past administrations agree the nuclear triad needs to be modernized.erts are concerned that developing new nukes is an expensive way to bargain with the russians. >> bret: jennifer griffin, thank you. president trump is suggesting in an interview that he has developed a positive relationship with north korean leader kim jong un but he declined to tell "the wall street journal" whether the two have spoken. the president because his relationship with kemp "very good." the remarks come after north and south korea held their first talks into years and the north agreed to participate in the winter olympics in south korea next month. up next, the house passes a new fisa extension. the senate is up next. we will ask the panel whether that's good or bad. what did the president say in the oval office meeting? first, beyond our borders. german chancellor angela merkel is expressing confidence her party can find common ground with center left social democrats in germany and establish formal coalition talk talks. if angela merkel is unable to establish and ruling

. >> someone who thinks the nuclear triad is a rock band from the 1980s. >> oh, yeah. >> trevor: see,publicans think trump is an idiot. jeb's campaign slogan was literally trump's an idiot, please clap. ( applause ) so an f.b.i. eight calling trump and idiot wasn't the bombshell some hoped for. this week more texts emerged between f.b.i. staffs and for many conspiracy theorists christmas came early. >> one of the texts according to republicans who reviewed them discussed these two individuals talking about a secret society on the day after trump's election. >> trevor: that was lisa page's text! she said that we need to be able to get together and have our secret society meeting. >> of course, i'm going to want to know what secret society are you talking about. >> let me see the text. they used that. the first meeting to have the secret society. not my words, it's theirs into the f.b.i. has a secret society that they call "the secret society"? that's really sinister and a little obvious.

powers are proceeding with nuclear modernization and the united states is modernizing the nuclear triad i frankly support that as long as nuclear weapons are in the world the united states needs to maintain a safe secure and effective arsenal and the age of the current u.s. arsenal is such that it's hard to maintain its safety frankly going forward so in my view modernization is necessary but it must be coupled with continuing work on disarmament so it's fine if we modernize the arsenal but it doesn't mean that there's going to be a big build up and fact the numbers are coming down and they need to continue to come down so you can modernize but you modernize in a judicious and a measured way and i think that's a very important point that people lose that modernization it means a big burst again of building missiles building submarines bombers nuclear warheads no it means judicious keeping the numbers coming down but on the possibility that the u.s. is now reversing the strategy of i mean clear free world it seems to be a worrying sign for plenty of people the arms control community back

there are suspicions that triad gang members are paid to intimidate activists. told to attack the umbrella movement. when i was serving the prison sentence injail, i met a lot of inmates who claimed they had background, come from the gangster and they receive money to attack or physically assault us duringumbrella movement. joshua doesn't know who paid them. the prison authorities deny mistreatment and we were unable to speak to prisoners to confirm the claim of intimidation. those who fight for hong kong's legal independence say they're also fighting for its cultural identity. i am meeting someone who may well be at the heart of the next flashpoint. hong kong football fans have been booing the chinese national anthem when it's played at home games. now, beijing has told hong kong to criminalise the jeering. the national anthem is not representation of hong kong... jack and hundreds like him will be breaking the law if they carry on booing. why do football fans boo the chinese national anthem? we don't think that we are chinese, we are hong kong. the difference

both with regard to the nuclear weapons themselves and their delivery systems called the triad.ubmarines, bomber fleets and icbms. whether that's enough in the long run i'm not sure. at least there is consensus on what we need to get going. >>paul: the small nuclear weapons point, i wonder if there will be a political consensus because some of the democrats may end up blocking the development of new weapons thinking this will make nuclear war more likely. rather than your excellent point about discriminant deterrence. that if you can just take out for example, kim jong-un's leadership as opposed to annihilating the peninsula, you want to do that. >> right, exactly. the consensus is on the modernization plan. that is to say upgrading our production and building facilities. creating the new weapons - - refurbishing the old weapons and providing a new mechanism for delivery in all three, sea, land and air-based weapons. what's there hasn't been a consensus around and will have to be debated is the development of these two slightly different kinds of weapons. you are exactly right.

