old town alexandria. a typical museum with exhibits with archaeology but also we are a public laboratory space. people can come and volunteer and see the archaeological process taking place and asking questions about what archaeologist do. what is happening on this table right now are processing artifacts actually from the well at mr. garcia's house. the first stage of archaeology after the artifacts come out of the ground as they come into the lab and the artifacts get processed. first we take the dirt off and that allows us to begin the process of identification of what these things actually are. wells are really important archaeological features to study . that is because they are really time capsule of the past. people use them for a successful number of years as a well and then they start to get used for other things, often as trash receptacles. archaeologist study trash. that is a big part of what we do. eventually the wells get capped so they do not create hazards in the back lot and new wells get

if you criticize alexandria osasio-cortez, that is because you are obsessed with her. here's the reality, if you are in favor of boycotts and sanctioning the jewish state, but you are fine with everything palestinians are doing, the afghan's are doing or any other country in the region that has no human rights to speak of. you're somehow going to boycott israel because someone is building an extra bathroom and jewish east jerusalem, that is not anti-semitic. of course it is. the state department says if you are going to treat them like you treat no other state, that is anti-semitism. alexandria osasio-cortez has not just a disassociated from that. >> shannon: one point you offered $10,000 to donate to charity for her to come in debate you. any response on that? >> [laughs] no. just so she could do an interview on my show. i said, we could do it for no pay. this was considered catcalling. she said i was cackling her. has she looked at me? i'm not a cat collar. the orthodox judaism kind of private side. >> shannon: keep us up-to-date. i also want to ask about the fact th

i's more economically conservative than alexandria ocasio-cortez. and he has more experience than a freshman representative. >> these are the folks who won democrats this last election. if you look at all of the races that were so important and actually got miss pelosi her majority were in the suburban districts with candidates like that guy who sounded more moderate and sound more like republicans in some of their positions. these are the folks that if you put them on those committees, they are going to leave a better impression going forward than alexandria ocasio-cortez who is talking about medicare for all or the great green revolution. jon: i want to share a part of the editorial board on trump and the fed. the title is "overconfidence at the feodosiya." in apparently he has nominator's remorse. but anyone in mr. powell, place would have the same difficult path, enough gaiting nearly a decade of zero rates. the people who put powell in this position is yellen and bernanke. >> jerome powell has a terrible situation he's having to deal with, not

of course, alexandria's reading comprehension is as solid as her basic math, so she took that to mean the pentagon was hiding $21 trillion in a camouflaged steamer trunk, and if she could find it and pry it open, it would almost single-handedly fund single-payer insurance. he tweeted, quote: $21 trillion of pentagon financial transactions could not be documented or explained. medicare for all costs $32t. that means 66% of medicare for all could have been funded already by the pentagon. and that's before our premiums. oh, dear. that's not how it works. the total pentagon budget for the 17-year period the study covers was only $9 trillion. and that's a lot of money. but there's not some magical stash you can trade for band-aids and aspirins in the cellar. my problem isn't with how ms. ocasio-cortez looks or what she wears or how she talks, it's that she has been thrown so many softballs, leftist interviewers are getting group rate discounts on tommy john surgery, and she never corrects her fundamental flaws or does basic research to fix her fuzzy math. democratic national committee chai
