you have a new administration coming in. have now, these accusations that russia is behind this massive, massive hack on the u.s. government and private enterprise in the u.s.. where does it take things? >> uhh, well, actually, first, levy asked my esteemed colleagues from the united states, just one small question. for what purpose, for what purpose russian hackers are russian government needs to happen hacking the u.s. computer systems for the consecutive almost two years or even more? so what is the purpose? because at the same time, russia can accuse the united states of hacking the russian sensitivity organizations and security agencies computer systems. so what is the purpose of all of that? who are actually the winner of all of these arguments actually? and the regarding, regarding the future relations, from the new administration of president elect, mr. joseph biden. i do not think that there will be much change in the bilateral relations between the united states and the russian federation, because the mistrust and

you with this new administration coming in if they don't get it right? rev. barber: thank you for having me. first of all, we have to align systemic racism as systemic poverty. then when we talk about racism, we have to talk about all of its dynamics. black people but not just police brutality. resegregation of public schools, disparity in health care and economics, mass incarceration. we have to talk about racism and how we treat and still do not have just immigration policies and we have to talk about the continued mistreatment and refusal to treat our indigenous brothers and sisters right, but we also have to deal with the fact that we have before covid 140 million poor people in this country, 43% of the nation, at 60.9% of black people are poor and low wealth, but we also have 66 million white people who are poor and no wealth, that is 31% of white people. we have to talk about race and poverty together, we have to deal with the 52 million people who work without a living wage, we have to deal with the fact that over 50% of black people work every da

this as joe biden continues to build his administration introducing his new economic team and planning a new stimulus push and executive actions in the first 100 days. a cdc advisory panel voted to recommend that health care workers and residents of long-term health facilities should get covid-19 vaccines first. the urgency for a vaccine growing as death counts are growing to new highs. with the new hospitalizations in the united states nearing 100,000, a new record. let's go straight to the chief white house correspondent. bill barr warned of possible fraud when i interviewed him before the election, but tonight is not buying into the president's bogus claims. >> reporter: this may be the most official significant official contradiction of president's cries that he was cheated out of a second term. william barr who has been very loyal to the president said federal prosecutors have not uncovered any voter fraud extensive enough to up end the results. he was here for about two and a half hours officials say for a previously scheduled meeting. but hard to imagine barr's comments won't co

new u.s. administration to come in -- march to wait for the new u.s. ration to come in. >> if you look at turkey right now, they are stretching their capabilities to the extent they are involved in libya, the east mediterranean, the syrian conflict, they have problems with the americans, they have their own economic problems. isn't this the moment of reckoning for president at a to say, i would rather negotiate a dignified settlement with all those key allies instead of a confrontation? in a confrontation, the turkish economy could pay a price. >> that is correct but erdogan is already giving a hand to the european union and the united states. turkey in libya many times stated an offer that france is opening an area for the russian naval base inside libya and that will threaten the security of nato and the southern flank of the eu and turkey offered it many times, but the turkish backed government is supported by the fence and eu, no one came out to the -- again, let's look at the problem in syria. the syrian crisis is a crisis for the european side. re

one of the cornerstones of a new administration's policy will be simple, wear a mask. >> he has said mask mandate, has laid down some specifics from day one. other than that, what specifically will this administration do to turn this pandemic around? >> and the 100 days of the mask, he's urging. he's not saying, punishment, they don't have to, but he's saying as a leader, please everybody, work with me here, for the first 100 days let's everybody just wear a mask. and see the outcomes there. because of course the scientists and the public health officials tell us there will be really great outcomes if everybody does wear a mask when they're in public and outdoors. it is about getting through the pandemic, around making sure that everyone has access to the vaccine, and that they take it. and that's going to be about, one, determining the priorities about who gets it, at what phase. it's also going to be about having a plan for distribution. and working on a real issue, which is encouraging the american people to trust the science. >> when you see leaders on both sides, when it comes to

