george h.w. bushindeed, goes off to kyiv and starts to make an appeal for, you know, the guys to keep the band together. and i mean, it's very interesting to think back on this. next year is 250th anniversary of our own independence, and king george and we'll look at what the anniversary looks like next year. we've had a hard time despite being a revolutionary power, fought for its independence of really going along with others when they've come to that moment as well. i think in the meantime, the united states started to become an imperial power itself over time. after being helped by the french to keep the brits kind of out of the picture again during the whole period of 1812, et cetera, after that we kind of moved on, you know, pretty much doing the same thing as other great world powers were the doing at the time, too, expanding our territory, et cetera, et cetera. so george h.w. bush is feeling very uncomfortable at the idea, really kind of what he fears will be, and he was quite right in many re

i mean, george h.w. bush said that. george w bush said that. trump said that.et who these people are because they're in proceedings to determine whether what they've done in the past is a sufficient reason to deport them. so they're moving them before they know there is no final order of removal with regard to these people, and we're not even sure who they are. it's also not clear that there's any legal basis to hold them in guantanamo, since the immigration authority is limited to the territorial united states, where you have a removal order. the al qaeda people who are being held in guantanamo now are there because they are supposedly law of war detainees. in other words, people who have committed nine over 11 or other things like that. but there's no claim as to who these people are, and nobody is 100% sure who they are except that they are venezuelan of some kind. >> so the white house borders are. tom homan was asked about what comes next, and here's what he said. >> we've had a. >> migrant processing. >> center at gitmo for decades. so we're increasing ou

vance, quoting george h.w. bush from the early 90s saying this will not stand, this will not stand this aggression against kuwait. that's how presidents use to talk and history will judge the way today's leadership is dealing with the dictator in vladimir putin. to that, everybody watching at home across america, j.d. vance posted something that i think is incredible. it's a long but i want you to read it. j.d. vance said this is moralistic garbage which is unfortunately the rhetorical currency of globalists because if nothing else to say. trump and i have made two simple arguments, first, the war would not of started of president trump was an office and second, either europe or the biden administration at any pathway to victory. i was two or three years ago, it was trail. -- it was two or three years ago, it was true. i want to lay those out, first of all, he laid out number 1, he said while western allies, security benefit from the generosity of the united states, and they have walked away from our shared values.

george h.w. bush set it up as a place to hold migrants, both people coming from cuba and haiti. bringing migrants from the continental u.s, u.s. to guantanamo to hold up to something like 30,000 before they are deported. at some point, that 30,000 is a lot of people. and as you noted, each of those 30,000, they're being held and they're subject to deportation, do have a right to an attorney and bringing attorneys and facilities necessary for that kind of scale of an operation is something that i suspect this administration has, has not really thought through. and so i see a lot of challenges ahead with with this concept. >> what do you make about all of this from the ice raids with, you know, bringing one selected tv network along with them, the show of force, you know, holding migrants in gtmo. what do you make of the whole approach to immigration? i know it was predicted it was pledged during the campaign, so it shouldn't be a surprise. but what is the impact on national security? >> well, it's obvious that they're embarking on a shock and awe strategy to send a message to cen

the george h.w. bush administration. what do you think here is happening that they are suspending until further review these scholarships that students are now using to attend these 19 schools? >> the question is why? why are we at this juncture and and in the history of the country, we are targeting? programs, that is, they're not discriminating against anyone. in fact, it is working to reverse historic discrimination against the very institutions and individuals communities that prevented those. institutions, individuals and communities from fully engaging and participating in our society. if you think about many of the 1890 land grant. schools, there substantial number of them that were created never received their federal appropriation, denied the money from the states. although the states received the moneys over decades, and they're going to target those very same institutions based on some theory that is harming other students or discriminating against other students. it is. it is turning the concept of in a socie

george w bush got us into a harebrained war in iraq, and then tried to privatize social security while letting our financial system drive smack into the great recession. and george h.woverned his way into a one term presidency because of the economy. is there a case to be made in that way? look, history tells us these republican policies have not worked well. >> all of that can be true. but democratic policies did work. and democrats made that argument under joe biden and kamala harris, and a lot of voters didn't believe them or us and so. >> didn't feel it. >> well, that's that's the thing. voters need to feel like you're fighting for them. it's not an intellectual argument all the time. it's a very emotional one. and so i, i do believe that and i think to james carville's point, there are tremendous examples of democrats being able to govern better. but what i think is the case is that there are a lot of voters on the ground that are struggling. they are suffering. and one of the things that democrats can do is support them. it doesn't have to be under the flag of the democratic party. but if you have people in your family concerns about folks being deported, crea

