bill and i'm convinced that we're going take the time to do it right. health care uncertainty republicans on capitol hill pump the brakes about what comes next for obamacare. political newcomer blows out far right marine la pen in a landslide. sally yates set to testify. who knew what about russia and the presidential election good morning, everyone. mondays, may 8. emmanuel macron has been elected the next president of the france. landslide victory. comes after a run off election. won nearly 66% of the vote.

compared to le pen's 35%. youngest leader of france since napoleon bone apart. big win adding i look very much forward to working with him. in addition to fighting off le pen. subject of last minute hack and release of campaign documents. some real and some said to be fabricated. reportedly at the hands of russian hackers. in a tweet, hillary clinton also the subject of alleged russian campaign hack. victory for macron, france, eu and the world defeated those interfering with democracy. she add ed parenthetically. i can't talk about that. >> macron takes over a very divided france. this election had the worst turn out in nearly 50 years. what's his mandate to governor here. >> that's right. eamon, it's all going to hinge on the parliamentary elections

coming up. leading the party. this is a very young party. he only formed it within the last couple of months. parliamentary elections next month. polls saying he could get as many as 286 seats out of 577 seat parliament. he only needs about 289 to kovrnkovr governor. he could really avoid having to share power. at this point, i was in marseilles a week ago. a city on the southern coast. bitter terrorist attacks right around there. a lot of immigrants and a lot of mutuals in marseilles. also at the same time, a lot of support for marine le pen and far right agenda. very deep division. folks were saying even with le pen having lost, these divisions and these anxieties, this racism, a lot of people feel here in france going to persist. right now, eamon, there's a lot

of celebration in the media. i want to show you newspapers. center right paper. this is just saying, you know, that this is a play on his political party. saying that the victory is continuing. and then here, this is the left wing paper. well played with very youthful face as you mentioned. then the back of marine la pen, well done. over to health care overall met to go through a serious makeover in the senate. some republicans saying they will retool rather than try to pass the house aversion of the republican. insisting that nobody will lose coverage. >> we have all these multiple layers of protection to make sure these families, look, these are friends and constituents. we want to make sure that people

who have bad health care stuatu, who have preexisting condition, get affordable coverage. >> this is app different and better way to cover individuals with preexisting conditions. nobody wants folks who have a preexisting illness or injury not to be covered. >> can you really standby the president's pledge that everybody will be taken care of. >> absolutely. even if a governor, which i'm not sure that's ever going to happen takes waiver option, it wouldn't affect anyone with continuous coverage. >> so despite all those assurances, it will reduce for those just over the poverty line. they could weigh rules against charging higher prices to those with preexisting conditions while setting up so-called high risk pools. speaking to reporters in milwaukee, wisconsin governor floated the idea of seeking a waiver saying, quotes, that's

something we certainly would consider. later walked back comment. sayi joining us from capitol hill. jonathan swan. thanks for joining us. saw discore in the republican's message. do you think that means a rocky start to all of this. >> the package you played even before this one was pretty amazing. the shows yesterday the official line from the white house and paul ryan from house republican leadership saying this bill is a really great start. it protects people with preexisting conditions. potentially better or the same as obamacare. then you had susan collins the senator from maine saying no, we need to start from scratch. whole new fresh approach. a lot of problems with the bill's coverage and also the fact it defunds planned parenthood. about ten senators that you put.

>> risk pools created in maine. you mentioned republican senator susan clinics had her own response. listen to this. >> i've heard a lot of talk about the maine hi risk. indeed it was a success in maine for the 18 months or so in which it operated, but for the package of the aca and it can be part of the solution, but it maine we had definite revenue streams supporting the high risk poll. that is why it worked. >> reporter: as the health care issues moves to the senate, are the republicans prepared to take

