and we know that we have to provide the schedule every day and we know the vehicles that we need andneed to get them ready and out there. not having a facility, to properly plan our training programs for the impact of that. and in terms of the options we walked through last time, a number of options that we looked at is we said, this is an odyssey that has gone on over a period of some 15 years, and look for a new place, no training facility and we are down to basically two, that we can get, periodically at the moment, and of the list that we showed you before, this is not a new issue for us, as it is a problem that has plagued the agency for several years. in 2013, the controller's office, reviewed and made a recommendation that you see here. there are models and boards that could be located at this facility, that would save us a great deal of time, and in terms of, and allow us to stream line, the classes and make them more efficient right now, because of constraints in the existing facilities and if you go to some of the facilities and you can see the maintenance people putting up

we did have a bill that we worked on. we didn't get it done, but it should be included in the authorization bill. we have workforce diversity issues and i hope the secretary will talk about that. there's still far from where i would like to see opportunity in america reflected within the foreign service. there are important areas that the chairman has already mentioned. the united nations reform issues, it's controversial, but we need to deal with these issues. i'm not placing blame as to why we haven't been able to get this done. and i'm very much working with the chairman to see whether we can't find a path where we can reach the finish line and start a process that every congress there will be a state department authorization bill considered by the congress and acted on by the congress, recommended by the senate foreign relations committee. mr. chairman, we spend a lot of time in this committee. i don't know of any other committee has more hearings, more knowledge of what's going on globally than this committee. we kno

we have worked -- we. i want to introduce myself and services and i would like to offer our assistance with working with coyotes. we have done a special education event. i would like to encourage as you are doing and moving forward with the coyote management plan, a comprehensive one and i hope it will include lethal control only after a human is hurt, not in response to an animal being killed. a great presentation by jonathan, by the way, you said everything i wanted to say. i would like to address the notion that i hear all the time if i get rid of the animal, i will get rid of the problem and that is not very true. as jonathan said, when we remove these animals. >> [inaudible] >> excuse me, sir. you will get a chance. >> excuse me, this is public testimony. >> thank you. anyway, i'm sorry for the loss of pets. there is a balance that has to be struck between humans taking responsibility for their animals. there is a way to live -- can we have him go out? >> everybody is going to have their chance to exp

we have a pretty good understanding. we think we have it managed. margaret, an independent in oklahoma. caller: good morning. uncle was iny patton's platoon at the battle of the bulge. we have been in every war, including the new ones. i had one son in special forces eight years. years.in a cast 3.5 he was supposed to have a surgery. thank god that the lord healed him and the doctor was astounded. areaid, it looks like you not going to have to have surgery after all. on our troops, everybody yells about the va hospital's. we need a vet card. i know somebody very well that works the emergency room at the hospital. if you aren't illegal or a , theye, you can go in give you a medicaid form and they come in six at a time for every little thing like a sore throat. but a veteran who is not paid well may have a pregnant wife, maybe a couple of children, and when the gas was higher, he had to go to hundred miles in an old car, pray that they could get their, and then wait 14 hours. i have taken people to the va hospital and who was sitting across from them?

we have worked -- we. i want to introduce myself and services and i would like to offer our assistance with working with coyotes. we have done a special education event. i would like to encourage as you are doing and moving forward with the coyote management plan, a comprehensive one and i hope it will include lethal control only after a human is hurt, not in response to an animal being killed. a great presentation by jonathan, by the way, you said everything i wanted to say. i would like to address the notion that i hear all the time if i get rid of the animal, i will get rid of the problem and that is not very true. as jonathan said, when we remove these animals. >> [inaudible] >> excuse me, sir. you will get a chance. >> excuse me, this is public testimony. >> thank you. anyway, i'm sorry for the loss of pets. there is a balance that has to be struck between humans taking responsibility for their animals. there is a way to live -- can we have him go out? >> everybody is going to have their chance to exp

and we need as many allies as we can have.ome of the fighting needs to be done by other people than us over the decade or generation to come. would you agree with that? >> i completely agree. i'll add to that i was in brussels is few weeks ago, i brought together the department ad ministers. we're willing to lead this and willing to do a lot because we're powerful. but we need other to get in the game. and particularly we need those in the region to play their part. and additionally, we need and we're finding more partners on the ground, because both in syria and iraq, it's not only necessary to defeat isil but it's necessary to sustain the defeat. and only those in the region can sustain the defeat. we can help them and lead them but they need to do their part. and i emphasize to them that we are going to defeat isil and will remember who played their role and who didn't. >> well, thank you. i guess my time is up. i would just thank my colleagues that have expressed concerns about this overall policy of the united states. i b

