at texas tech university. >> i spent about a half an hour in the house and i was talking with bill, mr. holder. and i said to him, turned to him and said, "bill, i don't feel very good." i said, "i got to get out of here." and just literally walked out the front door and pretty much collapsed. i lost any ability to stand without aid. >> the samples were processed at texas tech health sciences center. technicians there sterilized the slides, then examined them under a high-powered microscope. the cotton swab samples were transferred to petri dishes, then put in an incubator for five to seven days. if there were spores present, they would grow mold which could be examined under the microscope. most household molds are harmless. but dr. strauss found one type of mold in the home that was not harmless. it was a toxic, deadly mold known as stachybotrys. experts believed stachybotrys spores exist on many building materials. as long as those materials stay dry, the spores don't present a problem. but when the spores get wet, from a leaky roof, for example, or in a dark moist environment, and are near

bill: the characterization of where we are in this battle was addressed by eric holder. already this morning i'll have a clarification on that. i'll play you what he said. >> you don't use an extreme example. in world war ii if a reporter found out about the existence of the manhattan project, is that something that should have been disclosed? we are in a time of war and it's an extreme example. bill: we are not at a time of war. this tweet from the public affairs office for eric holder. he meant akin to world war ii, he absolutely does think we are at war with isil. >> anybody can misspeak, i have misspoken in my life. i think wait shows to me is the knee jerk reaction of this administration of eric holder and the president himself to not want to be in war, to deny that isis is growing and deny extremism is exploding deny europe is falling apart under the hands of the russians. obama came into office want time of peace and he can't accept the fact that was not the world given to him. because he's not accepting that we are seeing a world dropping chaos. eric holder can f

so, unfortunately for president obama, attorney general eric holder and bill deplaz yoerk the mayor of new york, just to take those three examples because of what happened the last six months with ferguson and the other situation here with the cop in staten island that was not indicted after that -- >> eric garner. >> um, you have in james comey a very non-political fbi director. and just -- just so happens sometimes you get the right leader at the right time for the organization that needs it and i think that that is true for him not just on this issue but recently on cyber security and cyber terrorism. he has been a voice on that we have actually delayed this clip several times from his "60 minutes" interview. also able to talk about the root causes in a way that was not polarizing at all, it didn't offend anyone to hear somebody say -- to talk about school choice. on the free community college thing, i do think there is unfortunately this idea that government needs to grow in order to help some of these problems. the truth is there is already an apit for children that qualify for pe

that's when president obama, attorney general holder, new york mayor bill de blasio reverend al sharpton declaring michael brown and eric garner victims of bigotry and said such bias is pervasive in our law enforcement agencies and our society. holder and obama criticize for intervening in ferguson for prejudging the investigation of the michael brown shooting and having to if not recant, withdraw. yesterday holder insisted he and the president played important, not negative but positive roles in allaying the frustration of the minority community. >> if the attorney general of the united states had gone out there, then if things had not changed or things had gone the worse, that would have been seen as not only a personal failure or on my part, a failure by the obama administration. but the president ultimately decided it was worth the risk, that he thought that i had a certain credibility, the administration had a certain credibility, and if we did it right, we could have a positive impact. i think that was actually what was borne out. you know all things were not cured, but i think we

. >> reporter: now comey's efforts are after some weighed in the territory including eric holder and billd spoke during the midst of police controversy and highly criticized and not seen that reaction to the speech today by the fbi director and unprecedented speech by fbi director. >> thank you. let's take a deep look with the l.a. counsel member with parks also the l.a. chief from 1997-2002 and chief of the rodney king incident so great to have you on the program. >> thank you for the invitation. >> you heard what the fbi director had to say, is in the real talk we need from the fbi director? >> well i think it's the real talk that goes on in the community on a daily basis. i think what we have to figure out is how do you capture that theme in real life productive conversation and solutions and not wait for the next tragic incident where feelings are inflamed and people's views already in concrete. this is a process on a daily basis of police working with the community, communicating with the community, being there for the community and basically building up good will daily, not waiting

i don't know if the billing inspection does or if the permit holder may have it. >> i have a copy. >> so, it sounds like the permit holder's contract has that, but my assumption is that complies with the looms matrix with accessory ground floor rooms. >> although this is similar to the prior case we heard it is different in the fact that there are legal permitted, permitted rooms down, so the only thing that would be no. permitted or non-warranted would be the kitchen area, correct? >> that would be correct, that's my understanding, i don't know if f that kitchen area was formerly a garage or non-habitable space. >> it depends on what it was, one side is saying kitchen one side is saying it was a counter top with a sink, like a wet bar. >> which the room allows for. >> and that's primarily the difference is if there is rooms down, then it would just be the fact of removing the kitchen and installing back the wet bar, right? >> correct, and in terpser of legalizing, i can't speak for building department, but my assumption is it would be somewhat more straightforward to legalize the sec

when other top law enforcement officials, which would be attorney general eric holder as well as even new york's mayor billio. when they've spoken out on this tension, on these issues they've been harshly criticized for being unfairly critical of police. then you hear from police saying law enforcement is not the root cause of the problems. do you think this maybe is an effort to balance what has seemed to be an imbalanced take by some? >> it is because the take that the people are taking in terms of the criticism to the mayor of new york and to attorney general holder and even our president, president obama, the critics are taking it from a political perspective. now you have the top cop who knows law enforcement inside and out and they in effect set the standard for law enforcement application, training and practices, policies and procedures. who is going to contradict this particular individual? it would be interesting to see going forward who, in fact will try to come forward to contradict the top cop in our nation. >> excellent point. also you say after all of these speeches words into action a lot of

