. >> training we have nile gardiner director of the margaret thatcher center for freedom at the heritageort -- why is this important? >> it is very significant move. a demonstration i think with far more muscular approach taken by the trumpet ministration towards pakistan as opposed to the very weak approach taken by the obama administration. pakistan of course has played an important ally for the united states for many decades but elements of the pakistani government particular, the security intelligence services for example, double game for many years. whereby they are not fully cooperating with the united states. in some cases supporting the taliban and other islamist terrorist organizations.and the united states sending a very clear message that if pakistan is to receive further military assistance, we need to see an end to the support for terrorist organizations by some element of the pakistani administration. i think this is the right message to send to islamabad at this time especially ahead of mike pompeo is visit to the capital later this week. arthel: china has money. what stop

they are convincing people you shouldn't have to work, but as margaret thatcher once said socialism is great until you want someone else's money. but what you can do is you go into the old age home i used to do that right before the election and you tell them they have to vote. a lot of them may not vote. you have to get the millennial to vote. don't just say it's not worth it. you have to stop the local who was a socialist. that's what's happening, it's kind like the muslim brotherhood but you have to stop them. bernie sanders, socialist would have been the democratic candidate for president of the united states but for hillary clinton regained the dnc. that's the only thing i can say. you're welcome. happy birthday.
