you are a monolithic thought in washington. you think alike, you vote alike, and you vote for people and you do not report on the policies of biden and the democratic party right now that is killing the middle-class. host: james, we are going to leave it there. there is a lot on the table. peter baker, what would you like to address? peter: thank you for the call. i understand your point of view on this. i would say that we actually do do a lot of reporting from across the country. we are the only newspaper that has as extensive a national staff as we do. we have reporters in the midwest, the south, mountain states and so forth because we want to capture america outside the east coast. we are not a new york paper. we are a global paper and we do, very extensively, right about the concerns and the issues that have been animating opposition to president biden. we write about the policies that have caused concern among voters and his low approval ratings, including inflation and economic issues. in the end, people are always going

there is just a general panicky feeling in washington. the social quality of the city has evaporated, northerners and southerners cannot even go to the same parties together, there is some violence, congressman from new york is beat up while walking home from the capital one night. but, what is scariest in this winter, which henry adams who is a very perceptive observer called the great secession winter, what is scariest is a feeling that washington is really extremely vulnerable in a military way to southern militias that might just come over from virginia. which is still in the union but has a lot of hotheads who are pro, south or maryland, which is also full of hotheads. washington is surrounded on all sides by slave territory, and without too many militias, it would have been a pretty simple matter to just invade the capital and take over the capitol building and maybe a couple other buildings. and began the operation of something that would have been very strange, but a bit like january 6th it would have been a continuation of the bu

now, his recent trip to washington has demonstrated doubts according to top, russian officials become, wasn't for her to do. it says really, we know with regret that neither biden nor zalinski have spoken words that could be perceived as a potential willingness to listen to. russia's concerns. no words have been heard. warnings zalinski against the shelling of residential buildings and dumb boss, and no cause for peace. have been made. this shows that the united states is de facto and indirectly fighting to the last ukranian de lensky visit to washington and his conversations. he has shown that neither the u. s. administration nor zalinski is ready for peace. the focus was on the conflict, the death of ordinary soldiers, and the further into connection of the ukrainian regime with the needs of washington or some western media outlets echoed a similar sentiment questioning why the u. s. should keep sending so much to ukraine. one example of that fox news anchor tucker carlson said he has no right to demand that washington prop off the eastern european country with tens of billions of d

no. unusually for washington. nothing leaked until very late yesterday afternoon when there was a suggestion that the president zalinski was going to make his way here to washington . and that will get confirmation that nancy pelosi was organizing a joint session of congress on wednesday evening. now consider that there's a big winter storm heading towards the east coast of washington, d. c. many, congress, men and women. many senators will be hoping to get away early. there was really only one reason there will be kept by that early this wednesday just before christmas. and that's for a visit by the ukrainian president. is there any significance of the timing, at least in so far as us politics are concerned? for 1st of all, it's $300.00 days since russia had invaded ukraine, said that's significant as well. there's been some talk over the last couple of days over the ukrainians, obtaining the patriot missile defense system from the u. s. that is going to happen as well. and there's going to be discussions on capi

i live here in ward 8 in washington dc. it's majority black area, the poorest district in washington, dc. and actually, many of my neighbors used to watch r t on their cable channels and really enjoyed it until it was cut off. so they can't watch it. the corporate media won't show this to them. no one's really speaking for them. the railroad strike was just broken over accumulation of the economy is taking place. inflation is running out of control. the interest rates keep going up and people are really suffering. and when i talk to average people construction workers, taxi drivers, my neighbors here in ward 8, they're disgusted with the amount of aid that's going to ukraine. but they have no one, literally no one to speak for them in congress, us on the democratic side. and this is a democratic city there's, there's no one who doesn't support this war. we saw barbara lee who was the loan vote against the a u. m. f to declare permanent war starting in afghanistan, back in 2001, wearing blue and yellow ukraine flag colors. s

that is not that case with every leadership role in washington. and it draws you across the country, because every mainstream is a little different than the other. when you do tax reform or trade or health care, you have to understand all of the roles, that is why this committee i think attracts some of the best. we have a lot of great committees by the way. this when i am partial to. legislators know their issues and you rely on expertise here and in your conference to get things done. host: you had your hand and left your mark on a lot of big legislative achievements. what are they for you? rep brady: tax reform obviously. it is a challenge of agenda recent as you know -- challenge of a generation as you know. building on the leadership of my predecessors. paul ryan, a visionary in tax reform. house republicans putting together the better way at approach and president trump, leaning on that issue. i love what we did. i am not perfect, it leapfrogged america to the most competitive economy. we lifted 6 million americans out of poverty. we drove w

but when it comes to reactions from washington, what do we know sofa with the trumpet? metal tariffs, actually the, the washington is just basically rejected. the w t o's ruling in that. and that's not something that's uncommon. it does that pretty often when things don't go its way. but in terms of the semiconductor export controls, washington is saying is saying that this doesn't, i have to do. i mean this, that this has to, with us is the u. s. is national security concerns and so that the world trade organization is not the right forum to be having this discussion. as we have already communicated to the people's republic of china. these targeted actions relate to national security and the w t. o is not the appropriate forum to discuss issues related to national security. let's not forget, these are metal tariffs that the trumpet, ministration put forward in 2018. they were not just unpopular with china. they were also unpopular with some of the u. s. is traditional longstanding allies and this time china is not standing alone either. there's also turkey and switzerl

