eugene: we only have so much time. as early as this week, we expect to see the republicans killed the idea of the bipartisan commission to investigate january 6. 35 republicans in the house supported the idea. seems like there is a great forgetting, a whitewashing that has been happening on the right. i am curious, we are both curious, what is happening in your party right now? is this going to blow back on the effort to retake the house? rep. kinzinger: been terms of the impact for 2022, i wish i could say i knew. i do think the republicans have such tailwinds right now when it comes to, it's a close majority obviously the democrats have unified control, they are going pretty far left in terms of what they were elected to do. then you have redistricting issues. the winds of history tells us he will take the majority. i do think we are doing the best we can to put that at risk. the bottom line is as a majority you have to come forward with ideas, and outlook for the future. i think what is happening right now is this d

joining us on the set, reporter for "the washington post," eugene scott. eugene, great to have you in the studio here. let's start with the january 6th select idea. democrats have been debating for some time how to properly investigate this. there was confusion late yesterday. it seemed as though we were on track. but then the house speaker pulled back a little bit and now we still don't know. what are the pros and cons. we know a commission is likely off the table. what are the pros and cons of a collect committee in this instance? >> sure. they're going to use it to accuse democrats of trying to move forward with the idea that it is just something to be used to criticize him. and what we will see what will happen, as democrats will be put in a position where they will constantly have to defend and

still with us, eugene robinson and bill kristol.et today that got our attention. elise stefanik, the harvard educated upstate new york from enthusiastic put this quiet picture. one team, save america. it raises so many questions. does this mean she and mccarthy have agreed to see other people? and does this mean trump is as diminished as some might hope? >> barbara comstock, who i know. she was my congresswoman here, until she lost in 2018. she was quite close to and voted very much like at least stefanik. two intelligent, moderate republicans. one from virginia, one from new york. forward-looking members of the party. uncomfortable with trump. kept their distance, but sort of nominally stay part of the team there. barbara comstock lost, elise stefanik went on with trump. she's now number three in the house. the photo with trump, visiting trump at mar-a-lago. barber comstock is writing op-eds in the new york times. i like barbara comstock. i'm really disgusted with what elise stefanik has done. but which one is winning? i mean, that

eugene and mike are going to stay with us.this break will come back and when we do the republicans attacking biden on russia. they must of just agreed to forget our national humiliation in helsinki. remember the soccer ball? er the soccer ball new from crest i've been telling everyone, the secret to great teeth... is having healthy gums. keep yours healthy with new crest advanced gum restore. it's clinically proven to detoxify below the gum line, and it restores by helping heal gums in as little as seven days. because you can't have a healthy smile, without healthy gums. advanced gum restore from crest. the #1 toothpaste brand in america. do you have a life insurance policy you no longer need? now you can sell your policy, even a term policy, for an immediate cash payment. call coventry direct to learn more. we thought we had planned carefully for our retirement. but we quickly realized that we needed a way to supplement our income. our friends sold their policy to help pay for their medical bills and that got me thinking. may

so i'm going to try eugene with this one.side the white house there is a glimmer of hope that a separate set of infrastructure talks could lead to bipartisan agreement. at minimum they see little downside in trying. is there a downside to you, eugene? >> no. i don't think there's a downside in trying because i do agree with bill that doing stuff is better than not doing stuff. so do stuff. try to see if this alternative route of getting bipartisan support is going to work. there should be an agreement that can be made on infrastructure. there just -- there should be an agreement there theoretically. and so they should continue looking for ways to find it. and if there is no way to find it, at least demonstrate that through votes, through debate legislation, bring it up, vote on it, have senators explain why they don't want that new airport or freeway interchange or rural broadband or whatever it is in there for their state. and then maybe eventually you get it done through reconciliation after demonstrating there's no way to

still with us, eugene robinson and mike murphy.tart want to start with a quote from my favorite columnists who looks shockingly like you. this man mr. robinson writes, there are those who deny that anything called systemic racism is a feature of the american landscape. they should be aware that history tells a very different story. eugene, i note that this is in the wake of the first american president to go to tulsa to talk about and embrace what happened in tulsa. and the national shame that it should have been all these many decades. but in your view, what should the conversation on race consist of right now? >> first of all, it should consist of an acknowledgment of our history. our full history, as i put it in that column. which also was perhaps the worst, arguably the worst but. certainly not the only white mob massacre of african american communities across the country, in the early decades of the 20th century. this was not a one-off. this happened in atlanta in 1906. this happened in so many cities in 1919, that it was call