if we don't, we go to rma. we are not satisfied that is appropriate, enough, or correct, then we have the power to let committees take a look and provide some direction. we think that we have some degree of critic ability and consistency without necessarily creating a circumstance where we can't address the anomaly or the inaccuracy of information. i'm more than happy to go back to our team and basically make sure that we are in a position to be able to explain why we are making the decisions that we are making. if we can't, we obviously need to do something different. senator hoeven: my understanding is that it is currently in his interagency review and i don't know what the results of that are. if the state to pin -- committee is empowered to, i think that's where we need to go. getting discretion out there in the field to your directors to make a good decision. secretary vilsack: well, that's the key. a good decision. we don't necessarily want to create a circumstance where everybody is unhappy ultimately wi

but we know we have a big challenge.and that's bringing in more people, but then ensuring that they stay and that they're in the senior leadership positions. we just began a partnership with the cox foundation to evaluate our programs, we want to use our resources in the most effective way. i'm encouraged there's progress. i'm not satisfied with the result. as always, senators, want to take your good recommendations and advice because we share the objective and some of the frustration as well. >> i appreciate your answer, but after 24 years, i've heard much of the same. that's two and a half decades, almost. this starts at the top. like any organization, if at the top, you say to those below you, i will judge you in part by how you create diversity within your bureaus and departments, believe me, people will follow. and we just haven't had that commitment. so i look forward to working with you and the committee to make it happen. not for the diversity sake alone, but for what it brings to our foreign diplomacy. >> if i c

to see we were looking for. but we cannot see what we need to see. with the end stage for disease the brave and is severe the degenerated that will shot of the mri skean as severe atrophy. and the culprit is an abrogation of the protein in the nerve cells. ed is the signature of the ct with multiple different diseases in to be a bad actor. in those that are not severely dented it becomes tricky to narrow those differences. and you can only make bad diagnosis and then try to image the brain for the mri signature than the next page is to move until longitudinal study to see when those images and it appears that this is an accurate diagnosis the bad is the situation you're in now. >> let me just finish shot. [laughter] the problem is initially had thought this would be a rare event. for those that have a thousand hits not that much of a revelation the high school or college to mention a look at the mayo clinic in we don't know how common this is. if everyone will progress, we doubt it. have a couple of clicks but need to work that out. >> there are ways

we can definitely document this information as we go forward and make sure that we b back to y'all. >>i'm i would appreciate if you would because i know there are people that have careers and families aren't able to attend the meeting but they would be interested in they need that affordable housing as well. >>understood. >>my comment is this project design qualifies for the wow factor, is that right? >>[laughing]. >>the architectural team can you please stand up. all of you that are responsible for this wonderful thing. i think we commented on it but we saw the design. it's very pretty, it's very nice. also because we haven't talked a lot about the sbe program i see there is quite a lot of diversity in the team as well. not just geographic but racial and gender diversity as well. we like to see that in a team. >>>i have a question and that is on the schedule. that says in june 2016 the construction is going to start and that is around the corner. do we have a sense of if mr. lee is still here? if not we can tell what the developer. does the construction subcontractors in our spe pr

we don't make good deals anymore. we don't win anymore. where do we win? we lose on trade.lose with the military. we can't beat isis. we can't beat isis. here we have military and we can't beat isis. we don't want to use our military. we don't know how to win anymore. it is not even in our culture anymore. old expression "to the victor belong the spoils." i did not want to go in. i said, you are going to destabilize the entire middle east. they went into iraq and it was a mistake. now, obama gets out. the way he got out was so bad. he puts out a date. the enemy says, wow. they couldn't even believe it, i guarantee you. he pushes out a day when we are leaving. bad thing to do. in all fairness, we should not there, but we should have left some troops behind so that what happened would not have happened. so, iran is taking over iraq. iraq has the second-largest oil reserves in the world. so, the iran deal -- used to say one of the greatest deals i have ever seen is the iran deal, but actually, one of the greatest deals i have seen is what is happening right now. iran is taking

categories, we have already accomplished that. we know we can do more.e trying to repair brands that have been totally eliminated. we have billion-dollar brands we put on the shelf. we stopped the expansion and design process. over the last two years we built the brands back. we have a lot of work to do. we are confident we can get back to where we were at some point in the future. pre-ron johnson, it was $17 billion. they said it would take 10 years to get down to that level. what level are you targeting? marvin: the business is different. if you go back into 2011, consumers shop in a different way. onre is no significant focus the mobile army channel. now, we are simply going to create a strategy that will allow customers to shop where they want to shop. in a lot of ways, we are not setting a target as our goal. we have a growth initiative we want to stand through 2016. we want to create a strong and sustainable shelf for our return. there are a lot of people with low revenue. we are not trying to hit an justicial target, we're trying to expand profita

