senator shelby voted for it, the president moved the goal post. said, no, now i want $5 billion. >> brennan: they come down to around two, why can't democrats come up from 1.3? >> that's negotiations that need to be done between leadership, between senator shelby, senator leahy and others and move forward the wig thing is that how is the money going to be spent. what is the most effective way to secure that southern border that is what is important here. we can do it with technology and manpower much more effectively. than with a wall. >> brennan: you heard senator shelby thinks probably you're going to have to talk about things that democrats want including profession for drea dreamers is that the sweetner that would get democrats to reconsider? >> i think we've been here before. i was in the room when the president said, if congress passes something i'm going to sign it then he moved back away from. that so i think ultimately in the end we do need comprehensive immigration reform, no doubt about that, margaret. but in the end we need to know wha

washington post" saying i don't think it is imminent that we will reach a deal from senator richard shelby. he was in that luncheon today. by sunday,was made later next week at the earliest that the shutdown would end. at the very earliest it would be december 27 or december 28, correct? >> correct. >> give us a sense of what it is like on the hill today. is it busy? is it chaotic? what are you hearing and seeing? >> from the perspective of a reporter here it has been very chaotic. i have been running around between the first floor and the second floor, literally running after richard shelby. we have been tracking the movement of vice president pence. there are a lot of moving pieces to figure out. i was a little bit surprised when leader mcconnell made the announcement that they were going to go out for several days. you did have a lot of senators fly back and do that procedural vote, now it sounds like they will be flying back to their districts and there is a lot of uncertainty about when they need to be back. >> senator mcconnell's office saying that the meeting on december 27 could be

senator mcconnell: where we are at the moment is i think that senator shelby and i made a reasonable offer to both sides -- offer and both sides should of been able to solve the border funding issue and is still pass the remaining bills. i believe that the incoming speaker, nancy pelosi, has little attitude to make a deal. and that may be senator schumer's view as well. but my impression is the incoming speaker feels she does not have the latitude to -- with. if i was in her shoes, i would rather not be dealing with this year's business next year. i would assume her preference would be to roll out the new democratic agenda with a fresh new democratic congress in the early stages, but i think that this prevents that if we end up going with a relatively short term cr -- we will end up punting this year's business into next year. and i do not think that is a desirable outcome from anybody's point of view. i would think it would be the least desirable outcome for the incoming speaker's point of view. -- is that part of the deal? senator mcconnell: as is customary, before recess the democ

shelby, all sorts of activity inside the white house. we've been talking about this idea of john kelly leaving for a long time now. it looks like it's actually going to happen. and this idea that kelly is the source, to the extent there's any sort of behind the scenes discipline in the white house, kelly is the source of it. a white house without john kelly, what would that look like? >> i had the pleasure of interviewing leon panetta when kelly got the job. and he said we'll see how -- it will take time to see if john kelly is successful. he will not tolerate disorderly leaking and shenanigans behind the scenes but did say if president trump decides to hell with discipline, i'm over john kelly, we'll have a problem. it's hard to know if that's where we are right now because we don't have the straight story out of the white house. there's no way john kelly is staying. looks like he got a little ahead of himself. it's a white house that's desperately needing order. john kelly has done somewhat of an effective job and some say it's just an

an shelby and leader mcconnell continued. i am here this weekend and will talk with members of both parties. to the samecome conclusion. we could agree easily, republicans and democrats. we can only succeed if the president decides to do what we have done and that is put the country first. the president of the united states owes that to the american people. he owes reality. we are approximately 2:30 on a saturday afternoon trying to do the people's business in a situation that nobody wanted. politicalse i believe self-interest we are in a situation right now where we are in what i would call a crisis mode of operation. we need to get a deal done. i want to address a couple topics today that are at issue here as we debate the funding issue. that is why we are here today and this weekend. our country was built on immigration. there is no question about that. derivativesirector in one way or another. , would like to be very clear most of the people that are here in this country over the last two centuries came in legally. today

shelby says the following. we would all have to have assurances the president would agree to what we agreed to and he will sign it. sunday seems to be the operative day when they hope to have some gravity around an agreement and maybe try to bring members back sunday night or early christmas eve, they did this in 2009 on the first vote to push obamacare through the senate but if they don't get something then and i'm told by multiple sources on both sides that they are very skeptical of that scenario, this could be the 26, 27th or even last until january, some don't think this will solve this until next weekend. what they are fighting over is $900 million, which is pocket lint in washington dc money for border wall or border security. they are at $1.6 billion that the proposal is want to take that to $2.5 billion, democrats say they would reject that. i'm told the house minority leader nancy pelosi won't go higher than $1.3 billion. how they get resolved by sunday night is anybody's guest but if they can get an

