i always sit by tim scott. tim is getting older so it was hard for him to get up as often as he did. i thought i was at a wedding for part of the night but a the democrats were dressed in white. i thought president trump, you know, his message, dana, was consistent in principle with the platform he ran on, but the tone was very persuasive and i think even his critics begrudgingly this morning are saying he did a good job. >> i think that's true across the board. one of the things that was a little different was to see formerly or maybe conservative fiscal hawks applauding for some things that president trump did campaign on. one of those is something though i think conservatives could get behind and that was paid family leave. let's listen to the president. >> my administration wants to work with members of both parties to make child care accessible and affordable to help ensure new parents that they have paid family leave. [ applause ] >> have you seen an evolution or do you hear an evolution in some conservati

tonight, we join the washington press foundation annual dinner with remarks from tim scott and louisiana congressman cedrick wilson. and later, we hear from the president trump's choice for director of

. >> now you saw congressman richmond motion to senator tim scott. the congressman's comment came after senator scott talked about the history of the couch in the 1990s. seemingly referring to the bill clinton monica lewinsky scandal. the louisiana gop is demanding an apology calling the comments sexist, demeaning and deeply offensive. the at is calling on him to do the same. he released a statement saying his joke was misinterpreted. >>> kellyanne conway is opening up about the pressures of working in the world of politics. in an interview for cbs sunday morning, nora o'donnell asked if she's considered making a political run. >> it's not just the fire in your belly. you have to have the bile in your throat. this isy think many good women do not run for office. >> bile in your throat? >> just to swallow so much. the country looks at you through this negative lens and corruption and cronyism and you're lying and you want money and you're motivated by power. >> she also explains why she gave up money, privacy and time with her family in new jersey to

but the republicans have an opportunity to give senator tim scott, congresswoman from utah, the firstrism, it's just time to give way to new genation of conservatives of all colors. kennedy: we shall see how mainstream'has actually gone. speaking of smoking weed, mainstream pot is so mainstream that it could put a dent in booze profits. according to -- and this always very reliable source. source, 20% of american beer drinkers said if weed were legal in their states, they would purchase marijuana over:beer. and the american beer industry makes $100 billion a year in retail sales. so should bud and miller be worried about the bud being bought by a guy named miller? glenn, how mainstream is marijuana now? >> we are all beer drinkers. i think you have seen a lot of states decriminalize or make medical marijuana flel their states. i think that changes the dynamic quite a bit. the stigma and possibility of a criminal prosecution probably kept a lot of people thinking i'll go with the beer. but given the choice what this is about. we are seeing in the numbers, not just survey you cite. you

soke senator tim scott and louisiana congressman cedrick richmond.that starts at 9:05 eastern and you can see it here live on c-span2. earlier today, the senate confirmed ryan zinke for interior. we are expecting a vote on dr. carson tomorrow morning live here on c-span2. right now, senator brown on dr. carson's nomination. >> rising in support of dr. carson for secretary of housing and urban development. but i can't resist -- when i listen to my friends senator cornyn and i like and respect him. i mean that. it is always said here but i actually do. i am amused by the term of structionism when this president sat a hundred yards down the hall speaking last night and still hasn't put any legislative os

foundation hold its annual congressional dinner with npr host diane ream, greta van susteren, and senator tim scott attending. >> earlier this evening the gridiron club elberton you want gender in washington dc -- held

concerned about the different races and what's going on in this society, he would go and talk to senator tim scott, representative mia love and congressman will hurd, go on a listening tour ben carson is going on. it's a distraction. he needs to focus on things that are really relevant today which is repealing and replacing obamacare, focusing on how to get more jobs for his constituents in iowa. not these sidebar conversation bz h about his warped view of race. >> last word? >> i think mr. trump has to say he's the president of all people. people attempting to come as immigrants are being left out precisely because he's thinking about people who are undocumented americans. finally, donald trump helped create this context. he's the one whose sort of policy initiatives as president and policy proposals as candidate have led to the type of environment where steve king feels entirely comfortable saying these things and that's whats' really dangerous. >> i know you disagree. we're out of time. >> 100% disagree a. >> i see your thought bubble. i appreciate both of you examine your perspectives. >>> com

