he was there for four years, two of them with a republican congress, he got a quarter of the wall built in mexico has not given us their first peso. we paid for all of it. and only for a quarter of it. when you watch illegal immigration pouring over the southern border, do not wonder whose fault it is. it is his. it is his fault because he never changed one immigration law in the two years that he had republican control of congress.

republicans in congress voted to overturn the plan. at the same time, think about this. they all support at the paycheck protection program. remember ppp? it was designed to help business owners who lost money because of the pandemic. it was a worthy program. some of the same elected republicans, members of congress who strongly opposed giving relief to students got hundreds of thousands of dollars themselves. members of congress. because of the businesses they were able to keep open. several members of congress got over a million dollars. all those loans are forgiven. how much did that program cost? $760 billion. my programs too expensive. $360 billion more than i proposed in my student debt relief program. i was trying to provide students with $10,000 to $20,000 of relief by comparison. the average amount forgiven was $70,000. a kid making $60,000 trying to pay back his bills. asking for $10,000 in relief. come on. the hypocrisy is stunning. you can't have a family making $75,000 a year but you can help a millionaire get your debt forgiven? my program would not only ha

other republicans are increasingly dominating the activity that is occurring amongst the house republican congress. that is the reason why there was a censure resolution that was brought to the floor last week and it failed and allegedly there were 20 house republicans who stood on principle and then what happened? the puppet master in chief their supreme leader the former tourist impeach president of the united states of america said that those 20 republicans who stood on principle and voted to table to censure the resolution last week should be primary. immediately, immediately extreme other republicans fell in line and censured adam schiff for no good reason. all adam schiff has done this champion the constitution to defend democracy fight for freedom and in terms of the statement that will occur later and today i look forward to being part of the conversation that will occur with the four legislative leaders in welcoming prime minister modi to the florida house of representatives.

it's the republican congress who gets things done. this is the message for him. not so much what in detail he negotiated there, because that in the eyes of many republicans, specifically the extreme right, republicans in his congress. wasn't that great and the democrats will do the same thing. say, hey, we didn't give too much away. we still have major investments coming into society in onto our economy. yes, we have to cut back a little bit non defense spending, but okay, there's worse in life. so this will happen at overall i think all americans and more than just americans should be happy that this is done the a done deal. why? because the senate is expected is really expected to greenlight this deal, vote on the deal tomorrow on thursday, and half of the votes. to get this over with me stuff, i just want to pick up on what you something you said that if we look at the results, we see that more democrats voted for these, then republicans in the house. that's solely going to be a sole point for many and potentially heat more pressure on the house. be could kevi

constantly underestimated by the mainstream media, week after week, since the start of this republican congress, but week after week, day after day, house republicans will work tirelessly for you, the american people. we will continue to provide policy solutions and successfully communicate around these critical issues to strengthen our economy. and we won this public narrative with the support of the american people. between president biden and speaker mccarthy, house republicans one from start to finish. the passage of this legislation is a testament to house republicans delivering on our commitment to an america an economy that is stronger it i look for to the senate passing this bill and i think speaker mccarthy and the entire conference for their teamwork and leadership to deliver this result. i am now honored to turn it over to one of our chief vote counters, our chief deputy whip, and i want to think our whip for their incredible work. my good friend from pennsylvania. >> we have to remember where we were when we started. everybody said that the democrats would not negotiate, that biden

for five months, governor mccarthy and house republicans have given us nothing but chaos. congress open with republicans wasting nearly a week because they could not pick a speaker. 15 votes, almost five entire days. during that time, kevin mccarthy was making secret deals to secure power. come to find out, he made some shady backroom agreements that were not even written down on paper. we still don't know exactly what was agreed to in those meetings, but now we have a little bit of an idea. in his policy to push through extremist radical bills that were demanded by the most extreme members of the republican congress, so here we are, five months later, and what have house republicans accomplished? they have enacted five laws. by the way, when democrats were in charge and donald trump of all people was president, we enacted 21 laws. kevin mccarthy gave away the game last week. he said the debt ceiling bill was their biggest accomplishment to date. let me repeat that -- their biggest achievement so far is ending a crisis that they created. what an achievement. holding the economy hos

