cohen. my feeling they lack a live witness defense mr. cohen.ially you could build a against against mr. cohen. circumstantially you can build a case against a lot of people. however what you don't have, is a person who can attest, i did do this furtherance along with -- >> based on this indictment, are they still trying to do that? >> in my opinion they're still trying to do that. >> okay. >> and my opinion, what i'm looking at the only people that actually can do that, are mart toma, even more and steinberg. >> more than march toma? >> more than march toma. steinberg. we know commune kated with a daily base list by phone or in person with cohen. >> right. >> what the government needs in any case. has all the, can have e-mail and phone call and minute later you have a trade. >> right. >> but they need a human being to add life to that >> you're the federal government. sec hit cohen with fail ture to supervise, which could ban him from securities industry. if they win it will put him out of business and probably going to get a huge chunk of chan

cohen: thank you. i yield three minutes and 53 seconds to the gentleman from kentucky -- connecticut. the chair: the gentleman from connecticut is recognized for three minutes and 53 seconds. >> thank you, mr. speaker. i rise today to oppose this misguided piece of legislation which would erect new obstacles and red tape to protecting american lives. mr. courtney: at the outset, let me reiterate what mr. cohen said which is that congress already has the power to disapprove any rule through the congressional review act, through appropriations process and through other authorizing legislation. h.r. 367, let's face it, is essentially an attempt to impose a procedural choke-hold on protecting american citizens and i want to talk about one of those proposed rules which is now pending at the occupational safety and health act which is a rule to prevent the continuing litany of workplace fire and explosions from combustible dust. unfortunately the rules committee didn't see fit to an allow an amendment by geo

and andy cohen is employed by msnbc.only taking a stand against russia, but against the company. >> right, it is a principle stand. and we all have those moments when we have to decide you know, whether our employer or our employment is larger than whatever obligations we have. if there is an issue there. and this law in russia, i think -- andy and i agree with him. you know, you have got people who are being harassed for who they are. andy cohen is openly gay, he doesn't feel comfortable going to a country where people are oppressed for being gay, and the law is so vague that if maybe walking down the street with your partner could get you arrested, nobody wants to put themselves in personal jeopardy. and i think andy cohen taking the position he has is a principled one. but it also sheds even more light on how unjust these laws are. >> and it shows you the pressures that are coming on these companies that are dealing with russia now. and nbc already is under a lot of pressure because they're going to have the olympics.

i'm certainly irrelevant to stevie cohen and his operation. big guy when it comes to assets with him. lori: quickly, ed, can you give us any sense how much your investment with sac? >> i can't, lori. if i could give it to anybody it would be but my lawyers would kill me. lori: your analysis and experience in the financial markets is so priceless. thank you, ed. >> thank you, bye. david: almost got it out of him, lori. he was breaking. he was breaking. more time and you would have. >>> ford's lincoln division is revving up its challenge to german luxury brands, mercedes and bmw. can lincoln get in the fast lane? we'll talk to lincoln's global marketing chief. that is coming up next. lori: this is such a sad story. things are getting worse and worse in egypt. we learned general motors closed its factory there. violence flaring up. will other companies follow through? we will speak with rostelecom holdings executive chairman. copd makes it hard to breathe... but with advair, i'm breathing better. so now i can help make this a great block party. ♪

secretary cohen said it very well. a short-term targeted strike from the united states is going to prompt a reaction. possibly the usage of more chemical weapon, which, of course, will then cause us to go in a second time, a third time, and we will very quickly own the battle space there and be involved in yet another quagmire in the middle east, not to mention what comes after a revolution or the fall of assad. which is a long-term civil war. what i want here is for us to just be very sober in our understanding of what a targeted military strike means. it may mean a long-term very expensive, very costly engagement for the united states. and i fear that right now in this issue, our politics are being driven by some very legitimate short-term humanitarian concerns that may belie a much more costly endeavor in the long run. >> i want to ask you a constitutional and legal question about role of congress in all this and read a statement from speaker john boehner about a conversation he had with the white house. this aftern

senator murphy, thank you -- there is william cohen. thank you. former secretary william cohen. how are you? >> i'm well. >> secretary cohen, my first question is from a purely technical capacity standpoint, you're in the meeting in which the president is asking you the question, okay, what are possibilities, technically speaking, for what the u.s. could do when we talk about rendering accountability here? what are we talking about? what do those look like? >> the first question would be -- sorry, i got an echo. first issue would be, what is the mission? if you define the mission clearly, can we execute ccesull? what are the costs? not only in terms of money but in terms of bloodshed and also the possibility of collateral damage. so these issues have to be settled early on. following that, you say, well, mr. president, you defined the mission to do what? to punish assad? well, how heavy do you want us to go or how light? is it some kind of a goldilocks scenario here? i would also warn the president or caution the president saying, once you take step one, are you prepared to take

thank you [speaker not understood]. >> good afternoon, chair cohen, supervisors. thank you for having us here and giving us space for this conversation. one of the sad things about losing our locally elected board is that there is now no formal public space for these kind of conversations to happen. it won't be happening at city college for the foreseeable future. and, so, the fact that you all have stepped up and provided the space i think is extremely important. i will be brief. you all have been asking excellent questions and i want to thank you for that. and there are a lot of people back there who know a lot more about the details of what is wrong, about what is happening here than i do. but i want to make a few points. i don't want to pick on gohar [speaker not understood] because she works very hard and she has worked very hard over the last years and she continues to do everything she can to keep city college open. but she presented you with a set of basically accjc talking points about who they are and how they operate which in my brief experience on that
