mr. burns: -- charlie: of us? mr. s: of us and others whether you are talking about lebanon, syria, yemen, iraq. but that is not the same thing as saying that you recognize in the short term they need to push back against the iranians. over the longer term, what you are hoping to create is an opportunity for a different kind of iran with a different outlook that will be a big, ambitious regional power in the middle east, but understand that you have to play by certain rules of the road. charlie: do have sympathy for the secretary of state, when he wants to mediate differences and saudian and qatar arabia? they basically said to the people, you have to shut down al jazeera. we are not going to send planes into your capital, we are not going to do all these things. we are not going to trade with you, we will destroy this relationship. mr. burns: that is the capitulation, not a lifting of reconciliation. charlie: why would they go that far? is it a bargaining tool? or are they just trying to crush qatar? mr. burns: i thin

mr. burns: i think the idea of america -- by that i mean the sense of respect and dignity -- when we are at our best, the political and economic openness that is attached to us, the sense of enlightened self-interest that has driven her foreign policy at its best. 17 years ago this month, the marshall plan was launched, the best example i know of enlightened self-interest, a sense that our own self-interest was best served by encouraging others to share in the same kind of enterprise. charlie: rather than we gain, they lose. mr. burns: right. today i worry there is more of an emphasis on the self part than the reliant part. you have travel to get. is the world changing -- traveled a bit. is the world changing in terms of the way they see us? mr. burns: there was a pew poll in the last day that shows a people'snt drop in positive impressions, especially their impression of president trump. there is going to be a certain amount of resentment of american power and leadership in the world, but that

mr. burns: thank you for this opportunity to testify. i appreciate very much the bipartisan commitment your committee has shown to investigate russia's interference in your elections and our elections. there's no doubt about russia's systematic campaign to undermine our 2016 presidential election, the montneg ran, dutch and french lech this is year and russia is seeking to reduce the confidence that the citizens of othese countries have in their democracies. in this sense, russia's actions pose an exist ten rble threat to the democratic -- an exiss ten rble threat to the democratic nations of the west and it requires a swift response. you asked for our recommendations, mr. chairman, and i have just three. first, the united states and europe need to work much more closely together to identify russia's cyber and disinformation attacks as they are being launched and then we need to work together actually to do something about it. to respond in tandem to discredit russia's actions. you saw the camp

[laughter] >> mr. burns the clerk will substitute the amendment. i'll consider it read and the gentleman is recognized for five minutes. >> thank you. i appreciate the gentlemen's interest in making sure we have transparency in government. my amendment would broaden the scope of transparency that the gentlemen's amendment seeks but does not achieve because it is exclusively focused on the president and his immediate family. my substitute amendment requires the department of defense to provide report at the time of the president's budget request on both direct and indirect travel costs incurred to support the president, the vice president and all members of the president's cabinet. by reporting, congress can exercise appropriate oversight rather than targeting the legitimacy of the presidents lifestyle. further the amendment is very onerous, forcing the department to report congress which which is every 90 days. my amendment will support the full transparency while this amendment is not. i yield back. >> he is recognized on the substitute amendment.

mr. burns: i thank the gentleman for yielding, i'm proud to rise in support of this strong, bipartisan legislation. improving career and technical education programs is the most important thing congress can do to help close the skills gap, combat poverty, and help put americans back to work. studies clearly show that there are unfilled, high-wage jobs out there that remain open because people lack the skills to fill the jobs. that's where c.t.e. comes in. when i was chancellor of alabama's two-year college system i saw firsthand how important these programs are. they work like magic, taking an untrained worker and getting him the skill he is needs to fill an unfilled job. it's a win-win for everyone. i'm prud to be an original co-sponsor of this legislation. i encourage my colleagues to join me in supporting this reform oriented bill that heps bill the 1st century work force and -- work force and i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: mr. thompson reserves. the gentleman from illinois. mr. kris

