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

republicans tonight are scrambling for votes on the plan. my first guest says he will not be voting for this seriously flawed budget deal. joining us tonight is congressman john fleming, a member of the freedom caucus. he serves on the house armed services and natural resources committees. good to have you with us. this is quite a bit of a circus act. boehn boehner, the president and the soon to be speaker apparently coming up with this in hurried form. you can't support it. >> not at all, lou. and in fact, most republicans in the house will not be supporting this. this is what americans hate most about washington. a huge $1.5 trillion spending bill cooked up behind closed doors, dropped on members of the house in less than 48 hours before we have to vote for it. it has cuts in later years and it has spending in early years, those cuts will, of course, never come to pass. and there is no real entitlement reform, despite the advertising. >> you know, the suggestion, of entitlement reform, then we look to xm bank reauthorization you all have j

is for the republican party of iowa's growth and fairgrounds in des moines. among those in the top-tier of recent polling who did appear, texas senator ted cruz, florida senator marco rubio, former florida governor jeb bush and former h-p ceo carly fiorina. the republicans are coming off last wednesday's third presidential debate in colorado. debates are coming up - november 10th, in milwaukee, december 15th in las vegas before the candidates return to des moines for a january 2016 debate -- the exact date has yet to be released... with all the concern over isis and global terrorism.. now hundreds are dead after a russian plane crashes, with isis claiming responsibility. isis claims it brought down a isis claims it brought down a russian jet over egypt, killing everyone on board. 224 passengers and crew were on the metrojet plane when it crashed in the sinai peninsula this morning. it's not clear what brought down the jet. but egyptian officials say the pilot reported technical difficulties and requested an emergency landing. this morning, u-s secretary of st

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

we caught up with the republican presidential candidate during her stop in sioux city this morning. dozens of voters packed into the conference room at stoney creek hotel to hear from the former c-e-o. in a one-on-one interview with fiorina.... she talked about wednesday's debate....and said she agrees with the republican national committee's choice to pull out of the next n-b-c debate. " they were asking questions designed to sort of make one candidate fight against another as opposed to questions that would give candidates the opportunity to talk about what they stood for. when an audience boos moderators it's pretty clear that there is a bias that people geniunely feel, " said carly fiorina (r) presidential canidate. deborah: she also spoke about her plans to strengthen the economy...and cut spending...using a zero-based budgeting model. the former hewlett packard c-e-o says grassroots campaigns in northwest iowa help her stay connected to issues important to voters.

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

we have mentioned greg walden a couple of times, republican from new york, chairman for the subcommittee on communications and technology. as the top democrat on that committee, how closely do you work with him? what is your relationship like? rep. eshoo: i think we have a good relationship. it becomes tense at times when we don't agree with each other. but we have a mutual regard for one another, we like each other. a relationship is never going to be a good one unless you work at it. take a person for granted or assume what they are thinking. the more you chat, the better you know an individual in life, things. to produce i think we have a wonderful relationship. i have a lot of respect for g and i like him. we disagree, but we agree. it's a healthy relationship. we have been able to be productive. if you look at the work product of the subcommittee, which i always want to get more done, but i think that speaks for itself. peter: before we go on to another issue, i want to bring back something you also mentioned, unlicensed bandwidth. do you think of the spectrum auction scheduled for

w ten republican candidates were here for the g-o-p's first "growth and opportunity party" event. at the iowa state fairgrounds... "iowans are discerning voters. they're informed voters. they're nice." iowans are also trying to make up their minds about the candidates running for president. when republican campaigns shyed away from the straw poll, the state party came up with a brand new event.

it seems that the republican unproven. was republicsan idea that , ever since the time of the ancient republics in rome and greece, that they were inherently fragile and weak, that they would always descend into anarchy or despotism. the democracies in particular could not fight wars. they could not sustain the strain of war. , anow have a theory democratic war theory, that argues the democracies don't make war with each other. it's popular in some circles these days. in the 19 century, the idea was that democracies could not fight wars, they were incapable of it. when america descended into war and lincoln suspended habeas corpus, there was talk in england about to the steel being raised. there was despotism as well as that the great republic was descending into. bellaton, one of the french republicans who plays a minor role in the story says is not onlyca america, it is the model school of liberty. if against all possibility, america had perished, with it would fall a great experiment." that idea of democracy being an ex

