and he listed joe biden, any listed alexandria ocasio-cortez among others. and here is escalating. and we have been pointed out about that killing on the animated videos that is to stir and bone-chilling. they slice their spinal cord with two summits rice cords moving in opposite directions. i found that absolutely bone-chilling. so for him to say that he didn't know that somehow it was a joke, and for members of the house not to step up is really, for me, would've been despicable. if they did, i would absolutely honor that they took away his assignments, and honored representative in putting that motion forward. but this is not the end. this is the first step. and again, i'm looking forward to attorney general merrick garland's charges against my brother. >> when your brother did speak to day, he did not apologize. and he did blame his staff. let's listen to what he had to say, today. >> i do not in spells violence among anyone. i've never have. it was not my purpose to make anyone upset. i voluntarily took the cartoon down, not because it was itself a, threat but because some tho

gosar as a cartoon hero attacking a giant with alexandria ocasio-cortez's face with a sword. gosar flying through the air, swinging two swords at a character with president biden's face. and tonight the wanna-be anime hero congressman says the video was not meant to depict any harm or violence against anyone portrayed in the anime. the video is truly a symbolic portrayal of a fight over immigration policy. right. imagine what would happen if you did something like that to a colleague. you'd lose your job, but not congressman gosar. what do you expect from someone who defended the bloodthirsty trump supporters at the capitol? >> outright propaganda and lies are being used against law-abiding citizens, especially trump voters. as a result, the doj is harassing, harassing peaceful patriots across the country. >> congresswoman ocasio-cortez tweeting, and i quote, a creepy member i work with, and i quote, shared a fantasy video of him killing me and he will face no consequences from kevin mccarthy, who no surprise hasn't returned calls from cnn. what has happened to this country?

congressmember paul gosar for posting an animated video on social media where he murders congressmember alexandria ocasio-cortez. we will hear we will hear aoc's speech. then we will talk to slate eagle analyst dahlia lithwick. >> all nine of the plaintiffs who were harmed are saying, we want money damages. we want to know who your funding sources are. we want to understand how these networks have hate groups work together. amy: finally, "the dawn of everything: a new history of humanity." we speak to the archaeologist david wengrow about his new book with david graeber the pioneering anthropologist who died last year, just weeks after finishing the epic work. they examine how indigenous cultures contribute greatly to what we have come to understand a so-called western ideas of democracy and equality, but these contributions have been erased from history. >> constantly people saying, well, this idea [indiscernible] amy: all that and more, coming up. welcome to democracy now!, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman. the white house had wednesday it will expand u.s. vaccine manu

because of that video he tweeted showing him killing congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez. an animae video. we won't show you that, but we will show you what is going down on the house floor. we'll bring that vote to you live when it happens. and i want to bring in our team covering the capitol for us. ali vitali, john bresnahan is here with us as well. ali, if we have you, what is the deal and when -- we don't have ali vitali. bres, do we have you? because we're juggling a lot here as we're coming on the air with this live breaking coverage. you're with us, right? >> i'm with you. you can hear me? >> i sure can. bring me up to speed because i know that we've been seeing a number of speeches here including alexandria ocasio-cortez herself. speaker pelosi and others. what has stood out to you? >> well, alexandria ocasio-cortez spoke, gosar spoke, he down played the significance of the video. and you talked about this anime video that where he kills ocasio-cortez in the video and threatens the president of the united states, president biden. he did not apologize. he tried to

today alexandria ocasio-cortez said, it's been well over a week. he not only has not apologized. he not only has not made any sort of contact or outreach, neither he nor the republican leader of the party, but he has also doubled down. today paul gosar said the video is, quote, funny and completely harmless with kevin mccarthy clinging to his cowardly silence about the video and doing nothing about paul gosar. nancy pelosi decided to do to herself. she is going to bring in a censure vote against paul gosar to the house floor tomorrow. tonight the house rules committee voted on party lines to send a censure resolution to the house floor for that vote tomorrow. the resolution will strip paul gosar of his committee assignments in the house. he will be removed from the house oversight committee where alexandria ocasio-cortez is also a member, and he will also be removed from the house natural resources committee. two republicans, liz cheney and adam kinzinger, support censuring paul gosar. if the house votes to censure paul gosar tomorrow, congressman gosar must stand in the well of

