did tad or elizabeth say anything, do anything? >> you know, they made a couple spontaneous statements saying he was glad the incident had come to an end. he was relieved. he made several comments he wasn't going to cause any altercation with law enforcement and said he had seen the flyers and bolos that he was armed and dangerous. he said he was armed but in no way dangerous and wanted to make sure that he would cooperate with law enforcement fully and completely. >> lieutenant, how did elizabeth seem? what was her demeanor. >> obviously whenever the s.w.a.t. team shows up that can be traumatic. she saw us. it was an intense situation and we took -- after we placed him into protective custody, she was laughing, she was crying. she was kind of an emotional roller coaster as you can imagine. >> all right, well, sheriff jon lopey, lieutenant behr tharsing and griffin barry, thank for joining us this morning.

mandates to keep down the costs of insurance. and congress is still out on its recess so the real test comes next week when they return, but right now no indication that the republicans who oppose the health care reform bill on the last one are now ready for a new deal on this new one and democrats right now, george, already saying no way, nancy pelosi calls this plan worse than the last one. >> they say it's not going anywhere. meantime, on the government funding talks behind the scenes have been going pretty well to keep the government open for some time. a new stumbling block emerging. this white house demand for funder for the border wall. >> reporter: the clock is ticking right now on this deadline for this government shutdown. the white house really is calling a hard line on this and say democrats have to help fund this border wall. this is a priority for the president. this is a sticking point for them but, look, george, democrats are holding the line and say the white house is moving in with a heavy hand right now. >> the government won't stay open if some democrats don't vote for it. cecilia vega, thanks very much. thousand to that war of

the rogue nation warning of a, quote, super mighty preemptive strike they say would reduce u.s. forces to ashes and putting bombers on heightened alert and jonathan karl has all of those developments. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning. quite a threat from the north koreans to reduce u.s. forces to ashes. but just a short while ago defense secretary james mattis dismissed the threat as the kind of thing the north koreans have been saying for decades but there is no question the u.s. is on heightened alert. the biggest concern right now are indications the north koreans are preparing to conduct a nuclear test. that would be the first nuclear test by north korea since donald trump became president and a significant escalation of this crisis. >> jon, we know the white house is moving the aircraft carrier into the region and president trump touting military turns but is there any sign of a diplomatic solution. >> reporter: the big push is

get china to put more pressure on north korea and yesterday the president said there are indications that china is stepping up. >> i can say that all of the pundits out there are saying they never have seen china work like they're working right now. some very unusual moves have been made over the last two or three hours. >> reporter: so what was he talking about with those new moves? i asked the senior staff here at the white house. we asked the pentagon. we asked the state department. nobody could or would tell us. but could be that heightened alert status those chinese bombers were put on possibly, amy. >> all right, jon karl, thank you. george. more with matthew dowd here. let's talk about the 100 days. the white house seems conflicted on how to talk about it. the president says no one has accomplished more in the first 100 days than i have and this morning out with a new tweet saying no matter how much i accomplish during this ridiculous standard of the first 100 days and it has bee

including the supreme court, media will kill. so they're braced for all this right now. how should we think about it? >> first of all it's a standard. he has been talking about, right, ever since election day all the things he was going to do in the first 100 days. i would say what's so far it's very mixed. let's keep in mind he has all the levers of powers in washington, the presidency, the senate. he has the house. he now has the supreme court in that. you would think having all these home games basically he's going to have a series of wins so i think it's been underwhelming and if you look at the public's response to the first 92 days, two-thirds of country think we are weigh off on the wrong track and a majority still disapproves of him so i think he has much more to prove. >> number one thing he has to do. >> passion a bill at some point where you see he's brought congress together and he demonstrates it. all the things he said so far the public has not yet seen it affecting their lives. >> matt dowd, thanks very much. all the latest in politics sunday morning on "this week" and release a
