whatever you say about marjorie taylor greene, that is very much who she is. she is not trying to appeal to some group that is other than her, which a lot of these republican candidates, i think, are, essentially. marjorie taylor greene is that person, 100%, no ascends about it, that's part of what they want out of her. she takes office in 2021, she's raised over 7 million, making are one of the most prolific fundraisers in the entire house, that large as does not extended to the candidates she's backing. liz, you wrote a great piece for advice about rounding up folks that believe the election was stolen, or illuminate, who are running for state office. at least 27 states right, we'll elect a new sectors of state. there are 21 people running who think trump won in 2020, have pushed to overturn election results, or spread other lies about the election. how mainstream, or how plausible are these as candidates, or they like at flies and no one's gonna vote for them? >> chris, i would say that some of these people are mainstream, and i do think that some of them, e

certainly nancy pelosi -- has a secret police force known as the dispa cho police, thanks to marjorie taylor greeneaccused nancy pelosi of leading this hit squad. and ilo have a serious question for you here. do the folks at "seinfeld" have grounds to sue marjorie taylor greene because it sounds very similar to soup nazi. i'm going to say this is plagiarism. she watched "seinfeld."sh she saw the soup nazi and now we've got gasoline pa cho police. >> who knew nancy pelosi was the real soup nazi all along. the whole character had to be designed by her and the gazpacho. that's why they couldn't stop the insurrection. they were in the kitchen making their gazpacho. and what could be more evil than releasing cold soup in the dead of winter? that's just mean. that'sof just mean. somebody wants hot soup this time of year. you know, marjorie taylor greene -- >> i actually think that is a war crime. >> once again, there is no bottom. there's no bottom. they can say anything and their base grabs onto it. and as you well know, the moment there is a gazpacho joke, now you're attacking her and this and that and

the difference between goes are in marjorie taylor greene is that greene insulted, spewed anti-semitic comments against district when he seven, miami. i received a lot of calls telling me they were pretty offended because marjorie taylor greene specifically said that the jewish committee had started the california wildfire and that they were responsible for this disaster in this state. i could not have accepted that. but goes are put up a cartoon, which i haven't seen. so what is madame speaker doing playing politics? the american people are not playing politics. they're trying to see how they pay their bills and pay for higher prices in food, and gas. so i think we should stop playing games in washington. and you know something, olivia? just to conclude this conversation, you know, i come from the private sector and i worked in the private sector for 35 years. if i did not produce ratings, i did not have a contract. i think most or many people here in congress should have that experience, going to the private sector, working for a couple years, having to make a salary and deliver some

. >> a few weeks or months ago, marjorie taylor greene said to steve bannon that they represent the basean party. that they're not fringe. they represent the base. republican party. here's congresswoman marjorie taylor greene talking, i think earlier today. >> not only do we have the d.c. jail, the d.c. ghoul dlag, but now we have nancy pelosi's guess patcho police spying on members of congress, the legislative work that we do. spying on our staff and spying on american citizens. this government has turned into something -- >> all right. so that's enough of that. i mean, i guess -- >> the gazpacho police. i assume she men guess attempto police. -- the gestapo police. >> maybe she did it on purpose. >> noble can accuse her of using anti-semitic tropes if she is referring to the gezpacho police. >> i guess she is belittling them? >> in san francisco, they could very a gezpacho police. >> what are the ill port/export? >> are why people siding with that. what is the incentive structure where somebody would say, marjorie taylor greene will cited this. not liz cheney. >> all i can say on that

i haven't even gotten to the battle between kevin mccarthy and marjorie taylor greene. that's a lot. let me tell you. joining me now is david jolly, a former republican congressman from florida and the national chairman of the serve america movement. kirk bardella an adviser to the dccc and spokesman for the house overnight committee. and, oh, yes, here he is, stephanie miller, host of the tellny miller show on sirius xm. oh, yeah. we got the group in the house tonight. so we're going to start with david. david, the state of the union address is coming up in a little over week. you know how that goes and you know what that means. what do you think the state of the union for the republican party is right now? >> well, look, politically speaking, it is a fairly easy spot. they're in the opposition so they just get to oppose and suggest that the world would be better under their leadership. i think democrats face some real challenges. we saw in virginia that even though democrats worked hard on some of their top priorities, they're on the right side of the history when it