we've heard critiques from attorney general eric holder from new york mayor bill de blasio, so what'sor me not much. there is a judge and he says people should not get credit for doing their jobs. part of his job is recognize his community, the people he serves and the reality. you shouldn't give him so much credit. just because you make a speech doesn't change what's actually happening in those communities. that needs to be implemented. >> okay. so speaking of implemented and solutions, i want to play sound of one of the solutions comey proposed in his speech and get you to respond. >> let me be transparent about my affection for cops. when you dial 911, whether you are white or black, the cops come. and they come quickly. and they come quickly, whether they are white or black. that's what cops do. >> so that was -- we were really looking for sound of my brother's keeper. he says in his speech and i want to get you to respond. the truth what really needs fixing is something only a few like president obama are willing to speak about through the my brother's keeper initiative the presi

saudi arabia is one of the largest holders of u.s. t billsthey have a pile of cash to be able to ride through for several years. i think alvin's question had to do with the u.s. energy and saudi arabia energy. if you look at the u.s. economy, there has been a condition tonight focus over the last six or seven years to expand u.s. energy so that we are energy independent, some would say, actually inter depend event. in reality, we import a very small fraction of our oil from saudi arabia. so, the relationship with saudi arabia has very little to do with oil that we receive from the kingdom. it is also frewtrue that a large portion of the oil goes to alneys europe and asia comes from saudi air i can't. it's very important we are in a position to protect those lines of communication that allow for the free access of global energy. i think, though that the advancement in our own energy infrastructure in this country is very, very important in terms of the global energy market because for decades, opec defined the price of oil for decades. on the

holders together. power companies, and i think we got it right. we balanced the regular. there was a lot of people who were concerned because we had the coal ash billn the dan river that we would just overreach and i refused to let that happen. i said we want to use the same frame work that we've told the regulators in north carolina that they have to follow for us to solve the problem, but not just all of a sudden run based primarily on emotions and maybe the attention we were getting from a special interest group. i believe that regulatory policy will be adopted by other states. >> another question rights here? >> senator, i was curious about your views on transparencies. i represent the ship recycling industry. we asked the government for documents and the government said no. we went back and said but you told us to -- them. i guess the question is -- we're scratching our head and saying it doesn't make any sense. what can be done to improve the situation regarding transparencies of other documents for the business industry. >> i think we have to do a lot. we also have to be mindful that there are people out there who abuse these requests as wel

bill de blasio had to say, he talked about the systemic problems that take place within low income communities. and those being the precursor to the tensions between police and civilians. the issue, though is eric holderienced negative relationships with police when he was a prosecutor getting out of a nice car and going to a movie. i think what a lot of officers don't understand is that perfectly legitimate and law abiding black and brown citizens encounter police in what should be nonthreatening situations and are treated precisely the same way as if they were a suspect. so if you have a community like ferguson, which is a middle class community, ferguson was not, you know in a challenged inner city environment. this was a middle class community where people get stopped every day, so the fees collected from ordinary law abiding black citizens -- i think one of the things police will have to get to, it's one thing to have an abstract conversation about history, and i commend him for do that. it was brave. but when bill de blasio talks about the lived experience of his own child, he gets -- the police officers turn their backs on him, because how dare he talk about his actual lived experience experien

holders and small i.t. users? another extraordinary thing i see in this bill is that the court hating majority in this bill falls in love with the judiciary by inviting litigation before the rule is final. the courts will just love that. if we want to do so why do so with a bill that on top of everything else adds $18 million over 10 years -- the chair: the gentlelady's time has expired. ms. norton: another minute? the chair: the gentlelady is recognized for 30 seconds. ms. norton: $18 million that this majority certainly will not appropriate. small business is and always has been a bipartisan concern. we have many more of them in our districts than we have large business. that's not who will come to consult. it is the global multinationals who are applauding this bill as we speak. i thank the gentleman for yielding. the chair: the gentlelady yields back her time. the gentleman from maryland reserves. the gentleman from utah is recognized. mr. chaffetz: mr. chairman, i would like to point to the bill because it keeps getting repeated on this floor it doesn't include the public. it doesn't include individuals. that'

legislature when they were considering this bill, we would support a federal study to try to find out whether this technology can be made to work the way the patent holdert do that now. and even if it did, i don't know that this would actually help law enforcement very much because the average gun that's traced being used in crime was originally sold at retail over 11 years prior to the gun being used in a crime. so you're talking about almost 12 years before you get any useful information. so it's really not going to assist law enforcement and most guns used are stolen anyway. >> it's a huge assault on constitutional rights. >> there is a lawsuit in federal court to declare it unconstitutional and there is a state court action to declare the law invalid because it can't be complied with. >> larry, we want to thank you for being with us today. >> thank you for having me. >>> now this coming up nfl star collin kaepernick attacking a fan on twitter saying this you got eight followers, bro. your own family don't even want to know what you're doing. but this morning that fan is getting the last laugh. we're going to tell but it. former new york city mayor r
