when kevin mccarthy was running, paul ryan too was essentially -- dragged by the lower lip into the speakership because he is the only one who can cross the caucus. what jim jordan, wasn't even the all freedom caucus. and the majority of republicans, not only is the speaker not supporting it but the senate intelligence committee and the whole tree they are barking up to say this is the wrong tree, you're going the wrong place on this. a lot of voices are opposed to what they are seeking as relates to rosenstein. to lunch the impeachment proceeding, i give them the benefit of the doubt, jim jordan, this may have been beyond his control, this is pure coincidence but to launch the impeachment proceeding on the same day you announce your candidacy for speaker, i am with willing to believe it would taint both in the eyes of many members. are you insincere about this, is that in the service of this. and the smarter course of action would not tangle up, jim jordan's chances will not wait between now and his candidacy. >> that is the work ahead. many republicans reacting to the saying we don't want to

what i would say to kevin, we have kevin mccarthy on the republican side, nancy pelosi on the democratesterday's news. we need to put new candidates forward, make congress work again. elizabeth: i want to bring you in the conversation, kevin. jim jordan is speaking on behalf of the freedom caucus for those who know politics, that's about 30 members of the republican party who by and large really do a lot to block if you will, to block votes, let's be honest. are you running on blocking? how does that work? >> we are 1 -- we are 101 daysm the midterm election. it's interesting to see the conversations that are going on in both parties. parties are like big families. to see the fact that jim jordan is out, vocal, the first announced candidate for republican leadership in november, the freedom caucus torpedoed kevin mccarthy's bid for speaker last time which is how we got paul ryan. now to see an announced member of that freedom caucus running it will be interesting heading into the fall. elizabeth: how would he get support from establishment candidates, talking about jim jordan. how will

kevin mccarthy was running. he had to drop out. paul ryan. paul ryan, to his credit, he was dragooned into the speaker's chair because he was the only one who could build consensus. when jim jordan come and it wasn't the whole freedom caucus. it was 11 members of the freedom caucus that found these articles of impeachment against rod rosenstein over something that plenty of republicans -- i don't know, maybe the majority of republics in congress, they think they are off-base. not only is the speaker not supporting it but the findings of the senate intelligence committee and many others have said the tree they are barking up, it's the wrong tree. you are going to the wrong place on this. there's a lot of credible voices opposed to what they are seeking as it relates to rosenstein. to launch the impeachment proceeding in what looks like -- i give them the benefit of the doubt. this may have been beyond jim jordan's control. the whole time this is pure coincidence to launch the impeachment proceeding on the same day that you announce her candida

but at the same time kevin mccarthy has been someone referred to as the trump whisperer.o was willing to go to the white house and deliver the president his favorite colored gum balls or candies or whatever they were to try to curry favor with this president. so it is a good question to see which side the president himself comes down on, if he does. >> we're actually hearing that was actual willy star bursts, not gum balls. >> reporter: starbursts, my apologies. >> facts matter, my friend. heidi przybyla for us. good to talk to you. we will see you on "morning joe" in a bit. >> thanks, heidi. >>> president trump was silent on a development yesterday that seemed sure to grab his attention as the man known as the financial gate keeper of the presume business empire has reportedly been ordered before a federal grand jury. the "wall street journal" reports allen weisselberg was subpoenaed by the southern district of new york in the michael cohen investigation. now, sources familiar with the probe told the journal that weisselberg is considered a witness. last year weisselberg

this has largely been seen as kevin mccarthy's race to lose.here was a question about really is the underlining motivation, is this a way for jim jordan to turn the page from the scandal he's been dealing with or could it be a preview to a speaker run? now it appears that he also is going to throw his hat in the ring as we've just reported. so we help to get to talk to him some more about that and we'll of course bring you those details as we know them, andrea. >> robert costa, as betsy de la vega was saying, mueller himself does not seem to be affected. rod rosenstein, when we saw him in aspen in his speech, is standing firm. everyone is poised. what's going to happen in august, mueller, knowing that he's got to do something before the election period, are we going to hear something in the next a couple of weeks? >> he's going to have to make a decision, robert mueller will, whether he's going to subpoena or not, if the president continues to drag his feet on making a decision whether he would sit for an interview with the mueller investigator

so what if kevin mccarthy looks like a likely person to replace paul ryan. jim jordan in particular trying to do here in terms of leverage? >> well, here's the thing. kevin mccarthy is certainly a friend of president trump's, peter, but he's viewed as being suspect by at least some -- certain members of the far right conservative wing, of which jim jordan is a part. so jim jordan's run really is the latest play by conservative members of congress here to really push for more leeway should republicans keep control of the house come november. now, we're not entirely sure that will happen yet, but jordan's run really gives members of the conservative freedom caucus more room to push for committee positions and leadership roles. percolating in the background is this scandal, this controversy that when he was an assistant wrestling coach decades ago that he ignored credible accusations of sexual abuse by a medical doctor treating athletes there. when he was asked about it, he said members of the caucus who know that story have looked through it but that will be s