anybody know tim scott? i didn't ask you if you liked him. i asked if you know him.senator. he says he's been stopped eight or ten times by the police. i've been up there 20 years and i've never been stopped by the police. i think that's your point, isn't it? yeah. so here's the deal with policing. it's got to be tough on a good day. we need to be sensitive to the fact that communities feel under siege by the cops. we need to be sensitive to the idea that the cops feel under seei siege and find some process to was in the law, but i've never been stopped. { crowd yelling } >> i've never been stopped because i'm a short white guy. the cops seem not to be stopping me but they do seem to be stopping tim. so let's talk about the cops for a minute. i've been a prosecutor most of my life. i've dealt with cops. there's nothing worse than a bad cop. you know why a bad cop is a bad deal? because they have got a badge in a gun. there's nothing better than a good cop. [ cheers and applause ] >> so the bottom line is i hope we will take a harder look at this. i'm sorry, i thought

the conversations that took place on monday and tuesday with various people on the hill appreciate tim scottate you a great deal. marco rubio was there. am rosa has three degrees from hbcus. a doctorate from howard university. it was the start of a conversation. i'm not negative -- >> it wasn't quite what you expected, i think. we'll take a quick break. we'll continue this conversation on the other side. do stay close. or is it your allergy pills? holding you back break through your allergies. introducing flonase sensimist. more complete allergy relief in a gentle mist you may not even notice. using unique mistpro technology, new flonase sensimist delivers a gentle mist to help block six key inflammatory substances that cause your symptoms. most allergy pills only block one. and six is greater than one. break through your allergies. new flonase sensimist. ♪ the markets change... at t. rowe price... our disciplined approach remains. global markets may be uncertain... but you can feel confident in our investment experience around the world. call us or your advisor... t. rowe price. invest with

bakari a few minutes before the comment and at same event senator tim scott jokingly said, anybody seen on people, you remember the '90s, that couch has had a lot worse things. come on now. you say both men crossed line from comedy to -- >> regard ms of what you think of kellyanne conway or or lack of affinity for the truth or propensity to tell falsehoods, i think disrespectful and crossed line for both. i will say to their faces, i'm friends with them and think both will tell you in hindsight, shouldn't have said. conversation that shouldn't have been said. i'm not any better than them. i've made the same mistakes and goal is to make sure my daughter and wife look at me proudly every time i come in. this is the time you say sexism against anyone -- >> i don't think that comment would have been made about a man. >> had that been steve bannon or jared kushner or anybody else in the administration, no one making comment about that. inappropriate for both of them frankly to make such a thing. this is not late night shtick comedy. "snl" can have their way with kellyanne, that's part of bei

. >> i also want to thank senator tim scott for joining us today, a friend of mine, a great, great senatorrolina. i like the state of south carolina. i like all those states where i won by double, double, double digits, you know, those states. >> stephen: yes, he loves those states where he won by double, double, double digits. but he seems to hate the country where he lost by millions, millions, millions of votes. ( cheers and applause ) he's still president! he's still president. doesn't mean he's not president. he's still president. he's just a loser president. ( laughter ) now, the department of homeland security today told us how they're going to enforce the president's executive orders on immigration, and it cannot come soon enough, folks, because just last week, hunters in texas were wounded in a gunfight near the border when, they say, immigrants illegally crossed in from mexico, converging on their camp in the middle of the night, and tried to rob them. both men are recovering, but it's an unbelievable story... in that you should not believe it because it was all a lie. ( laughter

reporter: that's the simple idea behind solutions sundays, an initiative started by two senators, tim scottkford from oklahoma. >> i started asking people i ran into, have you ever had a person of another race in your home for dinner? and i had very few people that could answer yes. >> reporter: have you experienced the issue -- either maybe with yourself or with your constituents, african-americans, that just have never had a white person in their house? >> and vice versa, as often as anything else. for me, it's hard to hate what you know. it's so simple. >> reporter: so, these republicans issued a challenge to their constituents. invite a family of a different race over for a sunday meal. >> what their continuing to tell me is a sense of joy and relief and a transition they personally experienced something around the dinner table. >> it's almost -- maybe this is too strong, but self-imposed segregation. >> absolutely. the funny thing for me, it's surprising how many people come back and say, they're just like me. well, what did you expect? i mean -- >> reporter: we took a break from washi

that's why tim scott and others denounce the comments. but calling somebody a racist when you don't know their heart is something i do not do. that liberals like to do, but i won't do it. >> do we know the statement was racist. if you talk about an america where we're not concerned about other people's babies, it's hard for me to see how these republicans say they believe all lives matter when they're only concerned about certain lives, apparently white christian heterosexual lives. >> liberals talk about all lives matter but they did not stand up for right of the unborn. let's be fair. >> but you're the ones that say -- liberals aren't the ones that are saying it. that's what the hypocrisy is here. >> there is no hypocrisy. >> yes. it's time for the republican party and people like paris, and i think margaret is starting to do this and others, but it's time for the republican party to represent something more than donald trump, or they're going down with the ship that is donald trump. >> free enterprise, smaller government, there is a ho

