The democratic florida representative, said she was riding in a car with johnsons widow, en route to the arrival of her husbands body, when he called. She was telling the miami station basically, he was saying that he was sorry that she had his sympathy. But he was hoping that even though her husband gave his life for this country, sarcastically, he said, but you know he must have known what he signed up for. Like, how can you say that to a grieving widow . Reporter the congresswoman said the call lasted three to five minutes and the widows only response was thank you, at the end. The white house confirmed the president spoke to all four families of the fallen. But a white house official tells nbc news, the president s conversations with the families of american heroes who have made the ultimate sacrifice are private. Its the latest chapter in the controversy surrounding President Trumps escalating criticism of former president barack obama. I think ive called every family of somebodys thats died.

And the vetting of that information was not completed until wednesday. Kristen welker at the white house. Thank you. To this flurry of activity on capitol hill, with the countdown on to tend of the current session. Lawmakers are facing a massive todo list. Kasie hunt covering that for us. Good morning to you. Reporter savannah, good morning. Theres a rare sign of progress on capitol hill this morning. The president signaling he might be willing to support this bipartisan deal that could help lowincome americans afford their obamacare insurance. And thats one small achievement on a long list of unmet promises. And congress is running out of time. With winter coming, a rare bipartisan thaw on capitol hill. Chairman alexander and i were able to find Common Ground on a number of steps to stabilize the markets. Reporter the makings of a shortterm deal to prop up the obamacare insurance markets, after President Trump ended payments that help lowincome americans pay outofpocket costs. The solution will be a year or two years, and will get us over this intermediate hump. Reporter but its short of the repeal that President Trump promised and that congress spent most of the year trying and failing to pass. Im not going to blame myself, to be honest. Reporter with the new year fast approaching, congress is quickly running out of time to tackle a daunting todo list. The senate has 30 work days left this year. The house, just 28. To pass a major budget deal. Agree on the Health Care Market changes. Potentially fund a border wall and try to protect 800,000 undocumented kids. Im not planning on going home from washington for any holiday until we take care of the dacca and d. R. E. A. M. Er issue. Reporter thats before they get to a rewrite of the tax code, the top priority. If we fail on taxes, were dead. Well lose the house. And the senate is very much at risk. From my point of view, if we dont cut taxes, thats probably the end of the Republican Party as we know it. Reporter after nine months of accomplishing next to nothing, they have one month to achieve everything. We have been told not to make plans for december. We havent. I live closer than most. Im planning on being around. Reporter to kick it all off, the senate has to pass a budget blueprint this week. It wasnt clear they could get that far. Senator john mccain is signaling he could vote in favor of that, to make the path easier. All that really does is start a process they hope is going to end with the first major rewrite of the tax code. Thats a steep hill to climb for this congress. Kasie, you got your work cut out for you. A quick programming note, tomorrow on today, we have an exclusive live interview with the former c eer cia director, brennan. He will join us in our studio tomorrow to talk about a lot more. We want to turn to a new milestone on wall street. The dow topped 22,000 on tuesday for the first time ever. What does that say about the economy . And what does it mean for you . Stephanie ruhle is here with some answers. Good to see you. Its gained about 16 since the start of the year. 3,000 points. As i just mentioned, topped 23,000 briefly on tuesday. Whats driving this . Its a big positive. The economy is humming along. Its about corporate iearnings. President trump has a probusiness agenda. This is not a new rally. This has been a steady climb since the financial crisis. One thing thats a positive for stocks but a negative for us, is wages. Normally when unemployment is so low, companies have to pay out to higher workers. But they dont have to anymore. With globalization or outization, they dont have to pay anymore. It is bad for us that want raises. Its what happens in politics, affects the market. Does that mean the economy likes President Trump . People are going how come the chaos in washington is not playing out in the market . Part of it is because its noise. President trump does say a lot of things that scares us. But he doesnt necessarily do them. He says things about immigration, about trade, geopolitics. But his team walks it back. The market brushes it off, unless it actually gets put into play and it hasnt so far. Thank you very much. Good to have you here.

