you and i both blame paul ryan or the last two years. he failed. and we are only in this position. president trump is only in this position because paul ryan and the republican leadership failed this president. judge jeanine: and the omnibus bill preventing him from using any money for a barrier. but the president has a heart. >> he understands what's going on. he hears from the family. he sees his white house staff, those people who aren't at work. in the washington, d.c. area there are federal employees who had to go to food banks. in my community. the public and private schools are holding lunches and dinners for families affected by this. but that's what the american people saw and that's why they want the government open so these 800,000 people are --

i am talking about the departed paul ryan and his team of lackeys.his is a new breed, it looks like, of leadership. it hasn't to learn. ed: not only much to learn. they don't very much. they don't have much facts, they make comments like that, they are side and foolish and they don't represent their district well. if they do, too bad for the district. the reality is we are in a very serious time in the congress. the american public is very, very disillusioned with the congress and these types of activities won't make them feel any better about it. lou: the language she used and the responses of nancy pelosi are what you would expect from a pelosi-led congress. this shows you what kind of shape some of these districts are. these people represent the views of about 700,000 folks in their districts. those folks elected these folks. but then i think of all the country club republicans who sent paul ryan to congress. who sent all the republicans to congress who put up with paul ryan. both of these parties are in the pocket of k treat. it's disturbing to l

lou: -- the dear, departed paul ryan. this has been an unseemly, sordid, corrupt mess in that we have witnessed in the leadership to have republican capitol hill, both houses. this is -- don't you think it's, there should be a little more accountability than what we see in prospect? >> oh, gosh, where to begin with that question. [laughter] you remember that congressman devin nuÑes, who was the chairman of house intelligence, you know, he went to paul ryan and told paul ryan in the spring of 2017, we have just discovered that, indeed, the obama administration was, had put the trump campaign under surveillance. and i would like to go, i want to give you the heads up, i'm going to advise the white house -- which he did. remember, the president said that the obama administration had his campaign under surveillance -- lou: had wiretapped him. >> remember that the national media laughed, scoffed, said he has no evidence. and do you remember what paul ryan then did? he made devin nuÑes step aside for a period of nearly a year -

our colleague, who we'll be speaking to tomorrow, the fact is that the president was going after paul ryanssages. he said paul, do you know why democrats have been kicking your expletive deleted for decades? because they know a little word called loyalty. trump called ryan. why do you think nancy has held on this long? every time she opens her mouth, another republican gets elected. they stick with her. why can't you be loyal to your president, paul? and then the book has him leaving the room actually when the speaker is presenting. when paul ryan, the republican speaker, is presenting his health care bill to the republican president. >> that first reference was when paul ryan spoke out after the charlottesville incident in which trump said there were good people on both sides. one is trump expected loyalty from the speaker of the house. even though he had just praised white supremacists rallying in charlottesville. the second thing is paul ryan ultimately gave him the loyalty after heed an m ed an moed an him. and walked out of the meeting in i with paul ryan was giving the presentation.

paul ryan even said that during the campaign when he attacked judge curiel saying he couldn't possibly rule fairly on the trump university case because he was a mexican. actually, he's from indiana. so the president has done things like this before. the reaction has been very different because he has taken over the republican party and republicans have been craven and they have been cowards in standing up to this. and it's gotten worse and worse and worse. and you could have tried to -- even i was reluctant to call him

no one is going to remember paul ryan wanted to balance the budget. they're going to remember that paul ryan basically behaved like a junior manager to trump golf course when it came to what donald trump wanted in the house of representatives for two years. and basically ended up, because of that decision, lost the majority. because of that decision to accommodate trump on every factor, and to pretend that he wasn't constitutionally obligated to be the leader of a co-equal branch of government, that he abdicated that responsibility and that position. that's going to be the legacy sadly. >> and, rick, i've also heard it said just in the last 24 hours that for mcconnell, this 53/47 advantage may not feel like it at all. watch there be a thing made up of a kind of coalition of west of the mississippi or even rocky mountain republicans. some of them are up in two years. some of them looking at you, mitt romney, aren't, who start to do some wavering as we're already seeing on the shutdown. >> that's exactly correct, brian. you know, 2018 was the good year

