how does that pose a threat to the united states? mr. kroenig: i think it poses a number of challenges, one, to the topic we just discussed, china is shipping fentanyl precursors through the panama canal. second, by operating the ports there and including surveillance, chinese surveillance technology, they're using that to collect information that's going back to beijing and may not be classified information but sensitive china could use to exploit for an intelligence advantage. china could seek to hinder trade through the canal which would have economic -- negative economic consequences for america's well-being. mr. gimenez: how can they hinder trade or stop it? the port operators on both sides, do they determine who goes first and who goes second, etc., off how does it work in the panama canal? mr. kroenig: in terms of the specific operations some of my colleagues may be better to speak to that but halting, disrupting trade in a place like that would not be very difficult. i think we've seen in other cases where ships get stuck and say

did it to such a degree as the united states. and that's what's, that's what, that's american exceptionalism. that brings me to the monroe doctrine. would you talk about in your forthcoming book america, america? this was a doctrine created under us president, james monroe in 1823 as a response to latin american independence movements. uh, talked about this doctrine. how does it continue to influence us policy in the americas 2 centuries later? yeah, the actual monro docs and it was just a couple of paragraphs. and in james monroe and state of the union address and you know, when it would, they weren't even continuous paragraphs. they basically said the united states was going to recognize the independence of, of latin america, a south american nation, spanish american nations. and that it wouldn't, it wouldn't allow that re conquests by european powers. the latin americans liked that part they, they, they read it, they thought they were hearing a kind of anti colonial sentiment. they would not be a recall on his ation of, of the

the united states should not have allowed this to happen. the united states, run by a man that didn't know much -- i'm going to be very nice. run by an incompetent person, very incompetent person, should never have allowed this to happen. i have stopped many wars. i have stop the words nobody ever heard about. i stopped wars before they ever started. i could give you nations i will tell you right now that were probably going to work. i could tell you there's a nation thinking about going to war on something nobody in this room has ever even heard about. two smaller nations, but big -- still big.and i think i have stopped it. this should have never happened. pres. zelenskyy: just a second. about the negotiations. i want to tell you and i think everybody understands that ukraine, more than ukrainians, nobody wants to stop this war. it's understandable that two sides of the war, not russia and the united states, because this is not a war between russia and the united states but a war against ukraine and the ukrainian people, so these two sides

united states. uh, did not. uh, the uh, the on the europeans did not give an order to its vassals, to use your language, to make sure that they aligned themselves with the matter with the new american position. the united states has just changed if a position and is arguing uh with, with where do your p is about the wisdom of that position. so it's not, as it's not as simple as the does, it does it sometimes as, as, as it's something i knew sometimes it looks also let me, let me underline one important issue. many of the country is uh of the, with the bricks group, including china and india did not vote with russia on that very important issue. the chinese of the, in just abstain. they have their own reasons why they upstate, you know that, but they've always been abstaining on the, on the, on that issue of probably because of the issue of j tauriel integrity, a national sovereignty involved ability board as is a, is an issue that resumes very much in their own countries and their own societies. but the truth is

if the united states pulls out and it, it looks very much that the united states is in the process. now pulling out the conflict is over. it's done. and this is something that you'll lensky either does not understand yet, or is not willing to accept. but this is today's reality, and it was laid out in the oval office this afternoon for all to see. all right, you have our lives, the grammar who has been shared support or of, of ukraine throughout the war has come out on the side of trump. best buy the speaker listed president trump was in a very good mood last night and somebody asked me, am i embarrassed about trump? i have never been more proud of the present. i was very proud of j. d, but standing up for our culture, we want to be helpful. when i saw in the oval office was disrespectful. and i don't know if we can ever do business with zelinski again. well, boy say now though, i'll ask the question now is ukraine the boss? this last now or is the landscape taking a huge gamble that the he things might ultimately pay off? what are you seeing? i think right now in these, in these ho

the united states state department had a press release. that is no longer there, but we did archived this. it said that there were peaceful, biological laboratories in ukraine. to me, it's kind of strange that they put the words peaceful as if they were trying to deny something. normally you do not expect normal biological laboratories to be not peaceful. the general is joan dubin visited one center of the board tree. it was very safe to wait storage and basically they were both of trials on on suspension, launched an investigation to shortly alter the us government once again, denied it. so the board res existed in ukraine. on march the 10th 2022 pentagon press secretary, john covey made a special statement on the mass. so we are not developing bio, logical, or chemical weapons inside you. crank is not avenue. now people were starting to realize how disingenuous and untruthful the united states has been with a lot of these vile, the biological labs that have been in ukraine. they've been getting a lot of coverage there is. now i do have o

