polls. that s not the problem. no matter how many people you get to the polls, if you set up a process by which you can nullify the result, and that s what they ve been indulging, that s what we re trying to get rid of. it sounds like you ve run out of patient, congressman clyburn. yes, i have, absolutely. that is a very angry jim clyburn. the senate is scheduled to begin debate tomorrow. there are three senate democrats in ukraine right now on that very important mission. so when is chuck schumer going to be able to hold this vote? reporter: andrea, he ll get to hold at least the first vote by the end of the week. that s on the up or down question of passing these voting rights bills. with brian schatz having covid late last week, the plans got totally thrown out of whack. those senators who are abroad in ukraine will be back in time for whatever the final votes are on the voting rights piece. it s that second piece, the votes on changing the rules of the senate, which we now
democrats of his day managed to get it through over the filibuster. they ve got to press on because it is that consequential to the democracy. that s the point. but presidents obama and johnson were not face ago 50/50 senate, and the likelihood in the upcoming midterms of a big defeat or the possibility unless things turn around. andrea, you re right about the math, and i appreciate the reality of that, but i also appreciate what this means in georgia, in florida, in ohio, in wisconsin, all these places where these regressive bills have passed and where over 50 million americans are likely to have all kinds of difficult conditions imposed on their vote. they have to push on. they have to make an attempt to pass this now, and if they fail in this instance, you know what? they ve got to come back again and again, just as they have to come back on the economic and climate plans as well. you don t give up. at the time that dr. king passed away, andrea, he had a 75%
cbs about how they were not rescued they themselves by the fbi, but they were rescued by him having had counterterror training because so many synagogues have been, you know, attacked and on guard, that he threw a chair at the hostage taker? yeah, i think the number one thing in having gone to a number of these classes whether it be for active shooter, anti-hostage, andrea, the focus is if you can get away and you can run away and you can get out, that s what you need to do. that s the most important thing. so this account, which our colleague mike hozner has confirmed with several law enforcement officials and from the rabbi himself, obviously, saying this morning in an interview with cbs that he they saw an opening at some point, the other hostages and himself. he told them to leave the building and then he threw a chair at this hostage taker and himself fled the building.
know, face saving tactical move that they can do to deescalate. i think their only chance, frankly is a much bigger, bigger negotiation, not just missiles here, troop movements there, but i call it, andrea, helsinki 2.0. helsinki in 1975, we all sat there for three years, by the way, the negotiations took three years, and it was basically a settlement of world war ii, a settlement about the borders that had not been resolved and codified since world war ii with the soviet union, the united states, canada, and most of europe, and i think you need a big negotiation like that because if we try to square the circle like peter just said on nato and ukraine, there s a no win strategy there. there s a no win play for president biden. and what about arming the ukrainian insurgents, you know, expanding what would have been, you know, a likely grass roots guerrilla movement.
work. reporter: i ve had the chance to speak to a number of of organizers here in georgia, some of the people who played a key role, an instrumental role in flipping the state blue for joe biden back in 2020. they say if there aren t as they call them federal guardrails in place in their words to offset or curtail the law that has been put in place here in georgia by the republican-led state legislature, they re very concerned about what the midterms are going to look like in november. andrea. thanks so much, blayne, and garrett, i want to play what we heard from jim clyburn about the opponents of the voting rights bill and the changes to the filibuster. (. we are all on the wrong side of history as they are misquoted and misusing the history of this country. i want to say the people on my side stop talking about all we need to do is out organize and rally and get out people to the
