congressman paul gosar tweeted biden ordered the hit on trump at mar-a-lago. congresswoman marjorie taylor greene tweeted the biden doj and fbi were planning to assassinate president trump and gave the green light. president biden was not trying to kill his political rival, but you know who doesn't think that's a bad idea? donald trump. his lawyers literally argued before the supreme court that as president donald trump should be allowed to assassinate his political rivals. and where was the right-wing shock then? congressman dan goldman joins me to discuss all of nis coming right up next. man joins me to discuss all of nis coming right up next. hi, i'm kevin, and i've lost 152 pounds on golo. i had just left a checkup with my doctor, and i'd weighed in at 345 pounds. my doctor prescribed a weight loss drug, but as soon as i stopped taking the drug, i gained all the weight back and then some. that's when i decided to give golo a try. taking the release supplement, i noticed a change within the first week, and each month the weight just kept coming off. with go

which explains why georgia representative marjorie greene and arizona representative paul gosar picked and said that biden was looking to assassinate trump in order to hit during the mar-a-lago raid. that's a grotesque lie which flies in the face of many arguments they advocate for, including the argument for presidential immunity and police immunity and joining me now is my former civil attorney for the southern district of new york and president on the civil and human rights and tim miller, host of the bull work pod cast and maya, my friend. i want to start with you. i just feel that we have to remind ourselves as the republicans are pretending that donald trump was being targeted for assassination when the doj -- after 18 months of begging and pleading, raided his home. they argued -- i don't know if we have this sound bite. that a president has complete immunity. and that donald trump as president could use the military to assassinate his political opponents. and yet their argument against raiding mar-a-lago is that that operation by the fbi, using standard procedures, was an attem

now, she is mainstream republican at this point, and she, and paul gosar, who have crazy aches extremistemitic beliefs, are now credited as being legitimate maga republicans because donald trump has adopted them for his own political expediency. but, we cannot move the spectrum to the point where marjorie taylor green and paul gosar become normalized, and they are not normalized just simply because they support donald trump, but that is where this republican party is and that is why it is so dangerous. now, what they say has no relationship to the facts of anything. but, they have a pulpit, and they have increasing amounts of power in this congress. and in a mere six years, marjorie taylor green has emerged as the face of the republican party, and that should scare everyone, whether you are republican or democrat. >> yeah, and it is not just this domestic concern over all of this, there is also a geopolitical concern. moscow, the kremlin propaganda machine has picked up on this, and is having a field day with this. there are headlines, "fbi planned to kill donald trump: details revealed

congresswoman greene and congressman thomas massie and congressman paul gosar ended being republicansoting against tabling the motion to vacate resolution. some of the test those folks have said it's because they have procedural votes. and wanted an opportunity to vote on the actualolutn because it was privileged and they would vote against it. y embarrassing developed for congressman for ied to spin it by saying republicans are on the record. you can see who is part of the unity party but i don't think she will run and try to offer another opportunity for ousting johnson anytime soon and that's the indication now. itid not go the way she had intended. also because there is not any must pass pieces of legislation coming up soon. that would be a catalyst for her having to spark this resolution before it was the government funding process and then it was fisa and then testing ukraine aid which are hot button issues that divide republicans bitterly. we't add that until september but we had to do with government funding and the expectation is it glide path until then. the so is a caveat w

paul gosar of arizona. marjorie taylor greene. thomas massie of kentucky who, you know, aligned with greene on this. alex mooney of west virginia. berry moore of alabama. chip roy of texas. victoria spartz and marjorie taylor greene basically said that mike johnson was unfit to be speaker. she criticized him over fisa. she criticized him over dealing with democrats to move the foreign aid package and spending bills. this is an interesting situation here because it was basically democrats who salvaged mike johnson as we often say it is about the numbers. and the democrats making the decision with 11 republicans voting against mike johnson. otherwise, we would have had a vote later tonight on removing mike johnson had democrats not come to his rescue. bret? >> bret: so, chad, does this end this effort permanently? >> not necessarily because what greene did and about 45, 46 days ago. she lorded this resolution over mike johnson. and what she did tonight is she triggered it. she made it privileged. meaning it goes to the front of the

this afternoon speaker johnson met with representatives marjorie taylor greene, thomas massie and paul gosar for nearly two hours discussing their list of demands. they want the speaker to implement something known as the hastert rule by only putting bills on the floor that have support from the majority of the majority. they also do not want any more ukraine funding. they want to defund special counsels like jack smith. and they are also demanding that johnson pass a government funding bill before election day that enacts a 1% spending cut across the board. now, greene originally said she was triggers that motion to vacate this week but hasn't softened her stance to now no deadline. >> we didn't give a specific timeline but it's pretty mortgaged. >> now, we caught up with the speaker today who says he is not negotiating any kind of a deal. he simply discussing ideas. >> look, we're talking through ideas and suggestions. what i do with all members all the time. nothing unusual about. >> ukraine. >> we are talking through a lot of ideas. >> aishah: johnson is framing these talks as normal mem