with that, let's bring in our lead off guests, eugene daniels. white house correspondent for politico and coauthor of each day's addition of the political playbook. carmen best, former police chief in the city of seattle. chuck rosenberg, justice department veteran. former u.s. attorney. good evening and welcome to you all. chuck, i want to begin with your life's work which is the law and get your opinion on this sentence, considering the range was no time at all to 30 years. >> yeah, brian, you're exactly. right people look at the floor, no time in jail, and the statutory maximum, in this case, 40 years in jail. and they assume is going to be one or the other. actually, minnesota, like virtually over the state in the federal system, has a set of sentencing guidelines so that the average case is treated in the same way for like the defendants who've done like things, with like criminal history records. so, for derek chauvin, that number was was at zero, was at 40, that number was about 12 and a half to 15 years. a judge departed upward from that.

as eugene has exit -- suggested, it will take.le, the democrats who are on the left edge of the party, eugene, are going to have to keep their voices up while joe biden is trying to placate the republican cooperators that he has so far. >> yes. and they may not be in a mood to -- you know, kind of be bystanders in this whole process. and watch this bill be written by joe manchin, essentially. and so, we hear noise from the left of the party, and a clamor to do reconciliation and do it in the way democrats can. the problem with that is, they have to deal with the senate. it's pretty clear where the senate is right now. and so, that is just going to be friction that both biden and speaker pelosi are going to have to deal with. >> let's listen to what alexandra ocasio-cortez said about this yesterday. >> i think it is very important for the president to know that house progressives, and i believe, you, know democratic caucus is here to ensure that he does not fail. we are here to ensure that he is successful in making sure that we do

eugene, before we get started, i have to say congratulations. haven't seen you since your big news, your engagement. i'm glad to see you celebrated by covering infrastructure. thank you for that and congratulations. take us behind the scenes. what led to biden's public walkback of those remarks yesterday? >> yeah, first, thank you very much. thank you, that's a very exciting time. but in the white house, it became very clear to all the aides that the president -- what the president said in their eyes was taken the wrong way, but it did sound to all of us as an implicit veto threat at the very least. so they had to kind of figure out what to do. president biden himself was on the phone kind of calming the fears of lawmakers as this conversation continued to kind of billow out of control, and really did, you know, when you talk to folks behind the scenes, they were all starting to get worried because you started hearing republicans having big concerns about the veto threat. now, there were a couple of republicans who were saying they didn't think

eugene, thanks for joining me. >> thank you for having me.e and looking forward to it. gerry: you have restaurants and gyms, how is business compared to pre-pandemic? >> well, again, i could only speak to microcosms to new york, los angeles, las vegas and we are back to where we were pre-covid. i was in the restaurant here in new york city last night and you could see the energy in the room. every floor is full. every seat is taking. people are back at the bar and i was having conversations with normal guest that is were walking in and how they felt to be at a bar, at a dining room table, greeting each other, seeing each other's faces. there are people who have been working with each other for the past year and a half who haven't seen a true smile out of their colleague or coworker or their friend. it's just been -- it's been wonderful. the weather has been fantastic and honestiy it feels spring day in 2019. gerry: we still see a lot of people not coming into work in cities, working from home, office occupancy is low in new york city. do you

co-author of "the playbook" eugene daniels and an msnbc contributor.'s jobs report could make or break president biden's economic plan if the numbers don't look good, which is still an if. what would the fallout look like on capitol hill? >> it would be swift and it would, obviously, be swifter for republicans. a lot of republicans that say, you know, we told you so that this wasn't just a fluke. the opponents of the republicans would also say and other opponents of biden economic plan will say, this is, this is exactly what we said when we said that he shouldn't be president. they would go through all of that. but if the numbers are where people have been talking about the 600 to 700,000 number and the other number hit a million and if that is what happens here then they'll say the economy is doing just fine and you don't have to have more spending, right. so that part of it is also, it is kind of a choose your own adventure. and they've been talking about inflation. they've been talking about the republicans have been talking about the president ince

