"hugo chavez used dominion voting machines to steal venezuela elections. is his bust in the oval office biden's way of telling us, 'ha ha, yes i stole it?'" and that would be alarming, were it not for the fact that joe biden did not put a bust of hugo chavez in the oval office. he put a bust of cesar chavez in the oval office. cesar chavez was an american civil rights leader and labor organizer. he is a totally different guy. it happens. you know who i always get confused? ben and aretha franklin. which one had the kite? meanwhile, over at fox news, they don't know what to do. they have nothing to criticize yet. so they're focused on the idea that joe biden is not reaching across the aisle. is as if he should be. yesterday, maria bartiromo made in making this case, made what has to be the least self-aware statement of the year so far. >> you need to hear from the commander-in-chief to say stop the hate, stop the nonsense, stop the blacklisting, and stop doing what you're doing to trump allies. we'll see if he says it. >> jimmy: does she hear herself?

"dali, i'm all for having fun, but clocks don't melt, my man. although the idea that rudy doesn't know what the case is about would not surprise me. i'm sure walking rudy through a case is like watching "inception" with your grandpa.

new president joe biden so is the courtroom even more than before groaned 0 for american politics hugo chavez has been looking into. donald trump is the most acquitted president in the u.s. history and no one worked harder to win him the title than the democrats and the realization is doing on them but what we saw in that senate today was that cowardly group of republicans who patently have no options because they were afraid to defend their job respect the institution in which they served. the senators have decided to hang their hat on jurisdictional grounds which are not based on evidence which are not based on the facts and they will have to be judge that a ballistic meltdown is not something you'd expect to hear from a party whose candidate won the presidential election a democrat ego side which even stung through joe biden's psyche and it'll take more than a few cute white house lawn decorations to heal that wound what was meant to be a tool of checks and balances system transcended into one party's vendetta against a political opponent the order call of the pietschmann now before the se

americas, which was about latin america and the caribbean and we would have these discussions and hugo chavez would take off and everyone would close their ears and whatever. but then, almost a week or two weeks later, we would go to the asia-pacific economic council. apex. c. there, it is the pacific rim countries, chile, up the pacific rim, all the way to canada and all the way out through japan, china and korea. and the conversation was completely different. it was about global trade, freeing trade. i thought in that sense, the countries had more in common with their asian counterparts than their latin american counterparts. sec. shalala: it's how they -- is how they perceive themselves significant there? sec. rice: i think it is. if you look at places like chile, now quite developed and anyways, columbia, getting there -- in many ways, columbia, getting there in terms of development, a country like brazil is interesting because on the one hand, it is one of the leaders in the global economy, but with huge income distributional difficulties that keep it on the developing countryside. count

that's why hugo chavez had it created in the first place. the machine is easily accessible to hackers. there's a video on the net that will explain to you how a kid with a cell phone can hack one of these voting machines. >> this is all garbage, right? and now some of these players are being sued. but inside the white house that night, the scenes were even more insane. powell telling the president about this global scheme to fix the election. >> right. >> what did she say and how did the white house lawyers respond to that? >> well, she was waving around these affidavits, which were complete garbage. and you know, she had lost 60 cases in court, right? so, the white house staff secretary pointed out to her, said you haven't won a seasoningal case. everything you show falls over when you're asked to provide the evidence. and then she goes on this rant about how, well, the reason we -- you know, we didn't get a fair hearing because all of the judges are corrupt. so, all judges? even the ones we appointed? because remember a lot of these judges

we would have these discussions and hugo chavez would take off and everybody would sort of close their ears and whatever. but then almost a week or two weeks later, we would go to the asia pacific economic council, apec, and there it's the pacific rim countries of chile and up at the pacific rim all the way to canada and all the way out through japan and china and korea. and the conversation was completely different. it was about global trade, it was about freeing trade. so i actually always thought in that sense, the countries had more in common with their asian counterparts than they had with their latin american counterparts. >> is how they perceive themselves a fate of development there? >> i think it is. because if you look at places like chile, not quite developed in many ways, colombia getting there in terms of development, a country like brazil is interesting because on the one hand, it is leading the global -- one of the leaders in the global economy but with huge income, distribution difficulties that keep it more on the developing country side. if you look at some of the poo

