Judiciary committee here tonight fresh off the hope hicks testimony and the first hearing on reparations in 30 years. Lets get word from inside the rooms where things happen. What do you say . Lets get after it. So joe biden has gone from offense to defense. Hes now taking on the rivals who were going after him for recalling the quote civility of two former segregationist senators. Tonight heres what biden had to say to them. Are you going to apologize . Apologize for what . Cory bookers called for it. Corey should apologize. He knows better. Theres not a racist bone in my body. Ive been involved in civil rights my whole career. Senator sanders said he agreed with cory booker that biden should apologize. Well get to that. But my big question for the senator is about raw politics of persuasion and winning. Senator Bernie Sanders, welcome back to prime time. My pleasure. You saw the rally last night. You see the big crowd, the enthusiasm, you heard the message, its more of the same. Us versus them. Be ware of people like Bernie Sanders. How can you beat President Trump . Well, i think that trump is very vulnerable but i think the best way that we beat him is run a campaign of energy and enthusiasm which brings millions of young people into the political process, brings working people who have given up on politics into the political process and, by the way, reaches out to some of trumps supporters who have learned that he is a pathological liar and what he told them in 2016 that he was going to stand with the working class was just not true. So i think we need to confront trump with a progressive alternative that understands, chris, that the working class of this country for the last 45 years has been decimated. In the last 30 years alone weve seen the top 1 , seen their wealth go up by 21 trillion while the wealth of the bottom half declined and real wages today are no better despite all of the technology and productivity than they were 45 years ago. The working class understands that. We have got to give them and the young people who standard of living is going to be lower than their parents a reason to vote, a reason to understand why politics is so important. How do you get them back . Lets talk about the how here a little bit, senator. The push from the Trump Campaign would be, yeah, thats why im the one that reached out to him. Im the one who connected with those people who you on the left forget. Thats why they voted for me in numbers that Hillary Clinton could have only dreamed of in that general election. You cant have them back. Theyre mine. Well, i think the way to bring them back is to give them an agenda that speaks to their needs. Right now you have millions of people in this country working for starvation wages, wages of 9, 10, 11 bucks an hour. I believe and most americans believe that if you work 40 hours a week, you should not be living in poverty. Raise the minimum wage to 15 bucks an hour and get those people into the political process. Chris, we are the only major country on earth that doesnt guarantee health care to all people. And the American People understand theyre being ripped off big time by the Drug Companies. What our candidates have got to do and what i will do is tell the Drug Companies, guess what, were not going to subsidize you anymore. You are going to lower your priz prices by 50 so the American People can afford the medicine they need. Were going to move to a medicare for all. Youre going to give people an agenda that they can latch onto, that they can feel good about and participate in the election. I get the plan. But as we all know, and i know you dont like this part of the process, but theres got to be a connection with the messenger as well and its got to be about persuasion and this president has gotten pretty far on a set of ideas that were exactly novel other than building a wall. Lets go to a moment that will separate a winner from a loser, youre ongoing the stage with the president , hes hitting you with socialist every time you give any kind of answer. Hes taking personal shots at you. Hes bringing up your family. Calling you crazy bernie, what does Bernie Sanders say on the stage . You cant ignore it. The point to be made to trump is we have a society right now in many respects which is socialistic, in the sense that the federal government spends a lot of money helping certain kinds of people. The problem is, we get billions of dollars in subsidies to the pharmaceutical industry, to the fossil fuel industry, in fact trump himself in his Real Estate Company received massive amounts of subsidies and tax breaks. So what we say in response to the charge of socialism is you got socialism right now. Martin luther king jr. Said we have socialism for the rituch a individualism for the poor. So what i believe is a socialism that works for the working families of this country and trump believes in a socialism for wall street, the Drug Companies and big money interests. At the end of the day, you know, your concern has to be, you want the best ideas to win. But we know thats not always how it happened. One of the most indicative metrics of who wins president ial elections is who do you want to have a beer with contest s. That something that you think you would be able to focus on personally . If hes going to talk about me, im going to have to go toe to toe and im going to have to win the messenger contest and not just the message. The answer to that is yes, but i think something else, chris. And that we have got to be honest with the American People in a way that most politicians and the media is not