the united states cannot have the cake and eat it.79, the into the states severed relations with taiwan. they canceled a treaty between united states and taiwan. they withdrew all u.s. troops stationed in taiwan. if they want to reverse that, in my guest but the consequence will be there will be no more diplomatic relations between china and the united states. and the real legal status between china's mainland and taiwan is the civil war. taiwan ended up with its current situation. it is because of the potsdam declaration. it is because of a civil war in china. the nationalist forces fled the mainland and settled down in taiwan. if the united states keep provoking that, they will provoke the resumption of a civil war and do you think the u.s. wants to send it sons and daughters for a civil war between china's mainland and china's taiwan province? i don't think the united states wants to shed the blood of its soldiers for taiwan. ever since the beginning of the 1960's, china's mainland already possessed enough military capabilities to

has united states government ever asserted its right to protect individual rights in any other state, ever? >> you want to be i clear the right we are asserting is to protect supremacy of federal law. >> so to defend the supremacy of individual rights any other situation ever quick. >> we have wrought suit to be for in the seventies but it did not work its way up to this court united states had a broader theory to sue to vindicate constitutional rights but instead we are arguing. >> any other. >> no. there were three suits and that. >> thank you. >> . >> the plaintiff would be the same plaintiff of part that situation general stone would be representing the state da or executive official without arguments of the merits we are not dealing with todayay but the same basic situation. there is an extension to get to the prior case that we have talked about. that is an important step to analyze. but by contrast what is different in the unusual and we don't know where it goes. so if you could fill in and it may seem repetitive, that you think us has authority to bring a suit like this agains

, including the united states, including all it's 5 i member states your name it japan. acknowledge that this is the corner stone of china's foreign relations with all the countries in the world with all the united nations. now, the united states cannot have the cake, i eat it back in 1979, the united states did the right thing. they sever the relations with taiwan. they cancel the defense treaty between the united states and taiwan. they withdrew all the u. s. troops, facial leading taiwan. now if they want to really reverse that, be my guest, but the consequences will be there will be no more to pro matthew relations between china and the united states, and the real legal status between china's mainland untie one is the our finished a civil war. why taiwan ended up with his current situation. first of all, it's because of the chiral declaration, potsdam declaration. secondly, it's because of the civil war in china, the nationalist of forces, fred, the mainland, and settled down in taiwan. so if the united states keep provoking that they probably will provoke the resum

charles the united states. and we called out, ah, she ging pings china as being a primary focus there. and i think, you know, i'd like to push back a little bit on this concept of the united states lecturing. china. ok if you go to practically in the corner of the world today, whether it's within europe or china's neighbors in east asia, there has been a confluence, all interests, an alignment with international norms, democratic values, the like that's been pushing back on what has been an assertive and even an aggressive chinese foreign policy that is used for instance, economic coersion against countries such as australian, south korea, velaz over the years, let the waning most recently and europe. it's, i somewhat ironic chinese lane about the united states lecturing when chinese diplomacy, quote, unquote, has brought a new york term to our lexicon that a weird overseas i would push back on that a little and with respect to the actual meeting yesterday. and the fact that it was a virtual meeting again, i th

i am hearing deep satisfaction with the united states -- that the united states is back and reengagedi am also hearing deep concern about some of the actions for government has taken. >> china, as it has in the past and from now on, will never accept the u.s.' winning this criticisms. must a to the u.s. drops its frequent hegemonic actions of interfering with chinese internal affairs. >> i want to ask victor about this because we had strong words from the u.s., but also strong words from china. that is unusual. i have heard under president xi, there is assessment of that policy being described as aggressive diplomacy. china was no longer going to take criticism, but essentially take the fight to those who are opposed to it. now we are seeing a change. it is a suggestion that china has become concerned that that policy has overreached the mark and brought it closer to risky confrontation with the u.s. and others, and that perhaps is why we are seeing the styling back of rhetoric? >> -- took place very special circumstances. it was very cold. and then the -- on the chinese side and thei

