so supervisor >> may i like to ask the budget analyst mr. fred to come and do a brief presentation the question was to provide information that analyze the profits that are being gained from some of the evictions typical the ellis act eviction that provides context for us to understand the financial benefits that some of the landlords have in doing evictions to provide some context for what is fair in terms of relocate. >> chair winn and supervisors fred from the budget analysis offices. your office reviewed records for 15 properties and objected records from the rent board and determined the ellis act evictions have occurred my using the records we were able to determine the sale price and post evictions and the sale price the most recent sale prices prior to the evictions then the 15 properties we were able to see the profit for selling the property. we issued a report and it has the details on the properties the average level of profits it was $1.5 million or a hundred and 16 percent increase observe the prior sale amount. those are all inflat

fred, with so much popularity at home, so much domestic support, why would mr. putin simply stop now at crimea? >> well, exactly. it's within of the things he's been saying is that he does not intend to move russian forces into anywhere else. doesn't intend to move russian forces into the east of ukraine, but certainly it doesn't appear as though western sanctions or western backlash is something that factors very much into his calculation about what he's going to do politically or militarily. there was a gigantic rally here in moscow last night to celebrate crimea becoming part of the russian federation. of course, in russia's view, there's no other country that's actually recognized that yet. but it was a massive rally that came right after vladimir putin's speech. and as you say, the approval ratings speak their own language and also one of the numbers that was quoted as well, 95% of russians also are in favor of this move. are in favor of crimea being a part of russia again. so it certainly is the fact that while vladimir putin is being condemned internation

mr. updike. any questions? all right. with that like to bring up our civil grand jury to respond. >> good morning, supervisors. i'm fred rodriguez. i was the chair of the committee he that worked on this report ~. a third of our civil grand jury devoted a year to this topic. i was unfortunately not able to be here when this came up six months ago in september, i think. supervisor chiu was there, but supervisor tang what not. and i just would like to just give a little bit of background as to why this report was done. we were aware of earlier reports that dealt with surplus property, that the school district had, as well the budget analyst report to the board of supervisors at the request of supervisor farrell about surplus property and under utilized property owned by the city itself. i think part of the inspiration for the report came from the fact that 170 fell street had been boarded up and since then for 25 years, in the interim city hall has been raised and retrofitted. the de young museum has been rebuilt. the eastern span of the bay bridge has been rebuilt, but 170 fell street is in the heart of the civic area s

mr. obama reportedly raised concerns about russia's plan for possible intervention in ukraine. no word on president putin's response to those confirmed. we've got freditkin. but also jim acosta. >> reporter: it's been a week and a day since the two leaders spoke, a senior administration official confirms president obama spoke with vladimir putin earlier today. we expect a read out from the white house shortly as to what they discussed during that phone call. as you know, jim, the kremlin got the jump a little bit on the white house here in terms of what the contents of that call were. and it does seem that vladimir putin and president obama have a disagreement here as to who is responsible for the unrest, the uncertainty in ukraine. vladimir putin according to a statement coming out of the kremlin says that this is due to ultranationalists in ukraine. so we're waiting to see exactly what the white house has to say about this phone call and what the president expressed. one thing we should also point out is that the deputy national security adviser over here at the white house, ben rhodes, who serves under susan rice, tweeted out just a few moments a

mr. geithner, thank you very much. >> good to be here, larry. >> ex-chairman and ceo fred smith.better businessman in this country, i don't know him. fred, welcome back to the show. >> thank you, larry, for that kind introduction. >> donald trump, welcome back to "the kudlow report." i appreciate it. >> good, larry. >> massachusetts governor mitt romney. governor romney, welcome back to the show. >> thanks, larry, good g. to be with you. >> i'm wliev live at the republican convention in tampa, florida. >> mr. cantor, we appreciate it. >> budget chairman paul ryan, we appreciate your time very much this morning. i personally do. >> great to be back with you, larry. thanks for having me. >> all right. great stuff. wonderful memories. jimmy cramer was so great last night and so kind. and that original stuff was fantastic. all right. let me just tack a moment and say a few words of thanks and gratitude and humility. to all the viewers and well wishers who have e-mailed and tweeted so beautifully and wonderfully, i am humbled. just in the last couple of days. it's been my honor to hos

mr. nixon and his staff from the president's inauguration to his resignation in august 1974. c-span: fred j. maroon, photographer, what--what went into putting together this book, "the nixon years"? >> guest: it took four years to do the actual photography. i had to get a permission first from the white house to do the behind-the-scenes first term of president nixon. then i went on to do all the other segments: the committee to re-elect the president, the

fred upton -- subcommittee chairman walden trying. i plan to be very involved. i would hope that with the right environment we could do a bill in the next congress. mr. walden and mr. upton have both told me personally they are going to be doing lots of hearings and papers to set the groundwork. >> another issue you have been involved in is online gambling. sheldon adelson has come out against allowing federal framework for online gambling saying he will do whatever it takes to stop that. does that worry you? does that make it harder to pass the bill? >> we need to clarify what i am for. i am for internet poker. poker is a game of skill. if the best poker player in the world were at this table, they would take all our money in a reasonable amount of time because they are better. you may be a super poker player, i don't know. you may one of these whiz kids who plays poker on the internet already. i am not for online gambling. i am for internet poker if the states want to allow their citizens to play poker on the internet. it is a states' rights position for me. having said that, mr. adelson has come out against it and he has every right to do that as

mr. nixon and his staff from the president's inauguration to his resignation in august 1974. c-span: fred j. maroon, photographer, what--what went into putting together this book, "the nixon years"? >> guest: it took four years to do the actual photography. i had to get a permission first from the white house to do the behind-the-scenes first term of president nixon. then i went on to do all the other segments: the committee to re-elect the president, the watergate hearings, the impeachment hearings and finally his departure from the white house. and then--it was too passionate a time to use the images right away for any major purpose. i had done it as a historic document primarily. and so i had to wait and--which i did, until about three years ago, and at which time i took the negatives out of storage, where i had them, and produced about 1,000 work prints and edited them. and now, 25 years later, the book is published, and there is an exhibition at the same time at the national museum of american history. c-span: where does this photo come from? >> guest: this is in the oval office. it
