so, eugene, "playbook" has been essential reading during the speakers' fight.lost two votes to become speaker already. he is calling for another later today. seems like, though, fellow republicans are signaling they're not going to be willing to wait out 15 votes like they did for kevin mccarthy. what are some other options if jordan can't get there? >> at this point, they are continuing to tell the reporters that are on the hill that he's not going to get it. people are more emboldened as the numbers dwin a preview for you on "playbook" today, coming out in 15, 20 minutes, is mchenry, the current acting speaker of the house, speaker pro tem of the house at this point, and whether or not there is actually a coalition that could come together and give him enough power so that the house of representatives can actually do what they're supposed to do. you were just talking about israel. this is a house that hasn't even been able to pass a resolution that says we support israel, because they don't technically have a speaker of the house. there are some issues with g

eugene eugene stoner worked for a startup called armalite. they were a subsidiary of fairchild. and what's what's amazing is the guy the guy who hired him is this relentless pitchman, this real oily salesman named george sullivan. and sullivan tries to get stoner numerous times to sign away the rights to his patent. he patented this novel gas system that's inside ar 15 and m-16 and several times he tried to get him to it away for basically a song. and stone, his wife would, be so angry. she said, you can't do that. have to let a lawyer look at this. eventually word made it up to, you know, the higher ups there at fairchild. and they reprimanded george and they made sure that stoner did get royalties. but what happened was that armalite did not make very much progress selling this unique rifle to, the military. and so they sold the patent rights, the rights to the gun, to venerable old company that everyone knows about in america. so at the time of, the vietnam war, when they are ramping up production, was colt was making all the money. and you can you can see the story. why this

eugene, glory to ukraine, as always very glad to see you on the espresso air and on the air of the worlduring the war. glory to the heroes, mr. yury, we are equally glad to see you, equally glad that we are gradually approaching victory, despite certain individual objective difficulties. yes, that's right, mr. evgeny, well, let's start with the main thing, the objective difficulties, probably, probably, the election results in slovakia, a country that helped us, well, i hope that it will help, but in view of robert's statements fitzo, the man, ex-prime minister of this country and a person who did not win with his party in these elections, help to ukraine is somehow already...' under a big question mark, at least yesterday evening at the press conference after the announcement of the results , he said that we will continue to support ukraine humanitarianly , but we have much bigger problems inside slovakia. mr. yevhen, can we say that these elections in slovakia are a kind of, unfortunately, trend of decreasing attention to ukraine in europe. if we proceed from this logic, then we have p

eugene, i want to start with you. we can get into the nitty-gritty, in the weeds of the speaker's race and what delegations are meeting and how they will try to play this out, but to start to pull back a little bit, this was a week republicans were supposed to start moving on two more spending bills, which is at the trucks of this entire problem. instead the institution is completely paralyzed. it is a critical piece of one of the branches of the federal government of the united states of america, and no one has any idea if there's a path forward at this point. how is it possible we got here? >> if we think about how this began, mccarthy ascending to the speaker leadership position, we shouldn't be surprised. he had a hard time getting there in the first place. we didn't know it would happen within 12 months, but he would find himself in a state someone would bring forward a motion to vacate based on disagreements on policy, procedure, behavior, ideology, and he had a hard time keeping this party together for various

prosecutor shan wu, also with us political white house correspondent msnbc political contributor eugeneiels as well. shan, let me start with you on this one. i want to read a portion of the "new york timeorting on this. according to another person mili with the matter, mr. pratts now among more than 8 people whom prosecutors have identified as possible witnesses who could testify against mr. trump at the classified documents trial, considering this reporting coming out of the "new york times" and abc news as well, how strong of a witness do you see mr. pratt being, shan? >> he sounds like a very strong witness. i think the question is his particular interaction with trump has not been charged. it certainly would be important evidence to get in front of the jury, but they're going to have to get it in under the category of it's evidence of trump's state of mind showing its intent. since it's not charged conduct, it would technically be outside of the court, hearsay. it's very powerful evidence. of course to the jury, the point would be this shows his m.o. this is how he treats classifica

