steven: what should republicans do? david: they should take a page out of the election i first won way back in 1994 with newt gingrich with the contract of america, and develop an agenda and say we need republican majority to get this done. i would put in another wave of tax cuts. i would put worker requirements for welfare. a whole bunch of issues across the economic and social and other agendas that create that coalition and motivate people. yes, i want to go up and vote for you. one of the things the house suffers from is last year in the health care debate congress failed to repeal obamacare. and they vote for their , congressman based on that. well, it's a detail but an important one. the congressman did probably vote to repeal it. it was three votes in the senate we did not get. but most voters are saying a pox on all of you. you promised you would get the job done. they have recovered from that with the tax bill. but to really solidify the momentum they have to have a strong agenda going into the next election. s

steven: you mentioned the club's priority last year was the new tax law. when this race in pennsylvania began. really in january. that is what a lot of republicans were talking about. a lot of television advertising said the democratic candidate was going to take away your tax-cut. leaving the validity of the argument aside, one of the things we have seen is that the messaging has disappeared on the airwaves. instead, ads from the national congressional leadership fund talk about his record as a prosecutor, his resume, immigration. should we read that as a sign that maybe these tax cuts are not the political winner republicans are hoping they will be? david: i want to be careful on answering that. we have not looked at the polling. clearly very talented group of people politically. are said these new messages the ones more likely to help him win. theink what that means is tax cuts clearly have been good, voters will appreciate it. as again to the next election, what they want to hear is what are you going to do next year ago it would be a failed a strategi

steven spielberg, what did you make of it? i hadn't read the book. real life in the future is squalid and people spend a lot of their time in second life as avatars in this great big computer game called the oasis where they can get possessions and accrue things. but if they get killed in the game they will lose everything. easter eggs are hidden in the game, are hidden within it by its designer who is a benevolent figure who has now passed on. our hero, his avatar, in the game, is looking for the keys that will give him the domain of the game. however ben mendelsohn‘s slimy businessman in the real world is also trying to get those keys so you have the interplay between the avatar world, the unreal world, and the real world. and it works surprisingly well. here's a clip. wade owen watts born august 12th 2027. i know where you are, you were seen entering your trailer, three days ago and you haven't left since. what are you doing? with all going on in this world do you think anyone gives a damn about some explosion in some ghetto trash warren in columb

well, it is a steven spielberg film!eal world, unreal world — one of the things i liked about it is the interplay between the two worlds. the other thing is that the virtual world is packed with pop culture references from the ‘70s and ‘80s. early on, someone produces the spaceship from silent running. i was won over. then that is the delorean from the film back to the future. you think this could become just about spotting the references but it is a real popcorn sugar—rush thrill ride. you can tell spielberg loves the avatar world he has created. and you get emotionally engaged with the characters. it would be easy this to become just a technical exercise when you spot the references and look at the visuals, but you care about the story, the story makes sense — and believe me, if the story is set in a computer game and makes sense to me, it will make sense to anyone! i went in with trepidation and i watched everything with a huge smile, i laughed, i was excited, swept along by the action. i loved the constant pop cultur

steven mnuchin is not in the military. he has no military responsibilities. the air force frankly has better things to do than fly him around and the expense is extraordinary. private jets themselves are expensive, just ask fired health secretary tom price about the cost of private jets and how that looks when you charge them to the taxpayers but that is nothing compared to military flights. military flights are expensive like $25,000 an hour expensive. and apparently, the treasury secretary has been enjoying military flights as what he thought should be just a regular perk of his job, and you have been paying for it through the nose $1 million just the first nine months he was there. and that kind of spending scandal by a trump cabinet secretary is dog bites man regular news for this particular administration, i know, but reports like that are taking on new importance and no potential significance amid this wave of reporting and overt hinting by the president he's enjoying firing people right now and he's about to get rid of more senior officials including p

steven major is also with us.ow a dollar chart and let stephen do his inner -- steven do his inner david bloom. this shows the new dollar weakness. within the yield market you live in, do you care about david bloom's world, do you care about dollar dynamics? steven: i think that chart is aite telling, so it must be 16%, 17% moves since the beginning of last year and that is all against the dollar. it's not the same against the euro, for example. clearly, there has been a revaluation versus the dollar, but not such a move versus the euro. that definitely is a negotiating chip, isn't it? with currencies, there are two sides. you mentioned the yield side in the u.s. as we were discussing earlier, u.s. t-bill yields are a key factor in play here. meanwhile, you've got very big short positions in the dollar currency. we cannot rule out the possibility that you have a dollar rally. whether it is a turn in trend or a short-lived rally is something else. i know that david and the team are thinking we are getting nearer to

you are right, and that is lawrence tribe's position at harvard is to say justice stevens don't do ituse all you are doing is playing into the hands of the nra because this is what they have been telling people we wanted for years and we don't. it is unnecessary and impractic impractical. remember, if you have not yet been for my website, go there immediately and cast a ballot in the poll question of daof the d because i'm about to give you the result. roseanne's rating success, which is it more attributable to, the show's politics or the show's quality. jirksz washed out, sometimes. washed up? never. l'oreal age perfect rosy tone moisturizer. increases cell renewal. boosts skin's rosy tone - instantly. and now, new rosy tone mask. from l'oreal paris. we've still got it. and we're still worth it. at the marine mammal center, the environment is everything. we want to do our very best for each and every animal, and we want to operate a sustainable facility. and pg&e has been a partner helping us to achieve that. we've helped the marine mammal center go solar, install electric vehicle ch