why is the united states -- we have an ocean in between -- why is the united states in for so much more money and other things as europe? with that being said -- and as you said they've been very helpful. but we have put in far more than they have. and i think they should equalize. >> mr. president -- president trump: what changed between the first time that the secretary gave zelensky the agreement and today? president trump: we made a deal. i'm just -- i'm a business person. we made a deal, that's what changed. i didn't think we were going to make a deal. and we ended up making the deal. so that changed. >> how do you envision a trilateral -- >> well, they don't like each other, i can tell you that. they do not like each other. this is not a love match. it's unfortunate. the united states should not have allowed this to happen, ok? the united states run by a man that didn't know much. i'm going to be very nice. run by an incompetent person, very incompetent person should never have allowed this to happen. i've stopped wars. i've stopped many wars. people will tell you, i've stopped wa

this program was not a agreement between georgia and the united states. it was there was one sided in position that they should do. this seems like because shortly off to these statements, old major us and european use agencies stop working with silverman and presidents august release administration site to him as well. i wrote some articles, publish them and local media. i gave interviews to george and newspapers, and actually everybody jumped on me. the embassy wrote in their reports and press relations, as the silverman is not to be trusting the nasa t, the truthfulness of his information is in question. despite the backlash, he continued investigating those who didn't want the us journalist to go public with his discoveries reacted soon enough. as a result of this, i've been kidnapped off the street. and if you look at the lower level is basically the crown, the flagship, the crown 0 of a network of laboratories in smaller lives in armenia, as you be john center, asia, africa was that email local reveals while he's concealed behind the high walls of t

the united is the current administration. and, and the message that trump wanted to send is we're seeing a different to, so we're going to embarrass him in front of his own country. and because the top knows that lensky isn't truly the power behind all this, he lensky is the front. and he's the public figure, but really there are other so called politicians, actually not politicians. we know that, you know, the, the, the as a fatality and others that are truly in command and zalinski and on top of all that has not called for new elections. he's going to resign in may, so it's already, he's already on. he's running, he's already on bar of time. yeah. so i think trump wanted to make it clear, most especially perhaps to president, to, to, is that he's very serious about terminating this conflict and getting on a new relationship with russia. and he was also sending a very clear message to you or we will see what happens on monday. yeah, i, i can't wait to see kind of call us his face. oh my goodness, why the face kaya? yes. beca

that was the official position of the united states. i vividly recall being briefed by leaders in the biden administration telling us that this war was going to be over in 5 to 6 days. they believe that that was their assessment at the time, and it wasn't the case because of the weapons that ukraine had in its stocks, because of president trump and his first term. so he should have been grateful for that and grateful for what we're doing now. and one more point. it's not just president trump. there's there's news reports out there from nbc news. at least one of the places i recall reporting that biden had a shouting match with zelenskyy for not being grateful and not being thankful for everything that was provided back in 2022. now, that didn't happen in front of the press. that was leaked, but it got out there. it's these frustrations are not unique to president trump. there was those frustrations in the previous administration. if nbc news is to be believed. >> but but but obviously we've never seen anything like what we saw today. bu

the united states will brook no criticism of vladimir putin in the oval office of the united states. the american president is only interested in dictating to ukraine the terms of its surrender to russia. and oh, by the way, give us half of your mineral rights on the way out. and what this means for europe and ukraine is that they are now on the other side of the negotiating table from the united states and russia. they are going to have to figure out what ukraine is going to try to live with. they're going to have to figure out what european troops might be a part of a security guarantee for ukraine. but more broadly, chris, as you were alluding to very accurately in your lead in the united states is now a part of the club. russia, china, the gulf arab autocrats. donald trump wants to live in a world of pure transactionalism in which might makes right and big and powerful and rich countries make deals over the heads of democracies, over the heads of vulnerable people. it's the mirror image of what he does at home. he's a bully. he doesn't pick on people his own size. he picks on peo

