Jon great to be here. Maria great to have you here and dagen, great to have you back, welcome. Dagen i was taken by john kelly, i cant wait to talk about his schooling of the press yesterday and also the fact that we all need to spend time in Arlington National cemetery. Maria youre right. Incredible press conference yesterday for the first time hearing general kelly talk about his son who, of course, passed away in afghanistan. Dagen it was really incredible, it was a lesson in grief, it was a lesson in sacrifice and i wish more people heard what i think we heard from kelly yesterday.

Ly sit down with President Donald Trump this morning, get his take on health care, a lot more, exclusive interview with commander in chief this sunday morning in sunday morning futures 10 00 a. M. Eastern on Fox News Channel. More on monday morning here on Fox Business Network right with us. So the president sitting down with me this morning. But first our top story this hour, one step closer to tax reform. Senate republicans are now narrowly passing a budget blueprint, they did so last night by a vote of 51 to 49 with kentucky senator rand paul joining every democrat to vote against the bill which opens the bill to expanding federal deficit by 1 and a half trillion dollars over ten years, also paves the way for tax overhaul. Tonight we have completed the first step toward replacing our broken tax code. We have a onceinalifetime opportunity to replace a tax code that holds americans back with one that actually works for them. Maria the measure allowed Senate Republicans to pass tax bill with just 50 or more votes as opposed to the 60 votes needed for that major legislation, of course, that reconciliation was very important to pass in that budget for tax reform. President trump praised the budgets passage in very Early Morning tweet writing in, great news on 2018 budget at Senate Majority leader mcconnell first step toward delivering massive tax cuts for the American People. Tax reform, joining us, the president of American Action form, former congressional director and former adviser to john mccains campaign, doug is with us. Doug, good to see you. Tell us your reaction to budget pass last night. Great first step. Its just that, first step. You have to have the house and senate get together identical budgets and get to actual business of writing tax reform. Maria what about the critics saying that its adding to the debt, 1 and a half trillion in tax cuts . That in and of itself is not good news, the question is can you get a really good progrowth tax reform as a result, if so itll be worth it, the proof is in the pudding. Maria general, the president has been clear in building up military but where does the budget come from . They have an amendment in there so they dont have to go to conference. The house can vote on this bill. Here is the challenge. If they dont remove the budget cap, socalled budget control act, f 640 billion, goes back to 549. At 9. At you cannot rebuild the military at all. We actually go into decline. Thats the risk. That is something maybe you can discuss with the president. Maria when would they address the budget caps then . We have the vote last night, timeline. Youre supposed to wrap this up by the end of the year, likely addressed by the appropriation committees, the one on defense has to address it. Maria jon, your thoughts . Jon people havent been talking as much as military piece. Tax piece, doug and i were talking in the green room beforehand of how important the corporate side, the business side of this taxry form is for the American Economy. The individual tax side has gotten so much attention, democrats are saying they they are tax cuts for the wealthy, and the president is saying they want to tax cut ifs for middle class, what really matters the economy is getting the business out of tax reform, corporate rates down to 2025 . Common element between defense side and tax side is the status quo of america. We are seeing a complete lack of preparedness. Awful accidents in the navy, in the pacific. Thats got to change n. The tax front, the real income people work full year, full income, was zero, thats unacceptable. The most important thing for middle class to get tax reform and whats most important is not whats on the paper, if the stuff that jon is talking about, incentives to give businesses to hire in america, innovate in america and get productivity and real wages growing. Maria we have been waiting for senate to pass this, here we have it and looks like open road to tax reform but obviously this is a first step. Dagen very first step. Only republican not to vote for this was senator rand paul. The vast majority of the republicans on board with this. Thats a positive note. Also, just listening to all the poppy cops from the left and democrats all week about the tax reform plan and they focus on the the cut in rates for passthrough entities and as we both know, those are entrepreneurs and those are mom and pop business that is will benefit from Corporate Tax cut but the democrats are messaging it as if its the rich are going take advantage of that. We heard that time and again. I want to hear push back on the right from republicans on that note because, again, thats what has been promise today Small Business owners for literally decades and has never been delivered to them. John maria, i was going to say, i think what the stock market is doing right now is really important. They are sending a signal that investors believe is a step in the direction of getting something done. Maria 5 and a third trillion dollars created since election day. Jon we were talking on tuesday, are we going get over 23,000, now we are well over 23,000 on the dow. A lot of skepticism in this town about whether republicans can get anything done over on capitol hill and what the market is saying, they think its a step of getting tax reform finished. To dagens point, half business is tasessed as passthrough income, if you dont do that reform, its not tax reform. You leave that sitting over there, you have left half of it on the table and youre not going to get the growth that you need. You need to do both. Maria we knew that the left, its all for the rich, thats the talking point. We knew it. Once again the right is constantly is getting bullied over the talking points. If the highest earners are paying if top 10 percent are paying 80 of the tax, if youre not impacting the group, youre not cutting taxes. Its really simple. Big argument for the status quo you want to vote for status quo, fine, no real Income Growth for middle class, all our offshore earnings parked in other countries, innovation parked in ireland, headquarters heading overseas, thats not the vote i want. Maria its really important. General, we have been talking for a year now about the preparedness or lackedness of or military and the sequester obviously killed it and for a long time President Trump has been saying president obama underfunded the defense system. Yeah, he absolutely did. Remember, so audience understands, a combination of president ial initiatives, obamas and Republican Congress that went along with it and it clearly has decimated the military and the accidents that we are seeing are direct result of lack of congressional funding, the military and you take a look at any service out there, we have just shrunk too small to meet everyday requirements we have. If you have less people to meet requirements an doing more, thats what produce it is accidents and mishaps that we have. Maria real quick, this is irry responsible, we are adding to the debt, whats the pushback, doug . The big problem is on spending side. The need for real entitlement reform that makes programs sustainable. I dont think he will do that. Lets get the growth and take on the programs. Maria that conversation is gone, right, jon . You brought this conversation up and time again. I dont hear the conversation happening that much, where is the spending cuts and how do you draw in and take a look at the debt over the long term, how do you control spending . Dagen you control spending, doug, by fixing Social Security, fixing medicaid which the republicans actually tried to do, fixing medicare and controlling the interest on the debt. 80 of the growth in our federal spending in the next decade is going to be from Social Security, Health Care Programs and interest on the debt. Jon you have to say, this is something you can challenge the president on, this is where the president has drawn line on the senate, he said hes not going to touch Social Security and medicare, its tougher to hit those spending pieces, the other point i wanted to throw out to both you and doug ask so republicans get challenged on the wealthy versus middleclass issue, the area where they need to be challenged is on the growth issue, can this tax overhaul really get us from 2 growth rate to 3 , doug, i dont know if you have any views. Half a percentage point. You get half a percentage point and better growth, this all adds up and we need to have half percentage point. Maria Steven Mnuchin has been saying thats how you pay for it. Doug, its always a pleasure, thank you. Thanks for having me. Maria doug holtz there. Luggage exploding on the airplane, faa urging airlines to ban laptop computers.

