. >> now, senator hirono. sen. hirono: mr. browder, you have given us a first-hand insight into putin's russia. your pop -- you are responsible for the passing of the magnitsky act. i thank you and i thank you for your courage in appearing today also. russia's interference with our 2016 of election and the connection with the trump campaign is a tangled web, to say the least. how important do you think it is to our democracy that the mother investigation continues, free from political pressure from the president? mr. browder: i believe, based on intelligence reports, that russians did hack the election. it is crucial to understand, if there was any assistance from any american citizen in doing that. it is crucial. sen. hirono: does it come as a surprise to you that russian interests were collecting compromising information on someone? for example, candidate trump, to gain control over that person? mr. browder: vladimir putin is a former kgb agent. as i said, there is no such thing as a former kgb agent, there are only present

hirono: thank you. we're furring -- we were referring to the russian efforts to veselnitskaya's efforts repeal or weekend the magnitsky act. how does that interfere with the 2016 election? mr. browder: it is not clear to me how them two are exactly related. we know what they wanted, which was to have the magnitsky act repealed. thought the probability of that was higher with their preferred candidate, then with of their less preferred candidate. i am not 100% certain they would have made the same attempt with the democratic candidate, hillary clinton, if there was any opening or receptively there. the russians are nonpartisan when it comes to interference in russian -- u.s. policy and affairs. they would gladly talk to, try to bribe and blackmail anybody. describe a: you scenario or environment in which they are totally ruthless and china achieved there and. someone,ed weakness in they will go after that person and figure out how to gain leverage over that person. after you contacted the department of j

hirono, for permitting me to go first. good afternoon, mr. ray. thank you for your willingness to serve and your family's. i want to ask you a couple of questions, and hope that you can give me answers that are as straight forward as you can, given the limitations of your position. in your view, is obstruction of justice a serious crime? >> absolutely. >> is your view that lying to the fbi is a serious crime? >> absolutely. >> and both should be investigated vigorously if there is evidence that they occurred? >> yes. >> to your knowledge, is there evidence that there has been perjury or obstruction of justice in connection with the investigation into russian interference in our elections 2016? >> i don't have knowledge to that effect, senator. but i think special counsel muller would have jurisdiction over that. >> and the reason that he's investigating is because there is sufficient evidence to warrant a special counsel, as i advocated, at the very beginning of rod rosen stein's appointment, and ultimately he agreed to do

to have followed two other extraordinarily distinguished members of this body, senators murray and hirono, to focus these concerns regarding mr. bush's approach to the question of women's health care and constitutionally guaranteed reproductive rights under the fourth amendment. let me note at the outset that our republican colleagues have referred to a letter of support for mr. bush from someone who is on the board of the kentucky planned parenthood affiliate. that letter in no way represents the position of the organization as a whole. in fact, the president of planned parenthood of indiana and kentucky has stated that mre independence and temperament necessary for a federal judgeship, end quote. that's the position of the president of planned parenthood for indiana and kentucky. he, quote, lacks the independence and temperament necessary for a federal judgeship. the issue of a woman's right to make decisions about when she becomes pregnant and whether she has an abortion is a constitutionally guaranteed protected right of every woman, regardless of where she lives and what her backgrou

that is going there, hirono, and the rest of the british team.e the parents shouldn't be in this first meeting because they may not be able to speak freely with the parents there. at that point you had the mother shaking her head in court saying, no, i understand what's going on. what would -- do you see, in any way that the parents should or should not be in that meeting? >> right. from my perspective as working with children, think as a parent if your child is in the hospital and you are excluded from a meeting that has to do with the health of your child who is terminally ill. to me that, is appalling, right? in the united states you're going to say, no, it's my child. i have a right to be there and i'm going to be there, no matter what. from that perspective, the right thing to do is let the parents be there. >> we'll see if that happens. we know that dr. hirono is there, meeting with the baby and the british team tomorrow. we'll certainly keep you posted. ashley, thank you. >> thank you for having me this morning. >> absolutely. >>> victor?

