steve scalise is the house republican whip. he had a call with his team yesterday and said look him nancy pelosi's other option is to bringhi forward this house bill, a provision republicans rejected. for example, any business that would receive the small business loan would have had to pay $15 minimum wage. there were things in there to make the airlines change their fuel in order to reduce carbon emissions. these are priorities for the left but steve scalise aside the senate bipartisan bill is at best option canan otherwise will drag this out and have pelosi's bring back members to vote on a much more liberal bill. he's encouraging that. pelosi is facing some questions and resistance. she held her own caucus call earlier in the day around 2 p.m. where members were questioning whether her and her liberal party would be in this pic she's facing skepticism of her own left flank but we'll see if she can pull it together. it's been very hard to achieve, louis gohmert was able to delay a procedure on the earlier bill. to remind you

we have steve scalise and other members of congress already being tested, some prove to have the coronavirus. you'll have issues with getting back together. >> you're in a pandemic, and certainly there has to be a work-around when the very act of bringing 435 people together in a single room say public health risk, not only for the people in that room but to all the communities that they're going to spread out to across the united states when they go back home to their districts to try to deal with that. so, yeah, they have to figure out a work-around. they've got to figure out a way to be able to vote remotely because there's legislation that's going to be coming at them fast over the next week, over the next two weeks and as

congressman steve scalise you have been through a lot. you have seen what happens in this town in times of crisis. sometimes the country comes together. but sometimes politics cuts to the quick. the president urged congress to pass this payroll tax relief. i have in my hands what nancy pelosi and the crew came up with. there is a lot in here expanding the federal government beyond the immediate concern. >> you have two different world's tonight. donald trump was presidential and showing leadership and calming the american public. he's working with drug companies to find a vaccine and talking about steps to bring ideas to congress. on the other side you have nancy pelosi, never let a crisis go to waste. i started seeing some things. it's unlimited money from the federal government. free everything. getting rid of the work requirements. welfare to work requirements that helped millions of memo get into the middle-class. they want to get rid of that. things that have nothing to do with the coronavirus taking advantage of a crisis. >> laura:

and house minority whip steve scalise. i start with you, reince priebus. first when you talk to your friends in the great state of wisconsin, will you please tell them on behalf of this audience that the dairy farming they do, the other farming they do -- dairy farmers never get a day off. it's impossible. it's more than taking a seed and digging a hole and putting the seed in the hole and covering it with dirt and putting water. that it takes real science, agricultural ingenuity, technology advancements to feed the whole world and the united states. will you please say thank you for me for what they do and the hard work they put in every day? >> absolutely, sean. i expect my first job was on a farm next door to the house in pleasant prairie, wisconsin. and it's hard work. but it's technical work. and it's something to be celebrated. but look, people talk about joe biden and the fight happening in the democratic party. remember why michael bloomberg got in to the race. he got in the race because joe biden collapsed. and why did he collapse? he collapsed be

so much more on the impact of that with steve scalise.n the meantime, one of the things we're getting on this, the notion that what started here, is not going to end that. that they're expanding beyond what the reserve has done and what the government has proposed. we talked about it with lots of businesses and lots of americans. . >> from the white house we're awaiting a briefing. we're awaiting a coronavirus briefing task force, vice-president pence. we're here and i'm leland vittert. we're in different offices. >> practicing the distance. we're going to turn to mark meredith standing by at the white house.

steve scalise is proof of that -- shot at. and yet the left wants to encourage hate, wants to encourage mobs, wants to encourage violence? is this the goal? to empower the antifa to harass these justices just like they did to a woman running for congress? remember that one? i've played the tape a bunch. they surrounded her car. they screamed at her. they threatened her because they didn't like her stance on an issue. you see, by issuing threats like you did, chuck schumer, you are encouraging that kind of violence. and what kind of america does that make? chuck schumer is proving himself to be no better than the thugs he's out there trying to encourage. so apology? senator schumer, you know, if we can call it that, apology not accepted. that's tonight's intel. we've got a lot coming up tonight. i'm not done with senator schumer, not yet. the liberal media today not really knowing how to deal with one of their buddies getting in trouble. so when in doubt, pivot to blaming president trump. >> silent when president trump attacks

>> not at all, i am thinking of steve scalise who almost lost his life.s republican members of the house and senate who would have lost theirs if not for the great work of the capitol police. i remember the end of june of 2018, maxine waters was speaking to her supporters with a video that went viral and she was using a lot of rhetoric about confronting trump administration officials to confront them in public places and restaurants and movie theaters, guess what? the first week of july 2018, 1 of my campaign volunteers a strong supporter of donald trump was targeted by somebody using the same exact rhetoric and almost killed this campaign volunteer of mine with his car. i can think of stories from 17, 18 fast forward to today, we are not sending the right message, not only the leaders who share this hyperbolic rhetoric but all the followers who then look at it as a call to arms and obviously the nt for thugs. >> i mentioned jackson who was subjected to this sort of thing for her pro-life stance, have you been subjected to this? >> we have had a number of