in 2020 nafta was replaced by the united states texico canada agreement, or usmca. the usmca liberalizes digital trade, strengthens intellectual-property protections and establishes more than 26 separate committees to coordinate implication of the agreement by all those involved. our usmca working group which includes government representatives and other stakeholders is closely tracking the implementation of usmca. we're excited that president biden and prime minister trudeau have launched a roadmap to a renewed u.s.-canada partnership with commitments to work together on urgent challenges from rebuilding our infrastructure to fighting covid. through our unique candidate institute, wilson is closely following the progress of the roadmap and other important matters between our two great countries. we're looking forward to hearing more about these initiatives during today's discussion. with that, prime minister trudeau, welcome. and again, the floor is open to you for some comments, thank you. >> thank you very much, chris. thank you all for being here today.

that's the result of the united states or just this unit kind of mutual still lived into both. both of you threatened by the united states. they have grown increasingly goes together. so now it's, it's kind of finds it. so some isolated when we're facing this are very substantial long and deem a b. again, you know, that we can bring up a new cold war paradigm. but on china's and nominally a communist country is run by a communist party. but it doesn't want to export its ideology, unlike during the 1st cold war. russia, well, it's just a conservative country out there interested in its own self interest here. but how, how, how it is american exceptionalism play in this. because i'm the one hand, you know, you're just said, you know, there's a finally, a reckoning, a recognition. finally, it took a long time that there are other great powers. ok, but the, there they're not this, these 3 great powers are not the same for the u. s is very intend to export ideology rules based order and all that other nonsense here. and that's what for me, makes it dangerous because the, that russia

the country that's creating core tons were for every one time we produce in the united states, the united states has led the world in reducing emissions in the global community has increased tenfold for every time ton that we have reduced and let me say again, the strategies in europe and california, creates them braided we need to follow strategies that work, we can continue to do which are all trying to do now, the technologies and taking actions away from the innovators andva t the end of the day resulting in higher emissions and higher prices is a flawed approach and we have the evidence to prove it. it's impossible for us to continue in this direction. >> yeah five business days to do so and i like to welcome our witnesses and will hear from experts on the challenges and opportunities for internationale climate action as world leaders prepare to gather in glasgow for cop26 global climate summit and first paris france and his senior fellow at the global climate program where she focuses on long-term climatena strategies and nationally determine contributions mobile of leveraging these

it shows a complete lack of respect for the president of the united states and the united states of americaing the president of the united states. that's what this should concern everybody about. the president set patterns of decision making and how they cree act to crisis situations. the president showed what he did with afghanistan, what they did with criteria -- crimea, when he that was the situation room with president obama, look, he set a pattern of indecision or no decision at all and they're going to exploit that and this is one way for them to do it. they're kind of trolling the united states. that should be the biggest concern, not a defense agreement going forward. that happens all the time. what should concern americans is does this president and this administration and the national security advisor, have the will if something happens, especially if something happens with taiwan, are we going to do anything or are we going to say okay, that's going to happen and there's nothing we can do about it. that's my biggest concern. jason: well, it should be a concern. we don't even prot

mayor emmanuel, i'd like to talk about the relationship between the united states and japan. you know, we have a critically important economic relationship with japan. in fact, japan is the number one investor in my home state of tennessee. more than all the other nations combined, in fact. that's been a vital and critical relationship with my home state. but today, there exist as real impediment to that relationship. it has to do with the case of a tennessee citizen, named greg kelly. and it's in our nation's interest to resolve this situation quickly. i'd like to go through the facts. greg kelly of tennessee was arrested in tokyo, japan, november 19th, 2018. greg, a lawyer, was charged by a tokyo prosecutor with conspiring to under report carlos ghosn's compensation as neon director. they plan to present their closing arguments next wednesday, october 27th, 35 months after greg was deceived to leave his home in tennessee and arrested in japan. for it's been 35 months to get to this point where his defense attorneys are able to close their case. for reasons that defy logic,

