mr. johnson: i got 30 seconds left. why didn't any of the other groups assembled to the table today do anything about the cases we mention today? mr. adams: i caution the committee, if you are reauthorizing the voting rights act, not make it partisan. in some corners, i think that the voting rights act is viewed as a partisan record. one said the justice department use the voting rights act as a partisan weapon. that's the -- when you see the south carolina voting rights act, that's how it's viewed. mr. cohen: thank you. before i recognize mr. nadler, i made the statement about the states that were covered and with the exception of arizona, which i mentioned, the only state covered in hold side -- old confederacy is alaska. the other states are local jurisdictions which i also mentioned there are local jurisdictions, other places. i forget -- apologizing forgetting alaska and for not knowing about guam. mr. nadler, you're recognized. mr. nadler: thank you. i will comment on the obvious distraction of the guam case which

mr. johnson. parenthetically i'll mention in memphis the location that houses the election commission downtown was dedicated yesterday as the james meredith building. in honor of his integrating ole miss and fighting for voting rights. mr. dale ho is director of the voting rights at the american civil liberties union. he is up advises the litigation and advocation work nationwide. he curm has active cases in dozens of states around the country. has testified on election issues before this congress and state legislatures. he's also an adjunct political professor of law, received his j.d. from yale law school an under graduate from princeton. mr. ho, you are recognized for that all members may have five legislative days to revise and extend their remarks finets. thank you. mr. how: chairman commowen, chairman nadlerks ranking member johnson, and members of the subcommittee thank you very much for the opportunity to testify today. i'm director of the aclu voting rights project. justice ruth bader gins

of the parliamentary agenda and in just the last hour or so a scottish court has now ruled that mr johnson's planned suspension of parliament is legal so he can do it now here's how things are expected to unfold later today mr johnston will 1st have to face m.p.'s in the house of commons during what's expected to be a road to the prime minister's question time but the real showdown is what comes after that in the afternoon m.p.'s will vote on a motion which would block a no deal bricks it on october the 31st further delaying the u.k.'s exit from the e.u. by 3 months that takes us to the end of january next year mr johnson is threatening a snap election if the vote goes against him meanwhile the u.k.'s brecht's that negotiating team is to resume talks in brussels neve barker takes a look at how we got here. well. britain's democracy is a war. with itself. as protesters marched on westminster politicians returned from the summer recess poised to push new legislation through parliament to block always johnson ring that. a number of m.p.'s including prominent politicians in johnson's own conserv

mr. johnson and that gives mr. johnson were barking -- either they back mr. johnson and that gives mr. johnson more bargaining power, or we go to a general election. the odds are good that he could win the election, which means he could have more bargaining power and ideal as possible. if he loses, the brexit might be postponed forever, which will be positive for the pound. it's true that the different options remain. the hard brexit is still very volatile. on the other hand, it looks like there is some sort of expectations for the pound to strengthen in the short term. nejra: yeah. it sounds from what you're saying that you think overall in every scenario that hard brexit is less likely, but a lot of your argument depends on the fact that the eu would be more willing to negotiate with boris johnson, the way he is saying they would be able to. do you think that's a likely prospect, that the eu would actually agree to the deal he is proposing? weekendve seen over the michel barnier hinting they would be no negotiation. the u.k. is 14% of the eu exports. it is very important for islands t

mr. johnson: mr. speaker, that is why i set out our arguments, why any future agreement must include the abolition of the antidemocratic backstop. we have also been clear -- we have also been clear that we will need changes to the political declaration to clarify that our future relationship the cash with the eu -- with the eu will be based on a free-trade agreement and giving, out full control over our regulations our trade, and our defense policies. this clarity has brought benefits far from jeopardizing negotiations. it is making them more straightforward. in the last few weeks, i believe the chances of a deal have risen. this week, we are intensifying the pace of meetings in france. -- in brussels. our european friends can see that we want an agreement, and they are beginning to reflect that reality in their response. president macron said, i quote, i quote, if -- mr. speaker, they don't want to hear the words. they don't want to hear about any progress we might be making. mr. speaker -- >> order,

