[laughter] anna: any last questions from he audience? >> you are talking about how the government, we should not look to them for rights. how do you prevent people being oppressed by other people who live in a country? if you let people do whatever, how do you prevent -- how do you ensure a equality? anna: the last question is, should we worry about oppression not just from the government but rom th

mr. hamilton set up his government they put in checks and balances so one person could not screw it all up. we are going to test that system over the next four years. we need you -- a lot of people and the audience say, you each ticket oath of office. the ticket owes to uphold the constitution. we need you to do your jobs. your jobs, not just when it is easy but when there is somebody pushing against you that might want something else. so, we just ask you, do your jobs, do your jobs, uphold the constitution, and we'll get through this. i yield back. the chair recognizes the gentleman from california for five minutes. >> thank you. see youwitz, good to again. i never had any doubt you would be held over. let me go through this, and first, i want to say that i am concerned that the transition team now defunk certainly could have done a better job in informing people who are technically serve at the pleasure of the president that they were going to be retained. there's plenty of examples of people who got almost to inauguration day and kept saying, do i leave or do i stay? and many of them wa

: i think that what makes the whole story so bizarre and unbelievable is that hamilton ended up paying blackmail money to mr exposed, hamilton did something no one expected: he confessed everything. >> chernow: he wrote a 95-page pamphlet, when even his closest friends thought that a delicately-worded paragraph or two would have done the trick. >> rose: i apologize, i made a mistake. >> chernow: and that would have done it. >> jefferson & madison: ♪ alexander hamilton had a torrid affair ♪ and he wrote about it down right there! ♪ highlights! >> rose: in the show, miranda uses hamilton's own words from what became known as "the reynold's pamphlet." >> jefferson & madison & burr: ♪ "i had frequent meetings with her ♪ most of them at my own house" at his own house! ♪ at his own house! damn! >> rose: the scandal was one big reason there was never a president hamilton. >> jefferson & madison & burr: ♪ never gonna be president now ain't never gonna be president now ♪ that's one less thing to worry about! >> leslie odom jr: he's made these dead white guys make sense to a bunch of, you know, black and brown people

mr. bacon of nebraska. baker-hamilton baker-hamilton mr. speaker, i rise today -- mr. bacon: mr. speaker, i rise today to commit to civility. the 435th of us represent 320 million americans. with a population that large, and that diverse, we're going to have our differences. we're going to disagree with which direction the nation needs to go. with a free and open democracy we all have that right. and vigorous discussions makes us stronger. however, despite our differences, we are all still americans. we want what is best for our country. and we must keep our debates respectful. we're all americans first, before we're republicans, democrats, independents, and we can't forget this. as americans, we do have major issues facing us. and the world is looking to us to be leaders and find solutions. we must remain civil to each other to achieve this goal. isis will never ask for republicans or democrats. the unemployment line doesn't ask if we're republicans or democrats either. the federal deficit doesn't care if we're republicans or democrats. these are shared issues. and we're all in

mr. moyar: sir, over here. thank you for your time. them am a student at miami university of ohio. i'm here with the alexander hamilton society. i want to ask you about military history. when people study that history, there may be some strong points. military history, the civil war. history, world war i. in your opinion, what is a conflict or work that you think not enough has been written on? especially with regard to conflicts right now. lt. gen. mcmaster: i think -- i would say going recent history, i would say the iraq war. joel rayburn is here. raise your hand. that distinguished gentleman there. seminalust drafted a operational history of the iraq war. i think what that is going to be is a tremendous jumping off point for historians to really dig into aspects of that operational history in greater depth. in large measure, we have been , notacted about iraq by the wrong question, but a question we have asked and answered which is --should we had done it? who the hell thought it would be easy? and why? -- how did the war progress from that point on? iraq war and obviously connecting it to what is going on today. michael w

mr. merkley: thank you. so here we are on another evening debating another cabinet nominee, addressing the question that hamiltonut before us, which is whether an individual is of fit character to serve in a particular post. this effort, this advice and consent responsibility held by the senate is one that was anticipated by our founders would be used rarely, because the very existence of this power would ensure that a president would nominate people who are appropriately suited to the post that they would hold. so i do find it troubling the number of times i have come to the floor here in this -- these last few weeks to speak about a nominee and consider whether they are fit and to find that perhaps the individual is lacking, and tonight we are considering the nomination of congressman mick mulvaney to head the office of management and budget. this is a powerful organization, and it's a very important position. it plays a critical role in the oversight and management of our federal budget, plays a critical role in determining what gets funded and what doesn't get funded. and so with that in mind, it's important

mr. white: i remember before they let go for a while, so i don't expect anything. jonathan: drexel hamiltonet, the close yesterday at 135. mark yusko is sticking with us. as we count you down to the open , and the closing of this trading week eventually, later on today. features a little soft, down 131% across the board. the potential for a fourth straight week of gains on the s&p 500, the longest of july of next year -- of last year. you are watching bloomberg tv. ♪ jonathan: from new york city, this is "bloomberg daybreak," on jonathan ferro. about .4%ofter, down on the dow, negative one third 1% on the s&p 500. you would need a significant flying today to take that away. classes, asset treasuries big, use coming in by four basis points, 641 on the u.s. tenure. the dollar showing the strength right now, up .1%. that's the story across asset. a lot of starks -- stock to get through. abigail: looking at a down day on the open for the major averages. the dow, s&p 500, and the nasdaq trading lower. this is actually the fourth down day, these losses are more than we have seen. all of those los

mr. pruitt's nomination, they are genuinely afraid of the consequences of putting him in charge of the e.p.a. i heard from deb smith from hamilton, new hampshire. that's a small community on our coastline. she wrote that, quote, i'm a birder, love to walk on the beach and in the mountains and rely on time spent in nature to cope with a lung cancer diagnosis. clean air is especially important to me. pruitt's long history of suing the e.p.a. and reversing decades of progress and improving the environment disqualifies him from this post, she writes. it's essential to continue to preserve and improve our natural environment for people, birds, and other wildlife. end quote. elizabeth garlow of concord writes, new hampshire, due to quirks in its geology and the earth's rotation is the tailpipe of the nation, with much of the air pollutants from the midwest exiting to the ocean from here. the people of new hampshire cannot sit back and watch our children suffer from asthma and be restricted from outside activities due to bad air quality days. mr. pruitt will be a very significant detriment to the quality of life in new hampshire. end q

mr. mnuchin is the president's nominee for treasury secretary. this is a position that's been held by american economic giants, like alexander hamilton, albert gallatan, henry morga morganstall and when they make a pledge like mr. mnuchin, it ought to stand for something. unfortunately, it already looks like the mnuchin rule is on the ropes. the very first act of the 115th congress and a unified republican government repealing the affordable care act shattered the mnuchin rule. the affordable care act repeal scheme that republicans kicked off a month ago in my view is a trojan horse of tax breaks for the most fortunate. nobody outside the top 4% or 5% of earners would get any of that break. most of it would go to households in the top 1% of earners. even then top one-tenth of 1%. and it's paid for by taking insurance coverage and tax cuts for health care literally out of the hands of millions of working people. then, mr. president, it's back for another whack at the mnuchin rule later this year. "the new york times" published story last week that said, and i quote, talking about mr. mnuchin, his guarantee appears impossible to fulfill either under th
