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 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

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

it has been commercial gold for the washington post. in the short run, it has been commercial gold in some ways, absolutely begin the long one, it is highly corrosive the long one, it is highly corrosive the role of the press in the united states. it is highly polarising and we have very polarised state of information in the us as well, and over the long run, that is not a good thing for business. let me ask you about a small little word, lie. it isa you about a small little word, lie. it is a word that does appear in your paper. you have actually fact checking team who were caught and put the number on the number of lies, untruths and misleading state m e nts lies, untruths and misleading statements that stack up from the trump administration month by month, i think you are well into the thousands now. 6000, something like that. is that right? yeah. there are some journalists and i'm thinking for example the former editor of the wall streetjournal who says in his opinion, journalists need to be much more careful about the use of the wo

josh an is executive director at the arab center in washington d.c. he says the cia's conclusion or for the crown prince's involvement is unprecedented for the agency. well i think all indications over the past few weeks indeed you know after the first week. of the end so the. sheen all indications were pointing and direction although it is very important it's very significant that what the washington post in new york times. c m b c n n other outlets over the past three hours have reported that the cia internal assessment now is pointing straight years. in so much as having ordered this operation this has never happened before it's in control diction with the assessment of the saudi government that in its own contradiction which is more important with the assessment of the white house that's not what we have heard thus far from the president of the united states or from his national security adviser bolton who actually released information that's totally opposite if indeed the cia assessment is true i think this is a major game changer in the investig

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

the washington post says it is not clear if. she would be killed but claims he made the call on his brother's orders the developments are likely to complicate president trump's efforts to preserve ties with his key ally trump has so far resisted pinning the blame for the killing of mohammed bin salomon but he might not be able to hold to that if the cia's position is that the crown prince himself ordered a murder. well for more we're joined by instead will correspondent yulia harm you'll hear anger is said all along that the saudi government must be responsible is there a sense of vindication there in turkey now. well let's remember the cia has so far not officially confirmed these media reports that might be one of the reasons why we haven't heard of any official reactions here in turkey yet president out on may comment on the matter later but i think it's safe to assume that for this is good news they have been trying to internationalize the whole investigation getting other countries on board a turkish president out on himsel

it has been commercial gold for the washington press. in the 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 be

well let's go live now to our correspondent robin jordan who's in washington d.c. tell us more about what's happening here and what pressure donald trump is under to act. well the trumpet ministration is under a lot of pressure to act even though they have already imposed two rounds of sanctions against mid-level saudi officials who allegedly were involved in the murder of jamal khashoggi there's still pressure from both republicans and democrats in congress on the trumpet ministration to do more to punish those at the very top those behind because showing scenes murder including punishment of mohammed bin solomon the crown prince of saudi arabia now the president himself has said that he wants to get all of the information that he doesn't want to rush to judgment and he also pointed out that acting too quickly could actually harm one of the u.s. is key interests and economic interest this is donald trump we also have a great ally saudi arabia to give us a lot of jobs to give us a lot of a lot of economic development. they have been doing exactly what i like them t

they call washington. even our adversaries expect us to solve problems and expect us to keep things running and when you start getting dysfunction in washington in which it's difficult for decisions to get made, and policy making to run an orderly process. when what is one of our greatest assets, which is an extraordinary civil service, that career staff, let's say at the state department, when that begins to get undermined, that doesn't just weaken our influence, it provides opportunities for disorder to start ramping up all around the worrell and ultimately makes husband less safe and less prosperous. so we have a stake in making sure we have our act together enough because everybody else, whether they admit it or not, tends to follow our lead. >> exactly. and there is a line between dean atchison -- [applause] >> there's a spectrum, really, from dean atchison and george marshall, to jim bakker, to secretary clinton and secretary kerry. that was a coherent conversation among secretaries of state. you wou