honest. So how does it happen that after 45 years, after all of the speeches and the legislation and the party platforms, how does it happen that the average worker today is no better off than he or she was off 30 years ago. And then we got to look at who really controls the economy and the political life of this country. This is something we dont do very often. I am prepared to do that and to tell the American People that Bernie Sanders alone as president cannot do all of the things that has to be done. That together, and the message of our campaign, is us not me. We need millions of people to stand up, to tell wall street were going to end their greed and break up the large banks, were going to take on the Drug Companies, the military, industrial complex. No president alone can do that. What makes my campaign different, i believe, than any other campaign is that i understand that at the end of the day if were going to improve life for the working people, for the children, for the elderly, we need a political revolution. I know that not everybody agrees with me and i get people get a little bit nervous about that. If you are serious about bringing change, why are we the only major country not to guarantee health care to all. It is the power of the Insurance Companies and the Drug Companies and if were not prepared to take them on, then all of the speeches and all of the plans dont mean anything. I am prepared to take them on. Youre going to have to ask for approval twice. If you make it to the general, thats what were talking about right now. Before you got to make it out of the primary. Elizabeth warren in current polling is catching up to you. You got her, biden and you are now at the top of the polls. Lets talk about each of them. What do you think the reason is that Elizabeth Warren is watching up to you in polls . Do you believe that people see her as the more electable version of Bernie Sanders . I think we are running against a lot of problems. I think that there are a certain number of people who would like to see a woman elected and i understand that. There are people who would like to see somebody who is younger and i understand that also. There are a lot of factors out there. Elizabeth is a friend of mine. I think shes running a good campaign. But at the end of the day, chris, whether its biden or warren, Elizabeth Warren or anybody else, what i believe is that in fact i am the strongest candidate to defeat donald trump and i think some of the polling shows that. I believe that our campaign can win in the states we have got to win. And that is michigan, wisconsin, pennsylvania, florida. And in all of those states, the polling has me at this point ahead and i think that numbers will only grow in the months ahead. True. The tweet you had today about the situation is you said the cats out of the back, corporate wing of the Democratic Party is anybody but bernie, they know raising wages is the real threat. Elizabeth warren cant be their poster child, right . Shes been going after corporate conglomerates in a big way for a long time. That tweet was not about Elizabeth Warren, not at all. Elizabeth is a friend of mine and were going to run issueoriented campaigns. This was a strong statement about a group called third way. And you know that third way is the corporatist wing of the Democratic Party. And i am a little bit tired of hearing from these people. And this is not the first time ive heard about it. And they say we will support anybody except Bernie Sanders. So i dont mind taking on Corporate America and trump and the republican party, but i have a question for third way and that is if i win the democratic nomination, who are they going to support . Are they going to support donald trump . Or are they going to support Bernie Sanders . Chris, one of the very first questions that i was asked when i got into this race, people said, bernie, if you dont win, will you support another democratic candidate and i said absolutely. I will do everything i can to defeat President Trump. And if that candidate turns out to be a lot more conservative than me, i will knock my brains out to see that he or she is elected because i want to defeat donald trump. So im asking this corporate wing of the Democratic Party, a wall streetfunded group called third way, if i win the nomination, are you going to be there with me or go over to donald trump . We will reach out to them during the show and see if i can get you an answer in realtime. Its a worth question to be answered by them. What happened with biden, you had said cory booker is right, joe biden should apologize for saying something nice about segregationist types. He came back tonight its unfair to make him apologize for his record on civil rights. He was talking about the fact that he was able to work with them, not that he liked them. We all have to work with people with whom we have very different point of views. I do it every day. But i think to be singing the praises of people who were vicious segregationists is not something that anybody he was talking about working with them. Is that the same thing as singing their praises . Im not sure about that. Thats all. I appreciate your candor and i appreciate you talking raw politics with me. I know you like to get into the policies but at the end of the day you got to convince people you can beat the person whos job you want to take. Youre always welcome here. Thank you, chris. Whats fueling the rise of Elizabeth Warren . You just heard there, that tweet today was not about her, it was about this other group within the Democratic Party. Okay.

