And i dont like cheetos. Right now theres a new story about josh green. Till tomorrow, we say to you sayanora. Hard ball with Chris Matthews is next. Democrats demand action on guns. Lets play hardball. We were elected to lead, mr. Speaker. We must be highlights and not taillights. We cannot continue to stick our heads in the sand and ignore the reality of mass gun violence in our nation. Good evening. What you just heard was the start of a remarkable scene that continues to unfold at this
hour. Shortly after making those statements earlier today, georgia congressman, john lewis, a veteran of the Civil Rights Movement led his democrats in a sitin. Its still going on as we speak. The goal is to force a vote on gun legislation. Just as democrats sat down, the cameras that feed cspan that provides gavel to gavel coverage were shut off. They dont televise proceedings when the house is not in session. Paul ryans press secretary depending the move. Saying the house cannot operate without members following the rules of the institution so the house has recessed to the call of the chair. Members began to tweet and live stream the unprecedented ska ee. The house was gavelled back into session. That was opened up by no bill,
no break. The proceedings of the house. House republicans are meeting to try to figure out how to respond. Here is what paul ryan said within the last hour. First, i would tell you this is nothing more than a publicity stunt. Thats point number one. Point number two, is this bill was already defeated in the United States senate. Number three, were not doing to take away a citizens due process rights. Were not going to take away a citizens institutional rights. This is not a way to try to bring up legislation. Congressman, thanks for taking a few minutes. Lets start with what the house
speaker just said. He said this is nothing more than a publicity stunt. I believe the speaker is a bit mistaken. That was not voted on by the senate. We are pursuing no fly, no by. Thats something were interested in and that was dp t defeated. Were interested in expanding the background checks. My bill is to close the charleston loophole. Those souls that lost their lives at emmanuel ame church were all murdered by someone who was not qualified to have a gun. He bought that gun because of a loophole that says if the background check is not completed in three days, the
sale can be consummated. Were saying it shouldnt be done. I would say bring my legislation to the floor. Then we dont have my legislation being dealt with. Let me just be clear on this. Is that your demands specifically, congressman jim cly burns demand or is that the demand correctively that the democrats who are sitting in right now are making to vote on the bill you just outlined in this sitthis ends or is there any other legislation. What is the specific demand. There are four different bills. No fly, tho by is one of them. Im one of the cosponsors of that bill. Thats a bipartisan bill. Mr. King is on that bill. Mr. Thompson. Im on that bill. We also want to vote on expanded background checks because we believe if we had expanded background checks, the murder in orlando would have shown up on the list and may not have been able to purchase his gun. Thats on the list. Also, my bill to close that charleston loophole, ive been talking about that since the week after those poor souls lost their lives. Yes, im concerned about that. Youve not had an effective background check. Thats what were talking about. Has there been any communication between yourself, paul ryan or democratic leadership and paul ryan. Are you aware of any direction communication . A week ago mr. Ryan shouted me down on the floor when i was trying to seek recognition to parliamentary inquiry to find out when he would allow my bill to come to the floor. I was shouted down. That was pretty direct to me. Im specifically, tonight. Since this sitin began, no direct communication between
democratic leaders and paul ryan . If so, ive not been a part of it. I am prepared just as i was with john lewis back in 1960, im prepared to stay on this floor all night and tomorrow if necessary. I did it for three days one time before. I believe my body can take two days. All right. Thanks for the time. Thank you so much for having me. Were joined by congressman jim hines from connecticut. Youre on the same page, are you, as congressman clyburn. You are here demanding with this sitin, votes on three pieces of legislation on background check, on this socalled no fly, no buy
and the charleston loophole. You want three votes . Thats where all of us are. What those three things share is dramatic public support. What youre seeing happening here led by john lewis, icon of the Civil Rights Movement, beaten almost to death on the Edmond Pettis bridge is being called a publicity stunt by the speaker. What youre seeing is us standing up and saying the house of representatives exist for one purpose and that is to work the will of the people. Here you have a package of things thats supported by a majority of republicans and democrats and gun owners. What were saying to the speaker is let the house do what it was designed by mr. Madison and mr. Jefferson and mr. Adams to do, which is to reflect the will of the American People. He says no. Is this the way, he mentioned this, we played paul ryan
