mr. boehner, when you went home did you even talk about free trade? with any of your constituents whatsoever. did you go to lorraine, ohio, where a crisis is unfolding? no. he didn't do any of that. our politicians are bought and paid for and they don't give a damn about middle class jobs. the democrats, of course, are not in power. if they were, i'm confident they'd do something about it. the democrats have been jet streaming about make it in america for years. they get no help from the republicans. the republicans want the free market to take over. do you want your kids' school bus going across that newly-reconstructed bridge with china steel or american steel? do you even care? do you even care about american jobs? we have some real fundamental issues in this country that need to be addressed. we could talk about investment. but what we need to talk about, really, is trade agreements that are getting our entire economy and it's going to get to every sector of the economy. this steel that's coming into the united states is going to end up in the ene

mr. boehner indicated that was not being done because it was tough. and people didn't want to too tough things. i understand that. it's hard to do tough things. that's why they're called tough. mr. boehner now says he was kidding when he said that. my view is, he was deadly serious. and the reason that we're considering this bill next week is because it's easy to do. the reason we're not considering comprehensive immigration reform is because it's difficult to do. but comprehensive immigration reform would pay for all of the tax cuts that are being proposed in these six extenders, and, indeed, in the -- all of the extenders proposed by the senate finance committee. they only propose that for two years, not ten years, but it would pay for all of them. in fact the cbo says if we pass comprehensive immigration reform it will mean $200 billion for next year -- excuse me -- for the next ten years and $900 billion over the next 20 years. in december, the budget committee chairs, mr. ryan and mr. murray, were able to come up with a substantial sequester repl

mr. boehner's remarks in which he added benghazi to the mix.act this wasn't front and center in his leadership meeting makes it seem like this is more about really watching out for the base and doing what the base wants than it is about sort of a broad fact-finding mission. that being the case, if that is true, why would democrats participate in such hearings at all? >> look, there are some arguments to be made in favor of participating. if the democrats aren't at the table the argument is the republicans will have the sole microphone. democrats can't elicit contrary evidence from the witnesses. that's true. at the same time you have to ask yourself after umpteen committees that have investigated benghazi, when is enough enough? what powers would this committee have that, for example, dirl issa and the government reform committee haven't already had? he has run that committee with an iron fist, had the power of subpoena. we saw what bipartisanship looks like on benghazi most graphically and one of the iconic images of this congress, when darrel

mr. boehner said the other evening no, difference between the tea party republican and average conservative republican, and we have agreed with him for a long, long time, but it is not about the internal squabbles or the fights, but the reality is that the republican party has no vision on the views of the country like the immigration bill, and the minimum wage raise, and address ing the issues, and some big issue that america is facing. their failure to address the issues is the biggest handicapped and they will pay for it in november. >> congressman joe crowley, good to have you on the program. >> thank you, chris. >> i want to bring in amanda terkel from the "huffington post" and from politico, their editor. and so you have the gop sees primaries taming the tea party, and boehner's comments are not that difference, amanda in the tea party and the establishment candidates and what is the take away? >> well, that is what the tea party is saying, that mitch mcconnell may be the gop, but we are winning the larger fight that he is much more conservative. and so the tea party thinks that they

mr. boehner has to give the republicans something to do. >> when i went through survival training, i was told your country will never leave you behind. it will move heaven and earth to come get you. if you find yourselves behind enemy lines, don't worry. there will be an f-16 and guys coming to get you. at some point. that didn't happen. the youtube video to me is beyond the politics of it. there was an attempt by the administration to cheapen the death of four americans, not give them their due rights of having died on the war on terror. >> that is not true. that is not true. >> initially, they said it was because of a youtube video, not because of the war on terror. >> that is not true. that is not true. the president said that the day after this was an act of terrorism. and the administration has expressed regret for the lives of those americans lost. but if you look at all the reports that have come out about benghazi. there is nothing in the reports that say the administration tried to -- to -- to keep the defense department from doing their jobs. they wanted to get to those people.

