then the secular governments that may not have been the best in terms of the way we in the united states look at it, did allow for a certain amount of pluralcy. but now what we've got is the extremists who are so far to the right of maybe where assad and others, that they are now killing the christian. what should the world be doing to make this right? >> we have to bring peace to syria. >> how? >> peace to iraq. >> how? >> it's difficult now because the cat is out of the bag. we allow, where there never existed, these groups in iraq and syria, we've allowed them to come in and it's hard to uproot them by dropping a few bombs. now only allowed it, but our friends have supported it. we have this mess where nuns have been kidnapped. one of our archbishops has been kidnapped, two archbishops, one of ours. until now we've heard nothing of them. one who is the brother of our new patriarch. priests have had their eyes gouged out. >> so we were living peacefully before our intervention? >> yes, the element is from the outside. >> in 2001 the world panicked when the buddhists were destroyed by the ta

> christopher swift whether you want to get money or not, you can make the president of the united states lookimpotent if you pull off one of these things and hold somebody for a long time and america just can't get bob jones out. >> that's a real risk. and it's one of the risks that the president and the national security council and his advisers from the special forces and other organizations within the national security apparatus consider. but look at the understand of the day, that's really, if you can't handle the big chair you shouldn't be in the big chair. every government has a dud dutyo protect it's nationals whenever they might be to the extent the local government are willing to collaborate with the u.s. government, british government, whoever it might beers that's what they have to do. that duty to protect your nationals is so fundamental in international law it's one of the very few exceptions that allows you to go in and violate the sovereignty of a foreign country on a very limited basis in order to get your own people out if the foreign government is either not collaborating wi

the president of the united states should look the american people in the eye day after day and tell the truth. the congress has a number of things it can do. the simplest thing to me is for congress to fund the government of the united states, explicitly bar the president from borrowing money belonging to the u.s. treasury to promote his amnesty scheme. they're already renting a building, hiring 1,000 workers to process this, spending $100 million-plus on that alone. we can -- also i think that's the simplest way to deal with it. >> let's talk about the point you were making today in washington with the sheriffs. apparently some local law enforcement has spoken up about the president's action. and what are they saying? >> they are saying this is a lawless action. they fully and universally oppose this. the national sheriffs association, sheriffs from all over the country were there at the office to explicitly condemn the amnesty and entire system management of immigration that's gone on for these number of years. it was a very important thing. they know what's going on on the ground

look at the sweep of the last six months, this is a game changer and a net positive for the united statesook at it. all of our enemies are suffering because of this. this is a good thing. david: i think it was the elections. i'll though that out, there the elections of 2014 were historically significant. they showed such a tremendous point of view on the part of the electorate. people said we're asleep, rich. don't you think that was one of the most important things? >> yeah, if you're looking for analogy. you look for 1994. remember, we had the recession of 1990 and as late as 1994, the year the republicans swept the house, people didn't believe in the recovery. if you want use that as your historical example. we've got good years ahead. >> david, to alan's point and the lack of optimism. it was a buzz kill. they won, but are they going to do anything? i don't think they have the belief they can change regulations and taxes for small businesses, they are tapped out. david: thank you very much all of you, terrific panel. the hacking of "the interview" exposed e-mails that showed the under

is it possible that authorities in the united states, looking at some of these responses from north koreaver the past few days has determined that it is bluster, that there is no safety reason why this film can't be shown? >> well, remember, you have to take north korea with a grain of salt. they are the spoiled child of the east. they will scream, they will pout, they will throw their diapers. the question is how serious is the target meaning can north korea actually launch another cyberattack. because that's the new realm. they are sophisticated enough that they can plan the next step? that's a big concern. after the sony hack you simply cannot underestimate north korea. that is what the united states is learning, certainly, south korea is dealing with that as well. that's really a very difficult dance that they have -- that they have to move, walk, the word is escaping me. >> lots of metaphors to choose from, spoiled child, difficult dance, choreography, a ballet. they hope to recoup the money, clearly, somebody's going to lose some money on this one. will sony save face, that's the qu

