chamberlain thought long and hard on the drop train. he was now under the third iteration of his plan and serious decisions would have to be made in order to facilitate that plan. a particular concern, allocation of forces for the operation, the allotment of tasks and command arrangements. to be undertaken against the current command relationships. thereafter he argued that one line of operations towards the philippines was closer to new guinea. the forces should be merged to southwest pacific commands. while all of this was logical, chamberlain was aware of what this would do. it gave rise to the question of what to do with the navy coalition that existed with the australians. the chamberlain execution was clear, the combined us forces would form an exclusive force designed to get to the wall. the proper time has come or to divide the general area along national alliance. they would make the complete reorganization of the americans reporting the philippines and clearing off the japanese pockets. this is a plan to secure a path to the p

chamberlain: we learned a lot of lessons. but i want to go back, the , republican main street partnership has 80 members. we lost 18 in this cycle, including this fine woman next to me. not all men in the republican party understand. it is funded by the men of the party. my guys, they get the fact we need women. getting to your question we have valuable lessons we learned. part of it was a little bit my fault. we help men and women. i have a super pac and a pac and there is a woman in tennessee who should be sitting here. she deserves to be sitting here. i was involved in another primary, and i had hoped another entity which will go unnamed would help her. susan brooks a congresswoman , from indiana stopped me and said nobody went to help her. oh my god.-- i got the men of main street, i said listen, we have to help this woman in tennessee, it is an open seat and she is perfect. we dropped a couple hundred thousand dollars there, but it was too little too late. had i gone in earlier i think , she would be sitting on the panel

chamberlain: yes. [laughter] rachel: what do you do when people say i do like the town. employers are our constituents, and our job is to speak out and we are independent from the president. publicly the president should treat less -- should tweet less. that is a very minimum of how we can improve the rhetoric, and a working relationship with the coequal branch of government in the house and senate. rachel: i want to go to the state level, because something different is happening with republicans. ms. martinez, as someone whose job is to get women and minorities elected in state houses, you have seen the opposite happening. tell us what you are seeing on the ground, share these numbers. >> i think the state level is a different universe. you have thousands of legislators who come up every cycle, and we have elections every year. we have elections in virginia, new jersey, and in even years the rest of the 45 states. we are constantly recruiting more women, when already candidates for state-level office, and we want candidates to reflect the full diversity of the nation. o

[laughter] you know, it was outrageous the way it was implied that chamberlain had teamed up against halifax to -- because, in fact, churchilled had behaved with such, i think, sensitivity towards chamberlain, he'd allowed him to stay in downing street, he hadn't moved out of the admiralty, a whole or -- in fact, chamberlain supported churchill. and i'm afraid british and american filmmakers have very little respect for history. i think, actually, continental film makers have a much better, have a much better treatment of history in that particular way. no, as far as bridge too far is concerned, it's a lot better than many other war movies, i think, in that particular way. there are a number of things you can criticize. i think cornelius ryan didn't want to criticize the british too much or monty too much in it. .. in a brilliant research team it was never even used. in this extraordinary archive. then there are wonderful bits in the phone. i found in the archive, a letter from a cook who was played by robert. the incredibly brave crossing. i was also surprised to find the kernel, ab

in fact, chamberlain supported churchill. that's the crucial thing. and i think that was an outrageous manipulation, and i'm afraid british and american filmmakers have very little respect for history. i think, actually, continental filmmakers have a much better treatment of history in that particular way. no, as far as bridge too far is concerned, it's a lot better than many other war movies, i think, in that particular way. there are a number of things you can criticize. i think cornelius rhÔne didn't want to criticize monty too much in it. he also, you must remember, in fact, he was actually dying of cancer when he wrote that book. and i don't think that sort of necessarily helped in many ways. he had a brilliant research family, and i have to admit freely that, actually, i have sort of profited because there was so much of the stuff that was never even used and was sitting there in this extraordinary archive in athens, ohio. and there are some wonderful bits in the film. interestingly, i found in the archive a letter from major julian cook played

all they want to know is where joss chamberlain says he saved the whole union. that's what they are therefore great that is the story that is told. if you want to go there, believe me it is there. they will give it to you. is to say, simply, that it therefore white males, that is not true. it is therefore what the people are showing up to find out. barbie, itattlefield is the same two sides. would anybody else like to respond to that? yes, sir. due respect, i have to disagree with you strongly. that they want to hear , they want to hear about white men, courageous soldiers and famous people. they don't want to hear the stories. , but margaretp has done is unusual. when we think about battle histories, we don't acknowledge the larger effects. plain and simple. whether it is historians, or national parks. those stories have been lost and hidden. i take questions to gettysburg and have taken them there to -- for years. and it was a revelation for them. they loved it. they wanted to learn more about it. again, i cannot agree with you at all. i like the spirit, could

