Confidence on where it lands. If you see fins on the nose of any of these things, they may have some sort of guided Precision System inside and thats even scarier. Question, two technical question. I love youre here to help us cover this. The distance, the range, the accuracy is one set of matters. Perhaps the most important sensitivity matters is what they can put on that missile. Whether or not they can bring it in successfully, right. You have the rv, the reentry vehicle. That May 14th Launch did Successfully Reenter the atmosphere. We dont know if they miniaturizeed a Nuclear War Head. We dont know if its small enough to put on the cone on the tip of a missile. Talk to some folks in the pentagon they think maybe, perhaps. Others in the general assessment within the Intelligence Community they havent achieved that yet. Heres the issue, the minute
want to make sure that the United States and south korea and our allies arent threatening the ability of this dynasty to continue leading the country. But, you know, nobody in the administration while this administration has criticized the strategic patience of the Obama Administration and other administrations, no one is talking about Regime Change in north korea. So the signal that the americans are sending to kim jongun is stay there if you want, stop messing around with the Nuclear Weaponry. For north korea they really believe in the long term because theres not actually a formal treaty ending the korean war the belief is in the long term the only thing that guarantees your survival is Nuclear Weapons and you have to demonstrate that you have that capability and they look around the world and see what happened to a lot of other regimes who, frankly, didnt have the capability and they are no longer around. Earlier i was told theres
still a lot of room for sanctions particularly on chinese banks that do business or the chinese which is where north korea gets most of its money for trade. And that the chinese have shown some willingness and they had shown some willingness on the side of the iran deal to not support rogue nations if it meant greater invitation of chinese into the global economy. So theres more pressure to be brought on the chinese . Yes. What weve seen in the last week or so is that the time where you saw President Trump saying were going to give the chinese an opportunity to fix this problem for us, that that tone is changing. You saw beginning this past week some sanctions on chinese bank, on a few chinese citizens. I expect youll see more of that and that this administration will begin look at a wider range of entities who they can go after, and i would also expect
President Trump and president xi will have some very challenging conversations on the sidelines of the g20. On april 17th, when mike pence said the era of strategic patience is over is it useful to put these red lines it is better to change your policy and not set rules or deadlines and people break rules and force your hand. You dont set a red line unless youre certain you intend to enforce it because otherwise you just the United States looks feckless. You have to be very careful with how you describe things and what you say about u. S. Policy because our credibility is really on the line in these situations. Im glad we you had to talk to on this important day. Lindsey ford is with the policy institute. When we come back President Trump will meet with russian president Vladimir Putin on
friday. Plus health care and taxes coming up. Noo introducing the easiest way to get gillette blades text blades to gillette on demand text to reorder blades with gillette on demand.

President trump is gearing up for his first face to face meeting with russian president Vladimir Putin. The white house confirmed two leaders will meet on friday on the sidelines of the g20 economic summit in hamburg, germany. Possible topics of Discussion Syria and ukraine but will the russian interference in the 2016 president ial election come up . Joining me is clint watts National Security analyst and former fbi special agent. Clint, President Trump is one possibly of a handful of americans who has not embraced the idea that russia involved itself in the 2017 election and that poses a big problem because this is a real opportunity. The president of america, the president of russia face to face about the thing that americans are very concerned about. Does he ask him about it . Does he warn him off . No. I dont think hell even bring it up. If he brings it up hes essentially going against his
base. Hes put himself in a bizarre situation where if he brings up meddling, he is going to agitate his base who he denies the russians had anything to do with it. The base thinks its an excusation of the left. The deep state and the left which is what youll hear from the russians. Its important to point that out. The other part he can bring it up too much without also looking at his allies and nato. Hes been very harsh towards germany and angela merkel. They are dealing with the same meddling right now that we dealt with a year ago. If he brings it up in that context hes got his hands tied. And as france in its recent election. The base is 30 of 40 of americans depending on which poll you look at which leave a whole lot of americans who have a valid expectation that the president of the United States will confront the president of russia about this. If he does not what happened . If he does not bring it up it
