congress has not been assertive and energetic. you say the agencies are taking liberties. congress could do something about that. congressld take actions when it doesn't approve of what they're doing. how do you think about the peculiar kind of passivity, or is that right? >> no, i think you're exactly right, and i've been criticizing congress about this for some time now. congress has willfully ceded its own respondents, abrogating its constitutional a responsibilities in many ways to the executive. and then even when those powers have been abuse with the, congress refuses to step in. i'll give you an example that i was very bent out of shape about when with i with was in the senate. it's congress that has responsibility to regulate trade among the nations. now, congress delegates certain powers to the executive. as a practical matter, some of those make sense. one of them refers to section 232 of our trade law that authorizes a president to impose restrictions with quotas or tariffs if national security requires it, in his judgment. well, under the trump administration we saw the very promiscuous use of 232 to justify

party at these the elections will most likely be closed, but the congress remains, we must fight for the congress. although the congresself is now gaining momentum, if this congress is a melu congress, there will be no losers, but if the meluka congress was already uninteresting, well, well, trump came and he declared there, here they are all , well, what was particularly interesting was clear who again shoot him now now now this is such a show when a man is brought into the ring like a wrestler and it’s not interesting to you, we have people like that all the time. you are not interested in this, maybe you are our hogan i don’t like it, hulk ivanovich, that is, you don’t care either, have you seen this often? in general, he has already torn a lot of t-shirts, it’s not like they would shoot at my guy , a senile striptease, a man of 70 years old, try to kill the next president of the united states, we’ve had enough, that’s enough, and i said: a written application, signature of these 300 delegates, if you take into account that the list of approximately 300 people, which 2 weeks ago included 10 each, yes, then this is a

any formal act of congress needs to be going through with the president having to sign. it is very strong and it uses congress in a much weaker place. congressried to sort of re-create the legislative veto in various forms over the years. one is a congressional review act. talking about it earlier. it is not that good of a replacement. most of the time the president will protect their own agency's actions. the kind of device he was trying to build, i see it as we need to talk more about those for particular areas. i don't think those should be seen as partisan products. another good example, the national emergencies act. that is one that is gotten a fair amount of play in the covid era. the president speaking to an emergency. congress can vote those down. the way they do it is with joint resolution which the president can veto. so, the president is in such a structurally strong spot and congress has not been that creative and figuring out how to put itself on a level floating. it has some resources, it has some choices that can make. justice breyer wrote about how we can re-create the veto in a constitutional way all the way back in the 1980

congress. but this was common throughout. the continental congress is in existence. that colony work took precedence over work in the congress. congress changes when they look to for their next president, they look to the colonies and the records of the second continental congress. blandly that you, john hancock is unanimously selected a president. his moderation is what gets him the job his wealth assuages. moderates and conservatives. but he has strong rebel. he smuggled which fomented a mob. and he also had been served as president of the the provincial congress in massachusetts, which was the first political body to form reject rule by the british empire. so he had credentials. but this is the problem for his fellow massachusetts delegates, john adams and samuel adams. hancock. oh, look at him. okay. so this is we know this as independence hall today, but this is the pennsylvania state house at the time where second continental congress was held. and we see hancock with the arrow as president. he sat in the front of the room with the delegates at the tables in front of him. john excuse me, john hancock is not supporter o

