black and which shows the chestnut combine is like a little funky. just keeps going, right. it's uh yeah, but always have any idea of what hes applying. let's go right back. mr. less than that because i'm assuming i understood patricia. this is correspondence between black and beach and ukraine's health service, notifying them of experiments to study the crime me and come go see the virus. wish i chose to get the ball. what i'm to be screaming at the realization and it face to face, get those and show of course the problem because clearly kafka what it was cool was to address so clearly to pronounce that convey each is the main equipment supply of pentagon, bio labs globally del ray agency and the infamous for distributive bar trees to a huge customers. there's a reason why d t already received the contract from the us department of defense to study a new strain of corona virus. long before the pandemic start of the cross opening on you are going to going to do with lots such or send you those are to do with us the little the color the smoke of induce most of it's i'm not sure nipple the table in position or what i wish to meet, you know, with, i'm granted e

mr. turner, great to see you. ms. hill. happy black history month. i believe as a public works event going on here shortly. >> yes. try to get us moving if you could return to slide ten. deputy director robertson did a very good job with the last and in the accounting team of projecting the city's upcoming deficit what it means and i'm just wondering while this slide is labeled retirement status, i wonder if it's also a good kind of future budgetary planning slide also and my my question here and i think it piggybacks on commissioner wolfowitz's question is i'd like to know the breakdown of these positions and upcoming retire ment's and i think we just need to be realistic about how we support and have honest conversations around how we could potentially leverage retirement to i believe a prepare for what will be a pretty tough budget seasons coming up. i wanted to ask one if that is sensible to make that type of request not just the detail but is there a way in which we can do some forward planning around these potential up to upcoming retirements n

i'm i'm glad to hear a black woman mrs. sonia mansfield in mansfield will gain contracting. hat is a great, great news but there are a plethora of qualified black women in san francisco that also deserve opportunity. so we must not just stand on 1 or 2 because that doesn't justify the community parity does pre qualifications also make an impact almost impossible for qualified minority firms to gain access we must build low income housing and provide homes. special thanks to the cac is only part of brilliant work they do in the hard work they do also mr. elder i'm oscar james who i'm very proud to work alongside and detained at the south east community center with the president and mr. demetrius williams also serve hyper local contractors trade collective i'm glad to hear all the updates from the city copy everyone is doing great work and the community working diligently but am i on new developments make it difficult is going to make it difficult in the future to pay for it for a demographic of low income residents of san francisco we must be careful not to place minority feal

mr. turner: it's ironic. i was watching the -- dating myself. the kennedy-nixon debate. on the floor in the living room in acres home with my mom and dad. and black and white television. and they were the commentators. my mom and my dad. neither one graduated from high school. but they were the ones saying to each other, kennedy represents the people. this other guy, eh, we don't know. but that's who we like. i was 6 or 7 years old. sitting on the floor. taking it all in. and quite frankly, it caught my attention. and i said to myself, one of these days, i'm going to be on that stage. >> were your parents involved in politics? >> they believed in voting. they didn't go to a college, they didn't graduate from high school. but when it came time to vote, they voted. my dad was a union guy. that helped elevate our family from where we were, made life a lot better. they both focused on making sure their kids had an opportunity for an education more than what they did. so when it came time to school, my mom and dad, they were there. when it came time for my homework, they didn't know algebra and all that they just knew, you need to be doing your homewo

kind of fires in the sky to remove those black black spots that ukraine is going to see what is coming their way is, is like it borders on catastrophic. so mr. michael you is saying board is on catastrophic a game changer. and is this o 2 most twisty on of the lens when it comes to this minerals deal? perhaps you can give us some context on us as well. yeah, well you see, that's what we kind of figured out. you would think that in it, it was, it was probably the rumbling yesterday of best. there's a lot of space. you have to bend over backwards for mr. trump, to, you know, apologize and say, let's get things moving stuff that he did that box with tech. and yet today, the americans come for give the russians another big gift and say we're, we're pausing this until. and um, there's cannot, it certainly cannot be replaced by the europeans, at least not to the extent of the americans provided. but yeah, i mean, what was supposed to happen next after last night was, you know, when the apology games, which mr. trump posted about during his speech to congress, is that things were proceeding diplomatically the minerals deal would be discussed, and