so you see these people we -- have people like marjorie taylor greene who are just setting the tone as the lowest common denominator, and it's sad to watch what >> it is beyond shuts who watch be especially when you see someone like congresswoman mace and that's done she pulled going to the trump tower. angelo, i know that reagan earned the name, or the nickname, i should say, tough on ron because criticisms of him rarely seemed to stick. it was also apply to criminal gangsters, you know, and mobsters. but trump truly seems to have taken that ability to another level. i would argue a rogan roy level, if you are familiar with the show succession. you've seen republican officials sensing a momentary weakness to criticize trump after january six, only four to go nowhere. i think that only people like lindsey graham, marco rubio, ted cruz, that list can go on and on. will republicans ever be able to escape the grip of donald trump? >> yeah. we it's not even necessarily -- it's a testament to donald trump. he's managed to turn criticism into feel that he can then used to pump more kinetic e

it comes with marjorie taylor greene also start new controversy after appearing at a conference withnalist themes in florida, where the crowd, led by one of the speakers cheered for putin. when pressed about it, she tried to distance herself. >> i do not know nick point is, never heard him speak, never have seen a video. i do not know what his views are so i am not in line with anything that might be controversial. >> it's a white nationalist group. >> excuse me a minute, i will tell you exactly why i went, i want to talk with him about america first policies. >> with me to discuss right now is democratic strategist jonathan kott, also with me, who is laughing, tropical singleton, political consultant and contributor to the boston globe, has a lot to say. jonathan, we will first go to you because i want to talk about trump's remarks first and president biden, when he reacted, basically calling to trump, calling putin savvy and the genius, in this radio interview. let's listen to a biden said. >> i put as much stock in trump saying that, putin is a genius, as i do when he called himse

>> look, marjorie taylor greene is far from the face and voice of the republican party.his situation and oftentimes are ludicrous and out of sync with not just republicans, but the voice of this country. so using her as a voice of the party is absurd. everyone can look at what's going on with russia and everyone can see that vladimir putin is a dictator, he certainly has bigger plans ahead, and what we need to do is not focus on outlying voices of any party and work on the foreign policy experts and what we can do to stop him. and i think imposing sanctions sooner would have been better, and now more fierce. but certainly unifying with our nato allies and showing a united front against vladimir putin is where the attention and direction of this country needs to be. >> maria, we'll give you time for a quick response. >> boris, actually, marjorie taylor greene seems to be in the mainstream of the republican party as what she does is parrot the republican party's leader, donald trump. and that is the challenge for republicans moving forward. i love alice, but her answers ju

and marjorie taylor greene made the decision to attend that event, just in the last five minutes, justorie taylor greene the shout out. we try to track her down in the halls and cpac today. she avoid to answer any questions, but suggested that those individuals who were at that event last night were patriots, so suggesting that she didn't necessarily align with some of the more controversial, and her words, statements on that stage. >> vaughn, as you're laying that all for us, we are playing the video of you attempting to ask her questions. we also asked former secretary of state, mike pompeo, about his comments about putin. why did he tell you? >> yeah, we had a chance to catch up, or attempt to catch up with the former secretary of state. just earlier this week, he suggested that vladimir putin was savvy, and that he said that he was enormous respect for him. i am just secretary pompeo about those remarks. has the invasion in ukraine was underway. take a listen. >> russians take media has played your words from this week, which called russian president vladimir putin, shrewd, capable

we also have congressman marjorie taylor greene speaking at a white nationalist event.she didn't know the views of the conference and didn't apologize for his appearance. what do you make of that? >> i fully believe, i can see a world where marjorie taylor greene does not know who nick fuentes is, but that's why congresspeople have staffers. if her staff looked at the name of the group and said okay, america first. we believe in america first. let's go and talk at this convention, where it's mostly young people. if she got taken in by a sales pitch, that's bad staff work. the fact she's defending it, saying i did nothing wrong, that's where the real problem comes in, in my opinion. if you can go and speak at a white nationalist group and afterwards try to pivot and spin and say, well, yeah, i did, but i didn't know who it was. and not condemn the things that the person who you were standing next to actually believes, then you are pretty much endorsing that person. and i think that i would hope at least this comes back to haunt her in the future, but given the fact paul

>> marjorie taylor greene. those push-ups are getting to her head.pacho is delicious and should not be confused with anything that has to do with the holocaust. so stop, already. >> she had pelosi had a, quote, gazpacho police, which if anything else is unfair to a great vegetable soup. >> it's despair to a great vegetable soup and is just factually incorrect. i don't know why there's this insatiable need to compare things to a very ugly time in our world history, the holocaust. i don't know why, but it seems to me like marjorie taylor greene and those who i like to call members of the qanon caucus, they like to do that. so when i looked up this morning, i looked at twitter, and all i saw was a caricature of marjorie taylor greene and soup, which is what i thought -- now i know it was gazpacho, and i didn't understand, so i had to go and check it out. i agree with ida. fall back. >> fall back. i appreciate your point. yes, we all know about hyperbole, but it is a really ugly reach that happens way too often. symone, as i mentioned, welcome to msnbc.