This has been the topic that we have been talking about all year, it looks like its happening. Consumer report out with 2017 Car Reliability survey results, Tracee Carrasco with a look at how the ratings came out. Shes in new york. Good morning to you. Tracee Consumer Reports put out results for one of the biggest surveys, out of 27 automakers toyota taking the top spot for the fifth Straight Year followed by lexus, kia, audi and bmw. Cars at the bottom, volvo, dodge ram, gmc and cadillac. Cadillac dropped six places from a year ago coming in last place. The survey found that all of cadillacs models had below average reliability. Gms buick was the only u. S. Brand to make the top 10 coming in at eighth place and the biggest movers chrysler rose 10 places, accura down 7 spots, rankings are owners involving 640,000 vehicles and carries a lot of weight amongst consumers who trust Consumer Reports for its analysis, maria.

Jon im surprise today see cadillac at the bottom of the list and kia in top 5, its changing my buying decisions. Maria youre right. Youre right. Gm [laughter] dagen i was going to say, maria, since women make all the carbuying decisions in this country maria yes, yes.

Its hard to believe its been 30 years and obviously the market is. Resilient. Weve had lots of pullback, not too many like that. Maria do you think democrats are going to be voting here or is this a republican tax plan . I dont know how a democrat can honestly vote against this bill and hold the face up high to the electorate. Maria yeah. Democrats and republicans and a lot of behind the scenes activity and hopefully we can bring democrats and republicans together. Maria i dont know where we are here. We listen to some portions of government, they feel they are going get this done. Absolutely not. I have listen today them all year long. They promised us by july 4th, august recess, by tend of the year and now next year. I dont know why anybody would believe these guys on anything they say. Maria secretary mnuchin says that the gains will be in jeopardy, absolute guaranty that tax overhaul will be signed into law by the end of this year. Reasonable timetable . I think the guy is clueless. I think the notion that we are going to have a big, big tax cut is a dream. They cant pay for it and we are in a different environment than 1981. Maria 23 and change. Up half a percent on General Electric. The stock has been cut in half, what happened . They have to get growth, they have to get productivity, innovation. Someone who you dont think would raise rates aggressively that would be janet yellen. She wanted to do all the policies to get the economy going. Maria illegal grounds here . Well, he has a legal basis for this, the question is does he have a factual basis. If he could show that there was an agreement either expressed or unexpressed amongst owners to keep him off the field because of his political views, then the law is very much in his side. 99. 9 of players stand each and every the National Anthem comes on.

Deliver the best Facebook Page you have seen all we, ups drivers are sharing pictures of the adorable dogs they come across on their roots. Such pretty pictures. All that coming up this morning about top stories is half hour General Electric earnings i just out the weaker than expected, stock is down. Joining us is chris cordero, thanks for joining us. This stock is worsening, down 32 3 . I was hoping for more disappointing earnings. This is the time to throw everything but the kitchen sink, anything that might be bad so leveling expectations. Maria earnings were expected to include charges and that is why we are looking at earnings, there is a discrepancy in terms of how bad the number is because there are charges here. What do you expect in terms of the dividend . Given this earnings release, wasnt as bad as it could have been, looking to hold on to the dividend. If you want to dividend, you would put out a bad quarter of earnings, do as much dad you can to manage this to the downside but this way a lot of rationale for the dividend. This appears to be a pragmatic approach and looks like they are setting things up that they arent as bad. Revenues have been on the upside the past couple quarters and that is positive. When earnings, when revenues are positive yet earnings are disappointing to the downside that is management. I thought this was an opportunity to come back up. Maria John Flannery, the new ceo of ge says it is a challenging quarter. Back to the kitchen sink issue. How much bad news does he throw at investors . The big issue is not the report but on november 18th he is laying out his vision for new financial targets for the company and his strategy for the Company Going forward. That is where we see how he intends to direct General Electric. What do you think ge needs to do to right the ship strategically . I have to stop timing the market, they made bad calls getting out of financials at the top, and they got into oil at the top. They need to keep a diverse business line to be the top one or two in that industry and when they do that and supply their great management that is what they do well, trying to figure out when to get in or out of these businesses and one of the strengths of ge was diversification. Different Business Units were not going to do well at the same time but they were diverse enough to get a better result. Maria not anymore. They have changed this Company Selling ge capital, selling media, doubling down on energy, i know you will be on that Conference Call. What are you looking to hear . Dagen you will expect to hear from John Flannery, his costcutting efforts. November 13th is when he will lay out Strategic Vision for the company. Division in the short run is Cutting Company cars, canceling a fancy executive retreat, maybe cutting thousands of corporate jobs. In the short run we know that. Secondly in this Conference Call i want to hear was ge says about the dividend. This is a company with deteriorating cash flow that ruled out cutting the dividend but not generating enough cash to pay for it as it stands. The baker hughes combination in july, oil and gas business, reporting results of the find entity. What future looks like for that arm of the business. Maria you agree with that . Is that what you were focused on . Great point on the expenses. This Corporate Jet nonsense sets the tone the wrong way. If you are not controlling it from the top run through the organization. I like tone of that, getting back to fiscal conservatism, getting away from the nonsense of big fluffy retreats. Dagen jeff immelt had a spare jet that used to follow him around the world. They use to park on the tarmac far apart so they wouldnt attract attention. That is going to be gone. Maria that story was mind blowing. I had no idea. I was a director two publicly traded successful companies, when is general dynamics, after 13 years even a guy like me in the military i learn some things as well as keep costs and expenses down, the ceo puts an emphasis on that even see. The other thing i learned is you got core businesses, stick to that, at times you drift outside of it but success is tied to staying with their core business and that made the company. Maria you are a director at different companies. Where are the directors . You mentioned this jet the ceo used to use flying next to him with nobody in it and it was down low. Where are the directors on the vatican the board was okay with that i guess. Dagen a terrific point. What i cant understand is the performance as a stock under jeff immelt wasnt good. It was awful. You can blame the financial crisis all you want but there should have been a lot more pushback from the Board Members in terms of what they were getting for what they were paying not just in compensation but he had a spare jet flying around the world. Maria . 29 versus . 49. That is where we get back to the kitchen sink issue, we need to get into these numbers and see what they threw out to get bad news out of the way a Conference Call november 13th where he lays out his vision for the company. The other point i went to make is ge used to be a bellwether for the broader market. We saw the market, what we are seeing now is how far it has strayed from being a bellwether not only for the market but the broader economy. Ge isnt a bellwether for the market anymore, what is . Is it apple . The Tech Companies . Amazon . What do you look at to get a sense where the market is going . Of those, apple is the best one but apple is a difficult bellwether because apple is a one product company, 65 is iphones so that they could difficult. I would rather see ge in the bellwether because it is diverse industrial give you a better indication but it has gone astray. It used to be only ge stock was owning a treasury, better management. Those times are gone. They overexpose themselves on the Financial Sector and never recovered. Maria it was a bellwether because of different industries, didnt give you a bellwether look at what the Global Economy they became more exposed to finance and the whole economy became more exposed to finance and the Financial Sector collapsed. Maria is there anyway this is a by . They made the mistake of trying to tie the market getting in and out of the sectors at the wrong time. I dont think it is a by yet. If we see stock price below 20, probably a great buy but right now i hold on a little longer. Maria we will be watching, thanks so much. The chief Investment Officer at regent atlantic.

