ashley: do you agree with mr. peter navarro? oh, it sure makes a lot of sense to me, what peter strzok saying. this has been a very good economy for trump and there's no reason i can see out there why next year won't be a good year too. it's just what trump has been doing is phenomenon and he's getting the trade deals done, got the tax bill, he's got better monetary policies, deregulation, it's out of the sight wonderful and i see mow reason why the economy won't proceed nicely next year. ashley: now you can throw cold water on it in the form of an article in the new york times today basically says business got the tax cuts, lobbyists made it bigger, that money was used for buying back shares and what it did do was pump the deficit up nearly 50% near to $1 trillion. what about the spending aspect, art? does that concern you? >> well it does concern me, but that's something for his second term. there's no way he can get major spending reform in this administration with this congress. you've got to attack and go after entitlements

peter and mr evans, sorry. peter said he doesn't believe you.ericans call them alternative facts. british people call them lies. i won't go through them all, you know what were talking about. everybody has done it to a greater or lesser extent. i want to know why you do it. i do as well, i'd like to know why you do it. applause myjob is to try to fact check the election for the bbc. there's always been spin and it's right politicians should have the chance to persuade you of their opinion. 0ne should have the chance to persuade you of their opinion. one thing that has changed, and it has over the la st has changed, and it has over the last couple of years, no matter how much people like me say that number isn't right, on things like social media they can still be pumped out every day on facebook and twitter and all these other platforms, so these numbers go out there and checked and we heard where we started from, people are disappointed, people don't believe what they are hearing and that is a real problem. you've got to understand... why do yo

mr corbin is personally opposed to the european union he basically dislikes the european union he did not listen to the will of the british public and that is will also about catastrophic defeat and finally peter this is incredible mr corbett went after the migrants. it's at the expense of the labor department but it's not just political suicide yeah that's. on a scale that i personally ringback never saw and you call it so the moral of the story is this listen to the voice of the of the copy ok. and that and don't listen to the elites here ok glenn again going into this general election if you look at the polls i mean this is what we do for a living ok we're we're political talking heads here so we have to look at the polls the polls were grossly wrong again now this is a bill to end bias we see it time and time again where this builtin bias from the elites they want to put their thumb on the scale i mean jeremy corbyn the way he was treated i think what he had a very muddled presentation i think he hurt himself i think you hurt the party really bad but as a person i think he's of a wonderful person here but you could see that the media was putting its thumb on the scale against him though it

senator peters. >> thank you, mr. chairman. mr. horowitz, thank you for being here today and for your testimony. inspectors general play a vital role in conducting oversight. offering independent assessments of how programs are working and holding agencies accountable when errors are made. the justice department inspector general's department conducted a thorough 19 month investigation interviewing more than 100 witnesses and analyzed more than 100 million pages of materials to complete the report we'll be discussing here today. this record found that the fbi investigation and the coordination between individuals affiliated with president trump's campaign and the russian government had a proper legal and factual basis and found no evidence that the investigation was affected by political bias. politically motivated investigations are a betrayal of our bedrock democratic principles, and this institution should speak with one voice to say it will not tolerate them no matter who is in power. in this case, the report found that the

ladies and gentlemen, join me in welcoming peter thiel. [applause] mr. thiel: paul, thank you for that incredibly flattering introduction. i am worried it is downhill from there. i thought i would start with a modest story. this was from about 20 years ago, i was starting paypal and i was speaking to a friend at the hoover institute. he thought, we are trying to do this innovative, finance tech company, talk to walter wriston. my response was, who is walter wriston? he complained about how young people do not know anything about the past and how america has done a terrible job of not honoring its great business innovators and leaders. so i am honored to be here tonight to try to correct this in some small ways. and part of the wriston legacy that i think is still so present, he transformed citigroup into -- he scaled it up like crazy from the bank in the city to a bank that serves the world with atm's, interstate banking, credit cards, turning it into a money center bank. and then what the legacy draws our attention to in so many ways are the questions o

peter writes that mr. trump made clear that he would not abide by the conventions of the system that he inherited. so perhaps it was inevitable that he would go to far leading to an historic day of debate on the house floor. now trump is in a unique position as the first insurgent incumbe incumbent president in american history. and joining our conversation, jon meacham. expla explain. >> he will be running as an outsider, as an impeached president against a system of which he is the chief executive officer. so he's managed to do something -- of all the things that we could guess this, wasn't one of them. so he will say washington is rigged, the system is against me, you, and we have to change it and he will have been president for four years a that the point. so the ultimate outsider campaign being run by the man who is -- >> and what strikes me about what you say, in three years, there have been independent investigations into his claims of a rigged system are true or not, and none of them are. the idea