detail in which many people are trying to what i think there's any way that mr johnson could navigate the judicial system here in the will of parliament he 1st to what is known as the order of a council in which theoretically speaking prime minister johnson could actually just but not pursue an extension and just go ahead with his idea of it all just you know and known extension of a negotiation time and just rush ahead with no deal breck's it therefore technically not breaking the law but constitutional experts saying they would actually need to be a very particular legal a dimension towards this which has an op and still no been on earth yet and in all of this also mr johnson did decry the very divisive nature of mr johnson's process toward this. the government seems intent on whipping up to say. by using emotional and evocative language that can only provoke fear and anger and fuel grievances against parliament and the law consider what this. means if this government wishes to reimage by inciting opposition to the most important state and its freedom. also that given the term all t

mr johnson why the hell would ordinary people trust mr johnson so that bairn bill will be written into law and probably get royal assent. on monday of next week sure that mr johnson's heinz will be tight budgets and won't be able to leave that you'd opinion without a deal the people who are trying to stop a new deal brakes are doing that because the projections from the government not predictions from those who are against brakes are the predictions from the government report called the yellow hamas report and by the way this isn't even one case scenario this is beast's scenario so this is the moose lately scenario is that a new deal but except would be a disaster for the uki a corner me would lead to food shortages would lead to fuel shortages would lead to a shortage of maybe sins including v.a. to cancer treatment medicines and could result in the loss of hundreds of thousands of jobs so even those who believe in breaks and of good to see crissy i'm one of them i don't lately opinion i think it's undemocratic to the core i would prefer a country that rate to past our own budgets was

mr. jeh johnson? mr. johnson: my first, second answer is, safety, safety, safety. law d that, continued good enforcement. initiatives to counter violent extremism at the federal and level. grants from the national level to state and local law enforcement, which include active shooter training exercises, support for active whichr training exercises i think are very important, and vigilance, public awareness, various, if you see something, say something campaigns. is partnering with a number of cities, a number of sports teams, public awareness, public igilance does make a difference. >> you mentioned gun safety, gun safety, gun safety. actions a number of that we can take but one that may be before the congress this expand background checks. would you support that? do you think it's necessary? like to hear from the other tie as well. consistentt anything with the second amendment that has bipartisan support that it more difficult for a deranged violent person to get gun.ands on a weapon.cally an assault >> secretary napolitano? secretary napolitano: i think checks e

mr. johnson: mr. chertoff: one thing that could be done is to basic things to help secure their infrastructure. including things like having backups for data. it is not going to eliminate the problem, but it is going to reduce the impact. helping mitigate the risk is important. also, i think that we ought to be exploring what the federal government can do and is doing by way of attribution. to help find the source of these attacks. so that an appropriate response can be constructed. >> i think the single best thing anyone can do in that situation is raise the level of awareness about security among the people that use the system. you'd be surprised to the number of people who do not know how to respond to a suspicious email. a lot of these attacks begin with an active spearfishing. some of the opened an email or attachment they should not have opened. raising the level of awareness among people we entrust with the system goes a long way. >> thank you. i am pleased to report our county officials did re

mr. johnson. >> sure, thank you. historically classification is generally sort of held for housing as well as recreation and those are the areas where detainees and inmates generally are most vulnerable and in your specific instance the only waiver of a classification requirement had to do with whether an individual who was going on there housing unit or to the medical area needed to be escorted by an officer during the standards required so that's an area that we waived in the past because it cuts against that whole idea of civil detention at escort level threes and it should be based on the threat for the detainee as opposed to the fact that he may have had marital dispute with his wife and that's why the individual is classified as a level three and we have to look at the specific circumstances that we conclude that ice waiver has somehow made an individual's unsafe or vulnerable because you were never -- >> in that example is not necessarily the case of a violent criminal was put in the cell with a nonviolent. >>

