. >> you see senator james langford right there, mouthing that's true.gford was one of the cowriters of that bill, and pretty upset that republicans torpedoed it. john, this is an issue that's top of mind for a lot of voters, not just in border states but across the country. what's your sense of who voters are blaming for the immigration crisis? >> it's a great battle right now. everybody's trying to point the finger of blame at somebody else. but i will tell you what you saw last night in that remarkable communication with senator langford, where they were literally almost, the president and he were almost talking to one another, it seemed, and then the senator nodded his approval. he said that's true. that's powerful for biden. i know that this is an insider thing, not everybody is watching for the camera cut away state of the union address, but what that suggests to me is that if biden keeps talking about it in this way he has an ability to get through to a substantial section of potentially even swing voters on this issue. and one final thing i'll sa

negotiated by a conservative senator, james langford, that would have been the toughest law. and donald trump told them to, why? donald trump wants chaos at the border. i like katie britt a lot, but you didn't hear her say in her speech one thing what republicans are for because many of the ideas that republicans actually think would work like putting more border patrol officers on the border, like giving the president the power to shut down the border when crossings get too high, were in that bill and they all voted against it because they don't want to fix the problem. they are addicted to talking about the problem, but they don't want to do anything to fix it. i thought the president did a great job of calling out the emperor as having no clues tonight. on that issue he hit it square in the head. >> and it was one of his biggest applause of the night. we have a simple choice, we can fight about fixing the border or fix it. i'm ready to fix it, send me the border bill now. senator, there was one other moment when the president was talking about this issue, and this bill tha

senator langford was nodding in agreement during that part of the speech because he knows it's true.is proposing to do is going to be the toughest immigration proposals that have been on the table in a long time and the problem is that donald trump has tanked that deal because he told people in the house he didn't want it. >> shannon: whether they've been nodding from langford, the speaker was -- >> dana: speaker said he doesn't have a good poker face but the reason biden wants the bill, doug, is because for three years, after the executive orders he put forward, they dismantled those policies and that's how he ended up with 9 million additional illegal immigrants and all these stories we're talking about. the fox news poll just most recent one, immigration at a 66% disapproval for president biden and the current views on biden versus frequency versus trump four years ago coming to immigration, negative 47 for biden and trump's edge was plus 45. that's all to say to matt's point, can biden and the state of the union say republicans are to blame here erase three years if republicans c

president biden had that deal with con-- senator langford from oklahoma. conservative senators. they had the deal to do exactly that. they had the deal to do what republicans have been claiming they want done for years. and re-- donald trump right there the same donald trump talking about aliens and same donald trump talking about poisoning the blood of americans and same donald trump saying we are letting the terrorists in from african jails, and hannibal lectors, well, he is lying of course but if we were, just for argument sake, if we were, the only way they would be getting through now is because of donald trump. because donald trump said kill this bill. it will help joe biden if we actually shut down the border. and i will take the blame. so donald, we blame you. we blame you because it's your fault you said you would take the blame. and so, he kills the bill, and then he cynically goes outing out about how the boarder is opening, mike. i am curious, how many americans are too stupid to tie the the two things together? >> it's a good question. >> i me

, senator langford from oklahoma, that they sat down and hammered out a deal after the president wentd said everything was on the table. i am willing to negotiate. they came up with a bill and bits and pieces of it were leaking out that were so bad from the president space perspective that they were raising -- saying if it becomes law it will set back immigration policy for a long time but the president said we need to do something. they come up with the bill and donald trump made a phone call or put out some social media post and said, don't do it. republicans refused to take yes for an answer. they gave president biden the perfect thing to go before the nation and say -- i am trying. i was part of this deal. i gave them everything they wanted and they still said no. those people are not serious. i think if he cameras that message time and time again i think it will break through. geoff: and part of what jonathan described was on full display at the border yesterday. president biden invited president trump to call on republicans to support this by heart -- this bipartisan border deal

