roger marshall joins me now from kansas. congratulations and welcome. >> thanks, brooke.having us on. >> as far as your special sauce in winning, do you think that publicly supporting donald trump helped you win? >> that's really not come up, brooke. i think this race was all about agriculture to kansas. we've not had a voice on the house ag committee for three years. we think agriculture is what pushed us through to victory here. >> in a race though, and in many races, and really in this movement, whether it's been bernie sanders or donald trump though, a lot of americans have latched on to this anti-establishment sort of candidate. i know you've publicly supported him. do you think that played any role whatsoever? >> i really think it would be way down the list.70% of our ec a culture. we have more cattle in this state than people. i think it still came down to agriculture is key. >> you created a website that called "lyin' tim." we think back to the days of "lyin' ted," which was from donald trump used to label his/poephis opponent. did you tailor that after mr. trump?

hard line conservative and freedom caucus is facing a strong challenge from roger marshal. remember the camp listening and was a thorn for john banner. morn that and a lot of these races coming up. marshal is getting a lot of help from traditional republican party sources and the chambers of congress. we shall see. will he be the forty to lose in a primary. >>> coming p the biggest story of the day. we gave you a hint in the early conversation. we will focus on it in the next. americans are buying more and more of everything online. and so many businesses rely on the united states postal service to get it there. because when you ship with us, your business becomes our business. that's why we make more ecommerce deliveries to homes than anyone else in the country. the united states postal service. priority: you with toothpaste or plain water.an their dentures and even though their dentures look clean, in reality they're not. if a denture were to be put under a microscope, we can see all the bacteria that still exists on the denture, and that bacteria multiplies very rapidly.

a big thorn, lost his fight to roger marshall. this could make them less fearful of the base. it gives cover to distance themselves from trump or others. we'll see. let me bring the panel back in. it wasn't just huelskamp that lost. the establishment struck back up and down the ballot in kansas. is this a canary in the coal mine for the freedom caucus ring of the party? >> i think it is a movement toward getting things done. we've had too many people who have made careers over the last several years, obstructing, shouting no and gumming up the works. this is what we're standing up for and he paid a price for it. he was representing the biggest agricultural district in the country. he was such a pain in the neck that he got himself kicked off of the agriculture committee. this was a fight over whether someone can be that obstructionist and get things done and he couldn't. >> here's my concern going into the general election with donald trump on election day. he is a disaffected white voter, what barack obama was for black voters. that leaves paul ryan with a concentrated right

that boosted challenger roger marshall, who won 57% of the vote on tuesday. >> woodruff: there is reportingay that the u.s. organized an airlift of $400 million-- in cash-- to iran, last january. it came just as tehran released several jailed americans, and as a nuclear deal was being implemented. the "wall street journal" reports the money was part of settling a disputed, 1970s arms deal. republicans called it "ransom"-- but the white house rejected that: >> this all came to a head at the same time because we are addressing and resolving longstanding concerns with iranian behavior. the united states, under president obama, has not paid a ransom to secure the release of americans unjustly detained in iran. and we're not going to pay a ransom. >> woodruff: officials say the payment had to be made in cash because international sanctions on iran barred any other method. >> ifill: a u.n. commission reports islamic state ghters in syria are still holding thousands of minority yazidis as sex slaves or fighters. they were captured two years ago at sinjar in iraq. thousands more fled the city, but

guest: well, roger marshall won. is much moreer than that.saw last night was a strong repudiation of tim huelskamp's politics. agriculture is the largest economic sector in his district -- it relies on legislation from washington at times and he has been removed from the house agriculture committee. and that came back to bite him last night. marshall brought a message of compromise and being able to work with moderate republicans. oftenp said tim huelskamp occurs with. and the message obviously resonated. host: how much did marshall win by? guest: by more than 13,000 votes and 13 percentage points. to the extent that there was any prediction about last night, it was that it would be close. that was what the polling had shown and what both sides expected. i spoke to both sides prior to expectedts and both a close race. it was not that close. a stunning victory by marshall. host: did we hear from tim huelskamp yet? guest: no news yet, it no press release. he briefly opened up his watch party to reporters last night but then had them removed pre

