king: thank you, mr. speaker. the privilege of being here to be recognized to speak on the floor of the house of representatives. come to the floor this morning, mr. speaker, to address a topic and most of the words i say will be from an article by roger who is an author from great britain and on a new book hit so much his home and has so much to do with america, i thought it was important that i address this morning. but he says, in every period of history, there have been pinions and customs that are dangerous to question. but our situation in western is a new one.day a novel one. the old customs have been torn by a culture of repudiation people to shape their lives to an identity of and socialization now means becoming who you are framework ard to the that existed in the ivilization, in the culture prior. the punishes for thinking are largely ious, impossible to deflect. that means that the archive of crimes is stored in cyberspace and however much you and ave confessed to them sworn to change, they will pursue

mr. king's paperwork it was good enough for president trump, why is it not appropriate to have a hearing ays or three weeks after we've received mr. scalia's paperwork? it would certainly be hard for me as chairman to justify treating president bush's nominees worse than president obama's nominees. senator murray and i will have an opening statement and secretary chao will introduce mr. scalia. we welcome her and after his testimony, senators will each have five minutes of questions and as i said, we'll have two rounds of questions. so senators can have time to ask some. i know, as is often the case there are other hearings and meetings going on this morning so i've asked mr. scalia to stay for the two rounds. last week a washington times headline shows, strong economy, growing wages and low unemployment rate. wages are growing at an annual rate of 3.2%. african-american unemployment fell to 5.5% in august and the record low of 4.4% for african-american women. overall, unemployment is at a 50-year low. businesses and worker need a secretary of labor who will steer the department with a st

mr. scalia. and i disagreed with john king on many education matters. but when president obama's education secretary stepped down in his last year of office, i went to the president and i said, mr. president, i think we need to have a confirmed senate nominee in an important position like u.s. education secretary. if you will please in a moment -- nominate john king with whom i disagree, i said if you'll in nominate him, even though we disagree, we'll consider and confirm him promptly. and we did. within 32 days after president obama nominated john king and within -- the senate had confirmed him. i also voted, by the way, for cloture on the senate floor for both of these nominees. i did this because i believe it's important that we have a confirmed and accountable cabinet member for presidents. that's important to the senate so we have a chance to interview and deal with our cabinet members and it's important to the country for the president to be able to have his choice of a cabinet member promptly considered and confirmed. so as a matter of fairness, a

recognize a dear man, a true gentleman who has been instrumental for flight 93 over these many years, mr. king laughlin of the national park foundation. [ applause ] >> a gentleman i just met merely moments ago, but i can already say that mr. zukov here is already going to be a tremendous partner and i'm looking forward to mr. mitchell's comments here this morning. ladies and gentlemen, author mitchell zukov. [ applause ] and finally, i'd especially like to thank and acknowledge the families of the passengers and crew members of flight 93 joining us here this morning. thank you so very much. [ applause ] at this time i would like to extend a very special thank you to the many, many volunteer ambassadors who represent flight 93 national memorial on a daily basis and help connect visitors to the individual stories of these 40 amazing people. yearly, think about this, yearly volunteer ambassadors provide approximately 10,000 hours, 10,000 hours of their valuable time which equals approximately $250,000 of in-kind services. absolutely astounding. [ applause ] >> ladies and gentlemen, i'd also like

mr. king for an opening statement. >> we also command congressman for his efforts on this dedication. mr. chairman, i would like to introduce this into the record. here the witnesses on testimony. [inaudible conversation] with that now i recognize the chairman of the community mr. thompson it's not here yet. >> on the committee rulebook and statements may be submitted for the record. i we will our panel of witnesses. our first witness may be the youngest witness to appear before this subcommittee is lauren, cofounder of marks per lives. survivor of the school shooting in stoneman douglas high school. in parkland, florida. off of she may be on, miss is undoubtedly and unfortunately, an expert on this topic. i am thankful she is here testifying for her first congressional hearing. she will share her experiences. next we have missus mays the director of the office of the homeland security to prepare. missus maples has appeared numerous times. i thank him for coming back. next we have ms. cassie,

