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 alexandria ocasio-cortez tweeting, and i quote, a creepy member i work with, and i quote, a creepy cartoon 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 coun

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

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,

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

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

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

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

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.

cnn correspondent pete muntean is at a gas station in alexandria, virginia. what do these prices mean for holiday travel? >> reporter: it's not going to be cheap for so many cheam, ana. aaa predict the numbers for holiday travel, especially during thanksgiving will be huge. in fact, the increase will be the biggest that is recorded since 2005. of course, the vast majority of people will drive, 48 million will hit the road. the numbers that far up from where they were in 2019 before the pandemic so this won't feel like 2020 in a lot of ways. traffic will be bad and so will the expense. the average price of a gallon of price now up $1.30 from where it was this time last year. we've reached a seven-year high, but what's so interesting here is that aaa says it will not stop people from getting out and going during the thanksgiving travel period. here's what they said. >> a lot more confidence. people are feeling better about traveling and no matter what the gas prices are, and they are quite a bit higher than last year, people are still going to take the trip. >>

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

paul gosar retweeting a supporter, the one that appeared to show him attacking alexandria ocasio-cortez. watch. >> it's sad. it is a sad day in which a member who leads a political party in the united states of america cannot bring themselves to say that issuing a depiction of murdering a member of congress is wrong. what is so hard -- hwhat is so hard about saying that this is wrong? this is not about me. this is not about representative gosar. but this is about what we are willing to accept. >> posting that svideo was wron, period. full stop. any responsible adult would realize that, and they would apologize. but, you know, i guess i shouldn't be surprised and i'm not. not really. after all, this is a man who just this afternoon as the house was debating censure, didn't apologize -- and wait for it -- compared himself to alexander hamilton. >> to address and reject the mischaracterization, accusations from many in this body that the cartoon from my office is dangerous or threatening. it was not. and i reject the false narrative categorically. i do not espouse violence towards anyone.

inflammatory tweet ws warni biden to concede and now comes this creepy animated video he puts out about alexandria ocasio-cortez. the republican party is not going to punish gosar. they're never going to stand up to donald trump. >> mia, did you ever think you would see so many republicans brush off this type of threat, a threat to kill a fellow lawmaker? >> it's really interesting because i have always believed that respect is the beginning point of any productive conversation debate and progress. when i went into washington, i did everything i could to gain the respect of my colleagues on both sides of the isle. so i just want to start off by saying yes, gosar's actions are worthy of censored. being in congress and seeing the things i have seen, neither side can claim the higher ground here. i think there is rhetoric that has been pushed out on both sides, i was there when steve scalise got shot. i feel like members of congress need to go back and read everything i should have learned. i learned in kindergarten so they can start treating each other with respect. i also hate the hypocrisy that i

but here's what congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez said shortly after that. >> when the republican leader rose to talk about how there are all of these double standards and lists a litany of all these different things, not once did he list an example of a member of congress threatening the life of another. this is not about a double standard. >> francesca, what do you think? >> what i've been hearing from democrats on and off the hill today is whether or not this would open the door for a precedent for republicans to be able to do the same thing if they take the majority next year after next year's elections. so while there is some concern about that, they view this mainly as something they just could not let go, that the conference was in lockstep with speaker pelosi on this, more so than almost anything else recently. that there's no place for violence, that something had to be done and that the things you're talking about, those other comments are different than what was being discussed with representative gosar. >> i do want to -- go ahead. >> no, i just think this whole notion

gosar censured wednesday over an animated video he tweeted showing him killing alexandria ocasio-cortez. all also missing from mccarthy's speech is the republicans in support of biden's infrastructure bill. and all in this theatrics, purposely and soon forgotten, the bill passed friday morning by a standing ovation by democrats. and now americans, regardless of party, will reap the benefits, including mccarthy's own constituents in california's 23rd district, which happens to be home to one of the highest numbers of immigrants in this country. its local economy devastated by the pandemic. mccarthy's diatribe was for an increased tribal republican base and its leader, twice-impeached trump. for more we're joined by congresswoman carolyn maloney. thank you so much for joining us on saturday night. listening to kevin mccarthy ranting and raving and not telling his republican party to stand down, to go back to the business of governing and not trying to incite violence was really devastating for so many people. take a look at what was said on gosar. >> do you plan to give margery taylor gre

