it centers the united states or the idea of the united states being a welcomed haven for people who were exiled. unfortunately, the history of the united states tells a somewhat different, more complicated story. alwaysth is, we have not had a humanitarian impulse to welcome refugees. usually we have only done so when it is in our humanitarian national interest. , we are more inclined to actually reject refugees than to accept them. and to brawl the words of -- borroweric king the words of historian eric king, refugees who have been accepted are not only resettled, but are also deeply unsettled by the experience of forced migration. -- migration and resettlement in the united states. to give you an overview of what i will talk about today, i will give you a little background about american refugee resettlement policy after the second war. going to use that background to set up why the 1970's were such an important period of change. the ugandan asian refugees first arrived in united states and they were followed by an even larger group of refugees, southeast asian refugees who are describ

i bring greetings from the 45th president of the united states of america, president donald trump. applause] >> in his inaugural address to the nation, president trump proclaimed that the united states stands in his words at the birth of a new millennium, ready to unlock the mysteries of space. and since day one of our administration, this president has kept his promise to restore america's proud legacy of leadership in space. believing that space is essential to our nation's security, prosperity, and our very way of life. last year, after it had laid dormant for nearly a quarter century, he revived the national space council to reinvigorate and coordinate space activities across. it is my honor to serve as the chairman of the national space council. the president has already signed three new space policy directives to reorient our space program towards human exploration, unleash america's burgeoning commercial space companies and safeguard our vital space assets with new space traffic management policy. but as commander-in-chief, president trump's highest priority is the safety and

but then the united states army araves. increasingly attempting to assert its authority, its sovereignty. the result is a war between the united states and the ogallala lakota that last from 1866 to 1867. as red cloud and other leaders like him face the entire might of the united states army. and at first, the indians are winning. and this should be no surprise to you. this is land that they know, land where they have lived, they're better organized, they're certainly better motivated than the united states army, and thef much better local knowledge, this is very much like the circumstances i've described in the '90s, as the recent recently reorganized by the constitution. as we came into contact to the threat they saw. and the united states suffered a series of initial defeats. bless you. >> thank you. >> you're welcome. only to reorganize, devote new resources, and eventually mobile ides all the authority of the federal government to achieve victory. and that's eventually what happens to red cloud. in the same way that the

the united states space command. this new command structure where the physical domain of space led four star flag officer will establish unified command and ontrol for our space force operations. ensure integration across the ilitary and develop the space war fighting doctrine, tactics, techniques, and procedures of the future. this report ep calls for is the creation of an of joint war fighters specializing in the domain of space who will form the nation's f newest armed service. space operations force. our special operations force, it will draw men and military across the and will grow into their own unique and cohesive community. they'll support the combatant commands by providing spacex per tees in times of crisis and conflict. third, this report calls for the creation of a new joint organization, the space development agency that will women of the and space force have a cutting edge war fighting capability that they need and deserve. while our adversaries have been space, too often to new and pt emerging threats

they're certainly better motivated than the united states army. and they have much better local knowledge. this is very much like the circumstances i described in the 1790s, as the united states recently reorganized by the constitution. came into conflict. with the indians with the eastern woodlands who had recently organized in response to the threat that they saw from the united states. and in that war, the united states suffered a series of initial defeats. bless you, you're welcome. only to organize to devote new resources and eventually mobilize all the authority of the federal government to achieve victory. that's eventually what happens to red cloud. in the same way that the u.s. constitution enabled the united states to defeat the pan-indian movements of the 1780s and ' 0s, the structural changes to government that had gone on during the civil war and to a certain degree during reconstruction enabled the united states to field an army that could defeat red cloud and in 1868 red cloud was one of the indian representative who is signed on to

with regard to military you know the military might in the region etc look it's easy to blame the united states for everything but the reality is the iranian government is not taking care of its people the united states government is not the threat that iran needs to worry about its own people just look at what we're seeing they're out on the streets in iran they're tired of their government they're tired of corruption they're tired of iran sending more money to create mr for around the world to their own than their own people the president of the united states has made it clear that even he loves the iranian people we in america want good relations with the people but it's the government that needs to be held accountable it's the government in iran that needs to be held responsible for its own actions when i say in reality they have been eleven and consecutive reports by the nuclear agency and all of them said that iran was complying so if you are now any other country in the world and if you are north korea for example and you're looking at what is happening why would you even negotiate with

