what happens when your paychecks stop? because everyone has retirement questions. ameriprise created the exclusive confident retirement approach. to get the real answers you need. start building your confident retirement today. huh, fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. everybody knows that. well, did you know words really can hurt you? what...? jesse don't go! jesse...no! i'm sorry daisy, but i'm a loner. and a loner gotta be alone. heee yawww! geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more. jesse? hello, everyone welcome to "the reid report." developing now on capitol hill, the clock is ticking and the deadline to fund the department

of homeland security runs out at midnight. and right now lawmakers are racing to diffuse a crisis of their own making. for its part the senate voted 68-31 to pass a so-called clean bill to fund the dhs bill clean meaning it is free of provisions to block the president's action on immigration. and in the house, the lawmakers are proposing a stop-gap measure to fund the department for three weeks, because why do today what you can put off for three weeks but can john boehner round up enough republican votes. >> let us have three weeks and go to conference like we're supposed to and see if we cannot work out the differences we have between the two bodies. now, how unreasonable is this? >> i therefore, madam speaker, urge you against the bill. >> mr. speaker, let your republicans go and let them come to the floor and let them vote

on a clean bill. >> nbc's luke russert joins me life from capitol hill. this does seem like we're having this conversation like every day. it is like groundhog day. are we any closer to a resolution. we have the clean vote bill and are we closer to wrapping this whole thing up? >> reporter: well, joy, there is momentum last night. some of speaker boehners critics saying they were okay with the three-week stop gap measure and that enthusiasm carried over into this morning. the rule vote the parliamentary vote that had to go forward to get on the floor, that had north of 342 republicans and that seems to go okay and swell. then about an hour ago we have what we call the blue screen of death here on capitol hill the subject -- the house is in recess subject tole call -- subject to the call of the chair which is subject to oh, darn it we don't have the votes. so i spoke to some gop leadership aids and they believe

they should be okay. the quote was, we're not sweating yet. but who knows. yeah. >> hold on for one second. let's listen to nancy pelosi speaking live on this subject right now. >> they could take up the bill and send it to the president immediately. instead i'm going to yield to our distinguished whip for describing the sequenceyingeing the bills on the floor and the bills not in furtherance of solving the problem. the security of our country is to protect and defend. there is already uncertainty in the world without projecting more uncertainty as to when and how we're defending our security. i'm saying to mr. speaker, get a grip and get a grip on the possibilities that are here. we can bring the bill to the floor and let the members vote on both and send one to the

president, the other to the senate and everyone will have been able to express himself or herself on how we protect the american people. but instead, because of the course of action he's chosen we will be limited. and i'm going to yield to our distinguished whip on that score. but really it is type to end this. this is drip drip drip drip of a few weeks from december to january and now to february and into march. a whole quarter of uncertainty in -- in the time of this. and remember that this funding they have on a continued resolution to go forward until march 19th or whatever it is is money at the rate of last year's spending of funding. last year's funding. it is last year's funding that does not meet this year's threats. so it -- for every reason we

should take up the senate bill sand go forward. and i lead to our distinguished whip. >> and we have steny hoyer taking the mic. you heard house minority leader nancy pelosi calling the dip -- drip, drip drip. and luke you are there. >> reporter: and what she is doing is giving republicans cover because they are having problem getting to 218ond three-week -- on the three week bill. and chuck schumer said he would support and get this through. but what nancy pelosi did is a smart political move. she said let us vote on the full year-long department of homeland security security bill and the three week one and see which one goes forward because she knows that the full funding bill on the floor would pass and the president would sign it into law. either way, we are still at square one, joy, to question

whether or not john boehner will find these votes. more reactions to the isis infamous spokesperson. new pictures of jihadi john showing emwazi as a child, believed to be the man in the grossesque isis videos that show the execution hostages the family of -- the families are not impressed. >> if it weren't for him, it would be someone else. >> and the president was asked by a local news reporter and weighed in. >> look, any time any american is harmed anywhere the world, the united states government is going to be going after that person. >> and richard engel joins me now from istanbul.

so does the unmasking mean that the intelligence is closer to finding his location or other main members of isis? >> reporter: i don't think so. intelligence agencies knew who he was for sometime now. it was the media and the public at large who didn't know his name. he's still on a -- he's still wanted as all of the top al qaeda and isis members are. there is an air campaign going on. but no i don't think this brings us any close. what it might do is de-mystify him a little bit. his main role jihad john his main purpose, was to be an object of terror to frighten the world. there in his ski mask holding his knife, threatening the west and care yig out acts -- carrying out acts of extreme brutality. it is a stark contrast of the pictures of a school boy and of a college student. they are a lot less terrifying.

