would show it cuz i think it was a nice uh, maybe i will, i think. and i just basically uh it was uh, a little bit of uh, an inspirational type letter. you know, what, joy it, to a good job. important, very important. how important the job is, but i may uh, i think as it was a nice letter, i think i should let people see it because it was a positive for him in writing it. i appreciated the letter after noon. no, not at all. no, not at all, it was just cold. they look if we would have, you know, i just went out to the helicopter ride to, to uh we said goodbye. that's a tradition. as long as i looked at before, it used to be a stagecoach, and then helicopters came along, but that's been a tradition. you go out and you do that and we stood there for 10 minutes and i'll tell you what people would not have been able to get through the day that was

called. it was sort of interesting. don't let the sun for you. tell me something sunny days can get very cold kept that goes that was so freezing yesterday you couldn't have gotten through. it would have been and the answer is no. that's it wasn't secure. with that being said, i thought the capital, the rotunda was beautiful. 72 degrees. unbelievable sound. you know the if it's like being in an opera house, i could see people wanting to do it there rather than outside security. there was a to, i think that was enough time. it's uh, we take a job, you take a job, you want to do a job, we're not gonna have security on people for the rest of their lives. why should we? i thought it was, i thought it was a very dumb person, but i used them well because every time people saw me come into a meeting with john bolton and sit standing behind me. they thought that he did attack them because he was

a war monger. he's the one that got us involved along with cheney and a couple of others to convince bush which was a terrible decision to blow up. the been least, you know, we blow up the middle east and we left then we got nothing out of it except a lot of death. we killed a lot of people and john bolton was a, you know, one of those guys is stupid guy. but no, you can't have that for life. you shouldn't expect it for like the president was. well, there are a very rarely, i don't know. i mean, look, presidential lensky would like to have peace. it is telling me that very strongly liked to have peace, but it takes 2 to tango. we'll see what happens anytime they want me, i'd like to see that and millions of people are being killed and they're being killed. it's a vicious situation and they're now largely soldiers. a lot of people's people have been killed in the cities. they look like demolition sites, buildings, massive buildings bombed and coming down. the thing with ukraine is it many more

people die than you're reporting. you're not reporting the real numbers and i'm not blaming you for that. i'm blaming. i'm blaming, maybe our government for not wanting to release those numbers. many more people die than what you know about when those big buildings come down and they say 2 people were injured. no, no, many people, thousands of people have been killed. but the people, the real killing now is on the waterfront. it's a very flat land. and the only thing that stops a bullet is somebody's body, and you have young soldiers, so rushed as low as about 8 100000 soldiers. now, you craigslist, about 600 or 700000. i think the numbers are low that they're giving out and, but they'll, they've lost massive numbers of young soldiers. and that war should stop. it's very flat. you know, it's beautiful farm land that is flat and really beautiful and a different kind of boy, but they don't have any protection. the only thing that stops a bullet is

a body. and those bodies to stop and a lot of bullets and they getting the big decimated both sides terms. when who said parents can do one about which one about tabs. we didn't talk too much about tariffs other than he knows where i said, look, i put a large tear of sunshine. i've taken in hundreds of billions of dollars until i was president. china never paid, not $0.10 to the united states with me. they paid hundreds of $600000000000.00 us over more, more than that, even of tariffs. and if i didn't do that, you wouldn't have a steel mill open in the united states right now. you wouldn't have one steel mill open in the united states. so what i did is i saved the steel industry. i saved other industries do with other there's other other countries are, are big abusers also, you know, it's not just china, china is an abuser,

but the european union is, is very, very bad to us. they treat as very, very badly they don't take our cars, they don't take our cars at all. they don't take our farm products. essentially. they don't take very much. we have a $350000000000.00 deficit with the european union. they treat us very, very badly, so they're going to be interest in for tariffs. only way you're going to get back is the only way you're going to get fairness. you can't get fairness unless you do that, but the european union street is very barely, but essentially everybody treats us badly. you know, everybody just barely yes. go ahead because we allow them to, because we've had stupid people doing this and we can have, i wouldn't have, i'd like to have these 3 people negotiate for us just for one week and we'd be a rich country again, but won't be rich on a data centers, well you were saying st. biden's, executive order, that opens up federal land,

