turnover control of the panama canal, the management of the panama canal.s a process that took about 20 years of gradually turning over pieces and areas of the canal zone to panamanian management. so ultimately on december 31, 1999, panama received the management of the canal. the neutrality treaty was a separate treaty by which the panamanians committed themselves to maintaining the panama canal as a neutral waterway, not favoring any particular country or particular international power or actor, to treat every user of the canal equally. this has become an issue recently with the president-elect comments on panama canal. the neutrality treaty also gives the united states the right to intervene in the canal if that neutrality is jeopardized. the reason to my canal treaties were done instead of one, my understanding is it had to do with the best way to get this entire process through the united states senate, which was not an easy process but the treaties were ratified by two-thirds of the u.s. senate in 1978. they went into effect in 1979, effectivelye impl

remind our -- panama candle. remind us what it is and why it was or not important to the u.s. >> the panama canal is one of the most important interoceanic water way he's in the world. about 5% of global cargo commerce passes through the canal on a yearly basis, but for the united states it is over 40% of our container shipment passes through the canal. and about 70% of canal traffic is from the united states. we are the leading users of the canal. particularly, it is particularly important for trade between the eastern seaboard ports and the west. it cuts down about 7,000 miles of shipping distance when you traverse the canal to go from the east coast to the west coast. in terms of shipping an global commerce, the canal is a very important and perhaps the most important interoceanic waterway. we have to go back in history to understand the importance of the canal to the world and to the united states. the idea of an interoceanic canal from panama dates back to the 16th century of the spanish empire. the spaniard

why is it panama that it's marketed to the world's the panama? that is to reflect the backs to the panamanians. why is it so light skin? why is it so rich? and most importantly, how did we get here the, the street exotic night? the street to the most of the rows in front of my nose. i caught them but i most does need a b j, sir by holy michel de la. move head, veronica. the, you know, so don't know that i'm only been talking to right in the concept. the usa locust negate are looking my last task though. so during the day and i'm on a supporter license to gamble for the course. i could be most in delay. the c on constant, the main thing was when i was little, i asked my mom, why come by here be blonde. the princess is on tv or blonde. my mom just said lamar. black people are not blunt. she didn't say anything else, but i understood that people like me were not a bad. i'm like a mom on the the i don't want the warmer, but i mean the negative and i don't know what i can lucas anoine's that i got them for people who felt like annoying. i mean, i mean

the panama canal, the canals. so the strip of land extending 5 miles on either side of that can help is leased to the united states and is administered from the canal zone spell. but the my great grandfather on my mother's side came to panama in the early 20th century. he was one of a tens of thousands of black men who came from across the caribbean, looking for work in panama, in places like the canal or the railroad. the loan is a beautiful province, rich province in so many ways cold through your rich. it's also a port for the panama canal, the boat, if you want to the streets of putting on, you would see a lot of poverty. you would see me things that are falling apart, that are not for people to live in, but people are living there. and you will see a city that has been a band and by the rest of the country, the i moved to the us when i finished high school. people's shocking to me, the most people in the west have no idea that their country occupied panama build a fence around the canal and said, this is ours

and we gave the panama canal to panama, we didn't give it to china.ect�*s son — donald trumpjunior — is in greenland. it's being billed as a private visit, but comes after his father reiterated his interest in the united states gaining control over the autonomous danish territory in the arctic. donald trumpjunior isn't due to meet any officials in greenland. his father claims it's only a matter of time before itjoins the us. here's what trumpjunior had to say when he landed. we are pressed for time because we only have a couple hours of daylight so we have to see everything, but we're really excited to be here. thank you so much. here as tourists, seeing it, it looks like an incredible place. we've been talking about going for a while, i was actually supposed to be here in the spring, just something i do in my free time. an awesome time... scenery coming in was spectacular. so it's really... he says hello. we were talking to him yesterday so he says hello to everyone in greenland. nevertheless, trumpjunior�*s arrival in the capital, nuuk, prompted the

