now, melinda, you've heard just there, canada in greenland, in the new u. s. president or the soon to be us present president sites. how realistic or plausible is it that he'll actually make good on these threats? you know, it, trump is all about bluster and bravado, and it's actually a dilemma for us in the media. because we give him so much attention for his outragious claims that he makes. and that was a press conference. you know, he's just throwing some ideas out there and seeing what happens. and that's a trademark for him as well. because he sees himself as a deal maker, he thinks we, you know, just put in my maximum maximal claim and see if i get better terms for some stuff. he sometimes, uh, some, some observers say he's operating according to the mad mount theory of international politics, which is what richard nixon like to do. but nixon was a very c, a radical strategic person. trump. he operates on the basis of instinct. this is just who he is. so what does he want? maybe he wants nice deals with greenland on critical minerals because that is g

and we're serious about that, melinda. i'm curious about your thoughts here too. and also with the timeline from kind of famously originally said he'd in the war and ukraine in a day that now we think troop is very now focused on 6 months he wants. he wants to generate a headline just like he wants to generate a headline for the middle east. it's also partly about domestic political consumption. but i think we'll trump undermine the international order that has sought to prevent attacks like rushes on ukraine. yes, he, well, i think there's no question that he will probably so ukraine short in ways that many of us would feel would not be conducive to, to reinforcing that prohibition on the use of force. but one other thing about isolationism, and that's tre policy. and we won't have time to discuss that, but there is for me, no question that trump's planned terrace against countries emerging economies against europe, potentially against our neighbors to canada and mexico. this will lead to is a great deal more skepticism about the us. it will lead allies to look f

and american journalist melinda crane. you probably know her as a regular face. you're onto the warm welcome at tea. well 1st and let's get started with you is a trump presidency, potentially a turning point in the way we see the united states on the world stage? i think it is. and i think now we can be sure that this vision as the us as the self appointed guardian of the global liberal international order that's over the market. rubio said as much and his confirmation hearings and this time to, to yesterday and we're in for a wild ride with america 1st and as europeans, i think we need to get our prior to straight. i don't think it's the expansion isn't no annex in greenland and canada, that should be top of our mind. i think it should be top of our minds to make sure we don't get to know that ukraine and europe doesn't get thrown under the bus. and the deal with puts in and that we find some sort of common ground on trade in economics. so that we're going to end up in a, in a tower for with us. and more it's how do you think those wishes fit into what trump act

i'm so grateful for melinda's commitment to women's health.f her life, what she's doing around that is really monumental. i've decided to focus in on maternal health, on black maternal health, and really on organisations who are doing important work within their own communities and really touching women who are most at risk and who are, you know, doing urgent work to come out with better outcomes. it's really been very interesting to learn the landscape better, to hear what's happening in different parts of the world and to try to support those organisations. so would that work be centred in the united states or in different countries, maybe the continent of africa or other developing nations? yeah, it's open globally. and so, obviously, i have my most experience in the states and in my own communities, but i am actively speaking to organisations all over the world. and so, this is an issue all over the world as well so i'm excited to learn more. you also co—founded a sports management firm recently, adding to the list of your achievements as

let's welcome back to the nine san jose state political science professor, melinda jackson.nks for being with us. >> good morning. thanks for having me. >> of course. what do you expect to see as a result of this reversal of a 2011 policy? >> well, it certainly is an aggressive start to many of the things that donald trump promised during his campaign, which was to crack down on immigration and to really be much more aggressive about enforcement. what we're already seeing is that this obviously creates a climate of fear and anxiety among immigrant communities, because it's many, many immigrant families have people of mixed legal or or not legal status. and to think that parents could be detained, you know, dropping their children off to school, for example, is, is quite scary. and so it creates this climate of fear. quite honestly, i think that the attempt to rescind birthright citizenship, which, you know, is very plainly stated in the constitution and is going to face, is already facing legal challenges, is very unlikely to actually come to pass, but it builds on this psyc

joining me live is melinda haring nonresident senior fellow at the atlantic council's eurasia center.hink this message means? it's this message means? great to be back with you. so it's great to be back with you. so vladimir putin is not so happy with the new president. i think we've all forgotten that donald trump loves instability. so it's easy to forget that donald trump has said a lot of really nice flattering things about vladimir putin. we all remember that. about vladimir putin. we all rememberthat. but about vladimir putin. we all remember that. but when you go back and look at his record in the first term when he was president, not that long ago, he was actually pretty tough on putin. he authorised javelins when obama wouldn't. he kept the sanctions in place over crimea. he also was the one who shot down the pipeline. let's fast—forwa rd to shot down the pipeline. let's fast—forward to where we are now. he is saying i'm not going to be pushed around. he is sending vladimir putin into the war, we are going to face severe consequences. it's really game on is what trump is sayin

that's apparently what my friend melinda here is doing. he just climbed into the car. since we started doing this. good luck. you liked the car? yeah, it's amazing. all right, this is so one of the big winners here is being electric vehicles in the sense that they're being heavily featured here. among the cars of the year was the honda civic hybrid you. you've got the ford ranger, which was the truck of the year. and then you got the vw, paul electric bus called the buzz. so electric vehicles are really popular here. they're being featured, but there really aren't enough charging stations across the us. so companies like toyota are focusing on the hybrid vehicles like this rabbit for. and i've got someone here, we can talk a little more about this and explain what's going on with the show and what's going on with the ease and who's. ready being featured, this is sam clement, his executive director here of the north american international auto show in detroit. so sam, let me ask you 1st about the electric vehicle. ready is being featured here is a big part of the show,

[cheers and applause] so let's talk about, when we look at the russian oligarchs, you talk about, putin is utilizing the wealth of these men, i guess, to fund some of his endeavors or just the amassing of that money covers his own corruption? >> my understanding -- i'm not a rush expert for my understanding from reading the work of people who are is it is sort of like a pyramid scheme or a mafia operation, come over the sit at the top and takes a percentage of what the lower-level henchmen are getting. so he takes a chunk of the oil and he takes a chunk of the gas and that way, he stays the wealthiest man in the world. >> jon: they are earners. so vladimir putin runs a herbalife. that is what this is? >> yeah. >> jon: and for trump come he looks at it as, like, i will take my power that i have in government and i will amplify it through industry. but through industry
