[laughter] >> so i want -- i would -- laughter] >> i would -- i would like you us a sense of how our former first lady and secretary doing. is >> i think she's doing very well. semishell here with me tonight i know her 65 years. applause] we've been married 60 years. she's been my rock of gibralter. [applause]. she will not talk much but when she had something to tell me, it was very straight. talking too long. you know. or shut up. no. that.ever said [laughter] >> she was very good to keep me speeches, h my meeting people, and just make a g that i would speech and i love to go but i'm attention.too much and she will watch. know, when you said that, applaud and can not get up. neither the other guy. that, i said the two together after that. me.ch them, she would tell so, you know, what can i say? she's the mother of my three we have five grandchildren and four great grandchildren. too bad. nd in january, i put my great grandson on skis. 75 feet went down. put your dson said hand. yes. your name. >>> she had time to do a good hard and he worked so two young people on her campaign on he

i would say that if i was him i would work on raising the bar civility office supporters want some of the fights back too and you're seeing that total war right now my way is to i'm a conservative i believe in making my case in a civil way. so i would i don't take it the same way by no a lot of supporters want someone who who fights back as one of the reasons you got elected peter weigh in a former adviser to george w. bush now at the ethics and public policy center here said we've never had a president who so relishes producing animosity and hate among americans and who does it so consistently so gleefully and so intentionally he's right as i would disagree with they are i think that they're somewhat tasteless and what this is doing it's it's totally one sided kind of comedy i think that we have to look at someone and or to tally that what i talked to exactly the way that will trump how the president trump does no it's not my style i would i wouldn't of probably would have done well as a commander speaking that way but he does have a large segment of support that wants him to fight b

sessions: i would be glad to. the transnational criminal organizations have been given to us as a priority by the president, especially ms 13, and we would these the please -- please to discuss it with you. was going to call on others and ask if you needed a few minutes away from the table. this is what is ahead of us. , andve senator blumenthal democratsve seven wanting five minutes, second round, so we have got at least 40 minutes for second round. if you just want to stay there, we will -- sessions: well, i would like to have a break at some point. chair grassley: we will take a 20-minute break. senator: make it half an hour. chair grassley: that is what senator feinstein asked, and that is what we will do. senator: it is good to see you again. this is the first time we had an your oversight ruling as attorney general, and i have appreciated this so far. you have publicly recused yourself all matters dealing with the ongoing russian investigation. want torney general, i focus on that, because i am concerned abou

i would like to strike the last word. as i mentioned, and i take this out because it is the author's district, this is from the department of labor, office of foreign labor certification. 9.28 anel one wage is $ hour. 15% of the federal wage is $8.34 an hour, so it is not that much if you go to level one. if you take a look at what can be deducted, it is not just the issue,, if that is an but it is the tools and the notion of trimmers under the regulation. to provideand tools regular cutting of meat and seafood. the tools can be offset against the wage. es and transportation to the unitedes and transportationo the united states can be offset against the fees, to bring it below the federal minimum wage. if i could finish, i would be happy to do so. i understand the gentleman wants , butotect the meat cutters this amendment doesn't actually do it. i therefore think it should not be supported. i would be happy to yield to the gentleman from maryland. >> that was precisely my question. if i get the import of what you're saying

i would say, yes, s.i. and he would say, do you read it? i said yes, of course i read it. d, what would you do with it? than it was very interesting. it went very fast from what would you do with it to win are you starting. my vision of the new yorker was a different modernization of the magazine, which is what he thought it needed a theft point because the demographics have changed and it needed a new readership. charlie: i want to show you some pictures here. this is s.i. here. this is your wife. this is s.i.'s wife. victoria. >> that's me. charlie: that's you. your wife susie and s.i. died of the same illness. >> yes, they did. they died of -- my wife was diagnosed in 2003 with dementia caused by degeneration of the frontal lobe. it caused her first to start having speech defects and we thought susie was maybe having strokes. went to gerontologist. he was an expert in the field, fortunately. he diagnosed a dementia, a progressive dementia, which means it can only get worse. all dementias can only get worse. it affects your ability to speak and to understand speech. she w

