opinion it's no turning that for the period i read enough making demands for a particular policy so breyer will no longer do this point the question is how is it that the vatican is going to deal with greitens and you know they're very particular to the months which is essentially they need to produce policy all right so they need to take action and someone else who's calling for that was ireland's prime minister who spoke earlier let's listen to a clip of that. holy father we ask that you use your office and influence to ensure that this is done here in our land and also around the world. in recent weeks we've all this into the heartbreaking stories from pennsylvania of the unspeakable crimes perpetrated by people within the church and then obscure it to protect the institution. it's a story that was all too tragically familiar to those of us here in ireland. as you said there can only be zero tolerance for those who abuse children are facilitate that abuse. and he was now ensure that from words flow actions. all right so that was the prime minister of ireland saying is there a tolerance

your proposal in an the army and the navy would say yes or no and if they said yes it came out and breyer experiments out here and they would set the rocket up for you and get ready to go on fire the rocket. you would collect your data, publisher data, that kind of thing. wereber of things that done out here, the first video and photography that showed the curve of the earth from space was done from a v2 at white sands and there were a series of shots in 1947 they use rhesus monkeys. that showed that these small animals could survive the thrust endedocket liftoff apogee, when the rocket or anything in the rocket becomes weightless, the heart rate and the respiration were good. were critical because after the german rocket team members left, that data was used by the german rocket team, especially number on when he started talking to people about this organization, civilian organization put people into space. it's not just the military applications that are crucial out here. there's been done out here as well. -- a lot of good science done out here as well. we want people to take away the

in 1994, president clinton nominated justice breyer to the supreme court. at that time, president clinton was under investigation by independent counsel robert fiske in connection with the whitewater land deal. indeed, president clinton's own records were under grand jury subpoena. yet, the senate confirmed justice breyer by a vote of 87-9 during all of that. in fact, president clinton was under investigation for much of his presidency and was even impeached for committing perjury. obviously he wasn't convicted, but through all this, the senate didn't stop confirming his lifetime appointments to the bench. president trump is not even close to being in the same legal situation as president clinton, but obviously some people around here think he is. so my colleagues' plea to delay the hearing rings very false considering the precedent i just gave, and maybe historians can give you more precedent. so i want to tell you why. liberal outside groups and senate democratic leaders decided to oppose the president's supreme court nominee by any means necessary. they

during the clinton situation you had stephen breyer come up and he went right through in the process. it wasn't used as a bargaining chip. why use it as one now? >> because this particular nominee has an unusually expansive view of executive power. he was selected by donald trump because donald trump picks people who are going to help him. they went through his entire record, and they know that this particular nominee believes that presidents should be above the law, immune from prosecution, immune from subpoenas. he even went so far as to say the unanimous supreme court decision that called for the release of the watergate tapes shouldn't have come down that way. so this particular nominee was selected by donald trump because donald trump knew the mueller investigation was coming. this nominee does not like independent counsels. so you've got to look at all of it in that context, that he was picked out by trump for the purpose of protecting himself because he knew that a mueller potential case was going to come to the supreme court. >> steve cortes, i'm short on time but in the inter