looks like hes under putins thumb. If he goes in against the strongest leader in the world, doesnt bring it up at all or even gives concessions, russians want their base given back to them. If he gave us that up or coughs it up hes also going to have his hands tied back home. He keeps claiming he wants to deal on syria. He wants russia to ally with us on syria. Russia has played our hand whether its obama or trump now masterfully. They want sanctions on ukraine. They want sanctions lifted on Oil Production and the rest of europe is sitting there saying we want an american president who backs up nato, something that, again, President Trumps embrace of has been tepid. Its a bizarre situation. They never stated it is what we want. What does the trump team think they are getting from all this deal making or negotiations . Is it really just about isis and syria because its going fall. Were in raqqah now. Mosul is done. What do we want from the russians. Why would we deal with the russian physician they just meddled in our election. They havent stated that position. If they havent stated position or going in for meetings or to make a deal the u. S. Will get burped by a smart putin. For all of 20th century and 21st century the u. S. President was always the most powerful man in the world. In these few years many believe the russian president may be more powerful. Whats the benefit of taking this meeting if theres so much uncertainty what President Trump can and is willing to say to Vladimir Putin no one can say what is it. This has been going on since the campaign. Align yourself so strongly and passionately at times with
Vladimir Putin when you cant clearly state what it is thats good for america. We always talk about America First. What is America First about this . They just meddled in our elections and we didnt do anything about it. Were still debating if it happened if youre President Trump. Thats one place they are in the same place. Put said maybe some russians interfered, patriotic russians but it wasnt at the direction of the russian government and President Trumps response tends to be maybe some russians interfered, maybe a 400 pound guy, maybe somebody else, they are on the same page strangely on the surface on the same page but interestingly enough some of the stories that came out last week from the Wall Street Journal potentially spokesman on the edges of the Trump Campaign reaching out trying to find out if Russian Hackers got into Hillary Clintons lost email. If you dont believe the russians did anything to do with it why would you reach out to them to find those emails. Its a double standard. They will get burned. What will happen President Trump wont come away with a big deal, he wont look like he has the upper hand with putin and then this whole how was cards will collapse. Always good to see you. Thank you for coming in on a holiday. President trumps meeting with putin comes as his legislative agenda appears to be stalled on capitol hill. I feel like ive said that before. Senate republicans are trying to figure out if theres way to move forward with their Obamacare Repeal and replace which was pulled because it didnt have support to pass. Republicans are hoping to take action soon on tax reform, infrastructure, on energy, on other issues. Joining me is Washington State democratic congressman who is a member of the judiciary and budget committees. Thank you for joining us. Happy 4th. Nothing seems to happen until this Health Care Bill gets
sorted out. It looks like it will be the other. The other depending on who you talk to may be some reaching across the aisle to democrats to say we cant seem to pass this bill without democratic help. Do you think that enough democrats are open to rewriting a Health Care Bill that would involve the repeal of obamacare but get you farther than this senate bill would get us . Democrats have always been ready to make the Affordable Care act better. Theres numerous amendments introduced and bills that have been introduced into the house but republicans have been focused on repealing without a Replacement Plan and thats what you see in the senate. That wont fly with the American People. You tell americans they will have 22 million of them cut off from health care and, you know, you think about cutting medicaid. Medicaid pays 30 or 40 of our Nursing Homes across the country. 60 of disabled children depend on medicaid. This is a travesty of a bill. Were willing to work on making
the Affordable Care act better, moving in the direction of something that makes Quality Affordable Health Care available to all americans. The question i guess whats the move in that direction . There have been some, getting in trouble on twitter for this, some have said that some democrats have decided that the best road to go down here, given the lack of success that republicans are having with this is nothing. To just leave it, let republicans deal with this. Well, i think, first of all, we have to make sure we protect the care we have for americans across this country. Thats why only 17 of americans like this bill because it doesnt do anything to make their health care better. So thats the first thing we have to do. If the republicans fail at this, then i think we as democrats should come forward and say here are some things that we can do right now to make health care more available and affordable for all americans. One example of that would be
allowing medicare to negotiate Prescription Drug prices. Thats an easy fix that should have democratic and republican support. Let me talk about the trumpputin meeting thats going to happen in theory on friday. If donald trump acknowledges like pretty much all americans have that there was meddling by russians in the election he has no choice but to confront Vladimir Putin with that. Tell him what knees and tell him to stop it. Donald trump does not do that. He doesnt acknowledge that. Either 30 or 40 of americans will be happy with donald trump or 60 will be unhappy. Not to bring up the giant cant be called Elephant In The Room any more. This something that intelligence agencies, American People across the country recognize, have seen happen and donald trump as president of the United States
