I will talk to michael, the former secretary of Homeland Security. Then these white power attacks are part of a movement. When did it begin . What are its goals . A university of chicago historian takes me down the long road to the el paso massacre. Also, trump versus xi. The trade war heated up this weekend in a big way. Somebody had to make a stand. Is it good for america or for anyone . Larry summers, the former treasury secretary weighs in. But first here is my take. President trump has set off what could end up becoming a fullblown trade war. As we go down this path, it is worth keeping something firmly in view. Tariffs dont work. Im not spouting free market fury. Im simply making a prkty cal observation. There have been many efforts in recent decades to help industries in decline in america. I can think of no case where tariffs have worked to reverse that decline except temporarily. Take the most recent example before trump, tariffs on tires put in place by president obama. In 2009, after complaints from American Companies about cheap chinese imports, the Obama Administration slapped a 35 tariff on chinese tires. As many as 1,200 jobs were saved in the tire industry. But the institute also estimates that American Consumer paid about 1. 1 billion more in higher prices, which caused 3,700 jobs to be lost in the retail sector. The cost per job tire saved was 1 million per job. China retaliated on american chicken producers which led to 1 billion in lost sales. As for the longterm effect, well, in 2008, before the tariffs, there was 60,000 americans working in the tire industry. By 2017 there were 55,000. All considered, trumps steel and aluminum tariffs. The protariff alliance for american manufactures claims that 12,700 jobs have been saved or added. But the Peterson Institute calculates that higher steel prices cost American Companies about 11. 5 billion a year or 1 million per steel job saved. U. S. Aluminum production has risen slightly, but it is still well below 2015 levels. The nonpartisan National Bureau released a paper that trump had ushered in. The scholars calculated that trumps tariffs last year cost kmern consumers and firms a staggering 68. 8 billion a year. America now has the highest tariffs among the g7, a group of the worlds leading industrialized companies. Over time other nations will surely become more protectionist as well. And history suggests once imposed, tariffs are hard to repeal since domestic lobbies that benefit will advocate fiercely for their retention. One example in 1964, retaliating european tariffs on american chickens, the u. S. Placed a 25 tariff on trucks. The chicken tax was long ago repealed, but the truck tariffs of 1964 remains in place. It is true that china has been something of a trade cheat. Though it has been using and manipulating the rules to its benefit, not breaking them. But to put things in perspect e perspective, according to a 2015 tally, the country that imposed the most protectionist measures since 1990 was the United States of america, with three times the number as china. Many of trumps demands on china, by the way, have nothing to do with opening up markets. Were going to give them lists of things we would like them to buy. They are shopping lists presented to beijing for goods mostly produced in states that the president wants to win in 2020. Think soy beans grown in the midwest. It is less a trade strategy than a reelection strategy. In fact, it actually moves china in the direction of statism since the only way beijing can fulfill trumps wish list is to have a government or stateowned enterprise buy the goods. It might have started out well intentioned, but it has turned into a highly politicized out of control wrecking ball that could end up destroying a system that has brought peace and prosperity to the world or 75 years. For more, go to cnn. Com fareed and read my Washington Post column. And lets get started. Americas gun violence ep deppic exploded last week. Two massacres perpetrated within hours of each other in el paso and dayton. The el paso suspect wrote a racist manifesto and the department of justice is treating that shooting as a case of domestic terror. An important question emerged over the week. Should domestic terror be dealt with like foreign terror . Americas second ever secretary of Homeland Security serving president george w. Bush, the cofounder and executive founder of a group which advises companies in the private sector on security and risk management. Pleasure to have you on, sir. My heart goes out to those who lost loved ones or who are recovering now in hospitals. Do you think that there is a comparison to be