So lets bring in harry enten to help us. Before we get into the numbers, this biden thing, all right, it was interesting to me to hear Bernie Sanders say, no, you know what im not giving him a pass on it. He shouldnt have talked about those guys that way. How big a deal is bidens processing of his past . We have seen a lot of attacks and it hasnt moved the polling numbers. Joe biden is dominating among africanamerican voters and they want to take any bit of that pot that they possibly can. Theyve brought up past votes with joe biden that havent moved the poll numbers. But theyre hoping this one will be able to eat into that support. Im not sure that it necessarily will, hes been dominating among older voters. So im a little hesitant to say this will move the numbers. Well know soon enough. Warren is making a move up the charts on is it fair to say shes taking a bite out of sanders apple . Take a look at this. This is a Monmouth University poll and they have a june, a may and an april. In june what we see is that warren is slightly ahead of Bernie Sanders at 15 to 14 . Look at the movement from warren. She went from 6 in april, 10 in may, 15 in june. Look at the trend line for bernie. As senator warren goes up, Bernie Sanders is falling down. Why . Weve broken this down by liberal democrats and moderate to conservatives. We see Elizabeth Warren jumped up from 14 to may to 25 in june but take a look at the moderate to conservative, she hasnt moved at all. Shes starting to take the lead among liberal democrats and thats the lane shes dominating right now. How much is it about monmouth versus in the other poll, Bernie Sanders was at the same 15 , Elizabeth Warren was at 10 . You might find Bernie Sanders a little bit ahead of Elizabeth Warren. You see that warren has risen to now the mid double binldigits i june. And you see joe staying flat. Well see what happens because everybody is starting to get loved up by the media one by one, beto, buttigieg, warren. If you are Bernie Sanders and youre looking over your shoulder at warren, what are you paying attention to . I think there are a few things that i would point out that i would be paying attention to and this i think is an interesting thing thats going on. Elizabeth warren has focused her campaign on issues, i have a policy plan for everything. And this is a poll when warren was starting to rise. And what did we see . Which candidate has the best policy ideas. Elizabeth warren was getting 19 of that. Compared to which candidate do you think has the best chance of beating trump. Elizabeth warren was only at 3 of that. Right now her rise is mostly because voters are focusing on the fact that she has all of these policy plans. If she is not able to convince them that she can beat donald trump, look at this, these are the voters that she needs to win over, moderate to conservatives and shes not doing that right now. She needs to have a clear trend line, a movement up with them because this block of voters make up about 50 of the party and this block also makes up 50 . If youre only rising with 50 of the party and the other 50 are flat, thats more than enough to win the nomination. She can hurt sanders more than shes hurting biden. You just gave us some great perspective on what senator sanders was achieving in his hit with us. Forget about policy, ive got a plan to beat trump one on one and thats what we need. That was an interesting turn for him. Maybe this poll is why, him not giving biden a pass when it comes to being nice to segregationists. He wants to get in the voters minds that joe biden, that doesnt mean hes more electable. I want to point out one other thing which is the attention paid to the campaign and this is another key thing for Elizabeth Warren, those voters who are paying a lot more some attention, hes doing very, very well versus Bernie Sanders, has the exact different thing going on. People who are paying little to no attention, hes doing his best. A handsome genius. Two handsome geniuses. Well take one. We were from joe biden tonight.

