house democrats also approved da rules package for the new congress that, among other things, imposes a rule known as "paygo," which requires that congress offset any new spending with either tax increases or budget cuts. only three democrats -- ro khanna of california, tulsi gabbard of hawaii, and alexandria ocasio-cortez of new york -- voted "no." critics say paygo is a conservative austerity measure that could hamper efforts to pass progressive legislation. the house also voted to create a new select committee on climate change, to ban discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, and to allow lawmakers to wear religious headwear on the house floor. that change will impact ilhan omar, a somali-american democrat from minnesota who wears a hijab. meanwhile, washington state democratic congressmember pramila jayapal said thursday she's been given the green light by democratic leaders to hold hearings on whether to create a federal medicare for all single-payer healthcare system by lowering the age of medicare eligibility to zero. both the house rules and budget committees are expect

to watch those kinds of democrats now in congress twist in the wind as candidates go out and talk aboutgressive tax rate, medicare for all agreeing with the president maybe we should withdraw our forces from syria is going to be really difficult for a lot of these people to make a mark here and somehow deal with maybe 15, 20 people running for president and their party. it's going to make things quite uncomfortable. >> brennan: mark, one of the things to pick up on promises made, promises kept, something the president prides himself on doing it has been a challenge for some of his aids who say sometimes, you need to change with the information flow. when circumstances change. you can't just keep to the promise because it was part of the original brand. afghanistan, when the president had that cabinet meeting inof tr this week he made some unusual comments, "wall street journal" came down hard on him. >> the president said in essence that the soviet union has been right to invade afghanistan. he offered a series of reasons for that that were not factually based he said it was anti anti-t

democrats. what is critical is that for the first two years of his presidency, donald trump had a compliant republican—controlled congress. ass an accountability and oversight which he is not used to. he says he wants to get this wall through, that until the congress approves it... the funding of five billion between the wall on the mexican border, he will not re—open the government. the democrats have no reason to give in. they ran against him and did well and part of this was none of this bluster about the wall. there is a stand off and it is not clear how it will be resolved. the republicans in support of president. to a man and woman? no. we are seeing fractures. this is in its second two weeks. shut downs to be clear are somewhat common. it is a brinksmanship game that goes on. normally it is resolved. this is the third in the last year. the longest shut down was three weeks, with no sign of resolution, this could break the record and it is causing hardship. a quarter of the workforce, 800,000 people are not being paid or working without pay. this includes ironically, he says the wallis about security, among the agencie

there's a showdown already well underway as congress begins its new term even the republic top democrats say the latest talks with the president reduced no hint that he will sign their bill to end a partial shutdown of government services everybody in the room neither side seems pretty to budge him because he says he won't sign it and use the government as hostage we should just give in the american people don't want that that's bad for our country and that's not the way to govern and you little god because tax president trump initiated the government shutdown nearly two weeks ago. he refused to approve a budget deal because it did not include billions in funding for building a wall at the border with mexico. democrats solidly oppose his plans for the barrier and the nearly six billion dollars he wants for it an open wound. this is the result of their dispute and end to government services such as some trash collection. no access to museums and other federally operated sites. and no pay for hundreds of thousands of federal workers. thank you now the question is how long could the shutdow
