>> joe is right on that. >> all right, congressman steny hoyer thank you so much. >> thanks, joe. >> hope to see you on the hill. quickly, what did you learn today? >> about a new twitter account, the bowling green massacre. i'm going to get my information from this account going forward. >> #neverforget. >> that does it for us this morning. hope you have a great weekend. watch the super bowl. go falcons. thank you so much for your patience. stephanie ruhle picks up coverage right now. >> thank you so much, joe. good morning, i'm stephanie ruhle. we have breaking news. a blockbuster jobs report out and president trump meets with ceos this morning and the head of uber bailing protesting the travel ban. trump's new executive order today, loosening the o bo ma regulation on big banks after the financial crisis.

a surprise move, the white house criticizing israel over building settlements. a ship from their pro-israel statements as they announce sanctions on iran as early as today. >> as of today, we are officially putting iran on notice. breaking overseas, attack at the louvre. a man with a machete, what was his motive? we are going to begin with the president's meeting. one hour from now with ceos and some of the biggest names on wall street. at the same time, we got the first jobs report since the president took office. the economy added a huge number, 227,000 jobs in january. the unemployment number ticked up to 4.8%. remember, the jobs numbers are more about the job market under obama than trump, it is a back looking number. it's trump's starting off pot. we have the best in the busins to big into this. we go to kristin welker outside

the white house. we have to talk about this ceo meeting. until today, it's been kcordial. the ceo from uber is not attending, he wants off the commission. >> reporter: he cited the president's immigration order, he was under pressure from employees and customers opposed to it. this is what the ceo of tesla is saying, elon musk. we will express our objections to the recent executive order on immigration. this could have a different tone, steph, we'll have to wait and see. steph? >> there could be a positive tone. talk about the executive order and president trump pulling back on dodd-frank, the regulation shah strangled banks. you have jaime dimon sitting in the room probably smiling.

>> reporter: there are two actions the president is going to take, steph. one is an executive order that is going to effectively ask for the review of over regulations and issues of financial service over regulation. basically taking a hard look at dodd-frank, what can be changed and scaled back. he's going to ask the labor department of a rule on consumer prodex. what does that mean? there is a regulation that allows consumers to have a whole host of information before they invest in their 401(k)s, for example. is that rule necessary or does it create limited options and excessive costs? those are the two actio the president is taking, not earth shattering, steph, but the bottom line take away is he's starting the process of trying to scale back the obama era regulations. >> i want to bring in our panel this morning. dan, co-founder of foreign

policy initiative and former d adviser to paul ryan. and a former senior adviser to the hillary clinton campaign. good morning. >> good morning. >> let's start with the jobs number. 227,000 is a great number. i saw barb on cnbc saying this administration wants to get ready to get our economy back. get it back from what? 4.8 unemployment is pretty good. >> i don't think you would have had the election results we had if there weren't serious questions and apprehension of where the economy is going. jobs numbers are good. labor participation is low. low as it's been for decades. the numbers are not good. a and b, wages continue to be low. there's major uneasiness. >> i think wages are the key. wages have been stagnant. profits have been rising and they are at record highs and people are out there working.

that's the root of the economic frustration. president trump is going to have to be careful about the steps he announces if he's going to lighten the load on the corporations while people see wages and paychecks stuck. it's not what they expected when he said he was going to drain the swamp. >> the disparity between ceo compensation today and 2017 hand worker pay has never been greater. his nominee for labor secretary doesn't want to see minimum wage go up. how does donald trump make the argument for the working man? >> two things. one, there are ways to direct wage that is don't deal with the minimum wage. it is separate in terms of making life difficult for those getting into the work force. low skilled, young workers typically get disadvantaged when the minimum wage goes up. it's a legitimate policy. the bigger issue for the ceos

meeting today, they have been benefiting from 0% interest rates. they have been getting free money. free money to speculate with. that's why the stock market has been on a tear. if you are an investor or specklator, life is good. if you are on a fixed income, life has not been good. i think a big challenge is in a year when president trump has to deal with possibly a new fed chair and deciding what guidance, what direction he wants to give where the fed should go. that is going to be a big hit to the people sitting around the table, but could address life for people on fixed incomes and low wages. >> how about the people sitting at the table? when the president calls, you show up at the white house. one reason traverse kalanick didn't is he never met the president. he thought it was a group about policy meetings. they appear to be a photo-op tunety. when he met with the manufacturing ceos, we saw a portion of it on camera.

