trade adviser Peter Navarro tonight and Gordon Chang is here to talk about the
showdown with North Korea and China also the Trump agenda building up ahead of
the midterm elections president Trump touting a new string of a legislative
victories you won't hear about in the left-wing national media that could be
driving the Republican resurgence in recent polls and the Dean and Rollins
weighs in on the Trump election year accomplishments and what we can expect
as a result even as a record number of Republicans are resigning from the house
our top story tonight President Trump turning up the heat on China putting
pressure on Beijing to address the massive trade imbalance that it is
enjoyed with the United States for decades this coming within weeks of well
the position of tariffs if the Chinese don't act and the administration today
said that by June 15th it will finalize tariffs on fifty billion dollars of
imports from China the penalties on early 1300 product categories from
medical equipment to machinery could go as high as twenty five percent and by
the end of next month the United States would also impose historic restrictions
on Chinese investment in this country to combat rampant intellectual property
theft that cost the United States as much as sick
hundred billion dollars a year all of this unless the United States and China
can reach a trade deal within two and a half weeks
our first guest tonight continues to fight against China's unfair trade
practices as well as the global is working to subvert the president's
America for his trade policies joining us tonight is Peter Navarro top trade
adviser to the president director of the White House national trade council Peter
good to have you with us who is my friend how are you today well I'm great
and I know you're doing well the imposition of three oh ones I mean this
administration has already done more with the three oh ones and the previous
administration contemplated throughout its two terms in office it's yeah it'll
make me clear about a couple of things here Lou first of all will insist upon
it Peter will insist upon it this president is tough in their
toughest nails on trade and national security in this 301 investigation by
ambassador Robert light hyzer really combines those two things well here's
what we know from his investigation ordered by the president China not only
steals our intellectual property through economic espionage and cyber theft it
also forces the transfer of that technology from American companies on
Chinese soil trying to get access to the market it acquires our companies here in
Silicon Valley and elsewhere from by state-owned enterprises and they also
evade our export control laws they've been silent promises Peter we've been
following them I made in my mind and here's the it is being it is being
adjudicated before the World Trade Organization we're following the cases
and we understand that this audience here is the the reports on that on how
that is progressing and let's understand why these tariffs No let's understand
this I'm going to answer the questions here Peter i will seek answers from
before because i feel somehow irrelevant if you ask both the questions and
provide answers it seemingly III want to Iran Lou go ahead let's start with fifty
billion dollars all right you're talking about a trade relationship that is over
600 billion in the trade relationship between the
two countries these are peanuts and let's be very clear about that this is
peanuts so what will be the impact of these 301 KS if we get to June 15th and
there's no deal so the purpose of the 301 investigation basically is to stop
China from stealing the crown jewels of our technology and the perfect president
a city long for the purpose of the tariffs they're targeted at the
so-called China 2025 industries the artificial intelligence robotics
blockchain technology things like that and the purpose of the tariffs is to
defend our industries here in America that engage in research development
production of those entities as you know Lu China has a predatory model basically
where they come in and they attack our industry solar steel they try to steal
them from us so the purpose of the tariffs they're very targeted and it's
very important the purchasing investment restrictions are to prevent China from
then buying those companies which we nurture here so this 301 investigation
like a laser beam focuses solely on technology it is not a bargaining chip
let me make this clear Lu would it whatever deal what might be made this is
not a bargaining chip these tariffs will be put in place to protect and defend
our technologies as will the investment restrictions we have a whole nother
problem with the 500 billion dollars worth of trade exports the China sends
to us that's where the deal-making needs to be done but these are not trading
this is not bargaining chips Lou this will happen on June 15th for the tariffs
and June 30th for the investment restriction so let's be clear about that
the president is strong and tough and resolute on that he promised this during
the campaign Lou and there's a straight line between here the 301 investigation
which he ordered the results of that 301 investigation the decision he made today
to impose those tariffs and investment restrictions mm-hmm and the ZTE
accommodation to President Xi Alou I want to be clear two things about this
one you want you to be clear we're going to have a wonderful evening
because you're being so clear you remind us each time yes yes
ZTE number one is a law enforcement issue not my lane number two national
security issue indeed indeed it is and Secretary of minuchin and Wilbur Ross
are the ones to talk about with on that issue it is a law enforcement issue and
that's not something I can talk about because of that okay well so you don't
you think that the sanctions should be handled as simply a national security
issue rather than a response and trade the president is obviously reacted as if
it were a trade issue because he's making a personal exemption for ZTE
despite seven years of violating US sanctions with North Korea and with Iran
I I fully understand that Laura but I'm under directions and I'm a good foot
soldier here it's a law enforcement issue its Wilbur Ross and Steve told you
it was a law enforcement officer oh it is I mean that the national security
well how do you start and how you start separating national security from
international trade particularly with the communist country that is right now
being very provocative when we carry out freedom of navigation missions are you
the u.s. Navy does in the South China Sea this is this is becoming a rather
brittle matter isn't it yeah well certainly the freedom of navigation
issue is front and center China is building these large islands artificial
islands that they stole and seized no countries to begin with yes and then the
US Navy is very worried about that the Philippines and all Vietnam they're all
very concerned about and this is what China's doing in the South China Sea so
when you make the distinction with law enforcement I find that curious because
as a man who is written about trade with China and who understands clearly the
national security implications I would think he would be somewhat more
vociferous about how important that I don't want to trade relationship I don't
mind you pressing on this Lou and if I weren't part of the administration
in under orders that this is a law enforcement issue I would be free to
express my views on this but as I say Lou this is a law enforcement issue it's
being dealt with by the Justice Department the Department of Commerce in
a district court and that's all I can say again Wilbur Ross and Steve minuchin
would be the ones that that are the commenters on this they're the ones that
have gone up to Capitol Hill to talk about this and so those would be the
guys they've also gone to Beijing and come back with a really quite an
interesting but checkered result we're sitting here talking about 301's
in the administration's decision to to impose a punishment even as it's being
adjudicated before the World Trade Organization which some would consider
to be a further ambiguity given that the this administration has not been
particularly supportive of the idea of turning over sovereignty to the WTO well
there's only there's only one issue that the 301 is involved in with the WTO and
it's a very interesting one what China does is part of their coercion and
aggression is they force companies American companies the license the worst
transfer of technology its licensing it's it's if say Qualcomm has a chip
that that a said I want to do you know what I understand that you want to run
up the time but I just want you down but you've already succeeded and when I
appreciate your efforts and record to talking with you that what you do buddy
I you take care of yourself Peter Navarro up next president Trump
says Robert Muller's 13 angry Democrats are plotting to subvert our midterm
elections we take that up with Judicial Watch is Chris Farrell right after this
stay with us we're coming right back
she calls it like she sees it from

'Don't toast marshmallows on Hawaii volcano' says US government
Kilauea in the US state of Hawaii is one of the worlds most active volcanoes and recently as captured the worlds attention.