Time to tackle tax reform, the Senate Approved a 4 trillion budget plan in a latenight vote paving the way for Donald Trumps ambitious overhaul.

I hope as you write your stories, i appeal to america, lets not let this last thing that is held sacred in our society, young man, young woman going out and giving his or her life for our country, lets somehow keep that sacred. Maria his stirring defense of Donald Trumps message to a Fallen Soldiers widow. Quite a press conference.

Sweeping away the signature, mastercard letting as customers leave their pen at home. Coming up this morning im sitting down with donald trump, we will get his take on tax reform, healthcare and a lot more. Watch my exclusive interview with the commanderinchief on sunday morning futures at 10 00 eastern on the Fox News Channel and more monday morning on a mornings with maria at 6 00 eastern. We will get the president s reaction to such a busy moment in time. The Trump Administration clearing a critical hurdle for tax reform as Senate Republicans pass a budget for the 2018 fiscal year. They did the last night, the Senate Voting 5149 primarily along party lines except republican senator rand paul, he voted against the proposal. Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell took to the floor after the vote. With this budget we are on a path to delivering muchneeded relief to american individuals and families who have borne the burdens of an unfair tax code for too long. Middleclass families across america we have a very simple message. We want to take more money out of washingtons pockets and put more in yours. Maria the president tweeted last night posting great news on the 2018 budget, Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnells first step toward delivering massive tax cuts to the American People. The director of legislative affairs, good to see you. Thanks for joining us. The administration at next step toward tax reform, tell us about getting tax reform done. It was a huge vote, the budget enables us to move forward on tax reform under budget reconciliation rules. We hope we can win democrats. We recognize how to get it done. The markup in the house, and ways and Means Committee and Senate Finance committee, through the end of november like the senate in december and in a year we have to deliver massive tax reform for the American People. Maria we havent had that in 30 years. The hidden real estate lobbyists and states and local, and illuminated deductions for state and local income. It has been ongoing. They are subsidizing states that are poorly managed with tax burdens on the system. And make them subsidize high earners with the unfair system. Maria general jack keane is here, he has been talking about this for a wild. It is really questionable. These budget caps, are we going to see spending that is required to make this country have a ready military given the issues we face . The president s but it has an increase in military spending, he knows it needs more and that is what we aim to do. Related, the reality is if we continue to have the 1. 8 growth under the obama years we will not be able to afford to rebuild our military. We need growth in the economy to bring new growth into the economy for more funding to make sure america is safe and secure, and essential part of tax relief interlinked, not if you just have tax policy here international 30 policy here, they are interlinked because if we grow the economy we can spend more money making sure the military has the tools it needs. Maria you think we will see real growth as a result of the tax plan, for present anytime soon in terms of gdp . Hard to predict that. I recognize what we are forecasting the next several years is a conservative estimate under 3 , 2. 29 . Under the obama years, 1 growth, the worst growth of any president since the great depression. We can do a lot better. If we allow americans to keep more of what they earn, invest in the economy we will see the economy take off. Maria a conversation that seems to have gone away, reining in spending. Im talking on both sides of the aisle but adding 1. 5 trillion to the National Debt is serious money. Under the Obama Administration it doubled from 10 to 20 trillion but how do you rein in spending . When does that become priority again . It has been a priority from day one. It balanced in ten years, the president is sincere, he ran on recognizing what happened in the last several years is we added 10 trillion to the death, doubled to 20 trillion. All the president s in American History total 10 trillion, we doubled in the last eight years, the president knows that and that is why he submitted a balanced budget. Not only are we allowing that because of the way it was scored but dynamic scoring, we will bring more revenue to the American Economy if we get it going again. Maria we know the growth in spending is the entitlements, Social Security, healthcare, medicare, medicaid. Went we make real reform on these entitlement programs . If you look at our efforts this past fall on repealing replace, that was the biggest entitlement reform this country has seen in generations. We fell just short of that because we lost by one vote. That was reform the president was putting forward and we look to reform the program as we turn the corner in 2018. Maria lets talk healthcare lose the president s support for healthcare hinges on ties to obamacare road blacks, rollbacks. According to the wall street journal lamar alexander, democratic senator patty murray released a bipartisan bill with the backing of 22 additional senators. The president said he was on board. Donald trump seeking changes to the legislation which extends federal payments known as costsharing reductions, support angela relief from the Affordable Care act requirement that most people must have Health Coverage or pay a penalty. Is that bipartisan bill the key to healthcare reform . How come the president soured on it . He is encouraged by that. We havent seen it in the health care debate. He is encouraged by the process. The reality is costsharing reductions, has your cost gone down . Any american maria have all gone up. The costsharing reductions, and oxymoron. They have not had their cost go down. We have mandated everybody by insurance, who has benefited . Health Insurance Companies. Sickness insurance stock price of 40 since obamacare past, 470 . We have a problem with Companies Making profits but american taxpayer dollars subsidizing the plan. Taxpayer dollars giving it to Insurance Companies to record huge profits. That is not a free market, that is not fair. Maria the money wasnt constitutional. The courts have ruled the payments are illegal. The president is encouraged by the process but we need more reforms, to reduce costs. Maria how do you do that . Several ways th one way is a lemode the individual mandate anemployer mandate but also allow additional contributions to Health Savings accounts. That will allow people to spend dollars more freely of the premiums. Maria the president is expected to attend the weekly policy lunch next week giving the president the opportunity to meet with republican critics including senator bob corker, john mccain, i would like to be in that room. What does the president need to do to get the full support of the gop by knitted in the . He is excited about the invitation being with members on tuesday and will talk about what to do between now and the end of the year. We have a historic opportunity to get the economy going and provide tax relief and a historic opportunity on the budget and the president is key on many nominations tied up in the senate to make sure his administration is fully staffed. Maria he has been traveling with Democratic Senators taking senator donnelly with recently when he went to indiana, north dakota, heidi heitkamp, is he counting on those vote in the tax bill . In a vote last night in many ways the budget was proxy for the tax reform vote. We believe we will have the votes on the republican side but also that the plan will be better for the bipartisan, more encouraging for the American People, we want to earn their support and we hope they are with us, we dont believe Corporate Tax rate is something that is holding back the American Economy. We can create more jobs particularly in midwest state. Maria do you find pushback on the corporate rate coming down 35 to 20 . Absolutely. Maria no pushback . Many democrats feel they dont want that but we the economy will get going. Maria we are the highest industrial in the world. In other countries continuing to lower further. What you are seeing is countries they realize, look what happened in ireland, many countries over there Corporate Tax rate, we need to bring Companies Back into our country and if we have a Corporate Tax rate that is competitive we know the American Worker can compete. Maria are you expecting tax reform happens by year end . Will be retroactive to 2017 or we are talking about 2018 . We will get it done before the end of the year. Maria you wanted retroactive to 17. We believe it there. Good to see you. Thanks for joining us this morning. Mark short. Coming up, sick of signing a receipt . Mastercard is making optional for customers.

