let me let me i want to wouldn't let me ask you a question. here on this morning because we're out in the bay we are in. the caribbean the cyclists staying there again we're in disarray we're being talked about surveillance me. i. to ensure that banks have sufficient cash on hand that there are requirements for the level of capital that banks need to set aside the bigger this buffer the better a bank can weather financial turbulence there are different proposals for determining capital requirements one proposal is to use a percentage of a bank's total assets and another is to weight each asset according to risk under current risk weighted assets rules the holding government that is considered to have zero risk earlier i sat down with former f.d.i.c chairwoman sheila bair and asked about the incentives the banks have to increase holdings of sovereign debt. there's absolutely a strong incentive it's more for g.s.t. security sirrah because the fannie and freddie securities or because they're implicitly government explicitly government back to this

was behind nine eleven i think let me ask you a question i when you as i do you find nine eleven mr kuchel i mean ask answer me example question who is behind nine eleven i give you the courtesy of being on your show you should give me the courtesy of answering one simple question of ok i'm leaving behind i hate i do you tend to believe in this conventional narrative of al qaeda and osama bin laden being behind. that tragic and qur'an this attack but the question is whether the death of those people justified hundreds of of thousands. people who were killed after wards and i don't think the goals that were sat out before that who were actually achieved during that war and that's the biggest problem and you've been very critical of radical groups trying to impose that point of view and i totally agree with you but i think the way and the means the democracies employ i don't much better i disagree if you equate barbarism and religious fundamentalism with the principles of democracy i think we've lost if we accept your point of view that there's some kind of moral equivalence between fo

professor simon, let me ask a follow-up. i want to get an idea of what a system you are advocating would look like. let's say you have arraignment for somebody in a case alleging violence. maybe an armed robbery or sexual assault of some kind. are you comfortable with someone having a right to be released on their own recognizant under the theory that the police should do their work and make sure that person doesn't commit other offenses? and that it's not legitimate to make that consideration at the time of a bail assessment? >> i think that is my view, i think through slow steps we accumulated a system that has a ton of minor offenders and not able to accused in that way. and the right of the constitution and the rights we have made up for the mistakes made. we have to toss out the low-level crimes not just in the city but many parts of the state. and with that bandwidth of focus, we focus on the areas and a activity and crime and less on locking people up. in either case we are punishing the people ahead of their trial. a

. >> let me ask miss dewint that you are obviously part of the bail association and the president of the organization, you have decades of experience. critics have argued that your association and other associations like it use their influence by way of lobbying to protect the groups financial interest. i'm wondering if you can respond to that and perhaps give us an idea what kind of lobbying your organization does? >> thank you. first of all let me thank jeff and the san francisco public defenders office for this 10th year of the justice submit summit. thank you and i don't have a prepared speech. i do want to address some of these misconceptions. there is a bail reform and we are part of the reform. we are proud to say that we are part of our regulatory agency with the department of insurance to reestablish the industry. but alongside of that we are not a one size fits all industry. there is a place for the criminal justice system as well as the criminal bail industry. now we have testified along with catherine, our lobbying effort are basically this is what we look like. this is t

ethan, let me ask you this. you know, in california, there are a number of offenses, drug possession offenses, that are punished already as misdemeanors. i think met amphetamine, p.c.p., i think valium, certain steroids, and yet we treat as felonies, the possession of cocaine and heroin as felonies. did you see this kind of discrepancy in the other states that your organization has worked to -- >> matt, if i could, i think the perspective i could offer would be more useful in that is really putting what the u.s. is doing, california is doing in a more global perspective. because what one sees around the world is a growing number of countries that are choosing to decriminalize the possession of all drugs, when the proposals now are merging -- new jersey did this a few years ago in a small way, colombia, argentina, ecuador, guatemala, some with right wing governments, very tough on crime, and in europe, similarly. it's not generally the standards to be putting people behind bars for a possession of any drug in sma

ok and let me ask you there are primary dealers who transact with the treasury directly and they also transact with the fed would you go so far as to say that these big banks and brokers like j.p. morgan and goldman sachs are part of the government given their roles in purchasing government debt. i would say as banks they are agents of government even without that particular role ok because they are at government charters all their liabilities are insured directly or indirectly and they're operating under strict regulatory environment where other assets are regulated and they're public much like the military is and much like the military they have rules of engagement where the soldier can point his rifle where every wasp but at the same time he still is you know a government agent and so actors have the ability to price risks in order to make return for a private investors but. they have fairly narrow rules of engagement and they're operating under strict regulation of supervision over there i'm sorry i consider public sector entities ok and would let's extend that a little bit a lot

rising income going to the one percent ok reply charles please reply to it let me ask let me ask you george. and i agree with you almost wholly in what you're saying then if we accept that what you said is the reality of the situation and where the end globally is innovation going to come from what let me ask you where is change going to come from how are we going to solve the environmental issues that currently face the world where is that innovation coming from or going to come from well i don't see that it could come almost anywhere i don't i don't really see that it necessarily has to come from the united states i don't dispute that the united nations system where particularly university level is very high. i think it will come from the brics countries i think it could come from europe i don't think that it is any reason what to expect that it has to come from the united states are u.s. products the best in the world i don't see it i mean i think if you look at many consumer products. as good as or better in other countries i mean look at the auto industry are you really going to