mr. boehner's colleagues calling for the head of the va secretary now?ck murphy was the first veteran of the iraq war to serve in congress. he's now a msnbc contributor. patrick, i start with that question. you just heard that john boehner is actually kind of waiting to see what happens, and is not immediately calling for shinseki's resz ig nation, but so many of his colleagues on the other side of the aisle are. what do you suppose that's happening now? >> well, because these allegations, joy, are so outrageous. to have over 1,400 veterans on this phantom secret waiting list to get care, care they've earned, is potentially criminal negligence. because allegedly there's 40 veterans that have died because of it. it's not often, joy, i agree with speaker boehner. but in this case, i do. shinseki made it clear when he found out about these allegations, he immediately ordered the ig to investigate. and he's now called just about 30 minutes ago, called for a face-to-face audit in every va hospital across the country. that's the least we can do. we have to get

mr. boehner is going to be gone and the question is cantor and mccarthy.end, the lovely patricia murphy. patricia, people tend to think of -- by people, me -- tend to think of john boehner as a hapless tanner. but behind the scenes, when it comes to his own power, he seems to be an arm-twister and vaguely ruthless. >> he is definitely an arm-twister. i think that he has reserved his ruthless side until now. i think that he knew that that tea party group that came in that made him speaker in the first place, that was such a wild bunch of people who just had so much energy to burn off. and i think a lot of rebellion in their hearts that they need to sort of process through their systems. and then along comes ted cruz and you have the whole thing going on in the senate. and i think that john boehner knew that he was not going to be able to control this group of tea partiers until they really controlled themselves and had circumstances start to control them. and so ted cruz -- john boehner let him go ahead and shut down the government. that didn't work. and we

mr. boehner's house colleagues already paused the bill rather quickly that would enhance the authority of va to fire people without usual protections that they had before. veterans as a group, it's true, they sort of everyone respects and loves veterans as they should. but veterans as a group are kind of politically interesting. they're overall kind of conservative people. they have a military background and so forth. and most of them are older men. but they depend on big government. so they're in kind of an interesting space in our political system. it's awkward for republicans to be in the position of saying we'll make big government work better because usually their position is privatise smaller government work. i think that's the jam that republicans are in. now, of course, president obama is pushing very hard. his swif working with military families and so forth, trying to sort of turn veterans into a democratic group based on the younger, more diverse military that we have. and this is a huge setback to that effort. >> you with solve that problem. kirsten says amtrak has trouble and

mr. boehner. the bowler of several different minds on how they're going to participate. the three options are to dissipate fully, participate not at all or the middle ground which is to name a single person to the committee as a sign of protest but one that nonetheless allow was a human being who can receive all of the documents in question witnesses. i think that was an interesting idea that gained a lot of credibility at the end of last week. it seems to be fading in terms of democratic support right now. it seems like it is all in or all out are the two options democrats are weighing. i've got to believe that in the end they are going to go all in, that they will not be able to resist the notion that they can go in there, and with the people they do have in the >> alan ota is joining us. the senate will begin work on tax breaks. can you give us some details of the bill? extension ofo-year mainly business tax breaks. things the community cares about. the things that encourage energy efficiency and conservation, wind energy, solar energy. things that encourage research

mr. boehner indicated that was not being done because it was tough. that is why it is hard to do tough things, because it is tough. he says he was kidding when he said that. the reason that we are considering this bill is because it is easy to do. also tax reform, which is difficult to do. it would pay for all of the tax proposed,are being the extenders of being proposed by the senate finance committee. they only propose that for two years, not 10 years. in fact the cbo said that it would leave $200 billion for next year -- for the next 10 years and $900 billion for the next 20 years. , the budgete committee chairs mr. ryan and ms. murray were able to come up with a replacement. we ought to be able to do that as well. let me close this part of my comments with two quotes. republican secretary of the treasury, hank paulson, who said as a general rule, i don't believe that tax cuts pay for themselves. and then mr. alan greenspan, who initially said in 2001 and 2003 that he got the tax cuts would pay for themselves. however, upon review of those , on ats

mr. boehner who sent a response to ms. pelosi friday afternoon. he would consult with the minority when practicable. but make no promises that he would not issue unilateral subpoenas without consulting democrats on the committee were excluded democratic witnesses from interviews. that left democrats unsatisfied. ms. pelosi called the republican counteroffer fundamentally unfair. .tephen from virginia talking about the minimum wage. mitt romney saying you should raise it. caller: good morning. i do some small rental properties here in the area. small family rentals. host: what do you think about this idea of a minimum wage raise? caller: i do supported. but i think some earlier colors have made some excellent points. the people that are living on the minimum wage are receiving government assistance. if you raise them a couple of dollars on the our, it's only $80 on the week. if they have to give up this ,overnment assistance, the snap it's not worth it. their standards of living will not be raised. do you support this idea of a $10.10 minimum wage?

