i just want to make sure. mr. cohn: as intelligence, we worked initially as counterintelligence officers. while i was only a pfc., i did not show any rank. i was always u.s., u.s. because they were not to know who was what when we were intelligence. our mission during the battle of the bulge was to find germans who had penetrated u.s. uniforms. they were a hazard for us because they could do all kinds of damage in the back of our lines. we did find that this was a legitimate mission because when we hit an infantry roadblock in belgium, they had wiped out four of those fellers with a bazooka. we searched those people. they do not have anything on them except u.s. dog tags, which we confiscated because we could tell that these people were either prisoners or they were dead. our mission in germany was that we had to move into the big cities as they were captured and we had personality and building targets. the personality targets with the people who were going to be tried in war crimes. the building targets for anythi

and knowing what i want. remember having a conversation with my dad where i was saying what if i don't want to get married what would happen and. he said but you mean you don't want to get married you know you have to get married you know women who don't get married are looked upon very badly in society and cannot be not married i said but what if i don't care you have to know this that you are on the my dominance and you will be under it no matter what you cannot get out of that until you get marriage and if i die it would be your brothers who would be taking care of you and when i heard this i was at the age of twenty three and it was then that i decided i'm going to leave home no matter what happens i would actually leave his daughter being going away from his house without getting marriage it is breaking news on a if it takes my dad killing me because that was the option if you leave home you die but i felt i would die anyway. egypt is home to ninety five million people and the population is expected to in

i want to speak to two things that are not on the schedule, mr. leader, but i know that both of us focused on this and realize that we need to move and we need to move quickly. first of all, i want to speak of puerto rico and the virgin islands. the leader and i, mr. speaker, were scheduled to try to go to key west and to p puerto rico puerto rico and the vigin islands this weekend. i'm not sure that will be able to happen given some of the logistics on the ground. but whether that happens or not, mr. speaker, i know the leader and i are going to work very hard on this. there is a humanitarian crisis that has confronted puerto rico and the virgin islands. key west, at least you can drive to key west still and we can get relief to key west and to florida and the victims of harvey. obviously, our fellow americans that are residents of two islands or actually more than two islands, but that comprise puerto rico and the virgin islands are in life-threatening distress. i talked today to dr. price, secretary of health and human services about the availab

he said look, i don't want to hurt you, i don't want to hurt your brothers and sisters. showed him text messages of friends of mine, some of them were saying i was a disgrace to the green beret because i was even meeting with him, and some were i'm with you, man, but that really hurts me to see that. so i talked to him, and i said, i think, a knee, we both said, it was mutual, me, him, and eric reed, taking a knee would be a little bit more respectful. it's still a demonstration, you're still saying something, but people take a knee to pray. for me it was a common ground at least to start from. >> just to be clear, it's not something you advocate or support, but you felt taking a knee was better than sitting on a bench. >> i want collin kaepernick and every american to stand because they want to stand, but i want them all to stand. i'm more interested if someone's taking a knee because they really care about something than the guy in the stands or the girl in the stands or whoever that feels obligated to stand. song's playing, when is it over, i want to hear play ball and

i didn't want to say know. they shot the detectives or whatever and when i looked on instagram it was personal friend of mine from my neighborhood. that's how small baltimore but that's the reality. we're teaching and two blocks up someone was killed. that's everything that is going on in our community. that's the reality that cheese kids face every day, and don't know how to engage them. so it's like when you engage these kids, sometimes it's not best to just teach them, it's boast listen. kids with post traumatic stress just don't know. >> i think we should make sure we stay in contact. i'm on instagram, twitter and social media. what is my instagram -- its bydve, def vaccine allen without no vowels. i wanted to make it special. >> no underscores. >> no. before we leave, i want to open up my show. every time guy somewhere, people always give me cameras so there's -- the photographer gave me a point and shoot and it was like this interest the right hand so anybody between 15 to 16-year-old kid that is aspiring

