jim messina and dave wasserman, y'all are real, real spatter people.stments in states. my understand that states move. i saw virginia's move coming. i saw north carolina's move coming. i saw georgia's move coming. i saw texas coming, but i will tell you, i never saw ohio moving from 2012 and to 2016 to 2020 into this absolute buzz saw for republicans against democrats. and in this last election was such a huge victory for donald trump. i look at tim ryan talking about running in ohio and i think, okay, maybe he can do it. that's a stretch because it's such a progressive state. you two are the smart ones. explain to us, what has happened in ohio since 2012? jim messina? >> ohio is getting older and whiter and democrats are not being competitive in the rural parts of ohio. barack obama carried ohio twice and now in 2020, we got absolutely killed there. and if you look at why we are just not competitive in the rural parts of the state -- >> why is that? >> -- in the south of the state where we used to do much better and just aren't, look at iowa, it's a s

let's dive into this with former dnc chair debbie wasserman schultz of florida.red a resolution to remove representative greene from her committee assignments but she's still a successful fundraiser. she has a following. so some say things like this should be ignored, we shouldn't even talk about it. we have elected leaders pushing ideals associated with these hate movements. how do you feel the people you go to work with each day are pushing these ideals? >> republicans aren't even pretending that they're not the party of white nationalists anymore. you can see why. marjorie taylor greene proves every single day why it was absolutely essential that we remove her from her committees. she's a menace. she was removed because, in part, it was very clear that she was going to be nothing more than a distraction. now she's traveling -- she and other republican members are traveling down in much more dangerous and dark paths. ignore. that's what happened in nazi germany. the supposedly benign, more softer nazism at the beginning ultimately led to the holocaust. if you d

and i spoke with dave wasserman, who works for the cook political report.e deal. and what we saw from this data that came out yesterday afternoon, will kind of lead the way for a lot of these states to redistrict. but the redistricting fight that we're going to come in the coming months after september after more data from the census bureau comes in will be the key thing here. and how states redraw these lines and republicans really have the upper hand, they have the power to control the redistricting. and the democratic majority right now is very slim. they have six more seats than republicans in the house and so any changes really could make a huge difference here. i also think noting the timing, september 30th is when that new data comes out. and then we'll start to see some of the more redrawing of these maps. that's only a little over a year from the 2022 midterm elections. and so a very short timeline. i spoke with some of my sources on capitol hill and they said they're worried that giving this timeline, it could potentially create lawsuits that woul

david wasserman in the cook report analyzes data during the day and came back and said there's a veryeal chance that the republicans will pick up eight seats which would be enough to knock out nancy pelosi and make kevin mccarthy the speaker, but there are deeper things going on as you point out, the blue states are hemorrhaging people, shoving them away and what's crazy is in the middle of all of this, the answer of the liberals is to raise taxes. so everybody who is productive, who has resources, who pays taxes beginning to leave and instead of trying to figure out how to keep them, they're going to accelerate the transition out of the blue states to the states that are run overwhelmingly by republicans. you've never seen a clear contrast between the high tax big bureaucracy unionized machine system and all of these states run by democratic governors in a free enterprise small business entrepreneurship, low tax system as we are seeing in almost all republican states and the result is within human nature tells you what would be, people go to the pleasure and the migration is just goi

cook political report, and i trust their judgment, david wasserman et al say that the pen will be in hands of 87 that control republican districts, 75 whom control democratic districts, and the rest will be some type of commission. one other observation, if i can quickly make this. like you i'm very much attuned to the issue of gerrymandering. i think it's a very serious problem. but don't overlook bill bishop and the big sort and the idea that people are choosing to live among the like-minded. the number of blowout counties continues to grow, and we don't redraw the boundary line on counties every ten years. there is something else in the water here. it's not just the way we're characterizing congressional districts. >> michael smerconish is right, and we will learn how right in time. that's why i love having him on the show. he literally is going to give you a little bit of an advance because he thinks that much about these things. me appreciate you, smerc. >> thank you. >> it's true. people read and understand in history, and his seriousness of politics, sometimes you can be a ste

mike wasserman who is a member of the state advisory team.hink these numbers are dropping? >> larry, first, thank you for having me on this. thank you for calling attention to this issue. people continue -- to have their concerns about their vaccine but they really shouldn't at this point. the data is abundantly clear that just a few months ago, people were dying by the thousands from this virus.this . now that we have gotten the folks who are most susceptible to dying vaccinated, those numbers have dropped dramatically. i think it is just time we have to continue to educate folks in terms of the value and the safety of the vaccine. this is how we are going to get our country back to normal. >> we heard of the president singling out young peyoung peyoe are not the only ones who seem to be avoiding the shot. is that correct? >> yeah. there has been politics around the vaccine which is unfortunate. >> we are all americans. this is a war against the virus. as a country we need to come together to fight this war into feet the virus so we can go b

"60 minutes" used to be a venerable news magazine you could count on week after week to see the most indepth investigative stories. they have totally fallen off that perch. what else is instructive? did they do anything