it on the same way it came out of the house. i know you've been reporting that speaker ryan is looking to pi pivot from health care to tax reform. what does he have in store. >> to answer your question, the first part is yes, the senate is running this working group of 12 folks, but susan collins is not in the working group. there are a lot of other senators that aren't in the working group that will probably cause a lot of trouble for them. yes, it's a long way to go on health care. paul ryan. we reported instead axios last night that he this week will be going to ohio on wednesday. to start his big sales pitch for tax reform. now, we know that there are some disagreements between paul ryan's house plan and what the white house is thinking of, but the white house quite smartly has putut something pretty light on detail and doesn't get much into that. we can expect very big picture from paul ryan. he wants to build a long runway

for tax reform. with the house in recess this week. some republicans facing blow back from constituents. in idaho, town hall event friday he sparked outrage for this comment. . >> no one wants anyone to die. that line is so indefensible. nobody dies because they don't have access to health care. >> later admit instead a facebook post that his answer that you heard there wasn't very elega elegant. responding to a false notion the republican health care plan will cause people to die in the streets. i completely reject. i was trying to explain that all hospitals are required to treat patients in need of emergency care regardless of ability to pay. does not change that.

on saturday, congressman tom reid faced criticism for his vote in favor of the health care bill. >> you cannot do this to us and our children. you're kill can go us. >> you're killing us. shame on you. >> mental health services, i really question if you read this book, when you come out and say that opium economic is the number one priority yet you vote for a law that takes that out of the mandate. they don't have to provide it. explain that. >> that's not true. >> oh, it isn't. >> show me in the legislation where it is. >> show us the legislation. >> right here. can i have your copy? >> former president obama is publicly defending his signature health care law the affordable care act. last night at the presidential library in boston, he accepted the profile encourage award. his speech, he highlighted the democrats who voted in favor of

obamacare back in 2010 knowing it could cost congressional seats. >> there was a reason why health care reform had not been accomplished before. it was hard. by time the vote came up to pass the affordable care act, these these freshman congressmen and women knew they had to make a choice. had a chance to ensure millions and prevent untold worry and suffering and bankruptcy and even death, but the same vote would likely coast them their new seats. these men and women did the right thing. they did the hard thing. because of that vote, 20 million people got health insurance who didn't have it. most of them did lose their

seats. it was a personal sacrifice, but i know because identify spoken to many of them that they thought and still think it was worth it. this great debate is not settled, but continues. it actually doesn't take a lot of courage to aide those who were already powerful. already comfortable. already influential. does require to champion the vulnerable and the sick a. i hope they understand that courage means not simply doing what is politically expedient, but doing what they believe deep in their hearts is right. >> coming up. sally yates set to testify today about her warning to the trump administration over form eer national security director

welcome back. it's the bottom of the hour. start with the morning's top stories. federal judge set to hear arguments in the appeal of the travel ban. fighting the maryland judges ruling. in fact justice department lawyers will argue that the order should be allowed to take effect while the merits of the case are argued in court. second nominee for secretary of the army has withdrawn name for consideration. mark green made that announcement friday. amid growing calls for the president to pick someone else for the job over green's past comments on the lgbtq and muslim community. calls the criticisms false and misleading attacks against him. emmanuel macron has won the french election. dominant victory winning both urban and rural voters with high and low end unemployment. age 39. youngest leader of france since

napoleon. joining us from france. good to have you with us. we know the race was closely watched. not only in france, but also across europe. what did the win mean for the future of the european union. >> this is a big win. not just for france. not just for europe, but for the global community. of course emmanuel macron was the radical centrist. running on very much internationalist approach. the french people are behind the european union. marine le pen had run on a platform similar to brexit. similar to donald trump. called the donald trump of france. against the global sort of super national institutions. not just the european union and the euro. also nato. she wanted to re-evaluate france's position in nato. so emmanuel macron has made it very clear his policy is to improve france's economy and

that means improving the european union's economy. so he's seeing this, he's seeing france as not just a nationalist entity. it's not a france first sort of perspective. it's a europe first. he sees the improvement of europe as benefitting france. you saw last night when he walk out at the louvre and accepted the nomination. he walked out to the tune of ode to joy. in the crowd in front of him, tons of supporters who were waving french flags. mixed in one hundreds and hundreds of european union flags. if you can imagine, seeing flags from a super national entity with which the united states shared power, it would be almost unthinkable. so he's coming at this from a very, very proeuropean perspective.

