haggerty who had known for many years been a man of principle objects to the deficit score. now here's what i don't get, according to the news reports 15 other republican senators were crowding around him on the floor of the senate to talk him into voting for unanimous consent, what were they thinking. these are republicans, were talking conservatives, good conservatives like ted cruz, john cornyn, ted thune, there's already far far too much green new deal on this bill, we will talk to kim's jostle from the wall street journal and steve moore of freedom works with all those problems, most particularly the unprecedented centralized control over the economy that the democrats are seeking to the green new deal, it's not free enterprise is corporate cronyism, status capitalism, car companies pledging to sell half their cars by 2030 as long as the federal government pays for. some people would call that socialism. and as i mentioned last evening president biden has choked off all the mining in the production of rare minerals and he's aiming to stop oil, natural gas and coal as we

senate republicans should back haggerty. it doesn't seem like you have a lot of that backing. >> as we take more time and i'm glad i was able to stop this so we could to see what is in the bill and it's comments like these and the fact that you and i are having this conversation right now that allows american public and my colleagues to better understand within this bill i hope that will inform their votes and decisions as we move forward. >> one of your colleagues from north dakota had this to say this morning. >> there are some things that democrats be like quick sure. there are things that they would love that this is a 50/50 senate democrats have a majority so you have to take those and all of those other things that you reference are not exclusively necrotic principles. there are some other things that contribute to the overall infrastructure of our country and this is all hard infrastructure. jon: it seems like you have to take some of the better with the suite. >> but what comes next is this is a rush job to open the

i know you've had endless hours waiting with basically nothing happening because of bill haggerty from tennessee. but now we're about to get to final debate and a vote. >> reporter: that's right, andrea. this first track that senator schumer just mentioned regarding the bipartisan infrastructure bill, well, that train is about to reach its destination in the senate, regardless of the fact that senator bill haggerty slowed down this process for several days. he wasn't able to stop it, but just make it painfully longer. the senate could vote on final passage as early as 4:00 a.m. tomorrow morning. well, actually, i should back up. they could vote as early as today if senator haggerty and others allow them to do so, but time runs out on the clock at 4:00 a.m. tuesday morning when they can vote on this final passage. if they have an agreement, it could actually be in the daylight hours tomorrow as well. immediately after, they are going to move to this $3.5 trillion resolution, which is the first step in their reconciliation process to get their human infrastructure needs done, that the de

haggerty's point has been heard. and he's not going to relent but it has no actual impact. has no ability to stop this legislation which has -- enjoys overwhelming support. >> a throwback? isn't that what make america great again was trying to do? anna, you were talking about mixed messaging from republicans. what about democrats? over the weekend, moderate democrats in the house wrote a letter to nancy pelosi urging her to vote on this bipartisan hard infrastructure deal alone. not the $3.5 trillion. what does that tell you about how committed democrats are in the house to getting that bigger bill moving? schumer has said he wants it to be a one, two punch, but does everyone? >> yeah, i think this is just really underscoring how hard of a job speaker nancy pelosi is going to have in the next phases. we spent the last weeks and months really focused on the dynamics in the senate. her dynamics in the house are really tough. four-seat majority. and that letter underscores to me, where the divisions are. you have these moderates who say we want to move forward on infrastructur

let's talk about the obstacles, haggerty being one of them it seems. he kind of raised his hand when it came to the cbo report. do you expect any other obstacles ahead as they try to get to this vote on infrastructure? >> well, yeah, yasmin, i'm waiting to see how long it takes for senator haggerty's team to send out a fundraising e-mail with a clip of him from the floor. look, we may see a few other, you know, bumps along the road, but what really matters is this vote that took place today. 67 senators, a bipartisan group of senators, voted to move forward with debate. of course, senator cornyn, senator deb fischer, two senators who flipped and ended up supporting this bill. why? because people want infrastructure. members of congress love to go back home and talk about the revenue for bridges that they funded, talk about the water systems that they improved with this funding. it is one of the reasons why this bill is so overwhelmingly popular, not just with democrats but with republicans, too. it transcends party lines. so, you know, again we may see