it is my honor to introduce the vice president of the united states. [applause] i think it'snce: all for you. [applause] thank you.pence: mattis, debbie terry -- deputy secretary shanahan, general goldfine, members of the armed forces of the united states of america and all the men and women of the united states department of defense who each and every day oversee the greatest military in the history of the world. thank you for all you do every day. [applause] vice pres. pence: it is my great honor to join you here today at the pentagon. youme begin by bringing greetings from your commander-in-chief who has proved to be a great champion of the armed forces of the united states committed to strengthening security here on earth and in space or it i bring greetings from the 45th president of the united states of america. president donald trump. [applause] in his inaugural address to the nation, president trump proclaimed the united states stands in his words at the birth of a new millennium. ready to unlock the mysteries of space. since day one of our admi

we have an oil reserve in the united states. you can imagine every six months they have turned the server. the problem is the average chinese base 40% of their disposable income for food. in the united states we spend 11%. so slight increases in food prices create instability in china and that is why they did this. the chinese have learned it was better to buy the coal mine. they come by all the pork they want on the commodities market, but they chose to buy this company. not only did they get this company, but they got all of the technology, the genetics, all kinds of very sophisticated technology that this company originally got from the department of agriculture on our tax dollars, which the chinese have it. the real problem is the pork is now coming back into the united state with the smithfield label. and so, you have no idea what you're really eating. we have a lot in the united states called for cool law and there are 18 exemptions. so you go when to paris and you want to buy pork, you look at the package you might say pac

and i think across the world, people are recognising that the united states is behaving in a dangerous the dollar, using financial institutions as weapons, and this is something we're now seeing being used against turkey and that's going to continually isolate the united states. of course, the united states is still a very important power, but what i'm saying is the world is changing as well. iran will not be able to change its foreign policy because iran's policy in syria and iran is what prevented isis from coming into iran. not only did iran stop the extremists that western governments helped create with the saudis, look at the intelligence agency document of 2012. the most important military intelligence organisation in the world, the pentagon, stated from early on in syria the dominant militant forces were the extremists and they would create a salafist entity between syria and iraq. and the regional regimes that were allied to the united states were supporting this. and then general flynn later on in an interview admitted... he was the head of that organisation, he admitted the u

has had a hand in in terms of the united states involvement south of the border. but these kinds of actions that the united states have been involved in have been relatively invisible to many americans. therefore, i think many americans don't feel they do have any obligation to these particular immigrants. so, therefore, it's aerzieasier behave towards them in an inhumane fashion. >> let's go back to these children. the united states says it's trying to place many of them with family members if there are people who are known to the children if possible, or else they go into some sort of state control, so to speak. but all obligations end once these kids are put in sponsored units. what happened to you, just the emotion of being separated from your family or being put in a sponsored family who treated you well, but nonetheless it was not your family? >> now i'm the father of a 4-year-old. i was 4 years old when i was separated from my parents. so i can see through him what had happened to me. i certainly remember at 4 years old this was a traumatic experience. when

it was certainly beneficial for the united states. at's why i regret that over the last year or so there have been attacks on that system, but still the system of globalization shouldn't be described as international socialism. quite the opposite. it's the spread of capitalist institution to much of the world. china into integrating itself into the economic system discarded some elements of its socialist economy. it still is a communist dictatorship but it has increasingly taken on elements of capitalism. so it's the opposite, i think, of what you were describing. >> elizabeth cobbs? >> i would respectfully disagree with that too, although i absolutely empathize with this worry, this concern that for decades upon decades, your whole life american soldiers having dying in various places. the interesting thing about that is that number has declined, so as bad as it is, that 24-hour news cycle which keeps reminding us of the terrible things that are happening tends to overlook that longer-term trend, and that trend has been made positive