you have langford sitting there, saying, you know, it's true. he speaks the truth. >> occasionally you will see of runaway game at the nba, and it's a 20 point game and you will see you the other team, when like lebron james does an incredible dunk the other team they all like to be applauding, there's a little bit how, we are not going to win this game and we will get them tomorrow but that was an incredible dunk. i'm not comparing joe biden to p lebron james but with lindsey graham there was a little bit like, this was not our night, as this is his night, he beat us, we will get him tomorrow but there's a little bit of that appreciative sense of like okay, we will fight this tomorrow, not today. >>> primetime weekend to continues. ahead with my colleague joy reed. >> president biden called out model republicans hailing the violence from january 6th as heroes, to real heroes join me next, stay with us. have heart failure with unresolved symptoms? it may be time to see the bigger picture. heart failure and seemingly unrelated symptoms like carpa

it is because of him that the deal that senator murphy and langford and sinema negotiated were done onnever made it to the house. and he's proud of that fact. this is an extraordinary opportunity for the president to build on his accomplishments. and to show that the way to restoring order, security, and safety at the border is to show that there's more legal pathways for immigrants and asylum seekers to come here. for, example when he used his executive pull authority for nicaraguans, and, haitians and cubans on authorized options from those three groups went down 92%. he has shown that he could win on this issue based on everything in his power to try to work with republicans today, even offering to work with former president trump on his issue. it is time for democrats and the president to seize this initiative on this issue. and when with it. >> we have an analysis of crime statistics, that nbc news has done showing that overall crime levels dropping in the cities that have received the most migrants, when texas spends its money, because it spent a lot of it to transport migrants t

you have langford saying it's true. and so i don't know. >> speaks the truth. >> speaks the truth. >> occasionally in aan nba game you will see one team beating another team by a lot and you will see the other team when like lebron james does a dunk the other team will like like to be applauding like we're not going to win right now wow that was an incredible dunk. but, with lindsey graham it was like this is not the night not our night this is his night he beat us we'll get him tomorrow but there was that appreciative sense we'll fight it tomorrow not today. >> primetime weekend continues ahead with my colleague joy reid. . >> president biden called out maga republicans hailing the violent january 6th insurrection as heros. who are the real heros of that day? right now you can get a free footlong at subway. just buy any footlong in the app and get one free. just scan the qr code and enter promo code flbogo. it only works from the other side of the screen, buddy. you still got a land line in your house. order now in the

she and langford were coming together. she has an accomplishment she could have talked about.cause you know what the young ones are doing out there on the socials. to me, she was giving the trad- wife trend. i'm not sure if people are familiar with it, but that to me is when she was trying to give. >> this is the idea that house with very in this current century. you are a mother and it's sort of exaggerated. like you grind your own flower. you make your own bread. you homeschool your kids. it's very kind of exaggerated. the idea here is to push women into the kitchen, right? what i think is interesting about watching her was that you really saw policy wise very hard to defend a lot of this stuff. you've got republicans on abortion, women who are having miscarriage is being sent to parking lot to wait until they are sick enough to get treatment. states trying to ban an iud, the morning-after pill, saying they're going to come after birth control. it is very hard as a woman to defend his policies. behind her telling a trafficking story about something that happened in mexico du

i respectfully believe that what senator langford put forward was as tough a border deal as could getis congress and next congress because unless there is a, you know, 80 member shift one way or the other in either political part. politics is the art of the possible. i think it was a good deal. i agree with marco we need to get the money to china and taiwan. we need to get the money to humanitarian and for israel. but i think the issue that i have been -- is most wrapped around is if we walk away from the people of ukraine at this point, after in the last two years the ukrainians with our help and the europeans' help literally the cost of less than 3% of our defense budget have eliminated 87% of the russian preinvasion ground force, 63% of the tanks, 32% of the armored personnel carriers if we don't stand by ukraine right now, the rest of the world should never trust us again. this notion that these authoritarian nations are watching each other, people say xi is a threat and don't believe if presidents putin is successful in ukraine and that will put nato and american troops in harm's

as good a guy a senator langford was that bill would still allow 2 million migrants to come into the public doesn't support at this point it was too far left with all due respect to senator langford and the president will say, we can supplement that with administrative actions the public doesn't want that. the president has to close the borders effectively and he could say asylum applicants could be processed out of country but i fear the president who is sensitive to the criticisms of the progressive left and is beholden to the far progressive left which is different from when i was serving on the oversight committees i fear the president will try to have it both ways try to satisfy everyone and at the end of the day he will lose that argument because the public is so upset that the democratic party and the president have moved so far left on this issue. >> gillian: with eight months left on the calendar until the general election less like an eternity in politics but is not very long in terms of policymaking. could biden even start to turn things around between now and then? >> on

