tragic events that happened on speaker nancy pelosi's watch. it's clear at this point nancy pelosi has cherry picked the members to serve on this committee. she has prewritten a narrative only numbers who will stick to her talking points are allowed to serve on this committee. if this is truly a fact-finding mission to make sure january 6th never happens again, this isn't what that looks like. today i want to repeat a call that i made last week to the chairman of this committee to bring before this committee today on this panel the head of the capitol police union who told many of us last week and has said publicly and privately that on january 6th the rank-and-file members of the capitol police department, the heroes that make up the many women, the heroes that make up the capitol police department, they were not prepared for what happened on january 6th in spite of intelligence reports that date back three weeks before that date, they weren't equipped on january 6th with the proper equipment that they needed to handle what happened that day a

in the house, nancy pelosi can only use -- lose three democrats on any given vote. josh gottheimer has now -- they were known as the moderate nine. they had nine moderates sticking together and saying my way or the highway or we are going to take down joe biden's agenda. now they have 10. stephanie murphy, one of the other leaders of the moderates. she is one of the cochairs of the blue dog democrats. she also has joined the group so now they have 10, so they have incredible leverage. they flexed their muscle last night and showed they mean business. it sounds like the two sides are inching closer to a deal. there's going to be another meeting at 9:00 a.m. this morning. they will have a separate briefing on the other big crisis, which is afghanistan. they will hear from officials including secretary of state tony blinken. nancy pelosi saying she hopes to have some kind of deal with gottheimer by noon, when she plans to bring this rule, this procedural vote, to the floor. she is hoping they have something in hand with timer -- in hand to move this forward. host: what

pelosi knew that was going to happen. >> norman, nancy pelosi isn't even granting the point that there was a deal, she simply saying, no, we just clarified exactly when the vote would be in september and i mean, we're laughing just because, in the past we've all seen these kinds of ultimatums derail legislation. they become sometimes delayed for months at a time. we developed this confidence that, well if this problem is thrown in front of nancy pelosi, it will disappear. >> you know, let's give props to john, who have said so many times on the show that you should never underestimate nancy pelosi. and i will tell you, lawrence, i've been around the house for more than 50 years, i've known every leader from john mccormack and jerry forward on. i've seen weak leaders and strong leaders, corrupt leaders, leaders who were followers, i have never seen a leader as masterful and adept as politics as nancy pelosi. and just keep in mind as we get through all of this, there is some pressure on chuck schumer now, with timing to get 50 democrats on board in the senate. but with no leeway in the s

it is criminal what nancy pelosi is doing. it is criminal for her to calls back to do what she is asking us to do which is to spend more of your money. i am thankful for all of my colleagues at the freedom caucus. we have just begun to fight. and i do not care whether it is not printed in the press, whether the majority of people are not seeing anything, we are going to stand up because our country is too important. where do you go if it is not america? venezuela? cuba? china? see how that works out. thank you all for coming today and appreciate everyone coming. louie gohmert. >> thank you. if it were not for what was going on, real travesty going on in afghanistan. the travesty going on in our southern border. all of the crises this administration has created themselves, then it's hard to believe that anyone would have the nerve to say let's come to washington and spend trillions of dollars we don't have on pet projects that will move us to being a marxist nation. ayn rand decades ago put it right. the course that they are wa

it is a fact that on that in december of 2020 nancy pelosi was made aware of potential security threats to the capital, and she failed to act. it is a fact that the u.s. capitol police raised concerns and rather than providing them with the support and resources they needed and they deserve, she prioritized her partisan political optics over their safety. the american people deserve to know the truth, that nancy pelosi bears responsibility as speaker of the house for the tragedy that occurred on january 6th. and it was only after republicans started asking these

nancy pelosi says that anyone without a mask on in the capitol will be arrested. your thoughts on -- on the bigger picture here and how this is affecting people's freedom and liberty? doctor: well, that's the very important. you know, when we have people using this as an excuse, and that's what it is because, again, the vaccinations are very effective and a lot of people have already gotten immunity. so and very few people are dying. it really is a -- a matter of how you present it, you know, if you had two people who died and now you have four people who died and you say, you know, there's been 100% increase. this thing is just raging or you could actually give the statistics which would show that we really are much better off than we were a year ago. but you can use that to frighten people and to control people and that's what we got to be careful about. yes, we have made tremendous progress. there's no question about it and kudos go to our scientific community for coming up with effective vaccines, but we also have to give people the real information and let th

