and quite frankly, mo brooks is one of those guys. you know, this isn't the first time he said something goofy. it's not the last time. you know, they're just sort of getting flies in both parties that say things. >> that's a perfect set-up for mo brooks saying something not goofy, which he actually said on this program last week. let's listen to this. i talked to him about the possibility of a compromise that could get his vote for paul ryan. let's listen to what he said about that. if the speaker candidate said to you, look, i will give you everything you want in process on issues, we will just have to agree to disagree. is that can kind of compromise you can live with, at least you have the process that you warrant so that your view on immigration or taxation or whatever the issue is could possibly come to a vote in the committee with the new process? >> well, it's a weighing process but the short answer is yes. if we can make enough headway on process issues, that helps to offset the public policy issues. for example, with kevin m

also tonight, alabama republican congressman mo brooks, a member of the benghazi committee, who is alreadyating impeachment for hillary clinton if she wins the white house, all of that coming up tonight as well as a special report from chuck on how detroit is jump-starting its economy. but first, let's hit the press box, kristin welker is tracking the veep at the white house. carrie dan has much more on the big new poll. katy tur is with the trump campaign down in south carolina, and luke russert is on capitol hill with the latest on the race for speaker of the house. but let's start with how close the vice president may be to a decision. sources telling nbc news that we could hear something within the next two days. several of biden's self-imposed deadlines for jumping into the race, of course, have already come and gone, and that could happen again here. questions loom over how strong the vp's backing would be if he gets in the race. over the weekend, he spoke with the president of a major firefighters union. if biden does reach a decision by thursday, it will come just as hillary clinto

sincerely mo brooks. ys handwritten at the top of the letter, hand delivered to paul ryan at approximately 4:00 p.m., october 22nd, 2015. paul ryan called mo and confirmed accuracy of letter at 5:20 p.m. smiley face star. not really. so if you're wondering what exactly it was that paul ryan had to do to get his party's hard liners on board with him being speaker, there it is in writing. paul ryan doing a written deal with mr. let's impeach hillary clinton on day one to make sure to promise that immigration reform absolutely positively will not happen. keep that in mind the next time somebody gives you that belt way lip service about how republicans really want to do immigration reform, too. tonight in boulder, colorado just down the street from the site of tomorrow's republican presidential debate, tonight in boulder, republican and conservative latino groups gathered to a big public event which they described as a warning to their own party. a warning to republican candidates ahead of that debate tomorrow

>> mo brooks may be the dumbest man in america. this is not the first incredibly dumb thing he said. i speak as a conservative and he makes me blush and ashamed. he makes me think occasionally of perhaps enjoying my colleague to give the idea of talking in october of 2015 of impeaching hillary clinton. we could get hit by a meteor between then and now. >> anything could happen. >> joe biden could enter the presidential race and she could be win. jim webb could win. well, maybe not, but you get where i'm going here. >> the real problem is that it makes you think of her as president. doesn't it bother republicans to even hear that? >> no, i think the problem is that guys go on talk radio and speak nonsense simply to get time and to get themselves through it it. they cooperate pronounce the word unique. >> he was having trouble with that. >> and he didn't even follow with new york. usually people have trouble -- >> that's a great warm up. >> he couldn't even say new york because it is too far from alabama. >> could you tell me, why do

you asked her about congressman mo brooks from alabama. had him on "meet the press" and he said the grounds already exist to impeach hillary clinton if she becomes president hillary clinton. >> on day one. >> on day one. >> you asked her about that. let's play that clip. >> you don't have the nomination and there's already a sitting republican member of congress from alabama, mo brooks, who says that he is ready to impeach you on the first day of your presidency. >> isn't that pathetic? it's just laughable. >> it's amazing. >> it's so totally ridiculous. >> that is the republican party. it's probably good politics in republican politics for him to say that. >> is-t is perhaps good politics with the most intense, extreme part of their base, i guess that is, or otherwise why would they be doing it? and i think we have to, you know, really try to build a larger base of our own that cuts across all kinds of geographic and political gradations. you know, let's try to have, you know, from a center right to a center left understanding about certa

in a radio interview thursday, mo brooks from alabama said if hillary clinton won the white house, sheld be subject to impeachment because of the use of her private e-mail server. >> with respect to hillary clinton, she would be a unique president if elected by the public because the day she's sworn in is the day she is subject to impeachment because she has committed high crimes and misdemeanors. >> do you like the way he jumped on that word, impeachment? what is their cartoon version of life? hillary is the villainous of our time? >> this is what concerns me about the select committee. we see with the abuse of impeachment, it becomes another tool to be used for partisan purposes. this is what the select committee has become. in the future, benghazi will become synonymous with a partisan abuse of taxpayer dollars. should we form a benghazi committee on this? benghazi committee on that? >> i want to ask you a question. i'm going to put new the hardball corner. in everything you read, all the testimony you gathered, everything you heard on your own investigation, have you seen any evide

