with that, i have great gratitude to mr. smith. no longer in congress, but very much still on the forefront. >> thank you very much. as you mentioned, on the eve of the 34th remembrance of the massacre which the chinese government continues to deny that people buy, i want to thank you for your extraordinary leadership on behalf of the people of hong kong, the people of tibet, religious believers throughout the entirety of china and especially now the subject of a xi jinping genocide. more than one million people are in concentration camps. they are often be in families have been torn apart. her entire family, all the extended family, are all jailed. that's how they are doing it. i would point out that in 2018, marco rubio and i cochaired the china commission hearing. she had been arrested as part of this massive internment, torture. 60 plus women were all in one cell, they couldn't even sleep at night or during the day. they had to stand because there was no room. they took turns moving away for some of the more elderly to recline.

mr. smith, your response to. randy >> i think we need to continue -- we need to support social media companies when they take positive action. to randy's point, good practices. we need to hold those and encourage them to continue. time and time again, self regulation has been insufficient. it is not enough for facebook to come time and time again and say we are sorry for the harms brought by our platform to society. we need regulations. we need all governments, all parliaments, congress, canadian parliament and beyond to put rules and place, because this is not a problem for the united states or canada. it is a problem for the world. >> that is so important. it makes it so much more complicated, right? to understand these companies. they are global companies. orders to not matter. you could be on facebook, wherever, whenever all in realtime. but having a patchwork of regulations, laws accountability measures, is not enough. doctor stokes, i want to come to for some of the summation all comments here. your discuss

schiff, chairman of the intel committee, mr. smith, the chairman of the appropriations committee, mr. meeks and mr. sherman who are the ranking members behind mr. engel on the foreign affairs committee, and then this bamberger, , mrs. lofgren, ms. keating and ms. sherrill. all of them have experience or particular responsibilities in the intel and national security sphere. i thought this briefing was the white house personnel telling us their perspective. i think we knew the white house perspective. but we need to know is the intelligence perspective. so i am therefore urging the white house and to chief of staff to follow up on my request to make sure that we are briefed by the intelligence community directly so that we can get to the bottom of this. i'm sure that mr. schiff with the follow up on this to the intel committee as i urged him to deal. so without further discussion let me now yield to mr. schiff. >> thank you, steny. just what underscore a couple points. first, appreciate the white house inviting us to come in the briefed

my mom told mrs. smith that we lived a couple of hours up the road, and they would be driving back to see me often and they'd be -- i could come home quite often. i could come home for thanksgiving. i could come home whenever, you know, and that roslyn could come home with me anytime. so, mrs. smith and mrs. alexander sort of bonded that day, and they exchanged children. my mom became surrogate ros's mom, and ros's mom became sort of my mom, although it would take a long time before i got to west virginia to meet ros's mother. ros went home with me that very, very first break that we had, and she went home with me for all four years. my very best friend to this day is roslyn smith. she is actually living in greensboro. >> isn't that nice? dr. terry: and so, it's -- she retired here some ten years ago from new york, where she had been working in social work. so, she came back when she retired to greensboro. i often laugh at her and say, "why'd you come back to greensboro? did bennett have anything to do with

the first officer, as the video shows, is having a pretty normal conversation with mr. smith. mr. h all of his directives. provided his i.d. denied the situation of being the suspicious person. and, all of a sudden, you have another officer who comes on the scene and just takes over. he doesn't identify himself as an officer. doesn't say, hey, bhawhat's goi on? is this the person with the felony warrants? and let me correct that part because there were no felony warrants against anyone. the other gentleman had misdemeanor warrants for shoplifting, as well as traffic offenses. >> understood. whatever it was, it didn't belong on the record of your client, antonio smith. counselor, i get it. i get it. i understand. i wanted everybody else to understand it, as well. antonio, i know you forgive them. but i, also, know that you are still, very much, haunted by what happened. we will stay on the story, and i appreciate you having the bravery to come forward and talk to us about it. and it is a really big tribute to who you are, as a person, that you forgave the officers for what happened

starting to resemble business as usual while others will have to get used to a new normal we rejoin mr smith for part 2 of his chronicle of lockdown and reopening. alexander kyle and his team are resuming production spring is in the air and ice cream parlors are reopening so they hope orders might start to trickle in. until that happens they're doing repairs and maintenance having something to do helps lift the spirits. journalists aren't allowed to go on location to film reports they could spread the virus only a single camera person can go out interviews are done via video calls. we're building up inventory for now we assume that as the lockdown eases our customers will reactivate existing orders and start spending money again. and that's really the challenge was finding ways to involve the people who do the metalworking or the graphics in the new production process. saying ok today you're not welding you're sticking lettering on plexiglass screens and helping with packaging i'd say that was the biggest problem the hardest adjustment. but you know it's april the peak of the coronavirus cri