that is where we must draw the line independent of party, identity, or belief. >> congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez other members also chose to speak. >> i am a victim of violence. i know what it's like. i also was in that gallery, clambering for life, when the shots rang out in the speakers lobby. violence against women in politics is a global phenomenon. a 2016, there was a survey in the union found that 80% of women policy -- parliamentarians have received psychological violent. 44% have received threats of death, rape, beatings, or abductions. the intent of these online threats against women, is clear. silence them. strip them of their power, and discourage them from running for office. >> congresswoman jackie speier of california is also the sponsor of the resolution of this censure for paul gosar. also sherrilyn ifill congress will join me later. in recent new york times pace, debbie dingell socialist and by men with assault rifles outside of her home last year after she was denounced by tucker carlson on his fox news show. she also showed a portion of a voice mail one of hundre

in washington, alexandria hoff, fox news. molly: thank you, alexandria. arthel. arthel: the battle resumes on capitol hill monday over president biden's roughly $2 trillion spending plan, but a speedy journey to the vote in the senate does not appear likely. moderate democrats joe manchin and kyrsten sinema oppose parts of the plan as well as the price tag. let's bring in tara westwood, politics and investigative reporter for for the washington examiner. let's start with the state of play first. how fierce of a battle can we expect next week, and what items are the in the bill are at the center of the debate? >> yeah, i think this could definitely be a more difficult journey for the bill now that's it's in the senate, and you have senators like bernie sanders who are not happy that the state and local tax deduction cap was lifted in the house. they think that is essentially a tax break to the rich, that's something that blue statehouse members wanted in the bill. and then in the more centrist end of the spectrum, joe manchin and kyrsten sinema, as you mentioned,

we seen a couple members of congress and the squad rashida tlaib and alexandria ocasio-cortez pushing to lower bail and empty prisons. meanwhile you mentioned what was happening in san francisco bay area where looters are running wild because of the city had sent a message that it would not prosecute property crimes up to $950. now they're stealing everything. these are all the result of policy that have been enacted in the last couple of years and were getting a hangover, really, really fast. gerry: it does look as though democrats seem to have abandoned many of the principles that we understand about protection of the citizen and the rights of individuals because of the progressive as byron describes it, progressive dominance in the last couple of years. as a democratic party getting this right? >> i think we were getting everything wrong is to connect an increase in crime to partisanship to blame democrats entirely for an increase in crime that is pandemic driven. let's keep in mind it's an increase in violent crime not property crime. i don't know where to begin to unpack all of t

you heard vilma lucian talking about alexandria ocasio-cortez saying you have to double down e policies, what is your take? >> chana come i think the president obviously needs to focus on bipartisan infrastructure bill passed on friday the 13 house republicans. a good number and a great thing for the american people $1.2 trillion that will go to improve infrastructure and improve broadband, cleaned up lead pipes in our communities. so all things this president can focus on comic campaign on and midterms, there will be a lot of ribbon-cutting and a lot of republicans who actually voted against this bill that will be at those ribbon-cutting's in the next couple of months and years to come. so this president needs to focus on the economy as we come out of this covid crisis, focus on the infrastructure bill that was just passed resignedly for the american people. that is a road map for success now that we are a year out today from the midterms. >> shannon: trying to get some advice road map success writing in "new york times" editorial with coauthor auntie stein. senator joe manchin and sen

does he need to act on his sociopathic fantasy for representative alexandria ocasio-cortez? i am very concerned for she and other members. and this is absolutely unacceptable. i do not understand it. and i'm livid, lawrence. >> congresswoman ocasio-cortez tweeted a reply tonight. she said "so while i was en route to glasgow, a creepy member i work with who fund raises for neo-nazi groups shared a fantasy video of him killing me. and he'll face no consequences because leader mccarthy cheers him on with excuses." she obviously puts up with more threats than most people in the history of the house of representatives, but what is new is that those threats are coming from a member of the house of representatives. >> and you would think that those very members alongside this person would hold him accountable. no. they leave it to family members to come forward in the public and it's on a show like yours, which by the way, thank you for letting me speak out here again. this is my first time on your show, but i appreciate any opportunity to put a spotlight on this awful man. i mean,

