nations have begun to reassert their influence regionally and globally. they are contesting america's geopolitical advantages and trying to change the international order in their favor. --in thisrategy strategy, president trump made clear the u.s. has adopted a new approach to china. we seek a relationship grounded in fairness, reciprocity, and respect for sovereignty. we have taken strong and swift action to achieve that goal. as the president said last year on his visit to china, in his words, " we have an opportunity to strengthen the relationship between our two countries and improve the lives of our citizens." -- ouron of the futuret vision of the future is built on the best part of our past. when america and china reached out to one another in a spirit of openness and french. nation went searching for new markets for experts in the wake of the war. the chinese people welcomed american traders, laden with ginseng and fr when china suffered throughur. century of humiliation, america refused to join in, and advocated the open door policy so that we could have freer trade with chin

bring greetings from the 45th president of the united states of america, president donald trump. [applause] from early in this administration, president trump has made our relationship with china and president xi a priority. on april 6th of last year, president trump welcomed president she tomorrow i go -- president xi to maurgr-a-lago. he welcomed him warmly. over the course of the past of two years our president has forged a strong personal relationship with the president of the peoples republic of china , and they have worked closely on common interest. most importantly the denuclearization of the korean peninsula. but i came before you today because the american people need -- deserve to know as we speak beijing is employing a whole of a government approach using political, economic, and military tools as well as propaganda to advance influence and benefit its influence in the united states. china is also applying this power in more pro-active ways than ever before, to exert influence and interfere with domestic politics of this country. under president trump's leadership, t

vice president of the united states of america, my friend, your friend, our friend, mike pence. [cheers and applause] ♪ >> well, hello, indiana. [cheers and applause] >> it is great to be back home again. thank you all for coming out for such a special night. the governor eric holcomb, senator todd young, the statewide team, members of the indiana general assembly, republican chairman kyle and national republican senate ronna mcdaniel, it is my great honor to be here for the 2018 indiana republican fall dinner 25 days away from a great hoosier victory for republican candidates in all 92 counties. [cheers and applause] >> it really is a joy for us to be with y'all tonight, thanks for coming out, thanks for supporting the republican cause and all great candidates that we are here to talk about this evening and how great is it to have the second lady of the united states of america karen pence with us here tonight, would you all mind showing karen pence just how proud you are of the job she's doing, all across this country every day?

, one democrat, one man, one woman to talk about america and the world. what do they make the donald trump's world view? >> we are great now. we always have been great. >> and what to do about the hot spots around the world. iran. russia. china. also, elections matter. and this weekend's vote in brazil could have rough repercussions all over latin america. maybe around the world. i will explain why we all need to pay attention. first, here is my take. the most consequential casualty of the recent confirmation battle is not christine blasey ford or brett kavanaugh. it's the supreme court and thus, american democracy. the court was one of the last bastions that towered above the fray. it's now part of the dysfunction that has overwhelmed almost the entire american political system. when i wrote a book about illiberal democracy, what saved the country were checks and balances on majority rule from the bill of rights to the senate to the judicial system. i was struck that in surveys, the three governmental institutions that commanded the most respect were ironically all fundamentally non

vote it will definitely put america in a weak position she's been getting weaker and weaker as and more and more unpopular and now if they lose and they seem to have lost big there as well again i would expect she'd be under a pretty severe pressure now. as far as the support on the federal level that at some point the c.d.u. is going to have to look for a new face she's getting very unpopular i think she's a more of a liability for the party than she is a positive fact for instance there have been these so-called macro demonstrations going on for about a year and a half now that means in german the english translation is america has to go and i don't ever remember seeing shrewder like the chancellor before bill passed the goal demonstrations or before him was cold i don't ever remember having demonstrations here in germany saying kohl has to go at least in part of the population she's become really highly unpopular. and now to brazil where a turbulent and hard fought presidential campaign is the right wing populist candidate jay airball scenario has seen off his socialist rival fernand

making america great again. that is what we are doing. [cheering] pres. trump: early voting starts today. so, you got to get out. this is truly an amazing time for our country. unemployment rates just fell to the lowest level in more than 50 years. [cheering] pres. trump: more americans are working today than at any time in our history. think of that. more people are working in our country today than at any point in the history of our country. that's not bad. [cheering] pres. trump: how do you lose an election with that step, right -- that stat, right? that's a tough one. here and no debt -- and no debt -- in nevada, personal incomes have reached an all-time high. spend your money well. america now has the hottest economy anywhere in the world. [cheering] pres. trump: think about it. we are the number one economy with the world -- in the world, we are the hottest economy in the world. it's amazing. amazing. pretty amazing, right? ago, we weres looked upon as being laggards. "they are laggards!" i read that with one of the fake news folks read they wrote, we are laggards. you notice

