. >> if this bill is not pulled to the right in the house, we saw what steve king did with the dream act. this is a major test of whether or not our political system can get real things done. and i do believe with the bipartisan support we have seen in the senate, that there's a chance, if all these poison pills are not placed in its path, that we could see a path to getting this done this year, immigration reform. >> you use the word poison bill to describe the amendment. it is 134 pages long to a bill that's 800-some pages. it's long because there are provisions, special exemptions for foreign ski instructors. important according to the senator from colorado. this is a complicated thing they have put together. it's the killer bs, benefits and borders. if you don't secure the borders, you're not going to pass either. >> and i think -- how do you secure the border? there's a bipartisan way to do it. let people come through the system. that releases the stress. you need to legalize the 11 million here so we stop deporting them and they come back to their american-citizen children. las

ones from steve king that would basically take away that order that president obama did about dreamers, one that would allow any officer of the united states to become a de facto immigration reformer. that's the path the gop is going on now which is very different than the senate gop. looking at this, joy, right here right now, this looks like a very difficult path for the senate bipartisan gang of eight bill in the house. john boehner called the trigger mechanisms from border security in that bill laughable. that's a huge rebuke to marco rubio who could be the standard bearer? 2016 to have the republican senator call it laughable. that doesn't boyd well in the house. lastly i'll say this, joy. what has been the one thing that has made john boehner and the house republican congress have to go to the table and have to work? it's been deadlines. it's been them being in the corner with a gun to their head that if they do not act, then something horrific happens. there's no deadline on immigration reform. it's not like if they don't get it done by this date that suddenly the flood gates wi

king, tom price, mike lee, ted cruz. these are individuals who -- pat toomey, who from the very beginning either from the beginning of the movement or from the beginning of their team as a public official have really understood the goal and the message of the grassroots movement, and they -- they've listened to the people, and that's all that grassroots has ever wanted. they don't want politicians in their pocket. they just want the politicians to listen. again, it comes back to that con sent of the governed. >> is there one sort of, i guess, on the wish list, who do you think right now if the tea party could select one to run for president, who do you think would be sort of the one that would be most appreciated by the tea party to run? >> well, mine i have my personal picks. thing do you're going to get a varied answer from the tea party depending on who you speak with. i have a number of people i'd like to see take a run for it. a lot can happen between now and 2016 so i'm a little bit hesitant, but i would say i woul

. >> in terms of those objections, though, i feel like the calculation was always that the steve kings of the world and that the very anti-immigration stall wart would be able to say their piece. but then some combination of all of the democrats and handful of republicans that could safely vote that would would get it done. is this still a possible outcome or are there more people objection than were expected? >> you're seeing that act thing play out in the senate. what you saw on the floor with the senate with sessions objection was a concession to jeff sessions, who is leading the charge against many gracing in the senate. democrats agree to give him the floor for a few hours today. in exchange for being able to vote early next week to start the debate on the legislation itself. but what you're going to see next is a turn to the house of representatives where all eyes are going to be on speaker john boehner. who is going to have to decide that very question. he has a lot of control over what happens on the floor of the house. more so than in the senate for the leadership over there.

right now several house republicans including congressman steve king are holding what they are calling the all-day news conferences on immigration. here is congressman randy weber of texas with a peek at what they're talking about. >> mr. president, build up this wall. >> obviously a play on the fact the president gave his speech before the brandenburg gate today but despite verbal back and forth, there's good news from the independent congressional office. it found the bill would reduce the deficit by $197 billion over the next ten years and cut 7$70 billion over the next 20 years. house speaker john boehner plans to meet with members of the house hispanic caucus. while immigration was not on the original agenda, aides say it is likely to come up during the discussions. you can bet it will. let's bring in "news nation" political panel. let me start off with you, ann. we have this all day news conference. a number of people there. we pointed out randy weber's play on building up this wall. they say this is about border security. is that truly at the heart of what's going on here? >> ce