we were senator mitt romney yesterday on the sunday shows call gosar and marjorie taylor greene morons it's unacceptable. i spoke with representative jim banks, head of the conservative republican committee in house of indiana and asked him about this and he also said that it is unacceptable that march ri taylor greene and paul gosar at that and no republican should ever attend a white nationalist event like that. while this seems to be the position of many in the republican party where does republican leader kevin mccarthy stand? he did not respond to requests for comment and we know the history here a couple weeks ago that the republican national committee censured two members of the republican party for the previous statements but cheney and kinzinger and mccarthy announced that he was going to support liz cheney primary challenger, something that republicans usually don't get involved in primaries so he's made clear where he stands on this issue. he's not said anything negatively about gosar or marjorie taylor greene but the house is back in session tonight and we'll ask him and se

marjorie taylor greene. you can go through a list of people. this kind of rhetoric is pretty wide spread and it's really dangerous. the membrane that separates civilization is thinner than most people think and because of the recent history of this country, i think a lot of folks had assumed that what we're seeing really wouldn't or couldn't happen in america and it can. my fear is that we're edging closer to political violence than we know. again, we saw it on january 6th but there is a lot of dry grass out there and people are tossing around matches and that's not a good thing to do and remember, you've got donald trump, right, former president, the most popular person the party encouraging unrest, if law enforcement proceeds against him. that's what he did in that speech the other day and he's holding up insurrectionists as martyrs. so there is, you know, i told a friend years ago at the beginning of the trump era, i said when there is no bottom, there is no bottom. i don't think there is right now. as long as this party is in the grips of t

taylor green and madison cawthorn and not adam kinzinger and liz cheney. it does not make sense. >> they care about the small-donor donation, and people like marjorie taylor greene are celebrated and adam kinzinger and liz cheney are censured. >> but it makes sense, because that is where the voters are. >> and people like marjorie taylor greene are commanding fundraisers, and the other members of the party are taking part of that. thank you, joe and molly. thank you for talking with us. >>> and now, joe rogan who has been accused of using n-word more than 200 time20 times, and responds.

>> he will have a high cell phone bill because he will call marjorie taylor green and people like thatpinion is. he will have no leadership ability because he is begging the people that just two years ago he said was crazy or were crazy, he is begging them for the ability to lead. i think it's going to be a miserable experience for him if he wins. i'm not convinced he will be speaker. if he is speaker, i think it will be one of the most miserable things he has been through. if he thinks there's a point he can stand up and take back power from folks like marjorie taylor greene, i don't think it will happen. the american people will react by throwing them out of power. >> you issued a tweet about josh ho holley, a senator from new jersey. i think you were responding to holley talking about ukraine, should be united states draw in guarantees about ukraine joining k nato, you said, i hate to be personal, but holley is one of the self-aggrandizing. i want to break this into parts if i can and take the second part first. you're saying when trump goes down. what do you mean by that? >> that's

but i just cannot get over marjorie taylor greene's delicious gaffe.ing it over and over again, because i'm sitting there thinking, you know, she really said that. she actually said that. >> and look, in defense of people who speak live on television or events like this, like you or i do, we make mistakes. >> all the time. >> we hopefully correct them, i correct myself all the time. she did not. so i guess gazpacho and gestapo are the same thing for her. >> which says a whole lot of things. >> have a good day, enjoy the day. >> thanks, you too, alex. >> thanks. >>> so a very good day to all of you from right here at msnbc world headquarters in new york. welcome, everyone, to "alex witt reports" we begin with breaking news, president biden speaking today with ukrainian president zelenskiy, the two reportedly discussing efforts to de-escalate as the u.s. warns russian incursion into ukraine could happen any day now. dod spokesperson john kirby explaini

. >>> as you know, marjorie taylor greene is a fan of nazi analogies and this one, like so many of hersjail, which is the d.c. gulog but we have nancy pelosi's gazpacho police spying on members of congress, spying on the legislative work we do, spying on our staff and spying on american citizens that want to come talk to their representatives. >> yes, she said gazpacho, a delicious cold soup. cnn politics reporter chris cillizza is here with more. >> sorry. >> chris, she owes an apology to gazpacho. >> it's delicious. it's chilled tomato soup. >> i love it. >> let's go through. let's go through some of the reaction to this because it's worth doing. alexandria ocasio-cortez, at least she leads by example and clearly banned all books from her house all years ago. it's solid. so let's keep going. now, this is my favorite one. mostly because i love berman. a police force that only handles cold cases. that's brilliant. judy chew from california. the problem isn't that she doesn't know the difference, it's because she doesn't know the difference between the holocaust and a public health campa