i spoke to those in the room, they talked about crowd size, the desk in the ovl office. are the ceos being silently complicit with the executive orders if you show up, shake hands and walk out the door? at some point you want to have a real conversation with this guy because it's affecting business. >> that will be a test for the ceos. they know the economic anxiety out there. they understand people are quite restless on economic issues related to wages. president trump has hit a majority disapproval rating after 11 days. that is light years faster than anybody else had gotten to over 50% disapproval. the ceos have to see that people don't want to ban from people from seven countries. they don't want to see us turn our backs on refugees. speak out on economic issues and

values issues. >> he has a guy, doug mcmillan, the ceo of walmart. america first is at the core of the messaging. that is not how america behaves. one of the reasons walmart is the most important company on the planet is people want to buy cheap goods and don't care where they are manufactured. how does donald trump continue a message like that to america? >> let me come back. i think it's a mistake for travis to not come to the meeting today. you are invited to go to the white house, you can talk about whatever you want. the president can talk about whatever he wants, but you can talk about what you want. you can ask the questions you want. if the ceos of these technology companies have legitimate concerns, it affects a lot of employees, it is a big missed opportunity to not show up and challenge him. >> that is the point elon musk

made. you get invited, you go. i want to bring kristin welker balk because there's more going on at the white house. kristin, i want to talk israel and iran. let's start with iran. what's happening there? >> well, steph, we could see this administration slap new sanctions on iran as early as today. why? remember, two days ago, you had the national security adviser, mike flynn, come out saying they are putting iran on notice for recent provocations that include test firing a ballistic missile. they say it was in defiance of a u.n. resolution. iran denies that and they have had sharp language of their own saying they will continue to test fire missiles. but, this is, the trump administration trying to follow through with what we heard on the campaign trail from then candidate trump who was going to talk tough and act tough when it comes to adversaries like iran.

the question hanging over this, what could it mean for the iran nuclear deal? it was put in place by then president obama. they felt they were blocking and slowing iran's progress to develop a nuclear weapon. will the recent provocations derail the iran nuclear deal? at this point my sources are telling me it will not. that's what you should be watching for here, steph. >> tough talk on iran is not a surprise. >> reporter: nope. >> changing their opinion on israel, how about that? >> reporter: they are to some extent, steph. in the wake of recent settlements, this is what press secretary sean spicer had to say. we don't believe the existence of settlement is the impen dense of peace, the existing settlements beyond the current borders may not be helpful. choosing his words carefully.

this is certainly not a rebuke but a subtle nudge, if you will, not to expand settlements in this hotly contested issue, steph. >> i want to bring the panel back. i know you have something to say. dan, on israel. >> i am not one to pile on with donald trump's critique of the media. however, i think the media does itself a disservice on this story. particularly israel. trump was reverting back to obama's policy. it's factually incorrect. in 2004. george w. bush wrote a letter that became u.s. government policy that basically said in a future settlement agreement, we will recognize existing settlement blocks. we will allow growth within settlements, meaning you can build up, families expand, new population shows up. you can build up the

settlements, but you can't expand the perimeter and create new ones. the policy was actually a violation of international l and obstacle to peace. president obama through the u.n. security council resolution basically called neighborhoods in east jerusalem settlements. that is not what donald trump said. he referred back to bush policy. it's radical. he wiped out eight years of obama's policy on settlements in one statement. the press is reading this thing entirely incorrectly. >> look, i think that's partly true and partly not true. signals were set he was not going to reject to expansion. the challenge is there's a learning curve when you become president of the united states. for donald trump who has never been around this world before, it's a big learning curve. you have to walk before you run. dan is right, this reverts to a bush policy. the problem around the world

right now is mixed signals to allies, adversaries and we are the leader of the free world. if we send mixed signals confusing to allies like australia, germany, the uk, that's going to be a problem. we are the strongest country on earth not because we are powerful, but the alliances we have around the world. i think president trump and his team need to get a greater respect for that and the need for alliances to be strong. >> we have to take a break. >> i agree with that. there's a statement that says we do not believe settlements are an obstacle to peace. that line would not have been put in there without coordination with the israeli government. that, so far, remains intact. >> when we come back, we have to talk kelly ann conway citing a nonexistent massacre. the debate a top adviser made

