mrs. pelosi's constituents. right now you are not hearing about how constituents want the green deal embraced by mrs. pelosi. is that the timer? >> secretary: no, you have about four seconds. >> four seconds. so, dan, get with the town hall meetings, please. thank you. >> secretary: commissioners, item five is a community and public health committee report back. and i spoke to commissioner loyce, because so many people are here for the employee awards, with your permission, we can come back with that after item six, so everyone can do what they need to do to support their colleagues. so the item six is the sfdph non-hospital employee awards. i'm not sure who's first, but the commissioners will read off your names. as the name is read, please enter over there, come across here. you have the option of shaking hands with all the commissioners and dr. colfax. stand here, and commissioner sanchez will hand you your award, and we can applaud you. >> the first is everyone working for the nurse family partnership. and i

mrs. pelosi: but not much progress has been made on the other side of the aisle in terms of peace in central america. this amendment is the same old thing. i see no growth, no responding to changing circumstances in central america, no response to the wishes of the people of central america, no response to the people of the u.s. a few years ago, i visited central america and that is one of the reasons i worked hard to come to congress to do whatever i could, in my power to stop the suffering there. i yield to my colleague. >> i want to complement my colleague from san francisco on her excellent remark and i associate myself with those remarks. i'm proud to serve with her and represent that city. i would like to say that you are right. it is the same old thing. we have seen those planes go down with weapons and come back with the drugs. we do not want that same old thing. we do not want to see the same people who brought us general noriega. i do not know where people have been. he is looking at am

he ought to thank mrs. pelosi.s on his speech than he might otherwise get. >> sandra: the state of the union is tomorrow night and we'll have that image of the president standing there delivering his address to the nation with nancy pelosi sitting behind him. >> right. >> sandra: and this february 15th deadline quickly approaching. >> it's a great opportunity for the president to lead the american people because when you speak at the state of the union, you know, in the capitol, the legislative branch, you are speaking to all the american people. you are the president of every american, whether you like it or not. and it is your chance to make your case. he has already got his base. he needs to get that little margin out there. i think if he took what he is offering now, if he does the emergency and he added a part about the dreamers, i'll solve this problem, i'll sign this. it doesn't have to be a trade. i think it would be a winner. >> sandra: sounds like a forecast on your part that this will be a -- >> presiden

mrs. pelosi said this morning, "i think most americans want to see the president's tax returns."e his privacy. he has the same right to privacy as everybody else. but the democrats are going to do it. >> melissa: go ahead, harris. this be when i was just going to say, how does that come about? who calls them on this? if you are telling you that cannot be done between -- then how does that happen? >> judge napolitano: it can't be done from a perspective of right versus wrong. they can be done from a political perspective because she has a 40-vote majority in the house and they have a substantial numerically proportionate majority on the house intelligence and house judiciary committee's. they serve a subpoena, the president refuses that, they won't serve it on him. they will serve it on some neutral party like the irs. then a judge will call. >> harris: real quick follow-up, then brady said these are parallel lanes. you got them either investigation an end a house investigation. what if they come out with different answers? >> judge napolitano: that's for the market public to addr

yes, mrs. pelosiunce this in the house, maybe it even passes in the senate, and then trump will veto it. but actually the real remedy is to fix the law. >> they can't keep the government open. do you think they're going to do some good government law making right now? they can't keep the government open. you think they're going to fix that law? >> if i'm one of these republican senators who sort of is on the fence about donald trump, the thing that can get me really energized is the fact the executive branch is encroaching on my grounds. that i can stick up for. some of these guys, look, it's not so much i'm against trump. i'm for the constitution. i'm for the executive one branch. so that to me, look, i agree with you, they can't even keep the government open so the idea they're going to amend the law is unlikely, i'm just saying that's what should be done. >> not so much un-lukely it would just take a democratic president to get into office for the republican lawmakers to amend the law. >> that's th

pelosi: mr. cuellar? rep. cuellar: thank you again for your leadership, for putting this very united conferees committee together. we got over 300 votes today. there was a strong, bipartisan vote. what we did in this committee was very simple. it was a matter of, how do you see the border? unfortunately, there are some people that see the border as a crisis, as a place that is out of control. for us that live on the border, that spend a lot of time at the border, we see the border as opportunity and community. a place where we see trade and tourism, where we want to raise our families and send our kids to school, and start businesses. that is the two divisions that we saw certain from the president, and the opposite that we saw, and from there, we were able to put those visions together and find a balance. we don't believe in open borders. we want to see smart border security. not a 14th century wall that the president believes in, but we want to find balance between security and legitimate tourism. this is wh

