so what is the reaction rosalyn to madis leaving earlier than had planned well tarin there is a real sense that the wheels have come off the trumpet ministration or more of specifically that the white house is trying to run foreign policy and military strategy itself and that it is it just doesn't care what people at the agencies in this case at the pentagon have to say about the way forward for the united states there was already a lot of consternation on capitol hill both from democrats and from republicans that jim madison even decided to walk away and leave his post in the resignation was announced on thursday this is not going over well because there is raising a very real concern that the ministration may be taking the united states into a place where the u.s. perhaps does not want to be and that national security interests may be jeopardized as a result and what about patrick shanahan the man who going to replace jim mattis one of the views on how he will be running the department. well it was a bit of a rough haul for him to even get confirmed in the first place when he first

interagency process madis was the lone holdout on an effective policy or iran on iran in iraq and syria madison mcgirr with voices it's a new one is not a problem let's not let's not be worried about the warmth let's just simply focus on the focus on the defeat of weiss and that's just not a sound policy when it comes to iraq and syria where one is able to do whatever they want ok we have to leave our conversation there michael pietsch and thank you so much for joining us here on al-jazeera. now just two days after the announcement of a u.s. troop pullout by donald trump there are reports the turkish army is sending soldiers to the border with syria president the one who threatened to strike y.p. g. targets inside northern syria many fear the u.s. pullout from syria could lead to a power vacuum on the ground zero order reports now from the turkish syrian border . these syrian refugees have been living in this turkish border town for three years they say they can't return home as long as their towns and villages are controlled by the syrian armed group the why peachey while fighting eise

well i think it's secretary madis that said at an event at the u.s. institute of peace that the coalition could continue a certain amount of excited cities without the refueling support that the united states was providing i think the impact would more be felt in the court of public opinion if the u.s. were to cease its support of the coalition it would be a powerful signal that the united states believes that it's time to push for a peaceful resolution of the conflict it also all of these discussions more and give leverage to the u.s. executive branch to go to the saudis and other members of the coalition and say look the congress may force our here and we need you to work hand in glove with us to try to push for a diplomatic solution and that may very well have helped to break the logjam and get get things to talk so you know that certainly the saudis and iranians would have been involved in trying to help create the environment for participative down at the table and freedom so even the discussion of the kinds of steps that are being contemplated h

there any possibility that for their survival they would have to be open to the opposition in some way madi opposition figure he is back in sudan is there any chance of that ever happening. i think that. i for me the government has already fallen from what i look at at the moment there has never been even in the. sixty four and eighty five there hasn't been this level of uprising i mean you knew only a week and there was. the with as i said a few in the in the outside but they were not the pressure now we have people really in revolt. and so what the government is doing now at the moment to survive a shoot at people so more victims and this more anger in the people. this is if this continues then we are facing a very dark scenario already in this evolved there is a hint of populism. the voices from many from young people angry sometimes from the periphery all of them don't want to have to this not only in the government but also in the opposition more tweets and facebook attacks on the and the other opposition leaders than the government or no it's not equal so we are the people there is no

take over from james mattis on january the first donald trump announced the change in a tweet pushing madis from office two months earlier than planned mattis resigned on thursday over trump's decision to pull u.s. troops out of syria when jordan has more from washington d.c. . there was already a lot of consternation on capitol hill both from democrats and from republicans that jim madison even decided to walk away and leave his post when the resignation was announced on thursday this is not going over well because there is raising a very real concern that the administration may be taking the united states into a place where the u.s. perhaps does not want to be and that national security interests may be jeopardized as a result meanwhile trump says he has discussed the slow and highly coordinated with drawl of u.s. troops from syria with his turkish counterparts trump and wretched tell you berta won agree to prevent a power vacuum in northern syria after the us troops leave well a partial u.s. government shutdown is likely to stretch into the new year after democrats refused to back fundin

increasingly taking his own advice in things like pulling out of syria it doesn't sound like he consulted madis at all it doesn't sound like he consulted mcgurk at all he's been pretty much his own chief of staff and so whether or not the new defense secretary is going to go along with him he doesn't seem to care he seemed perfectly happy simply to pick the next person if that's what happens thank you for that john hendren reporting there live from washington d.c. and as john mentioned the french president has reacted to the developments in washington and to the u.s. decision to pull its troops out of syria here's what a mannion michael had to say with him on it if you would please and i very deeply regret the u.s. decision on syria and i would like to pay tribute to general mattis and what he wrote in his resignation letter i have witnessed over the last year and a half of how reliable general mattis has been missed that he has a westernized meaning of what being allies was being allies it's fighting short by shoulder. well the impact of tram syria decision is being felt on the ground the turk

president who unilaterally makes decisions announces them on twitter without consulting his own leaders madis in his resignation letter talked about the importance of building alliances like the one with france and went on to say that the president deserves someone whose views were more in line with the president's own views but implicit with that is that the president has not been a very good partner with those allies he has been very critical of nato is moving in syria has made russia and turkey happy but they are often seen here in the united states more as rivals then as regional allies and it's upset a lot of the allies of the united states that he has done so without consulting to them so there is a sense of something of a crisis going on here in an administration that is undergoing just one series of tumultuous events after another thank you for that john hendren life for a same washington d.c. and the president's reaction to mccarthy resignation has left some scratching their heads and he was back with more on that subject thanks folly will shortly after mcgurk announced his resignati

madis madisonian democracy is very much alive. >> we know him, joe.h. >> there's a lot more going on in his head than we know just like there's a lot more going with nuller probe than we know. something is going on with him. his behavior. his demeanor. everything is changed. it's clear to me, i'll just say my assessment from knowing him for quite a long time he's deeply troubled either how much trouble he's in or someone in his family is in. that's all he cares about. or his financial future. something is going on. he's deeply troubled and behaving very differently than the person we knew. >> again, the point about washington always winning is that madisonian democracy has been strong for 240 years. there has been checks and balances. of course we have low points in this history. but as we always hear on this show, the arc of civilization is always moving upward and the greatest check and balances we said before the election was the voting booth, and every two years americans get to go out and they get to check leaders if they have overreached. when i
