national security and foreign policy. as you know, the united states is constantly under threat from adversaries abroad. the desperate dictator north korea continues to defy international community by firing off ballistic missiles and brutalizing civilians, including americans. and now possibly prepare for another provocative nuclear test. a blood he civil war rages in syria, having already taken the lives of almost half a million people and displacing millions more. china's militarizing islands and threatening its neighbors in russia and russia there's instability through cyber attacks and military occurrences. a tyrannical regime in teheran funds and's international terrorists, and isis and like-minded groups continue to spread an ideology based on death and destruction. the state becomes clear and clear the challenges we face are becoming more complex. as a result, the urgency behind working together becomes greater and greater. before going to be successful in protecting the american people we must confront the most pressing issues with policies that transcend partisan polit

first or america alone? president donald trump announced thursday he will withdraw the united states from the landmark paris climate accord that was signed by nearly 200 nations in 2015 and heralded as a rare moment of international collaboration to avert imminent climate disaster. pres. trump: as of today, the united states will cease all implementation of the nonbinding paris accord and the draconian financial and economic burdens the agreement imposes on our country. amy: donald trump's decision through swift condemnation from world leaders and climate activists around the world. we are fully committed. wherever we are, we all share the same responsibility -- make our planet great again. >> i think some -- i've never seen so much of my life. we do not have much time. amy: we will host a roundtable discussion with climate scientists and activists from around the world. on the very same day trump announced he is pulling the united states out of the landmark climate accord, oil began flowing through the $3.8 billion dakota access pipeline. a new investigation by journalist antonia juhasz

macron: this statement by the united states president, because the times are very serious. i duly note the decision by the u.s. president to withdraw from the paris agreement on the climate. i respect the sovereign decision as i regret it. and i hold the view that he is making a mistake in terms of the interests of his country and of his people and also a mistake for the future of our climate. -- future of our planet. i have just exchanged a few words with president trump, and i've already expressed my views to him. climate change is one of the major challenges of our time, and what was merely a topic of discussion a few years ago is now an obvious challenge. biodiversity is under threat and climate change is reducing several continents to hunger, devastating many regions. in france every year we can see the consequences of climate change. if we do nothing, our children will face a world full of migration, wars, and shortages, the disappearance of coastal towns and this has already begun. this is not the future that we want for our children. it's not the future. france's calling i

year 2000 and 2014, the united states reduced its carbon emissions by 18-plus percent. this was accomplished through innovation in technology of the american private. for that reason, you have corrected a view that was paramount in paris somehow the united states should penalize its own economy, be apologetic. anchor: you have been watching u.s. president donald trump announced that the united states will pull out of the paris climate accord. he mentioned in his statement that the u.s. will begin negotiations to reenter on terms that are more fair to the united states. the u.s. president also mentioning that the deal was a redistribution of u.s. wealth to other countries. he mentioned that pulling out of the accord is an assertion of american sovereignty. we have team coverage of this announcement. mya is in washington, barbara is in brussels. here in the studio, i am pleased to welcome a climate impact analyst and advisor to the united nations on global warming. this is an historic moment that we have just witnessed today. what is your reaction? >> it's not really a big surpris

fair to the united states and its workers or to negotiate a new deal, that protects our country and its taxpayer's. applause so if the obstruction #234iss want to get together with me let us make them non—obstructionist, we won't be closing up our factory and we won't be losing ourjobs and we will is it down with the democrats, and all of the people that represent either the paris accord or something that we can do that is much better than the paris accord, and i think the people of our country will be thrilled and then the people of the world will be thrilled. until we do that we are out of the agreement. i will work to ensure that america remains the world's leader on environmental issues but under a framework that is fairand issues but under a framework that is fair and where the burden beens and responsibilities are equally shared among the many nations all around the world. nos responsible leader can put the workers and the people of their country at this debilitating and tremendous disadvantage r the fact that paris deal am strings the united states while empowering some of