reaction. He said this is no way to bring legislation up. To occupy the house floor and say the house cant do any other business. We wont move unless you do x. Youre trying to hold up the speaker here. In the ordinary course of business i would agree with the speaker. This is not a Business Model that works every single day. Theres some unique characteristics about what were fighting for here. Number someone the dramatic public support that these measures that were asking for enjoy. At bottom, its 80 of the american public. Thats point one. This is not a 50 50. This is not an Affordable Care act where people dont get it. This is the will of the people. Point two, this is not something thats really an abstraction. 50 dead people in orlando, several more shootings, including in my constituency in stanford, connecticut. Several more shootings since orlando. Americans are being cut down and bleeding in the street for ever minute of inaction that the house of representatives refuses to do something that the people want to do. I would say, we couldnt operate if every time we wanted to move something we staged a sitin. People are dying and these are measures supported by the American People. I want to press you this. Youre citing polls saying this is the will of the people. You can get into the details here, the republicans and the senate say they dont want terrorists buying guns either. They have a different way to bring that about. If youre talking about the will of the people, the people are the runs who elected this house that the Republican Party leads right now. Republicans who say they dont want this legislation. If the people didnt want republicans blocking this, why p did they put them in charge of the house . Elections happen every two years. We dont have the opportunity to speak about these issues. To examine arguments like the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. An absurdity. There was a good guy with a gun in orlando. We think its important that we have this conversation and air this for the reason youre talking about here. Constituents of all 435 of us deserve to know when were acting in their interest and when we refuse to. This is an example o where any Congressional District you look at, these measures will enjoy majority support. Its important that people know the House Majority has decided that even though that support is widespread, this conversation will not happen. All right. Congressman, thanks for joining us. Hillary clinton tweeting in solidarity with the members participating in this sitin. She wrote House Republicans may have cut the cameras but they cant cut off our voices. We have the act on gun violence. Signed by clinton with the initial h. That means she personally wrote that tweet. Trying to get there what paul ryan said. He talked specifically about this no fly, no buy provision. He said denies due process. Hoo hes saying if the proposal is to take people on this no fly list, they ended up on that list without due process. With all do respect to my friend and speaker, thats
hogwash. If this was about due process, we could sit down and get a bill to the floor. The speaker knows hes refused in regular order as he likes to point to, to bring a bill to the floor that the overwhelming majority of American People, republican, democrats, independents support. Hes forced us to take action on behalf of the American People and say we will hold up the business of the house until the speaker does the will of the people. What polls well is this idea of should terrorist, should those on the terror watch list be able the buy guns and people general lly say no to that. There was a democratic bill, a republican bill. The republican bill from john corning said nobody on that list can buy a gun if the government can prove in a court of law that they belong on that list. Would you be okay with that
being voted on in the house . Look, were not even discussing that. What i want to be very clear about is this were a point of negotiation, we could sit down leadership to leadership. This is not about due process. This is about the process of National Rifle association and the refusal of House Democrats and Senate Republicans and House Republicans with their willingness to do the low hanging fruit that the American People are calling for. Lets not get distracted by the idea of due process. Im a civil libertarian. I believe in due process. We can figure that out. Surely, terrorists on the watch list should not be able to go in and buy a gun. Domestic abusers shouldnt be able to evade the background check by getting a gun at a gun show that they couldnt get in walmart. This is absurd. Its low hanging fruit and its time for republicans to get to
the business before we continue to lose american lives. 89 of them every single day. Let me ask you about the precedent. Paul ryan saying this is no way to stage a sit in to force the agenda. Say democrats ran the house. Say its a year from now and democrats ran the house and republicans sitin and say were not going to let anything else happen in here until and less obama care is repealed. Would that be okay . You know what, heres the truth. Were in a different place where the American People are concerned about gun violence and guns getting into the hands of terrorists and felons and domestic abusers. Thats what were talking about here today. We have tried over and over again to have the speaker and democrats and republicans handle this and they have not. Now, we are going to handle it by occupying the floor until we can get a guarantee from speaker ryan that we can put these bills
on the floor and vote for them. Let them cast the vote against it so they can be accountable to their constituents. Across this country, people are telling us, dont give up this fight on behalf of the American People. All right. Congresswoman from maryland, thanks for the time. Appreciate it. Coming up, donald trump throws the kitchen sink at Hillary Clinton. He calls her corrupt and a word class liar. His words there. Trumps attacks and clintons response.