Joe biden is drawing a lot of fire tonight for touting his past work with two segregationists senators. Critics, his own opponents, want him to apologize. Based on what the veep just said, they shouldnt hold their breath. Are you going to apologize . Apologize for what . Cory booker has called for it. Corey should apologize. He knows better. Theres not a racist bone in any body. Ive been involved in civil rights my whole career, period, period, period. Lets use that as the part of tonights great debate. Great to have you both here. Do you buy bidens pushback, dont be telling me i have problems with civil rights, ive been fighting this fight from the beginning, i remember the civility of working with these guys, not that i liked them. Is that enough . No, its not. I think that joe biden has a real problem here. He keeps saying that he liked working with segregationists, not just on the democratic side. He bragged about working with strum thurman. So hes got to stop bragging about how much he likes racists. And i know thats his calling card. He says i love to work with the other side, he also did the 1994 crime bill and hes proud to have authored that originally in 91. These are pretty disastrous if youre going for a Democratic Party or general are you being fair to him in con tex. Im listening to you and i get the point. He didnt say he loved racists. He said that he remembered being able to work with those guys even though he didnt agree with what was going on and it was a statement about how nobody can work with anybody. And bussing, youve heard his answer on that about what it was a different time about and what he was trying to achieve. And the 94 bill, that was assault weapons, that was protecting women, and it was a time of fear. And there were a lot of people on both sides of the aisle calling for that, black and white, by the way, within the Democratic Party. Chris, so lets clarify a couple things. Some people who voted for the crime bill say they deeply regret it. Joe biden is not among them. He still says hes browaproud te authored that. Its very important that he did not change on those issues. And i did not say that he loves racists. I said he loves working with people on the opposite side including racists and thats a fact because thats what he said. And then what im also worried about is that he likes working with republicans. Is to i dont want him working with Mitch Mcconnell to get more tax cuts for the rich. He was in a room full of rich donors. Im more worried about that than what he did 30, 40 years ago. I hear you. You maybe wondering, why am i here . Ordinarily this is an opportunity to play to advantage. But i dont think you have the right horse to play to advantage here because we all know donald trump can convince people of a lot of things, hes not going to convince people that joe biden is more friendly with people with extremist views. Does any of this matter in terms of your campaign . Were proud of the president s record. As the democrats right now are arguing over segregationist comments from joe biden, President Trumps Just Announced the second step act for 88 million for prisoners to Reenter Society he also just said he wouldnt change his position on the central park five. He said there were no, he said now. Hell leave it at that. Chris, you come come on, you, weve been talking about the central park five and racism and all of these things going back to the 2016 election, people didnt believe it. They empowered President Trump to lead and he passed criminal justice reform, 91 of people were black americans. Historic lows from bloack poverty. If you want to keep bringing up central park five, keep doing it. Sometimes the truth may not work in a campaign. It doesnt mean its not the truth and he shouldnt come out. Ill never stop talking about it. In terms of playing to advantage, you guys are making a mistake eating your own when trump is going to say maybe im better for those people than their own. First of all, were in a primary right now. Theres 24 candidates in that race. Its incumbent upon us to pick the best candidate, the most electable one. And its going to be a populist progressive who says im going to deliver higher wages and health care all the things that trump promised you but was lying about he did. Let me finish the point. Right, but you what do you say to her counter . First of all, its funny that shes trying to claim that shes on the side of facts when the Washington Post has donald trump lying over 10,000 times in 869 days. Hes a pathological liar. He just said the other day that hes going to round up millions of undocumented what about paychecks . You literally just said let me finish. You literally just said paychecks are not going up. Defend that. You love to filibuster. Hold on. You dont have footnotes to your facts. Deal with the specific criticism. Do you believe this president has been better for wages if those communities than was the case prior . Absolutely not. If you adjust for inflation, wages are flat. The only thing he did was deliver for the rich. The only thing he accomplished was tax cuts for the rich and the average american got nothing, absolutely nothing. If you adjust for inflations, wages didnt go up at all. Hes a pathological liar. The only thing he built was tax cuts for the rich and corporations. He built no wall. Undocumented immigrants are crossing at a record pace. He delivered on none of his promises except to his Rich Campaign donors. Last word to you, kaylee. Unlike you, i have footnotes to my fact. The bureau of economic analysis, wages are growing at the fastest pace in a decade and a cnn poll from i believe it was two months ago showing 75 of americans say the economy is in good shape. You can say these lies on national television. But according to cnn, people think the economy is going well. Youre speaking to the 25 . Ill continue to speak to the 75 . You support pathological liars. And i gave you a fact about it adjusted for inflation. You have no answer for that. All you ever do is lie. And you know will you come out here and agree if in six months he hasnt rounded up millions of undocumented immigrants that you were wrong and i was right and trump is a liar. Yes, well make a date of it. Well come back in six months. Thank you for making the arguments and disagrees with decency. Did democrats expect longtime trump loyalist hope hicks to deliver today . Are they really surprised when she came in there, that she stonewalled . What does that mean about what they need to do if they want to get answers going forward.