and we've got variables here where we've got what's just about to happen in the house we've got mr johnson's reaction to that he can't call an election he's got to get 2 thirds of a majority of 650 m.p.'s in the house i mean can they get that done in that window . well he if if he were to get 2 thirds supports in a vote tomorrow evening he might be able to that depends very much on the labor party opposition they're entirely mistrusting it johnson if they voted with him to call an election there that they're worried that he might say fine thanks we'll have that election but will do it after breakfast at the end of october so there's that level of mistrust as well the other things and i'm sorry this is so complicated but it does it does need explaining the other thing that the government could do is try to change the rules of the fixed term limits act which would then allow them to have a much simpler votes which only needs a simple majority rather 2 thirds majority but again that would have to go through the house of lords as well and so none of these things are simple in the in the least an

at the end of this month dither and delay mr johnson said twice and he also said we will have ample. opportunity to discuss bricks it the language very very strong he's telling labor m.p.'s they're on the benches opposite to tell their party leader jeremy corbyn not to go with what he's turning a surrender deal we're talking about we've heard these words no use for what 36 hours a rebel alliance we're talking about m.p.'s seizing power we're talking about hashtags stop the coup if you've been following this on twitter also he didn't really give an answer there was one m.p. there asked him to confirm what is being discussed what is on the table because there is a quite small compared to the size of the team that reason means to send to brussels and strasburg there is a u.k. break that negotiating team in brussels as we speak quite a small team nothing new has been put on the table that was the central accusation levelled at mr johnson he didn't really reply so we don't know what the concrete proposals are will stay with these pictures mr johnson is still on his feet for a 2nd and let'

particular issue i just think that this would make the constitutional mess even deeper i think mr johnson has signaled he'll abide by the ruling he will i think have to do so and as i say mr bercow will want parliament back as soon as possible when it does reconvene is a different matter but it will do so again it's a background of a prime minister who i think tacitly by this court ruling has been accused of misleading the queen deliberately for political gain the kind of charge which most prime ministers wouldn't survive some are garden city politics like said lancaster university frank spillover this a lot international pre-shared have a good day. thank you for she to come to 18 past the hour moscow time well i'm sure you are as well the problem or part of the story is ahead families turn out in force against a school band unvaccinated children in new york that's just one of the stories we're covering when we come back here. you know world of big part of. lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we nee

mr. johnson. i now recognize the chairman of the full judiciary committee, gentleman from much of new york, manhattan, east side. west side. >> thank you, mr. chairman. since the supreme court's disastrous 2013 decision, shelby county versus holder, which effectively gutted the most critical enforcement provision of the voting rights act of 1965, we've seen a troubling trend. states and localities, in particular those who were formulaally subject to the requirement have enacted or engaged in various voter suppression tactics such as burdensome proof of citizenship laws, significant scale backs to early voting periods, restrictions on absentee ballots, laws to make it difficult to restore the voting rights of formerly incarcerated individuals. these have a disproportionate negative impact on minority voters. in contrary to what we just heard, disparate impact is very, very much a very useful evidentiary tool. in most recent elections in november 2018, voters across the country experienced various ba

university he told the implications really of the supreme court's decision and how he believes mr johnson will react. i think this verdict was extremely strong the wording was very strong nolan void quashed all this kind of thing what the judges of refused to go into the real reasons why mr johnson chose to ask for the queen's preux parliament what they're just said to simply is that it was an unreasonable decision if he takes the same decision again we'll be faced with the same verdicts again and i think that the trouble is with all this is in our own codify the constitution the queen's role is highly sensitive i think that if there were further court cases about this particular issue i just think that this would make the constitutional mess even deeper i think mr johnson has signalled he'll abide by the ruling he will i think have to do so well i think that he will he one strategy will be to say of course i respect the court's decision i disagree with it but this decision doesn't affect my all thora t. and i'm still going to go ahead negotiate with the e.u. these negotiations are making

