You dont want to miss a home of all of that coming up this morning. First to top story this hour. North korea lashing out. Rogue regime threat tong detonate a Hydrogen Bomb after President Trump warned during a speech at the un this week that the u. S. Could, quote, totally destroy north korea if it was forced to defend itself. The countrys leader kim jong un responded directly to the threat calling the president , quote, mentally deranged u. S. Dotered. Weakminded or foolishold person. Kim also threatened action adding this, mia now thinking hard of what response he could have expected when he allowed such words to tip off his tongue gnaw financial sanctions against the north specifically siting citing the nuclear threat. Does not respect own citizens or the sovereignty of other nations. Our executive order will cut resources that will stop efforts. Maria those financial sanctions were significant against north korea. Pete what do you make of this of this escalating war . A very important week at the un. President trump doing what previous administrations refused to do. Only going after the chinese banks that allow this regime to stay afloat will undercut them and President Trump through executive orders say, if you want to do business with north korea, chinese central banks, you will not be doing business with the United States of america. They cant make a decision, they cant cut off their ability to do business with us, therefore stops ability to to support kim jong un regime. The only way short of military force is cutting maria will they cut funding of Nuclear Program . Pete a guy who is happy to starve his people. Brian north korea over the past decade has got very good at black market trade, they found ways around sanctions time and time again. A strong move. I hope it works. You to see over time. North korea has played this game many times before. Its not a huge economy. Doesnt need a lot to sustain Nuclear Program. Dagen treasury will be able to target a variety of Different Industries related to north korean trade, textile, seafood exports, technology, shipping networks because its been reported that those industries actually funnel money back into the nuclear and Missile Program in north korea. But a lot of this will rely on how much europe, for example, and all of the trading partners who are involved in north korea and trade really enforce this because thats what did work with iran as europe being on board in terms of cutting off investment and capital flows. Pete also the credible threat of military force when President Trump stands up there and says, we will utterly destroy you, they hear that. Without that, they will never get any moves elsewhere. They believe that President Trump might do something. Maria what about the pushbacks from kim jong un . What about him saying that hes going to going to exceed expectations . Pete if he can get a Nuclear Weapon thats capable of being amounted in icbm, he has the Golden Ticket to preserve his life. Hes trying to get there as fast as he can before any measure will actually stop him from getting there. Dagen when threatening Hydrogen Bomb in the pacific, its not clear that they are at the point where they can miniaturized a Nuclear Device to put it on the tip of a missile, whether the missile can actually survive reentry, but there was some discussion in one of the pieces i read this morning that they could literally put a Hydrogen Bomb, Nuclear Device on a ship and send it out in the pacific and detonate it that way if they dont have the missile capabilities. Brian this is whats scary. Its not what hes intending to do but its not what hes not intending to do. Its important to get the sanctions working as quickly as possible because theres always a leg there. Maria the president sat down with south korean countermart counterpart moon jaein. Look what happens after he used one word. He continues to use provocation. Im happy that you used the world deplorable. [laughter] i promised i did not tell him to say that. Thats been a lucky word for me. [laughter] maria well, hes watching. Pete fits much better as it pertains to north korean dictators than people who voted for President Trump. Maria thats truly deplorable. Dagen basket of deplorables. I love Trump Supporters refer to themselves at deplorable jane.

Regulator says that the companys conduct demonstrate lack of Corporate Responsibility in relation to a number of issues which have potential Public Safety and security implications.

We will see if competitors can move in and pick up the slack where it will not be anymore. Brian same story with airbnbs. Maria medallion owners are fuming. Pete of course, they are the gatekeepers to entry. They dont have to pay 1. 3 million to get in up front. You get in cheaper, you can still make money. It is what competition gives us in a free market economy. Maria exactly right. By the way, the taxis should have been technology more effectively the way uber came in and ate their lunch with that.

Facebook, facebook cuts a deal with lawmakers to hand over ads bought by russians to allegedly influence the 2016 election on facebook live. Company founder Mark Zuckerberg revealed hes cooperating with special Counsel Robert Mueller in alleged tampering of the 2016 election. We are actively working with the u. S. Government on ongoing investigations into russian interference. Weve been investigating this for many months now and for a while we had found no evidence of fake accounts linked to russian linked to russian running ads. When we recently uncovered the activity, we provided the information to the special counsel. Maria this comes days after facebook and twitter executives to testify in Senate Intelligence committee on Russian Election meddling next week. Joining us right now james, james, good to see you, thank you so much for joining us. Thanks for having me. Maria what do you think of this . The latest chapter in many, many more to come and big reason for this is Mark Zuckerberg is just been being dragged kicking and screaming into this whole situation and every time they find something out, he denies it and then a couple weeks later, you know, he cant deny it anymore because its been uncovered. Pete is this a recognition that, hey, in hollywood, amongst leftist circles it had to be the russians that hacked our election, he gets to contribute to that by going in front of bob mueller, look at all the fake accounts, theres a political angle to this . There is a political angle and i think we can debate that. I think one thing we cant debate is this guy wants to sell ads any way he can and he doesnt want to spend money while hes doing it and if you want to monitor things, you will have to hire people and thats the last thing this guy wants to do. Thats one of the hugest reasons that this guy is resisting this entire 150,000 in ad spending out of campaign that had 10 billion in ads, most Successful Ad Campaign in history to get this kind of attention, why is this such a big deal. I think youre totally right. The implications is what he doesnt like, the prospect of regulation coming on his company. Maria its coming. Its coming. Dagen he knows that if they dont step up at this point, they facebook and all the other social Media Companies are asking for the government to move in and breathe down their necks, it wasnt just facebook that you could buy ads and people on the left found appalling and then they have been surely behind the curve on fighting terrorism on social networks. One thing after another, Mark Zuckerberg knows, if i dont do something to keep regulators at bay, they are coming in. Maria speaking of regulators, i want to see if regulators are going to come on in on amazon, promising to create even more jobs right now. Amazon already topping 350,000 employees worldwide. Its promising now to create anothe
