[applause] >> till we meet again. >> ashton carter spoke to that group on friday. he spoke about ensuring educational opportunities and support for children of military families. he also highlighted an effort to partner with nonmilitary schools to track student progress even if they move around with their families. this is about 15 minutes.

[applause] good morning. we just met with a few kids from the student to student program, your program. where are they? are you guys out there? give those guys a round of -- what amazing, incredible kids. ,hat a simple and powerful idea that local military children -- and they are not all local -- two newildren military children who have moved nearby. great take on the tradition of sponsorship in our military.

it is a tradition of sponsorship of new transitions to new basis es andw communities -- bas new communities. organization, it has now gone down a generation to our children. we are grateful for that. that thise way coalition supports our military kids beyond the classroom. i want to thank you for orchestrating this tremendous training seminar, for being part of the department of defense's go to partner on the well-being of our military children. the teachers,k counselors, administrators, parents here today for your service to our next generation. i want to thank you for committing your mission to making their success stories your success stories. to the people in this room, the scope of our mission is clear. think about it this way.

for our recent high school graduates, the entire time they have been in school during l spelling school bees, senior proms, america has been at war. last week, i spoke to our men and women on the front lines in iraq. many of them are parents, many of those who aren't hope to be someday. lives, americair has been at war. regardless of the to mulch was reality they have lived in, m military children muster the same grit and courage apparent to devote to defending our country. that is what makes our military the finest fighting force the world has ever known, our people, our secret sauce. their families, their kids, who

proudly embrace their service. flynn,ke marguerite whose story is told in the magazine on the move. she is in high school and her dad is a coast guardsmen. they have moved six times. she said it is both the best and challenging thing about being a military kid. she was asked about the most important thing that people should know about military children. ids serve too." so many kids like her proudly on their service, creative, wise beyond their years, and they seized their story, the unique experiences, as an opportunity, a challenge, a challenge this

coalition has validly taken on valiantly taken on. professor carter, so i am an educator too. we know it is critical to a richer quality of life, critical to a vibrant democracy, but as secretary of defense, i continue the education of our military children is critical to our mission, to our security, and to building what i call the force of the future, the military that will defend our country in the years to come. let me say why. ,t is true that a capable dynamic force of the future will depend on maintaining an unmatched operational edge and unmatched capabilities, but it

is more than advanced weapons platforms to keep people safe. people keep people safe, so our men and women in uniform, their families, their conviction, courage, sacrifice -- let me say it again -- it is that which makes our fighting force the finest the world has ever known. [applause] sec. carter: if we are going to stay the best, the u.s. armed forces has to be an attractive, inviting, supportive place to serve for families of all kinds. the world is changing. labor market is changing. younger generations and young families want flexibility and choice in their career have. we know that. -- their career paths. we know that.

advanced by moving around and having new experiences, not like an escalator, where you get on and wait your turn. dod has to keep up. means being more responsive to the needs of our military families and their children. that is our obligation. given today's abundance of career paths to choose from, we can't take for granted that military children are twice as likely as other kids to join the military grade no. nor can we take for granted the inclination to recommend military service for their children. inre are tremendous value families upholding a tradition of service that is passed from generation to generation. it makes our military stronger. for the no substitute unique, potent of passion and mentorship that comes from and

mom, dad,y .randdad i recently got a letter from a dearh grader who wrote, " mr. secretary, i want to be in the military to defend our country and our country's freedoms. my mom and dad are in the air force and that is what inspired me. there it is. it is a great reason. like thathildren future air man, who already see the virtue of their parent's service, also see their peers chase those jungle gym style careers. see businesses trending towards more flexibility, more opportunities to pursue higher education, and fewer long-term commitments, so we have to adapt to keep up and to compete for talent.

when we make the department of defense a more attractive place to join across the board, the virtue of service becomes a more worthwhile endeavor for military and civilian families alike. our force of the future should be family focused, parents in uniform who never feel like they have to choose between pursuing a promotion and supporting the family. to give families more flexibility, we are expanding maternity and paternity leave, and we are creating on ramps and off ramps between active-duty , so ourreserves personnel don't have to get an advanced degree or have a family. -- so our personnel don't have to derail their careers to get an advanced degree or have a family.

