unfortunately we put it out at the end of the last congress between christmas and united nations day and somehow, somehow , it did not get the pickup from the press that it deserved due to our poor timing. f anyone is interested, i have many leftover copies. thank you so much. >> you came and you can do anything you want. andgoing to do one question hen go to our reporters. >> it should cause wages which have been stagnant for the past ecade to rise. p. the last decade the g.d. average has been 1.9%. and i believe we can simulate economic growth and job creation if this bill is done right. >> does that include a trigger? >> well, i want to see what the trigger is looking like is going to look like. it's gone through several iterations and still under negotiation. a bob corker is working on trigger. here's a couple of concerns of what we have to be careful with the trigger in case we are wrong with the economic growth projections and that is you don't want to raise taxes if the economy is going into a recession. that would be the worst thing you can do. you don't want to cut buttlemen

celebrate our national identity the french have got by stealing the irish of goats in part because the united states of america do national holidays they've got the it's thanksgiving day and independence day and here in scotland you know we're nearly the bottom of the european league in terms of the number of public holidays compared with other countries and i would like to see it seen underage be becoming a national d.n.a. that's the nearest thing that we have already to our national day is the day of the patron saint he's been a patron saint for over a thousand years and it's no over ten years since i introduced a bill in the scottish parliament to hot bank holiday owner i don't see an underage day and night bill eventually received the uniting the support of all the members of the scottish parliament irrespective of the party unfortunately as recognition of the bill is recognition of the holiday is rather patchy and i would like to see seen under his day becoming more and more widely recognised as a national holiday a huge opportunity for the people of scotland to come together and celebra

chief diplomat, rex tillerson has found no world leader a greater challenge than the president of the united states. relations between president trump and the senior member of his cabinet, the former c.e.o. of exxon-mobil, have been strained almost from the start. now cbs news has confirmed the white house has a plan to force tillerson out. here's white house and senior foreign affairs correspondent margaret brennan. >> he's here. rex is here. >> reporter: today president trump refused to answer questions about a white house plan to replace secretary of state rex tillerson after less than a year on the job. mr. trump has been publicly frustrated with his top diplomat. >> we disagree on a couple of things. sometimes i'd like him to be a little bit tougher. >> reporter: that comment came just three days after tillerson held an extraordinary news conference last month to shoot down reports that he had called the president a moron. >> there has never been a consideration in my mind to leave. i serve at the appointment of the president, and i am here for as long as the president feels i can be us

. >> trump his shoes to the united states postal. >> so the ball is now in trump's court. >> if he wants to hurt the big baller brand, he should say these are the best shoes. >> why? >> because nobody else will want to wear the big baller brand shoe. [laughter] >> matt lauer, he had his mea culpa. savannah guthrie read his statement on the "today" show. >> there is enough truth in these stories to make me feel embarrassed and ashamed. >> if you get caught up with this, say nothing. >> there's nothing you can say that people will be satisfied with.

. >> the fact that we work together does not mean that we're afraid to say when we think the united states have got it wrong. >> reporter: that came hours after the president tweeted to may, don't focus on me. we are doing just fine. members of british parliament furious president trump used his platform to elevate that fringe group, though the white house insists he did not. >> what he's done is elevate the conversation to talk about a real issue and a real threat and that's extreme violence and extreme terrorism. >> reporter: nbc news has learned from an administration source the state department took the unusual step of sending an advisory to the white house about the negative response overseas to those retweets. still, despite the british backlash, there are apparently no plans to skrab the president's state visit to london expected some time next year. lester? >> hallie jackson, thank you. >>> a day after he was fired by nbc news, matt lauer is now facing accusations of sexual misconduct by as many as six women. and as details about his alleged behavior continue to emerge, the former

it shows the levels of economic growth that have occurred year after year in the united states since the eisenhower administration. it shows the g.d.p. growth. so met me explain it a little bit here. you're starting already, eisenhower, kennedy, johnson, nixon, carter, reagan, bush 14,clinton, bush 43, and barack obama. the green is growth. you already have a couple years -- 8%, 6%, 7%. but the line i want people to take a look at it this 3% g.d.p. growth line. 3%. now, that's not a great growth rate. it's not a bad growth rate. the average since world war ii is closer to 4%, but 3% is pretty good. 3% is pretty good. well, mr. president, when you look at this chart, when you look at this chart and you think about what we're trying to do on the floor here today, it tells a really, really important story. 3% every year -- reagan, bush, clinton, 4%, 5%, 6%, then defeat to the obama years -- actually, we get to the ten years we've had, the last ten years. we never hit it. we have the bush great recession and in then the entire eight years of president obama -- never hit it. now, g.d.p. s

