mr. brooks. >> good morning, commissioners. eric brooks, californians for energy choice, and our city san francisco. we were preparing comments, important comments, which we tried to email you this morning. not sure if you got them or not. it was very hard to do that when we only saw this report two days ago. and so, first the positive. this is an excellent report. it's got all kinds of key information that we need to build a renewable energy network in san francisco. but this is not the renewable energy plan that we have been asking for for 15 years. this is not a plan. we do not believe that the sfpuc can be the agency to draft a plan. this -- this report does not create a plan to include energy efficiency, demand response, smart meters. and all of the diversified research, all planned as the sydney, australia, plan that you have all hopefully seen now to be integrated together as resources to get us to 100% local renewables and regional renewables for san francisco within 10 years as the ipcc recommends urgently. this just i

mr. brooks said. you know, we work with a lot of boards and commissions around the region, to do a lot of work at the bay area quality management district. and, you know, we hear a lot about 2030 goals and we've been talking about 2030 goals for a long time now. now we have officially entered the period where 2030 is one 10-year capital plan away. we're talking by 2030, combustion engines need to x, y and z. and by 2030 we need to stop our use of fossil fuels or emissions from fossil fuels. we have how many e.v.s will be on the road and so many different plans for 2030. and we've been kicking the can down the road for so long and we're now at the point where we're literally one 10-year capital plan away from this huge milestone. these things are going to take time, putting together a buildout plan that is comprehensive and systematic and then implementing that, probably going to take over 10 years. so where are we going to be by 2030? so i think that the democratic policy of this city and county expec

mr. brooks: -- mrs. brooks: madam speaker, i rise today today to express my strong support for the legislation we've been talking about today, not only h.r. 2881, the secure 5-g and beyond act, but now h.r. 4500, promoting u.s. wireless leadership act. i want to commend my colleagues, the chair of the subcommittee, chairman doyle, ranking member latta, as well as my colleagues that i've been working with, both representative dingell and walberg. we have come together because we know these two bipartisan bills are critically important to secure our communications networks and protect our next generation telecommunications systems and the mobile infrastructure in the u.s. from dangerous foreign actors. as the co-founder and the co-chair, with my colleague from michigan, of the 5-g caucus, we understand how important it is that our laws protect 5-g innovation, but also how critically important it is to keep our citizens and country safe. i also represent a portion of indianapolis, indiana, an original test s

acknowledging the tricky dynamic that mrs. brookssked about. >> well, i think i would first consider that yes, you want to increase capacity, particularly i think there is a value and doing the increasing capacity in the form of staff. where do you put those stats? i think it does not look great when you say we will put a whole bunch more in my personal office. but if you start saying, well, we are going to increase the quantity of employees who are at sonorous or cbo. nobody outside this town is going to get particularly upset about, that and in fact that sort of stuff has been happening. there had been increase in the appropriations these agencies and only as far as i can tell is getting clobbered in the polls because of it so, that would be one way to look at doing it. and committees also, again, it is very hard to be accused of hiring a new limo driver because you're paying a personal staff well and if you are having this expertise in committee and who knows of oversight, oversight, oversight, this will strengthen oversight, i th

mr. brooks. >> aye. >> the committee approved three articles of impeachment, obstruction of justice, contempt of cause, abuse of power. >> aye. >> aye. >> no. mr. o' dean. >> aye. >> he left the room and cried. official impeachment would come later with a full house vote. >> it never happened. a count down for the expected and the nixon's presidency. tonight at 9:00, the president of the united states will address the nation. it was awful. the impeachment the framers had imagined. it worked. democracy worked. >> there is the president waving good-bye. the scandal itself triggered a lot of faith in government and politicians. it would be 25 years before impeachment would come up again. this time it was a completely different story. if your glasses aren't perfect, we'll fix them. so will we. no we won't. use your 2020 vision insurance on your first pair and get 50% off a second pair. visionworks. see the difference. robinwithout the commission fees. so, you can start investing today wherever you are - even hanging with your dog. so, what are you waiting for? download now and get your first stoc