The US Geological Survey has responded to a social media query on whether it is safe to roast marshmallows over a volcanic vent. The answer is no.
Kilauea in the US state of Hawaii is one of the worlds most active volcanoes and it has been very active in recent weeks.
With its red-hot rivers of lava have destroyed dozens of homes on Hawaiis Big Island, with 2,000 people being told to leave their properties.
Jay Furr from Richmond, Vermont asked the US government department whether it would be safe to roast marshmallows over volcanic vents using a long stick. https://ichef. bbci. uk/news/485/socialembed/https://twitter. com/jayfurr/status/1001280299710472192~/news/world-us-canada-44294418.
The US Geological Surveys Volcanoes Twitter account, which posts official updates and information on volcanoes in the US, responded to Mr Furrs query, saying that such an experiment would lead to a bad taste and a pretty spectacular reaction.
They said it would not be safe and advised people to not try to do so. Last week, people in Hawaii were warned about toxic fumes produced when molten rock flows into the ocean.
https://ichef. bbci. uk/news/485/socialembed/https://twitter. com/USGSVolcanoes/status/1001281586476867584~/news/world-us-canada-44294418. Kilauea is an extremely active volcano and its present eruption began 35 years ago,.
A growth of volcanic activity in recent weeks has meant that it has quite literally been erupting in peoples backyards. Only one serious injury has been reported, after a man was hit by projectile molten rock as he sat on his balcony.

North Korea, U.S. in multiple preparatory meetings for summit - Duration: 2:52.
Our starting point is once again Pyongyang and Washington's multi-pronged diplomatic
activities.
All possibly designed to assist with preparations for the summit between their leaders, originally
set to be held on June 12 in Singapore.
Moments ago, U.S. President Donald Trump tweeted North Korea's former intel chief Kim Yong-chol
... is heading to New York Lee Ji-won updates us on the rapid developments.
North Korea and the United States seem to be getting closer to finally announcing that
the first ever Pyongyang-Washington summit *will in fact be held.
The Vice Chairman of the North's Workers' Party, Kim Yong-chol , who is also in charge
of the regime's United Front Department, arrived in Beijing Tuesday morning to fly to the U.S.
According to South Korea's Yonhap News, citing sources in China, Kim's name is on the list
of people taking a flight to New York on Wednesday at 1 p.m.
Sources in China say Kim will meet with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
This would be the third time for the two diplomats to meet.
Also in Beijing with Kim was the official in charge of North American affairs at Pyongyang's
foreign ministry, Choe Kang-il.
The two initially booked a New York-bound flight leaving Tuesday afternoon but postponed
it to the next day.
The change in schedule was likely because of a meeting arranged between Kim and Chinese
officials at the airport on Tuesday.
The same sources say Kim and Pompeo are expected to put together the final pieces for the summit,...
and reaffirm the North's efforts to denuclearize and the States' effort to guarantee Pyongyang's
security.
Meanwhile late Monday, an eight-member delegation from the North is said to have landed in Singapore,
according sources there, to meet their U.S. counterparts.
The North Koreans are led by the Secretariat of the regime's State Affairs Commission,
Kim Chang-son, a top logistics and protocol official.
The U.S. team, consisting of some 30 officials from the White House and State Department,
led by Deputy White House Chief of Staff Joe Hagin, arrived in the Southeast Asian city-state
earlier that day.
Although the exact time of the meeting has not been disclosed, the two sides are expected
to meet as early as Tuesday, to discuss logistics, protocol and specific venues and itineraries
for Kim Jong-un and President Trump.
Representatives of the U.S. and North Korea are also to resume their meeting at the inter-Korean
border village of Panmunjom on Wednesday.
Those delegations are led respectively by former U.S. ambassador to South Korea and
former nuclear negotiator Sung Kim,... and North Korea's Choe Son-hui, who serves as
the regime's vice foreign minister and is a former director of her ministry's North
American department.
The talks began on Sunday but, according to diplomatic sources, they did not convene on
Monday and Tuesday.
The same sources say the two are expected to have worked on the summit's agenda and
other details.

