wiley about what happened inside cambridge analytic.re time to , thats the larger issue it is undeniable that certain social media platforms -- one being facebook, but it is not the only one. these platforms have the ability to influence what we believe, how we vote, what we buy, how we feel. that fact needs to be disclosed in a clear manner to consumers, and if they want to proceed, that is up to them. to havere there plans ceos of other tech companies testify in the coming months? >> i hope so. the privacy issue, or what i call the propaganda issue, we can all agree it is being spread on the internet. to hear from the tech industry. i don't want to regulate than half to death. -- and the regulation that we do attempt, i would like the social media companies to weigh in and say this would and wouldn't work. kevin: final question regarding china, which is dominating so much of president trump's time, especially this week with the vice premier meeting with is trump today. a tradeconcerned about war with china? what are you hearing from p

wiley fill out an application at least with the enhanced intent to make sure that that application is exactly what you are doing or close to what you are doing? >> yeah, i like to comment on the fact that we issue thousands of tenant improvements from the office building downtown. and they are, some of them are form three. we know that there are 40 floors in the building and multiple office spaces. i don't know that we should be or need to be drilling into all the permits. if we drill into a permit for a high rise building, we get 500 permits show up if it is a large building plaque, you know. in various states of issuance or expiration or what not. but that will take the over-the-counter process that we currently have for permits and with all those permits in-house cactus applications in-house, it would really, in my opinion, it with throw sand in the gears for issuance of permits that normally, i believe, could go forward or be given what they are. we do have to think about things like that with form three. >> commissioner walker, please. >> thank you for this. >> sorry outlet i'll

"deadline white house" with nicolle wallace starts right /s >> hi, everyone. it's milwauk it's 4:00 in new york. the trump defense has come a long way in one year since fbi director bob mueller was directed to investigate the trump campaign and the russians. his lead lawyer rudy giuliani has shifted to a more practical message. far from leaning on a defense of donald trump's innocence, on the questions of collusion or obstruction, it's rooted in the president's character and moral compass. giuliani is citing bob mueller's agreement to abide by justice department policy. >> i asked him specifically if they realized or acknowledged they didn't have the power to indict. both under the justice department memo which gives them their power, in essence, confines their power, and under the constitution. and he said, well, he wouldn't answer. and one of his assistants said they acknowledge they had to be bound by justice d

act as if they think the entire class is just like them but they're wrong because they're all taking wileyifferent stances on what worked in the classroom for them and some people are more visual learners and other auditory and some people like structure some people like a freewheeling conversation and some to better environment with ambient noise and some need silence in someone's work in long stretches and others need to work in short shifts and bursts so i've been writing about this lately that i think the challenge with standardized education is that kids aren't standardized. >> we are done but we will be around so you can ask questions.

mrs wiley works for a rights group that's representing one hundred thousand of their claims for land the whole process is about the liberty that using the portion of land they've always been using so that then currently is not useful to land owners anyway so what we're pushing for processing of the claim so that these people can. in the descendants of the white farmers do have titles many owners are reluctant to give up the small plots where the claimants live and many claimants say the government lacks the political will to address the past injustice it's actually not a matter of political will we are now processing the applications they are pulled out of the department in the past was that rather than subjecting the people to all of those all of that let us rather use alternative ways of securing their tenure if the outstanding applications were processed it may take years but as a will be around for many more his ancestors shed this land communally all he wants before he dies is to own a tiny part of it malcolm webb al-jazeera near pietermaritzburg south africa. or his tatiana. th

wiley, i have a lot of concerns about how these pitforms can be used to people against each other.one of the greatest ideas of america is the idea of indivisibility, that the lines that tie us together are stronger than the lines that divide us as a country. this morning i listened to the new york times podcast, which was all about sri lanka. the headline was when facebook rumors insight real violence. it was about how facebook was being used by sinister forces to incite hatred between groups, fear between groups, and ultimately, violence in this circumstance. i was just so deeply disappointed and anchored when nigel oaks, the founder of the scl group, would say things in recorded conversation -- things like this that resonate. to attack the other group and know that you are going to lose them is going to reinforce and resonate your group, which is why hitler attacked the jews. because he did not have a problem with the jews at all, but people do not like the jews, so he just leveraged an artificial enemy. that's exactly what trump did. he leveraged muslims. trump had the balls --
