and no indication tonight that kim can be trusted on any of this. u.s. officials say they know the foreign ministry statement out of the north koreans saying that they will continue to bolster their own program for preemptive nuclear strike potentially on the u.s. wolf. >> barbara, thank you. barbara starr at the pentagon. joining us is democratic senator chris coons of delaware, a member of the foreign relations committee. senator, thanks for joining us. >> thank you, wolf. >> do you believe that being open to ma meeting with kim jong-un is a good idea? >> well, wolf, this is just another weekend of stunning statements by president trump. he compliments president duterte of the philippines for his popularity, and he commends kim jong-un of north korea for his leadership. kim jong-un is a brutal dictator who has directly threatened the united states with an attack by an icbm. i can't imagine what the right conditions would be for a direct meeting between our president and kim jong-un but it would have to include at least north korea abandoning their reck

kim jong un is exceedingly crafty. his regime has become increasingly effective at evading international sanctions. when we make sanctions tougher, they come up with new ways to get around them. phony bank accounts, fake companies overseas, shipments under foreign flags. so we need to go back to the well, to close the loopholes at the re-- that the regime exploits. that's what this measure does. it dials up sanctions on those who do business with the kim regime. hopefully making them think twice before providing cover to one of the most brutal human rights abusers in the world, and the nuclear ambitions of the leader of that country. if you buy certain materials, like metals or minerals, from north korea, if you sell fuel that the north korean military can use, if you have a role in maintaining overseas bank accounts, or ensuring the ships jong pang -- pyongyang uses to evade the law, then you go and get caught up in these new sanctions. if you ignore the u.n.'s limits on importing north korean coal or iron, or try to

was his uncle trying to assume power and over throw kim jong-un and that's why kim jong-un killed him? >> i have no idea. who knows why this guy does what he does. i don't know what the reason was behind this. this is a man who has assassinated generals of his own military using an anti-aircraft machine gun. that is as brutal as it gets when you're going to conduct a purge. so whether he's sane or inseaan this is a man who's very dangerous personally and professionally and you have to take him that way. >> the decision the president made, he phoned the philippines controversial president duterte and invited him to come to the white house. there's a lot of controversy. a lot of commotion. i'm sure that sean spicer is going to be asked a whole bunch of questions about this. given the record, the human rights record that duterte has and some of the comments he's made about the former president and other americans. your reaction? >> duterte is -- he can make a corkscrew look straight. that he should be given the benefit of going to the white house is -- i mean, this is the people's house.

what circumstances would be appropriate for the president to meet with kim?> if north korea were ever serious about completely dismantling its nuclear capability and taking away the threat that they pose both to the region and to us, that there's always going to be a possibility of that occurring. that possibility is not there at this time. >> tonight analyst warn a trump meeting with kim jong-un risks legitmizing a leader who killed, imprisoned and starved his own people while building a nuclear arsenal that threatens the west. >> that helps him further in north korean. strengthens him. damage for south korea, treating this with dismay. >> while mr. trump present the jarring possibility after face-to-face meeting, he says in an interview with fox news how much danger kim jong-un has placed american troops in the region in. >> nobody's safe. who's safe? the guy's got nuclear weapon. i'd like to say they are very safe. these are great soldiers, great troops and they know this situation with 28,000 troops on the line. and they are right there. and so nobody is

but kim is the hero at sawgrass.2nd pga tour victory, the south korean is just the fourth player in the last 25 years to win twice on the pga tour before the age of 22, following tiger woods, sergio garcia and jordan spieth. so here is how the final leaderboard looks. winner kim si woo is the world number 75 but that will change when the new ranking come out. poulter and outshousen tied for second. cabrera bello and american kyle stanley finished fourth. roma spoilt juventus‘s attempt to wrap up the serie a title on sunday with 3—1 victory at the stadio olympico. massimo allegri's men needed only a draw to secure a sixth successive championship. but roma are fighting to secure an automatic champions league spot and are back into second place. here's how the table now looks — juventus are still in control at the top. napoli are still mathematically in with a chance of taking the title after a 5—0 thrashing of torino. italian sports journalist, tancredi palmeri watched roma's victory and says winning the title on sunda