the united states has never ever supported the p.k. k. when the when isis invaded syria it attacked the kurds the kurds did not attack isis and when the kurds asked for help turkey declined the us agreed to help and now isis has been largely defeated secondly this is actually about the relationship for years turkey has used the most abusive language about the united states and about its about its leaders president obama was accused of direct knowledge of the attempted coup in two thousand and sixteen the government in turkey has used the most abusive language against the united states and i think it's the united states that deserves a little respect here this is a bounded problem it can be solved it doesn't need to escalate beyond this and turkey and the united states have a lot of common interest in that region they could cooperate on if we can move past this point and a lot of that the fans upon the turkish willingness to put its economic common sense and its political flexibility ahead of nationalism. it does feel though. if you look a

it centers the united states or the idea of the united states being a welcoming haven for people who are exiles. unfortunately, the history of the united states tells a somewhat different, more complicated story. the truth is, we have not always had the humanitarian impulse to welcome refugees. usually, we have only done so when it is in our humanitarian national interest. usually, we have been more inclined to reject refugees. to borrow the words of historian eric tang, often refugees who have been accepted for resettlement are not only resettled, there also deeply unsettled by the experience. to give you an overview, i will give you a little background about american refugee resettlement policy after the second world war. i'm going to use that background to set up why the 1970's were such an important. of change. that is when a small group of ugandan refugees arrived in the united states and they were followed by a larger group of refugees, southeast asian refugees, who are described as indochinese refugees, including those from vietnam, laos, cambodia. i will talk about the crisis

going to also the united states would like to. decision but we can continue to schools energy but as the austrian president from the villains said great. is that ellen g.'s only a moment and the prices are high but actually because you negotiate a long term contract with russia to receive gas you get the gas well below the price which is why also you have this water but it's almost impossible to have it to contradiction in order to make what you have to create a high revenue stream which makes for a stronger signal for you to burst but if you try to which you also have relations with that run poorly run do you push your prices or should the position of the countries that you are well start to suspicious of strong and also you make their boutique. to customs. more attractive so it actually is not a very clear since you do not get. to. get in or tell me go back to change gears and i talk a little bit about nato you know ever since the end of the in the advent of the cold war in the warsaw pact we've had nato when the soviet union cam

one is the united states is somewhat but not very trade exposed. we are the largest as consumption economy in the world. we consume a lot and so these tariffs may again impact some businesses when you look at the macropicture. it's very good and in the four months of the tariffs have been in effect manufacturing growth has outpaced job growth and the rest of the tour. i would just say and i'm not picking on any of you in this room but if i read articles about the apocalyptic trade war you wouldn't find that happening. if you go out to industrial farms in america they are still making their product and they are still selling it. where my going to get my next generation of innovation in how am i going to move-up? tariffs are a tiny part of most of their concerns. soybean prices are going up. someone is going to buy their beans ultimately. our overall economy there is a lot of strength behind it. we are not there yet and that's going to sustain a lot of growth through all of this. there has never been a better time to wage a trade war. this is tongue-i

it would be clear to the whole world where the united states stood and that was alongside and wedded to britain. if the president's plan was approved and funded by congress, the united states would become the unquestioned leader of the democratic forces in the war that was taking place between two world, the criminal world of the nazi gangsters and the enlightenment world of john locke, edmund burke, george washington, james madison, thomas jefferson and alexander hamilton. fdr returned to washington on december 16th. in the next day, he held one of his most memorable press conferences. as usual, he began by casually saying that he didn't have any particular news. and then he said there was one small item he could mention. he told the reporters that it was becoming all too clear that the u.s. needed to do everything it could to help the british empire defend itself and that meant supplying britain with more material. one reporter asked about payment and then fdr gave his famous reply, now when i'm trying to do is eliminate the dollar sign, the silly old foolish dollar sign. here's an

was exhausted also the united states would like to weaken russia. physicians by weakening the state by cutting its own schools or energy but as the wall street resident from development said the great problem is that only you can only be volatile and the prices so high that actually because you go long term contracts with russia to receive you get the gas well below the price which is one of them so you have this. it's almost impossible to have a two contradiction in order to make what you have to create a new streak russia which makes russia stronger. but if you try to which also relations with iran get out of the room do you push your prices or shoot the position of the countries that you are well sold to a special strong and well so you make their booty. to customs. more attractive so it actually is not a very clear since you can not go. to. look in or tell me go back to change gears and i talk a little bit about nato you know ever since the end although the advent of the cold war in the warsaw pact we have had nato when the soviet union came to a