would have to be at a complete optimum to be sure there is not a blow back from our policy. >> let me ask joe sarco on that most of us believe there is an an evaluation that a judge makes in making a determination whether someone whether or not should be released on their own rerecog nizance. your lawyers

let me reframe it. what do you do about, if i asked you if you were mentally ill and you say no and that actually becomes a way of diagnosing you as mentally ill, doesn't that present a lot of problems? people, and that actually is one of the things that i think is most concerning. now, obviously there are people who are very ill and there is a lot of debate about the terms that we use for psychiatric illness. now, if you tell me, edward, you have this diagnosis and if you don't believe you have that diagnose, it's reinforcing my belief that you have this diagnosis. that's problematic. but and you can see that really the issue, i think there is a reason this is interesting because it treks back to the real issue of mental health which is what was the responsibility of society to provide services and supports for psychiatric illness. we want to ask that question, with should ask what was the rate at which we fund services and supports for mental illness, what was the range of services we provide. the question about whether or not somebody agrees to your diagnosis and as a matter of course, your average pe

. >> let me ask mr. looeng, perhaps you can tell the audience about the organization you lead and your experience with risk in needs assessment tools or the kind of evidence based factors that mr. gas skon is referencing. sn >> thank you, jeff, the project has in existence since 1976 and it's a non-profit organization. when we first came across this was a heavily needs base. we provide treatment and with the idea that you are going to impact the failure to appear or appearing in court and obviously recidivism. that's now jumping forward 30 or 20 years. in the last five years particularly you have heard these words in fact chief still spoke about it, evidence base. in the last decade the single biggest change in our social services has been the use now of technology and i see it sort of akin to and i read an article recently. what you are trying to do now is obviously face risk decisions now on much more empirically based situation. now the pretrial diversion project and pretrial release is really the hum

so congressman israel, let me ask you in effect the question that eric cantor asked. if the president selectively enforces obamacare, what's to say he wouldn't selectively enforce comprehensive immigration reform, yes, go ahead ahead with legalization, but not enforce the border measures. >> we shouldn't use this as yet another excuse to obstruct the majority of the american people who support comprehensive immigration reform. 68 senators who support comprehensive immigration reform. president george w. bush and barack obama who support it. let's get away from the sound bite and understand fact. under this president, deportations are at an all-time high. border crossings at an all-time low. the senate bill, the product of bipartisanship, which i hope the house republicans will allow us to vote upon, provides $40 billion for new border enforcement, doubles the number of border patrol agents. senator mccain, who supports this bill, i believe, said this would be the most militarized border since the berlin wall. if 68 senators agree this is enforceable, and 87% of the am

here for him to do that. >> let me ask you about that.hought it was interesting that congresswoman was saying fo ichb the midst of the debate about border enforcement, the president could reassure republicans and put in a law and order type as secretary of i homeland security.>> do you think that's true or do you think distrust by republicans of barack obama by republicans won't care. >> believe me, we did what the j president asked us to do and should have done what the president asked us to do, and this isn't just generalized distrust. in the last two weeks, the president has weighed in major s proposals of a piece of legislation he likes, obama care. can anyone believe he won't waive aspects of the legislation he doesn't like for border en security? of rity? deportations under obama. >> wait, i have to bring this mt in, congresswoman, you want to talk about the subject in ng general. number of names have been nd mentioned as possible replacements for janet napolitano as secretary of homeland security.e are you interested in the job?t i

. >> schieffer: let me ask you this, mr. chairman, what would happen if they stopped doing this, if they stopped collecting these phone numbers and storing them there, where they can check them against these terrorist calls? what, in your view, would happen? >> well, we are going to miss somethingly, and exactly what happened on 9/11. what happened on 9/11, a known terrorist safe house calls in to the united states to talk to a terrorist living amongst us. we'll miss that. we will miss that connection between what's happening here and overseas. and remember, terrorists now use the same communication system in america that we do. so they're intermingled with us, which makes it incredibly difficult. what you're doing is taking away the one tool that we know will allow us to-- nexus between a foreign terrorist overseas talking to somebody in the united states. that's how they stopped the bombing in new york from three people with bombs in backpacks from getting on the subway system. it has-- saved real lives. i mean, real folks

. >> let me ask the nsa.

that's very important. >> let me just -- we have ten seconds left. let me just ask you.e have ten seconds left. you are very much opposed to cutting off u.s. military aid to egypt? >> the administration needs to make the case as to why we should suspend the aid. i encourage supporting the military in egypt, which is the most stabilizing factor. >> it's always good to talk with you, sir. >> thanks, chris. >>> up next, george zimmerman is found not guilty in the death of trayvon martin. whether this case should have ever been prosecuted. : help the gulf recover, and learn from what happened so we could be a better, safer energy company. i've been with bp for 24 years. i was part of the team that helped deliver on our commitments to the gulf - and i can tell you, safety is at the heart of everything we do. we've added cutting-edge safety equipment and technology, like a new deepwater well cap and a state-of-the-art monitoring center, where experts watch over all our drilling activity, twenty-four-seven. and we're sharing what we've learned, so we can all produce energy more