fewer moves, fewer first days of the new kid in the school. to give families more opportunity we make sure that serving in uniform does not mean you have to trade in your aspirations to wear a cap and down, if that is what you want to do. has helped g.i. bill over 1.11 million americans go to college. those benefits are transferable to family members. we are looking for ways to make it work even better. those are just a few of the ways that we are working hard to be more responsive to the needs of our modern military families, which of course support our military kids. when it comes to education, we have a specific set of tools that we use to deliver direct support in the classroom. dod than 74,000 kids attend run schools overseen our our department of defense education activity's office.

our schools have good teachers, high graduation rates, and above average sat scores. we are doing well, but we can always do better. that is why starting with this coming school year, we will be a doctor in college and career ready standards across all dod schools. our military kids can hit the ground running in college and be first in line for 21st century jobs. dod schools are only a small part of military child education. more than 90% of military children attend local public schools. working hand-in-hand with groups like this is essential to pushing progress outside the department's own schools. we are working together to make moving easier on kids. one way is by creating a military dependent student identifier which let's parents,

educators, and schools track performance, funnel resources, and make smart policy decisions on behalf of our military children over there entire educational careers. how particular groups of kids are performing, we can better target resources to maximize their success. dod firmly supports creating the identifier. we greatly appreciate the ironclad support. thank you. we are also working to extend our reach in creative ways. case in point, our competitive educational partnership grant program, where funds go towards more schools with 15% or military kids enrolled. those funds recently paid for stem partnership that helped more than 10,000 high school students earn ap exam scores that qualify them for college

credit. that is an incredible return on investment. i am proud to say that this year's round of funding totals $52 million. i want to thank you once again for your continued support for this program. let me make clear that we are also open to new ideas. i have shared with you some of the ideas that we have, but we are looking for more. i hope all of you will think of this as a partner and a resource as you tackle these challenges in your districts and your neighborhoods. i want to close with the story about a visit i made to an air base in japan this past april during the month of the military child. i had a chance to spend some quality time with military families and kids, and of course the best part of this job is just that hands-down.

i met some five-year-old students who were making birdfeeders and a craft class. in my day, i remember we made ashtrays. [laughter] to show how priorities and times of change. to boost our military children pasta potential, we have to change too. our security demands it. the force of the future demands it. flexible, thorough support of our military families and kids demands it. together, we can meet that demand. i can tell you they are resilient, courageous, compassionate, and i continued that they are proud of their parents and proud to serve alongside them, but instead, i will let a military child to you in their own words. there was a poem published like katie, a sixth grader who goes to school in new mexico. military is entitled "

girl:. ". i am not in the rank of command orders i do not get but my dad is the one who does this is one i cannot forget my job is just as tough i am the one who left friends behind my dad makes the sacrifice my dad works to keep his country free but so do my mom, brother and me i stand with the rank known as military child. that code, katie, is one of nearly 2 million military children whose parents serve a among our active-duty guard and reserve. that is the scope of our education challenge and our opportunity.

marguerite, katie, thousands of kids like them, give us a glimpse of the grit and wisdom of military children. our mission is to have their back, to cheer them on, to make sure their stories are success stories, happy stories, and stories of fulfilled lives. the brave men and women who defend our freedoms and risk their lives all over the world mindrve the peace of that comes from knowing that their families are being taken care of back home. thank you for all you do to promote that. [applause] the latestsation on batch of e-mails from hillary clinton released by the state department.

