the american people have spoken, may be chuck schumer doesn't understand that. >> lou: i don't know ifing somebody a lot smarter than him leading the opposition. that is the case now. to imagine chuck schumer suggesting that donald trump, he could get along if it were not for the doggone republican party. how infantile and how lazy minded previously at various points become? it's really stunning. >> you have to remember chuck schumer has been the poster child for obamacare, it has been a colossal failure. premiums over 116% this year, you can't use it unless you are hit by a bus anymore. right? the system has failed. the goal has been to pass obamacare. that's all they have, and the problem is chuck schumer has walked into a situation following harry reid and trying to step forward and appease the progressive wing of the democratic party of which the american people have fundamentally rejected. >> lou: how can they even called themselves progressives there? it has no foreign policy to even claim in the course of the past eight years a failed presidency, and frankly, this legislation, o

schumer: i have no idea about that. reporter: senator in terms of , blocking or reversing the executive order, what are the options for that besides the federal court? sen. schumer: legislation. again, i heard senator mccain speak out pretty strongly on tv. another senator has already opposed it. if we get a few more republicans , i think we might be able to , pass legislation to overturn it. it will be up to getting more republicans. reporter: senator, the department of homeland security said they will keep going -- [indiscernible] have you seen the signs that the federal judge ordered that they will follow? sen. schumer: as i said, i called when i heard from some of the lawyers who cannot really talk to the people at kennedy airport, who just came, that there might be six of them on an airplane going back, so i immediately called the secretary of homeland security, kelly, and i said this would violate the court order by the judge in brooklyn, and he said, that is not so. we are all the people who came here, and are sub

k, then next we will have -- mr. schumer: senator chris urphy. enator hirono. ms.osi: representative nadler. we got one here. >> thank you very much. mr. nadler: i'm congressman jerly nadler, i represent the 10th congressional district of new york, the home of the statue of liberty and the home of ellis island, those symbols of america's proud tradition of welcoming people to our shores are a little beaten an battered today because of the little man in the white house, donald trump. when the president signed his dangerously stupid executive order friday afternoon, i knew that it was unconstitutional, discriminatory and morally reprehensible. what i did in the know is that people all over this country would join together so quickly to fight this outrageous policy and to help those in need. that gives me great hope that our country can overcome this dark time. we must overcome this dark time. we must overcome this little man in the white house who is disgracing our history and disgracing our traditions. we must continue to welcome people from all over the world, rega

get the background information that democrats want to prove nominees don't have conflicts of interest. but heard chuck schumer, regretful there and pretty blunt in the main tool, vote, that's most important, they don't have it. and that's because they themselves, democrats in the majority had a democrat in the white house changed rules to help themselves. now as i said earlier, shoe meet other foot. >> that should be a lesson. especially when you're talking about -- i would think talking about hacking into systems, whether it's for election or not, when you're the party in favor, and you have the majority, you may think differently but should always think about these things as if the shoe were on the other foot. >> and that argument was made at the time. i remember not just republicans saying you guys are going to live to regret this but democrats, internal debate you heard chuck schumer discussing there. internal debate whether or not thinking long-term. no party will be in the majority forever. and soo now they have to -- they made the bed, have to lie in it. >> and talk about when they had more power, demo

have you here. listening to chuck schumer somebody started talking about abandoning the republican party. he is presumptuous and arrogant and he certainly didn't have this tongue in his cheek. what do you make of senator schumer? >> this as you know is the most dangerous place between anyone in washington between chuck schumer and the camera. all of a sudden chuck schumer saying well us democrats are going to hold the president accountable if it's just in the interest of holding people accountable. excuse me this is a mandate when donald trump was elected a mandate says the largest congressional election as it's related to majorities and electoral college votes since the reagan re-election campaign in 1984 the the american people have spoken. maybe chuck schumer doesn't understand that. >> i don't know whether he understands it or not but he is somebody a lot smarter than him leading the opposition and that is the case now. to imagine chuck schumer suggesting that donald trump, he could get along if it weren't for that dog on republican party. how infantile and how lazy minded and previous

then they have schumer with his head down, horrible reading skills. no charisma, no content, no ability to communicate. this is going very poorly for them. advantage team trump. >> upchuck, am i right? >> you're right. the communication styles are so radically different. for 16 months, 18 months, people were -- even if they didn't want to vote for him they were entertained by donald trump who doesn't have to speak from a teleprompter. i think more democrats focus on him using twitter and urge them to stop it, he's going to keep doing it because it's his most effective tool. why would you do away with their most effective tool? i think if the democrats want to beat him, they have to beat him with ideas or ignore his tweets and figure out a way to work around it. >> it's a third rail that they can't get to because when he tweets, the press follows. i think it's a parallel to whenever president obama did something, the media reacted and we would sit there and go, why is the media always paying attention to president obama? this is fair game. the pendulum

