joining us now onset ted cruz. how are you? god bless your big win this year. >> this was fantastic. tonight was incredible. this is the fifth estate of the union address i've seen trump gave. it was by far his best. it was we are just over a month into it and he had a litany of victories that we've already one one after the other after the other. i thought he was joyful and forward-looking. i thought he had the promise of america front and centre. i have to say the contrast, i have never seen such a disgraceful display as the democrats put on. i've been to 13 state of the union addresses altogether since i've been in the senate. i've never missed one. it started from the moment he walked in and was introduced, was introduced, the president of the united states, noticing old democrat stood, noticing old democrat applauded. not one. i've never seen that happen. every time joe biden walked into that chamber they introduced him at the pet -- as the president of united states, i stood up and copped. every time barack obama walked i

ted cruz rightly pointed out when, when joe biden was introduced, mr. speaker, the president of the united states, they stood up. >> yeah, i stood up. i've been to 18, 18 of these. i've been, you know, more more, more democrats than than republican of these. and i tell people this is the closest thing to pageantry we have in america, and it's a good thing for our country, and we should be there and respect the office of the president. >> i've had to suck it up after. >> of course, you. >> have a few elections that i didn't go my way. >> of course it's part of part of our great country. but tonight we saw a leader. we saw a leader who is more than any person i've ever seen in politics. he is doing what he told the american people he was going to do. i say this all the time. we make this job too complicated. it's simple. what did you tell the voters you were going to do? if you get elected, go do it. and for 40 some days, no one has done it with the intensity of this guy. and then further laying out the vision where he wants to take the country. that's wh

interesting to note senator ted cruz is spearheading this, one of the cosponsors of the bill. then candidate trump accused his campaign of buying the rights to and providing a racy photo of melania trump. ted cruz denied that accusation and recently said it should not be up to just a sitting senator to be able to bring some of these photos down when there is a legitimate case that something has to be done, so this will start shortly. they will have a couple of different lawmakers for the round table as they try to get the house to take this up and passing quickly. >> sandra: we will see what happens. thank you. now this. >> covid my friends, was the greatest threat faced in a generation. it was life and death. new york, we had at first, and we had it worse. everyone did their part. everyone held their position. and we kept this place, this great place running, and we saved lives, and we let the nation, so can we handle this challenge? can we turn the city around? you are [bleep] right, we can. >> sandra: andrew cuomo resigned under a dark cloud of multiple scandals, and now he

. >> thank you, senator ted cruz. i was just 14 years old when a classmate created a social media picture. i was 14 years old and violated all over social media and i was just 14 years old when my innocence was swept. i woke up to messages from a friend notifying me that the photos of me were circulating on social media, pictures from a past instagram photo with a nude body and newed body -- nude body attached. i was ashamed despite doing nothing wrong. i was scared of the reacs of someone or someone who could recreate these photos and they would refast and get brought up as i attended school. the school said it was out of their control. i not only blame the classmate, the boy used a going app that existed to a new to the app is no longer other apps are available. social media needs to take further action. wasn't until senator cruz reached out and my photos removed. we need to hold big tech accountable to take action. i came here to not only promote this bill and fight for freedom of so many survivors. male, female, k

senator ted cruz is spearheading this one of the co-authors of this bill back in 2016 candidate trumpgn of buying the rights and provided a racy photo of melania trump to an anti-trump pack, cruz denied the accusation and it shouldn't take a sitting senator to get some of the images taken down when there's a legitimate problem here the senate has pounced the bill is up to the house, we will be here when milana you trump first lady shows up on capitol hill. thank you very much indeed. the measles alert husband issued in new jersey after three cases were confirmed in that state. doctor marc siegel joins me is this because of lack of vaccination, is it as simple as that? >> it's as simple as that you cut to the heart of it. measles is incredibly contagious. and it will infect you if you come in contact with over 90% of the time with so contagious. if you're unvaccinated. if you're unvaccinated and you had one shot to 93% protection, two shots 97% protection, this is occurring largely because of people in young children or their parents that are getting them to take exemption at a young a

last time we had a talking filibuster was ted cruz a decade ago. the filibuster come if you think it forces politicians to get of the table to get over that supermajority threshold of 60 votes, it does not happen. right is used as a cultural to keep things off the floor so we never have to take these tough votes. voting exposes people and puts people where they stand it makes people and voters know what does my politician thank? when you don't vote you can talk out of both sides of your mouth and politicians love that because they can take advantage of being able to tell this audience this thing in this audience this thing there's no vote with their name attached to back it up. guest: -- host: down to port charlotte, florida. caller: i have one quick question. is it a myth or a truth that members of congress and the senate partake in insider trading? thank you very much. guest: insider trading. i don't know. i don't have any firsthand account of members of congress engaging insider trading. when you talk to everyday americans and ask should members