grateful to the united states for its overwhelming support. i came here to the united states. >> to forward. >> the thank. >> the word of. >> thanks to the. >> people of america. >> thank you so much, mr. president. thank you for all this. 575 days. yes. and thanks to the american people. i like to thank american partners for the support. mr. president, thank you. your team. i would also like to thank the united states congress for their support. both parties, both chambers. we deeply appreciate that ukraine and america have stood side by side from the very first moments of this terrible russian invasion. >> rick. >> you know, i guess i guess the question is, what are we to make. >> of what we witnessed today. and. >> the clear. >> clear move by. >> this president to solidify his relationship with. >> vladimir putin. >> michael, i'm glad you played that clip of mr. zelensky thanking america over and over. and when you when j.d. vance asked, have you said thank you, i thought, did george marshall ever ask france to say thank you? did he ever as

he disrespected the united states of america and its cherished oval office.ack when ready for peace. president zelenskyy expressed gratitude to the american people after his class with president trump, writing on x, thank you america, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. thank you potus, congress, and the american people. ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that. with me to discuss this is our state department correspondent, tom bateman. tom, you have covered many visits of world leaders to the oval office. have you ever seen anything play out quite like today? >> absolutely nothing. it was unprecedented. i think it shows that what was already a very vulnerable and precarious position for volodymyr zelenskyy has deteriorated now into an unprecedented golf, a rift between his country and its superpower sponsor up until now, supporting it during this war into utterly unknown territory. i think at the moment, -- i think the moment that clearly rankled mr. trump the most, and when you saw these recriminations floo

well, the united states president is taking no position on that.t he said today is let him come back when he's ready to do peace. that's what he said. let him come back when he's ready to do peace. so i can't speak for what anybody else said. i can only go off the words from the president of the united states, and that is today. we're not this is not going to be productive any further. when zelenskyy is ready to make peace and he's serious about peace, let him come back then. and that's when we'll reengage with them. and what he means by that is when how will you measure that? well, i think it's everything i've said already, and that is, how are you going to get vladimir putin and the russian federation to a table to discuss even the opportunity, whether even to explore whether there's an opportunity for peace? you're not going to do it by calling them names. that makes everybody feel very good. you can pass resolutions. you can put out very strongly worded statements. senators can do it. i did when i was in the senate. house members can do it, com

he disses back united states of america in its cherished oval office.ack when he is ready for peace." let's go back to the start of that meeting, which began in friendlier circumstances with both leaders saying they were ready for an agreement that could help to bring an end to the war in ukraine. let's have a listen back. >> your soldiers have been unbelievably brave. we have given them great equipment and somebody has to use the equipment. they have been unbelievably brave. we give them credit. this was supposed to be over quickly. here we are three years later. i give tremendous credit to your generals and your soldiers and yourself in the sense that, it's been very hard fighting. very tough fighting. great fighters. you have to be very proud of them from that standpoint. pres. zelenskyy: i am very proud. pres. trump: but now we want to get it over with. it's enough. it's an honor to have you here. thank you for coming. pres. zelenskyy: thank you for the invitation. and i really hope that this document will be the first step to real security guarante

>> alumni of. >> the. >> united states army. that's what i'm an alumni of. and millions of veterans around this country saw that today on our outrage of all backgrounds, because of the there. >> are millions. >> who saw. >> it. >> because there. >> are. >> people like you. who are from our president. >> standing with putin instead of with america, standing. >> with putin with that. >> zelenskyy shouldn't have opened. >> his mouth to. why did zelenskyy, our ally in a trench fight. so i don't want to go into a fight with any of you by my side. but why did he jump into a conversation just like no one asked any gentlemen? no one asked about lewinsky today, jen psaki interjected himself into it. and you. >> are selling out. >> jen psaki. >> please stop talking, okay? everybody is talking at the same time. >> i'm fine with. >> my statements, guys. >> everybody is talking at the same time. that does not work, okay? we cannot hear a word you are saying. i understand there are, you know, a lot of very high emotions about this topic, but

so it's a different problem said, united states can bring to bear on. do you bring in to be more crawford before just to punish them? as the term tends to be hard. crowley is a former us assistant secretary of state for public says on the president barack obama. he says the blow up in the oval office is a bad luck for the us and ukraine. this was supposed to be a very straightforward, you know, diplomatic initiative. you know, to sure up us ukrainian relations prior to the beginning of the goal. she ations and obviously what we're seeing now is the relationship in adult spiral. adults on clear if for the leaders can that can pull it out before it actually crashes. the truck administration has broken the alliance between united states ukraine and now they own the consequences of that. you know, can ukraine survive in its current state without you are dramatic us military assistance. probably. ok in the short term, certainly not sustainable in the long term. so i think you're once the um, the anchor on all sides passes. the question will be, you can coole