if we did not, or if we were not able to achieve what we opened that we will be able to achieve with the ucsf whether for the financial reasons or the technical reasons or whatever it will be, i think that we will be back in a more standard place, where we will be building our own system and it will be more of a scenario where we are saying, that we need our system, which is the best product for us to go out and purchase. >> so i think that i get that, distinction and so, what if, and let's just say that you were to do an rfp, would that also be the process or the place for you to explore, whether this partnership, would work out? >> well, it is a good question. and i think that there are a couple of concerns that we have about that route. we did think about this. and evaluate it. the first is, that we are again, proposing to negotiate with ucsf, they have a system that they have bought from a vendor, but our negotiations and ultimately our agreement would be with ucsf and not a vendor, so there is not a precedent that i am aware of for the governmental entity to bid and compete thro

but we have -- we made a request for those funds.and we got four different answers from four different committees. i know that's how the system works. but it's really tough to wage a campaign under those circumstances. >> and it's -- >> if i can plead for -- as we try to be agile, if i can plead for some agility in responding to our funding requests -- >> it's time urgent right now. >> it is time urgent. >> thank you. thank you, mr. chairman. >> thank you, chairman. i want to thank all of you for being here and for your leadership, service to our country. i wanted to ask new hampshire is facing a terrible epidemic of heroin and dependent not coming over the southern border, and it's killing people in our states. and recently the senate passed what's called the comprehensive addiction and recovery act to deal with the treatment side and support for first responders. but we know from prior testimony, both from our north com and southern com commanders that the networks that are being used to traffic the drugs into our country, also our

we were asked and the powerpoint-there we go-we were asked to give a brief description of services we provide in san francisco unified working with our transjnder gender exspanseive students and to do that we thought we would take a look at the data we have to support our work. we are san francisco unified is a cdc sponsored financed city for of our programs and as such we implement the youth risk behavior survey annually since september of 1990. the most recent survey as you can see here, we reached 68 percent of our middle school student and 82 percent of our high school across all of our high schools and this randomized sample. we also in looking at our demo graphics, we have probably national ly the best consistent data over the past 20 years looking at our sexual orientation and gender yite identity. in terms of middle school for sexual orientation the glb and not sure which we count as q is there and the gender identity we have 5 administrations on two different surveys of our students and we have consistently been at about 1 percent of our middle school students identifies as t

we still -- but we have to do it now. we still have time to get it right, but we do not have forever. we must do it now and we must do it in 2016. i want to thank all of you for coming and waiting for me. i apologize if after the events i rush off. i have one more thing to do today if my boys does not leave me. does not leave me. i have been struggling with it all week. thank you, sir. i appreciate it. you believed know in me wants. i'm asking you to believe again. we can win this election and we will. i need your help next tuesday because we are going to win florida in the primary, in november, and we are going to turn this country around and wait for our children what americans always leave their children -- the single greatest nation in the history of all mankind! thank you and god bless you. god bless all of you. thank you. [applause] [no audio] during campaign 2016, c-span takes you on the road to the white house as we follow the candidates on c-span, c-span radio, and www.c-span.org. presidential candidate ted spoke

san francisco must do what we we -- do what we can. this is a national and state issue and we need to fund and invest in-housing, that housing is a right, that housing is more than a home. it's about security. it is about being able to have consistent employment and it's about health. it's about building community. and it is about securing relationships that are vital for any society. so, more than anything, i think it's important for all of us whether we're members of the board of supervisors and mayor and advocates to come together to solve this problem together, and this hearing in many ways is to discuss that as a community. and to think about what it means to have an emergency of those that are without housing here here in san francisco. and i do want to recognize many people in this room who work everyday on this issue that are apart of the solution. and that care so deeply about all of their neighbors whether they're housed or not. thank you again, supervisor campos for bringing this issue and i'm going to turn the mic back to y

we get that information as we need it. at the same time, we occasionally in the course of our work identify information that is either of law enforcement and intelligence value and we have well -- well developed pathways to make sure that that information is shared. one example is during the course of refugee screening, if we learn information that is potentially of intelligence value, that information is in fact, shared with the intelligence community. >> thank you. >> and we work very closely with treasury. when they make a designation as part of the announcement of that designation any -- anyone who's designated and quite often their family members or anyone who benefits from these actions, they pass those to us and we immediately enter them into our lookout system, review any visas and do irrevocations of the visa if anyone is found to be in a class. >> thank you. >> senator booker? senator booker: i just want to say how grateful i am for the dedication, work and service that the four of your render to our nation. we h