paul: we are back with dan henninger, kim strassel. kim, comey nauseous about all of this.mention that he did intervene in july first to exonerate hillary clinton from a crime for passing along confidential classified information but what else did we learn from comey this week that we didn't know? >> he has handled this so bad all along. he actually try today throw bill clinton under the bus and his former boss attorney general loretta lynch that it was because of their meeting on the tarmac that he was force today act but we did hear a couple of other interesting things come out of this hearing, the top one being the information that huma abedin, hillary clinton's aide had routinely sent classified emails to laptop of her husband anthony weiner and he didn't have any classified access to any of these so there was a lot of questions for republicans about whether or not mrs. abedin ought to be in some sort of account for mishandling classified information. paul: we couldn't prove intent which is -- >> yeah, it's entirely new standard. that is not what the statute said. that'

the president said he would be honoured to meet mr kim under the right circumstances.y worry america's allies. japan has just sent its biggest warship to protect a navy supply vessel, a historic first for tokyo. a short time ago mr trump spoke of the danger posed by north korea to the region and beyond. i can say this. he is very threatening, he is a big threat to the world. how safe our troops in the world. how safe our troops in the demilitarised zone, and our ally in south korea, how safe are they with some of the defence systems we have provided, and what is the status of those? well, nobody is safe. the guy has nuclear weapons. i would like to say they are very safe. these are great, brave soldiers, these are great trips. and we know the situation, with 20,000 troops on the line, and they are right there. so nobody is safe. we are probably not safe over here. if he gets the long—range missiles, we are not do either. so we have to do something about it, and we will see what happens. but whatever happens, a spokesman said a meeting cannot take place right now. we ha

why would he say things about kim jong-un. just listen to the andrew jackson thing and what the momentum seems to be behind this. >> had andrew jackson been a little later, we wouldn't have had the civil war. he was a very tough person but he had a big heart. and he was really angry that -- he saw what was happening with regard to the civil war and said there's no reason for this. people don't realize the civil war -- >> yeah. >> you think about it, why? people don't ask that question, why was there the civil war? why could that one not have been worked out? >> then when this gets called out he tweets this. >> he says president andrew jackson who died 16 years before the civil war started saw it coming and was angry, would never have let it happen. i think he was upset people were questioning his math. but really that wasn't his point. he said that had andrew jackson been later he would have stopped it. >> the question is not the math, david, but why? >> right. he's so enamored of the painting of andrew jackson in the oval off

>> our winner is kim jong-un who craves attention.uld be honored to meet kim jong-un in person and the president's spokesperson said that kim jong-un managed to lead his country forward in both words of praise i don't think he deserves. my losers are the airline industry for reasons we discussed, particularly delta who thinks i'm in fort myers, florida, from the flight they canceled of mine three weeks ago. [laughter] >> my winner is -- everybody needs to watch this video. she is showing off her new prosthetic leg and all of our friends are adorable. the video was posted by bbc midlands, please do not miss this. my losers are the house republicans passing a bill nancy pelosi style to see what's in it. for democrats on the floor talking them with the "goodbye" song, bad all around. >> my winter is jeff sessions for not getting police officers in the alton sterling in louisiana who was armed at the time, by the way, the news agency seems a little bit hesitant to report that fact. -- to appease activists, pandering active -- my loser is

if this smart of that pattern, what does kim jong-un want? >> i don't think it's any longer part of the pattern of his grandfather and his father, so as you correctly stated, in the past, they've gone into this provocation cycle. i've talked about it a lot in hawaii where there's a provocation, there's a negotiation, and it's a concession. peaceful for a while, then the cycle starts again. i think kim jong-un has el investigated to that a cycle of provocation, provocation, provocation. what he's seeking is his own independent -- >> we'll leave this hearing at this point and if you missed any of it, you can watch it in the c-span video library. type "military strategy strateg asia pacific" in the search box at c-span.org. >>> going to go live to capitol hill as we await testimony from former obama administration's sally yates, testifying on russian influns in the u.s. election. she'll be joined by former national intelligence director james clapper. sally yates was fired by president trump earlier for not enforcing president trump's muslim tra

they are supernovas in kim's inner circle. missile tests. >> at some point they are going to put together north korea's intercontinental ballistic missile. >> a missile that will eventually have the range to carry a nuclear warhead to the u.s. mainland. >> translator: kim jong-un is keeping these techo crats right by his side. it reflect his urgency about missile development. >> of the three young men, a former air force general, has the most important role. >> set one that provides kim jong-un with the situational awareness. he is the eyes and ears of for kim jong-un in the development in research of nuclear weapons. and conventional weapons. >> analysts michael madden is consulted by intelligence agencies on north korean leaders. he said kim jung sic is an accomplished rocket scientist. it is believed these three men are in such high esteem they get to rubble bowes with the supreme leader like no one else. >> they do get to travel in kim jong-un ajet and in his car, which is not something other core leaders do. they live in

