joining us with reaction, newt gingrich. i first interviewed you in 1990. that was the first time, in a holiday inn in decatur, alabama. i have had a target on my back since i've spoken out as a conservative. i don't think i've ever seen o anything quite like this and to me, it's a real threat for freedom of expression. or maybe it's because it hasm affected me? >> first of all, the left is in a rage. he saw that by the unbelievably vulgar comments over the weekene by perez. these people are crazed. they are unhinged. look at berkeley. look at the college in connecticut. the level of hostility, the level of desire to shut us up, they are so shocked they lost in november and they can't believe it's because they are out of touch because they are dangerous and their ideas are fantasies. we are cheating somehow. there is a war against fox news for practical reasons. fox news is the one place where you get reasonably accurate coverage of donald j. trump. if you are cbs news or "the washington post," you would love to live in a world with no fox news.do there is

the seat is open because its previous occupant, what was once newt gingrich's seat, tom price is now secretary of health and human services. and tonight's special election was already being sold as some sort of a referendum on the trump administration so far, but that was before the president jumped into the fray. first by recording robocalls to local voters, then at 6:38 this morning again on twitter. quote, democrat john ossoff would be a disaster in congress, very weak on crime and illegal immigration. bad for jobs and taxes. say no. 18 minutes he was back at it, republicans must get out today and vote in georgia 6. force runoff and easy win. dem ossoff will raise your taxes, very bad on crime and second amendment. and then again this afternoon, just learned that jon ossoff running for congress in georgia doest even live in the district. republicans, get out and vo. here's how the candidate answers that criticism. >> i grew up in this district. i grew up in this community. of course no one knew there was an election coming. i've been by emory university about ten minutes down the

it was the district of newt gingrich. tom price won there by something like more than 60%.ocrat get more than 48% last night? >> well, let's just keep in mind that on the democrat side they were largely consolidated around their kor nated candidate here and they spent upwards of close to $10 million just on tv alone. $5.5 million compared to roughly $75,000 that i spent on television. to money buys a lot when it is a very compressed race. that won't be the same in the run off. republicans are united. we know this is an important race and it is going to stay in the hands of a republican, and i'm excited about the next 60 days. >> when you look at the numbers, what's getting a lot of attention this morning is this seems to be about more than just money spent because he got more than 48% of the vote. he almost won it out right. he had gotten less than two more points and he would have been over that 50% mark. so is this a referendum on president trump? is this a message that democrats are sending somehow? >> no. i think it is important to understand that if there was one repub

newt gingrich has held the seat.a proxy fight from last year over whether or not ossoff is a progressive, would it help him? it sounds to me like he is actually positioned the way you have to be to win in the sixth. >> i think he is positioning himself very wisely as i heard in that clip leading into this. he is, indeed, progressive on issues of women's issues, health issues. he's talked about embracing the aca, but with pragmatic changes. that's a clearly pragmatic position, let's say. but he's quite moderate on issues of security, jobs, economic issues. he is not for any tax hikes, things of that nature. so you see him reflecting the more moderate republican mood of that particular district. and tom price did reign for quite some time and newt gingrich as you pointed out. both were seen, particularly newt gingrich as part of that establishment. they had close connections. they were weighty individuals. and i think that the mag matism of the sixth district likes they had notable representation in washington, d.c. bu

it's newt gingrich is old district.his is a district that still by thetrump one -- won, secretary clinton almost 22 points better than barack obama did in 2012 in this election. that shows you that people are willing to move when there's an alternative that make the difference to represent their interests, values, and principles. that's what john is doing. race becauseo this he was recruited by local people in the district he is going to represent. he worked for congressman john lewis, interned for him and then worked for hank johnson. i think that speaks incredibly to two leaders who are respected in georgia. the polling has john holding in the first slot. of thelling ahead secretary of state, the leading republican candidate in this race, and two other republicans that are pulling narrowly behind her. candidates,ere 18 everyone else's polling at 1% to 2%. john has the support of so may people across america. volunteers inside the district. he is doing everything he can to reach out to the people in the sixth district

