joe biden and kevin mccarthy have still not reached a deal that would break the stalemate over the debt limit. tonight, they did meet one-on-one in the oval office hours after the treasury secretary janet yellen issued a another stark warning. yellen says it is quote, highly likely the treasury will no longer be able to satisfy all of the governments obligations if there is no resolution by june 1st. meaning, we cannot pay our bills, even though they was some agreement, kevin mccarthy says the sides are going to keep talking. i think the productive part was who was in the room, narrowing what we re talking about, we re not talking over each other we re not saying, oh let s bring something new into the discussion, let s not oval raising taxes that s been off for a long time. we literally talked about where we are having disagreements and ideas, so to me that is productive, not progress but productive. so we re asking the staff to get back to run through those ideas to see if
doesn t look like anybody has any traction against him, i don t know if tim scott is someone who has traction against, him he s lower in the polls, single digits. but the calculus may be that maybe one, two, the more indictments may be coming against former president, at some point the republican base gets tired of hitting is in the trump. and trump is no longer the viable candidate, and then if it s not, trump was out there? well this tim scott guy looks good, some say. and i think he and a lot of candidates are looking at the, how can he be there, pull the party out of the wreckage if they see donald trump self-destruct? ali vitali, i want to ask you about an elephant that is in the room or should be in the. you wrote an entire book about women, power and politics. okay. if an unmarried women with no children was running for president, the media would be focusing on this 20 47. why didn t anybody want to marry her? why doesn t she have children? does she not like children?
person i do. for more than how tim scott handles it on the road, how about we, the media, handled it on the road? and how we treat females versus. males ali vitali, peter baker, mark mckinnon, great to see all of you. thanks for starting us off. when we come back, another female we re going to talk about, e. jean carroll seeking new damages from donald trump for comments he made in that town hall. well, the former presidents other legal troubles seem to be noting. neal katyal is here on all of it, and later a syncytial story about migrants displacing homeless veterans in a new york hotel took days of outrage. here s the problem, the whole story was a big fat lie. the 11th hour, just getting underway on a serious monday night. night.