the united states can and should be a leader in dealing in stable coins.ction efficiency, expand financial inclusion, strengthen the dollar's status as a world reserve currency. all while driving demand in u.s. treasury. i'm optimistic will vent legislation and demonstrate common sense framework for digital assets as a bipartisan priority. this progress will build momentum and other crucial areas such as market structure for digital assets. i've having no regulation does nothing to stymie bad actors is pushing innovation beyond our shores. we need a regulatory clarity for digital assets to both protect consumers and to be a leader in the industry. thank you madam l chair. >> the chair recognizes ms. smith. >> thank you madam chair and ranking member thanks all of our panelists for being here today. i appreciate this very much having the opportunity to learn about, and hear your thoughts about what we need to do to provide a robust and reasonable regulatory framework for stable coin. i want to focus my questions on better understanding how consumer protecti

under donald trump, the united states will abandon an allied democracy.ort the autocrat. we will support vladimir putin instead. do you see it that way? and can you help us understand the broader implications of what we saw today? >> tragically, i see it that way. and you just presented a lot of evidence to support that hypothesis before the commercial break. and i just this is such a sad day for me personally, as somebody who cares about democracy and finds autocracies and i know american history, we haven't been perfect. we haven't always been on the side of the democrats, but we have a long standing tradition of standing up to autocrats. think about it. all of our enemies, throughout all of our history have been dictatorships. our most enduring allies. our strongest allies have always been democracies. and today our president wants to switch sides in the struggle between autocrats and democrats. he doesn't want to be the leader of the free world. he wants to join the autocratic club. and i just think it's sad on a kind of ethical and moral level. but i

uh, the truck administration has broken the elias between united states ukraine and now they own the consequences of that you'll can ukraine survive and it's current state without you are dramatic us military assistance. probably. okay, in the short term. certainly not sustainable in the long term. so i think you're once the, um, the anger on all sides passes. the question will be, you know, can cooler heads, try to sticks this back together again over time, but it's going to take time, you know, to accomplish. then you say the trump administration has broken the lines, the trump administration is clearly trying to create something very different than, than what the americans and europeans are used to. is that the might going to lead or couldn't lead to, to the us and trump losing the mantle of leader of the free world? that certainly is one of the dangers. i know there's not necessarily a 6 clear successor to the united states as leaders of the, for our leave or the free world. but certainly in a vacuum. this is something that china can take advantage of. you know, that russia will

the vice president of the united states lit into him. j.d.t deliberately. >> this was really -- i have never been embarrassed to be an american and today was embarrassing. it was awful. layer. >> laura: he is embarrassed. adam kinzinger is embarrassed. do they realize they're hurting their cause being on television. any positive outcome for ukraine? >> yeah, the america last crowd has always got something to say. i think today was telling. i think people should pay attention to the people defending zelenskyy, versus the people defending america. so it's kind of a defining day. i think a fault line that had existed for a while is now out in the open. and it's very, as you said, it's very educational and instructive. the truth of the matter is we are americans. that's our president. and no foreign leader comes into the oval office and disrespects us that way. >> laura: never. >> especially when we are trying to help. >> could you ever imagine joe biden in any sense of the word he would just basically sit there and nod and hold those cards in hi

and i don't think you would be a tough guy without the united states.r people are very brave but you will either make a deal or we are out. and if we are out you will fight it out to. i don't think it will be pretty. what you will find it out. but you don't have the cards. once we signed that deal you are in a much better position. but you were not acting at all thankful of. and that is not a nice thing. i will be honest that is not a nice thing. >> jesse: trump and zelenskyy were supposed to have a joint press conference afterwards, it did not happen. they were supposed to have lunch together as well but trump kicked zelenskyy out of the white house. and the white house staff eight zelenskyy lunch. >> we had a meeting today as you know with president zelenskyy and i would say it did not work out exactly great from his standpoint. i think you very much overplayed his hand. we are looking for peace, we are not looking for somebody that will sign up a strong power and then and not make peace because they feel emboldened and that is what i saw happening. i

than the president of the united states actions.kes america the good country is america engaging in diplomacy. that is what president trump is doing. >> what kind of diplomacy are you speaking about? what do you mean? >> i'm talking about the kind of diplomacy that will and the destruction of your company. mr. president, with respect, i think it is disrespectful for you to come to the oval office and try to litigate this in front of the american media. right now you were going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems. you should be thanking the president for coming into this conflict. and you think it's respectful to come to the oval office of the united states of america and attacked the administration that is trying to prevent the destruction of your country? >> a lot of questions, let's start from the beginning. first of all, during the war, everybody has problems. even you. but you have a nice ocean and don't feel it. but you will feel it in the future. >> you don't know that. >> god bl

