washington in 2015 totaled 78.8 million pounds, up 11 percent from 2014. production increased in all three states; 30 percent in oregon, 26 percent in idaho, and six percent in washington. acreage increased in all three states as well; 22 percent in oregon, 30 percent in idaho, and 11 percent in washington. washington growers produced 75 percent of the united states hop crop in 2015. the preliminary 2015 value of production of the united states hop crop is $345.4 million, up 33 percent from the revised 2014 value of $260.6 million. record high prices received by growers at the united states and washington levels were realized in 2015. the increased value is because of higher production and hop production shifting from alpha varieties to aroma varieties that are higher in value. more demand from the craft brewing sector has also increased prices for hops. we put stories up everyday state and federal officials are new hampshire school district... it comes just a week after similar threats targeted school districts in los angeles and new york. nashua police say a threat was emailed to the district and it was detailed enough to take action. they say the email contained specific planned acts against two schools in the area. that's why the superintendent made the decision to cancel all classe

washington. washington despised reagan. it came from the american people and it transformed this country and the word of optimism i will give you is the same thing is happening all over this country. people are waking up incredibly and when it comes to foreign policy, the difference a strong president can make is underscored by the simple fact that this very same nation, the nation of iran, released our hostages the day ronald reagan was sworn into office. and with that, i'm happy to answer or dodge any question you like. matt: on behalf of the republican jewish coalition -- \[applause] this is great, i've never gotten a standing ovation before. [laughter] i have a couple of questions, we've been collecting questions over the last few weeks, but one thing that comes up, and my apologies in advance for this comparison, but a number of people have asked, much has been made of barack obama coming into office as a first-term senator with no foreign policy experience. how do you respond to those who raise the same concerns about you? senator cruz: i'll say two things, when the media asks, gosh, aren't you like barack obama, my reaction to reporters is, i thought you thought that was a good thing? last i checked, he won two presidential elections. and listen, barack obama is not a bad president because he was a senator. barack obama is a bad president because he's an unmitigated socialist who won't stand up and defend the united states of america. [applause] but there's a broader point in this. if you look at the last 50 years and at the two moments that had the greatest impacts on human liberty, i would suggest it was 1980, the election of ronald reagan, and in 2008, the election of barack obama. the first in a positive way, the second in a very negative way. they shared something in common. both reagan and obama believed profoundly in their principles, had the courage to fight for them. when barack obama said he wanted to fundamentally transform this country, he meant it. and the damage that has been done in the last seven years is enormous and i believe the only way to undo the damage is if republican -- is as republicans we need to nominate a candidate for president as committed to conservative principles as barack obama is to liberal principles. matt: this dove tails into the next question, which is, how would you convince staunchly pro-choice voters who love your views on security, and israel, that they can still be pro-choice and vote for you? senator cruz: that's a question that comes up a lot. the simple reality is to win. every one of us wants to win. at this point desperately. it's not just a question of our team winning, it's a question of saving this country. i believe the stakes have never been higher than they are right now. that we are at the edge of a precipice, we're bankrupting our kids and grandkids, the safety and security of this country is hanging in the balance. if we continue another four or eight more years down this road, we will lose this country. so we should all look with a stone cold seriousness at how we win. now in washington, there are political consultants who tell us over and over and over again, the way you run is -- the way you win is you run to the middle. every time we followed that advice, we get clobbered. it does not work. the reason it does not work is simple. if you compare 2004, the last nationally,e we won i believe if we are going to win, the central question in this general election is how do you motivate and inspire, and bring back to the polls, the 54 million evangelical christians who stayed home in 2012? how do you motivate and bring back to the polls the reagan democrats, the blue-collar catholics across the midwest and up into new england who stayed home in the polls? and the one thing that is abundantly clear is if we nominate another candidate, in the mold of a bob dole or a john mccain, or a mitt romney, all of whom are good, honorable, decent men, who love this country, but what they did didn't work. and if we do it again, the same millions of voters who stayed home in 2008 and 20