so the only impact is de-mystifying this murder. richard engel, thank you so much. meanwhile here in the states c-pac has been dominated by foreign policy issues and of course by criticism of president obama's national security policies. but it was the mention of jeb bush today and this reaction that caught our attention. take a listen. >> by the way, jeb bush any supporters? >> perry bacon joins me now from c-pac in national harbor maryland. perry, the perception if you look at the you tube videos and the reactions in that video, jeb bush is not getting a warm resection there at c-pac, would that be accurate? >> it would be. he's yet to come on stage, but in about 20 minutes here. what we've seen so far is people on stage have been critical of him. laura ingle, a talk show host,

said on stage to applause jeb and hillary should run the same ticket because they have the same views on policy and people applauded that loudly. there were a lot of rand paul and scott walker supporters and there is a sense that people are looking for anybody but jeb. >> indeed. and so if jeb bush is not getting a warm reception, i saw scott walker getting thunderous applause? is he the person drawing the most attention from the members at c-pac or is there somebody else capturing the imagination of the participants? >> i would name two people. first of all four of the last five -- they have a straw poll at this event which has very little value ultimately but the straw polls have shown the last four or five times ron or rand paul have won. so the pauls are popular in the young libertarian proud but walker received thunderous applause and shouting of run,

scott, run, so he is popular. >> he's had a few stumbles and he was overseas with strange answers and some dodging of important issues that come up in the presidential race. is there a people that people are giving why they like him so much? >> the union stuff. like the period. like how he took him -- took on the unions. it is kind of a fox news audience and walker more than bush speaks to that conservatism. >> thank you perry. >> thank you for having me on your show. thanks for having me on your show all of this time. >> pbj, thank you. and now sad news for the legion of star trek fans leonard nimoy is dead at the age of 83. his family confirmed his death to the a.p. and the new york times saying the cause of death

was chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. his fame as an actor which includes a stint in the original mission impossible and tv and as the host of tv's in search of extended to directing where he helmed two of the star trek films and three men as a baby. william shatner said i loved him like a brother. we will miss his humor and talent and his capacity to love. he was rushed to the hospital with chest pains and delivered his final message via twitter. a life is like a garden perfect moments cannot always be had. live long and prosper. and joining me george takei. could you share your feelings it. was a shock to hear about his passing today. if you could share your thoughts? >> well i'm here in boston at

boston logan airport. and it seems ironic that i should learn of his passing here in his home town his birthplace. leonard was beloved by millions of fans all over this planet so that makes it a very special experience for us who got to work with him as actors. he was a brilliant actor. but he also believed in working collaboratively. he analyzed the scene and he knew the importance of every character in making that scene work. he was a gifted analyst and i think that helped him be a good director because he knew all of us personally. he was able to communicate with us in shorthand and give us our

free rein and he reined us in where he felt it was too much or not enough. but he had this remarkable ability. and he was very supportive of all of us. and i remember he did equs on broadway and i did it on small theater in los angeles and knowing he played that brilliantly on broadway and when he came back stage, i said how did i do leonard and he smiled and he said you were better, obviously that wasn't true. but when i do the musical allegiance in san diego, at the old grove theater, again, we drove all the way down to san diego to give me a congrattory hug. he was a dear friend and a very

supportive colleague and we're going to miss him deeply. he had that vulcan greeting live long and prosper and he will indeed live long with all of us and his memory will prosper. >> indeed. absolutely. and thank you so much actor takei for sharing those deeply personal remembrances. my condolences to you for your loss. >> thank you very much. still ahead on the dhs funding fight of chicken and with john boehner and marsha fudge will join me. >> and then eric holder's exit interview. >> what would you like people to say about eric holder's legacy in the department of justice? >> that he was unafraid to speak hard truths that he was willing to endure criticism to try to do the right thing. and that at the end of the day,

he energized a justice department that he found in tatters when he got here. >> nbc's pete williams joins me next. let me talk to you about retirement. a 401(k) is the most sound way to go. let's talk asset allocation. sure. you seem knowledgeable professional. i'm actually a dj. [ dance music plays ] woman: [laughs] no way! that really is you? if they're not a cfp pro you just don't know. cfp -- work with the highest standard. like, literally ran into him.

