earlier today, congressman upton spoke out about his concerns over the threats.me of his other republican colleagues have been facing. >> it's a tough time, and it's so unsettling, you know, this is not what our democracy is about. these physical threats. not only do ourselves but also to our family members. as well as to our staff. it is a sad day in america when this type of stuff, got a better four-letter word for it, but i'll save you, when it happens. >> well, joining me now is illinois congressman mike quigley, a democratic member of the house appropriations and intelligence committees. and as i welcome you, my friend, i mean, really? if you listen to this voice mail, it's just -- it is extraordinary. yet we heard the congressman very graciously call it just so unsettling. but what's your reaction to all of it? i mean, the fact that this is coming from within his own party. >> you know, normally, i would say i work with fred upton on a regular basis, on a bipartisan basis, on great lakes measures, stopping future pandemics. those are just a couple recent on

traitor. >> congressman upton shared that voice mail with cnn.tice the word traitor used over and over which should be no wonder since upton's colleague congresswoman marjorie taylor greene tweeted the phone numbers of those who voted for the infrastructure bill and called them traitors. upton calls the voice mail truly fl frightening for him and his staff. he regrets a bipartisan bill became a political football. >> doing the work of the people becoming something the fringe -- >> most people are not leaving him those types of voice mails. but that one is so truly horrendous. you have to show what's actually going on. >> important to know the mood of some in the country. >>> all right. 38 minutes past the hour. new satellite images revealing china's military has built mock ups of u.s. warships for possible target practice. and new reporting this morning suggests china is rapidly preparing its own military with technology to counter the u.s. let's go live to taipei and bring in cnn's will ripley. nice to see you. it is not unusual for countries to

where do people like liz cheney, fred upton, anthony gonzalez, adam kinzinger get their strength? i think they have inner strength. it is that idea that you are being truthful and faithful to your own principles and conviction. it doesn't matter the external attacks you are getting when you know that you are believing and standing up for the right thing. it doesn't matter what's happening outside because you've got that inner strength. and i see it on all these republicans who are willing to take the attacks and the conse consequences, you know, and be targeted because they are standing up for what they believe in. >> sure. >> i pity the cowards who are willing to compromise their principles and show that they have no backbone. >> ana, who is going to be left if the adam kinzingers, if the anthony gonzalezs des don't stan the fight. in the midterms, what does that leave us with? >> it leaves us with a very dysfunctional congress. >> we're a long way away. let's trust the american people and the voters, and even in districts you may think are very red districts, look what happened

congressman upton says received death throats following his votes.will play you part of a voicemail that they shared with us here at msnbc news. it contains offensive and disturbing language and we don't want to amplify hate speech but considering the degree to which the political environment has turned this toxic and potentially dangerous, we thought it was important for viewers to hear it. you need to hear this. >> traitor. that's what you are, you're a [ bleep ] piece traitor. i hope you die. i hope everyone in your family dies. you [ bleep ] people voted for dumb [ bleep ]. you're -- >> i hope former president trump is proud of this moment. the threats against congressman upton comes as paul gossar is not apologizing but doubling down showing him killing -- all comes as the former president raised money for the house republicans on monday by reportedly telling donors that the real insurrection took place on election day. all of this comes as liz cheney continues to beg her party to change course. here she was again yesterday. >> i love my party.

congressman fred upton was one of just 13 republicans to vote for the president's infrastructure bill last week. >> partly thanks to upton's vote, more than $10 billion will head to michigan to help fix the lead pipes, along with bridges and roads. despite that, one of upton's constituents left him this voice mail: >> trevor: and they say political discourse is dead! you know, i know this is terrible, but if you look at the bright side, he's just saying things that are eventually going to happen. we are all going to die. all our families are going to die. on a long enough timeline, he's just stating facts. i will admit this is really disturbing. what kind of person leaves voicemails anymore. that shit is creepy. write that shit on his insta comments like a normal person! and what's amazing is that this partisan anger is happening over an infrastructure bill. infrastructure! i mean, i would get it if the new roads they were building all led to an abortion clinic, or if they were adding special carpool leabz that were just for nonbinary people. but it's just fixing things for everybody.