met with venezuelan president hugo chavez in his first sit-down interview in the united states.resident, your assessment of president bush, of the invasion and occupation of iraq? and do you think if it weren't iraq, it would have been venezuela? >> it is clear the us government -- first they try to get the venezuelan oil. the coup they stage. a motivated coup. once you have the control of oil -- [indiscernible] they felt in venezuela so they try to attack iraq. amy: in 2007, then cnn lou dobbs was interviewed by juan gonzalez and i on democracy now! juan: the question is, there's a huge disparity between the economic levels in mexico and economic levels in the united states and you have properly said many times on your show that american companies are creating the problems rather than helping to alleviate the problems. all that would be needed to do is raise economic level in mexico and the entire legal immigration problems would decline under this country. -- illegal immigration problems would decline in this country. close are you telling me what we agree upon? we don't agree

for him that think he legitimately won, and as the president in exile down in mar-a-lago and that hugo chavezle the election from him. no wonder they want him to run again in 2024. this is the problem that disconnects from reality. you mentioned the cpac speech. they set it up for him where his first speech after the presidency will come right after the announcement of the winner of the cpac 2024 straw pole, the very important straw poll. trump will be able to declare victory. he wants to declare victory in something. in orlando he will be declaring victory in the cpac straw poll. i think that is a reflection of where the movement is right now. >> wow. way to ruin the suspense. the guests agreed to stay with us as we fit in a break. coming up, elections have consequences. the biden white house sees firsthand the difficulty of managing a slim majority in the senate. we will talk about that after the break. l talk about that aft the break. the median. there was nothing i could do.

secret jewish space laser that invented covid and hacked the election, along with bill gates and hugo chavez there, space laser, eating your lox and drinking your manischewitz. republicans aren't going to suddenly become reasonable it didn't happen in 2012, and it's not gonna happen now. take a cue from incoming senate budget chairman bernie sanders, who was asked on sunday about the gop's bad faith call for bipartisanship, and immediately brushed it aside >> is it a mistake for democrats >> martha, the issue is not bipartisanship, or not the issue is, are we going to address the incredible set of crises and the pain and the anxiety which is in this country? you know what, i don't care what anyone says, we've got to deal with this pandemic of all, he's right. second, of course bernie doesn't care what anybody says he has the energy of a grandpa who insists on shoveling the sidewalk in his bathrobe "grandpa, at least put on some pants. "i don't care what anybody says. i'm going out there in my robe and my slippers, and if anyone has a problem with that, they can talk to the mittens, because t

people still tell me they think dominion rigged those machines, with hugo chavez from venezuela -- that is not true -- and a null organizations that promoted that retracted. he scheduled the rally january 6th just when the transfer of power was to take place, and he brought together a crowd, but a portion of that was transformed into a mob, when they brought into the capitol, it was clear that he wished the lawmakers be intimidated. he continued to basically sanction the mob being there. not until later that he actually asked them to leave. all of that points to a motive and a method and that is wrong, he should be held accountable. >> you're already facing backlash in your home state, the executive committee of the louisiana gop voted unanimously to censure you last night. and they added this, senator bill cassidy, you no longer represent the majority of people in louisiana who recently voted you into office. you're part of the problem with d.c. don't expect a warm welcome when you come home to louisiana. your response? >> i have the privilege of having the facts before me. and being a

you belong, joseph mccarthy, george wallace, ross perot, howard dean, sarah palin, hugo chavez in venezuelarine le pen of france, someone from hungary, and gyre bolsonaro from brazil? of course, the answer is they have all been described as populists. a quick google search this week for the word populism returned nearly 25 million hits. by the way, this is more than double the number that i got when i did the same google search back in 26. clearly, the term which based in the 1890's is still very much with us today. i will just hold up a few examples from recent american history to illustrate this. obama hones populist message in nevada. biden stokes working class populists. that was from the 2012 campaign. paul ryan, a populist. met romney. really? this might suggest to us the term has been so overused and is meaningless. at the very least, it must be a very malleable term to be applicable to such a broad array of public figures. so what is populism? what does it mean to say someone is a populist or that he or she made a populist appeal to some audience? here is my handy dandy four-pa rt d

