that was a tough decision. i was thinking about the 5000 small businesses around the country, my 1000-plus employees, and i was like, this is painful but it is what we have to do. it turned out we needed every ounce of that capital to get through the crisis, and we thrived afterward. making the decision to walk away from the private sector and run for office, which is something i wanted to do, but you are putting yourself out there in a way i never had to. those were tough decisions. >> let me conclude with one political issue because you have been involved in gerrymandering. you served in the house of representatives. the argument is that democrats and republicans are talking at each other, not to each other. how would you fix congressional districts? do you think that would make our politics less toxic? mr. delaney: yes. it is one of the most significant issues we face, and i led on this issue in congress, and i introduced a bill called the open our democracy act. it does things like make election day a holid

serious questions remain about how the decision was reached precipitously with syria and why the decision was reached. given the initial details of the cease-fire agreement, the administration must also explain what americans future role will be the region. what happens in and out of the cards and why turkey will face no apparent consequences. for the cease-fire does not change the fact that the america has abandoned an ally. adding insult to dishonor, the administrationsp speaks cavalierly, even flippantly. even is rli has suffered death, and casualty. their homes have been burned and their families have been torn apart. we know the truth about occurred allies. they lost 11000 combatants in a joint effort to defeat isis. we dropped bombs from the air and provided intelligence and logistics behind the lines. the curse lost thousands of lives.ve eighty-six brave americans also lost their lives so tragically. it is argued that the cars we're fighting for themselves. of course they work. that is the nature of annoyance. we fight together each pursuing our own vital interest. american leaves

about its affairs in the wake of the decision, does it in a 4-1-4 decision, what is that party supposed to do. >> we won this case but can't rely on it because we don't know because it has no decisis effect it is the years go by and nothing happens -- >> in the ordinary case. subject to the ordinary principles of decisis, the one thing that makes this case unusual, a they did rely on the prior case, the defendant instead of asking for a different rule and that tells you something about how discredited the fifth vote is because it makes a universe of one. i haven't found any other case where somebody has come to this court and said i'm not going to make an argument based on provision of the constitution in which the previous decision rests. >> back to the math question that was alluded to. capable of doing this math, somebody could. if there is a jury pool with a certain percentage of jurors who were inclined to acquit and is there a greater likelihood of acquittal with a 6-0 verdict than a 10-2 verdict or if the state decides to have a jury that is bigger than 12, a 15-1 or a 15 person

so a decision like that -- so i it depends on the decision. obviously, the most important in your life ike think at least for me was my to marry april which wasn't the hardest decision, in many ways it was the easiest decision, but it was the most important decision. that felt right from the beginning. i've had some hard business decisions to make in the middle of a financial crisis. i was running my company, it was had $15 billion of assets, we were lending money to companies, all of which depended upon us financing them money. in other words, the companies we financed, every week called us up to get access to their lines of credit and the financial crisis was happening and large financial institutions were and ising left and right made a decision to raise a lot of capital for my company and i and i lot made of -- excuse my of crap, i took a lot from the market to do it. my investors were furious with my decision because it was a market and wethe were raising capital at a relatively low price in our price because all companies' stocks had gon

no final decisions have been taken. i cannot tell you what the decision will be.simply what the basic parameters are. in the various ways we are trying to achieve such a success. i will stop there. palmer.el: mr. mr. palmer: i do not have a formal opening statement but i look forward to answering any questions members of the committee may have. rep. engel: thank you very much. let me ask you this, according to media reports including fox news, president trump went off callt during the october 6 in which he was supposed to tell erdogan to stay north of the border. instead, the president capitulated and gave the green andt for turkey to invade announced the united states would withdraw troops ahead of a turkish operation. ,et me ask you first of all were you consulted ahead of the october 6 call? could you push the button? mr. jeffrey: i was consulted almost daily by secretary of state pompeo. issue we discussed this on almost a daily basis with president trump. this is something we have been working on since the issue was raised publicly. of course, he had taken a

decisions. why did you make this decision to report critically ill kids for almost all the other decisions that you had to make at the agency? >> the timing is right you can answer the question. we >> don't report anyone. we made the decision at the end of a long road that predates me coming into my current position and discussions across dhs. it was made on august 7th, at that point it is my decision and one of the things that we testify to from what we had in the last hearing is to your point there are trade offs as we know quite correctly that 1000 of these cases absorb resources which we are not paid for that would otherwise deal with the problems in the naturalization cases and we did more last year than in the whole decade and there are still more coming in and i hear from many all legitimately concerns about backlogs in some areas and improved in erie areas. we have limited resources and this is an undertaking by uscis that as not been assigned by congress and with the authority to have t

