>> jason: i don't think so. i think one of the things that the president has done the best in the first six or seven months has been the international diplomacy that he has engaged with. i think it is gone exceptionally well. i gave him very high praise on the g20 effort. i really do. >> harris: in the context of going soft on putin, i think it is interesting, because i remember president obama whispering in the ear of a russian leader how things might be different after an election. that seems friendly and soft. >> kennedy: it was. it is difficult to compare the two administrations without being hypocritical. i think that's what brendan is doing. and i think he has a lot to answer for. to this was either a massive intelligence failure, or it was a politicized cover up with the president at the helm thinking that hillary clinton was going to win. so it really did not matter what the russian state, because they were not going to alter the outcome. they have a lot to answer for. all they are doing, john brennan an

jason chaffetz is here. she's a political analyst, was a speechwriter for former senate majority leader senator frist and tomorrow is her birthday. amy holmes is here. she specializes in detective shows. do you to get involved in real-life investigations? >> amy: my sherlock holmes, i do have that last name. the news about chuck schumer was extraordinary. finally coming to terms with the results of the november 2016 presidential election. congress and your party, you should be getting nervous because democrats are getting a clue. they might get a message. >> jason: i'm not too worried about it. if republicans put up a victory, some sort of victory on the board, then i think all will be fine because it's a more conservative country and i do think there's a reason why donald trump won and he's demonstrating that right now. >> eboni: to take that sports analogy further, it looks like a low-scoring game across the board. the sad thing is i think the american people deserve more in terms of health care, economic

please join me in welcoming the fearless and the peerless jason riley. [applause] >> thank you for that very kind introduction, harry. and i'm glad -- larry. and i'm glad you told a few jokes. i was going to the start with a joke about c-span where i appeared recently. then i found out c-span was going to be covering this event, and my wife advised me to back off. [laughter] so this will be a joke-free presentation, because that's really all i had. [laughter] so thank you. thank you, larry. false black power, what am i talking about? in a nutshell, what i'm saying is that barack obama needed black voters far more than black voters needed barack obama. and that's not a perm attack on the -- a personal attack on the former president. you could substitute in the name of any black politician, and the statement would still hold true. that's what i'm trying to get at in this book. it started out as a column, and it grew into a longer essay and then eventually the short book that was recently published. but my intention was the make a fairly simple point which

it is a pleasure for me to introduce jason riley today. as most of you know jason is a senior fellow at the manhattan institute. a regular columnist for the wall street journal and a commentator for fox news. in his new book, "false black power?", jason office critique of civil rights leaders and their prioritization of pure political power. which he argues has failed to produce significant results for african-americans. the book also includes responses to jason's arguments from two leading black intellectuals. it is a slender book. but it packs a powerful punch. as one blogger noted, what makes the book shine is the clarity of its logic and accessibility of his writing style. just as fred astaire made it look easy to dance, so does riley express his mastery through elegance so natural that it seems effortless. [laughter] how did you get to write this? [clapping] all right they go. and it is available for just $10. six dollars on kindle. jason may not get rich with the book but hopefully he will open a few minds. please join me in welcomin

we're back with jason bateman. jason, i got a bone to pick with you. this is what you said -- you said, in an interview or something like that -- i don't follow your career. >> who's ready to come up here and defend me? >> stephen: you said you were considering becoming a talk show host in new york 20 years from now! is this a retirement plan to you?

( laughter ) and, you know, you're banging out two shows in two hours, you're doing two monologues in p the same tie! he doesn't change his tie! >> stephen: that's right. try it! go ahead! come on, mr. smart guy! come on, introduce me. introduce me. introduce me. give me a good song. give me a good

so congresswoman sewall. >> thanks, jason. i want to begin by saying that while i don't believe in our presidents baseless voting fraud claim and why don't believe that we can trust this administration with the facts, and while i'm deeply disturbed by the characters with the president has chosen to put on his commission, i do agree with our president on one important point. our elections are in need of repair and the american people deserve solutions that will strengthen our democracy. over the past decade our country has seen a new wave of voter suppression tactics that keep low income and minority voters from casting their ballots. the supreme court has struck that our nation's most powerful voter protections, and our election infrastructure is out of date. we need to protect our elections from online threats and cyber attacks. the integrity of our election is at risk but not from voter fraud. if the president is truly concerned with the integrity of our elections that this commission has been charged to do, there are some r

michael goodwin. >> thank you jason. the question about president obama, your comment about bloc voting and for example with the teachers union a think as well said. the feeling i suspect he had in his campaign was where are they going to go, the black voters that elected mayor going to stay with me and the teachers union might stray. number nonwhite people have made the point that after the obama years there will then be this awakening the black power is not all it's cracked up to be them politically there must be other ways. what do you think the republicans and independents mckechnie to do to attract black voters so that they can have better integrated parties in the country as a whole can be less divided racially? >> they need to show up. they have largely just written it off for many years. you can pull over why that is whether it's racism or some other factor but political expediency. they didn't need this vote to win and some of the party may look at trump success and say we still don't need his vote to win and a

