chuck schumer knew it. what's been happening? it feels like this is, they're making it seem like breaking news when this has been sitting out there for two months. >> chuck, this is the harsh reality that democrats are facing trying to govern and do big things with a wafer thin majority in the house and senate with this 50/50 majority hinging on senator joe manchin, a democrat who won in a state president biden lost by 39 points. now, for the first time manchin has publicly stated a number that he wants for reconciliation, 1.5 trillion in spending. he said it should be fully offset and any additional tax increases should go to that deficit number. now, very notably here manchin was asked if that was his final offer, asked repeatedly moments ago. he did not say that is his absolute upper limit maximum. to your point, chuck schumer the democratic leader knew this for months. it is not clear if he thought he could move manchin or if he had something else in mind. he has not tempered expectations. schumer has kept them very high for

chuck schumer knew about it for a couple of months. he's leaning on the far left of his caucus to believe they're going to go for broke in the $3.5 trillion bill. i'm wondering if chuck schumer is hearing some footsteps from aoc in the new york primary next year. >> brian: really quick, 168 of the 2,000 page bill, we're looking for fines $70,000 to dlb 700,000. that will destroy so many small businesses. the irs goes on steroids. you think they're going after amazon, you're dreaming? they're going after small business. final thought? >> yeah, all of the efforts for bureaucracy, whether it's the coded police force or giving irs tens of millions of dollars to come after small businesses to put more power in the hands of bureaucrats in washington. >> brian: who knows if it will pass. senator tom cotton, thank you so much. that was not tom cotton on the phone with nancy pelosi. we have news. my little pony joined antifa. but first, joe biden's secretary has a simple answer to parents upset by their kids being taught critical race theory? s

chuck schumer can do his job. i have voted -- >> neil: so nothing was linked senator -- i understand. but to be clear, nothing was linkand if it's a stand-alone measure that you would be okay with? >> in terms of raising the debt creel something. >> yes. >> no. in terms of funding the government? yes. if you want to continue to fund the government and avoid a shut down, which chuck schumer can do without a single republican vote, i'd be happy to have that discussion. have to look at every one of these compromises the in past. there were several bitter pills i had to swallow to vote for increasing the debt ceiling. chuck schumer last a take it or leave it attitude and he has to take responsibility for it. >> neil: all right. they say it's a take it or leave it altitude with republicans. one way or the other, maybe we'll see this sorted out. senator tom tillis, thank you. >> thank you, neil. >> neil: you might have noticed the big numbers on the green in the corner of the screen. the dow storming back today. had not

chuck schumer says a deal has been reached to avoid a u.s. government shutdown this friday. he risks to president biden's economic agenda remain. no need to fret. leading central bank chiefs try to reassure the markets over inflation. we get the cpi readings from france and germany today. and a power crunch bites. activity and china contracts for the first time since the pandemic began. very good morning. warm welcome to the show. it is transitory, you know. that's the reassurance from the central bank. i do like christine lagarde's very precise direction. they don't believe it is transitory. 30 basis points. 25 basis points in the last week. herein lies the point. bank of america encapsulated it all for me. where are we in this stage of interest rate grief? the first state is recognizing the driver is good. the second stage is frightening. bank of america saying we are in the second stage. that has a lot of issues for credit. good morning. dani: good morning. your bond markets might be repricing but let me tell you what's happening on wall street. people are getting ready f

meanwhile in the politically cringeworthy moment of the day, new york senator and majority leader chuck schumer in an interview while attending the new york state fare claimed that all americans who wanted to leave afghanistan have in fact left the country. >> still focused on trying to get some of those brave afghans out. >> preston to clean up mode after the gaffe, the office issued the statement.

