lehrer: ninety seconds, senator kerry. kerry: thank you, jim. my message to the troops is also: thank you for what they're doing, but it's also help is on the way. i believe those troops deserve better than what they are getting today. you know, it's interesting. when i was in a rope line just the other day, coming out here from wisconsin, a couple of young returnees were in the line, one active duty, one from the guard. and they both looked at me and said: we need you. you've got to help us over there. now i believe there's a better way to do this. you know, the president's father did not go into iraq, into baghdad, beyond basra. and the reason he didn't is, he said -- he wrote in his book -- because there was no viable exit strategy. and he said our troops would be occupiers in a bitterly hostile land. that's exactly where we find ourselves today. there's a sense of american occupation. the only building that was guarded when the troops when into baghdad was the oil ministry. we didn't guard the nuclear facilities. we didn't guard the foreign

you never know, pricing when kerry was doing that. the prices were what i think you can call in the so drastic period. 'd when jurassic period they were 89 percent higher than they are today, we can do much, much more, much faster, to deliver really well the head of any kind of 25th generation. we can begin to tackle this problem in crisis. you know, out at 202530 percent, we need to really push on that. so that when he puts on his team build, john kerry certainly has the contacts. he's well known internationally. but is he, as you say, the right person to move this forward to build on paris? does it depend on who he has working with my guess? well, just has joe biden has said he plans to be a transitional figure in the presidency. i think it's pretty clear that john kerry will have to be a transitional figure in climate diplomacy. the hope is to get us set for the next 101520 years. michael's absolutely right talking about 2050. this point doesn't get us very far and the key questions are about 2030. and that means kerry putting in p

nick, do you think this appointment of a kerry will do that? will ratchet up the campaign to tackle a climate crisis. well, it's from the outside. john kerry is, a great appointment and the pennsic he is positioned in s.c., gives us hope that the us will be rather more joined dots on climate policy at the heart of its foreign policy than we've seen to date. because as the others have sent, it's not just about the u.n. climate agreement. we need climate to be a golden thread through the world bank. the i.m.f. trade talks geopolitics with china. so that's critical, i think for the rest of the world has been getting on with delivering parents for the next 4 years. they want to us that comes back into the fold, but perhaps as part of a leadership group, not as a leader on its own. everybody is comfortable, the paris agreement is a framework inside which we increase ambition and no one is looking to renegotiate paris. the real focus of the next year led by the you can, it really is to get countries to commit to a mall, which was what they promised i

it's a beginning, but kerry, who is their own. it was written, understood from the start that it was the beginning if that. and so if the need quickly to push on to higher ambition, i'm sure he's aiming already for the next conference of the parties that will be a year from now in glasgow and a real opportunity for nations to ratchet up their commitment to climate action. nick, anything this appointment of kerry will do that will ratchet up the campaign to tackle the climate crisis. well, it's from the outside. john kerry is, a great appointment and the pennsic he is positioned in s.c., gives us hope that the us will be rather more joined up on climate policy at the heart of its foreign policy than we've seen to date. because as the others have sent, it's not just about the un climate agreement. we need climate to be a golden thread through the world bank. the i.m.f. trade talks geopolitics with china. so that's critical, i think for the rest of the world has been getting on with delivering parents for the next 4 years. they want

dagen: john kerry has a history, certainly.im, he's former secretary of state, he's now the crclimate czar, the special climate envoy. he was one of the key architects of the paris climate accord and the iran nuclear deal which weakened the united states in myriad ways. general keane, the journal referred to him, the editorial page, climate czar is cat nip for china. he literally sent billions of dollars to a nation that wants still to wipe the united states and israel off the map. >> yeah. i think that's an unfortunate pick given the track history here. certainly what you're referring to there is the iran nuclear deal which came about in 2015 and every major issue you that we put on the table that the iranians didn't like, they threatened to leave and guess what, we conceded every single time. that's why we wound up with a new clear deal that gave the iranians a path hadwaway to a nr weapon, the absurd at this of all of that and nowhere at any time no inspections, a quite extraordinary deal and no restriction on the behavior i

