>> well, let me say i love jim clyburn.best friends in congress and he's a good man. and, you know, i ran against nancy pelosi, jake. you remember that. you covered that. one of the hardest things in washington d.c. to do is for you to take on your own party's leadership. and i did that. and i -- you know, i got the scars to prove it and that's the kind of leadership we need and it's great contrast to j.d. vance who donald trump said he was an ass kisser from the stage in youngstown ohio and j.d. went back up on the stage after he took his dignity from him, shook his hand and looked up to the crowd and said aren't we having a great time tonight? i've taken my own party and agreed on reducing tariffs on solar pans from china and relaxation of title 42 at the border, the student loan issue. i've taken on former democratic administration on trade on fast track and agreed with trump on issues. i'm here for ohio. if people want an ohioan in the senate, they can help fuel this campaign. i'm not a big money guy but they can go and

jim clyburn and chairwoman maxine waters ch gave out thouss of dollars.hical campaign, you want to be able to do everything above board and not raise questions about your motivation in hiring or signing a contract with a family member from which they are going to derive some financial benefit. >> reporter: waters campaign paid the daughter of chairwoman $16,000 for campaign work. the firm run by karen waters known as progressive connections has earned $1.2 million from her mom's campaign since 2003. clyburn's campaign paid $80,000 to a firm owned by his daughter, another daughter earned $20,000. >> this is an area where i think candidates ought to tread carefully. when a family member or someone the candidate is close to are getting lot of money off of the campaign payroll. >> reporter: it's notable that neither member runs in a battleground district. no response to fox from waters or clyburn. members of both parties employ family members. >> dana: father and son fishing off the new jersey coast when this happened. watch. >> oh! [ bleep ] >> dana: it's a

when you hear jim clyburn say today, acknowledging that prices were going to increase, they had larryling them this, president obama's treasury secretary, and the head of the economic policy advisors for the obama administration a, telling them this. march of last year, inflation was 1.7%. it's 7% when the ukraine war started. this is their policies driving the crazy price increases across america. maria: we don't know how bad it's going to get, congressman. what i'm worried about is we'll see a rail strike after the midterm elections. i've been saying this for a couple of weeks. i believe the president basically told the unions put a pin in it until november 9th and then we'll talk. now the the wall street journal editorial board is out with an op-ed totally agreeing with that notion. it's tie you tells midterm elections first, rail strike later. it charges that biden's rail strike deal looks more like a convenient delay, congressman. what can you tell us on house ways and means committee in terms of the impact of a rail strike? >> well, it's obviously a devastating. when i talk to p

you, speaker pelosi, and jim clyburn have already hit that milestone.u know, there's been discussion about leadership in the past. my own view is that my reading of the membership is they believe that the leadership has been very effective. this has been a very effective congress. we have a four-vote majority and notwithstanding that, we have passed major pieces of legislation which are going to help every american. some directly, some indirectly. we dealt with climate change, we dealt with health care costs, we've dealt with a plan to make sure people had money in their pockets. kids were in school and shots were in arms. most of the meetings i go to, people aren't wearing masks. they feel comfortable coming together. why? because we passed legislation. not a single republican voted for that legislation to get those shots in arms. over 200 million of them. so i'm bullish. pat ryan won in new york. a district that we weren't supposed to win. won a district in alaska that hasn't been represented by a democrat for 50 years, beating sarah palin in that job

and that's as simple as i can put it. >> congressman jim clyburn, very powerful words.l like i learned a lot in that interview, and i really thank you for making time for us tonight. >> well, thank you very much for having me. >> all right, we have an extended version of that behind the scenes footage, in a moment. also, the disgraced ex president sent a 14-page response to the general six committee, just hours after they unanimously voted to subpoena his testimony. we've got a committee member jamie raskin who will join on that, next. don't go anywhere. nywhere. the other day... and forgot where she was. [buzz] you can always spot a first timer. gain flings with oxi boost and febreze. i may be close to retirement but i'm as busy as ever. and thanks to voya, i'm confident about my future. voya provides guidance for the right investments. they make me feel like i've got it all under control. voya. be confident to and through retirement. i have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. now, there's skyrizi. with skyrizi, 3 out of 4 people achieved 90% clearer skin at 4 months.

