o'connell was a catholic.e had divorced and a remarried kappa, which in 1938, was a bit of a problem. he had also gone to spain on an inspection tour, if you will, of the forces that were engaged in the spanish civil war in the late 1930s. he came back very much supporting the republican side of the spanish civil war, while the catholic church was very much identified with the national side, the franco side. o'connell is not only crosswise with the church because of his divorce and remarriage, but also because he has taken on the church in a high profile way with his position on the spanish republican movement. and he loses that election in 1938. in part because the bishop of helena instructs the catholic priest across the district to speak out against o'connell from the pulpit. i document in the book that wheeler had his own meeting with the bishop, i think encouraging him to do exactly what he did. so he could be a tough political operator for sure. as i said, wheeler had friends across the political spectru

we're going to go back to chris o'connell. understand you just heard some more shots fired. >> about 3 minutes ago we heard two rounds of gunfire, each about six or seven shots a piece coming about a minute after one another. we saw police officers scurry from the scene, many of them wearing their tactical gear. not sure exactly where the gun shots came from. if it was from the gunman or police. right now the situation is still unfolding. gunman still held at bay, holding police barricade right now. several hundred police officers here in north philadelphia from all parts of the city converging here, supporting the five police officers who have been shot. we can only assume that the person they are looking for is that gunman. it happened about 4:30. police were neighbors here in this neighborhood say they heard lots of gunfire. and then police swarming to the scene. short time afterwards. we came up to the scene up broad street. broad street was probably four or five blocks thick with traffic of police vehicles outside the are

he wins the election, beats jerry o'connell. one of the new things i think that i provide in the book is a little more of the back story about how that came about. o'connell was quite an interesting character, he grew up in butte, went to carol college here in helena, at a very young age was elected to the state legislature, still very young age was elected to the public service commission. at age 28 was elected to the congress for the first time. 1936 in that big democratic sweep that year. almost immediately he positions himself to the political left of wheeler and looks very much like he's going to be an adversary, a wheeler adversary within the democratic party. wheeler sees this coming and cuts it off at the pass, so to speak, in 1938 by helping orchestrate a republican campaign to beat o'connell. he had an interesting set of allies in that race, one was this guy right here, ed crany, broadcast pioneer, very close friend of wheeler's. crany basically managed thorkelson's campaign. in crany's papers in the archives are his r

jackie: for more, let's bring in ford o'connell, pacific o'conne. he said we don't want an even deal with china. we want the terms to be even better for the united states. this is where sort of politics and business really sort of have a crossroads because the president is using this political posturing to get an end goal that will have an impact on markets and the economy overall. do you think he is doing a good job in these back and forth negotiations? >> he is absolutely trying his best. understand we haven't done anything about china in the last 30 years. one great thing he could do, go to the wto to change china to most developed nation status. right now they're shirking responsibility at the wto as well. absolutely this is the right time to do it. essentially china is in the worst economic situation since the 1990s. essentially also there is a lot of companies that are leaving china, like apple, dell, they're relocating in southeast asia. as long as that continues to happen, it will drive china to the table. the question whether or not which g

jonathan o'connell.-- this is an interesting detail, they reviewed this and said there were no concerns. how can that be? >> well, they said the attorney general could go forward with it. we don't know the specifics of the review. but no one said this breaks a law or ethics guideline this this violates. you know, this is a private party that mr. barr holds annually. sort of a holiday party in irish music party. and he says through representative that he tried to book at other hotels, that they were booked. and he chose the trump hotel because of that. and not because he is trying to curry any kind of favor with the president. and some people are sort of taking issue with that. >> well, here is a very specific issue. this d.c. hotel is the center of two ongoing lawsuits about whether trump is violating the constitution by accepting payments from foreign governments who stay at the hotel, many of them choose to stay there as well. of course trump is being defended in the cases by lawyers for the justice de

"outfront" now, "washington post" reporter, jonathan o'connell and former director of the office of ethicsing financially. of course, it would be a boost to have a number of world leaders and their entourages staying there. but also the possibility, i think, i would imagine, the assumption that he would profit from such a trip? >> sure, doral is one of the most important preoperatives in the president's entire portfolio. he bought it for about $150 million. he borrowed very heavily to acquire it. spent a ton of money renovating it. and in the last few years, since he's become president, it has fallen on fairly hard times. revenue fell quite dramatically from 2015 to 2017. all sorts of major groups that used to book events there, corporations, associations, et cetera, are not doing business there the way they used to. so, you know, obviously, this would be a major event if he actually gets the g-7 to go there in terms of revenue and money for him. but also, even if he doesn't, just to have that platform and talk specifically about, you know, sort of extolling the virtues of the property, it

joining me is "washington post" reporter jonathan o'connell and "los angeles times" white house reporterhan, really fascinating report on the bar story and the first thing that comes to mind when you see the headline is, there's a lot of hotels and a lot of ball rooms and a lot of places to hold parties in washington, d.c. that might not raise questions of ethics. so what can you tell us about why this hotel now? >> sure. well, this is a party that barr holds every year, it's sort of a mix of a holiday party and, you know, sort of irish music and a representative for the attorney general said that he preferred the willard or the may flower hotels, but those were booked, and that trump was the one, you know, that had space for him. obviously there are a lot of luxury hotels in washington now where obviously a far away out from december when the president is, so it's hard to believe that he would not have had any other options to pick for his party and he chose one that is obviously drawing a lot of attention. >> and the attorney general, jonathan, is he not the official who would be in ch

here with me now is business presenter dominic o'connell. the high street is really struggling? lobbied the government to change it, they say it is not fair, online retailers do not have to pay the same level of tax, its nest rates are typically about 8% of the turnover of a physical retailer, for an online retailer it is about 2%, so it is another thing pushing the high street out of business. we spoke to the boss of harrods, the biggest single business ratepayer in the uk, 18.5 billion p a year. they say their competition, house of fraser, has gone into administration. another query they have with the system is a take so long to change, the rate has barely changed, they will not benefit from that for another seven years. thank you very much. a 16 year old boy has died after a stabbing in north—west london. police were called to munster square in camden last night, where the victim was pronounced dead at the scene. no arrests have been made. spending on school uniforms reaches a peak at this time of year and can be expensive for parents. in scotland, wales, and northern ireland