eugene i'd like to begin with you and your beat. how much more room does biden have left to negotiate with republicans and but other option does he have? >> at this, point it's as much room as he wants. the issue is keeping every member of his party happy that the negotiations are continuing. that's where we are at right now. the back and forth is interesting. i've been talking to people about this and what we realized is we are just not used to reporting on people in washington d.c. to negotiating. it's been a long time since we've seen a back and forth. at every stop it feels like that's that they're moving on. obviously not. they're talking again on monday. republicans haven't come close enough to where the white house democrats want them to be so they will try this one more time. but you have at this point is a democratic party in congress who start to get really and see. you have markups of other infrastructure bills happening next week. we have other deadlines. there's not a lot of time left on the legislative calendar. they d

eugene, let's talk about voting rights. on the show, an existential issue for people. and become the issue for the democratic base. we saw yesterday, even with all 50 democrats, they can't get anywhere with this. what's next here? >> i think what you can expect democrats to do, based on what they signaled really to lean into this and get involved in state elections an remindering voters who you send to your state capitols is as influential as who you send to the nation's capitol. and pushing back on voting rights, as you know, this is the first time that washington has not moved forward on voting rights. democrats do have experience on relying on activists and local organizations to rally and try to get the vote out. it's going to be much harder. so what is clear, they just can't rely on republicans that previously suggested that. they're actually for this issue that their vote is saying they're not for. >> what's your consensus how much concern there is behind the scenes among democrats who worry this was set up to fail in

eugene daniels, coauthor of "political playbook." daniel goldman, former u.s. assistant district attorney for southern district of new york, served as general counsel for the house intelligence committee during the first trump impeachment. of your resume that we asked you to be on tonight and i'd like to begin with you so you are both a doj veteran and worked closely with chairman schiff for all we know your name is on one of these lists and data is shared. what is your personal reaction to story and can you explain why this is such a deadly serious matter? >> i'm horrified to see this. it's not for a lot of the reasons others have said. i think the department of justice has every right broadly to investigate crimes but knowing the people who received these subpoenas or whose records were sought through these subpoenas, i find it very hard to believe that there was any legitimate and real and credible evidence that would have led an objective prosecutor to issue these grand jury subpoenas. and that means that it was a purely political hatchet job if that's accu

the "washington post," eugene scott. eugene, you may or may not have heard the fire alarm. i am definitely awake now. this has become the absolute center and touch-tone for activists in the democratic party. this is an existential issue for so many people. we're watching senator manchin, and it's interesting that senator sinema of arizona came out and said she won't change her mind, even though she might support s-1. >> that's true. and sinema has been in support of keeping the filibuster in place. she argues that's because she represents arizona, a very independent state, previously represented by john mccain who was not as partisan as we're currently seeing both parties being. that's led to great frustration for her party and democrats as a whole who are frustrated with the issue at hand right now, which is voting rights. as you know, as you stated, republicans have not even suggested, at least a significant number of republicans, that they would be interested in debating this topic that's going to be so essential to h

eugene robinson is one of the few people who understands joe manchin's situation. or he claims to.ou wrote, i understand the reality of manchin's situation. he is a political unicorn. donald trump won his state by 39 points and joe manchin is the only democrat standing in the state of west virginia, and that basically explains where we are with joe manchin tonight, doesn't it? >> well, it explains some of it. i mean, it explains -- it doesn't explain why joe manchin is going to essentially block the biden agenda on voting rights and perhaps on infrastructure and on other things. it does explain why democrats are stuck with joe manchin, because there is no other democrat that could be elected to the senate from west virginia. if joe manchin were replaced by a trumpist republican, which he would be if he were not the senator, then, you know, mitch mcconnell will be back in charge of the senate. so democrats are clearly materially better off with joe manchin than without joe manchin. that said, manchin is -- you know, has the key in his hand to a lot of real progress that can be made.

