immigration and customs enforcement on his agency's mission to enforce immigration laws. topics include stationary cities, asylum-seekers, and the separation of migrant children from their parents. it is an hour 15 minutes. jessica: good morning, everyone. thank you for coming. this is the second in our series of "newsmaker" interview people prominent in the immigration world, and today we are speaking with acting i.c.e. director tom homan, immigration and customs enforcement, and we are going to have a wide-ranging conversation on everything from sanctuary policies to the influx of illegal immigrants over the border to potential congressional legislation, deportations, work force enforcement and so on. tom and i will be speaking for a while and we have a process for submitting questions that my colleague, marguerite, will be organizing. she will pass me those at the and of our time here. thanks for being here and let's get started. you know, i appreciate your being here today. one member of congress, representative joe crowley from new york, issued a letter yesterday sug

as you know, i'm doing work on comparative enforcement and due process in antitrust enforcement. so, let me ask you a question that i get and see if you can help me answer it and help us collectively answer it together. due process is sometimes said to be a common law-oriented, adversarial process-oriented idea. in civil law jurisdictions, i think it has to include them, and the breadth is important, but civil law jurisdictions are based on inexquisitorial models with judiciously-led inquiries which don't necessarily have the same conception that american law and british law do. have you encountered any pushback or resistance or difficulty fitting the ideas that are sometimes more associated with adversarial systems, with civil law jurisdictionwise a different tradition? >> great question and thank you for your academic and intellectual input into this arena. we can use more and more research and the type of important contributions that you make into this arena. it's an important point. it's one where as it's designed, it is intended to address the concerns over in the civil law

when you're in the law enforcement regime, you know, the core principles and values of law enforcement are not something subject to trade. >> we have a question over here. >> yep. >> so jacob harold with "guide star." so for many years, antitrust law has been focused on consumer welfare, price in particular. with the rise of the flat form economy, we've seen that become really complicated. i guess my question is: will this new procedural framework offer a way for us to have a collective conversation on how antitrust law in general needs to evolve in the platform economy? >> yeah. well, for many years, it focused on consumer welfare standards. and for many more years, it'll continue to focus on consumer welfare standards. i think that war has been somewhat fought and over. it kind of reared its ugly head last year a little bit with certain policy workers. but cooler heads, i think, across the political spectrum won on that issue. it doesn't really -- antitrust should not -- we should ultimately look at the effect on competition and consumers. and price is not the only factor. it's price

there is a swell of support for fundamental enforcement of due process in antitrust enforcement. the time is right to propose shared thinking on these objectives. today i would like to share with you our recent efforts towards a new approach for an improved system of competition enforcement. the goal is to garner increased confidence and respect for antitrust enforcement globally. specifically, we intend to achieve agreement among competition agencies around the world for fundamental antitrust norms. towards that end, i am pleased to announce the next week, the u.s. in partnership with leading antitrust agencies throughout the world, will introduce and invite the global antitrust community to finalize and join the multilateral framework on procedures and investigation and enforcement. as we do well in the federal government, we assign new acronyms, mfp for the multilateral framework on procedures, for short. for the past several months we at the justice department have been drafting proposals and meetings with our counterparts around the world to develop a draft to serve as a bas

you can either enforce the law, or unify family members. we're hearing from many of our democratic colleagues that the administration ought to simply quit enforcing the law. but that is something we all have taken an oath to uphold and defend the constitution laws of the united states -- constitution laws of the united states. and whether you're a legislator, the president of the united states, the secretary of home land security, the head of immigration and customs enforcement, we have all taken that same oath. i know u.s. customs and border protection folks, and all the men and women who work under them in the rio grande valley are trying to do what is required of them by their job, and that is to enforce the law. and that's a good thing. we appreciate all they do. so the answer to this current situation is a solution that allows us to both enforce the law and keep families together. they don't have to be mutually exclusive. we have got to keep family members together and prevent unnecessary hardship, stress, and outrage. that's not our p

and conferring with law enforcement. they may be giving us a two-minute warning or something coming up. here's the police spokesperson for the anne arundel police, ryan frashure. he may be just getting ready to give us some information. >> there's the gopher nor hogan in the blue blazer. there's the lieutenant ryan frashure, the spokesperson. let's listen in. >> good afternoon. i'm lieutenant ryan frashure. we have a brief update for you guys. just do give some details. please bear with us. we can't answer a lot of questions. this is still a very active and ongoing investigation. we are trying to make sure that everyone is safe. and then once the building is secure we have a crime scene obviously so we anticipate this being a very long investigation and very detailed investigation by the detectives. i'd like to introduce first our county executive steven r. shoe to answer questions and give you updates. we limit questions just for investigative purposes because we have a lot of work to do. thank you. >> thank you, office