Gymnast mckayla maroney, after the sexual abuse scandal, now speaking out with allegations of her own sexual ordeal. Saying she was, quote, molested for years by the former doctor of the u. S. Womens National Gymnastics team, larry mass nas. This is happening everywhere. Where there is a position of power, there seems to be potential for abuse. I had a dream to go to the olympics. And the things i had to endure to get there were unnecessary and disgusting. Dr. Nassar told me they was receiving medically necessary treatment that he had been performing on patients for nearly 30 years. It started at one of my First National Team Training camps in texas. And it didnt end until i left the sport. In the harrowing, intensely personal account, she details the alleged abuse, including what she calls the scarier night of her life. Hes given me a sleeping pill for the flight. And the next thing i know, i was alone with him in his hotel room, getting a treatment. I thought i was going to die that night.

The league and the Players Association are calling the meeting itself productive. But it was another sport in the spotlight last night. Oh, say can you see reporter the nbas regular season tipping off tuesday night. But before the first shot, all eyes were on the anthem, to see how players would react. Unlike the nfl, nba rules say players, coaches and trainers must stand and line up in a dignified posture along the sidelines or foul line during the anthem. Lebron james and the Cleveland Cavaliers stood in locked arms. He is also had the word equality on each of his sneakers. The defending champion Golden State Warriors squared off with the houston rockets. The rockets players, also linking arms in unity. It comes as the nfl owners and players are meeting in new york, amid their own anthem controversy. A topic President Trump recently brought back into the spotlight. It is very disrespectful to our country, when they take a knee during the national anthem. Reporter and whiles its a hotbutton issue, no change in the nfls policy. The league not seeking commitments from players to stop kneeling. Instead, vowing to help them focus on political activism. Their commitment to addressing these issues is really admirable. And something i think our owners looked at saying, we want to help support you. It starts with having tough conversations and moving forward. Thats where we started today. Reporter outside the nfl meeting, demonstrators took a knee of their own to show players their support. President trump is tweeting about that meeting this morning saying, quote, the nfl has decided it will not force players to stand for the playing of our national anthem. Total disrespect for our great country. Meanwhile, an attorney for colin kaepernick, the first player to kneel for the anthem, said his client was not invited to that meeting but he is open to joining future talks. This week, kaepernick filed a grievance against the league, saying that all 32 owners have colluded to keep him out of the nfl. The story goes on. It does, craig. By the way, just mentioned the nba. Speaking of that league, there was a frightening moment in the cavs celtics game. Boston forward, gordon hayward, had a horrific injury just moments into his debut. This happened during an alleyoop attempt. Ard collided james. Dislocating his ankle and breaking his leg. It left players on both teams stunned. His teammates huddled together, as medical personnel rushed to his side. Lebron james checked on hayward afterwards before he was wheeled away on a stretcher. The cleveland crowd giving a standing ovation. The injury is a big blow to the celtics. They signed hayward to a fouryear deal justice u. S. This season. Forget the contract, for get everything.

I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . So i made a point to talk to my doctor. He told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots. Eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Eliquis had both. And that turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you.

It allows parents and teachers to talk to their children and discuss it themselves and to see how it was not just an attack on a person, but an attack on education. The attack was five years ago . Yes. Do you think about it every day . No. That attack happened five years ago. I never think that it has happened to me because, firstly, i dont remember the incident. Thats good in a way. And secondly, i just do not want to think back because im moving forward. What are you hoping that little kids who read this, what do you hope they will learn or take away . There is magic. And they have to find the magic. The magic is in their voice, in their words, their writings. They should dream beyond limits and believe there is magic in them.