washington. washington. as the incident unfolded, the details were just a little too familiar for lt col tony schaffer, who says the planning, the military precision and the attack on a soft target raise red flags. "based on the evidence i've seen, this attack fits the charlie hebdo, elements of that attack as well as the isis attack in paris a few weeks ago.thursday, law enforcement officials told cnn that syed rizwan farook was radicalized and had been in touch with people being investigated by the f-b-i for international terrorism." it's a radicalized person regardless of ideology on this one. you know someone's drawn in to say you know i've reached a point where i need to cross that line and commit an act - they're no longer just upset at home they want to actually commit a violent act"seamus hughes co-authored a report released this week about isis in america. in it, research points squarely to social media - a central player in the process of radicalization.it creates a space in which isis sympathizers can be groomed from afar. it acts as a defacto travel agent - giving numbers and locations for those who wish to travel.and finally serving as a sort of devil on the shoulder - a concept referred to by f-b-i director james comey over the sits on someone's shoulder all day long saying kill, kill, kill and the terrorist if you want to talk to them is right there, in your device."before the internet, experts say radicalization mostly happened during in-person meetings you'd talk to someone once a week, you'd hear a lecture , get riled up but then have to wait a few more days to hear the next one now you kinda get your propaganda on demand." the report concludes that quick and easy access can turn keyboard warriors into battlefield commanders.in washington i'm kf reporting scenes like yeserdays mass shooting in california trigger memories for a lot of ople in johnson county.it was 24-years ago that a grad student opened fire on the university of iowa campus.when it was over, five people died before the gunman took his own life. in the years since, authorities in johnson county and other agencies in the corridor have worked to improve their response to situations like this. continues tonight with reporter mellaney moore live in iowa city, mellaney? johnson county emergency management says they have already been reviewing what they know from yesterday's shooting.they say that impacts some of the decisions they make here. here. unfortunately they're kind of the new normal.like a fire drill or tornado drill, johnson county emergency management says its important to be prepared for an active shooter situation.you can go back as far as gang lu shooting on the university of iowa or columbine or virginia tech or the sandy hook shooting and you

washington washington memoir next makes himself comes out to make him anything less than a brilliant man. kissinger was interested in power and through proximity to power, through proximity to the president, and unflagging work. heroes of german refugee to become secretary of state under's in. for better, or for worse. >> i have a follow-up question for your previous response. i understand why nixon made the tapes, but i never understood why he kept the tapes. >> and i can tell you. >> please. >> on tape nixon says destroy the tapes, after their existence was revealed. why didn't he do it? he never believed the supreme court would ever rule that he would have to turn them over. cannot even conceive of it. second of all, this was the dilemma, this this was also recorded on tape. only send could have destroyed the tapes. claiming they were his executive property and by executive privilege he could destroy them or erase them, or make confetti out of them. but he did not. then the question became, no one knew what was on these tapes, well he did and that sometimes he forgot that the tapes were rolling. so then the question became after their existence was exposed up for the watergate hearing, one of of the four people who knew that they existed, what are we going to do with them? presidents, lawyers, meet lawyers, meet in the white house and they say, are we going to have a bonfire on the white house lawn of these 4000 hours of tape? was going to strike the met? anyone who is not the president who struck the match would've instantly been indicted for obstruction of justice because some of these tapes are under subpoenas. >> to have anything on the sabotaging of the peace negotiation with vietnamese. >> hell yeah! >> to me it makes the watergate looks like child's play. >> it's chapter three of the book in case you are interested. the gentleman is referring to in the weeks before the 1968 election, eight election, president johnson was trying to negotiate a cease-fire and he called a bombing halt in vietnam. next thing, from the summer onward have been in contact with the embassy of south vietnam through his campaign manager, sending word through the south vietnamese embassy in washington to the presidential palace in saigon, don't make a deal with the democrats or with hubert humphrey, nixon's apartment in the 1968 election, wait for for us you will get a better deal. lyndon johnson know about this because the fbi had the south vietnamese wired and the nsa had the presidential palace in saigon wire. so they were were hearing both ends of the conversation. the south vietnamese ambassador is getting communication from the president of south vietnam, and they're talking back and forth in the investors saying listen, nixon said wait. you will have a better deal. and he says absolutely, i totally agree, and on the eve of the presidential election, this close to a deal in paris, the south vietnamese walk. lyndon johnson who recorded his telephone calls says, five days before the presidential election, and i quote, this is treason. it is definitely a against the law, is called the logan actors called in 1798 for private citizens to conduct diplomacy on behalf of the united s

