i break my cartoons into two categories, contextual and non- contextual.[laughter] susan, this might be the wind talking, but i think i want to order more wine. contextual cartoons are the ones that have-- you know, have some sort of connection to a world event. non- contextual is where we create our own environment and the new yorker's famers for this to create an entire world that exists. i love these nonpar textual cartoons because you can play with visuals on writing or trying to capture our day and find a fun way to use it. you got the damn thing on inside out. [laughter] try not to scratch it. [laughter] this cartoon is-- [laughter] not ready for this one yet. need to the setup. there's good stuff coming. the other one with the blimp, i included because it has not been in the new yorker yet. sometimes they sit on them forever, so you are all seeing that cartoon first, so when it comes out whenever it comes out you can say you saw it here first. i'm a political cartoonist by trade and i've always brought a lot of that to my work in the new yorker, but

format and to update.yet we likewise make a broad variety of information to consumers and try to contextualize it. it's sending a signal that they deserve the information and itsl incumbent to really help them travel on this journey. >> expand on what's required by hospitals now and what was different before that? >> sure. so right now what is required is they include pricing for every singles service and procedure they offer to consumers based on non-negotiated prices. standard pricing meaning that which is not subject to a specific negotiation with an insuranceje company. there is no specific format required so that's one of the challenges of the new regulations. for consumers to really make their way through these lists of services, it's a bit difficult to make apples and apples comparison. i think they are signaling that everyone can start iterating new ways in which to make it more usable, more user-friendly and that's why having a backstop because consumers can take the information that they receive on this individual websites and formulate questions that go into an independent database

a broad variety of information available to consumers and really try to contextualize it. i think it is sending a signal that consumers deserve this information and it is incumbent on all of us to really help them to travel on this journey. expand on what is required by hospitals now and what is different before that. guest: right now, it's required they include pricing for every single service and procedure ony offer to consumers based non-negotiated prices. their standard pricing meeting that which is not subject to a specific negotiation with an insurance company. there is no specific format that is required, that's one of the challenges of the new regulation. for consumers to really make their way through these lists of services and procedures, it's a bit difficult to make apple have apples comparisons. i think the federal government is really signaling to hospitals that everyone now can start iterating in creating new ways in which to make it more usable, more user-friendly and that is health as aair backstop, because consumers can take the information they see all th

contextual data such as 3—d maps, weather, gradient and rider information is also added to bring theife. during the race, riders wear earpieces and, following close behind them, is the data car, where the team analyst is dissecting the data and feeding them live information. and so what happens in here, it's quite an important place, isn't it? imagine if you have a comms office when you're trying to fly a rocket to the moon, and just feel like we're that place in nasa where all the details come in and they come in from all directions, and then we send out one message to the riders. hundreds of datasets are analysed, from competitor tactics to live course conditions. so we analyse all the climbs, the gradients of the climbs, the road surfaces, the width of the road, any road furniture, anything — you know, coming round a blind corner and there's a pedestrian crossing, all of these sorts of things we try to find. we are in the race. this is happening, this is live. what are we saying to the riders? come on, serge, you have got 250 more metres, hard. around the next corner, the hairpin,

should be relative to the general population, so we will hear an individual story but we will contextualize it and the words that really got me, this is the last thing i will say before i turn it back over to them is as betty was sending me her writing i got a piece of terrance's writing and he wrote, i'm writing this from a prison cell wondering where the story should start and where it's going to end. i guess the only place i can really start this story or any story is with my mother and grandmother. i was raised by two strong women, the best of who i am is because of who they are, they loved me with a fierceness of their belief that loving unconditionally was the only path that could travel along side me on this journey and so as i turn it back over to them whether you connect with their story in deep level because you have an incarcerated family member or you have been through it yourself or because you're someone who have people in your life that you love, this is universal story about love and about support above anything else and so i'm really honored to be here today but i'm going t

no not a bit in this story in this hour eloquently and greatly contextualized you can expect trump to president trump to. now pull back or actually go into details how he would manage to devastate turkey's economy. during a said of course he is playing with the idea to increase or levy new terrorists on turkish imports in the united states and that would be a way. he gets his will so this was typical trump on a sunday in this press twitter form or tweet form so to speak and today a story has said before the administration like they always do are going back a little bit and trying to get this into a more diplomatic diplomatic feasible language and there's where we are right now by the way in terms of visitors to ankara chief of staff general dunford will be visiting turkey on tuesday. ok let's take it now from turkey to russia on friday the new york times reported that u.s. intelligence which is the f.b.i. had looked into the possibility that u.s. president trump may have been an agent of the kremlin a spy for russia in the white house now the report we understand sent trump into orbit

