We will tell you about that. Joining us to talk about it, pollster and president of the slansky and partners like carter. Global economic editor and Fox News Contributor head of the xmen next counsel donald trump president ial Campaign Steve cortez is here. Good to see you. Good morning. Good morning. Love to get that painting on errancy that gdp. Maria read Michael Whitner from witmer antiques and art on last week and he was sure that he was going to go for more than 100 million. The price is staggering that it actually sold for. Unbelievable. Good times in the markets. Maria thats what i think to you. The massive diamond and i thought is that an indicator. Pretty incredible. A lot to talk about. House ways and Means Committee chairman and congressman kevin brady because. Ways and means and alumni congressmen with us. Reagan economic adviser dr. And author suzanne centers. You dont want to miss. The potential set back after wisconsin senator ron johnson unexpectedly announced a no vote on the current version of the plan saying it benefits corporations at the rents a Small Business. I wouldnt vote for the senate fission. Theres a real problem in terms of the treatment of passthrough entities. Remember when they established a framework, they recognized it to make americans see corp. , competitive globally, we also have to make sure we dont did the past or is behind. Dagen pastors at 25 . President trump added to the hill today to meet with House Republicans over the tax overhaul which is expected to pass in the chamber today.

Do have a problem in 20 teen. Refilled on health care. The American People give us the key to the car. We can get out of the garage. Maria writer they are such a hard time . The Senate Republicans and i hate to say this but i think its the truth. Senate republicans, some of them despise the president in such a personal way that they are obstructing the agenda just in another cell. Theyd rather talk about cutting taxes and quite frankly republicans are small than we ever imagined and the tax code by the way k street loves the tax code because its so byzantine, so onerous. The mechanism by which lobbyists largely control and are complicit and not. Maria the tax plan the majority of americans with the truth of the plan. They believe the wealthy will see most of the benefits. Thats actually not even true. According to the quinnipiac poll, voters disapprove of the republican plan. 61 say the wealthy would benefit the most. 24 say they would mainly benefit. This is all messaging. One of the things ive inherit if not they disapprove of that, if they dont understand whats being presented right now. People are saying im not sure what to look at. Democrats have done a good job of consistently messaging against what tax reform is going to do. They started by saying it will benefit the wealthy which weve all seen is not necessarily the case, the people are afraid its not going to benefit the people its supposed to. So while its republicans, theyve done a much better job with tax refund on health care. Still a very united front against it as they been trying as a lot of mass shootings, all other things that catch the attention away from tax reform and on to gun control and onto other things. They havent been able to get the traction to get people to understand it and they keep changing things. The challenges this is really complicated. Just as straightforward cutting tax rate by x . Doing things on deductions with differences between word ron johnson was upset about pivot corporations and tax through, for instance well partnerships. There are winners and losers in this plan is then often happens in a case like this, losers are louder than winners. Losers are very discreet. Maria had been questioning that as well. My first question from the getgo, way to pastors get 20 of corporate skit 20 . The answer is gotten from this group in washington is look, dont forget the corporations also pay 20 on dividends. So dont think the corporations get funny. Pastors or attacks with individual returns the corporations are taxed through corporate returns and they are not lowering the individual rates, especially at the high end as much as they want to lower corporate rates. Theyre effectively cod in the middle. If youre a top lawyer at a Law Firm Committee that the individuated 3926 . Or do you get 20 or 25 . Its hard to know where to put these individuals because they are in a middle ground. They are not corporations and not merely someone on the payroll. The macro planets are rates are confiscatory mis of Economic Growth. The average economic worker hasnt had a pay raise in this century, 27 team. Is it difficult . Yeah, but thats on the congress. That is why we have speaker ryan, leader mcconnell. Right now in my opinion, both of them should be fired already. If they dont get this done they absolutely should be fired. Youre making a really good point because what you see right now is a swamp inaction. People are not Trusting Congress to get it done. Can they all get on the same page . A lot of folks said they have seven years to think about what they are going to do. Here we are adhering to the election and it still seems they cant get on the same page. Swamp inaction is one way to describe it. I would say sausage making inaction is another way. This is a very messy process and particularly in this case is there so many moving parts, a lot of americans are out there watching saying what is a miss for me . Better off or worse off. Thats where it comes in. Its hard to say you are better off. Is very clear they were focused on the middle class here, but a lot of questions on the edges of what that means. Now they are throwing in health care and thats confusing people what did that mean. That could be a hot issue that could make people want to take a step back. Maria Susan Collins is one of those people. Maria more people with insurance. With. Weve got to get to weve got to get to this because she is responding to the news that attorney general Jeff Sessions to investigate allegations leveled against her. Watch. The uranium one story has been debunked countless times by members of the press, independent expert. It is nothing but a false charge that the Trump Administration is trying to drum up in order to avoid tension being directed at them. This is such an abuse of power and it goes right at the rule of law. Maria abuse of power. To bond. What do you think . When i watch rambo style because they think she believes it. I really think she believes this garbage. Uranium has not been debunked. We absolutely need a special counsel. Not