united, we will achieve big goals and we will not be there punching bag anymore.applause] through grit, faith and determination, we will rise together and seize the moment. as a team, west virginia will win. i have to say i saw the new football coach. i hope your team comes with a hard edge. it's time for wvu so win. i cannot help but think about how unlikely this journey has been. i grew up in a working class family. my dad was a world war ii veteran. he worked for a steel company. my mom was a dedicated be a nurse for 38 years -- dedicated v.a. nurse for 38 years. she told me some incredible stories. both my mom and dad taught me the value of hard work, integrity and never being entitled to anything. my parents knew what it meant to put in a hard days work, overcome challenges, and to sacrifice to give their kids a better life. i wouldn't be here without the values they instilled in me. thank you, mom and dad. [applause] we did not have much money growing up but we did have faith, that through hard work and perseverance we could achieve so much. i was the first

. >> throwing up his hands and kissing the ring of the president of the united states who is behavingself as an incipient authoritarian. >> most of us when we saw this we said what the hell. like something we have never heard her. august the opinion pages can go their own direction but to say we don't publish opposing viewpoints i'm seeing it shocking at best. >> greg: you know what it shocking? he still has a job. it is not what he said, you bozo, and suddenly the papers of the opinion editor quit in protest. it is funny you would thank the media would embrace the idea of freedom but they are not. why is that? why are they against so many things that make sense like cotton waste, deporting and giving justin trudeau and massive yg? it is because trump is for those things which to the left makes a more toxic than brian stelter's boxers after taco tuesday. true if trump found a cure for cancer of the media would call it an attack on cellular democracy. trump is so hard to deal with the media has now come out against the freedoms periods personal goals aligned with the countries. that is

the truck administration has broken the alliance between united states and ukraine, and now they own the consequences of that, you know, can ukraine survive in its current state without us dramatic us military systems? probably. okay, in the short term, certainly not sustainable in the long term. so i think you're once the, um, the anger on all sides passes. the question will be, you can cooler heads, try to sticks this back together again over time, but it's going to take time, you know, to accomplish then clearly the truck administration has been signaling a dramatic shift in us policy towards ukraine. you know, but this was mismanaged by the white house. this was mismanaged by the ukranian side. we know these were very blunt words. they are not surprising and of themselves. what's shocking is that they occurred in the public domain. all right, but the bottom line is this was a very bad day for ukraine, a bad day for the united states and to very, very good day for russian. the, on his way the delegation has returned home for consultations with prime minister benjamin netanyahu. of

united states, it had very much the feeling of an ambush. and, you know, president zelenskyy has thanked me, thanked the delegations that i visited ukraine with six times. i've met with him probably 15 times in total. every one of those meetings, as you've said. so. well, he has expressed his gratitude to the american people. and i think now we have to put it back together. i'm hopeful. i can't say i'm confident, but i am hopeful that at the staff level, at the diplomatic level, at the congressional level, we will preserve and use our bipartisan coalition. >> so so, gary, i mean, the body language, though, was incredible today. i mean, this is what i think just no one's ever seen anything like this in public, right? trump's pointing at him. right. you know, leaning in, um, zelenskyy trump's face then gets red. you know just the look on zelenskyy's face in some of these moments here that we've screengrabbed i mean, why do you think trump chose to respond to this? he made a comment at the end. gary, this is gonna be great tv, right? he was hyp

and when i say we, i mean, so united states and her opinions, canadians, japanese, and authors, we must think old folks who helped ever split with coast who has been fighting since the beginning because they fight for their dignity, their independence to their children. and the security of either of these simple things, or the, we must to call off on this moment. we don't wanna contain how small on the european reaction from by then we've also been hearing from people in balance from people as i say around the conference, staffing in berlin, hearing from the current, sean. so the, that's the outgoing john. so the order of shots he lost the election last sunday. he wouldn't be in his job for much longer, but so far he said on social media, no one wants peace more than the ukrainians. do that for we are working on a common pos to a last thing and just piece he goes on. ukraine can rely on germany and on europe. similar sort of sentiment coming from his neighboring head of government in poland. donald chose the prime minister saying, the fellow to me, is it lensky. this is on social media.