the problem is the alexandria ocasio-cortezs over the world are not going away. that creates a problem for how you get all of these things you want to get passed, done. how you get joe manchin and kristin sinema to go along or how you get the 13 republicans? john: the democratic caucus is not like the republican caucus. it does not look like a country club board of directors. we have an incredibly diverse, ideologically, demographically, gender, etc. the process is pretty messy and it has hurt us. i will be the first to say that. we are going to get some stuff done. that is important. it will be impact. as well. you have to deal with that, not now, not in the first quarter or the second quarter, you guys would have to deal with the effect that you do not have anything to run on. i hope you have plans of what you are going to do about the border and what you are going to do about how we perceive the broad or what you want to do about voters who have lost confidence in biden's ability to govern. not his ability to understand government. john: let us challenge. i do

but alexandria ocasio-cortez added the u.s. has "not recovered our moral authority" on climate action and that the u.s. would have to prove itself by actually slashing its emissions. >> we cannot actually just pursue decarbonization. it has to center a benefit for the working class, for the vulnerable, for frontline communities, people of color, when men, underserved communities, and it has to a justice and job focus in order for us to meet our emissions goals. amy: we will go to glasgow for the latest after headlines. meanwhile, in washington, d.c., calls are mounting for congressional action against republican congressmember paul gosar after he posted an animated video on social media depicting himself killing congressmember alexandria ocasio-cortez and attacking president biden. house speaker nancy pelosi has called on house minority leader kevin mccarthy to request an investigation from the house ethics committee and law enforcement. paul gosar's own sister, jennifer gosar, called him a sociopath and said his behavior could

you had alexandria ocasio-cortez, the democrat from the bronx that obviously was the target of this video. you know, speaking out against this. she was given a big long chunk of time saying this is code when they go after women. that was something that jackie speier a democratic congress woman from california, that's what she alluded to her. the other thing that i thought was interesting and surprises that the democrats didn't do this, you have to keep your language during floor debate within the decorum and parliamentary language within the house. that did not happen at certain times and you didn't have neither democrats nor republicans flagging the other side. one thing that caught my attention that went by the wayside, you could have your language striken from the record here. the republican from colorado came up and talked about ilhan omar and called her a quote member of the jihad squad. that is something that a lot of republicans said the democrats had not been sanctions some of their own. kevin mccarthy, the minority leader talked earlier this year when you had the derek chauvin ve

calls for an investigation into a video posted by a congressman depicting violence against democrat alexandria ocasio-cortez. gop congressman paul gosar is defending the video, which also depicts him attacking president biden with swords. abc's ike ejiochi is in washington with the very latest. ike, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, mona. democrats are demanding republicans take action against paul gosar after the congressman released a parody video showing himself killing a colleague. this morning, a video posted by republican congressman paul gosar depicting violence has been removed from his twitter account after gosar faced fierce criticism. >> first of all, he has no business being in congress. he should have never been elected. he doesn't belong there. >> reporter: gosar says his team created the video showing a cartoon version of himself killing congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez then charging at president biden with two swords. twitter flagged the tweet saying it violates its rules. an aide tells abc news, gosar then deleted the video on twitter, but overnight it remained po

jon: alexandria, thank you. the creator of a controversial 1619 project, nicole hannah jones is coming out with a new book next week expanding on her earlier work. the book is 1619 project, new origin story. double sound on the argument that slavery was at the center of the nation's founding. that idea received immense criticism and inspired legal action but despite the pushback, she's pushing her narrative even further releasing an additional 1619 project designed for children. the other hoping it will become a staple in classrooms across the country. it's been a shocking week in wisconsin from a murder trial of kyle rittenhouse the defendant major clashes between the judge and for prosecution. the trial is almost over but tensions are still running high wisconsin national guard has been put on standby ahead of monday's closing arguments. alexis is live in kenosha, wisconsin with the latest. >> good evening. we are hearing from the state of wisconsin there are about 500 national guardsmen on standby it just in

alexandria ocasio-cortez joining some of the members of her class there. they had their own press conference. the class of 2018. about how to approach the climate crisis. it gave us great hope. we had the highest level meetings there. were inspired what happened. it took a giant step forward. but we have to do our share, our fair share. what that's about is about health care for our children, clean air, clean water. it's about jobs, jobs, jobs. good-paying union jobs to keep us preeminent in green technology throughout the world. you heard me say it's a national security issue. as national security advisors tell us. competition for habitat and resources with drought and rising sea levels, etc., can cause conflict. and, of course, the moral obligation for us to hand this planet over to the next generation in a responsible way. for me, it's a religious thing. i believe it's god's creation. we have a moral obligation to be good stewards. but if you don't share that view, you must share the view that we have an obligation to future generations. so we're very e

