well mr graham and gary have to take a very short break but we'll be back in just a few moments stay tuned. here's what people have been saying about rejected and this is. the only show i go out of my way to you know what it is that really packs a punch. yeah john oliver a party america is doing the same. apparently better than. the sea people you've never heard of. jack to the next president of the world bank very. seriously send us an e-mail. young children have worked in bolivia for generations almost three quarters of a million a doing so today. this culture led to the development of bolivia's new liberal and highly controversial children's code in two thousand and fourteen which gave children as young as ten the right to work under certain circumstances one does and is seen as. is all news. eat well without having the end all. the things years. but there are hundreds of thousands of children in bolivia operating completely outside the local. mining work is strictly forbidden by the children but it's never enforced and that means the school boy minus continue risking their lives

well mr graham and kerry have to take a very short break but we'll be back in just a few moments stay tuned. we have a great we need to strengthen before the freefall world called better than a legend to keep it so it's at the back. in one thousand nine hundred two that must qualify for the european championships at the very last moment no one believed in us but we won and i'm hoping to bring some of that waiting spirit to the r.c.c. . recently i've had a lot of practice so i can guarantee you that peter schmeichel will be on the best fall since my last world cup i said when that starts or as three. thousand zero zero zero zero hitter here i call russia. i fly strike. left left left more or less ok stop that's really good that. young children have worked in bolivia for generations almost three quarters of a million doing so today. this culture led to the development of the libya's new liberal and highly controversial children's code in two thousand and fourteen which gave children as young as ten the right to work under certain circumstances but there's a new thing this. is all new. e

well mr graham and kerry have to take a very short break but we'll be back in just a few moments stay tuned. some animal rights activists are just upset that we meet period which makes no sense by the way because animals eat other animals and we're supposed to be equal with animals but suddenly they don't want humans eating other animals so in a sense they're saying that animals have the right to eat other animals but humans don't have a right to eat other animals even though they think we're all equal so so there's a logical inconsistency there. welcome back to worlds apart thomas graham and secretary general of the organization for security and cooperation in europe mr graham and let's broaden our discussion a little bit i heard one official in moscow say that the next few years or to be precise your term will determine whether the becomes a more relevant international body or whether it seizes to exist altogether do you agree with such stark formulation. of course. huge expectations on my terms. not so sure that i. would like. but of course i'm ambitious and i know it's extremely i

graham, mr. is, mr.tt who is black -- you can be black and be a supremacist, at least one who encourages it and i think you can be -- where do you stand on restoring the voting rights act? where do you stand on health care? because you do know that when you cut health care, you heard a large percentage of african-american people in your state. where do you stand on living wages since 52% of african-americans make less than living wage, 64 million people who make less than a living wage in this country? where do you stand on immigration reform? declaresichard spencer emigration is the first battle of white supremacy and white nationalists in the modern era. that is what he has actually said. the question becomes, not are you loud like trump and are you -- you carry on the antics of trump, it is the policies of what nationalism and white supremacy. mr. graham, where do you stand sessions, whojeff has a history of standing against the voting rights and trying to prosecute people fighting for those rights? w

said just a thought many of the top palestinian leaders not to chase after sweets and after what mr graham say's or any promises from mr trump the best thing for the palestinians to do now is sit back and wait him out wait mr crump out because mr trump have no political experience no negotiating experience in politics maybe you know how to negotiate to build a hotel or bill because seeing without fail but he does not have the experience he does not have the power even and the full around the world in order to bring give peace a peace that will be good for everybody at ups israelis for less indians and jews but if they continue to chase it to the chase the weeds of mr graham they are nothing they are serving nobody but most of them come south mr trump is temporary and they should not need or see it and pressure like this they should leave them alone let them do whatever because let's remember it we've is non-binding it and agreement and that pressure is binding no matter what pressure was applied on the palestinians so let it go just continue keep on going keep on living try to make it diff