-1-4 decision? what is a party supposed to do? we won this case but we really can't rely on it because it has no stare decisis effect, and then what happens as the years go by and nothing happens, the court doesn't come back to that question? >> that at least is in the ordinary case, the party would have every right to rely on this court's decision, subject to the ordinary principles of stare decisis that were deciding. one thing that makes this case unusual is you would think if the party did rely on that prior case it would come up and defend instead ask the court for a different rule. that tells you something about how discredited the fifth vote in this case is, which i think makes it almost a universe of one. i've looked and haven't that any of the case where somebody has come up to this court and said, i'm not even going to make an argument based on the provision of the constitution in which the previous decision rests. >> can i come back to the math question that was alluded to earlier? i must

they aren't easy decisions anymore.very band we look at today for new wireless service is something that's going to potentially alter somebody else, whether they are nearby or in the band today. we have to deal with that reality. that makes some agencies jittery about things that they use the service for. we are an independent regulatory agency that has a statute that governs our activity and we are also governed by the record. we respect agencies and their views, but their licenses are governed, in some instances, by nka, and work through nka. that's how we treat others in the space. gopal: so, speaking of those differences and how they get worked out, there has been a lot of reporting i and others have done on nasa and noaa, both saying a decision by the commission to allocate one of the bands of 5g could interfere with weather forecasting. people from the fcc have said that's not necessarily the case. can you help us understand where the differences could have emerged? was there a different set of models used by the

serious questions remain how that decision was reached with that withdrawal and why the decision was reached given the initial details of the cease-fire agreement the administration must explain the future role and why turkey will face no consequences and the cease-fire does not change the fact that it has been an ally adding insult to dishonor it speaks cavalierly and fluently even as the ally has suffered death and casualty. we know the truth about our kurd allies they lost 11000 combatants in a joint effort to combat isis. t we drop bombs in the air the kurds lost thousands of lives 86 brave americans also lost lives tragically. it is argued they were fighting for themselves. of course they were. that's the nature of an alliance. we fight together each pursuing our own tsu vital sinterest. america leaves no soldiers behind, often a great trust we recover our dead and wounded in freemen and women who are held captive. this is a matter of american honor and promise. so as we stand by our allies we do not abandon our friends the decision to abandon the kurds violates one of the most

house of representatives took that decision today do you think it was a decision made out of conviction or was it congress rebuking presidents trump and air to one firstly let me just say that no country has right to impose their own version of a story on another country and especially when it when the when there are no historians. and there are no researchers spoken about this but politicians it is very clear that this is a public site decision it has nothing to do with the facts and it has nothing to do with the story this is something we have been very very open from the beginning we have opened our archive which includes over $1000000.00 documents related to this part of history and we have been saying the same thing to our contra parts around the world including armenian government but we haven't seen that we cannot make such decisions politically especially when there are no evidence we cannot we cannot create. we cannot create money factual genocide accusations when they're actually the real genocide they did the escape from acknowledging the example french genocide in algeria wh

again, i'd be happy to make a decision right now, but i can't. that. [laughter] so it is going to be up to courts. but i think there's pretty strong press tent that makes -- precedent that makes clear at the state level it's going to be a high hurdle. >> guest: i disagree. and, you know, whatever we said in 2015, the states will, trust me, when i go and speak to, you know, the state the groups of state regulators and local regulators, they get really, really angry at what we said in 2015, and they will argue, again, these preemption cases are going to be extremely fact-intensive. i was at a meeting with a bunch of state ags, and they really warned us it's hard to draw a conclusion about what's going to happen in these cases because they're so fact-intensive. the only thing i will repeat again is that -- and it's possible that, you know, patrick and his allies will find, you know, will scour the communications act for provisions that give them some authority to claim conflict preemption. but the arguments the fcc made in front of the court were basicall

