klobuchar: mr. president, are we in a quorum call? the presiding officer: we are. ms. klobuchar: i ask that that be vitiated. the presiding officer: without objection. ms. klobuchar: mr. president, i rise with many of my colleagues today to mark a new era for patients in this country. last year we decided that enough is enough, and we put an end to the sweetheart deal that led drug companies charge seniors on medicare whatever they wanted for some of the most common lifesaving and life-improving prescription meds on the market. now the big pharma companies are trying to stop this legislation with absurd lawsuits. and i'll talk about that effort in a moment. but for now, let me say unequivocally allowing medicare to negotiate lower prices is a victory for seniors, a victory for taxpayers, a victory for patients and their families, a victory for america. mr. president, thank you for your work on this as the senator from vermont, when you were the house member for vermont. you led this bill in the hous

my conversation with senator amy klobuchar. a few thoughts about her republican colleagues talking about a re-brand of the term pro-life. and something tells me she does too. ♪ ♪ ♪ so according to mark meadows, mark meadows was just doing his job. setting up a call so his boss could pressure the georgia secretary of state into finding him some votes. so that is just typical run-of-the-mill chief of staff stuff, nothing to see here, just doing my job. at least that's been his argument to get his case moved to federal court, and if he'd been successful he may have had a more favorable jury pool. so there were some stakes for him, or in the dreams narrow for meadows, it could've meant dismissal of his case altogether. but, late on friday, a judge in atlanta flatly rejected his request to move his case. it turns out you can't just claim all of your alleged crime was under the big umbrella as politics as usual. the word for a talking point, maybe, but it does not work for the law. it is a massive setback for meadows, who is already

senator klobuchar. sen. klobuchar: i'm looking forward to hearing from us is. i did want to point out the argument nothing has been considered for eight years or something like that. when you look at the arc of time on this when president bush was in, he wanted desperately republican president to get this done. under graham was in the group that works -- senator graham was in th group that worked on this. you fast-forward to obama. even during president trump, there was a major effort made by senator round if you remember that was maybe wet center graham was eating at when he talked about a more limited bill. it had funding for the border. significant funding for the border. it also included more work on work permits and visas. something people on this committee, a number of people on both sides of the aisle carry care about very much. dreamers work covered under the bill. temporary status. i don't member every detail but what i do remember is we had enough republican senators to get over the line. the house was going to pass it and unfortunately president trum

[ laughter ] these two people, the only people who've ever vacationed from that area. [ laughter ] so what mayor pete needs is someone who's rough, dirty, maybe even a little bit homophobic, someone with some good old-fashioned uncle power. and for that i say, pete, i'd like you to take a good hard look at a fellow named mel gibson.

i want hakeem jeffries and amy klobuchar to run. host: turning to campaign 2024. who do you support on the republican side? guest: nikki haley. nikki haley is a proven leader. she has international experience , she has had a great run as governor, she is a true conservative. if you want somebody who will get the country back on track, it is nikki haley. we need eight years of a young person leading this country and she will do for america what she did for south carolina. i know her and it would be a great day. i do think, as you can see what she has done after the debates, she's going to continue to go up in the polls. she will be the first female president and it could not come quick enough. because joe biden is derailing this country in a way that i've never seen. if the other people calling are happy with a border out of control, 5 million people have already come across illegally, if he likes that a crime in the streets and inflation, paying more for gas and everything else, we have a disagreement. but nikki haley will get this country back on track. host: why

senator klobuchar. >> thank you very much. i chair the rules committee. we are working on a number of pieces of legislation. i really appreciate working with senator hawley on some of this. one bill was watermarked, in making sure that the election materials produced by a.i.. i don't think that's enough. when you look at the fact that someone is going to watch a fake joe biden or fake donald trump or fake elizabeth warren, all this has really happened, and then not know who the person's, and not know if it's really them. it's not going to help at the very end. it might for some things. by the, way that was produced by a, i hope you saw the little mark at the end that says that. could you address that, professor russell? how within the clear confines of the constitution for things like that, we will have to do more than just watermark? >> i do want to be careful not to veer into, once again, the ministry of truth idea. but i think clear labeling, i mean, if you look at what happened with credit cards, for example, it used to be that credit cards came with

potentially leapfrogging over grech gretchen withmerit, clamy klobuchar and kamala harris. he was tapped by the biden/harris campaign to be in the spin room post gop debate and logic tdictates that would have sought clearance before accepting the high-profile desantis debate on fox. why would biden want him in those roles? perhaps for the very simple reason that newsom is willing and thinks quickly on his feet. or maybe the added benefit is that biden gets to watch newsom have his tires kick ed in a debate on a national stage testing his medal, because the president is not blind to the consistency of the polling data showing the way that he, biden, is perceived by americans. nor death to the calls of some that he stand aside in 2024 or unaware of his owner mortality. a reminder we must all think about with the passing of senator dianne feinstein. still to come, the final results of the poll question. go to smerconish.com and answer this. is it appropriate for lirmt to monitor social media to prevent and solve crimes? >>> so there's the result of today's poll -- whoa. is it