a nigerian researcher from human rights watch says washington's unwillingness to assist in providing clarity is worrisome. it bound to guns, failure to provide information and talk commends to determine possible u. s. involvement in a nash strike that took manney's civilian lodge in ne nigeria does not bode well for the u. s. government expressed commitment to transparency and accountability. it tends worrisome message that at minimum, the defense department isn't willing to engage from an issue affecting countless lives and may even reflect an attempt to evade responsibility. their camps, residents killed in the air strikes, had been fleeing the conflict in north eastern nigeria where the government is fighting militants and had thought they were safe in that area. nigerian officials have express regret over the attack a local correspond. it brings us more details. 5 years ago and angela mutually a strike, it's a civilian comp and the board at all. no for wrong. 180 kilometers from maple cri, claiming that the life of at least 115 people, including children and humanitarian walk us

and now this does this suggest that washington has no regard for fair trade? china, by sewing washington d. c to the roach i organization is to international allies. this dispute with united states and attempted to expose the union electro and the ruling intention of the universe. days in which d u. s. actually now is very clearly that they want to economically contain china. washington has claimed it's acting out of national security concerns that they have a point here and look about possibly have to do with international trade rules. well, i think washington d. c has been consistently funded their position and policy. all national security concern is so we have to understand what is the part that i misplaced and has been thinking about. and now i think it is becoming clearer and clearer to the international community that the national security concern that the biden is thinking about a is a kind of risk, which is we call it just in case we've, which has not been happening. and there's no evidence but because of just in case, so they decided to implement all

is lensky no support like this in washington will be vital in the months or years of fighting ahead. but it's not guaranteed. some republicans are concerned about the billions being given to ukraine and when they take control of the house next year, all could change our washington bureau chief in his pole, has been reporting on silent his visit to the united states. she has her analysis. president soleski came to the u. s. first and foremost, to give thanks to the president congress, but also to the american people who have supported ukraine's efforts and for the billions of dollars of military aid provided since the war broke out in february. but he also took the risk of leaving his country because he wanted to make sure that support continues in the coming year. the hard right of the republican party has already been highly critical of him. and with many members from the republican party wowing to stop the flow of funds when they take control in january. he knows that without support of the u. s. he has no chance to fight russia. the big fear of those who are in support of zalinski

during his visit to washington, already mars lensky receives pleasures of military assistance, including the patriot air defense system. russia respond by accusing us of fighting a proxy war. also on the shell cove at 19 sweeps through china. now that beijing has abandoned its strict euro covert policy infections are surging as the virus population largely unchecked. ah, hello, i am claire richardson. those stories are more in just a moment. but 1st we have some breaking news coming in. federal prosecutors here in germany have arrested an employee of the country's foreign intelligence service for allegedly spying for russia. prosecutors have searched the apartment and workplace of the suspect who's been identified only as carsten l. the head of the agency hasn't released further details at this time saying such information could give russia, quote, an advantage in its intent to harm germany. do want to get straight across to d w's political correspondent, simon young. for more on this story assignment. what more do we know? not much more clear than what you've already said. so just repea

she grew up in washington city. she was the daughter of hotel owner, and as such, she up around some really important political figures who would stay in or socialize at her father's hotel right. many wrote and spoke of her as a very beautiful, perhaps even alluring. dangerous seductive beauty. right. and peggy herself quite aware of this. she would write in her biographer excuse me, autobiography years later when i was still in pants. let's and rolling hoops with other girls i had the attentions of men young and old enough turn a girl's head so she is self-aware to write she knows that people consider her to be beautiful right and aware potentially of the potential power that she has in that beauty that she could use. hey, so peggy, as i say, i grew up in her father's hotel. she will marry a man named john timberlake in 1816. okay and he works as a purser on a ship. essentially, he takes care of the money but as such, he spends a lot of their marriage at sea. he's not. so while he is at sea for much of their marria

investigators on scene at the apartment of the suspect's in washington. near the house. it's 15 minutes from where the students were killed. this was such a personal crime. stabbing such a close and personal crime. it takes time, take so much energy. this isn't something that happens in passing. what does this tell you about the investigation and moving forward and what could have possibly brought the suspect took this home, being accused of ending the lives of these four people. >> i've said over and over that i believe at some stage the suspect or some suspects in this case have been in that house before. because they knew they wanted to go from the second floor to the third floor. i am sure the authorities are scrubbing the suspect's home. they are hoping still to find that murder weapon which they have not found. we are going to learn hopefully a lot more in this press conference this afternoon. i've got to tell you the parents, i have felt for the parents and i'm sure that the parents and relatives and the people of moscow, idaho, believe they have the right and pro
