so, is frank timis corrupt? opinion, there's a simple answer — yes. we uncover frank timis‘s secret payments linked to an african president. do you think this is a suspicious arrangement? i do find the payments suspicious. we reveal how his company is getting between $9 billion and $12 billion from bp. 9 billion? mm—hm. he stutters: is it true? and we ask why one of the world's biggest companies signed up to such a suspicious deal. it's absolutely indefensible that a company like bp should be rewarding somebody like frank timis. mr dudley, i work for bbc panorama and we want to know why bp is paying frank timis $10 billion. this is senegal, on the west african coast. millions of people live in poverty here, but the standard of living could be much higher. this is a country that's rich in natural resources. large reserves of oil and gas have been discovered here, but some of this wealth has been lost through corruption. that money should be going to the people of senegal. the country's natural resources should be

frank: very complicated. think a lot of them -- they like the ideals of america, anda one character who is a lawyer who had studied the american constitution and would say to me, "you americould be so proud of your constitution and founding fathers," but many felt that in american foreign policy that america was trying to kp china down, particular in the south china sea and the development of islands there. they would call america bullies. very mixed, complex, nuanced opinions about the united states. laura: frank langfitt, you so much for joining us. broadway celebrated the top shows last night with the annual tony awards. e mythic show "hadestown" took home best musical, while "the ferryman," transferred from britain, won best play. it has been a record-baking year for the theater district, as tom brook reports from new york.e >> today we ly selling tickets for this evening. oard on listed on the either side. tom: broadway theater is definitely bringing in the crowds. ♪ tom: "hadestown," a musical ourevolvi

this is romanian businessman frank timis.ration rights for two large oil and gas concessions off the coast of senegal, even though it had no track record in the industry. the final go—ahead came from the senegalese president, macky sall. but the deal looked suspicious because frank timis had given a top job to the president's brother, aliou sall. why do you think that frank timis wanted to employ aliou sall? translation: very simply because he was the brother of the president, macky sall. it's extremely serious, because there is an obvious conflict ofi nterest. conflict of interest. we've obtained aliou sall‘s contract. it shows he was paid $25,000 a month for five years. that's $1.5 million. the president's brother was also promised shares worth $3 million. but the contract makes it clear there is a condition. aliou sall will only get the job if his brother, the president, allows frank timis to keep the valuable concessions. in 2016 gas was discovered in the concessions. bp agreed to buy frank timis out, even though it knew

the aim of anne frank day is 1st students to get a feel for the past so that history does not repeat itself. to moscow where police have detained hundreds of protesters at a rally in support of the investigative journalist good enough this comes a day after prosecutors dropped a drug deal and charges against him for lack of evidence was the goal of supporters say he was framed. opposition activists and journalists being carted off by police. any hope that the release of journalist even goldeneye of signaled a softening of the kremlin stance on free speech dashed. the russian opposition leader aleksei navai was among those detained at the rally against corruption in law enforcement. because a regional government by news limited as clueless is fantastic that they've released got enough look that it's just a drop in the ocean and now it's the could kill the we want all of those still in jail to know that we haven't forgotten. the love she was mostly i can't just sit around and do nothing as if they would date or marry over here just not just loose your purchase coverage this isn't over

frank lamir. he was a leader for the winnebagos that land on both sides of the missouri river and sioux city area. and also the native americans especially in the upper midwest. over the years our lives interacted multiple times and had opportunity to work with him and see the gentleness of his nature. he mellowed out in his later years. he never let up, he just found a smoother way to get to the goals to help out his native american people. he was a model of dedicated to selflessness. he also had more than his fair share of tragedy and loss and demons to fight. over the course of his life he demonstrated no matter of obstacles he could rise above them as we can and do the most good we can with the tools we have. he dedicated to being a a voice for the voiceless, including securing housing and food for others who he represented in the area. our tragedy skill exists in our community and frank saw the need to address those situations. we collaborated on a couple important things together. they were

frank: temperamentally is probably the best example.ple see jeremy hunt as a thoughtful, mature, reserved person. boris johnson is the former rsreign secretary. he is an outsized onality. hemps similar to president t in certain ways in ter of his charisma, particularly the way he relates to a lot of the right wing of the tory party. you will see a contrast in the next month athey move around the united kingdom talking about the issues, particularly brexit will be on the top of everyone's mind. jane: jemy hunt admitted he is the underdog. how does he win it? frank: the way he probably tries to win it is to make the qusstion of character, the iue with boris johnson. johnson is a polician who resonates with a lot of people. i have seen him speak to the conservative party at a conference. he is very funny, erudite, great literary references but people question his integrity. one of the issues is the promise of 350 million pounds going to the eu, much of that coming back to pay for the national health services. that was misading and it influ

