holden: working at koch, i'm a bit cynical, i must admit there's a group called un-koch my campus. they're working with educational institutions across the country, funding free market forces, classical liberalism, and it's led to a lot of targeting of professors who are teaching courses on free market economics. they want their private e-mails and they want to know this and that. we talk about free speech, i'm pretty much a free-speech absolutist in a lot of ways. the government cannot restrain them because they did not give them to us. we been hearing about inalienable rights since the declaration of independence groups are financed by many organizations that oppose koch politically, and that's their first amendment right to do it. but it's hypocritical when these groups say they are doing it because they want to point out other big business interests on campus. there's a lot of groups on the left, a lot of wealthy people on the left that have businesses that are funding university projects and programs. i don't want them to get attacked at all, but it's wrong to attack either si

if charles koch and david koch pretty much credit or or blame to whatever point it is for every single penny that spent on a conservative or libertarian cause or issue or candidate. so the is no dark money in regards to the coax in my opinion. the reality is there's a cost to disclosure. -- kochs. from a cost-benefit analysis in my opinion i don't quite see who really pays attention to this other activists on each side of want to harass intimidate, create lists. we've seen over time and i've seen both sides do. it. i noted on our side against us with the kochs and have been a number of death threats. i'm not asking for somebody or entity giunta sang it comes at a cost, even the benefits from the disclosure? there's going to be absentee to talk about more taxes and more regulation. it's probably not something any of our groups are sponsoring from koch the episode about less government that type of thing, maybe it is. i don't quite see the need for all the disclosure laws other than people to put together lists and try to intimidate the i don't think it really brings about a lot of full

the surge in outside spending not just from the koch brothers. but from them.s coming from foreign country. the spending is by people in the united states. it's outside. >> outside. >> respond to that. we know where the money is coming from and we know where it's going. why not. >> why not? >> i don't understand. >> why not do it the way... >> i don't see a problem. if congress wants to pass subsidies to candidates so be it. the last body we want is the people in government writing rules, limiting the speech of citizens. that's what a lot of people are talking about. if they want to subsidise candidates go ahead. we shouldn't write rules saying people can't speak, where do you draw the line? >>> they wrote recalls saying 3700 limit, 2400 in the primary, 2700 in the general. that's all you can give to a candidate. they untethered super pacts from candidates. now there are no limits of any kind except for the winking between super pacts and chosen candidates and what would appear to be the fiction of non-coordination. maybe we should take out contribution limits

i am not going to get money from the koch brothers or billionaires. small, individual contributions. i seriously want them. it is not just bernie sanders. i wonder if it is possible for any candidate who is not a billionaire or who is not beholden to the billionaire class to be able to run successful campaigns. if that is the case, i want you all to recognize what a sad state of affairs that is for american democracy. >> what stances do you have on issues that make you a better nominee than hillary clinton? sen. sanders: we do not know what her stances are on all the issues, but this is what i can tell you -- i voted against the war in iraq. not only did i vote against it i helped lead the effort and are in many of the things i said back then turned out to be true. massive destabilization in the region. i am helping lead the effort against the transpacific partnership because i believe it continues a trend of horrendous trade policies which have cost us billions of decent-paying jobs. i helped lead the effort against the keystone pipeline because i do

kaley, why do people hate the kochs so much?democrats dislike them for a reason, because they are important to the republican party, they've pledged to give about $900 million many this race, and i'm so encouraged because they're supporting rand paul, scott walker, jeb bush and -- i can't think ken not your boy, mike huckabee, he doesn't make the list. >> hey, that's the free market system. kennedy: social conservatives in presidential races, they are not winners. betting on five presidential contenders, where would you put the money? if you were the second charles koch -- >> right. kennedy: because you almost are, you're charles cook. [laughter] >> which five would i give it to? kennedy: or maybe just one. >> scott walker and marco rubio. kennedy: because they're dreamboats? >> that's my whole thing. [laughter] no, i actually think the republican party is at risk of having too much of a good thing. it's been fantastic they've had so many candidates, they have a deep bench and a real debate which the democratic party's probably

today, koch and his brother david head koch industries one of the largest private companys in americaugh their company and foundations they donate to politicians and issues surrounding the fossil fuel industry. >>> let's start really simply, does climate change exist? >> of course, climate change has existed since the earth got an atmosphere. >> is climate change manmade. >> some of it has a human cause, that's correct. >> but michaels is among a group of scientist cited by senator inhofe that believe the worsening climate change models are wrong. >> i would argue that every model that we have - i wouldn't argue, these are facts, okay. shows that if we drop our emissions to zero, we don't do anything really detectable over the course of 100 years. that's incontrovertible reality coming from our own environmental protection agency's models. >> that is the most irrelevant comment i have ever heard. >>> "techknow's crystal dilworth turned dr. burton richter, a nobel prize-winning physicist, to fact check arguments about climate change. >> it will be destructive. it's still going to have