ability to get inside our system and what if this was a strategic command or norad or the nuclear triadthat has some type of false alarm. all of those things jump out at me. and then as a resident of florida, as were up there, everyone that we knew had to duck and cover in drills left over from the cuban crisis. i remember downtown, yellow nuclear science that denoted shelters. and it was one more thing. are we moving back toward that era? without a second cold war with russia and these rogue states. >> people are asking that question. as we learn more about what the people of hawaii have as their emergency plan, which includes getting flat on the floor, stay away from windows. there really is nowhere to go. as we know now, it takes 15 or 20 minutes for something to hit hawaii if it were to come from north korea. what do you think should be happening now with your expertise? >> there are two pieces. there are people who obviously, our true experts at this. but there is to survive the actual blast. if you are -- >> we may have lost are aligned with lt. col michael waltz. i want to thank

military, expanding the self-defense, finishing the modernization of the obama promised on the nuclear triad, but making sure we have the best nuclear weapons the world has ever seen, and that makes everybody nervous. i say do it, because nuclear weapons are there to preserve peace and avoid conflict. his approach is different, but this is the way i have heard general mcmaster talk about the way he had talked about it, and the president is not great at explaining a lot of this, which is why it lends to confusion and misunderstanding. is very good at understanding what the president wants, explaining it, nikki is one oferal mattis few words, but he is one to watch and pay attention to what he says. what we are trying to do is regain the strategic advantage. we not withdrawing from the world. the rumors of a isolation was not part of what president trump wanted to do. he wanted american strength to be such that we could intervene when it was in our interests and not when it was in our interests and just sort of great gain the american strategic footing. so i think they are doing well. i think

you used to be involved with our nuclear arsenal so far as the air was involved in the triad.? >> well, they made a mistake. it is that simple but let's take the best lesson out of it. let's make sure we have credible deterrents there. let's not focus on a person hitting the wrong button. do we have a credible nuclear deterrent in theater in south korea and for north korea? i do not think we do and continuing resolution, this friday, they are hurting our military hugely, david. our military hasn't had an ability because of continuing resolution does not allow the military to have new starts on equipment. david: yeah. >> we need that to get a credible deterrent. david: no doubt a government shutdown would hurt our ability to get that deterrent but again, i don't want to focus too much in the weeds but ha was putting the blame on fema for what happened. they said, that's why they took so long to be able to turn off the alert. fema has struck back saying, that fema approval was not required to send retraction message. the hawaiian emergency management agency possesses the authori

segue for us are this another story to do with hong kong if extern result people's traffic in plastic triads mainly about china and china doesn't want you waste anymore it's going to have a significant impact on your country in fact few years china's been a dumping ground for it cause young foreign rubbish but outsole changes of the first day of twenty eighteen now twenty four types of waste from the likes of the u.s. u.k. and hong kong all banned from entering the country why well china's environment is suffering and so are its citizens with better health but the ban will have massive right precautions on the global multibillion dollar waste disposal and recycling industry and countries who rely on china suddenly trying to find new markets to get rid of their rubbish now the european commission has even trying to convince china to delay the van and of course hasn't happened but to put this into context since the nineteen eighties china's been the world's largest importer of waste and process of recycled materials so much so that on average it processed around seven point three million tonne

or north dakota, whether you're a bomber pilot out of north dakota or working the nuclear missile triadn north dakota, air force in missouri or beyond, you're looking at this thinking what are the people doing? it's not just the men and women in the field impacted. the men and women in uniform around the world impacted by this. it's their families. think about the families in the military, these people aren't making bucket loads of money. they're sacrificing each and every day and now worry about a paycheck and husband or wife's well-being. it's sad what the democrats are willing to do this this country. 6,000 civilians in colorado could be furloughed who support our critical defense mission and this is unacceptable. neil: not surprising you brought up north dakota and missouri. i was waiting for west virginia. cory, good to have you as always, senator. >> thanks, leland. leland: gillian. gillian: and women's marches, demonstrations the same time last year and activists are in place in washington d.c., chicago, new york, l.a., dozens of other cities. caroline shively is here with the la