made in the way in which the department of Homeland Security and the american Law Enforcement in general handles a phenomenon like islamic terrorism and what we are now seeing in terms of this domestic terrorism . I think you have to separate two types of terrorist challenges. There is the 9 11 style attack, which is massive, global in terms of its planning and its execution and obviously since 2001 has been a top priority for all of the security agencies. A newer phenomenon is what i call network inspired terrorism, where you get a network that attempts to incite people individually to go out and carry out, whether it be gun violence, driving a car down a highway or knifing people. And these are smallscale attacks. Although, they have multiplied over time. And, so, they have acquired two different approaches. The large scale kind of plot will use all of our intelligence capabilities, our overseas actuallies. Sometimes we actually use our war fighting capabilities to take out somebody. Domestically, whether you are dealing with the jihad or white supremacists, there are many more legal constraints that affect the way Law Enforcement goes about trying to prevent. Do you see these people, though, as sort of lone wolves . How should we see somebody like the el paso shooter . I dont like the term lone wolf. And i think in a vast majority of these cases, whether its jihaddies or White Nationalists, there is a network out there trying to promote this, thats interacting, thats creating a platform. And thats leading people to take the step of carrying out an attack. So theyre not truly lone wolv s wolves, but theyre not part of a hire ar cal organization, and that makes it difficult to detect in advance. What strikes me as a wrong path or an ineffective path to pursue here is something that you hear people like Senate Mcconnell talk about, which is, okay, well give the authorities the ability to, when they hear that someone seems like he or she has bad intentions or is troubled, we wont let that person buy a gun. It feels like you are never going to be able to predict on the basis of somebodys mental state or capacity whether or not theyre going to theyre going to do these things, or there will be thousands and thousands of such people. Is there some way to kind of take preventive action . Well, there is no magic bullet here, if i could use that expression, because it is widely distributed. You are not dealing with people who are very cohesive and where there is a lot of activity that can be picked up. So you are looking for very small traces. A lot of times, to be honest, and i think we saw this with the mother of the el paso shooter, sometimes there is a Family Member or a friend who begins to see something a little worrisome, and we need to give them an opportunity to raise their hand and, as they say, see something, say something. And part of that is not just to respond with Law Enforcement, but to use deprogramming and social psychology as a way of offer ramping people when theyre beginning to step down the road of being violent, but they havent quite crossed the line yet. So thats one set of solutions. Another set of solutions is obviously better background checks, being a little bit more thorough in terms of avoiding the loopholes that we currently have in the law. And yet another is restricting certain kinds of tools. For example, magazines that have 100 rounds of ammunition might be banned. Or, for example, body armor. Its not clear to me why ordinary civilians ought to be buying body armor. You dont use it when youre hunting. So maybe we ought to look at that as well. It does seem like the big anomaly here in terms of america having so many of these mass shootings, i mean, hundreds compared to other countries that have one or two, if that. Many countries have had zero for year after year, is the fact that the United States with 5 of the worlds population has 50 of the worlds firearms. And, you know, i presume we have the same number of mentally disturbed people as in europe. We have the same number of we play the same violent video games as places like japan. I think when you are dealing with high capacity weapons, automatic weapons or even assault weapons, obviously that does create the possibility that in the wrong hands you can do a lot more damage. So i dont know to what extent this is a question of availability of high capacity just a cultural difference, but, as i say, there is not likely to be a single solution. And we ought to take in all of the above approach to try to identify people who are presenting a risk and also reduce the number of tools that allow them to really have high impact attacks.