Trish Regan: Top North Korean official on his way to US discuss TRUM-KIM SUMMIT - Duration: 13:09.
we've got it down it's off pretty significantly here 425 points as
investors react to a deepening political crisis in Europe this global sell-off
really being fueled by the prospect of fresh elections in Italy another
election that could turn into a referendum on the entire European Union
and there's a lot of talk about whether or not a European debt crisis is back
I'm Josh Reagan welcome everyone to the intelligence reports
I know as we watch this cell if you see the financial stocks are really leading
the market lower right now this political turmoil in Europe causing kind
of a panic shall we say on Wall Street will Italy actually leave the Euro we
have our all-star panel here to break it down also what is this tell you about
global ISM all around the world I mean it's actually quite similar what you're
seeing in some parts of Europe along with what you see right here in the
United States of America we're on it plus the top North Korean official is on
his way right now to the United States to discuss terms of
the on-again off-again summit is a continent is it not between President
Trump and Kim Jong GaN will this actually go forward we've got new
developments straight ahead lots as we said ABC is canceling
Roseanne following a very controversial Twitter rant from the star of the show
Roseanne Barr we've got some Intel for you but first let's get back to these
markets off 434 and one of their mobility issues falling it all live on
the floor the New York Stock Exchange and oh my goodness it kind of feels like
a deja vu we went through this a few years back Nepal and it all sort of
surfaced right around a similar time and what do you know all summer we talked
about the threat of the EU breaking up in the European debt crisis and now it's
back to haunt us again right that's exactly right and what we're seeing now
is the political turmoil and uncertainty and Colin somewhat of a crisis in Italy
and with that we're seeing markets selling off really there is concern
around the globe about what will happen here there they had an
anti-establishment party they were trying to put together was blocked by
the president by the Prime Minister and with that they were not able to do it
but the question is whether or not there will be votes going forward and as you
noted whether or not they will choose they're really against the the euro and
the eurozone all together so we'll see what comes of that in the meantime the
euro is dropping our stocks here at home you can see the Dow down 432 points it's
moved back into the negative for the year 2018 and we're seeing financials
selling off with that concerns about what's going on in Italy it's
across the board here's a look at our banks you noted that the financials are
among the biggest loggers and look at Goldman Sachs analyst 4% just like JP
Morgan down about four and a half percent
Wells Fargo three and a half percent Morgan Stanley five and a half percent
so the financials in particular getting hit hard as the ten-year bond yield
which recently hit highs has now turned to the other way and now a two point
eight one percent so concerns and also Moody's had already been looking at
Italy for a possible downgrade they have a lot of debt they have a very big
economy and so now we have to see what happens going forward but this reminds
us of brexit and it reminds us of so many years ago during the financial
crisis when we started talking about the pigs all the nations right Portugal
Italy Ireland Greece and Spain so this is now Italy front and center back to
you so much Nicole yeah kind of touch feel like deja vu to a certain extent
but you know no one should be surprised by any of this because you know what
this really is this is a revolt against globalist globalism the the system in
which too many people have lost out in I mean we saw that happen right here in
good old USA right I mean wasn't that in part what this election in 2016 was
about and then lo and behold you see that taking route in the UK and you see
that taking hold in places like Italy Italy which is struggling as a welfare
state with all the immigrants that are coming into Italy right now from African
nations and they're coming into this country and they're challenged to
support themselves and the Italians who are up against it themselves feel as
though they're taking on unnecessary burdens and then you also add on to that
the fact that when they switch to the euro a lot of them had a harder time
selling their goods I'll use Portugal as an example because the Portugal and
Spain as well we're very big in the textile industry and I can remember
being there during the height of the European debt crisis and talking to
Portuguese manufacturers textile manufacturers that had owned factories
it had had some of these factories and their families for many many years and
they said it's so hard to compete because we used to compete on our
currency and we actually had a shot against the likes of China well now we
don't have that shot anymore same thing is going on in Italy not as big as a
textile area although they do have silk in Como right up by Lake Como where I
was married actually but you know for a two trillion dollar economy that that
relies on the manufacturing of some high-end products the manufacturing of
wine and pasta and olive oil and they want to send all this abroad well it's
harder when your euro is worth that much more so maybe they're thinking to
themselves we're better off going back to the lira
I said from the beginning this was an innovative exciting experiment but I
didn't think it would work because you have too many countries the euro that is
if too many countries with too many different kinds of populations different
languages different histories different cultures and you're trying to force them
all together Allah United States of America believe me it's hard enough for
us right now we're increasingly becoming uncover noble so Europe wants to go down
that path and they have no Alexander Hamilton so how will they do that and
what is the future of the euro zone joining me right now Bell Point chief
strategist David Nelson and empyrion Wealth Management president Kimberly
Faust good to see you both I you know I look at it and and while it's so great
to think up this idea of how they can all be united in the United States and
Europe David the reality is is that it takes more than a common currency to
have that kind of unification unquestionably true you need a common
government and that's simply they don't have that and you can't support a common
currency without a common government and you're learning that lesson and it's
translating in all sorts of markets I look at credit default swaps for Italy
right now there's sovereign debt those credit default swaps are explode
right now that's translating this pushing money into US Treasuries here
mm-hmm that translation is just to back up so we explain so because this is a
sovereign debt market right it Italy has to sell its debt it sells people is
throwing their debt a lot of American financial forms actually hold this stuff
which is why we watched today exit question why would they want to do that
very very poorly yeah but as you point out as people look for safe havens it's
actually pushing the yield and the 10-year Treasury money is the US
Treasuries is pushing it into the US dollar that's translating over to our
financial system financial stocks are doing very poorly the dollar going up
