arkansas senator tom cotton. senator cotton, great to be with you again. you know what's interesting is that you get these whistleblower reports. we see this in some of the messaging of generals and others or faces for television and commentary. and we wonder if, in fact, we're preparing everyone to know what to do with pr. but when it comes to dealing with the chinese communist party or iran or russia, that they really won't know what to do. >> can you fill us in here? tammy? it's a real problem. it doesn't just distract from the training focus that our young men and women in uniform need. it's those divisions among them as well. you know, i wore that uniform years ago, and i can tell you the colors that mattered to me and my soldiers, my superiors, my subordinates, was not white. it wasn't black. it wasn't brown . it was the red white, blue that we all wore on our shoulder and that we had all taken oath to defend. and we were battle buddies irrespective of our race. it is also contributed to a severe recruiting and retention crisis in our military as wel

senator tom cotton, the author of only the strong has campaigned for herschel walker and he joins usay after thanksgiving. senator, good morning to you. >> hey, steve, it's good to be on with you, happy thanksgiving. >> carley: you too. >> steve: so far so good, plenty of leftovers today. what does it say to you, that president obama, who is a big star in the democrat party is invited. joe biden, maybe not? >> well, i think it's notable reminder that joe biden's policies remain very unpopular across the country and especially in places like georgia, where families are struggling to make ends meet. probably going to have to trim their sales for their christmas gift-giving budget. worried about crime in their streets and our southern border. barack obama remains the most popular and powerful figure within the democratic party. in some way joe biden remains his understudy and rung his third term. it's not surprising the democrats are deploying former president obama. i would rather have on our side governor brian kemp, the most popular and successful elected leader in georgia and i know

tom cotton. of the things from the report says the biden administration's divisive rhetoric and propaganda continue to bring down the military's already low recruitment numbers. it is irresponsible and very dangerous to allow them to continue. does it track with what you've been following? >> it does, dana, no question. we established our own tip line last year and flooded with hundreds of instances of inappropriate training sessions or other kinds of commentary or misplaced priorities in our military. i raised this with military leadership and tried to address it and i write about it in my book only the strong. the liberal progressives have an effort to neuter the military not just by cutting the budget but engaging in left wing social engineering. a lot of progressives seem to worry more about training social justice warriors than warriors trained to kill or whether drill sergeants are teaching the right pronouns rather than tactics. it is dangerous for them to put them in the fight unprepared

. >> senator scott, thank you for being with us very joining us i arkansas senator tom cotton. an instance where you had a big problem in arkansas with voting but yet we have the same problems and the same states almost every year. why is that? >> it is astonishing, as you said. the people of arizona, the people of nevada frankly, the people of america deserve bette when and in arkansas, you're right, but we haven't had crumb with voting. we're about the same size as nevada we got all of our votes and on election night. every time you with the statehouse rate that is divided by four votes, fits almost ever other race is called on electio night. in florida, three size the time of arizona seven times the size of nevada. >> i don't live there yet. >> going. >> they're fast. >> it is amazing that we still have these states that take weeks to count their votes for it i was out last week on the west coast campaigning with lak masters they both told me they were worried the race wouldn't be called by this weekend and i guess they were prophets on tha question. this is not something th

senator tom cotton went at it with a cbs anchor.hed paul pelosi said throw the book at a sail lant. get tough on crime. throw the book that tried to assassinate justice brett kavanaugh. stop with agitators protesting outside of justices's home. that is if in violation of federal law. stop heated rhetoric. senator tom cotton going to the steps of the supreme court, brett kavanaugh would not know what hit i am if he issued abortion rulings chuck schumer disagrowth wit. the president will make a speech in half hour. the voters saying tone down the rhetoric. we need peace. stop it with the vitriol pouring out. your final word. >> that is exactly what i think every sane legislator and person has been calling for, tone it down. we should condemn violence no matter who is saying it. but what we're seeing is a ratcheting up of that rhetoric. where he is giving that speech, union station, my husband, who is a firefighter and medic, had a homeless man basically ambush him not too long ago in that very spot. i find it ironic doing it from a sp

for instance under tom cotton during the confirmation hearing for the now atf director, asked him, tellassault weapon is for the atf director could not describe what in the salt weapon is yet they want to ban it. what how can you ban something you cannot describe what it is customer give joe biden say wants to ban semi automatic automatic weapons which is handguns, rifles, the list goes on. then he says like a 9-millimeter could blow your lungs out of your body deciding impossible for 9-millimeter gun. the problem is show these people like joe biden's probably never shot a gun for they have no idea what they're talking about who want to push policies on law-abiding americans who know it they talk about it and abide by the law. i am sick of all the lies and smearing of law-abiding americans like myself in and out you own guns to pre- >> it is amazing. i don't know of any other topic or the dumber you are about the topic the louder your voice. obviously get spread around by the media. jackie, is also struck by the tone he took. it doesn't sell his trying to win over friends in this argume

