rendell's saying, "you know what, when i took the job, i fired 25% of the people."o, how are you to look at this? is this shocking or sensible? >> it was not rolled out in a smart, managerial process. it reminded me of the travel ban, because it was just so haphazard and not well thought out and incompetent, frankly. yes, the coach gets to pick the team. but we also expect the coach to treat his players with respect, and you had people like carlos vega, who's a 35-year prosecutor, who is told to pack up his bags and his desk and leave and gets escorted out of the building as if he were a criminal. you know, a young female d.a. fired in the hallway. this had the stench of if not vendetta, then at least incompetence. >> tam -- bravo, larry. larry said pretty much everything i wanted to say, but my problem, among many problems, is the manner in which our new district attorney treated the people who had given their lives, decades in many cases, mark gilson. a lot of people who may have had a different philosophy from the new coach, who has absolutely every right to fiel

and in all due respect to governor rendell, it is not rhetoric when we say that democrats are holdinge of 9 million children and 2 million of them sick hostage to the fate of 700,000 illegal immigrants. that is truthful. "the washington post" glem kessler dismantled the jimmy kimmel argument that that was not true. it is true that the house passed a bill to sustain c.h.i.p. democrats have never produced legislation to sustain c.h.i.p. the short-term c.r. funding in december maintained funding for c.h.i.p. republicans have sustained funding for this. democrats have not even produced a piece of legislation. if they care so much, they would have showed and give the 9 million children to access of health care. >> and caylee, republicans control the white house and the house and the senate. and i've asked a number of your republican colleagues about this. but don't republicans ultimately bear responsibility. you guys have control of the government right now. >> we do. and that is why the house did pass a c.h.i.p. bill to fund c.h.i.p. but ultimately when we get to the senate, we all know t

michael rendell was upset because she forgot about those folks. so i agree with tammy, going to the folks who got him here in the first place is the way to get it done. >> i think there are other unintended consequences. remember unintended consequences under democrats it was things like people lose their health insurance and can't afford the premiums. these unintended consequences such as jobs coming back from overseas and all these bonuses and benefits will keep replicating themselves. when if you free a market economy like this, things that are good happen and continue to happen. charles: success begets success. tammy: here is something none of us anticipated. this is a stimulus. if you have 2 million workers spending a $1,000 or $2,000 bonus, nobody saw that coming. charles: we have 48 hours potentially for a government shutdown. lawmakers trying to cut a deal to keep the government open. the central piece of this is immigration and the wall. and overall spending is in jeopardy. listen, we have seen this movie so many times before that we almo

joining me, rick tyler, msnbc political analyst and ed rendell, former pennsylvania governor and nbc analyst. the feet twooet frtweet from th much work to be done, the infrastructure. he floated this idea of a trillion dollar plan, private/public partnership. it's hard to figure it out because he followed the initial plan where it would be based on private investment and then he said private investments in private/public partnerships don't work. he said he would consider a gas tax and backed off on that gas tax increase. it's hard to see. one thing that's clear is after the tax reform bill, if you want to call it reform, created an initial $1.5 trillion in the deficit, you can't spend federal dollars. without spending federal dollars, let's be clear about it, any infrastructure bill passed is a joke. it will do nothing to repair the woeful state of the infrastructure. >> in particular for the d.r.e.a.m.ers, i'll quote, the democrats have been told and fully understand there can be no daca without the desperately needed wall at the southern border and an end to the horrible chain migr
