mr. hunt?l, i think we want all people to thrive. that is the problem with the welfare state. work is important. work is important for allowing build lives they want to build and have freedom they live.to so when we look at a welfare state that empowers people to funds from the government instead of being able to go out and have a vocation, do what god intended them to do, to have a job that empowers feeds their soul and allows them to pursue the dreams hey want to have, that is what i think conservatives want. think it comes down to a particular race, we want all to have the opportunity pursue the life they want. carson, doing ben great job at department housing urban development, their goal has to be get people off welfare role. has to be our goal, limit that, people have jobs, they are pursuing dreams and building lives they want to build for themselves. mechanicsville, jeff hunt with the western conservative summit. caller: thanks for taking my call. i've been interested in the libertarian

mr hunt apologised for what he called "administrative incompetence".fact is that for many years, oversight of our screening programme has not been good enough. labour said a number of questions needed to be answered. eight years is a long time for an error of this magnitude to go undetected. did the department receive any warnings in that time? and is there any record of how many women raised concerns that they had not received appropriate screening? were there any opportunities to change this mistake which were missed? women between the age of 50 and 70 are invited every three years to come for a routine breast screening, involving a mammogram on an x—ray machine like this, but what's emerged is that some of them in their late 60s never got the invitation to come for the final screening. about two million women a year take up the offering of screening. —— offer of. it's thought about 450,000 were affected by the failure. some have since died from a range of causes. in 2009, the national screening programme up to the age of 70 was launched in england.

mr. huntdy should be commended about what to do congressman? >> i misstated -- misstated, an important point, the occ controlling the currency, is not a fine member board. it's a single member in fact, he has more power over banks than the head of the cfpb because the controller has more power than the cfpb. i voted for the five member commission to get the bill out single member commission, and mr. hunt forgets that the occ is a single member. they are objecting to not the structure, but the fact of consumer protection, and i would also say this, and it's a sign of a popularity of the cfpb for the american public, that in the senate, when you have people ready to provide relief, and i admire what they tried to do, no one tried to include weakening of the cfpb's power for changing the structure. mr. hunt does not like it, but the american people overwhelmingly do so that's why the republican congress is not trying to weaken it. >> let's get facts straight -- >> hold on a second. rich, just bri

mr. speaker, it is wrong on three fundamental levels. first of all, it is just wrong. all animals suffer. and hunting them down with these extreme methods is cruel repugnant to virtually all americans. it is wrong ecologically. for millions of years we have seen these animals coexist, and the national parks like yosemite or what's happening in alaska are some of the few repu places where that ecological billion continues to work. improve beings cannot upon it. they can only damage that delicate balance. it is also wrong economically. the economic impact for gateway communities for these 300 million tourists is profound. and if we're going to turn these national treasures simply into game parks, hunting preserves, they are going to lose their allure, the economic impact will be dramatically diminished. as well as upsetting the fact ical balance and the that it is morally wrong. what we should be doing in this congress is raising our voices in outrage fact over the latest wrong. attempt by the trump administration to roll back sensible, commonly supported protections. while we're at it, not just raisin

mr. mueller and the entire investigation which leads you to believe that this could be a witch hunt but the problem is mueller has not said anything, so at the base of this, at the very center of all of this, you don't know what's going on. is this going to be the witch hunt of the century or is this something that comes out that is actually proved that this investigation was worthwhile what is your bet? >> well we just have to stand on the sidelines and pray that mueller is a decent upright honorable person, and our government was not built to just sit back and pray and trust that someone is a decent upright person. we have checks and balances for a reason and those checks and balances have been completely blown away and you make a great point, john. obviously if paul manafort is guilty of anything of real crimes have at him just off to the races with him but even a guilty person has certain rights , prosecutors have to obey certain rules and no matter how guilty the person might be or how bad the crimes might be, and that's not happening here. this prosecutor is just doing whatever he wan

a witch hunt? mr. president, in february, 13 russian individuals and three russian companies were charged with breaking u.s. law and interfering in the 2016 election, 13. the indictment entails -- details an elaborate coordinated scheme to disrupt our election. moreover, three trump campaign officials have pled guilty to crimes that include lying to the f.b.i., about contacts with russia during the campaign and conspiracy to defraud the united states, and the former trump campaign manager is currently facing similar charges. despite the progress of the investigation, we know from news reports that president trump repeatedly has considered firing director mueller and deputy attorney general rosenstein. that would be a grave miss take. that would be a very grave mistake. instead of exercising presidential leadership and holding russia accountable in safeguarding our upcoming election, president trump continues to use dangerous rhetoric directed toward the special counsel's investigation, as well as at th

