alexis: thanks, laura. laura: amid tension over north koreas nuclear program, representatives from pyongyang and the u.s. addressed the un's security council today. the secretary of state said the north must stop threatening behavior for a sustained period before talks can take place. pyongyang's envoy claims his country was no threat. themore on this, i spoke to bbc's u.n. reporter at u.n. headquarters a short time ago. it is pretty rare, isn't it, to hear north korea's representatives speak in front of the un security council? what was his message? reporter: absolutely. the ambassador usually doesn't engage the security council, and he was really trying to paint the u.s. is the main problem in the region. he said his country was a responsible nuclear power, a peaceloving state. he said the program was set up as a self-defensive measure against the united states' nuclear program. he promised members of the security council that is country posed no threat unless their own rights were infringed upon. now, th

and alexis flaus and let's start with you on this conversation. "the washington post" reporting today, not a single aide or adviser was present at the table -- alluding again to this 30 minute interview with "the new york times" -- and not a single aide or adviser knew about it in advance. this is pretty part and parcel with the way this president has acted in the past. but when he's down there in mar-a-largo, it shows here alexis that the president does get off the rails if you will in these discussions. >> well one of the things that a lot of people have learned to enjoy mar-a-largo as their club, including "the new york times" reporter, is that we know the president is very apt to be affable and walk around his club and enjoy talking to people while he's having a meal there. and in this particular case, mike schmidt of the new york times had the perfect invitation, which was to have lunch with chris ready sh the ceo of news max and chris ready knew exactly what would happen, which was that he would introduce "the new york times" reporter, who h

--en livermore, un homenaje a "alexys garcia" de 25 aÑos se levanto en su honor., ella es la segundaortal de un fuerte accidente donde iban 5 personas abordo de un auto el 22 de noviembre sobre el bulevard "stanley"; y aunque "alexys" habia sobrevivido la colision, anoche sucumbio a sus heridas de acuerdo a la oficina del forense en el condado de alameda. --"violet agamau" de 16 años murio en la escena. --lauren davis de 26 años, conducia el "kia" que se volco varias veces, ella fue arrestada bajo sospechas de conducir bajo la influencia; la fiscalia del condado todavia esta revisando la evidencia en este caso por lo que no se le ha impuesto cargos a davis. --al parecer, davis perdio el control del vehiculo, se volco y alexys garcia salio expulsada causansole lesiones que resultaron en su muerte. --documentos de la corte muestran que la conductora ya tenia 2 arrestos previos por conducir intoxicada pero estos se redujeron a cargos por conducir de manera imprudente por lo que muchos se preguntan por que es que con este historial, davis tenia permitido estar tras un volante y la organi

alexis, the bill seems to be moving on. alexis: lurching. robert: how did mitchell mcconnell and programs president trump get these department of sit hawks to come along? alexis: it's a little of what mitch mcconnell disparaged in 2010. trying to buy off votes in his own -- about specific concerns of specific provisions. for instance, if six different colleagues had concerns, he listened to those and adjusted the pass threws for senator johnson and in the end he managed to pull together the votes to bring it to the floor. one of the things that i think is interesting is that the republicans are rushing this through in such a way that the senators we know are still trying to read what's in it. even though this the t is hurdling now through to a final vote. robert: and there's a lot in it. it is a massive tax package but there's so much more in the legislation. >> so much more and really, the most version of the legislation dropped an hour or two before we were on this show. 500 pages. you mentioned one, health care. an individual mandate repe

she has said that she would withdraw if alexi's candidate -- candidacy was not allowed. she is widely seen as a kremlin candidate, a kremlin project, one the kremlin has put forward to make elections seem legitimate according -- i putting every opposition power. she has said things like the crimea attic extension was against international law. that is very customer -- controversial. that is one to watch so far. her campaign has not said anything on social media about this newest news. >> that is emily reported for us in moscow. ; staying in moscow, at least four people have been killed, others injured after a bust out into a busy pedestrian underpass. moscow authorities have ruled out terrorism and have detained the driver of the bus for questioning. >> cctv footage shows the bus leaving the side of a busy multilane highway and plunging into a pedestrian underpass near the metro station. several victims were crushed beneath the wheels as the vehicle careened down the steps. emergency services rush to the scene to recover the bus, there is no evidence so far of any terror

as for alexis. she lives this one day at a time.ut hopes the marijuana means the seizure monster will never come back. >> while you are out holiday shopping you may take note. nearly everything you buy, has at one point or another been transported by truck. bad news is the industry is losing tens of thousand of drivers each year. kris van cleave reports. they say truckers drive the american economy. if that's the case, we could be in trouble. 50,000 more drivers are needed by the end of 2017. that number could more than triple in ten years. >> when we are buying more stuff out there. cars, fridges, name it. putting out trucks. that will exacerbate the shortage. >> bob costello, the chief economist for the american trucking associations. >> once we hit 100,000 mark, we start to see problems throughout the economy. >> product shortages. delivery day lays and higher prices. demographic bees hind the short stall. lifestyle, extended period away from home can be a deterrent. i have a box sleeping in the back of my truck most nights. you

robert: what about healthcare, alexis? the president talks about healthcare and a bipartisan plan but got rid of the individual mandate. is this the same gap we're talking about where the president says bipartisan this but democrats aren't on board? alexis: healthcare is so complicated into 2018 because you have a senate majority leader who's allergic to the concept of dealing with healthcare again, right? you also have some senators who are talking about legislating on healthcare in a different way, to shore up the affordable care act, what to do to rescue the premiums and subsidies to support the affordable care act. president trump, however, did he talk about middle class tax relief? no, he talked about how proud he was that they gutted and hadn't talked enough about gutting the heart of obamacare and that it would crater after that. so -- and in the interview, he also talked about another concept that has to do with healthcare associations which the rule making has not been written but he was talking about, in a garble

. >> let me get to alexi, alexis laid out the concerns for the democratic voters, but what does it mean for the gop back here in washington or around the county? >> republican senators will have to answer for roy moore's behavior in 2018 and the entire time he's in the senate if he wins. on top of already having to answer again for donald trump's behavior. so while donald trump can pause this as roy moore will vote with us on everything we need. that's fine. >> and he probably will. he'll probably go against mitch mcconnell a lot just like the president would want him to. >> but he'll have to answer for his behavior, that looks terrible for republicans in liberal states in 2018. >> i think we are losing sight of the fact that roy moore's history is much more than these accusations that he faced during this campaign. he was a uniquely extreme politician before all this cam along. >> the question is whether muslims should be in congress? whether 9/11 was our fault because we are not religious enough as a country? >> he was effectively ignoring a judge's ruling in favor of his religious vi

this is not a calm or happy day to be on the president's legal team. >> alexi, so let's just say that potentially this is the first time we're hearing the president say this. that the fbi was part of this discussion and why flynn was let go. but he did say to our own lester holt that -- again regarding flynn's firing and i'm quoting here. everything plays in. everything plays no it. and he's alluding to the decision to let flynn go. does that give him some space. is that the wiggle room that maybe he did mean the fbi there. >> right. so he's been pretty vague throughout time. and the one pattern of behavior we should point to is how he's so loyal to flynn through and through. whether that is asking comey to let the investigation of flynn go, as we mentioned earlier, or telling people at a press conference that flynn is a very good man. he's been very loyal to him. which is curious now in retrospect saying he wasn't that way with paul manafort or papadapoulos or anyone else swept up. but by saying things like he lied to vice president pence and other things that we know, that gives him