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

i think this will actually mark the changing in the guard within the republican party. so possibly for the establishment insider, think about this. six of the ten republicans in the senate voted for this budget, and it includes the establishment like mitch mcconnell, john mccain. the 18 "yes" votes have an average age of 65 for the rest of the country that's usually the mandatory retirement age. on the other hand the top ten polling republicans for the white house have an allergic age of 53 -- by the way, the youngest two are 44 years old, and they may start moving up in the polls. so maybe this changing of a guard is something that's needed. i don't know that you necessarily believe it, michael, but i did find it interesting that at least all dudes who like to do business as usual still seem to have a tenure when it comes to the public. >> well, they reflect the reality. charles: i think they reflect the political reality when they came in, the chamber of washington d.c., but i don't know if they reflect the new political reality that has a bernie sanders drawing 20,00

adding to that is the endorsement of paul singer, one of the wealthiest and most influential republican donors in the country. his endorsement and his vast network of donors could potentially bring millions of dollars more to rubio's campaign. and if that weren't enough, on friday a major pro-rubio super pac, conservative solutions, announced it's also ramping up its efforts and plans to spend some of its millions of dollars on a new tv ad for the florida senator. gregg? >> and singer is so influential, among other big donors. this is a guy who has the power to pick up the telephone. magically, overnight you're talking about tens of millions of dollars from others who may contribute. what are these other gop candidates saying about this sort of sudden rise of marco rubio? >> anytime donald trump starts criticizing you you know you're doing well. yesterday that's what donald trump was doing, going after rubio for singer's endorsement. but today in virginia trump was laying out his plan to help veterans fix the va, he went after all the other candidates for using super pacs which he recen

senators, senator benjamin cardin, who's a democrat from maryland, and senator john mccain, who's a republican from arizona. and i told them the story that i've just told with you here now. and-- and i said, "can we take away their visas and freeze their assets and make a law"? and they said yes. and so-- they came up-- and this was a bi-- this was-- one of the few things in-- in a polarized washington that-- that the democrats and the republicans could agree on. and they came up with something called the magnitsky act, named after sergei magnitsky, my lawyer who was killed. they came up with it in-- in october of 2010. and-- and-- and they introduced it to congress. and it was very interesting. because right afterwards their phone lines lit up. they were getting telephone calls from many, many russian-- victims of other crimes. and those people-- said, you know, the-- the-- "can you sanction the person that killed my father"? you know, "can you sanction the person that killed my husband, my sister, my brother"? they-- and they realized that they were on to something much bigger than just serg

it didn't matter if you were a republican. it didn't matter if you were his best friend. he said: 'this is where we're going, this is how we're going to reform state government...' every politician comes in talking about making change, and generally there's not much change. but governor bush made a lot of changes. he got the nickname veto corleone. if he saw something in the budget that he thought violated his conservative principles, you could guarantee it was gonna get whacked. he vetoed a bunch of my stuff and i was the senate president. the message to washington, d.c., is 'get ready...' because there will be change. nright to rise usa is responsible do you think when you are president you'll be paid as much as if you were a man-male... this is one of the jobs where they have to pay you the same. but there are so many examples where that doesn't happen. i'm going to do everything i can to make sure every woman in every job gets paid the same... ...as the men who are doing that job. r i'm hillary clinton p and i approve this message. okay, so everyone is saying, "hurry!

moving forward, republicans hope that president obama will work with congress on policies like these that control bipartisan support. that is the best way to help save alaska. and it is the best way to protect our future, our economy, our security, and our environment. thank you so much for listening. >> before the honorable supreme court of the united states. this week on c-span's landmark cases. we will discuss the historic supreme court case of shank versus the united states. in 1917, united states entered world war i, patriotism was high, and some forms of criticism of the government or a federal offense. charles schenk who was general secretary of the philadelphia socialist hearty handed out leaflets against the draft. >> this is the flyer that was produced by schenk in 1917. 2000 copies of this were produced, and the point was to encourage men who were arriving for the draft not to register. it is particularly fiery, it equates slavery and calls in every citizen and united states to raise -- resist the prescription law. >> he was arrested, tried, and found guilty under the espi