lynch. >> mr. chief justice may i have please the court. the united states constitution does not confer citizenship on anyone outside the united states. it is for congress to determine which categories of such person should be granted u.s. citizenship by statute. in doing so congress has always required that the persons involved have a demonstrated in sufficient connection to the united states either in themselves or through their parents to warrant the control of citizenship because citizenship carries with it writes on the part of the individual and important duties of protection on part of the united states government. this concerns the framework under the nationality act of 1952 as originally enacted for granting citizenship for persons outside of the united states as of the date of their birth. other provisions still with things later in life. in particular, this case concerns the granting of citizenship to children born out of wedlock abroad. the situation in which this court's cases make clear that mothers and fathers are not typically situated with respect to their legal status

and why do you think the united states should have gotten out of it? >> engagement internationally on these issues, chuck, is very, very important. and the united states has shown a history of engagement. as you know in the late 1990s, the administration entered into the kyoto protocol and from 2000-2014 this country saw reduction in co-2 emissions, 18%, through leadership and innovation technology. having that discussion internationally, we're part of the treaty ratified in 1992. this goes back almost two decades. >> we pulled out of kyoto. >> we did in 2001. but the framework is still something we're a part of. >> so are you advocating now that essentially even though we pulled out of the paris agreement, it's still going to govern some goals here? >> paris is a bad deal for this country. the president made clear on friday we're going to have a america first strategy with respect to the environment and international agreements. but he also said that engagement, discussion, international discussion and dialogue around co-2 emissions is something we should continue. i think what is

the united states. he is credited with adding more than 200 hours to the school year taking chicago from having the least educational time of any of our school district in the country to being on par with his peers, he implemented full day kindergarten for every chicago child and fought for and won new accountability measures. during his tenure the districtwide chicago public school system graduation rate has grown by 16 percentage points, 3 times the national average. mary manual made chicago the first city in the country to offer free community college for all high school graduates who earn a b average or better. chicago change hasn't been easy for this big city mayor. early in his first term chicago endured a historic teacher strike and the state budget impasse now entering its third year has had a devastating financial impact on chicago schools. he has also had to confront the city's persistent gun violence and grapple with the police department facing questions about its treatment of african-americans. even with this challenges, the mayor who is known as rambo in some circles h

united states which meant we were the third largest polluter in the united states. there has not been a new coal plant since 2009 and the average age is over 40 years old. this move is not going to create more coal jobs because coal is actually being undercut by natural gas not by renewable energy. this doesn't affect the basic economics and the energy space. >> you of course are an advocate when it comes to the oil industry tell us what you expect here that the president and i just want to let the viewers know we have not gotten two minute warning. tell us what you expected to say it address the aspect of the fact that rex tillerson who is now the secretary of state believes that the president should stay in this climate accord. we certainly expect that he is going to announce what's right with dried from the record --dash mike accord. api has not taken a position on stay in or not. were neither cheering or jerry today's decision. paris was a lost opportunity. it significantly reducing carbon emissions. we have become the world's largest producer of oil and natural gas and largest refi

u.k. is a great country, the best ally and best friend of the united states, london is a great city. you have to hope that they can find a way to stop this and prevent these things from happening in the future. all the assistance that they need they can get from the united states, we should give them. host: do you agree with the president who said this is yet another reason why we need a travel ban? , as ofas far as i know this morning, they haven't said much about who the perpetrators are, i know the london police shot three people immediately that they said were suspect in this case. but i think when you ask the question about whether or not the united states is vulnerable to terrorist attacks from people entering here through certain parts of the world, i think that is obviously true. if you want to step back and look back to the 9/11 attacks, the worst terrorist attack on the united states, there were 19 terrorists involved and most of them came from saudi arabia. if you came from the united arab emirates and emerson one of them was given a visa to enter the united states. they

middle east to the u.s. began in large numbers? >> middle eastern immigration to the united states really began in mass numbers in the 1880's. the majority of these migrants were ottoman nationals coming from the ottoman empire. between 1880's and the first world war in 1914, about half a million ottoman subjects came to the americas. about 200,000 of those people were in the united states, and about half that number were syrian arab immigrants. before the 1890's, american immigration officials did not really disaggregate between various classes of ottoman subjects coming to the u.s. everyone was ottoman, but in 1897, they changed the classification scheme to allow for an understanding of ottomans. as turkish, as armenians, as supported jews, and as syrian arabs. one of the sticky notes was that each of these categories was understood as racial category in u.s. immigration law, so that sort of created a new hierarchy whereby syrians were understood to be fundamentally different from the rest of the ottoman subjects coming to the united states, and this meant that there were certain -- the

