What is the cause of attachment. Why do we get attached somewhere?
Everybody has got different attachments somebody is so attached to the carrier
he doesn't care for the family, somebody is so attached to the wife he doesn't
care for the carrier, somebody is so attached to money they have bride
burning in India, so much of attachment to money, somebody says "sab bhad mai jaey botal lao"
he is attached to his alcohol. So what is causing attachment?
What is the cause of desire?
Everybody has got different desires sitting listening to the lecture
somebody's mind goes to jalebi somebody's mind goes to chai somebody's
mind goes to the child or the parents in India
everybody's desires are different. What is creating desires within us. Somebody's
desiring money money money somebody's desiring prestige prestige
prestige. What is happening in this inner world that is leading to the creation of
different kinds of desires? again the Geeta, "quoting from Bhagwad Gita"
2.64 Cause of desire is attachment. When the mind is attached to
some object or to some person the attachment of the mind causes desire not
the intrinsic object as such. You see like you may say that you know something
has got a wonderful taste hence it creates desire of course not
Tell me does alcohol have a good taste chi chi Swamiji it causes vomiting to me
but you ask the same question to an alcoholic, who says bad taste
when I go by the pub and I get the whiff of it I start swaying from side to
side. So you say I'll give you a better tasting thing
forget about alcohol I'll give you milk with kesar pista and badam and saffron on
it. I don't want that I want alcohol see he doesn't want just taste he wants that
to which his mind has got attached. Now your mind is attached to your child you
place your child in the lap, you smell the child the child's nose may be flowing
may have done excreta it doesn't matter to you
supposing I say place your nose on your neighbors body for 20 minutes. Swamiji in
the summers he's sweating how can I do that he's foul-smelling. Really your
neighbor is smelling and your child is not smelling? Yea the child should be
smelling I don't know why he's not smelling. Your mind is attached the
attachment has created the desire to hold the child to hear the child to see
the child it is not the intrinsic qualities your child may be beautiful or
ugly that doesn't matter. One mother her child got lost in the
fair, she had gone to you know Anand Bazar Mela and the child got lost. So she
went to the policeman my child has got lost the policeman said mother five
lost-and-found children have been brought see which of them is yours. My
child is not here. Mother how does your child look like? my
child he walks with a limp and his hand is contorted and because of a paralytic
attack his face is twisted and he doesn't have one eye there a pock marks
on his face. CheeChee mother what kind of child are you
desiring? You have seen such beautiful children just pick anyone and feel your
maternal affection. The mother says Mr. policeman are you crazy, I don't want any
of them, I don't want any beautiful child I want my child to whom I am attached
you will never understand a mother's heart. See the mother wants her child to
whom she has got attached so what is creating the desires it's not the
intrinsic qualities of some object it is the attachment of our mind that is what
Lord Krishna stated "quoting from Bhagawd Gita" number one comes attachment , your
mind is attached number two comes desire
number three the fulfillment of desire leads to greed and number four it's
obstruction leads to anger straightforward logic. Now if we are
attached we cannot avoid desire, impossible and if we are not attached
we will not experience desire and everything else will get dismantled
So then desires seems to be caused by attachment. Attachment is the cause of it
all
but what is the cause of attachment? Why do we get attached somewhere? everybody
has got different attachments. Somebody is so attached to the carrier he doesn't
care for the family somebody is so attached to the wife he doesn't care for
the carrier, somebody is so attached to money they have bride burning in India
so much of attachment to money somebody says "sab bhad mai jai botal lap"
he's attached to his alcohol, so what is causing attachment? Okay this is the
important one, it is our own contemplation that causes attachment! See
here is how Shri Krishna begins the link "quoting Bhagawad Gita"
Arjun when you repeatedly contemplate happiness somewhere when you
repeatedly think this will give me happiness
this has got pleasure this will satisfy me, your own repetition of thought
creates the attachment. It doesn't come from the outside
somebody repeatedly contemplated happiness in cigarettes
How did one get attached to cigarettes where you born a cigarette smoker from
the mother's stomach get me the Marlboros otherwise I will
not be happy No then when that boy or girl went to
college and she got some newfound freedom then he saw his friends dangling
cigarettes between the two fingers he said their personality looks very
impressive. His intellect said you know there is happiness in cigarettes so he
tried one and it was a foul experience, he started coughing his eyes became red
his friends instigated no no it'll give you happiness it is giving us happiness
so he kept on contemplating yes there is happiness there is happiness so he
started taking one hiding from the parents sitting in the restroom, under
the staircase and then it increased to two everyday then thr ee everyday and ten
everyday and then it became a link one has got extinguished the second one is
required that has got extinguished the third one is required now a link has got
created. The same cigarette that he first tried out let us see what is there in
this now the cigarette comes into his mind and pinches him, smoke me I will not
let you live in peace. How did this attachment come about by repeatedly
thinking there is happiness there!

S. Korea has exhausted quota on washing machine parts: U.S. customs - Duration: 0:39.
Turning to trade,...South Korea has apparently used up all of its quota for washing machine
parts in the United States, meaning for the rest of this year it'll have to pay a duty
on them of 50 percent.
The U.S. customs service said Korea has shipped 99-point-9 percent of the parts quota of 50-thousand
units.
It'll now be a lot more expensive for Samsung and LG to send parts to their U.S. washing
machine factories.
That safeguard measure was imposed in February along with one for actual washing machines.
For the machines, Korea still has more than half of its quota left over.

US diplomats may have held talks with Taliban - Duration: 0:42.
U.S. diplomats reportedly held face-to-face talks with Taliban
representatives in Qatar. That's according to two Taliban
officials who spoke to The New York Times on Saturday. This
round of talks was meant to kick-start peace negotiations
between the Taliban and the Afghan government. But that's a
pretty big shift from the U.S.' past policies that said the
Taliban should negotiate directly with Afghanistan. As
Newsy previously reported, the Taliban really only wants to
talk with the U.S., who they see as occupiers. The State
Department wouldn't confirm that the talks happened, but the
Times pointed out that it didn't deny them either. Earlier this
month, the Trump administration told its top diplomats to seek
out direct communications with the Taliban.

BREAKING Boom! U S District Attorney Announcement…Will Pursue TREASON Charges Against OBAMA! - Duration: 11:54.
BREAKING: Boom!
U.S. District Attorney Announcement…Will Pursue TREASON Charges Against OBAMA!
Since he first stepped into office, President Trump made perfectly clear that the law mustn't
be broken by any of us, and that no one is above it.
He said that one of his first orders of business, when he becomes commander in chief, is to
rearrange many of Obama's orders, including the one signed by him in his last days in
office, removing Dana Boente as second in line for Attorney General.