so far, only two other gop members, thomas massey and paul gosar have publicly supported marjorie taylor greene's effort. what happens next? where is the house go from here? democrats have expressed their willingness to work across the aisle to get something done in the house but the extremists within the republican party see bipartisanship as an affable unforgivable sin. even though trump is being t forced to spend most of his time inside the courtroom as a criminal defendant, he remains defective the leader of the e gop, his influence is undeniable. he is the clear source of the issues that continue to drive a wedge in the republican party, causing chaos within the political system. joining me now is hayes brown, opinion writer for the msnbc and steve bannon and an msn pc lyrical contributor, and author of the book the imposters, how republicans quit governing and seized american politics. marjorie taylor greene is facing quite a bit of pushback for her allies and others in the republican party or as many are republic to oust mike johnson. why is she moving forward with this plan to te

so far only two republicans are backing her effort, thomas massey and paul gosar.shots this time. democratic leadership said their caucus would vote to table or rather kill greene's motion. a procedural move in the interest of actually getting stuff done. joining me now is michael steele, former rnc chair and co-host of "the weekend" on msnbc. michael, why is marjorie taylor greene? >> yeah. why is marjorie taylor greene. look, this is -- this was created not by, you know, mike johnson or the current caucus. this was kevin mccarthy's creation. this was matt gaetz creation. we forget how they sort of pushed her to the front of the line because she kind of brought that energy. she was ready and willing to throw the hammer, right? and kevin loved it until she turned around and whacked him upside the head with the hammer. so, they created this. they gave her the power. you know, remember, the last speaker, you know, before mccarthy, you know, they tried to contain all of this. they tried -- no, we're not going to give you the posh committee assignments. right? paul rya

to vote against johnson and marjorie taylor greene says she will, thomas massie says he will and paul gosaratic help that's enough to be back in the situation where with there's no speaker again, total chaos, exactly where we were when they ousted kevin mccarthy and no better off. elizabeth: yeah. i mean, republicans are saying they're shooting their feet off here. let's please get your reaction to congresswoman greene here. she's got some points to make, she wants to be heard. watch this. >> now we have hakeem jeffries coming out and embracing mike johnson with a warm hug and a big, wet, sloppy kiss because mike johnson is giving them everything they want. and so next week i i am going to be calling this motion to vacate, absolutely calling it. i voted for mike johnson because his voting record before he became speaker was conservative. he voted against funding ukraine. he was solidly pro-life. he voted to secure the border. he voted to fight against democrats, fight against the witch hunt against president trump. but once he became speaker, he has become a man that that noun -- none of us

biden doj fbi were playing to assassinate president trump and gave the green light congressman paul gosar biden ordered the hit on trump at mar-a-lago. a hit, and assassination. these are sitting congresspeople, of course that i just quoted. they're accusing the sitting president and the fbi of trying to assassinate if former president now they're basing this on newly unsealed documents related to the 2022 search of mar-a-lago. now, among those documents with something called a law enforcement operations order which explains what agents are allowed to do and what they're allowed to bring with them. in this case where they searched mar-a-lago. what's in the deir is boilerplate language from the justice department manual about the use of force. is boilerplate. it's everywhere when the officer has a reasonable belief that the subject of such force poses an imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to the officer there are to another person the language is standard and it is directly from the departments manual. by the way, they also knew that trump was 1,000 miles away when they we

some of the republican no votes notable names include matt gaetz, andy biggs, paul gosar, marjorie taylor greene. the last two, we should note previously spoke at a white nationalist convention on, the democratic no votes include aoc, i, pramila, jaya, paul, and ilhan omar. the bill would require the department of education to offer the same protections given under the civil rights act of 1964. that act prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin, giving those protections to jewish students across the nation. in grades k through 12. i want to do i want to flip back to abortion if we can, because that is an issue that a lot of democrats are talking about today. and frankly, a lot of floridians, a lot of arizonans, and allows a lot of south dakotan because those issues bubbled up in those states today. we just heard trump's say, people are happy about abortion being left to the states. i think we have this byte. he just said it in battleground wisconsin a few minutes ago, if we could run that clip okay you don't have a ready never mind. we're a little out of order toda

it's just for congressman paul gosar and congressman thomas massie.the only three republicans who have publicly said that they will back this motion to vacate notably, there have been a number of opponents. top of that list being for president trump's saying a number of times that he supports mike johnson. he stood behind beside mike johnson at mar-a-lago a few weeks ago, and said, i stand with the speaker and the number of other conservative republicans, including many of whom are in the conservative house freedom caucus. even some who voted to oust former speaker kevin mccarthy, are saying that now is not the right time there's no clear alternative really. they just say that they want to bite their tongue. they're not thrilled with mike johnson's leadership, but they want to hold off on a rash decisions, right now, let the election in november come and then hold those leadership elections after the november elections. so as i said, at the top, marjorie taylor-greene, not much momentum, but nonetheless, she's valley to move ahead with it this week. s

