mr. mccarthy: looks like the senate will vote around 2:30. from an estimate time, probably around 4:30 today we'll be able to vote. we'll have a short time period back and forth and have the vote. reporter: [inaudible] mr. mccarthy: no. we won't do it under suspension. but i'm sure they will have a very big vote. get the government open. and hopefully we learn a lesson from this. hopefully never comes back to holding the government hostage from the standpoint that you're harming the children, you're harming the military. and we can be able to do bigger things now. reporter: a roll call vote because members want to be on the record showing they're opening the government? chip as well? mr. mccarthy: i've had numerous members on the other side of the aisle that want to be on a record. they're on a record right now of numerous votes against chip and others. and they want to be able to vote to open the government. reporter: leader mcconnell opened a path to consider immigration legislation on the senate side. what's your intention in terms of the

mr. mccarthy: mr. speaker, i yield myself four minutes. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. mccarthy: mr. speaker, for three days the nation has watched as tens of thousands of federal employees were forced to stay home. as our men and women in uniform went without pay, as opioid treatment centers got cut off, and as parents faced the harrowing prospect that their children would lose their health insurance. the american people never wanted this to happen. republicans in the congress did not want this to happen and we did everything in our power to make sure this didn't happen. the house passed a clean bill, a bipartisan majority in the senate voted to pass that clean bill, but senate democrats shut it down. we were told it was about immigration, but republicans always said that we would sit at the table. we already were at the table every single day before this shutdown. negotiating in good faith. despite this political drama -- mr. hoyer: mr. speaker, the house is not in order. i

mr. mccarthy: i thank the gentleman for yielding. the negotiations have been progressing further as they have been for the last month or so. i believe, as we both know, the need of this funding for our military. i believe that military should not be held hoss taj for any other issues. so i believe we can get to a solution here. i'm hopeful that those are -- who have been negotiating can find common ground in the next day or two so we can move forward. mr. hoyer: i thank the leader. nobody has any intention of course to hold the military hostage. the gentleman, the military, secretary mattis and his predecessors have all believed a c.r. is damaging to the military's ability to move forward and plan. i would suggest to my friend the majority leader, mr. speaker, that it is equally damaging to the nondefense side of the budget. administrators, secretaries, cannot plan for what resources they will have a month out two months out, or until september 3 of the end of the fiscal year. so that reaching agreement is important on both sides of

mr. mccarthy: mr. speaker, i yield one minute to the speaker of the house, paul ryan. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from wisconsin is recognized. the speaker: thank you. i ask unanimous consent to revise and extend my remarks and address the house for one minute. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. the speaker: i thank the gentleman for yielding. my colleagues, i want to say a few words about the last couple of days. i know there's great relief that this episode is coming to an end. this shutdown did not need to happen. however brief, it inflicted needless costs on the country. there are no winners here today. i want to make that clear. no winners except perhaps the millions of families who depend on the children's health insurance program. soon the longest re-authorization in the program's history is about to become law. but this is not a moment to pat ourselves on the back. not even close. we very much need to heed the lessons what have just happened here. we need to move forward in good faith. yes. on daca and immigration. yes, on funding

mr. mccarthy: mr. speaker, i send to the desk a privileged resolution and ask for its immediate consideration. spoiling the speaker: the clerk will report the resolution. the clerk: house resolution 677, resolved that a committee of two members be appointed by the speaker to notify the president of the united states that a quorum of the house has assembled and that thes who is ready to receive any communication that he may be pleased to make. the speaker: without objection, the resolution is agreed to and the motion to reconsider is laid upon the table. pursuant to house resolution 677, the chair appoints the following members to the committee to notify the president of the united states. that a quorum of the house has been assembled and that the house is ready to receive any communication that he may be pleased to make. the clerk: mr. mccarthy and the gentlewoman from california, ms. elosi. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from california seek recognition? mr. mccarthy: mr.

mr. mccarthy. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized for one minute. mr. mccarthy: i thank the gentleman for yielding. mr. speaker, the nation finds itself in a grave situation. our government has shut down. military men and women in afghanistan, in iraq, and around the world, are still risking our lives, their lives, for our country and they're not being paid. opioid treatment centers have had their funds cut off. children in states across america will start losing their health insurance. how did we get to this place? the nation assume there is must be a good reason. the house passed a bill. a clean government funding bill with no strings attached and no gimmicks. because states are running out of money. we even included funding for a bipartisan extension of the children's health insurance program for six years without any offset or democrat -- our democrat colleagues have objected to in the past. the longest the chip program has ever been re-authorized for. so we passed that bill and it went to the senate. we all know the rules. mr. speaker, at times, it