now, i recognize the ranking member, mr. smith, for five minutes. >> thank you, mr. chairman. as you discussed in your opening testimony, the cares act contains many targeted tax provisions that provided relief to individual families and businesses. for individuals and families, the cares act provided for a one-time payment sometimes called an economic impact payment, allowing for penalty-free distributions from the retirement accounts and provides an above the line deduction for up to $300 in charitable giving. for businesses, the cares act provided for the mid operating losses which allows businesses to receive tax refund provided, a relaxation of the interest rule and allowed the refund refunds known as cuts. they were designed to provide tax relief to families and businesses and we have the stories in our district as to the help that it's provided. i'd like to focus on the tax policy that's targeted the businesses. we're sometimes told that if the tax policy helps business, it cannot be positive for individuals, and workers. why is this not the case? can you give some exam

mr. adam smith was with us as well who is the chair of the house armed services committee. as you know they are marking up their bill so he is not here. mr. hoyer: let me recognize the chairman of the foreign affairs ommittee, mr. engel. mr. engel: thank you, steny. i think the words of mr. schiff is something that all of us left the white house thinking about. and scratching our heads. it makes no sense what so all for the president and the administration not to call out putin. i don't understand what it is with the president's infatuation with putin. if you just look at the facts and you say, ok, what happened? it comes into question the fact that a bounty was put on american troops. if that isn't something to go crazy about, then i don't know what is. but instead of the president apparently telling putin how upset we are and how we are not going to stand for this, we get nothing. we get perhaps the president knows something, perhaps he doesn't know anything, perhaps he reacted to searn way, perhaps he doesn't, or didn't. it just makes no sense at all. i think anybody, any

mr. smith: thank you, madam speaker. i rise in opposition to h.r. 1425. i stand here somewhat surprised that there is celebration of the successes of the so-called affordable care act. many of my constituents are offended by the mere name of the bill the affordable care act because they don't find it affordable. they found it quite unaffordable and i would argue that's why we are here today. with a fairly clever scheme at taking money from here and putting it there. which likely will still drive up the cost of health care. it's just a few different people paying for it. if we want true health care reform we should do that. but we haven't done that let's look for the bipartisan opportunities on drug costs as mentioned earlier. those have been advancing but those were all pushed aside for h.r. 3. h.r. 3 passed the house knowing that it wasn't going to go anywhere. i would argue that some people probably even voted yes on h.r. 3 because they knew the senate would not take it up and because they also know that it has major problems. but here we are today, aga

they're so young now, still so young, mrs. smith said. right now they're in love with law enforcement. i don't want to spoil trks not yet. -- spoil it, not yet. she pointed out that neither of her children were afraid of police. mrs. smith looked at her sons both just barely coming up to her waist, gripping cold water bottles. one day she'll have to give them the talk about police officers, she thought to herself. but not today. let's rise to the occasion so that janessa smith never has to give that heartbreaking talk to her boys in prince george's county, maryland. i urge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to focus on our common humanity and respect for the rule of law. there are examples of best practices in community policing that should be a guide nationwide. let us work together to guarantee equal justice under the law. and fulfill the promise of our constitution in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice and assure domestic tranquility. let this nation finally guarantee equal justice under the law which is carved

member mr. smith for five minutes. >> as you discuss in the t opening testimony with those targeted tax provisions in individualsid and families it is one time payment called the economic it impacts payment. for businesses it provided to allow businesses to receive tax refunds in that accelerated the refund of the alternative minimum tax credit is as to tax relief for families and businesses get all stories in the district for what it provided. and on the tax relief policy is targeted. sometimes we are told the tax policy it cannot be positive for individuals why is this not the case and can you give an example how that directly helps workers? >> so to some degree the business tax relief because a lot of these proposals put forth provides emphasis to individuals that was to help businesses maintain payroll maintain the connection between businesses and individuals so one example of this from thell cares act as the employer side payroll tax. and then to delay the payment of the tax or the payroll that

let me recognize the gentleman from nebraska, mr. smith to inquire. >> thank you, mr. chairman, and certainly thank you mr. ambassador for your presentation here today, even more importantly for your stellar service. the productivity of you and your team, i mean, i'm looking at my notes here, and there's so much that has been happening with trade between our country and other countries. we know a lot of folks said usmca could never be done, and it got done. it was very bipartisan in nature, not by accident, but by design, and i think that is really due to your efforts and the president's efforts of prioritizing the various issues in usmca that i think can really be a great trajectory on moving forward. i know that as we look at other trade agreements or possible trade agreements, i know that the eu has been unreasonable. but now we are finding that the u.k. is eager for trade agreements, and i think that's good news. i'm hoping that they will be more reasonable than the eu, especially when it comes to agriculture, as i represent one of the largest agriculture districts

