>>> nancy pelosi was elected a speaker of the house. and marc sandalow wrote about her rise to power in his book "madam speaker: nancy pelosi's life, times, and rise to power". this is from 2008. [applause] >> thank you. i started it yesterday in washington and got out here and did a little t.v. thing this morning. i still have a tie on. it's nice to be here i feel completely overdressed. if i were nancy pelosi i would stop by thinking you will for your leadership. individually in front of cameras. but i am not, so i won't. but have to point out family, my sister-in-law and brother-in-law sarah and bill are here. my bay area relatives. thank you for coming. why write a book on nancy pelosi? i had to think about that for a bit. in my bookshelf as a journalist, it is filled by biographies with absolutely washington people that would love to have read and i would love to have the information in my head but i have no intention of actually reading. washington is filled with fascinating people. nancy pelosi is a very different story. there is

they view nancy pelosi as the establishment person. one person that was very excited about nancy pelosi's speakership, and she's an easy target if you will as donald trump was pointing out on twitter and elsewhere and i've been on 100 calls, there is a common trend where many young students on the left, two things they don't want to see a politician, they are tired of business as usual establishment additional and people being, the past generation of people in power and i had to break to you but that is democrat leadership. joe biden, bernie sanders, elizabeth warren, hillary clinton and nancy pelosi are full of leaders from the past. start them with unaccompanied way to choose from. >> we haven't talked about it o'rourke in two days. >> will they motivate the younger base? will people get excited about a 75-year-old man who was vice president? thank you for your time, appreciate it. the new york times ripped by his former editor for what she calls the paper's and i trump bias? accuracy in media executive director breaks down examples

nancy pelosi is a deal maker. even they think now that pelosi is speaker they have a better opportunity to make a deal. liz: jeff flock is monitoring the impact of the partial government mustdown. >> some people say it's a big dale, others say not so much. hundreds of thousands of federal workers not being paid across the country. 450,000 are working unpaid. at least for now. that includes 41,000 atf and border and derks a agents, border patrol agents and 35,000 irs staff. they will be paid because they are being forced to work and they will eventually get the money. those on furlough, no guarantee they will be paid. the senate will pass a bill saying they should be paid. but the congress would have to pass the bill and the president who have to sign it. and 80% of the national park service. because of the shutdowns at the agricultural department, no usda loans for farmers. no small business administration loans. fha and va loans stopped. federal national parks closed, the smithsonian shut down. the zoo. the marri

so nancy pelosi has it. now, the fact that she has secured the speakership, we enter a new phase of the government shut down. some say there's a bit more hope here now that nancy pelosi has secured her left flank. fended off the left flank of the far left wing of the democratic party who was threatening to vote against her if she included any border wall funding in any of the bills. so that is taken care of. that said, now that she's won the prize, there's been no change in pelosi's position. she's agreed to take up the two spending bills, which you just mentioned later this afternoon. broken down in two parts. one of the spending bills would fund six government agencies. the other would fund the department of homeland security but would include any funding for the border wall. that's a nonstarter on the senate side. mitch mcconnell has said that he will take up no bills in the senate that cannot garner 60 votes in the senate and cannot garner a presidential signature. that doesn't cross the bar. doesn't cro

how does nancy pelosi manage this? >> that's the tight rope that nancy pelosi has to walk. president trump and his administration are giving house democrats a lot to work with when it comes to oversight authority they will have now. the issue for pelosi as she understands obviously her new majority comes largely from voters who wanted democrats to serve as some sort of check on this white house and yet also very aware of not overplaying that hand, of being sober and straight forward and following the facts and not appearing to be politically motivated. when it come to answering criminal investigations, the mueller probe, charges from democrat, he dismisses everything as being political. it's always a political response to these investigations. and it won't be any different with the new investigations that the house democrats bring and he will be able to say look, they're the democrats, this is all politics. he might have an easier case because they all have ds after there names than what he's trying to do in terms of broad brushing everything mueller and the southern distri

pelosi for speaker of the house. >> pelosi. >> she was the only one who voted for nancy pelosi who got any kind of reaction from republicans. she is in complete control of those republicans and commanding their attention and in swatting away their insults. moments later at her swearing in speaker pelosi in her acceptance speech of the speakership announced her legislative strategy for the shutdown. >> we will debate in advance good ideas no matter where they come from, and in that spirit democrats will be offering the senate republican appropriations legislation to reopen government later today. >> joining our discussion now joy reid, msnbc national correspondent and the host of "am joy" weekends on msnbc. joy will have a special town hall event at this very hour tomorrow night with nancy pelosi right here on msnbc at 10:00 p.m. and we're also joined by michelle goldberg. and joy reid, a very impressive day one for nancy pelosi. and what may be -- what may very well be basically a day one of the worst year of donald trump's life. >> you know, it's interesting, lawrence, and you know th