mr. mccarthy or somebody else says you're letting down the military, the chairman of the armed services committee, republican, mac thornberry of texas, voted against that c.r. now, having said that, senator schumer and leader pelosi have been working for some time to try to get to an agreement. so senator schumer knows what our priorities are. and i'm sure he's going to be discussing with leader pelosi on a very close basis as soon as he gets back as to what was discussed. having said that, i hope they reach an agreement. i hope they reach an agreement on the things that i mentioned, on which we have agreement. including the caps, including dreamers, including chip. and including all the other things that i mentioned. so i'm hopeful that the president of the united states, as did he in september, we had a no-drama action, having to pass the c.r. every democrat voted for it. it was a no drama. why? because the president said, that makes sense, we have agreement. let's move forward. which is exactly what we did. i hope that senator schumer and the president get to that point and -- because i think

mr mccarthy you felt forced to take your son out of a well regarded school and then why. he was reviled as a jew. friends found out he was jewish they said we can't play with you anymore. then he was increasingly hit and kicked. his hat was knocked off his head. but never let up and it culminated in very hard beatings fest he still has the remains of a huge bruise on his back. so the climax that led us to take him out of the school was a mock execution with a very real looking replica of. that he was strangled in till he became unconscious . how did his bullying start ditto somewhere a keeper. you know. he never said he was jewish until one day in ethics class the teacher said we're going to learn about the world's major religions. which houses of worship do you know about the pupil church mosque church. church. and he said synagogue. and the teacher said oh how do you know about synagogues are you a jew and he said yes that's when the anti-semitic attacks began. that's when this bullying was going on long before the pistol incident you contacted the school administration

mr. mccarthy: looks like the senate will vote around 2:30. from an estimate time, probably around 4:30 today we'll be able to vote. we'll have a short time period back and forth and have the vote. reporter: [inaudible] mr. mccarthy: no. we won't do it under suspension. but i'm sure they will have a very big vote. get the government open. and hopefully we learn a lesson from this. hopefully never comes back to holding the government hostage from the standpoint that you're ha

mr. mccarthy, that there were a number of items that they wanted to discuss. when you have a negotiation, each party, each side has items that they want to discuss and obviously that's going to be appropriate. so we'll do that, but we had a meeting yesterday with mr. mccarthy, senator durbin, senator cornyn and myself to try to get the process which we could discuss the issues that both sides want to discuss. we believe central to any action that we take is the protection of the d.r.e.a.m.ers, making sure that they stay here in this country, the only country that they really know, and a policy that is supported by the overwhelming majority of the american public and i would suggest apparently supported -- he was articulating his support of that with dianne feinstein. senator grassley said the same thing. at the end of the meeting the president said, is there anybody here in the room -- and there were 24 members, 17 senators, 7 house members. is there anybody in this room who disagrees with protecting the d.r.e.a.m.ers? he said daca, but the d.r.e.a.m.ers. and

mr. mccarthy: thank you, jason. good luck with the vikings. unbelievable game, was it not? every day we come turn on the news and what do we find? more employees are getting bonuses. said more than two million. there's one part as you see these more than $1 billion put out. there's something more that's happening. the times that we find just as baltimore gas and electric lowering their rates, passing on the tax benefits to all their customers. then what did we find last week? not only were bonuses going out but raises so people were getting more. the minimum wage was getting raised in smeen companies. but maternity leave now is longer for thousands of americans. that's much different than a crumb or armageddon. that is the beginning of america's comeback. i know we have challenges before us this week. fund the military. it is at a deadline. the children's health insurance program, chip, two times we have voted to move that off this floor. but both items the democrats have not only said no, they whipped their members to hold them back. we have states that are being challenge

mr. mccarthy. mr. mccarthy: i ask unanimous consent to revise and extend my remarks. mr. speaker, on monday, no votes are expected in the house. on tuesday, the house will meet at noon for morning hour and 2:00 p.m. for legislative business. votes will be postponed until 6:30 p.m. on wednesday and thursday, the house will meet at 10:00 a.m. for morning hour and noon for legislative business. last votes of the week are expected no later than 3:00 p.m. mr. speaker, the house will consider a number of suspensions next week, a complete list of which will be announced by close of business tomorrow. in addition, the house will consider two measures from the financial services committee. first, h.r. 2954 the home mortgage disclosure adjustment act sponsored by representative emmer, this bill provides targeted regulatory relief to local banks and credit unions. second, h.r. 3326, the world bank accountability act, sponsored by representative andy barr. next week, our nation's cap tl will also welcome tens of thousands of americans to washington for the annual march for life in co

