most of stalin's victims were never rebounded. the new gulag museum doesn't do much to change that. it's interactive exhibits do deal with more recent soviet history and highlight the communist party responsibility. the role of joseph stalin as a perpetrator is not clearly addressed and neither is that of the repressive soviet regime that up to the 1960's sent many of its citizens to labor camps. >> focusing on the stalin period, the museum doesn't include the persecution of dissidents after stalin's death, the tragic inherent of the soviet dictator. they have been trying to downplay stalin's crimes focusing more on the role in the soviet world war ii victory over nazi germany. >> perhaps it's unrealistic to expect anything different with new russian patriottism. once again, anyone questioning the status quo risks being punished. >> javier is with us now with the latest business news including news, javier, that apple has been on a shopping spree in china? >> an interesting strategic move in china. apple is taking its money on the road. it's invested $1 billion in chinese app didi a

roosevelt is convinced he can talk to stalin, that he can get stalin to be reasonable. tricks him repeatedly over the fate of poland, which was the major issue. this map is rapidly transformed into a map in which soviet forces are in control in eastern europe, and again, that -- and against that background it is not really surprising, the communist governments are in put in power. eisenhower has become the army chief of staff. as army chief of staff he has to respond to the situation. he is in a very difficult position. the american public want to have the troops back home. the troops have signed up for the duration, volunteered for the duration, and there is an enormous demobilization of the american military immediately after the war. the number of divisions falls rapidly, the number of warships falls rapidly and this is , encourage by new military technology because the new technology, the atom bomb was dropped in japan in 1945, appeared to prove america could actually ensure its interest in a very inexpensive way, and i suppose one of the keys to american policymaki

and as a result, stalin who thought he knew about it, got interested, went to see it. and from that point, his life changed and he was always some what in danger until stalin died. after that he was safer. >> rose: after stalin heard the music he allowed him to travel. >> within the soviet union. but the thing was, that he was the poster boy of soviet music. his first symphony came out when he was 19. and it was again it was premiered all around the world. and so they knew they had talent there. but you know, talent couldn't just be let to go it's own way, it had to be directed. so-- if properly dected, could write real soviet music. though they certainly didn't think that he should write operas. because that is sort of snobby stuff. they thought he should write film music. and he did write a lot of film music. >> rose: did things change when crush ef came to power. >> yeah, thins changed. you weren't likely to get killed and people started coming back from the labor camps. that is certainly true. to use the phrase, power became vegetarian. which is a wonderful word, r

company --jor country willing to sell anything was joseph stalin's soviet union. people do not realize that he was asking for some things in return, mainly top positions for spanish and soviet communists in the spanish army and security apparatus. it was clearly the only major country does providing help to spain. indeed, general franco and his nationalists would have won the civil war much sooner if stalin had not done this. the war would have been over in a matter of weeks or months after he overran madrid. this was something that drew people to communism and made people appreciate what stalin appeared to be doing for spain. but, there was something else going on. which got almost ignored by the press at this time. it is one of the things that complicated,rse or but also deeply fascinating. here's what it was. george orwell referred to it when he talked about the spirit of barcelona. catalonia and spain's northeast and other pockets of the country as well, frank is nationalists defeated in their initial attempt to take over, not by normal army soldiers. most arm

"the new york times" goes in whole hog. they are whole hog for hillary. they have no sense of fairness. they have individual reporters who are brilliant but the underlying culture is one of extraordinary left wing cynicism. >> and as evidenced by the numerous lawsuits on race and gender and age which are really important. i want to ask you about this effort that is now emerging that we know about. and that is by former governor romney. former presidential candidate bill kristol. ben sasse of nebraska even though he was repudiated by his own state party over the weekend, pretty, you know, i think it was 400-8. my question is, if they really push this for a third party candidacy, doesn't that pretty much pave the way for hillary to get the nomination because of them? and the pr