mr. boehner himself will say he he will not try to stop the fundraising. the majority is demonstrating without a shadow of a doubt that like the many, many votes we have taken trying to kill health care that this is a political move. at is the most crass and insult to these four families who died. we keep over and over rubbing salt into that awful wound by bringing this up over and over. how do you think they feel now? knowing what this game is about in the house of representatives. i'm appalled the majority would lose use these deaths for political gain and money. when the families of the victims of americans want to do is ensure it never happens again. but we are doing nothing to n sure that. not only is the majority disregarding the bipartisan findings, but their own process is so wrought with error and partisanship and deception that leaders in their own party are calling foul. the oversight committee has produced several witnesses of dubious quality, but the most recent one, brigadier general, to testify about the minority and -- was only given his na

boehner tapped to head the committee. here is some of the debate before the vote. >> mr. speaker, i believe all house and the american people deserve to know how i came to the decision that brings us here today. on september 11, 2012, a terrorist attack on a consulate in libya last four of our countrymen dead. including our ambassador. since that time, for committees of the house have been investigating these events. those committees have done exemplary work. chairman isaiah, chairman mikita , chairman rogers and chairman royce, and all the members of their respective committees deserve our gratitude. , the line was crossed in two places. first, it came to life at the white house did more to obscure what happened and why than what we were led to believe. second, we now know that the administration defied a formal congressional subpoena. our committee saw that the full truth. the administration tried to make sure that they wouldn't find it. a try to prevent the american people from finding the truth as well. in my view, these discoveries compel the house to respond as one

mr. speaker, john boehner, the speaker of the house, has announced that the gentleman from south carolina, a distinguished federal prosecutor , a reliable person who serves in this body is not the least bit interested in the political outcome. in fact, he's interested, because i know him and know him well in doing the things which are under the charge that we at the rules committee and that this house today, i believe, will give him. that he will well and faithfully discharge those duties that have been given to him as the chairman of the select committee. and i believe that the speaker of the house has met with former speaker pelosi, now the minority leader, to ask the minority leader to please offer him the ames of those five personnel members of congress who might represent the democrats or the minority in this case an opportunity to be a full and forthwith member of this committee. it is our intent that these 12 people will work together, not apart, that they will work with a mandate that is clear and that provides them the necessary information and the discretion to the full extent o

the focus has been on him thus far but you can hear john boehner there redirecting to mr.nseki's boss. your thoughts on the president. >> the president took three weeks before he came out and acre knowledged the gravity of the situation. we've had veterans that have died. they have known this for a number of years. they admitted 23 veterans died because they were waiting for care and for the president to have gone forward with the attitude just showed another lack of leadership on his part but again, i'm trying not to make this political. this is about the veterans and the people who have earned the benefit that they are supposed to get and that is health care in a timely fashion. >> ralph, i know you've been an advocate of general shinsekis, although he'll land h1on his fe and be fine. what does it mean for the president? >> megyn, it's not a sad moment for me, it's a sad moment for veterans. the american people have lost faith in congress. so by the chairman's logic, congress should go, too. president obama when it comes to vets, so often in so many spears, he says so ma

mr. mcgovern: when speaker boehner became speaker of the house he made a pledge to allow the house to work its will on major issues. this is a major issue. this is a major issue. if my friends want to know why the majority of american people think that this place is dysfunctional,s the reason. that we can't get a vote on an issue as important as the war in afghanistan. there's really no excuse. it is germane. we spent a lot of time working with the parliamentarian to make sure it's germane, to satisfy concerns of the majority. it's we did that. it's bipartisan. it's bipartisan. and the people who are co-sponsoring the amendment, some of us want to end the war now, some of us believe we need to keep troop there is for a period beyond 2014. i mean, we have jump through the every hoop. hat else can we possibly do? and for some reason, somebody in the leadership here said no. the house of representatives will not be able to work its will when it comes to afghanistan. mr. speaker, i'd like to ask unanimous consent to insert in the record a -- an article entitled cnn poll, afghanistan war, argua

mr. speaker, few people do disdain as well as speaker boehner.agues or won't do what the chamber of commerce tells them to do, for example, on illegal immigration. disdain for the tea party, certainly. he also does a pretty fair payment. about a year late, but the speaker is finally ready to get serious about investigating benghazi in the white house that has covered this up for about a year and a half. two allies have led the congressional republicans who control in the 2010 elections and have earned a leading role and commerce and mike turner of ohio. he is also a senior member of the oversight committee and chair of the house armed services committee. the first name mentioned on capitol hill today is that of trey gowdy of south carolina. he is a stalwart leader on both the oversight and judiciary committees and successful prosecutor as a district attorney and a u.s. attorney. they will tell us about how committed he is to the truth as well as a timely resolution of what has been a year and a half of frustration. and we have a special surprise

