2
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,879
Speaker 1: forty five degrees in Boston at four o'clock. Good afternoon,

3
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: I'm Ben Parker. Here's what's happening. Aiming to shut down

4
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,119
Speaker 1: the shutdown. Republicans in the House are trying to pass

5
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 1: a government funding bill tonight, but House Democratic Leader King

6
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,600
Speaker 1: Jeffries assists his party will fight to the end.

7
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 2: One question is how many Democrats in the House will

8
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 2: cross the aisle to end the shutdown. Eight Democrats in

9
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 2: the Senate supported the measure, drawing the ire of progressives

10
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 2: from coast to coast because the bill doesn't include an

11
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 2: extension of expiring Obamacare subsidies. Assuming there's full attendance in

12
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 2: the House tonight, Speaker Mike Johnson can only afford to

13
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 2: lose two Republican votes before needing the support of Democrats

14
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: to get the bill onto the President's.

15
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 1: Deskry is ABC Stephen Portnoy. The Trump administration says there

16
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: might not be any jobs or inflation data for October

17
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 1: because of the shutdown. That data is used by Federal

18
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: Reserve policymakers to compile the monthly consumer price index and

19
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: jobs report. The potential disruption coming as the Federal Reserve

20
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,120

Speaker 1: at its next meeting in December. Democrats of the House

22

Speaker 1: Overside Committee investigating Jeffrey Epstein releasing a series of email

23
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,839
Speaker 1: excerpts that reference President Trump. In one of the emails,

24
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: lawmakers say Epstein wrote to his now convicted accomplice, Glaine Maxwell,

25
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: I want you to realize that dog that hasn'tbarked is Trump.

26
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: Epstein added that an alleged victim whose name was withheld

27
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: by House Democrats quote, spent hours at my house with him.

28
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 3: President Trump says, House Democrats are releasing these Epstein emails

29
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 3: because they're trying to quote deflect on how badly they've

30
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 3: done on the shutdown. The President, in a post on

31
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 3: social media, urges Republicans to not get distracted, writing quote,

32
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 3: only a very bad or stupid Republican would fall into

33
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 3: that trap. The President doesn't address any of the substance

34
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 3: in the emails released today, including Epstein's claim that Trump

35
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 3: spent hours at his house with an alleged sex trafficking

36
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,920

45
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 4: speculation he wants to remove Venezuelan leader Nicholas Maduro from power.

46
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 4: On sixty Minutes earlier this month, CBS is Nora O'Donnell

47
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:29,680

55
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 1: district should have a representative who can harness the creativity,

56
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: energy and drive in this district translate that into political

57

101
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 3: dad and just like that, I'm here.

102

103
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:05,320

104
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 1: most expensive places to live in the country, and it

105
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: is getting worse. According to The Globe, rents around here

106

112
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: for any major metropolitan area at just three percent last year.

113
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: The report ranks Boston as the fifth most expensive in

114
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: the country. If you are thinking of making a move

115
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,159