discussion between the presidents and the president certainly president trump described it in a almost 1938 chamberlain paste in our time way. may not be the right analogy but can you explain exactly what this deal does represent and what the chinese have arogreed do? >> sen. bolton: this is an extended discussion about the nature of the relationship between china and the united states. the focus of the conversation dinner was largely over trade issues, but we do view this as a fundamental strategic question, and how china takes steps to correct what we have seen consistently as their abuses of the world trade organization, their theft v theft of american intellectual property their forced technology transfer. their cyberattacks and espionage against american companies all of which contribute to the trade deficit, but all of which as well represent a fundamental unwillingness to adapt to a rule of law for doing business. this is going to have a major effect on the relationship. so while a lot of the headlines are about increased purchases of agriculture products which is all to the good -- we don't see

very differentjust to mention very quickly to episodes of history, may 19110 when churchill replaced chamberlain. yet a very clear alternative plan, again, a very different plan with which both prime ministers were associated. there is no possible new contender to theresa may, unless the necessary gets, very difficult gifts of being a prime minister was that kind of plan. so getting a new prime minister is not a solution and we have to find a way forward and quickly that requires a statesman like approach, the likes of which churchill obvious example, had, in the ability to think beyond the narrow political confines and think of the nation, notjust the advantage of particular political party. berry good to have your historical perspective on that. thank you very much indeed. and we'll find out how this story — and many others — are covered in tomorrow's front pages at 10:30 and 11:30pm this evening in the papers — our guests joining rachel schofield tonight are martin lipton and bonnie greer. 0ver sixty thousand so—called yellow vest protesters took to the streets across france in the fi

i have a novel idea since i joined chamberlain's been determined to get results and put my state first above political party and many around both sides of the aisle know how to get results and i would encourage them to speak loudly, seek compromise and continue to do great and good work. we need members of congress willing to take tough votes even if it puts the reelection in jeopardy. we need more members who are not too scared to stand up when party uses fear and lies to win support. support. there's a fine line between representing those who served and being representative of them. they don't always align. it's why we need to use facts and judgment to make our decision and then it's up to each of us to explain the decisions. simply put sometimes leaders are needed to move public opinion to the right side of history. remember the decisions you are cmaking especially on big poliy will have big consequences beyond today. i want to tell you about a native americanative american pd seven generations and it urges decision-making in any way to look at how the current decisions that are mad

well, we were in england under the special .rrangement the government of neville chamberlain was the only one on earth that did anything to help the victims, and they allowed not only a little over 10,000 children into england under the so-called kinder transport, but they also allowed people who were waiting to go somewhere to do the waiting in england. both my immediate family and lots of other relatives who were waiting for their quota numbers to come to the united states to be reached went to england to wait for that, and my brother and i were waiting. we were attending a boarding school on the south coast of england, and my sister was attending another. in the summer of 1940, on the of hand, we all spend a lot time in the air raid shelter because the german air force town,this little coastal which is mainly a beach resort and a place for boarding schools, as a good place to drop bombs, and they dropped a huge win into the grounds of the school i attended, which, fortunately, did not go off or i would not be here. in the skies above, june, july, theot to watch parts of battle of

we took a lot of criticism in the civil war that we focused on what chamberlain did from the second day of gettysburg on the extreme left of the union line and ignored other engagements, which is true. that is what storytelling is. somebody says, what is your day? you don't say i backed slowly down the driveway, avoiding the garbage can at the curb, unless somebody t-bones you. at which point that is exactly how you tell it. our job is, and a team, i represent -- i am a conductor of a extraordinary group of job tons, it is our figure out how to tell that orry and leave out 9/10 39-40 as we like to say to make one vat of maple syrup. documentary filmmaking is that ratio, 39-40. david: my wife is a molecular biologist. she wants to hear those details. when she says how was your day, she wants it. to theto get back humanities for a moment. when you include the jefferson amazing, you was called the humanities the glue that allows us to understand how things work and get things done. walking away from the issue i raised earlier of utility of we getd so on, how do folks, especially young peop

so it will berts, very important for us to look at our maine officers, notably just -- joshua chamberlain. and we wanted to see where they had hung out. so we went to little round top and sat around a granite memorial. and then we went north of the borough of gettysburg to where general howard had positioned his troops at the first day of the battle, july 1, 1863. so, here we are, confederates being in red. up north, you could see the word howard down there. from thee looking place where we were up to cemetery hill, where howard maintained ultimately a defensive position, a wonderful position. and we realized that what stood between those two positions was a very big town. and it was not part of the military park, it was not part of the tour. so, how did these soldiers, who were presumably being chased and hunted down, these union soldiers by confederate soldiers, make their way to cemetery hill? well, it was clear they had to move through the town. there was a fight that embraced, incorporated, implicated the town fully. we did a little more exploration , a little more thinking and reali

yes and i don't think that you have to really go back to nine hundred thirty eight and neville chamberlain was attempts to get to deal with germany. flying over to germany repeatedly you have to go back that far really to see a prime minister in a more difficult situation in fact you might say that this is mazen and even more difficult situation she's caught between institutions with incompatible demands and everywhere you look inside the british house of commons you see reasons why she will not get a compromise deal through and people are speculating this morning that the vote when it comes might be delayed until january if it is still late that long because of course parliamentarians have got to have their christmas recess does that make it crashing out or a no deal breaks it more likely. the mrs may is presenting to parliament a choice really between this deal and no deal she's trying to rule out the possibility of no breaks it and so certainly less the house of commons can come in behind a different plan which is acceptable to the e.u. then it makes the no deal scenario more likely at