didn't get when it comes to national discourse such as a platform of this sort is didn't fully contextualized so i don't have programmatic issues that whereby we don't have we cannot have a discussion of the gratian that is based on actual research and facts and what we didn't have is a very highly partisan driven narrative what we need to have a big article is a better go into play because then i think they have a good chance we have to say hi and that damage there may be some want to. all. right. all right let's talk. this is what you know this is what we're talking about and this is what i want to get to become but i dissent very very clearly as does our audience for what you're trying to get i believe is this idea about how do we sit down and have a dialogue how do we actually talk to each other in a civilized way earlier on today on al-jazeera we spoke to the president of the movement for democratic change this is what he told us on how. we are willing to compromise in the interest of the country but we can't compromise on the fundamentals we can't compromise on the fuck sure issues we h

contextual data such as 3—d maps, weather, gradient, and right information is also added to bring theders wear earpieces and, following close behind them, is the date a car, where the team analyst is dissecting the date and feeding them live information. what happens in here, it is quite an important place. imagine if you have a commons office when you are trying to fly a rocket to the moon, that little place in nasa where all the details come in and they come in from all directions, and then we send out one message to the riders. hundreds of datasets are analysed, from competitor captives to live course conditions. we analyse all the clients, the gradients of the claims, the width of the rose, any road furniture, anything coming round a blind corner and there is a pedestrian crossing, all of these things we try to find. 0n the tour de france, with restrictions on sponsorship deals we don't get any heart rate power data, but we do get location, which is absolutely crucial, because we can make decisions much quicker. we are in the race. this is happening. this is light. what are we say

and that what could be better than contextualizing the career of morris abram in the larger story of jews and human rights in the 20th century? so, jim will be talking about alsoecent book, but has generously added in more information and will be referencing more things about of help usm to sort better understand and contextualize his career. so, it is my pleasure to introduce james loeffler. he is the jay berkowitz wish history atwiw the university of virginia he writes on themes from zionism and the holocaust to jewish music and yiddish culture. his first book was the most musical nation jew and culture in the late russian empire. published in 2010. 8 major awards and honors. in may, 2018, he publish the book on which this lecture is based "rooted cosmopolitans: jews and human rights in the 20th century." and so that will also be the title of his lecture tonight. i should encourage you the book is outside for you to buy and read after the program. with that, that is my privilege to call on professor james loeffler. [applause] prof. loeffler: good evening. it is a pleasure to be her

i contextualized within their community. if i could, i would run a walking tour company where i could take people around and show them the various surveillance technology around them. i'm a very busy person and it don't know that doing to a groups of six or seven people is the most effective way to get our message across. however, maybe this concept can transfer over to something like virtual reality. taking a step back, with the cut virtual reality and local law enforcement technology, police already working on virtual reality stuff. this is a company out of georgia called motion reality that has a warehouse sized space where police officers put on virtual reality helmets, they are given real feeling, real, fake electronic firearms and they are wired up head to toe and they going to run scenarios, and that can be replayed back so they can see what they did right, what they did wrong. one of my favorite things about this is they are also covered in i guess electrodes, so if earshot they get shocked and demobilized in that pa

judge capital talk about contextualism to take the words of the constitution very seriously. he had an opportunity to rein in corporal punishment in the seventies and declined to do so of egregious t facts because it doesn't violate of cruel and unusual punishment for purposes of the constitution because it doesn't stem from a criminalpu conviction. but if we are serious and to live out their commitments and offer the arguments then it is possible with freedom of speech we can have common ground to have that constitutional doctrine. >> and one example this term a case that is pending and argued a few weeks ago and those w amendments you probably have not heard of right between the cruel and unusualfi punishment and whether or not and whether it was is incorporated charged with an offense and then to bring this claim under state law but the case involves civil forfeiture and then to be charged with a drug dealing and into the opioid addiction and then to seize his automobile and claimed that was excessive but there was a very good chance that court would incorporate that claus

