danielle collins has had a fairytale run so danielle collins has had a fairytale run so far in this tournamentng out three seeded players including angelique kerber, but standing in her way was petra kvitova, who was certainly eyeing a third grand slam after the biggest names in the women's draw fell before the semifinals. however, as the action was hotting up on court, play was delayed at four games or to close the roof on the rod laver arena as the temperature approached 100 fahrenheit. the cooler conditions seemed to favour petra kvitova. and after winning a tight first set that included one service break each, the cheque was flying and made it look easy against the american, as she sealed her place in her first american, as she sealed her place in herfirst grand american, as she sealed her place in her first grand slam final since winning the title of wimbledon in 2014 -- winning the title of wimbledon in 2014 —— czech. winning the title of wimbledon in 2014 -- czech. itjust tastes very great so i am really happy to be there again. to be honest i think not many people believed that i can d

susan collins joins me now.me back to "meet the press." >> thank you, chuck. >> look, you were very patient. you heard from mick mulvaney and from steny hoyer. did you hear any hope? >> i'm always hopeful. i never thought that shutdown are an appropriate means of trying to achieve any kind of a solution. this doesn't matter to one side or the other cave in. and it's important that we remember that real lives are being affected here. the 800,000 federal employees, dedicated public servants, who won't get a paycheck next friday this isn't resolved very soon. >> is steel for concrete a reasonable compromise offer from the white house? in your mind. >> well, i have always thought that the debate over what the physical barrier should be constructed of was rather bizarre. we do need to strengthen our border security. we know that 90% of the heroin is coming across the southern border. and a lot of unaccompanied children. that is not good either. but we need to look at more than just a physical barrier. we need to look

there were two big votes today and we had one of the people that voted on both of them, susan collins, one of six republicans to cross the aisle in the senate and michael cohen may appear on capitol hill after all. the committee he lied to has subpoenaed him. will he tell members the truth this time? the word is that's all he wants to do. what do you say? let's get after it. i wish i had better news. two big votes today. both of them went down. part of the news is we saw more republicans voting against the presidents position. they voted yes on the second bill but not enough to get to the number they need to override. they didn't get it done. then we heard that mitch mcconnell outwardly saying the shutdown has to end. inwardly saying let's make a deal. he and chuck schumer were huddled together today after the two bills failed in the senate. so it gave some hope. this is what the business is supposed to be. not a shutdown. however, according to the senate majority leader, there has been no substantial progress. one thing they were mulling over was this option. a temporary resolution.

we wish him well. 2020, i think susan collins is either going to resign or she is going to have to do a lot more than what she is doing for the state of maine and the voters if she wants to be reelected. host: does this go back to brett kavanaugh, caller? caller: i think brett kavanaugh has a lot to do with it, but i think she has voted in lockstep on a lot of issues recently that she should have a begun what -- maybe done what lisa murkowski did. pedro: caller, thank you. katherine: maine is a very interesting stay for me. i am from new england, but i -- state for me. i am from new england, but i would think the previous governor of maine, for example, paul lepage, he supported trump with intent political maneuvering on the right. i also think the ranked-choice voting situation in maine is very interesting. pedro: please explain that a little. katherine: excuse me, yes. voters are given a slate of and instead of one, they get to rank them in the order of which they would like to see them heading to the role, in this case the house. and that is not a new idea, it is a very old idea, b

let me say and then i'll yield to katherine clark and collin -- but we're going to move forward with our for the people agenda focused on kitchen table, pocketbook issues. that's in the legislative bucket. we're going to move forward with our oversight responsibilities as a separate and co-equal branch of government. we're not a wholly owned subs dare of the trump administration. what american people voted for was a checks and balance. we're going to move forward with oversight that's fair, that's reasonable, that's anchored in trying to determine whether the trump administration is engaging in waste, fraud and abuse of taxpayer dollars. as well as other issues around our democracy. we can do both and should do both. >> to given a example, we heard in the midterms that the american people want congress to function again and they want to take the focus off of special interests and put it back on the challenges that they're facing. and just yesterday, we were able after years of inaction to put forward a comprehensive useful background check bill for gun ownership. that's exactly what