paul gosar says quote justice is lost here. a republican congresswoman from new york also a republican calling this a sadly unsurprising miscarriage of justice. she had a very complete statement really blaming this on the decision to hold the trial in new york. saying that given that more than 80% of voters had rejected donald trump in the elections, that he was never going to hold a fair trial there or be able to have a fair trial there. barbara lee saying she commends the public servants doing their civic duty here. dina titans from nevada outside of las vegas saying that for the first time in our nation's history, a former president is found guilty of multiple felonies. she's saying our justice system has proved donald trump twice impeached now four times indicted, morally bankrupt individual is not above the law. so you can see members of both parties turning to their talking points here. much as we've seen the two candidates already to that. republicans saying this was never going to be a fair trial. democrats really highl

some parts symbolic, but she and her colleagues who are supportive of this, there are two others, paul gosar and thomas massie. they say that this is about getting republicans on the record, making clear who is supportive of johnson and who isn't, and sending a signal to speaker johnson that if he were to win the majority again, he wouldn't have the votes to become this speaker in their words, making him a lame duck speaker. now yesterday, jeffries address this in an interview with 60 minutes saying that democrats are willing to help kill this because they don't want to thrust the congress once again into chaos. >> as speaker johnson asked for your help, he has not and all view what traditionally be. >> let the other side work its own mess out but when that mess starts to impact the ability to do the job on behalf of the american people. then responsible thing at that moment might be for us to make clear that we will not allow the extremist that though the congress in the country into chaos and it's just good to point out at this moment that the republican conference is largely united agains

essentially to advance this resolution further and joining marjorie taylor greene, thomas massie, and paul gosar, the republicans who plan to vote to advance as we execute, expect some democrats also, they're not gonna vote to kill this because they are concerned about mike johnson's positions, ideological position, but overwhelmingly we expect republicans including the ones who voted to oust kevin mccarthy, like matt gaetz, you're from just their vote to kill this because they believe is the wrong time to move forward guys. yeah. as he said, he did it in a non election year. i don't know if he should be so self-congratula tory, but nonetheless, he's saying there's a difference. manu raju thinking you so much for that. >> and just to cnn, prosecutors in new york city will retry disgrace. hollywood producer harvey weinstein after an appeals court overturned his rape conviction during a hearing that finished this moments ago, the prosecutor was adamant that they still had a strong case and said that they want to retry it as soon as september if possible. >> cnn's jean casarez was in the courtroom.

. >> elliott, because everyone has suddenly seemed to notice and marjorie taylor greene and paul gosar who are on the very far right of the house republican conference are talking about the fact that this fbi rate, of course, was authorized because trump wouldn't give this stuff back, right? he was asked repeatedly to give it back before this rate occurs. but in this raid authorization, there's an authorization to use deadly force and trump has been also posting about this on his truth social page. can you just clear this up for us? is that people on the right are saying that this some of them are going so far as to say this was an assassination attempt my understanding is that this is pretty standard what's the deal? this is absolute nonsense. it is standard operating procedure to empower law enforcement to use deadly force as we've seen in spectacular fashion over the last five years in many of these high profile cases, law enforcement empowered to use deadly force when executing a search warrant. i wouldn't even call it a raid. it's a standard procedure when officers are appearing a

it was more than just thomas massie and paul gosar, who were, sort of, the accomplices in marjorie taylord previously he didn't want to vote to table this because, while he was frustrated with mike johnson and he didn't think a motion to vacate was right, he also didn't think it was right to dispense with this altogether. you've also got people like congressman davidson, who was one of the chief proponents of a fisa speech legislation. that drew ire for the speaker. the top line the speaker mike johnson remains speaker mike johnson. but at the same time, we'll wait to see what marjorie taylor greene does next here. just because there's a period on the end of this sentence doesn't mean she can't go on to start another one. nowhere in the rules that kevin mccarthy negotiated at the beginning of this congress does it say that you're one and done with your motion to vacate threats. and if congresswoman greene wants to continue down this path, i guess she could. but where this leaves it right now is where we expected it would be, which is that the speaker is safe, that marjorie taylor greene i

congresswoman greene and congressman thomas massie and congressman paul gosar ended up being republicansing against tabling the motion to vacate resolution. some of the test those folks have said it's because they have a rule of voting against procedural votes. and wanted an opportunity to vote on the actual resolution because it was privileged and they would vote against it. it was a pretty embarrassing developed for congressman for grain and she tried to spin it by saying republicans are on the record. you can see who is part of the unity party but i don't think she will run and try to offer another opportunity for ousting johnson anytime soon and that's the indication now. it did not go the way she had intended. also because there is not any must pass pieces of legislation coming up soon. that would be a catalyst for her having to spark this resolution before it was the government funding process and then it was fisa and then testing ukraine aid which are hot button issues that divide republicans bitterly. we don't add that until september but we had to do with government funding and