i'm not concerned about 2024 until we get beyond november 8th, 2022. >> well, congressman jim clyburnvery much appreciate your time. i always appreciate you being with us this morning. >> thank you so much for having me. >> thanks. >>> coming up, what a federal judge is ordering a former trump lawyer to turn over to the house january 6th committee. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports." e diaz-balart reports. so am i. because i'm at risk for pneumococcal pneumonia. i'm asking about prevnar 20. because there's a chance pneumococcal pneumonia could put me in the hospital. if you're 19 or older with certain chronic conditions like copd, asthma, or diabetes, you may be at an increased risk for pneumococcal pneumonia. prevnar 20 is approved in adults to help prevent infections from 20 strains of the bacteria that cause pneumococcal pneumonia. in just one dose. don't get prevnar 20 if you've had a severe allergic reaction to the vaccine or its ingredients. adults with weakened immune systems may have a lower response to the vaccine. the most common side effects were pain and swelling a

she has a long tenure of women in the naacp and she knew before jim clyburn did that he was getting the spring arm. her professional experiences including clyburn state university, georgetown university and loyola. she is a strong advocate for justice, especially women and girls. she gives freely of her time and talent for the welfare and growth of others. she owns degrees from bowie state university, new york university, george washington university with additional studies pursued at america -- american and catholic universities and the university of american -- maryland. please join me in welcoming dr. thelma thomas daily. dr. daley: they are supposed to have scholars appear and i am by no means a scholar, and they gave me the topic last night that i was to talk about dr. bethune as an organizer. i don't know quite what an organizer is but let me see if i can do that. let me also say that as we talk about dr. bethune in terms of the national council of negro women, in 1923 at the fifth national convention of delta sigma theta sorority she was made an honorary member. i know there are

you today, and percent today, a dear friend, who's been one of the great leaders of our country, jim clyburn. congressman clyburn is the majority whip, third ranking democrat, in the united states house of representatives. he's been in the congress since 1993, and has had a phenomenal record of achievement, and in economic development, and racial -- is one of the most revered numbers of the congress, about 19, about 20 years ago, i was working to develop the idea of an international african american newseum. congressman clyburn was then as busy as anyone in the congress. if he went to his office, from capitol hill, and [inaudible] coming and going, and everybody needed time with the congressman. it was tough to have a presentation with them. i want to ask the congressman if he would consider being chair of the board of the international african american [inaudible]. in world war ii. and from the book with the african-american . [inaudible]. [inaudible]. world war ii. [inaudible]. in the world is changing. [inaudible]. [inaudible]. [inaudible]. [inaudible]. [inaudible]. [inaudible]. [inaudibl

congressman jim clyburn, who serves in leadership alongside you, said the following this week -- >> alloters are concerned about these rising costs. and all of us knew this would be the case when we put in place this recovery program. any time you put more money into the economy, prices tend to rise. >> did you also realize at that time that the congressional spending would add to inflation? did you see that risk then? >> first of all, government spending does. we have a pandemic. and that brought down unemployment from 7% to 3.5% now. it put people back to work, children back in school, inoculations in the arm, and it helped take us through that phase of the pandemic. but let me just say that because of more people working and the rest, the national -- the deficit has been cut in half from 2.8% to $1.4 trillion. that is a big change. so it is -- yes, we have to take a step forward to solve the pandemic problem, but we did so in a way that would reduce the national deficit. and that is -- cannot be ignored. >> but on things like sending $1400 checks, putting cash out there, didn't that

it is so important that we rejoice when we see someone like jim clyburn, who has essentially devoted his life to this cause. honesty, and justice, and integrity and service. for everyone who tuned in today -- certainly students, i am honored to teach here the congressman, thank you so much for being with us. the marvelous example that you give all of us of public service, decency, and what it means to be a citizen of our country. thank, you sir. >> thank you so much for having me. i would like to add to this, if there's nothing in store already, please do me a big favor, read martin luther king's letter to the -- next to the bible, that is one of the most time of documents i have a read. i will call your attention to one little section in that book. king wrote in that book that we, are going to be made to repent, and this generation. not just for the needs of others but for -- the good people, when we see injustice, we must break our silence. we have to do this to preserve this country. we are an example for the world. we cannot allow any misfits to destroy the mantra that we have de

