They were vowing to work with congress and the allies to address the plows dash mcflys. Welcome back. Good to have you here. The president is very critical of iran and the nuclear deal. Why not just pull out. I think the president really announce a conference of strategy and i think the nuclear deal is only part of that strategy. What he really emphasized is of the United States is now willing to use all insurance of National Power to new neutralize their aggression and the deal itself is a deeply flawed deal but one that he has given time and space to his diplomats in the u. S. Congress to try to work and fix. The certification what is the advantage of that over withdrawal. With the certifications. Im actually prepared to withdraw. The certification and recertification of the deal would have degraded that credibility of walking away. I think the still is not in the interests of the United States. I am prepared to give time and space to fix that deal but i will walk away from the deal in the deal is not fixed. If democrats dont join republicans and locking in tough conditions. Im willing to give that time and space as well because i want to roll out a comprehensive strategy using all of these instruments of National Power to really target that. I saw statement from the europeans a joint statement from the germans and the french and the british say that that they see and by the nuclear deal. They dont want to to go away. They think its actually honoring the deal of that. We are happy to talk about that. And strengthening some of the terms. How do you read their reaction. Over the past few months its been really interesting i think they have really gone from a posture of keep it to a posture of keep it in order to present that. That has been an interesting movement in the debate. They have actually set on three occasions im willing to look at strengthening the deal. Supplementing it. That is a significant shift in the european position and i think they are shifty because they are terrified that donald trump could walk away from this deal. The president said he is going to go to congress to try to get congress to write a new legislation that would have redlines that if i ran walked over it those redlines the u. S. Would automatically make the deal no and void and ive talked to some senators who have been working on this and what they are seen as physically things like intercontinental ballistic element. And try to get rid of the sunset provision that begins as early as eight years from now. What odds do you think exists for that beginning 60 votes in the senate and passing. It has not been a successful legislative session. But i would say to this is that the president is president is giving them an opportunity to come on board show bipartisan support in lockdown these conditions establish a framework will they not snap back immediately. Of course the president retains executive authority so if congress does not do this imagine has a backup plan where he could do this on his own using executive authority in moving forward with the europeans on the diplomatic route. Obviously their initial response is to be this violates the terms of the deal we wont change it. Do you think they will eventually make a decision to say that this nixes a deal and the sprint to a nuclear weapon. One has to plan for all of these contingencies and a Health Administration has a plan for all of these contingency. I think the smart play for them is to not get hysterical is to say that they are gonna going to keep the deal and try to divide that europeans from the americans and continued getting all of the benefits of the deal. The thing about this deal as it was never about the compliance it was about the delusion of the deal because it provided patient pathways to Nuclear Weapons by complying. It actually is a smart deal. Its smart for them to try to divide the trans aladdin nick divide. Thank you mark, its really good for you to be here. When we come back after Congress Fails to repeal and replace obamacare.

Youll see what a fair price is, and you can connect with a truecar certified dealer. Now youre even smarter. This is truecar. With these actions we are moving towards lower costs and more options in the Healthcare Market and taking crucial steps toward saving the American People from the nightmare of obamacare. Today is only the beginning in the coming months we plan to take new measures to provide our people with even more relief and more freedom. After repeated failures by republicans in congress to repeal and replace obamacare. He took matters into his own hands. Signing an executive order thursday that directs cabbage and agencies and less company has competency plans than those offered by the Affordable Care act. He would hold subsidy payments to those that sell them under subsidy payments. Lets bring in wall street journal columnist and deputy editor. And james freeman. And editorial page writer. Kate, lets start with the subsidy payments first getting a lot of criticism why did he do this. First these are payments that defray the cost of healthcare expenses. They had been ruled illegal by a federal judge and here is why. The original law entice states to set up exchanges with the premise of the subsidies in some states didnt. The question is whether they so that the subsidies. A federal judge has ruled that. There has not been an appropriation of congress by the money. Congress has declined to appropriate the money. It has been for months. Whether the Trump Administration should keep making the illegal payments. The question is what will happen next. The other issue is the larger reform of the Insurance Market through new Association Health care plans healthcare plans they are going to try to promote and the small plans whats that about. The white house executive order takes the modest steps to try to salvage an individual market. That they limited to 90 days because people were using it as a cheaper backdoor to having to avoid buying those. There hasnt been an incredibly high