we can remove the cloak and we will.oday's announcement proves once again that there is no free pass for those who conduct nation state affiliated intrusions. this week is a significant week when it comes to our national security cyberprogram. on tuesday, we unveiled charges against members of the syrian electronic army and yesterday, a chinese businessman in los angeles pled guilty for conspiring to hack into defense contractors and to steal sensitive information, including information related to fighter jets. and now today, we can tell the world that hackers affiliated with the iranian government attacked u.s. systems and we seek to bring them to justice for their crimes. so no matter where a hacker is located or who he is affiliated with, be it china or north korea, be it the islamic state and the levant or the syrian electronic army, we can do so publicly, figure out who did it, say who did it and have consequences. and this is still the beginning of this approach. we will continue to pursue hackers affiliated with n

if we just go back a slide we can go right past that one. did we miss one? there's a cig slide in there i think before this. okay, so picking right up, crisis intervention training. this is training that all new officers are getting before they even hit the street and also training that we are putting everybody through who is already out there on the street and has already finished the academy, crisis intervention training. this is where officers learn the critical skills for deescalating situations for dealing with people who is mental health crisis going on and obviously our goal there is to be able to defuse and deescalate any situation that we possibly can. the folks who are cit trained at the richmond right now are spread out fairly evenly on the watch or on the watches and then of course if we needed to we could also ask for cit trained officer from a neighboring station in a crisis as well. we have a lot of different languages in the station. the ones that we use most are probably cantonese, a little bit of mandarin, russian, spanish. not a lot of cal

we are not using it yet. we are still meeting. this has been years and years in meeting but we are on the homestretch and we'll address that soon. >> let me press on this one a little bit now. the homestretch is around the block? >> i don't know. your guess is as good as mine. >> what are the barriers at this point? is there something we can do from this seat? >> i really don't know. it's language. >> i'm sitting here and i have heard similar discussions years ago and i'm, you know, you are frustrated, i'm frustrated. frustration by itself doesn't do anything. what is it that we need to get this moving. we can't be sitting around and having more kids fail. we need to share with the community members and they need to be doing their part in this. it's really frustrating to me that we are not there yet. >> supervisor yee, i agree that frustration goes no where if we just sit here and hearing the presentationarily yes, sir, it gives us a sense of urgency to do something. i have to say through your leadership in developing the children

do we have another question on the phone >> we do. we have a question from the christian science monitor. please proceed. >> thank you very much. following up on the unintended consequences i wonder where you folks see striking a balance between wanting other countries to be using our launch services and take advantage of our technology. it sort of strikes me and developing their own. it strikes me one of the unintended consequences of the unintended consequences is these countries developing capabilities to the point where when we're talk about, perhaps, you know, international cooperation beyond mars or the moon, they've got something more to bring to the table other than just money. they've also got sort of the tech end and we've seen this both in unmanned space exploration as well as things like the international space station and now with orion. where is that balance between wanting to maintain a robust, if you will sort of technology export for space, you know, from the u.s., with helping these countries actually develop their o

it wrong that we finally remembered who we were, we finally remembered what america was, and we rose up to the task before us like each generation before us, solved our problems, not left them for our children. when our work was finished, this was a generation that left their children as the freest and most -- prosperous americans that ever lived. [applause] mr. rubio: this was a generation that didn't just save the american dream, it expanded until it reached more people and changed more lives than ever before. [applause] mr. rubio: and this was a offer the that greatest chapter and the amazing story of america, that brought about a new american century. [applause] mr. rubio: so i am here once more before i leave -- don't know where i'm going next. [laughter] mr. rubio: i think arkansas and then oklahoma. they keep calling it the sec primary. there are some acc schools in there too. [applause] this is a georgia tech town, right? [cheers] mr. rubio: no? listen. all right, enough. go gators. last event, we were at clemson. we finished pretty strong. voted the people there, for me beca

but we have to. we have no choice. when you look at the iran deal, the horrible trade deals, our jobs are being sucked away. it is unbelievable what is happening. our military can't beat isis. it is being depleted. our veterans are being treated horribly. our border is a piece of swiss cheese, people come pouring across. let me tell you. at the top of that we have a divided country. we have black and white, and every other thing. everybody hates everybody. even in congress. you look at washington politicians, they hate each other. hi the democrats hate the republicans. liberals hate the conservatives. we have got to change our thinking. if there is a group out there just throw them the hell out. [crowd cheers] [crowd chanting] mr. trump: we cannot let our first amendments -- we cannot let our first amendment rights be taken away from us. we can't let it happen. we have a right to speak. we are law abiding people. we are people who work very hard. we have built this country and made this country great. and we are all to

we were. it is time we make them listen.'t need to hesitate or talk about the idea of the pipeline or fracking. what we need is somebody who will listen. i'm not going to vote against the patriot act once, i'm going to vote against it twice. we need someone who has bold leadership who can understand with climate change, with health care, with education, with our future at stake that we need bold leadership from someone we can trust. someone who has stood up for justice his entire life. they have not listened to him, but we are. and we need to keep spreading that message, because people are voting against themselves. they are hurting themselves and their future. and we need to help them. we need to help them and each other, because this is about us. not me. it's not one person. it's not just a party. it's not the g.o.p. versus the d.n.c. this is about the 99% that is too big to fail against the 1%. so when i hear someone ask me, well, well, well, if it comes down to it, will you vote for the other candidate if it's trump? i s