jim clyburn in south carolina saves him from a political apocalypse that gets this guy in the white housed then as he is running for election, his crack-addicted son, who likes to do like ufc fights with prostitutes north south position stuff whatever on tape, on tape, bro. it's on tape, smoking crack. the big tech companies come, in get the righty out of the bullpen, they relief pitcher and rescue this guy and he magically finds himself sitting in the white house and now all of a sudden the fbi is like man, we can't seem to find a crime with this guy. got his business partner on national television talking about him being the big guy cutting 10% from the chinese communist party. i don't know. i'm serious. is this not the luckiest guy. >> jesse: luckiest man you forgot covid-19. if it wasn't for covid-19, it wouldn't have even been close, dan. >> he would have lost by 5. >> jesse: go back to the secret service thing. so he goes to delaware, right in the secret service says we don't have any record. like when trump was going to mar-a-lago, everybody knew who he was hanging out with because

democratic majority whip jim clyburn blames the defund the police mantra for democratic losses in 2020. >> i really believe that that's what caused joe cunningham his seat. jimmy harrison started to plateau when defund the police, showed up with the caption on tv, right across his head. these headlines can kill the political left. >> and now defined the police is being used against democrats in battleground states such as wisconsin, where polling has the senate race neck and neck. >> mandela barnes stands with defund the police and supports no cash bail that release dangerous criminals back in our communities. >> violent crime on the rise democratic candidates are having the defund the police movement hung around their necks like in albatross. but there is a difference between extremists who are exiled to the outer fringes of their party and extremists who are embraced by their party, which brings me to georgia republican congresswoman marjorie taylor greene. >> many in our government are actively worshipping satan. >> name a deranged conspiracy theory, and this woman believes it. qano

so jim clyburn and others had to rescue him. they had nobody else left. they have no energy in their party. i've seen deeper benches on a peewee little league team than democrats. they can't carry the movement forward with any positive policy. the american people are seeing it right now. none of it is working. jackie: one school of thought out there, that the president isn't actually calling the shots, mark? that is more extreme members of the party that you just mentioned, that did not get the nomination, maybe setting some of these extreme policies that play out hurting americans. the president said this is not a referendum about him, that it is, paraphrasing here, but it is about two very polar opposite types of policies but to me is the policy for the left. he represents it. so absolutely this is referendum on him and what he has done in his tenure. we have a sound bite from lindsey graham. here is how he thinks the midterms can go. >> i think we can be at 52 or 53 in the senate? >> really. >> i think we take the house. first bill, secure the border,

down there whether way be black, white or is irrelevant, if you go to south carolina and running jim clyburn's district you will not get funding from the are in see no matter how -- they draw up the funding and for 30 something years, nothing but lies, like lincoln said in the state of the union address, the only -- the republican party existed except for the lies you tell about us. >> guest: both parties what they did. i want to come back, your voice is so important, that is why -- to be a part of this interview on afterwords. race, you can find race in everything in america today, what do you say when you look at trave on martin, george floyd, everything is about race to the mainstream media when it involves a white officer and someone who's black and it doesn't tell the whole story. how do you get black americans, and whites to another extent to see that it is not always about race, and you talk about this in your book, obsession, is that it sells? what is it? they are controlled by larger interests we are unaware of? >> they have an agenda to keep their power, black people have to vote, th

even jim clyburn from south carolina said yeah, we definitely pumped too much money into the economyto do it. they feel the problem. >> let's go back to march of 2021. the covid stimulus plan. that was the kickoff if you talk to wall street experts like i do. they said that was a kickoff to the stimulus spending and checks that created the inflation problem we have today. the answer was the inflation reduction act which again, according to receive ran analysts and reports will tell you it won't do anything to reduce inflation. maybe next year. if are you the white house you are going on tv saying well, it will help americans with energy costs. that's next year. a lot of the parts of the inflation reduction act don't kick in until next year. mid-terms are this year. >> bill: he will say republicans want to lower taxes and change medicare and change social security. no they are not. they can't. president biden is still in the white house. >> dana: they aren't saying they want to. >> they aren't coming out saying they want to, exactly. this is what happens. >> bill: breaking news right

