on the floor of the house of representatives. extreme maga republicans in the house have no real agenda when it comes to making life better for everyday americans. their agenda is to cut social security, cut medicare, hold the united states economy hostage and try and impose a 30% national sales tax on everyday americans. which will dramatically increase costs on 90% of the american people. that is the extreme maga republican agenda. they have no plan, they have no vision, they have no ideas when it comes to making life better for everyday americans. and that is what today's circus on the floor of the house of representatives will once again reveal. we're still waiting for them to put forward a spending plan so we can debate it. show us your plan. instead, they bring to the floor of the house of representatives today a resolution on socialism. to condemn some dictators that we all condemn. but understand, the goal of this phony, fake and fraudulent resolution is just to somehow provide cover for treedges maga republicans -- for extreme maga republicans t

jake, there is still uncertainty whether house republicans will take some symbolic gesture to condemn the president's actions. remember, the house majority on the republican side, very narrow. they can't lose more than four republican votes to approve anything. at the moment they don't have an agreement on what any resolution could look like. i'm told at this moment they're still debating on whether to proceed on any vote to push back against the biden administration here. kevin mccarthy right now meeting with his top leaders in his office as they chart out the strategy and decide how to proceed on this issue. >> manu, just to clarify, is there a specific part of the country where they think or say specifically this is where it should have been shot down? what are they talking about? >> they simply don't know, jake, at the moment. there's still so much uncertainty about exactly where this could have safely been shot down. they seem to believe that there was an opportunity to shoot down this balloon at some point through its journey across the united states where it would not have enda

this is why republicans voted three times in president trump was in office with democrats to raise the debt ceiling. and now when president biden is in the white housesimply want to use it as a political club. look, we have been here before back in 2011. republicans won a majority in the house they immediately winter about the business of threatening the debt ceiling. vicesi president biden was assigned to bring together group to negotiate as part of that group bicameral bipartisan. what we learn then is what we know now. republicans don't care about the deficit or debt. they say that is what they care about but if they really did, why would they pass a $2 trillion tax cut that's not paid for? why would one of the first actions of the house of representatives to block from the irs needs to go after very wealthy tax sheets to collect taxes from very wealthy people who rdo that money. because by denying the irs that capability, by long the wealthy tax cheats off the hook according to nonpartisan they are increasing the deficit and debt by well over $100 billion and they don't care about that. what they want to do is/important investments in the americ

so that took off the pressure because right after that house republicans voted to remove omar from houseoreign affairs. but he is followed around by a group of reporters on the hill. he doesn't have any committee so it's not clear what his role is. >> it seems more likely a holding pattern not really one place or the other. >> talking about the house the senate comes in they will startco their day is a traditionally do after presidents' day reading george washington's farewell address and senator lankford from oklahoma will be that. >> and then to have biden attend a caucus for the plans to talk about running for reelection and the senate will be catching up there is an expectation of a briefing on the spy balloons. that also classified documents similar to the house. >> what is mental health evaluation and treatment? >> saying they will take some time off after that focusing on mental health and obviously we saw republicans and democrats talking about the importance of mental health and that stigma and people in high-powered positions to stay quiet and not open up so it is interesting t

republicans are using it for leverage with the biden white house trying to exact concessions of undeterminednot even sure what the republicans want. >> denmark doesn't have this republican house majority that just went 15 rounds to elect a house speaker. i think this is a real concern even for republicans in washington. i was there yesterday talking to them about this. you happened in 2011. i think the concern is this is they don't know what it is that republicans want. republicans don't even know fully exactly where they're willing to make these cuts. >> it's like negotiating with a, you know, a kidnapper or hostage taker and they don't have demands. you're not sure what you're supposed to give them. i thought biden's move was prudent to just say okay, what do you want? so which apparently the answer is -- um, let me get back to you. we'll see. >> okay. so the argument now, you think it sounds like it's a good idea to get rid of the debt ceiling. >> i think at some point we need to recognize the consequences of defaulting is so catastrophic that, you know, it's unfortunately a lesson we lea

house republicans have said they plan to investigate how the biden administration is funding things on a variety of projects. how concerned are you republicans will be looking under the roof of what the transportation department is doing when it comes to allocating money, what safeguards do you have about the solyndra of the biden administration? 's >> guest: good-faith oversight can be helpful. we are funding thousands and thousands of projects which i'm sure some proportion of those projects will run into issues and a healthy amount of oversight make sure these dollars are well spent and accountable he spent. we are prepared for that. what i'm less enthusiastic about is ideologically driven efforts to clawback money altogether, to cut investments, needed spending at the moment we finally turned a corner on underinvestment that has really set up our country for trouble in recent years, or the effort to basically pretend that paying attention to things like safety or climate or the kinds of jobs we are creating is somehow extraneous and you see this. i pointed out an obvious fact which

what house republicans will do with this information. they have been promising to try to get to the bottom of what's been going on. we heard from james comer, the chair of house government oversight he believes it is possible the president's son, hunter biden, may have been in close proximity to the document. when you have searches like this you wonder what will it trigger in terms of a chain of events what was happening at the homes over the last several years and what material was found. david mentioned off the top this is something the president goes to these homes all the time. it is pretty much every weekend either in wilmington, camp david or his home at the beach. why now as opposed to weeks and months earlier? >> bill: let's press recall on your brain here. go back over the past month. where did he spend the weekend? we know he was at camp david this past weekend. was he in wilmington the week before that? >> dana: yes, i think so. >> bill: when was the last time he was at the beach house? >> they kind of all blur together. a lot

