where is china? number one, an official ideology, china is ruled by an official marxist ideology with so-called chinese characteristics. two, a single political party led by one man. well, there is one and only one party in china, the communist party led by one and only one man, who has been elevated to the status of a demagogue like mao. three, a second police. beijing depends upon a police force supervised by the communist party and directed against all so-called enemies of the regime. in point of fact, the national network of forced labor camps still exists in china and is populated by untold numbers of political prisoners. number four, party control of mass communications. through the 90 million members and unlimited budget, the c.c.p. controls all means of mass communications, especially the social media. the majority of the china people know only what they read or see or hear on a government-run media. for them, for example, there is no such thing as the tiananmen square massacre. number five,

that resident had traveled to wuhan china in january of 2020. so at a lot of water under the bridge. since then today, the health officer here in santa clara county, doctor sara gave us an update on where we are with the pandemic and where she thinks things might be headed next. since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, santa clara county has seen over 275,000 cases of the disease. most likely that is an undercount over 2000 people have died. and currently we're in the 5th wave of coronavirus. fortunately, doctor sara cody says that the numbers are trending in the right direction. the positivity rate has dropped in recent weeks. the overall number of cases is dropping. also, there are now effective vaccines and boosters available. 83% of the population here in santa clara county has been vaccinated. there are also new drugs coming online and testing is widely available on monday, doctor cody said that she hopes in the weeks and months ahead that the health department and government can start to fall back into its more traditional role. >>

and russia and china tried to avoid that in the beginning of the meeting. they wanted to continue behind closed doors. the majority of the participating countries that voted for a public meeting, in spite of that there are no hopes that there can be any formal action taken or even a resolution coming out. they are in a very strong position. they have the support of china. >> we know that the united states already has sanctions against russian employees. if there is any move against ukraine, else is the u.s. considering? >> there are sanctions in place since the annexation of crimea, they are considered ineffective. the west is crediting a new level of sanctions that could reach to economic boycott, even some personal sanctions against vladimir putin. that would be a new level of sanctions that have never been imposed against any country. it could hurt the russian economy but it would probably also hurt the world economy and all participating countries. >> thank you. amid fears of an invasion, ukrainian civilians, men and women are taking up arms. this city

especially right now when china and russia are not in agreement that these measures rise to the level of unified international response. i think it really calls for how do we get back to negotiations? how do we get back to a place and create incent incentie for no north korea to make different decisions. because leaning on them is only continuing this development. >> schifrin: anthony, what about that? >> we know the incentive later track does not lead to response. north korea response to pressure, and china responds to pressure, and the sanctions the biden administration put in plays earlier this month was interesting because it targeted individuals in russia and in china. we know that north korea responds to pressure. they did it for the trump administration. they did it for the bush administration. we know that works. that leads to negotiations. >> schifrin: haven't we seen this before, north korea escalating, in oer not only to improve its weapons, but to try to gt concessions. it hasn't work in the past, right? >>we have to look at the bigger picture. the more pressure we applied

there's also supported by china, but that was not the goal. the u. s. wanted to use the security council to gain momentum in their diplomatic efforts. and president joe biden has said that the united states will continue to push for diplomacy, but also he's ready. no matter what happens. what more do you have on that? well, there are sanctions, of course, that were already put in place years before, and they were considered ineffective. following the annexations, the annexation of crimea in 2014 and all the west, including the united states and the european union, are threatening a new level of sanctions that could reach from economic boy car to cutting off russian bangs from the financial grid from the international financial grid, also to personal sanctions against vladimir putin. then a new thread came to day from washington and london. and that would impose or include punishing, leads that are close to prudent and freeze their assets. also include travel bands for these people. should russia invade the ukraine? so again, what we're seeing is a mix o

first of all, xi jinping is the l leader of china. he asked the u.n. to adopt olympic troops that would start a week before the olympics and go all the way a week after the olympics which all countries in the world would agree not to sort of launch attacks on other countries. president putin relies on his relationships with beijing. they are the two leading autocracies in the world. you are looking at the ground and the weather change and things start to thaw out and it would be a very different picture. >> clarissa ward in ukraine and kaitlan collins at the white house. thank you to both of you. more breaking news we are following. just ahead, exclusive news reporting on key january 6th testimonies fone of the highest profile witnesses to appear. we are talking about mark schwartz, there you see him. the chief of staff to the former vice president, mike pence. mucinex lasts 12 hours, so i'm good. now move! kim, no! mucinex lasts 3x longer for 12 hours. age is just a number. and mine's unlisted. try boost® high protein with 20 grams of protein for mus