pronato spperspective. that means new life being breathed into europe here from france. >> certainly officials in brussels must be watching this with a sigh of relief. live in paris. thank you for joining us. ruling out digital and radio ads to try to seize the moment. coalition group called save my care is targets two dozen house republicans with ads like this one. >> sally voted yes even though the bill makes coverage completely unaffordable to people with preexisting conditions. congress wom congresswoman. how could you do this to us. >> he's not worried about the gop losing ground.

adding voters would be more angry if they had not kept campaign promises. over the hill. legislative win on capitol hill said to be overshadowed by michael flynn. yates reportedly warned the trump administration about major discrepancy in michael flynn's account of his contacts with russian ambassador and what actually transpired. joining us again from capitol hill, national political reporter. jonathan, good to have you with us. the trump administration, they would love to just get over this michael flynn story. so protective of him. today they probably wish this chapter would end as quickly as possible, but it does not seem to be happening. >> no. and there's a really interesting divide in the white house. you have staff, white house staff including senior staff who have very happy to tell reporters anonymously all the

things that i wish they said about michael flynn you know that he was a terrible force on the national security counsel. that he manipulated the president towards his own points of view. that he was dishonest. the list goes on and on and on. they're throwing him under the bus. then you have the president himself who is very not only reluctant to undermine flynn, but wanted a message scintillate last night. we accomplished a story about all of the white house back biting and the president himself was not happy about that story. wanted the message very clear that there's to be no undermining of mike flynn. >> jonathan, what do you see from michael flynn going forward. what the fallout for him. >> it's very unclear. he's not saying anything. his lawyer is handling it. his lawyer said publicly he wants immunity. people read things into that. i just think we're foolish to sort of say anything definitive about what he may or may not say

because we just don't know. he's being very, very guarded about what he's willing to say publicly which we may find that he doesn't actually end up testifying because that immunity request was dismissed out of hand. >> do you think it could actually change the immunity request. >> i don't think we've seen any indication they're prepared to do that. pretty skeptical that's going to trance pyspire transpire. money in a reality linked to family or jared kushner. targeting chinese investors in effort to the raise $150 million through the visa program for luxury apartment complex in new jersey. the visa program allows wealthy foreigners who invest half a million dollars into the project

to obtain u.s. immigration visas, kushner sold stake to family trust earlier this year. spoke at that event. according to "new york times," told perspective investors the project means a lot to me and my entire family. she also mentioned her brother's service as chief executive of the company. kushner company has used the visa program in the past raising $50 million for a luxury tower that opened late last year. >> over to north korea detain add fourth u.s. citizen. pyongyang state run media is being held for hostile acts. janice, just last month. north korea detained american citizen. now this all amid really escalating tensions there. >> reporter: and both men who have been detained just days

apart in the last couple of weeks were working at the same university, pyongyang university of science and technology. this is a new institution privately funded on the outskirts of pyongyang. that offers a western style education in english to the elite who have been chosen by the regime hand picked for this school. and this university was opened with the approval of the regime. so it's raising questions about how it is that both men who were working at this same place could both be detained on the same charges and accused of these crimes against the state. it's putting the spotlight on whether there's political information. get the united states into some sort of negotiation. why the trump level would feel obliged to send a high level to initiate talks. this has been the sort of thing that has happened in the past

with north korea. not unprecedent. the question is how much time it could take. could take weeks or months. of course a time of very high tension here. in relations between the u.s. and north korea. there's also been a lot of talk in the north korean media lately. state run news agency about espionage. just last week, they accused the u.s. and south korea of hatching a plot to assassinate kim jong-un. now we have another american who has been detained on espionage charges. not yet making the connection, but it's not going unnoticed by observers here. >> i think the real question here is really what is the object iive and is there more t come. janice, thank you. two people have been killed and eight others yird when a vigil turned deadly on chicago's south side. police say victims were at a memorial for a murder that occurred earlier that same day. two assail i can'ts emerged from