commissioner collins? >> one thing that i'm curious about, why we're approving two calendars in one swoop? i like the idea we'd be able to be flexible and if there is any shifts we'd be able to have that conversation on our first board meeting, making a decision about two years in advance. and my other question i'm having as well, is i know as a former teacher, work days are really important. and i think just from my personal experience and what i hear from former colleagues of mine, is it would be preferred to have two work days and two professional development days. i would want that for all educators, including teachers and para professionals. i know that teachers are doing more than that in setting up their classrooms and this would be a way of reflecting that. >> response? >> the calendars that we adopted are similar to the calendar that we have this year. there is only a few shifts due to the actual just changing of days in a year. so the committee looked at those -- the entire calendar. this is some

susan collins is up for re-election. it's difficult for her to go home and explain to her constituents in maine why the government is shut down. it's hard for me to try to explain to you why the government is shut down other than we're seeing political gamesmanship on both sides. cory gardner knows about winning and losing elections. he saw the elections for the national republican senatorial committee. seeing those cracks is significant because the question is who will follow their lead. will we see mitt romney follow their lead, lisa murkowski follow their lead? that's when it becomes a big issue for president trump. right now, there's only two, so that's why we're seeing the likes of mitch mcconnell take a step back and say basically, i don't have a role in these negotiations. nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, and president trump need to figure it out. >> is there any sign the president is starting to reconsider his stance? >> you know, a great question. i think we saw the first signs of it last night when we heard sean ha

she beat amaerican danielle collins in straight sets. injured in a knife attack in 2016. to be honest, i'm still not really believing that i'm in the final. it's kind of weird, to be honest, as well, that i didn't know even if i would play tennis again. it wasn't really a nice time to be dealing with everything. it wasn't only like physically but mentally it was very tough as well. it took me really a while to believe to the people around me again. kvitova will meet us open champion naomi osaka next. the japanese player battled to a hard—fought win over czech seventh seed karolina pliskova in three sets. the winner of the final will also become the world number one. osako admits she is struggling to get her head around her recent achievements. it's a little bit unreal but at the same time! it's a little bit unreal but at the same time i realise the work that i put in during the off—season and every match that i played, i tried my best. it just every match that i played, i tried my best. itjust felt like it was a continuous effort. i can'

susan collins, the likely target, the moderate from maine, gave some indication she's willing to look at the democrats' position. >> we could reopen much of government where there's no dispute. let's get those reopened while the negotiations continue. it is not a sign of weakness to try to figure out a middle ground. >> reporter: okay. add cory gardner to that, a republican senator from colorado, he faces a tough re-election battle in a blue state come 2020. remember the map last time in in 2018 when there were so many democrats facing re-election battles that switched on its head in 2020. democrats in the house and nancy pelosi, all across the capitol, are looking at those republicans, putting the political pressure on and hoping that that's the pressure point that ultimately breaks this impasse. alex? >> always looking ahead for us, mike viqueira, thank you so much. >>> joining me now, peter baker, chief white house correspondent at "the new york times" and msnbc political analyst, also jeff mason, jeff to you in just a second, peter, i want to look at this latest article that you w

want to let them into their private spaces you know i'm glad you mentioned that and i want to ask collin to follow up on that what fundamental misunderstandings does the mainstream media perpetuate reporting on transgender issues i got about forty five seconds. you know i think the main issue is that they equivocate between the internal sense of identity and biological sex and also though they'll talk about how they think that hormones are maybe the only thing that are giving men the competitive advantage over women in sports which completely negates the fact that what we should be looking at is the effect that testosterone or other hormones have on the development of an individual from adolescence into an adult and these things aren't reversed when you simply start taking cross six hormones and jan down to thirty seconds but we've talked about the mainstream media social media many think has course and our society is that a plus or a minus in telling the transgender story. well i mean social media is you know. it's certainly playing a big factor in what's going on because so many people
