Congress here trying to reach a deal, to reopen the government, after the clock ran out on funding friday the shutdown coying with oneyear anniversary canceled trip to florida to stay in washington until a compromise we discuss with Mick Mulvaney and democratic senator chris coons trying to make a deal, mike emanuel with the latest. To a there are no visible signs of progress in ending this shutdown in fact things have gotten personal, with the Senate Majority leader blasting his counterpart Chuck Schumer. President would not give him everything he wants on issue of illegal immigration and one afternoon in the oval office. Republicans quick to brands schumer shutdown democrats blocked a government extension late friday night would have provided 6 year extension in Health Insurance to estimated nine million children democrats held out for a deal in socalled dreamers young people brought to this country illegally by parents now sound like adding to their demands. At this point we feel very, very strongly about the issues, not just dreamers but opioids pensions, not funding the military, on a cr basis, and we feel the American People are on our side. Aggravated after the they passed the extension rejected a dustup on house floor taking aim at schumer. Majority of the house the majority of the senate have voted to prevent shutdown keep the government open. Bring the the poster to the chair for his observation. Soon shutdown down will get real if by monday morning there is no deal, and much federal workforce is on furlough. Chris. Not gooded if arguing over posters, mike emanuel from capitol hill, thank you joining me white house budget she have Nick Mulvaney in charge of glementing the Government Shutdown director welcome. Thank you for having me. Describe the extent of the shutdown, in terms of personnel and programs. Sure, as of yesterday, federal agencies started sending out furlough notices there is three categories of employees those who will come to work on monday, were those will not come to work monday and actually a Smaller Group will come to work on monday for four hours to help shut things down leave as well went out ed, and over the course of the couple days, we will start to see agencies trying to implement shutdown plans which is going to be different than 201 as we try and work to keep more agencies open in fact i talked to the president late i guess friday night he said work hard keep as many folks at work keep as many agencies open as we can, so that is the shutdown plan that we are implementing. Where will we see the effects first, regular americans see effects where the biggest effects. The effects wont be as many visible as 2013 keep in mind 2013, only way i can describe it Obama Administration chose to wpi iz weaponize shutdown went out of way to hurt more people be more visible the baishdz in front of world war ii memorial to keep vets away you wont see that this year the National Parks will be open, the trash wont get picked up if you are talking about furloughing 800,000 people. It hurts you asked what will people see if you work you there will see dramatic difference most americans wont see deference airport on monday tsa about there military still not getting paid that is wrong, but in terms of what you will see will not be as dramatic as you saw in 2013. Lets talk how we get out of this mess, there are new reports, that Senate Republicans are going to offer a deal a three week cr not four week cr would last continuing resolution until february 8 disaster release funding money for chip childrens Health Insurance is that true . And what about dhaka. I am not a couple Different Things not familiar with the specific deal i know on the table a four week i have heard what you mentioned the three weeks i know there is a separate disaster supplemental funding bill sitting over in the senate, i have not heard about those two things getting married together you my want to ask the senator about that, the fact of the matter is, we probably need at least, three weeks to try and negotiating dhaka lets be clear the president bants to resolve dhaka he would have taeb it away entirely six months ago chose to give congress the six months to expires first week of march to fix it unfortunately congress waited to go very last day to do that we are very interested in getting redacto worked out. You are calling this we heard saw in open, the schumer shutdown the fact is you only had 46 republicans willing to vote, for this congressional continuing resolution so even if there hadnt been a democratically filibuster you didnt have the majority needed to pass the cr. All the more reason is not this on republicans in white house the control of house and senate. Majority got majority light on one defensibility we face. Because of democrats you got a majority you didnt get 60 votes. The point do you not have your own house in order you only have 46 republicans. If you had nine, 10, 12 where are the democrats chris who say back home they want to work in a bipartisan fashion they want to work with republicans they want the reach across the ill where were do haves folks last week only five democrats voted for a bill they like that is not loose sighting democrats have voted they like the chip program voted they like dlaig Obamacare Tax program like funding government always have do not o oppose the bill pure politics where are democrats say one thing back home do another what we are focusing on. You only had 46 republicans. If you had 10 or 15 democrats still failed i think your point is fair but