. >> remember back in 1991 when george h.w. >> bush named. >> clarence thomas to that seat.e's, you know, he's the oldest justice at age 76, the longest serving justice on the current bench. and it's donald trump did not choose him. but donald trump has embraced him. and during pam bondi swearing in ceremony yesterday, he talked about how he realized that clarence thomas was this conservative rock star. and he said, they love you, and i love you, too. and i love i love your wife. he called her incredible. and, you know, so, so excellent in what she does. but what donald trump was able to do with his three appointees, neil gorsuch, brett kavanaugh and amy coney barrett was to sort of embolden clarence thomas's conservatism. so they've kind of formed a great partnership, all moving the court more to the right. dana. >> yeah, i think, um, that point in your story where you're talking about how trump is a bit obsessed with clarence thomas's, thomas's star power amongst the conservatives was interesting. i mean, trump loves people who have star power, loves people who love him. a

i should say that my to experience talking one on one with the president was, president george h.w. bush in, the oval office, i was being introduced by then administrator riley because of work i was doing that led to the clean air act amendments. so to allow this trading and administrator riley at this moment, that was such a big deal for me to meet the president said that i want you to meet my friend mr. bob stevens you got my last name wrong and my first name wrong. but of course with the president i couldn't take moment to interrupt. there are a lot of pivotal moments that are described. your book, i mean, going way, way back long before we get to paris. indeed, you know, before copenhagen, that matter. and then durban, which very important. right. what came out of the durban conference, the parties. can you describe maybe just choose one or perhaps two, you know, pivotal moments in the negotiations that if it hadn't gone the way it did, it would have been quite different? well, i think actually you just you just touched on the two. the two camps that i would that i would think about

also had one moment he said, this will not be a read my lips moment, of course, referring to george h.w. bush about raising taxes. he said he would not cut social security, medicare or medicaid, which of course begs the question how do you get a budget passed without touching those entitlements? boris. >> yeah, a very important question for congressional republicans to answer. jeff zeleny live for us at the white house. thank you so much. let's turn now to cnn's renÉ marsh. rene maye musk said a number of things that were interesting. he specifically seemed to try to lay some charm on these cabinet officials. what did you make of that? >> you know, what i thought was interesting was that it had the feel of at times he was almost lecturing these cabinet officials about what the goals are and what needed to be done on the agency level. and, and at one point he was asked if it was his expectation when he posts a directive on x, that cabinet secretaries will follow that order because, as you know, boris, many cabinet secretaries is essentially told their employees not to comply with the maye musk

i mark up to grow, to talk about george h.w. bush and probably my favorite two episodes taken together, kind of back to back were episodes about ford and nixon. and for ford i talked to richard norton smith and for nixon i talked to rick perlstein and the reason i liked those two episodes so much, back to back as they talked about the same material, they talked a lot about the pardon, ford's pardon nixon, but they talked about the about the same incident from a very different perspectives. delve into that more and that defining moment for those two men. yeah mean it was certainly the defining moment of ford presidency the pardon itself and obviously dealt with the defining moment of the nixon presidency and. you know what's so interesting about the two different perspectives is richard horton smith, who is for's biographer and actually eulogized ford at funeral. and i believe at one point was the director of the ford presidential and library. you he has a view that the pardon was one of the most selfless acts. you know, one of those