bill clinton was president then and newt gingrich got 70% of the legislation through. his roots. he needs to go back to the grassroots. united we standing, divide we fall. we have a republican congress and republican congress. why can't we get our act together. charles: even john boehner had a 36% approval rating. >> nobody in their what today likes anything going on in washington. so if you are paul ryan you start off with no democrats saying they like the job you are doing. then and lot of republicans say i don't like anything that's happening in d.c. it's fascinating that you had paul ryan and donald trump standing arm in arm on the healthcare bill that failed. the republican conference in the house, there are a lot of members who feel it unless their interest to stand up and take shots at paul ryan. >> that's not good for our party. >> i think it's a big problem and why you will see congress struggle. they have a budgetoming up they have tax reform on the table. a lot ofhings that will be a challenge to get through. charles: president trump gave paul right backing

martha. >> martha: here with more on this, former speaker of the house newt gingrich. former fox news contributor and author of the new book "treason." good to see you tonight. very strong words obviously from president trump for these two dictators prayed where we heading here? >> i think the president has made the decision that north korea after all these years of neglect is perilously close to having nuclear weapons within their continental ballistic capability against the u.s. i think is also made the decision that after a year of being lied to him, were both president obama and secretary of state kerry claim things that were just plain false that assad really is totally unacceptable. this is a change for the president because i don't think he wanted to be drawn into these kinds of problems as early. i think he wanted to focus on job creation. but he's got a great national security team. i thought secretary tillerson was perfect when he said look, either the russians collaborate and knew this was happening whether russians were duped and they're just incompetent. b

steve: let's talk to newt gingrich, former speaker of the house joins us from our nation's capital. he got a conservative supreme court justice, he's reestablished america's role in the world, he will have had i think 29 or 30 executive orders, the most since world war ii, the truth is they've passed about 28 bills in congress that he signed. they didn't pass the one big one in health care, but he has gotten a lot of things done that people aren't aware of. he has a very strong cabinet in place, and the meetings he's having today are a sign of that. so overall, i would think you would have to give him pretty good grades of a direction that's very different for the country. brian: in business, you just make decisions. he says in all of these decisions, you have to have a heart, he told the ap over the weekend and there's no -- a lot of times there's just no clear right way to go. >> look, i think that's a sign of his own growth. you know, he came into office having never held public office, having never run for office before. this was a brand-new job, and he's learning it very rapidly

we will have newt gingrich, kellyanne conway, jay sekulow, monica crowley. it is time to end this gop's circular firing squad and that is tonight's opening monologue. sometimes in life when things don't go exactly the way we want, people get frustrated, annoyed. and there is no more frustrating place on earth than washington, d.c. i get why the president is upset that republicans cannot hammer out this deal on health care last week. the president to his credit has a big bold aggressive agenda. see that list there? he is checking out his promises one after another. i say he is moving at the speed of trump. on this program we have promised to hold washington accountable and that means everybody. while it is understandable the president is frustrated over the gfp health care bill, i am too. but i see it a little bit different than he does. after seven years, almost eight years of republicans promising to repeal and replace obamacare, to me it is inexcusable they didn't build a consensus bill that was ready for the president. the other big mistake is the republi

it was newt gingrich. the contract with america, a terrible time, found myself gravitating toward the political stuff on or off campus. winter i decided to apply for a summer internship with bernie sanders. bernie, the revolution. when spring break rolled around i found out the budget for the french department was being cut and might not be offered as a major any longer. i saw this as a sign so we applied to the university of wisconsin madison to transfer to the junior year and i was accepted. i got the bernie sanders internship, the burlington congressional office. bernie sanders, john kerry, barack obama, just saying. in burlington, around the liquor store, i woke up to see a spider i had crushed in my sleep. it didn't matter, nothing had been more exciting, it was an election year, bernie was in the office a lot and met with constituents more than any politician i have known since. i answered phones and took down notes from voters, at nights i would call people in all parts of vermont trying to raise mo