that think he legitimately won and is the president in exile down in mar-a-lago and that you know, hugo chavezhe election from him. so no wonder they would want him to run again in 2024. this is the problem when you're that disconnected from reality. you mentioned his cpac speech. they set this up for him where his first speech after the presidency will come right after the announcement of the winner of the cpac 2024 straw poll, that very important straw poll. trump will get to declare victory. after losing the election he's so desperate, as david said, to be a winner, to be a narcissist, he wants to declare victory in something when he comes back this week. so in orlando he'll be declaring victory in the cpac straw poll. and that i think is a reflection of sort of where the movement is right now. >> wow. way to ruin the suspense. our guests have both agreed to stay with us while we pit in a break. coming up for us, elections have consequences. the biden white house sees firsthand the difficulty now of managing a slim majority in the senate. we'll talk about that after the break. we'll talk ab

they watch other people get sued or just too embarrassing to go down the full, like, the ghost of hugo chavez, broke into the machines and wired it for joe biden, that is too much. but now it's well a lot of people believe it. because you told them that. but they're using that now as the predicate. >> the failure to squash that lie despite countless reports demonstrating there is no existence of widespread voter fraud left it lying around like a loaded weapon to borrow from matzu for the modern it rags of the republican party and for trump to use. and that's why it's so important today. we saw the hearings with, you know, judge garland who is the nominee to be attorney general. turning the page is really about refreshing a look at the rule of law. and what it really means. and part of the rule of law is restoring the department of justice to its role in protecting civil rights. things like voter -- voter suppression. since 2013 when the supreme court issued the shelby county versus holder case, the department of justice has had to fight a rear guard action and then after trump came in fight n

hugo chavez of venezuela? marina panda france -- hungry. and bolsonaro, from brazil.of course, the answer is, they have all been described as populists. now, a quick google search this week, before the were populism, returned nearly 25 million hits. by the, way this is more than double the number that i got when i did the same google search, back in 2016. clearly, the term, which dates to the 1890s, it's still very much with us today. i will just pull up a few examples, from a fairly recent american history to illustrate this obama homes populist message in the biden stokes working class populism. paul ryan, a populist. mitt romney? really? now, this might suggest to us has been over use -- at the very least, it must be a very malleable term. to be applicable to such a broad array of public figures. so, what is populism? what does it mean to say someone is a populist? or that he or she made a populist appeal? to some audience? well here, is my handy dandy for part definition. first, populism as we understand, it today, is not really an ideology, but rather it is a way

take her word fo facebook page, it's only because bill gates gave her password to the ghost of hugo chavezgood enough for me. "mee-maw, are you satisfied? mee-maw, i will help you with your corset but i'm telling you, there's no colonel coming over tonight! mee-maw, that was a movie we watched! not that one, pee-paw, that was 'inception.' you two! but the dumbest excuse for refusing to condemn greene came from newly minted alabama apparently as dumb as his namees tuberville told cnn he hadn't seen greene's posts, because -- and this is real, a real excuse -- "the weather's been bad. i haven't even looked at what all she's done i'd have to hold back a statement on that. traveling in this weather, it's been a little rough looking at any news or whatever." look, i really don't want to repeat any negative stereotypes about the south, but you're not doing alabama any favors when as a senator, you claim you can't watch the news because of the weather. do you still are have rabbit ears on your tv? "i haven't looked at what she's done because the gossipy pole cat who tells me the news has been hib

on the 19th, rudy giuliani and sidmy powell laid out their theory the election was stolen by hugo chavezns. cpac a powerful conference in conservatives. it's been fractured and sponsors left and more traditional republicans sat it out. >>> usa today in suffolk university polled trump supporters and found a pleuralty of them would leave the republican party if trump formed his own party and 27 said they would stick out and equal amount said they're not sure. we'll track what's happening with the biden administration today and ppp loans as we talk business coming up in ron twitter and fiernd me at scott mcgrew. >> thanks so much, scott. >>> 5:49. live look at the san francisco airport. don't expect the number of air travelers to start soaring any time soon. certainly most industry insiders do not. sfo leaders believe it may take six years for the aviation industry to fully recover from the pandemic-related fallout. that's what they tell the chronicle. sfo had 57 million passengers come through there 2019, had 71% drop last year amounting to about 16 million. >>> play ball. that's the rulin

