it's marvel dc. you'll see a more of a homeland look as we get to more modern times that in the past we were worried about the entire planet. now we're worried about the entire planet, but we have to consider ourselves with our borders and our homeland itself as well. i researched that particular topic justice, but you know one of the things that i do find is there's definitely a correlation what's happening, the external world, and then what happens the comic books and so that engage between comic book characters storylines with contemporary news with other contemporary pop culture is definitely there in the forties, fifties and sixties. i'm trying to think a good example and i can't come up with one that's represen or tentative, but the it's talk comic books are talking to everything else going on and so i'm sure there there would be something there. just keep in mind, be like six months behind whatever's happening in the news. so that's one of thing. comic books, the comic does not address what's

chris owns bars in dc.ber of people eating out in dc is going down, is that happening? >> thanks, stuart, for having me on. it's a big issue as the opportop edtalks about and lesss folks coming to eat in dc. i'm talk to staff and guests and crime is out of control. you touched on some numbers but across the country, crime is going down and in dc, we're seeing opposite and more murders and carjackings and perhaps the most concerning thing we're down a thousand police officers and have about 3,000 police officers in dc and goal is to have 4,000. we're down 1,000 officers from pre-covid. there's not enough police in the streets to keep folks safe. stuart: how much is business down in dc, in your restaurants and b bars in dc compared to sa, i don't know, pre-covid? >> sure, the last two or three years was interesting between covid and everything else going on. our numbers are down and we've stayed okay and lucky to have huge restaurants or busy neighborhoods and next to stadiums in dc and a lot of small mom and

it is great to be out of washington dc.on't know if any of you have challenges with your coworkers sometimes, but i've had a few lately. i've got one that wants to throw hamas pep rallies in the capitol building. another when he does not want to turn in his homework he pulls the fire alarm. i saw the senate judiciary midi room was trending today on social media, and don't click on it if you have not already. it is not what you think, something far worse. it seems crazy stuff is always going on in that crazy town. it is great to be in america's heartland. usually this time of year it is mostly folks from iowa going to florida, not the other way around. we call you all snowbirds when you come down to florida with your big tent sweatshirts on. you go walk on the beach in like 50 degree weather and you get in the water, which is just amazing to us. we assume you are all part polar bear. i shared that story earlier at a meeting with some of our volunteers at the cedar rapids headquarters, and afterwards a guy that served in viet

dc...y comes to dc for restaurants and you can't get into a restaurant for love or money, but it wasn't like that. when you opened jaleo 30 years ago, there wasn't much like that in dc, you changed the way people ate here. yes and no. i've been... obviously, i've been given too much credit for bringing spanish cooking to america. spanish cooking was already in america. did i help popularise it more? maybe. but it was already here. i've been given a lot of credit for making washington dc a power force. well...i did my part. when i arrived, we had chefs likejean—louis palladin... mm—hm. ..chef of chefs, roberto donna, powerhouse of italian, nora pouillon, powerhouse of organic, before anybody was talking about organic and local, bob kinkead, the king of mid—atlantic cooking, jeff buben, the king of southern cooking. the list never ends. so when i came, i already... i feel i came to a city that was culinarily extraordinary. i mean, i'm forgetting gerard pangaud, yannick cam. oh, my god. mary r

protest in washington dc. a city that has been made famous throughout history for protest against injustice is robert. i don't think so. i think what people have learned is, you know, don't break into the speaker, but house office and smear free seeds on the wall. they don't steal to let turn. i think that we can set, that is to bring the general rules of how peaceful protests go with the thing. people understand that. but what i, what, what we have still sitting within the profile, assuming and march is taking place. whereas got violent that they got violent, but they, they did not try to scan the capitals. and i think that like with a one take way has been that we are having a protest. even there is comfortable rethinking. there is some level of discourse or internet for a police officer. the people understand what the parameters are. and i think that's been the, the, the kind of the little guard real to have been said by january 5th events. i don't think they have this way that people are going to begin aga