But despite all of the headlines, its still misunderstood. El paso and other attacks are seen as isolated acts of hatred by loners, but really theyre part of a coherent movement with a lot of history, which includes the Oklahoma City bombing that killed 168 people. A professor from the university of chicago has studied this movement extensively. Her fascinating book is called bring the war home. Professor, welcome. Thank you very much for having me. So in your work, what strikes me as the sort of most important point that we should understand is that these are not isolated attacks by loners who are motivated by a particular anonymous against a particular group. But there is something broader tieing it altogether. Absolutely. The movement that i study is called the white power movement. It is a group of neonazis, klansmen that came together to use a strategy called leaderless resistance. That strategy is essentially what we think of today as cell style terror or the idea that people are working in small groups without communication with other small groups and without direct orders from other leadership. While that strategy was implemented to stymy prosecution, the larger legacy has been to stymy public understanding of this as a social movement, such that we dont connect these acts of violence into one common story. And what is animating them . What is it that they are reacting to . What is it that they fear . So white power activists understand a whole nexus of issues, such as immigration, abortion, racial integration and other issues as being fundamentally about threats to white reproduction. What i mean by that is in order to sort of continue a majority white nation, these activists believe they have to continue to produce white children. And in order to do that, they seek to sort of support a series of social issues that, to then, are tan mount to racial ie nighlation if they succeed. They oppose abortion not only because of a religious doctrine, but because they think it will reduce the number of white infants. They oppose immigration because it will overrun white people. It all comes to this idea of an imminent apock lippic state of emergency and this real sense of you are aga urgency. You see there is a familiarity and a similarity to other such white supremacist documents . Certainly. And let me just start by explaining why i think it is appropriate to use the word manifesto. This has been getting a lot of attention this week. But to me it is a genre of historical writing. It doesnt mean to exalt it among the great Literary Works of our time, but simply to recognize it as an expression of ideological and political meaning. It is an instrument designed to give a particular kind of a rational for action and its designed to call others to action in much the same way. If you remember nothing else about white power activism, the one critical thing to understand in the wake of the shootings at el paso is that acts of Mass Violence are not supposed to be the end point of white power terrorism. The idea is, like the shooting in el paso, or the bombing in oklahoma stay, we could go on with examples, these acts are designed to awaken other people and bring people into this political belief. And the end goal being the overthrow of the government of the United States, correct . Thats right. And, i mean, when we talk about that, it doesnt mean that every person in this movement has that goal. But certainly the imaginary adopted by many in the movement has to do with a white homeland and ethnic cleansing and the construction of a white nation on the soil that currently is held by the United States. Its important to remember that the nation at the heart of White Nationalism is not the United States. Its the air yan nation, a white policy opposed to the interests of the United States. But this question of how could they do it is really important and it is one the history can shed light on. We find in the turner diaries, which is also a manual for the movement, the answer to that question. It lays out this program by which these acts of gorilla violence and mass attacks can, these activists believe, awaken other people to the imminent danger to the white race posed by many of the social issues we have just talked about. To them, this threat is so selfevident that all they need to do is awaken people and white people will rise up in race war and bring about this radical change to the world. I think having that serious understanding of how these people believe it could work and the frame that theyre acting in is an absolutely necessary first step to a better response to white power violence. Professor, pleasure to have you on. Thank you. Thank you. Next on gps, if anyone had any doubt that the u. S. And china are in an economic war, those doubts were dashed this week.

Trump threatened a large new round of tariffs. Beijing said it would stop buying American Farm products. The u. S. Treasury secretary labeled china a currently manipulator. So who is going to win this war . Is anyone . Joining me now is Larry Summers who served as the nations 72nd secretary of the treasury. Larry, welcome. How worried are you that this could spiral downward into something worse . I think were probably at the riskiest moment for the american and World Economy that we have been at since the financial crisis. That doesnt mean were going to have another crisis of that magnitude. That would be a very, very great surprise. But it does mean, if you look at the way markets have behaved, the bond markets, if you look at measures of business sentiment, that were probably at the riskiest moment in terms of recurrence of recession that we have been in since the financial crisis and some of that has to do with how long the recovery has gone on and the inevitable buildup of imbalances, but