Instead of saving these stories for this book that hes writing. but again, were just very skeptical theyre going to do it, and democrats have shown no signal, no sign that they are willing to wait for the court to rule on anybody to slow their impeachment inquiry. >> heres what don mcgahns attorney said yesterday, don mcgahn will comply with judge jacksons decision unless it is stayed pending appeal. the doj is handling this case. you need to ask them whether they intend to seek a stay. they are...

Senate co-sponsors of bernie sanders approach to medicare for all. exactly 14. thats how many votes there are in the united states senate. nancy pelosis opposed to it. so i think everybody can guess what the reality would be of the sanders presidency. it would be something less than what hes asking for. and so the real compression into the compromise position happens in the congress. >> i dont know much, but youre going to need more than 14 votes. gentlemen, thank you. when we come back, well br...

Democrat, republican, all of them, they all advocate things they dont get. and so, what theyre advocating here is their hope. the reality of what they will actually do and be able to do as president is defined by congress and right now, just as an example, there are exactly 14 senate cosponsors of bernie sanders approach to medicare for all. thats how many votes in the united states senate for it. nancy pelosi is opposed to it. everybody can guess what the reality would be of the sanders preside...

That this -- these laws were built as a kind of compromise position with gun owners, with law enforcement, with mental health people to basically say, were not going to infringe on second amendment rights. but if we take away peoples guns for a period of 7 to 21 days, a short period, what we can do is get through this crisis while we come to a long-term plan. i think the second important point about these laws is that they are done with sensitivity to the second amendment and to gun owners and s...

>> i think chris is right, it was all muddled. it was just a muddled discussion, which isnt the end of the world. the democratic primary process is elaborate. the last time there was transportational change, it started in the democratic primary process. >> that was messy, 2008, obama was pushed on health care, by the john edwards of the world and by some of the more progressives in the race, that ended up forcing obama into a more progressive position on health care. talking about harris specifi...

Probably at this point dont look like they would be as viable against the president. thats whats head scratching. >> the u.s. supreme court ruled on a strict indiana abortion law sending some messages out there as far as willingness or unwillingness to take up the whole issue of roe versus wade. >> this was a compromise position in which the court decided to uphold a provision of the law. a provision of law thats designed do make it harder for clinics to operate. biden asserting medically unnece...

Think the alabama law is such a political misfire. because number one, im not at all convinced the supreme court would take up this case. i think its going to be struck down in the district court level. the same result at the appeals court level. im not sure the supreme court would grant cert on this extreme case. and this gives something, a focal point, for abortion rights supporters to vote on. this is a -- its an iconic sort of thing, no exceptions, no nothing. it was interesting hearing sena...

$1.3 billion thats what will go to the presidents desk and i hope he will sign it and there are other monies that could be deployed for other border security enhancement that i see on the table. >> when you look at what has been offered in the past and what he ended up settling for, his demand, of course, was $5.7 billion, though the compromise that the vice president put out was $2.5 billion and the senate bill that was passed had $1.6 billion and the compromise bill just under $1.4 billion. i ...

Yes. nancy pelosi famously said not one dollar for a barrier and quote, unquote wall. >> no, she said for the wall. congressman, in fairness, lets be honest. she said not one dollar for the wall. >> lets be honest -- >> thats where theyre making that distinction. >> she didnt say not a dollar for the barrier and that didnt roll off the tongue as nicely as for the wall. >> thats how childish this is. a wall is not a fence. its a barrier and it became a political fight and the bottom line is this,...

Table, medicine for their loved ones, they are not able to help their loved ones. its an impossible situation for those people. when is is this going to likely end? >> i think that you could look to the the senate and see if the senate, perhaps the presidents proposal fails. perhaps a second attempt through the senate is a way of striking some sort of compromise position between the presidents position and the houses position. but i think that if this really -- if there is movement on that, mitc...