yes, i think it should be a part of what we do. and we would be pleased to work with you to evaluate what kind of legislation might be appropriate. >> well, withank you, and i wit you. just two weeks ago, you issued a memorandum detailing 20 principles of religious liberty, as well as guidance for executive departments and agencies in implementationing those principles. the very first principle is, with i think, the most important. quote, the freedom of religion is a fundamental right of paramount importance, unquote. and it, quote, is not a mere policy preference to be traded against other policy preferences. it is a fundamental right. now, general sessions, would you say this status of religious liberty is a fundamental and paramount right and poses the psalm obligation on the legislative branch as it does on the executive branch? >> i think it does. i would just say this, senator hatch. your legislation that you worked so hard and passed, the religious freedom restoration act, was a big part of the foundation of the principles that we set ou

booker: i do not take issue with that at all. would i take issue with is you are saying we are trying to maintain our efforts of diplomacy and food support because that is not reflected in budget numbers. let me continue to the point i was trying to make. there is a lot of extensive research which i am sure you are aware that in addition to socioeconomic status, excessive force by police and military forces engenders deep grievances which lead to radicalization. and the heavy-handed responses from military drives recruitment and violent extremism and organizations that often lead to terrorist activity. you are aware of that research. sec. mattis: i am not aware of what we have done in may of 2014 276 nigerian when girls were kidnapped. i do not find the connection between our activities and the kidnapping of hundreds of girls. sen. booker: i was not making that connection. i am simply making the point that senator paul made about yemen. when we are engaged in counterterrorism activities, partnering with military operations like what we

on tactical nuclear weapons, i would still say the bar is high. extremely high for reintroduction, proliferation concerns, proximity concerns, your moral e e situation concerns. so i wouldn't hazard a guess because i can't predict the future, but i would say it's a high threshold. and you have seen ib creasing proximity to engage in secondary sanctions as well. that's something that both administrations, obama and trump, have been exercising judiciously because the issue at hand is if you do too much, one, you actually release all your leverage, and what you're trying to do is speed up the chinese clock. so you sort of implement the sanctions and that's all you have. but the second is that you risk turning the chinese the other way. as everybody here has said today, the chinese are a necessary part of this e equation. so i'll stop there. >> it's a hard question you raised. i think from my personal experience with president moon, he's more like resembles more he's such a pragmatist to me. he's very progressive in certain areas. especially north kore

i would -- i can't help but note that yesterday we marked up a bill that would allow, you know, hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions, of workers paid sub minimum wage come into the u.s. with no vetting whatsoever. so if i were a potential terrorist, i think i might look at that route instead of the extensive route that you are describing. but moving right -- >> -- how to do it. >> moving right along, i would like to ask you, mr. lloyd, about policies relative to the rights of asylees in your custody. we're all aware that so-called jane doe, a 17-year-old immigrant woman in orr custody was blocked from accessing an abortion and forced to continue a pregnancy against her will. now, she is a minor. but a court had decided that she had the maturity to make the decision on her own, and yet she continued to be blocked from this constitutionally protected health care. she wasn't asking the government to pay for her care or to transport her to a doctor, just to get out of the facility so that she could access a constitutional right that she had to terminate her pregnancy. obviously, as a 1

he said he would have their back. i wonder if he would have the backs of the individual who climbed into a second floor window two weeks ago in a sanctuary city in new jersey and raped a six-year-old girl. i will have their back and i will keep them safe. >> those axing crimes are heinous. those people need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. both all due respect, let's not tell half-truths or untruths about this. what happened to that little girl, is awful. heinous, let's call it out for what it is. it's a crime and the person should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. what you're doing is donald trump doing. you pit us against them. you can cast over entire communities of people. >> the next question we welcome man from new jersey, his question goes to mr. murphy. this is a question about unrealistic promises. you may promises for spending a policies and programs that you would need substantially to fu fund. and miss guadagno, you promised to cut taxes by spending one and half billion dollar

i would say no. speaking evenly for myself i was a little surprised that they didn't hide their hand as were -- as much as they did and that made me suspect there could be a quid pro quo. there is no point poking a finger in somebody's eyes when you are responding to them poking it into your eye if you don't let them know it is you poking. so a strong hypothesis there has to be looked at, but another level strategically we have have shorter corporate memories than russians. our administrations and policies continued to turn over more rapidly and they do forget, where in russia they don't. back it are we at war with russia, again my view of the russians is that if they are going to go to war they want to weaken the opponent long before. so the distinction between war and not is not the same as the distinction we have. >> george. >> i think it is never a wise idea to tell your boss he is wrong. in this particular case i agree. i think it is not surprising what has gone on. it would be surprising, were t

