republicans control the house, senate, the white house. we could have brought up a long-term bill long before now. we have placed our suggestions on the table as to what would be on the domestic side of that. resources for opioid epidemic that kills 94 people every day in our country. funding for veterans' infrastructure and services. saving millions of americans' pensions in crisis today. for funding community health centers and lifesaving research at the n.i.h., childcare for hardworking parents, protecting patriotic young dreamers. and as our distinguished whip said earlier, making sure we have the resources for those affected by hurricanes, for fires, and especially our folks in puerto rico and the virgin islands. i'm going to submit some of that for the record. because of the republicans' majority's weakness, we still don't have a long-term spending bill to -- that funds the military and the domestic investments that keep our america strong. we take an oath of office to protect and defend. now we have to fund that. we have not delivere

the president, no, usually when someone worked at the white house is called or works at the white houses called, there is a negotiation ahead of time between the white house and the committee and the white house says on these kinds of matters we're going to invoke executive privilege or we want to hear about the questions. so, i think some of this is being presented as more mysterious or more -- what's the word -- suspicious -- >> nefarious. >> the white house is entitled to claim it. they're not entitled to necessarily -- congress doesn't have to say, okay, we're not going to ask. but the white house has at least a first cut at claiming it. but it does raise the question someone was in touch with someone at the white house, right? and john kelly's comment, we don't talk to the guy any more. >> it certainly affirms what we've been talking about all hour, that everyone is sort of in their own silos. tom, you cover this. let me ask you if you can bring some clarity. the white house not denying they were in contact with steve bannon's lawyer who we all know he's a former colleague of mine

last week the but subtle possum that's placed in the house of commons to all the hero in the house of laws. the final government majority in the house of commons was twenty nine which side is comfortable enough but that might still prove difficult because the indications are that the upper house the on the elected chamber the house of lords is about to cut up rough and breaks it a number of laws are making it clear that they are not bowed by normal conventions and constitutional legislation because they believe the government has no election mandate for hot blacks and furthermore the bracks bill does not have the consent of eye of the scots parliament or the national assembly of wales so could we see a matching unlikely alliance between the elected representatives of the celtic nations of scotland and wales and the peers of the realm to put a spoke in the blanks oh we'll. one pass not impressed by the potential peals revolt as top tory backbencher and veteran util skeptic bill cash. chair of the european scrutiny committee you're the most experienced of the black city and m.p.'s and t

because it's curtilage rather than the house? or is it limited to the mobility that's characterized the automobile exception? >> yes, the automobile exception is just that, it's an exception on very circumscribed terms. >> the problem with that, of course, we've said the curtilage is like the house, but maybe you would. if you have an automobile in the house, which is not -- jay leno's house, he's got dozens of rare cars or the porsche in "ferris bueller." you're saying you don't -- you can just go in because it's mobile and they got it in there somehow, they can get it out? you don't recognize the distinction between the curtilage and the house for the purposes of the vehicles that are mobile? >> the court has laid down a categorical exception. if you were to draw a line, we think the most sensible place to do it would be the bright line of the house because it is used in other fourth amendment jurisprudence. it doesn't need to reach that here. there are arguments that the mobility stays the same and the other justifications for

>> republicans control the house, the senate and the white house. that's a fair point. but you also know it requires a 60-vote threshold in the united states senate. we have 50 republicans present with john mccain's absence. therefore we need 10 democrats. they need to pass it in the house to keep it funded. what happens in the senate? senate democrats appear willing to shut down the government, stop paying our troops, stop paying our military in order to fight for illegal immigrants. >> but you think the freedom caucus on board, do you believe -- >> we believe they'll be able to secure enough republicanotes in the house to get this done. >> wolf, there you hrd mark short. he's keeping track of all these votes in the white house. he believes there are enough votes to get through the house, particularly the house conservatives who have blocked these things before. he thinks they're on board, but he says there is, of course, much more concern in the senate because they must hit the threshold of 60 votes. some democrats are saying they will not vote for this, but some repub