congress, congress districts or whether it be states or senators in challenging areas. now you're hearing from them the concerns they have and how it might affect them, and on top of, that you have the donor class who is showing great reserve right now. with, that i do this with a very heavy heart in seeing that i would like for president biden to be able to finish his five months leaving this country, truly leaving this country the way we know he can. i've known him for many, many years. he's a good person, and he's a patriot. he wants to do the right thing. he wants to heal and bring people together. if at this point in time, he would pass that torch, he would be able to focus all of his energy to the next five months of how do we heal? how do we get to a peace treaty? how do we support ukraine so that they can have a strong position at the bargaining table? these are the things, and basically show the rest of the world, it's able to have a transfer of power, and do it in the most beneficial way for the whole world to see that it can be done. >> but republicans are saying if they -- if he can't stand for re-election, then he can't even serve the next five months. >> let me just say -- >> you think he's capable of serving the next five months. >> congressman turner and i both understand that the rigors of the campaign is tough. i have been on statewide campaigns and it takes a toll. the president needs to be the president, okay? but being in a campaign mode every day, every day being in campaign mode, and thinking wha the next fund-raiser is going to be, takes you away from needs that we have in the world today, and in our country. i definitely believe he can do that, and i believe he can do it better than anybody else and lead with a legacy unmatched. that's what i know can be done and should be done, and i'm just very hopeful that this torch is passed to a new generation to allow president biden to be the president i know he is and can be. we have our disagreements. we get back and forth, and -- but i've -- i have all the confidence in the world he can do that. >> how much time do democrat haves to settle this? >> i think the time is very short. i mean, if it goes into the campaign -- into the, you know, convention itself, that changes the whole dynamic, but before the convention, i believe it can be an open primary process, and let the cream rise. i've got two governors in my neighborhood. i've got kentucky and pennsylvania. both working in challenging areas. both able to be able to work with a legislature that is not of their own party, being able to not to villainize anyone who happens to have that because they have a name, and bringing states together and having some progress. let's hear from some of the rising stars, this new generation. >> but black women are the backbone of the democratic party. if you bypass the vice president, kamala harris, doesn't that undermine -- >> this isn't about race and gender. >> no, but it's about votes and turnout. >> but the bottom line is 51% of those people who are participating and voting and processing america are registered independents. they're not registered democrat or republican. only 25% republican and 23% democrats. these are the people that want issues solved. so worrying about whose agenda and what race you are, other than what the issues are, how do they lose democrats like me? lifelong democrat from west virginia, i was raised in a family and also understanding that that's not my enemy on the other side. democrats were basically held accountable and responsible. we are basically fiscally responsible and socially compassionate, and i don't believe the government should be your provider. government should be your partner. >> so there's this open process before the convention kbl. >> right. >> and kamala harris emerges the nominee. would you support her? >> i want to see the platform change. >> would you consider? >> sure, i would consider. >> in a vice presidential spot? >> forget about me. >> you're not going to run? >> no. this is a new generation. we've got a lot of deep people on the bench that can serve, and they have proven their medal by being in an executive position. give them a chance to rise. give president biden a chance to do what he really, really can do. see, i believe that the president should have only one six-year term. i don't think there should ever be a re-election, and you need a president from day one until the day they finish. >> so last night in michigan, this is what donald trump had to say about the disarray among democrats. >> they have a couple of problems. number within, they have no idea who they can -- and neither do we. this guy goes and gets the votes and now they want to take it away. that's democracy. they talk about democracy. let's take it away from him. >> do you fear that by speaking publicly, not dealing with this earlier, that democrats are not just hurting their own candidate, but hurting faith in the process? >> well, first of all -- >> there was a primary. >> let me just say this, we saw the convention for the republicans, and they did a wonderful job. four days, perfectly scripted. then president trump spoke and the last hour of his speech never changed. i still have the concerns about transfer of power. i know the january 6th was real. i have these concerns an him continuing to attack the judicial system that we have and the rule of law. i have all those same concerns i have had, and also sending signals he might not be there to help the free-loving countries that are allies and nato allies and people that count on us that freedom will be there for them. those are my concerns, and nothing has changed. >> jd vance is from a similar part of the country that you are from, and he has made a virtue of that. said he's going to go out and campaign in michigan and ohio and pennsylvania, talk about his appalachian roots and he calls himself the most pro-union republican in congress's railing against corporations. do you find this pitch to be authentic, and will it work? >> jd, i've always said this. whoever you send me from your state, i'll make sure they're successful and we're all successful. i haven't had that much experience with jd because he hasn't been there that long. he seems like a nice person, and we have had pleasantries. i came -- not only my roots, but my entire orchard is all about west virginia. that's who i am, so when i see that, i have been asked one time about my democrat colleagues. they asked me and said, what happened to the west virginia democrats? i said, nothing. they want to know what happened to the washington democrats. we've done everything they've asked us in west virginia. mined the coal, and many more people, and given their blood and lives, supporting our country, patriotic, and now we're not good enough. we're not smart enough, and we're not green enough. what happened? we're the people that basically helped build this country.

he the need to bring congress in because it's such a big issue. congress punts. congress doesn't help. congress sort of gives him some ambiguous responses, leaves it in his hands and he handles it for grant. as a as we were just talking about grant tax back and forth and zigzags depending on what congress is giving at any point. sometimes gives him power with the enforcement act. sometimes congress takes it away when they de-fund the military and start mustering people out. grant doesn't try to go his way. he doesn't try to keep the military in the field. he doesn't try to use funds from another to pay for things he says. all right. that's the will of the people i to respect that and taft to the same extent is trying to work very carefully with congress and of course with the courts some of the best for taft respecting separation of powers is, of course with the supreme court and the 16th amendment, with the personal income tax that congress had initially wanted to check the supreme decision ruling, personal income tax, unconstitutional. 1895 congress wanted to respond wi