kevin mccarthy is afraid of the capacity of kooks like marjorie taylor greene and lauren boebert and cawthorn and gaetz to mobilize against him should the republicans retake the house and challenge his speakership. and so what you continue seeing is ridiculous cowardice. i mean, it looked like he was competing in the olympics yesterday, the way he was running so fast down the halls. we finally found something he's good at. running away from the truth. and running away from questions. >> oh, ana. >> don, if i could just add one postscript to ana. in terms of how slavish kevin mccarthy is. any gazpacho that marjorie taylor greene gives to kevin mccarthy, he's going to drink. >> do you know the reference? >> i've got to go. i'll get the reference later. i'll tell you what it means. >> go look up what -- even cha-cha's upset now. [ dog barking ] goodbye. >> thank you both. let's turn to the tension at ukraine's border. the white house has now approved a plan for u.s. troops to help evacuate americans if russia invades ukraine. joining me now, fareed zakaria. he is the host of "fareed zak

marjorie taylor greene and paul gosar, i don't know that. the old line from the butch cassidy where one character says, i'm morons, i have morons on my team. i think anybody who would sit down with white national iflts at their conference is certainly missing a few iq points. >> more broadly, the pro-putin sentiment you are seeing from some corners of your party. >> well, a lot of those people are changing their stripes as they're seeing the response of the world and the political response here in the u.s., but how anybody, how anybody in this country which loves freedom can side with vladimir putin which is an oppressor, a dictdictator kills people, he imprisons his political opponents. he's been an adversary of america at every chance he's had. it's unthinkable to me. it's almost treasonous. and it just makes me ill to see some of these people do that. but of course they do it because it's shock value and it will get the eyeballs and make a little more money for them and their network. it's disgusting. i'm hopeful you're seeing some of tho

today, when pressed reporters -- marjorie taylor greene took a much harder stance on president biden. >> i am staunchly against it, and i am staunchly against vladimir putin. his invasion of ukraine. the whole reason this is happening is because joe biden is a weak president. now america is a wee country, and our entire world is falling apart. and we are see war erupt. which did not happen under president trump because we had peace through strength. >> peace through strength? is that what she calls donald trump's deference to and support for authoritarian leaders while he was in office? this, week, trump secretary of state mike pompeo and one c -- 20 4:24 presidential candidate helped putin as talented and savvy and shrewd and capable. that makes him the only living former secretary of state who has used the lead up to the russian invasion of ukraine to ex told the russian leader. republicans in the extremist enabler seem far more concerned with the scoring of political points here than they do with the actions of a power grabbing dictator and the lives he is putting at risk in ukrain

you know, marjorie taylor greene and paul gosar, i don't know them, but i'm reminded of the line fromance kid" where he says, morons, i have morons on my team. >> marjorie taylor greene spoke immediately after a speaker who praised the virtues of young white men. she later said she didn't realize she was speaking to a group of white nationalists. mitt romney having a bit of a moment right now. >>> all right. joining us now to look at "axios" a.m., the co-founder who is always having a moment. mitt romney was right about russia about a decade ago, that was the other point to make there, his warning about putin. you tell us, what is the "axios: 1 big thing" for today? >> jonathan, it was a bit of a victory lap by senator romney. jonathan, the "axios: 1 big thing" is biden's back-to-work plan. this is a scoop from the "axios" politics team. over the next couple of days we will start to see a strong signal from the white house about federal workers going back to work. president biden wants to show the federal government leading by example, showing that america can get back to normal and t

meanwhile, palin 3.0, congresswoman marjorie taylor greene, last week you may have heard, she confusedhe word gestapo with gazpacho. [ laughter ] we all made fun of her. so last night, klan mom zoomed in with oan where host dan ball bent over so far he could taste his own last name to butter up his big-name guest. >> marjorie taylor greene, congresswoman, thanks for coming on the program. cnn ripped you, msnbc, jimmy who-cares kimmel calling you a klan mom for the trump so disgusting over there.they'r- but you've been having fun with this. it's a slip of the tongue. it happens. i screw stuff up. everybody does when you're on live tv rolling and rifting, right? >> jimmy: yeah, right, just rolling and rifting. [ laughter ] whatever rifting is, i'm not exactly sure. so then, to make some kind of point about how unfairly they're treated, dan, who comes off like seems to be, what would happen if kirk cameron went to the columbia school of broadcasting. [ laughter ] showed a series of clips of president biden getting things wrong. >> in the cvc parking lots and walgreen parking lots. ppp, th

