mr. larry smith. this year mr. smith won the national tree contest hosted by the national christmas tree association whose members have presented the official white house christmas tree for display in the blue room since 1966. growers must first win their local competitions in order to qualify for the association's national contest. at the national competition, growers, industry experts, and consumers vote to choose the real christmas tree grower who will provide the official white house christmas tree. i am proud to represent this year's winner and was delighted to join mr. smith, his family and friends, in presenting the first family with its frazier fir christmas tree last week. as a former christmas tree grower myself, i i can attest to the importance of recognizing this often overlooked yet highly significant farming industry. christmas trees have held a historic place in american family tradition since 1850. long before artificial trees were around, real trees brought christmas spirit into homes with their eve

what that represents for mr duncan smith —— foer what that represents for mr duncan smith —— for mr o. for other conservative mps, thatis into. for other conservative mps, that is not the case. how can they be misunderstanding, if they are, this concept that is now written clearly? i think because the withdrawal agreement, a legal treaty, and there is the potential buried that it could last a very long time, the backstop. because both sides have to agree for it to come to an end. if this single customs territory, a temporary customs territory, a temporary customs union, isn't lamented. and neither side can withdraw from it unilaterally. but an important point is that it is notjust the uk that doesn't like the backstop, the eu really doesn't either. for three reasons, one, it would mean them some contracting control of their borders around northern ireland to a third country, the knighted kingdom. —— sub contracting. they still think the uk could somehow get some kind of competitive advantage by being half in and half out. thirdly, most importantly, for their future trade relations wi

have you been twisting some arms, mr smith?hief whip will only have that chance if, and it is and if, if his boss can persuade some of his collea g u es boss can persuade some of his colleagues around the top table to actually agree. earlier, our europe editor katya adler gave the perspective from brussels on today's step forward. those in the know here in brussels are keeping rather tightlipped. one of my high—level contacts sent me an emoji with a closed zip instead of a mouth. what do we actually know at this point? we know there's what's being called a mutual understanding. there's this draft outline brexit deal agreed between eu and uk negotiators, but that is not a final deal. it's a technical one rather than past by politicians so tomorrow brussels will be looking very closely at the cabinet decision and if there's a rejection there then it's back to the drawing board. but don't forget, hugh, the governments of the 27 eu countries and the uk parliament will want to pour over the words of this 700 page document of the dra

and the very pro european stance of the current chancellor, mr. smith, mr. cole on the basis of that we have been able to do things which were unthinkable perhaps. a lot has been achieved. i'm 46 years old so i know what i'm talking about. i'm one of the first generation on this continent that has been able to live in peace and freedom. you belong to a generation that was also able to live in peace, but for a considerable length of your time, you were locked in behind the iron current. my grandfather was part of the war generation. so the unthinkable has actually managed to be achieved thanks to the contribution. i would like to sent out heartfelt thanks to the chancellor on behalf of germany. so we're thinking in whatever has to be done today. thank you very much for stressing the fact that being proeuropean perceives the problems you're having and if you look at the that in germany, you explained what the internal market means and you demanded solidarity with other countries. then when it comes to the situation in ukraine, which russia changed the borders

enators cindy hyde-smith and mr. espy. sen. hyde-smith: thank you so much for staying tuned tonight and watching this debate. next week, two big important events coming up. we will have the president of the united states to come to mississippi to campaign on my behalf. we will start off in tupelo at 5:00 on the monday before the election. we will end up on the mississippi gulf coast at :00. you can go to donaldjtrump.com and get those tickets. tonight, you have heard two clearly different opposite differences between me and my opponent. we had talked about the issues that this country is facing and the things that you are involved in. throughout this campaign, i have always said this is not about me, it is about you, then mississippians. it is about the things you care for, the things you believe in like lower taxes, less government, less regulation. supporting our military and our veterans. it is about protecting our unborn children. it is about abortion. it is the things i will stand up for an fight against. my opponent has al