george. >> h.w. bush and others, that what it cost us to protect a worker was greater in terms of its impact on the taxpayer and on the economy. so we know they're inflationary. now, as to whether or not this is a good negotiating. >> strategy, that's another story. >> steve just said they're focused on fentanyl. i kind of kind of. >> ironic. >> by the way, there would not be. >> a tariff. >> on the imports of fentanyl that the syndicates or the bad guys in mexico perpetuate. and i grew up in mexico. i was a trade negotiator with mexico. spanish is my first language because i grew up in mexico. i know the economy well. putting 10,000 troops on the border. my guess is they will be infiltrated by. >> the syndicates. >> there certainly will be a lot of effort on behalf of. >> the drug gangs to. >> make friends with the federales. >> who are going to be. >> charged the 10,000 of them with ferreting out fentanyl. so you have to. keep these. >> things in perspective. >> and maybe that's why the president gave h

george h.w. bush, i guess, dealt with it with ronald reagan.ombination of this drives the media crazy, and we really would like this guy to stay around forever because no one has been able to take the ideas we have, take them out of congress and implement them the way donald trump has. >> yeah, absolutely. differentiate what was happening at cpac for all those years and very much bringing it into the mainstream. dave weigel, thanks for joining us. and we'll see you later on morning joe. and still ahead, we're going to tell you about the totally different technique one man used to win the lottery. i'm taking notes way too early is coming right back. >> there's a lot going on. there's a lot going on every day. you are the only person who has the power to effectively fire mayor eric adams and remove him from this position. are you feeling differently about that responsibility? what are you expecting from the trump administration on ukraine? what do you make of this existential question about whether or not court rulings are going to be treated as

ultimately closes this deal, he is worried about having, or he says he's not going to have a george h.w. bush moment. >> this will not be read my lips. it won't be read my lips anymore. we're not going to touch it now. we are going to look for fraud. i'm sure you're okay with that. like people that shouldn't be on. >> yeah, well. >> you even saw mike. >> johnson say we're not going to cut benefits for people that are, quote, rightly deserved. right. >> well. >> what does that include? >> right. i mean, you can say broadly terms, but. >> like maybe there will. >> be. >> cuts to some benefits. i also say republicans are a bit confused about what trump actually wants. and as in terms of prioritizing. >> his legislative agenda. >> and you see this going back and forth. mike johnson made very clear. he kept talking about bill. >> singular, whereas all the senate keeps talking. >> about bills, plural, because they want to get. done on defense and immigration package very. >> quickly and then move to. >> the tax cuts. >> um, mike johnson. >> is like, we. >> should. >> put this all in one big package

president of indonesia, suharto gave george h.w. bush a pet komodo dragon. they're running around, i swear to god. and they're running around the white house, and they didn't know what to do with it because, like, i mean, it's a venomous animal. like, you can, like, eat it, keep it as a pet, i don't know. so they gave it to the cincinnati zoo and it just lived, lived its life for decades, representing the government of indonesia. is in america an amazing place. it just got. >> to your point. there is a museum of diplomatic, diplomatic history in the in washington, d.c. so that pager presumably is going to end up in that museum. >> been to this museum? >> yes. and sadly, it's closed until 2026. it's doing some rehab right now, but that. >> ping pong table that was given to obama, by the way, seen here, continue. >> that pager is going to be on display, i believe. and so everybody will get to see it. >> 1,400 pound block of cheese given to thomas jefferson. >> the cherry blossoms here in washington along the tidal basin were a gift from the japanese government

. >> for those of you who are maybe too young, that is a reference to, uh, george h.w. bush, who said, read my lips, no new taxes. and then there were. and then he lost. this is in response to a question about medicaid and the cuts that were involved are part of the broader blueprint that the house republicans passed yesterday. he said, again, there will not be cuts. but the question that was not asked, which is your question and all of our questions, is if you're not going to make cuts to medicaid, where are you going to get the cuts to reduce the deficit elsewhere? but but i think that that is going to be a moment that people are going to bookmark. >> yeah. >> and particularly. >> republicans who are going to be on the other end of these questions about how are you cutting $880 billion? uh, and why are you giving all of this money to. corporations and rich people? that's been, uh, the argument that democrats have made. it's a pretty good argument for them to make and take to average americans.thou' be cuts, but we will eliminate waste, fraud and abuse. right? so, you know,