a discussion on the application of immigration laws in arizona. after that, another chance to see general martin dempsey and defense secretary ashton carter speak at a form for military families and children of servicemen and women. >> the only pipe in history to have fought the british navy to a standstill. >> this is unheard of. >> they hightailed out. this sunday night on q&a, the search for the pirate ship the golden fleece and joseph bannister. >> he started off not as a pirate, but as a noble english sailaptain trusted to

their ship, the golden fleece, between london and port royal, jamaica, the wickedest city on earth, and to carry viable and portetween london royal. for years, he did that responsible, but one day in 1684 for reasons no one can determine, he stole his ship, recruited a crew, and turned pirate. at 8:00 p.m.ht eastern and pacific on c-span's q&a. >> now, a discussion focusing on the latest state department release of e-mails from hillary clinton. from today's washington journal, 40 minutes. ylan: we are joined today to discuss the latest batch of

e-mails that hillary clinton has released. thank you for being here. from hillary clinton that have been released. what exactly was in these e-mails? guest: batch had e-mails about her asking for iced teas and not knowing how to use a fax machine. that was amusing. benign.ond dump was th there were some funny e-mails. one was an aide writing her about a coat. post" had taken a of people, and 77% approved it. that made me laugh. there were some other ones where they did some polling about her, and things like that. at the same time, there were enough, a large amount, that were retroactively classified.

there were at least 41 that were either sent to her or that she sent that were retroactively classified. they were not classified in such were confidential, but still they were classified. that could present a problem for secretary clinton who said she did not send classified material. host: these classified, or retroactively classified, ourils -- a reminder for viewers, these were on a private e-mail server from her home. guest: yes. it was a private server and private e-mail address. why that matters is because those e-mails could have possibly been hacked, and the state department would not have known about it. important information about certain officials whereabouts and things on the schedule, information like that, was retroactively classified because

even to this day, it is information that they mean not have wanted to get out to the world. for instance, in one e-mail, one of her advisers is described the relationship between primary potent -- vladmir minister ofe deputy russia. the reason it was classified is because the u.s. did not want their impression of him to get out into the world. still, that information has been retroactively classified, seemingly violating what secretary clinton said. host: what is the next step. ? now there is some investigation, and some evidence that there was classified information and her e-mail, what is the next effort federal investigators or whoever is looking into this issue? reminder for the viewers, to inspector general's recently themselves bound classified information in five

of her e-mails, one of which was released to the public and inadvertently. it was discovered in the first batch of e-mails, but for others , the have not been released, covered five different departments of classified information. fivefbi, the cia -- different departments. now they are asking for a thorough review of all of her e-mail's to determine what other classified information may have been in there. there are people in congress that would like to see obviously a congressional investigation into these e-mails as well. host: what are the consequences if it is found that she did indeed store these e-mails on her private server? debate goings the on in washington. did she violate the law? is this a criminal case? could she possibly be charged with criminal wrongdoing, or did she just violate security

precautions? that is something the obviously the justice department would have to determine. they and's have said there should be a thorough department of justice investigation into this to make a determination. the white house said this week that secretary kerry was seen meeting with those inspector general to further review this and make sure all the rules were followed. host: after the ig office completes their review, they would hand over their findings to the doj and say, you should take over and contact a more thorough investigation? guest: it is not always that simple. there's a whole other side to be what on right now about the department just as an inspector general should have access to. there's a lot that still has to be worked out in this scenario, which is why secretary kerry be meeting with the inspector general to make that determination. host: you can call in with your

thoughts on hillary clinton's e-mails. we're going back to our political phone lines. democrats can call (202) 748-8000. republicans can call (202) 748-8001. s, (202) 745-8002. we are on twitter at @cspanwj. beewe are on facebook at facebook.com/cspan. we're also on e-mail at journal@c-span.org. on friday, mark toner took questions from reporters on the handling of hillary clinton's e-mails. here is what he had to say. [video clip] contents,rver, the are now being held with her lawyers in a secure setting. she shared with us the contents that she deems relevant. we are going through those. usc, 1924, how you are supposed to handle classified

information. neither hillary clinton or her lawyer should have access to classified information. >> if i have not been clear on this, today, we have not seen any classified -- any information that should have been classified at the time. host: that was deputy state secretary mark toner talking about the handling of hillary clinton e-mails. we are talking with francesca chambers, white house reporter for "the daily mail." give us some context on how these needles are being released. we saw a previous batch of e-mails. how is this being handled? guest: originally, it was former secretary of state hillary clinton who asked the state department to release these e-mails. she asked them to release the mouse thinking that if all the e-mails came out, everybody would be able to see that she was not e-mailing anything that was classified or inappropriate.