played a small role in helping to draft sections of the transition memos, from the bush administration, to the new obama administration, that detailed the work of the office of terrorism and financial intelligence. i wasn't there when the obama transition team entered the building that day, and i did not envy their enormous task of laying the groundwork to govern. i did envy, however, the experiences and opportunities that were waiting for them. when i went back to work at the treasury department in april of 2017, the few remaining folks from the transition were filtering out the magnitude of their hard work was on display, as a shift from one administration to the next was well underway at treasury, just as it had been when i left eight years earlier. indeed, the process works. a combination of political experts and dedicated career civil servants keep our government running and advancing during a change in administration. transitions take know-how, they require grit, and they demand steadiness. and i have the great privilege today of introducing two gentlemen that embody all three, rr and john-

just want to ask one quick question about a new administration, and i am under no illusions that a newadministration will solve any problems, although i'm also optimistic and hold out hope that there will be some positive changes but i would love to hear from each of you a little bit about anything that excites you about the possibilities of an incoming administration or if you want to put it differently if you were an advisor to the new administration, what would you urge them to consider that may be misunderstood? [speaking native language] francisco, let's start with you. >> i think i actually don't try to think of what i do as a policymaker, i guess maybe because i've been inside the institution and i've seen how resistance and side change it is really set up to be. i think it's important for us to recognize what power we do have an i think the power that we do have as individuals and as citizens is actually in a lot of ways greater than to change these institutions that if we were an advisor on the inside. at this juncture is important to keep our vision, as i said earlier, focuse

news max, oaan. can put this in the context of what this means to the incoming biden administration? >> yeah, that's a great question. john durham was appointed by william barr, to be an investigator, to lead an investigation into the origins of a russia probe. basically to look at whether or not the probe that became the mueller probe should have been opened in the first place and whether or not there's any wrongdoing in the process. this is on top of countless investigates, kasie. you've covered them on the hill. we've covered them in the justice department saying there was no political bias in the early days, in the early fisa warrants, what led to what we know as the russia probe. but john durham was called in by william barr to do a more thorough review. william barr has constantly turned to the durham investigation and say, look, there might be something there. even after the report, he said, we think this is premature. we think john durham is going to find more. now, barr didn't get his wish in the fact that durham didn't put out his investigation, even an interim report, befo

that washington was abandoning one arms treaty after another but of course there will be a new administration in charge at this point and something that we heard from waldemar putin was expectations that renew talks on either renew treaties or new treaties can happen in the year end this is something that the quantum one is looking forward to in order to either get back to international stability and security or achieve new levels of it so far in the past few years it's only been deteriorating that is according to president vladimir putin now moving on to different topics the press conference began with a range of questions that have to do with cold it and the vaccines and one question was straightforward whether the russian president has taken one to that mr putin would reply that he's not in the age group that is recommended for vaccination at this point so right now it's just not that safe to do it but what lattimer putin with the advice to everyone else not only russians but the rest of the world is to use the vaccine because a number of safe vaccines have already been developed including

characterize what the new administration is because they want to promote migration, but that is not the fault of the administration coming in but a manipulation by criminal groups for their own nevada aryouse purposes. stef: how should the biden administration and confirm the justice secretary, how do they lance policies with the need to enforce the law at the border? secretary chertoff: you can be compassion nature and firm and firm in a way that respects the dignity that nevertheless enforces the law. the good news is here that ncoming ma york aswas the head reality. and and he has of those issues when the obama administration was running the department. you need to first of all understand what is driving people to come here illegally. sometimes it's natural disasters and sometimes it is violence in their country and part of the strategy is to address the issues. cond, people have legitimate refugee claims or have a claim to right of asylum and adjudicate those cases expeditiously and bringing more people on board to do it. when you have to hold people pending a proceeding you should

