>> martha: bill bennett, why don't we see more of this side of donald trump and do you think we will now? and have you ever seen -- compare this to your own history in the white house, bill. >> yeah, well, no. i think it's quite extraordinary. and unique. yeah, you are talking about that meeting at blare house with obama. but that was much more staged than this. a lot of rehearsed remarks. i have been to a lot of cabinet meetings that were more rehearsed than. this marc put his finger on it. it's exactly right. how do you know the difference between a straight stick and crooked stick put a straight stick next to a crooked stick. dr. wolf i refer to him sarcastically dr. wolff practicing psychiatrist. you know, when the members went in there they didn't see soft padded walls or donald trump pulling tea on a happy unbirthday with a big hat. the man is perfectly in control of his senses. this was a great exhibition of his sanity of his leadership. and we even got indications from these guys sitting around the table of where they are. often you don't until this final vote comes then you

issues with world leaders critical of his america first message but former education secretary bill bennettone in davos couldn't have gone better for the president and it is a good thing the cameras were there to capture it. >> we would have heard trump met with a number of ceos, was cordial but distance, in fact it was not, it was extremely friendly, they went around the table and anheuser-busch, nestlÉ, huge companies and they not only said congratulations on being president, congratulations on your tax bill, getting fat through and then they said we are coming to america to invest $2 billion, 10,000 jobs all over america. this was a tribute to the president's leadership, glad we saw it life because i'm worried how it might be reported. >> the president's toughest critics admit he made an impression. washington post headline reading trump windsor global leaves at davos, all it took was $1.5 trillion tax cut. the new york times, quote, trump and davos not exactly best friends but not enemies either. she might be the next president, standing newly revealed text messages show fbi officials w

i talked to bill bennett earlier.intain the strength in him that makes him different. that's the line he will have to walk tonight, tucker. >> tucker: the president, and the state of the union addresses. do you have any idea what he will cover there? >> i think obviously he has a great store tore to tell about isis and what happened with isis in iraq and syria. he will talk about our commitment in afghanistan about the problems with pakistan. and north korea will be a central focus of the foreign policy part. and throughout the night, there will be moments that people will remember and you may see a big foreign policy moment in the speech. his bigest focus will be on the economy and what he sees as a turn around directly to the tax law. >> it is just one thing on the policy front. one thing that divides him from previous.s, he believes that there is a connection between the money that is given from the united states and the relationship he has with the country and historically those two things have been separate in te

bill bennett said something interesting this morning. he said i haven't found it in my heart to forgive him for the things that he said. if donald trump comes around and is able to forgive him and move on and work with him then certainly he will. >> i think mitt romney is going to need to explain to the people of utah why he is wanting to run. he would be one of the oldest senators ever elected. i think he will run. i think he will win. i didn't think anybody of any substance will run against him. >> sandra: will he align with trump? >> on issues that he will agree with undoubtedly, if he does run and probably announce fairly shortly, then i think he will win. >> sandra: one indication of that, let's look at romney's twitter account. this was last evening. anybody who follows twitter you see these little changes and they can be very telling. here had you shortly after his announcement of retirement. mitt romney changed the location of his account from massachusetts to holladay, utah. >> mitt romney got accused of being a carpet bagger gu

bill. jeff bennett, i want to start with the man who made the trip down pennsylvania avenue from the capitol to the white house. that being chuck schumer. what do we know about this last-minute meeting between president trump and minority leader? >> we know that in just about's last hour, david, president trump reached out to senator schumer, the leader of senate democrats, invited him to the white house. senator schumer is now here. my colleague hallie jackson saw him just outside the west wing. asked if he might be able to broker some sort of deal, too void a government shutdown. the response from senator schumer is, i hope so. what's interesting about this is just earlier, just a few hours ago, we heard from a couple of white house officials, including mick mulvaney, the director of the office of management and budget. he was preemptively shoveling blame for this shutdown that hasn't happened yet onto democrats saying they haven't been specific about just what they want. we know they want a deal to enshrine daca protections into law. but he said beyond that, no real legislative text. take