the so-called moderate house republicans in new york at the very beginning of this congress voted to criminalize abortion care. these so-called moderate republicans in new york were individuals who voted to inflict draconian cuts on everyday americans that in some cases were north of 20%, cut medicaid, cut nutrition assistance, cut education, cut veterans' benefits, and cut a variety of different programs that are designed to benefit the health, the safety, and the economic well-being of the american people. and these so-called moderate republicans, as soon as donald trump threatent to primary -- threaten to primary them after they supposedly took a vote of principle in supporting the efforts to table the frad lent censure -- fraudulent censure resolution that was brought last week, reversed course and voted with the extreme maga republicans on that ridiculous censure resolution yesterday. so there's going to be a lot of material that the voters in these districts are going to have to consider over the next 12 to 15 months as to whether these individuals in new york are actually refle

congress. the republicans will not let that happen. take that and turn it into a campaign issue in the fall. >> all right. we'll have to stay tuned and see what happens there. you know, michael, also want to ask you about the other major ruling that came out today. the supreme court choosing to side with a web designer in colorado who basically refused to create websites celebrating same marriages because she claims that it goes against her religious beliefs. you know, how do you expect this to potentially impact the political outlook for both democrats and republicans. >> for 17 years, i was on the u.s. commission civil rights and for 15 of those republican colleagues never wanted to touch the issue of lgbtq rights at all. it wasn't until we were able to get more people. a majority of the commission that we had were able to start dealing with that issue. this is something that has it's either horribly bad. we're just that bad. it is in that the idea that they're saying. imputed in this decision is that there's a lesser standard for lg

he had a republican congress and couldn't get it done. said he was going to balance the budget in four years. he left with the biggest deficit of any president in american history. said he was going to retire the national debt in eight years. he added $8 trillion to the national debt in four years. >>> let's bring in our panel. is chris christie trying this radical honesty approach? what's the purpose of the approach his taking? >> everything he's put out there, from a fund-raising standpoint, get me to the 40,000 donors and status in the poll. i looked at chris christie getting into this. he is the face for a super pac of anybody but trump. him stepping up, is reminding other candidates that they don't have to play in the sand box. there's a drafting aspect of this. what's being lost is while the other candidates are drafting behind christie, they're organizers. in iowa and new hampshire, if you have organization, you can win. >> is he following suit? >> it remains to be seen. donald trump is a front-runner in this race. if you make an a

republicans in congress voted to overturn the plan. everyone, didn't have any republican votes for this plan. the same time, think about this. we all supported the paycheck protection program. remember that? ppp. you know, which was designed to help business owners that lost money because of pandemic. it was a worthy program. let's be clear. some of the same elected republicans, members of congress that strongly opposed giving relief to students got hundreds of thousands of dollars themselves in relief. members of congress. because of the businesses that they kept open. several members of congress got over a million dollars, all those loans were forgiven. you know how much that program cost? $760 billion. my program is too expensive? $360 billion more than i proposed in my students debt relief program. i was trying to provide students with 10 to 20,000 of relief by comparison, the average amount of forgiven in the ppp loan program, average amount forgiven was $70,000. now a kid making 60,000 trying to pay back his bills, asking for $10,

unfortunately, our maga republicans in congress are trying to undo all the progress we've made.undantly clear when the first bill they passed, this new congress -- while they were holding the country hostage over the debt limit -- was to repeal the climate provisions of the inflation reduction act and replace them with handouts to the fossil fuel industry. not a joke. literally. >> we made clear -- they made clear that they would rather threaten the default of the u.s. economy then get rid of for example $30 million in taxpayer subsidies to oil companies who made $200 billion last year. billion dollars last year. imagine the choice. imagine seeing this happen. wild fires, storms, floods, doing nothing about it. imagine taking away clean energy jobs from working-class folks across the country. imagine turning your back on moms and dads living in towns poisoned by pollution. i'm sorry, you're on your own. i was determined to not let that happen in with your help, we did not let that happen. we started negotiations with republicans in congress and they had a bull's-eye on the infla

