all eyes are on capital hill tonight, that's where congress is trying to broke a last minute deal toid a partial shut down of the federal government. the deadline is just 2 hours a happening live right now in dcof the push that obama to avoid it. >> reporter: a senate rejected of a house bill that tries to derail and defund obamacare. now that goes back to the house, it is unclear of what the house is doing that at this point. we are two hours away from a potential government shut down. >> the clock ticking towards midnight, that's the deadline to avoid a government shut down. >> in the united states's congress does not fulfill its responsibility to pass a budget today. much of united states government will be forced to shut down tomorrow. >> the democrats are at odd at one key issue of obamacare. neither the senate or the president will go along funding it. >> it is time for the senate to listen to the american people just like the house is listening to the american people >> the president speak by phone to leaders of both house in congress tonight and house speaker boehner includin

reporter: but as veterans and military families stress over the shutdown, there is still a place where congress at least can get away from it all. no worries, the senate and house gyms are open, although some complain on the radio they have to bring their own towels. >> there's no towel service. >> no. >> and we're doing our own laundry down there -- >> serious -- >> we pay a fee. >> reporter: only acceptable federal facilities are supposed to be open, and a fit congress is important. but essential? his advice, shut down the gyms until the madness ends. george? >> okay, jim, thank you. >>> let's get more from jonathan karl. jon, no surprise, the disgust with washington just keeps piling up. >> reporter: that's right. and republicans are taking most of the blame. but the president isn't doing that well, either. take a look at the latest poll from the associated press. the president's approval rating at 37%. that matches his lowest ever. as for congress, look at this. 5% approve of congress'sob performance. george, with the margin of error, that could be as low as 1%. >> you'd think they'll be sc

part of the conversation about immigration and this is a time of very unique opportunity time where congress has this one's in a lifetime ability to make the updated changes. we need to reflect what our business you demands are going forward to hopefully reflect the need to bring people out of the dictate area of undocumentation and into the lime light and have them fully participate and as mayors and major cities across the country we need that comprehensive immigration reform. we have other things to talk about on the aspects of that. but i'm pride to join our homeland security to make sure that we are talking about this and sending a message to congress and all our representatives. our country to be fully covered we have a lot to do with us passing reform immigration policies >> that was well said. just as jan napoleon said that but you led the catholic immigration programs in the country iowa why is this important to you? >> it is. >> good afternoon, everyone it's a great week to be here i'm fortunate to be here. i have to commit a moment ago we were gathered in the conference room and a

. >>> a live look where congress, they could not reach an agreement tonight. both the house and the senate pushed the temporary spending bill compromise to the 11th hour with no success. and now some 800,000 government workers will be staying home tomorrow without a paycheck. in the latest move, the senate rejected a house bill that would have funded that government, but delayed the start of the affordable care act. the cbs reporter danielle nottingham with the heated debate. >> we want a closed government. this is all a big fuse. >> reporter: the new fiscal year started at midnight just as the last one ended with the divided congress in turmoil. the republican-lead house refusing to pass a bill that only funds the government. and they were refusing to consider anything else. >> i dare you to do that. >> reporter: no shutdown of rhetoric and partisan sniping on monday as they made their cases to the colleagues from the floor and to the nearest cameras outside. >> this is a matter of funding the government, providing fairness to the american people. >> speaker

don't have compromise in congress, nothing gets done because we have this separation of powers where congress and the president are co-equal branches of government. very, very different than netanyahu's parliamentary system. and if you have one party at its core that says no compromise, then you cannot get anything done. >> so let me bring this to you, because i'm going to get a screaming and raging e-mail, no one is holding the president accountable, how is he going to go into the next round of budget negotiations which starts now and how he is going to be able to lead better this time than the last time? >> i hate to be so pessimistic but this is the ninth time that they are trying to get the grand bargain. the silver lining is maybe out of this chaotic situation, boehner has a little bit more credibility with his radicals and he can sell them on a deal and the president has a little bit more interest in his -- in furnishing his legacy and finally getting a deal. but, look, i hate to say this but there's been -- the problem has been -- >> leave me with the silver lining and don't say anythi

