this is an important deadline and we will see if they come across because this is stonewalling this group, this committee. >> we'll see how far congress is going to go. is congress willing to put somebody in jail if they been subpoenaed or don't agree to testify. it can be a test of executive balance of power here, maria between congress and the executive. we'll see. trained to the journal today saying what if this is true. what if the dossier was used as the justification to wiretap the trump campaign. >> did the fbi dallas followed fresh and intelligent and stuff that wasn't true about the president did they take it to a judge and a judge in batch or who did that? maria: coming up during the conversation the national committee chairman newt gingrich is with us this morning. u.s. ambassador to the land and american enterprise senior fellow john bolton joining to ceo plus bill sandberg. a lot to talk about this morning. do stay with us. this top story, one of silicon valley's biggest investor make and a big bitcoin bad. paypal cofounder peter teal has amassed hundreds of millions of dollars in bitcoin. sources tell the journal has firmed by around 15 to $20 million in digital currency which it now says is worth hundreds of millions after his meteoric rise this year. here's the teal told me about the potential when i sat down with him back in october and we ought. >> one skeptical of most of them i do think people are a little bit may be underestimating sub three specifically because it is like the reserved form of money. it is like old and this shows the stored value. and if it ends up being a cyberequivalent of gold, it has a great potential. it is a very different kind of thing. people in silicon valley normally focus on companies, not algorithms or protocols, so this may be one exception. underestimated. maria: bitcoin prices spike. kevin kelly, what do you think about it it's certainly paid off for thiel so far. >> i absolutely love this. this is the validation of the asset class. you are starting to see the world's largest investors get into it after the largest futures exchange for the chicago mercantile exchange, so you have the adaptation of that, but this goes back to basically a currency that can be used should you need to get around price controls are surging inflation in prices. we've seen latin american investors and citizens using this to get away from venezuela. they are getting hyperinflation and this is a good way. better than gold because you're going to lug around expensive gold wire? you can't do that. dagen: as an instrument of pure speculation. there are literally hundreds of other crypto currencies and for now the mania and fixation is on this one. i would argue it's not like old. at least gold has a use. you can use it to make jewelry. there is no underlying use or value of this asset if you want to call it that. either way, we should remind people, peter thiel is one really rich dude and he can afford to lose $20 million taking a flyer on something like bitcoin. your average person cannot afford that. >> it is not a flyer. >> listen, we are so privileged to have a banking system we can trust and transacted we get to do that. if i am somebody in a developing nation but there is no bank or a government imposing its will and dictatorshipcome i can use and become become my own bank. tons of people have their cell phones. dagen: you can use the other crypt to currencies. that's my point. that is why this is dangerous because this is where the speculation is. my point is anybody who needs a way to transact business outside the traditional banking system and transactional not or can't choose another crypto currency at some point. it is not people but america that need to do deals with other people. its bartenders coast-to-coast speculating on this could get their shirts handed to them in their pants and shoes and socks. payback is not a replacement for the u.s. dollar. what is the u.s. dollar backed by? the u.s. government no longer the gold standard. >> people wanted to get their money back from the banks. >> of course -- dagen: the dollar didn't collapse in 2008. iraq denies a currency units now. it's a vehicle for speculators. >> look, look, think it's great that they are experimenting for leading this great experiment happening, maybe bitcoin has a certain purpose in the marketplace. media facilitate online transactions. maybe it is just a tool for criminals. i don't know how it going to end up. this is a real-life experiment going on. it's great. not going to replace the dollar. it's not gold or if let's let the market figure out how to use it. >> he could take me a couple days in italian fees had acted at the party you want to send you guys send bitcoin right now. dagen: not arguing there's a valid use for crypto current fee. that is not how it is being used today. his speed is for people to speculate. when you convince people that only bitcoin is the future. why not lay claim, ripple, one of the other myriad ur encouraging people to lose everything they own. transit will come up with southwest and american airlines giving thousand dollar bonuses to employees, basically basically celebrating the new tax plan signed into law by president trump. this is just getting better and better. at&t, wells fargo all announcing bonuses after the bill passed. do you think this continues? do you think some of this odious payout in 2017 was too obviously get it on the 17 tax as opposed to 18 because you listed actions. >> you may see money return to people another raised her head from her salary. you may see them get bigger bonuses. that's what happens when you have a growing economy. personally i would like to have a free sandwich on economy. maybe next time i fly. i'm