where it was in 1968, the year the fair housing act was passed, it's going to take, in the new biden administration and in the new congress, intentional efforts to create, if you will, more opportunities. you have to address the credit scoring system which has biases built into it. you have to provide down payment assistance and second mortgages. you have to initiate to an infrastructure program a plan to build new units of both affordable rental and affordable homes for ownership, and you have to address this loan denial rate, this disparity in terms of how banks and others provide capital by not just fixing the loan side of the capital formation equation, but what i call the venture and risk side, the equity side of the capital formation equation. are there things that can being done? i have some hope that this biden administration is going to recognize it. the president-elect has lifted up racial justice, the need to do something different when it comes to economic policy. can we leapfrog? can we jump? i am certain we can make progress, but it cannot be business as usual. and these policies are

from all the new administration of president elect that now he was confirmed as a as a president who won the elections mr giles of biden. i don't think that there will be much. change in the by later all relations. between the united states and the russian federation because. the nice thrust and the years so far the anymore city especially after the ukraine events have been doing their bad thing and these accusations of hacking at saks actually this is another story which actually made its contribution to that was winning all them over all our relationship between the united states and america all. almost every day we heard here in moscow and in the indian national media that there is one story or you know this story in the united states which is certain so face that that russia is. that russia is behind this who actually that we know these we need good relations and president putin said that we need just to maintain normal. stable the walking relationship with united states especially within u.s. ministration president joseph biden so i don't think that there biden will actually . b

he will continue his investigation into the russia probe under a new administration.e house right now. so more on this as we get it here this hour. meantime, the president tweeting that the state of georgia was scammed. it's all hand on deck for republicans there. the rnc telling fox news that they sent 500 staffers and thousands of volunteers to get out the vote for kelly loeffler and david purdue. president trump set to campaign there saturday. rick scott of florida here with us. good afternoon. a lot to get to. >> good afternoon to you. >> bill: what about the secretary of state's office talking about 250 cases of illegal voters being tried to be signed up by progressive groups? >> homeland security is something that we have to look into. we have to make the american public that the elections are fair. we have to have voter i.d. or signatures match. we have a bill for mail-in ballots here in florida. you have to make sure there's transparency. poll watchers have to watch what's going on. you do these things, the american public will be comfortable. mean time, a run

schools is one that is currently associated with republicans, and so hearing that message from a new administration that is not inublican may help to put, particular, some people who very much did not trust the trump administration a bit at ease and the people, of course, who do not trust the biden administration, many wants schools open anyway, so they might agree with the message even if they do not agree with the messenger, so i think in some ways, dr. cardona in particular but just the biden administration in general is making a better case for this appeal. the pessimistic point would be that most administrations have a real learning curve when they start off, and i am not sure that the biden administration more generally but maybe the department of education more specifically is going to know how to message and how to unite right off the bat, and there are some ways in which i think this administration brings greater experience and awareness and is coming in with their minds may be a bit more wide open and less idealistic than we saw, for example, when obama took office, but i think there is s

if he vetoes it then they have to go back and try to re-work something with the new administration. >> my gut level on this, frankly, is the president, if he's seeking the repeal of 230, there are other legislative ways to do that and there are other bills that are coming up. >> the fact that both speaker pelosi and leader mcconnell have agreed to bring the ndaa to a vote is a big sign because mcconnell is famous for not bringing things to an actual vote if he doesn't think it will pass or there is a real threat. it isn't likely that the president would veto this particular bill and the republicans would get the 230 repeal elsewhere. that said, if there was one thing we've learned over the last four years is the president prides itself with unpredictability and we'll see what happens in the next couple of weeks. >> line for military, retired and active military is 202-748-8003 and joe in fayetteville, south carolina. good morning, joe. >> good morning. i just find that this is a politicization of something that has not been politicized before, just like they've been politicizing the j