White house chief of staff john kelly speaking out about Donald Trumps phone call to the widow of one of the slain soldiers in niger. I was stunned when i came to work yesterday morning and brokenhearted at what i saw a member of congress doing, a member of congress who listened in on a phone call from the president of the United States to a young wife and in his way tried to express that opinion, a brave man, a fallen hero. He knew what he was getting into because he enlisted. There is no reason to enlist, he enlisted. He was where he wanted to be, exactly where he wanted to be with people he wanted to be with when his life was taken. That was the message. Maria emotional comments yesterday. All of this after there she is, democratic congresswoman Frederica Wilson said the president s remarks during the phone call were insensitive. Kellys own son died in combat in afghanistan. Maria general team is with us this morning, what did you think . That 17 minute message he gave the American People was quite extraordinary. The eloquence of his conviction, his sincerity, his emotion was such a powerful lesson to the American People, expecting those who serve, respecting those who have given up everything. Maria a heavy heart when he was talking and this woman, Frederica Wilson getting political, even last night she came out with a comment saying john kelly is just trying to keep his job. Just disgusting. She is absolutely clueless. I totally agree with general kellys crushing rebuke of congresswoman wilson, shameful, selfish, political grandstanding. Shes a disgrace to the office she holds in my judgment and a disgrace to the congress at large. I have never seen anybody trample over something as sacred as the death of a fallen soldier and interfering with a president who is trying to express his feelings to that family. What general kelly said to the president was interesting. He was counseled by joe dunford, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff when his own son died and said to him the same thing that for 40 years families have said. I have my arms around mothers and fathers and wives and kids and cried with him over the loss of their loved ones and one thing that kept coming back from the families is the same message, the one comfort is my son, when my husband was doing what he wanted to do, he was where he wanted to be. And doing this. That was the comfort the president based on the advice of general kelly was trying to give this young wife. This woman tramples on that and called him out for being insensitive. That is horrific and shameful. Maria we will talk about this, an incredible story, love and support that Fallen Soldiers parents, we talk more about that. Coming up next mandalay bay is deciding to no longer rent the sweet las vegas shooter Stephen Paddock used to kill 58 people, the Hotel Statement next, tension grows over north koreas missile capabilities.

