here in washington all political persuasions haven't met their words either.w they deemed them unqualified intellect, experience and and warned the senate not to miss this opportunity to put such a strong advocate for decency and stability on the nation's highest court. so mr. president, let's not lose sight of the opportunity before us. this process has been ruled by fear and anger and underhanded gamesmanship for too long. it is time for us to stand up to this kind of thing. thing. the oa to the american people not to be intimidated by these tactics. we owe it to the american people tproof that you are innocent until proven guilty. it's the senate that is on trial. what kind of image will be conveyed to the public. can we be scared by all these people rampaging through the holes crossing members and coming to their homes. are we going to allow this to happen? in this country? we will not pretend that it takes away the basic fairness every american deserves. we will not be hoodwinked by those who try hard to smear this good man and dragged him through the mud. when that didn't work they t

act called upon the senate to not confirm judge kavanaugh, basically on the argument that he was unqualified to be elevated to the supreme court. one of the things to remember is aside from smarts you have to show judicial temperament, and everything he did showed he did not have that temperament. >> thank you for coming on the show. i want to thank all our guests and panelists who have been with us. craig melvin, you have a lot to unpack. the final vote will move forward now on judge brett kavanaugh's confirmation to the supreme court. >>> hallie, thank you. good morning to you. craig melvin here at msnbc headquarters in new york city. we are glued to the floor of the u.s. senate just a few moments ago as hallie indicated there, judge brett kavanaugh passing that key hurdle for confirmation to the supreme court. slim vote, 51-49 on that procedural vote. three of the four key senators voting to end debate and proceed to a final vote. collins, flake, mansion, all yes. senator lisa murkowski, though, a no. remember, though, this is the first of two big votes and there

but wilbur ross, peter navarro are unqualified for their positions if involved in trade policy >> ylanget a take from you on what members of congress might be listening for. you saw paul ryan tweeting earlier he would be watching for more details on dairy in particular, but in the past we have seen president trump after a lot of rhetoric in negotiations, then make nice and kind of open his arms and say everything is great now. is that the sort of thing members of congress might be listening for, others around washington, to see how the president perhaps ties a bow around some ofthe rougher edge of the negotiations? >> reporter: i think one thing is clear, that the president's hard ball negotiating strategy is playing well amongst republican base. president trump was at a rally in west virginia over the weekend in which he said, you know, my strategy is working everybody loves me because of what i've done for the steel industry, and the aluminum industry he got major applause from his base at a rally for those statements i think that republicans are taking that to heart they've been car

sotomayor points out, the phrase when the alien is released, they go hunting around back to the unqualifiedeffective date provision for section 1226c. which says, it applies to aliens released after october 8, 1998. that leads to a further anomaly, the third anomaly which, as judge barrett explained in his opinion, -- the transition. rule again, which is meant to be an intermediate step up, is less broad. excuse me, is broader than the permanent rule in section 1226c. >> and another anomaly, maybe you can -- let's take two people, identical crimes. in a through d. one of them gets immediately with no bail hearing. the other, does not get picked up until two years later. bail hearing. as far as the alien is concerned, these two identically situated. and yet, one gets the benefit of a bail hearing and the other doesn't. why does that make sense? >> your honor, the person who is detained immediately, falls under congresses scheme. congress provided that if you are within a through d and you're taken into custody, when you're released from the criminal custody, you're not needed for witness pro

he is unqualified and it is gross nepotism and it is an embarrassment he has any power at all, much lesss critical area of the world. >> he's cultivated this close relationship that he thought was going to be beneficial to this role and this administration ask now we're seeing they're trying to backtrack off that now that they're in the spotlight and even president trump is getting really frustrated by the news coverage of this and the idea that he and jared kushner have this cozy relationship with such a repressive regime. that's the problem they're facing here. but as far as pompeo, we're seeing a lot of scrutiny on him, someone who has been trusted as this tough guy and now he's the one seen there smiling with him today. he couldn't even answer the very basic of whether or not this reporter is dead or alive, saying that they didn't want to talk about facts, they being the saudis, and neither did he. raises a lot of questions since that's the guy coming back to brief president trump and other white house officials on what's happening. >> everybody stay with us. there's much more news r

this is the most unqualified nominee for the supreme court in decade and we believe that, given he couldas been widely accused of sexual assault in that seat. thousands of us were assault in that seat. thousands of us were protesting the nomination. when you say he is most unqualified, you don't mean in career terms because he has obviously had a strong career with that background but you're talking about the sexual assault allegations? notjust that for that he had lied under oath 31 times. he has had endorsements from several organisations. this is someone several organisations. this is someone who several organisations. this is someone who seems several organisations. this is someone who seems wholly unequipped ethically and morally to hold this seat. what was the mood like out on the protest? indications are that it looks likely he will get the nomination. how would that go down? not well. i think people are very angry and we are going to see that anger in november. come hell or high water, there will be some kind of price to pay for this. sarah elliott, you are chair of republicans 0

and regardless of innocence or guilt, kavanaugh has shown himself to be unqualified, to remain impartial as a judge. furthermore, the backlash of there being any question of guilt regarding rape accusations is too great for him to successfully fulfill the duties of that position. it will cause a division between voters that will likely never be healed. speaking as both a concerned voter and rape survivor, there's no legitimate reason that we cannot find another candidate for this job. if he is appointed despite these allegations, it will be all but impossible for a rape survivor to ever feel safe in the u.s. again. how could we, if an accused rapist is presiding as a member of the highest court in the country? she makes a point. there are many other people who could be considered to be brought forward. why this individual? why this individual who demonstrated such partisanship? why this individual who bent and, yes, broke the truth many a time before the committee? why this individual who wrote offensive, mocking, accusing, disgraceful things attacking a woman in his yearbook? why this i

unqualified, incompetent, incoherent, weak, not confident. yes, i realize my speech is a bit unconventional. these phrases have the power to effecho in our minds. these phrases place limitations on our capacities. and they set narrow definitions restricting us. but we have the power to defy that. we can resist and rise. ultimately, we are our own greatest this year, i relearned how to speak. a mundane skill. effortless for even children. see, i have had a stutter since i was 3. passed down from my great-grandfather and an inspirational man and the founder of one of the largest companies in the gulf. he was not defined nor confined by what many call an impediment. neither am i. this summer, i decided to face my personal challenges and take control. so i took a few days off, flew to canada and took part in an intensive speech program. we learned the breathing technique and to practice speaking daily, treating it as a sport. a mundane skill. yet something that i and 1% of the world's population have to practice every single day. what doesn't kil

student mentors were unqualified, and at one point one of his courses didn't even have an instructor.00 e-book. this is supposed to be a program written by one of the greatest -- >> tech minds of all time. >> exactly. it's broken, it's not working in places. lots of times there are just hyp hyperlinks to documents, wikipedia. >> reporter: doerr talked to other employees with similar complaints about the program. "i do not understand why we can't get good quality for what we paid for," reads one message. the lessons are extremely flawed, says another. >> it is drive, drive, drive the sales. >> reporter: tim wionski was one of the enrollment counselors charged with signing up prospective students. >> what do people say when you ask them if they know who steve wozniak is? >> a lot didn't know who he was, and then you get them excited when they realize who he was. >> reporter: they ratcheted up the pressure to enroll students. >> my job was on the line. >> reporter: so even when you had questions and kwamqualms ab the program, you're pushing people through. >> absolutely. >> reporter: he