right now until you have at least nine we cannot open the government. You dont have 46 republicans, either. You dont have 51 republicans either. Right but, again, short of nine what difference does it make without nine democrats this government is not opening. Back in 2013, whether republicans insisted on shutting down the government because they wanted to remove all funding of obamacare, and they did it 16 days privately since trump placed the responsibility squarely here he is. Problems start from the top they have to get from the top, the president is the leader. And hes got to get everybody in a room hes got to lead. If president obama, was responsible then get everybody in the room and lead, isnt President Trump responsible now . Couple Different Things actually shutdown in 2016 not about getting rid of obamacare 2013 excuse me was about delaying the individual mandate we just got rid of on tax deal, but compared 2013, 2016 how two president s have acted, i went through the middle 2013 i think i was on your show during that shutdown will look you go in eye till president obama wanted that shutdown to weapon eyweaponize it to hurt republicans want that down in this president worked really, really hard to prevent shutdown we had folks in white house several times mr. Schumer there he is twifl engaged yesterday calling people trying to get government open. He didnt have a meeting a bipartisan leader congressional leaders yesterday does have one on schedule for today. He had one thursday not yesterday we can split hairs all the time. Happened on friday night. We knew was also coming we had a bipartisan meeting with senators several for several times, in fact i think several meetings leading into o shutdown this president i dont think anybody could say that this president wants a shutdown, you could not say same about president obama in fact i think he actually did want it. You blame democrats for holding the government hostage now, but back in 2013, you supported holding the government hostage on this question of object taxpayer take a look. We believe what we did was right for the right reasons did it for kids here piet not recognize that now we really believe this was worth having the fight. Why was that legitimate then the right reason to have a fight not legitimate now. Fair question here is the answer they were asking us to vote for something in 2013 that we did not like in fact we had principled opposition to they were asking us to vote to fund obamacare, something very difficult for republicans to do we wouldnt vote for it let me finish it here we are today, this is a bill that democrats support, they are o moving a bill they dont oppose in order to make a political point significant difference. I think a debating point the fact is, that they are a budgery implications to dhaka if you are going to deport 800,000 people going to cost money, you shut down the government, in 2013, you republicans because you didnt like obamacare you wanted to shut down government again in 2015, case didnt like planned parenthood they are willing to shut down want solution to dhaka you can say one thing in the bill one thing what is not in in the bill the point is both i then and them now are kwilg to shut down, the government, because they support or oppose a policy, same issue. Go back look at 2013, 2015 a long discussion about another day there were many, many times the house actually voted, to open the government, voted many times on many different packages that would have opened the government, in fact i i remember voting for stuff i didnt like so government could open a breakdown in the senate that at that time under harry reid i do this a major differences between now 2013 in deal on senate is type would have worked in 2013 did work in 2013, 2015 a bipartisan measure the bill at house passed, is the oldfashioned it were bipartisan bill keeps government open for some reason dysfunction with Senate Democrats so dramatic not working almost as if so beholden to left withining they cant give a president a victory on keeping the government open. I want to take you i want to talk about this i want to take you back to big meeting that was held on friday, in the with white house between President Trump and Chuck Schumer senator zplakt sources tell me this put on screen churm raised full funding of a wall more than 18 billion dollars, full increase in defense spending around 80 billion dollars they say white houses chief of staff kelly called back said to schumer to be a liberal. True. Put that list back up i can respond to each in term. Full full funding. No, mr. Schumer offered the president was authorizations for funding not an appropriation, i know that is deep down in weeds for 230eks dont live in washington, d. C. , but the difference between authorization and appropriation is like night and day. There is already authorizations to builted a wall on the southern broader Chuck Schumer vutdz for in 2006 hasnt been builtmen never proeptsdz never funded same deal Chuck Schumer offered saturday. Focus on that that is important, yesterday, you went after churm, hard, on this issue, take a look. Chuck schumer had the goal to look at president and say i am giving you everything, you asked for the wall, and then whether pressed admitted to he of these do it the type of negotiations that mr. Schumer has been engaged in with president you have to ask ours one point, does it even become possible to continue to work with somebody like that. This is not implicated you raised a new issue schumer staff says specifically