but it came at the end of a string of fascinating endorsements, in which people like ted kennedy in a similar dynamic to the polo endorsement were turning in effect against people they've been with for a longer period of time, been alive with for a longer period of time. -- like intended katie's case, it with hillary clinton, turning against her -- you saw colin powell turn against his 25-year-old friend, john mccain, to endorse barack obama. the >> right, and i think lawrence, importantly because they thought in both cases that they were moving towards a brand of politics, and obama, that was more optimistic more idealistic, if not totally pure. something more noble. when ted kennedy turned against the clinton, it was specifically because of what he's seen both clinton do in that race, do it nevada, do in south carolina, ted kennedy was disgusted by bill clinton's race baiting in the race. and what pushed him in the arms of obama was a rejection of that kind of politics. similarly with colin powell, powell had been watching for two years, obama and mccain had both been lobbying powel

we don't have ted cruzs over here. we do, but if they step out of line, we don't have lindsey grahams over here. we have people who actually -- we'll force them to pay off the debt, so the united states, they're dysfunctional. so look to us. now, of course, the great irony is that we never have this problem when the republicans are in the white house. not because they're more responsible. we have all republicans. republicans are less responsible with deficits and debt than anybody. donald trump won up the biggest debt in the history of the united states when he was in office. what did mitch mm come and the republicans say? of course, we're going to raise the debt ceiling. if we don't do it, it will trash the economy. it's the responsible thing to do. what did mitch start saying a couple weeks ago? we have to do it. we have to raise the debt ceiling. but we're not going to do it. ted cruz is not going to do it. lindsey graham is not going to do it. donald trump from mar-a-lago, i mean the guy never pays any of his debts

ted kennedy was disgusted by bill clinton's race baiting in the race. and a large part of what pushed hum into the arms of obama was a rejection of that kind of politics. similarly with colin powell. powell had been watching, had been -- for two years obama and mccain had both been lobbying powell for the endorsement. and powell intended to stay neutral. and then he watched mccain choose palin, start using bill airs as a weapon against oep. suggesting that he was seeing the very good rallies at the end the campaign which were a foreshadowing of everything we saw with trump. and that was really what turned powell in the end away from muk cane as much as towards obama, turned way from mccain. as much as it uplifted obama, it shattered mccain who had a moment, a dark moment at the endst campaign and said, colin powell is against me. what have i become? you saw mccain in the last two weeks of that campaign sort of pull back from the edge of where he taken his campaign and could see kind of powell's like cassandra telling mccain where the republican party wa

myself, ted lieu, val demings, a group of us on the house judiciary committee who again experienced the stonewalling of the trump administration first happened a year and a half ago proposed changing our rules to codify and authorize the use of inherent contempt. inherent contempt would function very similar to the way in which criminal contempt of congress functions if that referral is implemented. so a long-winded way of saying it would include fines, monetary penalties. in the past inherent contempt has been used by the congress in the senate and house with penalties of imprisonment as well. so congress is not powerless. it would not require the passage of the resolution in the senate and only require a majority vote in the house of representatives. so we think our resolution is a prudent step forward and will certainly be encouraging our colleagues to take it up. >> wait, that's key. you wouldn't need the senate. when i saw this earlier today, i thought obviously there's not going to be ten republican votes for this in the senate. your theory of the case here is this would be a simp

