kelly: fox news alert, uncle sam turns off the lights. while that is going on, women in nationwide are marching for women inequality. i'm kelly wright. >> i'm julie banderas. women, millions of women across the nation take to the streets to march for greater political power. many federal agencies are closing amid a government shutdown which began at midnight this morning, most essential groups like our troops will report for duty but without pay,
11:01 am
their deadline is looming, after fail to go reach compromise senate leaders from both sides of the aisle are pointing fingers. >> what we have just witnessed on the floor was a cynical decision by senate democrats to shove aside millions of americans for the sake of irresponsible political gains. >> every american knows the republican party controls the white house, the senate, the house, it's their job to keep the government open, it's their job to work with us. julie: are gop leaders in a hurry to end the shutdown? >> julie, republicans that i have spoken to don't think that it's on them to end the shutdown. there was a lot of positive energy in conference room a few hours ago first thing this morning with all house republicans got together and they were told that there are
11:02 am
not going to be any negotiations about a fixed for daca recipients until the government is back open. >> ly tell you inside the democratic conference they are not happy about this, because they understand, too, daca is not shutting down or have any problems until march and you have court case on it where they they are filing is, military and children's health care program is being shut down by schumer and all the other items. >> mitch mcconnell has signed on continuing resolution that will last february 8th, that seems to be enough to flip at least one to have republicans who voted no last night, lindsey graham who explains himself like this, after extensive discussions with senators on both sides of the aisle, i believe such a proposal would pass if there was a commitment that after february 8th, the senate will would move onto immigration debate with open amendment process if no alternative
11:03 am
agreement was reached with the white house and the house of representatives and i spoke to the white house legislative director marc short and said that the president has spoken to mcconnell at least once today, julie. julie: peter, how are democrats defending their no votes when it comes to the continuing resolution? >> julie, they are basically saying they are voting no because an immigration deal that they thought might happen fell apart. >> negotiating with president trump is like negotiating with jello, that why this will be called the trump shutdown. president's time is requirement- >> pelosi is i think to anything she can to scrub schumer shutdown because she is now instead trying to name this one after the president. she just said, happy
11:04 am
anniversary, mr. president, your wish came true, you wanted a shutdown, the trump shutdown is all yours and i just wrote -- road up hire with republican senator and democratic senator said you know that's how i like to spend my weekends, so there is an appetite to make a deal, it just doesn't seem like it's going to happen any time soon because both sides are so dug in. julie: yeah, both sides are pointing fingers as they always do when an agreement with not be reached but to make very clear, the president does not want a shutdown. if there's no room for negotiation when it comes to daca deal, what do democrats do? what is chuck schumer insinuating when he holds a news conference that points finger at the president, you're cutting military spending, you're putting halt on children's health care, you're putting a halt on all pressing issues all because of daca, what does it
11:05 am
come down to? >> it comes down to how long do they keep the government close while things like military pay are getting delayed while the funding for the children's health insurance program remains in jeopardy or remains in the balance. but republicans are basically saying and this is kind of what they are trying to communicate to democrats, they will talk about daca once the shutdown is down, -- done, they want to reopen. i spoke to somebody from speaker ryan's office, there was never any doubt that a fixed, permanent legal protections for people who were brought into this country illegally as kids, there was never any doubt that that deal would happen by the march deadline. that's why they think -- they are trying to communicate this. useless for democrats to assume even some credit in the public fear for a shutdown for
11:06 am
something that was probably georgia to happen anyway. julie: republican leader mccarthy said and was unified and extension of funding working by senate republicans said would likely pass the house, what exactly happened and could an extension essentially bring the government back into business, thank god it's a weekend because this is a slow going shutdown, not much you will see happen until monday, so they do have essentially until monday to fix this. >> right, but even beyond that, this administration has been clear they're not going to do things that they think were purely symbolic like put a fence around the washington monument or the world war ii memorial and tell everyone that they are closed ant can't go in or closed down national parks, zinke was at the memorials this morning, the visible things that happened
11:07 am
in 2013 are not going to happen this time. that does not mean that there are not significant potential problems if this shutdown wears on particularly with military funding and with chip, but they are just trying to make the point, they are trying to communicate that the -- the shutdown could last a few days and if they fix it shortly, and they sign up on that three-week deal, then perhaps most people won't actually feel a difference out at -- wherever they live. julie: yeah, first of all, we hear anita vogul who is standing in the midst of millions of women who are protesting today and one of the things that protest first and vote later, okay, you have to and democrats must keep in mind that voters and americans are watching. if you allow a government shutdown, how much trust does the voter have in their given party whether republican or democrat? house speaker paul ryan said this, senate democrats shut down the government and now senate
