>>virginia senator mark warner says president trump cannot unilaterally take funding away from schools, you're president you're not dictator, you cannot arbitrarily say that money that's been appropriated for education. you can't hold back back. warner has introduced a bill which prevents the administration from reducing or redirecting education funding from schools that decide they cannot safely reopen these are health care decisions about the safety of our kids should be decided on a local basis. warner worries the president's actions would have a disastrous effect on schools in poorer communities, those schools where there may be even higher incidence of covid this threat of cutting off funding. more immoral west virginia republican senator shelley moore capito supports distance learning as reopening schools would be expensive for cash-strapped school districts they're going to have to hire extra staff are seen as a shun there probably might need extra room they're in need more ppe. >>they're going to probably neil different shielding in a in the cafeteria capital says the proposed

i think this would have been -- when i talk to people like senator mark warner or other more nationaly focused lawmakers in congress on the democratic side including a democrat from virginia, when i talked to lawmakers like that they back the united states in terms of where the u.s. china policy is headed. expectpolitical mindset, the biden and trump campaigns to battle it out in terms of who would be more tough on china. both sides are saying they would take the more aggressive national security approach against china, neither side is conceding that point. francine: why is it so difficult to find unity on stimulus? have a triangulation occurring on capitol hill. you have president trump backing the payroll tax cut, but democrats say that won't help people who need immediate assistance who have been laid off work. president trump saying the middle class and people who still have jobs could use that extra cash to help stimulate the economy. leader mcconnell saying he has to pay attention to the liability protections to make sure that companies are not on the hook when they do get folks

i think that is where the mark warners of the world, the democrat from virginia, previously working inelecommunications, i think that is where you see a lot of the conversation move in the short and long-term. stimulus, isncy on it properly understood in washington, the timeline of 23, 27, july 31, and the first few days of august when the rent is due? jonathan: i was -- kevin: i was speaking to some staffers yesterday, with democrats, and they feel they have some momentum on their side in terms of garnering the support of the american people to get the stimulus across the finish line, especially as it relates to unemployment benefits. when i talk to republicans, there's really two camps. even the heritage foundation camp is somewhat lenient about providing economic stimulus and relief to people right now who desperately need it. but they also want to make sure that for individuals who are able to go back to work, he you are able to go back to work to keep their jobs, that they be able to have incentive to do so and that companies not be left on the hook should they be wanting to provi

martha: joining me now is the vice chair of the senate intelligence committee, democratic senator mark warner from virginia, thank you very much for being here today. this was interesting in their essays, i think, such an important issue for americans across the country. and in this particular discussion, they are talking about the freedom of speech. freedom of expression. so where do you come down on whether or not these doctors who were discussing something that they believed fervently in ought to be able to hurt and people can share is, people can shoot it down, other people can say it's fake, whatever they wanted to take it down and sense of the people who put it up, are you on board with that? >> martha, first of all, let me step back. my background was in this field, i spent 20 years as an entrepreneur in the technology field and telcom and i think we need to acknowledge these four companies have as much power as probably any company in american history. you would argue these companies have more power than at the beginning of the 20th century and i think these companies have an added re

democrat senator from virginia mark warner who sits on the senate budget and finance committee joinsw. he is well-positioned to talk about all of these issues. let's talk payroll tax reduction. president obama had one as did president bush before him, temporary ones to deal with their own economic crises. why not have one now? >> david, i agree with my friend, john. it is one tool in their toolkit. i think the reason why you have not seen my republican colleagues endorse it for the most part -- and the democrats being pretty much opposed to it, is really most of the benefit of flows to the employer. it does nothing for people who are unemployed. it is not proven based on history with obama and bush to be as effective a stimulant and potentially goes much more to higher income we are looking at 40% of the folks who make less than $40,000 per year losing their job that it is going to bring people back or that it is going to have that kind of stimulus that we are dealing with a really hard ship times here. i think we all have to maybe check our ideological tools and release say, what ca

