"risk and reward" starts now. >> will we have time, more than 10 hours to visit a complicated till to review the bill? will it be available to us in the public more than 10 hours before we have to vote for it? i would ask rhetorically of my friends the majority leader when his bill is ready isn't is a going to be posted for six days prior to debate or markup? are the american people, our doctors, our nurses, our patience, are the cancer care groups going to get a chance to see it? i doubt it. it's not what it seems like. >> the reality check is failed for the democrats. obamacare reform has been six years in the making. the details of what the republicans are going to do well-known in advance that somehow the democrats claim they were blindsided that the new senate g.o.p. health care bill was on the senate budget committees web site at 10:30 a.m. eastern time yesterday and yes we are being very exact her

[cheering] five charlie, kat, tyrus, thank you.ut speaker pelosi under fire from democrats and after more humility net losses, "watters world" debates. stay. the late chris kyle. how often do you smoke weed? >> every day all day. jets * how awful do you get high? >> i'm always vibrating on a high level. welcome to "watters world." i'm jesse watters. democrats in disarray. the democrats plushed $24 million down the toilet in the georgia special election this week. we know money can't buy you love. now we know it also can't buy you a congressional seat. president trump said we'll win so much we'll get sick of wing. but the question is, when will the democrats get sick of losing? left-wing celebrities who played a big role in the georgia special election are leading your party over the cliff. here is johnny depp delivering what he considers to be political analysis. when was the last time an actor assassinated a president? i want to clarify, i'm not an actor. i lie for a living. it's been a while, and maybe it's time. jesse: depp was forced into apologizing. democrats, do you thin

a bell when nancy pelosi said pass it before you know it senate and they went ahead and put this on the american people. by the way, back to ohio for a moment, it is about -- our tax payer dollars would not go to fit for it he is not a big fiscal republican and in ohio, he is leaving in 20 counties which will lose their access. they left wisconsin and indiana. >> marie: at one of the reasons they left, the uncertainty that's been created by the congressional process. it's also about my care. other things i'm not totally blaming it on that, but the uncertainty around this process. the deadline saying vote by a july 4th or move on to tax reform. that is adding to the uncertainty in the health care market. when you talk about things like the opioid crisis, i was home in ohio last week, i talked to a lot of people about this. a huge majority in some places, getting treatment in the opioid crisis, get it through medicaid. if we are willing to face that outcome i bring that down, i think a lot of voters are going to be uncomfortable. >> david: by the numbers, i get it, it's a great headli

all up. >> and nancy pelosi stares down her critics. >> have your fun. i love the arena. >> the top stories sourced by the best reporters now. >>> welcome to "inside politics." i'm john king. to our viewers in the united states and around the world, thanks for sharing your sunday. a lot to talk about. driving a constant anger in president trump and constant effort by aides to find some way to calm it down. >> there has been no obstruction. there has been no collusion. there has been leaking by comey, but no collusion, no obstruction and everybody agrees to that. >> plus misleading statements. another reminder that truth and transparency seem to rank low among this president's priorities. >> the paris agreement would have cost america millions of lost jobs and billions and billions of dollars. they say it's nonbinding. like hell it's not binding. >> senate republicans plan to vote this week on their plan to replace obamacare but are well short in the hunt for 50 votes. >> i cannot support a piece of legislation that takes insurance away from millions of americans and tens of thousand

pelosi saying essentially this is even worse than the version the house came up with, that is to be expected i guess -- >> all marketing on their part unfortunately. neil: the congressional black caucus as you know, sir, eschewed a meeting with trump officials on any subject. >> unfortunate. neil: no one wants to be a co-star in this reality show. what did you make of that? >> really unfortunate. here is what we have. we have the president of the united states willing to meet with a powerful group of congress members to find ways to improve the quality of life of their citizens. the answer can't be no. if you do, don't likeç the direction of the policies of the president, or you don't like the president, it is not about him. it is about the policy positions that are represented in the administration that could bring relief to citizens. i brought in over 80 presidents and chancellors of historically black colleges and universities and their ask was for year-round pell grant. guess what they received before they left? basically they received affirmation president was willing to rest

allegation. and nancy pelosi spoke with critics who say it's time for her to go. >>> we begin with another major story unfolding this hour. senate republicans just unveiled their obamacare replacement plan and admit they are still short the votes to pass it. conservatives aren't thrilled because the plan falls way short of a full obamacare repeal. moderates are mad because among other things the senate plan slashes medicaid funding for the elderly and poor. and at the moment, contains no money to help with the opioid epidemic. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell calls the new framework a good start. while he says changes are welcome, he wants to fast track a final vote next week. >> through dozens of meetings open to each and every member of the conference, we've had the opportunity to offer and consider many ideas for confronting the obamacare status quo. we debated many policy proposals. we considered many different viewpoints. in the end, we found that we share many ideas about what needs to be achieved and how we can achieve it. >> the president said the house bill was mean.

trump. and democrats are pointing the finger at nancy pelosi. i think you'd have to be an idiot to think we could win the house with pelosi at the top. look who is here. charles hurt fox news contributor. >> good morning. stuart: they're gunning for-- forgive me for the expression, they're going after nancy pelosi. >> she's been at the helm of that party 24 years, almost a quarter of a century, three, four lifetimes when you think about politics. these people get chewed up and she's been through so many catastrophic losses. she is had one or two successful elections in terms of the party as a whole, but a lot of devastating losses. stuart: but, okay. they're going after here as the leader of the party. will some moderate democrats also reject the obstructionist position? will some moderate democrats in the house and senate perhaps switch over and vote for health care reform and vote for tax cuts? >> there's no doubt, you know, you can't beat something with nothing and they have nothing except obstruction. and i think it's a real-- that that is the key question because if all they do is o

house leader nancy pelosi. >> pelosi says they remain united. she was speaking to the press and dismissed reports party has lost confidence in her leadership. listen. >> i always listen to my members, i respect the addition that exists in any caucus it's a part of our life. i'm proud of the unity we've had and frankly my leadership on keeping everybody on fighting the healthcare bill in the house of representatives very proud of our success in defeating it first time. >> nancy pelosi was very defi talked today. she said look i'm here there and there may be people who are not happy about it but i'm going stayer. >> what we talked about with tom fitzgerald whether you like or dislike nancy pelosi that was something she was able to do when they passed the affordable care act getting pretty much her entire caucus on her side there. >> they're trying to lay some of the latest blame on the election at her >>> guys thanks for joining us. >> my pleasure thanks. >> atima i'm going start with you. nancy pelosi does she need to leave the leadership or is she the scapegoat people are using

american policy that rooted clear back into then. by the way we watched as nancy pelosi, as speaker, little bit later as barack obama as president undermined much of this policy that has been established in law. time to put it back in place and -- trish: i am glad you said that i really am. seems as though the left come up with, congressman, a whole another narrative. we have been in the most charitable welcoming people in. we have historically been very strict who comes into this country. it really seems to be something in recent history, call it the last eight years, some with you we feel altruistic enough to welcome, everyone and give them a check. >> democrats want to turn this into welfare state. one way to do that, welcome everybody in the world to put them on welfare that breaks the system down. if the system is broken down, they have opportunity to implement their socialism/communism. that is part of the strategy from the left. we want independent-minded people that carry their own weight and help others. we need immigration, designed to enhance the economic and social, cultural wel
