this is rahm emanuel. said he's going to start a million dollar fund and he will use the money to defend illegal immigrants in the sanctuary city, chicago. now he's going up and down on the golden elevators. i don't know what he said to the cameras there. he's a dismal failure in chicago. stuart: we have a lot more coming up for you. stuart: you are looking at trump tower. moments ago we caught up with rahm emanuel who had been into the trump tower holding a meeting with president-elect trump. apparently in trump called rahm emuel and invited him in. i find this unusual. this is chicago, this is a spank wary city. >> he really went after them during the campaign. liz: trump has requested meetings with a number of u.s. mayors. trump is telling him, please don't support dreamers. mr. trump cop resind that. rahm emanuel says please don't do that. you will disrupt the lives of nearly 1 million people who are dreamers here. stuart: charles payne delivered to me the letter rahm emanuel sent to donald trump. it's

what do we know that the president-elect's meeting with rahm emanuel? >> reporter: it sounds like the mayor came their midtown manhattan with some advice and some explanation. the advice, the mayor says, was about white house operations. because emanuel was one of president obama's chief of staff. the mayor said he spoke to some top trump staffers about the way things should work when they start working in washington come january. as for the explanation that the mayor had for the president-elect, he said it was about immigration and specifically the reasons he thinks chicago works well as a sanctuary city. >> i was clear about where i stood and other mayors stood on immigrants, that we welcome them because they are striving for the american dream. but also then how to make as a city and a country key invest nmts both the talent, the training, as well as the transportation to drive economic growth. >> mayor emanuel said the president-elect told them on drop a line if he was ever in new york ask that is how this meeting came about. >> who else is on the gu

it's smart to listen to rahm emanuel, whatever he has to say.ael barone, i'm out of time, but you can come back any time. >> i will be here at 5:00 a.m. looking for you. stuart: i happened to walk into my office at 3:45. how does that grab you? look who is here? it's friday morning, 10: eastern time. juan williams, the author of "we the people." welcome back. are you ready for this? >> absolutely. love it. what the devil is your party up to going for keith ellison way out on the far left and nancy pelosi who has not led you to the promised land. >> let's look at keith ellison. ellison has been endorsed not only by elizabeth warren and bernie sanders, but also by charles schumer who is going to be the leading democrat in the senate. much of the allegations against ellison have to do with how he spoke about israel in the past. stuart: he's called an anti-semite. >> why would they endorse keith ellison? you have to remember young people in this country voted overwhelmingly for hillary clinton. they are the activist base of the democratic party. stu

trump called rahm emanuel to get advice on cabinet formation. how things work.president obama's first chief of staff. a lot of news coming out of trump tower today. i want to say, he says romney is still under consideration, which i was surprised. i thought that was done. the second thing that was said, he talked to president obama, apparently for 30 hours. apparently, they're now buddies or something. >> bffs? >> i don't know what's going on there. he said he doesn't believe there was any interference by russia. to get back to sanctuary cities, this is so interesting. most major american cities at this point are sanctuary cities. president-elect trump is going to have to keep a campaign promise at the same time as he tries to enforce the law. the question is, how does he do it? part of this equation is dreamers. young people who came to this country, brought here illegally by their parents. he is saying, part of that issue involves compassion, which siis interesting to me. i think he is right. >> i just want to -- the real reason why rahm was there because he k

but not just him, earlier donald saw rahm emanuel. i agree, he is the worst mayor since this give. ♪ a wonder >> pretty bad. make in mistake, rahm emanuel sucks with 600 murders in chicago, lead poisoning is airborne. >> how did the meeting with donald go? >> i was clear about where i stood and other mayors stood on immigrants, that weeing with them because they are frying for the american dream. >> how did donald receive him? >> i [ blank ]. and [ blank ]. [ inaudible ] >> that never loses. why would donald meet with him? rob didn't mind any reason to leave chicago and you know he did not want to go home, he could get shock there. trump offered, rahm emanuel who have taken the job of naval lint picker and picked mcman who ran the wwe to run the small business administration, which brings up, there is a small business administration? i had in idea. for labor secretary, he picked a fast food guy who runs carl's junior and hardy's. they have curly fries. that is enough tore me, america. so, we will look at the pecks so far, fast food, w

