states to support the government of pakistan. >> and the democrats got one controversial nominee confirmed and mercy will be the next general of the united states. and doug joined us live from capitol hill with details on this. and vivek murthy was an issue for the nra? >> reporter: that's right. it is all a product of harry reid to impose the nuclear option. and allow the senate to end the filibuster of the presidential nomination from 60 vote threshold that was part and parcel to the simple majority of 51 votes and so in the one 13th congress harry reid is pushing

through a passel of nominees. one of them is the president's pick of homeland security. ted cruz said she is a runner stamp for the amnesty program. and john cornan likes her but is a opposed to the president. >> i fear mrs. sal danna will be tasked of carrying out the unconstitutional presidential action. refusing to enforce the immigration laws and these fears were not a leled. >> robert menendez tore in to

announcing he is seriously considering a run for the republican presidential nomination and poes posted this message on facebook. i have decided to actively explore the possibility of running for president of the united states. i hope to visit with many of you and restore the promise of america. jerry, it seems like the announcement in here, i am somewhere between thinking of it and doing. it why make the announcement. >> you form the exploratory committee. and have a place to hire people to staff up and collect contributions and donations. and so this is close to saying i am running for president and puts the machinery in place to do that. why do that now. the jeb bush team is small and

a closely held decision and my guess is they want to get out ahead of a draft mitt romney movement and puts everyone on notice, that if you are a donor or talented republican operative you have a place to g. and i suspect he wants to scoop up the donor and staff commitments at the same time. >> and folks are waiting to see if jeb bush gets in and out and if they decide who they are going to get behind. jeb bush is going to have big problems. obviously there is not a lot of secrets that he is considering this and a lot of interviews. take a look at. this >> i know how a republican can win, whether it is me or somebody else and it has to be uplifting and positive and much more willing to be practical now in washington where losing the

primary to win the general. it is not a easy task. >> and twoft principles that jeb bush holds dear. stance on common core and neither of those are popular with voters in iowa and new hampshire. how does he overcome this? >> i did an interview with him, just two weeks ago, actually and in that conversation he talked about those two things and talked about things regulatory reform and tax reform and he talked about essentially taking on the role of the government in other places and if you talk to jeb bush. i am a conservative and i think those two issues stand out pause they cut. immigration reform and core standards on education. he is taking on education. he said if you don't like core,

because of federal intrusion. do it at a store perspective. >> and a lot of folks are talking about 2016 and 2015 just around the corner. they pushed through the trillion dollar spending bill to keep the government running until next year. it is becoming a rare commodity in congress. as things move in 2015, republicans in the senate and house, what is this going to mean? a by partisanship working together with the president and speaker or have it break down and get worse in terms of the clog in washington? >> history shoes the cleanly divided government congress and white house and they do tend to

come together more than people realize, but the difference is right now, they have a deeply polarized level at congress with no overlap with the republicans and democrats, and that gets worse next year because of the moderate republicans and democrats in the senate lost elections and they are gone. there is less ground in the middle between the two sides. you will see the president and mitch mcconnell and republican leaders do want to get together and things done. they will have to pull it. >> ted cruz is trying to score political points. and jerry, thank you so much. we appreciate. it >> started your christmas shopping yet? >> oh. >> and this next one is you. amazon is giving an early christmas gift. it is not too late to pick out

care of themselves? >> that is a great question. we have trained them for over a decade and the sad truth, there is a strong belief in my community and from what i saw they are not ready to take over the mission. this is the bloodiest year for the afghan soldier. 4600 have been killed this year. this is not a loss that is sustained if we have successful efforts moving forward with them in the lead. i think it is it safe to say, that if we watched iraq destabilize after we left, many of us believe afghanistan will follow the same path. >> you talk to the menu served with, what did they say about

they are asked to do in afghanistan? >> it is difficult, heather, we are expected to do a lot without support these days. we are asked to step out and one hand, we have tied behind our back. many individuals are frustrated. >> we want to thank you for all of the good work and doing it quietly. and before i let you go. pakistan, pakistan had such a history of murky links with so many shadow groups. what is your thoughts on what happened in pakistan? >> it is hard to wrap wrour mind around the horrific acts that could lead or take place that killed so many children. you know, i think the western counties have a fairly safe understanding that when the president calls the head of the

if is difficult how it could be structured differently. and assure us it couldn't happen. it would notes in he have prevented it. this particular individual, there, if you look closely into it. one of the this occurred is we are going through in a change of the by laws and becoming them in affect and requires the court, staff and judges and magistrates to be educate in theed change. that itself could be a factor. >> one thing that struck out that was interesting, was the

messaging that came out of australia. i want to read a facebook post by one of the hostages, he, meaning the gunman threatening to start killing us. he wants the world to know that australia is under attack pie the threat of the islamic state. the news conference doesn't so many to be said with urgency that it was a mass terrorist attack and that australia is under attack by the islamic state and the attacker said just that. >> the authorities are trying to avoid confirming the theories. >> if we step back from the horror of all of this. they are asking what does the

terrorist want to a chief. >> they are instrumental and angry. they have a plan. and what is the good outcome for him? he wants that level of publicity and perceived as a massive and out come which is worldwide coverage. and so i think it is not unreasonable to take a measured approach for that reason. and that is the standard hostage situation, that they look for a negotiated outcome. >> you bring us interesting points to be debated and dr. charles night thank you,sir. >> and a american survivor of ebola will go back to liberia to