and nancy pelosi is not even speaking to these moderates. man, this is getting ugly on capitol hill. and i just -- you know, i thought, this is a real thing, you know, some work is going to have to happen here. but by the standards of tough acts that nancy pelosi has had to deal with in her career, this was not the highest degree of difficulty. i think in aggregate, and you and i have talked about this before, in aggregate is whole thing they're trying to do is about as hard as anything i've seen congress try to pull off. but overcoming those ten moderates who, you know, it turned out, as you pointed out in your opening were kind of folded -- i mean, they feel like they got a victory by getting a date certain on the vote but they sold out pretty quick and pretty cheap and i think nancy pelosi knew that was going to happen. >> and, norman, she isn't even granting the point that there was a deal. she is simply saying, no, we just clarified when the vote would be in september. and, i mean, we're laughing because just in the past we have all see

listen to nancy pelosi on this. watch this. >> so here's the thing, we cannot require someone to be vaccinated. that is just not what we can do. it's a matter of privacy to know who is or isn't. i can't go to the capitol physician give me names of people not vaccinated or encourage them or make it known to others to encourage them to be vaccinated. so we can do that but you would hope science would guide them to protect themselves, their family members and the good colleagues in the work place to get vaccinated. elizabeth: so that's nancy pelosi saying you can't require people to be vaccinated but just listen to the science and how vaccines help. let's jump to this, listen to dr. anthony fauci. he is saying no to lockdowns. he says misinformation on social media would have stopped vaccinations to wipe out smallpox. let's listen to dr. fauci here. watch this. >> john, i don't think we're going to see lockdowns. i think we have enough of the percentage in the people in the country, not enough to crush the outbreak but

look at lawmakers like nancy pelosi. she is now worth, nearly $100 million more than she was about 15 years ago. how did that happen? well she has got lots of investments in all these big tech companies for instance, which she constantly and her colleagues among the democrat party, they claim they want to regulate these companies, they want to break them apart, tear them down, that is all lip service. do you think nancy pelosi will behead her golden goose? no way. google, facebook, twitter, apple. she is constantly trading, making money off the companies. she has cushy relationship with them. somehow they end up with gigantic government contracts. it's a self licking ice cream cone that keeps going. tools like this how lawmakers take advantage what is supposed to be public service. elizabeth: nancy pelosi saying she is within the letter of the law. she is disclosing it. she is doing it in accordance with the stock act how they're making trades but we're talking tens of millions of dollars in tech company trades. in her b

pelosi, the stronger our tactics weren't justified to begin with was what nancy pelosi was doing she can lose no more than three democrats on partyline votes or this whole thing falls apart now you have joe manchin saying i'm not going to guarantee the three and half trillion dollar budget reconciliation bill that that will pass and alexander out across your cortez says we will block infrastructure it seems like the tactics were not the way to go when you don't have the mandate in the margin of control, three votes and it's done and over. >> you are absolutely right, three or four democrats together and they can stop the whole thing, the promise of joe biden kamala harris, they were going to bring together the country and the congress but they haven't been able to do that, they don't even pretend to do that in the house ofit representatives with inviting republicans to come in and offer it at some of their concern. give credit to donald trump and what was going on before, he actually passed a lot of bills that had bipartisan support moving forward. it's touch and go. elizabeth: even

elizabeth: nancy pelosi interfamily nancy pelosi same shoes within the letter of the law disclosing that she's doing dit and courting to the stock t and how they're making the trade but were talking tens of millions of dollars in tech company trade in her backyard of her district were talking google, apple, facebook, google donated to nancy pelosi it seems people are going to say what is really going on we can talk about being within the letter of the law but were talking about conversations or phone calls with apple ceo tim cook that nancy pelosi had, there is information, insider information that you can profit from d a d.. how can you nail that down that there's any malfeasance or. >> is on display it's in the letter of the law but by every sense of any normal person's perception just a casual corruption of washington, d.c. how is it the people elect to become members of congress they go in with middle-class salaries and they become some of the richest people in the united states, nancy pelosi is a six richest member of congress, how did that happen it's really no wonder you watch a r