happy for the employees, but come on. dagen: happy employees make for better flying experience. we know that because we fought american. trade was great to see them responding to the tax plan and paid out to the employees. >> good corporate servers are going to take care of this care of the stewards inquiry employees. not only on the public side, but even by persons who founded go daddy. he is a private enterprise now running his own money. you see a trickle of not only throughout the public corporations, but also private enterprise as well. maria: at the top stories as well, the global payment service money grab by alibaba financial is off after the u.s. government bought a quarter billion dollars you're coming a year to the day that alibaba founder jack ma elected donald trump in new york pledged to create 1 million american jobs. does this have implications for the chinese purchase of american companies. what is behind this? is this a national security issue? >> these transactions go through sophisticated process and the heads of agencies come together and talk about transactions and go through them. jack ma was never entirely clear. they knew that. he's very close to the chinese government. it's a section that is an entrepreneur like a warren buffet or somebody the united states. he's fundamentally different. >> i can tell you this is actually a shot across the bow to the chinese companies and one of the reasons the transparency are talking about in donald trump blocked an acquisition in september. it's supposed to be bought out by a chinese company. you seem even u.s. companies sued against acquires. the transparency isn't there. it's a national security issue. two house of representatives steny acquisition could allow for malicious act is to obtain data on u.s. military personnel who use the service of this goes back to what happened with aqua fact we are all in deep trouble. being that this is not president trump willy-nilly putting the hammer down on this deal. the center of the committee on foreign investment in the u.s. that did not pass muster. he went through the regular channels for radio of this scope and size and origin. >> this highlights back so competitive they are competing the ipo later and again bitcoin. maria: intern says the chinese acquired this company. we'll take a break. new terrorism concerns. a man posted pictures of himself outside several new york city landmarks posing with isis logos. they are act did not matter. the new nasdaq record as new nasdaq records posing about 7000 for the first time ever. 7000 with the new look at how market optimism might continue into 28 team. back right here. ♪ alerts -- wouldn't you like one from the market when it might be time to buy or sell?

>> exit for a while. when they get expensive, and they can get more expensive than we feel like that is where we are at this point in time. i have been through as many as spending in the business right now, so they all look similar than the same way it looks now. >> expensive based on what? 17 times earnings? >> it is forward seven teen to 18 times i'm a bit if you look at prices sales, which is something you can't fool with, it's a solid number, the same way in 2000. market cap to gdp backing up to where it was in 2000. people were obviously comes extremely complacent for about 15 to 810 months. that gives you a perfect storm. it may not happen this month, but we are running 20% liquid and that is because we can't find anything to buy right now. >> one of the interesting things that happened is the nasdaq topped 17,000. one of the things i see as i'm willing to pay, you know, up for a name like microsoft i believe you all and 25 times going forward because it's growing at 20%. solid cash flows reoccurring revenues. they are doing well on the cloud. what are you looking specifically putting new capital word. he said that 20% liquid. will you deploy that capital? >> when you get late cycle, will we start to do is get more conservative. we will buy buy higher-quality bombs, treasuries, also by companies like microsoft and think they can increase dividend. if i have a dividend payer like microsoft and they can increase the dividend 10% then i know i'm going to get a component working for me the next five years even if i don't get a big capital move in the market in general and those are the kinds of companies we are looking for right now. >> interesting. i also noticed you are pretty pro-goals. you are thinking having a couple liquid positions in gold is a good way to hedge yourself potentially from inflation. >> well, one of the things you look for from the inflation standpoint, we don't happen to look at if you look at it from the cash flow multiples in 2011 on the minors, there were about three or four times higher rate now. they have pillows in the latter part of 15, release 16 and if you look at the minors lyon, which are the new bond and legal, we think they have a lot of upside over the next two to three years. if nothing else in the price of gold moving higher committees companies are working on low capital spending budgets so we think they will do well from here. maria: what are the risks? we are going on the assumption the economy continues doing well. we see the tax plan in the earnings going very strongly. 