. >> the panama canal is a disgrace, what took place at the panama canal.immy carter gave it to them for $1, and they were supposed to treat us well. i thought it was a terrible thing to do. >> in a rambling press conference today trump attacked carter's legacy while carter's body was literally still on its way to the capitol to a city preparing to honor carter's life. that fight with a recently deceased president has a lot to do with trump's newfound fixation on american territorial expansion, which in turn led to a bizarre declaration that the u.s. should regain control of the panama canal. now, to understand what is going on in trump's mind here you have to go all the way back to january 9, 1964, exactly 61 years ago this week. at the time anti-american riots had broken out in panama in part over u.s. control over the panama canal. that conflict sparked more than a decade of very careful diplomacy, diplomacy which spanned the administrations of four presidents with the goal of handing control of the panama canal over to the people of panama. for most of

1 president-elect donald trump in relation to panama?— relation to panama? think we have to go back to _ relation to panama? i think we have to go back to history i relation to panama? i think we have to go back to history and | have to go back to history and go back to the facts. panama has been forever one of the strongest allies of the united states. we have worked very closely on very important issues, like counterterrorism, actually, the canal has been one of the key elements in that strategic relationship with the united states, so it has actually caught everyone by surprise because, indeed, panama has been that kind of strategic ally. yes, the canal issue was a very contentious one 50 years ago but since the treaties were signed and ratified on a bipartisan vote here in the us senate, every us administration, both republican and democratic, have not only honoured the words of the treaty but at the same time they have benefited from as i say a better running and operated canal by panama's operations. operated canal by panama's operations-— operations.

and we gave the panama canal to panama, we did not give it to china.ss, because about the panama canal because it is inappropriate, i guess, because it is a bad part of what they call our legacy but he was a good man. i knew him a little bit and he was a very fine person but that was a big mistake, giving the panama canal to panama was a very big mistake. let's bring in our panel. former republican congressman rodney davis and former democratic congresswoman kathy manning. good to see both and thank you for joining us tonight. congressman, i want to start with you, do you think as the president elect to have said that it was a mistake for the us to give up ownership of the panama canal? . , give up ownership of the panama canal? ., , ., canal? that is something that president trump _ canal? that is something that president trump has - canal? that is something that president trump has long i canal? that is something that i president trump has long stood against wasjimmy carter, president carter giving the panama canal to the country of panama. i can rem

china is at both ends of the panama canal and banning it. is at both ends of the panama canaland banning it. and is at both ends of the panama canal and banning it. and they come to see this biting, this guy who should never have been allowed even to run for president, of course she shouldn't have either. but they want $3 billion to fix the panama canal that is run by china makes a lot of money, one of the most profitable structures ever built because you have ships lined up back to florida frankly and they keep going through and the numbers are staggering, half—million to are staggering, half—million to a million dollars to ship and a ticket away from us, meaning we give it to them for a dollar. but not going to happen. what they have done to us, they have overcharged our ships, overcharged our ships, overcharged our ships, overcharged our navy. and then when they need repair money they come to the united states to put it up and we get nothing. those days are over. working with the republican majority in congress, we will cut taxes, slash regulations, raise wages, boost incomes at a pac

management of the canal to panama.s was a process that took about 20 years, gradually turning over pieces and areas of the canal zone to panamanian management until ultimately on december 31, 1991 -- 1999, panama received the management of the canal. the neutrality treaty was a separate treaty by which the panamanians committed themselves to maintaining of kent the panama canal as a neutral waterway, not favoring any particular country or particular international power. or actor. to treat every user of the canal equally and this has become an issue recently with the president-elect's comments on the panama canal. the neutrality treaty also gives the united states the right to intervene in the canal if that neutrality is jeopardized. so, the reason two canal treaties were done instead of one, my understanding is that it had to do with the best way to get this entire process through the united states senate. it was not an easy process. the treaties were ratified by two thirds of the u.s. senate in 1978 and went into effe