we just finished a seven-week recess, and speaker pelosi and chuck schumer and senate leader are trying to ram through seven years worth of spending, a $1.2 trillion fake infrastructure bill, and a $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill. i won't bore you with the specifics but right now today as we speak we have $28.8 trillion national debt trillion dollars national debt. think about that. we can't afford either one of these spending bills. even if we could they are not worth buying. so on tuesday i i urged repubn leadership to start going against the $1.2 trillion so-called bipartisan fake infrastructure bill. i'm happy report on wednesday whip scalise announced at our republican study committee meeting they would be officially whipping against the bill. which is a formal republican position in the house of representatives against this phone infrastructure bill. these bills, both of these bills the reconciliation bill, the infrastructure bill, are a package. one can't exist without the other. we have given house democrats a tight window and they can't afford to lose more than a couple of me

that word from senate majority leader chuck schumer. a vote on bidens infrastructure measure is scheduled for today, just a little way from midnight government funding is supposed to expire. schumer says the bill will likely be signed into law before that deadline. hours earlier, president biden gave new meaning to the term closer with an appearance at the baseball gape or he was putting pressure on congress to pass the funding bill. >> the date for this game was set along time ago. no one imagined it would collide with this big milestone, but he

chuck schumer's gonna have his. votes nancy pelosi will ever votes. she is skilled as anyone we have ever seen a sin in that country in the country says. so there's a lot of choreography going, on a lot of discussions. but i'm gonna go with, jonathan and the price tag, whether it's three point, five or, three what's important is what's in. it i hope this isn't, true but this could be a once in a decade opportunity. once the next time the democratic parties gonna have the ability to get this many people with the power they have? but have to get in people's homes, talking about the child, credit you have to be meeting with health care, workers have to be talking about people who can't work more hours because of childcare assistance, we want to talk about broadband and climate. let's not think -- forget the thing that is most popular, how you're paying for it! which is asking the wealthiest in this country, and companies, to pay their fair share. so the politics of this should take care of themselves. if you really spend the next 14 months really, really

knowing that all republicans were going to vote against the bill and kill it, chuck schumer brought it to a vote so that he could make a speech telling the country just how irresponsible senate republicans are >> what the republicans in the senate did tonight is not normal this isn't your typical washington frack car, and it shouldn't be treated as such it has far more severe consequences than the typical political cat fight. republicans know the consequences of their obstruction. they know its default would likely create a recession. they know that middle class families will suffer immensely they've heard the same warnings that we have and by many calculations, the republicans at fault will raise the deficit by more than the american rescue plan and yet republicans still obstruct it tonight. >> chuck schumer is surely hoping senator joe manchin is watching how unreasonable and reckless the republicans are as senator manchin continues to resist changes in these senate rules to change the 60-vote threshold, the rule that empowers republican irresponsibility and empowers republican attac

host: the democratic leader on the floor, chuck schumer, yesterday. now, the minority leader, publican senator mitch mcconnell of kentucky, responded to him. here is what he had to say. [video clip] senator mcconnell: republicans are signing a spotlight on the reckless spending spree that democrats are writing behind closed doors. the radical list it -- left is pushing and all-new tips. using the pandemic as a trojan horse for permanent socialism. in president biden, identified as a moderate, is opposed to stop them or does not wish to. an avalanche. an avalanche of crushing contracts that would hurt families and help china. health care decisions, childcare charges, family finances, and daily lives. trillions upon trillions more in government spending when families are already facing inflation. none of this, of course, will get a single republican vote in the chamber. the democrats have not even consulted us. they have not tried to earn our votes. from the start, they plan to use a party line, fast-track process to ram through the senate this version

they've mostly deferred to chuck schumer and nancy pelosi. i would imagine they may want to stop doing that in the next couple of months. >> jake sherman with "punchbowl news." thank you. >>> if you want to sound smart today, tell your friends, governor newsom is just the fourth governor in american history to face a recall vote and just one gubernatorial recall has been successful fwhac 2003 when democrat gray davis was removed and replaced with republican arnold swartz anything jeer still ahead, the totally different look and the in-person rern of the annual met gala.

