they taste like a treat, but they clean like a toothbrush. nothing says you care like a milk-bone brushing chew. [ barks ] things congress has time for -- voting to dismantle obamacare more than 50 times. things congress does not have time for? getting it together long enough to actually, you know, pass a bill. >> house republicans are going back to the drawing board after failing to bring their own border bill to a vote. >> i'm not going to point a lot of fingers at the president until we getter own job done. >> when asked why it didn't get done, congressman king said -- >> because of ted cruz. plans to bring two americans battling ebola back to the u.s. does that move put the u.s. population at risk? a 72-hour humanitarian cease-fire held for less than two hours. >> hamas said it's killed israeli soldiers and also claims it's captured one alive.

>> here is what you need to know right now. developing news first. the state department confirming that it is working to evacuate two american missionaries infected with ebola in liberia. dr. kent brantly and nancy writebol, both of the north carolina charity samaritan's purse are in stable but aparticipaapparen apparently grave condition. they are expected to be placed in an isolation unit at atlanta's emory hospital. >> this team has been trauned in how to use the personal protective equipment and to take special precautions to avoid any potential exposures. >> 729 people have died in the worst ebola outbreak in history. doctors without borders released a statement late this morning calling the outbreak in west africa, quote, out of control. and what was supposed to be a three-day cease-fire between israel and hamas collapsed after less than two hours today. israeli forces claimed an twitter that hamas militants

killed two soldiers and captured a third outside rafa. israel hit that area and hit it hard killing 50 people. the white house quickly blamed hamas but secretary of state john kerry calling it, quote, an o outrageous violation of the cease-fire. and here was josh earnest earlier today. >> that would be a rather barbaric violation of the cease-fire agreement. we'd encourage the international community to respond to this and condemn it in the strongest possible terms. >> also today, the senate approved new funding for israel's iron dome defense system. we're going to introduce you to the man behind iron dome coming up later in today's show. back here in the u.s., undocumented immigrants in colorado can now get a driver's license starting today. thousands have already signed up for appointments. they'll have to show proof of residency, identification from their home country and taxpayer history. colorado is one of 11 states to issue driver's licenses for

undocumented immigrants. and congress is doing something unthinkable today. not taking a vacation. legislators were supposed to start a five-week recess last night. instead, they are still in session and expected to vote agone later today on another border plan. this after yesterday's plan imploded, for lack of republican support. how did this happen? here's bloomberg's take. cruz missile. did speaker cruz scuttle house border bill? so what did senator ted cruz do the night before this big border vote? "new york" magazine has this explanation. ted cruz met with a core group of house republicans who vote against every bell and explained that since this is a bill, they should vote against it. joining me, chris van holland. what are you hearing about a potential new border bill to be

voted on later today and will you support it? >> we haven't seen any bill coming out from our republican colleagues but unfortunately everything we hear is the bill is going from bad to worse. and that's because after the house republican caucus plan imploded last night, instead of reaching out in a bipartisan way to try to get an agreement, they actually had a negotiation between the far right and the far, far right. ted cruz. and so ted cruz dictated the terms of this. so now rather than trying to find a way to deal with the kids at the border, the republican plan will actually go back and threat then deportation of people who have been here a long time who originally came as kids through no fault of their own. many of them have gone through our high schools. some have served in our armed forces. instead of deal with the border at the issue, they are seeking to reach back and actually make it much easier to deport people who were brought here as kids a

very long time ago. >> harry reid said he wouldn't consider any of these really increasingly conservative bills. is there some culpability here? some of the republicans that didn't come out to support this last bill said they basically attribute it to that senate refusal to entertain some of these possibilities. take a look at congressman john fleming, for instance. >> nobody in that room believes that this bill that passed would make it into law. so what is the point of having a piece of show legislation? >> so what do you say to those that charge harry reid and senate democrats were exacerbating this gridlock in some way? >> as you know, harry reid tried to bring up a bill for a vote. a bill that would have provided additional resources to help expedite the consideration of these issues at the border. and rather than allow them to even vote on the bill, republicans blocked it. and i want to make clear what harry reid the democratic senate

leader was asking then was simply to allow a vote. he wasn't saying republicans had to vote for or against it. but unfortunately, the democratic process was blocked in the senate and again, here in the house, instead of trying to come up with a reasonable alternative, republicans in the house at the behest of ted cruz have gone even farther to the right. again, not even focused on the situation at the border but trying to reach back and deport people who have been here a very long time who came as kids again through no fault of their own. >> at this point with so much at a standstill we have to hope people an both sides of the aisle reach out across the aisle. congressman van holland. >> that would be great. what's next in this? let's take a look with david frum and jonathan alter. david, bottom line is this. will we see any meaningful immigration reform pass this

