i will ask the former director of the cdc, tom friedman. >>> also, beirut, the bustling and beautiful city by the sea was hit by an extraordinary explosion. as the political tragedy of lebanon finally reached its heart-rendering rock bottom? i will explore. >>> but first, here's my take. this week the trump administration explicitly announced its intention to work towards a new bipolar world of technology carved up between the united states and china. it announced a sweeping clean network initiative which seeks to ban virtually all chinese i.t. products, phone carriers, apps, cloud service, even under sea cables. then trump issued executive orders officially banning the chinese video app tiktok and the messaging app wechat from operating in the u.s. unless they are sold by mid-september. taken together these moves suggest a reversal of decades of american policy. instead of favoring a global internet of open systems, open architecture and open communications, the u.s. now envisions a restricted internet that is cordoned off by governments will political considerations dominating econo

thomas friedman and mr. bernard henri levy. >> thank thank you, masha. >> thank you. >> it's so great to be with you. the timing of your book and this conversation couldn't be better. i'm seeing the participants climbing as we sit here and that's a great credit to you and the number of people who want to share your insights. i thought maybe we would begin by just asking you to summarize what, take, five, seven minutes as you like and maybe come back with my own take on the pandemic, and then let's iterate back and forth and see if we can drill down to a real vein of understanding for all our listeners here. bernard, over to you. >> thanks. great pleasure and grateful to have a discussion with you. for me it's a treat. i'm very happy of this occasion. to make a summary is difficult but what do i mean by the title? let's start this way. which is translated in a slightly different way than american, "the virus in the age of madness" in french i said this a virus that makes us mad. there are two sorts of madness

syria unknown to have been part of the germ od community of jews most in the town of real clara friedman stuff i lived there for while others like same crew for just pass through i see new people disappear. people i notice some belong to a real car all it would come in there was stay there for a week or 2 and then a disappear and the people in in the do even know they're leaving because if you go into syria to fight a war which. of course you would want to go silent you would want to tell your shadow bigger you don't want to be caught ashmead. says someone tried to recruit him to i remember clearly one night a broad telling me. that he is considering going to syria and i should also go he said go courageously in to jihad. 9 with some bullet in your chest in your head in cause. if you die in that position it's the most honorable that you can get according to islamic teachings this is why you see so many people just rush into syria and will not investigate here fully. i said no i don't think i need. to go to have one. yet others came very close to read my stuff and for my house made a mosq

obviously tom friedman is not a big fan of president trump but he acknowledged in a very big way thatre was a huge accomplishment but he talked about the howling wind of change that he hoped would happen. that would mean a similar deal with saudi arabia, we've heard that those are in the works. when do you believe that those will happen and do you believe they will happen? >> martha, it's great to be with you. any morning you wake up and find an unqualified endorsement of your policies and the trump administration, you know it's a good day and that was a great deal. it was really quite an accomplishment. it took a lot of courage for those men to come together and bring peace to their countries. we are going to have with, mohammed bin zayed's name, it was a historic event, i was glad to see that tom friedman recognized it as such. i've been on calls with leaders, jared kushner has, secretary of state pompeo is working on this we are all taking steps to work with the momentum that we've g got. and turn this into the howling wind that tom referred to. >> martha: i hear jared kushner talk

which i never thought i would see president trump being endorsed by thomas friedman on this deal andacious and others, and the only two people wereç the we s stayed in it. >> want to move to the issue of russian interference. it was an alarming thing that the dni put out that russia is actively still involved in trying to denigrate the democratic campaign in particular. the president likes to say and you have said that this administration somehow has been tough or russia than the last administration. let me ask you this, if you have then why is it a policy failure that russia is still interfering in our elections? >> well, i think the dni report was reallyefore is it details t the influence and the efforts of china and of iran to denigrate president trump and to make sure that he's not re-elected. it also talked about the russian interference. as i said and the president made very clear, we're against every foreign party trying to get

tom friedman.good to see you, young man. >> good to be with you. >> so what is the obvious move right now? >> well, you know, chris, i've been waiting for this move for a long time. if i were advising the president, the administration, i would simply tell him to call up putin and tell him the following. if we catch russia in anyway, in any place interfering in our election, between now and election day, we will throw out your ambassador, close your consulate and break off relations. if you attack our elections, you are attacking the most valuable thing we have. and frankly, we're happy to cut relations with you. all you make is vodka, carvier and nesting dollars. you are nothing but a third world country with nuclear weapons. we will never let you interfere in our elections ever again. which part of this sentence don't you understand. >> can we do that? can we stop them from interfering? and two, do they care about those strong words. >> yeah, i think they would care if we closed their embassy, clo