he posted a video showing him killing democratic representative alexandria ocasio-cortez even as some gop members are also attacking their own. >>> aaron rodgers now says he takes full responsibility for misleading people about his covid vaccination status. is it enough though to repair the enormous damage from the misinformation he spread? we want to welcome our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm wolf blitzer and you're in "the situation room." >> this is cnn breaking news. >> we begin with the breaking news on this, the new flurry of subpoenas from the january 6th select committee. ten more trump allies were targeted. let's go straight to ryan nobles. ryan, now a total of what, 16 subpoenas have been issued in the past 24 hours alone. tell us about this new batch. >> that's right. this group of individuals that were targeted by the select committee today represent something very important. this is a group of people very close to the former president, donald trump, and they were in close proximity of him in the days leading up to the january 6 capitol insurrection

progressives are stressing it won't be big enough with alexandria ocasio-cortez telling the "new york times" why are we taking this as a legislative compromise when the opportunity is so much greater or when biden could do this stuff with the stroke of a pen and just reminding us that he is choosing not to? president biden holds jay powell can help keep inflation under control. >> in 2018 he was confirmed with 84 votes in the united states senator. >> then senator kamala harris wasn't one of them and she didn't attend today's ceremony. only appearing either. >> why is jay powell the right pick. >> a trump appointee focus more on climate. >> we have to make sure our financial system can withstand climate change and prepared to transition to clean energy. >> clean energy is a ways away though. thinking of tapping the strategic petroleum reserve after admitting it won't do much. >> probably reduce the price of gas maybe 18 cents or so. a gallon. >> the president celebrated his 79th birthday this weekend. this afew moments ago landed at fort bragg. during the trip down jen psaki was asked

and furthermore, alexandria ocasio-cortez deserves protection. and if you look at her tweets, she said another day at work because the system doesn't protect women of color. can we look at that for just a second, can we unpack that for a second? of course she's right. of course she's right. >> so just to be clear, when you've reached out to your arizona representatives, so congressman raul, you have spoken to him or never spoken to him? >> no, and he is not my representative. i don't live in arizona. i live in washington state. i'm represented by someone who has acted on my before. she called for an ethics investigation. and that was not followed through. and why? because there is evidence there. on more than one occasion, in fact when paul went to the uk to stump speech for tommy robinson who by the way was a felon, a felon in the united states for illegal immigration, right? isn't that lovely and ironic, but of course that is what these people are, when he went there, there were questions about the time he spent with steve ban nonand other whit

democratic democrat congresswoman representative alexandria ocasio-cortez calls the package watered down and she tells president biden to bypass congress and make the package or law. i spoke with house minority leader kevin mccourty-- kevin mccarthy on sunday morning futures after his epic speeches on a night. here's what he said. >> if it fails in the senate it dies, but if the senate changes, any senate-- changes have to come back to the house so we have another bite at the apple here and i want people to know it's in the bill. i want people to know what they are doing at this big government socialism isn't working. we now know that the president and the democrats have been lying to us all along saying the bill was paid for, but why? for bigger government. this is what happens when you have one party rule. maria: joining me now is pennsylvania congressman foreign affairs committee member dann meuser. great to see you and thank you for being here. your reaction to what happens now, the house obviously past that after kevin mccarthy's marathon long speech delayed it until the next mornin

and that is where we must draw the line independent of party, identity, or belief. >> congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez was not alone. other members also rose to speak about the increasing threats they have faced recently. >> i am a victim of violence. i know what it's like. i also was in the gallery clamoring for life when the shots rang out in the speakers' lobby. violence against women in politics is a global phenomenon. a 2016 survey by the interparliamentary union found 82% of women parliamentarians have experienced psychological violence. and 44% have received threats of death, rape, beatings, or abduction. the intent of these online threats against women is clear. silence them. strip them of their power. and discourage them from running for office. >> congresswoman jackie speier of california is also the sponsor of the resolution to censure paul gosar. she'll be joining me along with sheila jackson lee of texas in a bit. threats and violence are as best we can tell becoming more commonplace in politics. in a recent "new york times" piece, debbie dingell, democrat from michigan, sai

