Position by giving the other side a little talking point. so the year of the actual midterm is very much a do-nothing year in congress, and i think thats important for people to keep in mind as youre looking at the cadence of how public office actually works. next year is pretty much a do nothing year. i would also suggest, though, since we havent done anything to reform the filibuster, and we havent passed any iteration of the voting rights bill, we can see extraordinary payoffs at the ballot b...

Were going to be putting money in their pockets. were talking about 20 million kids that will be in childcare now as a result of build back better that werent before. another 6 million that will be in universal pre-k that werent before. this is all good news for america. and we keep -- we talk big about taking care of our children, its all about our kids, but when it comes to putting dollars on the line for our kids, not so much. we average about $500 per child in this country. you compare us to...

>> well, i think thats exactly right. the ruling on friday left this narrow opening to sue, but it is extremely narrow. and i think that raises a lot of concerns among people who would like to see abortion rights continue in this country about what the court will do in this larger case involving the mississippi law. and i think we already saw in the argument some of the justices really signaling pretty clearly, in fact, they are willing to either substantially restrict abortion rights or perhaps...

There is that analysis based on the way they are redistricting and gerrymandering right now. you have the january 6th committee that is basically -- it essentially will have an expiration date to get their work done. do you think that they will be able to finish with all of the legal speed bumps that trumps people keep throwing down with denying their requests for interviews and cooperation and that we know what might happen with another coup beyond next midterms elections and presidential elect...

Republicans in the senate are embolden by the the fact they can point to the cbo, even though jen psaki says its a fake number, saying if we pass this, $3 trillion is added to the deficit. the big question is, none of us seem to know, how does that sit with joe manchin? because unless hes on board this goes nowhere. and then the president goes into a midterm without a win that he desperately need. in any event, go to my website, @smerconish.com. will inflation the passage of build back better? ...

Media together. what do we have for councilman rodriguez? no. and this is the exact blank democrats do it get 80 periods of the country to hate them. i get the point. the point is, do you realize -- do you realize just how much of a rallying cry this will be in certain parts of the country? even if what you are doing is popular in new york city, you will fire up the red states. this will bring people out to vote in the midterm or the next presidential. >> this is a problem we asked the democrats...

Democrats do it get 80% of the country to hate them. i get the point. the point is, do you realize -- do you realize just how much of a rallying cry this will be in certain parts of the country? even if what you are doing is popular in new york city, you will fire up the red states. this will bring people out to vote in the midterm or the next presidential. >> this is a problem we asked the democrats. sometimes we get into the power and we dont use it. the republican take the power and they use ...

Liz cheney is saying they are clearly do not be distracted by what you are hearing from mar-a-lago, theyre not running out the clock. we are gathering information, we are in the discovery process. people will be brought to justice. i am surprise the congressman did not see "morning joe" at the end of thos tweets yesterday. bannons court appearance is not going to be until july. we know there is a realtime line here, time crunch with the midterms of next november kind of hoping to get it wrapped ...

Appeasing china, eliminating voter i.d., opposing signature verification in elections and promoting ballot harvesting. does any of that sound pro-freedom to you? when biden warns about democracy backsliding he is preemptively excusing what will likely be a crushing loss for his party in the midterm and even in 2024. you know they are desperate when they send out the person with the approval rating of, i dont know, planters were to. >> in the united states when our democracy is not immune from th...

Democracy. to your question on campaign strategy, look. from a campaign perspective i have to assume no help is coming so well continue to advocate and that will have to assume well have the tools we have and no new tools for voters will be here. if that is the case well go out and make our case. well put together this coalition. we are going to win as strongly as we can and try and win up and down the ballot because just like david purdue is out here talking about the secretary of state, theyre...
