rodgers: trade is very important to eastern washington and washington state. agriculture is our number one industry. we export 90% of the wheat that we grow in eastern washington. this is very important. i have opposed president trump across the board tariffs. i believe we need trade agreements. we need to be moving towards getting these trade agreements in place. and i am encouraged we have a trade agreement with mexico and canada, and there will be more trade agreements coming. i have said from the beginning that we needed to modernize our trade agreements and do it with farmers in mind. i had the secretary of agriculture come to eastern washington, sonny perdue, so i could take them to colfax, hear from farmers firsthand. i invited the chairman of the agriculture committee because i want them to hear from farmers and make sure we are leading with farmers in mind as we move forward. moderator: thank you. your rebuttal. mrs. brown: the tariffs and trade war is the biggest threat we face. it is not enough to oppose in words the actions of the administration. c

washington. the alliance between these two men, washington, the father of his country, and hamilton, the father of american government and american capitalism, did more than anything else to bring about the modern united states of america in which you and i live today. george will put it well when he said you want to see alexander hamilton's memorial? look around you. he really is a messenger from the future. he sees clearer into the future than any of the other founding fathers. it is this combination of washington's impeccable judgment and character joined with hamilton's dazzling intellect. together they are all-concrete, really matchless in its impact. the relationship between these two men i think is a very interesting one and revealing about both men's character. and i want to focus on that tonight because a time most of the focus will be on before washington becomes president, although we can have obviously explore other areas in the question-and-answer period. now, with the benefit of his

washington was hopeful. but he needed was a victory to force them to the table to end this and only in new york were there that many gradually however cornwallis with an army of british troops would end up there in yorktown. you can transfer the army down into good understanding with the naval superiority they completely shift gears and they know he's headed to the chesapeake. they are in philadelphia get out of the hudson for new york and new jersey and henry, the british commander in new york just realized they are not attacking me, they are going after cornwallis washington and rochambeau are on their way that they had no word. he is on his first purchase or pennsylvania when he hears that they've arrived in chesapeake. he turns around, goes back to the waterfront just as rochambeau has been coming down the delaware river by both with the revenue and he sees a man on the waterfront jumping up and down washington has been a very unemotional man could food is good to be -- who could this be. he stops at mou

washington and who is the other person? jefferson and adams and madison in washington.also historians are not supposed to do this. they are not supposed to consciously pose questions of the past formed in the present that is called presentism. everybody's doing it. and i'm joining in. [laughter] . >> so now let's go back to a figure that you mentioned auspicious historians of this. in philadelphia perhaps you particularly thomas jefferson with the declaration of independence he is not document are such a quandary to us. i keep going back to the same words when i read the word paradox and irony. >> if that's what comes to you then i winning. [laughter] so with that paradox of jefferson in that document can you elaborate what confounds us quick. >> yes that's a big one. on seventh and market street on the second floor apartment on a portable desk for - - built by a slave in june 1776 jefferson wrote the magic words of american history we hold these truths to be self-evident all men are created equal. endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights including life

welcome to hardtalk from washington dc. iam welcome to hardtalk from washington dc. i am stephen sackur. president trump is an extremely effective communicator. day in and day out, his message is dominate the news agenda and yet he professes nothing but contempt for what he calls the fa ke but contempt for what he calls the fake news media. what is going on here? what is the trump presidency doing to america's political culture ? doing to america's political culture? as part the bbc‘s beyond fa ke culture? as part the bbc‘s beyond fake news season, my guest today is the editor of the washington post, marty barron. in the midst of all this hostility, who is the real enemy of the american people? marty baron, welcome to hardtalk. from the outside, it looks as though there is a state of unrelenting trench warfare now between the white house and the news media in washington. is that the way it feels to you? i don't feel that way. the white house and the president in particular has said he is at war with the media, said that from day one, his first day in office when he w

it has been commercial gold for the washington press.e short—run, it's been commercial gold in some ways, absolutely, but in the long—run it is highly corrosive to the role of the press in the united states. we have a very polarised society and a polarised state of information consumption in this country and over the long—run, that's not a good thing for our business. let me ask you about that small little word, lie. it's a word that appears in your paper. you have a fact—checking team who record the number of lies, untruths and misleading statements that stack up from the trump administration month by month. i think you're well into the thousands now. 6,000. is that right? there are some journalists, such as the former wall streetjournal editor, gerard baker, who says journalists need to be much more careful about the use of the word "lie" because he says to use that word, you not only have to know what is being said is fake or wrong but you also have to know about the intent. i actually agree with him on that, and that has been our pol

over the last 225 years, washington, d.c.t from being a swampy, backwater capital of an upstart new nation to the world-class capital of the free world. starting with this beautiful temple dedicated to the sovereignty of the people and capped by an statue representing freedom. the freemasons, they were every step of the way as washington evolved into the great city that it is today. it is true that freemasons are known for and are pretty good at conducting ceremonies, as you have seen it, but let's be clear about this, freemasons did much more than just simply perform the masonic cornerstone ceremonies that accompany the building of all great public edifices, monuments, memorials and many churches in this great city. much more than that, countless freemasons roll up their sleeves and play an integral part in the heavy work that needed to be done to build and realize a new formal government base of such principle as liberty and equal justice under the law. throughout it all, these masons were equipped with masonic tenants like

the gentleman from washington is recognized. mr. newhouse: to help steer debate to the issue on the agenda that we're considering today, it's my pleasure to give two minutes to the chairman of the western caucus, the organization that stands for finding solutions to the challenges that we face not only in the western united states but all over the country, the good gentleman from the state of arizona, mr. paul gosar. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from arizona is recognized for two minutes. mr. gosar: i rise to urge support for h.r. 6784. our federal wolf policy has gone rabid. from a policy standpoint we're foaming at the mouth. as chairman of the western caucus i've been trying for years to return some sanity to the way the fish and wildlife service classifies and manages our wolf populations on federal lands and otherwise. make no mistake, everyone who votes for mr. duffy's bill are big supporters of making sure wolf populations are robust and sustainable and healthy for the next century and more. this bill is about fixin

well there's a big struggle everybody knows about it going on in washington over trump's policy toward russia. it would seem and this has been the case i think you and i talked back then when he was a candidate that he said he wanted to cooperate with russia we used to call that detente and that's been pretty much his policy overall policy since he became president but he's also done contradictory things and the question is are these contradictory things the result of his own inability to be a consistent leader or are people in washington preventing him from doing what he wants to do with russia that's the big question at the moment what do you think is it him is it is it he's like a mask of. portraying himself as someone who appreciates put in but then you know behind the doors he does whatever he does or is it really he's helpless and he has to do what that ministration tells them to do. i guess i've been following for soviet in a russian american relations for nearly forty years i don't put a lot of weight or importance on whether the two leaders like each other or not the real ques

washington because european nato countries are allied did trump consult with european leaders before he left history doesn't seem so secondly you're right the europeans are upset they don't like it they're protesting why because they know they will be targeted so you raise a central question will european politics now play a role and what happens and i would mention only one thing to you what we say if we sit back and look at the bigger picture is europe's lonely drifting away from washington in regard to russia everybody says oh it's trump it's because he's such a bad president this began long before trial it began partly over syria where russia turned out to be corrupt so the question is will this new step by trump to leave a treaty that protected europe it did protect europe in the absence of these missiles these weapons will this now further push europe away from washington and continue its drive politically i mean for moscow this is very important as well so the trumpet ministration has actually done much more than just the withdrawal announced withdrawal from the i.m.f. treaty