and kim jong-un hasn't been to see the president of china. to be frank, nobody outside of north korea really knows who he is. but the idea of meeting with -- well, that's not completely out of left field. you remember president obama did that at one point. said he would meet this person, that person and the other. but obviously, every diplomat knows that when you have a major crisis like the one that faces us now, with the nuclear north korea, they have to be the minimum, the maximum of conditions and events and rollbacks by the opponent to get a meeting with the president of the united states. >> obviously, carrots and sticks are nothing new in policy. but to say there can be a major conflict with north korea, and commenting him as a strong leader, kim jong-un, does that make sense to you. >> no. it doesn't make sense to me. being generous, perhaps he is trying to message president xi in one shape or another. it's not going to work with kim jong-un. here's the strange thing. his national security team has done a really good job of running a

that he would be honored to meet with kim jong-un. not surprising considering he said the same thing on the campaign trail. what was surprising for many was the use of the term "honored." sean spicer asked about that and he, multiple times, also asked about donald trump's affinity, it seems, towards authoritarian leaders, and he came back to the same talking point chls clearly understands the threat that north korea poses, even when he was asked about president tuterte to the white house. duterte has been accused of a number of human rights and the suspended drug dealers in his country. we have a lot to break down. we have former congressman matt walsh to talk about it. guys, he is walking a tight rope out there, and going out and using words presidents tip coal don't use. an honor to talk to a dictator. these are not things we're used to seeing considering the u.s. tries to take the moral high ground when it comes to upholding human rights around the world. >> right. >> does he do an adequate job of trying to rein the president in, r

and kim jong-un hasn't even been to see the president of china. to be frank, nobody outside of north korea really knows who he is. in terms of meeting with him, that's not clear. you'll remember that president obama said he would meet this person, that person and another. but obviously every diplomat knows that when you have a major crisis, like the one that faces us now, a nuclear north korea, there would have to be the maximum of conditions and roll backs of their program to get a meeting with the united states. >> seeing that there could be a major, major conflict with north korea one day and dangling a meeting a few days later and complementing him as a very strong leader, does that make sense to you. >> it doesn't make sense to me. perhaps he's trying to message president xi in some way, but it's not going to work with kim jong- jong-un. here's the really strange thing, his national security team has actually done a good job of running a deliberate, measured interagency process on how to deal with north korea. and they have done this since th

journalists are the enemies of the people, but he would be honored to meet kim jong-un. "the lead" starts right now. president trump tells congress to get the quote damn health care bill passed. could this be the week, and does the president even know what's in the bill this time? for that matter, does anyone? president trump today saying he would be honored to meet where north korea's despoddic dictator and that's not the first murderous and maniacal dictator he's opened up to in the past day. and more sexual harassment turmoil at fox. fair and balanced coming up. >>> good afternoon, everyone, everyone. welcome to "the lead." the rules of the senate are designed to make sure that the minority party is able to exert some influence regardless of which party is in charge called the filibuster dating back to the early years of congress. it's part of the american system of checks and balances, but frustrated by his inability to pass any major legislation in congress, president trump is now starting to talk about changing those rules as he threatened during the campaign. >> t

how could e he be honored to meet with kim jong-un? >> the president understands the threat that north korea poses. and he will do whatever necessary under the right circumstances to protect the country from the threat they pose. so he's still the head of state. so there's a a diplomatic piece to this. the bottom line is the president is going to do what he has to do. he's building a coalition in the region to isolate north korea to get the threat to take that threat down. that's his number one priority is protecting this country and our people. >> what do you mean when they call him one smart cookie? >> he went over this in the interview. he assumed power at a young age when his father pass ed away. there was a lot of potential threats that could have come his way. he's managed to lead a country forward, despite the concerns that we and so many people have, he is a young person to be leading a country with nuclear weapons. so that set aside the president recognizes the threat he posed and is doing everything he can to isolate that thr