he associated himself with paul ryan in that failed effort. he's not going to have much of a voice other than what, of course, the left wing gives him but that's what they do with rinos. over and over and over again. we will take that up, much more right after this quick break. eds rollins wited rollins with . stay with us. i can't tell you who i am or what i witnessed, but i can tell you liberty mutual customized my car insurance so i only pay for what i need. oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no... only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ comcast business built the nation's largest gig-speed network. then went beyond. beyond chasing down network problems. to knowing when and where there's an issue. beyond network complexity. to a zero-touch, one-box world. optimizing performance and budget. beyond having questions. to getting answers.

however, paul ryan, when paul ryan became speaker of the house, as we're seeing from nancy pelosi, that a powerful job. the speaker of the house is one of the royals of washington, who really has a lot of say as to what goes on in this city. for him to be as meek and acquiesce ent as he was to trump when he was speaker just has always absolutely floored me. i've never understood it. it's as if he never understood the job and understood not just the responsibilities but the powers of the job. >> you know, it hard to believe that he holds the same position that nancy pelosi holds today. it's hard to believe he ran against mitt romney. susan del percio, weak, meek. what i don't understand is he was speaker of the house. what part of the story are we missing where he said, excuse me, mr. president, i'm going to make your life miserable, i'm going to stop everything that you wanted. where is the punching back that is required in a leadership position like that, especially when confronted with someone who wants to push norms and moral values of our country. it's clear paul ryan had an opportu

he couldn't remember paul ryan. he couldn't remember reince priebus. he couldn't remember tons of other leaders of the republican party. this is not new. you know, steve king has been a white nationalist for years. he has said white nationalist things. they have heard about them. they have dismissed these statements in the past. this newfound religion of the republican party, which is let's condemn white nationalist talk but let's not stop white nationalist policies, does not impress me at all. so the idea that mccarthy can't really remember and says this isn't us, this is you. this is the republican party. if you have someone like that who is in your party who has felt comfortable behaving in this way for ten years and you have several other people that have the same belief system, they just know how to say it with sugar on top, that is a reflection of your party. and until you make those fundamental changes in what you accept ideologically and policywise, censuring him, moving him from committees, none of that really matters. >> senator mccaskill, ev

. >> now paul ryan.zes paul ryan trump said, quote, paul told me in the strongest of terms that, please sign this and if you will sign this, we will get that you wall, which is desperately needed by our country, humanitarian crisis, trafficking, drugs, criminals, gangs so you know we need the wall and then he went lame duck. the president went on to say and once he went lame duck, it was just really an exercise of waving to people and the power was gone -- >> all right, all right, enough. jackie, i apologize, i should have cut that read off earlier because it was such nonsense. the president of the united states has decided the new strategy is not to blame nancy pelosi or chuck schumer, it's to blame paul ryan because we all know that the president has deferred to paul ryan over the years. >> what better foil to blame than someone who no longer works for him and is out of these negotiations completely. but you have this committee of 17 different people trying to work together to build a wall and you're n

in one excerpt obtained by the washington post sims described what happened when paul ryan criticizedmp. the book claims that trump watched on television increasingly angry and yelled for an assistant to get ryan on the phone. paul, do you know why democrats have been kicking your blank for decades? because they know a little word called loyalty, trump told ryan. why do you think nancy has held on this long? have you seen her? she's a disaster. every time he opens her mouth another republican gets elected. but they stick with her. why can't you be loyal to your president, paul. >> the president slammed ryan for distancing himself from president in the aftermath affidavit access hollywood tape. i remember being in wisconsin and your own people were booing you. you were out this dying hike a dog, paul, like a dog. what did i do? i saved your blank. in another excerpt obtain bid "the new york times," sims described sara sanders explaining to the president that little could be done about a journalist he did not care for when trump asked why the person could not be, quote, suspended. >>> l