let me recognize mr. smith to inquire. >> thank you mr. chairman. thank you, ambassador, for taking the time and being here today. it is good to be in the committee room. and ambassador you and president trump has worked tirelessly in my opinion to protect american agriculture which we hold dear in the midwest and southeast missouri. unfortunately no one could have predicted the way in which the china phase one agreement would be tested with the ink on the page barely dry. farmers and ranchers are suffering heavy losses due to the global coronavirus pandemic. supply chains disruptions and the loss of demand have put many u.s. producers on the ropes. producers need long-term security which is why the purchasing committee in the history china phase one agreement are so critical. these purchases will secure a foot hold for u.s. producers and the chinese market and ensure that our farmers and ranchers could compete abroad. it will also serve as a critical boost to our economy as we continue to deal with the impacts of the coronavirus pandemic on our cou

mr. smith. rep. smith: thank you, mr. chairman, and thank you to all of our witnesses. i certainly salute the workers on the frontlines of health care, especially those in nursing homes and facilities housing our elderly and the unfortunately,e, so exposed to covid, and i think we are -- we are learning a lot, you know, we are compiling data, and i hope that we can use that instructive lee and moving forward. i know that the hardship placed upon families and seniors themselves, as many have mentioned already here, i know, though, that the emotional distress, i hope, does not overcome --weigh or the impact, the emotional distress i hope is not worse than the covid itself. so as we do sort through all of the data and information moving forward, i know that video applications have been helpful. certainly they do not replace the family interaction and so forth, but i'm glad that video and telemedicine can be. i think part of our answer, including patients in place, i know i have been working s.h.time on the r.u. senior hospital ability act, so we can reduce andrisk facing s

you say sir, mr. smith or whatever. so it's an inherently pejorative, diminutive use of language. you kind of refer to this idea of whiteness in an op-ed that you wrote for the "l.a. times." in part it reads, quote, acting white in the true republican sense means treating all people with tact and humility. you don't grovel before anyone. you don't tear them down. your self-respect derives from honoring other people's. a republican society is in service to all citizens, so a leader in the people's conduct is meant to be mutually uplifting. corrupt, self-aggrandizing, selfish trump is the opposite of republican white acting. if whiteness were a brand, trump is doing it severe, lasting damage, unquote. president trump is damaging the brand of whiteness? was it really riding so high before he showed up? >> by the way, that republican you're reading is a small "r" republican. >> i was going to ask you that. thank you. >> -- of the republic and of the people. so if you consider that sense of whiteness, then indeed trump is doing it damage. and we see this. we see this seething resentmen

mrs. hyde-smith: i move that we suspend the quorum call, please. the presiding officer: without objection. mrs. hyde-smith: thank you. madam president, it is a shame the senate has been prevented the opportunity to discuss meaningful legislation to strengthen and improve our law enforcement system. the senate had an opportunity to implement public safety measures the american people believe are needed and the american people want most importantly, the senate was blocked from hard work toward helping bring the nation together. sadly, this was due to partisan politics by our democratic colleagues. it's disappointing that when given the chance to back up a lot of big talk about reform and change, our colleagues on the other side of the aisle simply walked away. i was under the impression we were all in agreement that the matters addressed in this legislation were at the very least worth debating. by refusing to even consider a debate, senate democrats lead the american people with irresponsible demands to defund the police and destruction of public pro

mr. chairman. >> senator smith? >> thank you mr. chair, and thank you chair powell for being with us today. nice to speak to you again. we are more than three months into the economic crisis caused by coronavirus and more than two months to the passage of the cares act, which provides urgent and emergency support for families and for businesses and for health care systems. i think we all know, and you acknowledged yourself in your opening statement that covid is not the great equalizer. in fact, it hits hardest those who are already struggling because they do not have a safe place to live, because of lack of access to health care, because of low wages and chronic blacky, and especially and brown and indigenous people and the systemic racism, and even their lives. i think that in this moment, it is essential congress takes up its challenge and fulfills the promise of america. talkt to have a chance to with you about this. i think there is a rising narrative we hear from some, including the president, that things are improving. we need to reopen the economy and before we know it we can all ge