he is saying that he would be willing to negotiate with kim jong—un directly.ng to meet him, and would be honoured, in fact, to do so. now, the white house very swiftly had to say, well, this is not imminent, and there are no plans to go ahead with this. but it has led to some saying that this sending of different signals, if you like, is rather confusing, and it demonstrates a sort of lack of coherence, as far as the trump administration is concerned, in its dealings with north korea. now, the white house very swiftly had to say, well, this is not imminent, and there are no plans to go ahead with this. but it has led to some saying that this sending of different signals, if you like, is rather confusing, and it demonstrates a sort of lack of coherence, as far as the trump administration is concerned, in its dealings with north korea. that particular word, david — does the north korean leader, who starved and imprisoned thousands of his own people, threatened to destroy the united states — now president trump is honoured to met him, or would be. it is only fair

the president said he would be honored to meet kim jong-un.e said it within days of pyongyang releasing a propaganda video depicting the white house in a bull's eye and the capitol being blown to shreds. how the president can make this statement and say he would be honored to meet kim jong-un really strains credulity. >> there was another note of discord. the secretary who was at mar-a-lago. he said because this all happened during the dinner, of course, with the chinese leader he said it was in lieu of after dinner entertainment which struck a lot of people as odd, to say the least. it was odd also to see this dinner table conversation, missiles being fired. for the cabinet secretary to be in the meetings, to be in the war room or the sit room watching the whole thing unfold as they took a break from dinner and say this was after dinner entertainment. how does that strike you? >> i think it has striking parallels to what president trump said in his first sit-down interview after the strikes. first he forgot the country in which he had launche

he is saying that he would be willing to negotiate with kim jong—un directly. to meet back, and would be honoured, in fact, to do so. now, the white house very swiftly had to say, well, this is not imminentand swiftly had to say, well, this is not imminent and there are no plans to go ahead with this. but it has led to some saying that this sending of different signals, if you like, is rather confusing, and it demonstrates a sort of lack of coherence as far as the trump administration is concerned, in its dealings with north korea. that particular word, david, dealings with north korea. that particularword, david, does the north korean leader who starved and imprisoned thousands of his own people, threatened to destroy the united states, now president trump is honoured to met him, or would be. it is only fair to point out that if barack 0bama had used that phrase, he would be under a republican onslaught for kind of humiliating the us, wouldn't he? absolutely, and you know what? it is controversial language and it has attracted criticism. also, in another inter

facing criticism for saying he would meet with kim jung un and be honored under the right circumstances. we will have the reaction to that just ahead. >> the new and dramatic video from that deadly pool party in southern california giving us a closer look at the chaotic scene. police opening fire at the suspect as he shoots at random. >> new this half-hour, major changes coming to school lunches. >> the new agriculture secretary visited with schoolkids and praised chocolate milk. concerns grow the trump administration is rolling back the initiatives of michelle obama. >> and famous people got fancy at the annual met gala. so, see who went the comfortable route, see who went adventurous route, see who decided to get comfortable on the stairs, show it all to you. you will get to see how we would do as fashion police. >> oh, boy. >> producers putting us to the test on tuesday, may 2nd. >>> from abc news, this is "world news now." >>> always our favorite, favorite, favorite newscast. one of the favorite newscasts of the year after seeing the met gala and all the costumes. >> so much to talk

what should we do about kim jong-un. >> we've should give him a hug. jesse: if we hug a dictator, he will kill us. gentlemen * he -- jesse: fa virks o is entering "watters world" saying liberal are the screwing up america. jesse: you are looking at nuclear long-range missiles courtesy of the air force. although you have don't typically think of muscles when you think of north korea's leader kim jong-un. we did some dig and here are five facts you have may not have known. he loves american things like basketball and nike shoes. even hosting dennis rodman 2013. and he loves to smoke and drink. according to his father, he loves smoking cigarettes and drinking johnny walker whiskey. he likes video games like spierp mario brothers. and selecting north korea's all female music group who debuted in 2012. he's north korea's youngest leader, but oddly, no one knows exactly how young he is. so what do we do with this guy? "watters world" hit the streets to find out. what can we do about kim jong-un? another deck day over north korea? it's a complicated question.