given the panama canal to panama with a big mistake. we lost 38,000 people, it cost us the equivalent of $1 trillion, probably the most expensive, they say it was the most expensive structure, if we call it a structure, which i guess you can, ever built. and giving that way was a horrible thing. and i believe that is why jimmy carter lost the election even more so than the hostages. those two things. host: before we go to you, i will point out that he was a story in fox news that the panama canal ceo has denied trump's claim that china is in control of the panama canal. thematically, some of the things that trump is talking about here would lead that reorientation that we referenced with my co-author. what i think we are looking at right now is a broader reorientation on foreign policy that is more focused on the western hemisphere. talking about greenland or the panama canal as opposed to some sort of far-flung and distant theater that has more or less monopolize our attention over the last 30 years -- host: are you referring to the mi

and of course, same type of relationship in panama. that said, i think there is some credibility to be given to trump's concerns about the chinese in panama. it's certainly grown over the years. you know, in 2017, panama changed its recognition from taiwan to china. they joined the chinese belt and road initiative in 2018, investments in ports and bridges and rail lines increased dramatically. they own two of the five port zone concessions in panama. so i think we should be concerned about continued growth and engagement in china. i wouldn't i wouldn't consider military force, but i think certainly engaging them diplomatically and economically to make sure we can push the chinese out of panama is something that's very important, should be considered, i might say, though, wolf, when you look at concerns about shipping and economic security, and i think, again, that's legitimate. if we go back to the broader landscape that's happening out there in the world. panama represents 5% of global traffic in terms of trade. the houthis, which hav

paul: let's talk about panama and the panama canal. let's go through some facts here.[laughter] >> chinese are not running the panama if canal. there are no chinese soldiers in the panama canal. u.s. shipping is not upcharged, the military is not upca charged to go through the panama canal. panama has a treaty with the united states, panama's respecting that treaty, you know? there's really no grounds here for what he said except perhaps that panama has a raised the toll to to go through the canal this year -- paul: is that, do they discriminate in that toll -- >> no. no, of course not. but the toll as has gone up, and i suspect that what's going on is that some of the exporters who use the canal for energy and grains out of houston are upset about the increase. what you have to keep in mind here is that there is an advisory board that the panama canal authority talks to to when it's making the case for toll increases. and the chairman of that advisory committee is a retired u.s. admiral. so the advisory board gave the canal the green light to go ahead and do this, so

trump today at his presser. >> what took lies at panama -- what took place at panama canal, jimmy carter gave it to themes there are one done -- them for one dollar, they were such on thed to treat us well. china is taken it over, they are at both ends of the panama canal. we need greenland for national security purposes, we have china ships all over. and russian ships. we're not liting that happen. the people be probably vote for independents to come to u.s. u.s. >> senator sheehy, by the way god bless you as a former navy seal and veteran, you searched in a number of theaters, i think that greenland stuff that and i think a key point for american interest. it is a chokehold, if you will. and hire -- here too, china and russia nosing around greenland. i know part it china calling its an arctic power, what is bloody nonsense, se senator sheehy what do you make of that? >> well, this is another point of strategic interest for america during world war ii and korean war and through cold war we had locations all over the pacific and atlantic to include greenland and iceland. those locations

and we gave the panama canal to panama, we didn't give it to china.s threat to put crippling tariffs on goods from canada and mexico if they don't tighten border security. and he announced a unilateral plan to completely rename the gulf of mexico. we're going to be changing the name of the gulf of mexico to the gulf of america, which has a beautiful ring. that covers a lot of territory. the gulf of america, what a beautiful name. joined by his special envoy to the middle east, donald trump says there has already been a lot of progress on efforts to release about 100 hostages held by hamas in gaza. he wants them freed before his inauguration in less than two weeks. if those hostages aren't back — i don't want to hurt your negotiation — if they're not back by the time i get into office, all hell will break out in the middle east. and it will not be good for hamas, and it will not be good, frankly, for anyone. all hell will break out. i don't have to say any more, but that is what it is. i, donald john trump, do solemnly swear... in under a fortnight his

