Confront a dangerous adversary but theres a new uncertain phase why a little Today Biden broke offer talks with Republican West Virginia Senator Capito for a bipartisan infrastructure and Jobs Bill after weeks of talks and the West Virginia Senator says the Sticking Point was taxes. The last offer that i got from the president had four Tax Increases in it. We were in it to win it for the men people and miss a real opportunity for at least 20 republicans to join with the democrats to pass the most robust Infrastructure Package that we could have. Late today the White House issued a statement that noted biden told Senator Capito the latest offer did not meet the essential needs of the country. The White House said Joe Biden is talking to a group in the senate, sinema, manchin, cassidy of louisiana and that he plans to be in touch with them by phone in europe. Statement also says biden told Chuck Schumer to get ready to bring some economic plans to the floor for possible votes in july. We all know as a caucus we wont do all the things the country needs in a bipartisan way and so at the same time we are pursuing the pursuit of reconciliation. Translation there, be prepared to see Party Line votes to pass at least some of Bidens Agenda why wont help the pending voting right legislation. Today the man in the news Democrat Joe Manchin whose opposition means the bill is going nowhere met with civil rights leaders who argue passage is crucial. Manchins position appears to be unchanged. What we had a great, respectful, a very informative, very good conversation. We had and as a starting of a good relationship. Really was. And it turns out bipartisanship in the senate may not be on full Life Support just yet. The chamber did approve a proposal to counter chinas growing economic and military power. Senators from both sides of the aisle behind a new completed investigation into the January 6th Capitol Attack but as we show you some of the reporting from the Capitol Hill Correspondent Garrett Haake Tonight you will see the results raise more questions like why not call it an insurrection when the riot was aimed at overturning the Election Result . Reporter a report blames Intelligence And Security failures and an ill prepared Police Force for the January 67th attack. The report find that despite calls for violence neither the dhs or the fbi issued a threat assess mts. The Intel Unit aware but failed to inform them. Officers lempt to defend without Riot Gear or orders. One saying a lutd repeatedly asked orr the radio, does anybody have a plan . This sergeant just returned to duty after recovering from injuries of that day. The Crowd Wouldnt listen to anything that the police were saying at all. They continue to say, we are here because our president , President Trump send us here. Reporter mr. Trumps role in the attack was not examined in the report reigniting the debate of a commission to investigate. The joint report has strengthened the argument for an independent commission. Todays report is one of the many reasons im confident in the ability of the existing investigations to uncover all actionable facts. In a nutshell thats where the politics are. In a statement responding to the Report Capitol Police said known intelligence did not indicate a large Scale Attack on January 6. Department of Homeland Security said its reviewing the report. The Vice President has been focused on another dhs priority, Kamala Harris spent today in mexico, the final leg of her trip to address the issue of migration to the southern border. She is repeatedly criticized by some mostly on the right for not yet visiting the border after Vice President but as she was a former California Senator it would not be the first trip. This was her response late tonight. If youre from california you know ive spent a lot of time on the border both going there physically and aware of the issues. But the reality of it is is that we need to prioritize whats happening at the border and we have to prioritize why people are going to the border. With that lets bring in the leadoff guests. Phillip rucker for the washington post. Katie benner with The New York Times. And retired u. S. Army lieutenant general russell honore, of 37 years of Military Service that led the Relief Effort on the ground in New Orleans after katrina and just led the review of Capitol Hill Security after 1 6. Good evening. Welcome. Phil, i have to begin with you and your beat. Lets start with this. This was congresswoman jaypas on this network today. There was not a single republican vote for not enough republican votes for the January 6 commission. This party is not interested in delivering for the people. We should move ahead. Get the Budget Resolutions going and do a budget reconciliation bill. Big, bold and fast. So, phil, it is obvious to you spending time in washington, a lot of democrats want democrats to act like democrats. Can biden orient this way . Can he win this way . Look. President biden has invested much of this spring in trying to find a bipartisan deal on this Infrastructure Package. Week after week of negotiation. With Senator Capito in hopes of bringing the two parties together but a lot of democrats on the left including Congress Wol Jayapal and she is not alone has felt this was something that was a waste of time and political capital for this White House. They wanted to see the white House Move very quickly to pass this Infrastructure Package through reconciliation and effectively means it requires 50 votes in the Senate Plus is. That appears to be what senator schumer the democratic Majority Leader is preparing at this how shall to at least move part of this package through in that Manner But Biden is continuing some talks with