just because they were corrupt. That is well documented and the Clinton Foundation was a slush fund. As a cartel in many ways. In this case, most of the corruption was there own advertisement. It jeopardizes the United States. The massive amount of uranium lead this country and we dont know where or when. We dont know where it went after that in exchange for 150 million in the Clinton Foundation by 100,000 directly to bill clintons bank account for one speech in moscow a conversation with putin. If you want to talk about russias story, our campaign, the trump campaign, no delusion. The more they research, thousands of hours investigating, no pollution. The real russias stories that the clintons. Maria is this a story . I dont think its been debunked. I think a lot of people are really interested in whats happened, but a lot of people are quite tired of which had scenarios. People say lets get the trump agenda time because thats why donald trump is a not bad. They want to see tax reform done, health care done. They want to see more and fighting. People look at this is just that. I will say that other trump artist in. I was investigated in the longer shes out there talking like this, the better. Honestly, the longer shes the face of the democratic party, the better donald trump is going to do. The question about the investigation should the president be able to effectively order up an investigation into a political opponent . That the people are concerned about. Thats one of the issues people are concerned about. Maria thats a fair point. Well take a break. An 18 year veteran of the Baltimore Police forces clinging to his life this morning pretty incredible story. He was shot in the head for the gunman is still on the run. All the details coming up.

Well, the student loan problem is a massive problem obviously. You have a lot of people graduating with dead in the 75 of the graduates now graduate with that come is that the really big problem. What is really starting to happen is you see people trying to make everything work from 400, 600 coming 800 a month in trying to afford housing it to impossible. The house is set to vote on tax reform that could change the way families pay for education. The provision of the bill allows families to pay for 10,000 annually from 529 College Savings plans to fund private education for high school.

Yeah, whats really happening is a lot more conversation going on around the kitchen table. You now have a significant investment made on behalf of the child who maybe takes im not dead, but also the parents participating in now. You really hate to think about return on investment on a degree in hard terms, do you really need to now. You need to think about what about that particular degree in where you go to school.

Yet i think a lot of folks particularly given their major, liberal arts for example they not be something they can monetize. Would they be better off and Vocational Training or simply going to work. I think the whole discussion around the cost of college in the investment in college which we probably didnt look at it as much 10 to 15 years ago in now way really is having an important conversation happening when your child is 16, 17, 18 years old or making the decisions of other technical school, liberal arts degree, people have to have those conversations and they are not easy conversations.

What is your outlook for holidays, shopping. The consumer has really shown some strength. Thats as healthy as we had have them in a long time. We have created over 2 million jobs your today these are people that really had money in their pocket and theyre spending it. Theyre feeling good that money in their pocket. I expect a pretty decent Holiday Season. Would you still put new money to work here. I really want to look at what corporations had done year to date. I know there is a lot of sentiment out there. But you really had to look at earnings. When youre coming close to hundred 40 in earnings. And earnings. That is huge. Any kind of Corporate Tax cut. That could add another 5 of earnings. What happens if they dont get something done or if they under deliver. Weve have a real pause here in the last week to two weeks. Finally the Headline News is starting to get to investor. Another passing the tax regulation and in what economic what economic effect is a can have and it really well had economic effect on people out there. Weve a new fed chair coming in relatively soon. And we had Interest Rate hikes in december i think that is expected but what is a forecast can be. Can we get some more volatility in the next couple months. They might assemble a stumble a couple times on this tax bill. I would actually argue that theyre not in a pass the thing you have to expect a major selloff. At least a 5 selloff. That would be a pullback to buy. I think they will come to some kind of agreement and i think some kind of text legislation is going to be passed. I think Corporate America will be happy. I really been focused on productivity. I think one of the reasons it was was a lack of productivity growth. We know had two quarters in a row of productivity growth. It seems like they are finally investing in their workers. Is that sustainable. Are we in a new higher productivity era. We have those projections at the fourth quarter. We could start seeing real sustainable Economic Growth. But lets be sensitive to the fact that the consumer can be very finicky. If they feel threatened they will stop spending. Bringing technology to make it better. Look at walmart as an indicator of how workingclass americans are doing. Theres also some news about our they can charge more in stores and online. Are there other companies that we should be looking at to say this is how americans are really doing. One of those crazy little statistics 90 of the population in this country lives within 10 miles of one of their stores. If you want to know how while the consumer is doing look at walmart sales. Im not really worried about that. What is a forecast Going Forward. The earnings today were pretty good earnings. Top and bottom line growth. But if there guidance for the season is soft that could be a real problem. These markets had slowed down. What is the worry. Is it uncertainty about the tax plan. And the fact that Interest Rates are going higher now. Headline risk is deftly part of that consumers attitude right now. But weve have all along. People are like maybe weve gone a got a little bit too far too fast. They should be out any minute. Thank you. Hollywood legend is here. She talked about Sexual Harassment in hollywood.