11:08 am
democrats need to open the government back up. republican and democratic leaders both said that they would continue to talk raising the possibility of a solution over the weekend, but house republican leaders once again are vowing they are not going to bend when it comes to daca. when will democrats bend on this issue or are they going to allow this to continue. >> that is a good question and if anybody knows the answer, then they could probably -- nobody knows. i can tell you this, julie, i have heard democratic members walking up to republicans today saying how long do you think this thing is going to go, neither side really knows, the one thing that's off the table is very short-term continuing resolution, something that's only a couple of days long. it does not seem like there's any appetite for that at the white house, among the republican conference, that is not going to go anywhere. julie: yeah. >> the three-week deal has bipartisan support, lindsey graham one of the no votes in the senate said he would support
11:09 am
it too, that could be the way the senate digs out of the shutdown. you to remember f think make significant changes, anything else other than shorten it, they have to kick it back to the house where they can then vote on the changes if they want to and that is not a guaranty either because they went right up to the last minute as well. julie: i mean, the finger pointing has got to stop. nancy pelosi saying, happy anniversary, mr. president, your wish came true, you want to shut down, the shut down is all yours. it is not all the president, it is both sides, there are two sides. we will continue to see which one will give in order to prevent this mess from continuing. peter doocy, thank you so much, great reporting as always. kelly. kelly: so we continue to follow along the developments of today, it's a pretty big story that's going on, another part of the story is women's marchs now underway across the nation similar to the major demonstrations this time last year, you'll recall, protesters now taking to the streets here
11:10 am
in new york city as well as in the nation's capital and hundreds of other cities standing by with all of this caroline live in washington with the latest, caroline. >> hi, there kelly, the focused of last year's protest was going against the election of president trump and his inauguration. but this year's scene is power to the polls, trying to get more women to run fur office. thousands of signs and pink hats, they are running a bit late, democratic members of the house who are promising to vote president trump out of office in 2020, democratic senators still in town for shutdown. >> one year ago millions of women and the men and children who have their backs marched around the world to send this message, women deserve to be heard, women deserve to be respected, women deserve to lead. >> thank you for showing us what
11:11 am
democracy looks like. i look forward to marching and running and fieging with you, thank you so much. god bless our great country. >> president trump tweeting just 19 minutes ago about the march, quote, beautiful weather all over our great country, a perfect day for all women to march, get out there now to celebrate the historic milestones and unprecedented economic success and wealth creation that's taken place over the last 12 months. lowest female unemployment in 18 years. here in dc they are running a bit late, the march was set to start -- any moment now we expect speakers to wrap up. they keep getting members of congress coming buy and wanting to speak to crowds, had the 1600 pennsylvania avenue and deliver this message to the president. >> the fact that he pointed out that unemployment rate among women has been at its lowest,
11:12 am
any reaction at all from some of the women that you have spoken to that are out there, are they in agreement with that or are they still criticizing the president and if they are on what basis are they criticizing him? >> i haven't asked him specifically about the tweet, kelly, no love for president trump here. there are plenty of signs, some of them quite vulgar talking about the president, this is definitely a democratic crowd. the speakers have been mostly democratic. the anger here is still around. you might remember last year, the day after the inauguration at women's march, plenty of anger there, today we are also seeing joy, people yelling and screaming, what they are excited about women candidates, record number of women have register today run for congress, also at local level. so that's happy but we have found not a single trump supporter, support so far today. kelly: drumming up more support for women who will be able to run for office, it sounds like
11:13 am
they are also trying to drum up enough support to get women to the polls, noticeably absent this year, however, would be the pink hats. >> there are couple of pink hats. not wall to wall like we saw last year. there's a few dotted through the crowd. talking to one women, why did you come, why are you here, the atmosphere here in dc and the capitol is broken, doesn't like the fact that the federal government has shut down and can't come down to agreement, i'm here for that, i'm here to fix government. kelly: that sounds like they are casting the blame for the government shutdown on all sides then. all right, caroline, thank you. julie: and we are awaiting a news conference, briefing with white house budget director mick mulvaney and white house legislative affairs director marc short this is suppose to happen any minute now, we will continue to watch the podium as soon as there's activity, we will bring it to you live, first we take a quick commercial break, stay with us.

