that's why stephen miller put his hands on the wheel and drove the truck. >> melissa: it was the judgehat struck down the executive order. if anyone that's negotiated a deal knows if you want to get it done, put an exploding deadline on it. all the parties come together and work together. the president issued that executive order in order to then have daca recipients back, but the moment the judge removed that, you saw everyone move away from the table because politicians don't do anything unless their feet are held in the fire. >> kennedy: you are absolutely right. unless there's a gun to their head, they cannot act. there are so many unintended consequences. >> dagen: let's be clear, trump will take the blame. this is on his shoulders because he got rid of the daca protection. >> jessica: to the deadline point, there's an enormous deadline coming up. the february elections. they both had to have deliverables. democrats and republicans. i'm not thrilled with what is going on. >> lawrence: he is demonstrating he's willing to give 1.8 million people citizenship and the right to vote. >>

stephen miller, john kelly, they don't have a deal. >> yes, they don't want a deal.republicans don't want a deal. i thought this all along. we were talking about hostages and everything else like that before. you have an administration that has made it abundantly clear they want to keep certain people out of this country. and once you make it clear that, like, hey, i'm not going to buy this house, i'm not going to work with you one way or another, it's difficult. what's fascinating is there are enough republicans and democrats in the house and senate that they could pass a bill that is veto proof but they don't seem to have the backbone to do that because mitch mcconnell and paul ryan are afraid of offending the president. >> republicans have made a very -- an argument that helped, that worked. when chip was on the table, they were able to say that democrats care more about illegal immigrants than they do about sick children. >> exactly. >> that argument worked. but i want to put a face on where this is now. the chicago tribune put out a face. an army veteran, a gree

unfortunately, like stephen miller in the white house has -- but we have a critical patient in our hands. even that, democrats, can they what that caller suggested and refuse any offer from the white house? are they not in a position where if they have to demand a vote on this for the daca population, they need to compromise? perhaps the wall is the compromise. host: here is the thing. immigrants have been willing to compromise, right? sometimes, some people would say they have been willing to compromise too much. the point is, they have been at the table. they have worked on bipartisan agreements that they have said -- some of this stuff, we don't agree with, but we are willing to do this. the problem is that every time they reach that time and come together, not with a democratic proposal, but with a bipartisan proposal, with republican support, the president or his team at the white house move the goalposts. so what happens? imagine if you are playing a game and people keep moving the goalposts, keep changing the rules on you. how can you get there? i think it is kind of duplicitous t

residency and then there's white house adviser stephen miller one of the architects of the tough line against immigration his great great grandfather was pulled into the u.s. by a known blood relative from bella ruse assimilation was hard for the family members great grandmother still didn't speak english for years after her arrival and that's exactly the sort of migrant miller is seeking to prevent from arriving on u.s. rules so we're proposing to limit family based migration to spouses and minor children what will the system look at it will look at does the applicant speak english can they support themselves and their families financially do they have a skill that will add to the u.s. economy at washington's cato institute they estimate that the effect of the administration's immigration framework will lead to the largest cut in legal immigration since the one nine hundred twenty s. a forty four percent cut annually excluding nearly twenty two million people over the next fifty years in the twenty's politicians were overt about their racism but now according to david baer there are

. >> bill: stephen miller getting on board as well. i want to emphasize yet again, the new pattern for this white house. that pattern is falling into a much more traditional west wing and how it operates. if you think about the president leaving on marine one, so often he will stop and talk with reporters. that habit is changing, sandra. he did the audio interview with reporters at the white house before he went off the davos a week ago. he chose not to speak today. you just wonder with the fewer tweets over the past four days we had two earlier today. it seems like they are finding a different rhythm than what we've watched for the past 12 months and whether or not it's a permanent change we do not know. i think it is a fundamental difference for this white house and how it wants to communicate its message and be clear on what it wants to get out to the american people and how general kelly is running the schedule in the west wing. >> sandra: who maybe while you were talking maybe you noticed john kelly just a short step behind stephe