demand for this product but it could change now that obamacare has wiped out the individual market. Those would allow Small Businesses to band together to form really large pools. And the idea here is to provide more alternatives in individual marketplace so that not everybody has to pay these really high prices with really comprehensive plans. You think it would make sense if you are young. You need a plan for a year. Why not. Thats exactly right. Obamacare Affordable Care act. It was a flawed piece of legislation. They opt to take the penalty rather than join the plan. What you had was the basic idea to make it work was that all of the on under insured have to be forced into the exchanges to make the risk pool work. Population resisted that. And now some he has to clean up the mess and that is exactly what President Trump is doing by trying to create these alternatives with choices that would allow some of those to say i did not like it and i have a choice now. These are called junk plans. Is that fair. That is a charge from the left that basically decided what they wanted to have and what it must cover. We hear a lot about these plans and being less comprehensive and how can you know that and not know the individuals and needs and what kind of insurance they are looking for. This is a deliberate attempt to sabotage the law. They pretend that some of the market market is being disturbed but what it did was it prevented the market and half of the country you had one insurer in the individual marketplace. No competition. I think it is about a third now. Half of the counties in the country. And obviously a lot of other counties really had two competitors they dont want the product and theyre willing to pay a tax to avoid it. President obama said he wanted to rule by penn and phone. A lot of it can be undone administratively and especially in cases where he did not have the authority to subsidize. That is exactly the point. This is i can have the force of law in statutes. Arent they they kind of doing the reverse of what obama did. It directs agencies to develop rules that will be challenged in court and also rules take time to develop. If i could just add the charge that jump plan that they dont fit the obama care model. Employersponsored coverage that is exempt from much of obamacare. I think the solution here is ultimately if we want to get these payments back. They give republicans more freedom that they want and fewer mandates and then republicans vote for that. To induce congress to react and address it as law. When we come back. They declare war on Senate Republicans promising the primary challenges to all of the one republican incumbent. Or will they put the republican majority at risk. An entire click establishment on capitol hill has to go. You totanobodys hurt, new car. But there will still be pain. It comes when your Insurance Company says theyll only pay threequarters of what it takes to replace it. What are you supposed to do . Drive threequarters of a car . Now if you had Liberty Mutual new car replacement™, youd get your whole car back. I guess they dont want you driving around on three wheels. Smart. With Liberty Mutual new car replacement™, well replace the full value of your car. Liberty stands with you™. Liberty mutual insurance. You nervous . You may be at increased risk for pneumococcal pneumonia, that can take you out of the game for weeks, even if youre healthy. Pneumococcal pneumonia is a potentially serious bacterial lung disease that in severe cases can lead to hospitalization. It may hit quickly, without warning, causing you to miss out on the things you enjoy most. Prevnar 13® is not a treatment for pneumococcal pneumonia. Its a vaccine you can get to help protect against it. Prevnar 13® is approved for adults to help prevent infections from 13 strains of the bacteria that cause pneumococcal pneumonia. You should not receive prevnar 13® if you have had a severe allergic reaction to the vaccine or its ingredients. If you have a weakened immune system, you may have a lower response to the vaccine. The most common side effects were pain, redness and swelling at the injection site, limited arm movement, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, joint pain, less appetite, vomiting, fever, chills, and rash. Help protect yourself against pneumococcal pneumonia. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about prevnar 13®. We are declaring war on the public and establishment that does not back the agenda that donald trump ran on just voting is not good enough. Nobody is safe. We are coming after all of them and we are to win. The former white house chief of staff strategist declared war this week telling Foxs Sean Hannity that hes working to have those. Bennett said its necessary to drain the dc swap to get it moving on capitol hill. The strategy put the majority at risk. James freeman and bill immigrants. Dn what does steve bannon want. Is that really it. Lets just deal with what hes told sean hannity just voting for the agenda is not enough. If you are like him. 100 trump voting record thats not enough. What does that mean. You have to be going on television every other day if to be like steve bannon. If to be out there crusading and rabble rousing. The on that its not clear. Ultimately you are talking about voters inside of the states not just the debate. And they have to decide for themselves is where its not enough. It is pretty conservative. These are not the other way. We wouldve passed the obama care repeal if we would have have it. I one of the things i have seen that he may be overreaching. Anyone can go in. If your goal really is the trump agenda what we need is more republicans in the senate and if you are democrats. Ill see how this helps. For example its all mitch mcconnell. Theyre not even running for the trump agenda. That is the one promise he is exacting from this. And you must vote against him for later. Who do they want to replace them. I would say one last thing. For all of the talk about the republican