now, most american. came into the nations possession by wars or purchases the revolutionary war, as you see here on this slide, produced most the territory east of the mississippi river. the louisiana purchase in 1803 brought most of the lands between the mississippi river and rocky mountains into the nation and then war with mexico. in 1846 to 1848. in incorporated american southwest and then in 1867 the united states purchased alaska from russia. and so see, with each of those territorial acquisitions, they are functions of war and or purchase. the terra that that becomes the pacific northwest however was appended to the nation in a somewhat unusual faction not war or not purchase rather the pacific northwest, the oregon country went through a phase which the two primary claimants to the region that's the united states and great britain agreed to share it for an indefinite time. this is the so-called joint occupation i referred to earlier the the convention of 1818 was an agreement between great britai

the american liberal felt and remedying our ill. what? i do not believe that in 1972, the great majority of americans will continue to harbor such narrow and petty prejudices. i am convinced that the american people are in a mood to discard the polished facts and the political personalities of the past. i believe that they will show in 1972 and thereafter that they intend to make independent judgments on the merits of a particular candidate based on that candidate's intelligence, character, physical ability, competence, and integrity and honesty. it is. just a i feel the duty of responsible leaders in this country to encourage and maximize, not to dismiss or minimize such judgment. well, our will can create a new america. in 1972, one where there is freedom from violence and war at home and abroad, where there is freedom from poverty and from a nation where there just at least a feeling that we are making progress and ensuring for everyone medical care and ployment and decent housing. where we more decisively clean up our streets, our wat

americans are highly optimist. there is a geral feeling among opinion makers that china would eventually triumph, that the stimson doctrine or work tha japan go broke, trying to maintain itself the asian maland. that japan's wa inevitable. hence the americans did not become disillusioned witthe antiwar aspe. it did not lose faith in the faith in the peace system. as a korea area, writes, it's far from clear how far the structure of 1921 and to the structure created at washington after world war one had crumbled. so. let me conclude. the united ill faces a future with optimism. hopefulness remains throughout the kellogg system would remain effective. the syst was not yet lost and this faith remains until 36. the shadow of korean coeion is confused with the substance and the of the manchuria crisis is, not that of illusions st, but illusions maintained. thank you.

uh for the americans. do you seeing that this inner pressure, or they just come for the bond and administration may still on the issue, may lead to some converse pressure on the not in the whole government because let's face it, the americans can be privy a roof less even than that. on alice, when their own american interest are affected on are so many moving pieces here as well, is now going back to the status of the client's routine, which is really interesting. this is a conversation we've had regarding the music is for many years is with all the clients we dream or is the as they say that team is lacking, is wagging the dog. and i think there's a struggle now we're still in israel. it's so are afraid, and they have been saying this out loud, including a come are be viewing others within the right we or far right government that we are going back to that kind of stuff is where the america's telling us what to do with the are those who are still insisting that israel has not lost it's political power, in

government officials, to american companies, which sounded on the foxnews channel. this is just a couple of days ago, the president talked about the fact that we are ready for joint production of weapons, and when you do it for ukraine or together with ukraine, then you do it with the americans, and most of the production will still be deployed in your states , as well as in ukraine, that is, in fact, we are talking about certain such explanations for american partners that money for ukraine is money for you, and this is , as it were, such a political component of this story, and what is the practical component, you communicate in sufficient detail with american companies, how do american defense-industrial partners treat the ukrainian market, what are their visions, what are the risks... what are the challenges? well, first of all, uh, first of all, it's very good that those messages, to the foreign defense industry in general, are being sent, and are being sent at the highest level from the president, it's already very good, and it has taken on this, in my opinion

netanyahu has no answer to this question, so now the americans, the british, the same former head of work either, it won’t work, and the global south, you want , call it the east, you want global yu, but they understand it perfectly well, they see that america is confused, no matter how we talk here about how this is all an american conspiracy, that they are trying there, that they have read everything, they are not read everything, they make mistakes, they behave like a wounded, former great power, like a hegemon that does not maintain control over these territories, nor over others, nor over the near middle east, even if they are now trying to call it the indo-pacific, as they are now trying to come to an agreement with the xi, if they even propose changing the name of the asia-pacific region to the indo-pacific region and do not hide the fact that all this is for the sake of containing china, no, the global south will not tolerate this, which means, well i’ll stay for a few questions, firstly, about the cruelty of the fact that in gas , i think, this is not only pr, but also the r