and how she's defending it this morning. here? (becky) i've seen such a change in einstein since he started eating beneful. the number one ingredient in it is beef. (einstein) the beef is fantastic! (becky) he's a very active dog. he never stops moving. he has enough energy to believe that he can jump high enough to catch a bird. it has real beef, grains, vegetables, and he loves it. well, we were coming for an interview... so he wanted to wear his tie. (einstein) it's my power tie. it gives me power. (vo) try beneful originals with beef. with real beef as the number one ingredient. healthful. flavorful. beneful. we're not professional liathletes... ...but that doesn't mean we're giving up. i'm in this for me. for me. along with diet and exercise, farxiga helps lower blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. lowering a1c by up to 1.2 points. do not take if allergic to farxiga. if you experience symptoms of a serious allergic reaction such as rash,... ...swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing,... ...stop taking and seek medical help right away.

do not take farxiga if you have severe kidney problems,... ...are on dialysis, or have bladder cancer. tell you doctor right away if you have blood or red color in your urine,... ...or pain while you urinate. farxiga can cause serious side effects including dehydration, genital yeast infections in women and men, serious urinary tract infections, low blood sugar, and kidney problems. stop taking farxiga and call your doctor right away... ...if you have signs of ketoacidosis... ...which is serious and may lead to death. i'm in this for my family. i'm in this for me. ask your doctor about farxiga... ...and learn how you can get it for free. so if ydead battery,t tire, need a tow or lock your keys in the car, geico's emergency roadside assistance is there 24/7. oh dear, i got a flat tire. hmmm. uh... yeah, can you find a take where it's a bit more dramatic on that last line, yeah? yeah i got it right here. someone help me!!! i have a flat tire!!! well it's good... good for me. what do you think? geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance.

later today, the president is expected to sign a new executive order to lift regulations on reforms put in place under dodd-frank, a bill once described as containing the strongest consumer in history. i want to bring in steve king, member of the judiciary committee. congressman, tell me why rolling back the financial protections is a good thing for the average american. >> we have now lived under dodd-frank for a number of years. i hear from the financial community constantly every year they come to my office once or twice or three times and

especially the small banks or independent banks are suffering under heavy regulations that are written on top of dodd-frank. dodd-frank was heavy enough without the regulations mounted on top of it. so, they have to hire extra people to meet the paperwork standards and limit the activities. when i sit with them and say when i started business, i had a bank with enough confidence in me he trusted me 100%. we built a company 40 years into the construction business. that cannot happen under dodd-frank. there are other components. the fa dishary rule and counselors helping the small investors, it hurts them more than the larger investors. it's going to push them out where they can't help people manage their money.

small and mid-size banks are strangled in this. when you think about why dodd-frank was put in place, it's because of the egregious practices the big banks took. why do you feel confident president trump and people around him will create smart regulation? he is surrounded by goldman sachs people right now. >> we have seen some of that pattern of the president dealing with people at the highest levels, but it gets quick response from that. i will say this, i walked through this here in congress when we went into the downward spiral in 2007 and '08. the phrase is too big to fail. it really should have been too big to be allowed to fail. i think we should have let this shake itself out. we wouldn't have needed dodd-frank.

>> sir, dodd-frank didn't bail those companies out, the bailout did. dodd-frank and the rule were put into place to protect people out there. the vocal rule is stopping banks from proprietary trading. how is that going to help mom and pop on the street that lost their business or their home? >> it's obvious they didn't take the big banks out. they were the overregulations that came in to address the situation. i want to get back to that. i want to realll of dodd-franknd all that president trump can do with regulations as quickly as he can, i hope he calls congress to step up the pace and repeal all of dodd-frank to go back to the free enterprise system. the thing i especially don't like about dodd-frank, three government entities decide whether an invesment bank goes into receivership. that means the banks have to be in the capitol lobbying or