when kim jong on came to power, things changed dramatically.hey are now averaging about 13-15 test per year in this is indicative of a missile development program. north korea is pursuing the development of more than one system. they seem to introduce something new each day. i want to talk about their capabilities, where they are, and then project some timelines and maybe at the end offer some policy prescriptions, but some ideas of what we could and the limitations we have in trying to halt missile development. the scud and no dong missiles were established during the kim jong-il regime. i think they conducted a handful of tests read it was indicative of having received the technology from a foreign source. in this case it was very likely russia. more recently what we have seen north korea do is leverage that existing scud technology. your call last year, they tested the scud er for extended range. they change the materials of construction to lighten it increase the diameter from .88 meters to one meter in this allows it to travel about thousa

least of all, kim jong un. and how would president trump, who has been unable to negotiate the passage of a health care bill with his own party in congress, how would that president have been able to negotiate a way the civil war. joining us now, washington columnist for "the boston globe." she is with the pointer institute for media studies. also with us charlie sykes, editor-in-chief of right wisconsin and an msnbc contributor. indira, the press briefing every day involves a series of questions to essentially what did the president mean when he said or what does the president mean and where does he stand, and every day as sean spicer offers no more clarification of wherever the president had left the confusion point. >> well, in this case where you're talking about trump's position on authoritarian leaders, this is something where president trump has been pretty consistent even since he was candidate trump. he has been consistent in the words he used about himself. remember at the rnc, at the republican conve

just ask kim.e's a chef and owner of the first korean restaurant to earn a star. >> how do you write a recipe when all the ingredients are different. you've heard the taste of the hand, where it's not about specifics in korean cuisine. >> he recently visited dc to host and knows that some of the best recipes are inspired by memory. >> i remember feeling ill as a por ridge and i was like how can i recreate that? >> the chefs have seen the rise in popularity of korean flavors in the u.s. and beyond. >> everyone, you know -- >> lee is referring to the national food of korea. it's fermented cabbage. spicy, pungent and aromatic. these chefs are cooking traditional korean foods with a modern flair. >> we're still staying true to the culture and the ingredients, but you can tweak each ingredient, you know, and in different levels and different ways where you can create a whole new dish. and that to me is really exciting. >> the chefs didn't set out to cook korean food. kim worked at three different french

kim: we have not.t the end of last year, we were one of the few saying the plan expressed by the speaker of the house will challenge us and it has been the case. until the majority party decides whether it will pursue a different path of reform, away from border adjustment, or it will pursue small and large tax cuts, you will not have a lot of action. you have to have a plane of vision first, then you build support. they are at the beginning of the process. david: let me ask you about health care. we got the cbo score yesterday. how does that change the conversation in washington? does it change the timetable for health care reform? kim: i do not think so. what we got from the cbo and the revised score was the fact that they would be people who would lose health care and while they would be savings, it would be meager compared to the rest of the entitlement spending or just health care spending. the overall challenge of reconciling the books in washington, what we spend versus revenue, it was not affec

kim jong-un is different. it irritates the chinese leaders. the confucius society of respecting our seniors and elders, they expect that. he is like a renegade, arrogant teenager that refuses to talk with them. nuts.ives them it should. he is their neighbor and they have been his protector for many years. be so disrespectful and unengaged from the chinese leadership, it is not helpful for them and is concerning. that is why they are willing to challenge and now, when in ways they weren't before, or challenge his father. host: in 2013, a story looking at the ship held by north korea, ueblo, a u.s. electronics ship. virginia,o dan in democrats line. caller: can you hear me? host: go right ahead. caller: i thought it was disturbing enough when we found chinese parts in the ocean where north korean rocket crash landed . it is disturbing because china is undermining our economic partnership with them militarily. howhe event of a conflict, ?hina will react economically if they will cut off food supplies to north korea and military equipment? guest:

out, you're going to embolden north korea, kim jong-un. i'm concerned about it but if it does work, i think there's a clear message. bottom line, trump's rights. we need china to get on board fast. >> eboni: in this tweet, very deliberate coming from president trump saying what is disrespectful to you, china. you are trying but is eric right? does china need to try harder? >> ben: that's why donald trump is no longer calling them a currency manipulator. north korea and kim jong-un becoming bombastic, much more -- that's why what happens north korea is so stabilizing what donald trump did regarding nato. we need our allies more than ever before and i understand we pay over 3% of our gdp. we need our allies to know where we are coming from.

