>> first, marjorie taylor greene is insane. and this whole impeachment effort is the marjorie taylor greene and donald trump show. it's been marjorie taylor greene who has filed both impeachment documents on president biden and of course on secretary mayorkas. this is all because of her. she's pushing this, and she's taking donald trump's words. the truth that people forget is migration has been going up when the donald trump presidency started. in the last year of the trump presidency, migration increased threefold. and that's because all the crises happening in venezuela, ecuador, across the southern hemisphere. we have a challenge at the border. democrats do actually want to solve the issue. the president has proposed solutions. but donald trump is now saying he doesn't want a bill. he doesn't want -- >> he wants to run on it. >> he wants to create chaos and dysfunction. we're trying to push back. we need a solution. he wants none. >> you said marjorie taylor greene is behind the impeachments of president biden and alejandro

marjorie taylor greene, so you can go back to marjorie taylor greene, essentially being the leader of of these sham impeachment efforts. here's the reality, the real issues along the border, the president recognizes this and democrats understand this. we want to send more resources to border patrol agents that need it. we want technology along the border. we want to help the nonprofits that are working along the border but you know who rejects every single one of those republicans -- proposals? the republicans. the president has proposed millions of dollars to help the borders, that's been rejected by the republicans because we actually don't want solutions on the border. they want to turn into a political talking point for donald trump and we are happy to have a debate on the border. we want to have that debate. we propose funding but they are not interested in any of this. this impeachment idea is a marjorie taylor greene creation, and everything she's doing at this point is completely not, so we've got to take it for what it is and try to get the business done for the american peop

this is a ridiculous effort at the direction of donald trump and marjorie taylor greene.sident biden has been working hard to negotiate a bipartisan agreement in the senate to try to fix our broken imsystem and t should be done in a comprehensive, bipartisan manner. when the details of any agreement reached in the senate are released in legislative form such that house democrats can evaluate it, then we will have a perspective to share at a family conversation with each other. however, one thing that is clear is that president biden is determined to work in a bipartisan way to solve the challenges at the border and the extreme mega republicans clearly are not. >> one more question. quick question. i am looking forward to seeing the text of a proposal that is being hammered out to see where i stand personally. we are here in an impeachment situation and we are focused on the border. but that is not the right focus. i have been going to latin america over the last 12 months refugees, asylum-seekers, columbia has about 3 million refugees. costa rica is bursting at the seams.

marjorie taylor greene in the hearing room shouted out that he should be arrested here and now. you up-to-date on the uproar in just a moment. the administration just announced what they think is a huge victory for gig workers. a new rule will make it harder for people to classify as independent workers, forcing them to become regular employees. first of all under this new rule, who is now considered a worker? >> anyone who is economically dependent on a company. basically 100% of gig economy workers could theoretically be classified as that and the administration had a clear ideological ax to grind. i don't think the gig economy pays great, companies that as is our hemorrhaging tens of billions of dollars, can't afford gig employees. stuart: would this take away my ability to be a gig worker? if i want to work 30 hours a week as an uber driver does this stop me doing that? >> perfectly and acted. it is a small percentage of income in a perfect world it wouldn't, but can we trust the administration to enforce the policy? you can't judge a policy by stated goal, what is the maxim

congresswoman marjorie taylor greene has already threatened to bring a motion to vacate the chair, tof the gavel if he decides to bring the senate crafted bill to the house floor. so basically, it is messy. joining me now, congressman -- of vermont member of the house budget committee. congresswoman, as always, thank you very much for coming to the show. >> happy to chat with you. >> great. so come march 1st, will congress be forced to kick the can down the road yet again? >> i fear that that is what will happen. because you've got a situation right now where are the members of the house freedom caucus do not seem to understand that what they have right now is what i am calling a mina, a little minnow, a majority in name only. they are hanging on to a majority by a thread, but they are still under this delusion that somehow they get to control the narrative, they get to control the order of how things go. they don't have the votes, and so in order for us to pass the crt of the, day who had to come through in a big way? the democrats once again, and we have seen this pattern all year.

