the very moment last night senator chris murphy was ten hours and 39 minutes into a filibuster unlike any i have ever seen. there had never been a filibuster about gun control before, so that made it historic as soon as it began, but something else happened last night that i've never seen before. the filibuster worked. chris murphy cracked the wall of republican resistance to even voting on any kind of gun safety measure and in today's united states senate controlled by the most unreasonable senate majority in history, the senate that won't even give a supreme court a vote, in that senate, what happened last night was a big victory, a victory won by one democrat who decided to stand up to 54 republicans because he just couldn't take it anymore. >> this debate needs to change. it's outgrown the old political stalemates. >> we want to make sure something like this doesn't happen again. everybody wants that. >> all of us are vulnerable and we have to shut it down. >> this was an old-fashioned filibuster. >> a campaign takathon out here on the senate floor. >> it doesn't take courage to s

by connecticut senator, chris murphy. we will take you there in a few minutes. let's start with two of our road warriors katy tur following the trump campaign and kristen welker following the clinton campaign. katy, you're in beautiful atlanta and donald trump is responding and comments that rubbed many the wrong way. establishment members continue to recoil from trump's rhetoric. does the campaign care about that or is this trump's general election campaign strategy? >> reporter: if the campaign does care about it they certainly aren't acting that way. they said publicly they want party unity. donald trump tweets and re-tweets folks that say the party needs to stand behind him. he's been adamant about that. the party is getting little in return from donald trump for them to stand behind him. this week is just another example of that going after president obama, seeming to suggest he has sympathies with terrorist terrorists. also talking about last night, soldiers taking money from the iraqi reconstruction. the campaign clarified and said he was talking about iraqi soldiers ss and n

man the hour in american politics right now, connecticut senator chris murphy is going to be here live tonight as our guest. i'm very happy to say, senator murphy of course held one of the longest filibusters in senate history last night. he health the floor on the senate for 15 hours without sitting down. without leaving the floor. without so much as a bathroom break. and senators filibuster, senators do stuff like this from time to time, senator sanders did a version of this in 2010, protesting the bush tax cuts. senator rand paul did this to protest the patriot act. ted cruz did something like this to demand the shutdown of the government, basically. but when chris murphy held the floor in the senate last night for 15 hours, he not only held the floor for that truly remarkable length of time, he also did something that is basically unheard of in the modern history of filibusters and even long speeches in the united states senate. which is that at the end of his 15 hours, last night at 2:00 in the morning, senator chris murphy of connecticut, he won. by virtue of that filibuster

doing business as usual, the heroine of chris murphy, that would not have happened, putting these two important terrorists gun safety amendments on the floor for a vote. >> what ises t the state right closing the loopholes and getting background check and some kind of action on people who are on the terror watch list, who were on the no flight list. >> we are going to have the vote on the senate which is our first step and we'll have the weekend to build up support for americans. republicans and democrats overwhelmingly support this gun owners over 80% supporting our measures. it is a matter of the republicans who are seeking to block this to understand that they're not in step of their own contin constituents. we are hoping we can win this vote sometimes next week. >> senator booker, the nra, says this is a matter of a due process. it goes back all tl way back to the fight of the brady bill back in the early '90s. that sounds like an excuse, tell me what your view is? >> democrats believe you are right, there should be a process which accidentally putting on this list and you have a

big wins. the senator who forced the senate to vote today, chris murphy, will join us. >> well, here we go again. >> senate republicans should be embarrassed, but of course they're not. >> the democratic leadership is trying to turn this tragedy into another debate about guns. >> they're embarrassed because the nra is happy. >> these bad guys, oh, gosh they passed a law. >> the power of the gun lobby over certain members of the senate seems boundless. >> what we're doing with this debateen the hill, it's like they're trying to -- [ inaudible ]. >> we may have lost today but we will not give up. >> people deserve to be safe at work, safe at school, at a movie theater and yes, at a night club. >> what am i going to tell 49 grieving families? what am i going to tell the community of orlando? sadly what i'm going to have to tell them is the nra won again. >> announcer: this is the last word on campaign 2016. >> orlando rehearsed. think about that. orlando rehearsed. that's why so many lives were saved. orlando rehearsed it. and they did it just in time. just a few months ago, the orlando