year? >> well, it depends on what you think the meaning of immigration reform is. this crisis at the border brings to a head, what do we mean by immigration reform. some of us think that immigration reform means stricter and tighter enforcement of immigration law. to reduce the flow of illegal immigration and unskilled immigration at a time of mass unemployment. and others think it means just the opposite. legalizing illegals and more immigration flows. we use the same word to mean two opposite things no wonder we're at loggerheads. >> no wan can agree what it is or have a desire to have this political stalemate end. is this something the democrats are perpetuating for political gain? certainly they're out there milking it for gain. >> no. they passed a bill in the senate in june of last year. they sent it over to the house and couldn't even get a vote on it. now you have something that has almost no precedent that i can think of in american history, which is a member of the senate,

going over to the house side and essentially dictating terms to the house republican caucus. usually the house and senate can't stand each other. ted cruz, by the way, born in canada, child of immigrants, and what he wants is us to be as inhumane as possible toward, say, 17-year-old latino kid who came to the country as a toddler in the case of this movie that's come out, beat mit in a robotics contest. he wants to throw that guy over the -- we need to keep our eye on the human cost here. these are real human lives that we're talking about. we're not just talking about legislative shenanigans and whether something gets brought up for a vote. we're talking about human beings who are hurt and a united states senator who has seized power in

the other chamber, which is astonishing. >> it's a humanitarian crisis. one thing that makes it so wrenching that we cannot seem to get it together to deal with it. eric cantor announced he's resigning from congress altogether in august. many felt he lost his primary because he was somewhat maybe more than his colleagues willing to come to the table on immigration reform. does his being out of the picture hurt the chances of any reform, however we define it? >> republicans are deeply convinced it was the promise of an amnesty for minors. that promise as distorted through rumor and purported by these human traffickers. it was that promise by the president and some democrats that triggered this surge of minors at the border. and so the republicans view -- while the incentive to try to rush the border remains, this problem is not going to be fixed. and the president's very large request for money a while ago,

billions of dollars, that was intended to house these minors in the united states almost indefinitely, thus guaranteeing that many if not most of them, would end up staying. and this rush to the border would work. >> let's be clear on what has happened here. the president made a $3.7 billion request. the republicans had a $659 million request -- response to that. and even that can't go through. in other words, the republican position is to do nothing, absolutely nothing, until september at the earliest, about this humanitarian crisis. >> and there seems to be self-sabotage happening here. you mentioned ted cruz. how unusual is it for that kind of self-sabotage to come from the senate to the house within a party itself? >> highly unusual. congressman peter king who is a republican was asking, along with a number of his more moderate colleagues, who elected

ted cruzz our speaker. they know this is hurting them. the republicans do not want to go home in this recess and say they did absolutely nothing about an immigration crisis at the border. >> while we have david here, i have to ask before we part ways, we're almost out of time. you've been in the headlines for that tweet calling some photos of -- fake. criticizing your apology, one of the big critiques is claim iing what is your sfons that? >> none of that is true. adam wein stein and gawker linked to a site co-founded by one of the biggest supporters of hamas. i think that i lost my temper in the twitter exchange and said something that wasn't supported by the evidence but people need to understand that the contrivance of images has been a

strategic tool in the campaign against israel. and that remains true. just the other day the -- >> do you regret linking to zombie -- >> i linked it as a for instance to say this is a place they have a lot of photographs. a lot of this material dates back to 2006 and it's hard to find good images. there are lots of other places where without the photographs you can see other people reading the same thing. if your source is electronic intefadeh and if you as gawker, the place that is famous for publishing brett favre's penis shots and you are saying we're going to be the arbitters of journalistic responsibility, that is bull. >> thank you for talking about that so frankly. up next, the cia is caught in a lie. is it now at all-out war with the senate? a top intelligence insider is going to explain what's next after the break. est... while a body in motion tends to stay in motion.