knew that something was up because someone from the area would have known the two counties marjorie taylor greene were swatted over christmas and that was very prominent in the news. as a proactive measure the house sergeant at arms has encourage them to reach out to local police departments and have a conversation with them giving an emergency contact number and if you get anyout to us and make sure to validate so if it is indeed a swatting incident like it was with burlison they won't respond with guns blazing. they had a hunch it was swatting because of the county discrepancy. at the same time, it's a tough area, a tough line because do you not send the cops but what if it's a real emergency? toe. but we sought work out as well as it could with burlison it was a tempered law enforcement response but it is sucking up valuable law enforcement resources that should not have to be diverted to that. host: what is in place to protect members if anything? guest: they have a $10,000 they make available to house lawmakers and they can use it to bolster home security there is one $150 a month they can u

who knows what marjorie taylor greene did. at the end of the day, does it change the vote? probably not. i think julie tsirkin said at the beginning, this probably ensures more so that house republicans hold hunter biden in contempt. >> one thing we heard, julie tsirkin who's with us, from democratic representative jared moskowitz was although for a contempt of congress here, if we're going to hold everybody accountable, if both parties are held to this same standard when it comes to responding to congressional subpoenas, does he have a point there? i mean, he listed jim jordan, mo brooks, kevin mccarthy who have all been requested for either documents or their presence and testimony at some point the, and who have just simply ignored or haven't responded. >> reporter: exactly. nancy mace sort of walked right into that. she's the one who actually brought up the fact that the january 6th select committee wanted to enforce their subpoenas against some of those folks that you've mentioned, including current members of congress who are chairing some of these hearings right now.

this is a political stunt and a hit job ordered by two people, donald trump and marjorie taylor greenethe republicans have clearly turned their ever shrinking majority over to the extremists. and this sham impeachment of secretary mayorkas is just another sad example. from the very beginning of this congress, house democrats have made clear we will work with democrats whenever and wherever possible to solve problems for the american people. we are ready, willing and able to address the challenges that exist at the border. but the extreme maga republicans have been directed by donald trump not to work together to address the challenges at the border and instead, to distract the american people, and that's why they are wasting time. and the treasure of the american people this week with this fraudulent impeachment. we are going to push back aggressively against it and we are going to continue to expose this do-nothing republican congress. and my honor to yield to the top democrat and ranking member on the border security subcommittee, lou correa. mr. correa: good afternoon. got to take a

what did you think of marjorie taylor greene and the other congressman who spoke? good job. she is a little firecracker. she livened everything up. >> did the room need to be livened up? >> yes, it was quiet. >> are caucuses supposed to be lively? the business part of its business, but when she was done it got lively. >> were you surprised, people showed up? >> yes, i was. good to see a good crowd. >> how many of these have you been to over the years? >> five or six. >> what memory will you take from this one? >> it was really hot from the gymnasium. >> and cold outside. thanks for the time. i think we have one more to join us. tell me your name. >> gail rogers. >> what did you think about tonight? >> it was interesting to see the points of view everybody had and how everybody in the state of iowa is working together for one cause and one purpose and showing our faith to the world that we want to make a difference in this political situation we are in. >> do you think we are making a difference? and how would you describe the situation we are in? >> yes, i think we

this is a marjorie taylor greene effort. senator mayorkas has a really tough job. we have real challenges at the border which we need to solve. the resources have been proposed to be sent there by the president but the republican house doesn't have any interest in doing that. they want chaos and they want to make this an election issue. >> let's talk about the real challenges you just mentioned. it is a fact that a record number of migrants crossed the u.s. borders in december. nearly a quarter of a million illegal crossings at the southern border alone. you may feel the republicans taking it on the wrong person with with this effort but do you acknowledge that this is a situation that has not, or that has alluded a solution and is there blame to go on this administration? >> i mean, first, it's really important to note that the border migrant increase started to happen during donald trump's administration. the last eight months of donald trump's presidency, border crossings increased every time. so there is a crisis the president is trying to address and we're doi

we go to iowa were ron desantis is campaigning, and marjorie taylor greene was stumping for former president trump. in new hampshire, chris christie meeting with voters, and nikki haley making her way around the granite state. but first -- >> politico congressional arrow chief is with us to talk about campaign 2024. your headline in a recent piece is gop's most trump skeptical bloc starts falling in line. what did you report? >> three years ago it would be hard to imagine senate republicans would line up behind donald trump after january 6. this was a group of people ready to move on to a new candidate, but what has happened over the past year is he has no real challenger, and president has been putting in a ton of work behind the scenes to get support from republican senators. we are seeing tom cotton, somebody who might have white house ambitions in the future got behind donald trump. we have seen people including the north dakota senators, who previously endorsed the governor have endorsed commerce president trump as well. we are seeing a consolidation before anyone has gone to the polls,

congresswoman marjorie taylor greene from georgia. marjorie? >> hi everybody.to represent a wonderful district. and i have to tell you, it feels really good to me too be here with you all. because you are just like the folks i represent at home. and you feel like friends and family so this is easy for me i am here to ask you to vote for my favorite president our former president of the united states, donald j trump. [cheering] i do not have to attack the other candidates. i do not have too. because of president trump has a four year record that we all know, we know president trump. we trust president trump. president trump gave america the best for years we have had in probably the united states history. i have to tell you let's talk about the economy we had under president trump. i was only a few years ago but under president trump americans can afford food. americans could afford rent. americans could afford gas. and you know what? we also had a low interest rates, remember that? it has driven interest rates it's driven to a point where inflation is starting

