mr. chairman. i just wanted to take -- first of all, mr. hastings, i'm a firm believer we should celebrate the whole month when it is your birthday. be prepared, it could be a long one. as one of the newest members of the appropriation committee, i wanted to express my appreciation are fot hard work that goes on in that committee. and it is hours as a rules committee that on a seasonal basis. and both of these sub committees have had to accept the challenge of not only investing into the future that mentioned on several occasions already, also solving problems currently faced, all with a smaller amounts of money to spend doing it. and i think that you've done a good job of rising to that challenge. and just wanted to acknowledge all of your work and all of your committee members' work. rising to that occasion. i appreciate that, mr. chairman. also, i just wanted to make a comment that we've, it's not an open system, i guess, by definition, but certainly when you have well over 1,000 amendments that are offered and a third to have of them li

mr. trump and the white house because all of america including the republican party knows that mr. trump might go putin something, so he is blocked and checked and not going to be able do favors to russia for a long time to come. mr. harris: putin will be over the next 18 months. over the next 18 months. do you see this rivalry heating up going into that? is it structural joined the west and russia or all based upon putin's anger over the breakup. do you foresee this ever getting better? i'm not sure if this answers your question, but i would be quite certain that the u.s. is not going to play not leastp --tat, because it will not be a fair election. i'm sure you know something about this, there is a sense in russia that this society is original, there might be some interesting opposition. enough toe potent keep him from getting another term. i do think sense russia now is , it issent at russia modernizing to some degree and we can hope that maybe mr. putin , who has brought back some much of the past will be the last russian leader to do that. thank you for being our guest on news

mr. speaker, all life is a miracle. and we have an obligation here to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves. i look forward of the house passing this compassionate bill next week that will protect the lives of countless others like mica. the house will take up f.y. 2018 budget resolution that will balance within 10 years and provides for a strong national defense, eliminates burdensome regulation and cracks down on waste, fraud and abuse and will enable tax reform which is the key to economic growth and seeing that americans take more of their hard-earned dollars. i thank chairman black and the entire budget committee and especially you, mr. speaker, for your hard work on this bill. and with that, i yield to my friend. mr. hoyer: i thank the gentleman for the information on the schedule to come. 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 r

mr. speaker, we all think our amendments are the greatest amendments to be known. mr. scott led, his credit, saying i am glad so many my amendments were made in order but i am appalled one amendment was kept out. we all want all of our amendments in. but to my friend from new york's comment that democrats don't get a fair shake, i'll remind you, mr. speaker, when my friend was leading the committee, the entire house of 139 sentatives was offered chances to change the appropriations bill in 2009, last time we completed it. with paul ryan leading the institution, with my friend from texas, pete sessions, leading the rules committee, we made 224 democratic amendments in order. let me say that again. i'm sorry. 214 democratic amendments in order. we have made more minority amendments in order in this process than my friends on the other side made in order for the entire house. mr. speaker, we have nothing to fear from openness. we have nothing to fear from a robust debate, and i am so glad we had a chance to do that. but history should be reported accurately, and the accura

mr. rubio: all right. reporter: can you tell us what you asked vice president pence or what you discussed? mr. rubio: one of the challenges we have is the logistics. in essence, we have a lot of people standing up and forward of the private sector, willing to bring in aid and assistance. for example, many of the major telecoms want to bring in equipment to begin to restore telecommunications. the challenge is, one, you have to get them there. even if they could fly themselves, they need the air space, the time to land. second, they need distribution. they need to have access from the airport to the places where they're most needed. power generation is an enormous challenge. the practical point that you have to -- all of these electrical polls -- poles that were snapped, they have to be replaced. that stockpile doesn't exist in puerto rico. on the island. it has to be barged in. barges take seven days from jacksonville, five days from miami. some of the areas outside of san juan where there's still no commun

mr. speaker. first of all, with regard to the underlying bill that is being brought before the house today, a whole bunch of appropriations bills, bunched together in an unprecedented way, i would say in an undemocratic way as well. nobody was -- nobody has had a chance to read these bills. over 1,300 pages. i don't think anybody in this chamber has read them all. close to 1,000 amendments were submitted. they were all asked to be submitted before we came back into session. while people were still on work recess. i don't think members have had a chance to review all the amendments. as i said, hundreds of good amendments have been rejected. and i -- i said last night in e rules committee, i invoked senator john mccain's name, he wrote a piece in which he called on congress to go back to regular order. i agree with him. we ought to go back to regular order. that's what the speaker of the house promised when the took the gavel. we would have regular order. this is not regular order. this is not the way we should