roger marshall who has the backing of the u.s. chamber of commerce. and is challenging him.sarily from the right but as being ineffective. because of his conservatism, his obstruction views are hurting the district. specifically the farm bill. so this is a case where we could see the fourth incumbent lose in a primary. host: one of the other races deals with jim mcdermott, tell us about that? guest: sure. he has retiring from the seattle area seat. one of the most liberal areas. obama received his 79% in the general election. this isn't going to fall into republican hands but 20 have is washington is a top two system. we talk to will move on to the general election. it looks like two democrats will move on but we are not sure which ones. one of them will be filled in by joe mcdermott. even though they share the same last name, they are not related. but he benefits a little bit from that name. then, there are two other candidates in position for the second spot. workshop.dy he could become the first openly gay latino member of congress. and then you have a state senator who i

roger marshall. race is deadlocked according and theversity poll, mercury in kansas reporting that likability is a factor in that campaign. look at key house and senate races from today's " washington journal," and we will show you as much of this as we can't to take you to our live coverage of the u.s. chamber of romerce and the visit singapore's prime minister. kyle with the university of virginia's center for politics, also the author of the bellwether, why ohio picks the president. we will broaden that to the battleground states, but we will start there since you have written a book on ohio and hillary clinton just launched her campaign into pennsylvania and ohio. what makes it so important? guest: it has been a microcosm of the nation ever since it was founded. it was the 17th state in the union, but some people call it the first american state because it had new englanders sub -- settling the northeastern, southerners settling the southwest, it has remained that microcosm and it very close to t

congressman jules was defeated by roger marshall last night.up, more from "washington journal" with a discussion on the obama administration's plans to move ahead the transpacific partnership trade deal. our next guest, jordan fabian of "the hill." covering the issue of trade. talk about the press conference you attended yesterday and what you wanted to talk to the president about. caller: the white house gave me a 15 minute heads up. i wanted to ask him about the tpp. he met with the president of singapore yesterday. i wanted to ask the president about the fact that hillary clinton opposes the deal, tim kaine opposes the deal. donald trump opposes it, to make. -- opposes it, too. will you get this passed before your successor takes over? [video clip] president obama: right now, i'm president, and i am for it. i think i have the better argument. i have made this argument before and i will make it again. we are part of a global economy. we are not reversing that. it cannot be reversed. because it is driven by technology and it is driven by trave

note that john marshall has to swear in jefferson just as roger tawney is going to be swearing in abraham lincoln and you remember the slightly flubbed swearing in when obama was sworn in by john roberts. these are slightly tense moments. i'm getting ahead of the story a bit. marbury versus madison is conventionally thought as john marshall invalidating act of congress, but the real drama is john marshall against thomas jefferson because marshall's opinion goes on and on about how lawless the jefferson administration has been, in the same way that today's court is being invited to say, well, the obama administration is lawless on immigration policy, and the obama administration was lawless on obamacare and not just in the law, but the implementation of the law, and the obama administration is lawless on some of their carbon rules and the epa. so this is nothing new. it's a feature of the distinct structural pattern of a presidency that's a four-year term with this tidal feature and justices who have life tenure. so marbury is a drama. now flash forward. roger tawney and abraham lincoln. a

john marshall wasn't a judge before he was a justice and his replacement, roger tawney, wasn't a judge before he was a justice, and his replacements, wade and fuller weren't judges before they were justices. and earl warren wasn't a judge before he was a justice and before him charles evans hughes before he was an society justice wasn't -- and later became chief -- wasn't a judge and neither was william rehnquist before he was an socieassociate justice. william howard taft was a judge before he was chief justice but he had some other really important jobs also. you're thinking boats, i'm thinking professor at yale law school. whereas today except for elena kagan -- the court that gave you brown versus board of education none of them except one was a federal judge and the one none of you will even remember. not earl warren, not williams douglas, not hugo black, sherman minton. anyone remember sherman minton, he was also a senator. he had a lot of political experience. today except for elena kagan all the justices were sitting federal appellate judges at the time of their appointment. yo
