CATHERINE ENGELBRECHT, TRUE THE VOTE: Good morning Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee. My name is Catherine Engelbrecht. I am the Chairwoman of True the Vote, a nonprofit election integrity organization; the Founder of King Street Patriots, a citizen-led liberty group; and President of Engelbrecht Manufacturing. Thank you for this opportu

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: Look, it was one of those rare, dawning of sanity among Republicans. The principles, I think, are really good, and I would agree with almost all of them. The border enforcement and then legalization, but not amnesty. But, the tactics that they have settled on today are exactly right. The point is that this is something you

JAY LENO: And the worst thing about losing this job, I'm no longer covered at NBC. I have to sign up for Obamacare. Ugh!

JAY LENO: Welcome back! If you're wondering where our good friend -- Kevin Eubanks couldn't be here. Kevin is on tour. He's in France right now. He called me today and he's over there and he wouldn't be back until next week. So if you're wondering where Kevin Eubanks is, he's with us in spirit certainly. Okay. Boy, this is the hard part. I want

JESSE WATTERS: Bill O'Reilly has a question for you. He ran into you at the Kennedy Center Honors recently and you said you'd do an interview with him. In fact, you said you would do an interview with him in your office. So -- HOUSE MINORITY LEADER REP. NANCY PELOSI (D-CA): Yeah, but I already did Greta. WATTERS: You did. PELOSI: That's i

ED SCHULTZ: Joining us tonight is Sandra Fluke, social justice attorney and candidate for California State Senate. Sandra, congratulations. It's always a big decision when you decide to go into public service. You were cast on the scene after Rush Limbaugh took after you for three days on the radio, which actually seriously affected the radio indus

PETER ALEXANDER, NBC NEWS: We read as much as the report as we can. We've listened to briefings on this, but we don't disagree if fewer people are working fewer hours -- more people are working fewer hours, by design, explain in simple terms why that doesn't provide less tax revenue and somehow doesn't hurt the economy if fewer hours are being work

SEN. MARCO RUBIO: Mr. Mamet, have you been to Argentina? NOAH BRYSON MAMET, NOMINEE: Senator, I haven't had the opportunity yet to be there. I travel pretty extensively around the world, but I haven't yet had the chance. RUBIO: Well, here's why I ask -- this is with all due respect. You have an impressive resume, work, and so forth. Obviously

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: I'm glad I'm back tonight because the statement that Carney made is going to be emblazoned on the tombstone of liberalism. He says opportunity. This is what he's heralding in this achievement, that the government is giving opportunity for people to decide if they want to work. This is the liberals' ideal of the opportunity soci

QUESTION: Thanks. To follow on immigration, the CBO report this week -- this is totally separate from health care -- found that the labor force would be slowing after 2017, in part because of baby boomer retirements. Are you using that, or can you use that as an argument for immigration reform? JAY CARNEY: Can you restate that? I’m not sure I

"The question I'm asking is whether or not there's adequate deterrent to prevent the largest financial institutions in this country from breaking the law," Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said at a Senate Banking Committee hearing today. "Right now, if financial institutions can just settle their claims out of court, and get a raise for settling th

SEN. PAT ROBERTS (R-KS): CBO projections during the health care reform debate seemed to significantly underestimate the negative impact of Obamacare, and because of those projections, supporters were able to jam it through one vote. Everybody knows about that vote. And now the American people have to pick up the tab on the CBO's errors. Today, I am

PRESIDENT OBAMA: Today we profess the principles we know to be true. We believe that each of us is wonderfully made in the image of God. We, therefore, believe in the inherent dignity of every human being. Dignity that no earthly power can take away. And central to that dignity is freedom of religion. A right of every person to practice their faith

JOE BIDEN: If I blindfolded someone and took them at 2:00 in the morning into the airport in Hong Kong and said ‘where do you think you are,’ they’d say, ‘this must be America, it’s a modern airport. But if I blindfolded you and took you to LaGuardia Airport in New York, you must think, ‘I must be in some third world country.’ I’m n

TIM ARMSTRONG, CEO of AOL: We have to look at our benefits programs very seriously. In the CEO chair, let me give you an example of the decisions we have to make as a company: Obamacare is an additional $7.1 million expense for us as a company. So we have to decide whether or not to pass that expense to employees or whether to cut other benefits.

"You know, Mother Teresa is a saint now, but if Congress wanted to make her a saint, and attach that to the debt ceiling, we probably couldn’t get 218 votes for it," House Speaker John Boehner said today.

"The State Department warns that travelers should have no expectation of privacy. Even in their hotel rooms. And as we found out, you are especially exposed as soon as you try and communicate with anything," NBC's Richard Engel reports.

RUSH: Jerry Seinfeld is being treated as though he’s a Republican. He’s got this new Web show called Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. He doesn’t have any comedians of color, and so the PC crowd’s accusing him of not having any diversity in his show. He’s telling them to go to hell. He’s being treated like a Republican. (via

Shannon Bream, Fon Fournier, Mara Liasson, and Charles Krauthammer weigh in.

WOLF BLITZER: Would you consider running for president a third time in 2016? MITT ROMNEY: No, I've answered that question a number of times, as you know. And the answer is no. I'm not running for president in 2016. It's a -- it's a time for someone else to take that -- that responsibility. And I'll be supporting our nominee. And there are some v

Bill O'Reilly responds to Jon Stewart's criticism of his pre-Super Bowl Obama interview.

Rebecca Smith, energy reporter for the Wall Street Journal, talks with Rachel Maddow about a sophisticated, mysterious attack on a California power station.

Chris Hayes debates the latest "right-wing talking point" on Obamacare.

REP. STEVE COHEN (D-TN): Nobody dies from marijuana, but people die from heroin overdoses—including the late Philip Seymour Hoffman—every day. Every second we spend trying to enforce marijuana possessions laws is a moment that we’re not enforcing laws meant to protect Americans from the ravages of drugs like heroin and meth. That’s where ou