that includes senator joe, senator, king center jones, mark warner, along with republican senators, adozen of them to see if we can address this. in the house there are some 30 democrats, and 30 republicans who have all written house leadership and who have said this approach of the house act needs to be included in the heels act if you will. the approach is quite simple. we create a process, bipartisan process to issue each one of these trust funds individually. a committee to see how they can solve it on a bipartisan basis. if we can reach a bipartisan conclusion that can come on the floor. we have to address the solvency of our trust funds. they are vital to our seniors and nation. we also have to deal with the amount of debt that we are adding up as we appropriate leaves the rescue the american people from the terrible covid crisis. >> i'm the last one standing here. the >> it was difficult for republicans to negotiate legislation. it was very difficult to negotiate. when you begin negotiations with the democrats, you are talking about an income tax that's not in the legislation.

senator mark warner, the top democrat on the intel committee, says republicans forced its removal asondition to pass a larger piece of legislation and the national defense authorization act. that's the must-pass bill that authorizes defense spending, you know, the one trump wants to hold up for another reason, namely to save the names of confederate generals on military bases. yes, he wants to hold up funding to save them. the election reporting provision, of course, was a response to russia's election interference in 2016. bob mueller found the trump campaign welcomed the help of russian agents. warner blasts the removal as a back room deal. he is vowing to offer it up as an amendment that would put every member on record about where they stand on this issue. i would like to know who's against securing this election, wouldn't you? i wonder why republicans would be against something like this. hmm. maybe this. >> if somebody called from a country, norway, we have information on your opponent. oh, i think i'd want to hear it. >> wonder why so many of you are sick of politicians and po

minority leader, the majority leader in the senate, the ranking member of intelligence in the senate, mark warner, speaker nancy pelosi, chairman schiff of intelligence committee and devin nunes, the ranking member of intelligence in the house and kevin mccarthy, the minority leader. so you have the top officials on intelligence and you have the top officials in the leadership level of both chambers. >> yeah, i know who is in it. i just think if i closed my eyes and pictured what the gang of eight would look like, probably wouldn't be that lineup. gentlemen, thank you. >> they used that phrase gang all the time in congress. for better or for worse. >> for better or for worse. all right, guys. thank you. we'll leave it there. >>> when we come back, high-profile house democrats have a plan to dramatically increase their power to enforce their own subpoenas. something trump officials have been ignoring without much fallout. the two congressmen behind the plan join us next. tal foundation from vmware helps you redefine what's possible... now. from the hospital shifting to remote patient care in just

happening and then to do something about it so that's why the four of us, speaker pelosi and myself and mark warner and mr. schiff, the heads of the intelligenc leaders of the intelligence committees have demanded that ray come before us and brief the entire congress, democrats and congresses so first we can know what's going on and then we can do something about it. and if people don't want that to happen, they're playing with the wellspring of our democracy, safe and fair elections. you know, if we believe -- if americans start believing that foreigners can interfere in your elections, that's the beginning of the end of this grand experiment in democracy. >> senator, always good to see you. >> thanks. good to talk to you. >>> still to come, how close are we to a vaccine? there is a new study showing some of the most promising rulgrulg results yet. we'll put that news in context right after this but we're all going at our own speed. at enterprise, peace-of-mind starts with our complete clean pledge, curbside rentals and low-touch transactions. with so many vehicles of so many kinds, you can count

i'm brought to this statement by mark warner. and venture backed deals because these companies have so much control. how -- i mean, that's not a partisan issue. >> if shouldn't be. and one thing that i do think that we should keep in mind is that only business business can afford big government. only these big dominant players can afford to deal with the kind of regulatory pressure that is brought to bear whenever we engage in these types of big government expansion. it's the small people, the competitors that get crushed by it. brian: amazon says yeah you have a product i will knock it off and sell it cheaper. oops. well, wait a second, what are you talking about. all right. so let's talk about something that matters for november 3rd. and that is the suppression of conservative thought. breitbart claims that they have lost 99.7% in visible since 2016. stories that used to trend on their algorithm don't trend anymore. daily caller has the same complaints. and you don't see much from fox news on there. the sites that give you a di