and then we will talk about how american companies perceive the ukrainian market, what are the problems, what are the prospects, but this will be after the advertising information break. when colds and runny noses come, noses want to go to the resort, humer for daily prevention and in the complex treatment of runny noses. humer - a sea resort for the nose. there are discounts on humer nasal spray, 30% in travel and savings pharmacies. try flebodia 600, pink french pills for acute hemorrhoids. phlebodia 600, treat hemorrhoids without any side effects. tired of heavy and bulky forks, then. compact and powerful saw strong from unpack tv just for you. now you can cut trees and bushes with ease. the strongg saw is so convenient to use for carpentry. it is the perfect tool for your home or garden. and the price is only uah 1,499. a reliable battery is also included. cut branches, cut timber, chop firewood. you will do all this in one movement with the strongg saw. only see how quickly she can handle even the thick ones. saws, the strong saw is easy to use and portable once it's ready, and unl

filipino americans the fastest growing american-asian growing population in the state of california. local business ordinance. first responders. teachers, police officers, neighbors and your lected officials. today, we come together to reflect upon 125 years of shared history with fill ponento and americans and the history this in many ways i just learned more about over the course of this month as we cap off fill ponento-american history month the events of the spanish-american war. during this war, the span yards refused to surrender to the philippinose. refused to accept tht philippinose could defeat them in war. they would rather vernaled to the united states which is what happened. so who i we come together tonight to celebrate our history and our community, it is i bit are sweet reflection of conclusion of the worry in 1898 resulting in the signing of the treaty of pair i guess. the treaty not only transferred fill ponents from pain at this time united states but also the other spanishical neils puerto rico and guam. the philippine delegation was barred from participating or a

host: what are your thoughts on the american dream? caller: the american dream? am pretty much living it. host: what do you mean? caller: i'm retired now. thanks to the union i got a good retirement. i'm doing fine. i'm doing fine. i don't really have much worries. host: how do you think unions are doing in this country? caller: if it wasn't for the unions this country would fall apart. way back when the coal miners first started, that is when the unions got formed. you had to live in the coal miner's home, buying from the coal miners' stores. we can make a decent wage now. we would be scraping the barrel to make any money at all. host: is it say the health of the american dream depends on the health of unions? caller: partially. i'm not saying that's the whole thing. i would say that is a good bit of it. host: thanks for that call from pittsburgh. another reading of the american dream. axios story picking up on this wall street journal poll. the story says america's enormous wealth gap is often cited as the reason for the decline in the fate of the american drea

we owe it to the american people to stand up and secure the border and we did that. the core policies in hr 2, parole fixes, asylum reforms, limits on the cvp, turn away authority, empowerment of state ags to sue and defend those laws. we need those things, we need to ensure the unaccompanied children are safe like we do in mexico and canada. my republican colleagues are too quick to want to trade those off as if they are unimportant. as if a child being sold into sex trafficking trade as we speak is unimportant because we must pass the nda and. we have to fund the federal government at its full tilt at the nancy pelosi spending levels which brings me to my final point. spending restraint means actual restraint. doesn't mean the fraud that is perpetrated in this town on a regular basis by republicans and democrats alike. all of the so-called side deals that will blow the lid off of spending are completely unacceptable. to speaker and senate republicans i say if we are going to cut spending it needs to actually cut spending year over year because the average american

were trying to market the americans. i'm very good with brandy. so if you really created this brand as the sword, thus brand, and they decided that you agree with this plan, you're a radical, you're a terrorist, some besides their, your and the american and you don't want peace. but also there are actual statements made by the lives of uh, what is the last name example, who was uh, the, uh, uh, an adviser, adviser diploma. is what department are ill? sure. who, who made it very clear in 2005, that we are studying palestinians, the idea that there would be a state and there will be no, there will be no stay. there will be a peace process. but to the contrary, what we are trying to say, and this is what you mean, the apologies necessary, not only interpretation, we want to buy the stimulus on a die if you said, but we don't want the killed. i think for anyone who has even the most basic understanding of collective psychology, it's pretty obvious that guys, it has become a very dangerous human experiment because it is bound