mrs. to enter co-author, , peter fritsch, tod? >> guest: we all are very close. we are mutually supportive of each other. we all feel we did nothing wrong and the decisions we made were in the best interest of our country's, in our societies, and that we would like to see this through in the sense that everyone should understand what it is we are worried about here. and so we are all friendly. >> host: you went through some rough patches though drink this. >> guest: of course. sort of like you're in a foxhole, right? you are like arguing should we retreat, go forward? and so the pressure certainly makes for tense times. >> host: one more name we want to bring into this conversation and that's jacob berkowitz. who is that? >> guest: jake is our analyst at fusion who is a generation or so younger than me and peter, and was hired, one of our earliest employees and happen to be the guy who got the assignment to work on project bangor at the beginning. the way you run a project is essential if have one sort of person who is the keeper of the records and does the sort

mr musk said he did not intend to call him a paedophile when he called him peter guy on twitter.e dismissed but the federal judge he asked for the lawsuit to be dismissed but the federaljudge that the case should proceed. the branding expert said social media can help or harm. there are not many ceos who personify the brand. you think richard branson, using bill gates, you think elon musk. in terms of tesla, more damage will be done by him smashing the window during the demonstration of the new pickup truck than a tweet like that. that will damage the product. he has done this kind of thing before. he smoked a joint on this kind of thing before. he smoked ajoint ona this kind of thing before. he smoked a joint on a podcast. he made the point about the private funding. but it is really just, point about the private funding. but it is reallyjust, that contradiction of who you are expecting to be. the cayman islands is engaged in a fierce debate about whether to redevelop the country's mainboard. it would initially be paid for by a group that includes the world's two biggest cruise

mr trump has described the process as an unpatriotic witch—hunt, a one—sided sham. this report from peterins flash photography. page after page, the case to impeach donald trump. overwhelming evidence of misconduct and obstruction, according to the house intelligence committee, which is controlled by the democrats. after hearing from more than a dozen witnesses, the panel concluded that mr trump solicited the interference of a foreign government, ukraine, to benefit his re—election. he put personal political interests ahead of the national interest. this is the result of a president who believes he is beyond indictment, beyond impeachment, beyond any form of accountability and indeed, above the law. and that is a very dangerous thing for this country, to have an unethical president who believes they are above the law. the white house slammed the impeachment enquiry as a "one—sided sham", which had "utterly failed to produce any evidence of wrongdoing" by president trump. but the investigation goes on, moving to the housejudiciary committee, which will consider specific charges, the articl

. >> so peter, in listening to mr. ghosn, and you have covered this very, very closely. just a couple things would you yourself feel totally comfortable with the way justice is carried out in japan? the way that peter -- or the way that carlos ghosn has talked about it, it made me a little bit uncomfortable. i was a little surprised to see ghosn's lawyer, i don't know whether it was just boiler plate or whatever, but he immediately said that mr. ghosn is at fault and shouldn't have done this and that he's subverting justice but just looking at it, i would not want to be in trouble in japan because i'm not sure we have the same justice system in our country versus theirs. >> well, one of the extraordinary things about the case in the few hours after it transpired that he was back in lebanon that we thought maybe there had been some kind of deal, maybe they reached an agreement to drop the case, but his lawyers said they had no idea he was planning to leave. as far as we know, they still hold his three passports so the lawyers say they had no idea this was going ahead now,

mr. smith. any other public comment on this item? >> hello, commissioners. peter cohen, council community housing organizations. since fernando came up, i feel i need to come up, too. we really are excited about the passing of proposition e. you heard from folks in the labor community, housing, sponsors, from the supervisor's offices. this is -- this is a whole new opportunity. i know we're here talking about a very, very specific piece represented just to educator housing. but taking a moment for you all to consider in many ways how your jobs just got easier. because all of the rezoning foresight throughout the entire city, for affordable housing, has been taken care of.

