funding israel, which i support but we re also funding israel s enemies and funding hamas. this is the kind of duplicitous crap the american people retired up. so i d like to go back to the drawing board, pass israel, stand alone and not have this package that has that funding and it that i think is nefarious and focus on the border first. so in terms of the border issue i asked him a lot of house republicans wants to have strengthening the border, tougher restrictions on the border and immigration, et cetera. as part of this, why isn t it part of it? and he said it s very simple. i have slanderous majority in the history of the congress. i i can only lose one vote. and therefore because there are so many republicans who will vote against the rule to introduce this legislation that he would need democratic votes to interest produce the rule to allow the votes on this legislation. and democrats won t have, they won t vote for anything that includes the immigration stuff that s why
so right yeah the other kind with this back out there and you are saying donald trump definitely lost republican voters, because the majority of iowa voters believed he won. iowa republicans and you also in order to make an electability argument, which might elect to most people did not vote for donald trump, right? these are the iron party. because you can t say he is a loser because he didn t lose. here s how you do it. there was the deal that people made that put up all the drama and all the craziness and all the kind of moral questionable list that allegedly went against what republican values were, in exchange for the justices, in exchange for the immigration stuff. they got most of what they wanted, a lot of what they wanted. so, there s no real reason to put up but at this point they like the drama. at this point, i think
to fight this all the way up to the supreme court if i have to. interesting the lawsuit from the department of justice is not specifically about immigration. that s important. yes. and like freud would say, sometimes a lawsuit against ill grags isn t a lawsuit against immigration. what the justice department was very careful to do was file this lawsuit on environmental grounds because of the fact that american law gives the federal government sole discretion over waterways of the united states. there are treaties with mexico governing how the rio grande is to be managed. when you put big buoys up the middle of the rio grande, you re violating a national waters law. it they said this is merely for violating the sovereignty of the united states and that s why they re suing. will it be successful? i think they have a strong argument there if you don t make it about the moral immigration stuff. there s the big if. appreciate it. thank you. a truck driver who attacked a police off
marjorie taylor greene is like, here s a wi we re going to structure s.n.a.p. work requirements. they have to go on podcasts and fill in on newsmax. none of them want to actually do this. in the end when you re actually doing a deal like this, the most dangerous people, and lawrence is someone who has worked on the hill, people who combine idealogical verosity with knowledge. that s why stephen miller was so dangerous on immigration stuff. he knew what he was talking about. these folks don t have that. they can t actually extract meaningful policy concessions because they don t have the knowledge to do it. sorry, alex, i want to ask you specifically this. there was one other policy personality the table that got a lot. chris hayes did talk about it last night on his show. let s talk about joe manchin for a moment. the thing is this was a triumph of ordinary politicians. he s og of ordinary politicians
vice president is the perfect job for a black woman shouldn t be, but it is. and whatever you do accomplish whatever you do accomplish, all they re gonna do is just give the man credit for anything you do the immigration stuff you don t knocked out. then you got all this banking and you ve got the internet down there taking care of all this postpartum stuff. they just gonna give a man credit for what you ve done. by the way, mr president. great job of being the first woman vice president. i don t even know how you did that part. wonderful job. happy to be here. but tonight. tonight is all about you all the journalists the defenders of free speech. people who show truth to the world through different mediums through television through print through radio through whatever china let us see on tiktok. but the industry that covers all of