social media is incredibly contextual. neither automated tools nor often human analysts are that great at parsing out that context. the second major concern is the risk of discrimination. this kind of comes in two forms. the first is that the key words themselves that the tools will be set to flag on will be discriminatory. so for instance, an aclu report found that when the boston police department set up a social media monitoring tool, the hashtags that it was flagging included black lives matter, ferguson, muslim lives matter, and the arabic word for community. needless to say, these words aren't signs of a public safety threat. so these tools are only as good as the people who are using them, and there are a lot of ways to use them to further a discriminatory mindset. the second is the risk of discriminatory impact. so whatever key words are flagged, there's going to be a huge amount of discretion in what's done with the results, including which students are brought in, who is punished by the school, and even who is su

across the board, there was not deep contextual specialized knowledge the way when tom was trained and i was trained, there was a lot more resource, a lot more resources, funding going into graduate support for training overseas, those things were drying up. and discouraging students from doing it. the best way to get a job is a domestic issue. we were surprised, but the interviews were very clear. >> that is interesting because it raises the question, are universities paying lip service to globalization but actually not really -- >> one thing you find is tension between specialized knowledge and cosmopolitan citizens. a lot of push over the last we 10 years in universities have been the rising study abroad, short of one or two weeks. that can be learning experiences but they are geared more toward creating citizens can navigate public transportation worldwide than actually developing public knowledge that is rich and embedded in local -- >> not enough to buy a euro house. >> that is important. and that is two months. and you are talking a longer experience. >> your book was provocativ

you will get that information in the monthly statistics as well as five year average so it is contextual in what we are doing now compared to before. year-to-date as of october the department of police accountability received 557 new cases as of october 31st. that is a 27% year wide over what had been received by october of last year. you will see what i have added to that report is a summation how complaints come in to the agency so we can focus on how to best serve a broader audience to receive and make complaints. most come on the phone. the second largest number of complaineds come in person. third is online. over 20% of the cases come in online. one of the challenges with the lack of technology before was the cases were lost or going to other agencies. that is why we focused on having the digital imprint, better website and broader technology. that is one of the main reasons why the numbers have gone up in terms of the number of folks reaching out to the agency. if you look to the last few pages, it is broken down what types of complaints are brought to the agency. you can see the t

if true and accurate and contextual. that is what we need to wait and see.o look at it as part of a pattern, though, of news of the last couple weeks. and the important thing in many ways is no matter how sensational this story, the pattern itself is so damning about the president of the united states and his conduct as a candidate and as the president in terms of whether wittingly, unwittingly, half wittingly he has been manipulated at almost every significant turn by vladimir putin. >> it's a good point about the pattern because i think folks at home, it is easy to lose track of this. keep in mind, we learned that the president's campaign chairman gave polling data, it is alleged to the russians. we already knew that the president's national security adviser apparently authored relief on sanctions on russia during the transition. i think it is important to look in that broader pattern. another part of that pattern that michael cohen has pled guilty to a crime of taking the president's direction to break campaign finance law. that part of the pattern is lis

the design is modern but contextual. relative to light, and air and glazing, it is generally understood and accepted that the facade the mid-block open space in the open environment is often the most appropriate facade for -- it is necessary to bring light and air to interior spaces. this is even more the case with this property, the front facade facing a 14 foot alley. and the facade faces a sliver of open space. the existing three floor mass extending 12 feet. on floors 1, 2. the glazing on the facade facing the mid-block open space is critical and necessary to bring natural light and air into the interior space. thank you. >> all right. thank you. public comment in support of the project sponsor? >> good evening. i am at aladdin terrace. my property is 16 feet away from the proposed project. i look out of the building. it is one of the ugliest buildings of san francisco. i don't think there will be argument. it is an atrocity. i look at every day is a massive stucco, ash, asbestos wall. it is ugly. i am thrilled that

why he let her keep them, who we are glad they did, because they are salty, contextual, and wonderful. a of the dialogue comes from people writing in their diary. a number of members of the cabinet kept diaries for at least part of the time and also other people around lincoln. then the least reliable stuff are the exchanges that people wrote in their memoirs later and years later. so i try in my notes to indicate -- there is a wonderful book by a great lincoln scholar called "recollected words of abraham lincoln," and it contains all of the stuff that he could find, and then he would grade each one on how reliable he felt it was. and i try to refer to that book , so that if you really want to know an exchange, should you take it to the bank, is this something will be remembered 30 years later, that is your resource. all right? thank you very much.

