so after the 1st visit of a lot of musicians get in december 2020 to mike mccarthy and kevin mccarthy, i'm sorry. kevin mccarthy. the new speaker of the house denied mister zalinski, a meeting with the full cockers and met with him. and with his democratic problems or equivalent to this morning earlier right now, this isn't as he is with president bible in the white house. and there he received some good news after he just got more or less of a colder or shoulder from kevin mccarthy. the republican speaker of the house in congress. now the good news is for mr. zalinski, is that to me, the president promised him significant help more artillery anti armor systems and the aircraft systems and air defense capabilities. so the a begging and bidding of mrs. a lansky coming to america, and making his case for a critical help that the americans should gave to ukraine and the effort to fight of the russians has been heard and reward it to some degree. stefan simons. they are importing from washington. well, poland government says it will deliver all of the weapons it has previously promised to

to something from a conservative radio commentator who looked at this from the perspective of mike mccarthy how the public sees this. >> putting a guy like mike lawler that you just talked about in westchester county in trouble, because he is in a pie thj noerm and this is a tough situation that you are putting one of the swing seats in california and new york into trouble. we haven't that. >> the argument is that the gop is going to be blamed fob this. how do you see it? >> mccarthy is trying to balance the moderates and the ones who made his majority with the hard-liners who are currently blocking the progress as the tale of the speakership, but as manu pointed out, you cannot look al anything that kevin mccarthy is doing, and deals that he made with the most conservative members of the congress who keeps trying to mollify right now. but those most conservative ones are to come together to get something done, because they don't want to see the government shutdown. >> it is midnight on saturday when it is due. >> tick, tick, iktick. >> yes. >>> this morning we learned that hunter biden is

. >> are you concerned that house speaker mike mccarthy has underestimated the stubbornness or unwillingness of hardliners to work with him? he's in danger of losing his job because of them and if he turns and works with democrats, the potential of surrendering. >> let's not forget that as recently as june of this year mccarthy sat down with the senate republican leader and the democratic leader in the senate and agreed to a spending limit etc., that is what was agreed, and mccarthy is reneging on that, mainly because i believe, too many of the members in his house or unwilling to allow him to keep his word to the american people. >> there is concern that some hardliners, matt gaetz specifically, have floated potential replacements for him if they vote to remove him, is there a scenario in which we wind up without a speaker in the middle of a government shutdown?>> it is possible if the republicans try to follow through on the threats to mccarthy but what i would like to see republicans do is just be reasonable and negotiate with us, don't threaten him, they have tremendous responsibilities.

. >> you mentioned house speaker mike mccarthy, and he might be open to extending it for a month or so, and if he comes up with a compromise that democrats can get behind, would you get behind keeping him and helping him stay as the speaker? >> well, i am not making any promises right now, and i want to see what a deal would look like, and see how that addresses the needs of my constituents. i am here in southeastern michigan and we have a uaw strike going on right now. i remember the last partial government shutdown, and standing with federal workers as they were not receiving paychecks, and seeing the gas cards being handed out, and sitting with unionized workers, and it is just so disastrous. we know it does not yield the results that the republicans are looking for. and $11 billion is what the last shutdown cost, and billion with a "b" and with the high interest rates coming out of the covid-19 shutdown era, we can't go there. >> congresswoman stevens, i wanted to push you on that, because you said that you don't want to make any decisions now which is understanding, because you wa

coach hashtag has key pieces back, he has the quarterback in mike mccarthy and we have a loaded defense under pressure and goes down. >> winningest program in college football histories ready to go make another national championship run, we got this, go, blue. >> i look forward to seeing more of him, he has great insight and great takes when it comes to strategies of the game. >> griff: i'm watching that thinking if you are that young quarterback or on michigan, tom brady is putting a lot of pressure on you, i don't know if i want tom brady touting me as a great quarterback. >> pete: i hope he doesn't know my name either. michigan went on to win like 30-3. maybe he is a good pro pronofticator. some of them just have it. he knows michigan, he was a michigan guy. interesting to watch him cover sports and interview guys. i wouldn't mind being interviewed by tom brady. i will not and that is okay. from sports to patriotism. just a couple months from now, we'll have the patriot awards. if you don't have tickets, get them now, they are going quick. the theater is 2000 seats smaller than what