holden: working at koch, i'm a bit cynical, i must admit, there's a group called un-koch my campus.nd because the charles koch institute and foundation they're , working with educational institutions across the country, funding free market forces classical liberalism, and it's led to a lot of targeting of targeting professors who are teaching courses on free market economics. they want their private e-mails and they want to know this and that. we talk about free speech, i'm pretty much a free-speech absolutist in a lot of ways. i think there are natural rights. the government cannot restrain them because they did not give them to us. we been hearing about inalienable rights since the declaration of independence groups are financed by many organizations that oppose koch politically, and that's their first amendment right to do it. but it's hypocritical when these groups say they are doing it because they want to point out other big business interests on campus. there's a lot of groups on the left, a lot of wealthy people on the left that have businesses that are funding university pr

and at koch we took a step toward that. we got rid of the becomes on our application about felony conviction, the whole idea being we'll this a background check at the end of the process if we're interested in the person but helping a person after they make a mistake, don't brand them a criminal for life. help them get back on their feet lead a from ducktive life and have a good family life. >> >> woodruff: there are critics out there, i want to quote senator chuck grassley of iowa, he holds a very important position on the hill, just this week he said, "with a heroin epidemic strangling some of our communities and white-collar criminals getting paltry sentence, the last thing we need to do is take a tool away that law enforcement and prosecutors use to get the bad guys." >> i think that's why this coalition is so important, right. it's important that we have the left and the right making these arguments, and i have been really pleased by how much the conservative groups in our coalition are trying to have conversations wit

-- but the kochs have spent millions backing tea party candidates and conservative causes.: i do not actually know the koch brothers. [laughs] betty: i would not think you would. tom: i definitely think there has to be differences in the sense that those guys are doing something that is consistent with their self-interests. and -- betty: when you say "self-interests," what do you mean? tom: i mean they are basically pushing stuff that is very good for private enterprise and specifically oil refiners. very consistently, very aggressively, and sometimes very intelligently. i see that as we are on very different trajectory in terms of how we think about it, who we think we are representing, and what we are trying to accomplish. betty: but steyer does have an agenda, one that leans to the left. he spoke at the democratic convention in 2012. tom: big things are happening. thanks to president obama, america is laying the foundation for the way we power tomorrow. betty: he and his wife have given more than $11 million to super pac's he founded, and they hosted a $5000 per person f

on the democratic side of what the koch brothers are doing.y've said they're going to spend up to a billion dollars, and that's not only to drop negative advertising on hillary clinton's head. but they get it in the sense that they are looking at making inroads with millennials. they've got a front group for that. and they're looking at making inroads with latinos and they've got a front group for that. and you've got to say they looked at where they failed. they're retooling. and it certainly is a threat. >> david brock, always a pleasure. good to have you with us tonight. thanks so much. >> thanks for having me on. >>> find out what scientists are saying about miami's future and we'll have the latest on the shooting in texas, including its possible connection to isis. stay with us. we're right back. then you don't know "aarp". our aarp tek program helps people find better ways to better connect with each other. find more real possibilities at aarp.org/possibilities you can call me shallow... but, i have a wandering eye. i mean, come on. nati

if charles koch and david koch credited or blame whatever your point of view is for every single penny spent on a conservative cause or candidate, the reality is there's a cost to disclosure. and from a cost benefit analysis in my opinion, i don't see who really pays attention to this other than activists on each side that want to date create lists. act visit them. i know they do it on our side against us e kuz me with 2 koches. there have been a number of death threats. it comes at a cost. and who really benefits for the disclosure? >> just a short portion of tonight's program on free speech issues from the national constitution center at philadelphia. you can watch the entire event at 8:00 p.m. eastern on c-span. now vice president biden delivers this year's commencement address at the u.s. naval academy in annapolis, maryland. he pays tribute to the ship men who died in the recent amtrak train derailment. this is 25 minutes. >> i don't want to give the wrong speech here. you already heard one. you don't need two. folks, it's an honor to be here. governor mcauliffe special congratula

somebody on facebook accused of you being a water boy for the kochs. do you have an agenda representing the kochs conservative interest. >> it's the first time we have been accused of that. our reporting focussed on jed bush chris christie and led to an investigation of chris christie in new jersey. we looked at hillary clinton rahm emanuel. the key is to remember that real journalism, not partizan journalism looks at all candidates and is willing to scrutinise them and that's what we are willing to do at "the business times". >> what do you make by the clintons that they say there's no smoking gun no evidence to link any payments to the clinton or the foundation with influence over hillary clinton. >> i'm at a loss for that. in the sense that we know that money went into the clinton family effectively its personal bank account to bill clinton. and in many cases contracts from the state department came out. if you are going to say there's no suchling as corruption -- such things as corruption unless you have an email saying "give me the money, i'll giv

did the koch brackets come on your show. >> ifill: i'm waiting on them. >> i'm sure you are. but my point is a., it's not in our self-interest to do what we're doing. we think it's in the public interest. second of all, we're trying to be as transparent as possible. and when you look at the numbers whatever it is we're going to be a fraction of what they are so we're going to have to rely on message and the facts being on our side. >> ifill: assuming you're putting your money and where your mouth s$70 million in 2014. >> i don't know. what i found in politics anyone whongs they can plan how a campaign is going to go i think is nhlish because it's one of those interactive things-- if i do something you do something. so you really don't understand before it starts how it's going to play out sphwhriefl there's another way of putting your money where your mouth is and that could have been running for the u.s. senate in california for barbara boarks' seat. why did you decide against that? >> honestly, we felt like the way we could have the most impact in 2015 and 2016 was not by r