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 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

only four voted to strip him of his assignments, depicting himself murdering alexandria ocasio-cortez. he neither apologized to the congresswoman. he's boasting of being called a warrior by the former president and comparing him to the murder of the charley ebdough and he retweeted a tweet with the very same clip he was censured for. so much for regrets or decency. he has none. his fellow republicans have excuses for not doing anything about them. you should see them all the same because they express the conspear torrial clime that video itself embodies. that and a sprinkling of hypocrisy on top. this is only the second time a house member has been censured. the last time was in 2010, when democrat was taken into account for ethics violations. democrats led the effort and a wide majority voted for sensor. thitime only liz cheney and kinsinger voted yet. and after a week of silence, pointing fingers else wear and neglecting the fact that it was democrats disciplining themselves on the last vote. >> when a democrat congresswoman said israel was hiypnotized, tht supporting israel is all

and alexandria ocasio-cortez yelled, i did. they voted him to deliver on the progressive policy victories. we will see if he is able to do that. >> a lot of the benefits in these bills won't kick in right away. they don't address what are some of the top concerns for voters, which is inflation. if they pass infrastructure and the economic bill, it will have transformative impact on the middle class. it will be huge for biden's legacy. will it be enough to save the democratic majority? i think a lot of democrats on capitol hill would say they need to do more than that. >> to our point, if covid is raging with next september with whatever variant and they pass build back better, it's not going to matter. the key issue for every single american is co-vvidcovid-19 whi why you see democratic governors start issuing their own covid guidance at times at odds with the biden administration. they realize they need to take matters into their own hands. >> they are the real barometer. the pollster said build back better won't matter.

should be noted he serves on that committee alongside congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez. he will be stripped of his seat on the committee on natural resources. that will leave him with no committee assignments which will leave him nothing to do. another thing to keep an eye on tomorrow alongside that vote on congressman gosar is the sentencing tomorrow of capitol rioter jacob chansley. came to be known as the qanon shaman. you may remember him as the guy running around the capitol on january 6th with a six-foot spear wearing horns and a fur hat. the justice department is asking the court to sentence him to prison for more than four years. they are asking for more than 51 months in prison for him. if the judge accepts the justice department's recommendation, that would make him -- that would give him the longest sentence of any january 6th defendant thus far but again that vote on gosar and that sentencing decision on this guy would both be happening tomorrow. watch this space. small businesses like yours make gift-giving possible. now, comcast business has an exclusive gi

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

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

so talking about this as a moment where we know that female lawmakers, including alexandria ocasio-cortez, have faced threats and continued threats, and have to have personal security. these women and people of color members have very keenly felt the sting of this. and i think this is just a moment that encapsulates all of that. >> she has her own private security. carol, in watching this, i know we link it back, speaker pelosi linked it back to january 6th, saying it's not just talk, this talk can turn into real the violence, but it goes back furthering than that. it reminds me of my days on the campaign trail in 2015 and 2016 following donald trump, where he would talk about encouraging his supporters to punch protesters. it was really when we started to see the encouragement of violence, the joking about violence. donald trump often would say he was joking. it would actually result in actual violence. when it started to become just part of the game of politics, part of what you had to sign up for in order to play a part in our political world, in the run for the white house, or now in

it's notable that congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez also sits on that committee and, of course, she was the one in that anime video that he posted, in this animated video, appears to kill her. so separating the two from one another. but again, a very big deal here on the house and it coming on the heels of no action from house minority leader kevin mccarthy who said that there shouldn't be violence, but certainly didn't take any action to punish congressman gosar after this video. he did take the video down but he never apologized, pam. so we'll see how this all plays out in the house tomorrow. but again, underscoring just how severe of a punishment this is and how big of a deal this is in the house of representatives. >> jessica dean, thanks for bringing us the latest on that. >>> in our politics lead, the fate of former white house chief of staff mark meadows is, quote, still a work in progress. that's according to the chairman of the house select january 6th committee which met today to figure out what to do after meadows failed to show up to testify. cnn's ryan nobles joins