after the first visit of lome zelensky in december of 2022, mike mccarthy -- kevin mccarthy -- the new speaker of the house denied mr. zelensky a meeting with the full caucus and met with him and is equivalent this morning. right now, mr. zelensky is with president biden in the white house. he received some good news after he just got more or less a cold shoulder from kevin mccarthy, the republican speaker of the white house and congress. the good news is the president promised him significant help. more artillery and the antiaircraft systems. the begging and bidding of mr. zelensky coming to america and making his case for critical help that the americans should give to ukraine in their effort to fight with the russians has been hurt and rewarded. >> did you get everything he was asking for? >> absolutely not. he wanted to -- that is the army tactical missile system. this ballistic missile has a range of 390 miles. that would make every russian unit anywhere in the territory of ukraine vulnerable to ukrainian missile attacks. however, the white house decided this is not going happen.

mike mccarthy who was the packers head coach, came to dallas, he's now calling the plays.hat's a little bit of a change for them. their play caller now is with the chargers. we'll see if it's an offense that makes fewer mistakes. that's the problem dak prescott had last year, too many interceptions. those are the big story lines on saturday night. >> with apologies, i may be one of the wonkier members of the audience who is more interested in the off the field drama around where and how to watch the games than in the games themselves. if we don't have a resolution between disney and charter, monday night football might not be available for a bunch of people. just, i'm curious on your take on the changing media landscape as we navigate through this, and what you're hearing from the audience. is there kind of trying to remember where to find these games and how to watch them and whether this is a great viewing experience for them. >> well, as a ten-year voice of monday night football, i'm glad i'm on sunday night at the moment where we'll be seen on nbc, none of those issues

mccarthy. last night, trump posted this message to his supporters in the house, quote, unless you get everything, shut it down. but republican congressman mike turner is expressing confidence in mccarthy. >> well, this is very difficult. you know, i'll bet on on kevin mccarthy any day. >> and we certainly have time yet to go, but he's in a very difficult position. >> and rhiannon, if the government shuts down millions of federal workers will face a delay in getting their paychecks. rhiannon we'll all be watching. >> faith thank you for that new jersey senator bob menendez is expected to hold a news conference today as he faces more calls to resign. an it comes after his indictment on bribery and other charges. pennsylvania was. john fetterman is the first senate democrat to call for his resignation. menendez over the weekend claimed some people are, quote, rushing to judge a latino. >> nasa hopes a spacecraft that just returned to earth will shed light on how our solar system came to life. the capsule touched down yesterday in the utah desert, carrying a piece of an asteroid believed to be more than 4 billion years old. that's older than ear

mccarthy. i think that mike simpson who is one of the conservatives who serves on one of the spending panels, andd that if he, mccarthy, obviously, democrats are not going to do it for free, the democrats want to have a compromise, and find a solution to vacate the chair which is to have a way to force the speaker to vacate the chair, and this is a threat they have used before, and so last week, kevin mccarthy held a conference call with all of the members and according to me and my colleague manu raju, they said they should hold their fire and hold these funding fights for later in the year when they do the long-term funding bills, so we will see if it is enough to convince the conservatives to back off, but the next few weeks are a messy one for the united states congress, john. >> messy with the fastline fast approaching. thank you, melanie. rahel? >> john, next up is to discuss the late zest is "boston globe" analyst jackie kucinich. i don't know if you have heard president biden's speech in philadelphia, and let me play a few clips of what he said. >> the last guy who was here, you were ship

mike: let's start with the impeachment inquirely and this from house speaker kevin mccarthy.t have it, okay. how do you respond from some of the things you heard from the speaker today about the impeachment inquiry i? >> i had a chance to watch his interview today, and i thought almost all of it was incorrect. he's decided to call for an a impeachment inquiry in an attempt to sort of appease the right wing of his caucus and try to get them onboard for the government shutdown vote so we can avert that. unfortunately, they're not onboard for that, as you just heard from your prior guest. looks like we're heading towards a government shutdown. and the impeachment inquiry is totally illegitimate because no factual basis for any of that, those steps to be taken at this point. and there's no evidence or no -- we don't even know if there's ever going to be any evidence like that. so i think at this point he was wrong to move it forward in that direction. this assertion that it, you know, provides additional subpoena power is definitely not true. he did -- him announcing there's an i