governor let me -- every article i have read talks about you and a divide with the conservative movement. >> you heard cheers as jeb bush takes the stage at the c-pac and there he is with fox news host sean hannity, all of the

would-be potential 2016 contenders are speaking and showing them off at c-pac to try to gain the support of the most conservative members of the republican party. you see jeb bush there beginning to take some questions. and getting a good reception after some not-so-warm reception when his name was mentioned earlier on at the conference. let's listen on more. >> so for those children of illegal immigrants that weren't citizens. [ booing ] >> wait. hang on. i want to give you an opportunity to address that. >> on immigration -- i wrote a book about this. instead of people pining about what i believe. read the book. it is called immigration wars. you can get it on amazon for probably $1.99 and it is probably discounted and i talk about talking about enforcing the borders for national security and public health purposes an the rule of law. first and foremost we do. >> that and then narrow family

petitions so it is the same as any other country, spouse and minor children not this broad spouse and minor children and parents that crowds out what we need which is economic-driven immigrants, those that want to come here and work and invest in their dreams in this country and create opportunities for all of us and that is what we need to get to. and so as a -- and the plan also included a path to legal stal us-- status. and i have not seen anybody -- and i know there is disagreement here and everybody is in disagreement, and i understand. i was in miami this morning it was 70 degrees. but we should -- we should give legal status where they work and don't break the law and learn

english and make a contribution to our society. >> a lot of reaction. let me do a follow-up. we had senator rubio, a friend of yours from florida and i asked him the same question. we hear about spending cut and tax increases and we get the tax increase but never the spending cut. the congress has tried comprehensive immigration reform and it has failed. we now have a crisis going on with the department of homeland security the president and executive orders. my question is why not secure the borders first once it is verified secured first. >> let's do it. let's do it man. >> why not talk about. >> so instead of talking about a political argument about that the president used a authority he didn't have and there is nothing that holds back the republicans to put together a comprehensive plan to do. >> that but the simple fact is

this nation needs to start growing at a far faster rate than it is today. we have to be young and dynamic and aspirational again for the young people in this room to get a job and be aspirational and change the subject to high sustained immigration growth. >> i don't want to spend all of my time on immigration growth. >> jeb bush sparring with the crowd at c-pac. very interesting, showing his ability to debate a little bit on the issue of immigration. some jeers but also some cheers when jeb bush mentioned there isn't going to be a deportation of 11 million people in the country without documents and laying out his ideas and defending himself on a subject that will surely loom large should he run for president from 2016. we'll keep watching this for you and keep you up to date on this and other developments when we come back. ♪ ♪ 800,000 hours of supercomputing time 3 million lines of code,

signed into law this last year. >> let me ask you the second biggest issue -- >> not by me. >> when you read about governor jeb bush is the issue of common core. it was interesting, i didn't know until i was researching you, you were the first governor to institute vouchers in the country, it was eventually overruled by the supreme court of florida. [ applause ] >> but you were the first governor. >> jeb bush speaking at cpac and he is being interviewed by sean hannity and at some points being supported and at some points not so much. talking about immigration and some contention back and forth and some cheering and some boos as well and talking about the republican-controlled congress should go ahead and fund the department of homeland security. he's now talking about common core, another issue that is a hot one, disliked by core conservatives, jeb bush having been very supportive in terms of education and also now talking

about his long-time support of vouchers, something for which he fought with the florida supreme. and we're keeping a look at cpac. but we're also looking at the funding of the dhs. and if a bill passes the house, the senate is expected to quickly approve it. but if democrats block the conference committee as they promised we could be right back here where we started next month. the outgoing attorney general eric holder is speaking out to tell piece williams that the federal standards for civil rights are too high and he wants congress to change that. >> i think the standard is too high. there is a better way in which we can have federal involvement in these kinds of matters to allow the federal government to

be a better backstop in examining these cases. >> prime minister benjamin netanyahu is defending his upcoming speech before congress and he said his speech about the nuclear threat because iran's ruler, quote, calls for the destruction of the jewish state and they plan on doing it with nuclear weapons. congresswoman margaret mud is from the congressional black caucus and thank you for being here. >> pleasure. >> and i want to go through the three issues quickly starting with dhs. there does seem to be movement taking place in the house of representatives. are you confident as a member of the house, that a funding bill a short-term funding little about pass before the deadline tonight? >> joy, i'm very confident something is going to pass tonight. >> the senatorthe senate has gone -- the senate has gone home. and they said they will pass a spending bill. i don't know it is short-term or long-term, which is the same thing that the senate passed