and whether or not the united states or any particular president, like andrew jackson, has been horrible to us, we look at it with a long view and say, the united states did not keep its word here or here, but it's beginning to now. and in some cases we believe that. in some cases we do not. depending on who you are or what your family experience is, what your nation's experience is. so, that's how we view this keeping of word that one of the people we interviewed for this treaty exhibit, i don't want to forget him -- maurice john who was on the board of nmai. a seneca man who used to be a tribal leader there. he said, i do not think the treaties have been broken. i think they have been stretched and stretched and stretched to the breaking point. but i think they are still good treaties. so some people have a view of that. the elastic nature of a person and a country keeping its word. and what we're part of here is the maturation of america. we are giving back to america part of its american history. and this just isn't our history. the treaties are not just ours. the treaties are the united states' an

united states, even when the united states could not live up to that idea. we have believed in the idea of the united states before it was a country. when those who founded the united states look for governing structure to support the truth that they thought was self evident, they looked to the , the fivenfederacy great nations. without the example of those nations living together in ,armony, even when we disagree the promise of america might not have come together. come back here year after year. sometimes for me it is week after week. sometimes with the pundits and the evidence saying that the congress won't do anything, we still believe in the constitution that says the treaties are the supreme law of the land. sometimes i think that indians believe in our constitution more than anyone else. continuing to believe what the constitution says is true investing to show the words of the treaties that matter, by calling this a great nation giving its word, we refute the skeptics. we answer the question that i is thet the beginning, united states great nation? while our history in this nation might be brutally painful, when the wrongs done to our people are real, history is not th

. >> when you have, again, people who you know want to harm the united states, looking forward to getting ahold of this information. inflaming it to insight violence against westerners u.s. embassies and others that to me says we ought to be more cautious than that. >> so here's a look at what else you need to know about the interrogation report. the senate intelligence committee approved the study in 2009. it was completed in december of 2012. now that same month the committee voted to declassify a nearly 500 page executive summary and release it. that report cost nearly $40 million to produce. the history of the intrairgs program thinterrogationprogram,e and feivesse effectiveness to cs and the media. >> j.j. green good to see you. how is this going to roll out? we are in essence going to get three sides to the story right? the senate majorities report, the senate minority report and then the cia's version of this correct? >> yeah. so what you're going to have is what the committee has been working on for past five years, on the $40 million and their version basically they're going to p

was an even swap for humanitarian aid workers that we were for some reason holding in the united states. >> look, it sounds like this was a pretext for doing what the president wanted to do all along in terms of changing the broader policy toward cuba. again, it's great to have mr. gross back on american soil, but it sounds like he was a human pawn for doing what the president wanted to do anyway. there is a case to be made, gretchen, for the listing of the cuban trade embargo, but this is not it. what did we get in exchange, gretchen? we got nothing. we got no concessions from this regime at all. >> correct. the president said the new policy will make it easier for americans to travel to cuba. he doesn't talk about the cubans who are still there under a dictator. >> well, look, there have been a lot of people on both sides of the aisle arguing for many years that this trade embargo has outlived its usefulness, including my old boss in the early 1990s, former president nixon, who wrote in one of his books at the time we should consider lifting the embargo. the difference between those arguments

but the rest of the time when the world seems to be falling apart and the united states looks pretty by comparison you need a stock that gives you domestic security. something that's entirely confined within the borders of ow country because at those moments being exposed to the rest of the world can be downright dangerous. what do i mean by the concept of domestic security? anything that's usa all the way. you can earn it for a company like a tooernt or verizon, a utility like con edd or duke. you can pick a regional or national restaurant chain like popeye's louisiana kitchen. a little overseas exposure not much. or dollar store, dollar general dollar tree. how about retailers? macy's isn't overseas. home depot hasn't pulled back. it's here. or a real estate investment trust. factory outlet. iyr. the real estate investment just etf to get exposure to the whole group p. the point is in times of international turmoil this slot in your portfolio should be filled with something that's all domestic and in times of domestic turmoil when the rest of the world's in much better shape which

