pelosi: thank you very much. it's really hard to explain to anyone why they think it's a good idea to reject this agreement. because it is an agreement that says that iran would not have a nuclear weapon for a number of years, possibly ever. in terms of the language of the agreement. without the agreement, iran was on a path to having a nuclear weapon in one or two years. so to those who keep saying this is important for to us stop them from getting a weapon way down the road, you have just given them license to go forward in a year or two. making the world a more nuclear place, making activity desired by others in the region. very, very sad. we take an oath to protect and defend. that is our first responsibility. i do not think the president is honoring that oath. by what he did. i'm glad that we're joined by our colleagues who spoke. others who have been working on this issue. congresswoman barbara lee, congressman john yarmuth. and congressman peter welch are with us. and other members who have been saying tha

pelosi if that's what happens, but i would say that outside nancy pelosi's ability to be a prolificer, some of the successes i think we may see in these midterm election races are not necessarily due to nancy pelosi but in spite of her. the fact we are trying to match individual candidates with sort of the personality of their individual districts. i think that the ability to run against washington as we saw with conor lamb in pennsylvania. someone who said he would not vote for nancy pelosi if he was elected. shows it's not about necessarily nancy pelosi's ability to have a cohesive message but rather democrats to speak directly to the needs of their individual constituencies. ashley: capri, pelosi survived that challenge with tim ryan of ohio. could she survive another challenge? >> only time will tell on that one depending on whether or not if they win the house, how big that margin of victory is and who the challenger is. it's no secret tim ryan is my member of congress, i supported him in his challenge against nancy pelosi, but it's not just tim, but a number of younger members

it seems like a cosmic joke to me, pelosi. and you bring up a really good point because if you're going to be in power for that long it seems like you have to have something. you have to have either charisma or intelligence or some sort of eq, the ability to read people and empathize with them. she seems to have none of that, and no one admits to liking her, they're all kind of scared of her, and the only thing they'll say positively is that she's able to raise money but democrat s compared to republican s have had a really hard time raising money since president trump got into office, so why, you know, and i don't think impeachment is the thing to do her in. i think it's the fact that she's so unlikeable and there are all of these younger freshman house members who are like yeah, i wouldn't vote for her and i'm going to win again saying i won't. >> she'll destroy them. that's what she's got going for her. she is a constant reminder to me of how screwed up our political system is. when you look at her, you know everybody on th

i think nancy pelosi is smart how she approached this.issa: she has a lot in her own party, talk about a double standard. annika, a lot of people don't want to campaign with her and don't want her there because she does represent the old guard and being out of touch and just things, that's from democrats that want her money, but don't necessarily want her standing next to themselves, and maybe fear that if you're saying you elect democrats, she's going to be speaker of the house, that may not be a winning message for democrats. >> right, i don't think that is. telling people they are afraid to challenge her leadership. she's the one going to keep the party diverse, as an older white woman, she's not bringing that diversity that democrats would like to present themselves as the party of being, and ultimately they're afraid to challenge her because she does bring in so much money and that is a challenge of the past. melissa: joel, is there anyone else you think would be great also, if you are a fan of hers, who do you think is the person th

miss pelosi, we were prepared.er her comments secretary of state mike pompeo was appearing before a senate panel. democrat senator tom udall used the occasion to imply president trump would benefit personally from his foreign policy. pompeo barely suppressing his anger called the implication scurrilous. so it was. even with such a serious subject the left will try to drag our president through the dirt. no matter what. seems like the democrats want to go back to the obama foreign policy of apologize and retreat. is that what nancy pelosi wants? does she think that is her path to the speaker's role again? like her crumbs comment, miss pelosi has misread voters. she must believe that all of america is like the coastal elites she represents in san francisco. it's not. america surely wants an economy that grows and foreign policy that puts america first. a president who is tough and a president who knows how to negotiate. maybe that's why his approval rating, president trump's rate something now at its best level in a

schumer: thank you, leader pelosi. and want to thank you and all my colleagues for their leadership. happy monday to one and all. now, president trump campaigned as a populist. he promised to drain the swamp and clean up washington. democrats welcomed this promise when he made it. all of us here today have been working for years to promote ideas and legislation that would loosen the grip of special interests on so many arms of the federal government. but president trump, when it comes to draining the swamp, has been a complete and total disappointment. president trump has embraced the most egregious establishment republican norms, and appointed the most conflict of interest-ridden cabinet in my lifetime. the swamp has never been more foul or more fetted than under this president. every day it seems there's a new story about the swamp cabinet. just look at the swampy actions that finally forced out h.h.s. secretary tom price. e.p.a. administrator scott pruitt's almost daily scream of corruption. or o.m.b.'s mick mulvane

i mean, nancy pelosi said yesterday -- nancy pelosi said yesterday she wants to end the tax cuts andid, tell me, is that good politics? it's not about politics. but think about that from a political standpoint. i don't think her party was too happy. but that's her thought. that's what they want to do. they want to raise your taxes, end your tax cuts. they want open borders where everyone flies into our country, that's not happening. so this week you nominated an incredible slate of republican candidates, many of whom i know. and you have to work every day between now and november to elect four republicans so we continue to make america great again. and by the way, this is the first for indiana,2020, the slogan is keep america great! keep america great! because we are doing so well that in another two years when we start the heavy campaign, make america great again wouldn't work out too well. it's going to be keep america great because that's exactly where we are headed. but don't tell anybody. i don't want anybody to know. but i do like that. you know what i paid for that slogan? a l