. >> mo brooks agreed, he basically said something similar to you, what matters to him most is process and he would go along to agree to disagree with paul ryan on several policy issues as long as paul ryan is willing to compromise with the freedom caucus on at least some, maybe all, but certainly some, of your process issues. could you give us what you would say are the three top process issues that matter to the freedom caucus? >> i think first that we have a process that everybody agrees is fair, that things don't just happen in the back room with a handful of leadership members and then all of a sudden we're told this is what we're going to do. anticipate you all need to be a part of the team. i think we need a more inclusive process that works within our conference. and there's a number of ways to accomplish that. but that's probably the number one overarching principle, is that we want to make sure there's more inclusiveness, that people of both, you know, on our left and our right within the conference are heard in the conference and not just decisions being made in the back roo

but members like alabama's mo brooks were cool to the idea. >> i don't think there is any question thatgnificant number of members of the republican conference have coerced, cajoled, induced paul ryan to run for speaker of the house when he does not want that job. >> reporter: idaho's raul labrador is another freedom caucus member. >> there's a lot of people who can do it. jason chaffetz would be a very good speaker of the house. >> reporter: while many members avoided questions and sought out the elevators, current speaker john boehner pushed for stability... and ryan. >> listen, i think paul is going to get the support that he is looking for. i thought he laid out a clear vision for how he would run the speakership. and i thought the members responded well to it. >> reporter: moderate peter king of new york was less sure that ryan would get enough support, and therefore more worried. >> i don't see who else it could be. if it's not paul ryan, then i think it's a disaster. >> reporter: already, some outside conservatives are on the attack. a group called the tea party patriots released

. >> joining me now, congressman mo brooks, a republican for alabama and a member of the house freedomaucus. congressman, are you prepared to carry paul ryan's gym bag to get him to be the speaker of the house? >> well, i believe that there are dozens of people in the house republican conference that would make excellent speakers of the house if paul ryan decides to run, i'll be thankful that he's in the race. i like jason chaffetz who's in the race, i like daniel webster. all three would have some positive things to offer for that position. >> so you are not in the camp of people that are essentially saying that only paul ryan can hold your entire caucus together? >> oh, no. we have a tremendous amount of talent in the house republican conference. we've got tom price in georgia, marsha blackburn in tennessee, i mentioned jason chaffetz and daniel webster, jason's from utah and daniel is from florida. we have jim gordon from ohio. we have lots of talent and i look forward to having a good selection to choose from. >> congressman, if that's the case, explain to us, as we watch this, the

i just spoke to mo brooks of alabama, a freedom caucus member, he told me luis gutierrez of illinoiscause he views paul ryan in favor of amnesty. number three, paul ryan and whether or not he would change the house rules. they don't want to get rid of the motion to vacate the chair. this camp told me that's something thomas jefferson came up with. why oppose thomas jefferson? they want to hear about paul ryan and his ideas later at a meetle. the question though becomes if these 40 or so members do not make an endorsement of paul ryan, do they run the risk of marginalizing themselves. representative peter king of new york told me that's what they would do. however, they have taken on a lot of heat and still manage to be able to fund raise throughout conservative organizations and they like the purity test. so far it seems like they'll hold to that if he does not get that endorsement from the freedom caucus, does ryan say thanks, but no thanks. that is the story over the next few days. >> as we await the arrival of the speaker -- looks like there's some movement there -- this is intere

to mo brooks of alabama. >> thank you, mr. chairman. >> next to huntsville, alabama, the army is establishing a cyber campus in the aviation and missile research development and engineering center, also known as mrdec. this campus consists of cyber personnel to provide world class cyber security support to aviation and missile systems by out putting cutting edge of cyber security solutions to challenges associated with emerging and legacy technologies. the mrdec cyber campus coordinates cyber activities with industry, academia, and government partners. although an army asset is uniquely positioned to integrate the department of home land security, the department of justice, space and missile defense command, and the industrial base. additionally, it can provide deep technical expertise and reduce cyber threats posed as it relates to hardware, soft ware, firmware, networks, test, modeling, simulations, forensics, industrial control systems, supervisory control, and data acquisition systems. with that as a back drop, and these a

mo brooks of alabama who i spoke to fairly distrusting of ryan and more to do i think with immigration reform than ryan's past support for that than anything else. another said there would not be enough change to move their support of webster to ryan. the question, though, becomes, kate, is let's say the freedom caucus takes out paul ryan and is essentially throwing the entire conference into this chaos, they would be expected to put forward another candidate for speaker because the election is next thursday on the floor. they can't get their support behind someone to get the support of 218 so i personally think from what i've heard today that while they might not be comfortable with ryan, maybe they cut themselves free and cut him loose and then see how ryan responds to that. if ryan is all in on an endorsement from them, tough to see how that happens right now overtly, kate. >> all right. luke russert right outside the door. keep us posted on what happens there. >>> joe biden is out and team clinton can re-evaluate their path to the nomination. steve kornacki is crunching the numbers

mo state rs in the active investment game. a lot of large cities are. they're looking at what their export opportunities are. if rue look at the work brookings is doing about identifying export opportunities, state and local governments of the united states are waking up to the importance of international trade policy for their economic interests. what we talk about from the federal level, it's about getting the states to open up their procurement markets, which i think can be done, but i think the way you do that is to bring the states more deeply into the formulation of trade policy. the u.s. government says we're going to do these things you want on the export promotion front and in exchange, you've got to do some stuff for us, getting serious about your procurement markets. so, i would like to see a much, much closer ongoing working relationship between state and local governments. canadians have done this well. i think it's something we can do. >> i agree with ted. i'mlike so thee that happen, but isn't going to happen. states aren't going to open up themselves on procurement. it's interesting as you said states all have these, many hav