mr. shinseki is unhappy because bad news did not get to him. john boehneris right it's a systemic problem. this enormous blob of the federal government has trouble getting information to it. one has to believe there is a stronger incentive to put in place mechanisms so that bad information does rise. >> i found it -- it was obvious that he told him he couldn't stand by him any more. he was quite protective in his remarks. the president was. >> he said what chgeds change was eric shinseki decided he was going to be a distraction which is what we often hear from resigning anyone. >> when they are told they are distraction. i mean, i do think that he was acting last night and this morning as if he was going to keep his job, but president obama often does too little too late in the face of a crisis. if everyone thinks someone should be fired, he actually doubles down and doesn't do it. it was not the problem. it was remarkable that problems did not surface to the level that rick saw them and we weren't able to see them either and that is a real problem because

mr. horsford: we are back here in session for two weeks. the senate has worked and passed a measure to renew unemployment insurance, yet speaker boehner refuses to bring up a bill. why, mr. speaker? one of those 2.8 million americans is mitch from nevada. he's 55 and lost his job of eight years in march of 2013. since his unemployment insurance ended, he has sold many of his belongings just to stay in his house and to feed his family. mitch is a republican, but more importantly he's an american. and he's pleading for congressional leaders to not turn their backs on him for all struggling nevadans, i want you to know that we have not forgotten about you. mr. speaker, schedule a vote to extend unemployment insurance benefits to the 2.8 million americans, the 37,000 nevadans, my time may have expired but it's more important that unemployment -- the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. for what purpose does the gentlewoman from -- the gentleman's time has expired. for what purpose does the gentlelady from florida rise. ms. ros-lehtinen: unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. the speaker pro tempore: without objec

mr. holt: thank you. yesterday, speaker boehner said he was not qualified to debate the science of climate change, but he onfident that all plans to deal with climate change would hurt jobs and our economy. mr. speaker, i'm a scientists but that doesn't uniquely qualify me to debate climate change. as members of congress, we rely on the expertise of others to inform our decisionmaking. and i agree with the overwhelming consensus among scientists, the climate is changing largely the result of human activities and we can and must act now. not because i am myself a scientists but because of peer reviewed reports like the ipcc and the national climate assessment. less than a year ago in a speech announcing his climate action plan, president obama said wee direct the e.p.a. to put an end to the limitless dumping of carbon pollution. this coming monday, the president will make good on his promise when the e.p.a. proposes the first-ever limits on climate -- on carbon pollution from existing power plants, which are responsible for about 40% of u.s. carbon pollution. we as a country have already been forced to end

boehner and donahue. i think the president is on to something, though a bit misplaced. mr. obama says there is a window of a few months mch he and the republican house leader might pass comprehensive immigration reform. i actually think there are a few months of real opportunity for the house leadership to not only con found and frustrate their constituentses but a real clear opportunity in which to turn over the midterm elections to the democrats. and the most recent polls are showing just that possibility. we are at the edge of what so many had feared. a confident, overreaching and clumsy leadership now energized and apparently utterly committed to eelectoral disaster. time for a few of your comments. authors of today's e-mail, tweets and facebook posts receive a copy of my new book, border war. co-written with a former dea agent. last night, we asked whether the republican party should pass an immigration bill added vow indicated by the chamber of commer commerce. virgil tweeted us to say, no, secure our borders, enforce our him xwrags laws. problem solved. patty tweeted

mr. speaker, they all work? but you only cite just a few in your neighborhood? boehnerect spokesman for charter schools. public education surge is struggling, no question about it. thanks to the republican mission to stamp out all of its resources. no federal funding. that's what their world is all about. it's billed as an opportunity for a premiere education. the program, i think, is a wolf in sheep's clothing. charter schools are an effort to kill teachers unions and shortcut funding for public education. now a new report is out published by the center for popular democracy and integrity in education. highlights rampant abuse in the charter school system. that would be rampant abuse in the charter school system. we all on the same page now? how about over $100 million of taxpayer money has been lost to waste and fraud in not one, but 15 states alone. charter schools are a business with one bottom line. it's the money. we're not talking about educating children unless we mean all of our children, right? charter schools can pick and choose their students, leaving other

mrs. clinton. >> catherine, you've been covering this from the beginning. what happened in these meetings between john boehnernd nancy pelosi to go from just last week pelosi saying, benghazi, benghazi, benghazi, not wanting to talk about it, to now saying, well, we need to give validity to this effort? >> i would even say that -- just yesterday on the senate floor, are barbara boxer said that benghazi was a kangaroo court. so this was the talking point about the select committee and there has been a significant shift. i can't speak to the conversation between the minority and majority leader, but what i can say is that there's a real recognition that this is going to be a serious-minded investigation. the republicans have chosen people with the requisicquisite oversight background, the legal background, two are former u.s. attorneys, and they will be able to move through this in a more methodical way and they will be able to fill in these gaps. it's these gaps that represent, i believe, based on my reporting, real jeopardy for the democrats, for the white house and even more specifically for former secretary