one of the things i've said at one point with a crowd over a thousand, tim scott and i at one of thes we held. i said, look, you guys need to realize you've already won on this. the debate has changed simply on repeal to then repeal and replace, and now built into any of the different proposals that will come out from the republican side is the notion of staying on your parents' plan until the age of 26. this notion of preexisting condition, notion of no caps. those things are boiled into the discussion already. i think from a conservative standpoint, the opposite side of the equation at times what i hear at these town hall meetings is this notion of not creating an open checkbook. the bill is presently configured and there is already, in essence, a discussion on this at the committee level, has an open-ended commitment with regard to further medicaid expansion for the next three years. i think that could be disastrous. it could create a rush for the door with a big taxpayer liability coming with it. >> okay. you mentioned no caps. you mentioned staying until the age of 26 and preexi

anyone know tim scott? i didn't ask if you liked him. i ask if you know him. he's african-american senator. he says he's been stopped eight or 10 times by the capitol hill police. i've been up there 20 years, i've never been stopped by the capitol hill police. i think that's your point, isn't it? yeah. so here's the deal with policing. got to be tough on a good day. we need to be sensitive to the fact that communities feel under siege by the cops. we need to be sensitive to the idea that cops feel under siege and find some orderly process to enforce the law. but i've never been stopped. >> you're white! sen. graham: if you'll just listen to the end of this. i've never been stopped because - i'm a short white guy. the cops seem not to be stopping me but they do seem to be stopping tim. so let's talk about the cops for a minute. i've been a prosecutor most of my life. i dealt with cops. and there's nothing worse than a bad cop. you know why a bad cop is a bad deal? because they've got a badge and a gun. there's nothing better than a good cop. so the bottom line

anybody know tim scott? i didn't ask if you liked him. i asked if you know him. he's african-american senator. he says he's been stopped eight or ten times by the capitol hill police. i've been up there 20 years and i've never been stopped by the capitol hill police. i think that's your point, isn't it? yes. so here's the deal with policing. it has got to be tough on a good day. we need to be sensitive to the fact that communities feel under siege by the cops, we need to be sensitive to the idea that the cop feel under siege, and find some orderly process to enforce the law, but i never have been stopped. because -- if you listen to the end of the question, i never been stopped because i'm a short white guy and the cops are -- the cops seem not to be stopping me, but they do seem to be stopping tim. so let's talk about the cops for a minute. i've been a prosecutor most of my life. i've dealt with the cops and there is is nothing worse than a bad cop. you know why a bad cop is a bad deal? because they got a badge and a gun. there is nothing better than a good cop.

as they're continuing to drive it, i had occasion last night, stuart, to have dinner with senator tim scottm new york state, very small group, maybe 15 of us and they all said -- i said i was coming on air to see you today. they all send their very best. stuart: that is very nice to hear. >> i asked them that question because i knew this was our topic. they all said it is well within their constituencies. ed cox surprised me as he travels the state, upper new york is a wasteland. he said he feels that optimism. stuart: you now that's interesting because upstate new york, you're right, it's a wasteland. i'm very familiar with it. it is a very sad story. >> yep. stuart: but he says picking up, signs of movement. >> he said he feels that as he travels the state and he talks to people in the state he definitely feels optimism. i can tell you within our about 200,000 meals a week, a week, there is a sense of, but again around tax reform. and the elimination of the mandates in health care, not pulling headlight care apart completely. obviously that is not going to happen. like eating an elephant

tim really trying to bring this together. >> right. and he didn't go to a state with one of those strong governors. he went down to florida governor, rick scottdid not expand medicaid in this state under obamacare. but as was said, in many other ways, the law is benefitting regular folks in florida, and florida does have many, many retirees in this bill and its scoring and analysis has shown to be -- it's going to have an abject effect on older people, primarily. it's going to -- it's going to help younger, healthier people, who are wealthier, frankly, at the expense of older, sicker people. so no doubt that a lot of florida residents are very concerned with this. you mentioned jacksonville. that's a big military community. there are a lot of people on military health care there. and very affordable, very good health care, paid for by the government. so it's a funny thing that you're hearing sort of this notion that government health care cannot possibly do what it needs to do for the american people when you have a lot -- a large population getting very good government-sponsored health care. >> so kevin, as you are relating just a second ago
