goes back to the early '60's, around 1960, when it was started by actually retired batallion chief chuck lee from the fire department and others, and they had a basic program. there was a time in the early '90's, due to internal issues at city college, that the fire science program was almost furloughed, but two key people, retired captain bill long, and jim skinner, who was retired as a fire chief of the road city fire department, collaborated with the fire department and developed classes that all students have to take. they were able to build electives, and through that, we were able to formalize the two-year degree and certificate. we were able to work with the chief's office and the chief to get a work experience component, and then, finally, we were able to get our own fire academy program. so that has been a long road map that's occurred really, say, since 1960. >> commissioner nakajo: i appreciate that history because i remember that it wasn't organized in terms of a two-year credential, it was more or less, as i remember it, elected courses. i sincerely believe that credentials are

and just six days ago that the prime minister's overall brexit deal was thumping lee chucked out by mpsoff and make a few twea ks to her, "go off and make a few tweaks and come back with something slightly different", but in the big picture, what the prime minister is suggesting is a few different brushstrokes, far from suggesting is a few different brushstrokes, farfrom redrawing the whole frame. that is part of the problem. many of her critics, those who want different things from brexit, are frustrated that she may be talking about compromised but there is absolutely no sign of her budging in a very big way. meanwhile, there are serious moves by serious people in parliament, not just to try to get their way, but to formally try to take control of this whole serious saga. there was one surprise today — the decision announced by theresa may scrap the £65 fee that eu citizens were going to have to pay to sssofs this fight. to stay ' ' here in the uk after brexit. the official roll out began this morning. is; x7;— 2—7; 2: assists—so... sow..." . ,.. gé t'fiig was 3 t'fii3 was not expected.

chuck rosenberg. frank figliuzzi is a former assistant director for counterintelligence at the fbi. with us at the table, nbc news national political reporter, carol lee. and donny deutsch joins us for the hour. let me start with you, chuck rosenberg. as roger stone was in court today, you have to fight the temptation to feel any sort of numbness around the event of another person who's been in donald trump's political arsenal for decades appearing before court to face his, you know, whatever his legal fate will be. >> it's becoming remarkably reteer routine, isn't it? you'd think for any other president in any other time, it would be extraordinary. i think you're exactly right. i also think listening to john brennan during your introduction that there's more to come. there are other shoes to drop. not to be too cliched. i think there's lots of clues out there, nicolle, that mueller isn't quite done yet. >> well, you never say anything willy-nilly. what are those clues, chuck? >> i think there's a bunch. i mean, we know that the grand jury that mueller was using was extended for another six months. that's clue number one. we know, or at least i think

chuck rosenfort. let me begin with the idea that stone, carol lee, would never taerld e turn against the -- never turn> i think your first point is the key point. not only the rupt is deeper, but she a different animal. he is a different type of person. he is a show boat. his whole persona is around being defiant and in your faus. >> i was just going to say i'm hoping the team will put up the nixon thing. that was quintessential roger stone. >> he has a sttattoo of nixon o the back of his neck, the idea, and i'm sure you heard millions of times people say i will never flip, i will never flip, but he is just a little different in that sense. the other thing that he said when he came out was that it is better to be talked about than not talked about. and the way he would be talked about is just not the kind of thing that brought -- it just goes completely against his whole mo. >> the president tweeted this morning greatest witch hunt in the history of our country. by the way, who alerted cnn to be there? chuck rosenberg you have been very upset by the way some are portraying what the fbi did, and why is

chuck, tell them to fund the wall. >> everybody was weeping when president's policies were separating children from their families at the border, now have you family permanent leen killers. >> here he is at the dentist. >> i'm here at the dentist, we're going to continue our series on people of the border, i am here with diana, she will tell us about growing up. >> a stunt. i can't take it seriously. >> if he is doing that, because if he is running for president, we're not that into him, we're not voting for him, you would think he would use his platform for the border security. he is i don't know, beto is sick. >> okay. we have the rock. who tore with snowflakes hear what he said, he said something like, the people's champion he applauded everyone can be who they want to be, this generation are looking for a reason to be offended, wow. can you smell what the rock is cooking? >> absolutely. >> right. >> you know, you have a lot of these millennials they want to be disruptive, and disrespectful. >> that is right. >> they feel their opinion is only opinion. if you say something other than what they want you to say, you are criticized and stigmatized it has to sto

this comes as mitc much mcconnel and chuck schumer propose dueling senate votes to reopen the government. lee dagen mcdowell. lee, your take on this, now that we know that these bills are going forward and perhaps the government reopening is near. >> i'm not sure that the reopening is near because we've got two different strategies a and we're not sure what's going to happen. there's really no incentive right now for the politicians to compromise. when you look at what americans are looking for, 53% are looking for people to stick to their promises rather than compromise. we've got two different bills out there. they're proposing two different things. i don't see any movement for them to come to the middle and say that it's worth compromising. on top of that, you've got republicans, 82% support the wall, 93% of democrats oppose the wall. so what are you supposed to do? leaders are supposed to lead, they're supposed to persuade folks to their position. we don't see that happening now, people are digging in, it's getting more and more tribal. i'm not sure that i see any of the leadership coming

lee. welcome to sunday. it's "meet the press." >> announcer: from nbc news in washington, the longest running show in television history, this is "meet the press" with chuck todd. >>> good sunday morning. we have two stories that are driving this day. the first, that explosive story posted by "the new york times" on friday night that in 2017 the fbi opened an investigation into whether president trump was working as a russian asset as the sitting president against interests of the united states. the investigation was opened after mr. trump fired fbi director james comey because he mentioned the russia investigation in his dismissal letter to comey and because the president told my colleague, lester holt, that he fired comey in part because of the russia investigation. now, it's important to note that "the times" says no evidence has emerged publicly that mr. trump was in fact working for the russians when he fired mr. comey. >>> the second big story is this government shutdown now in it's 23rd day and now officially the longest ever. what we're seeing is not so much the consequences of divided government, which voters say they like because each party acts