black women something else. boy, that. that is an intuition gift right there. mrs.knowles carter was given a similar special card by popeyes, but told oprah in 2003, quote, i've never used it because i've been too embarrassed. to be embarrassed at popeyes. beyonce. they ain't drinking sweet tea out of a bag. it's not just the queen bee and warren buffett who've been giving free fast food cards. let's play a quick game. i'm going to name a famous person. you all tell me which of these two restaurant chains gives them free food. first up, emily blunt. did she eat classy jamba juice or dairy queen? >> that's got to be jamba juice. >> it has to be because i would punch everyone i know for a free dairy queen. >> emily blunt gets free. dairy queen. >> cows. >> that's a perfect parent, boy. you get a blizzard and a blunt. that's a good thing. all right, let's do one more. yes. checkers or burger king? where does jay leno. >> yeah. >> i'll go. >> with burger king. i think it's burger king. >> jay leno eats free at burger king. >> are. yeah. >> yeah, actually, burger king ga

[cheering] i just love being with you guys every day because it feels like every day we get news of a another inexplicable chaotic move seemingly bent on undermining everything we as americans hold dear. and today is no different because kfc is moving its corporate headquarters from kentucky to texas. that is finger-lickin' [bleep]. what is going on? what is happening? what's next? jersey mike's becomes maine mickey's? will papa john step down as pizza pope? burger king abdicates his throne to marry a common nugget? because kentucky fried

mr. donalds, she lives in naples, florida with her three sons, jack brewer is a chairman of the jack brewer foundation, recently jack was cochair of blackfor trump victory fund. he's a white appointee on the congressional commission for the social status of black men and boys and currently the lead independent director for the geo group. he was the nfl's minnesota vikings, the philadelphia eagles, you may have heard of recently. [laughter] and what i find to be the pinnacle of his career, at the new york giants. i can't help myself, being born in brooklyn. let's lay the foundation of you don't mind for this topic. erica, talk about the current state of particularly the public education system. >> public education system in america has literally failed the american people. it has not lived up to the promise where we, parents, were told if you send your child to this school for eight hours a day, we are going to teach them to read and do math and achieve their own american dream. that was a lie. we just found out a few weeks ago that only a third of our students are doing reading and math on grade level according to the national report ca

mr. zelenskyy probably made a decision at the last minute to go in his kind of trademark ukrainian olive green or black, um, kind of uniform. >> yeah, he has since said that, uh, if once the war is over, he will wear a a suit or costume, as he puts it. >> right? yeah, they call it a costume here. but just quickly, i think that, um, you know, there was a big, big fear here in ukraine and by a lot of observers that mr. putin, who we haven't mentioned yet, but he may see this void as an opportunity to go further in ukraine. um, maybe nikolayev, maybe odessa, because right now, as we said, frederica, there is no solid red lines enforced by the united states. so just quickly, what he could do, what the americans could do, um, to make it easier for mr. putin to switch off the starlink service. they could stop giving intelligence info to the ukrainians and very crucially, disable the patriot patriot missile defense system that would leave ukraine very, very exposed. we'll see what happens. >> big fears for ukraine, indeed. all right. michael bociurkiw always great to see you. thank you so much. continue to be

black eye for crypto but it's brazen corruption. i am disappointed more people in the crypto industry have not said similar things. >> i appreciate that. i asked each of the witnesses whether you share mrhat. >> taking a bigger step back and i say this my written testimony as well. we havest seen some the worst scams using crypto. i agree a black eye on the industry. legislation that clarifies the legal framework for stable coin will help to fight against the worst of the bad behavior. they will provide clear lines in the law enforcement and regulators easily distinguish between the good and the bad. >> were some bad behavior, mr. gentleman? >> with respect to the mean coin market facts are so important. we have over 300 assets listed. than 10% of those are mean coin. it is not a new phenomenon. didn't two coin is over 10 years old. this is not a new thing. it is trending now. part of the reason there has beencu a focus on coins as is meant regulatory uncertainty in the united states to create much of anything else. we have had developers looking to build protocols and technology that many different use cases. it's clear they are not securities. they are trending at the moment. whateve