entered into the treaty. they bypassed the united states senate. they said we won't ask for ratification because they didn't believe the votes were there. you would need a super majority to pass one of these things. not just that republicans would likely have been against ratification. it is democrats like joe manchin, they were concern that had not even democrats would be on board with this. so i think this is one of those situations where you had pretty much wall to wall opposition among republicans, republican who's don't like the deal itself. they think this is a deal entered into by that previous administration. that they don't think the administration should be without the consent of the senate. it binds future administrations to these goals, these targets, these commitments. so this is something that donald trump is doing. i'm just not sure that president rubio or cruz wouldn't have done the same thing. >> nicole wallace, i'm coming to you in a moment. i just want to alert people to reince priebus. i think that appears to be the television operator beneath the colonnade ceiling an

firming they confirming that the president will announce the united states pulled out of the paris accord. that's against all of the lobbying that we've seen from the range of ceos. we talked to corporate leaders over 24 hours, and several months. turning around here just before we came live on the air, that's the national economic counsel, waiting for ivanka trump. she'll be here, a powerful voice inside the white house advoca advocating to stay inside the paris accord. see what her reaction is here, but this was internal battle between the globalists party inside the white house and the nationalist party inside the white house, and it looks like all predictions hold true that it's the nationalists that have won the fight. the key thing to watch here as we wait for the president to speak is what the caveats are to this announcement, what gray area will there be, anything for the globalist faction, corporate faction to hang hats on. we'll wait and see. i spoke to a white house official in the west wing over here who looked me in the eye and said the paris accord is a bad deal for a

carolina. caller: yes, i was listening to the conversation. it seems to me that the united states has never wanted to promote sensibility in the middle east as her guest has stated. one only has to look at 1953 when most of that, the democratic leader of iran, was overthrown by the united states so they could install the shah and control the oil interests. if you look at the arms deal, trump is selling arms, which is a violation of human rights -- cluster bombs are being sold, which is a violation of international norms. i don't buy the assertion by a gust of the united states really cares about the stability of the middle east. italy cares about its unjust. -- its own interests. invading iraq, there was a horrible disaster. one can only look at israel, which the united states pays $10 million a day to prop up, basically an apartheid regime. i just disagree with your guests. i don't see how you can say the united states is concerned about the stability and well-being of the people of the middle east. it seems to me that the opposite is true. they don't want democratically elected gove

united states and our citizens and our territory so that if any war is going to be fought, it is going to be fought as and away game and not a home game on our turf. that is why the missile defense is a must-have for the military and not a nice to have one. it is becoming more so in the future, because our rivals are continuing to advance their ballistic and cruise missile technology. i devised the threats that we face into short term and long term. and short is north korea, and longer term is iran and russia and china as they are deploying more advanced systems. preview, i would say four things we need to go to koucounter att those, and first is to increase the defense spending, and second is to spend some the additional money on the integrate and layered ballistic missile systems, and he third is to develop missile systems, and reconsider, and re-evaluate the intermediate range, and first, let me turn to the threats that we change. as secretary jim mat tis said to testimony to congress, north korea is the most urgent threat to peace and security that we face. this year alone, n

not just hawaii or alaska but the united states mainland. that's why obama warned trump that north korea was the most urgent crisis he might face. i hasten to add that even if north korea struggles to miniaturize nuclear technology, their attack in kuala lumpur airport reminded everyone that they have vast storage of chemical weapons that can be delivered by missile technology. one must also worry about the command and control systems, they are developing, for instance road mobile and potentially launch missiles. one must wonder whether the commanders will be under the full control of north korea's national leadership. second, iran. since the joint comprehensive plan of action, they have tested missiles on at least 14 different occasions. the irg sexy fired in th last week and attempt to strike isis targets. i suggest they were trying to send the signal to the united states and israel. moreover there are reports that iran is supporting ballistic missile technology in yemen. finally, by the time iran's nuclear deal requirements set i believe they will have delivery systems for any n