an incredible champion. >> thanks, jason. i want to begin by saying that while i don't believe in our president's baseless voting fraud claims and while i don't believe that we can trust this administration with the facts and while i am deeply disturbed by the characters who the president has chosen to put on his commission, i do agree with our president on one important point, our elections are in need of repair, and the american people deserve solutions that will strengthen our democracy. over the past decade, our country has seen a new wave of voter suppression tactics that keep low income and minority voters from casting their ballots. the supreme court has struck down our nation's most powerful voter protections and our election infrastructure is out of date. and we need to protect our elections from on-line threats and cyber attacks. the integrity of our election is at risk, but not have voter fraud. if the president is truly concerned with the integrity of our elections that this commission is charged to do, there are

let's begin with jason carroll live at the white house. jason? >> reporter: good morning to you. you know, the white house now seeming to have to keep up with what it seems like a daily report about this meeting that trump jr. gave in 2016. the latest report offering new insight into what trump jr. knew before the meeting took place. another potential bombshell report from "the new york times" alleging that donald trump jr. received an e-mail informing him that the russian government was trying to help his father's campaign. before his june, 2016, meeting with the president's son-in-law jared kushner, former campaign chairman paul manafort and a russian lawyer fought to have compromising information . . . >>> three unnamed sources tell the times that the e-mail sent by rob gold stone, awe miceic

jason and liz have two daughters. he has got a lot to live for, we have got two little girls, and jason would love to see them grow up. it is probably not realistic, but he wants to spend every day with them for as long as he can. more than four hours into the climb, this has become a battle with the mountain, and inch by inch, a push and pull struggle of wills. jason is climbing partly to raise money for two charities, but also to create memories for his two daughters. jason's speech is already deteriorating, and he will eventually rely on a synthesised computer—generated voice. but to make sure his children still recognise him, he recorded hundreds of his own words, so his computerised voice will sound like him. that is pretty good. that is, yeah. back on the mountain, the batteries are starting to run out onjason‘s wheelchair, so it is a mad dash to the top. finally, after more than eight hours, they have done it. absolutely amazing, what an achievement to get to the top. forjason, it is a huge achievement. wha

jason trennert is with us. i know you are into the banks but overall will we see earning season support the valuations in the market? jason: they should, it looks like a earnings will be of a percent year-over-year for the second quarter, even if you included energy, probably up 5%. s&p 500 operating earnings have been flat for about three years at $118. not to continue to beat up on a central banks, but -- that is my opinion, this unusual meddling in the capital markets by the central banks. you have earnings generally not flat for very long. the good news is, the change in we ares for the year, expecting 100 $24 for s&p 500 operating earnings for the year, $135 for 2018. financials i think will be a bigger part of it into the second half of the year, but you have some of the march divisional sectors, particularly energy, which will help out a bit. inx: a lot of money rotating and out of tech and financials. is there a risk of credit stocks , meaning a beat will not be good enough to keep the valuation? more o

thank you, jason and everybody who has gathered here today. it's my honor to serve on this commission as well, and yes, this is a big day. a big day for democracy, because very soon, trump's presidential advisory commission on election integrity will meet for the first time. but they will meet behind closed doors, with no ability for the public to attend, no ability for the public to view what they are going to be doing, and no opportunity for the public to begin to hold them accountable for this journey they are on now. and it's understandable why. because it is clear that they have refused to invite american citizens to witness what the trump administration's agenda really is. and that's to roll back the clock on voting rights and attack our democracy. as jason laid out, the commission was created for a couple reasons. number one, to soothe the president's ego. he lost the popular vote and can't reconcile that fact. what does he do in response? he makes up the lie of millions of illegal votes cast across the country. we invited him back then

jason: it was not an easy decision. as we looked at our current situation and we look at the prospect in terms of costs and resources and the likelihood of prevailing it, we thought it made sense to move on as separate companies. scarlet: how much of he spent on trying to get this merger through? can you give us a sense on what the final bill might quickly -- likely be? jason: litigation is the most expensive thing. to proceed it,ed it would've been far more expensive than what we have spent thus far. scarlet: can you tell us how this decision involved? was it you that decided it? who was the driver behind terminating the agreement? jason: it was a more mutual thing. it was not nigel and myself. we have people that weighed in. it was a mixed bag. some people were in favor of continuing to pursue it. consensus or general five on our end was we thought it was the best then -- thing to move on. i don't have as much insight into the dynamics of their order or shareholders, it sounds like they arrived in a similar place. we

