thank you for joining us, congressman congressman. >> good morning. >> you heard sarah huckaby sanders defending the white house and putting the blame on the democrats saying that sit i the democrats who are refusing to bring them to the table. why not bring everyone back toing washington and have some talks about the options floated out there? >> certainly. we should have people in washington negotiating and discussing the path forward to open the government. start with this, the default setting is at the federal government should be open. you don't hold federal government employees, federal contractors and quite frankly the american public hostage, because of a disagreement on the border security. last week, the democrats and the republicans came together in a bipartisan way, and they sent a continued resolution to the white house with an agreed upon $1.3 billion and now the president is asking congress to negotiate against the american people and against themselves. >> so, i am sure that you saw this earlier, the incoming acting white house chief of staff nick mulvaney also made int
