the separation of church and state and the prez, et cetera, no establishment of a relincoln but free exercise thereof. it's. >> interesting, the left, the soul of the american university, i went to princeton seminary. let's make a deal. you take the schools but you have to teach ethics. now, the left has not only taken those schools but they said you can no longer teach ethics, there's no natural law taught anymore. you bring up religion in a brown bag you get laughed out of the room. this is for real. everyone talks about a separation of church and state but it's very interesting. paul ryan when he looks at the -- he sees moses, that got him a separation, no law. no ten commandants in our secular society, i don't think so. i show compassion and love, showed up about zero. roam wasn't the most loving society, right. [laughter] >> cold sterile, brutal, the doctrine of love at zero, do you want a separation of compassion and love from our tradition? to the left, i know what they mean, they don't want religious establishment, but if you do a total separation, human rights claims and hum

but there's other ways to do it -- by posting police outside the person's house, et cetera, et ceterabut the idea of waiting till the end of the investigation in every case, you can see that would be a very -- you could see there'd be a lot of mischief, potentially there. and people's right to know would be -- >> but there's so much more to this issue. i mean, yes, there are police shootings, but there's police misconduct in so many different ways. i mean, i think of some of the video footage i've seen of the sandra bland episode on facebook. these are the kinds of episodes that contribute to a legitimate sense of institutional racism, within the black community certainly. >> so is there a middle ground where maybe you don't say it right away, you don't wait 30 days. maybe you say two weeks. you give people a chance to calm down for one week. like, should there be a middle ground, that they go back to the legislature and say, "not 30 days, but what about a week?" >> well, you're talking about the bid and the ask is between -- if you take the "until the end of the too long, okay, so yo

money laundering, sex crimes with children, et cetera. must read. that must read tweet about hillary clinton and her sex crimes with children, that's now gone. and now former general michael flynn who believes stuff leak that and spreads it around, he's now slated to be national security adviser. michael flynn this week tried to quietly disappear that tweet, tried to delete it, except, thanks to the way back machine, god bless you, nothing ever really disappears anymore. so he did try to take it down, but he can't make it go away. that said, the conspiracy theory that i consider to be perhaps the greatest obama conspiracy theory of all time, that

jobs leaving, isis, obamacare, et cetera.e also gave his most pointed critique yet of hillary clinton's campaign. he praised her personally but accused her campaign of essentially being too cautious. he equated it to sports when you think you are winning you play it safe. he believes that's a big part of the reason she lost. >> kristin fisher. >> i think we are going to hear a lot from president obama over the next four years. >> in sports you think you are hitting on a lead you sometimes thi are vulnerable. he was saying i could have beat hillary clinton and we would have had a better candidate. >> u.n. vote against israel settlements. >> it calls for cuts of funding for the u.n. until that decision is reversed. >> kelly wright is lye with the latest. >> good morning to you. the ripple effect is still being felt in the united states as well as in the middle east. palestinian president mahmoud abbas applauding the u.n. security council resolution to condemn israeli salemenettlemen. he hopes countries will try to form a plan f

, et cetera. and i don't see any ability or any readiness or political will to stop this crazy guy. the same with iranians. they must pay for every violation for their commitments. and what happens, at least with ballistic missiles, it is clear with their commitment supporting the agreement that they signed. >> let's turn to syria. you referred to bashar al assad and the atrocities to his own people. we learned faye 600 more were killed in aleppo. i'm wondering what you think the role of the united states in the trump administration should be when it comes to syria. my impression is that president-elect trump would like to basically wash his hands of syria and let putin and assad do whatever they think is necessary and just have the united states focus on isis. is that a position that you think would be the right one? is that a position you think would be good for the state of israel? >> again, it is not only israel. >> the region. >> we should know that today, we are living in the real small glob

et cetera. the simple decent things like that aren't taking place. >> donald trump was asked about the hacking yesterday and he said, it's time to move on. is he saying that and doing something different? to your point, about not being so public about this stuff or there is something to that in that we need to a certain extent move on? >> well, i don't mind having tough responses. i think if we haven't done enough with what we have done, may need to do more. but i've negotiated on four treaties with the russia and one if was the chief negotiator, and they can be very nasty ask be preparedly and easy to work with. depends on the circumstances and whether they're being block inside things they're trying to do such as gaping control of your position -- gaining control of your position. i think sometimes the best thing to do is to respond strongly but not talk about it. and that doesn't seem to be on the horizon -- >> can we not talk about closing facilities in new york and maryland and shipping 35