and senior politics reporter for axios, eugene scott., we spent so much time yesterday and this morning, yesterday morning, talking about all of this, watching it happen live, and so much has happened since, including gaetz, who's now saying he's going to move forward with a motion to try and vacate congressman mccarthy. catch us up. what's going on on capitol hill? tell us what you are hearing. >> well, because speaker mccarthy ended up meeting democrats essentially to come to the rescue and bail him out so that they can pass this 45-day clean resolution, to stop the government from shutting down. now, he is facing a new threat, some from the same person who's been threatening him all along, congressman matt gaetz, who you heard from a couple of minutes ago at the top there, who want to oust him from the speakership chair because he needed more democrats to support the bill then republicans who ended up voting for it. now, speaker mccarthy, for his part, just keeps saying, bring it on. watch this yesterday. >> if somebody wanting to mak

at the very beginning, eugene stoner work for a startup called armalite. they were a subsidiary of fairchild. what is amazing is the guy who hired him is this relentless pitchman, this salesman named george sullivan. sullivan tries to get stoner numerous times to sign away the rights to his patent. he patented this system inside the ar-15 and m-16. several times he tried to get him to sign it away for basically a song and stoner's wife would be so angry and say you cannot do that, you have to let a lawyer look at this. eventually they reprimanded george sullivan and it made sure stoner got some royalties. what happened was armalite did not make very much progress selling this unique rifle to the military so they sold the rights to the gun to colt. an old gun company that everyone knows about in america. at the time of the vietnam war when they were ramping up production, it was colt making all the money. you can see in the story why this was important. we look at these declassified documents and a lot of people raise concerns about the switch of ammunition

host: let's hear from eugene in atlanta, independent line. caller: good morning. i have a comment, personal comment. i can speak for myself. at this time, i am happy and proud to say i'm a rino. thank you. host: that's eugene. comments on the president's trip to israel, on the house speaker election. you can make those at (202) 748-8000 for republicans, for democrats, (202) 748-8001, and independents, (202) 748-8002. the new york times broke down the republicans who voted against jim jordan into categories. one of those, biden district republicans, the republicans in the house of representatives district biden won in the last election, six of them who did not vote for jordan. another group, institutionalists, several republicans who serve on the appropriations committee and control federal spending expressing concerns about jim jordan's anti-spending past, worrying he might demand across-the-board cuts. then there are those loyal to kevin mccarthy, including doug lamalfa, john james, carlos gimenez, mike kelly. the wildcard category, victoria spartz and ken buck.

i want to bring in eugene scott. given the backdrop ryan laid out, talk through the opportunities here as we are at the end of 2023, about to head into a presidential ect here, a campaign year in 2024. any chance for some of the bipartisanship you just mentioned with speaker johnson and down pennsylvania avenue, president biden? >> well, it does not sound like it if you listen to democrats. already the democratic congressional committee referred to mike johnson as jim jordan and a sports coach. they believe he takes positions at the opposite spectrum of what democrats want. to your point earlier he is relatively new to the hill. he only has been in congress since 2017. only started to take leadership positions since 2019. republicans don't. that is in part why he is able to get over the finish line. i think what we are go to see in the next few weeks are opportunities for people to get to understand and to know who mike johnson is. and beyond the position positions that he has taken and beyond a position that he took

we're here with professor eugene kantorovich.the antonin scalia school of law here in the united states. he's also a scholar at the coachella policy forum. professor, let's get to it. why are you being lectured in israel constantly about the rules of law and proportional city when you're up against a terrorist enemy that wants to blow out every jew in in in israel? yeah, it's a little bit obnoxious when president biden comes over and he said many nice things, but then he said, of course, don't punish gazans. civilians don't engage in collective punishment as if israel would ever do such a thing. biden has an interest. he needs to support israel. you know, at least openly and somewhat to not lose the jewish vote in the elections. but he also wants to keep this fight contained and keep israel from going all the way and actually taking out its enemies because hamas, the people who perpetrated this horrible massacre, are simply puppets of iran. and of course, biden's middle east policy, like obama's, has been focused on making nice w