>> well, you know, as a former chief of staff to a president of the united states, the last thing you want is what happened today in the oval office. to have that kind of shouting match take place before the cameras and to show the disruption that obviously was present. >> we got a chance to talk to "face the nation" moderator margaret brennan about how the world is responding to that oval office meeting. >> this explosion in front of the cameras really did cause reverberations around the world when it comes to allies in europe concerned that the americans are walking away from the commitment to defending this democracy against -- the democracy of ukraine against the aggression from vladimir putin. remember, it was earlier this week that the trump administration changed the u.s. policy and told diplomats not to acknowledge russia was the aggressor during proceedings at the united nations. so there is a big concern here that this isn't just a clash of two personalities, that this is a change in the alignment of the united states. >> coming up at 5:30, we'll hear from a former u.s. amba

ukraine, that they do a principled issue where the united states stands up for democracy in the face of aggression by an authoritarian neighbor, but one where this kind of transactional deal of one kind, you know, involving, you know, for example, the. the minerals or, or something else in return. so, yeah, it was, it was, it was rather disturbing. >> yeah. can we talk about this deal for rare earth minerals in ukraine? and president trump essentially has said that he believes that if this deal were to be signed, it would effectively end the fighting in ukraine. can you help us understand why the president believes that would be the case? >> well, i mean, in the fighting, if zelensky agreed to a cease fire and have russia remain in control of 20% of the country and but zelensky, understandably, and the overwhelming majority of ukrainians are with him, is that they that is unacceptable, that they are willing to fight for every inch of their land. and so now there is reasonable debate. there is reasonable debate among those who would argue that, yes, russia is clearly in the wrong, but

so, so different problems that united states can bring to bear on. do you bring in to be more proper before just to punish them as the term tends to be. adam came in. this is a former pentagon official. he says, there is still room for a mineral steel to be made. are behind the scenes behind the political a noise to to can you still consider that this a, all things may not be lost for ukraine. i think that presents it lensky probably saw a need to at least fight back have already solve this renewed relationship between president trump and president putin of bringing rusher back in from the cold. so he thought back a felt back with some clear talking points. of course, thought back with some facts of going back. many different yeah, back to the obama administration. and so i think out of all this political noise that will no doubt continue in the coming days. that president trump would try to still show that he was in the superior position that he will continue to probably undermine present visual is the once he publicly i still don't think all is los

but thought i would just say shop, cuz usually it's in units. the least, the most of the machine you spend this month, or how many cars corruption present to them. plenty of the the in the early 1880 brands decided to subjugate madagascar. however, the malagasy king refused to submit it $1883.00. during the 1st franco malagasy wars, the french sent punitive expedition to for submission on the island, the aggressor ships brutally bombarded the coastal settlements. the invaders managed to forcefully impose control over madagascar and external affairs. but the french wanted more of you years later, they started a full scale village area and phase and ended 18. 95 captured the capital tent and other evil, the commonest exiled queen, run of all on the 3rd, and our prime minister, rieney a letter of une abroad. then the invaders began to clear the island from the malcontents, with iron and blood in 18. $96.00 france declared a protector, ed over man, a gas guard, and in $1897.00, annex the island. the suppression of the liberation movement erupted, me

it's moving over 20 labs of working on the united states programs in ukraine. a load that are around $300.00. some of the centers don't sit around the globe. whatever happens behind the high fences surrounding them is on the russian diplomats trying to raise the issue at the un security council, special meeting of the status of the post up. i think it's a shot of voicing. v. retracing or do i give it to be? i do not, they do much invitation with most or what it is within the bills to shop a bunch of them. so i'm just not gonna, i'm gonna dispute with me like the products, you know, this was threatening you will because of the commodity boost mobile doing it. he's giving you the chance to play sports, then you could just continue squarespace to those talk to people having any ability to feel like he will not move you over the excuse against him, but use both. just leave us a quick confused, go for a lovely little security the storage view solutions are stopping in the us and its allies below the final resolution. citizens of other countries probably haven't hear

i don't think you would be without the united states.r people are very brave. >> thank you. >> you're either going to make a deal or we're out. if we're out, you'll fight it out. i don't think it is going to be pretty. but you'll fight it out. but you don't have the cards. once we sign that deal, you're in a much better position, but you're not acting at all thankful. and that's not a nice thing, i'll be honest. that's not a nice thing. i think we've seen enough, what do you think? this is going to be great television, i will say that. >> reporter: minutes later, a white house official tells nbc news that zelenskyy was asked to leave a private lunch and joint press conference canceled. the president posting zelenskyy disrespected the united states of america in its cherished oval office. >> i would say it didn't work out exactly great from his standpoint, i think he very much overplayed his hand. that was not a man that wanted to make peace. >> reporter: zelenskyy responding. >> i'm very thankful to americans for all your support. you di

