after their initial background check christine does a ford has accused kevin arthur salting her in high school he denies the accusations the senate is set to hold a procedural vote on his nomination on friday u.s. vice president mike pence accused china of interfering with american politics and technology is beijing is using economic and military tools as well as propaganda to advance its interests in the u.s. let's go live to our white house correspondent kimberly hellcat in washington d.c. there is some strong words there from the vice president. yeah there's no question that this is a stark contrast to the early days of the trumpet ministration when the rhetoric was subdued when we saw a president trump hosting chinese president xi at his mar-a lago resort in florida really reaching standing a hand if you will hoping that not only there could be improved relations with china but also that cooperation may lead to better and warming of relations with

10:13 pm
is taking concrete actions building up its military building up its nuclear arsenal and also readying further tariffs that could be implemented in early january if china does not heed this warning there is concern about aggression on the part of the united states the china has been asserting aggression in the south china sea and also that there needs to be out improved relationship the mike pence saying in fact that he does still hope for an open relationship with china but at this point at this juncture they do not see this happening that's why they're not only forging new relationships with nations like china and samoa but also we're seeing this very sharp rhetoric and posture coming out of the trunk administration can really help it thank you very much still to come on the program more protests against yemen's president as the reale continues to spiral and food costs keep rising. and we report on south africa's unemployment crisis one hundred thirty percent of people