11:17 am
11:18 am
live information from them as they speak directly to the american people about the government shutdown that's going on now. julie: republicans and democrats blaming each other to pass short-term bill to continue funding the government. >> it's important to note that this is the fifth republican shutdown. they don't believe in governance, so shutting down government is sort of a means to an end for them. >> we did not put anything, there's nothing in the bill they disagree with, the only thing they disagree with is almost like a tantrum, you have to take over government, you have to do what i want otherwise everybody will be hurt. julie: who will take the most heat for the shutdown, david hawkins, president trump accuses democrats of holding our military hostage over this government shutdown, he tweeted the democrats are holding our military hostage over their desire to have unchecked illegal
11:19 am
immigration, can't let that happen. is there one single party to blame here? >> absolutely not. it take twos parties to run the government and and the system that we have which -- which does require in a closely divide, 60 votes, the democrats need to provide votes but what the public thinks right now is that this is mostly the republican's fault, there is one poll out overnight, the washington post abc news poll that shows just about half the country blames the president and the republican majority, about 30% blame the democrats, and about 20% blame both. so this to me says this is -- this is the price you pay for unified government to much has been given and much is expected. they run the government. that's the simple argument. they run the government, it's up to them to figure out how to
11:20 am
keep it open. julie: yesterday he held an emergency press conference essentially saying what we are calling this is the schumer shutdown. let's see what he has to say. >> the morning the president has spoken to leader mcconnell, speaker ryan, leader mccarthy, he also received updates from secretary nielsen about payments, salary not going to border agents, he also spoke with secretary mattis who gave an update about 90,000 magsal guardsmen and 20,000 army reserves who have had training canceled because of the government shutdown, additionally, additional cost that is they've had to incur, they have to pick up own pay and travel costs, we stand here ready to sign the bill that the house passed last night, anxious to keep the government open or i should say to reopen the government, the white house position, though, remains the
11:21 am
same, that we will not negotiate the status of 690,000 unlawful immigrants while hundreds of millions of taxpaying americans including hundreds of thousands of our troops in uniform and border agents protecting our country are held hostage by senate democrats. we continue to remain anxious to reach a deal on daca and we look forward to resuming those negotiations as soon as senate democrats reopen the government. the reality, though, that's difficult for, i think, many americans to understand is if you put forward a bill that continues funding the government, reauthorize health insurance for 9 million children, provides a relief of taxes that democrats and republicans want a bipartisan basis, the rationale for shutting down the government
11:22 am
over a bill that republicans and democrats agree with on the basis of saying, we will not -- we will not negotiate, we will not reach a resolution to open the government until there's a solution on a issue that remains plenty of time to be solved, i think americans have a hard time to understand how to make the argument why we are not going the pay men and women in uniform, agents serving on the border in order to try to resolve an issue that we also want to resolve related to unlawful residents. we look forward that the senate minority leader is going to -- has offered a continuing resolution that goes for three weeks instead of the original four weeks. we look forward to that vote, we hope that senate democrats will yield and accept that their position is unreasonable and reopen the government to make sure that our men and women in
11:23 am
uniform continue to get paid. director of omb mick mulvaney is here to address the status of the update and how it's impacting government agencies and then we will take a few questions. >> good morning, good afternoon u a couple of different things, walk-through some of the -- how a lapse in appropriations, a shutdown works, keep in mind, the technical term, the legal term is actually a lapse in appropriation so when you saw the notices go out today, they referenced a lapse, that's the formal name for the shutdown. this morning, early this morning federal workers got notices from various agencies as to whether they were exempt and fell into three categories, either you were exempt and come to work today or monday fending on schedule, you were absolutely not to come to work today and going over to monday or there's actually another group of people that would show up a few hours monday, up to four hours in
11:24 am
order to close down shop or prepare for the lapse. so those notices went out today. i mentioned yesterday that this shut down, this lapse would look different than it did in 2013. we are already seeing evidence, i i want to walk you through a couple of ways it's already different. in 2013, most of the epa shutdown immediately during the lapse. epa this year consistent with omb guidance and directed to the president, it's using balance, carried-forward funds, most of the agency will remain open unlike several years ago, mind safety inspection, the number of inspectors that will be on the job for mind safety inspections will increase from 25% of the total in 2013 to 50%. here again part of the administration's intention plan to use unobligated funds that are already at the agency, something that the previous administration did not