soviet-american interaction. during the cold war.o keep the contradiction under control constituted mutual nuclear deterrence. now economies are connected. the phenomenon is of a different order, but in both cases , careless behavior threatens collapse on both sides. if the feeling didn’t come during the negotiations, it came at biden’s press conference. do i trust him? trust but check. repeatedly during negotiations with gorbachev. indeed, why waste successful finds? slovak maryan kamensky increases the intensity of passions. on the sidelines of the ates summit, a meeting of two leaders - biden and sizenping. suddenly pop. it was a fly, says the american leader. ordered their removal, artist amurim from brazil, work two years ago called the first conversation, little has changed since then, but the image still remains relevant, continues the theme of american-chinese relations, craig stevens. cleaning on the eve of the visit of dear guests. one rug is in the colors of the chinese flag, the other says: welcome, man. in china, alexand

as far as americans that are in gaza, we know as many as 400 americans contacted the state departmentrying to leave. about 300 have successfully made it out. trey. >> trey: alex, seems like the u.s. and others want this humanitarian pause and seems like israel is open to it, they just have a reasonable request. release the people you kidnapped. is hamas willing to entertain that or do they want to keep the hostages and get the ceasefire? >> well, trey, we again, 241 hostages there. what we know about the conditions, likely expectation that many of them, if not the majority of them are in this intricate system of underground tunnels. we've heard no cooperation from hamas, no attempt to either have families contact them, israeli forces continually ask if the red cross could get in to verify the conditions of the hostages that of course has not come to fruition at this point. more artillery tonight ramping up a lot of questions of what this will mean for the soldiers, their main focus dismantling hamas and finding the hostages. in reference to a ceasefire on the table, as far as israeli

the african american sailor was grabbed and charged with murder. he went through the court- martial proceedings and the court found him not guilty. as we think about cases like that, you wonder how this man would have fared in the civilian justice system. for example, if this had happened in new york city, for example were baltimore for that matter or washington or anywhere. there were ways in which african american sailors in the civil war navy could have achieved a level of justice they might not have been able to have equal in civilian life. but by a large, it was a case of being integrated into a service but, at the same time being discriminated against in all kinds of ways. let me stop there for now and, i will let eddie take over and cover the postwar period and then we would like to get some conversation going. at the time permits have you make comments and ask questions as well. >> thank you for being here. most of my research has focused on the army, both of my parents were in the army i was in the army. the navy just happened to -- but in

opens its position between the different american parties, the two major american parties.s was a complete humiliation and insult for those who were supposed to be the representatives of the strongest country in the world, america. the most powerful country in the world had become a tributary state of israel. all those representatives were afraid that aipac would become their enemy in the elections. support their rival candidates, so they all jump up 26 times, this was a complete failure , although in the end, he could not endear netanyahu to obama . obama desperately seeking facelift america was a friend of the islamic world. part of this view was due to america's closeness with israel. although the americans and obama personally have and continue to provide their services to the israelis, their views were not completely compatible with each other on several issues. finally, i think. he won because, after obama , someone of his kind finally entered the white house. a person named donald trump. the third president that netanyahu experienced was trump. trump may be said to h

anyway, the american dream still exists. the problem with obtaining the americanth dream is if you're doing anything at all and you are making any kind of money at all you are partners with the government, state, local and you're given a third about what you make, in some cases more than that toso the government to institute these programs that really accomplish very little. most of our welfare programs create more people on welfare than it does getting more people off d welfare. -- >> the u. s. senate is returning after their party lunches for a couple more votes on nominations including on whether tos advane president biden's -- t second? there appears to be. the clerk will call the roll. vote: the clerk: ms. baldwin. mr. barrasso. mr. bennet. mrs. blackburn. mr. blumenthal. mr. booker. mr. boozman. mr. braun. mrs. britt. mr. brown. mr. budd. ms. butler. ms. cantwell. mrs. capito. mr. cardin. mr. carper. mr. casey. mr. cassidy. ms. collins. mr. coons. mr. cornyn. ms. cortez masto. mr. cotton. mr. cramer. mr. crapo. mr. cru

