i said milt, are you okay?said i just am so happy and i can't believe you guys are still interested. >> how much did that have to do with you driving ahead on this case? >> a lot. i'm the father of three daughters as well. what if this was my middle daughter. >> milt died a month later, not knowing what happened to his daughter. >> when terry went to her father's funeral, a private thought ate at her. mike must know something. >> i didn't say anything. i tried to keep away. he was paying respects to my family. but i couldn't carry on a conversation with him. >> meanwhile, walt had been obsessed. he had many pressing cases, but something kept pulling him back to carol. >> i would put some of my work away and i got in trouble for that sometimes. >> for years he chipped away until finally in 2010, eight years after he found the musty old file, he decided to pay a surprise visit to mike. >> what do you think he is going to admit it to you? >> i played enough sports in my time, i know you are not going to get anywhe

well milt meltzer is the united nations special operator on torture as a former red cross official human rights expert he's worked for about 20 years with victims of violence and political persecution he's now joined a chorus of concern regarding the case of julian assad submitting a report to the u.k. government as well as to swedish american ecuadorian all. authorities claiming that assad has been subjected to that psychological torture now this comes shortly after julian assad's u.k. court hearing on his potential extradition to the united states was postponed due to his ill health lawyers stating he could hardly hold a functional conversation and missed them out so says this isn't just speculation he visited a songe in belmarsh high security prison where he's being held now spending several hours with him assessing him alongside medical professionals and his conclusions as to be said were quite scathing he slammed what he described as deliberate concerted and sustained abuse of raising concerns about assad's use and lack of access to lawyers and legal aid also slamming what he descri

. >> martha, you and i traveled to those sum milts together. and i know there is news tonight, the president nominating patrick shanahan to officially become defense secretary. he's been in an acting capacity for months now. this all comes amid these rising tensions with iran, venezuela and tonight, north korea, as well. and as you point out, the president saying no one is happy about this. >> reporter: no one is happy in the administration, david, because it is hard to see how these two sides get back to the table unless kim stops these provocative tests. he is clearly ramping up pressure and demonstrating with these mobile launch missiles that he's gaining greater capabilities, and as of right now, has done absolutely nothing to rid his nation of nuclear weapons. david? >> martha, thank you. >>> there are new questions tonight after that deadly school shooting in colorado. law enforcement tonight is now investigating whether a security guard on the scene fired his weapon, possibly hitting sheriff's deputies or a student by accident. and tonig

contacts with american european and lend american colleagues i can't find any to support a reckless milt. a solution i hope that this understanding that everyone has will turn into practical policies and that there won't be any military solution because it would be catastrophic the u.s. is accusing china of bank tracking all its promise is a day after president said he'd impose new terrorists on chinese goods the u.s. will raise tariffs by twenty five percent on two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese products on friday. came two days before representatives from both countries are scheduled to resume trade talks religious leaders in sri lanka are appealing for calm and restraint that's after the shops and houses belonging to muslims were attacked in the town of the gumble just north of the capital colombo this comes just weeks after attacks on easter sunday which killed two hundred fifty people catholic leaders about members of the muslim community to reassure them the situation has to be controlled through intelligence not through emotions people sometimes you need become emotional

and, you know, the high injury rates are a big reason that women's attrition from the milt is much higher than men. women leave the military earlier and more frequently than men do. >> thank you very much. thank you, mr. chairman. >> thank you. two questions. miss eden, in this area of -- in the places where you've identified you see women excel like in intelligence and health and those areas, am i right that you wouldn't have a concern with registration for the potential of compulsory service in those areas that would include both women and men? is that right? it's really in the sense that you think it's inappropriate and undermine sort of operational effectiveness in areas that are outside of those types of places? >> yes. my position is based on the purpose of the draft as we know it today and as i've stated, if we're approaching this from a standpoint of equity and we say we're going to register people for the draft for all military positions, combat and noncombat alike, men are still going to get the unequal share of the heavy lifgts and the high-risk jobs, so how do we justify that

milt operations and diplomacy around the globe. it is the backstop and foundation of our national defense. so in an era of renewed great power competition, allies and partners should take comfort in knowing that the united states has the will and the flexible resilient nuclear capabilities needed to deter nuclear attack and coercion against us as well as against them. let me conclude just by thanking brookings for the opportunity to come here today, present the department's views and discuss these issues that are critically important to our national security and with that i'll be happy to take questions. so thank you all very much.

i was friends with milt friedman up until the day he died.ink he was right about this, is free market capitalism is generally success and socialism, communism, these other isms are a failure. he used to lament that for some reason even though we know that's true, people say they want a little bit more socialism. i think that's what's coming through in this poll. i would say the thing that disturbs me the most about this, stuart, is it is an incredible indictment of our education system in america that we're spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to educate kids from the time they're 4 years old until the time they're 22 years old and they are coming out with these, you know, dim-witted ideas about socialism. if you are a free market conservative like i am and i think you are, we have ourselves to blame. we let the left run the schools. this is what they're teaching the kids. stuart: that is absolutely true. you're right there. now, atlanta's fed president says he doesn't expect a rate cut this year. what do you think? you think we should c