Maria tensions rising between the United States and pyongyang, mike pompeo and hr mcmaster warning north korea is on the verge of being able to hit the United States with a nuclear missile. They say forces should be prepared for military confrontation with the rogue country. They are close enough now in their capabilities at from a us policy perspective, we ought to behave as if they are on the cusp of achieving that objective. We are on a race to resolve this sort of military action. What we need to achieve is an unprecedented level of international cooperation. The prospects for that are pretty good for that level of cooperation. Maria it has begun to arm its soldiers as the us steps up its patrols. Joining us the cia officer, National Security adviser to president obamas president ial campaign, marie hard, for joining the conversation. What do you make of this . We are in a serious situation. We heard serious warnings from hr mcmaster and mike pompeo and the American People need to Pay Attention because there are a couple ways to resolve this, diplomatically. What worried me is i havent seen a lot about Diplomatic Options and that is behind the scenes and the president s Upcoming Trip to asia will be important in that regard. This will be the top of the agenda but we heard talk about possible military action. We may be getting closer to that every day. Maria what are the dramatic options . Diplomatic options are the main effort. What has happened between administrations is president obama despite his rhetoric never had the military option on the table. North korea didnt believe it, secretary john kerry used to complain to me about the lack of the poetic effort and realism in trying to deal with russia and syria and the rest of it because we were never willing to strengthen the diplomatic effort because of the threat of military force. Trumps team understand the threat of military force threatened the diplomatic option. The main effort is diplomacy and economic sanctions which we have 20 countries to cut off trading with north korea. We have china who cut off the major currency banks and doing business with maria as a big deal. The only reason and the only reason that is happening is because trump but the military option on the trail and people believe him. He asked the syria mention. Bashar alassad used chemical weapons on his own people, he asked the chemical strike against was not going to accept wmd offending human civilization. He executed that on behalf of the United States and the world at large and the next day he goes one on one with trump and for the First Time Ever says to him i am willing to work with to denuclearize north korea. The challenge here is it is a balance, credible military option makes diplomacy better, but the North Koreans, i am worried there looking at this and diplomacy isnt an option anymore. When he tweets sorry, Rex Tillerson, there is only one way to deal with that and he is winking and nodding towards military action a number of american journalists have gone to north korea and reported back there taking these threats very seriously so we have to make sure the North Koreans know that diplomacy is an option and conflict is not inevitable because of faith, miscalculate risks go way up in my opinion. The idea the president and Rex Tillerson are playing good, bad cop, the president thank diplomacy isnt working and we have to rely on the military but tillerson still talking to these people. Maria do the North Koreans believe tillerson speaks for the president to get it has been a question around the world with these public spats he had with donald trump. Does secretary tillerson speak for the president . Some of our allies and adversaries are asking that question and that is not a good place for any secretary of state. I believe tillerson and trump though they have disagreements on complicated issues, this agreement, once decisions are made the decision here is rather simple. We are executing diplomatic economic sanction based option strengthened by military force and the president is doing everything he can to reverse the calculation that kim jong un made when obama was president. He believed by holding the American People at risk which was a departure from his father and grandfather pointing weapons at the American People that we would accept that as previous administrations accept Nuclear Weapons that may develop, that is what he was banking on. The calculation he has now, trump is president and he is not going to accept that. Trump is spending his time trying to get inside his head and make sure he understands he is serious. Are we being tough enough with china . They are to diplomacy. Some people are arguing we should be pushing more ,sanctions on Chinese Companies chinesbanks,hinese individus. Maria ome say china will pick it up after the chinese congressfter the president visits. This is a big trip to asia, hes going to a number of countries about north korea, the top of the agenda, this is a big trip for the president , a lot to get done. Maria when he came back from the middle east trip he had 400 billion deal. Will he be doing deals in the far east . Thank you very much. Coming up two former president s blasting donald trump without saying his name is what george w. Bush and barack obama had to say next. Paul ryan cracking jokes at the al smith dinner, his hilarious commentary. We are back in two minutes. Rear. The 2018 audi q5 is here. Six in the morning. She thought it was a fire. It was worse.

In asia overnight markets were higher take a look at the close. The Senate Approved a 4 trilliondollar budget plan paving the way for tax reform. We are taking a look at what comes next the overhaul a reality. General motors finally putting the deadly ignition switch scandal behind it. How much they will pay to settle the crisis across states. Speaker paul ryan roast President Trumpet during his keynote. The truth is. Nobody is infallible. We all make mistakes. We all learn. I have learned so much in congress for example, i learned that tweeting after midnight is a really bad idea. With the you are present trump or anthony weiner. The best jokes here in new york. We got them. Christmas is coming and hopefully your wallet is getting fat. Wait to see the new christmas book. First our top stories this half hour. President ial put down. George w. Bush in president obama were emerged into the political spotlight yesterday delivering separate speeches that come together with the common thread. They tucked veiled jabs at President Trumpet. Disconnect deepened and sharpened. Our politics seems more vulnerable and outright fabrications. Some had called this democratic deep consultation. It seems to be a combination of wariness frayed tempers in forgetfulness. We have seen our discourse. At a time when our politics seem so divided and angry whether we support and embrace somebody who wants to bring people together. Yes we can. Joining us this morning is Hillary Clinton campaign chief. Let me kick it off for you. A code of silence among president s not to denigrate president s in office. I dont think there was anything new and what president obama said. Our politics should get along. I think everybody agrees with that. The surprise that former president bush came out here. Personally people like it. They like his cell. He remember he won reelection. I think that is something that actually bush did not accomplish. Just looking. What you think mark. You have a style over substance. Back in 2016 when they elected President Trumpet. They were tired of seeing their jobs overseas. I will note that neither of the former president s mentioned it by name. That was one of the reasons why the President Trumpet was elected. He was gonna say what was on the American Peoples mind and thats what he took to the blue wall. Its okay to sit down and be quiet we will do anyway. What i would tell you is that when you look at the results that President Trump is getting the president has a plan. Tax reform is going to embolden that. Look at where the country is. Most people are unhappy with the democrats. The country is divided into camps. There is no uniter. Politics out there is vicious to say the least and so both president s are right in their observation the fact that everybody blamed it on trump. Will president obama be able to have the magic that he have president clinton enjoyed getting there also. I find midterm electorates dont listen. That did not work in 2016. He have the power of the incumbency. Obviously yesterday he went to the democratic style in new jersey something for a candidate who is really struggling right now. It was more like roaster of the house. They set the sites on commander in chief. Watch this. You know what i find amazing about this is i dont think i have seen this many new york liberals since my last visit. They reset of prayer. There was just this one kind of awkward moment on the supreme being the president took up instead of took about. Does it get in the way of the president s agenda. He is working to bring republicans together. It was humorous and funny. This is one of the areas that they have gone together. I think speaker ryan having some fun. Is not just all partisan. Maybe it can remind us in the areas that they are united. I think in the best traditions of it. Remember when hillary and trump were there last night they really got angry at each other. Really taken back by what happened. This was supposed to be good Political Fund i was there. They pay up over at ignition switch. What do you get the person who has everything. Check out the catalog.