gives us even more concern about the oil markets and oil prices you put it all
together you get a really sloppy market and a risk off day like today and it's
pretty ugly though we may actually be able to go to Italy right now at the
dollar it's about a buck 15 to buy a euro right now and those are levels that
we certainly haven't seen not in the last ten months and we've broken all
sorts of support at this point let me ask you Kimberly your thoughts on what I
was just explaining which is that there is this revolt going on that we're
seeing not just here in the USA but all around the world in other words
Americans and Europeans are saying enough like this whole global system
where those with capital are rewarded but labor is unfairly punished it's not
working and so they're trying to take their governments back and you see this
rise if you would in a populist sentiment yeah I I agree but here's the
problem is like you said before or Trish is that you know the euro or the year
the eurozone is many different countries and they really can't support themselves
on their own I mean in Italy has 2.7 trillion dollars in debt that's only
behind Japan and Greece under the third largest economy in the eurozone so you
know them trying to create their own I mean like you said it's hard up in the
united states i mean united we fought we now do we stand divided we fall
so for these folks to try and you know exit it's kind of like blech sit we've
seen this before we see this movie I'm not sure if they cared
there strong enough on their own to do this I applaud them to you know have the
freedom sent in to revolt and to have a better life but but if they kind of you
know isn't everyone going at that point I mean we're already talking about Spain
right now which is looking at the same thing David
you you know you you've got a number of countries over there that are saying
we're this is not this hasn't worked out but tentacles nobody ever thought the
tentacle spread everywhere and even earlier this month you saw the Turkish
lira head I believe a record low and it translates to large cap US
multinationals here in this country the dollar goes up makes it difficult to
sell and it speaks to the fact that domestically based countries companies
in this country are doing a lot better our economy is doing just fine
data points that support that we're the one game in town that seems to be
supporting this whole global okay no don't in that case is this market
overreacting as we watch it now that's off 459 or our investors simply you know
really voicing their concerns and fears about some kind of systemic crisis now
don't forget there's a big difference between say the economy having a hiccup
or a challenge and an actual debt crisis and if we've got the concern about a
European debt crisis that's that's increasingly sort of formulating in
investors Minds then that's a whole other kind of one
well a European debt crisis we can't get it through through it unscathed you know
as as strong as we are right now there will be repercussions but right now I
look here in the economy in the United States hard for me to get really
concerned when I see intermodal and rails areas of our economy that touch
every fabric of our economy doing exceedingly well some companies even
raising prices 15% and can't even meet the demand at this point so it does
spread it is a risk but I think we'll come through it just fine all right
you agree with that Kimberly I do I think we're gonna be fine I think that
the fundamentals of the of the earnings of the companies United States are
strong I think were to be as I said before Trish probably in my opinion
higher in this mark at the end of the year then we will be here okay and
investors would have to remember that you know basically you know three things
they need to be allocation they need to figure out where
their assets are their their stocks to their bonds and where they're located
diversification is your friend always in volatile markets and rebalance you know
rebalance your portfolio whatever limits are down thank you thank you thank you
good stuff from both of you appreciate it
we are following these markets everyone done 865 we're going to be falling
throughout the hour maybe this is a buying opportunity I know one guest
who's on says it absolutely positively is plus next is the summit with North
Korea actually back on the top North Korean official is on his way to the US
right now to discuss terms of the on-again off-again summit between
President Trump and Kim jong-un we have the latest Intel for you next
don't go anywhere is the market increasingly makes its way down 500
points only thinking the grain is coca-cola though

Senior N. Korean official Kim Yong-chol to meet with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in New York - Duration: 2:48.
Our top story this morning...
One of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un's closest aides is en route to New York City for talks
with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo as the two sides appear to be closing in on a
summit.
Kim Yong-chol's visit comes as meetings are taking place in three different locations
to set the agenda for the summit and the regime's denuclearization.
Kim Hyo-sun tells us more.
The White House confirmed Tuesday that senior North Korean official Kim Yong-chol is set
to meet with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo this week.
This comes after President Trump tweeted that Kim, Vice Chairman of the North's Workers'
Party is heading to New York City.
Seoul-based Yonhap News Agency says Pompeo and Kim will either meet for a day on Wednesday
or for two days until Thursday.
They are expected to discuss the issue of denuclearization and the security of the Kim
Jong-un regime.
Diplomatic sources say they will have an opportunity to reaffirm their determination for denuclearization
and ensuring the security for Kim Jong-un's regime while working on the final coordinations
before the leaders of the two countries meet face-to-face.
Both Pompeo and Kim Yong-chol are close aides to Trump and Kim Jong-un, respectively,...
and have laid the groundwork for a North Korea-U.S. summit.
While Pompeo visited the North earlier this month,... Kim Yong-chol is the first high-level
North Korean official to visit the U.S. in 18 years.
Therefore,... there's speculation Kim Yong-chol may even meet with President Trump to deliver
a letter from the North Korean leader,... just as Pompeo met with Kim Jong-un as the
special envoy of the U.S. president.
White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders also said senior Trump administration officials
are directly coordinating with their North Korean counterparts in Singapore and the Korean
demilitarized zone.
Kim Chang-son,... the de-facto chief of staff of Kim Jong-un has reportedly met with Joe
Hagin, a White House deputy chief of staff in Singapore to discuss the specific date
and logistics of a North Korea-U.S. summit.
This is being carried out simultaneously with the discussions involving the nuclear negotiators
from both countries,... Sung Kim, the U.S. ambassador to the Philippines and Choe Sun-hui,
the regime's vice foreign minister.
Meanwhile,... Singapore's presidential palace,... also known as the Istana,... could host the
historic summit.
This is according to South Korean newspaper JoongAng Ilbo daily,... which quoted unnamed
sources as saying it could be the venue considering the meeting's magnitude and sensitivity.