and this allowed americans to. and in the meantime, also that environment of chaos also allowed americans to responsibility for the fire. we weren't anywhere near there, we didn't have anything to do it. we don't know who this woman is. is effectively what they sort of say in the history books. so so this first incendiary, for instance, is completely in the rebel press. she's in london newspapers. she's mentioned in these two manuscript sources, but american based newspapers do not mention at all. don't make any suggestion that there might have been a woman involved in setting new york city on fire. now, the question that's probably on your mind, since i haven't given her a name is who was she and why she done it? and here? i can really only speculate. maybe she didn't own any property in the city either because she was too poor own property, or because she came from out of town. in either case, maybe she wouldn't have cared about setting the city on fire. i don't have a stake here, right? i don't want city to fall

more americans believe that american money should stay-at-home. american muslims should not be shipped to israel to bomb innocent people under the pretext of defending yourself. this is insane. but what you are doing is massive. saturday, there will be a massive rally in washington, d.c., and if you are in the area, come and join. look up the muslim community activities in your community or the jewish progressive activists. they have all been doing marvelous jobs. we have to make sure our voices are there because the cries we get from being discriminated against is nothing to the price that the people of gaza and palestine have been pain, so i thank you for your advocacy, and if i may say, if you encounter any dissemination, our organs -- discrimination, our organization is here for yo u. we have 35 offices nationwide. our services are for you. you are not alone, we are working for you. and you are not alone because you have so many americans believe in justice for all, including the palestinians. host: american officials have always said that isr

to be an american. an important part of our work. that we begin under president biden. it is a work we must finish. we celebrate these 150 judges and will continue renovating people who are committed to protecting our constitutional rights. the american people deserve nothing less. mr. president, i yield the floor. i suggest the absence of a quorum. the presiding officer: the clerk will call the roll. quorum call: the clerk: ms. baldwin. >> and thank you for continuing to show strong bipartisan support for ukraine. i agree with the points just raised by the ranking member of the urgency of our making our nuclear fuel system more independent of russia and the future being critical for zero carbon american developed energy source for the future. thank you to our witnesses. the brutal russian invasion of ukraine has been a profound strategic failure for putin. nato instead of being divided or we can has expanded exd strengthened. as you testified as a as al coalition of 50 countries providing more than $90

american? i understand correctly?because the number of muslims in the united states is growing, but even in the midst of the muslim population of the united states, there are a lot of people who really perceive this monstrous humanitarian catastrophe in gaza as, uh, absolutely a tragic, unacceptable situation, because they understand that a situation has arisen that allows israel to act with the harshest methods in one of... the world, and this, of course, is a tragedy for many people, it is completely normal that many people perceive it this way americans, biden understands this very well; moreover, among voters, democrats , the number of people with left-wing views who have traditionally sympathized with the suffering of the palestinian people is increasing, and at the same time biden needs to cling to the pro-israeli part american society, and this is - not only - americans of jewish origin, this is a huge number , evangelicals, a huge number, anglo-saxons who belong to various directions - protestantism, who in ge

dmitry, what are the americans saying?t to understand and to answer your question because it is very difficult to answer yes or no. they say that we need to have so many fighters so that we have enough for china and russia. and we have said it over and over again. but in simple terms, for the first time the united states is openly declaring that america's goal is significant, even i would say. nuclear superiority over russia over china is absolutely correct, but they forget that we do not look at the intentions of the united states of america, but we look at the combat capabilities of the nuclear deterrent forces, and we will look for compensating means and forces, not for that to take some part... let's say of the american nuclear potential, to say, well, only it will be used against russia, of course not, we will look for compensating potential against the entire sum of carriers and warheads of the united states of america. by the way, these conclusions of these commissions are in complete contradiction with the treaty o