steven. : i think it would.though they have an inflation target, i think they would see the price insulation coming from a trade war as kind of a one-off, whereas a pc the economy slowing down and jobs getting lost, i think they would really be worried that this could become something much worse. so i think that if we ever saw the first round of inflation become a second round, they hawkish.come uber- they might recover from the first round missing the jobs lost, i think would scare them. julia: we are talking about a and thefiscal stimulus, disagreement over three and for rate hikes is still incredibly loose as far as policy is concerned. so why the curve flattening? ven: i have a ballpark view on this, and i think it is that the market is worried that the the democrats if do really well it will be a stepping stone to 2020. and there is no democrat out there that they think is going to be market positive, certainly not nearly as market positive as trump and the republicans were. you can talk about the recovery

but bingham was certainly, some people say he was a moderate as compared to thaddeus stevens. in some ways this was true. people who called for abolishing in court are not what we would call moderates. it is a relative term, or it is just showing that people have different perspectives on how to solve the problems that came after the civil war. mr. rosen: he is not a fan of the supreme court. you described his fierce criticisms of the dred scott decision and attempt to strip some of the decisions challenging lincoln. would he have thought congress or the supreme court should have taken the lead? mr. magliocca: he believed congress should take the lead. now of course he was a , congressman, so one should understand that. but his initial proposal for the 14th amendment that we now have simply said congress shall have the power to enforce fundamental rights and equality. it didn't really say anything about the course. then of course it was modified because people thought it would give congress too much power, or it did not give the courts a role, and he modified it to the languag

on that same subject in that same theme, the treasury secretary, steven -- it is not steve, it is stevenmnuchin. working on it. sorry, i've gotten it wrong 4,000 times on the air. steven mnuchin, treasury secretary, is reportedly also on the block today after documents obtained through a freedom of information act request shows he charged taxpayers for roughly $1 million worth of flights on military aircraft just in the nine months he was in office. steven mnuchin is not in the military. the air force has better things to do than fly him around. the expense is extraordinary. private jets themselves are very expense oi expensive. just add fired secretary tom price. military flights are really, really expensive, like $25,000 an hour expensive. and apparently the treasury secretary has been enjoying military flights as what he thought should be just a regular perk of his job. and you have been paying for it through the nose, a million dollars just the first nine months he was there. that kind of spending scandal by a trump cabinet secretary is dog bites man regular news, i know. but reports

his opponent was always stevens thaddeus stevens, who argued for much more, taking property away from slaveowners and giving it to former slaves, disenfranchising the confederacy. they had a debate which lasted for a year as to who would prevail. bingham ultimately won that debate, although he made a few concessions to stephens positions. they had a debate whichhis views politically impossible, and you would never get the south to do for the free slaves what we if you tookto do such a heavy-handed approach. that was a controversial argument, and one which did not quite play out quite the way bingham had hoped. against that, you have andrew johnson, lincoln's successor, who is against the 14th amendment entirely, and did everything he could to block its ratification. that led to the impeachment by congress. mr. magliocca: tell us about that impeachment. why did congress pass it, and how was that related to the 14th amendment? mr. magliocca: the difficulty was the south was occupied by the union army, and congress wanted the south to do different to ratified the 14th amendment, to have

democrats would like to see this happen and despite the words yesterday of former supreme court justice stevens, no way. we need more republicans in 2018

i don't think that the left is moving to the position of stevens.hink that's actually an outlier which is helpful to that coalition of students because they have a more mainstream position. >> that gets to a broader question, john, in terms of motivating the republican base to turn out this fall if you're a republican. if you're trump. is the way to do that by pointing to something positive, the tax cuts or the economy? or does it require remember who the democrats are. you don't want them getting near power. >> it totally requires that. the john paul jeempbs op-ed was a gift to the trump and republicans though probably too early. the key to understanding whattal happen in november is not just the democrats are charged up which they are but whether republicans are going to say i'm not going to bother going to the polls and democrats will ride away. if republicans can get heated up and if the argument is going to be they got to turn out to the polls because the democrats are moving on guns, they're moving on there, on that, they are on the chashlg an

some were somewhat taken aback by what stevens had to say. >> my belief is deep inside of me. my belief, my conviction. >> reporter: scott jackson says he's been the target of multiple death threats in recent months by those who think he should shut down his gun retail sales business. >> there's a very large population in the united states and one rule for all may not necessarily be the right thing, especially when it comes to taking firearms away. >> reporter: both sides of the argument seeking to be understood. on the peninsula, abc7 news. >>> wells fargo is the top financier for the gun industry and is now talking with its clients. tim sloan is providing clients with feedback, it's hearing from employees, invests and others. sloan says some team members are concerned about who can buy semi-automatic weapons, but he pushed back on the idea of cutting ties to gun makers or preventing customers from buying guns. >>> santa clara county sheriff laura smith is saying that i.c.e. agents entered her jail and interviewed two immigrants. smith tells the chronicle it happened on march