To the three basque law players i say you are welcome. Go out and give a big thank you to the president of china who made a your release possible and have a great life. There are many pitfalls a on a long and winding road of life. Plus talk about holy horse power. Check this out. What the holy father plans to do. The wall street journal in the Global Economic editor is here. Ive been looking for to seeing that pope story. As more consistent with who he is. Lets talk walmart for a second. Better than expected on both revenue and earnings. Also key revenue measure. Walmart is saying that the u. S. Ecommerce sales were 50 from a year ago. What is your reaction. It is a good sign for consumers. Have been talking about that. As we head into the Holiday Shopping season. We look like some of the big retailers are doing all right. We had had 3 growth for the last three and half months. Another three months a 3 growth. There up almost 3 . I think its a great sign. They are not where we need to get wages but wages are starting to pick up. They had been undermined by amazon in their growth. From a Company Strategic perspective. It also is encouraging because you see some of these companies and you wonder if they are gonna change for the times. Obviously if they said that. They really are moving forward and i think that is a great sign for the economy. Joining join in the conversation this morning. Kevin brady. And Threes Company actress and author of two books to his Company Suzanne somers she has been an actors in actress and entrepreneur. Making the final push to tax reform. There are concerns over differences between house and senate plan. I feel really good about where we are and i think were to see a real strong boat. They gets our economy going again. I would not vote for this senate version. There is a real problem here in the equitable treatment of past remedies. He is the first republican to come out against the belt and the senate saying it benefits corporations joining me right now is the chairman of the house ways and means subcommittee. Thank you for joining me. Why do the corporations get a tax rate of 20 . And pastors are at 25 percent. That is a Sticking Point for ron johnson. How did you come up with that. Corporations as you know double tax. It is to lower both rates by the same proportion. We have also carved out for the First Time Ever business income within the passthroughs so that they are moving in away to a separate and distinct from compensation income. It is a balanced approach in my view. There will continue to be discussion and drama back and forth. But the bottom line is i think this comes out of the house today. I can have to change anything in regards to the state and local income taxes. In terms of putting attacks on certain incomes. Where some people will be able to deduct that. The current version of this bill has gained the support of the overwhelming majority members of the house. We will go into conference there is no way that it will be more stressful for anybody in a higher tax state. And the compromise has currently crafted is gonna stand. A lot of provisions in the senate bill now have sunset the individual income tax provision in particular expire after 2026. If this comes through a Conference Committee with those kinds of sunsets and expirations for individuals is a house can have any trouble passing that . Anytime youre talking about tax policy youve got to look at the totality of the package. The way we had designed this package is to offer permanent relief and we think it is something that is worth pursuing. Some of our provisions you will see a conference that comes together to try to reconcile these issues. I think the larger point is that you look at the structure of these two bills. One is about to pass in the house. In the structure is largely the same. There is differences but it is not as if this is mars and venus. The senates proposal that they would delay the Corporate Tax cut. In such a hurdle to them growing. Why is it potentially possibly make sense to delay that delete that cut for a full year. Our preference would not be to delay it. It would be to have an Immediate Tax cut. In and the downstroke in investment and priming priming the pump and getting the economy moving. The only argument that they would be making as this is largely a scoring issue. These are the types of things that can be negotiated after both houses when the belt was first outline. There was focus on middle class. There was focus on job growth. In a number of things across the board. It really resonated with the american voter. They have done a really good job of debunking each of those. Its not for the middle class is for the wealthy. We might say that not necessarily going to be simpler it will be more complicated. What do you want the American People to focus on the most and how are you going to do that. I want them to focus the most on the real tax relief i was at a family wedding over the weekend. You want this bill to pass. We are coming into adulthood. In one of two things is can happen. They are going to be hobnobbing around trying to patch together to jobs where they will be in an economy where there is opportunity and it is expansive and growth oriented. That is the bottom line. The u. S. Is the big economy in the world. Most of them disapprove of the tax plan. 52 percent of voters look at that. The wealthy would benefit the most. And only 24 say the middle class would namely benefit. What do you make of these numbers and how do you push back on the idea that in fact your plan is raising taxes on a portion of americans as a way to pay for a big decline in a Corporate Tax rate. Go to the joint committee on taxation. They put out a document that was before the ways and Means Committee. 