a lot of things done instead of wasting everyone s time. the president had minor discussions with nancy pelosi of any such of infrastructure build. beyond that, the president is suggesting that any oversight of his administration amounts to a witch hunt. there by it seems like he s insinuating that he s above the law. the big question we are asking today is can the white house get away with congress to go at itself. joining me is geoff bennett and our daily beast white house reporter and our washington post reporter, phil bum. heidi, this reporting started off yesterday with you when you are talking about white house refusing to handle information when it came to jared kushner. what else are we learning today? this is part of a butch
needs to be coordination between chair men of the economy. so there isn t overlap. we re asking discussion about this. yesterday, the democratic majority passed hr 1, voting rights, a bill that voting rights. we re not talking about that in the news. this gives people of the territories to look into options of voting. those are things we should be talking about and we re not. so i think we need to be precise in our investigations while at the same time doing the people s work. making sure there s job security, infrastructure build and others. when you supported that house resolution yesterday that condemned anti-semitism, it started as a resolution, focused on anti-semitism from congressman omar, then it was reconstructed not to focus just on omar and her comments but a
rotary club or coaching little league, knowing the people two doors down from them, the vast majority of americans want their politics to do a smaller number of things but do them with some urgency, do an infrastructure build that s actually cost effective and stop pretending to find the good and evil because normal people think all the people addicted to political identities are weirdos. to that end, you say social media which has connected us with infinitely more people has actually made us less connected. how so? so it turns out from 200 to 500 social media friends or 500 to 1,000 social media friends, you don t get any happier. if you know the person two doors down from you though, statistically, you re much more likely to be happy and guess what? if you re addicted to your iphone and the average american checks our phone every 4 minutes, you re statistically less likely to know the person two doors from you and knowing that person would make you
implement certain goals that we have for the american people and they elected us on, which is protecting health care and the affordable care act and preexisting conditions, which the republican governors brought a lawsuit that they were successful lawsuit where they were successful in texas to strike down on the affordable care act, and we want to support giving people pre-existing conditions and health care and working on the prescription drug prices and the awful ethics that have been going on, and clean up the swamp and creating jobs through a strong infrastructure build. impeachment will certainly be in the mood, and there will be hearings on things like on clause violations, and there will be efforts to protect special counsel mueller and all of those things have to do with impeachment, and the front burners will be making every day
of the white house, lower taxes and lower limited government messaging. for them to really take a step here to increase government spending and increase the amount of kind of government with infrastructure build and spending, this will have repercussions in the 2018 mid terms. with that said, there s going to be questions out there about 2018 being a referendum on trump s presidency. so he s going to want a legislative win. if he can work with democrats on this, i think he will. this is on the president s agenda for that reason, because he, again, doesn t want to see this be a narrative he wants to win, win, win. absolutely. this is one that i think he thinks he can win on and he thinks would be a boost to the economy. although i would caution not to go the way of obama s infrastructure plan, where we spent $800 billion and really wound up with no growth as a result. so the critical thing for him will be to involve the private