mr. burns's lawyer from "the simpsons," jay sekulow. ( applause ) ( piano riff ) jay sekulow was on all theows -- cbs, cnn, nbc, fox news, "animal planet," and "the handmaid's tale." ( laughter ) so powerful. such a powerful portrayal. and had one clear message -- >> the fact of the matter is the president has not been and is not under investigation. the president is not under investigation. the president has not been and is not under investigation. >> stephen: okay, clear as a bell. the president absolutely, positively is not being investigated by the department of justice. i'm sorry, you wanted to add something. >> he's being investigated by the department of justice. >> stephen: sekuloooowwww!!! ( cheers and applause ) oh! you had one job!! you had one job!! say he's not under investigation. but you had to shoot your mouth off on tv. you're the president trump of trying to keep president trump president, and chris wallace noticed. >> first of all, you've now said that he is getting investigated after saying that you didn't. >> no. >> you-- you just said, sir, that he's being-- >> no, he'

burns: that was president obama. senator rish: he has admitted he talked to mr. putin about that, is that correct? ambassador burns: so, you heard my testimony about president obama. great respect for president obama. this was a difficult decision. i think that president obama with the benefit of hindsight should have acted more resolutely, quickly, to be transparent with the american people. did he take action. what disturbs me about president trump is that he's not investigating, has taken no action. senator risch: got that. i'm talking about somebody that could have done something about this while it was going on. you are aware that president obama talked to mr. putin about that, are you not, in the sum irof 2016? ambassador burns: that's what the news reports say. i also know the obama administration briefed the eight senior members of congress early on. there were public statements made by jeh johnson on october 7. they did take action. it's not as if the obama administration just was silent on this issue. senator risch: indeed, when mr. -- when president obama told mr. putin that we knew that

mr. ash burn, this the agreement as you understand it? mr.burn, is this the agreement that you understand? >> yeah. >> i'm sorry? >> yeah. >> i can't hear you, mr. ashburn. can you speak up, please? >> yes. >> as aaron struggles to speak, his mother makes her opinion clear. >> the record will note that his mother has left the room. mr. ashburn, do you have some reluctance to enter into this agreement? is there a reason why you're refusing to respond? >> how would you feel if your mother walked out on you? >> sorry, sir? >> how would you feel if your mother walked out on you? >> aaron's refusal or inability to speak forces the judge to decide for him. >> we'll reconvene on december 18th at 9:00. be prepared to go forward with the waiver. i won't accept any agreements. >> the judge's decision eliminates aaron's chance at a plea bargain. his next court appearance will be a waiver hearing where the state will make a case for handing aaron over to the adult system. still, that's not the main thing on aaron's mind. >> she walked out on me. she walk

mr. filkins: burn everything.n interview to a historian,n official and he was talking about counterinsurgency. there he is, quoting, you know, angela ashes, south africa, desmond tutu. that is what is so interesting about him because he is so well read, and everybody that i talked to who knew him say "i wish you could see his library." charlie: more books than any general that ever served in america. [laughter] mr. filkins: yes. this is a deeply educated secretary. charlie: having been with the guy, having listened to his quotes, having had many conversations with him, what influence is he going to have? mr. filkins: a lot. i mean, a lot. berlie: how will america different because he is our secretary of defense? mr. filkins: he is very aggressive. ll, he is a general. i think he reaches for his gun, and i think that is -- if you talk to people around him, they will say "what we are doing is reestablishing the american deterrent." if you mess with us, you're going to pay a price. in their criticism of president oba

. >> the gentleman from alabama, mr. burns is recognized. >> the task force report called for 52 small surface combatants and that report has not been amended by the navy. the navy clearly has stated through that report, and it needs these ships. it was before the sub committee in april and talked about how he is presently using those ships in the south china sea, where it fulfills a very important part of the mission. now why produce these at three -- at a level of three per year? we had admiral nagley before the subcommittee a couple of months ago and he said funding three lcs ships a year is critical to maintaining cost and schedule efficiency. those were his words and lcs is on budget and below the cost cap. both shipyards are efficiently produced in the ship. the two shipyards cannot continue without funding three ships a year. that's also the navy's conclusion. three ships not only maintains a healthy industrial base because without three ships, the skilled workforce will suffer a 10% to 40% layoff, result in an extended

