since then, they have successfully campaigned to recall three progressive school board members, a progressive district attorney. earlier this year, they ran reforms at the ballot box. now, it appears they will get one of their moderate choices for mayor and still more moderates on the board of supervisors. >> yeah, it's about the basics, where our government should deliver for the citizens here. >> and what i'm seeing in this election is that they were looking for complete control. they didn't get it. they are still holding their own in some areas. let's keep in mind, we have not had a progressive mayor in san francisco since 1987 when they won. >> reporter: tim redman, long-time writer says progressives will lose more ground on the board in this election with two more races still up in the air. but he says all of that should be put into some context. but it looks like the supervisor may win in district one, and dan preston may win in district five and prop d is going down. jackie fielder, who is a very progressive candidate may win in district nine. at a time when national politics looks rea

-progressives have enorus cultural power. progressives dominate in academia, in journalism, in the professions. we've got a problem across the board, and the progressives can't point fingers at the conservatives, and the conservatives can't point fingers at the progressives. when it comes to this, everybody's got to stop and start showing some respect, respect for each other as human beings, and respect for each other's rights to disagree. -okay, so i think, i mean, as regular viewers take heart and inspiration from the model that you demonstrate, how do they also apply it to their own live to their own families and thanksgiving dinner tables, right, where, you know, they have a deep love and shared history, but often fundamentally disagree, and that can get in the way of the love that you all have discussed that ultimately needs to triumph in order for us to be able to really move forward in this experiment of representative democracy. -let me tell you, margaret, what i think the first and most necessary thing is, and it beg

we also need to make progress on the farm bill. because if we don't, we go over the dairy cliff and so many dairy farmers and all their suppliers and workers would be badly hurt. that again, is up to our republican colleagues to decide if they want to work with us to get it done. we're ready to get to work. finally, big priority for me has been, still is, and will be judges. the senate will continue fulfilling our constitutional obligation to consider and confirm highly qualified judicial nominees. and nominees to other agencies. today the senate will vote on the nomination of the u.s. district court judge for illinois. cloture on two more district court judges we will vote on in the coming days. we'll work hard to get as many confirmed as possible. bottom line, we've got a lot of work ahead of us, and as a senate, as a party, democrats are ready to get to work right away. senator murray. >> nikki, mr. leader. i will cut right to the chase. the majorities are going to change hands but one thing that remains the same here in the sen

as tony pointed out, they have made some progress recently. we want to see them not do much more and we will continue to emphasize that as we engage in the future. and again we are hopeful that we can, we see things, we will see things transition in lebanon and the not-too-distant future. i think there's an opportunity for that to happen, but you know, it's left to be seen when that will happen but we'll continue to press to make sure that happens sooner versus later.

we've made some progress in that regard. we extracted further commitments from the israeli side the past couple days and want to see those commitments followed through on. we believe we will continue to work on all the issues whether it's humanitarian assistance or ensuring the defense of israel against iranian attacks or working on cease-fire efforts and a hostage deal in gassa or bringing a diplomatic situation to lebanon that we'll work on and we'll continue to do that every day with what we have remaining in office. reporter: what happened in the meeting earlier, we'll ask karine about that but eight years ago president obama explicitly warned incoming president trump about the security threat of north korea and said it was the most important threat the u.s. was engaging with at the time. what is the most urgent national security threat facing the united states today as donald trump prepares to take office? jake: i would say two things in answer to that question. the first is it you look out at a strategic level, the com

it is starting to settle down, and they are making progress to the 2% target, and that is yesterday's news. tomorrow's news is what happens to payrolls. and look, ultimately, we have had some storms, and we have a lot of noise within the data, and this is stuff they have to sift through. their biggest concern is if there is a slowdown in the economy, and if the unemployment rates are to rise quickly, then they will have wished that they have continued on with the pace to cut interest rates, and that is what they will do. 25 today, and 25 in december and on a mission of 4%, and then eva evaluate. >> and they admitted to greater confidence of moving sustainably to the 2% target, and david, what does that mean? >> it is not meaning that much, and think try to use as small words as possible, and if they can get rid of a sentence, they will do so, and they are using that language to justify a good move. but i am feeling good about the payrolls and after the election, you are not seeing the commercials to make people feel better, but a bounce of the small business confidence and all uncerta