now the department has zero asian-american professors, zero professors of asian american descent, evengh they claim that across university they have met the quota of 15% asian-american professors, the campus. so. i think we have time for one more question. yeah. interested in the scarcity idea that you brought up with the design of but also that you're bringing up affirmative action? because i've been thinking a lot about the upcoming supreme court affirmative action. what do you think are possible solutions to i mean, i don't want to call it scarcity, but really get right. right. so have you come across what you think are potential solutions or ways to approach scarcity so that you don't look allies as. so the question is sort of how to what are some expansive ways think about beyond scarcity as sort of the only way of thinking about how resources can be allocated. yeah, i've thought about this lot too. so, you know, in the book talk about how i really think the scarcity that scarcity mindset set is foundation of white supremacy. so this idea there's not enough. and so you have to fig

they're not that much know there are pockets who do we are the americans, the american muslims are very progressive left elements on the right. the on the say honestly, frankly, the actually somebody great. you know who, who got many jews as well. we saw a huge and you know, yeah that's, that's about all this me and let that includes a lot, a lot of progressive less. uh, people in the united states are jewish and they are pro palestinian and antivirus and they've been very loud. uh and yeah, definitely includes them up. so you've got this mix of people, but they're sort of fringe. when you put together the whole sort of $350000000.00 americans, they don't add up to it. they're loud, but they don't add up to a very big number. most americans are, you know, they're not happy with what's going on unless they're racist republicans. but basically, democrats are not heavy, but they're not going to abandon by the way that seemed to me. uh and when i saw a pole, i saw a post anti defamation in the ball, 40 percent of americans think israel treat developed indians like the nazi street of jews. i

relations and american priorities. ukraine is a priority for the americans, they have not only value orientations here, but also a fundamental interest for the eastern european flank to be under control, to be reliably protected, and for this flank to have reliable american allies, and this pro-trust, of course, it's about trust in our system, how it works , it's about the effectiveness of that system and that we have to be a success story, both in the states and in europe, but especially in the states, you know their mentality success stories very important, so of course there are stories about individual personalities that you mentioned, but nevertheless, for american relations, who see this world, well, with such, as americans sometimes say, joking from the height of a satellite, all these things, so of course they are such irritants but... american politics and the american strategy in relation to us , in relation to europe, in relation to russia, is not determined by individual individuals, and when i sometimes he

that americans were killed. americans remain hostages. hamas killed americans and terrorists still hold american hostages inside gaza. that should be the beginning and end of the argument as to why we must crush and kill hamas. thankfully, because of president biden's resolve and strong leadership, groups of hostages have been rescued including 4-year-old abigail, an american citizen. as of today there is still 160 hostages. one of eight american hostages is idan alexander. 19-year-old from new jersey, northern new jersey in my district. you can see him shared with me by his family, his mom. i have spent time with his family. they are pomponnal people. such wonderful, warm people. a sister. all you have to do -- after graduate interesting high school in 2022, he began serving in the israel defense forces. he's the type of person who would regularly call his mother to check in and his sister considers him to be her best friend. he's devoted to his friends and is always there for his family. i have seen pictures of him at the prom. he's jus

now, she is one of some ten americans thought to have been kidnapped and taken into gaza, two other americanselease under the current terms of this ceasefire, but certainly today the fact that she is free, the fact that she is back in israel is a symbol of hope to the other hostages that remain in hamas custody. kate? >> erin, has the family said anything about where little abigail will go? >> reporter: not at present, and it is unclear if they have, in fact, connected with abigail at this point. in terms of the process, when the hostages are brought from gaza through the rafah crossing, they are greeted by israeli troops, some of those israeli troops specially trained to be able to communicate with children, they are identified by the israeli military. they undergo a medical evaluation and then from there they are brought to an israeli air force base, they are boarded on to helicopters and then sent to hospitals and there at the hospital one of pfeiffer in israel, abigail will likely be reconnected with her family waiting for her in israel. we hope to see those reunions. we've been seeing th

tests american values. in the war on poverty we see a direct confrontation between these values of compassion and discipline that that i've been to you the war on poverty thus tested the potency of the american dream. the american dream being the idea of america as a place of opportunity for all the war on poverty. that by testing whether policy could extend that opportunity to all americans, the war on poverty was confronted with and grappled directly with the possibility that modern america's economy could not be restructured to provide for all. and that jury fixes like the dole would be necessary to lift the american poor from poverty. the dole, meaning we give up. we're not going to try to this in any kind of systematic way. we will just write checks. that's the best we can do. a war on policy, one poverty policy makers retained the doubt that a dole or any kind of forced redistribution could achieve the end of poverty or that the would not fatally undermine other aspects of the poverty that americans d