mr. horwitz, fbi and others here is what we know. peter strzok the front line supervisor, february 12, 2016 oh, he's trump, he's abysmal. i keep hoping this raid will end and people would just dump him. the problem then is that rubio will likely lose to cruise. i never quite made it and i can understand why they would not consider me a serious candidate. the republican party is utter shamblesr . when was the last competitive ticket they offered? march 3, 2016. page, god, trump is a loathsome human. peter stzrok, oh my god, he's an idiot. do you know what newsrooms all over the country people are not --dash this represents the attitude of a lot of people in america and you can have that attitude but you cannot be in the journalism business and you should not be at the fbi. if you are in the military and you saidd any thing like thisu about a commander-in-chief you would be charged with a crime. remember the mcchrystal buckle ewhere they had a barroom discussion with a reporter from the rolling stone and explicit take away, don't go to a bar

mr. nichols. the chair now recognizes professor peter a walker, professor of geography at the university of oregon. you have five minutes. >> my name is peter walker. i'm a professor of geography and environmental studies at the university of oregon. i personally observed the 2016 armed occupation of the national wildlife refuge in heinie, county oregon. after the occupation, i conducted research there for more than two, years including over 100 in-depth interviews with individuals representing all parts of the community. my observations recorded in my book, how carney county defeated takeover of the national wildlife refuge. a lot can be hearn learned, from the occupation about preventing such injuries and for safeguarding our employees and enabling them to work constructively integral communities. a great majority in harney county oppose the occupation and rejected the militants plan to launch an anti government federal evolution from harney county. i use the word militants because they used armed force and military style tactics to achieve a radical political goal. the situation was explosive.

mr. mueller, look at peter strzok he has these texts with lisa page.we found out all about him. dan bongino was with us about 40 minutes ago and he says he finds it ironic that lisa page says she is upset that the president has called her out. here is mr. bongino. >> lisa page is done being quiet. we were done being quiet a long time ago too. she feels bad that the president is calling her names. is she serious? she was the lead fbi lawyer on the biggest political spying scandal in human history. you moved from an initial inquiry to a preliminary inquiry into a full investigation into the president and his team. and you are appointing bob mueller after a year of investigating and you acknowledge in front of a committee as the lead fbi lawyer on this case that you could have had, quote: literally nothing and you are upset that the president hurt your delicate sensibilities by calling you a name? steve: so, anyway, she is obviously trying to restore her good name. we will see what the inspector general has to say about it next week. meanwhile peter strzo

peters. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i just want to clarify after some of the line of questions just so we're clear for the record and you can answer these first couple of questions with a yes or no if that works for you, mr. horowitz. did you find any documentary or testimonial evidence that the decision to open the investigation was political? >> we did not. >> did you find any documentary or testimonial evidence that the decision to open the investigation was motivated by bias against president trump? >> we did not. >> your report states that in mid 2016, the fbi was investigating attempts by russia to hack into political campaigns, parties, and election interference, is that correct? >> right. we put that in there for background purposes. correct. >> your report also states that the fbi received information from a friendly foreign government that russia offered to assist the trump campaign, is that correct? >> correct. we lay out the precise words that mr. papadopoulos reportedly stated. to the friendly dust to the f

peter defazio‘s response was the result is not satisfactory. that didn't please lawmakers who to go further, and eventually, under pressure, mr dixon did admit that ista kes pressure, mr dixon did admit that mistakes were made by the faa. now to the uk, because voters had to the polls today, so it will be a long night for traders, especially in the currency markets. with the pound and dollar now standing at 1.3 two. you can hear more on our website with oui’ can hear more on our website with our editors‘ analysis and there will be no easy business report tomorrow morning —— $1.32. please stay tuned to bbc world news. surprising absolutely nobody, the us central bank held interest rates steady overnight. the fed also gave its forecast for the us economy going forward. samira hussain is outside the fed headquarters in washington, dc. one of the reasons you saw the fed didn‘t raise interest rates is because if you look at the labour market in the united states, it is still pretty strong. we are seeing that it continues to be adding jobs monthly to the us economy. if you look at the way that households are spending, so how much people are spending, s

with the british theatre teacher, so i was hugely impacted by peter sellers and british actors, now gary 0ldman and everyone. from india i think mrchan, obviously — it's like, you know, mr bachchan is like a birthmark for actors, you have to have it. otherwise you can never really become an actor. i always learn what not to do, or what to do from those actors. i love actors, so these three or four people essentially, yes. you have been more than successful with yourcareer, but in recent times, a couple of your films have not done so well. why do you think that is, is it to do with changes in the industry, or what are your thoughts about that, really? i have been doing this business for so long, and people get a little disturbed because you make all films with a lot of effort and happiness and goodness, but goodness and happiness does not a good film make, you have to tell a good story. so with due respect to all the other people involved in the films that have not done well, i think we just made bad films, it is as simple as that. because in india, everyone knows how to play cricket, and how to make movies. laughter and applause.