haggerty kind of putting a pause on things because of the cbo report. are you afraid of more haggertys in the pipeline because of this cbo estimate? >> i think there's going to be a lot of discussion, and that was the whole point, leader schumer has taken already 22 amendments that have been processed over the last week, some from republicans, some from democrats, the point is this is the way democracy is supposed to work and we're trying to show not just america but this world that democracy can succeed and that requires conversation and discussion and persuasion, and i think we can get bill hagger to see the scoring was too limited and this bill does pay for itself, and not only that,' going to build infrastructure that will have a more than just a typical dynamic effect on the economy. we'll grow the economy dramatically by making these investments. >> how quickly do you expect this bill to pay for itself, from your own estimations that you guys have been doing and tracking? >> there's always a lag. it is hard to say six months or a year, but as we m

right now senator bill haggerty of tennessee is saying that he doesn't want to go through that expedited process. instead, he would like to do this through regular order. what regular order means is the process we have seen already start playing out here today, that key procedural vote that allows the senators to go to 30 hours of debate. following that, another procedural vote and more hours of debate. effectively that process is pushed until the early part of the week next week. basically, it is not a question of if they will get there, it is just a question of when at this point. >> that's right. >> you can hear it from senators on both sides of the aisle, there's a lot of anticipation wanting to get this done. for instance i was talking with senator john cornyn of texas who was saying while he agrees with what haggerty is objecting over effectively, he also sees the writing on the wall here and he is saying it is not a question of if we're going to vote on this but really when. >> i thought we had some -- >> i don't think we're going to see any significant changes or any amendments t

senator big haggerty of tennessee objected to moving forward. the report released yesterday shows infrastructure package will add more than $250 billion to the deficit over ten years. they had previously promised the bill was completely paid for. despite the setback t bill is on track for a final vote this weekend. majority leader chuck schumer said they'll move to the reconciliation package immediately after that. >>> joining us now, cofounder of "punchbowl news," anna. we keep hearing we're close, we're close, we're close, we're close. walk us through the timeline and the package. >> the senate is just being the senate. the senators were hoping to head out this weekend for their august recess, but it shows how power can be exercised where one single senator can really gum up the process. this time, senator haggerty, kind of a no name, first senator under the trump administration, who took over the alexander seat, somebody to watch in this process. to your point, this is going to happen. it's just a matter of when. so right now we expect the se

we'll see what haggerty decides to do. now, with this $550 billion bill, that's going to be the biggest in generations. all americans will see construction in their backyards for coming years after this bill passeslet that's money for roads, bridges, water, broadband. it's truly an investment in all of those areas. like i said, it's the biggest we've seen including in the last few administrations. >> julie, we're hearing that the select group hired denver riggleman to serve as a consultant. we thought it would happen. we confirmed this week it is happening. what can you tell us about that decision? >> we've seen denver riggleman from virginia meeking with speaker pelosi and liz cheney. they held a virtual meeting on january 6th. then a few hours later they came out with this announcement that riggleman was hired as a senior adviser to sort of help the committee as they move forward in investigates the aftermath of january 6th. riggleman, he released a video on twitter saying this is the biggest assignment he's been given,

i caught up with haggerty artist way out the door, he was frustrated and said, i am not holding up the bill. i want amendments to move forward, i want the process to continue. i am just asking for regular order. of course, that means we will likely not see the bill passed today, or tomorrow. it could drag on to tuesday morning, before we see this 550 billion dollar investment in our nation's infrastructure, passed the senate and head to the house, guys? >> all right julie, also, we are hearing that to top former doj officials sat in interviews with in the senate judiciary committee about former president trump's efforts to overturn the election, what can you tell us about that? >> yes. while the rest of the senate was busy trying to haggle out what happens next on infrastructure, the senate judiciary committee held closed door interviews with former president trump's top doj officials, including acting attorney general jeffrey rosen, that you remember, in december, there were reports that trump pressured him to find out whether the 2020 election results were invalid, whether there was

but we're seeing that senator bill haggerty, a republican from the state of tennessee, is digging in his heels not allowing this bill to move any faster through the u.s. senate. he says that he is going to require the senate to exhaust the entire amount of debate time. what that means for people back home is that instead of seeing this bill pass over the weekend, you can expect that this debate is going to go into early next week. that is of course if they can't get some kind of consensus and convince haggerty to pull back on his threat. so at this point, the expectation is this bipartisan infrastructure bill is going to pass, it is a matter of when it passes, not if it passes. but it will take a little bit more time. after that, democrats are hoping to move forward with their democratic only bundget bill an then a vote on voting rights legislation, then they will depart for the august recess. so a lot of moving parts, but the bottom line is that this bipartisan infrastructure bill will get pushed off to just a few more days. on capitol hill, for cnn, i'm lauren fox. >>> still ahead,

