state of minnesota.oes not represent the state of minnesota and this should make every minnesota angry they have their girls being vulnerable like this. so i stand against that rachel. i can't wait to get back there to my old hometown, and a place that i became a man. and stand up for the rights of these young girls. rachel: i love that you're lending your voice to this this is a women issue but it is all of our issue. here's action that waltz is guaranteeing transhealth care to anyone in minnesota. he's add protections based on gender identity to human rights act mandated coverage for what they're calling gender affirming care had is as you know is child mutilation by insurance companies. riley, quickly your thoughtings on this. >> yeah bottom line is majority of americans reject this absurdity that was made clear on november 5th i believe people turned out to polls to embrace donald trump to embrace cabinet picks to embrace america first agenda and more so i believe people turned out to polls to reject

in minnesota, 87 counties. only nine have full-time year-round elections only people. in most counties in minnesota, a person in charge of elections is also in charge of property tax collection or public housing or inspections. making sure we are getting to the right person at the right time, it might be that person or someone who they have delegated to, whoever it is knowing that person, knowing what media matter to them in their local jurisdiction, could be a small town paper, a local radio station, that was important for the communication standpoint. election security. it was important for us to offer supports to local governments. they might not have staff dedicated to cyber or physical security. we do. we can talk about that. we did a lot of housecalls. security navigation, our team visited all the counties in minnesota. i regularly go to all 87. i am on my ninth tour as secretary. i want to highlight a couple of horror stories to illustrate how the things i talked about came into play in '23. first one, seemingly mundane. we have a couple high-profile ballot prin

here in minnesota, we call it medical assistance in wisconsin. next door to us, they call it badger care. so this is a essential health care throughout the life span. and even if you don't get your health insurance through medicaid, you will be impacted by this, because these cuts will mean hospitals are going to close, clinics are going to close, long term care facilities are going to close. and so the places that you get your health care will also be impacted. this is going to impact all of us. ali, i've been trying to make the case that this is a national security issue. >> you know, you say something interesting here where you say not everybody knows they get their their their, you know, health care through medicaid. and that's actually not a bad thing, right? when government works properly, you don't actually need to know. you just need to know you're just getting your health care. but in minnesota, where you're talking about medical assistance, 1.3 million minnesotans are on this, 42% of whom are children. so just help us understand, you st

and europe's when green restaurants, you know, you just carries on something rushing for minnesota. so gabrielle actually spoke about as well. just following biden's term. there are now people who want to lead with common sense that they say directly that they want to end all wars. they want peace, you who demands a continuation of the gravy train with that war. europe, french president, my crohn is running around with some ideas. just like british p. m. cure storm or just they say that so many thousands of peacekeepers are being trained and they will provide them with air cover. that is arrogance. this plan to introduce peacekeepers and to ukraine is a continuation of the incitement of the care of regina to wage a war against us. no rush of for this has erased concerns about nato is expansion eastwood's. and this is what predominantly actually, and that most great destructive, special military operation in ukraine. and now the british prime minister is basically talking about these new troops of being deployed to ukraine, onto the disguise of peace keepers. and you, they are the so

and i spent two days at her lab in minnesota it was in the dead of winter and. it was 20 degrees below zero. and i went there. so it was they were aspects of it that were challenging. so dr. ash, a very religious person and personally i don't see conflict between deep faith and deep belief in the scientific method and some very important scientist would share that respect as well, including francis collins, who is the director of the nih for many years, deeply religious person, and matthew schrag, who was this central character, if you will, in my book, deeply religious, christian who believes that his religious beliefs and values are part of what makes him effective in a as a person who believes in integrity. so that wasn't a problem for me but what aaron's referring and you can read about it in the book if you decide pick one up is that it was one of the strangest reporting of my career because she was really greeting me more as religious person than a scientist as someone who was a had invited me in because as said, she had forgiven me and that this was part

you're looking at a shot of duluth wisconsin -- minnesota.on the border of wisconsin, to we used to go to duluth all the a time, so i feel like it's part of wisconsin, but it's actually minnesota. there you go, that's a beautiful shot. charlie: so gorgeous. peter: i bet if today had a temperature -- i can't believe the river there is not frozen. rachel: i am too actually. maybe it is and we're just not catching it. charlie: global warming, guys, come on. rachel: listen, they need global warming in that part of the country, no question about it. it's nice to have charlie here, of course, and peter doocy is joining us this morning. peter: thank you, yes. i followed zelenskyy out of washington d.c. rachel: that's right. you were kicked out. you were kicked out and you were brought here. peter: brought here to talk about this meeting yesterday. so, you know, my first day on the white house beat was biden's fist day. i've seen many of these oval sprays. some of them can be kind of boring. of yesterday, top of the list, most interesting, possibly m