competition will lobby them out. it's too much government involved. >> i want to turn to israel. your guy who said no in the past to a two-state solution, if the president is telling israel, no new settlements, no expanding settlements, will you agree with that? >> you know, i think he put out a softer statement on that. didn't take a definitive position, but questioning whether new settlements helped the cause or not. i think he should review that. i reviewed this in israel for a long time now and came to the conclusion that the two-state solution portion of this effort for peace has run its course and cannot be achieved. when you have israelis, jewish israelis building on lands, i can't hardly look them in the eye and say you can't build there. i don't know what moral argument you have against jewish people

building homes in their ancestral homelands. when i asked for the palestinian side, they say jews shouldn't be allowed to live here. i say where should they be allowed to live? their answer is not here, maybe nowhere. they are surrounded by enemies. they are an island of freedom and democracy and they are a strong ally. they have enemies that hate them. that teaches the next generation to hate them. >> congressman, thank you for joining me this morning. >> thank you, appreciate it. >> one of trump's top advisers criticizing the media for not covering a massacre. there's a problem, though, the massacre didn't happen. how kellyanne conway is walking that back this morning.

i tried hard to quit smoking. but when we brought our daughter home, that was it. now i have nicoderm cq. the nicoderm cq patch with unique extended release technology helps prevent your urge to smoke all day. it's the best thing that ever happened to me. every great why needs a great how.

a french soldier opened fire with a machete. the suspect was injured. official terrorism investigation has been launched. the first u.s. jobs report since donald trump became president, 227,000 jobs added in january. the unemployment ticked up slightly to 4.8%. it's a good looking report. the house voted to repeal regulation requiring the social security administration to disclose the national background check about people with mental illness. i may have to read that twice. set to appear in federal court, facing a slew of charges including drug charges and conspiracy to murder. days away from super bowl li. the atlanta falcons take on the

favored new england patriots. we have a new fire storm. i'm not talking sports fans. raging this morning related to donald trump's travel ban. kellyanne conway defended it on hardball last night. >> i bet there was little coverage. brand-new information to people that president obama had a six-month ban on the iraqi refugee program after two iraqis came here, were radical rised and the master mind behind the bowling green coverage. >> most people don't know that because there's never been a terrorist attack on it. conway issued a tweet saying bowling green terrorist referring to two iraqi citizens living in bowling green arrested in 2011. they were sentenced to federal prison for attempting to send weapons to al qaeda in iraq. i want to bring the panel back in.

dan and joel. i'm on live tv every day, i make mistakes i apologize. this white house is critical, listen, everybody is critical of everyone right now. >> all right. >> let's talk about this one, massacre. >> i think a couple things. one is, we make a mistake like that, humility should be the catch word for you the next day, across the board. don't try to invoke a story about an editor who didn't do something. you are human, you will get latitude there. i think it's a little tougher for kellyanne because she invoked the phrase alternative facts a couple weeks ago. there's going to be heightened scrutiny. show humility and do it as genuinely and generously as you can when you apologize. >> she's saying she made a mistake here. there is the alternative facts

history, president trump harping on the crowd size or the viewership over the inauguration or sean spicer this week with the media made up the travel ban. it's not a muslim ban when several days before rudy giuliani said how do i legally make a muslim ban? >> both the government and the media should, as kellyanne pointed out, has a responsibility to get it right as much of the time, as much as pozable. the standard should be higher for the government. the government controls the leverage of policy. they control the armed forces. they control the agencies and powers of the federal government. when they say something wrong, there's a heightened sensitivity. i'm not letting the press off the hook when they make mistakes as i didn't do a few moments ago about israel. i think the government and officials of the government have

a higher standard. here, my criticism is better coordination and discipline. when you put your surrogates and officials out on television, joe knows this, you get on the same page. what are the examples. >> she has a hard job. >> she has a very hard job. >> she has a hard job. >> it's hard for any administration to do what they do when they go out and engage the media. a lot of problems could be headed off ahead of time with more internal. >> there's a saying among political consultants your greatest strength is your greatest weakness. donald trump is continuing the tweets. >> people like it. >> i don't know, he's got a 52% disapproval rating in 11 days, which is historic. it sets a tone through the administration that needs to be corrected. you are the leader of the free