11:25 am
emphasize. cybersecurity, maintenance and safeguard of it systems will continue to work during the lapse and that systems will continue to get their critical updates. national parks, you may have already noticed that, the parks, private concessions that served them are open as i mentioned yesterday, won't be picking up the trash or cleaning the bathrooms u number five, trade negotiations, i think the obama administration canceled high-level negotiations, by contrast it will use funding flexibility. we talked about that, the ability to use carried-forward funds, ability to use transfer of funds from one account to another in order to continue around 6 of the nafta negotiations later this week. finally, last example i have is that the academy was closed during 2013, will stay hope. another important example that doesn't compare apples to apples
11:26 am
in 2013, but how we are managing differently than the democrats did during 2013 shutdown, after working closely with the white house, with omb to review the exceptions allowed in the law for agencies to continue to operate as work is necessary to protect life and safety, cdc announced this morning they will continue immediate response work and surveillance to protect americans from seasonal i fluenca. so we will have continued updates on that either today or tomorrow as to thousand shutdown, thousand lapse if it continues is managed. with that, i think we will take a couple of questions. the gentleman in the back. >> i'm wondering how concerned you are that if we look at both the media, twitter, hash tags trending that trump shutdown seems to be far surpassing democrat shutdown or gop shutdown, how concerned are you that the onus of this -- public seems to be on the president? >> my favorite is still the schumer shutdown.
11:27 am
i have the nice ring to it, doesn't it? , yes, sir. >> the meeting yesterday with the president thinking he had broad outline of the deal and something happened that the schumer changed his mind, what's your account of that meeting? i know you weren't in the room. >> i was in that meeting but i did talk to the chief about it this morning. to give you an example of how mr. schumer is mischaracterizing the discussions, one of the things according to the chief that mr. schumer told the president, i will give you all of the money that you want for the wall and the president said, that's great, i need 20 billion and mr. schumer said, no, 1.6, that's what you asked for. $1.6 billion request in 2018 budget that we would like to see in 2018 appropriations bill. that's not all the money for the wall nor was it ever intended to be all the money for the wall
11:28 am
but chuck schumer said i'm giving you everything you asked for the wall and then when pressed admitted that he wasn't doing. that's the type of negotiation that mr. schumer has been engaging with the president. you have to ask yourself at one point, does it even become profitable to continue to work with somebody like that, so mr. schumer is going to have to up his game a little bit and be honest with the president of the united states if we are going to see progress on that front. >> how long will the shut down last? >> you have to ask congress. again, the democrats in the senate could end shutdown today. >> days, weeks? >> we plan mostly a day at a time. you sort of look, there's different sort of things on the horizon. for example, one sort of goal post. we will manage day by day. the funds that i have mentioned, some agencies are sitting on quite a bit of carried-forward funds. they can go on longer without being impact. some have none, they would be impacted immediately. there's no real individual
11:29 am
answer to that. >> is the president going to go to davus if there's government shutdown? >> my understanding is that the president will not be going to florida now and we are taking davos from the president's perspective and the cabinet perspective on a day-by-day basis. >> you'll talk about after you get government shutdown. there's been talk among democrats of trust issues, if democrats do agree on the short-term cr, why should democrats think they should trust this president on that? >> i would say, again, that when you step back for a second on where we were in asking congress to address when general kelly came, providing what we asked in october and refining that again, and i know that there's been some questions saying that there's -- senator schumer today said there's lack of clarity as to what the white house is asking for, i don't think
11:30 am
there's lack of clarity. here is the principals we set up in september, seven pages sent to congress, here are the things we are asking for in the four broad categories. over the course of negotiations, it needs to be refined, we sent back several weeks ago, a three-page document that pulled off some of the items that we were asking for off of the table particularly on interior enforcement and meet negotiation the white house, bipartisan in nature with leadership, republicans and democrats that many of you covered and were shown to national audience, in that conversation at the end, there was agreement that there would be four principal, kevin mccarthy, durbin, cornyn and continues to focus on the four principals. what i would add to mulvaney's comments, i would look as progress that democrats are willing to accept border security and physical barriers, that's a step forward as well. there's areas where we have