with the americans they thought the palestinians thought the americans were an honest broker and mr graham came and showed how dishonest the u.s. administration is in the middle east and they took the position that. east jerusalem also is the capital of israel the eternal capital of the jewish people ignoring the palestinian people and one point four five billion muslims he disrespected both. and the vice president of the united states pence there's a respected all these people it's billions of people and now he's talking about the palestinians the suspect being the vice president when he went to pakistan respect him for what for all this plus let me let me say something about the money the money was almost and your report said one point two billion dollars but it kept going down and they kept pressuring the palestinians into surrendering land that their dignity and cooperating with the israelis and and the going and doing the dirty work of the israelis through the palestine i thought that the police force that was being paid from that money a little just doesn't have a very clear going to

thomas browning the new secretary general of the organization for security and cooperation in europe mr graham and your think you are very much for your time it's been roughly since month since month since you accepted the position pledging to reinvigorate the organization to specifically focus on dialogue and reviving trust. i wonder if the practical reality of the past six months has perhaps. i think. assumed this office i knew very valuable. expecting me. five familiar bits you know you see. one of my previous job so i was this permanent representative. to the u.n. here you know for five years i chaired the permanent council in two thousand and fourteen. i chaired it then we started the crisis in around ukraine so i'm very familiar of it this institution familiar with its processes you're familiar with the challenges. you often talk about the restoration of trust as the key to the effectiveness but what makes you believe that the organization stakeholders have reached a point when they valued that trust over their immediate policy objectives. look i think one of if not the key challenge in

mr. graham: i'd ask unanimous consent to be able to complete my remarks. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. graham: i want to thank my colleagues on this side of the aisle who have joined in this debate in having your voices heard. you're on the right side of history. you're where america will be. it's just a matter of time until we get there. to my colleagues on the other side, i appreciate your passion, but i think you're on the wrong side of history. what are we trying to do here today? we're trying to proceed to a bill. it's called a motion to proceed. but i think what we're trying to do is proceed to a better america. we're one of seven nations on the entire planet that allow abortion on demand at 20 weeks. that's the fifth month of pregnancy. what do we know about unborn children at that stage of development? we know for a doctor to operate on the unborn child they provide anesthesia because it hurts the child and no doctor wants to hurt the child in an effort to save the child's life. listen to what i said. medical practice dictates that

mr. graham and hopefully we can pursue those and hopefully his statement about how far he wants to go and who he wants to include will predominate. yesterday,a tweet the memorable line from the , something the president has said before in private. the president said americans are dreamers. you tweeted you have it backwards. rep. hoyer: americans are dreamers, but his comment was we understand you dreamers, many of them came with us. i had a young woman. rep. hoyer: you did a facebook live. quite she was a wonderful 19-year-old who came from el salvador. she is now in college and wants to be a social worker. delightful young woman. i had nowhere near the poise she had. she is a dreamer. she dreams of making a life here. most came to this country. they dreamed of a better life for themselves and their families. we are dreamers to, of course that is the case. americans have vision. americans have made a great country because of that vision, and willingness to work hard. but the point is, the overwhelming number of americans, almost 90% are saying and identifying these young people who came h

mr. graham in the senate and a couple in the house. hopefully we can pursue those. hopefully his statement about how far he wants to go and who he wants to include will predominate. there was a memorable line from the speech aimed at his base. there were reports this morning that it is something the president has said before and private. the president said americans are dreamers, too, and you tweeted -- you have it backwards. >> well, americans are dreamers, but his comment was, well, we understand you are dreamers, many of them came with us -- i had a young woman, gabriella fernandez -- i did a facebook live, and she is a wonderful 19 yield a came from all salvador at the age of four. she has got to elementary school, middle school, high school, and she is now in college and wants to be a social worker, delightful young woman. at 19, i had no were near the poise that she has. she is a dreamer, and she dreams of making a life here, which is why most people can to this country. they dreamed of a better life for themselves and their families. i think what he was doing

