barack obama, ted kennedy, i worked for bill clinton for eight years of his presidency. and share you other levarious o. i think you'll hear this a lot from everybody that once you get bit by the bug, it's hard to let it go. and i can honestly say, though, that i'm done doing presidential campaigns after doing too many of them because you do slightly able out of those. >> hey, everybody, my name cease steve mcmahon and i actually normally would be teaching the fall semester in washington, this year i am not. i see there's lots of students here, how many of you are in the nyu program? a lot of you, that's fantastic. i came to washington like stephany did right out of college and i wanted to work on capitol hill, and i was able to get an internship for somebody that stephanie also worked for, senator ted kennedy who inspired me as well. and i know a lot of you who are in this internal washington program and have internal ships and you're asking the can annen internship lead to anything? it absolutely can. i finished my internship and i got a job and i couldn't believe it a

senator ted kennedy, who inspired me as well. i know a lot of you who were in the nyu washington program have internships and you might wonder, and an internship leading to anything? the answer is yes. i finished and i couldn't believe it. so i came and i works and senator kennedy's staff for 3.5 years and went to law school and then i had the book as well. i thought it was going to be a lawyer but i missed politics and campaigns and i came right back to washington. either working political campaigns and now working politics for companies and brands ever since i got here little bit more than 30 years ago. so i'm dating myself too. this is a great group. i hope you enjoy the evening. >> good evening everybody. i'm honored to be teaching at nyu this semester. i'm thrilled that my class is sitting in the first couple of rows. they're smart enough to recognize that they want to be down close to where the action is. so it's good to see you guys. >> extra credit?

ted kennedy let a woman die. bill clinton. if they have treated women like spoils for the powerful.ers, waitresses, campaign entrance. as for booker, i commend him for his honesty. he basically said we will ruin a man and accept the collateral damage of his family, his family's torture, because the causes bigger than any individual and the left-wing causes bigger than the actual system itself. subvert a system. corey would be a great fascist. >> juan: i think he is talking about the man's credibility. >> greg: he could be a great, he would have been great in east germany. >> judge jeanine: the greatest hypocrisy is when they say, kerry says they stood up and owned their moments. they only on their moments after the statute of limitations. >> jesse: didn't he wear a fake neck brace? he played the victim. >> juan: i see. so this woman out there, putting her name and face in public. >> greg: yeah, we hate her, juan. we think she's evil. >> juan: tribalism. greg's monologue on how a mob mentality has taken over college campuses. that's next. have some fun. watch "the five" ." the riskie

senator ted kennedy had a very large role in directing the research topics in the first few years that ota would take up. there were topics that he felt were important. ota was able to later fix itself, but there was an initial taint due to politicians using their authority. that was not the only incident. one legislative branch support agency, a congressman has is extra friend hired as a researcher. she did not have credentials. he directed it. it was done. another support agency hired the former congressional aide in political operative with no obvious expertise. she later married a representative who was in caught taking bribes. always diplomatic -- all was symptomatic. so it was not a backlash begin to form against the size of the legislative branch of the number of staff and staff behavior. when congress convened a joint committee on the organization of congress in the early 90s and issued its bipartisan report in 1993, it advocated a 12% cut in legislative branch staffing. congress had too many staff and had become remarkably a bipartisan opinion. one -- on the other end of the p

( cheers and applause ) >> stephen: got that. you are a news man. you would know that. >> on the other hand, you know, it's probably a safe bet that some of those senators are doing something. >> stephen: washington, d.c. is a sample of the worst people in america. >> you have to believe at least a quarter of the senate said, he knows! ( laughter ) >> stephen: so the f.b.i. investigation trump wants, he says he wants it to be comprehensive and within reason. >> which is kind of

senator ted kennedy, who greatly liked o.t.a. and believed in o.t.a., had a very large role in directing the research topics in the first few years that o.t.a. would take up. topics he thought were important and were important to the democratic legislative agenda. they were able to later write themselves, but there was that initial taint, politicians misusing authority. that obviously wasn't the only instance. agency, aport congressman had his ex-girlfriend hired as a researcher. didn't matter that she didn't have credentials. he directed it, it was done. another legislator hired a former congressional aide and political operative with no obvious expertise, and she later married a representative who was all caught taking bribes, of which was symptomatic of a kind of spreading on professional -- unprofessionalism in what was supposed to be a professional legislator. so a backlash began to form against the size of the legislative branch, and the number of staff and staff behavior. when congress convened a joint committee on the org