congress, congress districts or whether it be states or senators in challenging areas now you're hearing from them with down ballot and how it might affect them and you have the donor class showing great reserve right now. with that, i do this with a very heavy heart in saying that, i would like for president biden to be able to finish his five months of leading this country, truly leading this country, the way i fknow he can. i've known him for many years. he's a patriot and wanted to do the right thing and heal and bring people together. and if, at this point in time, he would pass that torch, he would be able to focus all of his energy toward the next five months of how do we heal and stop the fighting in gaza and get to a peace treaty and support ukraine so they have a strong position at the bargaining table. these are the things and basically show the rest of the world how the superpower of the world is able to have a transfer of power and do it in the most beneficial way for the whole world to see. that it can be done. >> but republicans are saying if he can't stand for re-election and he can't -- you think he's capable of serving the next five months. >> congressman turner and i understand this, that the rigors of a statewide campaign are rough. these are tough and it takes a lot of toll. the president needs to be the president. okay. but being in a campaign mode every day, every day being in campaign mode, thinking about the next speech and the next fundraiser, it takes away from the needs that we have in the world today and in our country. i definitely believe he can do that and i mrbelieve he could leave with a legacy unmatched. that is what i know can be done and should be done and i'm just very hopeful that this torch is passed to a new generation to allow president biden be the president i know he is and can be and we have our disagreements, we get back and forth. but i have all of the confidence in the world he can do that. >> how much time do democrats have to settle this. >> i think the time is very short. if it goes into the -- into the convention itself, that changes the whole dynamics. but before the convention, i believe there could be an open primary process and let the cream rise. i have two governors in my neighborhood, i have kentucky andy bashear and josh shapiro in pennsylvania both working if challenging areas, both able to work we legislature that is not of their own party, not to villianize everyone who has an r by their name or a d by their name and bringing states together and having progress. let' hear from the rising stars of the new generation. >> but black women are the backbone of the democratic party. if you bypass the vice president kamala harris, doesn't that undermine. >> this is not about race. >> it is about votes and turnout. >> the bottom line is 51% of those people who are participating in voting in america are registered independents. they're not registered democrat or republican. they're 25% republican and 23% democrats. these are people that want issues solved. so worrying about whose agenda and who race you are, other than what the issues are, how do they lose democrats like me? life long democrat from virginia. i was raised in a family and also in a understanding that that is not me enemy on the other side. democrats were held accountable and responsible. we're fiscally responsible and sociall social compassionate. >> so if you go through this open process before the convention and kamala harris and vice president emerges as the nominee, would you be able to support her. >> i want to see what the platform is and the policy. >> would you consider in a vice presidential spot on that ticket? yourself. >> no, forget about me. >> you're not going to run? >> no. this is a new generation. we have a lot of deep people on the bench to conserve and they've proved by being in a executive position. give them a chance to rise and give the president a chance to do what he could do. i believe that a president should have one six-year term and thereshould never be another election. you need a president from day one to the day they finish. >> last night in michigan this is what donald trump had to say about the disarray among democrats. >> they hve a couple of problems. number one, they have no idea who their candidate is and neither do we. this guy goes and gets the votes and now they want to take it away. you talk about democracy. let's take it away from him. >> do you fear that by speaking publicly, not dealing with this earlier, democrats are not only hurting their own candidate but faith in the process. there was a prime. >> let me say this. that first of all, we saw that -- the convention for the republican party, four days and perfectly scripted and done a great job of unity. and then president trump spoke. and the last hour in his speech never changed so i still have the concerns about orderly transfer of power. i know that january 6 was real. i have all of these concerns about these continuing to attack the judicial system that we have and the rule of law. i have all of those same concerns i've had and also sending signals he might not be there to help the free loving countries that are our allies and nato allies and people that count on us to have that leadership and be there for them. those are my concerns with what i've heard and nothing has changed. >> j.d. vance is from a similar part of the country that you are from and he has made a virtue of that said he's going to go out and campaign in michigan and ohio and pennsylvania and talk about his appalachia roots an he called himself the most prounion republican in congressailing against corporations. do you find this pitch to be authentic and will it work? >> j.d., i've said this, whoever you send me from your state i'm going to work every way i can to make sure we're all successful. i haven't had that much experience with j.d. he hasn't been here that long. seems like a nice person. i came with my roots, mein tire orchard is about west virginia. and they want to know what happened to the washington democrats. -- we have more people that have given blood and life supporting our country patriotic and now we're not good enough, we're nort smart enough and we're not green enough. what happened. we're the people that helped build this country. don't leave anybody behind. so with that, that is why i am not -- because i believe that the far left of the democratic party has captured truly the party that i knew. and they've captured and taken it away. i want to see that party come back. they should be trying to get the 51% of the independents like myself that h