. >> leading off our discussion tonight is senator amy klobuchar of minnesota, who met with volodymyr zelensky earlier today. she is a member of the senate judiciary committee. senator klobuchar, always great to see you. you met with president zelensky before he went to the white house today. what can you tell us about that discussion and what you. what did you think as you watched what happened next? well. >> i was. >> horrified because in the morning we had a bipartisan meeting with president zelensky, with senator graham, senator wicker, senator grassley. and by the way, through the week, we had meetings with president macron with a small group of senators led by senator thune. and what i kept thinking is to a. t. the republican senators that have met with these foreign leaders have been very clear that they are supportive of ukraine, at least the ones that go to the meeting and that they believe that vladimir putin is the dictator and that he. started this war. so we start with that. so i thought that president. >> zelensky, this. >> couldn't have gone better this morning. he was

my commitment to minnesota and farmers across our nation has always been to work with an administration when it's right for them, and to stand up to one when it isn't. i do not believe the biden administration focused enough on expanding trade and they didn't prioritize renewable fuels nearly enough and i told them so publicly. and i also have a responsibility to point out that i believe this new administration's early actions are implementing early policies that could potentially hurt our family farmers and ranchers. i sure hope not, but it feels that way. the freeze of dollars already obligated to farmers and ranchers, the across-the-board tariff threats on our largest trading partners, the $2.1 billion usaid market that would go away if this program went away, and the discussion around cutting the supplemental nutrition assistance program. given the tough economic climate and thin margins, farmers don't need new problems, especially those manufactured in washington. mr. chairman, i believe that you and i and our great partners in the senate, senators klobuchar and senator boozman, co

probably minnesota, and i think the french president to support this idea, say the ultimate, they need something that they refer to as a back stop. the us saying that we will support this coalition of the willing and be the as the support for the scottish, of the willing while you listen to those around president trump and it's not the tool clear, but they would pack that sort of proposal. even though there's no suggestion that the us itself will send troops to ukraine, that somebody know things are already being ruled out. the other problem, of course, is russia, if it's going to be a see spot, russia has to agree to a safe spot and rush has made it really clear. but it doesn't, won't make trips anywhere near its territory, which other countries could join the so called coalition willing. we have problems, we have the u. k. no other countries having a publicly set that prepared to come forward. so this is a plan, a lot of doubts about that plan. james pays out a 0 central one to hey training and so being fighting russia for 3 years with arms provided laundry by the united states and e

each of these proposal that is backed by donald to ask the prime minister of poland took his far minnesota is here. he is proposing to took the lead a piece towards that would take place between russia and ukraine and the turkish auspices. that is the pleasure of coming from turkey. some of the things that i've heard of going to possibly be discussed guilt while, while they're here. one of them is the worry among nato members. the perhaps told trump will pull back the troops that were put in place of to the invasion of ukraine. there are 10000 us troops in poland. i think there are gonna be some discussions behind the scenes of what they to who would fill that role. and i think it would be very, very difficult for them to do that. and to find those troops quickly, also remember that those $300000000.00 a frozen assets of russian assets that are in the hands of the you, you at the moment that you use, taking the interest from dice. but it's not sees that money that is still under discussion until another possibility to some of the other discussion is every time that russia hits the tom is a

that's a number that rivals the famed first minnesota at gettysburg. if you're familiar with them, the worst losses for any regiment in the war and. as for the massachusetts 54th, the best known, i think of the african-american regiments in the war, in part more recently because of the film. and it is representative, i think, in many for the african-american experience. soldiers throughout the war, the 54th, the idea at least for a regiment, came from the of massachusetts. a man, john andrew, he was a committed abolition artist as well. and the 54th was organized in january of 1863. and it was be office served by the sons of prominent new england aberlour machinist families. but who had been in the army, who had been in combat in war just. anybody to lead these units. and even though the 54th was a state regiment. it drew volunteers across the country, including two of frederick douglass sons who joined the 54th, one of whom became the sergeant major of the regiment. in april. of 1863, governor andrew asked this man, robert gould shaw, to take command

let's try to use problem minnesota. anthony albany z says his country stands with ukraine, whose people have suffered greatly defending the nation. the people of you crying ass fucking not just for they were on national, suffered to die, fighting for the international rule of law astray. it has committed some $1500000000.00 to help ukraine defend itself. more than $1300000000.00 of that is military support. we will continue to stand with you crime for as long as it takes. well, your claims president will be heading to london next, prime minister k, as donald will be hosting him n e u. lead us on monday to discuss what comes next for ukraine. european leaders have been clicked to defend the landscape after the white house debacle. french president emanuel mack calling says global support. the key must continue i think we all know the situation. they're using the dresser, which is russia, and the people attacked, which is ukraine. i think we are, we're right to have helped ukraine and sanctioned russia 3 years ago. and to

rachel: they're doing it in minnesota.heir going to make ukrainian the official language -- [laughter] rachel: remember, there's that great picture at the state of the union of them holding up the ukrainian flag -- charlie: that's right. they raised the ukrainian flag in the united states house of representatives. rachel: that's right. shameful. that's definitely not happening this year. don't worry, people. meanwhile, the vatican says the pope had a calm night in the hospital where he has been for over two weeks. peter: overnight the 88-year-old leader of the catholic church released a message today -- to the world. charlie: chief religion correspondent lauren green joins us live from rome. >> reporter: hey, good morning. pope francis is recovering quite slowly, but friday's respiratory crisis appears to be an isolated event from which the pope recovered quite quickly. the latest is that the pope rested well overnight if, he is resting and doing some work, and the haven't can -- vatican actually saying the pope very much

