he tells tom that the wolfe's never gave any of the children any opportunities in life, and he tells at your parents will tell you that they have no money, but ben reassures tom and said look, they have plenty. he said if they're willing to give you an education, don't worry, that the rest of us never got a chance. he said tom, get as much out of these thrifty people as you possibly can. teacher education and get away from this house as quickly as possible. in october of 1918, we see that thomas wolfe has succeeded in getting away from this house and this tumultuous family. he's at college, thriving at chapel hill, writing for the student magazine, join fraternities and he gets a telegram to come home. ben has pneumonia. he has no idea that is about to come back to this room and watch ben die. ben had contracted the spanish influenza, a flu pandemic that swept the world and killed millions of people and a virus that doesn't just take the young of the elderly. it takes guys like ben, he's 25. thomas wolfe wrote that he didn't understand, ben was a sort of guy who deserved the best in l

tom wolf wrote an essay and he said even then two decades ago, he said it's something along the linesst ironies of our time is that we have the most materially successful generation, the history of man kind and they're also the most medicated. this is -- this has been a long time coming, haven't it? >> it has. the premier of china in the early 1970s was allegedly asked what he thought about the french revolution and he said, too soon to tell. you know, a lot of these trends take a long time. we've had populous moments before where people who felt alienated and lost because of capitalism or industrialism went looking for easy answers in the crowd and the mob. it happened with the know nothings in america. these moments come and go because they're the downside of freedom and the enlightenment and capitalism and what is required is for people like you and me and everybody at this table to do the hard work of defending what we have, of defending the norms, defending the system and saying hey, look, this is the only thing that has made things better in a global sense in all of human histor

this is a letter to me from governor tom wolf. as the ranking member said on the nutrition committee, he said we should talk to the people on the front lines. the government also said to me that the farm bill has been a baip event because hunger is not a political issue. that's what the governor of pennsylvania said. and he'll on the front line. so, mr. chairman, i read the comments from him and it's just i would like to submit that for the record, if that's possible, i understand this is a mark and i recognize and respect that. i think it's important to talk to the people on the front line. that is to say that s.n.a.p. has effective work requirements. many of these requirements work in low-paying seasonal unstable jobs. let's take a look at the facts. two-thirds of s.n.a.p. recipients are children, elderly, or disabled. we should be investing in options rather than mandating new programs in washington that are untested and lack evidence. mandatory work has not proven to be successful. usda has just contracted for a study to learn

let's bring in tom, and chris wolfe, chief investment officer with first republic private management, steve liesman here as well. chris, we're getting weaker and weaker by the moment why? >> a combination of things the first is it's friday still winter vacations going on. not sure people after all the news want to be long going into the weekend. number two, looks like we're going to get higher rates, maybe even a bit higher not only this year but next year as well that brings in the cost of alternatives >> you got that from jay powell. >> just now. and the last piece is the trade issue. it's likely if nothing stops to get a bit more asymmetric. >> what do you mean? what does that mean? >> you made a point earlier on the show that we're going to run out of things or chienga will run otoff things to create tariffs on only $130 billion of tariffs on. >> tom, are you -- you think that's the correct assessment of why we are selling off again here on a friday >> yeah, look. i think we'll get it, right? and as we have been saying, we think this idea of trade will punctuate the backdrop for t

what is uncle tom, but for white women who disappoint other white women? >> that, of course, is where michelle wolf went over the line. many members of the media agree that wolf went too far. the president declined to attend for the second year in a row. he said the comedian bombed. the washington post media agrees. in the article "for the sake of journalism" stop the dinner. trusts -- trust in the ma mainstream media is low. president trump constantly pounds the news media as a bunch of out of touch elites. the optics of the dinner seem to back him up. that is spot-on given the dynamic of what happened saturday night. taking shots at press secretary sanders. that did not look good. >> he doesn't want to get made fun of. that is why he is not there. he likes praise. >> she went after the media. saying we're all a bunch of hip cra hipocr -- hypocrites. she was making fun of the room. >> let us know what you think on twitter @earlystart. >>> let's get a check of money. global stocks are higher. troub t-mobile plans to buy sprint. economic growth slowed in the first quarter. wages jumped at the fastes