marjorie taylor greene, mike lee, ron johnson, speaker mccarthy.t trump had back in the scheme in 2019. resulting in the first impeachment. but they are carrying water. they are the ones playing towards some sort of miraculous negotiation with russia. handing russia a win. trying to, frankly, undermine u.s. security by undermining one of our closest allies. an ally that is carrying the war and destroying a military that would threaten to destroy us if they had the capacity to do so. so what's amazing is that there's just an enormous amount of continuity between those historical moments, resulting in the first impeachment, and now the capture of the republican party, that is doing the same work for donald trump. >> i was in kyiv with your brother on the anniversary of the war. you and i were in kyiv shortly thereafter. i don't think any of us knew or thought that this war would be going on at this point. certainly not expecting it to go to two years. remember, this was a war that russia experts and western experts thought would be over in a matter o

mike waltz. thank you for being here. speaker mccarthy this wouldn't happen without a full house vote and then he did so without a full house vote. do you know what changed? >> well, look, at the end of the day, one of the thing about speaker kamccarthy, he listens them and there were so many of us that thought it was so overwhelming. i hope speaker pelosi also took credit. in interview for breaking decades and decades of precedent. we told her at the time that if you break this precedent, the pandora's box is open. she did anyway. we told harry reid, 10, 12 years ago, if he broke precedent and started confirming judges without going to a filibuster, that would let pandora's box out as well. that's why precedent matters in our system and speaker mccarthy is following it. >> what changed in the 11 days? 11 days ago, he said he would not do this without a full vote in the people's house. 11 days later, he did it. >> i think he suggested that. i think a lot of people, a lot of people say a lot of things. there are a lot of considerations tha

republican extremist agenda and that is marjorie taylo greene and matt gaetz and kevi mccarthy at the top. what miker and others ar doing is smart politics fo them in that they are going to be able to differentiat themselves at home and run ads saying i'm not afraid to ste up to the leaders of my party. i'm an independent i represent the people of my district that's a dream and to run on i you are in a vulnerable race so, yes, something to watch. >> all rights,en psaki and david jolly. thank you both don't forget, you can catc inside with jen psaki, monda nights in this hour, startin next monday at eight pm. i'm very excited for that. and don't worry, i'm not going anywhere tuesday to friday, i'll be here okay, the ex president control he wants to shut down th government, to stop federa investigations there is even less he can do about the george river case. today we got a look at the defense witness list in th first criminal trial for the attempt to steal the 202 election lawyers for one of the indicte racketeers - filed this list of defendant that may use and benefits they may call in his rapidl a

mccarthy is facing. i think that republican mike simpson who serves on one of the key spending panels summed it up perfectlyrks with the democrats, they are obviously not going to do it for free, so it is a compromise and find a resolution introduced on the floor to vacate the chair which is a reference to a procedural tool to allow any single member to oust the speaker, and the conservatives have threatened it in the past and threatening to do it again if they don't get their way on the spending, and mccarthy is threatening that again, and he held a conference call with the republicans, and they told myself and my colleague manu raju to hold their power when the bigger fights come. but there is no indication of what will happen with that. >> and so, now, what is the mccarthy saying to play the long game, and get this done in the short term, and fight for the priorities in the long term, and is that enough to placate some of the hardliners? >> well, i mean, that is what mccarthy is going to try to do, but he is very aware on the other hand, that there are red lines that democrats won't pass here, and that h

about five republicans to tank it and there's no indication right now that mccarthy has enough votes to get anything passed. mike, a lot on the line. big week ahead. all right, jenna, thank you for that. san francisco's fleet week could actually be grounded if congress cannot come to an agreement. fleet week organizers say they are standing by to take guidance from the navy and other military partners on whether or not they should move forward with next week's scheduled events. if there is no deal in place by then, there will be navy ships in the bay. but there will be no tours and no blue angels air show. even so, the city's hospitality industry would take a hit whether your restaurants, whether your tour operators or whether you have a bicycle rental shop that people come into town, those people get impacted. if fewer people come into town. so the negative impacts of a government shutdown really does touch a lot of people. the city missed out on fleet week in 2013 due to budget cuts and a federal government shutdown. that also meant the city missed out on the million or so visitors. fleet week draws and the mo

