jeffries: there will be legislation to deal with the epidemic and e-cigarettes that are targeting young people, communities of color in a way that has devastating health consequences and of course, most importantly, as we will hear from momentarily, we heard from the lobbyists on the importance of the continued fight to protect health care for every day americans. our fight to protect people with pre-existing conditions to lower health care costs to increased access for every single american to high quality affordable health care is not a paper fight, but a fight with real-life consequences. that is why the presentation from the lobbyists earlier and their presence has been has been so meaningful to us because this is an administration that has attacked the health care of everyday americans from day one. and has resulted in the loss of tens of thousands of children from their health care providers in a meaningful way as a recent study just confirmed. we'll hear from them momentarily. but i'll yield to our vice chair. ms. clarke: i want to underscore what we heard from the president in t

jeffries. thank you, mr.an and director wray for your presence here today and your continuing service to the country. i think according to the fbi's website and your testimony earlier today, one of the highest priorities of the fbi is to deal with the impact that hate crimes have on the people of america, is that right? dir. wray: yes. counterterrorism is the number one priority of the fbi. rep. jeffries: and within that counterterrorism priority, domestic terrorism which leads to some of the hate crime incidents that we've seen, falls within that scope, is that right? dir. wray: yes. rep. jeffries: and i think each year the fbi releases a hate crimes statistics report, is that true? dir. wray: yes. rep. jeffries: and in the context of that report, i think you identify single bias incidents as an incident in which one or more criminal offenses are motivated by a particular bias, is that right? dir. wray: well, i haven't -- don't have the report in front of me, but that sounds consistent with my recollection.

and i think congressman jeffries is exactly right. there has to be an appeal to what has been a complicit, client, lick spittle republican congress who has allowed this president to run amuck to say that this attack by russia, by other hostile foreign powers on the sovereignty of the country cannot be abided, it cannot be abetted, it must be repudiated and it must be repudiated by america's political leadership regardless of their partisanship or party. >> which of the following republicans do you think might speak up against the president for apparently if not collaborating with the soviets, with the russians again, the former soviet kgb director, mr. putin, and not going the other way. would you think kevin mccarthy, the house leader will do it? do you think mitch mcconnell will do it? name a republican who has the stuff to tell the president you have to be attacking the russians for interfering with our elections, not keeping it secret. >> there is no evidence, sadly, chris, that any of them will put their oath of office ahead of t

leading off our discussion tonight is democratic congressman hakeem jeffries of new york. he's a house impeachment manager, a chairman of the democratic congress. we really appreciate it especially after your long hours of service as an impeachment manager. we really appreciate your joining us. i want to get your reaction today -- >> always great to be with you. >> the president's attacks were much more wide ranger after he got to the white house after the prayer breakfast. and he really let loose on all of you who participated ipadvance of the impeachment of the house and the senators who voted for it in the senate. what was your reaction to hearing this president come out that way today? >> what's clear to me there are millions of sunday school children all across the country who know far more about christian love and the bible than donald trump ever will. and he continues to disgrace his office. he did it in extraordinary fashion as it relates to his corrupt abuse of power as well as the obstruction of congress that he committed two impeachable offenses which resulted i

jeffries was spot-on. i give him credit for that, but this has been a pattern we've seen over and over and over again and i think it's deeply disturbing. >> so jonathan lemire, so much has happened. we started with this. there are many other things that happened yesterday that we could have started with. given the attorney general's comments later in the day, which we'll get to, but we've got a situation now where the president's appears to be issues quid pro quos in realtime on twitter. what are you hearing from the white house and from your sources in washington? >> yeah. doing so in plain sight. there's little attempt to cover this. we know the president has had sort of a contentious relationship with governor cuomo and most new york officials because most of democrat and a series of investigations the state has run in addition to what's going on in the house of representatives. that is something the president has been irritated about for a while. recall, of course, even renounced citizenship on the sta

again, herb jeffries was a matinee idol. he has a beautiful voice. he would sing. and you would see the same kind of things -- big chase scenes and fights and things like that. a little bit of romance. he was basically an icon. now, one of the things that came up, i was talking to someone a few minutes ago, herb jeffries died not too long ago. he lived a very long life. he told a story about seeing some whites and black boys playing in the alley or something like that. the little black boy was crying. and he said, why are you crying? those are my friends but they won't let me play cowboys with them because there weren't any black cowboys. he said that that was the inspiration for him doing these movies again on black cowboys. ok. ok. >> [inaudible] mike: you can still get some of these movies today. in reality, black boys played a really important role in the west. some left records. for example, there was a black cowboy by the name of sam jones washington. he was one of the cowboys, one of the black cowboys that was interviewed. in the late 1930's, the wpa went ou

