the house should work now. it is in one step that could lead to greater steps, it could create a moment where 150 new members enter and members think, what else these to change? maybe this is the moment to think about how the house could work better. i don't think it is a magic bullet, i do not think that by itself it would transform all the problems, but if we ask ourselves, why are those not changing now? the power of standing inertia has a lot to do with it, the sense that members have that things cannot change. none of them are happy with the status quo. no one says, this place is great. yet he say, what don't you like, they talk about the schedule and budget. you can change the schedule and the budget. that has not occurred to a lot a backbench members. by creating a moment of change, you stand a better chance to enable those other changes to happen. it is a change good in itself but also much drive others. jonah: so, ruth, does any of this make you nervous? what are some of the reservations that you might

of housing and urban development. but, compared to the military budget it is like a drop in the bucket would be enough to end homelessness and provide housing for everyone who needs it. so that nobody became homeless anymore. host: in a report to congress, the national alliance to end homelessness said that african-americans make up 13% of the general population more than 40% of the homeless population. similarly american indians, alaska natives, hawaiian natives or pacific islanders or those who have two or more races makeup eight abortionist -- a disproportionate share of the homeless population. whites and asians are significantly underrepresented. what are causing these differences and the racial breakdown of homelessness? guest: i think you know, one of the things that we first figured out when we started trying to get better data about who is homeless in the united states really a couple of decades ago now is just what we suspected, but did not have the data to show and now we have the data to show it. homelessn

gianno, did it help that the white house, jen psaki came out slamming manchin's reversal, the white house says that manchin went back on his word. does this help considering nancy pelosi said it herself, we will get this done in the new year? how does that look like they're goings to bring these folks, including joe manchin, together in the new year to get this done? >> that's a great question. no, they're not helping themselves. aren't these the same tactics that they said were unpresidential and used by donald trump? why so while they're making things personal when it comes to policy that the entire country would need to embrace and the entire country hasn't embraced build back better. if you look at polling from earlier this month actually, an npr polled showed that 41% of americans, only 41%. 36 of independents approved and 13% of republicans. this was not a popular piece of legislation. joe manchin might have done them a favor if you want to be honest about it. the democratic party has been looking at part of the american people as out of touch individuals, this is the most reasonabl

affordable housing. how's that going? it's not been going very well for the government at all. and frank, the 4 years and 10 so far prices have rapidly increased to the extent that it's actually creating homelessness, and costing the government a $1000000.00 a day, just an emergency and transitional housing. so how did i get to the point where there's a chronic housing shortage with president government would suggest that it was the previous, a national government, but they know as well as we know on the ground that it's been decades in the making a by governments on the right and the left have that a real desire to have a market driven economy because it means a healthy economy. they haven't been building the houses, the level that they did in the fifties and sixties. and you know, the population has gone from 2000000 to 5000000 and we were just in the situation. now that seems impossible to turn around, but i'm sure we will at some time. so is it possible to come point one reason or several reasons beh

a fire is damaged astray, the as old parliament house in cambra. the cause of the blaze still unclear. it's now popular tourist attraction and houses the museum of a strange democracy. it's been 10 years since kim jogan became the leader of north korea. he took control in 2011 after the death of his father, kim jong il. while his leadership style is widely criticized few dare to question his grip on power. dotala pezora on reports. he became north korea's leader before turning 30 at the time. many hope king jam own would lead the country into a new era. one though it opened the reclusive nation and its economy to the world, the sun. okay. and i'm wondering if other got instead, kim's decade empower, has been defined by brutal violence, nuclear weapons and meetings with donald trump. later, we will have to work with them. it wasn't easy to get here. and all prejudices and practices worked as obstacles in a way forward, but we are became all of them and were here today. unprecedented meetings to gradually the nuclear rise, the north in exchange for s

tonight's house vote expected shortly to cite former white house chief of staff mark meadows for contempt of congress. certainly, speaks loudly on its own. after all, it's not often that a former presidential right-hand man faces criminal charges for anything, let alone obstructing the inquiry into the attempt to overthrow democracy itself. that much is historic. but like every other development in the 11 months since the former president incited a mob to attack the very site where the vote tonight takes place, there is so much more leading up to and surrounding it. for instance, in tonight's floor debate, members of the select committee revealed more of what was in the documents that mark meadows gave the committee and now refuses to answer questions about. >> we've learned that mr. meadows made a surprise visit to a state-run audit in georgia, which led to the now-infamous call in which mr. trump improperly asked the georgia secretary of state to find votes. we need to talk to mr. meadows about that. we need, also, to ask him about text messages which he provided to our committee that s

so house and senate are different. the way i have seen the summit change over the years that i've been here and watched the senate , it changing dramatically. procedure was developed to stop endless debate. it is called the cloture rule. and it was done basically to figure out some way to shut people up. and it has worked quite well. it has had a number of ways you can have it invoked, it is changed, the number of votes and is taken has changed. but always it was used in this -- i don't want to do anything, in a non-politically correct way, but in a gentleman's way. i know that is the improper term now. but it was done very rarely. the filibuster did not come very often. the civil rights movement. big issues like that. but now, since the last 10 years, basically republicans have used it for everything. everything. i will give you an example. we can debate lyndon johnson's term as majority leader. we know how long he served. and we can discuss and analyze how many filibusters he had to overcome. most people say one or t

house right now. they would like to enact their own spending priorities and either plus up different accounts or decreased accounts that they do not think need as much money. the levels that the government is operating under our spending levels agreed to under donald trump and a republican senate and democratic house. ideally, for the party in the power, want to get your stamp on government. the democrats are not able to do that with this continuing resolution. every agency has people who are not as political party leaders. they have to deal with our spending levels and cannot plan. they do not know what will be the case for the rest of the fiscal year. let us say they do agree to something. then you have this truncated fiscal year where you are only able to work on new projects and priorities, things like the infrastructure bill, that art these different programs that, ideally, you would want to fend at their fullest level. you can only do that for about half the fiscal year. in the process starts ag
