You know, are they going to be able to prove something about hunter biden? im not really sure, but its clear to me that what schumers trying to do is put mcconnell in a box here, for weeks and months, republicans have been arguing that all of this has been happening in secrecy or needs more information, if you need more information, lets have more witnesses. if you are a concern about secrecy, lets have these people testify in person. it ups the pressure, democrats know they only need to get fou...

>> but that shows schumer positive ternlly, if you do this how the president wants, you may lose your voice. they think this was reckless. they think rudy giuliani flying around ukraine was reprehensible. some say it was not impeachable in their view, but they dont like it. >> when you hear from members anonymously whether or not they will put their name on a quote and what youre hearing publicly, there is a difference of the a lot of them expressing private concerns. what schumer has tapped int...

Election security. what schumer is looking for is a follow-on bill that was passed by the house that would add another $775 million and say to campaigns, if you get any feelers from any foreign country, you have to report that. it would establish a kind of paper trail of ballots so that if there were some cyber attack, that there would be paper evidence of who people actually voted for. those are the bills, the measures, that mcconnell has blocked. two reasons really. one, he said theyre partisa...

Happen. he started talking about the illegal investigation. >> and it is not. >> exactly. >> to be clear, this is a legal, important investigation. its an important investigation -- >> the president you heard he said it was an illegal takedown that failed. >> he would not be so generous as to say that, in fact, the justice department had done its job. bob mueller had done his job. bill barr had done his job, and rosenstein who he once tweeted a picture of behind bars had done his job, but were n...

Check it out. >> the president will say predictably that the state of our union is strong but the truth is the state of the trump economy is failing americas middle class. the state of the trump healthcare system is failing american families. and the state of the trump administration is embroiled in chaos and incompetence. the state of our union is in need of drastic repair. >> bill: so much for coming together, huh? 300,000 new jobs last week, sir. annual economic growth may get to 3% this year...

>> first of all, thats not true. how about members of the black congressional caucus that got into a sacred covenant with louis farrakhan. >> begala, what do you have to say about that? >> i cant stand louis farrakhan, completely disavow. >> but do you think that he did enough? do you think there are -- >> not that i know of. it is false equivalence to say -- >> farrakhan says ugly stuff on a regular basis. >> mr. farrakhan over here is not a congressman from iowa. steve king is. and what steve ...

A regular basis. >> mr. farrakhan over here is not a congressman from iowa. steve king is. and what steve king said, reportedly, was highly racial. >> your senate majority leader schumer had to put the kibosh on an anti-bds bill, because he knew the number of democrats that would vote against protesting this bds movement against israel. schumer did that! he killed a vote on the antihfas bill. >> i dont know the motivations of what schumer did, so i cant back it up. but youve got to call it fair ...

Is this a fox news, talk radio pundit shutdown or did the president say do or die here? >> the president campaigned on this and said he was going to fight for this all along. and it comes down to 60 votes in the senate. but the president is doing what he promised just like on everything else from getting tax reform and others. this president is a fighter. but paul has been fighting for the wall as well. but here we are, were in this fight and what changed this week, remember when nancy pelosi wa...

>> lawrence: no, they dont. they want their own separate investigation as well as robert muellers investigation. we were talking about the case in florida. seems like the democrats are targeting their potable opponents right here because they dont want -- for months and years, they said trust robert mueller, let him complete his investigation. now they want their own investigation. they are going after his taxes when they have no legal right about it. then theres this notion that they say they w...

That are likely like manchin or donnelly at least admit they will meet with him but they have done what schumer has not committed to because otherwise -- >> what is amazing is antonin scalia was far more conservative than brett kavanaugh. scalia was very conservative and he was approved 98-0 in 1986. no democrats at all voted against scalia but he is more conservative than brett kavanaugh. >> a total shift. any other era brett cavanagh would have been unanimously confirmed. >> donald trump sure ...
