youngstown is an economically challenged city.allenged since 1977 when we lost 25,000 steel jobs. we're close to, you know, the pittsburgh/west virginia area and the coal industries. the president has talked about trying to bring back the coal industry, talked about trying to bring back the steel industry. and while we certainly appreciate the talk of improving the steel industry in our local area, i don't believe that withdrawing the united states from the paris accords is the appropriate course to take. i believe, you know, right now we're left with, what, nicaragua and syria as the only two countries probably on the planet who are not part of the agreement. and it's part of being a major country on the planet, the u.s. has certain burdens. being a leader on the issue of climate change is one of those, so i'd like to see the president reconsider his decision as soon as possible. >> so you were not the only city that was called out. pittsburgh got a big shout-out yesterday from the president. here's how the mayor of pittsburgh re

lived in ohio near youngstown in the heart of the rust belts. right now i live in kentucky. i seen a lot of these shifts partyrom the democratic close up. that was the genesis. thinking about how we can win in these regions again and get back to governing. people's househe project and the idea for it in apocalypse"ersinged if we're going to change where need to change the kind of candidates we're running, how we're running those campaigns and the issues that we're running on. what i mean by that is, right candidatesof the that we select on our side and obviously i'mo, more expert on my side of the aisle, that's what i focus men critique on. the way we go about selecting candidates we think about who has the greater connections to fundraising circles. who can raise the money. feed back when i was running. rather than think being who has deepest connection with deepesh their community. who can really best speak to the issues that are uniquely faced by that community. first part is changing the types of candidates we're running. i would love for us to see a lot of folks from mo

pittsburgh and youngstown. and said something to the effect of i was elected by the people of pittsburgh, not paris. and this is not -- the best interests of detroit and pittsburgh and youngstown. pittsburgh has revitalized itself as a center of green technology. and as has youngstown as it's tried to reinvent its economy past steel and investing in green technology. while he tried to make this about the economy there are going to be many business leaders and many parts of the business community that are saying really there is a very vibrant business case to be made for staying in this agreement. and of meeting these targets versus trying to pull out and get a better deal. which, you know, maybe you can. maybe you can't. >> eric, i want to ask you about his characterization of the deal. the way he made his argument was essentially that this really imposes very little on some major carbon emitters like china and india. that the u.s. is bearing the brunt of the restrictions and that furthermore on top of the lack

caldeans and muslims were removed from their families and transported to a correction facility in youngstown. i have been in touch with community leaders who are not only distressed by the ongoing situation, but also express concerns of the dangers that await these individuals as they return to an active war zone in iraq. many of the communities characterize these raids as having a deliberate and calculated mowive. -- motive. understand that these deportations are part of an agreement made between the prime minister abaddy and president president di and trump as part of the deal to remove iraq from the travel ban. an agreement that is not in writing, mr. speaker. an agreement that congress nor the public has access to. reared its - isis ugly head in 2014 in northern iraq, to main targets for genocide, sexual slavery, and other gross human rights violations, included these same people, iraqi christians, muslims, and other ethnic and religious minorities. in 2014 congress passed a resolution unanimously recognizing iraq's ethnic and religious minorities and victim of genocide in iraq and syria

as you know very well, when he talks about pittsburgh and youngstown, ohio, he's talking about the rust belt and misidentifying, obviously, where the jobs are. our own ann thompson is pointing out there are so many more jobs in removables right now. there are only 53,000 jobs in the coal industry as of a year ago january. and half a million jobs in solar and other renewable energy sources. so, he's misstating the economic benefits of proceeding with new sources of renewable energy. that said, that's not what people in the rust belt want to hear or expect to hear, and when he diminishes paris and says i'm choosing pittsburgh over paris, that certainly makes paris the enemy and exacerbated our relationship with our allies. it's significant, i think, at least i did not see secretary of state rex tillerson there, it was not on his official schedule and he was one of the advocates if sticking with the paris agreement. one caution, though, is the president did give himself an out saying he's willing to renegotiate it. i'm not sure how practical that is given his attitude and the influence, fr

this is a guy who went around the country like i will bring back your jobs, youngstown and that was assage. i will crack down on trade. he's been reduced to work force development in 145 days. to me this symbolizes the exhaustion. what's the solution to make people's lives better. >> this is a problem if the strategy we heard earlier in the show for 2018 is run on impeachment. vote for democrats so they can impeach donald trump. that's pretty much the same message. it's digging in deeper on the message of fear. vote for me because i'm not him. you know? i don't see how that's going to turn out any better. i think people want to be inspired. sure, the uk is a different system. but turns out people are still worried about wanting good health care. young people are still worried about graduating in massive debt and being inspired by green jobs and getting to 100% renewable energy. it's not a different system. >> it is interesting though. interesting that in georgia now and john is running in this. he's hammering health care. above the russia stuff. even in that context from the feedback

. >>> it is time to put youngstown, ohio, detroit, michigan, and pittsburgh, pennsylvania along withns within our great country before paris france. it is time to make america great again. >> visitors on the oval office say the president gives them his version, a paper version of a map like this whch. when he makes big decisions, he looks at this map. particularly he looks at thchl t. the former blue states he turned red. the climate decision he changed yesterday is risky politically. 90% of democrats think climate change is real. republicans think it's real, 54%. should we stay or go when it comes to the paris climate change deal? millennials, their support for the paris deal is higher, about you it runs across the spectrum. baby boomers, world world ii veterans. why would the president get out? let's look at it from a political perspective. slide this over here. 86% of democrats say stay in the paris accords. but even a narrow majority say stay in. so the president was not doing this because his base was overwhelmingly demanding he get out based on climate change. the president loo

connected viscerally to the white working class of materially decimated places across america outside youngstown, ohio. why? why him to the answer to me is that the man's worldview is formed in 1980s and 1990s new york which is an experience of material declined, place is going to hell and it's done at the hands of some other. it turns out that that story is endlessly exportable across the country. he went to erie county, pennsylvania and mahoning, ohio and kenosha wisconsin and said you're experiencing material declined and will bring you back to greatness and its people both that are causing the decline. in this case, it was the prime villain in the story was immigrants rather than black people. in some ways that are interchangeable. look at what the doj did today is there announcing their new website that will show crimes committed by unauthorized immigrants which is just this, it'll be the official project of the government to publish essentially create in the public mind an association of criminality with unauthorized immigration. that is the project that was carried out over the course of

i met with a number of police officers and court officials and treatment people today, both in youngstown today, in cleveland yesterday, a number of people that have gotten clean from their opioid treatment, addiction and treatment. and they think this is the number-one tool, medicaid is, to fight back against opioid addiction. so, we'll see how that goes, but i think this report today, 15 million people just like that lose their insurance, hundreds of thousands of those in ohio, and that 15 million is a combined population of my state and senator mcconnell's state, kentucky. that's how many people will lose insurance immediately, not to mention the tax breaks to the insurance industry, the people that helped senator mcconnell write the bill. so it's pretty outrageous, it's pretty morally reprehensible what they're doing. >> you're going to run in a state in 2018 that donald trump won. the politics of this couldn't be clearer for you. this is an easy call. your beliefs aside. because of what the bill's going to do. i mean, it's just remarkable to me that anyone thinks there's political up
