the george w. bushne is a newer one. what did you see in the george w. bush library and museum compared to his father's, and one is in dallas and the other one is over in college station, texas. anthony: there is one similarity. they both created a significant -- they both dedicated a significant part of their exhibit to iraq. so for say inordinately the scope of their presidencies. room after room of 9/11, war on terror, iraq and afghanistan. a 6 1/2 foot panel to discuss both the financial crisis and hurricane katrina. it's balanced toward the same general topic. what george w. bush's library has is something called the decision points theater. in truman, you can sit in a small theater and be presented with decisions that president truman had been offered, and the audience gets to vote on what provision they would have made. that's been replicated at the ford library, at the clinton library and generally speaking, they have information after you choose to say, well, thank you for making your choice bu

george w. bushwhich opened right before i finish the book. brian: if we follow you around, what would we see you doing? anthony: the first thing i do would spend a day as a tourist area i tried not to read too much about the exhibits. second day i would go back and watch people. maybe talk to people as they came out and some people would technique outside and i would approach them and say, you might talking to me for a few minutes? the third day i would spend taking photographs. i learned the hard way you have people you are going to take 3000 photographs of your music. brian: what did you do for all your photographs? anthony: i wanted -- i initially thought i would be critiquing the history. i thought that i would make an effort to say, this is what historians agree happened with this particular issue. here is how the library describes it. that got sidetracked when i got into records and looking at the process of how they were built. but it also helps to refer back pointy, that decision theater, wa

and the george w. bushibrary created in the corner of the building and outside is a replica of the rose garden so there is the portico, walkway and they call it the texas rose garden. it gives visitors a much better understanding of kind of what the place looks like, what it feels like, i have been, as a tourist, i have been to the real oval office a couple of times, and both of those libraries really capture the feeling and spirit of what it's like to be there. brian this book came out in what : year? anthony: 2015. brian: the paperback -- did you have a hardback version? anthony i did not. : brian: who published it? anthony: i self-published it, i got turned down by 29 publishers. i got one offer from one publisher, well respected academic publisher but they wanted to hold the copyright in perpetuity and i was advised, i had spent so much time and effort on it, that was bad idea. brian: how did you self-publish? anthony: i used create space, an amazon company, and produced it through there. brian: how did

president george w. bush was a great immigration president. and we know that president obama is a great leader, especially concerned about our dreamers. so this is the first president in modern times, in the lives of these dreamers, who has been anti-immigration. rejecting the idea that immigration is the life blood of our country. the constantness of america and every newcombe who are comes to america with hopes, dreams, aspirations and optimism and courage makes america more american. and that -- in that spirit, i'm pleased to yield to the distinguished democratic leader of the senate, senator from new york, chuck schumer. mr. schumer: thank you.

created by george w. bush. the democrats wanted the top rates to go back to the clinton levels but never that bottom rate. it seems like elementary politics to understand you don't want to be the party caught raising the bottom income tax rate. donald trump knew none of that tax history, of course. but his political instincts were good enough to know that raising the bottom tax rate is a very, very bad idea. but in order to help the taxpayers who the trump tax bill is trying to help, you have to take something away from other taxpayers and trying to cut the corporate tax rate by a whopping 15% and when you're trying to completely eliminate the estate tax for estates over $10 million, you have to take money from someone else to try to pay for that or pay for at least some of that so you can then try to make the claim that this massive tax cut does not spiral the deficit out of control as massive tax cuts always have in the past. and so, if i van ka trump and her brothers are going to pay zero estate tax on the i

what you talked about with george w. bushh really emphasizing military strength and seeing the world in terms of who was on the good side and was on the bad side. -- and who is on the bad side. to see it with venezuela i think through a lot of people' for a surprise. venezuela has gotten less attention from him. brent: the munro doctrine, going back to the 1800s, you are in our backyards we can intervene. trump is willing to intervene if democracy is not restored. is that a promise of military intervention? laura: we don't know what that is in we're not sure what trump thom is in general. he might -- trump promises in general. he might say something but then it will be quiet and he will rent it up again. we will have to see -- he will grant it up again -- ramp it up again. brent: let's listen to what venezuela said in reaction. >> we do not accept threats from president trump or whoever in this world. we are a people of peace, a peaceful people. and what we want is relations of mutual respect not only with united states, but