mccarthy is facing. i think republican mike simpson he actually serves on one of these spending panels summed it up prettyccarthy, works with the democrats obviously the democrats are not going to do it for free. so it's going to be a compromise. then you're going to find a resolution introduced on the floor to vacate the chair and that is a reference to a procedural vote that would allow the sitting speaker to have a vote to be forced out of the speaker's chair. that is something that kevin mccarthy desperately wants to avoid. now, in recent weeks he has tried to convince conservatives to back off, he had a conference call last week according to me and my colleague manu raju where he argued they should hold their fire and should save these funding fights and demands for later in the year when they try to do long-term funding bills. we will see if that works. >> essentially play the long game, agree to the short-term funding bill and fight for the priorities in the longer term funding. we will see, melanie zanona. >>> this morning ukrainian officials say two people were injured in russian strikes south of

mccarthy. it's not just former president trump. it's mike pence, it's ron desantis. t coming from inside the house, they're coming from outside the house as well. and mccarthy has to be feeling this pressure and this deal which i think cuts across the board about 1%. and just gets them to october 31st. you're already hearing from those most members that they're not going to support it. we know that kevin mccarthy knew his job wasn't going to be easy just trying to settle inside his conference doesn't even talk about what's going to happen next and how to get this across the line so it doesn't get immediately smacked down in the senate. >> and we should under score the people it could hurt the most are americans who rely on a functioning federal government. looks like certainly hard to see the path forward come october. jackie kucinich, thanks very much. >>> and president biden is joining world leaders this week at the annual united nations general assembly in new york. both biden and ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy are expected to address the summit on tuesday

>> reporter: mike, we saw another defeat for speaker kevin mccarthy and a sign that getting out of thet shutdown at this point might be quite difficult. a bill to fund the department of defense was expected to come to the floor, this was a procedural vote to move forward to it mccarthy was going to bring it up last week, pulled it and put it on the vote and dared members to vote against, and five did. that's all that's needed the procedure rule has gone down remember earlier today they were going to vote on another procedural motion to move to the stop gap continuing resolution to keep the government funded until the end of next month. that's off the table although a number of members are huddling in one of the offices trying to hash out potential agreements on how this can get done. one amendment we heard is to put the funding lower. currently republicans were looking at an 8% deduction in some domestic programs that didn't deal with military or veterans and now they're looking for a lower amount than that they want to get the government back to the spending level before the pandemic

mike lawler of new york. thanks for coming on, congressman. tonight mccarthy is sending a message to the senate saying they should drop ukraine aid from their bill. if they do there could potentially be a deal. what do you think? is it even realistic? >> i think the most pressing thing right now is to ensure that the american government is funded and that the american people are not impacted by any potential shutdown. it is critically important that we pass a continuing resolution that can get 218 votes in the house and get obviously 51 votes in the senate. so, you know, we are doing everything we can. i'm still here working tonight and through the weekend to avoid a shutdown. i think putting a cr on the floor in the house tomorrow is important. >> so you would support one without any funding for ukraine? >> as somebody who has been a supporter of ukraine funding and will continue to be the most pressing issue right now is keeping the united states government funded and open. so whatever it takes to get to 218 votes is important. this is not shirking our commi

mike lawlor of new york. congressman, thank you for being here. you heard speaker mccarthy saying the house will consider that conservative stopgap bill. even though it is not clear that there are the vote to pass it. do you believe the votes are there or you know the strategy is night? >> we will work like heck to pass it. i have been clear from the start that i will not support a government shutdown. that we need to do everything we can to avoid one. nobody wins and a government shutdown. the american people are going to be the ones to get hurt. at the end of the day, i fundamentally agree with our conference that we need to cut spending. joe biden increase spending by $5 trillion in new spending in his first two years. that is unsustainable. our national debt has now crossed 33 children dollars. we actually need to rein in spending. we need to go through the single subject appropriation bills. we agreed to that at the beginning of the year. this is not a bright idea that matt gates came up with. the bottom line is were not going to pass them by september 30th, all 12 of