senator hirono thanks for joining us. >> thank you. look through the eyes of isis wives and mothers members of the terror group. are they willing supporters or innocent bystanders? we'll hear dramatic stories, right after the break. [car tires screech] [bell rings] a trip back to the dthe doctor's office, mean just for a shot. but why go back there, when you can stay home... ...with neulasta onpro? strong chemo can put you at risk of serious infection. neulasta helps reduce infection risk by boosting your white blood cell count, which strengthens your immune system. in a key study, neulasta reduced the risk of infection from 17% to 1%... ...a 94% decrease. applied the day of chemo, neulasta onpro is designed to deliver neulasta the next day. neulasta is for certain cancer patients receiving strong chemotherapy. do not take neulasta if you're allergic to neulasta or neupogen (filgrastim). ruptured spleen, sometimes fatal as well as serious lung problems, allergic reactions, kidney injuries, and capillary leak syndrome have occurred. rep

senator hirono. >> thank you, mr. chairman. >> thank you very much, mr. chairman. getting back to the meeting that you had at the white house regarding your nomination, president trump was there. can you tell us who else was there from the administration? >> i had two meetings. the first was the president, the vice president, the white house counsel, and then a couple people from the justice department. the second meeting was the president, the president's chief of staff, the white house counsel and again some people from the department, including deputy attorney general rod rosenstein. >> when was the first meeting? do you recall? >> the first meeting was the day after memorial day. it was publicly reported, as i understand. >> and neither one of these meetings did the issue of the russia investigation, mueller or the comey firing came up. >> correct. >> so what did the president say to you in the first meeting, and what did he say to you in the second meeting? >> both -- both meetings, senator, were very conversational, about my bio, my background. i talked about

it's unconscionable. >> senator hirono, thanks for joining us.ant to show viewers live pictures coming in from long island. i think this is ronkonkoma, rhode island. the president heading shortly to deliver a speech, a speech on the ms-13 gangs that are out there. live pictures coming in from, from the -- this is -- these are pictures that just, from moments ago of air force one landing at the long island macarthur airport. the president will be delivering the remarks shortly. we'll have live coverage of that coming up. we'll take a quick break. much more coming up, including the white house communications chief calling the white house chief of staff a paranoid schizophrenic. that's the only part i want to discuss right now on tv. a lot of the other words a lot, a lot more profane, i should say. our panel is getting ready to weigh in on this latest saga. stay with us. people would stare. psoriasis does that. it was tough getting out there on stage. i wanted to be clear. i wanted it to last. so i kept on fighting. i found something that worked. an

hirono: -- reporter: a follow-up, your intelligence agencies have been more definitive and say it was russia. why won't you agree with them and say it was? president trump: let me start off by saying, i heard it was 17 agencies, i said that is a lot, do we have that many intelligence agencies? let's check it. we did some very heavy research and it turned out to be three or four. it wasn't 17. many of your compatriots had to change the reporting and had to apologize or correct. with that being said, mistakes have been made. i agree, i think it was russia but i think it was probably other people and/or countries. i see nothing wrong with that statement. nobody really knows. nobody really knows for sure. i remember when i was sitting listening about iraq. weapons of mass destruction. how everybody was 100% sure that iraq had weapons of mass destruction. guess what? that led to one big mess. they were wrong and it led to a mess. so, it was russia, and i think was probably others also. that has been going on for a long time. my big question is, why did obama do nothing about it from august

hirono: thank you. madam president, it is unconscionable that the united states senate will soon be voting on a measure that would force between 22 million and 32 million people to lose their health insurance. this vote is particularly unconscionable when you consider that each member of this chamber has high-quality health insurance that will be there whenever we need it, and we all will as i certainly found out. i know as well as anyone that we are all one diagnosis away from a serious illness. when i was diagnosed with kidney cancer not too longing a, i had the piece of mind of knowing -- not too long ago, i had the piecpeace of mind of knowing thi had health insurance. many have found comfort in having high-quality health insurance as they confront serious illnesses and injuries of their own. every american deserves that same piece of mind. that's why i'm fighting for universal health care that's a right for every american, not a privilege reserved only for those hock afford it. this is something we

then under the two hour rule -- senator hirono. >> thank you. despite conducting significant lobbying on russian interests donald trump's former adviser flynn and manafort only filed after the activities were disclosed. doesn't that undermine the purpose of fara? >> good morning, senator. unfortunately, i can't comment on particular cases. what i will say is we do our level best to identify conduct through whatever source we can and act on it by sending either a voluntary letter of inquiry. >> so regardless of whether you can't comment on the particulars i'm getting to the delay in registering under fara and i'm wondering whether a delay in registering at some point can amount to a willful violation of fara? >> i think that's a -- that's a good question, senator. the statute makes clear that if you register late that does not procollude a prosecution. certainly the goal of the statute is to ensure that agents register immediately essentially upon becoming agents or principals. when ten days that's -- within ten days. >> perhaps need to strengthe