i am lucky enough to have joined the post in 1986, to have known mrs. graham have interacted with her often. i can hear her voice, you know, when i would say something particularly stupid, she would say, david, you know, how could you. she was just, she was so funny, she was so mischievous. meryl streep, it's uncanny how she captures the little quirks, the way she carried herself, her voice. it's just, it's a brilliant portrayal. and it captures the moment in which she became a great, a great owner, great publisher when she, you know, business side said as they had to, this could cost you your business. and ben bradlee, my boss, my friend said -- as he had to -- you've got to publish. and mrs. g., as i always called her, had a tough decision to make, and on that decision is built our fantastic success as a newspaper and also as a company. so i love -- people want to see the real characters who lie behind that, it's wonderful. there's an hbo documentary about ben bradlee which premiered about a mornghts six weeks ago. it's -- a month, six weeks ago. it's narrat

mr. graham: i am not going to try to get into the mind of donald trump, because i don't think there's a wholef space there. i think he's a kook. i think he's crazy. i think he?s unfit for office. amy goodman: so that was graham in 2016. but senator graham sounded different last month, when he spoke to cnn. lindsey graham: you know, what concerns me about the american press is this endless, endless attempt to label the guy as some kind of kook, not fit to be president. amy goodman: so, that is senator graham now. what about what he is saying? dr. bandy lee: i think the laypersons, the public or lawmakers, would be prone to underestimating the dangers of this president, because most people are used to seeing individuals who are healthy. it's only professionals who see those who are impaired, day in and day out. and so, the natural tendency will be to interpret what they are seeing in terms of a normal range, a normal variation of human choices, decision making and behavior. what we are -- what we feel pressed to do is to warn about the situation where someone is not acting within normal range,

about a solution to this situation and we expect the chinese authorities to immediately release mr graham in harare from detention and to allow it allows him to reunite with his family to get consular support and medical support in line with his rights because as you underlined he is a three d. citizen and thereby also a citizen of the european union are. tsuna i have no new information on the relevant situation and i have already said i don't know anything about the situation but in terms of sweden and the e.u. ambassador calling on china to release claiming high i think that is baseless any country must respect the chinese authorities handling of cases involving foreigners in china in accordance with the law i also want to mention if any foreign government really wants to protect their citizens the best thing to do is to educate them beforehand that they must respect the laws of the country in which there is. well. coming up including. my own. mother i know i'm expected to feel straight open about stories of the bright. welcome back it's time for sport i think it's tennis was started wi

mr. graham: i appreciate the majority leader allowing us to do this. to the president and presiding officer, thank you very much for trying to fix a difficult problem called immigration. i'm going to start with what drives my train the most. i want to fix a broken immigration system. there's 700,000, 800,000 daca recipients who are going to go into chaos march 5 if we don't do something. as for the president, i think you were right to end this program and give congress a chance to fix it through the legislative process. i thought president obama overreached through executive action. you said march 5 we're going to replace daca with legislation. the only way that works, mr. president, is for you to help us and lead us to the right answer. but the one thing i can tell you that drives my train the most is rebuilding a broken military. we have an opportunity here to fix two problems. help the men and women in the military who have suffered mightily from sequestration, to get them more money at a time they need it. and to provide certainty to 800,000 young

mr. president. but the graham-durbin bill ensures that we will be right back here in a few short years. when we want is to give the solution on the daca side and protect america from repeating this mistake again and again and again. let me be very clear. if we do what's on table today in the graham-durbin bill, it would allowed the parents of daca recipients legal. it would put other children at risk as they come across the border illegally. thank god most of us have never had to deal with that. imagine putting your children at risk and coming across the border illegally. but according to this precedent, they will be given legal status and be able to sponsor their parents. here we go reigniting another way. we have not done anything to being right back here a few short years from now. i believe times for action. my colleagues, last night, talked about, welshing nobody else has offered up any sliewghtses. with, that's not true. there are three republican senate bills that relate to this issue, active bills, that have been filed. the language is out there. you can read them. there is one