contextualize it for us on the back and forth. >> the president is speak in the past tense.d the state of the union has been canceled. he seems resigned and shifting the fact to blaming nancy pelosi who he said several moments was the cancellation. that to me is the indication they may not try to reschedule. they talked about a plan b earlier today. from the president's tone just now, it doesn't seem they're inclined to do a plan b and he's resigned and accepted the fact the speaker controls the house, she's not inviting him, she's not going to let him come there and he's not going to be giving that venue. he's trying to shift the blame but in a moment there, i thought that was a presidential almost adopting a defeatist tone. >> i wonder if the president realized -- maybe that realization that the speaker of the house controls the house and building today. hans nickel at the white house, appreciate it, thank you. >>> that wraps up this hour. it's been a busy hour. thank you very much for watching. "deadline: white house" with nicolle wallace starts right now. >>> hi, everyon

with a story like this, it's important to contextualize what it means. it's not just that trump broke protocol or somebody with no political or foreign policy experience is having one on one private conversations with the leader of a hostile foreign power. part of the presidency works by having continuity. trump has interrupted that. he's walked back our international agreements. he's broken protocol. now he's having conversations with a foreign leader that whoever takes over the presidency next is not going to be able to read the notes or understand what was promised, what that relationship was. that's dangerous not just in the immediate term but in the long-term stability of our relationships with our allies and our enemies and our ability to be a world power. i think putting it in that context, making clear what huge ramifications this has not just in the immediate term but going forward is crucial to the great reporting gregg is doing. >> i saw a great report that "the washington post" returned the serve with this piece. how does that piece affect yo

alabama press got in touch with me so that someone could contextualize and annotate the story areas it was published a year ago. a little less than year ago. in a lot of ways, quimby was a typical civil war soldier. he was born in ohio in 1842. his family had migrated west. by the time the war began, he was living in wisconsin. the average civil war soldier was a white nativeborn farmer, protestant, single, between 18 and 29. the average soldier stood five foot eight inches tall and weighed 143. the average age was under 26. the mode was 19. he enlisted along with his older brother. he was six feet tall, light hair, blue eyes. gave his occupation as farmer. six weeks later, he was in oshkosh where he was officially mustered in as a sergeant. they bounced around for two years. finally in the summer of 64, they are engaged at the battle of jonesboro than they are part of the siege of atlanta. as sherman's army made ready for the march, the 32nd wisconsin was transferred to the 17th corps under general blair. here is where george quimby story parts company from the wisconsin because he wa

there is this passage of the russian disinformation talking points into the campaign as a way of contextualizing and creating a narrative. i don't want to miss that point because it is that disinformation which was part of the russian operation. >> he is charged with seven counts, lying to federal officials, obstruction of justice, witness tampering. we heard from sarah sanders. there is no collusion and no conspeiracy charge. this is something that stone's attorney made note of. they say it vindicates him. is that the case? >> first of all to sarah sanders, when i listened to that video it sounded incriminating. she was asked a question, did you know anything about the campaign reaching out to wiki leaks to try to coordinate with them or find out information from them? what is her response? she says cnn tries to do the same thing. cnn tries to get their hands on the e-mails. the question was whether or not the campaign did that and whether or not she was aware of trump being involved in that. she was not willing to answer the question. that sounded like an evasive answer like she did not want t

and then bill clinton said he would have been serving us coffee and even al sharpton tried to contextualize because the idea, again, was these are good progressives, they're good people. they couldn't be guilty of racism.d it's not a window in their soul. it is with republicans but with the democrats, progressives and leftists it's inadvertent or allowed. it's dangerous to do that. >> tucker: tools to win power. we should remember that. professor, thank you verywe much. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: if they meant it, then the southern poverty law center wouldn't be on a lot of this. you heard of the splc, phony anti-hate group that exists tony crush people they don't like. to tar conservative organizations as fellow travel travelers with the kkk or whatever. we have a director of immigration studies and his group just sued s.p.l.c. for designating them for a hate group. someone finally fighting back against this. what is the basis of lawsuit, mark? >> our attorneys decided thehe way to go is to file rego lawsuit under the reck tier influencer -- racketeer influence and corruptt organizat