Only with xfinity. Welcome back. A day after Hillary Clinton unloaded on donald trump calling him unfit to handle the economy, trump returned the favor with a speech delivered with the help of a teleprompter. The presumptive nominee called out clinton on her time at the state department and her temperament. He has dominant theme, shes corrupt. Shes a world class liar. Hillary clinton has perfected the politics of personal profit and even theft. She ran the state Department Like her own personal hedge fund. Hillary clinton gave china millions of jobs and our best jobs. Let china completely rebuild
itself. In return, Hillary Clinton got rich. She gets rich making you poor. Hillary clintons try out for the presidency has produced one deadly Foreign Policy disaster after another. Shes virtually done nothing right. Shes done nothing good. Hillary clinton may be the most corrupt person, ever, to seek the presidency of the United States. This afternoon, clinton responded. Hes going afterme person me personally because he has no answers on the substance. Thats why hes attacking my faith. Sigh. And of course attacking a
philanthropic foundation that saves and improves lives around the world. Its no surprise he doesnt understand these things. The Clinton Foundation helps poor people around the world get access to life saving aids medicine. Donald trump uses poor people to produce his line of suits and ties. The idea this is a new donald trump, a little more scripted and packaged, more formal speech today. Some very intentional there. Trump 2. 0. They aring loe looking at this f
wearily that he was able to stay on message. This is deja vu. We have been here before. Trump has said something thats gotten him in hot water with fellow members of his own party. Given he has a new Campaign Infrastructure in place, will he be able to sustain this through unscripted rallies. That will be the key. There does seem to be an acknowledgement that trump does understand its time to do some things different in his campaign as he acknowledges. Its trump 2. 0, 6. 0 at this point. 9. 10. Critics pointing to a number of factual issues with trumps speech. Here is trump contrasting his views on iraq with clinton. It all started with her bad
judgment in supporting the war in iraq in the first place. I was not in government service, i was among the earliest to criticize the rush to war and, yes, even before the war ever started. The problem with that is there evidence trump criticized the war to invasion. We didnt findfully examples of trump denouncing the war until a year after the war began. Trump alleged clinton would let in refugees without any screening. No way to screen who they are, what they are, what they believe, where they come from. According to politifact thats not true. Theres a screening process in place. It includes numerous rounds of security checks. Theres that critique of the speech. The only thing i noticed him doing here, we played a clip of it. It felt like he was very intentionally taking criticisms that have been levelled at him and just, when he says, she gets rich making you poor, thats what she said about him yesterday. Thats exactly right. There was a lot of projection going on here. I think you cant minimize those types of takes when trumps makes them on Hillary Clinton. What the democrats fear most is Donald Trumps abilities to stand next to her on stage and say, this is how politics has always been done. This is business as usual. If youre happy with the direction of the country, vote for her. Ill change things. Ill shake things up. That was the core message of this speech. Getting to the misstatements, thats a whole other issue. The clinton campaign, along with the numerous news organizations that were Fact Checking this in realtime, that shows you what kind of problem donald trump will be facing in the coming months the way his statements are being put under a microscope of scrutiny. Were getting a preview of what a debate would look like. We saw Hillary Clinton go yesterday. Donald trump go today. We wont see the two of them on stage until the fall and hold up she reacts. What her reaction is. I dont think she or any politician has been p in that position. The split screen comparison for her, if he stays on the prompter will be a lot harder for her to make the kinds of arguments shes been making about him being reckless and erratic and temperamentally ill
suited. He said shes unsuited to be the president. His problem and this is more than just a problem of perception, his nomination is at stake, steve. There are republican delegates, there are senior members of the rnc who are ready to throw him under the bus at the convention if he does not clean up his act. He knows that. You can see it in the way he delivered the speech today. Hes sticking to script. You can tell by his demeanor. He knows if he doesnt shape up, this all could come crashing down. I know the standard were measuring up against isnt much at this point, but it does seem he has a message hes received. We will see if that sticks. Coming up, as Hillary Clinton does battle with donald trump, a short list emerges. Clintons potential running mates. Thats next. This is hard ball, the place for
politics. Hats why i dug this out for you. Its your grandpappys hammer and he would have wanted you to have it. It meant a lot to him. Yes, ge makes powerful machines. But ill be writing the code that will allow those machines to share information with each other. Ill be changing the way the world works. interrupting you cant pick it up, can you . Go ahead.

