cole, write about the law that mr. biden used to approach his plan. they say that mr. biden's debt forgiveness scheme is far more expanse conservative if a questionable reading of the two-decade-old law. law makers passed it in the wake of the terrorist attacks and it was up likely they were issuing student loan relief. the straightforward reading of the law's purpose is it permits -- to those who struggle to repay their loan as a direct result of a serious emergency. i guess all that to say this: could the president have used a better approach in this plan of his? >> guest: well, we didn't know it would be an entire pandemic for almost three year at this point. recognizing there's still a lot of people who have been impacted by covid-19pa that often times those who are most impacted come from poor households. we havete to recognize that student loan. cancellation is a tool to really crease this moment in time. folks are still facing economic barriers. folks are still recovering, folks are still struggling to have jobs. young people have had to be in school and still pa

now, those words, that reporting seems to paint mr. biden's recent trip to care of as a mission to let mr. zalinski know that time is not on his side. like, you know, you gotta get giddy up here. right? because support from both americans and european leaders could a road at some point if it isn't starting to a road already. look at this recent story in the new york times. right. very recent headline. the wes tried to isolate russia. it didn't work new york times. and here's the article, oh, here's what the article says about european and other countries commitment, or lack thereof, quote, even some of the nations that initially agreed to denounce russia, see the war as somebody else's problem. and have since started to move toward a more neutral position the archives. right. so the point being raised by a legitimate news outlets like to wall street journal like the new york times, like to post is the same as the one that mr. biden seemed to be whispering to mister zalinski, look times not on your side. and here is part of the reason for that. for ukraine to succeed in this conflict wi

it also says mr biden�*s chest has healed well, and he will be monitored for further developments. ica correspondent peter bowes gave us more information about the president's condition. well, president biden had his annual physical last month. we were told the bottom line from the doctor's report was that he was fit for duty, but what we weren't told was that he had this lesion removed and some tissue was sent away for testing. the result of that is now in and, as you say, it was determined that it was cancerous, a basal cell carcinoma, which is a form of cancer that does not easily spread to other parts of the body, and we were told that the president does not need any further treatment, that he is healing nicely on the spot on his chest where the lesion was removed and that the doctors will of course continue to monitor his health. and, peter, just how common is this condition in the us? it's very common. in fact, this is the most common form of skin cancer. in fact, it is one of the most common forms of all cancers. this particular skin cancer, about 3.6 million cases are diagno

mr biden said the two countries' prosperity was deeply connected to their shared security.nadian prime minister, justin trudeau, pledged to stand together against authoritarian regimes. president biden also addressed rumours about the chinese government supplying arms to russia. i don't take china lightly, i don't take russia lightly, but i think we vastly exaggerate. i have been hearing now for the past three months about "china is going to provide significant weapons to russia," and they haven't yet. it doesn't mean they won't, but they haven't yet. if anything has happened, the west has coalesced significantly more. how about the quad? how aboutjapan and the united states and south korea? how about what we have done in terms of aukus? so i just want to put it in perspective. i don't take it lightly what china and russia are doing, and it could get significantly worse, but let's put it in perspective. we are united, a coalition. we — we — the united states and canada. president and canada. biden speaking in washington president biden speaking in washington there. our corr

analysts say black voters remain a key constituency in mr biden�*s expected bid for re—election nextunder assault. the conservative supreme court has gutted the voting rights act over the years. since the 2020 election, a wave of state and dozens, dozens of anti— voting laws, fuelled by the big lie and the election denies now elected to office. the new law here in alabama, among other things, enacted a new congressional map that discriminated against black voters. by failing to include what should have been a new predominantly black district. in that case, as you all know better than i, is in front of the supreme court. and the us department ofjustice has joined many of you in arguing that the map violates the voting rights act. earier i spoke tojoe watkins, a civil rights advocate and former aide to president george w bush. i asked him why president biden claimed fundamental voting rights are under attack. he knows he doesn't yet have the support legislatively to pass strong voting rights legislation. it's something thatjohn lewis tried to get pasedd before he died. it has been a he

at this point, the congress has forced mr. biden to si off on limited oil and gas releases.elow would be one of the few projects he has approved freely without a court order or coressionalandate. it comes after the international agent the -- said the government must stop approving thoil project if the plan is to avert e most catastrophic impact to climatchange. the administration made the internal calculations that it did not want to spike conocophillips. and it was approved under the trump administration. conocophillips has held the drilling site for more than two decades and the administration attorneys are refusing a permanent could trigger a lawsuit that would cost the government as much as $5 biion. conocophillips was looking for five permits and the biden administration negotiated it down to three. still with reports, it allows conocophillips to drill for 90% of the oil that they were hoping to get. at the white house, yesterda the white house press secretary adess president biden's decision on allowing this project go forward. >> president cap his word wh he -- where