but at the end of the year, the united states looks in a better position than it did a year ago.about linking to russia, all the things we knew -- forget about 40 years ago -- five years ago -- are falling apart. what is your view next year of russia with all these linkages? finally, the u.s. found a partner that wanted to play also. they cuba deal is the kind of thing the obama administration has been tried to do with his former enemies across the board. homerun but itt is a solid single or a double. >> all the baseball metaphors. >> they tried to play with russia. there was going to be a reset pin but no one expected russia to do a stupid thing. we forget it is not a normal country. not a normal country, but it should have been smart enough to recognize that, in this day and age, invading another country is not going to exley get you anything. it is going to get you a small little thing that you invaded but you will be punished for it. not today, not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life. x within your economic world, we have weak economic growth and political things

looking at the market in the united states, it is not cheap. ations we see right now, not a friend. but they don't look, you know, exorbitant either. we're advising people take a global perspective. earnings in the united states and the economic performance will continue relatively to do well so we think that this could be a good market in the united states going into 2015. supported by earnings and also you're talking earlier about the feed through effects of energy prices dropping like this. this is going to squash anything that tax cuts could have done in washington, d.c. this is global tax cut. it's going to be in europe, japan and the united states. so as we go next year, it could be very stimulative. >> what will the fed talk about? ben willis, could this spoil your rally next week if the fed is a little more bullish on the economy and raising rater sooner rather than late? >> we have seen pricing in the change of the fed for the continuing -- for the unperiod -- >> considerable time. >> thank you. >> there you go. >> taking those words ou

if you look at what's happened to hacks in the united states, those same attacks could be launched againstntries and other organizations. so when you look at the possibility of a hacker collective that has attacked the united states, we can return the same kind of attacks back toward them to eliminate their capabilities of fighting a cyberwar. >> you know, i go back to this is the united states of america. and as such we are accustomed to having the strongest military might with modern weaponry. would the u.s. be wrong to assume it's better at this game than north korea is? >> in this case i think that we are better than north korea's capabilities. there's a lot of different organizations and state sponsored hacker groups out there and the problem is this isn't like a conventional war where it takes a long time to train troops. i mean, you're looking at a landscape where you could have 14 year olds who can launch attacks as well as anyone else. i mean, it's not the same kind of warfare we're looking at now. >> totally different landscape. and hacking isn't new. we know the doj accused chin

>> look, that's a great question. the united states relies on multiple foreign agencies for guidance on this, our program which we assured them would remain secret they're much less likely to cooperate with us in the future. it's a big problem. >> raja what would you like to see if this report gets released, what action do you think needs to be taken or does no action need to be stain other than making this public? >> well, you know i think this administration ought to work with the congress to make sure we never resort to these policies again. but just to, gaik engag engage y of torture and abuse. in a post9/11 world, nothing should remain secret forever. american people deserve to know what was done in their name. we should be able to cooperate within the rule of law. this has caused problems for us. when they see things like guantanamo, it does bolster their ranks. we need to look at the hard facts and what was done after 9/11, and we need to learn as a country and as a policy making apparatus and move forward. >> we'll see what thi

polio research, polio vaccines, polio no longer found in the united states. look at these major illnesses. what does it mean? what does it mean when we spend money? on cancer research. let's take a look here. deaths from major diseases, changes in the number of deaths from 2000 to 2012. breast cancer down 8%. what happens when you spend $5.5 billion a year on cancer research? cancer deaths fall. success. on heart disease, on heart disease, cardiovascular illnesses, about $2 billion a year and see heart disease being dropped by 16%. deaths by heart disease dropping by 16%. stroke, 28%. what is the use of research? you want to live, it's a pretty good thing to spend money on, particularly if you are thinking about getting cancer or any of the cardiovascular illnesses, heart disease, stroke, heart attacks and the like. hiv-aids, you remember that number? where was it here? oh, yes. hiv-aids, nearly $3 billion spent on hiv-aids and deaths from hiv-aids down 42% in the united states. so what does it mean when you spend money on research? it means really good things for

look like modern for -- fortresses. san francisco likes to be a walking city. people like to walk in it because it's different from most of the other cities in the united states which all look the same. san francisco is charming and it variety of structures makes san francisco interesting. with the addition of these two ultra modern structures, this street will lose it's charm. in conklu klux -- conclusion i want to say that proposition m says that we are to maintain our residential neighborhoods beautiful. 22 ord court can be built slightly smaller and behind 22 and 24 ord court. city clerk: thank you, ma'am. your time is up. >> my name is chris wilson, i live a 236 state street. across from the development. i apologize for any repetition. i will try to be as quick as i can. my fellow neighbors and i are concerned about the impact of granting a variance for these two single family homes on the rear yard. we believe the variance would be a press cedent and catalyst for the area. i want to share a development in the neighborhood happening right now. this is no the the property in question. it's down the street. this yellow outline shows a load of trees that were rem