republican senator bill haggerty from tennessee. former president trump said this about the through bill. while you were sleeping the radical democrats advanced a communist plan to destroy america. you spoke to the former president. what did he say? >> he is with me in this and feels this is an abomination to push us towards socialism. america has a free enterprise system. what this new bill does, the 3.5-trillion dollars drafted by bernie sanders this is pushing us over the cliff to socialism. president trump wants our children to have the same opportunities we had not worse. >> you referred to this as a socialist debt bomb. people on the left says this will help people gain more economic freedom. >> freedom is the worst possible choice of words. this is taking away our freedom. the government wants to take care of us from cradle to grave starting with free childcare. the government will pay for everything. the amount of debt our children and grandchildren will shoulder for this is enormous. we continue to race taxes. we will crush

just a few minutes ago bill haggerty from tennessee was on the floor explaining why he continued to block the process saying i'm on the floor laying out why i refuse to expedite a vote on 24 infrastructure bill that adds to the deficit. that, of course, is significant because if there isn't an agreement of all 100 members you have to wait this out. that's potentially another 60 hours of debate on the u.s. senate's floor. that pushes republicans and democrats into next week for having to pass their budget bill. that is another piece of the democratic agenda they want to finish up before their recess so, jim, a lot of influx on capitol hill but haggerty putting his foot down saying this bill spends too much and i'll continue standing in the way of letting lawmakers pass it any sooner than the process allows. jim. >> all right, lauren fox, we'll watch and know you will as well. >>> coming up, tucker's trip to hun hungary. the fox news host takes his show on the road to gush about a role model for the west. >> we said to a hungarian minister thanning there, it's hard to believe that's your po

to senator bill haggerty who sits on the senate armed services committee. senator, do you think we should test that? should we go beyond that perimeter through the soldiers to gather those waiting outside? afghan nationalists and the rest to and through the airport? >> neil, we should do what it takes to save and preserve american lives. what we should have is a coherent plan. that's what i haven't seen. as you know before i took on the position of senator, i was the u.s. ambassador to japan. we had over 250,000 americans in japan. every chief admission understood their authority is responsible for their lives and have a plan to evacuate people. i redid mine as soon as i got to japan. if you remember, north korea was launching rockets. i had a plan to move and flow americans out of the country under any type of contingency. we're not seeing that planning. that leadership is lacking here. >> neil: sitting on the foreign relations committee, how do you think we achieve relations for should we with the taliban? the administration types have been, i don't know

what do you say to senator haggerty's comment that, no reason to rush? >> as leader schumer has said, we will get this done. it's just a question of when. whether it is today, tomorrow, or tuesday. but i'm confident that the clock that has been established allows the united states senate to pass a bipartisan infrastructure bill and get this over to the house. and upon action from them, it will get sent to president biden for signature with important investments for people all across america including in my home state of new mexico. >> you know, on one hand donald trump has been sending messages out to republican senators saying don't support this. mcconnell is telling republicans slow walk this a little bit. what difference does it make? in the end, the bill will pass, people will enjoy it. and like the republicans didn't support the rescue bill, they will still take credit for it one way or another, roads will get built and bridges will be fixed. >> i was in those meetings as a member of the u.s.out house of representatives with speaker pelosi and schum

in this case, it's senator bill haggerty, who says this should go through regular order. that just means it's going to take longer. what senators right now are right to do is hammer out a way to truncate this process a little bit, pick the amendments that they would like to move forward on, things like moving covid funds that haven't been spent a little bit more flexible. there are a few amendments there on crypto regulations. so there are other pet projects tucked away within this that senators would like to get an amendment vote on and what some of the senators pointed out as they were leaving the hill today, after frankly a defeated day that didn't end the way that they wanted it to, was that by holding up this process for whatever reason, they're stopping other senators, republican and democrat, from having their amendments heard on this process. this is not a timeline that democrats created. frankly, the only clock that these guys are up against is the idea that their supposed to be going on recess in a few days. the only thing they're grapping with here is how soon