brooks. on the point mr. clever just made. dr.udak, you wrote a book about this, not only the authorities been given to the executive but how that has gone. how is the work with the executive branch on the show, is it all sunshine and rainbows? >> they were spot on about the history of earmarks and bipartisan support for that type of participation and those behaviors. in the executive branch, there is transparency of earmarking which is problematic. certainly where congress was before the band went into effect. what happens with federal agency is there is an easy understanding of where a president's political interests are. they are making sure that swing states get a lot of money and that those swing states get a lot of money particularly in an advance o advance of an election, some agencies get right and some agencies get wrong. this is easy and does not need to be telegraphed. you don't need the president to be pulling strings or meetings to be held. everybody knows what presidents are interested in and presidents of both parti

mr. brooks, welcome to "mad money.y that there is no -- nothing cheap in this market, that it's moved so much and there isn't anything left. i have to tell you gentlemen, this is one of the cheapest stocks i have ever seen. how do we get the value out of it >> the combination of these two excellent companies in five of the most powerful economic markets in the country, texas as well as colorado, denver and the execution, the exceptional execution of that combination should create a powerhouse >> keith, what i'm looking at, this is the best state in the union. it's the state that benefitted the most from salt, a state doing well with or without oil non-performers really down are people just not aware? >> i think it's a combination of things, jim. at the end of the day, the bank stocks generally have trade down. >> right. >> since the merger announcement so that's accentuated this downtick the others that have announced moes this year have experienced similar volatility. >> yes >> i do believe it's a show me, and we're a

mrs. brooks: madam speaker, i rise today in strong support of h.r. 2153, keeping girls in school act. i want to thank my very good friend from florida, representative frankel, for championing this incredibly important legislation and also for my colleague representative mccaul of texas for helping ensure that this -- that this was through the house foreign affairs committee. i'm the mother of a daughter and from birth, i let her know that she could be anything she wanted to be. if she wanted to be a lawyer, a doctor, a nurse, a teacher, an engineer, she could do whatever she wanted. but we all know too well that many girls around the world are not so lucky. as my good friend and representative frankel just talked about, mullala of pakistan was shot returning from school. i'm proud that my home of indianapolis, the children's museum of indianapolis, will be inducting her into the power of children museum because she has fought for human rights. the human rights of girls and children being able to

mr. secretary, to brookings. he is a battle-hardened veteran of the department of defense and you would be hard-pressed to find a more dedicated public servant, a better professional, and a more loyal friend of the united states army and our institution. i say that of course notwithstanding the outcome of the army/navy game this year, for which i think he would argue about responsibility. but his promotion to being the secretary of the army is a great plus for our country and for the army. now, with so many real and potential challenges on the horizon, our u.s. army has no choice but to adapt to an increasingly uncertain future. a future of complex and evolving threats and an environment of increasingly technology colonel sophistication, rapid change, and lethality. that is especially true of today's topic which is the indo-pacific region, although i know the secretary is focused with laser-like clarity not just on the indo-pacific but the middle east and north africa and europe and elsewhere, because the army is

mr. brooks. made, dr.. cleaver hudak, you wrote a book on this phenomena -- not only the authority given to the executive , but how that has gone. can you take a minute or so, how has it worked with the executive branch running the show? has it all been sunshine and rainbows or has that authority been abused? remarks, mr. your cleaver, they were spot on both about the history of earmarks and i think the bipartisan support for that participation in those behaviors. in the executive branch there's far less trans parity -- transparency about earmarks. and what happens within federal agencies is there is an easy understanding of where president's political interests are. they are making sure that swing states get a lot of money and that those swing states get a lot of money particularly in advance of an election. this is not some complex political dynamic that some agencies get right and some get wrong. this is very easy and does not need to be telegraphed. you don't need the president to be pulling the strings