nancy pelosi said it yesterday. the wall street journal, you call that infrastructure, this is from their op-ed this morning. take a gander that senate democrats floated last month. at one trillion, it is a blueprint of trump proportions. of the nextinking hoover dam, it is like the barack obama-nancy pelosi stimulus of 2009. $40 billion in direct federal funding to direct all of america to affordable high-speed internet. 3 billion dollars for charging and refueling stations to a common a collector other green vehicles. unspecified funds for initiatives to preserve and expand affordable housing. a tax credit for up to one dollar per gallon for clean fuel. a tax credit of 2.3 cents per kilowatt hour of clean electricity production. we want to hear from you. do you agree with that kind of infrastructure package? is this the kind of proposal that you want to see the president and democrats come together on? saysall street journal that these provisions are bureaucratic friction -- they call it bureaucratic friction that

nancy pelosi -- "no money for the wall!" it's interesting that it works for both parties in terms of galvanizing the space. >> melissa: in marketing. but at some point it has to be not about marketing and about actual government. i think we are all impacted by various parts of our immigration system having broken down. charlie, when that we haven't talked about yet is the fact that we are almost out of workers in this country at this point. legal workers. you see the unappointment rate has dropped so low, we need agricultural workers. we need a day worker program. that's one of the elements that you were hinting at. that there are just a lot of different things that need to be sorted out. everybody wants it fixed. maybe we disagree on the solution, but one of the things things -- >> harris: we were talking about the swearing ends, excuse me. i'm watching now, that is senator feinstein. of course, charlie, we watched her this summer with the brett kavanaugh confirmation hearings as she brought forth -- >> charlie: there's ted

the democrats are nominating people against nancy pelosi. >> nancy pelosi has a tough job on her hands. not only is she coming into the speakership a little bit weakened by all these democrats who are voting against her -- although some, notably, are breaking their campaign pledges do not vote for her and voting for her today -- she has a progressive wing to her left that is increasingly noisy and increasingly aggressive. she also has these democrats in moderate districts, some of whom did not vote for her. these are people that are not going to be on board with the impeachment agenda at all of the other kind of tricks that the progressives have planned. >> harris: i wrote down what you said because i liked the way you put it -- increasingly noisy on the left. today some of that noise, david, is coming from members of your own party. a democrat in new york who voted for the former nominee, stacey abrams, on the house floor. i don't know if they have enough votes to block nancy pelosi, but ouch! >> there are a number of people who come in the democratic party, have said for a long creat

it's too bad with nancy pelosi what she's done. it's radical democrats, they've become a radicalized part -- they really have. they've become a radicalized party. i actually think they've become a very dangerous party for this country. if you listen to what they're saying, what they're doing, i think they've become a very dangerous, a very, very dangerous party for this country. i think that chuck schumer, sadly, is dominated by the radical left and he's dominated by nancy pelosi. very strongly dominated he can't move. he's a puppet. he's a puppet for nancy pelosi, if you can believe that. but that's what's become, that's what's happening. we're not going to let it happen to our nation and we are not going to allow the radical left to control our borders. if they do, you will see crimes, you'll see drug, you'll see human trafficking like you've never seen ever in the history of our country, you'll every see anything like what you would see. we'll never let the radical left control our borders. thank you very much. thank you. >> are

nancy pelosi is not like that. nancy pelosi is a very tough machined politician. she has no interest in having a friendly conversation with donald trump. and, trump's the guy, he is very happy to talk to you. you want to pick a fight with him? i guarranty you he will spend part of every day here on out finding a way to cause her pain. brian: she is operator. she is not a deep thinker. >> but, people shouldn't underestimate her. she is very effective, very tough operator. the president will have to break her power in order to win. brian: we'll see what happens. we're in a standoff. ainsley: newt gingrich. thank you so much. have a good weekend. brian: no one can break jillian's power and her hold on the news. jillian: absolutely. got that right. an american teenager accused of attacking a sheriff's deputy in the name of isis. he is charged with terrorism. officials say the 18-year-old threw rocks at deputy and threatened him with a knife in mayor cope county, arizona. the deputy shot the teen in self-defense. the fbi says he is home grown violent extremist and a lo

