and those people never lived in manhattan.or they didn't live in manhattan for a very, very long time. i mean, if you wanted to -- if you were -- first of all, those back office jobs didn't go from manhattan to charlotte, i think they probably went from manhattan in the '70s to jersey city, from jersey city, and then from jersey city to charlotte. but, you know, the city always was, you know, for -- it's very hard to, you know, lead a middle class family life in manhattan. it's all but impossible. and it seems that with all this talk about how to revitalize major metropolitan areas, i think they begin and end with two words which is public schools. the, now, you know, new york has some terrific public schools, but they're extraordinarily selective, they're extraordinarily, you know, they're sort of reserved for the merit of course rah city. merit of course rah city. if you want to raise a family and go to the kinds of schools they can go to in charlotte, my god, it's a revolution that you have to have in manhattan. i just don'

but whatever our president came to manhattan, it was disruptive. and i think i am probably more destructive than any of them react when they have to close 5th avenue, or close 50 six st and any other streets, -- i am here for another reason. we doing a tremendous amount of work, i am in a large number of meetings and i am on the phone a lot. i'm here for that reason. it's very disruptive to them. >> why will you be in washington on monday? president trump: we have a conference scheduled, a very important meeting schedule and we will have a big press conference on >> the secretary monday. has emphasized diplomacy and you have spoken, increasingly emphasizing military action. are you two are the same page? president trump: totally on the same page. secretary, maybe you would like to make a statement? sec. tillerson: it takes a combined message if we are going to get movement with north korea. i think the president has made it clear that he prefers a diplomatic solution, i think you responded to that in fact just moments ago. so, what the president is

aaron, senior fellow from the manhattan institute. he also runs and in this cosmopolitan panel is our representative -- aaron is from the town of 50 people in rule indiana. looking forward to having a robust discussion about american cities in the american quality and how they're relating to each other. so first, they propose that we should treat liberal cities the way liberals treat corporate monopolies, known as growth enhancing assets, what is trust that concentrate wealth and power and can fire against the public good. instead of trying to make them a little bit more egalitarian with more affordable housing, we should make like teddy roosevelt and try to break them up. the reason why this was interesting to me is coming up of the selection which was so how much were population was concentrated in certain places and how much of one particular persuasion was concentrated in those places. because of the, the popular vote as you may have heard did not match the electoral vote for one of the rare times in american history. most people

in manhattan, whenever a president came in it was very disruptive. i think i'm probably more disruptive then any of them. >> back to the white house renovations continue. large cranes parked on the south lawn and there are storage pod outside, a first family hasn't had to move out of the white house during repairs since 1994, among fixes being made repairing a ceiling leak, the south porti co steps are updated and place is getting fresh paint, carpet and curtains. this is best advertisement for pod i ha s >>> we have seen a lot of staff shake up in the last couple weeks. spicer, mooch, priebus. president trump was asked about his new chief of staff general john kelly. >> i think that general kelly has brought, he put something very special to the office, chief, i call him chief. he is a respected man. four star from the marines. he carries himself like a four star for the marines and he is my friend, which vice important you know who else is a friend of the president? mike pence. earlier this week pence slammed new york times story that suggested he

i am lawrence mone present at the manhattan institute. thank you. [applause] it's a pleasure for me to introduce jason riley today. as most of you know jason's a senior fellow at the manhattan institute, regular columnist for "the wall street journal" and a commentator for "fox news". in his new book, "false black power?" jason offers a critique of civil rights leaders and their prioritization of pure political power which he argues us fail to produce significant results for african-americans. the book also includes responses to jason's arguments from two leading black intellectuals john mcwhorter and glenn lowry. so slender book but it packs a powerful punch. as one blogger noted what makes this book shine is the clarity of its logic and accessibility of its writing style. just as fred astaire dance that is rarely expressed his mastery so natural that it seems effortless. how did you get him to write this? there you go. it's available for just $10. $6 on kindle. jason may not get rich with this book that hopefully he will open a few minds. please j

i stayed out of manhattan because it's so disruptive to go to manhattan. i have meetings monday and tuesday going to manhattan. it's so disruptive. all of my adult life as i grow up in queens, not manhattan. but during time i lived in manhattan, whenever a president came tonight was very disruptive. i think i'm probably more disruptive than any of them. so when they have to close fifth avenue and 56th street and many other streets, i'm here for that reason. we are doing a tremendous amount of work. we are having large numbers of meetings and i'm on the phone a lot. i would love to go to my home in trump tower. but it's very, very disruptive. we have an important conference monday and we'll have a big press conference monday. >> secretary tillerson has spoken about diplomacy and you talk about military options. are you on the same page? >> totally. >> i think it takes a combined message for everyone to get effective movement out of the regime in north korea. the president made it clear he prefers a diplomatic solution. he responded to that a moment ago. he'

the presidency is collapsing, but my question for you is whether the country and businesses beyond manhattan, beyond the beltway, and beyond the fortune 500 see it this way. what do you think? >> i think that's great insight. certainly there have been a lot of challengeses for the president over the last several weeks. once you get outside the fortune 500 companies, there's still an appreciation for the long-term agenda of the republican party, lower taxation and regulation. that's while there's a disconnect in the interim, i think the long run businesses will still support the republican agenda. >> do you think that the president will be able to push that agenda through with republicans on the hill? >> the republicans ran on the same plat much as donald trump, lower regulation, lower taxation, and so forth. they know they'll be judged on that in the midterm elections.