does that include nancy pelosi and other leadership? guest: i allow the public to make decisions about what others will do and let others tell you what they will do. it is clear that are colleagues who question the president's fitness to be in all -- in office, but do not want to do anything about it. my suspicion is as the woman some builds, we will see more of those wanting to see impeachment. if you listen to talking heads on various talk shows, they will talk about everything but the word impeachment. they seem to contort themselves into a position that the senate and house may have do something. they will not say what the something is. there seems to be in a version of uttering the word impeachment. it is what the constitution says. they had a person in mind when they said no person would be beyond justice. host: what is a specific offense the president has done that qualifies for impeachment? dishonesty, his ability to contort and misconstrue. that can be impeachable because of the harm it imposes upon society. the impeachment art

that was on thing john ossof against nancy pelosi. >> they're running against nancy pelosi and it's workingas your party's leader. >> the latest fox poll has her approval rating 51% unfavorable. that explains why republicans will run against her. >> shepard: pelosi, an incredible fund raiser and has been for decades. >> no question about that her campaign operations says she raised $16.1 million in the first quarter of this year. some of her rank and file members, conor lamb from pennsylvania and seth molten of massachusetts have called for change. molten telling the "boston globe," there's a strong desire for new leadership in washington, and new leadership in the democratic party. she won a special election in 1987. many of her colleagues say it's time for a new voice and new ideas. shep? >> shepard: thanks, mike emanuel. a show down over trade. the u.s. treasury and commerce secretaries are in china looking to get some concessions to reduce our china trade deficit. the chinese are warning, don't expect much, america. their message and how it matters for our money next. >> shepard: former

what is your take on nancy pelosi's comment there?sten, i don't know what she's trying to do there. i mean maybe it's her whine and cheese constituency up in san francisco the elitist. i'm proud of what the president is doing and i'm also proud he's endorsed me to be the next governor of this state because he knows that i will work with him on getting the border wall built, on ending sanctuary state , and frankly, on lowering taxes and turning the state around and the whine and cheese brigade that nancy pelosi appeals to is a definite tiny piece of this state. this state, elizabeth, you know it. this is composed of working people who are having a really tough go of it under the constant pressure that's put on by the gas tax, by the incredible spending and the cost of living in sacramento. liz: and to your point, i mean, even arnold schwarzenegger couldn't deal with sacramento it was tough to get things done. to your point immigrants who stood in line and got in here the right way and minorities say they don't like the sanctuary polici

nancy pelosi.ut she kind of stumbled and fumbled her way through a primary town hall and was talked about because of her infamous crumbs remark. speak out when the bill was passed to give my employees a bonus and a 5% pay increase which they appreciated very much. after that, they reduced withholding from their paychecks which turned into a noticeable increase in income. it certainly was not crumbs to them. >> let me congratulate you and commend you because you are a rarity. only a small percentage of businesses share their tax advantage with their employees. >> laura: frank, it was a flop not only in the ratings but substantively last night for pelosi. she was bombarded with questions and comments from people who didn't share her outlook on a variety of issues including russia, and even the age of the democratic leadership. how do things stand today? >> i have been tracking this on a weekly basis going back a year and a half and these are the best members of the g.o.p. has had in the last year. on

was a very clever way that he brought in nancy pelosi. he is not a nancy pelosi follower. host: huffington post said that the house minority leader from san francisco has consistently been one of the gop's targets and featured in roughly one third of television ads. , if theyt only that say she gets elected they will support her. that is fine. do what they have to do to elect their new leader. if they don't regain house, nancy pelosi will step down. if they do regain control by whatever margin it is, conceivably she made see that as time to take her victory lap or she could fight on in serve another term. i think it's all depends on the numbers and what kind of victory, if there is a victory that the democrats get. -- host: among those ads is rick scott running against bill nelson. here is one of his ads. >> i do not think he is a role independent voice. >> that is what is wrong with our broken congress. .verybody is a partyline voter bill nelson is one of those. >> he no longer thinks and acts independently. bill nelsonor before. i totally think it is time for somebody ne

. >>> nancy pelosi was in san francisco to drum up support for a local initiative on the june ballot.lear she's looking to a larger goal in november. even while speaking in support of a san francisco ballot initiative that would raise money for teacher salaries, nancy pelosi has her eye firmly fixed on the all important mid- term elections. >> there is no question that we are energized across the country. people see the urgency, the importance of the election. they want to take responsibility and that gives us opportunity. >> an opportunity pelosi says to regain control of the house of representatives and perhaps the senate and a chance the congress woman says to act as a system of checks and balances against a president whose agenda and basic behavior she often disagrees with refer on any issue you can name, they see a difference between what republicans are advocating and what democrats are proposing. we think they're giving the public a raw deal. we have a better deal, better jobs, better pay, better future. >> pelosi believes she's the one to lead the party if there is a shift in

you heard nancy pelosi the other day like trying to find all sorts of reasons why they should be able to stay. these are stone cold killers. vicious killers. and and when you hear families like that and key families. these are incredible families where they lost their daughters. had you some other people in the room, sons this should never happen, brian. brian: you have a few elements with immigration. the problem at the border how dispoingtedded are you overaugust -- many miles of wall making it very brand new. essentially making it brand new -- border down over 40% and a great economy. probably the best economy the country has ever had. so people come across. we are going to get the rest there is a lot of appreciate on the democrats to get it approved, frankly. and also to change the immigration laws to toughen them up a lot. brian: there is some legislation moving through so-called moderates in the house. gets daca out there and immigration going. it's not coming from leadership. have you, mr. president, been watching this take shape? where do you stand? >> actually have four diffe