you saw senator langford sitting there agreeing with the president when he said, i had a bill and repository's wrote it and you tore it up. >> i think that we have some sound from the president talking about vladimir putin. this might be what they are talking about? >> my predecessor, a former republican president tells putin, quote, do whatever the you want. that is a quote. the former president actually said that. bowing down to the russian leader. it is outrageous, dangerous, and unacceptable. >> that was unifying moment for me. >> i would agree. it speaks volumes to where republicans and the house of representatives, apparently joe biden talking about vladimir putin trampling on the sovereignty of the democratic nations abroad, our allies, members of nato, that it is somehow partisan. >> you expect them to be triggered. that is the whole point, to be triggered. >> that is part of it. when you're talking about the partisan peace, there were a number of times, over a dozen, there is a sharp contrast from the president with his predecessor on a range of issues. from democracy, to reproductive

and also sort of -- >> well, with james langford silently mouthing it's true, it's true. that's the lead republican negotiator on the bill that his party is booing. i mean unbelievable. >> right, then you have a bunch of people in ridiculous costumes. marjorie taylor greene, troy nells. they looked -- >> clowns? >> yeah, clowns is another good one. >> clowns is an alex wagner word tonight. but i do think, jen, it's a virtue cycle. the stronger he is today, the stronger he gets on the campaign trail. that wasn't the state of the union, but it was biden on the campaign trail. >> yes, you see that he just feels like he probably has a lot of self-confidence coming out of it last night. it doesn't mean that he won't make mistakes, and he even made mistakes last night. but i think that i don't even know that we should expect to see polls improve out of this speech. i mean i know the president very much wants that. there is something going on in the world right now. ratings are just very low in general. i don't know if that will really change. it doesn't mean he could get reelec

i can't believe i'm spacing out on his -- langford from oklahoma that they sat down and hammered outr the president wept before the nation and said everything is on the table. i'm trying to negotiate. they negotiated. they came with a bill that bits and pieces were leaking out that were so bad from the president's biggest perspective that they were raising hell about if this becomes law, this is going to set immigration policy back for a long time. we knee to do something. they come up with the bill. and what happened? donald trump made a phone call or put out some social media post and said don't do it. republicans refused to take yes an answer and gave president biden the perfect thing to go before the nation and say, i'm trying. i was part of this deal. they -- i gave them basically everything they want. and they still said no. those people are not serious. i think if he hammers that message time and time again. i think lit break through. and part of what jonathan just described to us on full display yesterday, president biden invited president trump to call on republicans to supp

they need to be in lockstep, democrats, i saw james langford, who is ush approximating this bill ahead, your party rejected, a lot of american people rejected. marco rubio tried to do this and he realized his base did not like it. you got to let it go and figure out what to do to move the country and your party forward. it can't be siding with democrats and nodding as president is giving this speech bashing republicans. >> joey: gop divide in style in general is detriment for them, they have to get together and be unified. >> brian: that speech unified republicans, how many more will endorse trump by end of day? who would have thought they would be in lockstep. liz cheney and adam kinzinger. >> lawrence: what is your red line? >> ainsley: i think the party is connected when it comes to big issues, the economy, shutting down the border. his approval rating is 38%, is that what it was? 38%. 86% of americans say he is too old. most ofern ms want to do something about the border, that includes democrats. republicans are united on economy, inflation and the border. like you said, democrats

weather solvent and we had a wonderful chance in february when conservative republican senator james langfordegotiate with democrats and the white house and his own caucus to come up with a packet of measures really significant measures to control the border. then after we basically had a deal, donald trump si don't vote for this deal, we would rather complain about this for the next nine months then fix the problem here donald trump wasn't willing to let more fennel come over the border killing more americans to try again a political edge rather than find a solution. we have a good solution on the table and we should act to do in a bipartisan way. >> shannon: should they use exec of action he has available to him to stop fennel and do it he can over the next nine months weather he's an x resident again or not? >> i think he can do two things. encourage him to use executive actions. out think he can do everything in our bipartisan bill by executive order but there is probably a subset of things he can do i think his team is considering it. the other thing is the appropriations bill we passed

