this is unconscionable and undemocratic. before the republicans and democrats voted on obamacare,tte the senate held 100 committee hearings, roundtables and senat walk-throughs. the final senate bill included 147 republican amendments. a the majority leader has missed an opportunity for political and moral leadership on one of the most important issues we face. senator mcconnell should have an been honest and open process including senate committee hearings. with full public participation and a chance for patients to tell congress how this proposal impacts them. not hidden meanings or limited debate and the simple majority vote. americans deserve an open process from their elected leaders. that is why i introduced a bill last week with my democratic act colleagues called the no hearing no vote act. this would require a public committee hearing for any legislation that goes through the fast-track budget reconciliation process including the trump care legislation. members of congress were elected to improve lives, not destroy

julius caesar can can be read as a warning parable for those who try to fight for democracy by undemocratic means. political theater is as old as human civilization. a sophisticated play by shakespeare that actually presents caesar, or trump, in a mixed, somewhat favorable light is something to be discussed, not censored, and certainly not blamed for the actions of a single deranged shooter. i recently gave a speech at bucknell university in which i criticized america's mostly liberal colleges for silencing views they deemed offensive, arguing that it was bad for the students and the country. the same holds for conservatives who try to mount campaigns to defund art they deem offensive. do conservatives now want central park to be their own special safe space? i for one will keep arguing that liberals and conservatives should open themselves to all kinds of opinions and ideas that differ from their own. instead of trying to silence, excommunicate and punish, let's look at the other side and try to listen, engage, and when we must, disagree. for more go to cnn.com/fareed and read my "washingt

[applause] >> reporter: critics say the play's creators doth protest too much and this adds to a growing tide of ideological anger. kelly? kelly: the news continues at the top of the hour with gregg jarrett and arthel neville. julie: yeah. and i'll see you on the fox report at 7 p.m. eastern. won't do that. no. you can leave worry behind when liberty stands with you™. liberty mutual insurance. ykeep you sidelined.ng that's why you drink ensure. with 9 grams of protein and 26 vitamins and minerals. for the strength and energy to get back to doing... ...what you love. ensure. always be you. arthel: hello, everyone, welcome to a brand new hour inside america's news headquarter

that's undemocratic on its face and a blatant violation of the constitution.a pretty blunt statement. it kind of sends a message that obviously while many liberals in the country have been fired up opposing president trump, you've seen a relatively temporate response, i would say, from senate democrats, aside from using language that accuses the president of something of this magnitude that could positive tebl -- potentially have ramifications down the line. >> kasie hunt, pete williams, hans nichols, thank you very much. let's go to our panel now. nick watergate, ari melber, and ned price is a former assistant to president obama, analyst and national security analyst and political reporter for the "new york times" and an msnbc contribut contributor. guys, thank you so much for joining us. it seems like the president may be building a case against rosenstein. ari? >> so it does. these tweets sometimes are revealing. the r&b singer of the weekend say, i can hear the streets that you keep when you're talking in your sleep. >> or on your tweets. >> or on your twe

that's undemocratic on its face and a blatant violation of the president's oath of office." joining me to share reporting and insights, phil mattingly,'die flil im"the washington post," carlin dermersian "the washington post" andcnn's jeff zeleny. we have a presidential tweet this morning at 6:30, tweeting when it "the make america great again agenda is doing very well despite the distraction of the witch hunt. many new jobs, high business enthusiasm, massive regulation cuts, 36 new legislatives bills signed, great new supreme court justice and infrastructure, health care and tax cuts in the works." we've seen something of the president, white house and republican strategy in terms of dealing with russia in that cloud that's hanging over this presidency. how do trump's tweets fit into that larger strategy? >> he's clearly trying to discredit this investigation by calling it a witch hunt, but the reality is it's very real. can he call it fake news, a phony investigation but his white house realizes it's real, republicans certainly realize it's real. so the message he sent out

that's undemocratic on its face and a blatant violation of the president's oath of office. pretty rough words from her. she doesn't normally use language like that. do you concur with her sentiment? >> i think everybody just needs to keep watching this but take a deep breath, too, because the fbi is going to do its job. the fbi doesn't sit around all day and read tweets. the fbi is going to do their job, mueller is going to do his job, and she's on the committee with me, the senate intelligence committee is doing its job. the best will happen for the country, the president, and it's a very thorough and credible investigation that reveals everything. that's the best thing that can happen, i really believe that, including for the president. that's what's going to happen, i believe. >> this week alone, i think he referred to the russian investigation as a witch hunt, i want to say six or seven times. that's not embracing the investigation, and that's not adding to the credibility of the investigation. that seems to be an attempt to undermine the credibility of the investigatio

that's undemocratic on its face and a blatant violation of the president's oath of office. a fellow member of the senate he intel committee marco rubio said the investigation continues. >> from every pronouncement we have seen he feels very strongly he did nothing wrong, and h wants people to say that because he feels very strongly about it. i don't think that's a mystery. he is expressing himself in that way. that said, that in no way is going to impede any of his work from continuing. it's going to happen. you have never seen a single member of law enforcement or the administration come forward and say anything different. this is going to move forward. >> and despite what some of the president's allies have implied, another member of the intel committee angus king of maine says all parts of the investigation are active. >> i can say categorically that the collusion and cooperation aspect of the investigation is not over, and as far as that goes, i would say we're 20% into it just to throw a number at it. a lot of people have said when do you think you'll be done? maybe th

what i find impermissible, undemocratic to the intellectual character of the college i attend is the president's decision to disinvite a speaker solely on the basis of his inflammatory remarks about race. >>> congresswoman on the opioid crisis in the u.s. >> i was sitting next to the denver public librarian and i said what are the issues you're facing here at the denver public library and i thought she would say something like cybersecurity or access to books, she said, you know, we have people overdosing in the library every day and we need to get our librarians so that they can give it to people who have overdosed at the denver public library. >>> and senator john mccain at the confirmation hearing of deputy defense nominee patrick shan in a han. >> we now have an executive from one of the five major corporations that has cor raled 90% of our defense budgets and on one of the major issues that this committee has had hearings about, has reported out our bill and you want to find out more information, not a good beginning. not a good beginning. do not do that again, mr. shanahan or i

if we can't call attention to undemocratic attention, that's not good.ave free speech, spirited discussion, we need not to make it personal or demonize people. i mean, members of congress, that's one of the concerns that i have, again, with the media, is that members of congress on all stripes are caricatured as fools or demagogues or terrible people and they pay a price for that. i don't think you understand what it takes to be a public servant today. >> a robust democracy needs a free media, needs a robust media. >> yes. >> that's what we're doing responsibly, accurately. there are elements out there that aren't doing that, but we certainly are. jane sanders, as usual, a good conversation. thank you so much for joining us. >> thanks, wolf. bye-bye. >>> just ahead, a pennsylvania courtroom awaits a decision in the bill cosby trial. the jury said it was deadlocked and the judge asked jurors to keep deliberating. we'll have the latest when we come back.