mr. president, have made a proposal that in the words of lindsey graham will not get a single democratic vote. it can't pass. but at the same time, the senators from illinois and new jersey and colorado and arizona and south carolina and colorado are painstakingly putting together a proposal where both sides give quite a bit. so there are sprouts of bipartisanship. more than sprouts that could save us from eyeball to eyeball and from a shutdown. my hope is that the president will understand it because the bill that was put together here in the senate was aimed, painstakingly pierced -- pieced together to meet what the president said he needed. protect the dreamers, president trump's full budget request for border security, far more than i would want to do, including funding to build barriers along the southern border, deals with family reunification. they call it chain migration for the dreamers. i know that some have said let's do it for the whole immigration bill. well, then let's talk about the 11 million, not just the dreamers. you want to do comprehensive? let's do comprehensive. bu

mr. mueller. >> senator lindsey graham explicitly warning the president against what he has been repeatedly threatening to do, and that is of course fire special counsel robert mueller. tried to get rid of him last year, but backed off when white house counsel threatened to quit. that squares with what trump pal chris ruddy said in june. the president was at least considering firing mueller. it also squares with what "fire and fury" author michael wolff says he heard last summer, although wolfe add context for my colleague lawrence o'donnell. >> the firing of robert mueller was talked about by trump, especially in this june-july period before his legal team really got in and took over. this became an obsession with the president. he had to get rid of mueller. now an obsession with this president becomes instead of an order, it becomes kind of like wallpaper. it just goes on and on and on. he repeats and repeats and repeats. and is it serious? is it just him spouting off? ultimately, that's what the special prosecutor will have to decide. and it's a key thing, because the special prosecutor has to prove

mr. swalwell: graham and durbin took him a deal and he said you make the deal, i'll sign it and we saw -- libby: i want to swing it back to the communications here to a second. as you mentioned the president during his joint address had a lot of successes by the metrics of a presidential speech staying on message, staying on the teleprompter and within that same week big news broke about his attorney general during the campaign meeting with the russian ambassador to the u.s. the attorney general recusing himself from the russia investigation. so how long lasting is this state of the union bump and can it all be destroyed wednesday morning with the wrong tweets? [laughter] donna: tuesday night. ari: it won't be that fast. [laughter] libby: he seems to be a morning tweeter. ari: they corral their message with the various inputs. international, something goes wrong, something happens at a domestic agency, it's uncontrollable. the problem with president trump is -- of his own making. he too often creates his own problem going forward. he doesn't stay on that role. this is where i agree -- and

republican senator lindsey graham alluding to mr. trump's crude language, says negotiations are turning into what he calls an "s-show," and he's pleading with mr. trump to close the deal. at a heated senate hearing, senator dick durbin reaffirmed he heard the president disparaging african immigrants using what he calls a vile and racial tone. the homeland security secretary says she doesn't recall that language. that prompted democratic senator cory booker to accuse her of convenient amnesia and complicity. >>> also breaking, steve bannon appears about the white house intelligence committee.

graham and i did. that does not mean that we have made up our minds about what happened. it is possible mr. steele told the truth and the other contradictory statements that we saw were wrong. but just like any court would do, we start by assuming that government documents are true until we see evidence to the contrary. if those documents are not true and there are serious discrepancies that are no fault of mr. steele, then we have another problem, and arguably a more serious problem. of course, even aside from these inconsistencies, the public reports about the way the f.b.i. may have used the dossier should give everyone in this chamber pause. director comey testified in 2017 that that dossier was, quote-unquote, salacious and unverified. if it was unverified in 2017, then it had to be unverified in 2016 as well. so it was a collection of unverified opposition research funded by a political opponent in an election year. would it be proper for the obama administration -- or, for ma --, for that matter, any administration -- to authorize something like that t for an investigation that intru