you know how highly i regard paul ryan. he's a from friend of mine, i have a great deal of respect for him, but maybe remind him the next time he tells you that, it's the congress that actually spends the money. if the congress had adopted the president's budgets over the last two years, we would not have the deficit that we have now, not have the debt that we have now and we'd actually be on a glide path to balancing the budget, which is what our first budget did. when the congress ignores the president of the united states and decides to spend more money, it puts presidents in a difficult situation. do you veto it and shut the government down or do you actually just sign the bills? congress spends money. again, we go back to the earlier comment about the current shutdown. it takes two to tango in this town. there's the hill and there's the white house. and right now, congress is of a mind, oftentimes, to spend more money. >> well, all i will say is republicans controlled the house, the senate, and the white house for two

and told paul ryan in the spring of 2017, we have just discovered that indeed the obama administration the trump campaign under surveillance. and i would like to go -- i want to give you the head's up. i'm going to advise the white house, which he did. remember the president said that the obama administration had his campaign under surveillance. remember that the national media laughed, scoffed, said he has no evidence, and do you remember what priep the paul ryan then d? he made devin nunes step aside for a period of nearly a year for an ethics investigation for something that he had been cleared with him before he did it. now, you know, that to me says everything you need to know. a congressional subpoena, you know, they finally issue a subpoena to rosenstein -- lou: it's part of what we need to know, cleta. the rest of what we need to know, when you look at what ryan and the republican leadership is culpable of and for, and then you look at what has happened in our justice department, not a single person has been held to account, departed, fired, resigned, retired, reassigned. congr

, in the aftermath of the way trump responded to the charlotteville incidents, that paul ryan was not there backing him up. trump laid into him. in this account, i do think you're right to see trump books, right to see trump supporters. it seems to tell a story of an unvarn i should, behind-the-scenes look dhaurg first year or so of the trump presidency inside that west wing. >> i can't wait. what the heck is going on with rudy giuliani? he is now suggesting there are tapes that prove the president's innocence, but then he denies that there are tapes? >>> also, i'm going to speak live with a priest who says the chaperones get some blame here in the confrontation that started this viral video. >>> president trump's proposal gives -- with expedia, i saved when i added a hotel to our flight. so even when she grows up, she'll never outgrow the memory of our adventure. unlock savings when you add select hotels to your existing trip. only with expedia. select hotels to your existing trip. t-mobile knows dancing is better when you include a partner. singing is better when you include a f

when the president paraded paul ryan from distances himself over the "access hollywood" video. you remember this, don't you? >> when you're a star, they let you do it. you can do anything you want. >> listen to this excerpt recorded by the washington post. quote, i remember being in wisconsin and your own people were booing. you were out there dying like a dog, paul. like a dog. and what did i do? i saved you. john kelly telling him this is the worst, expletive job i've ever had. people apparently think i care when they write that i might be fired. if that ever happened it would be the best day i had since i walked into this place. hours away with no end in sight. the state department had to cancel an international conference on border security due to the shutdown over, wait for it. that is the president's demand for a wall. a wall that won't solve his manufactured crisis at the border. and those senate votes on thursday, the ones that are pretty much doomed to fail, they're not fooling anyone. the 800,000 government workers are about to miss another paycheck. one more example

paul ryan made it clear that he did not believe in the wall. i do not believe mcconnell was strongly for it either. they passed the tax bill last year under reconciliation. they could have given the president his money this year under reconciliation, but they wouldn't do it. and that is a reason why we're having this problem right now. i hope that there's a solution, but it doesn't look like there's going to be a solution any time soon. and i believe the president is not going to be able to put this wall up, but i do blame the republican party for this problem. >> peter, i couldn't agree with you more because last year when we actually had the schumer shutdown, we had exactly what we needed to actually get good behavior back. and that means is that we could have sfundfunded our military fe full year and then required the senate to actually have a month to do the discretionary spending or else the bca would have actually made their mandatory cut. then what you're doing is rewarding good behavior. the preliminary power of congress is that budget