but my advice is, if mr. king is still their engineer, get a detail drawn up as soon as possible and try to figure out a financial settlement with the neighbors to get this worked on. >> president hirsch: and do they have any responsibility to the -- if they don't choose to use the permit holder's contractor, even though the permit holder is offering their contractor, because obviously, i wouldn't use the contractor because they screwed up my house -- i'm speaking for me, not for them. do they have a choice to select the contractor, and is it in bounds for them to go to the permit holder and say thanks for offering to fix it, but i don't have faith in your contractor. i want my own, and that's a reasonable claim? >> yes. we can't make them use the recommendation. that came up as part of the meeting at d.b.i. this is from memory at the meeting, is that the contractor that did the work next door was quoting, like, $30,000 to do this work at their property, and their contractor that they were going to use was $80,000

president, i am surprised that the words of mrs. king are not suitable for debate in the united states senate. i appeal the ruling. >> the senator will take her seat. >> warren is effectively barred from speaking about sessions. >> she was warned. she was given an explanation. neverthele nevertheless, she persisted. >> a future 2020 democratic rival is among those rising to her defense. >> the suggestion that reciting the words would invoke rule 19 and force senator warren to sit down and be silent is outrageous. >> it was clearly meant to silence words they didn't want to hear, not words that were inappropriate. >> attorney general jeff sessions. [ applause ] >> jeff sessions is confirmed. it is a loss for warren, but her team capitalizes on the reprimand, plastering it on merchandise. >> this is a moment that would galvanize millions of democrats, liberals, progressives around her. >> we are the party of opposition, and that is our job. >> outspoken and unapologetic. elizabeth warren takes a leading role railing against the trump admin

russia russia russia they should not have been talking about stormy daniels and michael levy on the mr kings and i want to ring in on what your adviser was because you said that the majority of americans do not favor. pietschmann there is a new you gov poll out very recently and off to all of this came out about the call with selenski that says 55 percent of americans now the majority of americans favor and peach meant how is that going to pass and 2020. well you know i would respectfully say nobody in politics looks at a huge poll and takes it serious the poll that i'm referring to was the moma mama paul it's very serious poll and the instant kind of polls that you can get i'm sure it might be really popular in new york city and in california but in terms of the american people who have prospered so much because of the trump economic policies they are against in place but i know this because i was there during bill clinton's impeachment and i can tell you we had bipartisan support but we didn't have the overwhelming majority of americans for us and the republican party paid a political pric

. >> mr. king, did you read the transcript call with the president of ukraine?s a nothing burger for me, the phone call with the president and the ukrainian president. >> then they discredit the person shining a light on the alleged criminality. >> this guy has got concerns with -- and the inspector general even told us he had a bias against the president. >> who was involved with this and why and was there a bias coming from this. >> and then they deflect attention to another person. >> there was no quid pro quo, but there was with biden. >> did joe biden do anything wrong? >> well, that needs to be investigated. >> when the story really comes out, it'll be the democrats that'll have a problem, not president trump. >> well, the tactics are predictable of course but will they deliver the same results this time around? one republican senator isn't so sure and that's next. you're watching "hardball." impl, so you're not stuck in the 90s. wow, that tiny tv is the bomb. when insurance is simple, it's surprisingly painless. wow, that tiny tv is the bomb. ♪ (music pla

mr. king: thank you, mr. speaker. i appreciate the privilege to be recognized, to address you here on the floor of the united states house of representatives. and i wanted to come to this floor and talk a little bit today about what is happening to our nation, our society, our culture, our constitution and these are topics that have been debated in this chamber for a long time. but some things have happened that never happened before. and so i'd start first with, seems to be our leader seems to be a high respecter of the credibility of the "new york times." so i put together a document here that i thought might be interesting to him. and i'd go through just a few of them. on the articles that have come up in "the new york times," that have had to be retracted. let's see. there's the articles about russian meddling in the election that had to be retracted. they had to apologize for ruining lee's career and life. and "the new york times" admits that one of their reporters engaged in frequent acts of journalistic fraud.

martin luther king jr. and mrs. coretta scott king. while many male leaders of the civil rights movement have rightfully become household names, the women of the movement who struggled and sacrifices were equal and participation was necessary, have not enjoyed the same recognition. . she was a brilliant, courageous leader in her own right and oday we recognize her remarkable and distinct contributions. mrs. abernathy was born on 1, 1931 in union town, alabama. eight the youngest of children born to alexander and ella gilmore jones. she met her grade future husband, reverend dr. alph abernathy, who wrote in his memoirs he was impressed by er audacious spirit and inherent dignity. n 1952 after mrs. abernathy completed her b.s. in business administration from tennessee she and dr. abernathy were married. he moved to montgomery, alabama, where she became the secretary for the alabama taught of the naacp and high school courses on business i prevailed because of her personal courage and sacrifices way for future generations of black childre