that's where you'll often see correspondent reporting from when they do live shots in congress. a massive operation under way at the moment. according to the aid of a senator, although the police have said they believe the shots were fired outside. that's not to say one cancels out the other. it could be that there has been more than one incident. it is all pretty unclear at the moment. i don't know if we can go yet to our correspondent in washington, d.c. i think we made connection with kimberly larkett. >> the little that i know there have been reports, one possible two shootings now as we can see from our picture there is a big securities operation going on. what do you know? >> reporter: i can tell you right now we're continuing to work our sources. the u.s. capital police are in frantic mode right now. they're usually the one who is dispatch the information to the reporters or the satisfy, who are in the capital building right now. staff is reduced because of this spacial government shut down that has taken place. the fact that many of these are federal workers considered n

if there was any question where congress headed, this should make it pretty clear.u are not going to pass clean debt limit increase. i told the president there no way we are going pass -- when votes are not in house. and president is risking default by not having a conversation with you. house speaker john boehner on abc this week appearing suprisingly defiant to those that assume he being railroaded by tea party conservativeses among them treasury secretary jon jack law. we have good relationship i have talk to john i know he does not want to default. he aparty on sunday morning warning of the consequences of the inaction. on the shut down, and the debt ceiling. if shut down ends quickly, the recovery -- we will recover from damage. if goes on for longer period of time it will do more harm these crisis typed in republican desire make trade. changes health care law or budget deal long-term entitlement reform or debt ceiling increase. on fox news sunday host kreul wallace noted 27 times in past that congress has attached other big issues to the debt controlling what'

we will take you to washington, dc, for a report on where congress and the obama administration stand this morning. >> firefighters climb to the top of the south bay home overnight. the overnight flames sending crews rushing to this san jose neighborhood keeping firefighters on the scene because of hotspots. >> and bart was one week before the cooling-off period expires. >> mike nicco joins us with a look at the weather. >> happy hump day, everyone. live doppler 7 hd shows thick are clouds, high clouds over the north bay and the temperatures are slightly warmer this morning. the rest of us are a couple of degrees cooler. we will break down the next 12 hours, the day planner is temperatures in the low-to-mid fists and a colorful sunrise. high clouds and sunshine and 67 at noon, and breezy by 4:00, and more so than yesterday with temperatures hanging out in the low 70's. inland we have 40's out there in the deepest valley to 51 with high clouds here, too, and the next 12 hours we have mild weather at noon at 72. get close to average at 4:00 with 78 and we will drop down to 68 so ten deg

with the progress of talks where congress is headed in these negotiations to resolve the shutdown asest you know at this hour? >> we will meet again in the morning and certainly i will think that capitol hill police for the job that they did i know that was your lead story by personally want to thank them for what they did. today we passed to fund the guard and reserve and the national parks and the veterans are right now i heard senator reid say he will not negotiate all with a continuing resolution nor would the president and i @%ard the secretary of treasury just make a great case for negotiations so be ready to negotiate ever people ready we are prepared to do that right now it's. lou: i just reported the president's disapproval rating is up 50% in the most recent tracking poll down at 44% this will come down to whether or not the american people support either congress or the president on the issue of obamacare to be rational and reasonable and fair we hear stories that your caucus is divided do you have the strength of leadership in the solidarity of the caucus to persevere in

the right areas where congress is trying to make you bite things. haps the longer-term conservative outcome is on the spending cars. there is another piece of the ruling that for the first time ever petite and congress lots of time is enabled because the structure of our government to order you must do x. but he can say if you don't understood that's fine. it's your choice, but we are going to take $8 billion in highway funding. the choice is yours. you're a sovereign state. do whatever you think is best. the supreme court in the health care decision with respect to medicaid funding said for the first time seriously now, you can go too far. this is congress could not revoke all the safe medicaid funding if they refuse to expand the rolls. so that is the place where you can see the consequences coming, where they don't congress wants to make the seas do something. .set about the restriction on congress' ability to gain back the purse strings is something we could see more of. >> unfortunately, we're out of time. i went to thank you all for coming. cla

this is an important and perhaps historic compromise where congress was really looking into the abyss, where congress was really proving that it cay not function -- that it could not function and our system could nonot function in the divided politics of america today. it now appears that our leaders have pulled us back from that abyss and given us an opportunity, an opportunity, not a guarantee, but an opportunity to continue the discussions that started with this terrible shutdown, and give us the opportunity to try to bring our country together and to resolve the problems that we face. it's a shame that we've spent so much time doing what i think is the obvious: run the government, pay our bills. but now that we seem to have passed through this moment, now we can move forward into the long-term challenges of our budgets, of our -- the challenges facing our people, our ability to solve problems and prove once again that this wonderful constitution that has been bequeathed to us can still function, can still produce results, can still govern this country. abraham lincoln said that we

