and in the case, the aba interviewed more than 100 people, and the theme of the aba report reported is that some of them had unusual fear of repercussions. >> and evyes. >> and even though they were unanimous in the final report, they were horrified that steven graus with connections to the home state, it would get back to them that it was the person not saying great thing, and yet, he was confirmed and -- what does that tell you about the system? >> so, what i observed in the explanation by the chairman of trying to distinguish how this was in his view not a big deal is that they have attacked the aba as an institution. now they cling to it when to a aba ranks gorsuch well qualified, and so they are happy to use it as a credential when it is supporting them, but this is the first time also that they didn't let the aba tests fi at graus' hearing, and so the person who does the evaluation is usually testifying at the same hearing so that senators can say, well, how many people did you interview, and what type of information did they give? and so senator grassly as the chairman did not l

senators disparaged aba to discount the rating. but this was a stunning moment. because it wasn't just they hadn't had trial experience for 12 years or weren't 12 years out of law school. it was a very specific troubling thing. if you care that judges should be impartial. and i know all the lawyers in the room certainly understand how fundamental that is. but what the republicans on the senate judiciary committee said this year on grass is, that's not something that they are going to take into consideration. and that was incredibly troubling. and i'm afraid what precedent that sets. i don't think if you get a well qualified that's enough, or sufficient. but the fact that they found not qualified for bias should have given all 100 senators pause to give a lifetime appointment to the circuit court nominee. >> and i think it's important p as the representative here from lambda legal to sort of be specific about the fact that one of the biases, and in fact the key bias that was identified, was the ability to give fair and impartial jus

my name is jamie baker, the chair of the aba standing committee on law and national security. one of the missions of the committee on law and national security is to bring transparency to the national security law issues of the day and for that reason we're very pleased to happy to have c-span with us today. c-span2 will be broadcasting this live at this time. and for that reason when you ask questions we'd ask that you please identify yourself both so that the, our speakers know who you are as well as the larger audience. another of the missions of the aba is in non-partisan as well as bipartisan fashion to talk about highlight and advance the interests of national security law and do so in two-ways. one, to stand up for the principle of physical security, but do so consistent with our national security values. that's the essence of what the aba standing committee on law and national security is all about. that's also why i'm so pleased today that our speakers are discussing in fact are two people who spent their entire careers doing just that. standing up for the physical se

such harassment isn't unusual says the president of the mary refugee site in aba congolese soldiers often extort money from refugees or confiscate their belongings and sometimes even arrest refugees they suspect of being rebels. out this not for us we. created to ask you for some money. a lot of. south sudanese refugees in congo have received little international attention donors have funded less than a quarter of the united nations humanitarian appeal that means basic services like shelter are lacking this woman arrived in congo over a year ago but she's still waiting to build a house on the southern border in mongolia of all to build a circle and there is no way we haven't received anything since we arrived eleven months ago we're not even building materials. going to. this house where we are staying belongs to a relative and i did recall that in a minute and there are ten of us sharing a place that said it's not that i'm big on my in the i just want to. education is also proving a challenge many south sudanese refused to send their english speaking children to local francophone schools

also they did not let the aba testify at the hearing. the person who does the evaluation is usually testifying at the same hearing so senators can say how many people did you interview so senator grassley is the chairman today and let the aba testify tempering you sleep. so they discounted the rating. this was us dunning moment. this was a very specific and troubling thing if you care that judges should be a impartial. the lawyers certainly understand how fundamental that was. so what they said this year was that's not something they're going to take into consideration. i'm afraid of what precedented set. i don't think you get well-qualified that's enough. the fact that they found not qualified for bias should not have given a lifetime nominee to him. >> you're being specific about the fact that one of the bias was the it ability to give fair injustice to lgbt americans. that message was not lost on us. it shows how much work needs to be done because the only way in which will change this dynamic is to have the same level of outrage amon

a spokesman for abas said jerusalem is not for sale rebuffing not only the latest tweet but also presidentmp's recognition of jerusalem as the capital of israel a few weeks ago and we've seen similar sentiments from other leaders who said we will not be blackmailed on jerusalem. perhaps predictably some israeli ministers have hailed this threat from president trump encouraging him to do so saying it will put pressure on the pal sk skinians. netanyahu did not make a statement about it at his cabinet meeting. he decided to focus on other issues. it's worth looking at that tweet again because he said he's taking jerusalem off the table. that contradicts what he said just a few weeks ago when he said his recognition doesn't determine israeli's sovereignty in the holy city or borders. so trump's vision is on jerusalem remains unclear. >> all right. thank you so much for that. >>> joining us thisern mooi mor senior correspondent at bustle.com. we've got to start in north korea. a hot line open between the north and the south that could very well be trying to drive a wedge between the u.s. and se

that is fairly uns precedented given the fact -- unprecedented given the fact before year the aba had only issued that rating twice since 1989, and we have seen two more of these ratings this year already. the american people deserve qualified judges who will interpret the law fairly, and the best way to get judges who are fair and impartial is to have a solid evaluation and confirmation process and where the executive branch is collaborating with the senate and we have ample time to review and debate these nominees. at a time when we have seen unprecedented challenges to the judiciary and to the rule of law, we need appropriate checks to insure the selection of qualified nominees to both the executive and judicial branch now more than ever. before we turn to senator lankford, i would like to note that i'm glad we are having a hearing in this committee. i hope we will have more, mr. chairman, next year. and i also appreciate senator lankford's work on, with me on the sate election infrastructure issue, something that's exciting developments there and will be a great topic for a hearin