united states needs to step up our efforts there. there are, just from different things that i have been briefed on in the intelligence committee, nations to feel burned by the way china has -- vaccine diplomacy. it is not like it has been 100% rosy for them and people to appreciate the united states' efforts, but that big differential is something we ought to close the gap on. jonathan: you have been a voice that some have described as the progressive voice on foreign policy. someone who looks at foreign policy in a new way, breaking out bold thinking. obviously there's a lot of thought that has been put into how we have decided to depart from a post 9/11 counterterrorism posture with our foreign policy. a lot of soul-searching is happening after afghanistan as well, that the united states has spent trillions of dollars. it's counterterrorism wars, efforts to nation build in other parts of the world and there is obviously a lot of fatigue in the united states about that. but i think there is also concern that one of the ways the uni

the united states does not lightly invoking authority like this to sue a state. the reason we have done here is because s.b.-8 is so unprecedented, extraordinary, an extraordinarily dangerous for constitutional structure. if texas is correct that it can nullify this court's precedents and successfully evade the mechanisms that this court recognize and ex parte young and congress recognizes in section 1983 the no constitutional right is safe and we think that in this extraordinary circumstance the united states has a sovereign interest in intervening to protect the supremacy of federal law. >> what if our president on something a different eddie glaude altogether was just uncertain? there was an open question about something and the state wanted to cabin or draw a line with respect to the the presiden? with the u.s. have the authority there? is a something that what you think is the clarity of the violation here that triggers your authority? >> if the state structured that hypothetical law in this same way then we would have the same concern that the state is effe

the focus of this panel is on how the united states should be confronting information operations as asubset of gray zone aggressions from foreign adversaries. most prominently including russia and china. in your book, the defenders dilemma, you explain which state actors started undertaking gray zone actions in recent years. why is this the case? and how did covid-19 impact gray zone activity? ms. braw: it's the case because it's an attractive choice. we here in the west, where our vulnerability is in the hot seat, so we communicate to other countries that they should essentially -- they should exploit our weaknesses. that is inevitable, because we are free and open societies and we are not going to tell our citizens what to say. nevertheless, as a result of the current complete lack of involvement by the population in national security, i think most people don't even realize what they say or do and how they react could have an influence on the country's well-being. people will happily share information because it is fun or entertaining, or juicy. whatever the reason may be. the reaso

united states, i don't know what that means, i love human beings, individuals but i say i love certain foods or something but to love and nation states, i don't understand patriotism i think it's a recent thing in world history and it is a poison that creates war in madness and the division that we have right now in this society. who is the greatest patriot. i was really criticizing because i don't think he really meant that. i mean i don't know i can't read his mind but everything else it is hard to think that love is the first thing that would come to mind and his sentiment about the united states from his experience, i have nowhere near any kind of experience like that, i think at least as historians we have to tell the truth and i think we should be objective that we should not write the parler history and is building up in the united states insane you have to balance it with something good historians need to tell the truth about u.s. history they define when they have no limitation or apologies, when they get to their new country, i don't think that's true of other national histor

as well.— discrepancies in the united states as well. out that- _ states as well. and you do talk about that. but _ states as well. and you do talk about that. but let's _ states as well. and you do talk about that. but let's get - states as well. and you do talk about that. but let's get to - about that. but let's get to that later, the stock by your career in the trump white house. you said to me that there are some pretty fundamental problems with donald trump attitude even when you took the job in 2017. but things unfolded both of this reaction to allegations that russia had intervened massively or try to in the 2016 election, but also his reaction to certain events that occurred like, the poisoning of the russian spy. you can see where donald trump really seemed to try to avoid the reality of what vladimir pruden's russia was and you were there and you are trying to persuade him otherwise and failing and it's a question i put the public officials. how often did you contemplate getting out of their? resigning? i contemplate getting ou