and i would just -- i would go back and listen, i would -- i would defer to the intensity of the chairman's remarks, both in his opening remarks and his question. you mess around with our election apparatus, and it is an attack on our country. and so, let me give you an example. it doesn't even have to be that the russians come in or the chinese or some third party that's not a nation-state. we already know that they're in 20 of our states. we know that from the reports that have been in the newspaper from the intelligence community. all you have to do is go into certain precincts. you don't even have to change the outcome of the actual vote count. you could just eliminate every tenth rege strant -- every tenth registered voter. so when mr. jones shows up on election day to vote, i am sorry, mr. jones, you are not a registered voter. you multiply that, every tenth voter, you have absolute chaos in the election. on top of it, you have the long lines that result. and as a result of that, people are discouraged from voting. because they can't wait in the long line. and so forth and so on. now,

and i would say yes, si, and he would say did you read it. >> that's right. and i said yes, of course i read it and he said you know, what would you do with it? >> and then it was very interesting. as always with si, it went very fast from what would you do with it to when are you starting. cuz he was like that once he decided, he dead sided. >> bang bang. >> my decision at the new yorker was a very different sort of modernization of the magazine. which is what he felt it needed at that point typically because the demographics had changed and really needed a new swell of readership. >> rose: did he think it needed some of the glamor of "vanity fair." >> no, that wasn't the vision, actually. and nosh was it for me. i mean we-- the main thing that i felt it needed was a redesign which we were able to modernize without sort of spoiling in anyway the pristine beauty of the magazine and at the same time giving it headlines, giving it blushings giving it cover lines, introducing photography which it really hadn't very much of, i decided the foachy needed to be there

i just would say there are options in election. i think a child neurologist, some who's been dealing with this issue over the years is much more qualified to do with the opioid crisis than is a d.c lobbyist. >> mr. gillespie. >> the fact is we got to crack down on dealers and we need to get everybody to the table. but at the same time we need to understand we're not going to arrest our way out of this epidemic. i have sat in the jails with addicts in recovery and our jails, our shares are running recovery centers all across the commonwealth. we need to support them. it's one of the reasons i was a bitterly disappointed and dismayed when the administration canceled the annual meeting with the virginia sheriffs association department issues just like this and that will help address the needs in terms of what they need to address this on the front lines and their budgetary requirements. that meeting was canceled because of politics because i'm proud to say a majority of sheriffs all across the commonwealth, 65 have endorsed my candidac

i would also remind members that we are in open session. therefore, questions should reflect that fact. the chair would recognize himself for up to five minutes. as the cia inspector general, you will be responsible for overseeing a large organization whose work us to be done in secret. .'s the work of the i.g office can provide that critical point o for this committee. how do you plan to continue efforts to continue -- to assure that all contractors and workers are aware of the cia i.g. and its function? mr. sharpley: within cia there is an awareness program. people are required to take training on an annual basis. the procedures and processes for making a complaint to the cia inspector general are incorporated in the training. we had a significant outreach effort that we speak with all incoming employees, new employees, and we give briefings whistleblowers whenever the opportunity arises. beyond that, we have an extensive and very mature and whistleblower program. i have had the opportunity to build to bank whistleblower hotline programs t

caller: i would. guest: first of all when players , protest during the anthem, they are not "protesting at work." there is nothing in the bargaining contract that says they need to stand for the anthem, so they are not protesting at work. they are there to play football. they are out there on a voluntary basis. they have only been going out there since 2009. i really think that argument kind of falls apart. the second thing is you have to take a big leap to say the national football league is somehow bowing and being shaped by leftist pressure. this is the nfl for goodness sake. there is a team in the nation's capital that is named after a racial slur. it, even not change though there is no way that team could be born today named after a racial slur. you look at issues from minority hiring to who is in the owner's box, the rights of players, and to call this a left-wing operation is the height of absurdity. the last thing i would say is to think players have brought politics into the nfl when they are