, i haven't quite decided what i want to be. d is a big place and when i go out into it, i want to be sure i go in the right direction. if it had not been for that morning in september, 1957, i could have gone into law or education and not thought much about it. i was frightened that morning. i learned a great deal about people. not only about the people who were there but about the people , who were not there. like the politician who encouraged the mob, like the thousands who suffered with me and wrote to me to tell me so. while i waited, i heard voices speak out against us and i saw grown men turn their heads in shame from the camera. [singing] [cheering] >> central state is a negro college that opened its doors to whites only 17 years ago. today, 20% of the students are white and their our students against integration. the negro is like most americans, possessing no monopoly and hoping that this will not be confused. >> four years ago, a negro walk to this hall in fear. some of the hate outside had come inside. there were a fe

going to be all that i wanted i didn't want another me when we had is. so far yeah this is for me that is me i want to be done with it i mean i want to know. that i when we get on with the myth that of the last day i won't say science you know but i was always something that i was. a matter of even thoughts as to my family. and what i'm going to get it was i mean you. know we might. get them to look at the consulate general to me. but if it was you know i'm going to go on a couple. of months you know one of them is. going to the extent that i keep my someone else right they have going through. the same us dedham west as. an assassin now you but i can. see two there must must be employed there looking like you mickey here through this whole process to put them into. what kind of. you know push back in there with them to cover yourself with these things and they want to someone called me on this quest yeah starstruck. ok no. actually it was a length of in nebraska read the note they're going to. you mean to let it for you to let them listen think of the ho

i don't. want to do as you know but i live. i miss all my you know you know you know. that i had for them but to be trying to tell them they can use what to. say to me. and then yesterday when you know that when then when your leaving us for you guys have. done. with the schools that have been. pretty high. most of them while being briefed and well being targeted by the small boys so this is when they deal with. it. you don't look to me yesterday. as one. i. why move the problem that big people being equal to all because someone come on to the know me this in this in these i have a need i go to house school fees to take the kids. welcome i give them good for them it does mean i was been welcomed by golf is good to have so i try try to the problem where your nephew can get ten. k. that's a move was about it was. not you not the you never know how. much. you know why you have. was not. how. it is. you know. money was. the best idea. and this is what is that it. was and that was the way he met that yes that was a no no. yes and done no one's up to close enough ones are no

know we have to make certain i want to i want to advance a little bit i want to ask you about what each of you are doing and how it relates to what we're talking about take a listen to this video comment we got from karma. consider african like fixing and storm and black panther but they were not created by africans they were created by westerners so they're looking at africa through a western lens which when it's not so typical is sometimes a little misinformed comments coming out of africa right now aren't just black versions of western superheroes they're telling their own stories sometimes they're not even superhero stories sometimes they're based on folklore i mean africa has a rich history so all of that mixed together is letting the rest of the world kind of see in africa that we normally don't see it's not the africa that's pro-trade in the media so ga what kind of takeaway do you want western audiences to have from your work. basically that africans in general are very smart people we're not we're not linked to animals which is one of the problems i have a black panther every s

to control your own case, you wanted to make sure that -- >> no, because when i saw that, i wanted theworld to know. there was no way i was going to tell people i'm injured or just wait this out or pretend it's something that i'm not, this is it. >> rose: you wanted to take command of it in a sense. >> yes, and i owed it to my fans, fans that wake up in the middle of the night to watch me play that supported me that have died through my matches. i owed that to them, yes. >> rose: there are two aspects to this. number one, as you were going through this, did you find people who you expected to support you didn't? >> you know what i learned is i think i've always been an athlete that i've said this from the very beginning of my career, i never personally had a role model when i grew up. i watched television but there was never a person who i said i want to be just like them. and as i've gone through my career and young girls and boys would come up to me and say i want to be just like you, i would say, no, you want to be better than me, dream to be better than i ever was. but during this

i want to admonish to not to go home and buy it from amazon. amazon has good things but looks are not one of those. authors are very important in and i understand it but i think their bookstores are equally important and you can show your love for purchasing books there so thank you. we are thrilled to have with us this ibram kendi a professor of history and national relations and the founding direct her of the antiracist research policy center at american university. he is a frequent speaker and has been everywhere lately. for those of you who may have hurt him or seen him he's been on many different programs and shows anything other of the book we are going to speak about today but also the black campus movement, black students in the reconstitution of higher education. the book we are talking about today "stamped from the beginning" the definitive beginning of racist ideas in america. he's working on a third book right now, how i became an antiracist. and what should we expect in that book? that is what your publisher is asking. >> exactly. w