franklin's ownership of the house. so i'd also like to address the idea of revoking the permit and i just want to make a couple comments about that. you know, the house, as mr. franklin mentioned, is demolished inside and there's a risk of water intrusion and it's a fire hazard without sprinklers and we'd like to make the house livable again and make it available for residential use. if the permit is revoked, mr. franklin would have no choice but to reapply for a permit and we'd be back here in six months or nine months or however long that takes to get through so i don't think that revoking the permit would solve any of the issues and it just puts us in a due loop of coming back before you and that's a waste of everybody's time. i'm happy to answer any questions about the specific constraints that the board is facing in conditioning the permit. i'm available to do that or any of the specific conditions that the appellants have requested. we also have our communications team here and they're available to answer any ques

the doubt is for the vote tonight in the house. they are counting heads. let alone the uphill battle counting the heads in the senate to get 60 votes. should tonight spill pass in the house, the house expect to devote sometime after p.m. eastern time. both sides are also working on their strategies for the blame game should the deadline passed without an agreement. where fox team coverage. john roberts at the white house with mixed messages coming from the president but we start off with the chief congressional correspondent mike emanuel on capitol hill with the very latest which changes by the minute. stick a very tense situation. mark meadows of north carolina same republican leaders at this moment don't have the votes to pass with critical government funding extension. aides say there is no change in plans and republican leaders are urging to get it done. address the real deadlines that are here. the real deadlines by continuing the funding for the military, extend the children's health insurance program. instead of our men and women in uniform being tre

because it's curtilage rather than the house? or is it limited to the mobility or is it limited to the mobility that's characterized in the automobile semexception? >> yes, that's just that. >> tan tand the problem we had that was like the house. which if you had the automobile in the house, which is not jay leno's house, where you have dozens of rare cars, or the porsche in farris buhler, are you saying you can go in there because it's mobile? you don't recognize the distinction between the curtilage and house for purposes of the vehicles that are mobile? >> the court has laid down a categorical exception. if you were to draw the line we think it's the house because it's used in other fourth amendment jurist prudence. it doesn't need to reach that here. there are argument that is the mow abl mobility stays the same whether in the house or outside the house. but if you have to draw the line that is the sensible way to do it. >> the fourth amendment says people have right to be secure? their homes, person and effects. so the curtil

and the house burnt to the ground in 1865. and then his father james roosevelt purchased this property. to be their new home. in the hudson valley. fdr parents were james and sarah. and mr. james roosevelt had a wife before sarah. her name was rebecca. and she passed away in 1876. four years later he married sarah. mr. james roosevelt when he married sarah was 52 years old. and she was only 26. so she was half his age. and james and sarah only had the one child. franklin. when mr. james roosevelt bought this property in 1867, it was a 17 room farmhouse. it was about 110 acres of land. several out buildings for which he paid $40,000. which today is the price of an expensive car. back in the day it was a nice amount of money. the house however was in larged by fdr in 1915. because by then he had a growing family. and he had decided as early as 1907, 25 years before he achieved it that he was going to become president of the united states. and so he want ld a grander home for a future president. once he became active in politics

the house agreed on a spending bill. jeff bennett, i want to start with the man who made the trip down pennsylvania avenue from the capitol to the white house. that being chuck schumer. what do we know about this last-minute meeting between president trump and minority leader? >> we know that in just about's last hour, david, president trump reached out to senator schumer, the leader of senate democrats, invited him to the white house. senator schumer is now here. my colleague hallie jackson saw him just outside the west wing. asked if he might be able to broker some sort of deal, too void a government shutdown. the response from senator schumer is, i hope so. what's interesting about this is just earlier, just a f

doesn't the house know that? w do they get to the point of calling him in and cory lewandowski who wouldn't answer questions, how does that happen that they didn't do the paperwork or the protocol or whatever it is? >> it seems a little strange to me, ideally i don't think you even do it in the context of a specific witness. before you got to white house employees in general you would have a broader conversation with counsel's office to say okay, some broad categories everyone agrees are protected, some broad categories everybody agrees are not protected and if there something we have to fight about, let's fight about it. but just do it not on a case-by-case basis but more broadly speaking. i'm not sure why that wasn't worked out in advance. >> harris: do you know what it sets up? robert mueller gets a bite of the apple before the house intel committee does. >> he does and it appears that bannon's lawyers are taking the view that because mueller is an advance executive branch employee himself that privilege wouldn

the house in recess. they adjourned and will be back in session tomorrow, starting at noon to work on the extension, if approved by the senate. -- earlier tonight there was a demonstration in support .f the dream act here is a they did. did.look at what they announcer: that is a look at what was going on in front of the capital earlier tonight. the house will be back at noon tomorrow. the senate comes back at 10:00. we will see what happens in the house, depending on the