what is uncle tom but for white women who disappoint other white women? >> greg: wolf reminds us you can smear women as long as you on the right. the media calls it a roast. if if you did it come it would e called misogyny. progressives play by different rules. take joy reid. whatever she writes will be excused. being on the left excuses everything. you can drive girls into the drink or run the clan and still sit in the senate as long as you're a democrat. the comments defenders will say ciampa said bad things about women too. you are right. he said bad things about everyone. but if he wasn't president and marco rubio was, do you think michelle would be any nicer to rubio? he is pro-life. she is this. >> mike pence is antichoice. he thinks abortion is murder. but don't knock it until we've tried it. >> greg: maybe that's what brian seltzer considers brave material. yeah, ciampa said bad things but he crushed isis and -- i will take the tray off even if i have to listen to bad jokes. kimberly, i go to you. i believe you feel strongly. >> you are monitoring me all weeken

tom but for white women who disappoint other white women? it was uncomfortable and that was the intention. michelle wolf'sly made it less likely that the president will struggle to decide whether to attend next year. chris buckler, bbc news, washington. stay with us on bbc world news, still to come... we meet a thirteen year old boy who's just become one of the world's youngest professional gamers. this is bbc world news today. i'm tanya beckett. the latest headlines: the new us secretary of state, mike pompeo has expressed "deep concern" at what he called iran's ambition to dominate the middle east. south korea says kimjong—un has promised to invite the world to witness north korea closing its nuclear test site next month. australia is promising to spend 400 million us dollars to help restore and protect the great barrier reef. the world's largest reef system has been damaged by warming sea temperatures and pollution. phil mercer reports from sydney. the great barrier reef is australia's greatest natural treasure. but this world heritage listed wonderland is under siege. for two years running it was hit

heard that from lindsey graham and tom till lis. >> you think the president gets the message from the senate judiciary committee? >> he should have it candidly, wolf heard everyone. these are not the typical jeff flake says donald trump better watch out. he is a critic of donald trump for some of the -- some i think genuine reasons, some political reasons. these are people sort of down the line. orrin hatch said donald trump could be one of the greatest presidents ever. this is not a huge critic and yet you have him warning about it. so yes. i think it's important to note -- i think it is important that essentially saw four republicans purposely vote for something they know -- knew would bother the president knowing that it's probably not going anywhere. sort of a vote into the ether because it doesn't go. why take the vote? send the message. does donald trump hear it? how much does he hear anything even if he hears it and impact him? i would generally err on the side of it doesn't impact how he makes his mind up. >> we have more to discuss and the president's trip to moscow in 2013. he spoke out about it earlier today. we'll update you on the ver

sanders is it cousin or auntie huckabee sanders, what's uncle tom but for white women who disappoint other white women? >> that's comedian michelle wolf laying into press secretary -- some people were really offended by this so much so that last night the president of the correspondents association said she regrets the speech. usually journalists and politicians actually come together to laugh at them self-s and raise money for college scholarships. this weekend it was hardly the first to ruffle feathers, stephen colbert gave the most famous speech in 2006, mocked george w. bush sitting right there. >> now i know there's polls out there saying that this man has a 32% approval rating but guys like us, we don't pay attention to the polls. we know that polls are just a collection of statistics that reflect what people are thinking in reality. and reality has a well known liberal bias. >> well, president trump actually skipped the dinner again this year and instead had a rally in michigan and called that dinner an embarrassment. >>> new this morning, a michigan family talking about their terrifying experience even they admit easily could

wolfe writes about benjamin dance. ben is better with his family and he tells tom that the walls never gave any of their children any opportunities in life and he tells tom that their parents will tell you they have no money, but then here he assures tom and he says look, they have plenty and he said if they're willing to give you an education, don't worry that the rest of us never got a chance. he said tom, get as much out of these people as you can. get your education and get away from this house as quickly as possible . and in october 1918, we see that thomas wolfe has succeeded in getting away from this house and do stumbled to his family. he's at college, he's driving at chapel hill writing for the student magazine, joining fraternities and he gets a telegram to come home. ben has no money now. and he has no idea he's about to come back to this room and watch then died. and then had been attracted spanish influenza, a flu pandemic that swept the world and killed millions of people in a virus that doesn't just take the young and elderly, it takes guys like ben. he's 25 and thomas wolfe wrote he didn't understand. ben was the

tom but for white woman who disappoint other white women? trish: wow. well i'm really glad i didn't go. comedienne michelle wolf ridiculing sarah huckabee sanders at the annual white house correspondents' dinner. it wasn't funny. it really wasn't. nothing about her presentation was funny. i kept saying who is this michelle wolf who is doing this? and i did a little research. i checked around. i checked around with the young ones too. no one knew who she was. she has a show online and does a few things on "the daily show." she is not really what you would call an established comic and i think that came out in full force because you know there is a, there's a line between comedy and just being plain old mean, and she crossed that line and she was really mean. and there was nothing funny about that. you could hear the lack of response in that room. you can see how people were uncomfortable with her so-called jokes. so i wondered why do they have this woman there or a woman that, you know, i think many people hadn't even heard of, especially when you think about some of the people they have had in the past to headl

