0 it increases spending. it blows a bigger hole in the deficit, and it breaks the work that congress made with the american people, and that s reduce our spending, not increase it. as you can imagine, with paul ryan sticking his neck out on this, he has a few choice words for those who oppose it. read the deal and get back to me. i look, that s just i think that s people are going to do what they need to do. in the minority, you don t have the burden of governing. so in an op-ed today, rubio says it does not tackle jobs, meaning it will be harder for more americans to achieve the american dream. he s not the only who oppose, cruz, paul and lee. there are reports mitch mcconnell is against it as well, and it s rare for him to break from john boehner. boehner got mad yesterday at his briefing, lashing out publicly to conservatives pushing republicans who oppose the bill. here it is again in case you missed it. most major conservative groups have made statements blasting t

[ bagpipes playing ] the official remembrances began this morning at arlington national cemetery beginning with the playing the bag pipes. bag pipes a personal favorite of jfk s. they were also played at his funeral. minutes later in arlington, taps echoed through the cemetery as a wreath was placed at the site where the president lies alongside his first lady, jackie. this afternoon dallas will mark the day with a solemn ceremony in the plaza that jfk s motorcade passed just before the infamous shots rang out. thousands will be in attendance. coming up in minutes, i ll be speaking with a woman who was just a girl when she witnessed jfk s murder. she took iconic photos of jfk s last moments. right now we want to get big political stories of the day. good morning, everybody, i m thomas roberts coming to you live from washington, d.c. topping our agenda, a november to remember in the senate, with t
healthcare.gov website. it is expected that he ll directly address the issues with that site for the first time and talk about a plan to fix them. what we ve been covering is the fact that there have been complaints and glitches in the system for people to get properly enrolled. also not having tangible and hard factual numbers about actual data of who has enrolled successfully. but the president is going to be out just moments, again, secretary sebelius taking her seat there in the front row. i want to bring in our agenda panel today. igor volsky, irin carmon and corey dade. gang, i want to apologize for being rude in advance because if the president comes out, we re just going to jump away and go to his remarks. corey, let me start with you. republicans are ready to pounce on this and keep using words like train wreck. again, this is not about the law, it s about the website. yeah, that s right. at this point the president has to come out today and very clearly make a distinction
