robert: i disagree in terms of where the value is on the curve. that is tougher. the value on the market is somewhere below 2.75% on the 10-year. jonathan: will you be buying through the week? obert: the main thing in terms of positioning on the treasury curve -- if you look at the bonds, it hasn't hit to new yield highs this year. the performance back on the curve has been solid. you have growth, a strong stock market, therefore you have a fed that is likely to keep moving. arilyn, why is it that you see the value on the front end of the curve? marilyn: there is a want of uncertainty out there. we are not being paid for the downside.isk on the it is not only in terms of treasuries but also other assets. moment what you are getting is much better versus taking that duration risk further down. jonathan: this massive short position is built up at the front end. does any of that resonate with you? robert: the spread product is attractive. the value on the back end of the curve is very difficult to judge. context, you have an 80 year basis point, 30 year jgb. we're at

i want to bring in robert reich, a former labor secretary, and cnn political commentators maria cardoardona. good to have you on this evening. i want to get to your reactions to the breaking news first and then we'll talk about immigration, robert. what do you think? >> well, i think that the entire russian imbroglio is something that donald trump has tried to deflect attention from all along. in fact, donald trump is a master of deflecting attention, creating enemies and scapegoats and the other. the other right from the beginning of his campaign. mexicans rapists and murders, muslim terrorists. this is donald trump's metier. this is how he does it. deflecting attention from the russian investigation is what exactly what he is trying to do. and the dreamers and the wall, i mean nobody thinks this wall is really going to keep out anybody or keep drugs outside the united states. that's silly. $25 billion, we could eradicate homelessness in the united states for $25 billion. >> hold that thought, robert. >> it's absurd. >> i want to get everybody's thoughts on the breaking news and then

i guarantee it will be a better outcome than this one. robert: all right. ming up at 5:00, erin hawksworth was in the locker room and she has more on the clean-up so, guys that was not sad at all. nancy: i want to give him a hug. robert: he needs one. jonathan: trash bags? give them duffel bags, something. robert: no travel bags. jonathan: people would say you have trash bags to empty your locker after a horrible season. i don't want to be the one to say that. robert: that is why you are here, jonathan. jonathan: stating the obvious. nancy: thank you. take a look here. 1 million people are part of the new york celebration in times square. then came the part that is not quite as fun. that included estimated 3,000 pounds of confetti that rained down on to the street fo of the trash. new york sanitation department expects the clean-up more than 50 tons of trash. jonathan: mariah carey sounded good. got two songs in this year. healthy start to the new year for muriel bowser who hosted a 5k run and a walk at anacostia park. the goal is to encourage people to get

fitzgerald: i think that you do, your honor, but the curtilage -- it's-- chief justice roberts: no, i know the curtilage-- mr. fitzgerald: i guess we can't really set that aside, but -- chief justice roberts: yes, but maybe -- and maybe this is the same question justice breyer was asking, but let's say the motorcycle was on the -- covered with a tarp on the side -- not the sidewalk, the little path to go to the door, in other words, a place where he did have a license to go, right? he said i'm just going to go knock and talk. and it's right there. would he have mr. fitzgerald: no. chief justice roberts: would he -- he couldn't seize that, even with probable cause? mr. fitzgerald: no, that -- that is outside the implied license of his ability to go and knock and talk at the door of that residence, your honor. so he can't -- he can't stop to perform additional searches or seizures along the way. chief justice roberts: it's not an additional search. in other words, you have a license to go to the door and knock, but you can't look at anything in the way. you -- you sort of have to block

robert: does that make the fight, the dreamers a little bit more easier? >> i think it does, the one thing that bonnon was effective was channeling this right-wing anti-immigrant members of the house. and it was very difficult for republicans running in prime area races to compete against them. bannon had a voice. i talked to jeff sessions who said, i do a lot of right-wing radio and all of these hosts read breitbart news. so the fact that bannon is weakend and talk that he might beous ted. there is news for republicans hoping to come to a resolution on daca. >> and the temperature is going down on capitol hill was just the success of passing the tax bill. a lot of the anger at the establishment was, this frustration that they had been so incompetent in not passing an obamacare repeal. the president was blaming them. now they passed something and put one foot in front of the other. and we hate washington so much, it's still there. the base is not like iowa -- >> the donors are happy. they were threatening to a bandon ship. put some wind in their sails. >> the p