mr. adam smith was with us as well who is the chair of the house armed services committee. as you know, they are marking up their bill so he is not here. now let me recognize the chairman of the foreign affairs committee, mr. engel. >> thank you, steny. i think the words of mr. schiff is something that all of us left the white house thinking about. and scratching our heads. it makes no sense what so all for the president and the administration not to call out putin. i don't understand what it is with the president's infatuation with putin. if he just looks at the facts and say, okay, what happened? i mean, it comes into question the fact that it was a bounty put on american troops. if that isn't something to go crazy about, i don't know what is. but instead of the president apparently telling putin how upset we are and how we're not going to -- >> okay, good tuesday morning. i'm ayman mohyeldin here in new york. as we come on the air this hour, we're following live breaking developments on multiple fronts, a lot of important stories playing out now. first of all, the suprem

that's a pretty sensational statement, mr. smith. why don't you back it up.ake your case. >> good morning, stuart. thanks for having me. i'm very happy that i didn't embarrass you to your viewers when you had me on a few weeks ago and you had me share my views about amazon and facebook -- stuart: i'll get to that, promise. go ahead. >> look, i think the recent meltup in the market here is telling us three things, right, that the fed is doing a good job, that the economy's going to get back to where it was pre-covid and sending a signal that i think president trump will get re-elected in the fall. stuart: the polls don't say that, though, gregg. >> no, they don't. but i think that, you know, as the economy reopens, people get back to work, people realize they're not losing as much in their 401(k)s and personal accounts as they were six or eight weeks ago, i think their confidence will return and covid will become something that's really in the rear view mirror and i think the markets will signal that he has a good shot at getting re-elected. stuart: i'm going

thank you, mr. smith. >> thank you very much.half minutes before the top of the hour and jillian joins us with news from new york. jillian: a refuses to seed. he says the election was plagued by quote intentional black voter suppression because many people were denied a fair chance to vote in predominantly black neighborhoods. blake tweeting in part saying quote with these examples of voter suppression, intimidation, delays and with 43,000 absentee ballots uncounted, i will not concede. heroic actions caught on camera, watch, as new jersey police officers save a 4-year-old boy from a burning apartment building. they caught him as he jumped out of a second story window before rescuing a 56-year-old woman. the police chief says he couldn't be prouder of the officers. a fox news alert now. you are taking a live look at the international space station where two astronauts are holding a space walk. chris cassidy and bob banken replacing old batteries as part of a power outgrade that began in 2017. it's expected to last up to seven hou

mr. smith: thank you, madam speaker. i rise in opposition to h.r. 1425. i stand here somewhat surprised that there is celebration of the successes of the so-called affordable care act. many of my constituents are offended by the mere name of the bill the affordable care act because they don't find it affordable. they found it quite unaffordable and i would argue that's why we are here today. with a fairly clever scheme at taking money from here and putting it there. which likely will still drive up the cost of health care. it's just a few different people paying for it. if we want true health care reform we should do that. but we haven't done that let's look for the bipartisan opportunities on drug costs as mentioned earlier. those have been advancing but those were all pushed aside for h.r. 3. h.r. 3 passed the house knowing that it wasn't going to go anywhere. i would argue that some people probably even voted yes on h.r. 3 because they knew the senate would not take it up and because they also know that it has major problems. but here we are today, aga

mr bradley. that is it. thanks to penny smith and martin lipton. and of course peter. next, it's the film review, but from all of us, it's goodnight. see you soon. hello, and welcome to the film review with me, mark kermode, rounding up the best movies available for viewing in the home. one of the first new movies to come to streaming services when lockdown began in march was vivarium, a surreal twilight zone—style thriller starring imogen poots and jesse eisenberg. well, now with the end of lockdown in sight, eisenberg is back in our front rooms in resistance, a strange and inspiring true—life drama about mime artist marcel marceau leading jewish orphans to safety during world war ii. they laugh despite describing himself as not good with children, the young marcel is nonetheless recruited to help care for the orphans whom the french resistance are sheltering in a remote castle. at first, marcel, a butcher's son with dreams of becoming an actor, wants only to work on his play. but through clowning and mime, he makes a connection with these children which seems to give

. >> then there was the question that mr. smith had. so we went to a rigorous procurement process in which -- and this actually gets into -- i didn't catch her name, i think that it was jenna -- the last caller had a question about the evaluation criteria that was used. so as part of the procurement process to select the highest ranked proposer, we went through a detailed evaluation with multiple criteria, not just the costs. i think that director heminger had referenced the 20 percentage points but we had a lot of different costs ranging -- excuse me -- we had a lot of different evaluation prices ranging from the system software component to the other components that i had mentioned in the -- in my presentation. and there were a lot of different scores across all different topics to come up with the final composite score in that process. so the evaluation committee, it consisted of people both in internal stakeholders as well as m.t.c. our internal stakeholders were comprised of different divisions throughout the organization represent