contracted coronavirus and we have several other members who are quarantined including minority whip steve scalise this is what steny hoyer said, quote, the house will adjust our voting procedures in order to follow the cdc's recommendations. we'll discuss all options. they're talking about bringing members into the house chamber in groups of 10 or 15. none of that will probably happen until next week, liz. liz: chad, great to see you. the market ended up 188 points. oil popped higher. we're on track for probably the worst week since 2008. the worst month since 1987. that is where we're at. all indices below of 200-day moving averages. the dow is swinging back and forth about 1200 points. up 188. get to it ohio governor, michael dewine. thanks for joining us. >> great to see you. >> before we get what is going on, when will ohio hold its democratic primary? >> it is democrat and republican primary. it is not just presidential. it is local. that is set for the beginning of june. unless the legislature comes in and changes that. what is important people will have the opportunity to vote by absentee

so, there are four members saying that they're going to do self-quarantining including steve scalise who is number two republican in the house of representatives. and there's probably more being added to that list as we speak because the attending physician in the house sent a note to all colleagues, all members, saying that they are mapping out where these members were, they are finding out who they were close to and making the calls. obviously fellow members and also staff members. and the other thing they're doing is working with the architect of the capitol to scrub down the areas of the capitol where these members were. but they're insisting people who were on the house floor with them have low risk. >> talk to us about what this means, dana, practically on capitol hill. what, if any, steps are being taken to allow members to vote on legislation remotely? what's going on? what are they doing? >> well, so far the answer is none because nancy pelosi, the house speaker, has made very, very clear that she doesn't even want to entertain the notion of virtual voting. but eric swalwell

here with reaction, republican congressman steve scalise, doug collins of georgia. i look at this, i see all of our hospitals waiting over a week, i see workers through no fault of their own needing money, and small businesses, big businesses writing for the national endowment for the arts and humanities in the kennedy center. i don't get it. you've got to help me out here. maybe you understand this. >> there's not a lot to understand there but it shows the misplaced priorities of speaker pelosi and her radical allies. while everybody else was working together, republican and democrat with president trump who was solely focused on fighting for jobs for american families who are facing being laid off i'm a maybe those small businesses shutting down for good, president trump wanted to stay that often help get relief to those families and nancy pelosi literally held the bill up for days to get her pet projects including the money for the kennedy center, interesting she gives the choice of words fiddlers because it was the violin players, all the musicians at the kenned

that house speaker nancy pelosi would probably want to have a conference call with her caucus, steve scaliserepublican whip, he indicates there was whiterepublican support for thit how they would actually vote in house might not be till thursday or maybe friday, they don't want to have all 430 members come back into the house chamber, that's a health issue here, so what that talked about as may be doing a voice vote, and this is where everybody -- for it says i come opposed says no and the loudest side wins. we might see a $2 trillion package past on a voice vote in the house of representatives. laura. >> laura: chad, that is so -- there is so much to say about that. you and i could just do an hour-long show just on that. >> let's do it. alex when all the procedure. [laughs] >> laura: really, unpacking every little goody that's in this legislation, including things that have nothing to do with covid-19. unbelievable, great reporting as always, thanks so much. >> thank you. >> laura: i've been telling you all about the potential benefits in treating covid-19 patients with new drugs entering h

some of my sources said a lot of members saw steve scalise on fox news talking about the problems withpackage and got nervous. the market spooked this morning and kevin mccarthy went out in public around 11:00 and said we're trying to get this done n and that was a significant signal to me. nancy pelosi said the same thing. her office has been updating these phone calls have been going back and forth. every one up here is invested in sending the signal that all is on track. that said, there's still some big question marks. mitch mcconnell left the building before 4:00 p.m. today sending his members home if r the weekend which shows it's extremely unlikely they will get anything done before the weekend. this is going to gettic kiked into next week. just looking at friday is nerve wracking. i have to say it feels a lot like we're in unchartered territory here. i've been doing this a long time. you and i had a lot of conversations in the day about major pieces of legislation. i'm usually able to say in past it's worked this way. >> none of that. >> reporter: all bets are off in this. i've

have come into contact with them are now in quarantine themselves, including the republican whip steve scalise on the house side and one just announced on the democratic side, kendra horn. the question is what will law ma lawmakers do when the house is to return last week and will the voting ultimately occur? >> well, of course, we wish them a quick recovery. thank you, manu, on all those fronts. we appreciate it. joining me now is dr. saj dr. saja hathi, resident physician at massachusetts general hospital. thank you for being with us. >> poppy, it is good to be here. >> so, for anyone who is watching earlier this week, they heard your mentor dr. celine gounder talk about what you had been experiencing and telling her. that's why we wanted to have you on. you're on the front lines. so thank you for being there, thank you for what you and all the doctors and nurses and hospital staff are doing. what are you seeing, because we hear all the anecdotes, supplies are low, people are making their own masks, the cdc guidelines have lessened so they say if you don't have a mask, put a bandanna around

