a real ball game there. give us your sense. >> that's sut absolutely right, jonathan. a repeat poll that came out this week showed that. on his way out chrishailhy. she made a reference to the slavery controversy when nikki haley neglected to say slavery as for what caused the civil war just two weeks ago. and chris christie's made it very clear he doesn't want to endorse any candidate unless they can be outspoken and vociferous against former president donald trump, a standard he doesn't believe nikki haley has really hit quite yet. jonathan? >> nbc news campaign head live for us in iowa, we'll be talking to you again as the caucuses approach just a few short days away. >>> next here we're going to switch to business news and our friends at cnbc join us with a look at this morning's headlines and how the markets are shaping up just before the bell. we'll be right back with that. . we'll be right back with that. honey... honey... nyquil severe honey. powerful cold and flu relief with a dreamy honey taste. nyquil honey, the nighttime, sniffing, sneezing, couging, aching, fever, honey-licious, best sleep with a cold, medicine.

classic crack jonathan: do you think that has settled down more recently as the fed starts to engage in conversation about cutting interest rates? chris: did you see what happened after cpi and ppi? awe are backup. will it change once the fed starts talking? maybe, but that is a lot of volatility. jonathan: one is 10 basis points between friends? lisa: i am old enough to remember when it was 25 basis points. jonathan: there were massive moves in october. lisa: exactly. jonathan: relative to then, things are,. lisa: a friend of yours said, equity guys talking credit? you know spreads are too tight if that is the case. [laughter] someone who is bringing that up. jonathan: equity strategists focused on the bond market. lisa: what is the message from the bond market? this is the lack of clarity. lynn and chris talking about volatility in the two-year. if you look at credit, it is saying the all clear. how do you know which it is? chris: you do not know which it is. it goes back to this, some of the kids shows you used to see, which one of these things does not belong with the others? 92 basis points over does not belong with a lot of the other fed cutting. it does not belong with gdp o

a lot, lot more. i'm looking forward to this great conversation. we have chris, a maryland free-lance writer who will be doing the interview with jonathan eig. so please welcome jonathan eig. [applause] >> thank you. so a couple of nuggets before we get into the serious, first of all, an atlanta native. i'm just thrilled to be here talking to you about this book. but i've always been stalking you on twitter, and watching what you've been doing leading up to this event and i can't help but ask the first question. which is harder, writing a book or promoting one? >> i definitely prefer writing it i'm left alone and don't have anybody to blame, but myself if the social media world confuses me. i don't like it. if it's something you do, i'm happy to do it and having fun. >> we're happy to have you here in gaithersburg. i'd like to hit you with a two--parter. early in the book, one of king's dreams was to be a firefighter. my question to you was two-fold. the first part, can you imagine what it looked like if a young martin luther king, jr. showed up as a house fire and secondly, what would it have looked like if he had chosen to stay in that pro

a bounce-back performance. obviously staff chris paul and first leg room. and i mean freshly grown jonathan kominga look to take down james wiseman and his pistons. so wise and made his presence felt very early in the game. the pistons on the break. let's get to those highlights. that's what i mean. first, the groom, though, he cut his hair off overnight. you know. that by himself a bit. but talk about these highlights. obviously, there james was with the monster dunk on one he had 4 points. 3 rebounds on 15 minutes coming, though. he played angry tonight. he drives to the whole, throws it down. and will he found on the way how school three-point play right there? he finished with 11 points, 6 rebounds, but the warriors they live by 4th. the head steph curry picked it up in the 2nd half, 8 to 3 drives. the lane gets the contact. goes in all along with about ran up against it was all over the court tonight. he runs down the missed shot right here. get it out. the way you see that you can count those 3.19, points for klay on the night. but tonight, the pistons they for an 11 point deficit and

a part of that -- this is -- the. that is biden's to international jonathan. >>. chrisrs of this country equipment and ambition, we have to make sure that countries even consistent with international human rights. this is not -- well citron as one. about >> to make, it's unbelievable. so -- i would hope that we are concerned. we are sitting here, supply and that netanyahu government with the arms they need and in the process of stabbing hundreds of thousands of children. concerned it is too modest a word. we have got to act and we've got to act now and what merkley was talking about was -- not always about the making it impossible for trump -- , if you are a trump driver, deliver your goods -- >> right. >> -- but in addition to that, what is a gaza data at the border has made it extremely difficult for these trucks to get through. bottom line here is, we cannot turn our backs on the enormity of the suffering that is now taking place in gaza. we have got to act. >> you are a jewish american. your family -- came back hitler, you have talked about that. you have the closes

chris christie dropping out of the ra. jonathan, as hedid, he injected some fresh drama in the race. caught saying on a spent illion so far just on tv. spent 68 million so far. 59 million by desantis, and we've spent 12. i mean, who's punching above their weight and who's getting a return on their investment, y know. and she's going to get smoked, and you and iot know it. she's not up to this. >> she hasn't even been -- >> and she's still 20 points behind trump in new hampshire, right? >> yeah, oh, yeah. >> and he's still going to carry out right? >> desantis called me petrified that -- >> she's going to get smoked, desantis is petrified. christie is dropping out saying he wants to stop trump. what do you make of those comments presumably when he was referring to she talking about nikki haley. >> yeah, we go from fear and loathing, the hunter thompson book about the '72 campaign to smoked and petrified, the chris christie version of '24 pretty quickly. in like a lion, out like a lion. we can presume he was talking about nikki haley because she's the only she in the race. so when he talks about her gett