world. the world hangs on every word. there's a freedom and looseness in this admisttion. we need more measured language from the top. that will perveuate to the staff. dan would probably agree, president's words have impact every day. >> all right. we have to take a break. next, a dramatic attack on one of the greatest museums. we are going to take you live to paris for the latest on the attack that took place at the louvre. plus, big day for the business world. president trump will sit down with the country's top ceos. what it will actually mean for your pocketbook and the banking industry, next. (vo) maybe it was here,

when you hit 300,000 miles. or here, when you walked away without a scratch. maybe it was the day your baby came home. or maybe the day you realized your baby was not a baby anymore. every subaru is built to earn your trust. because we know what you're trusting us with. subaru. kelley blue book's most trusted brand. and best overall brand. love. it's what makes a subaru, a subaru. i own my own company. i had some severe fatigue, some funny rashes. finally, listening to my wife, went to a doctor. and i became diagnosed with hodgkin's lymphoma ...that diagnosis was tough. i had to put my trust in somebody. when i first met steve, we recommended chemotherapy,

and then we did high dose therapy and then autologous stem cell transplant. unfortunately, he went on to have progressive disease i thought that he would be a good candidate for immune therapy. it's an intravenous medicine that is going to make his immune system evade the tumor. with chemotherapy, i felt rough, fatigue, nauseous. and with immune therapy we've had such a positive result. i'm back to working hard. i've honestly never felt this great. i believe the future of immunotherapy at ctca is very bright. the evolution of cancer care is here. learn more at cancercenter.com appointments available now.

you are watching msnbc. i'm stephanie ruhle. we got word at 10:30 a.m., we will get new sanctions on iran. stay tuned for that. between now and then, there's still a lot going on.

moments from now, president trump will be meeting with big business leaders on the heels of an impressive jobs report. the president tweeted saying good jobs are coming back to the u.s. joining me now, brian sullivan and my panel. brian, the jobs report, this is a beautiful number. there's an awful lot of good jobs now. underemployment is the issue. how do you take the number? >> underemployment is an issue. if you do not have a high school diploma, it's hard to get a job. there is a good news number in this, though. average hourly wages didn't rise that much. in leisure and hospitality, we saw nearly 9% jump, which indicates the minimum wage increase is activated and trickling through. not a lot, but more money in people's pocketbooks. >> people who don't necessarily have a college education, they are not finding the right jobs. when president trump talks about

bringing jobs back, are we positioned to bring the right jobs back? the one word we don't hear is innovation. the kind of job training you need, if you are an automechanic, you don't have the skills to fix a car of the future. it looks like a computer there. >> it's a race against time. this policy will probably lose that race because of the speed of innovation, the speed of automation means if you pressure, whatever you want to call it, companies to stay here and build plants here, is going to be more expensive for them to work here than to have machines do it. that is a perplexing policy dilemma for both sides. we can come up with the short term stock apps in the world, this is a race against time. neither side figured this out. >> what are the ceo's to do? it's not that they are not spending, they are spending on automation and innovation.

that is not in line with what president trump is telling them to do. >> it is not. it's great the president is bringing back manufacturing jobs especially in the heartland, love that. however, we have a huge problem with automation and retail. let me explain for a second. i wrote about this the other day. we can bring back 10,000 manufacturing jobs, that's great. we lose 5%, that's 250,000 people 2.5 million, whatever the number is. you get thepoint, automation is taking over the retail business. amazon opened up a store with no cashiers. retail making hip clothes for kids filed for bankruptcy. we are seeing a wipeout for retail. we are focusing on a few jobs here, which is great. we have to do something about the retail wipeout. that's millions of jobs, not thousands of jobs. >> what's important is not that people aren't spending money, they are spending money. they don't have to pay full price anymore.

they want to buy discounted ond online. what do you do about the americans that don't have jobs? >> what do you do? >> it's a long term problem and we are living in a short term world. whether i'm a ceo worrying about an activist knocking on my door. >> snapchat filed to go public. they have 1300 employees. normally a $40 billion company would have 50,000 employees. >> okay, then this -- >> robots are coming. >> snapchat users don't know who max is. we all do. but, those ceo's at the white house today, i'm not saying they haven't been there before. the ceos president obama welcomed were from the tech industry and not necessarily big employers. there's a positive momentum saying we are welcoming them. we are not talking to a valerie jarrett we are feeling optimism.