i wanted to be a ranger when i grew up at some point. that was either before or after i wanted to be a firefighter. as my mother would say, i didn't make it. i seemingly didn't have any ambition, so i became a member of congress. but what i want you to know is that the work that you do to protect our wildlife, a way of life in the west and these issues, including triable issues, i appreciate the struggle. >> thank you. >> mr. culver son, you and mr. certificate an notice have a bulk of issues that have consumed my time. so i know they consumed your time. the ability within these areas of commerce, justice, state are sensitive areas, and they're areas that seemingly we've got to get right. so i will look forward to the testimony that comes behind us. we'll attempt to follow some bit of wisdom. the committee here, including members, including even our newest committee member, mrs. chainy, have definite ideas about the world and we appreciate your viewpoint and bringing it forward today. so i really just offer accolades. i've been through t

i feel like i want to do something to help our people. can't physically help and i set out to raise $200,000 and that was the initial goal. >> did you think you could get 200,000? >> yeah, i had a plan for 200,000. and now we're over 12 million, going into the $13 million range. so new plan. >> a lot of folks that have been waiting to see you are very grateful. when you saw it starting to go up, you reached 200,000, every time you clicked on the site? >> it kept going and going and we broke the site. the funniest story of it all is the initial night we broke the site and couldn't figure out how to get it back up and found the ceo's phone number and called him at his house and got him out of bed. >> that's customer service. >> i got to give the guy credit and he probably helped us raise a ton more money because he got the site up and running. once we hit 10 million i said i'm going to put it at 15 and see what happens. yesterday we raised 4 million. we're just going to let it go and see where it goes. maybe it gets to 20, maybe more, but no

i do want to echo, obviously the ad buys are the things that you and i would notice. we do here have heard quite a bit in medicaid about people wanting that personal touch when signing up. many people who have been -- they're very nervous in submitting an application. they want to make sure everything is correct, and so that last touch with an outreach worker really gives them piece of mind that they've done everything to ensure that the enrollment goes through properly. >> that would be a similar role as to the navigators and the aca? >> very similar. >> which by the way i would point out they've just cut the budget 40% for navigators and aca and the advertising budget by 90%. which is a real problem. could you address, could the two of you address what impact would cuts to the medicaid program have on your work? assuming that there was success which we hope there won't be, but if there was success in cutting the medicaid program as has been proposed a couple ever different times in the context of an aca replacements, what impact would that have on the chip program? >

you know, i don't want that. i just want to retire now. want to find something to do over there when i get out. i don't know, a pastry chef or do something positive. the last time i got out, i was scared. i was afraid to even walk in a walmart. i went in there with my mother and sister, and we walked into walmart, and i was like really nervous, you know, and i go, i got to go back outside. i wasn't used to the people, the colors, hearing the kids cry in aisle four, you know, and all the noise, and the cars going by and the traffic and the airplanes. nobody forgot me. life goes on without me. you know? and it goes on. it doesn't stop for joe, you know, it goes. >> next, joe has it out with another staff member. >> [ bleep ] >> now, joe -- >> [ bleep ] >> plus, a fight breaks out in the level two dorm. >> i saw you on video. >> maybe it wasn't me. ergy pill. it helps block 6 key inflammatory substances that cause symptoms. pills block one and 6 is greater than 1. flonase changes everything. hi. can you tell me about these new social security

] i didn't want to be on tv. >> jimmy: i don't want to have the biggest snow in late night. >> i can'toser to milwaukee. >> jimmy: with my buddies, yeah. >> yeah. but see, the thing is, like, when you have a fantasy football league, everybody has to care about it the same amount. 'cause if you have one person that breaks the fantasy, then the fantasy is ruined. if there was one character in "game of thrones" who said, "ugh, dragons, right," that would ruin it. [ laughter ] "okay, how many? three. that's convenient." [ laughter ] and that would just -- you don't want to see that. so that's what i don't want. >> jimmy: no, i know that. yeah, if you have one person that's not in on the thing, i'd rather not have them at the party. >> yeah, exactly. >> jimmy: i'm like that now with "riverdale." >> oh. [ cheers ] >> jimmy: that's my jam. that's my jam. emmys made a mistake. they really messed up. that's the best show on tv. i love it. >> i think that based on -- i don't think i would be a good person to watch it with you. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: can you imagine sitting -- >> i haven't seen e