the steve king amendment, the anti-dreamer act -- >> i want to ask a question. you're in the real world talking to grass roots republicans. is it enough to have all this new border security if the price is all these new citizens who were originally undocumented illegals? >> we can't have automatic amnesty. those here in d.c. need to look at not what's best for their leb election, they have to look at what's best for the big picture. we have to stop the river flooding of people coming across the border and bring it down to a trickle. that's the most important thing. and we need to make sure those who are here illegally go to the back of the line and start the legal process after that. border security is the most important. >> "godfather" part three. sometimes movies are so bad but they keep making the sequel. but why keep making them? that's next. ♪ and she forgot to pay her credit card bill on time. good thing she's got the citi simplicity card. it doesn't charge late fees or a penalty rate. ever. as in never ever. now about that parking ticket.

lawmakers such as michele bachmann, steve king and louis gohmert will settle for nothing less than self-deportation. it's going to take a lot more than marco rubio to change their minds. loretta sanchez, democrat of california. good afternoon, ma'am. >> good afternoon. i want to talk to you about immigration in a second. first, do you have any comment on the fast that's taking place at the moment in the house of representatives, this day long debate and a vote which we're expecting sometime after 5:00 on abortion? >> well, as you know, it's never the democrats who really are trying to make this issue of abortion an issue. most of us think that this should be taken care of either at the state level or that people should or that the supreme court has already ruled on then before. the people have the right to their privacy, that women have the right to understand their own bodies. and so it's really sad to watch once again when there is no legislative agenda, when there's no jobs agenda moving forward by the republican party that they allow their conservatives to come onto the house floor and go after

king and tom tancredo and pat buchanan and joe arpaio and jan brewer. the anti-immigrant image of the party. try to change that by trying to get at least some of your party to support centrist immigration reform, like what happened today in the united states senate. that's one way to do it. try to make yourself more attractive to latino voters by doing something that latino voters like. or you can do what they do in texas. texas republicans are not so much trying to appeal to latinos. they are more just trying to make sure latinos can't vote. in 2011, texas republicans passed a bill that said you'd no longer be allowed to vote in texas unless you could provide documentation that you never had to show before, and that not everyone in the state has. governor rick perry signed that voter i.d. bill into law and then the federal government wrote the state of texas a nice note about it.

steve king from iowa, a republican house member held a six-hour press conference yesterday where groups came out in droves in support of the tea party killing the senate bill. no this bill might pass the senate dealing with border security, but in the house it could die. >> is it the drubbin that republicans took the a the polls the last name around that is really driving this bill do you think? >> tkhasee why i'm talkinthat's why i'm talking about the policy of race. the republicans want the his haste vote. hispanic went to the democrat particular party in droves. doing this little stroke of immigration reform is not going to bring hispanics to the party. if people are doing this for political reasons, this is not going to work. jon: because a fox news poll asked how important is it for congress to pass immigration reform. only 44% of voters said it's very important. 32% said somewhat. 2r 22 perfected22% said not important at all. i just wonder whether the politicians are getting out ahead of the feelings of the people. >> it is important that the immigration bill as the gang of eight

another republican, steve king, from iowa, he made the point that they received new analysis from the briefing with the federal security service, russia's fsb, on the boston bombing suspect tamerlan sar my yes and his mother. >> the opinion tamerlan and his mother were of radical idea before they came to the united states. >> some specific we didn't pay attention to this detail or that detail but they didn't pay attention to the big picture and the big picture was all screwed up and then in that our people were not cooperating as they should have and vice versa. >> reporter: now, the segal factor, steven segal was in the room as some members of the delegation gave really overwhelming praise about the role that he played, credited him with setting up very high-level meetings within the russian establishment, particularly with one of russia's deputy prime ministers and credited him with setting up that briefing with the federal security service. when segal was asked about it afterwards he says, yes, as a matter of fact, i did. now it appears to have been something of divisive point with