that's been in republican hands for 37 years including newt gingrich. we've got a fighting chance so we're swinging a bat everywhere, joy. >> i get you're swinging the bat but it's with two people, you and senator sanders. whether or not you think it's important that he actually formally join the party in order to boost the party is because one of the important things joining the party would do is give you access to his valuable e-mail list. hillary clinton turned over her e-mail list to the dnc. will he turn over the list to you? >> that's a question for him. i didn't ask secretary clinton nor senator sanders about what they were going to be do with their lists because that's a decision for them to make. we do have the list from secretary clinton. what we're doing with senator sanders is we've been going around the country and today's our first visit together. we'll be in eight states in six days. i think what's most important for us to be doing right now is translating, joy, this incredible energy out there into action. i think the three things we hav

it was newt gingrich's before that.ter than a publican's wanted it to be in the last election. they are a bit worried about it, right, marc? >> absolutely. the democrats are desperate for a win. they think this is where they will pick it up. they have scored $8.3 million, million, into a single special congressional special election, 97% is from outside of the state. it is not georgians coming around to do this. despite all of that spending, this democrat is only a 45%. he is three points behind where hillary was. >> martha: if they can win, they will have the momentum we talked about? speaking of momentum, mo for you >> if democrats can pull thist'. tom price has won this district by double digits for years. donald trump will be one not by one point. we knew, but the momentum of the energy you are seeing in georgiy close election in kansas last week, there is something going on out there. democrats have to translate some of this momentum into a win. but there is some sort of grassroots energy out there right now that d

. >> john assa in the 6th district, a seat once held by newt gingrich, it would amount to a major repudation of trump, an early sign that democrats could pick up the 20 seats they need to take control of the house in next year's mid terms. one of the challenges they face, frustration that the party has not done more controlling all levels of government. >> there is anxiety about congressional inaction, if you will. this real desire to see the republicans in congress to move from vocal opposition to actually governing. >> reporter: despite the outpouring of democratic support, ossoff is trying to keep the race focussed on local issues. >> it's about values that ignite people in georgia. roimt with bitter gop infighting dominating a crowded field of 18 total candidates. 11 of them republicans. ossoff has consolidated democratic support and is aiming for more than 50% of the vote tonight. if it is short, it will prompt a two-person run off in june. the president had worn the district last year by one point after mitt romney carried it by 20 points in 2012. rising the high stakes, trump tweeted

. >> gloria, you look at the history of it, newt gingrich held it for 20 years, romney 23 and trump only. >> these are establishment republicans, and they're not the kind of republicans that are generally attracted to donald trump. so it's no surprise that the democrats really see an opening here, and you have a lot of infighting on the republican side. and these are the voters that donald trump would like to keep and that the democrats would like to get. and as david was saying, hillary clinton made some inroads here, but it would be considered a huge victory for the democrats if they could take back the district that newt gingrich had, that tom price had, and that mitt romney won by 23 points. >> david, even if the democrats get close, they'll probably try to spin it as a victory even if it's not an actual victory, and the fact that donald trump is tweeting about this tells you he at least in the white house is focused on the race. >> certainly focused on it. and republicans have been for quite some time. more than $14 million combined, democrat and republican ad dollars have been on t

so it's not like it was when newt gingrich was there. trish: there's a lot of conservatives out there that just aren't onboard with donald trump. you look at members of the freedom caucus, for example. i mean, should this be, this big wake-up call for republicans to say, hey, we've got to come together. we have to get our act together. >> it's a wake-up call to govern. because, yes, there was a warning sign in that health care fight. here's your chance to repeal and replace it, and they stumble. not just the president but the freedom caucus, speaker ryan. the republicans have the house, they have the senate, they have the white house. the stars should be aligned for them. i think these special elections to be honest, they're blips on the screen. we heard the same thing about kansas a couple of weeks ago. rich pompeo, the cia director gave up his seat. it was closed, the democrats did better than expected but the republicans held it. here's another one. we'll see what happens in six weeks. the republicans could very well lose it. but it's