as far as the allegations of, you know, cia hacking into senate computers, nothing could be further from the truth. we wouldn't do that. >> except they did do that. though cia is now playing cleanup today after admitting to spying on senate staffers investigating them. say director john brennan was so adamant in his denials of that charge back in march he warned lawmakers would regret accusing him of wrongdoing according to "the washington post." now the cia's own innternal review says brennan was, at best, mistaken. he's apologized to dianne feinstein and saxby chandler. but that's too late for some. they are calling for brennan to resign. so what's next for brennan and

what's next for america's beleaguered intelligence community? joining us now, ambassador john negropon negroponte. he was also the nation's first director of national intelligence. thank you for being here, sir. you were a top u.s. intelligence official as we mentioned under president bush most recently. do you think john brennan was being dishonest or just ill informed? >> well, you know, i obviously, can't be certain. i haven't seen all the documents. i haven't read the inspector general's report. but let me just say this personally based on my own experience that i have the absolutely highest regard for john brennan. he's a distinguished career intelligence professional. he served many different administrations, and i know he also has the confidence of the president of the united states. of course, they are going to have to get to the bottom of all of this, and people are going to be looking into it. and i don't know exactly what's

going to happen. one thing i would suggest is that we try to if we can, i know it's hard when talking to the press to get this out of the public eye. you know, it's the old saying about you shouldn't wash dirty linen in public. i think that's what's happening. >> you don't think that in some ways more sunlight is needed here, that this came from a surplus of secrecy about this kind of behavior? >> well, look. you are talking about two completely different cultures. the kultsu uculture of the cong the media which believes in the suddenlight and an intelligence community used to operating in secrecy. as long as these issues are discussed and thrashed out between the intelligence community and the congress, even if that's done behind closed doors, i think that would be the preferable way of doing it, if at all possible. >> we mentioned earlier back in march brennan really went hard on this. he told lawmakers they'd regret accusations of wrongdoing

against the cia. senator lindsey graham said in those allegations turned out to be true, people should go to jail. that was an exact quote from him. is he right about that at all? >> i think this is something -- mr. brennan has got some explaining to do. i'd be the first to acknowledge that. whether it explains it to the media or explains it to the congress. obviously, the next step, an explanation is called for, absolutely. >> the cia has something of a checkered history at this point. wrong on iraqi weapons of mass destruction intelligence. toppled a democratically elected governor in iran which led to the revolution of 1969 -- >> that was 61 years ago. >> even the president giving weapons to islamic fighters and that had a definite link to 9/11. >> it got the russians out of afghanistan. >> with a record like that in general, what's the argument for keeping the agency around in its current form. it seems so embattled at this point. >> it may be, and that's the story of the day and maybe of

the week. but i've -- i was in public service for 44 years. i was an ambassador to five different places. i had cia station chiefs working with or for me in every one of those situations. plus as you mentioned, having run the dni. i don't think there's a better intelligence service in the world, both an the collection side and the analytics side. these are really top notch, professionals. and i would go to bat for them any time. >> look, i have to say on a personal note in my own experience working with people in the intelligence community, i feel obligated to say the same. these are fine individuals serving their countries. i hope we can get to a point where our intelligence apparatus isn't beleaguered in this way. while i have you here, i want to ask about your experience in honduras. you were the former u.s. ambassador to that country. you have five adopted children from honduras, i believe. that's a big feeder country for these young people crossing our borders creating this border crisis. what needs to change in our

immigration policies to fix that? >> well, it's a tragic situation, as we all know. it isn't only the immigration policy. i think it's a question of the policy towards central america as a whole, particularly the northern tier. that is to say, guatemala, el salvador and honduras. these countries combined, i think, get less than 2% of american foreign aid. we're giving hundreds of millions of dollars to countries much farther from the united states. even billions when what we give to central america is a pittance. i think the time has come for us to think long and hard about an overall strategy for building up the economies of those countries. perhaps we can even work with the country of mexico which is also immediately affected by this situation. so that's one point. on immigration, this is a really tough, tough situation. and, of course, a lot of these

children who come up actually have relatives in the united states. >> right. >> so i think this just highlights the importance of reaching some kind of resolutions on the issue of immigration reform. anything short of immigration reform is going to be a palliative. i recognize we're not going to have reform before the congress adjourns. but i think the sooner we get a comprehensive economic reform, the better. >> thank you so much, ambassador negroponte. appreciate your insights on this. >> i appreciate the opportunity. coming up, we want to hear from you on what we are not covering. we're opening our underreported call out this week. that's when we come back.

