Corporate tax rate, making it competitive. If we were really smart, we would do another big stimulus. You are saying, what . What did he just say . Remember that big stimulus that we were supposed to have at the beginning of the Obama Administration . Whatever happened to that . I know where we could get a big stimulus. There is 2 trillion of offshore money because they will not bring it back because it will be taxed at 35 . What if we give them a tax holiday and let them bring it back, repatriate that money . It wont cost us a dime. [applause] dr. Carson that is the kind of thing we have to start thinking about. If you go to the Financial Advisor and you are in trouble they will tell you there are a few they will ask you for questions. What do you own . What do you know . Owe . Well, we only a lot owe a lot.

From the front page of the post joining us to give us a sense of what could happen, the leadership editor of roll call. Thank you for joining us this morning. Lets start with the house. S speakere boehner has regarding the short term funding bill. Guest republicans are scheduled to meet at noon today. I think that is going to be a pretty important meeting. They have to decide as a behind ae, do they get specific alternative to send back to the senate . They have some choices here. They could just take up the senate bill, put it on the house floor, and it would probably pass with mostly democratic support. A lot of republicans would not v
Office because americans will be watching to see if you follow through on that promise. I also would like to follow up on senator al frankens question, i think there was something there that did not quite get answered.

I know that because it didnt get covered. The press didnt cover this because it didnt happen. What did Chris Matthews say next . Lets talk about the major strategic of this administration overseas and here as well. To eradicate radical islam terrorism. How does that fit with the executive order . A big missed opportunity not following up on that alleged, made up Bowling Green massacre. Instead moving on. That shows the challe
And the question now is whether john bolton will be a trial witness. He said he will answer questions if subpoenaed. But one suggests it doesnt have to be so complicated. Ive known john bolton for a long time. Hes a friend of mine. No reason john bolton cant Say Something publicly right now. Ive never known him not to Say Something right now. Back to that story a bit later, but we begin this hour on high alert in the fallout after an american killing of an iranian high commander. American forces across the middle east were placed on high alert for possible drone attacks. The u. S. Said they killed soleimani because he had an imminent threat on americans, but the white house refused to provide any specifics. Today just a tiny nugget from the Security Officer Robert Obrien, finally revealing some kind of timeline. The intel we had, the information we had which we believe was very strong, showed that soleimani and those he was plotting with were looking to kill american diplomats and sold