and then let's go to capitol hill now where congress is sit stuck. al jazeera's libby casey is there for us. what is the latest on efforts to unstick this educatio situationd the shutdown. >> reporter: this has come from house democrats. this is a group that has been dis'em powered. it's between the house and senate. house democrats said if speaker boehner would allow a clean bill if he would let that go to the house floor they believe it would pass because they believe enough republicans would say let's just get this thing moving forward. the house has a work around, it's a petition. they need 218 members to sign on to this petition to bring a clean spending bill to the house floor even if they were able to get that, tony, it's a lengthy process because of all the procedural hurdles it has to get over. it doesn't really have to go anywhere until mid-october. >> reporter: we want the vote today. make no mistake. we want it right now. but this will at least start the clock ticking so that by octob october 14th unless they try to abuse the rules of the

we will take you to washington, dc, for a report on where congress and the obama administration stand the top of the south bay home overnight. the overnight flames sending crews rushing to this san jose neighborhood keeping firefighters on the scene because of hotspots. >> and bart was one week before the cooling-off period expires. >> mike nicco joins us with a look at the weather. >> happy hump day, everyone. live doppler 7 hd shows thick are clouds, high clouds over the north bay and the temperatures are slightly warmer this morning. the rest of us are a couple of degrees cooler. we will break down the next 12 hours, the day planner is temperatures i

things, too, we've asked this before, but i think the average american has gotten to that point where congressputation is in the toilet, to put it pull lipolitely. has it ever been this bad? >> probably not when you look at how much legislation has actually been passed th the last couple of years. i remember the clinton years and the gridlock that is the monica lewinsky scandal, but now we have a polarized congress that does not necessarily reflect the folks that we're going to be talking about in a bit. things are pretty bad. as vain as i might be, i was not hoping to be here tonight to discuss this. but do i think something will happen? i think properly. the think the treasurely department claims they've got to have a decision to raise the debt ceiling by 11:50 eastern time or hell breaks lose. i think we are proceeding upon a course in which if we don't have a deal in the next hour or two between the two key politicians in the u.s. senate, mcconnell of kentucky and reid of nevada, they'll have it done in the morning according to aides. the senate hoping that house would go first, well, sorr

that is not where congress left the news. because late last night, after senators reed and mcconnell announced that they were on the verge of that deal, republican ted cruz went to work. he's been meeting with and delivering pep talks to republicans in the house. telling them not to cave in, not to listen to house republican leadership, not to fear any political consequences and last nights on the news, the senate would be sending over a plan for the house to consider, cruz met with about 20 house republicans at this washington tex-mention joint. according to role call report, the group is a collection of members that have often given -- compromised measures as well as packages crafted by fellow republicans. continuing from roll call quote, the dinner meet wugz held in a private basement room, the group was spotteded by majority whip kevin mccarthy. let's stop there and remember kevin mccarthy's job as the republican whip in the house is to keep republican members in line, to keep them voting in the right way, the way that le

they had a situation where the congress had to flee the city because soldiers marched on the capitol. they wanted to make sure the district would be protected from that. >> as you can imagine our community disagrees passionately. and lori what is your opinion on statehood? >> i'm all for it. i live, i pay taxes here. i believe we should be a state. i hear about what the founding fathers and this and that, but quite frankly there are over 600,000 people who live in the city. and if there was a will to get it done, i'm sure it could be worked out. >> the budget autonomy can be fixed legislatively, and i think it would be certainly in the interest of congress as lori said earlier, if we have ever had a moment that showed us that we need budget autonomy for the district of columbia, this is that moment. we're seeing the ramifications and consequences of this, and they are profound, and it's a policy that has no rational reason for still existing. in terms of representation that's a harder question, and people have very different views. from my reading of the constitution, the representati