alexandria hoff live in washington, d.c. >> democrats have to rectify their messaging. when those surveyed asked who they would vote for if the mid-term elections said today 46% they would support a republican sxaird to 38% supporting a democrat. in the latest usa today poll biden's approval rating dropped to a new low to 38%. included in that 46% registered voters saying he has done a worse job than they expected. the survey was conducted prior to the passing of the bipartisan infrastructure bill friday. a steep hill to climb. here is senior advisor to the president cedric richmond appearing on "fox news sunday". >> the president has an ambitious plan for the american people, for the american economy and he will invest in them. >> fdr had a high approval rating and was elected president four times. this poll revealed that 2/3 of americans do not want biden to run for a second term. so what about his vice president? she is worse. the current approval rating of 28%. the most concrete test of the administration's popularity came last week when voters surviceed democrats b

. >> dagen: speaking of alexandria ocasio-cortez and rashida tlaib. i want them to go, go, go, keep at it. keep complaining about dangerous individuals who are being held on bail even in new york city where we had bail reform at the beginning of last year. and larson and child assaults, no bail. no free child, they tweaked it a little bit. but basically a dude can punch an old lady in the face and eyes back out on the street. i want him to go, go, go and continue to expose themselves for what they are and what they want, the more they spit in the faces of victims and their families, which is what you are doing with alexandria ocasio-cortez releasing this with people held on bail after this deadly murder. let them continue to attack or not stand up for innocent america. they don't care about safety and security for this country, they would rather coddle criminals to accumulate more power, so please keep jacking your jaws and this will end and it will end soon, because we always talk about new york city oh, it's new york city, no, it's not. it is many c

alexandria ocasio cortez and other house democrats say prisoners are being kept in jail longer than the squad thinks is necessary the group writing a letter, quote, we have grave concerns that excessive bail amounts, unnecessary pretrial detention and contributing to a humanitarian crisis in new york city's jail system as congresswoman rashida tlaib pressed over her support for the breathe act which would empty federal prisons in ten years. >> i think everyone is like we are going to release everybody. did you see how many people i mentally ill who are in prison? todd: can be on the streets of new york city. the congresswoman admitted some people legitimately belong behind bars. jillian: a fox news exclusive interview with kyle rittenhouse responding to claims he is a white supremacist, lodged by president biden during his campaign. >> defame in my character for him to say something like that. mister president, if i could say one thing to you i would urge you to go back and watch the trial and understand the facts before you make a statement. >> reporter: it is widely speculated rittenh

the one of him killing alexandria ocasio-cortez who spoke out today about it. >> it's pretty cut and dry. do you find -- does anyone in this chamber find this behavior acceptable? >> you don't need to hear it from her. the target of the tweet because it isn't okay, in any scenario, and i would bet that most in that chamber would agree. probably, the vast majority. but they couldn't bring themselves to say that. so instead, some went out of their way to come up with ridiculous excuses for why gosar should not be censured for posting a video of him striking aoc in the neck with a sword. >> today, we're critiquing paul gosar's anime. next week, we might be indicting the wily coyote for an explosive ordinance against the roadrunner. for democrats, this vote isn't about a video. it's about control. >> i lived in japan for several years. i speak japanese. i read and write japanese. this is an anime. [ speaking foreign language ] h h hily highly popular, stylized. >> they don't like freedom. you can see it. they don't like it. this is wrong. >> the left has nothing else to do but troll the

censure republican congressman paul gosar for the animated video depicting him killing congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez. what does it mean for democrats to provide accountability? >> it's just part of the embrace of violence that has begun to pervade the republican party. it is a very scary thing. there is actually some real consequences to this censure motion. the censure is meant to be embarrassing, but taking gosar off a committee is actually very significant in terms of his work as a congressman. the day-to-day work of congress is conducted in committees. if he can't serve on a major committee, that makes him very much a lesser figure in the house. so there's some teeth in this censure resolution, but perhaps the most significant part of it is that even though this is an acted out murder that he has taken part in, it's only the democrats who seem upset about it. >> governor kasich, you're a republican, the gop is turning a blind eye to the promotion of this violence by this congressman. but get this, the wyoming republican party voted to no longer recognize republican congresswoman li