Dana Boente was bereaved of his position by the Obama administration without any reasonable
justification.
But now that we have a new commander in chief, he is coming back and will unleash hell to
all liberals who will attempt to sabotage President Trump in any way.
In the meantime, former President Obama is effortless working with the Deep-State in
order to overthrow Trump through all kinds of riots, which Boente thinks to be a form
of "domestic terrorism."
Obama has obviously made his life goal to fight President Trump and to take the power
away from him with a help from his supporters, giving them orders from his home just 2 miles
away from the White House.
A report by Read Conservative News says:
WITH PRESIDENT OBAMA IMMEDIATELY UPON LEAVING OFFICE ESTABLISHING A PRIVATE WEBSITE AND
PROCLAIMING ON IT THAT "I WON'T STOP; IN FACT, I WILL BE RIGHT THERE WITH YOU, AS
A CITIZEN, FOR ALL MY DAYS THAT REMAIN."
IT'S OBVIOUS TO EVEN LAYMEN TO DEDUCE THAT "THE BERKELEY RIOTS MAY HAVE BEEN ORDERED
BY PRESIDENT OBAMA HIMSELF."
THERE IS ENOUGH EVIDENCE FOR THE FBI TO IMPLICATE OBAMA FOR SEDITION AND TREASON BUT BEHIND
THE SCENES, THERE IS FIERCE DEBATE OVER THE FALLOUT INCLUDING WORRYING ABOUT TRAITORS
AT ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT IF ACTION WAS TAKEN AGAINST THE AGITATOR IN CHIEF.
Lou Dobbs explained during his news program that "Barack Obama, who many claim will
be creating a shadow government to frustrate the policy goals of this administration, we're
looking at something that's coming very close to, it seems to me, sedition."

The Trump Doctrine of U.S. Intelligence - Duration: 5:14.
The Trump doctrine of US intelligence
The national security presidential memoranda provide the scope and depth of the current direction of the US intelligence
Agencies which serves as a mechanism for the doctrine itself
doctrines of US intelligence define an administration in the era of history by which it serves
The architectonic system is politically awakened for the first time in human history. Thus the digital age the
Trump doctrine is the doctrine of unpredictability
president Trump doctrine of u.s
Intelligence is based on hardline neo realism and unpredictability between two digital paradigms in a complex geopolitical environment
President Trump has Reis coped the executive branch through technology and political psychological and psychiatric
counterintelligence
For the first time in an American presidency President Trump uses counters
psychological tactics on tweets by which the Central Intelligence Agency can monitor collect and disseminate the
psychological reaction from other users online - and how the president communicates
the Trump doctrine indicates changeability - the unpredictability of the geopolitical
environment that constitutes intelligence - the new digital age
President Trump is strategic in the art of persuasion
unpredictability and psychological tactics
What are the strategic objectives to the Trump doctrine of US intelligence?
one rebuilding the US Armed Forces
- organisation of the National Security Council and the Homeland Security Council
three plan to defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria
four organization of the National Security Council the Homeland Security Council and
subcommittees
Five strengthening the policy of the United States toward Cuba
six integration sharing and use of national security threat actor information to protect Americans
7
Optimizing the use of federal government information in support of the National Enterprise
eight United States conventional arms transfer policy
Nine ceasing United States participation in the joint comprehensive plan of action and taking additional action to counter Iran's malign
influence and deny Iran all paths to a nuclear weapon
The Trump doctrine is unorthodox
however
strategic in the dimensions of counterintelligence
The Trump doctrine is rearranging the geopolitical environment
president Trump withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal
However, it should be noted. It was not a tree V and re-imposed strategic sanctions
thereby altering the environment to set the stages for regime change a
theocracy can only fall from within
However to create a regime change such as the theocracy of Iran
it must both be internal and external components of covered affairs and
psychological warfare backed by the Central Intelligence Agency and
authorized by the president to acquire the decisive strategic advantage in preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons because
Strategic non-proliferation has failed
As a result the Trump doctrine created
national security presidential memorandum number 11 as president
My highest priority is to ensure the safety and security of the United States and the American people
since its inception in
1979 as a revolutionary theocracy
The Islamic Republic of Iran has declared its hostility to the United States and its allies and partners
Iran remains the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism and provides assistance to Hezbollah Hamas
The Taliban al Qaeda and other terrorist networks
Iran also continues to fuel sectarian violence in Iraq and support vicious civil wars in Yemen and Syria
it commits Grievous human rights abuses and
Arbitrarily detained foreigners including United States citizens on spurious charges without due process of law
There is no doubt that Iran previously attempted to bolster its revolutionary aims through the pursuit of nuclear weapons
And that Iran's uranium enrichment program continues to give it the capability to reconstitute
its weapons-grade uranium program if it so chooses as
president I have approved an integrated strategy for an Iran that includes the
strategic objective of denying Iran all paths to a nuclear weapon
Therefore the Trump doctrine needs to counter the gray zone conflict in state and non-state
Terrorism by which these actors such as Iran operating cross domains using tactical methods that exist through proxy wars
President Trump doctrine of preventing Iran from
Nuclear weapons is strategic for us global security in non-proliferation
The trunk doctrine is tilting the geopolitical environment by reimposing strategic sanctions and preparing for a regime change in Iran

Youth Voter Registration Surges – Can Millennials Save Us From Decades Of Bad Government? - Duration: 4:23.
New data released this week shows that youth voter registration in 38 states across the
country is absolutely surging.
The states that have seen the largest increase in youth voter registration, number one is
the state of Florida.
They've seen about a 40% increase since February of this year.
Other states include Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, New York, Virginia, Indiana, and Arizona,
who have seen the largest increases aside from the state of Florida.
One thing that's happened, obviously, is the threat of school shootings.
These young people who are registering to vote in droves right now are concerned about
the fact that Congress is doing absolutely nothing about the issue.
They don't care that these kids have to go through active shooter drills a couple times
a year so that they learn how to handle themselves when a shooter comes into the school, not
if but when.
That is the reality in which these kids live their lives now, and Congress isn't doing
anything about it.
These young voters know Congress isn't doing anything about it, and they're going to take
action.
Now, there is a corresponding statistic that was not in this story about youth voter registration
surging, but it's troubling because according to recent polling data only 28% of millennials
plan 100% on voting in this year's midterms.
Now there's other who say they'll likely vote or that they'll probably vote, but only 28%
right now say that, hell, yeah, we're definitely going out and voting in the 2018 midterms.
So that's what this is about.
