they all promised energy independence from richard nixon to ford to carter, reagan, bush, clinton, bushut the only person who has actually supported the endeavors of the oil and gas industry is the current administration. while there are many things about the current administration that raise questions in my mind, and some disdain for the behaviors we see, i think the policies are making a major difference in the notion of energy security in the united states. guy: you think you could band fracking? only with economic collapse as a consequence. why do i say that? if we stop rapping by some government -- if we stop fracking by some government yet, the price of oil would skyrocket good i am talking six to seven dollars a gallon if we stop fracking. it would immediately lead to major declines in oil production and we do not have an alternative to the internal combustion engine, whether it is for personal transportation, whether it is for freight, marines, the turbines for aircraft. an administration comes in and thinks they will be all-powerful and condemn or stop the use of technology, wh

i live in the 1970s,97 worse decade since the depression for the economy and richard nixon and jerry fordbut it was a efsaster and we had -- i remember this vividly. 15% rate of inflation, 20% mortgage interest rates, economy industrial diving people said japan would take over the world and the u.s. was in the twilight of america's economic supremacy and reagan came in and we cut our tax rates from 70-20% and he violated the economy and got moflation out of the system and had an economic boom that lasted almost 20 years. eightys and 90s and to clinton's credit the economy boomed under reagan and moved under clinton and those were prosperous years. we need that again. we need return to those policies. trump is doing that but reagan won the cold war and i believe he probably belongs on mount rushmore. >> host: is there a relevant from president obama's effort on the economy? [laughter] >> guest: i think that on balance he did the best he could but it was a meager recovery. i mentioned earlier this has been a long recovery and the problem has its benefits recovery. for middle-class workers t

he pointed to the historical context of gerald ford pardoning richard nixon, a mo ve that may have cost him the election, but it's very much a topic that divides not only the democratic party on the hill right now but especially the country especially because there is not strong public support for impeachment right now of donald trump. >> daniel, i will let you have the last word on this topic. nchts i thi >> i think eric holder is trying to straddle that divide where you want to make sure progressives don't feel like they're being ignored, but also nancy pelosi is realistic that you don't have the votes in the senate and so does this really help democrats in 2020 or could you just help ensure a second trump term, with is no democrats won. so that-- want. >> the beat will go on. there's a discussion that frankly they're running out of time. thank you so much for joining us early on this sunday morning. >>> 14 days, why the sentence for felicity huffman in the college bribery scandal is raising questions about whether there is really equal justice for all. t whether there is really equal

gerry ford,- richard nixon, lyndon johnson, president and senate majority leader.nnedy, a senator for a number of years. we moved from the insider to the outsider. there will all sorts of larger questions that i thought deserved exploration. you write,e book "early in the 1976 campaign, newspaper headlines asked a two word question. jimmy who? at carter's triumph again significant trend in presidential history. the six presidents who proceeded carter were washington insiders or well connected. presidents who followed included clinton, -- reagan, george w. bush, obama, and trump." guest: yes. i think we can see, and you just devoted an hour compartment andsed on the iowa caucus, jimmy carter did well on the iowa caucus. host: he did not win it, though. guest: he did not. day on the today show or c-span or anywhere else -- he did well enough. that was the springboard for his potential nomination. ,ther candidates followed suit put their emphasis on the early contest, whether it be iowa or new hampshire. we ended up with a much more participatory and selection process

that was something that richard nixon did with kissinger, but when gerald ford took over from nixon,le of national security advisor from kissinger and just headed to the secretary of state. could mike pompeo do the job? absolutely no question about it because he runs a lot of the national security council meetings anyways. in some ways, i'm told, john bolton more of a liaison between the council and the president. and then a strong national security of advisor. in fact, bolton had been kept out of left a lot of those meetings. it's not too much of a stretch to think pompeo could do both of those jobs. reasons why it would not happen and i'm being way documented by white house officials that i've spoken to, is, first of all, pompeo was toying with the idea were instead of saying toying with the idea, given consideration to possibly run for the senate from kansas next year. so if he were to take on both roles and then depart to run for the senate, the president would not only lose secretary of state but national security advisor as well. i have also heard concerns raised to give him bo