i would binge watch stephen miller all day because some of the things that come out of his mouth i sayd he just say that? rewind that, i have to see that again." so to trump it doesn't seem like this is the way he does business but the family has stayed mostly in place. kelly has provided a buffer but notice what's happening now, jared and ivanka where trying to push out kelly because kelly has restricted their access and they believe they are the two who can run the country. >> don mcgahn is under increased scrutiny he got that report from sally yates and permitted flynn to stay on for 18 days after being told that the national security adviser was seriously compromised by the russians. >> sally yates was fired because she was trying to save the president from embarrassment over general flynn. if the white house can't vet someone who, a, was actively involved in lobbying for the turkish government and b was involved in a form kidnapping plot how would they catch rob porter porter? kelly clearly knew this was going to be revealed and this white house is failing in the most fundamental

if you look at what's happened on immigration, stephen miller a hard liner on that issue. trump came into office as this sort of deal maker. no one knew where he was politically, and he was essentially captured by the far right of the republican party. that's their deal with the devil if you will. they can get these things they've wanted carried out, many of them extreme right proposals, by working with this president. you know, will it haunt them? we'll have to see in the midterms elections in november. >> david, asha, julia, thanks so much for sticking around with us. thanks to you as well for joining us tonight. i'm jim sciutto in for don lemon. that's it for us tonight. thanks so much for watching. hope to see you tomorrow. . . . . >>> likely simply that ebb and flow of our stock market. >> the administration trying to ease jitters after a arecord selloff. all of the gains of 2018 are gone. a quarter of the rally gone since the election. global investors are selling too. >>> the president's lawyers are concerned he could incriminate himself. they are trying to sway him

colluded, if trump did all this horrible stuff, if carter page did all this horrible stuff, if stephen millerorrible stuff, melania trump that all this horrible stuff, donald trump jr., if baron trumpeted this horrible stuff, why in the world is the fbi so afraid of finding out how they got it? why is the fbi, the democratic party so worried, concerned about how they got there? i've gone through as much of this as i can absorb. before it all starts to turn into a blue-purple markey hayes. i can't find any good reasons to not disclose this memo. >> sean: that's great. by the way, when i do radio, microphone is here. how does he do it so far away? i guess that's why he's number one. here with reaction, fox news contributor jason chaffetz, judicial watch president john president competent. i think this is what we will get tomorrow. the phony dossier was used to get ad fisa warrant. its russian propaganda. congressman? >> i think we will also start to see the financial trail, who was paying for it, how it was financed, who was moving it along. i'm worried that it's broader than just the fbi. reme

the abrupt departure of david sorenson, who worked under stephen miller, came as the "washington post" was reporting on a story about abuse claims by his ex-wife, jessica corbett. corbett told the post that she described his behavior to the fbi last fall as the bureau was conducting a background check of sorens sorensen. she said that during her marriage to sorensen, he ran a car over her foot, put out a cigarette on her hand, threw her into a wall and grasped her menacingly by her hair. this latest report comes as the west wing raises questions about domestic abuse allegations against a top white house aide. rob porter, a former staff secretary, resigned after two ex-wives accused him of physical and verbal abuse. porter denies the allegations calling them, quote, false, outrageous and part of a coordinated smear campaign. in the oval office, the president seemed to come to the defense of his former top aide. >> we wish him well. he worked very hard. i found out about it recently, and i was surprised by it. but we certainly wish him well. it's an obviously tough time for him. he did

for daca, it was john kelly and stephen miller who were pushing things to the right. it was john kelly who was saying immigrants from salvador, we have to get them out. and i want to go back to sarah huckabee sanders, because we say there's the the jarvanka side of the white house and this side. it doesn't seem like there's teams, it's every man or woman to herself. she went out there and seemed to me to be distancing herself from john kelly. >> absolutely. >> we're simply stating we're giving you the best information that we're going to have. obviously the press team is not going to be as read in as many some other elements at a given moment on a variety of topics. but we relay the best and most accurate information that we have. >> okay. so right there. sarah huckabee sanders was put out -- john kelly signs off on everything sarah huckabee sanders says on that podium, everything she does. and she said right there, we might not be privy to that information. so there you've got john kelly setting her up, go out there and lie to the american people, and that's her name