audience if you were just tuning in, representative mike waltz of florida has joined me as we are covering the breaking news now the house speaker, kevin mccarthy, is set to stand up and tell us exactly what he meant when he told fox news earlier today that they are at the point of the next logical step in the movement toward an int inquiry into president joe biden. so with all of that said, what are the next logical steps and do you think at this point you can bring on board those five gop hold-outs? >> look, i think so. i would look forward to having the chairman jamie comer of oversight, jim jordan, chairman of judiciary, really lay out for the conference. there has been so much going on between i.r.s. whistleblowers, f.b.i. whistleblowers, the bank records. look, 160 suspicious activity reports from treasury. bank records we have of the llcs. once you lay it all out for folks we should go to the next step. what i want to get is the actual bank records of the bidens themselves, which they will fight in court. the overseas bank records, which is a whole different process. and what this inquiry will do is give us greater standing to actually g

mccarthy and house republicans. it's, you know, senators like mike braun, quote, why should we be paying for bills for something especiallyt. we can't afford to do it in the long run. josh hawley, we need to level with our european allies and say we need you to take the lead in the conventional europe, we'll take the lead on china. why are they wrong in your mind? >> because this matters to the united states. it doesn't just matter to europe. the united states has benefitted from the post-world war ii order in which big countries like russia and china don't use their military might to invade smaller countries. that stability has allowed american economic and political power to grow. so this isn't just a european problem. this is an american problem, and as we saw in world war i and world war ii, when the united states takes the position at first that invasions of europe are european problems, they very quickly become american problems, and so we're learning from history by stopping this invasion early, rather than lettering putin take all of ukraine, and then perhaps move further into europe. so i just don't agree with my

mike lawler to do. trump is the most powerful figure in the figure in the republican party. the other republicans including kevin mccarthyson that the rest of us learned, that is that it is impossible to negotiate with trump, because their demands are impossible to give into. if you look at what trump said about the shutdown, and you ask what he wants, he wants his criminal cases close, he wants to in the american rule of law. he wants to install himself as the authoritarian leader in this country. when he gets the nomination of the republican party, mike lawler is probably going to endorse him. those are donald trump's roman demands. and by extension the demands of many have his margaret obstructionists in congress. mccarthy knows he can't give in, but he is such a weak leader it's not clear he has an alternative. this is the white house communications director and he joins me now. ben, what is the white house's current understanding of what happens now? it's my job to follow this, and i will admit that i am confused. >> look, it's very possible we go into a shutdown tomorrow night, at midnight. as you laid out right th

mike lawler of new york. congressman, thank you for being here. you heard speaker mccarthy just a few moments ago saying that the house will consider a that conservative stopgap bill, even though it's not clear necessarily tonight if they have the votes to pass. and i mean, do you believe that the votes are there? or is it clear to you what the strategy is exactly tonight? >> well, we're going to work like heck to pass it. i've been very clear from the start that i will not support a government shutdown, nobody wins in a government shutdown. in fact, the american people are gonna be the ones that get hurt. at the end of the day, i fundamentally agree with our conference that we need to cut spending. joe biden increased spending by over five trillion dollars in new spending in his first two years. that's unsustainable. and our national debt as now crossed 33 trillion dollars. so, we absolutely need to rein in spending. we need to go through the single subject appropriation bills. we all agree that at the beginning of the year. so this isn't some bright idea that matt gaetz c

mccarthy brought it forward. >> sandra: interesting analysis, i heard you comment on the issue of pain following a recent interview with mike pence. >> he's done a good job of reorienting the discussion and creating a pro mother, pro family agenda, the child tax credit just expired. will republicans bring it back, foster adoption, come up with the family pro mom agenda, make it the tag line of the republican party. it's not just protecting babies, but storing women. >> sandra: kayleigh, thank you for coming on. >> john: sandra, just outside here across the street from us, near the capitol, this is d street in the area between 1ststreet, second street northeast and the u.s. capitol police, the hart senate office building, capitol police have the area sealed off because of a suspicious vehicle or suspicious situation. the capitol police say that a dog hit on a vehicle of interest and that they continue to investigate. as you can imagine, this has created havoc with traffic in and around the capitol hill union station area. no word yet from the capitol police on what this might be, how serious it might be, but the fact this th

