so. ..nell�*s situation is not permanent either. ..it�*s like i'm making. it sounds like you think i'm making an argument, but i'm not — i'm making a story, which is a different thing. no. and it comes back to your determination not to be a capital p political writer, i guess. well, we all have things in our life where we turn around and say, "what was that about? " you know, so that's a very good question for a novelist. and also the turn, the turn is also interesting, how she leaves it behind. well, people will have to read the book to see how she does do that. yeah. because one of the key things about making a novel is that you have to put your character into a difficult situation. so it's the, you know, it's a narrative. ..device as well as everything else. we began with thoughts about ireland and i want to end with thoughts about ireland, because it strikes me that, during the course of your now pretty long writing career — because you've been at it for, what, three or four decades? oh, i'm not counting. i'm not counting. well,

the narrator, an old man who wanders london alone, runs into nell when she is lost and in need of help guileless cherub gives him her trust and friendship, and so instantly cheers and inspires the old man in a way almost any reader would instantly understand. i love these little people, the narrator says, and it is not a slight thing when they who so fresh from god, love us, as i had felt pleased at first by her confidence. i determined to deserve it. i still get that feeling even after 17 years. and even when again and again i failed to deserve it. so it's easy to these days that we're not good. but the love of a little one reminds us that we good, that you are good. could you be better? could i be better? yes. but nothing will inspire you to be better. more than taking your back. that burden of love. thank you very much. i don't know how many of you in this room have been lucky enough to get early glimpse at tim's book, which i think i was one of the first people to read and which i just adored. i only have two kids to your six, but it was. and i know it's just me asking you question

and what some of those russian solders told our ian pan nell about being left behind by their commander reporter: tonight, the gun battles raging inside russia. ukrainian special forces releasing dramatic new video they say filmed in the last week, troops twisting grenades into russian trenches. we were taken to the border crossing today, where this extraordinary operation began. two weeks ago, the ukrainian military came barrelling down this road. you can see an american humvee there heading into russia. and conducted possibly the most audaci audacious operation of this war so far. ukraine says it captured hundreds of enemy fighters. today we were taken to meet the prisoners of war zelenskyy calls his exchange fund. the men, all young, all conscripts, agreed to talk to us. we've hidden their faces to protect their identities. the young soldier says, when they started shelling us, our commanders abandoned us. so, to be clear, your commanders fled and left you? yes, they left. soon, they were captured, and here they sit, glad to be off the battlefield but desperate to go home. david, wha

[laughter] that's really what happened, and congressman nells from texas -- neils, i'm sorry, he's theeported that, and he sent a letter to homeland security getting, asking for more information. they never got a response. pete: it's almost like they wanted it to happen. rachel: welsh, they don't love their citizens. pete: both can be true. they wanted it to happen, they want to import future voters, so they look the other way. and then kamala harris has the gall to say i'm for enforcing the border, i'm going to the maintain criminality. everything you're talking about is a sham. and so people in colorado, this isn't just texas, this isn't just border states, colorado affected by this kind of complete lawlessness. speaking of south america, other developments there, we talked about it a little bit earlier in the program, but a brazilian judge, a judge many brazil, has now ordered the banning or suspension of x in brazil amid a feud with elon musk. they're fighting over representation in brazil and all that, but that's all a smoke screen for saying we can't control what people say on x

committed to driving forward in a holistic, responsible and cost effective approach for the sents nell program -- sentinel program. i mention holistically because when we think about what it's going to take to modernize the icbm leg, it really is a project that has no other comparison in the department of defense in terms of its size, its scale, its complexity. when you think about the ground infrastructure across five states, massive geographic area to cover, our airmen, our maintainers, our defenders prepared with the training and equipment to make that transition, building the new missiles and systems that need to be interconnected, not only with the nuclear enterprise, but also of these other capabilities that we're building, and then of course in light of physical and cyber threats that we may face, certainly today and into the future, we really need a holistic approach for how we are going to address this. the other leg of the triad that the air force is responsible for is of course the bomber. the stealth bomber, the b-21 is moving forward on track and the nuclear-capable b-21 w

