Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi joined Mika Brzezinski on MSNBC's Morning Joe to discuss the recent Congressional delegation to the Indo-Pacific ...

Our preeminence will be more – even more clear to the world, and we thank Joe Biden for his leadership. Speaker Pelosi. Well, we have – we have our differences in our party, and God bless us all for the exuberances we all bring to the table. But we cannot – we have to show our unity to the American people, which we did last week on the CHIPS bill. So again, it's a – it's a slim Majority. We hope to increase it. When it comes to reducing their health care costs or creating better-paying jobs – again, and having clean, safe places for our children, and saving the planet for the future. It has an – it has an integrity to it. And then, today, we'll go to the White House for – signing the CHIPS and Science bill, which will make America more independent and more self-reliant in terms of supply chain and the rest.

We went there in a bigger picture.

Will this be a component of the Dems' messaging leading up to the midterms? And we, again, just on some other issues, talked to them all and thanked them for their strong positions they took against Russia for the invasion of Ukraine. We thanked those on the ASEAN and southern Asian countries – South Asian countries of Singapore and Malaysia for the actions they took against Burma, for what Burma has done executing advocates for democracy in Burma. So we had – our purpose, always, when we go on a trip is about security, economics and the economy, and governance.

The problem is not that Republicans flip-flopped, it's that they only pretended to care about document retention in the first place.

Circling back to our earlier coverage, Republicans, with varying degrees of hysterics, made Hillary Clinton out to be a literal criminal who put the United States at risk. After all, given the GOP’s recent history of passionate feelings on the subject, it stands to reason that Trump may have crossed an intolerable line. Several Republicans who once railed against Mrs. Clinton’s document retention practices did not respond Thursday to questions about Mr. Trump’s actions.