that really jive with the america first rhetoric what about the voice of a former president george w. bush i was reminded of his axis of evil speech today trump it seemed to continue that tradition but he replaced iraq with that it's what you think about that yeah interestingly i mean i think you do see a trump during this a lot of what you talked about with george w. bush in terms of really emphasizing military strength and really seeing the world in terms of who's on the good side and who's on the bad side and so that's very much in line with what you're talking about to see it with venezuela is actually i think sort of threw a lot of people for a surprise because we've heard him talk of course about north korea a lot we've heard him talk about iran a lot that is way less has gotten less attention from him but was definitely featured in his speech yet much of the money very doctrine right now going all the way back to the beginning of the eight hundred you know you were in our backyard so we can intervene john said that he's willing to intervene but it's well it democracy is not restored

here to discuss is margaret hoover, a former white house staffer for george w. bush.tor hillary rosin and scott jennings, a former special assistant to george w. bush. did you guys work together? >> we did. >> we did. reunited. >> listen, the first lady melania trump made a speech at the u.n. condemning of all things bullying specifically cyberbullying. let's listen to some of her remarks. >> our own example we must teach children to be good stewards of the world they will inherit. we must remember that they are watching and listening so we must never miss an opportunity to teach life's many ethicals yons along the way. as adults we are not merely responsible, we are accountable. >> listen, can we just be honest, scott? are you with me? >> we're always honest. >> you find the statement ironic. should we remind her that she is -- who her husband is? this is some of his tweets, mitt romney, one of the dumbest and worst candidates in the history of republican politics is pushing me on tax returns. dope. how can a dummy dope like harry hurt who wrote a book about me who d

why didn't you see this coming under george w bush?firmly on the middle east to worry about what kim jong—un was doing and his father was doing? i think that there is a complicated series of dynamics, many of which were highlighted in that piece. i think that the bush and clinton administrations, the obama administration, were focused on this challenge. when i was working at the state department under the bush administration, i worked on negotiations with the north koreans, we actually had a programme at the time that was beginning to take apart their nuclear complex, that deal fell apart for a variety of reasons. i think one of the things that is important to note and was highlighted in the film was the fact that kim jong—un is very different from his father and grandfather. he does not respond in the same ways. in a sense, was us intelligence poor for not recognising that and was obama too soft? i think that the american analysts and many around the world, took a while to understand how kim jong—un was behaving differently to his fat

host: let's go to danielhost: in california with health and human services secretary under george w. bush -- with michael leavitt. caller: good morning. i agree with everything you stated in regards everyone must contribute to the safety of the community, but the city of houston, according to rice university professors, developed a property on the flood plans of paris county that were once the basis for the capture of water in the event of significant floods. houston, and to developers, and in order to exploit land that should have been mistaken. everyone should be prepared to contribute to the safety of the community, but there is no way thingovernment does this like in flint, michigan, or in new orleans under the george washington bush, there were efforts to lift the floodwall around new orleans, but they did not do it in time. if we look along the missouri river in iowa, we have cities along the river that were in the when misery flooded, so the government said we are not going to rebuild the city's unless they move backwards and i believe it was moved backwards a significant way. we h

w. bush's useful idiot.

w. bush's useful idiots in the lead up to the invasion of iraq. it is vitally important that the press remains rooted in a fact based universe especially when we enter an era when truth and fiction are becoming indistinguishable olo. all the world's a stage and all the news companies merely players but what kind of parties are into america are to america offers more artsy american personal. in many ways the news landscape is just like the real news big news good actors bad actors and in the end you could never you're on. some other car company all the world's a stage all the world's a stage all the world's a stage and we are definitely a player. on larry king now. the brothers do. everything in our lives it's very unexpected there was no trajectory that said what we were going to do but even being born was no alter sound we were born unless it was complication and the doctor didn't know they were twins with i was one baby i was born doctor left and then the nurse called them back and i think there's another one.

host: professor john yoo is a former deputy assistant attorney general and the george w. bush immigration and the co-author of a new book. want to start by getting your thoughts on how those emerging weapons technologies you talk about in your book could be applied to the threat now of a nuclear north korea. guest: great to be with you. we should keep in mind that north korea is probably our most eminent national security threat that president trump and his national security team at the united nations will make that case this morning -- or this afternoon. we have a person who is in icbm'sof an arsenal of which can reach the united states and tested what appears to be a hydrogen bomb. stuck with and what many american presidents have been stuck with a choice between appeasement and tried to buy off north korea, or contemplating a full-scale conventional or nuclear attack that would probably kill millions of south soul, southuse korea is within artillery range of north korea. we offer a different range of options between those two polar opposites that can be provided by technolo