the united states is getting closer and closer to the debt ceiling and thursday is the point where congresso raise the limit or else the u.s. will start to exceed what it is allowed to borrow for its bills. so what we want to do is break it down and look at how the u.s. government does pay its bills and whether it balances up or not. so let's open up the checkbook to last thursday when the u.s. took in $110 billion through taxes and loan repayment and custom fees and those things. however government outgoings on the same day were $143 billion. now, it takes simple math to show the u.s. was over spending last thursday to the tune of $33 billion. and that is just one day. the entire credit limit or debt ceiling as we call it has a lot more zeros on it. have a look. 16.699 trillion dollars is that debt limit. and if congress doesn't raise it the government won't be able to pay all of its bills. that could have a huge impact on the economy, the value of the dollar would dive, with it would go the value of exports as well, stocks and bonds would probably drop too. it could amount to an acute sho

there are some constitutional scholars who say if it comes to the point where congress refuses to doresident can constitutionally raise it. i don't know, i'm not a constitutional scholar. i think pass business person and business community looking at this, saying there is lot of ways we can get around this. liz: treasury secretary jack lew told fox business last thursday, no way the president will not invoke the 14th amendment. david: that's right. liz: he said there is no change in sofa cushions he is hiding from anybody. he is tapped out october 17th. we will watch it. david: steve, tough questioning you answered well. i appreciate it. liz: thank you. >> great to be here, thank you. liz: tracking earnings trends could make you big money. we're looking at potential winners and losers as earnings season kicks off. we names. you can't afford to miss the list. david: and does janet yellen make the grade? we have an all-star panel to discuss president obama's choice for the next fed chief and how her policies might differ from those of ben bernanke's. ♪ if you've got it, you know how ha

will the government say we want single payor which was the plan all along or a situation where congress will take control and get it fixed. 20% of our economy is at stake. >> we are going to look at single payor, we raised it last night to see if that's what's going on here in moments. the bottom line for the lawsuit today, the lawsuit has been allowed to proceed, challenging obama care and set up of these exchanges and forcing people to pay the penalties and we will see whether that winds its way to the supreme court and gives challengers another bite at the apple. jay, thank you. >> thanks, megyn. >>> just ahead, david bossy, guy behind citizens united supreme court decision that the president dislikes so very much, his group was warning about the perils of this law, the potential down sides to it, and he is here live on the growing health care meltdown, and reports now tonight that 300,000 florida residents are being kicked off their health care plans and that's just florida. plus -- >>> he is the lawmaker known for making some of the most outrageous statements in congress. >> that's

so, where do many congress members, where are they today? where did they go? well, they went

that's where congress ought to be heading. we've been heading in the opposite direction. we're using the last four years borrowed 40 cents for every dollar we spent. we're not taxing people to do anything today. these are going to be paid by our kids. that's what the whole fight is about from the republican narrative is we need to put a stop to this and the only leverage we have are the budget resolutions and the debt cerealing to have these kinds of discussions. so there's nothing wrong with that. the difficulty here is it's been broking down with no agreements. so by going over the hill on both of these. over the cliff, you make things worse. >> what happened in the '90s when tom and i were there. '93, '94, congress passed a budget resolution, passed implementing legislation. they did both. cut spending and raised taxes. as a result, then you had balanced budgets on through the latter part of the '90s. congress is willing to take a balanced approach. now you can't sit down and talk about that. you can't start a dialogue about that. and that's a big difference. we took t

to me that the country has now been in the last few years been through several of these blows where congresshas come right up to the brink, has been through the kind of thing that we're going through now even though the government hasn't completely shut down. does there come a point though, diane swonk, when consumers get used to it? is it possible they could get so accustomed to washington hitting one of these moments when we know it's going to take days or weeks to figure it out? >> well, you know, we've seen washington turn a deaf ear to capitol hill and they didn't really -- sorry, wall street already turned a deaf ear to capitol hill where they didn't react initial they much to the government shutdown. but i think mark's very correct. it's unimaginable what would happen because the recession would be immediate and you would feel it very quickly. and i don't think consumers can ignore it forever. i think there's an inconvenience and if you're in one of these places you feel it right away and those consumers are workers who feel it right away, as the cab driver mark mentioned at the begin