mrs. pelosi was make similar noises they were lead by more me radical peter. party. elizabeth: bill mcgurn thank you. >> thank you. elizabeth: why elizabeth warren and bernie sanders will lose battle on ground states, a big obstacle they likely will not overcome, this story next. i try to find companies that turn these challenges into opportunities. it's these unique companies with creative business models that will generate value for our investors. that's why i go beyond the numbers. that will generate value for our investors. as a doctor, i agree with cdc guidance. i recommend topical pain relievers first... like salonpas patch large. it's powerful, fda-approved to relieve moderate pain, yet non-addictive and gentle on the body. salonpas. it's good medicine. hisamitsu. most people think as a reliable phone company. but to businesses, we're a reliable partner. we keep companies ready for what's next.

mr trump is almost certain to be acquitted but more high drama is guaranteed. peter. i'm joined now by lewis lukens. he's a senior partner with signum global advisors and a former deputy chief of mission of the us embassy in london. thank you for coming in to talk about this. it is a remarkable moment, even though the script is quite predictable. it is and we all know what is going to happen but it is an historic moment and donald trump will go down in history as one of only three presidents to have been impeached. our correspondent said earlier today that the real war over this will be about legacy, through to the november presidential elections next year, and beyond. what sort of impact do you think this process will have on photos? firstly there was a growing movement in the house, not for the articles impeachment, that will be interesting to watch —— impact on voters. if the house decides to not send the articles to the senate so the senate can acquit the president. there is some thought that is a smart tactic for democrats but assuming they do send them and the

mr. moore? i said, those are your words, not mine. >> she thought she could, by grilling peter, uncover the evilmonster. >> reporter: assistant attorney general david drewliner was pete's wrangler during the trial. >> i was completely satisfied there was no monster to uncover. so i, for the most part, let her go at him. >> reporter: a courtroom tactic not appreciated by pete. >> after the first day i said, you guys need to get this lady off of me. she's on me like a dog on a piece of raw meat. they looked me right in the eye and said, there is nothing we can do for you. this is an open investigation and we have to let her ask anything or the jury will think we're hiding stuff. you've got to be kidding me. >> one hour of his testimony felt like eight. i can tell you that. it was excruciating because i knew what he was going through and i was waiting for him to explode any minute. >> reporter: paul's attorney linda parisi claimed that pete somehow planted the imprint of the bomb diagram in paul's home. >> mr. moore who works at that desk daily? he never notices it? if he is your culprit, he never

we'll hear from peter in new york, republican line. >> caller: good morning, mr. blankenhorn. i think that what you and your organization is doing is great. but i believe the problem is more in washington than it is among the public. on 90% of the issues, politicians basically agree and they're just running the government. and it's that very small, what you had named already, issues that divide people. and republicans or democrats it seems to be the tactic that they've been using is to demonize the other side in order to stay in power. and using those divisive issues to separate people and not to bring people together. it used to be compromise. and also another big factor is the media itself. the media today, the mainstream media seems to be more interested in giving opinion than giving the public the news. and that's very divisive also. and i think that's a larger problem than people -- because i've always believed in dialogue and if you could convince me that what you're saying is valid, i'm willing to listen. but it seems to me that particularly the mainstream media is more

peter. >> thank you. tremendous honor. thank you. >> mr.personally for a moment and just tell us what does it feel like to be the third president in u.s. history to be impeached? >> well, i don't feel like i'm being impeached because it's a hoax. it's a setup. it's a horrible thing they did. they happen to have a small majority and they took that small majority. and they forced people. and, you know, they said, oh, i watched pelosi out there saying, oh, no. we don't want to talk to anybody. they put the arm on everybody. they tried to get 'em to do what they had to do. many of those people were like jeff where they didn't want to vote that way. but it doesn't feel -- to me, it doesn't feel like impeachment. last night, i said it. i -- i -- we had a great time last night. the room was packed. thousands of people couldn't get in. a section that really is a pretty much 50/50 section in terms of democrat/republican, we had every one of those people is voting for trump/pence. every one of 'em. and it's michigan. an important state. we brought ba

but, peter, of course, as we keep saying, it hasn't really changed. it's very, very unlikely, though, that mrg to be removed from office. this is really about influencing voters, isn't it, in the presidential election next year? yeah, as far as the democrats are concerned, yes, it is. they may well be hoping that if there aren't witnesses, if there aren't documents, that there will be some sort of blockbuster piece of evidence that might change the minds of some republicans, but that's seeming incredibly unlikely. we are just on the edge of the 2020 election campaign, this senate trial will be taking place just weeks before the caucuses, and the primary elections are really the first stage as the democrats are getting down to the final few candidates, as their choice to compete against president trump at the next election. so, it's a crucial time for them. anything they can do to influence voters during this time period of course is all—important. stay with us on bbc news. still to come, tap to eat: the electronic device that means healthy school meals for thousands of schoolchildren in kenya
