Abe GreenwaldPANELIST
Let's just put it that way.
Abe GreenwaldPANELIST
Gregory Meeks is not necessarily a pushover, but he's not.
Abe GreenwaldPANELIST
Adam Smith at Armed Services is not.
Abe GreenwaldPANELIST
Raskin is really just raring to go.
Harrison WattersCORRESPONDENT
But Crocker says it likely will not be that wing of the party calling the shots.
Ryan CrockerSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
That'd be Gregory Meeks for the House Foreign Affairs Committee and Chris Coons for the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
Ryan CrockerSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Both of them are centrist, and I think that's a good thing.
Ryan CrockerSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We do not need more polarization.
Joel RubinGUEST
He'll be, I think, a very thoughtful committee chair.
Joel RubinGUEST
On the House side, you have Greg Meeks returning to the gavel.
Joel RubinGUEST
Mr. Meeks is awesome.
Joel RubinGUEST
He's from Queens.
Piero TozziGUEST
So that's, I think, that's a very good question.
Piero TozziGUEST
What I've heard is that Greg Meeks, who will be the chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, would like to see it continue, albeit under his wing, basically, I guess, as a subcommittee of the Foreign Affairs Committee, and it would be much reduced.
Piero TozziGUEST
It would not have the substantial budget that it did have.
Piero TozziGUEST
So How effective it could be in a new Congress.

Lester MunsonPANELIST
Rock and roll.
Lester MunsonPANELIST
And then in the House, Greg Meeks is a little more traditional.
Lester MunsonPANELIST
He'd been in this role before.
Lester MunsonPANELIST
He'll be chair of House Foreign Affairs Committee, congressional black caucus member, been around for a long time, has a long track record on a bunch of issues, particularly, interestingly, Venezuela.
Piero TozziGUEST
I think one, so I think one bellwether might be what is the fate if the Democrats do take the House, what happens to the Select Committee on the CCP? One thing might be that it's folded under the House Foreign Affairs Committee in a diminished status.
Piero TozziGUEST
And that's, I think, something that Gregory Meeks, who would become the chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, would probably consider.
Piero TozziGUEST
like to see.
Piero TozziGUEST
And that's sort of a halfway measure.

So those issues really have an effect on people and their thinking.
David GuraHOST
Last question here, we had Gregory Meeks, your colleague from New York, on the show yesterday, and I said, are you using the I word? Are you saying impeachment? And he said, I'm not utilizing the I word, I'm using the O word, oversight, the T word, transparency.
David GuraHOST
Are you talking about or thinking about impeachment in the context of this next Congress?
Rosa DeLauroGUEST
I am in lockstep with my dear friend and colleague, Greg Meeks.