congress congress occasion on that we reached out and actually spoken to the like victim who was found safe. and well, i'm not the least bit surprised. i've never owned a land cruiser in my life. i don't even live in that area. the i have somebody in yeah, let's not, let's not, we've just lost a single day with us all these. i see sweetie. it's been a breaking news story now for the last number of hours. yeah. steve, it's all right, right. if you, if you got a few more details over to you by all means bring us the latest. yes. so it seems very much that this was a case of mistaken identity. the alleged victim of power, the has the same name bought on have served in the russian ministry, but whoever placed this improvised explosive device a seems to have very much targeted the wrong person. now there's a lot of speculation, again that this was a targeted attack that nobody has claimed responsibility for the blog so fall. but you'll recall that the ukranian intelligence chief carol, but don off gave a media or interview in which he listed what he described as legitimate targets for such attacks. these include people associated with the special military operation. the list was broad enough to even include a good list of cause targeting june. this is against the geneva convention against international crew. a loan is deemed to be, i will crime. but this will be a reminder, of course, all of the assassination of daddy ado. going to the goodness and daughter of the philosopher alexander, to gain in the most go region. now, russia's investigative committee, they have opened a criminal case. experts and investigators and emergency services are still working at the scene to determine exactly what took place here. so all right, i'll corresponding there. all of these are steve sweetie. thank you. right over to can you now with a, a gas and st. 5? i feel the i was smoke cause damage, right. is class with police. it's uh well now the 1st timing of what the last 5 weeks of heavy confrontation is that the protestors who have been demanding the president when able to design knowledge, been squaring off with pro government groups. with the support from nairobi all to you is kind of someone today how sweetness, another day, or for lightning, but those between the citizens and the police officers. yeah, i the capital city of nate will be and across the different cities in the country. now the young people are state of the month, they are not financing saying that the government of the day must school that the government is not listening to the voice of the young people. the government is not the cd to the cause of the people that were helping coordinators for good government and lowering the cost of living. the able to date was to finalize the transportation. so therefore, we saw a number of young people in the line being the own, the main road that had to the international airport of, uh, looking at, uh, of course, uh the government produces some of the because we have seen police offices . um, you seem to have this kind of stuff to try and be costly, closer to godaddy, and to quote uh, some of them was shooting uh, in the, on the quote to dave, you able to see a number of people really getting window to here. and uh, what came out of town load today, is that up in cold during the unpaid government properties? oh yeah, that'd be navigational is that the government's phone side of the young people, of course, in the motorcycle to come on this drop, the ongoing process. and so it was a class between, um, i'd say government wrote this kind of the federal government was down the kitchen between them. so the police officers seeing you need to auction duties. wow. to be spot everyone that was here in the cd out of court today. they've seen, but on the peaceful, state business activities in the capital city, where a number of people use their shops of big shopping center as high school markets will close for the fields. i think i'm in protest and of course the people are saying this is even one of this topic is that they use things so that the government, the voice is the cold. recently, even outside the president. uh uh, we've been through the controversial for and months being a bit of a default, which was a native new the see that uh, the tod post city to me so frustrated to myself that they didn't belong to this country. they uh they said it to myself, of course they say um uh they are from move. that is up to what is happening. i bet you've heard of been through the country police. i know big deal just if you as the see i do can hear that does a lot being able to i just hope they do that the police officers part of you seem to be surprised. they do these parts of the crowd. therefore, as a result, even the president, when you'd be some means of the members of the members of the company, it does seem to be pointed to some of them what this means, that for the pain that it is the start they do, the government is not see any government due to the court. and of course when this is the president, he said that the these products are being funded by the dimensions of the charity organizations, such as the ford foundation. because uh these, uh, these products are being organized uh, organ you've had the homeland way young people. and it is not clear where that good thing, this whole system of funding. definitely the kitchen, mounted by the president saying that he thought instead of giving his vision for the ford foundation, funding a piece of property on the from uh, uh, tucson, strongly, again, its allocations of the president buddies, the, the, i guess of course kinda stuff. but part foundation has come up clear things about the daily split, the democracy of this country, and then not funding. uh they, i'd say government prostate. i would leave it at that point because it gives us a in the air. i'm able to get the reset to be keeping you posted, of course of everything the top in my name is the motor channel. the news from the capital city alternate will be ok. so apparently he's actually alive and well up the days of hunkering, joe biden. finally pops up for a ride back to his washington, h q. as after american social media was trending with a missing post. and hash tag is the big guy was absent for days. that was, you know, by declared over the weekend that he was dropping out of his bid for a 2nd time. the announcement was made and a post on ex without any address to the nation. by the way, had many people wondering whether or not it was actually his own decision as the president, right, the same forwarding have forced one in delaware. it's a head of a plan speech at some point today. no off the biden's name was scratched off. the ticket is vp campbell. a higher says she's not well and enough support from democratic delegates to become the parties. official nominated president and harrison says she's ready for the fight. i had and according to monday night pulled up delegates the car and v p seems to have inherited all of biden's, diehards as no other option has so far being pushed forward. despite the fact that harris is not officially