those were kind of core issues for the gop base. and he did so in an entertaining way, which is something that he learned from being a hollywood celebrity all those years. he learned to entertain. i think that is a key asset that really goes to why republicans embrace celebrity. there's also maybe a message point that you can bring in to this. that celebrities kind of re-enforce the gop message that you, too, can be a capitalist success story like donald trump, like arnold schwarzenegger, like ronald reagan. that is another aspect of this and also why democrats stay away from celebrities because there is a sense that celebrities undercut our message of being for working people. >> yes or no, would kim kardashian have a good shot at the nomination in either party? >> she would have an excellent shot at the nomination, actually, on the gop side. she would have a much harder time on the democratic side because she would actually have to answer questions about health care finance. that's not something she probably knows a lot about. it'

the gop may have an aging senate minority leader in mitch mcconnell but also legislative younger elected officials who are energetic, conservative and smart. whether or not trump decides to run again the main point is that the gop actually has a very deep bench, the democrats are trying to put a good face on all of this but they know they are going to need to replace biden and they know running kamala harris would be like getting a root canal without novocain only you lose the tooth at the end.

it's gop sharia law. they're not going to stop there, they're going to come for birth control, marriage equality. who knows what's next. maybe we have to ban bacon, ban pork, do something as muslims to push back on this. the reality is people should be -- you don't want to live in a theocracy. you should be very upset. it's not a legal dispute. this is taking extreme beliefs and turning it into the law of the land. what about the rest of our religious liberty? the right loves to talk religious liberty. the women's religious liberty to control their own body. they don't care. >> they don't want government interfering in their affairs either, except for when it suits them politically. ida and to dean's point quite honestly, this is not about abortion because the precedents that this would set is there is so much more on the gop's agenda that they want the supreme court, as they have done in other cases with voting rights, but this time it could go even beyond that. you can take this and take the principle o

since 1988 the gop was essentially run by one family, the bushes. if you are on their good side all was well but if you questioned them or dared to criticize them you were shunned. but it is not the democracy when your party is controlled by big donors and one small sleeper family. for years the conservative grassroots were demanding real change in things like foreign policy, border policy, trade policy but they were summarily ignored until trump came along and david brooks and others like him want to return to the old days when gop voters lost gracefully and lost regularly by following naÏve globalist dreams. >> we assign a that is becoming one of the most dynamic and creative societies in the world. america welcomes the emergence of a strong and peaceful and prosperous china. >> which brings me back to biden's summit today, the biggest tell that this has nothing to do with promoting democracy is the fact that the president of the eu was invited. >> we know how painful it is when a small group takes unlimited power and imposes a single vision on a

i heard the taliban is suing the gop for trademark infringement. i'm not saying they're the same but it's their play book, turning their extreme religious beliefs into the law of the land. they are projecting what they wanted to do. only 30% of americans want to overturn roe. they don't care. in their view that's what their interpretation of their faith and i call it gop sharia law. they're into the going to stop there. they're going to come for birth control, marriage equality. maybe we have to ban bacon, muslims to push back on this. you don't want to live this a -- in a theocracy, you should be very upset. this is taking extreme views and turning it into the law of the land. what about the women's religion liberty to control their own body. they don't care. >> and they don't want government interfering in their affairs either, except for when it suits them politically. ida, to dean's point, this is not about abortion. the precedent that this would set is there is so much more on the gop's agenda that they want the supreme court, as they have don

we've seen this before from the gop. we know where they're head and it's nowhere good. but there still is time to fight back. there are bills in congress right now, including the john lewis voting rights act and the for the people act that can protect our democracy. we must prioritize their passage, even if it means eliminating the senate filibuster. democrats cannot repeat past mistakes, going into 2022 and 2024, as vulnerable as they were in 2016. republicans have sown over and over that they will pay lip service to civility and then stop at nothing to get what they want. let's tell them we won't be fooled again. we got you. n the moment♪ ♪i'd let you had i known it, why don't you say so?♪ ♪didn't even notice,♪ ♪no punches left to roll with♪ ♪you got to keep me focused♪ why hide your skin if dupixent has your moderate-to-severe eczema, or atopic dermatitis under control? hide our skin? not us. because dupixent targets a root cause of eczema, it helps heal your skin from within, keeping you one step ahead of it. and for kids ages 6 and up, that means

fringe movement of goons and weirdos who supported him were not necessarily the core of the modern gop, that once trump faded away the party would return to some semblance of normalcy but over and over republicans keep proving how naive and wrong that assumption was. and look, i get it i think lots of people were hoping this would be a "beetlejuice" situation where we could just say his name three times and he would disappear into that waiting room where he finally looked like he fits in [ laughter ] "we love -- we love the shrunken head guy, don't we, folks?