the state department began a review, and intended to release all of them in january 2016, but then a court order mandated that they could not do that, they had to start releasing them in june. they did roughly 3000 that first month, which by the way, there is a requirement that they have to do a certain amount everything a lot to get out to the full 100% of the 55,000 pages. they did the first batch of 3000. then, yesterday, they did a second batch. they did not quite hit the mark. it was supposed to get up to 50% of her evil, but they got to 13%. with the next one, they will have to compensate for that. we will probably see at the end of august, and even larger dump than the last one. host: we are turning now to the call. first up is randy. go ahead.

it is missouri. there's too much drama with , me being a democrat, too much drama. knowing that the republicans itll not ever let this go -- is like handing your enemy a handkerchief to argue. , i thinkng want to say you are one of the most enthusiastic and liveliest people sitting in that white house pressroom. i hope you continue with that enthusiasm. it up. as well, you kind of remind me of kind of the older white house press person in the kennedy administration. .elen was her name keep up the good work.

host: all right. i think that's probably the highest complement i have ever received. thank you so much, randy, and thank you for tuning in to the white house press briefings. i know not everybody has time to tune in every day. host: next up is joe from tennessee -- caller: good morning. i want to find out if she has these servers at home. she said she only had one. did she say she received the emails that were classified from the state department? if they are, we should be able to see what she had and what she is covering up. obviously, she is covering up something. so that's it. guest: two things in response to joan. so i want to make a

clarification on the classified emails. a lot of them were sent to her. a lot of the emails that have now been redacted were sent to her. that being said, sometimes she did respond to those emails, so in that sense you could say she sent classified emails but for -- nevertheless a hacker could have gotten to those but also that's a private server. at wasn't the government's possession or government material so the government would have to subpoena her server and there's a lot of talk about doing just that. but if the emails still exist on the servers at all. so even if they do get their hands on it, she may not have any of the emails.

she said she deleted them. host: do you have any idea what rules are on how they should be stored? guest: yes, there's no question would not be according to something you the white o do but house has at least been cleared that this is not something they would encourage their other employees to do and that all employees of the federal government and administration are told to make sure that they either use a government email or to make sure they are forwarding all the things sent to their private email to the vernment email in a timely

manner so nothing gets missed. host: valerie, you're on the air. caller: yes. i'm so sick and tired of these red necks from the redneck party which is the republican party. i'm so tired of them trying to make hillary out as the scapegoat. i don't care what hillary does. hillary can go out and -- on the white house lawn and still get -- host: ok we're going to have leave from the. we will go to gabby on the republican line. caller: hello, this is debbie from farmington hills, francesca, i have a question. the emails went out. if they are not on the server hat's the government server, what email -- wouldn't they

know that the email is different and not coming from a government account? guest: yes. so a government account typically ends in.gov, so they would know the difference, and to follow up on that point, there are folks in the obama administration who said they were aware that hillary clinton had a private email address and they emailed back and forth with her through that address, but they were not aware that that was the only email address she was using and that the state department did not retain any of the records forwarded on . host: this timeline from the "washington post" provides some of the dates around hillary clinton's exposure of the private address. it shows it was first exposed after a hacker accessed the account of a former bill clinton aide and the hack shows

clinton communicated with her using this email address and then the hacker published a screen grab of their correspondence discussing a number of sensitive issues and they said why was clinton receiving emails at a non-government account? but neither the white house nor another would comment on it. later they said they got the information request copies of the email and was told by state no records existed. our next caller is steve calling on the democratic line. steve, you're on the air. caller: good morning. fran fran -- francesca, a question and a statement. first, when madeline all bright