breyer had been ted kennedy's chief counsel. but they were both well respected and had solid reputations on the court of appeals. i knew that and i helped them. so when president clinton called me in 1993 to ask my views on who he should nominate to the supreme court, i suggested ginsburg and breyer because i was sure he was going to pick the most left-wing nutcake that he could find. [ laughter ] they were certainly not the nominees i would have chosen had i been president but as ranking member on the senate judiciary at the time, i thought it was important to work with the white house to dial back the problemses with the confirmation process. and the bitterness that was existing. and the rankor that had been escalating for so long. to his credit, president clinton nominated justices ginsburg and breyer. both had smooth confirmations and confirmation processes and were confirmed overwhelmingly by both democrats and republicans. justice ginsburg's confirmation vote was 90-3. justice breyer's was 87-ni9. so after the all-out part

if you had a conversation with my colleagues about working with me, they used to be a guy named ted kennedy, there still is a guy named mike enzi from wyoming. ted was a well respected democrat the republicans loved to work with and i once asked him why. and he said, i'm not going to change my principles but i'm willing to compromise on policy. i took his advice and i took it to heart. last week we passed a 99-1 vote, a huge infrastructure bill that has huge impacts for delaware, quality of our beaches, quality drinking water, wastewater. and we get back into session the day after the election in the first legislation we take up as the re-authorization of the coast guard, which i wrote as well with republicans and democrats. one thing i've love to do ever since i was governor, when i was chairman of the national governors association, i do the same thing for new senators. we have orientation for new senators and spouses, i've helped run that for 17, 18 years. maybe rob will be one of the people coming in as a new senator, if he is that will make sure he gets a good start. it gives me a chan

it was joe biden and ted kennedy, those are the people thing he shouldn't deserve to come on the court. to your brilliant point, he stood and fought and it ended. brett kavanaugh stood and fought. they said we haven't done this in a long time, this president has given our party the courage and the conviction to fight and win. it's as if our party, we forgot how to fight. we always kind of just rolled over and tried to appease the middle and finally we have fought and won and now the court is back to a 5 -4 constitutional majority. it's about the rule of law. >> the idea that young people, that there's no young people. >> it's not even close to being true. we had an event with over a thousand students and this was during the kavanaugh controversy, roaring u applause we talk about due process and cross-examination in the rule of law. i'll tell you what. there are people on college campuses that see themselves in brett kavanaugh. wrongfully accused about anything whether it's cheating on a test or not being a party or disobeying curfew. everyone somewhere in life has been wrongfully accus

the last time i checked, ted kennedy had a few drinks and things didn't go too well.l clinton was credibly accused of rape by juanita broaddrick and remember how nbc treated that? they spiked the 18 a broderick story and they went full on with this woman's claims in this woman is being run, as you call him, the creepy porn lawyer. running as a democrat. none of her alibis check out. i'm thinking to myself and be news spiked the ronan farrow story and they go with this? they have no standards. >> greg: juan, you can respond to jesse or answer my question. isn't avenatti the best thing that could happen to republicans? >> juan: they are certainly making him into that. >> greg: has he done anything good for the democrats? >> juan: avenatti has stormy daniels. let me say jesse's affection for judge kavanaugh, as a fellow frat boy. that's what it is. this story, unlike what you are talking about, is about the judges credibility. if he is in the bar engaging in bar fights on throwing ice, this is a guy who says he was a choir boy. he said nothing like this was going on. >>

because of that i think 12 republicans supported it, people like john mccain and corker and ted kennedy had a good bipartisan -- what did the republicans do? the speaker of the house refused to bring it up as a vote. >> that's right. >> had that bill come up in the house of representatives where you were serving, would you have voted for it? >> i would have worked with my colleagues to improve it so i could have voted for it. >> what didn't you like about it? >> well, to andre a's question, it had a significant militarization component of it. if you live in massachusetts, if you're going to change the quality of life for us in eagle pass, del rio, that's important to us. i wanted to make sure that my voice, those constituents that i represent in el paso are heard. and moved forward. >> and passed it. >> that's the essence of the democracy. >> you are the expert on this. this thing about bringing 5,000 soldiers, the soldiers have no authorization to be engaged with border patrol. what are they going to do? not let them shoot anybody. they say we won't shoot anybody. what are they doing t