he clearly doesn't have the ability to campaign like some of the other republicans have. he has a lot of money. >> but he also has a resume. >> he has a good governor of a large state. >> tremendous experience. >> you know what matters a lot right now? the less the resume and how you present your resume. >> i know. >> excited about -- >> look at the picture of him on-screen right now. his eyes are skewed, his shoulders are slumpy. >> as one person on a campaign that's imploded and came back from the dead, he needs to clean house with his staff. >> it's their fault? it's not their fault. >> can i finish? >> -- quick today, like your chief operating officer -- >> eric, she actually had some inside information we were talking about before the show i asked her to bring up. >> there are people in politics who only care about being in a book on "game change" and hanging out with people and will sell out their candidates. yes, jeb bush's messaging is completely off, he's a bad candidate and a bad campaigner, but i believe he has bad people around him. and i think if he cleaned h

these are some of the headlines after the republican debate this week. the financial times, jeb bush blows chance to get back in the game. also from buzz feed, jeb bush continues death spiral at gop debate. from slate magazine, jeb died on that stage. how do you turn perception around, even if perception isn't reality yet? >> there's really no way. he has to hope the people in front of him implode, and that's a very tough expectation. i mean, trump and carson, people have been saying for a long time, myself included, these guys might not make it, but now you have people like marco rubio who are legit candidtes who are also in front of him and who people seem to perceive to be stronger, so if you're jeb bush, what you have to do is go on the offensive, you have to stop managing the public's expectations about what you're going to do or not do at the debates and perform on debates, go aggressively against the front runners, clearly establish and articulate an agenda and can't rely on the fact you have the biggest machine. at some point the machine has to f

terms of coalition sinz is a government that's formed akp and the other main opposition party which is republican people's party, a leftist social democratic movement. chp is in the middle on the kurdish issue which it wants the peace process to restart and submit more rights of the kurds as part of the party's larger pivot to become a social democratic movement. i think that will be a peace cabinet as opposed to the war cabinet, which is the other alternative, more likely a l alternative if there was a coalition government. >> how big an effect is the war in syria having on the kind ofling lappedscape? how much e does it have on these e lektsz? >> i think turkey's policy will continue top combat. the scald islamic state in syria because it has been targeted but what will probably change is the policy on the kurds in syria working with the united states to combat the so-called islaminal state. this is a government that is akp and the mhp. this will probably be crazy about cooperation with the syrian kurds because we will have a more confrontational attitude toward the kurd inner community in turk

the republican candidates are vying for the man like ronald reagan. would not go off the quips with flags flying, he was not as ideologically rigid as people might think. he wants signed a bill, and one of his aides asked him, why did you sign that will? it is not keeping with your principles that all. well, i got 80% of what i wanted and i just declared victory. eisenhower's of approach to things. he was very good at compromising. gerald ford said that compromise is the oil that makes government go. ford also understood how good an important it was to work with members of the opposite aisle. one of ford's best friends was .ip o'neill, a golfing partner publicly, tip o'neill would criticize ford savagely, but after 5:00 ford and tip o'neill got together and golfed and drank together and had a very good relationship, as did eisenhower with members of both parties. don't think it's particularly well-known, but john kennedy, despite his speeches on the moon, basically had the same opinion as i did. he really did not care that much about going to the moon

and a republican strategist, the president and c.e.o. of an agency, a public relations and marketing firm. we are talking about liberals and foreign policy. do liberals have a foreign policy, specifically bernie sanders. seems he wants is to be a backburner issue, is it okay for a commander in chief? >> it's not okay. if liberals have a defined foreign policies, it's a confusing question. you have to talk about what does liberal mean. if you are in england, that's disarm a. ment -- disarm ement, diplomacy. it's like republican foreign policy. >> you can look at hillary clinton and say she's more hawkish than republicans. >> democrats say they are for diplomacy and disarmament, but pushing forward on the same kind of interventionist foreign policy in the name of human rights, creating a precedent for the global engage: to democrats have a different foreign policy? >> not different enough. >> i like hint's position. i believe the government, the first thing the government must do is to protect our borders and citizens. if everything else w