being nominated, she's already somehow secured over a $100000000.00 and donations to funding have potential presidential campaign. i am told as of this morning that we have earned the support of the mouse delegates to say we are running a people power campaign and because we are a people powered campaign, that is how you know, we will be a people 1st president people, 1st presidency kamala, well good luck with considering will the 90 percent of all of us stop the started working with her and 2021. yeah, they old with they resign, they failed. why? the report say working for her life was missing and so i made all the twist on the unless tons and us politics and recent months and overwhelming number americans now say they don't believe in the current state of american democracy in his don't me saying it by the way it's just new sort of a revealing that 72 percent of us citizens used to think the country was a good example. but apparently, if now it changed that my with appalled also shows how people abroad feel about the current state of affairs in america. is pretty harsh to be honest with you and some european countries of a 60 percent said the us is no longer an example of a democratic country. i mean, even washington's palm is and asia, south korea, japan, they're not buying it either. many of the respondents in majority of which, in the middle east or north africa, had an even stronger reaction. well, as usual, as part of the own, blissfully unaware of top officials in washington. i've seen it again going around the world. there's a desire, there's a thirst for american engagement for american leadership. even though we have disagreements with countries, they still want us in this and, and even leading to try to get to a better place. we lead in democracy, right? we lead in the freedom of the press and what that looks like, you know, only one country on earth can provide the kind of leadership that this moment to manage. and only one country can consistently provide the power, whole combination of innovation, ingenuity, and idealism. and a free minds, free enterprise and free people. and that's the united states of america. and i mean, do you think people are still buying that kind of rhetoric is gotten so old already, and we spoke to a panel a guess about, you know, really what is happening in america these days. a disingenuous to the max that they don't care whether you buy their double speak on gas lighting or not. they just completely ram it down your throat and they're pushing this candidate now as if she's uh, has some popular appeal, whereas she was completely disgraced in her presidential run. she got demolished on the debate stage and she has no real record to, to uh, to recommend her whatsoever. her whole career has been sailing up where it's really and that's exactly what we see going on this way this regime operates. this is basically a pass soccer. see that is ruled by psychopaths and the psycho past. promote other psycho past who have absolutely no conscience and they have no their confidence is not the real issue. the question, is there a total and complete a loyalty to the regime? whatever it does, united states has been foisting its leaders on other countries via visa v. c. i a cruise for decades, and yet it runs around claiming to be the vast gen of democracy when in fact it violates democracy all around the world on a regular basis. how can we know the condition of the missile? where the there's been a 100 hold on for is useful important to wicker been but she knew it would be fine . yeah. oh, come on. the hobbies i saw the image you disappear from where the to no explanation, the little girl. well, what is happening to is it just like love you guys? did you want to go to the government to own you filter to support the like you need your brothers support a new bought a total of 25 years. whatever the don't like doing that is something that is on to dickens. so there are people couldn't see about the whole comfortable democracy and that is why in so many one do the clean up system complex situation where the for example, say a say they, us lady list, particularly the us. they cannot access that. an independent country like india, kind of have an independent policy. what they don't understand is that the multi word as broad as humanly the 4 system is finally, it will be getting question because the work is getting more baffled this day in the body shop. the door to solve his wife's questions and i'd be happy to go cannot any more syllables though? the building will be empty, lloyd. oh, dear road. yeah. bad timing. baby against a backdrop of very uncertain political leadership in america. the prime minister of israel, benjamin and jo arrived all of a sudden adults in washington, but did not receive teresa. the warmest of welcome on the right, that's a pretty impressive throw. now frankly, i protest as against the war and gods gathering inside the congressional office building in washington. they spoke out against the as ready, prime minister, and the us military aid to israel. the demonstration only last about half an hour before. yeah, you guessed it, there they are there the cops making numerous arrest? well then yeah, it was a side trip. comes of the idea has been forcing palestinians to flee from attacks and the southern gals and city of con eunice, which of course, as you well know by now was continuously labeled as a safe zone. interestingly enough to look at the picture on your right there on either president biden or however, as even the secretary of state. and he blinked and i know of them when to that washington at board to greet the as ready, prime minister when he arrived. not exactly a welcoming match. the banner right, the rates will criminal stand here. if i wasn't clear enough arrest netanyahu was spelled out as well in protest as a quite, apparently livid that he was even invited to washington. in the past. the i'm here because netanyahu the orchestrator of genocide in gaza. we're here because this guy is a murder. he's of able evil mean person. and he's been invited by our able mean congress to come and speak. i'm focusing the nothing you i hope you get to the united states. this guy is a war criminal. you should not be, we should not be hosting or criminal. this guy is very responsible for the hundreds of thousands of people killed in gaza. and i really think that we should not be accepting people like that in the united states. we're here because it's absolutely ridiculous. and m yahoo is welcomed into our city. the city of dc or billions of dollars goes to israel and it should be funding the people's me absolutely. discussing that our congress welcomes is here as he continues to kabbage on the side of the house. i mean people we spoke with both of them. all right, of the onset co addition, who told us why he's organizing yet another demonstration against that. then you a completely outrage that the united states government has extended this invitation to a work and all were criminal who was responsible for genocide and was wanted around the world for has more crimes. t