democratic senator chris murphy. he's from connecticut. senator murphy, thank you. i bumped into you last night on another show. we like that here as often as possible. what can the senate do in a bipartisan fashion to really do kind of a fullbright investigation, a frank church investigation, really bring to light what the russians attempted to do, what they got away with, and the consequences of their nasty or mischievous work in this country? >> i think there are two things we can do. one, as you noted, we can have a bipartisan investigation, and we can do it right now. there is no reason to wait until trump is inaugerated. we can start that investigation, begin to collect the information right now and put it on the record to have open hearings talking about what the russians did to try to influence this election. maybe they didn't break into the mainstream media, but the fact of the matter is most swing voters are getting their information from facebook and they clearly penetrated that space. >> thank you, senator chris murphy. >>> up next, let me finish with trump watch for this

shooting was chris murphy. chris murphy was serving in the house at the time. but he had just been elected that year to be the next u.s. senator for connecticut. less connecticut. less than a month before the shooting happened, he had been elected senator. he had not even been sworn in yet when gun violence hit home right in his district and became the north star for his time in the united states senate. senator chris murphy joins us now. i appreciate your time. >> of course. >> what do you think of the president's town hall tonight on guns, the new policies he's just announced. this new initiative really driven by the white house to try to make progress here. what's your reaction? >> i think this is really exceptional that the president of the united states has taken the entire first week of his last year in office. dedicated to one issue. i think this will go down as a seminal week in the history of the andy gun violence movement, not just because something happened, not just because the movement resulted in a change of policy that i think is going to save lives. i think you're g

democratic foreign policy thinking. chris murphy. he sits on the foreign relations committee. here was his reaction tonight. foreign policy consistency is a means, not an end. it's not sacred, thus, it is trump's right to shift policy and alliances, and strategy. what has happened in the last 48 hours, though, is not a shift. these are major pivots in foreign policy, without any plan. that's how wars start. if they aren't pivots, just radical temporary deviations, allies will walk if they have no clue what we stand for. just as bad. and finally, it's probably time we get a secretary of state nominee on board. preferably with experience. like really really soon. end quote. joining us now is senator chris murphy of connecticut. thank you very much for being here with us tonight. i feel like the question that we have to sort of contend with right now is whether it's better or worse if this was an accident. if the president-elect is ignorant of the sensitivities here and what this might mean for our relationship with the other most powerful nation on earth. or whether this is just real

to do that. >> joining me senator chris murphy of connecticut. senator, i want to make an argument to you about today. you tell me why i'm wrong. this is a sort of no upside sort of situation. the actual substantive thing today is pretty small beer by the president's own admission. it's what he can do within the square of the law from an executive perspective and also will alienate folks who don't like the president's gun politics. so what exactly comes out of today? why was today in your mind, a good positive step forward? >> so today was a good day for two reasons. one because i think there is real substance here. gun sales have migrated away from bricks and mortar stores to the internet and these gun shows. by and large those selling online and at gun shows think they're immune from the law that requires commercial sellers to conduct background checks. so very few sellers are doing it online or in these gun shows now that this new guidance has been proffered, i think you'll see a rush of sellers worried for the first time ever of being prosecuted for not adhering to the criminal

senator chris murphy. >> reporter: we're here live with senator chris murphy. he obviously led the filibuster last week regarding wanting to see legislation pertaining to gun control. very unusual that the house floor is actually, to some degree, i guess this is a house version of a filibuster, staging a sit-in on the floor. why are you as a senator coming over to join this? >> i think this is reflective of a public mood that has had enough of the gun lobby standing in the way of common sense legislation that in this case would stop terrorists from getting guns. public polling tells us 90% of americans want to stop terrorists from getting guns. i've never seen this bod gi be so out of step with america. these are exceptional moments between the filibuster last week and the sit-in today. we're trying to rise up and represent the vast majority of americans who are scared and want to take action to protect them. >> you're a former house member. how unusual is this? you never see the house floor essentially taken over by one party where you have a civil rights icon john lewis literally

for today, two republican and two democratic. chris murphy, the senator from connecticut who let the filibuster last week, he's pu pushing to close the gun show loophole for private serials and should have to do background checks and emphasis on stricter background checks on new gun sales. that went down with newtown and will go down today. you should not be able to purchase a firearm if you are on the patch watchlist. that went down after san bernardino. it is expected to go down today. they say there's not enough due process if there is a mistake for a judge to have a view of i and the burden of proof is too difficult and that plays into the republican proposal from senator cornyn from texas, s saying, look, we agree the terrorists should not be able to get these guns and should be done in court for a judicial review. democrats don't like that and doesn't give enough time. another bill put forward by chuck grassley in iowa to try to steer more money into mental health screening and instant background check system but gun advocates say that amendment would weaken the laws on exi