like what's uncle tom but for white women who disappoint other white women? oh, i know, ann coulter. >> a lot of the criticism, wolf, has been about personal attacks against sanders. people saying she was criticizing sanders' personal appearance. wolf responded overnight on twitter saying i was trying to talk about her behavior. her behavior as white house press secretary. but keeping in mind that, you know, i saw you walked over to sanders right after the roast. can you tell us about that conversation? >> i told her that i knew that this was a big decision, whether or not to attend the dinner and whether to sit at the head table and that i really appreciated her being there. i thought it sent an important message about the role of government and the press being able to communicate with one another and work together and that i appreciated her being there. >> is there less of a chance she'll attend next year because of this? >> i don't know and i hope not. again, michelle wolf is a comedian, she speaks for herself and that is her right to do that under the free speech and first amendment, which we're celebrating. >>

wolf. >> sarah huckabee sanders burns fat from her ass then uses that ash to create smoky eyes. i never know what to call her. what is the name for uncle tomhite women who disappoints other white women. charles: kayleigh, i think you have been to some of these. this was out-and-out disgusting. >> i have been to some of them and it's usually mean spirited it was against president trump last year. but this year it was startling, some of those jokes. they were cruel, they were over the line. the fact there was any laughter or clapping in the room. that's not how a woman should treat another woman. even some liberal women stood up and said this is uncalled for. charles: some liberal women have. some have not. rob reiner put out a tweet saying how much he admired the spectacle. >> this is a complete burn it was sad to see. kayleigh is right. some women have stepped ford. but it seems to most of people on the left, that only liberal women can be victims. it's sad to see this happening, but she is not the only woman who has gone through this and have never been stuck up for by the left. they always put us down. charles: pounding away, sarah and m

tom: with the heightened environment surrounding president trump means someone has to tell him what to do, i get that, or he's truly the lone wolfhe president this monday morning? kevin: not that alone. i want to follow up on something we were reporting on on friday on "surveillance" with regard to senate judiciary committee chairman chuck grassley bringing forth the bipartisan bill that would make it more difficult for president trump to fire bob mueller in that investigation by giving congress approval. house speaker paul ryan, the was not n who said seeking re-election said he was undecided whether or not he'd bring that same piece of legislation to the house floor. that would suggest that speaker ryan is not taking that particular hard line approach as the senate judiciary committee chairman is considering. francine: there's quite a lot going on, cohen and stormy daniels are appearing in court today and the president is also moving to block the investigator's review of this evidence. you ever see anything like it. kevin: here's what i say. you look at this matter, we have a lot of lawyers watching and listening and they know

tom for white women who disappoint other white women. >> good for sarah huckabee sanders, she rose above it she did not give wolf any sort of reaction.o was the president of the association margaret, a reporter from bloomberg, she knew what she was getting. she said i invited her because i thought she was a talented comedian with a message to deliver. oh, she delivered a message and now people are distancing themselves from the white house correspondent association. "the washington post" today says you know what? get rid of it. it's done. stick a fork in it. ainsley: you know, the comedian later said i was complimenting her eye, her smoky eye. brian: she was mocking the critics. ainsley: chelsea handler keeps talking about her eye mikeup. it's fine. i don't understand that it's not funny. aunt lydia and handmaid's tale. that's not funny. sarah huckabee sanders looked beautiful. she was sitting 5 feet from her right there on the stage. you know, and she handled herself gracefully. look how pretty she looks. she looks amazing. do you know how long it takes for us to go when we go for a fancy event for us to find a dress and get our hai

wolf said you should have done your research. >> journalists should have done their research. >> but, b, i'll also say that the comment about sarah sanders an uncle tomte women who disappoint other white women, that's not really funny, that not only insults sarah sanders, it inas a results 25 million women who voted for dronald trump. >> well, there were a number of levels in which this dinner, some say, went off the rails. what stood out to you? were you there? i'm hearing the room was icy and didn't like it and you could see the people on stage who were in complete pain at times during this performance. >> it's monday, it's time to get back to work, focus on the reporting. i was at the dinner. what i'm looking at in my notebook mika is not so much the dinner because the lawmakers i'm covering, the people i'm covering aren't paying attention to it. they pay attention to the president's speech and say how can republicans echo that kind of message, that kind of rambling speech he gave, that same night as the dinner and they wonder where is the message on the tax cuts, where is the focus from the white house and there's deep concern in gop ranks that t