It's not just good enough to register all these young people to vote, age 18 to 29.
It's surging, but what good does that do if you don't go out there and use that newfound
right to vote?
You have to do both.
It's not just about registering, it's about taking the time out of your day to go to your
polling station and cast that ballot, 'cause here's the thing.
If this voting registration among this age group continues, they will become the largest
voting bloc in the United States of America, thereby giving them the power to direct the
direction of this country.
They will have the power to steer us where they think we should be going and, as the
youngest generation, as the people who have more time left on this earth than the rest
of us, I think it's a good responsibility and a good idea to let them steer it.
They know what they want.
They've grown up with horrors that most of us didn't even have to think about when we
were in high school.
Not just the threat of mass shootings, the looming threat of climate change that is accelerating
every year.
You know, climate projections that said, oh, in 50 years or 100 years horrible things are
going to happen.
No, those horrible things, not only are they currently happening but they're going to get
so much worse within the next 10 years.
They have to live with that their entire lives, and they have.
Most of us obviously have lived with it for our entire lives, but it was never that big
of a threat at the time.
It wasn't something that was right around the corner ready to wipe out coastal cities
across the planet.
They've had to deal with that.
They have to deal with a economy that could crash at any moment according to economists.
They have to deal with a job market that doesn't want to give them a decent paying job.
They have to deal with rising healthcare cost, as all of us do.
They have to deal with crippling levels of student loan debt.
These problems, while not all unique to this generation, they all affect this generation.
Some of us were spared from having to deal with some of those things.
This age group hasn't been.
So if they register and if they show up, they can vote out these people who say that school
shootings aren't a big deal or that climate change isn't a big deal or that student loan
debt doesn't matter.
Try to get some scholarships, kids.
They can change the direction of this country, but only if they show up.

There's Literally Nowhere In The US Where You Can Escape Corporate Pollution - Duration: 3:02.
We all know that if you're in a big city, if you're in a New York or a Chicago, or an
L.A. or a place like that, you're going to be confronted with a lot of ozone pollution,
most of which is coming from massive corporations or factories or refineries or power plants
near the cities.
Well we all think that we can get away from that, right?
We can escape, we can go to the mountains, we can go to a national forest, get away from
all this pollution and breathe some clean air.
Well, according to newly published scientific papers, you can't do that.
In fact, there is literally nowhere in the mainland United States where you can go to
get away from corporate pollution.
According to newly published scientific studies, the pollution in national parks here in the
United States has now gotten just as bad as in the big cities.
So whether you're sitting right next to an oil refinery or sitting in the middle of Joshua
Tree Forest, you're going to basically be breathing the same amount of pollution.
That should terrify the hell out of everybody here in the United States.
Here are the list of places that have recently been studied to contain almost as much pollution
as a major city that deals with traffic and factories and everything.
Acadia, the Grand Canyon, the Great Smoky Mountains, Joshua Tree, Sequoia, Kings Canyon,
and Yosemite.
All of those places are now just as polluted as a major city.
You can't go anywhere in this country anymore and actually breathe clean air.
You can't breathe fresh air.
It is all polluted because of the activities of corporations and the everyday activities
of human beings.
Driving our cars.
If you're not driving an electric, yeah, it contributes to these bad air days.
Now the report does say a little bit of good news because between well basically 1990 to
2016, air quality in the United States has improved by 31%.
Unfortunately, that study cut off in 2016, and studies have shown us that in 2017, for
the first time in decades, air quality in the United States got worse and emissions
actually rose instead of falling.
Things are getting worse under this administration.
And if it's already so bad to the point where you can't go to a national park that's 100,
200, 300 miles away from civilization and not breathe in corporate pollution, how much
worse can it get?
That's a terrifying prospect, and unfortunately, due to the leadership we have right now in
this country, it's a prospect that pretty soon, we're all going to be facing as a reality.

Can This Tournament Help Fix US Soccer? - Duration: 6:20.
It's no secret the United States has
a long way to go as a football nation.
When we missed the World Cup in 2010.
The backlash and the outrage was enormous
but so was the call for change.
So much of what we need to fix has to start
at the base of youth development
and so much of what we need to do to improve
can be seen right here.
We're at the inaugural ICC futures
tournament with better days ahead for U.S.
soccer are taking roots.
Eight of the top European academies,
eight MLS academies,
and eight all star teams have convened
in Orlando, Florida.
For a chance to compete
and learn in a truly professional environment.
For any soccer player in the U.S. that aspires
to become a professional ICC Futures
is the opportunity of a lifetime.
It was something we'd been talking about for about
a year and a half to start doing something
on the youth side that would have an impact
and help player development here in the US.
There's 24 teams
and eight groups of three teams.
I wanted to have one team from
each category in each group so we have
a team from Europe.
An MLS team and a All Star Team.
Our players never in their lives
they would think that they would come to something like this.
To play against against a team like that.
It's been a great experience.
We actually got to play against Celtic. That
was a good game kind of a blow
but it's the experience that you want to play against
the best.
But it's not just for the players.
This tournament gives a chance for coaches to learn
from some of the world's best.
Better coaches equals better players
and better environment.
So having an opportunity like this event
to watch some of the best talk some of the coaches
are very important.
These players are very impressionable
and if they're able to see
and sense from some of the best in the world at
this age it gives them targets
and it also allows us to understand where
we are in our process.
It's a good experience knowing how the other team plays
and now we know where we are compared to
them.
Some of the European teams,
we've learned playing against them.
We learn what
they have done right, with the groups and their teams.
We
want these young players to be
treated like they would if they were professional players
and put them into situations where
they're playing in front of people.
It's being filmed,
their doing interviews they're getting
a feel for what life will be if they
hopefully continue on the path towards
being a professional soccer player.
To make sense of just how big an opportunity
this tournament is for players in the U.S.
we only have to look back a short while.
The academy system in the U.S. is only 10
or 11 years old 2007 right,
that's when it first started?
You imagine a tournament like this 10 20
years ago?
Not in a million years not
and it wasn't even on my radar.
To see something like this
and to see Arsenal here, and to see Chelesea here
and Cletic here.
It's unbelievable.
I'm on my way to watch Illinois Allstars play against
European giant Tottenham Hotspur.
These Illinois players are some of the most talented in the country
and yet many of them can't find a club
or academy that helps them grow in a professional
environment.
But now they're about to play against one of the most famous
academies in the world.
And just like that Illinois goes up, just go to show the quality there is
in these All Star teams.
I think the expectation going into the tournament was that the European
teams would dominate especially against the
All Star teams that would struggle a bit.
But it just hasn't been the case.