about two behalf years ago, congressman nells out of texas got information from border patrol that ourhe prisons were being emptied, and he and a bunch of congressmen, republican congressmen, wrote homeland security and said, hey, wait a minute, why is border patrol looking out for prisoners from venezuela, what a do you know about that? if never responded. they have known for a long time americans, and they never closed the border. and they never told the american people really. stuart stouter i want to get to the migrants who have been trying to board school buses in southern california. >> yes. stuart: u just listen to what one of the parents had to say. roll that tape a. >> we don't know could these the migrants are illegal immigrants or aliens could be human traffickers, sex traffickers. it's a concern with our kids, you know? we want to make sure they're safe. we want to make sure they're being able to get to school safely. we have a couple kids who, i've been told from other parents, who said they were too scared to ride the bus in this morning, so one of the parents took the ki

and take a look at the first order for nell lands sat on tom of the lighthouse from 1872. 1,008 individual pieces of glass. >> reporter: wow. still looks like it's in pretty good shape. >> it's in very good shape all 1,008 individual pieces of glass are still here. >> reporter: and this, the 200,000 visitors a year, can still see. >> we're a free park. and once construction is completed, the coast guard will reinstall a light. >> reporter: which will still be a beacon to near shore sailors. some of whom use their iphones to navigate. >> this is still a useful meaningful lighthouse. if they lose their phone overboard, they're lost. if the phone gets hit by a waver, they're lost. >> reporter: but not as long as there's a ray of hope on the san mateo coast. which will still shine to prevent ship wrecks. especially if it's your iphone that crashes. >> why are they texting and -- >> i think that was brian's finger wag saying don't drive -- don't drive the boat and use your cell phone right? >> probably be paying attention but how beautiful to see how the glass was cut. that was

washington post" senior national political correspondent, and an msnbc political analyst, and doug fer nell strategist, former adviser for wes moore for governor and former adviser for the dnc. it's great to have all of you here. doug, you were actually the lead media consultant for the run of governor moore, so i watched him with particular interest last night knowing he was coming on. i would say he gave a sharp-edged reminder about donald trump's lack of military service, but i wonder big picture what you make of how this reenergized democratic party is trying to repaint donald trump. >> yeah, i think one of the challenges democrats have had with former president trump is that there's so many shiny objects around him, and if you go after a million different things nothing sticks, and i think what they've settled on is this character attack that ties who donald trump is and has been with the people he would fight for when he goes back to the white house, right? and so you're going to hear a lot about a self-interested person who only cares about himself and only making policy and doing th

>> no, they'd say nell, you take one side, martha, the other side and mary be the judge.i found this in my parents' apartment. my father ran a program for 10 years and one of the things he did, there was at the time. northwestern was the national champion of debate team and he arranged for the oxford debate team come and debate them and i've got the video here, features a northwestern student who became a major player in american politics, frank luntz. so i'm giving it to you. >> what do you hope that people got out of this debate? >> our parents who met at northwestern. we wouldn't be here if it weren't for northwestern. they loved what they learned from their undergraduate class on semantics and communication and what they really believed is that most arguments occur because people don't ask what do you mean? and how do you know? and what would mean so much to them about this debate is that that was the focus. people really talked about what do you mean, how do you know, and they listened. >> curiosity is key and often overlook. thank you again, thank you for having us,

. >> well, we're joined now by commentator scottie nell hughes.d to see you this morning, scottie. and what's your take of how the democratic national convention has gone so far? and the star studded glamour of oprah winfrey last night endorsing kamala harris? >> well, it's day three of the embellishment and fantasy land for the democrats, which did a lot of people would say was just a reflection of what the republicans had two weeks ago. but once again, this convention the other night has revealed just how polarised our political parties right now. and you have to wonder, how different would this convention be if we would, just two weeks ago, have stuck with joe biden at the top of the ticket? i mean, that would be an incredible question to ask right now. would all of these delegates, would we have the excitement? would we have the star studded djs doing the roll calls and would we have even oprah winfrey taking the risk and going out on stage like she did tonight and endorsing kamala harris, even though just a few years ago she wrote a note to d