d colin powell and another left office, that they didn't turn in their emails as well? and jeb bush had private emails and here's my statement, i'm glad hillary did this. she is brilliant. she knew if she hadn't destroyed these enails republicans would have rifled through them and the reporters would have dug through them to find something. the emails are gone. they are gone and there's nothing anyone can do about it. guest: the problem with it is that she was tired preserve those emails and that documentation. she was required to do that. that's the problem with destroying any emails that were work-related that she may have deleted and as it pertains to the secretary of state, the caller was right, they did not save their emails but that's

because they weren't required to. the guidelines did not come into place until 2005, and actually former secretary of state colin powell talked about this a little bit. when he was in the administration, when it was part of his tenure, email wasn't really even being used in the state department at that time and he said he came into antiquated time where microphone weren't using emails so he was saying he was really one of the first state department officials to start using online communication and said he no longer has those communications and couldn't possibly turn them over to the government but that's partly why he was not required to. host: billiton democratic line, go ahead. caller: good morning. yes. i wondered if you ever felt ridiculous talking about emails

for 24/7 for a day. it seems like hillary lives in a retroactive world where if it wasn't criminal before we'll make it criminal now. to us out here, you've had her by the ankles up side down since she has been in the public. every single thing, no matter how ridiculous, and it's criminal. to us it just sounds like you people are unhinged. host: that's bill from connecticut. a few comments from twitter. hillary should be disqualified to run for pode discuss. another writes if it's in hillary's possession it should be classified. guest: that's not necessarily true. that doesn't mean it wasn't classified at the time. all that it means to say is that the state department is going back now and saying they

cannot release this information to the pun lick because it would have been considered classified information. as the inspector general said then and now. host: on the independent line, richard, go ahead. you're on the air. caller: yes, i watch public tv and learned a lot. they had a show about the ring of fire radio and they showed how after 9/11 george bushed that c.i.a. and f.b.i. and all produce information on saddam hussein whether he was a threat o america or not and the doctrine was called white page, and they said he deleted where they said saddam hussein is not a threat and he deleted that and sent it and this guy went before the congress and senate and told them all this inaccurate information and they

don't do anything to republicans. guest: how is this related to hillary clinton's emails? caller: i watch stephane every day and -- i watch c-span every day and they call it left-wing media. it's not. host: our next caller is bruce on the democratic line. go ahead. caller: ok. what i would like to say is this lady admitted that a lot of these emails -- hello? host: you're on the air. turn down your tv. caller: my tv is turned down. listen. the lady just admitted a lot of these emails were classified after the fact. after the fact. and now colin powell had a secret email account of his own. if we want to find out something, let's go through colin powell's email and find tout truth about weapons of mas

destruction in iraq, and also the great jeb bush from the state of florida had a private email account while he was governor. this is nothing but a witch hunt. the republican party is scared to death of hillary clinton that the only democrat they cannot beat. host: all right. related combhent from twitter. how desperate are republicans to derail hillary 2016. how do you think this might the out on the road to presidency? guest: any emails related to the situation in libya have not come out yet. the time period that the latest document uncovered only goes until the end of 2009. so it's still going to be several more months before we even get to that point that's what comes up in several

months, the iowa caucuses and new hampshire primary so when they will release the benghazi and libya emails that will be much closer to when voters will go to the polls. whether that will make a difference on whether or not they will vote for her remains to be seen but that being said, the way this court-mandated flow trickles came about could be more harmful than in they were released in one day. because they are being done every single month roughly 3,000 at a time and it gives reporters ample opportunity to read through every single one of these emails. host: calling from the independent line, jeb, go ahead. caller: i heard on "the new york post" that hillary clinton cently got a $600 -- because

she always says she is for the people but she got a $600 haircut while we are having trouble paying our taxes. i mean, what a -- host: all right, jeb. here is our story on the "wall street journal." the story says hillary clinton released a flurry of documents friday that included a physicians declaration of her personal health and a batch of financial information and -- documents showed her and her husband earned $139 million in adjusted gross income over the years including a $28 million last year when they paid an effective tax rate. tell us about these health documents hillary clinton released. is she in good health? guest: yes. so her doctors said in a statement that she is in good