U.S. to hold off planned additional sanctions against North Korea while talks continue: WSJ - Duration: 1:39.
Washington chose to delay imposing new sanctions targeting Pyongyang.
The decision is in tune with the recent turnaround related to the planned historic meeting...
with visible efforts on both sides, to mend diplomatic ties.
Oh Soo-young zooms in on this possible sign of thawing tensions.
The Trump administration has decided to hold off on additional sanctions against North
Korea.
Citing U.S. government officials, the Wall Street Journal reported Monday that Washington
will indefinitely shelve the planned extra measures against the North while the two sides
hold talks to prepare for their upcoming summit.
The report says officials had been ready to unveil the additional measures as early as
Tuesday, targeting further sources of income for the cash-starved Kim Jong-un regime.
The sanctions are believed to have included expelling North Korean laborers from foreign
countries, as well as targeting Russian and Chinese entities with ties to the regime.
Such measures were being prepared in response to the recent aggressive rhetoric from Pyongyang
officials which caused the U.S. leader to call off the summit.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said the policy of maximum pressure against North Korea would
continue, in order to squeeze its economy.
Washington's most recent round of sanctions in February targeted the North's illegal maritime
trade and a global network of businesses that generate cash for the regime.
However, with summit preparations between the two sides seemingly back on track, it
seems Washington is aiming to maintain the progress on repairing their relations.
In recent weeks, top officials have promised Pyongyang economic prosperity and U.S. private
investment should it fully denuclearize.

N. Korea's ex-spy chief in U.S. for talks - Duration: 1:23.
North Korea's former top intelligence official Kim Yong-chol is visiting New York this week,
in the clearest sign yet that the isolated country really wants to salvage the potential
summit with U.S. President Donald Trump.
The White House says Kim will meet with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo as part of ongoing talks
about a prospective summit.
Trump previously withdrew from participating in the summit but has signaled he might change
his mind about that.
Kim holds several high-level political and military titles in North Korea, including
the ruling party's vice chairman for inter-Korean affairs.
He's been on the front lines of North Korea's latest diplomatic outreach, appearing at the
2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea and the inter-Korea summit at the DMZ.
Kim has been a controversial choice for diplomacy: South Korea blames him for a deadly 2010 attack
on a military vessel as well as the shelling of an island that same year.
The U.S. has also accused Kim of orchestrating the 2014 hack that exposed thousands of emails
from executives at Sony Pictures Entertainment.
Kim is technically under sanctions from both South Korea and the U.S., but both nations
have been willing to waive those sanctions for the sake of diplomacy.
Kim's visit comes after a U.S. delegation crossed into North Korea for talks about the
prospective summit.
The two sides are still working out the stakes of the summit, including whether North Korea's
nuclear program will be on the table.

Fox News Alert president Trump confirming the vice chairman of North
Korea is heading to New York for talks when he lands tomorrow in New York City
he'll be the highest-ranking North Korean official to visit the country
since 2000 as the president suggests there is a lot of new hope that a summit
will take place this is outnumbered I'm Sandra Smith here today harris faulkner
town hall editor and fox news contributor Katie Pavlich Democratic
strategist and Fox News contributor Jessica Starr live and joining us on the
couch Fox Business anchor David Asman and he is nice pictures of them yeah on
the program all right a lot of news to get to let's begin a lot of new
developments as president Trump is still working towards potentially meeting with
North Korean leader Kim jong-un White House councilor Kellyanne Conway
weighing in this morning this president on the brink again of bringing
conversation and coordination between North Korean South Korea for the first
time in 18 years a North Korean official will be coming to America on the way to
New York President Trump tweeting earlier we have put a great team
together for our talks with North Korea meetings are currently taking place
concerning summit and more kim yong-chul the vice chairman of north korea heading
now to new york solid response to my letter thank you vice chairman kim
yeongcheol who used to be the head of North Korea's spy agency landed in
Beijing today ahead of his trip to the United States this follows a phone call
between President Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe a yesterday
the two agreed to meet in advance of the expected meeting between President Trump
and Kim jong-un we're now learning they will meet June 7th on Saturday Kim
jong-un met with the president of south Kariya can reiterated his commitment to
participating in a summit with the US and the Trump administration reportedly
going to hold off on applying major new sanctions against North Korea Richardson
is following all this for us live from the State Department Rick where things
continue to change where are we now good afternoon Sandra and that top North
Korean official on his way to New York right now this would be the highest
level official visit from a North Korean official since 2002 the United States
the White House says North Korean vice chairman of the Central Committee kim
youngchul will meet later this week with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and
Associated Press photographer captured Kim connecting through Beijing on his
way to the United States Kim has been deeply involved in North Korean dictator
Kim Jong Un's international outreach to China South Korea for the Olympics and
to the United States kim yeongcheol has already met with secretary pompay
travel to Pyongyang twice a senior military official Kim 12th or
trying to target June 12th even after the president threatened last week to
scrap this so the US and North Korea are working on the logistics like where
specifically to have this travel arrangements but then there's also the
substance of negotiating the discussions about how North Korea is going to
surrender its nuclear program how much of that it's going to surrender what
that looks like and what the United States is willing to give in return so
this is a very aggressive schedule to try to get this summit back on track for
June 12th and summit in Singapore but there's also this issue of laying the
groundwork for the talks between Kim jong-un and president Trump so that they
can reach a deal on this issue Sandra a lot we know a lot we don't at this point
Richardson at the State Department thank you so David this leaves us with the big
question what are the chances this actually happens and if it happens is it
June 12th is it after that date well you said there are a lot of things
we don't know one thing we do know is that this guy was coming here kim
yong-chul he is a dangerous this these are it sort
of reminds me of a friend who used to have a collection of poisonous spiders
you know and I always wondered how the heck can he deal with poisonous spiders
he became the curator the reptile Department of the National Zoo so he
knew what he was doing but I just hope and I I think they do when you look at
our current Secretary of State Mike Pompeo you think of John Bolden you
think of Miss Haspel the head of the CIA they know that they're dealing with
poisonous spiders they have all the background of how to deal with these
people so I trust that they will be as careful as you have to be but this is a
guy who was responsible for the death of 46 South Koreans involved in that naval
incident that rich was talking about God knows how many North Koreans he's been