senator shelby is arriving. mike pence in the room or getting ready to be in the room as the president and senate leaders sit down to try to figure out some kind of a solution because we're just now 13 hours away from a government shutdown. let me phrase it how it was phrased this morning. the shutdown status right now, kind of a hot mess. the facts just back that up. the meetings will happen. these leaders may or may not come out and talk to the media afterwards. >> reporter: it would appear from where we sit that fundamentals of this impasse have not changed since the last white house meeting with a different group of republican lawmakers. paul ryan came out and told reporters there was no deal. president trump would not sign anything that didn't include the $5 billion in border wall money he says he wants. you have this meeting going down now with president trump and a group of senators. richard shelby chairs the senate appropriations committee. that's partly why he's here. you have the senate expected to tak

and richard shelby also went into the white house. turning now to ito. they are victims of the recent volatility, it appears. let's bring in some at who knows a lot about. ipo's volatility bad for ? >> inverse relationship. vick spikes, the ipos aren't that great. vonnie: we have been waiting for major ones like uber and lift -- lyft. when do we see those? i think that you see them in 2019 but the backdrop is a volatility has to improve. guy: if the ipo's are not happening, what are these companies going to be doing? >> there is no reason when you file an ipo -- it doesn't say you must issue. in the ipo process, you can file and take your time. for those market initiatives, find your investor base and wait for the appropriate time to issue. there is no rush to market when someone files. guy: in terms of exit, one of the ways you can exit if you are .n investor is via ipo what does this mean in terms of the overall deal flow around the markets? >> that is a good point. what we typically see with these kind of household names is an upti

we said it is unthinkable we would have a shutdown so we agreed to this february date that senator shelby and others have withdrawn and so this is a path. now they are having a breakdown over this but what they are doing right now is how we got to where we are. >> you are the first female speaker and about to work with the largest incoming class, my question is what can they learn from you and what can you learn from them? >> we all learn from them because they are the new class. anytime a new class comes we always say here they come into among them will lead in this body? who among them will run for other office? who among them could be president of the united states? they bring fresh from the trenches, energy that is so useful to the congress. they learn from us how congress works, they have an impact on it to make change as to how congress works, it is a pretty exciting engagement, even more so now when we have such a large class that is transformative. we have 64 democrats in our class, 43 -- 43 new democrats to replace republicans in the congress. many of them are women who have up t

-- shelby chairs the senate appropriations committee and then you have freedom caucus members. last night it was suggested that the president might be open to making a deal by accepting less than the 5 billion demanded, by accepting a border made of steel slats, not this concrete wall stretching from coast to coast. if the president is willing to make a deal that would include something different than had he said earlier, he's going to have to clear it by this group of republicans and that is how he would arrive at a deal. we have to see what comes from this meeting. they're still in the residence behind me, hashing out how that would proceed and what if anything would come from it, alex. >> as soon as they emerge from that lunch and you get some notes to share with us, we'll come back to you. >>> joining us now, senator langford. we're tacking abolking about tho discuss border security. what do you take about the phrase that mentions border security, no mention of the wall. is this strategic? is it something to your mind that is a new development in the president's approach to

assistant to the president jared kushner, senator mike lee, senator lindsey graham, senator richard shelby, mark meadows, jim jordan, representative matt gates and andrew biggs. all those lawmakers from capitol hill are republicans. mike pence, mick mulvaney and kushner spent hours on capitol hill trying to bargain with congressional leaders. we are hearing that mike pence is expected back on the hill shortly. the president will go as far as it takes to protect the american people. >> it went to the floor, came out of the house, it sits squarely in front of senate democrats and for whatever reason they have decided not to support the american people in this president, people in the coming across the southern border. >> donald trump said he would take the blame for shutdown and would be proud to shut down government over the border wall. he changed his tune and is placing most if not all the blame on democrats. the december poll found most american voters, 54% oppose building a wall on the mexico border but 86% of republicans said they support the wall. so far the president is siding with h

we kind of look silly. >> if that is the case, what we are hearing from shelby here, why aren't they doing anything about it? >> i think we are seeing this as a big political game of chicken. we are seeing republicans and democrats trying to shift blame for this shutdown on someone else. of course, both sides are bigging i digging in. the president's promises on building a wall. he's not giving up on that. he sees this as one of the last chances to get the promise fulfilled. at the same time, democrats are taking over control of the house. they are prepping to come up with a deal to offer the end to a shoutdown and force republicans to vote on that. we are seeing both sides digging in, trying to deflect blame, but not necessarily coming together for a compromise. >> jonathan, why does the president feel the need to refute what john kelly is saying about the wall, saying, no, this is a physical wall. why does he feel or believe his base is so committed to the idea of seeing an actual, physical wall? if the president went out on a limb that it could be a wall in some places, different

