i love seeing the dems control all these republican candidates. we have the craigslist ad that came out. we need somebody who's a good babysitter to be speaker of the house. suddenly everybody's a comedian on twitter. the dems are noticing that there is a vulnerability in the party now. i think it's important to get someone who will unify the party. >> not a fan of boehner, but

republican presidential candidate chris christie says iowans should expect to see ads from his superpac soon. but he said...he actually wants the end of all superpacs. christie...3450 you know there's going to be money in politics. the question is...am i bought? christie held a town hall event at the raceway cafe in newton. he told about 60 people he wants no limits on how much people can donate to political candidates. that would end the need for superpacs...which can accept unlimited donations. and he said voters will be able to tell whether someone's paid for a position a candidate takes. christie...3515 if all of a sudden you see that i got a million money check from someone in a particular industry and then two weeks later, i'm back here in iowa. and i was against what that industry.... then all of a sudden maybe we need to study that. well you can draw whatever conclusion you would like to draw from that. " christie said he would want a campaign to disclose on its website all donations within 24 hours.

vonnie: it is chaos for house republicans. they now have no clear leader and they have to raise the debt ceiling within four weeks. kevin mccarthy took himself out of the running yesterday. kevin mccarthy: if we are going to unite to be strong, we need a new face to help do that. the conservative caucus did not want him to become speaker. john boehner was planning to leave at the end of the month, but he will stay on as speaker until a successor is chosen. russian says some missiles are not reaching their targets in syria. rockets fired from russian ships in the caspian sea hit iran.

business, raise the debt ceiling as we have done repeatedly in the past for presidents whether they are republicans or democrats, get past the rhetoric, and then deal with structural issues going forward. let's rebuild and renew america. let's raise the gas tax so we can deal with our crumbling infrastructure. something that ronald reagan did mr. levin: i yield the gentleman 3 seconds. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. blumenauer: something ronald

here's what republicans have to do. we have to eliminate deductions in the tax code that many of us enjoy. $1.2 trillion per year given away in deductions. we have to bring some of that back to the treasury and put it on debt and violate pledges that all of us have signed. have you heard of the grover norquist pledge? i like grover and here's what he said. if you eliminate a deduction like second-home interested action, but if you eliminate that, under the plate you would have to take all the money to buy down tax rates. the problem is no democrat will get in the room to adjust the age of retirement or benefits. what simpson bowles requires is for republicans to eliminate deductions, take some revenue to pay down debt, and what our democratic friends have to do in return? adjust the age retirement because we are living so much longer and we have to ask people

one of the venues of republican rivals jeb bush and donald trump have been calling each other prophetic respectively. doubling down on his original comments that the world trade center towers came down on george w. bush's watch. >> i don't want jeb bush to say my brother kept us safe because september 11th was one of the worth days in the history of this country. i'm not thin skinned when something is truthful. if i did something wrong, i can handle that and if the press is bad. it's when people hit me when i didn't do anything wrong. you know, it's like then it's not a question of thin skin. i will fight back. >> and fighting back is exactly what jeb bush is doing referring to a two minute social ad media.

chairman, that there was a winner last night, that was the republicans on that stage, loser was the media. long after this debate is forgotten, people will remember how arrogant, on knocks shous, biassed, shallow, agenda drifing that this media is. i said in 2008, that the media is dead in america. i'd now argue it's now buried as of what happened last night. i'd assume you're pretty ticked off. >> i just can't tell you how -- off i am. you're exactly right. when you take a deep breath and you take a step back and you say, okay, this is clearly a victory for these candidates on the stage. because what they did was extraordinary. i thought every one of them -- i mean, ted cruz's line, we're calling that the cruz missile.

basically an arm of the republican national committee. it is a partisan vehicle as admitted by the house republican majority leader, mr. mccarthy, to drive down my poll numbers. big surprise, and that's what they have attempted to do. i am still standing. i am happy to be part of this debate. and i intend to keep talking about the issues that matter to the american people. >> the american people are sick and tired of hearing about your damn e-mails. >> thank you. me too. me too. >> you know? the middle class, anderson, let me say something about the media as well. i go around the country and talk to a whole lot of people. middle class in this country is collapsing. we have 27 million people living in poverty. we have massive wealth and income inequality. our trade policies have cost us millions of decent jobs. the american people want to know if we're going to have a democracy as a result of citizens united. let's talk about the real issues facing america. >> thank you, bernie. thank you. [ applause ] >> two happy candidates right there.

they're not just on the republican side. they're in the middle and on the democratic side as well. these are voters who tuned in last night because they want to see change, what the politicians are going to do. when you see 15 million viewers watching a debate 14 months before an election, that means something real is happening in the country. >> yes, thank goodness. brian, thank you. nia, you were there. let's just go tluf, we asked you to choose two high points from the debate last night. what were they? >> reporter: well, i think two