should be showing his power if hes going to have a meeting with Vladimir Putin bringing this up front and center and saying we are going to take some steps around this. But, of course, he is not even complying with some of the requirements of the investigation thats going on and hes being investigated for obstruction of justice. Its a sad day hell take this meeting and not bring up this incredibly important issue that affects the american democracy and integrity of our elections. Thank you so much for joining us today. Ine few moments ill talk to a congressman from new york about the g20 summit and the question that made Venus Williams break down at a wimbledon Press Conference. So when i need to book a hotel to me tharoom,vacation. I want someone that makes it easy to find what i want. Booking. Com gets it, with great summer deals up to 40 off. Visit booking. Com. Booking. Yeah a trip back to the dthe doctors office, mean just for a shot. But why go back there, when you can stay home. With Neulasta Onpro . Strong chemo can put you at risk of serious infection, which could lead to hospitalizations. In a key study, neulasta reduced the risk of infection from 17 to 1 . A 94 decrease. Applied the day of chemo, Neulasta Onpro is designed to deliver neulasta the next day, so you can stay home. Neulasta is for certain Cancer Patients receiving strong chemotherapy. Do not take neulasta if youre allergic to neulasta or Neupogen Filgrastim . Ruptured spleen, sometimes fatal as well as serious lung problems, allergic reactions, kidney injuries, and Capillary Leak Syndrome have occurred. Report abdominal or shoulder tip pain, Trouble Breathing or allergic reactions to your doctor right away. In patients with sickle cell disorders, serious, sometimes fatal crises can occur. The most common side effect is bone and muscle ache. So why go back there . If youd rather be home, ask your doctor about Neulasta Onpro. Before we had this confirmation. Colonel jack the concept its an icbm that could travel 4,000 miles and hit the continental United States does that change your analysis of this . Well, it does. We knew before it could travel about 4100 miles. Hans nichols did the calculations and said how far it could go. But it means Something Else now. It means that they are well on the path of getting a weapon that can get all the way to the continental United States, the lower 48. Not just going the 500 miles, the definition says, getting out of the atmosphere and reentering it. Hans nichols also had a very interesting observation too about reentry because whats really important is to able to control the war head once it reenters the Atmosphere Site can be targeted towards a particular place. The last one they fired, not the one yesterday, but the one earlier, a couple of weeks ago
did not have fins as it a terminal guidance system. We dont know if this one did either, but its very big. Its a very big deal they have an icbm. The next big deal as i was talking to hans about is you fly a missile somewhere, can it be accurate . Can it be targeted . Kit reenter properly. And most importantly can they put a Nuclear War Head on it . The last one is most important. If they can put a Nuclear War Head on it and it doesnt have to be all that accurate threat of being able to deliver a Nuclear Weapon the fact that they can deliver a Nuclear Weapon to the continental United States is really scary enough. Forget about we cant forget about the fact they are threatening the area in east asia, west asia, our allies particularly south korea and japan, but its really important now that we have some sort of plan to blunt the development,
north koreas development, convince them that they shouldnt continue on this path. But weve said earlier that the north korean government is a continuing criminal enterprise. Their sole focus is so maintain power. Hold on to power. Not relinquish any ground whatsoever and the longer they are permitted to continue doing what they are doing the more difficult it will be to dissuade them from doing Something Else. We need not just fortitude on our side we need to generate support among our allies particularly china. So far china has not been forthcoming, has not been particularly helpful. I think it will get more recalcitrant unless he put the squeeze on china as well. Thank you for joining me. North koreas latest Missile Launch is raising the stake for
President Trumps second foreign trip. The provocation will dominate his discussions with leaders of japan, south korea and china. The main event is expected to be prurps first meeting with Vladimir Putin on friday. Joining me now is congressman lee zeldin. Congressman, good to see you. Ill get to russia in a minute because i want to continue this conversation on north korea. How do you think the u. S. Should be handling it at this point . Clearly north korea is increasing its provocation level. Clearly they have been warned by the United States that the era of strategic patience that obama maurgs and previous administrations had is over. The north koreans cant have the ability to deliver a Nuclear War Head to the United States and we use the principle of diplomacy, Military Economics and we need to consider all
options being on the table but with a preference to diplomacy and economics to ramp up the pressure on the north koreans. Weve looked to china as being in the strongest position to help with other options other than military because they can krip tell north korean economy very quickly because how much they rely on the chinese. The chinese, the japanese, the south korean, there certainly is a preference on the part of the United States you see that leadership in that region. Its not just north korea having the ability to deliver a Nuclear War Head its Human Rights Violations that are taking place. Its the Cyber Warfare that north korea engages in. So theres a throat talk about. If you look at diplomacy,