fred upton voted for the same bill as mitch mcconnell and 18 republican senators.e's threatened as a traitor. it's a bill that biden wanted. but so did mcconnell. i wonder if journalists realize that the polarization and inflammatory conduct in this country has reached these heights. i know there's always been some of this but it really seems out of control right now. >> oh, i mean, it's as old as time that they got threats, for sure, when votes didn't go their way but these are -- looking at it through a political prism, these are centrist republicans in swing states. this is what their constituents have verbally expressed they wanted plus through their votes and that would be clean water, broadband, infrastructure, fixing crumbling bridges in their area, jeff van drew of new jersey said the state is supposed to get 20 billion. why would i vote against that to make it safer, to improve it. andrew garbarino of new york got a horrific threat. they arrested the guy. and in essence he cleveland back and he said, sorry, it's about paving roads. so man up and deal with

you have spoken about the threats to congressman fred upton and saying nobody should be threatened for doing their job. how do you change things? how do you quell this toxicity? >> i don't have an easy answer. i think the one thing that i would notice is that if something like this were to happen on our side and somebody were to threaten violence there's severe political consequences to pay and not to see that on the other side is deeply disturbing. for our part i think we have to continue to work with everybody who's willing to make a good faith effort to do their job, fred upton or others and we want to work in a bipartisan fashion with any patriot in congress. >> i want to pivot here to infrastructure. tomorrow is a very big day for the biden administration, for the democratic party as a whole and for cities and towns that really need these roadways, the highways and the bridges fixed right about now. talk me through what you see as kind of a shining light coming out of the infrastructure bill as you stand beside the president and signing it. >> a lot of pens will be handed out tomo

mark upton have done during the pandemic. i am pretty biased on this. don't take it from me.t from, rick -- take it from a marine corps veteran. at the marine -- beginning of the pandemic, he walked into a v.a. medical center with a mild fever and cough, but his symptoms quickly worsened. doctors had to ask -- act fast. they put him on a ventilator and into a coma, when he would remain for a month. fortunately, v.a. doctors and nurses were able to pull him through. six weeks after he entered the hospital, he is able to go home. later, when ronald was asked if he was nervous to return to the medical center, he said no, not at all. the people who saved my life are there. i am always excited to be here, because this is where heroes work. i tell this story because he is right. pa employees have been nothing short of heroic, often risking their own lives, or putting their families at risk to save the lives of veterans. when covid first hit, they worked late nights, early mornings, everything in between to make sure our vets received the care they needed, deserved, earned. when ppe

congresswoman tweeted their names and phone numbers and congressman upton tweeted as a catalyst. >> ie a colleague that put out the phone numbers of 13 of us who voted that way. glad to defend that vote. we've been working since last spring. i'm concerned about my staff. they're taking these calls. these are very disturbing adult language to say the least that truly is frightening. >> joining us now, co-founder of punchbowl news and friend of the show, jake sherman. he's also an msnbc contributor. jake, thank you for being here. let's start with that, with punchbowl's reporting about the backlash for the republicans who voted for the infrastructure bill. what could be the consequences? how serious is the movement by the republican colleagues? it's one thing to tweet out names and phone numbers. it's another to go after committee assignments and chairmanships, what's the latest. >> well, jon, the question is what is the leadership going to do. the leadership controls a lot of this. they could put down the rebellion of this nature and allow it to fester. it's all up to kevin mccarthy, j

and, again, fred upton is a tried and true republican. he's a conservative.time. behavior is deplorable but if fred upton is not a republican, i know this is a bit redundant, but i don't know what the republican party is. >> right. in the minute that we have left, jake, november -- the week of november 15th, which begins tomorrow, is when house progressives and moderates agreed that build back better would be voted on. is it going to be voted on? >> it's a good question. i'm trying to make heads or tails of that right now. i don't know. we'll have to see if the moderates are sufficiently happy with the budgetary information they've gotten from the congressional budget office. the progressives basically view this as it's time for moderates to get on board. four days is not enough time to pass a piece of legislation. i have to imagine there will be tremendous pressure. >> just to be clear, when we talk about progressives voting on build back better, we're only talking about the house, right? >> right. >> this doesn't mean the house and senate vote for build bac

working for the american people and on cnn state of the union michigan republican congressman fred upton defended his support of the bill as he saw it as a necessary step forward. this was a bipartisan plan. it it needed to happen. and i'm i'm glad that we got it past the finish line. but on abc's this week wyoming republican senator john barrasso slammed the bill and the social spending plan which is going to harm american families. people are going to pay higher prices. they're going to be higher taxes. and of course, we're going to see an increase in the debt even though many senate republicans like senate republican leader mitch mcconnell voted for the bill. barrasso says republicans are united in not supporting the build back better plan. now president biden is expected to sign the infrastructure bill this afternoon. >> reporting live in washington. i'm basil john. >> thank you so much. basil. and it is for 21. and we're talking about former trump adviser and campaign manager steve bannon is expected to turn himself in after being indicted on 2 counts of contempt of congress. the ch