hours to go before the country crashes through the debt ceiling, we are live on capitol hill where congress is finally working fast and furious to pass a deal. >> today they will also see congress reach a historic bipartisan agreement to reopen the government and avert a default on the nation's bills. >> you want to know what this fight is about? it's about one thing. it is about all of the people -- >> as the senator from texas says, he won't block a vote. >> i have no objections to the timing of this vote. the reason is simple. there's nothing to be gained from delaying this vote one day or two days. >> but will the house jump on board? we'll talk to democratic leader nancy pelosi. does she now hold all the cards after president obama says the speaker has lost control? >> there have been repeated situations where we have agreements and he turns back and it turns out he can't control his caucus. the challenge here is can you deliver on agreements that are made? >> the key players joining us here for our special coverage, chuck schumer, kelly ayotte, amy clove shar and our team of reporters

that's where congress should be focused on. we need to get past this crisis management for running our government. this is not a good solution for anyone. >> robert costa, what happened to the discussions that paul ryan was conducting and other people, where they were going to play entitlement reform and tax reform -- in my opinion, both would be pro-growth measures if done correctly. what happened to that nexus? >> it's still very much on schedule. if you look at this emerging deal, it has a budget conference for future fiscal talks later this year. that's what ryan's always been aiming for, to have a tax reform and entitlement reform. maybe sequester change for cpi. he floated those ideas in "the wall street journal." but he could never get that done in this compressed time period. that's why he's trying to push it forward to the end of the year. >> do you think in that sense, the republican house got something in this deal because there is a budget conference that's supposed to report on december 13th or thereabouts from the

which is the president has taken a position where he's asked for nothing in return for congress doing its job. he is eager to sit down and have tough negotiations and conversations with republicans and democrats about our budget priorities. but only after these basic responsibilities are fulfilled. if the government reopen and the threat of default be removed. do you think that house republicans -- >> i just don't think that's the way we want to look at this here. here's the thing, whatever analysis you make of the data that you cite, and i think there's a consensus that reflects what you said, we wish it weren't so. we wish instead congress simply kept the government opened. we wish instead that the house had allowed for a process by which congress without drama and delay ensured that the united states would pay its bills into the future. just like we wish for the country, for deficit reduction, for our economy, that the house would follow the senate's lead and pass comprehensive immigration reform with a big bipartisan vote. that might be good for the republican party. analysts say

accountable to that congress is he who are ten year congress and a country conduct you know affected oversight of the bar we've seen a few episodes where members of congress for example where john brennan was nominated had cia senator ron wyden other senators senator ron paul use that opportunity for some scrutiny of the drone strikes and at the same time you have president obama in his state of the union stagehand in a speech saying that he will provide that type of transparency that you and also the human rights advocate groups are hoping for however let me play devil's advocate here a recent economists article shed light on a surprising discovery sophia khan she's a school administrator from islamabad found that many chinese men from tribal regions actually support drone strikes also one star of a in two thousand and nine found that fifty two percent of if people actually say that drone strikes are accurate and sixty percent say that these drone strikes actually weaken militant groups so what is your reaction to that i mean obviously not everyone is against drone strikes is there a way to you drone strikes in a way that is political

drone strikes where ink. congress and there were maybe only about. only four members of congress present at the at the in the briefing room for the congressman of course apart from the congressman who initiated the meeting it's no secret the u.s. congress generally approves of drone strikes so it's very difficult to expect the sudden change of heart even the heart was what these drone victims were appealing to on a cobra twenty fourth of last year and was told strike left this one pakistani family devastated nine year old girl and her thirteen year old brother nearly scaped death that day their sixty seven year old grandmother was killed while picking vegetables in her car and as of this nine year old not below she saw everything and i was able to catch them very briefly a day before this meeting in congress if you is what she said. why do you think you queer mother was killed. that money or that it didn't go any i don't know but one of the reason why we came here i have no idea why my grandmother was killed that. did you do we need blew up do you ru

that had been passed by congress, signed into law by the president, upheld by the supreme court of the united states and litigated, to use your word and presidential campaign where the candidate that took their position lost, shut down the government that didn't achieve their aim. the president's position has been that he has demanded nothing in return for congress simply keeping the government open and doing its job that the united states doesn't default. news op ed from the china agency, they said among other things, it's a good time for the world to consider building a deamericanized world. what is the white house's message to the chinese? >> i would simply say it is an important fact that the full faith and credit of the united states, the principle that has existed for centuries that this country pays its bills and pays them on time and that includes paying investors from around the world, the principle that this economy is a safe bet and the safest bet that investment in ur country is as safe as any investment anywhere should not be compromised. and those who would compromise it are flirting with something -- are risking something that has immense value to