the response from the white house? >> well, frankly, we find that senator flake's comments disappointing. they are frankly bordering on outrageous. in a country that is totalitarian somebody who is opposing the president couldn't write a book. couldn't go on a media tour and couldn't sit on the senate floor and attack the president of the united states. we live in a free country. we disagree with those who criticize us but they are free to speak their minds. and, you know, senator flake was free to speak his mind only a few weeks ago when he went down to cuba and actually offered words of support for that oppressive regime. so, frankly, we reject senator flake's criticism. >> harris: all right. because the news is still coming, in i want to circle back to what we talked about at first with the friday deadline on government shut down what was the tone on tenure been like since last week? we had a 55-minute long meeting and then we kind of had melt down mode and next meetings with lawmakers. where are we now with the pres

>> the house went on to pass the authorization. during the week, the house will consider a measure to extend government funding and another one related to abortion. the senate also returns to work on reauthorizing the fisa which the house authorized last week. the senate will also need to work on government financing by friday. legislative business. votes will be postponed until 6:30 p.m. on wednesday and thursday, the house will meet at 10:00 a.m. for morning hour and noon for legislative business. last votes of the week are expected no later than 3:00 p.m. mr. speaker, the house will consider a number of suspensions next week, a complete list of which will be announced by close of business tomorrow. in addition, the house will consider two measures from the financial services committee. first, h.r. 2954 the home mortgage disclosure adjustment act sponsored by representative emmer, this bill provides targeted regulatory relief to local banks and credit unions. second, h.r. 3326, the world bank accountability act, sponsored by repr

the clerk: house resolution 695. resolved that the following named member be -- >> i ask unanimous consent that the motion be considered as read. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the resolution is agreed to. the motion to reconsider is laid on the table. for what purpose does the gentleman from florida seek recognition? mr. curbelo: mr. speaker, i ask unanimous consent that i may here after be considered as the first sponsor of h.r. 1661, a bill originally introduced by representative tiberi of ohio for the purpose of adding co-sponsors and requesting reprintings pursuant to clause 7 of rule 12. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, so ordered. he house will be in order. for what purpose does the gentleman from virginia seek recognition? >> mr. speaker, i ask unanimous consent that my name may be added as a co-sponsor of a bill introduced originally by mr. chaffetz. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, so ordered. the chair announces the speaker's appointment pursuant to 22 u.s.c. 2903 and the

we control the house and the senate and the white house. why can't you get this done you? know as well as anybody that it takes 60 votes in the senate to pass a appropriations bill. you know that. when you only have 51 votes in the senate, you have to have democrat support in order to keep the government, to fund the government. so that's the answer to your question. reporter: has the president asked congress to come up with a solution for the dreamers? congress was in the room, members of congress were in the room with the president last week. seem to be a fairly productive meeting. and then the whole process got blown up. it seems that the whole process was blown up by the president's comment. [inaudible] mr. mulvaney: when republicans tried to add a discussion of obamacare to the funding process in 2013, we're accused by nancy pelosi and chuck schumer of inserting a nonfiscal, a nonfinancial issue into the spending process, in order to shut the government down. how is that not exactly what is happening today? there's no reason that you have to deal with daca this week. t

republicans control the house, they control the is that the, and the white house. why is he talking about tax cuts, kirsten? what is that? >> i don't know. you want me to explain it? i can't explain it. but i do think -- i'm a little torn on the blame game thing because i do think it's true, the people who usually get blamed are the people who are in control. that's just the way that it works. >> who are in control, you said. >> yeah. in control of the government. and in this case the republicans is in control of everything. the only place i'd say i'm a little unsure about that is basically the problem is what the republicans are offering is basically a continuing resolution that also has something the democrats like. granted it's not the permanent fix that they like but it is still an xechx of a program that they support. and you know, should continuing resolutions be used as vehicles to get your policy preferences in? i'm not sure about that. i certainly was very critical of republicans when they did it with barack obama in terms of trying to take things out that