do you believe robert -- >> i only repeat for the purposes of making sure you understand. >> do you thinkert mueller will be fair to you? this larger investigation? zbloo we're going to find ouct.t because here's what we'll say. no collusion. there's no collusion. now they're saying oh, well, did he fight back? did you fight back? said -- fight back. fight back. oh, it's obstruction. so here's the thing. i hope so. >> how do you define collusion? mag asked this earlier. >> you're going to define it for me. but i can tell you, there's tho collusion. i couldn't have cared less about russians having to do with my campaign. the fact is, you people won't say this, but i'll say it. i was a much better candidate. you say she was a bad candidate. you never say i was a good candidate. i was one of the greatest candidates. nobody else would have beaten the clinton machine, but u i was a great candidate. some day you're going the say that. good-bye, everybody. >> another exchange he had. rebecca, what's your analysis of what we just heard from the president on a whole host of issues. >> that stateme

i think that's part of the tension we're seeing play out. robert: what do you make of the tension with general kelly the white house chief of staff? he had some tension with the president this week about comments in an interview, kind of walking back the wall pledge for the president. the president was unhappy with that according to various reports. they still seem to be working together. >> i think there is a working relationship there. and general kelly, you know, in a sense got into a corner in that private meeting up on the hill and said some things that the president was unhappy with. we know the president doesn't like to be talked about in a negative way behind his back. but, nonetheless, i think he recognizes what kelly has been able to do at the white house, which is to certainly calm things down and he has confidence in him on this immigration issue. remember, he came from homeland security and the president had great confidence in the work he was doing there before he brought him over to the white house. dan: kelsey, the military is at th

i am going to bring in two qualified experts here. roberta former whitewater prosecutor, and nick confessore from "the new york times" here to cover a number of stories. i know you're busy. i want to take a step back. well did some lawyering of these issues. i wonder if you could do a broader reporting of the issues as someone who has followed many aspects of this, including the russian propaganda campaigns released in the memo. what do you think we learned that n that unusual briefing out of the white house? >> what we learned is an attempted reconstruction for the consumption on the right. and the alternative narrative is the dnc funded this thing and sent some garble to russia and got some garbled stuff. and that went to the courts and that went to the fbi and that proves the russia investigation. that's what you see being eaten up on fox and on twitter. and they're hoping maybe this one narrow aspect of the russia application which is the fisa application for carter page will look so bad that it will unpack. it's unlikely that he is so i

robert. what do you think? >> well, ithink that the entire russian kind of situation has been donald trump has tried to deflect attention from all along. in fact donald trump is a master of deflecting attention. creating enemies and scapegoats and the other right from the beginning of the campaign, mexicans rapists and murders, muslim terrorists. this is the how donald trump does it. deflecting attention from the russian investigation is what exactly what he is trying to do. and the d.r.e.a.m.ers and the wall -- i mean nobody thinks this wall is really going to keep out anybody or keep drugs outside the united states. that's silly. $25 billion, we could eradicate homelessness in the united states for $$25well. >> absurd. >> i want to get everybody's thoughts on the there bracing news maria what do you think. >> it indicates yet again that there is clearly something that donald trump wants us not to see that he clearly has something to hide. this has been the case again and again and again. if he truly was innocent, if the

robert mueller? >> no. you know, iaw a couple people talking about that this morning, and the answer to that is no. >> no, i'm not. >> we have no intentions of firing bob mueller. we're continuing to work closely and cooperate with him. >> is the president going to continue to cooperate or is he setting the stage for firing bob muler? >> -- mueller? >> no, there's no conversation about that whatsoever in the white house. >> that highlight reel goes to why the president's legal team and why people inside the white house are so skittish about the idea of the president sitting down and saying what he knows under oath to the special counsel's office. it's one thing for the president to come out in front of the cameras here in davos and call the story fake news. it's quite another to do that if he special counsel's office. he could open himself up to charges of perjury if he gives false statements to the special counsel's office. that's perhaps one of the biggest reasons why his legal team is so worried about him going thro

i shouldn't! [laughter] about robert mueller, i would guess that i think it is a bigger deal than you do greg. however, again, he did not actually do it! and any good therapist will tell you that the way to happiness is you are supposed to live in the present. and i think we should all try to live in the present. i think it will be really bad did actually fire him. just probably is why he did not actually do it! [laughter] [applause] do you know what is funny though? your advice about living in the present is the only way that like, i was so critical of trump. but when he was elected, i choose to live in the present. i had to stop being like, this guy is crazy or is revolting. as ed lived by his actions and not by his words. and live in the present. and actually he is turning out really great! not just for him, but for me. [applause] i feel, tyrus, i feel less crazy now that i live in the present. >> as a badge wearing procrastinator, i cannot be more happy with the media saying, if you say you're going to do something then accounts the same as doing something. but i don't change a lightbulb,

