And he's out of step with a majority of Americans, who listened to him on the campaign trail when he spoke of the waste of $6 trillion in the Middle East, which could rebuild this country. Do you know, Amy, that counties where they've lost so many sons and daughters to endless war voted for Trump, because they believed he might end endless war? This country is not antiwar, but it is against endless war and seeks realism and restraint.
AMY GOODMAN: We're going to break and then come back to this discussion. Katrina vanden Heuvel, our guest, editor and publisher of The Nation, America's oldest weekly magazine. We'll also be joined by state Representative Ilhan Omar. She is the first Somali-American Muslim legislator in the United States. She was in Washington, D.C., from Minnesota, to participate in one of the alternative State of the Union events. We'll also be speaking with a woman who was inside Congress last night, who was a guest of a senator. We'll be speaking with Maru Mora Villalpando, who herself faces deportation, an undocumented immigrant, just yards from President Trump. In addition, we'll be talking to Bill McKibben. The words "global warming" or "climate change," "climate chaos" were not mentioned by President Trump, though he talked about "beautiful" coal. And we'll speak with a journalist, Daniel Denvir, who has written an article for The Washington Post, among others, saying that U.S. deportation policies were responsible for gangs like MS-13. Stay with us.