congress building chanted against the war criminal. mohammadan nikmin of radio and television news agency. simultaneously with the speech of the prime minister of the zionist regime in the us congress, a large number of people of this country occupied the congress building and chanted slogans against the presence of this war criminal. enraged by netanyahu's presence, people burned american flags and netanyahu dolls. demonstrations of angry american people outside the walls of this country's congress while the prime minister of the zionist regime is giving a speech in the congress. do they burn the american flag? and with it a man a symbol of america with netanyahu's head is also thrown into the fire. a little further on the big statue of christopher columbus. one of the unbelievers writes in red color that hamas has come with the symbol of an upside-down red triangle , that they are inviting netanyahu to the congress as the perpetrator of a terrible genocide, unforgivable and unforgettable . palestinian flags were raised by reporter miguel marquez. this is how cnn describes the situation in front of the us congress building. this is the remains of an american flag that is burning here and there you can see the remains of another american flag t

what we found is that threats to members of congress, both republican members of congress and democratic members of congress. rose five fold on an annual basis, starting in 2017 with the first year of the trump presidency. >> one of the most violent examples of this was in 2017 when an apparent bernie sanders supporter fired on republican congressmen practicing for a charity baseball game gravely wounding steve scalise then majority whip we've learned a chilling new development. >> hutchinson was found with a list of names on him, including members that were at that baseball field at the time, james hodgkin, son died following a shootout with police in 2022, paul pelosi, husband of then house speaker nancy pelosi, dialed 911 after a man broke into their home and stood by listening to his call. >> this gentleman just came into the house and wants to wait here for my wife to come home. >> you know who the person is no i don't know if she's going to do anything. what is your address, sir? >> drop the hammer when police arrived. what is going on? >> this disturbing body camera video shows the intruder hitting p

congress. he launched a large congress for influential women and from 100 countries participated in this congress to see the achievements of iranian women up close and see the achievements of 80 danish companies whose directors are women. it was very interesting for them to show what they were seeing in iran and it was the opposite of what they had heard in the propaganda against iranian women, and after that they had extensive relations with different countries on a bilateral basis. multilaterally, we had 220 meetings with different countries, either virtually or in person, with the officials of female managers, female advisers or female ministers, and the exchange of opinions and thoughts and the support we could get from them in this field , so that the women's committee we formed anti-corruption and had several meetings with countries that are aligned with us that women themselves should take action to deal with corruption, to deal with the use of women as a tool to deal with the use of women's bodies in social environments, in administrative environments, thank god, at the ayora meeting, at

disagree know i would also like one for the for presidents and the first families and congress, congress and congress, yeah, a good one. >> yeah, yeah. >> congress has an ethics committee, right? it's lot a lot of people say, well, should they be investigated themselves? but they at least have some sort of structure in place. the courts don't. >> and that i think or at least the supreme court, right? and the lower courts do, right? lower courts and the supreme court is really like the one body, the governmental body that doesn't have anything holding them countable and i think that's sort of what this is getting at at a time when public trust in the institution is eroding across the board, right? these are measures i would think he's the code of conduct. 100% is something that i think people could get behind that term limits like you could argue that members of congress have an ultimate term limit, which is the voters. the voters get to decide, but they don't really haven't term what there's no right. they don't have a term limit, but voters can hold them accountable at any time. i've voted them out

to didn't think congress had answered a question and didn't think congress had focused on it and at the end of the day it was a policy question and it was a policy judgment that congress was not in trying to statute. there was this particular question about the clean air act had been decided. years later judges on the d.c. circuit and officials in the reagan and bush administration decided that this one paragraph, the paragraph that all of my students in administrative law permits -- pretty much had to memorize about the true stats. because the way was framed and because of language used it looked like a test in particular the reagan and bush administration used that paragraph to push back. against legal challenges predicted major scripts for the interpretations that were designed to make programs more flexible and less stringent than they were otherwise. it was something the group over the time as the fact that the executive branch pushing back after litigation the d.c. trip circuit at the time had accepted what some thought was congress's indication to read various regulatory fact sheets for broad language in very broad terms and aspirational terms. as it was cited