all they really had to do was go into their own coverage coverage of mr. biden saying this, if russian vase that means tanks or troops crossing the on the border of ukraine again, then there will be we, there will be no longer a nor stream to we will bring it into it. but how will you, how will you do that? exactly. since the project and control of the project is within germany's control, we will, i promise you will be able to do it got to love this marker. that was after, according to mr. hirsch's reporting, mr. biden had already been involved in meetings on how possibly they would destroy the pipelines by the way, you got to love just the way he presented. right? and then one final thing about why the, her story should probably not have been ignored. and this is important because i know many of you are watching us from all over the world, probably millions and millions and millions of you. and maybe you're not familiar with mr. hurst. maybe you're not familiar with mr. hurst his work. so let me add something. seymour hersh is journalistically speaking, a legend. and this may sound al

six republican—controlled states have brought the case — arguing mr biden is exceeding his powers.ut to go undercover... are you ready? ..investigating crisis pregnancy advice centres. if you feel like it's getting too much, just leave. hi, it's lissa and ella. there are dozens of these centres in the uk claiming to provide support with unplanned pregnancies. we reveal evidence some centres are giving misleading advice.

mr. biden's personal data was made public causing harm to mr. biden and his reputation.den's claim is that he had a year under delaware law to claim his property and that wasn't respected. he's not claiming his property. >> it's not necessarily mine. but if it were, that would be an invasion of my property. there is no rational attempt to check the boxes. just remember the story arc of hunter biden's laptop. first it was hacked and russian disinformation. they did not claim it's defamation. they are not claiming hunter biden was defamed. in a defamation lawsuit, there is one ultimate defense in defamation is the truth. the last thing hunter biden wants to litigate is the truth of crack pictures and hooker pictures and dirty business dealing perhaps involving his father on the world stage. he wants to suggest this is an invasion of his privacy and it's a joke from start to finish. dan: i think this will be calamitous. you on your podcast, you spoke to john paul mcisaac. that leads me to topic number two. we love "fox and friends." so we thought we are putting the show tog

according to mr. hirsch's reporting, mr. biden had already been involved in meetings on how possibly they would destroy the pipelines by the way, you got to love just the way he presents it. right? and then one final thing about why the, her story should probably not have been ignored. and this is important because i know many of you are watching us from all over the world, probably millions and millions and millions of you and, and maybe you're not familiar with mr. hurst. maybe you're not familiar with mr. hurst his work. so let me add something. seymour hersh is journalistically speaking a legit. and then this may sound almost weird because it doesn't happen any more. it seems like it doesn't happen any more or less. but reporters are supposed to question their governments leaders not to p. r for them, in fact, they're supposed to have an adversarial relationship with them. that's what we're actually trott when we, when we study the stuff in journalism school, have an adversarial relationship. sy, hersh petima epitomizes that type of journalism. mean this guy broke the meal. i mas

host: the editors of the washington post write about the law that mr. bidensed to approaches plan. they say mr. biden's debt forgiveness scheme is far more expensive than the two deck -- the two decade old law. could the president have used a that are approaching this plan of his? guest: we didn't know we would be in a pandemic for almost three years so recognizing there are so many people who have been impacted by covid-19 and often times, those most impacted come from poor households. we have to recognize student debt cancellation is progressive and not regressive. it's to address this moment in time. folks are still facing economic barriers and recovering and still struggling to have jobs. young people have had to be in school and still pay coition and do it virtually. it might be a plus or negative depending on your learning style. we have to recognize there are so many more amazing things we can do when we provide this relief and cancel student debt. it would give people the opportunity to apply the system and the president is using everything in his pow

i had frequent telephone conversations with him, but the fact is that mr. biden thing, while in ukraine they did something else in these states. in ukraine, he constantly received representatives of the maidan at his embassy. we knew this very well, we monitored it , and the impression was created that there was a headquarters in the united states embassy that was managing this process. in early february 2014, as the maidan crisis was increasingly under control, a phone call was intercepted between u.s. assistant secretary of state for european and eurasian affairs victoria united nations and u.s. ambassador to ukraine in jeff pite, one cannot help but wonder about the authenticity of a leaked private conversation between two senior u.s. diplomats. i think i'm the right person to quote. he has experience in the economy of his reign , he only needs these klitschkos to remain outside. i just think that if klitschko passes on

mr. biden's largest failure is promising his budget will keep america safe instead of leveling about the threats. end of quote. we have -- should have a return of bipartisan support for defending american families. in conclusion, god bless our troops who successfully protected america for 20 years as the global war on terrorism continues moving from afghanistan to the safe haven of america. thank you, prime minister of japan, for the courage to visit kyiv, ukraine, this week, as democracies unite against war criminal putin. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from massachusetts rise? >> unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. mr. mcgovern: mr. speaker, i rise to place in the record the names of three nicaraguan political prisoners among those released and sent to the united states on february 23, 2023. luis carlos tanoko. carlo maldonado. and nadir cisneros join the massive protests in nicaragua in april, 2018. all were denied due p

