One says, i want both parties to Work Together for the best interest of the American People. Im sick of all of them getting paid when all they do is fight. Right now, they do just what is best for their own parties. The president cannot do his job without the right help. Another says, immediately put up a plan to reunite the kids separated from their parents. To your calls, momentarily. First, some comments from the speaker of the house and her views on the lameduck session in the democratic agenda ahead. These comments come friday before the president elect was announced and the winner named on saturday. [video clip] speaker, the previous four president s entered their first year with their party fully in control of congress, the house in the senate. How much do you have to trim that,he ambition knowing at best, it is a 5050 senate and some think the republicans are favored in georgia, and you still have majority leader mcconnell . How many times have you heard me quote lincoln . Public sentiment is everything. With it, you can accomplish almost anything. Without it, practically nothing. That is what i think is going to save the day. The public once the virus to be crushed, they want the economy to reopen and children to go to school safely. Are in sane if you francisco, michigan, alabama, wherever it is, people want jobs. They want jobs. When we talk about the health and wellbeing of the American People, job security is an important factor of health for those people. Once we go forward with an infrastructure bill, that is usually not partisan. It isnt partisan. We are going to blanket the country with a build back better, as joe biden calls it, we called it moving america forward. We have a great deal in common between those two agendas. Host Speaker Pelosi from friday. Our monday morning question for you, your top priority for the Biden Administration . Line for democrats, one for republicans and all others. Lets go to aurora, colorado. This is edna, democrats line. Edna, you are on the air. Go ahead. Ok. We will hear from connecticut. Cindy . Are you there . Caller hi. Good morning. My top priority for the Biden Administration would be the pandemic, and also, making sure is the way ittem has been, voting in person. The elections cannot be a week or month before the election and two weeks after. That would be one thing, but the pandemic is really the top priority for a lot of people. I just hope you all will give some credit to the other side. We do have a vaccine at the ready and i hope that if you get it, you think President Trump for it. Host new york, democrats line. Caller first of all, the penalty for electing donald trump in the first place is the loss of perhaps anywhere between 50000 and 100 thousand lives that were unnecessarily taken because of this covid19 problem we have. Forop priority, of course, president elect is to develop a comprehensive, coordinated plan all thek covid19 using science and technology that we and the organization that to a politician of his caliber. Host do you think a National Mask mandate or Something Like that, or at least a stronger suggestion from the federal government, from the president , is part of what the Biden Administration, the Incoming Administration may be considering . Caller one of my biggest objections to donald trump was the fact that he couldnt wear a mask. I dont think that was too much to ask of a president. He were to set the standards by wearing that mask, and to whatever extent, i cant quantify it, but if the president wears a mask, he sends a signal. If he doesnt wear a mask, he sends another. That is why i say that he caused a lot of lives. That is the price we paid for electing someone who was not a and i can understand electing a businessman, but elect gaetz or welsh of general electric. Not someone who has no experience in the real world. Thank you. Host this is bill in florida, republican line. Caller good morning. I would think Climate Change would be up there as as we speak, the indian river is creeping up on highway one here in florida. Thaturse, i would think the voting problems they have in georgia with of the senatorial races, would be explored. We know the voter purging has been going on for a long time and they haveia taken temp to court. That race is very important. Host florida was called fairly early for the president last tuesday night. Maybe early into wednesday morning, are you surprised of that . Did the voting process, the vote count there go pretty smoothly . Caller i believe the voter purging has been going on here in florida for quite some time. Years. Been voting for 20 originally, im from staten island. The terribly upset with whole voting process down here in the hands of scott who was in trouble at one point for medicare fraud. What was theng, final resolution or has there been with the voters approved that amendment a couple of years ago to allow former convicted felons to vote. Where did that stand . Did some of them get to vote in the 2020 race or not . Caller i think they had to pay their fines in order to vote. That is one million votes. Host we will let you go and go to christopher in new jersey. Caller