>> i agree that rates could rise but i do not agree with milton friedman.ize of the balance sheet, that we have seen around the ifld, that is assumed that this is going to be inflationary ultimately. the markets are not positioned for that. but the way they are not positioned is not so much that there will be inflation that is out of control, but there will be more inflation than the markets expect. there is a big gap between inflation expectations as measured by the market and inflation expectations measured by the market, the labor market and the product market. world is very macro. the way we see inflation works is can workers get wage increases? the answer is pretty much no. two firms feel like they can raise prices? the answer is pretty much no. you do not have inflationary impetus coming through those kinds of micro foundations. ,hat the market pricing financial market pricing of inflation as well -- way below 1%. question here on international economics. i know your wonderful map behind you with latin america over your right shoulder. what is the fra

i never thought i would see president trump being endorsed by thomas friedman on this deal and david ignacius and others. i think the only people who were against the idea were the ayatollah and ben rhodes. this happened because we got out of the jcpoa, not because we should have stayed in it. >> i want to move to the issue of russian interference. it was kind of an alarming thing that the dni put out that russia is actively still involved in trying to denigrate the democratic campaign in particular. >> yeah. >> the president likes to said and you have said that this administration somehow has been tougher on russia than the last administration. let me ask you this. if you have, then why is it a policy failure that russia is still interfering in our elections? >> well, i think the dni report was really terrific, and what the dni report did, which has not come out before, is it details that the influence and the efforts of china and of iran to denigrate president trump and to make sure that he's not re-elected. it also talked about the russian interference. as i have said and as the p

but tom friedman wrote the editorial. it's very fair, it's true. couldn't believe it. it's got great reviews from everybody. "wall street journal," "washington post." can you believe that when? we couldn't have done that deal had we stayed in this horrible deal done by john kerry, who had no clue as to negotiation. they would tell him, "we want this, we want this, we want this." sometimes you have to get up and walk. once he rode his bicycle, remember? he was an accident. [laughter] i promised, at 73 years old, i said, "i'll never be riding a bicycle." [laughter] yet the helmet, names, insignia for us all over. insignias like he was a 20-year-old great cyclist from france. [laughter] that delayed him about two months. they said, "he just got hurt and a bicycle accident." it's not a good accident. i might get hurt, but i'm not getting hurt riding a bicycle.

major legislation like the civil rights act of 1860 six, which extended citizenship rights to the friedman. and then, subsequently, constitutional amendments like the 14th amendment which guarantees citizenship. the bill of the 15th amendment guaranteed voting rights. and then a series of reconstruction acts that divided the south into military districts and gave power to union generals to run those districts politically, to set up elections and to ensure that african-americans could come to the polls under the new laws and amendments that have been passed. farar: in the house collection, we have a number of images, tsince mostly -- prin mostly. this scene in 1866 outside the gallery. there is great jubilation. we have some from the passage of those amendments you are talking about. in all of them people seem really excited and delighted at this level of progress. it is certainly being portrayed in the public eye as something that is wonderful, great and terrific. it's it's sort of a lag of a few than states being able to elect african-american -- african-american members? matthew: what is

things that it can not only the theory but they can actually see what is going to happen in the friedman for example i tell you that if you want to go until the field where you have install solar panels you want to see where the whole of the sun late falls on it how much energy is produced how much power is coming out how much load you can add a task to it that we can do here we can simulate a similar situation by using high power bulbs which in a way what lake you know artificial sun. and you near appreciate bungling develop the labatt agrees he and his company eco sens have been the specializing in clean energy solutions for 10 years time and again the discovery that it was hard to find personell to handle the technology so the idea of the learning get bothered is this bomb. if we and it was too many people would most all energy then everyone will be elected and the villages will be electrified and and then you will reach 2 of them or this all the place in the country and paris will and it is very very cost competitive and come back to them sort of them up plan so everyone can adopt it

taking friedman's your own hands for yourself on the environment that's all from the tree to success especially during this difficult times and today's edition of the who africa we will introduce you to a lot of different people who are doing just that with various initiatives to help me and bob welcome to the show i'm now outside we're coming to you from lagos and i'll be saying a big hello to my colleagues around in combat hello sandra thank you mia to a one welcome for me sundra to no video here in kampala uganda you are absolutely right near to on the topic we'll meet the messiah in kenya diverse in egypt and so much more here's what you can look forward to in the next half a mil. we show you the potential for one big data to protect the environment. you also learn about how designers and spain are recycling old material into cheap fashion. advice a used to grow delicious mushrooms in ghana. but must we have a look at an easy as a no then does it where the effects of climate change are increasingly not civil in the area around on the so it is dusty. it is getting harder for farme