mr. johnson? yes or no. unacceptable? >> i don't know much about the case, but if there is a grandfather clause or blood test, that is something that we oppose. >> mr. ho? >> the 9th circuit found a violation of the amendment. appropriate. >> keep going. yes. >> miyrna perez. some of the cases that we have heard here today, but i will say that if the facts as presented suggest a grandfather clause we would be opposed to it. >> miss landrith. >> i'm not going to comment on a case, and -- they're not disturbed by native americans voting in chicken coops, driving 98 miles to register. i would like you to focus on that for a while. >> i am focused on a -- that is blatantly discriminatory for an election in the territory of the united states in the 21st century and it is disturbing that i can't get more unanimity that it is unacceptable. >> mr. williams, you talked about how it contributes to non-citizens and not only getting on the voter rules, but also the improper elimination of citizens from the voter rules. can you elabora

and if you don't against him mr johnson wants an election but he can't call it by himself. he wants an election so he is going to call that election after the 2nd round of this voting tonight he has gone through the thought that he needs a 2 thirds majority now he has no majority whatsoever he's not talking about a 2 thirds majority and so he's going to lose that again so then the next sort of we get into the next stage of this sort of rocket and that is a little under british politics and he will come back next monday and try to push for an election again and then and in a different sort of procedure he needs only a simple majority and we will see whether the opposition and the rebels hold together all whether he can manage then to pull it off. in brussels any request from britain for an extension would have to be signed off by the $27.00 of us how they might view such a request. that's right and phil earlier when we spoke i said that i thought they would probably be fairly amenable to such a request because the european union would be half happy of brecht's that were call

mr. johnson for his excellent sleerd high pressure and mr. gaetz for his insightful remarks about this legislation. let's see i am not averse to this amendment. if i had heard any complaints from union members about this process. i had not heard a single complaint from a genuinen members and if we are talking about fair representation, i don't know that they would want to get out of an alternative mediation or arbitration pr process. but in any event we don't really know anything about that. but what we do have tons of evidence of of is cases like from new york with karen ward who sued ernst and young. worked at ernst and young for sexual harassment a after a series of insult being and did he greyeds a-remarks after smefs propositioned upon a trip she tried to bring a sexual harassment suit was force intoed compulsory arbitration where she was charged $85,000 in order to bring the case. and how many cases are being chilled and deterred and squelched by virtue of the fact that people are charged for the right to enter into their claims. if she

from that post and from his seat in the commons representing the conservative party the younger mr johnson announced his moves on twitter citing a tension as he put it between family loyalty and the public interest that he ultimately found on resolvable meanwhile the leader of the house of commons teresa jacob riis mauger apparently well rested for managing the prime minister's recent question of votes on briggs it told m.p.'s on thursday that the government will try again on monday to pass an election bill the 1st try on one state failed to guard one's even failed to garner the required 2 thirds vote to call an election for oct 15th. in the fall leaves us in today's what now. a moment slightly different from yesterday here tell us exactly how this will all play out is tony sheridan former member of the scottish parliament representing glasgow tommy even told better in parliament waters are having to make a real effort to find the center of a plot here and where we're gonna girl so let's start with the bendel the bill bar and no deal bragg said that bill has now gone to the house of lords

tool that mr johnson could use whereby he could overrule not not doing that however legally speaking that would be incredibly difficult to do there still hasn't been any legal context on earth in which mr johnson would be able to do that without causing a complete our pending of the constitutional system here in the u.k. all along through this mr major also decried mr johnson's very divisive rhetoric the government seems intent on whipping up to say. by using emotional and evocative language that can only provoke fear and anger and fuel grievances against parliament and the law consider what this. it means that this government wishes to win reelection by inciting opposition to the most important state and it's freedom. meanwhile bricks that negotiations are continuing the u.k. bricks secretary steven barclay is meeting with his counterparts in brussels but brussels is less and less optimistic about the possibility of a deal being struck there are differences between how they see rules and regulations surrounding customs and products with the u.k. insisting on differences in the e.u.