there is a senate i partisan bill negotiated with the secretary at the table, senator langford from oklahomaable, there is a bill there but nothing has happened because donald trump said, don't do it though the bill has everything in it the republicans had been demanding for years. key among those things from the secretary's point of view i would think is the money. the money that would be made available to homeland security to hire the personnel and staff needed to deal with the asylum cases and the crossings over the border. if the republicans and american people want something done at the border, they would demand congress passed the senate bill. amna: do you see congress taking any action or do you think the president should just take the theatrical step and sign an executive order saying that he is doing what he can? >> i think you should sign the executive order. there are certain things i think he could do. remain in mexico. more security. money is a problem. he has taken executive action on all sorts of things like student relief -- student debt relief. jonathan's colleague david ign

james langford talked about the real concern and how many people have come across targeted on the terrorism watch list. listen here. >> it is our southern border right now a major threat. what we've seen is 50 people on the terror watch list in the last 4 1/2 months we've seen more than 10,000 people come across our southern border. called special interest aliens. these are individuals being trafficked in from all over the world coming at the homeland that is a major issue for us. >> dana: what's the border patrol supposed to do to try to catch these people on the terrorism watch list? >> the senator put it out very well. this will be a public hearing talking about the threats that are coming into the country and this is exactly what we have been talking about since this administration on day one last started peeling back our security measures. we know there are threats around the world happening. the intelligence officials will talk about it. we have to free the hands of border patrol agents and continue securing the border whether it will be infrastructure or technology. we need to make s

and i thought that what we had in front of us carefully crafted bill by senator james langford and othersght it was a great starting point. yes, this president can do a lot. just look at the border under donald trump. it was under control. so there are things that we can do through executive action. president biden can do those things right now. however, as you look at the asylum laws, just as you pointed out, only those things can change in law by congress. so we do need to come together. we need to figure out a path forward. we may need to make it more stringent, tougher for those that are just travelling to the border, make it much tougher for them to claim that their governments are persecuting them. absolutely. >> aishah: we have to leave it there. thank you very much for joining us. thanks, senator. >> thanks, aishah. >> sandra: shake-up at the rnc, live in texas for the big rnc meeting where the new changes were just voted on. >> aishah: national guard calling in to fight crime in new york city subways, but critics say the real solution is just fixing the state's bail laws and the

asou know, our colleagues from oklahoma senator langford was talking about women using dangerous chest people confused about what he was talking about. i wanted to ask you. senator warren has been a great advocate in -- for women in these areas as well. this topic is about the safe, effective alternative to surgical abortion and whether or not this medicine responsible for more than 50% of that is what the court case is all about. it stems from the overturning of roe v. wade. we are already seeing the consequences of that ruling playing out nationwide with wocare that they need and deser. if the antiabortion activists get their way with this drug that is currently before the court, it would effectively be a nationwide abortion bid. now, you and i served together in the other body, the house of representatives and quite some time before you came, i chairedg on what seemed to be this drug back in 1990. the issue that we focused on then is still the issue of today . that is, are these decisions going to be made on the basis of science or are they going to be made on thei started arguing

you have langford sitting there saying, you know, it's true. so i don't know if we -- he speaks the truth. >> occasionally at an nba game you will see a runway game -- >> down. >> 20-point game and you'll see the other team when like lebron james does an incredible dunk the other team will like -- they all like to be applauding. a little bit of like we're not going to win, we'll get them tomorrow, but now that was an incredible dunk. i'm not comparing joe biden to lebron james, but with lindsey graham there was a little bit like this is not the night, this was not our night. this is his night. he beat us. we'll get him tomorrow there was a little bit of appreciative sense like we'll fight this tomorrow, not today. >> i want to deal with the structural work he did. the axis on which the election will be decided are issues like choice and aa borgs. i have to sneak in a break, but i want to show you some of his work in that area. we'll have more when we come back from the president's address in which he calls out to their faces in front of him, th

i wanted to set the record straight because senator langford was talking about dangerou■ys chemicals about this. if access to this drug is rolled back, which is what may decisiod that do to access to health care for women all over the country red and blue states? there was all this discussion about how the states would be able to pfashion but now we havn with respect to this drug, if the way, they could put restrictions were completely make it impossible to get access to this drug at all and every quarter of the u.s., but i would like to ask the secretary, give me your assessment about what a federal ban would■j do for a sae abortion? >> first, i think it is important that when you say safe and effecve saying that because he believed it because science has shown that this drug for more than two decades has not only been safe but effective. if it were to be lost to americans who need it as medication, it would further reduce access to care. my daughter's have fewer access to care that their mother had, they will these further access to the care that they need. need that more women pla

