world vattel depends on where kiev has the was also is to take on a city as large as don its case and what we know is that they certainly have no moral compunction in killing hundreds of ukrainian civilians for mortars from the tank shells frew airstrikes however what we also need to consider is whether or not washington and brussels who are the backers of kiev whether they would be happy with kiev prosecute in a major offensive against a very very large cities such as donetsk which could bring about. a lot of shit it could result in hundreds possibly even fouls and or civilian casualties so on the one hand we need to consider whether kiev has the resources has the ability the know how to to confront a city in a battle scenario and on the other hand whether washington and brussels would be happy. to do that and i don't mean from a moral perspective because we know that the american government has no moral compunction in scene bloodshed around the world we've seen that in syria we've seen that in iraq but it wouldn't look very good from a p.r. perspective if if their puppets in kiev ov

anybody that is currently being impacted by this, especially in northern hainan, a large city of about,000 people in haikou there at this time are definitely seeing typhoon-strength winds, 140 kilometers per hour, likely much higher than that. gusts are estimated around the center of circulation to be 230 to 235 kilometers per hour. this could cause widespread power outages, flying debris as well, and not just that, but also the heavy rainfall. this is the latest visible satellite imagery. a really circular eye forms in here, and that is clear and indicative of a strengthening and a very strong typhoon. so, we really want to watch closely on this one. it is still expected to track off here towards the northwest across southern guangdong, pushing into northern vietnam, bringing some gusty winds out here but also heavy rainfall. now, by the time this makes its way towards vietnam, i think this is going to be more of a rain situation. we could see some areas as much as 300 to 400 millimeters, even in the hanoi, you're going to be seeing some tropical storm-strength winds, but flooding in

chicago joins at least six other large cities already participating in a federal program that now allows schools and school districts to offer breakfast and lunch at no charge to all of their students if more than 40% of that student body, if their families are approved for snap. cities like dallas, boston and detroit have enrolled in the 4-year-old federal program which recently opened nationwide out of good economic sense as well as moral sense. children were already eating up hundreds of thousands of dollars from school budgets. many of these school systems, a vast majority of students already qualify for federally subsidized free lunch. there are many whose parents make just above the income cap which is 130% of the federal poverty level to qualify. or folks that would be enrolled if the paperwork weren't so daunting. this system removes the paperwork, ensures kids can concentrate on their work instead of their hunger and takes away the stigma of being a free lunch kid. 90% of chicago's school children come from households making $30,000 a year or less. so do 89% of dallas public sch

this city is largely empty at this time. it does not look like a normal city. the streets are largely empty. we saw terrified people bidding farewell to their children, their wives, sending them on the train to moscow, out of the war zone and to safety on monday. again, that underscores the complicated situation here. for example, the train that is carrying the bodies of more than 200 victims of the flight has to cross front lines from rebel controlled territory today to ukrainian government controlled territory. that underscores how complicated this effort has been. this is an active and deadly war zone. christine? >> it is, ivan. does it feel as though it's changed, you are seeing more cooperation? for four or five days of confusion, does it feel as though now with the trains leaving, with the black boxes turned over, ivan, there's a new page here? >> reporter: well, governments whose citizens died aboard the plane have welcomed some of the positive steps. i spoke with the spokesman for the osce international monitors here. he says access improved to the crash

down to san diego, where we actually have this strongest border security, because we've got two large cities, tijuana and san diego, that border against each other. you've got two sets of fences, you've got cameras, motion detectors detecting the tunnels. but we still saw people coming through the ports of entry, asking for asylum. even in the most secure areas, it's still going to take a solution that is far different from texas, where people are just running across the border in the tens of thousands. >> well, the problem is, so many of these children thought over the last couple years that it was okay, that they could go into america and be part of the process. get processed and ultimately become a taxpayer and a citizen. >> absolutely. i mean, this has been a problem for quite some time. but it has reached new magazine attitudes here in the last six, eight months, something the president should be focusing on, because our problem will only get worse in the united states. >> congressman, stay right with us. we've got a lot to talk about with you, jeff denham, but first, we want to break d

mosul is a large city, but it's also now the first time we have had a video with al baghdadi, himselfshowing himself in person, calling on muslims to come and rally behind the newly created islamic state. >> meanwhile, in syria, the islamic state or i.s. is making advances. the free syrian army has lost significant territory to the sunni rebel group. it controls all of syria's major oil and gas fields. in aleppo, the center has been the city of the fighting between surrounded by forces from the e.s. and the syrian government. dozens of indian nurses stranded in iraq during the ongoing fighting have finally returned home. 46 women held for over a week by the islamic state were greeted by family members in southern india brought back on a special flight. the nurses were holed up at a hospital when fighting broke out. the indian foreign ministry has not provided any details about how these women were secured. much instability in iraq goes back nearly 100 years when colonial powers drew their own borders for the middle east, borders that now may be coming apart. patricia sagba reports. >>