, issues that are important to seniors and we have heard a lot of rhetoric from the white house that republicanswould damage those programs, john. >> john: jacqui heinrich with a look ahead from the white house, thank you. >> china is the most challenging national security threat america has faced in 30 years. >> we saw the aggression even in my home state of south carolina. >> serious of china, our entire country needs to move faster. >> sandra: the last warning from the former commander in charge of the pacific fleet, sounding the alarm on china's growing threat at a hearing on capitol hill. this is not the first time this has happened. the pentagon admitted it failed to see previous spy flights and only found out about it through u.s. intel, and china has more launchers? what does that last point, what does that last point tell you? >> well, look, sandra, we are facing the largest and most serious enemy military build-up in modern history. the chinese navy is now larger than the u.s. navy, they are cranking out new ships at a rate of 5 to 1. their space force is launching more into space than

house ethics committee. a major victory for the new republican speaker kevin mccarthy. be removed from the house foreign affairs committee. moving on now to some important global news. some new russian missile strikes targeting civilians in eastern ukrainian sending plumes of smoke over the city of kramatorsk. our cnn correspondent fred pleitgen was near one apartment building close to that attack. >> we had just arrived on the scene, had parked our vehicles, gotten out of those vehicles when another missile struck in the exact building that we were parked in front of. so we heard a loud bang. there were obviously a lot of civilians there on the street. many of them then tried to take shelter. we did the same thing. we then went towards another building to try to take shelter there. and i saw another missile that then hit almost the exact location, obviously causing a huge explosion there leading to even more people trying to flee the scene. we then tried to run for cover, went for shelter, and then after a while tried to get out of there. but i think one of the things

so i think this will be some of the most important work of the house republican majority.s is about transparency and shining a spotlight. so this first open hearing is to set the tables. if you talk to elder americans, they are deeply concerned that federal agencies are targeting hard-working americans. and that there is two sets of rules. if you happen to have the last name clinton or biden, crimes are brushed under the rug. we have seen how the fbi and the department of justice have not addressed hunter biden's clear crimes and yet, at the same time, they are targeting conservatives and republicans because of your political beliefs. we see that in their targeting of parents. we see that in their targeting of whistleblowers in their own agencies who raise concerns. so, this is going to set the tables that this is an issue, this is important to address. and we are going to leave no stone unturned. i believe this is going to lead to bombshell reports the work of this subcommittee and ultimately lentil legislative reforms. >> brian: yeah. you need those whistleblowers, those

so i don't think it's on kevin mccarthy and the house republicans. it is on the democrats. nied a seat on the committee. that's up to the democrats. they get to make that choice, not the speaker of the house. >> harris: so what would you say, though, in terms of the comments that she has made? you said i won't defend them. she has to become a victim in order to try to defend them. what would you say when she is inside a committee hearing like that and you saw representative malliotakis saying some of the things omar is putting out as part of her job in that committee? >> well, it gives a great opportunity to draw the contrast, show the racism, show the bias, argue that out. i think if republicans pass this and take her off the committee they are doing the democrats a favor because she won't have the mouthpiece that she would have had otherwise. today's democratic party, there are a lot of them anti-jewish. don't believe that israel has the right to exist. overwhelming majority of democrats do, but there are some like her that really don't believe that. i think we should have

>> dana: hunter biden snubbing a request for documents from house republicans. will their next request to the president's son come in the form of a subpoena? it's possible. >> it will always be a last resort. but if our hand is forced, yeah, i think subpoenas will be issued. use the 3 ps: plan ahead by getting a va cash out home loan from newday. pay off your high-rate credit cards. pay yourself cash. in a world, where dry eye symptoms... keep... coming... back... inflammation in the eye might be to blame. feel the ache and burn! one man learns the truth... over-the-counter eye drops typically work by lubricating your eyes. they may provide temporary relief... but probably won't touch me! mwahaha! tell me there's another way... there's hope for lasting relief with xiidra! xiidra works differently targeting inflammation that can cause dry eye disease. xiidra, nooo! xiidra treats the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease. don't use if allergic to xiidra. common side effects include eye irritation, discomfort or blurred vision when applied, and unusual taste sensat

as critical to meeting americans where they are, moving to draw a clear contrast with a new house republicant medicare and social security to sunset. >> reporter: drawing a visceral response from republicans in the chamber and steadfastly claimed sbo entitlement reform off the table. the president naming names. >> rick scott from florida, the guy who ran the u.s. senate campaign, has a plan. i got his brochure here. he says all federal legislation sunsets every five years. ron johnson on social security and medicare, quote, we should transfer everything, so we have to consider everything every year. there is a senator named mike lee, a video of him saying, i am here right now to tell you one thing you probably never heard from a politician. it will be my objective to phase out social security, pull it up by its roots, get rid of it. >> reporter: republican outrage growing in the wake of biden's remarks. >> people are mad and for the president of the united states to come into the people's house and lie like he did about the economy -- >> reporter: and speaker kevin mccarthy seated behind bid

i think the president is going to be very stern on making sure both republicans in the house and the american people understand the obligations around the debt ceiling and really what can and should happen, which is if republicans want to have a debate and discussion about spending and if we want to do that as american people there's a budget and appropriations process we can do that. we can talk about wasteful spending. we can talk about big tax cuts, but there's a process for that that's outside of the debt limit and outside of what really hangs over an improving economy. and i think, look, in some ways joe biden is -- ran on being the grownup in the room, and i think joe biden and democrats are going to have to be the grownup in the room and show the american people what they're all about. now, that may not make some people on twitter happy. it may miss the opportunity to be overly snarky or point out different things, but i think the american people particularly when it comes to something as serious as the debt ceiling want to see a serious group dealing with it, and i think that'
