hoyer and mr. clooiburn. i ve learned a lot from them. if democrats don t take back the house, will you continue to support the leadership team? we also have amazing colleagues out there that leader pelosi as well as stanley and jim have pulled into the ranks as well. there s many more colleagues elected to their positions like myself rather than being appointed. this was something elected by our colleagues. i think the more our colleagues step forward and ask for their support of the democratic caucus, that s a good thing. the more people want to fight on behalf of the american people, i m all about that. congressman, thank you very much. thank you for talking about that breaking news over the last hour. we want to have you back to talk more about the mid terms. we want to quickly hit today s big picture in hawaii. this is pretty big. you re looking at a volcano which erupted this morning. check this out.
it never was about ideology. i m a progressive. i have a lot of strong progressive positions and i stand by my record. that s not what this was about. when you have a candidate that s been writing they d rather have their teeth pulled out than move back to the state that they re running in without anesthesia, that s concerning. and then when they continue to write articles that offend the african american community, people with disabilities, people from texas, i think that s disqualifying. and i stand by that decision. so no regrets on that. jim clayburn recently said all democratic leaders should step down if dems don t win the house back in november. do you agree? i think all our colleagues and people across the country want us fighting for them, and they want us to be focusing on those efforts. our colleagues have been clear. and i support many of our leadership that we have in place today. i support leader pelosi and mr.