states but also your clear understanding of the genius of the united states. and our greatest strength of the nation is relying on the good hearts and sense of those great core values every american holds in their hearts to look after each other. and i'm thrilled to hear what you've said i want to make sure i get a picture with you and we'll put your testimony out on my web site and get it to the people of houston and texas. it's superb, you're right. i'd encourage you to ask your staff to go over all the programs you're responsible for and ask where you have flexibility. where has the congress vested you with authority to make decisions on your own. for example, one thing you have authority to do and you have done repeatedly is extending the deadlines because of the scale of the disaster in texas. you've been very accommodating in extending the deadlines. another area you have discretion in that i hope you'll exercise is that we in houston all of the major synagogues in houston flooded, one was completely destroyed prior to the high holy days and the number o

the president of the united states and talks about fake news, actually re—tweeted fake news. injordan, theresa may made no secret of her irritation. britain first is a hateful organisation. it seeks to spread division and mistrust among our communities. i'm very clear that re—tweeting from britain first was the wrong thing to do. this row is all a far cry from the warm days of theresa may's first visit to the white house, when she followed the rule book of recent predecessors who have hugged us presidents close. this prime minister moved that particular speed, because she had hoped the harness president trump's and used as for brexit to accelerate a new trade dealfor the us. that new era in the anglo—american special relationship was meant to begin here with the opening of the new us embassy by the river thames. who was supposed to perform the ceremony? that would be donald trump. but his visit across the pond is being delayed and delayed and delayed. this might all seem surprisingly bumpy but we have been here before. the building this one is replacing over the thames in

repeatedly agreed on having the outputs in order to help the historically low price to stabilize but as the united states are just not part of the opec this deal never kept them from producing more oil and on top of that the technology behind fracking has been improving so it has never been easier and cheaper for the u.s. to produce oil so total u.s. crude production currently runs at nine point five million barrels a day and is expected to even add eight hundred thousand to one million barrels per day annually so crude oil gushes out of the u.s. like never before and this puts a lot of pressure on the price of oil and so if you the dow jones is jump past the twenty four thousand mark for the first time what is driving it. so yes the dow soared to new record highs it actually had the best day off the year twenty seventeen twenty four thousand points our already three hundred points away and that means november is the eighth straight months for the industrial average to end on a better notes than it started into the month and the main reason is definitely the progress the republicans have been maki

focus on the radical islamic terrorism that is happening within the united kingdom. we are doing just fine. >> he's elevated the conversation which is extreme violence and extreme terrorism that the president feels comfortable talking about and making sure that we're looking at the best ways to protect americans. >> reporter: but may isn't backing down. >> the fact that we work together does not mean that we're afraid to say when we think the united states has got it wrong. and to be very clear with them, and i am very clear, the retweeting from britain first was the wrong thing to do. >> reporter: the state department warning the videos could touch off protests at embassies around the world. even some in washington are raising questions. >> when you embrace religious bigotry and say that all muslims are the same, then you are undercutting our effort to win the war. all of our muslim allies throughout the world have to be troubled that president trump chose to embrace this website. >> reporter: the president has railed against undocumented immigrants and nfl players

if the united states were truly interested in. ramping down tensions it would engage in dialogue with no reason to engage in dialogue. russia and other leading oil producers have extended a deal to gradually reduce production until the end of next year follows talks between moscow and opec members in vienna that agreement was struck one year ago to stabilize the global oil price and russia and opec agreed to cut supplies by one point eight million barrels per day since the cut began the benchmark crude price known as brant has risen by thirty percent it's now around sixty dollars per barrel . and we spoke to energy experts a little earlier he told us that further all production cuts will have a significant impact on the world economy. influences the national. execution. fourteen is moving more significant. condition and also supporting a russian significant find and understood what was going on the market and lots of restriction to maintain the old prices within fifty five dollars not anymore was not significant that part and i th

