Averages retrace as Senate Republicans started whipping votes to pass tax reform. We have an allstar guest lineup to break it all down. North dakota senator john hoeven. Legal eagle curt and lieutenantgeneral Thomas Mcinerney here tonight. Im liz macdonald. This is risk and reward. Michael flynn will plead guilty to make false statements to the fbi. Do you think that has anything to do with the downside move in stocks . If general flynn had been charged an convicted for all the crimes the government has evidence against him, he would face 60 years, six, zero years in jail. As a result of the guilty plea that has been reduced to somewhere between six and 12 months. Did he make a deal . I think there is no there there. We turned that around. Dow industrials up one point. Corker and flake are still on the fence. James lankford is now a yes vote. This is selloff. Jeff flake who was holdout on the tax bill, we are getting word he will not be. He will be a yea vote. That would seem to indica
Winners and losers. She is a democrat. Caller yes. The biggest winner is probably President Trump. The biggest loser is president obama. For eight years, i waited for change and got nothing. He put everyone else at ahead. All these ideologies, all got ahead of his program. I am an African American and i cannot even go to work and say the name, trump. The biggest winner is President Trump. The biggest loser is a obama. He forgot people like me who get up and go to work every day. He is the biggest loser. Host why did you feel like you couldnt say President Trumps name at work . Caller when you go in and sit down, even in the lunch room or anywhere, as soon as you say, i am willing to hear what he has to say. They call you a bigot, a loser. They have every name. They couldnt say why but they have every name and category they could call you because you want to hear the ideas of someone who was right and had an Economic Program going. Like he said, what have you got to lose . Absolutely. W
Of the two senators but senator bush last week . I think they will look at a president who has built an economy thats stronger than it has been decades and brought unemployment to 16 year low created over 1. 7 million jobs. I think those are the things that people care about not the petty comments from senator corcoran senator flake and i think they are a lot more concerns about the policy initiatives that this president is driving including historic tax cuts. We have to start focusing on other things. Those are the things are present will be remembered by and i think those are certainly good facts and once we are happy to stand on. Deirdre an exclusive fight broke out before lunch with republicans and the president had President Trump and senator bob corker going at it and it all began when the president was trying to defend the 401 k s against republican tax hikes and now senator jeff flake announcing he will join bob corker saying he too will resign at the end of his term. Both not

Off theincoherent, and cuff, but i had to say something. This is just incredible. [applause] i would like to open more properly by thank you mr. And mrs. Stone for their incredible remarks. Mr. Stone is the reason i am here now. I did not think i could make it at first, and he persuaded me to leave in the middle of finals week to be with you here today. [laughter] happen. It mr. Stone, im glad to say, you were right. When i heard i was going to have to come up here and actually say something, im not going to lie, i had no frame of reference to approach this. On some level, i still dont. To be here, among people who have done far more for the cause then i have is terribly humbling. Why me . When arthur sat me down and said i had been given this award, i did not think i have done anything to do it. Im used to speaking my mind, and they w
The story of real people and their real challenges. I describe whats gone wrong in their life, all we are doing about it now and what we can do better. Youll notice in the book there are many ideas that are bipartisan. They involve my collaboration with people of another party. Colleagues like chris coons of connecticut and cory booker in new jersey. Many of our policy proposals are part of it at all. Particularly when it comes to Higher Education. Youll read about how im working with mark warner to make Higher Education more affordable how im working with cory booker to provide more access to wifi and internet especially in disadvantaged neighborhoods. These are important initiatives as well. They are not easy to put on a bumper sticker. They dont win a lot of elections but they are critical to the future of our country. So we still have time and space and we should debate the issues we disagree on but i hope we can come together and cooperate on the essential issues of our time becau