more power to mr mccarthy.led? mr mccarthy! he is right next to the president. it obviously works. this is how to get to his heart. it is also one of my five! my favourite is clearly the greenlands, i'm hoping yours aren't. we would have to fight over them and that would be boring —— the green ones. pink and red is the colour of the day, which is why you are wearing it today! we spent the budget of the programme, the annual budget, on sta rbu rsts programme, the annual budget, on starbursts today. our producer has picked out one of the pink and red ones. but he did send a jar with his name on it to the president and a p pa re ntly name on it to the president and apparently be president smiled, he liked it, and not! and some republicans have suggested that he has become too cosy... he has referred to his own gemma fabia, —— phobia of germs, in context to the christopher steele dossier, he said that would never happen to him, he is afraid of germs. but what has been said on health and the issue of being slightly

mccarthy, scalise, mrs. mcmorris rodgers and mick mulvaney. and when it was time to open it up, ryan, scalise and mulvaney oted to keep government shut down. democrats are not about shutting down the government. don't hand us that. i hope the overtures that are being made on the other side will lead to something very positive. we had a very positive caucus this morning and again following up on acting upon their values are determined to stay to get the job done, a champion rallying those forces is our distinguished majority whip for the moment -- steny hoyer. mr. hoyer: whatever i am, i'm pleased to be here. all of you know, republicans control all the levers of government. they control the house, they control the senate, the white house and as dick durbin said this morning, they control the supreme court. notwithstanding that, we are now some 140 days into the fiscal year and we have not sent a single appropriation bill to the president of the united states. why have we not done that? because it would have required compromise. it would have r

mr. mccarthy a question, do you really think there can be agreement on those three difficult subjects that you raised, in time to get daca past and to ask mr. mccarthy a question, do you really think there can be agreement on effec- leaderhave heard from mcconnell, and speaker ryan, who said they will put the bill on the floor if the president agrees to it. as getting to the room, i haven't seen us be this close and having this discussion in quite a few years, so i think, yes, we can make this happen. we all know it. we've done it before. you and i spent a long time, we did one of the most difficult things in california water and i believe we can get there and we -- we did one of the most difficult things to do in california, water, and i believe you can get there. we can keep working each day on this. president trump i think what : we're all saying is we'll do daca and we can start comprehensive immigration reform the following afternoon, ok. we'll take an hour off and then we'll start. but i do believe that. because once we get daca done if it's done properly with security and everything

mr. mccarthy and i and the majority whip of the senate, john cornyn and dick durbin and i are trying to seewe can move forward. frankly, we haven't moved forward yet. yes, the president -- it's nice he stays in washington. but it's not where he physically is located that's the issue. it is that he frankly changes his mind from hour to hour as to what he's for. and it apparently depends on which staffer talks to him at which time. >> congressman steny hoyer, we appreciate you coming on with us. we know you're going to have a very busy day. we'll be watching it closely. thanks for being here. >> thanks. >>> we have new details about what happened inside that house of horrors in california. the couple on your screen accused of torturing their own kids. we have a live report next. >>> look, this is a terrible story, but we need to understand how this happened to this family in california and who might have known. tese people, the turpins, they are accused of just horrific acts against their own kids, 13 of them. prosecutors say their kids were held captive, tortured. david and louise turpin, th

mr. mccarthy a question. do you really think there can be agreement on those three difficult subject to raise in sed and get daca pas effective? >> you heard from leader mcconnell and speaker ryan who said they will put the bill onto the floor if the president us getting tond the room, haven't seen us being this close in having this discussion in quite a few years. i think we can make this happen. we've all done it before. we did one of the most difficult things to do in california. i believe that we can get there and we can just keep working each day on this. we are allrump: saying we will do daca and we can certainly start comprehensive immigration reform the following afternoon. we will take an hour off and then we will start. i do believe that. once we get daca done, and if some property -- properly with security and everything else, we've taken a big chunk of comprehensive out of the negotiation. i don't think it's going to be that complicated. >> in my opinion, we will be right back here in five years o

these are the old enemies and they're behind this unrest but but he also said the senior cleric mr mccarthy said that they do recognize the government iranian leaders do recognize that the grievances of protestors are real and there are economic conditions that aren't perfect and they need to be addressed so there is some indication that they do have sympathies with the demonstrators that are demanding better economic circumstances for themselves and their families zain thank you for that zain that's not the life i think. russia says it hopes to. between north korea and the south will lead to agreements that settle tensions on the korean peninsula after years of silence talks which in pyongyang in seoul is scheduled to restart on tuesday they are said to focus initially on north korea's were to sufficient in next month's winter olympics in kyung chan but officials in seoul say discussions are expected to move on to what they call other areas of common interest florence we reports from seoul. in a few days the truce village of panmunjom on the demilitarized zone that separates north and sout