.: " >> i always thought i would be making a living doing music. i always knew. i never had any other plans. charlie: no plan b? and an appreciation of rock icon tom petty. >> rock and roll. rock and roll, we tend to ring of it as a specific thing, playing with a guitar and a certain amount of attitude to it. it will be an honesty to it. think theyck, i soed and some -- lumped in many things, it is not quite as pure. charlie: the conversation with ed sheeran and remembering tom petty when we continue. ♪ charlie: a tragic shooting sunday night in las vegas at a country musical festival has claimed 59 lives and left more than 500 people injured. it is the deadliest mass shooting in modern u.s. history. stephen paddock has been identified as the shooter. he fired into a crowd of thousands from his hotel suite on the 32nd floor of the mandalay bay. swat officers searching for the shooter found paddock dead in his hotel room from apparently a self-inflicted gunshot wound. authorities discovered an arsenal of 23 firearms in his suite and an additional 19 at his home. i

i am unaware of, that would be, i support a process in place that would protect the confidentiality of any one or the anonymity of anyone who wanted to bring a complaint forward on an acting ige or anybody else, any other official as an acting inspector general who works in the world of confidentiality, anonymity etc.. i think it is very important that we recognize these processes and that we honor them but i can't speak to the specifics. >> i would ask that the document be put in the record and so that we can take a look at it and in writing know what is fact and what is fiction. >> if i may take one moment with respect to the documents thatak you are referring to it is done in r assessment to a minimal number of people who've been retaliated against him after if you looked at in a timely fashion and is across. i can't speak for the rest of the inspectors general. i can't speak for the cia inspector general and i challenge the validity of the statements. i feel very strongly about the whistleblower retaliation program. the handle old concerns whether they are involving in potential

i would just do it. i wouldn't ask.ebody you know that you feel that way about? we need to get to where we feel about more people that way, and this, because this identity politics is going to dog as for a long time because we are being thrown together at a pace and in ways that we've never been thrown together in all of human history, and he's right. think about the future. and see people as people. those are the two keys. [applause] >> so i could do this all night. i'm having about as much fun as i can have, and i think seeing these two gentlemen together this evening gives you a sense of what a remarkably delightful opportunity i was given in life to work with the two of them, and to be a fly on the wall as they worked together. i would've done it for free, and action in the american system you almost do it for free, but i had a nice house. i do on all night. as president clinton would say we did come visit, he would say this is not bad for public housing. [laughing] if it were not for the clock police that better st

i would hope you agree. if what we saw play out in the ukraine happened in the u.s., attacks on the grid, what would that trigger? what should that trigger? and do you think we have the plans in place now, or are we going to be building this airplane mid-flight when it's a little late? >> i guess i would start by saying it's probably not sufficient for me to speak to the adequacy of the plans. what i will say is, if you think about let's just think about the sony attack as a case study. and what was central -- and i would be curious about aaron's perspective, was first and foremost from an intelligence perspective, was a clear understanding and appreciation of attribution of that act in this case by a nation-state. and it is -- it's important to not trivialize how challenging that is. i would ask you to speak to some of the colleagues that are participating in today's discussion about the challenges associated with it. however, it is a necessary component for informing, one, whether the attribution of the act

i would just tell you, look at people's resumes. what did they do before they came to public service? i have had a life of public service. i served in the united states army. i took care of sick children and their families over 25 years. i have served in the virginia senate and as lieutenant governor. and i will tell you i look forward to serving in the next four years. we are all in this together, making sure we have access to health care, making sure our children have access to a world-class education system. make sure all of you have good paying jobs in virginia. we live in the greatest state in the greatest country in this world. i encourage all of you to vote on the election day. i would certainly be privileged and honored to have your vote on november 7. thank you for watching. thank you for being with us. have a great weekend . mr. gillespie: thank you for making time for this important debate. ralph, i wish you and pam the best as well. i believe this election is important. we have had three straight years where more people h

i like to ask you to do the same. would it be illegal to deny a broadcast license or revoke it simply because of the presidents dislike of the content? >> if you give me just a moment. i failed to mention there's a violence against women law and iran white act that both explicitly mention sexual identity and sexual orientation. we enforce those as you would want them to be in force. the other laws don't. senator blumenthal,. >> i would suggest that he would way above his time. >> you'll get another 30 seconds, but what i would like, i hope no republicans come back and we have 15 more minutes for democrats. i still have my second round to do and we are votes at 3:00 o'clock so i'd like to get out here by then. go ahead. >> it's a good counsel and talking to today. the president is open, direct, and expresses himself when he wants to express himself. it's a free country. >> it's a free country mr. attorney general and i apologize for interrupting. this issue is so profoundly serious. for the fcc to deny license or revoke a li