let's talk about the contrast piece processors in congress, jewish peace processes, and congress are arrested. it is there, a war criminals is cheer in congress. that's the contrast. another contrast that is worth mentioning is what it just brought to my attention. he got the answer to the speech, tried to compare his very casualties to those proportionately. it's of course america where america spoke about. so many americans would have been killed in october. so let me give you another set to 6, although not exactly into 66 of this. if you do proportion a comparison between those were killed in gaza. g, the population, the united states. we're still going to buy 7000000 americans killed thus far. 7000000 americans in 10 months. that's the portion that nobody should have been using congress or i think congress knows that it also knows if you look at the space and the refugees, 10 minutes at mazda of genocide, that would be compatible to 320000000 americans refugees. after 10 months for war, 32100. 20000000 americans refugees. that's another contrast to be made. but i think once he went on beyond the numbers, i'm sorry, the people his vision.

congress is held. they participate in this huge religious event. we hold the congress every year, except during the corona era, when the traffic was reduced anyway, and we are happy that this year the fourth international health congress will be held in arbaeen from today. for 3 days in razi conference hall at iran university of medical sciences it will be held after the international congress. how was it seen? which countries are they from? we have 38 foreign guests in person from six countries. the countries of iraq, we also had a discussion that this congress will lead to greater cooperation between us and the health officials of iraq, god willing. similarly , from the countries of turkey and palestine, we fortunately have the head of the medical field of the palestinian islamic jamaat in our group today. anyway, in connection with mass gatherings and the necessary points in the field of health in these gatherings, especially in the current situation of palestine, also explain, god willing, also from the countries of lebanon. kuwait, as well as pakistan and australia, we have guests, usually from afghanistan , their traffic route is from our country. unfortunately, we do not have the health experts of these countri

congress of influential women be held? was and registered. which took place about 40 thousand 37 thousands of influential ladies and elite experts from several countries and in the ideas of the second national congress, the first national congress accepted the international part of armenia and asked to be in charge of it, and i think it will be done in the coming months , but the part in the first congress of armenia, he proposed that the military be the division. internationally, the national congress will be responsible for the registration of the names that started from december to isfahan , thank god, about 37,000 ladies, the registration of the arbitrations went through various stages , arbitrations were held virtually, in person and a number of women in each province were selected for eight working groups in scientific and artistic entrepreneurship groups. the media of different social groups of governance and 24 people were elected in each province and 8 of those 24 people were the best. being elected and in different provinces , these awards were supposed to be given in a centralized manner with the presence of the president, but unfortunately we encountered the martyrdom of the president, so it was held in different pr

they to new york to congress, everybody who's also a congressional member races up and because the convention technically imagines itself reporting back to congress and they get to congress and congress pretty clearly the people who will become the virginia opponents try and get the entire read debated line by line like it was a report and madison and other people who were in philadelphia think that they think that effort, the whole the whole thing goes differently. if congress re debates the whole thing they think that effort and then move to omit the fact that they had that vote from the record and made assent. so now there's no evidence that was even an attempt to read debated. and madison writes to washington, this is what went down in congress and writes him back. that's pretty good. people rarely peek behind the curtain and and i do there's this way in which the fact that then congress, the entity that technically sends the constitution out. yeah yeah changes the way ratification feels to a lot of i have to say mike's point about rhode island know like new york and virginia. i mean, think of new york and virginia ratified it doesn't that nine other states ratify? i

congress to congress the lex exceptions are there's seven votes. i'd mentioned province previously were two-thirds are required. there's some quorum requirements. and it's interesting argument because people like james madison alexander hamilton, they were all for a majority role and if you think about the filibuster, it's a super majority thing where you need 60 in the old age. you need 67 to proceed on certain types of business. so this is kind of conflict between the concept of what's called majoritarianism where the majority should rule in most cases, but clearly the founders intended for congress to establish their own rules. what is your position as editor-in-chief at the national constitution center? i have a really cool job and i get to work with the constitution every day and i run a blog called constitution daily, which we've had in some form i think for about 10 years. i've been to editor of that blog for the past eight and a half years since i joined we have about 500,000 monthly readers and we talked a lot about history and some current constitutional topics and i kind of wrangle or i'm the editor. that was a product so i write for it and i do other stuff and i'm also involved with a lot of the digital work that we do. we are an extensive digital education organization. we have live classes we do and podcasts and videos and a lot of fun stuff. well here at c-span we often turn to the national constitution center for its experts and scott bomboy. who is the editor-in-chief at the ncc joins us to talk about the filibuster. we appreciate your time. th