I think that the difference in quality
isn't as big as we had thought.
Coming into this tournament,
I said okay Arsenal,
Chelsea FC,
these guys are gonna blow these guys away.
It hasn't happened. It hasn't happenend.
Penalty to
Spurs saved by the Illinois
All Star keeper.
After an hour our game still
tied at 1 so we are entering
penalties let's see how the Illinois team can hold up against Spurs.
Illinois falls to Spurs in penalties
but they did take them to the limit.
They showed what they're made of they showed their talent
and it shows what this tournament is about
and how much these players can showcase
themselves on such a big stage.
While ICC Futures is the perfect representation of
what is possible in youth development.
This level of soccer just isn't the norm
yet in this country.
What you think is the big difference
between the European academies
and these American academies
and American teams.
Obviously length of time,
many European academies
have been around for such a long time.
It's a very new concept in the
US and it's going to take a while to catch up.
Many of the coaches I saw in my time
were coaching from an American
football standpoint you are starting
now to see coaches in coach
know from a soccer standpoint which
is a completely different animal altogether.
I think there were some fundamental differences in
terms of possible facilities,
environment in general.
But I do think in those areas that we're making great strides.
Another amazing aspect of this tournament
and possibly the most important is that none of
the teams or players have to pay a dime
to be here.
While so many players are priced out of the game
in this country,
ICC wants to make sure that if you're good enough
you're given an opportunity.
The issue is the cost of
soccer in the US.
Our kids can't afford to be in an academy program because of the cost.
There's
a lot of great talent out there.
We just have to find it
and it's got to be affordable for them.
Some of these academy teams are expensive are to play in
or are maybe not nearby
and so their not able to make that drive
to one of these academies.
We paid for all the travel
and hotels
and food
and Puma provided all the uniforms
and the shoes for all the players on the All-Star
teams.
We partnered with Rakuten as well,
and between Rakuten
and Puma they really made this possible.
The idea here
with the All-Star teams is
at the age of 14 there's a lot of kids
now players who are on a pathway
to professional soccer
with the MLS development academies.
But there's also good quality players
in every state who are not playing
at that level and it gives a chance for
those players to be
seen.
As You can see ICC Futures is like
nothing we've ever had in this country before.
These players and coaches spent the week in Orlando
competing with some of the most talented U
14 players in the world.
The United States is still growing as a football
nation, but Futures signals a
clear step in the right direction.
In the second part of this two doc series, we're
gonna get into the action
and examine what's happening on the field at
ICC Futures.

Putin: US Making A Huge Mistake For Using Dollar As Political Tool Against Russia - Duration: 4:25.
You have said many times that Russia must reduce its dependence on the US dollar. Russia has recently been selling US treasury bonds, bringing the share in the reserves down to nearly zero.
Is this all you plan to do? Is this a new state policy, or just protection against the potential extension of the sanctions?
Could it be a BRICS country currency, for example the yuan? We know that the Bank of Russia is increasing its share of yuan denominated assets.
If I may, there is one more question I simply have to ask.
Let me answer this question first, and then you can ask your second question.
Russia is not giving up on the dollar, which is a universal reserve currency.
The Euro can also claim this status more or less, but not fully. Therefore, we are well aware of what the dollar represents today.
As for reserve currencies as such, regional ones are already appearing. To a certain extent, the Russian ruble plays this role in the CIS or EAEU countries.
In general, the strength and value of any national currency depends on the strength and value of the economy standing behind it. We must proceed from these fundamental assumptions.
A few words about the dollar again. We must minimise the risks. We are seeing what is happening with the sanctions that are essentially illegal restrictions. We are aware of the risks and are trying to minimise them.
As for the dollar as a reserve currency, we are not alone in talking about this problem, and it is becoming a problem. You are wrong if you think that this is Russia's initiative.
A great number of countries are talking about exactly this – the need to expand the capabilities of global finance and the global economy, and create new reserve currencies.
This will make the global economy and global finance more stable. This is abundantly clear.
As for our American partners and the restrictions that they are introducing, including in those dollar settlements, I believe this is a big strategic mistake on their behalf
because they are thus undermining confidence in the dollar as a reserve currency. This is the bottom line.
Quite recently, just several years ago, it did not occur to anyone that such instruments might be used in political struggle, in political competition.
Everyone proceeded from the premise that politics is politics or as we joke here: "War is war but lunch is still on schedule."
The same should be true here: disputes are disputes, but when it comes to economics, some things are absolutely stable and immutable.
It turned out this was not the case: payment systems are being used as a political argument in political disputes and in settling differences; currency is being used, too.
I believe it is absolutely clear that this is damaging the dollar as the world reserve currency and undermining trust in it – this is what it is all about.
If this were not the case, there would not be a desire on the part of not one but dozens of countries to consider other options.
It is hard to say now what these options are, but the yuan is certainly acquiring such qualities.
I believe that if it becomes freely convertible from an economic standpoint, this process will accelerate. But it has already been added to the IMF basket, so this is nothing special, a natural process.
Let me repeat that the importance of a national currency depends on the significance of the economy behind it.
Again, we are not going to make any abrupt movements. We are not going to give up on the dollar in any way.
We will use it to the extent to which the US financial authorities will not prevent the use of the dollar in settlements.

N. Korea, U.S. likely to look for common ground on denuclearization, security guarantee - Duration: 2:05.
A few days ago, North Korea and the U.S. took a step forward in carrying out some of their
Singapore summit agreement -- Pyongyang repatriated 55 cases containing the remains of American
soldiers who died in the Korean War.
Now, it's expected their discussions will come back to deal with the rest of the agreement,
notably the topic of denuclearization,... and how the U.S. will provide a security guarantee
to the regime.
Oh Jung-hee reports.
Now that North Korea has returned more of the remains of American soldiers who died
in the Korean War... attention falls on how Pyongyang and Washington will proceed with
denuclearization talks.
Though Friday's repatriation is not directly relevant to Pyongyang's denuclearization,...
it's widely seen that the move did help both sides build trust... and therefore, could
have a positive effect on their denuclearization dialogue.
Since the June 12th summit in Singapore, North Korea and the U.S. have had difficulty moving
forward on the denuclearization front.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo visited Pyongyang for the third time... but could
not meet Kim Jong-un... and after his visit, the North claimed Washington was making unilateral
demands about denuclearization and inspections.
Pyongyang began dismantling key facilities at its Sohae Satellite Launching Station -- believed
to have been the regime's key ICBM test site -- but at the same time, pressed Washington
and Seoul to declare a formal end to the Korean War.
