kate: the markets, some volatility recently. investors are starting to get a little anxious about possible signs of recession, not too far off, maybe on the horizon, how concerned are you, are your members about economic growth slowing down next year possibly? mr. bradley: i think we're more concerned about policy missteps that could lead us into a recession. so one of the things driving the stock market this week or two of the things driving the stock market this week are tariffs and what is going on on the trade front and the threat of a global trade war which would absolutely push us into a recession and making sure that the fed gets the normalization of interest rates right. so a lot of attention being paid to both of those things. that's driving a little bit more of what you're seeing in terms of the swings in the stock market than the underlying fundamentals. the underlying fundamentals we need to be concerned about as well. we need to make sure we don't make policy missteps in the mean tight. jeff: there was a report that

kate: also, i wanted to ask deficit. there have been some reports that the president has been increasingly ntly concerned about the debt and wants to address it next year. on track to more han double borrowing, deficits hit $1 trillion next year. we have seen that one of the rivers is this drop-off in revenue this year because of lower tax revenue. that?o we fix how much of a priority is that for the chamber and if the and democrats are not willing to touch entitlements medicareal secured and and you don't think that they hould roll back any of the reforms from the tax bill, that's pretty hard math. does the chamber take a position on that? mr. bradley: we do think that a problem, long term debt say problem. one of the reasons we support our ax bill is that fundamental belief that you're not going to just cut your way out of our deficit problems, you to grow your way out of it a nation etent, in where you have sub 3% growth for idea that in that environment that you could go in entitlement programs, change the safety net

>> that's right, kate. yeah, president trump defended his decision to withdraw american troops from syria while visiting a country that has felt the ramifications of a hasty american withdrawal the way that few have on the planet. in iraq, he suggested that the united states is no longer the suckers of the world. he said that the american operation in syria is not a nation-building one, and he added if necessary, if there was a resurgence of isis, the u.s. could always re-enter the country through a base in iraq. he suggested there was no plans for a troop withdrawal from that country. he also shed some light on the conversation that led to this decision. the ultimate decision to remove american troops from syria. listen to how he described his interactions with top military leaders. >> one years ago, i gave our generals six more months in syria. i said go ahead, get them. and it turns out it was really a year and a half ago. i said go get them. we need six months. go get them. and they said give us another

but mike pompeo made the call, kate. so it's a moment that is sensitive for the military in this time of transition. but over the holidays, as we have seen before, a long tradition of presidents visiting troops over the holidays. i think president obama, did it, for example, in hawaii over the holidays. president bush, as well. and so now president trump after not having visited troops last year at christmas time, in an active combat zone, is now doing so this year. still more specifics on this. for example, if he will make any other stops while he is overseas when he might return back here to the white house. but, of course, the backdrop to this domestically, kate, he would be returning to a washington that as of now is still shut down now, heading into day five of the government shutdown here in d.c. >> hallie jackson, stay with us, if you will. we should note, there is always a pool that travels with the president, so we're getting those pictures in from our pool correspondents who are with the president in iraq. let

and our political correspondent kate brady is covering this story she joins me now kate what do you make of those reports and how significant would this movie. it certainly would be a significant move indeed and this would also mean a big change for the german military act of course for the past sixty one years of the german military's existence the bundeswehr only german citizen citizens have been able to serve germany in the military so this would be a significant move but of course this isn't the first time that we've heard this idea here in germany it was already proposed in the german defense ministry white paper almost two years ago which sets out future plans for the german military and of course there are already several other smaller e.u. countries which already recruit some troops from around the e.u. block so this isn't a completely new idea but would certainly be a significant move for japanese military and will kind of people is the army looking for and what conditions to they have to fill. well really what we've been hearing from the german defense ministry so far is that i

kate, how significant with this movie -- move be? kate: this would be a big change for the german military. in the past, only german citizens have been able to serve germany in the military. this would be a significant move. this is not the first time that we havave heard thisis idea hern germany. it was proposed in the defense ministry almost two years ago. there are already several other smalalleeu countrieses that recrcruit some troops from aroud the eu. this is not completely in the idea. but it would certainly be a significant move. helena: what kind of people is the army looking for? what conditions do they have to fulfill? kate: what we have been hearing from the defense ministry is that it is specialists they are targeting. i.t. specialists, doctors, medics. the conditions they would have to fulfill in order to serve are not yet so clear. of course, a good grounding in the german language would of course be a prerequisite. helena: the fact that germany needs to look outside for troops, surely that must raise concerns? kate: i

