advisor stephen miller. you for being here.king >> thank you for being here.ed? what is the reason the republicans underperformed?wo >> three very important considerations to understandla what happens.en republicans won the popular vote by five-6 million votes. about a four percentage point edge. the firss t question you ask is how is it possible on a national basis for millions more ballots to be cast for republicansha overall, but tveo lose the senae and to have a cliffhanger in the house.r or the number one reason for that is democrat mastery of mail in balloting, vote harvesting andin the machinery of the early vote in these states where they are voting for weeks if not months before the election. a very tight swing state whereoe it will be decided by a few percentage points, they can swing the outcome by collecting ballots, extremely low propensity a areas.lo with extremely low propensitys voters in bank those ballotsda long before election day ever s happens. there isuc nthino such thing as anymore.day

timeless shattering every vocal stephen oates said as best. well at the 53 years i returned to the of the crime because based upon the reckoning of many legislatures. now what we were doing here is being criminalized. and being this panel. i'm honored and humbled. the first i've been asked to participate in this tribute to my good friend and mentee stephen oates. but listening to these learned scholars here, you know, i keep thinking of how much the emergence of women it enriched the writing of history, their particular insights. i've learned so much from women historians in the 53 years since i first came here that i could go on, you know, just expound hours about. but since i'm laboring under the tyranny of the clock, i still have to pay attention to text. and just like, say that i am also wanted to see professor michael thelwell here. he's the one that recruited me 53 years ago. then he was young, firebrand, and right out of the civil rights movement. now he is a wise emeritus professor. and what i'm. you could make it out. and steven b awa

stephen mcdonnell, bbc news, beijing.essor of chinese politics and history at the university of oxford. thank you very much forjoining us. i think it would be useful to first of all get some perspective on the numbers we have seen on the streets there. yes, there are protests going on in various cities, but this is a huge country with a huge population. just how significant of a challenge is this to xi jinping?i just how significant of a challenge is this to xi jinping?— is this to xi jinping? i think it's significant. — is this to xi jinping? i think it's significant, nancy, _ is this to xi jinping? i think it's significant, nancy, although i is this to xi jinping? i think it's significant, nancy, although it| is this to xi jinping? i think it's i significant, nancy, although it is not yet the movement that looks likely to overturn the system. it is much more of a howl of rage, you might say. we are seeing in each of these places, shanghai, most recently the city of wuhan where most recently the first cases of covid were

in belgrade we have stephen guide. she is a research associate at the at belgrade institute for european studies and assemble . we cross the house on now. he is professor at the department of political science and international relations at mel tip university. welcome, gentlemen, cross high girls and a fact that means you can jump in any time you want. and i always appreciate alfred . let me go to you 1st here much. when said about the conflict in ukraine, but if you look at the on an international scale, i see a tipping point, a pivot as it were going on here. the recent g 20 meeting and bali is a very good indication when western media says that g 20 is united on ukraine, which is absolutely propaganda. it is not true whatsoever. and if you go into the thick description and look at countries wanted to talk about, they wanted to talk about food. they want to talk about energy. they want to talk about trade. they didn't want to talk about ukraine. but the, the, the countries that are in the g 7 that are in the g 20, th

stephen mcdonell, bbc news, beijing. more on that, i am joined now by benjamin cowling, professor and chair of epidemiology at hong kong university. thank you very much forjoining us on the programme. why exactly are these cases so high in china? the latest omicron _ these cases so high in china? tue: latest omicron sub these cases so high in china? tte: latest omicron sub variance on more transmissible than ever before, and i think that the measures that it are being used in china are struggling to stop transmission when it happens so quickly and with such intensity, with the a5 in the latest more recent than ba five. fine intensity, with the a5 in the latest more recent than ba five.- more recent than ba five. one of the reasons the — more recent than ba five. one of the reasons the chinese _ more recent than ba five. one of the reasons the chinese government - more recent than ba five. one of the| reasons the chinese government says that they are keeping with the zero covid policy is to protect those who are vulnerable

and this is what has happened as a result of stephen. let me go to you. i mean, joseph brown talked about the garden and the jungle. i could, to serbia, i've been to serbia, it's kind of a garden to me. what's going on with that guy? go ahead in belgrade. again, we're, we're going back to this colonial discourse and they're not even realizing that they're using the same or similar analogies. i've heard from us from robert's culprit in his book radio nations where he speaks about a modern, pretty modern and. busy postmodern states we're actually it is a. busy allowed for the political west basically to lie and utilize which really are reminded me of what, what is said about as being the empire of lies. and even when it comes to this, this a whole analogy between the data shall, sorry, darian regimes and, and democracy is on the other side. well, one of the 1st and founding states of ne thought was a fascist regime in portugal, a. busy salsa at the time. so what kind of language is that they are? are they never really followed the rules that they are imposi