with us now. what more can you tell us about this missing soldier? >> well, ronan, we know there's an ongoing military operation continues in the city of rafa in the southern part of the gaza strip. palestinian medical sources, hamas officials, are describing what is happening there as a massacre. according to health officials, the death toll as a result from the ongoing operation stands at 62 people killed. more than 300 yard and thousain. now the israeli military said that it has launched a rescue operation to try and contain and even recover or rescue the soldier they say was abducted by militants shortly after the cease-fire came in place. as you are suggesting, there are two narratives. the israeli military is saying a cease-fire had come into effect when its soldiers came under attack leading to the abduction

of one of the soldiers and the killing two of others. also spokespersons for hamas have been saying the narrative is different. what happened is as israel tried to advance after the cease-fire to attract the brigade, the military wing of hamas was forced to respond and as a result, that is what led to today's altercation that israel says led to the killing of those soldiers. >> we've just been looking at incredible pictures of the humanitarian devastation of people sobbing in hospitals. you actually posted a maybe more relatable set of images. a beach in gaza during the cease-fire with kids emerging to play for the first time and two hours later when the fighting resumed, that beach eerily empty. can you tell us about the toll on civilians? >> in the morning when people woke up to the news there was a cease-fire in place there was a sigh of relief. no doubt about it. a lot of particularly in some of the nauseighborhoods and areas they've been evacuated have begun to return.

and actually started to try and enjoy things like the beach. shortly as the news came out there was a breakdown of the cease-fire, people quickly left. in terms of humanitarian suffering that's happening in a place like rafa, it's difficult to get to. journalists are having a hard time getting to some of the front lines. most of the information is from palestinian health officials. they say they are overwhelmed by the number of casualties they are receiving. also rafa hospital is not as big as the shifa hospital here in gaza. there's a shortage of blood and medicine as a result of that. a lot of the testimonies of people coming out, eyewitnesses, are saying that there's a type of indiscriminate shelling taking place. people are just totally overwhelmed by the fear of the attacks they are forced to leave their homes and really have nowhere to go. the united nations just a few days ago warned they had reached a breaking point. they simply don't have any more capacity to take on more than the 200,000 people they've

already taken in. >> ayman mohyeldin from gaza, thank you. stay safe out there. the sheer scope of this carnage you just saw it is causing some americans to reconsider what it means right now to be pro-israel. columnists like jonathan shave and ezra klein all making cases similar to that. cohen saying no argument, no palestinian outrauj or subt subterfuge can gloss over jewish failure killing in those numbers. breeding contempt of the powerful for the o'pressed is a betrayal of the zionism in which i still believe. that's a powerful piece. i recommend you all look tat. we'll have it up on our website. in general, are we reaching a tipping point in public support for israel? joining us is one of those voices wrestling with this issue. ezra klein, msnbc policy analyst and the man you justice saw,

aaron david miller. he's at the woodrow wilson center and an author who has advised six secretaries of state an the middle east. i'll start with you, ezra. one of the columnists calls himself less sympathetic to israel than before and adds i recognize the facts change and i've changed my mind. what facts have changed? >> i don't want to speak for jonathan. i think jonathan should in his own column. my column, the piece i wrote, a more personal piece than what i usually right is not being less pro-israel but pessimism. israel's approach here, even if it is short-term rational for security is a long-term suicidal. long-term is in a very daurgnges structural position. it's a tiny sliver of land that holds 6 million jews and is surrounded on all sides by hostile populations. and long-term security is only ever going to come from a peace deal. the peace movement in israel has largely collapsed. and the brutality of the current

reprisals for hamas' actions are hurting its public support around the world but also radicalizing another generation of palestinian -- of young palestinians. and it should be said, even when we're not in as extreme a moment as we are now, even going back a couple months or even a year when you are just dealing with the occupation in the west bank and blockade in gaza, you are still putting a lot of people rnd a terribly oppressed life. daily humiliations, a lot of hopelessness and that's a place where terrorism breeds and prosp prospers. >> you specifically talk about those settlements in the west bank. morally indefensible but also deeply counterproductive. what will it take to get israel to free settlements? >> i have absolutely no idea. i don't want to pontificate on this. aaron would know much better than i would. there has been a slowdown under netanyahu. there's been ab angry fight between the obama administration