it looks like john kerry is back. he has been named by biden as the first ever special envoy on climate. pete hegseth joins me now with reaction to that and more. what is a climate envoy? >> it's the highest mecca of left wing thinking. a position with no accountability or responsibility chasing after the ultimate mechanism through which they can try to control our lives and use international schemes to do so, surrendering our sovereignty and never holding our adversaries accountable the way they should be. they can pollute all they want even though we have to manage all the controls put on by leftists. chinese can do whatever they want. remember when kerry went to france after the terror attacks and they sang "you have got a friend in me." there is no taking on of real threats. they love enemies that don't have faces like climate change. they can say the end is nye. and we can all virtue signal feeling better about ourselves. the consequential position unleashed by biden, and america doesn't benefit from this one bit

and by naming john kerry our former secretary of state. he was at the table negotiating the paris climate accord. there is a recognition by the biden administration that this is the national security, economic, environmental and moral issue of our time. that's what the green new deal was all about. that's what young people rose up to say to the country, that they wanted action. that's what this decision really says, that joe biden wants justice and that at the same time he wants to ensure that we can create millions of jobs. we can save all of creation by engaging in massive job creation and by putting john kerry at the table. he is sending that signal to the rest of the world. >> you know, kerry's appointment is interesting to me because if we were in a universe in which there were 60 democratic senators and huge house majorities, you might be talking about legislation like the green new deal or something modelled on it. that's not the universe we're in. democratic senators might take those two run-offs in georgia, giving a 50/50 split. e

john kerry coming in to climate, as they say, i've been dealing with john kerry when he was inviting small groups of people over to his house to talk about climate change back in the early '90s. it's always been a passion of his when he was less senior senator. so this is something that's close to his heart. he's been at every climate negotiation that's ever existed and the climate accord, the paris accords which they can re-enter. that's the easiest piece of it as well as, of course, eliminating some of the deregulation that you saw during the trump years. the hardest part is going to be the iran nuclear deal for kerry and joe biden and tony blinken because the sanctions laid on, even though iran has sent signals it's willing and eager. they want more for the buck. they first have to go back to the status quo. they're now doing 12 times as much processing of nuclear fuel for potential bombs. they say they're not building one, but they've broken out in reaction to the sanctions. so there's a lot of work to be done there. but i think working with the allies is the biggest takeaway and

kerry spoke for more than 2 and a half hours. she touched on $200.00 proposals, but of course it was her comments about that wide ranging campaign she wants to conduct to educate better, educate people about the rule of law in hong kong. and like, think will be the real turkey talking point here in hong kong, because what it suggests, kemal, is that the heavy hand, the dead hand, if you like, of the communist party, is going to be felt in more and more areas of hong kong during the coming weeks and months. thank you. adrian brown, in hong kong. america's back. that is the message from president elect, joe biden, as he moves ahead with preparations to take charge in the oval office. he's unveiled, some of his senior cabinet picks, men and women who he says will restore america's leadership in the world. and supporters from shepparton, the president elect biden was unequivocal as he presented his national security appointments and nominees. it's a team that reflects the fact that america is back ready to lead the world, not retreat

the debates between kerry and george w. bush, if i had to rank them on one to ten, i'd gish them an eh. because there wasn't any electricity. there certainly was no charisma. even with that, though,ing kerry came, perhaps, a little bit closer than was expected, because bush-cheney piled up 286 electoral votes to kerry and edwards 251. that brought us to 2008, and that was, again, another election to remember. on the left and interestingly, please note that he has dark hair, is barack obama, and below him that youngster from delaware, joe biden. on the upper right john mccain and sarah palin. the governor of alaska. by the way, something interesting for to you do, which has nothing to do with anything, but take a look at the pictures of the presidents when they were inaugurated and look at them four years later. the changes are -- >> professor -- >> yeah. they age. it is not an easy job by any means and it just takes so much out of you. you know, today barack obama's completely white haired and -- that's not uncommon for tho

i would say this, since you brought up john kerry, joe.wrote, you could easily replace the words "covid-19" with "climate change." one with catastrophic consequences, the other with even greater risk if we don't reverse course. he is wondering in his opinion piece that he penned back in april if you can do for covid what you did for climate change. i think that is worth some questions. >> gillian: everything is, indeed. go ahead, joe. >> joe: this is a symbolic appointment. the bottom line is that all the trillions we spend here in the u.s. to fight climate change, unless you get the three biggest polluters in the world on board -- china, india, russia -- to greatly reduce their emissions, whatever we do over there ain't gonna make too much difference if things don't change on that side of the world. as john kerry, the man, to make this particular nation suddenly change the way they do business? i believe that they are. >> gillian: we've got to leave it there. dagen, will give you more time on the other end. meanwhile, coming up next, repu

