that s next. plus, the government shutdown hits a record 30th day, and the 800,000 workers affected are still not getting paid. why a former department of homeland security secretary says the damage could be felt years from now. you re live in the cnn newsroom. i just got my cashback match,
announce something this week. at the white house and from capitol hill, the president targeting nancy pelosi today in his morning tweets. reporter: that s right. working fingers to the bone on the twitter machine this morning. really going after nancy pelosi. of course, a longtime republican foil and president trump obviously, his maim adversary as the shutdown is in record territory stretching into its 30th day. a sampling now of the three consecutive tweets that the president directed at nancy pelosi. he calls nancy pelosi and the dems, they don t see crime and drugs at the border. only 20-20. and nancy pelosi behaved irrationally she s now become a radical democrat. finally, nancy, he says, i m still thinking about the state of the union and concludes, i ll get back to you soon. remember, of course, nancy pelosi almost disinvited him. a little unclear. up to the speaker to invite the
question a little while ago. i would give the same answer. there s a big difference between permanent protection for the dreamers, which is a program, by the way, doing great good, no problems with it at all until donald trump decided to bust it, didn t like it, threw it to congress and there s a big difference between permanent protection and a path to citizenship, which is part of that deal and three years of protection. i want to add one other thing. uh-huh. let s be real here. what s wrong is donald trump doesn t want the shutdown to end. he likes this shutdown. it keeps him in the center. it shows that he s got the power. he alone can keep these 800,000 employees out. i don t think he s serious at all about ending the shutdown, and it s in its 30th day. so you have the coast guard, the secret service, the tsa, national park service, forest service, go down the list who are being held hostage and forced to pay the price for his stubbornness. i don t know, amy. do you think th

two to three districts we could lose in new york. now my district which has a lot of undocumented. is the number one in the state to answer the census form. we did a tremendous job. we had boots on the ground. we want to get resources to go to the classroom to count for housing and seniors, et cetera. to make this clear, it is not politics or gain, so you can accurately represent the 700,000 people. last question here, what do you say about where this is going. we are in the 30th day of the shutdown. there becomes a normalcy to in this which is damaging. we don t have the numbers. calling from new york city, they don t have the numbers in the