the rest of europe the united states and interestingly and importantly russia here and germany is very much in the center of it with the north stream pipeline the second one that's going to be being built and the americans are pretty perfuse slee against this pipeline because they want to import or export to europe very expensive ellen g. and the germans are recent resisting it and they could face sanctions as we talk announcements could be made this is a very important issue because germany and the european union are actually defacto being denied the ability to determine their energy security it's the u.s. wants to dictate that go ahead michael. well it has to do with russian dominance of it and that's the problem and the u.s. as you point out is a johnny come lately to this new in wanting to ship l.n.g. or liquefied natural gas but the problem for the united states is it only has one port in louisiana that can export and secondly most of the european countries except those along the coast have any elegy capabilities the countries that really really need this kind of gas there are muc

and land in the united states. landing rights are governed by open skies agreements between united dates and the european union. it is not with the -- u.k.. unless we work something out, no planes can land in the united states under the open skies agreement. we clear trillions and trillions of dollars of financial transactions between united states and london, york and london under swift electronic systems. that is a treaty between united states and the eu. in the absence of being a member of the eu, all those treaties cease to apply to the u.k. absolute chaos if we can't figure out -- everybody cannot figure out some way to deal with it. what happened so far? there are four basic elements of how the brexit process is supposed to go. you are supposed to have a withdrawal agreement that is arranging for the divorce between the u.k. and eu, how much money does the u.k. have to continue to pay into the eu? the eu's view is you voted on all of these eu long projects. you can't come into the bar and walk out the door bef

here in the united states, we were at our peak of apartheid. the only difference with south africa and the united states is mandela was assassinated. there was someone who said the united states has an amnesia in the way we do history. was america's -- >> let me take issue with that. the united states has been a deeply racist society, not only with a lengthy history but also racial segregation and institutionalized racism. i think lyndon johnson decided not to run for reelection. he deserves immense credit for his role in getting past the civil rights legislation of 1964 and 1965. i would agree, until that time, the united states had kind of an apartheid system. it came to an end at that point. i think you should not underestimate the role that johnson played. there may have been no other president but could have done that. he had the credibility as a southerner and a hugely positive relationship with the key figures in the u.s. >> i agree the height of segregation was terrible. the critical difference between the u.s. and south africa is the un

to the united states. to france to italy. during our travels we stablish to this unprecedented amount that regarding the transfers of priests involved in cases of that ophelia. deck a man sits in dig. that up with his off by a few that must give on that it was the one that got into a bang up stakes i mean that and the victims number tens of thousands marked with scars for the rest of their lives. our investigations would lead us all the way to pope francis who revealed how when he was charged. issue one a series he tried to influence the argentine justice department. to sunday the. list was these and these and he kept the gas. investigated the mysteries of the church where on the altar of truth god's law seems to prevail over that of a myth. our inquiry into the international transfers of priests accused of pedophilia begins in the united states. where in chicago in the shadow of this cathedral two would disappear a unique kind of protest. or it's you know it's not all are victims of pedophile priests. in their hands portraits

different ways of doing business yes and i think that that's actually one of the ways in which the united states will suffer because russia is being increasingly sanctioned from the chinese see that iran and russia are being targeted and they know that when the united states uses the dollar as a weapon when they use financial institutions as a weapon them they'll be they could possibly be next india is deeply concerned because they know that after china india is the country the country that's rising in asia and the americans are saying you know supremacy trump is a supremacy as he wants to be at the top so and when he also imposes tariffs on india it that has an effect latin america in turkey for also i think americans are pushing turkey towards asia towards iran and therefore your this common cause is being this this sense of a common cause is being strengthened among countries people countries like iran turkey russia china potentially india and others are increasingly going to become wary about the u.s. dollar about financial institutions controlled by the west and they'll be looking for alter

and hard in november because they're not going to respect the sanctions imposed upon them by the united states visa v iran go ahead alex. yeah i think i think that the united states and the you are going to be very surprised to see a very strong air go on a very determined and they want to not buckle and what we saw in turkey last week and we discussed this peter what we saw in turkey was a turkey that is exploring its options we saw there going to the brics meeting we saw russia in all the brics members very happy to have turkey on board and we're seeing turkey now even examining even examining it considering its nato membership and this is huge is the geo political earthquake to see turkey it's like greggs it shifted it's like my friends it it's a it's a brags that here it is flirting right now it's the in the bazaar right now because i don't see them leaving nato any time soon but it's planting the seed we have options we have friends that's already been excluded from the united states weapons program i mean it's syria and all of that rhetoric between turkey and the you of was all full in t