it says -- you know, he has this frustration with nancy pelosi, and nancy pelosi is an incredibly powerful woman. she will go down in the history books as one of the most powerful speakers of the house, one of the most deft leaders of congress. kevin mccarthy if he's lucky will be a footnote. i think this is what happens when you have a woman who reaches the level that nancy pelosi does. this kind of resentment that you get from kevin mccarthy that comes out as a joke about being violent against a woman who is too powerful. >> that's interesting. i think that's -- i mean, nancy pelosi in many regards has from time to time and many times kind of run circles around kevin mccarthy. >> most republican members of congress would kill to have nancy pelosi as their leader. kevin mccarthy isn't even really that powerful, even though he holds the position that he holds. there are other members of congress obviously, marjorie taylor greene, he can't control marjorie taylor greene, he can't control jim jordan. there are other people who seem to have more power in his own caucus. you don't see that kin

the roughly the number of houses nancy pelosi owns as the moratorium expire to congress left for vacation. and why shouldn't they? they weren't there off the day, they made sure the minimum wage wasn't increased. they fought hard against universal healthcare and they allow the bombing of somalia in theory and again of this without the slightest peep, with the possible exception of senator grassley brake and wind, but hard to call that a vibrant protest. but congresswoman corey bush led in the occupation all the steps of congress to get the moratorium renewed. ultimately they did win a partial extension of the moratorium for the next 60 days, which is not nearly enough, but better than nothing. oh, and after the congress people left, some protesters stayed to fight for housing for all, all of the time. and they were probably moved away from the capital steps shoed, shoed off the steps. apparently, only congress endorsed protest is allowed at the capital. does all this mean i trust, some of the st rats who made cameos that this protest like chuck schumer or the people who congratulated core

nancy pelosi, the speaker of the house, acted like she just couldn't do anything about it. she just couldn't. what can i do? but at least she doesn't have any conflicts of interest. like connections to real estate. landlords. right. back in 2011, the washington post wrote nancy pelosi and her husband, paula san francisco, real estate magnate and financial investor, or worth $42000000.00. withholding spread across property investments in northern california. since that time, open secrets reports, nancy pelosi has seen her wealth, increased to nearly a $115000000.00 from $41000000.00 in 2004. what about the bite administration? do they have any conflicts of interests? well, to tell that story, let me back up a little as the atlanta detailed between 20112017, some of the world's largest private equity groups and hedge funds, as well as other large investors spent a combined to $36000000000.00 on more than $200000.00 homes and ailing markets across the country. in one atlanta zip code alone, they bought almost 90 percent of the 7500 home sold. black rock owns about $60000000000

guest: some have made the same argument that nancy pelosi is holding that bill hostage. the other wing of the democratic party says if they pass the of structure bills, then the moderates would not have a stake in the outcome of the larger budget bill. i think one thing that is important to note is that many of the centrists do expected support the budget bill ultimately. for instance, the congressman of new jersey, one of the leaders of the group, has said he wants to support that. he wants to see tax changes that could affect new jersey. ultimately, this is more about the strategy, not necessarily that the centrists want to block the budget from passing, although i think we expected couple of them to probably ultimately block it. host: holding hostage is the term they used in the washington post today chimeric and solution can wait, let's pass infrastructure now, saying we are opposed to holding the president's legislation hostage, risking the passage and the bipartisan support behind it. we will hear from teresa now in tennessee, good morning. caller: hi, good morning

nancy pelosi is third in line for the presidency. joe biden, kamala harris, nancy pelosi. why isn't she in washington right now? after 13 service member heroes gave their lives for joe biden's botched-up man to cut and run out of afghanistan. -- plan to cut and run out of afghanistan. pelosi apparently refusing gop leader kevin mccarthy's demands to bring the house back in to review what went wrong in afghanistan. the congressman joins me this morning from where he is in washington d.c. congressman, it's good to see you. thanks very much for coming back this morning because of this breaking news. we spoke over the weekend, and i know that you've been working the phones trying to get americans out of afghanistan. if i'm going to get to nancy pelosi in a minute. tell us about your efforts to get people out. >> maria, there are hundreds and could be thousands of americans that are going to get left behind in afghanistan. as michael waltz just saw you and brian mast, many of the members have been working, such as myself, trying to get americans that we know that are our consti