mr. mccarthy and mr. canter and mr. ryan wrote the book. they were very critical of earmarks, talking about your party, not my party but talking about how they had expanded and in effect we came to washington and we became washington. i'm not one of those who believes that's a legitimate argument just because you are in washington. there are good people in washington and good people around the country. hopefully, we pay attention to the good people. at that point in time, it became clear to your party that you had substantially escalated earmarks in the "young guns," which was written in 2010. it may have been 2009. those three leaders were very critical of them. speaker boehner was not a proponent of earmarks. i think one could say he was an opponent. it was then that you eliminated them in your rules in 2011, the earmark process. >> so now you are making me admit publicly that i have not read their book. >> i'll tell mr. mccarthy not to hold you personally responsible for that.

the fact that kevin mccarthy had to step in and said, okay, mr. president we're not going to do a clean daca bill, displays a lack of his deep policy knowledge. it doesn't mean you're mentally deteriorated. >> let's play it for people who may have missed this extraordinary. >> can we just say chris cillizza is not unfit. >> chris has watch issues. i just want to say. >> it is is a swatch. people people say it's a very nice watch. >> what do the polls say? >> let's watch this moment and then we'll talk about the watch. >> show your watch, by the way. >> this should be a bipartisan bill. this should be a bill of love. okay. if we do this properly, daca, you're not so far away from comprehensive immigration reform. and if you want to take it that further step, i'll take the heat. i don't care. we'll do daca and we can certainly start comprehensive immigration reform the following afternoon. okay. we'll take an hour off and then we'll start. >> jeffrey, wasn't that fascinate something wasn't it also instructive to be truly a fly on the wall to watch h

mr. mcconnell, scalise, mccarthy. this is the sausage-making of politics and the proverbial chefs will be in the kitchen to make something happen. not just that, but i want to share something about a phone call the president made last night. he reached out to the former governor of the state of massachusetts, mitt romney who is presumed to be the leading candidate to replace orrin hatch. fox news is told the two men talked about hatch, not so much about the fact that he likely is to replace hatch in the senate should he decide to be the candidate to run. the men have had, let's just say, a mixed bag relationship in the past. i'm sure there was a little fence mending and maybe some cumbaya. >> neil: kevin, the president initiated the call to romney? >> you can never be sure who initiates. typically what happens, one party will say if you'd like to speak with the president, you're more than welcome to call at this particular time. i didn't drill down on if romney made the call or his people initiated it. >> neil: that's

and i think it's kevin mccarthy steps in and said, well, mr. president. so what's really difficult here is i think the most revealing thing he said was at the end where he said my views are going to be the views of the people in this room. for all the focus on the wall, that was a political thing that he happened into that, yes, oh, people like the wall, okay, we will say more about it. he lacks any cohesive set of views on this and frankly most things. he is very flexible. i would not take that to the ba bank. >> hold on. i want to talk about style over substance if you will indulge me. forget if the wall comes out or if it's 700 miles or whatever. that moment is why people voted for president trump. they wanted him to shake up the establishment and do something refreshing. he did it. we're all used to nothing happening in the meetings. that's what we were predicting. it looks like the spur of the moment. because the lawmakers didn't know what he was going to do. he said why don't you guys stay to the cameras. we get to see fly on the wall these people n

the president had to have kevin mccarthy tell him what he thought, no, no, mr. president, that's not what you think and this is what you think, and it was remarkable and maybe counter to what the white house was trying to display. and the other theme is the idea expressed he has no view on any of it. he said i will sign what you all bring to me in this room even if i don't love it. that, too, a very interesting stance. >> yeah, interesting and also a problem for congress and for the president who wants to pass his agenda. the prevailing wisdom among members of congress is the president will say -- when you are in a meeting with him -- what he thinks you want to hear and then days or a couple weeks later take to twitter, and he did that with the obamacare compromise, and he did that with democrats when he dined with them last fall to talk about the d.r.e.a.m.ers. bottom line, a year into his presidency trump does not have a working relationship with congress. they have had to figure out how to work with him and around him. i don't see how the president tries to l

