this is bipartisan legislation that i previously introduced with senator angus king, and i'm sure we would be happy to work with the administration and you passed this into law in the next hundred days but i will oppose any effort to simply move the data from borrowers on the taxpayers. in conclusion, the plan to conduct rigorous oversight especially on the response of covid-19 and will ask fair but difficult and probing questions on the decisions that you make and the way the agency operates. you would expect that from an oversight committee. i will expect honest, complete and timely answers. i hope you can commit to working with me on that. commissioner, i expect by the end of this hearing that i will be able to support your nomination and i will encourage all of the colleagues on my side to support you as well and to move as expeditiously to have you sworn in as the next secretary of education. i look forward to working with you and i think the chair. >> thank you very much, senator. we will now move to our colleagues and senator blumenthal has joined us today. i will recognize hi

this evening and overnight, still showers coming into eastern scotland, aberdeenshire and angus withturday but into sunday, a search of milder air off the atlantic tries to win through. it will be a messy process, saturday has a lot of sunshine in the east, in the west, cloud developing and at that front put it in we could see heavy and disruptive snow in northern ireland and later in northern wales, the isle of man and western scotland. temperatures struggling to get above freezing again with the added wind—chill. saturday night into sunday, that front fizzles out and does not produce much snow but still breezy, but it starts to switch to a southerly direction, more fronts pushing in and as we go into sunday, it is rain rather than snow but to give in with it could fall on the cold ground, icy surface as possible and it will turn back to more general rain, temperatures are rising related to 10 degrees in the west by the end of the day but with the milder air and the return of rain, snow melt, there could be flooding next week in the east. we will keep you updated. this is bbc news.

and it is exactly what we want to ask our next guest, senator angus king who joins us.rs now about your unending optimism that some of your friends on the other side of the aisle might be capable of receiving a fact. and the last time we went around and around this question is around the last impeachment, whereby the end the facts weren't in question, and the republicans were so fearful of the fact pattern that they didn't want john bolton to open his mouth. they refused to hear him as a witness. the facts once again are not in question. and all the video evidence presented today makes clear that violence was how trump rolled. he liked it. he cheered it on, and he inspired it. so far as to inspire what we learned from today's video testimony was an assassination attempt on his own vice president and the speaker of the house. ask this to every guest, where do we go from here if the republicans have no interest in holding the person who incited those assassination attempts accountable? >> well, nicolle, perhaps i've become a bit more cynical since the last time you and i

moment, to lower levels across caithness and sutherland, rain falling across parts of aberdeenshire, angus to recent days. showers in northern ireland as well, the reigning north—east england today could be piling on across the same areas which could cause some flooding. the rest of england is a murky start, a few showers through the next few hours in west wales and parts of cornel and the isles of scilly. they will push across the west of england. through the day, showers in northern ireland, rain in the north—east and snow in lower levels of scotland. temperatures will continue to drop. 0nce of scotland. temperatures will continue to drop. once we have lost the morning murk, driest and brightest in the south—east. showers affecting england and wales especially tonight, snow having more of an impact across eastern parts of scotland. feeling cold and then this weekend, the main snow risk is likely to be across the eastern half of the country, and we will have to watch on sunday particularly in east anglia, we could see some disruption. all the details through the morning. lots of us are go

i'd also like to underscore a few things that were said along the way by angus king about some of the deterrents objectives of the cyber solarium commission. he and mike gallagher from wisconsin have invested tons of time. i was a commissioner, but they co-chaired it. there is a whole bunch of work to be done about breach notify kagts that they have been taking on. mr. mandia, i know you answered it multiple times, but your summary five minutes ago about the need for a central single repository i think was very compelling so thank you for that. mr. smith, when i came back from voting, i think i heard you say that you thought that there were 1,000 highly trained engineers involved in planning this attack. did i hear you right? >> that is our best estimate, yes. >> you can give us a level set of other a level set of other attacks or espionage attacks in the past, say the ccp opm hack. do we have any figure in how many people would have been involved in that? >> i don't, but you certainly didn't need an engineering group of similar magnitude to steal data. you really needed to think abou

since its inception in 1838 there is angu expectation to make up for purchasing power. twenty-two different times they have increased it. in this 11 year. the longest period since its inception we have not adjusted the minimumts wage. so frankly the comments from folks on the other side of the aisle not only do they think $7.25 is the perfect minimum wage but to a logical conclusion we wouldn't have one at all we can expand the number of jobs if we just pay them two dollars an hour or $1.50 we can expand the number of jobs if you listen to their argument i find it astonishing the notion that here we are in 2021 if you work 40 hours a week for 52 weeks a year you would earn $15080 i don't know what that would pay for in the modern world you would have to make decisions between eating or paying rent getting health care for your family or paying for education. it isg not enough. in fact in order to meet the most of our needs would have to be double what it, is. the big decision between america and the friends on the other side of the aisle, we want to use what people say a
