we will see you next week. neil: so much for new year's resolutions because you may try to stick to th diet by washington gave up trying. welcome, everybody. i am neil cavuto. get ready to get back to continue more spending because it never stopped. ending the week with the budg that is weak. a.m. did goodies for all including to keep democrats happy in benefits to keep republicans happy but if you are among those who wor about the debt and more spending, you are not happy.

tough. the president thinks even the mice -- smallest promised even for a livg adjustments wth some benefit progra that are not happening in republicans are not arguing. spending money like we have it and a farm bill that has little to do with arms it infrastructure spending when we have little to show for those we have already spent with infrastructure. forget republicans crying foul they are not saying boo no wonder the tea party is boiling. now meee 80 partier who does not tak this lying down. the big rush to give up the fight and will likely keep sing elections as a result

their folding one after another. this is completely will not work in their favor tey are afraid to be called obstructionists that is almost lghable if i were a republican right now with the leadership position in that building i with rocks that obstructionist label and weart for all it is worth. but they cower because they don't want to be called nas. but they will and i will be sure because this kind of behaor is what is wrong. tech on another $56 billion for grand kids? neil: an issue from the debt commission share said yesterday he is listed. >> it is alice in wonderland and it gets worse every day beuse this president will

fail as the president his legacy is imperiled if he does not do something. neil: but with the doing it with those who are hanging their hats on health carexploding but have you noticed his poll numbers? they are beginning to move up some babies casting fortunes and then giving up spending resolve. >> for republicans to say i am disappointed does not sell any more. so that the digest statement as when i will spend as much as 5.back up whenever debt and don't worry about any of responsible budget a and hand it to my children. but they get away with this because the republicans don't say anything.

they just keep raising via debt ceiling that i prefer to call the ted they say it is not our fault but obamacare has fectively to points the finger at the republicans and they tower in the of corner. they have a job to do. say no to ridicuus spending. neil: spending money that you n't have is wrong. always a pasure. did rublicans asked for this snding? the farm bill, and on and without a single attachment is it any wonder they keep going for the dollar? my next guest is wondering of former republican and wisconsin governor in former hhs secretary is years u have to wonder about t logic that they are using

now to avoid rocking th boat even as they sign on to more spending? >> absolutely. the truth is that the only good thing about the $56 billion tax increase budget battle, puts forth his $22 billion less than the last failed budget. it goes no place ahead, nowhere, the dead on arrival, the spokesperson for the white house said it is a political document but the republicans have to show leadership. but like the perso before has indicated that people out here are wondering what ll take place. they understand working between eight and 10 hours a day they cannot spend money they don't have. republicans need to put a

stake in the ground but who is fiscally responsible? neil: you hit the nail on the head. ryan cousins of logic of the leaders to say we don't want another government shut down to be the obstructionist but the danger thinking health care will be germane in november you have to hope that continues to the case the president's numbers are taking up andnd now the health care law is stilizing. nothat it is great or he is a great president but americans -- republicans have given up with the hope that they will get their way in november. i think they are eating their cake and a little too early to. >> if they don't stand up than nobody will.

it is their dna. that is what the republican party stands for fiscal responsibility that is what we're asking for. they don't like obamacare. is a failure. they want to make su they don't pay grab this country to put off on our sonsnd daughters and grandchildn. people are thirsty for a leadership they want republicans to be accountable with washington. neil: but they say they get mixed messages below and behold when they have the cost of living increase then no, no, no. some republicans fear they are in electrocuted. what is your advi? >> be straight with the american people. the entitlement programs are out of line, we cannot afford them or continue to raise the debt over

$17 trillion. we will bankrupt this country it is time somebody says so to get the people behind us. they have to do it day in and day out and not wait for somebody else. they have to do it. neil: tommy thompson. former governor thank you. one way t not get young people on your side. >> the truth is young people are knuckleheads. [laughter] il: you will not believe why this woman was arreste. >> i am not breaking the law >> i am taking the phone. >> know you are not. >> yes i am. >> sorry. >> sorry. get off of me.