eugene, thank you so much for being here.ns here because there still is optimism, i think, on both sides. we've heard it a little more from republicans, which has been the case throughout the process. the risk, of course, to leaving while this bill gets written is that the groups who have vested interests in each side and democrats have been talking to many on their side, republicans working with police unions and other groups, they get their hands on it, and ewell f -- all of a sudden what seems like an agreement turns entirely. what do you say? >> that's so true. good to see you, kasie. one of the things about any bill is it's all about tiingtiming, ? so they don't get the influence and change what happens in the room. this is a good example of why hard, soft general deadlines in d.c. are not great. senator scott said june or bust. that bust has occurred. we're moving on from that. what we know now is they say they're going to continue to talk. they have been kind of bull-ish, more bull-ish than anyone on capitol hill that

eugene, i'd like to begin with you and your beat. how much more room does biden have left to negotiate with republicans, and what other option does he have? >> i think at this point it's as much room as he wants. the issue is keeping every member of his party still happy that the negotiations are continuing. that is where we're at right now. negotiating the back and forth, it's interesting. i've been talking to a lot of people about this. and what we start to realize is we're just not used to as reporters and people that are in washington, d.c. to negotiating. it's been such a long time since we've seen such a back and forth. at every stop it feels like that's it, they're moving on and obviously not. like you outlined republicans haven't come close enough to where the white house democrats want them to be. so they're going to try this one more time. what you have at this point is a democratic party in congress who started to get really antsy and you also have markups of possible other infrastructure bills happening next week. you als

eugene, what is the white house view of this thus far? >> right now, i mean, we've talked about this before the justice department has been very busy and in the news over the last few weeks. they are staying out of it. this is something that they have talked about and the reason is exactly because of what we're seeing right now. they want to make sure that they are not seen as being a political, as using the doj in any kind of political way. when you talk to people behind the scenes, you talk to them on the record, you talk to them on background, off the record they will tell you the exact same thing which is that president biden wants to stay out of the doj. he is telling his people to not try to put their thumb on the scale and let them investigate this and whatever else pops up. they want to see what happens, who did what and what was his peanut and what was seized. they also know and are watching what is happening on congress. they know that if you see sessions or barr both be subpoenaed and brought in congress, that is going to be a

eugene once a week i like to check in on your manchin annoyance meter. runs in the red because manchin let it be known he met tonight with the texas democrats with this compromise on voting rights and manchin is the center over attention again. >> yeah. yeah. he is the star of the joe manchin show. so he's trying to get a renewed for another season i guess. look. about his compromise proposal on voting rights show me the ten republican votes. you know? can he get ten republicans to sign on with him to this legislation and/or legislation that encompasses the provisions? if he does that's something to talk about. there are not -- certainly are not ten republican votes for any stronger and more comprehensive voting rights legislation. if he's not willing to talk about the filibuster in any way, shape or form then show me the votes. i don't think they exist. maybe he can find them. good luck. >> mike murphy, same question, especially when you consider that manchin is most popular republican in the democratic caucus. can he bring over ten souls? >> he is the

still with us, eugene robinson and mike murphy.. saying, there who those who deny that anything called systemic racism is a feature of the american landscape. they should know this is very different from what american history says. this said, what should the conversation on race in america be? >> first of all, a consistent acknowledgment of our full history. as i put in that column, tulsa was arguably the worst, but certainly not the only white mob massacre of african-american communities across the country in the early decades of the 20th century. this was not a one-off. it happened in atlanta in 1906, it happened in so many cities in 1919 that it was called a red summer. these were white riots aimed at destroying black businesses which were competing with white businesses, aimed at killing and intimidating black workers who were competing against whites successfully for jobs in the growing industrial economy. and this is part of our history. the right wing is all a-flutter about critical race theory, and i guarantee you that 0.00

s track and field olympic trials in eugene had to be delayed to the evening hours today.and the extreme heat even created risks out there on the roadway, causing tires to explode and cars to break down, knowing that somebody is on the side of the road, probably with no a c. probably not thinking their cars going to break down and not have water. you're gonna hustle to get to those people. and as we approached the fourth of july, fire officials really up and down the west coast have a, saying all it takes is a little spark to start a potentially devastating and deadly fire and trying to find a way to keep cool proved to be a difficult task for those in oregon. many people had the idea to find relief in one of portland's city pools, but portland parks have not been able to hire enough lifeguards this season after covid-19 restrictions forced layoffs last year, many people had to be turned away, officials say. they've only hired half the number needed to operate safely at full capacity. i'm just glad that they're open in general, because last year they weren't open at all. s