he says globalization is unfair to the united states. i wrote in the original versrsin of my book that globalization was unfair to the developing countries. i saw it with my own eyes as i was chief economist of the world bank. africa wcsub-saharan other places where we took advantage of others. u.s. the question, how can it be unfair to the united states and unfair to those in the developing countries? that was one of the reasons i wrote the book, to grapple with that question. also, the united states was the main architect of globalization. prof. stiglitz: he said we got snookered, that those agreements like nafta were the worst agreements ever and suggested that our trade negotiators were snickered by these smart negotiators from mexico or africa. it is laughable. i have watched these trade negotiations. we got what we wanted. the problelem was with h what we wanted. the agenda had been set by our corporations. is that workers in the united states and workers in the developing countries were often disadvantaged. they were worse off. th

steve, take a listen to that. >> the united states should not be afforded a state visit to the united kingdom. one of the key dangers is that we have absolutely no idea of what the president will state or tweet next. >> we cannot simply roll out a red carpet and give a platform for the president of the united states to sow discord in our communities. >> action is needed now. not a slap on the wrist. cancel the state visit. >> steve clemens, from a foreign policy perspective, is this bad for america? >> as nile said, it's unprecedentedly bad. this is a situation in which the united states and the united kingdom and their alliance is one of the most vital and important in the world and donald trump has just ripped the heart and soul out of it. no matter what we do as partners in the future, there will be no enthusiasm for it. there will be no energy of the british people for projects that the united states needs british support for despite their own interests. it's an unbelievable moment. we've seen donald trump take what happened in charlottesville and send it global. >> steve, you tal

we examine the future of diplomacy between britain and the united states after an extraordinary 2a hours of tweets and tiffs. good evening and welcome to bbc news. theresa may says donald trump was wrong to share tweets from a british far—right organisation. despite them and his subsequent tweet about her effectively telling her to mind her own business, she insists the special relationship continues. but britain's ambassador to the us has visited the white house to raise concerns. the president's spokesperson has brushed off any criticism saying he is only expressing his concern about islamist extremism. more from our correspondent alex forsyth, who's been with the prime minister on her visit to jordan. this was a trip focused on building relationships around the world. but while theresa may was meeting kings and ministers injordan, a major diplomatic row was brewing elsewhere. president trump had been personally rebuked by downing street for sharing far—right videos online. his response to theresa may, on twitter, of course: madame prime minister. her tour of the middle east sudden

in the united states a storm of activity from president on a trumpet sparked controversy with political friends and foes both at home and abroad last friday trump claimed that he turned down the opportunity to become time magazine's person of the year for the second year running time says that's simply not true the president strengthened his endorsement of senate candidate roy moore despite allegations that more sexually assaulted underage girls last weekend it emerged that trump has been questioning the authenticity of the two thousand and four access hollywood tape in which he made vulgar remarks about women he's now telling people that the voice on the tape isn't his though he's previously said it was and on tuesday he once again referred to democratic senator elizabeth warren as pocahontas this time in front of native american war veterans and the new york times says that he's still questioning whether his predecessor barack obama was born in the united states all that strumpet sparked a new diplomatic row with the u.k.'s prime minister's reason they for the second day in a row may

but it would shift our immigration focus away from uniting extended families. parents and siblings and cousins, aunts and uncles. give green cards to people who are high skilled, with a good education, come to the country and pay taxes. it would address that point i was raised in the segment about immigrants and businesses. more entrepreneurial immigrants. at the same time, you wouldn't be bringing in so many unskilled workers were going to compete for american jobs and drive down american wages. >> bret: i want to put it on the screen. family-based immigration has accounted for more than 70% of the new immigration over the last ten years. you have 9.3 million new immigrants admitted on the basis of family alone. total green cards issued during this time from about 13 million. chain migration, the primary driver of these numbers, and then you have a study that found every two new immigrants bring over on average roughly seven additional foreign relatives to permanently resettle in the u.s. the top four, mexico. 1.73 million migrants. the philippines, india, chi

it was the strongest earthquake in the united states today. there were earthquakes in hawaii, alaska, oklahoma, southern california all hot beds for earthquakes. this was the strongest one so in the u.s. and there have been about 84 or so worldwide that were larger than a 1.5 mag any nude earthquake. let's go quickly to the shake map. what i want ed ed to show you w why you get so much distance. if we can put that up. maybe we'll come back to that later on. the reason you could feel so much distance was because this was such a shallow earthquake. the higher up in a building you were, you could really feel the shaking. it goes up in intensity the higher you are. guys, back over to you. >> a little history here. the area felt a similar earthquake in august of 2011. at that point, the epicenter was in virginia, but people could feel that quake from maine to georgia and as far west as illinois. that was a 5.8 magnitude quake. there was some aftershocks that followed that one as well. any video of shaking from your house or business. we'll bring yo

