racine attacks on national parks like never before. if we allow this within our parks we are seeing threats from every single area. something that impacts clean water in the clean water act, it is impacting the national resources and to protect the wildlife and resources that we care so much about. >> we saw state officials glad for it because they said states can management better than the federal government. >> let's remember, the national parks belong to all of us, and whether federal or national parks public lands in utah or virginia or anywhere, is so important to have the highest level protections. this one thing the national park service does. they have the most revered staff in the government. they can also impact and have a uniform system. >> this is jimmy in florida. >> of morning. >> thank you for taking my call. i have been cross country four times over the years. i've been to yosemite and oregon. the parks are something that i agree, we need as a nation. in my opinion i believe the reason there cutting the budget and the r

bruce johnson talked about that today with karl racine. he is d.c.'s attorney general and a haitian american. >> i was there. i was in port-au-prince. we covered it. that just adds to this, the pain, the hurt. it has to, right? >> it totally does and you know from being there in haiti what haitians would say americans is thank you. thank you for being such great neighbors to help us out in the time we need it. haitians are always reciprocal. they love americans. what we got from this president is no sense of history, no sense of facts. instead we've got a president who appears to be watching tarzan during the day. >> the last u.n. report on haiti was issued in 2017. it said 2.5 million haitians still, still need humanitarian aid. 55,000 people living there are still living in camps. >>> it's easy to take for granted how often do you think about what it takes to keep that elevator you ride every day running smoothly? sorry for the buzz kill, but behind the scenes there are some serious questions being raised about elevator safety. those questions are b

made the point that this president has received more coverage and and so much of the coverage that racine is generated by him. its coverage of things that he wants to get attention to in this president has a unusual ability to sort of sense when that conversation is moving away from him and to grab it back he does as we all know through twitter he does it through very provocative comments and i think journalists have been too willing to swear go down those paths which fit let's face it are quite repetitive i mean the president will say c.n.n. is great news and he'll say it ten times or he'll say it twenty times you know thirty times my argument has been why why is news the thirty first time that he says that i think so i just think that there's been a failure of i mean i say in a piece one of the things i think he's done is he's become our own assignment and we're letting him tell us where we should be spending our time and i think that's exactly the offices should be i know that you wrote i think it was last year you wrote an article about the media about obsessing over trump's tweets bu