13% to 15% growth in earnings for the s&p 500 in 2018. it is hard to see the box on the consumer confidence up to 122.1 down from 128.6 back in november. where is your worry in terms of what changes the momentum here come the changes the direction of this market? where is the big risk? >> most bear markets start not necessarily with some thing you see the economy going but they start falling on their way. so many buyers since so many people would date you get to a point to where there's nothing underneath it all the sudden people will look at six to nine months and start taking money off the table. either have that or an outside event in 1887 or 2001 where you have something you did not expect incomes in the marketplace. this one will come from complacency and it sneaks up on people that say we are not going to get what you expected from the tax cut. you can't make a big move in the economy and 80 bucks a month for a family making $60,000. dagen: the housing bubble in 2007 in 2006 didn't sneak up on people. people saw it coming. it was almost mania in terms of people buying up houses. we talked about it for two years that these companies could sustain it. we didn't know what is going to end the window is knew it wasn't going to end well. >> we talk about it like we are talking about bitcoin right now. dagen: we have seen people given to mania and lose a lot of money. >> beverages is such an interesting question. what is this updraft different from the rest because the entire market has been lifted all of these asset classes by the fed for so many years. if that's what is different? >> i think what we're looking at the most and you can look at all these other things. the federal reserve is a bit off course and you've got brand-new people and you've also got three or four empty spots per year in a situation where the spread of the curve is only 55 basis points right now. one of the best indicators that are has been a yield curve for recession and we are getting closer and closer to that. you are looking at that i think you can put that on top and see it may not happen tomorrow, but it will eventually have an impact the last 10 times that of all this time as well. maria: is there anywhere to hide? should we see something like that, a significant a lot? >> it was controversial but we have a position in the 20 and 30 year treasury. one of the things we decided the 27th team was the long rates would not go up. the short rate slowed and oddly enough, everybody had in two to six year bonds which is where they've lost money this year and we've been in the 16 to 30 year paper and we've made money on the send the thing that will be the case because when you have a recession until the curve enough, that will be a good escape pop for you. maria: will be watching that. thank you so much. >> thank you, maria. maria: today we are looking at another rally. coming up, set to intensify where they found cycling patterns. it is promising to bring snow and ice even in the south where officials say they are so frozen they want to have a word with also. we'll explain. weight watchers new star, pick collaborations with beyoncé and others teams up with weight watchers. more after this. ♪ markets on the move expecting a higher opening for broader averages are down bastrop 40 points, nasdaq up 13. average company want to watch printmaker brands like captain morgan and spare not putting snap shot had after u.k. advertising watchdog say they did not take the necessary steps to make sure captain morgan at its launch on the social media site was not seen by underage users. down two thirds of a percent this morning on the market. shares of apple today acquired canadian-based startup buddy bills. puppy now boasts a developing team. shares of apple update quarter of a percent right now. amazon prime the prime choice for customers of 2017. it was a good holiday show. >> if you can get it to me in a couple hours, sure. 5 billion items were shipped through their subscription service. companies of the hot sellers. for all the cooks out there, and the instant hot is the first time in more people signed up around the world than in any other year in the company's history. shares of amazon history 55% one year ago. weight watchers has kind of unlikely ambassador. d.j. khaled getting an a for effort. >> that's what i like about the system. get some cookies ready to do. i will eat the lunch right now. d.j. khaled of documented experience in all this progress on the new freestyle program. financial terms not disclosed. former talk show host. shares rose after it cut the deal nearly quadrupling last year. the oprah effect life gas. the jackpot now restored and $418 million. all six numbers including the mega ball last night drawling. meanwhile tonight a powerball drawing. the powerball jack positing that $440 million. a monster storm to some part could see a cyclone here. meanwhile folks in the southeast aren't used to this region. they've decided to do something about that. the police department has issued an arrest warrant for queen also. the movie frozen in disney films. here's what it said. a very dangerous girl approach with caution. she is known for her power over ice and snow. this is not the first time she's been in trouble with the law. stay inside and don't go out. >> i get up in the morning. there are places in southern virginia where i grew up daca degree temperatures like nine degrees this morning at the same temperature in connecticut are in single digits throughout north carolina. so it is funny, but these police departments and fire rescue teams throughout the south have to worry about people freezing to death in their own home. these people don't have ready sources of heat very often because it doesn't get the cold. elderly people in their homes with space heaters very often have fired because they've got one little electric space heater that's 20 years that's 20 or sullivan catches on fire. >> real quick on the amazon. i asked alexa over the holidays wichita jeff bezos and no joke she said she thinks she's prime. maria: that's very funny. that's cute. spongebob squarepants and the basketball court. the cartoon character on its jerseys. back in a minute. is this a phone?