she said, quote, as representative marjorie taylor greene and paul gosar speak at this event silenced by pro political leaders is deafening and enabling. all americans should renounce this garbage and reject the putin wing of the gop now. do you believe that? >> absolutely. liz cheney has been right for a long time. i also saw that rod mcdaniel came out with a statement as well, talking about how re repugnant these white nationalists are. look, there is no place in either party for right nationalism and racism. it's just wrong. speaking of evil, it's evil as well. marjorie taylor greene and paul gosar, i don't know them, but i'm reminded of that line in the "butch cassidy" movie who said, morons, i've got morons on my team. i have to think sitting in that conference they were missing a few iq points. >> just broadly, what pro-putin sentiments are you seeing from your party? >> a lot of them are changing their stripes as they're seeing the response in the world and the political response in the u.s. but how anybody -- how anybody in this country which loves freedom, can side with vladi

what about this, you also have congressman marjorie taylor greene who accused nancy pelosi of leadinge, gazpacho police, apparently mixing up gestapo with that cold soup. which is more embarrassing, nancy mace trying to curry favor with donald trump or this gazpacho gaffe? >> i mean, to confuse these two things and then try to absolve herself on twitter and just say, oh, it was just a slip of words, no, those are very clear distinctions she made. it's interesting because she represents this republican party wing that is very much doing the work of donald trump and has risen to fame because of their conspiracy theories and their loyalism. but also, they're not very smart. and then you have someone like nancy mace who feels as though she has to protect her seat, she has to do whatever she can to stay kind of in the good graces of not necessarily donald trump but his supporters. she has voters who support donald trump. she wants to do whatever she can to make sure she keeps her seat. it's interesting to see these kind of factions of the republican party and how they have come to prominen

two qanon supporters were elected to congress in 2020, marjorie taylor greene and lauren boebert, and qanon helped fuel the insurrection, which members of the tea party movement were also involved in. so while the tea party is officially gone as a thing, it never really died. and now that same faux grassroots strategy is being applied to these anti-vaccination truckers. mother jones reports on white nationalists an anti-vaccination moms planning a copy cat convoy with this call to action on tiktok. you don't have to be a trucker. we're looking for mom vans, too! and it is not coincidental that these movement always seem to spring to life not long before elections, when democratic presidents are in office, or democrats control parts of the government. as the new republic put it, the biden era has provided grist to right-wing media mills and to republicans, but it has lacked a true tea party-like group on to which every culture war bubble can be stitched for endless info containment. in a group of canadian truckers, fox news thinks it's found the next golden goose. now it just needs to

while discussing the capitol police in a recent interview, republican congresswoman marjorie taylor greenempare them to the nazi guess -- gestapo but apparently had -- >> we have the dcgulag but now we have nancy pelosi's gazpacho police, spying on members of congress and spying on the work we do and spying on american citizens that want to come talk to their representatives. >> as you heard, greene, instead called the capitol police gazpacho which is a chilled vegetable soup. gestapo was the nazi police. so many puns across the internet. she was referring to an incident, texas representative troy nehls talked about tuesday involving the capitol police allegedly entering his office and taking pictures of confidential legislative products back in november. the capitol police chief denied the claim and said the congressman had not been spied on saying instead a vigilant officer entered the representative's office as standard procedure after noticing the door had been left open after hours. you could not walk around washington yesterday without hearing that sound clip coming from people's pho

for almost everyone. >>> my head scratcher of a week, an instant classic from marjorie taylor greene.> so, instead, the delicious cold tomato soup which led to a number of mocking replies. do they adhear too saggria law? they have the and then chef how shay andress getting into the act, claims he started the gazpacho police to protect his beloved delicacy. immune to shame, of course, she's fund-raising off her mistake. perhaps a reference to khmer rouge chili? who knows. my high-five is anthony harris stepped up in a big way for a fan in need -- accompanies audrey to a father-daughter dance. she had become friends, and sending him encouraging message over his career, so he flew cross-country for the dance, even pays for her hair, makeup, new shoes and new dress for the 11-year-old to make the night extra special. anthony davis worthy of a high-five, and so much more. that wraps it up for me, everybody. i'll be back here tomorrow. "politics nation with reverend al sharpton" starts right now. >> good evening. welcome to "politics nation. tonight's lead -- the big game. right now the wor