health. one of the key things is that she is still and will permanently be on blood thinners. she has had blood clots and everyone remembers just before she left the state department she had the nasty fall and she had to go to the doctor's office and that's when she she first got on the blood thinners permanently. she is still on there t blood thinners as a preventative measure. the doctors say it's ooh preventive measure and he sets till in good health. host: and how common sit for the candidates to release personal health information? guest: everyone will eventually have to do that. particularly they want to tell people they are in good health. you should vote for me. but persons who made arguments about their age, that's

something they could and should do to show they are in good health. i think the reason hillary linton did it so early in this is because her health has been called into question. host: sorry if i slaughtered the name of your city. but welcome. caller: thank you for taking my call. e correct pronunciation is "chipathich." i'm an independent but congratulations to republicans for beating up on hillary. keep going. you people are experts at beating dead horses and fighting old battles, and yeah. don't stop beating up on hillary until after the primaries. you're doing a wonderful job and you can probably tell i'm a berny sanders supporter so keep up the good work, republicans.

host: any comments, francesca? guest: well, i will say again, going back to how these are going to be released, it does give republicans ample opportunity to keep attacking her on the server and private emails. host: jordan, on the independent line. good morning. caller: yes. hillary clinton's husband ran for president, and it seems like we don't live in a democracy. we live in an alagargy. host: our next caller is mark on the democratic line. caller: yes. thank you. good morning to all. my question is this, ms. chambers stated that none of the emails regarding benghazi have been released yet. does that mean to the public or or were they simply denied, the house committee that exonerated

her as far as benghazi when i know tray dowdy is continuing his two-year quest of that committee to find something. but when ms. chambers said that none of them had been released, was it to the public? or to the committees that investigated her? host: mark has a good point. guest: yes, absolutely. i was talking about that specifically in the context of the state department releasing to the public the benghazi emails. it didn't come up until down the line which would be a flont now. yes, the committee does have sand reviewing those emails. they say they don't have all of them yet and they are still trying to get them from the state department but they have released at least some of those

from the state. they say that they are missing riffly two months at least from a time period of two months. so we will be seeing whether or not those emails are not just being turned over or if the committee just hasn't received them. 40eu7 and here's the story francesca chambers wrote in the "daily mail". the story writes that two months worth of emails appear to be missing from the documents provided to the state department and reports no records for the months of may and june of twelve as the security stpwhation libya began to deteriorate deteriorate. the state department confirms all the emails have been handed over to congress indicating it too has a hold on its records. the report came out several hours from the white house after the separate issue and

they traded the commitment to transparency. next on the independent line, go ahead. caller: good morning. if regards to this server, the hard drives were not replaced, then the information is probably -- hello? host: you're on the air, peter. go ahead. caller: the information is still available, and you've had seven years of a pathological like, and now you're going to ruin a congenital liar? that doesn't make much stones me at all. but go for it. host: on the democratic line, go ahead. caller: yes. i just want to say to you, francesca, you know, you sit up

there and you talkability how hillary clinton did this, here. get all the information from colin powell. go back to all the republicans. and get these knuckleheads like donald trump out of there who is making up ridiculous stuff. you guys want to bury yourself, we always have one bigger person. if all the emails wasn't truly given up by every office, then go back to where it starts. host: that's from massachusetts. we are talking from francesca chambers a white house reporter for "the daily." it's a new publication here in the u.s. can you tell us what the daily mail is for the audiences? guest: yes. i work for the "daily mail" mail which is the online publication.

it's basically got offices in new york and l.a. and washington, d.c. anything u.s.-based. so i cover the white house for america. certainly when there's international issues but the great thing is my stories also get seen overseas and things along those lines. but for the division of the daily mail that i work for. host: from twitter. if hillary had a private account she could have deleted them. it's not rocket science. can you break down, again, the division between the department of justice's investigation and sort of what the timeline for looking into what the appropriateness of those stories are. guest: so the department of

justice, the state department, all those departments has an inspector general. and that inspector general's job is to be a watchdog on that organization and to make sure they are following rules and practices for stories like the one we are covering today, so the inspector general and another got together to review information to make sure she hadn't sent out classified materials. so the stuff she's taken have four questions they came away with the conclusion that the department of justice should launch its own investigation got emails to determine if any laws were broken and if this rises to a level that's, you know, much higher than a slap on the wrist. host: next caller is bill from newcastle virginia.