that trio. Manchin, sinema and cassidy. Frustration clearly on the left as Progressive Democrats want to see this become law and feel like the time is wasting here. General, over to you. If that on 1 6 wasnt an insurrection it will do until the insurrection gets here. That was a Vie Leapt Mob attempt to overturn the results of a president ial election. Speaker pelosi chose you to conduct the after situation security review. I wonder what you make of the report that refuses to use the word insurrection. Lets put it this way. I think first of all what this report affirmed is what we need the house on the 5th of march, reaffirm to get on with securing the capitol with resources that are required. More training. More intelligence. More technology. Clean up the Chain Of Command for the Capitol Police and then what in the hell was the rest of the government doing that day with fbi, department of Homeland Security, department of defense, the Secret Service where the mob came in the backyard and took over the most significant Government Building in our nation . What were they thinking . As far as them tailoring the language this is the reaffirm why we need a commission. If we leave this to individual committees the voices will be able to shape the report and will end up swiping this piece of one piece at a time and not coming out even and wont get The Truth. We need the commission to get to The Truth. We hope the members in the senate that turned back on the commission after seeing this report will get them the courage to stand up to seek The Truth because we need The Truth to come out. We need The Truth to come out if our democracy is going to survive. Because it was a insurrection and needs to be dealt with. Katie, The General as always raises great issues and great questions. Lets talk about the part of this that you cover. The sprawling federal investigation. The numbers seem to go up every week. Where does that fit in all of this . Whats the status of it . So to your point is investigation is ongoing and very important when we look at this report. Because we see that the Justice Department did not fully cooperate with the investigators. The Justice Department was not forthcoming with information. And part of the reason i think the department would always giver is theres an ongoing and active invest. This is going to be frustrating for democrats if we see the Justice Department under attorney general garland continue to block Information Investigators are seeking about the attack on the capitol, about the events leading up to it, about the white Houses Attempt to coop the Justice Department. And then whether or not the president s influence, the fears of the president actually impacted the national response. The Justice Department holds critical information and we have yet to see whether or not it will give that to investigators. Phil, give us some points to watch for as the president embarks on eight days overseas. Yeah. A few things. It is a hugely ambitious trip for President Biden. The first trip and visiting a great number of countries. Look to see him rebuild the alliances with the western allies. Germany, the uk, france, the other european countries. What is the relationship like with boris johnson. And then importantly that meeting that he will have with russian president vladimir putin. The White House has signaled this week that President Biden is going into that meeting from a position of strength and wants to hold Putin Accountable for what russia has done in terms of cyber attacks, the Election Interference here in the united states. Lets see if the tone and the posture from biden when he sits down with putin is different from what we saw a couple years ago in helsinki when former President Trump met with President Putin and really wanted to become putins friend. I suspect it will be a very different approach in this meeting but that could potentially be the highlight of this trip and excuse my puppy axle. He is agitated by something going on outside the window behind me. Okay. I was going to ask how the Puppy Training ask the question on Americas Mind right now, how the Puppy Training was going. Give the best to axle. Tell him d. C. Police have it covered. Which brings it back nicely to general honore. General, how secure we like to call it the seat of our government. How secure is that grand and beautiful u. S. Capitol Building Tonight in your estimation . I think right now the capitol is secure. The Capitol Police, ive encouraged to take on the mantra of hold the damn line. They are. Under the conditions of the capitol, we dont have public access. And as long as we dont have public access the number of officers and until the additional security the capitol is secure. Once we go to public access again that could be a bit challenging and way need augmentation but that is up to the Capitol Police board to make the recommendations and to bring additional help in. But you cannot go to public opening of the capitol now with the number of officers. Almost 300 officers short and last year they used 720,000 of overtime. The members in this committee that we discussed with the report came out today are reluck relung about the to add officers. You know what Leader Mcconnell Mover around theres eight or ten Capitol Police taking them to lunch, dinner, the meetings and back home to kentucky. Same thing with leader mccarthy. Those officers go with them everywhere they go. And those are same officers they will not support with the commission nor will they support the supplemental. It is time to look out for the officers that support them. There are things to improve on and theyre working on that but they need more resources and technology. So katie, last word falls on