that strange revelation comes as republican members of congress continue to try to figure out how to day republican-led house ethics committee announced that his issued dozens of subpoenas in the congress investigation into congressman santos. republican house speaker kevin mccarthy steadfastly resisting calls to push for santos's rega resignation. it's a problem because he's got enough problems on his hands to keep together his fraying republican majority as things stand. just last, night mccarthy through his conservative members some red meat when he allowed a vote to censure the democratic congressman adam schiff. that didn't satiate the gop's caucus, of course not. they all got together to vote on another symbolic rebuke of democrats. earlier today, the republican congress of colorado lauren boebert, introduced a measure to impeach president joe biden. the conservative congresswoman charge the president with high crimes and misdemeanors of not doing everything that the republicans want at the southern border. this is actually a policy matter. republicans tried to avoid the embarra

guest: kevin mccarthy created cyst -- consensus in the republican congress. we can only lose four or five votes on any given votes and that means the speaker has to listen to all voices inside our conference. i think he has done that. in a leading up to the passing the debt ceiling bill in the house, that was involved with every aspect of the republican conference and i think you will see us come back together and live to fight again another day. host: this incident happened yesterday, a blessing -- guest: i think it is a sign that people want to be listened to, some people did not like the outcome of the debt ceiling negotiations because they wanted larger cuts. we proposed $4 trillion in cuts they are debt ceiling proposal, some stronger regulatory reforms and we only got $2 trillion of spending cuts and more modest regulatory reforms. host: how concerned are you that the cuts that got you to vote for the bill will be undone as the appropriation process moves forward through creative accounting or all the different ways money can be moved in capitol hill? g

he had an entire republican congress, he didn't get it done. with a grain of salt everything he says including last night saying that he didn't have time to go through the boxes that the government was asking him for for 1 1/2 years because he's too busy. every picture i saw donald trump since he left the white house, you see him on a golf course playing golf. he could have spend a few hours going through the boxes to avoid what is happening to the country. >> would you ever run as a third-party candidate? >> no, i'm a republican. i'll run as a republican or i won't run. >> martha: you think that could happen, perhaps a republican and a democrat together? >> if trump is the nominee, that will happen. >> martha: let's get to some of the questions. teresa is a registered republican, small business owner. teresa, what is on your mind for the former governor? >> i feel like the middle class hard working middle class is muted. completely muted. third generation at one business and fourth generation at the other. i speak on behalf of all of my custom

. >> a republican member of congress saying too many republicans in congress have tried to stay underar on this. your sense, what we have witnessed in the past 48 hours changes the domestic conversations, specifically in the republican caucus, in congress about aid and further assistance to ukraine. >> i think it forces people like bacon to continue to speak out and to push his republican colleagues forward on the issue. to stop playing politics with whether or not we're going to be able to continue to give aid to ukraine. the people that i've talked to in congress also the administration, they often don't actually feel very nervous that there is not going to be aid from ukraine. there is a lot of blustering from far-right parts of the republican party. they say, you know, we're giving too much money. it's this in that we. should not be doing that. at the end of the, day when the vote happens, the vote has always. past and they feel like that's going to continue. we've also seen how the far-right of the republican party, over the last week, they are starting to flex muscles. so, that

this is a law that the republican republican congress and president trump put into place after he was elected to say basically mere possession of these and mir mere possession of documents. get you into big trouble. so, you know, you can sort of say, well, what harm did or didn't do. but the very fact that these are the some of my sensitive documents and we have and they're just laying around in bathrooms, ballrooms and storage cause. it's unintended is not itself place. by the way, where we know. foreign agents. love to traipse around and try and find weaknesses that itself is a very bad things like. well, it's it's one of those things. and you just on its face. violates the law. and that's really part of what is going to be about and whether or not they have any evidence that trace anything bad, happen it back. that think from his disclosure or or people finding him? have to see if the government has that or not. all right. michael yaki, we're out of time. you know, we'll be talking about this and as always, thank you, michael. >> have think you guys are the tracking? khalaf and att

if that's true, then does it matter what these republicans in congress? ga element still is ascendant in the republican party, no question about that. i agree with you on that point. here's where i disagree. i still think there are probably around 30%, one third, of republicans who desperately wants an alternative. i think that number is actually higher. there are people who want to move beyond trump. some of them, you know, support trump's policies. others do not. i think this is a much more complex situation in the republican party than we realized. but i do believe, knowing so many of my former colleagues and having speaking to several, they want trump to go away. they don't want him involved. they are also recognizing if they talk to them publicly about this, they run the risk of losing a significant piece of their base. that's their dilemma. it's a terrible dilemma. many of them don't want -- i say that respectfully, they don't want him. they think he's damaging the party. he is damaging the party. he has been, and he's causing them to lose elections