mr. president. >> joining me. >> now, april ryan, who you just saw in that clip. she's washington bureau chief and senior white house correspondent for blackrmer chief spokesperson for then vice president kamala harris and of course, co-host of the program the weekend right here on msnbc. good morning to both of you, and nice to see you again. symone, april, i really wanted to talk to you about this because that clip is important. i remember talking to you the day it happened or maybe the next day. it's important because the press is there to do a job. it's not there to be friends with the president. it's not there to not be friends with the president. it's not, it's not. it's you're just meant to hold people to account. but you can see from that clip why, if there were no guardrails on this, wouldn't the president just want friendlies around all the time? >> well, first of all, i want to put context on that clip because i was sitting close enough to the president to hear me. i said, sir, what about voter suppression? and he said, i have your voter suppression. and so when a president respect for the president, when the president addresses

million people were lifted out of poverty, black, hispanic and asian american experienced historic high incomes and all-time low unemployment. here's the reality, mrchairman. our democrat colleagues oppose the american people's tax cuts back in 2017 and oppose the tax cuts today. and if they were successful in this endeavor, here's what would happen, we would have a 22% tax hike on every american citizen on average. they just suffered through a 21% tax hike from the inflation tax over the last four years and the worst cost of link crisis in modern history. median income, families would lose $1700. 26 million small businesses would pay at the highest marginal rate, lose the 20% deduction putting them on a comparable level of tax rates. child tax credits, families, 40 million families would have the tax credit for their children cut in half and 91% of the american people to get the standard deduction would have that cut in half. those are the results of the democrats standing in the way of what would be, if they were successful, the highest tax hike in american history. here's the other false claim, to pay for these tax cuts, the dell cats are going

mr. chairman i've seen the video you sent out. it is utterly disgusting to the american taxpayer that we are funding that kind of behavior. all of these programs gave usaid a black eye. and that's unfortunate. because you go back to the marshall plan, really, the genesis for thinking about usaid, the marshall plan is one of the most successful programs we endeavored in after world war ii to make sure hitler never rose from the ashes again. the food for peace program that you discussed, the american farmer benefits from this, it's been extremely successful. why was usaid created in the first place in 1961? it was to counter the soviet union during the cold war. i believe it still has a legitimate purpose to counter the rising threat of china and belt and road, and our other foreign adversaries. it also has the ability to counterterrorism. lindsey graham and i passed the global fragility act, state, usaid all working together to stabilize, destabilized nations, which breed terrorism. pepfar, one of the most successful global health programs ever developed under president trump, yet, all of this is called into question because of the irresponsibility of the biden a

mr. carter over stone to finish the last year of his term. i will say i find it profoundly ironic that we just spent the last hour and a half two hours recognizing and honoring black and brown leaders and visionaries who dedicated themselves to uplifting their communities only to hear a resolute resolution aimed at tearing down another immediately after. i find it shameful then when mr. carter over stone was addressing you. many of you didn't even have enough respect to look him in the eyes though you're deciding his fate. i moved here from the south in hopes of escaping miscarriages of justice such as what i'm seeing today and hopes of finally being somewhere where i can feel safe in my own skin only to find myself surrounded by pseudo conservatives and neo liberals hiding behind a thin veil of liberalism spouting hateful rhetoric akin to mcconnell of my home state of kentucky. i found san francisco is not an anti-racist city and instead a city with a sordid history of displacing black and latino communities repeatedly a history of racially biased policies that unfairly targeted black latino and arab communities and a city in support of anti vagrancy laws that ar
