but former congressman tim ryan, back with us, because he is a solution. tim, talk to us about your new organization, we, the people, which you say is resent -- representing the exhaust majority. >> yeah, and people are exhausted. i sought through my senate race. anyone paying attention knows that the vast majority of americans are exhausted. and we want to have a landing place for them. we don't want people to check out, which is what i'm hearing from a lot of people here in ohio, that they're ready to not vote, not participate. we, the people, we want to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the country coming up here in a few years. we're lucky we made it this far, 250 years, we want another 250. but we want to start talking and recognizing we've got to heal, we've got to unify, we want better. and we, the people, is gonna be the organization where people can come and be a part of that solution. >> but what does that mean, right? i'm offered a 250-year celebration, but in last we change how our system works, right, unless we change closed primaries, that fru

former congressman tim ryan. thank you so much.e insulated from america's gun violence epidemic. not even high school football games under the friday night lights. take a look at this. oklahoma police say one person was killed after gunfire broke out during a game last night in the town of choctaw. watch as the shots rang out creating panic on the field. >> what is going on? >> police say three people were shot during an argument on the visitors side of the field. a 16-year-old boy was killed, according to police. two guns and eight rounds of ammunition were recovered. no arrests have been made. >>> in chicago, police say two fans were injured by bullets at the white sox game last night. it's unclear what exactly happened. what we know is both victims are women. one was hospitalized with a gunshot wound to her leg. according to officials, the second woman was grazed in the abdomen but was -- she refused medical treatment. police are now investigating whether the shots were fired from inside or outside the ballpark. the game continu

thanks to him -- i was in tim ryan's district. his district included northwest akron.st akron is the furthest part of akron, but because of gerrymandering, i really loved tim ryan. he replaced a guide named jim traffic and. he reminds me of donald trump. he was a democrat, but one of his most famous quotes was "i deal with the mafia all the time and sometimes i can't tell the mafia from the fbi." he made the democrats look wishy-washy. then we got donald trump. i love people from youngstown. i have a friend from youngstown, ohio. he tells me that the mafia works in youngstown, but they live in warrant. when people think -- for the mafia youngstown is the midpoint between chicago and new york. they turned red for trump, youngstown, youngstown turned red for trump. akron, we are as blue as can be. i wonder what you think the future of ohio, which is becoming a red state -- i would like it to be more purple. is there any hope that ohio can be a purple state? as an independent, ia would like ohio to be purple. i am glad issue one failed. not because of abortion, because i

. >> i know the primary this week, tim ryan said yesterday he does not support any limits on abortion? what is the president thinking? >> the president has baited his view many times. >> the president has spoken about this many times and peter i will refer you to comments about abortion and the woman's right to choose to make decisions about her body with a doctor, which is what any of those women would do. >> harris: okay, little bit of the lecture. but she's not the only democrat who dodged the question. >> should women be allowed to choose abortion up to birth? do you think women should be allowed to choose abortion up to birth? >> do you think women should be allowed to choose abortion up to birth? >> can you repeat that? >> do you think women should be allowed to choose abortion up to birth? >> yeah. >> harris: wow! that was dodging. shannon, i'm sorry, your lips moving? [laughter] >> shannon: i don't have time for this discussion right now. it is important issue. i went and pulled the transcript a few weeks ago on this as well because really pressing him here to think it is fair

you know, i was talking to former democratic congressman tim ryan in the previous hour, one of your former colleagues, and while he said yes, that was an amusing response from the president, he indicated that he would like to see the president and/or the white house talk about the seriousness of the alleged crimes that the former president is alleged to have been involved in. and explain that in a way to the country where people understand that a bit more. and i understand perhaps the president, white house, don't want to indicate that they're tipping the scales in any kind of way. your thoughts on that. should the president do more than, you know, just make a quip about how trump looked in the mugshot? >> no. he should not. he should stay out of this, and he shouldn't be commenting at all. the mugshot comment was probably as far as he should go. he should not have his fingers, his hands, or his words anywhere near this. let the criminal justice system play out. both at the federal level, the state level, and even in the civil courts. let that process proceed unimpeded in any way by the wh

i was having a conversation with tim ryan, the former congressman, this weekend.s saying maybe this is time for the president to start talking about this in a fuller way, talk about the seriousness of this case, laying out to the public. he's shied away from it. i know the white house has shied away from it. at some point he's going to have to talk about this more, isn't he? >> one thing i can tell you from having worked for president biden closely for a very long time is he takes the separation of the justice department and the courts from the white house and the executive branch incredibly seriously. it's something he believes is foundational and critical to our government to be able to function. there's the question of the actual criminal proceedings, which the president will not touch and has not touched. and then there's the political strategy. and i think what you saw from president biden during the campaign in 2020 and as you see now is the campaign apparatus is going to continue to draw a really clear contrast. they are going to make clear these are the st

similar to what you saw on stage last night, like jd vance in ohio, beat well-spoken candidates like tim ryanon where it's not a sense of what goes on. keep in mind, in 2020, if 24,000 votes had changed from joe biden to donald trump, 24,000 in three states, donald trump would be president of the united states of america. yes, the republicans are out of step. yes, they sound wacky. yes, they are trying to be mini me of donald trump or creating their own crazy stuff. but this is not going to be an election that's going to be -- where we are all -- you look at the polls. the majority are with the democrats on guns or with the democrats or reproductive freedom or the climate. it's decided by a few thousand votes in a few states. we can't forget that in the course of this, that this is not going to be a blowout election. it's going to be an incredibly close election when we get down to it next november. >> matt, this is the longest you have spoken without saying the d word for democracy. i'm going to guess -- correct me if i have this wrong -- that your advice would be for joe biden to run like d

last fall, former representative tim ryan, the democratic candidate who lost the senate race to j.d.katie paris, the founder of a group what organizes suburban women voters for democrats said she saw voters who wouldn't normally have turned into the election in the summer on an obscure political process get engaged. abortion she said snaps them to attention. there is constant evidence of how personal she said. it's the perfect case study. i wonder for you, as someone who is familiar with watching those numbers roll in on election night, how does it feel to see voters show up like this in the middle of summer, on an off election year, for as they said, something that could seem like a process question? >> in ohio there is no such thing as an offyear election. we have elections over year. but the sad part is the secretary of state said the quiet part out loud. and he made this issue 1 about abortion. and what we learned and what we witnessed from the victory of this very critical election, which they -- the state legislature deemed they would no longer have the special elections in aug
