cartwright: thank you. to prevent patient threatening conditions as described in the general counsel's opinion, does the v.a. currently offer testing to its non-veteran employees who are routinely exposed to covid-19 patients? dr. macdonald: we do. employees who are symptomatic or who request a test are able to get one through us or through their outside help insurance should they have that. rep. cartwright: i'm glad you said that. here is why i asked. i'm from northeastern pennsylvania. we have ava medical center there. that testing was not offered in , it wasn't, so far offered in april or so far in may at the wilkes-barre v.a. medical center. employees, including those caring for covid-19 patients, have been required to seek testing elsewhere if they were in veterans themselves, so eligible to register with the medical comprehensive care. here is my question. were either of you aware of that going on at the wilkes-barre v.a.? sec. wilkie: i was not aware what was going on. i will take a look at that. rep

this is roger cartwright, he is 14 years old and goes to the same school. >> there are lots of things we can tell you about them, where they live, their parents, the subjects they like at school, but one thing we don't have to tell you, it is plain as day, they are healthy, sturdy, physically fit. nothing very remarkable about that. for most young people, good health is something to be almost taken for granted. have you ever stopped to think why these young people, like most of us, don't have to worry about their health? why is that so? take this glass of water, for instance. what does it have to do with her health? it is quite simple. when water falls from the sky as rain, it may be fit to drink, but as it runs towards the sea, water may become polluted because industrial wastes are discharged into it, and also the wastes from cities. when a drop of such polluted water as observed under a microscope, it can be seen that the water contains large concentrations of microorganisms which can cause typhoid fever, dysentery, and cholera. such microorganisms muchst be removed before we drink

and full pardon for his favorite general, the rule of law is in jeopardy in other words general cartwright got off scot-free and he set the precedent come obama did. of course the flynn case was never about a processed crime but instead part of what was a larger plot to destroy the incoming president. look at the time line, august 15, 2016, peter strzok compared that to an insurance policy in the unlikely event that donald trump wins the election, september 2nd 2016, his lover lisa page, president obama wants to know everything that we are doing. so that clearly states obama not only approved of the persecution, but he now seems to be orchestrating it and now they are trying to cover their tracks so again, the question tonight, barack what did you know and when did you know it? joe, what did you know and when did you know it because at the time the deep state was doing was corrupt to the core. multiple trump campaign associates and officials who are being wiretapped, despite confidential source of slide to obtain fisa warrants and took away the carter page is, let's see civil liberties, co

"meet the press" respond in writing "the remaining clip included important remarks of the attorney general that we missed and we regret the error." a georgia still needs to sign off on the flynn case

and especially the last two or three administrations, doctor warren, doctor left in and doctor cartwrightts i think have stepped forward during the last 20 years, so that the university has embraced the educational imperative. it has been their duty for a long time to see the university administration, the faculty, the students, everybody is on the same page. i think this is just a much better situation to see the administration and the trustees embrace this issue, because really, this university is where the tragedy happened. the university has a duty to make sure that this does not happen again. >> hi, this is joe lewis. i'm speaking to you from my home in oregon. i am very sorry we cannot get together for the 50th men commemoration ceremony and celebration. for me, it was always a bittersweet reunion. i am very glad to be able to get together in honor of the memory of allison, sandy, jeff, bill. i am also happy when i can get together with my blood brothers. very kind and wise men who share a unique experience and life. i am glad for the participation over the years of the may 4th task

president obama pardoned major general cartwright, he was accused, pled guilty for lying to fbi officialsthe media about iran's nuclear program. so this whole issue of president obama speaking now, why is he talking now? is he trying to get ahead of the narrative and set the narrative again in the media as democrats have done in the past ahead of the john durham's criminal probe of origins of the trump russia probe? is that what is going on? >> it certainly appears that way according to a transcript of this phone call from friday. again, this is not a politically convenient narrative for the obama administration and in any way, and if he personally didn't have anything to do with it, again, why would he be out there trying to spin the narrative? i think, you know, ultimately i would want to ask president obama, what if an incoming administration had done this to you, and had basically set up your national security advisor in some sort of an attempt to get him to lie when really this was quite an innocent and normal phone call for him to be speaking to the russian ambassador? i don't think