because frank and melissa were kind of at odds. now, frank loved his wife, i can tell you that.genuinely loved his wife. he was a courier, he would drive across the state delivering things. oftentimes, he would call me on his phone when he was in the car by himself to check on me or for me to keep him company while he was driving. and i knew he loved her, but he was having a lot of issues with her because she was an opioid addict and a methamphetamine addict. he was considering leaving her. anyway, this guy tells me he thinks melissa had something to do with it. i said, maybe he just went somewhere just to cool down or whatever. he says, i don't think so. then he said he was going to dig a little further, because he said he had talked to melissa and her story was not adding up, she kept being ambiguous. he said he would talk to her some more. he called me back around 4:00 in the morning and told me, frank is dead. he had talked to the wife, and she told him what happened and what had gone on. she confessed to him, and he told me. this was before -- it was not until maybe three d

derby boss frank lampard remains the favourite for a return to stamford bridge.rter simon stone a little earlier for more on that story as well as latest on paul pogba's future at manchester united we are waiting for chelsea to make an approach to derby county. derby owner and chairman mount morris has said as faras owner and chairman mount morris has said as far as he is concerned, frank is very much the man they see as taking the club forward. he got the club into the championship play—off final which did not quite worked out but he is looking to the long term and he said if chelsea won —— want frank lampard they have to have in open dialogue. that is the case of offering them the right amount of money and he will be chelsea manager. ithink amount of money and he will be chelsea manager. i think is more likely to be the stamford bridge dugout than the second favourite or jose mourinho who has done the job twice. you never say never and this is chelsea because they are unpredictable club but the overwhelming expectation of everybody in football is that frank lam

i know what the impact is a frank lampard on 18. iam what the impact is a frank lampard on 18.same impact when icon now as an older player. in terms of his intelligence, he is up there with the most intelligent football. i com pletely the most intelligent football. i completely support him, yet. johanna konta won in straight sets. clare balding was watching the action. let us reflect on the results that have really made an impact. johanna konta having it out in straight sets that upside she had to win the hard way in the end, didn't she? i thought it was one of those very reassuring konta performances that we are seeing more and more. she was pushed hard by her opponent, her south health and well and she was able to close it out in straight sets. it guarantees her another match on the grass. she will be playing for the fifth time over the next couple of weeks. good practice for wimbledon. more importantly, this is a big event and into own right. this is where her pa rents a re into own right. this is where her parents are from. she has every chance of making a very good run her

we agreed to focus on regulation, energy, taxes and dodd-frank. and guess what. the president went to work and made it happen, guys. in the first two years, you know we talk about the shining object of the democrats all the time. in the first two years, under president trump's leadership, right away we reversed over 2,000 regulations. we unleashed america's energy potential. and became the world's largest provider of natural gas and oil in the world. [applause] we passed a historic tax bill that made us more competitive with the rest of the world and actually freed up a couple of trillion dollars of capital to come back into the united states. from unrepatriated u.s. profits overseas. how smart do you have to be to do that? we repealed the most onerous parts of dodd-frank and freed up over $2 trillion on the balance sheets of our smallest community banks and regional banks around the country. under dodd-frank we had lost 17,000 banks since president obama put that law into effect. as a result, we're now experiencing the greatest economic turn-around in u.s. histo

and in newcastle, pennsylvania, a young mother named pauline elliot wrote to her husband, frank, a corporal in the army, "d-day has arrived. the first thought of all of us was a prayer." below us are the beaches where corporal elliot's batallion and so many other americans landed -- omaha and utah, proud names from america's heartland, part of the biggest gamble of the war, the greatest crusade; yes, the "longest day." during those first hours on bloody omaha nothing seemed to go right. landing craft were ripped apart by mines and shells. tanks sent to protect them had sunk, drowning their crews. enemy fire raked the invaders as the stepped into chesthigh water and waded past the floating bodies of their comrades. and as the stunned survivors of the first wave huddled behind a seawall, it seemed the invasion might fail. hitler and his followers had bet on it. they were sure the allied soldiers were soft, weakened by liberty and leisure, by the mingling of races and religion. they were sure their totalitarian youth had more discipline and zeal. but then, something happened. although many of

we don't even know who betrayed the frank family. both of us were betrayed the frank family.i was lucky to get out. if i would have stayed in auschwitz, she would have still been with us but she was taken away, like many others, including my father and my brother, and she didn't survive, because auschwitz was liberated earlier in the war, in january, 19115. anne was taken to bergen—belsen which was not liberated until april, 19115. bergen—belsen which was not liberated untilapril, 1945. it's a story that never fails to shock, however much we hear it and how much it is repeated about anne frank and yourself, and anyone who lived through it. it is utterly shocking. you devoted a lot of your life to retaining memories of the holocaust. why is that so important? we have to learn from the mistakes which many millions of people made, the german people going along with hitler to murder the whole jewish people going along with hitler to murder the wholejewish population. it's amazing but hitler had conquered practically the whole of europe, besides russia, and all the jewish people i