ryan: i want to thank the gentlelady. i also want to thank the chairman from bowling green, ohio, the harvard of the midwest, bowling green state university, and the ranking member schakowsky for including the language, as she said, for the hot car act. we lose about 37 children a year who accidentally get left in the backseat of a car when a parent or grandparent accidentally forgets that they're there. they change their routine. and 37 kids a year pass away. it is one of the most tragic circumstances we have to deal with in this country. ms. schakowsky and i, along with peter king from new york, have championed this bill. i just want to say thank you for including it in here. these cars get hot fast. up to 125 degrees, and this allows the language -- allows the companies now to put sensors in there. we know when we leave our keys in the car, we know when we leave our lights on. we get a ding, we get a bell. now we'll know if something, someone is in the backseat, there will be an alert that the car companies will put int

i want to thank everybody who brought me here. t.omen's group i am here to stand before you and thank you for having me. sorry about that. i'm usually right here, right when we are ready to start. it is the pastor of-based strategies. theelped organize charlottesville to bc march. reference? good afternoon everyone. it was an incredible march , that isashington dc last remaining colony on the mainland of the united states and being a colony on the mainland of the united states, our heart goes out to another colony that is called puerto rico and the people who are suffering today because of an an a list of this government to serve the people of puerto rico. if you are from out of state, you don't realize that we don't have voting rights in washington dc. us arein the bony behind able to impose any kind of law that they see fit on the citizens of the district of columbia. let me point out something,d daca helps. it was built on the backs of slaves. where the archives said, that was the auction block where they sold off slaves. what i

i want to say thank you. we are one voice but when we join together we create a course of conviction that will be heard. i want to thank you for continuing to show that no matter how we are in hand we are dealt in life we still can press forward and win battles for justice and for honor interest. i want to say right now it has been an incredible fight, incredible fight, in this community to have a call to the conscience of this nation. it is you all showing up and being willing to literally roll your body into the ears of government to say it demands that this nation must live up to this value and it must live up to its ideals. that we can never be a country with liberty and justice for all if we have our citizens were denied the justice of access to healthcare. were denied the liberty that comes from access to healthcare. so, we all work and must continue to fight because we still are yearning for the day in this country when we can join hands, black, white, latino, christian, jewish, muslim, disabled, every

friend. >> i just want to clarify. >> i have to have a connection. family member or a friend i will be visiting. >> i'm just messing with you. >> anniversary cards on the visit. >> i'm a very for giving guy. >> give me my kidney back. >> there is that. >> probably better to give it to always that, though. i gave you my kidney. >> do you realize you got my kidney, right? >> that kind of shuts down the argument. shuts it down right there. hey let's talk about this. four years after her lyme disease diagnosis debbie gibson a singer is getting ready to compete on dancing with the stars. now the singer sat down with us weekly to reveal how her illness has impacted her performance abilities and experiences so far on the reality talent show. she says i'm just at the point that if i think too far ahead i won't get out of bed in the morning. i take it a day at a time. a dance at a time and just stay in tune with where my body is now and i need to take care of myself. her partner alan he's a profesional dancer on the show and he says debbie has been dealing wit

i can go home anytime i want and i can go anywhere i want but this is where i want to be. i passion is to see, as curtis said earlier, to see men and women that are incarcerated have somewhere to go especially in texas. i do this also for my church. i go and speak at youth facilities, churches and stuff it right now one of the numbers going around is 85% of people that go to jail, county jail or prison will go back. they will commit another crime and go back. they have nowhere to go. they're not being educated in prison so that is where i think oxford, where we can do a great deal with that it helps. one of the things that we want to start doing in san antonio and i talked with outreach workers there is that we will open a reentry program, reentry house probably later this year and we've got to get has to start somewhere. we can't be scared of it can be afraid of it and it's there. is you all heard the most of the morning and for most of the day probably 75, 80% in oxford house have been is rated at some point or another and if all of us to have somewhere to go what would

