. >> tommy tuberville, a great coach.ou know, his quarterback was named mahomes. he was a great college coach. and i said, how good was he? he said, you don't want to know how good, he made me into a great coach. it's a pretty good quarterback, right? yeah, he was very good. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: now, the part about mahomes being a good quarterback is true. the part about tuberville coaching him and telling that story is not. mahomes never played for tommy tuberville. [ laughter ] he was gone before he got there. mahomes said he doesn't think he's even met tommy tuberville in his life. [ laughter ] why let facts get in the way of perfectly good bull [ bleep ], right?

chair moran: senator tuberville. sen. tuberville: thank you, mr. chairman. i apologize for what has happened to your husband. i had a couple of friends that went through the same situation. terrible outcome. even some were arrested at the v.a. for not having an appointment. and run off of property. it is a terrible mess. how do you communicate with other servicemembers or family that come to you and ask you about your husband's problem? what is that conversation like? ms. marg: i will tell them that any story they have heard about the v.a. is true. when i have heard other people's stories -- when i first heard them i was surprised and shocked that -- like, this must be a one-off situation. my husband has been medically retired since 2015. and it seems like every step along the way it is such a struggle and there has been many times my husband has just felt that he is done. and i tell him he is not. and we just keep fighting. and sometimes it takes going to an outside entity to get help, which i'm incredibly thankful that it exists, but that is ridiculous. se

in fact, one more topic to the discussion today, senator tuberville.nt trump talking about gaza. talking about the united states clearing out gaza and taking hold of gaza, working with other countries in the middle east perhaps saudi arabia and others. private enterprise to rebuild a new gaza. i know you followed this keenly, sir. what can you tell us on that one? >> first of all, positive and saudis not going to take them and going to jordan and going to do something to get them to take a few of them. when you do that, how do you separate the palestinians from hamas? you're just moving one problem to another. president trump trying to clean all this up and no water or electricity. he's looking for a possible way to answer this problem that we have. it's a huge problem, he's the only one that's come up with something different. we'll have to see if he can work through this. steve witkoff talking about this with us at a lunch in and talking about it and help from all the countries around there to try and get a solution to this. not only sanctions being

that's tuberville, right? tuberville. right. except for this time, it actually makes sense.s doing it because he wanted to make some political hay with the trump and maga people. schatz is doing it to prove a point, which is i still have a little bit of power and the power i do have, i'm going to exercise. and we've seen that too, not in congress, but in a place like illinois with jb pritzker. he said, i'm not going to hire anybody who had anything to do with january 6th. democrats have always had an uncomfortable relationship with power. they've been very unwilling to utilize it. they've been very unwilling to do the things they could when they have it. look, they have a history. speaker nancy pelosi always understood it. lbj going back, harry reid, like there are democrats who've understood it. but now you have to say, are you going to bear the consequences of utilizing whatever slivers of power you have? >> so what do you say to people out there? there are voters who feel angered. they feel paralyzed. right now they're saying, i did not vote for elon musk. i don't want th

senator tuberville and he was a great kid to recruit. actually, i don't think.just no one's breaking character. they're staying like very professional. it's not a big deal. never met him. >> they so don't want to get into a fight with trump or the republican party. >> it's just. >> that's really what this is. they're being very polite and taking, i dare say, the high road. >> but is it a fight. >> to just acknowledge that like something didn't happen? >> well, they did, but they did it in a way in which that you don't say that that's not actually true. he was like, well, you recruit a lot. he came back and said, you recruit a lot of people way before they remembered. yeah, i probably talked to him when he was ten. i don't know if he remembers, you know, you're lying. >> there's the truth. and then there's their truth. >> right? >> right. okay, speaking of the truth, kendrick lamar is going to be performing at the halftime. i mean, this i went to the super bowl for the first time last year. it's so crazy to watch it. the halftime show in person as opposed to like