how can america be trusted to word when we make mpulsa decisions -- impulsive decisions that have an immediate and catastrophic impact on millions of people? ongress must speak out against this disgrace. the measure we're considering unambiguous, d an bipartisan, hopefully bicameral policy in f frump's sear -- trump's policy in syria. this measure calls on the white strong, clearop a strategy on how to defeat isis now that president trump has its resurgence. it expresses strong support for forces, urdish recognizing their commitment and against s in fight isis. and it calls on turkey to its military op syria.in at president trump's hands, american leadership has been laid low and american foreign olicy has become nothing more than a tool to advance his own interests. oday, we make clear that the congress is a co-equal branch of government, and we want nothing disastrous his policy. so, mr. speaker, i say to our colleagues, it is on us. us to uphold our country's values, to strengthen security, to defend america's standing in the world. on both all members sides of the aisle to suppor

as you know we had made a decision and i've always said that we may arrive one night unannounced and this decisiveness continues because we can no longer accept the threats caused to our country by these terrorist groups the problem is that these areas are under the control of the syrian democratic forces the longstanding kurdish allies of the u.s. who led the fight against always so but now in what appears to be a major decision the americans say they will not protect their kurdish allies if turkey attacks them on care after. as being fortified 3 are called the white p.g. linked to the kurdistan workers' party or p k k which it deems the terrorist organization the s.d.f. reacted strongly to the u.s. decision calling it a betrayal the group say's it close to 11000 men and women fighting against oyster and fellow american demands to pull back from areas controlled by turkish backed forces. many items have been implemented on the ground including the items of security mechanism agreement removing heavy weapons and gear on the border as required. to the residents of this area we say do

that it is good to choose one ftc decision over the other. that is what they say the internet act does. host: who brings this to the supreme court? the ftc or the interest groups? gigi is closer to the interest groups and can answer that for their side. i don't know is the short answer. gigi: first, we can go back to the court itself. we can go back to the actual panel or go back to the entire d.c. circuit. i think we are still reviewing it. it has only been a week. we're still figuring out what is going to be next. host: georgetown law institute of technology. gigi stone and patrick kelly, thank you for being on the communicators. this episode and all others are available as podcasts.

the president's decision is a disaster for our partners in the fight against isis and the united states foreign policy more broadly spoken. while i welcome the temporary cease-fire announced a short time ago and hope that a permanent cease-fire can be achieved, it does not absolve president trump of responsibility for his betrayal of our kurdish partners and his role in unleashing violence and instability in northern syria. it is not clear whether turkey made any concessions as part of the deal struck with the u.s. delegation or whether kurdish forces will comply. if not, i am concerned that additional violence is likely to follow and we'll have little leverage to prevent it. in fact, there is a quote attributed to the turkish foreign minister by the white house reporter at cnn. she quotes the turkish foreign minister as saying this is not a cease-fire. we will poise the operation for 1 -- pause the operation for 120 hours for the terrorists to leave. we will only stop the operation if our conditions are met. indeed, even this supposed cease-fire may not materialize as a cease-fire. but

court of appeals decision on internet regulation, also known as net neutrality.oining us to discuss this issue gigi sohn, former fcc chair tom wheeler's adviser, currently with the georgetown law institute for technology. and the senior vice president at u.s. telecom, trade association patrick halley washington, d.c. give us of lawyers assessment of what the d.c. court of appeals ruled. >> the d.c. court of appeals ruled that the sec's decision was permissible in the industry storing internet freedom order. it was completely upheld. it was a big win for consumers and innovators and a big win for broadband in america. essentially, with the court said was that the sec's decision to regulate broadband internet access as an information service as it largely has been for the last 20 years outside of a two-year period. under the title to order, was permissible. it is consistent with supreme court precedent and this d.c. circuit judge going to make a determination that the fcc's classification was incorrect. because it is within their discretion as the expert agency to

