let me tell you. and i'm -- i want to tell you the whole story because you probably are only hearing part of it. we're fighting right now for our health care benefits, retirements and our pension. right now we're on four month extensions. they have been playing this four-month extension. this started in 1946. john l. lewis was going to pull out because my grandparents and everybody that worked in the mines got nothing. no retirement or health care or nothing. we built this country and fought more than two wars. so important to have energy we had that basically they said okay, the truman and krugman act said there would be a certain amount of money taken out of every ton of coal mined. it wasn't taxpayer dollars. i was going out of the work they performed. that goes on. everything is fine. we had that in place. in 1980. the bankruptcy laws came into place that allows companies to go bankrupt and walk away from the obligation and pay. that has 7208. the abandoned land comes from every ton of coal you pr

do you believe -- >> but let me ask you this information. what do -- >> i'm just asking you a question. >> i have no way of knowing that, just like you don't. >> you have to have something behind an assertion. >> but chris, all of this started with the democrats saying they had information about the trump and the russians. the only thing they have done is exposed hillary clinton was in -- >> okay. let me go on. we do know the russians said. there are a lot of context. i have been open on this every night. have they fill until this puzzle yet? no. there is a lot of frame work to it. a lot of evidence the russians on hillary losing and they lucked out and got trump elected. in terms of hacking the dnc, all of this evidence suggests a grand effort by russians to crew our election process up and hurt hillary clinton. there is a lot of hard evidence that were never admitted to in the first instance people finally got caught. we didn't know jerrad was meeting with him at trump tower. michael flynn denied it. it has been kept secret and we exposed

let me ask you this. this morning the president's press secretary says the following. reports concerning potentially political mow vated investigations immediately aide hft 2015 are very troubling. is that a fair ask of this administration? >> well, look. president obama has flatly designed that he has done this. and either way, chuck, the president is in trouble. if he falsely spread this kind of misinformation, that is so wrong. it's beneath the dignity of the presidency. it is something that really hurts people's view of government. it's civilization warping, as ben sas called it. and i don't know if any president democrat or republican in the past has done this. shows this president doesn't know how to conduct himself. on the other nd, if it is true, it is even worse for the president because that means that a federal judge independently elected has found probable cause that the president or people on his staff have had probable cause to have broken the law or to have interacted with a foreign agent. now that's serious stuff. so either way, if the president makes i

let me -- let me finally touch on education. and i do think it's important to touch on education because the economy is changing rapidly and our educational institutions cannot ignore what the workplace is going to be demanding going forward. >> mr. acosta, i also just wanted -- for the record, note, and i appreciate this, that you've been a supporter of immigration reform in the past. with senator rubio, i was part of the gang of eight here who passed the senate bill on immigration and part of what you observed in 2012 was that the current system allowed the abuse of immigrant workers. do you still feel that way and do you still support immigration reform? >> senator, i think there is a need to have immigration laws that are transparent and clear. and i do think that we have an issue of abuse with immigrant workers. i think when workers are not part of a system, the system can abuse them. but i also think it's important that we -- that we enforce our immigration laws and i don't see enforcement of immigration laws as separate f

let me -- let me just give you a little more butt cheek.-- full crack in the lens. >> nice ass though, it's a nice butt. >> seth: it is a nice butt. everybody -- i think that was the thing about abercrombie and fitch, there were never lousy butts in the ads. >> there were never lousy butts. [ laughter ] no, he picked some good butts. >> seth: you represented canada as well, in what -- what am i about to show? >> ah, jesus. uh, you're about to show -- i did a thing when i was 17, it was like the ford super model of the world competition. >> seth: gotcha. >> where my -- yeah. i did like a -- >> seth: so you -- you had to win a lot of intern -- >> i won the canada thing. >> seth: okay. >> ford super model in canada, and then went to vegas to do the ford super model of the world thing. and as i was going down the runway, my joint collapsed in my toe. >> seth: gotcha. >> and thought -- it kind of hurt, and like five months later had to have surgery. >> seth: but this -- but this is incredible, because we're going to see the moment your joint col

warner: let me start off on that. i think we know about the hacking. and the selective leaking of information. but as a former tech guy, what really concerns me is at least some reports, and we've got to get to the bottom of this, that there were upwards of 1,000 paid internet trolls working out of a facility in russia in effect taking over a series of computers. they can then generate news, down to specific areas. it's been reported to merks we have to find this out, whether they were able to affect specific areas in wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania. where you would not have been receiving off of your -- whoever your vendor might have been. trump versus clinton. during the a winning days of the election. but instead, clinton is taking money from some source. fake news. we've also seen as well the fact that if you think about -- if you look just at, for example, if you googled election hacking, during the period leading up to the election and immediately afterwards, you wouldn't get fox or abc or "new york times" or -- what you'd get is four out of the