the time being, you could still see and hear the displeasure, and also i think the scepticism that mr bidener all of this. and then we had this extraordinary late—night series of tweets from the israeli prime minister last night, thoroughly rebuking mr biden, saying that of course they were the best of friends and the most enduring of allies but that israel was a sovereign country and it was not going to listen to pressures from abroad stops so, a very strong message, this is not the first time by any means that mr netanyahu has fallen out with the democratic us administration, but i think itjust adds to this sense of pressure, sense of tension, that this thing still isn't resolved. bud sense of tension, that this thing still isn't resolved.— sense of tension, that this thing still isn't resolved. and how would ou still isn't resolved. and how would you characterise _ still isn't resolved. and how would you characterise the _ still isn't resolved. and how would you characterise the state - still isn't resolved. and how would you characterise the state of - still isn't resolved. and how woul

mr. biden's proposal sees a large and growing gap, even wi the promise to cut the deficit by $3 trillion over the coming decade, primarily by raising taxes, the annual deficit remains stuck at around 5% gdp. as a result, federal debt continues to rise reaching 110% of gdp in 2033, up from 97% now. this morning, getting a reaction to the president budget request to congress and the numbers he lays out this morning. $6.9 trillion budget request. take a look at what the wall street journal put together in their paper today. the base discretionary funding request by department and agency by billions. the largest bubble there $842 billion for the defense department. hhs, health and human services, $145 billion. veteran affairs almost $138 billion dollars. state and international programs , $70 billion. homeland security, $60 billion. energy, $52 billion. justice department, nearly $40 billion. agriculture department, nearly $30 billion. transportation, 28 billion dollars. nasa, $27 billion. the treasury department, 16 billion dollars. the labor department would get $15 billion. once you get y

but i think mr. biden is doing the right thing by supporting the ukrainians. russia invades ukraine that's an autocracy trying to destroy democracy by force. that's place where you have to look ukrainians are taking a risk, they remind us that democracy requires us taking a risk. >> interestingly though, when russia invades ukraine, it's not an abstraction. this was a democracy that may ceased to be a democracy. the other stuff you talk about the threat to the rule of law, the threat to an independent cue dishsy like in israel, democracy is under threat because of all of these things. everybody in israel, israelis in israel have a vote. people still vote in iran and russia but they're not democracies. >> everyone claims to be a democracy. russia claims to be a democracy and claiming to be a democracy they erode, day take the sense, the meaning away from the word. that's their design. our weakness as we say we have trouble defining what makes a democracy work. the war in ukraine is clarified in a different way. one reason they're doing so well is civil society.

one of them, mr. bidenuntries, among them iraq, not to enter the u.s., then secluded iraq i remember, but still what i did in somalia because it was also secluded, so i flew to somalia to bring somalia and iraq together and we sign an agreement with the authority in every way to the north -- since both of them are sister cities of minneapolis. we built that triangle as a reaction for mr. trump. but at the same time, i sent a letter inviting mr. trump to come and learn about the facts, how a muslim family operates and how the muslim family conducts its business with the neighbors, with the kids, with school teachers if you come and stays with us at home to watch us rather than to listen to the mainstream media. the mainstream media and u.s., they picture the muslims as terrorists. in the mainstream media and the middle east, they picture the european and the western among them, the americans, as infidels. here comes the duty of peacemaker teams, the muslim peacemaker teams ring both together. the infidel and

mr. biden wants to spend political capital on this issue, he should focus on using -- congress using fast track authority they have to give the fdic the authority to provide a broa broad-based money. this is something we did during the crisis we did it temporarily. the problem now is, you do these one offs these two are systemic and we are helping first republic with the banks. who else is the government going to help? what about the rest of them? the impression is being formed, particularly with community banks, they are not getting help, which will mean their uninsured deposits will say, maybe we should go to a bigger bank that's not helpful i do think this thing keeps getting worse. he needs to go to the hill and get fast track authority, provide a temporary broad-based guarantee. >> would this have happened if the dodd-frank rollback hadn't taken place? would they still have bad bets on the spread on interest rates still have gone under? is there a way to -- >> i think so. >> is there a way

last week, mr. bidenllowing the lord macron , suggested that a shift in emphasis to diplomacy would probably be necessary after possible successes. ukraine in the spring and summer counter-offensive that us and other western officials are hoping for , a senior european official said ukraine's eastern european allies fear coordinated pressure from major western capitals to coax mr. zelensky into negotiations. i disagree with the wall street journal very often, especially with their opinion column articles, actually, when it comes to facts about the news. this newspaper is quite reliable, maybe the most reliable in the united states here. how do you interpret? it is that in the united states a war begins in the administration, more and more they think that e preached a ram to dream, but you need to start. in general, seriously think about diplomacy, or is this a premature conclusion. you know, i think that last week uh passed uh, there was a team at the headquarters uh, an exercise on maps, uh, on which , b
