>> when you talk about human infrastructure and what democrats want, that range is probably anywhere from $1.5 trillion to bernie sanders' $6 trillion number. so they have quite a ways to go before they get to 50 votes even before they start figuring out how to draft the bill, get it on the floor and get it past. so peter baker, let's change subjects just for one second and talk about someone that you covered and many of us covered over the last four and a half, five years and that's the former attorney general william barr who spoke to jonathan karl and told him they realized from the start that these allegations of widespread voter fraud were nothing more than pure, and i will just use the initials, bs. fascinating article in the atlantic by john karl. what's your take?

daytime television within the party. big chunk on the right, ignoring you and cut a deal with democrats? and mike kaufman has legislation, get it on the floor. paul ryan looks weak not being able to stop that but it comes to the floor and use democratic votes to pass something like that. >> congress doesn't have the time or the space and the time that's left this year to do the things they have to do. the budget. the debt limit. harvey aid. to layer on daca as well, for the president, if he's going to end the program, announce he's ending it tomorrow, but with a six-month delay to get congress to act is as much as ending it, period. they're not going to add in that time frame and where's the leadership? he could have done that. february, ran the tape in february how much he loves dreamers. where's the -- could have -- if a leader would propose legislation to congress, i -- decades of covering congress and the white house. i was thinking about this before
let's take this to the floor of the u.s. senate. let's have debate and put amendments on it and have up or down. leap forward or get out of the way. >> vote or fail. move on to tax cuts. >> the message we heard today there's a bill headed to the floor next week. still a few hurdles, but with the cbo, that's the direction the ship is sailing right now. >>vote, whether the votes are therer not. >> that's my sense. get it on the floor of the senate and let senators duke it out on amendments, up or down. >> neil: i hope you have air conditioning. it does get hot and sticky there. >> hotter here than in montana. >> neil: that is true. thanks very much. >> thanks, neil. >> neil: you heard a little bit about these donald trump jr. e-mails here. it's the white house reaction that is curious on this and where they go from here. if you're looking for the white house to be necessarily super forthcoming on this, might be a
i don't think there was a way to come up with a bill that was going to satisfy everybody no matter how long they took. now the test for republicans is, can they govern? this is the first time they've been with a republican president in years. there are no more excuses. and it's also a test of the president. he says he's a deal maker. he says he's the king negotiator. well, now that he's put to the test, because that's what it's going to take to get this done. >> one of his quotes post election, when he told "the washington post," we're going to have insurance for everybody, there's a philosophy in some circles that if you can't pay for it, you don't get it, that's not going to happen with us." that's setting a pretty impossible bar from where republicans are right now and what they want to do. betsy, what do you make of this notion with justin amash, you can see it suggested in a little bit of what paul ryan was saying from the lectern, this is a promise we made, and i can promise you that we're going to stick by our promises. this notion that basically kind of calling republicans' bluff, put it out there, get it on the floor, and then basically dare
being with us. >> thank you, andrea. >> this is technical and you know the details but it is so important. the safety of so many people is at stake. tell me what your argument is and why you think it's been stalled. you got it through committee, didn't get it on the floor. >> that was last congress and this is about the abuse of location tracking technology and it's far more widespread, this gps stalking than people realize. my first hearing on this a couple of years ago, my first testimony i got was from the minnesota coalition of battered women. and they told this story, about a woman in st. louis county in minnesota, northern minnesota, she goes to a courthouse and there's been domestic violence. she goes to a domestic violence program while she's there, she gets a text message from her abuser saying, why are you county building, are you going
across this country have, which is the issue of dealing with border security. we haven't had those inputs in the past. and as you know, as you read out on the first of the program, those inputs all have to be in place before green card status can be achieved. >> with this deal in place, are you willing to place chances that immigration reform will not only make it through the senate but through the house? >> you know, jake, i found in life that the best way to be successful is really to focus on the task at hand and do it in the best way that you can. right now we obviously need to close this amendment out, get it on the floor, get it voted on. i do think that if we can pass this amendment with these tough, tough, tough border security measures, i think it does add a lot of momentum on the house side. i think it adds to the probability of something passing out of the house, but i would never predict what might happen in another body. >> all right, senator bob
