i think he calls it johnson and johnson. the nixon relationship was sort of like like it's like a cockfight between, sort of two roosters with sort of knives attached to their spurs, and they're circling other you know, they never take the eyes the other. but as long as the one doesn't strike, then no one gets bloodied. and i think that sort of sets up the idea know of the of the johnson nixon relationship. i again, i'm careful. i wouldn't say they were friends, but they were friendly. i wouldn't say that johnson supported nixon i would say he came to prefer him. and so it's it's a nuanced i mean these were these were longtime rivals, you know, who fought who ended the of many of each other's over many decades. but i think they came to see that they needed each other. so we're at the nixon library. we to uh let's talk about former vice. nixon. in the 1960s he lost the presidency in 1960 he lost a run for california governor in 1962. and yet through a meticulously strategy and not to mention his own sheer will in his own dete

>> many people are asking, who is mike johnson? >> who is mike johnson exactly?ins said "i was going to google him this morning." >> after susan collins on millions upon millions of images of dicks, she found this. >> people are curious, what does mike johnson think about any issue under the sun? i say, go pick up a bible off your shelf and read it. that is my worldview. that is what i believe. >> jesus christ. the g.o.p. had found a man so bland he will put you to sleep, but so insane, he might murder you in it. this is the "the daily show" ography of mike johnson. crazy boring. long before america knew mike johnson as in a life man with a face and hair and body po heartbeats away from the presidency, he was just a boy who had a smaller face and hair and body parts, growing up in louisiana. in 1984, when johnson was 12, his fireman father narrowly survived an explosion. later, johnson recalled, "all i ever aspired to be was a fireman." but his parents would not let us be firemen after that. it was a life-changing moment. a person could just forbid other people f

rex johnson doesn't criticizef nick stated nixon doesn't criticize johnson. both nixon and johnson had political staffers. it was reallyhi good about this. in history. i believe a sapphire said something johnson is instructing the young speechwriting staff. i know it's awkward but do not criticize johnson. he has had it hard, he has suffered. sapphire sets up this image that you can imagine pre-socket johnson nixon relationship is like a cockfight between two roosters with knives to their spurs they are circling each other yet they never take their eyes off the other. as long as the one does not strike no one gets bloodied. i think that sort of sets up the idea of the johnson nixon relationship. again i am careful. i would not say they were friends but they were friendly. i would not say johnson supported nixon. i would say he came to prefer him. it is nuanced. these for a long time rivals who ended the careers of a many of each other's friends over many decades. but i think they came to see that they needed each other. >> we are at the nixon library. let's t

johnson was a fan of fdr of this this picture here young johnson meeting fdr in an fdr campaign swing through texas is captures some of that it's also notable because you can find other versions of this that johnson used in campaign literature in which the guy in the middle who i think is the governor of texas has been airbrushed out. he's gone. but this is the original shot and the johnson's and why a experience was noteworthy years later. robert weaver, who johnson, nominated to become the first secretary of the department of housing and urban development, which and weaver was a approved by the senate, making weaver the first african american member of the cabinet. this is in 1965. and during his confirmation hearings, weaver is before the senate and somebody asks him, well, so what? what draws you to work for this guy? johnson? he's a southerner we always understood that he was a pretty conservative southerner. and we were reported with regard to the national youth administration, quote, i soon heard about this guy down in texas who was shocking some people up on the hill because h

johnson laid out the program. you said my first job after college was as a teacher in cotulla, texas, a small mexican-american school. few of them could speak english, and they often came to class without breakfast hungry. ey knew even in their youth, the pain of prejudice. they never seemed to kw why peopleiske them, but they knew it was so. i saw it in their eyes. i often home wishing there was more that i could do. you never forget what poverty anatred can do when see its scars on the hopeful face of a young child. i never thought then in 1928 that i would be standing here. in 1965 that i might have the chance to help the sons and daughters of those students and people like them all over the country. but now i do have that chance, and i'll let you in on a secret. i mean, to use it. the biographers, evans and novak novak report that the next day johnson was in his office, and a friend complimented him on his speech and asked who wrote it and the report is that johnson pulled from his desk. this picture and said.