to jim's point earlier, law enforcement, immediate response by law enforcement, is to put that threat down. go to the sound of the gun fire. address the threat and ensure that the immediacy of the threat is done, they have to ascertain, is there anything else to do? the methodical search of each suite, every floor, closet, hvac system, everything, will take time. so this is an active investigation that's going on right now. it's still dynamic. remember, this building, 888 s gate across from the anne arundel medical and near the mall. they want to sure that the public in the area secure, no secondary attempts so this is still a very dynamic situation within the area. as you can see from some of the footage. law enforcement at this site may be taking a more reduced posture. anne aren duund arundel pd prob area beefing up the kilo cases around the site. >> this just in to cnn, one patient received at the university of maryland medical center from this annapolis shooting. the active shooter situation still going on. that's according to the director of media relations for the hospital. no

and so, we went to the government and we asked for antitrust enforcement, because antitrust enforcement had been effective in our industry against at&t and against ibm, but we were met by a number of arguments, very similar to the arguments you hear from google apologists today, i suppose. we heard that antitrust wasn't equipped to deal with high-tech. we heard that enforcement in antitrust would kill innovation. we heard, actually, that consumers were benefiting from microsoft's conduct, because as you heard, microsoft was literally giving its product, the browser, away free. i don't mean the way google gives products away free, namely, in exchange for your privacy information which they can use to sell ads. microsoft was literally giving its product away free. and just like today, we got the ftc to open an investigation of microsoft's conduct, and they didn't do anything. but we did have some allies like senator hatch. and as a result of his hearings and other things, the doj took over the investigation of microsoft, and the government brought a case and won. the bush administration s

law enforce. has not confirmed the shooting happened inside the newspaper offices, but we know from the reporters at the paper say the shooting happened inside their office. we're going off of those reports for that information. at this time, this is always preliminary information. this is always information that is subject to change. we don't have any reports of confirmed fatalities. there have been some reports that there are -- have been some deaths as a result of the shooting. at this point we don't have that confirmed. i just talked to the public spokesperson for the ems just a few minutes ago and he said that at this point he hadn't had any confirmed fatalities reported to him. we know that the suspect is believed to be a white male and that that suspect is in custody. as far as what weapon that suspect had, we don't have that information confirmed yet. a little bit of some conflicting reporting there so we're going to stay away from that for now. and as far as any other information about th

we would accept these folks and then now enforce our border enforce our laws.f course, we see even at the border today, they're not really enforced. what the two of you are advocating for -- >> i'm not advocating for anything. >> don't -- >> let me talk. you can tell me where i'm wrong. but what i'm hearing is you're saying don't separate the adult from the child. which means you don't adjudicate the adult. >> that's not true. >> what the trump administration is saying is when you come here illegally, you will be prosecuted and to do anything else than that is to simply not follow the law. that gets us into the amnesty problem. >> asylum seekers were never included. they're coming under different pretense. and you're saying we assume they're not real. >> 80% of them are not -- >> i don't know where that number livers. until we know -- >> we don't know -- >> nina, what's your take? >> again, listen, it's funny how matt and the president, you want to bring president obama any other time president trump would not be following president obama. he needs to do the ri

his aggressive law enforcement for consumer protection, environmental stewardship, rights and personal privacy has helped shape the roles of state attorneys general nationwide and resulted in the recovery of hundreds of millions of dollars for connecticut taxpayers and consumers each year. as attorney general, he was a key player in the national fight against big tobacco. helped lead a coalition of all 50 states that culminated in historic agreements with social networking sites to better protection children from internet predators, advocated for reforms in the health insurance industry to assure critical healthcare coverage and low pharmaceutical drug prize and worked relentlessly to eradicate corruption in state government and make state contracting accountable, fair, honest and transparent. he was also one of the 20 state attorneys general to file a lawsuit against microsoft in 1998 alleging market power abuse. speaking about the lawsuit, then attorney general blumenthal said our actions seek today for market to siphoning innovation and short-changing consumers. what we're saying to

we need more enforcement -- competition enforcement on entry and issues around entry because that's the place you're going to get competition, not in the market with a duopoly or whatever. >> but often when you look at examples, but a lot of that new entry comes from competition that occurs on the platform, and so a lot of conduct that's often being raised is well, you know, can the platform owner harm somebody who is competing on the platform when they are competing on their own platform? and it seems like that conflict of interest often is what people are complaining about. >> right. >> which is really where the new entry is likely to take place. >> okay. but often that new entry is capable of upending the platform. look at microsoft. look at i would say the eu ice android case, so there i think you're safe with going back to the microsoft reasoning and using it, saying this is really entry for, you know, upending the platform, or that the -- that the lock-in switching cost, the economic power of the platform, yeah. >> well, i wish we could have a little bit more time, but really appr