frank the schoolgirl direst who was murdered by the nazis would have been 90 years old today thousands of journalism school pupils paid tribute to the teenager who found worldwide fame after her death. police in moscow arrest 400 supporters of the investigative journalist in town couldn't off was released yesterday by all sources after prosecutors admitted there was no evidence that she dealt drugs campaigners say he was framed. under the women's world cup reigning champions began with a bad marriage that straight down time sent the tournament into a spin with a 13th goal not strictly. i'm still gal welcome to the program. hong kong has been rocked by the most serious political violence since control of the terror she was handed back to china bowls and 20 years ago police used tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse tens of thousands of protesters blocked roads and stormed pala meant the demonstrators oppose a government plan to allow extraditions to china that's the status of not postponed a debate on the law. from peaceful protest to violent chaos umbrellas become shields and weapons

it's 10 years since dodd-frank. there have been a lot of attempts to dial back the things that went too far. our main thing is that now is also a good time to look at what you missed. and that maybe we should reconsider whether we have got the right architecture for dealing with the problem. even if it isn't going to come probablyyears, now is a good time to tend to it because we don't have an urgent problem. mike: you wrote about it for a fed conference, but is this really something the fed can do anything about or is this paper at -- aimed at congress? in the end congress is going to have to act. the problems exist because dodd-frank didn't anticipate these complications. there was a strong sense that too big to fail was the central problem of the crisis. i don't think that is the scientific consensus now, two years later. our suggestion is that there should be a congressional commission. you might laugh when you hear that, but i bet you most of your listeners don't know that there was a bipartisan committee that

here to announce this, pollster, frank lutz.ant to start with this. 14 of the candidates were there. but notably absent was the front-runner, joe biden. and the competitors used the occasion to take not so thinly veiled shots at him throughout. >> some say if we all just calm down. the republicans will come to their senses. but our country is in a time of crisis. the time for small ideas is over. >> the riskiest thing we could do is try too hard to play it safe. >> we don't need a crime bill, we need a hope bill. >> there is a debate among presidential candidates who have spoken to you here in this room and those who have chosen for whatever reason not to be in this room. >> frank, do you think biden skipped this? because it allows them to kind of try to outdo each other on the left front. so biden can just look reasonable by comparison? >> if i was advising him, i would have told him to skip this, the senate, the vice president, does not want to be compared to his opponents until he gets to the debate stage. that's only about 2

frank canno is still waiting for his. he's pleaded got guilty. detective trapp, there was a measure of relief and finally, she gave those rosaries to four grieving mothers. >> it's interesting to discover in this line of work that homicide detectives are actually softies. >> i think the more you allow yourself to feel the better you will be as a detective. we have to go to the dark places to find answers, the quicker we get in and out, the better it is for all of us. >> reporter: answers from dark places, we when to the the anti-inflammatory before gordon was transferred to death row. here he was a man who claimed to know the nature of his evil acts. but did he, we wondered? >> i screwed up. >> reporter: is screwed up the right expression to you? >> huh, probably not. i just didn't want to say it, what i really think. >> reporter: well, why don't you? >> it's, it's beyond evil what happened, what me and him did was beyond evil. >> reporter: then came sure enough the excuse he's worked it out in his head, the parole system is somehow to blame for

>> so i agree with frank on this one. i think the biggest value that democrats can get from mueller's testimony is to let him tell the story of the investigation. because for many americans, that story still hasn't come into focus. they've not read the report. if democrats will stay away from the process questions, asking mueller about the investigation, what he did, what he didn't do, those are questions he's really not going to answer, and that would be an unsatisfactory sort of a hearing. but letting him tell the story of the investigation will be productive for the country. >> joyce, is the difference between a subpoena and a friendly subpoena the difference between a merely reluctant witness and a hostile witness? >> sometimes yes, but maybe not here. mueller was very clear that he didn't want to testify. he believes that the report speaks for itself. that said, he won't be the sort of reluctant witness who is obstructive. he'll answer the questions that he can, but i don't think he'll hesitate to tell the representa

here we have a magazine featuring barney frank on it. he served three terms as congressman of massachusetts before he came out as being gay. the citizens of massachusetts elected him several more times and after he left office, he married his longtime partner. this is a button that they handed out at their wedding. we walked around the corner and explore the story of lgbtq activists fighting for the right to serve in their military. in 1974, this was a sergeant in the air force. he was a decorated vietnam war veteran who had served three tours of duty and had a bronze star. he decided to challenge the military ban on gay people survey. working with the father of the lgbtq rights movement, he decided to push back against the air force. the air force discharged him and offered a settlement is that of offering to change its policy. but you see this person's brave stance, going on the cover of "time" magazine in 1975 saying, "i am a homosexual." these stories start to chip away at attitudes that prevented gay people from serving in the milit