have conflicts of interest. but you just heard chuck schumer, very regretful there and pretty blunt in the fact that the main toolwhich is the vote, which is really what's most important when it comes to the united states congress, they don't have it. and that's because they themselves, democrats in the majority, when they had a democrat in the white house, they changed the rules to help themselves. and now as i said earlier, shoe, meet other foot. [ laughter ] >> david, that should be a lesson, especially when you're talking about, i would think, when you're talking about hacking into systems, whether it's for the election or not. when you're the party in favor and you have the majority, you may think differently, but you should always think about these things as if the shoe were on the other foot, david. >> and that argument was made at the time. i remember not just republicans saying you guys are going to live to regret this but some democrats, there was internal debate. you heard chuck schumer discussing it there. there was internal debate about whether they were thinking long-term because no party is going t

betsy, great to have you here. schumer is acting as if the obamacare support entirely by democratic. thn is peddling pure bull. >> demagoguery it's a shame at this time when the nation needs to fix obamacare. it isn't working. the republicans do have plans. lou: it's beyond not work. -- not work it's collapsing, and premiums are sky rocketing. it's skyrocketing. >> premiums are double what they were before the obamacare plans were launched. lou: this not a person watching in my best guess who thinks there is anything about obamacare that is worth saving. save if you will, preconditions. >> there is a better way to protect us. lou: nothing about this is working. i heard republicans, some of them, say we should be saving some of the mandates. >> absolutely not. government has proven it does not know how to regulate the insurance market. it has pushed up costs and made it totally dysfunctional. what disturbs me when i see schumer and others claiming -- 20 million people will lose coverage, and now they upped the ante to 30 mi

havees schumer and others said they are open to the concept. if you look at the early signals from the incoming administration, they want to have some type of largely private-sector initiative around tax credits for creation of private sector jobs. i think there would be pushed back. returnsul ryan as he following the election returns back in november's from reporters about what to expect when the new congress convenes on tuesday. house speaker ryan: welcome to of a new- dawn republican party. a government focused on turning president-elect trump's victory into real progress for the american people. our team is excited and we cannot wait to get to work. we recognize that task ahead of us is enormous. if we put our country back on the right track, we have to be bold and goal bit. this country is expecting no less. in the days and weeks ahead, we will work closely with the president-elect and his transition team to put out our ambitious plan. --t seems led by mike pence that team is led by mike pence and we are working hand in glove from the start

i have written obama. schumer. gilly brand. -- gillibrand. my congressman gave meet rush out of the office. i have written everybody and their mother. including the afl-cio which i was a union member. and the american civil liberties union. i have written all kinds of lawyers. attorney tten the generals of new york and pennsylvania. i should be included in this lawsuit which is forgiving student loans that were taken out on art institute of pittsburgh. they are bankrupt. host: thanks for sharing your story. give melissa chance to comment. guest: i would be happy to. thank you for those points, jeffrey. i can't speak to the specifics of the situation, i think there's some important issues that you have raised. one is the concern about fraud and how that relates to student loan payments and the borrowers who have been defrauded by schools. there have been some provisions put in place for some of those borrowers to get relief from their student loans. and there are new regulations issued this past fall along those lines as well. in addition, one

>> guest: i'm looking to see whether these two have this good sense of a relationship. schumer has been to mar-a-lago, well for a fund-raiser, dscc, when he was chairman. raised i think $250,000 at trump's venue. he is very stern in saying i don't have a good relationship with him. some of his rental places were in my district. i knew him a little bit when i was in the house. again, i'm going to come back to that supreme court pick. that will also tell us a lot about what trump is going to try and do to schumer and whether he tries to marginalize him. >> guest: well, here's the thing about chuck schumer. he is the only person in washington donald trump actually knows. he laid eyes on paul ryan, half dozen times and five of those in the last nine months? he has no relationship with mitch mcconnell and has no cultural connection to him whatsoever. he knows chuck schumer for many years. he donated to the campaign. they're from the same city. ran somewhat in the same circles that they were both powerful new yorkers. so they know each other. they have something to work with. that do