then we will talk about criminal justice reform in the new administration with the president of the vera institute of justice. washington journal, live at 7:00 a.m. eastern wednesday morning. join with your phone calls, comments, text messages and tweets. "washington journal" continues. host: joining us is clarence anthony the ceo of national league of cities thisto talk about how pandemic impacted cities and their budget. how will this $900 billion relief package help u.s. cities? >> first of all ash guest: first of all, thank you for this opportunity to talk about what is happening in cities and villages across america. what we were looking for an stimulus bill was money directly to state and local governments, to be able to assist the frontline leaders, who are on the streets every day in the neighborhoods and associations and supermarkets talking about -- talking to residents about what is happening in their life. we are more than disappointed. we are just angry because there is no question those dollars going to small businesses and housing, and other programs, are in the $82 billio

that said, we do have a new administration that is coming into office injust a have a new administrationust a few weeks, and president—elect biden has already said they do not expect a trade deal between the united states and the uk anytime soon, saying that the priority for him right now is very much focused on the domestic. but we heard from the us government in an exclusive interview with the bbc last week that they are looking to try to negotiate some sort of mini trade deal between the united states and the uk, something to sort of get them the initial few months, while the biden administration or the incoming biden administration, rather, sought out other things. regardless of what kind of deal that does come about, whether it is a big overarching one or some skinny little package, all trade agreements must be ratified by congress, so it may be that the united states and the uk want to get something sorted out real quickly, but the challenges that exist in the uk also exist here in the united states and it requires congressional approval. we will be watching that very closely indee

on that day he made a clear a new administration was on the move. year has passed in which bold new programs moved sometimes with success, sometimes not but always with vigor. president kennedy set the keynote for his new administration in his inaugural address. >> let us begin anew, civility is not a sign of weakness let us never negotiate out of fear but let us never fear to negotiate. >> reporter: throughout the year kennedy assembled a group of men with intellectual staff and with records as doers. hamilton heading the new foreign aid agency. the ambassador to india. ambassador to japan nato ambassador alliance for progress head. williams, assistant secretary of state for africa appeared sargent shriver, head of the new peace corps. adelaide stephenson un ambassador. william foster, now disarmament agency head and dean rusk, secretary of state. at his state of the union address, mr. kennedy put his new program squarely before the people. he had been a senator now he appeared before his former fellow congressmen in a new role as president. >> lif

>> translator: the new administrations have the opportunity to break the deadlock.it's essential for them to make pyongyang understand that if the victims' family members die before the abduction is resolved it will become a problem that will remain unsolved forever. bear in mind, north korea is not only pressed by u.n. security council sanctions but also faces economic pressure due to the coronavirus and cases of flooding. it's essential for the jnapanes government to look closely at the north korea situation and conduct talks through channels saying it is important you take steps and receive support. this is your last chance. the solution to the problem lies in the hands of kim jong un, and i think a carrot and stick approach will be necessary to get the results we want. >> thank you, atsumi. the u.n. general assembly has called on north korea to return all the abductees immediately. alongside the families of the victims the international community will be watching closely to see if there is any change in north korea's relations with the new administrations in jap

is it going to change at all now that you have a new administration that is not vehemently hostile ands is to talk about what is going on and toccountable, whether it is the outgoing trump administration or the incoming biden/harris administration. and i would argue that the biden/harris administration would welcome that. they are coming into office to do right by the american people. they know they won't get it right all the time, they know that there will be mishaps and missteps, but their hearts and minds and policies will be going to be in the right place. my job and our job between 10:00 and noon is to talk about what they are doing, hold them accountable when they get things wrong, but also laud them when they are doing things that are right for the american people but are being held up by republicans either in the house or in particular the senate side. so i don't view my job as an anchor changing depending on who the president is. but certainly depending who the president is will determine the emphasis we give to certain stories. >> so i'm going to lay this out now. this is par

we all know the new administration will ask for yet another package. it's not like we won't have another opportunity to debate the merits of liability reform and its state and local government in the very near future. thank you. [background noises] senate minority leader chuck schumer also held a briefing with reporters at the capitol earlier today. he discusses party's legislative agenda, covid-19 relief legislation and the electoral college votes. this is about ten minutes.