i also would like to bring up some thoughts that, you folks, as the commission, and being contextualized in the state of california, have a responsibility not only to steward resources in this community for future generations but also lead the way in global innovation as the climate crisis unfolds. here is looks like water issues. i like to bring up something actually with you all as the commissioner. you actually adopted the environmental justice policy with a goal to preventative tease on communities and all sfpuc service areas and ensure that public benefits are shared across all communities. so as a direct stakeholders, i implore you that understand the decision you make to lessen flows to those rivers are actual tangible impact that's will result in decreases public-health for communities in people that look like me. the destruction of species which this graphic was meant to portray that showcases stories ostoriesof the white sturgeon, l crane, the delta smelt, the schnook salmon runs and all those species by refusing the flows you are contributing to the mass i. tankio extinction.

saying these things that sound pejorative when, in fact, they're based on hard repertoire y'all contextualact. >> it's sad but it's true and we have to say with what's true. carl, thank you for being with us this morning. >>> much more ahead including this question, who is really in charge, the president or conservative media boosters? we will analyze his call to jeanine pirro right after this. i'm a fighter. always have been. when i found out i had age-related macular degeneration, amd, i wanted to fight back. my doctor and i came up with a plan. it includes preservision. only preservision areds 2 has the exact nutrient formula recommended by the national eye institute to help reduce the risk of progression of moderate to advanced amd. that's why i fight. because it's my vision. preservision. also, in a great-tasting chewable. and back pain made it hard to sleep and get up on time. then i found aleve pm. the only one to combine a safe sleep aid, plus the 12 hour pain relieving strength of aleve. i'm back. aleve pm for a better am.

often so much of the air time that donald trump and then president trump received was sort of contextualized checking. one of the frustrations that so many have is so often that fact checking doesn't seem to move the needle in terms of how trump supports feel about him. there's been a constant effort by the media to hold the president's feet to the fire day after day. his feet don't burn among his core supporters. i get that's a source of frustration. at the end of the day the news organizations have to walk that fine line. they have to cover the news. that's their mandate. and they have to do the best they can with fact checking and smart analysis. >> professor, one of the things that stood out yesterday among the coverage after the networks announced their decision was a reporter who pointed out the state of the union is in just a few weeks. why not wait until the state of the union? why do it tonight? >> i mean, exactly. i mean, we all know intuitively that this is a political ploy. we all understand that what he's trying to do is he's trying to leverage the platforms of the major network

as i said on our air, we don't know whether or not this story is accurate, contextual, true and it needs. but buzzfeed, indeed, has been at the front of this part of the story. i think you also need to look at what the pattern has been in terms of the reporting of the russia story by all of the press. that is is that it is the press that has been accurate throughout this. hundreds of thousands of stories by the ap, by "the washington post," by cnn, by reuters, by all the major news organizations, "the wall street journal," that have turned out to be true and the president has been telling one truth after another in regard to russia. his conduct has been the issue here. not the conduct of the press, which he would like it to be. the record of the press in reporting the russia story is actually pretty spectacular. when there have been mistakes made -- >> trump's allies point to the mistakes. they point to big mistakes that happen at cnn and elsewhere. are you saying we're not batting a thousand but batting pretty close? >> what i'm saying is the reporting on the russia story and the trump

and there is other kind of contextual point about this, outside of the popular culture one and the historicalarticles of impeachment that were drafted against richard nixon, we often talk about the obstruction of justice quite a bit. we don't talk about the contempt of congress one. and so in doing this, he's not only witness tampering, but he is directly violating the separation of powers and interfering with a congressional witness. >> leave it to a new yorker writer to go that deep in the history or in the crates, if you will. we have some of that i'll put up here in both the nixon and the clinton cases, which are different presidents. you have witness tampering as one of the articles. >> right. that's right. and so it's kind of like stepping over trip wires after trip wire after trip wire. it's also telling that this letter was sent not only by the chair of oversight, not only by the chair of intelligence, but by representative nadler, who is the chair of the judiciary committee. and so this is a kind of subtextual -- there are lots of other things that are going on. on just the language

we didn't get when it comes to national discourse such as a platform of this sort isn't fully contextualized so why then have problematic issues that whereby we don't have we cannot have a discussion of the gratian that is based on actual research in fact what we did have is a very highly partisan driven narrative what we need to have a big article is allegedly better including this yes we have a good chance we have to say hi and then there may be a someone or two. all. right. all right let's talk dialogue this is what you know this is what we're talking about and this is what i want to get to become but i hear your dissent very very clearly as does our audience for what you're trying to get i believe is this idea about how do we sit down and have a dialogue how do we actually talk to each other in a civilized way earlier on today on al-jazeera we spoke to the president of the movement for democratic change this is what he told us on how to. we are willing to compromise in the interest of the country but we can't compromise on the fundamentals we can't compromise on the issues we have to com