mr. trump's inner circle. president trump calls it a witch hunt but again, let us remind you -- president trump's former deputy campaign manager, former campaign foreign policy advisor, and former national security advisor have pleaded guilty and are cooperating with the special counsel. an affiliated lawyer is already serving time in prison. donald trump's former campaign chairman has been indicted and is awaiting trial. and 13 russian nationals and three russian companies have been indicted for alleged interference in the 2016 election. nearly one year in, and mueller still has not sat down with the president though. right now all signs point to donald trump's legal team doing everything it can to keep robert mueller away. so our big question is, is donald trump's best defense a good offense against mueller? one other reminder -- whatever you think of donald trump as president, it is important to remember mueller's investigation is tasked with getting to the heart of what makes us a democracy. was our election free and fair. we'll see what the white house has to say when the briefing starts any minute. raj s

hunt. joe? >> yeah, so mr. ambassador, what -- a trick question here, what should americans fear more? of russia or vladimir putin not the president of russia with no succession plan? >> well, he doesn't have a succession plan. it's a good question. it's not a trick question. it's one of the fundamental questions. this is not a regime that has an ideology. it doesn't have a party. there is no, you know, deputy in the works waiting and so i think the system will be very unstable after putin goes and let me make a radical prediction as a political scientist. we're bad at predicting the future, but i will predict that vladimir putin will not be the president of russia forever. and so what happens next is actually i think a big question. i hope and see that there are tendencies towards a more pro person approach, more democracy. russia's a developed country today. russia is a rich country. usually when countries become rich thai -- but they could turn russia in a very different direction and make it a more scary place, so i'm more optimistic about the long run but i don't know when that lo

hunt. they went back home in tatters. it is unclear who the president is referring to. mr. trump's lawyer, rudy guiliani, acknowledging that the attempt to undermine mueller's investigation in the court of public opinion is part of their strategy. >> it is public opinion. eventually the decision will be impeach, not impeach. members of congress, democrat and republican, will be informed a lot by their constituents. the jury, as it should be, is the american people. >> reporter: so giuliani saying while he thought mueller was legitima legitimate when he started, he no longer believes so now. the president made it multiple times on twitter over the weekend. all of that going on as the president today will go to arlington cemetery right outside washington for a wreath-laying ceremony in honor of memorial day. >>> joining us is david sanger and cnn political analyst david drucker. david sanger, you've been reporting for weeks, months, years on this. so it seems like it is on again. tell us what's happening behind the scenes. >> well, it sure does seem like it is on again, or at

hunt designed to topple a president. it is harder tordo that now. muller is seeking information that leads to mr. trump's prosecution or impeachment. that is not a law enforcement investigation, that is a hit job on a democratically elected leader. removing trump from office is the only principle. instead of admitting that they lecture us on the rule of law. they don't care. and mueller doesn't have the power to take trump out. no independent counsel would. the only institution is the congress. the voters get to decide who fills it. others check the president's power. not peter strzok or lisa page. the congress. if the president committed a crime, the congress can put him on trial. it is impeachment. it takes place openly and the rest of us can watch and evaluate it every step of the way. there are no redakted documents. it is transparent and that is how democracies are supposed to operate. the democratic base understand this. but they badly want to impeach donald trump. the leaders in the democratic party lie about it. all they care about is power. they don't want to scare the voters and instead

mr. manafort to give up information on president trump. i've been saying that for a long time. it's a witch-hunt. >> well, let's review these developments with house intel committee with nunez. we have a lot to talk about with him. it's good to see you. t.s. ellis i know very well. he is a senior judge in the eastern district of virginia. i think a long time ago i interviewed with him. very well respected, appointed by president reagan because in '87. but he was brutal on the counsel who was arguing the case, who is basically a deputy -- a general who's now in the mueller office. what were your thoughts on his comments about how this is really outside the scope of the mueller authority? >> i was astonished by the comments the judge made today, although it's not surprising. everything in this case has just gone off the rails. there's not a day that goes by that something new and crazy doesn't break. finally just today we were able to get the two pages that we needed that we now know that comey and mccabe did in fact say that general flynn -- that agents didn't think he was lying. so you have to j