jong-un or his father kim jong-il when he was alive.it is difficult for us, and we learn about it when ut okit occurs. >> what about the possibility of a cyber attack that we were rumored to use in iran and elsewhere, and is north korea in any way vulnerable to a bug or some other kind of scyber attac that has been used in the past? >> well, "the new york times" reported that the united states had employed scyber sabotage against north korea, and there is no firm indication that we have done that, and also, there is no firm indication of succ s success. but i suspect that we have indeed tried it. north korea though, because it is isolated is much less vulnerable to cyber attacks than for instance the united states is. so, if it is something that has been successful, it is a feat, but nonetheless, a cyber attack, and cyber sabotage only works to slow down the program, and it is not going to end the program. it is only going to give us more time to settle what has been very difficult, and which no ed a ministration a has found the keys to

donald trump says he would be "honored" to meet kim young them -- kim jong-un under the right circumstances. yes, sit down and talk face to face. this comes on the same day japan is sending warships to the korean peninsula to protect the u.s. air ships already there. pyongyang says it will continue missile tests in the face of what it calls u.s. aggression. >> mayday in john yang, another opportunity for the regime to stage a -- in pyongyang, another opportunity for the regime to stage a demonstration of military prowess. pyongyang says it intends to speed up the pace of its nuclear program. north korea's repeated missile tests are alarming its neighbors, including japan. japan sent a naval warship to escort and protect a u.s. supply ship. the move is symbolic. it is the first time japan has involved itself in an operation of this nature since the country moved away from its purely defensive military doctrine last year. it is exactly the kind of proactive behavior washington wants to encourage and its allies, as mike pence has stressed. mr. pence: the president has been very clear. whether

how did kim kardashian's kids help kathy griffin out of a bind? >> i need two babies right now. she was like, i'm on it. >>> plus, your "insider" bonus. >> five, six, seven, eight. >> what could keep simone biles and sasha from dancing gold? >> not that i hate it, it's just like, ugh. >>> and -- inside the 90210 reunion turned feud? which costar did tory spelling and jenny garth just put on blast? >> we know her, which we don't speak of. >> "the insider" tracking hollywood from the inside out. >> a year after ryan seacrest signed off "american idol" for now, reports say the show's return is full steam ahead with ryan and his new network. it's the number one tracking story today. >> this is big news. >> yeah, it is. >> so many questions. so, who better to get all the answers from ryan, or, at least try to, than his new "live" cohost, kelly ripa. >> let me start by saying, i like it. i like it a lot. and i'm hoping that this is true. that abc gets close to a deal for "american idol" return. okay -- i think this has to happen. are you going to host it? please tell me yes. >> whatev

now talking about, honored relating to kim jong-un. if he ends up winning by a squeaker, people will say trump got him elected. >>> what is the implication of that? how important is south korea as a u.s. ally? >> absolutely important. nothing good ever happens with south korea and washington have different policies on north korea. in the laugh years, there was no daylight between seoul and washington. now there will probably be an enormous gulf and trump will have to work enormous diploma stoi manage that. it may not even be possible. the last thing we want to do is elect someone who doesn't like us. >> i want to and but the missile test. we're calling it a failed test. it didn't reach the sea. you're saying this may not have been failed. >> this may have been a test of just the first stage motor maybe the separation of the first and second phases. when they do, they put a ballast in the second phase. if it were in the sea, we could recover it. this was designed probably to fail over north korean territory. >> and that's an issue. we d

during the election campaign, donald trump said he might be willing to sit down for a burger with kim. but he dropped that notion of burger diplomacy after the north korean leader declared he was working on a missile powerful enough to hit the united states. you do you have to do, and you don't talk about it. so when people say — i was asked a question yesterday, exactly when would you go in? at what time would you go in? i mean, it's ridiculous. i don't want to talk about it. i can say this. he's very threatening, he's a big threat to the world. how safe are troops in the demilitarised zone, and our ally in south korea? how safe are they, with some of the defence systems we have provided, and what is the status of those? well, nobody is safe. the guy has nuclear weapons. i would like to say they are very safe. these are great, brave soldiers. these are great troops. and we know the situation, with 20,000 troops on the line, and they are right there. so nobody is safe. we are probably not safe over here. if he gets the long—range missiles, we're not safe either. so we have to do somet

what do we know about kim and the reason why he was detained? >> kim hak song is said to be about 55 years old, arrested and charged with crimes of hostility against the state. we're given to details from the state news agency on what that exactly means or what the focus of the investigation is. kim had been teaching at the pyongyang university of science and technology. he was not a professor who taught students in the classroom, rather he was an instructor of agriculture who was working at the experimental farm at the university. this, of course, brings to four the number of americans that are being held and just two weeks ago, tony kim also teaching at that same university was detained on similar charges as he was trying to leave the country. so it now turns the attention to the question of whether kim jong-un is playing hostage diplomacy, whether he's detaining americans to initiate some sort of conversation or dialog with washington where the trump administration would feel compelled to send a high-level envoy to pyongyang to resolve the si

