larry bartlett is director of refugee assistance programs at the state department. he acknowledges that it's a tough transition for afghans. >> it's a program that allows people to arrive, but then expects them to become self- sufficient, economically. >> reporter: and do so quickly. with the surge in processing of visas for afghans, and the greater numbers of refugees fleeing violence in the world resources are stretched. >> there's a bit of a tension because the federal funding for this program is limited, and the needs of the population, as the needs of refugees who are recently resettled here, are perhaps greater than the federal funding can allow. >> reporter: bartlett says there is no talk of extending additional benefits to afghan interpreters. though, as hard as it is initially many afghans are succeeding in the u.s. such as shinwari, zeller's former interpreter. he struggled initially, but he says he happy with his life in america. >> i like it, nice place, and the important thing we, we are secure, we don't have to be living in fear like we did in afghanis

"america tonight" spoke with larry bartlett. director of the office of refugee admissions at the state department. >> there are instances where people had difficulty adjusting and felt so abandoned that they made the choice to go back to afghanistan, and one case we know of that led to death. >> it's a tragedy, one that we don't like to hear about. we know for afghans did iraqis people have returned making the dransition to the u.s. is not easy. these are people that served underexceptional circumstances. many did what amounts to multiple tours of combat duty. are they entitled to something else, are they entitled to be treated as veterans. >> congress when they legislated the programme decided they were entitled to come to the united states to receive benefits and an opportunity to be safe, and number two create a life for themselves and their families. each of the former translators has a binder full of accommodations and letters. it's these recommendations that should help the refugees get jobs. the reality, says the translat

makes millions selling similar fakes degrees from lots of schools with familiar sounding names like bartlettb anna and mount lincoln. the new york times report explains's any employer checking out the schools on the internet will see hundreds of schools was smiling professors on american campuses. in reality the professors are paid actors and the universities exist only as photos on computers. but the phony degrees worked gal says hundreds of federal workers that their jobs by showing phony degrees and most are never caught. one man bought a degree in nuclear engineering and get a job in a job in the control room of the nuclear plan. he has since retired. now he is a state senator in new hampshire. i say this i say this just to remind you graduates that your degree may be about as valuable as this phony degree which costs a lot less. college can be fun, and i am sure you will learn some things. unless you studied physics or engineering considering your degree something you must have or ticket to career is a mistake. and that is probably why college is no longer invite me to be there commence

this is the rare scholarly paper that has stirred a media frenzy maybe because bartlett works in the administrations of president reagan and george h.w. bush and he's joining me on the set in washington. thanks for being here. >> happy to be here. >> let me read one line that stood out to me and a lot of other people. you said it can almost be called self-brainwashing. many conservatives now refuse to even listen to any news or pb not vetted through fox and to believe whatever appears on it as the gospel truth. self brainwashing. >> i don't think that word is too strong. i think many conservatives live in a bubble where they watch only fox news on television they listen only to conservative talk radio, rush limbaugh sean hannity, many of the same people. when they go on to the internet they look at only conservative websites like national review news max, world net daily, and so they are completely in a universe in which they are hearing the same exact ideas, the same arguments, the same limited amount of data repeated over and over and over again, and that's brainwashing. >> do you

three years we have worked together as well as our predecessors going back to gene taylor and roscoe bartlett who started this conversation. mr. speaker, when president obama signed the start treaty after ratification by the u.s. senate, one thing became crystal clear, the strasteegic mission became more critical than ever the implementation of the nuclear arsenal will rest more heavily on ballistic submarines. 2/3 of the try add in the post new start aira will be sea-based and every secretary identified construction of the ohio replacement program if not the number one defense priority of the country. let's be clear, the ohio program will be built. that's not in debate. the question for congress is we will let this cost suffocate the rest of the navy ship building account. the sea power report in the underlying bill provides a solution to this problem, which will provide help both for our fleet and the industrial base. the underlying bill activates the fund passed last year on a bipartisan and bicameral basis to design the ohio replacement program as a responsible way. sponsors of this amend

i have, to sit at the desk used by dewey bartlett and edward norr. in the 1930's, will rogers said congress is so strange. a man gets up to speak and says nothing, nobody listens and then everybody disagrees. this is my first official moment to join the ranks of those who step up to speak but i want to speak about a few things that i consider essential to the work ahead for all of us. what i call the three d's i talk about all the time. debt defense and directives. let me take those in reverse order. the directives. people ask me all the time what do oklahomans want from their federal government? the answer is simple, they want to be left alone. they do not want someone telling them what to do and how to run their lives. it's not the people in oklahoma are antigovernment, far from it. we have a strong patriotism that drives us to serve our nation and honor those who give their lives to public service. 20 years ago oklahoma and the nation was devastated by a truck bomb in oklahoma city federal building killing 168 people most of those federal employee