let me give you the chips program. i went to washington and said give me a waiver. let me take care of my children a little bit of friendly. the program is basically the working poor. we're going to cover their kids. familyre coming from a that doesn't have an insurance guarantee you don't have routine maintenance. you are basically using it when you have to. so i said let me use that same amount of money and use it for k to five and eight. let me do their bmi, do the complete workup on the job. we were doing things like that. a healthy person on medicaid does not need the same type of -- a verya very six sick person might need. if you are a healthy person on medicaid and welfare, i want you to go to your nutritional classes, i want you to exercise. you have to basically learn to live a healthier lifestyle. i can't help the poor people that are so sick because the money is being used in different areas. are going to have to put common sense into the health care. we are going to talk about single-payer. that is a big thing. >> my name is richard steiner. i'm from fai

so let me tell you about -- let me tell you about health care. don't think one party is going to be able to fix this by themselves. so here is what i think should happen next. i think the president should reach out to democrats. i should reach out to democrats. and we should say, let's take a shot at doing this together because it ain't working at doing by ourselves. how about that? all right. [ applause ] we'll talk more about that. the third thing is the supreme court. we just finished the hearing this week. judge gorsuch was one of the finest people, i think, president trump could have chosen. [ boos ] i'm going to enthusiastically support him and if the democrats try to filibuster him, they will be making a huge mistake. let me tell you a little bit about the judge. you don't want to listen? let me tell you why i think -- let me tell you why i think he's well-qualified. the american -- the american bar association gave him the highest qualified rating you could give somebody. he's been a judge for ten and a half years. he's decided 2,700 case

so let me tell you, let me tell you about cabinet picks. i was the only republican on the judiciary committee to vote for sonia sotomayor and elena kagan and i got the -- i got the crap beat out of me. can you hear me? you know why i got the crap beat out of me? because there is people in my party upset that we lost and they didn't want obama to pick anybody they didn't agree with. and here's what i said. here's what i said. the system can't work that way because there are consequences to losing an election. this president, this president obama, this president obama earned the right to pick qualified people. i voted for every one of his cabinet nominees. hush, hush, please. why did i vote for his cabinet nominees? i thought they were qualified, even though i wouldn't have picked any of them. now, now, now, no, now, now, now, no, wait a minute. now you lost an election. and you're acting like it doesn't matter. foreign aid. foreign aid. foreign aid. i thought she was qualified. gorsuch is beyond qualified. how many of you want to eliminate fo

let me say this.hen you say that president obama had disdain for the military when it came to spending, you're absolutely right. when he began, we spent 4.6% of gdp on the military. when he left office, that was down to 3.2. to put that in contrast at the height of the cold war with john kennedy, we spent 10% of gdp on the military. the idea is peace through strength. such a strong military that we're going to avoid war at all costs, everyone else is afraid of us. trish: john, what's wrong with that? >> not the 60s or 70s or the cold war is part of it. that's a speech -- >> according to you guys with respect to russian hacking. >> let me finish, you had your chance. that was valentine to defense industry. i didn't hear a word about veteran's health care, the va, military families. trish: he talked about a lot of that. john, give the guy -- cut him a little slack. one thing at a time. he has talked about the trend, he has talked about military families. remember the speech where he made the tribute to

so let me try a third one. let's see if you'll protect workers, saving for their retirements, from financial advisers who would cheat them. on april 10th, the labor department rule is set to go into effect that will require advisers to recommend retirement products that are in the customers' best interests, instead of products that give the advisers the highest commissions orphans iest prizes. the conflicts of interest now cost americans $17 billion every year. president trump has said he is currently working on a 60-day delay of the april 10th implementation date. if you are confirmed before this delay is finalized, will you promise to stop it? >> senator, there is an executive action that addresses with specificity the fiduciary rule. and it has asked the department of labor to look at the rule, and to assess specific questions. will the rule reduce the investment options available to investors, i believe is one of them. will the rule increase litigation. will the rule financially impact retiree investors. and

let me thank you. let me thank my colleagues for hosting this. reforming our criminal justice system is without a doubt the number one civil rights issue of our time. racial disparities and discrimination across the criminal justice system are undeniable. 13% of-americans make up the united states population, but we count for 35% of jail inmates and 37% of prison inmates. african-americans and whites use drugs at similar rates, we are significantly more likely to be arrested. let's think back to when the crack epidemic happened in our communities back in the 1980's. the solution was a war on drugs that put thousands and thousands of people in jail. particularly african-american males. but today, we are faced with an ravagingidemic that is all communities, and particularly the white community. to the opioid addiction, rightfully so, is treating it as addiction and a health crisis. where we are investing in mental health and addiction services and doing all those things. in the 80's, the answer was just a lock everybody up. as we talk about the opi