, et cetera.ou have heard anybody bring up that? we'll just give us a better government? >> you know, i think it's always good to have representation in the electorate of people who are affected by government and a wide variety of ways. so to shut out people who have felony convictions certainly blocks a large perspective from weighing in in elections. another aspect of this is that i did a story for fusion earlier this year where i went to one of two states in the country that allows people in prison to vote. maine and vermont allow felons, ex-felons and people in prison to vote. only two states that impose no restriction on people who have criminal records on voting. and the inmates i spoke with in vermont said that it actually -- the ability to vote made them feel more excited about reincident grating abou integrating with society and becoming a productive member of society because they felt. >> i get it i'm sure they like that. there is also me to consider and you and every other non-felon liv

in 10 to 15 years, you wouldn't have the same bus routes, et cetera. if you had ebola, they would put you in the hut, give you food and water and you would make it or not. so you didn't travel. with global travels nowadays, people could be on an airplane before they become symptomatic. it is not surprising it would get to this magnitude. that's not hindsight. again, i would have been wrong. i would not have predicted this would have happened. >> these new emerging diseases don't cause much disease in humans. we see them. they swap back and forth between animals and humans. is there anything you are particularly keeping an eye on, something that's new that you are thinking, i have to keep an eye on that one? >> there is always the unknown. you have to keep your options open. in terms of something new. if anything, we have learned to expect the unexpected basically. there are new diseases with new twists in terms of exposure, et cetera. i am more worried about the things we don't know about. >> knowing about these viruses is the first step. before some o

it is now going to be a river walk, et cetera. cities can do things in collaboration, learn from each other and not just study it implement it. there are limitations of what you can do without a federal partner. we can't push back certain forces that are bigger. we can do certain things where we can put a flag down. we are not moving. it is in our self-interest. they are true to the values of who we are and identify with. i don't see the city rolling back what they have done on the minimum wage. there are great opportunities and limitations to how far you can take this. you can't on your own fight the currency. >> a few last questions. maybe start with the mayor. we have gun to examine the need for urban reform in the face of. >> where we said we are not ready for reform. so when we look at a group of cities in the united states and we haven't taken a hard look at chicago, what we see is a proliferation going back 100 years ago. it would be interesting to see the british analog to this. 100 years ago in the progressive era, what w

you know, there are people that are still reluctant, et cetera. >> it's always going to be good. and that's healthy to have critics. the fact of the matter is the economy starting to improve, and that's why the market's moved up and some of the value stocks and we for a lot of heavy industry stocks, but the transition team, i think is fantastic. i reached out -- trish: you like all the business people, you like all the generals in there. >> i really do. trish: people who have done something. >> i reached out to one of our directors, a lobbyist and well-known lobbyist and said i want to speak about the labor war, and an hour later, one of trump's transition team members called me and asked me about the labor law and said this is the worst. gary: what do you mean by the labor law, the fiduciary rule that's going to go into effect with the department of labor supposed to in 2017, in short version here, and many viewers understand this, is that the department of labor wants people as fiduciaryies, financial advisers to think about cost first, what is an individual going to do in the

terribly dirty oil drilling in venezuela, in eduador, in russia, et cetera. you will just be giving more market share to the dirty drillers he's leading by example by saying this is what we're going to do, we can't control what they do elsewhere. who is drilling in the arctic, anyway? all you have to do is look at shell and it's been a farce. it cost them $7 billion and it's gone nowhere. >> steve, a farce? >> not at all when you reduce unnecessary regulation. remove the barriers and people will be able to do it in a fine fashion. if they can't make money on it, they won't do it in the first place. but companies that have their money at stake decide whether these are promising fields or not, on land or offshore. >> bill, what do you think? >> i'm all for more drilling, but i don't think we should relax our environmental rules just because they'll drill somewhere else. by mike's logic, we should have more trial labor in thunited states because conditions are even worse in bangladesh. >> but we are so much cleaner than the way they do things elsewhere in the wo

you know, there are people that are still reluctant, et cetera. >> it's always going to be good. and that's healthy to have critics. the fact of the matter is the economy starting to improve, and that's why the market's moved up and some of the value stocks and we for a lot of heavy industry stocks, but the transition team, i think is fantastic. i reached out -- trish: you like all the business people, you like all the generals in there. >> i really do. trish: people who have done something. >> i reached out to one of our directors, a lobbyist and well-known lobbyist and said i want to speak about the labor war, and an hour later, one of trump's transition team members called me and asked me about the labor law and said this is the worst. gary: what do you mean by the labor law, the fiduciary rule that's going to go into effect with the department of labor supposed to in 2017, in short version here, and many viewers understand this, is that the department of labor wants people as fiduciaryies, financial advisers to think about cost first, what is an individual going to do in the