and if rahm emanuel says forget it, we're not going accept a billion and a half. they're bankrupt for cash. if he did say, that the strings would not follow. if the federal government could force the towns and cities and states to enforce its laws, the federal government could bankrupt the states and destroy their sovereignty and the constitution prevents that from happening. >> what's the upside? >> the upshot is money, the feds giving states money saying if you accept this, you agree to the strings. the supreme court said that is constitutional. trish: that's probably what's going to happen. if you are going to end sanctuary cities, we have to do it altogether. >> you're talking about that happening in late 2017 because the budget kicks in october 1st or in 2018. trish: he'll have to make a deal. that's it. judge napolitano. >> he's making deals, according to him! >> we'll see, breaking right now, update on the outage of those bloomberg terminals, traders use these things, they need them that's a platform for trading, and bloomberg is saying that the terminal fu

the phone president-elect trump told him to drop by trump tower if he was ever in new york and rahm emanuel is in new york. he's on an east coast swing. he'll be in washington later this week to deal with chicago's financial crisis so he dropped in trump tower. he had a few messages. one strong one he he wanted out most publicly is the dreamer situation. he also talked to trump about how to organize a white house. as a quick aside, mayor emanuel has said he will keep chicago's sanctuary city status. trump has said he doesn't want to give any federal funds to any cities that have that and a quick aside, all these mayors in the letters are democrats but we should be looking for trump's softening his position and letting these dreamers stay because that's what he's been saying as most recently in a new interview in "time" magazine. >> softening his position and yet immigration being such a huge part of his campaign. let's talk about "time" magazine, he was just named person of the year. donald trump gave an interview after he received the distinction and trump pointed out how much he actually

it sounds to me in listening to him here, and i know he spoke with chicago mayor rahm emanuel about thishis morning, who handed him a petition from other big city mayors. emanuel said, you can do this to these people. they have handed over their names and addresses to the government in good faith, and how do you just reverse that? and like with so many things with donald trump, it was almost as if he was hearing this for the first time. and said -- oh, wait a minute. that would not be a humane thing to do. so you can just see the wheels spinning here, and maybe he is rethinking what he might do through executive action, or legislation. >> in a separate interview with nbc's "today" show today they announced the person of the year on the td show. he then called in by phone. susan, he was once again very, very effusive in his praise of the outgoing president, president obama. said that they'd been talking and he's been getting advice, recommendations from president obama. listen to this -- >> i have asked him what he would think of this one and that one. i've asked him what he thinks are th

real quick, rahm emanuel, mayor of chicago, but probably more importantly for this conversation, former chief of staff to president obama, meeting with donald trump right now. your thoughts? >> why not. he met with the d.c. mayor, a little bit different, since donald trump will be sort of a d.c. resident, but look, it's not a surprise. i think given the cast of characters who have walked through that lobby at trump tower and i think we should again, take heart in that. we should also note that in this weird web of characters that are part of this scenario, ari emanuel, rahm's brother and a big hollywood agent, is also somebody who has been talking to donald trump behind the scenes. >> can't make it up. >> we need a flow chart. literally i'm going to get a punch board with string. it will be really pretty. great to see you guys. thanks so much. >>> ahead for us, in the words of the carrier union president, he quote, lied his ass off. he's talking about the president-elect and the deal to save jobs in indiana. up next, one of the workers whose jobs was saved in that deal joins me to discu

rahm emanuel. north carolina governor pat mccory was there as well, scott prewitt, and the ceo of hardee's and carl's jr. no idea if he came around lunchtime. pete doocy joining us now. let's start with the biggest question mark, rahm emanuel, any idea what they were talking about? >> reporter: the mayor told us his side of the story, martha. he went up to the 26th floor to talk to president-elect about white house operations and the way that things are going to run or should run in january when mr. trump moved to the white house. and emanuel, of course, drawing on his experience as one of president obama's chief's of staff. the mayor also says that the two of them, upstairs, were talking about why chicago works as a sanctuary city. >> i was clear about where i stood and other mayor's stood on immigrants, that we welcome them because they are achieving and striving for the american dream, but also how to make as a city and as a country key investments in both the talent, the training, as well as th

hasn't reached out to her but certainly reached out to rahm emanuel and those folks. come on. they will be remembered historically for their loss. history will analyze everything jennifer palmieri did wrong, what they missed. what a horrible candidate hillary clinton was. what sycophants she had surrounding her. she is having a hard time. i said earlier in the week on the couch, these people will not get hired to do anything interesting again in politics. final nail in the coffin. sandra: i remember that. meghan: big, big upset having donald trump win. all that being said, i think they're acting incredibly unprofessionally. they're acting like very poor losers, sore losers, if you want to reach out to the demographic donald trump earned this is the fairs way not to do it. >> meghan reminded me of something. practical reason not to be sore losers. they need jobs. they need democrats to hire them to run other campaigns. harris: meghan alludes to a good point. it isn't so much donald trump won, the fact that the best of their party lost and they shut out a portion of a big voice