thanks for taking my call. Top priorities are indeed the covid19 pandemic, and also, after the recovery of that with the things that president elect biden is going to do, the recovery of jobs in the country, also, indeed, the rights of disabled people with special needs because they have been victims of brutality for so long, as well as the ending of systemic racism on all genders and nationalities and people with special needs. And finally, to increase the minimum wage sincerely to 15 to 25 per hour because we have seen a lot of people fighting for it and it is important that the people get back on their feet and be able to achieve the American Dream for as long as i have been doing it. Ive been fighting for so many people, and they have not had a voice. I think joe biden, today, made it clear that everyone deserved to have a voice in the selection. The vote by mail thing went beautifully well, the early election thing went beautifully well, and i believe people should realize that joe biden has a clear mandate for america. And i do believe he will get the job done absolutely 100 right because if we Work Together and get it done correctly, both locally and nationally and get people with special needs also to be heard, we have a chance to make america a place where they can be welcomed by all and accessible. Oft philadelphia, the focus the Trump Campaign with special news conferences, including one over the weekend with rudy giuliani, who is leading the effort there. We go to philly next and hear from jaclyn on our republican line. Caller good morning. Tellerswe are the truth who voted for trump. He wasnt perfect, but he told the truth and that is why i admired him so much. Im going to change the subject for a minute. This morning, i heard there might be a new coronavirus something to heal the coronavirus. Im locking words. Host a vaccine. Caller who is going to take the credit for that . Joe biden . Not donald trump, though the work he did, he tried hard. I think joe biden is going to take the credit for that. One other thing i noticed, im my girlfriend and i went shopping and i see only millennials jumping around providing. No old people voting for him at all. I find that very interesting. Host jaclyn in philadelphia, pennsylvania, the focus over the weekend as the Associated Press and other news organizations called the state for joe biden. Senator pat toomey of pennsylvania was asked about the election in the vote count. Washington journal 70 million americans voted for donald trump. They, and the president deserve to have this process play out. I understand yesterday, the media projected how this is going to end. In the media projection is probably correct, but there is a reason we actually do the count. By the way, part of our process is to adjudicate disputes. It can include recounts. Under pennsylvania law, there is an end automatic recount if the vote margin is. 5 . At the moment, joe biden is leading by only. 6 . Lets let this come to its proper conclusion. In the process, maximize the number of people who have confidence it was done properly. Jill biden is ahead by more than 30,000 votes. You understand that at a certain point, i recount just would not change the math. Pennsylvania law has an automatic recount. We should follow the law. If it comes to a lead that is outside of the automatic recount margin, then pennsylvania law gives the losing candidate the opportunity to petition for a recount. The loser has to pay for it. You are right that recounts very seldom change the outcomes. I understand that, but theres nothing wrong with following the process and the law. Host the Washington Times headline this morning Trump Legal Team to file suits. They are getting ready to unleash a number of lawsuits alleging voter fraud and irregularities. Increase in litigation comes as mr. Trump trails presumptive president elect joseph biden and a handful of swing states by as mailin ballots continue to be counted. Since when does the lame stream media called who our next president will be . We have all learned a lot in the net last two weeks, mr. Trump tweeted on sunday. Giuliani noted free of the broader legal issues they are raising. I think we have enough to change pennsylvania. It would be wrong for mr. Trump to concede. He plans to file more lawsuits today saying they could target between four and 10 different states. Comments on our opening question. Says, throughe the lawsuits to show everyone there was truly no fraud. Get votes certified. The president elect has nothing has no power to accomplish anything in the however, hearty, could begin to minimize or eliminate the influence of the radical left inside the party. This one says, our new president has a full plate and a lot to address. As a physician, financially secure, my biggest concern is police violence. Lets go to our independent line and hear from gilbert in birmingham, alabama. Caller good morning and thanks to cspan. My main issue with the incoming president , is the issue of canada. China. With one of i asked my friends with the fact that world war iii is already over. It seems as if no one is taking notice to the fact