outcome and the russian security services thought this was revenge for what they perceived the united statesne and particularly hillary clinton when she was secretary of state against putin's return to the russian presidency in 2011 when there were mass demonstrations and opposition to his presidency. and i was well aware of all of that along with many other people and the thought was that perhaps we could do something to persuade trump that action needed to be taken. but it's a bit odd, isn't it? essentially what we're talking about is you making a decision to take a job with a boss who you felt to be fundamentally wrong—headed and possibly dangerous. look, when something happens like this, i thought about at the time it's a bit like your house is on fire and you have to stand up and do something. i've been working on russia for decades. i started studying russia in 1984. the whole premise of the russian intervention was an old one, they did this during the cold war. it was propaganda, a pretty sophisticated influence operation and i felt that if i did not stand up, who else was going to tr

in fact, air traffic control in the united states. they're already working by mandate 6 days in a row because of shortages. and now you have estimated 15 percent of air traffic control in the united states. they're gonna walk off the job at the end of the month because they're not going to take this vaccine. the companies and the government isn't saying what the accommodation will be for you if you choose to continue not to get vaccinated. and so a lot of people fear and i think rightly so, they could end up on the street. the usa, vh sector's already under pressure. just last weekend, american airlines, since the country's biggest carrier cancelled more than 2000 flights. and in the space of just 4 days, 10 percent of flights was scrubbed. they blame the setbacks on staff shortages and adverse weather. meanwhile, more than 40 republican sentences said that they were trying to nullify president buttons, vaccine mandate plans. they describe the measures as the single biggest disruption of the business community. because vaccination rat

eventually, i'd have the opportunity to represent my hometown in congress of the united states. i did that for 12 years. i had the privilege of serving as a governor for the great state of indiana. as you can imagine, how deeply humbling it was for me to -- from january 2017 to raise my right hand to serve as the 48 president of the united states -- i want i want to thank everybody in iowa for giving me that honor. greatest honor of my life. on a personal level, i need to tell you that -- it is actually spelled d a d. i am the proud father of three people in your generation. my son is a united states marine, currently deployed serving the united states of america in uniform. my daughter charlotte actually writes for the daily wire, and as a fairly well-known commentator both online and on television. my daughter, audrey, our youngest graduated from yale law school and is now living in washington d.c. with his wonderful husband. all my kids are off of the payroll, married and most importantly our son and incredible daughter-in-law gave us our very first grandchild. little avery is

i don't love the united states, i don't know what that means. i love human beings, individuals i know and i can say i love certain foods or something but to love a nation, state, i don't understand patriotism. i think it is a recent thing in world history and a poison that creates wars and madness the division we have right now so who's the greatest patriot so i was criticizing baldwin because i don't think he really meant that. i don't know, i can't read his mind but everything else he wrote hard to think that love is the first thing that would come to mind in his sentiments about the united states from his experience. i have nowhere near any experience like that but as historians, we have to tell the truth and i think we should subjective, we should not write the parler history, building up united states, balancing it with something good, historians need to tell the truth about u.s. history. they do find when they study other countries, they have no limitations or apologies but when they get to their own country -- and i don't think it's true o

this is what we get an up what passes for a free press in the united states. and you know, that is key and the other key we've talking a little bit about china and taiwan. the other key is when the u. s. continuously runs warships through the south china sea, key word being china. you know, the u. s. is still fighting world war 2, a world war one. this idea of territorial warfare is gone. nobody has it. china isn't taking over places. russia isn't taking over places. they're actually doing business overseas, especially the chinese in africa and elsewhere in latin america and elsewhere. the was still obsessed with this idea of taking territory. it's so antiquated. nobody does it any war any more. and again, you have to look back to why and it's what we call the deep status, what we call washington. i mean as much as i'd hate and who your war will be nice to see. washington made irrelevant again and revert to the swamp from whence it came. a man on that, peter, you mentioned august 1914 and a perfect historical parallel. but i think as we look at ukraine right n