70 of the individual tax relief in this bill goes individuals and families under 200,000. That is middle class tax relief. All by the Committee Process and through the floor. And they had been offering amendments to replace and restore the status quo of the tax code which is dissolving underneath us. That is no pathway forward. There is gonna can be this pole and that pole. If that is what drives your ultimate decisionmaking get out of the business of legislating instead come up with a plan make sure it works. Make sure its inclusive and robust in dynamic and show people what its all about. This plan and the more people that look at it the better it looks. So are you raising taxes on a portion of the people. Its a hyped up question. There is no way that someone like me can make a statement that said nobodys Tax Liability is going to change under this plan. The larger question is are you driving middle class tax relief and the answer is yes. 5,000 in tax relief. My constituency look and it really care about the equations by which i get tax relief im just looking for tax relief. On the business side go to two in adults. The public is the at t ceo last week said if hr one passes they will invest in additional billion dollars in the u. S. Economy. I was at a Small Manufacturer not long ago. They said if we get to where we are proposing in terms of rates on passthroughs they will move from spending 30 million in their plant next year to 50 million. That is growth and activity. We will be watching. Thank you so much for joining us. You see a late basque while players arrested in china return home. What they said to President Trump. [vo] progress is an unstoppable force.

Major average also on track. Jordan is right now is Raymond James ceo paul riley. So record results for the company congrats to you. What is behind this performance. The biggest factors are what we had had record retention of advisors. We had been a big net recruiter now for five years. That combined with the market going up 25 percent. An Interest Rate spreads are at an alltime high. They really combined. How do you keep this going. That is a hard thing when you talk to analysts is what is a market can do. I think tax reform will impact that. And certainly in packed that. 70 of our clients are positive on the market said so that just that outlook will impact that. I dont think they will stay there. I think they will start giving up more the interest to clients. And as a pressure Going Forward but so far it is a good market. And the american net worth is now close to hundred trillion dollars. Its a percentage of gdp. Do you worry at all that we might be heading back into some kind of bubble territory that markets are getting overextended and there might be a correction coming down the line. Theres always corrections. Anytime you have a run like this. You will expect some kind of correction. Generally they are small. What happens a tax to tax reform up and down could impact that. The underlying fundamentals of the economy are very good. In asia fairly healthy. This is not a time to be talk about bubbles. In a time we have those bubbles. You worry a little bit but i think a lot of the earnings are driven. Partly because of tax reform and positive outlook. I would not call it a bubble territory. One thing i see. Are you worried about that going to be an obstacle in future growth. To the extent that it does impact trade and the sales are not happening it well. A lot of the companies are global in array. When you had earnings. When i was doing more Global Companies when we had trade restrictions you would do better in that company dash a country. It depends on the severity of the trade rules. I want to ask about policy coming out of this white house. This president has been the least regulatory president. We know the have of the Consumer Protection agency is stepping down lowering the Corporate Tax rate well not have an impact on investment decisions. This one after he met with the economic national council. If it goes through. If the text from goes through when you increase your investment. The other hands up. What you think happens as a result of this Corporate Tax rate. From a company like ours it probably doesnt change our strategy much. We are very longterm focus. More important if youre in a Small Business the business deductions the Small Businesses are created the net jobs. I think the tax change is important for them. If your private equity maybe not so much. What about the regulatory environment. Hes going to be stepping down from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau at the end of the month. What has his rollback and regulation meant for your firm. Theres a new red coming out every day. Just getting ready for the rule. We probably spend 20 million plus just getting ready for the delayed part of the rule. You add all of that regulation in and it was way down. Neither seen the leaders. Theyre all gonna say theyre cut back. We have not seen a lot of extra regulation that we have seen havent seen the regulations going away in our in the street yet. To the extent that you continue to grow the business and were not spending all of the time on compliance. The problem with the rules as they were overlapping and they were spending a lot of money without enough benefit for the rules and regulations. We hired 2000 people last year. We continue to hire. At the same pace. Paul, great to see you. The house is gearing up for a crucial vote on tax reform. Kevin brady about the legislation next. And then remember the awkward moment during the seat of the union rebuttal. Nothing has frustrated me more. The details on President Trumps on water bottle moment last night. Back in a moment.

