Letter before doing a formal rule making as has been prfl previously promised. >> your point is well taken. >> they were both democratss obviously youre a democrat congresswoman pressley is a democrat. was there a difference? how he handled thee questions from women and men. >> absolutely there clearly was. i think that this is something we saw. one of the reasons i asked the questions i did in a very kind of low key factual tone what is your position on this what do you know about this was i di...

Races and the legislature teaming up with the current governor saying lets take power away from the governor and attorney general. what are those powers they tried to take away? >> there are a whole bunch. theres a tremendous amount within the bills. these bills restricted the authority of the attorney general to litigate, say that he needed permission to do several things. they allowed the lenl slacher to hire its own private attorneys and intervene in litigation involving the state of wisconsi...

Concerned about whether or not its good for consumers or bad for consumers. i think the problem here is that the trump administration has actively supported the idea of these mergers through its rule-making at the fcc. and theres actually a senate bill pending that would make it more difficult to have these kinds of mergers which advocates have argued means higher prices, fewer voices, fewer choices on the air. and yet, if donald trump was taking a consistent policy position on this particular m...

>> bill: she wants to be president. elizabeth warren on bloomberg touting her proposal for a wealth tax to even the field. maria bartiromo on fox news, good morning to you. how do we define capitalism without rules? >> i dont understand what she is talking about in terms of without rules. there are rules in this country in terms of structures on how to do things. but the whole idea of capitalism is you are given an opportunity. an opportunity to work so that you can work hard and achieve your ow...

The start. but it just showed a preview of what trump versus pelosi is going to be like. donald trump has had republicans who were willing to bend to his will for two years, next year is going to look dramatically different. >> and ron klain, the democrats have accomplished something that i think is very important having worked in a legislative body, in the senate for a while. and that is they demonstrated their ability to stop something. they didnt achieve anything new. they didnt achieve anyth...

Different. >> and ron klain, the democrats have accomplished something that i think is very important having worked in a legislative body, in the senate for a while. and that is they demonstrated their ability to stop something. they didnt achieve anything new. they didnt achieve anything positive. they simply stopped donald trump from getting what he wanted on the wall. and that is the most powerful power that nancy pelosi is going to have in the next two years. >> no question about it, lawrenc...

Something temporary. >> the chief of staff position does not need senate confirmation. so everyone serves at the pleasure of the president of course but if he chooses to leave, if he loses face with the president and goes back to the senate confirmed position as omb director, but again, i cant stress this enough. mike murphy, omb director is one of the most important jobs in any administration. its not just the budget. its rule making, its all kinds of rules and regulations and decisions, conseq...

Make it hard to fill these jobs. its also important to understand the fall out from it. it actually hurts the presidents own policies. if you get into the weeds in rule making around the administration, when you stop filling the senate-confirmable jobs for assistant and deputy on down the line, you actually cant do certain things in terms of policy making. it shuts down the machinery. and he cant even do his dereg stuff. its important to have personnel in place. >> maybe thats a silver lining. h...

Was very concerned about easing up on regulations, i shouldnt worry or i should a little bit? >> well your lawyer should worry. theyre going to make a ton of money just and be paying a lot more but in general your bottom line we dont see any big impact because we never brought in the deregulation into expected earnings changes so far yet. were still expecting them to make a little below the broader market, so it may take a little longer, but were not expecting meaningful impact. neil: what do yo...