responsible for murdering so the this we're dealing with poisonous spiders and
we just have to be very careful here what does this mean politically if this
does happen Jessica what are Democrats gonna have to say about this but they
give the president a victory if this summit actually takes place I think so
absolutely I think their husband cautious optimism on both sides here I
think that would seem like a rather brash letter that went out canceling the
summit from President Trump was something that ruffled feathers on both
sides I saw that from Republicans we've been supportive of him also looks like
it was effective from President I think that there has always been a
discomfort amongst a lot of people with the way in which President Trump does
diplomacy what would it be uncomfortable I'm just
saying when you when you see that and when it shows up suddenly out of nowhere
and you think there's a summit coming and it's a very you know trumpian
written letter as it were and not at all in diplomatic speak I understand why
people on both sides are but like can I ask you a question about that though cuz
because you and other Democrats are describing the letter quite differently
you call it a brash letter I think you understand the diplomacy that the
president was trying to acknowledge there Nancy Pelosi called it a Valentine
it can't be both right can't be yeah I know you're not Nancy but it's
interesting you also not it you know you're not on the hill so you're able to
step back and kind of look at things and may call them what they are I don't know
if she was playing a game of politics there but she looks pretty silly today
now coming out calling something a giggle fit for an enemy who did what
David just described right more on their pictures to go with someone yeah and
then there's the whole threatening us with nuclear war thing again yeah that
took place so I think they did deserve a brash letter in response to that brought
them to the table and it brought them back to diplomacy right so there was all
this talk leading up to the summit the president agreed to this months ago he
never said it was a done deal the White House numbers it was a done deal they
put a date on the calendar and then Kim Jong Un's started meeting with China
behind her back started acting up and then the thing fell apart because of the
North Koreans and the president rightfully so pulled out after again
they threatened us with with nuclear war we look at what's happening now moving
forward john bolton who has been in a little bit of controversy for talking
about the libyan model look over the last couple of weeks has been in direct
contact with South Korean officials but recently in you know she talks to them
almost every single day you have the Prime Minister Ian and the Japanese
corrected as my next point is Prime Minister Japan is coming to the White
House at the first week of June June 6 to meet directly with President Trump so
they are still engaged I never said the summit was a done deal they understood
from the beginning they could pull out of it
June 12th is pretty soon I'm not so sure that they'll get to it then
but this idea that the White House never had the you know the card to pull off
the table of not showing up that was always on this by the way don't
at the sense that the Japanese Prime Minister is more aligned with president
Trump on dealing with North Korea than the South Korean president moon in fact
president moon didn't know that the meeting was going to be canceled in
question maybe back on again until he got back to South Korea he was visiting
here he seemed to be in shock by the whole thing it just seems that he is a
little too anxious to to give everything the North Koreans want in this what did
you make of the US confirming and making a very public that we would not impose
any new sanctions on North Korea in the meantime right well it's I love the the
good-cop bad-cop that that president Trump is play because it is working like
no other policy has work going back with Republican and Democratic
administrations in the past they've always gotten away with their crap when
it comes to building up their nuclear arsenal building up their missile
technology they've gotten away with it bye-bye glad talking in some cases by
talking with with terrible language in the past that was never that was never
hit back properly by a president until now now we have this mix it may not
please the diplomats Jessica but but it gets the point through to the folks in
North Korea who as I said before our poises these are the nastiest characters
on earth and this is the way that you get through them and this keeps the
North Koreans kind of on their heels in terms of what would they normally be
doing Katie they'd be firing missiles right to show that they're in charge by
this president saying you know what we're gonna we're now gonna lean in with
more diplomacy we'll hold back on the sanctions which by the way we know
really hurts your people remember when he called the North Korean people last
week he spoke directly to them at one point he said they are hardworking
people he's kind of encircling Kim jong-un and you know he's in the middle
he's got the hardliners who were telling him to say the stuff he said last week
about death to you know the nuclear war whatever and then he's got his people on
the ground kind of glimpsing sunshine for one yeah of course we haven't talked
about China which is which is a key issue here because the president last
week said after the last meeting that Kim had with the Chinese they went
silent they stopped talking cleanness started acting different
that's correct then then we had some kind of deal that was made with the
telephone company at the end of last week and then it's back on again so what
is the relationship between our trade relations with China and their pressure
on North Korea either to have a deal or to pull back from a deal there it's a
it's a real three-dimensional chess game that we're playing here conversation is
a lot more complicated especially once you find out that the Trump Organization
is getting a whole lot of patents over there in China at the same time that
this is going on for Ivanka's company specifically and there are a lot of
people what well the the trade questions the deals the president Trump is making
on behalf the United States of America are benefiting his own family Katie I
like Katie follow up on that one well I want to actually just go back to why the
White House decided to pull the summit if you look at the background reporting
and the things that they said they were two specific promises that the North
Koreans broke when it came to why they decided to leave they had agreed that
the United States would not be stopping military exercises in South Korea then
they got all up in arms about that continuing and they also promised to
denuclearize now they're saying that they're not going to so it's not like
the White House just cancelled it they put forward very specific reasons where
they were pulling out I did go silent there was a period where there was this
act of negotiation between North Koreans in the United States and then he just
went all right that was right after the second meeting in China so I just want
to know fly-on-the-wall what trying to promise them maybe we'll never know we
have to leave it there president Trump and his lawyer Rudy Giuliani ramping up
criticism of the special counsels Russia probe what they are saying now and
whether they have a point plus president Trump gearing up to hold a rally in
Nashville tonight we're GOP Senate candidate Marsha Blackburn has been
touting her support of the President's agenda will this be a winning strategy
for Republicans come November or could it backfire with women voters who may
feel differently will debate women are focused primarily on a couple of things
number one is the economic security issue and they
know that their lives are getting better every single day under the policies of
Donald Trump

Senior N. Korean official Kim Yong-chol to meet with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in ... - Duration: 0:56.