one of the only republican senators that we can find that is doing anything to stop this bill is bill haggerty of tennessee. we're happy to have him joining us. thanks for coming on. some of your colleagues that you work with closely are supporting this bill and actively defending it in public. but you are doing exactly the opposite. why? >> well, this bill has become obvious what it is. it's been shielded with the veneer of bipartisanship. what it has become is the open gate way to lead into this $3.5 trillion package that bernie sanders transformation package of america they're trying to set up. they gave us a 2,700 page bill. in a few days to look at it. the very afternoon that we get the cbo score that tells what the bill cost, it fell short by $250 billion. what is chuck schumer's response? let's rush it through the night. let's get on to the bigger part of this transformation of america. i said no. we're not going to accelerate it. we're going to expose it to the light of day. the more we can talk about it -- that's why we're having this conversation. we have an opportunity to let the am

. >> we have senators haggerty and blackburn. >> thank you, governor. yes, we have seen so much devastations today, loss of life, livelihood, loss of their homes. as patrick said, the volunteer spirit is indeed alive and well. and they have shown up today. volunteers from all across the state coming to help with the search, coming to help people to salvage what they can from homes that were completely moved off of their foundations. i had a conversation with secretary mayorkas from homeland security. they are waiting and ready to respond, so we look forward to doing our part to work with the governor and also with the local mayors to address the tremendous need. >> what we saw today was devastation at a level that is absolutely heartbreaking. what we've seen is the tennessee spirit at the same time. we see people that have lost family members, people that don't know where family members are. but we've seen tennesseeans come to aid. i was so touched to see first responders from all over tennessee there on the ground, doing everything they can to help add

tennessee senator bill haggerty who blocked the democrats from ramming it through. it is an honor to see you here tonight, sir. we know you blocked that after it was found that in fact it wa not paid for, that was a big selling point that was shattere to the tune of about a quarter of a trillion dollars. 2700 pages, as some people have said, they read it, no, nobody has read this thing. help have so many of your colleagues jumped onto that shift, and why were you the onl one who said enough is enough and you held the line in this regard. >> everyone of my colleagues will have to make their own decision. it's a matter of conscious but one thing that is clear, this thing was advertised to be paid for entergy said a very complex bill over 2700 pages. the king james bible is 1300 pages. when they fell short, over a quote quarter of a trillion dollars this was announced a couple of hours between chuck schumer tried to introduce this classic in the american people needs to understand what we're looking at right my colleagues need a closer look at what we'r looking at part

so far senator bill haggerty had been digging in and blocking lawmakers from being able to expedite this process. i just talked to him a few minutes ago, he told me it would not conflict with his goal of delaying this if senators waited until a more sane hour in the morning to actually vote on this legislation. so it is unlikely at this point that it would happen in the middle of the night. instead, it sounds like lawmakers are trying to find some kind of fwreagreement to d this tomorrow morning at some point. once they vote on this legislation, then democrats will put down their budget resolution. they'll have to have a discussion about how long that debate for that budget resolution will go on. then they will vote on that as part of a budget vote-a-rama. that is the process in the senate where lawmakers can offer amendments, endless amendments throughout the evening up until the next morning. after that, they could leave for their august recess. a lot of moving parts happening now. we expect that this vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill will happen within the next day. i think t

we have a new member, senator haggerty that's slowed this process down significantly, and i don't know how much donald trump's comments have impacted him. but they certainly have not impacted the majority. we are going to get this bipartisan infrastructure bill, which is step one of president biden's build back better agenda. and then we are going to go immediately to step two, which is the budget, where we are going to bring down costs for americans. we are going to continue this large tax cut for american families. we are going to create jobs while we are attacking the climate change. and the good thing, reverend al is we are going to be able to pay for all of that in the budget by just making sure that the wealthy pay their fair share. so i am looking forward to that. >> now, senator, i saw this week where you and ohio senator rob portman were able to add legislation to the infrastructure plan, an initiative that focuses on educating americans about recycling. it's an important priority, certainly. but for someone watching this show and wondering what the fate of voting rights legis