would have to defend this territory against the united states. as they say the basic listen to this as things are complicated and if you are the leader of spain or the leader france you have to figure out how what this is all going. >> you mentioned canada. canada was in an interesting situation in this and i think the american revolution and the french and indian war before it although i should point out it wasn't the french against the indians. you have native americans on both sides but i had occasion to visit an exhibit in washington d.c. the game the war of 1812 from a canadian perspective. that's a little ahead of the game in this book but certainly the factors that the canadians had a very different respective and in canada it occupied a kind of ground that many of the american colonists would have liked to make apart of the newly independent colonies and from the book it makes it quite clear that americans even had a hard time understanding american patriots and had a hard time understanding why canadians would want to remain part of the

fashion and to that end, we know that one of the message, those that will be sent is that the united states and, and others are discouraging, any provocations on the part of iran. they believe that this is counter productive to the stated goal, which is to see, not only iran returned to the 2015 agreement to limit its program nuclear program, but also the united states in terms of making sure that both countries are compliant under that agreement. and to that end, we should also say that the deputy secretary of state, wendy sherman, has also said that one of the additional messages will be that the time for negotiation is not unlimited. take a listen. the hope that iran comes in good faith to those negotiations because i think we could make very rapid progress. if indeed they don't, since their program has continued to move forward, of the window will close on whether the j c. p away is the best vehicle and whether we have to look at what people call generally the plan b, how as we can ensure that iran does not get a nuclear weapon as well as address all the other areas of concern there. no

depress the wages of high school dropouts in the united states and if they do does it last foror two or longer? that's really not that important thinking about the day picture of the impact our institutions the other things that are o popular debate and television and the news is not that controversial there are reasons for not supporting are not about jobs or wages of high school dropouts. host: speaking of the news when you see what's going on on the us-mexico border , people coming in and then be sent out and the wall built, what is your reaction? >> my reaction is we would have as much of an illegal immigration problem if we had an easier path to legality to legal immigration the vast majority of the worlds population is impossible to immigrate legally to the united states when they say legally immigrated have a point i would like to migrate legally you can't do without a massive weight you may not even live to see if you come from was countries around the world when they could come here without weight there was no quantitative restrictions so if you have checkpoints and a

forget about those still outside the united states. encourage the department to also wave the fees for those afghans who are applying for humanitarian patrol from outside the u.s. and to work with the state department to facilitate their travel outside of afghanistan so that their applications can be processed. i continue to hear from californians about how helpful a fee waver will be and i sent a letter, along with 26 of my colleagues, including many of this committee, making this exact request. which i would like to enter into the record. i urge the department to continue support to the afghan allies inside and outside the u.s. now too, my question. first, which is a follow up to something we've heard a lot from my republican colleagues today and that's about the increasing number of migrant encounters. now, if i understand correctly, this is the third consecutive month of border encounters decreasing. would you like to comment on this or shed some light or clarity on the more recent statistics and trends? >> thank you, senator. we ha

. >> host: several highly publicized school mass shootings in the united states. what would you suggest to prevent those? >> this is something that has concerned me for 420 years and a major focus of my research. the research center that i'm president of reported a while ago that with all the school shootings, every type of school shooting all the way up to mask public shootings from 2000 through 2003 teen and what we found was that in the states, in the schools that allow teachers and staff to be able to go and carry guns there hasn't been one attack at any level in which anybody has been wounded or killed in any of those schools. the attacks for which they occur keep on occurring in places which teachers and staff aren't allowed to carry. you may have one police officer guarding the school but it's an almost impossible job. if you have one person he is the only that's known to have a gun and he is in uniform who do you think they go after first because they know if they can take out that one officer they are going to have free reign to go after the people. the a