allowed to sell its oil to anyone and anyone who tries to buy iranian oil will be sanctioned by the united states and this is ridiculous i mean this this is unprecedented in terms of of foreign policy and in terms of interaction between sovereign states the united states is creating a mandate which is based on nothing because the iranians are in compliance with the nuclear agreement that they signed which the united states also signed another saying essentially we've decided that they're not in compliance without providing any evidence and they're essentially going to say to other countries you cannot have business dealings with iran this is ridiculous and yet and what how far does that end up going because you know it's a lot of burden of proof you know united states our judicial system you know i go around the world and people tell me like how important it is that we have this burden of proof and that innocent before proven guilty and how what a bedrock of our democracy that is seen from immigrants around the world and yet in this case you know with either the north korea sanctions or the sanct

and if the united states really wants to s stop the exodus from latin america to the united states, ift really wants sears relationship based on friendship, it has to begin by .hanging its own drug policy the anti-drug policy of the united states government is bound by its highest expression in military struggle and repression that is direcected agaiainst d drug users and agait those who produce the coca leaf. this is now making all of latin america bleed. it is leading to the violent deaths of latin american socieiy . at the same time, , it is leadig toto the deaths through overdose by not mitigating damages by more scientific-based u.s. society itself. i would invite the ambassador of the united states to the u.n. now that she is coming to bogota, to re-examine with scientists and objectively a drug policy that has b been profoundly c criminal and ineffective throughout the americicas. amy:y: gustavo petro, you said your own life is threatened. have you received death threats? >> yes. the last one i received was two weeks ago. pamphlet circulating against the main opposition leaders

we were at our peak of apartheid withhe only difference south africa and the united statesas our mandela was assassinated. said thatsomeone who amnesia andtates of the way in which we do history, period washat hmerica's is enough -- zenitc into its apartheid. guest: the united states has been a deeply racist society, not only with a lengthy history with slavery but with 100 years with racial segregation and institutionalized racism in the united states. johnson, who in 1968 decided not to run for reelection, he deserves immense credit for his instrumental role in getting past the civil rights legislation of 1964 and 1965, which i would largely agree with you, until that time, you could argue that the united states had a kind of apartheid system. but came to an end at least legally at that point. there continued to be problems with racism and continued to be thatis day, but i think you shouldn't underestimate the crucial role that lyndon johnson played. there might have been no other president who could have done that, because the other credibility as a southerner and he had

say the united states and say you that same you can manufacture and you do tens of billions of dollars worth of business in the u.s. well that business could potentially be penalized we haven't seen the e.u. blocking start to it ever fully interacted we don't know how it's going to be received but certainly potentially illegal headache for some people far smarter than myself right now to be going through that however in response to this news from the european union there's been a warm reception from tehran today the entire world has shown it disagrees with the u.s. policies against iran talk to anyone anywhere in the world and they will tell you that netanyahu trump and been some manner isolated not iran well the u.s. secretary of state might pompei i disagree strongly with that he says that the sanctions and needed against iran to bring them back to what he calls the table of normal nations they've got to behave like a normal country that's the ask is pretty simple we think that most other countries everyone with whom i spoke who understand that they need to behave normally and they u

states. and this is the second bank of the united states because, as you recall, from earlier in the semester, there was a first bank of the united states. 1791, alexander hamilton pushes through congress a bank of the united states. this bank, a private bank with stockholders and dividends. this bank, hamilton says, will benefit not only financial -- private financial interests but will benefit the country, the public. how will it benefit the public? because the treasury, the u.s. treasury, will deposit money in the bank, money coming in from taxes and the treasury can also borrow money from the bank. this bank has a 20-year charter but it has lots of opponents. you remember that chief opponent, thomas jefferson, hates the bank. the bank, jefferson believes, is an institution that imperils american liberty by elevating to power a nonproductive elite. jefferson comes to power in 1800. so does his authority. that first bank, the charter expires in 1811, but one year later a war erupts with britain. that war is a very expensive war. the national government finds itself in tremendous fiscal stra