From here on, it's expected that North Korea and the U.S. will focus on finding a middle
ground between the U.S. giving the regime a security guarantee through measures like
ending the Korean War... and Pyongyang taking steps to denuclearize.
This week, the foreign ministers of the two Koreas, the U.S., and China will all be attending
the ASEAN Regional Forum in Singapore.
Their meetings, bilateral or otherwise, could help add momentum to the Pyongyang-Washington
denuclearization talks.

N. Korean embassy in China posts pictures of S. Korean, U.S. Presidents - Duration: 0:47.
A bulletin board outside the North Korean embassy in China has posted on it... pictures
of the South Korean and U.S. Presidents... in a possible diplomatic message.
According to Seoul-based Yonhap News Agency, the board used to have pictures of the summit
between Kim Jong-un and Chinese President Xi Jinping ONLY.
But today, the embassy put up pictures of Kim's summit with President Moon and the one
with Trump... as well as his meeting in May with the Russian foreign minister.
This bulletin board at the Beijing embassy is used for propaganda.
Notably, the change comes as the two Koreas mark the 65th anniversary of their armistice
agreement.
Observers say North Korea could be emphasizing that wants to formally end the Korean War
and end its isolation as soon as possible.

KIMBERLY STRASSEL U.S. AND EUROPE CAIL TRADE TRUCE - Duration: 20:15.
I'm thrilled to announce that in the second quarter of this year the United
States economy grew at the amazing rate of 4.1% if economic growth continues at
this pace the United States economy will double in size more than ten years
faster than it would have under either President Bush or President Obama
welcome to the journal editorial report I'm Paul Gigot that was President Trump
taking a victory lap Friday on news that the US economy grew at a robust rate of
4.1% in the second quarter the fastest pace in almost four years here with a
look at what's behind that acceleration is Kevin Hassett
who's chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers Kevin great to see
you thanks for coming in thanks Paul so 4.1% some people had predicted the
economists particular 4.4 but as you look at the details of the report what
do you like in it well I think that it goes back to a piece I wrote for the
journal a while back that the corporate tax cuts were going to create a capital
spending boom and that capital spending boom was gonna take growth we predicted
last fall this year up to 3.1 percent well if you look at the average over the
first half of the year we've got a capital spending boom and the average
growth is 3.1 percent you know it's not often that economists can nail it that
tightly and it's actually really true that the models are working exactly as
we thought okay but the capital spending in the first quarter was more robust
than it was in the second quarter and here's a big so do you have an
explanation for that sure well one of the things that
happened recall is that for equipment spending you were allowed to expense it
all the way retroactively back to October and so in the fourth quarter of
last year you could deduct a machine at 35 percent so you get a bigger tax
deduction and then at the start of this year then the value of that deduction
went down to 21 percent so we expected to see a spike in the fourth quarter and
then maybe even a negative number in the first quarter and it's in fact what we
got was the spike in the fourth quarter but then continued strong growth and
over the first half of the year so so capital spending by the way is one of
those things that when it pushes growth that it means that the growth
will be sustained because now we've got all these new factories and new machines
here in the US and you know over the next years they're going to produce more
output and so if you have a capital spending boom then you can expect that
to be sustained growth if it were a consumption boom then it might stop
tomorrow well here's another surprise in there this GDP of 4.1% came without any
increase from residential housing yeah we've actually down it's one of it one
of the bad pieces of news in it and and the other thing how do you explain that
though how do you explain that that housing problem it's something we're
studying very carefully and thinking about policy measures to address but I
can say that there are three factors one is that there's an increase in lumber
prices and part of that is driven by some insects and Canadian lumber second
is that home builders are saying that they're having a hard time finding
workers to build the homes and the third is that the hottest real estate markets
have really weird zoning regulations that make it hard to find a vacant
property and build a home sounds to me like one of the things you need to do is
have some guest workers from overseas a little more immigration they would
you'll be willing to support that cuz you know you get more people more
workers you get more GDP more prosperity we want something that brings prosperity
for all Americans and we want to increase GDP on a per capita basis and I
think they're you know basically as the president has emphasizing skilled
immigration is probably the right way to go all right you know as well as I do
the big critique here from our friends on the left is that this is a sugar high
this isn't sustainable this is a one-time hit what's the case for this
being sustainable you made you mention capital investment right but what else
Oh another thing is that you know the president has emphasized opening up
areas for oil exploration and there was a big increase in drilling and mining
activity in the second quarter consistent with that and really the
biggest story going forward to the second half of the year is that a lot of
times if the economy is really booming then inventories will be drawn down
because people are buying more stuff than the producers are making and if you
see an inventory drawdown then that's really positive for the quarters ahead
because the producers will want to build back up their inventories well inventory
subtracted a whole percentage point from GDP growth in the second quarter and we
expect that you'll see that percentage come back in the second half and again
last year in the fall we said that we'd see three point one percent growth this
year the first half is three point one and we're carrying into the second half
this inventory story which could mean that could even go higher okay now the
other big economic policy issue is is trade and I you know we're beginning to
see in earnings calls from CEOs and anecdotal reporting that we get you know
is they're saying look it's creating some uncertainty for me and I'm gonna
hold off investing in that plant or my costs are going up so I have to worry
here about how I manage that how big a headwind is trade policy going forward
well first you know perhaps even somewhat surprisingly to many in the
second quarter trade was a big positive in fact net exports skyrocketed and I
think that that's a sign that maybe one of the effects of the stress that you
mentioned is that people are restoring activity now in anticipation of you know
potential future future uncertainty but make no mistake about it the president
has guaranteed the American people that he would get them better trade deals
he's assured me over and over his objective is to move towards fully
reciprocal deals even zero-zero deals where everybody removes their tariffs of
non-tariff barriers and I would have to say that the people who are hoping for
that outcome must be really really happy about the meeting we had this week with
EU because it's clear that we move the ball way for it in the direction of
freer and fairer trade this week briefly Kevin are we gonna get a NAFTA deal
before the fall here that the this Congress Republican Congress can vote on
you know I'm not a negotiator but I view the things that I'm hearing from the
people that are involved in that especially ambassador Light Heiser is
that they're making tremendous progress my guess is you know that we will see
something by the fall but again I'm not the person who's authorized to come in
on those things but it is absolutely amazing you know the progress that
they're taking the reports that I'm hearing all right Kevin Hassett thanks
for being here thank you all it's great to be back when we come back the United
States and the European Union declare a tariff truce as the two sides continue
to negotiate a larger trade deal so is the protectionist threat over or are
there hurdles ahead
we agree today first of all to work together towards zero tariffs zero