11:31 am
given some ground which is they want a broader definition of the daca population. to me that's progress. all the more reason is to if we are making progress, why are we shutting down the government? why are we shutting it down? we were making progress. we are anxious to resume conversations. when they reopen the government, we will continue the discussions. >> marc, can i ask you a question? this is the one-year anniversary of the president being sworn into office, how does this white house feel to have a shutdown one year after the president was sworn in? >> well, jim, i think it's disappointing that congress has chosen to shut down the government at one-year anniversary. >> the reflection at all of the leadership coming out it have the white house? >> i think it's a reflection candidly of the position that many of the democrat party find themselves in for this reason, i think that there are many democrat actors who look at all the administration has accomplished in one year and pushed leadership to say we want something to shut down the government, meaning, they look back and say the largest tax cut
11:32 am
in history, they say you repealed individual mandate, they look at the regulatory rollback, they look at what's happened with $7 trillion added to the stock market. they see more circuit court judges ever confirmed in one year. they see a new supreme court justice confirmed. those are things that we look as tremendous progress but i know that they are captive by a small business in their party and they are saying we demand a shutdown. i do think they are related. they look at accomplishments in the last year and all the administration has accomplished and their reaction is because we can't beat them, what we are going to do is shut down the government. >> director mull min vai, just for the benefit of the public, can you go over, i have another substantive question on politics, entitlements -- regardless of how long it lasts, what are the implications? >> if the source of funds is not appropriated, mandatory would be the largest component of that, then the funds will continue to flow, the practical application
11:33 am
of that general rule is that social security checks will go out. >> any other entitlements covered by that? >> if it's not -- generally speaking the answer is, yes. >> you either worked for or you were member of congress when you thought it was a mart of principle when you had political leverage to withhold votes on behalf of principle that were important. do you have sympathy for democrats that they are doing that now because they believe as a matter of principle and might be politics, marc you know this and mick you know this, back when you were doing that, you were accused of being the mall base responding to activist pressure -- >> i might have a lot more sympathy if i hadn't been accused of being an arsonist. keep in mind this is different that in 2013 we were being asked to vote something that vote for something that we did not like.
11:34 am
the funding bill that was put before us in 2013 included funding for obamacare. we object today that and for that reason refused to vote for that funding bill. we have a funding bill today in the senate that senators do not oppose. they support all individual pieces of it. we have talked about chip, we have talked about the delay in cadillac tax, medical device tax, talked about the fact that they are originally okay with cr's, we were asked to vote for something in 2013 that we did not approve of. that's not the circumstance here. here they are simply taking advantage of the situation to insert not only a new topic but marc may have mentioned this earlier, they have introduced another topic, i think you heard mr. schumer talk about earlier today, now they want to talk about bailing union pension funds. that's a new 60 billion-dollar topic that has been interjected. things are out of control in senate side. >> do you believe democrats are
11:35 am
not negotiating in good faith and therefore this can't be resolved? >> you can't -- you can't --i don't think it's fair to get in somebody else's mental state, i don't want to speak to somebody else's good faith. it's extraordinarily difficult to negotiate with people who won't vote for something they like in order to raise a nonfinancial, nn fiscal issue like spending bill. >> mr. trump was critical of president obama handling of the shutdown, he said, you have to get everybody in the room, you to be a leader, the president has to lead u why -- why isn't he following his own advice? >> i guess i would say that's what he is doing. if you look back on the meeting last week, they had complaints about he brought together 20 different members from both the house and the senate in bipartisan fashion, he's continued to remain on the phone, he helped to encourage the bill that got passed on thursday, it was his influence to make sure it passed and following up on major's
11:36 am
question, i think that what's hard for us to understand in other times where there's been an argument over principle, there's nothing in this bill democrats say they object to, it's like a 2-year-old temper tantrum to say i'm going to take my toys and go home because i'm upset about something else. it has nothing to do with the bill. the senate democrats are conducting a 2-year-old temper tantrum in front of all the american people. >> matt. [inaudible] >> there would be a three-week cr offer in the senate, some democrats said they would vote for something that stays long. what's the minimum this white house would take? >> matt, i'm not going to negotiate that in the national press of what we would or wouldn't take hypothetically. the reality is that there's a bill that passed the house the president said he would sign to give us four weeks to continue the daca negotiations, we have now agree today reduce that to three weeks. we think that that is concession in our part, leader mcconnell has offered that, i hope the