an asylum claim within the united states. ple in the second category, those that are within the united states going to the refugee determination processes there, they are at risk. and the reason is for the policies you've made. for example, those that will be denied on the spot simba because their claim is situated within gang violence -- simply -- or it is revolving around a gender-based persecution. so for those people they will not be provided the same kind of protection that it would be expected to be provided here in canada i can give you very real example. there's woman and her sexual old daughter who fled guatemala to escape her abusive husband. on arrival in u.s., they were separated, primly prosecuted for illegal entry. her daughter was taken to a facility for unaccompanied minors. after five months in detention, she was deported back to guatemala where she is hiding from her abuser, and her daughter has since been released a family member in the united states and is pursuing her refugee claim alone. i think this exam

is a very lopsided power equation but mexico canada and the united states gives the other smaller countries more leverage against the industrial colossus of the united states the congress including members of trump's own republican party also very much want to get canada on board in that could create trouble big for a revised pact and in fact there could be some lawsuits as well so so can it is key here. rob reynolds live in washington d.c. for us thank you very much now that deal comes on the day that president trump how talks with his kenyan counterpart who are kenyatta the white house it's the second time trump has met a leader from sub-saharan africa since taking office after nigerian president mohamed do book visit in april of the leaders discuss trade and investment as well as strengthening security cooperation. u.n. investigators say he admires top military generals should be investigated and prosecuted for genocide against their were hidden general state and the report describes the targeted killing of thousands of her head as the disintegration of a community mohammed jam

the district of alabama. holly teeter of kansas to be united states district judge for the district of kansas. mary ellen norake of delaware to be united states district judge for the district of delaware. jill otake of hawaii to be united states district judge for the district of hawaii. mr. gardner: i ask unanimous consent the senate vote on the nominations en bloc with no intervening action or debate, that the motion to reconsider be considered made and laid on the table, the president be immediately notified of the senate's action, that no further motions be in order and that any statements relating to the nominations be printed in the record. the presiding officer: is there objection? without objection. the question is on nominations en bloc. all those in favor say aye. all those opposed, no. the ayes appear to have it. the ayes do have it. the nominations are confirmed en bloc. mr. gardner: i ask unanimous consent that the senate proceed to the consideration of the following nomination -- executive calendar 697. the presiding officer: without objection. the clerk will report. the clerk: n

in the future, if that rises, those challenges for the united states. so there are significantly different answers. the title of this session is in selecting it. the interests are diverting. -- diverging. i think it is difficult and the united states has to choose. among various competitors in washington. of course it has a point of departure within the united states and with the republic as korea. if one's orientation is dealmaking, the temptation to choose among a number of increasingly, rivals of one another and each of whom have something to offer. it is tempting. to address the question more directly, i think that structural problem is serious. we could be moving -- we can see the shadows of offshore balancing. where the united states simply picks and chooses. the options it has it looks that most attractive prospects. that in a certain sense could be the art of the deal. that said, as i say, we do not have the context of an alliance. we have a good personal relationship between prime minister shinzo abe and president trump. i have been looking at t

the day after the united states reimposed nuclear sanctions against iran the foreign minister of another sanctioned country sat down with leaders into iran. north korea's foreign minister really young ho met iranian leaders in an effort to improve ties the timing of this visit is likely no coincidence iran wants america to know it has friends everywhere in a televised interview on monday night iran's president admonished america praised his european allies and asked his people for a little more time to fix the country's economy and that of the state of the unit to have him stand and we need more solidarity we should be more united i'm telling my dear people god willing with your help we will get through this problem he mentioned china and russia several times a signal that iran intends to continue its pivot toward strategic economic partners to cope with yet more american economic pressure. and with the latest comments by the european foreign policy chief perhaps there is a reason for iranians to be optimistic. we in the european union. they don't. very much up to date. with this this is

why i think from the very beginning the united states has been targeting ordinary iranians the united states is has very good relations with israel which we is now really officially an apartheid regime with the new laws it has very good relations with saudi arabia that exports extremism.