let me read it for you. he said, obamacare will explode and we will all get together and piece together a great health care plan for the people. do not worry. a bit of a mixed message. it sounds like the president is pulling for the existing law, the law of the land, as house speaker paul ryan put it, to fail. that means to fail the 20 million people who are benefitting from it and i think it's important to note here that obamacare is not imploding or exploding, whichever word you want to choose, according to some recent analyses. the conssional budget said it would stay stable under obamacare and standard and poor's said the huge price hikes for premiums on policies in some states this year, standard and poor's said that's likely a one time pricing correction. so the law is not imploding or exploding but there are serious problems with obamacare, particularly in the individual market, and so the president is saying, look, it's going to collapse. that will bring democrats to the table. democrats already sayi

let me say this. that's kind of a question for the courts and for the legisl e legislatu legislature. >> we can legislate. i'm wondering what's your position for changing the mens rhea standard for executives who in fact act recklessly even though we might not be able to prove they act knowingly. >> if that is where the law is, i will vigorously enforce the law. >> you do understand the sec in the past has weighed in on this and that has done a number of speeches and discussions about how do you intersect a criminal deterrent. interject a criminal deterrent. those of us who have been prosecutors understand the best deterrence in america is white collar crime. way too often you can hide behind the knowing. it's hard to prove someone actually knew. it isn't hard to prove someone actually should have known or acted recklessly moving forward. i think we could apply that criminal standard. we'd like you guys to be thought leaders on this. >> i am happy to engage on that topic with my fellow commission comm

let me frame it another way. there is no chief who would last very long in her or his job and every time someone called 911 they heard no, you are probably just racist, we are not coming. that doesn't make sense. in other words, the biases will necessarily be reflected in the behavior of their police. when the laws of this land are racist it is the job of police to enforce them. i hear from law enforcement who do not like that part of their job. they are crying out for us to save them from the laws they are forced to enforce that means the responsibly for the damage we see done by policing and some communities cannot belong solely to law enforcement. the responsibility must be claimed by all of us. we own this. as a democracy, as a nation, if it continues because we allow it, we now have the capacity to collect standardized and analyze data which disability which is possible is for disparities between police and the rest of us. those upstream factors. armed with an ultrathin international initiative for building

so let me be as clear as i can be. to oppose the policies of a right wing government in israel does not make one anti-israel or anti-semitic. we can oppose the policies of president trump without being anti-american. we can oppose the policies of netanyahu without being anti-israel. we can oppose the policies of islamic extremism without being anti-muslim. as i have said, many, many times, peace means security, not only for every israeli, but also for every palestinian. it means supporting self-determination, civil rights, and economic well-being for both peoples. these ideas are based in the very same shared values that impell us to condemn anti-semitic bigotry, condemn anti-muslim bigotry and to make our society a more perfect society. the values of inclusiveness, security, democracy, and justice should inform not only america's engagement with israel and palestine, but with the region and the world. that is what we stand for. united states will continue its unwavering commitment to the safety of the state of israel,

let me try a third one. let us see if you will protect workers saving for their retirements from financial advisors that would cheat them. on april 10, a labor department rule is set to go into effect that would require advisers to recommend retirement products that are in the customer's best interests in set of products that give advisors highest commissioners or the fanciest prizes. nowe conflicts of interest caused americans 17 billion dollars every year. the president has said he is currently working on a 60 day delay of the april 10 implementation date. my question is, if you are confirmed for this delay is finalized, will you promise to stop it? mr. acosta: senator, there is an that addressesn with specificity the fiduciary rule and it has asked the department of labor to look at the rule to assess specific questions. the the rule reduce investment options available to investors -- i believe that was one of them. will it increase litigation? will it financially impact retiree investors? the executive ac

[cheers and applause] history attests that enmity towards the jewish people for an evil thought to evil action by family and i. catastrophe night on the streets history just over a month ago while i was representing the united states in munich, germany. after attending a security conference, my family and i traveled to the first concentration camp. i have been there as a young man, that karen and i wanted our daughters here, too. we arrived at the camp in an early-morning call and we were accompanied on our tour. the 93-year-old holocaust survivor who had been imprisoned as a 17-year-old boy. as we waltz through the camp, abe described to me the life, toiling away as a slave while those around him were taken away. one by one, never to return. and then he stopped, looked up at me with tears in his eyes and said words i'l

let's get through it. with me now, jeff zeleny, m.j. lee, donald rattigan, and cnn chief political analyst gloria borger. great to see all of you. we'll walk through all of this, there was a lot. let's begin with multiple questions asked about, you know, the allegations from just about ten days ago from president trump saying the obama administration wiretapped him. today's deadline today for the doj to provide evidence. here is sean spicer. >> reporter: when should americans trust the president? is it phony or real when he says that president obama was wiretapping him? >> again, let's get back. there's two things that are important about what he said. i think recognizing that it's -- he doesn't really think that president obama went up and tapped his phone personally. >> reporter: what does he think? >> there is no question that the obama administration, that there were actions about surveillance and other activities that occurred in the 2016 election. that is a widely reported activity that occurred back then. but the president used th

