His escape from washington almost over, president obamas News Conference with myanmar opposition leader, aung san suu kyi, quickly turned to the battle brewing on Immigration Reform. Its way overdue. Weve been talking about it for ten years. The president could be days away from an executive Order Granting relief to millions of undocumented immigrants. Hes acted to defer deportations for children brought to the u. S. Illegally. Now sources tell cnn the president is expected to extend the policy to the undocumented parents of the socalled dreamer children. Plus the undocumented parents of children born in the u. S. And focus on deporting criminal Illegal Immigrants. Insisting republicans in congress have failed to act, the president said he will. Thats going to happen. Thats going to happen before the end of the year. Leaders in the soontobe Gopcontrolled Congress are warning mr. Obama to back down. Were going to fight the president tooth and nail if he continues down this path. Wed like for the president to recognize the reality that he has the government that he has, not the one he wishes he had. Other republicans are backing up that threat with talk of impeachment. Impeachment would be a consideration. White house Officials Say the president will gladly rip up his executive order if Congress Passes a bill. The minute they pass a bill that i can sign, that fixes our immigration system, then any executive actions i take, are replaced. Other fights are looming over the keystone ill pipeline and the president s climate deal with china. Standing next to the president , myanmars democratic icon, aung san suu kyi, quipped, mr. Obama may want to stay on the road. Im sorry the president cant get away from all this. I know. And a senior white house official told me at this point theyre cautioning reporters that not all of the details have been briefed to the president that he has not reviewed the final recommendations from his administration on immigration. But that the general details of the plan are well known inside the white house. In the words of this one senior white house official, this is not like the Academy Awards where they open up the envelope and everybody is surprised. Jim acosta, thanks for the update. A lot going on, but really two big issues, lets bring if our team, cnn political analyst and editor in chief of the daily beast, mr. Jon avalon and republican pollster and president and ceo of the polling company, miss kelli ann conway. Great to see you. The big issue on the table, immigration, kelli ann, let me start with you. The idea of here in this new wave, new enthusiasm of cooperation, the president saying im going it alone. Lets see what happens and im going to go it alone on an issue that i know is particularly sensitive, anchor babies, explain what this means to the republican majority . Well first it means that president obama would be the open guy left in washington who did not assimilate the results of the election a couple of weeks ago, chris and hes going back on his own word and the request offal many of the red state democrats to slow down, to not state publicly that hes going to play the lone ranger on big issues, even harry reid yesterday said he would prefer the president wait at least until december 11th, which is when the government will run out of money to act alone on the executive action. I think its selfish of the president. Because i think you can lay Mary Landrieus loss at his feet if she loses in a couple weeks. Because hes doing things that are very nonlouisiana and hes making it difficult for a democrat to run on their own and not for obamas third term. Which none of them wan to run for in 2016. John, why are you laughing . I think the concern for Mary Landrieu is probably a little disingenuous from kellyannes standpoint. This is a president who has taken a fairly novel interpretation of the Election Results and say look, im liberated from the obligation of election. I was restraining myself in trying to defend a lot of the red state dems. Theres a cost to when parties dont have people in the opposition territory. I. E. The lack of red state dems means the Democratic Party gets more left. But the fact hes doing this against the advice of harry reid, in advance of a filibuster potential shutdown, thats a big deal. This is while president may be untethered. This is a president who runs the risk of poisoning the well with the reset with congress. Maybe if the party had been more left they wouldnt have made their base feel so disenfranchised. They would have come out and vote and he wouldnt be in this situation. Kellyanne, one thing that may make this make sense from a political perspective, do you think theres any chance that the republicans will do anything between now and the end of the year, waiting for them to take their seats, waiting for the full majority. Do you think this is an effort to make something happen between now and the end of the year . Thats a great question for president obama. Because actually we have a new congress thats about to be seated. If he wants to ram things through in lame duck, that sounds typical behavior. However the republicans can do something, they can put a bill on the president s desk. I think you will find them doing that. If i were the president , i would feel emboldened that i can actually have a role back in washington. Because there were hundreds of business that passed the congress and went to die on harry reids desk. That wont happen now, the senator, Mitch Mcconnell is the majority leader. Bills will reach the president s desk. So chris, the question is, why cant he just wait for the democratic process to take its course . We dont live in a monarchy for a reason and think this is all about his legacy. All about his legacy. John, you may want to laugh. But i think its all about his legacy. Thats bogus, lets just drop that. I