i still think it will be washington, washington plays dallas tonight, so, there is a big game on the horizon, they still could be tide for first place. so sofa bunch of no's, here's another one from brian. they can't play every game and had three non-offensive touchdown it carry them. that's great point. they need the offense to step up and score some point. we'll see if they can do that and finally mike hendricksson says given that they have the next three at home and final game is a bus ride away they control their destin if i they don't win the east shame on them. so, that seems casino of like maybe for mike. but, overall, i think, people are in a wait and see attitude, erika, we shall see. >> wait and see, but this morning they are happy campers. pat, thank you. hey, eagles fans, a lot to be happy about this morning after that win. fans at chickie's and pete's' here in south philly said that victory over the paths gives little balance to the rocky season so far. one fan could hardly keep his >> five and seven, someone's going to win this division at six and ten. wow. e-a-g-l-e-s,

washington. washington despised reagan. it came from the american people and it transformed this country and the word of optimism i will give you is the same thing is happening all over this country. people are waking up incredibly and when it comes to foreign policy the difference a strong president can make is underscored by the simple fact that this very same nation, the nation of iran released our hostages the day ronald reagan was sworn in to office. and with that, matt, happy to answer or dodge any question you like. >> first of all, senator, thank you. on behalf of the republican jewish coalition. [ applause ] this is great. i have never gotten a standing ovation before. i've got a couple questions. we have been collecting questions over the last couple of weeks. i have curated a bunch of them. and i know you touched on them in your remarks. one of the things that comes up -- and my apologies in advance for this comparison, but people have asked that much has been made of barack obama coming in to office as a first term senator with no foreign policy experience. how do you respond those who raise the same concerns about you? >> well, i'll say two things. when the media asks, gosh, aren't you like barack obama, my reaction to reporters is i thought you thought that was a good thing. [ applause ] last i checked, he won two presidential elections and listen, barack obama is not a bad president because he was a senator. barack obama is a bad president because he's an unmitigated socialist who won't stand up and defend the united states of america. but there's a broader point in this. if you look in the last 50 years, and at the two moments that had the greatest impacts on human liberty, i would suggest it was in 1980, the election of ronald reagan, and in 2008 the election of barack obama. the first in a very positive way, the second in a negative way. now, they both shared something in common. both reagan and obama believed profoundly in their principles and had the courage to fight. when barack obama said he wanted to fundamentally transform this country he meant it. and the damage that has been done in the last seven years is enormous and i believe the only way to undo the damage is as republicans, we need to nominate a candidate for president as committed to conservative principles as barack obama is to liberal principles. >> so this dovetails into the next question, which is how would you convince staunchly pro choice voters who love your views on security and on israel that that they can still be pro choice and vote for you? >> you know, that's question that comes up a lot and the simple reality is to win. every one of us wants to win. at this point, desperately. it's not a question of our team winning but a question of saving this country. i believe the stakes have never been higher than they are right now. that we are at the edge of a precipice we're bankrupting our kids and grand kids, the safety and security of this country is hanging in the balance. if we continue four or eight years down this road we will lose this country, so we should all look with a stone cold seriousness at how we win. now, in washingtonthere are political consultants who tell us over and over again the way you win is you run to the middle. and this is no longer an abstract theory. we have now beta tested this theory. and every time we follow that advice we get clobbered. it doesn't work and the reason it doesn't work is very simple. if you compare 2004 the last race we won nationally to 2008 and '12 the biggest difference is the millions upon millions of conservative voters who showed up in '04, who stayed home in '08 and stayed home in bigger numbers in '12. i believe if we're iffing to win, -- if we're going to win, the central question is how do you motivate and inspire and bring back to the polls the 54 million evangelical christians who stayed home in 2012? how do you motivate and bring back to the polls the reagan democrats, the blue collar catholics, across the midwest and up into new england who stayed home in the polls? and the one thing that is abundantly clear is if we nominate another candidate in the mol