i feel like the moves that he has made has been as much to the subject as is the message to china. while there having dinner. the tough talk against north korea the fact that isis is been defeated. all of these are messages to china we are serious do not mess around get on board. what is your take on this. barack obama was no longer president. i think that has been accomplished. whether they believe more is coming is very much open to question. they still followed their script which is a piece of the americans for a little while. under current circumstances if the projections made by cia director mike pompeo and others about how close the north has gotten in the past there is not a lot of time to waste here. talking to the chinese is increasingly unlikely to produce the kind of result that we need. you're getting down a fairly quickly to a binary choice. look at military force. these are not objective attractive options but that is where we are headed. should we be looking at this new alum branch where north korea is open to discussing the olympic games with south korea. i think it means nothing. we should be happy that north korea is willing to talk. we've talked to them for 25 years. during which time they have lied virtually every day. it's a classic nuclear peripheral elation. they perfect the complex science and technology they need to create deliverable nuclear weapons and now they just need to talk. they are meeting today in the group is looking to strike a deal on immigration. the budget deadline looms. the white house would consider legislation that paves the way to citizenship for the hundreds and thousands of so-called dreamers. the white house is insisting that building the border wall is your priority. as that is all clear to me what the administration position is but i would say this. if they don't have a position they should not be speculating on what that position might turn out to be. it requires discipline within the executive branch and if you have that then i think you have a chance of achieving the presidents objective. if they're all going off in a different directions it's very sophisticated with this type of dealing. they will take advantage of it. then i want this president to execute their agenda why should they agree to anything. they tend to get blamed when there's a government shutdown. i don't think that's fair. or accurate. and he gets politically realistic. give the midterm elections coming up. they are getting feeling empowered. we want to take the house back. why should we agree to anything the president does hopefully we'll just get to 18 and get back in the majority. i think there is a reality check coming. when a number of people around the country realize that turning over control the house of representatives to the democrats means almost by definition they will impeach donald trump. and we will face two years of complete legislative gridlock. i have to say in the senate despite all of the headwinds from washington looking at races around the country. i think republicans have excellent chances to pick up six, seven maybe eight democratic seats i still think with etiquette resources republicans could have significant gains in the senate and people need to keep that in mind it's interesting because you've got a situation here where the democrats see it differently but you wonder if that is going to play badly on the american people. they are seen isis nearly defeated. these policies with this administration is working. they think nationalizing the election as going to is going to work for them. i think that is a bad bet as you say. republicans are really primed house incumbent democrats. my super pack is going to begin independent spend the church. i think it's a seat that they can flip regardless of what happens. we will leave it there. ambassador, good to see. another winter storm bearing down on the east coast. as they're called grips the country. get ready for some cold. we will have well had impacts coming up next. they are hoping to find gold by rebooting one of their costliest failures. ♪ it's time for sleep number's 'lowest prices of the season' on the only bed that adjusts on both sides to your ideal comfort, your sleep number setting. and snoring?

compared to the year earlier. as a lowest level of growth since 2011. join us right now. bruce, good to see you. thank you so much for joining us. what we saw in the second half of the year many banks many companies had artie pre- funded and have good cash position on the balance sheet. i think they also saw a lot of uncertainty in washington. what they were waiting for was a sign that washington would get things done. and they pass tax reform. it's a very positive development. i thing it's very positive from a number of respects one i think just having company's after-tax cash flow is can allow them the opportunity to do more investments. it will be very positive. we are allowed to expense capital expenditures right away. it will boost labor productivity which we've been waiting to see for a long time. i think dealing with a overseas cash and tax problem and moving to a more territorial tax system will bring more cash investment back to the u.s. it was everyone going into the financials. you guys are taxed at such a high rate. i think in december said you're gonna get a net benefit. is that still the scenario. right now we had what's called a deferred tax liability on her books. that is really positive. but we are high rate pair. we will have a benefit. and then lastly we are reflective of the economy. as the economy picks up and demands for loans go up. faster growth leads to higher interest rates. most banks have a bias towards asset sensitive positions. you have a higher net interest margin that a lot of the peers it's about catching up to peers we were behind we had been repositioning our balance sheet to be more selective about how we play and where we play. we are making some good tweaks on the balance sheet. we've a lot of regulatory easing. the number one thing is more tailoring of regulations. there is a lot of good that comes from the regulatory reform. the instruments were fairly blunt and there was a one-size-fits-all approach. a bank like us with a hundred $50 billion in assets is not the same as the money center bank. we have to do many of