mike memoli is joining us as well mike, nearly 30 lawmakers, six senators, are pushing back on a $24 billion request. speaker mccarthy rejected a request by zelenskyy to address congress to make a broader appeal how is the white house responding >> reporter: it's striking as we will see president zelenskyy shortly visiting the 9/11 memorial outside the pentagon, how different this visit to washington for president zelenskyy compared to nine months ago when he came here, that surprise visit last december it was a visit white house officials felt was a triumph you had the address with speaker pelosi presiding over an address to a joint session of congress as they were putting the finishing touches on a new funding bill for ukraine now you have speaker mccarthy in power. you have him denying that request from the president for that address to congress, saying that he is really speaking for a significant number of his caucus who want to see greater accountability if they want to see any funding at all so that's why the visit to the pentagon is significant. that's something we did not see last december. the visit to the w

republican party in the house moving forward with this, including kevin mccarthy, who is kind of bid to the will of folks like mike gates and marjorie taylor greene who've been wanting to see this impeachment inquiry. but can, back alone, one of the loudest voices in his party's telling them to chill out when it comes to his impeachment. >> charles coleman, as always, thank you for getting us started. -- why making the case for the presidents economic division is going to be key for democrats. plus, house republicans digging in a political retaliation with 3 million kids at risk of losing their childcare. california congresswoman, sarah jacobs, on how to break through the noise. and later, new reporting on fox news being a driving force behind the biden impeachment inquiry. they're wanted for ratings, what about the american people who still trust them? first richard louis with the other big stories we are tracking this hour. richard? >> thank you alicia, breaking news out of texas, attorney general ken paxton acquitted on all 16 articles of impeachment there. the republican controlled senate did not reach the two

republican conference on the senate is split on this, mike barnum of indiana came out and saying impeachment is the way to go. donald trump and kevin mccarthyn this effort will have some supporters, but clearly the senate republicans are going to be even more divided than the house republicans on this effort. dana, it's so interesting when you say this. the donald trump piece of this. this is a classic trump tactic, right? he's facing four indictments and nine criminal charges. what does he want to do? m muddy up the opposition so it seems the same. so months and months of news conference, well, what exactly did go on with bidenjoe biden a hunter biden's business dealings? as we've said no evidence has been presented. and kevin mccarthy said the impeachment inquiry is to get that evidence. and donald trump wants that so badly to mitigate his own legal peril in the mind of the public. as we see in public polling, the perception of this is troubling for joe biden. >> and what he wants to be able to say corruption, joe biden, in the same sentence, regardless of whether we say there's no evidence right now. they just want to have that, that sen

democracy -- one thing leader mccarthy has done an excellent job of is listening to different factions of the conference. we have districts that are very diverse, my hat off to speaker mikearthy who has been able to listen and get input from these different governments we have had. >> the republican from michigan joining us, thank you. in the other headlines, the stage is set for kim jong-un and vladimir putin to meet and discuss a major arms deal. he arrived on an armored train. it's his first foreign trip since the pandemic. the initial stop was near vladivostok, russian reports suggested he is headed for a spaceport. the russian president declared criminal cases against president trump have exposed what is wrong with the u.s. political system. he spoke at an economic forum and said russia will benefit. >> as for the prospect it shows the rottenness of the american political system who pretend to teach others democracy. everything is political. >> the russian leader said it's unlikely moscow's relations with washington will improve much no matter who wins the presidential election. iran publicly identified five prisoners in the u.s. that it wants free for americans hel

kevin mccarthy is in a real bind here between the hardliners on his right and moderates like that was miket? the senate is controlled by democrats. they will have to work with democrats if they want to keep the government open. really seems like, i mean -- were we having the same conversation a week ago? we're nowhere close to getting this resolved. >> i think that is right. speaker mccarthy has adopted strategy of appeasement to deal with the right flank of his wing and i think that we're seeing that policy hit its limits. i thought the quote about why he doesn't understand why they won't just agree to put ideas to the vote and that he is surprised that they are burning the hus ouse down, i thought th was instructive because it tells you both his philosophy for leadership which is just put it up there, let them have their vote so they can take it home to their base and move on with things. we've seen the limits of that now. but also i don't thinks i it is surprising. thing is baked in the cake since january. so what are his choices. of course there is the obvious choice, he can cut a deal

