For our regional allies and called for serious consequences. Joining me now is richard haass. Once again, im pleased to have him back at this table. Welcome. How serious is this . Richard this is arguably the Number One National Security Threat that faces the United States over the next five years, possibly facing the next president of the United States. Charlie why . Mostrd this is the closed, most militarized society on the face of the earth. It has committed, in some ways, a slowmotion genocide against its people. They have posed a military threat for decades, i should know. The division at the 30th parallel, now, on top of it all, youve got a fast growing nuclear program, not just nuclear material, but as you said, Ballistic Missiles that could launch from a number of platforms, from land or from submarines.

Or whatever, i think north korea should be at the top of those issues, and i think we need a policy commensurate with the emerging threat. By the way, its not just a threat against us, its against our partners and allies in the region, some of whom would be interested in Going Nuclear if they see the threat unattended to. Rose also this evening, senators cory booker and tim scott, two africanamerican senators, the first time two elected africanamerican senators have served in this United States senate in u. S. History. They talk about the africanamerican museum of history and culture which opens in september in washington. I hope that one of the beauties of this of being here will be an understanding and appreciation of the depth of the pain, agony and tragedy of slavery. I hope that the suffering from decade to decade to decade to decade wi
That, then dont show up. Sandra well have more on the situation on the ground in portland coming up. First negotiations turn sour on capitol hill. White house officials and democrats failing to hash out their differences over the next round of Coronavirus Relief taking to finger pointing as President Trump considers taking executive action. Good morning, im sandra smith. Im mike emanuel. Great to be with you. Sandra good morning. Both sides painting a bleak picture after their facetoface meeting with no deal in place. Nancy pelosi says the gops proposal doesnt go far enough. Mutschin threatened to stop the negotiations if democrats dont meet halfway. We have said the republicans and president dont understand the gravity of the situation and certainly just when they set a skinny proposal it was anorexic and it was not to meet the needs of the American People. The compromises that we put forth are significantly greater than the compromises from what we saw from the other side of the nego
To say a lot of pomp and pageantry and crowds that as chad pergram was just telling bill hemmer virtually nonexistent in this new world we call coronavirus world. They will be addressing the public in about a half an hour. In the meantime, Jacqui Heinrich on whats at stake as these two get ready to introduce themselves, right . Hey there, neil. Well, the Biden Campaign brought in close to 50 grand a minute in the four hours after senator Kamala Harris was announced as the running mate. Total of 10. 8 million that comes close to the Campaign Fundraising record for a single event 11 million back in june when former president barack obama and biden hosted a virtual event.

So i i understand the context and i think when we took in terms of the context it was a summertime. Mail volume was down. You know . Significantly. So it was not at a we are getting ready for the peak season and election is three months away. It was a good time to start to try to roll this out. Again, the request was just run your trucks on time. Put a plan to run your trucks on time. Okay . I mean, the impact, the impact is probably about for that, because if the mail gets processed and the truck leaves, that mail will move on the next truck or the next day. All right . So these long stories of nine days and so forth were not impacted. Those Service Levels if we add one day forgive me. I have limited time. You made a statement before the senate the other day to senator gary peters, you have had no contact with the Trump Campaign during your tenure. Is that correct .
