Here. both side are going to have to be willing to give a little bit. i think thats a very important part of this. you have to give a little to move forward. hopefully we can do that and start that process. >> i would like both of you to take a swing at this question, problem solvers. how do you deal with the problem of fear? you met yesterday with a man, donald trump, who was so afraid of his position on the board that he changed it immediately when he got a tweet from a talk show host. and you...

Problem. it didnt hit home reaching out to many of the house and members until friday wren thhen they fit that goose egg on their paycheck. >> 0.00. >> yes. >> which i think goes a long way to why we are seeing progress. we had the problem solvers come today. they are finally getting together and having some consensus. there is going to be have to be some horse trading. i believe daca has to be part of the deal. what they have moved on, lets open up this government and it is the only out. you la...

Commander-in-chief. keep watch. we have team fox coverage. kristina partsinevelos with the latest on how the shut down is affecting the economy. mike emanuel reporting live from capitol hill. first, john roberts reporting live from the white house. john? >> you might need more than 280 characters if you were to give the state of the union on twitter but you could do it in point form. no question this has come down to a battle of wills between president trump and the speaker of the house, nancy p...

Bipartisan members of the problem solvers caucus. they listened to one another and now both have a good understanding of what the other wants. we look forward to more conversations like this. but democratic members of the problem solvers caucus have made it clear going into this meeting that the message that they were carrying to the president was the same one as nancy pelosi, the same one as chuck schumer. that is reopen government first and then well talk about border security. heres new york ...

>> they are. we have seen some democrats have painted themselves into a corner. the president tried to do an end run around the democratic house leadership this week and invited a number of members of the house over to the white house for lunch. they unanimously refused, would not come, which makes them appear somewhat intransigent. that may have to do with members of the problem-solvers caucus, a group of centrists and bipartisan house members arent going to the white house to meet with the pre...

Then. is it your sense that those that refuse to meet with the president, he wanted to meet with a number of democratic officials yesterday, congressmen, woman and i dont know if its true that they were told not to do, but they didnt go, not a one. >> a couple of them yesterday came and decided to come together. >> neil: thanks for that. i was going to ask that. so do you think that it is bad when someone refuses an invite from the president to go to the white house and meet? >> lots of people h...

Think the president would do what he did in his oval office address on immigration which is that he belittles the democrats, demonizes immigrants. he goes on and on, tells lies and then he expects somehow no one is going to call them on it and if they do, they are bad folks were saying it. my mind, the big issue here is the president and the white house today said were going to bring back 46,000 irs employees and not pay them. what you see happening at the airports. in atlanta yesterday, huge li...

To delay the state of the union? >> kennedy: the state of the union is just a political trick. sleight-of-hand, in order to adjust focus away from a solution. if i were a democrat voter i would be more frustrated, because i want these lawmakers to get together. there is a solution, and the problem solvers and some of the more rational bipartisan will be able to cobble something together. if im a voter in a swing state, thats what i want to see. i dont think theres a better time to talk about the...

Members of the coast guard to tsa agents and air traffic controllers and other people that keep america safe. >> last night at the capitol, several moderates of both parties say they plan to release a letter saying its time to reopen the government and restart negotiations. they dont have a deal to propose but want to pit on paper. and the problem solvers group heading to the white house to discuss. the real story, all these bipartisan talks, they said they believe the bipartisan groups wont get...

So president trump effectively disinvited by speaker pelosi to this months state of the union address. she is citing government shutdown security concerns as the reason why shes asking him to either delay the speech or send a letter to congress until the shutdown is over. in less than 45 minutes, members of the house problem solvers caucus will meet with the president to talk about the shutdown at the white house. joe manchin of west virginia is joining me. >> good to be with you. >> we have a l...