guest: speaker johnson took over for mr. mccarthy and he made a promise to blow forward in passing a dozen republican appropriations bills. he had some initial success there on some of the easier bills. as we've gotten through the week, the problems plaguing mr. mccarthy are now plaguing speaker johnson. it's just that you have this really unruly republican conference that cannot coalesce around these bills. the transportation housing bill was supposed to come up for a vote the other week. you had members who work in and around the amtrak northeast corridor saying they couldn't stomach $1 billion in funding cuts for amtrak. on the other hand, conservatives said they wanted to get rid of amtrak altogether. you had somebody like congressman tom cole who oversees that bill saying i've got eight or 10 members in both sides telling me they don't want to support this. i have to get the two of them to vote for this bill. those problems are still in existence. the financial services bill last week which is typically not controversia

all this as johnson's liabilities are plenty. mortgage for his family home valued between 250 and $500,000, a personal loan from 2016 between $15,000 and $50,000 and a home equity line of credit taken in 2019 for less than $50,000. as a congressman, jorn son was making $174,000 a year. his salary will now jump to $223,500 as speaker. he has made over $100,000 teaching online courses at liberty university since 2018. last year alone johnson collected nearly $30,000 from the college. on capitol hill to save money on steep d.c. rent, johnson is one of the many members of congress that sleep in their offices. a source say the speaker will continue to sleep in his office for now but didn't know if that will be the plan going forward. >> there are a lot of things on the minds of american people -- >> reporter: johnson's financial standing in stark contrast to many of his colleagues on capitol hill. with the median net worth of his colleagues in 2018 at just over $1 million. some former speakers have done well. nancy pelosi is worth mor

johnson is doing the best that he can. hey is it taking into consideration numerous aspectsn of what is going on. trying to find israel. at the same time being rejected by president biden which to me it makes no sense. i think mr. johnson is up to now anyway, a pretty good speaker. as responsible and should be given a break perhaps the members of the house of representatives could themselves to be a little bit more responsible and take into consideration congress is not a monologue entity where everyone thanks the same. your thoughts and thank you. >> it is a good point. you noted speaker johnson and speaker mccarthy are kind of doing what they are supposed to do. a lot of folks don't think it should be criminalized for republicans after work with democrats to keep the government open. what he is proposing to keep the government open right now will almost certainly need help from democrats. it's a pretty measured idea all things considered democrats are not a fan of putting the government. it is reasonable for him to want

all this as johnson's liabilities are plenty. a mortgage for his family home valued between $250,000 and $500,000. a personal loan from 2016 between $15,000 and $50,000, and a home equity line of credit taken in 2019 for less than $50,000. as a congressman, johnson was making $174,000 a year. his salary will now jump to $223,500 as speaker. and he has made over $100,000 teaching online courses at liberty university since 2018. last year alone, johnson collected nearly $30,000 from the college.

johnson: -- sen. johnson: ballpark. dir. wray: i am confident the number of agents working on threats that should be billed to the border far exceeds the people working on the january 6 investigation. host: what do you think of that as far as the resources dedicated to people coming across the border? guest: the big point that wray makes is this is only partly a counterterrorism problem. the border is much bigger, organized prime -- organized crime and security threats. i focus on terrorism. a report from the cato institute noted that in their database they only have nine illegal immigrants who conducted terrorism attacks in the u.s. they killed or injured zero people. that is not a serious threat. when we talk about the southern border antiterrorism -- and the terrorism nexus, border patrol reported 151 migrants that were positive terrorism watch list matches. that is lower than the northern border. just because somebody on the terrorism database, it does not mean they are a suspected terrorist. it could be a false positive

>> speaker johnson is a product of the bible belt.is an ally of israel and made clear that standing with israel is his first priority is incoming speaker. for years democrats were able to win over a wide swath of secular independent blue-collar voters by purpura -- pretraining republicans as bible thumpers looking to impose their moral values. democrats have struggled to make headway against trump with those voters because he doesn't represent that christian conservative wing. he came in as a twice divorced casino mogul. mike johnson is more of a standard issue christian conservative who is open about his faith and its role in his political position. so yes it is right for demo -- riep for democratic attack. at the same time johnson is so anonymous with the voters still that it could be difficult to make him a central issue. host: from virginia, independent line, dave. hello. caller: thank you for c-span. i wonder how our current house of representatives -- close it is to what our founding fathers envisioned with all the corruption an

johnson's dictionary. the degree of physical contact is the same and then i look more importantly at the constitution and the way it was used in the 1846 constitution. and 1848. the main dictionary was merriam-webster. to give you some historical account. that deals with some kind of physical context. i find unconvincing given that history that it would mean something other than a degree of physical contact. >> even if that is where you are and you think it requires some physical contact. >> that is the meaning of the word. >> your, respectfully, we cited examples to have what is called a lizard definition but i think we've all been thinking about this a lot. patino any wisconsin supreme court case that decided the original meeting of contiguous an article four of section four and five? >> as far as the original meaning, i think johnson decided that not once, twice, three times, i am trying to get to that. what is important in the constitutional contest is an adjective and you still have to decide about mo