biden district republicans like donn bacon or mike waller out new york, have been reluctant to actually throw their weight around and try to, you know, push mccarthy one way or the other in lieu of instead trying to bead good soldiers and find, you know, areas, you know, for them to have their own political brand. we haven't seen it. ken buck is showing how easy it is if you wantsh to put the bras on something, you can. i think thathi both -- kind of weird way and weird position saying buck and gaetz are making a good point. thego house was already investigating joe biden. kevin mccarthy said he was going to bring to the house floor a vote on whether they would have an impeachment inquiry, but he knew he didn't have the vote for that so he didn't do it and makes this i announcement whichs the same stuff they've already been doing. i think that, you know, shows just kind of how desperate he is to try to find something that would unite his conference. it doesn't seem to have worked. >> yeah. ali, of course, tim is right, house oversight has been investigating president biden for eight months now, but how do you see this impeachment inquiry potential

don bacon, mike lawler, both of whom represent districts president biden won back in 2020, how quickly he'll be able to open it, mccarthyhind. >> congressional reporter for the hill michael schnell, thank you. thanks for getting up "way too early." "morning joe" starts right now. >>> good morning, and welcome to "morning joe." it is wednesday, september 6th. we've got a lot to get to this morning. the longest prison sentence yet for someone involved in the capitol is tack goes to a man who wasn't even there that day. we'll have expert legal analysis on that p

going to bet on anything i'll bet on speaker mccarthy to continue to get the work done and hopefully be successful. >> let's see. we will find out. congressman mike turner, thanks so much for joining us. >> thank you. >> coming up, i'll get insight into the state of the republican party and the e race for the go nomination from new hampshire's republican governor chris sununu. stay with us. you're in "the situation room." mara, are you sure you don't want -to go bowling with us tonight? -yeah. no. there's my little marzipan!

a lot of moderates out there like mike lawler who claimed that they are on separate, gates they are empowering him, they are empowering the chaos, that kevin mccarthy and the republican party has brought to this country. if you vote for them, you are voting for that chaos. there is no such thing as a moderate republican right now. we are stuck in that chaotic world. >> i appreciate you being there outside of the chamber, i know you'll be able to join us as we take a listen to the -- hakeem jeffries right, now let's take a listen to what he's -- getting applause from the democrats. >> at some of my colleagues want to do, unleash weapons of war. they are not used to hunt deer, they are used to hunt human beings. and stretch, children so we worked in the bipartisan way. hey to pass the to safer communities act make progress. for the american people. and then we worked on the chips and science act. that will bring domestic manufacturing jobs back home to the united states of america.

mike lawler is returning to washington. america faces political priorities, health care, the economy, the cost of living, but maga republican leaders like kevin mccarthynd marjorie taylor greene want to focus on the bogus impeachment of president biden. >> that seems like a tough one for them. >> i think it is for all of the 18 republicans that are in districts that biden won. because most americans are not convinced at this point that joe biden -- they are convinced that hunter biden did something wrong. he screwed up, and it's not good that he used his name and his father's position of power to try to leverage to make money, but that does not mean that joe biden did anything impeachable. he had a son with him and addiction and very bad judgment. >> not only that, what is so wild is that if you listen to a lot of what they say, cultural corruption, there's not a lot they can say. even if you can see their stuff, you can't come up with a sentence. >> you can, and they want to get bank records. i got news for them, they are not going to find anything in bank records, even if they get the bank records. this is going to be really bad for the 18 republica