franklin painted it to look like the full house, and then, the press reported his promotion to the house, confirming its use as a shrine to the full house. as you can see in this slide, it says closed to friends during the construction. it's clear he actually wants fans to come into the house. he may deny this in today's hearing, but that's not what's out there in the press and on social media. he doesn't say that it's a home. he says it's the full house. he does not want a single-family to occupy the home. far from it, but he most certainly does want his project and this permit to be treated like a single-family home remodel. he chose to -- the outside work has begun, but it's not complete. the new red door -- but it's not a home remodel, it's a replica of the set. the new red door carefully crafted to look exactly like the one on the set was installed but has been stored during construction. mr. franklin has said that, too. the plans will show you how he plans to replicate the television house. so this slide shows us two story side bay windows. it's only there to create what's called a

we have no control over who comes to the house. this is the first moment that we would have any ability to communicate with the fans that come to the house, and that's something that the neighbors had said that they would want when we had initial conversations with them. i do want to address a couple things that mr. paterson discussed. one is he used the big, bad word of public nuisance, and that really highlights an issue for me that you know this permit is a building permit. again, it's a residential remodel. it's fairly ordinary, and if there's a different forum to deal with some of these issues, then there's a different forum to deal with some of these issues, and it's not appropriate to be dealing with them through conditions on a building permit. you know, respectfully to mr. paterson, the nolan and dolan cases deal with this. they dale with conditional uses, they deal with a number of things related to your scope of police power and the scope of your ability to put conditions on a permit. and again, to board member swig's com

house intel appearance. today the white house defended its coordination with bannon. >> there's a report today that steve bannon's attorney was relaying the questions he was asked by the senate intel committee in realtime to the white house. so my questions are, who was he relaying the questions to? is that something the white house specifically asked his attorney to do? if so, why did the white house think that was a necessary step in handling bannon's testimony? >> that's the same process that is typically followed. sometimes they actually have a white house attorney present in the room. this time it was something that was relayed via phone. and again was following standard procedure. >> the question from ashley parker of "the washington post." new reporting today from our colleagues at cnbc add slightly more context to this. according to a white house official, "staffers for the house intel committee and the white house on friday discussed the parameters of bannon's testimony. the white house emerged from that conv

watch the senate live on c-span2. >> house speaker paul ryan, thank you for coming. members of your party are saying the changes need to be made. speaker ryan: it is good to be back with you. anytime you do massive legislation like this, this is the biggest rewrite of the tax code in more than 31 years, the last big rewrite was 1986. this is more comprehensive than that. we knew all along, when you had such a massively right of tax laws, you are going to have some technical changes that will need to occur. for instance, we rewrote our entire international tax system on how we treat internation economics in cash flows. we knew that would need some revising. so far, not a lot really needs to be done, other than i would call small things. >> no republican support for the affordable care act, no democrat support for this bill. speaker ryan: i was surprised that not a single democrat voted for this. i think they will be regretful of that, because in 20 days, you have seen two million families, two million workers getting raises and bonuses. you are seeing all these raises

remained in the white house. schumer said the president did not reach out to him. someone who's been at the center of all of this, the director of the budget at the white house, mick mulvaney. president trump just tweeted that the senate majority should change the rules to only require 51 votes. the democrats just want illegal immigrants to pour into our nation unchecked. the stalemate continues, and republicans should go to a 51%, nuclear option, and vote on real, long-term budget. >> i think what the president did this morning is try and shed some light on the fact that if ordinary rules prevailed, the majority rule in senate the government would be open today. and it also responds to the constant criticism that we hear, the republicans control the white house, house and senate and why can't they open the government? we cannot open the government without senate democrat support, we don't have that senate democrat support which is why we are where we are. another thing would be to get some of those democrats back home to work in a bipartisan fashion but don't. whe

if they open the government at noon the house will pass this bill. instead of having the government spending bill go to february the 16th it, would go to february 8th. we agreed to that change in date. children's health insurance that dries up. you're seeing furloughed workers across america. troops are not getting their pay. border patrol not getting their pay. national parks, i could go on and on. this is totally pointless and needless. senate democrats did this. senate democrats can stop this at noon today. steve: republicans are dug n there will be no daca in this deal. democrats are dug in because they think they have maximum leverage. somebody has to budge. >> this is what is so weird about this issue. we were in bipartisan, earnest, good-faith daca negotiations before the government shut down. i would maybe sort of understand these moves, if we were saying we want to deport all these kids, we don't want to do anything. ainsley: exactly. >> that's not what we are saying. we are for fixing this problem. we want to make sure we fix it more compreh

