roger marshall blasted the amendment with manchin wanted tied to the defense bill. >> the final textamendment only saw the light of day week ago. the amendment has not been subject of any debate in committee. with had no witnesses and no markups. no way to make major changes to complex laws. senator manchin's amendment does nothing to address the problem of never ending environment a litigation. >> manchin was discouraged that it failed as the senate approved the defense bill. >> i want to clarify back. i clarify my friend listening to the clarification because no sitting bill. and someone has not informed you. that doesn't come from what you said. >> reporter: manchin was promised a vote on his plan in exchange for supporting the inflation reduction act last summer. manchin went to the amendment attached to a spending bill in september. a coalition of environment of the concerns democrats teamed up to reject the amendment. republicans were mad at manchin for supporting the ira. neil: thank you for that. neil: they will resolve this one way or another but the net will be dead burger,

gop senator roger marshall declined to condemn the comments saying he thinks media should focus elsewherewhat president trump said about the constitution. i just don't think that's the issue or what you all should be talking about. >> senator lindsey graham and senator tim scott declined to weigh in at all. >>> so this morning law enforcement heroes who defended the capitol on january 6th will be honored a the a gold medal ceremony with congressional leaders. congress passed the measure to award medals live by partisan vote but 21 house republicans voted against this passage. a reminder that some members of congress still do not acknowledge the truth about the deadly january 6th riot. one of the officers set to receive congress' highest honor today, capitol police officer harry dunn who was inside the capitol during the attack and called the n word by rioters more than a dozen times that day, months after the attack he spoke about living with the emotional trauma from january 6th at a congressional hearing. >> for those of us in the capitol police who serve and revere this institution, an

others like senator roger marshall, he said he hadn't seen it. when i pressed back he said maybe they had been taken out of context, that we the media should be talking about something else. other senators like lindsey graham and ken scott refused to apes any questions about it at all. we did hear from former vice president mike pence who really said that this was not -- he did not support this, that of course you must support the constitution if you are going to run for and hold public office. one person that we have notably not heard from so far is house minority leader kevin mccarthy. he has stayed very silent on all of this. the there's a sweet from several weeks ago in which he promised to read the entire constitution on the floor of the house when republicans take over during the next congress but that was before former president trump made these comments. nothing yet from mccarthy. jessica dean, cnn, capitol hill. >>> later today a new york jury will resume deliberations in the trump tax fraud trial. prosecutors say it was a 15-year scheme

democrats senator warren and republican senator roger marshall of kansas city say it is time for congresse the cryptoindustry follow the same money landering rules as everyone else warren wants to hang control of cryptooversight to the securities and exchange commission. the fcc while republican senator cynthia gives more authority to commodify future trading commission. lots of differing opinions, by the way one law professor says without u.s. regulation, the value of cryptoinvestments could simply disappear my oh, my. back to you. stuart: barry joins me now, congressman, you were at the congressional ftx hearing on tuesday. why do you think sam bankman-fried was arrested before he could testify before that committee? >> that's very interesting question. stuart, i ask that question really the night before the timing of this is unbelievable. and you know, the conspiracy theory side of me says that possibly somebody did not want him testifying to congress to say some things that they didn't want out. and not to tie it directly but one of the questions i have about regulation is, they were

republican senator roger marshall on the status on the hill and talks with going, whether the government shuts down. he has serious, serious reservations about the spending america sure. what happens if it goes down. let's go to chad pergram on capitol hill where the whole thing stands. >> reporter: neil, the senate is expected to approve the omnibus bill, title 42 sidetracked plans to approve the bill overnight. >> it is worth it. i appreciate the cooperation everyone here. the first vote will take a while until members can assemble. we intend everyone sit in their seat, we go through the amendments quickly as we know the storm is coming. >> reporter: gop utah senator mike lee want ad vote on his plan to preserve title 42. he got it. but the senate defeated that amendment 50-47. the amendment would alter the bill. it would probably make it impossible for the house to sync up with the senate. that could spark a christmas eve shut down. >> they were planning to have us vote through the night and into the wee hours of this morning except chuck schumer found out an amendment mike lee put to