turned the tables a little and suggested maybe it was he, paul, who was jealous of roberto. >> i didn't hate robertlike him? >> i didn't like the fact that he would cop an attitude with me. just over something stupid, you know, and little. >> reporter: detective salm pressed paul about his past. >> you've got several incidents here -- >> i have a criminal record. >> you've been involved in some bad stuff. okay? you cut phone wires. >> i tried to help you guys out through this whole thing. you're going to start to cop an attitude -- >> i'm not copping attitude with you but i'm having trouble with some of the stuff you're saying. >> i know my word -- i was a felon, a drug addict. everybody knows about it. i put up with a lot of [ bleep ] --. >> so this must have put a whole different complexion on paul. >> it did. >> reporter: having thought for sometime maybe peter was your guy. what was that like? >> it's possible we may have somebody else to look at. >> reporter: and indeed they did. attached gps trackers to both peter and paul's vehicles, which produced precisely nothing. more weeks slipped by. e

robert. i definitely say put together your bird before you get there because twenty six actually i had this huge cardboard it was just blank and i mailed it out to a science fair yeah and then when i got there i started taping everything on because i wasn't really done my project. this is good advice for life probably. i want to get wealthy that advise this is from jack or you've heard from a lot throughout this show but you have really great tweets so jack says read widely think deeply work hard listen to your mentor believe in your idea learn to present your ideas i couldn't even get my name out of my mouth at the start and then you have a chance to go to the fair. thank you so much to christina and darrin and kashmir and to robbie as well here is going to hire just like talking to you for a shoot it at the sundance institute go online look at the science fair and you will find out all about his amazing documentary thank you very much we'll see you on line hash tag a string. the word. the a.

i was on my way to university robert i had a deadline for handing in some work fifteen minutes ago but if you met my professor and i think she'll forgive me for. standing in my local train station when i saw a huge branch falling off a tree so i knew or didn't. and i have listed just as it missed. and i blow dried my hair that was a waste of time. a long wait for many but on the dutch coast these hearty souls that embrace the wild weather. elsewhere less fun more frustration. and the hard work is only just beginning for those involved in the cleanup it's set to be a mammoth task. as we just heard or here in germany all long distance train services were cancelled and that meant an unexpected night away from home for many travelers of berlin central station they helped bahnhof late on a sleeper train with a difference that wasn't going anywhere instead the carriages doubled up as a temporary hotel for passengers stranded in the capital. andy. is at central station she joins us for more charlotte what's the situation there like this morning. good morning sumi yes it's a very long and a ve

. >> robert, i wanted to start with you. you came here when you were just 4 years old, brought here illegally. and you're now 23. you've been in this country for quite a while. >> right. >> and you're a daca recipient. how are you feeling about all the latest developments? >> well, i was pleasantly surprised by the news of the federal judge. i think a lot of the times as d.r.e.a.m.ers, we feel that the law in the place we call home is not on our side, and this was one instance where there's an advocate at least trying to put the law on our side. and i do think it has the potential of helping some of us, depending on how it plays out, but there's also a lot of concern and a lot of confusion amongst daca recipients. so we're really just waiting to see how a lot of this plays out. >> given that there is still so much confusion, what are you doing about your status for now? >> for now, i mean, as daca recipients, we're going to school. we have work to do. we're trying to just live our regular lives but keeping in mind that loomi

robert: i would say two things. e, i have never seen a global investor come out in advance, by the way, we are thinking of doing this. and also saying that before they actually do it. if you look at treasury data on holdings in china, and that could include the official sector and nonofficial sector, they peaked in august. they rose 150 billion dollars from january to august. they were big buyers of treasury 2017.asset allocation in they started to flatten out and go down. if there is a shift, it has already happened. you can also look at the federal reserve published custody holdings of marketable securities and treasuries on behalf of foreign official institutions. that peaked in early december. it was down $43 billion in the following four weeks. been selling u.s. securities during the month of september, and they have been taken out of the company holdings of the fed, and china looks like they peaked out in treasury holdings. is it an issue? i think it is an historic is you rather than perspective as we go forwar