you tonight and may challenge even your extraordinary words of description. Tell the good folks how the Biden Doj because this is confusing, is going to in effect defend and or represent the Trump Doj . Yeah. So what we have seen is in several high profile instances, keep in mind, that this is probably the most high profile, it is a case in which 25 years ago Ej Carol accused carol recently accused the former president 25 years ago of sexually assaulted her when asked about president he said things that she believes is defamatory. The government said he made the comments as part of the duties as president aen the Justice Department required to defend the words. Taking us to Merrick Garland today. He said that decision is going to stand and move forward. We have seen garland defend decisions that he believes should be defended to protect the Justice Department and the Executive Branch in total as institutions instead of individuals. He is looking at this as a protective measure. Also we have seen him be extremely independent. He was chosen by President Biden to be an independent voice for the Justice Department, to protect the Justice Department and to shield it from political and White House considerations. Certainly President Biden has made it clear that he wishes the Justice Department would act differently. Im sure this is one of them but garland will be fully independent from President Biden. Even from the wishes of democrats. He is a centrist as he decides to protect the Justice Department, uphold the Rule Of Law and follow the letter of the law even on decisions to make people very politically unhappy. And it will be interesting the see how he does over the next year and a half as confronted with more political conundrums. Yeah. Well done. Indeed. A lot of democrats have been unhappy watching the Justice Department go back to the ideals it is supposed to stand for as they say in normal times. Mump obliged to the Big Three tonight. We covered a lot of ground. And a special Guest Appearance by axle rucker. Thank you all for coming on and starting us off. Coming up, what voting Rights Issue Mcconnell is not feeling it, assured the american people theres no need for a new law protecting voter just well talk to two political veterans about it.

Well, this should be interesting. [ grunting ] ive spent my entire life in your shadow. And now, you spend the rest of yours livin in mine. I aint going anywhere little brother. The legislation is critically important. And we have been as an administration, the president has been unambiguous that S 1, the for the people about needs to be pass jd the John Lewis Voting Rights Act needs to be passed. The odds of getting any voting Rights Legislation through congress are incredibly slim as we have this conversation tonight. Though we are increasingly a nation of Voter Suppression enthusiasts. Senator manchin effectively killed the for the Pooes Act when he announced hell oppose it and heres what Mitch Mcconnell had to say today. Its against the law to discriminate in voting on the base of race already. And so i think its unnecessary. So back with us again tonight, jason johnson, contributor, professor at morgan State University and a. B. Stoddard, Editor And Columnist for real clear politics. Jason, ill give you this dramatic reading from eugene robinson. Unless manchin changes his position on the filibuster ten republican senators woufr to cross the aisle and join with the democrats. So far there is one, senator murkowski. The other nine must be in some parallel dimension visible only to manchin where all the Tooth Fairies and unicorns are hiding. A. B. Having been told we lost jasons signal, the question will go to you. Ill put it politely. When did the democrats become the party of Fred Rogers . Brian, i listened to really the fascinating interviews in Lawrences Hour with the president of the urban League And Naacp who met with manchin today, Joe Manchin nicely came out and said, oh, it was really great. We are going to keep talking. No, no nobody changed their minds and the problem is while everyone wants to focus on Joe Manchin this never should have gotten to the point where civil rights leaders are going to Joe Manchin in june to ask him to change his mind. The party leaders, the president , his administration, his top people took it upon themselves to think that wooing him privately over these months was more effective than changing the bill. Its an Open Secret in washington that Hr 1 had no chance of passing through the senate as S 1. And being signed into law. That it has incredible flaws, crafted in 2019 without Consulting Key Stakeholders in the electoral process. The people who have to run elections and know that these mandates included in the bill without permanent streams of funding could not be met on time for 2022 or 2024. And they knew it was what the meet the Press Team called in the first Read Note on Nbc Today a Messaging Bill that was never intended to pass why this is a bill that was passed that was crafted before the 2020 election, before President Trump then President Trump designed eight months in advance a plan to, you know, propagandize that mailin ballots would steal the election from him. All of the bill that is started to appear in january and february and the past months to restrict voting are the house on fire. Hr 1 doesnt deal with that. Doesnt deal with whats going on in georgia where its not about the Vote Casting so much as the Vote Counting because theyre increasing partisan influence by the State Legislature and people who are not nonpartisan election officials in the process thereby corrupting the process and leaving open the door that those elections can be stolen and so this bill needs to