i've given up hope that my colleagues on the republican side outside of maybe rand paul are doing much when it comes to outreach because they haven't shown that effort and not sure they'll show it in the upcoming months. >> do you think that it is short-sided, really short-sided of many of us? you know, i've said it, to say how do you secure the black vote or the african-american vote? i mean, isn't that like saying how do you secure the white vote? there are core issues for every group. but it is so diverse what different people want, right? >> it can't be based on the premise that african-americans are monolythic because we're not. we all don't think alike. we there are systemic ill that is affect the african-american community for example when our colleges and universities get a cold, historically black universities catch the flu. whenever we have go through a economic depression, those communities that are hurt worse are communities of color. then you have the systems put in place such as mass incarceration and everything else which hillary clinton and bernie sanders and even joe b

i think both sides, and i'm not talking republicans and democrats, i'm talking to houses, we need to really come together and try to work this out. can you speak to the importance of having a single report like this? hon. rosenworcel: sure. senator, i think the greatest value in that legislation is that we have some reports that we have to produce annually that are a waste of commission resources. senator: is this one of them? all of these reports, is that a raised? hon. rosenworcel: all are not. there are also ways in which longitudinal data -- senator: some of us do read them. hon. rosenworcel: i do. senator: having seen the reports, i think it be very advantageous for all of us -- hon. rosenworcel: i think it was a report every other year. the only point that i would make is that the internet age was really fast. want to make sure that our decisions are informed by data and doing this is more frequency or having an intermediate effort would give us the kind of data that would support better decision-making. so, that would be the only pause that i would have. i don't think the legi

base and the entire republican party. supply siders, and pop lewis. that's why they have six flat taxes. john: mike huckabee, he called these plans, the tax arrangements that were mentioned here and you've tried to discuss. these plans are "putting lipstick on a pig." and told cnbc he would promote replacing income tax and the end of the i.r.s. with a higher sales tax. what do you think of that? tom: honestly, i'm happy for huckabee because this is the guy -- i don't get it. he has very little credibility. and i would prefer that we had a system where the tax code is massive live -- massively simplified and more efficient. you can have lower rates and a bit for revenue. you cannot just have a sales tax. that would kill poor people in america. pat: you could put a 20% tariff on all imports and eliminate the corporate tax. why didn't somebody ask trump, you seem to be a protection analyst. would you do that? ask the others what they think. eleanor: i don't like to criticize my colleagues and journalists. pat: go ahead. john

it is troubling to the republican party. there is dis-ease over who is the established candidate here. both marco rubio and jeb bush, in my view, are highly flawed. and couldn't light the tail of a firefly. senator lindsey graham, who is very conservative, said marco rubio is too far to the right on abortion, on pro life. not supporting abortion in the case of rape and incest. he thinks that will preclude him from winning an election. i think singer's endorsement in this case reflects some dis-ease within the republican party over who will be the torch bearer. >> tammy, also shows some change within the party. when you talk about being far right, singer himself is very pro game marriage. that is not exactly far right. >> his donations focused on individuals to broad especially the party base, and appeal of it. so that is important. also, mr. singer endorsed mitt romney and was behind the romney case. mitt romney vetted marco rubio in '12. something happened there to where marco rubio didn't make the cut. so it will be a very

jeb bush, the republican presidential nomination. now he's fighting the perception that his campaign is in jeopardy saying it's not on life support. but are his supporters and major donors worried?

i have to tell you, i wasn't sure if i was a democrat or republican. i think he said would you rather belong to the party that lyndon johnson heads? that is how i aligned myself with the democrats. i had voted for kennedy in 1960. in georgia, you could vote at 18. no other state in the union you could vote at 18. i cast my vote for john f. kennedy. democrats, republicans, it wasn't a begin with me then. >> you didn't have any models of politicians, people who had selected -- served selected office? >> adam mclane powell, two or three other block numbers of congress. most of them were machine people. dawson from chicago, nick from thought of you. these are machine politicians. i won't say they were useless, because that is not true. they were preachers of machines. they went independent actors or thinkers. powell was, but he had this flamboyance. it was offputting for us in the south. as he got older, he was grasping for a place in the movement that had passed him by. he became a less and less appealing figure. i had these remote models of people who ra