. >> is miss is the young adult ministry director for the duluth, minnesota, die seize, and he joinsrachel: this is so interesting. it appears that the number of people who were saying they were christian or faith-filled or religious was declining. it's now stabilized. here's what what -- i dug into the numbers, here's what i find. we'll put up a poll so you can see some of it. 86% still believe in the existence of a soul, 83% in god, universal spirit. i'm fascinated because i think we're for faith-oriented than other countries and nations, especially in europe with, but i'm interested in the male part of this. it appears when you dig into the numbers, it's young men that are driving that that stability. in other words, their numbers are going up which is helping to stop this, this lowering of numbers. to talk to me, because you're on campus. where's -- what's happening to young men? >> yeah. no, i think it's fascinating. and i can completely see it. i think there's something, i think there's something that in the human heart and spirit that longs for something more. and is when ther

and then on the other hand, someone like senator hubert humphrey from minnesota, who was an ardent liberal. so, so part of the navigation within the democrat party for johnson is not just i have a big majority, but it's how do i work through this deep division in republicans were divided between midwestern republicans like senate minority leader everett dirksen, who are pretty staunchly anti-government and and liberal northeasterners like a jacob javits, who were very progressive on issues like race and health care. so the republicans helped lbj out in the early months. they do. so that coalition, it's really the southern democrats and republicans work with him on the tax cut of 1964. again, the first thing he wants to do to get it out of the gate is finish that tax bill, because he says once he does that and he believes the cut on middle class americans will boost the economy, then he can be patient in dealing with civil rights, which he knows will take a long time and getting the tax cut combined with the budget, that's pretty conservative, pretty stringent. he works with dirksen and he

i want to bring in democratic senator amy klobuchar of minnesota.nk you for joining us this morning. you've heard secretary rubio. you've heard ambassador mandelson. your response? >> we stand with our friends, not our enemies. we go into negotiations, the great country of america goes into negotiations with strength, not surrender, and i was appalled by what happened in the oval office. i was with president zelenskyy with a number of republican and democratic senators before he left for the white house. he was if great spirits. he was excited to go and sign this minerals agreement which is something that was very important to president trump, and i think this actually -- what's come out of this is not in president trump's best interest, and so they were -- he went there, and i just couldn't believe it. i watched that video, like, three times, george, and i hope -- you played clips, and it was vice president vance particularly who was on the offense who was berating president zelenskyy who simply was trying to explain that this was, in fact -- we ne

this rule, it applied in d.c., it applied to some states in the midwest, ohio, iowa, minnesota. but in the vast majority of the country, this wasn't the rule. this isn't the rule in california. this isn't the rule in georgia. this isn't the rule in most of america. um, and so moving forward, it probably won't make that big of a difference. >> professor smith, thanks for coming in. >> absolutely. >> thank you. all right. president trump may be adding another name to his long list of pardons. coming up, why trump says he's pushing to get the late pete rose into the hall of fame, despite rose being banned from baseball for gambling. also, a few americans say they feel a connection to organized religion. what a new survey says about faith and its role in american life. >> tell us. >> about accepting bribes. the stuff he did that was completely legal destroys democracy. i'm still not sure that you're repentant. >> i have nothing. >> to hide. >> if he. >> hadn't been such a, he would have gotten away with it. >> they would abuse. >> her on television. >> it was this. >> unholy combina

with that, it is my honor to yield two minutes to the gentlewoman from minnesota, distinguished memberf the budge committee, ms. omar. the chair: the gentleman is recognized for two minutes. ms. omar: thank you, mr. chairman, thank you, mr. speaker. i rise in strong pop still to this republican budget resolution because it is not a budget, it is a blueprint for american decline. let's be clear. they want to exploit your labor, your tax dollars, and gut your earned benefits. all to bankroll tax cuts for the wealth -- for their wealthy friends and donors. they want to increase your health care costs as well. elon musk and his friends hoard even more wealth. and they have the audacity to call it fiscal responsibility. this proposal will only deep then constitutional crisis we are already in. a president trying to rule like a dictator, an unelected billionaire using hate and fear to expand his control over our country. and congressional republicans pretending this chaos is normal even as their own constituents call them out for their cowardice. our government is being hollowed our. our ins

congresswoman fishbach's minnesota district has the second most farmers with over 50,000. congressman fenstra's iowa district has the 3rd most farmers, but what is being done to protect farmers? are we not concerned about the massive retaliation against our farmers that a trade war brings? it always impacts agriculture. are my colleagues, my republican colleagues in particular, are going to allow president trump to raise taxes on the american people without a say? that should be the job of this committee. the constitution is very clear about this. congress, not the president, has the power to impose taxes and tariffs and to regulate foreign commerce. that is one of the basic functions of the ways and means committee. and my republican colleagues used to agree with this back when there was a democrat in the white house in 2023, chairman jason smith said that president biden's trade initiatives sidestepped congress and that the biden administration, quote, unfortunately has refused to recognize that the constitution requires congress be at the center of us trade policy, end
