i think dianne feinstein came out and said that there was no there was a need there to dismiss. i think it was perfectly legal what she did when she set it up. what she said was she shot herself in the foot. article, whereis the primary day hearing on hillary clinton's e-mails per they said the legal haggling over her use of her private e-mail accounts, secretary of state seems desperate to shatter the campaign, with the hearing set on the same day as the new hampshire primary on february night, the u.s. district court judge has ordered government lawyers to appear in court that day. he issued this monday afternoon. butid not give specifics, the hearing seem to discuss the status of the safety department's efforts to comply with an order that he entered last year, requiring monthly release of over 54,000 pages of e-mails and clinton turned over to a former agency. at its request. hillary clinton, in iowa last night. this is what she said to her supporters about the campaign. is very it is rare, it rare that we have the opportunity that we do now. to have a real contest of ideas.

they are risking a larger backlash that will have the federal government step in and do what dianne feinsteinafter paris, right after san bernardino. >> they don't want to get in this if god forbid there's another san bernardino or paris and people are using encrypted iphones. the backlash would be tremendous, not just apple but basically this entire industry has to think about how again they balance their political instincts and their devotion to privacy and commercial interests with the fact that we have collect i security interests as a society. it seems the pendulum has gone way too far towards the individual privacy thing. they have to find a much more realistic balance. so, you're right, they will have rules written for them that they won't like. >> maybe they could be invasive like poll their customers, because they have our data anyway, all of these companies, and ask them what their customers think about being able to create something that would allow us to see the phone that was used by the terrorists in paris. i am sure most of the customers, if not all of them, would support it. t

. >> dianne feinstein, the ranking member of the intelligence committee, who's had a chance to reviewn did not originate with me and that there were no classification markings. >> you said many times that the emails were not marked classified. no evidence that that's not true. the nondisclosure agreement you signed as secretary of state says that that is not that relevant. it says that classified information is marked or unmarked classified and that all of your -- you are trained to treat that sensitively and should know the difference. >> well, of course. and that's exactly what i did. >> really? is that what she did? judge napolitano? >> you know, we don't know -- good morning, steve. we really don't know what she did except that she caused the nation's most sensitive secrets to pass through a nonsecured server. that is a crime. whether it falls into the hands of evil doers or not. >> just setting up the home server is in effect a violation of the u.s. code? >> setting up the home server and causing governmental information to come on to it is a violation of the u.s. code. whether s

dianne feinstein the ranking member of the intelligence committee who has had a chance to review them there were no classification markings. i do want them released. >> your supporters including tom vilsack former governor of iowa and senator feinstein have suggested it's political. is that what you think? >> well, i'm going to leave that to others who are quite experienced in the ways of washington to comment on. i just have to point out that the timing and some of the leaks that have led up to it are concerning. this is very much like benghazi, george. you know, republicans are going to continue to use t beat up on me. i understand that. that's the way they are. but after 11 hours of testimony answering every single question in public, which i had requested for many months, i think it's pretty clear they're grasping at straws. >> you heard what secretary clinton had to say about other democrats who were concerned that you as a democratic socialist will get slapped with that label and not be able to win in a general election. >> in terms of what people are going to get slapped with,

declared her candidacy for president the first time in 2007 , she cosponsored a bill with senator dianne feinsteinhat explicitly called for obama, requiring -- requiring president and to close guantanamo transfer as many as possible to other countries and bring those that remain to the u.s.. a month later she voted along with a vast majority of the senate, for a consent of congress -- consent of the senate. an amendment to another bill that stated detainees should not be brought to the united states. only three senators that did not vote with the bill. one of them notably was senator sanders. she was a very staunch advocate for closing the prison. she said she supports this plan which presumably means she supports bringing detainees to the united states. although she has been somewhat careful to avoid that specific and controversial part of the plan. she was asked about this in south carolina. it is significant because south carolina was one of the states they had studied to potentially hold detainees. she was asked if she supported ringing detainees and she said let's wait to see the president's

the thing is dianne feinstein went to silicon valley after paris asking for help and they basically stiffion with the german code and we're -- are we actually going to have to have our federal government trying to spend billions of dollars to do what american companies should do on their own to keep americans safe? >> one of the mystifying elements of this story is why apple and the justice department couldn't figure out how to behind the scenes just crack the code of the password for the phone. that's what this is all about. this is clearly a big public relations bo nan za for apple in terms of customers. >> if i'm a terrorist and i want to blow up buildings and kill a lot of americans, i'm getting an iphone. >> all right. >> no, i'm serious. they're disgusting. what privacy -- >> customers are concerned about privacy. >> oh, really? >> yeah, so are terrorists. >> we will be right back. i think it landed last tuesday. one second it's there. then, woosh, it's gone. i swear i saw it swallow seven people. seven. i just wish one of those people could have been mrs. johnson.

appreciate the strong support provided by the california senators, senator barbara boxer and senator dianne feinstein who helped to draft this working group and the provisions there. they also serve as cosponsors of our safe pipes act. the senate must pass this robust bipartisan legislation. we all have a responsibility to prioritize not only the efficient permitting and construction of energy infrastructure but also the safety and the security of our nation's extensive pipeline network. thank you, mr. president. and i yield the floor. i would suggest the absence of a quorum. the presiding officer: the clerk will call the roll. quorum call: quorum call: a senator: madam president? the presiding officer: the senator from montana. mr. daines: i ask that the quorum call being vitiated. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. daines: madam president, general rosotti passed away monday in his butte home at the age of 82. montanans know him from his efforts to expand his restaurant's flourishing business. he bought his restaurant when sandwiches were sold for a mere 55 cents. according to his oldest

yet again in 1998 i'm grateful that california senator dianne feinstein was championing that commission as she was looking at the same issue then, 18 years ago to determine that the ninth circuit was overly burdened and suggested changes needed to be made to the structure of the federal courts of appeal. and so i look forward to working with my colleague from alaska as we have identified this problem and look forward to a solution. if there's something we hear over and over and over again for the american people is you're not solving the problems facing this country. we have a problem. we have a solution. i look forward to vigorous discussions, continue to get more information, and look forward to the alternatives here. we think this is the best solution to split the ninth, add the 12th circuit. and even after that is done, you take the ninth and create the new 12th circuit, the ninth circuit is still the largest circuit by population in the united states. again, i want to thank the junior senator from alaska for taking on this effort. i look forward to continuing having this discussion