how we innovate, how we figure things out, how we understand the universe, how we dig into the fundamentals of pure science, how we learn how to apply them, how we develop the kinds of solutions, commercializations, innovations that are going to make our lives better in the short term and surprise us in the long term with changes that we didn't see coming. these are things that really matter. canada has a long history of cooperation with nasa. i remember a physics professor of mine pointing out, because he had worked on a couple of space programs at one point -- nasa astronauts love having canadian scientists down because we're really good at building redundancies into things that get sent up. and i said, well, why is that? he goes, i think it's because of the winter. we know if something's going to make it through the winter, it really has to be built solidly, and there's an expectation of, you know, winter is coming. yeah, never mind. i didn't make a "game of thrones" reference. but how we engage in pushing the limits of human knowledge, of challenging ourselves, of understanding that our

and only we take a break after two. if we have an extended session as we do. i just want to come back to a point that will it still most everything that's been asked. i was trying to get at the start, which is whether you accept that some of the claims you been making, even in recent weeks in some cases in speeches, and easily mislead people? wouldn't it be better to qualify these remarks much more carefully? i will just take you through a few of them. just now you said that immigration has a huge downward impact on wages. as far as i'm aware that's extremely controversial issue. very difficult to pin down certainly in agriculture. >> hang on a minute. i'm going to give you a chance all than to point. >> you said that, you said that there would not be any economic shock even in the short term of brexit even though your advisors said leaving the eu would be an economic shock based on activity. you said that in a speech very recently in darfur that 400 pounds would be added come with being added to the cost of food of every household. but if you listen to that y

we hit first, hit hard and we don't stop because if we don't take that action, if we remain a punchingbag for these folks everything that is dear to us, family faith, flag, neighborhood, all of those things will mean nothing. they will mean absolutely nothing. and we might as well all go out and buy ourselves on a lated rug, bed sheets and headwear because we need to be able to defend ourselves. we need to be able to have as much passion and hunger and desire to win as our enemies do. we need to be able to match the fervor that would seek to diminish america. we need to match them, and baldness, and strength, and strategy, in all of those things and that's what my book, we take it america, "retaking america: crushing political correctness" does. it lays out a clear strategy to retake america and crush political correctness and reasserting the american idea. involves engaging in the cultural war and one of the fabulous things about how capitalist society is that if we don't like something, we don't have to watch it. if there is a radio host we don't like or a television anchor we don't

>> what we did to telephone and long-distance we had everyone say to us we don't mind if we have a competitor if certain things are done so we had the checklist and they can get into the long-distance business and the cable guys could come compete. i will speak for the senator but to have more competitors with more opportunity and the investment to the benefit of the average consumer in america. >> with paranoia inducing and to do that cable companies could not provide a full service and phone cannot provide cable so we had to break down all of the monopolies to say every company can do everything then go to it to. you don't know the losers except for the consumer that we would unleash. from that moment on, 1. $4 trillion went into the sector no longer the rotary dial telephone. and to get those services that is what changed the marketplace. we don't know if google would win or pets.com but there were more winners than losers but jack and i in 1993 had already a partner with the democrats to be in control and a repast this law in 1994 the telecommunications act of 1994. it was killed in the s

we knew exactly what we wanted to do. we weren't going to raise taxes. we were going to cut taxes. people said, well that's just crazy. you can't do it. i said just watch. so they were all in the room and i said i want to give you a little bit of advice. i'm going to sketch out a little bit of what i need. i'm going to be driving a bus and i expect you to get on the bus because if you don't get on the bus i'm going to run over you with my bus. it created so much consternation in the state they thought i was talking to the people but i was talking to the special interests because they are the very ones that block you because they are preservers of the status quo. we can't have the status quo in america any longer. just shake it up. okay? [applause] >> how about somebody on this -- way in the back, ma'am. right here. this lady right here. sir, do not fall out that window or we'll never forgive ourselves. okay? and that would be a real pain, wouldn't it? all right. not working with the jokes. okay. go ahead. >> okay. governor, i've heard you make the statement with respect to marriage

we can't watch everything in the world. we can share what we see.that the response to horrific acts like this have to be with determination, not to let the terrorists get us off of what we have to be about which is supporting our values, living our lives. we have to workday and night on the military front which we're doing in many places right now on the financial front to cut them off both the leaders and the resources. but we can't let them stop us from leading our lives. >> rose: back to cuba for a moment. congress passed those economic sanctions and congress will have to change that policy. do you see any receptivity. >> it's interesting. first i think we have worked i think very much within the law to do what we can do to normalize and open up. but we've made clear without a change of law without changing the embargo, without changing the libertada we can't make it truly normal. i'm not going to sit here and predict when congress might do something but i think a willingness on the part of many, not everyone but many to recognize the policy the