with the united states after what i saw? i don't know. >> what did he say to you about his interactions? >> he was shocked. he was very upbeat. i told zelenskyy, we will talk about security guarantees, we will talk about cease-fires and how the war ends. this is a process, you have a new relationship with america, a 500 billion deal that president trump is proud of that gives us an interest worth defending. let's talk about the positive. but he was terrible at munich, zelenskyy and i think he's made it almost impossible to sell to the american people he is a good investment. [reporters clamoring] >> one at a time. >> do you think president zelenskyy needs to resign to resume the peace talks? >> he either needs to resign or send somebody over we can do business with or he needs to change. >> thank you. >> a big event, make america great again again. otherwise i would rather be at the white house. we had some big news because apple is investing $500 billion. it will be a tremendous investment. we have many other companies. a l

the crate ukraine dilemma for both the united states and russia here. and, and one of the criticisms i would have of the approach here is there to, it's too many voices or too many people talking in the us on the west side here. it's very confusing and donald trump is his own worst enemy when it comes to this because he says conflicting things, thomas or yeah, think of everyone else. i'm feeling positively bipolar these days. actually, between for optimism and and pessimism. so as the other guests have said, of course, having an american president and the other as american officials acknowledged that the back yard use of this war. and that this was provoked by nato. and i would add him and deliberately provoked, and it's of course, a huge deal and a big step forward towards achieving a piece. because only wants to acknowledge that the other side is not motivated by rational, crazy impulses, but actually has actual concerns that need to be addressed. the create an environment where you can sit down around the table and try to address the concerns of all

he disrespected the united states of america. he can come back when he's ready for peace. tonight as he was boarding his flight to mar-a-lago, the president with this message to zelenskyy. >> he's got to say, i want to make peace. he doesn't have to stand there and say about putin this, putin that. all negative things. he's got to say, i want to make peace, i don't want to fight a war any longer. his people are dying. he doesn't have the cards. just so you understand it, okay? >> reporter: moments ago, zelenskyy saying this to fox news. >> i'm speaking like a president of a people who are in this struggle three years. and they just want to hear that america on our side and that america will stay with us, not with russia, with us. that's it. >> reporter: now tonight we've learned the trump administration is considering cutting off all ongoing shipments of military aid to ukraine in response to zelenskyy's comments today. now, no final decision has been made, and it's not clear what impact this would have on the battlefield. but it would certainly send a clear and strong mes

institute of defense and security think tank and in the united states in virginia or indeed. and i haven't saw a non resident senior fellow at the foreign policy research institute. here's what laws. the focus is on regional kurdish affairs. a very warm welcome to you. it is a big deal and date the story and actually highly i'd like to start with you for decades of almond struggle for 2000 killed. and now the prospect to piece before we . busy move into the nitty gritty of all this. could you just contextualize as far as just how much of a turning point in history could this be if the p k k and they do laid down their own? thank you for having me on the program. so i'm glad you said good because of course there are multiple possibilities and potentiality is here. but in the event that this does actually leads to a genuine piece and the, the laying down of ours by the p k. k. then i think the ramifications are quite significant, not simply for turkey, but also in syria, a somewhat in a rock as well. and i think that that's the, the key is true here over the past few months. th

and, you know, it's interesting to note the united states has never had an official language. the u. census bureau says that there are more than 350 languages spoken across our country, but three quarters of americans speak only english at home. and the executive order will allow government agencies and organizations that receive federal funding to choose whether they will offer services in other languages. i spoke with todd dubois. he's part of the group us english, which has been working to get this done for years, and he says that they are not against the use of other languages, but just believe that there should be an emphasis on americans learning english. there have been observations time and time again that people make more money and are more successful and just flat out live better lives if they know at least enough english to be considered english proficient. okay, that's his size. what about people on the other side? what are they saying? yeah. so i spoke with some members of san jose's vietnamese american community, and they say that allowing agencies to only use en

