mr. reed: thank you. >> thank you, mr. chair, and thank you, attorney general, for being here today. before i get into a question or two about guidance, i just want to continue on this line of questioning about resources. i think we talked about atf resources, but i wanted to explore a little more deeply about resources within this system it self. as we start to game out our budget for 2017 and is -- 2017 appropriations year, what should we be looking at in terms of appropriations necessary for the department of justice to be able to do all of the things that we contemplate this has to do in order to keep up with the increasing number of applications, but also the increased coordination that we see to make sure that we have all of the records uploaded to that system? ms. lynch: yes, senator, thank you very much for that. this is a very timely one as we look to invest in a system. that is one of our first lines of defense against keeping guns out of the hands of those who should not have them. for fiscal year 15, nick's per

mr. reed: and these are set up to avoid limitations for ordering automatic weapons were machine guns, or are they applying increasingly with just handguns are what we would consider to just be personalized weapons? ms. lynch: well, typically we see trusts and other corporate entities being used to purchase these weapons that are not handguns and that typically one can go to a dealer and purchase fairly quickly and easily. but these are weapons that are under the national firearms act that are the short barreled shotguns and certain types of machine guns as well as silencers. mr. reed: it just strikes me as somewhat ironic because the seen asmendment is appropriately so as an individual right that americans have and to have corporations and trust to be able to use this , and it is not alone in this area, i have been a lawyer for quite a bit, operations and trust have been created to evade, or do something that done,begun -- can't be ad i think this represents forceful way that you and the presi

mr. reed, joins us in lakewood where people are taking their shot at becoming a multimillionaire . that $800 million . here in lakewood, people have been here all day trying to get the winning ticket . behind me, he's buying his ticket, a have been extremely busy here are going to get a lot busier than people get off work . earlier, as video poured into the store trying to get the lucky powerball ticket worth $800 million a day record-breaking about the most incomparable history . and then you have to ask, what would you do with $800 million this is what people said? >> i would buy a house, and spend the rest of my life in school having fun at ficker family, go on a vacation to start my own business. >> i would buy the station i work for . and then i i would get it right back to them and here are some odds of winning, you have to buy in quantity . if you buy 10 tickets, at $2 each then your odds are 10 times better, that the computer pick the numbers, 75 percent of winners come from computer-g

mr. reed: thank you very much. first met me commend senator brown on his very thoughtful comments on the earned-income tax credit. i also ask unanimous consent that molly byer, a fellow in my office, be granted privileges of the floor for the reasonablyder of the congress -- for the remainder of the congress. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. reed: i am very glad that the senate is taking up the issue of energy this week. the bill we are debating takes positive steps forward to encourage energy efficiency in federal and commercial buildings, modernize the electric grid, and boost renewable sources of energy. i'm particularly pleased that provisions i worked with on a bipartisan basis with senators coons and collins to enhance the weatherization assistance program and the state energy program are included. these provisions improve these programs that help low hmmm income americans -- low-income americans reduce their energy bills and many of these individuals are senior citizens who are day by day strugg

. >> mr. reedt communism and those in the repressive regimes why people like rand, rothbart and friedman? >> very good question. i think ultimately communism is such a nonviable system that it makes war on human nature on private property, the things that sustain life. at some point it would have disappeared. john: many say it was ronald reagan who arms buildup and they tried to compete, broke more quickly. wasn't that? >> i think reagan and margaret thatcher, john paul ii. all of those people deserve a little credit. but even they would say and did on many occasions that the lion's share of the credit ought to go to the people who were actually living under communism, resisting it at every turn. they were heroes in the eyes of people like reagan. john: who's next? >> how do you go against the nature of what's popular in society and fight and go to another country. what motivated you to change the regime there. >> this may sound corny, it was a movie. john: yes, it does. >> in 1966 -- [ laughter ]