the same things. what we really want to see is more tailoring i think they look at that. it sounds like a disease we don't want it. they are talking about moving it to 250. the other efforts that we have. we will take those dollars and reinvest them to better serve our customers. you mention the business you're you are doing with apple. what are you doing. apple has an upgrade program for their phones. we provide the installment credits for apple's customers. we are apple's partners. they look great. i think the average one is about 755. it's a very nice program. they have very high standards. we have very limited time to make the credit decision. we've been living up to their standards. if you have to see this kind of a move from a 40% tax rate all the way down to 21% that is a big deal. are they poised to put that money into buying back stock is interesting even seen using a number of companies including ourselves a one-time cash bonus to employees. i think there will be more investment in capital expenditure. there will be more buybacks. that creates more money back to shareholders. that is a good development. chris, it's good to see you. social media giant swiped the golden globe preshow from twitter. about the administration's planned to plan to build

infrastructure. they will meet with gop lawmakers. to discuss plans to revamp the crumbling roads and bridges. the ceo of u.s. concrete. bill, good to see you. thank you for joining us. from your standpoint. where does he need to begin. they haven't said that we have a 1 trillion-dollar plan in place. they created the infrastructure system. the world of economic forum stated that the u.s. infrastructure on a global basis has dropped to 16th in the world from a number five. the business roundtable of the ceos said that there is only for u.s. airports in the top 50 worldwide those are compelling facts of the needs of the declining state of our infrastructure is that really from a lack of money or from all of the red tape redtape that we put around building does a roads and bridges and take some times ten years to get a project to completion. the uncertainty of a tenure planning process with limited amount of federal resources. edges leads to uncertainty into projects that get delayed it does eventually come down to money. 176 of those that were on the 2017 elections all pass. and 82% pass rate. twenty-four states have increased their gas tax at the state level. as it is a bipartisan understanding that funds have to come from somewhere in the u.s. taxpayer can see a direct result of their investment they're willing to they are willing to support the initiatives. they have already gone up at the state level. i know hasn't gone up. to be specific. in august of 1993. this is how the world has changed. we have the same level of federal gas taxes with 60 million more people in this country should we get a giant of the structure package is that it could impact the pricing. is there going to be an issue there. that's can be a very good question. labor has increased the cost of sand and gravel have all increased. there can be some inflationary pressures. invert -- interest rates are still really low. what is happening out with the regulatory reform and potentially an infrastructure is in infrastructure is can extend the cycle that has artie extended through present gdp was some inflation is there. we are talking about a 1 trillion-dollar plan the president has been confident when it comes to infrastructure and i wonder if the dems are going to get on board. listen to what the president said. infrastructure is by far the easiest. we will have tremendous support. i could have started with infrastructure. we will be having that done pretty quickly. what you think. do you need at the democratic support here. the ml on the left has been destruction. and hoping that they do not get the agenda executed. i understand that. this has to be a bipartisan effort the needs are recognized by both parties. they ran on a $1 trillion of the structure bill. it's time that real leadership is shown in washington. since 1993 we had kicked this can down the road with both republican administrations administrations that had both the senate and house and the president on their side. and we're still taking it down the road. i think the american people are about fed up with it. $523 in additional nobody talks about that. on the repair and maintenance in the cost of gas. here is what bipartisan but neither republican or democrat organ to step up and say we need to raise the national debt gas tax in this country. even the people who use the roads they don't want to pay for it they don't want to pay for the infrastructure spending even though they are paid more. they are paid more in repairs and maintenance. with 24 states both republican and democrat putting some form of gas tax through. will take care of this for a long time i did not develop overnight and it will not be fixed overnight but it is a matter of national priorities. the american people in washington do not think the infrastructure is a national priority it will be kicked down the road again. i hear you. some has to he has to pay for it. we pay an awful lot for infrastructure in this country. why not just take that money. send it to the states at the level it is now. cut the redtape. and let each state figure out what to do. we will have a lot of bridges to nowhere if we are spending a trillion dollars. president eisenhower built a national infrastructure system and the roads don't stop at state lines. there are obviously projects that can help the local population. look at amazon now. look at how many goods are being moved to this distribution center. that is a national issue. it is a combination. there is not one size fits all. they will have a say in this. budget initiatives at the local level well have some say in it but it's a combination. and second of the one-size-fits-all has to be paid for somehow. what kind of a year are