once knew you as a republican, but anyway ill take my side here. The fact is that this is all about legacy. What fits between the semi colons in a wikipedia entry and his legacy, i think its selfish for him to do that. Lets move on to something less contentious, obama care. Just kidding. Inflammatory comments made by a consultant on the original bill for the Affordable Care act. Jonathan gruber. Last year he told a group of students about how the lack of transparency in the bill helped pass it. Listen. A law that said Healthy People that are going to pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed. Just like people transparent lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. Basically call it the stupidity of the American Voter, whatever, but basically that was critical to get the thing to pass. John this is exactly what republicans have been decrying about the bill. Hes admitting that they made it more abstruse to get it passed. Wow. This is a big deal. This particular ontape thing will be used by the republicans to say, see we were right. You had to pass the bill before you could see what was in it. It could have implications with the Supreme Court so this is a big deal, making the rounds in conservative media. It deserves wider attention. It is going to be a major talking point Going Forward it doesnt unring the bill of the aca. I think it shows that the republicans had a very narrow window in which republicans had the vote. 29 several died, a couple retired. Most of them no longer have their seats. I think the way the electorate looks at this is simple. This mission is a very, this should be looked at as a nonpartisan issue. This admission is that we had to fudge the numbers, we had to shade the truth in order to get it passed, because what people fear is true. Thats why i think you have to be careful. Even this guy, arguing he was the architect, not the architect, what his role was, i think theres a lot there. I think hes been given a lot of credit right now. But its not about him saying numbers were fudged. He says, in the salesmanship of it. Youre right about the timing of the votes, no question they had to rush it through. But they emphasized the cost savings because that appealed to people. Because they didnt care about the idea of insuring the uninsured. So it was about emphasis. Not lying about numbers, kellyanne. I said fudging. If you go back, Doug Elmendorf at the cbo discounted what they said in july of 2009. President obama said its going to save money. Bob elmendorf said no thats not true. Oregon, blue state, hardly has any enrollees, but theyve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on their website. Its about bending a longterm cost curve. Because we pay more per gdp. The enrollment figures are down as of this week. I think the aca. But the story is yet to be told on the aca. This is a very damaging thing for democrats new york city question. The whole argument was they made it supercomplicated in order to get it passed and it sounds like hes admitting it was part of the strategy. There was skin in part of passing this law. John avalon and Kellyanne Conway thanks so much for being here. New review shows shocking blunder after blunder gave white house fence jumper Omar Gonzales access to the white house. Just the tip of the iceberg in the department of Homeland Securitys new indepth review. Michelle kosinski has more. Its incredible to read. What we have is a summary of the report on what happened that night. Every couple of lines details another lapse, what is supposed to be some of the best security in the world. There were the big problems, you mentioned communications. There was a wrong setting on the radio system that made it so that the joint Operations Center couldnt cut through the radio traffic. Officers couldnt even hear what was going on. And then there were specific problems, like the officer with the dog was on his personal cell phone. Not listening to his radio. So he didnt even know anything was going wrong until he saw another officer run by his vehicle. Just seems like everything conspired to make for a problem. Even the landscaping outside the white house. Officers couldnt see over the bushes, they didnt think it was possible for somebody to run right through them as this fencejumper did. One officer assumed that the doors to the wous were locked. Of course, they were not. Officers, because they werent trained well enough didnt know the layout of the interior of the white house. Inside the alarm was turned off and the officer at the door wasnt big enough to take down the fencejumper. It just reads like a tragic comedy of errors. But the secret service says its working on all of these problems. Alisyn . It does read like a keystone cops plot. Its incredible the details that have come out. Thanks so much for outlining them. Rumors of the death of the head of isis were greatly exaggerated. A new audio appearing to be the voice of the isis leader, abu backer al baghdadi. Intelligence Officials Say the fact that they do not see him in this tape, however, may be significant. Maybe that means he was wounded. Maybe it means the tape is dated. Theyre not sure. Thats not all of the isis news, now the terror group is making money of its own. Its own money. Theres also word of a possible alliance between isis and al qaeda. So theres a lot going on there. Arwa damon has the story. Is the leader of isis out of hiding . Days after he was reportedly wounded, perhaps even killed in an air strike, an audio message purportedly of Abu Al Baghdadi released by the group on social media in the message he calls the u. S. Led coalition terrified, weak and powerless and calls upon his followers to erupt volcanoes of jihad everywhere. U. S. Air strikes in syria have killed dozens of isis militants and are taking aim at the Al Qaedalinked khorasan group. Targeting one