family based legal migration or the diversity visa lottery that president trump and certainly stephen millerto end. >> this morning, the president responded on twitter, calling the deal without a wall a total waste of time. msnbc's garrett hank joins us from capitol hill. i guess that's where we start. mccain and coons coming together, both of these guys have some tendency to get support from people in the middle, in the rump of both of these parties. >> a la durbin/graham. >> right. but if the white house isn't interested, is it a nonstarter? >> it's not a nonstarter. the point is that it's a starting point. i just got off a conference call with senator coons talking about this bill. they very much -- he and senator mccain see it as two things. an absolute base bill from which they can start, where they could add on some of these additional issues. do people want to talk about family migration? okay, we'll take an amendment on that. do we want to talk about the lottery system? okay, we'll take an amendment on that. coons said he would prefer to see a more complete agreement like a graham/du

chuck schumer supposedly had that handshake with president trump on daca, it's john kelly and stephen miller who had these extreme views. i also learned it was john kelly when talking about those special visas, from people from disaster situations like el salvador, like haiti. it's john kelly's extreme-right views who said, let's not review those visas. >> yep. >> so even within the white house, you said the globalist faction, people are saying, this guy has gone over his skis. >> yep. >> and this is a clear other example. >> so let's walk through what we believe we know. the fact is, we don't have honest timelines, because the white house isn't being honest. but the timelines we have don't seem to mesh with each other. we learned last week, for instance, that white house counsel, don mcgahn, was first alerted to an issue in january 2017 about rob porter. fbi director chris wray testified that investigation was completed in july. chief of staff john kelly reportedly learned about the allegations by november, at the latest, when the fbi provided follow-up information, but he called porter a m

first time the white house chief of staff expressed views that suggest he is very much in the stephen miller camp when it comes to immigration. he will say, i'm sure, that what he said was some say this, and some say that. some say they're too afraid. some say they're too lazy. on one hand/on the other hand. that's what he will say. i think it's disturbing for there to be etven by implicatio the noegtion of the white house chief of staff, most powerful person in the country other than the president, to suggest daca people are simply too lazy, as he put it, to get off their ass which carries an emotional fraying that suggests maybe he's one of those people who thinks they're too lazy and not in the camp of the other one that he described which was the too afraid. >> so, sarah, we worked in a white house, and for a president that, you know, was very unpopular among all democrats and many republicans by the end. but i never, as his spokesperson, seven minutes after the president said something, went in and said something opposite, and there was never anyone on that white house staff who would h

residency and then there's white house adviser stephen miller one of the architects of the tough lineagainst immigration his great great grandfather was pulled into the u.s. by a known blood relative from belo roots assimilation was hard for the family members great grandmother still didn't speak english for years after her arrival and that's exactly the sort of migrant miller is seeking to prevent from arriving on u.s. rules so we're proposing to limit family based migration to spouses and minor children while the system look at it will look at as the applicant speak english can they support themselves and their families financially do they have a skill that will add to the u.s. economy at washington's cato institute estimates of the effect of the administration's immigration framework will lead to the largest cuts in legal immigration since the one nine hundred twenty s. a forty four percent cut annually excluding nearly twenty two million people over the next fifty years in the twenty's politicians were overt about their racism but now according to david baer there are also naked p

had his hands the wheel of a bus, stephen miller pushing an agenda, right-wing restrictionist to reduce legal immigration in the country and unless they get that, then -- then there's a no go on this. again, because they issued a -- made a comment about it yesterday mid-morning, what was the comment? the administration warning that the bipartisan agreement would drastically change our national immigration policy for the worst by weakening border security and undercutting existing immigration law despite the fact there's 25 billion over ten years for the border wall in that particular amendment. >> there was some question of whether enough money was there in year one but in year one you are not going to do much building anyway because you have to fight with people, a lot of lawsuits to actually get the project moving. so it's a little puzzling and kind of a concern that maybe that -- that cotton-perdue in the senate which is reducing legal immigration is to go -- maria: you speak to any manager of a big certainly business and they'll say we need more workers, we need more immig