shelby said we would all have to have assurances that the president would agree to what we agreed to and he would sign it. sunday seems to be the operative day, they hope to have as one official described some gravity and maybe try to bring numbers back sunday night, maybe early in 2009, to pass the initial version of obamacare. if they don't get something, i've been told by multiple sources they are very skeptical of that scenario this could be the 26th, 27th or even last until january, there's some who don't think we will solve this until next weekend. what they are really fighting over here is 900 million which is pocket lint in washington, d.c., money for a border wall or border security. they are at 1.6 billion is the proposal now, they want to take it to 2.5 billion, democrats say they would reject that. i'm told the house minority leader won't go any higher than 1.3 billion. how they get this resolved is anybody's guess. here's the key, if they can get a universal agreement which is how bob corker described it on all the appropriations bills, than they are in business. if that

>> it seems to be shelby has struck a somewhat more moderate line. if you look at the rest of the attendants about lunch, it was pretty hard-line supporters of the president. people who favor holding the line against democrats even if he gets criticism from the media and the political word generally. so that is really where that meeting was going on. >> with addiction do you think it gets done later this record later this week or does it stretch out? >> i think that'll stretch out a little bit but not indefinitely. mid-january, famous last words. >> thanks for your time. pleasure. mike: some states are getting by christmas, others getting a white christmas. meteorologist adam klotz is here to break it all down. hi, adam. >> cave bear, mike. it is going to be for some folks at least a white christmas. others is just the rain. temperatures are too warm across parts of the country. you're sober look look like on the sunday were not a lot of weather across the country but temperatures in plenty of places above freezing. even in spots where you might thin

so what you saw here from mitch mcconnell and richard shelby who we did not have on camera, but talking to reporters off camera is the posture of being dug in. they stand with the president and support his call for this bill, and they will be blaming the democrats if the government shuts down. and mcconnell said that the d democrats should support border security and falsely saying that the democrats are in favor of open borders here, and dug in. but the reality is that this bill does not have the votes. so the question is, is there a plan b? we don't know. is there a goldilocks option to compromise to get something through both houses or the plan going to extend as far as the failing, and then back to the drawing board, because what you have here is a situation of the republicans and particularly the white house made two big tactical errors earlier in the process, they had the meeting in the white house where trump said on tape and on camera in front of the country that he would be proud to own the shutdown and the white houses gave assurances that the president would sign that clean c

studio during a five year stint as an artistic director of dylan shelby in a theater session of arts created one of the most significant productions coppa. it's an exploration of anatomy that delves into every aspect of the human body both inside and out. time and again the company conjures images that see themselves into the viewers memory like a nightmare. at the same time isn't afraid of venturing into more abstract territory in fall when she takes dance back to its more ceremonial ritualistic origins while her early works were wilder and closer to daily life her later choreography is feel more crafted or artificial for clear too if she transforms dances into animalistic creatures and explores social issues. of our grandmother your mother was a gallery and your father an architect. so you may have inherited your talent for a strong visuals from the one side but space has also always played a key role in your work what you look for in a space what appeals to hear those things might be actually rehearsed or building sites a lot of the jewish museum had only just been completed it wa

when detroit whisking with people like to lower-income people like lee iacocca, people like shelby. they made cars. they made cars and americans wanted. and we had the oil crisis of the 1970s and people started going to more 1 fuel-efficient cars le the japanese cars. america's problem was we never could get it. that's not in our dna to our dna is to make the best cars. we invented the carpet we know it the best, and i support the president on slapping tariffs on cars because when we sent our cars there they slap heavy duties on them. a lot of times they don't on our country basic for free. i just want to say that. i think detroit needs to get back to making cars the way they used to make them. >> guest: during the auto bailout in 2008 president obama turned one of his advisors and said why can't chrysler engine build a toyota corolla? basically the same point you're making that u.s. companies historically not made a competitive small car. what do they do well? pickup trucks and suvs and the next huge profits on those vehicles, ten, $20,000 depending on depending on how fancy those

senator shelby talked about splitting this over two years, go $2.5 billion this year. that is a reasonable kind of approach. i support what the president is trying to do. i don't disagree with him in terms of policy. $5 billion isn't the entire cost of a border wall, so let's pick the places where both sides say that actually makes sense. listen to what the people at homeland security tell us they need and approach it that way. this has gotten into one side trying to satisfy its political base, the other side its conference. oft: what is the possibility a $5 billion package being added to that? guest: there's a good possibility. i am never in favor of government shutdowns. i don't think they work. i've always opposed them. it never ends up where you think it is going to end up or where you hope it ends up. and it inconveniences the american people. your job is to come here to make their lives better. it does not make life better for anybody. if you want to ask questions, it is (202) 748-8001 four republicans, (202) 748-8000 four democrats, and for independents (202) 74

