we're doing it with greta, we're doing it with netflix.change the world overnight. let's make this a success. we'll see where it goes from there. liz: okay, you've gotten calls but said just hold off for the moment? i mean, what if somebody, obviously disney has star wars, if there's another star wars movie and come to you, the director comes to you, right now you would say not yet? i'm not going to go to bob iger? >> well, i think being more specific with netflix, i'd say you have to talk to netflix and if they're happy doing it, we're happy doing it. and our philosophy is i want them to look good and us all to make money. the question you asked before, i want to help create a global event out of it so it does well in imax and does really well on netflix. liz: we've got so many movies coming up: captain america on february 13th, july superman and next iteration for that, wicked for good, part two and that's that was a huge hit and there's so many opportunities further down the line of movies in the incipient stages; right, where people ar

greta: some of those bills are on your wall. >> some of those are on your wall. why is it important for you to display them on your wall? are there some that stand out to you as the most significant of your career? rep. eshoo: this office belongs to the people of my district. so many of them have come across the country, families with their children. i want them to see the work. when they see, they always ask questions for you that they want to know which president signed each one. they study them. they learn their signatures. each one has a deep meaning. it has had an impact on not only my constituents and their lives, but the lives of the american people. i think that the affordable care act is one that has now reached some 45 million people. 45 million people. i think that something like 15 million, 14 million people or 15 million people in the state of california. these are all individuals and families that, for one reason or another, did not have any health insurance. so, this is a godsend and then. it really is. it was a hard-fought battle. there were both

that's not what we want to have, greta. we want to have a competitive tax code that encourages businesses to stay in america, to innovate in america, and grow in america. and we have to be competitive on the tax side, but i think jenny does bring up a good point when we say, hey, listen, we should actually know what corporations are paying. and when you have a massive tax code that's incredibly difficult to navigate over generations, the powerful interests around the country have come to washington and carved portions of their profits out of the tax code. so we really don't know whatso we re't corporations are paying. i think we need to streamline the code, make it far simpler, and so we know what we know what everyone's paying in every income bracket, and we know what corporations are paying as well instead of a complex code that no one can figure out. host: house and senate republicans, democrats have said they've been left out of this negotiating process over a 2016 budget blueprint. but a deal on the table and the house

they want to help people out, but they want to help people who are also helping themselves, greta. and it's important then that if if folks are on the system and they're not and they're not working to get off because they're doing drugs. i think we have to analyze. what do we do as as american taxpayers to say we're willing to, but we're not willing to subsidize a standard that's never going to get you out of these are out of the out of the hole of entitlements. my one concern, though, is what to do about kids. if you have kids in the home, all of a sudden a drug abusing parent and a lack of food on the table, that hurts the kids in the home and how you split that, i'm not quite sure. well, and tell our viewers, tell that caller in our viewers what percentage of the budget is welfare and these type of payments? it is a smaller percentage, but 1%. yeah. the exact percent. i'm not i can't telegraph that in my head, but even on the reform front, it becomes challenging with entitlements. we had a conversation in in the farm bill that a year ago, a year and a half ago, where we had said

greta wetzel, greta, thank you for joining us.oughout this disaster. can you tell us a little bit more about what your organization is doing for folks on the ground? >> yeah, absolutely. thank you so much for having me this morning. >> save the children has been working in disasters since hurricane katrina, and we are here in los angeles ensuring that the most urgent needs of children are being met, that they have the supplies and the those those tangible things that they need right now, as well as setting up for that long term support, getting them back into learning and play stations, as well as starting to think about how we can help support, address and address their mental health needs going forward. >> all of that really impactful. and i think the point you make about the short term versus the long term is really important. so in the short term, what are the tangible needs right now on the ground? >> you know those are all evolving. still we're still trying to understand where where are our children going? where are they goi

it ended up being a good decision to to entitle since the operations 6 months ago shalom greta has been seizure free. she comes to the hospital for regular checkups to monitor the effects of the surgery. so how are you doing in best and my concentration is improved and i'm not having as many headaches, so things are going pretty well. fish. glad to hear it. we did an e g exam, so you can see here quite clearly. this is the left side where you have the surgery and everything looks normal. blue is the right, black is the left and both sides look exactly the same. a great results with no epileptic spikes and 100 by enough distribution. and then we tested your memory into the here the results are, these are the test as for how well you remember words. and there was no change compared to before the surgery. ok, 2 for the next one is max out know mine eyes every day. life is a lot easier now, ma'am. it's nice, it's more relaxed. joyful and i have a lot more hope these days. i'm not always waiting for the next seizure. i've already gotten used to not having them anymore. now. she'll continue t

you can see that play out, like greta said.oday, the swearing in for newly elected and reelected senators. approximately one third of the senate, as it currently stands -- they will establish the precedent does the presence of a quorum. they will also agree to debate when bills and joint resolutions may begin to be introduced as part of their legislative process. and they will elect a new president pro-trump or. that comes from the chance that if the senate sits in the absence of a vice president. that position was originally conceived as a temporary replacement. the new senate will nominate a republican from iowa. with john thune now being the senate majority leader, fox news has excerpts from his first speech that he will present later today. he says one of my priorities as leader will be to ensure that the senate stays the senate. that means preserving the legislative filibuster, which has perhaps the greatest impact, preserving the founder's vision of the senate. and preserving the senate as a place of discussion and libera