a breath of fresh air and regroup and before your next homestand here. >> it has to be. it has to be. >> now andrew wiggins, jonathan kuminga, chris paul are the names being mentioned the most in trade rumors. the deadline, again, is february eighth. they need to do something and do it quick. >> no kidding . hopefully they can turn around. >> the only sane person, maybe steph curry, right? >> absolutely, yeah, i have never seen one beat five, he needs help >> yeah. >> all right, vern, thanks. >>> still ahead after months of delays, dungeness crab season will finally open, and one in the bay area, one week from today, why fishermen still won't be entirely happy. >>> pg&e customers are pushing back against the latest planned rate hike. that's not all. >> we cannot and should not have to take on yet another financial burden like this. >>> the east bay city now hiring private security to patrol public areas amid an ongoing scandal at the police department.

we will see a lot of sophisticates don't believe they will do it. jonathan: we start this morning with chris, the co-cio. wonderful to catch up with you sir. there was a range of questions you asking. whether lead -- where the leadership will come from and 2024. where do you believe that leadership will come from? >> the leaders were the big tech enabled companies, they were safe havens. great places to hide out with political turmoil. we saw more of that turmoil but we have the fed at your back in 2024. an economy that will hit a soft patch. i think that gives some room for a broadening out of the market. small caps look great in december prayed that continues at least into the early part of 2024. a broadening of markets. tom: is there a part of value with all of the heritage that is growthy? >> we tend to look at those. growth is neither good nor bad and whether it adds value or not to the firm. we love growing companies. there is the cigar but investing flavor of value investing looking for companies that are not growing. we have plenty of companies as well. >> give us an example of a gro

a whole run of states. there's some plausible scenario the way things are breaking it turns out to hailey, trump in short order and then she has some remote chance. >> jonathan, what do you think? does chrisexit change the race in any meaningful way? >> no. no. unfortunately, that's the case. i mean, i don't agree with governor christie on a whole lot of things. but i thought his role as a candidate for the republican nomination was a an important one because he was fear less in taking the argument to the party against donald trump. and the fact that a person who is telling the truth about a four-times indicted former president shouldn't be the standard-bearer of the party, the party rejected him by not supporting him meaning chris christie. and so it's unfortunate that he had to get out of the race but there's no constituency for the truth telling that he has. >> let's talk about the biden campaign because "the washington post" reported this past weekend that foreman president barack obama has raised questions about the structure of president biden's re-election campaign. has even discussed this with president biden himself. david axelrod has been very public about his own criticisms abo

jonathan: do you want to teach chris christie about hot mics? tom: that would be another lesson. [laughter] jonathan: it happens, t.k. when you get comfortable having a microphone on you, it could happen. had some things to say about nikki haley and ron desantis. about how nikki haley would get smoked. to talk about what you spent on advertising and the return you've got from that. tom: but it is vintage chris christie. he has sort of been doing this for decades. jonathan: i love finding out what people actually think about a certain situation, never mind the varnish are sitting in front of people when the news conference goes live and you say the things that you think you have to say. i'm interested in what people actually think. i think that we got a little snippet yesterday. tom: i saw you in a conference call. he was in a conference call an hour ago. jonathan: equity futures on the s&p 500 are just about positive, up by 0.1 percent. good to see you. the 10 year, 3.99. from new york city, this is bloomberg. ♪ the first time you made a sale online with godaddy was also the first time you heard of a town named dinosaur, colorado. we just got an orde

jonathan kuminga the steal. and you know what he's going to do with it. kuminga 11 for 11. that ties chris mullin for most field goals in a warrior without a miss. he finished with 25, as did steph. klay had 24, kerr told the team. milojevic he would have wanted them to go out and kick some, but that's what they did and yes, what started with tears ended with a few smiles. the warriors win their first game in nine days, 134 to 112, so in jose state, hosting 25th ranked new mexico in college hoops time running down in the first half, myron amy junior from just past half court and he banks it in to beat the buzzer. amy finished with 24, but the spartans still trailed by 11 at the half. first bucket of the second half it's jamal mashburn junior and if that name sounds familiar yes he is the son of former nba player jamal mashburn. he had 17. lobo's. win 985 to 75 digits for the first jim harbaugh. he's leaving michigan and returning to the nfl to become the next head coach of the la chargers. it's no secret that harbaugh was the chargers first choice after leading the michigan wolverines to their first national title since 1