they made that decision. for investigators, if you are trying to figure out if there is a conspiracy people are trying to commit a crime if the question was did the secretary set up a server to circumvent record of laws, if any of us in this room were conspiring to do something in an fbi agent wanted to figure out the conspiracy they would want the communications early on in the so the reason this became relevant is because later on in the course of this other investigation into anthony atweiner, which i will save my view of him, but found himself under investigation-- you can google it-- the fbi found out laptop that barack-- along to him that had a lot of hillary clinton's e-mails on him because his wife was heard this-- assistant. so the fbi decided this might be the set of e-mails we don't have. people can agree or disagree.th the second part about whether it violated fbi policy, there is not a policy out there that says that you can't open an investigation. there has long been a norm that the fbi departm

cardin: then you agree with the president's decision? the decision?s a professional, you are fully in accord to the president's decision to relocate our troops? mr. jeffrey: i carry out the instructions of the president. sen. cardin: my question is to you, you know said it didn't have any effect, so do you agree with his policy or not? mr. jeffrey: i agree that presidents have to make that decision, not people in the bureaucracy such as me. sen. cardin: for the record, you did not answer my question. sen. risch: thank you, senator. senator rubio. sen. rubio: thank you. and i apologize this has been asked before. i wanted to get some clarity. the u.s. policy towards syria , the official policy as it was described was that it had three objectives, prevent the resurgence of isis, number two to give the u.s. leverage and any future political solution in syria that would be -- so that they would arrive at an arrangement pursuant to the security council resolution, which calls for a new constitution and new election, and the withdrawal of all iranian forces

the decision is still in your lap. so your thoughts. >> i think that forcing the -- the government to have its case in essence complete at the 32, i think -- dsh i can't say that there is not value in that, right. i mean, the obvious -- it appears to be common sense that the government should have its strongest case as early as possible. i am -- would be concern about two things. and the first is, is -- well let me just -- i think i'll say my concern is that that may be unnecessary delay in waiting until the -- it may cause unnecessary dpla in waitidelay waiting for the 32 -- the case can continue to improve as it works through the process. there is a value at least in the military justice system of allowing a case to proceed versus waiting too long before initial disposition. >> so i certainly takes your -- sorry. >> i'm sorry. >> i certainly take your point as far as it may force the government's hand to have a better case to present prior to going to the 32. but i think if we were going down that road, it would nega

clearly the decision stops them in their tracks.t's raising the bar of getting a deal done. it's a high level. especially given that this is one of the first times that we've seen the u.s. wrap in human rights concerns with their economic deals with china. so even though we heard from a commerce department spokesperson says saying the action was not related to the upcoming talks, there's a lot of investor nervousness in the air. >>> southwest airlines are now officially suing boeing saying that the company had misled them over the safety of the boeing 737 max planes. these are planes that have been grounded for seven months after the two fatal crashes. they say that the plane's grounding has cost them more than a hundred million dollars in lost income. they had 34 of those planes and more orders for the boeing 737 max than any other airline in the u.s. boeing said we believe this lawsuit is meritless and will defend against? >> it finally, e-cigarettes, kroger and walgreens are the latest retailers to announce they'll stop selling e

these were decisions that did not dig deeply into that issue. then something like a game of telephone, some of the court decisions were repeated by others in time went by and there was a thought that sexual orientation was not covered. in 1989 supreme court issued a decision in a case called price waterhouse, it found that sex stereotyping was a form of sex discrimination and violated the civil rights act. that's another argument we make in this case, punishing a person for failing to conform to a stereotype of who they should be attracted to or partnered with the because of their sex is sex stereotyping. nevertheless, some courts persisted in believing wrongly that sexual orientation is not covered. in two thousand 15, the equal employment opportunity the equal employment opportunity commission issued a thoroughly looked into the legal matter, in light of several supreme court decisions and reach the conclusion that sexual orientation is a form of sex discrimination that violates the civil rights act. this decision was followed by the seventh c