he has not given nancy pelosi or chuck schumer any help. he has not given them any of the public assistance to push on selling the agenda, on pushing the moderates and progressives into a lane. host: adrienne elrod? guest: joe biden has been talking about this agenda since his time on the campaign trail when he was running for the democratic nomination. he has been traveling across the country since he was first sworn in as the president, talking about this agenda. he has been having behind the scenes meetings. he has been transparent throughout the entire process. he is still continuing to have these conversations to try and get the overall democratic caucus to a place where we can have the majority of votes pass. he has been invested in this. host: could president biden have broken this up into smaller parts? guest: i think you have to at least go into your first year as president in a big way. you have to go big. if reconciliation does not pass, he can approach some of these very critical issues in a smaller, more piecemeal approach, but

i haven't even talked to chuck schumer. it was clear in this moment we were not making progress. in fact, recent back and forth with paper showed me that we were actually moving away from it. so i am not stopping. i imagine that it is something that he has said very purposefully that is important to him. tim scott and i have had both had horrible, personal experiences with police officers. there are shameful things that have happened to us and members of our families that should not go on in america. we know about the history of policing in this country. we know that there have been people tragically, over and over again, abused, beaten and killed by police officers in an unjust manner. so this work must continue. i will not give up. >> joining us now is a participant in this negotiations, democratic congresswoman karen bass of california. congresswoman karen bass, so many people on the sidelines were saying from the start, no way, it's homeless. there's cory booker, even after all of the setbacks he has had. and having, in effect now, given up on the negotiations with tim scott,

this was an agreement made by the democratic president joe biden, chuck schumer, the lead democrat in the senate and nancy pelosi in the house. everybody agreed, okay, we're going to do two thing, pass the bipartisan bill and a reconciliation bill. >> you made detect the fe facetious inside of my question i'm a country lawyer, you know who never heard about it? joe manchin, he is roughly aware of big things in congress. but we did put together a little history lesson. take a look. >> make sure you understand that when people say, well, i'm not going to vote for this unless i see that. there ain't going to be no -- bipartisan bill unless we are going to have the reconciliation bill. >> how much you are not going to do if they felt there was a deal made. >> i never heard of the bill. >> you never a part of the deal? >> i never heard about that. why do you think we worked so hard to separate it? >> howard? >> this is a problem of two senators from states playing some sort of game. can i predict what manchin is doing. because i served with him. i know manchin, sinema is the problem. they'

what do you know about this that chuck schumer announced today? what in it changes the state of play? >> garrett, we do not have the details on what was agreed to, but the key part was that the house previously had not planned to pay for the entirety of the package and the senate had insisted that they would pay for the entire package so we would not drive inflation, and that was an important premise. and this statement, that whatever the size of the package there's agreement between the house and senate it will be completely paid for that's what's significant right now. >> we should take the fact that chuck schumer gave this announcement standing side-by-side with speaker pelosi as an agreement, then, as you're saying with senate democrats say this whole thing will be paid for, house democrats now agree they will find the revenue to make those two line items match up? >> that's right. >> okay. >> my colleague from oregon who heads finance was very involved in this. there's been a big menu of options based on the premise that every american paying

this is not nancy pelosi or chuck schumer. this is the most conservative bedrock republican senator saying zero on this claim that the election was stolen. >> and robert, in the book's opening pages, you two write that joint chiefs chairman general mark milley believed january 6th was a planned, coordinated, synchronized attack on the very heart of american democracy, designed to overthrow the government to prevent the constitutional certification of a legitimate election won by joe biden. it was indeed a coup attempt and nothing less than treason, unquote. that's what milley believed. i mvean, was he wrong? >> our book carefully documents based on our reporting what chairman milley believes, but it also documents how close the united states came to having a presidential election thrown to the house of representatives. it comes back to this memo and other efforts behind the scenes. one of the key scenes is january 4th john eastman this conservative lawyer confronts vice president pence in the oval office in front of president

. >> chuck schumer worked out a deal, giving the republicans a guarantee of votes on three republican amendments before you get to the continuing resolution. and the government will stay open until december 3rd. >> and we'll then do this all again for absolutely no reason whatsoever. because the debt ceiling is something invented in world war i to appease isolationists from that conflict. maybe it's time we got over it. >> thank you, rachel. the breaking news is not about infrastructure legislation. it's about the more immediate business of keeping the government funded after midnight tomorrow night. when current funding runs out. and they have reached a business as usual deal. chuck schumer has reached an agreement with republicans that will allow a vote tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. on a continuing resolution to fund the government until december 3rd. if that holds overnight, there will be no government shutdown tomorrow at midnight. and so there you see the senate working as it is supposed to. but in other senate news, there is a bit of a mutiny under way with two democrats blocking the o

