and messier we need to be as hyper concerned as ever about israel's security. my worry is that an issue that was not seen as political or available to people, today is so i don't think that democrats or republicans care more than one another about israel's security. what i do know is that historically when we have been able to make a step forward, on progress for peace in and around israel it has been the united states who has acted as a broker. between the israelis and the palestinians. in order to be a broker you have to be perceived as delivering tough messages to both sides. that is not a position where in today. the trump administration is effectively a political arm of the netanyahu government, that means we have no ability and there's no one else i can fill that role, except for the united states. my great worry is that netanyahu has taken steps that have made a two state solution almost impossible. and having been there recently has been incredible. they're moving beyond that conversation, just trying to manage an apartheid state that will exist for the

i think as the region gets messier and messier we need to be as hyper concerned as ever about israel security. in my worry is an issue that was not seen as political or available to be politicized and i don't think democrats or republicans care more than one another about israel security. what i do know, historically when we have been able to make steps forward on progress for peace in and around israel is been the united states who acted as a broker between the israelis and the palestinians. in order to be a broker you have to be perceived as delivering tough messages to both sites. it is not a position were in today. the trump administration has effectively a political arm of the government and we have no ability to broker discussions and negotiations between both sides and there's no one else that can fill that role except for the united states. my great worry is that not in yahoo and trump together have taken steps to potentially make a two state solution almost impossible. and having been there recently it is remarkable how that is the narrative on the ground moving beyond the c

i think as the reason gets midwest messier and messier, we need to be as hyper concerned as ever about israel's security. my worry is that an issue that was not seen as political or at least sort of available to be politicized today is. and so i don't think that democrats or republicans care more than one another about israel's security. but what i do know is historically when we have been able to make steps forward on progress for peace in and around israel it's been the united states who has acted as a broker between the israelis and the palestinians. and in order to be a broker, you have to be perceived as delivering tough messages to both sides. that is not a position we're in today. the trump administration is effectively a political arm of the netanyahu government. that mean we was no ability to honestly broker scoreses between both sides and there's no one else who can fulfill that role except for the united states. my great worry is that netanyahu and trump together have taken steps that have potentially made a two-state solution almost impossible. and having been there recentl

there is a lot of other ingredients in place though from a geopolitical standpoint that messier than last carrier. because every month or every quarter that the trade war goes longer, the damage done to the global economy i think is takes that much more to be undone. and we know that economies don't turn on a dime markets can on tweets and headlines. economies don't. and it may take time to kind of work out of the malaise we've been in a while. >> i think that's fair i think tony is pushing back on the data saying maybe a positive spot i look forward to that but looking at vietnam printing -- one of the high growth economies vietnam prints at a 50.5 pmi you had the employment kboenant of the usism giving as you real look not labor markets the lowest point since 2016 the pmi, germany at the lows of 2009 that's right back to june of 2009 i should say when we were talking about green schutts. as dan points out, the trade war is a double edged dynamic for traders. some people say solve the trade war and back to work and and it's okay ebitly the reality is it doesn't work like that. i agr

and riot the riot police and they seem to be ready to move in if necessary so it could get a lot messier here unless there is some sort of an agreement quickly thank you very much with the latest on those protests in ecuador seen humalog america dissolute reporting from. we go to iraq now the prime minister there is announced 3 days of mourning for demonstrators killed during days of violent anti-government protests at least $110.00 people were killed $6000.00 were injured across the country protests have been demanding an end to endemic government corruption and widespread unemployment and on call reports now from the capital baghdad. they chant no more corrupt government the key to the anti-government protesters is an end to decades of crooked politicians since the u.s. led occupation and invasion of iraq in 2003 corruption watchdog transparency international says 4 $150000000000.00 has gone missing former m.p. right he is now an anti corruption campaigner and for. the corruption floodgates opened in 2006 when the government replaced the jafari government there was a lauren place befor