non-tariff barriers and zero subsidies on non auto industrial goods we will
also work to reduce barriers and increase trade and services chemicals
pharmaceuticals medical products as well as soybeans this will open markets for
farmers and workers increase investment and lead to greater prosperity in both
the United States and the European Union that will also make trade fairer and
more reciprocal that was President Trump calling a tariff truce with the European
Union Trump and EU Commission President jean-claude Juncker announcing an
agreement Wednesday under which the US would back away from a threat to impose
25% tariffs on imported cars and rethink duties already placed on imported steel
and aluminum in return the you agreed to make unspecified purchases of US
soybeans and liquefied natural gas all this as the two sides work toward the
larger goal of zero tariffs barriers and subsidies let's bring in Wall Street
Journal assistant editorial page editor James Freeman and colonists Kim's Rasul
and Bill McGurn so James before we get to the trade issue I want to talk about
the GDP reports at 1% I was hoping for better expectations but what what do you
make of the as you examine the details of the report is is this is this
sustainable well first of all it is excellent so if the president wants to
call it huge fantastic beautiful he's entitled to and I think all Americans
should celebrate this is really the economy hitting a higher gear and
whether it's sustainable I think there are some interesting elements in there
and that is very strong business investment which suggests higher
productivity in the future higher growth in the future there's also this elements
within it in terms of final sales that suggests this isn't a one-hit wonder for
left-wing economists out there saying it's a sugar high
I think they're gonna be disappointed again well they were telling us that it
was secular stagnation bill that was Harry summers economist Larry Summers
view that said we can't grow much faster so we have to spend a trillion dollars
spend a trillion dollars on infrastructure right because tax reform
and deregulation that wouldn't do it and yet the policies are tax reform and
deregulation are we seeing the payoff i I think certainly we are look it's a
measure of how expectations have risen that I'm disappointed it's 4.1% you know
if you told me two years ago that I'd be disappointed that remember we were kind
of told by so many people that the new normal was 2% or under 2% I think from
2000 to 2015 the economy grew of 1.7% here which is miserable we have certain
liberal commentators in our paper which we publish the heineken blame me for
that who said I do you can't grow faster than 2% right and here we are and I
think we can grow faster than this you know Trump did predict that 4% yeah i
think i think i think you with the right policies i think they have to go a
little farther but you know Trump predicted this in the campaign was
laughed at saying we're gonna hit 3% 4% and maybe 5% Kim let's move to trade
let's talk about the truce here with the European Union what do you make of this
is this and why do you think Trump moved in this direction because you know
everything we heard internally for from from our sources for a long time was he
was dead set on really whacking German cars what changed well you know Paul
actually since we were talking about GDP he said something very interesting in
his press conference about those GDP numbers he said you know look the
economy's done fabulous but wait till we get these trade deals in place and then
it'll be even better which was notable because it is an
acknowledgement by Trump that trade matters to the economy and that if you
but and that the reverse would matter too so he's being told that these trade
fights that are going on are hurting all the good work Republicans have done in
terms of deregulation in taxes and I think that that was what was driving
this also it matter that Yonkers seemed willing to go to a
place that Trump is now pushing zero tariffs and barriers in the short term
it at least has avoided in a major conflict and those tariffs the longer
term that could be a much harder thing to pull off
so you think him that there was a political part of this and that
Republicans presumably in the Senate and the house were telling the president
looked these tariffs and the retaliation from them are really having an impact in
our districts and you need to ease up on this and kind of reset where you are in
the negotiations at least with the EU and I assume NAFTA behind the scenes may
be going the same direction yeah absolutely because by the way when you
impose tariffs as the president has been doing with China and elsewhere those
effects are felt immediately in these people's districts and States and he's
been getting a lot of pushback from the AG sector from different parts of the
manufacturing sector and even from his own economic King saying look we cannot
keep going down this road all right James what do you make of the the trade
agenda going forward and as you look at the GDP numbers did you see any impact
of trade the trade policies in the numbers yeah you saw a nice contribution
from exports so I think that's a nice reminder for everybody the president
included that this is a part of the growth strategy here it should be but
some of that was probably when people think was let's get out ahead of the of
the tariff science sell the soybeans early we may not get that bounce back in
the second or third quarter yeah I'm sure that was part of it but I would
also say that was probably balanced somewhat by the fear of trade fights
discouraging some investment we mentioned now although the capital
investment was terrific outstanding it wasn't quite as good as the first
quarter and I think some of that was maybe people being a little afraid to
pull the trigger on a new factory not knowing how this trade stuff was going
to be resolved but going forward I it is just really striking the way the tone of
these trade discussions has changed starting with a g7 meeting where the
president at the end says how about zero tariffs now it comes up again he's
obviously got the Germans excited about it
now mr. Yonker let's hope that is the discussion how do we low
instead of raised bill briefly is at the Kudlow effect Larry Kyle I don't know
look it's a big deal that we've stepped back you know in this Trump reminds me
of the old met relief pitcher tug mcgraw he'd come in with one on no outs in the
ninth inning and then he had load up the bases and then hit strike next out but
it was terrifying up until the end and so this is this is a good thing that
he's walked a and also I mean I don't agree with the strategy of protectionist
threats to achieve a free-market goal but he isn't looking for protection as
me is looking for zero tariffs since a lower
we hope so all right still ahead the Trump administration putting those
proposed auto tariffs on hold as the US and EU continue negotiations senator
Lamar Alexander on what that news means for the auto industry in Tennessee and
across the country when we come back
in tariffs remain in place and the investigation on autos will continue is
just we won't impose any auto tariffs as long as the negotiations are progressing
properly that was Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross
this week saying he'd continue his section 232 investigation into the
national security threat posed by importing cars trucks and auto parts but
that auto tariffs against the European Union would be put on hold as talks
between the US and the EU continue this is good news for Tennessee senator Lamar
Alexander who introduced a bipartisan bill this week to delay the proposed 25%
penalty and he joins us now senator welcome so usual you cheered the this
truce this week between the United States and the EU why well zero tariffs
is exactly the right policy that's what we did with the North American Free
Trade Agreement we implemented nearly zero tariffs over 15 years and and now
that we've got a policy of where we're going zero tariffs it's time to get rid
of the steel and aluminum tariffs which are driving up the costs of cars and
hurting the 136,000 Tennesseans who work in the automotive industry all right but
you heard the secretary Wilbur Ross say this week that he's still going to go
ahead with these 232 investigations which basically are designed to show
what to ask to answer the question do cars that are imported pose a national
security threat now do you think that BMWs or Nissan's
imported in the United States are at all plausibly a national security threat no
they're not of course they're not that and it's wrong for the president to use
