mr. pierce. >> thank you for being here. thank you, okay. i appreciate your efforts to create national security and diminish the terrorist threat. are you in the rooms where you lay out a complex strategy in your report here. are you in the rooms where the strategies are being formulated? >> yeah. >> absolutely. >> on a scale from 1 to 10 where you talk about depleting resources from oil production, you would be familiar with the processes and the targets and things like that? >> in terms of the military targets? >> you are fail comprehensive in your hospital. >> we are linked up closely with the defense department in terms of its overall level. >> so that's the direction. on a scale of 1 to 10, how committed are you to stopping the oil revenues from coming in? the administration. 1 to 10. >> i would give that a 10, congressman. >> why don't you stop it this afternoon? you want to do it, you are in the room, you can stop it today. you move 30,000 barrels of oil a day basically is what the report is saying. that sells anywhere from 25 to $60

mr. pierce asked this question, but i'm maybe a little bit confused. moving oil is not like moving nuggets of gold or diamonds, right? there's a large quantity of oil that has to be moved from the oil field and/or the refineries, is that correct? >> we're talking 20,000 to 30,000 barrels a day. there may be some -- you know, it's not an exact figure, but it's a significant amount of oil that's being transported every single day. and once it's sold, i think it can be more difficult to identify those who are participating on the finance side and the purchasing side and the middle man side of oil, but does it seem impossible that we couldn't bomb tankers of oil as they leave the refineries or leave the wells, why aren't we engaging in military action to destroy the oil as it leaves, why aren't we doing that? to anyone on the panel. mr. lovett? >> i don't know the answer to that. it's more of a military question than not. my guess is that if it were that simple, we would be doing it, because there's no one that disagrees with the premise of what you're say

mr. obama pierced me hitting the right notes, there are questions if he will really follow through. listen to what he said when asked about the only met once or twice with soon-to-be senate majority leader mitch mcconnell during his six years in office. bill: i think that every day i'm asking myself if there are some things i can do better. and i'm going to keep on asking that every single day. the good news is now mitch mcconnell and john boehner are from the same party, they can come together and decide what their agenda is. they have sufficient majority to make real progress. >> so well that poker game actually take place? if i am john boehner and mitch mcconnell i would be making rice crispy treats and i don't see it happening. >> i feel republicans need to try to find areas they can work with the president on. you need to be able to show you are able to get things done heading into 2016. i feel there is an onus now on the republican side to get something done but unfortunately on the democratic side it has now switched. i can see the president now say it is payback time. >> wha

mr. ruiz, it might have been a saving grace for him that he actually had piercings and that he was removed't have to answer any of those questions. >> well, as you know, i'm from orange county jail. >> just hours before he would answer to the judge. ruiz used his time in isolation to write a letter to his girlfriend who he had not spoken to since his arrest. >> baby i'm sorry for not picking you up at work. i was in a police car at the time. i hope you're there when i get out. the only thing i can dream or think about is all the right things i'm going to do when i get out. this is too hard for me right now. to be continued. >> okay. we're back in session, back on the record. on case number 10-sf-0604, people versus richard edward ruiz. mr. ruiz is richard edward ruiz jr. your true name? >> yes. >> the following day it's preliminary court hearing ruiz was charged with felony possession of narcotics which could carry a lengthy sentence behind bars. he entered a plea of not guilty and had one supporter at the hearing, his girlfriend, samantha dunn, who spoke to us afterwards. >> tell me how y