kansas republican roger marshall blasted the amendment which manchin wanted tied to the defense bill. >> the final text of this amendment only saw the light of day just a week ago. the amendment has not been the subject of any debate in committee. we have had no hearings, no witnesses and no mark-ups. this is no way to make major changes to complex laws. finally, senator manchin's amendment does nothing to address the problem of never-ending environmental litigation. >> manchin was discouraged that the amendment failed even as the senate approved the defense bill. >> i need to respond to that. i wasn't intending to do so. i want to clarify it and i hope my friend would listen to my clarification. it is in the bill. either someone maybe had not informed you, sir, but basically that can't be done, what you said. >> manchin was promised a vote on his plan in exchange for supporting the inflation reduction act last summer. manchin originally wanted the amendment attached to a spending bill in september but a coalition of environmentally-concerned democrats teamed up with the gop to reject

michael, a lot of republicans reacted to griner's release with criticism here is what senator roger marshalllisten. >> let's think about we did hear. we traded a basketball player for a known terrorist and criminal. i hope brittani realizes that she lives in the greatest country in the world, the price of freedom isn't free. and i sure hope she will stand for the national anthem. >> so pretty quick pivot there to culture wars. it used to be that people on both sides celebrated the freedom of an american citizen at a minimum. now, this just becomes another partisan talking point. you had former national security adviser john bolton calling it not a swap but a surrender. your response to, that what is it tell us about the moment that we find ourselves in in this republican party? >> do we really give a damn what they think about britney griner's release? i mean, really, do we really care? is it, it is not even news. you could write that script in your sleep and just stick it in a post box somewhere. >> you are getting a producer fired tonight, michael. take it easy. >> no, i don't mean it that

this new bipartisan bill that's being proposed by senator liz warren and also republican senator roger marshallng that their new bill puts common sense rules in place to help close crypto money laundering loopholes and protect our national security and she's arguing that's really suspect organizations and individuals that largely use crypto. >> crypto has become the preferred tool for terrorists, more ransomware gangs, for drug dealers, and for rogue states that want to launder money. >> now also testifying in front of that senate banking committee in that ftx hearing was shark tank investor kevin o'leary, who made the argument the problem isn't really crypto. >> currencies have been used for drug trafficking since the 60s and the american dollar when it was thrown out of a pipe or aircraft in a duffel bag. the american dollar is also used by bad actors all the time. >> in reality there's little chance that this bill will pass in the final weeks to the current congress, the lame-duck session but you also had senator s gillebrand and luumis h ave been pushing their own bill for the last year and

inside of roger marshall tried a new verse -- didn't see that tweet. >> i don't know what president trumpt the constitution. i just don't think that's the issue. i don't think that's what you all should be talking about. >> what should we be talking about? when told about this comment -- did not condemn them, saying, quote, i don't know if that's been taken out of context or what, or where it came from. again, just in case you didn't know, it came directly from the mind and social media account of a former president. congressman dave joyce of ohio tried a variation on the theme and then would not rule out voting for the former president in 2024. >> well, you know, when president trump was in office, i don't make a habit of speaking out on his tweet du jour. i don't know what came out on whatever's new social platform is, but people were not interested in looking backwards. and donald trump was your nominee in 2016, 2020, you voted for him, 2016, 2020, now he's talking about suspending the constitution. and we support a candidate in 2024 whose for suspending the constitution? >> again, it'