and you better believe that gop candidates across the country are going to be running that number, as those additional spending, when we know the truth is this is to cover debt accrued and accumulated under trump. right? this is not about new spending. that is the ultimate narrative here that republicans are trying to sell. so, the more they can be hands off about this and as mcconnell pointed out, technically not vote for it, they're going to lean into that. especially going into the 2022 midterms. >> i knew you could explain and thank you for. that mark mckinnon, imagine if republicans had a legislative agenda that they were affirmatively trying to pass. speaking of which, i'm going to share with you part of a wall street journal forum tonight, with senator joe manchin. we'll discuss his remarks on the other side. they >> probably have differences with most of my colleagues, respectfully. these are all very intelligent, good people, meanwhile and russ represent a constituency. i'm representing my constituents. and we all respect that. i've told people, if you look at my record, and

and don't even get me started on current gop governor, ron desantis. after floridians restored voting rights to felons in 2018, desantis and his republican friends said, not so fast. in the spirit of the jim crow era poll tax, they enacted a new law requiring felons to "pay all legal financial obligations" before being able to vote. and of course, who could forget desantis mock signing one of the country's most restrictive voting bills, live on "fox and friends" earlier this year. the new law limits ballot drop box locations, restricts who can drop off a voter's ballot and gives new powers to partisan poll watchers, all in the name of stopping so-called voter fraud. so, good news tonight. the governor has been validated. three voters in the villages have been charged with voter fraud. the rub? they're not democrats. those three residents of the now infamous trump loving retirement community in florida are accused of casting more than one ballot in the 2020 election. but two of the suspects are registered republicans, the third is unaffiliated. so, when

betsey, the gop it's not just vocalizing these, not just talking about them. we learned a republican running to replace a democrat in the statehouse -- can you only run if you're running on the big lie? >> we'll know within a couple of months as these primary contests are coming up and as these elections play out. it's certainly something that seems to be beneficial to many of these candidates. if it weren't, they wouldn't be betting and running on this fabrication, this dangerous fabrication is something that makes sense for them to do. one thing involving this specific georgia case that's important to note. i obtained internal e-mails from the justice department a few months ago showing that specifically in this incident involving these two women the fbi actually investigated. there was a lower level official in the justice department, a career official who didn't want to dignify these conspiracy theories by having the fbi look into them, but that official was overruled by more senior political appointees in doj. they insisted, no, the fbi needs to look into

do you have any surprise left in you, claire, that the gop seems cool with this? >> no. and, by the way, how phony all the republicans talking about how, you know, biden needs to be tougher on putin. putin wants trump back in there. he loves donald trump as president of the united states. putin has his way with donald trump. and all those republican senators that are gnashing their teeth about this know that. now, i'm going to take just a minute of personal privilege here, brian williams. i'm pretty sure i don't get to be on the screen with you again. and i'm sorry. i know you hate this. but let me just tell you. intellect and humor are a deadly combination, and you, my friend, have both of those immense qualities. and i just -- i think all of us think the world of you and i'm going to miss you terribly. >> thank you so much, senator claire, ashley parker, jonathan carl. don't tell abc you've been on this show a dozen times. what they don't know can't hurt them. you're all friends of this broadcast for a reason. >> i loved every minute of it, brian. i loved every minute