koch would like to find more of those issues. we would like we -- to think we have good ideas to add to the discussion. we would like to use our first amendment rights as an individual and a corporation to have a dialogue with other groups about issues of common interest. there are a lot of them out there. criminal justice reform is one. if you look at the issue, it is the tail end of the problem. you're talking about economic opportunity. we need to talk about the education system. we know our friends on the other side have ideas. we like to have a discussion instead of everybody going to their corners, throwing names running ads, and fundraising off each other. that is how we would like to use our first amendment rights. until his 2016 and everyone goes back to their corners. mr. rosen: an exhilarating discussion. we have disagreed about aspects of the application of first amendment principles to situations from campaign-finance to the regulation of political speech but agreed about hate speech and centrality of the american tr

significance of this and you referred to alec, but explain its role in all of this, as well as the koch was a speech to alec. what milton friedman was saying is that the goal is to abolish the public schools. this is a radical, extreme goal and it had been his goal since at least 1955. that goal has been joined by numerous billionaire families in this country, including the koch brothers. when david coker ran for vice president, one of his platforms was to abolish privatized public schools. they wanted to do abolish the department of education they've talked about the need to get rid of education. they have joked about it. this is supported by the amway fortune, the walmart foundation -- all of them have basically wrapped their agenda in the words of choice that milton friedman suggested. they say it is about choice, when, in fact, there is an idea that is hostile to public schools. the radicals in the country, including fred koch, believed that the idea of public schools is communist or socialist -- which is ridiculous. it is one of the innovations of america that has made our country

so there is no dark money with regard to the kochs in my opinion. but the reality is, there's a cost to disclosure and from a cost benefit analysis in my opinion, i don't quite see who really pays attention to this other than activists on each side that want to harass, intimidate, create lists try to out them. we've seen it over time and see both sides do it. i know they do it on our side against us with the kochs. and a number of death threats. and i'm not asking for sympathy or empathy. i'm saying it comes at a cost. and who really benefits from the disclosure? >> just part of a tonight's program on free speech issues. it's from the national constitution center in philadelphia and the whole thing starts at 8:00 eastern. and that's over on c-span. here on c-span 3, we are live this afternoon at the u.s. institute for peace in the nation's capital. waiting for a start of a discussion on women leadership in africa. should get underway shortly. >>> good afternoon, everybody we are complete. i'm delighted to welcome everybody this afternoon. i'm the pr

he is a huge favorite of the koch brothers. david koch let it slip that walker is his favorite candidate. as these republican candidates are running around the country gathering up money, walker is moving way ahead in that race as well so it makes him a very formidable candidate. i think people in wisconsin who have suffered through a walker budget that cuts $300 million out of the university of wisconsin, has slashed education historically here, you know are really looking at an extreme figure. i think the country should look at that and think, wow, that's scary. >> matt, what's the attraction here? >> i guess you don't like him very much? >> well she didn't say anything that wasn't true. he's been a hawk on the budget. he's gone after workers, he's gone after -- ed cut almost a billion dollars out of public education. >> he's tried to balance the budget. if he's so extreme and crazy and right wing how did he win in wisconsin over and over and over again? >> he's never won in a presidential year here. >> let me finish. clearly

and trust me bill and i were talking before we got on here and if charles koch and david koch prettymuch blame, but of your point of view is for every single penny that is spent on the conservative or libertarian cause or issue or candidate, so there is no dark money with regard to the koch's in my opinion. the reality is there's a cost to disclosure. from a cost-benefit analysis in my opinion i don't quite see who really pays attention to this other that activists on each side of want than activists on each side that wanted a rest intimidate, create a list that we've seen over time and i think both sides do. i know the dude on our side against us with the koch and i've been a number of death threats. i'm not asking for sympathy or empathy i'm guessing it comes at a cost. who really benefits from the disclosure? >> that was just part of a discussion on freedom of speech that took place at the constitution center in philadelphia. you can see the entire event tonight at eight eastern on c-span. senator tim scott gave the commencement address at south carolina state university. senator

other liberal activist trying to help democrats or the coat others and special interest -- koch brothers and special interest. they are taking on a competitive role but they are not allowed to coordinate with the candidate. my question is is that in with a wink and a nod? guest: it's beyond a wink and a nod. the way the federal election commission has interpreted what constitutes coordination has meant that you can get away with an amazing amount. we saw this in the last election. in this notion that the super pac's are operating independently is a farce. we have seen reports where mr. bush, jeb bush, is talking about there is a whole plan in place to use of the super pac to run much of his campaign operation. we have candidates that pretend that they are not coordinating with the super pac, but the american people know it's a farce, the candidates know it's a farce, and i think most importantly, what you have is a system that is pushing average americans out of the system. this is not a system that encourages more and more individuals to get involved. it is a system in which those who h
