who could make or break cavanagh's nomination roselyn jordan joins us live now from capitol hill roslyn what's been the response to the vote so far. well it's been quite for so for us as you were just showing that video outside senator jeff lights office it was very rowdy it was very wild there were hundreds of people in the hallway just upstairs where we're standing and when i went up there the police were basically pushing the crowd in half and pushing one half back towards this side of the russell senate office building and pushing the other half towards the other side of the building trying to clear the way so that people who actually work in this building can try to get to their offices and more important to make certain that the demonstrators did get inside office so clearly there's a lot of concern but still a lot of interest the patient that they might be able to prevent brett kavanaugh from getting on the nation's highest court on the flip side the u.s. president donald trump quickly tweeted out congratulations to the senate for essentially ending debate on brett kavanaugh this

and it's no exaggeration to say the country's prosperity is based on that trade having said that as roslyn was saying there will be some giveaways by canada including access to the highly protected dairy market and those tariffs on steel alone and aluminum canadian officials are telling us that those will be dealt with they will disappear at some point but i think there's a great sigh of relief here that there's a deal at all and one that guarantees continued canadian access to the most important market it has and will have john homan in mexico city john i mean there are some big u.s. multinationals have production hubs in mexico so what does this mean for mexican workers because the labor bills in mexico historically a lot lower than in canada and a lot lower than in the united states. and i think mexico is really as rosalind said it pays its workers especially in the car industry significantly lower than the united states and in canada another thing here also is that unions a week to almost nonexistent especially in that car making sector which president trump was really targeting so i t

against the senate's vote or rosen joins us live now from capitol hill and speaking about key senators roslyn all eyes now on senator susan collins a great deal riding on what her position will be. that's right and that's because susan collins is one of four senators who are considered the swing votes on that the nomination of brett kavanaugh to join the u.s. supreme court as you just noted jeff flake of arizona a republican who is leaving the senate and who is also with very critical of the u.s. president donald trump has been considered perhaps the most important swing vote but he has said that unless something really unusual or outrageous comes up in the next twenty four hours he does plan to vote to confirm calvin ball to the high court another republican senator lisa murkowski of alaska announced earlier on friday that after considerable consideration and reading of the f.b.i. report that was put together in the middle of this confirmation process she has said that even though she considers cavanagh to be a quote a good man. she can't vote for him that there should be someone else domina

the other day about what an extraordinary woman porsche is or what an intelligent woman beatriz or roslyn are. i was looking at the quality of the speech, and i realized that i had never really dealt with a difference in judgment of mercy. porcia said, judgment would mean that we would all be damned. mercy must be involved. what is the difference between judgment and mercy? justice breyer: you think i will say it is better than shakespeare? [laughter] justice breyer: you are wrong. because i am not. you read the play and you will see. absolutely strict letter of the law? no. it will not work. you will produce an unfair result and that is not the ultimate object. the psalmist says justice, justice, shall you pursue. it is not say you will find it. the law is filled, filled with what i think of as a little bit of give in the gears. there are many things, why do we have juries, prosecutors to say you don't have to prosecute? it is filled with it. it is a rather imperfect human effort to take account of individual situations where a law is more likely to have to deal with a generality. michae

donald trump has talked about since he was a candidate back in two thousand and fifteen all right roslyn jordan live for us there in washington where we now have daniel daniel lak who joins us live now from toronto in canada so. daniel what does this mean what does this deal mean then for canada particularly that there was the danger of them being left out of the whole thing. that certainly added a lot of impetus to the negotiations let's not forget mexico and the us reached their version of this deal in august and the canadians were told to get cracking or they'd be left out in the cold and a couple of us said deadlines came and went the canadians were a little cocky thinking they could keep pushing it but this one of september thirtieth sunday september thirtieth seemed to be the one that actually got the deal done prime minister justin trudeau taking a hand in the negotiations over the weekend and president trump adding extra pressure at the u.n. general assembly and calling out canada for what he said were unfair trade practices canada signed a deal that's basically probably not as g

trumpet ministration who are ramping up the pressure to force an end to the war in yemen al jazeera roslyn jordan reports. since yemen cratered into civil war in two thousand and fourteen the damage and the carnage have been relentless. an estimated fifty six thousand civilians have died either because of widespread food shortages disease or airstrikes carried out by the saudi led coalition in support of president abdullah robbo monsoor hod now a call to end the war from u.s. defense secretary jim mattis whose forces provide intelligence and equipment support to the saudi coalition our goal all right now is to achieve a level of out of capability by those forces fighting against them that they are not killing innocent people. the longer term solution and by longer term i mean thirty days from now we want to see everybody around a peace table based on ashish fire based on a pull back from the border and then based on chief sheen dropping of bombs that will permit the special envoy martin griffin to very good he knows what he's doing to get them together inch weeden and this war that is the