bill, you are on the air. what is your question this morning? caller: my question is republican, democrat, independent, whatever. how come we still -- even though the people that are governing this do what they do like the clip on thes who are always pushing the letter and do what they want to do then still follow should we do this or not? we are serving them. they are not serving us. host: all right. that's bill from virginia. guest: well, one thing we try to do certainly as a white house reporter is keep the administration and white house accountable for these things. as i said before, you have the inspector general in one area where they are doing it nternally, but i think the

press corps is accountable for how they do their job. as an earlier caller said i very much try to keep the white house and this administration accountable. host: stephen on the republican line, go ahead. caller: the only question under the email category list was, would there not be a level of precedence as to which information was investigated first and released first to the importance of that category. so the benghazi emails, why hat wouldn't have been something that was released earlier? guest: well, the way we decided to do them was chronologically. the state department has said, however, that it is reviewing

the benghazi-related emails and it's possible those could be released to the public before would e in which she have gotten to them. host: here's the headline, "latest hillary clinton email batch:"h" learns how to email. clinton decides to brush up on her email writing skills and title is full "send." a classic guide for email and at story also notes hillary , there were ls

comments about her coat as francesca chambers mentioned before a picture of her coat on her arrival to kabul, afghanistan was online and sparked a controversy of whether the coat was too hippie or hip and talked about her dancing in some videos and some is of -- our next caller on the independent line. what do you think about clinton's email document zphump caller: good morning to you ladies. host: you are on the air. caller: yes, i just want to talk about the comparisons or if there's any difference between hillary clinton's email servers versus general petraeus. because obviously email brought down general petraeus.

and it wrecked his career. can you tell me if there's any differences in this issue? guest: well, ooh major difference between the two is that petraeus knowingly and purposefully was sending classified information, and in case, if she sent classified information, she wouldn't have been sending it to an outside source like general petraeus. it would have been talking within the state department to other state department and government officials over her private email address act information that would be or could be considered classified. so there's a big difference between leaking classified information on purpose and that ently discussing

information. guest: the issue here is only that she did it over a private email address on a private server, because the government can't protect her. they can't protect the email or that server from being hacked going back to sidney bloomen that. this is how a lot of us found out about this in the first place. emails between she and her were hacked and made public because his email address was hacked which just shows. it's going to be easier to get to them. hillary says it wasn't hacked but it was well protected. but experts say it's possible she could have been hacked and just didn't know it. host: jenny, good morning to you. caller: good morning. i'd just like to say the emails

and all this is a misdirection on benghazi. i think that ambassador stevens was the most knowledgeable about what was going on, on the ground. he knew that that compound was due to be closed and that they were going to collate with the c.i.a. at the beginning of the next year, in three months. he knew there wasn't going to be a lot of security -- money put into that compound. he knew there wasn't a safe room and elected to stay there on the anniversary of 911. he made a lot of on the ground decisions that i think came back to bite that group in the butt. host: that's cindy from washington. any thoughts, francesca chambers? guest: just going back to everything i said before. i really think we've covered a lot of that.

host: our last caller will be from east new york calling on the democratic line. ellie, go ahead. caller: yes, good morning. thank you for taking my call. i am so disgusted with this whole political arena that we have been living through. one, hillary clinton emails? yes. it always should be investigated. we must keep our politicians accountable. but where is the outrage of the former five republican candidates who are being indicted and have been indicted for criminal charges? and they are running for president! host: ellie from new york, we will have to leave it there and give francesca chambers the last word. guest: i would say absolutely there are some other candidates, namely chris or that we have done a

good job and done a very hard job to write about those and as far as jeb bush and his use of private email the media covered that he had a private email address that was not a florida email address as well. >> on the next washington journal, talking about the early stages of the primary race in the latest developments. also, a look at cyber security and hacking concerns. plus, we will take your calls and look for your comments on facebook and twitter. washington journal is live every day at 7:00 a.m. on c-span.