a great deal has to do with the uncertainty and risks created by what i think is a rather foolish trade conflict. A lot of people say, well, look, maybe we are suffering, but the chinese are suffering more. Is that is that true in terms of the balance of power . So first i dont think the question of whether our sadism is bigger than our mass kiss m with this conflict is the right question. The right question is, are we advancing american interests . I dont think there is any question that American Workers are going to be poorer, American Companies are going to be less profitable and the American Economy is going to be worse off because of the course were on. We are losing very substantial amounts in terms of uncertainty, reduced investment, reduced job creation for the sake of benefits that are very unlikely to be a substantial magnitude. You pointed out, ive pointed out, all the evidence is that when you engage in these tariff strategies you spend more than a Million Dollars a year per job saved and probably ultimately when you trace it all through, you destroy more jobs than you create. It will hurt china . Yeah, it will hurt china. Perhaps it will even hurt china is bit more than it hurts us. Although, china doesnt have an election coming up 15 months from now. And, so, i wonder whether they might not have greater capacity to absorb pain. But i dont think this is an attractive strategy at all, and i think it also risks our National Security in a quite profound way because it fuels and encouraging chinese antiamericanism, and it makes us seen as a less reliable partner around the world, which is problematic for our various security alliances. The background condition for this, larry, is that a lot of people feel that china essentially took away a large number of the industrial jobs, the manufacturing jobs in the United States through unfair trade practices. And, so, we have to stand up to them in some way. There is a lot of sympathy on both sides of the aisle. Democrats, as you know, say that. Is that fundamentally true . Did china steal Americas Industrial base . No. When its stated that boldly is much more wrong than right. The key point, fareed, is that people see the costs and they dont see the benefits. Yes, there are imports from china and, yes, they sometimes displace u. S. Jobs. But many of those imports dont reflect any kind of illegal trade practice. They simply reflect the fact that china was able to grow and make its economy more productive and more competitive. But the more fundamental point is, yes, there is job destruction, but there is also job creation, because we export to china and american producers are more come pettive when they have lower cost inputs. American workers have more spending power because they pay less, for example, for toys and other goods when were able to import them from china. Job creation because of the capital that has flowed into the United States and held Interest Rates down from china. And the studies that dont just look at one part of the picture, the import job loss, but also look at the job creation benefits find that its been pretty substantial and probably comparable to the job loss.

Now for our what in the world segment. I think the world has become desensitized to the war in yemen, a conflict that has killed more than 90,000 people, left millions at the brink of famine and the worlds worst human tear crisis. How desensitized . Well, the Biggest Development squeaked by last month with relatively little notice. Im talking about the news the united emirates is withdrawing from the country, turning its back on the Saudi Led Coalition more than four years into the war. Saudi arabia is the public face of the war, but its efforts have mostly been through the air, launching strikes on rebels. It is the uae, saudis closest regional ally that fought on the ground and to devastating effect. 5,000 soldiered trained 90,000 troops according to the new york times. The emirates have been responsible for every major ground advancement made in yemen, resting battlegrounds. Thats because the uae, a tiny country with about a million citizens has the most Effective Army in the arab world. Among gulf countries it has unparalleled Counter Terrorism capabilities. So why did the uae decide to largely abandon the war . Earlier this year the u. S. Congress upset over the war in yemen passed a bipartisan resolution that sought to end u. S. Involvement in that war. Later it passed resolutions banning arms sales to saudi arabia and the uae. These were significant moments. The u. S. Has long supported the war. But anger over the murder of the y journalist has led to increased scrutiny that the un has said may involve war crimes. Trump vetoed those attempts by congress to intervene, but as steven cook points out, the uae wants to maintain its alliance with the u. S. In the long term, and trump will not be the president forever. The emirates made a decision. Get out of an unwinnable war before key elites in washington sour on them. What will be the effect of this . Well, saudi arabia could take this opportunity to negotiate a peace treaty and get out of a war. Unfortunately, that probably wont happen. A major source of pressure was the prospects of forces squeezing the supply lines where much of the last years fighting took place before the un negotiated a shaky cease fire. They supply most of the countrys food and aid is a source of tax value for the rebels. But as knights of the Washington Institute points out, with the emirates leaving, the threat is vastly diminished and so is the pressure on the rebels so sit down with saudi aarabia. The war could become a forever war, unable to win and unable to admit defeat. The collateral damage, of course, will remain the same, the suffering of millions of yemen people.

