Morning. I am jane harman, happy to welcome a lot of experts and smart people and also to give a shout out to the swiss ambassador, a dear friend of ours and interested in history, among other things and i note that we are having swiss day on november 9th. A tradition we have long observed. This event is for our friend bruce bruce hoffman, the very first expert on modern terrorism period. He may have been the very first expert on modern terrorism. He surely was a valuable resource to me when he headed rands office in washington and i was a member of the United States congress. With his bushy beard, at the time, i thought he might be a terrorist and i thought his job at rand might just be cover. Bruce tried to help me create a commission to make recommendations to congress on how to intervene before an individual who is radicalized, having radical views is protected by the First Amendment but how to intervene before a person with radical views turns to violence. Violence is a crime. The

Of the cabinet, which is a little more Public School and a bit more oxbridge than it was and has no more women in it. The other point, made by the institute for government, is about the disruption to business. In nearly every department, half or more of ministers have now been in their post for less than a year. The heart of government, which is the Cabinet Office will have an entirely new team. For what . Was it all worth it . Well, nick watt our Political Editor is here. Lets talk about the handling today, because yesterday it came in for quite a bit of criticism. It has been a tale of two reshuffles, there is a feeling in the cabinet that yesterday, which was about the cabinet, was not one of the Prime Ministers most glorious moments with those ministers resisting her. Ive been hearing scathing words like chaotic, the Prime Minister has no authority, and she cant even sack people. Thats the cabinet.

He walked away from two bipartisan deals, including one today in which i even put the border wall on the table. Reporter the w
There is not enough. Women have good ideas. Tens of thousands marching across city streets. We are not going stop. Im not being to stop till im dead. We will going to change this. Organizers say they are not planning a march for next year yet but the next date they have their eyes on, november 2018. That is the midterm elections. Back to you. Well tonight those huge crowds are starting to head home. If you were in and around San Francisco or oakland today or san jose where any of these marches were taking place no doubt you ran into some extra traffic. Here just about an hour ago Market Street reopened. It wasnt supposed to reopen till about 7 00 tonight but it is once again reopened. There were significant delays as the march was going on. If you are headed back to the east bay tonight or back down to the peninsula you should also expect some heavy traffic on bart. Chopper 5 got these shoeses of shots of people. At this hour they are all starting to head home. Prepare for some crowded
