of family commitment during that retirement that he wanted to keep even though he had returned. and look, the guy is 45 years old. he knows more about football than anyone else. he could afford to miss ten days of training camp. although did it raise some eyebrows. and certainly i will say that his response, though, i'm 45 years old and i have a lot of bleep to do, i'm going to start using that. it is any out of office message on email. that is how i'm going to respond to text messages. >> exactly. and final question here, unsolved sports mysteries. connected to boston, i understand that the boston red sox won a world series in 2018 and i'm watching them, this season i can't believe that is true. somebody told me they won 108 games back in 2018. is that not possible. you could dismantle a team that good in a short period of time. >> the team that wur watching bears no resemblance to that
senators kyrsten sinema and washington and patty murray of washington. nine republicans were absence, concluding pat toomey of pennsylvania who missed the vote due to a family commitment but would have voted "yes" if he was there. okay, if some ways i get it. i mean, you are hours away from the memorial day weekend, you want to be with your family, you have commitments. right now, frankly, just between you and me, i would love to be at home with my family, but here i am at work, so are our producers and director. maybe they do their job the thursday before the holiday weekend? now with the republicans blocking the creation of a january 6th commission, we are left with a classic round of frustration and disappointment from senators like joe manchin of west virginia and lisa murkowski from alaska. here's senator manchin earlier today press his disappointment with his republican friends. >> choosing to put politics and
toomey, the republican of pennsylvania, indicated through a spokesperson he would have voted yes had he been present but he had a family commitment and couldn't participate. that would have been the seventh vote. again not hitting the ten-vote threshold. senate majority leader schumer not having those ten republicans to support this, he has not shied away. he has been vocal in disappointment with his republican colleagues. here is some of what he said yesterday. >> we know what's going on here. senate republicans chose to defend the big lie because they believe anything that might upset donald trump could hurt them politically. shame on the republican party for trying to sweep the horrors of that day and the rug because they are afraid of donald trump. >> reporter: it's worth noting the mother of capitol police officers brian sicknick who died as a result of january 6th attack at the capitol personally
my hope is that they will, eventually, do something. because that needs to happen. >> gladys, you met with senator cassidy from louisiana. >> uh-huh. >> he voted yes. >> uh-huh. >> you met with senator portman from ohio. he voted yes. senator toomey had a family commitment so he didn't vote, but he would have voted yes, he said. does it mean -- is that -- give you any sense of satisfaction that you may have -- >> oh, definitely. >> -- changed some minds? >> definitely. i don't know how -- were they -- i don't know if they were on the fence, or not. that, i'm not sure of. were they all on the fence? i'm not sure. >> well, we only knew of three ahead of time that were going to vote yes. romney, murkowski, and collins. >> uh-huh. >> so ultimately, three more voted yes. >> so maybe, we changed their minds. that would be great. that would be great. >> it's not nothing. >> right. >> i mean, a bipartisan majority did vote to create the commission. >> uh-huh. >> it just wasn't enough. >> yeah, what bothers me is that all these people that are, you
the ten senators needed to break the 60-vote filibuster threshold. we only saw in the vote that happened just yesterday, the six republican senators that allowed democrats to break party in order to move the commission forward. those six senator, we can put up a full screen so you can see include mitt romney, ben sasse, senators bill cassidy, susan collins and lisa murkowski of alaska, but also i want to note that republican senator of pennsylvania, pat toomey was one senator who did say he would have voted in favor of this commission had he been present and he was away for a family commitment and on top of that there were 11 senators who were not allowed for the vote to take place. they would need the ten republicans to be onboard and that seems unlikely as we didn't already see it take place. we now know that the house democrats are inching closer to putting forward the select committee, as you mentioned, its own partisan way to investigate
support they were going to initially have with leadership to push forward initially. looking what happened yesterday with this procedural motion being blocked, it didn't hit that ten republican threshold in order to break the filibuster. there were, however, six republican senators that did break party lines in support of this motion. and i want to let you see which six republicans those were. senators lisa murkowski, ben sasse, mitt romney and susan collins. and senator pat toomey indicated through a spokesperson he would have voted yes although he had a family commitment and couldn't vote. a number of senators had already left town. there were 11 that did not vote for it the motion for this commission to move forward. that included nine republicans and two democratic senators. i want you to hear from senator lisa murkowski who spoke with
favor of getting to the bottom of it. senator pat toomey's office says he would have voted in favor but he missed the vote because of a family commitment. some leaders and many candidates of the gop have become whiney, fake, false outrage pushing constant victims. it is really amazing to watch how weak they are. that's from adam kinzinger. liz cheney said thanks to senators cassidy, collins, murkowski, portman, sasse and romney for voting for truth and defense of our constitution. because there was a real reason for the investigation, identifying and combating one of the biggest threats against american democracy, grievance-based domestic terror
need 60 votes. not even 60% of the senators bother to stick around, and hence the absences, two democrats were absence. nine republicans were absent, including senator pat toomey who missed the vote due to a family commitment. i get it, you are hours away from the memorial day weekend. you have commitments. right now, frankly, i would love to be with my family, and the producers, the stage managers, the director. maybe the snofrs do their job on