A new kind of network designed to save you money. Call, visit or go to xfinitymobile. Com. Welcome back we are focused on the Federal Reserve chair. He nears a decision on whether to rate nominate her as chairman or replace her. Replacer. Some of the candidates have republicans wary. The term is up. What is your take on all of this. I think the president s advisers had staked out positions. The sacred that chair likes this. Where does the president himself stand. He said he likes all of these five candidates. He really hasnt tipped his hand during the campaign. He wanted a republican in that job. But since becoming president he said he likes her. And you have to ask with the economy going pretty will and the Unemployment Rate very low. And the stock market hitting new highs. Does he really want to change horses in the middle of the race. How committed is the president to having a republican in that position as opposed to a democrat. She has kept rates so low. Does the president want rates low when hes coming out with new fiscal policy. This is one of the Big Questions for republicans as a look at the other candidates that are out there. Who is going to work best with the economic policies that he is advancing. He wants the growth rate up from 2 to 3 . Someone who comes in that raises Interest Rates a lot will potentially undermine the estimates that hes going at professor growth and could undermine the effects of tax cuts janet yellin has done it really gradually. She seconded to second to do something that really undermines this expansion. If you have an economy that is growing and as warranting higher Interest Rates as a good story. It all depends on why Interest Rates are going higher. They have a four and half a trillion dollar Balance Sheet that they have to unwind. We are seen this kind of Balance Sheet on want. When they actually smash the economic recovery that is actually gaining traction. She hasnt made a big mistake. A lot of people were worried that they were gonna push Interest Rates that would cause hyperinflation. Then they were worried they were in to pull back too quickly. That hasnt happened. We could get a couple of quarters in a row of excess of two and half percent. If hes going to switch courses at this point. Is the democrat and the fed different. I doubt that she would do that to her own legacy. We wanted to point out talking about activism. Companies that should stand with activists. We want to get the stock up. Its a delicate balance.

Good morning to you as well another step down for Senate Republicans last night but still a ways to go, for the president goal of tax reform, Senate Republicans last night,passing a budget resolution and the president is tweeting on this topic this morning, here is what he said a while ago, and i quote the budget passed late last night 5149 zero democrat votes only rand paul he will vote for tax cuts, voting to the president says this allows for large scale tax cuts and reform will be the biggest in the history of our country, now this clears the way, for an up to 1. 5 trilliondollar tax reform package eventually potentially but also just as big as you heard marc short tell you this allows for republicans to get the tax reform to do it with only 50 votes, plus the Vice President. Mitch mcconnell was sell bra for on a the floor. Across america we have a very simple message. We want to take more money out of washingtons pockets, and put more in yours. A Statement Last night, the top democrat Chuck Schumer said the following, of the republican measure quote it shifts the burden from the wealth and pits it squarely on the back of the middle class, and blows a hole in the deficit to boot i think it will go down in history as one of the worst budgets congress has ever passed that is from democrats, bottom line here, there is still a ways to being on entire process, the senate and the house, still have to reconcile their budget differences then only then really after that do republicans get to the major lift of tax reform. Back to you and i will see you at the white house. Maria i will see you soon blake thanks so much blake burman at the white house, joining me right now, is the chairman of the house ways and Means Committee chairman brady thanks for joining us. Thanks. So congratulations, i mean talking about this all year, now youve got the opening to tax reform, your reaction to the s key crucial moment we couldnt proceed without this occurring, so one, great job, secondly, so this paves the way for us to the house, to reconcile the differences i am confident we can do that next week and then we move very soon, both on revealing and laying out, the most progrowth tax reform in 31 years, but also the timetable for marking up beginning action in the House Committee on ways and means as well historic day he appropriately sunday, is the ri that timetable. Maria that is right, sunday is the it would be a momentous day, mr. Chairman you heard Chuck Schumer he said that it is a terribly budget, worst budget he has seen blows a hole in the deficit how do you push back on that what do you say to senator schumer saying this is again what we expected, and a cut for the rich blows up the deficit . At the end of the day i think democrats have been saying those lines for so many years, they dont knowe progrowth than the one we have today about tax reform is all about. Markup begins caulk wake us through that making the sausage when does markup begin in house and senate when will a bill be introduced for president s desk for signage. Permissivots off budget when signed sealed delivered we announce dates, of reform plan to table to begin markup in ways and means as well,ed se. Are you willing to go forward with this tax bill without eliminating the deduction for state and local income taxes a lot of people on house side will not sign this if you eliminateyeah, so a day lawmakers ask will our taxpayers be better off after tax reform than before the answer yes when you are in low tax state or high tax state we are working with lawmakers to find a good way to do that, but while were doing that we want to lower taxes across the board, crosscountry as well, so look, i expect to have continued discussions next week that will be a key part of the ultimate as we lay out open tax reform plan you are going to see lawmakers play a key role. Let me ask you this mr. Chairman because so many large are korns so many years paid no taxes; right . When you look at a ge, some big globally companies they have to used all the loopholes available, to get their tax rate down to zero, so that tells me 20 corporate rate is a tax tax reform framework is exactly what we need to do. Mr. Chairman when are you going do release the brackets so we know what 12 covers 25 covers 35 in terms of income people want to understand am i 25 bracket or 35 bracket. Exactly. That will be that would be part of the overall tax reform plan we lay out chairmans the aways and Means Committee a couple reasons those are not yet set will be part of that process we are driving middle class tax cut, secondly we want to address those issues, in those high tax states as well where we set brackets does address those issues we want more conversations with lawmaker we want to make sure this is really strong progrowth no matter, and helpful to your pocketbook no matter where you live. Does thibe. Because the committee for responsible budget saying look you said yes to 1 1 2 trillion dollars of tax cuts on top of 20 trillion dollar debt. Well, those that figure really represents both Economic Growth from tax reform we know occurs and also, really reflects a common sens fair this moves us toward a balanced budget. We will leave it there mr. Chairman thanks so much for all your hard work on this good to talk with you with these again this morning.