and the former secretary of state, john kerry, as special envoy for climate. voted for biden. there's also linda thomas—greenfield as un ambassador — a long—serving career diplomat who was sidelined by the trump administration. good afternoon, everyone, welcome. . . with this team, international leaders know what they are getting — stability and familiarity. but both america and the world have changed in the last four years, and blinken has a lot of catching up to do. let's move on to some other news now, and the british prime minister has warned more areas of england will be subject to tighter tier three coronavirus restrictions when the national lockdown comes to an end next week. 0ur political correspondent iain watson has more. the three tier system of regional restrictions are said to be reintroduced in england on second december. the good news is shops, gyms, swimming pools and hair salons will all reopen, but some rules will be tougher than before nts three, with pubs and restaurants close except for takeaway and delivery. and here, too, pubs can only o

on to other news, hong kong's chief executive, kerry lam has defended beijing's national security law. she said her urgent priority now is to restore order in the territories political system from what she says is chaos. in a speech outlining plans for the coming year said her government will begin a public education program too in hunts the understanding of the rule of law. this is, of course, beijing's law which imposed the national security law in june and high profile opposition activists have since been jailed total nonsense. i hope that through collaboration with various stakeholders, a more targeted public education activities will be carried out, including educating the youth on the proper understanding of the rule of law and promoting their law abiding awareness and research on the rule of law and related data compilation will be conducted with sites through and hands efforts in promotion and explanation to clarify misconceptions and understanding the department of justice will continue to showcase how horrid means a neutral and effective internationally for deal making. and

for president. >> i'm john kerry and i approved this message. >> they had personally raped, cut offagainst the veterans who servedvi in vietnam was jus devastating. >> randomly shot at civilians. >> andd it hurt me more than any physical wounds i had. >> cut off limbs, blown up of bodies. >> that was part of thee, torture was to sign a statement that you hadad committed war crimes. >> raised villages in fashion e reminiscent e of genghis kahn. >> john kerry gave the enemy for free what i and many of my comrades in vietnam took torture to avoid saying. it demoralized us. >> crimes committed on a day to day basis. >> betrayed us in the past. how could we have loyal to him now. >> ravaged the country side of south vietnam. >> >> he dishonored his country and more importantly the people he t served with.boat he just sold them out. >> swift boat veterans for truth is responsible for the content of this advertisement. >> professor mann in the 2004 campaign the famously that last ad called the swift boat ad, what was the origin of that? >> so that was one of four -- at least four spots tha

kerry: mr. president-elect, live up to your expectations and to this moment for our country and the world. i begin by thanking my family for empowering me and encouraging me to take this task on. secretary blinken, we have worked together many years of the foreign relations committee and foggy bottom. it will be a huge pleasure to partner with you again. you will be a terrific secretary. mr. president elect, you have put forward a bold, transformative climate plan. but you have also underscored no country alone can solve this challenge. even the united states, for all of our industrial-strength, is responsible for only 13% of global emissions. to end this crisis the whole world must come together. you are right to rejoin paris on day one and you are right to recognize that paris alone is not enough. at the global meeting in glasgow one year from now all nations must raise ambition together or we will all fail together. failure is not an option. succeeding together means tapping into the best of

look, john kerry's never been a tough negotiator.end into that ridiculous iran deal, and the journal went on to say if he's out there negotiating with china, he's going to come back wearing a barrel instead of clothes, you know? they're just going to take us to the cleaners. so i think this is a bad sign. i think the best we can hope for from the john kerry appointment that is just a lot of preening about climate, so forth, rather than real policy because if he gets into it, i just think it's going to be very expensive for the american people without many real gains to show for it. stuart: i just have to note, bill, that at the moment the dow just hit a new intraday all-time high. you're at 29,955. now, bill, part of that rally is the satisfaction or the -- investors like that we've started the transition, and i think investors like -- >> right. stuart: -- janet yellen as treasury secretary and the stability which that might bring. so reaching back to the obama/biden years is not altogether bad, right? >> no, it's more reassuring. lo