i want to ask you about that, because there are some republicans out there saying that robert muellerhouldn't be doing this job. is president trump prepared to let the special counsel pursue his investigation? >> well, i think he's considering perhaps terminating the special counsel. i think he's weighing that option. i think it's pretty clear by what one of his lawyers said on television recently. i think it would be a very significant mistake, even though i don't -- >> interesting now to hear. maggie, it's interesting to hear chris ruddy who clearly talks with the president with some regularity saying that. >> caller: it's streakiiking an was thinking about this. there is less of a concern that i have heard and colleagues earlier, less of a concern that i have heard about the idea that the president will fire mueller, although obviously, i think that lives on as a concern even if it's an unspoken one, that there's been an effort by ty cobb to sort of simmer down the attention on mueller with the president and be less aggressive and say we have nothing to hide, be transparent, but pa

in response to last month's i-team report that shows robert and other drivers who drowned in the area, caltrans installed reflective traffic delineators last week. >> i appreciate their efforts and they got on it, they were out there right away. >> reporter: it is a step sticking the safety markers in the ground, but she wants a more robust and permanent solution. >> they need to put metal guard rails up. that's what i would like for caltrans to do. i feel like that is the only thing that's going to stop a car from going in that water. >> our sympathies go to the victim and her family. >> reporter: caltrans said it would take time to evaluate what more should be done to make roads around the estuary safer. >> well, guard rails are one possible option. there are several other things. >> reporter: oakland city council president larry reed tells me they're waiting for police reports on crashes to make a final decision. >> i'm sure we'll get guard rails along that corridor and make sure we minimize the loss of any future life along the stretch. >> reporter: the guard rails can't come soon

does this book leave a trail for robert mueller? >> i think it does. i mean, i think it certainly gives meat i would assume to things he was looking at, which is to say let's look into that more clearly, and may throw some new bread crumbs out there for them to follow. look, one thing we know for sure is that mueller's going to run this investigation to ground. he's not -- >> for sure. >> he's not going to leave anything untouched. i think this book adds a lot more to what he should be looking at. >> my number one read yesterday was tim o'brien's piece where you wrote, steve bannon says you realize where this investigation is going. this is all about money laundering. mueller chose senior prosecutor wiseman first and he's a money laundering guy. their path to trump goes right through pana for the, don sqr and jared kushner. it's plain as the hair on your face. speak to that. >> steve bannon is a street fighter. he's very -- >> so's trump. >> right. that's one of the reason they're tied at the hip. >> steve's actually the fighter. i think trump is more

i think when all the information comes out, that robert mueller has and that the committees have heardthink even republicans will have their eyes opened and see that russia was involved in our election and that's the reason that donald trump is president. as john lewis said before the inauguration last year when he didn't go, donald trump is not a legitimate president. there's nobody more saintly in our society, than john lewis, he's a man of rectitude and he sees the truth when other people don't. >> that was quite an extraordinary move when he boycotted that inauguration. >> and i joined him, so did john yarmouth. >> to the white house's immigration proposal. that would give two million daca recipients a path to citizenship. in exchange for a fair amount. which those people like you and congress may not agree with. to include $25 billion to support for the wall. how much are you willing to give up, in order to protect daca and find a path for the d.r.e.a.m.eres? >> we might have to give up something. i think that's too much. today is remembrance of the holocaust day. and when you thi

robert. the donald trump i would love to a, it's conditional. b, he says subject to my attorney and c we now have a statement from ty cobb saying he's ready meet with him and he'll be guided by the advice of his personal counsel. what do you make from that statement tonight? >> a wednesday curveball. the president's lawyers have been thinking for weeks if not months how they're going to handle the invitation from the mueller team. will they respond they'd like to do win answers? will he actually appear and have an informal interview, would it be under oath? all of thighs are things that were supposed to to be negotiated. now the president on record to reporters today says he's willing to talk and willing to talk soon. >> any sense this was preplanned? this seemed impromptu. >> according to people inside of the white house, they were taken aback the president decided to walk down to the white house. you never know with trump. people inside of the west wing were taken aback he did this today. >> carol, the president was asked about obstruction. it

robert? >> i guess this is for both of you all, corey and dave. it's been said that trumpism is bigger than trump, and i wonder what you think about that. you know, this president will be up for re-election in 2020, and you see what is happening to him in the approval ratings and those sorts of things, remains to be seen what happens between now and then. but my question is, is after he's gone whether he runs again and serves out a second term or not, does, does what -- his message, does it go beyond, go beyond him? >> yeah. >> is it bigger than he is? >> i'm going to go quickly, and then maybe you can. donald trump was elected as a change agent. and i think that's going to continue to be that movement, the trump movement, is that washington, d.c. has been broken for a long time. and it doesn't work for the american people, and i think we can all see that. no matter what age you are, you can be just as frustrated as anybody else that washington, d.c. is not working for us. and donald trump told the american people during the campaign that i am a ch