. >> this committee is basically an arm of the republican national committee. it is a partisan vehicle as admitted by the house republican majority leader mr. mccarthy, to drive down my poll numbers. surprise. >> my point is that tonight she was speaking to the democrats in that room, and the democrats that will be voting in the key states in the primary. that may be very good for her. however, long term, sean, when you have an fbi criminal investigation looming, blaming this on mccarthy, talking about the benghazi committee may not be enough for her. final point is that she continued to move left on keystone and defending herself on trait tonight. again, that may help her, stabilize numbers and lock up the democratic nomination but could be moving her so far left, that it makes it harder for her in a general election both on the trust issue and the e-mail and policy issues. she's moved pretty far left, sean. >> part of the exchange we didn't air, she admitted it's a legitimate investigation because of the fbi and inspector general. they talk about a bottom in

tonight we're less than 24 hours away from the third 2016 republican debate that's taking place in boulder, colorado. it couldn't come at a more interesting time. a brand-new national poll has dr. ben carson slightly ahead of donald trump on the ground with a preview of what we can expect, carl cameron. >> thanks, john. welcome to boulder. big battle tomorrow. the race got a shake-up today. for the first time in three months, donald trump is not -- not the national front-runner. "the new york times" poll shows he's now second place to ben carson who is at 26% and still rising. trump this morning took to the phones and started calling into morning shows to beat up on ben carson. said he didn't understand the polls nationally or in iowa because in his view he's still the he took shots at ben car saying he flip-flopped on issues and there's questions to be answered. he said that carson's position on abortion has evolved. in fact, trump's position on abortion has also evolved. the key to carson's success seems to be with born again christians in eye warks social convft avs and religious conser

as far as republicans are concerned, they have new information and want to look into that. martha: byron thanks. they're coming to order. let's listen in. >> couple of quick administrate tough matters before we start. madam secretary there are predetermined breaks but i want to make it absolutely clear, we can take a break for any reason or for no reason. if you or anyone will just simply alert me, then we will take a break and it can be for any reason or for no reason. to our guests, we are happy to have you here. the witness deserves to hear the questions and the members deserve to hear the answers. so proper decorum must be observed at all times. no reaction to questions or answers. no disruptions. some committees take an incremental approach to decorum. i do not. this is your one and only notice. madam secretary, the ranking member and i will give opening statements. then you will be recognized for your opening statement. then after that the members alternate from on side to the other. because you have already been sworn, we will go straight to your opening. so i will n

we should not be paralyzed by the republicans and their constant refrain big government this and that except for what they want to impose on the american people. i know we can afford it because we're going to make the wealthy pay for it. that is the way to get it done. i certainly am not campaigning to become president because my last name is clinton. i'm campaigning because i think i have the right combination of what the country needs at this point and i think i can take the fight to the republicans because we cannot afford a republican to succeed barack obama as president of the united states. >> this is not the same approach to republicans that was taken by candidate barack obama or president barack obama. so now this is an interesting thing to move forward with, right? is there anything about presidential history that tells fuss this is likely to work as a campaign tactic? is there a chance it will scare people to hear this kind of rhetoric about the fight that needs to happen and that needs to be won? is it likely to work as a governing principle? is it likely to scare people an

with my republican colleagues frank larose from eastern ohio. during the time i was the minority leader of the ohio senate, one of the first things i decided was this syrian order for us to actually identify -- was to come together and have duly sponsored bills. either superd nerdy or you might scratch your head and say, why weren't you already doing that? at the federal level, you have hyphenated bill names of a democrat and republican sponsor and often times, we heard from our part -- our congressional panel, the really big issues get done in a bipartisan manner. when i came in in 2009, at the ripe old age of 30, 31, almost, approached president bill harris, a republican, and i respectively asked him, mr. president, we need to have this in the ohio senate paired it is unbelievable we cannot come

it's ironic that don edwards grew up in a republican family in the stanford area, in santa clara valley, attended stanford university, was captain of the golf team. did very well in golf. so much so that the district i represent every year hosts what was formerly known as the crosby clam bake, now the at&t pro-am golf tournament and don edwards told me he carried his pro he got a better score than his pro tournament. the the first tournament, first clam bake at pebble beach. he soon became president of the

i get along with democrats, with republicans, i get along with everybody and, you know, it is about relationship. he does not like obama and obama doesn't like him. they have really bad chemistry. you can see it when they're sitting. deals are people. i study people. you look at those two together and it's just never going to work. it is never going to work. and he's making obama look very foolish unfortunately. >> and -- >> who should we be supporting in syria? >> well, you know, the problem i have is that we are supporting -- this has happened before. you look at gadfy and you look at all these others well, try to help people out and they end up killing our ambassadors, the people that we've helped after the overthrow takes place. you look at saddam hussein and iraq. the problem i have -- it's such a -- sort of an obvious problem after the history of the way, we're supporting the rebels. we don't even know who the rebels are. i spoke with a general the other day who's pretty well versed on this section of the world and he said, we have no idea who we're supporting. you know, we have no idea wh

