look at the jeffries forecast. we are at 2.7.lude some physical stimulus to get you to 2.7. david: does it make sense that the small caps and mid-caps might do better? one of the initiatives has been deregulation. it is thought that would benefit smaller companies more than larger companies and that is more within the control of the executive branch. mr. desanctis: that is absolutely true. since the election, forecasts are up 21%. what gets priced into the stock? earnings,s forward you have a lot of good news priced into the stocks and you have a little bit of a holding or a time where we start to see the earnings growth come through. some tax cuts start to make their way through and companies can figure out what they want to do. i don't think we have seen that yet and again, you have this big run. we have volatility really low, that starts to pick up. the recentof leaders, banks, utilities, pharma, all within the russell 2000. what do you want to sell on this rally? mr. desanctis: frankly, the big .un is valued the value stocks

and a new york democrat who i will call out on your show, jeffries of new york who said steve bannon is a racist and should not meet with the cdc. you are a liar. i have known steve bnon longer than you will ever utter his name and it are you to face me on stuart varney and discuss how you present facts that call him a racist and that he is or you say that about donald trump. republicans for the longest time did not hit back against these democrats and opted for scorched earth and we are playing offense. stuart: the scorched earth policy could have successes. if democrats in congress can delay over a long time the repeal and reform of obamacare and then delay tax cuts and the tax-cut package, you delay, you obstruct, that could be construed as a success and they will claim a success. >> you know who it fails? who it fails is the american people. obamacare is failing. it provided access subsidized by taxpayers, we are still paying for, the cost is out the window, the tax relief package helps all-americans because these businesses hire americans, not left or right, don't just hire repu

politicaln the backdrop, david is with us from jeffries, chief european economist there. and enduring commitment to the eu, so says vice president mike pence. had you take these latest assurances? we have had assurances from various visiting americans, but they do contrast with the commander in chief. >> that's right. at the end of the day, the u.s. will want to have a close relationship with the eu common and the eu remains concerned that it remains high up in the countries it speaks to come a particular with brexit. if the u.k. will leave the eu, it is important the rest of the eu form solid relationships going forward. more aboutll talk the u.k. and a moment. one of the stumbling blocks seems to be contributions to nato. tothe u.s. is committed nato, and we are hearing those messages, if they are committed, there does seem an expectation that europe will have to pay more. which economies can afford to pay more for defense? >> everyone will have to pay a little bit more. it will be done by gdp and population-weighted numbers. i imagine that's how it will fall. there is

jeffries: it's about the potential crimes and the potential cover-up. 17 different intelligence agencies have concluded that the russians interfered with the election in order to help donald trump. top trump cronies like carter paige, paul maniford, and michael flynn all had regular communications with high-level russian intelligence agents at the same time they were engaging in hacking. the national security advisor resigned in disgrace. because of illegal communication with the russian ambassador. the president refuses to denounce vladimir putin and continues to try to make russia great again. connect the dots. it's time for house republicans to do your job and put country ahead of party. join us in a bipartisan investigation of the white house. what did the president know, and when did he know it? the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. the chair would remind members to avoid improper references to the president. for what purpose does the gentleman from kansas seek recognition? without objection. >> mr. speaker, i rise today on behalf of the many veterans and the wo
