mr. bennett and mr. netanyahu are aware that they are opening a new road that cannot be used for palestinians, roads that cannot be used for palestinians in 2018. now, if mr. bennett is saying there's no space between the river jordan and the mediterranean, it doesn't mean he wants two states, he wants me to live under his occupation, he wants me to live in his option of one state to a system that's upper side, up side, upper side and i'm telling you this no palestinian will accept and the other option -- many palestinians are saying they want equal rights, israelis will never accept this. so what does this mean? it means that mr. bennett's ideology is going to lead to deepening the cycle of violence and counterviolence between palestinians and israelis and when i say my only option is a two-state solution, in the state of palestine, to live with security and safety with israel, i'm here to save lives. when abu mazen said in his speech an arabic term that means come on, he said it means to diminish your

mr. bennett has said quite specifically about the meeting that donald trump, jr.ith the russians was really wrong? that really is the focus. alex: treason and unpatriotic is what bannon said. i don't think robert mueller is going to change the trajectory of his investigation based on what steve bannon says in the book. we believe -- i don't think we know for sure that the special counsel has been looking at that , at that meeting. shery: alex wayne joining us from washington. david: up next, the latest picture of the u.s. labor market. we will take a look at how the economy is very under president trump's first year in office. this is bloomberg. ♪ david: this is "bloomberg markets: balance of power.

mr. bennett knew of your relationship with ms. lewinsky. you stated there was no sex of any kind, in any manner, shape or form with president clinton. that was an utterly false statement. is that correct? >> it depends upon what the meaning of the word is is. >> were you ready for that answer? did that catch you by surprise as much as it did the rest of us when we got to see it and hear about it? >> it caught me by surprise because i think the president had done generally speaking a masterful job in the questioning. in the grand jury questioning. and i thought this was his one mistake and his biggest mistake. i think it came off sounding very, very poorly. >> so you asked that question, that line of question of president clinton. has bob mueller been taken out of the prospect of questioning president trump himself because of the revelation by "the times and "the post" that he gave an order to fire mueller, sol?" >> oh, not at all. i expect mueller to be there. unlike ken starr mueller has -- who really had very little involvement in the act

mr. bennett over the ten years he's been there. he has indicated he was there to be a good neighbor. he tends to be a procrastinor. for example, in june of last year, obviously, his operation permit was modified primarily because of noise. it's been six months now, and this insulation noise barrier has just been installed within a week. and the reports to show the improvements aren't even put together yet. so the point is, all we want is the noise down to a reasonable level, and it hasn't been there. it's getting better, and we think it is a situation that can be solved. we just need somebody to put some effort into it, do what they say they're going to do. and we have nothing against the operation. it's -- we know it's broadway. we live there; we own property there. it's just an unusual -- or unreasonable condition at this point. thank you for your time. >> thank you. >> good evening, commissioners. my name is dominick lamandre. i'm the district manager for the top of broadway cbd. it's good to see you. this is the third time i'm going to submit a comment on this issue. what i will

mr. bennett. >> aye. >> mr. blumenthal. neil: i want to explain what is going on here. they are voting on this measure would effectively clear the way for the government eventually to reopen. i also feel compelled to correct something i hear often on, not to politicize this issue, this is the first time government has had a shutdown under one party rule. that is simply not the case, my friend. i don't care whether you're a democrat or republican on this this happened self times under jimmy carter when democrats ruled the house and senate as well. the big difference back then, no government workers were furloughed but the government shut down, not once, not twice, but three different times there. is precedent to this they try to make this seem it is historically unique. it is getting to be historically common, no matter what the shape of government and who controls what branch and when. but the fact of the matter this is not a first for one party rule. the difference now, is that it is extended to government workers getting furloughed. something not an option back in the

president the book question trumps competence and quotes bennett as saying that the mr trump has lost it let's get more this a mechanic who's with us from washington d.c. and i mean the fallout might when he continues in the twists and turns of what was all not said in this book. well indeed steve benen as you say has issued an apology of sorts he contends that a number of the quotes attributed to him in the book fire and fury were inaccurate he says he never referred to don jr as committing treason when he held the meeting in trump towers with russian officials all russian representatives last year steve benen making very clear that he wants to get back into donald trump's good favors cynics would argue that he's got a financial interest in this given that many of the backers of his breitbart organization are indeed trump supporters but president trump continues to take the michael wolff book very personally it would appear and the tweet storm about the book continued this morning. president trump arrives back at the white house having spent his morning at camp david firing out a num

mr. wynn, his actual investments, not just his reputation, were hit. >> let me ask you a bit about that. jeff bennett a moment ago reading a statement from steve wynn which he issued personally about the reporting there in the "wall street journal." what has this company said -- when you look at a guy who's an older guy, founded the company, running it for some time here, what's the company saying about the role he plays here in the day-to-day operations of wynn? as you mention, looks to expand overseas into machao and other parts of asia? >> reporter: the company issued a statement that was firm saying that denying all of the allegations -- i think you mentioned this earlier -- they called the claims preposterous and went on to say that there was an anonymous tip line available within the wynn resort's company, the sort of the corporation. and that there had never been in these, you know, 30 years of allegations described in the "wall street journal" article, there had never been an anonymous tip against mr. wynn. made in the hotline that was made available to all of the employees. of course, we --
