baker. i am sure you heard the commentary from mike mckee. what do you think?ge to the outlook, business as usual. growth is still slowing but staying positive. i see the jobless numbers as a little bit of a hindrance, again, as you said, even one month does not make a trend but we are getting that continue to story of directional deterioration in the labor market but coming from such an incredibly tight starting point. we had the room to lose. jonathan: the soft data has gotten softer, the survey data on the consumer. we saw that from the conference board earlier this week. how much attention do you pay to those numbers, and when you start to see them we can like that, do they bleed into the heart due to eventually? lauren: consumer sentiment data i pay almost no attention to. what we are seeing it especially from the michigan data, it diverges so much republican and democrat how i feel about my own personal inflation rate. consumer sentiment is a notoriously terrible leading indicator. what i'm more focused on is something like ceo sentiment and all of those

baker, i'm glad you're still around with us. tell me what stood out to you. was it all about the almighty dollar, if you will, because there was so much that mike waltz talked aboutad to the nato summit in june, when he said that a full one third of nato membership has yet to make good on their 2% pledge to donate to nato in terms of their self security, that they have yet to do it. not only are they going to demand that in january or in june at this meeting, but donald trump wants to increase that to 5% from these member nations? >> well, first of all, it's important to remember that this is a fixation that donald trump has had for a long time. he's not the only president who has ever said that nato partners need to do more to pull, you know, to contribute their share. remind our viewers, when we talk about 2% of gdp, these are not contributions to nato. these are not money. it's not money that they owe the united states. what the agreement was was that nato partners would invest 2% of their economy on their own militaries, right, on their own defense systems, so that they would be pulling their weight. and the truth is, actually, many, many countries in nato ha

mike's work and developing natural gas emergencies and electrical emergency responses training with jeanie, her at our site and treasure island so typically a structure fire the incident commander chief baker ,chief thompson chief drought evac chief story someone would show up as an assistant chief assume command from the battalion chief and one of the immediate hazards that we think of as our firefighters are going into the building putting water on the fire ladder and it go into the roof and performing ventilation and search and rescue is the utilities in the walls are natural gas from the main into the building as we open doors and open up walls as well as the actual electricity. so one of the first moves for these assistant chiefs and their incident support specialists is to call on any pd does respond very quickly and help us mitigate the hazards as well as assigning a team to do that and shut off gas and electric to it to the building. >> so from listening to you it sounds like the procedures in place we do have procedures in place but like this weekend when we're expecting to have a large storm just as we'll be taxed thin on resources per unit will be task very thin on resources. so

mike wallace has been a cold warrior as well, tough both on russia and also tough on china. and so, you know, peter bakerown intel agency. at the same time, things like that were going on that would shock the conscience of, of anybody that knows anything about foreign policy. donald trump's vice president, mike pence, would be in europe, and he would be delivering a speech against russia that ronald reagan could have delivered. and so it is interesting, and i we always talk about what happened with the republicans in donald trump's first term, passing some of the toughest sanctions on russia yet. so, i mean, the new york post. exactly right. we are dealing with a dictator in, in, in russia. it is going to be interesting to see if donald trump's second term regarding russia plays out like his first term did. >> yeah. i mean, look, as keith kellogg playing the good cop to trump's bad cop and a deliberate way or is there, you know, is he off the reservation? and he's not been i mean, even though he's supposedly the special envoy for ukraine, he's not been the person at the table in saudi arabia with the rus