. >> james langford will be mouthing, it's true. that's the lead republican negotiator on the bill that his party is brewing. unbelievable. >> than you had a bunch of people in ridiculous costumes. they just looked like shambolic. clouds is another. >> clouds is the tonight word. i do think, jen, it's a virtuous cycle. the stronger he is the stronger he gets. even today on the campaign trail and in philadelphia. that wasn't the state of the union. that was just biden on the campaign trail and it was a market difference from how he sounded in previous weeks. >> i think he probably has a lot of self-confidence. it doesn't mean that he will make mistakes and even made mistakes last night. but i think that i don't know that we should expect to see holes and prove out of the speech. i know the president very much wants that. there's something going on in the world right now leader favorability ratings are really low in general. i don't know if that would really change. it does mean that -- reelected with low favorability ratings. but it

about it that specific detail he was going to talk about the border bill needs the moment with james langfordirming the bill would do a lot a good he botched the name doing what she said it correctly a hundred percent. >> he just said it wrong donald trump called malan you trump melanie. an innocent victim's over the fact he left the borders open a bad thing to be obsessed with better to be murdered than obsess over a dead female murder victim then potato chips and you said it was fringe nancy pelosi is in french. >> i'm talking about being uppity about the languages french when you talk to normal people and there are tragedies and it's the unfortunate truth all over the country every single day if i asked you the name the kid in sandy hook or even the survivor sister. >> the president should show respect. >> he doesn't know how to show respect. got the gold star the families who were sitting ducks in afghanistan and that airport he's not sensitive. >> these are your preferences and donald trump was that for use talking about angel mom's right that. mcgriff covered the mass shootings. >> if t

decades negotiated by one of the most conservative members of the senate, oklahoma senator james langfordd donald trump picks up the fen or goes out on his social media platform and says don't do it, don't vote for the bill. and the senators don't. it doesn't even get out of the senate to go to the house where speaker johnson said he was already going to kill it. and so this just speaks to donald trump's complete takeover of the republican party in the house, in the senate, the republican national committee. and some -- some could argue the supreme court, but maybe i shouldn't go that far. >> katty cay, could them not going to the retreat be seen as a sign of speaker johnson's weakness? really, it's hard to imagine this would even happen under kevin mccarthy's tenure. >> yeah, it's a nice hotel. i've been there. it's hard to imagine they're not going because they don't want to spend time at the green breyer. they're not going as that anonymous member of congress republicans said because they don't want to spend time withy each other because there's so much -- we talk about the dysfunction

he was very earnest and wanted to work with senator langford from oklahoma. he was going to work with senator langford and he said that he would get behind this bill and it was republicans donald trump, speaker johnson it is now their liability and it's now their fault about anything you see that's happening along the border that is immigration related in the media needs to start saying that more and more. it is their problem. we try to fix it and thehost: republican say it was president biden overturning a series of immigration efforts at the start of his term that in their mind could lead to issues regarding the southern border now. is there any validity to that? guest: no validity to that. donald trump was president of the united states before joe biden also had large numbers of undocumented crossings. president obama who i don't hear republicans giving any credit to had less than donald trump. absolutely, we are not going to give trump any sort of credit whatsoever or say it was policies that biden reverse. we have a broken system that needs to be fixed.

