thomas jefferson and ben franklin pulling up the rear with four times. it seems to me that ben franklin and thomas jefferson need a little bit more love. so let me try to do my part. thomas jefferson once observed that tierney is defined as that which is legal for the government, but illegal for the citizenry. legal for the government, but illegal for the citizenry. that's what we confront right now. president trump corruptly abused his power and he targeted an american citizen, pressured a foreign government, to try to cheat in the upcoming election. the president's council would have you believe that is okay. because he's the president of the united states. but our citizens cannot cheat, the worker's compensation board by claiming a fake injury and escape accountability. >> all right, another few hours of this questioning. and the final debate tomorrow, and a vote whether we have witnesses or not, coming up. we will continue monitoring th this, and that will certainly be from iowa, tomorrow on fox business and fox news and saturday we are allies of cou

they managed to get it out but ben franklin was in favor of term limits. >> amazing. dan, it's been a wide-ranging discussion. i know it's taken us beyond your particular proposals but wearing your constitutional observer at , you said if we had an article 5 convention would want to consider other proposals to reduce polarization and rethink the way we select to bring court justices. what made some of those be and do you think that they might pass? >> there's two questions, one is who should be on the supreme court and the other is what should the supreme court be doing? how much power should the supreme court have and should the supreme court be exercising sort of a general veto over all sort of legislation which they do because it turns out and justices on both sides of the ideological divide are responsible, you can make a plausible constitutional argument that any form of legislation violates something in the constitution. it doesn't have to be written down. shelby county voting rights act section 4 was unconstitutional because of the principle of equal sovereignt

as ben franklin departed the constitutional meeting, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy. he responded simply: "a republic if you can keep it." a fair trial, impartial consideration of all of the evidence against the president, is how we keep our republic. that concludes our introduction. >> the majority leader is recognized. >> colleagues, i suggest we have a recess until 10 minutes to 4:00, at which moment we'll reconvene so we can call the chair. >> without objection, so ordered. >> a e we had . >>> and there we had the first session of the house democrats as they begin to make their case for president trump's removal from office. these were the beginning days of the opening remarks and chairman of the intelligence committee mr. schiff went on for two hours and 20 minutes in his presentation. the detail he wanted to lay out a narrative, a factual chronology that would go into extensive detail about what happened when and how complete with 39 different graphics and sound bites to lay out this case by the democrats. i want to bring in our panel here. panel here. leslie st

once counted my ancestors as 3/5 of a man, and i take that oath of office in front of rait of ben franklin, sworn in by a jewish woman-- supreme court justice ruth bader ginsberg, who was my neighbor at the watergate and i thought, "you know, what would old ben think of this?" right, because in some ways, it showed how far our y had come, and i always felt when i was out there that i could speak about the hard road to dem, about the importance of institutions ovcoming more inclusive time to people who were having those challenges because i personally experienced them. rubenstein: let's talk about today's situation. we fe a north korean problem. you negotiated with the north koreans. rice: i did. rubenstein: what would you say is the chances that north korea and the united states and south korea can come to some agreement? rice: well, i have to say, when the president-- i first heard that the preptdent had on the spot ac kim jong-un's invitation, i thought, "oh, my goodness, what was he doing?" and then i thought, "you know, "nothing else has worked, so why not? why not give it a try?" and

at the time george washington was probably the most famous living american at the time, he and ben franklin. was she ever? in any danger during the revolution you would think -- what she ever in any danger during the revolution? you would think the british might collect his mother. guest: they didn't engage in things like that. i'm not sure how well known that she was not a supporter of the revolution. obviously he knew, but he was preoccupied with this ragtag -- britishg to victory after british victory, and that is washington's genius, he kept the army together going from battle to battle. losing many and winning a few, but winning a few important ones. guest: was there contact -- host: was there contact between then general washington and his mother during the revolution? guest: no. he wrote many letters to martha and she wrote many letters to him, but virtually no communication between george and mary during the seven years of the american revolution. host: why do you think that was? is it simply because he was too busy? guest: i don't think there was anything -- host: maybe a rip in th

he and ben franklin the two most famous. was she ever in any danger during the revolution? you would think as the most famous american, the british might have sent someone to collect his mother. >> guest: they didn't engage in things like that, and i am not sure how widely well known she was not a supporter of the revolution. obviously he knew but she was too busy -- to preoccupied with the rag tag army over seven years trying to evade british victory after -- victory and that's washington's genius, keep the army together going from battle to battle. losing many and winning a few but winning a few important ones. >> host: was there any contact between then general washington and his mother during the revolution. >> guest: no. he wrote many hers to mart that but no communication between george and mary during the seven years of the american revolution. >> host: why do you think that was? abuse he is too busy -- to. >> guest: i don't think anything nefarious. >> host: was there a rift. >> guest: i don't think -- nothing emerged to suggest that. not any contemporaneous letters

