00:00Is it clear to you who Senator Schumer should be calling and negotiating with at this point?

00:05Is it Speaker Mike Johnson?

00:06Is it Donald Trump?

00:07Is it Elon Musk?

00:08Let me say this one more time.

00:09There is no one for Leader Schumer to negotiate with.

00:14The Republicans can't get their own act together.

00:19And until they can, there's nothing for us to do.

00:22We have a deal.

00:23There's a deal sitting on the table.

00:25You know what?

00:26If the Republicans right now could go back over there and vote, send the deal that had

00:32been negotiated, which would pass because it would have bipartisan support, send it

00:37over to the Senate.

00:39I predict it would pass the Senate and we would be done, crisis averted.

00:44But the Republicans would rather have a crisis, would rather blow this up because they're

00:49all doing whatever the great and powerful Mr. Musk wants them to do.

00:53Do you think there's going to be a government shutdown?

00:56Elon Musk.

00:58Senator Elizabeth Warren, we'll see if he joins us out here on the balcony.

01:01Thank you for that.