this morning and that is my guess, it will be a long-term and not a short-term bill. >> does john boehner have the strength to pass a bill and still insisting it on being a majority of the majority or will he have to come to the democrats? >> i believe he will have to come to us. there is no question in my mind that the reason they have a delay today is because they don't have enough votes to pass it because i believe we'll take part in dhs getting passed today. >> and i want to ask you about the benjamin netanyahu addressing the congress and many led the charge to stay away -- i know it is not a boycott but stay ago way from the -- staying away from the speech. and do you believe it is harmless to the -- long-term harmful to the relationships. >> i think it is long-term.

there is way this has has been suppose pieted -- supported by this house and i think it is a bad calculated move on behalf of netanyahu and boehner at a time when we are trying to negotiate a deal. i think it is a poor timing and ill-planned and a huge mistake. >> and lastly eric holder believes the standard for bringing a federal civil rights prosecution are tie high and congress should change the law. what do you make of that? >> i think he's absolutely right. i think until we get a handle on how we can address issues like a ferguson like cleveland and taye done and some of the-- dayton and others we'll find ourselves where we are now, with our hands tied. >> and on that matter we do know the senate will consider the other body across the road

loretta leverageynch, she had a clean way to go through but she is still being held to things like immigration and property seizures. do you expect from the outside looking in because it is the senate that she will sail through when her nomination comes forward? >> i believe her nomination will pass because i think there are enough people in the senate who understand her qualifications and her real temperament to be the attorney general of the united states. i do believe she will pass. i just hope it is sooner rather than later. >> congressman marsha fudge. >> can i say before i go. you are the best. you a constant professional and a gifted journalist and great person. god bless. >> and i would say the same before you. you are an outstanding person and it is great in getting to know you. thank you, congresswoman, i appreciate it. and things break the internet. a black and white llama or a

it is time for the tweeple and today you are still buzzing about all of that llama drama that took over social media. as these black and white creatures ran the streets, they ran right into your hearts. and last night on all-in jack hannah explains why he wasn't scared. >> what i worried was about all of the traffic and the cars and what would happen if the animals got hurt. but i found out something several hours ago, they signed up for llama care. >> and now the debate raging over the hash tag the dress. you are going crazy over whether it is white and gold or black and blue, which it is. and according to your tweets white and gold has a big lead but some of are you debunking this with pics from the

retailer's website that says it is blue. you are throwing down the gaunt gauntlet gauntlet my husband said it is white and gold and i was a divorce on irreconcilable differences. >> and now a professor and from ceo health and dr. common sense, and all right, doctor i'm exhausted, is the dress black and blue or white and green or why can't people tell the difference. >> i'll get philosophical on you. your perception is your own reality. i'll give you the real deal and the common sense. the light enters the lens of the eye and you have rods and cones to decide if you will see color or more light. so what sths about, is the light

on the picture and the bag ground in which the picture sitting. so it actually -- to some people, when they process it in their brain it trying to block out the light so that they only see the blue. and some people are trying to absorb the light and they only see the white. so when i say that to you, that is the science answer. but let's do it in doctor common sense terms. >> please please. >> everybody has been in a place where -- where a dress was one color or a person was lighter or even on those magazine covers where they say somebody is lighter or darker, it is the based on the way or the object is lit and the background in which they are lit. so the biggest issue, is it blue or black or white, is it gold it's actually all colors based on what you see and your brain is processing at the particular time. so i try to make it as common sense as possible. but that is really the case.

it's a controversy, but in the news like we work in they do a white balance on the screen that is the exact same thing that is happening. because what the lens does of the camera it tries to take away the white light so the reflection will give you the actual color. >> right. >> your brain is doing the exact same thing only if you are used to having more rods than cones or more cones than rods and that will make your dress blue-black or white-gold. and this morning i didn't know and i called all of my people around the united states but my wife said the dress is blue and black and i say it is white and gold. >> now hold on a second. the only question important is if the black and white llama are wearing a white and gold or black and blue dress. and you are fantastic, sir, thank you. >> and you, constant

professional love you to death, thank you. >> thank you. and that does wrap up our final we the tweep. but we can this going on facebook, instagram and twitter. and follow me and tell me what is important to you. and coming up a new season of house of cards is here and so is one of the stars. chara ally joins me for a preview and talk cynicism in washington after the break.