hirono: mr. president. the presiding officer: the senator from hawaii. ms. hirono: mr. president, it's been spoken so many times now against the repeal of the affordable care act which would hurt millions and millions of people in our country and especially the sickest, poorest, and oldest among us. i would say that i am probably the only senator here who was not born in a hospital. i was born at home in rural japan. i lost a sister to pneumonia when she was only 2 years old in japan. she died at home. not in a hospital where maybe her life could have been saved. it's hard for me to talk about this. i think you can tell. give me a moment. when i came to this country as an immigrant, my mother brought me and my brothers to this country so we could have a chaps at a better life. we came here with nothing. she had low-paying jobs. there was no health coverage. growing up as a young girl in hawaii, my greatest fear was that my mother would get sick, and if she got sick, how were we going to pay for her care? how would she go to work? and if she didn't go to work, there woul

hirono, no. mr. blumenthal, no. mr. king, no. mr. peters, no. ms. heitkamp, no. ms. warren. >> so you're hearing a lot of no's, a lot of democrats' names there being called out but here's the headline. the senate has enough votes to advance the health care bill. we saw senator mccain come in and he was a yes. we were talking about senator johnson. he is a yes. and so they have enough votes to pass this procedural vote to then open with debate. gloria borger is joining us here as we're watching all of this and we've also got the little camera on the rose garden there in the white house. i'll take that. thank you. and so we're waiting for the president to speak with the lebanese prime minister, but as we do that, this is significant because this has been a yes so far but again, it's been mind boggling for a lot of people who have been covering washington a long time saying they voted yes to open debate but the debate, no one really knows what they're debating. >> right. so what they're doing -- and let me just remark upon that moment when john mccain walked in the cham

>> i suspect, and this goes back to senator hirono, there are lots of things you have to learn in terms of navigating the department of defense. it would be through the technical leadership or service secretary. i'm quite confident that when we do have a solution that we will be able to communicate it. it's going to be how quickly do we actually get the solution incorporated into the airplane mark that will really be about acquisition and getting these things on contract, that's the most important thing we have to do. >> i appreciate it, thank you for your time, thank you mr. chairman. >> thank you mister chairman and mister shanahan, thank you for being here today. my questions relate to the future of warfare and how we will be preparing for a rapidly changing battle space . senator reid asked you a question about the third offset strategy in which as you know secretary of defense Ãcarter introduced an overtime move, the process to take advantage of incredible advances in the commercial sector and i think that's something that has changed pretty dramatically in recent years is that mos

, stabenow, durbin, widen, -- wyden, murphy, warren, gillibrand, cardin, klobuchar, heinrich, hir hirono, peters, warner as cosponsors. i want to extend a thank you to senator bob casey of pennsylvania. senator casey has been a tireless advocate for protecting the medicaid program and the critical services that it provides, not just to the people of pennsylvania, but to millions of americans across our beloved country. senator casey has done incredible work to remind all americans of the important role medicaid plays in our communities and the millions of children, families, students, and seniors who have coverage through medicaid. my motion is simple. it would send this bill back to the finance committee to get the consideration it never received, and it would require the committee to strike provisions that reduce or eliminate benefits for those currently eligible for medicaid. it prevents states from expanding medicaid or shift costs to states to cover that care. in my state of indiana, we've seen the success of a bipartisan approach, a bipartisan approach to expanding the medicaid pro

another collect on the armed service committee who sits next to me at every committee hearing, senator hirono, who announced she had kidney cancer and is and what surgery. i was chatting with her earlier tonight. i don't mind these -- she's worried about it just like senator mccain would be. this touches everyone. it touches the powerful pick it touches the powerless. touches the wealthy that it touches the poor. it touches name. it touches women. it touches the young and the old. it touches everyone. and the way we treat people who are sick, the way we treat people who are anxious about their health and the way we treat the creator that's what we are taught. so let's live up to that standard. why would we do otherwise? why are we here? why did we run? why do we serve? what do people expect of us? i was sick and you cared for me. i was sick and you visited me. i was sick and you looked after me. i was sick and you took care of me. is it that hard? is it so important to rush it through and not have hearings and not have committees and not engage the democrats and not listen to the people sleep

. >> now it's senator hirono. >> thank you, mr. chairman. mr. browder, you have given us the firsthand insight into putin's russia. you're directly responsible for the passage of the magnitsky act and i thank you. i join my colleagues in thanking for your courage in appearing today. russia's interference with our election and connections to the trump campaign is a tangled web to say the least. how important do you think it is to our democracy that the mueller investigation continues free from political pressure from the president? >> of course, it's -- i believe based on the intelligence reports that the russians did hack the election and it's crucial to understand if there was any assistance on any part of any american citizen in doing that. so it's crucial. >> does it come as a surprise to you that russian interests were to collect compromising information on someone like candidate trump to gain leverage over that person? >> so the russian -- so vladimir putin is a former kgb agent as i said there's no such thing as a former kgb agent. there's