Kim Yong-chol's visit to the U.S. will be the first by a North Korean official of his
rank in 18 years.
After rescheduling his departure multiple times, he took an Air China flight at 1 o'clock
this afternoon, Beijing time, which will put him New York at around 2:20 in the afternoon
on Wednesday, local time.
He was accompanied by another top official, Choe Kang-il, who's in charge of North American
affairs at Pyongyang's foreign ministry.
When Kim Yong-chol meets Mike Pompeo, they're expected to discuss the issues of denuclearization
and a security guarantee for the North Korean regime.
Kim and Pompeo have had similar jobs -- both as head of their countries' intelligence agencies
and as top aides to Kim Jong-un and Donald Trump respectively.
So reports say it's possible that Kim Yong-chol will personally deliver a letter to President
Trump, much like when Pompeo twice met with the North Korean leader in Pyongyang.

SUNDAY:US officials enterd NOKO for talks TRUM-KIM SUMMIT - Duration: 12:16.
so this could be good news for those of us who like to sleep in on the weekends
there is now a study that shows those who do tend to live a longer life dr.
Nicole Sapphire board-certified radiologist with us here in the studio
today good to see you great to meet you coming on you know I was reading this
study basically says that if you sleep during the week say you know for five
hours as some people do because of their jobs you can almost make up for it on
the weekend which I thought forever wasn't true what do you make of this
it's interesting it's a little different than what we've heard in the past you
know very happy to be here Memorial Day to give a little bit of good news to
those of us who like to sleep in on the weekends and we know in the past that
you need to have sleep for your health it can not only impair your judgment
poor decision-making it can also if you don't get enough sleep cause increased
blood pressure and obesity in the past we've always known that less than five
hours of sleep every night is not good for your health and this large study
that just came out of Sweden reconfirm that for us but what was interesting out
of the study was that they said for people who get five hours of sleep
during the week and then maybe seven hours of sleep on the weekend right it
actually doesn't have any change in their health benefits they actually go
back to normal as though they were having seven hours of sleep all week
long and that's really different than what we've kind of been trained in you
always tell you people would always tell you forever well it's nice to sleep 12
hours you might feel better but you can never make up sleep and this seems to go
again a little bit this large study again over 43,000 people in it were
followed over 13 years they said if you slept five hours a night every night for
the whole week you had a 65% increased risk of death compared to those who
sleep maybe seven hours but if you got that seven hours on the weekend that
this just went back to normal and I mean I find that a little a little stunning
right so you wouldn't necessarily be passing this along to all your patients
right away I have been sleeping on the weekends yeah we all do it makes us feel
better this is an observational study we have to remember that you can't have
cause and effect and if you can't get sleep during the week just try and get
on the weekend to ask your medical question that might seem a little silly
at first but why medically why scientifically do people who don't sleep
as much dice sooner what's the reason there's
actually a lot that goes into it and you can't just say for this for one person
just being in Sweden alone is very different than being in the United
States but on a global sense essentially your metabolisms down when you're when
you're sleep-deprived you're tired your metabolisms down you have poor
decision-making there are actually higher accidents and injuries and those
that are sleep-deprived they have cardiovascular disease heart
attacks strokes there's a whole plethora of diseases that come when your body is
just not getting the replenishment it requires an idea you could actually
sleep too much absolutely the same study has shown if you sleep eight hours or
more you have a 25% increased risk of death so this is just 7 hours if you can
can't win here for so the idea is to average seven hours everything in
moderation live as healthy as you can and sleep when you can I guess but not
more than eight hours a night have a good sleep tonight thanks for coming in
appreciate it all right Arthur a good night rest to both of you okay a
historic summit could be getting back on track as meetings between North and
South Korea reignite hopes for peace on the peninsula we'll go live to Seoul
straight ahead well a potential summit between the United States and North
Korea may be back on we welcome me back to the second hour on this Memorial Day
edition of happening now it's good to be with you I'm Connell McShane and I
Marcel Neville officials from the US and North Korea are meeting at the DMZ to
discuss issues leading up to a potential meeting between President Trump and kim
jeong-hoon this as Kim held a surprise meeting Saturday with South Korean
president moon jae-in to discuss the potential summit and denuclearization
senior foreign affairs correspondent Brett Calcott is in Seoul South Korea
right now with more hi Greg our cell we are tracking intensifying
talks are out this region and their run-up to a possible summit between
president Robin North Korean leader Kim Jong Hwan at the scene of that surprise
summit this past weekend between Kim and South Korean president moon jae-in on
the North Korean side of the DMZ a US team is seeing how willing Pyongyang
really is to denuclearize word for example Monday in their state media is
that they would do it on their quote own timetable the US team has headed up by
the current US ambassador to the Philippines a long time North Korea
State Department hand korean-american Sung Kim on the North Korean side a very
powerful Vice foreign minister Cho sung we she is the one who last week in an
explosive statement called vice president pence a political dummy and in
Singapore right now according to a variety of reports another US team led
this time by the White House deputy chief of staff Jo Hagan reportedly will
be joined by North Korean officials they'll be working on logistics the nuts
and bolts of a possible meeting in that venue again all sides in the last couple
of days we're talking about North Korean leader Kim talking about president Trump
talking like that a summit will actually be happening the devil however in all of
these things is in the strategic details and that's what's being worked on right
now artha great Pell cot thank you very much Tom all right I thought we're
