the republican party supports the constitution in its entirety. and my values and my principles and the things that i believe in are no longer in the democratic party. the democratic party used to not be that way when i started, but now they are against freedom of speech. you're hearing about censorship. they support censorship. they support socialism. i cannot embrace and support that. i identify more with the principles and the values of the republican party. not that the republican party's perfect, not that i wouldn't have some disagreement, but there are not a single-thought party. in the democrat party if you're

the democratic party and the media. they want to destroy what is left of it. we know this because the democratsave announced their intentions with the two neo- marxist democrats running in georgia are elected to the senate it will be 50/50 and then the neo- marxist they hope purported vice president of the united states kamala harris and she's not there yet but they hope she will be the 51st vote for the democrats. by the slimmest of margins they will destroy our judiciary and they will destroy separation of powers and they will destroy the united states senate by packing in the united states senate and we will have a rogue legislator that will pass whatever it wants any time it wants and fundamentally alter every aspect of this society. finally, they want to destroy the electoral college so republicans can never win and republican areas of his country have lost it affect their franchise and representation. that is how serious this is. we are standing at the purpose of his and looking into the abyss because this is the target. this is the target. the democrat party never much liked the founding

there are people like vernon jones, the state representative out of georgia, who was a democrat and now became a republican, because he said the democrat party left him. i believe there are a lot of democrats out there, especially in states like california, that are looking at the state of the democrat party and saying, i don't recognize it. i feel like they are more radical, liberal and i don't think the agenda items reflect where i am as a voter. i think more of them are saying, what can we do to move the country forward? yes, the republican national committee and republican leaders in congress stand ready to work to bring people together to have positive and possible response to legislation that does not hurt the american people. we are going to put forward things and support things like lower taxes. regardless of the party that stands up for the rights for the unborn, we are going to be the party that fights for parents

the democratic party. also has exploited the aspirations of the minorities without necessarily putting in a full hearted attempt to correct the historic wrongs isn't it also true that the democrats are treating minorities as as a voting group rather than the people who they have to serve. well the democratic party has a very interesting evolution because they're republicans pursued a southern strategy which eventually ended up you know with a very strong racist component as a motivating factor the democrats started out. basically a southern party i mean you know a market that had a very strong southern base. and evolved from being sort of the enablers of racism after reconstruction in the united states to becoming to spark it that eventually ended up being the party of civil rights so i would say yes there are elements within the democratic party you know that you know are very instrumental list interview off minority issues but at the same time this is also opened up to minorities and where you now have minorities being a very central component in determining where disparity is going at this point i think it's pretty clear that the democrats returning to power in the out for re

the q party. are we going to hear more of that from the democrats trying to turn the gop into the qanon party? >> yes. i think democrats see an opportunity to create more contrast not just between themselves and republicans but to show that the republican party itself is in this, you know, crisis of identity as to whether they're going to go back to the more establishment side or keep on this maga trump side. and we have seen how that division has led to democratic success, you know, most recently with georgia's two u.s. senate seats. so i think it behooves democrats to highlight this division, but also it allows democrats to say that is the republican party's problem to deal with it. don't put it on nancy pelosi to decide what happens to margery taylor green. they're putting it on kevin mccarthy and saying republicans need to decide if this is the type of person they want to welcome and elevate in their party and again that shows what type of party the republicans want to be. >> right. this fight about the party. i ask the control room to pull up headlines about a gop civil war. there is lots of press about this. but

the young democrats. and i've been involved in some form or fashion with the democratic party in this state for the past 18 years. and i was vice chair of this party and interim chair back in 2013 and came back as chairwoman in 2019, the first black woman to ever chair our state democratic party. and i know that this victory belongs to so many people on the ground because i've been in the trenches with them doing the work cycle after cycle. >> when you said watch me work to lawrence o'donnell looking ahead to these runoffs, i remember that moment. and we are watching you work. we have seen you do what you and your colleagues pull off something tremendous magnitude, politically and in lots of other ways. congratulations tonight. i know there's a long way still to go before these races are home but congratulations to what you've done thus far, congresswoman. and congratulations on being sworn in. you're going to have a tremendous year ahead of you. >> thank you, rachel. >> congresswoman nikema williams sworn in two days ago to the united states congress. she would hold the seat once held by the late great jo

their proposals through it'll also be very hard for republicans to block moves by the democratic party so the democrats are are sweeping into a moment of a rather secure hold on power for the next few years at least it looks like the democratic party seems to be the big winner as the 2020 alexion seem to be reaching somewhat of a conclusion of what is a very very long saga the vote was november and today we see what has just happened or us correspondent kill up and taking us through it let's just a tick a look at what is happening in washington d.c. these are pictures from just a little earlier with a sizable amount of the interim supporters all make up at all building showing their frustration of what they say was a cheated lection we saw earlier some people attempt to storm congress and these people if i got inside where congress. was attempting to certify the results of the presidential election essentially making president joe biden the next leader all of america. this is what occurred let's get into this because i'm very happy this say live on the program we have got. journalist and commentator sp