Look, none of this has been easy in terms of oversight with this administration for the democrats in congress but they did get hope hicks in to testify, but she totally stuck to the script handing the house Judiciary Committee a whole lot of no comments. This white house is claiming absolute immunity something said they will, quote, destroy in court, but that takes time. Steve cohen was in the hearing room. Always a pleasure to have you on the show first. Am i right or wrong that she was not answering questions . They exercised immunity and she abided by it for everything from january 2017, the beginning of the trump administration, so there was no answers there at all. And before that during the campaign, she had a very limited recall and didnt remember any of the things that possibly could have occurred. Either she didnt listen in all those meetings or she wasnt there. Was there refreshment of recollection for her to help with the intrigue surrounding the payments and the stories that were put out by the campaign, some of which were by her about who was paid and when and why. Nothing seemed to jar her memory and she said i dont remember that, no, there was nothing about this, no, there was nothing about that. There was no talk about russia, about kislyak, sanctions, there was no talk. I guess they talked about, you know, hillary and locking her up. So, congressman, where does this leave you . You guys right now are telling your party and the country, look, this is the way to do it. We go through these hearings, well fight where we have to in court, well get the facts together and well figure out if we have reasonable basis for starting an impeachment inquiry. My question has been all along, isnt that what an impeachment inquiry is and you have more power to get people like hope hicks to talk and less time in court. I agree with you. Im in favor of an impeachment inquiry and in favor of impeachment. Theres enough in the Mueller Report based on obstruction of justice, theres enough with disrespect for the first amendment, for the press, for the judiciary, et cetera, and then for just his refusal to abide by or understand the law, ill accept foreign information on my opponent and wont listen to what wray says, ill say hes wrong. These are the kinds of things that shows he cant execute the laws which is the oath he takes. And thats the basis of impeachment. So where does this go from here . Well, to be honest, without Nancy Pelosis blessing, its not going to go anywhere. We have 68 folks who are in favor of impeachment or impeachment inquiries, there are more that are out there. And i think more will be coming forth. I just think that we need to act partially because its our duty. We have an oath. And impeachment is part of the constitution and those of us in judiciary are charged with respecting the constitution and supporting it and its clear, and if the senate wont convict and the senate wont convict, i dont think thats a reason not to bring impeachment in the house. We will do our job, if the senate doesnt do there. I think they will be dealt with by the voters. Its not to be good conscious and not fear of consequence. Well see where that goes. And now lets deal with what youre going to do about what happened in the past. What did you make on this hearings of reparations today. The fact that it happened at all was remarkable and what did you take away from the room . Well, i think it was a remarkable day. We had great testimony, we had the star, danny glover was great, wonderful witnesses and good questioning from both sides on the committee. But it was a great debate and it shows why we need to have a study of reparations. This isnt going to say were going to have reparations. Its not going to say were going to have a check for people. Its going to say were going to look into it. A law professor said what he says is influx of money for job training for people who were left behind and others in the areas where there are high rates of unemployment, health deserts, need for job training, et cetera, we dont know what the study would produce. But the discussion today was robust. It went to a lot of history, what africanamericans and their an ancestors have suffered from in this country. We had a hundred years of jim y crow. And since and the injury is obvious. Its what the damage is what the award would be for the damages just to use legal parlance. When you have the Senate Majority leader saying you got obama, we gave you the civil rights, what else do you want . What is the prospect of really getting anything productive done . Well, i dont know that well get any passed in this congress. Until the senate turns democrat, were not going to get much passed all. Mitch mcconnell has made it clear that hes going to kill all legislation that comes from the house for the peoples agenda, including health care, lower prescription drugs, guaranteeing health care for people with preexisting conditions, helping work on gun legislation, eliminating loopholes and make sure they get background checks, working on climate changes, hes going to kill it audiotapll. We need to have a democratic senate. The Voting Rights act was passed in 1965. Were trying to renew it. The last time we tried to renew it we had less support in the house and senate. Thank you.