But my next guest made a deep dive into the subject and has some scientific answers. Last week i sat down with daniel. He wrote when, the scientific secrets of perfect times. Thanks for having me. The biggest question i think people will have is when am i most productive as a human being. Yeah. There is a lot of Good Research on that in a number of different fields. Our cognitive abilities, our brain power does not remain consta constant. It changes over the course of the day. It changes in material ways, and it changes in predictable ways. One of the things that, when looking at this point of a cycle, its led you to make a personal decision about when to go to a doctor, when to get a medical procedure. Explain this. This is incredible. Basically, in my family, no one is permitted to go to an important doctor appointment or hospital visit in the afternoon. The evidence is overwhelming. Anesthesia errors, four times more likely at 3 00 p. M. Than at 9 00 a. M. Hand washing at hospitals, which is the first line of defense against hospitalacquired infections, massive drop in the afternoons. Doctors are more likely to prescribe unnecessarily antibiotics in the afternoon, opioids in the afternoon. Doctors find half as many poll lips in morni ining exams than afternoon exams. It doesnt matter what time of day we do things or interact with others. What the Research Tells Us across literally 2,000 fields is it matters because our brain power is not static over the course of the day. When you know that, you can make different decisions about what you do and about your interactions with others. All right. Social life. Yeah. Love, friendships, what does timing tell us about all that . There the evidence is a little bit less locked down. But we can look at marriage and Research Showing that marriages are more likely to last when people get married, first of all, after they have education. No matter what the education level is. There are a lot of education affects on marriage, bigtime especially now. People who are educated are far less likely to get divorced. Completing your education. There is also some slight age differences. So you are more likely to stay married if you get married between 25 and 32. Now, it doesnt mean if you get married at age 33, you will get divorced. But there are some effects on that. The most intriguing stuff i have seen about the social element, and you talk about this, is when youre happy in your life in terms of the life cycle. Oh, sure, yeah. Explain that. There is really powerful research. Whats interesting about this is this research is very international. We have seen this effect in Something Like 60 or 70 different countries. One of the things we see is a u shaped curve of wellbeing, you see people are fairly happy in their 20s and 30s, a little less happy in their 40s. Mid50s, thats the bottom, you and i. Then when people age, they get actually happier. So counter intuitively people say someone who is 50 is typically less happy than someone who is 70. Whats interesting about that research and its hard to figure out why. Researchers have found this pattern in multiple countries. If i were to show you the start for the u. S. , france and the uae, you might be able to tell the difference. The point thats intriguing to me is that people get really quite happy or satisfied in their 70s. Right. Explain why. Yeah. Its interesting. Its hard to lock down exactly the reasons why. We can look at some Research Like the research at stanford who has shown if you look at the size of peoples friendship networks over their age, starts small, expands and then after about age 60, friendship networks, the size of them just decline significantly, which seems officially like a sad story. But what happens is that people actually make affirmative decisions to eliminate some of their friends, and they focus only on the core group of people. And when they focus, they have fewer friends, but closer friends. Thats one of the things that helps boost wellbeing later in life. Daniel, always a pleasure. Thanks for having me.

You heard earlier in our show how President Trump doubled down with his tough talk on china, labeling that nation a currency manipulator earlier this week. But it is just the latest. Last week the white house followed unsuccessful trade talks by announcing new tariffs. The week before the administration attacked chinas developing status at the world trade organization. It brings me to my question, which is which of the following nations also claim developing country status in the war trade organization south korea, mexico, singapore or qatar . Stay tuned and well tell you the answer. My book of the week is the professor and the madmen, a tale of murder, insanity and the making of the Oxford English dictionary by simon winchester. I just got around to reading this book. It is an unbelievable tale, one that reminds us of extraordinary range, depth and beauty of the english language. It will be a perfect book for the beech. The answer to my gps challenge this week is all of the above. That is right, all four of these countries are considered developing countries in the world trade organization. If that doesnt surprise you, it should. South korea and mexico, like china, are members of the g20, a gathers of the worlds Major Economic power. In terms of gdp per capita, they outlook the United States according to the world bank. But in the wto, developing country is a selfproclaimed title, and that status brings economic benefits like more time to enact new trade rules and allowances for export subsidies. Not all countries use these privileges. Singapore, for example, does not. But President Trump claims china has exploited these benefits for too long. Today is the single largest exporter of goods. Made in china no long applied to trade and textiles. They export more high Tech Products than any other nation. Trump says a compelling argument will more likely succeed if it is seen as reforming the wto rather than trying to destroy it. One of that orangizations main jobs is to regulate and administer trade rules. But now it is threatening unilaterally to set new and trade guidelines if the wto does not change its policy on developing countries in 90 days.
