tonight that newly democratic-led house of representatives is going to begin voting on a pair of short-term bills to end the partial government shutdown. a clear signal if he needed one to president trump that divided government has arrived in washington. it is the first major order of business for nancy pelosi who today reclaimed the speaker's gavel 12 years after she became the first woman ever to wield it. >> the honorable nancy pelosi of the state of california having received a majority of the votes cast is duly elected speaker of the house of representatives for the 116th congress. >> pelosi also becomes the first former speaker to return as speaker in 64 years. sam rayburn's comeback back in 1955 was the last time we saw this. pelosi welcomed the new 36 seat democratic majority saying the american people had spoken. >> we have no illusions that our work will be easy and that all of us in this chamber will always agree, but let each of us pledge that when we disagree, we respect each other and we respect it. we will debate in advance good ideas no matter where they come from and in th

least in terms of the law, out of mueller's hands and in the hands of what is now a democratically led house of representativesl, it's -- i think there's two different actors. the house of representatives and the acting attorney general. right now, matthew whitaker. because the department of justice special counsel regulations say it will at least be up to whitaker in the first instance to decide whether or not a president could be indicted. and whitaker has given us really no basis for confidence in his judgment. i mean, as we saw yesterday, imagine, anderson, if i started your show today with this, mr. cooper, i'll start by highlighting the fact that you stayed in new york overthe holidays, gave up christmas and new year's with your family. you demonstrated your dedication to delivering. if i said all that, your readers would be aghast and think i'm a suck-up artist. that is what the acting attorney general said yesterday in a televised meeting to the president. this is not someone who should be in charge of our law enforcement apparatus at all, and not someone who is deciding this ultimate question of wheth

throughout the year until election day when gps prognosticators saw a 61% chance of a democratic-led house of representativestions were that accurate. after school shootings in florida, you were asked of the likelihood of bump stocks by the beginning of the year. people became skeptical that the trump administration could make a bump stock ban by year-end. they gave it a 7% chance. by the end of the year, they announced the ban. would mueller cease to be special counsel, whether by ending the investigation or by being removed from the position? odds never went above 50%. but what happened right before these spikes, giuliani announced that trump reimbursed michael cohen for payments to stormy daniels. and here the justice department inspector general released a lengthy report critical of the fbi's investigation into hillary clinton's e-mails. and this one, attorney general jeff sessions resigned. it felt like a volatile year, but the forecasters provide a relatively stable view of some geopolitical hot spots. while the war in syria raged on, forecasters were confident that assad would remain president, giving

so now we can say that as the first two official acts of business in the new democratic-led house of representativeshouse has passed two bills to reopen the federal government without funding for a wall on the southern border. your move, republican senate. that does it for us word" with lawrence o'donnell. good evening, lawrence. >> good evening, rachel. and the fascinating detail within those votes that i'm looking at now is that seven republicans in the house of representatives voted for the package of funding bills that nancy pelosi put together that had nothing to do with the border wall. and five republicans voted for the other bill that would temporarily extend funding for the department of homeland security without a border wall. so there's five republicans in the house of representatives tonight who were perfectly happy to not only go without the wall but vote in effect against the wall very specifically tonight. >> yes, and as hakeem jeffries just said live on-air just moments ago, as these bills now head to the senate what the house has sent to the senate are two bills that the senate has

today the house of representatives passed a democratic-led measure to reopen the government through february 8th. the white house, though, says president trump will veto it if it reaches his desk because it does n border speaker nancy pelosi suggested the president's state of the union address be rescheduled because of the shutdown. in the letter she urged president trump to either send his speech in writing or deliver it when the government reopens. she cites security concerns, noting that due to the shutdown the department of homeland security and secret service have been hamstrung by the furloughs. the state of the union is scheduled for january 29th. >>> well, back here at home the san jose city council is trying to help bay area families impacted by the shutdown. the city council voted unanimously today to move forward with the plan to pay local tsa agents working during the shutdown. the plan is to offer no-interest loans to each tsa worker at san jo international. the loans, up to $5,000 each, would be repaid by the workers after they receive their government paychecks. many of them w

