Vetting, by making these decisions on the fly, by making sure that they dont count. >> schumer is right that the white house seem to be caught off guard by some of these allegations but top aides to the president tell me they went through a series of performance reports and interviews for jackson as the white house doctor and they were glowing reports from men president barack obama, administration officials believe the real story is that democratn someone they call a good man. >> shannon: the o...

A lot of folks saying perhaps there should have been better vetting before this nomination was sent up here in terms of democrats, some of them are taking this as an opportunity to go after the white house. senate democratic leader chuck schumer says he doesnt think there was proper vetting of dr. jacksons nomination so schumer says lawmakers will do the vetting themselves. the top democrat on the relevant committee also talked about the nomination earlier today. >> headline is we have postponed...

Another dumb move on your part. >> bill: does he go through or not? some of these democrats. >> he goes through by one vote. >> bill: you are saying he gets approval? >> he gets approval. i think heidi heitkamp has understood how dumb a move chuck schumer had put on her and she said she is going to vote for him. i think she will and i think that will put him through by one vote. >> bill: if he were to be denied leading the negotiations with new york how does it go across the country? >> it puts ...

The three of those beautiful portraits combined. do you remember this? have you seen this? my only hope is maybe they will base it off of his time with donald trump when he had the silent scream. do you remember that? >> i do not remember that. >> look. he doesnt move at all. see that? so we were thinking, and this is the end of my fall back speech. if we went more of an edvard munch vibe and just channel that, maybe that would be something. >> id be behind that. id go to that art gallery. just ...

The three of those portraits combined. my only hope, from you seen this? my only hope is maybe they will base it off of his time with donald trump when he had the silent scream. do you remember that? you dont remember -- look. he doesnt move at all. see that? so we were thinking, and this is the end of my fallback speech, if we went more of an edward munch vibe. >> if you could just stretch -- >> and just channel and channel that. maybe that would be something. >> i would be behind that. i would...

This has shifted in the last couple years. president obama when he was senator obama in 05 on video, he wanted to e-verify completely illegal immigration strong borders. >> shannon: republicans and democrats dont seem to want to do it. >> everything on the left especially shifted towards identity politics for the democrats used to care, they give the same talking points. bill clinton, schumer, pelosi. middle class blue-collar workers for these care about wages for the average person. theyve give...

Going to see this disagreement. it is really confusing allies and adversaries, and theres a lot of discomfort on the hill. the leaders, paul ryan and mitch mcconnell -- the leaders were briefed in both parties, the gang of eight. but the fact is both schumer and pelosi has said this is not a strategy. one strike is not a strategy. and importantly, john mccain in his statement says, while praising this action against the chemical targets -- and he was waiting to hear more about the targeting -- h...

After he told him no one told him to stop investigations. and the media reported that officials determined that comey leaked four memos. at least four we know about with classified information and i think its clear that comey has a credibility problem. the other thing is clear it was one of the few issues in washington that both democrats and republicans agree on. hes been criticized by the legal community for leaking sensitive information. and organizations promoting good government found comey...

Billion over the next several years for border security including fences and walls. that was an offer made by mr. schumer. the president said he wanted a love bill. thats what it was. unfortunately, the republicans added on some killer amendments, eliminating certain kinds of immigration programs that have been in place for a long time, such as family reunification. keep in mind that if that had passed, mrs. trumps mother and father could not reunite with their daughter. so it is just crazy. the...

Maybe not thrilled but heavy enough. one thing for that thing. >> they be done some of that already. in this omnibus spending bill, theres a sliver of the wall here and there. >> theres no daca there. >> theres noda ca and not really a border wall in the concrete sense. >> both sides know what they want. the moderate and progressives in this country and most people want something done for the daca young people who were brought here young and most people are for them. and the wall thing hey, is a...