be revamped and i know the administration and the Party Leadership in the senate and the house knew this months ago and if they wanted to address the emergency that these State Legislature bills are creating they needed to go back to the Drawing Board and needed to do it before Joe Manchin was the center of this debate. Jason johnson, your signal is back. Enough so that i see you shaking your head no. Yeah. Look. Lets be honest and not pretend that Manchins Opposition is based on a deep concern about whats actually the content of either piece of legislation. He was an original cosponsor of the for the people act and going back on something he cosponsored. John Lewis Act establishes a return of some variation of preclearance which would stop what happened in georgia and provide ways for the federal government to get involved. Joe manchin doesnt care about Reelection Or Minority Voting Rights and doesnt care about the legacy. This is a power move. If he really cared, if this was actually an issue of changes that needed to be made at either legislation guess what. He could say that. Joe Manchin Tomorrow could reenact that scene from Dave And Order pizza and rewrite the Darn Bill to pass it. He is not doing that because he is not interested in either piece of legislation being passed and we have to dispel with a technical issue. He is a guy who knows he is not going to get reelected and nothing to do with West Virginia voters because theyre in fair of most of these pieces of legislation but about his power and the flex to ride off into the sunset because he wont be reelected in 2024. Okay. Lets go one deeper on this. It does seem to a lot of people that a couple things are true. Joe manchin is loving this. He seems to live in a world between West Virginia and a frank Capra Movie perhaps of his own making and own imagination. And what about the old standards of Party Cohesion and Party Discipline . We also know this is a Big Time for West Virginia between him and capito. Theyre punching above their weight these days. You know what . Very smart electoral analysts last fall told us the democrats pick up between three and Fiver Senate seats, maybe eight to ten. They dont control the senate. They preside orr the senate. It would give mcconnell the majority if manchin switches parties. Again, the Focus On Manchin and the inconsistencies, all of it might be true but it is a waste over time because other members of the Caucus Refuse to support S 1 in its current draft. Like senator king. So you have to get to the point where you have a bill that could actually pass the democratic caucus before you start looking for the ten republicans. I think that Congressman Clyburn is right. Tell Joe Manchin if you really take this seriously tell us exactly what on substance to change. Get working on it. This is a discussion i believe shower happened months ago. They should have been been behind the scenes urging him with the relationships and works across the aisle to be putting something together to not be in the position when they literally run out of time at a Fiscal Cliff and then primary campaigns begin. Youre in a Campaign Year and all legislating will stop. This is foreseeable that with planning i think they could have avoided making this all about Joe Manchin. Jason, as they say in the u. S. Senate i owe you rebuttal time. While you have a conversation with the internet provider, well do it next time. Im in a time bind. Thank you both very much. A long time host at this network returns to talk about what to make of whats happening to our country exactly, especially after this day in january. Nuary.

I think this is more dangerous moment than World War ii. My fear didnt Donald Trump and the craziness from the mad king in maralago. Im worried about when The General levers the field and theres a group of troops behind him, what lieutenants emerge to continue the lead the troops of people opposed to what we all believe in the democracy. Smart guy matthew dowd. Certainly caught our attention saying it last night. Tonight we Welcome Back a familiar face. Chris matthews, host of Hard Ball for two decades and author over numerous books including the latest this country My Life In Politics and history. Its good to see you. I have to say i loved the stories of bumming around in the old 707 Air Force one will literally today is a Museum Piece and was not when you worked for President Carter and the stories of the political Hero And Mentor Tip Oneill which is where i want to ask you to start. If tip was still alive today, blank. He would stop talking about the Dollar Price on the infrastructure bill. And he would go to the floor of the house. Leave the speakers chair. Go down to the floor in front of the Lectern And List the bridges in the republican Leaders District at home below safety standards. If a School Bus went over the bridge it would be in danger. He would take the fight to the adversary. The democrats dont know how to fight with the gloves off. Up to make the other side squirm and they have not made manchin squirm or anybody in the republicans squirm why you tell them are you for fixing up the stuff at home. Are you for making the bridges, the tunnels, the roads drivable . Can we blame you for everything that goes wrong in terms of infrastructure at home and the dangers . The big difference between a first World Country like ours and a third World Country is a fix our stuff on. We make the systems work. The subways look good. We make it livable. And the republicans are now playing defense. Make them pay for every dangerous bridge and go on the floor right now. Mr. Speaker, madame speaker, do the same thing with the Senate And Schumer to mcconnell why go out to every one of the states in