President trump had to the hill to meet with republican senator tax reform vote. Hurdles remain. Ron johnson is a note. Congressman peter roscoe addresses the issue with the passthrough rate. Corporations are double taxed to get them in a 20 rate in the passthrough of 25 rate to lower both raids by the same proportion. Weve also carved out for the First Time Ever business income within passthrough so that they are moving in a way that is separate and distinct from compensation income. So it is a balanced approach.

Wisconsin republican ron johnson prevention the senate plan yesterday coming against the current version of the bill with concerns for corporations. Texas senator john korn and working towards a solution. I wouldnt vote for the senate version. Theres a real problem here in terms of the treatment of the passthrough entities. Robs been very clear about the changes he wants to see in the bill and weve made some improvements in the direction but weve still got some work to do and we are sort of in the middle of a ballgame right now. My hope is we can get them back. Maria President Trump heads to the help today to meet with House Republicans expected to approve their version of the tax code overhaul. Joining me now is house ways and Means Committee chairman congressman kevin brady. Good to you. Thank you for joining us. Inks, maria. Maria congratulations. Youve been working on this all year. You are in the final hours to get this vote later today. How are you feeling ahead of this so . Out, we do have the vote. This is an historic step no doubt, but not the last. Lots of areas that continue to think through improvements or members continue to bring improvements as well. It is a big step, not the last day. I see this Getting Better every step we take. Maria lets go through the issues people are brought up in one of them is that ron johnson is talking about, the idea you got the passthrough companies with a 25 tax rate in the Corporate Tax rate of 20 . Our passthrough company is not as advantageous as a Big Corporation with a 25 rate . We are putting hundreds of billions of dollars at tax relief to her pastor businesses for the first time in history. We do it in three approaches in the house. One super low rate for the mainstream pastors of every type of business and other pastors with two options to choose whats best for them. I know hes passionate about the bill. Weve met several times about it. Make your best case. You dont win every policy debate you are and tax reform. Make that case. At the end of the day youve got to decide are you going to defend the status quo. Keep the horrible tax code in place or make your best ideas and move this forward. That is what i think every senator and every house member should do. Now is the time to make the case. Thats when you really want to combine and look at these two plans together. You are open to change at this late moment in time. I see this as a huge step out of the house. I look at what the senate is doing as well. Lets take the best of both and if theres a better design, lets move with that. We are on schedule to get to the president s desk by the end of the year so everyone stepped up. If one keeps the process going in the end of the day lets get this done. Maria deal of wiggle room in the situation . In your chamber, peter king is doing a no vote because of the treatment of state and local taxes are you up into putting a cap in their to appease someone like peter king . I run the numbers up and down the district. You see tax relief at every income level. Its not delivered to the one provision. It is through though rate, and appears district thats it does in dollars per caught up in that. What they do commit to and will continue with our lawmakers, lets work to improve this and make this better. But lets do it with in the designs of the house. Maria whats the push back with raising taxes with the corporate rave. We dont. It is separate from the Corporate Tax rate. You can ask businesses we are doing away with a whole lot of special provisions to lower the rate on a 20 its interested in the ability and sectors are provisions within their own sect or her. Industry has to contribute something to Lower Corporation for the most part stepping up and doing them. Maria there are winners and losers here. For example, why the decision to spend 650 billion on a family tax credit. In other words, if you dont have kids you dont get the credit. Where you live, what you do, youll really dig to flickr from looks like. What we did was we change the bracket so we could help drive tax relief at every level. A lot of these families are in effect impact by state and local with the amt and others to help people. We are not done. We want in high tax states but what we dont want to do is continue to provide tax rates for some and some state across the board for the country. Im convinced we continue to provide the rule. People wonder why you didnt do too much. Capital gains as well as the carried interest of action. During the campaign, President Trump kept saying how unfair the carried Interest Deduction is where you have private equity guys to make certain revenues when in fact its ordinary incomes. Rather than a 20 rate. Whats the plan for Capital Gains taxes. You have to have i. Risks. You have to improve that gain and hold it and you have to today. The hedge funds are routed to business, but it is preserved for that traditional real estate partnership. The Industrial Park i wouldve liked to do myself. Our biggest hurdle was we did not repeal the obamacare taxes with the two plane 8 investment tax that frankly needs to go. Im hopeful at some point the senate can get that done because that helps us in a big way. It shows a little more fairness. Doesnt it . Is obamacare taxes need to get out. The segment is trying to do what it can in that regard and im hopeful at the end of the day at some point they can see. Why was an important