president trump defended white nationalist demonstrators yesterday, republican representative will hurdtexas called on trump to apologize, saying "racism, bigotry, anti-semitism of any form is unacceptable, and the leader of the free world should be unambiguous." oh, i think she is. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] while president trump fielded questions yesterday about charlottesville, white house chief of staff john kelly was seen staring at the ground with his arms crossed. and after hearing the press conference, so was the statue of liberty. laughter and applause ] when asked yesterday about his confidence in chief adviser and accused white nationalist steve bannon, president trump said "we'll see what happens." this is how much trump cares about ratings. he ended a press conference on a cliffhanger. [ light laughter ] will steve bannon lose his job? will mike pence and his wife finally go all the way? find out tomorrow on "as the world burns."

a very different tone adopted by the policing minister nick hurd. british pr firm in south africa. the report says bell pottinger spread inaccurate and misleading information when contracted to work for the gupta brothers, a controversial family with close links to presidentjacob zuma. james henderson, the ceo of bell pottinger, resigned at the weekend, in anticipation of today‘s findings. our media editor amol rajan is here. not perhaps a story that people might be familiar with. it's a complex story but one that really matters. there is a hugely controversial set of south african brothers duhail from india, controversial set of south african brothers duhailfrom india, called the gupta brothers. they have massive conglomerate that spreads from mining to media. they are accused of rampant corruption, which they deny. they hired a british pr firm to look after their reputation. they did it through a company that they earned. it seems that bell pottinger have been up to some mischief in using modern methods to improve the reputation of the gupta broth

so i'm wondering if you see his opposition as being a key if not the key hurd. and whether you think there's any type of possibility in the political compromise between chairman thornberry and chairman mccain in the armed services. >> i think there is room for a compromise. you know, as lucien indicated, the idea of capping the upfront costs or at least scaling it in some way that congress can then control. so maybe they can set a cath and if the department came back to say you gave us $8 to $10 trillion in the long run, we can do more useful stuff and congress can revisit that number. but i think the idea of setting some kind of an ability for congress to have some measure of control over how much they're putting in in terms of the upfront costs and ongoing costs, i think that is the basic grounds for compromise on that issue. i know it can be, it could be very limiting depending on how it's written and how hard of a cap it has made, but it's a ground for a reasonable compromise between the two sides on that issue. i didn't mean to imply that i think chairman t

hurd: the good folks of houston, rockport and the rest of the gulf coast did not face this devastating storm alone. among the many helping hands that were lent to the rescue and helping fellow texans were those in san antonio. they worked to prepare for the storm and shifted the disaster response along the gulf coast. given san antonio's geographic location within the state, the e.o.c. has become a crucial disaster response point for the state of texas. it provided critical round the clock support to local and statewide efforts in the days and weeks following the hurricane. these efforts, along with other private companies and nonprofit partners have been nothing short but remarkable. through the donations, san tonio came out to show their support. i was humble to witness a few of these selfless acts firsthand. i'm proud of my hometown's swift response to our fellow texans in need. i commend the organizations, businesses and neighbors who have touched the lives of thousands of hurricane survivors. they are the reason that we are texas strong. i yield back the balance of my time. the sp

mark hurd is tough too. >> a tough guy. >> we don't want to mess with that. >> no. >> no. >> they'rej.j. watt at the end of the game last night >> the tackle. >> yeah. >> they're the j.j. watt of technology i just stay out of their way, but the numbers, the actual guidance for cloud was not good enough >> a lot going on at alphabet today. reports they're considering a billion dollar investment in lyft they're going to get tied up in a bid in this facebook ad metrics story today. >> yes i think that's unfortunate they have done a lot of work, but i keep thinking what procter said, we should get nelson peltz on to say his view on that cutback in social media spend but procter has a person from -- google on the board. i think that this lyft is a lot -- remember, uber, that challenge that they said that uber stole their intellectual property, those guys play hard ball at alphabet too they're no slouches. >> the way mo unit >> i love -- >> and uber. >> i've been the biggest fan since i was in a way mo. it is just remarkable. i'm not that great a driver, but it doesn't matter. >> no. that'

that's why i partnered with representative hurd from texas and representative reichert to introduce the national park service legacy act which will create a dedicated source of funding to address the national park service maintenance backlog. this bipartisan and bicameral bill is funded through unobligated mineral royalties and would generate up to $500 million annually through 2047. if we're serious about addressing the overwhelming maintenance backlog at our parks, i ask you join in supporting the national park service legacy act. i yield back. the chair: the gentlewoman from minnesota is recognized. ms. mccollum: thank you, mr. chairman. i am opposed to all these amendments included in the en bloc. many of them use offsets from accounts, the environmental protection agency, the fish and wildlife services that are severely underfunded. am troubled by one of the amendments, the emmer amendment. the boundary waters canoe located in northern minnesota is one of the last truly wild places in america. these 1.1 million acres of unspoiled wood lds and more than 1,000 pristine lakes are belo

we he had a road trip with will hurd, we got to watch that, even though his district may not have seen water as a result of harvey, we would have loved to have sent you some to el paso, quite frankly, he's a texan. and he gets it. and he's been there working with us every step of the way and with that, i want to yield to my good friend, beto o'rourke. mr. o'rourke: i want to thank congressman weber for bringing us together today and i want to extend my condolencers in loss of life, the devastation visited on the community he is represents. and i know he's doing his best to unite those communities in every way possible to ensure that they get back on their feet they rebuild and are bigger and better than ever. we join him, party difference doesn't mean anything at this moment. it is all of us as texans. i join chairman mccall in agreeing that we could not have a better moment as a state. and i'm grateful to you for bringing us together today. as you said, i've had an opportunity to spend some time traveling texas and especially in southeast texas. starting around the time that harvey hi

but i think the hurd letter which follows individual households over time doesn't find you're running out of money. other questions. sure. >> my name is marie, i'm with the economic policy institute. i want to congratulate a very interesting panel. both papers very interesting. my question is well first of all, quick question for joshua mitche mitchell. you mentioned you're looking at the post 2014 redesign of cps and it's ambiguous whether you're going to do the similar exercise or just talking about how to fix the questions to better capture the retirement income. for those who want to make correction, we'd appreciate if you repeat ed the exercise for 2014 and afterwards. the most surprising thing about the paper is how much the db income is under reported. if you had any idea why ss to underreported given it's a steady source of income. >> so, we've looked into this in terms of checking if these db withdrawals are one time and they seem to be steady payments. we've tried to explain in terms of demographic groups and we don't find much there. i think standard reporting, fatigue, whe