he argues against the united states giving favorable terms to capital investments outside of the unitedstates. he is trying to figure out mechanisms by which money has to be maintained within the united states. when dwight eisenhower decides that he is going to run for the presidency, eisenhower explicitly -- the economic messages. that taft has laid out. he explicitly says the united states will have to enable a global economy that will show prosperity for countries around the world of where going to create a secure, stable environment for the united states as people. and the peoples around the world. taft is infuriated by this speech. and explicitly goes out in front of newspaper reporters and says, he is putting foreigners ahead of americans. he does not use the phrase america first but is implicit, and saying that. of time. now, most republicans are divided over this issue. and as the cold war heats up, by 1940s evan, big votes have to come into play were senators and members of the house have to explicitly vote on support for the new internationalism that is both run the ideal of t

know if you heard this but chancellor merkel said the other day you're of can no longer rely on the united states in order to protect itself and i would argue that the more pressing. question right now is whether you're of can really take it for granted that the united states will not lash out at europe economically do you think this rad of secondary sanctions is real do you think. the united states could convict full force against european countries if they decide to continue trading with iran provided of course if iran is in compliance with the. so the threat of secondary sanctions is very rule real basically this idea that you know if you're a non us company you've got to choose do you want to do business with iran or do you want to do business with the united states and for most companies that's going to be an easy choice and for most companies the threat is sufficient the u.s. doesn't really have to do much in force meant in order to get a lot of big companies to say you know what this isn't worth the risk but european governments do have tools available to them to seek to counter the second

the war. they reshape the state department it coincided with a appreciation of the threat that western europe and the united states faced. how to rebuild the economies of western europe and head off the threat posed by indigenous communist parties. rebuild germany, the engine potentially of prosperity. the u.s. military governor noted that there is no choice to being a communist on 1500 calories a day and a believer in democracy on just 1000. clay's famous report on germany repudiated once and for all dependents of the morgantown parent -- the plan and laid the ground for what marshall would put together for the marshall plan. they focus more on economic growth as the fundamental aces for democracy. a much clearer and more constructive u.s. policy emerged in 1947. secretary marshall, two considerations were paramount. firstly, as a breaded kernel at the end of world war i, he had seen the united states with draw after that conflict. inadvertently helping turn marshall's prediction into reality. marshall looked on in display and after world war i the u.s. army was drawn down and marshall's constant refrain t

did leader of iran was overthrown in in the nineteenth fifty's by britain and the united states and the shah was in a store that was when the pillar was reinforced but the pillar collapsed in one nine hundred seventy nine with the revolution in iran and that has never been forgiven getting a rom the major ambition of the above and that's why we're coming to a very dangerous period when trump mosse ratify the agreement the a bomb assigned. with iran along with. the e.u. under which iran committed to its self as a frankly always had committed itself to a peaceful nuclear program in return sanctions were dropped and so on we have dangers you know the danger is that a presented to us that is so unnecessary why why are we why we threatening countries like iran which hasn't invaded anyone or about four hundred year is the don't threaten us why is anachronism like israel allowed to have it seemed punitive. why do we why do we believe these why do as you describe why do we journalists write down what governments tell us why don't they question them. it's just a few years ago exactly or was thos

rubio: madam president, this -- we are now halfway through my eighth year in the united states senate and in my time year, i have never once spoken against, voted against, or opposed in any way any of the national defense authorization acts that have come before the senate. and the reason being that despite whatever flaws one might find on most owequations in any -- occasions in any piece of legislation, the defense of our country is the fundamentallologies of our federal government. -- fundamental obligation of our federal government. it comes before anything else. state governments run schools and build roads and do all sorts of activities at the state level. communities do all sorts of things at the local level. but nothing is more important than the defense of our country in terms of a federal obligation. and so i had never opposed an ndaa, and i have supported every single one of them, despite the fact that they didn't have everything i wanted or everything i liked -- until today. there is a lot of good in this legislation, and it makes it difficult to be an opponent of it. for f

the war was also great for the news business in the united states. evening papers could take advantage of the six-hour time difference and have that day's war news ready for readers when they left work, get in the streetcars, and went home. -- newsboysotograph in obama city. in -- newsboys in oklahoma city. this is "the saturday evening post" advertising the sachsen automobile. if you look really closely, you might think that is the white house. if you look even more closely, that could be president woodrow wilson driving the car, driving the automobile in a stately fashion toward a brighter and more prosperous future. the other thing i find erotic -- about ironic is talk sachsen supremacy, referring to the automobile. but of course, wilson was also a believer in anglo-saxon supremacy. he introduced jim crow into the government. this gets at what i wanted to talk about it today in terms of who's democracy is it. propelled african-americans for the first time, in a big way, out of the south. this was the beginning of the big migration. there was all th

