They were working together. Today. She was the vice chair under bernanke since 2010. She helped crack the policies inraft the place. To some extent its like ome bernanke version 2. 0 and shes going to be very very focused on employment in the United States and what policies the fed is going to actually keep in to place to foster employment and also has to really be careful be about inflation.

We are all going to relax. Take a chill pill. Ji now to immigration and a proposal that twiggered a fight tri inside the part. Jeff, good morning. Good morning, anthony. The debate was largely held behind closed doors at a gop w its s retreat. Its spilling out as republicans grapple over how to move forwardenate s that could alienate voters. Tive the president hasnt ruled out the action on the issue. Ine in a town hall friday the president expressed optimism there could be an Immigration Reform reform breakthrough this year but not without what he sees as essential to a deal. We should make sure that at the end of the day, people are are able to become citizens. We dont want a situation in which we have two categories of people in this country. Ies reporter there was a gop call to action. House Speaker John Boehner is quoted saying its important to act on Immigration Reform. We will address it in a step by step common sense fashion. A he unveiled his principles for immigration, tighter border fash security and legal stats. The principles do not include th citizenship. According to a recent gallup poll, 3 of americans see Immigration Reform as a top priority. For some republicans, its c important when it comes to part broadening the reach of the party.

How House Republicans move forward may depend on gop. O Jeff Sessions called the currentd Immigration Reform legislation aform bad idea in a recovering economy.

Theres plenty of politics to talk about tomorrow on face the nation. Fa it includes House Majority eric cantor and president obamas chief white house staff. S she says she wont ever return to italy. Now, amanda knox may have no ow choice. An atallitalian cord ruled her guilty. Legal analyst is here with whats next in the knox case. Good morning. Good morning. Did this guilty pa reinstatement, i should say, of a guilty verdict surprise you . I think it surprised most of did us in the United States. It did not surprise people in in italy. T one of the things about public opinion, in this particular case is we have had a collective in the United States of feeling about amanda knox. Ed state a feeling as much as there is much intellectual ability to say the l evidence was really faulty evidence there isnt really much evidence. In italy, theres a great itly defense of the family of the victim and defense of the italian judicial system. They dont have double iously m jeopardy. This is tried multiple times. Le jeopa three times. As double jeopardy is not a concept three within the italian judicial system. What that means is that you cannot be tried twice for the itali same crime. Em. However, one of the things, c again, that we forget in the same discussion about all of this is amanda knox was convicted beforeda knox she was acquitted. This is really in essence a reinstatement of that first conviction. Was there new evidence in this trial . Its the same evidence. Same i didnt examine all the th evidence in detail like in the etail first place. Theres a tiny speck of blood on a tin the knife of amanda knox, not the victim and its found in another apartment. The evidence is not new. Shes been vocal saying i wont go back. What about extradition . We have a treaty with italy. Will she be forced to go back . Thats the ultimate political the question. She must be mindful. Stay where she is. Sh she should stay in the state of washington. She should never go out of the washingt country. Right now, the case is going up on appeal. We expect that final Appellate Court that sent it down for retrial to begin with they are logically going to convict her. Logi we would be shocked to say cked t anything if they acquit her. They do not have to send her o not back. Send its a political question. I have heard too many experts eard too say of course we are not going cour to send her back, its not that simple at all. Traditio we have extradition tweetreaties with all kinds of countries. Going while looking for Edward Edward snowden, we are not going to say make a this time, we are not sending someone back. Right. Right. Well see what happens. Its interesting. Thanks. Thank you. A weekend winter storm is bringing a mess from kansas to mess michigan today.
