mr. leader, i don't think that's right. in 1956, eisenhower nominated brennan, the 84th congress was democrat controlled, and also on the biden rule, he was talking in the abstract. there was no nominee, no nominee was blocked, and he said to not have the nomination come up before the election, but it could come up after the election. and so what democrats say when they hear you doing this is they say he's creating new rules to essentially do what he wants to do. and as you have written in your book "the long game" when you do that, it actually hurts democracy. >> yeah, well, that's not at all what happened, john. you're completely misconstruing what happened. what i gave you is the history of this. i know the history of this. i have spent a lot of time on this throughout my career. what i did was entirely consistent with what the history of the senate's been, and that situation going back to 1880. >> well, i think the 1956 example and also in 1968, later in the election cycle, when a democratic president put somebody forward, the republican leader worked with him to get that person a hearing and get him towards the supreme c

biden doing what president trump will not. we don't know, to be clear, how or if this relates to the other intercepted devices. we did speak to mr. steyer because he fits like the other people in this battlefield. here is what he said on the beat. >> i view these attacks as profoundly anti-democracy and basic terrorist attacks. i'm consider concerned about the safety and health of everybody that i work with but i don't think we can let this kind of terrorism change our participation in the american political system and our democracy. >> that's one of the central questions we face. when you look at this and the way the president is handling it, what else should be done? >> frankly, i don't think we can expect the president to act as we need the leader of a democracy to act at this moment. i think it's incumbent of republican politicians. let's be unified. it's about vilifying as former vice president joe biden said, vilifying our political enemies to the point where they are anti-american because they disagree with us or they are even subhuman in some cases. some of the rhetoric is straight out of the white nationalist movement.

mr. leader, i don't think that's right. in 1956 eisenhower nominated brennan, the 84th congress was democrat controlled. and also on the biden rule, joe biden was talking in the abstra abstract. there was no nominee, no nominee was blocked and he said to not have the nomination come up before the election, but that it could come up after the election. so democrats say when they hear you doing this they say he's creating new rules to essentially do what he wants to do and as you've written in your book "the long game" when you do that it actually hurts democracy. >> that's not exact -- that's not at all what happened, joe. you are completely misconstruing what happened. what i gave you is the history of this. i know the history of this. i've spent a lot of time on this throughout my career. what i did was entirely consistent with what the history of the senate has been in that situation going back to 1880. >> well, i think the 1956 example and also in 1968 later in the election cycle when a democratic president put somebody forward the republican leader worked with him to get that person a hearing and get him towards the supr

mr. president? >> reporter: cnn is told trump made no phone calls to any of the targets of the attacks including clinton, former president barack obama, and former vice president joe bidenn became the tenth known target of the attacks today, after two packages similar to the ones sent to other prominent figures were discovered in delaware postal facilities, setting off a new wave of alarm in the country. now, wolf, the president hasn't called anyone targeted in these attacks, but he did phone the governor of new york andrew cuomo. they talked about the investigation and cuomo told brooke baldwin earlier that the president, quote, pledged full support from all federal authorities. when asked if they talked about the president's rhetoric during that phone call, the governor said, no, but they did discuss the investigation. wolf? >> kaitlan, thank you very much. we have our panel here, correspondents and analysts, a lot to assess. i want everybody to stand by. we have to take a quick break. we'll be right back. breathe freely fast, with vicks sinex. my congestion's gone. i can breathe again! ahhhh! i can breathe again! ughh! vicks sinex. breathe on. - at afor the financial

mr. trump couldn't miss a chance to campaign for chris kobak. republicans running in close races here in kansas. he also went after potential 2020 candidates, including cory booker, elizabeth warren, former vice president joe biden, senator richard blumenthal. but it was clear that trump was eager to take credit for salvaging the nomination of brett kavanaugh which at one point looked to be doomed in the senate and previewed a lot of what we'll hear as republicans close in on one month until the midterms. >>> a lot of republicans and president trump celebrate kavanaugh's confirmation. the allegations against brett kavanaugh prompted protests around the united states. look at the scene in seattle, washington, just outside the federal courthouse there. hundreds of people marched to make their voices heard. they marched for victims of sexual crimes and against justice kavanaugh. this, the scene in new york city. dozens of people there gathered at washington park to show solidarity with those who accused kavanaugh. >>> also the scene in the capitol of texas there on congress avenue. protesters made a human chain blocking that bridge. police eventually arrested 14 people. the biggest protest was in front of the steps

mr. o'rourke: every year, allegheny college presents an award for civility in american politics. one of the first years, it was awarded to senator john mccain and vice president biden. another year, it was awarded to the family of the late justice antonin scalia, and justice ruth bader ginsburg. last year, i was fortunate enough to receive the award, along with feel hurt. our ability to travel across the country as republican and democrat in a car and facebook livestream the whole thing, then get to work in congress, enjoying one another's legislation to do better for congress, regardless of party differences, was recognized. it is the same kind of approach i take to just about everything i do in congress, everything i do in life. when we found out veterans were on them access mental health care services, half a million veterans were denied the ability to go to the v.a., i worked with my colleague from colorado, mike coffman. he is a republican and i am democrat but we were able to compromise, a four letter word among some in the, to provide legislation that passed the house of representatives, 435-0, passed the senate as well, and was signed into law by the presid

biden said he hopes democrats don't try to impeach president trump. do you agree? >> i think he's absolutely right. i've told my colleagues all along if we're telling the republicans to let mr. mueller complete his investigation before we even consider such discussion we should do the very same. let this investigation complete its course, and that includes the house investigation opening up again, because it has different purposes, different stated purposes. and at that, when the report is done, and we look at both, and we see what the details are, then if it is appropriate, we'll talk about such things. but right now let's let this investigation take its course. let the american public find out what actually happened. >> let's turn to the ongoing questions surrounding jamal khashoggi's disappearance and apparent murder. secretary pompeo says the investigation will be complete, thorough and transparent. why do you believe the trump administration is relying on the saudis rather than u.s. intelligence agents? >> i have no idea why the administration nor the president is acting as sort of a quasi legal counsel for the saudi government. let's remember what we're talking about

biden. as we all know he lives in the state of delaware. the fbi and local police responding to a povertial facility in new castle, delaware, perhaps tracking yet another package. mraid we don't know where the end of this is. we may find more packages somewhere in the povertial system, maybe left in post offices. how does the nypd handle that? what do you do with the prospect of there could be many more of these floating out there? >> i think first thing is not to allow a culture of fear. we want to educate people. this is happening, they can be part of protecting themselves and everyone around them. we want everyone to participate. we're not going to allow a culture of fear. this can be handled. what these individuals or individual has done is created a clear pattern. not a lot of subterfuge here. we know what they are doing. people can see it, address it and be ready for it. it may go on for days or weeks. we can't be scared of that. we have to recognize that one thing very clear. nypd and our federal and state partners overwhelmingly, overwhelming percentage of the time find the perpetrators and usually pretty quickly. that track record is clear. people need ha