the existing house. i want to give them time to talk also. and i think we have good reasons. it's one of the original houses on the block. there were virtually no houses in 1937 so historically we're maintaining the house as it has been and conforms in a similar profile to the houses and the surrounding neighborhoods in terms of the 25-foot width we are proposing and keeping the house at the same location at the front minimizes the amount of excavation. it is a hillside in terms of keeping it back and keep it where it is and will minimize the amount of excavation required and keep a nicer, bigger back yard. and if we can keep it to the front, it will create more separation with 761 27th street, and i had a meeting were of with her and at the time of the pre-application meeting she was more concerned there'd be no windows and we put them in on the west side of the house. her only other comment had to do with the impact of light it. comes from the south. the size wouldn't have an overall affect. i'll have y

the white house blames the democrats. so, too, does the republican house speaker paul ryan. ays the democrats deserve to take the blame if in less than 12 hours from now the government shuts down. >> i think the democrats are hoping the american people won't know that they have their fingerprints all over this. the chips in the extension bill, the government supports that. keeping the government funded, the government supports that. there is nothing in the bill that the house passed yesterday, not a single thing, that the democrats oppose. that's what's so ironic about all of this. so this is nothing more than legislative hostage taking. >> again, for your scorecard, ryan, the public will side with him and shut the government down just to get a deal for the d.r.e.a.m.ers. it's a big and complicated debate. >> the republicans are in majority control of the house and senate. the republicans are in control of the house of representatives. the repz cublicans are in contr of the white house. >> i understand. it's an election year. they're all political partisans. this is what they

control the republ house, the senate and the white house. specially the president are apparently incapable of governing. listen to what the military, what the department of defense said just the other day, in terms of the fact that we have not had a budget for the entire year, we are a four trillion dollar government, we do not have an annual budget. this is from the pentagon. we have been working under a continuing resolution for three years now. our current c.r. expires tomorrow january 19. this is wasteful and destructive. we need a fully funded fiscal year 2018 budget or face ramifications for our military, end of quote. this is the military, they cannot go month by month. i represent a state, jake, that 25% of our people get their primary health care and dental care through community health centers, they have not been funded in 3 1/2 months. people died last year because the social security administration is not adequately funded and able to -- people who have disabilities, a "washington post" story, put their claims in and while they're

at the white house. think garrett's analysis was spot on per usual in talking about the erosion of trust between the president, democrats certainly, but even among some republicans. and so beyond this vote tomorrow this procedural vote tomorrow at noon, as this deal comes together and as it plays out especially as it relates to the border wall. in talking with people close to the president about this issue of the border wall. they say sort of the same version of the same version of the sail thing. that the president doesn't want to be seen as seeding ground on this issue. this is the issue on which he thinks his base will not forgive him if they think he's giving over the shop to the democrats on this issue. the first pillar of his national security approach. call and response at many points during the campaign. on this particular issue, of course it colors his hard line immigration views. it's also the issue that we hear that steven miller his senior policy advisor and of course john kelly also share a s

the republicans control the house, the senate, and the white house. >> no, i don't think so. ongress in general. again, we passed 12 appropriations bills. the senate didn't do anything. one senator in the senate can filibuster and shut the whole process down. you know, i've been here for five years, and i've seen the confederate flag issue shut down the appropriations process. so we had to go into an omnibus or short term spending. we saw some other issues that came up that shut down the process. it's a broken process that we need to fix. and let's hope that the beginning of this year, right now, we come out with a budget, we do our appropriations like we're supposed to, so that we can go on and fix the other issues in this country. national security, jobs, infrastructure. those things. and let's move for the american taxpayers and build on tax reform that we did in 2017. it's so important to move the country forward instead of getting stuck on this stuff. >> there's been a debate about the exact wording. but it's clear that the president's message in that controversial immigr

the white house. with the exception of a few phone calls here and there, very little contact with the white house. and i certainly have never spoke to him since he left. >> here's what congressman adam schiff, the ranking democrat on the house intelligence committee said to rachel about this. >> they send general kelly out today to say we haven't invoked executive privilege. technically that's true. what they have done, telling witnesses don't answer the question but also don't tell the committee we've invoked executive privilege. we don't want to look like we're hiding something, so don't answer the question. if we don't allow this, it impairs the ability of any congress in the future to hold any administration accountability if we take no for an answer when it's convenient for the white house. >>> joining us now, betsy wood rough, ron clane, and john hileman. ron cline, i want to go to this news today about steve bannon cooperating enough with the special prosecutor that they dropped the threat of a