just to give you a little picture, greta, president biden alone in four years spent $5 trillion in additional borrowing . that is more than three times the 10 year costs of the tax cuts and jobs act. much of that spending was to benefit his special interest allies like the green energy movement, labor unions. tax cuts and jobs act simply allowed americans to keep more of their money and create economic opportunity. the government is badly in need of spending cuts, but raising taxes is not how to address it. host: compared to the spending and the trump first term? >> we have been critical of overspending from both parties. biden, trump, -- sec. leavitt: good to

good afternoon, greta. mr. boston. just want to say that he's absent from the body, present with the lord. and i feel like he's a fellow brother in the lord. i think there hadn't been a born again president probably since truman. the previous presidents i think should take a note of this -- this very nice send off that you are doing here on c-span. and definitely obama should take a note of his moral -- president carter's moral character. and he was part of the greatest generation. host: gregory, do you remember did his born again christian beliefs have an impact on you? do you remember that about him? caller: yes. yes. definitely. here over the past week here learning his grandkids. he only had black friends hroeg growing up in that little town. as a fellow christian, true christian, i'm not a church person, but a person that's born again, i reflect on that and how mr. boston had mentioned about how he wasn't part of the world, you should say, and how he had a commitment to peace in the middle east. how i learned over

. >> good morning, greta. i hope you give me a couple minutes. to get a couple of things off my chest. this is my opportunity. host: is it on the economy and what the second of trump administration can do here? >> yes ma'am. if you show a little patience, please. to all of my fellow americans, congratulations. you have just sold out our country, our democracy, and our constitution. basically over the price of eggs, bacon, and gas. look at how far we have fallen as a country. we have lost our decency and morality. we have become a selfless -- shellfish and uncaring nation. whatever happened to our christian principles? it was a sacrilege to call trump our messiah. one day we will have to answer to our creator. to those republicans thinking they would lower the price of food, housing, and health care, you were conned again. all they wanted was your vote at the ballot box. they have shown time and again they are incapable of governing. the only meaningful legislation they ever passed is to have massive tax cuts to their wealthy billionaire donors an

america's political greta garbo, which thought was really interested. and i was like really? but, you know, i'm 54. i'm so young, you know, 54. and i, you i grew up i was very young when the nixons were in office. so i really came upon this as sort of a blank. i did not know mrs. nixon, but something about that mysterious, enigmatic did not ring true to me. it needed some more excavation. and so this book is really kind of a deconstruction of that mysterious image, media image, which is really not at all true. she isn't really mysterious at all, but she was made that way. i think the media and also by the fact she was a very private person. she didn't like to make a show of herself that was sort of anathema to her to be talking about herself, you know, praising herself. that was very not the way she was. so it was very hard for her to be in the spotlight and take praise, for instance, or to her and as we might say. she wanted to let her work speak for itself. i think. don't you? exactly. i think, yes. and she said many things about that, that you know, my active things that i

greta is the health reporter and she has the list for the top diets. >> happy new year. >> you work thehat did you find? >> a top rated three diets for best overall are the mediterranean diet, d.a. s.h. diet and the flexitarian diet. you find similarities. they don't require complicated rules. no calorie counting. they are largely plant based. the first one is the top rated mediterranean. a long-time winner. based on or inspired by the cuisine of greece and plant based. red meat and sweets, keep those for special occasions. the dash diet stands for dietary approach to stop hypertension. it is, again, a plant-based diet. it imposes stricter rules on sodium intake and sugary foods as well as fried and fatty foods. the third is a flexitarn. think of it as a super vegetarian diet. this is a diet you can start in baby steps. add a little more veggie and less meat. >> it requires a lot of stretching. flexitarian. >> you are welcome to stretch. >> i know you look at certain health conditions or problems that people have because not every diet is perfect for everyone. what did you find? >> we e

caller: greta, you should be for everybody. you always agree with the democrats.ou always agree with the democrats, not with the republican. i don't understand that. why do you do that? that is not fair. host: how am i agreeing? caller: you are agreeing with democrats when democrats are with joe biden and all of this, and you always full up trump's mistakes. he is not convicted. you put that he is convicted. he has never been convicted. you cannot put that he is convicted. host: i mentioned that very thing just a little bit ago. peary in montgomery, alabama. democratic caller. caller: good morning c-span and the c-span audience. i keep hearing republicans talk about the justice system is unfair. if you are african-american the justice system has been unfair for years in this country. should we not say the same thing? that it is unfair for this country, the people judging these folks because that we know they have been -- if donald trump cannot get a fair trial in this country, how can an african-american get a fair trial? host: the president-elect sentencing heari

northwestern george christopher it's a great name that i'm going to mangle is really interesting what greta's maps of homicides and what you discover is that homicides are incredibly tightly clustered in very specific social circles, and that if so, he makes his maps arrest maps. so you and i are arrested for crime. a gun crime. so we're connected on this social map. if you're shot by a by somebody, my of either shooting someone getting shot goes up seven fold. the contagion per connected you get shot i get infected so if i see if you map it all out and you see there's cluster of homicides over here and it involves 20 people in a gang on the side of chicago that's where you put your police resources you don't wasted on the 50,000 other people in the general area and now in new york starts to do that a very systematic way and social cost of that kind of policing, a fraction of stop and frisk. the community actually, that's kind of policing. they want because they know those clusters. right. so that's what happens in the second half of the crime decline. and that's incredibly important. you kno