would i go with bob bartley with the "wall street journal," bill bennett, secretary of education, theyow us off how broad-minded davos is. look, this is not a trump audience but trump going over there and talking straight to them about what's really going on in the united states, how the united states is the world leader, not only in the security side but particularly on the economic side, i think it is going to be a home run, a grand slam one. really. stuart: just love it. i hope he speaks on friday during our show time because i want to see it live. ed fuelner, we'll see you again very soon, sir. thank you very much indeed. >> thank you, stuart. stuart: by the way speaking of senator schumer we unearthed what might be called a gem from internet. we have on tape for senator schumer calling for end to chain migration. he calls for a merit-based immigration system. yes, we will play it for you in our next hour. chen. so that means no breakfast? voya. helping you to and through retirement. on thousands of hotels, cars and things to do. like the fairmont mayakoba for 59% off. everything y

conservatives used to care about the culture. 20 years ago bill bennett came out with a book called "age". it was directed at bill clinton. right now a president is corroding and corrupting and in some respects destroying our culture of governance. basic things, respecting the officers and the agent is who serve them in our intelligence community in the fbi. earlier in the program you were talking about libel laws, basic fundamental responsibility to preserve and protect the constitution. the fact that as you were mentioning, this is a president who lies five times a day. he lies voluntarily, involuntarily. >> this is not normal and not good for our country. >> what worries me is that trump isn't -- conservatives think they're going to pocket policy victories and trump is going to go away. trump is going to create a culture of governance that's going to stay with us for generations. >> all you need is one member of the judicial system or the intel community to feel like he or she needs to protect himself and to do something just as bad back, and the system starts to crumble. >> and br

. >> bill clinton hires bob bennett, one of the big shot lawyers in washington. >> if this is a nothingase, why do you bring in a nuclear bomb to try to blow up the other side when all you can do it is with a rifle. >> that same afternoon president clinton met with the prime minister of malaysia but it was the lawsuit, not foreign policy that the reporters wanted to hear about. >> i'm going back to work. i'm not going to dignify this by commenting on it. in june the president's lawyer filed a motion asking the court to postpone the matter until after the clinton presidency. >> they make an interesting legal argument that the .president ought to be immune from civil litigation while in office. >> bennett argued that if lawsuits like this were allowed to proceed it would invite thousands of copycats. >> do you as a citizen want the president of the united states spending all of his time in litigation with lawyers being deposed? >> and if there was one thing that washington, d.c. was not lacking in the spring of 1994, it was people asking questions. get ready for centrum micro-workouts. co

bill. and ashley bennett in new jersey, who beat an incumbent who mocked the women's march by wondering whether list by having more women at the table. so i urge everyone here to support women candidates at every level. imagine, just imagine for one ifent what it would be like we had 51% of women in congress. do you think we would still be fighting for birth control? no. do you state -- still think we will be fighting to end the institutional biases to allow sexual assault to fester in the shadows and remain pervasive across this country? no. do you believe it would be so hard to change the workplace rules that were born in the madman era by creating a national pay leave plan? no. and do you think we would allow dreamers to be used as political pawns in a manufactured government shutdown? no. democracy hasour ever worked is when regular people just like you stand up and demand it. do not wait for a white knight to march for washington or the party to solve the problem. you will be waiting forever. it is the grassroots. it is you who will create the message, who will launch the campaign, who wil

john bennett, the potential of a clean daca bill. i think the president is going to have to feel like he is getting something. he is not just going to sign a clean daca bill despite what he said to senator feinstein. host: he said it should be an effort of love. >> one minute he is saying it should be a bill of love. the next he is signing -- siding with kevin mccarthy. he is tweeting that it has to have funding for his wall. really a complicated situation for legislators right now. in both parties how do you write legislation to get the signature of the president who on tuesday says he will sign a clean daca and seems to side with senator feinstein of all people and later he is tweeting that it has to have full funding for his border wall. there is no consistency right now from the president. i don't think a clean bill is going to get attached to a short-term spending bill that a few weeksthere is and they get f here on thursday night. it's goingit's going to be a loe consultative and the president will have to feel like he is getti