jim clyburn, very influential congressman from south carolina.nd speak at the democratic dinner in south carolina in june. the democratic party couldn't cover it, the state party. he had to put some of the money up himself. he said to me it was money well spent. still, that's a big factor here. i was on a plane with buttigieg and he's got one guy sitting next to him in coach on an american airlines flight. >> he has been traveling, including up to new hampshire. there was a poll in new hampshire of likely voters in the primary. this is what the poll says. buttigieg is -- at 17 %, not super high, but above names in the democratic party including narrowly beating president biden. i guess the question on all of this is, is this kind of presidential maneuvering for buttigieg or for others who are trying to get him into some of these swing states? >> absolutely. there's no question about it. no one knows if president biden is going to run for re-election or not. there's a view, you know, he already is the old eest preside ever. there's a few, look how

you can see jim clyburn being in a senior position. i would be surprised if nancy pelosi continued to be the democratic leader after this new congress takes over. >> could you see her leaving congress? >> yes. that would be my guess. although, she has not confided in me. maybe she told terry mcauliffe last night. >> she didn't confide in me with that. millions of americans today have health care because of nancy pelosi. you think of what this woman, the legacy she has left in the lives she has saved, it's extraordinary. >> there's no question of the achievements and how fiery she is as a leader. susan, charlie, jason and terry, thanks to all of you. >>> florida fireworks. a debate full of sharp one liners between two well-known candidates. was it enough to spark voters to change their minds? you are watching "andrea mitchell reports" only on msnbc. 12 irresistible subs. the most epic sandwich roster ever created. ♪♪ it's subway's biggest refresh yet! power e*trade's award-winning trading app makes trading easier. with its customizable

jim clyburn was here, democrats are still spending millions of dollars here.is still really a uncerntain situation. >> all right antonio hilton in north carolina's capital city, thank you for taking a few minutes to join us tonight, appreciate it. again, our here a battleground states, we'll continue now back into the calm of democratic held seats that republicans are targeting. this is the one, the only one who see that is covered in red right now. this is the only democratic seat, nevada, where republicans currently lead in the polling average. that's adam laxalt, the republican challenger to democratic senator catherine cortez masto. he leads in the polling. if republicans can make this actually happen in the election, and if, big if here, if they can defend all the seats that they already hold, that would be enough to give republicans control of the u. s. senate. it could come down to this race in nevada. so, in early voting by the way, starting in nevada tomorrow. the election begins tomorrow in nevada tomorrow. nbc's -- is live in las vegas, where the ea

who is that spry fellow cuddling up with chuck schumer and jim clyburn and nancy pelosi as they workcapitol back from an armed mob. now, it looks an awful lot like steve scalise. don't let your lying eyes to seaview. if that were the case, that would make scalise guilty of, i don't know, gaslighting, lying, being a total fraud. let's get a second opinion. someone else who is in the room with nancy pelosi, the rest of the democratic and republican leadership teams on that january six. minnesota democrat and squat member ilhan omar. you can see there. joins me now. congresswoman, thank you so much for coming back on the show. before we get to steve scalise, explain to our viewers why you are there in that secure room with the democratic republican congressional leadership on 16. >> well, it's great to be with you first of all. when the january six insurrection was taking place, capitol police decided that my life was in danger. decided to relocate me into the same location as leadership to make sure that i wouldn't be harmed because of the death threats i was dealing with. >> well, tha

and then jim clyburn was chief among them who said this is a bad political plan.he democratic party, at least in washington, shift its messaging. and you're seeing why this this race in wisconsin. because it is being used against mandela barnes pretty effectively by republicans. it's a close race, i will say every source i've talked to thinks ron johnson has an edge and would be surprised if he didn't pull it out. that said, it's important to keep running the campaigns because you never know. >> i totally agree with your point. the democrats knew this was going to be a vulnerability going back to earlier this year. you saw president biden in the state of the union give a full-throated denunciation of defund the police. what they didn't expect was these reams and reams of videos from the 2020 summer of george floyd, videos that republicans are turning into campaign ads. and you're seeing that take place in wisconsin, where mandela barnes, his lead has turned into a deficit. you're also seeing it in pennsylvania, where fetterman's lead over oz has been essentially h