the rashi colonization fighting in yemen they want assurances that civilians are being protected roslyn jordan has more from the u.s. state department in washington d.c. . well a letter that has been sent to the secretary of state mike pompei o is basically calling into question his decision last month in september to certify that the saudi government and the u.a.e. government are both using the adequate precautions in order to make certain that yemeni civilians are not being killed during the air war that's been conducted against the rebels this certification it was mandated by congress and so the deadline was coming up in september and so because of the concerns of the u.s. is national security and its financial relationships with these two countries when it comes to weapons sales the secretary of state reportedly made the decision to issue the certification well according to a number of news reports that was a controversial decision both within the trumpet ministration as well as on capitol hill and so what these congressional leaders who are very active on foreign policy have done i

history roslyn jordan reports now from washington d.c. thank you thousand and sixteen campaign promise delivered ahead of the midterm congressional elections in the united states donald trump says he's negotiated a new trade accord with mexico and now with canada it will be the most advanced trade deal in the world with ambitious provisions on the digital economy patents very important financial services and other areas where the united states has a strong competitive advantage mexico and canada have agreed to strong new labor protections environmental protections and new protections for intellectual property so important if approved the new u.s. mexico canada agreement would preserve a one point three trillion dollar trading zone u.s. dairy farmers will be able to sell more of their products in canada canada gets to keep a dispute mechanism to resolve fights with the u.s. over lumber exports and auto workers in mexico will be paid more to produce parts for the u.s. market that last point mattered to officials in ottawa we have reached an

a deal that wasn't significantly worse that's what they think that they've done let's go back to roslyn jordan in washington roles when it comes to those donald trump threats does this mean that the united states is not so far down the protectionist road as it had been claimed it was since donald trump became u.s. president. not necessarily peter and here's why the u.s. very famously walked away from the transpacific partnership which was a deal that had been negotiated by the obama administration in concert with more than a dozen countries in the asia pacific a realm this new deal if it is ratified by congress and by the legislatures in canada and in mexico essentially would be a nother version of that especially when you consider the billions of dollars worth of exports that come from china into north america every year so this is in a way both for seeing donald trump's efforts to try to. talk try to move as it were some of china's global economic power by shoring up its trade relationships with two countries that might be more inclined to now to buy u.s. made products rather than imp

states their spring in rosslyn jordan our correspondent who's been following this story for us so roslyn what's the result of this procedural vote. well basically. to debate on brett kavanaugh this nomination has been officially ended by a vote of fifty one to forty nine now and many people are going to be interpreted this as a sign of whether brett kavanaugh is confirmation will actually be verified when the vote is taken perhaps as early as saturday it's worth noting that there are a least five senators were considered swing votes one of those lisa murkowski a republican from alaska voted no voted to end debate on the kavanaugh nomination the other four did vote to end debate those include susan collins jeff flake who of course has been an instrumental critic of the trumpet ministration as well as the person who asked for the additional f.b.i. investigation into brett kavanaugh his background on those such will solve allegations as well as joe mansion who is a democratic senator in a swing state of west virginia joe crowley also of indiana has also voted to close to bait this is a sign

a tougher stance against the saudi government let's go live to our state department correspondent roslyn jordan in washington d.c. first of all how significant is this letter. barbara the release of this letter is simply a coincidence yes there is a call from both republicans and democrats in the congress to put more pressure on saudi arabia but this has to do with the saudi led war in yemen there's been a lot of concern in congress particularly in the senate about the state department certification last month that the saudi government and the government were taking all due precautions to prevent civilian casualties of course this comes in light of the august airstrike in which about forty schoolchildren very young children were killed in their school bus during a saudi led air strike against the rebels they were in a suburb of sanaa the capital of yemen but the saudis and the immoralities were arguing that there were the rebels in the area they later said that they had targeted this school bus by mistake now the secretary of state might pompei o reportedly went ahead with the certificat

and more now from roslyn jordan is in washington d.c. and it was interesting listening to she had brittani see there talking about i guess the impact of the potential fallout between saudi arabia and the u.s. when really the u.s. is concerned about iran and this latest round of sanctions just emphasize that the . that's right barbara in fact this is perhaps just the latest in a number of actions that the trumpet ministration has been taking to try to isolate iran internationally of course in early november the u.s. is expected to impose a second round of more destructive sanctions against the government in teheran because of what the u.s. says is not just iran's desire to build nuclear weapons but to also try to stop iran from exercising its political will in neighboring countries across the middle east as well as around the world and so this latest round of sanctions targeting the domestic paramilitary group known as the bus each as well as about twenty or so businesses that provide revenue for the besieged to do its work it's just part

from mexico city in toronto will bring in dialect but first let's go to washington and my colleague roslyn jordan ross what's the difference between nafta or what nafta was and what they've come up with well put basically you what you're seeing are more intellectual property agreements especially on things involving e-commerce here seeing an opening for the first time of canada's dairy market to the u.s. farmers that was something which nafta did not provide for and you're also going to see a rise in the pay that workers get automotive products which is something that could be not so much to the benefit of mexico where workers are tended to be paid considerably less than workers in the u.s. or in canada but one big thing that does not change in this late breaking deal between the u.s. and canada is the tariffs on canadian steel and aluminum imports those tariffs still remain trade officials here in the u.s. say that those are being dealt with in a different venue and that this new agreement which is supposed to replace nafta would not address those concerns daniel in.