bill. >> but i want to listen to senator michael bennett yesterday because he is talking about the crs as you are and how truss trat frustrating it is in general. >> i'm very inclined to vote against the continuing resolution. for one reason, because i don't think the government should be running on continuing resolutions. since i've been here in the ten years that i've been here, we passed splik omething like 36 continuing resolutions and now we're doing work that should have been done before the enkd end of the year and we're proposing to delay it another two weeks. nothing is going to change over the next two weeks. so we should do our work. >> listening to that, it makes you say you knew this was coming. why weren't you better prepared to do more than offer -- >> it is so funny that you ask that question because i was talking to the congressman about that in the greenroom. this reminds me of the government shutdown back when george h.w. bush was ' occurre. and my hope is that they pass a cr to allow them more negotiating time. the president has talked about the economy and the economy

bennett, thank you. >>> i want to bring in bill kristol, charlie galoud. are these nothing more, these comments, than a distraction? what do you make of the fact that senators perdue and cotton say, quote, these -- they do not recall the president saying these comments specifically. >> thanks. i don't think they're a distraction at all. i think they reveal the underlying sentiment that's driving immigration policy out of this white house. i've said this before on this network, i don't to want attribute this to anybody. everybody who holds the position around immigration. but i think what's really animating this debate is this deep anxiety about the browning of the country. and so what donald trump revealed in his tweet and his subsequent lie about what he said in the white house is he really wants to whiten the nation. he's concerned aboutat migratin country. with regards to senators perdue and cotton, senator cotton shouldn't accuse others of not engaging in good faith. think about how many times we criticized attorney general sessions for saying, i don't

also with us is matt bennett, former white house deputy assistant to president bill clinton. let me start with you, jeff and i talking about immigration and the framework we've gotten from the white house. at this point what questions do you have about that plan, what are you looking to hear from the white house on tuesday night? >> look, david, i think a lot of americans are going to wonder how serious is the administration with trying to pass comprehensive immigration. this is something that republicans and democrats have attempted to tackle since george w. bush's administration. we also know that the president does not like to be unpopular. right now he's getting a lot of negative backlash from his base as it relates to the proposal that his administration released several days ago, so i'm wondering if the president is going to stick with the proposal that's currently out there or if we're going to see the administration slowly attempt to walk that back so that the president can appease his most ardent supporters. >> let me ask for your sense of what the white house's role

in the house, then it never made it into the final appropriations bill in the senate, so our senators -- both senator gardner and bennettre working to see if they can get that into the senate bill as well. host: do you think you can get enough senates -- senators from other states, lawmakers to sign on? when i first started this, colorado, oregon, and washington state were sort of out there legalizing recreational marijuana, but it seems the floodgates have open. california just started selling recreational marijuana. thatnt, the governor says he will sign a bill that was just past. host: congresswoman diana degette, we will be watching the debate as well as immigration. democrat from colorado. thank you for your time. guest: appreciate it. host: the house gaveling in early for bundesliga business. er. the chair lays before the house a communication from the peaker. the clerk: the speaker's room, washington, d.c., january 11, 2018. i hereby appoint the honorable michael k. simpson to act as speaker pro tpore on this day. signed, paul d. ryan, speaker of the house of representatives. the speaker pro tempore: the prayer w

we reach an agreement on the bill and senator lindsey graham, myself, senator jeff flake, senator cory gardner senator bob menendez of newpa jersey and senator bennettf colorado we agreed and we came together. it was not easy. parts of it i hate and i gave on some areas and so today. we came to compromise and come up with solutions and we anxiously call the president two days after our meeting and on january 11 i called him and he invited me to and third he didn't call me back in two months and i couldn't believe it. i said mr. present, we have a bipartisan agreement and it is all four elements you wanted us to hit and senator graham will come down the white house to explain it to you. he said good, i don't want to slow walk as he said. let's get this done. great. t'then i get a call the presidet would like you to accompany senator graham. not to go into details what happened next we got there they have been widely reported but i will not return to that whole experience but it is fair to say that president rejected our bipartisan approach in its entirety. i was disappointed in a little i was stunned because he asked us to do just what we had done. h