apparently most of the gop still runs in desperate fear of the former president. in terms of the other parts of our agenda, we are heavily focused on passing and if it structure bill. which we did for four years. the republican congress talked about infrastructure and never got it done. we did. we passed a rescue plan that got half the kids out of poverty and helped speed vaccinations. we are on the brink of passing the build back better bill to address the need of families to find affordable childcare and be able to afford college and the ability of people to put a roof over their head. our domestic policy agenda is brought, why the supported by the public and part of that agenda that people also care about is whether we still have a democracy in a few years. we are going to have to be able to demote, meet economic needs. at the same time, make sure their vote matters in the future, that they can vote in the future. we have to be able to do both. >> i join my colleagues in saying that this congress -- i have had the opportunity to vote on three of the most transf

that gop will take power. watch. >> we are going to take power after this next election, and when we do, it's not going to be the days of paul ryan and trey gowdy, and no real oversight, and no real subpoenas. it's going to be the days of jim jordan and marjorie taylor greene and dr. gosar, and myself doing everything to get the answers to these questions. >> look, that's what you all want? that's what you all get. meanwhile, there is real work to be done in this country, and our democracy is at risk from the assault on the vote. listen to what the former president barack obama says about that tonight. >> unfortunately we've got one party that actually doesn't want to see government work and get stuff done, and rather than argue based on their ideas, they're trying to tilt the playing field, and they're not even waiting for election day to do it. you know, their plan is to control state legislatures and congressional delegations before a single vote is cast. that's in the how democracy is supposed to work. and

but in america the gop has no problem with it. this is the same donald trump who really is the bull connor of the -- he wanted to use violence against black protesters and their white allies who simply wanted equality for black people, simply wanted black lives to matter. the same donald trump who said nfl players who took a flee in silence, that was too much for them. called them s.o.b.s and said they should be fired. donald trump's consistent in one thing. his demonization of people of color for political gain. and sadly, joy, it plays well in this gop. >> he's even now mad at netanyahu. he said eff him because he congratulated joe biden. that guy was a complete sycophant to him. anything trump wanted he sort of made him a hero in his country, in israel, and the way he talked about jewish people, thinking american jewish people were citizens of israel. all of that stuff. netanyahu was fine with it. and now he's like eff him, he congratulated biden. i want to talk to you about this other thing because we've had this rash of repub

leaning districts, drawing voting rights challenge from the gop today. states like ohio which voted for nonpartisan redistricting overwhelmingly, only to have the state gop pushed through an absurd 13-2 map. out of the nine states that have completed their congressional maps today, there are only ten congressional seats out of 116. that's roughly half the number from those same states in the last election cycle, according to the project. anyone with an interest in this smooth functioning democracy should see the danger in this. bipartisan margins are the way most meaningle legislation passes to criminal justice reform. but the numbers of competitive swing declined dramatically over the past 25 years. there were 164 swing seats back in 1997. by 2017, it was down to 72. with safe seats skyrocketing for both parties and bits to get much worse. the decline in swing districts has led to the decline in both parties and that's a problem for the whole republican, not just the republican party. that's your reality check. michael? >> you know, i said at the outset

and may not be as fun for them with the gop majority. the one democrat governor who has shown some sense is jared policy of colorado. >> the end of the medical emergency. people who want to be protected are the emergency adults of public health doesn't tell people what to wear. it is not their job. public health, it should always decrease anything but that's not something you require, you don't tell people what to wear. if you are vaccinated that is your choice, i respect that but it is your fault when you are in the hospital with covid. >> for the democrats especially reasonable statements the crazies in his own party are blasting him as a heretic. this proves the point the wild left-wing activists will not tolerate any deviation from their failed policies, they just love and was spending of the stakeholders, mask mandates, ripping down searches and, diversity, equity and inclusion curriculum at school. all this may make you popular on social media but none of it works in the real world. so democrats are facing a difficult dilemma here.