thanks for letting me take my call. i would like to comment on korea . the last time, he cut me off on my last sentence. i will be more quick. on korea, we have to do a knockout punch. i am a democrat and i don't agree with trump on very much but there is a time for war and a time for peace. we can do it. we don't have to use nuclear weapons. we have to send about 1000 -- i and and rain -- so we send about 1000 missiles over there -- i am a and we have to send about 1000 missiles over there. host: we have a lot of u.s. troops in south korea. caller: i was stationed over there. wenow about that, too, but can carpet bombed their take kim's and we can out with their missiles. there is no choice and boycott china, too. the last thing you cut me off with, you might remember, i was going to say when sentence that the holy ghost was with them on the day of the pentecost, and the wind was whipping and god spoke to me in 1976. thank you for leing meell my story. misery.eve from let me show at the what jeffrey lewis has written for foreign policy magazine, availab

let me address. you know, one of the difficulties with matters before the department of justice is that the department of justice does not litigate in the public record or in the media and litigates in court. let me set forth some facts. this matter was originally a state case. it was presented by the state attorney to the grand jury in palm beach county. they recommended a single count of solicitation not involving minors, i believe, and that would have resulted in zero jail time, zero registration as a sexual offender and zero rest tau restitution for the victims in this case. it was presented to the u.s. attorney's office. it is highly unusual and as i was speaking to some of your colleagues that have been involved in prosecutions they mentioned they don't know of any cases personally where a u.s. attorney becomes involved in a matter after it has already gone to a grand jury at the state level. in this case we deemed it necessary to become involved and we early on had discussions within the offic

let me tell you something. i think we ought to go back to the first one and go all the way which is way wanted to do in the first place. the danger is clear, the law is clear, the need for my executive order is clear. i was elected to change our broken and dangerous system and thinking in government has weakened and endangered our country and left our people defenseless. and i will not stop fighting for the safety of you and your families, believe me. not today, not ever. we are going to win it. we are going to win it. we are going to apply common sense. we are going to apply intelligence. and we are never quitting, and we are never going away, and we are never ever giving up. the best way to keep foreign terrorists or as some people would say in certain instances, radical islamic terrorists, from attack our country, is to stop them from entering our country in the first place. [cheers and applause] we'll take it. but these are the problems we have. people are screaming break up the 9th circuit. i'll tell you w

let me start with security. this is the bilateral relationship area that is least likely to suffer or let me say the last apt to feel the impact on this because mexico understand that is the drug trade is as big a problem for mexico as it is for the united states. it presents a huge security challenge for mexico, so mexico is not eager to end bilateral security cooperation, if it end, it's more likely on the united states sides. mexico also understands the importance of cooperating with the united states on counter terrorism. it knows an attack would be a disaster for mexican interests and understands it's geographic position makes it's essential for the united states and weak power means that mexico doesn't have a lot of latitude to deny the united states issues deemed essential to the united states. particularly with regard to fighting organized crime they are unlikely to threaten the united states with non-cooperation in this area. second to immigration. i realize immigration is not a topic of today's event,

let me frame that yet another way. there is no chief would last very long in his or her job if every time someone called 911 they heard no you are probably just racist we are not coming. that doesn't make sense. in other words it would be reflected in the behavior of their police when the walls of the land are racist or does the job of the police to enforce them and i hear regularly from law enforcement who do not like that part of their job. they are crying out for us toou save them but the law is there to enforce. that means responsibility for the damage we see done by the policing in some communities cannot be long solely to law enforcement. they must be claimed by all of us.sp we own this.as a d as a democracy, as a nation that continues because we allow it. we have the capacity to collect the data and that this ambiguous responsibilities between the police and the rest of us with the knowledge of your gaming into the urban institute in collaboration with the u.s. department of justice we know there are interventio

>> he usually knows my sources before i do. >> let me assure you, i have all got his cell phone. rom me more than he sometimes likes. >> the white house and the president claim at times that the intelligence community leaked intelligence or communications scooped up by members of the trump associates, the transition team improperly. does the scope of your investigation conclude any of that? >> the normal course of business with the intelligence committee is about leaks. so that's an on going process that we look at. we will try to assess leaks if they take place during the investigation in the same way. and if we find them, we will refer them to the appropriate law enforcement agency by requesting the crimes report. >> have you seen anything that would suggest the white house did anything improper with information that is collected? >> my answer would probably be no, but, we're so early in the investigation, i'm not sure we triaged every piece of evidence. >> i think we -- one of the things we're both very concerned with. leaks can sometimes be extraordinarily damaging to our path