but i think it's largely the atmosphere that is established by the triad. in particular the commanding officer. so we have to do more focus more on our commanding officers to get them to understand and learn the lessons from the two tragedies. that they don't want to be that commanding officer. in the way you don't be that is by having forceful back up. forceful back up come from jr. officers and crew members across the spectrum. who when they don't feel right or doesn't look right, it's not standard procedure the commands aren't standard, they question it. and just that question alone can often avert a disaster. that's what i mean by the radical candor. it's a strong term that i use just to get people to think about how candid are you going to be. that's all. nothing more. >> thanks, chief. you have a lot on your plate. any day for the vice chief you have a lot on your plate. today particularly so. and we want to support you if there's anything we can do in this effort let us know. whether it's a survey or whether it's some type of pulsing. to get informat

if you look at our nuclear triad, all three parts are aging. the of any recommendations for what we need to do now -- do you have any recommendations for what we need to do now? i believe in the tremendous importance of getting rid of nuclear weapons. as long if there are nuclear weapons the united states must have a robust, secure, and safe arsenal to use for deterrence and for a basis from which to negotiate down. >> we really haven't been doing any modernization since you have been at the helm. i read, but i guess was an early version somehow, that was sent to me of the national security strategy. i like to the beginning of it because it talked about our commitment to getting rid of nuclear weapons or it as you read on -- weapons. as you read on it sort of -- this notion of using them that is spreading around is deeply disturbing to me. because of the consequences. do you remember the chernobyl nuclear power plant accident? river the first meeting i had after that. i found that he had asked the same question i had, what is the distinction be

finishing the modernization of the obama administration promised on the nuclear triad. --ing sure the donald trump areican nuclear weapons there to preserve the peace and to deter conflict. anyway, his approach is very different, but the way i have heard general mcmaster talk about the way he has talked about it, and the president isn't great at explaining a lot of this stuff, which is why it lends itself to a lot of misunderstanding. mcmaster is very good at understanding what the president wants and explaining it. the same with nikki haley and matus --with nikki haley in general matus. but we are to do is regain the strategic advantage. from thet withdrawing world. rumors of isolation was something i was worried about. that is not what president trump wanted to do. he wanted american strength to be such that we could intervene when it was in our interest, and not when it was in our interest. and just sort of regain the american strategic footing. i think demonstration is doing well. i think sometimes the president's rhetoric gets in the way of himself. sometimes, but

and triad gin as well, including from my region. tom: the wines of manchester. woolfe, greatly appreciated. james bevan with us. he'll discuss wines and champagne as well. we are thrilled to bring jeffrey currie from goldman sachs and oil, at the high end of its range. stay with us worldwide. this is bloomberg. ♪ you francine: this is "bloomberg surveillance," with tom and francine from london and new york. tom, we will be in london next week and then we migrate to davos on january 19. we were speaking with steven woolfe, joining us from brussels a moment ago. i'm interested talking more about the column written by philip hammond and david davis. this is a push by both gentlemen for the case of financial services, saying if you punish u.k. financial services, germany will also b e hurt. let's get back to james bevan, the chief financial officer at investmentia management. i don't know if this is a good tactic, going to the country without a coalition, without a real government, and trying to get the citizens on board, that they should be softer on brexit. james:

in order for us to reinforce the triad and do whatever is necessary in the way of antimissile defenseure can be applied on the democrats must be applied. stuart: well, the democrats are saying, okay, you can have your increase if you increase social spending by the same amount. >> this is absurd. it is absurd this large part because there are issues that transcend the normal discussion in the political arena. this is one of them. if we are talking about the future of the united states, to some degree the security of america is critical. and that security is very much dependent on our having the requisite military strength to deal with our enemies. stuart: and you've got to stand firm on the dreamers. sure, let 'em stay, but in return you've got to build a wall, you've got to get rid of chain migration, you've got to get rid of the lottery. that would be a reasonable deal. >> you made reference to a merit-based immigration system. this is what we must have. the canadians have it, the australians have it. this is what makes sense in the united states. it's not a question of whether we w