thank you both, camelot and jason. that is it from the papers. there was no shortage of sunshine today and that did wonders for the temperatures, look at this picture in north—east scotland. a beautiful scene in lossiemouth and after a sunny state it will stay dry tonight with some clear spells, maybe some mist and fog, more cloud creeping across england and wales, turning quite monkeyed down towards the south and that monkey are will move more tomorrow, still some dry weather, sunshine hazy across england and wales but late in the day some thunderstorms approach from the south. temperatures on tuesday quite cool, further west looking at 28 or 29 degrees and with that heat and humidity building, choose tonight into whether state could bring some thunderstorms but they will clear away to leave a fresher feel for the end of the week. this is bbc news. the headlines at 11:00: a boost for schools — the education secretary announces an extra 1.3 billion pounds, but labour says it's not enough. the route of the new hs2 rail line north of birmingham

so congresswoman. >> thanks, jason. i want to begin by saying that while i don't believe in our president's baseless voting fraud claims and don't believe that we can trust this administration with the facts, and while i am deeply disturbed by the characters who the president has chosen to put on his commission, i do agree with our president on one important point. our elections are in need of repair. and the american people deserve solutions that will strengthen our democracy. over the past decade our country has seen a new wave of voter suppression tactics that keep low income and minority voters from casting their ballots. our election in stra truck you're is out of date. and we need to protect our elections from online threats and cyberattacks. the integrity of this is at risk but not voter fraud. if the president is truly concerned with the integrity of the elections which this commission has been charged to do, there is some real questions that our democracy faces. like what can we do to ensure that every american

>> because, jason, give me a second. we know a lot about the person that reached out to him and tried to set up the meeting, the person, his top client is a pop star in russia, whose father is a billionaire and close putin ally and it was on his behalf that donald trump made an appearance on his music video in moscow. the idea that this is a mystery of who this person was is fake. the idea that donald trump, sr. couldn't have known about what happened at this meeting is also bogus when you consider he was at trump tower the day of the meeting. >> you're entitled to your opinion, but not your own set of the facts. the fact is, don, jr. didn't know who this person was. he showed up and she started spew thing nonsense about the dnc. >> we haven't seen any e-mails. that's one of the things -- >> i want to ask jason something. you worked at trump tower, right, jason? >> yeah, of course. >> can you get into trump tower without showing an identification? >> not anymore. >> as of june of 2016 when that place was locked down by t

vonnie: jason kelly, literally wrote the book on private equities. let's get a check on the first word news with mark rich crumpton. mark: president trump is defending his decision to allow his daughter to sit in for him during the g-20 summit. and it's week, the president wrote, "when i left conference room for short meetings with japan and other countries, i asked ivanka to hold seat. angela m agrees." that's referring to angela merkel. fire tore through camden market, causing major damage. there are no reports of casualties. 28 million people visit the markets 1000 shops, restaurants, and bars every year. a fire in 2008 nearly destroyed the market, closing it down for over a year. a british court has given the parents of 11-month-old charlie gard a chance to present evidence that there terminally ill son should get treatment. previous court ruling said the child cannot receive treatment for a rare genetic disease and he should be taken off life support. the application came after pope francis and president trump brought international attention cas

his faith forbids medical aid, and so jason's cure was delivered by angels. well, spontaneous remission, mulder, isn't completely unheard of. so-called miracle recoveries attributable to no clear cause or reason. it's not the miracle i'm suspicious of, it's the messenger. that came as an anonymous e-mail to me from the defense advanced research projects agency. darpa. someone at darpa. how'd you hear about it? ( clears throat ) you subscribe to the goochland guardian? no. so this just appeared miraculously on your doorstep this morning? as far as i can tell, i was the only one to whom it was delivered. someone wants us on this case. it's not a case, mulder. not yet. i'm going to go back over to darpa. you see what else you can find out about that boy. i've just got to know whether it was roma downey or della reese. ( children playing ) yes? hi, i'm dana scully with the federal bureau of investigation. are you mrs. mcpeck? what can we do for you? i'm here about your son. are we under investigation? no. i was just hoping to better understand what happened to hi

thank you, jason and everybody who has gathered here today. it is my honor to serve on this commission as well, and yes, this is a big day. a big day for democracy, because very soon, trumps presidential -- trump's presidential advisory commission on election integrity will meet for the first time. but they will meet behind closed doors, with no ability for the public to attend, no ability for the public to view what they are going to be doing, and no opportunity for the public to begin to hold them accountable for this journey they are on now. it is understandable why. because it is clear that they have refused to invite american citizens to witness what the trump administration's agenda really is. that is to roll back the clock on voting rights and attack our democracy. as jason laid out, the commission was created for a couple reasons. number one, to soothe the president's ego. he lost the popular vote and can't reconcile that fact. what does he do in response? he makes up the lie of millions of illegal votes cast across the country. we inv