the same way, if hillary clinton had been elected she would have rigged cabinet to the left. schumer has been clear he can't imagine trump picking a judge he would -- justice for supreme court, he would vote for. i say fine. un-- let's define who the hard left is. the country wants to see that position filled. in this morning 57% of democrats want do see trump succeed. i think that democrats are going against headwinds of po popular opinion. maria: moving to russia, donald trump put out a series of tweets on heels of intelligence report, here is one of them, having a good relationship with russia is a good thing. not a bad thing. only stupid people or fools would think it is bad. we have enough problem in the world without yet another one. when i am president, russia will respect us, far more than they do now. and both country will perhaps work together. to solve the many great and pressing problems and issues of the world. k what can russia ask u.s. do together? how important is a relationship with russia? a positive one as it relates to the economy, to military? >> well, look the r

let's get a quick word from mike mckee about congress and about a gentleman you have seen prominently today, chuck schumero has played a major role in slowing down the confirmation process of a number of trump nominees to the cabinet. also, mike would need to be a big partner if trump will have -- of trump if he will have bipartisan achievements. >> you will need chuck schumer. this republicans are divided, point, perhaps more than the democratic caucus between the tea party types that don't want to spend more money and the republicans who want to go along with donald trump's tax cuts, etc. he will need democratic votes on a lot of different issues. chuck schumer is in a good position to decide who gets the votes and when. he said he is going to take the issues one by one. donald trump's proposals one by one and see what he thinks of each one. he has already made a decision on cabinet officials. he is delaying the vote on everyone except general mattis and general kelly today to be members of the cabinet until at least next week. he is already slowing down the trump train as it were. >> we are looking at

prident-elect, paraphrasing, getting along better than chuck schumer. >> it was reported having read charming chuck schumer while he was on the phone. trump and ryan are different sort of republicans. they seemed to patch up things a little bit are with donald trump came out after the election and was mad at ryan and you name it get behind some trump supporter in the house, that is what we would be talking about, and he never did. he could have made things difficult for paul ryan. neil: seems pragmatic all said and done. alan pappas, "washington examiner" editor, breaking news. thanks, my friend. >> thanks, neil. neil: speaking of paul ryan he is expected to speak very, very shortly. you heard mitch mcconnell saying that and doing that in the senate side. it will be paul ryan's chance on the house side. more after this. neil: all right. it is official. paul ryan is going to be serving at least another two years as speaker of the house. he got just enough votes. this is hardly a dramatic development. it was sort of telegraphed a few weeks ago when he fought off a, what was a small bru

they put nancy pelosi back in and you have charles schumer. so basically you have people from new york and california that are trying to, again, represent the very progressive socialist left, and they're not going to change their ways. the democrat party needs to do a self assessment of what happened to them over the past eight years and in november 2016. but instead, it's the violence, it's the intimidation, it's the threats, it's the marches that continue, but they're not looking at the failure of their policies. liz: you know, it's the blame game; right? it's russia, it's james comey, it's everything else and not their lack of policies create job growth. i mean, even democrat factory workers are saying we can't vote for hillary. we don't have a job. so here's the question to you, colonel. would democrats rather have unsuccessful people in the cabinet. remember senator sanders went after that small business man recently and said i'm not concerned with your income. small businesses create the jobs. go ahead. >> well, it's about the denial. and

people who have to pay for it. >> harris: but some doctors don't take the plan. >> charles: to have chuck schumer out here complaining because the g.o.p. is forced to pick this up, very unpopular thing up and find some way to put it back together, i just thought it came as a fall. >> julie: but president obama promised that when the aca created it it would have more competition. he had all of the lackeys go out and talk about the government option that adds to the options that americans already have. in a third of the counties on the federal exchanges they have one option. a two-thirds of the county is, they only have two options. that is not a choice, that is not competition. to your point, it was meant to fail. it was all set up to fail. so we were left with no choice but single-payer coverage. >> julie: i don't understand why chuck schumer is being so negative about this except for spending the obama legacy, i don't know what his legacy is, and both of those things are cataclysmic failures. one of the things that they are talking about is that you are going to get rid of the mandate and then y

have derailed nominations. i'm not sure they will this time. >> i don't think they will either. chuck schumer is having a lot of fun. this is the best thing. get out and get the democrats' message out there. pick at all these problems whether big or small. you know, as the party of the opposition, that's his job and he's doing it beautifully and dramatically. as far as the pick goes, you know, i think they all get through. they just don't have the numbers to be able to not allow them. >> but get through bruised. >> absolutely. the minority party's job to start to take a stance on who they are going forward. it starts when you are in the minority. that's how you build. >> stick with us for a second. a lot to get through. another big hearing today. treasury secretary nominee steve mnuchin. former goldman sachs banker turned hollywood member. democrats could hit at another job. onewest. purchasing the failed lender indy mac. two filed a claim that onewest discriminated against north. blasting the practices. mnuchin is a critic of dodd-frank. trump wants tax cuts. lawmakers will ask how he wants