in the united states trucks sell more quickly than cars do. idea is how you change a society without allowing some of the pain to be passed along? this seems to be a conundrum for this administration that is not yet acknowledging we have not reached a point where we can transition in a smooth way. lisa: we started off -- matt: we started off the show talking about inflation. we see food inflation as well. these are the things people need to live, even if they are not in the core cpi or pce as the fed prefers. as long as this inflation continues at a higher rate than wage growth, it will be a problem for the administration. lisa: and we will get ppi tomorrow as well as consumer price index. consumer inflation on wednesday. i'm curious to see what the bond market reaction is. you are seeing a little bit of a giveback from the gains we saw last week. yields up, not very much. the 10 year up to 1.47%. the s&p grinding out perhaps another all-time high. tonight we will talk to technology with lisa sue. this is bloomberg. ♪ moving is a handful. no k

what exactly the united states is doing here in provoking china. and at the same time, they're trying to provoke russia. so, you know, the, there are times when they thinking, well, what we need to do is to do a kissinger and reverse. we need to align ourselves with russia and china get separate the 2 great powers. and then they go back to no, no, no, we prefer to confront russia and china together. let's have our global democracy summit, which we can feel good about ourselves, that we are now dead set against the democratic enemies. it's a policy that is guaranteed to create a, you know, doubt in the mind of the chinese leaders, and therefore it is extremely dangerous. and that goes along with milly's famous or infamous, a telephone call to the chinese leaders during like the days of the trump administration . telling them, well, don't worry, we're not about to attack you, but if we do attack you, i promise i'll give you a phone call ahead of time. so the chinese leaders really don't know what washington is doing, and i think that's why they, ther

ah, i graduated president of the united states of america. i heard my words and thought i should be put to death. part of me said i'm doing something right. he put it on the we're using you just want to close the right eyes with history or if they want to kill you and you're doing the job, you're doing a work of liberation. so we wait a bullets, we'll learn how to fight. we learn how to shoot, we will have weapons to defend ourselves. but this is just what it is. you should about there and put your life on the life of black people. you are looking america in, i'm saying. i'm ready to die. race continues to be the single most powerful and enduring dividing force in american politics. we all know this is the original sim of american democracy is slavery. ah, it was incredible that the america at its beginning, was able to say all men are created equal while having a significant enslaved population. when america started, only white men with property could vote. and america has been struggling since that time, with the ideals that are written dow

so he feels that the united states is in a strong position. and it's no coincidence that on the heels of siding that legislation, he's had this virtual summoner having this virtual summit with chinese president. she's been paying because he really wants to see this momentum moving forward. as he tries to lift the united states out of the pandemic related sort of depression that it has been in for so many months. many thanks for that. kimberly hawk at that at the white house we can speak now as a katrina you who's in beijing. katrina, what does using ping one from this meeting? i think she's jumping really does want to see some positive result from this. we heard state media television networks. the dtn just tweet saying that the 1st half of the summit has been concluded. they also highlighted some of his key quotes, saying that there should be an increase in communications and cooperation that both countries need to shoulder, their international responsibilities and work together to tack of global challenges . such as the pandemic, as well as

this is the last land border dispute between canada and the united states. it could be magnified to the part where there could be costs that would be significant to quote countries. quarter dispute don't go away, it's assessed or something's going to happen. i saw a message from an unknown account because it had a cell phone with my passport as its profile page. i saw pictures of my documents. it will say also send that credit contract. if i had just 3 days, you know, comply with their demands. if i didn't send money and they sent out an online, hey, can i was supposed to be very dangerous man. ah, welcome back, the cross walk where all things are considered. i'm peter lavelle to mind you were discussing rising tensions. ah, okay, let's go back to peter in washington. i mean, considering the by did ministration bends over backwards to do the very opposite of donald trump on almost everything except for foreign policy. you teased it in the end of the 1st block there. tell us what you think. go ahead. peter. foreign policy in the united states has been frustra
