Over the way that kelly handled the dismissal of top aide rob porter once allegations seemed to have surfaced seemed to have subsided now. the president is clearly looking over peoples shoulders to see who may be able to serve him better. >> i have gotten to know a lot of people very well over the last year. and im really at a point where we are getting very close to having the cabinet and other things that i want. >> and today the president is trying to find himself a new ally potentially in th...

People in the country hate washington, they hate washington politicians and so both parties are at risk here. the republicans that ive talked to are saying in more than national numbers, we are looking for those trump voters in those states where there are democratic incumbents in the senate running for reelection, you know, in states that trump won and they feel confident that they can use that line to bring the trump voters home. so i dont see a quick resolution. >> lets look at the states whe...

Mess. pete: so, speaking of mess, what is this all about? caroline shively is live in washington, d.c. to break it all down for us. caroline, good morning. >> good morning to you, pete. senators needed 60 votes to pass a continuing resolution that would have kept the federal government open for another month. they can only scrape together 50. four republicans voted against it rand paul of kentucky. lindsey graham of south carolina. mike lee of utah and jeff flake of arizona. five democrats cross...

High ground as clearly and precisely as it might want to because politics is always complicated and always unfair and brings us to senator menendez ginn an honor by chuck schumer, democratic leader of the senate on the very same day that chuck schumer eagerly accepted al frankens resignation after publicly urging him to resign. bob menendez is a member of the senate finance committee and confer ees are supposed to be members of the committee and not always appointed by seniority on the finance c...

Ethics process. he remains a sitting senator in the state of new jersey. al franken, on the other hand, heads back to his home state without that process having taken place. the bottom line is a lot of this has to do with not the democrats themselves but a man who works at 2016 pennsylvania avenue, and there is discussion about why president trump was not having to face a higher bar. >> menendez was awarded yesterday, awarded, with a seat on the conference on the tax bill, which is not his speci...