but the white house warns it would be dead on arrival. we have the view from both ends of pennsylvania avenue. let's start with sunlen serfaty on the hill, abby phillip at the white house. sunlen, at the capitol, the clock is ticking. >> reporter: the clock is ticking, briana, the president's tweet not helping the already complicated efforts up here on capitol hill after the president tweeted about the c.h.i.p. extension. a lot of people up here saying does this mean he does not understand the policy, is it a poorly worded tweet? or is he really undercutting the republican strategy to try to push this short-term spending plan forward. many members really scrambling up here to try to really decipher what that tweet means for the overall negotiations, and the fact that republican leadership is now pushing to try to hold a vote this evening to get the short-term spending plan through the house. that's not to say there is a lot of complicated efforts on the senate side that they also have to overcome. we will hear from speaker of the house pau

the full house has no say in this. it is just the members of the house intelligence committee where the republicans have a majority and by all signs, the majority needed to pass this. >> that's right. senate republicans have no say whatsoever and the house intelligence committee can vote to send it to the president for declassification, the full house doesn't have to vote on that. we'll see if the house committee will decide that today. >> the president says he wants this release, so every reason to believe this will go public. manu raju, thank you very much. >>> joining me now, asha rangafa. let's talk about the latest reporting that seems to be inside this memo. republicans very upset for some reason, the deputy attorney general rod rosenstein extended the fisa warrants to surveil carter page, carter page obviously this foreign policy adviser to the trump campaign, somebody on the fbi's radar before the trump campaign because of his contacts with russia. help me understand what would be controversial about the deputy

the white house directed bannon not to answer questions about his time in the white house or the transitioneriod, prompting the republican chairman of the commission to issue a subpoena on the spot. bannon was then requested for 9 1/2 hours and the hearing only just ended. that's him leaving as you see. congresswoman adam schiff is the ranking member of that committee, the house permanent select committee on intelligence. and let me begin with this. i do not really understand what happened today. so if you could just explain. bannon was called before the committee and what happened when he got there in the beginning? >> yes, he was brought before the committee on a voluntary basis. but he quickly informed through his counsel the committee that he was not going to answer questions that pertained to meetings, conversations, events, et cetera, that took place either during the transition or while he was part of the administration. and what's more, we would later learn that would be extended to even after he left the white house concerning conversations that he may have had with the president.

that is the hardline part of the house. what steven miller's opposition reflects is in the end, paul ryan may have to -- any deal that may refuse them, they may have to pass without the support of the majority of the house. that is a rubicon that could be coming in the next few weeks. they will be getting this whirlpool here. >> if we can go to the floor now. tammy duckworth is a veteran, and she is being mindful of the military, its needs and being supportive. let's listen. >> this great nation. but in the meantime, let's at least take the sample comments in step that we all agree on. let us remove any possibility, military pay and even worse, military death benefits will be used and held hostage as political leverage. that would be unconable. to pay the military act, is the least we can do. we must continue working for as long as it takes to develop and pass a bipartisan solution to fund our government. however, if acting now if military pay and death benefits continue during our shutdown brings relief to one military fami

host: the president is about to depart the white house, this is the south side of the white house with the limousine sitting out front. would you be in contact at this point with the white house, you knew exactly when he was going to depart? where were you at this point? bill: at this point i would be at the house door with the senate sergeant at arms and the architect of the capitol. we would be relayed from the secret service and the capitol police, where they were exactly. he would arrive at the house door and we would go to the first step and meet the president, introduce each other, ourselves, and escort him inside. host: it appears, and we will get some updates from greta shortly, but it appears that the first lady motorcaded departed separately down pennsylvania avenue. would you have known about that? bill: we would have known about that. host: once you greet the president, where do you take him? bill: we take the president to the holding room on the second floor, the speaker's holding room. he stays in there until the escort committee come to get him and say hello. then they e