paul: but i want to ask about this of this because you watch nancy pelosi for a long time and i have an seems to me that she is going to basically say the swing straight democrats, are majorities in jeopardy right but it is even more jeopardy if we do not pass these things pretty see you might as well sign up for this and take the risk by keeping your own party united and will take our chances in november of 2022 by the way, then you have a legacy. and that i thank you so with the argument they're going to use and i would not downplay her chances of getting through. guest: person something to that, you're right, she's a powerful persuasive personality rated no fans or butts about it, the theme underneath that is you are at risk and you're likely to lose your seat the least have a legacy passing a bunch of stuff that aoc bernie sanders liked the question is, are there eccentric democrats like those in virginia new jersey and elsewhere are going to say yeah you know what, as i assign my own death what i want to do something that's going to be cathartic to my party not certain that new

pelosi in your time of need. with that, let's take questions. >> explain what you would expect from a briefing. i know it's hard to brief members on sensitive matters when congress is not in session but when you talk about bringing congress back to have a briefing , many members were disappointed , what would that achieve? what would you want congress to do? is there some piece of legislation to lay out? what is concrete in terms of bringing congress back. >> you have five days before the president lets the taliban dictate that we leave americans in afghanistan. five days counting today. what can we do? we have watched the last briefings we had come of first briefing we had over the phone where they cut people off after a few questions. they did it twice. for the first one, we have the state department do it again leading members in the queue and not being able to get the questions out. member after member has constituents and friend sitting in afghanistan trying to get out. we had an in person one where we were

>> i want you to watch nancy pelosi hand me that gavel. [ applause ] it will be hard not for me not to hit her with it. >> kevin mccarthy's spokesperson was joking but if democrats can't pass voting rights legislation this could be their future, and florida is seeing a record number of new covid cases so why is governor ron desantis blocking mask mandates? ♪♪ >>> good evening and i'm mehdi hassan. any moment now the senate expects the final text of the bipartisan infrastructure bill to arrive. once it arrives the senate will finally have something specific to consider, and we could see a vote on the final bill later this week, but there is still a long way to go. there's no guarantee this bill will pass muster with house progressives. coming up i'll be speaking to two progressive congresswoman who could hold the key to its future, but democrats won't be able to pass legislation like this beyond 2022 without free and fair elections. you can't say you weren't warned. a few weeks ago we led this show by pointing out how election subversion, even more so than the attack on our voting r

if so, nancy pelosi might have 218 votes. but it might be 30 of those are republicans and that obviously might a the progressives who have said, look, this is our shot. we now control everything. as aoc said if we can't get progressive measures done now, this might be the last opportunity. so i think what you'll see from schumer, as amanda referred to, he'll try to get it every which way he can to indicate he's going to work his best strategies on reconciliation. hopefully bring some of those house democrat progressives along simply on the promise. but i don't know that the votes are there between the two chambers on reconciliation. we'll see. >> so, david, then with that in minding, how hard is the biden administration, specifically the president, going to be working the next week especially on those phones to make sure that his original infrastructure bill gets through with or without reconciliation following? >> look, joe biden wants this done and he should. donald trump said for four years he was going to pass an infrastr

capitol where nancy pelosi and other democrats are talking about the passage of that voting rights bill. as she tried to enter that door to the alabama university, george wallace stood there, defiant. defiant of the constitution and we hold these truths to be self-evident. it's a wonderful day. and john lewis is saying to himself up there, and saying to all of us, you kept your eye on the prize. i'm honored to be here with my friend, terri sewell. i feel like john lewis is sitting up there pretty close to the right hand, i believe, saying well done, nancy pelosi. john lewis walked across the edmund pettus bridge many times, on half of those occasions i held his hand as we walked across the bridge and i felt the moral power of john lewis. our country was blessed with a man of his integrity, his character and his inspiration. this bill, the john lewis bill, h.r. for the people. now chairman nadler, let me yield to you. [applause] mr. nadler: since i became chairman of the judiciary committee, there's no issue we have spent more time examining than the onslaught of voter suppression measur

that's not a problem for nancy pelosi as you can see. >> young people and how we are reaching out to young people. we always ask them how do you want to be reached out to? >> tucker: it's repulsive, but revealing. it's pretty clear at this point that nancy pelosi, our chief covid enforcer doesn't believe a word she says about the virus. now, she is 81 years old and deep in the risk range for coronavirus. standing at a crowded event in napa which according to the biden administration's color-coded map of the country is one of the riskiest places in america for coronavirus transmission. and yet pelosi is not social distancing were wearing a face shield, she doesn't even have a mask on. why is that? clearly, she understands she is not in danger. and since there are republicans present, she has no reason to pretend otherwise. as a reminder, here's what nancy pelosi sounds like when she is back in washington. >> members and staff will be required to wear masks at all times. >> this is a mask from all over the country. >> real men wear masks and they are essentially important. >> the failu