wall which is a fitting end to paul ryan's career. pent all year loyally serving trump and ignoring his many abuses of power. even openly admitting he doesn't pay attention to trump scandals. >> yesterday he said that, speaking of the stormy daniels story, that he said the allegations of hush money are a big deal. i guess the first question is, do you agree with that characterization? the other -- >> i haven't put a second of thought into this. it's just not on my radar screen. >> this must bother you, access hollywood, stormy daniels, karen mcdougal, at a certain point, it must be embarrassing. >> well, look, i didn't even read the article. >> is it appropriate, in your view, for the white house to invoke executive privilege -- >> no. >> and deny -- >> i'm not familiar with exactly what happened yesterday. i've been a little busy with some other tasks. >> seth: man, paul ryan might be a bad house speaker but he'd be a great roommate. "hey paul, my friends are coming over to watch the ufc fight. and then my punk band's going to practic

paul ryan. >> there are many scenes between the president and the speaker of the house.omes up to the white house with mike pence, the vice president, to explain how tax reform is going to work in all of its wonderful detail. this does not interest the president very much and after the conversations gone on for a while, he literally gets up while paul ryan is in middescription and wonders out of the oval office and down the hallway into a side room where one can hear the television being switched on and eventually mike pence gets up, goes down the hall, brings the president back and they finish the conversation. there are a number of stories like that about paul ryan and donald trump. >> how about john kelly? >> john kelly came in and initially the author cliff simms felt the general would impose discipline and bring military rigor to the operation and indeed he does, the author also says, i wonder how long this can last. it doesn't and shortly before john kelly's own departure, one of the last things he does, some months before, but one of the things he does is put an e

this was paul ryan's congressional district.d they are saying bring the business here, but on the other hand, a lot of the people are saying i have a lot of family members who were hoping to get in on these jobs and in on a more kind of factory assembly line job. those don't seem to be coming like they thought they once were. >> but you got a statement as i understand it that is significant. it seems to indicate that they still believe that 13,000 jobs are coming to this location. is that right? >> it is. i got a statement not only from the county but from foxconn that they remain commit today the 13,000 jobs. part of it is -- that is what part of talking to people down there is about is you are getting conflicting reports from the outlets in japan talking to a ticompany on the business sid we are getting different news here in wisconsin. part of it is the uncertainty that people are dealing with. what is going to happen? we are hearing two sides kind of. foxconn and the county reiterated that 13,000 jobs should be coming to the

but paul ryan as speaker used none of his power in relation to this president. so this president two years in has no idea what the powers of the speakership are. >> and think how frustrated donald trump has been just by the constraints he already faces. that he has to at least pretend to abide by the laws of the land, right. that he's in some respects checked by the supreme court. he's had these very minor constraints on what he imagined was a kind of regal authority, and it's driven him bonkers. and so now he's going to have both nonstop investigations and an inability to really get anything substantive done unless he is able to negotiate with nancy pelosi, who despite his ridiculous reputation as a master negotiator, he has nothing on her. he has no experience commensurate with hers. >> tomorrow where do you intend to begin with her? >> i think obviously we have to start with the situation we have now. the shutdown. because the impasse is incomplete. nancy pelosi said no money, zero, you get nothing for the wall. so that is the ultimate impasse, and now you ha

their congressional delegation, representative brian style elected to replace his onetime boss, paul ryan served on the wisconsin -- university of wisconsin board of regents. before that, he was an attorney who worked in corporate law. michigan elected for new numbers of congress, all democrats. andy levin succeeded his father, sander levin, in the ninth district. thelevin previously owned clean energy firm and worked on energy issues in the administration of former -- of a former michigan governor. rashida tlaib is the first palestinian-american woman and the first of two muslim women elected to congress. she previously served in the state house. congresswoman alyssa foxconn of michigan's eighth district served a variety of roles in the pentagon during the obama administration, culminating as acting defense secretary first -- secretary for international security affairs. she previously had jobs in the cia and state department. haley stevens started her career working for the obama administration's auto industry bailout. she worked on ways for small and midsize manufacturers to adopt digi