garcia, lofgren, jeffries, it was the exact same thing and we get the color in the room. susan collins is taking excessive notes even now, when there's no reason to be taking notes. she's still doing it. each side is trying to pluck that one vote. >> both sides were blaming the other side for the fact that we're in this partsisan moment. if they agreed on anything, it was that this is a lamentably partisan moment. then when you listen to why and how they explain the partisanship, they began to diverge and they used history as a grab bag. of course i think -- i guess lawyers often do, but let me tell you that one side had history, if i may say this, on their side, the other side, not so much. the bipartisanship of the nixon period, which both sides have described, so i guess they agree, was a product of political courage. the republicans who decided to vote against richard nixon did so despite the fact that their leadership was telling them not to. they did so despite the fact they had death threats. we may think of this as the most partisan moment but the '70s were equall

. >> well, during the president's senate impeachment trial the trial art, hakeem jeffries of new york potential consequence cans of acquitting the president for abusing his power and soliciting a personal benefit. >> and if this senate were to say, that's acceptable, then precisely as was outlined in that question could take place all across america. the president could say, you're not going to get that money, mr. mayor, mrs. county executive, mrs. town supervisor, unless you you endorse me. the president could say that to any governor of our 50 states. that's unacceptable. that cannot be allowed to happen in our democratic republic. >> that is one of the heroes of the house -- the operation investigation into the senate trial, hakeem jeffries of new york and now the president is being accused of looking for a quid pro quo with the state of new york. he suggested a link between his administration's decision to bar new yorkers from joining trusted traveller programs like global entry and the state's investigations into his personal finances, get it. quid pro quo. they shouldn't be doin

james jeffries, former ambassador, special representative for syria. to what extent do you think he has a loud voice in this administration? to what extent do you think the issue is breaking through to the highest level? >> i have great respect for ambassador jeffrey. he has put more energy into this role than any of his predecessors have for the last five years. a clear determination to uphold the principles the us embraced very early on. he has -- i don't want to speak to him but he has one big challenge which is the president of the united states doesn't really have a foreign policy and doesn't really know syria exists unless he potentially sees it on fox news in the morning. what we have seen primarily since ambassador jeffrey took on his role, he has done the right things, put energy into us policy on syria and 2 or 3 times, destroyed all the progress he made militarily. and jim has had to start again. ambassador jeffrey traveled to ankara with the support of mike pompeo. he did in my view all of the right things which was to let nato support turk

jeffries: the overall importance -- >> the overall imprints of his thaton is clear but >> were you able to tie any particular acquisitions in the war to a strategic battlefield moment, or something like that? dr. peiss: unfortunately, no. frederick kilgore claimed that among the idc, that there was material related to the atomic bomb that was useful to american physicists. i do not know that i can confirm that. that was his claim. he made it natalie to me personally at age 90, but also in his budget report -- he made it, not only to me personally at age 90, but in his budget reports, the rockets and weaponry, that information was useful. but i cannot really tie it. i think there is a gap between what they were hoping this material would show and its actual usability in the mist of battle. >> thank you. -- in the midst of battle. >> first i want to think you for your talk. lot with deals a librarians and library science. piece, that isl what i am concentrating on in my masters now. so i'm curious, could you talk and if theresearch is any focus on, particularly the archival side of the mo

. >> it's an interesting argument you're making, because that's exactly what hakeem jeffries and schiffbeen saying throughout. the lesson that needed to be learned was not by the president of the united states. he feels empowered and emboldened ever since the mueller report where they did this pressure campaign. the republicans in the senate, at some point those tables are going to turn, and at some point everyone will have to pay the piper. right now making yourself an impotent branch by saying, i'll give the power away. i've always been struck by the obstruction of congress article of impeachment, because the senate could have gotten behind like a mama bear behind a cub and actually roared in advance and said, hold on a second. it was a congressional subpoena that went out, not just a house one, a congressional one. now if i take away and say, i'm not going to fight for that, it's not the president who has just gone above the law, you've put him there by saying, i will cede my power. that will be consequential down the line. >> it is a use it or lose it proposition. ross, let me hold

