you also have an ongoing dispute between the head of the progressives, congresswoman janet paul, and nancy pelosi is a frame work? is it a list? is it legislative text? >>. >> is just one more factor that could cloud down this process. first to what the president is doing here he will be reaching out to lawmakers. will there be meetings that remain to be seen. the takes are high for all of the withins that you laid out. he is going overseas tomorrow and the stakes could not be higher. they need a deal before he departs. the world leaders o so fest cased enough to come to their own conclusions about what commitments they may or may not make. but just take that climate summit. he will be asking various world leaders to make commitments when it comes to climate and the optics could be difficult. you think about the domestic politics, the fact that he was out overnight campaigning for terry mccauliffe, that was next tuesday. they said that the president and lawmakers need to get into a room and work out their differences. it could have a difference next week. i spoke to voters, unaffiliated voters al

the real corruption is both parties and congress that make sure whether it's paul ryan or nancy pelosi to cover for the wealthy to cover for wall street. i sound like bernie sanders, but i, i agree with the corruption. i just think that the, the real best path forward is more transparency, not less as we've seen. now we'll get maybe get to the story we have insiders at the fed trading stocks trading on insider information when you and me and natasha are, are stuck trying to figure out what's gonna happen next. so more transparency is good, but don't be surprised that people use incentives and are, are moved by those incentives, care of and, and as you just mentioned, you know, there were several media reports made today regarding allegations of potential trading scandals. so and what are your thoughts on the claims made that the federal vice chair treated millions one day before the chair made a statement about the pandemic? well, it's a scandal and the guy should resign yesterday. i mean and look, i don't even know if these are public. i don't know what his positions are. it's just a

paul begala, were you surprised by pelosi's letter? she said we'll have to d

after meetings between speaker pelosi and for miller jaya paul there does seem to be a significant amountopposition to voting on an infrastructure bill until there is an actual boat on the -- vote on the tax and spend reconciliation bill at a point where they need to try to with the votes to get to the point where republicans can make up for any loss, progressive votes could do it, but as of late yesterday it didn't look like there was a clear path forward on doing infrastructure without reconciliation. tom: from the congressman west -- west virginia, they talked about a vague agreement in principle. is that what you are giving, jack? agreements in principle? or are they actually legislating? jack: right now they are talking bullet points rather than legislative language and it would probably take a while to turn these proposals into legislative language. what we saw last night on the so-called billionaires tax proposal from senator wyden is a summary and somewhat detailed list of how it would work, but we don't have a bill on that. senate democrats, to support this, they said they need m

paul: before the election, is that what you are saying? >> yeah. nancy pelosi's goal october 31. s between china and taiwan. a stark new warning from beijing about u.s. intervention. we have that next. ♪♪ paul: tensions between china and taiwan continue to rise with the chinese president with xi jinping saying it must be fulfilled. it comes after china said a record number of jets into the defense so last week and amid reports that they have been secretly training military forces there. state media warning that america military intervention and taiwan would be an "deathblow to u.s. soldiers". let's bring in chad, a fox news senior strategic analyst. general, thanks for coming in. put yourself in the mind of xi jinping. on the one hand, sending all of these jets into taiwan airspace come up more than we have seen in a long time. on the other hand, they say we are for the peaceful reunification of taiwan. what is he thinking? >> well, he actually subscribes pretty faithful, i think, to a highly respected chinese strategists. always postulates that the first with any adversary is to

paul begala, were you surprised by pelosi's letter? she said we'll have to do what the moderates want to do. >> she has a grasp of the obvious. she's grounded in reality which some of my friends in the party opposite are not. she's just stating the facts. she wanted the much bigger package. she's going to have to compromise. i committed mathematics before this show. let's say they get a $2 trillion deal. add that to the american rescue package. add that to $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure package, which i think will pass. you get 5, count them, $5 trillion. the size of the entire american economy under ronald reagan. this is not a small deal. this is a huge deal. >> even for $5 trillion democrats could clearly explain what people are getting because i understand that we've already spent trillions. people are already getting money in their checking accounts but they don't seem to be giving joe biden any credit because the polls are tanking. >> because of the infighting. >> nancy pelosi is upset the media isn't covering the bill.

