Host host welcome back. We are joined by congressman joe barton, a republican member of the house energy and commerce committee. Thank you for joining us. Later this week the committee will have the first hearing on the web site healthcare. Gov. Tell us what are your biggest questions . Guest my biggest question is why they put that much money into something that flat out doesnt work. Theres been lots of socalled which is over the years and other web sites in the private sector, but weve never had a website that almost no one gets through the first time without any problems. So we have the contractors this their stay and the next thursday the secretary Kathle
Are proof of this. During a time of war, we ask our troops to give their best even to the point of sacrificing their own lives. When compared against that how much of a sacrifice is it for a president to engage in a possibly contentious debate. How much of a sacrifice is it for a member of congress to debate and vote about whether military action is a good idea . While congressional members face the political costs of debate on military action, our Service Members bear the human costs of those decisions. And if we dhoos avoid debate, avoid accountability, avoid a hard decision, how can we demand that our military willingly sacrifice their very lives . So i await the president s address on the real and significant threat posed by isil with a firm willingness to offer support to a wellcrafted military mission. I believe the American Public and this congress will support such a mission. It is my deepest hope that we have the opportunity to debate and vote on the mission in the halls of co

There are also a number of legal questions about the president s actions and whether he may have violated local or federal law when he urged george geor ed ge to, quote, find the votes necessary to overturn the election. As he dangled vague criminal consequences over their heads. But the ballots are corrupt. And you are going to find that which is totally illegal. Its more illegal for y
Its been a long time for a little one, but if you have to endure all this time, maybe that be your coat. Amen. Theres both of them. There we go. Imagine if you were fortunate enough to host a show deadline white house, and it happens around this time, when finish it for me the white house. What a day. This will be the first transfer of power that deadline white house has covered. We actually came on the air the day that donald trump fired jim comey. As soon as i came off the air, brian, i hopped back on the air with you in this very studio. The rest is historic. I think this has been one of those presidencies where wieldly the hyper aging didnt hit the president , but hit everybody in the media. We saw him last night, and he looks fine. [ laughter ] but all the reporters covering it, we are a disaster. We look like weve been through a fouryear hyperaging process. Its amazing, though, watching Vice President harris to think she is one of the people we covered, because she was one of the