reprint individual mandate. They are losing favor with americans today pick 52 of americans only 25 support the plan for the majority of those polled believe the wealthy will benefit the tax code overhaul. This is possibly because people dont understand the nuts and bolts of it, but also right there in your face about the individual mandate. Would you say to those people as they are going to be at a disadvantage by losing insurance. All i know its in our town Hall Meetings and discussions when people really learn the details of this, they are so supportive. Eight out of 10 americans Want Congress to deliver tax reform. They want lawmakers to work with President Trump to get this done. I feel the strong support they are. The individual mandate that the senate is considering at this point. They can afford it. Those are modest middle income families. Of course anyone who wants the Affordable Care act plan can do so. That freedom to choose remains the freedom to choose not to have that will be given to them. Well watch them in the senate as they work through that issue. We dont have it in the house version of the bill today. Maria what you think the plan will look like once you get to conference and start really debating this in a couple weeks. So there is a surprising amount of Common Ground and i think it is because we work with President Trump for several months to get towards one framework. We do one target on the wall. The house and senate to credit are driving targeting towards that target and a good way. We will blend the best of both workers a third design is better we will choose that. Theres a lot of work to do, but ink about this after three decades. The house taking action, and the senate assumed to. We finally got a chance to fix this broken tax code and not something to be excited about. Tree into your meeting with him today. The mac we are going to get a chance of the House Republicans to rally and then we will lock out and finalize tax reform. Tree into historic linear. Good to see you here. Thank you so much.

Good morning to you President Trump has one scheduled event on this day that is to head up to capitol hill talk with House Republicans as they are set to vote on their tax bill, there is an immense amount of confidence from republicans they have votes all but locked up house ways and means chairman brady moments ago. We do have the votes, look this is a historic step but not the last step, there are lots of areas here where i continue to think through improvement members continue to bring improvements as well it is a big step it is not the last step, and actually i see this Getting Better, every step in the that we take. One this likely movers out of house sfoef will shift entirely on Senate Republicans and there are brand new concerns in the Senate Senator ron johnson the first republican yesterday, to say he is against that chambers tax bill specifically two things, one the process, but also about secondly the corporations he feels would be favored over tax remember. There is a real problem in terms of of the equitable treatment past remember indonesia. Back to hows bill, no democrats are expected to vote for it nancy pelosi says, that she feels basically that this throws scrap to the middle class gives a big payday for corporations, President Trump in tweet last night said the democrats are simply obstructionists. They may not vote for it today but i have hard time believering they are not going to vote for it at all the states that donald trump won like north dakota like, senator donnelly, like cinnamon Heidi Heitkamp traveling with president you dont think getting votes. One, can when this gets reconciled to floor both chambers maybe some democrats will jump on then if it gets to finish line but keep in mind maria in senate they are considering this obamacare individual repeal individual mandate repeal at this point for democrats in the senate to jump on that might be tough play, if that is eventually considered in the bill. Very good point thank you so much blake burman at the white house this morning joining us to talk more about the tax line former reagan Economic Advisory art will have a laffer. Do you think ron johnson has a point will this treat businesses differently pushback as you heard from peter roskam corporations get taxed twice a 20 corporate rate then also getting taxed on dividend treatments, on other things, that another 20 that is how they square the circle corporate 20 passthrough 25 . I would like to see ron johnson win this get it but i sure as heck dont want to see him not vote all discussions, are focused on the wrong issue, they are all looking at static analysis the reason to get Economic Growth we want everyone in america to pay more in taxes, if we can, because they get jobs they heretofore did not have higher wages makes pay more in taxes Economic Growth is the answer, Economic Growth is the one engine that creates tax revenue so what were looking at here, is a bill that promotes growth not static analysis who pays more who pays less that is silly talk you need to talk only about the Dynamic Growth that is the key to this bill. Maria all right you make really good points i am glad you said that i wanted your take on this, i know, you know, you thought about this worked on this so long, so doesnt bother might be silly talk to you but not silly talk to new yorker or new jerseyan going to see taxes go up it doesnt bother you then that eliminating the state and local deduction will mean higher taxes for some people, and doesnt bother you those people are going to be paying that higher tax as way to pay for 20 corporate race because you are all about growth want 20 leads to growth everybody benefits you are saying. What i am saying that doesnt pay for lowering of the Corporate Tax rate by itself and revenue because lowering the Corporate Tax rate by itself nothing else in bill would generate huge increases in