. >> i think it shows that even though missy -- mrs. pelosi said let's not talk about our agenda on paper these are all rational trade-offs. they could get donald trump a chance to embrace that. even where you and i might disagree. i would have a lot of disagreement. but i think they are calculating they are more interested in giving him a victory then working together for their own agenda. and that is what has hung us up on the budget. i don't think they are still negotiating. we will see where that comes out. most members of congress do not want a government shutdown but do you think that there is any more prospect that bill does about bipartisan deals in the next two years. >> you saw that from the reaction from democrat to the speech. this was a very presidential speech. he also did a good job especially in the beginning talking about the accomplishments in the good place for incense that the united states economy was in. use up most democrats sit on their hands and refuse to applaud any of those accomplishments. and then saint it was the

the president and mrs. pelosi seem to have intractable stance. i won't sign a bill without money for the border wall. the president is will fog negotiate and give her stuff for this, she is not. i think the president doesn't have a choice from his own sense this was a sitting issue. otherwise it's a big defeat for him if they give him nothing. liz: strip out the politics. dose have a choice, for the good of the country? >> i'm not sure the wall is the end all and be all of border security. but backed into a corner. what i would do if i was the president, i think he should offer a deal for the dreamers and split the emergency coalition. liz: the border patrol guys keep saying they need a wall. they need a backstop. we are hearing from the him and mcclatchyy saying the democrats are moving towards a barrier, just don't call it a wall. >> i don't think speaker pelosi is moving towards that. watch this sound bite. >> she knows that the walls we have right now are working. she knows you can't secure a 1,900 border without using barriers. i think she d

i think the impeachments even though mrs. pelosi said before the election let's not talk about impeachment, let's talk about the alleged, in paper they are rational trade-offs. paul: where you and i might disagree. >> but i think they're calculating whether they are right or wrong, they are more interested in not giving him a victory than working together for their own agenda, compromise and that's what hung us up on the budget, right, and the shutdown. paul: i don't think, kim, the people are still negotiating and we will see where that comes out, i think most members of congress and including morepublicans do not, i repeat o not want government shutdown but do you think that there's any more than bill does about bipartisan deals in the next year. >> who knows? you saw from the reaction from democrats. dan made a pretty good point that this was very presidential and uplifting speech, he also did a good job essentially in the beginning talking about the accomplishments and you saw most democrats sit on their hands and refuse to appl

president will get sued and it won't succeed in accomplishing his goal, and third because i think mrs. pelosi will come over here to divide republicans. it strikes me as not a good strategy. >> casey hunt, the president heard all of those criticisms and he did it academy, did he have to do it to get the votes? >> no, in fact it was the other way, he had to give a concession to the president to get him to guarantee that he would sign the bill and do it today so that he could get the comfort level of his conference on board. i mean mitch mcconnell said he would support the president in this national emergency declaration. mitch mcconnell said it would do exactly what he was just talking about. it could divide the party and potentially embarrass the president. so what do the democrats do now? they're still working out that strategy, but this will potentially divide the party. and for that one sound bite you played there are so, 15, possibly 20 plus republicans on camera saying the same thing. >> jacob, i assume it must be mand moan yum there, but that has been part of the -- you have been more t

i think mrs. pelosio want to impeach the president. >> neil: anything that would rise to high crimes and misdemeanors. >> they believe their base wants that. democrats in the house can get their hands on president trump's tax returns and go to the floor of the house and reveal them just to embarrass him. a statute. i didn't know this existed until our colleague said is it true? the chairman of the senate finance committee and the chair of the house ways and means committee can get anybody's tax returns that they want. they can go to the floor of the senate or house and reveal it with impunity. why would they do that? to taunt and torment and embarrass the president and for no valid governmental purpose. >> neil: michael cohen on wednesday in the public testimony, what do you expect? >> fireworks. all of it. presidential behavior. >> neil: all right, my my friend. amazing stuff. we are on top of all of it. doubt up 60 points. 2.5% of all time highs, the highest level this year. "the five" is now. ♪ >> jes

president will get sued and it won't succeed in accomplishing his goal and three because i think mrs. pelosi will introduce a resolution which will pass the house and come over here and divide republicans which is what kasie was talking about. they can do that sort of thing. how is that being calculated in the white house right now? >> one fight at a time. so if the president goes forward with a national emergency declaration using that unilateral power, he can try to quiet conservative voices and should that kind of response come from congress, that becomes a new battle for another day instead of a long-term policy approach from this which is what the appropriations process that braug th brought thus bill in the first place was intended to. do you heard leader hoyer say not everybody get what is they want but it was the result of hard work. but if you add on a layer of national emergency -- and there are a number of national emergencies that have been declared by presidents of both parties for things like swine flu or bird flu and 9/11 and things of that nature or disaster emergencies where

you have this resurgent and ascendant left, and then you have moderates who are going to mrs. pelosie should broker a deal on the border and so on because if we don't, you're no longer going to be speaker and the house is going to recertificarevert back to republican control. one thing the president did, and it was an unapologetic embrace of exceptionalism, which we haven't gotten, he's going to pattern his re-election in 2020 on reagan's 1984 model which is a 21st century version of morning in america. he delivered a thriving economy and a stronger u.s. military and u.s. international position. >> of course, the risk -- >> that is what you saw in this speech. it was a speech of great clarity as well. not just on immigration, but late-term abortion and on some other things. >> i think i listened to the wrong speech. >> i absolutely didn't hear that. i didn't hear that at all. there was a lot of rhetoric. he was talking to his base and trying to scare maybe more moderate members of the democratic party not to i think go where i think most americans are going. andrew said it. we had a