gdp it's fundamentally messier because it requires adding apples and oranges and a myriad of other goodsces. hard working statisticians regularly adapt the data sources and methods. the measured data provide accurate indicators. periods of rapid change present particular challenges and it can take time for the measurement system to adapt to fully and accurately show the changes in the economy. the advance of technology has long presented measurement challenges in 1987, nobel prize winning e connist quipped you can see the computer age everywhere but in the productivity statistics. in the second half of the 1990 s, it was at the heart of policy making where others saw capacity constraint and incipient inexplaination, greenspan saw productivity boom. in light of the uncertainty it faced, it was judged the appropriate risk management approach called for refraining from interest rate increases unless and until there were clearer signs of inflation later revisionist to gdp showed faster productivity growth this episode illustrates a key challenge in making data in realtime good decisions requ

it will be a messier ride for justin trudeau, even though he is still in power. david: what does he want to get done? josh: some of it is about keeping stuff that they have already done. had he lost, the national carbon price probably would've been done. he and the democrats will keep that in place. national pharmaceutical funding would be high in the list. the pipeline is the big flashpoint. this is the one trudeau bought last year and is pledging to expand. the democrats are opposed to this, but in the past it has been flexible on whether they would go to the wall. it. that will be one to watch. can trudeau expand the trans mountain pipeline the government now owns if he is needing to lie on this left-wing anti-pipeline party to stay in power. david: that is josh wingrove reporting from ottawa. now we go to washington and kevin cirilli. kevin, not a day goes by we do not have somebody on capitol hill talking about the impeachment think very. how much is this getting under the president's skin? cabinet it seemed like he was pretty irritated. kevin: president tru

things are getting messier by the home.t in the past few hours the nba commissioner adam silver was referring to this tweet, this now deleted tweet when he said that essentially he supports morey's right for freedom of speech without endorsing that tweet in and of itself. that did not go over well here in mainland china. what we have seen since is that chinese broadcasters cctv has decided that they will halt airing all preseason nba games here in mainland china. it goes beyond just the rockets. that's every team involved. and they're going to continue to evaluate the relationship with the nba going forward. as you point out, billions of dollars at stake. and also a lot of sports fans here who are passionate about this. but it goes beyond that. it goes beyond sports and economics. underlying here there's this clash that we're seeing that's pinning free speech against profit. that is what's playing out right now. and it's not just cctv that has decided to pull out here. we've seen ten cent, which is a giant tech company sayi

. >> maybe is store was messier than others. >> brandon was 23 then and terrified. >> i'm just thinkingjust -- they're really trying to put this on this young black man, you know. >> when they questioned his fiance, now wife -- >> they were trying to convince her that i did it. they would say things to her like, how can you sleep with a murderer, you know. you know he did it, you know. you're possibly next. >> when they searched his house. >> it was like in a movie, going through drawers, throwing my clothes. they left the house a wreck. >> even when he was finally cleared, he says no one told him. nor was he told amber had written him up, though he agreed they hadn't seen eye-to-eye on things. until we spoke with him, he said, he had no idea amber's mother believed she saw him put something into amber's coffin. >> did you walk over to the casket and put in a lanyard or something? >> that's the most absurd thing i ever heard. no, no. that was my very first funeral so i didn't even get that close to the casket. >> but brandon is a father now, two kids. so he told us he thinks of amber's

just wonder if when people say they want authenticity these days, do they want something rougher and messier and less well formed? i don't know the answer to that. >> we have to mention there was only one lapel pin tonight that said "math," and it belonged to andrew yang. standing by with chris hayes. >> thank you, brian. there was a long exchange tonight on the universal basic income and automation, which has been sort of a core theme of your campaign. you talk a lot about automation, but i'm not convinced that the kind of apocalypse you paint is really coming, right? we've had all kinds of automation revolutions. like why should people be focusing on that when there are so many other issues around minimum wage and labor unions and the strength of workers that seem like they're as important as automation? >> well, you certainly shouldn't take my word for it. the obama whouite house, m.i.t. mckenzie bain all projected that wen 20% and 30% of american jobs are going to be lost to automation over the next 10 to 20 years. there's a straight line up between the adoption of industrial robots in a

it's much messier with it being very unclear which side we should be on. turkey is an ally. the free syrian army used to be an ally and now they're allied with the turks who have the kurds on the other side. i think the president made the y decision and i think he made a wise decision and when the turks that we were coming in one way or the other. we are going to send tens of thousands of troops and, for a president to say 50 troops are going to stand there. that would've been malpractice. that would have been legislative or malpractice, he did the wise thing and will play 50 troops which are not at a turn to anything. >> martha: here is lindsey graham. you know he has very fired up about this. he usually lines up with the president on most things, but not on the spirit >> the problem with donald trump, he has a chance to change this and i would urge him to do this. it's not about me wanting to stand syria forever, it's me wanting to make sure that isis does not reemerge. >> martha: he doesn't want to see the day when you have people being beheaded on the beaches again and t