a lot of traders are focused on the role of the fed and what that role will be in this new administratione previous administration, their role was focuses -- focused on risk assets. today they were talking about climate control. when was the last time we hear the fed talk about climate control? all this talk about the stimulus and rate controls, it does not matter right now. it is going to matter, and it will be much more pertinent when the administration makes this transition. and the traders including myself, we're not taking that for face value until we see how the administration acts. it'sine: kris, interesting. fed chair powell saying the treasury's does not need the federal reserve, it does not need his presence, but many would debate at the moment, it does. if we do see the initiation move to where it wants to go, what they care about is inequality. they hoped to drive unemployment to the very lowest possible. they want a hotter market, a hotter overall economy. why is that so different from what supporting asset classes is like? kris: now it is two different things. before, a lot

treaty and the treaties, as i understand, with the new american administration with reuniting this is still very dim. but could it be if these treaties are not expanded, there will be a new arms race and russia will not be strong enough o participate and keep up with others, with other countries? another question is about supersonic weapons. could this really change the geo political balance in the world? also, all the statements that you have made about these weapons during your previous statements were all of these statements not true, everything is completed? are all these types of weapons ready to use? president putin: speaking first about the arms control treaties, speaking first about the new tart treaty, like i said, we wanted america to accept and agree with us that we should extend the treaty and from what i understand, mr. biden himself, president-elect biden has said extend s willing to these treaties. we are ready for that but we need to get an official reaction from the u.s. you said, if it is not extended, is there going to be an arms race? there is already an arms race.

the other thing i would say broadly is i think i would ask any new administration coming in, but this was also the trump administration approach, do not view the middle east mainly as a mess to be avoided. because just when you think it can't get worse in the middle east, it actually can. this is not a call for vast numbers of troops in the region or for the u.s. taking on the burden of all the regions problems, but also recognizing that our disengagement creates edging behavior that makes the situation worse. it was an uninformed redline in syria in 2013 and 2014 that led to russian intervention in the syrian civil war. that led to water now these serial episodes of mass homicide in that war such that half the syrian population is dead, wounded, or displaced. that placed a burden, as you know, not just on countries from the region but also on europe and created a political dynamic in europe where the refugee crisis that rise and we can go on about this. problems don't stay in the middle east. we have to prevent the edging behavior that blocks the path towards long term solutions. >>

new u.s. administration could mean for nations which in washington and iraq. will be up next in the studio to bring you fully up to date on the morning headlines that will be just an hour's time once again the. only one welcome to cross talk where all things are considered on peter lavelle in january there may be a new american president but what won't change is washington's stance towards iran is military conflict inevitable what is the value of diplomacy if one side fails honor agreements and what are the rands options. to discuss this and more i'm joined by my guest adam roosevelt in washington he's a national security analyst as well as a g.o.p. strategist and elmer we have scott ritter is a former intelligence officer and united nations weapons inspector and in to the end we have mohammad marandi he is a professor at the university of toronto gentlemen crossed out rules in effect that means you can jump any time you want and i always appreciate it ok let's go to professor marandi interim 1st professor marandi and over the last year iran. saw the assassina

to help us achieve our mission parts to it before we get to the new administration, what happens under the trump administration on criminal justice? >> few things happen under the trump administration on criminal justice. one, in some respects we should look back further and recognize that for the past ten years there has been ensignificant reform at the state level and the local level for the criminal legal system. reducing its impact on people, trying to reduce the number of people who are going into the system, trying to shorten sentences and produce the ntvowel punishments the existing the system. in the obama biden administration the last two years there was significant push for reform to also shrink the footprint of that. and i would say that in the trump administration, we kind of held steady. on the one hand there is a lot of the rhetoric from the president that is typical of the law and order stuff we are talking about cities of, you know, that are falling apart under democrat leadership. high rates of crime for this is something of seen for decades and decades and this led to