. >> jeffries racing its price target on nvidia to $315 a share.hat bates out rbc's street high made earlier this week of $301 jeffries expecting nvidia to report positive trends report iw know that microsoft, amazon and google are going to resume raising cloud capex and in the case of google specifically, they talked about spending more on equipment, not just on facilities so less on building and more on the stuff that nvidia makes. so i think all of those trends bode well and gaming will be solid. so i'm long on the stock i hope the earnings report is a good one the last one was very good and hopefully we see the three handle once again. >> can we talk beyond meat for a second piper sandler says the good news is already in. if mcdonald does sign on you'll get a little boost, but they say already at $115 -- >> the expectation is that mcdonald will sign on and they say if they do, that's $100 million opportunity over many years. so popeye's said chicken sandwiches gave them a 38% boost in sales that's where it's at and meat is $80 billion in americ

this is kma this is what has keem jeffries warned the senate about during the impeachment trial. it is the clearest sort of attempt at a shake down one could imagine. he is demanding that a state official, a state, do something to benefit him personally in exchange for him perhaps lifting a likely illegal action that he took vis-a-vis that state. again, it is exactly what the senate was warned about, and many senators thought could never happen again because the whole impeachment thing sent the president a warning shot, taught him a lesson he shouldn't do stuff like this. i hope we all understand he has learned nothing from the impeachment experience. >> or has he learned something, ben, has he learned he can do whatever the heck he wants? >> i think he has learned a lesson here, just not the one we want him to learn. look, he ended that tweet by telling governor cuomo not to bring fredo to the meeting. i have a different suggestion, wear a wire. if that's what he says in public, who knows what he will say in private. that seems to be the lesson of the call wl volodymyr zelensky.

new york congressman hakeem jeffries says it is clear that lives were damaged as a result of stop andrisk. bernie sanders' campaign calling for bloomberg to drop out of the presidential race, saying the recording exposes his true nature and an apology isn't enough. this, from new york congressman gregory meeks. >> i don't think this is going to work this time. i think african-american voters are going to look and determine who is the best person to beat donald trump. who has the policies that benefit them? >> harris: joining me now, john lot, president of the crime prevention research center. he has written a compelling op-ed. you can check it out on foxnews.com. good to have you. first of all, you've got a sticking point with this. what is it? >> it's good to talk to you again. look, the issue of stop and frisk is separate from the actual content of his comments. this claim that 95% of murders are committed by young male minorities in virtually all the cities in the united states is an absurd comment. the notion that just because somebody is young, minority, and male, the police shou

the real question i have, he's going to look out and see adam schiff and hakeem jeffries, the peopleave been pros dating against them. i wonder whether he's going to be able to contain himself. he creates issues for himself all the time. the question is, can he stick to that script? i don't know the answer to that. he would be smart to stick to that script, if the president talked about the good economy and not gotten involved in all of these ancillary issues, he would be above 50%. instead, he's being impeached. he's not able to stick to the issues and he gets himself in trouble all the time. >> i wonder what this means going-forward when he is acquitted. not to say he had very many people con strange him in the white house to begin with. as it goes forward. as he gets acquitted for something that even senate republicans say he did do, which is try to influence the election by getting a foreign country to investigate one of his political rivals, what are those in the white house saying about their desire to restrain him or pull him away from his worst instincts? >> well, i think peo

one of the democrats who made the case in the senate representative hakeem jeffries is here. congressman, always a pleasure, i don't mean to be a cynic. but so what? he lied. >> well, listen, donald trump tried to cheat. he got caught. then he worked hard to cover it up. the house managers proved our case decisively before the senate and the american people with a mountain of evidence. donald trump's behavior was abusive. it was appalling. it was inappropriate, it was wrong. those are the words that republican senators have used. >> yes. >> but unfortunately a majority of the senate decided that they wanted to let donald trump off the hook. and so we see the behavior over the last few days that continues the outrageousness and the corruption, but it's in the hands of the american people and i've got full faith and confidence in the american people that they will conclude in november that this is not acceptable. >> so do you spend the time now and doing the people's work on a number of other issues that are obviously pressing and leave the investigations alone? >> well, we cer