Dodgers world series bound after win against chicago cubs in American League game six between new york yankees Houston Astros kicks off tonight yanks one win away from world series as well ironman Major League Baseball hall of famer, cal ripken, jr. , with us great to see you. Thank you for joining us what did you think of last nights game first of all. Dodgers have been good for a long time at which they havent been able to get over the hump the last out line drive do shortstop i was in world series last out line driver brought back good memories dodgers are a great team. Who is going to be world series. I dont think you can count on huven yet i think berlin has something to say seems toward dodgeryankees world series i think networks who wins that one . Nobody can predict that. Come on played baseball about 21 years, i am an American League guy even though yankees were rivals all those years i have to root for i dont know how friends in battle more feel but endorsing the yanks but we will take it. Back to baltimore. Rooting for baltimore, come on. This is loyalty. You were a baseball player. I was just a High School Baseball player couldnt hit curve balls all the stuff these i told him, privately now that hardest thing professional sports for at abouters to hit nothing harder what he did is extraordinary, an honor to be sitting next to him. Much different in high school for big allocatileagues, the same. Dagen. Talk about being tiron man you played such a high level for so long, this is a business channel what advice do you have for people about upcoming consistently at high level for long periods of time what goes into being able to do that. I have an attendance record, about issue you dont accomplish anything unless you get to work. I guess your definition what consistency is to me, we have new challenge each, every day sometimes you cant always have best stuff that day you got to find a way to contribute in other ways, that would be my advice, try to figure out how you can contribute each and every day, to move the ball forward or in our case to win a game. Even on days not at best find some way to contribute. You got to figure out how to play hurt hurt meaning, something less than one hundred percent i think all big League Players come in spring training mib one hundred percent then, there is a level down from there if you get the confidence to figure out how you can make contributions at less than your best you are more valuable employee. I like that swries Dagen Mcdowell in new york. It is Dagen Mcdowell do you think that professional athletes like a lot of men in this country have gotten soft . Maria i have a lot of professional athletes have they gotten soft . He doesnt hear you i couldnt hear the question. Anyway relaacting i dont want to be an old baseball, tougher and better than when i played it is different now different measures to quantify whether you need less or not i played all the time i figured that, whatever you took forward, the degree of you toughness i am not sure playing 162 is honor. You call a game or. What was worse condition you played under when most kids today wouldnt be playing the game. I applied through hern herniated disk in 1997 we are beating yankees from first day to last i had a herniated disk i have been through rebuilding processes i want to play now. That is a pro. Asked dr. If i could play through that if i could do damage he said no, i said i will try it was painful. I want to ask about nfl match previous to spread to go other sports President Trump Vice President pence released a petition yesterday asking for signatures from supporters who believe in standing for the starspangled banner. So we have a platform i use my platform certain way i never thought to use it in a way that is being used now but if you do there is a risk there is a consequences to those sort of actions if you dont care convectiosequences g ahead but i wouldnt do it. How you feel about it. I just think the National Anthem a sacred thing brings whole country together, regardless of where what our backgrounds are, come together honor that flag honor the what it stands for in this country, i think there is plenty of opportunities for athletes are in any walk of life, to protest but not during those two half minutes. Certainly not during americas support, thanks. Cal your company ripken baseball generated Gross Revenue 30 Million Dollars you sold two franchises looking for partnerships in your home down maryland tell us about your experience as Small Business owner. I got into learning business getting into baseball that is not true passion we have three teams we sold off two going to focus on scaling up kids business three complexes that work well different models looking to acquire and grow that side of the business because that is that is where my true passion is, giving them the experience, and the opportunities to move forward. How hard was it to transition, from the field to Small Business owner. It was different feels like you gave everybody else 20, 25 years head start you had to learn each day was a learning curve but now getting our feet underneath us a bit making business decisions, there is a lot about common sense, and gaining your knowledge whatever business you are in. When you look at baseball today what strikes you most in terms of change how is the Game Changing how does everything change. I keep thinking my dad used to say things go in cycles. But i think the biggest differs is probably faster bullmens more specialized throw harder throughout lineup, you have to be rad to adapt to it to many changes. I will bet greatest to have you on the program real honor cal ripken, jr. , there thank you so much when we come back time to tackle tax reform the senate proved four trilliondollar budget plan last night in late night vote paving the way for tax code overhaul we break down next steps, then all rise for the winner of the house.

Stirring defense of President Trumps condolence call to a fallensolds widow our top story this half an hour the Trump Administration clearing a critical have you heard fellow tax reform Senate Republicans passed a budget for 2018 fiscal year, the senate voted 51 to 49, primarily party lines except republican senator rand paul rand paul voted against the proposal, Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell to the floor after the vote watch this. After completed the first step toward replacing our broken tax code, we have a with these in a lifetime opportunity to replace a failing tax code that holds americans back with one that actually works for them. Maria in the president tweeted this this morning, he said this, the budget passed late last night 5149 we got zero democrat votes, with only rand paul voting against this, he said he will vote for tax codes though tax cuts, this allows for passage of the large scale tax cuts and reform, when will be the biggest in this history of our country he says, this will happen, well, lets bring in author Fox News Contributor Newt Gingrich mr. House speaker good to see you thanks so much for being here what is the administrations next steps walk us through the process, after you did so it wonderfully in the 80s pretty straightforward next ways and Means Committee has to roll out a bill probably one or two hearings on the bill, they then have to mark the bill up get out of committee it has got to go through the house at that point the senate because all money bills about originate in the house the senate has to hold hearings the Senate Finance committee has to, mark up a bill get to senate they have go to concerns can when they come out of conference you got to have a bill that can both pass the house and pass the senate. That sounds like awful lot to do. I am very concerned as i saw your interview earlier today with talking about white house perspective. Marc short. I have said they should have had goal for thanksgiving you and i talked about it before i am hearing start to slide towards christmas that is dangerous because it means you can slide into january. You slide into january, everybody goes home. You lose momentum, now you are sliding into february. It is a very simple proposition the republicans need a very large tax cut to ensure a big enough boom next year that they are running as party of prosperity takehome pay and jobs, if that happens, you are going to gain 5 or 6 seats in the senate they are going to do great in the house going to be fine if they go into not getting this thing done until easter look at legislative history how things work, you know, they really need i think to accelerate the current schedule, there is no question that i think they will eventually get a bill, but i think in terms of of the impact they need they need that bill sooner. What do you think this is going to look like, when they are done what are the key pieces that that our viewers can look forward to having in tax bill. Sound like partisan republican great virtual passing reconciliation only way democrats you dont tax the rich you dont have to you dont have to punish corporations probably another 20 top rate for corporations, probably going to have 25 passthrough rate for Small Business, which is a huge tax cut, probably going to have doubling the class rooeks paul ryan campaigned on postcard so probably literally going to reduce most peoples taxes to postcard this is the paul ryan postcard. What about the soft deduction everybody fighting about state and local income tax. Have i love it. You like it . I love you got Chuck Schumer apparently last year took 58,000 dollars deductions, for his state and local taxes, defending the right of the rich, to take the production off all the rest of us, and himself the people now defending the rich are the democrats want to fight for decrees for practical reason they love big state local government. So will democrats vote for it. Wont be 50th vote the one that gets to 50 i think at least four will will get nor it i think ntd, indiana, probably missouri, probably West Virginia as baseline may be more than about that probably at least will they get to 50 . When they get to 50. Will they get to 50. Sure, 50. What is what is the probabilitiprobably doesnt get done. Less than 10 very serious the president going to visit with the Senate Luncheon on tuesday. Yes. I suspect his message i hope his message, is going to be, you got to get this done and get before christmas you cannot leave town if you have any doubt gotten dont go home for thanksgiving youve got to get this tone. We are talking earlier with the general about defense spending, and budget caps so what is your take on building up the military, given the threat weve got to get rid of caps you cannot defend america at the current rate and you are going to have to spend dramatically more on defense. So when do we Start Talking about you know, slowing down spending when do we Start Talking about the 20 trillion in debt. You need have to reform government.