and israel early an. but the building of the settlements and netanyahu wanted these back as part of talks earlier in the year. the building of settlements, every single person that moves into a settlement is one more constituent that makes a peace deal harder. >> it seems apaurparent when yo look at this latest effort to create a peace deal. it seems counterproductive at this point. one other interesting facet on this is israeli public opinion. one recent poll showed that 95% of jewish israelis say the operation in gaza is justified still. do you think that the tempering of views on israel's support in the states has any parallel within israel or does this require being as distant as we are from the conflict? >> look. the high degree of support for this operation flows from several realities. number one, iron dome has effectively secured the home

front. you have three civilian fatalities from rockets. you have minimal economic damage. you have the faa suspended flights into ben gurian which was a stunner and shocker. the important birthright program which the jewish community takes great pride in. i understand dropped tel aviv from its itinerary. there's all of that. effect live, the home front that most israelis have been sheltered and insulated from this conflict. so that's reason one for the high degree of support. second, i suspect that there is -- it may not be a rational reaction, but i suspect there is a real sense that having watched the two previous operations ' s and '12 and the lebanon war in

'06 that there's a sense that they don't want another deadlock. they want a determinative, conclusive ending. now in an asymmetrical war, they're not going to get that. but i think there is that sense. international pressure, it seems to me, plays only a minor role in effecting a vast majority of the public and the political elite at a time like this. the real problem for a breakdown of support in israel is if current government decides that it has to truly move into gaza in a massive way in an effort to destroy hamas as an organization, kill off of its leaders. i think you have a very risk averse prime munsteoney ministe. >> there seems to be such a trend of people on the hill redoubling their support of israel at a time when so many

intellectuals such as yourself are doing the opposite. the daily news sums it up with this headline. u.s. lawmakers falling all over themselves to throw full support behind israel. and in a recent daily beast column, keith ellison, the congressman first muslim american congressman in congress said, look, man, i'm a politician with multiple constituencies. why should i alienate one just so that you can write a story? when he was ambushed with questions about this. it seems like there's just not space for people to be honest about israel an the hill. do you agree with that assessment? >> i think the question of what being honest about israel means. people have a lot of different opinions on what's justified and what's not. you saw a real strengthening of support. kerry released a strong statement for them today. and part of it is what hamas is doing and what it appears to have done during the cease-fire is so unbelievably appalling. one recent casualty rates are so high is hamas fires rockets from near civilian centers. and the fact a cease-fire that america puts potential political

capital behind got broken and hamas killed and captured one israeli -- likely captured one israeli soldier. that infuriated america. i also think within congress there's generally speaking whatever is going to happen in terms of opinion on israel among elected officials, the time that that happens is not in the middle of conflict. it's not sort of when they feel israel needs their help most. whether there will be any long-term changes in sort of america's efforts to diplomatically pressure israel i would expect to see anything that happens on that after the cessation of hostilities. >> we'll have to see if the rhetoric echos in the actual defense policy and how much we are giving israel in terms of resources. is it going to be more resources or more and more and more resources? we're going to look at that coming up next. a deep dive an the iron dome system. you won't want to miss that. aaron and ezra, thank you. appreciate it. we are looking at that state of the art iron dome missile

defense system has been put to the test in the latest round of fight with hamas. vocativ sat down with the man who created urine dome. >> create a dome around the city, a protected area that anything that penetrate the dome would be killed. the idea was invented in the early stages of 2004-'05. >> at the time, missile attacks out of gaza were terrorizing the citizens of southern israel. >> people get killed. it is now our obligation to find a solution. >> a mobile anti-rocket system with the ability to detect and intercept incoming rockets in midair. developing this technology would be costly. he went to the israeli government for funding. >> first response was no. can it be done?

took me about two years to convince everyone to get the money needed to develop it in production. it is enormous. there's nothing like it in the world. no other missile system. >> iron dome allows residents across israel to go about their daily lives with a reasonable level of normalcy. >> many of them are too confident. iron dome is like fireworks. it's not 100%, you know, fool-proof, but, still, saves lives. >> and with the move to send more defense resources to israel, heating up on the hill right now, we're going to see more of that technology. thank you to our partners at vocativ for that report. this week's call to action draws to a close with a look at

a new program in hawaii that could be a game changer in helping catch those kids in foster care before they fall through the cracks. it's provocative, though. you'll not want to miss it. she needed a good meal and a good family. so we gave her purina cat chow complete. it's great because it has the four cornerstones of nutrition. everything a cat needs for the first step to a healthy, happy life. purina cat chow complete. share your rescue story and join us in building better lives. one rescue at a time.

machines will be sprayed to be made. and making something stronger... will mean making it lighter. one day, factories will work with the cloud. one day... is today.