Hillary clinton was on capitol hill trying to rally members of the House Democratic caucus. This was her first visit since becoming the Presumptive Democratic nominee. It comes as she begins her search for a Vice President able running mate. Shes vetting three potential candidates, julian castro, tim kaine and elizabeth warren. Warren will be campaigning with clinton on monday. They found warren overwhelmingly for the number two spot. Clinton is narrowing a larger list of a dozen other
perspective candidates. He chaired that meeting that clinton held with House Democrats. Im joined by congressman. Let me start with you. Hillary clinton made it to capitol hill today. Met with democrats. What was her message to House Democrats . What was their message to her . Steve, thanks for having me. Id say that im not sure if she energized us or we energized her. It was a spirited conversation. We walked out of there feeling good about the work she will do and make sure come noef, we not only elect her president but also have a congress that will work with her and try to get things done. It was a good meeting. She talked about her agenda and how she was heeding to North Carolina to talk to folks there. Its clear contrast between she and donald trump. Were looking forward to that. We talk about the issue of the veepstakes starting to come
up. You see those names we put out there. Whats your sense of what Hillary Clinton is looking for in this pick . Shes got several things that are her main priority. Shes got several other things that are very top of mind second only to that. One is personal chemistry and comfort with the person. The other is the Proven Ability to rally democrats, work across the aisle, work with congress, have some demonstrated legislative ability and also to rally the base, raise money. Do a lot of Party Building that she wants a Vice President to do. Your name, it comes up frequently when you have these conversations about veepstakes. The top criteria not sprieurpri, somebody who could be president in a heartbeat. Elizabeth warren said, yes, i could. Could you be president in heartbeat . Id be honored to continue to serve my country in whatever way possible. I believe someone like me, the son of immigrants who was the first to get a college education, for me, the skys the limit. The glass is half full. Well see where things go. I feel really good about what were doing here in congress. Im going to do as much as i can for my country because my country has done so much for me. When you look at the matchup Hillary Clinton versus donald trump, the sort of voters hes tapped into and the type of voters, politically speaking, what does Hillary Clinton need to be looking for in a running mate . The great thing about Hillary Clinton is shes so established. Shes probably the best tested
candidate ive seen in my lifetime running for president. Shes been in hot spots throughout the world. Shes taken on the toughest tests here in congress. Shes as accomplished as you would need. It will be easy to find someone who can complement her. That means well have great choices. On the democratic side we feel good about the team we will move forward with come november. Thats why we have such optimism that come november, its not just the white house that were going to put hillary in, but were going to put a will the of people who want to get things done in congress in the senate and the house. All right. I think thats what they call a diplomatic answer. Thanks for the time. Appreciate that. Up next, hes back after vowing not to run for his senate seat again. Marco rubio changes course. Hes getting in the race after all. Well hear what one of his potential democratic opponents have to say about that after the break. Youre watching hardball, the place for politics.