people will not take these decisions until the political decisions are taken.sitive that we'll see an orderly brexit, but investors still want to see it on the table. there have been too many times the project has been delayed and now they're just holding out and waiting for investments. you can see that how investment in the uk has fallen off a cliff. that is not good as a dynamic part of the economy, so, you know, where i see a big risk is kind of broad based investor strike at the moment about the uncertainty that we have in the global economy, which is politically made rather than made by markets. and that's a really bad environment. >> meanwhile, jeff asked imf deputy managing director if weak data in china and the united states is encouraging both sides to work an agreement. >> the economic slow down itself has its own reasons, which this is true for both countries but of course, i think the policy decision makers, in their minds the economic consequences of the trade tensions. and certainly i don't think any of the leaders or decision makers -- very much

allies to make those decisions. i will focus as we divide this book up i focused on those two figures so i'm sure he will have a lot to say about everything including those two chapters. so what are the lessons and what made thesee people great? each of these we could talk forever about but the question trying to be as telegraphic as i can for purposes of time, we focused on what was truly important. he had a central miss and to end homelessness after 2000 years. not an easy thing tons take on he was tactically agile to achieveli that objective he what is zionism to britain in 1939 with the white papers and then phased out jewish immigration and then to start all over again with united states he actually lived here at the hamilton hotel on k street. this is the goal parkway thought it was the achievement now we have to change. he believes you need a mindset for the institution to link the people with the land. so immigration was the oxygen of zionism of unrelenting focus if you wanted to compromise on that issue tha

, this one on media ownership, and i want to quote from the decision. and this was about -- against the fcc, that the fcc did not add a adequately consider the effect of its sweeping media ownership rule changes, that that will have on ownership of broadcast media by women and racial minorities. >> guest: i disagreed with that analysis from the 3rd circuit. this is something the 3rd circuit has sent back four times. there is no amount of data that we can give them, all administrations have not been able to get past the threshold that the 3rd circuit has established here, and i've said we should challenge this in another forum whether it be an en banc situation or go to supreme court which i think, ultimately, we'll have to do, go to supreme court. there's no path we can get to what they're asking for. i disagree with their fundamental premise, their activity because it is locking in the status quo which is not reflective of the current media marketplace today. the marketplace that we have today is not the same one as when you wrote the original position

make a decision. as evidence changes come you have to adapt. listen to everybody but ultimately when you make a decision, people have to start -- stop harping. that's what we are going to do, we've heard all the evidence, now we are going to figure out how to implement that decision and we will go with that. that's high you run organizations efficiently. openly, consistently, but decisively. steve: if there is a second trump term, what would that mean for the country? mr. steyer: [laughter] that would be, i would have to he is someone who is deeply corrupt. workse who actively against the interests of the vast majority of americans. you see someone who is incompetent in his job, not just in terms of decision-making power but actually putting together an organization and administration that functions. on every level, this man is a failure. to see that continue for another four years would be disastrous. when you include the climate problem where there's an absolute need to move expeditiously, quickly,

a decision not taken is okay. she didn't really measure up. >> last question, yes. >> it is a bit off-topic for the middle east, i must have your reaction from the piece team. >> i felt you can disagree on points here and there, three key members of the piece team, his learning curve was most pronounced of the three. he was looking for win/win and time to go through every one of them. if jared kushner looked up the economic parts of the peace plan that were unveiled in bahrain, and final status issues. on the political issues, jerusalem borders all that and departure has to be seen as a real setback. he believes this plan is to be unveiled. i noticed he doesn't use the word plan, this is our reference point for the future. all sides are sitting around the table. i knew he was paying for this. that's what i take from it. there is a conspiracy school but what is good about this, we will know within 12 days if it is accurate. but they start within hours. did he quit because trump was about to make a move in the next

until the government reverses its decision. well let's get more on this now we're joined by mathias e. bout a freelance journalist and he is live for us from. ecuador very good to have you with us on our 0 so how likely is the government to back down on these fuel price hikes if you hear the president on especially the dome of the voice of the president you would say that the president is not the ready. for their buck but this edition is critical no every hour into the war at the moment the presidential palace in iraq waded. through millions of the blood of men around the violence. and mr ziebell we're hearing all kinds of people who have been out protesting and the ginnis trade unions especially involving bass and lorry drivers do they represent how. how much do they represent the sort of sentiment about these austerity measures and fuel hikes in the country. we know that if they're the prize of the future in green it will affect the whole of society you know not just the indigenous groups not just the lower your dogs your bus

