who knew hemingway would be a great author? who knew fitzgerald would be a great author? so don't know who's going to be a great author but the best way is to keep writing and writing and writing. with respect investing, for the average person the most important thing to do is not lose what you have. secondly, the best we do not lose what you have this to go into an index fund of some type. go into a low fee index fund, equity and fixed income and that's probably the safest thing to do. >> host: david rubenstein did you think about buying simon & schuster? >> guest: i look at it but i couldn't c interest my partnersn it, so another from did it. >> host: as always we appreciate your time on booktv. >> guest: thank you very much. my pleasure. >> next more from the 2023 library of congress national book festival. >> my name

of the palestinian authority, but also to merge any chance in the future, the palestinian authority may well be managed to a state control there. now, how did we get to this terrible war that started only four days ago, will last for a long time, as i assume? we actually knew about the hamas strategy. hamas all the time talks about the great military campaign that will lead to the defeat of israel. we also speculated what it would be, the campaign. we said it would be multi-dimension, through the land, sea, air. rockets, raids, kidnappings. and a multi-palestinian arena. hamas talks about it all the time. the gaza strip, north border, and others will unify and defeat israel. according to hamas, the whole campaign was actually prepared to create a condition in order to establish an islamic state between the river and the sea. over the years, there was wishful thinking, illusion -- i don't know how to talk about it -- but there was a thought that maybe hamas had become in the gaza strip gradually more moderate. the implication to the civilian aspect would be much bigger than to the re

this type of authorization that congressman mccaul is talking about would authorize the president to take military action against actors in the middle east. the president might argue he can do that without congressional authorization. typically presidents say they don't need congressional authorization. as commander in chief they always have the power to take military action to protect the united states and its interests, but when congress passes an authorization for use of military force, it empowers the president and certainly suggests that congress is behind the president with regard to the possibility of using military force. it wouldn't require the president to use military force, but it would say the president can use military force if the president deems it's necessary. host: you mentioned him, here is representative michael mccaul, chair of the foreign affairs committee. from last week talking about the impact of not having a speaker on national security. mr. mccaul: we are living in a dangerous world. the world's on fire. our adversaries are watching what we do. and quite fr

mayor breed to the housing authority.a zhou and to the president of that body, joaquin torres to the head of the mayor's office of housing, eric shaw. this has been a priority of this community and this supervisor for many, many years and it is important every once in a while to take a moment and acknowledge that we did something right and we got something done and we worked together and this is that moment the mayor thanked and appropriately so, many of the individuals and institutions, including the united states government tonight that helped bring this. so far. but we also need to acknowledge that a light was shined on this and that light was shined by the media. and i want to actually thank and acknowledge judge han lee for the stories that he did in february of this year that made the case for what a super visor and a mayor? no no, a single resident occupancy room is a small room that it is adequate housing. for one person. but absolutely inadequate for a family with children. and when han wrote that story and the m

>> good afternoon, housing authority board. my name is mr. dennis williams, i'm a sub chair of the filmore merchants collaborative. i'm a real estate developer and a community leader. excuse me, plaza east where i'm also a resident, envious after assessing plaza east repairs, i stated in public records, asked the board of supervisors for a whopping 42 million dollars to complete the repairs of plaza east as they seem fit. the board of businesses only awarded nbs2.7 million dollars so. when you're up here congratulating i'm a resident of plaza east. that we had to wait two years to go through. there is floors that are buckling or sometimes have holes in them. there is no major construction being done at plaza east. so california law states if public housing has fallen into disrepair due to the developers neglect, the developers must pay out of their own money and developers if you didn't know. even if that means tearing down and redeveloping said properties. 99 violations and bns has not received any notice using their own money. this hurts sa

it does have authority and accounted for differently. i hope we start rather than focusing on phrases, focus on surveillance censorship fraud all of those and we can just pick them all off i hope. some of itk will require i thik some new laws. especially when it comes to privacy. >> i think there's a role for new laws but also role for enforcing the laws that we have that have some authority but he mentioned fraud and you could do something some fed wire which is usually where your wire transfers happen as opposed to something like that. we have time for one more question and i want to turn to the audience and we will start him with you. the panel before there was a conversation about frequent flyer miles and credit card points in a talked about the private creation of money. last night i'm booking tickets to go see the twins in the playoffs and i'm moving money from my credit card rewards to my frequent flyer to pay fors my daughter's ticket. this is not money somehow. when i buy my ticket with cash, it is money and we saw that news fro

you mentioned -- previous standing of the housing authority. short falls with the h cv program now the surplus and excess funds we have in place. i guess the second question will be, in light of the surpluses and light of the excess can is this know indication of success or is this an indication of the need we have to move more of the resources out on the street so that we don't have the dollars recaptured. thank you. move to public housing. -- public housing was ref nows 2.6 million a major drop from left year a drop of 5.3 million. part was the conversion in fiscal 23. and when we get is we had some units for sunnydale we were getting pid and would not in 2024. when we get for public housing in 20 foris a reposition de feo in the first year mirjt in twe we got 75% in the second year 50%. you will see this come down further in 2025 am in the year 30 we get 25%. so there will be -- a drop down and again we will use this money to pay off the pension liabilities. this we have on the books for public housing. >> all right we are doing the study ar

this is a real deal war authorization cut and pasted from the 2001 authorization use of military force. this measure reproduces many of the pathologies of that war on terror authorization. it would give the president the authority to use appropriate force against a list of named drug trafficking organizations in mexico. also, to add additional groups against whom the president can use force. because this authorization is so broad, the president would have the authority to launch new wars against organizations in mexico potentially even mexico state itself. there is also, right out of the house affairs committee, the project precursor act, which would direct the secretary of state -- fentanyl as a chemical weapon -- to add fentanyl as a chemical weapon. lindsey graham has introduced a measure that would designate drug trafficking organizations as foreign terrorist organizations. there's also measures introduced that would direct the homeland of security to designate fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction. earlier this year biden received a letter from 18 states attorney generals makin

the mint you mentioned does have authority. i hope we start rather thanphobe uses on phrasing, focus on surveillance, censorship, fraud, i hope we can tick them off, some will require, i think new laws. >> i -- i think there is maybe a role for new laws and a role for enforcing the law we have, that have some authority. you mentioned fraud and you could do some things on fed wire. usually where bigger wire transferred happen. one more question then the audience. tim with you. but the panel before there was a lot of conversation about frequent flier miles and credit card points, you talk about private creation of many, last night i'm booking tickets to go see the twins in the play offs, i'm moving money from my credit card rewards to my frequent flyer to pay for my daughter'sot ticket, this is not money somehow, but when i buy my ticket with cash that is money, we saw this news from delta, do we have airlines or financial credit card payment structures that run planes to drive people into their card, where do you see financializ

because this authorization is so broad, the president would have the authority to launch an indeterminate number of wars against organizations in mexico , including mexican state it's self. there is also, in the house, the house foreign affairs committee, the project precursor act. it would direct the secretary of state to add fentanyl as a chemical weapon on the chemical weapons convention. lindsey graham introduced a measure that would designate drug trafficking organizations as a foreign terrorist organizations. there are measures introduced in the house that would direct the secretary of homeland security to designate fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction. earlier this year, president biden received a letter from 18 states attorneys general, making a similar request that it be designated as a weapon of mass destruction. the prospect for any of these measures to actually become law is dim. the administration has shown no interest in signing this into law. the danger in these framings, the danger and measures that cast the war on drugs as an actual war and cast use of military force