i'd like to hear any of your comments of that, starting with you and mr. burns. >> senator, just two quick points. first i don't have any independent knowledge about the trump campaign working with -- >> i'm not asking that. i'm just asking whether his comments about elections being rigged, calling on wikileaks, it appeared and mr. watts drew the on collusion that at least inadvertently then candidate trump was then aligned with some of russia's propaganda efforts trying to sew the same kind of chaos and questioning of our democratic process. >> i thought it was just as important to say i don't have information. but when candidate trump did encourage the russian government to find more of secretary clinton's e-mails, i thought that was an irresponsible statement. >> anybody else want to comment? you're taking a safe diplomatic effort, all of you. i appreciate that. i imagine i would get the same response because i again share very much ambassador burns your comments earlier that the lack of interest shown by the president of even acknowledging this threat or tak

. >> mr. burns. >> thank you mr. chairman, thank you for being patience with us. if you don't mind i would like to go back to the questions that we have earlier of the size of our fleet. our president, our commander in chief, says he knows we need 350 ships so we know where we want to go. the congressional budget office gave us an is estimate to build0 navy ships, general, let me start with you, do you agree in general with cbo analysis is what more of what we need to spend per year on ships building. >> i have seen that study and it looks about right based on my experience. >> looking at this year's budget after you heard the questioning from chairman wittman, we know that we are not going in that direction with proposed budget for 2018. at what point in your estimation general are we going to get to the point where we are pointing that extra $5 billion to get to the size of fleet we are trying to get to. >> no chairman, thank you for asking that question. my characterization of 18 is the second year in a row and we begin to turn around a trend that was really se

mr. obama as well. it burns up so much political capital he could have used el wer and elsewhere. is mr. trump ready to do the same >> the real fix for the economy is tax reform which has not been touched since the reagan administration and infrastructure investment. you can't get to those until you deal with health care. we put the flag up say let's fix t move on, get to tax reform and then infrastructure. i think we have a great way of moving the economy forward >> the ambitions of mr. ryan and other republicans, the ambition of the white house, they don't seem aligned at the moment >> right it isn't to the outside observer. but somebody sooner or later will have to step in and say done let's move on, change the language, get some people to fix this this is a tough back drop for you, you pulled your product from 2018. let's talk about what you are doing at the moment. when i put in aetna, i put in news flow, you are upsetting a lot of people in hartford as well you're moving hq out of hartford, connecticut? >> we are. we have not told anybody where yet. but it will be an investme

and they could see the smoke and fire from the white house burning, from the naval yard burning across the city. mrs. thornton wrote about it in her diary. thanks to missus thorton's diary we know the two women stood here , and watched washington burn. martha peter was pregnant with britannia at the time. britannia would be born about four months later after this event. now if we can look at the dining table, presently it is focused with a number of objects that thomas and martha peter purchased at the 1802 mount vernon sale. you see a number of plates and other tableware have those stickers on them, mount vernon as well as the numbers from the 1911 inventory. the plates, the plateau, the glassware, all of these are pieces that came for mount vernon and were used at tudor place by the peter family. after britannia's death in 1911, her grandson purchased his siblings' share to own the home outright. he and his wife modernized the house in adding electricity, 1913-1914, telephones, and a steam radiator system. we can take a look in the office, which was a space that armistead peter junior and his son

mr. sessions' decision to recuse himself from the investigation. he gave way to appointment of robert mueller. a senior white house official said the president has not stopped burning sessions. >>> president trump's tweeting for months has left his staff trying to keep pace with the boss. "wall street journal" reported aids organizations -- organized an official twitter intervention explaining certain kind of comments made on twitter would paint him into a corner. on may 7th the journal reported one major change under consideration would see the president's social media posts vetted by a team of lawyers to see if they needed to be curtailed. so the tweets don't go from the president's mind out to the universe. the importance of president's access to social media has divided his supporters. >> this obsession with covering everything on twitter and little -- >> that's his preferred method of communication with the american people. >> that's not true. >> i think social media for the president is extremely important. it gives him the ability to speak directly to the people without the bisz of the media filtering those communications. at this point he has over 100 plus