how this has played out this week. >> and tommy tuberville, a great coach.ow, his quarterback was named mahomes. he was a great college coach. >> well i never even coached him. what happened is i recruited him and then i left and went to another school. but i've got to be very good friends with him. >> he did not recruit me. >> at the. >> time, so. >> i don't i don't remember if i ever got to meet him. >> or not. >> i mean. >> wait, this is real life. >> this is real. it's the whole thing is just so ridiculous. oh, this happened actually. no. >> it didn't. no. but the the way in which it's all being said, caitlin is my favorite because it's like that he had a mahomes and tommy. and then here's tommy, senator tuberville and he was a great kid to recruit. actually, i don't think. and just no one's breaking character. they're staying like very professional. it's not a big deal. never met him. >> they so don't want to get into a fight with trump or the republican party. >> it's just. >> that's really what this is. they're being very polite and taking, i dare say

tommy tuberville was with me when pam bondi was sworn in yesterday. >> pam bondi will bring trust back to our department of justice. our justice system. people across the country have been throwing their hands up going what do we do? we don't believe in what's going on. the number one thing we have to do in this country if you are a politician or anybody that has anything to do with our justice system, the people have to believe in what you are doing and why you are doing it. >> harris: senator, the people, okay. what about democrats? they are ready for all-out -- i'm just quoting, a battle, war, the word war was used. not just against the crisis, they are pushing against these changes. >> look, the democrats are pushing against president trump's nominees. i think what i listen to them saying we'll fight. their definition is obstruct, delay and waste very precious time to get this country back on the right course, make sure our institutions are credible and most importantly, undo the devastation and damage based on the crime and the influx of those here that seek to do us harm. this is

tuberville: i will. mr. scott: i will say all those many people in alabama coming to that conclusion, it makes sense to me. you guys are a fine state, you produce national championships. but the beginning place of barbecue and sweet tea, south carolina. mr. tuberville: will the gentleman yield? mr. scott: yes. mr. tuberville: that sounds like a challenge. thank you, mr. president. november 5, 2025, that is the day that the american people sent shock waves to the swamp in d.c. when they overwhelmingly reelected donald john trump as president. they did not just deliver a mandate for mr. trump, they also wanted his america first agenda. i come to the floor today to remind my senate republican colleagues that a critical part of the american first agenda includes prioritizing the safety of our women and girls in shorts and protecting their privacy in bathrooms and locker rooms. i'm here to call for a vote on my legislation s. 9, the protection of women and girls in sports act that would save title 9 and save wome

senators from alabama, katie britt and tommy tuberville, i don't have to tell you, are republicans. anything to say about these nih cuts. >> katie britt has hinted that the cuts should be considered carefully, which is, i. >> guess. >> as good as we can hope for at this point. it was a pretty milquetoast thing. pretty. i mean, i would say. >> a scaredy. cat sort. >> of protest. tommy tuberville, who i would point out has received millions of dollars from to leave public institutions, complains that that we can take no more waste. so he is fully on board with the cuts. >> so? so, vaughn, republican senator of maine susan collins is actually pushing back on this nih cap on the indirect costs. what's she saying? >> right. and all of this comes. let's be clear, chris, before robert f kennedy jr was confirmation vote actually takes place, we anticipate that happening here in the senate later on this week. and susan collins is a republican senator who just a few days ago said that she intends to vote for the nomination of kennedy. yet at the same time, over the weekend, learning about the

