north korea before the began begin kim jong-un said he would give a apartment and messier messi mercedes-benzo won gold unfortunately they got no medals. the north koreans have been shut out. so they broke this news. -- so congratulations to them. hasn't been fun for the russians either. the russian team was banned because of doping at the last olympics at sochi but the athletes were allowed to compete as individuals not for team russia. one was named alexander who won a bronze with the medal for curling was revoked because of doping violation. only a dope would use steroids for currenting i mention it because it's interesting how they revoke the medal. olympic officials took his medal, set it on the ice and gently pushed it away. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] and not only is it olympic season, it's also cold and flu season. i was watching olympic ice skating and thought it would be fun to make a game out of it. time to play skating or sneezing. okay. this works like this. i will show you a photo, close up of someone's face, you have to guess if the person is skating or mid-sneeze. oka

weekend but there will be mild air moving in just in time for the weekend so things will be getting messier not in the way that they usually do during the month of february meaning there is no snow in the forecast because of the milder temperatures ahead, there is snow out in cleveland , out in michigan, out around chicago, most of that today, is going to move to our north and west and we don't expect anything but included cover today. maybe a few flurries in the mountains but that is bit. here we are tomorrow it looks like for most of the day it will be cloudy and then rain moving in the evening very heavy rain coming in on sunday on and off throughout entire day on sunday and throughout the night and when all said and done we may end up on sunday evening, with about 3 inches of rain, from wilmington and trenton, two and a half inches of rain. not only rain but lots of it on the way for sunday. we are in the teens and 20's we will head to a high of 40, pretty seasonal and temperatures on saturday and sunday we will chill out on monday back to the 50's by valentines day, guys, back to you.

there are some ethic advocates that portray this as clear cut but we all know democracy is messier than that. and this legislation of ethics with the first amendment rights. i want to focus today given the limited time on the behested contribution session with a quick illustration, if you as a public official come to speak at a nonprofit fundraising event to urge support, first we have to count heads, it only falls under public speech exception, if there are 50 people. if anyone at the room testified at a hearing, came to the rally and signed a petition to try to influence the board of supervisors and gives $1,000. you and the donor must both file reports to the ethics commission. if you don't file the report or the donor doesn't file the report, there is a fine. that's a gotcha. it's a chilling and terrifying proposition. are we going to take attendance at rallies or require petitions to be submitted electronically. it terrifies me. we hope today is the start of a thoughtful conversation -- >> supervisor cohen: thank you. next speaker. >> i want to thank the supervisors for their thoug

i would argue the first week of the cuban missile crisis was much messier than people think. it is this understanding of khrushchev as basically being someone who is not a madman that made possible the peaceful resolution. so, the lessons, i believe to sum up, are that your adversary irrational in your eyes, and the irrationality is a function of your assumption. if you assume them to do one thing and they do something else , that makes them irrational to you. but in fact, their thinking is perfectly logical. the other thing to keep in mind is that other countries are afraid of us. them to fear can lead take risk. and that we should be more introspective about the nature of their fear. and this is not a judgment about moral, this is not moral equivalency. i am just simply arguing that the americanre of success of the united states and developing its power also leads to challenges. in the early 1960's, it was a time where the united states tried to engage the soviets, and they were dealing with a leader who did not want engagements. he wanted revision. and it is when he change

but the news appears to be your comment on this that democrats are making it messier. >> they're trying to rebut this nunes memo, but there's nothing in the nunes memo to rebut. all it shows is the fbi doing its job, track down russian agents and carter page hanging around with russian agents and if any of trump's other associates are hanging around with russian agents i hope the fbi gets a warned -- warrant on them too. this is just a lot of nonsense, and i think the democrats ought to let it go. congressman nunes has made a complete fool of himself and has helped nobody but vladimir putin by attacking the fbi. i think the democrats ought to focus on the real issue, the computer hacking and other activity hover in the oust collaborated with the russians and whether that reaches into the white house. that's what we need to investigate. they need to start doing their job or we the voters, we're going to have to boot them out of there. >> richard painter, appreciate your time and you too, ned price. appreciate you both. all of this could have an effect on devin nunes's home district. take