Good morning, downside this morning, sales in revenue miss you can see down 1. 7 right now, the revenue did come up shy, they did have higher sales in the beauty segment, you remember that ceo banking on price increases rather than volume, to try and move this company forward, honeywell on the other hand is up sided they had higher sales one area of strengthen for honeywell up 3 4 of 1 the productivity gear products have moved honeywell higher ge down more than 7 this morning the big news cutting for being ceo talking about Sweeping Changes that need to be done, note happy with the latest quarter, down 7 1 2 and they are going to keep focus on the dividend about it obviously looking at major overhaul. I remember applying this at 60 bucks a long, long time ago, this morning yeah, i think that is about where i got my options, when i was working 59 3 4 thank you so much, Dagen Mcdowell in new york on Conference Call right now, i guess, something is being said that is worsening the situation dagen what did we learn. Dagen lets just talk about dividend get to cut to the case John Flannery new ceo talking about this very thing we dont know anything concrete about the dividend payout, flannery saying, that the dividend is a priority in the expect a allocation they are in process of finalizing that Capital Allocation framework we will find out, essentially what happens to the dividend, on november 13th that is when you have this big meeting where flannery is going to lay out strategy but the strategy to try and turn this company around, let me just be blunt. The company that jeff immelt was running is a disaster some quotes major changes are needed results are unacceptable to say the alleviate, least the Sweeping Change focusing on culture of the company 20 billion dollars plus assets sold next year and one half in terms of dividend we must point out the cash flow forecast was cut about in half for this year maria seven billion dollars, that dividend cost 8 billion dollars, every year, so the cash flow forecast cut to 7 billion, from 12 to 14 billion, and you look at that stock, it is worsening as the call goes on. The only reason you are not seeing it show up more in the the overall dow that is cheapest in the dow industrials so because it is so cheap it has the least impact on the overall dow industrials. There you go dagen the stock is now down 8 1 3 while you were talking i think people wanted to hear flannery on call say we will not cut dividend what you told us not that they are Still Deciding on allocating capital. Right he says a priority, they know it is a priority to the shareholders but if the money is not there then you have to focus on the growth and the dividend. And, again, this is a business that is struggling to the worse part of the business is the power business, that is why you are seeing the pullback in cash flow, pullback disappointing and this was they were about 16 cents of the of the earnings miss in this in this report, result of impairments restructuring charges so it was kind of a kitchen sink if you will that was 16 cent hit to earnings. Ge is the only remaining company in the Dow Jones Industrial average from when the dow started 30 companies within there dagen thanks great information dagen on Conference Call still we will bring headlines that she hears to tax reform last night republican senators passed the a four trilliondollar budget blueprint paving the way to overhaul tax code the host of Varney Company Stuart Varney weighing in final happening. 80 may be 90 chance yes, we get that tax cut deal going through, the budget has passed, they passed it in a way which means only got to go through one committee in the house. We will get the tax plan next week, and i think a vote on it very soon, this year, probably, in the senate. Got a strong chance of passing one very simple only on need 50 votes in senate to as the this tax cut plan if they cant get 50 republicans to say yes to tax cuts there is something wrong with Republican Party Everybody Knows it, the idea, that very last minute, the republicans would stumble, cant cut taxes i just cant believe in wildest demonstrators that would actually happen so i say yes, you are will you will get a tax cut yes why market goes up again this morning.

Member of congress who lynned in on a phone call from the president of the United States, to a young wife. And in his way tried to express that opinion is a brave man a fallen hero, he knew what he was getting himself into because he enlisted there is no reason to enlist he enlisted he was where he wanted to be exactly where he wanted to be with exactly the people he wanted to be with and his life was taken. That was the message. That was the message that was transmitted.

You know general kelly he gave the American People 17 minutes civic lesson on one of the most sacred processes we have in this country how we honor our fallen, it was quite remarkable most of us spent a lifetime in the military, we touched this process from wrapping our soldiers when killed getting off battle field consorting them home knocking on family door telling them loved one is day he had to staying with the familyi family weeks of a time all part of that process this man john kelly what makes this so different he is gold star parent he is on receiving end of that process that we participated in he got himself together, to come out there, and deliver that message to the American People, i am so proud of him, i tell you what. We all meet agreed americans in lives the American People have got exposed to a Great American here, were not going to here this is not end of john kelly quite a Remarkable Museum being. Shared the story for the first time i think publicly about his own son losing his life in afghanistan i want to say that is why we stand for the american flag. Absolutely. I want to ask you general what does this tell us about general kellys leadership inside the white house what kind of white house helping the president reason i is this a moment where we get, a peek inside how the white house is run, and learn about one top deputy . I think it does we can speculate a little bit we have a very strong leader here obviously the president has enormous respect and regard for. I think he is kind of disciplining the information process that goes to the president , so not half hazard everybody doesnt have access when they want it i think also relies on general kellys judgment making decisions even though they may be a subject Matter Expert in the room other than general kelly doing this, i think he also helps to validate the president i think did it over this whole issue never should have been in Public Domain this way it is what congresswoman did exposing this family unnecessarily. You are a Great American thank you for that a short break when we come back weve got final thoughts from this allstar panel. Stay with us. It was worse. A sinkhole opened up under our museum. Eight priceless corvettes had plunged into it. Chubb was there within hours. They helped make sure it was safe. And we opened the next day. Maria what a show.
