. and even that wasn't a knock out block. yeah. which i wanted to ask you about. in fact, at the, at the moment right now and how long ruble is trump, he's is now facing a, as we all know, potential indictments for our, for, with holes in classified documents. i think that looked the classified documents story has blown up and i expect the trump is going to be indicted. but i think that the 2 and he may even be convicted. but the defense that they're going to mount is going to be how, what i do a, how is that different from like brock obama did. we're george bush, when he got the george bush or joe biden, after he was vice president for 8 years. all of them had classified documents in their possession. and how is it different from what you have a requesting did when she was secretary of state? you know, trump can argue as the per as you guys, as the president, i can be glad supply an