on the other hand, you had china siding with russia saying it was the united states fanning the flames here, not helping to de—escalate the situation by calling this meeting and three other countries abstained in that procedural vote to hold this meeting. so it really did underline the divisions on the security council between the west and russia and ultimately no one was expecting any outcome from this meeting. next lets hearfrom lyse doucet in the ukrainian capital kyiv, on the mood there. a lot of anxiety, a certain amount of resignation and anger. this is not a new crisis for ukrainians. they have been living with this crisis day in and day out since russia first invaded in 2014, not just invading but occupying crimea which it does still to this day. separatists moving into eastern ukraine. the suffering is most acute for those on the front line right up against the borders where russian troops, tens of thousands of russian troops, tens of thousands of russian troops are on the other side. they have not been on the other side just in the past few weeks where we have seen this int

we prefer a ds with tory action. >> china? ms. psaki: i can't speak for the motivation of the chinese. they can speak for that themselves. we would encourage any country in the world de-escalate to protect and respect the sovereignty of ukraine and to make clear that a global value is not allowing one country to invade another. >> you have any more details on your plan to impose sanctions on the kremlin? ms. psaki: there were some reports about that over the weekend. as it was back in 2014, as you probably remember, part of what we have been considering, we have developed specific sanctions packages for russian elites and their family members. these efforts are being pursued in coordination with allies and partners. the individuals we have identified are near the inner circle of the kremlin and play a role in government decision-making, at a minimum complacent. many of these individuals are particularly vulnerable targets because of their financial ties with the west. meaning, they would be hurt by sanctions. i would also note thi

makes it more dependent on china. because in the end, china is really going to be the only country to which russia will turn a if there is an incursion. and even if there isn't in such a tense relationship, so we are in a sense, aiding and abetting the gradient dependence of russia on china. i've got about 30 seconds left. professor stan, me just ask you. do you think we're going to see a military confrontation over ukraine? i hope not. i think at the moment it's too early in the sense to say that we won't, but we could see a confrontation that short of a full military invasion that has other aspect, cyber. i'm with some kind of more limited action. i think we will see something happen. right, professor angela stant, joining us tonight from washington d. c. professor and it was good to have your the program, please come back and join us again. thank you. i will thank you for the mid fears of an invasion. a growing number of ordinary ukrainian civilians are taking up arms. the city of car keith is ukraine's 2nd largest

shipping from china to the united states, from anywhere in asia has reached the longest transit time we've measured last week. it looks like things are improving, but if you go down to the port of l.a., where they used to have all of these container ships waiting off the shore, they've changed the rules to alert those ships further out to sea to avoid the pollution. which is a great rule but you can no longer use that as an indicator. the ocean timeliness indicator tracks the actual time of the goods and that's where we are seeing data that takes longer than ever. emily: so are you saying things are actually getting worse? what does that mean for the outlook for the rest of the year? ryan: it has been getting worse and worse every week. it's hard to make predictions about the future right now. a couple of big factors are making it almost impossible. the first is on july 1 of this year, the union that runs the port, the international longshoremen's warehousing union had their contract expiring on july 1. in years past, you get slowdowns as negotiations happen and occasionally a strike

the other big elephant in the room is china. depending how russia is coordinating with china, might be coordinating timing with what the chinese have in store. the ball is in putin's court. >> trace: claudia, final thought from you. >> there's no question that russia and china must be talking about the sequencing of these things. taiwan is in growing jeopardy. ukraine is in jeopardy. the message that america is sending under president biden unfortunately is that russia is able to slap us around the chops while we give speeches at the u.n. perfectly good speeches but they won't fix this. >> sandra: we'll be following every minute of it. thanks, ladies, for joining us. i appreciate it. all right. crime is surging. is a major 180 on policies coming? hear what charlie gasparino is uncovering. the migrant surge leading to a surge of frustration. could border agents sounding off force the administration to take this crisis head on? >> you're allowing illegal aliens -- >> you are doing something. >> no, sir, we're not. different how? d

and russia and china try to avoid exactly that at the beginning of the meeting, they wanted to continue behind closed doors. the majority of the participating of participating countries then voted for a public meeting. but, you know, in spite of that, there are really no hopes that can be any formal action taken, or even a resolution. a resulting out of that. russia, as you know, has veto riots, so they're in a very strong position, and they also have that support of china. but that's also the goal of the u. s. wants to use the security council simply to gain momentum for their diplomatic path forward. we, we know that the united states already has sanctions against russia. employees, if there is any move against ukraine, what else is the u. s. consider and that's right. so there are sanctions in place. 1 since the annexation of crimea, and 2014, they're considered ineffective. the west is now threatening, and that of course, including the u. s. as well as the european union in canada, a new level of sanctions that could reach from economic boy called to cutting off russian banks from t