my dad has aor afib.brillation, he has the most common kind... ...it's not caused by a heart valve problem. dad, it says yr afib puts you at 5 times greater risk of a stroke. that's why i take my warfin every day. but it looks likemaybe we sd thask your doctor my warabout pradaxa. in a clinical trial, pradaxa® (dabigatran etex. ...was proven superior to warfarin at reducing the risk of stroke. and unlike warfarin, with no regular blood tests or dietary restrictions. hey thanks for calling my doctor. sure. pradaxa is not for people with artificial heart valves. don't stop taking pradaxa without talking to your doctor. stopping increases your risk of stroke. ask your doctor if you ed to stop pradaxa before surgery or a medical or dental procedure. pradaxa can cause serious, sometimes fatal, bleeding. don't take pdaxa if you ve abnormal bleeding or have had a heart valve replaced. seek immediate medical care for unexpected signs of bleeding,

like unusual bruising. pradaxa may increase your bleeding risk if youe 75 or older, have a bleeding condition or stomach ulcer, take aspirin, nsaids, or blood thinners... ...or if you have kidney problems, especially if yotake certain medicines. tellour doctors about all medicines you take. pradaxa side effects include indigestion, stomach pain, upset, or burning. if your someone you love has afib not caused by a heart valve problem... ...ask your doctor about reducing the risk of stroke with pra. so ally bank has a thaton'that's correct.te. cause i'm really nervous about getting trapped. why's that? uh, mark? go get help! i have my reasons. look, you don't have to feel trapped with our raise your rate cd. if our rate on this cd goes up, yours can too. oh that sounds nice. don't feel trapped with the ally raise your rate cd. ally bank. your money needs an ally.

[laughter] >> i would ner do both of those [laughter] neil: knuckleheads need to sign up for obamacare the we thoughte would ask a cole. charlie is here with us.

a and i guess neither of you relish being called a knucklehead? >> i am a bad coke so i do slice my finger but that was ridiculous to make that statement wind up white house needs young people to enroll in oer to be successful. late will turn more people a way. they try to push these big policies with said many states that says don't people don't know how to make choices for themselves that is what was rflected with heard knucklehea comments. that is where the administration it is making an error. it was a sharp tone althoh she tried to be humorous. we will tell you what is best for you instead of them being empowered for themselves neil: i know what she was

trying to say that they think they are indestructible but this is the bullet proof stage but it was a clumsy way to frame at but you may not see q need health insurance but sign up now. did she impressed you >> not really. she called it a knucklehead but i would say young people are reasong with t health care law making a sound economic decision of a sudden the minimum policy has tripled? if you cannot afford it i will pay the small fine. that his is a good consumers are live would disagree fundamentally. i think she meant what she said but i don't think she meant to say it provides think previously they will get our generation as knuckleheads that they can

trick to vote for those policies. neil: that is interesting. we were showing theouth vote the last couple of ections overwhelmingly for the presint and democrats as tends to be the case. maybe she just takes it for granted that people understand? >> i think they tried to play off of millenials card wait too long but they are disenchanted with the obama administration and policies. young america foundation nationwide pulling it is 40 perce think the government is too big and too intrusive as opposesed 4% think it itoo small. what's is resonating is the conservative values of limited vernment and free market policies. that is not obamacare and

when they see sticker shock premiums are going up because they have the subsidized heal care. neil: you should get on the stake and take care of me but you are not. but is there a potential even with all the problems the young peeple have second thoughts on government? to be very altruistic and generous? >> absolutely. altruism is easy when you spend other people's money. but actually the eggs under people's money doesn't need to be spent we pay the price. it is forced by coercion. young people as ashley just stated eloquently we are forced to pay for polics we will not benefit from as the big kraft our future and we cannot afford it.

of with love to take care of you but i cannot pay higher premiums. neil: i am not take get personally i wish that wisdom was way beyond the young people. thank you. neil i justin beaver only big with kids? he is even bigger with those parents because the media is hot on anything coming out of him than any scandal seems to constantly bubble up around him.

neil: is it a felony? is it a no, that is felony. give me your phone. >> right. she told him she was recordiig hill. she did what florida law requires. requires both parties are informed. they're informedeing recorded. she is fully allowed to record him. >> no one informs me when i'm pulled over, you know, that the dashboard cam on the cop's car is on. he doesn't tl me, by the way you're being recorded right n. it is just done. no one checked with me. >> right well that is the pice. they're allowed to do a lot more things than normal citizens are. the fact she was complying with the law in this situation. e cop clearly lost his temper. neil: what do you think? >> neil, i actually agree with you guys. the cop did go way too far. but really have to question what was the woman's motivation. traffic law.he vie rate ad the cop had every right to pull her over, ask her questions, give her a citation.