helped send the short term funding bill to the senate, but first the latest from you are on team of reporters and we start with garrett haake on capitol hill, jeff bennett is at the white house for us. garrett, any hope on the hill right now that a deal could come from schumer's meeting with the president? >> reporter: there is definitely some degree of optimism including from senator schumer himself. and also maybe a small degree of concern from republicans who don't have any of their capitol hill leadership or any republican member of congress in this meeting as we all know, the president tends to take some direction in from whoever the last person is he talks to in these situations. so having him one-on-one with chuck schumer in the room could indeed produce a result that inverts a shutdown, but not something that the republicans are excited about. there are a number of different negotiations almost simultaneously. remember there were two working groups trying to come up with a daca solution, there is leadership members in the senate side trying to figure out what democrats want. and then there is the lindsey graham/dick durbin group who are still ho

bill. right now there are not enough votes in the senate to pass. joining me, senator michael bennettk you for joining us. how would you vote? would you vote with donnelley and manchin? or against the continuing resolution? >> i'm very inclined to vote against the continuing resolution. >> why? >> for one reason because i don't think the government should be running on continuing resolutions. since i've been here, in the ten years i've been here, we've passed something like 36 continuing resolutions. now we're doing work that should have been done before the end of the year. and we're proposing to delay it for another two weeks. nothing will change over the next two weeks so we should do our work. i want to talk about daca but the results of the continuing resolutions is that our military cannot do the war planning it needs to do. it has airplanes that are broken. they cannot get parts because of the stupid budgeting. and if they can't get parts, they can't train pilots because the pilots can't fly. we've cut domestic discretionary spending by 35% as a percentage of gdp because of the

some of whom are still on the committee including bennett and isaacson, warring, hatch and others. now the bill is to reauthorize for a second time. today's hearing is the second we have had this year. last week we heard from the administration on recommendations of advancing the reauthorization of the act including from the assistant secretary for preparedness and response, the food and drug administrator and the centers for disease control administration. in the middle of flu season, it is critical we reauthorize the act before many provisions expire in september. i hope we will do this in a bipartisan way and i expect this tradition with the law and the committee on this on almost all of our major bills. people are not as aware of the , iastation of the flu believe the figures are between 12000 and 50,000 americans die of flu every year. dr. collins has talked to us expediting of the universal flu vaccine which he sees soon. tennessee has seen heartbreaking stories as the flu spread across the state and the country. our state already in this season, a pregnant woman and three children have d

john bennett, the potential of a clean daca bill. think the president is going to have to feel like he is getting something. he is not just going to sign a clean daca bill despite what he said to senator feinstein. host: he said it should be an effort of love. >> one minute he is saying it should be a bill of love. the next he is signing -- siding with kevin mccarthy. he is tweeting that it has to have funding for his wall. really a complicated situation for legislators right now. in both parties how do you write legislation to get the signature of the president who on tuesday says he will sign a clean daca and seems to side with senator feinstein of all people and later he is tweeting that it has to have full funding for his border wall. there is no consistency right now from the president. i don't think a clean bill is going to get attached to a short-term spending bill that a few weeksthere is and they get f here on thursday night. it's goingit's going to be a loe consultative and the president will have to feel like he is getting