newly elected speaker mike johnson has announce a two-step plan to fund the government and it is running into opposition from democrats and some republicans. cnn's manu raju has the details. >> speaker mike johnson in his first test as speaker unveiling the plan to keep the government open with just a handful of days before the end of the week deadline, but already facing fire from his right flank who members of the house freedom caucus concerned about the lack of spending cuts. democrats didn't want any spending cuts and would vote against it and it would not have aid to israel and they're criticizing the unconventional approach by johnson and some agencies would be funded until mid-january and others until early-february and this is an unusual approach, but one johnson says can help achieve their legislative objectives. how many folks on the right will push back and try to push him out because of the lack of spending cuts and whether they will actually try to push him out. i recall that not too long ago, kevin mccarthy, the former speaker lost his job because a major part here because

johnson's arrival held with joy. the result, client is a bad e feeling but did not restore harmony between the core commanders and the general. even though johnson could not fix the animosity, johnson explains to davis that he could not effectively command the tr armies of both bragg and johnson is in charge of several different armies simultaneously but doesn't have the authority p to tell any of them to go is anywhere or do anything unless jefferson davis specifically gives it to him and that johnson is reluctant to be exercise that power and he did not want to do it. he stressed that bragg's army was closer to robert e lee's in virginia and that davis could not centralize military authority in the western theater if his arms were so spread out. and if davis had to choose whether johnston needed to oversee bragg or tim burton, the choice was clear. john pemberton was way worse than braxton back -- braxton bragg g. he needs a babysitter. he ended up going with pemberton until the fall of vicksburg at the fall of a v

but it is a big test for mike johnson. so far, so good as far as his ability to keep his conference in line. he's been able to pass bills, keep them together mostly, and he's got his work cut out for him the last couple of weeks. the israel bill, not going to become law the way he proposed it. these other bills on the floor today and tomorrow, also not going to become law. host: i would ask before you leave, i want to show you an ad from the house pack, their job to get democrats into the house. speaker johnson now becoming the main target for them. i want to show you the latest to talk about what it means for politics. >> after all the chaos, congressional republicans chose extremist mike johnson sp grabowski. johnson voted to overturn the presidential election in the skull the mastermind of the january 6 plot. johnson pushed for national abortion ban even for victims of rape and call for deep cuts to social security, even raising the retirement age. mike johnson and congressional republicans are just too extreme. host: h

now mike johnson in a similar predicament. there are concerns that johnson could get pushed out.here are concerns whether he could pass a in the house. there is no word from the speaker's office about how he plans to proceed with this eight days until government shuts down. the house is out of session. the senate is out of session. nobody is here. before they left town, there were warnings and concerns from some of the colleagues that the honeymoon period that he enjoyed for this brief period could be ending. >> i think there is a honeymoon period here, maybe 30 days with what's going on the floor today. i think that indicates the honeymoon might be shorter than we thought. >> so the question is that how he plans to proceed. if he tries to move too far to the right, he may lose republican sport. he could prompt a revolt from the senate. prompt opposition from the white house. that kpcould potentially lead ta government shutdown. if he moves forward with legislation that could get support from the democrats, that could prompt the same problems that mccarthy had. as one congressman

mike johnson does, as well. the difference is kevin's at the end of his runway in mike's at the beginning of his. i think there is a certain unity to the conference. i think a lot of people, even on the hard right, know that they will have to accept some concessions and give some concessions. johnson will probably leave. some of the dynamic i'm looking for is not israel, i think that will get passed. we are maybe there is a few shutdowns. republicans won't care. it is ukraine. there is not enough folks, the majority of the majority, i'm not sure where those numbers are in the republican party. there is such a hard split on ukraine that without border security, without a strong maga concession, what happens if mike johnson does have to sign off on the package with jeffries and schumer and president biden? that runway is short. i think he has some. probably under the next election. >> stay with us. we are going to continue the conversation with brandon, jennifer, and david after a quick break. break. closer to ico