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

and i think we heard from congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez yesterday in the house. she is the one depicted in the animated video put out by congressman gosar, the republican from arizona. she's the victim in the video. and she gave a very plaintive cry on the house floor to speaker mccarthy saying, why is it so hard to say something is wrong? gu he didn't do that. he played whataboutism. and that's following the lead of donald trump. and this is just the latest example of just how tight trump's grip is on the republican party. >> well, garrett, just button this down for a moment before i want to bring in kristin and talk about the president's huge agenda today and whether or not that matches up with what people really care about right now on the economy. but garrett, another point about kevin mccarthy. >> andrea, as i was hearing your question to jonathan, i was reminded that mccarthy was asked about trump today at that same press conference and said, in fact, that the former president called him this morning from the golf course, when reporters pressed mccarthy abo

aside from censuring like gosser of him in the cartoon killing alexandria ocasio-cortez, what needs to be done to tamp down on this aggressive engagement having in washington right now? >> well, i think, you know, look, censoring is one thing. that's a slap on the wrist. i mean, i think these members need to be removed from their committees, and i think there should be a consideration of criminal charges, depending on what the violation is. with twitter and with social media becoming more and more prevalent, members of congress use those tools sometimes effectively, but of course, as you just mentioned what congressman gosar did in a very dangerous derogatory manner, it is simply unfathomable, yasmin, that a member of congress could tweet a video like that threatening to kill someone that he essentially, and he gets a slap on the wrist. it's absolutely insane. i remember back in the day when republicans and democrats sit down together, they would have dinner. they would come up with bipartisan solutions to problems. that is still happening but we're not seeing enough of that. instead,

pete muntean is at a gas station in alexandria, virginia, with more. fuel prices are at levels we've not seen in years. what is driving this increase? >> jake, it's not really the huge demand on the horizon that's driving these prices but rather the supply. aaa says oil-producing nations are constricting the supply trying to recoup some of their pandemic losses. gas on average is about $1.30 more expensive than it was a year ago. a seven-year high and we're all about to pay for it. aa anticipates 48 million people will hit the road during the thanksgiving travel period. those numbers way higher than in 2020, pretty close to what they were back in 2019 prepandemic, and what's so interesting here is that aaa thinks these prices will not push people away from traveling. >> a lot more confidence. people are feeling better about traveling and no matter what the gas prices are, and they are quite a bit higher than last year, people are still going to take that trip. >> so the short version here, jake, the expense is back. the traffic is back. this thanksgivi

he's not apologizing to alexandria ocasio-cortez. not apologizing to president biden. and the one thing that i will say i would watch, because you saw it happen with marjorie taylor greene is after she got stripped of his committees, she made a ton of money in fund-raising. so they get this name in the news and then it's a self-perpetuating cycle of they then also get bigger platforms. >> now, professor freeman, your book is an incredible book. i had you on my podcast, why is this happening, to talk about it. it's about congress and threats of violence that sort of hung over the entire body, particularly in the run-up to the civil war. given that as this academic work you have done, what do you see -- what do you think when you see this gosar video, when you see people saying it's a joke, just a video, yada yada yada. does that scan to you? >> no. i mean, essentially, it's easy to dismiss that and say, well, it's not a real act of violence. that it's, you know, only a video. but looking back to the 1850s, what you see is threats like that don't have to be violent to ha

and in particular, with somebody like alexandria ocasio-cortez, she is obviously beloved by progressives. but already, vilified and has met -- has -- has had, historically, a lot of threats against her. so, the fact that this wasn't condemned in a very aggressive way is -- is quite telling. for what -- for the fact that he didn't say it as much as what he did say. >> it's also interesting that he only said it because of questioning as -- as you said by -- by, you know, by -- by us. and that -- that he remained silent, not even saying last week that he had called him to take it down. you spoke with former-new jersey governor chris christie for your special report "being chris christie" which comes on at 10:00 tonight. he clearly thinks the republican party needs to move past the former president. >> that's right, and we talked about this kind of behavior from and among republicans, including the leaders here in washington, vis-a-vis donald trump. listen to a clip about that. >> a lot of your fellow republicans, particularly in washington -- they denounced the insurrection after january 6t

does he need to act on his fantasy for alexandria ocasio-cortez? i am concerned for she and other members and this is absolutely unacceptable. i do not understand it. >> so why does kevin mccarthy see his hold on power dependent on allowing paul gosar to do these things? >> this is where we have to turn the mirror back on american society, because there's some people in america who find this appealing, right. i think that's the deeper question. that's the kind of thing that i discuss in my research in the book, because it is not just paul gosar. it is that people like paul gosar in the republican party. he has a base. so i think we need to acknowledge not just that this person has been able to seek and obtain power, but actually that the backlash from his own base isn't there. so what does that say about us, right? i say "us" in the sense of a subset of the u.s. population, not all of it. i think it is important to understand there are dynamics going on in the united states that are rewarding these kinds of behaviors. so if leaders aren't willing t