that pretext but you know the bread-and-butter part of this is is this
I mean Tennessee has become in many ways of number one auto state we've got 929
auto parts suppliers 50% of the cars we make here are steel 10% are aluminum so
when the price of steel goes up 40% as it has since January think of what that
does to our economy in Tennessee into the jobs
in Tennessee so we're shooting ourselves in the foot with the tariffs and it's
time to do what the president said this week zero tariffs is the right goal and
the sooner the better well are you hearing from the companies
in Tennessee that in fact their costs are going up where their supply chains
are being disrupted because of the steel and aluminum tariffs of course I am and
and you saw this week that Ford in General Motors and General Motors as a
big plant in Tennessee they announced that they had they were each lost 300
million dollars this year they have to tell that to their stockholders and they
attributed most of that to the tariffs so you know you can't you can't be in a
zero tariffs world which is where the president wants to go and raise the
price of steel forty percent and still make cars and trucks in Tennessee that
are competitive to sell in the United States or export around the world which
we do a lot how many of the cars do you know off the top of your head that are
made in Tennessee and you got a Nissan plant there and they get a Volkswagen
plant Chattanooga and a GM plant Springhill doo-doo-doo how many of those
cars are exported outside the United States well I don't know the exact
number but billions of dollars of cars are exported and billions of parts are
exported the real employment in our state is with the 900-plus
auto parts suppliers and the way you make automobiles you a Nissan Rogue will
go back and forth with its parts to Canada to Mexico and then back to Smyrna
Tennessee before it's finally built that's permits it to be built in a
competitive way at a low cost and sold successfully here and then exported
around the world okay your colleague from Tennessee bob Corker has introduced
a bill with a couple of other colleagues to try to take back some of the
president's authority to use to 232 on that national security definition to
impose tariffs he hasn't been able to get a vote on that be with some of your
colleagues in the Senate why not
well getting a vote on anything's hard in the Senate I'm a co-sponsor Senator
corkers bill but I think the the visits we've had with the president Senator
corkers bill my bill all all the activity that we've had in the Senate to
say that tariffs are shooting ourselves in the foot really shooting ourselves in
both feet we have a trade problem but the way you solve a trade problem is not
to shoot yourself in the foot you find some other way to deal with it so now
that the president has said let's go to zero tariffs which is the same thing
Japan and Europe are doing with each other over a long term right exactly the
same thing we did with the north american free trade agreement let's head
in that direction I think we've had our impact and that suspect will get a vote
as time goes on okay now the president also saying trying to renegotiate NAFTA
what's your advice to the President on NAFTA do you are you saying let's close
this renegotiation as soon as possible so we can have a vote this Congress yes
let's get it let's get it done before September NAFTA has been good for
Tennessee I mean we've doubled the amount of cars
and auto jobs we've had in Tennessee and it's been good for the United States in
my opinion the president disagrees with that fact is we're making about as many
cars in the United States today about 12 million as we did when NAFTA was signed
in 1944 the only difference is we've had about three and a half million jobs
shift not overseas but from the Midwest to Tennessee and other states in the
southeast because of right-to-work laws and because it's more competitive so

N. Korean embassy in China posts pictures of S. Korean, U.S. Presidents - Duration: 0:48.
A bulletin board outside the North Korean embassy in China has posted pictures of the
South Korean and U.S. presidents... in what's likely a diplomatic message.
The board used to have pictures of the summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and
Chinese President Xi Jinping ONLY.
But today, the embassy put up pictures of Kim's summit with President Moon Jae-in and
the one with U.S. President Trump... as well as Kim's meeting in May with the Russian foreign
minister.
This bulletin board at the Beijing embassy is used for propaganda.
The change comes as the two Koreas mark the 65th anniversary of their armistice agreement.
Observers say North Korea could be emphasizing that it wants to formally end the Korean War
and its isolation as soon as possible.

SEN GRAHAM ON TENSIONS BETWEEN U S & IRAN - Duration: 12:12.
welcome back we just heard from vice president Mike Pence on North Korea the
Trump administration urging patience for the process of denuclearization with
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo last week saying if the country is still producing
nuclear fuel meanwhile the north is delivering on a promise to return the
remains of US service members killed in the Korean War what does that all mean
for the ultimate goal of dismantling North Korea's nuclear arsenal
let's bring in Senator Lindsey Graham who's just on the Senate Armed Services
Committee senator it's good to see you this morning thanks so much for joining
us thank you your thoughts on where we are in just about I'm sorry lot to talk
about North Korea my thoughts I think the only reason that we're moving
forward with North Korea mr. president Trump convinced China and
North Korea he was serious about them giving up their nuclear program in a
return they'll have Security and Prosperity having the remains returned
to the United States is much appreciated by the families in the country as a
whole but we're looking for complete irreversible verifiable denuclearization
I fear that North Korea and China are trying to run the clock out China has
pulled North Korea back because we're in a trade dispute with China so if our
post-event trump i'd keep the pressure on i'd be willing to walk away and the
only way you're going to get a deal that really matters is to convince China and
North Korea will use the military option to stop their nuclear program if we have
to and do you think that the North believes that now or has it been
emboldened by it by new strength coming from China I think China is undercutting
President Trump when it comes to North Korea but I think North Korea believes
that President Trump will not allow them to develop a capability to hit the
American homeland with a nuclear weapon he has set his policy in stone complete
verifiable irreversible denuclearization Iran is watching Russia's watching the
only way we'll get there is to put a deadline on this president Trump said he
wanted this to happen in his first term I see the timeline slipping that worries
me but the only way where we any progress with North Korea is because
Trump has been strong in the eyes of North Korea and China and you have to
stay strong I don't want a war with North Korea but there's got a big one
it's going to be in China's backyard not America's backyard and hope China
understands that well let me move on to the other nuclear power Russia and and
the potencial yeah I've never been bored please for president Trump than I am
right now regarding Iran he's working with the Arabs in Israel to isolate Iran
the European Union needs to help us instead of doing business without the
Ayatollah who's a religious Nazi who's just member in the Mideast who wants a
nuclear weapon and will use it one day our European friends should join with
the United States to break the back of this regime the Iranian people are
friends the Ayatollah is our enemy and I like the idea of withdrawing from the
nuclear agreement he took the money the Ayatollah did and spent it on his
military the people are just about had it with the Ayatollah there was a there
was a sign out in the streets during the Obama two-year era are you with us or
you with them to my European friends are you with the Ayatollah or you were the
Iranian people yes keep it up mr. president keep it up secretary Pompeo
break the Iranian regime's back it's a change changes coming to Iran it's a
fair question and then there's China the president had a good meeting with with
the EU apparently do you think this strengthens the unity of Europe and the
u.s. together to go up against China's bad behavior that's the only way you'll
bring about change the WTO doesn't work when it comes to China the European