. >> pigs in a blanket, burn like bacon. >> all put mr. burgess up against sean hannity. he'll tear them up. i want you to talk to them whether their independent or whether they are republican. i want you to arguee with them and get in their face. >> the press always asked me don't i wish i were debating you? no, i wish i could take them behind the gym. >> i will fight every day until he is impeached. impeached 45. >> a lot of us thought the broncos going to be our saving grace. when he is about to nuke finland or something. she's going to walk into the bedroom and say daddy. [laughter] don't do it, daddy. >> it is a weird attention. it's a dangerous time for the first amendment and for the free press in this country in the same time, we are oddly influential with the guy that wants to kill us. >> how dare he say that? how dare he say the things he does? of course i want to punch him in the face. >> hannity: the psychotic viciousness, these threats of violence from the left, it needs to stop. i've been saying this for years and for all you left-wing clinton groups that al

mr. quinn: i will say this. ofas very much in favor congresswoman lack burns bill because it does things that are most important to at&t. one is that everybody has to live under the same rules. in a world where you are seeing is this almost collide, you follow the website companies, that may be how google and these others started. there are way more website companies today. they look a lot like us. google has a video product in the marketplace. it won't be long before they have their own aggregated bundle of content that is not historic looking. all of these companies should operate under the same rules. that has in one of our main contentions all along. it is because it does not matter. who isn't matter collecting it. at the end of the day if we have rules around location i should have the same roles that google has or that amazon has or that facebook has. blackbirds bill says that. they put all that regulation in the federal trade commission. we will have the same rules and be in the same regulatory environment. when the difficulties is what agency is regulating here and one over there, there can be disparate

one victim if the house stated she broke up with her boyfriend who threatened to burn the house down and we identified mrcopes. >> and they found the back deck engulfed in flames on tuesday and they pounded on the door and woke up the adults and children living there and they ruled the fire arson right away after a gas can was found at the scene. >> police are hoping to hear from someone that knows where copes is or that he turn himself in. >> trish thank you. >>> well, there has been at least 10 battery thefts from jeeps recently in the spring garden section of philadelphia. randy fitzgerald says her battery was stolen a few weeks ago and old jeep models only have latches to on the hood making it easy to get the battery. >> my key would not work and i went to unlock the car and it still wouldn't start. went to walk away thinking my battery is dead we'll take the other car and realize the latches were open. >> we reached out to jeep about the issue and they had no comment and we did research of our own and they manufacture a hood lock for the wrangler it costs $163. >>> a new hotel is coming to chester.

mr. speaker exhausted from their work in going into burning buildings to see people i said why do you come here with when you know is a difficult? because we are firefighters. that's what we are trying to do and that's why we serve the public the way we do. we need to have greater security for all of them the future. after properly fund our fire service is not just at a time of crisis. i welcome the fact there's a public inquiry going on into grenfell but can't we -- it's kind it to install sprinklers in all town blocks but with minimal safety services cannot -- so will the government make available emergency funds to restore sprinklers? the government should commit to public safety bill in the recommendations the 2013 inquiries and the fire at lacma house and removed her car and to install sprinklers and new school buildings. it could still do so and it would do so additional to any other recommendations that come from the grenfell fire inquiry. >> we have 116 and my constituency. the moment only eight would have sprinklers. it will cost 30 million pounds per sprinklers and all of them. w

one of the things i want to burns, whos that mr.as the former editor of the detroit news, one of the guiding partners with wayne state, he told me we have to create this program to get young minorities into the newspapers. i told him that i was not interested in running a remedial program for colored kids. we decided to do is adopting idea that we are going to get the best and brightest. we won to remove the stigma of the fact that journalists of color are less than white journalists. one of the things that always strived for is that i will know we have arrived when we can take a journalist of color -- black, brown, hispanic, what have you -- that journalists can screw up in the most royal way possible and that hailed as the next journalists of color because that is not the standard for our white colleagues. that program has produced some great journalists. is called the journalism institute for media diversity. it has produced great journalists and it's all about getting the opportunity to show what you can do and be the best you c