i think you have seen that throughout this campaign and you will likely see that even in rahm emanuel, the mayor of chicago in the next couple days. so you do see him beginning to reach out and trying to bridge the divide and as you said, "time" magazine just named him president of the divided states of america. this is something he has to deal with, something he has to be able to bring america together and represent both the angry base that elected him but also the rest of the country, 2.5 million people who voted actually for the opponent, for his opponent. >> i want to get your take on trump tapping according to dana bash, iowa's governor as ambassador to china. obviously the governor was very loyal to donald trump throughout the campaign. we know trump likes that. but at the same time, this is someone who has a long history with china and also someone who knows frankly president xi. what do you make of this pick and how tough this job is going to be given all trump has said about china? >> i think this is a really fascinating pick. as you mentioned, the governor has known the pres

. >> you have to give the president credit for talking to rahm emanuel. emanuel said during the campaign. they disagree on nothing. the president wants to know, why are you providing legal services at the taxpayer expense to resist deportations? the deportations are required under federal law. president obama didn't do it but i will. and they're having that back and forth conversation. >> and we know how much the sanctuary cities and what that issue meant to the voters. we know it would have meant to donald trump as he met the victims -- >> it basically means a city or a town where they want to have expanded social services for undocumented immigrants. and they don't want to cooperate with the feds who are looking for undocumented immigrants. can they refuse to cooperate with the feds under the constitution and under the supreme court interpretation? yes. >> they can. and right now in chicago, if they want to -- if law enforcement wanted to do an illegal immigration raid, they couldn't. they were told not to. >> the feds could go in, but the chicago polic

rahm emanuel: i cannot believe i didn't think of that. this, you are of right.take is, this is politicians reacting the way the public sees these national governments dysfunctional. both forgovernment people that run for office but the public as well, it is the most intimate and immediate form of government people feel like they can control in a time when they feel like they lost control. it affects their lives more than disneyland on the potomac. i didn't want to insults disneyland -- to insult disneyland. i talked about what i had done with community college. -- i madeergarten kindergarten universal, all-day. wage, but wemum also, in chicago, the largest increase in time anywhere by any city with education. we added 2.5 years to a child's education. that was just by adding time to the day and year. now, the end result, the eighth graders lead the country in math. fourth graders lead the country in reading. one of only three school districts where math and reading went up. the graduation rate has grown by one third in five years. you connection have an impact o

i know one of the president's close bestties, rahm emanuel came out in chicago would do everything toct it as sanctuary city. kennedy: what about protecting people from gun violence and let them defend themselves. harris: what about the crime situation they have on weekends in chicago. might be time for him to do that. at least acknowledge this would be something that needs to be looked at. there is definite divide in country. donald trump is in the position to go one way. democrats will get left on the curb, and i don't know maybe they're comfortable being there on this issue. it is one really hallmark of this campaign. sandra: going back to kennedy's point, the headline in the washington time, chicago pushes a million dollars fund to protect anxious immigrants from trump deportations. rahm emanuel has much bigger job to do, to protect the residents of city of chicago has a major problem with violence. to be talking about this, saying we'll do everything in our power to insure immigrants remain safe, secure and supported. he is not focusing on political problems this the city. >> tha

i know rahm emanuel well. for the people of chicago to go through something like this, but i will say this, right? most american cities, unemployment rate is far lower than it was five years ago, 10 years ago. the crime rates are way down from where they were 20 and 30 years ago. in fact, if you travel around the united states, and i know you're in new york, trish, most urban areas in the united states, here in washington are far better than they were 15 or 20 years ago. so i think we're on the right track. trish: not chicago though. >> i'm not disagreeing with you on that. i'm saying in general, as context, right, we've reclaimed a lot of urban areas in the united states. i disagree with donald trump that there is this incredible tragedy in urban areas. so unemployment rate in chicago, i just checked is 5.6%. trish: 6.1%. that is okay. 6.1 is%. >> i checked november numbers. trish: so it is higher than national average but i will dispute on unemployment numbers. they include part-time workers. we've seen rece