. >> it's his job to get the cia that says that there might have been interference, et cetera, et cetera, and the fbi that says there was no interference, to get them together. we shouldn't be having this battle. the government should be speaking with one voice on this and that's the job of mr. clapper -- >> right. >> -- who is the head of odni. >> that's the discrete issue of the rnc and gop influencers specifically. october 7th clapper came out and said, as to the question of russia's intentionality and its actions and procuring of actions to get involved in the election, it happened. do you accept that intelligence? >> i accept that -- i accept that. i also accept the fbi's saying that that isn't so. >> no, the fbi didn't say we don't think russia had anything to do with the hacks that happened here. you're talking about the disgreet issue of rnc. i'm putting that aside. >> no, the fbi says there is no evidence of any kind of -- of any kind of hacking. the fbi comes to a totally opposite conclusion than the cia does. and now it could be a different burden of proof. the cia can use inf

there are new diseases that come with new twists in terms of exposure, et cetera. i'm more worried about things that we don't know about. >> reporter: knowing about these viruses is certainly the first step. before some of these pathogens reached dr. zaki's lab, they come here. so there's only a few people who have the privilege to come in here, right? david mckenzie has been taking us on the journey with a team of south african virus hunters. the last stop is here, a level 4 biolab in south africa, the highest biosecurity level. and the only lab of its kind on the african continent. >> these are the most dangerous pathogens known to science. very often their knowledge about how they were maintaining nature is very enigmatic. there are many questions about those viruses. they are very dangerous pathogens. and often we don't have much to offer to people who are actually infected with these viruses. there's no vaccines. there's no antivirus. that's why operators have to be well-protected. >> reporter: researchers have to train for a year before they can even step ins

. >> he likes lights and he likes to see how things are happening or moving, et cetera. so i was just telling him about the movement that this thing is going around. they are cook dinner or baking -- or doing marshmallows, et cetera. >> looks like a fun time out there. >>> it is not too late to make a child's christmas special. you have three hours to get over to lefty o'doul's to donate a toy. organizers are hoping to beat last year's donation record of 10,000 toys. but they do need some help. >> this is our 16th anniversary of the annual toy drive. the goal is for 20,000 toys. we heard that 13,000 kids could wake up without a toy. we're not going the let that happen this year. >> organizers say the toys are delivered to community centers and churches around san francisco. right now they are still accepting donations until the restaurant closes at 2:00 a.m. >>> what was supposed to be a 1 million dollar toy give away turned into a dispute with harsh words exchanged between county leaders. tom jensen explains. >> reporter: this is what is supposed to happen to $1 million

navy warships and aircraft, et cetera.en't spoken to general mattis about it, but it's rainable to assume that he shares some of those concerns. we heard during the campaign that donald trump has a very different view of russia. is that a potential area of disagreement between them? >> it is and frankly one of the reasons why i'm inclined to be supportive of this choice. because i think general mattis' view of nato and his strong support of nato will temper the skepticism that the president-elect has expressed. and i think that general mattis has a full appreciation of the threat that is posed by russia. i don't think that he will be any kind of a apologist for russia or view russia with anything but the most deep skepticism. so i would like to see that in a secretary of defense. but it may bring about a conflict particularly when you have the national security adviser general flynn, so you have these two generals that have expressed i think in the past two very different views of russia. but frankly, i'd be glad to have t

, et cetera. >> jessica, a businessman and not a bureaucrat, imagine that? >> well, i mean, that's all well and good, but one of the main premises trump ran on was reinvesting in defense. and how much our defense has been weakened. and, yes, there is fraud and abuse and waste within government agencies like there are with any large even corporations. these are things that have to be overseen. but to say there's a general all government agencies are bad or don't help us and that all they do is waste is not true. if trump can come in and continue to change things, i mean thrks is now the military industrial complex that's been going on as jonas just said for decades and decades and decades and make some changes. and still get the armor and the cars and helmets that our military who are serving need. >> right. >> and get rid of these other problems, that's the main problem. >> john, it's about reallocation of money. you have a logistics department in defense that's bigger than u.p.s. so, again, it's where do you want to spend that money. >> yeah. you have a log