historical arguments crunched into the smallest possible size. make america great again as an argument about the relationship between the past and the future. so the arguments made on the left are always thinking about the relationship especially between the present and the future. so much of our politics makes comparisons between that time that was an imagined future comparing george washington and barack obama in 2009. the way our partisanship articulates itself is i suggesting that on one side of the political aisle are people who believe in the future and change in on the other side of the political aisle are people who want to stop change. these very crazy redact to this from a slogan oriented understanding of the path are everywhere. i find myself most sympathetic with this. [laughter] definitely dr. gilbert stuart of george washington. but some degree to which -- do we believe in change, are we opposed a change? what do we mean when we talk about american history? how are we to reckon with the fact that our present day is so polarized that we believe that the past is two differe

disillusioned and not necessarily represented by the political process that's going on in america as a whole right now. >> did you ask these groups if they vote and, if so, what did they tell you? >> yeah, so of the four groups, the traditional liberals and the moderates are more inclined to vote. the middle groups, passive liberals and the politically disengaged, those two groups are much less likely to vote, much less likely to be active in their communities. some of them don't even know, for instance, who the vice president of the united states is. they're not necessarily very much engaged about what's going on. they hear people talking about politics but this doesn't concern their daily lives so they don't pay much attention. >> david brooks looked at the survey that he did and he wrote, a smarter look at america's give vied. he said we sometimes think of this as a populous moment, he said, but that's not true. my first big take away from hidden tribes is that our political conflict is primarily a rich, white civil war. it's between privileged progressives and privileged conservatives. >

wrote mean things on twitter called him names sent out and then we called and now america and north korea have unprecedented relations and trance was behaving this way he was criticized for acting with such recklessness but now i guess it turns out that he did everything right still feel probably. things have stabilized to degree booty and i think these are wise choices that people have made at the maybe it was trickle the trump played in order to make north korea participate in dialogue but the situation in north korea has changed as well its current leader kim jong un is like a young gorbachev his vision is different from the ideas of he's predecessors americans think that the soviet union fell because of u.s. sanctions but it is not true and we see the same situation now in north korea americans think that sanctions against north korea are forcing the koreans to talk but it is only one of the factors that now the situation in north korea is a little different it's opened up with kim jong un has a different vision now and he's ready for disarmament. i you know i think i think that

through a very skeptical senate and a very skeptical america i think he's not going to be getting a lot of sleep this week is that tax. is that criminal. it very well might be yes i mean you know that they didn't get al capone on any mob stuff they got him on tax evasion so this is a really dangerous territory for trump these are things that cannot be taken away by a quick tweet or a cute phrase these are things written down on paper follow the money and if that money trail leads to have him he could be in serious trouble statute of limitations will employ well of course statute of limitations apply but so it will just depend on when these particular crimes fell and for each crime what the statute of limitations is the real opening of the cavern or investigation is a formal subtle prosecutor. satisfied with limiting it to. no of course i'm not satisfied with limiting it to week i spent my lifetime trying to get victims to come forward to talk and testify it takes a long time to build trust to get someone to trust you enough to tell you their most vulnerable the most embarrassing secrets

united states of america, president donald trump. from early in this administration, president trump has made our relationship with china and president xi a priority. on april 6th of last year, president trump welcomed president xi to mar-a-lago. on november 8th of last year, president trump traveled to beijing, where china's leader welcomed him warmly. over the course of the past two years, our president has forged a strong personal relationship with the president of the people's republic of china, and they've worked closely on issues of common interest, most importantly the denuclearization of the korean peninsula. but i come before you today because the american people deserve to know that, as we speak, beijing is employing a whole-of-government approach, using political, economic, and military tools, as well as propaganda, to advance its influence and benefit its interests in the united states. china is also applying this power in more proactive ways than ever before, to exert influence and interfere in the domestic policy and politics of this country. under president trump's lea

want to do is show you america. some of the early representations are what is left behind by the indigenous people. it's a conceptual map of the world made by aztec people in the directions of the four corners. quite similar in many ways the ways europeans receive the world before 1492. it was originally drawn in the seventh century and between those centuries europeans i.d. of the world remained fairly stable. the world was divided into three landmasses asia europe and africa and the mediterranean was connected. this is not meant to be a cartographic representation. interested the world was a sphere. this is just a representation and a particularly christian one it is a trinity in which there is unity. it was the map makers to make this voyage. everyone had to paint and draw new maps. these maps are owned by the german mapmaker in 1807. he's trying really hard to update the map with the cartographic information. you can see at the bottom latebreaking news. the map is already then essentially drawn. but what he was doing was trying to reckon with what europeans call the fourth pa