general, kevin mccarthy, well , of course, his last name is so pure american, there joe mccarthy, eugenere not successful, in many ways, therefore , when he first arrived, that is, the era of macarthyism did not work out, yes, the era of macarthyism did not work out then, and for eugene mccarthy, as a leftist, the truth is that politics is completely opposite. joseph macarthy, well, that’s his last name. mets, well, mat, gets, this is a person, i like it better, no, this is a person, sometimes, yes, so, gets, the person who, in fact, arranged it all, but he didn’t fall in love with makarte right there in january, when they voted, it was it is known that he will still build his own intrigues, yes, these intrigues will happen, because. yes, a representative, a representative, so to speak, of a wealthy family, his father, in my opinion, senator florida, florida was, by the way, goetz himself was brought in for there, he had, had problems with the law, about something there , something related to prostitution, this is such a rarity for american politics, it is simply impossible, it simply ch

[cheers and applause] shout out from kelly clarkson, much better than holding some dumb trophy. >> kelly: i don't know if that's true but i will take it. i love a mighty wind, i love waiting for goffman but here's my thinking. i laughed my entire time -- i know you're an actor so you're not supposed to laugh but how did you not laugh and all of those scenes? >> well, i did. [laughter] particularly in waiting for goffman because that was the first one, and because chris guessed who i cowrote to the movies with and chris directed them and he's one of the funniest guys ever. >> kelly: you're not so bad yourself. >> he had my number, let's put it

i went to expert eugene kontravoich . okay, what are the rules? >> the rules are simple.ou are allowed to dark your enemies. and -- allowed to attack your enemies and military targets. the actual combatants or things they use to support themselves. what about civilians? you are not allowed to target civilians or o deliberately for purpose of killing them. in any war that has ever been fought it is impossible to have immaculate war, international law allowed incident tal damage. and there is a rule, p pro portionality. does not mean they of similar, that is the opposite, to win wear you need to inflict greater casualties, it means, if there is anticipated civilian casualties they need to be proportional to the anticipated m military advantage. what are israel's military objectives in the war to prevent its genocide, the murder, torture and dismemberment of every member of the jewish people in israel, that is a significant m military objective. i'll add, there is a rule that the other side, that each party, needs to separate military from civilians, hamas violates that rule

and eugene mirman was going to jump off a cliff by the time you were done. bob was the first person i interviewed, and he's a friend and has always been a mentor. i didn't realize. so i actually took questions that female comedians had gotten, and i realized afterwards, as i started to do press for the book, every guy who interviewed me was just like not they were like they had like i think i made them really nervous and i didn't mean to. it was it wasn't i didn't mean for it to be as indicting as i think it might come across on the page. i just thought it was funny. i took actual questions and i cited them because some of them are unbelievable. and i reached out to my favorite male comedians. i reached out to a lot of people and the ones that are in the book are the ones i got back. i reached out to louie. he didn't get back to me. i wanted to see if louie would think that, you know, if, if, if he thought that men accepted his apology. i reached out to norm macdonald. no norm had reached out to me about something else, and i reached out to norm and i was li

. >> joining me now, garrett haake, eugene daniels, and susan page, the author of "madam speaker, nancy have to appease matt gaetz, am i right? >> reporter: that's right. he will have the same math problem that kevin mccarthy had and that anyone would have with this republican conference. how do you keep the matt gaetzes of the world happy while also the more institutionalist members, particularly those who were loyal to kevin mccarthy and have called matt gaetz everything from a charlatan to someone burning down the house. tell me how you will evaluate who you think should be the next speaker. >> to me, it's a question of leadership. it's a question moral clarity. there needs to be an understanding that we either come together and work as a team, or it's going to be a very self-destructive remainder of the term. >> reporter: that becomes the central question for jim jordan, steve scalise or anybody else who tries to get into this race. what's your plan to herd these cats so that these lawmakers who didn't run on a platform of we want to come to washington and spend our team electing le