mr. obama is going to beg is negotiating is going to be blocked by a left right coalition in the house of representatives in defiance of their own leaders, john boehnerancy pelosi. tavis: you were right about the facts, no doubt about that and huge disconnect between the facts you laid out the do in fact make up opinion of the american public disconnect between that reality and the fact that in washington nothing can get done even when polls indicate this is want.he american people the question is not what do the american people want. folks in thet the building behind you to come together and do something on issues? >> the politicians in the pockets of the wall street point amebacks are terrified of left right alliance because they know it will get press he it mere verbal agreements by millions of people left right into more like ifative visibility they have marches or if they picketsonstrations or or if they even have petitions, left right petitions going to state legislature or the senator representative. i have seen it operate, tavis. it operate. the n.s.a. vote against snooping lastt went to the house year. and the intervention in syria we anothe

mr. president, we need urgency. we need you to roll up ore sleeves and get into these hospitals. >> still a number of republicans, including house speaker, john boehner, are not calling for shinseki's head. they said that won't necessarily fix the problem. >> i've not called for general shinseki to resign, although i have to admit, i'm getting a little closer. but here's the point. this isn't about one person. this isn't about the secretary. it's about the entire system underneath him. >> late yesterday, the house overwhelmingly passed a bill to make it easier to fire v.a. managers for poor performance. but the white house is reluctant to endorse it. critics say it might make it more difficult to recruit good managers. >> wendell goler live at the white house, thank you. is anybody talking about solutions? can the system be fixed or is it inherently broken? joining me now, retired lieutenant colonel oliver north, fox news military analyst. great to see you, colonel north. here's the big question today. would you feel comfortable in trusting your own personal health to the v.a.? >> well, i did. in fact, had it not been for the fox medical plan, i migh

basically boehner faced incredible political pressure inside of the capital in the building to do something like this. conservatives have been asking him for months, the four committees, mr. connelley sits on one of them, probes for months and they didn't get what they wanted. he faced internal press smurps and part of pelosi's decision here, if republicans were left on this committee alone, completely alone, they could take a deposition from a witness and release selective bits of it to make it seem like they're building a narrative that would work for them. that's extraordinarily dangerous. and a lot of senior democrats have said to me that the initial reaction from pelosi and many house democrats to boycott it, i mean, from across the board was an emotional one. they were like this committee is nonsense. we shouldn't take part in a sham. but then they kind of had to move towards this participation because strategically, you heard people like henry waxman who's a veteran of these investigations say we don't believe it's a good thing. we don't think anything is going to come of it, but if it's happening, we need to be there. >> alan west who can be a little bit wild was

mr. speaker, immigration reform, if presidents can turn off the very provisions that we pass. >> but today, for reasons that will be debated, the white house decided to give speaker boehnero pass some kind of reform. the administration has announced a delay in the review of its options of executive action on deportations until after the republican primaries this summer. as one white house official put it, the president believes there's a window for the house to get immigration reform done this summer and he asks the secretary of homeland security, jas jay johnson. but no good deed goes unpunished given the extra time to maybe actually do something speaker boehner was indignant. enforcing the law as written, isn't a concession. it is the president's solemn responsibility wrote boehner speaks spokesman michael steele. now isn't the time to play politics with immigration enforcement or the national security. joining me now, cofounder and managing director of "united we dream." and washington bureau chief for "buzz feed." john, i'll start with you. delays not just because democrats are overcome by a spirit of good will. there's a strategy mere, right? what is it? >> the basi

mr. ramos, thank you for being with us tonight. >> great to be here. >> that was pretty remarkable interchange between you and the house leader and the senate leader today. what did you make of speaker boehner'se today when he looked at you and explained or at least he said he explained why he is blocking immigration reform. what do you make of his response? >> he's blaming president barack obama and the only person right now, the only person that is blocking immigration reform is speaker boehner. he can bring to a vote immigration reform next tuesday but he simply doesn't want to do it. my take is that they think that they can get away without immigration reform, win the mid terms and wait for presidential candidate in 2016 to define what to do with immigration. latinos will remember and they'll remember in 2016 and they'll lose the white house again because 60 million latinos are going to go to the polls and they'll remember that speaker boehner decided not to bring immigration reform to a vote. >> in terms of your follow-up questions today to senate majority leader harry reid, he told you if something isn't done -- he had a specific time line. he said if something isn't done within the nex