likely to be part of a coalition with the mrs merkel all the free democratic. liberal pro-business they film charisma and photogenic media has appeared front and center however he does appear to have lifted so of his migration policy right out of the alternative think jodi playbook if peace prevails refugees must be. such human rights for choosing your place in the womb. i'm not being harsh this is really speaking a thing the a.f. did may prove to be a wise move as he looks to shore up his own party's position basically this is just a political maneuver to get more voters from this from this side of the spectrum f.t.p.'s at the moment constantly collecting in all kinds of fields voters for example with all these digital subjects and now with this new statement about refugees they try to pick of course also people from they if the from the right wing side. has already ruled out forming a coalition with the left party the greens this time out it's at the lagging way behind in the polls there is even the possibility that we could see into the grand coalition with

mr. chairman. i wanted to take first of all mr. hastings, i am a firm believer that you should celebrate a whole month whenever it is your birthday so be prepared it could be a long one. as one of the newest members of appropriations committee i want to express my appreciation for the hard work that goes on. probably the only other one i know of that spends long hours is the rules committee. both of these subcommittees have had to accept the challenge of not only investing into the future and mentioned on several occasions already, also solving problems currently faced all with smaller amounts of money to spend doing it. i think you have done a good job of rising to that challenge. i just wanted to acknowledge all of your work and all of your committee members' work rising to that occasion. so appreciate that, mr. chairman. also, just wanted to make a comment. it's not an open system i guess by definition but certainly when you have well over 1,000 amendments that are offered and a third, a half of them likely will be accepted if n

thank you all, it's great to be with you. [applause] >> thank you, mr. attorney general, for those remarks this talk has atrabted considerable interest from the student body as well as my colleagues. we have questions that have been submitted by students in attendance today. many of these questions are actually similar. they ask about the same question. i have to say the most popular question concerned, you may be is -- you may be surprised to hear this, the nfl. so here's one iteration of. can you comment on the recent debate over nfl player protests? does it concern you that these players are being condemned by many including the president, for exercising their constitutional right to free speech? mr. sessions: the president has free speech rights too. he sends soldiers out every day to defend this country under the flag of the united states, under the national anthem and the unity that those symbols call on us to adhere to. so i agree that it's a big mistake to protest in that fashion. because it weakens the commitment that we have to this nation that

so we're all a little bit confused here. mr. ryan: that's why had this was not a negotiation, it was a discussion. reporter: my question is, first, did the president shed any light on what his preferences would be? and also, do you think something like the dream act -- would you support that or would your conference support that? mr. ryan: what i'm going to do is negotiate with colleagues. what i'm going to do is get consensus with our members and no offense but i'm not going to negotiate through the media. that is not in our interest, that is not how legislation is drafted. so what we're going to do is get our consensus and we're having the conversations with our members right now. while we negotiate a compromise. which there will be a compromise. we believe this will occur. and this compromise will include border security and enforcement so that we don't wind up with another daca problem 10 years down the road. reporter: mr. speaker, how do you as one of the most prominent leaders of the republican party keep this from tearing

mr trump is worrying people around him that they may get involved in the criminal prosecution by being associated with some of the activities that are under review that's my only way to figure out all the leaking going on mr kelly a strong man chief of staff do something about. oh probably going back to george washington every president i'd states has tried to stop leaking in among his rank so i would say mr kelley don't waste your time it was richard nixon's desire to stop the leaks that actually got him in trouble with obstruction of justice and ultimately war gate the only thing you can do is inspire loyalty among people and they're going to be talking to the media what is a leak it's somebody who's a reporter calling you on the phone can you comment on something and my answer would be i can't comment to you on the record but there's something about president clinton you should know i'll be on background that's what's called a leak means not for attribution this white house like every white house does that with reporters and they should do it if it's in defense of the president was unusual here are the number of people within the president's inner circle on background without at