go to law enforcement. i also want to say that i completely understand why any survivor, collegor not, would not want to go. look at the prosecution rates. look at the conviction rates. the survivor bill of rights is written particularly to cover all survivors, college survivors, or noncollege survivors. these civil rights are meant truly to be codifying for everyone so that everyone is equal under the law. i do look forward to working with you and your office on this because i do care about this a lot as someone who was raped at my college. i thinkrews: what we are talking about here is the colts of masculinity. when you're talking -- cult of masculinity. -- in itself -- when you're talking about people in power, judges, police officers, even people on campus who are teachers who protect each other in regards to creating a culture that is not safe. up the way i bring to battle this kind of culture is again, accountability. every time. when people see that they can get away with it, they try it. whenthey kn

one of the most meaningful moments to me has been when law enforcement officers and the law enforcement community have welcomed the opportunity to talk about this issue. obviously there are people out there who could do better on this issue. however, our experience at rise has been that we and we invite people to come to the table to have an honest discussion about how we all can do better, it has yielded the best results. us, when the massachusetts, when my civil rights were passed and signed into law by governor baker, there was a surprise article that law enforcement officers in massachusetts welcomed the standard operating procedures. i understand that the law enforcement community has many different roles, and that having standard operating procedures like in the survivors' bill of rights for law enforcement community only helps them do their jobs better. we are all, both survivors, the innocence defense committee at the loft was a community looking for the same thing, which is truth and acts of injustice. >> thank you for the question, senator. when my assault happened, quite hone

according to a law enforcement source. the shooter was found apparently with no i.d. on him. according to one source telling cnn the shooting occurred in the newsroom of "capital gazette" here in annapolis and law enforcement not giving many details on that. we do know five fatalities. multiple people wounded. the shooter at least initially, wolf, did not cooperate and another key piece of information tonight that we just learned from law enforcement and city officials here in anal lis is that this shooting appeared to have been interrupted by police. multiple law enforcement officials telling us that police got here within about 60 seconds after the shooting began. and that apparently something was -- something happened to interrupt that shooting. they would not give details of that and not about whether gun fire was exchanged between law enforcement an and t and the sh. but it was interrupted with law enforcement. wolf? >> brian, stand by. i know you're getting more information. it's been almost two hours since this inci

we're law enforcement officers. we'll enforce the laws enacted by congress. they took a sworn oath to uphold the law and this president is allowing them to do the job. and you say they show up in court. last year the immigration court issued 40,000 removal orders in absentia -- >> but you used to have discretion before april on when to take the little kids away from moms and dads and now you don't. >> we still have discretion. our officers have discretion every day. >> but in the last few weeks more than 2,000 of these kids have been separated from their parents. i think 2300 is the number we received today. >> so what do they have to do? if the parents don't want to be separated from children, enter through a port of entry through the legal system. when you choose intentionally to violate the laws and enter illegally, you put yourself in that position -- >> but -- >> you put your child in that position so you want to blame somebody -- >> but if you -- >> if you want to blame somebody, blame the parents -- >> i understand what you are saying but you did have

he was trying to evade law enforcement.e was hiding in the building and we found him. >> do you know where he was hiding? >> my understanding is that he was found under a desk. >> he was found underneath a desk with his long gun still on him? >> my understanding is that the weapon was on the ground and not in his immediate proximity. >> was he in the newsroom of the newspaper? >> i'm sorry? >> was he in the newsroom of the "capital gazette" newspaper? >> we're not confirming that. he was in the office building which houses the "capital gazette" newspaper. we have not revealed the identities of the victims. four died in the offices. one was evacuated to university of maryland shock trauma and was treated there but unfortunately despite immense effort the individual did not survive. >> the anne arundel county executive. phil mudd, what does it say that they captured this guy as he was hiding underneath a desk at that newspaper? >> it tells me a lot about what his mental state was going into the operation. if you look at some

enforcement system looks at merger enforcement, both traditional horizontal mergers, like the sprint-t-mobile deal that was announced, and also vertical mergers. you know, traditionally, josh is right. there has been a lot of deference given how vertical mergers can create efficiency. if you put two complementary assets together, the companies can better coordinate the assets and eliminate the extra markup that would have been paid had they just gone out to source that from a stand-alone company. but increasingly, there's skepticism about those types of efficiencies. in fact, that is embedded in a bigger debate nowadays over the importance of antitrust. and in promoting competition, and promoting consumer welfare. i think everybody is familiar with the debate. we have some very strong indicators of declining competition in the united states, growing inequality gaps, lower market entry. and the reality is over the last 30 years, we have had very relaxed enforcement. there have been a tremendous amount of horizontal and vertical consolidation. the mergers that we are seeing , these vertical mer