mike johnson sees it as public. will the nation get surrender judgment on his view of the world. >> nina, we have a tamed version of the evangelical in mike pence. but he was a whole bunch of won plump with his attempts to become the next president of the united states. we also see that in support of abortion rights have seen some massive winds lately in red leading states. republicans are just completely tone-deaf when it comes to what the voting public really wants, right? >> absolutely. this is consistent on a number of different issues guns to voting rights, et cetera, that the republican conference is not in line with the american public. these views are extreme. they are completely out of step with the american people. as the former congressman just mentioned, they will have that opportunity to elect a new congress next year. just to rectify and change some of the direction of congress, currently. >> david, speaker johnson deciding to release thousands of hours of january 6th footage which, he says, i am payin

and johnson's and his usual destruction mode.he says, what do you know? you're from america and. what are you reading, america? you don't read anything, he said. but sir, we read the rambler and this johnson's perfectly modified, and he changes his attitude. and it actually turns out that johnson was hugely popular in america. he was there was editions of all of his major works, sometimes within months. so franklin was the to to print johnson's vanity of human, which went into poor richard's almanac were not not into a you know, a kind of august poetry collection that went into poor richard's almanac and so that was the quality of the kind of stuff that was getting published at the time. so that crossover is really interesting in a while life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, you very adroit, the sleight of hand choose that famous phrase as a way, organize your book. this organizing to three sections according to each word or phrase, but i say sleight of hand because other words that might have been used. so when you think t

chris: boris johnson's judgment caused anger today.s obsessed with older people accepting their fate and letting the young get on with life and the economy going, where patrick balance, the government's then scientific advisor, showed that the prime minister was sociopathic, some ministering the brief said. the picture we are seeing is one of dysfunction, shambles of government at just a moment when government was more important to more people than it had been for decades and decades. the other man taking questions today was boris johnson's man in charge of communications. he reckons his former boss dithered and wasn't suited to leadership in a pandemic. >> what will probably be clear in covid, it was the wrong crisis for this prime minister's skill set, which is different, i think, from not being up to the job of prime minister. chris: what about why it took 10 days from agreeing to a first lockdown to announcing it? >> i think it is longer than you would like, but i think it is important to emphasize the amount of things that had to

mccarthy had seven months, johnson has only had a few weeks. so, we will see what he does in the full amount of time under his belt. >> that is interesting that you would say this is a question of how much time that they have had. i want to play for you what you told me back on september 22nd when mccarthy was speaker at the time, listen. >> if speaker mccarthy puts a continuing resolution on the floor to keep the government open for 30 days, is that an us, in your mind, to force a vote to keep him out of his job? >> i agree with many of my colleagues who say that speaker mccarthy embraces a clean continuing resolution to continue to spending policies of nancy pelosi and joe biden, that would most likely trigger a motion to vacate. >> isn't speaker johnson also doing the same thing? pursuing a continuing resolution that continues the policies, in your word, of nancy pelosi and joe biden. why would that not cost him his job? >> as i said before you played that clip, it's all a function of time. you see, michael johnson and kevin mccarthy both pr

republicans came out against johnson's proposals, almost immediately. congressman -- says the opposition, quote, cannot be overstated. congressman oren davidson complained of, quote, policies and status quo funding levels. and congressman marjorie taylor greene went ballistic with all caps assertions of no money to ukraine, close the, border and impeach biden mayorkas ray garland and -- meanwhile, democrats in both chambers have made it abundantly clear that speaker johnson stop gap funding bill is that in the water. senate majority leader chuck schumer has already taken a procedural step that would allow the senate to vote on a continuing resolution next week. in short, we are barreling towards a government shutdown again. joining me now, congressman boyle of pennsylvania, ranking democratic member of the house democratic committee and member of the house ways and means committee. congressman boyle, thank you as always for coming to the sunday show. speaker johnson had been signaling this staggered funding bill for days. democratic senator patty murray

we have contacted johnson's office for comment on these statements.he still believed. all this for reparative therapy and so on, but we did not receive an answer. in general, he is not a friend of russia, of course, mr. johnson, but he is not so simple either, meaning that he not only spreads values ​​close to us, or at least does not spread what seems disgusting to us, i mean current homosexual trends, it was this person who passed a bill that does not... include assistance to ukraine, so as not to harbor any false illusions, i will say right away that johnson has already said that he, of course, is in favor of helping ukraine, but first let’s save, support, help israel, and after january 15 we will return to the conversation about ukraine, and we must understand that returning to this conversation will not be easy, in any case, a scandal in fact, it flared up after zaluzhny’s interview, there was a terrible seething in the american press , zaluzhny not only called for, admitted the failure of the counter-offensive, but in general we knew about it wi

