I wanted to start with a philosophical question. You have written that universal coverage is the morally worthy goal, michael, you were the author of what you call the anti universal coverage manifesto. I want to get you to fight about this. Why dont you start and explain why you think from a freemarket perspective it should be the governments rolled to provide universal coverage . I would put it slightly differently. I would put it this way. We never say when you hear people like michael cannanore a number of people say we can never outbid the left on covering people with Health Insurance we should try to outbid them but do something that is not publicly accessible in the middle somewhere. We would never say that about smart phones we would never say freemarket cant outbid the government on the ability of every american to have a smart phone. We would save 3 markets cant outbid the government on giving People Better jobs and more Economic Growth. Why is it we accept the progressive pr
Here is a look at the nasdaq. Both of which did not do as well as they had hoped. That was something that hit Goldman Sachs. You have Michael Court that over at citigroup. It was not as strong as they would have liked. Ashley nicole, thank you so much. Lori bernanke giving to be what is expected to be his last appearance. Hate, lori. It was a little bit of a History Lesson from chairman bernanke. Some of the measures, as you know have continued to draw criticism on capitol hill. Listen, i know that there are folks out there that are critical of the fed. Hopefully some of this pressure will abate. As we tell our story, more information comes out about why we did what we did. They understand what we did was necessary. It was a main street set of actions aimed at helping. I am hoping that these political concerns will wait. He also acknowledged up for him personally the most credible risk of trying to unwind all of this and wind down qe and starting the tapering and shrinking the feds for
Began early in the afternoon when a woman allegedly struck a barrier outside the white house. She attempted to ram her car into the white house gate. She got out of the car and allegedly began engaging with police with a gun, firing some shots. That is still a little iffy. We dont have confirmation of that yet. She then got back in her car and wrc, which is the nbc affiliate in washington, has this exclusive video which were going to roll for you right now of the we believe is the car moving down the road. As you can see theres a black car thats going to come into view. You can see it in the distance. Thats wrc. Its an exclusive. Thats the nbc affiliate. She goes down the probably about two miles between the white house and where she eventually ended on capitol hill. At that point, she rammed a police car. That is when one of the Police Officers was hurt. Initially we thought that a Police Officer had been shot. But kim dine, head of the Capitol Police, says that no officer has been sh
I dont know why you are always an apologist and many of your colleagues apologists for the republicans position. Have multiple notebooks and notes in. Can you hold up what you have been referring to in our questions. Is there anything on it . The letterhead that says the United States senate. Stole the show. Ainsley confirmation hearings yesterday she took all those questions. Her note pad was blank. She didnt take any notes. She knew a tremendous amount about each of these cases. Very impressive. The blanks note pad yesterday from 9 to 8 00 p. M. Yesterday. The senators spent 10 hours and 31 minutes prodding her about abortion, lgbt rights. Asking her if she committed sexual assault. If she condemned White Supremacy and her kids sat through it all. I was impressed. They were there the entire time. Steve she was on tv more yesterday than the my pillow guy. Brian not easy to do. Steve quite a feat. Brian so many ways of making pillows i never tire of them. Steve thats come today. Brian
Good evening. Welcome to a special edition of out front. Im pamela brown in for erin burnett on this friday. Tonight, a blistering takedown. A federal Appeals Court flat out rejecting trumps efforts to challenge the Election Results. A trumpappointed judge writing in the opinion, quote, the campaigns claims have no merit. The number of ballots it specifically challenges is far smaller than the roughly 81,000vote margin of victory. And it never claims fraud or that any votes from cast by illegal voters. Calling an election unfair does not make it so. That is the truth. That is those are the facts. But president does not want to hear that, because accepting that reality would mean that the president becomes what he fears the most, a loser, and a sore loser at that n. A statement, bidens campaign writes, this election is over, and donald trump lost. Both in pennsylvania and nationally. Again, those are the facts. But trump is not living in that reality. Instead he is spouting off more dan