>> listen, he's meeting with them. i hope he's asking them questions. yesterday, i asked a guest who is aware of what's going on, is it more the president saying, so, steph, what should we do or is it more, steph, here is what we are doing? we need more of the former. if you are bringing these people in, let's hope he's asking them questions and absorbing their answers. >> that's why travis didn't go. if i show up, i'm silently complicit. >> they are under huge pressure from employees, which is what was going on with er, particularly in the valley. they are outraged from the travel ban. they don't want their companies associating with the white house's policy. >> i find it odd with uber because their ultimate business plan is to have all driverless cars. if you are an employee of uber, you are bigger problems, your job is not going to exist if uber gets its way than if your ceo is meeting.

>> it is gutsy that travis would do this. not to show up at the white house, when you have the taxi and limousine commission against you, cities with issues against you. >> the u.s. department of tra s transportation. think about this before you go. if you are ceo cozies up to trump, boycott. if your ceo doesn't cozy up to trump, like starbucks, you get a boycott from the right wing. boycott starbucks. you can't win. >> you dammed either way. >> read a book, stay off social media, pet a puppy, everything is fine. >> i want to bring badge kristen welker, talking about something that's not fine. more sanctions, why? we are talking sarngss in iran. what are we going to find out? >> reporter: breaking news, steph. i spoke to a senior

administration official who confirmed they will announce new sanctions against iran as early as 10:30. in an hour from now, the announcement will come from the treasury department then sean spicer has his briefing at 12:30 today. weal be able to dig into the details with him. the administration not saying what types of sanctions they will be. again, to reset the table here, steph, this action comes in the wake of iran in the words of the administration test firing a ballistic missile they say in defiance of a u.n. resolution. the u.n. has yet to determine that for themselves. new sanctions coming within the hour. >> the white house made clear they are putting iran on notice. calls from concerned citizens regarding betsy devos crashing the capitol hill switch board. the chaos, next.

imy moderate to severeng crohn's disease. i didn't think there was anything else to talk about. but then i realized there was. so, i finally broke the silence with my doctor about what i was experiencing. he said humira is for people like me who have tried her medications but still experience the sympms of moderate to severe crohn's disease. in clinical studies, the majority of patients on humira saw significant symptom relief. and many achieved remission. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems,

serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. if you're still just managing your symptoms, talk with your gastroenterologist about humira. with humira, remission is possible. everything your family touches sticks with them. make sure the germs they bring home don't stick around. use clorox disinfecting products. because no one kills germs better than clorox. opioid-induced constipation.

prescription opioids helped my chronic back pain, but backed me up big time. had to talk to my doctor. she said movantik may help me go more often. don't take movantik if you have or had a bowel blockage. serious side effects include opioid withdrawal, severe stomach pain, severe diarrhea, and stomach or intestinal tears. tell your doctor about side effects and medicines you take. movantik may interact with them causing side effects. have your movantik moment. talk to your doctor about opioid-induced constipation. i can't wait for her to have that college experience that i had. the classes, the friends, the independence. and since we planned for it, that student debt is the one experience, i'm glad she'll miss when you have the right financial advisor, life can be brilliant. ameriprise

betsy devos is one step closer to becoming education secretary this morning after a motion a short time ago. her nomination now goes to the full senate for a vote early next week. something very unusual is happening. people across america are flooding congressional phone lines telling their senators not to vote for devos. two republicans have already turned on her based on the calls. >> i have heard from thousands, truly thousands of alaskans who share their concerns about mrs. devos as secretary of education. >> they are not stopping. senator bob casey reports getting 80,000 pieces of mail on it. that is 900% more than usual. some say the last three days have been the busiest in the capitol switchboard history. >> i think we have seen the senate switch boards get more volumes of calls now than they have for years before.