we need russia against china the crimea peninsula is gone and never come back. this is it. this is a fact. the ukrainian response was swift with the ukrainian ambassador firing back on twitter, german arrogance and megalomania. the german government has to change its course towards kiev and kiev's major vitali. klitschko even complained that germany had committed treason against ukraine is germany still a trustworthy ally to ukraine. i want to put that question in a moment to jessica, but it's just worthy of note that admiral shinbach actually went even further than what we heard there and suggeststed that shared christian allah values could make russia a good ally for germany vis a vis china uh jessica. let me just put that question to you about about whether germany is letting its its partners down. it has categorically ruled out sending defensive question to you about about whether germany is letting its weapons to ukraine and it's even blocking a shipment of german origin artillery from estonia to ukraine. how reliable is germany as a partner? look, germany's response w

china cannot align itself with this point of view. recently, there has indeed been some tensions over ukraine, and we are paying attention to what exactly are causing the tensions. some countries led by the united states have claim that the will soon be a war with ukraine. russia has repeatedly stated that it has no plans to mount any military action, and ukraine has made it clear that it does not need a war. and as such circumstances, what is the basis for the countries concern to insist that there may be a war? we note that the united states, ukraine, and relevant european countries as well as nato are having varying forms of diplomatic contacts with russia. what we urgently need now is quiet diplomatic but not microphone diplomacy. this is the viewpoint held by many members of the council who have also made unrelenting efforts towards this end. regrettably, if the u.s. did not accept such a constructive proposal. at a time when dialogues are underway and concrete programs yet to be made, the holding of such an open meeting by the c

until china cooperates, we can't do anything. i don't buy that. the president has it within his power to declassified all of the intelligence we have surrounding these corrupt assessments as well as to push an effort to sanction the chinese communist party for the fact that they have stone walled an investigation and corrupted the who. the other thing we can do is pass a law prohibiting gain of function research. which by some reports will be increased in the terms of amount of funding to provide to this, which will be the definition of insanity. probably now too late to do a boycott of the olympics. we should do everything possible to not allow china to get a prop again -- propaganda win from the olympics. there's things we can do. we cannot accept the biden administration's intrans jens on this issue. >> trace: i know the military is close to your heart. i want to play this sound bite from john kirby talking about wokism in the military. watch. >> i was in the military for 30 years. i can tell you things like diversity and inclusion, it makes us

china has canceled nearly all international flights to try and curb the spread of the omicron variant. opening ceremonies are planned for this friday for the olympics. however, the united states, canada and most of the european union say they're not sending representatives other than the athletes to the games over reported human rights abuse cases there in china. back here in america, the northeast is digging out from its biggest storm of the year. so far. massive blizzard dumping snow from virginia to maine. massachusetts put nearly 3,000 plow crews out to help clear the streets. the city of boston extended its snow emergency through this morning following that nor'easter, power was knocked out to about 100,000 people during the height of the storm. >>i'm running out of room to put know this is so much now i have no place to put it ties the record set in 2000, 3 for the largest single-day snowfall. >>temperatures in the single digits. teens not making clean up any easier. a warm-up is expected to happen at some point this week. my brother in new york is definitely waiting or that war

so they're in a very strong position and they also have the support of china. but that's also the goal of the u. s. wants to use the security council simply to gain momentum for their diplomatic path forward. we. we know that the united states already has sanctions against russia employees, if there is any move against ukraine, what else is the u. s. consider and that's right. so there are sanctions in place. 1 since the annexation of crimea, and 2014, they're considered ineffective. the west is now threatening, and that of course, including the u. s. as well as the european union in canada and new level of sanctions that could reach from economic boy called to cutting off russian banks from the international financial grid to even some personal sanctions against vladimir putin that has been at blue in earlier years. so that would be really a new level of sanctions that have never been imposed against any country of. 2 course it could hurt the russian economy, but probably it would also heard of the world economy and all participants participating countries. d

think of them as the faang of china, and most of the faang stocks in the u.s. are b to c consumer models. you can make a lot of money in b to b business models, microsoft is an example of that. initially, microsoft stock didn't participate in the rally because people didn't appreciate that even b to b can be a very interesting opportunity. and baidu is pivoting from its b to c business model which is predominantly search engine to b to b business model, which is focused on application of a.i., autonomous driving, coming up with a.i. in the big data centers they're running. move to the cloud, and all of these initiatives tend to take longer but once they take hold, they tend to have extremely sticky revenues and long runway. so i would say it's time to reconsider the crack downin china is on b to c business models if you can look elsewhere, which is b to b, that might be the opportunity. >> tell us about bb securedad. >> yeah, another one of the themes, and i am not a thematic investor, but i believe whenever you have a last decade, you need to compound your cap