military and economics i was speak to a former obama treasury official in the last hour who said theres a lot more space to squeeze china and chinese banks on their dealings with north korea which does more than 90 of its business with china. The idea that donald trump tweeted that thanks for trying china but it hasnt worked she says isnt true. Theres more to be done. Theres a lot more that china is able to do. It was a positive development when china earlier this year said they were going to stop importing coal. Its worth pointing out china imported a whole lot of coal before they made that decision. But there is a tremendous amount of space and north koreans rely so much on that relationship with china that if china cities they want to get serious whether its financial systems, whether its cutting off additional materials that they are securing from the north koreans, that type of pressure by the way
on Information Front the north koreans, the people that live in the country they look up at kim jongun like hes largerthanlife and they dont believe that their troubles, their ills as north koreans is due to oppression from their own government because of the information that they are coming in contact with. China can help out on information campaign. Theres so many tools. Unlike iran where the elections may not be free and fair but north koreas elections are completely for show. Completely. Ill move on to another quick topic. There are two kinds of people in america. Those who believe that the russians interfered in the 2016 election and those who dont. President trump, i dont know where he sits. He seems to sit in the latter category and dragged a little bit over to this other side. Where are you on this . The russians did meddle in our elections and its important that the president utilizes an
yeah. I dont know whether or not hes planning to or whether he will, and ive been speaking up for a long time before even the Cyber Attacks took place during last years election that russia san adversary to the United States and that hasnt changed. They are an adversary. So while you are hopefully looking at ukraine, syria, isis, north korea, nato, theres a lot to talk about, obviously, thats unrelated to this cyber component. I would strenuously plead that we are seeing those opportunities like what well see at the g20 to talk about the cyber piece because north korea, russia, iran, some of these other nations, they not only have caused a lot of damage but they have a capability through Cyber Warfare to cause a lot of damage. Good to talk to you. Happy fourth of july. Lee zel different n is a republican congressman from new york.

On friday she posted on her Facebook Page im devastated and heartbroken by this accident. My heart felt condolences go out to the family and friends of engineer ro jerome. 78yearold jerome was injured and died two weeks later. Williams is now being sudden by family. In a Statement Williams attorney called the crash an unfortunate accident and said venus expresses her deepest condolences to family who lost a loved one. According to the police report, williams was at fault for violating the rightofway. She was not issued any tickets at the time and police say there was no evidence williams was under the influence of drugs or alcohol or distracted by a cell

Hell host a picnic with military families this afternoon right before a fireworks viewing. Thanks too last minute budget deal on monday night that ended a Government Shutdown new jersey celebrating july 4th with
state parks and beaches open for business. Governor christies visit to a beach drew criticism but the governor said Doesnt Matter to him. I think ive proven over the last eight years i dont care about political optics. I care about right and wrong. I think ive proven over the last eight years i have a choice between my family and political optics and ill pick my family. Governor christie has a 15 approval straight lowest of any governor thichbt of Quinnipiac Polling which goes back about 20 years. Msnbc adam reese joins me from liberty park in jersey city. Whats fallout from all of this . Reporter i can tell you the good news is the beaches are open, the parks are open here, but many are still angry about those photographs that went viral. The governor with his family, lounging on the beach, a beach that, in fact, was ordered closed by him. Many beaches and state parks for
last several days closed. We were out here yesterday. People by the dozens coming up in their cars being turned away by state troopers, people with families, all kinds of, you know, people who wanted to go recreate and not loud to do it for the past three days. The governor said hell remain defiant. Hes doing the right thing for the people of the state of new jersey. He was fighting for more money to fight opioid abuse. He said hell continue that fight. Hell do whats right. If its between politics and family hes always going choose family and in fact i can tell you hes headed back out to the beach today but probably a beach that is open to the general public. Back to you. Still hes not giving up. Thanks very much. When we come back a question you hear all time. What happened to the Political Center . Heres another question you may not have concerned did the Political Center as we think we know it ever really exist . N how . We mean what can we do . We mean its our turn. To do our part. To serve you, for all youve done to serve us. Pretty safe to say the election of donald trump has changed a lot of things including how were likely to look at future elections. The conventional wisdom used to be get your base and then move to the middle. Do political candidates need to move to the center to win. To talk more about this, a writer for the daily intelligence and a long time gop staffer, former Communications Director for evan mcmullens 2016 president ial run. Welcome to boston you. Thanks for being here. Eric, you said pundits need stop insifgt up insisting upon the centrality of the center. Thats correct. Theres this idea that the political speck stlamd out between liberals and conservatives and then you have