one of which enters as well. you are send president vitamins executive orders that opens up federal lands for data centers and energy. no, i wouldn't do that. the chance to be like is something that i would like. i'd like to see federal lands opened up the data centers. i think they're going to be very important. again, we have a lot of competition for that. so it's an honor to have these 3 great people, great, great ceos and great geniuses, all 3. it's an honor that they want to come to our country, but we're going to make it as easy as we can for them because other countries want them to. i'm going to have to go now. thank you all very much. thank you. so this donald trump calling the day to presidency over to speaking to the roosevelt, the white house image, i think initially focusing on ne, i initially had spending a wide range of issues from the drought or lack of it is who would have it. and kind of for new, despite well, the government, certain scientists say to friends and old to retire from 10 percent on china at 2

more terrorist on the you coming off, he says, and how inflation garza the hostages. the invasion of ukraine would never have happened, had he been president and how he received a very nice letter from joe biden. let's bring him, i kinda who's been following that at the white house, mike, wide ranging as i say. but for us, his focus on artificial intelligence on a i yes, well that is what this was here. busy about to discuss this massive project that is being launched, involving a number of major tech companies, $500000000000.00 that will be falling into that over the next 4 years. major tech companies involve such as article open a i as well, we understand as well. the others are being built in, such as a video, the chip chime. so this is an age of projects that to bulbs the, the construction of massive data centers. the construction of which is already underway in texas. we are told but

a very interesting exercise in partnership between the tech industry and the trump administration. now just the whole of this as well uh, from a robust one of the ad joe biden. it could the executive orders, which try to improve the protection of consumers from a i development this what executive audit was stripped away yesterday. so already the trend obviously had his eye on this a mess of a i, expansion of that, the government is beckoning, that his administration is backing and that a large amount of tech companies are involved in, idaho. so as i say, a wide range of other subjects just touch on some of those that he was talking about. well, it was a stream of consciousness that we got used to doing his best. and well, actually it's not something that one does get used to. but what is absolutely confounding is the amount of full swords that were made during the manufacturer

to rambling. for example, he defended his own to freeing those involved in the events of january the 6th by pointing to by business partners that were also handed down shortly before by the lift office partners. he said that we've given to criminals. now we're talking about a full, much ahead chief of the i'm says of stuff of the defense department. we are talking about, they going to be most respected medical scientists in the world and to be foundry, which will combine all the members of the committee. that's congressional committee as that investigate to the events of january the 6th. these can hardly be classified as criminals. we heard from the president that las angeles is ad throwing its vote a way into the ocean is not a shred of evidence that this is, in fact, the case we've heard as well. that oft repeated thing that the 2020 election was

fixed. he is continuing to say that despite the fact that course throughout the country, you have ruled that this has an absolutely baseless assertion. so once again, it's a technical issue in a way that we are hearing and they use conference or the setup to discuss a particular aspect of something, a wide range of statements, some of which may be correct, some of which are peyton 3 polls. and this is something to remind us of the 1st of uh, the trump administration. it looks like it's going to be more of the same in the 2nd to them. but just to repeat, the, the, the initiative is something that is incessantly protect, sleep immensely beneficial to the united states. i just want to bring up one of the points that was made where he was saying that the european union does not contribute a not to defense. he was throwing this in with his criticism of nato. well,

quite simply, the european union is not a member of nato, it's a totally separate organization than they to. and so we are having these statements thrown out all the time, which all supported to be absolute cruise. this is one of the difficulties of covering and administration like this is uh, continue effect check as to exactly what is being said and to look to the public. when peyton, full sorts of possible as a complete to cruise data, we have to buckle up with that. mike, kind of thanks very much indeed that mike kind of at the white house. let's take a deep dive into all of this with there. and rupa, who's an independent janice covering us politics. jones is now from minneapolis or in great have you with us? say yes, we had a wide range of stream of consciousness as it might put it the let's start off with this is characterized ation of a criminal convictions of members of the proud boys. and the j 6 is, is that cold?