top operative. But al baghdadi deemed the Coalition Air power a failure. The terrorist leader pointed to president obamas plan to send more troops, under the claim they are advisers. Urging fighters to battle the tyrant and their soldiers. And this, u. S. Officials believe isis and the Al Qaedalinked group al neuews news ra it coul be a dangerous sign of alliances to come. We certainly are focused mostly on isil at this time. But well be tracking this closely. As the United States prepares to send 1500 additional military personnel to iraq, the nations top defense officials reiterated u. S. Military personnel will not be engaged in a ground combat. But Officials Say, iraq will need 80,000 of its own troops to recapture territory it has lost to isis. Leaving the door open for greater u. S. Involvement. Im not predicting at this point that i would recommend that those forces in mosul and along the border would need to be accompanied by u. S. Forces, but were certainly considering it. Not entirely surprising that general dempsey would be in fact be considering that. He and others know only too well that the battlefield in iraq is incredibly unpredictable and that all options need to always be on the table. Also vital at this point is going to be for the u. S. To implement a cohesive syria strategy. As much as america may wish it were not the case, iraq and syria are inextricably intertwined. Chris . It seems undeniable, arwa. A lot of news this morning, lets get you to mick for the headlines. We havent talked about ebola in a while. Were going to talk about it again now. Because it is making its way back into the u. S. Weve learned that a surgeon infected with the virus while working with the sick in syria sierra leone will be flown to the university of Nebraska Medical Center for treatment. Hes likely going to arrive tomorrow. The unidentified man was born in sierra leone, but is a legal resident of the u. S. Prosecutors have added terrorism to the charges against suspected pennsylvania cop killer eric frein. He is already facing Death Penalty for allegedly killing state trooper Bryan Dickson and wounding another. Charges were upgraded after freins apparent motive was revealed. He told police he wanted to change the government and carry out the attack to wake people up. Frein was captured after a 48day manhunt in northeast pennsylvania. Israeli police are easing restrictions at the temple mount. Muslims of all ages are being allowed to pray again today. Men under 50 had been kept out following violence flareups in the recent weeks. The decision to reopen it comes after secretary of state john kerry met with regional leaders, he said both israel and the palestinians agreed to deescalate tensions over the jerusalem holy site. Interesting here nba commissioner adam silver advocating the legalization of Sports Betting. In an oped in the New York Times, commissioner silver said the u. S. Should allow gambling on sports with regulation in place to keep it safe and legal. Right now, betting on the nba is only legal in viva las vegas. Silvers oped comes a week before a federal judge is expected to rule on new jerseys efforts to bring Sports Betting to its struggling casinos and racetracks. Very interesting. Think thats a very interesting thing to do. Bring it out of the shadows. Regulate it, make it legal. Manage it. Everybody is doing it anyway. So Sports Betting isnt legal . Hello, new jersey. You make it is a a joke. Why would you think its illegal. Its all over the place. You have espn and all the sports people, giving you analysis for your fantasy games. Sports books are all over line. s fantasy. What happens in the leagues . Do people wage in those . I dont know. Its one of the most obvious and open secrets. Adam silver taking this on is very ambitious, because it plays into this puritanical notion of what happens in the country and he was so squeaky clean of how he handled the problem with the clippers. The problem is where does the money go . Is it going to be like the lottery where its supposed to go to education and good things . Theyre going to have to set up procedures and strategy and all of that. This is one of those deals, whoa, if we make it legal, a lot more people will do it. Its already everywhere. Ive got to call my bookie. Lets get over to meteorologist Indra Petersons keeping track of the latest forecast for us. Its officially winter. People are shoveling snow behind you. Were talking about buffalo, you can see off of the lake, talking about lakeeffect snow. Theyre hardly the only ones dealing with it. Several inches did fall around the region. Keep in mind were going to be talking about that around boston today. Take a look at the satellite. You can see the wave making its way through. Boston could actually see about an inch of snow today. It looks like new york city just south of there, they were hoping for the first flurries, you get another shot as soon as monday. A couple of systems out there. First thing to note its cold, right . We know all the way to the pacific northwest, we have a threat for icing today. But were talking about 30s even into the northeast. So 30s out there as well and down to the south, right now dallas is only 29 degrees. With the chill its been here for sometime. Heres the problem there are two domes of High Pressure expected. So the second one is making its way in right behind this one. So yes, we are reinforcing the cold air even as we go through the weekend. Heres the temperatures you can see, they are now well below normal and staying that way. Even as we go through saturday. Sunday, monday, tuesday same story. Nothing is changing. Heres why, the first dome of High Pressure, but the next system thats in the rockies today, take a look what happens by saturday. Youre talking about snow in through the midwest. Eventually this guy making its way into the northeast.