. >> earlier we had jack keane commenting on whether he thinks president trump would meet with kim jongoon. >> i think that's always a possibility with this president. he puts huge amounts -- his ability to make a deal. they have accomplished that. what president trump is trying to get them to stand down from is advancing the weaponization of ballistic missiles. that is what he is trying to do. get them comfortable. say look, we are not coming after you. you are going to stay in power as long as your people are wanting to keep you in power. i don't know if that relaxes kim or not, frankly. >> greg, a meeting with the president would be something that might lift him up. it might give him attention or it could be a way to scare the chinese into thinking they need to do more in order to help us so we don't actually meet with him one on one. what do you think the strategy is? >> i don't think it's a new strategy for donald trump. he turns unpredictability into a pattern. he starts with a pattern. you don't have to be smart to be a tyrant. as a dictator you can just kill your enemies. it's t

but first, let's check in with economist andy kim, who has made a career out of studying c.e.o.'s. in intriguingly quirky ways. >> so you're gripping this horse, right? >> reporter: oh, the reins.... now, a few of you might remember andy kim, teaching me, two years ago, the equestrian dance move in the hyper-viral video sensation gangnam style, part of his off-beat research showing that c.e.o.'s who become visible, for whatever reason, can see their stock price rise irrationally. well, he presented his brand new research, not yet published, at this year's annual economics convention. his latest hypothesis is as off- beat as ever. >> there is a strong linkage between your facial masculinity and your risk taking behavior. >> reporter: kim is now exploring a possible link between c.e.o. risk taking and the hormone testosterone, which, starting with mid-19th century experiments on roosters, has been linked to male dominance and aggression throughout the animal kingdom. but how do you measure testosterone in c.e.o.'s with little time and, probably even less inclination to give korean as

so to say we're honored to meet with president kim, is not a right message.gree, let's work with the man where we can, try to find a way to use diplomacy and defies his crisis, but words matter. when we say things like a smart cookie and honor him that is problematic. >> well, the reality there is is no easy solution to north korea problem. if we got into a north korea conflict there could be millions of deaths in south korea, there has to be another option, perhaps is north korea sees it can't get aid from nuclear program it would agree to serious negotiation, i mean an air tight deal. if there is a meeting 20 trump and kim, an air tight deal, i have never seen a deal like that with north korea but it would be required. charles: i hear, but it is a better alternative to all out warfare. >> thank you. charles: good night, folks. lou: there will be no government shut down. congressional republicans and democrats have reached agreement on a trillion dollar spending bill funding the government through september. bill however oh oracle mitt -- omitts money for a

it bolsters his credibility kim's, at home and internationally.f anyone can do it, it can be president trump. >> bob, you have a lot of different experiences on the international stage. was north korea a factor back then, in the 1800s? >> it was 1823. >> i know. in the '70s. [laughter] >> he might as well be negotiating with ronald mcdonald. those plastic things. this guy is a tyrant. he's a thug. the idea that the presidentan of the united states would go and talk to this dirty, ugly man who has killed people left and right, put them in gulags. human rights abuses. what are we talking about? he's the president of the united states. i don't like donald trump but i would like him a lot less if he did something like that. i if this happens, other companies trying to develop nuclear weapons. they could get rewarded too. >> it has already been happening with iran. >> and we will give you a lot of money. and you will cheat on us, and we will be okay with it. >> you're okay with giving this guy a stage. >> you know what i think it's interesting? there's

opening a door to a meeting with dictator kim jong-un. if it would be appropriate for me to meet with him, i would absolutely. i would be honored to do it. no sitting president has ever met a north korean leader. >> this is probably the most brutal dictator in the world and it would elevate his status well beyond what's deserved. >> reporter: president trump crediting kim jong-un for being a survivor eliminating rivals including his uncle. >> so obviously he's a pretty smart cookie. >> reporter: mr. trump defending his white house invitation to another brutal leader, the president of the philippines. who could help the u.s. isolate north korea even though he is widely condemned for ex-cuting people in his own country. >> there is a huge aspect into this. it's a balance. >> reporter: the president also creating confusion at home, misstating one of the key changes of the republican health care plan with a vote as early as this week. >> preexisting conditions are in the bill and i mandated it. i said it has to be. >> reporter: in fact, the l