they run into jim clyburn's district you will not get any funding no matter who you are. they dry up the funding so for 30 somethingyears you've got people that have fed nothing but lies . it's like lincoln said, he said they're just slaves that barely know the republican party existedexcept for the lies you tell us . >> i want to come back. i think your point is so important. it's why you're part of this interview on "after words". race, you can find racism in anything inamerica today . what do you say when you look at trayvon martin, breonna taylor. everything follows race and it doesn't tell the whole story . how do you get black americans and whites to another extent to see that it's not always about race. and what is the meaning, you talk about this in your book. is it that they're part of this design, is it they are controlled by some larger interest? >> they have an agenda and they know that to keep their power we have to vote for republicans. they know they cannot lose the black vote. they willbring this country down before they do it . you and i know about trayvo

if you could south carolina and run in jim clyburn statistic you will not get any funding from rnc no matter how good you are. they dry up the funding and so now for 30 something years you had a people down there that effort nothing but lies. likely could sit in his cooper union address. he said that your slaves will barely know that a republican party existed except for the lies you tell about them into present. >> host: but it is vice versa. >> guest: both of them do. >> host: i want to come back, i think your voice is so important. that's why i'm honored to be a part of this interview on "after words." you know, race, you can find racism in everything that america today. what do you say when you look at trayvon martin, you look at george floyd, breonna taylor, everything is about race for the mainstream media when it involves a white officer and some do is black. and it really doesn't tell the whole story. how do you get black americans, and whites to another extent, ,o see that it's not always about race? and what is the media, you talk about this in your book, obsession, is that

whether they be black white is irrelevant if you go down in south carolina and run in general jim clyburn'sistrict, you will not get any funding from the rnc no matter how good you are. they dry up the funding and so now for 30 something years. you've had a people down there that heard nothing but lies. it's like lincoln said in this cooper union address. he said the only he said that your slaves would barely know that a republican party existed except for the lives that you tell about us in their presence, but it's vice verses what both parties it's what they do both of yeah, both of you. i want to come back. i think your voice is so important. that's why on it to be a part of this. in a view on afterwards you know race. you can find racism in everything. yeah in america today. do you say? when you look at trayvon martin, you look at george floyd. breonna taylor, you know, everything is about race for the mainstream media when it involves a white officer and someone who's black and it really doesn't tell the whole story. how do you get black americans and and whites to another extent to se

this was a labor of love and i want to thank my partner, congressman jim clyburn who along the way was always there to say that this is right and, jim, i really appreciated your words after the unveiling ceremony to where you said that we are in a moment of time that they want to rewrite history. i really appreciated that you had to say, you cannot rewrite history. you shouldn't even try. [applause] >> we are not going to. we are going to celebrate this great educator. thank you for being an inspiration. -- if you don't know her and you see her on the january six committee, she also was instrumental in helping us stay on track and all of her staff. the architect of the capitol, michelle cohen, the curator in erin courtney and andrew -- we're also instrumental in the early days and helping her understand what it means to have a symbol of great minutes in the united states capitol in national statuary hall. and speaker pelosi as well. i love the idea that it's kind of a girl power moment, no offense mister whip. to have a female artist, the female head of statuary fund, a female speaker

and people like jim clyburn would go the opposite direction and say, no, we need reform, but we need to actually fund the police more because it's people of color that are the victims of crime more often than not, and it's something that reverend sharpton has always said. but i will tell you, the last week talking about knocking on doors and getting anecdotal evidence, which always found, you hear it enough, like it's on people's mind when they vote. i have heard from one democrat after another democrat who work for democrats, when i was in washington, when i'm in new york, when i'm in other parts of the country, they're not saying, hey, let's talk politics. they're all talking about crime. hey, did you hear there was a shooting in such and such. yesterday mika got a call from somebody in washington, you know, connected with a powerful democrat. her house was broken into. you know, it's bizarre. i'm hearing a different story every day, and when people are talking about crime, they're not connecting it to the election. they're just saying, my god, things are getting really bad here. a