comfort zone and force her to confront these parts of life that for her a little bit more a little bit messierfficult to deal with. >> reporter: much of theor conversation between friends is by text by email. all of them used extensively in the novel is that because that was just natural to you? >> yeah, i mean partly because it was natural and partly i think because it was interesting. i like as a writer i'm very drawn to text and words and so on uses of language always interest me and i feel that the internet gives us new ways of using language and has really lives in a new way.nguage in our so the fact that so many relationships are now conducted almost primarily through the written word for a writer is sort of very juicy and interesting because i love the written word. >> reporter: yes. >> so i was yeah really interested in pursuing how it is that people build relationships using language alone. >> reporter: well, but it's also very interesting because you know there's all kinds of discussion and talk about what our lives on screens are doing to us into relationships communications with ou

account a lot of the things right now and maybe, sent disease going forward i don't look a little messier and revolutionary america was a better place and that's okay. we don't need to have a, you know, we all read baylor would but those answers don't fit with the revolutionary world we see it. >> maybe just embracing the message to say that it was complicated and there is a lot of perspectives in the middle about all these ways that people experience it and look at it. that itself is something moving into the public and understand why it does though it does. people had such different experiences. >> that messiness can be more appealing appealing to students because seeing it as varies streamlined and chronological arc can be seen as asserting what the messiness they see along this basis. per perhaps there are these guys that seem to have all these answers except the problems that they acknowledge might be more helpful to students to show the good answer. >> that's a really good point. >> thank you. >> to your point again. >> what if our synthesis was to return to home but put the militar

the current state of play is much messier than that. alix: it is, which is my question.g on these blacklisted tech companies because of human rights, obviously the government knows this would have tempered trade talks and sent a bad message to beijing. is that what they wanted to do? is this brinkmanship or a threat? bringing in human rights is very different than talking about ip reform. shawn: absolutely. i think what we hear from folks in the administration is that they believe that these are separate actions from the trade talks. these are national security actions. they say this is a process that was underway long before this week. it just happened to gel this week. but what you get out of that is evidence of the continuing battles inside the administration over how to handle china. there's a big contingent of people who see china as an existential threat. there's another side that wants to do a deal. the second thing is lack of policy coordination. the timing of this couldn't be any worse. alix: wonderful reporting out of bloomberg shawn donnan. thank you very much

the situation in the middle east is messier because of president trump's withdrawal.this operation may have taken place anyway, we have more enemies. the kurds are angry because they think we betray them for oil because of the things that the president said. we don't have a real safe zone yet with them. we could start a safe zone before the president made the decision basically capitulating with turkey and russia about withdrawing. we are in a worse situation even the operation itself was a success. >> it is interesting that you bring up oil. it has been a consistent theme over the last two hours or so. one of the criticisms of u.s. foreign policy in the middle east historically beyond that is the american's interests in oil. the reasons they are there is not for democracy or national security. it is not for safety of the people in that region for providing organization and leadership but it is for money. it is for oil. this is not my view. this is the criticism of u.s. foreign policy in that region historically and we can go back a long time if we want to talk about

hair a little messier. >> make decisions based on that. that is almost how much people know. as i alluded to earlier, difference, about boris johnson all you know about brexit. laser focused on brexit. if he is talking it is brexit, brexit. boris johnson brexit. with trump it is not like that. you mentioned donald trump a whole host of things. he is trying to do a whole host of things at once. that is difficult for two reasons. one because of focus. two, because you don't have the allies, because you are fighting another battle with them. why you're also taking on china. neil: it could be a big victory. >> anything is possible, neil. neil: exactly. thank you very much. the dow is barely budging on this, waiting to hear this. waiting what happens on the turkish front. that was a pretty chilly reception the turkish president gave the vice president of the united states a few hours ago. we're on top of that. waiting to hear from the acting white house chief of staff mick mulvaney. he will be addressing reporters no doubt on turkey. no doubt on a lot of testimony going up on capi