pelosi is going to make things worse with the biggest tack hike in decades. paule big problem is the democrats are trying to pass a bernie sanders budget with a joe manchin mandate. and they're trying to pass this gargantuan program. but that seems, that ad we showed seems to be the big vulnerability here for these swing district democrats. what do you think? >> they know it as well, paul. in the last election, many freshman democrats lost to republicans in swing states like florida, new mexico, texas. they lost these republicans this new york and california as well. those house democrats are well aware of their vulnerability, and and they do not want to take another fight for nancy pelosi and the progressives. that's why they're having these problems. paul: okay. when we come back, president biden's botched afghanistan withdrawal the focus of a pair of hearings on capitol hill this week with america's top generals contradicting their commander in chief. general jack keane is here with reaction next. ♪♪ my retirement plan with voya keeps me moving forward. they gu

paul ryan and john boehner. blake androff served with house speaker nancy pelosi. good morning, gentlemen. >> good morning. >> good morning. host: let's get right into it. we will start with you, brendan. how are president biden's major initiatives, the budget bill and the infrastructure bill, faring in congress right now? guest: infrastructure could be a win if they just chose to. it's sitting there in the house and they're making a political calculation not to pass it. what is in real trouble is the broader reconciliation that build back better act. frankly, i think they are nowhere right now. they talked for many months about a $3.5 trillion plan. it's very clear at this point it's going to be much less than that, but there are some really pacic fundamental questions -- basic fundamental questions that they don't have answers to yet and it tells you, you are a long way away. they don't know what the top line number is going to be. they don't know how to approach writing a bill at a lower number, whether the question they're debating is whether you do fewer thing

paul ryan, ask john boehner. i would tell you, that with speaker pelosi, we are going to get it done. i don't know if it will be on tuesday but we will get it done this week. arthel: quickly, what's the success rate past this week? next stop is the senate. >> well, one of the things that the group of nine and this is one of the ideas that i pushed very hard that before we vote on something on the house side it's got have the approval of all 50 democrats including my friends, senator joe manchin and kyrsten sinema. i want to make sure that all 50 senators are on board before we move something forward in the house. i don't want to see a ping pong on this. we've got to get the democrats in the senate over so it's as you can understand, to get that on both sides instead of having a paint bomb, have you to thread that needle very carefully and i think we'll be able to do this a very surgical way. arthel: okay. well, we will have you back on to -- after the results are in, techs as congressman henry cuellar, thank you very much for joining us. >> thank you so much. arthel: as the heated gov

pelosi is experiencing now, it is difficult. this is not different from what john boehner and paul ryan went through some years ago where the freedom caucus would call for more, never settle for anything. and a lot of times everyone got nothing. obviously republicans paid a heavy political price. i think what speaker pelosi is saying is let's be smart about this, let's give ourself the best chance of getting what we believe is good policy and not ruin our chances to hold the house in 2022. >> what do you see as the relative risk here if democrats do get nothing? you've got debt limit, infrastructure, government funding, the budget bill. the only people who like deadlines more than reporters are members of congress. but is there substantial risk if they get jammed, this congress funds the government, pushes back the debt ceiling somehow and everything else falls apart? >> i think they will sort everything out, but there is some risk here. some of this is becoming personal. some of the centrist democratic members in the house, i'm not just talking joe manchin and kyrsten sinema, they feel very insulted. they feel hurt that their coll

pelosi, we should see her around 2:00. she's meeting with the progressive caucus on the house side. and congressman jaya paul who heads up the progressive caucus says right now there are too many no votes for the bipartisan infrastructure bill to pass on thursday. he said they would have an infrastructure today and it really makes you wonder whether or not that will happen. and you start to look at the calendar. if it's not tomorrow, is it next tuesday? if it's not next tuesday, you're going to wait until the president comes home from his trip at scotland and he will ask yourself, what was today all about? it was more i think confusion, perhaps the time element starts to compress the thought, to move forward and give that initial advantage to get somewhere. >> sandra: you didn't get the sense that he had a deal, you got the sense that he was pitching and selling. >> john: i would agree with that. what's all this now and in the meantime you got another fox news alert. the state of florida is suing president biden, nasa and several administration officials and agencies of recovered vaccine mandates. at this as