. >> mr. reed, i appreciate both of you being here. you have called and just said to meg this issue of drug prices is in your words a political issue. certainly, the regulatory approval process can get highly politicized at times. i'm just wondering how you think this issue raising prices on more than 100 drugs by the level you have could come into play when it's discussed behind closed doors whether this deal should be approved or not. you can strip away sort of the inversion aspect of this deal. when you just get into the heart of the fact you were on cnbc last, you said the deal was great for america. if someone was to say to you, sir, how is raising prices on more than 100 drugs great for americans, i'm not sure we should approve the deal, how do you respond? >> well, look, firstly, you know, we raised prices as part of a market-based system. most of those price increases are a lot smaller than have been published. those resources go back into innovation and discovering products. the real heart of your question is should pfizer be

mr. clinton takes the podium. >> reed: meanwhile bernie sanders campaigned across new hampshire today where he sounded confident of a primary victory. one of his four planned events was at a meeting with students at southern new hampshire university where he laid out differences with his chief democratic rival hillary clinton. the vermont senator says clinton represents establishment politics and economics and issues ranging from social finance. while he represents what he believes is the change the system needs. >> i say to secretary clinton, let us have the courage to ask the wealthiest people in thisry, people making $250,000 or more, to put more into social security so we can end the disgrace of millions of seniors and disabled vets trying to get back on 12 or $13,000 a year. >> reed: hillary clinton sharpened her attacks on sanders today calling his foreign policy view as cause for concern. >> marie: ben carson back on his presidential campaign schedule today following the death of a about five-year-old volunteer. -- 25-year-old. carson held two events in iowa as he posted on facebook

mr. chairman, senator reed, members of the committee, it's an honer to be with you this morning. you have my written testimony, i believe, mr. chairman. i will just make a few brief remarks now so we can get on with the questions. i would start where general keane left off. in a region experiencing unprecedented eed tumult in it 100-year history, there is an urgent need for a reassertion of u.s. engagement and leadership. i will have some specifics. i was just in the middle east last month. talking to some longtime friends in lebanon, with saudis, with some syrians. there is a perception that the united states is not engaged, is absent and that maligned forced are, therefore, having a field day out there. our friends are uncertain and scared. our adversaries are gaining ground. we need to make this clear that what happens in the middle east is of vital national importance to us. and it is, sir. at a time when states are failing and non-state actors are rising, it has become all too clear that as my good friend and former wing man dave petraeus said, what happens in the middle east

reed? >> well, thank you very much, mr. chairman. and, again, mr.anning, thank you for your service to date and your willingness to continue to serve. and given your perspectives in both the navy and the air force, can you just outline what you think the most significant priorities you would bring to the secretary of the army's office? >> absolutely. well, first, i think for the army readiness has to be the priority. it's what general milly said is his priority and i would agree with him if confirmed 100%, we need to make sure the soldiers we're sending into harm's way into combat are ready, fully trained, fully equipped. so, that would be the first priority. the second as a part of these efficiencies, is the end result has to be maximizing the combat power of the force structure that we have. i think that's a continue wall culling process to make sure you're looking across all of your force structure and keeping the ratio as strong in the tooth direction as you possibly can. third, something i took very seriously and spent a lot of time on in the a

reed: thank you. >> thank you mr. fanning. i want to thank you for your service and it is great to have you here. i want to ask you about the sides of the army and what your viewpoint is on that. as you know, we are drawing down the army on the 450,000 by 2018. as a result, we are seeing a huge number of involuntary situate -- separations. many have served the country admirably. and to get a pink slip after you have come from serving is appalling. but i want to ask, are you think we have the right size army and what about a reduction to 450? and before our committee in july, one said that 30% of army brigades are at acceptable levels of combat readiness and he noted that number should be between 60% and 70%. what do you view the biggest problem is and has it improved since july? readiness has not improved since july, it is still 's and whatf our bct the army would define as decisive action, ready for a big, large, land fight we might face against russia or north korea. ways to get in plan there, but there are impediments in pl