should house speaker pelosi be required to release her tax returns? yes or no? mr. jeffries: that's a question i think you should direct to speaker pelosi. reporter: on a different topic. there's momentum building in the senate among republicans to rein in some of the authority the president has on trade as related to national security purposes. they are debating whether they should have an approval or disapproval resolution in the congress on future measures. would they find a partner in house democrats on that? mr. jeffries: the trade issue is of particular importance to many members of the house democratic caucus and we believe in fair trade and in better-negotiated deals that serve the best interests of the american middle class and all those who aspire to be part of it. in terms of the particular vehicle, i think we're open to discussion as it relates to what the other house of congress does, but we'll make some decisions on our own in terms of what procedurally makes sense to accomplish the substantive objective which is to continue, consistent with our "for th

mr. mccarthy: it's not in bill form so it's hard to expand. speaker pelosi calls it the green dream or something. i think it has a lot of work to go forward. i'm really looking to, one, how do we keep our economy, how do we make sure our environment's protected at the same time? i think we can find common ground on that. it's interesting in this green new deal, all the buildings, all the homes will have to be redone, zero emissions. a lot of people are talking about, what do you do with animals? her own speaker is calling it a dream green. i think there's challenges to it, even in her own conference. reporter: do you think, again, a lot depends on these negotiations, but if president trump -- first of all, do you think president trump may still declare a national emergency on the boarder? and if he does, and there's a measure to disapprove of that, what kind of vote would that be for you and your members? would it be a challenge or have they -- they have -- a lot of members are constitutional conservatives, so that might be an opportunity to break from the p

mr. pelosi's statement, last day my house negotiators will be there in friday.e to prepare the legislation. the 15th is the following wednesday, friday. the president may choose to sign this executive order. neil: now he can't say or telegraph that in his speech tomorrow? >> i think it would be terrible if he does that tomorrow night. neil: but he is certainly heading in that direction. >> yes. neil: you are arguing almost guarranty a court strikes it down? >> for two reasons. clear from the language of the constitution and interpretation of that language 1952, shutdown of steel mills, harry truman tried to force to reopen using government dollars, the president cannot spend money the congress hasn't authorized. problem truman didn't have that donald trump done, will hurd, congressman from texas, through whose district most of the wall would go, 80% is on private property. the president has to take that property by eminent domain. each one of those property owners gets a trial. the trials cost money. the president can't condemn property without authorization of

mr. president? >> pelosi used the opportunity to remind everyone of the enemy within.ther country in the world can match. but her immediate point is if you give one president power like this, anering will come along and use it in ways you cannot imagine. the way to address is through debate and are spect for the constitution. "all in" with chris hayes with a special report live from the border. >>> the president of the united states is going to declare a national emergency on our southern border. but i have to tell you it doesn't look like an emergency from where i'm standing. in el paso, texas over looking the city of juarez, mexico. covering all 2,000 miles of our southern border. we keep talking about this border like it's one thing. like it's one place. like it's a national crisis. >> this is a tremendoucr

ashley: he was thinking of allowing congressional democrats, mrs. pelosi and mr. having a say in those china trade talks. by the way, we have already had reaction from pelosi and schumer, saying quote, the emergency declaration does quote, great violence to our constitution and they go on to say that congress will defend its constitutional authorities in congress, in court, in the public using every remedy available. so much as the president predicted, this is headed to the courts. stuart: that was -- that was the major part of this statement and news conference, the fact that he has declared a state of emergency. the president did say it goes straight to the courts, probably the ninth circuit, where he expects to lose. bad ruling, he said. then he would go to the supreme court, where he says i expect to win. blake burman, what have you got? reporter: much of what we heard from president trump just a little while ago was much of what we have heard from him over the past -- stuart: he had to leave. he was being told to leave. so we got him in just in time but we di

mr. kane: people like chuck schumer, nancy pelosi, before that going back to trent lott, tom daschle, very expressive, would like to try to tell you what they were thinking. try to sort of work the press to spin what -- what we would be reporting on. mcconnell, extreme discipline i'm talking about at a breakfast with reporters in 2010, i believe. he called himself the master of the unexpressed thought. people were trying to get him to weigh in on something, asking it five different ways, and he has this way of -- he used to say at the risk of being redundant i have nothing further to add. and he would -- he would never -- he rarely steps in it. with his own words. so that makes it difficult. you don't get the sort of stream of consciousness that you get on donald trump's twitter feed. mcconnell has probably never once -- i'd be surprised if he ever even opened the twitter app. he just -- but you know in the end it is all about winning, and he is just trying to win. he wants to win senate seats. he wants -- every vote is calculated at that, at a pure partisan power play. and there are very