charlie: i would think it worked the other way around. s, you could think of the music. tom: some people do it that way. for me, it is the opposite. i have a tough time setting the -- setting the lyrics to music. i don't know why. i have to find the right feel for it. i try to write at the same time and try -- i tend to trust it if it comes on the same bus. charlie: are you writing all the time? tom: no. charlie: or when you need to? tom: i keep the guitar or piano around and i may have an ideal or piece of a song, but these days, i write more when i know i am going to have an album. when time is set aside to record and i will set aside a few months and i will work fairly diligently. but, some days you go into work, sometimes it is very lonely sometimes because you go in the room and you want to write and you pick up your guitar and anything play sounds very musical. and some days, it is not so friendly and sounds cold and if it becomes a struggle, i have learned over the years to just walk away. and go, ok, i am not writing today because

they knew i would never intrude where i was. it would be easier for me to describe to you how i worked rather than what they meant when they asked me to do it. what i did was, it was important to me to have them realize that i was trustworthy. that i was not going to go back and tell the writers at "time" what i heard. i had been there a long time by the time clinton was president. i knew a lot of people who worked in the white house because they had worked for carter. whatever party wins, the players in the white house disappear and then they come back the next time. i knew most of the players in the clinton white house and they knew they could trust me. it is funny because it was not totally my character. i do not hear when i am taking pictures. the picture of walter cronkite and ronald reagan, i do not know what they are saying. i do not know what the joke was because i am working. when i work, i cannot hear. i am looking through a range finder and i am trying to frame the picture and think about the picture. consider where my

i would like to talk briefly about the jobs of the 21st century. they are much different from when i was growing up. science, technology, engineering, arts, math, and health care. things like biotechnology, areas we are promoting right here in rural virginia. one of the ways how i was doing this is the g3 program. get skills, get a job, get back. a lot of people in virginia to go to community college for two years without debt, with the understanding that once they become certified they will get back a year of public service. this will allow individuals from across the commonwealth and this lountry to come to rura virginia and star in work and it visits raise your in virginia. >> southwest virginia faces an aging workforce and a brain drain of young people working in the area. what policies will you propose to help rule areas reinvent themselves to keep millennials in southwest virginia and what would you encourage -- due to encourage young folks to work in the commonwealth? >> this is something i do care about. as lieutenant governor, he serves on

chairman i would just say ms. strossen i use the same colorado that when i read the majority opinion in citizens united it was like reading a seventh-graders american government paper and then i decided that was insulting colorado seventh-grader so i don't say it anymore. see we have free speech in the senate too don't we? senator isakson. >> thank you senator and thank you mr. chairman and thank you for calling this hearing. i came here with a set of questions to ask which i'm going to in just a second but listening to dr. sim are in discussion earlier in the three principles and the chicago principles remind me of dr. king in the south in the 1960s and the 195th days. he took the first amendment and his belief that people contrary belief in contrary have a right to speak to end and it all needs to be nonviolence. the chicago principles apply to that era by dr. king and ultimately embraced the civil rights movement as well as those who were confronted with making decisions to make the civil rights movement work we

sessions: i would be glad to. the transnational criminal organizations have been given to us as a priority by the president, especially ms 13, and we would these the please -- please to discuss it with you. was going to call on others and ask if you needed a few minutes away from the table. this is what is ahead of us. , andve senator blumenthal democratsve seven wanting five minutes, second round, so we have got at least 40 minutes for second round. if you just want to stay there, we will -- sessions: well, i would like to have a break at some point. chair grassley: we will take a 20-minute break. senator: make it half an hour. chair grassley: that is what senator feinstein asked, and that is what we will do. senator: it is good to see you again. this is the first time we had an your oversight ruling as attorney general, and i have appreciated this so far. you have publicly recused yourself all matters dealing with the ongoing russian investigation. want torney general, i focus on that, because i am concerned abou