11:37 am
democrats come to their senses and support that and keep the government open. >> marc, i know that yesterday -- the administration were saying that they felt pretty confident that we would be able to avoid a shutdown hopefully by tend of today, y'all have been in capitol hill meeting with members, based on those conversations, where are you now? >> i was confident that we would avoid a shutdown because everything in the bill are programs that democrats have advocated for so i was wrong. i'm not going to get to the job of handicapping where i think the chances are today. as i said, i'm hopeful the democrats recognize the harm they are doing to border patrol agents, the harm they are doing to troops overseas and the reality and inconvenience on millions and millions of americans. it's time to get the government open again. >> when we handicap a bill, likelihood of passage is can we get a bill together that people can and will support because what's in the bill is accept to believe them and that's one of
11:38 am
the reasons that marc and i share the opinion that this was going to pass because it's acceptable to democrats. once folks from either party insitterred unrelated topics to negotiation it's impossible to predict. thanks very much. >> thank you. thank you. thank you. >> thank you, marc. kelly: you have been listening to mick mulvaney as well as marc short and all of them talking about the government shutdown, the one thing that rings clear for so many people is there's still finger-pointing as you heard through the questions, earlier today senate minority leader chuck schumer cast dispersions an blame to the president and you saw marc short fire back by saying the democrats are committing in front of the american people a 2-year-old temper tantrum. julie. julie: mark meadows to pick up on this. thank you for talking to us
11:39 am
about this. >> my pleasure. july this julie: this shutdown will look different than under the obama administration, which weponized in 2013. >> well, obviously director mulvaney layed that out pretty clearly but i can tell you we are seeing the difference here in washington, d.c. if you will recall back to the fall of 2013 under the obama administration shutdown, all of a sudden there are barricades early in the morning and yellow tape across even the world war ii memorial and trying to make a political statement. this president is committed to not doing that, if anything he applied real pleasure to conservative members of the freedom caucus over the last 48 to 72 hours to say let's make sure whatever we put in this funding bill that democrats can
11:40 am
have -- cannot have an objection to and you heard director mulvaney and mr. short spelling that out. there were three or four things that we would have loved to have in here and yet we were asked to look at having those legislative initiatives handled separately. so i can tell you that it's going to be very different. it is not good for our country and right now there are 43 democratic senators who need to do some soul searching and see if they're willing to change their vote, hopefully later today or end of monday depending on when that vote is called. swrul july we learned the president will not be travel to go florida, he is committed to having the fixed before the end of the weekend and putting certain pressure obviously on chuck schumer who held a news conference earlier today basically saying he's not budging. so it's not looking good. something important to inform our viewers about government shutdown is that it happens gradually. government agencies are required to implement a series of
11:41 am
protocols to wine things down. this is happening over the weekend. not everything is going to happen instantaneously, no reason for massive alarm, time to turn this around. will democrats do that? >> well, i'm certainly hopeful they will. i have been talking to democrat colleagues to encourage them to do that. i asked them would you prefer if we take out the chip reauthorization, they said, no, they want to include that in. and so i asked them, do they want us to take out the deferral on the cadillac tax and they said no, they want to leave that in. i found nothing in this. this particular point, this shutdown is a democrat-led political shutdown and it's really for a political purpose not really a policy purpose because we are talking about government funding and honestly u holding our military men and
11:42 am
women and veterans hostage is not something that's defensible back home and certainly is something that we've got to address. >> mulvaney says when democrats reopen the government they will be willing to continue negotiations on daca. that is the sticking point here. the 800,000 immigrants call them dreamers who came into the the country when they were children. the democrats are defending them. many people are saying, you're shutting down the government and you're essentially halting the pay of our military, our border agents, putting our border security at risk all over this. chuck schumer held a news conference basically pointing out all the hurt that shutdown can cause, he himself is admitting it halts funding the military, funding children's health, disaster aid, at what point do democrats reopen agreement and agree that the daca negotiations can take place over time? >> well, i can tell you that no one is facing deportation today