elections in syria could be held in the near future that is the hope well let's go live now to omar and the shelby who is a beirut based security political analyst and friend of the program hello to you marc. the u.s. if i may start with this say it isn't seeking regime change but that they want a fundamentally different situation to assad being in charge or those two statements in contradiction to each other. well i think the united states is the administration today in washington and in the pentagon they're trying to reposition to position themselves and the reason for this repositioning is the series of failures i think that the bush administration failed in its campaign in iraq in two thousand and three then came the obama administration that failed in its declared objective to really move to do more. to do with the change in syria today the trumpet mr shays failing by counting and supporting in the first in the first phase the they were like counting a little bit on the kurdish presence now tension with turkey has reached an all time high and i don't think that this is very healthy for protec

this comes as richard shelby is writing a bill to extend current federal spending the february. the president said he would be proud to close down federal agencies if he does not get what he wants. president trump has agreed to close his charity accused of rampant wrongdoing. the donald j. trump foundation and the new york attorney general have agreed to the dissolve the charity and giveaway its remaining $1.7 million. the attorney general said the foundation was little more than a checkbook to serve trump's interests. spending willnd hit an all-time high as the toernment extends handouts keep its vision 2030 program on track, including a cost-of-living allowance totaling $11 billion. the kingdom is struggling with falling oil prices and anger over the killing of jamal khashoggi. this is the largest budget in the history of saudi arabia, aiming to support economic growth and raise the efficiency of spending and sustaining financial stability as goals of 2030. >> asian nations are being warned to expect further downgrades on the fallout from rising u.s. interest rates next year.

shelby: mr. president, i would like to start here this morning by thanking my good friend, senator orrin hatch, who happens to be in the chamber, for more than four decades of dedicated service here. we served together, mr. president, in the senate for 32 years. he was here before then. i remember senator hatch when he was first elected to the senate in 1976, when i was still serving in the alabama state senate. this was his first run for public office, but more to come. senator hatch, as we know, is the longest-serving republican senator in u.s. history. he's only one of only two sitting u.s. senators to have served during the presidency of gerald ford. he's one of only two remaining republican u.s. senators who have served during the presidency of jimmy carter. senator hatch, as we all know, serves currently as the president pro tempore of the u.s. senate, one of the highest honors in the senate. and he's chaired three senate class a committees during his tenure in the senate. the finance commi

>> senator shelby and i, and some others who were invited down to the white house, had some good conversation about the way forward. >> reporter: but democrats are holding firm. >> you are not getting the wall today, next week, or on january 3rd when democrats take control of the house. >> reporter: just two days ago, the president seemed ready to fund the government without insisting on money for his wall. but then, a revolt from the white. >> it look like a lot of people's worst fears may be realized. >> it's becoming clearer and clearer that all we're getting are words, words, words. >> reporter: the president was listening and changed course. >> let's face it, i mean we have two talk radio show hosts who basically influenced the president. and we're in a shutdown mode. it's just, i mean, that's tyranny, isn't it? >> reporter: tonight, with hundreds of thousands of workers in limbo. a scramble to come up with plan "b." but the blame game is already on. trump once proudly declared he would own a shutdown. >> i am proud to shut down the government for border security, chuck. i will take the

we should not forget there are relatives because she had a family and i mean the killing of mystical shelby is a catastrophe but it's for the family and the relatives is. a very bad situation that they are not even able to bury the body and to have a place where they can can go to so it for me it's also is not only a political question is also a question of humanity do you think the world will ever believe that m.b.'s was not responsible for that killing in europe everybody thinks that there is a certain kind of responsibility i don't know if it's personal order or people thought that it could be his wish it's an open discussion in europe but everybody things that it will not. case will not be organised like an accident. is western policy on syria now focused more on what to do with certain groups or elements there where there are groups with iranians rather than the broader political future of the country which would be left to others unfortunately europe plays no role in syria is that a mistake that has to have a lot of migrants and that yes that has to do with. europe itself and europe w

there has been discuy,ion alre particularly from richard shelby, the senateap opriations committee chairman, powerful guy, that some kind of stopgap fundings through january 3 might be necessary to avert a partial vernment shutdown. but it is fascinating how the two sides are just so dug in. look, there's probably less than 1% chance that democrats would agree on $5 billion for a border wall. before that remarkable oval office exchange, and now after trump y said he would take ownership for a shutdown, there is a zerohae. there's barely a constituency on capitol hill for instigating a shutdown for a border wall funding like the president wants. perhaps some of his allies ag willo go with that, but i talked to a lot of republicans on capitol hill just about that remarkable moment and his owning that shutdown andnd i f cornyn, the number two in the senate crom texas,ments to me remarkable. he just said, i don't understand the strategy. maybe he'll exp bin it, i don't get it. >> the white house seems to be walking back, kristen. >> the presidenteemed to walk it back in a tweet the very next da