accomplish a breakthrough like that it would be hugely significant i'd also just said quickly to mr king these points that right now all of those conflicted regional states are quite alive and behind wanting this process to work and that is rare given the diversity of interests. if this process breaks down more largely i don't think that unity will continue i suspect all 3 of us would agree on that and the international actors russia china pakistan the u.s. will all have incentives to back different actions to back different parts of the afghan war and that can lead anywhere good so it further illustrates the need to make this diplomatic push work because right now all the political incentives are aligned behind it and to lose this moment of it would be a tragic well it's very interesting to see how this is going to further unformed bought until then i really appreciate your time and contribution johnny watch how meat hakimi and. thank you too for watching you can see the program again and it's on by visiting the website. for further discussion go to our facebook page that's facebook dot

maloney and mr. king and chairman nadler, calling for the permanent authorization of the 9/11 victims compensation fund. which through the advocacy efforts will provide our sick and dying 9/11 first responders and their families with the support they need and deserve. just as we stood together and not as democrats or republicans, but as americans, after those attacks 18 years ago, we must continue to do so today. and come together as a country for our children, for our first responders, for our brave men and women in active duty and for our veterans. i think our country has had enough of the fighting. i think people want us to come together as one. they want us to work together. govern together. and solve problems together under the flag. today we're able to step back to think and reflect and pray for all the lives we lost that day, and all those we've lost since. we honor their legacies by coming together as a nation here in the greatest country in the world, and continuing the work to build a more perfe

i'm pleased to offer a solution with my colleagues, mr. king of new york, mr. rose, and mr. mccaul that will strengthen the department of homeland security's fight against trug -- against the drug crisis. this bill authorizes the secretary of homeland security to establish a task force to enhance the internal integration of the department's border security operations to detect, interdict, disrupt, and prevent narcotics, including fentanyl from entering the united states in the first place. secretary johnson was the first to use the joint task force model to achieve bert unity of effort across the department's components. all of d.h.s.'s many agencies from customs and border protection to the united states coast guard have an born role to play when it comes to combating opioid trafficking. if the homeland security investigations is looking into fentanyl distribution ring, for example in omaha, they need to coordinate efforts with customs officers in el paso so that packages en route to nebraska are properly interdicted. the j.t.f. model is intended to ensure this coordination

"tapestry." >> there were a lot of very important women who were some of the most significant writers and contributors to music at the time. >> we are going to do a song written by john david sausser one of my favorite california songwriters and one of my favorite singers. it's called "faithless love." >> she wa

and christopher king alias mr plant and graces the natural world in his arms like in this latest installation treehouse in and see you in france. well back when it was published in 1985 margaret atwood's novel the handmaid's tale was critically acclaimed but considered by many to be a bit farfetched the main character offered is one of a cast of scarlet clad handmaids forced to be breeding machines in the patriarchal dystopia of gilliatt will fast forward to 2017 and the novel had a veritable 2nd coming as a t.v. series but also as a symbol of resistance to my sergeant's trompe and politics and that's one reason the long awaited sequel has finally arrived. and my swearing the iconic red cloaks and want to head peace is familiar from the t.v. series and subsequent political protests appeared in the streets of london ahead of margaret and towards night as book crunch fans say the book is more relevant than ever in some ways it's becoming a worse place with them particularly in the night sky. and so this is very current and very relevant very necessary it wasn't just that me it was a horror but

mr. john king at the magic wall. good evening, john. results are coming in. how does it look right now at the moment? >> getting close to the finish line, don. the republican has a narrow lead, two numbers that matter very much as we get close. a 3,821-vote lead for republican dan bishop with 92% of the vote in. you're right, even if republicans just win this race, democrats will say it should have been a blowout, that we're within a point or two is good news for the democrats. republicans will say that. we won a special election in a tough environment. guess what. if it turns out that way, both will be right. republicans if they hold on will win a tough race in a tough environment. democrats will say, we shouldn't be having this conversation tonight. this should have been a blowout. so as we look right now, 92% in. a 3,821 -- 3,800 and change for dan bishop, the republican. this is what's left, the big piece of what's left is mecklenburg county. 76% in. this is about a third, 30% to a third of the district depending on turnout. it's the edge of charlotte and