kennedy: paul ryan was the worst.ughter] having said that, who do you like better, paul ryan or nancy pelosi? >> uh -- well, john boehner probably. but, again, i voted against him three times. [laughter] kennedy: good for you. your job, in many ways your job is great, there's a lot of pomp and circumstance. there are, you know, secret perks. you guys have your own gym and recording studio, that's really fun. other than that, kind of sucks, doesn't it? >> kennedy, i've never been to the gym, can you tell? [laughter] >> they must be using the muscular lens, because you look quite fit from here. chad pergram says it gets worse before it gets better, do you agree? >> oh, i agree. look, if you wanted to do something now, you could vote to fund the essential employees -- the air traffic controllers, tsa employees and the prison guards -- and then the non-essential, for instance, who aren't working but are going without pay, then you could negotiate over that. but i think it's wrong really to have them coming to work without

candidates before the primary similar to the program developed by the then young kevin mccarthy paul ryan and the eric cantor will reach benchmarks for fund raising, campaign strategy data and the budget and will consist of top candidates in the country and support them with direct contributions as well as bundling efforts through washington and around the country got unlike the young guns program this will be for women and it wil there will be - primary, early dollars. in addition to the financials of, we will focus on candidate development and mentor should then also work to elevate the profiles of these candidates to ensure they earned media coverage something that's often been overlooked for republican women candidates and as we build out this robust program might want to see an enormous thank you to all of you that have stepped up. my initial pie-in-the-sky goal for this event but i thought was going to be impossible was to raise $100,000. in just two weeks with your support, we blew past th past tr and i'm pleased to announce today we have raised over $250,000 shattering the goals.

and paul ryan understands washington. he understands politics. he understands governance.his is totally opposite of what we have seen. you have republicans quietly talking about this president is crazy. they say this quietly, but yet when they are with him, they standby him because they know if they are seen going against him, they will be brought down by their constituency who supports this president. so there is a problem here. when do you look at the issue of humanity. not politics, but humanity there's a lot at play right now. and this book is just yet again revealing it's a whistleblowing book, it sounds like. it's putting into paperback or hard cover. >> can we look at the actual safety of the shutdown. you're a former fbi agent. fbi agents are warning that the shutdown is putting national security at risk. that includes operations against one of the president's favorite targets, ms-13. if the shutdown doesn't end soon, how bad could it get? >> it's already bad. there was a stunning announcement come iing out and saying this shutdown is harming u.s. national security

it's easy to blame paul ryan, he's not in office any more. is trump really setting up that foil in case this doesn't go out he wants. >> i'm sorry, congressman. we're very out of time. i will get your wonderful opinion in the commercial break and put it on twitter, i promise. >>> ahead the president attacked her looks, he called her -- her husband called president trump a sniffling coward, so why did president trump interview heidi cruz for a job? and looking to buy life insurance on a fixed budget, remember the three p's. what are the three p's? the three p's of life insurance on a fixed budget are price, price, and price. a price you can afford, a price that can't increase, and a price that fits your budget. i'm 65 and take medications. what's my price? you can get coverage for $9.95 a month. i just turned 80. what's my price? $9.95 a month for you, too. if you're age 50 to 85, call now about the number one most popular whole life insurance plan available through the colonial penn program. it has an affordable rate starting at $9.95 a month

paul ryan would fold like a cheap suit. nancy pelosi will eat her caucus. >> jason: that's why they've already dropped articles of impeachment. it didn't even take an hour. >> willie gomer dropped articles of impeachment on the first day in 2011. you know this. you were there. >> paul ryan led a house caucus that did an amazing job for the last two years. >> you could the economy, the standing across the world, national security, we are back. this trump economy is on fire and it's going to stay. >> jason: >> i looked at my stk portfolio today, not good. >> where were the issues today about nancy pelosi taking over the gavel in the house and the dow dropping 660 points? they still want to blame it on the president. >> it has nothing to do with the shutdown. come on. >> if the president talking about -- >> they don't know -- >> going into afghanistan to stop terrorism. >> the markets dropped because nancy pelosi took control of the house -- >> jason: hold on. serious question, chris. house democrats passed a bill tonight with