kevin mccarthy, the house majority leader is really sort of in the focus here because he's right there in the vantral ey where you're talking about farmers that produce almonds, citrus, that go to the european union, chna and mexico. those are our big trading partners. they're not going to get any big pie of that $12 billion aid which by the way is not popular with a lot of republicans. they're calling it gold plate it is welfare for some of thesefa ers. this is going to be the issue here is how much doarrs not only here in california but in other places where trump and the blicans are going to need the support come november. >> if we think about ways that the republicans couln step their own economic message, it seems to me the imposition ofar fs would probably be the worst thing they could do. you talk about thin slow the economy as we look toward the end o 2018 and 2019, the end of tariffsifcould be siant especially as we get toward the end of the year and any positive benefit from thes tariffs washed away. and we begin to see us come off he sugar high from the tax cuts, how does th

tweets, if donald trump failed to stand up to putin in front of the press, what makes you think kevin mccarthy, mitch mcconnell, and republicans in washington will defend us from a foreign adversary's attack? they've done nothing. it's on us to vote out the sell-outs. and rrp senator lindsey graham sent out several messages about the summit writing -- missed opportunity by president trump to firmly hold russia accountable for 2016 meddling and deliver a strong warning regarding future elections. this answer by president trump will be seen by russia as a sign of weakness and create far more problems than it solves. senator graham also tweeted, finally, if it were me, i'd check the soccer ball for listening devices and never allow it in the white house. senator graham referring to the soccer ball that president putin gave to president trump during the joint news conference. you can watch all of the news conference. we're going to show it tonight at 9:00 p.m. eastern here on c-span. in the meantime, here are some of their remarks. watch part of the news conference between the two leaders before t

c he, kevin mccarthy says basically i am the back channel between the president and congress.kind of flippant. it's more of -- almost an ins e insider game of we get you're basically trying to do the bait and switch, the smoke and mirrors, look at me over here because i have serious problems as home. >> kevin mccarthy didn't have the votes last time to become speaker. does he have them this time? >> he has definitely worked to try to gain this time which is a lot of what the close relationship with trump -- that closest relationship with trump should, in theory, help them with and has worked since the last three years since his failed attempt to become -- to succeed john boehner. he's worked to create these relationships with the freedom caucus so they'll be less of a nuisance to him as leader. it's clear that, i mean, jordan's candidacy just shows you right there that mccarthy didn't do enough -- >> was it a winnable fight, though? i mean, was there any world in which -- >> let's be honest, there's nothing mccarthy could do. the whole point of -- it seems like the whole point

kevin mccarthy is here with his review. what do you think? >> it is 2:20 in the morning.possible fallout, this film is a huge film, this franchise has been incredible, it has gotten better as it has gone on. one thing i love about tom cruise is he does his own stunts, there is a stunt where he legitimately is jumping out of an airplane 25,000 feet on his own, catching up to a camera operator to stay in focus during the shot. they did this stunt over 105 times. a handful of those stunts done at 25,000 feet, the other at 18,000 feet. this movie is a direct sequel to rogue nation, the fifth film in the franchise, christopher quarry back as the director to direct this film, henry cavil, tom cruise, rebecca ferguson, a great cast and the shot you just saw where he jumped and hit that building, he actually broke his ankle during that sequence and got up and continued to run out of frame and that shot remains in the movie so you see him limping off camera they put production on hold and continued to shoot the movie. to me tom cruise understands what audiences are paying to see a

house majority leader kevin mccarthy here to weigh in on that pick coming up.: we're back with a fox news alert. president trump as you saw, last night, 9:00 p.m. live picked judge brett kavanaugh as the next supreme court justice and now his confirmation, you know the confirmation process begins at the podium. he gave, judge kavanaugh gave, before the judge spoke though president trump said it is about the rule of law. listen to the president. >> it is my honor and privilege to announce that i will nominate judge brett kavanaugh to the united states supreme court. [applause] i know the people in this room very well. they do not stand and give applause like that very often. what matters is not a judge's political views but whether they can set aside those views to do what the law and the constitution require. i am pleased to say that i have found, without a doubt, such a person. the rule of law is our nation's proud heritage, and the senate now has the chance to protect this glorious heritage by sending judge brett kavanaugh to the united states supreme court.

this is his idea of returning -- >> i think kevin mccarthy was the one who really wanted to put it onher way we got them on record. even cures tangelo brand who is one of my senators has supported abolishing i.c.e.. she comes from an area near a city where we have so many issues with crime. lou: we don't have time to go into the list of how many way she has inserted her politics. it's extraordinary. speaking of absurd policies the national left-wing media goes after the president because they thought he should have been a high school sophomore bumping up against the leader of russia with 6500 nuclear warheads. i mean who are these people? would have they become and what is going to be the result here? we are watching the democratic party move left. the national left-wing media is going to arrive there before that. >> the media is ridiculous and the media's not doing its job. they are supposed to be providing us with the information we need to make decisions. we are in a self-governing republic and they keep saying democracy, democracy. we are dependent on this government and the peopl