there are things in that plan i didn't want. i was going around tables lobbying for some of that stuff not to be in there but this is what our kbhunt said they wanted so the plan shouldn't be about a superintendent, it shouldn't be about a board of education, it should be about the what the will of everybody's whose participating in that is saying that they believe needs to be done with the city. now there's opportunities for you to insert some things in there but ultimately, plans die, often times when a superintendent leaves or a board changes and that shouldn't be the process that we're taking. the plan should be able to live on because the community has embraced it and they were a part of building it so they fill a part of something big. we've done that. that's the process that we've taken and it's worked out extremely well. just simple, i'm going to move on this, you have to have a strong communications and community engagement department. that was the number one thing that the board shared with me when i interviewed. they s

i don't want to rubbish this date so we cannot leave it in the old. shark station i don't think that tangled they had all run on the base old little boy they were. going to let me go on their own not. getting one so scuba. lotusphere. i think these two are to defend devices that these small bass from the local fishermen snapped some say of these fish for a lot. in the coast of africa usually they would have. attached to that but now we see that it. could be torn out by a storm or strong queens feel that since. they've stayed far out that they stand sadie's defeated before a or say and said. that if you don't get stuck in that one propeller or any other vital parts of the ship oh it wasn't a shark or a go thing or a way of getting started. exactly. most of all the people i want to. see everybody. then they do a big next to us they can play cards where. on the floor of the willing to take. the sharks to endorphins to fish we don't want them to be killed why would we produce here all of the whole fleet we now have ten ships all of them are big guns and al

i want to talk about the upcoming tour, because i just -- i love the title of the tour.that is -- can i -- what can we expect from that? >> oh, i -- jimmy, it is the easiest money i've ever made. [ light laughter ] >> jimmy: no, no. no, make up a story. >> what? >> jimmy: make up a story about how you're psyched to be on the road. >> oh, sorry. it's such a thrill to be back on the road again. [ laughter ] it's just what i do. i don't even have to turn up at the theater when the show starts, because they show "monty python & the holy grail." and everyone in america thinks it's such a wonderful movie. i don't particularly like it. [ light laughter ] so i go out after i've had dinner, because while they're watching the [ bleep ] film, i'm having dinner. [ light laughter ] i go out and we talk about it for an hour and a quarter. and look, there's two things. first of all, they're preselected to like python -- >> jimmy: yeah, all right. >> so they're not going to be horrible to me. >> jimmy: yeah. >> and the other thing is, i've forgotten. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: now, one poin

and i always wanted to be a soldier. i don't know why. except that we had a small army post near where i was born. and i always wanted to be a soldier. so i lied about my age. went in. and my first assignment overseas was the 740th tank battalion. when i got there, i -- all i had actually was training in armor, which is all i really needed at the time. except when i got there two months before the battle of the bulge started, all of a sudden, i realized i didn't know a heck of a lot. and the day-to-day coverage for me, they assigned me to the assault gun platoon of headquarters company. the assault gun platoon, in case you don't know what this is, it was a standard sherman tank with 150, 1-5-5, millimeter main tube on it. whereas most of the things had 75s and 76s. well, our first real action with the assault gun platoon was a town of stumont, which is in belgium. what happened was at the beginning, the bulge started on december 16th. on december 19th, we went into action for the first time. on that very first day, we sent three tanks dow

i want to thank mike pence. he is, in fact, i would like you to say a few words. >> i would be happy to. thank you, mr. president. first lady, it's an honor to be with you today. just to pay a debt of gratitude for the great leadership here at the state and local level. i know the president directed the full resources of the federal government, to support florida's effort to prepare for and confront and now recover and rebuild from hurricane irma. the president's directive over this weekend was clear, wherever hurricane irma goes, we're going to be there first. and thanks to the great leadership of your governor, and your emergency management team, and all of the great first responders on the ground, that's exactly what florida did. and as the president has said, we're with you today, we're going to be with you tomorrow, and we're going to be with you until florida rebuilds bigger and better than ever before. thank you. [ applause ] >> one word on a very important subject, so your power, i mean literally, rick, i