history we have some kind of mess censorship done on behalf of the democratic party it's almost as if the media here has become to the democratic party what profit was to the russian socialist party i mean it's an arm of the democratic party it turns nothing good about. it produced nothing bad about the democrats even if it involves a child in danger in child pornography that's really an homage bribery ok well just on that i gave i get other moderns i have to say on the allegations obviously joe biden is that my son like a lot of people at home have a drug problem he's over taking it is because he's worked on it i'm proud of him i'm proud of it's less of sir same kind of thought of giuliani the edge of southern lebanon then take it well in the media played on the media going to take the time will let me answer that his son isn't over his drug problem i have the photographs to show it his son has a 30 year joint problem that's a massive trial and one reason he has to address problems joe but when this man was a young man having this serious drug problem instead of letting him live a life that was simple he started to use him as

the majority party in the house is that democratic party. the democrats are not likely to costagainst any state that -- cast electoral votes for biden and kamala harris. the senate, as he mentioned republicans have a narrow majority in the senate, but we only know about a dozen or so senate republicans who want to inject to electoral college votes. we do not see a majority. we would need all the republicans to have a chance of voting to eject and we do not see that number. the odds of this successfully setting aside is actually very small. professor and co-author of a book, choosing the leader. thank you for your insight and information today about this opening day of the 117th congress. >> thank you for having me. >> let's go to the floor and watch as they finish up the quorum call, making sure that there is a majority present for the first day. they need to digitally record their present. there are still seven members who have not voted yet. according to the tally on this, that is done by the house of representatives. we will wait and see if we get seve

chippingl doing a good job at chipping away at the block but it is a long road because if you are a party which is the democratic party which is the democraticever going to deliver on, you just have a residual plot to pitch the black people and get them to vote every year and that is exactly whatjoe biden is doing in his administration with all of these executive orders that aim to do absolutely nothing. it is just a bunch of talk. that is a complaint you hear from the far left of the democratic party as well. i wonder before you get to that, how comfortable are you within the current republican party? people debate whether mr trump actually is or was a white supremacist, but he did and was and says and said a lot of the stuff a white supremacist would say. stuff a white supremacist would sa . ~ ., say. well, i disagree with that wholeheartedly. _ say. well, i disagree with that wholeheartedly. obviously, i say. well, i disagree with thatl wholeheartedly. obviously, i'm wholeheartedly. 0bviously, i'm a conservative, donald trump is one of the reasons i became a republican. donald trump has given access and given life to a lot of people in th

people who did vote for obama did go to donald trump because of the failure of the democratic party because what the democratic party fails to do is they embrace and centrism embracing centrism is what is kill that party because they don't fully go be high these populist ideas that somebody like sanders was hers any and instead they half way put in putting their foot there and they have to take it out so that is exactly why the democratic party has failed to actually build a cohesive brand and also in by the same token the progressive movement has it in washington d.c. as an opposed nancy pelosi it hasn't opposed the old guard enough to actually or do something else i just don't get it i thinking about that because i'm very curious about that because with the exception of and in the minds of millions and millions of people the contested presidential election it was a it was a bad day for democrats on election day i mean it was it was a shellacking how do you account for that. oh you know i o's are. going to take a you know i really think we have to kind of think about the idea who really owns the idea progress

true, and what is fault zero accountability and transparency and go donate to the democratic party and support the democraticarty part that have coalition and jennifer, a top level, long-term, advisor to the clintons boasted on twitter that the reason that facebook and silicon valley are now sensors enemy of the t democratic partys because they know that democrats are now in control of the key committees and have to do their bidding nrd to get what they want but the reality is, they're thede one who is we owe power silicon valley doesea and rest f us are subject to their undemocratic p and unaccountable whims. >>at you've been saying this for 20 year and almost 20 years ago you said lawsam like this will e used against american citizens andd toipght i want to confess but you were right i want to acknowledge that you were rightt and we shouldut be really, realy concerned glenn we'll be talking to you more we appreciate it. thank you. >> thanks tucker. >> this is coming from everywhere all of a sudden and unbhak we know at this hour and we know overn, last 24 hours twitter w specifically, has band a number of

i think the republican party has some soul searching to do here about our future, but so does the democratic party. and i think the democraticsident-elect biden and the congressional leaders in the democratic party need to decide, do they want their party to be singularly focused on political vengeance and hate towards the -- this current president or pursue a policy agenda and better yet, do they want to pursue a bipartisan policy agenda that has the prospect of bringing the country together? i hope -- >> okay. >> -- instead of obsessing about the former president, that we can come together, republicans and democrats, bring the country together and look at the reality that there are millions of americans on the right and the left who feel left behind and we need to come together and help those people. >> understood. listen, on that question, though, you were in congress for the last four years. was there an effort to bring the country together either from the republican leadership in the house or this president? i don't think many people saw evidence of that. >> jim, i think there's a lot of blame to go around. i think just

democrats in the u.s. senate that will lead to a situation where the democratic party will control 'd the senate the house of representatives and the white house that will be a pretty secure hold on power in washington d.c. for the democrats republicans will not be able to push through their proposals and they won't be really able to block proposals and agendas of the democrats this will be a situation where the democrats have a pretty strong upper hand they have not been in this secure of a position since 2009 now at this point 70 percent of republicans say that they favor donald trump and that they would wish that other republicans could be more like donald trump but it seems that the country is pretty effectively polarized and the democrats seem pretty effectively unified against donald trump and his administration over the last 4 years so at this point things are looking very good for the democratic party donald trump is on the brink of leaving office but his supporters are quite angry and it appears his movement will not be going away it could indeed be a long couple of years for the republican party