eugene, we do need to start with this breaking news from maine, another horrific mass shooting. it's becoming or has been quite common as america to do in these events, to wake up to them. we're likely to hear from president biden today. what does he tell the american people that he hasn't said before? what kind of assurances can he provide the public? what do you expect to hear from him? >> you know, sam, i'm not quite sure he'll be able to offer anything new considering this is a situation he's found himself in too many times even before getting to the white house. but i do think he will take the opportunity to, you know, assert himself as the consulter in chief as he has done before. and pretty soon after if not today he'll probably try to speak about the need for mental health care, gun control legislation. we've certainly seen that already coming from some lawmakers and activist organizations. and he will probably try to put forward an argument not today but very soon why he thinks he is the best person to lead a country in a direction that can make these types of incidents

german mp eugene schmid shared this opinion with our tv channel.ording to him, the government. plays that she is ready to take radical measures, the reason is naturally fear, fear of losing power, fear that our party is the only one, strictly speaking, that stands for the interests of the ordinary german man in the street, all the others have simply turned into some kind of clan, family structures that are difficult to get into from the outside, and who are engaged only in ensuring further prosperity for their family small business in the form of distribution... lucrative positions in the civil service and so on and so forth, that is, all this is the entire party structure of the ruling party classes, it represents a huge corruption machine, so of course no one is going to let our party there , because we immediately said that this entire political apparatus, which is aimed at working for our own pockets, we must reform, rebuild, so that finally germany's policy worked. for the interests of the country, for the interests of the ordinary german man

including eugene v debs.he socialist candidate for president in 1920 who is running from a jail cell because he has been in prison for basically standing up on a soapbox and saying this they were for capitalists. we would consider it the mildest kind of protest today but he is imprisoned under this extraordinarily illiberal law which is not the biggest part of it but the other at the center -- document prosecutions about president trump but the law allowed you to be imprisoned if you said any speech that might have a bad tendency to obstruct recruitment. so you do not have to tell people don't enlist or get shot simply by saying this is a bad war, it might lead some people not to enlist. and the court uphold these prosecutions on the idea that any speech that could have a bad tendency should be suppressed. holmes initially joined those decisions and in fact upheld the decision of some of these antiwar critics but over the summer in the early 1920's he reads and he thinks in his particular moved by a law revie

msnbc contributor eugene daniels is joining me now.house correspondent and coauthor of playbook. let's start with those members of congress. what are they saying about their experience during the attacks? he may have heard my conversation with representative gregory meeks he said he was able to text his friend dan goldman and got word while he was on his way back that they were safe and that they landed by now and that is good news and they must have some stories to tell. >> goldman was in israel with a spay for a bar mitzvah and booker was there on a worker trip with his staff members. districts they were on a very different the experience is very similar. the rocket started to take off and especially for women with his children. the stories they're definitely going to tell in detail at some point, what we hear from their staff is that they are shaken and they are back in the united states and they are ready to get started on figuring out how to fix the situation as much as they can. to that end we have just learned that senators are

eugene daniels, political white house correspondent and "playbook" coauthor.ampaigns including joe biden's. alens yeah, i will start with this. if you have two terrible options, you don't really have any good options. you have on the one hand steve scalise, who attended a klan rally 20 years ago. then you have jim jordan, who despite his background of covering up potential scandals with a wrestling team when he was coach seems to have no problem involving himself with scandals to destroy the united states. what are the options here as far as leadership for the gop? or is it just going to be one of these two terrible people? is there another choice? >> i mean, listen. i have a feeling it is going to be one of these two terrible people. frankly, gop is lacking a lot of leadership ever since donald trump took over the party. to be honest, they have to figure out a way to get a speaker of the house that's going to actually work with democrats. because the only way that they can get anything done in this congress is with democrats. the frustrating part is that, as