progress. dan, good to see you. i think you so much for joining us. so based on your research it doesn't show you how much you weigh. this is how the scale looks like and as you seek there is no one display. here are three things we know about this scale. it's good to stand on the scale and the morning not so much in the evening. not just because we get feedback because it reminds us that we want to be healthy. you forget about the whole thing. the other two things that have happened is the weight fluctuates a lot. one is what we call dana version. you feel terrible about yourself. doesn't make it up. in the third thing that happened is that people anticipate that their body would react very quickly. i had been on the diet for whole day. my weight should certainly go down. it can react ten days later. it is confusing and demotivating. let's separate the act of stepping on the scale. and let's get the feedback in the way that is compatible with human behavior. about how to help people lose their weight and it basically figures out what accommodations are best for which a person. would you be better off with a drink of water before it lunch or would you be better off with reorganizing your refrigerator so the things that i level are not the fatty things with healthier things. consumers have an abundant amount of choices. looking at your skill it's nicely designed. but can you talk to me about the pricing how that works. you have the ai and the things that are very complicated and convoluted. what is get a make me buy your product? first of all unlike regular scales we have a lot of data to show that we are working. we did a study for five months. as a relatively low income. and we found that with the regular scale people gained a little bit of weight every month for five months. the first thing that we had is evidence that the scale is not just the scale it's actually a tool that gets people to step on the scale and appreciate it and lose weight. in terms of the pricing is a little bit less than hundred dollars. and then it basically learns about your environment. what kind of a person are you. are you the kind of person that has kids doesn't had kids can exercise in the morning, can you walk who does the shopping. we do a lot of environmental analysis. and then we figure which accommodation would be better for you. in the yearly subscription and the thing about it is it keeps on learning all the time. when you get the scale and you step up on it. you learn something over time but as you use it longer and longer there is a feedback loop between what you do and what your weight is. it basically learns all the time about what is the best accommodations to get you to achieve that. it's more than just the number i guess. coming up southwest and

white house, joining me right now rnc chairwoman good to see you thanks for joining us this morning. >> always great to be here happy new year. >> and to you, so let's talk about the legislative priorities this year, what are they? tell us how you see the year taking place. >> well, sarah sanders laid it out infrastructure immigration, welfare reform and health care, those are the legislative agendas the administration put forward i think infrastructure is is a good place to start where we can get bipartisan support i do think voters want to see republicans and democrats working together the president and republicans continually reach out lands to democrats, democrats, have not shown willingness to work across party lines this a time we need to do that in best interests of our country. >> are we overestimating the idea there is bipartisan support here? you know as well as all of us know, the fact is that the democrats do not want this president to execute his agenda. whether tax reform, or health care, or infrastructure, they want to get back and have the majority in the house so they can move to investigate and investigate and -- and eventually hope to impeach him of a playbook you are exactly right has been obstruct and resist, and stop this president at every turn, but the voters are going to say what did you do what is your accomplishment? during this past two yearss what the democratic about accomplishments been obstructing resisting not the accomplishments to run on it is important voters see republicans continually trying to work with democrats listen a bad population for them to be to be rooting against the tax cuts that are now showing to be helpful for our economy we are seeing more jobs higher wages bonuses given out, democrats are rooting against tax cuts that are going to help middle class i don't think that is a good place for them to we they have to have some accomplishment to run on why not work with republicans, on infrastructure. >> yeah, but i mean that brings me to the next question about what is happening in the senate i mean there is also you know, pushback, from within his own party he, if your uncle gets in orrin hatch's seat mitt romney is he against this president? >> i think mitt romney would be for the tax cuts just like jeff flake was just like bob corker was i think going to work with this administration we want that seat to be republican, and i think mitt has every interest in working with this president continuing to move forward an agenda that is helping grow our economy keep our unemployment rates low, helping build our military, and taking care of our veterans the list goes on and on republicans need to work with in president be nice if democrats would do that once in a while. >> you don't think mitt romney is a "never trump"er, i don't think that he seergz considered taking the secretary position he wants to see president trump do well our country do well and i think that is going to be the overriding issue for him, if he ends up becoming the next senator from utah. >> when chamber returns, for the new year today, we've got couple new faces to be sworn in, both democrats, doug jones of alabama tina smith minnesota taking the place of former democratically senator al franken, of course, former congresswoman michelle bachmann says she is considering running for that seat when up this november, and then you've got orrin hatch, ending the month of speculation announce retirement pervasiving the way for mitt romney how do things change a whats is your expectation in terms of changing the makeup of the congress? in this up coming year. >> with jones coming in, he won with a lot of republican support. he indicated that he is going to work with this white house going to be interesting to see if johnson smith will work with with white house and party leadership, every democrat in lockstep with schumer pelosi following