i want to thank senators durbin, graham, bennett, gardner, menendez, and flake who have put together a compromise bill in the senate which is gaining momentum. after working on this for five months, i know just how hard it is to come up with a compromise. i just want to thank these senators for what they have done. the problem solvers caucus continues to work on a plan and i'm hopeful that we will have one imminently. because time is running short. i was very happy to hear congressman gutierrez right here from this podium a few minutes ago endorse the idea of a compromise, even though it's not -- not what he wants, but we need to protect these daca recipients. we have to break the status quo in washington. the bickering and the gridlock which gets in the way of good solutions for our country. this solution on daca can and should get done. if only we could get away from the rhetoric and use some common sense. unfortunately, common sense is not common in washington. to get my colleagues past the bickering and the rhetoric. do what's right for the american people, fix daca and let's move on and do great

bill but it also deals with daca as well. >> also a bipartisan immigration meeting on the senate side of the capitol this afternoon. democrat dick durbin and mike bennett, republicans plind si graham, jeff flake and corey gardner. >> shepard: we're hearing about a possible plan to avoid a government shutdown. >>ts government runs out of money late friday night the 19th. talk among republicans of the need of a short-term funding extension to give them more time to negotiate a long term funding agreement. this hour you have got four of the key players in the house and the senate meeting. they're talking about immigration and they also will be talking a bit about government funding. and earlier, the senate democratic leader, chuck schumer, talked about pushing for some of his own democratic priorities. >> the republican majority which conveniently forgot its long history of opposing deficits when passing a $1.5 trillion tax bill cannot in good conscience turn around and complain about deficits here. >> so you have many republicans here on capitol hill who are ready to spend more money on defense, on rebuilding the military, dangerous world facing threats

with michael bennett and a number -- bob menendez and schumer and mccain and jeff flake and it took us six months to put it together. we don't have six months for the daca -- >> look at the bill on the -- >> well, you mention add number of factors that are going to be controversial, as steny mentioned. >> you're going to negotiate. maybe we'll agree and maybe we won't. it's possible we can agree with you. there should be no reason for us not to get this done. chuck, i will say, when this group comes back, hopefully with an agreement, this group and others, from the senate, from the house, come back with an agreement, i'm signing it. i mean, i will be signing it. i'm not going to say, oh, gee, i want this or i want that. i'll be signing it. i have a lot of confidence in the people in this room you're going to come out with something really good. senator, would you like to say something? diane? >> i would. as you know, we tried for comprehensive immigration reform in the senate. it was on the the floor. there were a number of amendments that got a lot of attention in the judiciary committee. and then the house didn't take it up. i think there needs to be a willingness on both s

bennett. they were part of the original gang of eight back in 2013 that brokered the bipartisan immigration bill that year that passed and then was ignored by the house. and then i would watch republicans like john cornyn and tom cotton from texas and arkansas that are good gauges of where the g.o.p.'s reaction could be. you got some other people around the table that aren't normally involved, the moderate democrat from the border district in texas, a democrat who's met with the president at least twice already in other meetings. and steny hoyer and kevin mccarthy, the leaders from the house. what you're not going to see there are the big four congressional leaders for whatever reason. the white house didn't want to invite them and it's partly designed to gauge the rank and files of reaction and potential parameters in this conversation. and so, if something comes of today's arrangement and perhaps he brings in the big four later again this week and say here's what i heard, why don't we do this? lindsey graham said to me last night who will also be there said look, this issue will be pretty clea

bennett. the president's lawyer at the time, to obtain an apology. we came close but the white house blew up the deal and we had no alternative but to file a lawsuit. >> bill a government shutdown, an eventual impeachment in the white house -- in the house against the president. all that came four or six years later, right? >> right. it was quite a time. in between there we had the supreme court that ruled no president has a right to immunity from a civil lawsuit unrelated to their office. >> bill: when you look at this deposition that bill clinton gave to ken starr's team. that was the moment where, you know, the tense of the word be was desifered. do you know whether or not president trump talks to robert mueller, did you see that deposition as a perjury trap? >> it can't be perjury if you're telling the truth. i think it is bill clinton doing his best at the time to avoid accountability. he later admitted that he lied to the grand jury. and that formed the basis of the impeachment charge. so there are a lot of facts that if you want to go back to trump now, there are a lot of facts that presumably president trump would need to master but he knows where