the republican national committee. they're not happy with formats, the candidates, i'm talking. and they have questions about those questions that were asked after last wednesday's debate. here's how ted cruz summed it up. >> you know, i did think it was fitting that the debate occurred the week of halloween. because the moderators were doing everything they could to ask every candidate, all right, explain to me, are you more of a ghoul or a goblin? >> all right. that meeting of the campaign advisers for tomorrow scheduled to begin in the evening, 6:00 p.m. and the rnc, by the way, has not been invited. >>> all right. straight ahead, severe weather hitting the south. heavy rain, more than 20 inches, in fact, has fallen in parts of texas. a live report on the dangerous storm system next. oh no...

[applause] >> so, i told these political pros, i hate to say it, but the last number of republican elections, the person who won iowa did not get the nomination. i want to take away the muster. let me win iowa and then i am going to win -- i am telling you. we will win new hampshire. and we will win south carolina, great poll just came out on north carolina just a little bit ago. a ppp poll that was great. some of you saw it. but we will win. one of the pundants because you smart and dumb ones but one of the smart ones said if trump wins iowa it is interesting because it will go right through because everywhere else is great. will you please do me favor and work with my people and go out on february 1st and vote and give us a victory. [applause] >> if i win iowa we are going to run the whole table and we will make such great deals and make a great military and take care of the health care without the crazy obamacare that is a nightmare. i want to win iowa and i think we will. it is time for that person to win iowa and have a total victory. i love you, all. we are having fun. when i heard the

and republicans seeking donations. do you think this is evidence of the aftermath of the debate and how big of a blow is it to the bush campaign? >> absolutely, it's evidence of the aftermath. according to reports, paul singer was on the fence prior to the debate. thinking of maybe bush, maybe rubio. he had a long, hour-long discussion with two of bush's top advisers, going over strategy. but this debate showed him that bush is flailing. he decided after that to support rubio. it's important to note paul singer alone is not the only billionaire who's going to now be considering rubio. paul singer basically operates with a group of republican billionaires. he's a very influential voice in the party. this is probably the first shoe to drop. >> so it could certainly spiral out is what you're saying. >> absolutely. >> can you give us any indication of what's going on perhaps behind the scenes with the bush campaign? yes, you said the debate performance wasn't strong but he still has a huge treasure chest. is that any indic

straight ahead, a possible mutiny in the republican party. right now, presidential candidates are speaking at a party-sponsored event in iowa. but they're also plotting to take control of the debates from the republican national committee. we'll go live to iowa, next. ♪ it's the final countdown! ♪ ♪ the final countdown! if you're the band europe, you love a final countdown. it's what you do. if you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance, you switch to geico. it's what you do. can turn dinner time, into bonding time.d meal that's why she roasts tender white meat chicken to perfection and mixes freshly-made pasta in an alfredo sauce made-from-scratch with parmesan, romano and real cream. ♪ because marie callender knows that the most comforting thing about comfort food, is who you're sharing it with. marie callender's. it's time to savor. when i was sidelined with blood clots in my lung,h. it was serious. fortunately, my doctor had a game plan. treatment with xarelto®. hey guys! hey, finally, somebody i can look up to...

that's what the republicans have been sailing on. that's what broke apart the republican party in the house. was this failure to understand that the tactics for them are much different than the strategy. >> can he get enough people behind him, particularly there's a lot of people on the right out there who have a vested -- not so much in congress but outside -- who have a vested interest in attacking republicans because it helps them with their ratings or their website. can ryan unite the republican party enough here the next 16 months? >> he has been very smart about how he's done this so far. remember, he set back, he waited back for them to basically ask him, beg him, to come and do this, because everything was such a mess and he gave it some thought and he did. he has gone into that speech that he was very much talking about how there's almost a duty for the house to be -- to work again and for people to unite behind him. so he's exerting a lot of pressure on these republicans who have caused so much trouble and have not seemed t

or republican-leaning registered voters. combined, that is more than half of the vote preference. and betsy, the dominance continues for ben carson as well as donald trump, and the two saying, hey, the numbers show it. we are not going to be participating in the last cattle call. >> yes, and what is interesting to me about the new numbers is that the top three candidates are no longer 100% outsiders. after the last debate, carly fiorina rocketed, and now she is falling down the less than 4% of the vote. so even though they like the outsiders, they like these two outsiders with a little love for ted cruz who is little c controversial among the washington outsiders, and so it is curious to see how it pans out. >> one poll, and josh, things could change, but as joe biden is deciding, josh, that he is not going to be running, we saw the numbers go up for hillary clinton, and that consolidation and united because you have eliminated the i don't know. so would you say that based on the numbers, josh, that we are seeing a divided r