party line at expense of the people they represent. president trump almost won minnesota alabama is still a red state, would it be nice to see them work with the president, and help move forward an agenda this is a going to help the people they represent. >> has mitt romney spoken with the president? >> i don't know i haven't talked to my uncle mitt that is not information i have, or that i can give you a scoop on today. >> so he -- so in terms of making the run for the senate we are all expecting it. >> yeah, i -- i have no ininside information i have called my dad tried to get the track i just don't know, you know, obviously, rnc chair i have to remain neutral primary contests but i am his niece, i love my uncle pli. itt i think would do a great job i hope he supports this president we need to support this president continue to move forward i saw firsthand, the president ability to resonate states mike michigan that he represents a different type of voter that has felt voice ignored far too long we need to continue to fight for those people, we have done that with tax cuts middle class tax cuts going to continue to do that through 2018. >> your job to keep the momentum on this republican side a third of the senate wholly house on ballot this november pb, how do you keep the majority really in place given the fact that you know that the democrats are -- especially after tax plan, even peter king from new york why he couldn't vote for tax plan his constituents are going to say you just took away our salt deduction, how do you keep the majority? >> well, the rnc raised record money we are posting highest number raised in history of the rnc preparing for midterm typically against the party that holds the white house, so with that money we are already on the ground, in 21 states, we are working with our voters, we are getting in front of them talking about the good things we're doing, and then going to take a message to them about the democrats, we will remember in november you weren't there for middle class tax cuts you weren't there when we wanted to get our economy kick starting again, and we are going to r50i78d voters are you better off than you were two years ago look at our economy, look at how much is improved under president trump i think that is going to be something that is going to resonate with voters going to be pushing that message at rnc already doing it. maria: i think really important message, that is what got donald trump in the white house pop. and that is what got the majority in congress as well, but there is another part of the story for the democrats and that is this corruption around the clinton campaign, and the fact the fbi department of justice certainly leadership there was apparentlied complicit around election, just protecting hillary clinton even if there were criminal acts there is is that going to be a major story line for the republicans come november? >> well, something that our voters are concerned on, about, and they want to see, more information come out, and understand what exactly the clinton campaign was doing if there was any type of collusion with the government, but i think come november we are going to be making the case of republicans put policies in place that made your life better unemployment down military doing better, isis on the run, everything that the president ran on, we are delivering on, and that is a path we want to continue on for this country. and that is the message the positive message i think we are going to take to voters in november i think that will resonate. >> sounds good message see you soon thanks for joining us this morning. >> thanks for having me. >> good to see you, coming up, u.d sr., officials blocking the china base financial from dividering u.s. moneygram

questions over hillary clinton e-mail probe republicans on key congressional committees, reportedly uncovered fbi documents stating the sheer volume of classified information, that flowed through clinton insecure e-mails progressive of criminality according to the hill the investigators confirmed the fbi began drafting clinton's exoneration statement before agents introduced dozens, former house speaker newt gingrich mr. speaker good to see you happy new year to you. >> -- good to be with you, and all of this stuff i think going to keep coming out i think it is -- a sign of just how corrupt object justice department was how corrupt clinton state department was how corrupt frankly clinton foundation is things coming together, and i think they are going to keep coming out i think going to be a worse as people realize how hard some people worked to avoid the truth and to avoid doing their job. maria: but -- but what is going to come out? what will happen as a result of this? i mean i am as town halleded to read some of this stuff first fbi agents from bruce or.r. his wife worked at fusion dwgps created dossier peter strok wanting insurance policy in case trump won on the other side we know there is evidence right now, of actual criminality given immunity deals like for example the guy worked at e-mail company said oh, yeah i had an aha moment i actually did delete a lot of clinton e-mails, after lying to the fbi saying he didn't delete what was he given immunity, so really newt where is this going we've got evidence in our faces, and nothing is happening. >> no, i think things are happening i think congress is doing its job, i think the news media begun to realize this is a gigantic story john sullivan others have been doing an amazing job, of appeaseing it together despite resistance from media two things i think as historian we understand how close we came, to a real disaster if hillary had won if hillary won all of us -- swept floor the rug system would decay into disruptions dishonesty cronyism would continue to grow in that sense trump a disruptive figure breaking up insideer deals corruption clearly criminal behavior i think that is important to remember the second thing this goes to the heart of the american system. we have to rely on rule of law, wire very diverse country, we have enormous potential tension in our country all the time, people have to have some sense of faith that they are going to be judged equally before the law, look at general phillip's treatment and look at clinton cronies treatment. >> given