the country, take pictures of the state thats in a crumbling stake and make them defend it and play defense on infrastructure. Thats what i would do. All right. Let me i said earlier, i asked when the democratic party become the party of Fred Rogers . What happened . You are talking jimmy. I remember the sergeant in untouchables. Bring a gun to a Knife Fight. Chicago. Well yeah. I think they have to get to enjoy politics again why when i worked for tip i would pull numbers. Big rallies in the middle of the night against the regan. I enjoyed it. We made noise and made the point that way. We woke up the country about what was going on with the economy. I think you have to do that and the democrats have to have fun doing it. Theres no joy. They just lose. I think if they want an immigration bill, a Police Reform Bill they need all this stuff so they have to play tough. They cant afford to lose the battles because if they do they go into the 2022 election with the republicans with three big nails in the coffin. Big crime, big inflation and bad border patrol. And then you have the republican negative nail in you and the danger of not getting aggressive and explaining what the american people lose under republican obstructionism. Chris, hang with us. Im going to fit in a break. After the break, well talk about this. If Joe Biden wants to get anything done he has to get past a Gop Leader who does bring a gun to a Knife Fight as the old saying goes who just today declared the death of bipartisanship. Who will tell Joe Manchin . Right now, shes not thinking about her work or her schedule. Hi baby. Hey ma, how are you doing . Im doing good, how are you . Good. We are just on our way back from the beach. Shes not thinking about her next appearance or even her book tour. No, shes thinking about something more important. And thankfully so is her automobile.

As we said before the break whos going to tell manchin . Some might argue true bipartisanship was over when senate republicans blocked the creation of the commission to look into January 6. Our guest is chris matthews. Less well ant now is you were a Capitol Police officer. What must it have been like, what must it still be like to view 1 6 through that prism . You know, i want to answer it also what Matt Dowd said in the Opening Ep Graph tonight and the segment talking about where we are headed. At the top at The National Archives theres a slogan. The past is prologue. What are we living through a prologue to . A few months ago the 5th Of November i believe the President Of The United States still said his elected successor would be an illegitimate president. Then of course came the rally that came to the insurrection in the capitol. The capitol that i as a cop would show the bull let holes where the british tried to fight up the stairs. I know you know that place and then we January 6. See the progression . President of the united states declares the successor to be illegitimate and then his mob coming from his rally went to the capitol and defiled it. They defiled that place. It was it was sacred place. They were sacrilegious and then two thirds of the republican party said their leader whos still they should Leader Donald Trump said that the biden president was illegitimate and then this clown of a general, an oath to the Kobs Tuition says we shower a military coup. Follow that progression. Trump did after the election claiming he had won it, to the inrecollection to the poll that republican identified Self Identified Republicans believe this crap. And then we have a general saying since hes an illegitimate Government Overthrow with military power. What is a prologue to . If you follow that progression it is scary as Matt Dowd says it was. Whats next in this terrible trend towards god knows what kind of insurrection to come next because trump legitimized opposition to a government. Does anybody think that mcconnell is a leader . He was a follower of trump. Kevin mccarthy is scared to death that 50 of the republican party that might be up to 80 in some districts on states. Scared to death that trump will lead an Opposition Opponent in the next primary against them and take away the lifestyle on which they set the heart. Theyre pretri if ied to be dumped by the Trump Crowd at home. Mitch has that weird nervous smile. A phony scared guy. He knows trumps the boss and he is going to be the boss as long as he scares his people and dress up with the ties and go to Work And Act like theyre leaders. Same deal. Thune. Look at them. Theyre followers of Donald Trump and he is a demagogue and the great thing about this country is it was never a great career move. Trump is trying to make it into a career and i would like to see the republicans stand up and say this is the end of the trump era. We wont take his orders anymore. You can blame Joe Manchin voting the district, the state. You cant get republican help on the things that this country wants. They want the country fixed up, the voting to be straight, they want the Police Officers to be disciplined. They want a decent Immigration Plan for the country. They want the country to feel like we can do good things like fix the roads and the highways and the bridges, the tunnels. Make the country look like a first World Country. Thats not a democratic partisan left wing idea. To paint some places and fix them up. Thats not left. How did we get to the shape to take the cheap shots at the democrats that nobody believes really . Thats what i think. Chris matthews, has been our guest tonight. Good to see you again. The new book is called this country My Life In Politics and history. Thank you. If your Pipeline Company was hacked and the East Coast running out of gasoline what would you do .