. >> i know world-renowned business travel health expert senator ted cruz has made that point, but i wouldn't say that that is widely acknowledged or echoed by business leaders. >> tonight secretary-treasurer janet yellen told cbs one proposal to pay for the social spending has been mischaracterized seeing the push for banks to report transactions over $600 to the irs can better collect taxes is not an effort for the government to overlook average americans' pocketbooks. republicans largely disagree. >> bret: jacqui heinrich on the north lawn. thank you. president biden will meet with the leadership of the ports of los angeles and long beach along with union officials to discuss the growing supply chain crisis. international monetary fund says the disruptions are hampering the u.s. recovery from the coronavirus pandemic. dozens of cargo ships are anchored across the southern california coast and will be for several days, we are told. national correspondent is at the port of los angeles tonight. >> if you noticed a short supply in halloween decorations, just wait until christmas. spea

texas senator ted cruz wants them grounded. >> their entire political strategy is based on secrecy. joe biden and kamala harris caused this. and their entire strategy is ignore it and they are counting on the corrupt corporate media to ignore it as well. so, of course they fly in the middle of the night because they have no defense. >> the world atlantic airlines plane has really hopped around. last friday starting at the crack of down at 6:37 a.m. it flew from mcallen, texas, to mexico. a possible expulsion flight sending central american migrants back to mexico. it returned to mcallen and then jumped to el paso. and the 2:04 p.m. headed east to jacksonville, florida before finally flying west to west chester touching down there at 9:52 p.m. >> i'm not sure it's in the middle of the night. >> jen psaki says the administration is only carrying out the law under which known as the federal flores agreement the administration has to release unaccompanied minors within 20 days, which is why they are being flown to places that can take them. >> it's no surprise that kids can be seen trav

also aligned herself with senator cruz is questioning the results, saying, i actually subscribe to the ted cruz school of thought on, this his position is fundamentally that 74 million people voted for the president, and as many as 50% of them believe the election is rigged. we should go through the exercise to the full extent we can, having a process it's open and transparent, to show that these results are accurate. >> that's basically the laundered version of the big lie. now here she is today, an abc's the view, clearly trying to make or run of being a conservative talking. head to your credit. that shows host, as skeptical questions and pressed, her but ultimately her message, was trump was bad, but i still agree with him on a lot of things, i'm here to give you a fresh face vision of trumpism, with a slightly lower percentage of sedition. >> you know who this person is. he's the person who is grabbed by the you know why. and you're working for him. >> i didn't have any illusions about who the president was. i will say, this i believe strongly in his economic agenda. i believed in his

years of being impersonated by jason sudeikis on "snl," the senator does his best impersonation of ted la sow. the

. -- >> all right, so we jumped in to hear texas senator ted cruz address this situation. i want to bring in catherine who ran the active shooter program at the fbi and the author of "stop the killing" how to end the mass shooting crisis. i think we heard a couple interesting things talking about tracking the license plate here. i know that high school is on a toll road that is a plate by mail toll road. you will have exactly those kind of cameras outside of that high school. you saw the buses out there outside. talk to me about the law enforcement response that we're seeing and not seeing to the shooting as this all develops. >> i think that is a good point, what you're seeing and what you're not. what you're seeing is very visual. the buses leaned up, that is result of shooting after shooting through the years and law enforcement perfecting and altering the way they respond to the incidents. and make sure that the students feel they're safe once a shooting occurs. you see the buses where the kids get out, you send them a reunification center so you don't have the crazy s

one i have no doubt that senators like ted cruz and tom cotton were looking to create some viral moments that would help pad their campaign war chest as they look toward 2024. something i have been covering for the past year and a half. the other thing though is they are speaking to a large concern that parents have around the country. and i spoke to republicans all day about this that is knee deep in campaigns. that they don't like the curricula coming out of their schools. they don't like the way their school districts are handling covid. they don't like the way school boards have been responding and because of the pandemic, and because the pandemic forced them to be more engaged with the curricula that their students are learning, and with the way schools are being run, you have parents that are just so much more engaged and republicans believe that this going to help them recover a lot of lost ground in the suburbs that they lost throughout the trump years. and cost them the house majority in 2018. >> bret: i mean, we will see. the tea party had its own power and attention. this coul