>> i believe it was neville chamberlain who said something similar about czechoslovakia and the british people. putin is no hitler in terms of the danger he represents the evil he represents, he nonetheless is a challenge of a similar kind. he is challenging the rules of the international water. -- order. let's remember at the first nato summit following russian aggression in ukraine, the one in wales, the day the summit ended the kremlin kidnapped a counterintelligence officer in estonia. what they were saying when they did that is that you and the baltics are not safe. nato is not going to protect you. i'm not predicting that moscow is about to send its tank into latvia or estonia but am not ruling out russian bad behavior there designed to destabilize things to the eventual detriment of nato. if you recognize the commitment to those allies and how important nato is to build the security of the united states and the prosperity of the united states, you don't want that to happen. the place to stop them, we have no commitment to put soldiers in harms way, is in -- and this is where buch

it's like chamberlain dealing with hitler. i'm skeptical and disappointed in the united states. not having put in place the terrace in december. charles: senator elizabeth warren taken a major step towards a 2020 presidential run, releasing the video saying she's launching an exploratory committee ahead of the 2020 election. the video focused on the things that will define her presidential run, economic justice, government accountability and reining in big corporations. a cyberattack disrupting production at several major u.s. newspapers over the weekend. the target in these attacks was publishing, the parent company behind papers including the "chicago tribune," the "baltimore sun" and the new york daily news. on to news. under bringing fred white, former national security council chief is not. great seeing you. >> charles, it's been too long. happy new year. charles: you, too. initial thoughts are speculation into the launch from overseas. it just feels a reminder of how vulnerable we all are to this stuff. >> that is right. a lot of major attacks in 2018 including a huge one

you said that chamberlain thought it would keep winston churchill too busy. th >> nothing happened on the western front and so insofar as the important war minister was concerned that was churchill. he was the one people listened to. they really mat nerd that 8-month period and so you see churchill able to range over a very wide area of the war not just the naval side of it. >> and how fascinating also something that you draw very well. just how negative chamberlain and others viewed the prospects for the british in 1939 and 1940. perhaps it was not possible and even churchill, i was fascinated by this. churchill replied, quote, with tears in his eyes all i hope is that it is not too late. i am very much afraid that it is. >> privately he did have these doubts. the leadership that he showed means publicly when it came to the press or to parliament or the people, to those around him, he showed total confidence in victory. he would have been mad not to have worried occasionally that he is going to go down and the ferocity of the attack that took place that very

i believe it was neville chamberlain who said something very similar about czechoslovakia and the british people. let's understand, putin is no hitler in terms of the danger he represents for the evil he represents. he nonetheless is a challenge of a similar kind it is challenging the rules of international order. let's remember that the first nato summit following russian aggression in ukraine in wales. today the summit ended, the kremlin kidnapped a counterintelligence officer from estonia. what they were saying when they did that with you in the baltics are not safe. nato is not going to protect you. and i predict in moscow was about to send it tanks into lazio or estonia, but i'm not ruling out russian bad behavior they are designed to be stabilized to the eventual detriment of nato. if you recognize that to the allies and if you recognize how important nato with to the security of the united states and the prosperity of the united states, you don't want that to happen. the place to stop them or we have no commitment to put our soldiers in harms way is in donbass. as long as it provid

one could be forgiven that at times you sound a bit like neville chamberlain. -- aism is a night nice thing. guest: i've never heard that before. there is always a first. the genocide in the 1950's. i want to focus on taiwan and trump. he used taiwan as a bargaining chip to taunt the chinese with no real -- he has thrown them under the bus. declared that the trump administration is going along with the one china policy. taiwan represents something spiritual, financial, and strategic. we have thrown them under the bus again. i reject this. i would like you to respond to taiwan. guest: it is a delight for me to find someone who out hawks me. i get a lot of criticism for washington. in i do not think you are right about throwing taiwan under the bus. president trump has done a number of things the taiwan government has expressed appreciation for. existence depends on having roughly 20 nations recognize their existence as a nation, down from 190 total. less than 20. some of the central american countries, when they began to change sides, president trump sent an envoy and raised objections

we will recognize the munich pact where hitler, mussolini got together with neville chamberlain in france and a chunk of czechoslovakia was seated to the of hitler said he wanted to protect ethnic germans and it has very much the echoes of what happened with the crimean peninsula where putin was saying i want to protect ethnic russians and all that kind of stuff. history doesn't repeat but it does rhyme. we are starting to some shape about a knockout into spymaster as well. >> host: dn in jackson heights, new york. >> caller: when you get my age you don't get to my novels. i was the number of years involved in that area and i have the feeling -- there is an appreciation of how insightful rather than action is to feel the general feel pitcher covering and how the people who make things go are not the actual people. a lot of the people who died in the end are the people who never started. so i was wondering if you think that you might be -- [inaudible] at this whole dating. the brain is the site between habit and insight. it might be very interesting to show how much we appreciate interacti
