Horizon on the senate side, one republican is already against the bill. The g. O. P. Can only afford to lose it to go vote on this. Democrats say they dont like i it. Im worried about this bill will do to our physical health as our country and the middle class. Altogether the core elements of this plan amount to 1. 7 trillion in tax cuts and my republican colleagues are simply asking us to trust them that the benefits will somehow reach the middle class. Harris chief washington correspondent John John Roberts live at the white house, john . The president feeling pretty good about the fact that the tax reform bill passed the house, even the 13 republicans voting against it, lamenting the fact that no democrats supported it, now turning his attention toward the senate which as you pointed out is the next stop in the tax reform train. It was voted out of Committee Last night on a partisan basis, the president clearly is looking at another potential in the senate where there is no democratic support for this bill even though he would like to see it. The president has a similar problem in the senate with the one he had with obamacare, six senators saying theyve got misgivings about the plan, senator ron johnson if you want to go back to that graphic, senator ron johnson of wisconsin saying he cannot support the bill in its current form but says he does want to fix it and get it into a place where he can support it. It bob corker of tennessee, mccain and flake of arizona have problems with it, adding writing to the deficit. Senator collins and senator rand paul of kentucky also have their own issues with it. Among the issues some republicans have, the fact that it eliminates the state and local tax deduction, some analyses have found that in higher taxes states like california and new york, some middle income earners will actually pay more tax. The treasury secretary Steven Mnuchin acknowledge that some people will pay higher taxes but he insists its only those who make more than a Million Dollars a year, also saying a reduction in the Corporate Tax rate is going to be good for everyone, listen here. The peoples texts were going to go up by the rich people and high tax states, but again, theres a lot of benefit to the new york economy of lowering the corporate rate to 20 , thats a huge move for the Financial Services industry. Democrats in the senate are keeping up the drumbeat that the tax reform plan will raise taxes on middle income earners, however steve scully said this morning he believes that enough republicans will come on board to pass the bill, listen here. This will get on President Trumps test, it will sign it and you will see Economic Growth and job creation that we havent seen in decades. Its going to be great in america. One major difference between the house and the senate bill, the senate bill contains a repeal to the Obamacare Mandate. Sarah Huckabee Sanders said the president would like to see that in the final version of the bill across his desk, which means the house and senate will have to work that out between themselves in the conference committee. She did say thats not an absolute for the president , if the bill gets to his desk and doesnt include a repeal of the Obamacare Mandate he would still likely sign it. Harris all good to know as they try to get something done, john roberts, thank you very much. My next guest has some fighting words for the senate, a member of the House Finance services committee, i understand that you guys are getting it done and you have a question for your senators across the chamber. Thats right, harris, it goes back to the debate we had on health care reform, we got our job done and they didnt get theirs done. There are some positive things happening, when we brought our tax bill out and we passed our tax bill, senators didnt come after us, they didnt tweet at us, they were pretty supportive of it which means i think there is a wide level of support with republicans in the senate that we had to get this done. I think the Biggest Issue is you just mentioned, this issue with getting rid of the individual mandate of obamacare, that is not going to be a problem in the house. The big issue is they stripped out the salt tax issue, those high tax states like new york and new jersey and california, we are going to have to put that back in because we have a lot of house members who need that to vote for this package. Harris i am just reading some notes, he said the house has passed more than 300 bills that have been left on the desk of the senate. There are not a lot of working days left for congress between now and to the end of the year. The senate says its going to take this up right after thanksgiving, you mentioned a couple of Sticking Points in all of this, what if it doesnt get done by the end of the year, thats a fair question because of a lack of working time, do you kick this into 2018, what does that look like . With the senate, sometimes we cant tell whether they are in session or out of session because nothing ever happens over there, that is frustrating for us passing an agenda that cant get done over there. Im pretty confident on the timeline, you saw it past Committee Last night, they are going to bring it up to the senate floor after thanksgiving, which is a good thing, which gives us time to go to conference and get it done before christmas which was the plan all along. If we dont get it done by christmas, i think the odds of tax reform happening after the first of the year, those odds diminished greatly because what changes on january 15th versus december 15 . Not much. We should be able to takes care of tax reform earlier rather than later, i am not pleased with that but ive got to tell you, i am more pleased than i have been with how they handle tax reform than anything