immunity. >> i defy anybody in america to tell me this is currently a fair system, this is a rigged corrupt system, and it is going to have to be cleaned out. and i think whatever it takes whether it takes soeessions firing people at fbi whether the congress, going through a direct confrontation it is going to have to be done, because otherwise the american system is gradually going to decay become there is a cancer, of illegal behavior remember this is at the heart of the law enforcement community, isn't minor thing this is the very core of the american system of law enforcement that was being corrupted by obama, and by hillary clinton. >> the lawlessness out of control! and now dagen earlier you he mentioned that op-ed from fusion gps, we should mention this right now because the founders of the firm behind the dossier, that aim to paint then candidate donald trump in salacious light did op-ed said they were shocked about details revealed in the report of the commission op-ed in "new york times" founder glen simpson peter right this we hired mr. steel -- came back shocked us steele in russia not paid reported on expensive now confirmed effort by kremlin to help elect there trump president, mr. steele saw this a crime in prosecuting decided he needed to report to fbi said dossier did not tricker the fbi russian meedline wanted to expose donald trump business ties to russia what a crock, i mean seriously. [laughter] honestly, what is the evidence dagen that they didn't use this dossier, to actually justify wiretapping donald trump and his associates? dagen: we don't know, because rosenstein will not deputy head of justice would be the say anything christopher wray where are they we have to see what gets -- the house, and that is another problem, that is you one of the reasons that the president has been -- >> you got to love the language the wordsmithing we don't believe the steele dossier was trigger for fbi investigation into russian meddling they believe? well what is for sure what has christopher wray testify let's have jeff sessions instruct his people to give documents to congress. >> the rest of the medium from peter strok and misstory. >> newt's point he said a corrupt system if you remember debbie wasserman schultz enabled brothers to -- 80 congressional computers paid 5 million dollars to do it back to newt's point talking about how you this all would have been swept under the rug donald trump was elected, because hillary clinton sat up there with smug face goes did you wipe your e-mail servers goes, remember when she did that. >> voters saw right through this. dagen: i think a big question here. >> mr. speaker i would love to get your views on this, you were in congress, about several decades ago it was very different place congress had very different powers, does this congress today have the power to compel people to testify, and to produce difficulties, or has congress given up too much of its power? . >> look i think comes down to old saying no guts no glory. the united states congress has normal latent power i will give you two capitals first of all, they may well start moving to subpoena people and to turn into criminal charges, and remember rosenstein is part of this whole mess you go back look at who who were together, back in the period when for example, creating independently council to try to destroy dick cheney same people same gang, and i think -- came out all are tainted, second, very simply model, cut off the funding. say we are going to zero out the justice department, unless it does what we are requiring it to do. and simply don't include the justice department in the omnibus watch how rapidly they decide they can do what they need to do. >> is that realistic mr. speaker i am asking do these guys the political spine to throw people into prison because that is what it might take. >> the question -- >> this is a a different question first of all, the part of the irony is that if they do have a motion of contempt it is reporting to the justice department to be enforced, which is why you could never get it done under clinton i mean under obama because the obama attorney general simply won't enforce it second, i am going to the ultimately way the constitution is designed. give -- we were very tough about these things, the congress has the power to simply refuse to fund an institution which is not being obedient, in fact it is designed that way the federalist papers describe that power for that purpose. we don't want to have an executive branch which can run amok ignore elected represents of the american people i say justice department has could be trontsdz at some point with reality, the correct me if i'm wrong is not going to tolerate being kept in the dark, and being lied to -- >> quick, today is the deadline for those documents to be sent to the intel committee if they don't get all documents from fbi department of justice who is comfortab about accountable. >> i think you start with whoever they have subpoenaed, and you work your way up. but i would say sessions is accountable he is attorney general. >> right. >> he has to do his job. and sessions i mean i can't understand why sessions is not instructing his as you as you to obey if they don't ins understand why not firing them, it is not like the system is out of control, except for the absence of people willing to put it in control. you can control this system if you want to. we have had he scandals before you got to look at size of teapot dome 1920s enormous, but all people went to jail ultimately proud the documents, and i think we have to have the same attitude here i will say nunes has been courageous in procuriursuing th despite social pressures on him. >> he has trey gowdy the powers, in this, we will see where they take it newt good to see you, sir thanks so much. >> good to see you. >> newt gingrich there, bringing breaking news take a break president trump tweeting on deadly iran protests here is what he wrote such republican for people of iran try to take back corrupt government you will see great support from united states, at the appropriate time. the president just tweeting that out. we will be right back. . maria: welcome back, can he repeat oprah's success with weight watchers fpls independennicole petallides on the floor of the new york stock exchange. >>