congress really in cahoots? look at one important question -- should we limit the terms of congress? governor clinton says no. congress says no, and i say yes. [cheers and applause] we tried this -- look, we tried this once before, combining the democratic governor of a small southern state with a very liberal vice president and a democratic congress. america does not need carter ii. [cheers and applause] we do not want to take america back to those days of malaise. americans want to know -- where is proof that we will have better days in washington? i will give you 150 reasons and that's how many members of congress are expected to leave washington this year. some are tainted by scandal. the voters have bounced them the way they bounce their own checks, but others are good members, republican and democrat, and they agree with me -- the place just does not work anymore. 150 new members from both parties will be coming to washington this fall, and every one will have a fresh view of america's future. i pledge today to the american people immediately after this election, i will meet with every one of these members befor

congress could fix all of this. congress can override a supreme court decision by simply legislating around it. congress make whatever tweaks to the criminal justice system some that they want. again, the problem is that congress is hopelessly gridlock, right now, and it's sort of in a fantasy world like in the textbooks. yes, that's what would happen. but mcconnell, all of those idealistic visions he laid out there congress can do and could make happen. and the earliest are what tell you it's point, congress has ceded power. executive branch, regardless of who the president or the congress is. basically since the end of world war ii. so eisenhower, kennedy, johnson, nixon, all of them got more and more power which impact where we are today as process and it's not sexy but that's reality. >> so you mentioned richard nixon and i'm glad you did because i just want to flash back to what nixon said in 1977. i mean, if you're richard nixon wouldn't you want your presidency back? let's watch to see what he said. >> well, when the president does it, that means that it is not illegal so he said, what the presid

congress, i would like to tell you that in order to enter the final congress, we will find 12,000 martyrs of pi city of tehran province. the reputation of the neighborhood in the street and later in the city. the province has organized city commemorations after these city commemorations have been held. during the islamic revolution , we had the stone martyrs of the holy defense. we had the martyrs of terror. we had the martyrs of the construction jihad. and our dear martyrs who were martyred in kehrizak, shahid jahan ara shahid kolahdoz, these martyrs, their memorials were held in the cities of tehran province, and later we were able to celebrate our martyrs in a provincial way, but every night in one of the cities, approximately 12 until the martyrs our crust it was held in 12 cities with the rare and passionate presence of the people of that city, that class and that class of martyrs in that city. to hold this congress, many congresses were held during the last year. last year, in the last two years, very good commemorations were held, well, after these city commemorations, we always emphasized that the commemorations of our martyrs were also held . a lot of investment was made. a lot of effort was made. the commemoration of our student martyrs is approximately 1,425 commemorations. madrasi vijeh shahada student at the city level in tehran province, today most of the school classes in our cities are named after martyrs and dear students have their classes named after them. the martyrs know each other. yes, let me ask you about it. our visit is a success that we have found. in the past one year , we had almost 18,000 unruly visits from the families of the great martyrs, and we went to see them . the families of the parents of the martyrs are mostly not among us now, and they are going to god's mercy, and we should take advantage of this opportunity and be present for the main congress and the final s

congress. as we know. we live _ members of congress. as we know, we live in _ members of congress. we live in a _ members of congress. as we know, we live in a social- members of congress. as we l know, we live in a social media world now, and things like expansion, finlandjoining expansion, finland joining unfortunately don't expansion, finlandjoining unfortunately don't really make sound bites. instead what do are those gaffes, the confusion of names and so on. so do you think that could still damage him staying in this race when ultimately that is what is going to be clipped up and going to be clipped up and going around the world, the confusion of those names? i completely understand confusion of those names? i completely understand what you're saying and i think right now the media and much of the world are on a hunt for gaffes, so they won't listen so much for the policy or the legislation, they will listen for the moment he stumbles, so i think it is pivotal for the president to do everything he can to avoid those moments, and i don't know how he can, ijust don't know. you kn

congress? | respond to that what round he was saying this for congress?— saying this for congress? g this for congress? i hope what republicans do is what i saying this for congress? i hope i what republicans do is what ronnie said, he has chosen to step down and is no longer the potential nominee for the democratic party. because as the democratic party is going to move forward, they will focus on the future and they will focus on who can be responsive to the american people. we can go down this rabbit hole of conspiracy theories, but that's not where the american people are. they have been begging us for years now to give them options other than the ones that they had another democratic party is going to be responsive to that, so if the republicans want to open a an investigation into what is party politics as to how somebody gets nominated or doesn't get nominated, or whether or not they choose to be nominated, have at it. the democratic party is going to talk about the future of this country and i think it's going to stand in stark contrast to recriminations about the past and a