republican house minority whip steve scalise said he would self-quarantine for the next two weeks after close contact with diaz-balart. a pew research center poll found more than 3-in-4 republicans believe the media has exaggerated the threat of the virus, following the lead of president trump who has repeatedly said the virus would go away while accusing democrats of making the coronavirus their new hoax. dr. . deborah birx of the e whie house coronavirus task force said wednesday millennials may be at a higher risk of getting seriously ill or dying from coronavirus than previously thought. despite that, florida republican governor ron desantis rejected calls wednesday to close beaches, and instead ordered beachgoers to limit themselves to parties of 10 o or fewer.r. the pandemic is increasingly threatening prisoners andd migran h held behind bars in immigration jails. an officer at new york's infamous rikers island jail tested positive for covid-19. prisisoners at t the yakima couy department o of corrections s in washington state have been quarantined after developing respiratory pro

democratic leaders nancy pelosi and steny hoyer as well as kevin mccarthy and steve scalise have been holding a series of conference calls with their respective members trying to really sell them on this package, showing them, walking them through this package step by step to say, look, there's a lot of good stuff. we didn't get everything that we wanted. progressive certainly wanted more money for snap and food stamps as well as more direct payments going to workers. $1500 rather than the $1200 that is in this senate deal. nangs nancy pelosi has argued to the progressives in her caucus that there will be future opportunities, probably a phase four and a phase five in the coming months because the senate is so great and that democrats will be able to fight for some of these additional priorities in these future stages. so certainly not everyone is happy. certainly not governor cuomo. but, again, there will be likely more phases of this stimulus when all is said and done. >>. >> let's talk about what the sticking points were. if everybody came out of this with a claim in this, what doe

range of subjects, including the time in 2017 when a man with a gun shot louisiana congressman steve scalise. scalise was at the rally with trump. >> a very brave man. he took a bullet. he got shot. and he got up, he was going to die that night. i tell this story all the time. his wife, she was crying so much, when he finally did awake. i said one thing i learned, your wife loves you. why do you say that? because she was devastated. i know many wives who don't get too upset. >> jimmy: yeah, well, happy valentine's day. trump is mixing it up with michael bloomberg now, who, bloomberg was not on the ballot in iowa or new hampshire. instead, he has like 15 commercials running on every show on every television channel. that appears to be working. according to a new national poll, bloomberg is in third place behind bernie and biden. but now he has a problem. a tape has emerged of a tape of him touting the stopndrisk policy. this is a thing that targeted young black men. this morning, trump tweeted, wow, bloomberg is a total racist, which is amazing, because a lot of people think the president mig

once in a while, maybe it's once every couple of years everyone has to get together, like when steve scalise almost assassinated and you had paul ryan and nancy posey together arm in arm at the congressional softball game and they were doing their best to unify the houses of congress. can't we have something similar right now? if not why not? >> we cannot because it is an election year end quite frankly the media, the way they've hyped this is a bit irresponsible. and there is a sense that it is about donald trump, i think. the other problem with this too is something that's been going on for a long, long time is eight loss of faith and institutions buried whether it is congress, health institutions, supreme court, you name it. americans have lost faith that our government, the institutions that surround us and supposed to support us, they are not doing their jobs anymore. so that contributes to the fact, aside from the dysfunction of washington which is clearly been going on for some time. >> . kennedy: that's a good point, only had to senate minority leader calling out members of the supre

we have steve scalise and other members of congress already being tested, some prove to have the coronavirus. you'll have issues with getting back together. >> you're in a pandemic, and certainly there has to be a work-around when the very act of bringing 435 people together in a single room say public health risk, not only for the people in that room but to all the communities that they're going to spread out to across the united states when they go back home to their districts to try to deal with that. so, yeah, they have to figure out a work-around. they've got to figure out a way to be able to vote remotely because there's legislation that's going to be coming at them fast over the next week, over the next two weeks and as the president said during the press conference, they may have to come back to have another stimulus package if the markets continue to collapse. and this is a white house that also believes, and you heard the president suggest it, but the white house believes that we're going to know much more about this crisis and the depths of this crisis by the end of next week. the

we are told that republicans in the house, notably steve scalise, the way from louisiana, indicates that seems to be various broad support so far they don't want to bring anybody back because of health concerns. there are currently 430 members of the house, so they might try to work out an agreement where they approve this by voice vote. a voice vote is where everybody shouts yea and those opposed, nay. but they are not there yet, kevin. >> kevin: let me follow-up very quickly on that, i know that has been contention for some, something simply feel that's not the way to handle something like this in particular, chad, when we're talking about $2 trillion on the board, do you think it will come to that in your opinion? >> it may very well be the case. consider the size of this bill, $2 trillion in change. each of the federal government of total spent about $4.3 trillion, about 1.3 trillion our annual appropriations, the rest is what we call entitlement spending, medicare, medicaid and social security, but to approve something by voice vote, they do that all the time in both the house and t