in dc thieves ran a cvs out of business.haldz selling what though stole around the corner. weirdly people were okay with it. >> a lot of people can't afford what is in there. stealing isn't the solution, right. however, maybe provide more access for resources to unhoused and low income folks for hare care, body care, hygiene care, etcetera. >> jesse: hare care, bodily care, hygiene care. primetime believes hare products are necessary. nobody believes that more than primetime. we don't think you can put carron the end of an item to justify stealing it. this guy is in an area rei care. then this guy he needs watch care. that's understandable. we need to be on time. cash care, this guy needed it so badly he was willing to shoot someone. or wine care. that i understand. who doesn't need a cold chard after a long day of doing crime. okay this guy is just a little car jacking. maybe they needed a ride. washington dc is suppose to be america's crown jewel. the land of our founding fathers. place our laws are written. the people liv

well, i can say as, as you said, i live here in washington dc. i've been here for about so we weren't there though. you did not go down. oh, i did not go there on january 6th, but i think i could probably speak for not just washington dc, but interstate. he's all around the country and that the no, we don't believe that the election was stolen. ida, i think we can save that, but on january 6th, and i do agree with larry, i actually attended the very 1st rally, which was the millions of like a millions of mag a march or something that was in november of 2021. it was absolutely peaceful. there was another rally our week after the election. there was a week after the election. there was another a rally that occurred sometime in dc. emberts january 6th, was the 3rd rally. so as to the question of why didn't people expose, you know, expect it to be violent because of the 1st 2 were not violent at all. there were security failures all around the board, but i don't think that there was anything deliberate behind it. we know that this is, mary mariel bow

medical hand is more from the court house in washington, dc. is a potentially very significant here in here in washington dc. in front of the 3, just 3 appellate judges. this is all about donald trump's charges that he tried to overturn the election he's facing for felony counts with the potential of up to 55 years in prison. he's appealed to the judge said that he's immune from prosecution . his trial judge denied that. so now he has sent it to the appeals court and the 3 judge panel heard arguments today. now he is basically saying that because he's president, he's amused then because of the separation of powers, the justice department can't go after him. and because of anything, he does an office under the official capacity. that means he's meeting prosecutor say he was acting as a candidate. and that said that would set a formal precedent in the future if presidents were allowed to commit crimes at office and not be able to be held criminally liable. now trump made sure he didn't have to, but he made sure to attend this hearing today and sp

and he's joining us live from washington dc. thank you very much for your time. you open eyes ation is one of those that's broke this case against bite. and then the secretaries of state and defense tell us why you believe they are liable on the us legal for failing to prevent genocide and gaza. you see in addition to the international law which prohibits the crime of genocide, there is also u. s. laws that prohibit the crime of genocide and there is a procedure to challenge and to bring a case against individuals as well as the officials for complicity in the crime of genocide. and this is the nature of the civil cause. a court case, a case that was brought in california in oakland, california, and the case is supporting $5000.00 and it's of various civil rights organizations . but the justice department attorney jane lynn argued that this quote has no authority over foreign policy matches. and the judge himself said that the primary concern for the port is the limitation of its own jurisdiction. reach has a case like this being rules and the us of them quote be

if the dc circuit upholds the order it's going to make its way up to c the supreme. >> you have the dc circuit decision on whether president trump has any kind of official immunity or civil lawsuits which there's constitutional through the immunity case, also the issue -- >> all of the cases in the lower courts have pulled the principal from supreme court precedents. there was some kind of immunity that attaches. whether it applies criminal cases or not the supreme court has not decided although the implications of these immunity cases as the lower courts have done, you certainly don't have immunity from criminal prosecution but then if you're acting as a private citizen and low courts have said when you're acting is -- candidate for president, that's almost by definition of private citizen then you don't have immunity or claim your acting in the office and so you're subject to the criminal prosecution. before we get to the hunter biden issue, this is your home circuit, screwing up the case while left and right in the 11th circuit. why don't you briefly address mark meadows? >> mark me