cohen, we know, has agreed to testify in the house of representatives in the ongoing investigation on the house of representatives part, now led by the democratsy before going to prison. catherine, is this unexpected? >> the democrats once they took control made it clear they were reopening the russia investigation, they made the charge that the republicans closed the investigation without thoroughly looking agent issues related to then-candidate trumps finances. i would say it is not unexpected of the question i have at this point, maybe you have a little more information than i do sitting here, is whether this would be open or closed testimony. in recent weeks -- >> shepard: it will be open testimony. we've just heard. it will be live with cameras testifying before the house oversight committee. >> well, that's a very important development, significant development. it will be in open setting. the republicans in the last session chose to have their with its do these under oath transcribed interviews, they said they were more effective. democrats argued it should have been in public and the argument of the former fbi director, james comey. one

democrats led by new house speaker, nancy pelosi, officially now the majority in the house of representatives. 116th congress, the most diverse ever with more than 100 women. pelosi's leadership being tied for second time as speaker immediately tested by the partial government shut down and a president staring her down in a high stakes showdown over the border wall. our hallie jackson has the latest. >> congratulations, madam speaker. >> today belongs to her. >> i now call the house to order on behalf of all of america's children. >> but nancy pelosi's second speakership may be shaped by him, a president confronting a new political universe. >> congratulations each and every one of you. >> as a triumphant pelosi and her party take over the house. >> let us pledge when we disagree, we respect each other and we respect the truth. >> sworn in a shut down standoff, the promising pgress on controlling the senate, congress has to compromise. democrats plan more investigations on the approximate the's tax returns, potential conflicts of interest and dealings with russia with pelosi not ruling out im

of congress that has some power now. there is a democratic majority in the house of representatives, and it happens to be led by probablyiest legislator that america has seen for the past few decades. nancy pelosi is a master of the inside game. we saw her put on a great display when she was tamping down the rumors of dissent in her own caucus in order to retain the speakership. this is her skill set. this is what she's good at and she has borne this out. the question is has she ever gained an adversary so predictable as donald trump? >> just moments ago, you can see one of her weapons or strategies is trying to get under his skin a little bit. they are talking about this prospect that the president may declare a national emergency. this is a wall of the failures of his administrations, problems that happened with mueller, a cabinet in disarray and disgrace. that's the wall he's trying to build. this is a diversion and he's a master after diversion. she's poking a bear. >> she is, she is, and the democrats really believe they have the upper hand in this fight. it's very interesting, when you talk to both sides, the repu

the conflict the group of democrats and republicans led by senator bernie sanders plans to resubmit a draft resolution the senate passed and december but the house of representatives rejected sanders has issued a warning over america's continued role in the war bring in our gas in a moment first here's more of what the senator from vermont say late last year i had the opportunity to meet was several very brave human rights activists from yemen. urging congress to put a stop to this war and they told me very clearly when yemenis see made in us a on the bombs that are killing them it tells them that the united states of america is responsible for this war this is not a message the united states should be sending to the world the united states should not be supporting a catastrophic war led by a despotic saudi regime with a dangerous and irresponsible military policy so let's take a closer look at the u.s. involvement in yemen washington began supporting this saudi u.a.e. coalition back in two thousand and fifteen and until recently much of that assistance was in the form of and flight refueling for saudi jets which ended in november by mutual agreement but the u.s.