else this year in the senate. Harris we played a couple minutes ago, Kellyanne Conway called it swamp speed catching up to trump speed as the house gets it done. Ive got to tell you what, there is a level of term speed. He wants the house to move, he is a man of action. He came to the conference yesterday and he was energized, excited, he knows with the stars for Economic Growth. I saw you on outnumbered, you are talking about tax reform is important but what you do about the deficit . Its all about how we address that after tax reform, what do we do with some of the mandatory spending that drives up the deb debt. Harris when do you work those things out . You dont have the time to work them out in conference committee, when you going to work on that stuff . They are not going to be in this tax bill, this tax bill is about growth, we bring in more revenue. The mandatory spending side, President Trump does not want to get into that as well as buildings and roads and bridges after the first of the year. He knows this is important for us to balance our budget but for tax reform to grow our economy. Harris youve got at least five, john mccain above them, collins of maine who say they are on the fence with all of this, a firm no from ron johnson of wisconsin although the jury is still out on whether thats just how you get attention sometimes, come down really hard, we dont know that thats the case but it can work like that on capitol hill, right . Ron johnson is a wisconsin guy and so am i. He is concerned about the passthrough, which is the smallest business, thats great. There is a problem with it, we know that but its complicated to fix it, we are to get it fixed right and make sure we take care of small corporations and companies. Ron johnson is going to be yes, i feel pretty comfortable with that. You see the fight donald trump has had with some of the senators, they are the ones on the fence. In the end i think they understand this is about growing the economy and those senators who have run campaigns about making sure we drop this Corporate Tax rate and give people more of their money in the middle class i think youre going to be there because its good politics, of a growing economy means better votes for republicans. Harris i cart what you just threw down there, you are talking about those senators who had to go back and forth, i get what you are saying. I know you were watching outnumbered, always good to see you, thank you very much. Meanwhile, kayla moore, we brought you this live anothers mart more to the story. She is the wife of Alabama Senate candidate roy moore, she is speaking out today alongside a group of women to support her husband amongst growing calls for him to step down amid allegations of sexual misconduct. Fox news paul is saying moores support is flipping, he is behind democratic candidate doug jones. Peter doocy, that was a big group of women they had, kayla moore out front today. Several of the women we just heard from a few months ago were very upset about what they see is a double standard, that republicans in the senate, including the Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell have asked for roy moore to get out of the race even though he denies all misconduct, all accusations, all allegations but they have not yet called for senator al franken to resign or step aside even though he admits wrongdoing and he admits that some of the accusations against him are correct. Still, kayla moore, judge moores wife stood in front of the State Capitol in montgomery and said her husband is staying in this race. Let me set the record straight. Even after all the attacks against me, against my family, against the foundation and against my husband, he will not step down. Thats what a majority of alabamas voters want. Voters were asked, regardless of whether they believe allegations against him or not, should he stay in the race . 54 to say he showed it, and that includes 75 of republicans who want him to keep running. There are new questions this afternoon in alabama about part of moores defense. His lawyer claims that accuser beverly lee young nelson had moore of her divorce lawyer in the 90s. The campaign was trying to raise questions about, if that was the case, why would she not Say Something up at the time. There is no proof that the accuser actually appeared before moore, he only signed the motion to dismiss, Court Records dont indicate that she ever appeared. Another judge signed all of their filings in the case, the democrat in this race, doug jones is campaigning today in the southern part of the state, but despite his rising poll numbers, he is not risen his profile at all, only averaging about an event today. Harris i can tell you one thing, roy moores victory fun had to raise its goal in a matter of hours because they were raising money pretty quickly. That fox news poll also shows a little bit of trouble in double digits for roy moore with women. Peter doocy, thank you very much. New reports, special Counsel Robert Mueller had a big surprise for the Trump Campaign even as they cooperated with his investigation. We will tell you what apparently came out of the blue. Plus, senator Kirsten Gillibrand of new york has become the highestranking democrat to suggest that president bill clinton should have resigned over his affair with Monica Lewinsky. In clinton world is hitting back. Is it your view that the president clinton should have stepped down at that time given the allegations . Yes, i think that is the appropriate response. Alright, i brought in high protein to help get us moving. And help you feel more strength and energy in just two weeks ill take that. Yeeeeeah ensure high protein. With 16 grams of protein and 4 grams of sugar. Ensure. Always be you. Harris a fox news alert, new questions