. >> and tommy tuberville, a great coach. you know, his quarterback was named mahomes. he was a great college coach. and i said, how good was he? he said, you don't want to know how good. he made me into a great coach. he's a pretty good quarterback, right? yeah, he was very good. >> so senator tommy tuberville of alabama did coach college football at texas tech at one point. but no, he did not coach chiefs quarterback patrick mahomes. whoopsie. another opportunity, of course, to make history on the line this sunday. the eagles the last obstacle standing between the chiefs and a three peat are coy wire is in new orleans for super bowl week. and he caught up with the legendary running back marshall faulk to get his thoughts on the big game. >> you played in this. >> big game. >> you know all. >> about the pressures. >> that come with it from all. >> these superstars. >> patrick mahomes, travis kelce, jalen. >> hurts. >> saquon barkley, all of them. >> they're human. yeah. >> what are the what are the distractions the added pressures that come with this. >> big stage. >>

you see tommy tuberville there. it's not shocking that he would take the side of the administration of jd vance backing him up. but how are republicans explaining this kind of a comment away when it's really clear that vance, who is a lawyer, he went. >> to yale. >> is basically saying the courts don't establish the limits of executive power, except they do. >> yeah. >> i mean, they're essentially brushing this away and trying to minimize and downplay it, while at the same time suggesting that these courts are overstepping. >> themselves. >> and thus they're the ones that are causing the interference here. >> yeah. and then, of course, we have the ongoing confirmation battles that are also showing just the way that people are falling in line. so i think you're right. this was always going to be the test of this congress is there's so much more maga. one of the ways that they are proving that is, as we see federal workers being guided towards a potential buyout, with looming firings also being threatened. you've been

tell me about the meeting because i saw that it tuberville say i've never been in a room product, packeddy there, he never even showed up for w work. bring us inside that room. >> what's beautiful is i was surrounded by people that not only care about their family but willing to fight for the family and call their senators and ask for this confirmation and what robert f kennedy junior represents is our voice. moms for so long been ignored. i took over 400,000 signatures telling them we want the same ingredients you sell at virtually every other country and they ignored us. they told us to get off the lawn and you know what robert f kennedy junior did? that's the first thing i'm going to address when i become secretary of human health services. that is what we need, someone, a politician and elected officials to go for the american people to be the voice and we were there cheering and supporting him because he's taking our issues to the highest level the government and talking about it in a way that we are actually looking at real reform. you saw the red green die band, because the leader

i saw a clip, i struck work outside of tuberville. it's not a great look for ad advice.her than that, a+. >> since we are on the topic of deportation, game we are playing homan kicking everybody out of the country, you're not an expert on criminals which is weird because half of your family is sicilian only want to know which celebrities trump should deport to guantÁnamo bay and give you their gas money. the new game, very high, get most got talent.

joe manchin and nick saban working together to do it along with tommy tuberville.sident has got to get these sides together because it's out of control how much money is floating around certain schools can't compete. certain sports will dissipate. so the president has got got to get a commission together to work out a pay structure for college sports. he loves this stuff. >> carley: clearly he does. he is meeting with jay monahan and tiger woods. >> brian: nick saban making great progress at one point the lawmakers got in each other's way. so we got to set up a payment structure like it's in the nhl. >> lawrence: i think his granddaughter actually kai has a big deal on the table for her golf career as well. >> ainsley: some. >> brian: nil. >> ainsley: pay a million dollars to go to this college. >> brian: i will give you an example they offered -- they are offering quarterbacks if you transfer to my team i will give you $5 million. >> ainsley: right. >> brian: okay. i'm it all for people being paid. can you nag the quarterback north carolina $5 million offer to go

tommy tuberville.s there is there no decency, even among the republican party, to show up and force trump to do these things that they want him to do in some kind of normal order and normal way? and the answer consistently is no. you know, you got the democrats out here, got amy klobuchar out here talking about, well, we're going to work with them on like, why nobody wants you to work with fascists. amy. like don't do that. right. we've got oh, god is on the throne. really? god's on the throne. if so, i can't see him. if god's on the throne, somebody needs to find me the ark of the covenant and call him up and wake him up, because i don't see it. right. but that's what the response is right now. a bunch of platitudes, while they wrote down exactly how they were going to steal power. and they are stealing power. >> okay, so i'm over the hand-wringing as well. i feel like it's kind of those stages of grief, and i kind of feel like we should be appropriately in the anger stage of it. so the question is, i