i wanted to take first of all mr. hastings, i am a believer that you should celebrate the whole month whenever it is your birthday. be prepared. as one of the newest members of the appropriations committee, i wanted to express my appreciation for the hard work that goes on in that committee. probably the only other one that spends as long hours is the rules committee. both of these subcommittees have challenge of the not only investing in the future , also solving problems currently faced. all with smaller amounts of money to spend doing it and i think you have done a good job of rising to the challenge and wanted to acknowledge all of your work and all of your committee members work rising to dedication and so i appreciate that. also just wanted to make a comment, it is not an open system by definition but when you have well over 1000 amendments that are offered and a half of them will likely be prettyd, that is a doggone transparent process and one that allows members to fully participate in this process, i just want

i want to ask you about the media. seen so institution in america that's so one sided that hover talk about.p.go i talk about the forgotten men and women. people that camei lk from our background or worse. they never talk about them.t all they want to do is destroy this president. >> not only do they want toid destroy president trump but anyone who voted for him and supports him on air or gives him a fair shot. it just goes across the board. look, we're living in a time where there are no more journalistic, rules. i can back up that 50 different ways. i won't bore everybody tonight but i will someday. there are no rules anymore. so your major urban newspapers aren't newspapers, they're left wing journals and they coordinate. and the people on the cable newe shows on the other channels are left wing top to bottom. if you wear a make america great hat into "the new york times" tomorrow and you work there, you won't be working there much longer, all right? it's very, very intense. very intense. but what's happened now is b

i want to thank you very much. i would like to remind you also before you leave our awesome stenographer would help her, enable her an opportunity to get key words down and double check her mathematics as she moves forward. i want to thank you for taking time to be with us today. >> may i point out it is important to note that the bills have been online and available to the public for full scrutiny since the month of july. we have been as transparent as we can be. we are proud of these bills and the public has had a chance to read them since july. >> in english and in spanish. >> thank you very much. >> we will now move forward. i would like to welcome panel two. chairman tom graves of georgia, ranking member is here to testify on financial services general government division of the bill as well as our own tom cole. to testify on labor, health and human services education related agencies of the bill. we will recognize them as they come. we are delighted to have you. without objection anything in writing will be in

i don't want to -- i just want to clarify that. i am prepared to look at modifications that make it clear that we are not seeking criminal sanctions. there are a couple of ways you can draft of this. i don't know if we will go back to the original law because i am not sure of the consequences of that, but in regards to what i have filed in regards to international organizations, we are not use to criminal sanctions. -- and i really appreciate the way the question was asked because i did not put criminal sanctions on the activities that were expanded. that was existing law. been the use of criminal sanctions. i agree with you that i don't believe we need criminal sanctions in that regard. >> how about torture? you will do that? questions and answers. >> will you remove this from the bill? >> i said i will clarify the bill. [crowd shouting] sen. cardin: i think i answered it. next question. [crowd shouting] sen. cardin: please don't use that language. thank you. >> senator cardin, i applaud your efforts to advance health care, and i a

to discuss religious issues i don't want to discuss and her birth asians i want to discuss only two things which are as i mentioned my fundamental rights to do whatever i want the fruits of my labor and my positions ok and my freedom of faith but read it but read i you one of the liberals that the former prime minister is talking about here are the others within two days in society who would fundamentally disagree with you the problem i mean what. i agree with of course i agree with any any anything that goes in the. in the direction of. i mean fundamental rights but in my mind the problem of the first minister and the president of the republic is the way they presented the think because i repeat that internees euro raid their legal framework a grunty the freedom of faith and second weren't the fundamental rights that people do what they want with their. sessions as long as they've done to trouble the public order of course but i mean the leg or from framework or a did you know i don't know what lots of things so i mean i think in my mind it's a very bad direction to talk about

i want to stress it's not an empty slogan. the secretary wanted employees to drive this prauocess from th beginning so the department and u.s.a. id can better serve them, even as they serve the country. the executive committee i chair is composed of a balance of u.s.a. id and state department leaders. similarly the groups that drafted the proposals that fed into the reform plan were comprised almost entirely of reform staff in the u.s. and abroad. 72% of work stream members were working level employees. those that deal with the day to day level of business and diplomacy. they proved to be invaluable. the resulting agency reform plan incorporates suggestions and feedback from all over the world. we submitted this plan earlier this month, consistent with the president's executive order, 137 al 81. which calls for effectiveness in accountability for each federal agency. let me share with you a few key features of our plan. first, we need streamline the policy creation process and optimize and realign our global foot print. state a