. >> senator ted cruz of texas appeared on the senate floor last night to say the deal mcconnell struck with democrats was a mistake. >> i believe democratic leader schumer was on the verge of surrendering, and then unfortunately yesterday republicans blinked. i think that was a mistake. i understand why republican leadership blinked. i wish they hadn't. i wish they hadn't because i believe we were on the verge of victory. chuck schumer won this game of chicken. as two trumps drove on this country road, one of them was going to turn or you were going to have a lot of dead chickens. i wish republicans hadn't blinked. we shouldn't have done that. >> joining us now, nbc news correspondent ali vitali. thank you for being there. i want to speak about the language specifically that senator cruz used, acknowledging the game of chicken, putting the nation's health at risk, saying this is a political game, a standoff. cruz and others criticized mitch mcconnell. wauc us through where republicans are. . >> look, clearly for people like cruz and graham, they threw in with the former president on th

. >> we couldn't get comprehensive immigration reform when we had ted kennedy and john mccain and president george w. bush. no chance in the world you'll get it now. you work in the white house and you are choosing every day between the urgent and the important. this is important but it's not urgent. the infrastructure bill is urgent. health care is urgent. covid is urgent. the build back better plan is urgent. he's doing the right thing and focusing on that. the border is an issue to be managed. it is not legislation to be passed. >> astead, i want to bring up something else president biden said yesterday in terms of whether or not he'd be open to getting rid of the filibuster. at least just to pass some sort of voter protection or voting rights bill. one of the reasons we like interviewing joe biden is because sometimes he accidentally says what he actually thinks. take a listen. >> when it comes to voting rights -- >> voting rights particularly is consequential. >> when it comes to voting rights, you would entertain the notion of doing away with the filibuster on that one issue? is that

out part of having a free country, and i have to agree with ted cruz on this, is allowing citizens to get that people in power. it's almost a definition of freedom. that could mean yelling at the president, yelling at elective representative, are yelling at a school board meeting. or a covered school board meeting as a reporter, and people yell. it can get very ugly. and you know it's good in a way, of course it's very close to a line you don't want to cross which is a line to threats and menace and attempt to use either explicitly or implicitly a kind of threatening atmosphere to course officials into not doing their job or do what you want them to do. and we have seen threats escalating against all sorts of officials, just today in michigan after we had already put together this monologue in fact, a meeting hosting by the commission in charge of the district was delayed for hours over a death threat. the idea of explicitly using violence against political foes is also really bump pulling up against certain republicans of the american. here's an example of what that looks like. just

and you look at the way the -- being ted cruz in 2018. you looked at the way a lot of democrats ran better in 2020 than the head and longtime. there is a period we thought there was some slim hope that joe biden might take the state. you see texas republican saying, we can see the end of the road here. so they're trying, to ram through as much extreme legislation is possible, it is quick a period of time is possible. and the effect of that, as that matthew dowd, is his entering this race suggests, that this reason 2022, for lieutenant governor, is going to be nationalized in a way that no statewide races ever been before. in terms of money immediate tension. this is the place that is really the sharp end of this, fear of the trump revolution. and that has made this a place where the intensity on the ground, is unprecedented, in my experience. doing this for almost 30 years now. >> so john, there is another approach, that is possible. and it's actually the approach we used to see. way back in the 20th century. and it's that, when an electo

urging the public to report threats to the fbi, a directive that has republicans including texas senator ted cruz outraged. >> the attorney general told the department of justice that those parents of school boards should be treated as threats and as domestic terrorists. >> cruz and fellow republicans on the senate judiciary committee sent the attorney general a letter today demanding to know why the justice department is involved at all. they write: the fbi should not be involved in quashing and criminalizing discourse that is well beneath violent acts. interest groups representing school boards are thanking the justice department for getting involved. but parent, like amy, who are attending a summit hosted by the family research council says they have no plans to stay quiet. >> we have everything riding against what is happening in our schools and it makes even more people want to speak out. >> parents here at the summit say of course they don't want to see anyone get hurt, but they worry the government is simply going to be bullying people into silence. as for the justice department, bret