Florida senator marco rubio said repeatedly that win or lose in his race for president in 2016, one thing he was sure of is he would not run for reelection to the u. S. Senate. He tweeted just a few weeks ago, he said ive only said like 10,000 times i will be a private citizen in january. Today, rubio changed his mind. He said in statement that quote, in politics, admitting youve changed your mind is not something most people like to do. He said that quote, control of the senate may very welcome down to the race in florida. With that, marco rubio went back on his promise not to run for reelection and said he is in the race for senate from florida in 2016 running for a second
term. Lets take you through numbers what rubio is up against. Theres a good news, bad situation for marco rubio as he tries to win another term. Heres the good news. Theres two democrats who are duking it out for their partys nomination for the chance to run against rubio. This is brand new poll out of florida. Rubio is up eight points over alan grayson. Hes one of the democrats running. Seven points against patrick murphy. Thats the other democrat running in that primary. Against either of his likely democrat opponents, rubio starts out ahead. What is the bad news . Its this. This is the race thats going to be at the top of the ticket in florida, obviously every other state in the country, the president ial race. Hillary clinton in florida, brand new poll up eight points in florida over donald trump. Remember, barack obama did win florida in 2012 but it was razor thin. Youre talk less than one point. Hillary clinton right now, a
solid eightpoint lead over donald trump. That raises the question, if Hillary Clinton wins florida and wins it big, how realistic that the same voters voting for the democrat for president will turn around in the senate race and vote for the republican, vote for rubio. Here is what rubio is up against. This is whats happening. Its the trend of what they call split ticket voting. Thats what rubio will be relying on. People voting for one party for president. The other partys candidate for u. S. Senate. That used to be common. In 1988, a generation ago, more than half the states that had president ial and Senate Elections that year Different Party won each of them. Split ticket voting. Go to the year 2000, the number was down to 30 . Fast forward to the last president ial election. In 2012, split ticket results where one party won the city race. The other party won the president ial race. Just 18 in 2012. This is one of trends in american politics. People are showing up and voting
democrat straight down the line or theyre voting republican straight down the line. They are not splitting their tickets the way they used to. That could be a problem for marco rubio if donald trump, the republican candidate, is running far behind Hillary Clinton. Were joined by one of rubios potential democratic opponents, congressman patrick murphy. Thanks for taking a few minutes. Thank you. Let me get your reaction, marco rubio said he wasnt running. Today he said ive changed my mind. Im in. Whats your reaction . This is what voters hate about washington, d. C. And politicians like marco rubio. Hes clearly putting his sel selfishness in front of the people. Hes said time after time, he hates it. Why would they want him again. Hes flipflopped on key issues like immigration reform. Hes missed a historic amount of votes. Hes missed more votes than any
senator in florida in nearly 50 years. If thats not bad enough, he uses this tragedy in orlando to decide he wants to be a senator again. He should be more focused with trying to take care of the Lgbt Community and trying to close the loophole. Just yesterday and today he have asked are you going to commit to serving a sixyear term if elected. He wouldnt answer the question. Hes already planning this 2020 president ial bid. What does that say to you when its been known that marco rubio has missed fair number of senate votes. Obviously well known hes said he wuasnt going to run for reelection. More voters in florida say they would vote for him than you. What does that say . There are two polls that showed us beating marco rubio. We already had a poll and its called an election. Marco rubio lost by 20 points to donald trump. His own party rejected him much less the independents and the democrats that are not going to support him. Its pretty clear theres a sharp contrast. I have to introduce myself to the state. I look forward to introducing myself making sure everyone knows im a Small Business guy. Im a cpa. I want to solve problems. I like showing up to work, showing up to committee compared to marco rubio who hates the job and using this as a platform to run for a higher office. Floridans dont want that, no american wants that. An pro toemployee told me for a and a half they hated their job and would look for a new job, they dont get the new job and come back to me and say, patrick, i didnt get that job. Can i really have it back . Of course not. No one will give them that job back. Flori floridans will see through that. Thanks for the time. Thank you. Marco rubio also said in statement that quote, no matter who is elected president , there is reason for worry. Even the prospect of a Trump Presidency is worried to him, to rubio. How does he plan to run for reelection in a swing state where he has such little faith in his own Party Standard there . If the polls are a precursor to november, if Hillary Clinton wins solidly, could marco rubio still win the Senate Election . Of course he can. Its florida. Its a competitive state. Its always been a competitive state. This falls election will be a competitive race. As every viewer saw, congressman murphy is very afraid of senator