instead of letting him do that, letting i be she preemptively records the officer even before he gets to her car. neil: she told him, she was. so it is not as if she pull ad fast one. >> why was she doing it? why was she doing it, neil? neil: maybe his demeanor or lauage or said something. >> it was before, it was before even came up to the car. she already started recording. neil: what is wrong with her recording? let's say nothing precipitated. what is wrong with her cording? what didhe do wrong? >> there is nothing wrong. there is nothing wrong i agree she had every legal right to record this officer but you listen to the tape, you know when an officer give you a reasonable c command, when he is pulling you over, neil you followhat command. neil: no. a lotf them are bullies. they love power. come over. and all of sudden. >> right. neil: no. >> pulled her out of the car. neil: one at a time. one at a time.

ashley, on that pointlone i think officer overstepped it but,ot only abusive te and demeanor but making a big stink over something i think was genuinely harmless. >> and i think that people should record their interactions with police more often because we're ending up with he said/she saids a lot of times after the fa. the police are better off regarding -- recording all their interactions. can put a camera on lapel. you mtion earlier, neil, recording on their cars. they're smart to do that i would like to see all the police departments use that. if a citizen wants to record them, i don see any problem with it. i think that is their right. we're playing for pice officers to patrol our areas and keep us safe. if we want to keep our cell phones on to record them, i don't have any problem with that. neil: nadia? >> i don't have a problem with itither. excuse me, i think when a police officerulls you over and he is requesting put the phone down, give me your phone, let me see your hands, police officers nee a certain level of authority

neil: 13 billion bucks in fines not enough? to hear better markets ceo dennis keller tell it when i comes to jpmorgan not nearly enough. keller is so ticked off about the settlement he is suing jpmorgan over that settlement. he says the financial firm got off way too easy. the proof is rewarding its ceo jamie dimon with a $20 million pay package that made it look way too easy. so, dennis, you're suing on what ground and for how much? >> hi, neil. nice to see you. thanks for having me. we're suing the department of justice actually because it exercised unilatera power by cutting a deal with jpmorgan chase behind closed doors where jpmorgan chase paid the executive bnch $13 billion, and the executive branch acting through the department of justice gave jpmorgan chase complete,

blanket, civil immunity for massive, pervasive illegal conduct relating to inflating the subprime mortgage bubble that caused the crash in 2008, which was the largest crash since 1929 and it caused the worst economy sips the great depression. neil: who caused that? are you saying jpmorgan did or the government looking the other way? >> there is plenty of blame to go around but certainly the crisis was caused by pervasive, fraudulent, illegal, and sometimes criminal conduct by the too big to fail banks on wall street. neil: on that point, i don't mean to jump on you because that is crucial point. the banksay, and jpmorn says, punishment mete the out, 13 billion more than enoug leave us alone. >> and you're right. that's what they do say and what we're saying is, cutting a back-room deal that is secret between the executive branch and the biggest, most politically-connected powerful bank in the united states, jpmorgan chase, with no accountability or oversight is

not permissible uder our form of government. better markets is ofn called the wall street watchdog but we're also a government watchdog. we believe there has to be accountability on wall street and washington, d.c. and the way to get that is require the department of justice to submit this settlement to a federal court and let's see if it withstands the scrutiny of the light of day for the american people. neil: you know, i would sooner think get government upon us to find out this money earmarked to shareholder relief and those who were burned and relief for them, that actually goes to that intended purpose. i doubt that very much. >> well, it is actually t even all for that. $2 billion was a penalty -- neil: that's right. >> paid to the u.s. treasury. but, neil, ask yourself, if jpmorgan chase had 300 or $400 billion in liabilities do you think a $13 billion settlement would be very much? it wouldn't even be a slap on the wrist. neil: what would be? what would be? >> wl we don't know any of the facts. we do not know how much money

jpmorgan chase made from its illegal conduct. we don't know how much investors lost. we don't know how much liabilities at stake. the department of justice didn't not even disclose which laws they alleged jpmorgan violated, who violated them or how. neil: all right. >> they constructed this deal to conceal, not reveal to the american people. so what they're trying to do is se this as being tough on wall street when providing no one, including the american public, any information that they can judge for themsels. better markets we believe in transparency and accountabily to the arican people. until the amerineople have enough information to judge for themselves, there is no reason should be trusting them. neil: dennis keller, thank you very, ryuch. >> thanks, neil. neil: switching gears ever so slightly. see this kate upton video. some viewershink we're way overdoing i. guess what, apparently nine out of 10 of you think we are not overdoing it enough. tit-for-tat on the story we continue to shamelessly milk.