congressman mike rogers says there is something between them and i don't know what it is, it is not policy driven, it is personal, talking about gaetz and speaker mccarthy. we've had shutdowns in the past over the border wall. we've had shutdowns in the past about obamacare. i'm not quite certain what this one is about although it certainly is the animus between gaetz and mccarthy is definitely playing a role. >> it is challenging to explain to the american public why the government is shutting down. 90% of americans have savings. those same people cannot cover $1,000 in emergencies. i had a theynephew trying to fi out what is going on with the shutdown. he is a tech sergeant in the air force. he said how long will it go for and i said you should prepare for two weeks. are you going to be okay? i don't know, but we'll figure it out. i had no answer other than it is football season and they are playing political football with your paycheck. >> and are there are republicans in the house getting frustrated with matt gaetz. there are a lot of authors of this shutdown, but take a listen to new york congressman mike lawler. >> there is only one person to blam

it's more along the lines of hang mike pence, which trump supporters also chanted and donald trump never disavowed. but none of this is a bridge too far for kevin mccarthy. none of it is, in fact, enough for kevin mccarthy to say, enough or to say what general milley said in his retirement speech today in arlington. >> i didn't take an oath to a tribe, tour legend, to a king, or queen, or a tyrant, or a dictator. or a wannabe dictator. we don't take an oath to an individual. we take an oath to the constitution, or we take an oath that this is america and we are willing to die to protect it. >> on january 20th, 2017, donald trump took an oath to the constitution, an oath he breached when he tried to overturn a legitimate election that didn't go his way. that is why he is indicted on charges trying to overturn the election and to stay in power. but here is the thing. every single house and senate lawmaker also swore an oath to defend the constitution. the republican senator mitt romney announced his retirement and told journalists a large part of my party doesn't believe in the constitution. while biden and milley were at arlington, donald trump was tryin

mike lawler, congressman, thank you very much. republican from new york. and joining me now is democratic congressman andy kim of new jersey. congressman, speaker mccarthys who vote against the continuing resolution want to stand with president biden. that doesn't make sense really because even the speaker's not standing with president biden. he's offering a continuing resolution at a much level than what was agreed to in june with the president and with mitch mcconnell in the senate as well as chuck schumer. >> look, what i'll say is that, you know i've been working in government for a long time, and i've never seen anything quite like this. there's nothing that's happening right here in the house of representatives that even remotely looks like governing. what we're seeing is a lot of performative governance, a lot of people saying things, really just kind of boosting themselves and not actually trying to get to a solution. i am terriied about what comes next. a lot of americans are going to struggle. i really hope we have some ability to find adults in the room that can step up and do the right thing. >> republican senator said yesterday he's not cou

ohio congressman mike turner criticized his gop colleagues, the republicans to vote for republican bills and weekend of the shutdown. turner says there's still time for speaker mccarthy to unite his party. i'll bet on kevin mccarthy any day. now. mccarthy is also walking a fine line here because these hardliners like burchett are threatening to remove him as speaker over this. >> in washington, i'm jessi tenure. president biden plans to visit a united auto workers picket line. >> in michigan tomorrow and he will be a first. that's a first for any president. the u a w strike expanded to 38 locations in 20 states on friday after the negotiations with the big automakers did not go as planned. the union members want at 40% wage increase over the next 4 years. and they all makers of agreed about half of that so far. governor newsom is approving new laws to help strengthen the state's lgbtq+ protections. some of those laws include more support for youth and another set, a deadline for a required cultural competency training plan for public school. teachers. there's also an additional law that creates an advisory task force to figure out the needs of the lgbtq+, students, t

mccarthy. money for ukraine is a flash point in talks to avoid a government shut down. neil? >> neil: thanks, chad. i want to go to mike turner. the republican is the house intelligence committee chair. chairman, good to have you. it sounds like he did indeed get the cold shoulder from a lot of your colleagues. is that accurate? >> absolutely not. zelensky was warmly received. i was there in the meeting. the issue really is not zelensky. the issue is not ukraine. in fact, americans overwhelmingly support funding ukraine's efforts to continue to defend their country, to push out russian aggression. the issue -- >> neil: americans might overwhelmingly feel that way, sir, but a good number of your colleagues don't share that. i is that imperilling this aid? >> the last time there was a vote on this is in the last two months. 300 out of 450 members voted to proceed. those numbers are staggering. the issue isn't should there be aid or should we support or concede to russia, which people do not want to do people don't want vladimir putin winning. they understand if he takes ukraine, he will take eastern ukraine and the balti
