military exercises in this particular strait the baris strait i think it's called a very close to thehilippines and how alarmed should should taiwan be. well to be clear i think these military drills are not unusual for the chinese side in a time when the site have been at it for years are conducting their annual military exercises to put their florindo or our military invasion scenarios so nothing unusual about that i would say that the reason what is shoot really are the sticks and i think with the last twelve months or so we have seen. on all sides the chinese side is timely side and us site. taking a different posture altogether sort of the chinese cutes i think of what's unsettling is the speech the presidency to being made in general this year making it very explicit. the unification of taiwan are peaceful means or by force is something not to be put off and you more it can it cannot be put off for another generation and he decreed that his military would have to take on battles if need be in order to unify all sides of the streets for a time when he cycles will come rather bell

i heard what martha said about about whether there's a divide between mueller and bari i think for a large part of investigation that may be the case. i read as very interesting the discussion in the special counsel's report about what the legal standards are for obstruction of justice. it seems to me to be a direct response, almost, to the barr memorandum that we learned about during attorney general bar's confirmation hearing. barr took the position that, while a president can be cited for obstruction based on traditional corrupt actions that involve tampering with witnesses, suborning perjury, tampering with evidence, and the like, but he was rejecting the extravagant idea that if a president was using his article to powers but a prosecutor found that he was corruptly motivated, that was actionable obstruction. if you read the mueller report and the section on the law of obstruction, they emphatically take the position that if a president has corrupt intent when exercising his legitimate constitutional authority, that congress can reach that and has tried to reach that with the ob