and the regional regimes that were allied to the united states we re were allied to the united states then general flynn later on in an interview admitted he was the head of the organisation and he admitted the united states took a wilful decision to help its regional allies do this. what was the group that later made a regime between syria and iraq? it was isis. the united states helped the extremists. how can you stand back and allow syria or damascus have the black flags rise of them? you may make that point, i'm more interested in what this means for iran. there's no question, it's quite obvious that iran's strategic commitment to the support of the assad government and its own military presence in syria is long—term but it is also extremely expensive, one of the most respected experts on middle east politics and diplomacy, nadeem jihadi, he reckons that it could have already cost iran up to 100 billion us dollars. all of its military and political commitment to the assad government since the war started. add to that the billion dollars or so every year that tehran spends on hezbo

richard nixon had been the president to make the policy of the united states. before watergate, this is what many americans know about his presidency. they believed that he was trying to rebuild the strength of the united states overseas that had been weakened as a result of the terminal of the 60s. to secure u.s. influence in the post 1960 her, nixon had been convinced that he would need to make a series of dramatic moves like bringing the war in vietnam to a total and and sawing relations with the soviet union in china. because of his strong political standing with conservatives, nixon believed he could do this, that he could open up relationships with the communist without suffering politically here at home. the individual who missed eloquently -- most eloquently articulated the concept was his national security adviser, henry kissinger. the first component involved a series of high-level arms agreements with the soviet union that produced the agreement. on may 26, 1972. this was a deal with the soviet union that was negotiated with the later who had been a p

it had nothing to do with china, just to hurt the united states. they have been conducting espionage for years. they're just look a lot like our jets in our military. and now they are just outright buying our technology. the don't have to steal it so much anymore, especially if you have smaller companies with critical breakthroughs in artificial intelligence or quantum computing. this legislation allows us to recognize those threats for what they are and stop china from buying our most critical technology, that we need to maintain is the worlds latest superpower. i thank all my peers around the ande and secretary mnuchin everyone on the committee on foreign investment, to take a very tough look at everything china is doing to the united states. president trump: we put it 50 -- 850 billion dollar number out there, the total is $250 million. and there's a 25% tax on that now, coming in. that economically also helps us. this is very different, but it also helps us. people say it is ours having a big effect. we are collecting that money. it is a lot of

china knows exactly where it's trying to put the most of acute pressure on the united states. because of the trade imbalance china and the united states cannot go tit for tat dollar for dollar. because of the negotiations happening between mexico and the united states, i believe they are look at cars and auto parts as a way to try and really utilize this opportunity in time as a point of leverage. we'll see what happens with the mexico-united states negotiations. this isn't just nafta. it's just mexico and the united states. we'll see if an agreement can emerge this week. adam: let me ask you, is the administration, if we were to do the bilateral deal and not do something with canada, are we picking winners and losers. i have good friends who produce steel in ohio that's used by toyota in kentucky. are we picking beginners and losers -- picking winners and losers if we leave out canada? >> this is fulfilling a campaign promise when it comes to manufacturing jobs. with mexico paying their workers $3 an hour to build auto parts, we are saying we have to have an agreement where th

it is not simply the united states, nato. it is the civilized world that has not quite figured out how to balance the protection of our freedoms, the openness we treasure, and at the same time, keep out those who choose to exploit us. host: from rhode island, republican line, jack. caller: good morning, sir. concerningg u.s.-nato relations. they have improved. nato is putting more money into the kitty. by ancestry german nation. they have not put in more. they really played the united states well. if you look at the german economy, it is strong. normally, it is strong all the time. is in aan economy surplus. they should be putting in more money, along with some of the other countries to carry the load. the lady is right concerning china. our number one should she get adversary -- one strategic adversary. they are to replace the united states as the number one power in the world. host: gotcha. mr. singh? guest: i do not have much to disagree with you, jack. i would think germany should and could spend more on defense. defense s