. >> the united states is effectively abandoning ukraine.s going to have to look to the europeans. the europeans have already put in more money than the united states in terms of supporting ukraine, are going to have to, you know, perhaps put in the whole lot, which is going to be a strain on their economies where they've been used to this american security umbrella. >> you got to be more thankful. >> professor zunes goes on to say that europe may be the only hope for ukraine if it wants to continue the struggle against russia. well, some california lawmakers are weighing in. senator adam schiff, a longtime critic of president trump, posting on x there was only one person acting presidential in the oval office today, volodymyr zelensky. he stood up to the bullies in a kremlin style shakedown. what will it take to awaken the conscience of the country after such a shameful display? and bay area congressman john garamendi, describing today's events as a, quote, shocking new low to turn our back on an ally when they need our support. well, now t

also know up, but assuming you consider that it's an improve model of the goals bomb showcased the unit 731 museum in hub in. and i just did it still not some of the do for well the center of bottled water is starting us out on saying, and now we're showing it now. so schools can sort of most of your new national products ducks put in as white some gas. it's no more lose it because because most of the products i used to clean up, so you come in to task for them on the to 3 to correct facilities. those are concerned with day to cause a was more you um, a state which is soonest to sort of to these to get this document look that as i get on the bridge, you must do it or what so, and your cultural reading and what that does documents is when one of the search numbers here looks nothing, but i feel comfortable is the fix to the test um here, yes. just lets do read the same level to mean i need you to know so the bus and it but i was you to. so i assume you if you to do judas, of course. uh yeah, fuckin, which one is above the one you could put on your mobile watch. um, launching the court in

europeans we don't need to lose them, they are good allies for the united states. united states is the biggest donator of support and of peace, but we do not need to lose europe and they also want to know next steps. we have to be very open to understand how to stop the war. reaction to the oval office meeting between presidents trump and lenskyy continues to come in. chuck schumer posted this. trump and vance are doing pun's dirty work. senate democrats will ne stop fighting for freedom and democracy. michael lawler had a longer post that reads -- >> and gregory meeks, g member of the house foreign affairs cmittee said this -- >> next week on the c-span networks, the house and senate are in session. the house will vote on gislation to repeal energy and environmenl rules. the senate continues voting on president trump's cabinet nominations including secretaries of education and labor. both chambers are facing a march 14th government funding deadline. the house can begin voting on legislation to extend funding to the end of september 2 of her shutdown on tuesday. th

are democrats united in a strategy to challenge the trump musk overhaul?he court standing up to pressure from the administration? >> well, it's good to be with you, jonathan. and good evening, and thanks for having me on. the answer to your first question is a resounding yes. house democrats are united in responding to the unconstitutional and unlawful. actions by this administration, the executive orders. and of course, as you know, the agency directives, many of which have already been held unconstitutional or unlawful in federal courts across the country. and the vast majority of these cases, the trump administration has failed in defending the propriety of their actions. but i also just want to say this, jonathan, i was listening to your your opening prolog there, and i would just simply say, if there's one group of people in washington that are looking out for the american taxpayers and for the citizens of our country and vindicating our constitution, it's house and senate democrats. the conflicts of interests and potential corruption that you describ

in the oval office before what was to be a luncheon and the signing of a historic deal to give the unitedaccess to ukraine's wealth of minerals. >> maurice: but it quickly turned into a loud argument involving the two presidents and vice president j.d. vance over ending the war, vladimir putin, and whether zelenskyy had shown enough gratitude for u.s. support. in the end, there was no deal, no lunch, and zelenskyy was thrown out of the white house. >> john: and that is where we find our ed o'keefe and begins our coverage. ed? >> reporter: good evening. it was a relatively civil affair for about 40 minutes as the leaders discussed the war, but then the conversation turned as the president and vice president accused zelenskyy of being ungrateful for american support. >> he's all dressed up today. >> reporter: that jab set the tone for the day for these two men who share plenty of history. both tv stars before being elected presidents. ukraine's volodymyr zelenskyy was at the center of president trump's first impeachment. he was accused of asking zelenskyy to investigate unproven claims of f

and it's going to be a big difference with the united states backing out. one thing we see on our screen right now, the u.s. and european countries support for ukraine. you know, the president trump has been very vocal in his opinion about how the support has been. how does that match up to reality? it doesn't, because what the president has said is the united states has spent 350 to $400 billion. okay. this is an independent organization in europe that has gone ahead and monitored everything for three year period ending in december. look what you see here. europe's actually spent more. even if you tweak tweak a little bit, it may be there even $350 billion that just comes out of thin air. and that's part of the problem. you your your reputation depends upon your word. and your word depends upon your honesty. and this is a problem with president trump over and over again, especially for foreign countries on display for the world to see today. larry gerston, thank you very much. we appreciate it. let's move on. the ceo of a bay area tech giant says machines