can speaker mike johnson get the deal done?>> the fbi investigating the new york city mayor for possible foreign influence. we will hear from the mayor for the first time this morning since new details of the probe have emerged. i'm john berman with kate bolduan, fredricka whitfield is in for sara sidner. cnn news central starts now. >>> this morning, only one hospital remains operational and still receiving patients in northern gaza. according to a new report from the united nations, gaza's two largest hospitals are effectively shut down, they say, after saying that they have run out of fuel to power generators, which also, of course, powers important medical supplies like breathing machines. israel has been calling for these hospitals to evacuate as the idf pushes further in to gaza. the world health organization says evacuating critically ill patients now would be a quote death sentence, though. here's president biden's take yesterday. >> it was my hope and expectation that there will be less intrusive action relative to the

with that i want to yield it to our speaker, mike johnson. speaker johnson: thank you, steve. i want to thank this extraordinary leadership team. they're doing a great job and there's a lot on our plate as you have discussed. i want to address israel briefly and then we'll take some questions. it was two weeks ago we passed our immediate aid to israel and thought it was important and the first big thing i did when i became speaker. the aid package meets every specific asked of the biden administration supplemental funding request because the request came straight from our ally israel and should have soared through congress and signed into law but it's not. we're calling on the senate to get serious about this and get serious about supporting israel. last week we heard directly, as you know, from families of israeli hostages who were taken and being held in gaza and their stories are heartbreaking and tragic. and you heard about the film we watched this morning. we had a large group of republican and democrat members of the house in the auditorium this morning and you could hav

this is an unusual type of approach but one which johnson believes can help achieve their legislative objectives. nonetheless, the question is how many folks on the right will push back, try to push him out because of the lack of spending cuts. recall that not too long ago kevin mccarthy, the former speaker, lost his job because? major part, because he advanced a bill to keep the government open through democratic support that did not have spending cuts. i asked mccarthy himself whether or not he's concerned and whether he believes johnson's job could be at risk by taking a similar approach. >> no. look, you get a honeymoon, and they can't go through it again. think how long it took last time. so do you think they would do that again. >> even if he goes and relies on democratic votes the way you had to do it, you think he would be safe. >> yes. i think he's safe regardless. >> reporter: democrats are weighing how they'll proceed. they're still watching how republicans are dealing with this. i'm told from house democratic sources it's uncertain whether they will carry this across the f

caller: i agree with speaker johnson. i found a delightful and refreshing to see that he went into a prayer when he was elected speaker. let's face it, this country is on a downward spiral right now and we need prayer more than ever. no, references to god should not be take of -- taken off of our money or from the pledge of allegiance. the country was founded on religion and it should remain so. host: would you be ok with people who are not christians, people who are jewish, muslim, people who are other religions bringing their religion into american government and into public life as well? caller: probably ok with that. prayer is important and we need prayer more than ever. host: ok. let's go to henry on the independent line. in morning. caller: good morning. i believe that true christianity has been hijacked in america by white nationalism. it was only a few years ago that evangelical christians could go to church, go to sunday school, hear a sermon preached, and then an hour later be out on the square, hanging a black

what happens to johnson at that point? mr. roy: which is why i think we need to be demanding changes right now what you just articulated is why if you get to january 19, february 2, we're going to be in the same position. the fact that look, there's five appropriations bills we haven't been able to move off the floor. i think three of those are doable. but not if we're going to be playing these games what is the incentive to try to move appropriations bills if i feel like we're not going to get to the place where we need to go. if you want to have some of us working to tbig your out how to get the last five finish, get to the conference committee. we all get it. i'm not asking to get everything i want. i'm asking to get one thing i want. one. let's start with that. if i can get one thing i want, maybe i believe we can do something to secure the border of the united states, and help people in texas who are dieing for us to do something for them. reporter: what's one thing you're worried about, to summarize into one border polic

but it didn't alarm mike johnson.lly bad law ma. they've made a mess of jurisprudence in our country. some of that what needs to be clean up. what justice thomas is calling for is not radical. it's the opposite. we finally have a majority of originalists. >> that's not all. johnson claims man is inherently evil and the radical left is god less. take a listen. >> one of the primary purposes of the law is to restrain evil. we have to acknowledge man is evil and needs to be restrained. that's the problem with the radical left. they don't acknowledge a god. >> i guess that's why he has accountability partners. the n audio builds on revelations, including comparisons of the environmentalists as evil and his attempt to overturn the 2020 election. republicans failed to vet johnson. the hits keep coming. at some point it may be impossible for the gop to look away. joining me now, molly john fast, the host of the "fast politics" podcast. so good to see you. happy thanksgiving. look, let's start with the following. we just went