in new york and in these other large cities. i don't know what other choice they have. think the police should be there to make those communities safe for the law-abiding citizens who live there. i'm worried about their rights to live and in neighborhoods that aren't full of bullets flying in the air. >> the majority of stops that did not net any -- didn't result in getting guns, mostly small things, marijuana, or what have you -- >> it did send a signal. right now, the thugs know, the cops are trying to do this with one hand tied behind their back. fewer guns coming off the street. and i fear you're going to see a higher body count. i mean, what i say to my liberal friends, how can you be for gun control and against stop and frisk? >> well, because they're saying that stop and frisk is -- it violates your civil rights. your human rights. there's a thing called probable cause. and the color of someone's skin should not be the probable cause. >> that's not what the police say they are doing. what they are doing has been held up as constitutional by the supreme court. so

city in america. it was lester and the year before that and the year before that. san diego, another largeder community, the second or third safest city in america. he need to reject the idea there is crisis and we have a border security issue. we need to rationally and awfully respond to the issues presented to us and that will not involve drones and more border drones. it will not involve the national guard. act, this wasne the bill introduced by john cornyn, a republican of texas. and the congressman of texas as well, that bill will ensure all migrant children are treated equally regardless of their origin. judges would hear cases of migrant children within seven days of screenings. decision on -- of eligibility remaining in the u.s., what happened in 72 hours, it would offer -- authorized the hiring protect -- it requires hhs to part -- to provide protective shelter during the processing. measure does is change is the law that would pass near unanimously in 2008, the trafficking victims protection act for the reauthorization act, passed by both chambers and signed into law by president

the things that i've been interested in is a way we can do something to combat poverty in our large citieswe have a plan, something like jack kemp's enterprise zones to stimulate economic activity and hoping senator booker will take a look at it. >> focus on fixing problems and find lots of allies and it's great to find people on different issues across the aisle. it's been a pleasure to work with not just rand paul but in washington working together, this has been a great pleasure but we have to get it over the finish line. >> you posted a selfie together. >> that was all senator booker. had nothing to do with that. i was sandbagged on the selfie. >> the hill put out the most beautiful people list, you senator paul ranked higher than senator booker. does that sound right? >> my comment on the whole thing, if i got on any list, it must have been a really low bar. i don't know how this happened. >> senator booker? >> i think this is the one part of the interview i will say no comment. >> no comment. rand paul and senator booker, thank you both. you can find more reporting on the criminal ju

places like donetsk which is a large city, and lugansk remains.is one thing to take a city of 50,000 to 100,000 and levels are really digging in. onetzk is city like d where you will see everything coming out. it will be that much more difficult to attack. we talked about the richest man in ukraine who has a lot of factories in the east of the country, saying the central government must not bomb places netsk because it will casualties.ive >> they could apply further sanctions as soon as today on russian individuals. >> this is just painful. it is like when i tell my son i am going to punish him doing something and then i don't, or i punish him in a really mild way heard my son knows when i am doing it. that's what it feels like with the eu. talking about an expansion of the list of individuals that would face asset freezes and travel restrictions. it is not a whole lot, it is not pictorial sanctions. they're just trying to catch up to the u.s.. countries like italy, france, austria, slovakia and others really don't want economic sanctions that aff

>> direct military action to remove the separatists from these two large cities.more likely that the russians would respond to that. can not believe that putin allow the ukrainian government to simply remove the separatists. and overturn the referendum that he himself has said he respects. this has gotten much more dangerous. >> why would the ukrainian rebels have shot down a foreign jetliner? is it a mistake? >> it's very likely to have been a mistake. you are talking about some folks were well-trained. some were not. some of these are russian forces that are volunteering. some of them are very much local ukrainians. many of them are operating with armaments that they have never used before. they have shot down a couple of ukrainian planes. a couple of transports already, one of which led to 90 ukrainian military dead. it is inconceivable to me that they would be targeting a civilian aircraft. that theyeasible would have seen a plane going and hit one by mistake. unfortunately, it seems far too quintessential desk coincidence -- planes are getting shot down. the

it not only affects every large city, it affects my good friend from nebraska's folk. it affects the football stadium and any renovations that might occur there in lincoln. i have been there for a nebraska-oklahoma game. it was an amazing experience. it affects any city that has large gatherings of people and buildings, shopping centers, athletic facilities, colleges. and so it affects almost every state, and that's one of the reasons we have come together and gotten such broad bipartisan support. we must make sure that every reauthorization of the program provides the certainty lenders and developers need to make the kind of long-term investment that our country and that large projects need to stimulate job growth and economic growth, and this bill does just that. that's why it was passed out of the banking committee unanimously. and again, i thank my colleagues particularly on the other side of the aisle. as senator johanns said, maybe this bill -- we say it on each bill where there is some bipartisan support. this one has overwhelming support. can be a model that at

in syria, a sunni state was a large sunni city or large city is probably not very viable. it was at the port on the mediterranean. very problematic. it's difficult -- this is why i say what we're witnessing is the soft partition of syria. none of these units are viable on their own. there will always be a degree of trading, exchange, et cetera, between all of them. i think assad has a pretty realistic vision of what he wants to achieve in the short to medium term. his problem, as i said, is keeping -- maintaining coherence among the various groups that support him. and we cannot take this for a given. we spend our time describing, analyzing and despairing of the fractionallism, the fragmentation of the rebellion. we should spend, you know, an equal amount of time looking actually at the fractionalism inside the regime. i gave you some examples. again, we shouldn't overstate that. but this is a short to medium -- this is a medium-term challenge. the second issue is, look, there is a lot of ebb and flows among rebel groups. a year ago, i gave a presentation, you know, the tw