establishment where there was a failure it is at most seven republicans. All the other ones voted for it. Rand paul was the great outsider. He kept he helped kill it repeal. They are not up either. These are the people who helped kill repeal and replace. Has to be annoying to the republican voter watching that gain where they have a whole bunch of varieties of repeal and they took turns voting yes or no so that they can claim in the future that they were on one side or the other and the end result was it didnt get done. I think it is very reasonable to expect that there is going to be a revulsion among the republican base. A lot of the people who really created this problem are not up for reelection. The thick think of rob portman who persuaded voters that they were restraining the government. They assured voters. Those are the targets in the future there is also the question of who they are going to run. He has lost a lot of it. Steve bennett had said in interviews. Secondly the primary republican candidate that is what happened to Luther Strange down there. The policy. What are they going to run on. This campaign is can be funded by bob mercer. And finally, there is donor confusion. What about the other republican donors out there who fund the republican candidates. What are they gonna make up Something Like this. I dont think too many of them are to get behind the crusade here had to decide whether they want to elect the people already in congress have been supporting trump to the state. Anyone can ruin it for other people. You can take down a few people but the question is can you see bannon has an agenda can you put people in through in congress that will get the agenda through. Lets have it out. Thats fine. Can they win a general. Im not sure. If they fail on taxes now. Im not sure a lot of voters will get a huge downside. I think it is a test for mitch mcconnell. Still ahead as President Trump takes President Trump takes his tax reform pitch on the road. They race to relive her a bill. Just how close are they. Kevin brady next. Our point is get it done this year. We want to wake up on new years day with a new tax system. Okay folks lets get the lady of the house back on her feet. And help her feel more strength and energy in just two weeks. Yaaay the complete balanced nutrition of ensure with 9 grams of protein and 26 vitamins and minerals. Ensure. Always be you. I am totally blind. And non24 can make me show up too early. Or too late. Or make me feel like im not really there. Talk to your doctor, and call 8442342424. We are in a fight and where to get those republicans and maybe a few of those democrats to raise their hands and you have so much money to spend in this wonderful country. In the gray economy that is why we have proposed tax cuts that are progrowth that was President Trump on wednesday night. On his desk before the end of the year. Welcome mister chairman, good to have you here. 20 . That is as high as hes can go on the Corporate Tax rate. Are you from with that also. Thats what it takes for a company to be competitive whether they are competitive on main street or around the world we want them to win. We want them to bring the earnings back to be reinvested in america. If we do that right which we well. Paychecks will grow. That mean a 25 rate for the passthrough rate that is Small Businesses youre sticking to 25 on that also. Were trying to drive that rate down for every business. Regardless of what size you are. You are the momandpop is the Biggest Company we have. It we know what it takes to be competitive against china and europe on main street as well. We have to drive those rates. Lets take some of the criticisms. Some of the framework that you guys had offered one of them concerns the state and local Tax Deduction which is crucial to getting the money by eliminating net to finance the lower rates and what you are getting some criticism from democrats and republicans. Here is where we are starting with. There is no criticism we need to lower the tax rates for everybody seeking keep more of what you earn. Secondly we know having a simpler code where we protect more of the first families earnings there is consensus there. So what we are looking at our the high rates of taxes that taxpayers pay in some of the states. We want to lower the tax rates for everybody and so we are listening and making sure that we understand how burdensome they are. There is a reason we havent set the rates for the brackets so that we can make sure we let people keep more of what they arent regardless of where they live. One of the things i am hearing particularly in new york and california have a lot of republican members including enough that they could kill their reform if to do something to ease that burden on the middle class taxpayers. They are talking about some kind of property Tax Deduction for middleclass families and taxpayers in the states is that true. We had have a number of ideas. One where we set the rates in the bracket. And how we address issues but also how we address those tough local issues like property taxes. That arent based on your ability to pay they are just painful. They brought us ideas on how we can address issues like that we are having the discussions and we have some at the end of the week this week as well. We will continue to stay at the table with them at the end of the day we want every american to keep more of what they earned regardless of where they live. This is on the table. Its something that youre thinking about. We are listening very carefully to their ideas. I dont know how families in these high tax states make it. The rates are just stunning and the government has a greater claim over your earnings than you do which is to me its hard to believe that that happens. Another criticism that ive heard even from some conservatives is that you are eliminating the personal exemption but in return you are doubling the standard deduction. What happens is some people say because ear getting rid of that. You are so can end