the panama canal is a disgrace, what took place at the panama canal.ve it to them for one dollar, and they were supposed to treat us well. i thought it was a terrible thing to do. it was the most expensive structure ever built in the history of our country, relatively. it would be the equivalent of over, substantially over $1 trillion today. we lost 38,000 people. think of it, 38,000 people, they died from malaria, mosquitoes. they were unable to stop the mosquitoes. they paid people five times more to take the job. many of those people died. we gave it away for a dollar. but the deal was that, you know, they have to treat us fairly. they don't treat us fairly. they charge more for our ships than they charge for ships of other countries. they charge more for our navy than navies of other countries. they laugh at us because they think we're stupid, but we're not stupid anymore. so the panama canal is under discussion with them right now. they violated every aspect of the agreement, they morally violated it also. and they want our help because it's leaki

we're not going to go invade panama in order to get the panama canal.is all about if we have to, using a military-type presence in order to deter china so that we can achieve our ends when it comes to the panama canal and when it comes to greenland. but, no, we're not going to have troops on the ground fighting the danish. even wherever denmark is, that's not going to happen. that's not what he means. this is all bigger picture geopolitical against china. stuart: got it. stay with me for the hour, please, todd piro. we've turned to the green, not much, but a little bit. dead flat s&p, nasdaq now slipping 10 points. eddie ghabour with me this morning. we have treasury yields rising, tech stocks selling off. do you expect that to to continue? >> not in the near term, stuart. this rise in rates is no surprise surprise to us. we've been talking about inflation is going to to reaccelerate this year. and the 10-year, we believe, will ultimately get to 5% and higher at some point in time. in the near term, i expect a breather. rates have moved really fast, and

he's talked about taking over the panama canal from panama, is talk to about making candid all the 51st aid. he's called the border between the us and canada and the artificial line. so really i think it's difficult to say whether he has a concrete foreign policy goal in mind when he says these things. but i think it does betray a certain kind of mindset. perhaps it's a mindset that harkens back to his a former role in life as a realize stable goal where it was important for him to take land and own structures. but that is just me speculating, but i think there is something to it perhaps. so when he talks about his vision of america, what he's really talking about is a more expansionist vision. when he talks about making america great. again, perhaps what he actually means is going back to america with more imperialistic impulses. and i do have the feeling that so this is another layer to america 1st that we're going to end up talking about more and more as, as administration progresses. now we truly are leaving an interesting times. i'm afraid we have to leave it there. that was due to

giving the panama canal to panama was a big mistake. we lost 38,000 people. it cost us the equivalent of $1 trillion. they say it was the most expensive structure, is -- if we call it a structure -- which i guess you can -- ever built. giving that away was a horrible thing and i believe that is why jimmy carter lost the election even more so than the hostages. those two things. reporter: on ukraine, you said it is a lot more complicated. pres. elect trump: much more complicated. it would not have started. reporter: it has started. pres. elect trump: not only started, cities are largely knocked down. reporter: at this point will you make a commitment to the ukrainians that you will keep supporting them? pres. elect trump: i would not tell you if that were the case. reporter: if they do enter into an armistice or cease fire, along the lines of the french and the germans. pres. elect trump: a big part of the problem was russia, for many years, long before vladimir putin said, you can never have nato involved with ukraine. they have said that. that has been writt

i spent a lot of time in the panama canal and in panama in the last couple of years.y had a president down there that was very pro-china. now we've got a president down there, i went to his inauguration tobacco in july, me lean know, he is all for president trump. he understands what's going on. he's tried to help us. the previous president signed 28 connecticuts with the chinese -- contracts with the chinese. they didn't fulfill but 1 of those 28 in 5 years' time. so at the end of the day, or president trump's going to go in and help panama. we've got to take the panama canal back. we've got to do something because if we were to happen to go to war with china over taiwan and they were to shut the panama canal down, we'd have to go 8-10,000 miles longer if we had to go from the east coast to china. larry: wow, that's a great point, sir. that's a great point. let me just play some tape on these points from mr. trump today at his presser. take a listen, please, gentlemen. >> what took place at the panama canal. jimmy carter gave it to them for $1, and they were supposed