my question is how do you think of contextualism and how do you square that with judicial may test. i asked this question in light of your recent dissent in the gun magazine case. i saw some critics say that this was a criticism of judicial may test. >> i will have to let what i wrote speak for itself but one of the liberating things about being on an inferior court again is my job is just to interpret and apply my best reading on the president of the supreme court. i don't mean to say that the majority was not attempted to do that. i think they were trying a good faith and i was trying a good faith but it's not my job to go back and figure out what i think is an original meaning, second amendment means or what is policy my job is to read the precedent especially the recent ones by the supreme court about its meaning and try to apply. they have suggested that this kind of scrutiny out to apply here or there and that is what one does and then it's for our superiors on the supreme court to decide ultimately whether we have got it right. again this is not a blank canvas to paint on and

act andeviewed the cannot find any contextual support for this treatment. the only the station drawn is in the section where they impose a duty of the chief judge to identify a complaint when he becomes aware of misconduct. from then on, and identified complaint does not distinguish from a filed complaint. you need an exercise in statutory interpretation, as fun as i find that as an apple -- appellate lawyer. it is part of the proposed new duty to report misconduct. if a judge takes this seriously and reports harassment of his. but the chief judge handles and formally without going through the formal process, the judicial process and committee and the public will all be deprived of any information about the condition -- judicial misconduct. conduct can remain siloed within particular districts or circuits at a time when we should be taking every effort to bring that kind of action to light. in fact, referring and identified complaint being a last resort actually encourages effect. we urge the conference to give serious consideration to the rule of governing

a broad variety of information available to consumers and really try to contextualize it.nk it is sending a signal that consumers deserve this information and it is incumbent on all of us to really help them to travel on this journey. expand on what is required by hospitals now and what is different before that. guest: right now, it's required they include pricing for every single service and procedure ony offer to consumers based non-negotiated prices. their standard pricing meeting that which is not subject to a specific negotiation with an insurance company. there is no specific format that is required, that's one of the challenges of the new regulation. for consumers to really make their way through these lists of services and procedures, it's a bit difficult to make apple have apples comparisons. i think the federal government is really signaling to hospitals that everyone now can start iterating in creating new ways in which to make it more usable, more user-friendly and that is health as aair backstop, because consumers can take the information they see all these in

you have this remarkable passage where you contextualize all the input people gave in these hearings. >> in order for the schools to be closed legally there has to be a public hearing where the city presents their case for the closure of the school, and then community members can come up and they get two minutes to testify. people have been pulled -- i have seen people get pulled off the mic crying. i have seen kids get pulled off the mic. there's a video of me at one of these meetings, like basically a security guard is trying to take me away and i'm doing a bob and weave, and another thing is, furthermore, additionally, as well, moreover. and so there's this bizarre spectacle of an event. i find it interesting the ways in which chicago, which is a profoundly un-democratic city, creates these ways to construct the veneer of process, right. i think that that's something that's mirrored in a lot of bureaucratic settings. i think many of us have felt in our workplace, perhaps, or in situations with people, very disempowered in situations where it's clear that a decision has been made ag

. >> i think what you heard is we're all trying to grapple with the specific contextual problems that we deal with but we believe climate change is real and a problem. >> there's no doubt in your minds? >> no. >> i want to bring it back to washington in the few minutes that we have left. there has been speculation that one or more of you may be looking -- >> i'm selecting resumes. >> i have to ask you first because it's been noted you're going to iowa, i guess there's a governor's meeting up there, but it happens to be the first caucus. >> i'm going to iowa because i'm the vice chair of the national governor's association, they happen to have a meeting in iowa. this is the second time i've seen a new hampshire governor in the past two days. that doesn't mean anything. i'm not sucking up to new hampshire. but, look, i'm focused on maryland. i was sworn in last week for my second term and that's where my focus is for right now. i'm flattered that people are talking about that as a possibility, but it's not something i'm focused on. >> you're not ruling it out. >> who knows what's going