i don't think many people are going to be voting this midterm cycle on marjorie taylor greene in the tester district -- in the testate -- in the texas district. host: rebecca? rebecca: i don't know that i think this is a particularly salient hit in these districts i don't think it is a laughable hit as a capitol hill resident where this insurrection took place. every republican, house, senate candidate up and down the ballot should have to answer on the record to the question, was the january 6 the tack on the capital legitimate political discourse? i think what you are seeing from the republican is what brendan mentioned. it is crazy, it is chaos, it is not in line with anything i am hearing from mainstream republican voters across the country. this is -- like i said before, it is a divided republican party at this point. you have the qanons, and the mainstream people who have been in congress and are working to get back into congress to put the congress back to work for the american people, and i think that is where these primaries collide, and it will be over real turning point fo

and i had congresswoman stacy plaskett on this show, and i asked her about marjorie taylor greene, andd talk about the oscars, this year, it's oscars a little less white because the academy, they still have a lot of work to do following years record breaking slate of nine acting nominations for people of color, only four black actors got that coveted nod this time. will smith, denzel washington, aunjanue ellis, and ariana debose. they have done a better job on diversity, i think, linn, i think the rya and the last dragon, the disney movie that came out is awesome. there's a lack of api representation in hollywood. the study found the api community accounted for less than 6% of speaking roles, and less than 4% of leads in hollywood, your thoughts. >> a lot of thoughts. the oscars, one, their viewership, their ratings has been going down for years. i think the lowest viewer ship they have seen is last year, and even though we saw historical firsts, the academy has been working hard to diversify their membership, more women, more people of color, but it remains overwhelmingly white and ma

this is twisting, metastasizing, you look at marjorie taylor greene and lauren boebert, there is 30 moreeople running for congress and a fair amount of them will be elected. some of these people, should democrats lose a majority, which on some days seems almost certain, these people will be committee chairman and wield actual political power. this situation is deteriorating and getting worse in america. it is not stable. it is not improving. it is deteriorating. and it is deteriorating at a constantly increasing descent angle. >> dire is how i would describe it. steve schmidt, charlie sykes, thank you, both, very much for coming back to "the sunday show." >>> coming up, we'll turn our attention to the democrats, and how they'll capitalize on a week of wins. we'll talk about it after the break. a week of wins. we'll talk about it after the we'll talk about it after the break. i don't know. i think they look good, man. mm, smooth. uh, they are a little tight. like, too tight? might just need to break 'em in a little bit. you don't want 'em too loose. for those who were born to ride there's

marjorie taylor greene raise $3 million in the third does first quarter of this year. some people like the approach, right and left. there are still a lot of people who do understand all of that. we have appropriation bills and have to pass the ndaa and raise the debt ceiling. we have the skill set to get it done but it is difficult because we try to do it and if i am against that, i will bring these people with me and you won't have the votes to bring it down. cut the deal, come back, and everybody says good. they're gone. we have to bring these people in. it is a 50-50 call. the most important thing is between now and february 18, to get all of the appropriators in a room and actually start negotiating. we cannot start negotiating from agreeing to everything i want. we have caucuses. we are not going to get what the caucuses are asking for. we do have to at least try. i would say in the next 30 days, the issue is now february 18. . we know what we have to do in the decision is whether we can do it. >> what are some of the priorities that would be a danger for another

maybe but would you want to go to congress and serve and have less seniority than marjorie taylor greenhe american political system we have today. i think i may get back out there but right now i just want to take care of my kids and my wife. >> trevor: let's talk about the book, "who are your people?." a lot of people that could be interpreted the wrong way. in america, it's uncomfortable when you say, where are you from? >> down south it's a colloquialism when you meet people the first time, like when i met my daughter's boyfriend for the first time, she's 16, you want to know where their family comes from and what kind of stock they come from. "who are your people?" is trying to understand where you come from. i wrote it because i was tired of my friends having to see purple or blue people on tv. i wanted them to see people who look like them. in this book they're able to see them and their people and have a sense of pride. i think when young black and brown kids read it they'll get a sense of pride and when white kids read it they'll get a sense of empathy. we live in a country with

i mean, even marjorie taylor greene is looking at this guy like, "dude, this isn't anything like the holocaust! there's no soup here at all!" it's actually wild when you think about it, how many different ways people disrespect holocaust survivors. because some people are like, "what happened to you didn't happen!" and some people are like, "what happened to you did happen, and it's happening again to me, right now, because i can't go skiing!" but the point is, these truckers and their supporters feel persecuted. and when this started, it was just a protest against vaccine requirements for truckers, but it's now grown into a wider movement against all coronavirus restrictions. they want vaccine mandates gone. they want mask mandates gone. they want to be free to sneeze into strangers' mouths again like the old days. but blocking traffic in downtown ottawa hasn't done the trick, so now they've decided to take things up a notch. >> a crucial trade link between canada and the united states was disrupted by protesters for a third day in a row. the ambassador bridge is the busiest interna