the panama canal was built for a military here to there was a robust response from panama or officials. last, so it any? yeah, the sovereignty, if i can, i is non negotiable, as it is part of the history of struggle and, and in the best of all the chief months in a way to see. trump also has canada in his sites, saying he would use economic force to try to bring a balance and onyx ation. canadian prime minister justin truth though, tweeted in response that isn't, says no goals. china seen how the candidate will become parts of the united states . i have to say, donald trump certainly isn't making any friends with his foreign policy agenda was a mess. and in 2 weeks time, the world will begin to find out how his words will translate into action as he returns to the white's house for his 2nd term. about approaching reality of trumps. the 2nd term is forcing american allies here in europe to reevaluate the relationship and how to keep it in good standing today. denmark's foreign minister tried to lower the heat by saying he was open to dialogue on arctic cooperation. yeah, i don't know if

panama canal. jimmy carter gave it to them for $1. they were supposed to treat us well. thought it was a terrible thing to do. it was the most expensive structure ever built in the history of our country, relatively. it would be the equivalent of over -- substantial over $1 trillion today. we lost 38,000 people. think of it. 38,000 people that died from malaria, mosquitoes. they were unable to stop the mosquitoes. paid people five times more to take the job, many of those people die. we gave it away for $1. the deal was they have to treat us fairly. they don't treat us fairly. they charge more for our ships than ships of other countries. they charge more for our navy than navies of other countries. they laugh at us because they think we're stupid. but we're not stupid anymore. so the panama canal is under discussion with them right new. they violated every aspect of the agreement and it's -- they morally violated it also. and they want our help pause it's leaking and not in good repair. and they wa

so if anything, the united states has a slight advantage at the panama canal.it is true, though, alex, that the chinese have influence throughout the americas. they have influence in telecoms and local media and politics and resource extraction. we do have to be concerned about the ccp operating in our backyard, but the way to counteract that is not to bully a small ally. the way to counteract that is to show up in these south american and central american capitals, bearing deals for trade and investment that are better than the deals that the ccp are coming with. >> jake, i always love talking with you. this time i really learned something, but i always do. just for the record, thank you so much. what michael cohen said this morning about donald want to get the most out of one sheet? said this morning about donald trump's sentence. that's grab bounty.

the panama canal is under discussion with them right now.y violated every aspect of the agreement and they morally violated it, also. china has basically taken it over. >> let's take a deeper look at what could be called trump's growing land grab. pippa stevens and megan cassella has more. former chief of staff to mike pence, marc short joins us. megan, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, frank. trump's complaints are on four areas of friction. trade deficit and what he calls a flood of i mmigration and fentanyl and what we pay for canada's defense. here's what he says. the latest data this week runs through the first 11 months of 2024. canada is the u.s.'s second largest trading partner. in that time, $700 billion of goods exchanged over those 11 months. we want to run a trade deficit in goods, but a surplus in services. in total, the deficit was $55 billion. economists now don't mind trade deficits and that one isn't that big. it's the ninth largest that the u.s. runs from the bilateral trade deficits. canada sends us a ton of energy.

and it was formerly handed over to panama. we shall receive back because i always uh, believe that uh the can. i was billed on my, on my store. oh, yeah. and, and therefore you always belong to panama. under panama, is administration to canal has remains vitals to global trades. and now trump is suggesting that us got a bad deal arguing without proof that us ships are being charged higher fees and that chinese soldiers are controlling it. are navient. com, or as have been treated in a very unfair and in your dishes way of the fees being charged by panama ridiculous, highly unfair to treat these, allow the us to intervene militarily, if the canals neutrality strengthens but don't give washington any right to take it back this treaty was signed and by to pressure this, it was rather 5 by the senate. and he was implemented by the house of representatives and it became a law. it was a law, so he has to for the law. i was a minister in the front of me, i can uh for, for uh, 7 years. and i never got any instructions for any strategi