russia and china tried to block it. the president said the u.s. is ready no matter what happens as russia continues the military build up along the ukraine border. >> with russia continuing to build up of its forces around ukraine, we are ready no matter what happens. >> the u.s. ambassador said that russia plans to bolster troops in belarus that borders ukraine to 30,000 troops. ukraine representative believes russia has amassed more than 110,000 ground forces with another 18,000 maritime and aviation personnel at the ready. the ambassador was hoping russia would explain why it was building up its mill ta air long y -- military along ukraines border. did they? >> no. they denied there's any proof they will invade. saying the u.s. is causing his tie -- hysteria. they are trying to encourage countries to be worried about something that is not happening. the united states made it clear that what they are seeing is dangerous and urgent military build up in the words of the u.s. ambassador to the united nations. she says the con ksequences cou be horr

liz: well, when you say nation states, can i assume this is russia and china? >> yes, you can. there's others but those are obviously the two main actors for sure, and we've seen that activity ramp up. covid obviously is a big part of this as well. many of our corporations have sent their employees outside of the corporate walls, working from home and other places, which raises the risk level as well. liz: brian, what are you seeing from customers? are they reporting that they are starting to see these bad actors tap on their digital walls, their entries into everybody's laptops and their entire systems >> yeah, so obviously, one of the things we see a lot is there s always campaigns before the campaign, so the bad actors get out there and they tryout different attacks. in the case of some of these nation states, they maybe doing that in one area of the market. they maybe doing that in the ransomware area to understand how they can get financial gain but also where the vulnerabilities are. they then will come back and use that potentially in times of warfare, so that's when i t

saying the first case that covid-19 was a santa clara county resident who had returned from wuhan, china, about a month after the first case was reported, the virus began to spread rapidly around the county. so now, as you know, we're in our fifth wave. um, our fifth wave. we've been through many greek letters, and we're now in the midst of a macron. uh but we do have some some good news to share. which is that we are on our way down. we're on our way down the down slope. say we're about halfway down, not coming down as fast as we went up and our road has been a bit more meandering. since the first case was reported in 2020, there have now been more than 275,000 cases of covid-19 there in santa clara county, and more than 2000 people have died. moderna announced today that u. s health regulators granted full approval to its covid-19 vaccine. the shot has been given to tens of millions of americans since its emergency authorization a year ago. the action by the food and drug administration means the agency has completed the same rigorous, time consuming review of moderna shot as dozens of

she is sea a human rights lawyer known in china's human rights community aces big sister -- in china's human rights community as big sister. she was held in prison for four years before getting a trial. she was charged with the obscure crime of, quote, picking corals and provoking trouble, another catch-all phrase used to lock up anybody the chinese government sees as criticizing anything they do. everyone in china has to live in immediate fear of being arrested should they voice their inner opinions on something going wrong in the country, something they want change add, improved, something that disagrees with the official line of the communist party. she's in poor health, as indicated by the fact that when she was arrest, they had an ambulance outside. actually, the ambulance was outside at the trial where it was held. she suffers from heart disease and hypertension, itemmer thyroidism, and her long -- hyperthyroidism and her long time behind bars has made things worse. staff reportedly instructed other inmates to urinate on her food and threaten to beat her to deaths. because she wa

lauren: i know it's all china on the brain. so, let's do a quick lightning round wrap-up. secretary, what is your dream job? secretary raimondo: [laughter] oh, my favorite job is being a mom. i can tell you that. i love being a mom. and like being wife to take care of my family. lauren: but do you see yourself? i got to press you, but do you see yourself in the white house in the future or -- treasury? secretary raimondo: no. i love my job now. i love being governor. there's a lot at stake. and i just like -- i'll tell you this. i like, you know, being on the field right now. it is such an important job when we have so much to do and there's so much at stake. so whether that is, you know, governor of this job, i just believe so much in public service, especially right now. >> and just take it back to rhode island. what food do you miss the most from your home state?