when you look at these republicans being targeted, you have someone like michigan representative fred upton who is getting voicemails of people telling him they hope he and his family die. we are talking about security issues, but i wonder what you make of this being tied to a vote on infrastructure? >> president biden campaigned on bringing bipartisanship back to washington and doing more of this with congress. he was hoping it would be an example of republicans coming together with democrats to get something done for the country. we saw the blowback these republicans had voted for the bill are experiencing. biden is hoping it can be a time when he shows unity. but it will be a challenge because of the reaction. >> it will be a challenge, and weill have to watch closely. a salute to american veterans. thursday, president biden marked the 100th anniversary of the tomb of the unknown soldier and paid homage to those who served. >> our veterans represent the best of america. you are the very spine of america. not just the backbone. the spine of this country. and all of us owe you. >> this wee

we could see fred upton in michigan join that list. just about the only members in that bucket who have a chance of winning re-election are those who come from states with open or top two primaries where they can depend on some democratic votes to carry them through both the primary and the general election. people like dan new house from washington or jamie herrera beutler from washington, or david valadao from california. then there is the question of the 13 republicans who voted for the infrastructure bill. some of them are retiring. so have little to lose. about half of them came from new jersey or new york. we could see some of them redistricted out of their seats in new york. there are likely to be fewer republican compromisers or trump critics when all is said and done after the midterms. host: and the hill newspaper echoing what you are saying, david. g.o.p. centrist face attacks from the right. some house republicans are furious 13 of their g.o.p. colleagues voted to pass president biden's bipartisan infrastructure legislation

and fred upton of michigan, and don young of alaska. adam kinzinger, as well.y had enough republicans who voted ultimately to save off the democratic defections. but it was clearly not easy. they finally got this to the president's desk, after a bill that was approved in august. and we'll see what happens with the larger bill. when it comes up in m mid-november, they can only afford to lose three votes. will the moderates vote yes? things have been changing minute by minute. if they get it out of the house, the senate has a whole different complication, with manchin and others vowing to change the bill. at the moment, the white house is celebrating getting the infrastructure bill to the president's desk. >> i started chuckling. this has been a roller coaster of the day, but also recognizing how many steps to still cover with the $1.9 trillion package. manu raju, thank you very much. i want to take another break, then i want to talk about the president's role. this was a shift in terms of a very forceful and clear call on progressives to vote tonight. what is it

representative upton among 13 republicans voting for it yesterday.k in california, independent line. caller: hello, pedro, and thank you for c-span. thank you for being one of the best correspondents in national broadcast history. what i would like to know, pedro, we have a problem with the debt. if the speaker can allocate where the $1 trillion is going i think it would make the country a little more comfortable because you have high tax districts that the potholes are being fixed. for instance, in inglewood when the rams and chargers stadium was built, all those potholes, everything, fixed, fixed, fixed. what about south-central? hour talking about bridges first? are we talking about real infrastructure? i think the speaker should really put an allocated and itemized amount to where all that money is going. we have, what, 52 states? i think the money should go equally and it should be honestly distributed, what do you think? host: i will let other people comment as they wish on that topic. over to nebraska, republican line. jerry, hello. caller: i

the man hopes upton's family and his entire staff die.he upton spokesman there, criteriaing the phone calls and the congressman talked about it as well. they tweeted the phone numbers who voted in favor of that bill and that is just within of the stories. dave in new york saying it doesn't matter. caller: hi. thank you for c-span. i'm very angry as to what's happened with this bill. started out at $3 trillion. now half trillion and was watered down and water down by joe manchin and sinema and i understand it's very, very close in the senate. but pelosi and schumer and manchin and sinema, those are the people who were there for the signing of this bill. a much, much smaller. brought down to the lowest it could be. manchin is a self-interested corrupt republican who calls himself a democrat. and he's worried about capital there, who was there at the signing. host: you mind if i ask your party affiliation? caller: i don't have one, really. i vote democratic. that's all i can do you know, here in manhattan. 73 years old. born on the same day

one of them, fred upton of michigan, played a voice mail threat he received to anderson cooper. >> iessure blood pressure family dies. >> we've seen civility bounce right here. i'm concerned about my staff. they're taking these calls. they're threats to them. >> some conservative house republicans have discussed retaliating against those 13 republicans who voted for president biden's bill by trying to get them booted from their assignments, but it's the increasing threats of violence to members of congress that worries a former secret service agent. >> that environment includes organized groups that we saw around january 6th, but it also involves lone actors. people who are just lashing out maybe having received some of these messages as a call to action and then acting upon it. >> house speaker, nancy pelosi, tweeted that house republican leader, kevin mccarthy, should condemn the gosar video. >> why is leader mccarthy not speaking out more? >> well, he wants to be speaker of the house. he doesn't want to irritate the president who of course has a very big microphone to this day. >>