that other than this article, over in china, the pandemic seems to have succeeded. Nothing is happening over there. All of the businesses over there. Everybody making mega profits. And who lost . The american public. Im very concerned about the way thisiden deals with economic trade thing with china because if the American Economy collapsed, it would be all over for the world. Host were you satisfied with the Trump Administration and how they dealt with china on trade and other issues . Caller exactly. Now, we have nobody to protect us from china. Let me say this. I am a man of 70 years old and when i went to school, they taught us civics and communism. China is a communist country. And for people in congress to allow the american businessman to have free will with a communist country, where are we going to be in the next four or five years . Communism . Host next, democrat collar. Caller. Caller i think one of our parties should be tackling affordable housing. We have to come together as americans. I think that is one way we can unite the country. Tackling focused on our infrastructure. Plays a relationship with one another. I think if we can tackle that, we could maybe ill get along. Lets try doing that. Illinois, we hear from larry on our republican line. Caller good morning. I would like to know how biden is going to unite the country when, for the last four years, republicans have voted for trump have been called ignorant, stupid, uneducated bible thumpers, gun carrying idiots, when the day of the inauguration, there were several democrats standing up yelling impeach trump. I just dont see how it is going to happen. Rightk mr. Trump has the to question any of the elections. If it is legal, he should go ahead and do it. I dont believe biden is ever going to bring the country together. That thes, i hope neighborhoods that he built great big highrises for Public Housing like i live in and we will see what their neighborhoods end up like and if they can sell their homes. Thank you very much and have a wonderful day. Joliet, illinois, margaret on the independent line. Caller im looking at the fact that we could have been the ones that looked lost. Democrats could have lost it. Why not be decent to the republicans . All republicans are not stupid and silly just like all democrats are not. Democratsof it is, remember how they felt when they lost. Please respect the republicans. Lets give them a hand up, not a handout. Lets make it ok for them to feel the way they feel right now. We know how wee felt when we lost. Dont just look at them and call them ignorant or stupid. For whatever reason they made this decision, it was their decision to make. Who are we to say that they are wrong and we are right . We just believe the way we believe, but also, understand the way your neighbor feels. It is ok. All democrats are not perfect, and all republicans are not perfect. Host margaret in illinois. The u. S. Senate is expected to gavel back in. Firsttion since the session since the election. We are likely to hear from majority leader mcconnell and minority leader chuck schumer. Haveal republicans congratulated joe biden on the wind. One of those was from Lisa Murkowski. As palletsat even are counted in alaska and legal challenges continue, former Vice President joe biden is now the projected winner of this close on hardfought president ial race. The night he declared victory in s to be a president who and pledged to be a president who works with all americans. While we may not always agree, i will work with them to do what is right for alaska just as i will continue to emphasize collaboration and bipartisanship with my colleagues in the narrowly divided senate. Some of the Statement Released by Lisa Murkowski late saturday night. Roy blunt of missouri was asked about the expected lawsuits the Trump Campaign is supposed to issue. [video clip] i spoke with secretary of that say they esteemed no widespread evidence of any kind of fraud at all. Joe biden has won this election. Why cant you acknowledge it . Andhat i said on friday what Chris Christie said just a few minutes ago on this show is, it is time for the president s lawyers to present the facts, and then, it is time for those faxed to speak for themselves. It is going to be much easier to work toward that kind of transition we want, look at the inauguration, which im going to have the honor of chairing again, and bringing the country together, if everybody feels like we went through a process and everybody was heard, every and weut was counted come to a conclusion. Almost every state within seven to 10 days of the election goes through that entire canvas. There are always some changes. Seems unlikely that any changes could be big enough to make a difference, but this is a close election and we need to acknowledge that. Continue with your calls and comments. Your top priority for the Biden Administration. Checking social media. Debbie says this, first, get pandemic under control. Then, work on all the rest of his goals starting with addressing and doing something about systemic racism. Julie says, medicare for all. Sam in california, if i had a chance to l