most americans agree with donald trump and stephen miller's view of immigration whether you want to callether you want to talk about the lottery, whether you want to talk about only wanting highly skilled immigrants in this country. there have been a lot of polls out over the past couple weeks and none of them are good news for democrats. >> i think democrats realize that the shutdown strategy was a mistake, whether it was shutting down in the first place, whether it was folding and not following through. there's been a lot of criticism of it. the fixing things for the daca kids is very broadly popular, but tying it to a shutdown kind of risked, i think, that from a political perspective. that is certainly one part of what's happened here. i think that the other part of what's happening here, though, is that there actually is a little bit of trust that seems to have broken out between chuck schumer and mitch mcconnell and mcconnell is out there saying next week i'm going to open up the floor of the senate. this is something that we never see. we forget this because the government has bee

( laughter ) there are a lot of references -- there are a lot of references-- kind of obliquely to the president of the united states. i don't think his name is ever said. >> his name is said once at the end of the play, not by me. my character refuses to say his name. >> stephen: oh, that's right. ( applause ) ( cheers ). >> stephen: i forgot that. >> but i think at one point i think i punch myself in the he head, to sort of let it out. but, yeah, so it's set-- it's set today. it's about a washington couple, basically, trying work their way up the-- y

intellectual roots of trumpeter sounds like an oxymoron but he was advised by people like stephen bannon and steve miller consider themselves intellectuals and are influenced by a counter enlightenment tradition and you can see some of the themes of trumpism trumpism wet the soul is embodied in a strong leader. these are things that run through trumpism. a strong leader. these are things that run through trumpismm a strong leader. these are things that run through trumpism. it seems to me his politics is driven by emotions, by an appeal to a person's cup in sticks rather than their rational brain. —— instincts. the skill of donald trump is that, unlike many of his political rivals, he found and continues to find a way to connect with a significant part of the american population. indeed and emotional impulses such as tribalism, authoritarianism, besting power in a charismatic leader, reasoning by an act don't rather than by fax and data —— anecdote, the story of the american who is mowed down by an illegal immigrant breaking traffic law, is an appeal to our not so rational side... if trump is an aberrati

look at the republican party like senator lindsey graham speaking out and saying people like stephen millereed to be kept out of the conversation, there are republican senators who are trying to fight against that narrative, but they get drowned out by fox news and by the other narratives. it is a push and pull. i am not sure that a lot of republican callers know there is a disagreement. one last thing, the same kind of disagreement exists with the russian investigation, where a lot of republican senators are on record saying that we were attacked, cyber attacked by russia, an enemy of the country, it is one of the most serious things that has ever happened and it must be investigated, but you have republican saying let's investigate the previous administration. they are not even aware that their own party, the actual senators serving this country for a long time, are not in agreement with them. but fox news is, that is the disconnect. host: some of your comments about this administration, the message on on documented -- on undocumented immigrants getting involved with violent gangs, we wil

unfortunately, like stephen miller in the white house has -- but we have a critical patient in our handsen that, democrats, can they what that caller suggested and refuse any offer from the white house? are they not in a position where if they have to demand a vote on this for the daca population, they need to compromise? perhaps the wall is the compromise. host: here is the thing. immigrants have been willing to compromise, right? sometimes, some people would say they have been willing to compromise too much. the point is, they have been at the table. they have worked on bipartisan agreements that they have said -- some of this stuff, we don't agree with, but we are willing to do this. the problem is that every time they reach that time and come together, not with a democratic proposal, but with a bipartisan proposal, with republican support, the president or his team at the white house move the goalposts. so what happens? imagine if you are playing a game and people keep moving the goalposts, keep changing the rules on you. how can you get there? i think it is kind of duplicitous to sa