up raising taxes on some middleclass tax payers what is your response to that. Its absolutely not true. It really helps with simple application. And eliminates the personal exemption there is a reason why plays such an Important Role in this plus we are lowering those rates at every level regardless of where youre at. In the 10 ]rightsquarebracket to zero. We provide tax relief all the way up the chain for modest income families and about. Those claims frankly they do have information. The other criticism you get a lot and this is from the democrats in particular is you are gonna blow a hole in the deficit. They head about a trillion and a half dollars of net tax cuts available to them there is no question tax reform done right will grow the economy. We know the current tax code holds us back. Its can help us balance at overtime you have to eliminate the special interest deductions that is white we are working so hard on simplifying the code on the family size so we can lower the rates for everybody. Growth and knock that under brush. Quickly mister chairman. When are we can see your mark in the ways and Means Committee so that we can see all of those details. It is all accelerating. It pivots off the budget. Together vote signed sealed and delivered. We will immediately move to committee action. I will lay out what is called the chairman we will listen and begin committee action. The whole process is accelerating in all pivots off the Senate Passing the budget next week and reaching the agreement. All eyes on virginia where the race for governor is heating up. So is that swing state showdown of referendum on the first year in office. What did you have in mind . I dont know. 4. 95 per trade . Uhhh and i was wondering if your brokerage offers some sort of guarantee . Guarantee . Where we can get our fees and commissions back if were not happy. So can you offer me what schwab is offering . Whats with all the questions . Ask your broker if theyre offering 4. 95 online equity trades and a satisfaction guarantee. If you dont like their answer, ask again at schwab. The unpredictability of a flaree may weigh on your mind. Thinking about what to avoid, where to go, and how to work around your uc. Thats how i thought it had to be. But then i talked to my doctor about humira, and learned humira can help get and keep uc under control. When certain medications havent worked well enough. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Raise your expectations and ask your gastroenterologist if humira may be right for you. With humira, control is possible. I showdown in the swing state of virginia is taking on National Prominence former Republican NationalCommittee Chair ed gillespie in the Lieutenant Governor enter the final stretch. The candidates bringing in the heavy hitters this weekend with mice mike pence and joe i didnt both something in the state. One of just two governor races this year. A possible bellwether for the midterm elections. We are back with dan henegar. So james this is the big test here in the post trump era i know him well. You guys know him well. It would seem to be a perfect candidate but he is trailing. The president is not popular in virginia and gillespie i think what he is shown even though he is down in this race he is a very good closer. And came up a little short at the end. But a very good campaigner. For people that know him whats exciting is the possibility that you get a guy who is not just a political expert but has real intellectual horsepower i would be a policy champion and not a seat warmer in that job. As james said the democrats are not supportive of that. And theyre trying to hang him around. I had known ed for 30 years. He is as conservative as they come. The campaign is not quite on his issues. It is sort of a referendum on trump in that that was the state that Hillary Clinton took. Trump has only 35 popularity that it is really skewed 96 percent of democrats have a disapproval of trump. I think that though there are fights. Its always called establishment. The most conservative guy i know. Its kind of a ridiculous title just because he served president bush and came in at a low point. I think his worry is that he doesnt want to galvanize the anti trump forces on the other side. Thats what they are banking on. Is that he been hurt by the person that ran against him in the primary and said he wasnt conservative enough. And has not endorsed him. It is overwhelming in virginia virtually 90 . Its not is not quite true that all democrats are going to vote for him. One of the issues is that down in the southwest part of the state the democrats down there are talking about voting for him. They think they had been abandoned by the Democratic Party which now the democrats are trying to assemble minority voters. The cosmic pollitt cosmo polyps and vote in northern virginia. Those are the independents and they have to worry about what they think about voting for a candidate and an ally to donnell trump. They are trying to tar gillespie with the volatile side of that. He is trying to use some issues that he has used. He has a run and an on ms 13 the gang that he said he was soft on sanctuary cities and try to use that against him. Gillespie is trying to use that to mobilize republicans. I do think the challenge though. And it is for all republican candidates there as washington gets bigger which it always does that part of the vote in the northern part of the state they are including the people that work for the government or had contracts with the government. It is a state that is trending that way. Along with the trump problem. That is a challenge there. The issues are working for him. Does that mean because immigration. Im not saying theyre not working they just dont play to his strength. He does have a tax or proposal. 