now, herb, alex was a little cynical about the letter from charles schumer to the leaders of the republicanst's very unlikely that schumer is going to be cooperative. however, if you're going to have a meeting, there has to be something to the discuss. are they discussing pre-existing cases, the new fund for those people who have a pre-existing condition? there are issues that can be, i think, laid out very nicely in a meeting. and very well true, i mean, may very well be true that the moderate republicans and the democrats have an awful lot in common. if that is the case, you get to the 51 votes, that's what you need. and i think i am encouraged. stuart: 51 votes. >> yes. stuart: i'm with you on this one. thanks, sir. >>> now, i've got a breaking news development on a case you may have been following. a woman who sent her then-boyfriend dozens of text messages urging him to committet suicide, which he eventually did, has been found guilty of involuntary manslaughter. that verdict just coming in. >>> and now this, president trump tweeting this morning about firing of james comey, continues t

the statement lastly, i've got to address, he did bring up charles schumer, and he basically brought the fact that he doesn't believe that schumer, in particular, is serie talks about how democrats would like to sit down and come up with some kind of resolution. what does that say about the president's view on any sort of bipartisanship when it comes to health care and his, i suppose, lack of confidence in the democratic leadership? >> well, you know, let me preface this by saying, of course it would be great to have bipartisan folks working on the bill to get something to the american people. but to what he said, i think he is right. you have seen chuck schumer on cameras, on these very cameras, bashing the president consistently over and over again. so i hope he is serious, i hope he wants to come to the table and what is right for the american people. they know that the aca and obamacare is flawed. 11 talking about it for years but have done nothing about it. i do hope they come to the table. that is best for the american people. >> julie: i want to shift gears now regarding syria

encouraging investment and risk-taking they will back off because they are afraid of criticism from charles schumer? what a bunch -- i will stop there. david: carol, getting back to your point trying to get a free market back in health care because it is pushed out time and time again over past eight years, they want to expand health savings accounts and medical savings accounts by allowing people to deduct from their taxes the money that they have to pay because of these high deductibles. do you think that at least is a good idea? >> i think it is one component. i don't think it's a total solution to the problem. the biggest problem we face all along, there isn't choice or there isn't competition amongst the states throughout the country to, if i live in illinois i can't buy a great plan if based out of new york city. having choice for me. something affordable and leads to care, that has to be part of the solution, regardless what other components are in there. melissa: two states and a number of cities across the country are set to hike the minimum wage tomorrow, but a new study from university o

i want to talk about the democrats and how they have come out against it so firmly, including charles schumerho came out moments ago. we broadcast that life saying basically this bill is meaner than the house bill and also, you had house minority leader nancy pelosi who came out and basically accuse the republicans of trying to sneak in their tax reform under the guise of health care. how are they making these accusations before actually reading the bill? >> ultimately, they are relying upon intelligence from a few people who had seen the bill, if you staffers who have been involved. those senate republicans have hundreds of staffers who work for them and people they relying on. ultimately, when you consider the overall substance procedure of the bill, it's an unfortunate day in the history of the united states congress. from what's inside the bill, we can predict from a democratic perspective that would be objectionable and procedurally, there is very little justification for the way the procedure has been carried thus far. i agree with paul ryan who says you have to draft a bill before you

that will please most democrats, like charles schumer, who said he wanted an open session.here was talk of keeping it behind closed doors, because of some of the matters that they would be delving into, but that will be taking place in open session. the cameras will be there. you can be as well. also, a major controversy over a shakespeare play. why sponsors are backing out on this new york production of "julius caesar" ." it also, president trump has been in office since january cap, but today he will have his only second full cabinet meeting. that's in part because of the length of time it took to get his cabinet officers confirmed. that schedule for today at 2:30. e insurance with geico! goin' up the country. love mom and dad' i'm takin' a nap. dude, you just woke up! ♪ ♪ i'm goin' up the country, baby don't you wanna go? ♪ ♪ i'm goin' up the country, baby don't you wanna go? ♪ geico motorcycle, great rates for great rides. 4 out of 5 people who have a stroke, their first symptom... is a stroke. 80 percent of all strokes and heart disease? preventable. and 149 dollars is

that's according to new york senator charles schumer. he says that the plan the president announced last week would give airlines too much control over costs. under the plan, president trump wants to separate air traffic control operations from the f-a-a. he says that would increase safety and reduce passenger wait times. a 13-member board would oversee the system. but this morning critics are worried this would give airlines more power to raise fees for passengers. ( mark ) new this morning the city of washington d-c and the state of maryland are planning to sue president trump. the lawsuit claims that the president violated anti-corruption clauses in the constitution by accepting millions of dollars from foreign governments after he took office. the district attorney for maryland say the president broke a promise to keep his businesses separate from his administration. the president had said that his businesses would be run by his sons in order to avoid a conflict of interest. the white house has not yet responded to this lawsuit. ( ma