you have a mob looking for nancy pelosi, where's nancy? where's nancy? we see that in court documents. that was one of the rooms they targeted. they went into computer and stole that. members of her staff were hidden behind doors and you have people literally locking doors and hiding under tables as the mob was outside. any jokes about violence about nancy pelosi should be out of bounds. jokes about violence aren't good in politics in january, and especially after january 6th and we are six months out and it was a tasteless joke to me given the political targeting that we've seen on the right against nancy pelosi. >> joyce, as they are making those jokes and as they are trying to deflect, we are learning what role some gop lawmakers may have played in the insurrection. slate reporting congressman mo brooks was wearing a bulletproof vest at the january 6th rally and jim jordan telling spectrum news he spoke to trump. take a listen. >> did you speak with president trump on january 6th? >> i spoke with the president last week. i speak with the president all

bet against nancy pelosi. she's been there before. she knows how these things work. and she can work miracles. she's obviously one of the most experienced legislators in the room. she understands rules and procedures. so she may have a trick up her sleeve yet. if they are unable to come to an agreement, it really -- won't say it derails joe biden's domestic agenda, but it really flows down -- slows down the momentum where just a few weeks ago we were talking about how much momentum joe biden had with the senate victory on his infrastructure package. obviously in just a few weeks things have turned considerably given the situation in afghanistan and given this rebellion that we are seeing from moderates in his own party. host: to follow everything that's happening on capitol hill throughout today, go to the hill.com, scott wong is the -- one of the reporters for the hill. you can follow him on twitter@scottwongdc. thank you. that from earlier this morning. we are watching on capitol hill as democrats are gather

pelosi in the time of need. reporter: explain what you would expect from a beef ring -- briefing on sensitive members when congress is out of session but when you talk about bringing congress back, i talked to a lot of members who were disappointed . what would you want congress to do? is there something of legislation layout? put something in concrete terms of bringing congress back. rep. mccarthy: you have five days before the president lets taliban dictate we leave americans in afghanistan. five days counting today. what can we do? we have watched the last briefings we had -- the first briefing we had over a phone -- where they cut people off after a few questions. he did it twice because after the first one, the state department did the exact same thing again, leaving members in the queue but not getting the questions asked when you know member after member has constituents, friends in afghanistan trying to get out. we had it in person when we were called into session or a special session. after an hour and

>>> plus, the feud between house speaker nancy pelosi and minority leader kevin mccarthy escalates. mccarthy is now facing criticism for joking about hitting pelosi with the gavel if he becomes house speaker. the question is did he really think that comment was funny? >>> and after much delay, senators have introduced the long awasted text of their bipartisan infrastructure bill. the question is when will we see a vote? it's "way too early" for this. ♪♪ >>> good morning and welcome to "way too early," the show that at this point would settle for the bronze. we've got some breaking news in olympics just ahead. i eenl jonathan lemire on this monday, august 2nd. >>> let's start with news. we begin with a grim new milestone in the coronavirus pandemic. according to an nbc tally, late last notice total cases surpassed 635 million. florida is quickly becoming the epicenter of this fourth wave of infections, accounting for all, about a fifth of all new cases in the u.s. yesterday the state broke a previous record for current hospitalizations set more than a year ago, well before vaccin

. >>> later, our exclusive interview with house speaker nancy pelosi. what she said about the california recall and how the president is handling afghanistan. >>> good evening, i'm ken bastida. >> i'm juliette goodrich the for elizabeth. tonight we are following dangerous fire weather, prompting a red flag warning that just went into effect. >> let's check in with our chief meteorologist paul heggen with those putting crews on edge tonight. >> we have 16 hours to go in this thing. the north bay mountains, t hillo range. within this, not all of the red shaded areas are equal. we're really focused on the eastern half of napa county, the northern half of solano county. that's where we'll see the gustiest winds and lowest humidity. that's the combination that prompts the red flag warning. the sustained winds north-northeast. offshore direction 30 to 40 miles per hour. gusts up to 50 miles per hourúl. combine that with humidity levels staying below 20%, that's very dry air to go along with dry vegetation we have in place. we're going to watch this carefully