jacqui: the bill could have passed last night but senator haggerty to block it and saying it was not, in fact, paid for but would add a quarter trillion dollars of the deficit. you took to twitter to clear up some misinformation around that, can you explain in senator: it's exactly as we predicted. cbo was going to give us credit for half of pay for's as they did and another half that a reasonable person would look at and say that's a pay for but they won't give us credit. congress has put money out there for federal unemployment insurance subsidies, about 53 billion of that will not be spent so the congress puts it out and we repurpose that to this bill. 53 billion already allocated, repurposed, cbo doesn't give us credit but a reasonable person would say that's a pay for and we feel okay about it. one more thing to add, tim did an analysis, cbo for 10 years, tim went out 30 years. the university of pennsylvania. they say a decrease of deficit and increase in the economy because of the long-term benefits of major infrastructure. jacqui: you also had to clear up critical race theory,

takes 60 votes, another 30 hours if senator haggerty and others force us to utilize that whole amount of time. it will get done. >> i was about to ask, is there any concern the bipartisan bill will not pass? >> no, i think it was very clear, we had 18 senators on the republican side who joined us in closing debate. two others said they would do so, but they were absent. so we have pretty strong support, strong bipartisan support. this is the transportation, the broadband and water portion of the work that needs to be done. that leaves us with a whole lot more on climate infrastructure and housing infrastructure, education and support for families. >> in terms of the reconciliation bill which would be the simple majority, democrats-only bill, the second bill, how concerned are you that that is the bill that's going to be even more tough -- more tougher -- will be tougher to pass than the bipartisan bill? >> well, it does require all 50 democrats to hang together, and there are differences of opinion as we noah mong 50 members. so there will be a lot of work on the individual components

according to senator haggerty, a group of democrats are circulating a letter they plan to sent to speaker pelosi to not wait for the bigger package to come through. before they sent it, progressives are already pushing back. >> julie, in the meantime, i want to get your thoughts, and reporting that the two top former doj officials sat for interviews with the committee about former president trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election, one of them doing it for nine hours yet, with one senator saying i was struck how close the country came to a total catastrophe. >> reporter: what's even more than a rare weekend session is a rare saturday hearing. that's what happened yesterday behind closed doors for hour, the senate judiciary committee, mostly staff, but a few senators heard from jeffrey rosen, and they heard from him because the panel is investigating trump's claims that the 2020 ehe election from, then senator blumenthal came out and spoke to es, and they had they learned new information they didn't previously know. this is the first step by the democrat-controlled committee. chairman

. >> and we should be clear, there's really only been one senator, bill haggerty of tennessee, who is considered to be a possible monkey wrench in this if he decides for some reason to stay on the senate and speak for longer than an hour or so. so it's possible that if he drops his objection this could all move forward pretty fast, right? >> he can delay but cannot deny and ultimately it may be that this bill is not delayable. >> here's a bit of how senate majority leader chuck schumer kicked things offer earlier today to kind of set a tone for what we've seen this evening. watch. >> well, this afternoon we pick up where we left off last night. the senate has voted to advance the bipartisan infrastructure bill and bring debate on the substitute amendment to an end. i repeat that democrats are ready and willing to vote on additional amendments to the bill before moving to final passage. once again, that will require the cooperation of our republican colleagues. i hope they will cooperate so we can move more quickly. otherwise, we'll proceed by the book and finish the bill. >> john, wha

haggerty says he does not want to expedite it over fears that democrats will move rapidly to pass a larger reconciliation bill. this after the package was found to be not fully paid for as promised. a congressional budget office report claimed it would add $256 billion to the deficit over a decade. a vote on the bill is expected tomorrow. >>> britney spears filed paperwork to remove her father from her conservatorship immediately. she's asking an l.a. judge to move an upcoming september hearing in her case to later this month. her lawyer saying, quote: the time has come for mr. spears' reign to end. ms. conspiracy -- ms. spears should not be forced to suffer further. every day matters. >>> and while the rest of the u.s. women's soccer team knelt before their olympic final, carli lloyd took a stand. she scored two goals against australia helping team usa win a gold medal. team usa leads the board with 95 total medals. and the back story to that is his grandfather, he would write him messages, that's how they would communicate. and his grandfather died, and he said this is the final message
