reduction wouldn t kick in until he serves two years and nine months. so the minimum he could serve. julie: two years nine months? correct. julie: let s talk about the fact that three counts of aggravated indecent assault that these three charges were combined into one charge. you are talking 10 years per charge. many would argue why combine them into three? you have one woman accuser who says this literally destroyed her life. she is the only one who is being taken into account. her story into the particular case. however, the judge allowed the jurors to consider the 60 other women who, in fact, accused bill cosby of the same. so it s very confusing when you have one accuser, one court case but there were 60 on or about accusers who have nothing to do with this particular case that the jurors had to consider. as reprehensible as bill cosby s behavior has been and convicted in this case his rights were severely violated by permitting the events that were not charged in the indi
he could sign it at mar-a-largo or have a signing ceremony somewhere else. when he returns to washington d.c. and the congress comes back in early january, have another big event like this as a post signing ceremony. the one possible hitch in all of this has to do with a bill to continue funding the government. i m told the white house is confident they ll get a continuing resolution and continue to fund the government through january the 19th and they re also confident they ll get what are called pay-go waivers, which means entitledments would not be cut to pay for the tax cuts. if they don t get that, that would likely then delay the signing of this tax reform bill to the new year, because there s a complicated provision that the president signs it this year and don t get a waiver, the cuts to entitlements take place next year. if he waits until 2018 to sign it, they wouldn t kick in until 2019. the white house confident they ll get the waivers. you have to say the. had a big, big wi
with gabe gutierrez. the hardest working guy in tv right now. what are you hearing about a roy moore potential session now that a recount is no longer in the realm of possibility? reporter: good morning, hallie. when will roy moore concede? he surprised folks last night by saying this was not over, that he still planned to, you know, possibly contest the results of this election. but when he came out and said that, the result was much closer. it was a .70% difference. now a .50% difference. so election officials here say an automatic recount wouldn t kick in unless it was one-half of a percentagen poi e point. the doug jones camp is elated. let s listen to what he had to say last night. folks, i ve got to tell you, i think that i have been waiting all my life and now i just don t know what the hell to say.
this is not what mitch mcconnell wanted. right. so that s also different from the house bill when people kind of the activists gave up and they didn t have to face town halls anymore. suddenly it seemed safe to vote for it. evan, it s friday night. i don t want to put you on the spot to be too metaphysical. but when the republican new proposal is repeal now, but it wouldn t kick in now, is that now really? no. it creates uncertainty in the market, and you re going to see premiums skyrocket and insurance companies trying to take advantage of that. and there will be such a fog of war for lack of a better term that nobody will be helped by that. republicans in the senate at least did not want to do health care reform at this point in time. they wanted to do tax reform first because when you fight or when democrats were to fight tax reform, it s a standard line that doesn t really register as much as oh, giveaways of taxpayer dollars to your corporate overlords, whereas when yo
the way he talks about the bill makes it hard to believe that he would backtrack on it. but i think and they also, finally, they did not want this to happen, this meaning these guys and women have to go back into their districts and face angry voters again. this is not what mitch mcconnell wanted. right. so that s also different from the house bill when people kind of the activists gave up and they didn t have to face town halls anymore. suddenly it seemed safe to vote for it. evan, it s friday night. i don t want to put you on the spot to be too metaphysical. but when the republican new proposal is repeal now, but it wouldn t kick in now, is that now really? no. it creates uncertainty in the market, and you re going to see premiums skyrocket and insurance companies trying to take advantage of that. and there will be such a fog of war for lack of a better term that nobody will be helped by that. republicans in the senate at least did not want to do health care reform at thi