revenue next 10 years, because of Economic Growth, because of less tax sheltering less tax evasion, people moving corporations back in u. S. All behavioral aspects maria there is never been a period of major growth tax revenues did not increase dramatically that is exactly what is going to happen here this is all phony accounting that they are discussing, and has no sensess whatsoever to be in discussion. But that is all New York Times some other people can talk about, it is Economic Growth that generates revenues period this bill will generate Economic Growth everyone will pay more in taxes, because they have higher paying jobs more jobs, more profits higher stock market value, that is what we all want now there are some groups, that are k excluded that is retirees dont have any source of income would be the get more jobs they do have problems, but all of the dynamics the economy will do far, far better with this bill. Steve cortes here. How you doing. That point of growth i think it is amazing to me a lot of people on capitol hill have suddenly become deficit hawks almost like. Amazing. Funny religion now after living entire life of inequity now high and moral 20 trillion dollars of debt but to me i look at debt, because were unwilling politically as a country to touch entitlements i think that is a fact if that is the case there is no way out, other than growth, isnt that reality . That is it, you are exactly correct the discussion that should be had, of course, this bill generates lots and lots of growth, the least competitive country in the world, we have all of these tax do you know how much tax sheltering goes on in Corporate Income the second tax rate 17 , 16, over half of all Corporate Income is sheltered. My goodness tax evasion enormous every won knows you look at any literature choice of business forms where headquarters are devoid of looking at Economic Growth those factors pay for themselves over and over again. You talk about all the benefits, that we get from the business side of the tax, in place bringing down corporate rate 20 lowering the rate on individual side there is winners and losers that people for instance who get hurt, by repealing state and local Tax Deduction why not put aside individual stuff now focus on business taxes, to spur kind of growth you are talking about, or muddying waters doing individual stuff which is like i say creating backlash and winners and losers. It doesnt really create winners and losers but you are completely right when you have 70 things in a bill people find some of them they dont like so going to use that to bash the others i want to bill just cut corporate rate from 35 to 15 nothing else leave it loan at that biggest engine of growth unfortunately they put in all other stuff, and just is confusing as you say muddies waters, we should get rid of the individual state payment tax payments, should get rid of that deduction, but we also have a pickup with amt what i think might be good compromise is 50 of the state local Tax Deduction eliminated with amt means you come up pretty close to even. So you are saying that you are saying you would like to see some movement on this then because you say 50 you want tax in there . Is that what you are saying. I just want this through the house and senate, maria, it should be eliminated entirely correctly new tax reform should be no state and local Tax Deductions period. Is that going to trigger an exodus out of high tax states i do believe, that when over time, this will pressure the governors mayors of cities and states that have high taxes, on like new york, to pull in spending, lower taxes, overtime it will have an impact. Do you think it is going to have impact right away people move out of new york why does 53 , if you bring nothing in florida so full out of new york connecticut, other states there is no room left for anyone additional to leave the states for a couple years you got to get apply a ticket seven years ahead of time no seriously, of course, it many lead to more exodus in who arely reason i states in tennessee no income ever bringing money with them huge increase adjusted income net migration surplus two Million Dollars do they talk about our state no illinois, kentucky, tennessee kentucky, west virginia, it is shocking about yes k they will move faster, but there should not be a state and local Tax Deduction for federal tax i should not have to pay new yorkers share of taxes. How come they didnt do anything on carried interest. I have no idea what went through minds we should 4 a broad based flat tax all income treated exactly the same taxed same rate from first dollar to last dollar this was jerry browns plan in 1992 still best plan ever proposed.

Amazon you dont think amazon as having relationship with upper end with Luxury Brands because you think of amazon as value. That is right, conveniences not necessariaspirational part. To a certain extent they have seen it cross other categories decided to hold back i am not sure wrong decision a lot of people think that amazon partners with a brand the way virus partners with a host over long term not good for the brand. Just pulls down prices creates suboptimal distribution bad for brand equity you could argue amazon partnering with half billion consumers fanatical investors provide cheap capital to basically destroy brands they are using brands as bait swapping them out for private label nothing new, we just never seen anyone this good at it. What benefit do they get by going after the Luxury Brands does that undermine their own brand . And kind of more mass appeal . The other way around you rather have Luxury Brands move down easier the moment you have chanal every brand will follow the top the way to go, they would make a lot of accommodations huge efforts to try to get aspirational brands, they set the tone, they immediately the moment you see a burka bag you take store seriously strategic reasons.