finally, kate, president trump is once again talking about this idea that democrats once they take over, if they start investigating him, he calls that presidential harassment. he even brought up james comey, unprompted, to point out how democrats are really attacking him for what he says is no good reason. so we are really heading into the new year, heading into this new congress with all the same old fights brewing in the background. and president trump not taking a single day off from airing his grievances and complaints from the white house, kate. >> and to sum up his final message, when he was speaking with reporters, it's a disgrace what's happening in our country but other than that, i want to wish everyone a merry christmas. so there you have it, abby. thank you so much. my goodness. let's see what happens next. joining me right now, cnn political commentator hilary rosen. cnn political commentator alex stewart, thanks for joining me today. hillary, he's clearly digging in when it comes to the wall and the shutdown, he's not bundle on the wall. what's going to be different when

so kate, thank you. but let me start with you, kate, for a moment. much of what you're talking about which i was trying to get into with dr. murthy what are the macro forces today that are changing the way we interact? you dealt with a lot with physical intimacy. but intimacy broadly, the connectivity between people and you wrote, printed out in small type a 23-page article that's probably, i don't know, 16,000 words. kate: 12,000. steve: what did your research show you? kate so i started with physical : intimacy in part because that's the most sort of surprising part of this picture. we all have this idea that other people are having a lot more sex than they actually are and the young people in particular are having a lot more sex than they actually are. and very attention getting when you tell people, in fact, people who are now in their 20's are less likely to be physically intimate with another person and are having sex less frequently than people who were in their 20's from the gen-x generation or among the boomers. and what i found is leading l

kate? >> thank you, lisa. officials are trying to get the word out about the big waves and one agency is warning that you could risk your life by getting too close. but as cornell bernard found out, many people are still trying to take a look. >> it is exciting. mother nature is awesome. >> reporter: vanessa is watching and waiting for big waves from the pacific. waves were crashing near the pacifica pier and the surf drawing a crowd of curious tourists. from moraville. >> they are huge already. >> reporter: and they are bracing for the waves that may a break the sea wall, but these are not close to the ones that the officials are saying are coming to spots like ocean beach in the next 24 hours. >> if anyone is even steps foot on the sand, these waves could creep up onto their chest and take them out into the ocean. >> and that could cover most of ocean beach, and from where i am standing all of to a way to the seawall. the waves could top three feet. san francisco fire and city officials warning people to sta

we are here with jason and kate. make the case for passing this bill. >> i don't think this is a perfect bill but i think it is an improvement over the status quo. it focuses on two things, first onon four small sentencing chans and creates a system to encourage people to engage in productive behavior while they're in prison and potentially re-enter society and be able to contribute. paul: jason, you wrote a column expressing your displeasure with certain elements of it. what don't you like? >> well, i like some of the things that kate was talking about, the prison reentry stuff. most people in prison are going to get out one day. we should do a better job to make sure they transition back into society better. the problem is with the sentencing so-called reforms. these were not in the house version that passed. these are new to the senate version. it's why you're seeing pushback fromrm some senators. there's a reason why so many states have heee three strikes laws and truth in sentencing. those are there because judg

we'll start with you, kate, and follow up on the job numbers. kate: neal, i would love to know what you think about the report we saw this morning, what it says about the broader health of the economy and where we're in the business cycle. guest: we're obviously ninth ear of a recovery. the numbers come below expect'ses, 155,000, strong growth, low unemployment, wage growth above 3% annualized basis. i think what we're beginning to see is the tightness of the labor market having an impact here. as we begin looking out to the duration of being able to stay this level of economic growth, one of the things we're most concerned about is actually having the workers that we need to fuel continued growth. good strong numbers, but worries about our ability to grow. >> you mentioned the markets, volatility. seems like investors are starting to get a little anxious about possible signs of recession. not too far off. maybe on the horizon. how concerned are you about -- your members about economic growth slowing down next year possibly? guest: i think we're