why are they not being enforced? not being enforced. why are they not being enforced ?are they not being enforced? is there no political will or the local government units to enforce this because there is corruption involved? there is no evidence of corruption but this is about remote areas and also a very deregulated industry. a lot of these boats are just operating out of necessity because people need to move between these islands, they are not registered correctly, and —— and they are not having the income or they are not having the income or the financial incentive from passengers to demand this kind of safety. some of the survivors we spoke to say they just accepted the fa ct spoke to say they just accepted the fact they were sitting in the aisle and there wasn't a lifejacket. there is that level of questioning for safety that you might have on other countries. recently, icame safety that you might have on other countries. recently, i came back from the thousand islands on a speedboat we ended up outside, sitting on the floor in bad weather and they also counted ar

there were 300 law enforcement officers on that scene yesterday. 300 law enforcement officers from thepolice department, the anne arundel county sheriff's office, maryland state police, howard county police department, maryland transportation authority police, department of maryland, department of natural resources police, annapolis fire and bomb squad, prince george's county police department, montgomery county, maryland, started to send us help, bwi fire and rescue services came. the nsa police came. the fbi was as always a very present help in times of trouble. the bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms gave us a large amount of help. nsa came to help. the united states secret service came to help. and the postal inspectors came to help, whether they were helping us direct traffic, whether they were bringing water to cops who were dehydrated or whether they helped us go in that building and save people's lives, every cop from all those agencies was a part of how we saved people's lives yesterday. i thank them from the bottom of my heart for the anne arundel county police department

they want to enforce the law. what they mean is that if you cross illegally, then we are going to go through the process of deportation. the law that blocks -- that creates this problem is a law that says that you can't keep minors together with their parents and detain them jointly and remove them jointly. you can't do that. because of this -- >> you can't keep minors in the condition you can keep adults. and you can't keep them as long. >> well, you also, because of this law they passed several years ago to protect children who were being smuggled, they can't be -- a family unit can't be kept together and deported together. that's the problem. >> that's not what the flores agreement says. there is no law that mandates you do what you're doing right now. in fact -- >> i agree with that. the difference is that -- >> the conditions may have sucked, but at least they got to stay together. you could keep these families together. or you could do catch and release and you could do it a different way. this is why bush a

and the president is simply enforcing them. reporter: how is it moral policy to take children away from their parents? sarah: it's a moral policy to follow and enforce the law. reporter: when they come across the border, they're with their parents and suddenly they're pulled away from their parents. why is the government doing this? sarah: because it's the law and that's what the law states. reporter: you don't have to do that. sarah: you're right, it doesn't have to be the law and the president cunald democrats in congress to fix those loopholes. the democrats have failed to come to the table, failed to help the president close these loopholes and fix this problem. we don't want this to be a problem. the president tried to address it a number of occasions, we laid out a proposal and democrats simply refuse to do their job and fix the problem. sorry, jim. i've given you enough times. reporter: there is no law that requires families be separated at the border. this is the administration's choice. to move from civil matters on im

enforcement. that: what is the theory you think he rejected? diana: we think about horizontal mergers with head-to-head mergers. it pairs of inputs with distribution. pairing of content with his generation. mergers, even though they put together, mentoring assets, they can still have horizontal effects in markets. the government's concern was that because of at&t's market with time warner, they would have enhanced incentives to make it difficult for rival distributors, whether they be cable distributors or direct broadcast distributors to get time warner content. that would make it more difficult for them to compete and caused them to raise prices. it would hamper the competition. the company would have more bargaining leverage with their rightful distributors after the merger. basing his findings on her projecting her stand evidence from participants in the market. rejecting the economic models. wright, what do you think of the legal arguments? portionshere are some but i agree with, but let me s

most of it has been lack of enforcement, going back to 1938, little enforcement of it. you said it is a top priority of yours. i am glad. we need to get additional legislation. senator blumenthal? just second the sentiment expressed by the chairman that what has been lacking in many of these areas is enforcement. you have said you do not need new tools. i would submit enforcement has been abysmal. this is a bipartisan failure. it is not meant to be critical of you as officials but the chairman is right that enforcement has been lacking. you,e begin by asking there is no doubt in your mind, is there, that russia interfered or sought to interfere with the 2016 elections? mr. hickey: no sir. mr. masterson: no, sir. in fact, russia attacked the united states of america. a committed an act of war. i have made this statement. will continue, will it not, unless the united states makes russia pay a price? mr. hickey: it warrants a strong response. ways to --find it is not only: a matter of protecting our systems but also deterring that attack byroactively making russia pay a pr