here to react ford o'connell civic pac, republican strategist, richard fowler, national radio show.with you. so many democrats say we won on broken health care. now we'll come fix it. how do you think it plays instead they go down the impeachment road and you know, we still have broken health care? >> listen i think democrats can walk and chew gum at the same time. i wrote a recent op-ed on foxnews.com talking about just that. as democrats have to do as impeachment inquiry goes on they have to have regular order. all other committees -- melissa: are they close to getting something done on health care? >> we're ready to get something done on health care. what is holding health care up, what is holding prescription health care bill on the house up is mitch mcconnell and white house. the white house has not signal, we need the white house. melissa: we go to the next election, mitch stopped us from doing our job will that play well with voters? >> what american people are not realizing is washington is broken. what they have realized one of the reasons washington is broken the white hou

the testimony and do also what was done over the guard to president gerald ford when i was in the department of justice and richard and and the house judiciary committee which demanded and he appeared and testified about his pardon of nixon. unfortunately believe that the president and the executive branch will stonewall as they've had on so many other executive officials who have refused even to appear if congress doesn't stand up and either put them in jail which they have the power to do or impeach them i think we're just going to have court litigation for years that will become moot is a justice department covering protecting the president yes that clearly is made i worked at the department of justice in its mission is to defend executive progressives whether they're right or wrong and here we have an instance the president remember is the one who has who appoints the department of justice and those who serve the believe that their client is the president so this is clearly an instance where you don't have a department who is impartial between congress and the president there in the favor of the present becaus

richard nixon to resign. but what we saw after that, i think, is really important for -- to note in history. and that is, craig, that gerald forde his famous speech after being sworn in as the 38th president, succeeding richard h nixon. he said a long national nightmare is over. that's what we all remember. but what came after that is even more important. he said our constitution works. we are a nation of laws and not men. and this is, i think, a test of our constitution. to see if it works. and to see if we are a nation of law and -- laws, rather, and not men. and that's up to republicans to decide, i think. >> mark murray, while i have you here, some breaking news on the hill. another retirement, it seems. this is texas republican congressman mac thornberry, top republican on the house armed services committee, by my count, this would be the sixth house republican from your home state of texas to announce that they won't run. what's in the water in texas? >> craig, you are right. this is the sixth republican from texas who won't be seeking reelection. part -- a lot of this has to do with now republicans being in the minority,

for example, in the watergate prosecution we could have indicted richard nixon up until the point he was pardoned by president ford. however, we wound up indicting four other people who assisted nixon in the preparation of hisr false returns. so here you've got people like weisselberg who was given immunity by the feds, but that immunity doesn't carry over to b the state. you've got people who were involved in actually dealing ot with this hush money, dealing with the books and records. so there are lots of potential e defendants here who could be charged with crimes related -- >> this is the pulling on the yarn. cynthia, what can cy vance offer michael cohen? what does he get for it? >> first of all, revenge is a wonderful motivation which another reason why you don't want him on the stand. you know, cy vance isn't in a position to do anything about his federal time because he's serving time in a federal prison. and he can't really do anything about that. so i would say, you know, cohen obviously feels it's deeply unfair and i would agree with him that he's the only person serving time for the campaign finance vi

one of the miscalculations richard nixon made in 1973 after agnou was caught accepting a brown bag of cash, agnou would have fit right in with this crowd was to put gerald fordce president. thinking people can't imagine gerald ford sitting at this desk. he was wrong. is pence's credibility with that base actually a force working against trump in this? that the base might say, you know what? we hate to lose our hero, but we're going to be okay with pence? >> if the base could ever look past donald trump and all the space that he occupies, they would be quite happy with mike pence. i know a lot of conservative friends who were relieved when donald trump selected mike pence as his vice-presidential nominee. and, but mike pence actually his role in this entire ukrainian affair has yet to be uncovered. there was an interesting question posed to him by an ap reporter in poland back on september the 2nd and the ap reporter asked specifically if mike pence had talked about the ukrainian president digging up dirt on the bidens. and he did not answer that question. it was after there was a meeting in a windowless room where mike pence, the president of ukraine zelensk
