ranking member biggs and members of the subcommittee. my name is gwen levi and i live in baltimore, maryland. in march 2020, when the first wave of the covid-19 pandemic hit, i was 16 years into my sentence for nonviolent drug offense. i was 74 years old and had just survived a bout with lung cancer. like so many other people in prison at the time, i was worried about the deadly virus spreading throughout the prison. there was no vaccine yet and being in prison made physical distancing and proper hygiene almost impossible. fortunately congress did pass the c.a.r.e.s. act in march. the law included a provision that allowed the federal bureau of prisons to send people home, to send people to home confinement for longer periods of time to save lives and limit the spread of covid-19. attorney general barr established a strict criteria for home confinement, limiting it to people who served more than half their sentence, had a clean disciplinary record for the past year, had no history of violence, and had a minimum score on the pattern risk a

russia is the second bigges exporter of crude oil after saudi arabia and is the world's largest natural exporter. news of russia's actions have led to steep falls on global stock markets, as european gas prices have surged by more than 30% foowing the invasion. europe is dependent on russia for oil and gas, with 40% of gas supplies flowing through pipelines that cross ukrainian territory. russia has long been resisting ukraine's shift towards the european union, but president putin's sense of grievance goes back to the collapse of the soviet union, and even further to russia's historic loss of territory and power. our world affairs editor john simpson looks at what is motivating the russian leader and what the invasion of ukraine means for the global balance of power. john: it's hard to avoid the feeling that the world as we have known it since the berlin wall came down in 1989 has changed for good. the soviet empire in europe was finished, and western notions of freedom had triumphed. after almost two more years, the revolution had reached russia itself. but after hapless coup attempt

just like out off hitler did in 1936 elim biggs, just before the start of the 2nd world war. and let's of course, not forget the issue of russia, but dissipation in these games. russia is not allowed to fly its flag because of the water decision at several years back. in fact, 2022 is the last year that russia can perform at international competitions under a different name on the different flag in this case, just like in tokyo, it will be r o c. and one of the prominent wind to athletes of russia's history, figure skating olympic champion, let's say you're good in launched an online petition saying that enough is enough that athletes already suffered enough and that the country should be allowed to fly its flag and thing its national anthem in the olympics, the petition has already been signed by more than 40000 people. anti covet messes, of course, have been pretty strict in the chinese capital, but tolerable work, especially compared to the arrival when at the airport. the tests were really, really difficult to take, but now every day i leave the hotel i have to take a p c

stuart: congressman andy biggs joins me.o get our people out. i don't believe you want american troops in ukraine facing against the russians. >> i don't and i believe him. i don't think he will send troops to bring americans out. stuart: how would you get americans out? >> you have to do what i would say what he is doing. tell everybody you got to get out. if you are going to stay you are going to stay but if you want to leave, you have to leave now because this thing is heating up fast. stuart: the shadow of afghanistan hangs over everything. >> it does. that is one reason we have different reasons for saying what we are saying but he doesn't want to see a replay of afghanistan. stuart: nobody does. what about the trekkers protesting the possibility of a truckers convoy across america to dc in time for the state of the union message. what do you make of it? >> i support it. civil disobedience perhaps but they have the right to protest. where they are protesting is they want freedom to do their job and it is a huge problem

. >> i see mister kluck isn't with us or recognize representative biggs for five minutes. >> this hearing of the subcommittee, none of the hearings have focused on the biden order crisis, none of the memoranda of the majority is prepared mention the border crisis which means the context of this hearing is out of whack a little bit, based on that you wouldn't know there is a border crisis. perhaps you are in denial that we are experiencing the worst border crisis in our history or policies implanted by president biden making the crisis worse and hoping if you don't acknowledge the crisis the american people will not realize how big a crisis we have on the southern border. since president biden took office evp has encountered 2 million illegal aliens at the southern border, doesn't include the got aways. dhs release hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens into our communities. all in violation of the law. secretary mayorkas has abused his authority to parole aliens into the country, 70,000 illegal aliens into the country. that's not normal. i suspect the actual number is higher. we know cbp

in addition to that, the bigges that we've ever seen, and in addition to that, we are hearin data scientistsl us that a full 25 percent of all jobs and north america will be remote by the end of this year. i don't think the trend is goin anywhere. i think a lot more parents are going to be finding themselves at home a lot more often with their children which i think is a wonderful silverlining for th situation. i don't think anybody watching the show would say they are fully satisfied with how authority figures have handled this pandemic right we see all around the world trying to institute a great reset and trying to remake society in their image, but the good thing is that what man intends for evil, god uses for good, so we have a golden opportunity here which is the biggest demographi of people who have left the workforce and either stayed hom or started working remotely are mothers of school-age children. so come out we are in special situation to take advantage of this and use it to our own benefit to kind of get away fro sending our kids somewhere seve or eight hours a day to be indoct

biggs has talked about the crisis at the border. we not only have people coming into this country that have diseases that stress our health care system -- and frankly cause illness and injury to our border security patrol officers, but we also have illegal drugs coming into this country across our southern border that stresses our health care system. fennel has been a scourge in this country. heroin has been a scourge in this country. neither of them are produced in this country. they are both imported illegal mostly across the southern border. and we also have an overwhelmed immigration system that can't handle the kinds of thapgs that we're talking about, much less putting on another burden, another stress with the the necessity of looking at applications from doctors overseas. so i think you really should acknowledge that the -- there are more than 5 factors that cause the problem that we're dealing with. it's not just an aging population. it's not just a growing population. it is really a -- a series of very poor policy decision