ted cruz says i have never seen such a disgraceful display as the democrats have put on. have been to 13 state of the union addresses. i have been to every one. i never missed one. every time joe biden walked into the chamber i stood up and clapped. >> this is a radical party that is full of rage and hatred. >> lawrence: somewhere down the line the democrats lost their way. the things that were discussed, i understand. some of them were -- had political messages. but when you have a kid that survived cancer, they didn't even -- maybe they did, but, from the view of the camera i did not see them cheer when they got the guy that killed 13. >> steve: they didn't. >> lawrence: killed 13 americans in afghanistan. and i mean i don't understand where they go from here this is an opportunity to put the partisanship away. they couldn't do it. we will be talking about it later on in the show and d.j. is going to be on the show. their explanation of why they did not clap, some in the mainstream media is lunacy. you didn't have to politicize that moment at all but you got nicolle wal

and i've spoken to you a number of times and i had you and your dad on this program with senator ted cruz. how did you feel when you got this great honor for your very brave daughter and what do you think of the democrats? >> it was truly an honor, a very surreal feeling to be sitting in that area, to remember the life that jocelyn had. i found it very cowardly that a lot of the democrats did not stand, did not clap, did not do anything to support anything that donald trump is trying to do as president to make this country better. it was very shameful to the democratic's. >> sean: i mean this is your precious 12-year-old girl and i looked at lakin riley's mom and she's tearing up and she's fighting back tears and we see this 13-year-old young man who became a member of the secret service, the new head of the secret service, which was a really special moment. this young man makes it into west point tonight. all of these incredible americana optics that anybody with a heart, mind, body and soul would love. your little daughter fought off these brutal, vicious, while, evil attackers. i can't

there's nancy mace with senator ted cruz.they are just talking about football and, you know, what they did on saturday night. there is ben shapiro. looks like a special guest of speaker johnson i believe. these guests at that the president is bringing in, what kind of story do you expect him to tell with some of these people? >> we know that president trump hates the mainstream fake news media and some of these journalists who have stood up for him are the new era, we are ushering in a new time in america where people who are street journalists, that have done blogs and podcasts, are in the building tonight. i think that speaks volumes. donald trump is the president of the people, he's a populist and people like ben shapiro, they've had great movies, they started with the daily wire, they are out there in that new generation, new era of journalism. >> i saw a riley gaines sitting with them and i would not be surprised to see the president lean into the protecting women sports issue because senate democrats just last night vot

for a for ted cruz. peter: you mentioned katie britt.he was chosen because she was a potential rising star and potential vp pick. jasmine: yes, she was seen as a rising star, someone who had a great future ahead of her. i would argue she is still in the mix, one of the white house hosing most used senators, most talk to senators. if these go poorly, sometimes it's bad pr, but it is not clearly derail your career. after hers, there were questions about whether or not she would be a good person. peter: do you see a lot of members? by the way, we've been simulcasting on c-span and c-span2. we will say goodbye to our c-span2 viewers, and that will be completely sights and sounds. if you want sights and sounds, stay with c-span2. if you want to continue listening to our program, we would love to have you. stay with us. jasmine wright of notus, jason dick of roll call, will be here with the greta brawner, of course. i did not mean to interrupt you. jasmine: people questioning whether she would be a good person to be trump's number two, but she

and as leader thune has said, and senator lindsey graham, senator ted cruz and others who are initially in favor of a different strategy of a two bill strategy, they acknowledge the importance of the house leading on this, i think, and i, i believe we're ultimately going to combine forces and get the one big, beautiful bill done. i think the effort is to get it done. the idea is to get it done by the end of april and get it to the president's desk for signature, because that will provide much needed relief to the american people. economic relief, stability for business owners and people who have to make decisions going forward. and in that same bill, dana will do all sorts of things, make sure the border is secure. we will get american energy dominance going again. we will reduce red tape and cut down the bureaucracy in this country that the american people want us to do. and and again, move one step forward even further in restoring peace through strength. so it's a critical piece of legislation. >> you met this past week with elon musk for several hours, i believe, on the white house

this was first introduced by senator ted cruz. it would criminalize the nonpublic, the publication of non-consensual intimate images, including a.i. generated pornography. it would also require social media networks to remove all content after being notified by a victim of such images. now, the bill passed the senate last month. it still needs to pass in the house, but it was notable that democrats were largely absent from the roundtable event today. while many republican leaders speaker johnson, house majority leader scalise, they were there. and this is a fact that the first lady called out today. >> i must admit, however, i expected to see more democrats leaders with us here today to address this serious issue. surely as adults, we can prioritize americans children ahead of partisan politics. >> now, notably, this is a bipartisan bill, jake, and there are many democratic co-sponsors of it. >> and how does the first lady support of this bill tying her into her be best initiative from the first term? >> the be best was from the f

