mr. powell, they are all very upset about the priority enforcement program which i have to say that they refused to take illegal aliens that they apprehend for deportation. so i will start with you. can you talk about this, was my characterization about this accurate? >> well, i think they you could have expressed a much greater level of frustration. but i would like to point out on the northern border there was an arrest made of an illegal alien in a sector. we took this individual into custody and we immediately released individual on the street and within weeks that individual went up to great falls, montana and raped a 14-year-old girl. and we had this individual in our custody. we had the authority to move this individual from this country and we couldn't do it. that individual went and raped a 14-year-old girl and her life will never be the same. >> and we see this again and again with the tragic murder of kate, the shooting of the border patrol agents in the rio grande valley. they had been deported about seven times. and i think it was in the past couple of days a convicted burgl

powell. [shouting] >> thank you, mr. speaker. over the past week i've been facing severe difficulties in many sectors. these industries are lifeblood in my constituency. could the prime minister give assurances that all aspects are being made to help the industry through this time as far as having been campaigning on the streets to highlight. >> my honorable friend is right to raise this because commodity prices are right across the european union. we let cause in the council in brussels yesterday for urgent action in urgent action and there is a 500 million euro package of measures to help farmers. we've taken steps to help include and get a fair deal at the supermarket to do more on public procurement and authorities are buying british food and also making sure we look at farmers to give them a better deal at this difficult time. >> two weeks ago the work and pensions secretary department not only admitted to testimonies , but they also publish data on the desks of people which shows they are four times more likely to die after

mr. scowcroft has said and colin powell has said. the notion that we have the financial power when already other nations have begun to undertake some further economic work with iran, it's -- it's an illusion. it's an illusion. because so many of the sanctions would disappear. the other countries would not participate. and the ministers from the other countries have said very clearly to us that this notion that you can turn this down and have a stronger set of sanctions is something that is imaginary. i appreciate the chance to answer your question. we'll have a full debate on this for hours, as many as you allow. we'll have a full debate about this. mr. royce will have a chance to raise these points, and we'll be fully prepared to answer them. >> but if the gentleman would yield, part of this is personal for me because one of those bills was my bill. and when you say the president did not oppose sanctions, it was my -- if you would yield, it was my legislation. it did pass 400-20. it passed unanimously through the committee. and yes,

powell. >> thank you. >> thank you, mr. speaker.over the past few weeks i've been meeting with farmers facing severe difficulties to falling commodity prices in many sectors. these industries are a life blood in my constituency. could the prime minister please give assurances that all efforts are being made to help these industries through this particularly tricky time. farmers have been campaigning on the streets recently to highlight their straits. >> well, my honorable friend is absolutely right to raise this. commodity prices are causing problems for farmers in the uk but also right across the european union. we led calls in the council for urgent action and there is going to be a 500 million euro package of measures to help. we've taken steps to help which includes the grocery code. to make sure we get a fair deal with the supermarkets, to do more on public procurement, to make sure public authorities are buying british food. and also the chancellor said about making sure to look at the tax treatment of farmers to give them a b

powell said he is in favor of the deal. that did not go unnoticed at the white house with mr. thanks to "n" a tweet. >>> now to the 2016 race for the white house. new polls on the democratic front showing bernie sanders overtaking hillary clinton in the key state of new hampshire. the vermont senator is leading clinton by nine points according to a new nbc poll. sanders credits the growing support to his stance on economic issues. >> we have a very specific set of ideas and programs that take on the billionaire class. and say, you know what, enough is enough. the country belongs to all of us and not a handful of billionaires. >> on the republican side of things, ben carson is is gaining ground on front runner donald trump in iowa. trump is leading now by only 7 points. jeb bush has lost roughly half his support since july. jeff zeleny has more. >> reporter: a new poll shows that bernie sanders is continuing to hold his advantage over hillary clinton in new hampshire with a 9-point lead of hillary clinton. this is remarkable for a democratic socialist senator from vermont. he i

mr. president, and that's why it's so remarkable. i also want to give special thanks to two former secretaries of state -- colin powell, a republican, and hillary clinton, a democrat -- for weighing in on the side of diplomacy. now, as senators, we deal with thousands of issues in the course of our careers, but we will long remember those, long remember those that actually changed the course of history. those kind of votes are votes of conscience, and they're votes about which we must look into our hearts, deeply into our hearts and into our minds, and we have to look at the facts. the facts are stubborn things. no matter what 30-second ad there is, no matter what newspaper ad there is, there are facts that are obvious, and i want to go through those facts. i have them here on this chart. one, this agreement cuts off the uranium pathway to a bomb. it does it by reducing iran's stockpile of enriched uranium by 98% and severely restricts its ability to enrich uranium. that's number one. second, it cuts off plutonium pathway to a bomb. they do that by dismantling iran's iraq reactor core and replacing it with a core that cannot produce

mrs. wallace, were very prejudiced against african-americans and jews. she had an issue really early on in a dar invitation that involved african-american adam clayton powell. so with that as our launching pad for the subject of the trumans and race, tell us what your scholarship has led you to believe. nicole anslover: well, congressman powell was upset because the daughters of the american revolution had invited bess to a tea and he was offended because they would not let african-american musicians perform in constitution hall. and he thought that bess truman should refuse to attend a tea by an organization who had that policy. and bess truman wrote a public letter saying, i certainly don't approve of this sort of racial prejudice, i don't believe that should be in the arts at all, but we cannot stop a private organization from making their own policies. and she said, i've already accepted the invitation, so i'm not going to back out now. and so she went. and adam clayton powell responded by calling her the last lady of the land, which did not go over well with the president. william seale: but the whole thing must have infuriated the president, because

mr. inhofe: yes, i don't mean to interrupt you, but my time is limited here. i can imagine this would be a part of what we would all be briefed on. yesterday, when congressman powell asked a question, secretary rice said he had seen the deal with the iaea and she is going to shared with congress. if you have seen it, that is the question. -- at the same time or prior to the time that secretary rice sought to secretary kerry: national security -- saw it. secretary kerry: national security advisor rice has not seen it. mr. inhofe: she said yesterday -- secretary kerry: no, she has been briefed on it. the exact quote is that she has been briefed on it, she hasn't actually seen it. mr. inhofe: i will give you her quote. she said she did get she did see it. she did evaluate it. she said she did six days ago. that is seven days ago now. she said six days ago she had seen it and reviewed it and that congress will get to see it in a classified session. mr. inhofe: "the hill" magazine had something about that. it was seven days ago today that we had a classified presidential briefing. most of the people at this table were there. and now it's a this -- and i would say this,