democratic senator charles schumer put out a challenge saying essentially, you have to abandon all your abandon any cuts in medicaid, and then we can talk. that is kind of a nonstarter, isn't it? >> basically his opinion agree to all of obamacare and keep it, and then we'll agree to maybe tweak some things around the edges to fill further increase the government's control over health care. that is complete nonstarter. the fact is, unfortunately there are no democrats willing to work with us on this bill, on this alternative. so we've got to do it ourselves. david: now that leads some people to say what will happen long term? say democrat becomes president in the next presidential election, house and senate go over just one body goes over to the democratic side, are we going through this whole process ad infinitum back and forth because our health care system couldn't take that? >> no, that's right. the democrats whether or not they will admit it, they have probably learned a lesson, done extremely badly in almost every election since they passed obamacare over will of american people. t

senate minority leader charles schumer addressed the american jewish community earlier this week in washington dc.

attorney from new york is actually in the audience, i'm told, a guest of charles schumer. >> jim acostaside lawyer is there who is leading the defense team for the president. his most important role it seems to me today is any time he sees the president reaching he should say mr. president put the phone down, back away from the television. don't do anything. because then it will become imperilling. we have seen already the president has a pension for infrastructu infrastructure. he digs big holes and he will continue to dig if he is allowed to comment freely on everything he hears today. >> let's go back to walt. walt? >> thanks very much. we have a special guest, the senator from maryland, a member of the foreign relations committee. thanks very much for joining us. >> what is the single most important thing you want to learn? >> i think you are going to see the director to the camera talk about how uncomfortable he was. the president put him in a very difficult position with private meetings, asking him questions about loyalty and asking him to stop an investigation. he clearly felt v

the reason they're having to move fast is because, charles schumer is slowing down the senate, using the full 30 hours, dragging it out. the american people want action, and they have had enough. >> mack >> julie: simon, what will happen? >> a lot of this is fine on the present. this is bad legislation. makes the health care system we have right out far worth. big tax cuts for the wealthy people. a lot of people watch on the show right now, it's a bad bill. that is why it is failing. it's one of the most unpopular bills ever proposed in the modern history. >> julie: obamacare is -- >> obamacare is not failing. if you read cdl, the markets are not failing. >> julie: rising premiums do not work for those who have no money. >> matt, sammy, there much, much more. i am julie banderas. here is shepard. ♪ 3:00 on capitol hill, were senator republicans are saying they will not vote on health care bill this week. at least not before the fourth of july recess. president from calling in all the public and senators now force it down an hour from now. to talk about what they will do next. i have

charles schumer asked the senate -- came to the microphone, here is what he had to say.he republican bill is rotten at the core. the american people are not big tax breaks for the wealthiest of americans, nor are they for dramatically cutting their health care. abouts why the bill has 17% popularity in america, and even trump voters do not like it. that is not going to change with any tweak that wins over this senator or that. last-minuteat amendments are offered, the bill will force americans to spend more of their paychecks on to receive fewer benefits so that the wealthiest americans pay less in taxes. until republicans abandon that core, that rotten core, they will not succeed in winning the american people over, and it makes it much less likely that they will succeed in getting a bill done a week from now, a month from now, a year from now. the ultimate reason this bill failed is because the american people just did not like it. it is not what america stands for. host: and before that, the announcement that the health care -- the debate on health care vote would be

is it possible that this unhappiness with nancy pelosi and charles schumer could result in some moderate and in the senate voting for the republican health care plan? in other words, ending obstruction and brecking ranks and some vote for the health plan. >> i think on tax reform that's very, very possible at this point. we're already seeing a lot of behind of scenes discussions that weren't there before the georgia election to be frank. i think on obamacare it's going to be tough except for one or two votes in the senate. senator manchin from west virginia and that will be a little tougher because obamacare is such a-- in the democratic party is such a holy document, that it's tough to go against that. stuart: you see, david, we have an audience of investors, they don't care about the nitty-gritty in the parliamentary maneuvering. they want to know are we going to get a done deal on health care and tax reform and i'm reading between the lines and you're saying, yes, we're going to get both. >> i think it's better than 50-50 on health care and i think it's 100% on tax reform, i really do

charles: real quick, on case law, 24 democrats did vote yes. >> it is possible, that some will vote yes. but trump is president. schumer will do what he can. think that any democrats who votes for a trump tough on immigration law will have a hard time with the base. i would caution skepticism. and kate's law does not go as far as 2015 version did. one thing trump wanted were 5 year mandatory minimum sentences for people convicted of illegalry reentering the country, that is something that president could still work ongoing forward. i spoke with a guy at heritage, he said he hopes that republicans look for policy change like that right now this might not be as huge of a game changer as some are thinking. charles: we'll celebrate tonight, if you are right, then shame on the democrats in senate. thank you very much. >> one heck of a day in the stock market, major averages ended in the red, they were ended in the red, they were all over the place, there were glimmers of hope, next. my dad says our insurance doesn't have that. don't worry - i know what a lug wrench is, dad. is this a lug wrench? maybe? you can leave worry behind when liberty st