congresswoman and terminator sent back to make sure americans are too dumb to invent skynet, marjorie taylor greene. over our break, greene made the tv rounds complaining about the scope of the january 6th investigation. we were off last week, but she said something so dumb, that we almost did a special live show just to talk about it. ( cheers and applause ) this close. that close. i was at the airport. i was getting on the plane. here's what she said -- >> they're investigating our staff looking at their social media-- --everything is completely out of control. not only do we have the d.c. jail which is the d.c. gulag, but now we have nancy pelosi's gazpacho police spying on members of congress. >> stephen: yes. ( laughter ) the gazpacho police. ( laughter ) cup of goebbels soup. top rommel. leni beefenstock. all portrayed in the classic movie "schindler's bisque." we've got a great show for you tonight, my guests are jeffrey wright and alex borstein. but when we come back, the hot new trend in makin' babies. ( cheers and applause ) ( band playing ) your doctor gives you a prescription. “let's ge

at another white nationalist conference known as at af pac, marjorie taylor greene took the stage fridayust before this moment here. >> i look at russia who -- can we give a round of applause to russia. >> putin. putin. putin. >> absolutely, absolutely. >> i mean what's behind the love affair between the republican party and putin? >> well, i stand with mitt romney. i think he represents the republican party that my parents were a part of and the republican party that ought to be in existence today. i think it's a shame that the leaders of the republican party have allowed themselves to become adopted by this white nationalist movement as well as those people who find solace with the soviet union. we saw it in the presidency of donald trump. he tried to destabilizes all the parts of nato alliance. he sought to disrespect the ukrainian people themselves by doing all kinds of machinations regarding their leadership, and now he's saying if he were in office, we wouldn't have this invasion. he's probably right about that, because he was doing all the work for putin. he had no need to carry o

with the exception of marjorie taylor greene, most of them are not stupid.- >> might call the gaspacho police on you for that, fred. >> their behavior is intentional and they are trying to incite violence and you know, we look at the last election, called it the most important election of our lifetime because we needed to defeat one person. this is the most important election of our lifetime coming up because we have to defeat this philosophy. we have to defeat those who think violence with guns is the way democracy is supposed to function. this democracy worked for hundreds of years without ads like this and after the '22 election, we need to elect people who are going to bring us back to a place where normalcy, decency, civility, and examples that our children should be proud of become the norm again. they need to be defeated. >> and fred, do you feel at all let down by the current administration and what it has done on gun control? what do you think? obviously more needs to be done. what are your thoughts? >> listen, more does need to be done. president b

, which i don't think they should be in the business of, maybe they should have gone after marjory taylor greene or paul gosar, instead of going after two people who have behaved honorably and upheld their oaths of office. by becoming willing hostages, the rnc, they have turned the party over to donald trump. he's ralised twice as much mone as they have and it's stunning to me the party would surrender so easily to donald trump. they're hurting themselves. i am astounded they think this is a good idea going after cheney and kinzinger while letting the problem members off the hook. >> are they not smart enough to know they're taking money from them? >> they're diverting money from the party. and he's freezing the field with the presidency. the other candidates can't jump in until they feel he makes a decision. >> how cowardly. you would think ambition would cause some to stiffen their spine a little bit. but charlie is exactly right. here is a guy raking in all this cash. the rnc is paying his legal fees. he is siphoning off money from the rnc. the supposed billionaire who has a boat load of cras

people, the people who have actually brought discredit upon the house, you know, people like marjorie taylor greene and paul gosar i don't see any censure resolutions for them. by the way a lot of county committees over the years don would censure members. we thought it was goofy. i was censured once by a committee for marriage equality. they made fools of themselves and they realized after. this rnc is carrying on like some of the extreme elements we've seen in local county committees. there are no words to describe it. >> you said good on them for calling them out and you guys do it as well on your platform. good on you guys as well. thank you so much. i appreciate it. >>> pence defying trump his top aides talking to the committee investigating january 6. what does all this say about what could be in the trove of documents the committee has? stay with us. and it's temperature balancing so you both sleep just right. and now, save 50% on the sleep number 360 limited edition smart bed. plus, 0% interest for 48 months on all smart beds. ends monday hello, how can i? sore throat pain? ♪honey lemon♪ tr

they don't even have the spine to confront marjorie taylor greene anymore.eeps lying of public health officials, even accusing them of murder. >> i think that people really have blood on their hands that have stopped the prescriptions of ivermectin, refused people who have had sick family members in the hospital of not being able to take ivermectin or any other kind of life saving treatment or therapy because it's dr. fauci and anyone at the cdc or anyone involved that stopped life saving treatments and therapies and people died. well, i think they're guilty of murder. >> what is left of ronald reagan's party? senator ted cruz thinks it's fun to tweet out tips for riding out another winter storm in texas, and jokes about inflation saying plane tickets to cancun are up 32%. ted cruz could invoke winston churchill, keep calm and carry on, people might ask first class or coach. rudy giuliani taped "the mask singer," the season is themed, the good, the bad and the cuddly, maybe do a rendition of shaggy's hit "it wasn't me," did you try to overturn the election,