11:43 am
because the government is shut down or not shut down. that deadline is march fifth and even at that, you wouldn't face deportation for another three months, so we are not in a crisis situation with this amnesty question. what we are in a crisis situation is with states across the country who run out of funds to help children and health. i find it just an position to hold when you're saying that you're going to continue to fight this fight on behalf of people that you care about when the very group that they're talking about, if it's, indeed, the daca recipients, they are not at risk today or tomorrow or in the weeks to come, that was the reason why we put forth a short-term four weeks continuing resolution so that we could continue to negotiate because we were making good progress. i can tell you all that progress has halted today and it stopped. julie: all right, congressman mark meadows, thank you very much for taking the time, busy

kelly: along with women's marchs across the country today marks one year anniversary of president trump's inauguration. a group of protestors in texas they are holding a rally to call for his impeachment. casey stegall live in dallas with details of the story, stacy. >> hey, kelly, good to see you. this was not just happening in texas, in fact, multiple cities across the country like portland, new orleans, even honolulu, hawaii, for example, things quiet on the plaza out here at dallas city hall now but we have pictures of just not long ago because the rally literally just wrapped up about half hour or so and cleared out
11:49 am
quickly because not too large of a crowd i have to say, that is not observation or opinion, estimated the crowd to be 150 people or so. the impeach trump solidarity march says on social media pages, quote from the moment he took office president trump's refusal to divest business interest placed in direct violation of u.s. constitution. the group goes on the list other reasons and examples whey they believe president trump should be impeached. now we should say that there were counter-protestors out here as well only about 20 or so of them, so about 150 antitrumpers, if you will, about 20 protrumpers who were out here saying that they believe the president is doing good things and they do not understand why folks were gathering here in dallas and the other cities i

mentioned to protest the president who they believe is doing a good job, kelly, thank you. kelly: stacy stegall, thanks, casey. >> of course, immigration, one of the key-sticking points to getting the deal done on spending bill which has halted the government. how far apart are the two sides right now? we will have more on that next. real cheese people know good things come in threes. sargento balanced breaks. natural cheese, dried fruit and nuts. three wholesome ingredients that are never, ever a crowd. sargento balanced breaks. find them in the sargento cheese section. it'sanyone ever haveady! occasional constipation, diarrhea, gas or bloating? she does. help defend against those digestive issues. take phillips' colon health probiotic caps daily... ...with three types of good bacteria. try phillips' colon health probiotic for free. see sunday's paper! the markets change...

kelly: very busy day today as you can imagine, let's bring in david, ceo and cofounder for run for america and political contributor to vanity fair, also here kevin, former adviser to ryan campaign and for paul ryan. gentlemen, we have limited time because all the breaking news. what do you say of bringing two sides together, well, three sides, how you bring them together to find something that's negotiable and a deal to get the government running again, either one of you? >> the first thing they have to do is government open. senator schumer has made a mess
11:55 am
of things, logic is not even making sense at this point. he's against the cr, he thinks that would be worse than, you know, than a shutdown for the military. i mean, that's just nonsensical and nonstarter. they have to get the government back open an get back to the process that they were talking about before principles that they were discussing. that's a big if right now. kelly: that's a big if, indeed. >> look, here is the reality, the republicans have brought the situation entirely upon themselves, they control all three branches of government and the only reason in this mess is because they won't agree to daca fixes which 70% of the country wants to do. kelly: david, let's be clear, they had until march to get this done. >> march is only a couple weeks away. let's be honest. we have been talking about this for months since president trump made the decision on daca. there's really no excuse at this point. the daca legislation has been in existence for years and years.
11:56 am
so it is really no excuse at this point. kelly: kevin, one final word. >> daca was going to get acted on. democrats have to come to the table and get realistic about giving something on four principals, chain migration, the wall. chuck schumer has to get serious about it. kelly: we see right there that's there's still no form of agreement. we will continue to watch developments, thank you for joining us today. sorry for the short break that we've had with you. >> thank you. jell jell all right, that's how it's been. julie: quite interesting day. it's all happens to happen at once. kelly: we have seen it built in the past two weeks, we will be back with more at 4:00. ensure. always be you.
