single month we found that the quality is not there and exactly what you said is low pay wages and low foley jobs are predominately the $5.00 main factor the main driving force and that includes everything from everything the hospitality industry to the food and beverages to even some of them and the medical services industry as a big portion of that comes from the fact that america has lost a lot of manufacturing jobs americans have lost 5000000 manufacturing jobs that basically created the entire middle class and this was basically due to outsourcing infrastructure to cheaper labor over in asia a lot of it was due to that but then another significant portion was also due to education over 2 thirds of the working of the work american workforce do not have a college education and that prohibits them from attaining higher managerial. position that you offer higher wages. what is i mean what are the questions i always love someone who studies the economy like yourself what is the actual state of the u.s. economy and i'm not talking about the state the politicians tell me on t.v. or going to se

earlier i spoke to washington correspondent joan foley about what the reaction has been from america.ht condemnation, as you would expect, any attack on us military personnel or an embassy anywhere in the world, it is sort of the same old song. the difference here is that there has been a short series of events, whereby the attack on a base in kirkuk which killed one american civilian and injured several us military and iraqi personnel, then very quickly the us decided a specific group was responsible for that, it is an iranian well—known group in iraq. it is a different thing altogether from the lebanese group. they retaliated and there were air strikes on the 29th of december that killed at least 25 of those militia members. and in the range of 50 others, as they have been described, were injured. part of the outpouring today of rage that you are seeing is the idea that, one, this was an attack on iraqi sovereignty, as the prime minister called it. secondly, that some of these injured were simply bystanders. so, the mood is outright a us right to defend its people and personnel anyw

well what we saw this morning foley in washington is that house speaker ringing the gravity of her words she's the 2nd in line to the presidency and now she is officially sanctioning the drafting of these articles of impeachment to push forward the proceedings against trump trump now appears to be he will be the 4th president in u.s. history to ever face such articles what will they be that is the prevailing question now in washington we saw from the report compiled after hearing testimony from 17 witnesses as well as examining the call transcript between trump and president alone has alinsky that the result of that report was what appears to be recommendations of articles focused on abuse of power as well as obstruction of congress which speaks to trump's efforts to not cooperate with these investigators in the impeachment inquiry now there's a bigger question though whether or not the house judiciary committee which is the body that will craft these articles whether the look back even further at the russia russia case in which mohler remember in the special counsel he cleared a triumph

well overshadowing all of this is the upcoming us elections in november of 2020 foley and the question is can this president be held accountable by the impeachment process will that happen 1st before he is up for reelection for voters to decide well republicans have long said elections are just around the corner why don't we drop this impeachment and let the american people make their voices heard they're counting on holding to be correct that republicans the base for trump are still very fired up about their president and they're gambling on those voters giving him a 2nd term as far as the democrats though they're looking at this as of several factors one is how much patience as the american public have with this impeachment process if you think about the whole moller investigation in russia months the year and a half that it really took away a lot of the public's attention and in a sense there's an argument to be made that that it's actually made this ukraine impeachment inquiry more difficult for democrats in order to focus their attack on the president and it's played into the repu

well foley this certainly adds the gravitas and the full weight of the house speaker's office behind the this impeachment process of course follows c. she is the 2nd in line to the presidency herself and she said this morning using those sweeping terms that this is about a sense of duty by democrats and all members of congress to hold the president accountable so now this next step is to draft what these articles of impeachment or these formal charges what exactly will be from the looks of it they will include abuse of power as well as obstruction of congress but a bigger question is whether or not democrats who are writing these articles will also look back to the russia inquiry if you'll recall earlier in the year the special counsel clear trump saying there was no evidence that he had colluded with russia to impact the 2016 election but he left the door open as far as obstruction of justice and hinted that it would be the congress's duty to act on those grounds if deemed that they exist now there are 2 schools of thought there are some democrats who want to make this impeachment a

senator foley. we start with where senator could look up. they have said give significant concerns about the authorization for the application for the fisa wars. you said earlier when it came to politicall bias things get murkier. that correct. because you can open an investigation and i see this to the former law enforcement official myself. you can open at pretty easily. he testified today beacon to be done with it easily we do start actually taking steps and surveys lane. that's when actually real questions arise in your testimony today has been in this report, is that when that happens, there is potential conservator about political bias. is that correct. >> connections, there are not consistent withs the practices and policies and what we couldn't reach a conclusion on is what motivated that printed. >> things very significant. here's the question. which is worse. is it worse to have a foreign government trying to meddle in our elections or is worse to have our own government meddling in the elections. >> i think that's exactly what thi

somehow congressional subpoena is no longer valid unless a court says it is is one of the purest foleys seen. there's no legal grounds for it and constitutionally it is a complete violation of why they exist to begin with. >> but your committee had problems with getting the obama administration and the attorney general to comply, right? >> and when they did, we held them in contempt, sued them and the court upheld our congressional authority to issue those subpoenas, which is what any court will do and continues to do throughout all this entire process. what i wish democrats two a better job of is when republicans -- you heard this almost every single republican launch into a statement before asking a witness a question. they would go on how there's no first hand witnesses here. i wish that every democrat would respond if you want a first hand witness, i assume that you want to see rudy sitting here, pompeo sitting here, bolton silgt here a silting here and sitting here and if you don't sit down and shut up. >> i believe that robert mueller who i have so much respect for, i wish he woul