we were asked and the powerpoint-there we go-we were asked to give a brief description of services we provide in san francisco unified working with our transjnder gender exspanseive students and to do that we thought we would take a look at the data we have to support our work. we are san francisco unified is a cdc sponsored financed city for of our programs and as such we implement the youth risk behavior survey annually since september of 1990. the most recent survey as you can see here, we reached 68 percent of our middle school student and 82 percent of our high school across all of our high schools and this randomized sample. we also in looking at our demo graphics, we have probably national ly the best consistent data over the past 20 years looking at our sexual orientation and gender yite identity. in terms of middle school for sexual orientation the glb and not sure which we count as q is there and the gender identity we have 5 administrations on two different surveys of our students and we have consistently been at about 1 percent of our middle school students identifies as t

we don't elect images. we don't elect momentum. we elect a human being. we better pick someone who knows what he's doing. who is committed to the strongest and most important elements and one who sees the experience and knows what he is doing. john: thank you. finally, mr. gary hart. one thing i hear people say is that i don't know much about gary hart. is there truth to your that you arearges spending just more and more time hart?gary instead of outlining things in your election? hart: that is a good question at this stage in the race. let me point out to facts. i have been a united states senator for two years. when george mcgovern said, he doesn't know what the new ideas are, i have to remind him that last fall, i send them a copy of the book that i wrote and a stack of papers about that high. i have the campaigns of all these other people. the other thing is, these primaries are happening fast. i opposed the way this calendar was set up. i wish i had three weeks to campaign in florida and georgia and alabama, because i am convinced, the ideas that i h

we need ships to invest, we need investment in structure, we need to investment in structure, we need to work with the providers for the power and getting all of those things to come together is not always easy. it would be essential to really youit would be essential to really have that common goal and to recognize that while we may compete with each other to get the cruise ships to call there, we will not be competing on the he will environment. place to a robin: so the more we can create a provide an environment like that, the better. and in vancouver, we have a program where we provide reduction -- the fees that ships pay for the port, for those who use more than the legal minimum. if they are burning cleaner fuel, meeting different standards, they get a reduction. and it is helping us meet these clean energy targets. that itself has been recognize by branson. and endorsed as one of the global leading practices. the transition to a clean air economy will require getting the policies right to ensure that industry has the right incentives to expand and make long-term investments int

we have all joined him. one day, we hope we will have a president that can find that into law.e want to go back to where maryland's future is. we have great assets here in our state. i think it is time for us to talk aspirational he and do the hard work of bringing advanced manufacturing job back to the united states by incentivizing that research and developing and tying it to manufacturing, the way it was for the better part of the 20th century until we got away from that. when we do that we will create jobs throughout baltimore, throughout maryland, and all across our country. vic: this will be our last question. it will come from dan roderick's. dan: after listening to your answers in this another candidate for an ash can do forms, some voters may wonder what distinguishes between the two of you. between your views on government, how are you different from your opponent in the coming primary? rep. van hollen: as you say, there are not huge differences in the voting records, but there are big differences. when i talked to my constituents and hear the issues they bring to me,

if we don't, we go to rma information. we are not satisfied that that's an appropriate enough or correct, then we have empowered our state committees to basically take a look and provide some direction. so we think we have some degree of predictability and consistency without creating a circumstance where we can't address the anomaly or inaccuracy of information. i'm more than happy to go back to the team and basically make sure we're in a position to be able to explain why we're making the decisions we're making and if we can't, we obviously need to do something different. >> my understanding is it's currently in the the inner agency review. if, in fact, the state committee is empowered to make a decision, i think that's where we need to go. again, it's making sure you're giving discretion in the field to your directors to make a good decision. >> well, that's the key. a good decision we don't necessarily want to create a circumstance where everybody is not happy with whatever it is they ultimately get because then you cr

however, we are looking at how we can do a better job as we move forward. then based on that, to be able to have the coordination between the programs. but it's essential that we are able to produce and i wouldn't be up here telling you that without any question, i believe this approach that over time to transition to the young growth is the solution to be able for us to continue to provide the integrated wood products industry in southeast alaska. yes, we are going to have to continue to have the bridge timber. we are also going to have to be moving forward with some young growth to be able to start giving operators the chance to be able to explore markets with that young growth. so that is our course. that is our plan over time to be able to do this. >> i understand that it is a plan over time and again, i am trying to make something that works beyond the paper plan, because on paper, it might be possible but again, you can't push this young growth timber to grow any quicker. you cannot be a fantasy plan. it has to be based on accurate analysis and assess