. >>> joining me now, reporting for "the washington post" eugene scott. good morning.ou for being here. what has been the reaction so far that you've picked up in terms of president biden using yesterday's solemn memorial to call out those two fellow democrats? >> it depends who you're paying attention to. from some democrats who have expressed frustration since biden was elected, they want to put on the fact that a democratic party is not always as unified as they believe needs to be to get legislation moving forward. whether or not this is going to be bring them closer together is not yet clear considering how recently the comments were made. but part of the reactions as you have noted is that perhaps the perception that the senators are not as supportive of the president is a bit exaggerated and that could lead to some push back biden given his most recent statements. >> the president has spent so much energy trying to come up with some sort of bipartisan agreement or at least show he is trying to do so. i thought yesterday the president's speech was powerful and he

as eugene was mentioning, infrastructure that's still in the ether, that's going to be a months-long process, but there could be something there, geoff. >> it is definitely infrastructure week. thank you both for the reality check. >>> making up for lost time in the classroom. we'll go to one school where summers are seeing a record rise in enrollment. >>> donald trump in the political fray and he's still -- still -- pushing the big lie. il- still -- pushing the big lie you'll find better laughs at family barbecues. you'll find a better life is in store at miracle-ear, when you experience the exclusive miracle-ear advantage. including innovative technology, like the new miracle-earmini. so powerful, yet it's nearly invisible. we're so confident we can improve your life, we're offering a 30-day risk-free trial. call 1-800-miracle today and experience the miracle-ear advantage. there's no other snack like a planters cashew. what else can go from your car's cup holder to a crystal bowl and seem equally at home? i guess the most well-rounded snack isn't round at all. it's more cashew-sha

were really into eugenics .terrible as that is and i was like, there probably was eugenics in home ec as well if you look for it and once i knew where it might show up, i knew there was a john harvey kellogg connection so it was just, that really had the moment of i'm not making this up. it really is there. they were early were involved inthis . >> you can thank them. >> we have another question here that says my high school had a vocational thing like no home economics classes. is there a link between home economics and trade schools ? >> i'm really surprised your school did not have home act in vocational length because this is something i tried to bring out in the book is that home economics like is, was and always has been vocational education. and it was that from the start when the federal government began funding vocational education both in high schools and training teachers in colleges niin the 1910s, home economics was the only field they recognized for women. home economics started in black colleges a

"the washington post" eugene scott, thank you, my friend, for being here.to the south of france came as a "slap in the face" to the country's president. >>> plus, the totally different reason reporters traveling to europe ahead of president biden experienced a flight delay. it is definitely "way too early" for that still! o early" for that still people everywhere living with type 2 diabetes are waking up to what's possible with rybelsus®. ♪ you are my sunshine ♪ ♪ my only sunshine... ♪ rybelsus® works differently than any other diabetes pill to lower blood sugar in all 3 of these ways... increases insulin... decreases sugar... and slows food. the majority of people taking rybelsus® lowered their blood sugar and reached an a1c of less than 7. people taking rybelsus® lost up to 8 pounds. rybelsus® isn't for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. don't take rybelsus® if you or your family ever had medullary thyroid cancer, or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if allergic to it. stop rybelsus® and get medical help right away i

i am a person of color, i will tend to believe these kinds of statements because, like even the eugenics movements, it was just people of color, it was poor people. if you're poor, regardless of what color you are in this country, many things have happened where the government has made certain decisions or just absolutely discounted the rights and the humanity of the people being effected. >> i guess the difference would be that in our first conversation, which is, these things are revealed to actually occurred. it goes into nick's thing. there are things that are done that are wrong and eventually that aren't conspiracies. some of these certainly fall into that. but this is also the basis of -- is age designed in a lab. the rational from here is easier to buy. some of those other beliefs, this is going to be the proof text for that in the same way if not as believable for other conspiracies are going to draw on what the american government has done more generally. yeah? >> what's interesting to me is that the -- this is from an english teacher. the rhetorical moves, the rhetoric is the
