We also come from a state where Insurance Companies pulled out of 14, to 17 counties. Most of the people cant afford health insurance. They wont have any option at all in the next enrollment period. Neil im reminded what fred barnes had to say in todays wall street journal. Will be a special guest of mine on fox news later today. But he said republicans are not acting like team players. Referring to senator paul, kevin, he owes boss senate bill because it leaves too much obamacare in place but the alternative to leave it all in place. What do you make of that . That is certainly true. A vote to not move forward is vote for obamacare. It is a vote for the status quo. We know where that is going. It will have to be ailed out one way or the other. It is in a death spiral. We all know what the democrats answer is to that. Dump a ton of money. Reform nothing. Kick the can down the road wait for it to fail at a later date. This is the time to act. They have gone on this for eight years. They
Joining us, ylan mui in washington, covering this breaking development ylan obviously, this is a big shake up at the white house. Here are the tweets that donald trump put out. He said that john f. Kelly will now be white house chief of staff. He called him a Great American and a great leader he also said he has done a spectacular job at Homeland Security and he has been a true star of my administration. Now, one interesting question in all of this will be how kelly will be able to handle what is clearly a politically potentially toxic environment for him going forward. When he worked for leon panetta, who was secretary of defense, one of the questions that he had was that he didnt want to go into an environment where there would be political infighting and political sniping. Leon panetta even telling cnn at one point that that was the last place that he would want to be but this is now something that he will have to grapple with going forward. President trump also just tweeted, now i

In washington where it is day two of french president emanuel macron are meeting at the white house. Well see if that special relationship between macron and the president can change the president s mind on a host of issues, primarily the Iran Nuclear Deal. Even as the president hosted his french counterpart, mr. Trump was pressed on issues here at home. And at this afternoons joint Press Conference, it was his embattled pick to be the next secretary of Veterans Affairs. I havent heard of the particular allegations, but i will tell you, hes one of the finest people that i have met. Admiral jackson, dr. Jackson, hes a wonderful man. I said to him, what are you needed for . And as far as experience is concerned, the Veterans Administration which is approximately 13 million people, is so big, you koucould run the biggest Hospital System in the world that is small
That was President Trump taking a victory lap on the news that the u. S. Economy grew at a robust rate at 4. 1 percent in the Second Quarter. The fastest pace in almost 4 years. Here with a look at whats behind that acceleration is chair of the White House Council of economic advisory. Nice to see you. 4. 1 percent. Economists predicted 4. 4, as you look at the details of the report. What do you like in it . It goes back to a piece i wrote a while back that Corporate Tax cuts would cause a Capital Spending boom. If you look at the average of the first half of the year, we got a Capital Spending boom in the average growth is 3. 1 percent. Its not often that economists can nail it that tightly and it showed its working exactly as we thought. Paul Capital Spending in the First Quarter was more robust than in the Second Quarter. Do you have an explanation for that . One of the things that happened is for Equipment Spending you were allowed to expense it retroactive to october. In the Fourt