, et cetera, et cetera. starts right now. >>> tonight on "all in" -- >> donald j. trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the united states. >> the extraordinary measures president obama is taking to prevent any kind of muslim registry and to trump-proof the country. >>> then the debacle in north carolina that left democrats in the dust. >>> plus trump's pick for press secretary. >> twilight sparkle from my little pony said this is your dream. >> and a rare retraction from newt. >> i goofed. draining the swamp is in. the alligators should be worried. >> when "all in" starts right now.

and he was a governor, et cetera, but also he's involved in some legal related to latin america, first the latin america bank, development bank, and currently is providing consulting services. so these are the four speakers, but we do have of course general gray who made very brief opening remarks, but wait for his closing remarks. but at any rate, professor wallace was the chairman of the international law institute. professor at georgetown law school and so on, and our colleague for many years, very distinguished background. you can read all about it. so i think we have a terrific panel. we have also a very knowledgeable audience of scholars, academics, government officials will contribute to our dialogue today, and we are very grateful to them. we are also appreciative to susan for recording -- to c-span for recording the broadcasting of our discussion because to make sure that we're dealing with credible information that at the time when journalists and the media are struggling with fake information, so-called information propaganda, whatever one wants to call it. so we are gratefu

you didn't get one of those call 1, press 2, press 184, et cetera, et cetera. and also the people who answer the mail, whether it was nail mail, which -- whether it was snail mail or e-mail because we really believe that we need toed to be here for the people. when i called their names -- there are also others who filled those jobs throughout my time in public office. and they worked very hard to make sure that we could represent the people of maryland and to be on their side. after 45 years, though, it is time for me to say goodbye to elected office but not to service. mr. president, i had the high privilege to be the longest-serving woman in congressional history. but what i say, it's not how long you serve but how well you serve. for those who know me and have been to rallies and floors and so orntion they know that i say, i'm here to work on the macro-issues and i'm here to work on the macaroni and cheese issues. to work on the big picture, to make sure, though, that the people's day-to-day needs were converted into public policy. while we're working on pub

assert your most important and obedient, et cetera, et cetera. [applause] >> well, that is hard to follow. i've been struck all evening by the presence of the past, how vividly he occupies this room again and how welcome we all were at that table when i first did not thought daniel when he was decisive issue. so i'm going to follow jimmy's lead and because i am a writer, the definition of a writer is retake a march hare with the language that we put on a page then doubtless rolls out quietly off our times. i thought it would read to you from the book to which jules commonly referred end quote and that table this book of mine that came out almost 30 years ago about our shared neighborhood called running in place, scenes from the south of france. my wife and i sat her in the south of france this very week in return from it having given given -- a wide berth because the house and its history is no longer a happy one. but my memories of it are almost all wholly happy and i thought i would share a few pages from this boat about that. i first read and

you've got to be, you've got to repeat the thing the same way every time, et cetera. so robots in medicine make a heck of a lot of sense to me. >> that's absolutely right. so at counsyl we're focused on providing dna information that can be used to make important health choices. and the advantage of having a robotic process is that you can have very high precision, and high reliability in the process. but it really goes far beyond that and we could get into that discussion. >> i'd like to get into that discussion. you have x numb of robots now, where could robots work that you actually still have people working currently? >> i think it's good to understand sort of how the lab is composed and what it can do. we have 36 people who work in the lab. it's not absent of people. but what robots help to do is to take a problem that requires a lot of road work and a lot of precision and then free people to supervise, to see what has been identified by say the robot in the software stack as an area needing troubleshooting and the humans can come in and look at those areas. basi

average revenues per user, et cetera, et cetera. it is a stock that will do very well and has done when the economy starts to escalate a little bit, yondex to me is a tech play like so many out there. i think these guys are obviously suffering from google and at the same time in russia they're protected. >> b.k., what do you think the trade is? would you invest in russia stocks? >> i kind of agree with tim. think russia was mispriced because people believe when oil came down russia was at risk of default. i find the fact -- i don't think vladimir putin is going to default on anything. he is at the top of the game right now. i don't think it is going to happen. you get a mispricing there. the easiest way for the folks at home to play it is via rsx. you need to walk the ruble, but rsx is going to trade with oil. i think oil is going higher, so that's the way to do it. >> right now the oil markets are implying it is going to finish the year around 57 with a range of 43 on the low end to 73 on the high end, is what the options market in