[laughter] there we go and ted cruz. >> you are talking about senator katy britt last year. up to that rebuttal sheru was chosen because she seemed to be star and a potential vp pick pick. >> you seen as a risingnt star someone who had a great future ahead of her i would argue she is still in the mix. she is still one of the most talk to senators on the hill. with these rebuttals go poorly there is some bad pr. it does not completely derail your entire career but certainly after hers there a lot of questions about whether or not she would be a good person. >> you see a lot of members, by the way we have been simulcasting on c-span and cspan2. now were going to say goodbye to the cspan2 viewers. that will be completely sights and sounds. if you want just sights and sounds stay with cspan2. went to continue listening to our program we would love to have you. stay with us.

know, deep fakes and this revenge, that kind of relationship stuff that we that we have seen, that ted cruz has championed these efforts. but she also took a dig at democrats. this is what she had to say. >> i expected to see more. democrats leaders with us here today to address this serious issue. surely as adults, we can prioritize america's children ahead of partisan politics. >> what did you make of that, jeff? >> well, i think democrats are not eager to work with the administration on really anything right now. and if they felt like there was an olive branch on any of the things that they cared about, that they also think should have bipartisan support, then maybe they would have a little bit more room for bipartisan support on this. in fairness, i do believe congressman ro khanna was there, but i think he was the only democrat in the room. >> jeff mason, shall we take it? we'll see both of you tomorrow night. up next, how are democrats going to respond? they'll be there as well. some are boycotting, but a lot of them will be there. my next guest will, some of them putting federal work

but you hear even ted cruz, even ted cruz, his statement was, oh, russia is an enemy. so i think this is this administration is just, you know, in a very odd situation where you have two, two competing camps. and i think trump i think instinctively trump is close to jd vance, but he also looks at the ratings. and if the ratings will show that his views on russia are not popular, so he may actually shift back and find a way to bring zelenskyy and europeans under his wing. and because he wants to be a winner, and it doesn't seem that he's his position now is offering him an extra rating points. >> chairman of the. >> renew democracy initiative, garry kasparov, thank you so much is right up. >> for the atlantic. >> available online now. the washington post david ignatius, thank you. >> as well. >> his latest. >> piece is. >> online now. >> for the washington post. >> and president. >> and founder of eurasia. >> group and g. >> zero media, ian bremmer. thank you as well. coming up, new reporting on president trump's so-called maga media. army and how it's more influential.

that's why senator ted cruz had to renounce canadian citizenship because he was born in the u.s.y canadian mother. >> every time someone is born they have to determine the citizenship or the immigration status of their parents and how would that play out? i mean, does the delivery nurse have to ask which border the person came across, whether or not they checked in, whether they filed an asylum claim or whether maybe they just overstayed their visa to study here if they were, for example, from south africa, do you have any thoughts on that? >> it would impose enormous bureaucrat burden on hospitals, on state agencies, on our already overburdened immigration and the parents of newborn children and as imlawyer many people lack documentations of their citizenship or of their immigration status in they're lawful permanent residence, they may not be able to show that and we are asking these people the time of child's birth to prove this or risk having the child be deemed undocumented immigrant from the moment it's born. >> i do think it's interesting that this is hardly the open and s

ted cruz said the war should come to an end in a way that is a clear and unequivocal loss for russiaaid i am sick to my stomach as the administration appears to be walking away from our allies and embracing putin. leader thune said no question about who started the war. russia is the aggressor here. senator thom tillis, who is up for election next year. president putin is evil and he has to be stopped. louisiana senator kennedy, to the extent that the white house has said ukraine started the war, i disagree. senator cramer, trump is factually wrong to call zelensky a dictator. senator rounds, clearly ukraine needs our support, and i think the vast majority of us are very supportive. >> of ukraine. >> they were the ones that were attacked. and then bacon said, too bad iran, north korea and china are not pausing their military aid and economic support. that is a long list of republicans, senator, that share your concern about donald trump cutting off aid to an ally who has been invaded by russia. >> well, you're right, joe. i'm glad to hear those statements, but we need more action out