. >> we're joined now by "the new york times" columnist thomas friedman. he's the author of the book "thank you for being late: an optimist's guide to thriving in the age of accelerations." thanks very much for joining us. the president just said he has a lot of respect for dr. deborah birx, but over the weekend, she became the most recent member of the white house coronavirus task force to draw the president's ire. we saw that tweet in which he suggested these pathetic simply because she was telling the truth how this virus is spreading, going from urban areas to rural areas. i wonder what you think of that. >> well, you know, wolf, it's just another day of disturbed and aberrant behaviorally the president. i've been listening to the show. i listened to the president's news conference, and it just reminds you, wolf, there's really just one thing. it's the virus. if you get the virus under control, the economy will bounce back. people will go to restaurants. school will start again. we won't need the bailouts we need. and the problem is the president, from

while driving around the city of shotgun as they found their tongue and this is the corner where friedman staff and shane crawford carried out their killing it's a spot well known for trouble. that jumped out of a car and broad daylight and shot dead dead 2 victims within weeks both were in syria. the fear is that i still recall it and has been feeding of trinidad's gang was some. of the feuding guns drawn them was in my identity and i closely associated with mosques. we had to enterprise on the outskirts of child line and wishing crowfoot grew up. violence surged and to prise in july 26th teen after the murder of cell intellects also known as robo calls. to all this died at the scene including the killer. alex's was never convicted of any crimes but he was widely believed to be the good father of a local museum day after his killing some form of associates set up their own gang but they became known as unruly isis. from out on the farm. we are in a foreign object *. it is friday and i'm really isis have agreed for us to join them so pray 2 degree of this accused of a series of killings a

[applause] even john friedman of "the new york times" gave us an a+. can you believe it? he couldn't believe it. i won't say he has been a big fan, but "the new york times" gave us the best editorial i have ever had. i can't believe it. i'm surprised. i'm sure they have changed it by now. somebody got in and said, who wrote that editorial? they probably lost their job. but tom friedman actually wrote the editorial. and it was fierce. i couldn't believe it. it has got great reviews from everybody, "the wall street journal," ", the washington post" and we couldn't have done that deal if we'd stayed in the deal under john kerry who had no clue about negotiation. he said what about this, what about this, what about this, and he would sit there and agree to everything. sometimes you have to get up and walk. he never walked. he did once. he rode his bicycle and he was in an accident. i promised, at 73 years old i said, i will never be riding a bicycle. he had the helmet with his name and insignia all over, he likes insignias like he was a 20-year-old great cyclist from france.

which extended, citizenship rights to the friedman. and then subsequently, constitutional, like the 14th amendment which guaranteed citizenship rights. and the 15th amendment which guaranteed voting rights. then a city series of reconstruction acts, that divided the south and military districts, and gave power to union generals to run those districts politically essentially. set up elections and ensure that african americans could come to the polls. under the new laws, and amendments that have been passed. >> in the house collection, we have a number of images, prince falsely from news weeklies. example here's one right here, from 1866, the scene outside the gallery of the passage of that civil rights act. that's what we're talking about in 1866 and it is great jubilation. we have some of the passage of those amendments that you're talking about. and other civil rights act. in all of them people seem very excited, and delighted at this level of progress. so, it's certainly being portrayed in the public eye as something that is wonderfu

tom friedman in a very nice thing to say about us. he thought it was terrific. i see a lot of countries coming in fairly quickly. and when you have the mullen, ultimately iran will committed to pretty normal people peace in the middle east. iran will be very much neutralized . he never thought this could've happened. and with a horrendously stupid iran deal signed by obama read this could've never happened. reporter: on the goodyear issue. what about the tires. if there were an alternative, would you want those tires swapped out . pres. donald trump: i would swap them out. a lot of people not wanting to buy the product anymore. i from a competitor. made in the usa two. okay . reporter: from obama, democratic convention. he says that helps you would take being a president more seriously. and reverence for democracy. what is your reaction. pres. donald trump: when i listen to this and see the horror that is left us, the stupidity of the transactions that he has made. look what we are doing. we have a brick border wall, security, a universally praised by people tha

