thanks for your time. thanks a bunch. brian: coming up straight ahead, the pentagon cracking down on free speech for social media for members of the military? we are going to break it down with one of our finest congressman michael waltz former green beret himself. first, build back better is dead thanks to senator joe manchin, we just talked about it don t think joe biden and the democrats are done trying. mick mulvaney will bring us inside of washington in a matter of moments. story? my truck.is my livelihood. so when my windshield cracked. the experts at safelite autoglass came right to me. with service i could trust. right, girl? singers: safelite repair, safelite replace.
can i make it cost a trillion dollars. it s really easy to manipulate the system. and manchin manchin knows that everybody in washington, d.c. knows that what i think you are seeing is he pushing back. he has always wanted a delay. he always said let s have a pause. is he asking a lot of the right questions. we still have enough money to defend ourselves if something goes wrong with china our russia? will this impact inflation? how it will it affect my people in west virginia. asking the right questions. questions we are glad he is asking. that doesn t mean he doesn t vote for something going forward. there is still a difference between having a democrat controlled senate and a republican controlled senate. we are starting to see again that elections do have consequences. again, i m happy we don t have the bill passed right now. i think people that are patting themselves on the back saying it s over are acting way too quickly. brian: speculation made by the wall street journal and
to the capability and performance of our military and you have secretary of defense austin making it his number one priority as soon as he took office. .007%. then the other thing, you know, it s just remembering that timothy mcvay back in the 1990s who blew the face of off of a building as a member of the militia was a member of the military. you had nadal hasan who was radicalized and attacked soldiers at fort hood there. has always been a fringe element. we should always be on the lookout for it this narrative that it s just exploding across our service members is insulting, i think, to you are oveterans. it s insulting to me and it s a totally misplaced priority on the part of this leadership in the pentagon. and in the white house. brian: listen, i was able to do a few events in and around virginia and washington. i had more people come up to me who i didn t know who worked in
something going way in china. many fear it is ushering in a strong man leader. cult of person thalt could potentially take the world down a pretty dangerous path. especially as china s power continues to grow. will ripley, thank you for the brave and important work you are doing on the ground in that region. let s get straight to our panel now. cnn political commentator, and washington bureau chief for the chicago sun-times. lynn, it is shocking to hear a president, american president, praise an autocrat. but president trump has done this before. shown an affinity for strong men. so are you surprised? i m not surprised that trump tried to make a joke out of something that should not be joked about or at least probably not in the way that he did because when it comes to international fairs, you don t have an audience of people who are there to be entertained. and it is serious matters. so it does give rise and
a solution to open you our doors. you have a strong conviction there. do you think you are prepared to run an entire state? there have been people in history who i feel have been less prepareed. if someone is willing to help the community and dot work they should have a say? what happens. last month in the wake of that horrific mass shooting at the high school in parkland, florida, we saw students, like yourself, step up, demanding change in washington. and today s civil rights acon, congressman john lewis, talked to our dana bash about the response of those young people. i want you to listen to what he said. there s a new organic movement of young people begging washington, begging their local leaders for change. what do you see in the new movement? well, i see so much hope. so much of our future. in this youth movement. the movement of young people. the movement of women.