and congressman steve king had this to say on this subject. >> what we've got, generally, was that tamerlan left two days after one of his two buddies was killed. and it was, i guess it was july. but they didn't give us the date. one thing we wanted to find out is when he bought his airplane ticket. >> also raised at the meeting was exactly when the russians believed that tamerlan and his mother were radicalized. because the congressmen said that they believed that the russians said that as far back as 2003, they were aware that tamerlan and his mother had become radical islamists. and this was also discussed and raised in the issue that needs to further inquire. >> thank you so much for that. >>> from there now to front page politics. new details about a possible timeline for immigration reform. here's senator chuck schumer on "meet the press." >> we're going to put immigration on the floor starting on june 10th. i predict it will pass the senate by july 4th. we're hoping to get up to 70 votes, which means a lot of republicans, and we're willing to entertain amendments that don't damage th

king of iowa offered an amendment which basically would defund the president's program to defer action on dreamers, so it was a vote basically to continue deporting dreamers and in the midst of the effort to pass the dream back, this was a serious step backward the fact that it got a majority support in the house. the dream act is probably one of the easiest pieces -- >> stephanie: yeah the low hanging fruit on immigration. >> exactly. so if that has trouble getting through the house -- all of that being said i think they will pass a bill. i hope they don't tamper too much with what the gang of eight came up with. although i don't want another barrier in the lbgt community. >> stephanie: yeah. >> but if we can fix that and i hope we will on the senate floor, and we can make sure that we keep family-based immigration alive and well that's a pretty good bill, and my hope is the house will take it up without amendment. let the gop bring up individual pieces so members can go on record any way they want but hopefully the speaker will agree to abandon the [ inaudible ] rule and let the bill

you have on immigration, you have congressman steve king from iowa who tweeted that his office was being invaded was subject to an alien invasion an alien invasion of illegal aliens. you have the governor of mississippi who made a statement recently that the decline of our economy is due to women going to work. so, they are absolutely clueless. and they are extreme and it is why we need a different majority in the house of representatives. >> bill: there has always been a few whackos even among the democrats if we be honest. right? but i think what i find different here, congressman, is that in this case the whackos are driving the train? right? >> yeah. look. no party -- >> bill: the republican caucus? >> both parties, the democrats and the republicans have members who are ideological. no party has a monopoly on compromise. the distinction is when we were in the majority, we compromised. we had our differences within our caucus but we compromised. we pursued common sense solutions for the middle class. this republican majority views compromise as betrayal. >> bill: yeah. >> they want to

i think speaker boehner prebl wished that steve king of iowa hadn't offered that amendment. >> right. >> but what's interesting is what happened when he did. the people who didn't want him to operate on the republican side still went ahead and voted for it. it messed up what had been a bipartisan homeland security appropriations bill. >> yeah, that is a troubling sign. this is an issue i think that needs addressed quickly. congressman van hollen. thank you for joeng us this morning. >> we can shake hands. >> we were going to hold guys while you were holding hands, thank you congressman and joe, we'll send it over to you. >> thank you. i tweeted now. >> you have? >> no. >> does retweeting count? >> no. >> oh, then i haven't. susie did. i re-tweeted susie. you have to follow me to find out what she says. >> i will. i follow you. >> you do? i don't tweet. you don't gaet lot, though. >> i follow you. >> we gaet lot from jack. much more from our guest host jack welch and mexican billionaire car loss slim, more of mcc's exclusive interview, plus more on that nsa leak scandal from james bamf

and especially when you have bills like steve king's that passed last week in the white house, that would end with -- it would rescind the president's executive orderer for allowing dreamers to stay in the united states. so, i think there will be pieces that draw public attention and that -- i mean, it depends on which chamber we are talking about, whether that helps or hurts the bill, i guess the long and short of t >> reed are you were mentioning this a little bit earlier, talking about the midterms coming up, 2014, latino -- not passed this year, which political party you think will be most responsible for the outcome. the 500 late team niece were polled in this, 9% said it would be the democrats' fault, 39% said it would be republicans' fault and 48% said it would be the fault of both parties together. how heavily did the 2014 midterms weigh on how these opponents of the bill are going to be making their case? >> let's not forget there are two different kinds of elections in 2014 i said earlier, a primary contest in which members of your own party, the ones you are voting and general