once you're in the system, people just give up hope on you. like, oh, you're foster care. you have so many different stereotypes thrown at you. >> instead of, like, viewing someone in foster cares as, oh, something's wrong with them, no, something is wrong with the person who raised them. >> when i aged out, i aged out with no health sthurinsurance. i aged out without an apartment. i have somewhere to live, thankfully, but it's really ridiculous. no one's checking -- like, no one keeping tabs on kids. a lot of people leave the system and never look back. >> stories of a foster care system helping young people stay alive too often only to send them to the streets or even to prison. one study showing after ageing out, like they talked about, 60%

of young men were convicted of a crime. all weekend our call to action, we have been looking at this problem. what about a solution? hawaii has just launched a new program allowing young people to stay in care until they're 21 years old. supporters say it's a game changer. critics say that extra time could build dependency. so is it working? i'm joined by the director of hawaii's department of human services. thank you for being here. tell us about your experience of ageing out. would more time have helped? >> i actually had a great transition out of foster care. i believe it is because i had a great support system from my former foster parents. even after ageing out of foster care at 18 1/2, i was able to live with my foster parents,

with my daughter who was 2 years old at the time. however, not all youth ageing out of the foster care have that option. >> and patricia, tell us about this program and what it does. >> well, it's called moving forward together. essentially, its core components are youth who age out of foster care and become young adults can voluntarily join the program. the requirements are stringent but not too stringent. it's a nice balance. youth either need to be engaged in employment part time, enrolled in school, completing a ged, or otherwise disabled. so we're very excited about this progr program. we hope it builds a safe transition for our young adults as they age. >> clearly what makes this smart is it's not a free for all. it requires these incentives to build independent skills. what do you say to people who

still think it's too long in the system, they don't want their taxpayer dollars going to that? >> oh, i think that's a short-sighted view. we know that children who age out of the system without support are more likely to become pregnant, more likely to have criminal records, more likely to be homeless. and the cost of supporting those young adults is far greater than the cost of this particular program with better long-term results, we hope, for our young adults. >> the numbers on this are staggering. there are 397,000 children in foster care right now. those are people we've been profiling all week. clarabell said her biggest fear is ending up on the streets with nothing. what would you say to her and others ageing out of the system? >> i would say to reach out, to build your own social capital

network. social capital is connections, healthy life-long connections with supportive adults in your life. and that can be in the area of school, peers, community, and family. and we believe that if you have social capital, you can fare so much better in life. >> patricia, noi, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> and for this week's call to action, remember, we are asking you to support hr-4058. that is a bill designed to extend some of those innovations around the country. add your signature, urging the senate to pass that bill and improve opportunities for youth in foster care. it's already passed the house. let the senate know they need to focus on this too. we'll be keeping track of that. that wraps things up. thank you all for joining me. we are going to head to a short break. after that, "the reid report" is up next today with my colleague krystal ball. you make a great team.

it's been that way since the day you met.

hello, earn. i'm krystal ball in for joy reid, and this is "the reid report." we are following three fast-moving stories today. john boehner and his caucus are still in d.c. trying to get on the same page with a border bill before they head off home to recess. then to gaza, where a

72-hour cease-fire is violated as soon as it begins. we'll have live reports from gaza and from jerusalem. and a hospital in atlanta is getting ready for the arrival of an ebola patient who will receive treatment there. we begin, though, with some old-fashioned capitol hill harm twisting, both the figurative and literal kind. we see if they can pass what is now a $694 million immigration and border bill before the august recess. after leaders had to pull the original bill from the floor, reports do now indicate that speaker john boehner and his team may have wooed the once unwooable. >> this bill is so different from the bill yesterday until today that we effectively gutted yesterday's bill. this is a brand new bill. >> and the price of a bill many believe is dead on arrival in the senate? well, it's a second bill also

believed to be dead on arrival. that one dealing with the president's deferred action for childhood arrivals program. tension is so high that nbc's frank thorp filmed this vine thursday of gop rep donald young twisting the arm of a house aide who was trying to direct him to use a different door to enter a gop conference meeting. congressman young has since apologized. luke russert joins me live from capitol hill. luke, it is looking like they might have arrived at a deal. then again, we thought that yesterday too. >> well, that's right, krystal. however, why house gop leadership aides have more confidence today is just like the individuals you showed. folks like steve king, lui luis gohmert. what's it going to look like later today? the house is going to do two votes. they're going to have one vote on a