the head clown and the rest of the democrats are schumer clowns. >> they are the weakest they have been in modern times as a party. lou: will the delusional dems eventually come to their senses. we take up the morbidity of

will say they are going to have far more trouble than they ever imagined and as they move through it, they are going to start losing people on their side. >> senator schumer, we have a number of red tape democrats in the state that trump won overwhelmingly. [inaudible] >> we are telling the republicans, if you are repealing, show us what to replace it with first and then we will look at what you have been the wealthy can do. we are not going to. they are repealing it. we are not. it's their obligation to come up with replace first and i think we have unanimity within the democratic caucus on that position. >> can you give us some details specifically about how they'll say -- [inaudible] >> let me first say to the question that it's a very different story to take something away from someone. so our argument in terms of the affordable care at his people have enjoyed the benefit of it. i'm sure you've seen the articles coming out of kentucky where people voted eight to one and yet they all -- many of them are enjoying affordable overseas and benefits of the affordable care act that i didn't go to take that away. so it is one thing to say to people this is wh

tony: we have to work with definitions, who is defining mainstream? i don't think chuck schumer and i have the same definition, nor chuck schumer or mitch mcconnell and the president, who said the president's nominee will be confirmed. is very precise in his words. he doesn't just say things. he will follow through. .t is going to be a battle it will be a battle right now -- royale, but the president will get his nominee confirmed. like we did with justice alito when president bush made that nomination, we worked with senator frisk who was the majority leader in the senate, and we helped get him confirmed. so yes, we along with other organizations, if it is one of the justices that we are completely committed to, will help the grassroots to move the president and the republicans in the senate gain the confirmation. host: want to invite viewers calling in mr. perkins. 8000.ats to 2748 8002.ndents 748 let me get reaction to the house , passage of an abortions bill. i want to get your reaction to what nancy pelosi, democrat of california, had to say about this bill. , anybody five

>> first of all, chuck schumer and president trump have a long, long relationship together. donald trump has helped chuck schumer in his run for senate. donald trump has had massive fundraiser for chuck schumer. they have a personal relationship. and i have to tell you, when senator schumer says he is going to allow the vacancy in the supreme court to take as long as he wants, and he's going to hold up cabinet secretaries and he's targeting eight of them when only just a few short years ago it was the democrats that were saying we needed to move swiftly to approve these cabinet secretaries. eight cabinet secretaries were approved before president obama on day one, and now they turn around and say they're going to drag their feet and put people through the ringer. look, it's a frustrating situation. >> chris: i think you're seeinge frustration. >> chris: we got less than a minute left. the office of government ethics announced this week that it has been unable to complete background ethics checks on the number of trump's nominees and said it's a great concern that these confir

you have a number of red state democrats who are up for re-election in state that trump won wlomingly. are you really willing to tell them not to work with republicans on a replacement plan? mr. schumer: we are telling the republicans, if you are repealing, show us what you'll replace it with first and then we'll work -- then we'll look at what you have and see what we can do. we are not going to -- they're repealing. we're not. it's their obligation to come up with replace first. and i think we have unanimity within our democratic caucus on that position. reporter: can you give us details about what president obama said specifically to the group about what he'd like to do going forward and how he'll stay involved? ms. pelosi: let me first say to the question that it's a very indifferent story to take something away from someone. so our argument in terms of the affordable care act is, people have enjoyed the benefits of it. i'm sure you've seen the articles coming out of kentucky where people voted 8-1 for trump in districts and yet many of them are enjoying the -- over 60% of them are enjoying the benefits of the affordable care act and said, i didn't vote to take that away. it's on

ashley: would chuck schumer cry on this one. >> don't weep sad tears. ashley: you havenever seen chuck schumer cry, have you. >> he may be crying a lot more. ashley: we're already out of time, kevin paul scott, ellis, thank you very much. so much more on all the topics anyway tomorrow morning. maria bartiromo will take many of them up with florida congresswoman and former dnc chair debbie wasserman schultz. she will be interesting to talk to. "mornings with maria," 6:00 a.m. eastern. that is when it i can kicks off, debbie wasserman schultz. be interesting to see what her views are. >>> we can't forget about a slew of economic reports and earnings analysis that could move the markets. it will be a huge week. more than 100 s&p 500 companies out with results. we'll hear from apple, exxonmobil, facebook, merck, amazon among many, many others. so much happening on the economic front as well. biggest one are fed meeting and january jobs report. the news doesn't stop, does it. what matters the most for you and your money if that is the most important question. let's get strai