the mushy middle the moderates whose views are in between democratic and republican platforms. Thats not how the country exists. Most voters dont have could her rent ideologies. They are conservative on some issue, liberal on other issues. The Consensus Positions on individual issues are often not at all at the center. For example there was this 2014 study by uc berkeley that found, they surveyed voters on a variety of issues giving several different options from conservative to extremely liberal with moderate position in the middle. Only two issues was the Consensus Position. On marijuana the Consensus Position in the United States at that time was fully was legalization. On immigration more people picked mass deportation. On taxes the third most popular option was 1 million Tax Everything at 100 that was four
times more popular than the Republicans Party position. He might be talking about you when eric is talking about people who dont wake up and label themselves something and think thats what they are. You are a republican. Thats right. You supported marco rubio. You said that if donald trump becomes the nominee you might vote for hillary clinton. And you worked for evan mcmullen. Sure. Im a millennial and i have to say right out of the gate i know what we get characterized as. Were indecisive and sufficient. Whats becoming true and more evident were just reflecting the vufs most americans nowadays. Most americans are not dealing tethered to a party any more except when we get down typewriter and people now like Vice President mike pence say come home to the party. I remember being in utah this past fall when i was working with mcmullen. Maybe thats a better choice. I know what im get offering here and i dont know what im getting from an independent. However, you know, i think whats happened in november of this last year maybe leads thise leads americans to think people are on two extremes. Maybe we need to come back to the center. Let me ask you this, indecisive. The Research Suggests that and one can be decisive about their opinions they dont consistently fall on one side of the political spectrum. When you ask them they can often take very strong views. Whether or not they feel very strongly about that opinion is a different matter. The other thing, the other reason why it doesnt really exist is because they idea any with the party more than with
positions and issues. Why . Because become republicans or democrats, they didnt go to a town hall meeting. Everyone said yes. I agree 65 of the time with democrats that youre born to a family or community. For most people you then adopt the positions. The month before donald trump declared his candidacy. One year later the republican nominee turned out to be a person that posed free trade. So you take your positions from the leaders. So to that point there was a time. There may not have been a center but there was a time when Political Parties reted large tents. They say you i sort of share about 60 . 40 of me doesnt. That used to be okay. Thats what seems to have disappeared. Without a doubt. It is a point i have been working to make over five to ten years now. A big part of my clear has been showing we can be prochoice and pro life at the same time. I come from a family where my family on my dads side escaped from you gsh when i saw them for that it was the american way. In the past five to ten years i found fellow republicans who were less accepting of the fact
that i may be pro life for myself and i am pro choice for other women. I can believe in the free come to marry. We Cherish Freedom before anything else. Thats what im trying to get through. With the election of donald trump and rhetoric of last year we have seen that really take a toll on people and fewer and fewer people are thinking that the Republican Party is a place where all values are accepted. We can have diverging thoughts. Interesting discussion. I would like to continue it at some point. I have run out of time for this particular one but i think it might be a central discussion. I really appreciate the two of you taking to have the discussion with maine stick around. Ill be right back. Thats it . Yeah.

this is a live look at the white house. That is actually live. The president in about two hours is going to welcome military families for a picnic and fireworks. Well see if he has anything to say about Breaking News that the north Korean Missile test was an intercontinental ballistic missi missile. We have been talking about this missile test. Tell me whats new that we know about north korean capabilities. Whats in you part of this . The range. The fact that it is 4,000 miles. It puts alaska within range. It gives you a sense of the power behind it. What officials are focused on is
whether or not there is successful reentry. Did it go as high as it did and Successfully Reenter. They will be asking how much of a time line did they have before this launch . It is liquid fuel. You can usually see them gassing it up. That will be the question, whether or not they saw it beforehand and how many were out there. Initially they didnt know what was in the tubes. They may have just built the tubes. What do you mean . With satellites you see them gassing it up . When they have aerial intelligence they are never really clear on how they know
what they know. You could see it from an aerial vehicle, a drone of some sort. I dont know whether thats Satellite Imagery or not. Normally it would give us a good lead them. There is less of a lead time with mobile launchers these are mobile but some times they give us a hint they are seeing something. They are saying we are seeing fuelling going on. You always know so much about this kind of stuff. He is at the pentagon and he will be following this. Well continue to stay on this story and give you updates about what information we are getting about that north core rokorean launch. Well see if President Trump