we are were -- we are worried about laws and we cannot waterboard. they are chopping off heads and drowning people in steel cages. what you were president, would you say about winning the war? mr. trump: i would be very optimistic and tough on terror. much tougher than what we are right now. we are not playing on the same field. no laws. they kill people, they don't talk about it. they don't worry about the law. we do something a little harsh and that soldier or whoever loses his pension and loses his life. the samet playing by rules. they are playing dirty stuff. we can't do anything. waterboarding, nothing nice about it, but it is a minimal form. we have to go tougher. it is eating up the world. the world is weak and ineffective. what is happening in germany is unbelievable. what is happening in a small part of sweden is unbelievable. a lot of people are saying donald trump was right. you know that and i know that. i don't want to be right about it. i want to be wrong about it. senator cruz thought we should have police patrols. you said you though

the way we need it to run and, you know, we can't rely on - we have to be able to have it good enough that everyone wanted to get rid of their car but i don't own a car i've not owned one my adult life it is a delicate balance it make sense to raise fees where there are opportunities to raise fees there is obviously political issues around adding more parking and sticker areas we saw how that went down the hate and in the commercial and increasing more meters there is a balance we have to strike but at the same time, i think a lot of these things make sense in terms of of what we can do and explore other things from partitions is make sense and everything should be on this table but an issue the premium service issue does strike me as - i cannot afford to pay more money. >> i think that you know looking at investigating o two tier services are questionable so thank you. >> thank you for your clarification. >> jim the unbalanced issue kcmo i don't know if you discussed it but director reiskin this is a policy matter for the board there are actually things that gives us an treerld oppor

we either have a country or we do not. we have borders or we do not. [applause] one quart -- or two more questions. reporter: there is a monkeywrench at the state level -- mr. trump: ok, go ahead. reporter: should they commit to honoring their agreement with you? rnc, imp: i like the don't know if i have been treated fairly or not. but i do respect them. what i do have is a great number of people. i have millions and millions of people. when i was watching those of broadcast a little while ago before i wanted to exactly where we were before i started speaking, i was amazed at the numbers. republicans have enormous energy, the democrats don't. there are numbers are through the roof. people are making statements they have never seen in modern times, a party that was so energized. i think if someone is doing as well as i am doing, and i am not just speaking for myself, but if i am going to win 5 -- i already 15 -- it could be nine. if i am going to win all of states, and at- it is awfully hard to say that is not the person we want to lead the party. quest

we were rich then, we had nothing but money. we had nothing but power. far more than we have today.n a true sense. i think nato, you have to really examine nato. it does not really help us it is , helping other countries. i don't think those other countries appreciate what we are doing. john: just to be clear -- you made two slightly different arguments, i want to clarify. one was that you want to see the u.s. pay less into nato. donald trump: definitely. john: but it is possible that nato is obsolete. donald trump: i would certainly look at it. i would want help from others. one thing definitely, we are paying too much. as to whether or not it is obsolete, i will determine that . mark: up next, more with our interview with donald trump including thoughts about using nuclear weapons against the islamic state. ♪ ♪ donald trump: i think i would be very late compared to my opponents that are running. people do not realize, i know a lot of people like to say, he actually was for the iraq war. i was against the iraq war. many months before it started, i was like, i don't know. this is th

we want to be learning until the day that we die and we also understand -- [applause] we also understand that in a competitive global economy, we need the best educated workforce in the world. we are thinking outside the box and this is about asking a simple question. how does it happen that when we need the best educated workforce, we got hundreds of thousands of bright, qualified young people who cannot go to college for one reason: their families like the income. that is crazy! [applause] you know, today a college degree in many respects is the equivalent of what a high school degree was 50 years ago. 50 years ago, you got a high school degree, you can go out and get yourself a pretty damn good job. that was a lot of education back then. the world has changed. the economy has changed. [applause] needanders: people today more education than they used to. and that is why i believe that when we talk about public 2016, it's not good enough to talk about first grade through 12th grade. we have got to make public colleges and universities tuition-free!

we are good at, we want to be able to be free to buy so that we don't have make it ourselves, things that other people are good and and integrate those. we talked yesterday about a lunar village on the moon and expertise with public-private partnerships, so there's a lot of expertise and not only in technology. some of it is in finance, some of it is using and some barriers for true national security concerns, but there should not be erected so high that we can't do work together. >> also to your question, i don't think it's up to the united states to tell other countries what technologies they should be developing, if they have to think just like we have to think strategically about what our technologies for national security purposes or this is the expertise we want to develop and bring those to the table. other countries need to figure out what technologies they want to develop and bring to the table. for example, canada spoke on robotics, we are going to be the guys that do robotics and they bring the technology to the table and bring as their way to integrate into whatever proje