many real estate developers and landlords wanted to see small manufacturers depart manhattan. the mayor was interested in relocating industry to the outer boroughs, often companies would leave for the suburbs. the result was new york, by the early 1970's was in economic distress. they lost 10% of the population between 1970 and 1980. also about .5 million jobs, and the new jobs coming in in the service sector tended to generate less revenue and income for the city than the older ones. as the city grew poorer, and less white, there was a rising need for social services in general. but a shrinking tax base to pay for the services that might have been supported easier by a larger one without the suburban flight. i think one underlying question raised by the history is whether there is some way to consider entire metropolitan regions when it comes to making fiscal determinations for a city. should people who generate their wealth in urban areas be able to sequester their taxes from supporting the urban core? a second issue the city faced in the postwar years, they had to bear the

they run along central park on manhattan's upper west side. seen darting for food and including those sticky popsicles that like to run down your kids' hands. they know no bounds when it comes to personal space. watch your ankles. parents say they've had enough. a new york city councilwoman says the city is not only working to pick up the trash more often around the parks they're also pushing for more durable trash bins so that the rats won't be able to gnaw their way through. >> a dangerous war of words escalates between the u.s. and north korea. >>> a shooting near a montgomery county playground.

i got a fabulous offer to be a cub reporter on a weekly newspaper in manhattan called "the manhattan tribune" published by an african-american and a white publisher. the head of the congress of racial equality. and a peace corps veteran. and the idea was to cover the west side of manhattan. that's the center of liberal ferment in new york state and the country, really. and harlem. and we covered both areas. and our slogan was black and white and read all over. remember the old joke about what's black and white and read all over? newspapers? that was our slogan. it with us sort of a false narrative as we've been hearing because it wasn't read by anybody in particular. but it was a great gig. it failed miserably. i got my girlfriend, fiancee, future wife to work with me on it and we were overwhelmed. we had all these famous editors. one quit, one was fired. and we looked around and we were the only two working on the paper. so we put it out for an extra to years, just the two of us. and i got up to $115 a week and the publisher said -- he actually had been a reporter on a newspaper in

i stay out of manhattan because it's so disruptsiive to go. i have meetings on monday and tuesday going to manhattan. it's so disruptive. all of my life, my adult life because i grew up in queens not in manhattan but during the time when ever a president came in, it was very disruptive. i think i'm probably more disruptive than any of them. they have to close fifth avenue, when they have to close 56th street and many other streets. i'm here for that reason. we're doing a tremendous amount of work. we're very large numbers of meetings and i'm on the phone a lot. i'm here for that reason. i would love to go to my home in trump tower but it's very, very disruptive to do. >> the trip to washington on monday. >> we have a conference scheduled. we have an important meeting scheduled. >> secretary tillerson spoken emphasizing diplomacy, are you two on the same page? >> totally. >> we're going to get effective movement out of the regime in north korea. the president has made it clear. he prefers a diplomatic solution. i think he responded to that a mo

we now live in manhattan. we drove for manhattan to great bend for the 90th birthday party only to arrive at the petroleum club with three carshg in the parking lot. i walk innocent what happened t? don't you know, died yesterday. as you may remember he missed his birthday party by a day. secondly, in a topic of interest i hope to all of you but one i want to ask your help on, i'm not a veteran but i grew up with vietnam in the back of my life and saw what happened to many who serve in our military as they returned home and haveoso v worked hard to make it a point of making sure those who serve our country serve the benefits and care and respect that they are deserving of. when i was your congressman, not your senator, i represented his first congressional district, a district larger than the state of illinois. and so access to the va has been a challenge for people who live in rural kansas.n up our efforts in those days was to open up at the gate to open up outpatient clinics in cancer. there's one in hays, o

the story of the clerk who misfiled in manhattan. we had the mystery of the missing manhattan sewage that was crucial to his efforts that failed later to develop the west side yards. i'm sure that mueller's people are going to discover lots of problems with records being nonexistent or nonsensical. of course, they're going to want to turn people, but those won't just be people like paul manafort. they may be clerks. they may be lawyers. they may be accountants who donald has persuaded one way or another to act improperly. the system of corrupting people in business is not greatly different, though less sophisticated, than what the russians do when they try to compromise someone over a period of time as it was clear they were trying to do when they met with donald trump jr. in june of last year. >> david, in terms of the president's legal representation, i am very struck by as you were just describing, i'm very struck by the expertise of his team and the type of folks he has brought on and the kind of work they've done in the past, an

the crowds have been big and loud, moving around midtown, manhattan. showing signs of fizzling out anytime soon. given the first few months of his administration, him coming back to new york to spend the night since the first night of his inauguration would have had a version of this protest in some case. but the people are here tonight because of what happened this weekend in virginia and the president's grudging response, his lack of response to the neo-nazi white supremacist demonstrations in charlottesville, va, leaving two police officer's dead in a helicopter crash while monitoring the events. the protests tonight in new york are not the first reaction that we've had. aez the news started to filter into people's news this weekend, people took to the streets everywhe everywhere. in seattle, they marded with a giant replica of the constitution. hundreds of people turned out protesting in seattle, ultimately police used pepper spray to break up the crowd in seattle. that was yesterday. that was sunday in seattle. in denver hundreds of people gathere