jefferson and the committee of five who were tasked with drafting the declaration which included ben franklin, john adams, roger sherman and robert livingston. so the we means the committee of five. but it also means the 56 members of the continental congress. and then on top of the 56 members of the continental congress it also means the american people, the declaration of independence is speaking on behalf of we the people. we the people of the united states of america. we hold these truths. but there's a problem. what does it mean to say we hold these truths to be self-evident? some of these truths are pretty complex philosophic concepts as we'll see in a minute. and did -- did all americans come to see these truths all at the same time? surely there's a difference in intellectual capacity, for instance, between say thomas jefferson or john adams on the one hand and an uneducated hardscrabble farmer living on the western frontier of massachusetts. well, i think then the key word to unlock the meaning of self-evident truths is the word "hold." we hold these truths. well, what i think that m

younger sister , who was inof ruby the first photograph sitting across the intersection on franklin street. to ben ruby would go out in the marches and things, her mother would tell them not to go out. their mothers name was mama cat. mama cat was amazing. she would tell them not to go out. she said a soonish you would leave to go to work ruby would go. not only would ruby go, but she would take her younger brother and sister. the is another story of how youth were very much a part of the civil rights movement. this photo we are looking at now took place on franklin street. it was a group of students doing a sit in. i remember when i was doing a workshop, and this particular photograph was on a powerpoint presentation and we were talking to a group of fourth graders. they did not know what a sit in was and what was happening. but as we were showing this, one of the students that's up and says, that's my grandmother. we are all like, where? he points to the young lady sitting right next to the police officer. we were all amazed. he was so proud that day. the teacher was proud, we were all proud. i

thomas jefferson and ben franklin pulling up the rear, four times.nklin and thomas jefferson need a little bit more love. and so let me try do my part. thomas jefferson once observed that tyranny is defined as that which is legal the government but illegal for the citizenry. legal for the government, but illegal for the citizenry. that's what we confront right now. president trump corruptly abused his power. he targeted an american citizen, pressured a foreign government to try to cheat in the upcoming election. and the president's counsel would have you believe that is okay. because he's the president of the united states. but our fellow citizens cannot cheat. the workers compensation board by claiming a fake injury and escape accountability. our fellow citizens cannot cheat the stock market by engaging in insider trading, and then escape accountability. our fellow citizens cannot cheat the college admissions process in order to get their child into an elite university, and then escape accountability. why should the president of the united states be

we have a lot of ben franklin, a lot of tom payne.he church in boston during the american revolution and the constitutional convention, who jerry nadler name checked, i give jerry nadler's staff a lot of credit for disinterring this guy because he's one of the unfound founders. and the quote he used was, without the prospect of impeachment, who will -- i'm paraphrasing now because i can't read my own handwriting, but basically, without impeachment, anybody will dare anything. it was a reminder -- i'll tell you, there was a kind of melon kcolonel -- melancholy in the chamber the whole time because all these citations from history, at flawed as most of those people were, as edward r. murrow said in his broadcast against joe mccarthy, we are not descent descended from fearful people. this is a measuring stick for how far away from the founding fathers we've got to be. >> let me also name check frederick douglass. >> i didn't want to mention him because he's still doing such great work. >> he said we need to fix our country's system so we

it seems to me that ben franklin and thomas jefferson need a little bit more love. so let me try to do my part. thomas jefferson, once observed that tyranny, is defined as that of which is legal for the government. but illegal for the citizens. legal for the government, but illegal for the citizens. this will we confront right now. president trump correctly abuses his power any targeted an american citizen. pressure to form government, to try to cheat in the upcoming election. the president's counsel would have you believe that is okay. because he is the president of the united states. but our fellow citizens can not teach. they can not claim a fake injury, and escape accountability. our fellow citizens can not take the stock market by engaging in insider trading. as an escape for accountability. our fellow citizens can not cheat the college admissions process, in order to get their child into an elite university and escape accountability. why should the president of the united states be allowed to cheat. in the upcoming election and escape accountability. . . . . .