. >>> first in the midst of this crisis, none other than marjorie taylor greene, how the republican partys defending her actions as it rallies around trump at cpac. we'll be right back. we'll be right back. (vo) verizon is going ultra! with 5g ultra wideband in many more cities. mindy! with up to 10x faster speeds, she can download a movie in minutes or a song in seconds. (mindy) yep! (vo) verizon is going ultra so you can do more. >>> welcome back, everybody. crowds at the america first political action conference this week roared in support of russia, chanting and supporting putin's name as nick fuentes suggested it wasn't a bad thing to compare putin to adolf hitler. former president trump called putin, quote, smart, while blasting nato nations as well as president biden's latest sanctions. nbc vaughn hillyard has more on this. >> yasmin, former president trump is still very much the leader of this republican party here. and when you're talking about not only the united states but a united nato front confronting a russian military that is invading ukraine, of course attention has to be

kevin mccarthy the top republican in the house, the rnc, they've been given over to the trump marjorie taylor greene wing of the republican party. mcconnell for his part would like everybody on the republican side to just shut up the next ten months and let the midterm elections be a referendum on joe biden, his approval ratings. they think his opportunities with the lingering covid situation, with questions about rising crime, they just want this to be an up or down question on are you happy with things as they stand right now. when he is asked questions, asked the other day what is the agenda republicans want to implement if returned to power he wouldn't answer the question. he doesn't want to introduce any variables. he doesn't want to provide a viable alternative. he just wants to make it a referendum on biden and this donald trump injecting himself into the primary races mitch mcconnell is overseeing is complicating his life and these efforts by the rnc and kevin mccarthy are further complicating his life because they are making it more of a choice between a sane, rational joe biden led democra

if you're going to censure somebody at the rnc, they could have gone after maybe marjorie taylor greeneuld have done that. by the way, i saw kyrsten sinema get cents urd. i think this is foolish. they are censuring people, who what i would call main stream people, kinzinger or liz cheney because they're responding in anger. so many people who are involved in politics in washington simply play to a primary base. a general election for most is a formality. the districts are so lopsided. >> the only reason i want to step in here. we just got an update from the story we heard from manu raju. the congressman from kentucky has apologized to joyce beatty after he told her to kiss his ass, his language. i wouldn't say this is great news but least he realized he crossed a line. at least he realized that telling a fellow member of congress to kiss his ass is not acceptable. but a standard low. >> standard is pretty low. we should point out, in congress, there has been violence toward members of congress in the past in history. you had a member of congress cane another member. congress -- >> durin

that member has brought discredit or shame or embarrassment upon the house or the party, say marjorie taylor greenar. but he's going after someone what is asking for accountability and that is what is so troubling about this. and when there are people that deserve the type of treatment that mccarthy dished out on klainy but it should be dished out on the the more radical extreme members. >> and does this mean anything in wyoming? anybody going to vote because now mccarthy is on board? >> well, you know, somebody in politics told me that sometimes it is best to be for what is going to happen and i suspect what kevin mccarthy is concluded is that cheney is going to lose and that like charlie said, to curry favor around in the next congress and voting on who the next speaker is, this is a good thing to do. so i think mccarthy has made clear that he's not going to tolerate any dissent on this matter inside of the conference and this was a way for him to signal that once again to the people that he's going to need most, if he wanted to become speaker after the likely outcome of republicans winning the

legitimately won the 20220 election and worried about grifters in the republican party and delittled marjorie taylor greeneoy voted to certify trump the defeat and other congressmen facing a primary tuesday. van taylor from north texas. tony gonzalez from the 23rd district the only two republicans from the texas delegation who vote and an independent commission to investigate the january 6th riot. playing close attention. any sign of the blowback for any of that for them. meanwhile all candidates for attorney general in texas trying to showcase maga credentials including george p. bush. of course, son of the man trump famously attacked as low energy jeb back during the 2016 primaries. the george p. bush campaign handing out beer cosis praising him saying this is the only bush that likes me. the bush that got it right. i like him. biggest test of trump's influence comes much later in the primary season most notably in wyoming where liz cheney is facing for her political life and trying to oust georgia politician whose did not go along with his attempt to overturn the election including the sitting governor