in a statement, house speaker nancy pelosi said, quote, his leadership strengthened america and his life embody the american dream. governor gavin newsom called paul a patriot who broke barriers and work across political lines toward what he believed was the very best for the nation. former president bill clinton is back home in new york after being released from a california hospital. >> he was seen walking out of that hospital yesterday morning. this was in the city of orange. his wife, hillary was there. the 75 year-old had spent a few days at the hospital for treatment of a urinary tract infection which spread to his blood stream and cause sepsis could have been very serious. he was in southern california last week too, at 10 benefits and events on. but half of his charitable foundation. >> the battles mother charged with hosting drunken parties for teenagers and encouraging some of them to have while she reportedly watched is set to return to the bay area tomorrow. that mother had moved to idaho with her 2 sons. and now officials are looking into whether she held similar illegal bash is there. for more on the latest on this developing case 12

biden and nancy pelosi and the entire democratic party is being controlled by the far left socialist progressives that you played earlier today. the cori bushes, the aocs, the camilla jaya pauls, who do not represent every day working americans and when it comes to the price tag of the bill, sean, they are cooking the books. this is going to cost the american people over $10 trillion if you look at it in a 10-year window, they are just expiring these programs which they have every intention to try to continue in perpetuity. they are cooking the books to hide the price tag from the american people, and it is not just the fact that it is the largest tax increase and the largest spending bill in our nation's history, it is riddled and loaded up with far left policies like mass amnesty for illegal immigrants, heat your home taxes we are heading into what will be the most expensive winter ever in our nation's history, so this is absolutely a bad deal for the american people, but the progressives -- they are controlling nancy pelosi right now, who is a lame duck speaker of the house. >> sean: can you see a scenario, kellyanne, we both have been doing this for a long time, is there

paul ryan had trouble wrangling everybody together and they said he wasn't strong enough. in the end, how did republicans get things done and, is this very similar to what nancy pelosi is going through? >> you know, the way that john boehner treated us or got around us was he actually cut deals with the democrats, which i think ultimately contributed to his early departure. i don't see nancy doing that i don't think she she has the ability to stand up to her left the way that boehner stood up to his right wing. but, what you need to see is nancy knows. this she needs to make them vote. it's easy to say how you are going to vote much harder to vote and they haven't been tested on that yet. >> brian: doesn't look like have to have a vote. promised a vote last night and monday and wednesday. we will see if we get one over the weekend. you guys have been down here before. thank you so much for sharing your inner sight. marc and mick, have a good weekend. >> thanks. >> brian: we talked to the parents of stuart scheller who is still behind bars at this hour speaking the truth to power. first vaccine mandates in the military, our schools, and even the nba have people asking the sam

paul krugman meanwhile saying he views the plan as something where liberals gave biden a tactical victory here, holding the line and smoking out new information from the conservative holdouts in the senate. pelosi for her part projecting cool confidence about the negotiating left to do. >> after hours of meetings, the two sides still seem trillions of dollars apart. how do you bridge did gap? >> we're not trillions. >> speaker pelosi, will there be a vote today? >> when we have the vote -- >> the votes require those liberals in the house, and one of their most prominent leaders, aoc, is channelling tom pety vibes by insisting democrats won't back down saying they won't compromise by taking any more vague frameworks from the likes of joe manchin. >> reporter: is it framework enough? >> no. >> reporter: an agreed-upon framework? >> no, we need to vote. we need to be real. are we going to deliver universal pre-k to the country or not? are we going to expand health care to our seniors or not? are we going to invest in housing so people at home in nycha can get hot water or not? that's what we need to know. >> it is true that this week's showdown brought new details out of senator manchin, while the