but i think the only person at this point who could stop putin is xi jinping of china. the two super powers have been working much more closely together and aligning their interests but also aligning their longer term expansionist policies in the case of china, of course taiwan, in the case of russia expanding its footprint there. the other thing that i'm hoping the west could sort out with ukraine, as you know last weekend president zelensky gave that bizarre press conference and had the call with biden where he accused the west of ramping things up too much and causing chaos. i think the ukrainians need to get on the same page with the west very, very quickly. because it also shocked the foreign journalists there. >> what was that. and just -- what your talking about with president zelensky, i said the image that mass media create is that we have troops on the roads an mobilization that is not the case. we don't need this panic. he's blaming the media for being hyperbolic. why is he not only the same page as the biden administration in terms of their rhetoric? >> yeah

they'veinked long-term deals t earmark it to china and across asia u.s. terminals offer more flexible contracts lawmakers are already wary of prices that nearly doubled in the last year and giving up more u.s. supply could make that worse. there is one deal getting inked. the qatari government and airways signed a deal for up to 50 cargo freighters from boeing and ge aviation with a total list price of purchases of $34 billion including engines. a boon for the company as it deals with delivery uncertainty elsewhere. other topics on the agenda, discussions to relocate afghanis. >> what happens, kayla, if we put sanctions on russia that include the blockage or the cancelation of this nordstream 2 pipeline and gas supplies to europe are pimnched? can we fulfill them? >> yeah. there are two questions, tyler one is whether the supply within europe would be impacted by any potential military activity by russia experts and traders and industry executives have said that possibility is unlikely but what is possible is if sanctions cut off the flow of gas from russ

procedural vote, the meeting went ahead because the us got 10 votes, but there were 5 votes to by russia and china for the meeting, not to go ahead and the other 3 from gabon, kenya, and india abstaining, showing that the international community has some doubts about this issue and showing that many countries do not want to get drawn on either side on the russian side or on the nato. us side. in this war of words as it is at the moment. whatever he joins us live from kiev. so to tell us where ukraine stood on this at the un, i think you said was basically taking this international form to plead its case. now, do you the u. s. ambassadors ian was mentioning a 100000 to brush up with that in question while ukraine said no, according to our intelligence, the actually a 130000 troops, a mass on our borders that's including not only those 2 down along the east, a border with eastern ukraine, but who wants to north along the border with bella, rufe, snow, russia says that those troops have been moved there because of a joint exercises that are scheduled for next week. and and you quin ambassador also sa

in venezuela and of course in china. roger was right that that spirit would refuse to be dislodged and would actually get a new lease of life in western universities. sadly, things have only worsened in the dozen years since roger rose. what changed i think is not that the left dominates the faculties of the major western universities though its dominance has certainly increased, the new and depressing reality is that so many students have embraced a new version of a liberal ideology. my wife was one of the first to call it woke-ism. what is distinctive about it is not so much a tendency to make outlandish claims about racial and gender identity, the latter bill weld or lee fluid, i think intolerant tactics which are designed to make it strange creed and orthodoxy. as eric has shown in his most recent research for the manhattan institute, whereas eight in 10 people over the age of 55 opposed teaching schoolchildren that the united states was founded on racism and remains systemically racist, by contrast, a majority of yo

i think we should continue to press hard to designate and describe china, communist china as a genocidal nation. i think that's powerful i would agree. going forward and really emphasizing the genocide is going to be impactful. i've got questions coming in from the audience so i want to give them a chance to be heard. let me throw this question out to any of you or any of you three who would like to take a shot at this. in many respects, beijing's selection as host of the 2022 olympic games was the decision of the ioc which has maintained a path of conciliatory approach towards china. are there any actions that we are our allies couldtake to ensure due diligencefrom the ioc in the future . any thoughts , any insights ? >> i'm happy to take a crack at it. unfortunately the international olympic committee although not entirely impervious to international pressure has driven itself to completely unfaithful actors. as was as fine as was mentioned earlier in the case of the chinese tennis star we saw the president of the international olympic committee aiding and abetting in the chinese parti

so according to official information about 7000 people have arrived in china, head of the games been already 176 people at least have tested positive. now, officials here trying to calm many concerns, saying that there is no outbreak within the bubble, per se, and they're catching most of these infections at the airport. now there is a very rigorous system in place to try to keep tabs of people who do have covered 19, not only 2 people have to register the temperature every day for 14 days leading up to their flight to china. they have to test at the airport and then every day they are in beijing, they have to start the day with another curve at 19 test. well that's done. it's created a very tense environment within the bubble athletes and the support teams. i'm terrified of catching curve at 19 because if you do test positive, you will immediately be separated and quarantined. and you will only be allowed to return to normal routine once your test negative twice. so there is a very big chance of completely missing out on your competition. and that means 4 years of preparations would
