and trump wants to continue doing it, and is doing it, in support of an international, legally based global order that's informed's nothing like that in there. this is much more transactional. again, it's so 19th—century that vladimir putin could sign up to most of it. and even though climate change is missing from the speech, in fact, we know that many of his own advisers, much of his military leadership, much of the world and many american states, are indeed planning for climate change. that's true, they're planning for it. in fact, unless he follows this up somehow, america is on a path, at least for the next year, to reduce climate emissions even more than germany, which is the leader in the global climate change effort — will do in part because, for many reasons that began with the obama administration, on the ground, people are doing a lot more. but still, that's an area where he'll be criticised around the world, because it's a serious issue. and on tuesday you can watch a special interview with donald trump's national security adviser, general hr mcmaster — who sat down with yalda hakim. their conversati

have you decided to look internally based on all that information? >> absolutely. and i think it's really important to look at this question of what were the facebook ads. remember, there were thousands of ads, among thousands of ads, all of one has been identified. did our votes matter? remember, the votes didn't belong to hillary clinton or donald trump, they had to be earned and a lot wasn't done to earn those votes. also look at the facts, the data. the exit polls show that people who voted green largely would not have come out to vote if they didn't have my candidacy to vote for. so you can't just move green votes into the democratic column. that's a very presumptuous thing to say. the same holds true of gary johnson's votes, many of whom would have gone to hillary clinton as well so there's a little targeting going on because it was very embarrassing to the democratic party once the dnc e-mails were revealed showing that there was sabotage going on. when you talk about interference in campaigns, i think it's important to look at domestic interference as well

i think palestinians that is one of the you know tools to pressure and to announce or to inform the international community that is you know palestinians are not happy with this but this is not enough i mean they need to work with the international community with those who are against the decision to create a new front in a strong and this is what was being said in the last few hours with the europeans to try to have a new front and you know a line of for solutions where basically they kind of confront the decision i think you know the mistake you know showing the and that's that something needed at the moment but it's not enough to put pressure on then mr nation to a pleased to have a balance position to work the whole matter the palestinian president has said that the u.s. is no longer a credible partner. for peace was it ever a critical point wasn't it wasn't i mean everybody knew that surely so this is so this is what i'm saying is this shouldn't come as a surprise absolutely i mean people know that i think it was always always biased towards israel they always supported israeli positions but

it happened within kabul, a district there, we will give you more information as we get it. an internationalo hear the fate of seven children in urgent need of cancer treatment who are trapped in the besieged area of eastern ghouta close to the syrian capital damascus. the union of medical care and relief organizations wants syrian president bashar al—assad to allow them to evacuate the children. they are among more than 130 children needing urgent medical treatment there. 0livia crellin reports. at only two months old, baby karim has become a symbol of the suffering of the 400,000 people trapped in eastern ghouta. karim lost an eye and suffered severe injuries in a reported government attack. his picture has inspired renewed focus on the plight of those trapped in the suburb of damascus which is entering its fourth year, its fourth christmas under siege. the harrowing image of the maimed baby has spawned a social media awareness campaign with many, including the uk's ambassador to the un, matthew rycroft, and the syrian white helmets posting photos of themselves with a hand over their left

today the international committee of the red cross shares some information that from those twenty nine people there are four who couldn't get security clearance from the syrian government even they got the approval for the evacuation so those four people are there will be out and there are some some some devious experiences which wish there is not encouraging they was do not include the evacuees to be not he did not call her show and they are describing we appreciate you joining us the saving from gaza on tap in turkey thank you very much mama tim thank you thank you . an explosion has ripped through a supermarket in the russian city of st petersburg authorities say at least four people were hospitalized with the homemade explosive device was traced to a storage locker but no one has claimed responsibility for the blast which occurred northwest of the city center u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson has expressed concern about the rising level of violence in eastern ukraine during a phone conversation he asked his russian counterpart sergey lavrov to make efforts to lower the bloodshe

kremlin spokesman said that they won't make a decision until they have the official information from the international olympic committee and in fact they said that they might even wait for that decision to come to them in writing so they're sort of biding their time trying to buy time even and the sports minister of. course said that russia will work with any decision that comes but that he hopes the decision will be objective and that the reaction from the russian side should be not emotional but objective as well but he also said that they are prepared to fight a legal battle if there is a ban and the kremlin spokesman. also said that they would protect the interests of russian athletes as much as they can so it's likely that russia would dispute of an how about the athletes themselves only if there is a ban would they be prepared to compete under a neutral flag well it's hard to know i suspect that a lot of them will be hoping that they won't have to make that decision especially since the signals from above have been rather negative when it comes to that option putin himself said that that would b

this information came from an internal review that the post obtained. according to the internal police review, officer trainer and his partner palmer noticed a motorcyclist speeding and running red lights. the two officers pulled sterling over. he was on that motorcycle as trainer was getting out of his car. trainer drove forward and struck the car door. in the review, trainer says his leg was pinned between the door and the car and fearing for his safety, he fired his gun twice. according to the post, after investigators recreated the accident, they found that trainer's description of injuries did not match the incident. >>> federal officials opened a tight al ix investigation regarding the university the post says that the review will examine how the school handled sexual violence. this is the third investigation to be opened this year involving the university. >>> the actress known for playing sally rogers on the dick van dyke show has died. >> rosemarie was 94 years old. she got her start at the age of three. she was active on twitter in the days be

information. so only after internal pressure from some of their colleagues and pressure from the media did these committeese it. as you noted, they did it at 7:00 last night, just minutes after the senate took their last vote for the year. and there was no opportunity for reporters to ask senators about this. you know, the house and the senate seem to be taking kind of different tacts on this issue of sexual harassment. the house seems to be more methodical and apparently more transparent. the senate, their actions don't seem so. i asked mitch mcconnell about it today, what he's doing specifically to address the issue. he said -- he points to legislation being composed by senators gillibrand and senators klobuchar. the senate doesn't seem to be as willing about this, chris. >> it's not even clear what category these are in. like, what actually happened here. isn't that part of the problem? if we're going to say, this money was paid out but we're not talking about exactly what the problem is that's happening within the has of congress. >> the you're absolutely right. and i think it really points to exactly

need for international leadership and whether it's having the right response ahead of the time, after the fact, whether it's getting -- setting ourselves up so we have no further hyper information, we need a gang, if you will. and to gang up against the bad guys, you need to have international leadership and go out there and get the good countries and figure out ways to exercise leverage and bad like north korea and bad like north korea. but never mind, get everyone together. so i will leave it on that note and maybe senator burr can tell us. thank you so much for the panelists. you stepped up to the plate and thank you all for participating.