why did you make a to yeah, i thought it was extremely notable that when the trump was asked if people who have assaulted police officer should be pardoned, he said no initially. and then when he was pressed on, one of the specific pardons that he issued for a man who attacked a police officer in january 6 with a stun gun. you know, he basically said, we're going to have to look at that. you know, some of these cases were just commuting well. he already issued this guy a part. so you know, unless he's going to on part in this person, you know, it's a pretty meaningless statement. and so, yeah, i mean, i think you're seeing that trump is kind of trying to have it both ways on this where, you know, he still talks about the january 6 criminals as hostages. and obviously the base really likes that he's pardoning these people. but on the other hand, obviously, you know, when you're trying to be a president to at least the claim stands for back in the blue and supporting police . you can't really, at the same time, you know, part of the people who've assaulted police officers. and so it was completely incoherent, and that was exposed during the press conference. but you know,

as your guys, your reporter was this deal or detailing. uh, this is kind of signature. trump, you know, we should be used to this by now the data. what about the bolts or issues of california? he said, he told the story about how he was driving through california, and there was clearly no drought to told is the mastery of supply this, despite the fact of the government, the national integrated drought information system says the extreme record on the record dryness has expanded i'm intensified droughts in central and southern california including in the area of the california wall 5. yeah, i thought that was really interesting too because it was almost kind of a slip there where trump, you know, use talking about some of the water restrictions in beverly hills. and he mentioned this 38 gallon figure, which hit me as being kind of made up. i don't know where that comes from. but then he talks about how if you're a rich person in california, 38 gallons, you know, might seem like a lot to keion. but if you're a rich person, you like to take long showers. you know, 30 a gallons actually isn't that much switch. i think kind of speaks to the way that

he views the world. and then of course, the of the comments about the water flowing down from canada and how if california officials just turn the valve as he put it, there would be no scarcity of water in southern california. i mean that, you know, it's kind of ridiculous explanation of water issues in the southwest part of the country. but, you know, again, this was part of his 1st term as well when they're wild phone buyers in california . he went out there and be rated officials for not sweeping forest floors. and um, you know, it is kind of frustrating that we have to deal with this again. but you know, this is how trump, when it comes to environmental issues, kind of concedes of things in a very child like and unscientific manner. all right, and then what about his, his view of how things like inflation. because of the, the hostage situation, the captive situation within because it is an invasion of ukraine order that would never have happened if he had been president or yeah, i thought it was interesting that of course when the ceasefire in garza was announced last week,

trump initially tried to take credit for it and then as soon as he actually took off his yesterday and was asked if he had confidence that the ceasefire would hold, he said that he does not. and that is, israel's hor, basically, and he did the thing that he's done regina be with north for me, or he talked about how you know and does a, there's great beach front and you could have condos there. he suggested he actually said the same thing yesterday. when asked about north korea, so you know, this was always kind of the folly of people who thought that trump would be good for the palestinian people. is that obviously his view is that he's real, needs to do whatever it can to kind of get control of its borders and that piece and is real. and once that condition is match, then they can talk peace from there. so, you know, i always seem to be pretty obvious that trouble is not going to be good for the palestinian people. i think a lot of people got kind of full by that and you know what trump was really conceiving of in terms of peace in israel and in gauze, i think became clear yesterday at nonetheless, the initial premise of this gathering. and the reason felt really the white house was all around the subject of the project of artificial intelligence. how i is

going to be significant part of the administration's policies. what did you make about? and it was a lot of empty words to me. this is kind of the signature from as well where he will have these business leaders kind of flanking him, sort of endorsing him. you know, sam, old man, praise them during this, the president that he just has. 3 and there's a lot of promises made about huge investments, you know, hundreds of billions of dollars for, you know, investing in the us for plants and manufacturing. and you know, oftentimes these things don't actually come to pass, but it makes for a good sound by maybe some good headlines in the moment. so i think this with just trump, you know, trying to kind of generate some good headlines by making some announcements that may or may not come to pass kind of aligning himself with these, you know, old dark business leaders in the us. you know, but this is kind of one of the ways i think, trump manipulates the media, is that he's good at having these events kind of getting the announcement out there . and then by the time, you know, people figured out whether or not it actually happened and often times they don't