it's a transformation when paul ryan, not exactly on board with the president's agenda.not somebody who in agreement with a lot of policy positions that this president had. but worked with us on certain things and worked against us on others i speak of the house. he's not going to have a democrat house to have to do it. he's when you have a bigger majority in the united states senate. i think that's an opportunity to get more people in his administration. chuck schumer, chuck is really done america disservice because he is not allowed, to the process who are waiting senate for those. chuck schumer, one person, standing away of the american government, working better, faster, more efficiently and in a way at this president wants because he can't have his people in the shops which allow the career, deep state folks to have much more power and they should have. they are not in those jobs. we are going to continue to talk about his successes, continue to talk about his agenda for the american people. all americans and hope that he puts a team around himself inside the white

mitch mcconnell particularly, a little more so than paul ryan, said no. said this is a bullshit issue, don't want to be involved with this. people who work for obama who knew about this high up in his foreign policy/national security team were astounded. they were astounded that they could not get a leader of the u.s. senate to join them in speaking out about this. and having a united front. and one reason they couldn't to that was because donald trump was out there saying this isn't happening. this is nothing. this is a hoax. so that would mean he would have to be on the different side than his, than the nominee of his party. and they went through paul ryan, ryan tried to convince mcconnell to do something, but at the end of the day mcconnell wouldn't, and ryan wouldn't do anything on his own. so, i mean, this to me is astounding. and i don't think they're doing this because they're on the payroll of the russians, but just for political purposes they would not come together, and it says a lot about where we are as a nation at this point. because i keep c

they reached out, the senate majority leader and paul ryan, this is underway. the russians are attacking us. we would like to have a bipartisan response publicly. we try to figure out how we are going to respond. mitch mcconnell, a little more so than paul ryan, this is a bullshit issue we don't want to be involved with. people who works for obama who knew about this, i respond, policy, national security team, where astounded. they were astounded that they could not get the leader of the u.s. senate to join them in speaking out and having a united front is one reason they couldn't do that was donald trump was out there saying this isn't happening, this is nothing, this is a hoax which that would mean he would have to be on a different side, the nominee of his party. they went through paul ryan who tried to convince mitch mcconnell to do something but at the end of the he wouldn't and ryan wouldn't do anything on his own. this to me is astounding. i don't think they are doing this because they are on the payroll of the russians but just for political purposes th

paul lice polls better than paul ryan. >> our political reporter. we'll throw this to you. in this business, right, and there is a -- there is a meme with political journalists, hillary was emails. everyone felt compelled to weigh in and have a bite and get a take in some way. with elizabeth warren, it's the dna situation which is -- honestly not an important thing. >> right. >> let's be honest. it's not important. but it's a thing, right. now whole idea of her being likeable. she's more mom-ly. i'm not sure where that came from. >> she's a dynamic speaker. that's a contrast with her and hillary clinton. she was much more dynamic than hillary clinton. when she would campaign for hillary clinton, you could feel the different energy. >> correct. >> i've got to take a different tax and say that i see on twitter and see a lot of us talking about why is everybody talking about so and so candidate's personality? why can't we talk about their issue positions and where they want to lead the country? that's naive. i mean, a political candidate quickly went for president, it's not ju

interviewed by congress, and you know, , unfortunately, people didn't see it because the republicans with paul ryan unfortunately they didn't put him out there. but when he said was either he's a bad liar or his grossly incompetent. unfortunately, people didn't say it but you can read the transcript. [inaudible] >> what? [inaudible] >> you know how i feel. okay. we will see you in -- what? [inaudible] i'm not looking -- this is a simple cup you shouldn't have to pick now, i have the absolute legal right to call it, but i'm not looking to do that because this is too simple. the democrats should say we want border security, we have to build a a wall otherwise you cannot border security and we should get on with our lives. the democrats are stopping us, and they're stopping a lot of great people from getting paid. all they have to do is say, we want border security. that automatically means a wall or a barrier. thank you. i'll see you in new orleans. [inaudible] [background sounds] >> over 100 new members join either the house or the senate of the 116th congress. indiana voters elected republican mike

the republicans with paul ryan unfortunately they did not of them out there. what he said, either he's a bad liar or he's grossly incompetent. you can read the transcript.