so he needs to find a way, he needs chuck schumer to figure out how to navigate this so that they are not jeopardizing the countries credit standing and putting the economy into a tailspin the very moment that he is trying to boost it forward. >> claire mccaskill remember what was it a cast on -- back in the day when all the constituents, and all the elected republicans in the senate calling to washington to remind him that their finances and 401(k) s were on the line, staying on brand here from mcconnell, could really, i know it's not you're leaning concern extract a huge cost when you're trying to take over the senate. they can't really go back to their home state and campaign on. we actually voted to take your 401k. >> and keep in mind here if mitch mcconnell actually pulls this off it will actually be their fault. that the country default. everyone in this country knows it's an even lead to finding setting. everyone we've had enough focus on the filibuster to understand it takes 60 votes. this notion that all of a sudden will always taken a bike artisan vote, that all of a sudden

in terms what we actually heard from lawmakers, senate majority leader chuck schumer alongside speaker pelosi and treasury secretary janet yellen this morning telling reporters they reached an agreement with the white house and both houses of congress on how to pay for this reconciliation bill. the rest of it went unsaid. it's got us with a few questions here. specifically, what the price tag on this bill is going to be, as well as whether or not the reconciliation portion of this will continue to hold up the bipartisan, more traditional infrastructure piece of this. still a lot of tension between factions in the democratic caucus. hearing how speaker pelosi put it. >> bringing our legislation forward, it's ready. we didn't say anything about the price tag but talking about the values contained therein. we are for the $3.5 trillion be in because that was sent to us. marked up to that and now go to the next step. i think we're in a very good place. >> reporter: a few notable things there. bring the legislation when it's ready. that may or may not mean monday. monday, although a lot of d

about 90 minutes ago, senator chuck schumer and house speaker nancy pelosi were here at the white house talking about all the issues that were going on. last minute drama, the house did a little while ago, within the last 15, 20 minutes, pass a bill to suspend the did not ceiling until december 16th of 2022. house speaker nancy pelosi before that vote used some harsh language. listen. >> we cannot predicate our actions in the house on what could happen in the senate. we can't when we coming to agreement on a bill, but in terms of this, i have no patience for people not voting for this. reporter: there were a few moderate democrats waivering over this vote that could open the door for of the larger social infrastructure package. two democrats actually voting against it. so the house speaker says the vote for the bipartisan infrastructure bill could happen tomorrow, but adding late today she is not sticking to anytime table. senator chuck schumer blinking today, saying he will put up a continuing resolution to keep the government funded through december 3rd as a stand-alone bill with emer

majority leader chuck schumer is onboard with that agenda. you have to remember we made a promise to the american people to deliver on these items and to create this real investment in their lives and we must do that. >> congresswoman, so we obviously have a $1 trillion hard infrastructure bill out there. the sources we've talked to said it looks like the moderates are closer to a $1.5 trillion to $2 trillion that focuses almost exclusively on the pre-k provisions and also the provisions for seniors to help at the beginning of life and to help at the end of life. i'm curious if you could get that, that would be $3 trillion in infrastructure, hard and soft infrastructure spending. would that be better than nothing? >> joe, you remember this conversation started up with $6 trillion. once we started adding up the numbers on the kind of investments we wanted to make in child care, in preschool, in paid sick,addressing the climate crisis we ended up with $3.5 trillion. now they have to do the math and see where that number ends up. we can't have a

first, chuck schumer. obviously the "politico" team, the document that shows july 28th, senator schumer signed off on senator manchin's parameters of a $1.5 trillion spending bill. they both signed it, manchin signed it, schumer signed it. needs-based testing, means testing, for example, for the child tax credit, it lists no additional handouts or transfer payments, and it does raise the corporate tax rate up to 25%. i guess the question i have is that schumer said he never agreed to the conditions, but his signature is there, okay? he didn't not read it and sign it. >> i don't know -- >> how do you feel about this? this is july 28th. >> first of all, i don't think chuck schumer can sign away policy for 48, 49 other members of the democratic caucus and the senate. i suspect all he thought he was signing was acknowledging that this is what joe manchin's position was. but again, he can't bind 95% of the democrats in the senate to that position. and so to me, that's kind of one of these documents that is mean
