is that what you see, mark? mark: i think we certainly could see that. we could see an increase in issuance across the m&a spectrum that starts to heat up. remember, it takes time for these deals to come together. we had a big pause coming into february, so i think we will probably see some better issuance in the second half. given the technicals, we have had 33 weeks of outflows in how yields, and that could lead to a bit of widening. jonathan: a conversation i have with a lot of people is the difference between high-yield and leveraged loans in the united states. where is blackrock on the debate right now? leveraged loans or high-yield? bob: tricky question. the loan market has been a good place to hide. i think the front end, as you know, we think the front end of the yield curve in general offers a margin of safety now that it has an offered in the past. specifically 2.5% two-year notes that strikes us as reasonably fair. the loan market, we are definitely witnessing a deterioration in underwriting standards, throughout the market, over the past quar

they got a john mark. karr you know that we went to russia and he started even this candidate pictures we had the pictures before he ever published them and we do worry with that. you're kidding me. i could even tell you what it. they used on a scam and. this is really bad stuff i mean if the government can do this it's it's unbelievable so many federal crimes here. you know but nobody ever held this guy accountable it's weird that we have a journalist from. a russian news media outlet that's more interested. in this then our own. people you know i was very entertaining it was exactly what i said from the start of the stud the sheriff has a political machine that is designed to keep him. finally the officer is adamant that he himself has not heard the thirty second recording. even so he's certain that lewis would have been well aware that he was talking to john dougan and not to a woman. without reason he didn't deliberately trish. i think that he may at one point have figured out that he was getting set u

meghan: thanks, mark. let me also say thank you for all of you him of the johnson emily, thank you for having us and everybody for coming out on a writing night before the fourth of july week. thank you very much it is nice to see a healthy crowd want to learn more about john mccain. one of the things that sets john a part today from a lot of the debate and politics is his belief in american exceptionalism and the values that go along with that. he has talked about it a lot in his career and i would say, when president johnson was in office but that was not a question. the extension of american values overseas with our relationship with our allies and our ability to inspire other people to want the same kind of future for their children and their populations was just a -- everyone adopted that as a truth. to date that is under attack. what is post unique about john and his vision is how steadfast he has held to those values and how he tries to keep encouraging the leaders of our country, in congress, the p

mark is currently working on two books. one on andrew johnson's impeachment, and the other on gilded age politics. he is the author of the "ordeal of the union." i am delighted really that he has come to join us and tell us about the taming of andrew [applause] johnson. [applause] mark: thank you. most kind of you. thank you for giving me a chance for giving me the half hour i have. we were asked and advised that we should treat this talk the way we would teaching a class as opposed to reading a paper. in my case, that is dangerous because if i were doing it when i was teaching a class, there is the brief amount of time before i began to talk about other things and go off into any number of fake references to things that have nothing to do with history. i like to pace around. i am going to try to restrain that, but i have a microphone if i need it. let me start out by talking and offering a few pictures of sorts. this is not just andrew johnson but an interesting political cartoon. and see right there. you can see right the

liking summits i'm joined by my guest mark sloboda he's an international affairs and security analyst and in cyprus we cross to alex kristof or he is the director and writer for the duran dot com all right gentlemen crosstalk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate alex let me go to you first in cyprus i want to in this program on to talk about what was and what could happen so let's pack helsinki. i don't necessarily think that it was a failure for donald trump it was a failure for the media and their continued meltdown go ahead. yeah i think it was we don't really know many details as to that szell policy that was discussed between the two leaders in helsinki and one of the reasons we don't know that much about the meeting which we should be discussing policy because after all that's that's why they met and that's the important part of the summit all we're hearing about from the media is is the meltdown over how trump is a traitor how quittin is a how trump sold out the united states of america and this mass hysteria is clouding and it's f