news story when the attorney general is caught red-handed telling the truth? i can't understand it why is such a novelty in washington under the trump administration but it a hasthis attorney general is willing to say whatever the president wanted to say and today he spoke the truth and it made the news. >> why do you think he did so? >> maybe trying to rehabilitate his resume? it's not just refreshing but startling to hear it. >> it was a very significant development, very huge development, indeed. the president has been tweeting that he, quote, won michigan, that the nevada results are, quote, fake, that the arizona results are fraudulent. how far do these words from the attorney general go in convincing the president to accept reality? >> the president's reality is 170 million dollars that he has raised since the election by these baseless foundational-less charges and been proven wrong time and time even by republican elected officials who told us the election was fair and square. >> while i have you, senator, let's turn to the desperately needed covid economic relief talks under way. the senate majority leader mitchell mcconnell has his own plan. house sp

on that day he made it clear that a new administration was on the move. ar had passed in which bold new programs moved. sometimes with success, sometimes not, but always with vigor. president kennedy set the keynote for his new administration in his inaugural address. >> so let us begin anew. remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness and sincerity is always subject to proof. let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us never fear to negotiate. [applause] >> throughout the year kennedy assembled a group of men with an intellectual stance and and with records as doers. among them, hamilton heading the new foreign aid agency. as well as the ambassador to nato, the alliance for progress had, mr. williams, assistant secretary of state for africa, sergeant shriver, head of the new peace corps. adlai stevenson, u.n. ambassador. william foster, disarmament agency head and dean rusk, secretary of state. [applause] >> at his state-of-the-union address in january, mr. kennedy put his new programs squarely before the people. he had been a sen

and then with a new administration, we've got to come back and do more. so hang in there, the federal government has got you. we've got your back. and we are finally, despite intransigence and cruelty from republicans, going to get at least something done. >> as you all know, this was very touch and go yesterday, the story with senator pat toomey holding things up. today, the story was steve mnuchin, injecting himself last minute into these talks. these were pull back the curtain for us and give us a sense of the role that mnuchin was playing. >> it's very difficult to know, you know, when the white house is suddenly going to weigh in, in a productive way. the talks were going all the way and suddenly mnuchin decides that he wants something and luckily, the speaker held strong. democrats held strong. and he did not get his way. these are important, you know, last-minute things that hold up this package. that's why we're still here. and frankly, i'm glad that we're going to be voting on this tomorrow, because we need to look at all of the text and make sur

and respect for each other so we've got a new administration full of familiar faces we've got a brand new president who used to be the vice and at this point we've got a new post to trump america with many things remaining the same and they probably won't be fixed what's been going on for the last 8 years right well america has been in the domestic abuse situation you have one side of the political already that has spent more years gaslighting lying abusing manipulating. the myelin saluting bertie impeaching and coming up with every big news story that ending everything that in its turn the population against this president doing everything they can to divide this country and now if it somehow managed through it appears install joe biden as president because for unity or not only a whole leery of this but also extremely cynical i can assure you there's going to be no unity in this country in fact i have heard many people on the right saying that they're quite excited for the next 4 years to do everything the luxe been doing to them over the last couple years but 3 full now that's an i

opened a dialogue with the soviets, he would then force the hand of the new administration, whetherit's democratic or republican to keep him in moscow and he would be able to further negotiate and come to detente. but that failed miserably for all kinds of reasons, and kennan succeeded not in opening negotiations with the russians but in angering them, and they kicked him out of the country, declared him persona non grata, which means he was not allowed to enter the country. it's a long story but he was not allowed to reenter the soviet union. the only american ambassador ever expelled in the whole u.s./russia history. so dulles saw him as a screw up. the new administration came in in january '53, and kennan still expected he would be appointed to some high position in the administration, not ambassador but some high position, and dulles basically had left kennan twisting in the wind, didn't appoint him to any position, and didn't let him know that he was not going to be appointed so kennan was literally waiting for the phone to ring. all his friends were appointed to positions, and