demanding over five billion dollars from the democratic controlled house of representatives to keep his promise the democrats have refused to give in which is led to a partial government shutdown that began on december the twenty second it's affecting their eight hundred thousand government employees the president has threatened to prolong the shutdown for months or even years there's even talk of declaring a national emergency and bypassing congress altogether well bring in our guests in a moment but first time is to brook reports from washington. vice president mike pence jared cushion or the president's son in law and close advisor and kiersten nielsen who is the secretary of homeland security met for about two hours on saturday afternoon with congressional aides talking about this government shutdown the vice president said that these talks on saturday were productive however president trump tweeted that the two sides really didn't make much headway now the vice president is going to be continuing these talks meanwhile house speaker nancy pelosi announced that house democrats are going to be meeting next week to pass individual appropriatio

let's look at the house of representatives because it is led by the democrats. >> nancy pelosi has saidee to spend money on a wall, so this is a nonstarter. and chuck schumer, leader of the democrats in the senate, met with mitch mcconnell, the majority leader. it seemed to be having some talks after rival plans failed to advance in the senate. his spokesman tells us later that they will not agree, there something to allowing on a down payment basis that would find that wall. the democrats are just not going to go there. the democrats in the plans that went through or that did not get through the senate, they got two more votes for theirs on the republican side. point, there is not a deal that can get through. certainly not at this point. but we will see whether the president makes good on his last resort threat to declare that national emergency, and what happens. we will soon enter the 35th day of the government shutdown. jodie snyder, thank you so much. trouble if the trade war persists. we will hear from the chairman -- at onepany company. we will see what he is making of it all. th

led to a partial shutdown of us government services, now entering its 13th day. it could be just the start of many policy battles this year as democrats take majority control of the house of representativess insisting on more than $5 billion to build a wall along the border with mexico, which democrats refuse to support. he has also promised more tax cuts, this time aimed at helping the middle classes. that would also be controversial. previous cuts boosted the stock market, but were criticised for helping big business and the wealthy, as well as damaging the government's finances. mr trump has moved to cut regulations governing wall street, introduced in the wake of the 2008 financial crash. he has also promised deregulation for more industries including energy, certain to be another battleground with democrats. both sides want drug companies to cut the cost of medicines, but they have rival plans to tackle the issue. and they're also likely to clash over plans to shake up the us postal service. mr trump's task force says it should act "more like a business." here's what the two sides had to say over the latest battle, the government shutdown. the president and vice—president stayed her

democratic politicians are trying once again to stop the trumpet ministration from supporting the saudi led coalition fighting in yemen they've resubmitted a draft resolution that was passed by the senate in december but blocked in the house of representatives one of those supporting the measure is former presidential hopeful bernie sanders. late last year i had the opportunity to meet with several very brave human rights activists from yemen urging congress to put a stop to this war and they told me very clearly when yemenis see made in usa on the bombs that are killing them it tells them that the united states of america is responsible for this war this is not a message the united states should be sending to the world the united states should not be supporting a catastrophic war led by a despotic saudi regime with a dangerous and irresponsible military policy of dion estabrook has more on this from washington. well this resolution has a much better chance of passing than it would have a couple of months ago when a similar resolution was introduced in the senate back in december a bipartisan group of senators led by bernie sanders introduced a resolution to end u.s. involvement in yemen it passed but it didn't even make it to the house of

led to his swift condemnation by his fellow republicans in the house of representatives. at practically the same time president trump again launched another attack against democratic senatorren for claiming at least a small portion of native american heritage. he was reacting to an instagram video warren had posted linked to her president aspirations. he wrote on twitter, "if elizabeth warren often referred to by me as pocahontas did this commercial from big horn or wounded knee instead of her kitsch nguyen her husband dressed in full indian garb it would have been a smash." two republican senators from south dakota objected. there was pretty much radio silence from every other republican. with me now is jeff toobin gloria borger, david urban, paul begala. also we welcome cnn political commentator tara setmayer. tara-s there a difference between things the president has said in the past and what steve king has said and the reaction to it? >> well, no to the former. and yes to the latter. they are very similar in things they have said. and the president's history is -- of saying racially insensitive and flat out racist things. paul ryan even said that during the campaign w