mark: you make an important point, nancy pelosi is in charge of security, sergeant in arms reports to her. who -- or head of capitol police who has been ousted has not been called to testify. nypd got rumbling about events that were going to occur, they positived it to fbi, christopher wray, i don't know what will hee diseveryid day. the only person who was concerned about security then was president trump who offered 10,000 national guardsmen who were turned down. we will pursue that when we come back, we'll be right back. have . that needs to change. so, i did something. i created a black business accelerator at amazon. and now we have a program that's dedicated to making tomorrow a better day for black businesses. ♪ ♪ i am tiffany. and this is just the beginning. ♪ ♪ your shipping manager left to “find themself.” leaving you lost. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do. indeed instant match instantly delivers quality candidates matching your job description. visit indeed.com/hire matching your job description. hey lily, i need a new wireless plan for my business

and we start with breaking news on capitol hill where house speaker nancy pelosi is about to speak any minute now, and the house foreign affairs committee will be briefed about afghanistan by the deputy secretary of state. last night, we learned congressmen went to afghanistan without any government approval. it comes after president biden said he's sticking to his pledge to withdraw u.s. troops by august 31st. he made the announcement after a virtual meeting with our allies, in spite of their arguments for keeping troops past the end of the month. it's also what the taliban wants, after they called that date a red line. and warned of consequences if we keep troops there any longer. but it does come with a contingency. biden told the pentagon and state department to be prepared with backup plans in case things go wrong. and it's not just the taliban he's worried about, the u.s. is also tracking threats against the kabul airport from an isis a affiliate, giving americans and afghan allies even more of a reason to get out, and fast. >> every day we're on the ground is another day we know

how is nancy pelosi going to enforce this? >> it's going to be a challenge for her. republicans, some of them are saying we're going to pain the fine. speaker pelosi has tried to double down on the mask mandates by saying if you're not following the rules, you could face some of your salary being cut. things right now in the house are totally ugly, not only over this issue, but when it comes to the january 6th panel. you had pelosi calling mccarthy a moron. kevin mccarthy said when he gets the gavel to be speaker he'll try not to hit her with it. it's just incredibly insane, the type of rhetoric we're seeing right now. things are really heated. >> it's been bad. i remember gephardt saying when he handed the gavel to gingrich he thought of using it. it was a joke. rick, it is unbelievable. the congress actually seems maybe more divided. >> this is a time where you need national unity or some kind of consensus of what kind follow. you have the opposite. confusin. at this stage you don't have a reservoir of good will that the biden administration has been able to build

i want you to watch nancy pelosi hand me that gavel. [ cheers and applause ]. i'll it will be hard not to hit her. >> it will be hard not to hit her. joining us now, vivian jones, government reporter at main street nashville was at the fundraising event there in tennessee and recorded that audio of mccarthy that you just heard. vivian, thank you so much for being with us. what was the context there of that threat of violence? >> sure. so this happened at the tennessee republican party statesman's dinner, annual fundraiser event that's held each year. about 1,400 people were in the room that night and attendees is who's who of republican party. so really the context around that particular statement, it was about halfway through the night about an hour in. right after leader mccarthy's keynote speech and after the applause died down the tennessee delegation came out and kind of the pace changed a little bit. it was a little more light hearted for those two or three minutes. the theme of the evening really was teeing up for a potential republican victory next year

. >> coming up at 5:30, we sit down with house speaker nancy pelosi. she will be live in our studio, and ask her why the u.s. wasn't better prepared for a worst- case scenario in afghanistan. >>> still ahead on kpix 5, streaming on cbsn bay area, santa clara county sheriff lori smith defends her name. why she said she will fight for her >>> santa clara county sheriff lori smith says she will not step down. ken bastida has her response today on the call for her to resign. >>> sheriff smith held a news conference one day after san jose mayor sam liccardo publicly urged her to resign. sheriff is facing some allegations of civil rights violations, with how the county jail has been managed. her critics point to millions of taxpayer dollars paid out in civil rights cases, costly consent decrees, and ongoing bribery and campaign investigations. today the sheriff said that she'd welcome an investigation. >> we are going to do these investigations. let's see what the truth is. at this time, no. or to quote a general, nuts. there's a lot still to be done. i need

including the ones that have questions with nancy pelosi and leadership in the house? is a lot of questions here but she doesn't want to pursue them. >> like the guy that has a capital police union he put out a letter the other day. everyone sees this for what it is. talk about the democrats not being square with the american people they use the term the big lie what about what they have told us they told us the protest were peaceful and it was republicans trying to defend the police that would be laughable if not so serious but they told us president trump covid with russia and the dossier was real. for four years as recently as october of last year just days before the election hillary clinton said it was stolen i guess the rule is only democrats are allowed to object to election results we can't raise concerns about the fact that state unconstitutionally change their election like he did a great piece on this on the unconstitutional changes made when they went around the state legislatures to change the election pennsylvania is the best example. because the election