happen. the new cycle is kind of moved on right there. and we'll leave with that. thanks very much for that to air and reply. independent journalist speaking just from minneapolis. thank you. thanks for having me. well, donald trump pick from baset to to the united nations is a peer to the confirmation hearing. and he says, stephanie told sentences that she agreed with the far right is ready minutes to both of those small church that israel has a biblical right to the occupied west back. and fisher has moved out from washington. mister, do you want the public and majority of popular support? at least the phonics should be an easy confirmation for you and, and best of the promising a full review of you incorporation was she placed the new fee to new york would follow president trump, so gender. it is imperative to insure a strong american leadership, american leadership at the united nations. i share president trump's vision of a u. n. reform by strong america 1st peace through strength and return to this founding mission of promoting peace and security around the world. in an exchange

with democrat correspond hall and on the important issue of the middle east. she refused to acknowledge palestinians to the right of self determination. i asked you in my office also about whether palestinians have the right of self determination. my understanding was you said yes, you have a different answer today. that was not the direct question that we discussed by set the power you've been with people. how students have the right of self determination. i believe the palestinian people deserve so much better than the failures that they've had agreed on. there are leaders pretty simple quite and i believe then she was active. she agreed with far right is really politicians that is really had a biblical claim to the entire westbank. but i did ask you whether you subscribe to the views of finance ministers, some of which rich vote. i'm sorry, if i'm outraged this is rarely finance ministers. most rich and, and the former national security minister, ben, you the, or who believe that israel has a biblical right to the entire westbank. and in that conversation,

you told me that yes, you share that view. is that your view today? yes, donald trump has talked about the 2 state solution in the middle east, but not recently, if the phonic is reflecting his position no. this marks a significant change in us policy from the past and heading to the un in new york island for sure. i'll just see that on capitol hill in washington, when it's ready for us is they've killed in these 10 palestinians and an ongoing rate of need. you need refugee camp in the occupied westbank ministry vehicles. we used to rate to come after call was hit by an asteroid, under salutes reports now from amman and jordan, because these ready governments and the posting, you know, authority of band out 0 for reporting in israel and the occupied west back. it's these really military's biggest operation in the occupied westbank since the start of the new year is really forces say they're targeting what they call terrorism

image in the refugee camp for, for the residents of jeanine. this is what terror looks like for the saudis brother was walking in the neighborhood when he was shot and killed by israeli forces. does it have you put this in brother, but he went to get bread from the shelf nearby. he was shop last night for an elderly man was among many targeted by the indiscriminate shooting, but somehow wasn't hurt. thousands of other palestinians have been injured, including children like this one boss with others on the receiving end of is really fire, were bleeding out in the streets of janine as is really forces blocked ambulances from reaching them. and then none of the i'm up here now we can't give an exact number for the wounded because they are so many, an ambulance is called reach them to bring them to hospitals. the rate comes after

a stand off between fighters and the janine camp and the palestinian authority. after more than a month of siege and elsewhere in the occupied, westbank is really forces arrested $64.00 palestinians this time in club clean, the palestinians in the occupied westbank face. * austin, threats living under is really occupation. army raids, coupled with violent settler attacks, have significantly increased since the start of israel's more on garza. and now with president trump back in the white house palestinians, fear the situation will only get worse. the central does eat all. i'm a starving attack and television is left for people injured. is really media reported that the silent was shot dead by a civilian with a personal firearm attacker has yet to be identified by police. it happened in a busy area with cafes and restaurants. and this the 2nd stop being attacked in television 4 days, as well as the cx 5 holds in gaza trucks carrying desperately