i commanded him for that decision. just because you make some decisions, and you must as a commander-in-chief, and you must make those decisions for the security of this country, doesn't mean that his foreign policy overall has not been a disaster. the decision to get out of the iranian nuclear agreement, which has allowed iran to now bust the caps to enrich uranium, the decision to get out of the russian nuclear weapons agreement, the decision to get out of the climate change agreement at a time when our world is warming, sea levels are rising and we're seeing floods and fires all over the world, those were very bad decisions. >> brennan: so unlike other democratic candidates, would you pledge to keep u.s. troops in syria? >> i would not have removed those 150 troops. i would not have given in to erdogan. >> brennan: so you would keep them? >> i would have kept them there. this never would have happened. but now this damage has been done, so the question is, what do you do now? well, you keep eyeing trying to use your

what he meant by that is when you base these decisions you face them alone one wonders when the decision was made and the planes were in the air, he wrote two different letters. one was a letter to explain what happened and the other was to submit his resignation in the event that it went through very badly and i was in, he was our negotiator in 1994. heavily involved in trying to get the palestinians to give us any information they knew and it turned out that they were not behind it. the israelis found where they were being held. they conducted an operation and he was killed. being in response to the first, and sharon when it comes to making the decision on gaza they are heavily influenced by the institution and how they defined the leadership, how they defined responsibility. he got a scholarship to go study water engineering at uc berkel berkeley. but he stayed afterwards because it is interesting. the commander units feel too little attention is devoted and he feels they did what was necessary to prepare. they have the capacity to look ahead. they are not afraid to make decisions. th

government will delay any decision on huawei until after the federal election. decision on whether and to what extent huawei can participate in the 5g rollout, likely now, according to two sources, to be delayed, until 2020. other countries like canada have yet to make a decision on huawei 's participation in the 5g network. we are also focusing on one of huawei's competitors, apple reporting after the close of trading. the company is set to face a major test today when it gives its outlook for the key holiday period. analysts expect to see the iphone business still shrinking. to break it down for us is mark gurman in san francisco. what will be key to the quarter? especially when you consider we are looking for the business to shrink but the stock has been doing just fine, thank you very much and in far this year. >> the stock has been doing fine but what likely apple will be reporting over the holiday quarter is that iphone unit sales continue to decline on a year-over-year basis, as well as revenues now, despite the higher prices. investors and analysts will

and that leads to disastrous decision making because it leads to impulsive decision making based on whatnot what actually may be true or false. and we're seeing that every day where his rejection of expertise. north korea, iran, the kurds, the trade war. i mean, all problems that experts warned him over and over again would cause problems but he doesn't want to hear it. >> so, tom, let's make people uncomfortable right now. because this has been happening a lot recently. this has been happening, in fact, throughout the entire century with our commanders and chief. -- chiefs. you can talk about barack obama, the constant complaint i heard from diplomats and democratic senators and foreign policy experts who were rooting for the guy was barack obama always believed he was the smartest guy in the room. he didn't want to hear from generals, he didn't want to hear -- he always believed he was -- i'm nol nt saying that, just telling you and i know you heard it too that he always believed that. and it led him to a foreign policy apparatus where it was the president and ben rhodes and sometimes

there are no easy decisions. every band we are looking at today for new wireless service is something that's going to potentially alter someone else, whether they are nearby or in the band today. we have to deal with that fact and that reality. that makes some agencies jittery about things they use the service for. we are an independent regulatory agency that has a statute that governs our activity and also governed by the record. we respect agencies who weigh in on their views that their licenses are governed in some instances by ndaa and that process but we also have to respect it when we talk about harmful interference which is our standard it so different from how we treat federal agencies can how we treat others in this space. >> speaking of differences and etiquette work out, there's been a lot of reporting and i and others have done on nasa and atmospheric noaa, saying the decision by the commission to allocate one of the vans for 5g could potentially interfere with the weather forecasting. people from the
