What the president is going to talk about at the World Economic forum. Reporter one for the general also. General mcmaster, there have been reports in the news recently that leaders authoritarian leaders in other countries particularly Southeast Asia are using one of the president s favorite phrases, fake news, to describe reporting that is not flattering and reflects poorly on their country and reports inconvenient truths, and President Trump has made a point of not publicly talking about things like human rights and freedom of speech, freedom of expression. Is he concerned at all, or are you concerned that the president s rhetoric combined with his silence on these issues is creating a climate where authoritarian leaders feel they have free rein to do what they want and the United States will not speak up publicly . Well, just not true. Just not accurate that the president has enspoken loudly both in words and indeeds and against those who violate human rights. Go to his speech he de

Ceasefire agreement was made during the private meeting following President Trump publicly declaring good things are in store for the u. S. And the kremlin. Moving forward. Joining me is hill editor in chief bob cusack, jill man melchior and Ford Oconnell. Thanks to all three of you for joining us. Jillian, start with you, what did you make of the meeting today and do you think they made as much progress as it seemed . I think the ceasefire is not necessarily an accomplishment. We have to look at what putin has done in the past. We had ceasefires in september 2016, one in february of 2016. In both incidents russia broke the ceasefire.

It is why im pushing very hard and will continue to push until i leave this office and expect the next president to push for a comprehensive Immigration Reform plan that can fix those aspects of the system that are broken so that we remain a nation of laws and nation of immigrants. And thats ultimately, i think, where