rub rubio. He enters this race with a big advantage. Floridans know him. They know hes done great job fight for the issues. Fighting for human rights around the world. Hes led on these issue. Hes delivered for florida. He enters the race in a strong position. Thats why congressman murphy went on the rant and ignores the fact he missed his own votes and spends his time attacking marco because he cant run on his on ineffective record as a congressman. The idea that he didnt really want the job anymore. He was missing votes. He was missing more votes than some of the other senators running for president and talking about the job like it was not a place where you went to get things done. He said that about the senate at one point. What about that perception that will be out there . A couple of things. He missed votes because he was running for president. I dont think Bernie Sanders has cast a vote for months. Voters understand you will miss some votes. Marco said he was going to leave the senate and spend more time with his family. Hes foregoing all that because theres so much at stake in this election. I dont think anybody wants to give her a blank slate. He will stand up to Hillary Clinton and he will stand up to donald trump when he disagrees with donald trump. Those disagreements are very well known. More so by florida voters than anybody else. When he disagrees with trump, he will stand up to him. Hes proven that time and time again. All right. Thanks for the time. Thank, steve. Hardball is back after this.

Reporter i spoke sto a high ranking democratic official who said they plan to stay here all night but whats interesting is within the next few hours the Republican Leadership intends to move forward on the house floor. That means the lights are going to go up and the cameras go on and the democrats insist they will continue to protest in the well of the house chamber. In theory we could see republicans stepping over democrats to cast their votes
and expect a pretty chaotic situation. Republicans feel they that they believe the house should be Going Forward with the business of the people, they dont want it to be delayed any longer. Theyre going to try to enforce the democrats hands. The democrats say we are not moving until we get our gun votes. The republicans say if you want your gun votes you have go through the regular rules of the house. Expect the standoff to come to a head in the next few hours. What a scene shaping up there.

The trump position as a candidate looking ahead to the general election is he in stronger position now than he was at the start of the week or does all this stuff not matter. Hes stronger but he was so far down thats not saying much. He did need to make this speech. He needed to make it six weeks ago and he made it today. He stayed on script and used the teleprompter. He got in attacks on Hillary Clinton, thats what this campaign is about on both sides. He let this be too much about him and he has to define her negatively and he did that today. Is this a natural fit, trump from the teleprompter. No, this is not how he became a reality tv star but he did lay out arguments that youre going
to hear later on about immigration and about the trade agreements, Hillary Clinton benefitting herself and his phrase on im with you compared to im with her which is a strong contrast. That was a pretty savvy. That was effective but the substance of the speech was very classic trump. The way he delivered it was not and the question will be can he be that focussed Going Forward. I say that was savvy because i have not seen that many moves from the campaign that are more conventionally crafty like that. This was a way for him to say i can be president ial. Im not going to just be that guy out there having people chant and beat up protesters so this was a chance for him to prove that but i think the question is can he stick with us because hes the kind of guy who we you push him a little he responds and as we saw with Hillary Clinton today shes willing to push him. Her line about chapter 11. She said chapter 11 today and yesterday. She has her hooks on that and shes going to keep going for it. Its easy to get him off message. That concludes the lightening round. Im sorry. I wish we had more time. A lot of news breaking from capitol hill. Thanks for joining us. Please come back. Well be back after this.
