members of one of america's richest families have been grilled by congress about their role in fueling the opioid crisis the sockless owners of pharma makers of the highly addictive painkiller oxycontin last month the firm pleaded guilty to illegally pushing the drug but the settlement with the u.s. department of justice freed them from criminal liability out of the castro reforms i'm not sure that i'm aware of any family in america that's more evil in your words some members of congress didn't mince words toward david and cathy sackler cousins and former board members of purdue pharma the company whose oxycontin pill helped to fuel the opioid epidemic that's claimed the lives of nearly half a 1000000 americans the to sack lawyers declined to take responsibility for their families role in the crisis there is nothing that i can find that i would have done differently based on what i believed them understood then. oh i believe oh i conducted myself. out there and i believe the record will demonstrate i still feel absolutely terrible last month produced pharma pled guilty to 3 felonies in

america. but even if this congress wasn't ending in five days and we had time to figure out how to pay for it, you know how we can't pay for it? cutting foreign aid. president trump has been talking a lot about foreign aid in the last week. now, the money we spend on foreign aid all supported by democrats and republicans over the years, all of it smart investments in our nation's security, that actually wasn't in the covid relief package. it was in thage budget as it always is. it just happens the covid relief package and annual budget were passed together. but just for argument sake, let's say trump got his way and every single dollar of foreign aid was cut out of the budget. would that pay for the $2,000 checks? not even close. president trump apparently has an oversized impression of how much money we spend on foreign aid because our annual foreign aid spending doesn't even equal 10% of the cost of a one-time $2,000 payment to low and middle-income citizens. there's also some speculation that senator mcconnell is going to join together the $2,000 payments with other much more controversial

but we have to remember that no one of reasons there is this intense partisanship in america is these members of congress are elected from really partisan districts. that's not going to be thing that changes so i hope some of it dissipates i think some of it will but all of is not going to go away right away by any stretch. >>all right. donna crane with san jose state university we appreciate your time with us thanks so much for joining us. >>governor gavin, newsome could face a recall we get our scripts going here. organizers say they have collected more than half the nearly one and a half million petition signatures that are needed to get the thing going state records show just under 300,000 signatures have been filed but organiners say another 500,000 are in the pipeline. the recall effort appears to be gaining momentum. after noose was seen dining at the upscale french laundry restaurant, the napa valley while telling the state's residents to stay home. the group effort in the recall started gathering signatures and june and have about 3 more months to hit the required 1.5 million signatures. >>meanw