mr. johnson. you make the essential point there which goes right to the heart of your lenlsilation, protect people's constitutional right to jury trial. we're trying to say we're not going to allow market imbalances of power override the constitutional rights of the people. this reminds me a lot of the debate, which i thought had been settle ntd 1960s like the heart of atlanta motel case where restaurants and motels and hotels and bake shops and so on are saying we don't want to serve gay couples or interracial couples or interfaith couples and we said no, we're going to override that private contractual determination with the constitutional rights of the people as interpreted by congress. we're doing the exact same thing here, saying we're not going to allow private contracting parties to get into court? row claiming my time, the gentleman is correct this -- what this amendment would do would be to render the arbitration clause enforceable if these certain provisions were nott not included in the

queen elizabeth the circuit will be absolutely furious and then we come on to the matter of mr mr johnson's cabinet jacob riis mark is an honorable man he went out more as a privy councillor to tell the queen to do this is he going or it's astonishing to me that he's had the audacity not to resign 66 years on the throne and queen elizabeth queen of scots could was with the 2nd of the united kingdom and no one has a prime minister who's led into unlawfulness you can't really say the forest. and deliberately missed that the queen the supreme court in scotland said exactly that the supreme court of the united kingdom said the didn't need to go into the because the judgment stood in italy ok i don't think he did it on purpose but that's a moot point the fundamental issue for me is that there's almost no way out for bars to escape the promise he made that we would leave on the 31st of october he has to try to do that and if you plays clever here i think you could line him self up with what is definitely a junk bond risky strategy for a general election but a strategy that could actually propel h

mr. johnson said is if that happens, he loses that tonight, he will tomorrow table a motion to dissolve that parliament when they just got back and call the election for october 14. pm johnson: the country wants this done. they want the referendum respected. we will be by october 31 in all circumstances. there will be no further pointless delay. david: well he was speaking, the arithmetic changed significantly. this morning he had a majority of one. during his statement an mp from the conservative party walked to the other side of the house and joined the liberal democrats. it went to minus one. we now have a minority government in the united kingdom. >> the ayes to the right, 328, the noes 201. >> not a good start, boris. >> i don't want an election but if mp's vote tomorrow to stop negotiations and to compel another pointless delay to brexit potentially for years, that would be the only way to resolve this. i can confirm we are tonight tabling a motion under the fixed term parliaments. >> here! >> he wants to table a motion for a general election. fine. get the bill through. first in order

say in a british house of parliament that prime minister barak johnson the responding to kenneth clocks question telephone sitting next to mr jones's princesa as promised a truce and i let's go live now to london will be joined dieter because going to big. welcome big. boris johnson haas made a statement to parliament and the last a few minutes what did he tell them. well boris johnson was obs aging m.p.'s about the summit in the air it's and he was very careful to have just very friendly language when he described his so-called you friends and partners but when he was talking about the breadth of negotiations his language was quite militaristic i would say he said that what the m.p.'s are trying is to get through jeremy covens surrender bill so surrendering is what things you will have to do if m.p.'s are indeed successful and are basically telling his hands and forcing him to go to the e.u. and asked for an extension he said on the no circumstances will he be willing to accept that so he is basically put portraying his own line on bricks that as the reasonable and he's also said that there were he's at a good way he was t

preferred i think in your very 1st answer to some of johnson's advisers in practitioners of the dark arts i assume you were referring to mr cummings and maybe you can tell us a bit about what you're bent yes so so dominate cummings is boris johnson special advisor and he has. become quite a big name amongst british politics for many years but also among the british public because a lot of finger pointing is going on at saying that he's the man responsible for a lot of this he was the man behind the vote believe come pain back in 2016 for the referendum that campaign succeeded and that is why the u.k. is leaving the view and everybody many people thought that that wouldn't be possible but he turned it round. his way is to make bricks it happen and he has the man behind boris johnson making sure that breaks it happens using the phrase this is what the people voted for back in 2016 this is democracy so you talk about boris johnson being on democratic well they will say no we are doing what the will of the people called for back in 2016 and this is democratic dominant cummings i myself have had some some dealings with him the