and that is something that is expected to be done with tax reform, et cetera.would you -- what is the number one thing you would like to see the incoming administration do, that you think will help people in your situation? because, you know, donald trump points to global trade as being the reason that your jobs are going away. that's not all of it. a lot of it is, as you know well, automation and technology. so given those two realities, what do you want to see happen that you think would help you and people in your situation? >> well, you know, that's a good question. i'm thinking that the trade policies would be a good idea. again, when he was talking earlier, the quote that he said that it was due to the unions and high dues. again, i don't know what that quote was about. but trade policies would be a big help for us. these companies are leaving to exploit cheap labor. that's plain and simple. if he can change those trade policies to keep those jobs here in america, that's what we need. we need american jobs, not just union jobs. >> won't save all of them,

tommy row, et cetera. they'll continue to run the hockey team, and i'll just be a super fan and hopefully be walking into a march. since the election of donald trump. doug, i'm wondering what you make of it whether you think it's too much too fast, still has legs. what have you been seeing as you have sort of looked at the way that your own business has operated in this environment and just that the change of tone, i guess, that has propelled stocks to where they've gone. >> it's really just clarity and conviction. i think when we look for in the market maker is conviction in the marketplace. when charge constitutional investors have confidence to shift portfolios,ing we feel it here. we're feeling that. it feels sustained. it's not like some of the other events we've had brexit, et cetera. you had, you know, interest and volatility over a period of days. this is really sustained and hopefully obviously from my own personal perspective, i hope it continues into the new year. >> doug, it's joe. i know that

trade, currency, et cetera, the south china sea and also taiwan. over the decades, particularly taiwan, almost spark add war. a set of rules, who communicates, treaties, et cetera to keep shots from being fired here. with a couple of tweets and a phone call, donald trump is upsetting that order, potentially. and ears are perking up. you saw josh earnest, sort of a measured statement. reay firming china -- u.s., one china policy. the foreign ministry saying u.s.-china trading relationships is mutually beneficial. i guarantee you, behind the scene, certainly not just in the white house, but in china, there's real concern here. i want to read something. chinese have a lot of ways to communicate. one of their state newspapers, from "the global times" in english language, chinese mouthpiece, this is about trump. he doesn't have sufficient resources to deal with china wantonly. his many words will not become deeds. most u.s. people won't want to sink into a major power conflict. raising potential effect of these words, laying it out there for the world t

jobs leaving, isis, obamacare, et cetera. so trump trying to have a conversation with the president via social media. jim? >> not the first or the last time. thank you very much, athena jones. >>> now let's bring in david axelrod, the man who sat down with the president there. really, david, a fascinating interview, a deep-thinking interview, but also a bit of news in there. did you hear president obama blaming hillary clinton, at least in part for the party's loss in 2016? >> as athena suggested, he was very, very careful how he raised this subject. he was clear that he was proud of hillary clinton, thought she had done a great job under tough circumstances. thought she had been treated unfairly by the news media. but he did say that he thought that the campaign, perhaps the candidate, took too much for granted and played things cautious because of the polling, because of some of the things that donald trump had said and done that they felt had made him vulnerable and perhaps neglected some key parts of the country as a resu

you had the big auto bailout, et cetera. translate, though, for the people who were in these patchworks of counties, where the devastation was still happening. and there was not a strong response that they heard from the democrats. what they heard was trump somehow had a radar for their spain showed up, he went to that county, trumball county, and they changed the sign to say trumpball county. blue union democrats, trumpball county, and nobody in the democratic party got that or responded. >> and i mean, you've talked about this before. it's very easy to demonize and say, well, you know, racial dog whistles and things. and while you said, there was certainly an element of that, for the people that you met, i mean, it was about -- >> they didn't like that stuff. but they didn't like it -- but they didn't hate it enough to vote against for jobs. >> van jones, thanks so much. great reporting. >>> just ahead, some rare welcome news for the people of aleppo, syria. evacuations begin with a cease-fire in effect. i'll talk to the s