. >> that's the voice mail left for republican congressman fred upton after he voted with other gop lawmakersd that call after marjorie taylor greene appeared to incite some kind of backlash against her colleagues when she tweeted the names and phone numbers of the gop members who voted for the infrastructure bill. paul gosar tweeted out an anime sho showing him killing alexandria ocasio-cortez. his sister says he's out of control. >> this is something i have to op openly wonder. does he have to act on it himself before we believe he's a sociopath. where is the accountability? >> where is the accountability indeed. the truth is we have seen this movie before. not the creepy anime version, but the plot lines are familiar. trump supporters have been churning out violet memes for years now. this one shows the president massacring members of the news media. ask scientists, election officials, members of congress, journalists. they'll tell you about the death threats they've received for years now. much of what they've experienced comes to this. you come into the cross hairs of some characters on

i'm beverly upton and i'm proud to be in the domestic violence consortium. it's made up of 17 agencies with the core of their mission being ending domestic violence so we're very local and we really work on each and every one of these policy issuesand of course more.thank you . so the family violence counsel is really a dream. it's a dream come true. many of us wanted to do this for years. it used to be just a dv council. the attorney general's office for the state of california only mandates a domestic violence counsel in every county but san francisco wanted to leave lead the way by joining with elder abuse and child abuse and i was honored to be one of the founders of the family violence counsel. this is a place where we can thank the department of women for being the gluethat holds the family violence counsel together . at least handle and the entire staff keep us moving together in aunited way. i really want to thank them for that . and then this new generation of leadership and new recommendations that take into account racial inequity. gender issues.

just a few examples from this past week, michigan republican congressman fred upton received multiplepartisan infrastructure bill. and then arizona republican congressman with a disturbing anime cartoon video depicting him killing alexandria ocasio-cortez. killing her. the video unsurprisingly has now been deleted. bringing in our panel, democratic strategist and former senior aide on the biden/harris campaign and republican strategist and msnbc political analyst. both of them. adrian, let me start with you and to go back to trump's argument there. when asked whether or not he was worried about his vice president when hearing the chants of hang mike pence, and the former president's defense is, well, they were angry. >> yeah, there are no words. it's unbelievable that this is where the republican party is these days and it almost seems like it's a competition among some members of congress to see who can be the craziest, who can make the most outlandish statements. who can post the most dangerous provoking video. i've never seen anything like it. i worked on the hill for ten years. i'

the latest example is fred upton receive lg threatening voice mails after his vote on the infrastructurenumber, calling her a traitor for that vote. let me play his voice mail he gave to cnn. >> i hope you [ bleep ] die, hope your [ bleep ] family dies, hope every [ bleep ] dies, you piece of [ bleep ]. traitor. >> and a photo shopped video of him killing democratic congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez and attacking president biden. i combine these two things because this is -- this kind of reaction is a problem for republicans. it's a problem for leader kevin mccarthy. but do you have any belief that he'll do anything to address any of this? >> you know, i hope so. i don't know at this point. i would say, kevin, you need to do something here, steve, you need to do something here. this hasn't happened in a vacuum. you covered when gabby giffords was shot, when baseball practice for republicans was interrupted by gunfire, steve scalise was shot, obviously january 6th. i worry if we don't condemn this, both leaderships, if we don't condemn this and censure paul gosar, we sacrifice whoeve

dingell in michigan getting her district broken into and vandalized, a democrat to republican, fred uptonaving death threats on their voice mails. it has reached a level that is incredibly scary, and there is nobody in the leadership on the republican side right now trying in an earnest way to bring the temperature down, and that is what is so troubling. >> votes for bipartisan packages, right? >> and that lack of effort too. it's not only troubling just on a moral front, i guess you could say, or just on a human level, but the other part that is so frustrating and maddening is really it all comes down to politics, dana. this is not about i'm not going to say anything because we want to retake the house, we'll use whatever means necessary, and it seems for kevin mccarthy it's not not saying anything publicly because he wants to do everything he can to ideally become speaker. >> that's exactly right. it's really as simple as that. now, he has made public through v th a spokesperson at least over the weekend and late friday night that he was trying to organize this call. well, we know now t

. >>> gop congressman fred upton, one of 13 republicans who voted in favor of the bipartisan infrastructured following that yes vote. here is a bleeped version. >> [ bleep ] traitor. that is what you are. you are a [ bleep ] piece of [ bleep ] traitor. hope you die. hope everybody in your [ bleep ] dies. you [ bleep ] piece of [ bleep ] trash mother [ bleep ]. voted for [ bleep ]. you are stupider than he is and he can't complete a sentence you dumb mother [ bleep ] traitor piece of [ bleep ] piece of trash. hope you die, hope your family dies. hope your [ bleep ] staff dies. >> and the hateful calls started pouring in after his fellow house colleague republican marjorie taylor greene tweeted the phone numbers of those who had voted for the bill. if that is not enough, former president trump is also criticizing the 13 republicans. and congressional correspondent manu raju is on capitol hill. on what did the former president say? >> this is at a fundraising dinner last night in florida in which he criticized those 13 republicans saying that they should not have voted for that and saying that