mr. ian duncan smith. >> mr. speaker, can i say that i've always wished well to my right honorable friend. and my question is in this light. i have deep, deep misgivings on reading much of this overnight. that there is a real issue with the way that we will be treated in -- with the back stop. and i say to her that when you read this, you realize that we are locking ourselves in to an arrangement from which we seem unable therefore to have the sovereign right to withdraw. that seems to me to be the biggest single issue here, which strips away the one thing that we said when we wanted to vote for leaving, was that we took back control. so can i say to my right honorable friend, my concern is that we have the sovereign right when we want to leave the u.n. we have the sovereign right when we want to leave nato. we have even the sovereign right when we want to leave the e.u. but we do not have the sovereign right to leave this arrangement. >> prime minister. prime minister may: my right honorable friend, he says that

will there be more resignations, mr smith?the uk. will there be more resignations, mr smith? it is a difficult policy decision, it is not surprising that some people find this decision very tough, but the prime minister will not be bullied and will not change course, and the government and the cabinet have made a definite decision to back and we look forward to the november council. julian smith. the lib dem mp tom brake joins council. julian smith. the lib dem mp tom brakejoins me now. the message, she will love this out. well, she can, she can try to do that. try to bring forward motion, although, i must tell you, from the reaction in parliament today, there is no chance that will go through. if the prime minister is then threatened with legal deal, i think she will find the majority are opposed to that. what did the designation of dominic raab do? did it dramatically change things? it triggered a number of other resignations, both at senior level and dudley junior level. i resignations, both at senior level and dudleyjunior

smith. that race has been relatively sane this will this week when the senator was caught on video expressing some contentious views, not once, but twice. [ inaudible ] >> when crickets pushed mrs smith to walk back her comments about a public hanging, she released a statement saying, quote, any attempt to turn this into a negative connotation is ridiculous, end quote. in just a few days later, another video of hyde smith surfaced. [ inaudible ] >> shortly after the video was posted to twitter, her spokesperson said the senator was, quote, obviously making a joke and clearly the video was selectively edited, end quote. now, ms. hyde smith, you may think it's okay to joke about public and hanging voter suppression, but you know who wouldn't find these jokes funny, the 37% of african-americans in your state, some of whom have family members who were terrorized for fighting to gain the right to vote, some of whom have family members who were beaten, hung, and then dragged through manipulate streets, their mutilated bodies serving as a warning to other african-americans. so forgive me if i can't find the obvious humor in your trifling statements. we're not all blessed with the priv

mrs. hyde-smith, that senator hyde-smith was just accidentally dog whistling those comments, but it doesn't feel like it. it feels like she's hugging president trump very close. democrats have a real shot here, and i don't think that that point can be missed. look at what happened with roy moore in neighboring alabama. another historically republican conservative state where democrats won, and they won because you had a flawed candidate who, by the way, wasn't the first choice of many voters. same situation here with cindy hyde-smith. she struggled to get the republican base behind her in the first round, and you've got a really strong democratic candidate who appeals to voters across a wide variety of backgrounds. i think democrats have a real shot here, and i think democrats need to be all in over the next four days. >> these are two states that share a border, of course, and you look at what the celerities are. one of them is that joe trip pi, the democratic strategist who worked within that alabama race is also working for mike espy in this race in mississippi as well. how good is the p

mrs. eisenhower a beaver coat. it created a big political controversy, first of all for her accepting something free, then the senator from maine, a republican, margaret j. smith was angry that the fur trappers, you know, did not go through her. although when they first approached her she said she wouldn't approach mrs. eisenhower. anyway, mrs. eisenhower accepted it and sure enough there was a boon in the maine fur trappers. they were reporting record sales themselves. mrs. eisenhower wore these little straw hats. she was famous for her hats. to the point where that those became so popular that -- and the straw was imported from ecuador. it is reported by the curator of the eisenhower library that practically it saved the ecuadorian economy. this is just an overview of the topic. obviously i've left a lot out. there were a lot more detailed political controversies. you can read all about it in the book that we've put out to accompany the exhibit. and i'm eager to take any questions any of you may have. >> thank you, carl.