>> in his weekly address, president obama talks about medicare and medicaid, marking the 50th anniversary of legislation creating those programs. and the gop conference chair has the republican response. she talks about legislative accomplishments. president obama: hello. this week there was a birthday. medicare and medicaid turned 50 years old. that is worth celebrating. if one of the best measures of a country is how it treats its vulnerable citizens, the poor, the sick, then america has a lot to be proud of. think about it. before social security, too many seniors lived in poverty. before medicare, only half had some form of health insurance. before medicaid, parents often had no health covering the cost

of care with a child with disability. but as americans, we declared that the system deserves dignity. today, the poverty rate for seniors is less man half of what -- less than half of what it was 50 years ago. every american over 65 has access to affordable health care. today, we are finally finishing the job. since the affordable care act, the uninsured rate of americans has fallen by about one-third. these promises have saved millions of people from hardship. it allows us new freedom, new independence, and the ability to lead longer lives. that is something to be proud of. that is heroic. these endeavors, they didn't just make us a better country, we -- they reaffirmed we are a great country. and a great country keeps the , promises that we make. today we are often told that medicare and medicaid are in crisis.

but, that is often a political excuse to cut funding, privatize them, or phase them out. that would undermine their guarantee. the truth is, these programs are not in crisis. nor have they kept us from cutting deficits since i took office. what is true is that every month another 250,000 americans turned 65 and become eligible for medicare and we all deserve a health care system that delivers efficient, high-quality care. to keep these programs strong, we need to make changes over time. today we are proving that is possible. the affordable care act has helped fund for the next years. $15 billion has been saved on prescription drugs. it helps cover 12.8 million more americans and helps seniors lived independently. we are moving health care system towards models that reward -- not the quantity.

-- the quality of the care you receive, not the quantity of the care you receive. that means healthier americans and a healthy budget. today these programs are so fundamental it is easy to forget how hard people fought against them at the time. when fdr created social security, critics called it socialism. when jfk created medicare, many said it would take away our freedoms. but ultimately we came to see that these programs are a promise that if we work hard, we will be rewarded with the basic measure of dignity, security, and the freedom to live as we want. it is a promise that generations made to us and a promise that our generation has to keep. thank you. and have a good weekend. representative rogers: i would like to share with you the good news about programs that congress is making for every american. from the start, our focus has been your priorities. instead of top down bureaucrats

taking winners and losers, we want an opportunity economy. instead of the same outdated model in washington, we are working on solutions that empower you to achieve a better life. already, we have it enacted reform. -- we have an act that the first real entitlement reform in two decades. now seniors will have the peace of mind to count on medicare and tax payers will save $3 trillion over the long-term. we have a balance edge of plan -- budget plan, and we have enacted tools to fight human trafficking. and we have a plan to advance an american trade and promote jobs. we ended the bulk collection of phone data and an insured that congress will have a say on the iran nuclear deal. that is just the last seven months. since 2010, when you first

elected a republican majority, we reduced spending by more than $2 trillion, the most significant spending reduction in modern history. we projected 99% of americans 99% of americans from permanent tax increases. we achieved job skills, student loans, and medicare -- medical reforms. we stopped the transfer of detainees into the u.s. we enacted a measure to help americans with disabilities in 25 years. sweepingssed the most pro-life legislation in history. of course, we have more to do. dozens of solutions to deliver real results are in the works. for example the 21st century -- , act which would accelerate the development of life saving innovations. the student success act, which will take power away from the federal government, so that every child can have an equal

opportunity to get a great education. and we are ready to modernize the v.a. system to honor our heroes with world-class care that matches there are world-class service. here is the bottom line, we are just getting started on so -- on solving problems and allowing you to have the opportunity to reach your full potential. thank you for listening. have a great weekend. >> next, it a discussion on the application of the immigration laws in arizona. for military forum families and children of military servicemen and women. and, then the latest on a batch of e-mails from warmer --