we are now inside the old hall of the house of delegates. usually referred to as the old house chamber. this room is filled with memories rich and rare and it's also filled with statues who, prominent legislators, jurorists, military or naval commanders, scientists, inventors, and so on. and in this room, this is where the public pulse of the capitol first dime life in october of 1788 when the house of delegates convened here and for about 100 six years this was the historic setting for great debates and defining decisions that would shape the destiny of virginia and influence the history of the united states. the virginia state capital and the constitution of the united states were born in the same year. 1788. and the constitution is just a few months older than the virginia state capitol. the american revolution put richmond on the map as a new capitol city for a new common wealth. then in 1861, the american civil war put richmond on the map as a new national capitol for the confederate states of america. and virginians took a long time to

the white house physician said mr. donald trump scored 30 out of 30 on the cognitive test. >>> today, the president meets with senior leaders at the pentagon with the strategy on the table for north korea. the pentagon is discussing a possibility of a nuclear strike in response to a non-nuclear attack on the u.s. the president is now accusing russia of helping north korea evade sanctions aimed at curbing the missile program. cnn's paula newton is live in moscow. good morning, paula. >> reporter: good morning. president trump finally listening to his briefings. it has been months if not years that russia had been in violations of the sanctions. something spelled out in the u.n. report. i first reported on this in april. what is different now is donald trump is zeroed in on the damage that russia can do in terms of negotiating with north korea. if north korea gets one idea it has an ally even when china is putting prisessure on it, especially with fuel, it may cause them to be tougher at the table or not come at the table

it worked in the house. several democrats voted for it. >> the bill that passed the house. democrats have to -- >> democrats should support the bill in the senate. the house has passed a bill. the senate has a couple choices. they could not take it up. either they take it up and pass it, don't pass it or change it and send it back to the house. the point of the matter is there are things of the bill they like. they have nothing in this bill that they don't like. the only reason they aren't voting for it is they want other things to be added to it and they want a shutdown. that's the only explanation we have. >> the main thing democrats want is daca. and you've said before everyone wants a solution on daca. what is the big sticking point then on your end about including the daca fix in this bill? you don't get to vote on a summary. there have been months of work as you see with any major piece of legislation. it shouldn't come together overnight. there is no daca bill to vote on and there is no emergency in terms of the timing on daca. daca does not expire until march 5. ther

he claims it's up to the white house. claiming that they essentially gagged him and told him he could not speak about that time period. more importantly though, i think is the special counsel his appearance before the special counsel, when that will happen. that's going to be a significant time period. he will not be able to claim executive privilege in that case when he appears before the special counsel because if he does get into a place where he starts refusing to answer certain questions, remember, they have the grand jury subpoena that they can still basically force him to appear before a grand jury where he would have to answer questions or plea the fifth. >> all right, shimon, thank you for that update. let's talk with cnn legal analyst and former special assistant of the justice department michael zelden. explain this to us, shimon says now they have in their back pocket still this subpoena before the grand jury. but why was bannon subpoenaed when he seemed to work out what everyone else did, which was just havin

republicans control both the house and the senate and the white house. this statements are going to drive us apart, it's more difficult for us to come to an agreement. what is he talking about? appealing to a base? we got -- he's got to operate the government. he's going to come together with a plan to keep government open, and he's talking about appealing to his base on a racist comment? >> this is a bomb shell. this interview in the wall street journal in which he stuns everyone by saying, quote, i probably have a very good relationship with kim jong-un. i have relationships with people, i think you people, referring to the reporters who were interviewing him in the oval office are surprised. he was asked if he's spoken with kim jong-un, he said i don't to want comment on it, i'm not saying i have or haven't, i just don't want to comment. you're the top democrat, the ranking member on the senate foreign relation committee, you've been briefed on all sorts of sensitive diplomatic overtures. do you know if the president of the united states has spoken wit

the u.s. house is gaveling in next. we do expect them to be in just briefly for now, with possible work later on. thatrday they are proof same day rule for consideration of a continued resolution. the senate is in session, they have been session for about one hour and there is discussion about a possible way forward, at least on the senate side. we will update you on that once the house devils out momentarily, but let us go live to the house floor. the speaker: the house will be in order. the prayer will be offered by our chaplain, father conroy. chaplain conroy: let us pray, god, we give you thanks for giving us another day. you have promised that you are with us wherever we are and whatever we are doing to heal and to help, to give strength and make us whole. we pray that we all and the members of this assembly especially will be receptive to your promises and receive them with confidence and conviction and armed by your spirit, we will be able to forge good solutions to the current impasse to promote equity, justice a
