which the former house speaker talked about what it was like to negotiate with president obama and kratz on any legislation. [video clip] >> i am negotiating with the white house and i've got no position. because my guys would not vote for anything. some of these members, i'm not quite sure what they are for. they are against everything, but i've never been able to determine what they are for. when you are in the majority party, you've got a responsibility to govern, not just make noise. >> boehner is describing a system still in place where ideologues create a culture of fear. >> a good member tried to do the right thing and sometimes it was hard to do the right thing because they were hearing from the far right, or the crazy right, the knucklehead right, that they were sellouts. they didn't want to be accused of that, so it put all of these members in a really tough spot. host: that is from john boehner the former house speaker. our phone lines are open. republicans, (202)-748-8001. democrats, (202)-748-8000. bob is joining us from tennessee on the republican line. welcome to the conve

kavanaugh and barrett and these judges are going to follow the law instead every right the law. , kratz don't like this. they lost their grip on the supreme white. it is the final stop. it is the final backstop to stop democrats from total control of our country. they have the white house, they have the senate, they have the house. one thing keeping them in check is an independent supreme court and judges sherry, and they don't like that, so they want to change the rules. pedro: you are probably aware of this legislative effort by senator ed markey and others to expand the court. they appeared in front of the court to make their case. i want you to listen to a little bit of what they had to say and then get your response to it. senator markey: republicans stole two seats on the supreme court and it is now up to us to repair that damage. our democracy is in jeopardy today because the supreme court's sit standing -- court's standing is sorely damage. the way we repair it is straightforward, we undo the damage republicans have done by restoring balance and we do it by adding four seats to

businesses that were directly impacted but now it appears that their relief also went to dozens of wrister kratz that's right the latest data shows that at least 50 nobles including dukes earls and wide counts turn a public funds in order to pay staff to maintain their mass of the states and their multimillion dollar art collection so joining me now to this just the latest scandal is jeffrey tucker editorial director of the american institute for economic research ok jeffrey not only did these individuals come from historically wealthy families but some of them were even members of the house of lords in parliament so they were already getting paid by taxpayers is this just adding an extra bonus. you know we're going to fit into this next year discovery channel after scandal after scandal you know what happened in the early days you know after after the pandemic in the lockdowns came there was a sense of governments like oh no we've made it impossible for people to make money for well to come from what have you to do what have you to do and so it was you have billions hundreds of billions of doll

as i said earlier in the show kratz are not going to pass a 15 min wage for their full of it. and unfortunately i was right about that. i can give you 20 other things like that. so i give you that as background for number one, i have no idea who is going to win the next election. i almost never say that. but right now, we are in a very unstable time. and it could be biden. biden might not run. it could become, harrison could be trump, trump might not run it could be halley it could be tucker carlson it could be nina turner. the could be jamaal i do not know i do not know if noon tells you they know they don't. you can logically see if the outcome is going to be.ti the reason i am right about all most all the legislation is because it's about the money. it's not at all complicated you can figure who has more money and then you will know just as well as i know who's win. to what about gay-rights? because in that case democrats have more made than the republicans. use of the republicans have t more money because they were willing to do anything a behalf of the corporate friends.

she is right in saying the democrat kratz exert pressure. al franken resigned. of folks regretted that action, not least of which, al franken. it is about toughing it out in politics. project, deflect, and play the victim card. which is what matt gaetz did this weekend. he is all of a sudden a victim for being under investigation for sex trafficking and other claims, that the trump justice department did. and that's what i think speaks to the deeper sickness in our politics, it's this play the victim after you have been credibly accused and see if you can raise more money from the base. >> incredible. matt gaetz playing the victim. i think that's putting it best right there. john, margaret, great to have you on. we appreciate it. >> take care. >> stay well. >>> up next, why experts are still urging caution as the u.s. hits a record number of covid vaccine doses administered in one day. you are live in the "cnn newsroom." ♪ goodbye. ♪ na na na na... ♪ hey hey hey. ♪ goodbye. ♪ na na na na ♪ na na na na... the world's first six-function multipro tailgate. availabl

the moderate republicans and the moderate, kratz almost had to work together, because southerners in those days, although they were democrats, many of them came out of that old southern tradition back in those days, who had yet passed civil rights legislation. party rules had not changed to prohibit segregated delegations, so at least on the civil rights issues and a lot of other issues, you couldn't make any headway down there. so you had to cut across party lines. of course at that point, the republican party had the lincoln tradition of being solid on civil rights. some of that has diminished, but at that time, it was fairly easy to put together enthusiastic coalitions, not just paste jobs, on the civil rights act. richard: and yet i assume you established friendships with southern democrats. mr. mondale: absolutely. on agriculture things, you would find ways work together. i served on the ag committee, as did bob dole, and we all worked with southerners. yes, we would find ways to work together. and that would seem to me that there was bitterness even there. sometimes when the ci

the auto kratz will not win the future. there is some belief, a philosophy within the president's foreign policy team as well, that the question of american democracy is actually at stake around the world. that president xi is saying your type of government doesn't work. you guys argue. you can't get anything done. by the way, while you guys are all arguing in congress, we're building-- you know, we're way ahead of you technologically, militarily, all of those things. so they not only believe a way of making america better but we may lose our superpower status if we don't get things done in congress. >> you're so right, norah. i think the entire speech was i want to prove government still works. and i'm reading just directly off the text. "we have to prove democracy still works, that our government still works and can deliver for the people." it really seems like these first 100 days and this entire speech is a proof of concept that joe biden's idea about proving that government is us and we can make government work, this w
