a really good job of squirming around my questions. okay. i see you setting up hang on. let me finish, please, sir, what i see you setting up, quite frankly, if this document doesn t give you the evidence that you re looking for, then you re going to keep digging, even if it does, you re going to keep digging. no matter what is in this document, what the fbi does or doesn t do, they re political. in this particular instance, we ll be fair, as i think we always are. wow. now that s how you do it. that was good. let s bring in the host of the podcast on brand with donny deutsche, donny deutsche. and columnist for the daily beast, david roth cough joins us this morning. good to have you both this morning. we talk about the hypocrisy of these republicans and the fbi, donny, they talk about wanting to defund the fbi. they talk about the fbi going after donald trump in 2016 and beyond. they don t talk about the fbi
to support continue to support enthusiastically this war, if that dims, how does that affect where the united states stands in terms of supporting zelenskyy and then how does that affect where zelenskyy tries to go into negotiations? when you see russia aggressively trying to get other support, there s even stories of african countries that are siding with russia. how do the politics work? i actually don t think this is a big political issue here. i don t see people going to the polls, if you look at the midterm elections virtually nobody was voting on the basis of this. it comes up every now and come primary or debates way to differentiate trump and desantis on this. i don t see this as a big political issue. this is not going to bring in part we re not involved militarily on the ground in the sense of american soldiers. there s no bring the troops back kind of thing. so i think whoever is president is going to have considerable discretion, either to continue
a document that republicans hoped to obtain today that they say contains allegations that joe biden committed financial crimes in his time as vice president. despite not yet seeing the document, fallon was adamant yesterday that it could implicate biden in a crime, yet he seemed to brush off the possibility of the same unseen document exonerating the president. if it disproves or dispels suspicions and allegations, will that exonerate then vice president biden? oh, no, not at all. it s just once it s just one document. it s an fd 1023, one claim. there s so many others. is the fbi credible, let me finish, either when the agency is investigating the former vice president or the former president? is the fbi, and its sources, credible? of course you hope so, but you also don t want to see two different a two-tier justice system. so congressman, you re doing
wins. the thing is, though, not even some wins, david. historic number of bipartisan pieces of legislation. you can just look at data. you can look at the evidence. you can look at the hard facts. joe biden has already in three years had more bipartisan legislation than i mean any president this century. certainly more than donald trump, more than barack obama during his eight years, more than george w. bush during his eight years. i think probably more than bill clinton during his eight years. though bill clinton did have a good bit of bipartisan legislation as well. but certainly in three year s time he has done more as far as legislation goes and bipartisan legislation than any president this century. we can say it. it s true. well, you put your finger on it. the reason they don t talk about the facts is that the facts make the case against them and make the case for biden.
old saying, nothing succeeds like success. yeah. and that s what we re seeing here. if he keeps piling up the numbers and when you go into campaign mode, you can do that and who knows. maybe republicans will continue mailing their mailers of trans swimmers from 2020 into people s mailboxes across swing states and continue losing. looking for laptops. let s bring in nbc news white house correspondent mike memoli who has new reporting on president biden s re-election campaign. mike, what are biden s plans now that the debt limit deal is behind him and maybe he can focus a little bit on this. that s right, mika. the president and his team certainly took a lot of lumps over the course of the last month during these debt negotiations. even fellow democrats thinking he was creeding to kevin mccarthy. that was strategic. their ethos was to prioritize the win and the idea of getting in a daily tit for tat with