[cheers and applause] and to make sure america's extraordinary comeback, we want to make sure it continues full speed ahead. we don't want democrats that are coming from a different place, we don't want them getting in office. all they will do is obstruct. under republican leadership america is booming. it's thriving. america is winning again because we are finally putting america first. you look back there at the fake news media. look at them. look at them. like the academy awards every time. i would like to walk into a place one night and not have any of these guys. boy, it gets bigger and bigger. but even they have said that president trump -- they probably get fired the next day -- that president trump made promises during the campaign, and i actually produced more than the promises i made. how often do you hear that? judge jeanine: more from the president's rally throughout the hour. but first my open.

disarmament increases risks for western europe and its people. little surprise then that america's plans to pull out of the accord dominated tuesday's meeting between u.s. national security advisor john bolton and president putin and although the subject at hand was no laughing matter there was little room for a little humor. as far as i remember there is an eagle on the u.s. national emblem and there are thirteen arrows in one foot and an olive branch with thirteen olives as a symbol of peaceful policy in the other my question is did your eagle eat all the olives and leave just the arrows. i'm grateful for the opportunity to speak with you on behalf of president and hopefully i'll have smelters for him but i didn't bring any more all of. them that's what i thought. during the talks putin said he was puzzled by washington's move in the absence of any provocation from moscow as for the i.m.f. treaty itself john bolton call it outdated and insists it should be revised to include other countries most notably china international affairs commentator jonathan steele believes it's the fear of beij

violence, and america right now seems incapable of truly coming together. this latest mass shooting was a hate crime. jewish worshippers, killed in a hail of gunfire and an onslaught of anti—semitic slurs. the police have released recordings of their shootout with the gunman. i still want to praise the officers for what they did. i mean, they ran into danger, they ran into gunfire to help others. some of that's training, some of that's experience. but it's their inner core that wants them to help others, that wants to save lives. and they did that yesterday. 46—year—old robert bowers entered the synagogue with an ar—15 assault rifle and at least three handguns. he spoke of genocide and his desire to killjewish people. his oldest victim was 97 years old. robert bowers‘ social media posts were full of anti—semitic rants, and just hours before the shootings he had been critical of a jewish refugee organisation. "i can't sit by and watch my people get slaughtered", he wrote. "screw the optics, i'm going in." this area of pittsburgh is one of the most close—knitjewish commu

goes out to all who have suffered from these heinous acts, which do not represent the best of america. to answer your question, what i would do is i see myself as a unifier and a healer. why? because my approach is to solve problems with real-life solutions. and i am not into partisan attacks. in fact, i prefer to find the best solutions whichever party might bring them. i would be quick to praise barack obama -- though i did not vote for him -- when he came up with the u.s. digital service, which was a wonderful idea, which president trump also doubled down on. wherever the good ideas come from is where have to deploy them for the benefit of vermonters, for the benefit of america. it is not about promoting oneself and one's ideas for the sake of promoting what is next to reach for office. it is for the sake of america. you must remember if you are sent to vermont -- to d.c. as a senator from vermont, then you have a solemn oath and an obligation to serve the people who sent you there. jane: mr. zupan, in an earlier interview this season, you suggested your opponent, bernie sanders, d

exception of those launched at sea trumps move to ditch the i.n.f. does not sit well with america's european allies as they fear the continent's security will be severely undermined. the announcement by the u.s. that it's going to withdraw from the i.m.f. accord is regrettable the i.n.f. agreement has been important pillar of our european security architecture for thirty years for us in europe it's of great importance we call on the u.s. to consider the possible consequences if u.s. and russia need to remain engaged in constructive dialogue to preserve the treaty and to ensure. to ensure its cool and verifiable implementation which of course is crucial for europe's and global security the problem is as others have pointed out in particular this is a problem i think for europeans that this treaty was designed to prevent or reduce the risk of nuclear weapons being used by the nuclear threshold being lowered and not should we say long range heavy nuclear weapons being used against the united states and the soviet union or today russia but that with the shorter range weapons they would

china, for america and the world? but first, here's my take. we have been talk thing a lot in recent days about the supreme court, and the midterm elections and immigration policy, but the trump administration's most significant decisions will be about u.s. policy toward china. the big question is whether the 21st century is going to be marked by conflict or cooperation between the two most powerful and prosperous countries on the planet. the last time that there was such a question when britain confronted a rising germany 150 years ago, things did not work out so well. since the end of the cold war, we have been living in an era of almost no genuine great power competition which has led to the emergence of a dynamic global economy and huge expansion of international travel, trade, culture and contact. and all of this happened under america's uncontested supremacy. -- military, political, economic and cultural. well, that age is over. 25 years ago china made up less than 2% of the global gdp, and theday, the figure is 15%, and second only to america's 24%. in the next decade o