can you imagine, tom friedman had a nice thing to say about it.e thought it was terrific and it was terrific. i see a lot of countries coming in quickly, and when you have them all in, ultimately iran will come into -- come in too. they would be peace in the middle east and iran will be neutralized. with that horrendously stupid , thiseal signed by obama could have never happened. goodyear issue, you ride on goodyear tires. if there were an alternative would you like them swapped out? pres. trump: i would swap them out, we will see what happens. we have a lot of people not wanting to buy the product anymore and they will buy from a competitor, made in the usa. the excerpt from obama's speech says that he would hope that he would take being president more seriously once you had the job, and then he what ist he never did." your reaction? pres. trump: when i look at that and then see the horror that he has left us, the stupidity of the transactions that he made, look at what we are doing, we have our border wall, we have security, we have the uae dea

with the trump transition was jared kushner and the national security advisor and ambassador david friedman who are symbols of the president today and devoted themselves for a very long time. to reorder the middle east for peace and prosperity to stem the tide throughout the world. the decision in the fighting of an agreement is an important foundation with a very big goal. it isnd so clear and straightforward many thought it would be impossible. but another foundational building block put in place today and it is a historic moment. shannon: i know you have been in communication with key players connected to this what could it mean for the rest of the middle east as it comes together?ge >> it is historic and a game changer we didn't have an arab-israeli peace deal in 26 years since the king of jordan 1984. this is huge. talking to from jerusalem it is electrified and i will tell you the uae count on - - crown prince and invited me to bring a delegation of evangelical christians to meet with him 18 months ago. we sat in the palace in abu dhabi to our off the record conversation but i can tel

and these are max friedman and his friends down in the village. max believes that women should have the vote because it will make them better lovers. it will -- you know, there will be an equalizing of gender roles, and women will stop being silly and men can stop being profligate. and they might get to a better relation. floyd dell was another of his friends there who thought that women -- that the woman's movement, really the feminist cause, would liberate men. >> not to have to work. >> because they wouldn't have to work, that there wouldn't be an obligation on their shoulders to support women and children. and they are quite enthusiastic. max friedman calls suffrage the great fight for freedom in my lifetime. so, this is at a time of all these isms. he's saying suffrage is the main cause here. and but say soon lose -- i don't want to say they lose interest. but they leave the league. they start to leave the league by about 1912. max says that he prefers a cause where you can suffer a little for the good. and by 1912 is getting very main stream

it's really kind of tough friedman us to even find back against that large of a monster deal. but i do have to complement the democrats on a very good way that there cutting off the republicans totally. it's really nice. more riots, the rope protest everything on the more like life skipped, and the want to donate to the democratic party. that's just an amazing engineering. bob: let me ask you about the campaign spending. the wall street journal, the trump campaign taking a break with tv ads. they reported their in the wake of theep change, the head of the trump campaigns, there's also an indication the president retooling is message to voters. what are you hearing. leah: number one. i want to talk about active loop for just a moment. i believe there's a bit of a misunderstanding about what the does.rm actually it's not an organization in of itself. as a platform for democrats. and for digital fundraising. what we are saying on republicans, on the spending is to tryg to figure out with this whole action was like. a few months ago, like donald trump needed to invest in al qaeda,

others like nasdaq's id to friedman have been rumored. this is a name game at this point.tion is that these big spots don't come from wall street, but as you know there is always that hope. vonnie: thank you. be sure to tune in leadeth this afternoon when presumptive democratic presidential nominee joe biden and kamala harris delivered their first remarks since the historic announcement. it will be live from wilmington, delaware just before 4:00 p.m. eastern. meantime, online education company k12 reported earnings last night that eat on the top and bottom lines. the company reported a 50% increase in volume or enrollment applications compared to the same period last year. joining us now is james rhyu, k12 president. however you had to change, if at all, you are learning models to adapt to coronavirus? scarlet: we are really fortunate. -- james: we are really fortunate. when the pandemic broke out our schools remained open. we have been doing online learning for years. we have over 6000 teachers and they have been trained in online learning techniques. for us it was busine

we have ambassador to israel david friedman here. we very much -- she would agree this is a big day for israel and a big day for the world. thank you, david. you have been fantastic ambassador and representative of our country. the deal that was reached will allow muslims to have far greater ability to visit any historic sites in israel and peacefully pray at the al lawson they wanted to have access to for many, many decades. this is a monumental step to forging ties of cooperation in the middle east. i think he will have other countries come forward. they want to make a deal. peace in the middle east will be fantastic. israel is suspending settlements in the west bank, which is a big deal. a bold step towards achieving peace. they agreed to admittedly expand and accelerate scientific collaboration to develop effective treatments and vaccines to defeat the china virus. they have both been hit. virtually every country has been hit. to save lives in the region and the world they are working very much on the vaccines also with us. again