y se le metió lo loco de que se viera hasta panamá, desde chihuahua hasta panamá. ve. cuando lo compré, perdón, pues estaba pues muy muy descuidado. lo agarré, lo empecé a arreglar mecánicamente, estéticamente se ve que no, jajajajajajajaja. y por qué en el zurito es como un ícono de méxico y como buenos mexicanos, desafiando todos los pronósticos, empezaron su travesía 13 7 países, incluido méxico, guatemala, el salvador, honduras, nicaragua, costa rica y panamá. de ahí pues dije ah, caray, pues no, no, o sea, pues es un sueño. y no dije no, ya lo planeé. cuando le comenté a mis amigos y a mi familia se rieron cuando les dije que en el zurito se burlaron. ah, sí? dije órale, pues van a ver que sí puedo. y así lo hizo. y todo quedó documentado por el mismo. conocí muchos lugares, muchas personas. hubo situaciones peligrosas. hubo momentos excepcionales, muy bellos, con personas de allá. los paisajes, la vegetación, el agua, los cerros, las carreteras. otra cultura. 5300 kilómetros fueron los recorridos hasta el canal de panamá, donde este viajero transitó sin mayor

um, and, and panama. but i want to just say there are more people who live in casper, wyoming, than greenland, which is our least populous state. and the fact of the matter is, china and russia are licking their chops about making a move against greenland because the arctic is so vital for future trade routes, minerals, military. uh, it is very much in our national interest to buy it from denmark because they do not have the resources to keep china and russia at bay in the arctic. >> you say buy it from denmark, but as you just heard there, trump did not rule out using military force. and you do have to wonder. you bring up, you know, russia, you bring up china, how they're viewing these comments and whether they view it as maybe a way to be emboldened when it comes to ukraine and taiwan. >> well, i'm not so sure about that. i know in the context of the arctic, which is going to be one of the major hot spots in the future, i do actually believe russia is bold enough to make a move at greenland, as the arc

china is at both ends of the panama canal. china is running the panama canal. and they come to see this biden, this guy who should never have been allowed even to run for president. of course she shouldn't have either, because that never happened. i had to beat two people, not one, but they want $3 billion to fix the panama canal that's run by china and makes a lot of money. china, one of the most profitable structures ever built because you have ships lined up back to florida, frankly, and they just keep going through. and the numbers are staggering. half 1 million to $1 million a ship. and they took it away from us, uh, meaning we gave it to them for a dollar. but, uh, not going to be not going to happen. what they've done to us, they've charged us, they've overcharged our ships, overcharged our navy. and then when they need repair money, they come to the united states to put it up. we get nothing. those days are over. working with the republican majorities in congress will cut taxes, slash regulations, raise wages, and boost incomes at a pace the world has n

we gave the panama canal to panama and not china, but they have abused that gift.ippling tariffs on goods from canada and mexico if they do not tighten border security, and he announced a unilateral plan to completely rename the gulf of mexico. we are going to be changing the name of the gulf of mexico to the gulf of america. it has a beautiful ring to it. it covers a lot of territory. the gulf of america, what a beautiful name. joined by his special envoy to the middle east, donald trump says there has already been a lot of progress on efforts to release about 100 hostages held by hamas in gaza and he wants them freed before his inauguration in less than two weeks' time. if those hostages are not back, i do not want to hurt your negotiation, but if they are not back by the time i get into office, all hell will break out in the middle east, and it will not be good for hamas and it will not be good frankly for anyone. all hell will break out. i don't have to say any more but that is it is. i solemnly swear... in under a fortnight history will repeat itself when dona

panama's president rejects that. the national security issue there, and how cannot be resolved? jim: there is a national security issue with the panama canal. we do need to use it, not just for commerce, but for naval ships go between the west and east coast. but by treaty we have given panama the right to that canal, they run that canal. if he has a particular problem, if trump feels there is a national security threat there, he deals with that by working with panamanians. we have a good relationship with panama and long-standing national security relationship with them. if there is a specific issue trump seems to have, we work it out in the modern world. states work out their problems. that is what we do, we do not take them over. this is not the 19th century. sumi: what trump would say in response perhaps is it was his more aggressive posture toward nato that caused other nato allies to spend more on defense. jim: it is putin's more aggressive policy that led to an increase in defense. i was in nato and the pentag