one republican congress along the sides of the continuous criticism. he says, israel as being facing within the united nations, these royalties routinely attacked and onto mind to across the entire system while the world's was human rights abuses. to remain, frankly, relatively, i'm touched, the effectiveness and the we just failure. so the united nations and you and bodies do not familiar with support of the un commission of inquiry investigates violations of international law, particularly human rights abuses, is taken name of israel for its actions against palestinians. the proposed budget code from the us would amount to more than the $700000000.00. washington's also looking to close the office of the special representative for palestinian affairs. this within the us state department of un says that more than a 100 the palestinians have been killed by his very forces in the 1st 5 months of this year. and that's twice as much as the same period last year that we heard from a pro palestinian activist from jerusalem of the supporting the is a to our p

and there's a lot being res, now, by republicans in congress about dividing family and their dealings and connections in ukraine. so many are wondering if this is not only and a half or 2 metal and prevent donald trump from being successful in the 2024 election. which fold indicate he would win if it were held today. but on top of that, many are looking at this and asking the question as to whether or not this is done to distract from the revelations that are now surfacing about dividing family and their connections and the efforts to pc all those things. so at this point, there's a lot of cynicism. there were many of donald trump supporters out in front of the court house to day protesting donald trump was greeted by many of his supporters in new jersey at a rally where he just gave that rousing message. there are many people to look on this as a dark day for american democracy, where it appears the department of justice is being weaponized against one candidate in order to secure the re election of another. as the case against trump is under way or a public, and senator has accused

is there any way here that the republican congress can pad up defense in the next couple years?he agreement they demanded from chuck schumer in order to to allow this to go ahead more quickly in the senate. they got can him to agree behind the scenes, i think he's making a public statement about how they are going to get all 12 of the appropriations bills done this year. he's also apparently going to allow them to put forward a supplemental for ukrainian spending. now, they're going to the use those two processes to the try to the plus up that defense budget bill, also to the make sure that as ukraine goes about its counteroffensive, that it has everything it needs. we see what the reaction to that is in the house, but the mechanism at least now has been set out by which for those republicans who were very concern about defense piece of this and the spending -- which i agree with -- they're going to at least have an a avenue to try to change that. paul: all right, thank you all. still ahead, xi jinping warns of stormy seas ahead as beijing confronts a faltering economy and growi

bribery escape involving the ukrainian company burst, most of the incumbent president joe biden. republican congress members have repeatedly been able to view documents from that inquiry in a secure room on capitol hill. it's off, it'll make us trying to hold the f b i, director and content for refusing to turn over those records. i drove items response came swiftly. it especially obligations as quote, a bunch of my lucky the notice was suggestion of what they should do or not to bring in the charge. and i'm honest, but it's not just the corruption allegations that again, when he asked and jo, where's the money? where we now, the congress has already found $10000000.00 worth of funds coming in from foreign governments that were directed through a series of, of llc ease. to do is grandsons and sons and grand daughters that there was intended to hide the transactions. we know where that 10000000, where it is important to get the investigation. and perhaps if we have a fair f b, i actually doing an investigation. we know where and keep in mind you've got to present bind streaming. we need federal laws

outcome eventually, after and months of haggling in the congress was something called the smoot hawley tariff, named after reed smoot, utah senator, republicanand willis hawley of oregon in the house. hoover was not that great a fan of tariffs privately but what he wanted was get this mess out of the log rolling in congress where you'll all vote for something that's important to your district if you vote for me and so everybody was sort of trading in the congress and all the rates were being raised and so it became of a carnival and it caused a lot of public commotion. so congress narrowly in the house is only 44 to 42, voted this through in the senate, i should say. the house was so close. and then hoover had, the question of whether he should sign it. hoover's interest had not so much in the the the the size of the rates which were already quite from that earlier 1922 one. but they were now to go higher still. what hoover wanted was something called the flexible provision, and that his rationale, his enemies said, his alibi for signing the bill when he did because it the executive branch through the tariff commission authority to recommend