my point is this. 1620 there was a stephen hopkins there. who was someone who was fighting to build a life? that had nothing to do with the question of slavery and had everything to do with a solid grasp on those middle-class principles and values and individualism. which ultimately characterized the society? and i would submit. far more characteristic of this society than anything you see described in the 1619 project. i think it's the project itself. the 1619 project is focused on privilege because of new york times came into being in the early 1850s after defender of privilege has never changed and that's all they know how to talk about. but the point is this. ask yourself. remember i said they're still descendants of hopkins here. ask yourself this question. why would the university become the kind of nation that could end slavery might have something to do with the kind of soul that stephen hopkins was? and the fact that they were very many of them. remember as we whip through the civil war. over 600, americans lost their lives on both

stephen miller is just the latest of the continuation. this is not new. >> white grievance politics and the idea that anything -- everything is discriminate night against white people and giving blacks special rights. this goes back to andrew johnson vetoing the civil rights act in 1865, 1866. this is jesse helms versus harvey gantt, the ad where the black hand takes away the white guy's paycheck. this is a distillation of white grievance politics we've seen. kudos to actually really distilling it that well. this is the kind of bs we see all the time, and it's just rank racism. >> so, again, in georgia, who does this help? in georgia? >> that's what i'm saying. >> we know exactly what it's about. this isn't arguing intelligently against affirmative action. >> okay. >> panel, thank you very much for that. laura, fascinating. and i'm sorry. that stephen miller ate up a minute of my time there. >> any time. but now dante sawworth and kirsten powers are back with me right now. we'll start the clock. obviously apparent that raisa huge part of

now they're interviewing people like stephen miller. he's close to the president or remains close to the president. it shows when merrick garland says the pace will not change, that this is likely true. you see even though jack smith has taken over and is in the process of being briefed up. overseeing this broad investigation, that the career prosecutors who have been working on this problem continue to do so at pace. it does not matter there's been a changing of the guards. they have not stopped their work. >> let me -- the news that steven mill der will be cnn is reporting stephen miller is before a grand jury and the select committee investigating the same things what they produced about trump's ties to stephen miller. here's some of stefanie murphy's reporting. >> as you can see from the president's daily diary here, the president spoke to his chief speech writer stephen miller for over 25 minutes that morning. following his call with mr. miller president trump inserted for the first time a line in his speech that said, quote, and w

sofia: i really like what stephen just said.all about psychology, not just when it comes to covid zero and trying to read the tea leaves, but also markets. this is a sentiment driven market. it is not a market that is trading on valuations and earnings and the economic picture. it is all about seeing when people start to get more positive even if nothing changes in china. for a few more months at least a lot of analysts saying march next year at the earliest will be when they are expecting covid zero to begin to start being pulled away. what the market really needs is a shift in psychology. maybe the news is not so bad. maybe we have reached the bottom. maybe the worst performing stock market in the world, which is the hang seng china enterprises index in hong kong -- maybe that is enough. maybe there is already a lot of negativity in the price. when we start to get that shift, the move up can be really fast. kathleen: bloomberg's chief north asia correspondent stephen engle and sofia horta e costa. coming up, why people shown t

stephen: this is stephen engle in bangkok at apec.now if you feel that the white house has room to relax or pull back on some of those trump era tariffs on the chinese given a warmer environment between xi and joe biden. is that a lever that is worth using? i know katherine tai, u.s. trade representative, probably wants to keep some leverage in negotiations with the chinese going forward. claire: yes, i think leverage with the chinese is always important if you want to make any progress. we have to remember two things. one, the fundamental politics going on in the u.s. as folks begin to focus on 2024 and positioning for the next presidential election, which i think will constrain biden in terms of doing anything that could be criticized. some in the right-wing are already considering criticizing biden for meeting with xi. i think that was an important leadership initiative on both sides to calm things down. we do not need miscalculations, a hot war. it does not make sense to have such a hostile environment. it is good for both sides t

haidi: stephen engle there.re watching these ongoing protests in china as policy pushback is growing. citizens defining and challenging covid zero. analyst say it may not be the last test of beijing's ability to adjust. let's bring in our bloomberg opinion columnist. this comes weeks after the robust consolidation of xi jinping's leadership and now we are seeing calls for him to step down. this is a networked set of protests where they criticism is directed at the leader himself. how does beijing handle this? >> i think a couple of things are important to bear in mind, especially when you think about protests and authoritarian systems. one is protests are not as rare and china's we often think they are from the outside but they tend to be isolated. students, workers, livelihood issues. what we have seen here is livelihood issues, which the government tends to tolerate and political questions are coming together thanks to covid and it's creating a situation where we have protests across china come across cities t

stephen mcdonell, bbc news, beijing. well, for more on that, we earlier spoke to benjamin cowling, professor and chair of epidemiology at hong kong university. i asked him why he thought the cases are so high in china. the latest omicron subvariants are more transmissible than ever before, and i think that the measures that are being used in china are struggling to stop transmission when it happens so quickly and with such intensity, with ba5 and the latest omicron subvariants more recent than ba5. one of the reasons the chinese government says that they are keeping with this zero covid policy is to protect those who are vulnerable and are older. there also seems to be quite a bit of resistance to vaccination. why is there this reluctance to get vaccinated? there's a number of different reasons why older people particularly are less keen to get vaccinated, but i think one of the major reasons would have to be the zero covid policy. if the government continuously reassures people that there won't be a large epidemic of co