mr. brigham, who was caught in the fire and burned to senders. with the fire died outcome of the accounting occurred. at least six lives were lost. more than 2500 buildings were destroyed. property losses were conservatively estimated in 1852 at $10 million, which would be about 500 million dollars today. but sacramento almost immediately began rebuilding. even if the mountains of debris smoldered, and this was a characteristic of gold rush california -- fire was common, but rebuilding was just as common. these are photographs here at the top of sacramento after the fire, with intuitive months after the fire. these are buildings that have then rebuilt. even as the town was smoldering, new stores andl hotels and liveries and residences that spring to life, and by december 1852, just a month after the fire, sacramento was back in business. this was a pattern repeated throughout the age. the sacramento inferno was not the first and certainly not the igniting the region, and from the era's genesis, fire was a plague in gold rush california and a recu

mr. tahiri: playing with land and playing tempers is like when you play with matches. easily you can burnr fingers. this is no game here. there is a need to set, to revoke this -- this agreement, to start new process. >> we travel to montenegro on the other side of the rugova mountains. at the interior ministry, we can see the border treaty. revisions are out of the question. mr. paunovic: the matter was done and dusted when the treaty was signed. in article 12, the foreign and interior ministers of both countries explicitly state that the treaty has been concluded in mutual accord. the treaty is a done deal. >> but the treaty does also guarantee that all kosovans will continue to enjoy free access to the fields and forests of the region. the dreshaj brothers don't believe this will be the case. the old wounds are open and mistrust of neighbors still active more than two decades after the balkan wars. michelle: should marijuana be legal? it's an issue being explored in a growing number of european countries. while the netherlands is known for its coffee shops and germany has recently lega

across information about family,uman's ancestral that is his mother's home was burned and they were banished? did they -- mr. stiles: i ran across this at another time. the first time that harry truman in the 20th century makes a trip into kansas, his grandmother says, look for the spoons that bj hawkers stole. and he himself -- that the jayhawkers stall. and he himself admires jesse james. >> i heard they were part of that interest group. mr. stiles: they were in jackson county, i believe. that is certainly where he was from personally. they might have been uprooted. the depopulation did not last long because it was such a radical policy, the union decided, ok, you got to let them go back. if they had kept them out, it might have tamped down the guerrilla warfare. i will take the next question behind a cause you have been waiting longer. >> it struck me as this was almost genocidal in intense. think that's an accurate way of describing guerrilla warfare, at least semi-genocidal? mr. stiles: genocide is tough. that usually means targeting a specific group for extermination. we have the term ethnic cleansing

mrs. a 12—year—old boy? as well as the smoke and the smell of burning, numb shock and tension hangs over this area.tury, in a country with some of the strictest fire regulations in the world, a desperate tragedy like this just should not happen. what floor are you on?! huh?! seven, yeah? well into the morning, the crowds watching the horror unfold in front of them reported seeing people still trapped in the block. i saw somebody there. waving, in white. in a white shirt? yeah, a white shirt, yeah. a man was eventually brought out by the emergency services at noon. this off—duty nurse helped tend to some of the injured rescued from the building. i've seen some things, but today... i can't even describe it. there's mothers that have come out and lost their children. there are firefighters that have come out injured. that we don't know if they would even come out safe. people have lost their homes, children have seen things, people jumping out the window. we just need to rebuild as a community now. this is a neighbourhood that feels ignored. there's anger on the streets. people demanding answers. this

and heart burn after mr. divine. steve: after what happened?was responsible. steve: just a little crazy. ainsley: guy who does interviews on top of his head? very casual guy. brian: i don't know where i put them. let me check the monitor. steve: talk a little bit about giving the harsh rhetoric some of the unusual things that bernie sanders and elizabeth warren said last night on a facebook live telecast. we will talk about that in a minute. in the meantime our lead story otto warmbier, the 22-year-old from the university of virginia has died. ainsley: wow, gosh. this story -- we interviewed his parents when they hadn't heard in from him in 17, 18 months. is he in north korea traveling on a college trip. tries to take a propaganda poster, and is thrown in prison, and apparently they beet him to death. he comes back to the u.s. in a coma, in a vegetative state and died yesterday at 2:20 p.m. brian: this outlaw regime has to be unearthed, stopped, and this leader has got to be taken out. the president might have the same feelings but did he not e