Hillary clinton responding to possible special counsel to probe why you rainium one deal attorney general Jeff Sessions calling on special federal prosecutors to overview certain issues that could link the deal, russian, Clinton Foundation same time a new interview. This appears to be the politicization of the Justice Department and our justice system. This uranium one story has been debunked countless times by members of the press by independently experts. It is nothing but a you know, a false charge. This is such an abuse of power goes right at the rule of law. Maria joining us right now cohost of the five Juan Williams good to see you thanks for joining us. Good morning. Interesting to here her talk about abuse of power. What do you think . Why do you say is that. Well because of the rue rainium won deal. Here her talk about abuse of power people concerned president ial power to punish pill rivals not just her i think lots of people think president obama could have gone after john mccain on kate 5 15 after he beat him in 08 election didnt have george w. Bush could have gone after al gore on buddhist fund raising deal did not happen we dont punish rival setting Law Enforcement on them. Could have done something about email scandal with Hillary Clinton didnt is that abuse of power. Segz or barack obama. Barack obamas, he could have been involved with that i dont know, but i am saying i dont know the details but when you start to see republicans or democrats punishing a political opponent. I got. You that is like a third world autocracy. President obama we know Justice Department told us initially by lawsuits that president Obama Administration used irs as a weapon against conservative political groups, they concede that had not even up for this has already i am not saying that would excuse other abuses can you concede president obama did exactly that. It wasnt president obama irs said they were looking for people who were abusing nonprofit status to pursue political aims not onlying to conservative groups, but liberal groups what you are talking about, is trying to set a new standard so it can be in the path there was no suggestion this was done at direction of the president of United States president barack obama. In this case that we are talking about now, President Trump sent tweets that we have on the record saying, where is my Justice Department why arent you procuriursuing hilla clinton. The problem with president saying anything or is the problem there might be investigation. In other words, would you be all right with this if the president hadnt tweeted anything about it . Well if there was substance to it in other words, i thought that attorneys general sessions was very forthcoming in the he was interviewed by Congressional Committee Judiciary Committee earlier this week what he said was we have a standard, it is in the books. If there is a certain level, of implication there was a crime committed we can pursue this. Maria you dont see that level at irs targeting scandal. No in fact what irs targeting scandal as i explained across the board comes with but i think it was the right that fell, largely reasonably so that lions share of groups being targeted for abusing their standing, conservative groups. Why do you there i she took fifth . She took fifth. The number two woman in irs took fifth. She said clearly she thought it had become a political you know. You can say no come on. To irs target we discussed this obviously the irs felt the Public Perception this is away we are engaged in political activity but there was in fact ultimately no finding there was abuse of power it was abuse of power, it was abuse of power. We cant connect it to however we can substantively correctly say conservative groups were targeted for political reasons as political weapon. Sounds like, that your concern that is the president is getting himself involved not that there might be investigation. If you have vacation a legitimate basis for an investigation i am all for it, the political crime you dont want anyone beyond political reach. Is there a legitimate not so far what Hillary Clinton said in piece that maria played is actually right that when you look at people who have looked at this issue including, Justice Department officials previously, said there was no basis for any action. Maria all right we leave it there, thank you so much Juan Williams joining us, the first republican senator to come out against the tax plan, will he about the last Stuart Varney will weigh in not even to his with idea rejebing of our from hasbro, stay with us.

Getting hoarse there have i been shouting at tv again. Yes, i have a cold, and i was losing voice yesterday but coming back. It is it is well done. To answer your question. Which was im sorry, okay. Maria tax reform plan. Look you remember, when john mccain senator mccain cast deciding no vote and killed obamacare reform. I am just wondering who would be that lone republican in the senate kills tax cuts the growth agenda frankly kills the republican party. Is there such a person . To Lindsey Graham yesterday was saying, if we vote no, on this tax deal we will destroy the republican party. The best way to destroy the gop is to vote against this tax deal so states stakes high who would be that person . Who would be the no vote senators Collins Mccain corker flake, they could. Some on fence some against a this moment i would not want to be that republican senator who kills tax cuts a growth agenda and republican party. We are on the cusp on brink of being at that place. Maria dont you think some guys are staying close want to say make the bill better. For example ron johnson republican wisconsin yesterday he was saying i cant vote for it interpreted by market as no vote, this morning he is saying, he was called by president last night, the president is going to work his tail off to get this fixed, johnson says i want to get this if i coufixed i want prog tax cut i am optimistic we can fix it i dont know where he stands not a no vote at this point.