al franking had eight women accuse him of unwanted touching or harassment. do with that what you may but it's incredibly short sighted to say this was a problem the democrats committed by forcing him out. people forget this. al franken was a member of the senate judiciary committee. shortly after his resignation the senate judiciary committee considered brett cavana you supreme court nomination. can you imagine how it would have gone if al franken had been on the panel questioning about allegations against himself. it would have been a disaster. there is a benefit to having the moral high ground. sometimes it doesn't manifest itself instantaneously but recognize there's a benefit. >> also it's good to have moral high ground on its merits. >> the brutalness of one party versus the other. this is not so different than the impeachment argument because there's a play to win versus a play to do the right thing. i think at the end of the day the democrats did what they had to do. i think franken made the right call and he'll be back stronger than ever. i think we'

i want to agree with frank here.get to the president, we saw it in 2016, we're seeing it in this case, one way to get around the president is go around him, talk to the media, and then he watches the news, and he will see that the polls are bad and maybe it will stick with him. so, you know, there may have been some pollsters here that became kind of the sacrificial lambs, but this is one way to talk to the president because he doesn't want to believe any bad news. but let me say this. this is early. these polls are early. but if you're a pollster and you're trying to run a campaign, it's always good to have your candidate run a little scared. because unless you're running scared, you're not going to win. and so i think that this is a president who is used to a lot of people saying, yes, yes, yes to him, and if he wants to win, he has to have people who tell him the truth even if he doesn't accept it. >> to light a fire under him. gloria, when you said he doesn't want any bad news, was that "the wiz," don't nobody br

but if it takes time for the franking commission to respond, i would like to do away as a frank. i want to keep the quality of the correspondence. what is there in technology that i don't have to wait 36 hours to get something back from the franking commission so i can respond. how can i please quality using technology in ways that the speed of the response time. thank you mr. chairman. >> thank you. thank you mr. chairman. there is a lot of very interesting information here and i appreciate it. here's a concern. miss harris, you and the doctor has similarities with in your suggestions. and, my mother-in-law comes back from her annual visit with her friends. and she comes to our house and she says, you know, i still love you and i want you to know that i'm not going to fight this thing since you are in congress. did you think its wrong for you guys to get your salary for life after you are sworn in? where did you get that from? she said that was a conversation at the luncheon today. you guys get your salary for life and you don't have to get the same insurance that other people g

i completely agree with what frank said. i'll just put a little detail in some of the china specific elements of it. so i think three things have really changed in recent years. one is u.s. awareness that great power competition is here. the second is china's own sense of its own capabilities. finally, china's own sense of ambitions. all three of these changes together brought us to this specific moment. beginning with the very first one. so yes, we have this meme or cliche now, and it's in our strategy documents that great power competition is back, but the irony is for china great power competition never really ended. going back to 1989, one of my favorite quotes was that, you know, the cold war had ended. he said this. but two cold wars had begun. he sort of said herbally that both were directed against china. so for china, the cold war in a sense, one kind of cold war ended and a second one began and it was going to be much more complicated, a mix of economic engagement but also military hedging. that brings me to the se

frank. >> all right. lauren blancherd live for us in florida thank you. >>> happening now hope hicks president trump's former communications director is appearing for a closed-door interview in front of of the house judiciary committee. this is the first time the committee is hearing from someone inside the president's circle. the committee originally subpoenaed hicks to give public testimony but agreed to the private interview after negotiations. a white house attorney will be in the room and is expected to try to block her from answering certain questions. a transcript of her testimony will be released after her appearance. >>> today, hundreds of volunteers are all going to role work on a veterans home in napa county. >> it's the largest veterans home in the country and ktvu's christina rendon is there to talk about what's being done there. it looks like a lot of work behind you. >> yeah, there's a lot of lumber behind us. good morning to you pam and frank. we are at the veterans home in california here

back to frank's point? people around flippers their entire life, people who never call the fbi tending to criminals. that's who they hang out with and that's their surrency. so it's really not all that surprising. it's incredibly disappointing but it's not all that surprising because it's really more of the same. >> frank, it is very difficult to imagine anything that we talk about in trump world happening in a previous presidency, but imagine if you will, during your time of service in the fbi, that the president of the united states on a very simple black and white letter of the law matter simply said, publicly emphatically, the fbi director is wrong, what would the fbi director do in any other world other than trump world? >> well if we had normalcy, we would have the director offer to sit down in the oval office and explain the law and the doubter intelligence mission of the bureau but we don't live in normalcy. we might have the an fbi director come out and say i want you to understand public and congr