joined now to talk a little bit more about this by Lieutenant Colonel Dakota
wood served two decades in the Marines and it's the senior research fellow now
for defense programs at Heritage good to see you colonel it is it's looking to
Greg's point like I guess we might be back on for the summit between President
Trump and and Kim Jong moon what do you make of the way the presidents handled
the back-and-forth here well I mean he's held to his previous small points on
many negotiating iterations we have to be willing to walk away to show that
you're serious about the objectives that you've laid out so if he continued to
concede if he gave all these in concessions etc then it gives North
Korea the upper hand a clear in a way so I think by saying look this is
working out in our interests we're gonna walk away from this thing well we saw
this flurry of activity of people trying to keep the summit on so the fact that
they're back talking again shows that it was a good move and this maximum
pressure along with the desire to talk I think there's only a positive thing
yeah gets it back on your terms would be the argument let me go to James clapper
for a moment the former Director of National Intelligence as you know has
been no fan let's put it that way of this president especially in recent
months but this is what he said about this topic take a listen having gone
this for there's value in meeting and greeting gripping and grinning and just
establishing a rapport right I think yes I think it would be important to have
this woman clapper went on to say Colonel that Kim jong-un may have met
his match in our unconventional President as he referred to President
Trump what do you make of that well I think traditional gets to traditional
results so if we are not happy with a nuclear North Korea and many other
locations in the world that has been the result of the conventional diplomacy you
have an unconventional approach as the foreign policy community would view this
and you're getting results that are different and I think that's what
everybody wants so to clappers point you know people are talking what why isn't
that a good thing and what you'll have to feel their way out you notice they
move forward on this thing they've got that June 12th as a target date they're
not beholden to it but certainly it gives you something to discuss and the
fact that we have teams on the ground in both locations Singapore and there in
the DMZ area and the North Koreans are meeting with Chinese and South Koreans
these are all very good things and I think it's a tribute to the president's
approach to how he's handling this let's just say then that it does happen on
June 12th or or right around that time you spoke about results I mean those are
results in setting up these talks and having conversations but what about when
the summit actually takes place in Singapore the president meets with kim
jungeun what a results what would results mean to you in terms of what he
comes home with I think an additional opportunity to continue talks I mean
truly I don't think it's realistic to expect that everybody is going to get
everything they want at the first meeting between the leaders the United
States and North Korea you know since the Korean War so the
idea that they get together in the room they'll both measure each other up
there'll be a lot of background discussions between the teams on either
side it will consult allies and all that so you know at this idea that you're
getting together and talking I think it will probably lead to additional
discussions and not some kind of ultimate conclusion but a commitment to
quote unquote denuclearize does that need to be up front doors that's
something that we lead up to and there's been a lot of discussion about what that
even means that both sides see it differently yeah I think your point
right there is where it comes down to is what do you really mean by denuclearize
so everybody takes everything off the table the departure of US troops you
know what does it mean in terms of the North Korean program do they allow
international inspectors coming in so that those points will have to be
discussed and what that really defines and then subsequent discussions would
get into the details that is what it means though right all in no nuclear
weapons and you allow inspectors to come in and and and look to see whether or
not you're honoring those agreements that's what denuclearization is to us
right to us yes I mean it from the United States side we're not quite sure
what the North Koreans view of this in the final results all right so it looks
like the bedding is now that president Trump has put himself in a position to
do this now the questions you said is what kind of
results you could expect once he goes there what role does China playing all
of this it seems as if the Chinese and really upset this president the way that
they had had that secret meeting or that extra meeting with Kim jong-un yeah and
yet the United States through president Trump is trying to help out you know in
some business dealings negotiations etc so you know it's a multi-faceted problem
you're not going to be happy with some aspects you're happy with other aspects
certainly the economic card and continued support and trade between
North Korea and China is a major issue you know on the table here so even
though if the rest of the world isn't doing economic relationships of North
Korea as long as they've got a lifeline to China that keeps North Korea flowed
so it's a wild card there no sign the Chinese are pulling that back at all
despite I mean there's a lot of pressure on them to economic pressure that the
United States is putting on them but they've
it's still fairly close to North Korea right yeah well I mean it's your
next-door neighbors so how could they not continue to have relationships with
them and the other countries in that region so again there's a lot of irons
in the fire here and people are gonna have to feel their way going forward an
unconventional president in the United States a leader in China who's
essentially leader for life now so these these players aren't going away and
they're having to figure out in the multilateral sets of relationships in
the Asia region how all these things play out how does it affect
relationships of Japan Chinese militarization South China Sea
South Korea I mean all these are issues that in the back of everyone's mind and
they're trying to feel their way forward all right
it's great to have all your time today colonel what is the final point you're
saying this is on right for June 12th if you were a betting man I don't know if
you are yeah I think it is I mean with teams on the ground I'd place the bet in
that direction sure thank you sir good to see you today
you