contributor kristin, fox news contributor kristen soltis anderson, democratic strategists should bar jeffries. what do you think i'm a cat? >> well, i think it's more likely now than it has been in recent years. not even close, because i think that bernie has a really good shot, just because if you look at the way things are laid out, there are four people sort of vying for this moderate lane, and then he is only competing with elizabeth warren for the more progressive voters, and he's doing decidedly better than she is. so i think that if this were any other situation, i would say with absolutely no reservation that he's going to be the nominee, broker convention, not going to happen. but because it is bernie sanders, specifically, and we already know how the dnc feels about bernie sanders, how establishment democrats feel about bernie sanders, i wouldn't be surprised to see them sort of conspiring, trying to do things to take the nomination away from bernie sanders. so i don't think that it is most likely. i think it's more likely than it ever has been in the past. >> neil: let me help you

question arose with the american administration and we saw the american administration very divided jeffries the special envoy to syria was in ankara asking air to want to put more pressure on the syrian regime but at the same time as he was doing that o'brien at the head of the new n.s.a. was advising the president said what could we do we can wave a flag saying don't do it but ultimately it seems very clear the united states is not going to intervene and and neither are the europeans so i think russia and assad feel that there is turkish weakness on this issue that turkish opposition parties are pushing hard they're criticizing their don't want and saying well how did you can into this is stunning agreement where you said you were going to divide separate the. terrorist organizations from the moderate opposition something that's that's impossible for turkey to do and that's the that's the problem for turkey if they cannot defend hiatt to having a sham which is universally recognized as a terrorist organization and the russians are using that weakness for all its worth right now well it's n

jeffries summed it up to me. they make such a strong case, in my opinion, but today when he commented about ambassador yovanovitch, having the courage to stand up after the ridicule from the president of the united states, doing everything he did to destroy her and was somewhat successful in that, that's exactly what senators need to process. this is not about them. this is about our country. it's not about politics. >> host: hakeem jeffries one of the four is spoke in the first hour of the house managers argument with adam schiff summing it up reserving time as the winter break. they heard from jason crow, from hakeem jeffries, , adam schiff d also from val demings who here gives an overview of the articles of impeachment. >> president trump abuse the extraordinary powers he alone holds as president of united states to coerce an ally to interfere in our upcoming presidential election for the benefit of his own reelection. he then used those unique powers to wage an unprecedented campaign to obstruct congress and

you see people like the fourth in power in the house, hakeem jeffries, on the democratic side. you see those leaders talking about how offended they were by that handshake. bret, is there something more we look at when we consider the fact that the president didn't shake either one of their hands? pence's or pelosi's? just out of fairness, i don't know. >> there's that he didn't see her, that he didn't shake the vice president's hand. yes, there's all that. but the reason it's a focus is because nancy pelosi sent out a tweet afterwards with her outstretched hand to the president and am turning around and she said, "we will always reach out." right after the speech. it's not reaching out today. at the end of this press conference, that's not the message that you get. from "he looked sedated," to "he doesn't pray, he doesn't know anything about faith," two -- you could go through 5 or six things that nancy pelosi said. something tells me that at the end of the speech they will probably be more than six things the president says. >> melissa: i hope you will come back after the spe

the only one that's missing from that group is hakeem jeffries.visible presence among the managers. he's actually a member of the escort committee for the president of the united states. so an interesting face-to-face meeting there. that's part of his traditional duties. he's a caucus chairman, so i wouldn't read too much into that necessarily. but still, an interesting moment for this president. and, of course, as you remember, bill clinton did give a state of the union address when he was also in the middle of an impeachment trial, his unfolding back in 1999. but, of course, the big difference, it was not an election year then. this, of course, 2020, you have been covering basically a second iowa caucus election night all night. so it's just setting the stage here, brian, some remarkable moments. >> and here's john roberts. >> kasie hunt, we last saw her in iowa. she is back in the chamber. you'll have to trust us. we certainly can hear her. as if on cue, john roberts and the presiding members of the supreme court. gorsuch, kavanaugh and kagan t

hakeem jeffries made the case america's integrity on the world stage is on the line and the elections ignored jason's sense of duty and call of history. they ignored hakeem's notion the election integrity is on the line. they accepted val demings argument of fact, that the president did wrong. what is missing in the republican posture on that, and i think the american people see it, if it is wrong, then what? because they're simply saying it's wrong but not impeachment. that can't be the whole case. you can't simply say it goes to the american people. is it what senator angus cain said the statute is required because of this. and republicans have refused to do so. >> we are in a lunch recess during the continuous senate trial of the president of the united states. while that action plays out, you have other excitement building across iowa. we will have live reports there from the big big start of the republican primary when we come back. an primary when we come back yes. yeah, yeah no problem. ♪ yes. yes, yes a thousand times yes! discover. accepted at over 95% of places in the u.s.