united states. so the judge looks at the president's immigration order to try to figure out whether he can stay in the united states or not. seems pretty simple? >> well, it is not the same because president obama's immigration order dealt with illegal immigrants who were living in the united states continuously prior to 2010, who had children who are either u.s. residents or permanent residents. this doesn't apply here. this young man was deported, heather, in 2005. then he tried to reenter the united states and then he did and got in trouble. heather: got dui. >> so it does not -- heather: one thing we have not mentioned, brian, this is it, apparently had a child once he came back to the united states and so now he is trying to claim that he wants to stay here in the united states because he has a kid. what do you think of that? >> well, i mean obviously you have to verify, the first issue you have to verify is whether he has lived in the united states continuously prior to 2010. he doesn't meet that criteria. let's assume he does though. if he does have a child, there is a permanent resident of the

anyone who travels around the what airportss at outside the united states look like, roads, trains, portsgnize that makes no sense for us to have a first-class economy but a second-class infrastructure. that would help to not only accelerate the growth right now, it would also lay the foundation for growth in the future. tax reform, an area that i know is of great interest to the business roundtable. i have consistently said that for us to have a system in which of the twopaper one or three highest tax rates in the world when it comes to corporate taxation, but in practice there are so many loopholes that you get huge variations between what companies pay, it doesn't make sense and we should be able to smooth that system out, streamlined it in such a way that allows us to lower rates, close loopholes, and make for a much more efficient system, where folks are not wasting a lot of time trying to hire accountants and lawyers to get out of paying taxes, but have some certainty and raise much -- just as much money on a simpler system. that is something that i think we should be doing. trade.

bold quick action and i think many people around the country and around the world are looking to the united statesooking to what's happening here in new york and oakland to make sure that we push this fight even further. >> i would also say that the generation that's saying that things have changed yes things have changed for their generation but there's a whole new generation that's suffering at the hands of law enforcement. there's a whole new generation of black people. there's 2.3 million people in prison. 1 million of them are black. a whole new generation of issues that plague black america and i think the real question is ask the people on the ground. do you think things have changed and for us, things haven't necessarily changed. if you go into a poor black ghettos, folks are hungry still. the unemployment rate for black folks is high. that's an issue. that's a huge issue and i think the question for president obama is are you going to look at this generation's issues and really deal with them. >> we're talking specifically about african-americans but there are two different interviews tha

i'm more worried as a market guy looking at the economics of energy and what it's done to the united states extraction of energy. has there been any talk as to the revenues or even within 200 nautical miles? it says in that quote they could adjust that. let's say you're an offshore driller with a five-year lease which is standard. if that changes, is there back compensation that goes to cuba? where does the energy go? is there any shared revenues? i'm thinking more from a u.s. balance sheet and money perspective. >> you're describing what so many, and i know this personalls personally growing up in miami. so many folks that lost businesses when suddenly relationships changed with cuba at a moment's notice. so i think you are getting at sort of the problem and how all this is going to get negotiated. but honestly rick, you are farther ahead on this than the u.s. government is. >> i gotcha. and that i guess makes me sad to leave this. thank you again. and kayla back to you. >> thanks to you both. when we come back, l.l. bean is making lumber jack chic popular. its famous duck boots are such a

anybody who travels around the world and looks at what airports outside the united states now look likeds and trains and ports and airports now look like, recognize that it makes no sense for us to have a first class economy but second class infrastructure. and that would not only help accelerate growth right now, it would also lay foundation for growth in the future. tax reform, an area which i know is of great titrate to the business round table. i have consistently said that for us to have a system in which we have on paper one of the two or three highest tax rates in the world when it comes to corporate taxation but in practice there are so many loopholes that you get huge variations between what companies pay doesn't make sense. and we should be able to smooth the system out, streamline it in such a way that allows us to lower rates, close loopholes and make for a much more efficient system where folks aren't wasting a lot of time trying to hire accountants and lawyers trying to get out of paying taxes but have some certainty and we're able to raise just as much money on a much sim