we'll be joined by steve forbes, senator roger marshall of kansas and florida ag, ashley moody. thanks for watching. have a great night. cheryl: good morning, i'm cheryl casone, i'm in for maria bartiromo. it's thursday, december 29th. your top stories at 6:00 a.m. eastern time. covid concerns and the final two days of trading for 2022, futures reversing course after yesterday's losses. the dow up 64, s&p up 15 and a change, nasdaq up 76. stocks tumbled on the number of surging covid cases from china yesterday. tech stocks, energy stocks, leading those losses. the dow losing 365 at the close. this as we look ahead to this week's jobless claims, coming up this morning at 8:30 a.m. eastern time. we're going to get those numbers as they cross. there are the estimates for you. taking a look at european markets, a little bit of a mixed bag. ftse down by 11, cac and dax are higher. in asia overnight, you had red across the board. japan the biggest loser. and from the nation's capitol, the white house announcing it will require travelers from china to test negative for covid before ent

senator roger marshall tried a new verse of the song "didn't see that tweet." >> i don't hknow what presidenthe constitution. i don't think that is the issue and what you should be talking about. >> when told about the comments by cnn senator marshall still did not condemn them saying, quote, i don't know if that has been taken out of context or what or where it came from. again in case you didn't know it came directly from the mind and social media account of the former president. congressman dave joyce of ohio tried a variation on the theme and then would not rule out voting for the former president in 2024. >> well, yt in 2024. >> well, you know, when president trump was in office i didn't make a habit of speaking out on his tweet dujour and i don't know what came out on whatever his new social platform was but people are not interested in looking backwards. >> donald trump was your nominee in 2016 and 2020. you voted for him. now he is talking about suspending the constitution. can you support a candidate in 2024 who is for suspending the constitution? >> again. it is early. i think there

my colleague and i talked to senator roger marshall who said he simply didn't know what we were talking. he hadn't read the comments. i told him what the comments were and he said perhaps they were taken out of context and we should be talking about other issues, like gas prices and the economy. he did not want to be talking about this, that's for sure. we also tried to speak to senators lindsey graham and tim scott. they did not answer any questions on their thoughts about president trump's comments. we also heard from his former vice president, mike pence. here's what he had to say. >> i must tell you that i think everyone that serves in public office, everyone that aspires to serve or to serve again should make it clear that we will support and defend the constitution of the united states. >> now, over on the house side, house minority leader kevin mccarthy has remained silent on the whole issue. we can point to one tweet back in november, several weeks ago. he noted that he was vowing to read the constitution, every single word of the constitution on the house floor when republicans

senator rick scott, he called it political theater, senator roger marshall, it is time to move on andmney who is saying i've said from the beginning he was responsible for this but it is an interesting point that you're not seeing the full throttle defenses of the former president that perhaps you would have seen before. >> yeah, look at senator marshall's words, it's time to move on. i wonder if it has a double meaning. since 2020 how much power is trump going to continue to have? people -- it seems like it almost matters what trump does but what the republican party does in response to trump. and so, you know, with the midterms like seung min said and the trading cards and all these issues going on, it just seems like there's a slow backing away of the republican party from donald trump. >> some are coming out and saying, i don't think he should be the leader of our party. i interviewed a republican congressman from arkansas. he said there should be a generational change for both trump and biden. that others should come and fill the spot as the head of the republican party. for trum

some like roger marshall say they don't think it is a relevant question they should be asked about. >> i don't know what president trump said about the constitution. i just don't think that's the issue. i don't think that's what you all should be talking about. >> senator minority leader mitch mcconnell is expected to address what trump said today, but joining us now is trump's national security adviser john bolton, also the ambassador to the united nations and good morning, ambassador. i've seen your response to this, what you've been saying about trump's calls to terminate the constitution. do you think it should be disqualifying for a presidential candidate if they made comments like this? >> well, of course it is disqualifying. you know, the president takes an oath of office prescribed by the constitution itself that says he will to the best of his ability preserve, protect and defend the constitution. trump himself took that oath. and effectively he's now saying he didn't mean it. and if god, forbid, he were ever elected and took the oath again, we couldn't trust he would abide b