on the russia investigation, reports telling fox news that special Counsel Robert Mueller has issued a subpoena to the Trump Campaign, it happened last month and covered about 140 people. This despite the fact that the campaign has been cooperating with the probe and a voluntarily handing over information. The source describes the subpoena as one meant to capture records already provided to congress, lets bring in charlie hurt, opinion editor and columnist for the Washington Times in a Fox News Contributor as well. This catching the trump team off guard, whats the significance of moving in it seems like a surprise move, is it . Maybe it shouldnt be such a surprise move giving the tactics weve seen so far. This is this is classic mueller intimidation tactics, we saw with the Early Morning no knock raid where 12 agents raided Paul Manaforts home in july, his wife was still in bed, agents hassled her while she was still lying in bed. This is all designed to intimidate people and make people understand that these guys are very serious and they intend to find something that they can charge these people with. Harris what we know about the people on this list . Obviously all people in trumps orbit, worked on the campaign are worked inside the administration, and i think they are hoping the main reason for going enter any of these people is because they want to eat people they can put pressure on to get to higher people, bigger fishes and so i think its all up and down, at all levels of the administration or the campaign. Harris the wall street journal called the subpoena the First Official order for information from the campaign, sending a subpoena to the entity that says its been cooperating with the documents, thats what also makes it surprising. It will be different if the trump team had not cooperated at all. You are talking about a situation where they really have. Thats the whole point of it, it has nothing to do with getting the information, that is a side benefit and much of the information theyve already gotten. Either from those sources or from other sources. What they care about is the intimidation tactic and thats what they are doing here. Quite frankly, from my perspective, i think its a big reason why this investigation is very dangerous, we tend to try to protect the president from all kinds of influences of threats and things like this, i can think of anything more threatening to hold over and administration then Something Like this, especially when theres been very scant evidence of any wrongdoing or any collusion with russia. The only real collusion weve seen has been on the other side. Involving the clintons. Harris does this indicate, the handle of angle of all of s is to get the investigation to e to a conclusion for everybody, does is move the ball forward or is this just more maneuvering . I think it probably does move the ball forward in as much as it means that this is behind us and they dont have to do more subpoenas of this nature but ill be honest with you, i dont have a whole lot of faith that they are going to let up any time soon, i think they are intent on grinding everybody surrounding trump into the ground until they get something and i guarantee it will have virtually nothing to do with russia or some scheme to collude with russia. Thats not at all what they are going to find but they are going to find other things, just like they can find something in just about anybodys background if they look hard enough. Harris isnt that part of the reason why republicans have been saying, if youre going to do this, look on both sides of the aisle, if there is nothing there, you find there is nothing there but if there is at least look into the democrats. The trump dossier that has a british spy collecting information on a former president ial candidate and the dnc wanting that information, these are salacious details that happen to be back. Smart republicans are saying that but an Alarming Number of republicans in washington im saying that and that worries me, it really does give credence to the idea that the entire swamp, bipartisan swamp is out to get donald trump. Harris last question for you, it has to do with the scope of the probe, ive talked with judges and other experts about the fact that it almost feels unlimited, timeless and of course its our money. Yes, they have to go back to congress to get the funding to keep it going and thats always a Sticking Point but again, if you dont have full throated defense against this, though congress will gladly just keep writing that check if it really is the swamp versus trump. Harris Kellyanne Conway was talking about taxes, you can apply it here. Swamp speed. This news is breaking right now, i am going to look down on my mobile device because we are just getting it this way, Jesse Jackson has just disclosed publicly for the first time that he is seeking Outpatient Care and has been for two years for parkinsons disease. He says he plans to dedicate himself to physical therapy. In a letter today to supporters, by the way, reverend jackson is 76 years old, you know him, former civil rights leader and an icon in the community, family and friends noticed a change in him about three years ago. He writes about this in this letter, he says he can no longer ignore symptoms of the chronic neurological disorder. Recognition of the effects of this disease on me has been a painful and i have been slow to grasp the gravity of it. For me, a parkinsons diagnosis is not a stop sign but rather a signal that i should make Lifestyle Changes and dedicate myself to physical therapy in hopes of slowing the diseases progression. Jesse jacksons, parkinsons, hes been getting therapy for two years and now he is making it public. It looks like the left may be starting to turn on bill clinto bil