were saying things like there's a secret back door and they can switch with nobody knowing and hugo chavezup and they had all kinds of allegations that injured their business all over the world. and what we now know, despite all the allegations about i can prove it in michigan, like rudy giuliani said, smart technology wasn't anywhere except los angeles county and none of it was true. their allegation was there was a reckless disregard for the truth. while these cases are difficult, this one looks to me like it could be a winner. >> what about $2.7 billion figure? how does an enormous sum like this effect a case like this? will smart-matic have a tough time proving this case because of this amount of money? >> short answer is no. damages and proof are different. but it does give fox the hee bee gee bees. perhaps the most enduring aspect of the trump administration has been this causalness of lies that media and other enablers have thought, it's okay. we can do this. and defamation, of course, is society's prescribed legal route for addressing it. and especially when the damage is large. an

they claim that it was created in part by hugo chavez in venezuela with the express purpose of tamperingse election outcomes. none of that is true. and so on the merits of the case, they have a very strong case here. my guess is what will happen is they will settle. that fox news will choose to settle the case rather than go all the way to rt could. but the financial damage will be substantive even for a company like fox news. >> so i guess the big question is here as well, the fallout from all this. the precedent that it sets. i want to play for you some sound of rudy giuliani being surprised on his radio show of a disclaimer that was put up. take a listen. >> the views, assumptions and opinions expressed by former u.s. attorney, former attorney to the president of the united states and new york city mayor rudy giuliani, his guests and call orders his program are strictly their own and donal necessarily represent the pips, beliefs or policies of wabc radio. >> i would have thought they would have told me about that before doing what they just did. rather insulting. and gives you a sense

people are saying hugo chavez founded this company. and all the bizarre theories. you see those two people right there? those two people are attorneys. they not only took the bar, they practiced law. they had to understand, willie, that they couldn't defame a company but they did it knowingly, willingly, repeatedly. right? he sells pillows. so he's still in trouble pause he just kept lying about it. i'm sure mr. pillow has lawyers that told him he was lying about it. for these individuals, especially these lawyers, whoa! i think a hard rain is going to fall. >> yeah. that's who i was really asking about with chuck. are people like rudy giuliani and sidney powell, who went out and tried to make legal arguments again and again before microphones, on tv, and in courts even, what is their exposure? he says if you're a public company or a public figure, people can say whatever they want about you. but you can't make up lies that defame and hurt the bottom line of the business. was it $2.7 billion worth of business? i'm not sure about that. you don't have to take it from

researchers have seen in other states countries i talk cuba venezuela let me reminded you i interviewed hugo chavezve competition we don't have directors we don't have anyone producing anything that is what we have to avoid in this country that is why i went to congress, to be that voice to tell the americans we still have american, needs to stay in place. maria: i think you are making a big difference just talking about it congresswoman we are so happy there you are thanks very much we will see you soon. >> congresswoman mar -- maria salazar. some say this is my greatest challenge ever. but i've seen centuries of this. with a companion that powers a digital world, traded with a touch. the gold standard, so to speak ;) it's time for the ultimate sleep number event on the new sleep number 360 smart bed what if i sleep hot? ...or cold? no problem, with temperature balancing you can sleep better together. can it help keep me asleep? absolutely, it intelligently senses your movements and automatically adjusts to keep you both effortlessly comfortable. will it help me keep up with mom? you got this. so

hug, and then it becomes more dangerous either directly because of the direction they take like hugo chavezr he inspires, hey, that wasn't too bad what he did and giving us an opening to advance with our goals. so i think the united states has a democracy brand which has been severely challenged and damaged by donald trump. and we have here an opportunity -- it's not the last opportunity -- to pull it back together and essentially say to the world this was an aberration, something that happened, we're going forward. going back to what we are. not perfect, but certainly champions of democracy. i think if republicans say it once again with just the mountain of evidence against him, it would be discrediting to them. but i think to the united states of america even more so. >> fernando, thank you for being on the show. still ahead on "morning joe", dick durbin, new chairman of the senate judiciary committee and a juror in the trump impeachment trial. plus, the latest on covid relief as democrats appear to be going full steam ahead toward a party line vote. you're watching "morning joe". we'll b
