what interested will hitchcock and me and what i hope we will engage over the rest of the day is what does america first actually mean? what are the key ingredients of america first? and have these ingredients, these core ideas ,hanged and evolved over time and what are its roots? most interesting, i think, is how did america first resurface after it seems to be crushed, eradicated, destroyed in the wake of pearl harbor. how did it reemerge? course, we should all engage the real question -- should we be worried about america first? should we be worried about this? if so, why should we be worried? where is america first taking this country? importantreally issues -- and what are its implications domestically and internationally? what are the implications for the role of the american government in american life, with the nature of american and for the substance and content of america's role in the international arena. the papers for this conference -- they really are very good, stimulating, interesting, just as will hitchcock and i expected them to be -- as i read these papers, i can se

david: my thanks to mel and will hitchcock and the center for inviting me. what i will do is build in some ways on the first panel and use it as foundation and us into the period between the end of world war ii and the beginnings of the cold war. think about the ways in which america first, not so much as a replicant of that america first committee, but as a notion, a sentiment, a set of feelings, ideas and practical policies plays itself out during this period. a time when it was not clear with the role of the united the world or what role americans should play in a changing dynamic international economy and changing national security profile. whatal is to complicate america first is by honing in less on the kinds of things the panelists are going to hone in on, international security arrangements, united statess role in protecting europe, and instead i will argue what it was central to the belief of america 50's,in the 1940's and and very much in the 21st century, which is what is the role of the u.s. in the international economy? switching role from secur

people still know what hitchcock looks like. that's nice. it's good you can do a joke that worked in 1955 and 2018. pompeo made a bit of a faux pas when, instead of referring to the north korean leader as "chairman kim," he mistakenly called him, "chairman un," which is un-correct, because he was confusing part of mr. kim's first name for his family name. what a blunder for secretary of state, mike. ( laughter ) and today-- it's gentle, it's a gentle joke. we like to throw in, you know, the gentle ones. and today, the senate held a confirmation hearing for pompeo's replacement, c.i.a. nominee, and woman with a dark secret in her gardening shed, gina haspel. she's a controversial nominee because, in 2002, haspel oversaw a secret black site where she presided over what the agency called "enhanced interrogation techniques." come on! haven't we gotten past that phrase? just call it "torture." that's like saying strangling somebody is "enhanced hugging." ( laughter ) now, during her hearing today, she attempted to put her past behind her. >> unde

just to tag onto the last speaker, it feels more and more like alfred hitchcock's real window where things are closgeg closer and closer. i've been a real estate broker for 43 years here in the city. i'd like to address two points: the pop outs and the lack of notice of a pop out. allowing the approval on a -- by over the counter of a pop out disen franchises neighbors from the approval process and from the give and take of negotiations between developer and neighbors. secondly, the problem of notification, lack of notification of a pop out amounts to a disingenuous process between developer and neighbors. a developer can enter into discussions with neighbors about their project and give no inclination as to their addition of a pop out. that's just deceptive. a neighbor can file for a discretionary review and then on the basis of what they thought was the project and then find out after the project commences that there'll be a pop out. is that honest? this is just not right. it -- the problem, also, is that pop outs in themselves have many problems, which you commissioners have recognized
