mr. gonzalez carrying an envelope and mr. card. mr. nzalez began to discuss why they were there, to seek his approval for a matter, and explained what the matter was. and attorney general ashcroft then stunned me. he lifted his head off the pillow and in very strong terms expressed his view of the matter and then laid his head back down on the pillow, and seemed spent, and said to them, but that doesn't matter because i'm not the attorney general, there is the attorney general. and he pointed to me. >> so bush's men went back to the white house without the signature. >> the administration ignores comey's recommendation. >> the program was reauthorized without us, without a signature from the department of justice attesting as to its legality. and i prepared a letter of resignation. friday would be my last day. and monday morning, i would resign. >> on that friday, comey heads to the white house with fbi director robert mueller for a routine briefing. >> and as i was leaving the president asked to speak to me. he took me in his study and

mr. gonzalez here and many others like him, it is short-lived. for so many others, more long term. the families and these mothers and fathers who have been criminally charged waiting to see when their child will be by their side again. but christine and dave, short-term separation, long-term separation, these children certainly don't know the difference. >> paolo, thanks. >>> corey lewandowski defending the administration's zero tolerance border policy. listen to this exchange between the president's former campaign manager and democratic strategist on fox -- >> i read today about a 10-year-old girl with down syndrome who was taken from her mother and put in a cage -- >> wah-wah -- >> i read -- did you say "wah-wah" about a child with down syndrome -- how dare you? how dare you? how dare you, sir? >> creative talent from 21st century fox are condemning the company over coverage of the border crisis. steven levitan, co-creator and producer of "modern family" tweeting tuesday he would leave the network due to the fox news coverage.

doesn't like this whole sitting thing in your room mr gonzalez. so what do you think. excited to see him if position because i ses to be very absent from running biking their psyche everything. i think given that side books should be tried i think jim. i think anything that comes from technology would be good off the hall from now our gets to control the x. so you suit him so that there's four different buttons that would trigger the first time any one of the buttons would be the same. lead on the right this is easier. because you were more in control yeah it's kind of like i just have to figure out where to go. already the psychological benefits are clear for us it's not normal to be used creating your head up all the time. feels like you're. part of society a part of your communication and conversations again. you know the future is going to get really exciting just in the bio nick space in general i think you're going to be able to see someone come into an airplane in an exoskeleton and sit down and economy seat and you're going to see grandma at the mall and she's

mr. gonzalez fromhe tate of texas. mr. gonzalez: i rise today to remind the american people of the quick phrase that was used by the current administration, it's not our fault. it's not our fault. really? that's the sentiment that our u.s. attorney deflected of the responsibility for a zero tolerance policy that allows separation of children from their parents. in the month of may, this evil new policy led to the separation of more than 600 children in a short 13-day span. have we lost our human decency? we are a nation of laws. how can you explain that? they have not crossed the border illegally and they are being detained and families separated as if they are here illegally. this is a clear attack on immigrants who have exhausted every last resource to seek refuge in the nation that welcomed the tired, poor and huddled masses yes or noing to breathe free. have we forgotten the words poken by mark, to love thy neighbor as ourselves. and we are not taking responsibility? i think it is important to consider the challenges th

. >> thank you mr gonzalez. >> hi, my name is joe. i'm with the associate builders and contractors. thank you for having me here. i just want to say that all we want is for the pla to have a fair and open language and allow for all state approved apprentices as apprentices to work on it the contracts. and allow contractors to pay health and pension benefits into their employee ' owner plans to care for their families. that is all we want. thank you. >> thank you. >> am i starting? my name is tony, i was going to talk about the benefits that i've had. i've been in the union for 35 years. all we are saying is we want all workers that do our type of work, whether union or not to receive the same health benefits, the same pension, same benefits that we all receive. i have been out in the field and a union rep. i have seen workers being told not to sign their sheets back to report only four hours back and do a lot of stuff that they don't get the wages they are supposed to get. by us being present and their being at pla, it would help guard against this. the last time, 30 of our 60 contr

mr. gonzalez, welcome. >> good afternoon. to the commissioners, guests, brothers, sisters, you know, really wanted to take the time to come out and come into the city and acknowledge both mike and jim for all their hard work and also really to thank your board, your commission, on your support, your leadership, your guidance. you know, you -- you're here in the city and we're -- we cover a lot of the nine counties that this project covers. and jim touched on it a little bit. when you have mentors like jim and mike that have been in the industry and when you are looking at candidates to come into this industry, we have a lot of -- i just introduce myself. leonard gonzalez, sdek tifr director, -- executive director, labor center, northern california. we have work force development, training, working with contractors, and developing opportunities in the industry that may not have access to the jobs. and so when you have these individuals that are going out actively recruiting, guest speaking, shadowing. it's just a huge reel sou