mr. trump appeared willing. >> we're going to come up with daca, do daca and start immediately on the phase two comprehensive. mccarthyl of conservative opposition redirected the president. >> mr. president, you need to be clear, i think what senator feinstein is asking here. when we talk just daca, we don't want to be back here two years later. you have to have security as the secretary would tell you. >> i think that's what she is saying. >> i think she is saying something different. >> mr. president. >> i think you are saying daca without security. >> mr. trump seemed to be in a mood to make a deal. pressing the lawmakers to go further. >> if we do this properly, daca, you are not so far away from comprehensive immigration reform i you want to take it that further step. i will take the heat, i don't care. >> he did renew calls for a border wall. >> i would love not to build the ball. you need the wall. >> we are prepared to work with the president on border security which means many things to many people. >> reporter: approving daca will ex-pose the president to charges he sold out his political base. that's why th

mr. mccarthy: thank you, jason. good luck with the vikings. unbelievable game, was it not? every day we come turn on the news and what do we find? more employees are getting bonuses. said more than two million. there's one part as you see these more than $1 billion put out. there's something more that's happening. the times that we find just as baltimore gas and electric lowering their rates, passing on the tax benefits to all their customers. then what did we find last week? not only were bonuses going out but raises so people were getting more. the minimum wage was getting raised in so many companies. but maternity leave now is longer for thousands of americans. that's much different than a crumb or armageddon. that is the beginning of america's comeback. i know we have challenges before us this week. fund the military. it is at a deadline. the children's health insurance program, chip, two times we have voted to move that off this floor. but both items the democrats have not only said no, they whipped their members to hold them back. we have states that are being challen

. >> house majority leader mccarthy interjecting this. >> mr. president, you need to be clear, and i think what senator feinstein is talking about, when you talk about daca, we don't want to be back here later, you have to have security. >> the white house offering little clarity. >> it has to be part of the deal in order for the d.r.e.a.m.ers -- >> border security does have to be part of the process. >> you understand how a wall can be different than border security -- >> no, actually i don't. >> it could be agents or more fencing. >> that's part of the negotiation. >> president trump tweeting later a wall has to be part of any daca approval. >> and the performance on tv was to put to rest his concerns about fitness for office circulating over the last few days. we do expect to see the president here at the white house in a news conference with the prime minister of norway today. it will be the president's first formal news conference with the national news media since about november. back to you, alisyn. >> interesting, joe. thank you for all

mr. trump appeared willing. >> we'll do daca. and then we can start immediately on the phase two which would be comprehensive. >> reporter: then house majority leader kevin mccarthyndful of conservative opposition, redirected the president. >> mr. president, you need to be clear, though, i think ha senator feinstein is asking here, when we talk about daca, we don't want to be back here two years later. you have to have security, as the secretary would tell you. >> i think that's what she says. >> oh, no, no, i think she's saying something different. >> what do you think you're saying in >> i think you're saying daca without security. >> reporter: but mr. trump seemed to be in a mood the make a deal, pressing the lawmakers to go further. >> if we do this properly, daca, you're not so far away from comprehensive immigration reform. and if you want to take it that further step, i'll take the heat. i don't care. >> reporter: he did renew his calls for a border wall. >> i would love not to build the wall, but you need the wall. >> reporter: afterward, the number-two house democrat steny hoyer left the door open. >> we are prepared to work with the president on border

not even sure he understood how that's commonly used, then you had mccarthy, senator mccarthy jump in and say actually, mrt, i think what you mean is this. congressman mccarthy, i should point out. >> yeah. this is all very peculiar and it is unprecedented at least in my experience going back some time. anderson, listen, typically, you will have in any white house factions and usually there's a moderate versus hardline or more extreme group in the white house and they pit off against each other and try to bring in different people representing their views to the president. what was unique about this, in my experience, was that the president himself said i would like to talk to these two guys. he seemed to be -- you know, dur bib had a conversation with him, the president called durbin around 10:00 in the morning and durbin called lindsey graham and said i had the best conversation i've had with the president in a long, long time, i'm really optimistic we're going to get this done, he wanted us to come down to the white house right away. it was the white house staff, not a faction within the white house, b

listen to what happens when kevin mccarthy chimes in. >> mr. president, you need to be clear, though. i think what senator feinstein is asking here, when we talk about daca, you have to have security, as the secretary would tell you. >> so the president began agreeing with him as well. >> it's kind of like three pillars. daca, because we're all in the room want to do it, border security, so we're not back out here, and chain migration. it's just three items and then everything else that is comprehensive has moved to the side. so i believe when -- >> and the lottery. >> if you can end merit basis. >> i don't know who is going to argue with merit based. >> so in the space of two minutes, he seemed to flip back. >> i think what we're all saying is we'll do daca and we can certainly start comprehensive immigration reform the following afternoon. we'll take an hour off and then we'll start. >> the president remembers some of the hard line measures and talking to democrat dianne feinstein, it's dreamers first and then what he calls comprehensive immi