Its lovely and beautifully done. Its fun to see that side of her. You know . Yeah. Never seen that side of her. The book is called malalas magic pencil. Coming up next, josh brolin is here. Why hes proud to be called a hot shot in his new movie. But fit, this is today on rs [ cheers and applause ] 8 47. Were back with oscar nominee josh brolin. His new movie only the brave is the tragic true story of an elite group of firefighters known as the Granite Mountain hotshots brolin is known as eric marsh, who gives his trainnies some advice. Youre only going to be able to see thats fuel. Think about that. Meditate on it. And think about if this job is for you. Josh, good morning. Good to see you. Great to see you. Obviously, this is poignant and timely. Were covering the wildfires out in california, over 40 people have died, including a firefighter. 5,5 structures have burned down. You shot this a long time ago. But when you see that story that were covering, how does it relate to this movie . I mean, it relates in every way. And the thing is, this movie does you know, you do a movie, hollywood and all that. And its profit and that and business. And once in a while, you do a movie that resonates deeply. And with whats going on in california right now, you start to kind of build awareness. And you get humble in watching a movie like this. You realize that these people are out there dealing with unpredictable, extremely dangerous situations, putting themselves in major pearl, to ensure the safety of the communities. I read about this. And at first, this confused me. And it made perfect sense to me. You were a volunteer fireman in arizona in your youth. In my 20s. At first, that made you leery about doing this job. I thought, why . Doing this movie. You want to make sure you get this right. You have a sensitivity you wouldnt have necessarily had before. I spent 30 years with this community. One of my best friends, instant commander, one of my chiefs back then. When i was deciding to do this movie, you meet a director. Are you going to be sensitive . Are you connected to your heart to do Something Like this . And i went to this guy and i said, do you think im the right guy . Should i do this . And he said, youre the only guy to do this. Almost like the apoint eed one. You glanced over something about the challenges these people face at home. And theyre just like the rest of us. Soup, we call your character. He loves his job. But the family doesnt love the risk he takes as part of his job that much. Thats what i love. This movie deals equally firefighting and in the extreme situations. But also the extreme situation about what a son deals with, the wife deals with. The entire family. And these families, we met, 19 of the guys have extended family and this stuff. Its an emotional subject. With this movie, you celebrate this firefighting. And that will resonate with First Responders everywhere. And members of our military, as well. We were chatting a little bit. And talking about age. You brought it up. I did bring it up. By the way, you just turned 60. Not yet. Dont rush me. Nor have i turned 50. I saw that in the note. I went and i googled you. I do from time to time. You know the first thing that came up was an image of you. And so, well talk about the 50 in a second. But you are jacked. I was jacked. You are jacked. I appreciate that. I saw this picture. I thought, my god, this guys working out. Thats half of a pickup line. Its not. I promise you. Just as buddies. Just as friends. I like how you qualify it. I was very jacked. I was working out 2 1 2 hours a day. Unlike you, where i heard your schedule revolves around your gym time. I like the gym. I like the gym. Were at a point right now, where when you go to the gym, it feels better. When you dont go to the gym, you start to feel sore, as opposed to just being healthy. I think ive chosen movies that allow me to, you know, stay jacked. When you look in the mirror, does that make i look in the mirror, i just go, wow. Im jacked. I should do a firefighting film. When you see what great shape youre in, does it make 50 just a number . I think it tries to. It does its best. Im beautifully in denial right now and thats okay with me. You think on the morning you turn 50 in february, you might wake up and say, uhoh . How did you feel about 50 . I was in a ball on the floor. My dad called me when i was 30. Back in the day in the 60s, when you turned 30, it was a major thing. And my dad called me six times when i turned 30. How are you doing, man . I was fine until you called me six times. You look great. The movie is great. Good to see you. Josh, a pleasure. Josh, a pleasure. Only the brave hits when youre a doubledipping pensionpadder josh, a pleasure. Only the brave hits like steve sweeney, its important to maintain a certain. Lifestyle. Thats why sweeney spent over a hundred grand of his Campaign Funds on highpriced meals and other gifts. Were talking fine cigars, fancy watches, pricey restaurants, and expensive wines all to charm the type of folks who helped him raise your taxes 145 times. Too many in south jersey are struggling. But steve sweeneys looking out for himself, not for us. Back with my man crush, josh brolin. Feel that by acceicep. Thats an actor playing a firefighter. Like a fire hose right there. How about the ladies are the only ones acting normal with josh brolin. I got the men demographic. You mean, what was it like when you turned 50 . She looked at me and said, thats a long time ago. She is a true arizona tempe. All right. We better do birthdays. In 50 years, youll be on a smuckers jar. Happy 106th birthday to margie brown. Anytime. Retired nurse from charlottesville, virginia.