expanding the gop's alternate reality. bringing with it real consequences bound to dominate the next election. plus the politics of removing roe. if the supreme court does it, expect 50 new battles in the gop's war to push full reproductive rights. are democrats ready to fight? >>> also the remain in mexico policy is back and expanding. why has the biden administration chosen to do that? their goal is to end it. >>> and ahead the struggles of being undocumented in this country. an author takes us behind her new family portrait. a new hour of american voices starts right now. >>> let's begin this hour with the gop's campaign of lies and the far reaching consequences for the american people and for democracy. nbc news out with a new report on how two election workers in georgia are suing the right wing media website, the gateway pundit, for defamation. a site claimed ruby freeman and her daughter, shea moss, manipulated ballots during the counting process. they did not, according to an examination by the georgia secretary of

election, but it's this kind of race, phil, that will shape what kind of senate they become and the gop becomes in the years ahead. more of a donald trump party or more of a traditionalist mitch mcconnell and dick shelby party. >> and you talk about where trump has influence on primeries. you're looking at georgia and donald trump made that republican candidate. it's herschel walker, by all accounts running against raphael warnock. warnock won his senate runoff on january 5th and president biden flipped georgia for the first time since 1992 if i remember correctly. what are you looking at in this race right now? >> well, i think georgia once again is going to be the epicenter for the battle for the control of the senate. democrats see this as a state that's been trending purpose. they see herschel walker as a really flawed canned day. he has a trail of allegations behind him involving problematic behavior and i think stays' abrams jumping into the governor's race and ensuring voting rights will be center stage, democrats see that favoring them but republicans have warmed up to walker in

people are fed up with joe biden and his awful policies and will vote against them but the gop has to decide, doesn't want to be an actual major contender and push back on these things that violate civil liberties and market or keep going down this path that's stretchy and populist and nationalist and fickle to everything they say they stand for? if they decide to go to the path of actually winning, they have strong contenders, the santos is a palpable version of trump and some people like rand paul who have done a good job maintaining credibility the past five years working with different factions of the gop and bringing people together, having fluent. rand paul voted against trump more than any other republican and liked by the base and trump himself. these people are serious leaders with serious solutions hoping to see them rise up the people who are out, i agree on this, nikki hailey, kristi know when people look at her congressional record on foreign policy and chris christie, they are going to be forgotten, they are totally out of the party. >> i already forgot chris christie.

we have 17%, of the gop. that used violence to correct that situation, and they believe it's appropriate. we wrote this op-ed. to correct that failure of imagination. that it can happen. that americans are going after it right now. and offering mitigating opportunities to slow down the risk. >> i want to read some of the prescriptions you have. before i get to, that one more follow-up question. my read on what happened when you read what was happening at the pentagon, and milley and esper, again the fundamental small democratic cultural egos of the armed forces, at least at the top level, really did hold. and a deep level, the oath of the constitution, and this is not with the armed forces should ever, do is interfere in an election. that held, i think your concern though, is that could be a road in sustained attempts by the ex president, and his facilitators. to eat into that belief, at least among folks that are in the armed forces, which of course is 1.5 million people. >> indeed there is an active movemen

the maga riot committee wants to talk to gop congressman jim jordan, one of trump's fierce loyalists in congress who admitted to speaking with trump on january 6th. the committee writing we understand that you had possibly multiple communications with trump and they want to discuss each such communication with you in detail. jordan has previously dodged questions about his contact with trump on that day. >> did you talk to the former president that day? >> i've talked to the former president umpteen times. >> i mean on january 6th, congressman. >> yes. i mean i talked to the president -- i've talked to the president so many -- i can't remember all the days that i've talked to him. but i've certainly talked with the president. >> did you speak with him before, during or after the capitol was attacked? >> i'd have to go -- i spoke with him that day after. i think after. i don't know if i spoke with him in the morning or not. i just don't know. >> he just doesn't know. the committee is about to find out the facts. we don't know if jordan will comply with this request. they can issue a s

they represent gop districts in states biden won. a adam kinsinger decided not to run again and both won districts that biden won easily and now they're facing possible extinction by redistricting while carter members of the said digs caucus look likely to emerge unscathed from the process. think about the message that sends. trying to overturn an election is politically safer than standing up for basic principles of our democracy because we need more independent minded folks in congress, not less. take text as that gave two congressional seats due to massive population growth in usu urban areas. people increase the number of safe gop districts while reducing competitive districts strong voting rights challenge from the doj today or states like ohio, which voted for non-partisan redistricting 2018 overwhelmingly only to have the state gop push through an absurd 13-2 map which is now headed to the state supreme court. in fact, out of the nine states that have completed their congressional maps today, there are only ten competitive con