. >> the fact that we work together does not mean that we're afraid to say when we think the united states has got it wrong, and to be very clear with them, and i'm very clear, that retweeting from britain first was the wrong thing to do. >> woodruff: despite that criticism, may's government rejected new calls to cancel mr. trump's state visit planned for next year. the pentagon now says at least 800 civilians have died in air strikes by the u.s.-led coalition fighting the islamic state group. the number released today includes deaths in iraq and syria since 2014. various monitoring groups, however, say the count is far higher. pope francis appealed today for "decisive measures" to end the crisis engulfing the rohingya muslims of myanmar. hundreds of thousands have fled a military crackdown in the buddhist country. now, they're crowded into refugee camps in neighboring bangladesh. the pope avoided using the term "rohingya" today, as he arrived in bangladesh from myanmar, but he sharpened his language. >> ( translated ): none of us can fail to be aware of the gravity of the situation, the i

though that is where epicenter was impact were felt in a very wide ranging area latest i saw on the united states geological survey websites had reports as far north east as connecticut southern new england people were feeling earthquake and much of maryland as well. it was located just north east of dover, in the shallow low lying areas along the delaware bay, and some folks on line, very rare location for epi sent their low lying area northeast of dover. 4.1 quake. that has been fluid. it has been changing. started out as magnitude 5.1. 4.4. they have settled on 4.1. if that stand it could still change but if it stand it would tie record for strongest earthquake ever felt in the state of delaware back in 1871 necessity had 4.1 quake there as well. this was a depth of 5 miles. it is generally considered a shallow quake and shallow earthquake tends to be felt in a more wide ranging location, because it shakes surface rock and that is why it was felt so far, felt near the city within second. moderately intense, for this region. not a incredibly light one but , not anything that would cause

it's one that we have heard and we speak about and we dream about and then now as the president of the united states, it's my tremendous honor to finally wish america and the world a very merry christmas.

now i know the president of the united states is not much of a policy wonk. i'm not sure if they have a -- if they have apprised him of this position yet. i hope someone who is in touch with the president of the united states gets in touch with him and tells him his campaign promised to put america first, promised to put american jobs first, and the tax plan he's about to append his name to if this actually happens will be responsible for outsourcing and offshoring millions of american jobs. and profits. and taxes. that's built into this legislation with a lot of other nasty surprises that surface every sing dale as we try to figure out what's happening on this speeding train of this tax plan. this process has nothing to do with representative democracy. it's not nothing to do with the integrity in the work of the people's representatives. so we ask our colleagues, let's take a breather. let's -- the american people don't like what they see. they're rejecting it by more than two to one in all the polls. i've spoken to colleagues across the aisles who are gett

the ambassador of the united states has made representations to the white house, but the idea that donald trump did this without thinking about the consequences, do you buy that? well, does he think about consequences? he knows how this will play with his supporters in the states. this is just the way he operates. he is like a teenager. there's something interesting, when trees away >> studio: -- theresa may was in the middle east, that was when another donald trump episode came out, and now again, almost as if he has seen her diary. and out to the guardian, we have some pretty pictures, which is great. winter arrives with a flurry, lovely picture. whitby, north yorkshire. looks absolutely beautiful. extremely cold even in london tonight. we normally get away with ita tonight. we normally get away with it a bit. outside here it was amazingly cold. i want that at christmas, i have a nine—year old and i'm desperate for a white christmas, the magical thing that you grow up with, getting a white christmas, it is so rare. i don't remember getting many when i was growing up, even further nort

and the united states is strained because of his actions yesterday. his darkest day in the administration. laura: those are strong words coming from you. we also learn from the white house that the president didn't actually know he was retweeting a far-right activist in britain. what do you make of that? ron: that is perhaps the most troubling aspect of this. the most critical thing the president has is the platform, the bully pulpit to tell allies around the world as well as american citizens what our government is up to. if he is sending out material that he is not sure of its authenticity, where it came from, and more importantly to me, laura, why is he doing this? what is the purpose of this? laura: i guess that is the question. we know the president space -- we know that the president's base like this kind of stuff, that he was elected because he can say the politically incorrect and call for a muslim ban, but when you are in office, you risk transatlantic rift. what is the calculation in retweeting this stuff? ron: the calculation is how you art