i also don't think it would. i will say this. just the discussion of any bump stocks has literally introduced at least three or 4000 of those into the market place because people are clamoring to buy them. now we have literally, we had all these new bump stocks into the market which as you and i both know when you make some illegal it doesn't automatically disappear. especially because people who are criminals tend to not follow laws. if you think bump stocks were a problem just talked about has made it worse. >> host: what do you think about the national rifle association time this bump stock debate to the concealed carry debate? yesterday the nra in their statement saying that there should be perhaps additional regulations, whatever that means, on the bump stocks. they also say on behalf of our 5 million members, congress should also pass the right to carry reciprocity bill which will allow law-abiding americans to defend themselves and the families from acts of violence. are these things tied together now? >> guest: i don't th

i would like to argue it's probably something in between. but i will caution there's a lot we don't know about this, and we ought to be careful about drawing conclusions so early in this process. so i'd like to tell you why i think that's the case. before i get into that. i want to point out a common cognitive trap we can all fall into as we address questions like that, that's confirmation bias. it's very easy to start with a hypothesis, an explanation for what's going on. then go out and do research to see if you can find information that's consistent with that hypothesis, when you go about doing things like that, you usually finds evidence that's consistent with your hypothesis. the trap that you can run into is that you're not looking at alternative explanations that are also consistent with that very same evidence. and in this particular case, the hypothesis that the kremlin directed, an influence operation campaign in the united states that is designed to play upon disunity, to sow dissense within the united states, and ultimately to des

i would hope this would be an amendment that we could all support. given the comments from colleagues that the cut in the budget resolution on medicare isn't really a cut. so, if that's the case, then i think we should be very clear that structurally medicare won't be changed, with the almost $500 billion in cuts in the budget resolution. and this would simply put a budget point of order against medicare privatization. which i know is a great worry to seniors in michigan and people across the country. 47 million americans, mostly seniors, but people with disabilities, depend on medicare. including two million people in michigan. that's about one in five people in our country. medicare's a promise. it's a guarantee that america's seniors who paid in their whole lives, people have paid in their whole lives have affordable, comprehensive insurance when they retire. a lot of folks holding on just -- having a tough time in terms of insurance and they breathe a sigh of relief when they're 65, to know that what they paid into all their life will be there. co

but i would say americans are smart. always used to say my constituents were the smartest, as they were but they made very good judgments about who to send to congress. but a lot of people now especially with the advent of social media are very connected in the world and they -- their views i think are not necessarily shaped by what happens at a white house press conference, there views are shaped by the people they know, the troubles they may come of the information they read. i think that is a good thing. i think there is a layered sense of getting information in this country. some social media is an echo chamber on both ends. what i think a lot of people are smart and getting their information from many sources and that is good for america because i frankly think the views that you reveal in your polls are solid, mainstream views. that both parties should embrace. >> maybe if you could also explain how you differentiated between republicans and trump supporters, for trumps supporters. >> we had some slides that were ju

murphy: i would say we would be there on the ground.the governor, the executive branch working with the local elected officials to keep the progress we have seen and hopefully more. >> would you support gaming in north jersey? mr. murphy: gaming, i have supported strongly. it is a huge job creator. we are desperate for jobs. if it is not in north jersey it is going to be on the west side of manhattan. the projects had elements where they would send a significant amount of income to atlantic city. that is a big basis that i was supportive of it. one red cent to atlantic city. i'd rather those jobs created in that in new jersey. once atlanticgno: city's stabilized we should put on the ballot the question of whether or not, it has to be on the ballot, whether gaming should be north. if somebody is going to get the jobs, we should. i think we are the best position to get those jobs. on one condition. that we can afford to do business here in new jersey. phil murphy would eliminate tax credits. he would raise taxes on businesses -- businesse

i would be one of those people and please you can question me and the question to cope but i am somebody steve bannon would call a globalist and when the president said we cannot do nation building, i guess it is unpopular with. unless we strengthen the institutions of democracy in the countries likcountries like afge will have a result likely have had in iraq where the forces of evil continue to undermine stable democratic government. in afghanistan we have the network go of television, isis. we have two strengthen governance to be competitive. we need to foster our global cooperation. i am disappointed with the withdraw. i'm concerned about the renegotiation of nafta even if they are short-term and economic benefits, but i think we need to recognize we have a serious issue in cybersecurity. we have the capacity to fight wars on that level as well as conventionally and i think that we need to be more aggressive and assertive then we were certainly during campaign 2016. look, i just think in terms of criminal justice at we can't attack america and american institutions for mass incarcera