we are not yet to that point, marc. we are safer than we were on september 10th. we, however, are less safe than we were in 2011, 2012, 2013. so if that's what you meant by your question, the answer is, yes, we are kind of going through the same cycle. now, in terms of what it is we do about it, i try to do this extended metaphor on morning joe two days ago, and i only had three minutes. [laughter] so here's the metaphor. if you take everything marc just talked about, why didn't you do this to the guy, why didn't you told it, how come the belgians can't do wiretaps, how far do you want to put out the metal detectors from the airport now, right? let's think of soccer. we just had ab argument about -- an argument about stopping penalty kicks. or at a minimum, we need a bigger, stronger, faster goalie because somebody just put the thing in the back of the net. and here's the point i would go to the europeans with. the trend line is when something like this happens, you start talking about goalies, all right? how come you didn't know it was this guy? how come you didn

we tried to cover as much as we could. i don't know we left much out.e want to energize the youth, the industry and certainly we want to energize the decision makers that really can have an impact on what we do in the space industry and keep the path forward and keep the path upward and with that i turn it over to jamie to take questions. thank you. >> so we're going to go to our q and a part of the news conference now and i've done a lot of news makers. i never made it a family affair. my son william is on break from college today so he's going to pass around the microphone so what i would like to do is for the reporters in the room if you have a question raise your hand and then i'll ask you to identify your name and your news organization and then we'll go to some of the questions from the phone as well. so, yes, down here. >> lots of white papers written about space policy over the years. what are you doing to get this to the candidates particularly the presidential candidates who said very little about space policy in the campaign so far and get th

we, i'm sure, we will have many questions for you, but if we make we would like to proceed with our colleagues to make brief statements about their own perspectives, and then we will have a q&a discussion. next, would you kindly go over there? >> it's on. ladies and gentlemen, first of all i would like to take this opportunity to thank the organizers of this important event, and thank you for hosting me to speak on this important subject to all of us, that terrorism that has affected all of our lives, and combating terrorism is also a personal matter to me as i lost members of my family and my friends who were brutally killed by terrorists in my own city of benghazi and libya. i cannot agree more with the remarks of general william. it's true that stabilizing and secure nations is the only way to have a sustainable defeat to terrorism. and i think the world has to, the international community has to support weak nations to lead security, to reach stability, and that's the only way to have a sustainable defeat to terrorism. i will start by saying also that terrorism is mainly a tactic, and targ

we even realize -- than we even realize before.t it is better resourced and cable -- and capable than we realize. tom: please be safe in brussels. richard ashworth. we have an update from vonnie quinn. vonnie: some official briefings, tom through the belgian prosecutor officially to the belgian king is briefing reporters right now. he says they cannot give an official death toll from the explosions yet, but they did say that one explosion was probably a suicide bomber. he is saying there were two explosions at the brussels airport departure areas, and another at the maelbeek metro station downtown. a military presence has been reinforced in brussels and the terror threat has been raised to the highest level of four. getting headlines from the prosecutor, the most official word from the prosecutor is that we cannot get a death toll from the explosions yet, and that the allstigators are checking cctv footage. one explosion at the airport was probably a suicide bomber. tom: vonnie quinn, thank you. we will have much more from our brus

we don't know.h egypt air on their twitter feed are saying one of their planes has been highjacked. also people on twitter based there saying the local ministers of defense, foreign affairs and transport have rushed to the airport. the airport has now, and these are unconfirmed reports. the airport has now been declared closed. there are also other reports that the highjacker, singular, or highjackers, plural, has allowed women and children with egyptian nationality to disembark the aircraft. we cannot confirm that yet. it's unclear whether there were 81, 82, or 65 passengers on board. there were seven crew members. it's an air bus a320 it landed at 8:46. we have an earlier report saying the pilot or somebody on the flight deck declared an emergency. joining us now on the line from athens is free-lance journalist what are you hearing? >> reporter: well, we can confirm from the cyprus foreign ministries that the plane was indeed highjacked this egypt arizona liner, it landed and from we are hearing a

we need free trade but we need fair trade. and when we see violations out there.t act unilaterally to protect people's jobs. and be careful about it. because you just don't want to swing around and not know what you are talking about. but in the case of south korea, we should have stopped the imports immediately. so we have to be global, nobout. we have to have better rules when it comes to trade. but then, when people violate them, then we have got to hold them accountable for it okay? [cheers and applause] >> what about, governor, where someone doesn't violate the rules but a company like one in indiana airconditioning company decide to move all their businesses to mexico and presumably because they can find cheaper labor and then it wipes out a town in indiana because it's not just the employees losing their jobs but all the people, where they spent their money it hurts the industry in the town? what do you do about this. >> we had one big company that was going to move and i don't want to get into it. it's easy to call names. i told them if you are going to mo