is such a difference between everything you're hearing here on this stage and what we hear from the republicans. >> here here. >> who have demonized hard working immigrants who have insulted them. you know, i came to las vegas and i think in may, early may and met about w. a group of dreamers. i wish everybody in america can meet with these young people to h stories and know their incredible talent and determination. that's why i would go further than even the executive orders that president obama has signed when i'm president. >> well, that's all very interesting given the associated press reported this week that it obtained homeland security documents that show illegal immigrants are coming to america because they believe they will be able to stay in america and receive welfare. so, is hillary pushing immigration reform to help hard workers or is it part

ronald reagan is the gold standard, the thing everybody running for office on the republican side, at least, aspires to. >> thomas: yeah. >> evan: so as a character, couldn't really ask for a better character. >> thomas: also because such an odd life history, starting out in the movies, winding up in the white house. >> evan: right. >> thomas: and also i'm not the first person to regard reagan as being curiously remote. >> evan: right. >> thomas: somewhat mysterious. he has defeated some biographers. i think he had edmund morris tearing his hair out. i mean, edmund morris resorted to a little bit of fictionalization. i'm glad he didn't do a whole novel. >> evan: right. >> thomas: but in "dutch", which is a very interesting book but, to say the least, an odd one. >> evan: right. >> thomas: because he could not grasp reagan. he was not available. and i felt some of that as i started to write the book. reagan is never in this book, except for the very end in an epilogue. he's never seen from the inside out. you know, what's called a point of view character in the creative writing biz. he

the two republican front runners, ben carson and donald trump, declined to be there today. but the other 10 candidates talked a lot about tax plans, national debt, and immigration. rand paul: why do we keep spending money hand over fist that is wasted? well, the reason we do is because people in washington lack the courage to stop it. ted cruz: when you get rid of all the complicated returns, all of the deductions, all of the depreciation schedules, all of the rules and regulations, then we can abolish the irs. chris christie: this government now thinks it should be in everything, including your fantasy football league. for goodness sake, it's ridiculous. get the government out of our pockets and off our backs. let american ingenuity and work ethic determine who is the winner in this country. bobby jindal: christians are under physical assault all over the world. assault right here at home. we need someone who's not embarrased, not ashamed to stand up and fight for our values. marco rubio: if you are qualified to haul explosives on a dirt road in afghanistan, you're qualifi

governor, and both houses of the legislature had republican majorities. the republicans were at the time interested in increasing government involvement and were very reform-minded. the democrats were divided. there were pro-reform democrats, but there were also many still that represented the tammany hall interests. the second factor was an expose in the new york press about the terrible conditions in bakeshops, conditions that were not sanitary and definitely very harmful for the workers themselves. after that expose was published in september of 1894, the legislator -- legislature was besieged with petitions and pamphlets and letters, many from prominent citizens and many from members of the clergy, decrying the terrible conditions in bakeshops and urging the legislature to do something about them. on february 12, 1895, a freshman republican assembly man from brooklyn introduced legislation that was debated and passed with a very wide margin. in fact, it was 90-0. not all members being present. it went on to the senate and was passed by an equally larg

you have texas republican chairman max saying i don't agree with the strategy and this administration, he said, is trying to avoid disaster. while the president runs out the clock. does he have a point? >> well, even many defense officials i have spoken to say this is yet another in decremental step up to where we should have been years ago. that we have expanded our cooperation slightly with the iraqi forces on taking ramadi. a bit more with the kurdish. now a bit more with syrians on the ground. it took utter failure and billions of dollars wasted before we put people on the ground where they could assess who we can really trust and see them when they are closer to the front lines and see how they react to stress. and determine who we should put more of our resources into. so can they turn things around now? i think what we are seeing more is they are making sure, just like the russians are making sure assad isn't going to fall. now our input is going to make sure that at least for now some of the syrian rebel forces will stand firm. and that helps drive future associations like the

republicans are very frustrated. you know, they elect the majorities in the house and the senate and they feel they're not getting anything. and i understand it. i mean, we worry about the middle class family. i come from middle class. i mean, people feel as though the system is not working. politicians aren't telling the truth. and, you know, michael, for me, i play sort of both positions. i've worked with the establishment. but i've also been an outside-the-establishment guy. i've been a reformer all of my life and i've shaken a lot of things up and stepped on a lot of toes. at the end it's not about pontification. your aims have to be exciting but achievable. >> it has to be fascinating for you, you were the chairman of the budget committee at a time when we had a balanced budget. you paid your dues and had success as a legislator. then you see individuals enter the political arena who have never been elected to anything. i'm referencing donald trump, ben carson, carly fiorina, who rocket to the top of the polls b