>> and they are probably real as i don't understand the thinking of marjorie taylor greene, but that is real right now and it is incredibly strong for this reason. if you look at the size of the majority, basically you're looking at a 2% margin that will get you into trouble. i mean think about your business environment or think about your family. i mean i love my brothers and sisters, but i don't agree with them 98% of the time. yet that's the kind of margin that the speaker has to look at maintaining right now. because if not, he's again with a no vote and he's got to go with the democrats, creating their own complexity. so it is just a function of a tight operating margin and a few other things he's dealing with that will cause real problems. >> what do you say to those who say the gop right now in its current state is unleadable in the

have tried to avoid a kick down the road the efforts by some of the far right, include ing marjorie taylor greene, to impeach mayorkas. they didn't feel it had the support of the caucus, but they sent the latest effort by marjorie taylor greene to the homeland security committee and since then, the leader of that committee has released a report where they said they have committed a dereliction of duty, that he's directly responsible for the surge in migrant crossings at the southern border. and he has committed high crimes and misdemeanors and deserves an impeachment proceeding. that's going to begin in urnest this wednesday, but it's really interest ing that this is happening in the state as efforts to move forward with the president's impeachment efforts, it will happen on the same day they are going to hold his son in contempt of congress. >> a full splat to start the year. thank you so much. >> thank you for having me. >>> secretary of state antony blinken arrives in saudi arabia in just a few hours to meet with the crown prince after a stop in the uae. it's his fourth visit since the aattack

[cheers] and i never get tired of winning, and i think we need some more. america is losing now. none of us like it. it has been a shocking experience the past few years, ever since the biden administration took over in washington. i want to go back in time and tell you about me. and tell you why i support president trump. i never thought i would get into politics. i never had political aspirations. i spent most my adult life running a construction company and ra

we will take you to iowa where florida governor ron desantis was campaigning and marjorie taylor greeneas stumping for former president trump. we will see chris christie meeting with voters and nikki haley making her latest rounds through the granite state, but first, a conversation with a politico reporter about the recent spate of endorsements for president trump. campaign 2024. your headline in a recent piece is >> your headline is "gop's most trump-skeptical bloc falls in line." >> three years ago, it would have been hard to imagine that senate republicans would start lining up behind president trump after january 6, but what happened over the past year is he has had no real challengers, and president trump has been putting in a ton of work behind the scenes to try to get support from republican senators. we are seeing someone who might have white house ambitions in the future just got behind donald trump. we have seen some people, including the north dakota senators, who previously endorsed the governor, endorsed former president trump as well, so we are seeing a consolidation befo

you don't like congresswoman marjorie taylor greene and you don't see eye to eye, but you're on camera very critical of donald trump. it caused trump's campaign manager to claim you wouldn't be electable. >> that was by my campaign opponent who sliced it up and edited. it's a highly edited video provided by a campaign operative from my opponent. >> you didn't say the things you're on camera saying? you're on camera. >> you take sentences and take part of the sentence out and you get a different conclusion from that sentence or a different inf infrnchs from that sentence. >> i want everyone watching to see what it was you said, because it is edited. there are moments where it says congressman bob good says that. let me play a moment so everyone can see what's on camera. >> i decided to endorse desantis in may. i can't sit by and watch and then regret that we nominated trump. >> you are on camera saying those things, congressman. >> well, but that's part of a larger sentence and a larger conversation that's been edited out. it takes out the part where i praise president trump and i said

i recognized marjorie taylor greene. sk hubbard questions because moskowitz said he was there to answer questions. as soon as he realized marjorie taylor greene was going to ask him a question, they ran out of there. they knocked over people on the way out the door. so i think the american people got to see two things. number one, he was not there to answer questions. and, number two, this is the second time that hunter biden has displayed in real time the arrogance and entitlement that he has had his entire life. why he thinks he can get millions and millions of dollars from our enemies around the world and then not pay taxes on it and then lie about it. look, this is an investigation of joe biden. it's about what his family did to receive the millions of dollars from our enemies around the world. and we just have as i remember questions that we need to ask hunter biden in his deposition. >> laura: congressman, there was a moment where they think they have you against the wall here. it was kind of a clever stunt i have t