just a short time ago after the president sent nancy pelosi this one. forgive the highlighter. it's the way i keep my notes. but the president is not welcome in the house. again, it's in parliamentary language, but she's basically saying you're disinvited. i can't remember that ever happening where a speaker of the house told the president you can't come up here and give the state of the union address. so now the president has to decide, we don't open the government and she can't get a concurrent resolution before the house, but the house and the senate have to pass concurrent resolutions to authorize a joint session of congress in the house of representatives. so that's what she's blocking as opposed to saying you're not welcome up here. so now the president has to see if he can go to the senate and deliver it or maybe he might deliver it from the oval office or maybe as we were hearing yesterday, he goes to some location outside of washington d.c. and delivers it. the president in his letter to nancy pelosi basically called her bluff on this issue of

nancy pelosi is now peekspeaker. she has been just as firm in saying there will be no money for the wall. she has not moved. the other is what happens as this republican wall starts to crack a little bit? you've seen these two senators, for example, on the house side there are a number of republicans, a small number who voted with the democrats to reopen the government, including will herd, a republican who represents more miles of the u.s./mexico border than any other member of congress. typically in these big fights, the party who is more unified tends to win, and that's where we are going into this meeting this afternoon or this morning, rather. >> garrett haake, live for us on capitol hill. kelly o'donnell at the white house. for more on all of us this let's bring in steve israel, a former democratic congressman from new york. mr. israel has served in democratic leadership positions, was a top ally of nancy pelosi when he headed the committee that helped reelect democrats. . a republican strategist who worked for

that's nancy pelosi, chuck schumer. they have agreed, look, they can get the government open as fast as possible as try to get the paychecks to people. nancy pelosi said that she does not think the state of the union will go forward tuesday because she has to talk to the president and set an agreeable date. for the wall funding, schumer and nancy pelosi seem to say we don't really want to send money for the wall. on the other side of washington, we had the white house pool was called in and president trump said again that he believes they can negotiate an agreement on wall funding sometimes in the next three weeks. if they don't do that, he will declare an emergency at the southern border and executive order will be used to get that funding likely from the military, which of course will be quickly enjoined by the courts. let's bring in chad pergram on this. seems like everybody is on board to get the government back open today or as quickly as possible. but there's still a lot of resistance when it comes to this wall fu

and since nancy pelosi got the votes to be speaker, she has not changed the tune. she has continued to say there is no money for the border wall, and does the white house come to theizati the realization that there is not a break between pelosi and schumer and come to the bargaining table with something else? >> just today, preparing to the t town hall meeting that is going to air tonight on msnbc with joy reid, nancy pelosi talked about the position that mitch mcconnell is in. >> and one of the thing ths tha you talked about yesterday in the acceptance speech for the spe speakership for the second time is the power of congress as a branch of government. and mitch mcconnell your counterpart in the senate has made it clear that even though these were senate bills passed by republicans that he won't put them back on the floor unless the president approves of them, and how do you get around this conundrum if the other half of the first branch of government will only act at the behest of the president? >> well, i think that what mitch mcconnell is doing, and i say it a

nancy pelosi:"it's not the law. everything indicates that a president can be indicted after he is no longer president of the united states."savannah guthrie:"what about a sitting president?" rep. nancy pelosi:"well, the sitting president when he's no longer president of the united states."savannah guthrie:"a president who is in office, could robert mueller come back and say i am seeking an indictment?"rep. nancy pelosi: "i think that's an open discussion. i think that is an open discussion in terms of the law."that wasn't her only jab.pelosi also not denying telling members of her caucus that the wall is a quote 'manhood issue' for trump.rep. nancy pelosi:"i wish that my members had not repeated that outside the room, but there's no justification for this wall. it is not the way to protect our border."c-n-n is told the white house has formally invited congressional leaders back for further talks friday.but expectations for a quick fix remain low...after talks went nowhere this week. kellyanne conway:"nancy pelosi ca

and nancy pelosi is expected to make history again. in a new interview, pelosi is not ruling out that a sitting president can be indicted. what does that even mean? the new congress also makes history with a record number of women serving in congress. it will be the most racially and diverse in american history. >> so this new congress begins today facing a

pelosi nancy pelosi and the codel would not have been in the country when this next pay. it is missed if they were going to go on this trip that the president has now canceled just a half-hour before they were supposed to leave. we appreciate you jumping into the seat they are, bret baier and we will check in with you later and of course we will wath the special report. let's bring back the panel: read and greg speed craig steve. and a good thing to do right n now? preset -- perception is reality these days and if you are traveling around the world and not in d.c. negotiating, it sends a message you are not serious about getting anything done but frankly nancy pelosi made that clear yesterday with her stunt about the state of the union. and it's not the first travel related p.r. she has endured. remember that trip to hawaii over christmas that could have been avoided. again, the stakes are high, dividing government and if you want to show serious about negotiating which i'm not sure she is, then you should probably be here at the negotiating table. greg we don't have a ma