in response to that, that you are not telling the truth. They say, they say, that he offered not one year funding what was suggested yesterday, but full funding 18 to 20 billion dollars in year one putting that on table not the offer i should say they were willing to discuss that you guys walked away from that, if you got full funding for the wall that would be deal of the century, why not take yes for an answer. It would be the deal of the century because that was not the offer the offer again, dont want to split hairs. I understand. Authorization, appropriation 37 ask ask mr. Schumers office if they suffered a to appropriate 20 billion dollars, go to next thing on your list, by the way, about full funding for defense, not true. It was offering something that was in the budget request from fy18 i ohio i happened to right that the question the discussion is about the nbaa he levels slightly higher mr. Schumer not only voted for taking credit for back home fully funding militarily wont give that higher figure a lower figure. I dont play a role as negotiate let me do it for a moment if shuler says i am no the talking authorization i am talking about appropriation. 18 to 20 billion dollars, right now, you can build your wall, there are more democrats saying that including gutierrez would president accept that in time not negotiating with you either go back to request the very beginning that we happy to talk about dhaka resolve dhaka what is part of dhaka deal look like from the Administration Perspective number one, the southern broader the fence, security gets fully fund it had wall the 20 billion dollars. Also deal with chain migration with visa lottery system we deal with you seem to be suggesting, that even if you got the 20 billion, that wouldnt be enough. Again those are four things tour principles asked for in discussion mr. S schumer officers none of that that is not basis for an agreement. Final question in that regard, if you got the 20 billion dollars, would you make the deal. Again i am not going to negotiate on behalf of the president , that would certainly cover one of the four things we have asked for. Final question this is nfl championship weekend over, under how long is this going to last. A couple Different Things, i think two different answers, i think there is a chance it gets solved before monday i really do believe that heart there was interest by some in the party to deny the president sort of victory lap of the anniversary inauguration a chance to talk about success of the tax by many success of the economy jobs, and i think if they get over that, there is a chance this thing gets done before 9 00 monday morning folks come to work. C if not. If that doesnt happen could go several days other democrats want to see president give state of the union during the shutdown. That is more than several days that is january 30. Nine or 10 days. Could go that far. You have to ask Senate Democrats they could open this day if they wanting to. You know what is a pr segue to next segment thanks for time in this very difficult week obviously we will follow the negotiations. Thank you.

Chris republicans including President Trump says democrats are holding the government hostage over their demands for dreamers the young immigrants brought to this country as children, who fade possible deportation in marcher. Dplat senator chris coons part of a Bipartisan Group trying to find their way out off the shutdown welcome back to Fox News Sunday. The president tweets sent want this morning put up on screen great to see how hard republicans are fighting for our military and safety at the border, the dems just want with Illegal Immigrants to pour into our nation unchecked stalemate continues republicans should go to 51 nuclear option. And vote on real longterm budge no crs continuie resolution. An interesting a wooet in middle of bipartisan negotiations making progress senator mcconem in the end will have much more to say about senate than the president should i think in the last segment you ran a clip from then, private sector leader donald trump 201 says during as shutdown the president should lead the president s responsibility i think he should instead of throwing tweets from the white house pull together four leaders of the house and senate on bipartisan basis today, and negotiate, i spent all day yesterday, not going to the floor not going on cable news not denouncing republicans but meeting with them listening to them with a small group that introduce you grew did i end of the day listening to each other to degree of and fixing underlying problems left us with so many up addressed priorities stacked up last couple months. I am hopeful. Lets talk about meetings they had a meeting the president Chuck Schumer on friday it ended up maybe making thing worse not better i want to ask you about a point, that i pressed, with director mulvaney. Did schumer put on the table 20 billion dollars full funding for the wall in year one, not over if so to mulvaneys point was it authorization . Or was it real money and appropriation . Wasnt in the meeting i dont know exactly, but from talking to leader schumer my impression is reluckantly offered full funding of military and full funding to build to wall or system never going to build a 2000 file concrete wall. You are saying authorization was appropriation willing to give you real money to build a wall. I think he had to explain that difference to the president about full appropriation year one versus authorization and commitment to appropriation the real