[laughter] i do think the republicans have been helpful. [laughter] the customer showing the unease that they have with each other is like you are going past two homes and you think where should i stop. one place they are screaming at each other and fighting and taking each other down. the other side has some level of harmony. we are a because democratic party and i think that people would gravitate to a place where we have a respect for what we are here to do. mr. sesno: do you have a strategy? ms. pelosi: we have a great chairman. we have the 50th anniversary of the voting rights act. the most important thing we need to do it to make sure people see what martin luther king taught us. the ballot, the ballot, the ballot. the legislation, legislation, legislation. the connection between what happens and elections and what laws can be passed that affect people. leader is taking the lead on this. between the political piece of it, the inspirational piece of it, and the quality of candidates that are coming forward are superb. mr. sesno: when d

because when republicans eject people, that's all over the news. this is a group that is very hostile and very divisive. and hillary clinton, just in her first debate performance, talked about, she wanted to bring everyone together. and aligning with groups like black lives matter is going to do just the opposite. >> all right. >> i have to just say something. >> go ahead. >> to say this group is targeting police officers, it's false on its face and asinine and just not true. >> so the video that's out there doesn't exist? >> i don't think there's any documentation calling for the death of police officers, katrina? >> there's not. that's a full-faced lie. >> they're out there all the time calling for violence against the police officers. all the time. >> all they're simply saying is they want police officers to stop killing young unarmed black people. and katrina, if you have a problem with that, so be it. >> it's not just black people, though. police brutality is not reserved for just black people. i hate to break that to you. >> we know, because

reagan -- nixon, sorry, not reagan, nixon -- you know, make her a republican? would she, if she married someone else, be a democrat? or did she make that decision on her own? thank you. susan: well, that's interesting. abigail, before you go, if you've watched every program -- first of all, how old are you? caller: i'm 12. susan: you're 12? and do you have a favorite first lady since you've watched them all? favorite? caller: i don't know. maybe lou hoover. susan: lou hoover. ah. well, thanks very much for calling in, and we hope you make it with us all the way to the end. it's great to have you in the audience. mr. naftali: we were talking about lou hoover before... yes, i know. very discerning 12-year-old. susan: yes. so the answer to the question, would she have been a republican if she married someone else? was that her -- was she political? mr. naftali: well, i have to say that was a very good question. yeah, it was. ms. brennan: and she was an independent before, in terms of where her political standings were before they got married. would she has been so

the person on her programle that said this "hard worker" was republican. she was outraged and stopped him. if you watch her show which you probably don't, not many people do, she says hard worker many times on her program. in fact, she had on a clip not long ago of hillary clinton talking about hard workers. she had no problem with it. she's fine saying it. she's fine with hillary clinton. she's not okay with republicans saying it. >> it can't always be left versus right. >> she made it left/right. how is hard work a dirty word. >> i agree. i don't think it's because we were talking about paul ryan. >> how come she only has a problem with the term hard worker when a republican says it about a white male conservative. when hillary clinton says it, it's okay. >> it's your view of the world. a woman who keeps a picture of slaves picking cotton on her wall has a distinctive view of the world through a racial lens. >> she filters it through that lens, but wayne, for god's sake. hard work? america was built on hard work. >> of course. not only that, eric. the id

sometimes you can't hit the fast ball or the republicans can't do hearings. hillary is begging them to impeach the irs guy because they will look bad again. >> if you don't do something now. >> i hate to say impeach anybody. i e-mails and evidence were destroyed giving agency to people in the media saying there was no there there. the e-mails were destroyed. if any law enforcement official or come did it they would lose their job. >> to impeach or not? what do you say, john? >> sure, impeach him. it's just a distraction. the big scandal is that we cower before the irs on an annual basis, have to prove our income to them. focusing on this gets away from the unelected bureaucracy. >> wouldn't it be nice? we talk about government getting away with stuff. to stop one individual at least from getting away with stuff? >> i think so, without question. again, the real problem is we are scared of the irs and we have to prove our income to unelected bureaucrats annually. it pulls us away from the real issue. >> the real issue might be getting rid of the irs. not time f