mueller's subpoena-driven investigations, almost makes you wonder whether there was some larger, messieran relationed issue on the trump campaign, nota that we would prejudge. >>> also breaking tonight, i'm going to turn to my nexting panel of guests, "the washington post" reporting that the top justice department official alerted the white house that there's issues in kushner's security clearance. he said additional information would require additional investigation and would delay kushner's clearance. let me tell you how this works. the call two weeks ago, rosenstein who's bob mueller's boss and oversees the probe, trump says this about the issue. >> we inherited a system that's broken. it's a system where many people -- it's taken months and months and months. it's a broken system and it shouldn't take this long. that will be up to general kelly, general kelly respects jared a lot and he'll make the call, i won't make that call. >> professor, no shortage of problems over there. >> yeah. >> i'm going to read this specifically from rod rosenstein, who called don mcgahn, who is the perso

individual organizations are correct, slower and messier but can be fast e -- faster and, in fact, has to be. >> it's actually did i feel, i will give you an example and i have a colleague here steve who is also a former president of the labor and employment association and lives in the industrialization world when we try to do system safety in manufacturing operations, one of the hardest things is to do this error correction and the way you do it is with people reporting near misses. the problem with reporting near misses is you have to admit that something bad might have happened which involves social systems of not being blamed and having the event in which you were trusted and not at risk in doing so, when you go overcome the barriers, those deeply embedded assumptions, actually some very powerful things can happen, but it's not an exponential process. >> i will make one other point on this, in games you get the massive communities, 50, 60 million people and you get a lot of toxic behavior. there's been amazing research, league of legions, toxic behavior popigated and positive beha

weaponized but they also have a duty to report to the fbi, then i'm afraid that 2018 could be much messier what the article reports is that there was almost a concern about not wanting to change too much of what people were seeing then because like a referee that had been criticized for their calls, they had this thing that they were worried about basically the allegations that they were conservatively biased. do you buy that theory or do you see that as a smaller thing? >> no, i don't buy that. i do think that this was more about just a naivete that all of us had. i think as lawmakers, even in the obama administration, as voters, i don't think anyone appreciated how aggressive the russians would be. we're also looking in our investigation at the government response. i'll say to you, ari, i think one of the lessons learned is that we should have been straighter with the american people as soon as this interference campaign happened. but because candidate trump had put it out there that the election was going to be rigged, that got in the head of obama administration officials and they felt

i believe it is messier than people think but the understanding of khrushchev as basically being someone who was not a madman that made possible the peaceful resolution. so the lessons i believe to sum up are that your adversary can be irrational in your eyes and actually be rational and the irrationalty that you have in the assessment is a function of your assumptions. if you assume them to do one thing and they do something else, they are irrational but in fact, their thinking is logical. the other thing to keep in mind is that other countries are afraid of us and that that fear can lead them to take risks. and that we should be more introspective about the nature of their fear. this is not a judgment about moral -- this is not moral kwif lan si. i'm arguing that the nature of the american success of the united states in developing its power also leads to challenges. and the early '60s is a time where the united states tried to engage the soviets and they were dealing with a leader who didn't want engagement but revision. it's when he changes his mind that the system becomes more stabl

messier and it can be faster and has to be if we are going to co-evolve with the technology. it's actually difficult when i will give you an example and that the colleague here who is a former president of the labor and employment relations association liz and the industrialization world where when we try to do safety and manufacturing operations one of the hardest things is to do this error correction. the way you do it is with people reporting near misses. the problem with reporting near misses if you have to admit something that might have happened which is wrought social systems of not being blamed and having an event in which our trusted and not at risk in doing so, when you overcome those barriers, those deeply embedded assumptions actually some very powerful things can happen in social systems. but it's not an exponential process in most settings where we try to do that. >> i will make one other point on this. you get these massive communities sometimes 50 or 60 million people and you get a lot of toxic cave your. there is amazing research especially out of the league

process under the department or committee of homeland security in the house and its been a little more messier here in the senate which is not unusual in the commerce committee was taken up in past authorization of tsa and coast guard and we have a number of components and my staff keeps telling me the summer of 40 or percent and that is what we are here to talk about today. i think it's accurate to say that with the house authorization does is and this is what we do in these authorizations is take what dhs currently does and could buy it and record take recommendations and by reading your testimony it's pretty pleasing to see how many of the recommendations the department has made over a number of administrations to improve their operation. let's also admit this is not been an easy department to establish and operate. twenty-two agencies, missions and develop that unity of mission and we helped in the congress in working on some of the authorizations of that efforts and but we're trying to codify these things and there are a key changes and or new departments that want to codify the counterin