>> i want you to hear this. this is what happens if you call new jersey senator bob menendez's office this morning. >> i'm sorry, that mailbox is full. please try again later. thanks for calling. good-bye. >> that was for real. right now, the vote is set at 50-50 with the vice president as the tie breaker but could one more senator go? joining me now is democratic senator of hawaii who sits on the judiciary committee. good morning. tell us -- >> good morning. >> is betsy devos going to get confirmed? are you going to get one more senator to turn? >> that's why the constituents from every state who care about public schools and the millions of young children need to continue to call their senators because it shows there's such concern about betsy devos and her rightness for this position. so, you know, for myself, i will be voting against her.

why? because we need a person, a secretary of education who actually believes in the public school system and is committed to public schools and shows understanding of the major enforcement requirements for the department of education she did not show that she had an understanding of in particular with children with disabilities. you know what? we talk all the time about how foundational education is. we should ask ourselves, before we cast our votes, is she the best person for the millions of children and young people who attend public school? the answer has got to be no. i know from experience how important public schools are. i'm an immigrant. i attended public schools all the way through college. i learned how to speak english in public schools. i learned to prepare for college in public schools and we all have teachers who influence our lives. for me, that was my sixth grade teacher, who i still keep in

touch with. he really was committed to his students and he encouraged me to study hard and make something of myself and give back. >> i'm a product of public school. it was my first grade teacher. this announcement, at 10:30 this morning, we are hearing about new sanctions against iran. you are on the armed services committee. what do you know about this? >> i support the iran nuclear deal and, frankly, i don't know what's in the sanctions that they were talking about. he should be listening to national security of experienced people like general maddis, the defense secretary, general kelly of homeland security, not his adviser bannon, who doesn't have background on national security issues. >> thank you for joining me, i appreciate it. >> of course, aloha. a possible terrorist attack at europe's biggest tourist

now to a possie terror incident outside what is arguably the most famous museum in the world. police in paris shot a man after they say he attempted to stab an officer in front of the louvre after shouting "god is great." what have you learned? >> reporter: we don't know anything about the identity of the attacker. french police have been very deliberate and cautious in their release of information. they do not even know the nationality of the man. below is louvre is a huge

high-end shopping mall. he was refused entry to the louvre. there happened to be a a patrol of four military soldiers walking by. he went after them with a machete. so when police looked in his bags, he was carrying another machete. this man is now hospitalized. he wasn't killed but the details are not trickling out right now. the police are being very cautious in terms of what they're telling us about the actual identity of this attacker. >> thank you, mat bradley, joining us live from paris. when we come back, the president any moment from now is meeting with leaders of some of the most recognizable brands, ford, tessler, they will be it table so why not uber? dea.

you sit here and you look at president trump, you went through the campaign when president trump was demanding to see those speeches that hillary clinton gave to goldman sachs complaining about her wall street ties and it kind of seems the administration is wall street central. >> i think we made a strong case that everything he was advocating economically was going to be a handout to corporate america, including countries that have been extremely profitable, that haven't praised wages, that haven't invested back in america. i think some of his voters may be surprised, some of those working class people who supported him may be surprised. we'll see if some of the policies get enacted, i think if they do, there is going to be quite a rebellion if there is a tax giveaway the size that donald trump is talking about. >> when he sits at the desk saying reducing taxes, bringing

jobs back, what's going to happen? >> i think they're heading for major headwinds on this tax reform package. while there's appeal for a lot of what he wants to do, i do think you could bring a lot of companies back to the u.s., i think this border adjustment tax which will do a lot of that will also increase consumer goods. if you live in arkansas and you work for walmart, your life is going to change because walmart is going to take a hoit when consumer goods go up from this border tax. it remains to be seen whether there's a rejection of the tax reform bill. >> more important, who is going to win the super bowl? >> this is easy. >> easy? how is that? >> first of all, i'm for the falcons with this game because the enemy of my enemy is my friend. i believe that in jgeo politics and in sports.

i'm for whoever the patriots are playing. however, if the falcons lose, i get to watch roger goodell hand that trophy to brady, which would also be great. >> i think the patriots win, i think tom brady is on a mission, i think they have a better defense and i think the whole team is behind the -- >> dan's reasoning shows what a political beast you are! >> he's playing chess here. >> do you think i'm wearing red for the patriots? >> for the falcons. >> i'm not. >> she's a redskins fan. >> i am a redskins fan. >> you might not like boston but who doesn't like tom brady. >> now we have to go to my friend hallie jackson, who is also wearing red.