mr. gonzalez? >> good afternoon. my name is rogelio gonzalez. i work for hoseley for two weeks. i'm an apprentice, and i'm very thankful that they teach me, and they take the time to teach you. so i'd just like to say that. thank you. >> thank you. is there any other public comment on this item? we may have questions for you. thank you. is there any other public comment? okay. public comment is closed. commissioner gilman? >> i don't have any questions. >> okay. commissioner woo ho? >> well, of course staff, i don't think you were the presenter, but i think you all took to task exactly what we said at the last commission. i think we just needed to have a better presentation to understand the background of the bidder as well as the l.b.e. component, which i think you all have done a brilliant job of doing that today, so i think we feel a lot more comfortable. i think we were not questioning whether this was the right decision or not, but we needed to make sure in our job to make sure we understoodl of the components and the qualifications and how this contract would be managed an

just doesn't like this whole sitting thing in your room mr gonzalez. so what do you think. i'm really excited to see in gift position because i had ceased to be very active in running biking there psyche everything. i think given that side books should be defined i think jim. i think any head that comes from technology would be good off the hall for now are gets to control the x. so you suit him so that there's four different buttons that would trigger the first time any one of the buttons would do the same. lead on the right this is easier. because you are more in control yeah it's kind of like i just have to figure out where to go. already the psychological benefits are clear for our it's not normal to be used creating your head up all the time. feels like you're. part of society a part of your communication and conversations again. you know the future is going to get really exciting just in the bio nick space in general i think you're going to be able to see someone come into an airplane and in an exoskeleton and sit down and an economy seat and you're going to see grand

mr. gonzalez telling us about the situation back in el salvador saying many people there and many parentsthe journey to the united states, who have no idea about this policy. >> translator: in my country i wasn't know fi-- wasn't notifie of this policy. had i known, i wouldn't have risked my son's life and stayed in my country. >> reporter: he was separated from his 7-year-old son by his side for a day and a half. it was certainly extremely painful, however he certainly is grateful that he at least has his child with him today and they told us about the situation inside of the shelters, places we've seen through video and pictures released by the government and also we've heard from some of the lawmakers who toured the facilities. these two individuals who we spoke to here on the streets describing some of the conditions there as inhumane before they were finally released and now headed to florida. but just goes to show you, after living and working on this border for many years, i could tell you there are very different dynamics here at play and some of those that are subjected to short-

mr. gonzalez? yes you may can you explain and how that was similar to or parallel to secretary clinton? >> but in that gonzalez case the fact that it wasn't to a third-party the classified information and some of those other factors overlapped in this matter. >> the fbi has been referred to in your report find the bank and file were at all guilty of bias? >> not at all they work hard to create a strong reputation and conduct like this creates such a harmful reputation that is why it is so important to avoid having this actively occurs. >> to say the confidence in our system of law enforcement and public prosecution is important with the rule of law and i agree with you. you say they were the den of thieves and to reading to the sour climate with rule of law? >> i will stick to it we have concluded and others can assess. >> is there a den of thieves at the fbi? >> with this investigation or any others we have not identified. >> i yield back the balance of my time. [inaudible] >> can i get ten more second. [laughter] >> is it true regarding the investigation of the e-mail servers you have

mr. gonzalez grandfather came here. he had nothing. he went through ellis island.hey told him if he was going to live off the government, turn around and go home because they were not going to support him. this country would not take care of him. he ended up having to come here, work his way to get enough money to send for my grandmother, my great-grandmother, and his sisters and brothers. he worked his tail off. they compare now, people come here now and they come in a legally and they are given welfare benefits, places to live , they are getting things. i have seen them in grocery stores where i live and they are giving out their welfare cards to the cashier at the grocery line for ebt cd for groceries. guest: that is a huge misconception. in fact, illegal immigrants who are here illegally do not qualify for welfare, do not qualify for student loans, do not qualify for any freebies. that is a huge misconception. you can read that on the internet or off news channels that people listen to. it is absolutely false. by the way, i congratulate you and the story of you

mr. gonzalez? >> yes. >> can you explain to us a little bit about the decision not to prosecute alberto gonzalez and how that was similar to or parallel to secretary clinton? >> well, i think the issue there, and i'd have to go back and refresh myself on the gonzalez case, but it was the fact that it wasn't being sent to a third party who -- classified information was being provided to a third party, and some of the other factors overlapped with the factors in this matter according to the prosecutor's assessment. >> the fbi has been referred to in somewhat disparaging terms since this report. did your report find that the rank and file of the fbi were at all guilty of bias? >> no, not at all. as we lay out in the conclusion they have worked hard to create a strong reputation, and as we know conduct like this creates such harm to that reputation that's been built up that that's why it's in part so important to address and to avoid having this kind of activity occur. >> mr. chairman gowdy, my friend,

mr. jose grinda gonzalez. you displayed in court some messages to you and spoke about threats. i just wanted to ask you to speak in that regard. how your life changed after this investigation began. do you need to take precautions in everyday life? what they are exactly and the second question is, what level of law enforcement and prosecutors you mentioned that is some of the cases, your pretty sure that they will continue the investigation against some people that you indicted. it is probably in other cases. thank you. >>. >> thank you first of all we who investigate organized crime in general and people in particular with me and entice. first, contrary -- they have done that to me actually. and honestly, i don't care. i am supported by my agency and by the spanish government. and then a second threat is a physical threat. i can't really say what's happening. because there is an investigation against those that order my killing. and i cannot really talk about someone who was to kill me. i do not want to smear him. in any case, i am quite confident regarding my social vegetatio