i agree with tom cotton, stop fights from there.nd you know how many times anthony fauci has been wrong, and owned up to it. he has been wrong a lot and never owned up to it. he would change course and never said i was wrong here. anthony fauci was a scientist, in his lane he had no problem. when he was never meant to head up a task force, a coronavirus task force and the control of it, telling us shut down schools, not have thanksgiving, wear two masks, he's having the cdc director wear goggles, and beginning of the pandemic, it's not going to be a problem, and to wear masks, masks are a false sense of security, the next thing of course you should wear masks. he has is a video of folly's he does not want to own up to. >> sandra: and part of his share well message on political divisions. listen. >> when i see people in this country because of the divisiveness in our country of not getting vaccinated for reasons that have nothing to do with public health but have to do because of divisiveness and ideological differences. as a physici

tom cotton i don't think will be the rule here.nk you're going to have mike pence and maybe, you know, former secretary of state pompeo and desantis, a lot of people and i think some of them will go ahead and take the plunge. >> and hutchinson who was on our air recently all but announced governor of arkansas term limited maybe chris christie, the former governor of new jersey was a trump ally. this is a problem. you hit it exactly right, trump has always been a plurality candidate. he has a bulletproof plurality but he has never -- in the primaries in 2016 he never commanded a majority supporting the party in the end. by the way, not that i'm a fan of ron desantis but he's done something donald trump has never done, he got more votes than the democrat. trump has never done that and never will because he's a minority candidate. a plurality candidate for a fanatically committed fringe. they would be committed -- >> let's bring in real quick mike pence. his -- this is happening at the same time that mike pence is about to kick off a

senator tom cotton is here to tell us how this informs our national democratic policy. >> when i read what it took for yellowstone to be here, i realized this was a story that i suddenly wanted to share an yellowstone look the same today as they described in these journals. one hundred and fifty years ago, no way. i'm walking in the shadow of the pioneers following the trail. shefi perfect. just perfect. a come on right with that one up around the bend. i want to see what they saw. i want to see what changed. okay, here we go ahead. and i got my feet, man. the world doesn't come together like this. very often, but when he does, the results can be extraordinary. catarrh is committed to that idea, growing its potential as a partner investor and innovator with possibilities unlimited in rewards that are priceless. let the world play and become part of our story. >> hi, i'm mike huckabee, former governor of arkansas, and i'm here today to tell you about a hidden health crisis currently affecting nearly every american sleep deprivation. and that's why you need to know about relaxium sleep.

he is gearing up to announce a wte house bid on maaretbrennan asked arkansas republican senator tom cotton whether trump should lead the gop after the midterms failed to bring the red wave the party anticipated. >> when any party is out of power as republicans are now, we don't have a single leader but we have other important leaders as well like the victors i just mentioned earlier like kemp in georgia and desantis in florida. >> reporter: several key races could help determine the shape of the new congress. though democrats have a path, cbs news estimates republicans maintain an edge in clinching control of the house. cristian benavides, cbs news, miami. >> cbs news election tracker still hasn't called 11 house races, and democrats need to win eight of them for a majority while republicans only need to secure four more to take over the house. >>> well, house speaker nancy pelosi said the attack on her husband may have age flounced midterm voters who were tired of political violence. >> so many have said i'm going to be sure to vote because this has gone too far. but anyway, he is -- surr

joining us now with more is arkansas senator tom cotton . here you watch in your great state of arkansas, you have a pretty good system of voting there. no problems. i've never heard a single instance where you had a big problem in arkansas. with voting, but yet we have the same problems in the same states almost every year. >> why is it's astonishing, sean, as you said, the people of arizona, the people of nevada, frankly, the people of america won control of congress is in the deserve a lot better than what the leaders of those state has delivered in arkansas. you're right. we have not had problems with voting. we're about the same size in nevada. we got all our votes in on election night. sure. every now then you have, as we have a state house races divided by four votes. so that still is in the balance. but almost every other race called on election night. or look at where you live in florida. florida is three times the size of arizona. it's seven times the size of nevada. somehow they don't live there to sen. marco rubio. but i will be
