Supposedly this individual had perfected a method in which he could sneak explosives on board an aircraft by soaking clothes in a liquid explosive. Reporter u. S.

Our report tonight from our senior White House Correspondent chris jansing. Reporter newly empowered republicans. Were going to break through the gridlock, put bills on the floor of the senate. Reporter to the newly chasen democrats. This blame game, people are tired of it. Reporter today was full of pledges to make washington work, but on core issues both sides dug in. Republicans are angry the president pledged to bypass congress to do immigration reform. I literally am pleading with the president of the United States not to act. When you play with matches, you take the risk of burning yourself. Reporter and Republican Leaders doubled down on getting rid of the president s signature accomplishment making a commitment to repeal obamacare. All ten newly elected republican senators ran on that. And once she sets her sights on obamacare, jonis going to unload. Obamacares a disaster, but the president wont admit it. Is the honeymoon over before it starts . No, i mean, look, i think we have republicans have deeply held beliefs. We have deeply held beliefs. The president said yesterday to American People voters and nonvoters alike that he hears them.

Reporter the economy will be a focus when the two sides come facetoface for the First Time SinceElection Night tomorrow over lunch at the white house. The president and 14 invited congressional leaders. It could set the tone for the future. The president should have a piece of humble pie before he starts a meeting. And i hope the republicans will not pound their chest. Reporter both sides have skin in the game. The president doesnt want to squander his last two years in office. And republicans who want to prove that after years of gridlock congress can get something done.

We have a special look here tonight at Jerry Seinfeld, the man whose selftitled tv show ruled these air waves for many years. But this is also about the business of Jerry Seinfeld, both his core business and his newest venture, his web series starting its new season even though theres no real season on the web. He is a man who takes comedy and its manufacturing process very seriously. On a recent wednesday night at the end of the night, the crowd at the Gotham Comedy Club in new york had no idea what was about to happen. The leading observational standup comic of his time had just parked his car and was heading into the club. Make some noise. Get excited for Jerry Seinfeld, everybody. Reporter its the only way to try out new material on a live audience. Then the good stuff goes on the road with him, as we did to san jose. Here hes the headliner, and he does a couple of these every week. And here we get to see him work. In his dressing room with sinatra on the stereo, and then standing up to practice his standup before he goes out. Not one for big introductions, he prefers running in from the wings. And now the most restless man in comedy has started down yet another path. What seinfeld did for the sitcom, the junior mint and puffy shirt, hes now doing for web videos. Its a series that combines his three loves, comedians, in cars, getting coffee. Your life has been one unbroken boulevard of green lights, hasnt it . Reporter its basically jerry interviewing his friends and the people he admires. Fantastically funny people in great cars that he matches to the guest and rents for the day. We were there the day he interviewed jimmy fallon for whom he had chosen a 56 corvette. It was tricked out with cameras. Then once they were on the road jerry spotted the same model car, which triggered an outburst in that seinfeld voice. Oh my god what are the odds of that . I love this. Reporter the show is about the conversation and the adventure of getting coffee while being funny because jerry is fascinated by people who are funny. I wanted to see if i could capture it and show people, look at this group of people. Arent they unusual . And isnt it unusual how all these different people who do this thing are kind of the same . Were the only kind of people i feel completely relaxed around. Reporter and back to the comedy club, jerry actually does that, shows up to do standup at clubs all over new york all the time. What are you still doing in louies comedy club at midnight on a wednesday. . People outside the comedy business will never understand that about you. Is that correct . Its correct. And i wish i had a good answer for you, but i know that thats the healthiest thing i can do. Reporter is that your batting cage . Yeah. And this gets to a larger life perspective. If youre more interested in what you have achieved or what your financial position enables you to do, then that thing that got those things, youre screwed. In my opinion youre screwed. Reporter and thats the thing about Jerry Seinfeld, at age 60 hes still figuring out who he is. For example, in recent years as hes learned more about autism spectrum disorders, he sees it himself. I think on a very drawn out scale i think im on the spectrum. Reporter why . What are the markers if i were sitting here analyzing you . Never paying attention to the right things. Basic social engagement is really a struggle. Im very literal. When people talk to me and they use expression, sometimes i dont know what theyre saying. But i dont see it as dysfunctional. I think of it as an alternate mindset. Were doing it right were doing it right this is going to be great. Reporter for now, Jerry Seinfeld is a web producer. And in his own way tries to produce everything. Are you going to try and put music to this like i do . Reporter you know, really thats my business. Now youre meddling. Imagine him trying to tell us how to make television. Our thanks to Jerry Seinfeld. And that is our broadcast on a thursday night. Thank you for being here with us. Im brian williams. We of course hope to see you right back here tomorrow evening. Good night. noni well, thank you. I love you. I love you. You guys can put one on eh side of the bed. Exactly, we should.