roslyn schwartz. the philip milstein family. judy and josh weston, by contributions from your pbs station from viewers like you. thank you. >> welcome to the program, everyone. i'm christiane amanpour from new york. america has suffered hate filled violence, attack on african-americans at a kentucky supermarket. political with a pipe bomb mailings to cnn. and religious inside a pittsburgh synagogue that killed 11 worshippers. american jews are reeling from a resurgence of anti-semitism in this country the one they felt the most safe in where a mass murderer is saying he wants all jews to die seems like a relic from distant pass. it wasn't ancient history to rose, the much loved 97-year-old killed that morning. she was there when jews were exterminated during world war ii. as america tries to make sense of the violent, whatever the perceived thoughts of the mexican migrants coming across the border most attacks in the united states were in fact carried out by homegrown extremists and just plain haters. >>> a spiritual leader at n

all right roslyn jordan live for us there in washington let's go now to john homan who is in mexico city for us so john as we said at the top there the u.s. negotiated renegotiated nafta renegotiated this deal with mexico back in august so where does where does mexico now fit into this agreement has been reached between the u.s. and canada today. scurries going to be very relieved that canada has joined with the two of them in this deal and that's because really if you've got a bilateral sort of tug of war between the united states and mexico that's a bit of a david and goliath situation if you've got canada also involved with this that's a possible ally for mexico they can both act when it's in it when it's in their own interest to go over sometimes against the united states or mitch has been pushing hard for canada to be included and even in the agreement itself and things that kind of this push for that makes cohen the agreement in all this didn't get the kind of those monies to get all three of these countries so we're already seeing certain advantages for that for mexico now but mex

treaty all right for the moment roslyn july first there in washington now u.s. defense secretary jim mattis has also spoken the head of aid that nato meeting he has reaffirmed the u.s. commitment to the organization. actions speak louder this the u.s. has acted showing that our commitment to the tranche atlantic alliance remains ironclad our nato alliance is also active every nato ally is awake today to the reality of russia's malicious behavior or fabrice put the a is a chief strategy officer for rest newson global and form a policy director of planning for nato he joins us via skype from santander in spain thanks for being with us so first of all what do you make of the comments by kay bailey hutchinson. i think it means that the u.s. is going to pressure the iran the breach of by russia of the nuclear forces treaty is not new the u.s.'s come forward already years ago which the nato allies with some intelligence saying that the russia was in breach of that and one nine hundred eighty seven treaty but there was no food endorsement by dia lions and the allies as

investigation didn't find any evidence to support sexual misconduct allegations against him roslyn jordanhas more from washington the motion is agreed to. the u.s. senate is now taking what should be the final step needed to approve brett kavanaugh for the u.s. supreme court thirty hours of debate and a vote the process has been delayed for nearly three weeks due to allegations of sexual assault a special senate hearing to review the allegations and a one week delay for the so the f.b.i. could investigate. senator jeff flake a swing vote was pressured by sexual assault victims into calling for the delay and yet despite protests out of his office and a review of the f.b.i. support flake says he will vote yes on cap and on a new kind of oh yes motto. something big change see. what would but. but anyway i'm glad we had a better process kavanaugh was already a contentious choice because of his conservative views on abortion gun laws and presidential powers but in mid september it was revealed christian blazin ford had accused him of trying to rape her when they were teenagers i've never sexua

target iran's mellot bank as well as steel and tractor manufacturing companies the details now from roslyn jordan in washington d.c. talk us through this one reason. well this is a part of the trumpet ministrations maximum pressure campaign on iran we've heard this term used in relation to north korea but perhaps even more important than trying to make certain that north korea doesn't have nuclear weapons is trying to make certain that iran does not have nuclear weapons and also that the u.s. is able to curtail iran's involvement in other countries around the middle east and the world for that matter the sanctions come all basically are targeting a domestic security group or paramilitary group known as the bus seach and this organization is supported by more than twenty financial organizations has a lot of financial investment in various companies including as you say tractor manufacturing metals mining banking and basically what the u.s. is trying to do is impose sanctions on this organization and on the companies from which it gets its financial support in order to further isolate tehera

along with these school districts. , roslyn, and easton. we invite you to join the conversation by using the hashtag, #waelex. we have a large audience in the theater and they had agreed to watch and listen. cheers, no boos, and hold applause until the end they have debate, except for now as we meet the candidates, republican dino rossi and democrat kim schrier. welcome, both of you.

roslyn, very limited way you can asian investors pay we have seen them rally on expectations of a bolsonaroations are not terribly based in a lot of substance in terms of his record and details of the economic policy he has been talking about. reporter: good morning. what we have seen leading up to this election is financial markets think he will be good for business, and you have seen a decent rally in the equity market in brazil, a strengthening in the brazilian currency as well. it is clear people who put their money to work in financial markets, like bolsonaro as the new president and they are happy . in the short-term, the fact markets have gone up so far in advance of the vote, and it is no surprise he is likely to win, even if these percentages are slightly below what was thought , it is still good for financial markets, but there might be profit taking in the short-term. we have seen a run-up where people say, good, that is it, it is priced in. what more can we expect? we have to see what people he appoints, what policies are in place, but signs are for the medium term it is good fo