i want you to listen to what your fellow conservative marjorie taylor greene told me about this yesterday. have you lost confidence in him? >> i haven't seen anything come out of those negotiations that give me confidence. that's the problem. people are saying that at home, and they do not want to see our republican speaker of the house getting rolled in these meetings behind closed doors. that's not what we want to see out of our speaker. otherwise, what's the difference in, you know -- nancy pelosi having the gavel and us having the majority. >> she is concerned that he is essentially getting rolled by democrats. are you concerned that speaker johnson, this is not the first deal he cut with democrats, lease getting rolled by democrats? >> well, we -- that's up to us to bolster him up and say we can't do that. with me, the top priority is to die on a hill for is to shut the border down my position, no more illegals crossing the border. put that as i prerequisite to any funding. why fund a government that's working against the people of this country? and we've got a national security thre

i think he will pick marjorie taylor green. here is why, in addition to the loyalty that she will offer blindly, there is another thing trump values, clicks. who gets the highest ratings? he came onto the scene as a reality tv guy. people on my side do not like marjorie taylor green it every time she pokes her head up on social media the clicks go through the roof. >> i think everybody we name from tim scott to marjorie green , do not hold a candle and i want to push back on harry for a minute to harris. over the past three years, one of the things we have seen is the vice president come into her own. right now she is building comfort amongst democrats as somebody that can step up and do the job and she has on-the- job training. >> we have to leave it there for now, we have more on the election results from new hampshire and trump responding to questions about his mental fitness after recent gaffes on ththe trail. that is s ahead. >>> well, as nikki haley questions donald trump's mental fitness, the former president said that h

he sat silently for 20 minutes when chairman james comer called on republican marjorie taylor greene, who has attacked hunter biden in deeply personal terms. biden, walking out. >> thank you, mr. chairman. uh, excuse me, hunter. >> apparently you're afraid of my words. uh, here go. >> oh. >> moments later, biden's lawyer with this parting shot, the republic chairs today, then are commandeering in precedented resolution to hold someone in contempt who has offered to publicly answer all their proper questions. >> the question there is, what are they afraid of now? >> that house committee has just voted along party lines to move ahead with their effort to try and hold hunter biden in contempt of congress for refusing their subpoena to testify privately, even though he has repeatedly offered to answer their questions just only in public. all of this also coming as hunter biden is set to be arraigned on charges of tax evasion. mary bruce abc news, capitol hill mary, thank you. >> work to fill an illegal tunnel in a new york synagogue is underway. a cement truck was seen at the site yesterd

motion -- make the motion to oust from your role as house speaker, that is congresswoman marjorie taylor greeneyou worried about threats to your job like that? >> now, i have a job to do. we all have to do our jobs. marjorie taylor greene is very upset about the lack of oversight over the funding and the lack of articulation of a plan, as am i. all of us, many of us -- >> she doesn't care about a plan, she doesn't want any ukraine funding, period. no matter what the white house says the plan is. >> i understand that. i have talked with her about it, personally, at great length. she has made her position very clear. we have to do our job, we have to continue to ensure the recovery of all these bases, and we will see how all this shakes out. i am not worried about that. i got a job to do, here, and we have to make sure that we get the answers that we demanded. i don't think these are unreasonable answers and questions, by the way, these are very reasonable things we have asked the white house for, and they haven't produced it. >> well, jake sullivan was at that meeting today, and -- was going thr

of course, marjorie taylor greene is loyal to trump.eal ultimately lives or dies in the house. >> let's bring in the ranking member of the house intelligence committee, democratic congressman jim himes of connecticut. you were part of these meetings. take us inside and help us understand. you have republicans like lindsey graham and senator langford over on the senate side, not exactly liberals, saying to the house this is the best deal we're going to get. it's the best deal that's come along in a long time. frankly, it's a little more friendly to the conservative side of the argument. take the deal, house republicans. why aren't they taking the deal? >> it was a remarkable hour and a half in the cabinet room with the president and about 20 members of the congress and senate. for an hour and a half everybody couldn't have agreed more. we were violently agreeing with each other on the urgency of funding ukraine. i heard the president at least two or three times saying i will do a big border deal. i used to negotiate in the private sector