alexandria huff is live in in washington with the latest. hi, alexandria. >> reporter: hi, arthel. the biden administration plans to fight the ruling which came out of the fifth circuit court of appeals in louisiana. the state's attorney general praised the decision, writing wg president will not impose the mandate without the checks and balances accorded by the cons constitution. the ruling halts the requirement for workers with more than 100 employees that was set to go into place january fourth with fines for companies that don't comply. >> employers were gearing up for the mandate. this does give them probably some extra time. it depends on how the courts rule after this. most employers are grateful for that extra time because there's a lot that's involved in operationalizing this. >> reporter: so far, the attorneys general in 11 states have filed lawsuits challenging the president's covid vaccine requirement. on friday, kansas' democratic governor came out against the mandate, in a statement she said this, quote, i don't believe this directive is the director the most effectiv

it's $3.27 at this exxon in alexandria, virginia. aaa says it's not demand. it's supply and that oil-producing nations might be constricting the supply a little bit, trying to reap some of their pandemic losses from last year when things were pretty cheap. >> pete, thanks so much. as pete is taulk about gas prices, they're a big part of everybody's economic reality. let's see how things are. "americans are by many measures in a better financial position than they have been in many years. they also believe the economy is in terrible shape." that's the take in a new piece of "new york times" senior economic correspondent neil irwin. he joins me now. your piece really stuck with me because it got to kind of the psychology of people's economic reality, which i think is something not considered enough. but to your point, if things are better for most folks than they have been in many years, people still think it's terrible, why is that? >> so, when we think about our economic lives, there's two sides of it -- income and spending. there's the income you bring in fr

host: that was alexandria ocasio-cortez of new york. caller: she said exactly the words i would have said. i voted for him to be fdr, because this country needs a large transformation. the way we take care of the middle class and the poor and the wealthy are getting away not contribute in their fair share for years and years. that tax cut that donald trump passed was horrendous. host: how do you think this legislation benefits middle-class people? caller: the first thing is a lot of people will be getting some childcare. you will be able to get some help with your elderly family members if you need it. the child tax credit we are already dealing with. a lot of this will go to help out the efficient -- the ever structure built. -- the infrastructure built. these are things people need to go about their lives. these things are very costly. host: ok. let's hear from chris in new york, independent line. caller: how are you doing this morning? mccarthy was right and wrong yesterday. wrong on the part of dragging out eight hours when they sho

this is congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez, from yesterday. [video clip] >> this is not about me. this is not about representative gosar, but this is about what we are willing to accept. not just from a leader, but i have seen other members of this party advanced argument, including a percentage of gosar himself, the illusion that this is just -- including representative gosar himself, that the illusion that this is just a joke and what we say and what we do does not matter as long as we claim a lack of meaning. this nihilism runs deep, and it conveys and betrays a certain contempt to the meaning and importance of our work here that what we do, so long as we claim it is a joke, does not matter. that what we say here does not matter. that our actions every day as elected leaders in the united states of america does not matter. that this chamber and what happens in it does not matter. and i am here to rise to say that it does. our work here matters. our example matters. there is meaning in our service, and as leaders in this country, when we inc

good morning, alexandria. >> reporter: good morning. more americans are losing faith despite what the be president considered to be a win on friday. the latest poll shows president biden's approval rating hit a new low of 38%. the house passed the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill but that relied on help from republican as democrats continue to spar with their own progressives on biden's even costlier upcoming spending bill. >> i think congressional democrats blew the timing. we should have passed these bills in early october. if we had, it would have helped terry mcauliffe. i've got to give it to the republicans, they were hungry. that's what happens when a party loses, they get hungry and win a close race. >> reporter: he mentioned terry mcauliffe, considered an early shoe-in to win back his old seat, that is until last tuesday when they elected glenn youngkin. new jersey proved to be a narrow nail biter. the races are considered the first true tests of how voters feel about biden's presidency. >> it was a rejection election. voters o

host: philip in alexandria. caller: good morning. thank you for all you have done with all of this stuff. this goes way back to mercia and everything else. my wife and i recently had our burst -- booster. i read a lot of indications on the internet where protected by 16 times more antibodies. is that a matter of antibodies or protecting against the virus itself for the percentage of being safe? thank you for what you do. guest: great question. the answer to that is yes to both. the booster does have more antibodies. the reduction of risk of acquiring the virus. the fundamental immunity with the combination of antibodies is much harder to measure. we don't fully understand those two. we do know from excellent critical -- clinical trials the vaccine itself in the booster increase antibodies but more importantly increase our chance of getting covid. your chance of getting severe covid are very low. right now in our hospitals, 99% are not vaccinated. the percent of people who are vaccinated to wind up with severe covid is very slim. host

