is this a situation that all of fighting going on between chuck schumer or jamie harrison gets better if democrats put more points on the board legislatively? >> certainly if this were making some gains legislatively that could help but arguably people keep talking about if they could only get it across the board, the goal line. well, there are significant accomplishments by the democrats. people don't care or they're not moved by it. i mean, that's the bottom line here. they can say they passed record amount of money for covid relief, they can talk about the infrastructure bill. biden's numbers are still in the tank. so something has to change and getting back to the dnc, you know, that's what jamie harrison wanted to have influence over. hey, something has got to give here, let me have a little more say in the direction of messaging and directing of resources and, you know, that is the clash right now with the white house. >> josh, democrats across the spectrum i think see this impending supreme court nomination battle if it is indeed a battle as an opportunity to reset, get the par

. >> dnc chairman jamie harrison is fighting back on critics say he is failing at his job.series of weekend tweets heroinson denied nbc report cites unnamed sources that he wants to quit. only in d.c. can you break a fundraising record and have folks complain it isn't enough. and added if you expect me to go away or roll into a ball or whimper you picked the wrong one. >> this d. on mila pell it stands for democrat. >> became chairman last year after losing against lindsey graham. while there are reports of tension between harrison, the white house, at least one top democrat is coming to his defense. >> i think he is a exactly what we need for this party at this particular juncture. jim harrison is there. he will never run. >> with midterms looming, democrats are scrambling to hold on to their congressional majority. a recent gallup survey found fewer americans identifying with the democratic party. giving the g.o.p. its largest advantage in more than 25 years. >> this has been an epic failure of a year for joe biden. >> he came in promising that he would unite the country.

joining me now, jamie harrison, chair of the democratic national committee. mr. chairman, let me go right to it. i read your op-ed last week, published a day before the president delivered his voting rights speech in atlanta which i attended, and in it, you relate your experience of voting for the first time with your grandfather who, of course, lived through jim crow. you bring it forward in the piece relating your recent experience, voting with your eldest son for the first time. i think it's missed just how much the vote has meant to black americans for generations. as a black man from south carolina where i have roots, my great grandfather, i found, was enslaved there. i must add, you are now tasked with guiding the democratic party through this period of unheralded voter restriction, aimed largely at black voters. i can imagine the weight it holds for you. but you're also watching members of your own party impede voter protections by defending jim crow senate rules whether they acknowledged that legacy or not, and i guess i wanted -- at what point does the p

. >>> jamie harrison, i'm coming to you.to know what you think of the president calling out these 16 republicans. i'll read their names here. it was senator mcconnell, grassley, shelby, crapo, collins, burr, imhoff, grant, boseman-capito, moran and wicker who in 2006 put their name and put their vote behind the reauthorization of the voting rights act. what has changed? >> well, listen, nicole, not only did all of these folks -- and i was a young staffer on the hill when the voting rights act was reauthorized under a republican president with the republican house and a republican senate. and this bill, the john lewis bill, is not very different from the one bill that they voted for. and i guess if you research these people and you look back on next month is black history month, look at their tweets during that month. look at the tweets that they will have and the releases that they will put out on the martin luther king holiday or when john lewis passed away, all claiming the greatness of these individuals and how america's

how do you translate that but avoid becoming like a jamie harrison in south carolina. >> well, the numberst is possible. it's already been done here in louisiana. we can win. i ran in a congressional race last year. we spent very little money on tv and we came within 1,500 votes of making it into a congressional runoff because we had a powerful grassroots game in this community. what we believe is in a by air strategy, talk to people on-air, radio and all those things but bay ground also, getting out into the community and letting them know we're going to bring louisiana from the 50th rank straightforward. there's nowhere to go but up from here. >> gary chambers, thank you so much for joining us. greatly appreciate your time. >>> senator mitch mcconnell is in hot water after his controversial comments this week. was it a froiden slip? we're going to let you decide. that's next. we're going to let ♪ liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty ♪ only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty ♪ that's next. real cowboys get customized car insurance with liberty mutual, so we only pay

you are getting national attention opinion how do you translate that but avoid booking like a jamie harrisonunning against a high-profile republican but ultimately losing? >> well, the numbers in south carolina and the number in louisiana are different. we have a democrat as our governor. that means that it is possible, it's already been done here in louisiana that we can win. i ran in a congressional race last year. we spent very little monday on tv and we came within 1,500 votes of making it to a congressional runoff because we have a powerful grass roots name in this community. we're going to spread that out over all 54 parrishes. we believe by air strategy, talking to people on tv, radio and on ground also, meeting voters where they are, getting out in the community and letting them know we're going to bring louisiana from the 50 the ranked state forward, there's nowhere to go but up from here. >> thank you so much for joining us. greatly appreciate your time. >>> senator mitch mcconnell is in hot water after his comments this week. was it a freudian slip? we'll let you decide. that's ne

bill, you heard what jamie harrison had to say about this.this week you tweeted the six main strands of the trump coup attempt in which you said the conspiracy theories, the lawsuits, the fake federal investigations, stop the steal whips up the base, fake electors and objectors, and pressure on state and local officials. in fairness you write this as the main strands of the trump coup attempt which would be very simple for republicans to say, that's not us. we don't stand for that stuff. that's garbage. we have something else. joe biden did make the point today, we don't have a real republican platform that they have presented. >> excellent piece. summarizing just to give credit where credit is due. look, if they say we did a good job, people don't quite see how good a job we did and those republicans don't stand for anything, they will not do well. the normal thing that happens in an off year election, grievances of some sort, not as great as they thought it would be november two years ago so they vote against the party that has the white ho

in an interview with vox he said this, jamie harrison raised over $100 million only to lose his senate race to lindsey graham by 10 points. amy mcgrath runs for senate in kentucky and raises over $90 million only to get crushed by mitch mcconnell. they were always going to lose those races but democrats keep doing this stupid stuff. they're too emotional. democrats obsess over high-profile races they can't win because that's where all of the attention is. we are addicted to hope fluorosalicic causes. james continues, what about the secretary of state in wisconsin or the attorney general race in michigan? how much money are democrats and progressives around the country sending to those candidates. i'm telling you, if democrats are worried about voting rights and election integrity, then these are the sorts of races they should support and volunteer for because this is where the action is and where things will be decided. joe, james never mincing words, talking to his fellow democrats in this new vox interview. >> he's so right. this is something that i'm going to start talking about the

jamie harrison tweeted messages after a report suggested he and the who us were not finding common groundrty chairman a year ago and appears to admit not everyone is thrilled with him. only in d.c. can you break a fundraising record and have folks complain it's not enough. he said to unnamed sources if you expect me to go away or roll into a ball and whimper, you picked the wrong one. fewer americans are identifying with the party but a lot of people are curious what it means for the party even after the midterms if democrats have a good year or bad year, we have to wait and see. >> sandra: mark meredith in washington, thank you. rich. >> rich: bengals and rams punched their way to the super bowl. a better turned 20 bucks into a half million dollars to guessing the exact scores of both games. so cool, sandra. >> sandra: go bengals, go joey, and congratulations to our own bill as well on a big win. i'm sandra smith. >> rich: i'm >> martha: thank you. good afternoon. i'm trace gallagher in for martha maccallum. joe rogan speaks out about attempts to silence him on spotify. and first, to the