that is a possible core of republican support. also, there are people who thought, among all these northerners he is the one who would treat us best. one expression of that is when he was murdered the last southern army had surrendered but there is still an army under general johnston and the carolinas and they're going to surrender to sherman. sherman gets killed and gestures him to a room where the two can be together to tell him this news. johnston's reaction was a calamity to the south. there are southerners who applauded that he was killed. others who thought it was terrible. he was our best hope. so i think it is not unreasonable to think that lincoln could have done the best possible job trying to deal with a supremely difficult situation. we certainly went to one of the worst presidents we ever had, andrew johnson. he was temperamental man, he took flight, he was boiling with resentment, he was a unionist democrat and the only southern senator not to succeed in 1861. he was a self-made man probably poor that lincoln actual

most republicans and i'm a conservative republican, thought that was put together. those panelists were asking questions on behalf of hillary clinton to embarrass and destroy republican candidates. that did not happen at our debate. i done think it will happen in future debates. >> hugh hewitt, always good to see you. >>> speaking of exciting presidential races, it has been 15 years since the most dramatic presidential election in modern history. the recount of 2000. you can relive all the drama. bush versus gore. the endless election. that airs monday night at 9:00 p.m. eastern and we'll be right back. does your mouth often feel dry? multiple medications, a dry mouth can be a side effect of many medications. but it can also lead to tooth decay and bad breath. that's why there's biotene, available as an oral rinse, toothpaste, spray or gel. biotene can provide soothing relief and it helps keep your mouth healthy too. remember, while your medication is doing you good, a dry mouth isn't. biotene, for people who suffer from a dry mouth.

he beat conservative republican barry goldwater with the backing of business. most of your nation's business was behind that texan right there. but this was about to change. and this changes when we look at the challenge to business paid and the stocks with the usw boycott. -- and this starts with the usw boycott. by 1968, it is all california grapes. and it is not just grapes. it is also the stores that sold them as a secondary boycotts. big leverage right behind the movement. and it goes international. canada, western europe, the philippines, mexico. and this is what really gives the power behind this, the lost cause of coalition. -- la causa coalition. century, ity, 20th 1950's politics. you are not finding this anywhere. the,e to call this housewives, and hardhats. fancy alliteration. religious groups across all faiths. white middleur upper-class housewives. who is not buying grapes? the latter. 1956, the much to sacramento. this is the first time you see this dynamic coalition sprawled across the capital. and we see this nationwide. on no other front in th

leaving that aside, do you think that the republicans did not comport themselves well by focusing more on how much they're going to cut your taxes and how they're not going to deal with the debt? >> dwight eisenhower used to say every year, we used to have a balanced budget, i am too elderly to remember that. i'm elderly enough to remember that. none of the rest of you are. we had a great economy under dwightiz dwight eisenhower. >> we had a 90% tax rate, didn't we? >> at the top which would only apply to you, neil. we want a balanced budget at least in sight. >> we had a great economy under john kennedy, by the way, who cut taxes. >> after his death. >> related to simplifying the tax road. we have an irs that's dangerous. it's been wielded as a political weapon. if you simplify the tax code and reduce it from the tens of thousands of pages that it is, you basically take the power away from the irs. >> i understand but is it unrealistic for carly fiorina to say to reduce it to three pages. is that realistic? >> i mean, every -- they all make that promise. the thing we haven't hit on is

what the network, candidates and republican national committee are doing to resolve the issues. looks like some folks have had it with their airline credit card miles. sometimes those seats cost a ridiculous number of miles... or there's a fee to use them. i know. it's so frustrating. they'd be a lot happier with the capital one venture card. and you would, too! why? it's so easy with venture. you earn unlimited double miles on every purchase, every day. just book any flight you want then use your miles to cover the cost. now, that's more like it. what's in your wallet?