he's joined by mike barnicle, chris matthews and the jonathan lemire back with us as well. >> we have a of things as we sit here this morning? nikki haley obviously needs to pull off a miracle. is there a shot? >> she has a shot, but it's a long one. i remember in '68 it was the college kids coming here to oppose the war in vietnam and of course there were a lot of men versus women. nikki is doing much better with women. this is about class, about economics. i went to laconia last night in a rural area. i was overwhelmingly struck by the poor people, the people who are always democrats. these people have always been democrats. lining up for hours to get one last peek at donald trump, their hero. he says things like they're indicting me for you, i'm taking the bullet for you. i love it because i keep going up in the polls. it's clearly about that college versus non-college. i hate to see it, because the democratic party has always been for the working guy, working women. i think those people are aggrieved for a lot of economic, social reasons, being talked down to, condescended to by the

jonathan lemire, long suffering patriots fan is back with us as well. chris, let's go to you first. we were trying to figure out yesterday, mark halperin's two-way call, and you have arying to figure out what nikki haley was doing. only -- said she's going to do fine, she's going to win, but a lot of other people scratching their heads about what she is doing because she seems to be in a position where she could win this thing, but you know, she's not taking voters questions, or at least she wasn't earlier this week. >> i think she's going to have a lot more events today and i tell you that there is a character to each state. each state is different. we are iowa's out in the midwest, and new england, it is a different culture, and look at the history of this state. -- knocking off harry truman back in 1952, eisenhower coming in. hillary clinton making estate against barack obama. bill clinton up here, the comeback kid. there's such a history of this. mccarthy taking on johnson. the state loves to correct the mistakes made earlier, and what a politician like nikki haley says that they would like to correct it and they say, -- no, she was telling the truth, it's the o

this is a three decade old problem that has not been resolved in at least three decades. jonathan, the negotiations between secretary mayorkas, with chrisve right now this morning on it, but this issue isn't going to go away. it is going to play a huge, huge role in the primaries for the next two or three months. >> and as evidence of that, mike, we've had democrats call this out. democratic mayors of big cities, democratic governors, staunch biden allies who have been critical of the white house, saying more needs to be done here. our communities simply cannot handle this influx of migrants. now, there was a little bit of progress made before the holidays in the senate working group, and there is a sense that there's some good faith activities among republican senators to try to get some sort of deal, which, for now, remains linked to funding for israel and ukraine. there's certainly some republican senators who are strong on those issues and, therefore, want to get a deal done to fund our allies and, therefore, get something fixed at the border, as well. to this conversation, there is a growing skepticism the republicans in the house

you could see a moment if ron desantis wants to pull out and chris christie wants to pull out she is able to win new hampshire. but at the moment trump is still dominating the field. jonathane talked about what happened and did not happen with the defense secretary. it's important with what's happening on the ground in the middle east across the region. the rebels launching one of the most complex attacks today and u.s. forces and allies have been shooting down 18 drones in a barrage. just how tense are they in the red sea? annmarie: it is intense. you are seeing a lot of ships not going through the red sea. this will trickle down to consumers. things are incredibly intense in the red sea. we have seen the administration hit back. there's interceptions but we have not seen them go after houthis in yemen and that could be the next step. tom: the next step here assumes policy from the united states. it is our policy postponed or paused because of the uproar the pentagon? is all your reporting the things are normal and that debate in communication? annmarie: absolutely things continue. it is a machine but there is a lot of concern about the communication between the pentagon

. >> chris matthews, adrienne elrod, thank you both for being on. we'll see a lot more of you in the days to come. jonathant football. nbc sports soccer co-host of "men in blazers" our friend roger bennett. roger, pretty light schedule over the weekend. one to be sure, man city/new castle and the liverpool fans there's a fear of growing dread of inevitability, here comes city. >> it could be experience, jonathan, how you and other fans are learning, yes, the 2024 schedule kicked avenue with only half the teams playing. and half given a much-needed break. but half is all we need. a game long remembered in tapestries and epic greek poems from new castle, and in town, way north of the wall, proud passionate team taken over by the saudi arabia sovereign wealth. and they welcomed the defending champion manchester city going for the four-peat. a chance to promote city. leashing a flick of picket pocketry. it's like a swedish luke skywalker launching a torpedo. and then astonishing finish. this moment, as surprising as what mike lendl on fox. rolled the ball with awe new ground new fringe. he looks like prince ha

jonathan lemire, long suffering patriots fan back with us as well. chris, let's go to you first. we were trying to figure out yesterday you have a people scratching their heads about what she's doing, because she seems to be in a position where she could win this thing, but she's not taking voters' questions, or at least she wasn't earlier this week. >> i think she's going to have a lot more events today. there's a character to each state. new england is a different culture. look at the history of this state. eisenhower coing in. hillary clinton making a stand against barack obama. bill clinton up here with the comeback kid. there's such a history of this. this state loves to correct the mistakes made earlier. when a politician like nikki haley says they like to correct it, no, she was telling the truth. when a politician says the truth accidentally, they have to apologize for it. she's telling the truth. i think new england is going to correct what happened in iowa. i think you're going to see an upset here. it's going to be an interesting race. if she says something between now, say, and sunday, it starts to show she's got a l