let's listen to congresswoman marjorie taylor greene.ou're going to hear from congressman byron donalds too. watch this. >> excuse me, hunter, apparently you're afraid of my words. >> whoa! [laughter] oh -- >> i'd like to reclaim my time, mr. chairman. >> [inaudible] [laughter] [inaudible conversations] finish. >> wow, that's too bad. [laughter] >> [inaudible] >> i think it's clear and obvious for everyone watching this hearing today that hunter biden is terrified of strong, conservative republican women, because he can't even face my words as i was about to speak to him. what a coward. we will hold hunter biden in contempt. and if the democrats are not the hypocrites that they constantly display that they are, then they will vote for contempt of congress because they voted for it on every other subpoena if -- >> this isn't about hunter biden's white privilege p it's about hunter biden's democrat privilege. because dona if meth elizabeth yeah, what do you think, congressman? house judiciary did approve the resolution to hold hunter biden

i talked to marjorie taylor greene tonight that was at that closing rally for donald trump., what would a major win here in new hampshire say? she said, it would be a clear message that not only do republican voters around the country want donald trump's policies, but they want donald trump to be the one to implement those policies. >> of course, marjorie taylor greene what say that. she has given her loyalty pledge to donald trump. thus far, it has worked for her. elie, let's talk about desantis. and we week ago, when trump won in iowa, we said, well, if it was only a two-person race, maybe things would be wildly different. desantis and haley are splitting the other vote. we vote now? did leading the race help haley? >> i mean, it wasn't really splitting the vote here. desantis wasn't doing well here. even talking to haley folks and allies in the aftermath, the immediate aftermath of him dropping out, they would, like well, we're only talking five to 6% at best here in new hampshire for round desantis? and you say that splits 2 to 1 according to pointed. fine, trump benefit

you have folks like marjorie taylor greene showing revenge porn and crazy things.'s allow the legal process to play out. let's get to the business we have in front of the country, like funding the government, like foreign aid to places like ukraine. republicans are not interested in that. they are interested in spectacle. they are interested in hurting the american people. they have all -- they care about this revenge fantasy. they want to get donald trump elected and do everything they can to help donald trump. >> you also sit on the homeland security committee, starting impeachment hearings again secretary mayorkas. have republicans made the case for impeaching him? >> this is also completely insanity. we are having that hearing all day today. the truth is, republicans want to impeach everyone. this is an effort, again that's been led by marjorie taylor greene, who is the most extreme maga member, of course, on their side. the truth is, there's no reason to impeach the secretary. we all know there are real challenges along the border and around immigration. there

marjorie taylor greene, matt gaetz, jim jordan, a cast of other members of congress who have backed donaldoing to be appearing here momentarily at fort dodge at a brewery. this is the final campaign event before the caucuses begin. donald trump's team feel like they have identified a pool of supporters, folks who not only caucused for him in 2016, but voted for him in the general election in 2020, and over the course of the last three years they have garnered even more contact information and it has been about activating those folks and getting them to turn out despite the cold. the question is, will they show up? listen to my conversation with betsy showers yesterday amid that below 40 windchill. >> how much support is there between trump versus nikki haley and ron desantis. >> everybody is voting for trump, everybody. >> do you know anybody voting for desantis? >> no. >> nikki haley? >> no. you don't even see one sign for any of them. i might see a few desantis signs, but nikki haley, please. >> reporter: chris, the trump campaign is not only relying on first-time caucus-goers like betsy

they were both led by marjorie taylor greene. also her legislation that was moving this impeachment against secretary mayorkas forward. again, it's completely political. let's remember that we've actually proposed border solutions. the president has proposed a package months ago, actually, of support for the border. four agents. for technology. to helping the asylum process, actually be done in a way that's humane. but house republicans are not interested in any sort of solution. and we've heard, as you know, recently, donald trump has come out and said, i don't even want a border deal. i don't want more support for what's happening at the border. the border is a huge challenge. we have a huge crisis happening in other parts of the world, in south america, central america. we look at places like venezuela, we have migrants coming to this country. many of them are seeking support. they are fleeing horrific conditions in their own country. and we've got a treat the border and immigration in the way that is the main, and that is not

the question is are there more dan crenshaws or marjorie taylor greenes. that's a question we don't know the answer to just yet. >>> let's talk about hunter biden and his concession that he's making. he's going to testify behind closed doors to congress for two separate committees. joining us now, nbc senior investigative producer, sarah fitzpatrick. i'm having you join the conversation, nobody knows the story better than you. having a news conference outside of congress, he would appear publicly, going inside to capitol hill for a surprise visit to a hearing to demonstrate that he was happy to appear publicly. why now is he saying yes to appearing privately? >> i think ultimately, you know, the timing is no accident here on both sides. there was a contempt, you know, he had demonstrated multiple times through letters, appearances, a willingness to testify, and ultimately the committee put on the calendar the possibility of a contempt of congress, you know, of that happening, becoming a reality. and so i think what we saw here is it went for the first time