will nancy pelosi be able to do it? and then finally this afternoon speaker pelosi did call for a vote on the big bill, giant infrastructure bill, the multitrillion dollar bill, this huge priority for president biden that president biden wants to be his legacy. and she called for that vote this afternoon and every single house democrat voted for it. yes. even the ones who spent the last week saying they were going to kill it. and for all their protests and their red lines and their insistence that they would block this bill if they did not get exactly what they wanted, those nine conservative democrats in the end got nothing. >> i want to thank speaker pelosi who was masterful in her leadership on this. >> when speaker pelosi walked off the house floor this evening, a cnn reporter caught up with her and asked her about the deal she reached with the nine conservative democrats to get them to vote for the bill. speaker pelosi wrote, what deal? they wanted clarification about how we go forward and that's what we did. oh. y

we know that nancy pelosi typically what she goes for is what she gets. so it would be quite rare to see anything changed. but again we are watching to see exactly what's going to come out of this house democratic caucus meeting. will it be an airing of grievances? will they find a way forward? that's what we're seeking to learn as they gather right now. >> what does the biden administration have to say? >> right now they are being very publicly supportive of speaker pelosi's path forward. jen psaki said the president is supportive of doing the budget first and then also doing the infrastructure bill, that that's what they are supportive of. psaki saying that she believes and the president believes he will ultimately be signing both of these bills into law, that this is just how washington works, it's how capitol hill works. but the fact remains is that there's a real schism right now that they're going to have to figure out to find their way forward again with just that three-vote margin, pelosi really has to get everybody to come together and move forwa

elizabeth: nancy pelosi is saying, nancy pelosi stuff happens moment. she told a local tv station in her home district in california this is what happens, talking about the tens of billions of dollars of military hardware and assets left behind by the taliban. congressman jim banks says now that the taliban has more black hawks than 85% of countries, all the countries around the world. massoud is trying to lead a resistance inside of afghanistan. he asked the white house for some military help. he says he was turned down. what do you say to that? >> again, it is incredulous. very difficult to get in the minds of this irrational thought and what congressman banks did say is true. well over 150, perhaps black hawk helicopters, thousands of vehicles, all kinds of arms seeing them utilize it. a complete misunderstanding what is important and it is quite delusional. now, by the way, not just coming out of the white house, here we are in the capital, today, nancy pelosi and much of the leadership of the democrat house are rewarding themselves by passing a, tr

and, nancy pelosi, get out of the way. elizabeth: you know, remember nancy pelosi was caught getting a hair blowout without a mask in a san francisco salon at a time when everyone else in the city was barred from such visits. and salons weren't allowed to operate. they were told to wear a mask. she made things worse by claiming she was set up. that salon was forced to shut down. you know, do you see where we're headed here? so this attitude that you can come in with bare, raw-knuckle power -- raw, bare-knuckle power into california and shut down a recall out of d.c.? if i mean, how are voters in california going to take that? >> i think that voters in california are going to brush with whatever pelosi says aside, and that's why the democrats are so worried right now about the recall. because when you look at the polls in california, they've been trending in the direction of removing gavin newsom. and i think that nancy pelosi realizes she's too late. but she's going to try to throw everything and the kitchen sink at proble

spin on the amazing jill biden and nancy pelosi, the leadership is so impressive, we will pick up where you left off, great show tonight. >> sean: thank you. >> laura: i am laura ingraham, this is "the ingraham angle" from san francisco tonight. you don't have to go all the way to afghanistan to see widespread suffering and despair or to witness a tragic breakdown in civil society. you can see that right here, just miles from multimillion dollar homes owned by the billionaire titans of the tech world. now homelessness and drug abuse has been a problem here for decades, but the situation now is spiraling totally out of control. earlier today just a block from a major police precinct we saw people doing crack on the street and washing their clothes at a dirty leaky hydrant. this once great american city is cratering, and while we are horrified, rightly so as the taliban terrorize the people of afghanistan, where so many numb when our people are being terrorized here. it's a democrat-engineered american tragedy. but are the voters finally wising up? we are going to show you tonight will sh