Union Japan all these nations are being effective unfair Chinese trade practices
here's how this movie ends get a deal with Europe they heavily subsidize
Airbus and that hurts Boeing they have a 10% tariff on cars coming into Europe
made in America is two-and-a-half percent if you sell a car in America
from Europe let's go to zero as soon as we can get rid of these subsidies unite
and reform the WTO and tell China if you want to stay in the WTO we're going to
have new rules you have to abide by you either kick them out or we get out one
of the two because the WTO is not working he's been tough on China that's
for sure and yes let me ask you real quick before you
go senator do you have the votes to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme
Court you just heard the vice president tell me he's expecting a confirmation
before the midterms there's a lot of doubt in this world when it comes to
Brett Kavanaugh I have zero doubt he's going to be on the Supreme Court before
the end of October he's highly qualified well deserving we're going to break the
back of every Democratic effort to stop this good man from being on the Supreme
Court the president could not have chosen better he's got to get confirmed
with democratic we'll see if one of those votes is Donnelly or or mansion
which of course is gonna be meeting with next week good to see a certain boat
thanks so much we see you soon senator senator loons welcome back to Sunday
morning futures my next guest has been pushing for President Trump to
declassify key parts of the highly redacted Carter page FISA application
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunez joins me right now from the
world Ag Expo in two-layer good to see you sir thanks very much for joining us
nice to see you Maria thank you yeah I have here the FISA warrant in my hands
and it's incredible the number of redactions every page is blacked out
congressman and I want to ask you about that because you basically said look
this has to be declassified in order for the American people to understand tell
us why well it's kind of like Groundhog Day if you remember a few weeks ago when
I was in New York and on your show we were talking about the heavy read
actions that were done to the house intelligence committees report that
actually had the information on what Russia was doing in the election however
it had been totally redacted so the public couldn't see it while the
meantime the media was essentially attacking the Republicans work well now
here you have another situation where with the FISA that we've fought so hard
to make sure the public is understood that Clinton paid for dirt was used to
get a warrant to spy on an American citizen using our secret
counterintelligence capabilities in this country so now I can't see it but you
held it up I think roughly 70 75 percent of that FISA that came out last week
that look and we're glad we're glad this came out for the
look to see but at the same time there's so much that's redacted Maria and if you
if you notice what the left and the mainstream media said because once we
were we were exonerated once this came out because we had put out a memo or we
had said that this dossier or the dirt was used to get a FISA warrant we were
exonerated last weekend but now if you if you look at what they were saying
they said oh but the really juicy stuff it's actually the really stuff that
proves collusion and how bad Carter page really was and how they were including
the Russians that's what's redacted well that was
that was kind of the news for 48 hours but once the left and the media found
out that the House Republicans on the Intelligence Committee had asked back in
June for the president to declassify up to 20 pages you hear crickets you hear
nothing you don't hear them they don't want that unredacted they don't want
transparency for the American people so the present the president has the letter
from us I think his lawyers are looking at this to see if they can declassify it
sooner rather than later but the sooner this comes out the better off we all are
because what I've said is what's left that's redacted the American people
really do need to know what's underneath yeah that's what I want to ask you about
because I read the op-ed this weekend with you in The Wall Street Journal and
it's titled Evan hoon as Washington's public enemy number one and in it you
say if people think using the clinton dirt to get a FISA is bad what she what
else that's in that application is even worse and you identify a specific number
of pages in the letter you sense of President Trump that need to be redacted
can you tell us anything about what could possibly be even worse than using
an unverified piece of nonsense to actually get a warrant to spy on an
American citizen well and therein lies the problem right so you the mainstream
media and the left they can run out and say well what's really bad in there is
the stuff that the public can't see it's redacted but the reality is is that's
not the case those of us who have been providing oversight over this issue
we've had several of our members who have been painstakingly going through it
piece by piece and we are quite confident that
the American people see these 20 pages at least for those that will get real
reporting on this issue they will be shocked by what's in that FISA
application has has the president read the unredacted portions I have no idea
what the president has or has not read all I know is that we sent him a letter
back in June asking him to declassify those 20 pages
or more I mean if they can be classified the more the better but I think the bulk
of what we would like to see are 20 pages in the last five it was signed by
the Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein you know it seems that the
midterm elections become that much more important the stakes are so high on
these midterm elections we wouldn't know any of this stuff without your committee
and your colleagues in judiciary and and oversight we wouldn't know half of the
stuff that should place in the 2016 elections what happens if the house
flips and the Democrats take the majority in the house come the midterm
elections is what I said in the Wall Street Journal interview yeah The Wall
Street Journal interview over the weekend I stated that that I am quite
confident because I've seen that this game played many times before there's a
stall game going on at DOJ and FBI they're trying to stall as much as they
can hoping and betting that Republicans would lose the house in the fall and if
that happens then you essentially it shuts down everything rod Rosenstein
will not be held in contempt FBI will not be held accountable all these
investigations will shut down everything will be buried and you'll be left with
media narrative saying oh what the public can't read what you really can't
read what's blacked out that's the really bad stuff against Carter page and
the Republicans in the Trump campaign that's why the sooner the president he
classifies this the better and I think the American people need to understand
how important it's going to be to get out and vote in this election well tell
us where your investigation stands right now is its audition - that interviews
slash depositions will begin over August so we will have members of Congress that
will be flying back to Washington during August to conduct interviews with very
important witnesses that need to be interviewed as it relates to get into
the bar of this Russia gate scandal mr. chairman
let me let me switch gears real quick and ask you about what's going on with
Twitter and shadow banning the president tweeted about it do you think social
media is censoring conservative views and conservative speakers yeah you know
what I didn't even I did I had no idea what shadow Bannen even was I had
absolutely no clue I had over so for several months people have been
contacting me saying that hey I tried to find you on on Twitter I you know I
couldn't find your account why is that and then you had a report that came out
where in fact there were four people in the House of Representatives and in the
only four politicians in the country the elected officials that were being
quote-unquote well they don't call it shadow banning but effectively we were
getting caught up in some type of trap right where people couldn't see our
Twitter feed that was that was mr. gates mr. meadows mr. Jordan and myself okay
so I don't know what Twitter is up to it sure looks to me like they're censoring
people and they ought to stop it and we're looking at any legal remedies that
we can go through mr. chairman good to see you this morning thanks so much