and the length of time the senators have had to ask questions. c what schumerwhat you sow. you made it difficult for us, we will make it difficult for you. >> they wanted to have more done by now sdplchlt th. >> they wanted more done by now. the ethics committee communicated they did not have as much information as they would like. part of the sessions are asking questions they would have known had they gotten forms earlier. to be fair, i understand kel kellyanne's frustration. they want to reveal who the people are to the voters. they he want to know where they stabbed. stand. one of the last things is, many stand in opposite areas of donald trump. >> the numbers here. eight years ago, seven appointments were confirmed on the first day. that is why the trump team pointed to it. they said we should get seven too. the two we know they will get is james mattis, secretary of defense, and john kelly. these are two important positions. you want someone leading up homeland security and the pentagon. you want secretary of state and secretary of treasury. one we knew w

have already said we will block someone who is not mainstream. schumer has gone on to say he does not expect mainstream nominees from this president. should republicans be prepared to use the nuclear option to change the rules so supreme court nominees will only need 51 votes? senator cassidy: i will echo mitch mcconnell, whoever the president nominates, assuming they are reasonable, they will get approved. period. >> it sounds like you are open to going nuclear. senator cassidy: i am open to doing what we need to do. i have great respect for the institution. i think there is such advantage for having to build bridges. obamacare past on strictly partisan lines. it never built a bridge and that is why it has never been fully accepted and is not being rejected. that is why i am trying to build a bridge and susan collins and others are trying to build a bridge. the supreme court is an opportunity for us to build a bridge. but if someone before someone is nominating declaring just as he did before reading my bill that he is going to reject it and totally rec

the new leader of the democrats in the senate as of today is senator chuck schumer. we have him here tonight. i won't let him leave. we'll be right back in just a moment. stay with us. >> my pleasure. from the first moment you met it was love at first touch and all you wanted to do was surround them in comfort and protection that's why only pampers swaddlers is the1 choice of hospitals protection to wrap your baby in blanket-like softness and premium protection mom: "oh hi baby" so all they feel is love wishing you love, sleep and play. pampers what bad back?gels work so fast you'll ask what pulled hammy? advil liqui - gels make pain a distant memory nothing works faster stronger or longer what pain? advil. like their photo claims tool. it helps settle your claim quickly, which saves time, which saves money. and when they save, you save. that's auto and home insurance for the modern world. esurance, an allstate company. click or call. esurance does inrance aompany. smarr way, which saves money. like bundling home and auto coverage which reduces red tape, which saves money. a

having his treasury secretary make the position known that china's currency manipulator and then work with us to monitor what is happening in japan as well. this is a serious issue. that senator schumer says many of us have been working on this for years. and it is time, if the president wants to do something that really means something, it will keep jobs in america. he needs to tackle currency manipulation and help us bring jobs home. >> two points. first, regarding mr. trump's delusional statement the 3 to 5 million people voted illegally in the last election. that is a total nonsensical statement. but what i fear about that statement and what is something we should all worry about is when donald trump talks about 3 to 5 million people voted illegally, he is sending a message. to every republican governor in this country to go forward with voter suppression. the great political and democratic crisis we face now in this country is not voter fraud it is voter suppression. and my belief is we have got to make, do everything we can to make sure that everybody in this country is legally able to and is able to vote. terms of the tpp i want to congratulate the millions of trade union in t

the new leader of the democrats in the senate as of today is senator chuck schumer. we have him here tonight. i won't let him leave.

. >> thank you, senator murray and senator schumer have both said it very well. let me just add a couple of additional points. if you are not a public official, became a smart investment is just that. it's smart. if you are a public official, however, at a minimum you have to be sensitive to conflict of interest in this is not political. independent authority, including some from the bush administration has made exactly the same point. and certainly, if you have used your position to gain inside information, that is a serious ethical breach. in this instance, there are reports, there are materials about congressman price that warrant a careful, thorough review, particularly with regard to investment in industry that he was directly regulate if he is confirmed to leave the department of health in humans services. and simply put, there is enough here that if you're serious about oversight, you can't simply say it's all a coincidence and then just move on. the finance committee has it their own history of vetting nominees that come before the committee. that is true