that you did not joke you know i know how it's going to be you want it. and i don't want to miss my. magic breakfast. you know one of them are just awful because then i want to delete the number who doesn't but why did he out you know. when you know enough and they justify what can be said about boys. about not just among the number one of the boys i'm sick with it's what i want these. are all quite clean as i had in that respective areas that is in the fight slums where they walk so our chinos when the high and fast they go through what you call clear weeks intensive after that is this true with tendencies. to actually know was the full one mia so they train their own slaves actually no one's been helpful one mia as the chick or the want to be teaching i used not to be able to find out. about what we're going to need going on now for our. own i'm off work. you know. when i got this young girl. with. us out of the from the switch he would say i want to. get you seem not. to say no to the minister such. as yourself i want you to because you have no place an

i didn't get that if i wanted to perform daily. ers, start buying reynolds metals and phelps dodge, your mining and mineral companies. nevertheless, i had a clause with my investors, one demanded by one of the guys, which is if my fund dropped by 10%, i would have to open the doors and let people out my fund sank and sank because it was filled with not what was fashionable. when i had fallen to 9%, we footed all my favorites and played that rotation game and got to even, then much more so it was a sobering lesson if you want to perform on a daily basis, you've got to take action you can't just sit there and get your head handed to you because you own best of breed companies. this rotation game is not one you can play at home without being almost a full time professional as that year blogged, the economy got hotter and hotter and the stocks kept getting higher and higher. but at a certain point, things got too high people started worrying about interest rates going higher, and then the stock market crashed. all those cyclical plays w

all right, i want to call-up the next speaker. a carbon copy of his own style of mr. trump. he will be the next senator of pennsylvania. can you guys make some noise for mr. bobby lawrence so he can come up and speak to y'all. >> sorry. i'm new to this. i'm not a politician. i'm a small business owner. i want to thank everybody for coming out today. well, thank you. i'm running for u.s. senate in pennsylvania to support our president. and how's our president doing, by the way? are we happy? yes, the press has interviewed me and they've asked me why are we all here? what's the point? and the point is over 63 million of us voted for president donald trump. are those some beautiful words or not? president donald trump, my two favorite words since january. president trump in hisfore thought -- this is how intelligent the man is. he actually has published on his website his contract with america. and these were the america first items that he was running on. remember all those campaign speeches and rallies we all love to go to? and he p

this wish i wanted to. just leave and i'm. not one yet i at least i believe i. just. said that he didn't he did not joke you know. no no no no no no no no you wanted me. to start with i don't want to miss my. magic breakfast. you know one of them are just awful because then i want to delete the number who doesn't but why did he out yes yes when you know enough and they justify what can be said about boys. not just among the number one of the boys i'm sick with it's what i want these. are all white cleaners i had in that respective areas that is in the fight slums where they walk so our chinos when behind us they go through what you call blue weeks intensive after that is this true with tendencies. to adreno was treated for one mia so the train alone saved a chino was being helpful when mia as the chick or me want to teach my youth not to be up find out. about what we're going to need going on now for our. phone number one. so when i got this young girl. with. us out i said that i found the switch because they wanted to not just. say no to the minister such. as yourself

this is what i wanted to understand. and if i somehow got to college and understood and researched race in public policy and that intersection, maybe i could find the solution to the situation, not only that i was facing, that my community was facing, as well. and then i got to college, and i realized that the fight for justice does not end there. the most recent incident at cornell university demonstrates, where a group of white students proceeded to beat on a black student and call him sand nigger until he was bleeding. this incident and so many before it were reminders that minority students, not only are we susceptible to micro aggressions that then can turn into physical aggressions, we lack equal opportunity to educational resources, and academic and emotional support that was my experience. until i found the ronald e. mcnair scholars program. it was the first time that my identity as a black woman from a low socioeconomic status was not seen as a source of limitation, but was seen as a pillar of strength worthy of