it's a little messier here in the senate, which is not unusual. the customers committee has taken up and passed authorize for tsa and coast guard. the judiciary has a number of components. we have -- my staff keeps telling me somewhere around 40% to 50% of dhs -- that's really what we're here to talk about today. i think it's accurate to say that with the house authorization does, and this is what you need to do in these authorizations, take what dhs currently does and codify it. take the recommendations from the gao and the i.g. reading your testimony, it's pleasing to see how many recommendations the department has made over a number of administrations to improve their operation. let's also admit that this has not been an easy department to establish and operate. 22 agencies cobbled together, divot missions trying to development that -- different missions trying to development that unity of mission. we helped a little bit in the last congress working on some of that effort, unity of effort but, again, we're trying to codify these things. there a

it's not going to go away and it could turn even messier still. last word to you. >> yes. the other big factor his china and whenever we are focused on north korea it tends to take our eye off the ball which is a threat to the united states. >> things for being with us today. >> a democrat senator reportedly texted with the russians to get in touch with the person who wrote the dossier. how about that. we are on it. back in a second. building a website in under an hour is easy with gocentral... ...from godaddy! in fact, 68% of people who have built their... ...website using gocentral, did it in under an hour, and you can too. build a better website - in under an hour. with gocentral from godaddy. retail. under pressure like never before. and its connected technology that's moving companies forward fast. e-commerce. real time inventory. virtual changing rooms. that's why retailers rely on comcast business to deliver consistent network speed across multiple locations. every corporate office, warehouse and store near or far covered. leaving every competitor, threat and challe

today because things are so much messier and more complicated, there is a much more informal and diverse of institutions. you have the paris climate agreement on nuclear nonproliferation, you have world powers coming together in an informal way to deal with the nuclear challenge. global health, it is no longer just the world health organization, but now public-private like global alliance and vaccines. of what today and part the united states has done is taken ingenuity and flexibility and created a set of institutions. the march april issue of foreign affairs, the world after trump. you say there is no doubt trump represents a meaningful threat to the health of the american democracy and the international system. how so? american democracy, what trump as basically suggested over the year and the office is that traditional democratic institutions, normal checks and balances, those are inconvenient to him and obstacles he ought to be able to push over. basicain set of democratic norms, starting with fundamental, which is that truth matters and the sense that you have got to make an argume

home depot's results last week, and we look at these results, they're messier than home depot.here's an activist investor now in lowe's. it seems that activist investor is having an impact on the company. this may reflect lowe's taking a much more aggressive tact towards investment and repositioning the company. >> interesting is this as simple as a market share story, they're willing to sacrifice profitability to try to compete with home depot or they spent so much money trying to refurbish stores? what are they spending money on? computer systems what did they need to do >> inventory >> envinventory, stocking? >> digging through results, gross margin down 70 basis points i'm guessing a bit here, but there could be something with regard to distribution or store level issues >> i think they mentioned inventory in their release that's one thing they would be working on >> is their internet strategy effective? they're building that out without having orders to justify the expense. is there anything to that. >> i don't know. it's early to worry about that because online sales are

then we saw war getting more complicated and messier even in somalia and then the army had a few problems, future exat systems, commanche crusader. many of those were canceled. your predecessors in uniform and the civilian work force did a lot of innovative things but the big programs were less successful. on top of that we have seen the pass of innovation picking up, noble here, noam in the united states military but in china and russia, secretary mattis mentioned when he unveiled it strategy a couple of weeks ago, we have a tremendous innovation in the country that the department of defense is not well placed to keep pace with in terms of the time cycles that silicon valley is capable of generating. so in terms of the past problems, but maybe more because of the rise of china and russia, you decided that you needed to do things differently, if i understand, there are two big things that you are aspiring to accomplish, one is to create these cross functional teams in six major areas of army technology. it involves the technologists and the war experts talking as a team. also i may have t