and for nancy pelosi, this is not a walk in the park by any stretch. she worked hard to to make sure that this moment was a triumphant one for her. and if you are speaking to the the people who are pledged in the campaigns, they will not back her, and she has met with them, and some of them several times, and she has met with them several times, and she has worked very, very hard for them. i remember when they first passed obama care on the floor of the house, and i remember her working the mem membbers and no knew if she could get it done, but she was able to do it by saying that i am a battle heart and general and i am the person that you want to take this fight to donald trump, and she is going to get the chance. >> talking to max rose, the new member from staten island and new democrat, and an army veteran, and he says he is going to vote against her, but he knows those are symbolic votes, and she sat down with savannah gutherie, garrett and kasie, and she made some news of her view of whether or not the president can be indicted is an open legal q

dealing with nancy pelosi and chuck schumer. he said this maybe the president should keep in mind in the next phase of this standoff. >> they have really put themselves into a box because they can't define what border security is. if i was the president, i would say really? we're not going to do 5 billion for the wall in then let's go back to the $25 billion to actually secure the border. what nancy pelosi is offering is not border security. and the mainstream media needs to push her. what do you think border security is? it's an impediment to come across the border. what the border patrol wants is a wall. that's what we should be doing. brian: took on the argument. it's immoral as nancy pelosi says to put a wall around your country or mid evil as other people have said. walls work. he says like he also said the wall is immoral. then you better do something about the vatican. the vatican has the biggest wall of them all. if there is immoral leadership. the pope hasn't been too complimentary about the wall idea. maybe they should

they all misread nancy pelosi. it's not like she's an unknown quantity she's been around for a long time everybody in washington knows who she is and how she operates and could know what to expect but they had no clue they've been here two years and they had no clue of how to do this negotiation and they paid the price >> you know, tim o'brien, as somebody who has been a biographer of donald trump, "a," they could have just watched television, which is what donald trump does all day to know what the temperature was. it's shocking they wouldn't know that democrats were not going to give donald trump a wall it's not happening it was interesting to see that split screen where roger stone seemed to be having the time of his life even though he was just indicted donald trump look like the air was completely sucked out of him what do you think is going through his mind right now >> i don't think -- donald trump never stays down for long so i don't think donald trump operating in the public eye in a defeated or deflated m

nancy pelosi, she refuses to negotiate. chucky schumer is unwilling to compromise, all while death, destruction, drugs, cartels, gangs, carnage in america continues to mount. on wednesday, a 16-year-old boy from long island, new york, was seriously stabbed by three ms-13 gang members who were in this country illegally. on monday, an illegal immigrant in maryland was arrested after he paid ms-13 gang leaders $100 to have sex with a 14-year-old goal number girl being traffic by the violent gang. each week, more and more horrific examples, violent crimes, committed by people who have crossed into our country illegally. an unsecured border all across the southern border. just the past two years, we have seen 4,000 arrest for homicide, 30,000 plus sex crimes, over 100,000 assaults against american citizens. 2014, one of my 14 trips to the border, i sat down for a security briefing with then texas governor rick perry, and the amount of carnage in his state, one state, 642,000 crimes committed against texans in a seven year period

nancy pelosi became speaker again. and it was a reminder that, hey, the congress is the most diverse congress of ever. it reminds you what happened november 6th to republicans. it reminds him, hey, everything changed for you at noon today. now you are seriously in trouble. and so i think that now we're seeing that donald trump that we're just going to continue to spiral even farther. and that's what we're going to see. he's going to be fighting all the way. >> the stream of consciousness president. and without a strong chief of staff there to try and keep him in check it worked for a little while with john kelly. and mick mulvaney's first run at it. president trump had the cabinet meeting yesterday which lasted 95 minutes and he talked about nothing and everything at the same time. >>> a cabinet that's adding more lobbyists while departing members are under federal investigation. it probably isn't the best look. okay, i picked out my dream car. now's the really fun part: choosing the color, the wheels, the interior. ev

nancy pelosi knew this bill would go nowhere. we knew from in that meeting we could not come to any conclusion our get a compromise based upon that she had to have a speaker vote. now we have waited, the government has had to be shut down for this. i hope they'll be serious in this meeting, much different than the last meeting. i wish we could have stayed here this weekend and solved it. maybe if you didn't want to keep everybody here, but we could have stayed here and solved this problem. it would not take a long time weefment know where the differences lie. we know how to find compromise. we have done it many times before. that's why the president's aving another meeting. inaudible] mr. mccarthy: did she support the language? that was the wrong language? did she talk to her new member about it? she is the speaker of the house. she is also the head of the democratic party. she has a new freshman incoming individual that use that is type of language that has a determination of what she's going to do with no facts or basis. i thin