but also let's remember that support for israel is bipart is the most bipartisan thing in washington dc. is the one thing that both parties with very few exceptions can agree on, which is a blind support for israel and a disregard for actual us national interest which aren't in supporting israel by any stretch of the imagination uh, there really is nothing in it for the administration, but president biden set the stage initially after the october 7 situation where he flew over to israel and basically gave them the green light to do anything they wanted, we're not going to put any breaks on, you can do whatever we want, whatever you want, and by the way, here's the... and weapons to do so even bypass congress twice now to send more weapons to israel illegally without congressional approval, so it's a nijerk reaction, but the interesting thing develop, the interesting development here is that something very different has happened, which is that public opinion in the united states for once is not going along with the leadership. now recent polls have showed that barely half of americans an

he appears to know them alone in washington dc. thank you so much for your reporting now. so i was asked and prosecutors on thursday began making the case to be un stop court. that is true. it is committing genocide and guides that they argue, that is drugs, military response to the october 7th. federal attacks have been and continue to be an attempt to destroy the policy. and in people is read, has dismissed the allegations as best list and were present as defense on friday. on the 1st day of a genocide case, against the state of each row in the hague, demonstrations on both sides, much to the u. n's talk caught in search of 2 different visions of justice. inside the quotes and the legal team for south africa, she brought the case against israel, made the opening arguments to the publicly available evidence of the scale of the destruction resulting from the bombardment of garza and the deliberate restriction of food water. let's. let's do lectures, which are you available to the population of casa, demonstrates that the government of israel, no jewish people, is really ci

on gd associate professor of national security studies at the marine corps university in washington dc. welcome to dw. so what do you make of blinking meetings today? so he has an uphill battle, i think, with the turkish authorities because this increased concern going forward since the october 7 attacks occurred in israel. the cherokee is a material suppose to, along with cuts are off from us. and significant research shows that turkey is one of the main financial hubs, which the service entity basically is, is able to, to fund a considerable amount of funds to the organization in gaza, but also other operations overseas outside of kaiser. so what part of lincoln's job is actually to request or insist turkish authorities to, to take measures against this impact just informally, can visit the state department released as a number of names. i'm us members residing in turkey and offered a bounty for, for, for, for that capture. the secretary has an uncomfortable task inputs, you know, it's asking turkey to essentially end or significantly scale down and support from us. because everythin

i wanted to say again washington dc is a town of followers, not leaders. the word has gone joe biden and dnc we will not compete despite the fact that joe is down by 8 points in georgia, down by 8 points in michigan, down by 9 points in north carolina. joe biden who i supported last time, in my view is going to deliver us to trump, the sql. dean this and said i am going to do something about it. dean phillips is the only one with the courage, character and conviction to go against the grain, the legion of followers in washington dc who put their careers above their country and set america deserves a choice. america deserves a choice in its leader. having someone who's 54 years old like dean phillips trying to address the challenges of ai would help me sleep more soundly at night as opposed to the folks who are currently in office who think they are going to be there whether they solve our problems or not. they say we will be here no matter what. that is what they believe. the only people who can prove them wrong are in this room right now. people here in t

there is a lot of waste in dc.ou need an accountant to go in there and clean it up but we're not going to take away from anyone else. he has yet to answer that he voted three times. >> just a clarification, governor haley, in 15 seconds, should voter ins their 20s plan to work until they are 70? >> they should plan on their retirement age being increased. yes. we will change it to what life expectancy should be. >> one thing we disagree on is governor haley has said that social security is an entitlement but it is not. you are paying into it. it is not a welfare program. you are being taxed for this your whole life. to expect to have benefits on the back end, i don't think that is too much. social security for decades ran massive surpluses. what happened to those surpluses? the congress spent the surpluses. they have a big problem with that. so number one, we need term limits for membersover congress. number two, we need a balanced budget amendment to the u.s. constitution. number three, we need to get the presiden