now what were understanding is that some progress has been made. the main sticking point has been in the enforcement mechanism of un resolution. 1701, which was adopted following the last major war between is robin has fell out in 2006 the last time hawks and was here. he made it clear to lebanese officials that their commitment to implement this resolution is no longer enough. commitments are not enough that they want to action and they want a new mechanism to be put in place. what we understand is that they're trying to set up or establish a committee and the united states a will have a role in this committee that will oversee the implementation of this the now, is this the only sticking point? no, this really is have been saying that they want a freedom of action to act against any threats that they perceive coming from has beloved. even if a cease fire deal is in place, this is something loving on is not accepting. now. has the officials over the past 24 hours, we've been hearing them make statements, they are throwing their support behind the

what are the progressives saying?porter: house progressives say they are not a problem with the democratic party, they do not think the progressive left is to blame for alienating voters. they say the problem is with establishment democrats tied to big money. they think they are the ones holding the party back. >> it's what they do every time but let's look at what their votes were in critical economic issues, how many take corporate pac money and then tell me how you think it was progressives that are to blame. stuart: progressives welcomed new members to the caucus on capitol hill, they are plotting their next move, some progressives want to turn this lame-duck session into a last-ditch effort to thwart donald trump's agenda by getting as many immigrants who are waiting for their legal paperwork and spend as much climate money congress allocated as fast as possible. >> there are a lot of people who could be us citizens. we should make sure people have the paperwork they need so they don't have their civil liberties

>> we continue to make progress towards reaching a resolution. as you know, almost had additional meetings with the speaker of the lebanese parliament before leaving beirut for israel. he's now going to israel to discuss the outlines of a potential deal. we continue to believe a deal is possible. we continue to believe a deal is in the interest of all relevant parties and we will continue to to push to close one. >> where do you stand in sustaining to secure the border? >> so we've had important conversations with our lebanese counterparts and that's one of the things that we've been discussing with them during this trip and it's one of the things that we have been discussing separate from the trip with other partners in the region and with other partners in europe about how people can provide financial contributions and whether their countries that can prid training and whether they can provide operational support to the degree that they can perform an important role that they would have to play in ensuring u.n. security council resolution 1701

speaking to the progress that i just heard about tonight in terms of making progress with students also turning our school into one that is extremely data focused and it's really comfortable with it, doesn't shy away from it. and we started that work last year. i was lucky to come to the school with some background knowledge of star renaissance and how to navigate that data, and so i was able to support our staff on how to navigate that data and more importantly, what does it mean and what do you do with that data. so it informs instruction, not just when windows open three times a year, but on a weekly basis, so that we can make the pivot that we need to meet the needs of our students in the moment. and the biggest one being an immersion school, just to add something else to that, do it in two languages, not just one. that's where i'm at right now. so i'll speak to the question that was posed. are we learning through the implementation and what might i think, commissioner lisa, you posed that and so one thing this year is this is my first year as instructional coach, which my 19th year

it was a testament to the progress made by black americans after the civil war but it was all erased21. the lynch mob motivated by a lie were in -- burned his assist to the ground and virtually leveled 35 square blocks. most historians believe the full extent of what happened is still unknown but as many as 300 people are believed to have been killed. it also left a void in generational wealth that reverberates today. and while it can never be made right, we are reminded that things can get better because this week the city of tulsa elected its first ever black mayor, state representative monroe nichols and tuesday night he delivered his victory speech while standing inside the very building erected to honor the legacy of greenwood. >> a victory alone does not guarantee our challenges are behind us but it does provide us with the greatest gift we could ever ask for, the opportunity to move beyond them. the opportunity not to be defined by our past but together to build a brighter future. >> to build a brighter future. i think a lot of people need to hear that right now. that moment i