. >> that was a shot of senator langford the republican senator from oklahoma.bipartisan bill on behalf of republicans. he was nodding and mouthing that is true when the president recounted what is they think the good things the president agreed to, republican principles for border control, that were in the bill. and joining us now, texas democratic congressman collin allred. he won the state's democratic primary to face ted cruz in november. i invited senator cruz to join us, and he hasn't agreed to yet, but we hope he will. thanks for being here. congratulations. >> thanks for having me. >> you won the primary but you are a democrat running statewide in texas. you know the record. so what do you do, how do you beat what happened with beto o'rourke and others who tried to take on the republicans in the senate? >> i think part of it is what you just covered. we have had a crisis at the border in texas and in particular when we have these numbers that we've been seeing, it does put a burden on our border communities and the officers. i've talked to them about the

referring to legislation in the senate led by one of the most conservative members of the senate, jim langfordhad said -- who mouthed during that speech, it's true when the president said this will increase border patrol. this will increase judges. this will make the border more secure, and the democrats rise in unison and the republicans sit on their hands. i mean, it's astounding on two fronts. it's astounding in the way he has unified the democratic party around something that is centrist at best. second, though, is the way in which the republicans have committed other malpractice and given away this issue of the border because of their refusal to ever put the country first. now, that was laid out right there in full form. now, the president was also ad libbing, and i think that you saw him really showing his political acumen and his political muscle. that's why what's trending right now on twitter is adderall, all the republicans are claiming that he's hopped up on something because of how energetic he was there last night. >> so you think specifically going back to that moment when he put

nick lalota tweeted, he mocked senator james langford for doing this. did on this bill. and that's the kind of bs people are sick of. if you're going to enflame folks and try to fearmonger. >> his 9-year-old could actually negotiate a bill better than what republicans say is the toughest border security -- maybe the 9-year-old should run, because what langford did was nothing short of extraordinary. >> exactly. and what really infuriates folks is they're not even putting it up for a vote, because they know it would pass. but when lalota mocked it, if you're going to fearmonger and mock it and refuse to fix it, that's a firing offense. >> yeah. >> john, you've only been out there a couple of weeks? >> two weeks. >> and what do you hear across the two weeks going door-to-door and walking around the district about the two gs, the grocery store and the gas station that play an important part in people's lives, added to the kitchen table, where they sit down and write checks to pay off their credit card interest rates, what do you hear about those? and i alw

not throw langford out there with schumer and run around for a month.ico. i'm going to help build this wall. i'm going to put people across the border that commit a felony. they're never going to cross and i want ukraine funding and i want to take care of what's happening in israel. that's not -- that doesn't exist. >> the president has tried to lead. the president has tried to lead. the chaos is causing a lot of angst among the american people. congress is as popular as a root canal. that shouldn't stop congress from addressing the problem instead of facing the american people. you cannot just sit back and say, i want to throw rocks because it will get across the goal line. you've got to lead and the president has been leading on the border. >> jonathan: we've got to take a quick break. when we come back, big news this week on the third party front. it ain't my dad's razor, dad. ay watch it! it's from gillettelabs. this green bar releases trapped hairs from my face... gamechanga! ...while the flexdisc contours to it. so the five blades can get virtuall

, ethical, intelligent republican than james langford, and he said i am willing to get a job done and teamed up with chris murray and kyrsten sinema, and everybody said they would endorse the bill, and trump flies in and says i don't want you to do the deal because it will give a victory to biden and i want to run on the chaos, and he's not disputing that. when the american people hear this message more and more, they will say that's bs and hopefully the democrats can get something done. >> the republicans got the bill they claim they wanted and then rejected it. anything going to change here? >> we are on on the same point, and that is the republicans said there was a problem and a bipartisan solution comes in from the senate and they reject it. they want to have an issue to talk about. i sit on the homeland appropriations, and in the last two cycles we added 2.4 billion to cbp so they can secure the border. if you look at the voter records, two republicans that are suing congress, every single republican voted against that so we could provide more border patrol agents and technology

you had a chance and you want legislation and you saw senator langford sitting there, agreeing with the president when the president said, well, i had a bill and the republican conservative wrote it. and you guys tore it up. >> perhaps i think we do have some sound particularly from the president talking about vladimir putin. i want to maybe, this is what they are talking about. >> okay. >> now my predecessor, a former republican president tells putin, "do whatever the hell you want. "." that's a quote. a former president actually said that bowing down to russian leader. i think it is outrageous and dangerous and unacceptable. >> that is a unifying moment for me. >> i would agree. i think that it speaks volumes to where republicans in the house of representatives or not just house of representatives, but where they are when apparently joe biden talking about vladimir putin trampling on the sovereignty of democratic nations abroad our allies. members of nato that that is somehow partisan. it is not something they agree with. >> you expect something to be triggered, right? that's the whol