i looked at your notes there's a ben franklin close you do the benefits and the things that aren't benefits reasons why this was a bad move to kill soleimani you couldn't come up with a single reason whether he orchestrated an attack on the u.s. embassy, which is american territory. whether he killed 600 americans and maimed 600 americans whether he killed thousands of people and we finally have a chance when he's ramping things up and still fomenting terrorism, he was called a terrorist by the obama administration he was designated a terrorist. >> absolutely. >> just keep saying why now, why now, why now, without coming up with a single positive that could result from this seems to me that we've taken partisan rank or even to killing a terrorist you can't say it's a good thing because trump is a bad guy. >> you didn't ask me that question you said are there positives to taking out soleimani, i would say absolutely there are he was a master mind he had a great deal of charisma, the president said he has blood on his hands, particularly of americans in iraq during the iraq struggle. and that

if we care about our constitution it is so clear, so many times in so many ways whether it was ben franklinas a tool that is political, impeachment is a very serious issue and we know that it was so serious that the founding fathers really debated and discussed how and what they should put in there because they never wanted to use it as a political tool, now we are getting to set up a precedent where each time we don't like a president or a president does something that we don't care for, we are going to use impeachment, that will destroy the republic, it's not good and their points were well made, we have to move on, my god, this has gone on for years now, it's cost millions of dollars, it's cost so much time, so much good work we could have gotten done that we haven't gotten done, i feel like there's a lot of americans that just feel like saying, stop. brian: congressman, i understand that chris christie as well as the president talked to you and helped you make the move but you also have a voting record which is a lot -- you opposed to the president a lot. are you going to stop opposing

ben franklin signed the declaration of independence at age 70. grandma moses started painting at age 76. we should never, ever put an age limit on our dreams or the ability to make a living. but here's the thing, mr. speaker, you can be a dedicated employee and having spent decades building a career that you are proud of, taking care of your family, putting your kids through college, saving for your future, and needing and wanting to work and then one day when you're ready, retire with dignity, and then out of nowhere, your life is shattered, your bosses say you are fired. they list their reasons, however you know the truth. you have been let go to make way for a younger employee, and now you are without a salary, without your health insurance, and you know your odds of getting a new job are slim when you are competing with 20-year-old and 30-year-olds who are willing to work for lower wages and fewer benefits. for too many seniors, mr. speaker, this is a reality. nearly three in five workers have experienced age-based discrimination. not only un

as ben franklin once said, teach me and i may remember. embold me, and i will learn. interviewership can be one of the best options for gainful employment and score with more than 300 chapters across the country and the nation's largest network of expert business meantors uniquely positioned to teach and provide this business vice those re-entering society. i urge members to support this bipartisan piece of legislation and i reserve. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady reserves. the gentleman from ohio is recognized. mr. chabot: i yield myself such time as i may consume. rise in support the prison to proprietorship act. as our committee heard last fall, up to 60% of people released from prison will remain unemployed after a year. it's not surprising then that half of all former inmates commit another crime after they have been another crime. this is not good for them and certainly not good for society. we want these former prisoners to be constructive members of our communities. small business ownership can provide steady employment to nonviolent individuals, whic

. >> and if you strip away the thomas payne and the ben franklin and the alexander hamilton, i was struckgs. one, schiff, chairman schiff very forcefully saying that the reason president trump needs to be removed from office is because he will cheat to get reelected, simply put. and then the other thing that struck me was how much was of the case that schiff presented was merely running videotape of trump and his administration officials saying things that are quite damning, whether it was then candidate trump calling for the russians to hack into hillary clinton's e-mails or president trump talking about how ukraine and china should launch investigation sbo into t bidens, the acting white house chief of staff acknowledging a quid pro quo, gordon sondland one of the ambassadors who's part of the scandal acknowledging a quid pro quo, and on and on. it was just a very factually based argument, very long, two and a half hours, but really it didn't leave much to the imagination. i'd really like to hear what george conway has to think about this presentation. >> well, i agree it was a remarkab

on the second subject, ben famously said that an investment in education is always the best investment. administration,s mr. franklin might not say that because young people who are to uraged to get degrees, get undergraduate degrees and graduate degrees to be part of a knowledge-based economy, to take access to the best educational in higher he world education in this country would end having them in debt and with a degree that's worthless in the open marketplace. i would think that all members to ongress would want protect both aging workers and defrauded.o are mr. speaker, as you can see, we are on the floor this week to to those that need our help. struggling students and workers our support. not for us to turn our backs on them. urge a yes vote on the rule and the previous question and i yield back the balance of my the previous e question on the resolution. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from california yields back the balance of his time. is on the ordering of the previous question on the resolution. aye. in favor say those opposed, no. in the opinion of the chair, the ayes have it. mr. burgess: mr. s