needed humanitarian aid to rolling into the strip. the entering through the roof are crossing in the south of you and says more than 900 a truck center. this trip on monday with $897.00. following on choose day seats. 5 agreement between israel and hamas allows at least $600.00 to enter this trip daily honey, my food has more now here and so i had been rode. the arrival of 8 of trucks is offering a glimmer of hope to the people of gaza, who have endured unimaginable suffering. the trucks unloading essential supplies, food medical equipment, and other critical items that are urgently needed by thousands of displaced families. these aided trucks across the gaza, through these really controlled current, both styling and crossing marketing a significant step forward in the cease fire agreement 1000 bucks into but still the needs are a huge well calling on to enter more and more

a to gaza in order to elevate the people's suffering and to have proper should bring to the people who are misplaced, and we are waiting for that at the end of hundreds of thousands of people. hospitals in particular, are in desperate need of supplies. with dr. struggling to treat a rising number of patients, especially the children and the most of the hospitals were already suffering from the blockade imposed on gaza and deliberate prevention of needed medical equipment . our operating status and not equipped for the overwhelming influx of injuries, we have acute shortages. we will force many times to conduct surgeries without anesthesia, a pain medication, cause that means not only medical supplies, but health hospitals need to be safe and well equipped. while the ceasefire has brought a pause into violence, it work as worn down to human nature situation remains

a critical the blockade. compounded by the reason conflict has lived dogs infrastructure ruins, making it difficult to distribute a to those in need. to solve that for the, you know, for a long time, humanitarian aid was very rare. and we started to feel this way in rough. our city as 8 and commercial products became scarce in the market because of people who are totally reliant on a really felt that today marks to the 3rd day of the ceasefire that we hear trucks filled with age are being allowed in. but on the ground, the situation remain very difficult. as i say, as fire holes, the focus now shift. so making sure these a delivery is continued to address. the long term needs the people for now, the arrivals of the the trucks is a small but a significant step toward using the suffering of a population caught in the crossfire mode via from there. but actually the how to sign now, a hotel fire to ski resort. kentucky is killed in the 76 people and then just more

than 50, it happened and caught up tie in the crow blue mountains to the northwest. the blazing delta 12 story hotel was wooden planning. so you know, cause you to as more now once this fire started, it spread quickly. the hotel in the popular to or to secure resort of carts. ok. yeah. was hosting more than $200.00 gas. many were trapped on the upper floors. some jumped from the windows, a janet ishamley on the. my wife woke me up, we woke up to the smell of smoke, unsure if there was a fire, as no alarm sounded. in a panic, we ran to the lobby and then decided to go upstairs. unsure of the fire souls. upon seeing flames and 6 smoke, we rushed downstairs to the sky room, barely escaping staying on the 3rd floor. we saw flames on the 4th floor approaching us while we were trying to find out springs and escaped. the cloud only

on the floats on come. we woke up to screens, they said there was a fire and told us to evacuate. we rushed out from the 2nd floor. the fire was on the 4th floor and above it was already windy and very bad. the hotel is on the edge of the cliff, making it difficult for emergency teams to reach. so with this a say it's fire detection systems failed. authorities say they acted quickly and did everything. they could y'all, i'm going to move the just the old. the 1st report of the fi was received. a 3 27 am and the teams took action as soon as the report was received. the 1st intervention was made by our emergency teams at 4 15 am, and the 6th persecutors have been appointed to lead an investigation. the fire is believed to have started on the same floor as the hotel restaurant for people have been detained in clothing to hotels, owner. the loss of life and this hotel fire is nothing short of tragic. the

families are demanding accountability and investigation has been launched into safety standards. the turkish government has declared a day of national morning while the country waits for answers. so you don't to solo elza 0 car talk a, a bullying or them to key s. m $23.00 rebels in the democratic republic of congo have seized another town in the east. local officials confirmed the capture of minova. the town is a supply route to gamma, which is the capital of north keeping the province more than 230000 people fled to fighting between the government forces and 23. since the start of the columbia and president gustavo petrovich, declared a state of emergency as thousands of people for the violence in the northeast. a comfortable region, a more than 100 people have been killed in the fight between the national liberation army or e l. n. and this it didn't fall gravel since thursday. the conflicts told feet of control to came production. petra suspended peace talk san has accused the