russia is increasingly isolated on the world stage, united states is looking at further sanctions. think putin is in a very tough point. we have not actually changed the status quo in ukraine. russia has taken over another part of another country and we have accepted that. we are actively in a terrible military situation in eastern ukraine. i think you're right to be wear before declaring anything like that a definite victory for president obama. the same holds true in the middle east. you have to look at what is going on in syria and iraq and say like, we're in early innings here and it is very hard for a president to both act decisively as he did today, but also, there's very little control he has on the world stage. >> yeah. >> i think that is what makes today's event so striking because this was something within his ability to do, he wanted to do it for a long time, it came as a total surprise and is a traumatic decision that obama made. >> yeah, sam, i guess i take issue, not in any angry way. >> oh, good, whew. >> i wonder if you think if there's a republican in office in 201

demographic is basically the walmart customer in the united states. we look very much like that set of statistics in every way. we have a mid-lower income, lower income shoppers, and everybody is value conscious, which includes wealthy people who shop at walmart for some things. >> does it change your products? does your offering change because of the profile of the shopper? for example, higher-priced items. >> think about the ability online to sell a broader assortment. in the beginning, when the internet started taking hold, it was the above average income consumer but that has passed. >> where is walmart going? for example, i am told you are getting involved in selling gasoline. you cannot sell gasoline online. you cannot ship gasoline to someone. they have to come to the store to pick it up. what is the market for that? >> we operate fuel stations at some of our stores and we are able to sell customers value. we love to let people know that we are the low-price leader. we try to do that with our soft drink machines on the front of the store as well. fuel,

the united states is constantly looking for means to enhance the effectiveness of our actions and i'm confident that each of the coalition members represented here is going to do the same. this matters because the rise of dash was rapid, but it in fact has left those terrorists very exposed. what was relatively easy for them last summer has become more difficult. dash casualties are going up by the day. muslim leaders across the globe are speaking out against the killers who have sought to hijack a whole faith, and dash's repellent nature is becoming more evident with every ugly execution and every former recruit's admission of being duped into believing dash is something that it most clearly is not. the leaders of dash recently asked their followers to unleash volcanic eruptions of hate in every country. our own rallying cry is not so dramatic. but it is far more responsive to the needs of people everywhere. and especially in the middle east. where suffering and violence have gone on for far too along. our coalition do not summon hate. but rather, the courage to build a future that i

united states? i think normalization with cuba is in our best interest. we lookish to the rest of the world, the most powerful nation on earth acting as though somehow we're afraid to allow u.s. citizens to go to cuba. they're not going to change overnight. but they certainly aren't going to change if we continue our embargo. >> senator flake, you're a republican. we heard marco rubio, he hates this decision by the president. where do you stand in terms of trying to normalize u.s./cuban relations? >> well, i've been in congress and the house and the senate for 14 years now. all 14 of those years, i pushed to lift the travel ban and to normalize relations. i think our policy has done more to keep the castros in power than anything. so i think it's high time for a change. 50 years is long enough that we ought to do this and do whatever we can so that ordinary cubans can have more control of their destiny. this does that by allowing americans to travel and more commerce, more contact. this is a good thing. >> congressman van hollen, tell us what it was like. you fle

one reality here which you know well as the intelligence community and the united states is looking over their shoulder and it's quite likely they'll blow the whistle on some sort of deal that doesn't give them the sort of verification that they want. >> i don't know. >> we basically caught iran cheating on the interim deal. rather than say, look, we're done. you've proven you're not an effective partner, we can't trust you, the verification measures we have may have worked in this instance. we can't trust them eventually. and the administration doesn't say that, they say we'll give you more time because we're going to get to a deal. >> i just wanted to bring in how this could affect russia. the russian ruble had a low against the dollar recently. inflation is accelerating. these are body blows to the putin regime. it willing interesting -- >> but the question is does that make him less aggressive on the world stage or does he, and some say that's what he did in 2014, hold up the shiny object of some new adventure to try to rally the russian people around him. >> i think potentially it m