mr. president, i would just simply say that i'm proposing that instead of this which is a, sensually burning down the house in american terms of healthcare, that you instead join with us and what you've admitted is one costs in this country is what we want to tackle, mr. president, we want to bring down the cost.e we want to bring downre out-of-pocket cost of drugs for everyone whose co-pays and premiums are too high. that we want to do. taking away nursing homes, care, the ability for a parent to take the child to a doctor, someone with cancer, to get the treatment they need or smallex business owner to be blocked from getting healthcare because of pre-existing condition, we consider that burning down the house, we are opposed to that. frankly, we love to have a ceremony and light is on fire and then come back together and work together on this number one driver which is the cost of prescription drugs. >> maybe i misunderstood the question initially, i would suggest from the senator of michigan that the democrats under obamacare to burn down the house because the individual market for healt

mr. session's decision to recuse himself of the russia investigation. he sees it as giving way to the eventual appointment of bob mueller. a senior administration official said the president, quote, has not stopped burning about the decision in occasional spurts towards mr. sessions. he's got people who have been with him from the beginning like jeff sessions, on board very early. now he's even shooting a round at them. >> it seems like the root of this is donald's trepidation over the russia probe. at the end of the day, that's what's making him so uneasy and so nervous. you see in the run-up to thursday's testimony with former fbi director comey, he's very nervous. this is -- the behavior pattern he's demonstrating right now is not normal. i kind of just want to dispense with political correctness and say what everyone is thinking, this behavior is crazy. he needs to get a grip. he's president of the united states, commander-in-chief and acting unhinged from the oval office. that is damaging to our national security. it's damaging to the interest of our country. he's got to get a grip. >> i agree with that, of course. i think there's also a second piece to this which is that nothing is getting done. t

mr. speaker, exhausted from their work who went into a burning building to save people, i said why do you do it? why do you go in because you know it is difficult? it's because we are firefighters and what we are trained to do. we need more of them. there needs to be greater security for all of them in the future. we have to properly fund our fire services, not just at a time in crisis. mr. speaker, i welcome the fact of the questionery, but can we take action now? and the council for its ommitment this week to install sprinklers. but such minimal fire safety standards cannot be left to a post-cod lottery. will you make emergency funds to councils and restore sprinklers? the government should be committed to a public safety bill to implement the recommendations of the 2013 inquiry into the fire and revert its guidance to remove a requirement to remove sprinklers. it could do so. additional to any other recommendations that come from the tower inquiry. >> what he said about sprinkler systems to high-rise flats. we have 116 in my city. at the moment, only eight knows the recommendations hav

and talking to those firefighters, mr speaker, exhausted from their work, who went into a burning building"why do you do it? why do you go in when you know it's so difficult and so dangerous?" they said "because we're firefighters of the that's what we're trained to do. that's why we serve the public in the way we do." there needs to be more of them. there needs to be more of them. there has to be proper security for them in the future. we have to properly fund our fire service not just at a time of crisis. mr speaker, i welcome the fact that there is a public inquiry going into grenfell. can we take action now? i pay tribute to croydon council to install sprinklers in all blocks of ten storeys or more, but such minimum safety standards cannot be left to a postcode lottery so will the government make available emergency funds for councils to both check cladding and to install sprinklers? the government should also have committed to a public safety bill to implement the recommendations of the 2013 inquiry into the fire at lakanal house. and reverse its guidance that removed the requirement

mr. logan rehearsal play they called tiger, tiger, burning bright. it's not a plate you would know but in 62 -- it had an all-black cast which was interesting. diana stands, al freeman junior a lot of names that broadway people when know and i watched them rehearsal and it was amazing. when you watch a broadway show in rehearsal you are seeing the creative process of the director, correcting, claudette o'neill, was a mid- black have the woman in her mid- 50s and she was doing something on stage that he didn't like and they had an argument in one of the arguments was so interesting and i kept notes -- later on with this knowledge put it into the piece and there's a piece called tiger, tiger, burning bright or something like that. what i'm talking to you about is the importance of being there. hanging out, showing up. today i don't want to to abruptly change subjects but technology is taking over. i think it took over in the 60s when i was still in the newspaper and i saw more and more people using tape recorders and that means they'd walk out and shov