now alexandria huff joins us from san chill -- chantilly, virginia. >> yeah, glenn's bus just arrived. he put thousands of miles on this bus in the past 1 1/2 weeks. he's confident that the voter engagement will lead to a sellation tonight. earlier today, the republican started shooting hoops of all things. that came after meeting with voters in a polling place in fairfax county where he told us enthusasm is on his side. >> when you get to travel around this amazing state and meet with -- i think we met with 25,000 and 30,000 virginiians the last ten days and seeing everybody come together. >> he says he felt increasing support coming from the base and independents as well, which would be crucial in counties in northern virginia that have turned blue. despite that, he left the big games and the big party players after of the campaign trail. whether he -- where he found his footing is clearly on dish -- the issue of education. so the push is big. a lot of people are watching this. if this pays off, we'll see parents front and center in nationwide elections to come, neil. >> neil: thank

i was 7:30 in the morning on saturday, anderson, at the farmers market in alexandria. james carville knows that well. he used to live, i think, not too far from there. and it was packed, packed. not for a terry mcauliffe rally but for a glenn youngkin rally. and that is an area, alexandria, where joe biden won by 80%. eight-zero percent just last year. if that kind of enthusiasm anecdotally -- i'm obviously conceding that and that's very important -- can translate into election day, then terry mcauliffe could have a really big problem because those are the areas where democrats are really relying on getting out their vote. >> james, you're a mcauliffe supporter. you've helped fund-raiser for him and many other democrats as well. how concerned are you and how important is tomorrow? >> i'm very concerned. it's a very important race. i really want to win it bad. if we lose, i'll be profoundly disappointed. i think john and dana have done a good job of setting the table about what's going on. i would say -- and i don't know -- but i've seen exhaustive analysis of the early

congressman paul gosar about to be punished for his graphic video depicting violence against congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez and president joe biden. the house will vote tomorrow to censure him and remove him from two committees. >>> plus the state resting their case in the trial of the three men accused of murdering ahmaud arbery, but the defense seems more focused on black pastors in the courtroom than their own case. >>> and 1,500 pieces of satellite debris hurtling through space and coming dangerously close to the international space station. we're going to have the very latest on why nasa officials say russia is to blame for this. >>> let's get right to washington now and the breaking news there. our congressional correspondent, cnn's jessica dean. thanks for joining us this evening. walk us through this resolution and what it means for paul gosar, please. >> reporter: right. so let's just lay it out for everybody. first and foremost, this is the most serious form of punishment that can be bestowed on a member of the house of representatives. now, it is symbolic, but it hasn't been done s

this is alexandria ocasio-cortez, the democratic congresswoman's response. she was on her way to the climate summit in glasgow. while i was en route a deeply creepy member who i work with shared a fantasy of him killing me and he'll face no consequences because the gop cheers him on. fact check, true. at least up to this point. >> and possibly not from twitter either because he sort of gets a pass because he's an elektd official. if i'm aoc i'm afraid. this is sort of obsessive and stalkerish behavior mixed with toxic masculinity and she's been on the other end of a lot of this kind of vile actions, and i'm sure she's nervous about it. >> one thing to remember is republicans right now are in the minority. this is still a small group of the conference, and they are really impacting how leadership deals with them. because of redifficulty ding which is already showing that a lot of districts will only become more partisan this group could grow so imagine even if mccarthy is majority leader they will continually probably pressure him to condemn others in the con

will: alexandria half is live in washington dc with more. reporter: this variant is proving to have variation from the covid-19 cases that researchers have become accustomed to pick south african doctor was the one that first reported the covid-19 variant, the new one tells us that patients have not lost their sense of taste or smell and have recovered at home while feeling tired. she's worried that older and vaccinated individuals will be hit harder and meanwhile infections are spreading reaching europe and australia. president biden travel ban to and from south africa and seven neighboring nations begins tomorrow excluding american citizens that need to return home. >> blocking travel from a given country, just give us time to assess it better, that's the reason for doing that, not any reason for panic, but we want time to fill in the blanks of what we don't know right now. reporter: while the omicron variant is officially detected in the us researchers believe the ability to enter human cells means the variant is likely already here. >> i