w. bush's useful idiots in the lead up to the base of iraq. it is vitally important that the press remains rooted in a fact based universe especially when we enter an era when truth and fiction are becoming indistinct. well. many of you have probably heard that the us has something called osha the occupational safety health administration which helps ensure a safe and healthy workplace. some of you are already laughing. you know it's one of the things in the federal government designed to help people you know you know a lot of things left over from a bygone era it was created by that crazy hippie president richard nixon. anyway the agency recently removed its running list of us work related deaths from its proper home page and buried it deep in the web site for more on this we go to our senior labor expert now and the girl. herself this seems a little sneaky on osha's part to suddenly hide this information now that being sneaky and being sensitive to the families who lost loved ones some of them to have somebody on whom the company didn't have

w. bush, sorry, george w. bush actually freed a lot of them and then obama freed a few more.w. freed more once he went through them, but they're still, there still a couple to this day that i question whether they should be free. now, on the other hand, when we made the swap with bergdahl, sergeant bergdahl and five taliban fighters, those five guys were bad dudes. we should never have released those guys for bergdahl that's like releasing five taliban generals for one of our soldiers. so we've done a lot of wrong, a lot of right. it's really just, it's a lawless place and it really needs to be corrected. [inaudible] >> i think it's important if abu zubaydah was an al-qaeda, then he was a? is one of the question to answer in the book. what group did he belong to? he had to belong to somebody. he was running training camps over the heat belong to a group that was doing legwork for the cia since 1973. we know that during the afghan russian war we were paying some of these warlords a ton of money and giving them weapons and giving them realtor support. we were giving propaganda

president george w. bush, one of the best presidents in respecting immigrants in the revitalization of america they provide. president obama following in that tradition. this is the first preds in 30 years or longer but just in modern time who has been anti-immigrant and it's really a very sad thing. hopefully, he'll be pro dreamer and that will take him down a path to comprehensive immigration reform and understanding that the optimism and hope and courage of newcomers to our country are what make america more american. >> now, the north korean rhetoric from both sides but now today the north korean foreign minister saying president trump's tweets and his speech why were a declaration of war against north korea and they are going to respond against our bombers. >> the president of the united states is we've always said the leader of the free world. the president of the united states. i hate to see him giving a platform to kim jong-un. it's really -- he's so beneath the dignity, he kim jong-un of this discuss

george w. bush but we know their true nature. north korea is a regime arming with missiles and weapons of mass destruction. while starving its citizens. iran aggressively pursue seize weapons and exports terror. well an unelected few repressed the iranian people's hope for freedom so much for trump's election promises offering a new approach to world politics focusing on america's national interests and not being the policeman of the world cable map and r.t. new york and george w. bush is not the only president whose rhetoric was similar to trump's at times the new president even sounded like his party opponent and predecessor barack obama in america we do not seek to impose our way of life on anyone i do not think that america can or should impose our system of government on other couples. in remote corners of the world citizens are demanding respect for the dignity of our people a future of dignity and peace for the people of this wonderful earth. we will fight together we must work together to sa

they wanted to avoid the direct comparison to the way george w. bush handled katrina, right? the other thing i think the president had going for him, was that the people who he put in charge of addressing the relief effort actually unlike the george w. bush administration had deep experience in emergency management. even general kelly as chief of staff who was the former d.h.s., head of d.h.s. and so in that way i think he gets deserved high marks for that response. robert: that is a great place to turn. the president faces a choice about who he has representing him, whether at fema with brock long, choices on policy about how this presidency is defined and beyond hurricane harvey and the tragedy in houston immigration policy is also on the minds of many in texas where there is a large immigrant population. president trump has said he'll announce his decision about the future of the deferred action for childhood arrivals program next tuesday. prp you remember established doca to protect undocumented young people brought to this country as children. here is what mr. trump said

that is why his poll numbers went down by the time george w. bush left office. i am happy donald trump took action. all of the same people against pardoning the sheriff, now saying that he should pardon all of these illegal people walking around and taking tax supported money for their schooling and colleges, dreamers so to speak. as regular americans who are living by law, they are not dreamers, you are not a dreamer? the black kids living in harlem are not dreamers who have no resources? only illegal people are dreamers? host: let's hear from the president. here is what he said last week at a campaign rally in phoenix when he spoke about sheriff joe. president trump: to the people in this room like sheriff joe -- do the people in this room like sheriff joe? [applause] [applause] [applause] [applause] was sheriff joe convicted for doing his job? he should have had a jury. i will make a prediction. i think he will be just fine. [applause] [cheers and applause] but i will not: do it tonight, because i do not want to cause controversy. is that ok? all right? good