american humanitarian policy. a usa agency, and this is an agency for global media, and this is an agency for trade and development, this is a leading american think tank, these are not other government organizations and they support a network of ngos, these are thousands, hundreds thousands of ngos in all countries of the world. the fund, therefore, is the conductor of the aggressive foreign policy of the united states of america, and uh, it was accused of interfering in internal affairs , which means that states such as venezuela, russia has repeatedly accused this fund of interfering in internal affairs, uh, and we can say that , that in interfering in the internal affairs of georgia , kyrgyzstan, and armenia, the democracy development fund is engaged in promoting some positional movements in different countries, they are engaged in supporting positions, they are also looking for where it is still possible to organize some protest movements, where they can be transformed. a society where there is protest potent

we can create another incredible american century.s moment demands a president focused on unleashing american potential. i understand from all my work in the private sector the economic challenges and the innovation opportunities of this moment. we must also recognize that border security is national security and our national security is compromised every day we do not control our own borders. the likelihood that hamas agents have entered america has increased dramatically over the last 2.5 years. the radical left support of our open border policy has overwhelmed our defunded border patrol and put american people in danger. i've been down to the border more times than joe biden. we've had troops from our state down there, multiple deployments throughout my time as governor, including flying helicopter missions from san diego to the gulf coast, trying to stop transnational criminal organizations that are helping drive the mass invasion, 6.5 million people and 300,000. we have lost more than five vietnam's of americans dying of overdose

americans are struggling under president biden's economy. a working mother of two is going viral on tiktok this morning after confessing her family is living paycheck to paycheck despite the fact that both she and her husband work full-time. watch this. >> i feel like my husband and i are doing everything right. we both have good jobs. i'm a nurse. i'm a registered nurse. i work full-time. he works full-time. we just got paid this past friday. right? we paid the mortgage, bought some groceries, put some gas in the car. and guys, it is tuesday, we have like 2 or $300 to last us until next friday. maria: wow. that is real life today. house ways and means committee chairman jason smith joined me and we talked about bidenomics' failure. he joined me on sunday morning futures yesterday. watch. can assess where we are in the economy today. >> working families are struggling just to put food on their table, clothes on their backs and gasoline in their cars. since the day a that joe biden took the oath of office, inflation at that point was 1.4%. no

we welcome those who believe in the american dream. americans support dreamers. dreamers support america. i'm opposed to this bill mr. westerman: i reserve. mr. grijalva: i reserve. the chair: the gentleman from arkansas. mr. hall: i rise mr. karl: i rise in support of this bill to protect our community from failure of securing our border. our security is at great risk because of illegal immigrants. this bill takes huge steps to address the challenges we face in our borders and prohibit the housing of illegal immigrants on federal managed lands which include national park services, u.s. forest services, bureau of land management, and u.s. fish and wildlife services. mr. carl: we've got a real crisis in this country and we can't wait any longer to address it. since president biden has taken office, there are over 6.5 million illegal crossings in the u.s. that we know of. that we know of is the important part. this is why it's absolutely critical we secure our borders and we enact measures to discourage further waves of illegal immigrants. we can't keep encouraging

shuster, which is part of it, or comments on this large text that was published in the influential americane, but well, obviously, ukrainian tv viewers, ukrainian voters and, in general, everyone those who now live in ukraine, they feel betrayed, because there is a single national telethon that tells one thing and shows a completely different picture, and on the other on one side is the american edition of time, which says, listen, well, in general, he feels betrayed, almost betrayed, zelensky, and in general it is a disaster, because no one is reacting now the way they reacted a year ago, when he was in the united states of america, to him there they didn't give a word in the congress, and that is also a big problem, isn't it time for zelski to talk seriously with the people, with the people, and first of all with the political leaders, because we don't see this dialogue, there is a m... parliament, there are leaders of political parties who were elected before of the verkhovna rada, to whom the people entrusted the representation in the verkhovna rada of ukraine, but in a year and 8 month