who is the greatest genius of all time and we figured the best way to figure that out and since we are coming up on march, march madness and figure out your bracket, we have 16 geniuses and having people vote on who the biggest genius is. and the voting is going on for a while and we've whittled it down to a few. in sports michael jordan or serena williams. who is the bigger genius? they said michael jordan. and steve jobs and ada love lace. and jobs advanced. and then michael jordan versus steve jobs and it is overwhelming steve jobs beats michael jordan. probably his beggest loss. and another region philosophies, carl max and rand on the right. and marx.

and then the beetles and then jay-z and then going with lennon and mccarty and so the two beetles have a ticket to the final four. and another region mlk and rachel carson mlk destroying the kpet ipgs. -- competition. and j.k. rawling and then losing to mlk and then marie winning over speelielberg and he beats oprah and so who the ultimate genius? voting is live now at msnbc.com/genius. you can vote lennon and mccartney versus jobs and next week the voting for the ultimate genius will take place. >> a lot of men voting there. i'm noticing a lot of men. that is very interesting and we look forward to the results of

that. thank you, steve, and watch up with steve kornacki every weekend at 8:00 a.m. and who are the greatest minds in modern history and you can tell us or creating a bracket and joining the debate and there are the four rounds and cast your vote at msnbc.com/genius showdown. and next week we'll show more on the genius. and house of cards, genius and everybody can find out whether everything is good under the president and glimpse a look at the band pussy riot. and what is going on between him and his house chair. >> what do you want? >> i want to be on the ticket as

v.p.? >> what you are asking is disproportionate. >> it is repaying a debt. a big one. i whipped the votes for impeachment. i should get to catch in on that. >> there is no way he'll go for this. then there is no reason for me to be your eyes and ears. >> mahershala ali joins me now and we won't ask you for any spoilers because we are going to binge watch it but tell me where your character is going because he is cold and calculated the bottom line for his clients and why does he go this season? >> i think this season he begins to crack to some degree. i think he wants to be fulfilled in his life in a way that maybe work -- might not be able to meet those demands. so i think we get into peek into what he is going through emotionally as a man. >> are we going to see a further

evolution of the relationship with underwood and underwood is rising to power and there is a weird, awkward relationship. and now she is the president of the united states. >> they work in some capacity through the course of the season. >> and, the real person. you have done movies and now this interesting netflix experience. is there something different about the way that these particular projects are put together because it is a phenomenon that has taken over between netflix and amazon prime. to you as an actor, is this a different world? >> no not really. it is not so much about the medium, as it is about the material. and i know personally i'm just drawn to good material. i feel like the pace might be a little bit different. it feels like we're shooting a long fill for six or seven months. like we're working on a long film compared to my network experiences that i've had. but there is a lot -- there is a

lot of quality control and care put into the project -- the product that we're putting out. >> and one of the things that -- i'm a political junky and one of the things i love about house of cards, is amplified about the cynical way washington works and takes dramatic license with it. but do you think it is reflective of crowing cynicism in our politics or do you think in a way that fictionalizing it furthers the cynicism? >> i think it is more of a reflection of the cynicism that people already feel. and think also -- why i believe the show resonates with people to the degree it does is that there is a carnal truth to it all. it is there to entertain, but i think people are responding to that -- that piece in it that feels real and that we see reflected and reported on in the media every day. >> and so as an actor, when you approach remi is there somebody

that you have in mind like olivia in scandal, do you have an idea of this character? >> no. i think i tried to ground him and placed him from new york city and from brooklyn in particular and i was thinking about what if someone as intelligent as jay-z had a different opportunity. and i thought about him like that and tried to ground him and make him a little closer to home for myself. >> and you know, of course we're in this moment and about debate and diversity in hollywood and meaningful roles as actors for those of color and is it still tough to navigate the hollywood world as an actor of color? >> absolutely. it is challenging. i've had some wonderful opportunities but you are always look for the parts that are three dimensional and where your

back story is in the story and not something you have to create for yourself and no one ever knows about it. so i would love to be experiencing that on a consistent basis and iépaépaaépa dapa x9gn