10 and get some economic revival. But hes been forced into the Gang Violence and stuff where they have sensible positions of it. The state is changing. Hillary took that state with more votes than obama did i think. When we come back. The boy scouts announced plans to admit girls into their program. It is a surrender in the cultural war but is the reality more complicated than that. It turned out, a lot of people fell short, of even the average length of retirement. We have to think about not when we expect to live to, but when we could live to. Lets plan for income that lasts all our years in retirement. Prudential. Bring your challenges. With incredible flavors, like new Nashville Hot shrimp crispy, spicy, and drizzled with sweet amber honey. Plus the delicious classics you love, like garlic shrimp scampi. Try all the shrimp you want, however you want em. But hurry, it ends soon. The boy scouts of america announcing some historical changes at this week. It will allow girls to join the cub scouts beginning in next year. Of next year. And it will start up for older girls. Some critics say the move amounts to a surrender in the culture war we are back with dan henegar. In wall street journal editor. In the former eagle scout i guess you are never a former scout. It is so can allow for some gender separation. What a lot of people dont know some of them are already mixed gender. They announced that starting in 2018 girls could join the cub scouts and they are developing a program that should be ready by 2019 to let girls had their own eagle scout program. In the skin to be a mixture. If you like your current cubs scout pack. They can integrate some of them if they would like too. But still a historic change. Dan was a boy scout. That would be a big cultural change why did they do this. I think there are two reasons. One is a Million People have left scouts since the turn of the century. This 33 percent. The girl scouts are getting hit harder and the boy scouts were looking around and said how can we expand. A spattering of lawsuits and girls who said why can i cant i do what my brother does. They learned after getting beaten up for years i think they saw this as a compromise. You can let the men but working to set things up on our terms. So if they are people within the organization that really do want to stay all boys they can do that but this means that maybe they will take some of the heat off of them from the critics. Like a said will it come to fruition like the other promise about keeping your plan. Well had to find out. Hopeful take. Cultural here i think it is a happy face. There are a couple things on this. I never got past secondclass to take my opinion for what its worth. Dont think we can blame the scouts. One of the reason for the drop they been public enemy number one to a lot two a lot of leftwing groups. Really because of the left objection to anything that celebrates boys and masculinity. Thats what that is. The girl scouts have gone down the social justice were your path and they are worried that may be more traditional families might find them more attractive. It is just the war on boys in masculinity. We complain about guys like Harvey Weinstein and then we need those organizations that have been very good at trying to do that. I think maybe the scouts didnt have any choice but its sad. What bill just said about the girl scouts might be precisely the reason why a lot of girl families want to get them into the boy scouts. You havent made it up to eagle scouts. All of the eagle scouts that i know are solid citizens and what could be bad about women becoming eagle scouts. To bills point ive seen some writing since the move to the left. They are very critical to this. It does tend to reinforce bills point. How long are we to keep that. There are aspects of programs for boys that they love. Were talking about computer programming. At a time when we are trying to get kids off of their xbox into cell phones we had been all camping from learning of the resilience to some things that are there. Is there going to be any resistance from the boy scouts internally. If they can keep that and they can stay strong on that. Internally there well not be a ton of resistance. It doesnt hurt me if a girl gets eagle scout. Most of them i called them semi france. I was shocked at how my friends me friends i have. They did not really care. When i explained that thats how its gonna be. We do to take one more break. When we come back in mrs. Of the week. G new cars. Youre smart. You already knew that. But its also great for finding the perfect used car. Youll see what a fair price is, and you can connect with a truecar certified dealer. Now youre even smarter. This is truecar. Paul time for hit and misses. Well, paul, it saddens me to say that im giving to marvel books. Marvel comics has broken a tie with north grummon. Some of marvel comic books current fans, super hero fans started Media Campaign of the fact that marvel was connecting to a military contractor. These thing that all of the wars were won by the fantastic four and captain america. [laughter] paul, this is a miss. You can forget when you look at modern economy thats still oldfashion dictatorship but reminding us that government get ownership and board seats on biggest growing Tech Companies in china. They dont like to see private officials firms have gotten bigger. The nations highest award. Gary rose. He served as combat medic, in 1970 found himself in this horrible fire fight including the shooting down of his helicopter, saved a lot of lives. So big salute to mr. Rose and many vietnam vets that fought beside him. Paul thanks, bill, thats it for this week, thanks to my panel, im paul gigot, hope to see you right here next week. Julie President Trump taking matters into his own hands after republicans in congress have failed repeatedly to repeal obamacare. Now using his executive powers to dismantle the Health Care Law bit by bit. Welcome to the brandnew hour inside americas headquarters, im julie banderas. Kelly President Trump scrapping obamacare this week rolling back regulation. Lawmakers are keying off on the moves saying it will triple to middleincome americans. Kristin, what is the president saying today about his
