. $230.00 times this we came out to elite a us navy presentation. and i spoke to somebody in a position to know in washington st. coming to advertise this must be an exaggeration. and he said no more like 500. yeah. so that was a huge difference in terms of ship building capacity or how can the us defend taiwan? how can us defend alcholay, so from a chinese invasion, if in 5 years china has 234 times as many ships can completely dominate the seas. it won't be able to, so this is a massive priority for the americans right now. and they are going to need one expert was telling me they're going to need depend they can, they need to test career, they're going to need the allies, the major to support them with that. so that's gonna be an interesting task for donald trump. can he go from these his previous america, 1st to america, plus friends in order to deal with the challenge of china in asia. but those are the kinds of things really bottom line kind of like have we gotten of stuff challenges the us is gonna have to deal with it to face out to, to deal

three times and you could do it three times and you could do it three times and you could even use the navycause yemen is a big country. it is almost two and a half times the size of britain, it has 38 million people, and just bombing sporadically here and there may not have consequences, but it may not yield anything useful or productive. this needs to be an international effort and when i say international i don'tjust mean the us. take china for example, 60% of china's exports to europe go through the suez canal. it is a vested chinese interest, as it is a vested saudi interest that the houthis be dealt with in a broad international way. be dealt with in a broad internationalway. it be dealt with in a broad international way. it could be diplomatic it could be military. i'm not making that decision right now, but going at it alone from israel's point of view may not have dire consequences, but equally so will not produce any good results. ~ ., ., , will not produce any good results. ~ ., , ., results. what impact has israel actina results. what impact has israel acting alone — results. wh

so, three of us went navy in one of us went army. i chose the navy. lots of navy sort of background in the family that made the most sense to me the clinic at the naval academy and we drew an arrow on it. every day of our coffee before we would teach, we would spin the dial and laugh at what idiots we were. twenty-six, 27 years old and we did not know what we wanted to do. one day, you know, after a couple weeks of doing this, jamie came into my office and he said i'm done playing the game. let's do it for real. we shook hands, spun the dial. it is not a great career development tool, i would not recommend it for youngsters, but it really was just luck of the draw. turns out, we both got picked up ford and really enjoy it. >> i was not expecting that answer. i read your 13 rules to live by. one of them was be yourself, the press can spot a phony. you are not actually designing these policies, you are always speaking for someone else. >> it is not about that. my wife bought me a sign that i keep on my door. i have now for a decade. it says i do not nec

hit and miss all storage facility and command center approached by the group. us central command, such as air force and navy assets where used. serious government is taking shape with the appointments are 2 major ministerial roles of customer has been named as defense minister. so i'm just funny as being chosen as foreign minister. now that no one is in germany who pay tribute to the victims of a call remy attack, which killed $5.00 people in the central city of like the back on friday a 9 year old child was among victim softer man. drive his car into the crowd to the christmas market. around 200 people were injured. a prosecutor say the suspect is a 50 year old. saudi doctor who was lifting germany since 2006, an investigation on suspicion of murder and attempted by the it's under way to many k as more now from mike. but this is the moment police arrested the suspect. a saturday doctor has been in this country for 18 years, helping to treat criminal drug addicts in prison. but it also use an online profile to criticize islam and praise right wing extremists cautions. this is the route the call he was drivi

the us navy is honoring him with a distinguished public service award. the navy says films like top gun and its sequel, maverick, significantly boosted its recruitment of fighter pilots. cruise is a licensed pilot and says that it's a true honor to represent service members. finally, we leave you this hour with a santa who ditched his sleigh for a jet ski to deliver presents to kids in rio de janeiro. the nonprofit heroes of love joined forces with the fire department to hand out gifts to children in the community thanks for joining me here on cnn newsroom. i'm max foster in london this morning, cnn this morning. up next, after a break you only come across an artist like luther vandross once in a lifetime. >> luther. never too much new year's day at eight on cnn. >> like a relentless weed. >> moderate to severe ulcerative colitis symptoms can keep coming back. >> start to break away from uc with tremfya with rapid relief at four weeks tremfya blocks a key source of inflammation at one year, many people experienced remission and some saw 100% visible heal

adam helped open the first major hotel on vieques, the small puerto rican island once used by the us navyt now, a tourist mecca. was there a lot of hope in what he was planning? absolutely, absolutely, he had a lot on the table. narrator: but to lily, there was much more to her friend adam than just his forward-thinking business savvy. for me, i loved his wit. he had that bright, sarcastic humor. but yet he was very kind. he wasn't pretentious. he was just adorable, sweet, sweet adam. narrator: sweet adam had found a new place to call home, a new place to pursue his dreams. and it wasn't long before he found himself pursued by a beautiful young woman. natalie morales: did she catch his eye right away? i don't think it was right away because he had other girls around him, too. it wasn't her. but she was the most persistent. narrator: coming up. they were at a restaurant. and aurea had parked the car. narrator: adam's last hours alive. and they came down the street, where they were met by the assailant who killed adam right here in this cross section. narrator: and detectives make an arrest

so the three of us went navy, one of us went in the marines and one joined the army. so i chose the navy. me, i think having my dad served certainly influenced me. my grandfather served on a battleship, the utah, during world war i. and so lots of navy sort of background in the family. it just sort of made the most sense to me. >> what attracted you to public affairs? >> actually that's sort of the best decision i never actually made. i was on my first short tour at the naval academy. i just finished up duty on a guided missile frigate, the jacksonville, 2 1/2 years, assistant navigator. i ascended through the academy to teach navigation and i didn't want to leave the navy, but i didn't want to stay a surface warfare officer, for a lot of reasons. and i met a guy there. his name is jamie graybill, also a retired pao. we became fast friends and he felt the same way. we loved the navy. we just didn't want to be sailors anymore. so every day we would pour over the officer catalog of all the different communities you could transfer into, and we just couldn't decide. one da

you can even use the navy as a supplement. the israeli navy, that is.cause yemen is a big country. um, it is almost two and a half times the size of britain. um, it has 38 million people. um, and, you know, just bombing sporadically here and there may not have consequences, but at the same time, it may not yield anything useful or productive. this needs to be an international effort. and when i say international, i don'tjust mean the us. take china, for example. uh, 60% of china's exports to western europe go through the suez canal. so it's a vested chinese interest, as it is a vested saudi interest because of the oil that the houthis be dealt with in a broader international way. it could be diplomatic. it could be military. i'm not making that decision right now. but going at it alone from israel's point of view, israel's point of view, that is may not have dire consequences, but equally so will not produce any good results. the israeli prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, is to undergo prostate removal surgery. his office said the 75—year—old had suffe

i would read a few verses from the bible in using a different vocabulary than the one i had used in the navy. i might say. and then eloy cruz would give the plan of salvation to prospective followers of christ. and it was a remarkable successful then winning those souls to be christians when. we got through with our assignment in massachusetts and began to and got ready to leave to go back home. i asked like cruz, what is the secret to your success in winning soldier christ? and he was a little embarrassed by that question. but then he finally said, i tried to have two loves in my heart. one love is god and the other love have it in my heart. i try is for the person who happens to be in front of me at any particular time that's. a very profound statement and one that i remember ever since that time. since leaving the white house, i've got a professor at emory university. i just finished about 36 years as a professor, and i still teach signage here at maranatha baptist church in plains, georgia. plains is a town of 700 people, has grown a lot since i was a child. and we have 11 churches in to
