Heart. it really does. >> how shocking the word due process. >> thank you, nancy pelosi. >> enraged some people yesterday. theres something else bigger here. ive even heard conservatives say this about john conyers. first of all, i dont understand this slush fund that they have in congress. i never knew about it. im sure you didnt know about it either. its outrageous. we need to get that open and know what thats about. we need to know all the accusers. im sure, you know, lets just presume that t...

Accusers. >> i dont know who they are. they have not really come forward. >> so you dont know if you believe the accusations? >> thats for the ethics committee to review, but i believe he understands what is at stake here and he will do the right thing. but all of these nondisclosure agreements have to go. by the way, some of them are there to protect the victim because they didnt want some of it to be public. but thats over. in other words, if the victim wants to be private, she can be. >> yeah...

Impropriety and how theyre playing out all across capitol hill. on "meet the press" this weekend she was asked about this issue broadly and then asked about it specifically in regards to congressman conniers who has been an icon in the democratic party and you can see in the clip were about to play the differences in the tone and why she was very quickly attacked for this response. take a listen. >> something very transformative is happening, that is women are saying zero tolerance, no more, and...

They havent really come forward. i believe he understands whats at stake here he will do the right thing. >> bret: i heard a lot of people reacting to that interview. >> i saw people tweeting about it. i watch the whole interview. its as bad as i could have imagined it. she brought up his pro woman voting record as a defense for him. this is a guy whos made a confidential payout for sexual harassment allegations. this is a party thats built their entire argument on "believe the accusers." zero t...

Everybody can do the math what it does for the race. our reporting indicates that senate majority leader begged the president to stay out of that race, begged him to get involved to push moore out, begged him once he declined to at least not intervene in favor of moore. the president blew off those questions and told mitch mcconnell he is not sure. thats striking when you have every republican saying they believe moores accusers and he should stand down. >> break with his own daughter as well. h...

Defend representative john conyers of michigan. >> and i cant connect the iconic john conyers? this was -- we heard a lot from democrats who told us, they lamented the way that both clintons accusers were treated, and this is a new era, and they lament how this all happened. he failed the test, she failed her she could publicly pressure and say, women should believe and stick up for other women. these are credible accusations. these were settled. this is not a joke, and john conyers alike al fra...

Ought to go forward and we ought to, you know, get to all the facts, just as in the case of john conyers. this was talked about earlier. i hope we see action on that even this week. well see what the facts are. i dont know all the facts. i dont think all of those are public yet. i do think all of this, as difficult as it is in some respects for our society, it really important because i think it will end up changing peoples attitudes and changing our culture. so i -- im glad its being discussed....

And step aside given how quickly the climate has intensified here. >> i have to say, i thought exactly the same thing as jeremy as i was looking at those interviews yesterday. the one thing that strikes you is when he said, he couldnt say if there might be any other accusers. is this potentially out of his hands right now? >> oh, yeah. >> anna, sorry. >> i think hes doing his best right now to do damage control. hes been consistently on message, apologetic, saying he wants to earn back the trust...

People? i mean shouldnt pea shine the light and have some transparency if they have a story to tell? i think thats the important issue today going forward. >> i think that is 1horse% important issue. i wont argue with you on that point. but when you say youve been representing some men who have been accused in the past, you were a part of the team for harvey weinstein who opened the doors for all of this, lisa. this is man whos been accused by a number of women for not just inappropriate touchin...

To be willing to come forward -- >> i understand. maybe this doesnt apply to franken, but if the ethics committee cant hear what the accusers against franken have to say because theyve signed these agreements. >> i dont think thats true. >> theres one accuser when you sign a confidentiality agreement you cant even talk to your therapist about it let alone the ethics committee. >> i think there are a lot of other accusers going through the ethics committee right now. but if theres any evidence, i...
